高二英语作文：何如维持友谊(最新20篇)

The National Day is a designated date on which celebrations mark the nationhood of a country.(国庆节) Often the National Day will be a national holiday.

The National Day is often taken as the date on which a state or territory achieved independence. Other dates such as the countrys patron saint day, or a significant historic date are sometimes used. Most countries have a single National Day per year, though a few, for example, India and Pakistan, have more than one. Besides that, each of the two special administrative regions of the Peoples Republic of China, namely Hong Kong and Macao, celebrate the day of the establishment of the special administrative region, as well as the National Day of the Peoples Republic of China.

The importance attached to the National Day, and the degree to which it is celebrated, vary enormously from country to country. In France, for example, National Day is 14 July and is known as Bastille Day. It is widely celebrated and the French Tricolour is much in evidence, while the President of the Republic attends a military parade on the Champs-élysées of Paris. In the United States, the Fourth of July celebrations are widely celebrated with fireworks and barbecues. In the Republic of Ireland, St. Patricks Day, March 17, has been the National Day and a Public Holiday for many years, and in recent years it has been observed as a full Public Holiday in Northern Ireland too. However, in the rest of the United Kingdom the constituent countries patron saints days are low-key affairs.

Most countries have a fixed date National Day, but some have movable dates. An example here is Jamaica, which celebrates its National Day on the first Monday in August. This commemorates independence from the United Kingdom which was attained on Monday, 6 August 1962 - the first Monday in August of that year. Another example is Thailand which celebrates the birthday of the King on 5 December. This date will change on the accession of the heir to the throne.

In our daily life, if we get on harmoniously with our friends, we’ll feel more joyous. But we’ll feel lonely without friends.When our friends feel upset or get ill, we shouldn’t ignore them or look down upon them. On the contrary, we ought to calm them down, show our love and concern to them and try our best to help them overcome the hardships. Sometimes we may have some misunderstandings or disagreements with our friends, thus we had better have a discussion with them and try to accept their good ideas instead of quarreling with them. As long as we can follow these good suggestions, we’ll find it easy to make more friends.

在日常生活中，如果我们跟朋友相处融洽，我们的心情也会更加愉悦。然而若是没有朋友则会觉得孤单。当我们的朋友忧伤或是生病时，我们不应冷落或轻起他们，相反地，我们要帮他们平抚心情，尽自己最大的努力关心他，帮助他渡过难关。有时候我们会与朋友产生误会，发生分歧，这时我们最好是跟朋友好好谈谈而不要争吵，尽量理解他的好的想法。只要我们遵循这些建议，我们会发现想要结交更多的朋友很简单。

As it is known to us all, there are 55 minority groups in China, each with its traditional customs, costumes and culture. Now let’s take a look at the Tibetan Minority.

The Tibetan Minority group live in Qinghai, Gansu, Sichuan and Yunnan Province. And the highest ridge in the world─beautiful and mysterious Tibet is their major habitat .

As the fertilized prairie stretches around the habitants as far as the eyes can see, most people live on animal husbandry, raising sheep, goats, cattle and growing a special kind of plant called Qingke. On account of the unique climate, people often wear warm and comfortable boots in winter, and they are always dressed in delicate robes which are made of the fur of sheep. Often they take off one sleeve of the clothes and tie it around their waists in order to work easily and use it as warm quilts at night.

Both men and women there like wearing silver ornaments, which look very mysterious and full of magical power. And they are good at singing and dancing, and the men there can have braids too. When they meet an important guest, they will present him or her a Hada, a piece of long white silk cloth to show their respect. And they will also treat the guest to a special kind of drink called Suyou Tea, which some people find hard to enjoy.

Besides, the habitants have developed both their own written and spoken languages, and the long poems they wrote play an important role in Chinese literature. And there are many well-protected culture relics as well, taking the grand Budala Palace as an example. It is a historical museum as well as an art treasury, where people can share their spirit belief in Buddhism and get artistic entertainment of the carved paintings and the beautifully-written chirographies.

The Tibetan ethnic group is also famous for its strange custom in funeral. Thinking that the soul belongs to the sky after a person dies, they usually put the body on a platform outdoors, spray on it and wait the condors to come to eat the body. In this way, they believe the soul goes up to the sky.

The Tibetan Minority is brimming over with deep emotions. The people there are very zealous and hospitable and they live freely and happily on the spacious grassland. Their history and culture contribute to the diversity of China, so we certainly should protect them and get them popularized and let them receive great respect they deserve.

