关于厦门的英文作文【汇集20篇】

皓月当空，皎洁的月光铺满大地的每一个角落，几颗顽皮的星星似乎在朝我眨眼睛，风吹过花草。此刻，躺在床上的我心中久久不能平静。今天在厦大发生的一幕幕如电影一般在我的脑海中回放，令我深刻感受到它的历史悠久和学习气氛的浓厚。

在去厦门大学前，我十分兴奋地查了一下相关的资料，网上是这样评价赞美它的：学术成就高大上，校园风光美如画。我看后更是对厦大憧憬、向往。终于在2019年8月28日，我作为少通社小记者来到了期盼已久的厦门大学。走进了气派的校门，在不远处看到了图书馆和颂恩楼，这颂恩楼一共有21层楼，厦大的最高建筑。一路看着厦大的风景，真是名不虚传的。“人在画中游”，游到了科学艺术中心，又游到了芙蓉湖，这湖中最初只有六只黑鸭子，为国家一级保护动物。我们就在这儿的广场背对芙蓉湖和颂恩楼拍了一张合影，最后我们又游到了餐厅，吃完了午餐，准备了下午的行程。

下午，烈日当空，我们个个大汗淋漓，但是当走进了芙蓉遂道，迎面吹来了凉爽的风，这条遂道全长1。10公里，净宽8米，净高4。5米，我最欣赏并喜欢其中的一幅皮卡丘。从芙蓉遂道走出来，我们又来到了无人机的课堂，讲课的姐姐教我们区分航天器和航空器，还教我们一些有关无人机的知识，在厦门大学，无人机的团队就像一匹黑马，没有任何人的指导，并且在每次比赛中都取得了优异的成绩。我们也自已动手拼装，试飞。这令我感到厦门大学的莘莘学子如何从无到有的力量。

最后，我们一行人来到了校史馆和鲁迅纪念馆，这儿的建筑中西融合，从校史馆我了解到了厦大是从1927年4月6日建校，是由爱国华侨领袖陈嘉庚先生创办，从厦门大学走出的知名人物数不胜数：陈景润、余光中、张高丽……这令我由衷钦佩，即钦佩这儿的历史悠久，又钦佩这儿人才倍出，与学习气氛浓厚。听闻鲁迅先生也曾经在这儿任教过，厦门大学还专门设有鲁迅纪念馆，使我更深的了解到鲁迅的平生，还有他当时在这儿任教的经历，与环境令我感到厦大师资的庞大。我想：我要努力学习，将来考上和厦门大学一样好的大学。

躺在床上，这时，我已经睡着了。我梦见我已经是厦大的学子，我梦见了我在厦门大学里试飞无人机，我梦见……。

前几天，我去了厦门这个沿海城市，吃了那里的大排档，去了珍珠港海滩游泳，游玩了鼓浪屿，还去赶海、坐帆船了。

厦门既然是一个沿海城市，那肯定就有很多美味的海鲜啦，比如海蛤、老蛏、螺蛳……好多好多。大排档里面有很多菜品，我最喜欢的是海蛤煎，把蛋和海蛤混在一起煎，煎出来蛋里夹着海蛤的肉，看着都香!

在厦门，沙滩当然是必不可少的啦。下午我们骑着自行车去沙滩玩。我们骑的是双人自行车，别看别人骑得那么轻松，实际上超级难呢!我和黄果骑一辆车，我们俩骑得歪歪斜斜的，往往脚都还没蹬，车就倒了。但是到后来，我们骑得越来越好，越来越流畅了。到了七点左右，我和黄果换了泳裤准备去海里游泳。到了海里面，就好像进了一个大浴缸里面，不过里面有沙和浪。被浪冲着特爽，一会儿上了沙滩，一会儿又被带进海里面，真有趣!

