Christmas Day falls on the twenty-fifth of December.It is a very happy day

for many boys and girls .Before the term ends in some schools ,the children act

a nativity or “birth” play,showing how Jesus was born in a stable.

On the twenty-fourth of December,all children are very excited.Usually they

are sent to bed early so that their parents can get the presents ready.The

younger children think that Father Christmas will come down the chimney or

fireplace ,so they hang up a sock for him to put presents in.The greedy ones

even hang up a pillow-case or a sack to try to get more presents.Later that

night,Father or Mother will put presents in the sock,and leave others at the

side of the bed.

On Christmas morning,the children wake up very early.Some even turn on the

light at two oclock,and most of them are awake by six oclock although it is

not light in England for another hour or two at this time of the year.Children

look for their presents,and the young ones play while the dinner is prepared.At

about one oclock in the afternoon,the Christmas dinner is brought in.The turkey

or chicken is quickly eaten.Children search in their Christmas pudding for new

coins which are hidden in it.The rest of the day is full of games and eating

until the happiest of all Christmas hollidays comes to an end.

Last winter holiday, I went to shanghai with my mother.

It＇s very cold in winter. There is snow and ice everywhere and you are always in a white world. You must wear warm clothes. The most exciting thing is playing with snow. Skating is also very interesting there.

I will＇ always remember shanghai, for the snow, the ice and all the beautiful things. I love shanghai.

With the general standard of living improving and the working week becoming shorter， more and more people are able to make a holiday trip to places of interest. While many like to join package tours fro convenience， I prefer to travel on my own.

I like travelling on may own not only because it costs much less but because it gives a great degree of independence and freedom. Travelling on my own， I’m my own boss； and can decide when to start on my way， where to linger a little longer and which spot can be skipped over to save energy or time for another spot. I can always adjust my plan. On the contrary， in a package tour you‘re deprived of as much freedom as in a military base. At the sound of the whistle， you have to jump up from a sound sleep and， with heavy-lidded eyes， hurry to the gathering place where you are collected and counted to board a coach. At the sight of the little flag waving， you must immediately take yourself away from the scenes you are marveling at and follow the guide whose sole interest is to cover all spots according to him strict schedule， regardless of the weather or your health condition.

True，you may encounter inconveniences if you travel inpidually，for instance， getting accommodations for the night and finding a place for meals. But nothing can be compared with the freedom which is vital to a person who takes a holiday trip mainly to escape from constraints of his routine life.

去年寒假，我和妈妈去了上海。

我将永远记住上海，因为雪，冰和所有美好的事物。我爱上海

随着人们生活水平的提高和工作时间的缩短，越来越多的人能够去旅游景点度假旅行。而许多想参加旅行团摇来摇去方便，我喜欢在我自己的旅行。我喜欢旅行，可以自己不仅因为它的价格要便宜得多，因为它给了很大程度的独立和自由。我独自去旅游，我是自己的老板；可以决定什么时候出发上路，在那里逗留久一点，哪一点可以跳过了一个景点节省精力和时间。我可以随时调整我的计划。相反，在包价旅游你剥夺尽可能自由的一个军事基地。在口哨的声音，你要跳起来从睡，沉重的眼皮，赶去聚会的地方，你正在收集和统计上的教练。在小国旗飘扬的景象，你必须立即把自己远离你希奇的场景和跟踪指导的唯一的兴趣是根据他走过所有风景点严格的时间表，无论天气或你的健康状况。真的，你可能会遇到麻烦如果你单独旅行，比如，得到住宿过夜，找地方吃饭。但没有什么可以是一个人度假旅行主要是为了逃避他的日常生活的约束自由比较重要。

Its September. Autumn is coming. But where is autumn? I am told that the sky looks higher with few clouds in autumn. I raise my head and look at the sky. It makes no difference with the sky in summer. And trees around are still green. Then I come to the fields. I find the corn in the ear. Apple trees nearby are fruiting well. The harvest season is coming. I jumped with joy. This is autumn. I found it!

九月，秋天来了。可秋天在哪里呢?人们经常说，秋天天高云淡。树叶都凋零了，一片萧条的景象。我抬起头，望望天，天空并没有什么变化。树叶仍绿油油的。于是我来到田野，我发现玉米已经抽穗了，附近的苹果树硕果累累。收获的季节来临了。我高兴地跳了起采，我终于找到秋天了!

亲爱的圣诞老人：

见信悦!

