After eating the new years Eve dinner, our whole family sat there laughing and talking, waiting for the 201X Spring Festival Gala to be launched, and the annual Spring Festival Gala again. Everyones mind was very comfortable.

I find this years party is a spring and evening meal, the program is wonderful, especially the childrens dance "pony pony". In a cheerful and strong sense of rhythm music, dozens of children playing cute pony, dance on the stage, a few "horse" leader of the "pony", Thomas also staged a slip kneeling pronation, windmill and other difficult dance moves, finally, at the end of the children cheerful happy New Year sound, even Qing Dong also praised the children "Adorable".

In the end of the song "unforgettable tonight" middle-aged CCTV Spring Festival gala. More than 4 hours of the horse Spring Festival makes people feel a bit more warmth and warmth.

The Spring Festival Gala of 201X is much better than that in the past years. I hope that the Spring Festival Gala of 201X can be more wonderful. I look forward to the Spring Festival Gala next year!

Now more and more bike sharing brands have emerged, such as ofo, Mobai,

Wukong bicycle, Xiaoming bicycle and so on, which are convenient for our travel.

As long as we download a software, we can pay some money to rent a car. However,

since I saw some phenomena, I have asked myself, "is bike sharing convenient or

harmful?"

Bike sharing is very popular recently. Ofo software or other sharing

software can be found in almost all mobile phones of "mobile phone family".

However, once my mother came home full of anger, scared me to speak. I shuddered

and asked, "Mom, what makes you so angry?" She put the bag in her hand on the

table and made a loud "pa -". "Your sister helped me install an ofo software in

my mobile phone. I wanted to make it easy to ride back with good medicine, but

today I rented a" broken car "!" I was puzzled: "ofo still has a broken car

"That is, otherwise, how could my feet be bruised?" She moved her foot to me,

and a black wheel mark was still visible. "When I was riding, the chain was

loose. If it wasnt for my fast braking speed, I would have fallen off!" Since

then, Ive been less fond of bike sharing.

Once I went to a make-up class, I saw two workers sitting on a Mobi

bicycle, shaking and laughing. Dad was very indignant and said: "this kind of

person really does not speak of public morality! Make fun of the public car I

know that they wont do this with their cars. My heart is like bleeding. Why,

they want to "bully" bike sharing.

Once I went out to play. The weather was very good and I was in a good

mood. I look up to the side, really do not see do not know, a look scared. A man

secretly removed the wheel of an ofo and replaced it with a bad one on his own.

After that, he rode off on the ofo wheel. Only the ofo little yellow car was

lying alone, and the wheels were not installed properly. It is like a injured

little girl, whose legs have been taken away, like vanca, can not endure the

sunshine of life. At that time, my tears began to drop. Is bike sharing "shared"

or "exclusive"?

There have been news reports that a boy under 12 years old riding a shared

bicycle was run over by a car and killed. At that time, the boys mother shared

the companys money to compensate for her sons death. Its clearly her sons fault.

He didnt ride a bike before he was 12 years old. I didnt say he deserved it. But

the fact is better than eloquence. The death of her son is not the

responsibility of the sharing company, but his own fault!

I once saw a young man riding ofo without scanning the code. A middle-aged

man pushed ofo into his home. Have you ever seen someone use Mobi without

decoding as fitness equipment? The sound of chain jingling is like a demon with

a chain in his hand crawling out of hell. Thats selfish!

Someone took an image that put the broken ofo and Moby together to fill a

small parking lot. After riding shared bicycles, people park them on the side of

the road at will. As long as a passer-by gently knocks down a car, it will fall

down like a domino.

Have you ever thought that sharing resources is closely related to each of

us, but all the harm they bring is due to selfishness. Bike sharing is just one

example. Ive seen shared bookstores where people leave books on their desks

after reading, so that they cant go home. "Convenience to others, convenience to

oneself." As long as we are convenient for others, we will also benefit

ourselves.

Every family has its own start-up and family precepts. Dan has a osmosis and important influence to everybody, it is like the spring wind people people generally moist summer rain rain, influence people. No home, no society, Dans influence on the society as a whole are huge, countless good start-up can cause necessarily good social conduct.