厦门最出名的就是鼓浪屿了。为什么叫鼓浪屿呢?因为鼓浪屿的沙滩上有一块石头，人们认为水只要拍打了这块石头，石头就会发出鼓一样的声音，所以这块石头就被叫做“鼓浪石”，那自然而然，这座岛就叫“鼓浪屿”了。导游说鼓浪屿上有很多别墅，都是很有钱的华裔的房子，而且那儿还有浴场、蜡像馆和珍奇动物博物馆，里面有两个头的猪、六条腿的兔子、会下蛋的公鸡和许多奇怪的动物，真是不可思议。

在厦门最热的那一天，我们去赶海捉螃蟹。可是天气实在太热了，我们找到的都是一些死螃蟹，我就开创了一个新的游戏：用铲子切螃蟹。可是刚切了一只我就受不了了，因为里面全是寄生虫和臭蟹黄。天哪!太恶心了!最后一个活动就是坐帆船了。坐在船上，吹着凉风多舒服呀!我们上了一只小帆船，驾船的人说我们可以把脚伸进海里，很舒服的。果然，真是太舒服啦!

这次厦门游，唯一遗憾的就是没能去成厦门大学，因为需要提前三天网上预约。去厦门旅游的人太多了，我们速度太慢，没有抢到。不过游玩了这么多地方，我也很满足了!

Mr Smith and his son Jim rent a boat from Mr Green. They find a very good place and catch a lot of fish. Now it is   late and they are going home.

Jim says, “I’ll come here again tomorrow.”

“Yes, me too.” say his father. “But how can we get      back and find the right place again?” “I can make a    mark   on the side of the boat.” Jim answers.

The father laughs and says, “No, that’s foolish! Mr Green won’t give us the same boat next time.”

【释义】

史密斯先生和他的儿子吉姆，从格林先生那里租了一条船。他们找到了一个非常好的地方并抓到了许多鱼。天色已经很晚了，他们要回家了。

吉姆说：“我明天还要再来这里。”

“是的，我也是。”他的父亲说。“但是我们怎么回来并找到正确的地方呢?”“我可以在船的一侧做个记号。”吉姆回答道。

父亲大笑说道：“不那太愚蠢了!格林先生下次不会给我们同一条船的。”

Old Town of Lijiang in the Southern Song Dynasty has begun to take shape, the existing eight,nine hundred years of history. Since the Ming Dynasty, Old Town of Lijiang says"Dayan car", Lijiang dam Center for their home, surrounded on all sides of Castle Peak, green water between a hover, like a jasper big inkstone, hence the name.

我的家乡厦门，是一个美丽的地方。那里有许多的名胜古迹，比如：古老而神秘的建筑土楼群，驰名中外的鼓浪屿等。

首先我先来一下，厦门古老的土楼。土楼分方形和圆形两种，都十分坚固。土楼可以有效的防止当地台风和地震的侵袭。土楼一般分四层，每层都有它们不同的作用。我去参观了几座，结构大概是这样的：一、二层没有窗，是用于存放粮食的。三、四层有的窗的才是用于居住的。我参观后，十分惊讶，为祖先建下这神奇的建筑，而感到自豪。另外，土楼外面有许多人自己做的小吃，如：仙草，山药，等等……我也去品尝了些，真的很不错！。

我参观的这么多土楼中，最为有名的是永定土楼。它历史悠久、风格独特。20**年7月，它被成功列入世界遗产名录。

另外，令我影响最深的是永隆昌土楼。里面十分阴凉，根本不用开电风扇。永隆昌土楼上方用木头搭成，墙用土建成，十分坚固，好像永远不会倒塌一样。

然后，再来一下，厦门的著名岛屿——鼓浪屿。它在厦门西面，隔海约700米处的一个美丽的小岛，面积只有1。71平方公里。步行一个多小时就可以绕岛一圈。在这个小岛上，浓荫覆盖，花香扑鼻，可以说是处处似公园，触目皆佳景。

鼓浪屿十分的热闹，大大小小的店铺，卖着各种各样的小零食。收集图章也是一大亮点，走进店铺你就会看到，带有他们特色的图章，你可以买一本图章本，一边逛店铺，一边收集图章。我就做了这样的收集，半个小时之内，我就收集了二十几个图章呢！

我的家乡是那样美丽，我爱我的家乡！

我去过许多地方，但我最喜欢的是厦门。

20xx年5月4日，我们来到了厦门。这一带阳光猛，紫外线出奇的强。

下了车，我们来到鼓浪屿海滩上。这时，是海水退潮之际，许多海贝、海星、海银鱼在海滩上蠕动，脱 下鞋站在水里，一种冰凉的感觉从脚心渗透至全身。

站在礁石上，海风吹来阵阵咸味和腥味。这是大海的味道吗!?我大口的呼吸着。

在岸边，我痴痴地望着海那边的金门岛。金门……..是什么样的城市呢!?

