The Qingming (Pure Brightness) Festival is one of the 24 seasonal division points in china, falling on April 4-6 each year. After the festival, the temperature will rise up and rainfall increases. It is the high time for spring plowing and sowing. But the Qingming Festival is not only a seasonal point to guide farm work, it is more a festival of commemoration.

The Qingming Festival sees a combination of sadness and happiness.

This is the most important day of sacrifice. Both the Han and minority ethnic groups at this time offer sacrifices to their ancestors and sweep the tombs of the diseased. Also, they will not cook on this day and only cold food is served.

The Hanshi (cold Food) Festival was usually one day before the Qingming Festival. As our ancestors often extended the day to the Qingming, they were later combined.

On each Qingming Festival, all cemeteries are crowded with people who came to sweep tombs and offer sacrifices. Traffic on the way to the cemeteries becomes extremely jammed. The customs have been greatly simplified today. After slightly sweeping the tombs, people offer food, flowers and favorites of the dead, then burn incense and paper money and bow before the memorial tablet.

In contrast to the sadness of the tomb sweepers, people also enjoy hope of Spring on this day. The Qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines brightly, the trees and grass become green and nature is again lively. Since ancient times, people have followed the custom of Spring outings. At this time tourists are everywhere.

People love to fly kites during the Qingming Festival. Kite flying is actually not limited to the Qingming Festival. Its uniqueness lies in that people fly kites not during the day, but also at night. A string of little lanterns tied onto the kite or the thread look like shining stars, and therefore, are called "gods lanterns."

The Qingming Festival is also a time to plant trees, for the survival rate of saplings is high and trees grow fast later. In the past, the Qingming Festival was called "Arbor Day". But since 1979, "Arbor Day" was settled as March 12 according to the gregorian calendar.

昨天，我看着第十一号飞船直冲云霄。我的思绪又开始了神秘的旅行。

夜晚，月亮已经升上了天空。突然，一道金光笼罩着我，我高兴地一蹦三尺高：是飞碟!我高兴地说：“飞碟、飞碟，你带我看一看太空。”飞碟缓缓地打开门好像同意似的。我闭着眼睛，突然我的身体飘了起来，我随着金光飞进了飞碟。

太空是深蓝色的，以前总觉得月亮比地球大，太阳比地球小。现在我明白了，地球月亮很大，太阳比地球大。原来我有好多疑惑的问题，现在我在太空中全部解决了。

我飞到了一个无名的星球，突然一群外国人走过来，热情地说：“欢迎来到A星球。”我疑惑地说：“为什么A星球的人会说地球人的话?”外星人看着我疑惑的样子说：“我们发明了一个星球语言器，会说各种星球的语言。”

他们带我去了公园。我被那里的景色给惊呆了。那里鸟语花香，树木成群。连风吹过来都是香的，比地球的香水还要香。我有点饿，他们带我去餐厅吃饭。那里的食物可以根据自己的爱好会变颜色、变味、变形。桌子上还有一个按钮，要是一按，会来一个机器人单独为你服务。

他们又带我去了动物园，那里的动物非常好，孔雀的毛长在了乌鸦的身上，驴的头长在了马的屁股上，马的头有出现在老虎的身体上。还有地球已经灭绝的渡渡鸟、霸王龙、海龙、翼龙……都在动物园里。

哗、哗……我被掌声给吵醒了，睁眼一看，生活在太空的景海鹏和陈冬安全的回到了地球上。原来是一场梦呀，可是我相信，只要我好好学习，长大了，一定有机会去太空做客。

西湖是一幅美丽的图画，很像有人画出了西湖，西湖春、夏、秋、冬都风景如画。

西湖在春季时，最引人注目，就连匆匆忙忙、跑来跑去的春风，也要停下来，拿出了一把最绿的梳子，好好给杨柳妹妹梳梳头;柳树的枝条向春天摇来摇去，原来，是为了谢谢春天。桃花见春天来了，笑红了脸。春天又清除了湖上的脏东西，这下，湖水变得无比干净，像一面大镜子，柳树照见了自己美丽的身影，小鸟喳喳叫着，仿佛也在夸奖湖水呢!