With the rapid development and the overpopulated in this society, more and

more people rushing into the big cities for personal development. So, the

housing problems in the big cities is becoming more and more serious.

In my humble opinion, there are several ways to slove this problems. First

of all, we can expend the cities, and build more apartment in the country. The

fresh air and clean water will attract young people to live there. What’ more,

the housing price will be lower than the big cities. Second, the government

should control the price of the house. If the house is too expensive, many

people may not be able to afford a house on their own. The government should

build some cheap apartment for the poor, the young people. Last but not least,

we should have more skyscapes, the land is limited, we need more space to

support people to have a good living condition.

A good living condition is the key to social stability. if our country have

enough houses, the pressure can be relieved to some degree. And our people can

live a better environment.

Its about one and a half month away from the Chinese New Year, It is a

festival celebrated by the Chinese people at the beginning of the lunar calendar

year.

As of the Chinese traditional customs, our parents and grandparents will

sweep every corner of the house and clean the windows until they gleam, and

washing clothes, buying foods and goods for the new years future use and

presents.

Children will be the most benefited group during this feast period. One

month before that, they are expecting the new clothes, delicious foods. The

firecrackers and the years allowance for their increased ages.

In recent years, with the rising of the standard of life, Chinese tend to

make various holiday plans to spend a different and meaningful new year. Such as

traveling abroad, or be absorbed in their hobbies, and even work.

Why today we try to spend our Chinese new year in such a different way? I

think thats because this is a era of free life and personality high-ranking.

Though there are still something traditional, our young generation is attempting

to make something new and suitable for ourselves. And we would like to take

something really worth to be cherished in our memorable treasures. Thats

amazing and wonderful!

Ill always keep in mind that the Chinese new year is a great feast

inherited from our ancestors, but if necessary, I would like to enjoy it by some

ways personal.

When you need a lot of money, you first thing you do is to borrow money from your friend, while doing this sometimes may do harm to your friendship. First, your friends may not have too much money at hand, he or she maybe suffer from the lack of cash flow at that moment. Everyone has their own worries, when you borrow money, they always have to struggle for a while, their hesitations make you begin to doubt your friendship is true or whether your friends treat your as real one. Second, most people cant return the money in time, because they have all kinds of difficulties, this will make your friends in a awkward situation. They are considering whether to ask you return the money, if they do, this will make you embarrassed; If they dont, they will lack of money. So it is better not to borrow money from your friend.

当你需要很多钱的时候，你第一件事做的就是向你朋友借钱，然而这样做有时候会伤害你的友谊。第一，你的朋友也许没有很多的钱在手上，他或她可能遭遇着流动资金的不足。每个人都有他们自己的担忧，当你借钱的时候，他们总要挣扎一会，他们的犹豫让你开始怀疑你们之间的友谊是否真实或者你的朋友是否把你真当朋友。第二，大部分人不能及时还钱，因为他们有各种各样的困难，这会让你朋友出于尴尬的境地。他们考虑着是否叫你还钱，他们叫了，会让你尴尬;如果不叫，他们就缺钱。所以最好不要向你的朋友借钱。

每个人在成长的道路上都会遇到挫折，我也不例外，记得那是三年级下学期开学时一个周三下午第三节课发生的事情。

那天下午课活课，孙老师安排我们自由活动。于是大家就三人一组，五人一群在操场玩游戏。我和周颖，杨思怡一组，我和杨思怡玩长绳正起劲的时候，看见周颖愁眉苦脸地从三楼楼梯上走下来，我心想：“又是哪个小淘气欺负她了呢?”于是我赶紧跑上前说：“周颖，你怎么了，我去拿短绳，和我们一起玩吧。”见她一直沉默不语。我以为她答应了，我就去拿短绳了。谁知道，周颖看见我拿来了短绳，顿时火冒三丈，大声地责问我说：“你干什么，我还没玩长绳，你给我短绳做什么?”我也生气地对她吼道：“我看你愁眉苦脸，以为你不喜欢长绳，所以特意去拿了短绳给你，你居然还说我”。周颖不甘示弱地说：“我有说不喜欢长绳吗，真是的!”说完转身扬长而去，只剩我一头雾水傻傻地站着。

到了晚上，我翻来覆去睡不着，脑海里浮现的都是白天和周颖吵架的情景，久久不能入睡。心想，我和周颖一直是多么要好的朋友，而如今却为一件小事吵架，周颖之前还帮了我的，我怎么能这样对她呢?真是不应该!想着想着，不知道什么时候睡着了。

