+ 加入清单敬爱的吴老师:
您好!不久,我已经踏上六年级的阶梯.吴老师,您为我们付出了许多汗水.今天我在这里和您谈谈心里话.
您是一位关心学生的好老师.记得有一次,我班的一位同学由于身体不舒服,在课堂上有些头晕.当消息传到您的耳中时.您就叫那位学生扒在桌面上好好休息,给他一杯热水,还向他问寒问暖.
还有一次,您给我们讲课时,一会打哈欠,一会揉揉鼻子,我们都知道,我们都明白,是你的感冒使得你如此.我想:“吴老师,您怎么不在讲台上休息一会儿呢?”可是我知道,您是为了我们而在顽强地给我们讲课……
在将近期末考试的时候,老师比我们更为紧张,所以常常放学后多上一节课,给我们补课.有些学生埋怨老师不应该放学留下.但您不在乎听他们所讲的话.时时帮助不会的学生,教他们解决的方法,给他以容易的理解,让他能够明白.我们遇到不会的问题便向您请教,您也耐心地给予我们讲解.

share my opinions of growing pains.
Grow up, like a boat in my life, driving the wave surface. Sometimes, be in
calm, sometimes be in rough. But the boat I was growing up, not everything is
going. For me, sour,sweet,bitter,ho t,everything .
Now, as I grow up, are becoming adults, so in the eyes of parents, I was no
longer to be a kid. Sometimes, they say "youve grown up,not a children!" When I
listen to this,my head will be pain.
When I was a little boy, my life is so relaxed.But now, in front of the
waves are bigger, and more twists and turns the sea,I become a middle school
student, that I have all gone past. Im taller, homework more, study more
subjects,have more test.When I was a boy, I am wrong no matter what happened, no
one to blame me.But now,if I do something wrong,my parents will shout. The
relaxe time will far away from me.I will be more busy.
Study pressure always troubling me. Grown up, more work gradually like
hills. After school, I do not dare to play, to see their favorite book, Im
afraid I cant complete the work, I can only try very hard to make the pen in my
book on wave, for example, I have to run on the way home. The course also
gradually heavy. Every home in the evening review, I looked at a lot of books, I
really do not know to study what subject, is Chinese? Or math? Or geography?

move to the city. But is the city life perfect? Every coin has two sides.
现在很多人,特别是那些生活在农村的人,都想去都市生活。但是,都市生活真的很好吗?每面硬币都有两面,每件事都有利有弊。
Its true that things seem to be more convenient in some ways such as

and hotels are attractive.
事实上,有些事似乎(因为在城市生活而)变得更方便,比如找工作、交通运输服务等等。有些供人放松的地方也非常吸引人,比如公园和旅馆。

+ 加入清单There was once a little boy called Guy, and he was eight years old. He was
in third grade; one day when he was at school, he found out that tomorrow was
picture day, and so he had got to take a shower. And before he even got to think
about picture day, his teacher Mrs. Creature, said that they were having a
project, and it was all about their family.
The teacher said, “This project shall be today’s homework, and I want it to
be perfect for I am going to tell your parents if you don’t do it.” Suddenly
Guy’s sister Cally stood up and said, “Mrs. Creature, is it okay that I finish
it on class?” “Sure thing Cally;” answered Mrs. Creature smiling, “But there is
only a problem, it is that you must let your brother copy this report on your
paper so that you could help him; then you will have to do another report of
your own, or you’ll both fail!”
Cally and Guy apparently got home, and Cally said, “Mrs. Creature’s hates
me…” “Yeah, it’s hilarious!” shouted Guy, “Let me just copy your paper and we’re
done, okay?” “Ugh,” replied Cally; She reached her hand into her hand, and
pulled out a piece of paper; and said, “This goes over every bone in my delicate
body, but, careful; it’s hand written,” then Guy asked, “Is this gold ink
paper?” then Cally shouted at him and said, “Anything happened to this paper and
your family history ends right here pal!” and then she walked to her room.
Guy walked to the sofa and said, “My running is fast, I have nothing to
worry about it;” then suddenly his father came with a paper shredder in his
hands and said, “Hey Guy, check out my new paper shredder and…” He had barely
finished when suddenly; Guy threw Cally’s report into the shredder by accident,
and “azuowenz!” like that sound, Cally’s report was shredded. Guy called, “No!”
then his dad was ashamed and said, “Oh, I guess it isn’t a good thing to walk
around with this thing turned on;” and then he ran off with his legs behind his
butt.
Suddenly, Guy’s body shook, and he turned into Shezow. He went to Sheila,
his, or her, super computer, and said to her; “What’s wrong Sheila, I’m kind of
busy around here and…”
“Dude, or should I say Shezow, this isn’t about your own business; because
there is an emergency out there.
After a breath Sheila said to Guy, “Mega monkey is on the attack, and
according to me he should be back in time.” Then Guy said, “Road trip! Time
traveling!” then he hopped into the sheicel and drove off to time travel… He was
excited.
She drove off right away. After that, she found some of the pass few
Shezows. At last Sheila said to Shezow, “My scan is lining up like dynamite,
follow that flapper!” shouted Sheila. Shezow followed it just as Sheila said,
and found herself in the 1920s; “Wow, it looks like the 1920s,” said Maze, Guy’s
brother. Then Shezow zoomed into a tornado.
When she opened her eyes, she found herself in 1924, the Shezow in that
time saved her world from Mega monkey that had escaped not long before, and
Sheila then said, “Quick, to the beginning!” then she allowed Shezow to drive to
the beginning where they might save the day…
Shezow at last arrived at the beginning, and she stopped in time. At first
a dinosaur was chasing her and was very, very frightened. But the Shezow in that
time saved her, she was grateful; then she found her or his or Guy’s report
there at the beginning Shezow’s lair…
The next day at school, when Guy’s report was handed out, he got an A+; and
when Cally’s report was handed out, she got an A-…