漫步海滩，忽觉脚下一沉。低头一看;哇!一只小龟前爪搭在我脚上。抓起那只龟，拿出牛肉干逗它，它一双小眼睛直盯牛肉干，吃的可香了。站在海滩里，运气好的话，还可以听见“哗哗….”的鱼摆尾溅起的水声。

厦门令我流连忘返。

天，湛蓝的像块无暇的蓝宝石，太阳用它的热情欢迎我们，今天，我们走进厦门植物园。

刚一踏入植物园，炙热立刻就被丝丝凉意代替，好舒服。入园口，就是邓小平爷爷在1984年亲手种的一棵大叶樟树，现在此处已成为人们缅怀一代伟人的场所。再走过去，突然一个“葫芦”从天而降，吓了我一大跳，走近细看，“葫芦”小小的，再听妈妈的介绍，原来，它就是莲雾，热带水果，我恍然大悟。

这时，前面传来一阵鸟叫声又吸引了我的注意力，原来我们来到了“百花厅”。这里共有五个展览室、回廊、曲桥、水榭串联其间，环绕着椭圆形的荷花池。有好多奇花异卉，好多我都没见过，特别是“王莲”，像圆圆的一个大盘子，周围的荷叶全部向上卷起来，像个平底锅似的，好神奇！听志愿者阿姨讲解，这是世界上最大的莲叶，它是水生植物中叶片最大的植物，圆盘上面坐个几十公斤的孩子是绝对没有问题的。哇，我好想去坐坐体验一下，真是“水中大力水手”！王莲的周围还有大片的荷花，成群的鲤鱼嬉戏在荷叶中，飞天仙女好像优美的矗立在湖中，好一幅秀美山水画。

接下来，我们还游玩了雨林世界，里面雾气朦胧，非常凉快湿润，见到了大大的菠萝蜜长在高高的树上，真担心它们会掉下来。各种热带植物，看上去仿佛仙境。沙生植物区可以看到很多奇形怪状的仙人掌展示。还有松杉林，万石林······

时间一点点的流逝，今天的植物园真是不虚此行啊！

The sun rises every day, and the tide rises and falls. The date on which the stone was marked on the wall with a stone on the island, the coconut water has no taste, the first eaten crab should be the worlds most delicious food, and later did not have any flavor. “ I invented the fire! ” and when he shouted the words excitedly, I really believed in the worlds “ fire ” indeed, it was invented by krishnamurti. Its more exciting than Edison invented the electric light, and is there anything more meaningful than that?

People can endure the pain of the body, can endure hunger, can endure the cold, but how can people tolerate long-term absolute loneliness? But the pocket watch Kylie, but fortunately there is volleyball become Weixin, followed from the mail. If a man is desperate, what he needs most is not his ideal for tomorrow, but whether he has friends today. Here by a netizen said: “ Kylies watch and make chuck feel love; let friends feel Weixin chuck friendship; open wings let mail chuck feel responsibility. ” even though he has guessed that Kylie must marry another friend, but he is Weixin talking to yourself, encourage a volleyball of their own, the mail sent to almost no possibility, but for now the police grams, their presence is enough, can let him feel the love and affection and responsibility, can let him continue to have the courage to survive and have a glimmer of hope. He is how to cherish these things, an impulse to chuck Wilson thrown out, he was so afraid to go back to “ WBL, sorry, I will not leave you ”.

The sea finally brought a sail &mdash to the crew; — a piece of iron. It was so precious that he could not wait to see what God would give him. He spent all the islands he could take as ropes, and made a sailing boat that was as important to him as Noahs ark. With a few coconut, together with the friend Weixin, leave this piece did not dare to think of living alone for four years the island, began to seek the rebirth of the airlines. When he gradually away from the island, looking back, is how complex feelings, perhaps all emotions can not be said, only in the heart of their own exclamation “ really can not believe! ”

The vast sea, a boat, a few nights of rain, is still in the sea, the sea ruthless friend Weixin away, chuck aware he will like this around like whale to stay the sea, but whale ah, here is your paradise of happiness, it is my grave!

