A lunar New Year, no doubt, is sound, taste and township.

A New Years eve firecrackers. Melody in the New Year, fireworks is low and grand drums, heavy yet explosive, accompanied by a large umbrella of scattering flowers, jinlong fall and arc of the rainbow, here every corner of the flower, a pair of, a group of cheng fang, a piece, a world, in a sudden the incomparable luster. And on the square table, and celebrate the applause, light spirit is ringing, can not help but think of "harps friend" -- it is natural to performance, the smile of gentle feeling let everyone around without his joy. Then a sound clear gong, it is in the middle of the night the cheer of the New Year, is not so short but lingering sound waves, times, stretches, like a stream, seeped into next year. In the end, a string of bells sound, it so mysterious, as if the passage of time, is at the end of the sea and the nien beast roar.

Through every form, and to have bouts of aroma. Like bacon that hard sweet, like the mutton soup hot sweet, like the natural aroma of coarse grains like steamed bread fresh incense, sweet like a sausage chewy, like dumplings a pack of sweet juice, like nuts, crisp sweet, like good old 994 stuffed sweet ChunChun... The fragrance, as they themselves. A wisp of fragrance, flavor, a dish, a table, a handful of happiness. I like dumplings, white white fat, quietly lying on the soup. It successfully, that sweet thick sesame paste, now a love heart.

JianJu the most popular cartoon "bears in the New Years day" in a situation: even if a lumberjack, also know that mothers dumplings, dads wine, are looking forward to the calendar page, end the arrival of the New Years eve. Whether its cold rime, shaking winter bamboo shoot, a speeding train, shimmering bright lights... Township, there is only one, let the wanderer to gallop tirelessly.

But you have such a scene: in the mobile phone clicking, hands of quick-frozen dumplings immodesty slide to the ground, fell to pieces, like a boom ray reminds you, want to travel to Hong Kong this year Spring Festival. So, the sound? Taste? Township?

一个春节，无疑便在于声、味、乡。

爆竹声中一岁除。过年的曲谱中，烟花是低沉而隆重的大鼓，重重的一声声爆响，伴随着大伞的散花、金龙的出落和弧形的彩虹，在这儿的每个角落一朵、一双、一群、一片、一世界地盛放，在瞬间迸发出无与伦比的光彩。八仙桌上的谈笑，与庆祝的掌声，轻灵清脆，不禁联想到“琴瑟友之”——它自然是尽情的琴声了，笑的柔和让周围的每个人都情不自己地欢欣起来。然后是一声清亮的锣响，它就是午夜时分新年的那一阵欢呼，虽短，但余音袅袅，不绝如缕，一直绵延着，就如一条溪，汩汩地流向明年。最终，有一串编钟声，它那么神秘，好像是时间的流逝，是沧海尽头年兽的咆哮。

走过每一个门洞，都有一阵阵的香飘来。像是腊肉那硬硬的香，像是羊肉汤那热乎乎的香，像是粗粮天然的香，像是馒头新鲜出炉的香，像是香肠有嚼劲的香，像是饺子一包汁的香，像是坚果干脆的香，像是陈年佳994酿醇醇的香……这香味，就如它们本身。一缕香，一丝味，一盘菜，一桌人，一捧幸福。我最喜欢汤圆，白白胖胖，安静地躺在汤里。它圆满的外表下，那甜稠的芝麻馅，宛然一颗爱心。

简举最红的动画片《熊出没之过年》中的一情景：就算一个伐木工，也懂得，妈妈的饺子，爸爸的酒，都是期待着日历的那一页，岁末除夕的到来。不管是冰冷的雾淞，晃动的冬笋，飞驰的火车，灿亮的灯光……乡，只有一个，让游子不倦地飞奔。

但是你的身边有这样的场面吗：在手机的点击声中，手里的速冻汤圆不慎滑落在地，跌得粉碎，像轰雷般提醒了你，今年春节要去香港旅游。如是这样，声呢?味呢?乡呢?