If a person, he has a good home family trait, so he can surely little detours. And if his family trait, then many walked curved road.

Our family trait is "integrity". Honesty is to open, with a clean SLATE be honest, do your own thing will be accountable, can not pass the buck to others. The letter is to keep your words, words like pour out the water out, cant back, said to himself. In addition to Dan, there is another led people - family precepts. As opposed to a family trait, our family precepts is "good faith, practical work. Work to be steadfast, step-by-step. Like the way to go step by step, rice to a bite to eat. If light thinking about how do things, then do a thing also wont have too big achievements. On the contrary, if a man can do in front of down-to-earth to concentrate on every thing, dont aim high, must be able to accomplish something.

In short, the family is an important part of society, every successful person must have a good family trait and family precepts. And a good family trait family precepts each family member is required to build, only builds the start-up family precepts strictly, can we little detours.

每个家庭都有自己的家风和家训。家风对每个人都有着潜移默化而重要的影响，它就像春风风人夏雨雨人一般滋润，影响着人们。没有家就没有这个社会，家风对整个社会的影响都是巨大的，无数好的家风必然可以引起好的社会风气。

如果一个人，他家中有好的家风，那么他定可以少走弯路;而如果他的家风败坏，那么就少不得走弯弯道了。

我们家的家风便是“诚信”二字。诚就是要堂堂正正，清清白白地诚实做人，自己做的事情就要勇于承担，不能向别人身上推卸责任。而信就是要守信，说出去的话就如同泼出去的水，不能收回来，说过的话自己要做到。除了家风，还有另一个引导着人们的——家训。与家风相对，我们家的家训也是“诚信做人，踏实做事”。做事要踏踏实实，按部就班的做。就像路要一步一步的走，饭要一口一口的吃。如果做事情光想着一步登天，那么干出的事也不会有太大的成就。相反，如果一个人能够脚踏实地的专心做眼前的每件事情，不好高骛远，必然能够有所成就。

总之，家庭是社会的重要组成部分，每个成功的人必定有好的家风和家训。而良好的家风家训需要每个家庭成员来共筑，只有严格筑好家风家训，我们才能少走弯路。

My summer vacation life, is a poem, a green leaf, a song...

除了紧张、充实的学习生活外，我还拥有轻松、愉快的假期生活。那丰富多采的内容，充实了我的人生，也为童稚的学生生涯增添了几分乐趣与悠然。

茶余饭后去散步是我每天的必修课。漫步在小区的花草旁，呼吸着清香的空气，与花鸟作伴，欣赏着玫瑰的浓郁，百合的高洁，晚饭花的奇特，还有玉兰的娇美，美人蕉的绚丽,我会轻轻地对自己说：“生活真是美的。”我用真诚感受身边的五颜六色，用热情欣赏周围的姹紫嫣红。我不由自主地从内心发出：“我，属于大自然!”

更多地，我会一头扎进书的海洋，呼吸着书店、图书馆特有的那种书香的气味，感受漫步书海的乐趣。钻进历史的海洋，我会为秦始皇焚书坑儒的举动而激愤，为霸王别姬的悲惨而落泪，为诸葛亮“出师未捷身先死”扼腕叹息;漫步文学的殿堂，我渐渐体会到宝钗的无奈、黛玉的才华，体会到玛丽的倔强、科林的孱弱，体会到余秋雨的“晨雨初听”、钱钟书的“围城”……

我的暑假生活，是一首诗，一片绿叶，一支歌……

In the young generation, their lifestyle is different from the old

peoples. They like to stay up and join many night activities, then they wake up

very late. The new expression of brunch fits them so much, which means the

people to have a meal combining with breakfast and lunch. But their health is

under threat. Some young peoples stomach hurts and cant digest food well. In

order to keep healthy, we need to do some exercise and eat food regularly.

Whats more, the balanced diet is very important, as the saying that an apple a

day, keeps the doctor away, so we need to eat properly. The healthy lifestyle

makes us live happily.