The cargo ship arrived, and the cargo ship came in early, not late. “ Im not going to talk about the movie here; the plot must be arranged like this, ”. It seems not to chuck life. If he dies, you and I and all people will not be reconciled. “ Kylie — — ” only the most sincere hope that chuck survived Kylie let chuck in a long call to see the ship, “ Kylie — — ”

Chucks back, almost all of my friends than he is to be happy, after the disaster, chuck has no daxitaibei, let joy to my friends. If it turns out that Charlie has changed a lot, one of them is to understand how important it is to support and encourage friends. On the plane, he said to Stan, "“ when Marie died, I wasnt there. Im sorry. I should be there for you, &rdquo.";.

After dinner, chuck face a big table meal, when he saw the crabs, this very common dish, he has become a life-saving food, now think about it, really love a tired! The process lighter, lighter senior human wisdom invention, do not love, no matter how beautiful also, very low but I invented drilling wood fire, how do you appear in the table, rather than on the island!

Kylie, Kylies beloved, and the most difficult years to accompany her through his heart. “ I dont know what to say to her. What should I say?. &rdquo is going to see Kylie; Chuck! After she first thought lost chuck, was married to be at a loss what to do, chuck saw dental dentist Lucheri. Now, suddenly she appeared, and she was at a loss again. In the rainy night, Richard drove to Kylie. “ one thing I want to know ” chuck say this Kylie heart knew he wanted to know what — — how do you marry the dentist Lucheri! But they all understand this reason, on the island of chuck had already foreseen such a result, if not Lucheri, then would be someone else. But Chuck is clever, the director is also clever, chuck asked: “ the Tennessee football team in Nashville now? ” “ Oh, my days ” Kylie was so relieved, knew each other sadness is not necessary to open it so clear. I quite agree with the directors arrangement.

太阳每天在升起，潮起潮又落。察克用石头在墙上标记下在岛上度过的日期，椰子水已没有了任何味道，第一口生吃螃蟹应该是天下最美的佳肴，而后来也没有任何味道了。“我发明了火!”当察克兴奋的喊出这句话的时候，我真正的相信这世界的“火”确实是察克发明的。这要比爱迪生发明电灯更加让人振奋，还有比这更有意义的发明吗?

人可以忍受身体的伤痛，可以忍受饥饿，可以忍受寒冷，可是人要怎样才能忍受长期的绝对的孤独呢?还好有怀表里的凯莉，还好有排球变的维信，还好有跟着飘来的邮件。如果说在一个人绝望的时候他最需要什么，不是他对明天还有多大的理想，而是今天是否有朋友在鼓励。这里借一位网友的话：“凯莉的怀表和相片让察克感受到爱情;朋友维信让察克感受到友情;未打开的翅膀邮件让察克感受到责任。”尽管他已猜到凯莉肯定要另嫁他人，朋友维信只不过是他跟自己说话、鼓励自己的一只排球，那份邮件几乎没有继续送到的可能，但对于现在的察克，它们的存在已经够了，已经可以让他感受到爱情，亲情和责任了，已经可以让他继续有勇气生存下去并怀有一丝希冀了。他是多么珍惜这些东西，一次冲动察克把维信扔了出去，他又那样害怕的去找回来“维信，对不起，我再也不丢下你了”。

大海终于给察克送来一面帆——一块破铁皮。这已经弥足珍贵了，他无法再期待上帝会给他带来什么更好的赏赐。察克用尽小岛所有可以取之为绳的东西，做好一个对他来说如同诺亚方舟一样重要的帆船。带上几个椰子，和朋友维信一起，离开这片不敢再想起的独自生存了四年的荒岛，开始寻求重生之航。当他渐渐远离小岛，回头再望时，是怀有怎样复杂的心情，或许万般情绪不能言表，只会在心里对自己感叹“真不敢相信!”

