I,m so glad to receive your letter, in which you wanted to know about the

Dragon Boat Festival in China.

I feel honored to tell you about it. Celebrated on May 5th in the lunar

calendar, it is a folk festival having a history of more than two thousand

years. Also, it is one of the most important festivals in China.

As for the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival, there are many beautiful

legends, of which the story about Qu Yuan is most widely accepted. Qu Yuan, a

Chinese poet who loved his country deeply, drowned himself in the Miluo River

after his country’s being defeated. To honor him, people in China hold various

activities every year, including eating zongzi and dragon boat racing.

I hope you can come to China to enjoy it for yourself.

Thanksgiving Day falls on the fourth Thursday of November every year. It is

the most truly American of the national Holidays in the United States. It is a

time for sharing. In the United States, it is their tradition that family

members get together for a reunion to have a traditional big dinner. On the

dinner table, people will find apples, oranges, chestnuts, walnuts and grapes.

There will be plum pudding, mince pie, other varieties of food and cranberry

juice and squash. The best and most attractive among them are roast turkey and

pumpkin pie. Although it is the traditional festival of America, it reminds us

of appreciation.

Recently, I saw a piece of news on the newspaper. This news has a picture

matched. The picture shows that a young lady sitting on the seat of a bus. But

it is strange that an old lady sits on the leg of the young lady, which there

are still many empty seats on the bus. I am totally moved after reading this

news. The old lady is the mother of the young lady. The old lady had some

problem with her back and leg that she couldn’t sit independently. And her

daughter does not want to see her mother stand on the bus in such an old lady,

so I see situation on the picture. Having read this, my eyes become wet. When we

are young, our mother will often carry us if there is any inconvenient, but when

our mother gets old, we seldom carry her.

The ancients had a saying: dripping, the smallest favor. In this world,

there are many people who grace to us. Our parents are the two people who give

us most grace. When we grow up, we need to say our thanks to them. As far as I

am concerned, thanks the people do good to us, especially our parents should be

the theme of our Chinese Thanksgiving Day.

In daily life we are often faced with choices.More often than not,we have

to make cardinal decisions indepentently.This moment is very important for

everyone to go through.

In order to make a decision that we will not regret,we should bear these

two principles in mind:thinking before acting,and never missing any

opportunities that arise.On one hand,we should have an apparent,objective

judgment about ourselves while maintaining a clear idea about the world around

us.On the other hand,we should also think about opportunity.Many people may not

quite agree with this and think that opportunity is so rare that only the

luckiest people come across it.However,opportunity is open to everyone and one

should make good use of it when confronted with it.One should take advantage of

it just like the proverb states:“Opportunities are only from the prepared

minds.”

So when one is faced with choices the next time,remember that using the

mind and taking advantage of good opportunities will pave the way to

success.

I’m going to have a busy weekend! On Saturday, I’m going visit my friends

Of course, on the day of Dragon Boat Festival, mothers wear five silk threads to their children, and five silk threads are full of their mothers yearning for their children, hoping that their children will live to the age of 100. My mother gave me the five thread long thread.

In the Dragon Boat Festival, people eat dumplings, in memory of Qu Yuan. More than two thousand years ago, in the early May, five, people stood on the Miluo River and threw food into the river so as not to let the fish and shrimp and other underwater animals eat Qu Yuans body.

妈妈一入口，皱了一下眉头，随后又哭了，我着急了说：“妈妈，是不是我做的菜难吃呀，妈妈你别哭，对不起”妈妈说：“很好吃，妈妈这是感动的，开心的哭。”我放下心了，也吃了起来菜刚一入嘴，我就吐了出来说：“这哪是人吃的呀。有的太甜，有的太咸”妈妈说：“这顿菜是我这辈子吃的最香的一顿菜了”我抱住妈妈说：“妈妈，以后不管发生了什么，我依然还是爱着你。”

妈妈的怀抱是我们避风的港湾，有妈的地方才有家，我祝全天下的妈妈节日快乐!

Every year, my school holds sports meeting in about October, I am very

can be sure who is the champion until the last minute. Sports meeting bring me

so many beautiful memories.

As an outgoing junior school student, I have many interests, such as

watching movies, reading books, searching the Internet, playing computer games,

attending various sports. In the spare time, the one thing I like most is

watching movies, because it’s very convenient and interesting. Usually, movies

tell wonderful stories to us. They are humorous, sad, happy, intricate or

thought-provoking. You can get many from a good movie. Besides, my favorite

sport is basketball. Every time after I play basketball, I feel relaxed. I focus

on the game and I don’t let anything to influence on me. It’s really a wonderful

feeling.

It is well-known that fruit is good for our health and we should have more.

Do you really understand what benefit it brings to us? Let me show you some.

