My favorite holiday has a lot of, have tomb sweeping day, Dragon Boat Festival, childrens day, the Mid-Autumn festival, but my favorite is the Spring Festival.

"Clicks" firecrackers on New Years eve, the street, the sky flashing dazzling spark, every household lights, the window of golden yellow, yellow-green, in combustion and off gradually, flowers, seemed to open the TV at the same time, in the play the wonderful show.

I stood on the sixth floor of the balcony, look, the New Years eve the night sky is bright, many colorful fireworks shining in the sky, sometimes like to live the day cage with, often is exploded here, before falling again raised a few, and then blasted, rise again... Some fireworks at lightning speed, ten 10 to move in the air, pour down, as if the next beautiful meteor shower, is like a big waterfall, also really a little "plunges three thousand feet" feeling! My mood is particularly bright and clear, this is "firecracker sound bowed out, every family to meet the New Year".

我喜欢的节日有很多，有清明节、有端午节、有儿童节、有中秋节，但我最喜欢的就是春节了。

除夕夜，街上“劈劈啪啪”的鞭炮声接连不断，空中闪烁着耀眼的火花，家家户户灯火通明，金黄色、黄绿色的窗户，在忽明忽暗、忽燃忽灭花中，好象同时打开的电视机，在播放精彩的节目。

我站在六楼的阳台上，放眼望去，除夕夜晚的天空格外亮，许多色彩缤纷的烟花在天空中闪亮着，有的时候好像还要把天笼照住似的，常常是这里炸开了，还没等落下就又升起了几个，然后再炸开、再升起……有的烟花以闪电般的速度，十个十个的往上蹿，在空中炸开，倾泻而下，好像在下一场美丽的流星雨，又好似一条大瀑布，还真有点“飞流直下三千尺”的感觉呢!我的心情格外爽朗，这真是“爆竹声声辞旧岁，家家户户迎新春”。

Why this years winter always gray, the sky is white MCE blocked by air? "My father told me that the winter of this year because of the bad air quality formed a typical" haze weather." Haze weather "because many tiny floating in the air even the naked eye cant see the small particles, to our daily life and travel caused serious problems. In order to reduce air pollution and improve air quality, reduce the fog haze, let us start from oneself, starts from the Spring Festival, with practical action to promote green environmental protection idea, put a bunch of whip less, less pollution, less a piece of haze, to add a bit blue sky, let us happy life under the blue sky white clouds. Here, I issued initiative, the Spring Festival this year, lets do one" abandoned ", dont set off firecrackers, away from the haze, have the green years.

Haze weather we how to prevent this?

A, dont come out activities in the home, tell the old man, will know how to protect their children.

In haze weather, reduce travel, travel time to wear a mask, to avoid the small particles in the air in the lungs.

Third, in haze weather, dont open the window ventilation at home.

Haze weather, we not only should be "blowout", but also can "attack" :

One, in the Spring Festival, first of all, I do not set off firecrackers, and discourage their relatives and friends dont smoke, dont set off firecrackers.

Second, green travel, as far as possible with the bike instead of walking, use less cars, emit no exhaust and dont blow up the road dust.

Third, save electricity, save energy and chemical plant to improve the processing ability of emissions.

More than four, planting green plants, to purify the environment.

为什么今年的冬天总是灰蒙蒙的一片，天空被白乎乎的空气遮挡住?”爸爸告诉我，今年的冬天因为空气质量不好，形成了典型的“雾霾天气”。“雾霾天气”是因为空气中漂浮着很多细小的连肉眼都看不清的小颗粒而造成的，给我们的日常生活和出行造成严重困扰。为了减少空气污染，提高空气质量，减少雾霾，让我们从自己做起，从这个春节做起，用实际行动来倡导绿色环保理念，少放一串鞭，少一点污染，少一片雾霾，给天空增添一抹蓝，让我们在蓝天白云下幸福生活。在此，我发出倡议，今年春节，我们来做一回“弃炮族”，不放鞭炮，远离雾霾，过个环保年。

雾霾天气我们该如何预防呢?

