Topic one：Environment Protection（环境保护）

Water Pollution

With the development of industry, water pollution is becoming more serious now. The polluted water not only kills fish, it is also harmful to our health. Many people get sick because they drink the polluted water. In some rivers the water is so dirty that they can even kill plants.

We should fight against the pollution. We should stop using harmful things. I wish it is not a dream that in the near future we can have clean rivers again.

Environment Protection

Nowadays, peoples life has changed a lot with the development of modern technology and economy, which has put lots of negative effects on the environment.

Why this? Because, firstly, some factories are pouring wastes into rivers, lakes, seas and so forth; secondly, because of human activities, a great number of plants and animals are losing their lives; thirdly, using modern machines and chemicals is bad for the environment. Besides these, there are a lot of human activities which have done or are doing harm to our surroundings.

For this, I think, first, our government should make drastic measures to regulate human activities; second, we human beings should take pains-taking work to stop ourselves destroying the environment and try our best to protect our living space more.

导语：近年来，国内食品安全问题频频发生。为此，国产食品一度陷入了国民信任危机，为保障饮食安全，民众纷纷呼吁建立完善的食品添加剂使用标准。下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理有关食品安全的作文写作素材，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

1、2010年7月5日报道有调查发现，美国的麦乐鸡竟然含有橡胶化学成分“聚二甲基硅氧烷”。美国麦当劳发言人称，在麦乐鸡中加入聚二甲基硅氧烷，是基于安全理由，用以防止炸鸡块的食油起泡。据世界卫生组织的动物测验显示，这种物质对人体无害。

2、2009年11月7日，男子马赛在北京西单大悦城豆捞坊餐厅喝了一罐雪碧，口吐大量汞珠。警方调查发现，马赛情人刘晓静与保安员高星原合谋，多次向马赛投毒，试图其杀害，而马赛在明知被人投毒后，仍向可口可乐公司索赔，此事件被称为“雪碧汞毒门”。

3、2009年2月27日，“咯咯哒”问题鸡蛋所用饲料厂的法人代表获刑，该厂于08年9月两次向饲料中加入三聚氰胺。在08年10月，在香港对从内地进口的鸡蛋中检测出三聚氰胺后，引起了广泛关注，所以问题饲料被查出，但鸡蛋价格出现下跌。

4、2008年10月，四川广元柑橘生产中发生蛆虫疫情爆发。这次柑橘疫情导致柑橘价格的大幅下跌，并且出现严重的滞销状况。政府出资收购柑橘，并进行深埋、消毒处理，以控制疫情的发展。

5、2008年8月，人造“新鲜红枣”流入乌鲁木齐市场。主要经过两道工序，铁锅里放进酱油，使青枣变成红色，并保持光泽。再次放进加入大量糖精钠和甜蜜素的水池中浸泡，使其口感泛甜。过量食用会造成血小板减少，酿成急性大出血等直接身体危害。

6、2006年11月12日，由河北某禽蛋加工厂生产的一些“红心咸鸭蛋”在北京被检测出含有致癌物质苏丹红。部分河北农户用添加了工业染料苏丹红的饲料喂养鸭子，导致蛋黄内含有苏丹红，以致全北京市范围内停售河北产“红心”咸鸭蛋。

7、自2006年9月初开始，上海市发生多起因食用猪内脏、猪肉导致的疑似瘦肉精食物中毒事故。这批来自浙江海盐县瘦肉精超标猪肉和内脏共导致上海9个区336人次中毒。

热点内涵第一层

食品数量安全：即一个国家或地区能够生产民族基本生存所需的膳食需要。要求人们既能买得到又能买得起生存生活所需要的基本食品。

第二层

食品质量安全：指提供的食品在营养，卫生方面满足和保障人群的健康需要，食品质量安全涉及食物的污染、是否有毒，添加剂是否违规超标、标签是否规范等问题，需要在食品受到污染界限之前采取措施，预防食品的污染和遭遇主要危害因素侵袭。

