Dear Mr. Cao

Hello!

Today, I would like to recommend to you a picture book of traditional

Chinese festivals, Spring Festival.

Spring Festival is the most grand, the most lively and the most important

ancient traditional festival in China. Every Spring Festival, we paste couplets,

red window decorations, and "pour" blessing. But why should the word "Fu" be

pasted upside down? It turns out that the word "Dao" and "Dao" are homophonic,

and vice versa is Fu "Dao". Its like "Fu" is home.

During the Spring Festival, we should not only paste couplets, red window

decorations and "pour" happiness, but also set off firecrackers and fireworks,

and wear red clothes. After reading this book, I realized that there was a

monster called Nian in ancient China. It went to the village to eat cattle,

sheep, chickens, pigs and people every year. Until one year, an old grandfather

who came to the village to beg lived in his wifes house when the villagers went

to avoid animals in the cave. When the "Nian" beast came, he set off

firecrackers in the yard and came out wearing a big red robe. In this way,

"Nian" beast was scared away. Since then, people have pasted couplets, red

window decorations and "Daofu" on their doors. They also set off firecrackers

and fireworks, and put on red clothes. If you are interested, dont read this

book.

Then there is the new years money. Every year on the eve of the Spring

Festival, adults give children lucky money. The original purpose of lucky money

is to suppress evil and expel evil spirits. Because people think that children

are vulnerable to the invasion of ghosts and insects, they use new years money

to drive away evil spirits and help children celebrate the new year safely. I

wish the children good health, good luck and peace in the new year. There is

also an old legend. This legend has something to do with a little demon called

"Sui". You will know after reading this book.

In a word, after reading this book, I gained a lot and also felt the spirit

of Chinese traditional culture. So I want to share with you, hope you will like

it!

wish

Happy new year and good health!

Your student: Wen Zhuo Yan

Dear teacher takong

Hello, I wish you health and happiness in the New Year!

It is said that one day is a teacher and "life is a father". You have

taught me hard for four years. The knowledge I learned in my four years of

Enlightenment has benefited me a lot. I regard you as "a mother for life". I

often think of three old people -- father, mother and you.

Think of your efforts to us, todays teachers will pay, but their

remuneration is high to the sky. Students who are not good at learning can make

up lessons. In the past four years, there are no repeaters in our class. It was

an excellent class with red scarf in the county. At that time, it was worthy of

the name. It is not like that we have to evaluate what we want to send from East

to west. At that time, there were a lot of poor students. Some students couldnt

even pay the tuition fee of 1 yuan and 6 jiao. You paid it for them. Todays

teachers are impatient to see many poor students.

When you were born to build a new brother, the students invited to see you.

Everyone gathered together a few cents to buy two catties and dried it. You said

that was not good. As long as you had this intention, you would be very happy

and asked everyone to eat it. At that time, you were not sensible and greedy, so

they ate more than half of those sent to you. Now I think of it as ridiculous,

naive and lovely. You told us to listen to the substitute teacher and ask the

monitor to take some poor students to your home with their homework books. You

patiently tell them the reasons why they are not good at their studies, and tell

them about it. An inch of time is worth an inch of money, and an inch of money

is hard to buy an inch of time. If you fail to pass the grade for another year,

its a pity that you have given them supplementary lessons. In order to

consolidate the results, you let the students with good grades help one poor

student, This kind of professionalism has infected us and sowed good seeds in

our hearts. Even when we are adults, we are very dedicated to our work, but not

as good as you.

You said that you often have classmates to see you, said that we have

teacher-student feelings - this is your love for us, so we can not forget you,

so we have to visit you. We know how many years ago you were named a model

teacher, and the students are happy for you; you deserve it!

What moved me all my life is that you came to my sick mother! When you

heard that my mother was seriously ill, you brought the expensive nutriment and

asked to find our home. We all thank you very much. It has been 30 years since

you taught me. Is there any such teacher now? In addition to visiting my parents

every time I go home to visit you, no gift has been given to you. A primary

school teacher remembers the students she taught for decades, Im afraid not

many; Im not a celebrity, Im not a big money, I dont have an official

position, Im a very ordinary person, teacher; you are my cultural benefactor,

the most respected person in our family, when I write this letter to you, my

mother will be happy in heaven, because in her illness, you go to see her, she

is happy for a long time.

