小学一年级英语作文我的英国朋友MyEnglishfriend【推荐20篇】

亲爱的28中8年级28班的各位莘莘学子们：

你们好!

元宵节漫天的礼花还未散尽，新年的第一次晨读已经响起，我可爱的孩子们，你们满怀着对未来美好的憧憬和负重前行的豪情，又一次踏上了新的征程。

在刚刚过去的寒假里，在老师和各位同学的共同努力下，你们度过了一个祥和、快乐、安全而有意义的寒假生活，特别是假期学习安全小组更是用自己有序高效、和谐互助的团队组织，赢得了我们家长们的认可，在此我谨代表28班的各位家长对你们表示衷心的感谢，并真诚的向你们说一声：“同学们，你们好样的!”。

千里之行始于足下。在新的学期里，你们将迎来了更艰巨的学业任务，生物、地理、微机三门会考压力山大。俗话说，狭路相逢勇者胜，任何困难挑战都是大家前进路上的加油站;宝剑锋从磨砺出，任何艰难险阻又是大家奋斗途中的磨刀石。每当看着你们个子越来越高，想法越来越透，我们就越来越相信，你们定会用自己尚显单薄的肩膀，肩负起属于你们的责任;用自己尚显稚嫩的双手，托起明天的太阳!

最后，祝我可爱的同学们学业精进，开心快乐!

一位家长大朋友

When I was picking up my stuff after school， I saw a dog staring at me at the school gate .I was kind of scary. I thought the dog would bite me when I was going out. But it was not. The dog started to follow me. I was very afraid. I started to run away， but the dog did it， either. Suddenly， the dog ran pass away me. I realized the man in front of me was the owner of the dog. I was relieved.

From then on， as long as a dog stares at me， I will look back to have a look whether there is another person near or not.

我家有一个大鱼缸，里面养着十几条可爱的七彩神仙鱼，扁扁的身体，形状有点像鲳鱼，有全红的、黄底红点的、红白相间的、蓝色的等，游动时候鱼鳍和尾巴就像舞动的绸带，可漂亮了！我最喜欢的是蓝色的神仙鱼，它的身上有许多亮闪闪的淡蓝色鱼鳞，在灯光的照射下，从远处一看，它就像穿上了宝石做的衣服，亮亮的，真美啊！神仙鱼喜欢吃鱼汉堡，红棕色一块块。

每次当爸爸把鱼汉堡放进水里，小鱼们就像饥饿的小狮子一样，争先恐后的围拢过来，没几秒食物就被它们抢了个精光！我和爸爸喜欢站在鱼缸前面看它们，有时候会发生很多有趣的事！又一次，爸爸把鱼缸的底下的玻璃擦洗得干干净净的，就像一面镜子，这时神仙鱼们纷纷低下头，看玻璃，像臭美的小女孩在看自己的样貌，好可爱啊！还有一次，爸爸把鱼缸的盖子打开，想给它们透透气，可爱的神仙鱼们都一起游到了上面，脑袋凑一起，原来它们以为爸爸又要喂鱼汉堡了，我和爸爸全被逗乐了！我喜欢我家可爱又漂亮的七彩神仙鱼！

我的家乡是一个令我痴醉的地方。那里没有黄山的山峦群峰、云雾缭绕;没有泰山的宏伟、高大;也没有庐山瀑布那么壮观，但它一年四季都那么迷人，是值得留恋的地方。 My hometown is a place to get intoxicated by me.There are no mountains and clouds in the mountains of Huangshan; there is no grand and tall in Taishan; and not as spectacular as Lushan Waterfall, but it is so charming all year round and is worth nostalgic.

春天，家乡是一派生机勃勃的景象。一株株小草着急地探出了小脑袋，感受着春天的气息。花儿争先恐后地展示出自己的美丽，向人们炫耀呢。你瞧：牡丹花骄傲地在橡树旁边手舞足蹈，一边哼着歌一边扭着腰，看似一位妖娆万千的少女。而橡树也在吹嘘着自己的伟大，因为它可以给人们带来清爽。百合花谦虚地夸耀大地与雨水，认真地为它们筹办谢礼。我家乡的柑橘树呢，正发着嫩绿的小芽。瞧：它那粗壮的树干是那么坚韧，在小芽的陪伴下，它更有颜色了。

