Learning Foreign Languages

In schools all over the world boys and girls are learning foreign languages。 Many adults are

doing so in their spare time。 Everybody knows his own language， but to know another is very useful。

Which is the best way to learn a language? We should remember we all learnt our own language well when we were children。 If we could learn a second language in the same way， it would not seem so difficult。 Think what a small child does。 It listens to what people say and tries to imitate what it

hears。 When it wants something， it has to ask for it。 It is using the language。 It is talking and thinking in it all the time。 If one has to use a second language all the time， he would learn it quickly。

It is important to remember， also， that we learn our own language by hearing people speaking it not by seeing what they write。 We imitate what we hear。 In school， though you learn to read and write as well as to hear and speak， it is best to learn all new words through the ear。 Of course you also learn to read them， spell them and write them。

世界各地的学校中孩子们都在学习外语。很多成年人在业余时间也在学习外语。每人都懂自己的母语，但知道另一门语言也非常有用。

学习外语最好的方法是什么呢?我们应当记得我们是孩子的时候，自己的母语都学得非常好。如果我们能以同样的方式学习第二种语言，那看起来就不会这么难了。想想小孩是怎样做的。孩子听人们说话然后设法模仿听到的东西。当他需要什么东西的时候，必须去要。他是在使用语言。他一直在用语言说话和思考。如果一个人必须始终

使用第二语言，他就会学得很快。

而且，记住我们学习母语时是通过听别人说话而不是看别人写字，这也很重要。我们模仿我们听到的。 学校中，虽然你除了学习听说，还学习读写，但学习所有新单词最好是通过耳朵。当然你也要学会阅读、拼写和写作。

长大后，我理想中的职业是想当一名小学教师。

我的理想是当一名小学教师。因为我觉得作好一名好的教师并不容易，而且我觉得老师是一根蜡烛燃烧着自己，照亮了别人;老师是一位辛勤的园丁，哺育着祖国的花朵;老师是春蚕，奉献自己，装饰别人;老师是一根粉笔，牺牲自己，留下了知识……因此，我非常崇拜老师。

如果我的理想实现了。我一定先让学生们逃脱对学习的烦恼。我还会把我会的东西耐心地教他们，我不仅要教我的学生知识，我也要教会我的学生们如何做人，使他们成为全面发展的好学生，成为国家的栋梁。让学生们有一颗爱心和宽阔的胸怀，对人要仁慈，不为小事而烦恼。俗话说：记人之善，忘人之过。学生们要学会宽恕别人，给别人一个改过自新的机会。我还会教他们尊敬师长，有礼貌，继续发扬中华民族的美德，做一位合格的小公民。教会他们诚实守信，说到做到，不可以说话不算数，并给他们讲宋庆龄小时候诚实守信的故事，让他们从中受到教育，做一个诚实守信的好学生。

History

Historian Nicholas Rogers, exploring the origins of Halloween, notes that while "some folklorists have detected its origins in the Roman feast of Pomona, the goddess of fruits and seeds, or in the festival of the dead called Parentalia, it is more typically linked to the Celtic festival of Samhain, whose original spelling was Samuin (pronounced sow-an or sow-in)".The name is derived from Old Irish and means roughly "summers end".Snap-Apple Night (1832) by Daniel Maclise.Depicts apple bobbing and divination games at a Halloween party in Blarney, Ireland.The name Halloween and many of its present-day traditions derive from the Old English era.

The word Halloween is first attested in the 16th century and represents a Scottish variant of the fuller All-Hallows-Even ("evening"), that is, the night before All Hallows Day.[4] Although the phrase All Hallows is found in Old English (ealra hālgena mæssedæg, mass-day of all saints), All-Hallows-Even is itself not attested until 1556.