New years day, I wish the teacher to enjoy the happiness of his family,

students, you study hard, do not understand the place to ask me, I am a teacher,

"can not mislead peoples children" with this sentence will always linger in my

ears. Teacher, you can live a long life. Now you are 80 years old and still in

good health. I am happy for you. I will not forget you. I will go to see

you.

I wish the teacher health, happiness and longevity

Your student Lu Guiling

It was pretty sunny last Monday , I , together with a few my alien friends and gusts cycled to your holley destination —— the Great Wall. To tell you the truth , we have been imagining visiting there for quite a long time , and eventually we fulfilled our dream .

After approximately one hour’s cycling , the grand splendid construction appeared in front of us . “our efforts count!” one of my foreign friends shouted stimulatedly. The Great Wall, which looks much likely a huge stationary dragon , lies silently on the beautiful , historical ground . “That’s regarded as the symbol of China ! ” I said proudly ,’It is one of the ten architecture miracles on the earth ! ’

With a delightful and modest sensation , we walked upwards the respectable construction , feeling the incredible intelligence of ancient Chinese architects and labours . In the process of climbing , I sincerely wish that China would become stronger and stronger.

We spent the whole afternoon on the wall , and no one felt like going back until too late in the evening . We do enjoy this significant journey !

I live with my father and mother in a very big house in dongguan. My parents are both very busy. They leave for work very early in the morning and don’t return home until late in the evening.

When i am home on weekends from school, we spend a lot of time together. we talk about my studies, my health and my school life. i love my parents very much.

My grandparents are still living, but they don’t live with us. Their health is good and they both do sports very early in the morning. My grandmother does gymnastics with elderly women her age in the park. Both of my grandfathers play basketball in the morning and sometimes they go swimming.

Chinese people eat rice for every meal, but i don’t like rice because i think it is tasteless! we eat meat, fish and vegetables. My family eats noodles and congee. my favorite is noodles.

I often play computer games because i like it so much. I often watch Japanese cartoon movies with my parents on the weekends. On long holidays we take trips, too.

That is my description of typical family life in china.

[中国的家庭生活英语作文

The New Year begins, we as if in anything is very fresh. New clothes, books, new challenge! Do you want to know my new plan?

A, spend learning. Teacher often said that "everybody has frequently as the diameter, road to learning bitter for a ship", "book is the ladder of human progress." So, this year Im going to my "nest egg" to buy the readers digest "childrens literature". Change to buy some snacks to eat, and New Years money, I used to be tuition, buy stationery.

Second, challenge themselves, beyond the limit. Because of the arrogance of last semester, leading to the final exam a slip-up, confusion, pride, at that time careless, eventually "lost" Han gave the rain! So, Im going to in this semester, do your best to go beyond the rain Han. In addition, I served as the monitor in the class, so I will try to manage the class when the teacher good assistants and teachers and students between the Bridges.

Third, get rid of disadvantages, everyone together, make a sensible boy. Before I always always love lost his temper, at home, eat good, wear well, live a good, like a little princess, I dont know my parents in the mind of the bitter. From watching the TV series "warm spring", I was going to save money, help my mother do the housework, reduce the burden of parents.

Flowers are open, all is a bird to fly, is to smoke a leaf tree. Who doesnt want to be a general is not a good soldier. Today, I was involved in a winner; Tomorrow, I am a successful participants! In the New Year, we struggle for yourself!

新的一年开始了，我们仿佛对任何事物都很有新鲜感。新的衣服，新的书本，新的挑战!你想知道我的新计划吗?

一、花钱学问。老师常说“书山有路勤为径，学海无涯苦作舟”、“书是人类进步的阶梯”。所以，今年我打算吧我的“私房钱”用来买《读者》《儿童文学》。零钱来买一些零食吃，而压岁钱就用来当学费、买文具用品。

二、挑战自我，超越极限。因为上学期的骄傲自大，导致期末考试一时疏忽，一时糊涂，一时骄傲，一时马虎，最终“败”给了雨晗!所以，我打算在这个学期里，尽自己最大的努力超越雨晗。另外，我在班里担任班长，所以我也会尽量管理好班级，当老师的好助手和老师与同学之间的桥梁。

三、改掉缺点、大家团结，做个懂事的好孩子。以前的我总是动不动就爱发脾气，在家里，吃好的、穿好的、住好的，就像一个小公主，不知爸妈心里的苦。自从看了电视剧《暖春》，我便打算节约用钱，帮妈妈做家务，减轻爸妈的负担。

是花都要开放，是鸟都要飞翔，是树都要抽枝长叶。不想当将军的士兵就不是好兵。今天，我是参与成功者;明天， 我是成功的参与者!在新的一年里，我们为自己而奋斗吧!