在夏季，阳光很大，照在湖上，让湖水受不了，荷叶见了，赶紧拿出雨伞，遮住阳光，湖水仿佛说：“快下来躲一躲吧!”荷花可不怕热，在荷叶间捉迷藏。可真是“接天莲叶无穷碧，映日荷花别样红”。

在秋季，岸边的桂花十里飘香，枫叶飘来飘去，好像一枚枚邮票，邮来了丰收的歌吟;一只只小船划过湖面，一道道波纹漂向岸边，湖水也很欢迎它们。

冬天时，湖岸上有一朵朵梅花钻出枝头，还有一阵阵欢笑声，原来是小朋友在打雪仗;大树披上了一件白色的大衣，好像也怕冷，西湖上结了冰，也开始了冬眠。

西湖风光真好啊，无论是下雨晴天，风景都很美!

The majority Han Chinese have long followed the tradition of eating laba rice porridge on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month. The date usually falls in min-January and is a traditional Chinese festival.

Legend about the origin of this festivity abounds One maintains that over 3,000 years ago sacrificial rites were held in the twelfth lunar month when people offered up their prey to the gods of heaven and earth. The Chinese characters for the hunt and the twelfth month were interchangeable then, and ever since la has been used to refer to both. Since the festival was held on the eighth day of the last month, people later appended the number eighth , giving us the current laba.

Buddhism was well accepted in the areas inhabited Han Chinese, who believed that Sakyamuni, the first Buddha and founder of the religion, attained enlightenment on 12/8. Sutras were chanted in the temples and rice porridge with beans, nuts and dried fruit was prepared for the Buddha. With time the custom extended, especially in rural areas where peasants would pray for a plentiful harvest in this way.

There is, however, another touching story. When Sakyamuni was on his way into the high mountains in his quest for understanding and enlightenment, he grew tired and hungry. Exhausted from days of walking, he passed into unconsciousness by a river in India. A shepherdess found him there and fed him her lunch.

今天是清明节，我早早的就起床了，穿上校服，戴上红领巾，早早的来到了学校。到了学校以后，老师先让我们排好队，听了校长的讲话后，我们一起出发了。今天的天气非常好，晴空万里，暖暖的春风吹在脸上，暖洋洋的真舒服，我们排着整齐的队伍，举着红旗，在老师的带领下，到文山去扫墓，我往后一看，队伍一眼望不到边。

Today is Tomb Sweeping Day, I got up early, put on uniforms, wearing a red scarf, came to school early. After school, the teacher let us lined up, listening to the presidents speech, we set off together. Today the weather is good, sunny, warm spring breeze blowing in the face, warm comfortable, we row tidy team, holding a red flag, under the guidance of the teacher, to Wenshan to sweep the tombs, I looked back and saw the team, Wang Budao edge.

路途很远，可是我们一点都感觉不到累，到了文山上，我们先向烈士宣誓，然后给烈士们献上自己亲手做的小白花。又给烈士们唱了一首歌。最后，老师又带我们去参观了博物馆，合影留念，时间过的真快，不知不觉就中午了，妈妈来接我回家，我还真有点依依不舍。

Its a long way, but we do not feel tired, went to Wenshan, we first to the martyrs martyrs oath, and with his own hands to do small white flowers. And sing a song for martyrs. Finally, the teacher took us to visit the museum, posed for pictures, the time off really fast, imperceptibly to noon, my mother to take me home, I also really a little be reluctant to part.