第二天早上，在上楼梯口我遇到了周颖，我们一前一后地往教室走去，谁都不说话。突然周颖停下来，转回身，打破了沉寂，对我说：“张安祺，对不起，我昨天不应该那样说你”。我顿时脸上通红，也对周颖说：“昨天，我的态度也不好，应该是我对你说对不起，以后我们还是一起玩吧”。说完，我们会心地笑了。

从这件事情中，我明白了一个道理，同学们之间要相互帮助，不能为一丁点小事就吵架，这样大家才能和平共处，友谊长存。

Zhang Dong is my best friend. He entered our class last semester. He is a

boy. Both of us are good at English, so we often have a chat in English in our

spare time. After school, we often play football together on the playground. He

runs so fast that I can not catch up with him. He is an excellent student. He

not only gets good marks in all subjects but also is very kind and modest. He

loves popular songs and also classical music.

There are three people in his family and he is the only child. His father

is a doctor and his mother is a Beijing Opera actress. Though Zhang Dongs

family is wealthy, he is usually simply dressed. He has a dream which is to be a

lawyer.

Such is my friend, a clever and kind boy. He is highly praised by the

teachers and students.

People travel by plane, by train, by ship, by bus. To me, the best way of

traveling on a summer vacation is to go on foot.

My preference depends on the purpose of the travel. On a summer vacation I

travel to refresh myself and to see the countryside. When I use my feet and walk

on a grass covered path along a river or among the hills I feel detached from

the noise of the city and closer to the nature. And when I travel on foot I get

more freedom. I can plan my own schedule. I can choose my own route. I can stop

where I like. And I can see things and people that I might miss if I travel on a

train or on a bus. net

When faster and more convenient ways for travel are becoming available, I

still favor using my own feet. I get much pleasure from it. People travel by

plane, by train, by ship, by bus. To me, the best way of traveling on a summer

vacation is to go on foot.

England is a nation in northwest Europe and the largest and most populous constituent country of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Its inhabitants account for more than 83% of the total population of the United Kingdom, whilst the mainland territory of England occupies most of the southern two-thirds of the island of Great Britain and shares land borders with Scotland to the north and Wales to the west. Elsewhere, it is bordered by the North Sea, Irish Sea, Atlantic Ocean, and English Channel.

England was formed as a country during the 10th century and takes its name from the Angles — one of a number of Germanic tribes who settled in the territory during the 5th and 6th centuries. The capital city of England is London, which is the largest city in the British Isles, capital of the United Kingdom and one of the worlds Global Cities.

England ranks as one of the most influential and far-reaching centres of cultural development in the world;it is the place of origin of both the English language and the Church of England, was the historic centre of the British Empire, and the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution.

The Kingdom of England was an independent state until 1 May 1707, when the Acts of Union resulted in a political union with the Kingdom of Scotland to create the Kingdom of Great Britain.

Englands National Day is St Georges Day (Saint George being the patron saint), and it is celebrated annually on 23 April.

i never considered myself unique, but people are constantly telling me, "you are a miracle." to me, i was just an ordinary "guy" with realistic goals and big dreams. i was a 19-year-old student at the university of texas and well on my way toward fulfilling my "big dream" of one day becoming an orthopedic surgeon.

我从未觉得自己与众不同，但人们常对我说：“你的生命是个奇迹。”对我而言，我只是一个普通人，有着现实的目标和远大的理想。我曾是德克萨斯大学一名十九岁的大学生，在通向理想之路上信步前行，梦想有一天我会成为一名整形外科医生。

on the night of february 17, 1981 i was studying for an organic chemistry test at the library with sharon, my girlfriend of three years. sharon had asked me to drive her back to her dormitory as it was getting quite late. we got into my car, not realizing that just getting into a car would never quite be the same for me again. i quickly noticed that my gas gauge was registered on empty so i pulled into a nearby convenience store to buy 2.00 worth of gas. "ill be back in two minutes," i yelled at sharon as i closed the door. but instead, those two minutes changed my life forever.

