On May 12, 2008, there was an earthquake happened in Wenchuan, Sichuan

province. More than 69000 people had lost their lives, 374643 people had injured

and 17923 people could not be found in this earthquake. After the earthquake had

happened, people from all the field joined the rescue teams. At that moment,

people only care about one thing, that was to save more people from this

disaster and encourage the injure to be strong. After seven day, the chairman

declared that May 19 is the national day of mourning. Flags were at half-mast

everywhere on the day of mourning for victims of Wenchuan earthquake.

The mourning day is to remember the people who lost their lives in the

earthquake, on one hand, is to remind people do not forget that day, don’t

forget about the past and look into the future; on the other hand, is to

encourage the survivers to stay strong. Life is worth living for.

Although Earthquake had destroyed our home, but we can build a brand-new

one. We can rebuild our hope. Just as Nixon said so, our destiny offers not the

cup of despair, but the chalice of opportunity. So let us seize it, not in fear,

but in gladness. Just have a little faith. Just try to remember that everything

will be alright. We will find what we are looking for in the future.

people with various resources.

To begin with, trees produce oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide, which offer

us fresh air. As greenhouse effect is getting more and more serious, planting

more trees is an effective way to respond to it.

Apart from this, it is tree that stabilizes soils and prevents them from

being eroded by floods. Besides, trees can be applied to against desert.

Moreover, trees perform the function of the regulation of air temperature and

humidity. This benefit to people’s fitting to the environment.

Last but not least, trees are a kind of material of paper making, which

makes our life and communication between people more convenient.

From what has been mentioned above, we can get the conclusion that trees

improve both our environment and life, it is necessary for us to plant more

trees.

Mid-autumn Day is more or less like Spring Festival. It falls on the 15th

day of the 8th lunar month. Its an important day for our Chinese, because its

a family reunion day.

On that day, there will be a big family dinner. Everyone who works outside

will go back home for the union. And they also eat moon cakes, which are the

special food for this festival. There are various kinds of moon cakes. They are

so delicious that everyone enjoys them very much.

In the evening, the moon is so bright and round, so people always prepare

some fruits and moon cakes and put them under the moon so as to pray for the

health and security all the year round. It seems that everyone is so happy.

Nowadays, most children, who are the only child in the family, are given

too much love by their parents. It is because that they are protected from

hardship and difficulties, they become less independent. However, a spoiled

child will have a hard job to live in this competitive society. We should know

the fact that no parents can keep a good company with their children for the

whole life. Thus, parents should encourage their children to do whatever they

can, so as to develop their abilities of independence.

Each year, people burn or cut down 143,000 square kilometers (55,000 square

miles) of the forest. People who burn or cut down trees do it for different

reasons: farmers cut down trees in order to get more fertilize lands to grow

rice or vegetables, and use the woods as fuel. Timber companies cut down trees

and turn them into furniture or paper productions. As to goal miners, they

remove the forests to find out whether there are goal underground.

However, many of us fail to realize that forests are the lungs of the

earth. When we cut down trees, we also push ourselves in to a dangerous

situation. That is the global warming. When you come to think about it, there

are only few ways to solve these negative effects: stop cutting down trees

blindly; try to find some clear energy that can replace oil and coal. But these

solutions can be impractical to some degreed.

Why trees can be so important to the whole nature? First of all, trees are

the habitat of many animals. When we cut down trees, we not only destroy

animals’ habitats but also ourselves. We just gradually destroy natural links.

The result is that many spices of animals and plants are dying out. Secondly,

cutting down trees cause global warming, to some degree. Naturalists compare

forest to human’s lungs. The forests absorb the carbon dioxide and other gas

that cause global warming, and then give off the oxygen that good for the human

beings and other living creatures. It’s refreshed the air as well as reduced the

noise. If the air quality is bad, people may die from cancers, or the new

diseases for which they have no immunity. Forests also play an important role in

the prevention of natural disasters. Warmer temperatures cause water to expand

and also create more water by melting polar ice caps. That’s to say, the nations

which near the ocean may have been flooded by the water. But the forests can

prevent water loss and soil erosion, and cool off the global temperatures. It’s

the key to keep the balance of the nature.

Sometimes people only care about money making; they don’t care about the

price we pay for the pollution. When the disaster is around the corner, we may

be afraid and frustrated. The earth, on which our economies have always been

based, is suddenly threatening our existence. All we hope that is this

overpopulated, over industrialized planet can carry on for a longer time. And

maybe, it’s time for us to realize that we should protect the earth, stop

cutting down trees blindly and madly.