圣诞老人，虽然我不知道真实的你长什么样，但是我在很多照片上看过你的样子。每年的十二月二十五日，你都会给我们送来圣诞礼物。

传说，你会坐着满载礼物的驯鹿车，拉着雪橇，为每位小朋友送礼物。我还知道，你会穿着圣诞服，戴着红色的圣诞帽，悄悄地把礼物放进小朋友的圣诞袜子里。

所以每个小朋友都非常喜欢过圣诞节。这是一个充满了童话色彩的节日。

每年的圣诞节，我们都可以实现自己的一个愿望。今年的圣诞节，我有一个愿望。圣诞老人，你可以帮我实现吗?我身上有一个坏习惯，那就是做事写作业都很慢。圣诞老人，你可以帮助我把这个坏习惯改掉吗?如果我可以改掉的话，妈妈不用再盯着我做作业啦!那样一来，妈妈会很开心的。

你是一个很了不起的圣诞老人，你会帮每个小朋友实现愿望。所以，你也可以帮我实现我的愿望吗?

祝：每天快快乐乐!健康长寿!

My dear:

Please allow me to call you darling for the last time, as I have always

liked to do before. Surprise! Yeah, it was me. It was me writing to you, your

ex-girlfriend. Perhaps you feel very embarrassed or very indifferent, no other

meaning, I just want to write a letter to you, break up half a year to allow me

this trivial selfishness.

I know you are very happy now, but my sudden letter made you feel

unexpected. Last night, my sister and I saw you on the way home, as before the

skin is very white and clean wearing glasses, maybe love men will pay attention

to their own image, you are more neat and clean than before. Riding a bike, you

sit behind a girl. You are very happy, I want to call you, but I dare not, I how

bashful shout, stunned in, so all the way to see you from my line of sight more

and more far. I know, this county is too small, the crowd is too crowded and we

always meet by chance, dear, I love you very much but cant change the reality,

I love you too deep or your love is too shallow love is not firm. Now, only

wish, wish you happy. She, very simple, suitable for your other half. I know

well never be the same again. All I know is that a lot of couples dont make it

and then never get back in touch. But, my dear, if we cant be husband and wife,

cant we even be friends? I remember the first time I saw you, you are very

sunny, and I happened to be depressed at that time. Such me, even friends do not

want to do with you, with a depressed mood love ignore you. But you run every

day after running with me, even if I angry to say you only sad for a while and

then began to take a smile at me. Later in our life, we caught fish, caught

rabbits, visited the beauty of large rape, cherry blossom in the park in full

bloom and fell, I sat in the back of the car and spread my arms and said to fly,

you like to eat sesame ball and I hate it to death, the first time you kissed me

was I severely slap... Honey, I cry every time we turn around. Until the last

time because of the parents of both sides, I know is, you will relentlessly will

insist, but I was too confident, you did not. And I still silly in situ waiting

for you, you left me, give up this relationship, you go, you never look

back.

Dear, I hear that there are five hundred people suitable for me in ones

life. Among them, I am no longer the only one for you. I know, I often say to

myself that it will be ok, as time goes by, our relationship will slowly fade

away. Maybe one day I will be as happy as you are now, dear, but this time is

very long, long trance in my life I think I will never meet the person I love

again, like love you. During the half year of separation, I learned to be used

to loneliness, to look at clouds and clouds, to look at the stars in the sky on

the windowsill at night, and in my spare time, I would hold my friends pet and

walk in the big temple behind your house... Darling, Im looking forward to

meeting you, but Im afraid. I am afraid that your happiness will make my eyes

blindfolded and can not see the world clearly, dear, I know you are very happy,

love a person is to make each other happy, you choose, I respect.

Happy Christmas Eve!

Bless you!

On this day in twenty-first Century, the new century is a widely used technology, the "no wonder Wurenbuxiao," is the "computer", with a "computer" is brought about by the Internet -- known to every family!

The computer is a great invention in the recent ten years before coming out of the network, it is a great progress, as the acme of perfection, as food and clothing, housing and transportation, education and entertainment, the network can help you. The network not only can satisfy you in life, even entertainment are you satisfied with the package, such as good housekeeping, whenever and wherever possible convenience, everyone yearned, also had its "universal" show the white feather, admire.