1981年2月17日的晚上，我和交往三年的女友沙伦在为有机化学测试做准备。因为太晚了，沙伦叫我驾车把她送回宿舍。我们钻进汽车，谁能想到在今后的生命中我不能再如此矫健地重复这样一个简单的动作。我很快发现油表空了，于是我把车泊在附近的一家便利店旁，想买两块钱的汽油。“我两分钟就回来，”我关上车门朝沙伦喊到。但就是这短短的两分钟改变了我一生的命运，永远地改变了。

entering the convenience store was like entering the twilight zone. on the outside i was a healthy, athletic, pre-med student, but on the inside i was just another statistic of a violent crime. i thought i was entering an empty store, but suddenly i realized it was not empty at all. three robbers were in the process of committing a robbery and my entrance into the store caught them by surprise. one of the criminals immediately shoved a .38 caliber handgun to my head, ordered me to the cooler, pushed me down on the floor, and pumped a bullet into the back of my head -- execution style. he obviously thought i was dead because he did not shoot me again. the trio of thieves finished robbing the store and left calmly.

进入这家便利店就如同踏上了阴阳间的奈何桥，门外的我还是个健康的，活蹦乱跳的未婚大学生，而门内的我却成了暴力犯罪的又一个牺牲品。我还以为店里没有人，但我突然发现我错了——有三个匪徒正在打劫这家店，而我的进入让他们有些惊慌失措。其中一个匪徒迅速掏出一把口径为38毫米的手枪用力指着我的头，勒令我走到冷冻机旁，然后把我推倒在地，像执行死刑般从后面朝我头部开了一枪。他没再朝我开第二枪，显然他以为我死了。打劫完后三个劫匪逃之夭夭。

meanwhile, sharon wondered why i had not returned. after seeing the three men leave the store she really began to worry as i was the last person she saw entering the store. she quickly went inside to look for me, but saw no one-only an almost empty cash register containing one check and several pennies. quickly she ran down each aisle shouting, "mike, mike!"

与此同时，沙伦对我的不归忧心忡忡。看到这三个匪徒离开便利店后她真的很担心，因为我是她见到的最后一个进入店里的人。她赶快跑进店来找我，只见几乎被一扫而空的收银机上挂着一张帐单，还有几枚硬币散落在上面，四周无人。她在货架间飞快地跑着、喊着：“迈克，迈克!”

just then the attendant appeared from the back of the store shouting, "lady, get down on the floor. ive just been robbed and shot at!"

这时一名服务员从店后面走出来叫到：“小姐，过来一下，我刚才被打劫了，他们还向我开了枪。”

sharon quickly dropped to the floor screaming, "have you seen my boyfriend? he has auburn hair." the man did not reply but went back to the cooler where he found me choking on my vomit. the attendant quickly cleaned my mouth and then called for the police and an ambulance.

沙伦跌跌撞撞地过来哭喊到：“你见到我的男朋友了吗?长褐色头发的。” 那人默默走到冷冻机旁，找到了我，此时呕吐快令到我窒息了。他赶忙帮我擦干了嘴，叫了警察和救护车。

sharon was in shock. she was beginning to understand that i was hurt, but she could not begin to comprehend or imagine the severity of my injury.

沙伦被吓坏了。渐渐地她才明白我受伤了，但是她根本想象不到伤势的严重性。

when the police arrived they immediately called the homicide division as they did not think i would survive and the paramedic reported that she had never seen a person so severely wounded survive. at 1:30 a.m. my parents who lived in houston, were awakened by a telephone call from brackenridge hospital advising them to come to austin as soon as possible for they feared i would not make it through the night.

警察来了，他们很快断定是杀人案，因为没人相信我还能活过来，而救护人员说她从来没有见过伤势如此严重的人可以逃离死劫。下午一点半，我住在奥斯汀的父母被来自布莱肯瑞吉医院的电话铃惊醒，医院通知他们尽快赶到奥斯汀，因为他们认为我熬不过当晚了。

but i did make it through the night and early in the morning the neurosurgeon decided to operate. however, he quickly informed my family and sharon that my chances of surviving the surgery were only 40/60. if this were not bad enough, the neurosurgeon further shocked my family by telling them what life would be like for me if i beat the odds and survived. he said i probably would never walk, talk, or be able to understand even simple commands.