夏天，阳光照射着大地，早晨的家乡云雾笼罩，给人以一种朦胧的感觉。当云雾散去的时候，空气是那么清新，当你深吸一口气，会感觉那清新的空气十分凉爽，让人好不惬意。茂盛的柑橘林为你遮阳，一阵微风吹来，那闷热的感觉已去，来的是凉凉的微风。

当秋风来临的时候，我的家乡显然是一派丰收的景象。你快看，柑橘已经橙黄了，一个个正冲着你笑呢，一个个像灯笼一样。当你摘下一个柑橘，剥开皮细细咀嚼，你会感觉这美味可口的柑橘像离不开似的。麦子一片金黄，微风突袭，金色的波浪一浪接一浪，“唆唆唆”的声音就好像在说：“快来割吧!快来割吧!我都等不及了!”

冬天，家乡就好像冰清玉洁的世界，所有的景物都被冬姑娘换上银装，冰彻般的玉，是那么洁白。

啊我的家乡虽不及那些名山名水，却是我值得留念的地方。我想大声地说：美丽的家乡，我永远爱你!

During the winter vacation, nothing is different for my life. i wake up 11 oclock am everyday, after a washing, i have a good lunch with my parents. next i play computer games till the time to have supper. after have dinner. i go on playing till 2 oclock am, and then go to sleep with tired. this is one dull day of my winter vacation.

But i havent bored all the time. sometimes i read the books, sometime i listen to the music or the radio in the bed, because it was very cold outside and snowy all the day. and i also meat some of my good friends during the vacation, we have a very long talk about the life of each other in the past year and play table tennis tegether. and i watched the spring festival party of the cctv in the last seconds of the 2004 year! i think this is the thing most people of china doing at that time.

在这个世界里，人类的朋友有很多，而狗却是陪伴人一生的忠实在朋友。

我也有一条属于自己的狗狗，我把它取名于小白。为什么呢?原因很简单，因为它是一条小白狗。记得它刚到我家时，对家里一切的事物都十分陌生。所以，它经常会躲到床下，不敢出来。时间长了，小白也从原来的胆小与害怕，变化成一只贪吃的、会撒娇、更会捣乱的小狗狗了。

放学回家，第一个来迎接我的就是小白了。它总会兴奋地扑进我的怀里，用它那毛绒绒的小脑袋在我怀里蹭来蹭去。我一看它那圆溜溜的大眼睛，就知道它肯定又想吃月饼了。不知为何，它最爱吃的就是月饼了，我想，可能月饼是甜食吧!我把月饼掰开，放入小白的专属小碗中。它看到后，蹦蹦跳跳地朝我汪汪的叫了好几声，我想它肯定在对我说：“主人!你真好，给了我爱吃的月饼。谢谢你!”如果它真是这样想，这该是一只多么有礼貌的小狗。你们说对吧!

它虽然很贪吃，但有时也很乖，但它同样真会捣乱。这个我可不是口说无凭，我是有证据的呢。就拿上个星期的“惨案”来说吧!那天，我们全家都出去了，把小白关进了屋子里。不知它什么时候又跑进了床下。我们找了半天，也没有看到它，以为它已经出去了。神不知鬼不觉的它成了一个躲藏高手呢!这时，又一件意外的事情发生了。小白突然从床底下跑出来跳到床上，把能咬的都咬了，能撕的都撕了。看到这一幕，我们都惊呆了，却也拿它没办法。

我家的小白，有时让我开心，有时又令我忧伤。不过，我还是很喜欢它!

我家养了一只小兔子，它是一只小白兔。说起小白兔，你们你一定会想到它十分胆小吧，但我家这只小白兔，可是即可爱又淘气呢！

我家的小白兔可漂亮了，一对长长的耳朵，还有一双红宝石似的眼睛，别看它四条小腿很短，可跑起来和我比也毫不逊色，一身洁白的长毛像雪花一样亮的刺眼。

我们家的小白兔，可是有一套“独门绝技”：讨食加卖萌，瞬间击垮你的心理防线。当你打开冰箱的时候，它就会以迅雷不及掩耳之势，跑到你的身边，用两条后脚支地，两个前脚放在胸前，等着你给它拿好吃的；如果你假装没看到，不搭理它时，它就会用前脚趴在你的腿上，水灵灵的眼睛瞅着你，好像在说：“我，我，我在这儿呢，快给我点吃的吧！”看着它那呆萌的，让你哭笑不得的小表情，使得你不得不给他点吃的。