Nothing is perfect in every respect, is the so-called "extreme" network, although it is very popular among the public, but because it is in everyones life, so by the unscrupulous covet: manufacturing of computer viruses, Trojan horses, and even set up fishing and pornographic sites, is threatened by growing crises. If you accidentally enter the website not fit to be seen should be shut down immediately, otherwise, like yangruhukou, fall into the lions den as difficult to get away.

The first three feet gods, and reward those who want to take advice, network instruments of crime criminals, must not hold fluky mentality, doing something illegal, so as not to violate the law, then it is too late. Although the website can satisfy human needs and desires, but if you use it as a tool for crime, is tantamount to stoop, harm.

"Water can carry a boat, can also capsize, the network is the same, I hope everyone can remember using the rules of network, as long as the use of computer to comply with safety rules, so you can be a happy E generation.

The oceanside community of Lozano Beach is debating whether to allow homeowners to rent out their homes on a weekly basis during the summer. Such rentals produce high incomes for the owners and the city, which gets part of this income through a 15-percent surcharge to the owner. “This can be a boon to our coffers,” said Rick Brown, city manager. “In the summer, homeowners can bring in $2,000 a week or more.”

However, these rentals can also be a can of worms. The city stopped allowing weekly rentals 10 years ago because of the problems they were generating. Two, three, or even four families would pile into a two- or three-bedroom house. Then they would park their cars on the lawn and produce huge amounts of trash. Sometimes they would toss this trash on the streets and sidewalks.

Noise would be another problem. Some people would party late and loud every night. This abuse created a lot of friction with neighbors and resulted in extra work for city maintenance crews and for police, who had to respond almost hourly to residents’ complaints about noise, music, trash, and parking problems. But now, the city’s budget problems are making it reconsider its ban.

City officials will hold a community meeting next week to listen to the pros and cons. One official has already suggested a proposal. He thinks that a fine might work. If the city has to respond to complaints, the homeowner will be charged $200 per response. Such a fine might cause the homeowner to be careful to rent only to people that he is sure will be considerate of the neighbors. The city would still get 15 percent of the rental fee, even if the homeowner’s rent were totallyoffset by fines. The city would post inconsiderate renters’ names on the city website so that other homeowners would know about them.

Some officials think the ban should be continued because these visitors to the community have already proven that they have no consideration for others. Their money isn’t worth the headaches they cause.

Dear Dad,

Do you remember Christmas Eve a year ago? That night, I hung a red sock at

the bedside, in front of you, I closed my eyes and made a wish. When I open my

eyes, my first word is, "Dad, will Santa come?" You say, "It will come!" "Will

he always be with me?" I asked. You do not answer, but I see in your pupils a

little worry.

The next day, I found what I wanted in the red socks. When I held the socks

came to your front, your haggard face bloomed a happy smile, and I in your eyes

caught a trace of sadness.

In a twinkling of an eye, the world as if a lot of old, this years

December 24, Xi son to our home rehearsal program, you sent him away, I still

put the red socks -- or last years socks, hanging in my bedside. I asked you

the same question, "Dad, will Santa come?" "Yes," you replied. "Will he grow up

with me?" I asked. You still did not answer, I in your old face swept a trace of

sadness.

In fact, I already knew that there is no Such thing as Santa Claus. Last

year, the Santa Claus who gave me presents was you. Nevertheless, with a faint

hope, I asked you the same question I had asked you a year before, but I still

got your silent answer, and I understood everything.

This years Christmas Eve, "Santa Claus" or gave me a gift, But I happily

ran to you there, I suddenly heard you ask: "Son, do you like Santa Claus? I

dont know how to answer. I know its you, but can you give me that wish I had a

year ago? I inadvertently found a white hair on your head, my heart like knocked

over a bottle of taste, I have been in the quilt babble until eleven o

clock.

Dad, youre still the Santa I was a year ago, but you cant live up to my

wishes like the legend says Santa Claus can. I finally understand the sadness in

your eyes, and understand the suffering in your heart. Dad, youre an

"incompetent" Santa. I thought you were an ordinary person in the world. But

then I suddenly realized that all the fathers in the world are unqualified Santa

Claus and you are the greatest person in the world!

Dad, I love you!

There are too many tomorrow, but there will be no more of the same today. From the starting point of life to the present graduating little boy, you have the life you have lamented the grief at separation and joy in Union? Have failed but still can laugh at life? You have my pain and frustration over the curse of God? Whether you have done this, everything has become the past, good memories; everything has become history, a wise choice.

