witness the scenery by my eyes. I love to travel since I was very small. I have

made up my mind that I must continue my journey on my own. As I grow up, I have

planned some trips and learned a lot.

Travel helps me to be independent. For many people, they trend to travel by

groups, which is very convenient. The companies plan everything for them, and

they just need to follow the schedules. But as for me, I only enjoytraveling

freely, so I will scan a lot of information and select the useful message. I

learn the history and culture of the countries and get to know all kinds of

applications.

The most important thing of travel is to broaden my vision. When my friends

talk about the beautiful places from the textbook, I will tell them that I have

been there and can give them my opinion. The way I talk and the knowledge I

offer to them make me stand out and I am so proud of myself.

最近，我们上了有关网络的课文，里面讲到：网络可以造就人才，也可以将人推向无底深渊。确实，有些人能利用好网络资源，而有些人却沉迷于了网络之中，被网络这张大网网住了手脚，束缚了心灵，被网吧里那些看不见的陷阱埋葬了自己的花样年华……课文中还讲到：一个高中生在网吧玩游戏时不幸猝死，经医生鉴定，属于典型的由过度兴奋而引发心脏病的死亡。

如果你每天沉迷于网络之中，会导致视力严重下降，甚至视网膜脱落;如果你每天沉迷于网络之中，学习成绩会一落千丈……

如果你每天沉迷于网络之中，你首先该想想你的父母，你的父母为了生下你，不就是想要你好好的读书，将来有个好工作，过着美好的生活吗?可是你却辜负了你的父母，你父母想要你好好读书，天天向上，将来有个好成就，而你却每天泡在网吧，玩着电脑游戏，沉迷于网络之中，还伤害了自己，导致自己的学习成绩一落千丈;导致自己严重近视，甚至视网膜脱落;导致自己走上了歪路，你真是敬酒不吃吃罚酒啊!你又辜负了你的父母，又伤害了自己，所以你一定要改正过来，千万不要沉迷于网络之中，你还要告诫别人，因为网络会将人推向无底深渊。

“良药苦口利于病，忠言逆耳利于行。”这句话说得好，今天，我要用这句话告诫你们，要好好地把握自己，不要沉迷于网络之中。把握自己，就是把握好自己的人生航向;把握自己，就是给自己一片蔚蓝的晴空……

Yunnan is located about the southwest part of China. This place has beautiful mountains, and rivers and full with many local minority races. Because Yunan is high elevated, comparatively level expanse of land and a plateau, it has a overall warm weather, which is perfectly fit for human. It is close to the sun, therefore the UV level is high, and local people has comparatively darker skin.

Kunming is the capital of Yunan, even though it is not as prosperously commercialized as Shanghai, or as long historical background as Beijing, but the unique natural scenery and culture is highly recognized and appreciated by domestic and international tourists. You can see girls wear long, loosen, and colorful skirts on the street. The special food culture around the street is also a special feature of Kunming, there is nothing that you cannot find, just things that you cannot imagine.

Around Lijiang River, you can go to the bars around the old town, and the culture is very open-minded, girls around there are very friendly and dance with you. This place is a tourism hot spot, so the material expense is very high, no matter how much money you have, you can spend them all in one night!

I like to do all kinds of sports, in the morning, I will do some jogging

and in the evening, sometime I will go to the gym with my friends. My favorite

sport is playing tennis, tennis brings my life so much happiness, I can watch

the match while talking to my friends happily. To do the sport will improve my

health and make me catch up with the time.

When I was small, one day, when I went home after school, I felt bored and

opened the TV, then I saw the tennis match. Two beautiful girls were playing

intensively, the game was so excellent, I couldn’t move my eye away from the

match. From then on, I started to fall in love with tennis, I watched many

matches and got to know more about the game.

Tennis sport is the combination of power and asthetics. The tennis players

dress the beautiful clothes and their power make the ball fly quickly. The other

tennis players will return the tennis ball with their rightly power. The game is

so wonderful, if we watch the match alive.

There is no doubt that I am a big fan of the tennis sport. I find so much

fun from it, it enriches my life.

Everyone needs friendship. No one can sail the ocean of life single handed. We need help from, and also give help to, others. In the modern age, people attach more importance to relations and connections. A man of charisma has many friends. His power lies in his ability to give.

My best friend is my college classmate who is a humorous boy. He is also my deskmate .I did not notice he is a boy who is friendly and easy to get along with until he became my deskmate .OK,I must admit that I judge a book by its cover!

Although he isn’t handsome,he is a good man . I am a bad-tempered girl,but he is very gentleman ,and that is the reason why we never argued with each other .