第三层

食品可持续安全：这是从发展角度要求食品的获取需要注重生态环境的良好保护和资源利用的可持续。

【应对措施】

净化市场源头

重点应对人民每天需食用的粮食作物、蔬菜、水果、饮用水等严加控管，进行规范型、创新型种植、生产结构及生产保障体系调整。市场上的食品应由大型的、符合质量要求的、国家认可的种植专业户、集团，生产厂家的食品占绝大部分，对落后的、零星的、质量无保障的种植户、生产小厂适时淘汰，或成无人问津而自灭。净化市场源头是重点，这一步抓好了，购者放心。

建立市场级检测体系

即在中、大型超市、农贸市场设置检测仪器、提供检测方法，随时对有关食品主要质量参数进行检测，可由市场专职检测人员或人民群众开展抽检。国家应投入一定费用开展快速检测方法的研究，供市场快速确认质量。如此，不合格产品难以上市，也不敢上市，杜绝不合格产品的上市。

增加媒体透明度

网络、电视台、报纸应有计划、有针对性适时报导食品检测结果，对优质、合格产品进行表彰，引来认购者，使其受益，不合格者曝光，让其下架或受冷落，令其整改或停产，多方面、全方位展开关注，持之以恒。

乡村游记(A TRIP TO the COUNTRY)

One Sunday my mother (Mother) had (made) me take my little young brother to the a trip to the country. She bade me take good care of him.

While we were walking along the road, the sun was shining brightly and the breeze was blowing gently. We saw the beautiful flowers smile (smiling) at us and heard the birds sing (singing) their sweet songs on the trees. The scenery was indeed very pretty (beautiful).

When we felt tired, we returned home. We saw Mother (our mother) wait (waiting) for us at the door.

有一个星期日，我母亲叫我带小弟弟去乡村游历。她吩咐我要好好照料他。

当我们沿着道路行走的时候，太阳灿烂地照耀着，微风轻轻地吹着。我们看见美丽的花儿对我们微笑着，并听见鸟儿在树上唱着悦耳的歌曲，风景实十分美丽。

当我们感觉到疲倦的时候，我们就回家了。我们看见母样正在门口等候我们。

我住在大学里面，大学生骑自行车的需求特别大，所以，在经常看到在自行车密集的区域会有不少整整齐齐的小红车、小蓝车、小黄车;他们都是各式各样的共享自行车，来自摩拜、ofo、小鸣、小蓝等等公司。

但近来，这样的漂亮、齐整、有标识性的自行车就越来越少能见到了。偶尔，又会在离宿舍较远的小树林边、人迹罕至的实验楼背后、偏远的厕所旁边，发现里面居然藏着几辆小黄车或小红车。

那时我就在想了，这种共享自行车，要破坏芯片、据为己有，太容易了;技术上怎么监测并实时制止?车子就放在路边，就算我弄坏它，只要不抓现行谁又能奈我何?道德成本也是成本，造成的损耗怎么分摊?利润又如此之薄，它怎么赢利?

许多社会新闻也在辅证着我的这些忧虑。今天，我看了一篇刷屏的《共享单车，真是一面很好的国民照妖镜》，里面实拍了对共享自行车花样繁多的破坏与毁损;我不由得一声长叹：“我向来不惮于以最大的恶意揣测中国人”，但是，仍然赶不上这些人的想象力：谁能想到，还有人把针插在共享自行车的坐椅上?