People will make a lot of friends during their lifetime, the more friends

they make, the more capable they are. Some young people are proud of having many

friends, but only the true friends deserve us to care about. The person we make

must be positive to life. He will set the good example to you and help you to be

a better man. The bad friends will make you perverted, especially for the

teenagers, they can’t make the right judgement and are easy to follow others, so

the friends are very important part of their lives. Once they make the wrong

friends, they will do the bad thing. So we don’t need more friends, just the

right one.

正月初一是个好日子,是我们中国人的传统节日——春节。

新年第一天,我怀着无比激动的心情早早起床,穿上崭新的衣服去给奶奶拜年。奶奶笑容满面地在门口等我,我高兴地跑上去抱住她,跟她说:“奶奶,新年快乐!"吃过奶奶包的饺子,我们就出发去广场看表演。春节期间的广场跟往常都不一样,绚丽多彩的霓虹灯,欢庆春节的广告牌,张灯结彩的红灯笼,寓意吉祥的“福”字……广场不远处传来阵阵喜庆的歌声,夹杂着孩子们欢乐的笑声,真热闹啊!

不知不觉到了傍晚,夕阳下的晚霞团聚在一起,远远望去也像在吃团圆饭呢!你听,天还没暗下来,外面就传来了“砰砰”地放烟花爆竹的声音。我向窗外望去,瞬间被烟花五彩缤纷的样子吸引了。烟花在空中,一会儿变成可爱的小脸,一会儿又变成五颜六色的花朵,竞相开放。这时妈妈也做好了一桌丰盛的晚餐,阵阵菜香传来,让我直咽口水。我迫不及待地拉着爸爸妈妈赶紧坐下,一起品尝美食,享受这举国欢庆的时刻。

啊,新年是多么美好,多么温馨,我喜欢过春节，你们呢?

2014年春节到了，各处张灯结彩，都在为春节做准备。但每个地方都有不同的春节风俗，根据习俗的不同，各地会显现出不同的风俗，现在，我就来说说我们河北的春节风俗吧。

在河北，春节的时候最忘不了的就是包饺子，这时候，家里人会想出许多的办法来让家里人幸福、交好运。比如说有些人会把一颗红枣放进饺子皮让人嚼一嚼就会嚼到好运。还有一些人把一个杏子放进了饺子皮让人咬一咬就咬到了幸福。

还有就是贴春联，春联也叫门对、春联、对联、对子、桃符，等等。每逢春节，无论是城市还是农村，家家户户都要精选一幅大红春联贴于门上，为节日添加喜庆气氛。

河北还要倒贴“福”字，在贴春联的同时，大家要在屋门上、墙壁上、门楣上贴上大大小小的“福”字。“福”字指福气、福运，寄托了人们对幸福生活的向往，对美好未来的祝愿，人们干脆把“福”字倒过来贴，表示“幸福已到”、“福气已到”。

以上就些就是河北的春节习俗了，也许这里的风俗和你们那里是一样的，也许是不同样的，但都是春节的习俗。

Let my little niece winter vacation homework today, she readily agreed, she

took out a pile of books from the school bag and book, Ill ask her winter

vacation homework you have so much? She said, "yeah, were going to do winter

vacation homework book, write a complete book of the words and it is each line,

and a day to write a diary, and mathematical complete book of exercises to do."

After hearing her answer I am a little consternation, winter vacation in only a

month off, how can have so much homework, but also for second grade

children.

I will be in our school children compared with them, find our school

children is luckier. We only require students to finish winter vacation homework

book, and then make a happy years of China pictorial. Especially happy Chinese

New Year posters produced, it can let the student to understand the traditional

culture, and cultivate their ability, but also let them learn in life, found in

the life, and why not? So that the students didnt feel much homework, at the

same time also can get harvest, so now there are a lot of local education system

needs reform indeed, society needs is to be able to adapt to social development

talent, not only can keep the book a nerd. So these are thought-provoking!