There is nothing complicated about eating a proper diet. For good health,

eat a variety of foods. Do not eat the same foods day after day! Foods should be

selected everyday from each of basic four. They are the four groups of food

essential to proper nutrition: the milk group, meat group, vegetable-fruit

group, and bread- cereal group, Your body will then be supplied with all the

nutrients it requires; they are water, minerals, carbohydrate, fats and oils,

proteins, and vitamins. A persons diet is determined by his attitudes, likes

and dislikes. If you eat foods from each of the basic four groups each day, you

will have a balanced diet.

人为什么要有梦想?因为梦想是故事的开始，我相信每个人都有一个梦想。

Why have a dream? Because the dream is the beginning of the story, I believe that everyone has a dream.

我的梦想是当一个顶级的厨师到世界各地比赛厨艺。第一、当了厨师以后也不用挨饿，可以自己煮东西吃。第二、我可以把我做的爱心食物送给大家吃，第三、退休后，可以自己开店赚钱，最重要的目的还是到世界各地比赛厨艺。

My dream is to be a top chef to the rest of the world match. First, when the chef will never be hungry, you can eat anything. Second, I can put my love of food do you eat, third, after retirement, you can sell to make money, the most important purpose is to race around the world.

至于该如何一步步实现我的梦想呢?第一、我要先培养味蕾，第二、也要练一下煮菜技巧，第三、创造一道属于自己的菜。曾经听过：厨师是饿不死的，如果我当了一位厨师，是件很幸福的事，又可以开店当老板，达成我今生这个伟大的愿望

As for how to step by step to realize my dream? First, I want to cultivate the taste buds, second, also want to practice my cooking skills, third, create a belongs to own. Once heard: the chef is hungry, if I became a chef, is a very happy thing, but also can set up shop when the boss, I have reached this great desire

Since its rise, the Internet has been playing a more and more important

role in our daily life. It brings tremendous convenience and efficiency to our

lives. Online shopping is also a new rising thing brought by the Internet. Since

its increasing developing speed, some people think that online shopping will

replace traditional shopping. However, as far as I am concerned, it wont happen

in a short time.

Although online shopping is really very convenient, there are still some

strong points of traditional shopping which cannot be replaced by online

shopping. Firstly, online shopping lacks the intuitional impression of goods.

Sometimes the photos offered by the sellers are beautified with softwares, and

you will be disappointed to find the actual item is far from your expectation.

Secondly, returning goods in online shopping is quite troublesome, and sometimes

you only can achieve your goal at the cost of the payment of the postage by

yourself. Finally, there are too many fake products and cheats in online

shopping, and the quality of goods cannot be guaranteed as those in traditional

shops.

According to the points above, online shopping still needs some

improvements to totally replace the functions of traditional shopping. However,

the potential of online business is so huge that it will certainly take a great

share in the trade market.

Because mother said that the day can go to sleep in the morning, because

even fell asleep will also be new firecrackers wake.

On New Years eve, in addition to being able to eat a lot of delicious

things, can also receive a lot of red envelopes, you can also watch TV for a

long long time, really is so happy.

A red envelope is New Years money, since ancient times, elders will send

children lucky money on New Years eve, seems to be a meaning of exorcism

disaster, mother said to put "lucky money" in under the pillow, pillow to sleep

on it. I really do as this way, because it is very new.

I also looked at the Spring Festival gala, the deepest memory is the

"hello, I am leave." "Why? Why is this?" Whenever I say this, mom and dad

laughed, because I copy too like said.

Oh, do you think this boy is really ill-looking? He is my classmate in school. His name is Dai Shunxin. Do you think his face just likes a piece of square and white paper? He looks very poor. His hair is matted and brown. He has a crew cut. His eyes aren’t watery at all, and they’re fishlike. His nose is also ill-looking, and it’s a hooked nose. He has jagged teeth and his teeth aren’t very clean. He is bended, so he looks very short. He is ugly but he usually has a sunny smile. Though he is really ill-looking and everybody usually laughs at him, he studies very hard!