Chinese New Year is a Chinese traditional festival. We also call it the Spring Festival. It is on lunar January 1st.

On New Year’s Eve, all the people sit around the desk and have a big family dinner. There are some vegetables, some fish, some meat, some fruits and some drink like juice, Coke, Pepsi and some nice wine. Overall, this is a good and delicious dinner. After dinner, we always watch TV New Year progammes. We have a wonderful evening on New Year’s Eve.On the first day of the Spring Festival, most of people get up early and say “happy new year” to each other. For breakfast, people often eat dumplings and baozi. After breakfast, people often make many delicious foods, and children often play cards, computer games and fireworks. On the second and third day, we visit friends and relatives.

Everyone is busy on Chinese New Year, and everyone is happy, too.

I am a Chinese. Ive always been making dreams from time to time. Those dreams made by each average Chinese like me are certainly Chinese dreams. Dreams vary from person to person, and also from time to time. But in a certain era, people share the similar dreams. Here I’d like to share my Chinese dreams with you.

When I was a child in 1970s, poverty kept hovering over my family, just as it did with other average families in the countryside. The misfit second-hand clothes, rain-leaking roof of old adobe house became part of my memory. However, the worse impression is that I was feeling hungry all the time. Sometimes hunger bit me so severely that I regarded dried sweet potato slices as delicious snack, the sharp crack of chewing which are still echoing in my dream. At that time, my dream was getting enough to fill my cooing empty belly.

In the early years of 1980s, as the reform and opening-up policy was implemented, the children dream came true. And then, another dream became clearer and clearer in my mind. I must try my best to escape out of my impoverished and backward hometown. I worked harder at my study than most of my classmates, and, after luckily succeeding in the national college entrance examination, my dream became reality again: after graduation, I became a citizen working in a city. As the first college graduate out of a remote village, my success set an example for my folks. They came to realize that schooling is a good way to change one’s fate. In the following years, there were less drop-outs and more college graduates in my village, of which I am proud even today.

Afterwards, I got accustomed to the life of citizens and I began to dream the same things as other peers: a comfortable home, my own car and a spacious apartment. Based on my toil, more than ten years passed, all of these dreams have been fulfilled. Of course, new dreams will occur to me again and again as time rolls on. Whatever, I believe most of my dreams will come true sooner or later only if my motherland keep advancing with current pace.

My Chinese dreams are also ones of other Chinese people. If every individual’s dreams come true, the dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation will sure to come true. "The Chinese dream, after all, is the dream of the people,” as the newly-elected Chairman Xi Jinping said.

Dear Mr. Cao

Hello!

First of all, I wish you all the best in the new year. After such a long

holiday, where are you going to play? We went out on a big cruise ship. The

cruise ship is like a small city with everything! Im very excited! I brought a

book "understanding Chinese traditional festivals" on my journey. This book

makes me really understand the meaning of the Spring Festival. Let me also tell

you about it to Mr. Cao!

This book is full of rich cultural atmosphere. The text interprets the text

with pictures and notes each other. It vividly shows the general situation,

origin, celebration activities and various folk customs of traditional Chinese

festivals such as the Spring Festival, the Lantern Festival and the Dragon Boat

Festival. Let more Chinese people have an in-depth understanding of their own

traditional festivals, and also open a window to the folk customs for foreign

friends who want to understand the ancient Chinese culture.

It introduces why the Spring Festival is called "Chinese New Year"? Why do

you eat Zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival? How is "qiqiqiaoqiao" going on?

In this book, the author uses pictures and stories to uncover the mystery

for readers. This is not only a pleasant reading, but also a kind trip back to

folk customs.