I think Mid-Autumn Day is an old traditional festival in China。 Everybody

likes it because its a family get-together。 You see it is called"Mid-Autumn

Day"， so it often es in September or October。 It is on the 15th of the 8th of

the lunar month。 Now， lets say something about this interesting festival。

Firstly， Id like to say something about the moon。 I like it very much

because I want to be an astronaut in the future。 That day the moon is round，

big， just like a beautiful plate hanging on the blue cloth。 When I see the moon，

I will remember the ancient myths——the godess Chang Er and her little rabbit are

playing under the tree which Wu Gang grows。 I will also think about Armstrongs

first moonwalk。 I will also miss the friends in Tai-wan island， in Macao and

Chinese people who are abroad。 I know they are missing us very much， too。

Secondly， I11 say something about the tradition on Mid-Autumn Day。

Look!Theres a big tree in a garden of a Chinese fami-ly。 All the family members

are sitting around a big table under the tree in the open air。 They are eating

the mooncakes and admiring the full moon in the sky。 That is a family reunion

dinner。 The mooncakes and the moon represent the love from a family。 I think

this is one of the most valuable things in the world。

Thirdly，it is a very good opportunity to make three wishes on Mid-Autumn

Day。 My wishes are: the first， I， an astronaut in the future， would like to go

to the moon one day， and stay with the sky and stars; the second， I hope every

person in the world will stay with family， share love from the family forever;

the third， I hope everybodys dream will e true。

That is the Mid-Autumn Day in my mind。 I will always re-member: East or

West， home is best。

when we think of halloween, we think of "trick or treat", pumpkins, jack o lanterns, vampires and haunted houses.

but do you know the origin of halloween? why does it fall on 31 october? what kind of festival is it? why is it so creepy?

halloween dates back to a celtic festival called samhain. november 1 is the new year of the celts, who lived in europe more than a thousand years ago. this is the day which marked the end of summer and harvest.

the celts believed that on the night of october 31, ghosts of the dead would return to earth. the celts celebrated samhain by dressing up in costumes with animal heads and having bonfires.

many celts settled in britain and ireland, where the festival became popular. those who moved to america took the tradition with them.

nowadays, most people celebrate halloween but only for fun. they are not worried about ghosts.

kids in america will dress up as devils or angels and will go from house to house calling "trick or treat", playing mischievous tricks and getting sweets.

americans spend more money on halloween than christmas! in xx, more than hk$45 billion was spent on halloween. and hk$15 billion of that was spent on candy alone!!!

kids in britain also dress up at halloween. they visit houses, sing songs or tell a joke to get sweets. many go to halloween parties and play games like "ducking for apples". you must pick up an apple in water but you can only use your mouth. try it!

春节是小朋友们一年中最开心的一天了。因为在那天不仅可以穿新衣、放鞭炮、还可以得到压岁钱。关于春节的来由，还有一个传说，你们想听吗？

在很久很久以前，大雪封山了，饥饿的大怪兽从山坡上跑到了村子里，大怪兽一挥手，房子就倒了，一跺脚，地上就出现一个大坑，一吼叫，周围马上地动山摇，它的名字叫“年”。它见猪吃猪、见羊吃羊，吓得村民们都躲进了屋子里不敢出来。这时有一个人穿着红衣服扛着锄头从地里回来了，他看见了年兽，吓得把锄头“咣当”一声掉在了地上。年听到响声便走到了他面前，他被年吓得两腿直哆嗦，就像筛糠一样。可年看见了红色的衣服，却吓得抱着头逃走了。一位白发苍苍的老爷爷说：“年怕三样东西。”人们问：“哪三样？”老爷爷说：“红色、火、巨大的声响。”

第二年冬天，年又来了，它东张西望，看不见猪、羊、人。于是就继续在村子里转悠，它看见家家户户的门上都挂着红色的木板，立刻被吓得横冲直撞。人们跑出来，个个穿着红色的衣服、放起了鞭炮，年吓得落荒而逃。从此以后年再也不敢骚扰村民了，人们过上了幸福的生活。

为了表示庆贺，每到春节这一天人们就穿新衣、放鞭炮、小朋友们挣压岁钱……真是快乐无比啊！

I like reading books so much, rencently, I fall in love with the travel

books. When I open these books, I am attracted by the colorful pictures. Reading

these books can broaden my vision, I know there are so many places that I have

never heard of before. I also learn the different culture. I am so eager to go

to these places and have a look at them. So I have made up my mind, I will

travel to the places that are around me first, and then when I grow up, I will

travel further. This is my little dream, it is also my motivation to study

well.