茫茫大海，一叶孤舟，几夜风雨，依然是茫茫大海，海浪无情的把朋友维信带走了，察克意识道他将会像这身边的鲸鱼一样永留大海，可是鲸鱼啊，这里是你快乐的天堂，却是我的坟墓!

货船来了，货船在不早不晚的时候，在察克已经释然的时候终于来了。“在这里我不讨论电影故事情节必须如此安排”。看来察克的生命还不到归期。如若他死了，你，还有我和所有人都不会甘心的。“凯莉——”唯一的最真切的令察克怀有希望活下来的凯莉让察克在看到货船时发出久别的呼唤，“凯莉——”

察克的回来，几乎所有的朋友都比他自己要开心，是的，经过此次大难后，察克不再有大喜大悲，让欢喜留给朋友们。如果说这次经历让查理改变了很多，那么其中之一就是更明白对朋友的支持和鼓励多么重要。在飞机上他对史丹说：“玛丽去世时，我不在，对不起，我应该在你身边给你支持”。

饭后，察克面对一大桌的美餐，当他看到大闸蟹的时候，这个非常普遍的一道菜，曾经成为他救命的食物，现在想想，真是又爱有厌!那个工艺打火机，人类智慧发明的高级打火机，一点都不可爱，再怎么漂亮，也极抵不过我所发明的钻木之火，你怎么就只出现在这个餐桌上，而不是那个小岛上呢!

凯莉，察克所深爱的并且在他心底陪她走过最艰难岁月的凯莉。“我不知道该对她说些什么，我该说些什么呢。”查克快要见到凯莉了!而她先是以为失去了察克，不知所措以后，嫁给了曾为察克看过牙病的牙医卢杰里。现在察克突然出现了，她又不知所措了!还是那句话，终究要面对。雨夜察克驱车赶到凯莉那儿。“有件事情我很想知道”察克说出这句话时凯莉心里早就明白他想知道什么——你怎么嫁给了牙医卢杰里!可是这个原因他们都明白，在岛上察克就已经预见到了这样的结果，如果不是卢杰里，便会是另外的人。但察克是聪明的，导演也是聪明的，察克的问的是：“田纳西的足球队现在在纳什维尔?”“哦，我的天”凯莉如此松了一口气，彼此心知肚明的悲情没有必要再那么明朗的翻开来说。我很赞成导演这么安排。

今天，我终于来到了我梦寐以求想去的旅游之地——厦门。

厦门的高楼大厦虽然不多，但厦门的美景让人陶醉。

首先，我们来到了举世闻名的鼓浪屿。坐落在大海中央的鼓浪屿犹如一座海上公园，山青水秀，鸟语花香。海面上，来来往往的船只川流不息，一片繁忙。我们乘上轮渡，踏着海风，很快就登上了鼓浪屿。鼓浪屿树木郁郁葱葱，繁花似锦。我走在岛的小路上，看不到任何的车辆，听不见都市的喧闹，我仿佛走进了世外桃源。岛上的建筑别具一格，一座座风格各异的小别墅，使鼓浪屿更加迷人。岛上的小吃也特别的美味，让我回味无穷。

我们又来到了海边，那一望无际的大海，白云在蔚蓝的天空中飘动，海鸥一会儿贴近海面一会儿飞向高空，自由自在地飞翔。浪花刚一接触到岸边的沙滩，又害羞地退了回去，然后又扑了上来，像个顽皮的小孩子。一群群大人小孩都在快活地玩耍。我们坐在海滩边，听着海浪声，一边品茶一边看风景，构成一幅美丽动人的图画。

夕阳西下，我们在一片欢声笑语中依依不舍地离开了美丽的鼓浪屿。

It is hit by in the children eye , is is a festival being full of the mysterious color.