Now we live in different cities and different universities.But that’s not the problem ,we still keep in touch .Of course ,distance can’t make our friendship weak! We often talk with each other about some interesting stories and our troubles by telephone or QQ. I am very happy to have such a friend like him!!

However ,not all people have good temper like him,and he is the only one among my friends that I meet.For example,my college roommates are a group of special girls.My administrator of the dormitory is a very goodness girl. She is also my first friend since I

entered university. When I feel lonely ,she always stays with me,which makes me so move.As life is full of strike and conflict, we need friends to support and help as out of difficulties. Our friends give us warnings against danger. True friends share not only joy but, more often than not, they share sorrow. There is a girl who is very enthusiastic to help others in my dormitory ,if you have troubles,she will try her best to help you whenever and wherever .there are also some girls ,they are a little introverted,so you never know how they think ,sometimes, when you say some words which you believe is normal,but they will really care about that,such things make me feel embarrassed. But there are more laughter when we are together in free time.

So it’s very important for everyone to handle with the friendship ,everyone has his own personality ,sometimes quarrel is normal,we should learn to forgive others,which is also a goodness. After all, friendship makes our life happy and harmonious.To many of my friends, I know what to treasure, what to tolerate and what to share, I will never forget my old friends and keep making new friends. The more friends you have, the more happiness you will possess.

We are the seem with you, even though we come from Zi Yang. Both of us love our hometown deeply.. However, compared with you, we seemingly posses more nativist sentiments（乡土情节）。 Because we listen to the folk songs, sing the tea songs and drink the selenium-rich tea（富硒茶）every day from childhood. From now on, I would also take some teas no matter where I go.

In the past, our anscestors were creating their own happiness on this land when they were in poor conditions, such as traffic inconvenience, economy undevelopment and information impediment.In recent times, our flagstones are sold to America, Canada and Japan; our teas and drugs have influencing many people’s daily-life; our money orages(金钱橘) have win universal praise, and, this year, Yan Chang Contium(延长集团) has invest 400 billions to our hometown—Shuang Qiao, wich would cause great change to it. The bright future let us love our hometon very much undoubtely. I don’t know what way I should use to introduce our hometown properly to you. I’m afraid of stainning the beaty of it because of my valgurism and superficiality, so that it may give you a bad impression.

Therefore, I introduce it to you today just through a narrow point of view. I hope that we could share the beaty and the joy of it together.

And, please see the following video which describe the culture of our hometown objectively and really through a comparative broad view.

In our country .There are a lot of holidays such as Spring festival , Childrens day and May day. All the people in China like these holidays very much.

Spring festival is a popular holiday in china. It is in January or February. People eat a lot of delicious food and go shopping. They usually spend time with their family and friends.My favourite holiday is Childrens day. It is on the first of June. Children usually have parties at school, go to the park and go to the cinema. I didnt go to the park and go to the cinema last year. I had parties at school with my family. We were very happy.

My father and grandpas favourite holiday is May day. It is on the first of May. People usually have a long holiday. They meet friends and relatives. They go to parks and beaches. But my father and grandpa planted trees last May day. They were very tired but happy!

We all like these holidays. On the days, we had a good time.

I have a good friend, when I was five years old, I met her, she is my

neighbor, we became friends and play together all the time. Last week, my friend

took part in the female basketball match, she is good at basketball, so I

encouraged her to join our school team. The team played so well that they came

to the final yesterday, the match was so excellent, at last, my friend’s team

won the first place, I feel so happy, I plan to buy her a present and

congratulate her. I feel so proud of her, she inspires me, too. We give each

other encourage to move on. We will be good friends forever.

I like many animals, but my favorite is the giant panda. Giant pandas are rare animals in China, their hometown in sichuan province.

Giant panda looks interesting, chubby, plump and cute. Its head and body are white, only the rim of the eye, ear, and the shoulder is dark brown. Especially that a pair of black rim of the eye, long in white face, like wearing a pair of sunglasses, plus the clumsiness and go up and look in all directions, appear very lovely.

Pandas in zoos, through training the breeder uncles and aunts, also many performance! Such as drilling circle, upright, upside down, or cartwheel and pushing the car. I most like to see the giant panda says. It huddled in her chubby body, like a big ball rolling, funny, very fun. Pandas dont like the cat that greediness eat fish meat, dont eat the delicious fruit, like a monkey pandas like eating bamboo leaves and shoots.

I love pandas, it can be seen everywhere in my little world. My pencil-box. The head of a bed, desk, plastered with pictures of giant pandas. In art class, if the teacher asked the paint free proposition, I often draw a panda. These, may all is because I am too fond of pandas!

"We wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas…"Have you heard that song? Yup! Its Christmas time! This Christmas, I stayed with my "host family"1. It was an amazing experience to see how a typical American family would celebrate the biggest western festival of the year.

