the mid-autumn or moon festival is one rich in poetic(诗意的) significance. ancient legends(古代的传说) that became interwoven with this festival‘s celebration further contribute to the warm regard in which it has always been held by the chinese people. according to the lunar calendar(农历), the seventh, eighth, and ninth months constitute the autumn season. mid-autumn festival falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, precisely in the middle of this season, when the heat of the summer has given way to cool autumn weather, marked by blue skies and gentle breezes. on this day the moon is at its greatest distance from the earth; at no other time is it so luminous. then, as the chinese say, “the moon is perfectly round.” in the villages the heavy work involved in the summer harvest has already been completed but the autumn harvest has not yet arrived.

the actual origins of the mid-autumn festival are still very unclear. the earliest records are from the time of the great han dynasty emperor wu di (156-87 b.c.), who initiated celebrations lasting three days, including banquets and “viewing the moon” evenings on the toad terrace. we know that people during the jin dynasty (265-420 a.d.) continued the custom of mid-autumn festival celebrations, and similar accounts have come down to us from the time of the tang dynasty. during the ming dynasty (1368-1644) houses and gardens were decorated with numerous lanterns and the sound of gongs and drums filled the air.(qiewo.com)

moon cakes came on sale shortly before festival time. in the past, one could get some cakes shaped like pagodas, others like a horse and rider, fish or animals. still others were decorated with the images of rabbits, flowers, or goddesses. there were a myriad of different fillings available: sugar, melon seeds, almonds, orange peel, sweetened cassia blossom, or bits of ham and preserved beef. the cakes are of the northern and southern styles, but the latter (also called guangdong-style) are the most popular and are available throughout the country.

the round shape of cakes just symbolizes not only the moon but also the unity of the family. therefore the mid-autumn festival is actually a day for family reunion.

“ABCDEFG……”自从我开始学英语起,我就特别厌烦英语,每当听到跟英语有关的字母或者是单词,就心想:“我是一名中国人,我为什么要学英语?英语好有什么用?我不一定会出国外,而且中国是我的家!”爱国之心是中国人必须拥有的品质精神,那时候,我总是觉得,我爱国,我不学英语!

可是,就是因为我从小有这样的心理,加上学校一个星期才两节英语课,我的英语只能勉强及格。自从转学后,我意识到了一些学英语的重要性,但是我并没有完全领悟,为什么中国人要学英语?我的语文和数学成绩在班上也算是优秀的,但是因为每次英语只有60到70分,庆幸的时候也就是80分左右,但是同学们的成绩,四分之一都是80分以上,虽然人数很少,就因为这样,我的英语成绩远远落后于一些同学,每次总分加起来,我顶多也是个第二名,这让我特别恼火,我没有去好好学习英语,而是更加厌烦英语,对于英语,只能用一个字形容——烦!

我尊敬老师,但是唯独不尊敬英语老师。这学期,新来了一名英语老师,我无所谓,心想:“教英语都不是中国人,都一样,一种人,我何必去理他。”我这种态度似乎被老师一眼就看出开了,老师从容地说:“同学们,说实话,你们喜不喜欢英语呢?”同学们哑口无言,“实话要实说,我知道你们都讨厌英语,成绩都是勉强提上来的,但只是以前你们死打死背单词,没掌握好方法。而且你们都有叛逆心理。”老师稍停了一会儿,说道:“也许你们以为学英语是觉得对不起国家、对不起父母,但是你们错了,你们知道吗?以前的英国统治了世界,即便是现在,连美国也比不上英国,如果你们想让中国的孩子不再学习英语,不是在这里叛逆,而是好好学习!要知道英语是主课,会加到总分里面,英语不好的同学,即便你语文数学再好,总分也是稍逊一筹……”

英语老师给我们讲了很多很多,基本上遇见某个同学不认真听讲、或者是不做作业,都会讲一些故事或者是道理,而我们就像听故事那样津津有味,这给我们很大的启示,我们也渐渐不厌烦英语了。

咦?这是什么?电饭煲吗?才不是呢!这是英语老师给我们带来的录音机~英语老师说:“你们不是一出生就会写字的,而是靠语言和交流才会说话写字的,英语也是一样,课前十分钟我让你们听一会儿磁带,但是,必须要安静,而且要去思考,我相信你们的成绩会挺高的,以为只要会说,渐渐的就会写。”老师还告诉我们:“听力占试卷很多分,所以要学好听力。而且,要把学习当作一种乐趣,而不是负担……”

英语老师从来不让我们默写单词,而是让我们背单词,一天背三到十个单词,我们觉得很轻松、也很快乐。老师要求我们快,还讲解了学好英语用速、效、雅三个要素(尊敬的老师对不起,我忘记了。)还讲解了这些代表什么,等等,很多很多,我们不知不觉喜欢上了英语。

英语老师很灵敏。一次出黑板报,由于一直没有画好灯笼,我就在英语课时不时地往黑板报看,可是我每次都是在老师转身写英语的时候才偷偷看的。“凌优!”英语老师突然的一声把我吓呆了,“你是不是再看后面还没有画好的灯笼?我宽恕了你好多次了……”我听着,脸羞红羞红的,不敢再回头看黑板报……

还有一次,我由于英语练习没错,老师就点名批评我,其实也不是批评,而是说读书不是为了父母和老师等道理。我很伤心,其实我不必去伤心,那只是英语而已,学不学好无所谓啊!但是我为什么这么伤心呢?