First of all, fruit is good for our skin. Fruit has rich trace elements and

vitamin, which can nourish the skin. The makeup is hard to reach its effect.

Besides, some fruit have the effect of delaying senescence for the elements

their contain. So, eating more fruit can make skin better and look more

beautiful.

Secondly, fruit is good for our health. It helps to prevent and treat

disease. Fruit is helpful to treat cardiovascular disease, dental ulcer and so

on. The people who eat fruit often have less risk to get those diseases.

Last, fruit is delicious. Different fruit have different tastes. Many

happy. I often eat apple, pear, banana, litchi and so on. I like them.

some in our daily life, but we should not eat excessively.

October 1st is the national day of our country, which is a public holiday

for the whole country. It’s an important day that marks the beginning of PRC. On

that day, there are plenty of celebrations holding throughout the country, from

the central government to the general people. And public places, including big

squares, parks are decorated in festive theme. In recent years, the national

holiday means the golden week as well, which is a short holiday that all people

expect to. With the improvement of living standards, people have more money and

desire to travel and the golden week is a good chance for them. Besides, for

those people who would not go out, it’s a good time to have a good rest as well.

Therefore, the national day means a lot to the Chinese.

I did very bad in the mid-term exams two weeks ago. After that, my life

seemed to be so dark and hard. My parents felt disappointed to me, and they

always told me to study during my free time. I couldnt watch TV for more than

half an hour and I couldnt search the Internet or play games. Besides, I feel

depressed and I almost lost my heart. But yesterday, my friend came to see me.

She knew I was not happy. She encouaged me that nothing is impossible. If I

could try hard from now on, I would do good in my study. Where there is a will,

there is a way. Only confidence and hardwork can pull me out from failure. If I

want to be good as before, I have to let this failure go and restart again.

Darfur once said that, “The future of illiteracy is no longer illiterate

people, but did not learn how to learn.” In the future world, everyone has to

face the contemporary issue that learn to learn, which is the key to the

lifelong learning as well as the permit to the era of knowledge economy.

Firstly, having an aim is the premise of learn to learn. The goal is the

direction of learning, only when you set up a goal can you have motivation.

Secondly, autonomic learning is the foundation of learning. Study is a lifelong

task. When we stay in school, we have teachers teaching. But after we graduate,

we have to learning independently, and atonomic learning seems particularly

important. Thirdly, scientific learning methods are the keys to learning, which

conductive to cultivate and improve a variety of learning abilities so as to

improve learning efficiency. Finally, make plans for your learning.

Every day, we can see the figures of the volunteers. Actually, they have

formed a kind of scenery of the city. Some people hold that volunteering is

merely a waste of time, because the volunteers have no gains with pains.

However, I believe that doing voluntary is quite rewarding.

In the first place, we can put into practice what we have learnt before,

for instance, when we were asked by a foreigner about the way to some place, we

could practice our oral foreign language, it’s definitely a good opportunity to

express ourselves in a foreign language correctly and clearly.

In the second place, we could make a lot of new friends while we are

volunteering As a proverb says, “At home one relies on one’s parents and outside

on one’s friends”, so it is never a bad thing to have lots of friends.

Finally, helping others is a good way to make you feel happy and when you

help others solve a problem successful, you will feel fulfillment. In this

sense, we reap a bountiful spiritual harvest by doing voluntary work.

On the whole, we can benefit a lot by engaging ourselves in the voluntary

work. Therefore, I suggest those that have abundant spare time registering as

volunteers for the welfare for the public.

Today, as the development of the medical, people can slow down their aging. As for the celebrities, they use the developed technology to keep young, seeing their unchangeable faces in the screen for so many years, the audience also want to imitate the celebrity, they believe that by using the developed technology, they can keep young all the time. While in my opinion, the way to keep young is to hold a young heart, some people look young outside, but in their hearts, they are old enough and refuse to keep pace with the time. While for another group, even they have wrinkles, they are curious about all the things and are willing to change. My grandpa is old, but he knows all the fashionable things, sometimes I have to ask him for the new things. The young heart is the way to keep young forever.

今天，随着医疗的发展，人们能够延缓衰老。对于名人来讲，他们使用高科技来保持年轻，看到他们常年在屏幕上保持不变的容颜，观众也想要模仿名人，他们相信通过使用高科技就能一直保持年轻。然而在我看来，保持年轻的方法就是拥有一颗年轻的心，一些人表面看起来年轻，但是在他们的心里，他们足够的老，并且拒绝去与时俱进。对于另外一些人来讲，虽然他们有皱纹，但是他们对一切都保持好奇，并且愿意去改变。我的爷爷年纪大，但是他对一切时尚的东西都了如指掌，有时候我不得不问他关于新的事物。年轻的心是永葆青春的方法。