淘气就更不用说了，有一次我和妈妈把菜叶放在茶几上，就去各忙各的了。不知道是小白兔饿了，还是它他闻到蔬菜的香气就跑过去，竟然尝试着跳了几次都没跳到茶几上，最后是先跳到小椅子上，而后再跳到桌子上。

我喜欢我们家的小白兔，它是我最可爱的动物朋友。

Fifth lunar month is the Dragon Boat Festival, also called DuanYangJie,

afternoon day festival, may festival, ai festival, terminal five, C______,

midday, summer day. Although the name is different, but all around the custom of

农历五月初五为端午节，又称端阳节、午日节、五月节、艾节、端五、重午、午日、夏节。虽然名称不同，但各地人民过节的习俗是相同的。端午节是我国二千多年的旧习俗，每到这一天，家家户户挂艾叶菖蒲，赛龙舟，吃粽子，饮雄黄酒，游百病，佩香囊。

今天是端午节，大家知道端午节的来历吗?!不知道吧!那就让我来告诉你们吧!你们还记得楚国那位爱国大将屈原吗?我来说一说他吧!

屈原是战国时期出国人，很有学问。他在楚王身边做官，以形象是自己的国家富强起来。昏君楚王却听信奸臣的话，把屈原削职流放。在流放中，屈原听说楚国的都城被敌人占领，百姓遭难，悲愤极了。五月初五这一天，他来到汨罗江边，怀抱一块石头，以纵身跳入汨罗江中。出国的百姓听到屈原投江的消息，都十分悲痛。他们含着泪划着船赶来打捞屈原，还把粽子扔到江里喂鱼，希望鱼儿不要伤害屈原的身体。这就是五月端阳包粽子的来历。

端午节还有许多有趣的活动。列如赛龙舟，挂香囊，香囊内有朱砂、雄黄、香药，外包以丝布，清香四溢，再以五色丝线弦扣成索，作各种不同形状，结成一串，形形色色，玲珑夺目。还有挂艾叶、菖蒲的习惯。

端午节的活动可真多啊!

Parents love， everywhere. My parents are my favorite people， but also the most let I respect people， thank them for me to raise me， for my life and study.

Since kindergarten， parents began to bid farewell to life easily. Because I have to go to school on time， so they wake me up on time every morning and ready for breakfast， and then send me to school， school， day after day， year by year， three years in a row.

In elementary school， the parents at the contact schools on the move for me， hope I have a good learning environment.

Into the school， and on time every day to take me home， rain or shine.

The Dragon Boat Festival, must not not include dumplings! Today, my sister is teaching me the dumplings! You see.

Make zongzi must be prepared. My sister was ready to soak for three hours of glutinous rice and bought the leaves, which surprised me.

I put my rice in the leaves, and I was all over the table, and I was angry. My sister said to me, "you want to make a triangular shape of the leaf and put the rice in it!"

So I did what my sister said, and pressed it on the rice. Whats in the middle of that dish? It was minced meat! I dug a small hole in the middle of the glutinous rice and made it into a round shape, stuffing it into glutinous rice and adding it to the glutinous rice. How can you seal it? I looked at my sister and knew everything.

I pressed down one of the warped leaves and pressed the rope hard. Success! I covered a lot of them in the previous method. Now its time to get the pot down, boil the water first, and then put the dumplings on.

After a while, the dumplings were cooked. The four of you sat at the table and ate the dumplings.

I untied the rope and was trying to remove the leaves, but when I touched it, it was hot. Her sister looked and laughed. I blew and blew the heat away. I again carefully will leaves open, eat up to her delicious dumplings - among all be stuffed glutinous rice, wrapped in a delicious meat, fresh juice in your mouth, no oil is not greasy, and chewy, feels so good!

So the Dragon Boat Festival in the past, his mouth to eat with his hand package dumplings, thought the tang dynasty poet du fu wrote poems: palace clothing is famous, dragon boat be reward. The wind is soft and the snow is light. When the weather is wet, lets go to the heat. The meaning is the length of the word, the whole life.

What a happy Dragon Boat Festival!