春节，家家户户都张灯结彩，喜气洋洋。今年的春节，我过得特别有意思。直到今天，我还记忆犹新。

早晨，我们一家人忙开了。妈妈在大门上贴春联。映入我眼帘的是“日丽春常驻，人和福永留”。表示家庭祥和幸福。我呢，则帮妈妈贴“福”字，正要贴在门上。妈妈连忙阻止我，说道：“‘福’字应该倒贴，就是‘福’到的谐音，福光临我们家了。春节帖春联有喜庆、财气、吉祥之意。”我一听，赶紧把“福”字倒贴了。爸爸也在精心准备，挂起了一盏盏红灯笼。我想：这红灯笼难道不就代表着我们祖国的面貌在日新月异地变化着吗?

晚上，该是吃年夜饭的时候了。厨房里弥漫着香气;桌上摆放着丰盛的晚餐，使人看了，口水直流。桌中间有一条鱼，那就表示年年有余。客人们也都到了，欢欢喜喜地坐在桌子面前，津津有味地品尝着年夜饭。爸爸妈妈笑容满面地招呼着客人。全家人都其乐融融，屋子里充满了幸福的气氛。

吃完饭，外婆来分红包喽!我们家有一个小约定，小辈们拿到了奖状，不仅有红包，还会有其他奖励。今年，我被评上了“三好学生”。外婆就分给我一份红包，还送给我一只精美的文具盒。鼓励我在新的一年里，学习成绩更上一层楼。小孩子们都收到了红包，脸上露出了灿烂的笑容。

晚上八点整，我们全家准时打开了电视机，收看“春节联欢晚会”。那悠扬的歌声，使人陶醉其中;那优美的舞姿，使人赞不绝口;那滑稽有趣的笑话，使人捧腹大笑;那精彩的相声小品，使人开怀大笑……阵阵欢声笑语荡漾在客厅上空。

今年的春节，我过得十分有意义。我希望明年春节，我会过得更好!

总是很羡慕电视机里军人们站如松、坐如钟的飒爽英姿，以及那“流血流汗不流泪”的坚毅精神，想着自己是不是也能这样坚持呢？这不，机会终于来了。

一大早，我们学校七年级新生都换上了军训时穿的迷彩服，远远望去，就如同一幅巨大的油画。我当然也在其中，虽然表面看来，我十分淡定，但是只有我自己知道内心是如此的汹涌澎湃。我好像看到了一只独木船正在海面静静地向前航行，忽然，刮起了大风，巨大的海浪一个接着一个，如同成群的野兽，向独木船奔去。

想起哥哥说过的话，“你要小心点，我们军训的时候，教官十分严厉，动作稍微做得不到位，就要被罚！”想得正出神，老师便来带我们下楼参加典礼。我可以明显感觉到我的心脏里住着一头小鹿，它胡乱地撞着我的胸口，就差要跳出来了！

带领我们的是一位浓眉大眼的教官，眉宇间夹着一个深深的“川”字。他一脸严肃，在训练的时候，我没看到他脸上有过一丝笑容，眼睛睁得大大的，好似两个铜铃，怪可怕的。教官一本正经的模样使我胆怯起来，同时打起了十二万分的精神。

教官在教我们每一个动作前都会做一遍给我们看，那炯炯有神的眼睛，那干脆利落的动作，那挺拔如松的站姿，我能想到的只有一个字，那就是——帅！

刚开始我们做的动作一点儿都不整齐，经过教官一次又一次的纠正，我们一次又一次的努力，总算能像教官一样——站如杨树，蹲如雕塑。一个个挺拔的身影，洪亮的口号声久久回荡在篮球场上，这分明就是一个个军人在接受着人民的检阅啊！

一天的训练就在这热烈的气氛中结束了，每个人的脸上虽然都显得有些疲倦，但从一双双明亮的眼睛中，分明可以看出那巨大的成就感——那种无法言语的感觉！

At noon on Saturday at home I play gyro. Huang bo wen for a while come to my house to play, just come in, mum asked "who are you?" I said, "he is a yellow. He lived in 25, three units, on the fourth floor, 405. He was in grade six. He is my best friend. Have food we eat together, had a book together, have we play together, playing a holiday is not I find him, is he looking for me." Mother said, "oh, go and play!" Then he and I play with the gyro.

I have too many words to say to you, my friend, but even if there is a thousand words to tell you how much I miss you? Of course not. Our destiny will not be the same, will we meet again in the long road? Maybe not, but in my mind, I cant forget everything about you, I believe, and you too.

