Here is a difference between science and technology.Science is a method of

answering theoretical questions; technology is a method of solving practical

problems. Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships between

observable phenomena in nature and with establishing theories that serve to

organize these facts and relationships; technology has to do with

tools,techniques, and procedures for implementing the findings of science.

Another distinction between science and technology has to do with the

progress in each. Progress in science excludes the human factor. Scientists, who

seek to comprehend the universe and know the truth with the highest degree of

accuracy and certainty, cannot pay heed to their own or other peoples likes or

dislikes, or to popular ideas about the fitness of things. What scientists

discover may shock or anger people--as did Darwins theory of evolution. But

even an unpleasant truth is more than likely to be useful; besides, we have the

option of refusing to believe it! But hardly so with technology;we do not have

the option of refusing to hear the sonic boom produced by a supersonic

aircraft-flying overhead; we do not have the option of refusing to breathe

polluted air. Unlike science, progress in technology must be our slave and not

the reverse. The legitimate purpose of technology is to serve peopie--people in

general, not merely some people; and future generations, not merely those who

presently wish to gain advantage for themselves.

We are all familiar with the abuses of technology. Many people blame

technology itself for widespread pollution, resource depletion and even social

decay in general--so much so that the promise of technology is obscured. That

promise is a cleaner and healthier world. If wise applications of science and

technology do not lead to a better world, what else will?

SomeHolidays are so much fun that they catch on outside of their culture. The most obvious exampleisprobably Christmas, which is celebrated around the world by people who aren’t even Christian. Similarly, in recent years, the Dragon Boat Festival has moved beyond China to become an international holiday celebrated by people who may know little about the holiday’s origins.

有些节日实在是很有趣，所以在本土文化以外的地方也很受欢迎。最明显的例子可能就是圣诞节，世界各地的人都会庆祝圣诞节，即使是非基督徒。同样，最近几年端午节已经不局限于中国，成为国际性节日，而庆祝的人可能对节日的由来并不太了解。

The Dragon Boat Festival is one of three majorChineseholidays, along with the Spring and Moon Festivals. Of the three, it is possibly the oldest, dating back to the Warring States Period in 227 B.C. The festival commemorates Qu Yuan, a minister in the service of the Chu Emperor. Despairing over corruption at court, Qu threw himself into a river. Townspeople jumped into their boats and tried in vain to save him. Then, hoping to distract hungry fish from his body, the people scattered rice on the water.

端午节与春节和中秋节并列为中国三大节日。这三个节日中，它可能是最古老的一个，可以追溯到公元前227年的战国时代。这个节日是为了纪念楚国的大夫屈原，他因为对朝廷的贪污腐败感到绝望而投河自尽。镇上的人纷纷冲上船去救他，却没有成功。后来大家把米撒到水里，希望把饥饿的鱼群从他的躯体边引开。

Over the years, the story of Qu’s demise transformed into the traditions of racing dragon boats and eating zongzi – a kind of rice wrapped in bamboo leaves. The races have certainly captured the imagination of people from all over the world. Every spring there are nearly 60 dragon boat races held outside of China in cities from Vancouver to Sydney, from Gdańsk, Poland to Cape Town, South Africa. Canada alone has nearly 50 dragon boat teams and Germany has nearly 30.

多年以后，屈原逝世的故事逐渐演变成赛龙舟和吃粽子(一种包在竹叶中的米食)的传统。这些竞赛显然激起了世界各地人们的想像，每年春天有将近60场龙舟赛在中国境外的城市举办，从温哥华到悉尼，从波兰的格但斯克到南非的开普敦。单单字加拿大就有将近50支龙舟队伍，德国则有近30个。

So what is it about the Dragon Boat Festival that appeals to foreigners? “It’s an unusual

sport,” says one racer from Germany. “It’s not like everybody’s doing it. That’s one of the reasons that there’s such great team spirit in a dragon boat team – everybody feels like we’re doing something special.” And what about the zongzi? “Ehhh, they’re not bad, I guess,” he says. “Something of an acquired taste. I just haven’t really acquired it yet.”

