有人说父亲是山，因为他有坚实的肩膀;有人说父亲是海，因为他有宽广的胸怀，有人说父亲是天，因为他有庞大的身躯。父亲的爱总是默默的、深沉的爱我。

Some people say that the father is a mountain, because he has a strong shoulder; some people say that the father is the sea, because he has a broad mind, some people say that the fathers day, because he has a huge body. Fathers love is always silent, deep love.

父亲是无私的，付出巨大，回报稀少。例如父亲在外面辛辛苦苦的工作，可我们只在家吃喝玩乐。我们也不想一想父亲多么辛苦。

Father is selfless, great, scanty returns. For example, father is hard on the outside of the work, we can only eat at home. We dont think of how hard my father.

父亲也骂过我，那是因为他不想让我受苦想让我当一个有用的人。

Father scolded me, it is because he didnt want to let me suffer and wants me to be a useful person.

父亲我爱你，爱你对我的爱，也爱你对我的关心。

李琦——我的英语老师。初次之见，李老师的音容笑貌，宛如一支烧得滚烫发红的烙铁，便深深地印上我的心头。

爽朗洒脱的性格，朗朗有力的嗓音和永远严肃的瞳仁中，却不乏一丝母性的慈爱；微挺的鼻梁上，架着一副红框眼镜，圆圆的秀气脸庞，中等微胖的身材，在初次见面就掷地冰寒，说话丝毫不留情。俗话说得好，严师出高徒。虽然我不是那么喜欢这种方式，也不那么提倡，可是我十分欣赏这种传统的教学方式，这样同学们也会将注意力更加集中在课堂的学习上，也让课上喜欢开小差的同学闻风丧胆，从而使学习提高并且还有良好的自觉性。

听说李老师在艺术上也颇有见解，曾领导过学校的英语合唱团参加过许多大大小小的比赛，并且取得优异成绩。而且Mrs.李在教师圈中也具有魅力的人气，是位平易近人的老师，

在往后的日子里，我要再接再厉学习英语，因为我是那么地尊敬我的英语老师——Mrs.李。

In the morning, I was sleeping quarters, stretching, heard outside the rain rustling underground. I looked at the table before 6:10! Its on the bed!

Dont get up, think of todays social practice? (because the rain outside is too big), the outside window is pouring downpour, the dormitory is quiet, has not enjoyed for a long time to lie in bed in the heavy rain time, listens to the heavy rain sound this kind of relaxes the feeling. High school learning is really hard tension, forget this feeling, become insensitive! When can I grow up! Depressed.

At noon, it was not surprising that I was still in this place. (cattle mouth, in the place of practice, I believe everyone knows this place!) The sky is very dark, does not seem to welcome us! Soon, it began to rain, and then it turned into a torrential rain. See other people busy and running around looking for a place to take shelter from the rain, and I was walking in the rain, the rain is wet, but I am still very happy, because the rain is really wonderful, looking at the distant mountains, smoke, water flow, I suddenly felt the rain became my friend. I bury it long silent heart, makes me carefree; it washes all my life, let me regain confidence; with it selfless rain, to clear my head. Everything was so nice! All of a sudden, I looked around and found that only one of me was enjoying a happy rain in the heavy rain. A few lovers were still walking in the rain in the distance.

Afternoon, I ran busy all day, tired of lying in bed, thinking of what happened today and one scene, out of the window, the rain still Vujacic underground, friends with me to sleep!

In the evening, every family began to light up the lamp, firecrackers gradually began to ring. Finally came to the end of the year. Alas...... Again the old one year old.

春节，俗称：年。中国人最传统的节日。

傍晚，家家户户都开始亮起了灯，鞭炮声渐渐开始响起。终于又到了这一年的结束。唉……又老了一岁。

到了晚八点，天空便成了烟火的世界，仿佛约好了一般，每家每户都同时点燃了礼花。夜空中一瞬间便成了烟花的海洋。夜，就这样黯淡了下去。

春晚开始了，好吧，这好像成了我们的一种习俗，一家人围坐在桌前，包着饺子，看着春晚，说不出的和谐感。

话说今年的春晚可真是精彩，我最喜欢的相声小品，爆笑连连，果真没让我失望。若是时间再长一些，那真真是极好的。

也许还有很多人，还没有回家吧，也许远在台湾的舅爷爷又在想念家乡吧。这已经不重要了，因为，在这样一个节日里，我们的心都在一起了。我面对着万家灯火，微微一笑。

我们这一生，都在回家的路上。

“……3、2、1。新年快乐!”随着主持人的倒计时，新年还是款款而来。

新的一年，又开始了。

新的一年，出发了。

Internet to see the travel raiders and I have known where the most attracting

place is and where to live in. I am sure it will be a wonderful journey. There

are only several days for the coming trip, but I have been too excited to

wait.