昨天晚上，我到小区学校的春节晚会当志愿者，开始的时间是5：00，结束是7：30。在过程中，我第一个任务是先站在签到台，帮老师在卡片上写1、2、3、4……等数字，交给来宾们当抽奖券;第二个任务是晚会结束时，帮助推门，方便人们离开。

学校小丹老师告诉我们志愿者是很辛苦的，因为他们只能工作，而不能看节目，我和志愿者哥哥姐姐们一直坚持到最后，虽然中间有一点小偷懒，但被老师提醒一次后，我就没有犯过错。

最后，老师们给我们志愿者评分，我得到的分数是9分、10分、10分，虽然分数很高，但我也要继续努力!

今天是大年三十，妈妈带我去参加公司的年夜饭聚餐，听了这消息我可高兴了。我们从家到春秋大酒楼，大约用了十分钟，当时是夜晚，路灯都亮起来了，路上的人也很少，大家都休假了；马路很宽；路上的车也很少，大家都回乡过年了。

我们刚进酒楼，就闻到了佳肴的香味，妈妈的同事们都来了，我们找到座号也坐了下来，大家围在一起嗑瓜子、聊天，其乐融融，像个大家庭。不一会儿，主持人上场了，首先请店长说了新春贺词，之后让主持人宣布一个小游戏，就是给每个人发一张抽奖券，待会边吃饭边抽奖，我拿到的是800901副券，我边吃菜肴边竖起听。

参加完这次年夜饭，让我感受到大家庭的温暖。

The Ten-minute Break Between Classes Time seems to be so limited for us Senior Three students. As a result, more and more students try to study from early morning till late afternoon, even during the ten-minute breaks. In my view, taking a ten minute break between classes is equally important. Otherwise, we will feel exhausted both physically and mentally,During the ten minute break, we are supposed to do something really relaxing, we need is to have a rest, instead of getting more tired. Besides, studying during the break doesn ’ t necessarily mean that you will achieve more. So doing nothing tiring in that short period is of greater significance. As far as my ten-minute breaks are concerned, sometimes I take some simple exercise, such as having a walk with my classmates, or just a free chat to refresh myself. When the next class begins, I feel energetic again.

We have read so many inspiring examples about how the successful people

stick to their dreams. We see the power of persistence. But as I see different

situations, sometimes the way to gain achievement is not favored by me.

Different people have different ways to keep move on.

For those people whose family are not poor, they can chase their dreams

without hesitation. The parents will give great support to them and no matter

what their children do, they just want them to be happy. Without the economic

burden, those people can focus all their attention and follow their dreams all

the time.

But for the persons whose family are poor, especially the parents are

waiting for the children’s economic support, they should make ends meet first

and then follow their dreams. Life can’t be ideal all the time, only when they

solve the basic needs, dreams will be supported. Some people make the things

they like as a hobby, they keep studying it in their spared time, if insist,

they will get the extra achievement.

Following dreams completes our life and make us live with meaning. The will

of never giving up will bring us success someday.

When doing the same thing, some people success but some fail. There must be

many factors leading that result. In my view, the most important factor is the

difference of confidence, determination and sociability are the foundation and

condition of success.

First of all, no matter who want to success, they must have confidence, as

confidence is the basic need for success. If someone always thinks he can’t do

this or that well, then he can’t finish it well. For example, when a person is

being interviewed, if he doesn’t believe he can do that job well, how can he act

believable, so how can the interviewers trust his ability? Therefore, the

interview is obviously a failure. However, if a person is confident, he can

receive the opportunity to prepare for every challenge easily, which makes

success become closer.

In addition, confidence just the door for success, if someone wants to get

into the house of success, determination is necessary. The determined meet

difficulties always overcome it and insist to the end. On the other hand, if

someone is not determined, he would give up when facing difficulty. For

instance, when doing homework, the person who is not determined always can’t

finish perfectly and even copy from others when he thinks that homework is hard

to finish. However, the person who is determined always can finish it well,

because he know what he really wants and he is able to carry on.

The last but not least is that no one can do anything well by themselves,

so they need help. At that time, sociable is helpful. It is well-known that

success is hard to reach. Therefore, people need others to help them. A sociable

person can get help easily, as he has so many friends. On the other side, a

person is not good at communication, when he gets in trouble, maybe no one helps

him. So we can see the importance of sociability to success.

In a word, there maybe not only confidence, determination, and sociability

are essential to success, but I think they are the most important ones, for they

are the foundation and condition of success.