Dear friend, I sincerely wish you happiness.

我的名字是大明。我去叔叔家过春节。今天早晨，我和我的朋友玩游戏。我想要放鞭炮，但是晓玲组织了我。我说：“过节了，怎么还不让放鞭炮?”晓玲说：“你看看宣传画就知道了。”宣传画上描绘了放鞭炮灰带来的危害,例如会引起火灾、造成环境污染、炸伤人。看完宣传画后，我想：是应该禁止放鞭炮。

My name is DaMing.I go to my uncles to enjoy the Spring Festival.This morning,my friend and I played games.I wanted to set off fireworks,but XiaoLing stopped me.I wondered why cant I set off fireworks when festivals.XiaoLing asked me to have a look at the picture posters.The picture descrided that setting off fireworks will cause dameges,such as causing fires,making environment pollution and injuring others.After reading the picture posters I think:It is nesserary to be forbidden setting off fireworks.

说起幸福，我们家幸福的事还真不少。这不，我的父母辛苦了一年，个个被评为单位的先进工作者，不仅涨了工资，更发了奖金。

妈妈把早就准备好的羽绒服拿了出来，要奶奶穿上，奶奶穿上妈妈买的新羽绒服更精神了。奶奶眼里闪烁着的那份幸福，似孩子般的不能掩饰……

Dear Kim:

I feel so happy to hear that you are interested in the Chinese spring festival, which is one most important symbol of Chinese culture. With my great honor, I am here sharing my knowledge about it with you.

The spring festival, also called Chinese New Year, enjoys a long history of over 4,000 years. Unlike other festivals, the Spring festival is a period of time, rather than a single day. It starts from the first day of a new year and ends on January 15th, , of course in the Chinese lunar calendar. But people usually start to celebrate the Spring Festival on the day before the New Years Day, which is called "New Years Eve", when all members of a family get together, have a big meal together(called Nian Ye Fan in Chinese) and watch the Spring Festival gala, indulged in the especially warm and sweet atmosphere of reunion.

There are a variety of activities during the Spring festival, among which at least three deserve your special attention. First, when the new years first bell rings out the old year and rings in the new, adults and children get out of the houses and light crackers and fireworks, which decorates the sky into a colorful and magnificent stage.

Then, on the morning of the New Years Day, people get up very early to stick couplets, on which all good wished are presented. Meanwhile, the red color of the couplets adds much to the joy of the splendid festival.

In addition, we have to visit our relatives from door to door as of the first day of the Spring Festival until the Lantern Festival, which is supposed to be a conclusion of the whole Spring Festival.

Kim, the short letter here surely fails me to give you a complete account of our Spring Festival. I sincerely hope, if possible, that you can come here in China to have a real experience about it.

Best wishes!

Yours,

Li Hua

你好!

听说你对中国的春节很感兴趣，我很高兴。春节是中国文化中最重要的一个象征。这里，我很荣幸地与你分享一些我对春节所了解的知识。

春节，也叫作中国新年，有着超过4000多年的历史。与其他的节日不同，春节是一个时间段，而不是指单独某一天。它是从一月的第一天一直到十五日，当然是按照中国的农历。但是人们通常都从大年初一前一天就开始庆祝春节，这一天也叫除夕，一大家人会团聚起来，吃个大餐(我们中国人管它叫年夜饭)，看春晚，沉浸在家人团聚的特殊温馨的氛围之中。

春节里有很多的活动，其中至少有三样事情值得你关注。首先，当新年的第一次钟声响起，一个辞旧迎新的时刻到来了，大人和小孩都会到室外去放鞭炮，放烟花，把整个天空装扮成了一个五彩缤纷的大舞台。

然后，在大年初一的早上，人们都很早起来贴春联。春联上写满了吉祥的话语。同时，春联的红色也为这个绚丽的节日增添了不少的欢乐。

还有，从年初一开始我们都要挨家挨户去拜访亲戚，一直到元宵节。元宵节的到来就意味着春节的结束。

金，短短的信件中我没法向你很详尽地描述好我们的春节。如果可能的话，我真心希望你能来中国好好的体验一下。

致敬

"Clicks" firecrackers on New Years eve, the street, the sky flashing dazzling spark, every household lights, the window of golden yellow, yellow-green, in combustion and off gradually, flowers, seemed to open the TV at the same time, in the play the wonderful show.