过端午节，一定少不了粽子!今天，姐姐就在教我包粽子呢!你瞧。

做粽子一定要有准备的。原来，姐姐已准备好浸泡了3个小时的糯米，同时也买好了粽叶，这样准备就让我大吃一惊了。

我把米放在叶子里，可米全撒在了桌上，我生气极了。姐姐对我说：“你要把叶子做成一个三角形的样子，然后再把米放进去啊!”

于是，我按照姐姐说的步骤作了一遍，在米上按了按，咦?旁边那个盘子中间放的是什么?原来是肉馅哦!我在糯米中间挖了一个小洞洞，把肉馅弄成圆状，塞入糯米中，让它也加入糯米的行列中。可怎么封好呢?我看了眼姐姐，就明白了一切。

我把翘起来的一片叶子按下来，并用绳子用力的扎紧。成功啦!我按照前面的方法，包了好多个。现在就要下锅了，先是把水烧开，然后把粽子放下去。

过了一会儿，粽子煮好了。大家四人坐在桌子旁，吃起了粽子。

我把绳子解开，正想把叶子摘掉，可我一碰，就被烫着了。姐姐看了，哈哈的笑了起来。我吹着吹着，把让热气吹走了。我再次小心翼翼的将叶子掀开，吃起了自己亲手做的香喷喷的粽子来——白白胖胖的糯米中间，包着一团鲜汁可口的肉馅，放入口中，不油不腻，又有嚼劲，感觉太好了!

端午节就这么过去了，嘴里吃着自己亲手包的粽子，心里想着我国唐代诗人杜甫写的诗：宫衣亦有名，端午被恩荣。细葛含风软，香罗叠雪轻。自天题处湿，当暑着来清。意内称长短，终身荷圣情。

这真是一个快乐的端午节!

我家有一只活泼可爱的小比熊，它是我的好朋友。

小比熊狗非常可爱，它全身长着白色的绒毛，摸在手上特别舒服，一尘不染的毛，看上去就像白色的绒球。小小的比熊狗有一双大大的眼睛，就像一对黑宝石，嵌在闪闪发光的蓝玉石上。小比熊狗，还有一只锋利的爪子。它的叫声很特别，不像别人家的狗汪汪叫，而是阿呜阿呜的叫，我为它起了一个好听的名字叫球球，因为它已经胖得像一个球了，它特别能吃，一口气可以吃五个大梨呢!而且它什么都吃，就是不吃狗粮!

它的性格十分古怪，说它老实吧，的确是呀要不怎么三天都不出声呢?说它贪吃吧一点也没说错，我们吃饭的时候它就会飞快地跑出来。

球球可淘气了。我们每天早上起床不是发现少了一只鞋，就是发现鞋子里有股臭味，这一定是球球干的，可是每当这时候我都找不到它，它好像自己已经知道犯了错误，看它可怜巴巴的样子，让人不免又有一种怜爱，轻轻地抚摸着它柔软的绒毛，我的怒气早已抛到九霄云外去了。

每天我放学回家时，它总是围着我转悠，我写作业时，球球就趴在我脚下，静静地看着我。这就是我的小狗球球，也就是我的宝贝。

我爱我家的宝贝球球。

My birthday is on the 23rd of Sep.I had a birthday party.

My last birthday,I was very excited.All my family had a birthday party for me.Suddenly,the doorbell was ringing.My grandma said:"Tracy,open the door,please."I opened the door.Oh,theyre my aunt and cousin.They gave me a book and said:"Tracy,happy birthday to you.Do you like the present?"I said:"Of course.Thank you.Welcome to my birthday party,sit down,please."

My mother put the cake on the table and said:"Tracy,the party begins.Come here."I went into the dining-room.They sang the song:"Happy birthday to you."to me.My cousin said:"The cake looks very good,lets eat it."Then we ate the cake together.It was nice.

My birthday party is very exciting,we spent a good time!

我的生日是在23日我有一个生日聚会。

我上次的生日,我很兴奋。我所有的家人对我有一个生日聚会。突然,门铃响了。我奶奶说:“特蕾西,请打开门。“我开了门。哦,他们是我的姑妈和表姐。他们给了我一本书,说:“特雷西,祝你生日快乐。你喜欢礼物吗?”我说:“当然可以。谢谢你!欢迎来到我的生日聚会,请坐下。”

我妈妈把蛋糕放在桌子上,说:“特雷西,派对开始。来这里。“我走进了餐厅。他们唱这首歌:“祝你生日快乐。“给我。我的表弟说:“蛋糕看起来很好,让我们吃。“然后我们一起吃了蛋糕。这是好。

我的生日聚会很刺激,我们度过了一段美好的时光!