一、在家不要出来活动，告诉老人、小孩要懂得保护自己。

二、在雾霾天气里，减少出行，出行的时候要带上口罩，避免将空气中的微小颗粒吸入肺中。

三、在雾霾天气里，在家不要开窗换气。

雾霾天气里，我们不但要会“防”，还要能“攻”：

一、新春佳节里，首先我要做到不放鞭炮，并且劝阻亲朋好友不吸烟、不放鞭炮。

二、尽量绿色出行，用自行车代步，少用汽车，不排放尾气，不吹起公路灰尘。

三、节约用电，节约能源，化工厂要提高排放废气的处理能力。

四、多种植绿色植物，净化环境。

Recent within a week, there is "anomalies" in our city haze. Peoples life has been affected by the smog. Around when I was a student, a grey, what also cant see. This Saturday, my father sent me to guzheng lessons, is coming, at that time, I didnt see the tall buildings around, thought dad lost!

General travelling is like pure milk, milk white, and gray haze is the, there are some bulbs. I am fog, haze do not understand, so today I have checked the online. Oh, it was so, fog is a large number of suspended in the air near the ground aerosol system composed of small water droplets or ice crystals, is the product of water vapor condensation in the air near the ground layer. The existence of the fog can reduce air transparency, make the deterioration of visibility, if the target level of visibility down to 1000 meters, will be suspended in water vapor condensation in the air near the ground like now known as the fog weather.

Haze also calls the ash haze, dust in the air, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, organic hydrocarbon particles such as atmospheric turbidity, blurry vision and led to the deterioration of visibility. With the deterioration of air quality, haze weather phenomenon appears, harm. Recently the haze weather phenomenon in many regions are merged into mist as a severe weather warning forecast together. Collectively referred to as "haze weather".

Fog can make the person "relapse", because of the fog haze contains bacteria, viruses and dust pollution, coupled with artificially industrial waste gas, automobile exhaust and so on, seriously affecting peoples health. Now, some of the students in our class has a bad cold, does everything listless, a sickly appearance. So you must protect have holes in the earth, protect the environment, starts from me, let the blue sky white clouds accompany us forever!

最近一星期内，我们城市里出现了“异常情况”——雾霾。雾霾严重影响了居民的生活。在我上学时，周围灰蒙蒙，什么也看不清。这个星期六，爸爸送我去上古筝课，快到了，当时我没有看到周围的高楼大厦，还以为爸爸开错路哩!

一般雾都是跟纯牛奶一样，是乳白色的，而霾是灰色的，还有点儿呛鼻。我对雾，霾并不了解，所以我今天特意上网查了一下。哦，原来是这样啊，雾是有大量悬浮在近地面空气中的微小水滴或冰晶组成的气溶胶系统，是近地面层空气中水汽凝结的产物。雾的存在会降低空气透明度，使能见度恶化，如果目标物的水平能见度降低到1000米以内，就将悬浮在近地面空气中水汽凝结物的天气现像称为雾。

霾也称灰霾，空气中的灰尘，硫酸，硝酸，有机碳氢化合物等粒子使大气混浊，视野模糊并导致能见度恶化。随着空气质量的恶化，阴霾天气现象出现增多，危害加重。近期我国不少地区把阴霾天气现象并入雾一起作为灾害性天气预警预报。统称为“雾霾天气”。

雾霾能使人“旧病复发”，因为雾霾里包含细菌，灰尘和病毒等污染物，再加上人为地工业废气，汽车尾气等，严重影响人们的身体健康。现在，我们班里的一些同学得了重感冒，做什么事都无精打采，一副病怏怏的样子。所以大家一定要保护已经千疮百孔的地球啊，保护环境，从我做起，让蓝天白云永远陪伴着我们!

To have my parents, surely you must will be proud of.