I stood on the sixth floor of the balcony, look, the New Years eve the night sky is bright, many colorful fireworks shining in the sky, sometimes like to live the day cage with, often is exploded here, before falling again raised a few, and then blasted, rise again... Some fireworks at lightning speed, ten 10 to move in the air, pour down, as if the next beautiful meteor shower, is like a big waterfall, also really a little "plunges three thousand feet" feeling! My mood is particularly bright and clear, this is "firecracker sound bowed out, every family to meet the New Year".

我喜欢的节日有很多，有清明节、有端午节、有儿童节、有中秋节，但我最喜欢的就是春节了。

除夕夜，街上“劈劈啪啪”的鞭炮声接连不断，空中闪烁着耀眼的火花，家家户户灯火通明，金黄色、黄绿色的窗户，在忽明忽暗、忽燃忽灭花中，好象同时打开的电视机，在播放精彩的节目。

我站在六楼的阳台上，放眼望去，除夕夜晚的天空格外亮，许多色彩缤纷的烟花在天空中闪亮着，有的时候好像还要把天笼照住似的，常常是这里炸开了，还没等落下就又升起了几个，然后再炸开、再升起……有的烟花以闪电般的速度，十个十个的往上蹿，在空中炸开，倾泻而下，好像在下一场美丽的流星雨，又好似一条大瀑布，还真有点“飞流直下三千尺”的感觉呢!我的心情格外爽朗，这真是“爆竹声声辞旧岁，家家户户迎新春”。

My hometown is in the northeast, where there is a lake called "jingbo.

In the spring, the willows of the jingbo drew new yaren, bamboo shoots also emerge from the ground. The animals are awake: frog crawling around, waiting for the arrival of the summer; The little squirrel jump around, to look for food to the...

Summer, jingbo is full of vitality. Round the lake decorated with all kinds of small stone, stone is covered by green moss. The green of little noise in the grass, the quietly open a flower, for these made up a simple wreath. Water is so clear, can see the lake sand. There are fish in the water. May be it is because there are fish, so drew green duck. Each duck holding the bottom jump into the water, the frog also called on the lotus leaf.

Autumn has come, the maple leaves fall. Leaves fall around the perimeter of the lake, like only butterflies. The weather gradually turned cold. Frogs, turtles, green ducks are returned to the cave.

Finally look forward to in the winter! Its snowing. A gust of wind blowing, diffuse to a layer of mist on the horizon. Heavy fog, not as long as its snowing. After a while, just like white snow began to fall. First and falls, then gradually expand, flying, the earth covered with a layer of "silver". A piece of white between heaven and earth.

Ah! These are beautiful! I love these!

我的家乡在东北，那里有一个湖叫“镜泊湖”。

春天，镜泊湖旁的柳树抽出新芽儿了，竹笋也从地里钻出来了。动物们都苏醒了：青蛙爬来爬去，等待夏天的到来;小松鼠跳来跳去，去找吃的去了……

夏天，镜泊湖充满生机。湖的四周镶嵌着各种各样的小石头，石头上还覆盖着嫩绿的青苔。那绿的没有一点儿杂色的草，那悄悄开放着的花朵，给镜泊湖编了个朴素的花环。水是那样清，清的能看见湖底的沙粒。水里还有鱼。可能正是因为有鱼，所以引来了绿毛鸭。一只只鸭子抱着屁股往水里跳，青蛙也在荷叶上叫个不停。

秋天来了，枫树掉叶子了。叶子掉在湖的四周，就像一只只蝴蝶。天气逐渐变冷了。青蛙，乌龟，绿毛鸭都回山洞去了。

终于盼到冬天了!下雪了。一阵风吹来，从地平线上漫来一层轻雾。雾重起来，没有多久就下雪了。过了一会儿，就下起了白花般的雪。先是零零落落，后来逐渐扩大，横飞过来，给大地披上了一层“银装”。天地间一片洁白。

啊!镜泊湖真美!我爱镜泊湖!