但那晚我挺了过来，第二天清晨神经外科医生决定给我动手术。但他立即告知我的家人和沙伦我存活的机会只有百分之四十。然后他还雪上加霜地告诉我的家人，向他们描述如果我万幸活下来将面临怎样的生活——我可能再也不会走路了，不会说话了，甚至不能理解一些极其简单的命令。这些对我的家人来说都是莫大的打击。

my family was hoping and praying to hear even the slightest bit of encouragement from that doctor. instead, his pessimistic words gave my family no reason to believe that i would ever again be a productive member of society. but once again i beat the odds and survived the three and a half hours of surgery. granted, i still could not talk, my entire right side was paralyzed and many people thought i could not understand, but at least i was stable. after one week in a private room the doctors felt i had improved enough to be transferred by jet ambulance to del oro rehabilitation hospital in houston.

本来家里人祈望能从医生的口中听到一点点鼓励的话，而他悲观的言语让他们没理由相信我还会成为一个对社会有用的人。在经历了三个半小时的手术之后，我再次侥幸地活了下来。医生的话得到了应验，我不能说话，整个右边的身体瘫痪了，许多人认为我变傻了，但至少我身体状况是稳定的。在私人看护病房里呆了一个星期后，医生觉得我已经好转了许多，并可以坐救护飞机转到奥斯汀的德欧洛康复医院。

my hallucinations, coupled with my physical problems, made my prognosis still very bleak. however, as time passed my mind began to clear and approximately six weeks later my right leg began to move ever so slightly. within seven weeks my right arm slowly began to move and at eight weeks i uttered my first few words. my speech was extremely difficult and slow in the beginning, but at least it was a beginning. i was starting to look forward to each new day to see how far i would progress. but just as i thought my life was finally looking brighter i was tested by the hospital euro-psychologist. she explained to me that judging from my test results she believed that i should not focus on returning to college but that it would be better to set more "realistic goals."

意识上的幻觉和生理上的病疾使我的病情预断非常的渺茫。然而时间的飞逝使我的意识开始变得清晰，大约六个星期以后我的右腿可以轻微地活动了，七周以后我的右臂开始缓慢地活动了，八周以后我终于开口说话了。说话对于我非常地艰难并且开始的时候说得很慢，但是总算是开头了。我开始寄希望于新的一天的到来，祈望着新的进步。但正当我以为生活总算初露光明的时候，医院里有个欧洲来的心理学家对我做了测试。她向我解释到，从检测的结果来看她坚信我不能再重返学校，劝我对此不要抱有任何希望，希望我最好树立些更现实点的目标。

upon hearing her evaluation i became furious for i thought, "who is she to tell me what i can or cannot do. she does not even know me. i am a very determined and stubborn person!" i believe it was at that very moment that i decided i would somehow, someday return to college.

她的这番结论让我怒不可遏，“她是谁，凭什么告诉我能做什么或不能做什么。她根本不了解我。我是很坚强而固执的人!”我相信就在那时我决定无论如何，总有一天我会返回学校的。

it took me a long time and a lot of hard work but i finally returned to the university of texas in the fall of 1983 -- a year and a half after almost dying. the next few years in austin were very difficult for me, but i truly believe that in order to see beauty in life you have to experience some unpleasantness. maybe i have experienced too much unpleasantness, but i believe in living each day to the fullest, and doing the very best i can. and each new day was very busy and very full, for besides attending classes at the university i underwent therapy three to five days each week at brackenridge hospital. if this were not enough i flew to houston every other weekend to work with tom williams, a trainer and executive who had worked for many colleges and professional teams and also had helped many injured athletes, such as earl campbell and eric dickerson. through tom i learned: "nothing is impossible and never, never give up or quit."

在经历了一年半垂死挣扎的生活后，在漫长的等待和艰辛的付出后，终于在1983年的秋天，我返回了德克萨斯大学。在奥斯汀接下来的几年里我生活得非常艰难，但我确信为了看到生活中的真善美你必须要经历一些苦难。也许我经历的苦难太多了，但我有一个信念——充实地过每一天，尽力做到最好。日子过的很繁忙、很充实，除了读书，每周我还在要在布莱肯瑞吉医院接受三到五次的治疗。如果这还不够忙的话，我还要隔周和汤姆·威廉斯飞到奥斯汀工作。汤姆是一个教练兼主管，他曾效力于许多大学校队和职业联队，并帮助过许多受伤的运动员，如：厄尔·坎贝尔和艾立克·迪克森。从汤姆的身上我学到“没有什么是不可能的，千万千万不要放弃，永不放弃。”

early, during my therapy, my father kept repeating to me one of his favorite sayings. i have repeated it almost every day since being hurt: "mile by mile its a trial; yard by yard its hard; but inch by inch its a cinch."

