Dear Tony

I am very glad to hear from you.How is eveything with you?You ask me about my plan of the winter vocation.I am going to finish my homework as soon as possible so that I can have lots of free time to read more books and help my parents do some housework.I am going to learn how to cook some delicious dishes so that my parents will be happy to enjoy them.I am going to go skating and skiing with my parents because skating and skiing are my favourite winter sports.My parent will take me to visit some interesting places,such as the Summer Palace and the Forbitten City.It will be a lot of fun.I am looking forward to my winter vocation.

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.

Nowadays, the Internet is becoming more and more popular in the society, and network morality and politeness are becoming more and more important. Although the network is a virtual world, it still needs to pay attention to morality and courtesy.

In real life, people pay attention to civilization and politeness when they interact with each other. They are willing to show themselves a good image of culture, culture and good behavior.

In the virtual society, people do not meet each other, and the two parties may never know who they are. This is not polite, can talk, swearing talk? Can not! In this virtual network society, due to the interaction between people are generally written language, so humble attitude, polite language, mutual respect is more important, it will make people feel warm, can naturally narrow the distance between the two sides, eliminate the strange feeling, so that both sides of communication communicate friendly. Polite manners will help you build a bridge between friends.

If you start swearing, swearing, will only make you disgust, think you are not self-cultivation. This kind of person has no place in the society and the internet. According to Chutian Metropolis Daily, two middle school students in Jingzhou are chatting with QQ, one of them is swearing, and the other is dragging him into the blacklist. The curse of the "Coral" version of the QQ to find the other side of the Internet bar, machine number, about a few classmates, find him, killed him alive. Later, he was caught by the court and sentenced to punishment.

Morality, not only involves no swearing, must also keep a promise inviolate. If the blind to post, will let others do wrong, harm to others for gospel truth.

In addition, because we teenagers are in the growth period, experience is little, lack of experience, in this complex world travel network was set up, we must pay attention to self-protection awareness, establish a "firewall" in their mind, to influence us against bad information. Restricted information, if you are in the restricted area, must not enter.

For example, some of my classmates on the Internet found a actionpacked, what is called "flash" game, open display "factors in this game with violence, under the age of 18, but they are prohibited from entering the" stubborn into play. Because they play too much, they want to rush up, hit a few punches or kick a few legs, and learn straight.  What a sad thing it is! We must draw lessons from the inappropriate information of minors, and not play games that are not suitable for minors.

Internet must use their own registered accounts and passwords, without permission, absolutely can not steal other peoples accounts and passwords, and add "friends" to pass the other sides permission and verification. Its a basic virtue when someone enters the account number and password.

Other peoples web pages, animation, writing the text are the intellectual property rights of the producer, is protected by the state, without permission can not be reproduced, the name of their own department.

Talking about security issues again. At present, there are many swindlers on the Internet, using childrens credulity and curiosity to date children to meet somewhere. Such a thing, even if you know each other, must also consult with parents, can not relax vigilance. The most important thing is, no matter when, can not easily release personal data online.

Okay！ Wish you a reasonable arrangement of time, online carefree, safe tour!

Many people regard money as the most important thing in their life, but I

dont agree with them. There are so many things that money cant buy. The first,

money cant buy us knowledge, abilities and experience. The second, money cant

buy us a happy mood and a good health.

However, money plays a significant role in our daily life. We cant live

without it, because we have to use money to buy our daily necessities, like

food, drinks, clothes, books, and so on. And we also need money to pay for our

houses and education.

My father is a typical man, who is not very talkative. When other fathers

say how much they love their children, my father just keep quiet. He barely says

sweet words to me. But he will never miss every important moment for me, like

the performance in school. He is always one of the audience and watch my

performance. My father tells me to study with passion and he sets the good

example for me, because he loves his work. Sometimes he shows me his design of

work, and I admire him. I know my father loves me so much. Though he doesnt

talk much, he will be right by my side whenever I need him.

Last week, I came across a stray dog when I was taking a walk in my neighborhood. It was a cold day, and there was nobody around. I stopped and he looked at me helplessly.

“What a poor dog!” I thought. Then I decided to bring him home. When we got back home, I gave him some food and drinks and played with him, but it seemed that he was a little sad. I knew he was missing his owner.

What could I do? I came up with an idea. Then I put up a ‘Dog-Found-Notice’ at the gate of our neighborhood with the help of Dad. A few days later, the owner of the dog came to my house. I was very happy to see the little dog go home with his owner, and I feel proud that I was able to give others a helping hand.

今年的父亲节，我终于深深地感觉到了不在爸妈身边，我会有多么想念他们，感觉就像过了好几年那么长，估计是我太想他们了吧。你们想我了没有啊?

转眼间，我就长大了，时间真是好快啊。也正是因为这样，有时候我就会想起小时候的事。

This years fathers day, I finally feel that Im not around my parents,

how much I miss them. Its like several years. I guess I miss them too much. Do

you miss me? In a flash, I grow up. Time is really fast. Because of this,

sometimes I think of my childhood.