I remember in fifth grade one afternoon ahead of the final exam last semester, I suddenly got a strange disease, my leg pain not only can walk, and the body appeared purple dots. Then the doctor says is called; allergic purpura. ,

So the teacher call the parents, when parents know I sick they stunned. They were immediately drove to the school. Saw I inquired about the concrete, the mother then asked his father whats the matter with me? Because my father is a rural doctor. Said her father; Im not sure, or go to the township hospitals. kingdom in township hospitals, township hospital doctors said, "didnt check me the instrument of the disease. But under parents and I drove to the county womens and childrens hospital. But unfortunately county maternal and child hospital outpatient service building of doctors has been off work, can only to the inpatient to see a doctor on the third floor. But, on the third floor and there is no elevator to the inpatient, and I can walk. Random back me up, so my father mother aside to shield, so step by step to go see a doctor, so the parents back and forth several times, but the two of them to the beginning to end without a complaint, the result is checked I have allergic purpura. Then give me to see the doctor the doctor gave me some medicine, under the care of parents, I dont have all the more in a few days.

This is just I grew up in a small thing, but let me realized that candle no love, I also because there are so proud parents.

能有我的这样的父母，想必你们一定也会自豪的。

我记得在五年级上学期 期末考试前夕 的一个下午，我突然得了一个奇怪的病 ，我的腿不仅疼痛难忍走不成路，而且全身出现了紫色的小点点。后来医生说是一种名叫;‘过敏性紫癜’的病。‘，

于是老师 打电话通知了父母，当父母知道 我得病了 他们惊呆了。他们二人 便立即驾车来到了学校。见了我便 询问了具体的情况，母亲随后又问父亲我得了什么病?因为父亲是一名乡村医生。父亲说;’我拿不准，还是去乡医院吧。’谁料到了乡医院，乡医院的医生说：“没有检查我这种病的仪器”。无奈之下父母二人和我又驱车去了县妇幼医院。但是又不凑巧县妇幼院的门诊楼的医生已经下班了，只能到住院部的三楼去就诊。但是，去住院部的三楼又没有电梯，我又走不成路。所以爸爸随机背上了我，母亲在一旁护着，就这样一步一步地去就诊了，就这样的情景父母二人来回好几次，但他们二人至始至终没有一句怨言，结果经过检查我得是过敏性紫癜。后来给我看病的医生给我开了一些药，在父母的精心呵护下我没过几天就全愈了。

这只是我成长中的一件小事，却让我体会到了那份烛一无二的爱，我也因为有这样的父母而自豪。

Dear Kate,

This term I moved to a new house and studied in a new school. But I always

And then,I felt under too much pressure and very tired. My parents were also sad

with me. When my classmates knew this thing,she helped me,and gave me some

advice. Later,I thought I can be better next time.

一切对我来说是陌生的,所以我不能更好的学习。在第一个测试中我感到紧张。我得到糟糕的成绩,我感到非常难过。老师对我大吼大叫。然后,我感到太多的压力和很累。我的父母和我也难过。当我的同学知道这件事,她帮助了我,给了我一些建议。之后,我想我可以更好的下一次。

Early this morning,my mother and i went for a walk in the park.we were

having great fun talking when suddenly a wallet,lying in the path, came into my

vision.i picked it up and opened it,trying to find any possible information

about the owner of the wallet.In great luck,we found a card with a telephone

number on it.so, we decided to call the owner.surprisingly,its right the owner

of the wallet.we agreed the meeting place and time for giving back his wallet on

the phone.finally,we returned the wallet right to the owner.he thanked us a lot

,and we feel pleased to.

what a nice day!

今天一大早，我和妈妈去散步在公园玩。正当我们玩得很高兴讲时，突然一个钱包在路上进入我的视野。我把它捡起来打开它，看能否找到任何关于钱包失主的信息。很运气，我们发现了一张卡片与住一个电话号码，我们决定通知失主。令人惊讶的是，这是正是失主的钱包。在电话里，我们约定了见面的地点和时间归还他的钱包。他很感谢我们，我们也感觉很开心。

The future is in my eyes how good a word! Some people think the future is a long way off, and I think it is often fantasies of the future, be a good thing.