+ 加入清单Since the swallow had brought back the prince’s red gem, he could at last
stay; but one night as soon as he was about to return to the Egypt, the happy
prince said to the little swallow, “OH little swallow, please stay with me for
one last night?” the swallow replied, “Oh dear prince, I couldn’t stay with you
any longer, my friends are waiting for me and…” “Oh please little swallow, you
must obey me;” the swallow sighed and said, “All right I shall stay with you for
one last night.”
The swallow then took a breath, after that he continued, “What is the
request that you want me to do dear prince?” the prince said to the swallow,
“See that poor old man writing a story, he is very hungry; and I could tell by
his face,” “What do you want me to give to him dear prince?” asked the swallow,
as if he had so many questions to ask; “I want you to take out my blue eye ball,
it is like a gem, and bring it to the man so that he could finish his act; and
be happy once more.”
At these words the swallow said, “OH my dear prince, I couldn’t do that! I
swear! Because…” “No little swallow, you must do what I say, and help that poor
man!” at these words, the swallow had no choice but to obey, he took out the
other prince’s eye; with a squeak, as if he was helping the poor prince to
recover from his pain.
When the swallow flew to the man with the blue sapphire gem, he felt the
warm wind of the spring dancing around in his brain. When he arrived, he placed
the gem under the man’s face, and flew back to the prince. When he returned, the
prince asked the swallow, “Did you succeed?” asked the prince joyfully, “I did,
and I hope the man enjoys it too.
The man awoke eventually, when he saw the blue sapphire gem; he said
happily, “What on the world is this? somebody actually likes my plays, yes! Now
I can finish my play;” and he began to write. The next day, the swallow flew
away to Egypt and before that he said to the prince, “I am going to fly away to
Egypt today and…” “Oh please little swallow, oh please can you stay with me for
one last night?” but the swallow was very satisfied, “But, dear prince; I can’t
do that, my friends are waiting for me and it is getting colder and colder here;
I have to go to Egypt, where the sun is hot, and it is warm and cool there;”
“You must little swallow, you must stay with me for one last night,” “Dear
prince, I couldn’t and…” “Swallow this can’t be, you have to stay with me; I
command you!” the little swallow had no choice but to obey.
“Okay prince, what is your command?” “See that poor little girl on the
road, she is selling matches; it is Christmas day, and she hadn’t even sold one
match. But she dares not to go home; because her father was a cruel man, and he
would punish her and hit her hard and say mean words to her if she doesn’t bring
home any money. She is crying bitterly, and I want you to do something that I
want; which is very important, I now realize that helping people is good since
it feels good.”
“Well what do you suggest me to do dear prince?” “I want you to take my
sword’s red gem off again, and give it to her so that she can bring home,” “OH
my dear prince!” shouted the swallow in the loudest voice, “I can’t do that, you
will lose your sword’s red gem and…” “No swallow, you must do what I tell you,
or face your doom!” and so the swallow brought the red gem to the little girl by
wings, the little girl looks at it and smiled, “That is nice! But it is still
not enough as my father wished me to give it to him;” then she began to sigh and
cry again, the swallow heard what the girl had just said; he said to himself,
“What a picky girl!” when he flew back, he didn’t tell the prince the message
that he had just received from the little girl; but he still was very cold.
He knew that since he did not help the poor little girl, he felt bad; and
so that was the reason why he was cold. He was very sad; and when he was about
to fly to Egypt, the prince said to the swallow, “I see that you are very sad
these days; I wonder what is the matter, tell me?” the swallow did not speak,
the prince forced the swallow to tell him; but he still didn’t say anything. At
last the prince said, “If you don’t tell me I will put dynamites on your head
and blow you up! I was trying to help you!”
At these words the swallow was so scared that he said out loud, “I heard
the little girl say that that wasn’t enough to pay for his father, and so I
didn’t tell you because I thought that you would not like it and…”
“Oh my dear swallow, why on earth would you think I will not help a little
girl? And why on earth would you not tell me about this?” the spell was broken,
the prince turned to real life, and jumped down from the statue’s stand, “Thank
you dear swallow, you have broke the spell, and now I can live on land once
more.
That was the end of the happy prince. During the lives when he was a golden
statue, he realized how important everybody was to him, and that how important
helping people is.