龙年的正月初一，我们全家三口到厦门去旅游。我坐着动车，沿途欣赏窗外的风景，心里特别开心。

火车到达厦门北站，我们立刻去了著名的胡里山炮台，在那里，我看到了国内仅存最大的一尊古炮，非常雄伟！我们还看了一场开炮实演，只见穿着清代官服的一列士兵，拿着华丽的旗帜，走上炮台，他们经过一系列的准备工作后，点燃火盆，稍后，把弹装入炮管，引燃，只听“轰”的一声巨响，片刻间硝烟迷漫，在炮发射了，周围的人们都被吓得胆战心惊。

第二天，我们去了东山岛上的“风动石景区”。那块屹立在山崖边的巨大的石头，高约10米，像快要掉下来似的，据说，有人用粗大的铁链拉它，它都纹丝不动，只有刮七级以上的东南风，它才微微晃动，但很多年了都不曾摔下来过，这就是所谓的风动石吧！

第三天，我们来到了永定土楼。厦门的特色建筑是骑楼式建筑，但这里却是土楼，据说，这是很久以前中国河南一带的人们为了躲避战乱，迁居到此而建造的，导游说，美国人首先发现了土楼群，他们以为是导弹发射基地呢！

最后一天上午，我们去了鼓浪屿，这是一个闻名中外的小岛，岛上有万国建筑群，有被称为“独木成林”的古榕树，有很像铁树的“加拿沥海澡”树，还有芒果树和香蕉树。导游说，厦门有名的特产是桂圆、片仔皇和水仙花，岛上都有。战争时期，鼓浪屿是兵家必争之地，如今岛上空气清新，适合度假，这里热闹非凡，全是游人。因为时间匆忙，我没有去著名的日光岩看看，希望下次还能来！

这次旅游，我看到了大海，看到了不一样的异地风情，真是太开心了！

Our family enjoyed a wonderful New Years evening family dinner because it is seldom to get so many relatives to get together.My uncle,aunt and cousin,my best friend,came and had dinner with us.It took almost whole afternoon to prepare the dishes.Of course,that is a chance to show my mom and my aunts cooking skill.We also try to do something to help them,but,what we got was "going to play".It is happy for me to hear that rather than "go to do your homework".The evening dinner is so good,everyone enjoyed and aet overload to their stomach.So wonderful dinner,so wonderful new year.

Nowadays,more and more families choose to have the dinner on New Year’s Eve in restaurants.Though this choice doesn’t follow our tradition,I think it’s good and should be encouraged.

First,it’s obviously more convenient to do so.The process of preparing a home-made New Year’s Eve dinner is not only hard but also annoying.People have to buy food several days before the festival and spend a long time cooking all sorts of dishes.Now,just pick up the telephone and reserve a table.Everything will be well arranged by the restaurant.

Second,it still create a warm atmosphere by getting the family united,which is the true purpose of the dinner.In the restaurant,you celebrate the New Year and share your happiness with other families and usually can enjoy special performances or activities,organized by the owner of the restaurant.

To make a conclusion,having the dinner on New Year’s Eve outside shows a change in people’s thoughts on traditions and seems to be a wise,nice and exciting idea.

There is a trend that more and more families have their dinner on New Year’s Eve in the restaurant.Although it is more convenient,it doesn’t seem to be a pleasure thing for me.

Firstly,the restaurants are too crowded.Owing to this,we cannot talk freely.In addition,the sense of harmony cannot be felt by the family members.

Secondly,it may cost us a big sum of money which we can save by having the dinner in our own families.The whole family’s preparation for the dinner is also a process of enjoying according to my view.

In a word,it is not a good idea to have New Year’s Eve dinner in the restaurant.Home dinner makes a happy New Year.

上次讲到我和表哥回宾馆睡觉，其实并没有真睡，而是装睡。我和表哥眯缝起眼，悄悄地“监视”着周围的情况。等爸爸妈妈走后，我们便开始“大闹天宫”了。

我们先把枕头扔到地上，被子弄乱，把房间弄得乱七八糟，模拟着像战场一样的效果。接着，我装模作样地打着笔记本电脑，给表哥报告着准确的信息。表哥呢，也像模像样地用吃饭剩下来的贝壳，浴袍上的带子和床上的（哦，不，现在该说地上的）枕头来打敌人。

然后，我们又玩了拔河游戏，就是用浴袍上的带子来拔河，嘿哟嘿哟，真带劲！我们还玩了扔鞋子、躲鞋子游戏……最有意思的，就是泡澡游戏了。嗯……这不算游戏吧。咱们在浴缸里玩啊，玩啊，就当是洗澡了。玩着玩着，我们觉得有些累了。看了看时间，哇！都凌晨4点了耶！哎，不管了，反正爸爸妈妈还没有回来，一定是到KTV去Sing了！