I have a happy complete family, the family of each member is indispensable. Similarly, the family member is more precious to me than anything.

My family have a dad, aunt, grandma and grandpa, and a brother is born. Talking about father, we usually think of the word "tough", and my father is different, he is a kind and conscientious father. Dad, when I make mistakes, I always criticize me,, deadpan, when you feel the storm is about to come, when you feel very upset, he jokes with me, to comfort me. I was sick, my father always asked me with concern, analysis of the cause, give me the temperature, etc., and then criticizes I didnt take good care of yourself, let me always doubting his mind.

Aunt is my stepmother, now belly is expecting a new life. Aunt, though not my biological mother, take care for me. I grew up there are a lot of worry, for me to aunt always take the initiative to come to share, talk with me like a mother. The aunt of my life is also very concerned about, often asked me if I need something, back to me to buy clothes, hairpin, etc. Aunt also often ask me the homework finished, need her to sign, like my mother.

Grandma is love for me, when buying food, always ask what I want to eat, also by the way, bring me some fruit, snacks, good things will always leave me. Grandma is indispensable to people in the family, family life daily life depend on her to take care of, very hard.

And grandfather and fathers character, on the other hand, grandpa both from the outside, or from the character is very fierce. What we do one thing, he saw the nagging a few words, listening to the annoying. But my grandfather is very concerned about me, although say hate, but when he went out what good things would give I, a typical "more bark than bite.

This is my family, we form a harmonious family. Although sometimes also can have contradictions, there is discontent, but we love to relatives is indelible, always present.

我有一个美满完整的家庭,家里的每一个成员都是不可缺少的。同样，亲人对我来说比什么都宝贵。

我的家庭里有爸爸，阿姨，爷爷奶奶，还有一个即将出生的弟弟。说起爸爸，我们通常想到“严厉”这个词，而我的爸爸却与众不同，他是一个慈祥，尽责的爸爸。爸爸在我犯错时，总是先批评我，，面无表情，当你感到暴风雨快要来临时，当你感到非常懊恼时，他又跟我开起玩笑，来安慰我。我生病时，爸爸总是关切地问我病情，分析病因，给我量体温等，然后又会批评我没照顾好自己，常常让我猜不透他的心思。

阿姨是我的继母，现在肚子里正孕育着一个新的生命。阿姨虽然不是我的生母，但对我倍加关爱。我长大了有许多心事，阿姨总会主动来替我分忧，像妈妈一样与我谈心。阿姨对我的生活也很关心，常问我需要什么东西，还给我买衣服，发卡等。阿姨还经常问我作业做完了没有，需不需要她签字，像妈妈一样。

奶奶对我更是疼爱，买菜时总会问我想吃什么，还顺便给我带些水果，零食回来，有好东西总会留给我。奶奶是这个家庭中不可缺少的人，全家人的生活起居都靠她照顾，十分辛苦。

而爷爷和爸爸的性格相反，爷爷不论是从外表看，还是从性格看都很凶。我们做一件什么事，他看见了都要唠叨几句，听着让人心烦。但爷爷很关心我，虽然嘴上说讨厌，但他出去时遇到什么好东西都会给我，典型的“刀子嘴豆腐心”。

这就是我的家庭，我们组成了一个和谐的家庭。虽然有时候也会有矛盾，有不满，但我们对亲人的爱是不可磨灭，永远存在的。

“叮铃铃，叮铃铃……”唉，可真是烦人。在美好的星期天早上，无情的闹钟在七点的时候准时响了起来。在以前，早上我总是睡到八点。可现在，七点多就要起床了。朋友，告诉你吧，我不只是不能好好休息，还有一件事更让我懊恼，下面就听我一一道来：