+ 加入清单Wide sea diving, the days of the birds to fly. Everyone carries a dream of
their own.
However, what is the dream? What is dream? Dream is looking forward to, and
the dream is strong - is fleeting dream you insist on the ideal as their courage
and perseverance, are you responsible for their own highest level. But ask
yourself, how many of us to accomplish his original dream in mind?
Our dream is a simple belief, is a future and life of their own
responsibility. Perhaps, is the Youth
grand ambitions; perhaps, is the adolescent confusion and impulsive; maybe
just a plain desire, desire applause, eager for success. Countless "may,"
innumerable "hope" because of our youthful full of miracles, large and small
dreams in our hearts, in every corner of life filled with fragrance.
Only the ideal but no effort is useless. If you want to be a teacher, you
should to study hard. If you want to be a player, you should do more exercises.
If you want to become a businessman, he should learn to get along with people.
For example, my wish is to be a famous writer grew up, because I really love
writing, so from now on, I should read more, more accumulate knowledge, and
strive to improve writing level. No pains, no gains, because my efforts, so my
article was punished in many newspapers , and in many composition contest, I see
the success Im happy, so, struggle is the bridge to the ideal.
Yes, my dream. to give my famliy a warm, give my friend happy. Yes, my
dream. The podium from the first station began his love this place, started from
the first published an article looking forward to the world of words, decided to
stay here from the beginning, stick to bottom of my heart desire.
Years in our faces no matter how many additional traces, no matter how much
things to us across the chest wounds, as long as we have the right to breathe,
to have a passion for remodeling dreams! Oxygen to survive as long as we have to
have the courage to create a passion!
Choose to continue, select the value, select the achievements of the
passion of life, the brave hearts of the initial dream of success!
海阔凭鱼跃,天高任鸟飞。每个人都怀揣着一个属于自己的梦想。
然而,什么是梦?什么又是梦想?梦是期待,而梦想是坚强--是你把飘渺的梦坚持作为自己理想的勇气和执著,是你对自己负责的最高境界。但扪心自问,我们有多少人能够成就自己心中最初的梦想?
我们的梦想,是一个简单的信念,是一份对自己未来与生命的责任。也许,是二十岁的豪情壮志;也许,是青春期的迷茫与冲动;也许只是一份平淡的渴望,渴望掌声,渴望成功。无数的“可能”,无数的“希望”,因为我们的青春岁月充满奇迹,我们心中大大小小的梦,在生活的每一个角落里芬芳弥漫。
是的,我的梦想。一份从一而终的守望--给我的学生希望,给我的读者温暖,给我的爱人幸福。是的,我的梦想。从第一次站上讲台开始迷恋这个地方,从第一次发表文章开始憧憬文字世界,从决定留在这里开始,坚守心底的渴望。
无论岁月在我们脸上增添了多少痕迹,无论世事在我们胸口划过多少到伤痕,只要我们还有呼吸的权利,就拥有重塑梦想的激情!只要我们还有生存的氧气,就拥有缔造激情的勇气!
落红不是无情物,化作春泥更护花。选择坚持,选择珍惜,选择成就生命的激情,勇敢的成就心中最初的梦想!

How is everything going! Last time you said you are anxious now because you
find it hard to learn English well. Don’t worry. I think you have to improve
your English step by step. And I will right behind you. In my view, you should
develop you interest on English first. According to my experience, I think
watching English movie, listen to some wonderful English songs and talk in
English on the Internet would be helpful. Secondly, you have to prepare lessons
before class that will help you understand what the teacher says in the class. I
know you feel bored in the class, but you have force yourself to be
concentrated. A few days later you will feel it a little easy to learn English.
The left steps I will tell next time. By the way, we have not seen each other
since your family move to Hunan a year ago. Have you ever thought about going
back to visit me and learn English together in the coming Summer vacation.
Looking forward to your reply.