我和表哥又看起了电视，看着看着，表哥在不知不觉中睡着了。幸亏我又叫醒了他，我们还要破吉尼斯世界纪录呢！可惜，没过一会儿，妈妈回来了，我们只好乖乖地睡觉了。

December 25th is Christmas day, my mother tells me: Christmas is not a traditional Chinese festival, it is the biggest festival in western countries in a year, which is equivalent to the Spring Festival in China.

Coming to the street, everyone feels the atmosphere of the festival. Almost all the stores have Christmas trees, some in the doorway, and some in the hall. The Christmas tree pyramid, wearing a green dress, wearing a small bell, jingle bells, a gentle touch, a beautiful voice; golden light, like the blinking stars; small lantern flashing, riotous with colour, very beautiful!

Look! The bank stood a door on the high ropes "snow doll". Wearing a blue hat, wearing a blue vest, gloves and shoes are blue, chubby face, curved eyebrows, round eyes, like two bright purple grapes, pointy nose, orange, triangular, and the smile is so cute! My little sister yo couldnt help stretch her chubby little hand, holding the snow doll, but also the tender sound Nenqi said: "hello! Hello! "

However, the most striking is the yidie shopping hall side, a beautiful picture of a big table with a white foam show, seems to tell the story of a fairy tale: in a beautiful red house, the seven dwarfs happy life together. On Christmas day, they bounce ran out of the house, snowball, snowball fights, snowmen in the snow...... Three, decorate the Christmas tree, which has a height of about four meters, wearing a golden coat, covered in studded sapphire, dazzling. At this time, only listen to the clatter, clatter... From far closer, the Santa Claus is full of gifts, and they dance with joy.

A lot of people in this photo, I was no exception, accidentally also get covered in snow"!

Little Robert asked his mother for two cents. "What did you do with the money I gave you yesterday?"

"I gave it to a poor old woman," he answered.

"Youre a good boy," said the mother proudly. "Here are two cents more. But why are you so interested in the old woman?"

"She is the one who sells the candy."

【释义】

好孩子 小罗伯特向妈妈要两分钱。

"昨天给你的钱干什么了？"

"我给了一个可怜的老太婆，"他回答说。 "你真是个好孩子，"妈妈骄傲地说。"再给你两分钱。可你为什么对那位老太太那么感兴趣呢？"

"她是个卖糖果的。"

Good brother,

It has been some time since I read your letter. Have seen many times, in

the mind also has a lot of words to say, but... I never knew where to start. On

this Christmas Eve night, let me start with memories.

Dude, Im not a pushy girl. In your eyes, I am the little sister in your

memory. I am the single woman who was alone in a foreign country, weak in heart

but strong to face life. At that time, I was alone in the face of difficulties

in other countries, alone for life, simply for survival and struggle. At that

time, I had to be strong. Since my childhood, I have been a happy, carefree girl

around my parents. During those years in a foreign country, stress and

loneliness made me grow up. However, I am still not strong.

Eldest brother, I have benefited a lot from the four years suffering

abroad. I have learned a lot and grown up a lot. Maybe it is gods reward for

me. After coming back to China, my career, life, smooth and peaceful for a few

years. However, I am still lonely, many times, the heart is very bitter very

bitter, as when writing this letter, alone. The tears would flow when I

remembered the things I had buried in my heart.

Brother, I, too, want company. Want to take a persons hand, walk together

after the day, face this complex world together. Just want to be a little woman,

can take a persons hand, a person can be heart to heart, from now on, no matter

what things, all to face together.

These years, and brother has been out of touch. Always remember you once

said a sentence. Friends, is in the heart, no matter how no contact, no meeting.

But in my heart, I always remember having such a friend. Your love and care has

always been in my heart. I havent talked to you in depth for a long time, so

Ill go on.

The reason I have remained alone all these years is not because of the

conditions I set for my partner. I want a person, actually very simple. Ha ha,

big brother, dont laugh at me. I just want a little love.

