it was a sun day of the summer holiday. the weather was hot. my little brother and i decided to go to the resrvoir to swim by bike. it took us half an hour when we got there, many people were swimming. the we dived into the water……

about an hour later, suddenly somebody called: “help! help!” we were surprised to see a boy struggling in the deep water. as quickly as possible. we swam towards him and pulled him to the shore. he lost his consciousness. we sent him to the nearest hospital at once luckily, he was saved.

in the end, we were worn out, but felt happy. that day was meaningful. we did a good deed!

Living without an aim is like sailing without a compass. This philosophical

wisdom by John Ruskin, one of the greatest British writers, tells us that goal

setting is extremely important in life.

Why is goal setting so important? The main importance of goal setting is

that it provides us with direction and purpose. When we have goals, we know what

we want to achieve so that we can focus our mindson a single worthwhile target

and avoid getting distracted easily. Personal goal setting also provides us with

motivation to achieve what we want to achieve.

Goal setting is of especial significance for todays students. A study

reveals that when students set goals, they learn the importance of taking

responsibility, of minimizing excuses and of helping others. Goal setting is a

lifelong skill that first helps students succeed in school and then later in

life.

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。

我认为中秋节是中国古老的传统节日。每个人都喜欢它，因为它是一个家庭聚会。你看它被称为“中秋节”，所以通常在九月或十月。这是在农历八月十五日。现在，让我们谈谈这个有趣的节日。

首先，我想谈谈月亮问题。我非常喜欢它，因为我希望将来成为一名宇航员。那天月亮是圆的，大的，就像一块美丽的盘子挂在蓝色的布上。我看到月亮，我会记得古老的神话 - 长女和她的小兔子正在吴刚生长的树下玩耍。我也会想到阿姆斯特朗的第一次月球漫步。我也会想念台湾的朋友们岛上，澳门和国外的中国人。我知道他们也非常想念我们。

其次，我要谈谈中秋节的传统。看!中国家庭的花园里有一棵大树。所有的家庭成员都坐在树下的一张大桌子旁边露天。他们正在吃月饼，欣赏天空中的满月。这是一个家庭聚会晚餐。月饼和月亮代表了一个家庭的爱。我认为这是世界上最有价值的东西之一。

第三，这是一个非常好的机会，在中秋节做出三个愿望。我的愿望是：第一，我，未来的宇航员，有一天想去月球，和天空和星星呆在一起; 第二，我希望世界上每个人都能和家人在一起，永远地与家人分享爱意; 第三，我希望每个人的梦想都是真的。

那是我心中的中秋节。我将永远重新成员：东方或西方，家是最好的。

This years summer vacation was most enjoyable. I spent fifteen days helping my grandparents doing farm work in the countryside， where I saw mountains fields covered with green plants. Sometimes I went swimming in the river to the west of the village， the water in which was quite clear.

I kept a diary every day. Besides doing farm work， I help the children in the neighborhood with their lessons. All of them showed interest in English. They could read write wellthey could hardly understand simple English. So every day in the morning I spent about two hours helping them improve their listening spoken English. They all made great progress. Their parents all thought highly of me. I now realize that knowledge is very needed in the countryside.

在假期生活中，我学了不少东西。

放假了，弟弟妹妹没都回来过暑假了，我和他们玩陆战棋，可能因为他们小，或者是不太会打吧，他们总是输，我总赢就觉得没什么意思了，弟弟和妹妹还想玩，我心里就有一个念头，整整他们吧，我想了一会说，谁输了，打手心，他们异口同声的答应了，好像还很高兴，我们又玩了一把，他们还是输了，哎没办法，一把……两把……三把……四把……五把……他们还是一直输，哎，我打的他们手心都红了，可他们连眉头都不皱一下，他们这样，我觉得自己很自私，很坏，怎么可以这样对自己的弟弟妹妹，别的姐姐的把自己的弟弟妹妹当小乖乖一样，疼他们，保护他们，我……哎，我真是的，我不忍心的说了一句我不玩了，妹妹说;“姐姐，我知道你是心疼我们，怕我们手疼才不玩的，姐姐，我们输了，就因该人输让罚，做人要守信，包括玩游戏，我们答应你，输的要打手，不能因为你是我的姐姐就这样。