早在我接受治疗的时候，父亲总是重复他最爱的那句话，每天当我感到痛苦的时候我也对自己重复那句话，那就是“脚踏实地，切勿急功近利。”

i thought of those words, and i thought of tom, my family and sharon who believed so strongly in me as i climbed the steps to receive my diploma from the dean of liberal arts at the university of texas on that bright sunny afternoon in june of 1986. excitement and pride filled my heart as i heard the dean announce that i had graduated with "highest honors", been elected to phi beta kappa, and been chosen as one of 12 deans distinguished graduates out of 1600 in the college of liberal arts. the overwhelming emotions and feelings that i experienced at that very moment, when most of the audience gave me a standing ovation, i felt would never again be matched in my life-not even when i graduated with a masters degree in social work and not even when i became employed full time at the texas pain and stress center. but i was wrong!

1986年六月那个阳光明媚的午后，当我步履蹒跚地走上德克萨斯大学迪安文学院的台阶接受文凭的时候，我思索着这些话，想到汤姆、父母还有沙伦，他们都那么坚定地给予了我信任。当我听到院长宣布我以最高荣誉毕业时，我的心中充满了骄傲和自信。接着他还宣布我被选入美国大学优等生荣誉学会，并在1600名毕业生中当选为12名迪安文学院的杰出毕业生之一。当场有许多观众站起来为我鼓掌，那一刻令我心潮澎湃、百感交集。我甚至觉得生命中不可能再经历那样的感慨和激情，这种想法一直延续到我获得社会学的硕士学位，成为德克萨斯止痛减压中心的一名全职工作人员。但幸运之神再次眷顾了我!

on may 24, 1987, i realized that nothing could ever match the joy i felt as sharon and i were married. sharon, my high school sweetheart of nine years, had always stood by me, through good and bad times. to me, sharon is my miracle, my diamond in a world filled with problems, hurt, and pain. it was sharon who dropped out of school when i was hurt so that she could constantly be at my side. she never wavered or gave up on me. it was her faith and love that pulled me through so many dark days. while other nineteen year old girls were going to parties and enjoying life, sharon devoted her life to my recovery. that, to me, is the true definition of love. after our beautiful wedding i continued working part time at the pain center and completed my work for a masters degree. we were extremely happy, but even happier when we learned sharon was pregnant.

1987年5月24日，我觉得再没有什么能与此时的快乐相提并论，我和沙伦结婚了。沙伦是我高中时代的女友，风风雨雨九年来，她一直陪在我身旁。对我来说，她是我的奇迹，是我在这个充满困惑和伤痛的世界上拥有的一颗钻石。为了能日夜守侯在我的身旁，沙伦在我受伤的时候放弃了学业。她的爱从未动摇过，她从未抛弃过我。是她的忠诚和爱伴着我度过了无数个黑暗的日子。当别的十九岁的女孩子参加舞会、享受生活的时候，沙伦把青春献给了病床上的我，等待我的康复。对我来说，这就是爱的真谛。在那个美满的婚礼之后，我继续在止痛中心做着兼职的工作，并获得了我的硕士学位。我们非常的幸福，而沙伦怀孕的消息更让我们恩爱有加。

on july 11, 1990 at 12:15 a.m. sharon woke me with the news: "we need to go to the hospital… my water just broke." i couldnt help but think how ironic it was that my life almost ended in a convenience store and now on the date "7-11" we were about to bring a new life into this world. this time it was my turn to help sharon as she had helped me over those past years. she was in labor for 15 hours. at 3:10 p.m. sharon and i experienced the birth of our beautiful daughter, shawn elyse segal! tears of joy and happiness came to my eyes as our healthy, alert, wonderful daughter entered this world. we anxiously counted her 10 fingers and her 10 toes and watched her wide eyes take in the world about her. it was truly a beautiful picture that was etched in my mind forever as she lie in her mothers waiting arms, just minutes after her birth. at that moment i thanked god for blessing us with the greatest miracle of all-shawn elyse segal.