▍一

也许是现在的投资环境太美妙了，共享自行车的创业公司仍然处于蜜月期当中。2017 年才过了不到两个月，摩拜就宣布了 2.15 亿美元融资，接着又有报道称ofo正在准备新一轮1.5 亿美元投资，估值达到了10亿美元。在可预见的一段时间里，这些公司仍有大量的钱可以烧。

但如何能盈利，并不容乐观。而其中首先要面对的，就是作为公共自行车的损坏、偷盗与故意破坏等问题。

公用物品，必然有损耗。之前，我想象的是，共享自行车有一部分是无可避免的常规损坏，例如，日晒雨淋，折旧，偶尔的小型事故。一部分是对人性的合理恶估，包括极低比率的偷盗或损毁。就像开架超市一样，这可预估的，可以预先打入成本估算当中。

可现实却非如此。结合之前媒体的种种报道，才明白这个社会的恶毒含量远远高于可预测值。比如说，把共享自行车扛回家或锁进楼道里，把共享车放进汽车后尾箱开到另一城市使用，把它加两把锁收归自己独享，把它粉刷了另一种颜色、加上儿童坐椅专用。

又比如，把共享自行车砸烂的，拆掉车头、坐椅、脚踏的，把轮子卸掉的，把车子扔在河里的，把车子挂树上的，把几十上百辆共享车堆在废墟里无法使用的。

还有人把坐椅上插上针，谁用就坑谁;有的大爷大妈们直接把共享车用绳子围起来，每次使用就交一块钱给他们……至于把二维码刮掉，把芯片损坏，把号牌拆了，简直就不值一提了。

我不得不认为，共享自行车在中国的推广，非常不合时宜。之所以超市、书店可以开架，是因为其选购商品全程处于监控之下，还有一个出入门的警铃，商品的单件价值也相对不高;一旦偷东西，罪责十分鲜明。因此风险可控。而自行车，整个城市天高任鸟飞，高使用率才能分摊自行车的成本;一旦严格管理，限定使用区域，共享自行车就失去了存在的意义。为了防止这些道德风险，需要极高的管理水平，精确的控制;而一旦投入精力去精准管理了，这个成本就太高了。

在没有设计出有效管理的技术手段之前，这种共享带给社会的收益会远远小于其投入。

它所照出的这些妖孽，很多已经脱离了“没公德”的范畴了，一部分人相当于盗窃，另一部分人则是属于破坏公共财物。只不过金额大小问题而已。但在“共享”这面旗帜下，违法成本极低。共享共享，我也有份享用啊;我拿走了一辆自行车而己，难道你还能把我抓起来?隔壁的张三这样干，李四也这样干，他们都没事，你凭什么说我?

这种没有监管，全靠每个人自觉的“共享经济”，不啻于把小鱼干摆在猫的面前，却禁止它吃。广州这样的大城市，一千七百万人，只需十万分之一的人“素质低”，那么，共享就会失败。

不要考验人性。凡是考验人性的产品，很快都会笑不出来了。

▍二

这二十多年来，素质低、没有公德心这种负面评价，就如中国人的附骨之蛆一样，一时半会儿很难摆脱。破坏共享自行车这样的公共财物如此，插队、随地吐痰、闯红灯、乱穿马路、乱涂乱画、随地大小便、欺凌服务人员等等，也如此;现在有了网络，由这些不守小道德引起的小纠纷，更是经常演变成“素质大讨论”，最后变成嘲讽的大合唱。

中国人的“素质”当然不是这二三十年来才突然变差的。只不过以前在封闭与极端贫穷的时候，这些细枝末节不值得去计较;如今富裕了，公共空间多了，有了对比，方才觉得格外地刺目。

其实我很怕用“素质论”这样的词。这意味着，这赋予了一些人拥有裁决权，它有权力把人遴选为“高素质的”与“低素质的”;同时，可以分配给“低素质者”更少的权利，因为他不配享有。这里就会变成这个裁决权在谁手里，他如何分配权利问题了。

但实际上，大量的所谓“低素质者”，并不是与生俱来的，而是社会环境鼓励与怂恿的结果，是无规则、无是非、无法律的结果;他们是社会培养出来的。扭转这些人的“素质”，甚至不需要长期的教育，只要严格地按照法律法规执行，结结实实地让破坏公共道德的人付了代价，他们的逆毛马上会顺过来，服服帖帖了。

几乎我们日常看到的各种各样的没有公德心的“缺德事”，肇始者理直气壮，无不是因为这两个原因：一，“很多人都这么做”，集体当中没有是非;二，做的人基本上不受惩罚，无需付出代价。