哦，你认为这个男孩是真的病了吗?他是我的同班同学在学校。他的名字是傣族顺鑫。你认为他的脸就像一张方形的和白色的纸吗?他看上去很穷。他的头发乱蓬蓬的，棕色的。他有一个平头。他的眼睛不流泪的话，他们的鱼。他的鼻子是病态的，和它的鹰钩鼻子。他有锯齿状的牙齿和牙齿不太干净。他是弯曲的，所以他看起来很短。他是丑陋的但他通常有一个灿烂的微笑。虽然他是真的病了，看，通常每个人都嘲笑他，他学习非常努力!

As is known to all， food is a priority for the mon people.Recently，

however， reports about food problems have often been seen in the newspapers，

showing that people have always been concerned about what they eat every day.

The reason for this problem is that some of the food producers are too fond of

making money， leading to the result that they use whatever will make the food

look good or taste better without considering the bad consequences。 This is not

normal because people just cannot live without eating anything.

So we should take all the measures necessary to forbid the food producers

to make food that is not safe enough. Laws should be strengthened and the

government should have more control over these producers。 Only when people are

no longer worried about whether their food is safe or not can they enjoy a

better life.

what s your plan for dragon boat festival?

As a chinese, I was really ashamed of having a little knowledge of dragon boat festival. Perhaps I was born in northern city, though my city is nearby sea, it has been built a U port which I can only see cargo ships and can t see the sweeping ocean. So I have never see the dragon boat contest since I was born. So the dragon boat festival is just a holiday for eating Zong Zi . My mother made Zong Zi when I was a child. Because there was no supermarket, we couldn t buy finished product from market. However, now, we can buy anything in supermarket, so my mother didn t make them anymore. The boat festival began to fade out my mind.

In reality, young people began to have a bug to celebrate foreign festivals, such as Christams, Saint Valentine s day, April Fool s Day, some people also celebrate Easter in church. Talk about Dragon boat festival, it s the same as some foreign conventional festivals, such as Witch s Day in Czech. People burned the witch s puppet so as to welcome spring. Some people are willing to celebrate foreign festivals because they like alien culture. And vice versa, foreigners who like China also concern about Chinese traditional culture.

After new holiday regulation, we have three holidays during the dragon boat festival. So many people will choose this time to travel. People who lived in Xiamen are able to visit Xiapu or Wu Yi mountain, these tourist attractions are in Fujian province,which is suit a short tirp. but I d like to stay at home for my decorate painting. I decide to draw two canvases about Christmas, it s really a big project. Then I ll hang them on the new house wall. I must start it now, or I can t finish them before Christmas eve. But I preceive it s a little difficult to draw them in such a hot season.

My mother is a woman of the old school. She is too conservative to keep up

with the times. However, she is goodnatured and treats others sincerely. For

this reason, all her neighbors are only too glad (pleased) to make friends with

her.

They consider her a model woman.She is a typical housewife. She keeps the

(her) house neat and clean and looks after us with extreme care . She often says

to us, “You cannot study too hard.”

People always attach great importance on the soul, as the saying that beautiful soul overweighs everything, so in the movie, the everlasting theme is that an ugly girl wins the true love at last. Recently, a hot topic of discussing whether the girls’ outlook is important, the fact is that people reach their agreement that outlook really matters, if a person looks terrible, no one will like to make friends with him, let alone to know about him. In my opinion, beautiful soul is of great importance, but if people don’t make themselves look comfortable outside, no one wants to know his inside. We need to clear ourselves, it doesn’t mean we must make up, we should make ourselves look comfortable and confident, we should dress the tidy clothes and make our hair in order. People say outlook is not important, but it doesn’t mean we give up our outlook and let it look terrible.

人们总是赋予心灵很大的重要性，正如有句话说美丽的心灵胜过一切，因此在电影里，永恒的主题是一位长相难看的女孩最终赢得真爱。最近，关于讨论女孩的外表是否重要成为了热门话题，事实上，人们一致认为外表很重要，如果一个人看起来很糟糕，没有人会喜欢和他交朋友，更不用说去了解他。在我看来，美丽的心灵很重要，但是如果人们没有让自己的外表看起来舒服，没有人会想要了解他的内心。我们需要让自己看起来干净，这不意味着我们必须要化妆，我们应该让自己看起来舒服和自信，应该穿着整齐，发型不乱。人们说外表不重要，但是不意味着我们放弃外表，让自己看起来糟糕。

Ah! Christmas morning! Children like to wake up early while its still dark and sneak into the living room to check the presents----find any with their name on it, shake them to guess whats inside, and then maybe theyll go back to bed and pretend they are still asleep when their parents come to wake them with a "Merry Christmas!"