礼貌，几乎在每一刻都存在。不管在什么时候，就拿这一次来说说吧。

我约了几个小伙伴下楼来玩。小李说：“咱们玩三个字吧!”“好啊!”我和小王异口同声地说。“剪子、包袱、锤”结果小王输了，我和小李胜了。小王开始抓我和小李，第一次小王抓到了小李，可就剩一点才能抓住呢!可小王偏偏说他抓住了小李，小李执着地说：“哼，你耍赖!你要再这样，我们就不带你玩了!”“呸”小王吐了小李一口唾沫。“你干嘛?”小李说。“我不干嘛!”小王说。话音才刚落，小王就出了一拳，小李不服气，也给了小王一拳。就这样，他们便激烈地打了起来。小李说：“你不讲理。”小王没好气地说：“我就不讲理!”两人打得不分胜负。我生气地说：“别打了，别打了!”可他们还在继续打。我说：“既然咱们做了朋友，就务必互相帮忙，哪有当了朋友就互相打架的。”我讲完以后，他们停了下来。小王不好意思地说：“我……不就应这样，对……不起!”小李高兴地说：“没关系!”两人就拉起手来继续高兴地做游戏。

看，这样的事例我想不止一个，所以朋友之间要互相帮忙，这样才能创造出一个和谐的社会。

我的奶奶养了一只可爱的小兔子，我给它起名叫小白。

小白穿着一身雪白的衣裳，那两只红红的眼睛，就像两个晶莹剔透的玻璃球，一团白色的小球贴在屁股上，两只长耳朵毛茸茸的可爱极了。

小白的吃相淘气可爱，只见它俯下脑袋，伸出嘴巴一点一点的咬如翡翠一般的青菜，露出两颗洁白的牙齿。接着它便一个劲儿钻进菜中，不停的在这片绿色中打滚儿，吃完了菜叶，可它还是觉得没吃饱，翻箱倒柜的找食物吃。

小白也很贪玩，每当我带它出去玩，它都向游乐场跑去。它最喜欢荡秋千，它坐在秋千上，两颗小眼睛看着我，好像在说：“小主人，帮我推推。”我慢慢的推着秋千，小白越荡越高，即使她不小心从秋千上掉了下来，也并不影响它，而是转身又继续玩起来。

小白很可爱，当你不开心的时候，它总喜欢爬过来舔舔你的小手，蹭蹭你的身子，应该是让你帮它抓痒，是不是很可爱。

我喜欢小白。

I have a good friend. Her name is Pencil-box. She is a very beautiful girl. Look! there is a picture on her face. Its a picture of flowers. Her coat is blue and yellow. there are some pencils, a pen, a ruler, a rubber and a tape in her stomach.

From Monday to Friday, I go to school with her. When I want to copy or write the new words, I open her mouth and take out the pencil from her stomach. She helps me a lot. And I like her very much.

Our country has an ancient patriotic poet named Qu Yuan, he was e_iled by

the calumny, the inability to save the peril of the country, e_cessive anger, so

Jiang himself voted to Health martyred. It is for him not to eat the bodies of

fish and shrimp, one after another to the various pancake into the river, the

water used to feed animals, and some ship off the water at the water beast. This

has become now the Dragon Boat Festival, eating dumplings, fried cake, the

origin of the dragon-boat race.

Having said that, I think of my family have been the scene of the Dragon

Boat Festival. Grandmother pinch a different type of pancake, has florets,

small, small starfish, is really different form. hurry to go shopping Kok,

calmly took my father to buy tzu. A long row of teams, like a long queue, we

managed to buy a tzu. We can see that every household have attached great

importance to this holiday, people in this way to e_press their thoughts and

reverence Yuan.