就像前两天，有清洁工刮花了别人的豪车还满地撒泼，说没钱，最后该赔几千的只赔了500元，还有网友批评这司机不仁慈，本不该拿赔偿。——当然，你也可以说这位撒泼的女性“素质低”，但这种“素质低”，是特定环境下理性选择的结果：不守交通规则、颠倒是非是有效的，还可以降低犯错成本。这一定律常年发挥作用，行人乱穿马路，“凑齐七个就一起闯红灯”，电动车、自行车随意穿插变道闯红灯，因为行人再不守交通规则汽车也不敢撞过来啊。而敢闯红灯的司机绝对没有那么多。真的因为开车者素质高吗?不，因为电子眼看得牢、罚得重，一旦出了事故更是罚到倾家荡产，把牢底坐穿。

到了最后，那些在路边等绿灯、守规则的行人，看着一拔又一拔的闯红灯的人都过了马路了，免不了怀疑自己是不是搞错了。这样的情况只要发生多次，很自然就学会闯红灯了。

社会公德这种事，是靠遵守出来的，是靠判别是非、处理公正培养出来的，而不是靠解散“低素质”人群、天降“高素质”人群得来的。

在不同的场景之下，高素质与低素质是有可能转换的。当然，最好的那一部分自律的人能在任何情形之下都慎独;但不可否认，更多的人的行为是与周遭环境的反应是一致的。就像勒庞在《乌合之众》里说的一样，“在孤立的情况下，他可能是个有教养的人，但在一个群体当中，他是一个野蛮人，也是一个行为受本能支配的动物。”

这种身份切换，与中国社会普遍存在的“从众心理”与“法不责众”的心态密切相关。因为个人的行为权责非常明确;而集体中责任是分散的，不明确的，所以可以恣意地不负责。一旦群体中的人犯了错，会被分摊到群体中的所有人身上;所有人都有责任，也就等于所有人都没有责任。

就如共享自行车的损毁，只要没抓现行，每一个个人的责任，被化解到成千上万个城市居民手中了。当他加入了没有责任感的群体，并预判自己不会受到惩罚时，便就完全地释放了自己野蛮与破坏性的本能。

如果不给“法不责众”以机会，来一个罚一个，来一双罚一双，把每个人从“群体”当中剥离出来，每个人都必须独立地为自己行为负责，实际上，这些基于“闯红灯”而临时结成的“违规共同体”，便不攻自灭。

(昨天，一位月入过万的研究生毕业的白领，把共享车刷上漆、安上坐椅，被拘留14天。)

并不是说西方发达国家的人天然就“素质高”，人家只不过不喜欢集体生活与集体主义，也难享受到集体氛围带来的催眠一样的野性唤起而已。另一方面，人家对违反社会公德的行为，该罚就罚，毫不手软，大大地提高了干缺德事的风险。

共享经济这种事，不能指望全民忽然提高素质;只能建立起良好有效的追踪与惩罚机制，只要盗用与损毁的，都能得到严厉追究甚至法律制裁，那么，还用担心使用者素质不高吗?

Every May in Chinese lunar calendar is Dragon Boat Festival, do you know anything about it? Let me speak for you.

Once upon a time, there was a patriotic poet Qu Yuan, once he went to Beijing to go to work, see a decline of state variable, then vote Miluo River to commit suicide. Before he died, he wrote a poem.

我们的身体健康与食品安全息息相关，但现在我们却面临越来越多的食品问题如染色馒头、毒奶粉。请用英语写一篇100-120词的短文，简要分析食品问题形成的原因并提出相应的解决措施。

染色馒头the industrial dye of steamed bun 毒奶粉the notorious milk powder

It is universally acknowledged that the safety of food is closely related to our health. As the famous saying goes, “we are what we eat.” However, things often go contrary to our wishes since we are faced with a series of food safety problems at present, ranging from the industrial dye of steamed bun to the notorious milk powder.

