As an engineering student majoring in environmental systems, I have strong awareness of the environment and want to work in the field of environmental protection. There are three feasible ways, in my opinion, which can raise public awareness of our surrounding environment. Firstly, the appropriate education in schools can be applied to build our concept on the importance of environment and it should be taken good care. Secondly, more and more green or environmental promotions should be carried out. For example, use public transportation more frequently instead of private vehicles; print double-sided instead of one-sided to save papers. Furthermore, researches on clean energy and sustainable development should be enhanced. The natural resources on earth is not infinite and we should seek for a better method to protect our circumstance in the long run.

新任的台湾地区领导人蔡英文：

您好！

话说您在选举时，便声称“要独立”，台湾人民大部分反映的都很响！果不其然，在马英九退位后，您直接同日本、美国交好，决心脱离大陆。

但“台独”对您和台湾有什么好处呢？

在您胜任之前，台湾人民与大陆交往甚好，不少大陆人飞往台湾欣赏美景，也有不少台湾人在大陆落地生根安居乐业，您为何要打破这种平静美好呢？

当然，您会觉得您不是大陆人，而是台湾人，但是你不能连累整个台湾岛。

您难道没有发现美国、日本虽然和你有来往，但他们却没有和您走的太近吗？在他们眼中，您和台湾就一棋子，台湾根本不是大陆的对手。

没错，台湾是后来才回归大陆的，你们虽然一直不认为自己是中国人，要独立，但大陆却一直把你们当做自己人呐。

你再想想，台湾如果真的独立了，中国身为“世界第二大经济体”，你们的日子会好过吗？

但如果您和台湾回归大陆，大陆必定以礼相待。虽然在短时间内台湾民众会产生怨念，说你“骗了他们”，但日子长了，他们就会感受到这样做带来的好处。

两岸的关系更进一步，是台湾和大陆都希望看到的。

大陆和台湾就像兄弟一样，之间不应该有缝隙。

大陆和台湾就像母子一样，大陆张开双臂，如台湾想回到母亲的怀抱，大陆会立刻送上火热的胸怀，迎接台湾这个浪子迷途知返，扑入母亲怀中。

回来吧，台湾，蔡英文，你想想。

此致

敬礼！

Dear Alice，

As a teenager，I met the same problem as you. But now I can get along better with my mother. Here are some ideas for you。

Your mother talks much，because she cares about you. Maybe its not a good way，but it shows your mothers love. So I think you should listen to her. If your opinions are different from your mothers，you can communicate with her，and tell her what you are thinking about。

If your mother doesnt take your advice，just keep silent and give her a smile。

I hope what I say here can help you a lot。

Dear mother

I have been good at school. I often think of you when I go to bed because we always go for a walk before go to bed at home. So I miss you everyday. Do you miss me? Why don’t you call me? I’ve got a lot of things to tell you. One of the things is about foreign teacher’s daughter. Her name’s Skyler. She lives in Canada. She comes to our class to learn Chinese and English with me in my class. This afternoon when it was art and craft class our class were cleaning the gymnasium. And she did it with us too. So I usually talk to her when she doesn’t know what to do? But when the class is over I always haven’t got enough time to talk to her. And I usually can’t find her. So we don’t have time to introduce to each other. But it is the first time that I have a foreign student. So I’m very happy! Mum you often tell me “If you are happy I’ll be happy too.” So you have to be happy because I’m happy! I like you when you are happy! In the end I wish you everything is just fine!

YoursSophia.

Dear Santa Claus,

Hello, as time goes by, the sun and the moon fly so fast, and it will be

Christmas soon, you have to give gifts to obedient and very good children. It

reminds me of this time last year. Its long before Christmas and Im thinking

about what I want for Christmas. A few days before Christmas, I put my wish card

in front of my bed early, hoping Santa Claus can see it and help me realize it.

