台风“菲特”，你为我们带来了各种滋味！

悲

10月7号台风“菲特”登陆宁波，就在那天，雨突然下了起来，像泼，像倒，雨咆哮起来，像千军万马飞奔而来，来势汹涌，雨就这样不停地下着。我家住在宋严王，这个村子地势低，台风过后，河水就漫上来了，到处汪洋一片，因我家刚好处在这村子的正中央，地势还好，所以，没被水给淹没，真庆幸。可那些被水淹没的家庭呢，家人无处安居，生活用品全部浸湿，没有电，无法正常生活。看到灾民脸上愁云密布，我也很难过。

到了10月8号，一大清早，大水的脚步还是向我们家悄无声息地走来了。记得当时我刚从梦中清醒，家里的水已经大驾光临了，水漫进我家，我们家任何预防准备都没做，真是措手不及，只能手忙脚乱了好一阵，可还是惨不忍睹，桌椅浮起来了，拖鞋浮起来了，米袋子涨起来了……这台风太可恨了。

乐

四处一片汪洋，台风“菲特”也带来了我们孩子们的乐园。我出于好奇，就约上几个小伙伴们去探探水的深浅，突然来了一辆自行车，水花四溅，水波飞出一条弧度飞射到了身上，我们全然不顾，乐在其中，继续摸索着地向前走着。发现，有的地方水深能达到我的大腿，有的水都深到大腿顶上，我们都快成一叶扁舟了。突然，不知谁叫起来，“有鱼！”大家一看，深水里面果然有小鱼欢快地游着，我们出于好奇，屛息凝视，然后一个猛子抓了一条小鱼，心想，调皮的小鱼呀，你一定是偷偷溜出来玩的吧。这时，一个小伙伴因抓鱼动作太猛，一不小心，掉进了水里，摔了个落汤鸡，嘻嘻哈哈……笑声荡漾开来。于是，我们的探索只好暂停，急匆匆地送她回去换衣服。***妈数落着她，又转头感谢我们，可她还偷着乐。这才发现，我们每个人都湿淋淋的了，但我们依然快活，因为这水带给我们从未有过的蹚水抓鱼乐。

暖

正当我往回家路上赶时，看见了两位年过花甲的老爷爷老奶奶，一位白发苍苍的老爷爷吃力地踏着三轮车缓缓地驶过，三轮车上坐着一位满面布满皱纹的老奶奶，脸上绽开菊花瓣般的笑容。这时，遇到水深处，车过不去，而他们年纪大了，二人纵然用尽全身力气还是没有推过去。这时，一位年轻人看见了，匆匆跑了过去，只见那位年轻人眉目清秀，上穿一件黑色短袖，下着一条深色短裤，衣着整齐而又朴素。这小伙子身手敏捷，用力一推，车上去了。老爷爷老奶奶脸上露出满意的微笑，连声道谢，小伙子微微一笑，关心地说：“这条路水很深，你们可以朝菜场旁的路走。我刚探过路，水浅”。虽然湿漉漉的我突然不觉得冷了，因为这里散发着一丝丝温暖的味道。

台风“菲特”有我一生不能抹去的记忆！

Every one faces the problem of choosing an occupation after graduation from college or university, which plays a vital role in his life. An appropriate occupation makes a man work with zest and vigor, as well as contribute to his country.

To make a wise choice, two important things should be taken into consideration. One is the interest, the other, the demands of people and society. Only if the two aspects are connected, can a man show his talent and ability to the best advantage. If the two conflict, the former should be under the latter, for the peoples interests are more important than the individuals.

In regard to my choice in the future, I am fond of learning foreign languages; what is more, with the implementation of the Open-Door Policy, exchange between home and abroad in economy and culture has been growing significantly, thus Im determined to be a qualified interpreter.

Li Wenzhu

Christmas arouses increasing attention year by year in China. Christmas cards become popular with students. People hold Christmas parties and exchange Christmas girts. A lot or TV and radio programs about Christmas are on. Meanwhile the Spring Festival is less appealing （有吸引力的）to youngsters. Thus some people wonder whether Christmas will replace the Spring Festival.