自从那几次教训起,我也不知道为什么,每当到英语课,我就异常的认真,动都不敢动一下,坐姿端正,读单词或句子的声音也是最大的,我也不知道为什么,也许是因为害怕英语老师,也许是因为为了弥补以前的过错。

英语带给我的那些烦恼都被清风带走了,每当英语课听到那些磁带里发出的录音时,我总是想:“总有一天,我们不用学英语,而是那些外国的小孩学好中国的语言。而在迎接那天到来的之前,为了老师对我们的期望,也为了自己,学好英语!“

英语老师,我真的很想感谢您!但是,每当我看您的时候,刚刚来的勇气却又沉了下去,或许您已经把我列入学生中的黑名单了,可您还是我心目中的好老师!

我也不知道为什么,我爱上了英语,每当同学们说一个词、一句话的时候,我就会想,这些言语用英语来说是怎样的呢?学英语可以让自己更自信!我爱英语,IloveEnglish!

或许是因为老师对我的批评,或许是因为老师的教学方法,或许是因为老师给我们讲的道理。但是,无论是怎样,这都是来自于我的英语老师,他不仅仅传授于我、于我们知识,还有许许多多对我们人生很大帮助的启示。

英语是我曾经最讨厌的东西,但是我把他们搞混了,我讨厌英语而不是老师。而现在却因为我的英语老师喜欢上了英语。英语和老师两者皆不同,一个是……,还有ing也是……哎呀!又这样了!英语你完全进入我的世界了!

英语不是老师,老师不是英语。英语是给我们学习的,老师是来给我们教英语的,因为有一位有方法,又特别灵敏的老师,使我们再一次对英语有了重新的认识。

A Polluted Environment

Environmental pollution is a serious social problem. It poses a terrible threat to men’s health.

The atmosphere is filthy. The air is thick with dust and burnt oil. Dark smokes are being emitted from chimneys, and choking fumes are being

released from numerous vehicles. Stay a little while in a big city, then wipe your forehead with your handkerchief, it is black. Hang out your

washing on the line to dry, you will have to wash again. Garbage is left to accumulate in unsanitary heaps that attract flies and give off bad smell.

Nor is the pollution confined to air and land. Large quantity of sewage and chemical waste are dumped daily into rivers, lakes and the sea,

which kills millions of fish. Noises coming from honking cars, rumbling machines and broadcasting loudspeakers may make a person nervous and

irritable, even drive him crazy.

Environmental pollution is responsible for many diseases that are disabling, or bringing death to human beings.

In short, let’s take good care of our mother globe, not only for the well-being of ourselves, but also for that of our future generations.

Unlike Martin Luther King’s, my dreams are fair and plain, and there are

many of them. I have a dream from the first time I sit in a car—I want to

drive.

Driving is like running without foot, racing without strength. It’s the

most meaningful way to meet human being’s desire of “faster”. When driving, I

have to put all my spirit to. Operating a car at ease will cost years of

experience.

Driving will take me to my wanting destination, no matter it rains or snows

or winds. I never am afraid of shoes wet, umbrella broken or ears frozen. A car

is rather like a moving house, which protects me completely and helps me rush

directly to the aim hanging ahead. That suits my nature perfectly: love to take

risks conservatively. A smooth ride in a good car is an enjoyable satisfaction.

Seeing rows of trees moving backward rapidly, a feeling of stepping forward will

fill fully in my mind. With music hovering, breeze blowing, my soul flies in the

air.

I was always sick when took a ride of a car, especially when I was young.

Father told me that a driver would never have carsick. That may be one of the

important reasons for me to desire driving.

This summer I am going to learn driving and get my car license. The dream

with all my heart will follow the promise it had made.

Last Qingming Festival,I return home to worship my grandfather.Qingming Festival is a folk Festival.In the past,In the past, the Qingming Festival was called "Arbor Day". But Today, Chinese visit their family graves to tend to any underbrush that has grown. Weeds are pulled, and dirt swept away, and the family will set out offerings of food and spirit money. Unlike the sacrifices at a familys home altar, the offerings at the tomb usually consist of dry, bland food. One theory is that since any number of ghosts rome around a grave area, the less appealing food will be consumed by the ancestors, and not be plundered by strangers.

With the passing of time, this celebration of life became a day to the honor past ancestors. Following folk religion, the Chinese believed that the spirits of deceased ancestors looked after the family. Sacrifices of food and spirit money could keep them happy, and the family would prosper through good harvests and more children.