I close my eyes and dream, maybe I will become a peoples teacher in the future. One day, I finally became a respected teacher, has not said a word: "the teacher is human soul engineer?" I came to the new school, began to some nervous, but when I see one lovely smiling face, I all taut nerves relaxed. Began to chat with students, thus learned that the aspirations of their pupils... In class, I will be very serious, the class, I like their big sister, play games with them, chatting, so that we can promote the relationship between the teachers and students. As long as students have no problem, I will help them patiently. Good a dedicated teacher.

Often fantasies of the future, like to learn their ideal. Fantasy back to the pursuit of the future is very important in the future. Only you can change the future, I have never said that the future will change because of you. But the opportunity is created by yourself, and to cherish every opportunity to achieve their own future

未来在我的眼里是多么美好的一个词啊!有的人认为未来是遥遥无期的，而我，却认为常常幻想自己的未来，未尝不是一件好事。

我闭上眼幻想着，未来也许我会成为一名人民教师。一天，我终于成为了一名受人尊敬的教师了，有一句话不是说：“教师是人类灵魂的工程师吗?”我来到了新的学校，开始还有些紧张，但是当我看到一张张可爱的笑脸时，我所有绷紧的神经都放松了。开始与学生聊天，从而得知学生的志向……上课时，我会很严肃的，下课时，我就像他们的大姐姐一样，陪他们做游戏、聊天，这样可以促进师生之间的关系。只要学生有什么不会的题，我都会耐心地帮他们讲解。做一个尽心尽职的好老师。

常常幻想自己的未来，就像从而得知自己的理想一样。幻想未来对往后追求未来是很重要的。只有你自己才能改变未来，从来没有说未来会因你而改变。然而机遇是靠你自己去创造出来的，并且要珍惜每一个机会实现自己的未来

However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The fault-finder will find faults in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poor-house. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich mans abode; the snow melts before its door as early in the spring. I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace. The towns poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any. Maybe they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving. Most think that they are above being supported by the town; but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means, which should be more disreputable. Cultivate poverty like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. Turn the old, return to them. Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.

但是意思是你的生活,满足生活它;不要躲避它,更别用恶言咒骂它。它不像你那么坏。你最富有的时候,看起来却最贫穷。爱找缺点的人就是到天堂的能找到缺点。你要爱你的生活,尽管它贫穷。你也许有一些愉快、高兴、光荣的时间,即使在一个贫民收容所。夕阳反射在济贫院的养老院明亮如从富人的住处;雪融化在那门前早在春天。我只看到,一个从容的可能生活得心满意足,和像在皇宫中一样。镇上的穷人似乎我往往过着最独立的生活。也许他们很伟大,所以受之无愧。上面大多数认为他们是被支持的小镇,但它经常发生,他们不是用不诚实的手段来支持自己,而应该更声名狼藉。视贫穷如园中之花,像圣人一样耕植它吧!不要麻烦自己获得新的东西,无论是衣服还是朋友。找旧的,回到那里去。万物不变,是我们在变。你的衣服可以卖掉,但要保留你的思想。

There are four seasons in a year.The first season is spring. In spring, almost everything comes back to life. The snow begins to melt, the trees sprout and the grass turns green.Spring is warm so that its a good time to go hiking outdoors. After spring, itis summer. Summer is my favorite season,because I can swim quite often. The third one is autumn. In autumn, the weather is cool and comfortable. Farmers may be the busiest people, because autumn is a time of harvest.Winter is the last season of the year. In winter, the weather is very cold. In the north, it usually snows. Children can play games or make snowmen after snow. It seems very funny. But, because of the cold weather, I dont like winter very much. Whats your favorite season?