+ 加入清单Do you know what is the most precious and everlasting thing in the world?
Money? You may lose everything you have if you dont use money careful
enough.Youth?In ones long life youth is like a flash in the pan and no one in
the world has the secret to keep his youth forever. Beautiful look? Many people
pray that they can get hold of beauty, but it disappears far more quickly than
they can imagine. And when they are in real trouble beauty itself feels
helpless. A good job? As you grow older and your brain and hands cant work as
fast as before. It will become other peoples wealth.
Then what is the most precious and everlasting thing in the world?
When you are far away from your family and feel especially lonely, who will
you think of? When you stand on the crossroad in your life and dont know which
way to choose, who will you think of? When you encounter greater difficulties
than ever and need others encouragement, who will you think of? When you decide
to make the greatest decision in your favorite course, which shed cheerful tears
when see you get achievements? Whose wholehearted blessing will be always with
you no matter how far you will go?
Yes, its mother who you will always think of and its mothers love that
will be always be with you.
I once heard a moving story about a mother. Two children were drawn into
the flood and the situation was very dangerous. Their mother jumped into the
water without hesitation. But the mother couldnt swim at all. Jumping into the
water means she might lose her life. But at that time she had no time to think
about herself. She just wanted to try all means to save her children. Maybe her
courage touched the God. The miracle happened. She finally succeeded in saving
her both children. And she, of course, felt extremely exhausted.
My friends, mother’s love is the greatest love. Mother’s love is the safest
love. No matter you are happy or depressed, rich or poor, mother’s love will
always stay with you.

+ 加入清单Ali Baba quickly got as many bags of gold as his mules could carry, and
then put them in the sack; after that he placed the wood upon the gold so firmly
that the gold couldn’t be seen.
Then Ali Baba rode home with his mules, and carried the wood with bags of
gold into the house. After placing them on the floor, his wife came out with
porridge, “How are you today?” and his wife; Ali Baba smiled, “Better than
usual,” then he quickly poured the wood out, and under it was bags of gold. Ali
Baba’s wife was also astonished to find their good fortune. Ali Baba was pleased
as well.
His wife loved the gold so much, that she wanted to know how many pieces
there were. After dinner, his wife began to count, but Ali Baba stopped her and
said, “Wife, as much as it is to hear but you will never finish counting; if you
don’t finish today and wait for tomorrow then you will have to start from
scratch again.”
“You are right husband, but I still want to figure how much we have. How
about this, I will go to your brother Cassim’s house and borrow a measure, and
then measure how much we have, okay?” Ali Baba agreed, for he was almost the
person in the world to find out how much they have.
And so the next morning Ali Baba’s wife went to Cassim’s house to borrow a
measure, Cassim’s wife came out and said, “Sister, we have lots of measures; you
are welcome to borrow any one of them.” And then she went to the basement, and
got a bag of measure, and then Ali Baba’s wife picked one and went back to her
house. When she approached, she knelt down and began to measure. After a short
time, she went to Cassim’s house again to return the measure, not noticing that
one piece of gold coin stuck to the bottom of the measure. “Here you are
sister,” she said as she put the measure down, “I have finished using it.” And
then went away.
Cassim’s wife did not take long to realize the piece of pure gold coin. She
took it off and called Cassim, “Husband, I know you suspect that you are a rich
fellow; but your brother Ali Baba is ten times as rich as you, he does not count
his money; but measures them.”
Cassim looked at the gold coin and knew at once, “Ali Baba just pretended
that he was a poor fellow and borrows anything we have,” Cassim was not even
pleased at his brother’s good fortune, but was the opposite. And then Cassim led
his wife to Ali Baba’s house, “Ali Baba, tell me, where did you get all of this
good fortune.” At that moment, Ali Baba knew that the secret had been spread
though his own wife’s stupidity. “Look Ali Baba, if you don’t tell me where you
got this gold; I shall tell everybody, and not only will you get no more, but
you will have no more gold in the rest of your life! Ha!” laughed Cassim.
And so Ali Baba told him where he found the gold, and even the words he
knew of how to make the door open and shut. And so Cassim woke up early the next
morning, and took with his ten donkeys to fill the gold. He arrived at the place
where Ali Baba had told him, and pronounced these words, “Open Sesame!” the door
instantly opened wide, and inside of course; he found a chamber of pure gold,
and in it was gold.
Cassim filled as many bags of gold as he wanted. But when the robbers
arrived he was still filling. When the robbers found out, they used their swords
and soon killed him.