那么，为什么端午节赛龙舟会吸引外国人呢?“这是一项不寻常的运动。”一位来自德国的参赛者说，“这并不是所有的人都在从事的运动。这正是龙舟队的团队精神如此高昂的原因之一，每个人都觉得自己在做一件很特别的事。”那么粽子呢?“喔，我觉得它不难吃。”他说，“那是一种需要后天培养的品味。我只是还没培养出来罢了。”

The Dragon Boat Festival ,also called the Duanwu Festival ,is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to the

Chinese calendar.People always eat rice dumplings and watch dragon boat races to celebrate it.

The festival is best known for its dragon-boat races,especially in the southern places where there are many rivers and lakes. Ití?s

very popular.

The rice dumpling is made of glutinous rice,meat and so on. You can eat different kinds of rice dumplings.They are very delicious.

And Dragon Boat Festival is for Qu Yuan. He is an honest minister who is said to have committed suicide by drowning himself in a

river.

Overall, the Dragon Boat Festival is very interesting!

Today is mothers birthday, but I didnt know what to by for her.A watch was a good present, but it was too expensive for me to buy.Flowers were not so expensive, but they would die soon.A birthday cake was too sweet and mother didnt like it.

今天是妈妈的生日，可是我还不知道给她买些什么。手表是挺好的礼物，可是太贵了，我买不起。花倒是不贵，可是很快就枯萎了。生日蛋糕太甜，妈妈不喜欢吃。

Then father thought a good idea.He said, "Why dont we make a wonderful dinner for her?That will show our love for her!" Oh, that was good.Love is the most expensive present in the world.

后来爸爸相处个好主意。他说，“为什么我们不做一顿美味的晚餐呢！那会显示出我们对她的爱！”啊，太好了。爱是世界上最昂贵的礼物。

I will never forget the smile on mothers face when we were having supper together.

我将永远忘不了我们共聚晚餐时妈妈脸上的笑容。

My Grandpa and me

In this old photo, It’s my grandfather and me. My mum took it for us ten years ago. The tall and strong man in the photo was my grandpa. He had black hair, blue eyes, big nose and a big mouth. He was a teacher when he was young. At that time, he was very kind，honest and hardworking. His pupil always said he was a good teacher. Now he is retired. Beside my grandpa was me. I was a cute, healthy baby. But at that time, I had no hair, so I often wore a hat. I was a very naughty baby too. I was always in trouble. But my grandpa said who was not naughty when he was young. Maybe naughty is the children’s nature. So, I like my grandpa very much. I think he knows the children very well.

We were happy in the old house. But now, my family move into Shawan, so we are far away from my grandpa. One year ago, we got a letter from my grandfather. He said he would come to Shawan to see us. I am very excited. I hope that day can come soon. At that time, we will be very happy together.

Like tangible cultural heritages such as the Great Wall and the Forbidden

City, intangible cultural heritages like Peking Opera and

Confucius-commemorating rituals are equally crucial. We should make our utmost

efforts to preserve intangible heritages because, without their physical form of

existence, they are in greater risk of extinction.

According to UNESCO’s Convention for the Safeguarding of Intangible

Cultural Heritage (2003), all forms of social customs and habits, folklore,

performing arts, rituals, oral traditions, festivals, traditional crafts and

various knowledge and practices about nature and universe can be classified as

intangible cultural heritages. As a country consisting of a great diversity of

ethnic groups and with time-honored history and civilization, China abounds in

intangible cultural heritages. Cultural heritages connect modern people with the

historical past, allowing them to acquire a cultural and historical identity.

Without cultural heritages, we would be rendered absolutely rootless and we

would find it hard to cope with challenges at present and in the future.

However, the modernization process poses mounting threats to intangible

heritages. Many people have a blind faith in the latest electronic devices. It

is also pathetic to see elderly people in possession of such legacies pass away

without transmitting them to the younger generation. Faced with those

challenges, we should both preserve and renovate our ancestral heritages so that

we can help contribute to the cultural diversity of the world and return to our

spiritual homeland in this age of impersonal science and technology.