There are several reasons for this severe problem. First and foremost, many manufactures produce fake food of poor quality in order to get higher profits. In addition, the relevant laws and regulations are imperfect and even ineffective. Last but not least, the public especially customers from poor families, are not alert enough to the safety of food.

In view of the seriousness of the problem, effective measures must be taken to improve the situation. Firstly, it is essential that relevant laws and regulations on food safety should be enforced. Secondly, the relevant department should attach more importance to supervising监督 the manufacturers. Also, the public should be trained to be alert to food quality, believing our efforts will make an enormous difference. Only by taking these actions can the problem be coped with successfully in the nearest future.

【参考译文】

人们普遍认为食品的安全与我们的健康息息相关。常言道，“食物塑造了我们”，然而，事情往往违背我们的愿望，因为我们面临着一系列的食品安全问题，目前，从工业染料馒头臭名昭著的奶粉。

这个严重的问题有几个原因。首先，许多制造商生产劣质食品以获得更高的利润。此外，相关法律法规不完善甚至失效。最后但并非最不重要的是，公众尤其是来自贫困家庭的顾客，对食物的安全不够警觉。

考虑到问题的严重性，必须采取有效的措施来改善局势。首先，必须加强有关食品安全的法律法规。其次，相关部门应重视监督监督厂家。此外，市民应接受培训，以警惕食品质量，相信我们的努力将产生巨大的差异。只有采取这些行动，才能成功地解决问题，在最近的未来。

I went to watch the movie Wolf warriors 2 today

I went to watch the movie Wolf warriors 2 today as I heard it was a big hit

in China. I am not the biggest fan of WuJing(the director and leading role of

the movie), but this movie he direct really impressed me. I have watched Wolf

Warrior which I would consider as a good movie, but II is way much better. It is

the first Chinese movie that is built on the context of African country and

actually shot in South Africa, bearing the risk of suffering the disturbance on

the set. The way the plot unfolds and the courage and patriotism is delivered to

its audience makes it more than a simple action movie. Love this movie and will

go for it a second time!

我今天去看了电影战狼2

当今天听到《战狼2》轰动了中国时，我就去看了这部电影。我不是吴京(这部电影的导演和主演)的死粉丝，但是他导演的这部战狼2真的令我印象深刻。我之前看过战狼，并且我认为这是不好电影，但是第二部简直是要好太多了。这是首部以非洲国家为背景的中国电影。整个剧组实际上冒着在片场遭遇动荡的风险在南非进行拍摄。情节的展开方式，以及片中体现出的勇气和爱国情怀都传递给了观众，这部电影不仅仅是一部简单的动作片。我爱这部电影，我决定将看第二遍!

Spring Festival is the most important festival for Chinese people. The Spring Festival is very exciting, especially on the eve of the Spring Festival.

春节对于中国人来说是最重要的节日。在每年的春节都让人兴高采烈，尤其是大年三十那晚，更是达到了高潮。

The Spring Festival lasts for 15 days, there would be starting on the first day, to the end of the January 15 Lantern Festival.it is the busiest time of the year for Chinese people. The arrangements they have to make for family reunions， buying necessities and preparing food keeps them busy throughout the holiday. Many of them travel back home and meet friends over dinner and drinks. The celebrations include decorating the house and setting off fireworks.But we are talking about a tradition that seems to be fading.

春节一共有15天，从大年初一开始，到元月十五元宵节这一天结束。在这段比较长的时间是中国人最忙的时候，他们为家庭聚会作安排，采购年货，准备丰盛的食物，以至于整个春节假期都忙忙碌碌的。许多人在春季期间都要回老家过年，跟朋友碰碰头，聚个餐。庆祝春节也包括大扫除和放烟火。但是我们现在要谈的是越来越淡的年味。

Spring Festival， as it is celebrated today， has undergone many changes， thanks to the country‘s economic development and globalization.