我从他们身上我知道了，做人要有骨气，守信，输了就输了，不能耍赖，遇事不能知难而退。

春节，一个我期待很久的日子，原本应该处处是一派快乐、热闹，到处充满欢声笑语的景象。但今年的春节，由于新型冠状病毒的肆虐，所以我只能待在家中，不可以出门，有事出门也要戴着口罩，而且爸爸妈妈每天都会提醒我要注意保暖，注意个人卫生。而在前线奋战的医生们，不知奋斗了多少个日夜，可是，新型冠状病毒好像丝毫没有退却的念头。在这几天中，不知有多少人被病毒夺去生命，不知有多少医生为了战“疫”不可以回家，还在与病毒抗争。

Spring Festival, a day Im looking forward to for a long time, should be

full of happiness, bustle and laughter. But this years novel coronavirus is so

rampant that I can only stay at home and wear masks when I go out, and my

parents remind me to keep warm and pay attention to personal hygiene every day.

The novel coronavirus seemed to have no intention of retreat, but doctors

struggled for many days and nights. In these days, I dont know how many people

have been killed by the virus, and how many doctors are still fighting against

the virus in order to fight the epidemic.

我不禁要问：“新型冠状病毒，你为什么选择了人类?为什么选择这样的日子降临人间?为什么要来伤害人类?”

What novel coronavirus, what do you choose to do with humans? What makes

such a date come to earth? Why do we want to harm human beings?

一天晚上，新型冠状病毒大胆地出现在我面前，扬起下巴轻蔑地一笑说：“你只看结果，不看经过，你知道我是怎么来的吗?我本来生活在动物身上，可是你们这些人类杀死了它们，还把它们吃了，还有人直播吃蝙蝠的过程。所以引发疾病的不是我，而是你们人类。而且我想告诉你，在这个世界上最可怕的不是狮子、老虎，而是你们人类，你们人类的嘴是一个无底洞，是永远也填不满的，你们人类贪婪、残忍，不停地伤害动物，难道你们就不害臊吗?”说完它转过身就走。我冲着病毒叫喊：“可人类也有善良的一面，在这个世界上好人一定比坏人多。”新型冠状病毒转过身来说：“人类的残忍是不可想象的，你们已经打破了生态平衡，直到现在还有人不知悔改!”我大声喊道：“你快走吧!人类已经知道错了，如果你再不走，人类总有一天会把你消灭的。”新型冠状病毒说：“我可以走，不过，如果人类再不知悔改，我的兄弟们还会再来的。”

One night, novel coronavirus boldly appeared before me. Chin lifted up and

smiled scornfully. "You only look at the results, but do not see the passage. Do

you know how I came? I was living on animal, but you humans killed them, ate

them, and someone else was eating live bats." So its not me that causes the

disease, its you humans. And I want to tell you that the most terrible thing in

the world is not the lion or the tiger, but you human beings. Your human mouth

is a bottomless hole, which is filled with discontent forever. You human beings

are greedy, cruel, and constantly hurting animals. Arent you ashamed? "After

saying it, turn around and walk away. I shouted at the virus, "but human beings

have a good side. There must be more good people than bad people in this world."

The novel coronavirus turned around and said, "the cruelty of human beings is

unthinkable. You have broken the ecological balance. Until now, there are still

no repentance!" I shouted, "go away!" the human race has already known that it

is wrong. If you do not go again, mankind will one day destroy you. The novel

coronavirus said, "I can go, but if the human beings do not know repentance, my

brothers will come again."