1990年7月11日12点15分，沙伦把我从梦中唤醒：“我们得去医院了……我羊水破了。”我忍不住想命运真让人啼笑皆非，它几乎让我在那家便利店里丢了性命，而在一个命名为“7·11”的日子里它却让我迎来新生命的出世。多年来沙伦帮我度过了一次又一次难关，这次该我来帮助她了。沙伦经历了15个小时的分娩。在3点10分的时候，沙伦和我一起迎来了我们美丽的女儿——萧恩·艾丽斯·斯高。当我看到美丽的女儿健康地来到这个世上，喜悦和幸福化作泪水夺眶而出。我们迫不及待地数着她的十个手指和十只脚趾，看着她大大的眼睛注视着她的世界。初生的婴儿躺在妈妈柔软的怀里如一副优美的图画将永驻我的心中。那一刻，我感谢上帝赐予我们如此最伟大的奇迹——我的萧恩·艾丽斯·斯高。

人生有很多元素，很多的痛处，很多的忧伤。我不知道什么时候才能不再叹息，不再忧伤，不再忍受那抽丝剥茧般的回忆的煎熬。

每一个人的心田，都有一片绿洲，有沙漠；每一个人的内心世界，都复杂繁乱；没一个人都有生活的理念；每一个人，其实都在走着或对或错的道路；然而多一份谎言，就多一份压力；多一份压力，即会多一份伤痛。

推开窗，望着那碧天你的星星。月，我已很久没有看到满月了。雨后的夜空，是星稀的夜，冷清的夜，寂寞的夜。望着窗外黑黢黢的一片，外甥女有星星的辅佐，却无月亮得光辉呢？其实每一个人都并不像想象中的样子——过的那么好。

冷酷的不是我，无情的不是我，有始无终的不是我。连古人都这么说：“人生天地间，无始终非君子也！”我不是君子，但我却很欣赏这句话所包括的理想和含义。有时我也这样认为，一个真正的男子汉就要有这种度，这个量。然而这种度，量是要用一个人的青春作为筹码的。

精致而透明的千纸鹤，是自己或别人费尽一翻心血才编制出来的，然而在酣睡中却被我反手打碎，当你醒悟时，一切都太晚了。仅有一枚晶亮的碎片，仍保持着原有的质地和纹色，在“泪光”的涟漪中闪耀。

屋外是云淡风清，坐在屋里，任随那季风的侵袭，吹动的短发，我的心里是冰冰的。仿佛着肆虐的秋风似在告诉我，并不是任何事情都是有了付出就一定有回报的。凋零的花朵不能恢复昨日的花容，今日的泉水流不出昨日的清澈，若不珍惜现在的饿，到头来，受折磨的是自己。

我不知道怎么想才对；我不知道怎样做更好；我不知道怎样去思考，去忘记；才不会错？

也许友情就是友情，应该说是一种好的东西，一个简单而又复杂的概念……

写到此处，望着那寥廓的模糊的夜空，我叹息。为我自己，也为天各一方的你。

A dream is to a man what wings are to a bird. With a dream in the deep

hearts core, a man is spontaneously driven to hitch his wagon to a star. A

dream is an inexhaustible source of energy that keeps our enthusiasm burning,

and kindles our desire to enhance our spiritual cultivation, refine our

character, and upgrade our quality of life. A life without a dream is like a

bird with broken wings, confined to a cage and oblivious of what lies beyond the

range of its vision. On the contrary, a man with a dream is like a warrior armed

with ambition, foresight and gallantry, daring to step into an unknown domain to

make a journey of adventure. It is dream that adds fullness, variety, and spice

to our life and makes it worth living. I have a dream. It is d dream that is

deeply rooted in human nature. I dream that one day people of all origins can

live in harmony and peace without being discriminated against or persecuted. The

bounty of the earth can be shared by every single human being. Mutual respect

will guarantee the existence and continuation of the diversity of customs and

cultures. Love, sympathy, and cooperation will alleviate the sufferings and

disasters inflicted upon our fellow men. Respect for basic human rights will put

an end to social injustices and evils. When my dream comes true, all men will be

truly equal, happy, and free.

About Friendship

Friendship is a kind of human relations. It is a human instinct to make friends.When in trouble, we need friends to offer us help, support and encouragement. With success achieved, we also need friends to share our joys.

Friendship is also one of the greatest pleasures that we can enjoy. It implies loyalty, cordiality, sympathy, affection,and readiness to help. No man can make the most of his life without carefully and conscientiously striving to win the right kind of friends as he goes along.

Knowing how valuable friendship is, we should be very careful in making friends. Real friends are those who have good character, superior ability and kindness of heart. Real friends can share all our sorrows and double all our joys.While making friends, we should take care to select those who have such fine qualities. Then we should treat our friends with courtesy, be careful not to interfere unreasonably with them,and not to ridicule their proceedings. We should forgive their failures and do our best to help them. In short, when we have established friendship, we ought to cherish and treasure it by means of words and deeds. Only thus, can we develop real friendship and keep the sacred lamp of friendship burning all our life.