现在的春节已经因为我国经济的发展和全球化的影响而改变了很多。

Yet no Spring Festival is complete without food. People could not get good food whenever they desired in earlier times， something that does not apply to society today. More often than not， people faced the risk of famine. The best time for people to celebrate was when food was available in plenty， and that was possible in spring， or the beginning of the lunar new year. That was the main reason why Spring Festival acquired such great importance among Chinese people.

但是没有哪个春节是完全离得开“吃”的。从前，不论人们提前多久想要买年货，总是不能如愿，而现在早已今非昔比。过去常常还要闹饥荒。人们最好的庆祝时间就是他们能得到食物丰盛的时候，也就是春天或是元月初的那段时间。那也是为什么春节对于中国人如此重要的主要原因。

But three decades of economic growth has ensured that people in China， except for those who are still poor， can enjoy a good meal whenever they want. Such has been the change in people‘s fortune that some have to be treated for obesity and other health problems associated with excessive eating.

但是三十年来的经济发展已经让中国人，除了那些仍然穷苦的人以外，随时都能享受美食。这得益于人民财富的增长，但是后者也导致一些人吃得太多而受到肥胖威胁和健康问题。

In the past， celebrations were limited to events like song-and-dance duets in North China， dragon/lion dances in South China and fireworks， which required the joint efforts of the entire community. But economic development and urbanization seems to have weakened the social links among people. Many， especially those living in cities， are not interested in celebrating the festival with people they hardly know.

在过去，庆祝春节还只停留在北方的二人转和南方的舞龙舞狮等形式。那些庆祝活动往往需要许多人合力才能办得起来。但是经济的发展和国际化程度的提升似乎已经将这种社会联系弱化了。许多人，特别是城市居民，不太愿意与不相识的人一起共度春节。

Many customs associated with Spring Festival have changed， too. In the past， people used to visit relatives and friends with gifts and lots of good wishes. Today， many people， especially the youth， use their cell phones or the Internet to send their good wishes and even "gifts" to their relatives and friends. Some may say this a sign that people have become less caring about their near and dear ones， but we should see this development as a time- and energy-saving exercise granted by the information age.

与春节相关的许多习俗也被改变了。在过去，人们常常会带着礼物走亲访友，互道祝福。今天许多人，特别是年轻人，用手机或是网络向亲朋好友发去“礼物”和祝福。有些人或许会说，这说明人们已经没有那么关心至爱亲朋了，但是我们应该把这种变化看作信息化时代省钱省力的好办法。

In recent times， many people have started praying for a career promotion or more money instead of invoking God or the Buddha for a healthy and long life and the welfare of their family. But the number of such people is decreasing now， which shows that people are becoming more reasonable.

最近几年，许多人开始祈祷事业高升，财源滚滚，而不是求神拜佛，他们身体健康，长命百岁，家庭美满。但是这样的人数现在正在减少，说明人们开始变得更加理性。

Panda is familiar by more and more people as the development of Internet. Now people can see the live show from the Internet. These lovely angels are favored by the fans from all over the world. What they do in the daily life makes people laugh out loudly. No one can resist the charm from these angels. But it is known to all that panda is dying out, because it is not easy for them to get birth to the new babies. What’s more, people damage the environment, which makes panda lose their home. We can do small things to protect them. When we go to the zoo, we should not throw away the rubbish and keep quiet, in the purpose of not to disturb these lovely creature. We love panda, it is our duty to protect them from dying out.

★ 范文Less Pressure, Better Life

Hello, boys and girls!

Pressure is a serious problem in today’s world. Students in our class are under too much pressure. Some students can’t get on well with their classmates, while others may worry about their exams.

I’m always under pressure, too. My parents want me to be the top student in class. So they send me to all kinds of after-classes at weekends.

Last Monday evening, I had a talk with my mother. I told her I was not lazy. I really felt tired. I needed time to relax. My mother agreed with me at last. So I think a conversation with parents is necessary to solve the problem.

That’s all. Thank you!