This worry is fairly unnecessary. Why ？One reason lies that Christmas only affects Christians，college students and joint-venture （合资企业）workers. Another reason is that Christmas is mostly celebrated in cities. Few people in countryside show extreme interest in this exotic（带有异国情调的）festival. By contrast，the Spring Festival is the most influential traditional festival in every family.

I think，it is natural that with increasing exchanges with the West，a lot of Western holidays have been gradually introduced into China. For us Chinese we should never neglect or even discard our own traditional festivals. For centuries Chinese have observed this traditional holiday to welcome the beginning of a new year. And we will treasure the Spring Festival forever.

Our family enjoyed a wonderful New Years evening family dinner because it is seldom to get so many relatives to get together.My uncle,aunt and cousin,my best friend,came and had dinner with us.It took almost whole afternoon to prepare the dishes.Of course,that is a chance to show my mom and my aunts cooking skill.We also try to do something to help them,but,what we got was "going to play".It is happy for me to hear that rather than "go to do your homework".The evening dinner is so good,everyone enjoyed and aet overload to their stomach.So wonderful dinner,so wonderful new year.

Nowadays,more and more families choose to have the dinner on New Year’s Eve in restaurants.Though this choice doesn’t follow our tradition,I think it’s good and should be encouraged.

First,it’s obviously more convenient to do so.The process of preparing a home-made New Year’s Eve dinner is not only hard but also annoying.People have to buy food several days before the festival and spend a long time cooking all sorts of dishes.Now,just pick up the telephone and reserve a table.Everything will be well arranged by the restaurant.

Second,it still create a warm atmosphere by getting the family united,which is the true purpose of the dinner.In the restaurant,you celebrate the New Year and share your happiness with other families and usually can enjoy special performances or activities,organized by the owner of the restaurant.

To make a conclusion,having the dinner on New Year’s Eve outside shows a change in people’s thoughts on traditions and seems to be a wise,nice and exciting idea.

There is a trend that more and more families have their dinner on New Year’s Eve in the restaurant.Although it is more convenient,it doesn’t seem to be a pleasure thing for me.

Firstly,the restaurants are too crowded.Owing to this,we cannot talk freely.In addition,the sense of harmony cannot be felt by the family members.

Secondly,it may cost us a big sum of money which we can save by having the dinner in our own families.The whole family’s preparation for the dinner is also a process of enjoying according to my view.

In a word,it is not a good idea to have New Year’s Eve dinner in the restaurant.Home dinner makes a happy New Year.

Today is June 20th is Fathers Day, Dad is a great name, he carries the

responsibility of the family, and I have grown up on Dads shoulders for as long

as I can remember.

I remember that when I was a child, I had a high fever, and my father

hurriedly carried me to the hospital. The doctor said, "Its fine, just get an

injection..." I fell asleep and heard this vaguely.

In the evening, my father called me up and said, "Come on, drink the

medicine before going to bed." I took a sip, it was bitter, and I said I dont

want to drink it, so my father brought me a piece of candy and said, "You After

you drink the medicine, I will give you the sugar." At that time, I didnt

understand, so I thought sugar was the best thing, so I drank the medicine, put

the sugar in my mouth, and then fell asleep...

In the middle of the night, I vaguely felt a hand touching my forehead, I

opened my eyes slightly, and saw that my father was sitting on the edge of my

bed, gently touching my head, I turned around and lay on the bed, Tears flowed

down.

Today is Fathers Day. My sister bought a belt for my uncle. After I saw

it, I lowered my head and didnt know how to face my father, but my father

smiled at me and said, "Dad doesnt need any gifts, as long as you eat more and

gain weight. , dont be like a bean sprout, its the best gift for Dad." Dad,

you are the best dad in the world, Dad, I love you! Happy Fathers Day!