I see that the Spring Festival, Tomb Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival,

Mid Autumn Festival and other traditional festivals add endless fun to peoples

lives. But how much do you know about the stories behind these festivals? Dont

worry. Now open this book and follow the two lovely children in the book to

start this rare journey of looking back on traditional folk festivals. This book

introduces what are the traditional Chinese festivals? What is the history? And

so on. There are pictures at the bottom of each paragraph. There will be a few

children talking about other customs below. They look vivid and interesting, but

they are good-looking. Let me tell you something about it. There are many

introductions about the Spring Festival in the book, such as: the Spring

Festival in the traditional sense refers to the twelfth lunar month On the

eighth day of the eighth day of the lunar month or the third day of the twelfth

lunar month, the sacrificial stoves lasted until the fifteenth day of the first

month, with new years Eve and the first day of the first month as the climax.

The first day of the first month is the first day of the year, also known as

lunar new year. The word Spring Festival has different special meanings in

different historical periods. It is said that in ancient times, there was a

monster called Nian. It changed from eating insects to eating big living people.

Therefore, people in the village were very afraid of it. Every winter, when food

was scarce in the mountains, Nian would intrude into the village and hunt for

people and livestock. People were always in panic. Later, people all know that

Nian is most afraid of red, fire and noise, so the family will paste couplets on

the door, so Nian dare not come! Ha ha, isnt it very attractive to you!

This book is really recommended. I cant get tired of reading every page.

Its so interesting. I know so much about customs and culture, and its even

more fascinating because there are illustrations and texts. Youll love it, Miss

Cao!

OK, thats it!

Best wishes

Good health and family happiness

Chinese Food

Chinese food is famous all over the world, if you ask a foreigner how about Chinese food, they will be full of praise。

中国的美食在全世界都是出名的，一提到中国食物，他们都会赞不绝口。

When we see the movie, Chinese food is praised by the people. Recently, there is a famous movie called A Bite of China, the movie is popular, it introduces Chinese food from different places. The audience is attracted by the delicious food, they never thought Chinese food would be so various. Now the second part of the movie has been made out, more and more Chinese traditional food has been introduced. After appreciating the movie, I begin to learn more about Chinese food, I want to have taste of them. I am so proud of our food, when we talk about it to foreign friends, we can feel their favor of our food. The food is part of our culture, they should be inherited.高中英语作文

当我们看到电影时，中国的食物广泛受到人们的赞扬。最近，有一部很出名的电影叫《舌尖上的中国》，电影很受欢迎，介绍了来自中国不同地方的食物。观众受到了这些美味的食物吸引，他们从来没想到中国的食物可以有这么多的种类。现在电影的第二部分也已经上映，介绍了越来越多的中国传统美食。欣赏了电影以后，我开始学着了解更多中国的美食，我想要尝一尝。我为我们国家的食物感到自豪，当我们和外国朋友讨论中国食物时，我们能感觉到他们对我们食物的喜爱。这些食物是我们文化的一部分，应该要传承下来。

SomeHolidays are so much fun that they catch on outside of their culture. The most obvious exampleisprobably Christmas, which is celebrated around the world by people who aren’t even Christian. Similarly, in recent years, the Dragon Boat Festival has moved beyond China to become an international holiday celebrated by people who may know little about the holiday’s origins.

有些节日实在是很有趣，所以在本土文化以外的地方也很受欢迎。最明显的例子可能就是圣诞节，世界各地的人都会庆祝圣诞节，即使是非基督徒。同样，最近几年端午节已经不局限于中国，成为国际性节日，而庆祝的人可能对节日的由来并不太了解。

The Dragon Boat Festival is one of three majorChineseholidays, along with the Spring and Moon Festivals. Of the three, it is possibly the oldest, dating back to the Warring States Period in 227 B.C. The festival commemorates Qu Yuan, a minister in the service of the Chu Emperor. Despairing over corruption at court, Qu threw himself into a river. Townspeople jumped into their boats and tried in vain to save him. Then, hoping to distract hungry fish from his body, the people scattered rice on the water.