就在上个星期天的早上，妈妈六点半的时候就把我叫了起来。理由是因为妈妈要参加执法考试，我便匆匆洗漱，吃了点东西就要飞奔至英语班。妈妈开着车，很快就把我送到了英语班。上课的时候，不知怎么了，我的眼皮开始打架了，脑袋也变沉了。我心里打着小鼓：“咚咚咚，千万不要睡着了。”可是后来迷迷糊糊的竟然睡着了！不知过了多久，同桌拍拍我的肩头说：“冯怡欣！快醒醒！”我这时半睡半醒的，心里想：“这是梦，是周公给我开的玩笑。”这时老师走来，拍拍我说：“忍一下，下课再睡吧。”这时，我心里一惊，暗叫不妙，猛的抬起头，这时老师就在我旁边，而班上的二十几个人早已笑成了一片，我那时快要羞死了，当时脑袋一片空白。我就这样混过了一上午，放学后我逃似的回了家，妈妈一看见我就面露不悦，说：“欣欣，你是不是上课睡觉了！”我一听，只好承认“妈，对不起。”妈妈却说：“不用说对不起，你给我回房间好好反省一下自己的行为。”虽不是什么严厉的批评，但眼泪还是止不住的往外流。

妈妈，女儿真的很累，我知道你是想提高我的成绩，但我的英语成绩还可以，并不需要上补习班，每到周末，我就比上学时还忙。妈妈，女儿真的不想英语班！

I love my little rabbits, and they love me. They are my good friends forever.

Dear mom and dad, How time flies! And it has been really seven years since

I entered the middle school, during which time I spent the unforgettable time

with my friends; what’s more, the most precious ages with my family. Instead of

calling you regularly, I thought I’d write a letter to tell you exactly what I

want to say. To be good parents is by no means an easy job as I imagined before.

It includes patience, responsibility and affection. Through these years, I here

really gained a lot from your experience. I still remember when I failed in

maths and even wanted to give it up, you just patted me on the shoulder and

encouraged me to have another try. Later, you praised me for my progress and

earnest effort, which really gave me a sense of achievement. Looking younger

children, I suddenly saw myself in teenage years. I was so rebellious and

inconsiderate at that time. You must have gone to a lot of troubles for me. I am

really sorry for the time I made you irritated. Mom and dad, thank you for being

firm with me when I went through my rebellious stage. I do appreciate what you

have done for me. I love you forever.

Yours loving boy,

Zhu Bajie

Bidding for and hosting the Olympics successfully is, perhaps, the ultimate glory for a city. However, before transforming the dream into reality, the benefits and drawbacks of bidding for the Olympics should be weighed carefully.

申办和举办奥运会成功，也许，一个城市最终的荣耀。然而，在将梦想转化为现实之前，好处和缺点的申办奥运会，应该仔细衡量。

Hosting the Olympics surely would bring about much gain to a city. Boom of the local economy, more jobs, and the possibility of generating income all sound extremely attractive to the municipal government. At the same time, better infrastructure, cleaner environment, enjoying the spectacular game with hundreds of sports elites and entertainment stars, and the opportunity of contacting people from all over the world also seem exciting to the citizens. Besides, the bidding will definitely promote the patriotic emotion and pride, as well as the moral behavior in local people. In most cases, bidding for the Olympics is well supported by both the public and the central government.

举办奥运会无疑会给这个城市带来很多好处。繁荣地方经济，更多的工作，产生收入的所有声音极具吸引力的市政府和可能性。同时，更好的基础设施，清洁的环境，享受体育精英，娱乐明星百壮观的游戏，与来自世界各地的人们交流的机会似乎也兴奋的公民。此外，招投标必将促进爱国情感和自豪感，以及当地人民的道德行为。在大多数情况下，申办奥运会是由公共部门和中央政府的大力支持。

Unfortunately, this is not the entire view of the pretty picture. If looking from another angle, the Olympic bid might bring about some side-effects to a city.

不幸的是，这不是整个认为漂亮的图片。如果从另外一个角度来看，申奥可能会带来一些副作用的城市。

First of all, the environmental impacts, including the increasing exhaust fumes of cars, more pressure on water resources, huge amount of wasted leaflets and other materials used for public activities, are most probably neglected. In order to broaden the streets, some trees may have to be cut. Near the construction site, the tiny dust may linger in the air for a long time. Reduction of farmland may be caused by the need of setting up new sports centre or accommodation facilities. These environmental consequences can be especially serious in a resource-limited and densely-populated city in a third-world country.

首先，对环境的影响，包括增加废气的汽车，更多的水资源的压力，浪费了大量的传单和其他材料用于公共活动，是最有可能被忽视。为了拓宽街道，一些树木可能被削减。在施工现场，小小的灰尘可能停留在空气中很长一段时间。耕地的减少可以通过设立新的体育中心或住宿设施的需要引起的。这些环境后果在一个资源有限和人口密集的城市，三分之一世界国家尤其严重。

Besides, if talking about the economic benefit, it should not be forgotten that a quick boosting may lead to bubble growth, which may easily crash. If not well managed and organized, the big event may not be so profitable, and the new facilities may be forever empty after the games. Yes, there have been cases that host cities ended up with enormous debts.