But almost no one I know gets completely dressed or eats a regular breakfast first thing Christmas morning. They just put on a robe or wear their pajamas and go to see whats under the Christmas tree. Some Christian families have a tradition of reading the Bible story of Jesus birth. Maybe its to remind the children that Christmas is Jesus birthday.

Someone will begin to take the presents out from under the tree, see whose name is on the package, and then pass them around. Some families wait until all the presents have been given out before opening any of them, while others open each one as it comes to them. There are many "thank you" to the ones who gave the gifts, new clothes are tried on to see if they fit, and of course the most interesting toys will immediately be played with.

Usually among the Christmas gifts will be some especially delicious candy or cake or cookies which everyone tastes. These sweet things may be the only breakfast many people eat Christmas morning. After the gifts have been opened, the room will be tidied up except where the children are playing with their toys. Everyone will wash and get dressed for the day.

Some people may go to a Christmas morning church service around ten oclock if their church didnt have one on Christmas Eve. But most people will just watch TV. Well, most men will. The children may play outside or inside with their new toys, but the mothers will be in the kitchen preparing Christmas Dinner.

啊!圣诞节的早晨!孩子们喜欢早起,它仍然是黑暗和溜进客厅去检查礼物——找到任何与他们的名字,动摇他们猜里面有什么,然后他们可能会回到床上,假装他们是还在睡觉当他们的父母叫他们“圣诞快乐!”

但是我几乎没有人知道会完全打扮或吃普通的早餐圣诞节早晨的第一件事。他们只是穿上长袍或穿睡衣去看圣诞树下会有什么。一些基督教家庭的传统阅读圣经耶稣诞生的故事。也许是提醒孩子们,圣诞节是耶稣的生日。

有人会开始把礼物从树下,看到包装上是谁的名字,然后通过周围。一些家庭等到已经给所有的礼物之前打开其中任何一个,而其他人打开每一个涉及到他们。有很多“谢谢”的人给了礼物,新衣服试穿,看看是否合适,当然最有趣的玩具就会玩。

通常会在圣诞礼物一些特别美味的糖果、蛋糕或饼干,每个人的口味。这些甜食可能是唯一早餐很多人吃圣诞节的早晨。礼物被打开后,会整理房间除外孩子们玩他们的玩具。每个人都会洗干净,穿好衣服。

有些人可能会去一个圣诞节的早晨教堂服务大约10点钟如果他们的教会没有一个在圣诞前夜。但大多数人只会看电视。嗯,大多数人的意愿。孩子们可能会在外面玩或在他们的新玩具,但妈妈会在厨房里准备圣诞晚餐。

Speaking of patriotism, we can think of many patriotic heroes at once. Qu Yuan embraced a patriotic passion to vote in the MI Luo river, which became a thousand ancient songs; Yue Fei backed the thorns of "faithful to the country", and let the world praise them; Wen Tianxiang "lament the lonely ocean in the lonely ocean" and "leave the heart to take the heart of the Qing Dynasty"; Liu Hulans knife before the knife is not low, and Huangs eye is not afraid in front of the eye of the gun. They stand up in front of the achievements, major issues issues of right and wrong, shaking heaven and Earth Spirit of patriotism. Read their stories, often let us respect, admiration and reverence arise spontaneously.

Today, I read the "the most tender, the most pure patriotic heart" in "the Beidou star of the change of life", I deeply feel that the original spirit of patriotism can also be interpreted so. Yes, the 8 year old Xin Yues greatest wish before leaving the world was to stand in front of the Tiananmen to see the flag raising ceremony and listen to the national anthem. Who can say that this is not the most sacred love of patriotism? Are those 119 volunteers just willing to fulfill Xiao Xins wish? Is this not the most real expression of their patriotic feelings?

