“元”为年之始，“旦”为日之晨。“元旦”即新年开始的第一天。

字面上看，“旦”生动地反映了旭日东升的形象，它下边的一横，代表着波涛澎湃的海面，一轮红日正从海上喷薄而出，放射出灿烂辉煌的光芒。把“元”和“旦”合在一起，就是要人们以蓬勃的朝气和奋发向上的精神迎接崭新的开始。

我国历代元旦月日并不一致。直到汉武帝时才恢复夏历，以正月初一为元旦，自此历代相沿未改。

辛亥革命后，我国又将春、夏、秋、冬定为四节，即元旦为春节，端午为夏节，中秋为秋节，冬至为冬节。把阳历1月1日称为新年，而不称元旦。1949年9 月27日，中国人民政治协商会议第一届全体会议通过使用公元纪年法，才将公历1月1日正式定为元旦。

所有采用公历（阳历）的国家，都是以每年1月1日为元旦。但世界上还有许多国家和民族由于使用的历法以及宗教信仰、风俗习惯、季节气候等不同，新年元旦的日期也就各不相同。

中国的元旦，据传说起于三皇五帝之一的颛顼，距今已有3000多年的历史。“元旦”一词最早出现于《晋书》：“颛帝以孟夏正月为元，其实正朔元旦之春”的诗中。南北朝时，南朝萧子云的《介雅》诗中也有“四季新元旦，万寿初春朝”的记载。宋代吴自牧《梦粱录》卷一“正月”条目：“正月朔日，谓之元旦，俗呼为新年。一岁节序，此为之首。”；汉代崔瑗《三子钗铭》中叫“元正”；晋代庾阐《扬都赋》中称作“元辰”；北齐时的一篇《元会大享歌皇夏辞》中呼为“元春”；唐德宗李适《元日退朝观军仗归营》诗中谓之“元朔”

中国元旦历来指的是夏历（农历、阴历）正月初一。元是“初”、“始”的意思，旦指“日子”，元旦合称即是“初始的日子”，也就是一年的第一天。在汉语各地方言中有不同叫法，有叫“大年初一”的，有叫“大天初一”的，有叫“年初一”的，一般又叫“正月初一”。

正月初一从哪日算起，在汉武帝以前也是很不统一的。因此，历代的元旦月、日也并不一致。夏朝的夏历以孟喜月（元月）为正月，商朝的殷历以腊月（十二月）为正月，周朝的周历以冬月（十一月）为正月。秦始皇统一中国后，又以阳春月（十月）为正月，即十月初一为元旦。从汉武帝起，才规定孟喜月（元月）为正月，把孟喜月的第一天（夏历的正月初一）称为元旦，一直沿用到满清末年。但这是夏历，亦即农历或阴历，还不是我们今天所说的元旦。

公元1911年，孙中山领导的辛亥革命，推翻了满清的统治，建立了中华民国。各省都督代表在南京开会，决定使用公历，把农历的正月初一叫做“春节”，把公历的1月1日叫做“元旦”。不过当时并未正式公布和命名。 为了“行夏正，所以顺农时，从西历，所以便统计”，民国元年决定使用公历（实际使用是1912年），并规定阳历（公历）1月1日为“新年”，但并不叫“元旦”。

今天所说的“元旦”，是新中国成立前夕的公元1949年9月27日，中国人民政治协商会议第一届全体会议，在决定建立中华人民共和国的同时，也决定采用世界通用的公元纪年法，即是我们所说的阳历.。

在当代，元旦指公元纪年的岁首第一天。为了区别农历和阳历两个新年，又鉴于农历二十四节气中的“立春”恰在农历新年的前后，因此便把农历正月初一改称为“春节”，阳历1月1日定为新年的开始“元旦”，并列入了法定假日成为全国人民的欢乐节日。

There is an old saying that no one is perfect, so everyone will make

mistake sometimes, though we want to do best. When we make mistake, we must say

sorry to others, for the purpose of showing our regret, so that they will

forgive us and continue to keep in touch with us. Some people think apologize

will lose their faces, so they choose not to say sorry.

A wise person will make

apologize in a natural way and let the past be past, the good way to apologize

can help people feel easy. People can find the chance to apologize when they are

having communication, they can make the topic about apologize and then saying

that he is sorry about what he have done, so everything will seem easy.

Apologizing will promote people’s communication and keep their friendship. So

don’t feel losing face, just admit what you have done wrong.

Everyone admires beauty. Everyone has his own standard about beauty.

Nowadays some people tend to think that they own beauty if they have a good

looking. They are not satisfied with their appearance. They spend much money

taking a kind of operation. Can beauty really be man-made? If so， everybody can

get beauty. As a result， there is no beauty at all.