The summer vacation is ing。 I will do my homework first so I am going to do

housework。 I am going to take a piano class。 My parents and I will go to Hainan

当你在太阳能热水下沐浴时，你不开心吗？当你在节能灯下学习时，你一定也很舒适吧？当你帮助家长提着布袋购物篮走出超市时，你肯定觉得自己也成了一个有环保责任心的成熟小公民啦！

当然，也许你已经习以为常了，毕竟社会发展到今天，随着科技的不断创新，我们的生活也愈加精彩、舒适、时尚、文明，其中，节能环保也突显时代特色，不知不觉的，我们越来越多的人在消费生活、享受时尚的同时也扮演了节能环保的角色。

紫气东来满眼春

今年暑假，我们一家来到乡下姑妈家，看到他们做饭、照明、洗浴都用上了沼气。

看到姑妈两口为张罗建沼气池而疲惫却快慰的笑脸，我们都惊叹这两口作为普通农民的睿智眼光。

原来姑妈家办了一个养猪场，但因为用电、环卫等系列问题困扰，他们一度不得开心。有一天，仅有初中水平的姑妈瞥见电视里关于沼气既节能又环保的介绍后，也突发奇想：何不建个沼气池呢？于是夫妻俩一拍即合，踏破铁鞋查资料，三进城里求技术，终于在历经千辛万苦后玉成其事。

望着因建了沼气池而整洁焕然一新的养猪场，曾对生态环境有悲观情绪的爸爸这时也不由得增加了信心：“看来节能环保在咱农村还真是有盼头呢！”

更令我们欣慰的是：现在姑妈所在村庄的许多村民也开始跃跃欲试，筹建沼气池……

“点点滴滴”都是爱

众所周知，水是生命之源，也更有“再不珍惜水资源，地球上最后一滴水将是人类的眼泪”这样的话警示世人。

应该说，在节水方面，我们家做的较早，也很有效果。刷牙时，我们只倒刚好够用的水，平时卫生间总摆放着一只集水用的大塑料桶，每次洗脸、洗手、洗脚的水都会被倒入这只大水桶中收集起来，用来冲洗马桶；洗菜、淘米的水自然用来浇花。这种一水多用的方式貌似微不足道，其实可以省下不少水。

更有时，我和爸爸爱在使用水龙头、冲洗卫生器具上动脑筋，比如在马桶水箱里放入砖块，这样冲洗时，一次出水量少些，更节水。

热也好，冷也好，适“度”最好

现在一般家庭都用上了空调，怕冷惧热似乎已成了现代人的通病。我们小区的李大伯膀大腰圆，一到炎热盛夏，就“憋”得慌啊！可邻居们到他家串门做客，都在笑他“抠门”——空调安装在家，总是很少自己用，常常拿把芭蕉扇吧嗒吧嗒地扇着，只有来了客人才打开空调，还将空调温度设在26度，不过你看他倒是振振有词：这样也是顾国家大局省电节能啊！你要说我抠，我怎么又是好烟好茶招待你呀！

你看，李大伯就是这样一个有觉悟的人，佩服！

万紫千红总是春

“一枝独秀不是春”，节能减排也不是有限于个人或些许人的事，而是社会性、群众性的自我觉悟、自我行动。身为城关六小的学生，我为母校在开展节能环保活动方面的做法而自豪。

学校平时充分利用壁橱窗、黑板报、广播、班会、演讲等多种形式对学生进行节能环保教育，让节能观念深入师生之心。如今的校园整洁漂亮不说，早起晨读的学生在校内外就餐少了许多使用一次性餐具的不良现象。天天与书本笔纸打交道的我们似乎都已觉悟到了这就是资源哪，不珍惜，不节约，随意丢弃尚未使用完的纸张、笔头就是最大的浪费，如今书本循环使用也在全校全面实施开了。节能环保在我校正蔚然成风。

你、我、他同住一个地球村，我们都是村中的一员，我们当然反对盲目追求经济发展而不顾及生态的做法。节能减排，保护资源，捍卫地球家园，是每个人义不容辞的责任。从我做起，从眼前开始，让诸如节约一滴水、一度电、拒用一次性方便袋等节能环保实践活动真正行之有效地开展进行下去，当是人类的幸事！

Hello: My name is **,I like sports very much.I am good at swimming.I also like riging a bike.Because my home is far from school,I ride to school everyday.I admire my English teacher very much!