突然一阵铃声传来，我醒了，可新型冠状病毒说的话却还在我耳边回荡。我希望人类可以吸取此次的教训，善待地球，拒绝吃野生动物，也希望那些染上新型冠状病毒的人们快点好起来

Suddenly, novel coronavirus came back, but I still woke up in my ear.

Animal and novel coronavirus, I hope that people can learn from this lesson,

treat the earth well, refuse to eat wild animals, and hope that those who are

infected with new coronavirus will get better soon._ueditor_page_break_tag_

The human race has entered a completely new stage in its history,along with

the advance of the society and the increaceingly rapid economic globalization

and urbanization, which resulted in the phenomenon that we are accustomed to

living a very fast rhythm lifestyle,ignoring the Chinese traditional

culture.

It is universally acknowledged that Chinese culture has a history of more

than two thousand years, which once had great influence on the world, such as

Japan, South Korea and other Asian and European countries. As one of the four

ancient civilizations,China creates many splendid cultures,such as the four

ancient Chinese inventions,which benefited human society in the history.

Although China risks copying the Western lifestyle’s worst aspects,

especially of unhealthy eating and drinking,Which once gave rise to many

problems.Fortunately,Chinese begin to realize the importance of Chinese

traditional culture.Such examples might be given easily,Chinese traditional

culture was added into our CET4 and CET6 ,which help us get hold of it

better.

I want to introduce the book is Hemingways the old man and the sea, I think this book is very worth a look, especially in the ownership of the "tough guy" spirit is worth us to learn.

The old man and the sea is the background of the story leaves of Cuba in the . Protagonist is an old fisherman San Diego in a supporting role is a named manolins child. The old man and the sea is written by an old fisherman fishing in the sea for three days and three nights. Old man in the face of many difficulties, life, other fishermen laugh at, only a small boy to send him food. The old man decided to go to fisherman who has never been to the deep sea fishing, to prove your ability and courage. At sea, the old man caught a salmon, but the fish is too big, the old man made countless efforts finally put the fish in the boat, because of that, that caused the tragedy, the fishs blood attracted many shark, the old man was determined, "fight with them, Ill talk to them all to death" finally, went back to the shore, the old man in the boat only strapped to her bones.

"People are not born for defeat, a man can be destroyed, but cant defeat". Lonely old fisherman San Diego resolute character, superb fishing technique, etc. The outline of his article is not only a tough guy, also saw a variety of different from him, let the person ponder: self-confident, brave, optimistic, simple, lonely, and wise. Old fisherman of this spirit is worth us to learn, to mining. The children from the age of five with the old fishing boat learning, the childs personality traits from another side, reflect the old mans character, showed that kind of not afraid of hard, have the courage to overcome difficulties of character; Child is small, only a few years old, but it doesnt show very childish; Learned from the old man is not only the skill of fishing, and self-esteem self-improvement of the spirit, and learn to understand the hardships of life with the mans responsibility. Tender shoulder has already accustomed to the morning go out fishing life of hone, even "walk still dozing", still said "this consider as what, a man have to like this." Fist-pumping, be born words fully demonstrates the sound always tough spirit. This spirit is worth us to learn, also let I was moved very much.

To what struck me most is the spirit, the old fisherman manolin kid the sort of understand, in life, in learning, or in the later work, when we encounter unprecedented hardships and setbacks, we should consider the alone on the sea and unable to fight the "tough guy" old fisherman, the children of that kind of sensible and self-esteem self-improvement, like him after the life of hone. In this way, we will find that in fact there are a lot of difficulties and not imagined so invincible. If we are to study the spirit, and has the "tough guy" spirit, inspire our biggest potential, can overcome we think it is impossible to overcome the difficulties.

Mom said, chickens are responsible! Its very hard. I nodded and thought, "Im sure I can feed the chicken. You can rest assured." So my day as a chicken mother started??

The first day of chickens, my interest is quite thick. I held the feed in my hand, and chicks scrambled for fear of catching food. They pecked at the feed with strong force, and pecked at my hand, which was also painful and itchy. I gently stroked their hair, they are happy to call several voice ran away, I looked at the negative Pidianpidian figure can not help cant help laughing.