此外，如果谈到经济效益，它不应该忘记，迅速提高可能导致泡沫的增长，这可能很容易崩溃。如果没有良好的管理和组织，大的事件可能不那么有利可图，和新的设施，可能会永远空后的游戏。是的，有案件主办城市结束了巨大的债务。

Finally, let’s think about the low-income groups in the city. What will they get from the Olympics bidding? More tax, more fees, more expensive property prices, and higher cost of living. These definitely are not good news for them.

最后，让我们想想在城市低收入群体。将他们从奥运申办什么?更多的税收，更多的费用，更昂贵的房地产价格，和更高的生活费用。这绝对不是好消息了。

To bid or not to, this is a question. It is up to the choice of the municipal government, and the local public. After the decision, what they can do is to make the most of the benefit, and reduce the drawbacks to the least.

以招标或不，这是个问题。它是由市政府的选择，和当地的公共。决定了之后，他们所能做的是使大部分的利益，并减少缺点最少。

“叮铃铃”早读铃响了，我们的英语老师走进课室，说“请大家拿出书本早读。”

早读开始了，我们齐刷刷的拿出书本，开始读第一单元，就在这时，只见英语老师突然的用手拍了一下桌子，说“：伍文翔，你在干嘛。“我们一看，哦，原来伍文翔又没有带英语书，而且还在座位玩手指。伍文翔好像没有听到老师说的话一样，还在座位继续玩手指，英语老师看到这个情况，火气马上从肚子直接升到头顶，火冒三丈的向伍文翔走去，伍文翔看到这里时，马上不玩手指，乖乖的坐好，可是，英语老师还是怒气冲冲，在伍文翔面前大声的说”：你在干嘛。“伍文翔说“：我忘记带书本。”英语老师听到这句话后，大发雷霆，大声的吼伍文翔说“：你没有带书本，不会和同学一起看吗？要在那里玩手指”伍文翔说“：我不是和梁晓彤一起看吗？”英语老师听到这句话后，脸涨得红彤彤的，说“：你们离得这么远，怎么看，你有望远镜吗？”伍文翔看到老师的脸色，变得面如土色，英语老师拿着一根棍子用力的去打伍文翔的手，英语老师打完伍文翔之后，伍文翔坐在座位大声的哭，英语老师又大声的对我们说”以后谁要是和伍文翔一样，上课做别的东西的话，就和伍文翔一样的下场。”

这就是我们的英语老师发火的时候。

On the morning of the first day of the year, when the sky was light and the whole family set off firecrackers, the sound was deafening and I got up. As soon as I was out of the house, I saw all the houses in the house. Children in the streets are setting off firecrackers, others are playing, and children are laughing and laughing all over the street. Shops are also open for business.

The most exciting thing is the noon. The streets are crowded with people. People jostling with each other. Some adults with their children in the shopping, some children with their beloved toy gladly running around and other children cried and cried out, want to call to buy a toy. The shops in the streets were bewildering, with toys, barbeques, books and clothes. Some big sisters were talking and laughing, and some businessmen were gushing. The heat is in the air.

The night was coming. As I looked up at the night sky, a lot of fireworks were coming into the sky and the colors of the fireworks were lit up and the sky was decorated with colors. I went up to the roof and had a bird ;s-eye view. As if the whole world were enveloped in light.

The Easter we celebrate today is a combination1 of different traditions. Partly, it comes from old festivals2 to celebrate Spring. And partly it comes from the Christian celebration of the rebirth3 of Jesus Christ.Most people agree that the word "Easter" comes from the Anglo-Saxon4 Goddess Eastre, a symbol of Spring. It is easy to see how " Eastre timev" became " Easter time" .As a chief Christian festival, Easter is celebrated on the first Sunday after

the first full moon after the 1st day of Spring. It can be as early as March 22, or as late as April 25! Many dates of the Christian5 calendar are dependent on Easter.The celebrations of Easter have many customs and legends that have nothing to do with Christianity6. Of all the symbols associated7 with Easter, the egg, the symbol of richness8 and new life, is the most important. The customs and traditions of using eggs have been associated with Easter for centuries.Originally, Easter eggs were painted with bright colors to represent the sunlight of spring and were used in Easter-egg rolling contests or given as gifts. After they were colored and printed with various designs, the eggs were exchanged by lovers and romantic admirers. In the Middle Ages, eggs were traditionally given at Easter to the servants. In Germany, eggs were given to children along with other Easter gifts.