友谊是一种人际关系。交友是人的一种本能。患难之中，我们需要朋友帮助、支持和鼓励。取得了成绩，我们也需要朋友分享欢乐。

友谊又是我们可以享受的最大乐趣之一。友谊蕴含真诚、热忱、怜悯、挚爱和乐于助人之意。在人的一生中，如果不认真谨慎地力求交结正直的朋友，他就不能从生活中获得最大益处。

懂得了友谊是多么宝贵之后，就应谨慎地选择朋友。真正的朋友品性良好，能力上等，心地善良；真正的朋友能分担我们的忧伤，倍增我们的欢乐。交友之 时，要谨慎选择具有这样美好品质的人。然后应以礼待友，当心不要无理地妨碍他们，不嘲笑他们的所作所为。我们应原谅朋友的失败，并尽己所能帮助他们。 简言之，建立了友谊之后，要通过言语和行动来珍惜友谊，像爱护宝物一样爱惜友谊。只有这样，才能发展真正的友谊，让神圣的友谊之灯照亮我们一生。

In life, in school, if you dont have friends, what would you do? Change is me, I will feel life is very boring, not happy at all.

In school, if you have a good friend says, without a pen, a friend will lend it to you, no book friend will lend you, friends will play with you, by the time class is over have wont do topic, friends will teach you, have something sad, friends will comfort you. If you dont have friends, forget to bring something, no one to lend you, farewell is next class, can only be a person sitting next to look at it very happy to play with friends, this kind of mood is how uncomfortable! Without a friend, your life will be dull and boring.

Without a friend, when you are a person at home, finished my homework, you is how lonely, maybe you can only at home watching TV, but TV cant talk with you again, then how much do you need a bosom friend! Friendship is very precious. Friendship is the direction of the soul, friendship is sincere friend, friendship is the glow in the dark, friendship like a candle in the dark, they like the way forward.

在生活中，在学校里，如果你没有朋友，你会怎样?换做是我，我就会觉得生活非常无味，没有一点儿快乐。

在学校，如果你有好朋友的说，没有带笔，朋友会借给你，没有本子朋友会借给你，下课时，朋友会跟你玩，有不会做的题，朋友会教你，有伤心的事，朋友会安慰你。如果你没有朋友，忘了带东西，没人借给你，告别是下课时，只能一个人坐在旁边看着别人非常开心的跟朋友玩，这种心情是多么的难受啊!没有朋友，你的生活会单调、乏味。

没有朋友，当你一个人在家时，做完作业，你是多么的孤独，也许你只能在家里看电视，但电视又不能跟你谈心，这时你是多么需要一个知心朋友啊!友情是非常珍贵的。友情是灵魂的方向，友情是诚信的良友，友情是黑暗中的光芒，友情如黑暗里的一根蜡烛，照说宛们前进的道路。

In the daytime, the air was so stuffy and the sun was so hot, so my friends and I decided to take a rest in the hotel. When the sun almost got down, we started to go on the street, the first thing was to find something to eat.

去年暑假，我去广州旅游。我感到很兴奋，我花了大约四个小时到那里。白天，空气很闷，太阳很大，所以我的朋友和我决定去旅馆休息。当太阳将要下山了，我们开始逛街，第一件事就是找东西吃。街上有很多美味的小吃，我们不知道吃什么好，因此我们计划尽可能多吃。我无法停止下来，食物太美味了。吃完以后，我们开始购物，广州的外贸很出名，衣服时尚，价格便宜。我们去了购物街，试了各种各样的衣服，最后，我们买了很多衣服。这趟旅程对我来说是很难忘的。

Nowadays, many female students are idolaters. In order to chase after their

idols, they always do extreme ways. For example, they listen to their idols

songs almost every minute in their daily life. With a smart phone, they do it

when reading books, doing homework, having meals, and even walking on the road,

which may have many bad effects on their health and even cause safety problems.

Besides, plenty of girls think they like their idols so much that they chase

after their idols wherever they go, just to get their signatures. They also

daydream of dating with their idols and get psychological problems at last. All

of these are worth our attention. We should educate girls that their idols are

some people who are lucky enough to be famous, and listening to their songs and

watching their photos are the things they should do in their life. Thus, they

are supposed to balance chasing after idols and their daily life properly.