A different people have different ideas. I think the most important thing for me is having a good relationship with my family members and my friends.

暑假，顾名思义，就是夏天的假期。放暑假就是为了让孩子们避免中暑，还有一点就是为了让忙了一学期的孩子们有一段休息玩耍的时间。

有的孩子暑假非常开心，他们不仅完成了暑假作业，还拥有自己的娱乐时间。但有的孩子的暑假全被作业与课外班填的充实无比。

我的暑假是在老家度过的，我的家乡是张家口。风景非常好看，空气很清新，几乎没有杂质，蓝蓝的天空中飘着白云。但是这儿有一个弊病——没有阴霾，紫外线非常强，不一会就晒黑了，相同的，夜晚的月光也非常明亮。一望无际的草原，一阵阵清风扑面而来，舒服极了。

我的姥姥、姥爷和爷爷、奶奶都住在张家口的坝上地区，坝上要比坝下的市区更美丽，也更凉爽，一年四季都是长裤，在夏天的夜里甚至需要盖薄棉被，而且坝上的家家户户几乎都是农村人，都住的小平房或者土房。

妈妈和我先去了姥姥家。姥姥家同样住的也是土房，本就不大的小院里有一大半都种着一些各种果树和蔬菜，有西红柿、黄瓜、豌豆角、大葱、杏……这些自家种的蔬果没有使用一点化肥，非常健康。而姥姥家自家养的鸡生的鸡蛋在锅里一打，金黄金黄的，不仅鲜嫩好吃，还非常营养。姥姥家还养了一头猪，打算养到过年，宰了吃肉，那肉同样也是健康猪肉，割一小放进锅里，不一会就一直往外冒油，一锅猪肉有一半化成了油，剩下的肉很是美味。这可不像市场上的注水肉，一煮一锅水。姥姥家还养了一条雄壮的看门狗，狗的年龄不大，但很强壮健康，皮毛油亮油亮的。姥姥家还有一只可爱的小猫，它能捉老鼠，还爱在窗台上捉苍蝇。

在这农村里，条件比较落后，家家户户都还睡在大炕上，炕的作用可大了，人们吃饭时坐在炕上，在炕上睡觉……用的烧火工具是一种往炉里添柴，上面有口大锅，是固定的，下面是人力运动，一个人坐在椅子上右手拉一个把手烧火，烟从烟囱里升上天空，一部分热量会传到大炕下，使大炕热乎乎的。大多数电视都是用院中的一个巨大的接收器来收到信号，一旦遇到下雨天就不能看电视。家家户户有电脑的少的可怜，即使有了电脑也基本不会用，由于曾经的封建社会统治时期，导致现在许多村民不识字。

我先在石家庄将作业抄在纸条上，然后回老家劳逸合作，上午写作业，下午出去活动，既能强健身体，又不耽误作业。还能与动物0距离接触，多么美妙的暑假生活啊！

Dear Sue,

I’m Li Hua, one of your students in China. It’s almost a month since you

left us. We all miss you and are very grateful for what you did for us.

We are busy as usual. We had an English speech contest the other day. I won

the first prize! This again reminds me of all your kind help. Do you still

remember the trees we planted together on the hill behind the school? Yesterday,

we went there and watered them. The tree you planted yourself is growing well,

and the whole class decided to name it Sue Wood. Will you come back to see Sue

Wood?

How is everything with you lately? We hope to know more about you and your

American students. Hope to keep in close touch.

All the best.

Yours，

Li Hua

雅思阅读考试文章来源于国外原版的期刊或杂志，话题覆盖面广，科技，自然，环保，社会，文化，工作，生物，地理等无不涉及，所以遇到生词在情理之中。但一部分烤鸭遇到生词后就信心全失，慌乱至极，打破了自己原有的阅读节奏和速度，做题时也因为生词被卡壳，结果题目不仅没有解出，还影响了后面的做题速度和时间，可谓“一发动而迁全身”。对此，专家认为，生词的出现在所难免，只要大家有基本的词汇量，完全可以将生词的问题逐一击破。