还记得小时候你骑着自行车带着我在快车道上飞奔，只为了怕我上学迟到，追我要坐的公车;还记得我忘了带作业，你怕老师训我，不管多忙，天气多不好，你都会来学校给我送;还记得，小学的时候，老师说你是模范家长;还记得我生病肚子疼，大半夜哭着叫你帮我揉肚子，你也会困得睡着，但马上又会清醒继续帮我揉，就这样一直到天亮;还记得小时候，每次洗澡我躺在浴盆里，你都会帮我搓澡;还记得，我的脏衣服满地乱扔的时候，你会默默地把地上的衣服捡走，帮我洗干净;还记得小时候你为了送我去学琴，大冬天骑着摩托车，把腿都吹坏了，现在还经常会疼;还记得你为了工作，经常东奔西跑，忙得头发都变白了;还记得你每天早上都最早起来为我和妈妈买饭，让我和妈妈醒来总会看到桌子上摆着各式各样的早餐;还记得在我为了上学难过的时候你总会说：“没事儿，还有爸爸呢!”

I still remember when I was a child, you took me on a bicycle and galloped

in the fast lane just for fear that I would be late for school to catch the bus

I wanted to take; you also remembered that I forgot to take my homework, you

were afraid that the teacher would scold me, no matter how busy or how bad the

weather was, you would come to the school to send it to me; you also remembered

that in primary school, the teacher said you were a model parent; Remember that

when I was sick and had stomachache, I cried to ask you to knead my belly for me

in the middle of the night, and you would be sleepy to sleep, but you would

immediately wake up and continue to knead for me until dawn; remember that when

I was a child, every time I was lying in the bathtub, you would help me to rub

the bath; remember that when my dirty clothes were thrown around, you would

silently pick up the clothes on the ground and clean them for me; I still

remember when you were a kid, you blew my legs in order to send me to learn the

piano, and you often hurt in the winter when riding a motorcycle. I still

remember that you often ran around for work, and your hair turned white. I still

remember that you got up at the earliest time every morning to buy food for my

mother and me, so that my mother and I would wake up and see all kinds of

breakfast on the table; I remember when I was sad for school, you always said,

"its OK, and Dad!"

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.

关于元宵节的英文介绍

the lantern festival falls on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month, usually in february or march in the gregorian calendar. as early as the western han dynasty (206 bc-ad 25), it had become a festival with great significance. this days important activity is watching lanterns. throughout the han dynasty (206 bc-ad 220), buddhism flourished in china. one emperor heard that buddhist monks would watch sarira, or remains from the cremation of buddhas body, and light lanterns to worship buddha on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month, so he ordered to light lanterns in the imperial palace and temples to show respect to buddha on this day. later, the buddhist rite developed into a grand festival among common people and its influence expanded from the central plains to the whole of china.每年农历的正月十五日，春节刚过，迎来的就是中国的传统节日--元宵节。元宵主要的活动就是看灯。东汉明帝时期，明帝提倡佛教，听说佛教有正月十五日僧人观佛舍利，点灯敬佛的做法，就命令这一天夜晚在皇宫和寺庙里点灯敬佛，令士族庶民都挂灯。以后这种佛教礼仪节日逐渐形成民间盛大的节日。该节经历了由宫廷到民间，由中原到全国的发展过程。

till today, the lantern festival is still held each year around the country. lanterns of various shapes and sizes are hung in the streets, attracting countless visitors. children will hold self-made or bought lanterns to stroll with on the streets, extremely excited. "guessing lantern riddles"is an essential part of the festival.

lantern owners write riddles on a piece of paper and post them on the lanterns. if visitors have solutions to the riddles, they can pull the paper out and go to the lantern owners to check their answer. if they are right, they will get a little gift. the activity emerged

during peoples enjoyment of lanterns in the song dynasty (960-1279).

as riddle guessing is interesting and full of wisdom, it has become popular among all social strata.

直到今天，元宵点灯的习俗仍然在中国的各地流传的，各式各样美丽的花灯在这一天都会点亮，孩子们提着自制的灯笼走街串巷，非常高兴。猜灯谜也是元宵节的一项重要活动，花灯的主人会将谜面写在灯笼上，挂在门口，如果有人可以猜中，就能得到小小的礼物。这项活动最早起源于宋朝，因为谜语能启迪智慧又饶有兴趣，所以流传过程中深受社会各阶层的欢迎。

people will eat yuanxiao, or rice dumplings, on this day, so it is also called the "yuanxiao festival."yuanxiao also has another name, tangyuan. it is small dumpling balls made of glutinous rice flour with rose petals, sesame, bean paste, jujube paste, walnut meat,

dried fruit, sugar and edible oil as filling. tangyuan can be boiled, fried or steamed. it tastes sweet and delicious. what’s more, tangyuan in chinese has a similar pronunciation with "tuanyuan”, meaning reunion. so people eat them to denote union, harmony and happiness for the family.

民间过元宵节吃元宵的习俗。元宵由糯米制成，或实心，或带馅。馅有豆沙、白糖、山楂、各类果料等，食用时煮、煎、蒸、炸皆可。起初，人们把这种食物叫“浮圆子”，后来又叫“汤团”或“汤圆”，这些名称“团圆”字音相近，取团圆之意，象征全家人团团圆圆，和睦幸福，人们也以此怀念离别的亲人,寄托了对未来生活的美好愿望。

in the daytime of the festival, performances such as a dragon lantern dance, a lion dance, a land boat dance, a yangge dance,

After I passed this, I never saw him/them littering.

I suggest that we really want to protect the environment, because it is peoples responsibility to protect the environment. If people do get it right, we can have a good home.