In this day and age, all people will tell me that nothing is more illusory

than love. But I, still stubbornly looking forward to, there is a warm, real

person can appear.

I, however, is an ordinary woman, but also just want to live an ordinary

day. Fall in love with someone, then face life with him, work hard for the

future together, raise a child together.

Several times during the blind date, the plain man sitting opposite asked

me, what do you want from the man. A house? Income? Or a car. Can face such a

problem, I always cant speak, only smile, the heart of despair and pain began

to spread...

Brother, I am just a woman with a strong exterior and a soft heart. So,

now, what kind of person do you think I should accept at the time of blind date?

Im not asking for a strong man, as you say. I just want a gentle, understand

life, know love, know how to cherish people.

Life is short. You can let yourself, and live for yourself is even shorter.

But sometimes also want to do not cooperate with their parents so unfilial, will

also think, perhaps, marriage is a can not be so selfish thing, even if it is to

comfort their parents, also should let their marriage as soon as possible.

Xi an, the city we live in now. Old and elegant. Is the home that has been

on my mind when I was a vagabond. In the next year, I will continue to live in

this city in a down-to-earth way. I hope that there will be one person who can

fall in love with each other in a down-to-earth way. This is a Wish made on

Christmas Eve.

Youth

Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.

Youth means a tempera-mental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years. We grow old by deserting our ideals.

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spring back to dust.

Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being‘s heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing childlike appetite of what‘s next and the joy of the game of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station: so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from the Infinite, so long are you young.

When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there is hope you may die young at 80.

青春

青春不是年华，而是心境；青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉意志，恢宏想

象，炙热恋情；青春是生命深泉在涌流。

青春气贯长虹，勇锐盖过怯弱，进取压倒苟安。如此锐气，二十后生而有之，六旬男子则更多见。年岁有加，并非垂老，理想丢弃，，学习英语的网站，方堕暮年。

岁月悠悠，衰微只及肌肤；热忱抛却，颓废必致灵魂。忧烦，惶恐，丧失自信，定使心灵扭曲，意气如灰。

无论年届花甲，拟或二八芳龄，心中皆有生命之欢乐，奇迹之诱惑，孩童般天真久盛不衰。人人心中皆有一台天线，只要你从天上人间接受美好、希望、欢乐、勇气和力量信号，你就青春永驻，，风华常存。

一旦天线下降，锐气便被冰雪覆盖，玩世不恭、自暴自弃油然而生，即使年方二十，实已垂垂老矣；然则只要树起天线，捕捉乐观信号，你就有望在八十高龄告别尘寰时仍觉年轻。

周末到了，闲来无事，我便来到厦门市图书馆看书。

走进图书馆，我拿起一本《战争与和平》，坐下来想静静地阅读，却看见了身前身后的一道道亮丽的风景——志愿者忙碌的身影。

只见小小志愿者们不停地将桌上杂乱的书籍分门别类地整理到不同的书架上。我看到他们口干舌燥、大汗淋漓，却连喝水、擦汗的时间也不肯浪费。此时的我只能看到志愿者们的背影，没看清楚志愿者的表情。我恣意地想象着他们此时的表情：是因为忙碌而紧锁眉头？还是因为劳累而满脸不耐烦？等我看清了所有志愿者的脸蛋，我才明白我真是“以小人之心度君子之腹”，他们的脸上无一例外地洋溢着既阳光又有朝气的微笑！天气虽凉，但志愿者的笑容却温暖着我们大家的心！

我想继续低头阅读，但却怎么也读不进去。我思索了一会儿，终于走到了一个告示栏前，认真阅读“志愿者行动”招募启事。犹豫片刻，我飞快地跑到了服务台去报名，领回了写着“志愿者”三个大字的红色袖章。

从下个周末开始，我就可以与其他志愿者一起工作，一同践行厦门精神！

窗外，微风将薄雾吹散了。丝丝冰凉的细雨从天空中飘下，它们将用自己微不足道的身躯，滋润着大地万物；片片金黄的落叶从树枝上飘落，它们在空中打转，终将落到树根旁，成为了大树的肥料。

雨润万物，叶落归根，大自然不也在践行着厦门精神吗？