11月1日 -- 万圣节 All Saints Day

11月2日 -- 墨西哥的鬼节 Day of Death

万圣节(All Saints Day, All Hallows Day或Hallowmas) 是每年11月1日的欧美大节日。

Halloween 是 All Hallows Eve 的缩写，万圣节前夜的意思，指10月31日的晚上。

For thousands of years people have been celebrating different holidays and festivals at the end of October. The Celts celebrated it as Samhain (pronounced “sow-in”, with “sow” rhyming with cow)。 The Irish English dictionary published by the Irish Texts Society defines the word as follows:

“Samhain, All Hallowtide, the feast of the dead in Pagan and Christian times, signalizing the close of harvest and the initiation of the winter season, lasting till May, during which troops (esp. the Fiann) were quartered. Faeries were imagined as particularly active at this season. From it the half year is reckoned. also called Feile Moingfinne (Snow Goddess)。(1) The Scottish Gaelis Dictionary defines it as ”Hallowtide. The Feast of All Soula. Sam + Fuin = end of summer.“(2) Contrary to the information published by many organizations, there is no archaeological or literary evidence to indicate that Samhain was a deity. The Celtic Gods of the dead were Gwynn ap Nudd for the British, and Arawn for the Welsh. The Irish did not have a ”lord of death“ as such.

The Celts believed that every year on the last day of October, the souls of the dead visited the earth.www.

When the Romans conquered the Celts in the first century A.D., they added parts of their festivals, Feralia and Pomona to the tradition. Feralia was a festival to honor the dead and Pomona was a harvest festival named after the goddess of fruit (apples) and trees.

Around the eigth century, the Christian church made November 1 All Saints Day to honor all of the saints that didnt have a special day of their own. Over the years these festivals combined, the mass held on All Saints Day was called Allhallowmas (the mass of all Hallows - saintly people)。 The night before was known as All Hallows Eve. Eventually this name became Halloween.

In the 1800s, as a lot of people emigrated to the U.S., the holidays and traditions of different cultures merged. Halloween was not always a happy time. October 31, or the night before took on other names. Some called it Devils or Hell night, to others it was mischief night. Here in Vermont, the night before is called cabbage night. To some people this became a time to play tricks on others. Some of these tricks were not fun at all. Luckily, community groups and individuals took action and started to change Halloween into a family event. Dressing up in costumes and going ”trick or treating“, costume parades, community parties and Fall festivals are some of the ways that Halloween is celebrated today.

Other countries have different Fall festivals to honor the deceased.

The Festival of the Dead is one of the most important happenings in both Palermo and the rest of Sicily. The second of November is a festival day for the children of Palermo as, according to tradition,they were made to believe that their dead relatives would return the night before and leave them traditional sweets and cakes on the table (Martorana fruit, which is almond paste made into the shape of different fruit)。 They would also receive puppets of boiled sugar and toys. Its one way of keeping the memory of their dead relatives and loved ones alive.

一年中最”闹鬼“的这天夜里，各种妖魔鬼怪、 海盗、 外星来客和巫婆们纷纷出动。在基督纪元以前，凯尔特人在夏未举行仪式感激上苍和太阳的恩惠。

当时的占卜者点燃并施巫术以驱赶据说在四周游荡的妖魔怪。后来，罗马人用果仁和苹果来庆祝的丰收节与凯尔特人的10月31日溶合了。

在中世纪，人们穿上动物造型的服饰、 戴上可怕的面具是想在万圣节前夜驱赶黑夜中的鬼怪。尽管後来基督教代替了凯尔特和罗马的宗教活动，早期的习俗还是保留下来了。现在，孩子们带着开玩笑的心理穿戴上各种服饰和面具参加万圣节舞会，这些舞会四周的墙上往往悬挂着用纸糊的巫婆、 黑猫、 鬼怪和尸骨，窗前和门口则吊着龇牙裂嘴或是面目可憎的南瓜灯笼。孩子们还常常试图咬住悬挂着的苹果。