You may be asking, "Why put up the wish card so early? Why not wait until

Christmas Eve?" My answer is: That is because I am afraid you sent the wrong

gift, give you enough time to prepare. On Christmas Eve, I went to bed early,

thinking that I would wake up and open my eyes to see the gift you gave me. But

when I opened my eyes in the morning, I found no present at the end of my bed,

nor on my desk. I was worried because I thought you had hidden the present for

some joke with me. I searched my home carefully, but still there was no present.

I waited another day with great anticipation, but you and your gift still did

not appear. My mother told me that because they do not care for the environment,

Shijiazhuang is seriously polluted, haze weather is bad, you lost your way, so

you can not send Christmas gifts to the children on time. Is that right? Three

days later, I finally received your gift, which was accompanied by a letter of

apology. In the letter, you explained that due to the weather, you delayed the

delivery of the gift. At the same time, you also hoped that we could take good

care of the environment and be guardians of the environment.

Dear Santa Claus, another year has passed, in this year, my friends and I,

protect the environment, save water, try to be a good environmental small guard,

at the same time we also mobilize our father, mother, uncle, aunt and we take

action together, less drive a day a week, green travel. After our joint efforts,

shijiazhuang sky blue, water green, I believe this time you will be able to send

gifts to the children on time!

亲爱的圣诞老人：

您好，时光流逝，日月如梭，马上又要到圣诞节了，您又要给听话又很乖的小朋友派送礼物了。说到这就又想起去年的这个时候了，距圣诞节还好久我就开始想圣诞节自己要的礼物。圣诞节前几天，我早早的把自己的愿望卡挂在自己床前，希望圣诞老人能早点看到并帮我实现。您也许会问：“为什么这么早就把愿望卡挂上去呢?为什么不等到平安夜呢?”我的回答是：那是因为我怕您送错了礼物，给您充足的时间来准备。平安夜的晚上，我早早的就上床睡觉了，想着一觉醒来睁开眼就能看到您送我的礼物。可是，当我早上睁开眼睛，发现我床头没有礼物，我的写字台上也没有礼物，我着急了，以为您和我开玩笑把礼物藏起来了，索性把家里认真得找了个遍，还是没有。我怀着期待的心情又等了一天，您和您的礼物仍旧没有出现。妈妈告诉我，是因为他们不爱护环境，石家庄污染严重，雾霾天气恶劣，您迷路了，所以不能准时把圣诞礼物送到小朋友手中。是这样吗?三天后，我终于收到您的礼物，伴随礼物而来的还有您一封致歉信，信中你说明了因为天气原因，致使你延误了礼物的派送的时间，同时您也希望我们能够爱护环境，做环境小卫士。

亲爱的圣诞老人，又一年过去了，在这一年里我和我的小伙伴们，保护环境，节约用水，努力当好环境小卫士，同时我们还动员我们的爸爸、妈妈、叔叔、阿姨和我们一起行动起来，每周少开一天车，绿色出行。经过我们大家的共同努力，石家庄的天蓝了，水绿了，相信这次您一定能够准时将礼物送到小朋友手中啦!

盼着您的朋友：李子健

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!

Dear Michael,

You want to know the changes about my hometown. You know, great changes

have taken place since 60 years ago.

In the past, the living conditions were very poor. There were not many

buses or cars, and the roads were narrow. Usually, a big family was crowded into

a small, dark house. Most families couldn’t get enough food. The communications

were simple and slow. People kept in touch with their friends and relatives far

away mainly by letter or telegram.

Thanks to the government, our hometown has developed rapidly in recent

years. The living conditions are much better and more comfortable. The roads are

wide. Some people have their own cars. Most of the people live in big new

houses. Quite a few adults have mobile phones. I think our lives will become

better and better because of many good policies.

Sincerely

Kang Min

One Sunday, while I was still in my sweet sleep, I was awakened by my mothers cry.

I stretched out and said, "its still early. Let me sleep a little longer.". "Mother said," there is a big dog outside. Its owner is feeding him. "I looked out of the window." Wow! A big dog ah, there are many children around watching, I came down into it, to see white hair, a long mouth, is almost as tall as me, my heart was curious and scared, it was just to buy a pet dog, get up in the morning and make it a breath of fresh air in the call outside.

Now many families have pet dogs. They listen to people very much, and I like them very much.