The appearance is given by our parents and is unique in the world. Everyone

should value it. Id rather prefer nature as the standard of beauty. Just accept

yourself， accept everything the god gives to you， and create the beautiful life

belong to you.

Many heroes dont have beautiful surface. However， their beautiful images

often come to our minds. Their beauty comes from their contributions to the

society.

Dont be eager to judge whether a person is beautiful or not without a

thorough understanding of him. A beautiful person is not the one with a good

looking， but with a broad and kind heart.

Good looking is pleasant while spiritual beauty is more important. As an

old saying goes， “ Virtue is fairer than beauty. ” If you have a kind heart， you

own real beauty.

Which is better, shopping online or traditional shopping? Different people

have different attitudes towards it. Some people think that online shopping is

very convenient, for it can save them a lot of time and energy. It’s especially

helpful for those who are always busy with their work. Besides, through the

internet, they can get more information about the commodities they want to buy

and buy a lot of things that cannot be bought in local places.

Nevertheless, I’m not keen on online shopping at all, since most

commodities which are bought online are of poor quality. Once we are cheated, we

may find it difficult to make a complaint. Thus we should take more cautions

when shopping online.

In my eyes, I prefer traditional shopping, because I can choose what I

really need. Also, I can know the quality of every commodity more clearly. Even

if there’s something wrong with the commodities, I can still ask the sellers to

compensate for my loss.

In our life, everyone 情态动词+have . Some could be found at last. But some of them couldn’t be found forever. I had an unforgettable experience. One day, I went home happily.

when my teacher told me to prepare for this competition i restated, hesitated.everybody in my class knows that. i never learned english in my primary school.i couldn’t speak english one year ago, but now, could i take part in this competition? no, i can’t. is aid to myself? i’m afraid ofmaking mistakes before so many learned professors and before my classmates and teachers.sud- denly!

my daddy was not happy because he thought it was not good for my study.Sometimes I felt I was not a free boy when my daddy was so strict with me,so I tried to talk to my daddy,and he said he was happy because I talked to him,and now he let me play games if I study well.From this,I understand a friendly talk can help people get along well.

We are always educated to be an honest person, especially to our parents. While the fact is that every kid will lie to their parents in their lives. For me, my parents are very strict, I am not allowed to go out at night, because the news always reports the bad incidents happen at night. But night activity attracts me a lot, and my friends like to hang out for fun at night, so I choose to lie to my parents and tell them I am doing my homework with my friends. Now as I grow up, I realize it is not right to tell lies, so I decide to be honest to my parents. Once they realize that I am not a little kid anymore, then I will have my right to do what I want.

This winter is freezing cold. I didn’t have any desire to go out for play.

anxious for staying inside too long, I will go near the window to wach the

I just didn’t want to go out. Later my mother found that I was so lazy. Then she

forced me to go out. Since my mother said, I have no excuse to reject. My mother

is right. Though the outside was icy, it’s fantastic. Everything smells fresh.

Since then, I went outside everyday, and then did my homework and felt full of

energy. The holiday ended very soon. It was a lazy holiday.

This morning i went to the english corner which is in the park near my home. it is three years since it was founded.

behind other students. I did not know what to do, I just wanted to get away from

much pressure and she suggested me to take relax and made progress step by step.

She said everything would be better someday. Now I have made progress and when I

look back on the passed days, it was just a small problem for me. I got over the

hard moment and become a strong person.

World Environment Day is started from 1972, which is established by the United Nations General Assembly for raising global awareness to take actions to protect the Nature. The establishment of World Environment Day shows people’s the cognition and the attitude to the environmental problem, and expresses our human beings’ desire of pursuing the better environment. Every year the United Nations Environment Program proposes a theme, and the 2014 theme of this day will focus on ‘Small Island and Climate change’ and the slogan is “Raise Your Voice Not the Sea Level”.

世界环境日，起始于1972年，它是联合国为了提高全球的环保意识而创建的。环境日的创立展现了人们对环境问题的认识和态度，表达了人们对美好环境的追求渴望。每一年联合国环境规划署都会提出一个环境日主题，而的主题主要着重于小岛屿与气候变化，今年的口号是“提高你的呼声，而不是海平面”。

World Environment Day can be celebrated in lots of ways, for instances, planting trees, doing some recycling, participating the clean-up campaigns and so on. Certainly people can also do something simple, like going to work by bus instead of private cars. I believe if everyone takes environmental actions as a habit, we are doing a big difference for the better environment.庆祝世界环境日的方式多种多样，例如植树，对废物进行循环利用，参加清洁行动等等。

当然，人们也可以做些简单的小事来纪念，比如说不做私家车上班，改乘公交车去上班。我相信只要大家都将这些环保小事当作习惯，我们将会为建造美好环境做出重大贡献。