At this moment, I can not help but think of themselves, in six years ago, that was the first grade at the entrance of the small child has made such a move, every time when I go to school, I always a person wandering in front of the teaching building, I silently in my heart to leave the nursery when good partners, I it entered the school, started a new study and life, I must work hard, and then get back their competition! This is just a very simple and naive, but now I grow up, remember everything is just a dream, and now whether they meet difficulties, I always the up to fling caution to the winds, think of those who are very far but very close friends, their company makes me feel lonely, they encourage me to have confidence in the future.

There are too many vicissitudes of life, grief at separation and joy in Union in the six years of primary school career, I am lucky to finish my school life here. I have been studying here for six years, although I often have some war of words between my classmates, but I always think I live in a happy, free and forever class. Review the past, I will always feel gratified, always proud of oneself! It all seems like a gold bubble, there are countless small drop of water, though it is never broken, because it needs to collect more drops of water, until the end of the world.

Looking back on the past, our life is so beautiful; looking to the future, our life is so wonderful. We have been traveling on this long road on this road, covered with thorns and flowers. We have been trying to do well, though we will encounter many difficulties on the way, but we have been sticking to the virtues of human nature. The past, let it pass, the history is still beautiful. In the future, I will not give up my dream, no matter how deep the "difficult Valley" is on the road of life. Looking forward to the future, I am confident, I will work hard for my dream!

英文名称是Application letter。它通常分为几种类型，包括索取公司应聘申请表及详细资料的不带的求职信，附简历的应征求职信，试探性的求职信等等。 那么，英文有哪些呢？

递交求职信的目的是用求职信来吸引阅读者，而不是一种形式或习惯。打开装有求职信的信封，首先看到的就是求职信，它是表现应聘者个性的工具，想象一下，如果对方看到的是连折叠都不齐整的信纸，还有好心情看下去吗？而结构松散的信会让人觉得写信者条理不清晰。语法拼写或标点的错误太多，则会让人觉得此人办事容易出错，对工作不负责任，公司是不会聘用这样的人的。通常一封求职信的阅读时间是30秒，在这30秒内能体现的实际上是你的风格。而每一个公司都喜欢聘用专业作风很强的有能力的员工。

在招聘广告中，常要求有意申请者可致电或致函索取公司的申请表格。索取这类申请表格的求职信一般都比较简短，格式参照范例。 得到申请表格后，仔细填写后一般与简历一起交给公司。申请表格的填写。

附简历的应征求职信具有向招聘者说明简历和具体求职内容的作用。简历中你已经将自己的职业经历或教育情况列表说明了，在求职信里就应着重表达自己的意见。在求职信里要简短地对简历中提到的与应聘职位有关的职业经历和技能加以说明。但是，只是简单的重复简历里的内容是不够的。要把简历里没有的内容充分添加进去，显示出与其他应聘者的差别。你需要表达的观点是：渴望、确信、真诚（I am keen, I am clear and I am sincere)。在第一段里，陈述你渴望得到这个空缺职位，第二段说明你已了解这项工作和公司的要求，说明你为什么认为你符合它们的招聘条件。第三段讲清你本人希望在何时面试，何时可以上班。第四段采用能使公司相信你对这项工作真正有兴趣的语句结束这封信。

典型的求职信格式是：你的地址写在信纸的右上方，地址下面是写信日期。信纸左上角要写上接受你求职信的人的姓名和尊称其下面是该公司的名称和地址。再下面就是招聘广告中给出的其他相关代码。

试探性的求职信是你主动发给你感兴趣的公司的，这类希望渺茫的却经常能出人意料的取得成功，因为这种申请求职的方法表现出了申请人本身的能力、勇气和激情。

试探性求职申请信应该简洁，讲清楚你对该公司感兴趣的原因，写明你具备的资格以及你认为会引起该公司注意的任何品德。邮寄申请信时，要把也一起寄去。你还需要知道公司里人事经理或部门经理的名字，把直接信寄给他会更有效一些。

可能在很长的一段时间里，你收不到任何回音，那么可以断定该公司目前没有你申请的空缺职位。

The summer vacation had come round again. I was happy that I could forget

about school at least for a while. Lest I fool around all through this summer

vacation, I made a plan as to how to spend it. First, I thought I should go over

all those things my teachers taught in the previous term so that I could have a

better understanding of them. Then I thought I should take up some forms of

exercise, such as walking, running and rowing, to keep me physically strong. It

stood to reason that with such a good plan I should make the best of my vacation

time. I did, because I lived up to what I had planned.