I got up early this morning and had breakfast quickly. Then my mother and I

took the bus to my grandmother`s home. My grandmother was glad to see me again.

She gave me candies and a cup of milk. She was really kind to me. At noon, we

had lunch, There were lofts of people. After that, I talked with my grandmother.

She laughed again an d again. Then I played with my brother and my little

sister. Finally , I said "see you " to each other.

今天早晨我起床很早,吃过早餐很快。然后,我妈妈和我搭公共汽车去外婆家。我的祖母是很高兴再见到我。她给我的糖果和一杯牛奶。她真的很仁慈地对待我。中午,我们吃午饭,有阁楼的人。之后,我跟我的祖母。她笑了一遍又一遍。然后我与我的兄弟和我的小妹妹。最后,我们互相道别。

What is happiness? Happiness is "the mother line, wandering clothing" kind of warm love;

What is happiness? Happiness is "if suddenly spring night, the trees of pear blossoms" that the vitality of life.

What is happiness? Can not tell, and the Tao is endless

Happiness is a mystery. If you ask one thousand people to answer it, there will be one thousand answers.However, in my eyes, happiness is just a state of mind, no matter big or small, as long as you feel happy, this is happiness.For me now, reading a good book is happiness.When the spring sun begins to bloom its light, when the vigorous grass clamoring for new life, when the soft breeze swept the calm lake, happiness is beside you.Move a deck chair, that a good book, you can relish into another world, one only you know how to study abroad network world, there is no noise, no pressure, no trouble.This book is not as many people know, not very philosophical, do not deliberately choose, as long as you love, as long as it can make you cry, make you laugh, you think, this is a good book, which is specific to your happiness, at least I think so.Everyone is anxious for happiness, and everyone is feeling happy.Sometimes happiness is very far away, but sometimes it is near at hand.

Dedication is happiness, giving is happiness, getting is happiness, enjoying is happiness......Sometimes, a word of blessing, an understanding of the eyes, will give others happiness.Is the feeling of happiness, or life, we live in this world, every day running continuously, even running, chasing, secular, rather than spiritual needs.Fabulously rich people may not find happiness; the right to tilt to one side of the people, not necessarily find happiness.Happiness and happiness, after all, are not money and power, but a kind of peace and quiet in the bottom of my heart.We must not miss the beautiful scenery and the happiness at hand.

Check.This is happiness.What about you?

I want to be a doctor twenty years later, to help people.Even when not a doctor, I want to be an astronaut to space exploration. If you can be a doctor to do a good doctorfamous. There are a lot of good doctor, for example, can help oneself. There are advantages to do an astronaut, for example, can have a look at the space is how, can help mankind to prove that the world there are aliens. But dothese two jobs are not easy, also very dangerous, such asthe doctor may have infectious diseases, do astronautsrocket launching and landing could explode. It is not easy to do so this two job.

我想二十年以后当一名医生，帮助人们。即使当不了医生，我也想当一名宇航员去太空探险。如果能当一名医生就要做一位有名的好医生。做医生有很多好处，比如能帮自己治病。做一名宇航员也有好处，比如能看一看太空是怎样的，能帮助人类证明世界上有没有外星人。但是要做这两份工作是不容易的，还很危险的，比如做医生有可能感染传染病，做宇航员火箭发射和降落时有可能会爆炸。所以做这两份工作都是不容易的。

April Fools Day is a day to play jokes on others, No one knows how this holiday began but people think it first started in France.

In the 16 th century, people celebrated New Years Day from March 25 to April 1. In the mid—1560s King Charles IX changed it from March 25 to January 1. But some people still celebrated in on April 1, so others called them April Fools.

Each country celebrates April Fools Day differently. In France, people call the April Fools “April Fish”. They tape a paper fish to their friends backs to fool them. When he or she finds this , they shout “April Fish!”

In England, people play jokes only in the morning. You are a “noodle” if someone fools you. In Scotland, April Fools Day is 48 hours long. They call an April Fool “April Gowk”. Gowk is another name for a cuckoo bird.