我国古代有一位爱国诗人叫屈原，他遭谗言被放逐后，无力拯救危亡的国家，悲愤过度，于是投江自尽，以生殉国。人们为了不使鱼虾吃掉他的尸体，纷纷将捏成的各种各样的饼子投入江中，用来喂饱水中的动物，有的划着船在水上敲锣打鼓驱赶水兽。这便成为现在端午节，吃粽子、炸糕点、赛龙舟的由来。

说到这里，我又想起了我家过端午节的情景。奶奶捏了种类不同的饼子，有小花，小人，小海星，真是形态各异。妈妈急着去买菜角，爸爸不慌不忙地拉着我去买粽子。排着长长的队，好似一条长龙，我们好不容易才买到了粽子。可以看出，家家户户都很重视这个节日，人们用这种方式来表达对屈原的思念和崇敬。

你见过山吗?山是高耸入云的。你见过海吗?海是宽阔无边的。大自然的伟大是让人们赞扬的，瞧，大自然把自己展现在池塘的舞台上。 Have you ever seen the mountain? The mountain is towering into the clouds.Have you seen the sea? The sea is wide and boundless.The greatness of nature is praised by people. Look, nature shows himself on the stage of the pond.

夏季，池塘里会搭起一个个小舞台荷叶，它不引人注目，也没有荷花的婀娜多姿，每次在池塘边站立，我却最喜欢观察它。一阵绵绵的细雨过后，放眼望去，满池的荷叶经过雨水的洗涤，翠色欲滴，袅袅娜娜。我站在池塘边向远处眺望，忽然一个亮点在我眼前闪过，跑近了一看，荷叶上有一滴水珠，它们像调皮的孩子，互相追逐嬉戏，一会儿滚作一团。我好奇地伸手摸一摸荷叶，咦，荷叶上一点儿也不湿，这是怎么回事呢?

我忍不住弯下腰去，凑近了仔细观察，荷叶表面有一层柔软的小绒毛，用手舀一点儿水，放在荷叶上。没想到这水一沾到荷叶全部变成了水珠，荷叶一动，水珠像珍珠似的从荷叶上纷纷掉下来，“嘀嗒”一声掉进了池塘。我明白了，就是这些绒毛让荷叶不被雨水淋湿!在雨点滚落到水中时，雨点儿还会带走灰尘。难怪荷叶会“出淤泥而不染，濯清涟而不妖”呢!

天空又开始淅沥沥地下起了雨，我撑起雨伞，有一点灵光在我脑海中闪过。每次下雨，我的雨伞都会被雨淋湿。如果把伞带到家里，放在地上，立刻会出现一滩水，走路时不当心，我们可能会滑倒;晚上撑开伞在客厅里晾着，不但占位置，还会让我们绊一跤。如果我能发明一把特别的伞，就可以解决这些问题了。

这把雨伞要选用很轻的材料做成，拿起来很轻便。伞的面上也有一些细微的绒毛，这些绒毛可以在雨天，不让雨淋湿伞。当我们撑着伞走到家门口，只要轻轻抖一抖伞，伞上的雨水会抱着那些灰尘，自己滚落下来。这样我们就可以把干燥而干净的雨伞拿回家了。

大自然像一本书，给了我们许多的启示。“一沙一世界，一花一天堂。”大自然的世界中，充满着奥秘，需要我们留心观察，仔细探索。

Dear Sir,

I noticed an ad. In the paper today you said you were looking for people to join your expedition team. It sounded as if it might be fun so Im writing to say Id like to come along.

About myself: I left school at 16 because I wanted to earn a bit of money. After that I got a few part-time jobs as a waiter, etc. But I didnt stick to any of them for long. Recently Ive been doing a bit of hitch-hiking round

Europe so Ive had some experience of traveling the hard way which should come in handy on the expedition youre planning. By the way, Im a great guitarist so I can keep you all amused round the campfire at night.Let me know when I can call in for a chat about dates and other details, etc.

Yours,

David Smith

New Year is the biggest festival for Chinese people. After about half a

month, there is a traditional festival, it is the Lantern Festival, which is

also important. The first round moon day in the New Year is special. People

continue to celebrate the New Year and enjoy the time with their families.

The coming of Lantern Festival is various. Some people said that it is

related with Buddha. When the Buddhas meditated, they need light in front of

them, so the light can drive away monster for people. Today, in some areas,

people light up lanterns to beg for a son from god. No matter what the story is,

the traditional festival is favored by people and the government pays special

attention to remind this tradition.

There are many activities on Lantern Festival, and the most traditional

game is the riddle. People can read some riddles that are written in the

lanterns. They can get prizes if they know the answers. I love riddle so much,

because when I figure out the answers, I will be very proud of myself, at the

same time, I can learn some funny knowledge.