“加油!加油!加油……”那助威声此起彼伏，回荡在我耳边，那场面热闹非凡，浮现在我眼前。在笔畅作文班举行的踢毽子比赛真是精彩绝伦，令人回味。

周日上午，我一到笔畅作文班，王老师就宣布了一个振奋人心的消息：上一会课后要举行一场踢毽子比赛。那堂关于写活动方面的作文课，我们听得异常认真。

果不其然，老师讲完课就组织我们去活动室进行踢毽子比赛。这次比赛的规则也很不一般：参赛选手分两组，每组四人，比赛时间为三分钟，三分钟内哪一组踢的多，哪一组获胜，前提是每个组员至少踢一次。我想：这个规则一定有“玄机”。

王老师一声令下，激烈的比赛开始了。我组队员每人踢过一次毽子后，就把毽子交给了号称“踢毽子王”的郑嘉文，而我们三个充当起了啦啦队员。只见我方的郑嘉文踢得非常快，毽子上下跳动好像是用一根隐形的皮筋系在他脚上似的。而第二组的同学一会儿一个大飞脚踢到了一米之外，一会儿把毽子踢到了天花板上，只见那毽子又重重的反弹下来，无奈地坐在地上……可他们组不甘示弱，特别是李彦霏同学，她连踢了十几个且还在继续，眼看他们组要追上我们组踢得毽子数了。“郑嘉文，加油!不要掉……”我们组啦啦队的呐喊声更大了。只见郑嘉文鼓起劲，继续踢，可能是因为用力过猛，他不小心把毽子踢到了一米外，可他面不改色，一个箭步冲上去，毽子又乖乖地回到了他的脚上。我们先是为他捏了一把汗，紧接着便是情不自禁地“哦”“哇”声一片，大家情不自禁地给郑嘉文鼓起的掌，你别说，我的手都鼓疼了。郑嘉文不愧是“踢毽子王”，这毽子踢得太出神入化了!

时间随着毽子的舞动一分一秒的流走，三分钟到了，比赛结束。我们组踢了182个，第二组踢了162个。我们赢了，我们欢呼着高兴地一蹦三尺高。

这真是一场让人不容易忘却的精彩比赛，从中我更明白了团队力量是无限的，要发挥好团队里每一个人的作用。

A survey about smokers in a middle school tells that although 90% of all students never smoke, 3% of them often smoke and 7% sometimes do. In other words, 10% of the students smoke. That s terrible.

As we know, smoking is harmful to our health. Every year, thousands of people lose their lives because of it. Smoking not only does harm to your health, but also wastes money. Because, a fire may be caused by cigarette ends. It s a pity to learn that one ends in death by smoking.

In all, smoking is so dangerous that we should keep away from it.

和谐之橙

夜幕即将降临，最后一抹晚霞映在了草坪之上。同学们如鸿雁一般，秩序井然地离开了操场。但是每个人的目光中都透出无限的不舍。蓦然回首，望着那片绿茵，会心一笑，所有烦恼都抛之于身后。那里似乎还氤氲着胜利的喜悦。

激情进行曲

看，阳光下，一个个小小的身影驰骋在绿茵之上，他们挥洒汗水，勇往直前，青春的气息散发开去。听，秋风中，同学们铿锵有力的励志呼喊，为运动员们奏响了一支激情的进行曲。

跌倒了，没关系，立刻站起!落后了，没关系，加紧步履!进球了，别骄傲，严防死守!丢分了，没关系，努力拼搏!

每一名健儿都浴血奋战，每一名观众都热血沸腾。老师们一个个都心潮澎湃，就算都是奥斯卡影后、影帝，也无法遮掩内心的激动。

狂欢之红

王老师，平时严肃认真，不苟言笑，在学生的心目中就是一个神圣的存在。现如今，自己班的孩子大败对手，在裁判吹响最后的哨声时，立刻站起，开始了狂欢。再大声的呼喊，都无法表达这源自内心的激动，眼镜，也随着跳动，落在了地上。这样子，活像一个正直青春美好时光的花季少年。

旁边的同学，满脸疑惑与不解，平时的王老师，是这样子吗?那副模样似乎是在问自己：我是谁?我在哪?我在干什么?不过听见其他同学都在为胜利欢呼，自己也沉醉在了喜悦之中。之前的∞个疑惑，也都化作过眼云烟了。