一年中有四个季节，第一个季节是春天。春天，万物复苏，雪开始融化，树木开始发芽，小草开始变绿。春天是个暖和的季节，是外出徒步旅行的好时机。春天过后就是夏天。夏天是我最喜欢的季节，因为我可以经常游泳。第三个季节是秋天。秋天，天气凉爽舒适。农民是最忙的人，因为秋天是收获的季节。冬天是一年的最后一个季节。冬天天气很冷，在北方经常下雪。下雪后孩子们喜欢玩游戏或者堆雪人，似乎很好玩。但是，由于天气寒冷，我不是很喜欢冬天。你最喜欢的季节是哪一个呢?

Ji Anlived at the time of Emperor Wudi of the Western Han Dynasty (206 B.C.-A.D.24). He was respected for being upright and just and for daring to speak the truth. He did not bother about amall matters in personal behaviour and in being an official. He was particular about actual effects and ,although he did not cause a stir ,he could keep the prefecture he governed in perfect order. Because of this. the imperial court transferred him to the central government from being the perfect of the Donghai Prefecture to being a commander in charge of the appointment and dismissal of the local officals.

Once,Emperor Wudi said that he would implement the policy of benevolence and justice of Confucianism and would do good turns to the people.Emperor Wudi Had hardly finished his remards when Ji An said that there was no need for the emperor to say so.Why should the emperor bother,Ji An said, about pretending to implement the policy of benevolence and justice since he was so greedy and avaricious within himself? This choked the emperor off. The emperor suddenly Changed his countenance and declared the meeting over. All the civilian and military officers at court were breathless with anxiety for fear that Ji An might bring disaster upon himself because of this. After returning, Emperor Wudi said to the people around him that Ji An was a little too rude and too straightforward.

For this reason ,Ji An was never promoted again. When he was the commander in charge of the appointment and dismissal of the local officials, both Gongsun Hong and Zhang Tang were low -ranking lfficials of little importance. Later ,they were promoted continuously. Gongsun Hong became the prime minister and Zhang Tang became the imperial censor. However, JiAns post remained thesame. One day, Ji An said to Emperor Wudi that the way the emperor used his ministers was just like piling up firewood, which meant that the latecomers surpassed the old-timers. Of course, Emperor Wudi could see that Ji An was complaining. So,turning to his ministers, Emperor Wudi said, "It is true that no one can stop learning.You see, Ji An is making more and more indiscreet remarks."

This story comes from The Historical Records. Later generations use the set phrase "the latecomers surpass the old-timers " to indicate that successors can cxcel the predecessors, which is quite different from the original idea when Ji An said that the latecomers surpassed the old-timers.

汲黯是西汉武帝时代人，以刚直正义、敢讲真话而受人尊重。他为人和做官都不拘小节，讲求实效。虽然表面上不那么轰轰烈烈，却能把一个郡治理得井井有条，因此，朝廷把他从东海太守调到朝廷当主爵都尉——一种主管地方吏任免的官职。

有一次，汉武帝说要实行儒家的仁义之政，为老百姓办好事了。没等皇帝把话说完，汲黯就说：“陛下内心里那么贪婪多欲，表面上却要装得实行仁政，这是何苦呢？”一句话把皇帝噎了回去。汉武帝登时脸色大变，宣布罢朝，满朝文武都为汲黯捏着一把汗，担心他会因此招来大祸。武帝回到宫里以后，对身边的人说，汲黯这个人也未免太粗太直了。

从此以后，汲黯的官职再也没有提升。他当主爵都尉的时候，公孙弘、张汤都还是不起眼的小官，后来，他们一个劲儿住上升，公孙弘当上了丞相，张汤做上了御史大夫，可他汲黯还蹲在原地没动窝。有一天，汲黯对武帝说，陛下使用群臣，跟码劈柴一样，是“后来者居上”啊！汉武帝当然听得出这是发牢骚。于是，转脸对臣下们说：“人真是不能不学习啊！你们听汲黯说话，越来越离谱了！”

故事出自《史记汲郑列传》。成语“后来居上”，往往指后起的可以胜过先前的。和汲黯说这话的原意，大不相同。