参考译文：

我们的寒假放假时间是从一月十六号截至到二月七日。我想每个人在这期间，都会去做很多的事。但是我没有这样。下面就让我来给大家讲讲我的寒假发生的事吧。

我花了很长的时间来做作业…，在寒假这段时间里，我每天起的都很晚。然后呢，我听录音机(tape),转眼到九点了。之后，我吃完早饭再花一整天的时间去做作业!其实我做的并不慢，只是家庭作业布置的太多了!

我在玩耍方面也显得十分倒霉。在我玩爆竹的时候，伤着了我的手指。我手拿着放爆竹的时候，太不小心了，所以显得很是倒霉(杯具变成了餐具现在很流行的一个词，杯具餐具-作文地带)。

在我与朋友聚餐时也相当倒霉。早上，我是想着早点起，可是等我睡醒时已经是10：50.十分钟后，聚会就要开始!于是我只吃了块面包就径直向朋友家跑去!在朋友家呆了很长的时间后，我回到家，我爸爸妈妈很生气并且还大骂我一顿。

我很担心我的体重，上学期，我体重是48KG，但是现在我已经涨到51KG了!我必须减肥了!

但是更为重要的是，我已经去过了上海海洋水族馆，我非常期待去那，因为在那我可以看到马、猴子……还有大海。现在我实现这个愿望了。这也是我这个寒假唯一的一个亮点。

星期六，我去爷爷奶奶家玩，一进门爷爷就跟我说：“家里来了一只小狗。”我赶紧兴奋地往狗窝跑去。

这个小家伙正在睡大觉，我控制不住自己激动的心情，忍不住用手摸了它一下，可谁知，小狗的警惕性那么高，我的手刚碰到它的毛，它就一下子被我给惊醒了。它把眼睛睁得大大的，仔细地看着我，仿佛在说：“你是谁呀?我怎么没看见过你呢?”我一看，哟!圆溜溜的大眼睛，小小的鼻子，樱桃形的小嘴，不胖不瘦的脸蛋，还有一对神气的大耳朵和一条摇个不停的尾巴。夏天的时候它会把舌头舔出来散散热，真是一只帅气的小家伙呀!

吃完饭后，我也想去看看这小家伙吃东西的样子，便拿了一块肉放在地上，我心想：这样美味它一定很喜欢吧。但出乎意料的是，它只是去嗅了嗅，又走到了一边。我想，是不是它怕被人看到才不肯吃呢。于是，我就躲在了门背后，偷偷地观察它的动静。果然，小家伙慢慢地走了过去，四面看了一下便津津有味地吃了起来。看它吃完了一块肉，我便从门后走出来和它一起玩了起来。我把一个球扔到了远处，对它说：“帮我去把球捡回来!”它仿佛听懂了我的话，飞快地跑过去用脚踢，用嘴顶把那个球一直送到了我的身边，就这样，我们高兴地玩了起来。

我的小狗实在是太可爱了!

有三种目标：短期，中期的和长期的目标。

短期目标是那些通常与当前的活动，我们可以应用在日常工作处理。这些目标可以实现在一周或更少，或者两个星期，或possiblymonths。应该记住，仅仅是作为建筑物地基比强大，我们的长远目标不等于没有牢固的短期目标的实现非常多。在完成我们的短期目标，我们应当标明日期，然后添加新的短期的目标，将建立在那些已经完成。

长期目标可能与我们对未来的梦想。他们可能需要5年以上。生活不是一成不变的。我们不能让一个长远的目标，以限制我们或我们的行动方针。

[目标的英语小学作文

As everyone knows, stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is

no way to avoid it. As the pace of modern life continues to increase, we are

always feeling on the go from morning till night. And it is hard to slow down.

Therefore, stress goes hand in hand with the life in a competitive society.

Different people, however, think of stress quite differently. Some believe

that stress is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be. They are of the

opinion that a certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give

purpose to life. Others argue that stress contributes to one’s mental decline

and hence endangers his health. According to them, relaxation, the opposite of

stress, is essential for a healthy mind and body.

Personally, I’m in favor of the former view. I think it is impossible to

avoid stress when one is entirely devoted to the career he pursues. In my

opinion, it is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor

performance and ill health.