端午节与春节和中秋节并列为中国三大节日。这三个节日中，它可能是最古老的一个，可以追溯到公元前227年的战国时代。这个节日是为了纪念楚国的大夫屈原，他因为对朝廷的贪污腐败感到绝望而投河自尽。镇上的人纷纷冲上船去救他，却没有成功。后来大家把米撒到水里，希望把饥饿的鱼群从他的躯体边引开。

Over the years, the story of Qu’s demise transformed into the traditions of racing dragon boats and eating zongzi – a kind of rice wrapped in bamboo leaves. The races have certainly captured the imagination of people from all over the world. Every spring there are nearly 60 dragon boat races held outside of China in cities from Vancouver to Sydney, from Gdańsk, Poland to Cape Town, South Africa. Canada alone has nearly 50 dragon boat teams and Germany has nearly 30.

多年以后，屈原逝世的故事逐渐演变成赛龙舟和吃粽子(一种包在竹叶中的米食)的传统。这些竞赛显然激起了世界各地人们的想像，每年春天有将近60场龙舟赛在中国境外的城市举办，从温哥华到悉尼，从波兰的格但斯克到南非的开普敦。单单字加拿大就有将近50支龙舟队伍，德国则有近30个。

So what is it about the Dragon Boat Festival that appeals to foreigners? “It’s an unusual

sport,” says one racer from Germany. “It’s not like everybody’s doing it. That’s one of the reasons that there’s such great team spirit in a dragon boat team – everybody feels like we’re doing something special.” And what about the zongzi? “Ehhh, they’re not bad, I guess,” he says. “Something of an acquired taste. I just haven’t really acquired it yet.”

那么，为什么端午节赛龙舟会吸引外国人呢?“这是一项不寻常的运动。”一位来自德国的参赛者说，“这并不是所有的人都在从事的运动。这正是龙舟队的团队精神如此高昂的原因之一，每个人都觉得自己在做一件很特别的事。”那么粽子呢?“喔，我觉得它不难吃。”他说，“那是一种需要后天培养的品味。我只是还没培养出来罢了。”

The Dragon Boat Festival ,also called the Duanwu Festival ,is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to the

Chinese calendar.People always eat rice dumplings and watch dragon boat races to celebrate it.

The festival is best known for its dragon-boat races,especially in the southern places where there are many rivers and lakes. Ití?s

very popular.

The rice dumpling is made of glutinous rice,meat and so on. You can eat different kinds of rice dumplings.They are very delicious.

And Dragon Boat Festival is for Qu Yuan. He is an honest minister who is said to have committed suicide by drowning himself in a

river.

In recent years, Chinese traditional culture, as Sinology, has become increasingly prevalent. For instance, it is reported that many primary and secondary schools have set up courses of sinology, in which students are taught and required to recite classical work by Chinese ancient educators and philosophers, like Confucius.

It is of vital significance for the public to acquire knowledge on Sinology.For one thing, it is the essence of Chinese civilization with more than 5000 years. Thus, for individuals, they can enlarge their scope of knowledge, enrich their experience and adapt themselves to the complicated society. For another, the rehabilitation of Sinology can contribute to a harmonious society.

It is highly expected that all Chinese people should inherit the merits of Sinology. Therefore, in the first place, we are well-advised to read books by ourselves or to attend lectures on this issue. In the second place, we have the obligation to advocate and encourage others to learn. Then, it is necessary for us to introduce Sinology to the world. By doing so, not only can we inherit it, but also make it glorious and prosperous.

As a colleage student,first ,we should fully realize the importance of studying traditional culture ,such as reading classic books and practice calligraphy and chinese painting ,we also should remember and celebrate our own fesitivals,like the Spring Festival,the Dragon Festival and so on.

New year new day, new year is coming, and we all preparing for it.

Nowadays, Chinese people are everywhere, on the one hand, they like to travel and on the other hand, the population is very large. But foreigners’ impression on Chinese is not always good. The media have reported the negative incidents that were brought by Chinese tourists, and many foreigners have given their opinion and criticized the tourists’ behavior. It is true that many Chinese people haven’t realized their bad behavior, such as talking loudly in the public occasion. As we have the large population, so not every people has the chance to receive good education. What’s more, the foreign media just reported the bad side while ignoring the good side, so the foreign people always think Chinese people are rude. We admit that we are not doing well enough and we need to behave ourselves. And I believe that a wise man will make his own judgment when he communicate with Chinese.