Patriotism is not necessarily vigorous. In fact, it is not far away. It is around us. Every time the flag raising ceremony, we stand upright and respectfully salute, this is patriotism; the teacher is a hard gardener, we respect the teacher, listen to their teaching, and let oneself become a useful talent for the future construction of the motherland, this is patriotism. We respect our elders and care for them. This is patriotism. Perhaps someone will be surprised: "are these simple behaviors patriotic?" Yes！ From the start, the simple side of things, we can be in front of major issues issues of right and wrong.

Students, let us down from the trivial little things, for the love of the motherland and contribute our utter innocence! Let the Beidou star guide us and illuminate our direction.

Almost everyone knows that water covers three-fourths of the earths

surface. Most of it， however， is in the oceans and is too salty to drink. Also，

some of it is frozen and cannot be used. In fact， less than one percent is left

for the use of people， animals and plant life. All through history men have

tried to build their homes near the sources of fresh water. Now fresh water is

becoming scarce， but more and more is needed because of the increasing number of

people in the world. Some industries also use large amounts of fresh water in

the production of things such as steel， petroleum， paper and rubber and so on.

Scientists estimate that the need for fresh water will have doubled by the year

2003. If they are correct， we must find new ways of saving it or producing it.

Some nations have worked on the problem and are already sharing their

information with others. They are trying to keep their rivers from becoming

polluted. Deep wells are also being dug， and rain water is being collected in

huge artificial lakes. In one way or another， they hope to provide enough water

to satisfy the needs of their people.

I have stayed in Shanghai alone for a week. It’s time for me to go to my real home—it is in Beijing. My parents are waiting for me. Although outside is no matter how beautiful, Beijing is still my home. In fact, there is many fresh things. Like red bayberries.

In the afternoon, I took a bus to Beijing. I was very unlucky that my mp3 was stolen. I was very sad. I didn’t know why thieves went to steal other’s things. Why don’t they hunt for a job? I don’t why! I hope there is no thief in our motherland.

May Day that day, I meet my brother and younger brother to play in the riverside wetland park. Im very glad to get off when Im singing while jumping down.

So many people in the park! Some fly a kite, some play in the water, and watch the scenery. My favorite is the reeds. The green reeds sway in the wind, as if to welcome us; There were a few wild duck in the reeds, swam to busy to catch fish and shrimp eat; Little dragonfly fly tired, fell on the reeds, pointed to rest!

The park is really fun, we had a happy May Day.

五一节这天，我相约哥哥和弟弟去滨河湿地公园玩。我非常高兴，下车时我是一边哼着歌一边蹦下去的。

公园里的人真多哪!有的放风筝、有的在水边玩耍、还有的观赏风景。我最喜欢的就是芦苇荡。绿油油的芦苇荡随风摇摆，好像是在欢迎我们的到来;还有几只野鸭在芦苇丛中游来游去，正忙着捉鱼虾吃;小蜻蜓飞累了，落在芦苇尖上休息呢!

公园里可真好玩，我们过了个快乐的五一节。

There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn to not judge

things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest，in turn，to go and look at a

pear tree that was a great distance away.

The first son went in the winter，the second in the spring，the third in

summer，and the youngest son in the fall.

When they had all gone and come back，he called them together to describe

what they had seen.

The first son said that the tree was ugly，bent，and twisted. The second son

said no - it was covered with green buds and full of promise.

The third son disagreed，he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so

sweet and looked so beautiful，it was the most graceful thing he had ever

seen.

The last son disagreed with all of them;he said it was ripe and drooping

with fruit，full of life and fulfillment.

The man then explained to his sons that they were all right，because they

had each seen but one season in the tree‘s life. He told them that you cannot

judge a tree，or a person，by only one season，and that the essence of who they are

- and the pleasure，joy，and love that come from that life - can only be measured

at the end，when all the seasons are up.

If you give up when it‘s winter，you will miss the promise of your

spring，the beauty of your summer，fulfillment of your fall. Don’t let the pain of

one season destroy the joy of all the rest.