美国和加拿大的孩子们在这天穿戴上古怪的服饰去按邻居家的门铃，并按传统发出”是款待我还是要我耍花招“的威胁。邻居们不管是否被吓着，总是准备了一些糖果、 苹果等点心，孩子们则一一收入自己的袋内。

万圣节其实不是基督教的节日。2500年前，爱尔兰的凯尔特人(Celts)以10月31日为一年的最後一日，11月1日是新一年的开始，也象徵冬天的来临。

凯尔特人相信死亡之神Samhain在10月31日的晚上会和鬼魂一起重返人间，寻找替身。因此他们燃点火炬，焚烧动物以作为死亡之神的献礼。还会用动物的头或皮毛做成的服饰打扮自己，发出古怪的声音，使死亡之神认不出自己，避过灾难。这就是今天万圣节化妆舞会的由来。过了当晚，鬼魂回到阴间，一切回复平静。

基督教兴起，教徒沿袭万圣节传统，万圣节的意义慢慢改为纪念为献身於神而死亡的人(holies)。

附带一提，11月2日是墨西哥的鬼节(Los Dias de los Muertos, Day of the Dead)。当天家家户户都烘烤动物造型的面包和煮鸡肉等食物，并在供桌上面放置玩具，以期待早逝的孩童们回到家中玩耍。也可以陈列鲜花、 水果、 照片和彩绘的骷髅头，接待仙逝长辈。

墨西哥人认为，鬼魂和人一样需要及时行乐，所以鬼节宛若一场嘉年华会，人们带着面具到处游走，吃骷髅形状的糖，面包上还装饰有鬼的形像。黄昏时刻，全家人一起到墓园清理墓地，妇女们或跪或坐整夜祈祷，男人们交谈或唱歌，在子夜中烛光忽闪忽灭充满了整个墓园，游唱歌者为已逝亡者的灵魂高歌吟唱。

Mathematics was too difficult for me, the teacher spoke so fast that I

could not understand. I failed every math exam, my dad was very angry, he

wouldnt let me watch TV, or let me go out, I was very sad. The math teacher

always asks me to go to the office and tell me the problem. I am not afraid to

make mistakes, because I can correct them. I keep practicing, speed up my

problem, and dont forget to preview and review. In the most recent exam, I

achieved excellent results in maths. A good learner has many good learning

habits.

数学对我来说太难了，老师讲的太快，以至于我不能听懂。每次数学考试我都不及格，我的爸爸很生气，他不让我看电视，也不让我出去玩，我很难过。数学老师总是让我去办公室，给我讲题。我开始不害怕犯错，因为我还可以改正。我不断的练习，加快了我的做题速度，并且不忘记预习和复习。在最近的一次考试里，我的数学成绩达到了优秀。一个好的学习者有很多好的学习习惯。

Last Saturday--April 28th, my classmates and I went to the park near my

school. Can you guess what we did there?Not for amusement but to take part in a

volunteer labour.

上周六,4月28日,我和我的同学去了学校附近的公园里。你能猜猜我们去做什么了吗?不是去玩而是去参加公益劳动。

We reached the park at nine oclock. The whole class was divided into three

groups. I was in Group Three.

我们九点钟到达公园。全班被分为三组。我在笫三组。公益活动

Each group had different tasks. Group One planted trees and watered

flowers. Group Two was told to pick up litter left by the tourists and cleaned

all the benches. The group that I was in wiped all the equipment in the

Childrens Playground. All of us worked hard.

每组有不同的任务。第一组种树和浇花。第二组被告知去接游客留下的垃圾,清理所有的长椅。的我在擦儿童游乐场的所有设备。我们都努力工作。

Before noon we finished working. Each of us felt a little bit tired, but we

were happy because we had done a good deed.

中午之前我们结束了劳动。我们每个人都感觉有点累,但我们很快乐,因为我们做了一件好事。

The food in Shanghai disagree me. I think the food in Beijing is the most

delicious. Seafood in Beijing is very fresh. Prawns in restaurant are all alive.