Its raining, so its very scared, shivering all over, these silly chickens! I dont know how to take shelter from the rain, and its been raining all the time.

The second day I get up and see, the chicken died one, I am very sad, I feel sorry for the chicken, it should be more careful to take care of the chicken. I buried the chicken in the soil with an apology.

My day as a chicken mother is over. I have to think for them every day and eat the chicken before I eat them. I feel very hard. I thought, for a few days the chicken is so tired, the mother put up our work as can be imagined. I have a sincere respect for my mother in my heart.

children lucky money on New Years eve, seems to be a meaning of exorcism

disaster, mother said to put "lucky money" in under the pillow, pillow to sleep

on it. I really do as this way, because it is very new.

I also looked at the Spring Festival gala, the deepest memory is the

"hello, I am leave." "Why? Why is this?" Whenever I say this, mom and dad

laughed, because I copy too like said.

China has the history of more than 5,000 years. Many foreign people are

attracted by this big old country. They come here and want to know about the

traditional culture. However, Chinese young people dont show much interest in

the old culture, instead they chase the fashion and some even abandon the

precious culture. For example, paper cutting, one of the excellent arts that is

inherited by our ancestors. Many foreign media speak highly of this great

handicraft and they are astonished by the wisdom of Chinese people. I have seen

this art when I stay in my hometown. Only few old people can do it. They just

take it for killing time. Paper cutting is like the old fashion and is forgotten

by the young generation. The media should report more positive information about

the traditional culture to inspire the young people to learn.

The Culture of China is home to one of the worlds oldest and most complex

civilizations. China boasts a history rich in over 5,000 years of artistic,

philosophical, political, and scientific advancement. Though regional

differences provide a sense of diversity, commonalities in language and religion

connect a culture distinguished by such significant contributions such as

Confucianism and Taoism. Confucianism was the official philosophy throughout

most of Imperial Chinas history and strongly influenced other countries in East

Asia. Mastery of Confucian texts provided the primary criterion for entry into

the imperial bureaucracy.

With the rise of Western economic and military power beginning in the

mid-19th century, Western systems of social and political organization gained

adherents in China. Some of these would-be reformers rejected Chinas cultural

legacy, while others sought to combine the strengths of Chinese and Western

cultures.

China is a unified nation consisting of many different ethnic groups.

Fifty-six different ethnic groups make up the great Chinese national family.

Because the Han people accounts for more than ninety percent of Chinas

population, the remaining fifty-five groups are generally referred to as "ethnic

minorities." Next to the majority Han, the Mongolian, Hui, Tibetan, and Uygur

peoples comprise the largest ethnic groups. Although Chinas ethnic minorities

do not account for a large portion of the population, they are distributed over

a vast area, residing in every corner of China.

Particularly since the implementation of Chinas opening and reform policy,

the central government has increased investment in minority areas and

accelerated their opening to the outside world. This has resulted in an upsurge

of economic development in these areas. Each of Chinas ethnic minority groups

possesses a distinctive culture. The Chinese government respects minority

customs, and works to preserve, study, and collate the cultural artifacts of

Chinas ethnic minority groups. The government vigorously supports the

development of minority culture and the training of minority cultural workers,

and fosters the development of traditional minority medicine.

The relation among Chinas ethnic groups can be described as "overall

integration, local concentration, mutual interaction." Concentrations of ethnic

minorities reside within predominantly Han areas, and the Han people also reside

in minority areas, indicating that there has been extensive exchanges among

Chinas ethnic groups since ancient times. With the development of the market

economy, interaction among ethnic groups has become even more active in the

areas of government, economics, culture, daily life, and marriage. Linked by

interdependence, mutual assistance, and joint development, their common goals

and interests creating a deep sense of solidarity, Chinas ethnic groups

resemble a great national family, together building Chinese civilization.