幽蓝的失落

所有同学都身轻如燕，嘴角微微上扬，脸上洋溢着轻松愉悦的笑容，互相谈笑着，熙熙攘攘。然而，却没有一个人，注意到蹲在墙角的一抹绛紫……

背，弯了下去，头，也低沉了。眼眶已被泪水浸湿，嘴唇在不断地抽搐，时不时用手擦拭泪水。旁边的喧闹，与自已无关，而踢进的乌龙球，更令他悔不当初。面对对手的讥笑，他选择了承受，面对队友的指责，他也选择了承受。好像一切的失败，都是拜他所赐，好像一切的后果，都应由他来负责。待到四周寂静无人之时，才失声痛哭起来……

幸福协奏曲

突然，一只温暖的手轻轻抚上了他的脊背，转头一望，噢，是挚友来到了这里。两人对视片刻，他露出了欣慰的笑容，没有想到还会有人关心自己。

两人结伴同行，余晖洒在他们身上，沿着小道行走。秋风袭来，枯叶飘零，雁，南行而去……

有挚友的陪伴，真幸福……

漫漫人生路，每个人都在埋头拼命的朝前走，殊不知，有些人选择正确的位置开始努力，最终看到的是流水潺潺，十里桃花;有些人，却选错了位置，最终到达的却是万丈悬崖，全无后路。所以，人要找准自己的位置，才能做自己想要做的事，让自己的人生发光发热。否则，就如同开在道路中央的花，不但无人欣赏，反被无情践踏。

只有找准自己的位置，才能名留史册，芳华犹存。

李白，就如同佛前的一朵青莲，无论世事变迁，永远散发着芳香。他也曾风华一时，贵妃研磨，力士脱靴，何等风光!但是他没有被眼前的繁华遮住了眼，而是内心的操守不改。他仍是那个举杯邀明月，对影成三人的悠然诗人，他仍旧保持着那股“天子呼来不上船，自称臣是酒中仙”的傲骨。终究，他的三分酒气酿成了月光，七分剑气铸成了整个盛唐。千百年来，他的风华不减。

正是因为李白找准了自己的位置，没有被浮华遮掩而追逐名利，没有让浮世的铜臭浸染了他身上的莲香，才能盛名长存。

只有找准自己的位置，才能为国出力，发光发热。

在新青年运动如火如荼，国难当头的时候，鲁迅毅然放弃了学医救人，以笔锋为匕首，激烈的抨击着腐朽的政府，唤醒着浑噩的中华同胞。如果他只是行医救人，那固然可贵，但他只能湮没于历史长河。又怎会有“我以我血荐轩辕”的勇气与魄力，又怎会有在沉默中爆发的豪情‘。正是因为他找准了自己的位置，毅然拿起笔头，投向表面平静实则暗涌翻滚的社会，终成就了一位国难当头，挺身而出的爱国才子。

正是因为鲁迅找对了自己的位置，才能让自己发光发热，于历史长河中闪闪发光。

只有找准自己的位置，才能获得成功的果实。

王莽，可谓是一个治世能臣，满怀文韬武略，而且他生于一个政治混乱的年代。按道理说，乱世出英雄。王莽本可以成为辅佐昏庸皇帝走上正道的一代名将。可是他却找错了自己的位置，人心不足蛇吞象，已经坐上了大司马的位置，可谓风光无限，但他却惊自己贪婪无厌的心伸向了那至高无上的宝座。他的位置该在哪里，他却一味追求，最终等待他的只能是一场撒旦盛宴，惨死于暴民之手。

所以，人生不仅仅是一味的追求，找准自己的位置更重要。只有找准自己的位置，才能走向成功。

位置，就像我们跑步的起点一样。我们站在了正确的起点，才能奔向终点，如果连起点都没有找对，又何谈奔向终点摘得桂冠呢?所以我们每个人都要先找到自己的位置，才能确定人生的方向，只有这样，等待我们的才将是佛灵花开。

Today is the annual traditional festival in China, "Spring Festival". The morning sun was still in bed, I was like the sound of firecrackers to wake up. I get up and wash, this is my brother and sister have been wearing new clothes neat and I go to visit my grandparents and grandparents give us pay New Years call, each made a big red, I opened the door to stay, which contained a $100 bill, I like to eat honey, happy the flowers.