我也总在压力下，我父母想让我成为班上最好的学生。所以他们周末送我去各种各样的课后补习班。

上星期一晚上，我和妈妈谈了一次。我告诉她我不懒。我真的感到累了。我需要时间放松。我母亲终于同意了我的意见。因此，我认为与父母的谈话是必要的，以解决这个问题。

就是这些。谢谢您!

How long has it been since you had the feeling of being moved ? Do you feel grateful when you taste the delicious food your mother prepares for you ? On Teacher’s Day, do you say “Thank you teachers” from the bottom of your heart, or just do it as others do ?

In the West, there is Thanksgiving Day. People invented this festival to be grateful for what they gained, because no one could be happy or successful without the help from others. Though our country don’t have Thanksgiving Day, we should be grateful hourly.

If the grateful full of your heart ,you will be happy everyday. Life’s happiness is to be convinced we are loved. A telephone from parents, a criticism from teacher, a exhortation from friend, a competition from opponent and so on. All this are the foundation of mature for us.

We must learn to be grateful, otherwise , we will be apathetic, can’t notice the love from others. Only have the heart of be grateful, we can understand how to love others and how to repay our society.

The Dragon Boat Festival, also called Double FifthFestival, is celebrated

on May 5th on lunarcalendar.It is a folk festival widely spread with ahistory of

over 2,000 years, and is one of the mostimportant Chinese festivals as well.

There are variouscelebrating activities on that day, among which the customs of

eating rice dumplings anddragon boat racing are quite important.There are many

legends on the origin of the DragonBoat Festival.Some people think it is to

commemorate the poet Qu Yuan, while others say it isto be in honour of Wu Zi_u,

a famous general during the Warring States period. However, thelegend of Qu Yuan

spreads most widely. People appreciate highly the noble sentiment andprominent

talent of this patriotic poet and are very sympathetic with the ending that

hecommitted suicide by drowning himself in a river.

端午节(the Dragon Boat Festival)，又称重五节，于每年农历五月初五庆祝。

这是广泛流传2000多年的民间节日，也是中国最重要的节日之一。端午节当天举行各种庆祝活动，吃粽子和赛龙舟(dragon boat

racing)是其中的重要习俗。关于端午节的起源，有很多传说。一部分人认为端午节是为了纪念诗人屈原，另一部分人则认为是为了纪念战国时期的著名将领伍子胥。然而，屈原的传说流传最广。人们非常欣赏这位爱国诗人的高尚情操和出众才华，更对他投江自尽的结局深表同情。

Ambition is the decision one makes and the resolution with which he carries out that decision. It provides us with the required driving force to accomplish any undertakings in our life. Just as Joseph Epstein, a famous American writer put it, “And as we decide and choose, so are our lives formed.” Indeed, once we make up our minds to choose to do something, then our life becomes meaningful and specifically orientated. This notion of life, as far as I observe, is closest to truth and does apply to almost all aspects of life.

First things first, ambition renders us a sense of mission. No matter what decision you make you have to be responsible for your choice. Your choice procures you a sense of orientation, or more specially a sense of mission. And only a strong mission may enable one to accomplish greatness. Caesar of the ancient Roman Empire was urged by his ambition “I came, I saw, I conquered.” And became an unrivaled empire builder in the history of Rome. John Milton, stimulated always by his ambition that aimed at writing some “mighty lines” which England would unwillingly forget, had in due time secured his position as the second Shakespeare in the history of English literature.

In the second place, ambition can bring one’s potentials to the full. Ambition may well serve as a catalyst activating one’s dormant potentials. Without ambition one’s potentials will remain slumbering like a dormant volcano. A case in point is Ms Zhang Haidi, a Chinese Helen Keller. It was her ambition to be a useful person has turned the almost paralyzed Zhang Haidi into a well-accomplished figure whose achievements would dwarf those of some normal people aim at the sun, though, at worst, they may probably land on the moon.