And there are many food that you can’t see in other cities. It is very cheap

that you eat seafood in Beijing. The less money you pay, the more enjoyable you

are. Maybe my stomach is ill. Whatever food I eat, I am still thin. And I am too

thin, I want to be a litter fatter. So I must eat more.

食物在上海不赞同我。我觉得食物在北京是最美味的。海鲜在北京是很新鲜。大虾在餐厅都活着。而且有很多的食物，你不能看到其他城市推广。你吃海鲜在北京是很便宜的。你付出的更少的钱，更多的愉快你。也许我的胃就是生病。我吃什么食物，我还是薄。而我太瘦了，我想成为一个垃圾箱腰包。所以我必须多吃。

In the past hundred years, there have heen frequent natural disasters, such

as floods, droughts, mud-rock flows, seismic sea waves, earthquakes, windstorms

and the stretching of new deserts. The disasters have killed millions upon

millions of people, destroyed countless homes, and wiped out numerous pieces of

fertile land.

Now more and more people become aware that those disasters have much to do

with what we have done to the earth. We have cut down too many trees in the

forests,we have badly polluted the environment, we have shocked our own

home-planet time and against with tremendously powerful explosions of nuclear

bombs. As a result, climates have become abnormal, rainwater rushes down

hillsides angrily, and the underground energy goes up to revenge itself on

us.

The earth is our only home-planet. It is urgent for us to stop damaging it,

and to do our best to protect it and make it a lovely place suitable to live in,

for we have nowhere to go and survive except where we are now.

I have a friend, eternal good friends; I have a friendship, true friendship priceless; My friend, the real close friends; My friendship; Colorful real friendship.

Name, my friend, is very pleasing to the ear, called independently harmonics is "commitment", representing the "keeping the promise." But, to tell the truth, she also really keep promise, the following case is enough to prove her promise.

One day, I went to her house to play, took a fancy to her a "cpaing general mobilization", but she was watching, I begged her to lend me. She is also a dilemma: to borrow for me, or did you see? "So, I read it during the day, night delivered to your home to see you, ok?" "Well, well!" I should be a way. That night, I and his father in the xinhua bookstore, my father saw I like very much, just bought me a book. I returned home, just call independently, her up, immediately said: "to push books? Waiting for you, Ill send the past!" Say that finish, just hang up with a "bang", I have no language.

Five minutes later, she arrived at my home, see my hand and she the same book, somehow looked at me: "you, how can you...?" I cry: "my father bought me, wanted to call to tell you, let you dont have to send, who knows you over the phone just hang up." "Well, then I walked first, goodbye!"

Ha, ha, ha, you say that my friend is a promise!

我有朋友，永恒的好朋友;我有友谊，无价的真友谊;我的朋友，真实的亲朋友;我的友谊;五彩的实友谊。

我的朋友，名字很悦耳，叫陈诺，谐音是“承诺”，代表着“信守承诺”。不过，说实在的，她也真的信守承诺，以下的事例就足够证明她信守承诺了。

有一天，我去她家玩，看中了她的一本《皮皮鲁总动员》，可是她正在看，我恳求她先借我看。她也左右为难：是先借我呢，还是自己看?“这样吧，我白天看完它，晚上送到你家给你看，好吗?”“嗯，好吧!”我应道。当天晚上，我跟爸爸到了新华书店，爸爸看见我很喜欢，就给我买了一本。我回到家，就给陈诺打电话，她一接，马上就说：“来催书啦?你等着，我马上就送过去!”说完，就“砰”地一声挂电话了，我无语。

五分钟后，她赶到我家里，看到我手里拿的和她一模一样地书，莫明其妙地看着我：“你，你怎么……?”我哭笑不得：“我爸爸给我买的，本想电话告诉你，让你不用送了，谁知道你电话一下子就挂了。”“哦，那我就先走了，再见!”

哈哈哈，你说我的朋友是不是信守承诺啊!