After eating dumplings, my mother said that I dont have to write my homework today. I can play a day with my brother and sister. I am very happy after I hear it.

The Spring Festival is the most important festival in China. On this day, every family has to eat dumplings, set off firecrackers, put up couplets and hang lanterns, which is the happiest and happiest day of the year.

俗话说“人生不如意，十有七八。”现在想起第一次的遗憾，又别是一番滋味……

在人生第一段学习生涯——幼儿园临近毕业时，在几位老师一致票选下，最终决定我们班演唱《春天在哪里》，因为最后还是要排名次，老师和我们都格外重视。

每天的音乐课，音乐老师就会带领着全班同学练唱。最初，伴着老师琴音的声音是一段跑调跑得找不到北的，零零散散的稚嫩童音，叫老师们哭笑不得。

在一天一天的练习中，我们日益融洽，慢慢地会跟着老师的拍子整整齐齐地唱出歌词，到后来，我们渐渐的会和从老师指尖流出的、调皮愉悦的旋律一般，唱的活泼欢快。

终于，在我们日复一日的努力中，迎来了毕业演唱。

在台后，看着别班或演讲，或朗诵，或舞蹈，都表演得精彩绝伦，我们不免倍感压力，一张张白嫩嫩的脸蛋都出了一层薄汗，在老师再三鼓励下我们才鼓足了勇气，登上舞台。

周围静极了，只剩我们踏上舞台的一串脆生生的脚步声，当我们齐刷刷的站好，耳畔响起熟悉的伴奏是，我紧张的心松了松。“春天在哪里呀……”轻快活泼的歌唱声在大厅响起，每一个唱词都如一只在春天里翻飞比舞的燕子，我们随着音乐的旋律轻轻盈盈地摇晃着身子，宛如在春天随风而伴舞的花朵。

在我们努力演唱完，听着耳边顿时响起的雷鸣般的掌声，心中顿时美滋滋的，自认胜券在握，满怀期待的等着结果。

“第一名大二班，第二名大六班……”当听着我们第二是，我心中的失望、遗憾不言而喻，犹如先轻飘飘地飞在九重天上，又瞬间摔入万丈深渊，霎时心底空落落，没了方向，迷茫极了。

现在想来，尽管当时那般遗憾失落，不也没有停留，到了现在吗?毕竟自已自己努力过，为了那机会奋斗过，又有什么大不了?平淡的看待结果反就释然了。

那第一次的遗憾万分也深深让我明白：每一次无论过去，还是现在的失落、遗憾，不过是为了未来走得更好，重在你如何去品味。

Travel is a good way to refresh and broaden our horizon.

旅行是消除疲劳开阔眼界的好方式。

《清明·雨》

雨，是杜牧指间的那杯杏花酒

雨，是思念路上的那点点清泪

雨，是牛背上牧童悠远如水的笛声

雨，是泪入酒盏汇聚的一江春愁

雨作酒

醉了天上人间一抹相思愁

泪如雨

期待彩虹化作时空走廊上那一次遥远的相逢

酒成潮

心中哀思如春水，向东奔流不复回

泪雨交融，以为酒

丝丝入味，扣扣连心，滴滴如血

雨，是曹娥江畔楼台相会后的诀别

雨，是断桥下情意涟涟的依依惜别

雨，是红楼深院中那份悲戚的哀怨

雨，是莺莺情绝西厢的悲凉

天上落雨，心中泪

思念向谁说

天上人间相思远

更与酒作伴

举杯邀故人，一帘相思苦

青丝白发泪成雨，天上人间共此时

一样的相思别样的情

"Rains fall heavily as qingming comes, and passers-by with lowered spirits go......" This solar term of year, we will be in my heart silently reciting the poet tu mus poem in tang dynasty, to express our ancestors thoughts.