Influential as it is upon us, however, ambition must be channeled in the right direction. If wrongly directed, one’s ambition may bring havoc on him and others. Hitler, whose ambition was to conquer Europe by whattever evil means, finally turned him into a demon. It was this demon that almost cast Europe into an unfathomable abyss of anguish and suffering. Another case is Macbeth whose ambition was to become the king of Scotland. However, his ambition was materialized by the murder of King Duncan. Consequently, unbearable guilt and psychological agony drove him to his tragic doom.

To sum up, ambition can benefit us tremendously if wisely and correctly channeled, otherwise it may ruin others and ourselves. A poet says: life can be bad; life can be good; life can be dirty; life can be sad,; life can even be painful. In my mind’s eye, a person can make his life beautiful, meaningful and rewarding and stand out as a respectable personage if he is motivated by a well-orientated ambition.

One morning in the winter, I went to school with my bag and found the fog below.

Oh The fog?! In front of the mountain The grass is green and luxuriant. shy, reluctant to take out the white fog to block. Streets, villages, and pedestrians are shrouded in thick fog, the whole town is the fog of the sea. At first, on the road to see the figure, it was all gray, approached to see the contours of a person. In the street, the car has been raised by the lantern, a flash, and slowly move forward, as if the old man walking night. People walking in the sea of mist, like the fairy The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, seem to be Yu Yunduan. While the fog dispersed, while gather together, while rising, while landing. Everywhere is white, everywhere is white, like a fairy and a white horse in the sky, but also like the myth of "water overflows golden hill". The sun in the sky is so small, the color is very light, very light, only a yellow plate.

In the morning, the fog gradually faded, into a very thin and very thin yarn, in the air floated, sometimes far, sometimes near; sometimes high, sometimes low. This layer of yarn was soon in the hands of the gourd gourd, all gone. Beautiful mountains, tall trees and all the world show their original face. Look, the sun woke up, the sky is smiling to us!

Fog, you have brought us a change, brings the imagination, brings the joy, brings the colorful scenery.

冬天的一个早晨，我背着书包上学，发现楼下的雾可浓了。

哦！下雾了？！前方的青翠欲滴的大山很害羞，不愿意出来，拿白白的雾来遮挡。大街、村庄、行人全被浓雾给笼罩起来了，整个小镇全是雾海。起初在路上还看不见人影，全是灰蒙蒙的，走近了才能看见人的轮廓。在大街上，汽车全提起了灯笼，一闪一闪的，缓缓地向前行驶，仿佛是走夜路的老爷爷。人们在雾海中行走，就像是八仙过海中的仙人一样，似乎置身于云端。大雾一会儿分散开来，一会儿聚拢在一起，一会儿升起，一会儿降落。到处都是乳白色，到处都是白茫茫的，宛如仙女在天上撒下一匹白布，又像是神话中的“水漫金山”。太阳在天上显得是那么弱小，颜色很淡很淡，只有一个黄色的盘子。

上午，浓雾渐渐淡了，变成了一层很薄很薄的纱，在空中飘来飘去，时而远，时而近；时而高，时而低。这层“纱”不久被葫芦娃手中的葫芦收进去了，荡然无存。秀丽的山，高大的树和世界万物又显出它们原有的面容。瞧，太阳睡醒了，正在天上对我们笑哩！

雾，你给我们带来了变化，带来了想象，带来了欢乐，更带来了五彩缤纷的景色。

盼望着、盼望着，一年一度的暑假终于到了!

我兴致勃勃地为自己设计暑期的美好生活：首先，我要读很多课外书，杨红樱的、郑渊洁的，我要一次看个够;还有，我要好好锻炼我的身体，游泳、打球、骑自行车，我要在快乐的运动中减去我的一身肥肉……

可是，妈妈却把一份令人生厌的暑假计划推给我：上午，学奥数;下午，学写作、英语;晚上，做暑假作业。天哪!这哪里是悠闲的暑假，这分明是一所新开的暑假课堂!

但是，我真正决定做的是，我必须利用好，我可以随时备用，虽然它似乎是不可能的。虽然，我会尽我所能，用我生活已计划了，结果将证明这一点。