A. 有时候生词属于比较专业的词汇，它们的出现不是为了考察考生的词汇量，更多的是检阅大家的应变和判断能力。尤其在题目中出现的所谓生词，更是可以坏事变好事，成为考生定位答案的线索词。比如：在剑桥7 “Why pagodas dont fall

down”一文，5-10题的分类题中第6题“tiles on eaves”，很可能考生在三个单词中有两个都不认识，这时候如何是好呢?首先，先观察这两个生词的词性。在介词“on”的前后，且分别加了“s”, 可以判断是名词。在这篇建筑类的文章中论及我们不认识的名词，想必不是日常词汇，所以完全可以把“tiles”和“eaves”作为定位词去原文寻找答案。

B. 有时候生词的含义可以在上下文中直接得到。在雅思阅读文章时遇到的生词，有相当一部分的含义可以通过多种猜测单词的方法得到，所以，在生词的周围或上下文寻找其解释不失为有效途径。

var cpro_psid ="u2572954"; var cpro_pswidth =966; var cpro_psheight =120;

例如，剑桥4的文章“How much higher? How much

faster?”中，有这样一个句子：“One of the most important newmethodologies is biomechanics, the study of the body in

motion.” “biomechanics”这个单词从构词法上看，我们只能够知道其和生物有关，此时，看后面的同位语部分就能很好的帮我们解释这个词的意思，直接且易懂，即对身体在运动状态下的研究。

Hello, everyone. I’m very happy to stand here to introduce myself. 大家好，很高心站在这里介绍我自己。

My name is Wang Xiaoming. I’m 14 years old, from Zhen Jiang Zhong Shan Road Primary School. It’s a beautiful school, and I love it very much.  我叫XXX。今年14岁。我来自镇江中山路小学，这是一所美丽的学校，我很喜欢它。

I’m a happy and talented boy. I like to make friends with others, and I get on well with my classmates. Basketball is my favorite sport. I always play basketball in my spare time. Through this game, I get many benefits.  我是一个快乐、聪明的男生。我喜欢交朋友，并且我和班上同学相处的很好。篮球是我最喜欢的运动，我经常在空余时间去打篮球。通过这项游戏，我获得了很多有益的东西。

At school, I study Chinese, Math, English, History, and so on. I like all of them. And I’m doing well in my study. I’m interested in learning English very much. I believe that I will do well in future. I won’t let you down.  在学校，我学了语文、数学、英语、历史等课程。我很喜欢这些可能，并且好好学习它们。我很有兴趣学习英语，并且我相信我能学好它。我不会让你失望的。

Thank you for your listening. 感谢您的聆听

In my impression, I dont seem to have ever received a Christmas gift. But this year I have received several pieces of Christmas gifts, gifts received the moment, indescribably happy!

It happened on Christmas day, I came to the school with the joyful mood, suddenly found his pocket which turned out to have a lot of lessons for Christmas, I sat on the seat quickly put out gifts found above the names of many students, I am excited golden beans are falling out, everyone looked at me and said "Zhao Runze, dont cry. This is a token of our ah! Again, you have to go, we are not allowed to send you ah (in fact, forget to tell you, I actually have to transfer)! We dont have anything to send you. Its Christmas day, and well have to give me a Christmas gift. Haha, dont be sad, our school will always welcome you! " I didnt cry when I heard them.

The second day I was going, and when I went, everyone was sending me off, and some of my good classmates were crying. I dont think Im crying too. They cry and comfort me. I think this is the best Christmas gift!

Now, I am learning in the new school, the new school atmosphere and the new environment. My classmates are treating me very well. I hope to write this composition so that my former classmates can see it. I want to tell them, "I miss you!"

My father has a good friend, and I called him uncle Li. He works in a

college and teaches literature. Uncle Li is a gentleman, the way he talks and

walks shows that he has received good education. I like to discuss movies with

him. He always can give me profound ideas. No matter where he is, people respect

him a lot. I admire uncle Li so much. I wish someday I could be the person like

him. If we want others to show respect, then we need to make ourselves the

adorable persons. The rude people will never receive respect. Uncle Li wins

everybodys love by his good manner.