Christmas, like our Spring Festival, has a meaning in itself. Christmas Day, which is on December 25, is the birthday of Jesus Christ--the son of God. Thats why it is called Christmas. On that day, Christians would get together with their families to celebrate the birthday of Jesus. But nowadays, the religious meaning of Christmas has become less emphasized. To many families, it is just a time of family reunion and the ever-exciting present-giving.

Our school had been on winter vacation since December 11. I stayed at my friend, Stephen Stapczynskis house--his family was my "host family". Although Christmas was still more than ten days ahead, the festive spirit had already been teeming everywhere. The Christmas tree had already been set up, and on every windowsill, there were Christmas lights. On the first day I arrived at their house, Stephen and I helped Mrs. Stapczynski put decorations on the Christmas tree. The tree looked so nice with all the lights on and the beautiful ornaments dangling from its branches.

As Christmas came closer, the whole neighborhood had made preparations too. Some people would hold parties at their houses, inviting all their neighbors to come. So every night, if you went out, you would see a long line of cars parked in front of some house--a partys on!

Whats more, the Christmas decorations that some people put on their windows and in gardens were just amazing. On one night, we went out in our car for a "tour of lights". There was one street that was so famous for its lights that it got its way into the local paper. We had a hard time finding the well-hidden street, but it turned out to be worth the effort. Lights shone brightly in front of nearly every house, on trees, bushes, doors, windows…everywhere, taking different shapes, making it seem almost like daytime. Huge inflatable figures in the front gardens were waving to us: there were Santa Clauses2, of course, chuckling merrily away; and there were also other Christmas figures, like Rudolph3--the red-nosed reindeer--with his red nose gleaming ever so brightly; even Bart Simpson--a character in the famous comedy The Simpsons--had joined the jolly party, wearing a Santas hat. The street set off a lot of "ooh"s and "aah"s inside the car.4 When we left, there was a line of cars in the street, all there to see the lights.

Whenever the bells in class, I am looking forward to the coming of this class, when the teacher came in holding a book, I will smile one by one. Holding the joyful mood, carefully into the most profound words, this is my favorite - language lesson.

The bell rang, slowly campuses around the breath of quiet. Chinese teacher came into the class holding the book, she bring elegant into the classroom, silent to my dry heart, get a little drizzle of literature. Chew the extensive and profound, roaming in the endless endless sea of learning, thought is the wind, the knowledge is the sail, with me in the language of the ocean wave by tao, braving the. Meng-gua in the thought of "do as you would be done by" rende; Mr Consider five willow "tori picking, carefree and see nanshan." The quiet. Are carried into poetry, I saw the heroism in the fight against time; The prose of xu zhimo, I traveled to the beauty of Cambridge. The ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign literature, are hidden in the words of the world.

Every Chinese class, like the sun, rain, moisten my heart the knowledge tree. Language areas, account for a great corner in my heart, every time in Chinese classes, feel and diligence, I want to follow a closed practice calligraphy, wang xizhis determination and perseverance, explore literary world, to embrace the endless knowledge, think about the long history of text.

"Not learn poems, beyond words." I want to learn Chinese well, learn, and peoples response to advance and retreat, learning attitude, in the knowledge of the flood, looking for the standpoint of right from wrong. Chinese classes on my deep feeling, is really good.

每当上课的钟声响起，我都期待着这堂课的来临，当手持卷书的老师走了进来，我便笑颜逐开。抱着最欢喜的心情，认真的投入最深远的文字境界，这就是令我最喜爱的—语文课。

钟声缓缓响起，校园里萦绕着肃静的气息。语文老师抱着书册走进了班级，她把书香带进了死寂的教室，令我干涸的心灵，得到一丝文学的细雨。细细咀嚼文字的博大精深，徜徉在无垠无尽的学识之海上，思想是风、知识是帆，带着我在语文的海洋上追波逐涛、乘风破浪。遥想至圣先师“己所不欲，勿施于人”的仁德;细 思五柳先生“采菊东篱下，悠然见南山。”的恬静。走入余光中的诗集，我看见那与时间抗衡的豪气;潜入徐志摩的散文里，我游历了康桥的美景。古今中外的文学，都潜藏在文字的天地里。

每次的语文课，都像朝阳、雨露，滋润我心中那株知识树。语文的领域，在我心中占了极大的一隅，每次上语文课，都感觉自己又精进些，我要效法王羲之闭门苦练书法的决心和毅力，仔细探究文学的天地，拥抱那无边无尽的智识，思索广大悠久的文字历史。

“不学诗，无以言。”我要好好地学习语文、学习与人的应对进退、学习为人处事的道理，在知识的洪水中，寻找明辨是非的立足点。我深深的感觉上语文课，真好。