This day, we will come to grave, placed a bouquet of flowers, burn some paper money, and wishing you so as to express our loved ones, and in my heart silently pray for them, bless them in heaven can also like us, on the other side of the happiness and lived happily. At this point, we can not help but think of them once and those days we spent together, I can remember all those pictures as if thought of these, I burst into tears.

Spring scenery greeted my eyes in the distance, the birds singing in the spring of sonata, creamy TaoGongLiuLu, golden rape, "shoots" blowing leaves fall, green shoots out long, everywhere is a piece of the scene of spring, all things recovery, which is a season full of expectations and wishes. Tomb-sweeping day, let us in such a special day, we in the memory of the past and at the same time, also want to the future full of hope, cherish life, let oneself life more meaningful, dont use such a beautiful life. Also have a new understanding of the life, let oneself every day was honest, such ability will not let myself regret, and live up to others.

“清明时节雨纷纷，路上行人欲断魂……”每年的这个节气，我们都会在心里默默地吟诵这首唐代诗人杜牧的诗句，来表达我们对先人的思念之情。

这一天，我们会来到墓前，放置一束鲜花，烧上一些纸钱，借以表达我们对亲人的思念和祝福，并在心里默默地为他们祈祷，祝福他们在天堂的那一边也能够和我们一样，幸福和快乐地生活着。此时，我们不禁会想起他们曾经和我们共同度过的那些岁月，那些画面仿佛还历历在目，想到这些，我不禁潸然泪下。

远处春的景色映入了我的眼帘，鸟儿唱着春天的奏鸣曲，漫山的桃红柳绿，遍地金黄的油菜花，“嫩芽吹叶落”，绿油油的嫩芽长了出来，到处是一片春意盎然、万物复苏的景象，这是一个充满期望和祝福的季节。清明时节，让我们在这样一个特殊的日子里，我们在缅怀过去的同时，也要对未来充满希望，珍惜生命，让自己的生命更有意义，不要虚度了这样一个美好的人生。还要对生命有一个重新的认识，让自己的每一天都充充实实的，这样才会不让自己遗憾，并且对得起他人。

你知道我们中国最古老的文字是什么吗?让我偷偷地告诉你吧，是“甲骨文”。

昨天妈妈教我认识了甲骨文。当我从电脑上第一次看到甲骨文的时候，我觉得好不可思议啊：难道这些奇怪的符号和图形是文字吗?它一点也不像我们现在使用的字，而且也不像繁体字。妈妈教我写了几个甲骨文：“日、山、水、孙、花”等等，写甲骨文的感觉象是在画画，真有趣!

我还从网上学习了一些关于甲骨文的知识，原来它又称“契文”“龟甲兽骨文”，起源于商朝晚期，在那时主要是用于占卜(就是算卦)和记事的。现代汉字就是由甲骨文演变而来的。我经常听说我们中国是历史悠久的文明古国，可是一直没有很深的体会，现在接触到了甲骨文，才真正地感受到了这一点：这可是距今有3000多年历史的文字呀!在那个时候，世界上其它的国家恐怕多数还处于蛮荒时代吧。可是那时候还没有发明纸和笔，甲骨文只能用刀刻在龟甲或者兽骨上，如果龟甲或者兽骨不够用了怎么办呢?妈妈说这就说明了当时的历史条件还很落后，直到出现了笔和纸，文化才能得到了迅速和广泛的传播。

我练习写这几个甲骨文，练得非常上劲儿，妈妈看着我的样子笑了，她问我说：“要是现在让你用甲骨文写作文，你会不会很高兴呀?”

“不!”我说，“还是我们的现代汉字好!”

是啊，虽然甲骨文很有趣，但是它已经过去了，是文物了，我还是喜欢用现在的字，我已经熟悉它们了。
