英语课上，经常能听到我们教室里欢声笑语，这归功于我们的英语老师――余老师。究竟是怎么回事呢？还是让我举个例子说明吧！

那天英语课，我们正好学到“学校”那一课，余老师就在黑板上画了一个学校的简图，一边画，一边教我们怎么读：hall（礼堂），classroom（教室），读到canteen（餐厅）的时候，因为跟中文发音非常相似，所以大家都哄堂大笑了起来，不过记得也牢。

过了一会儿，余老师让我们造“我们在要安静”的句式，我填的是hall，但我把它读成了hell,-，余老师捧腹大笑着对我们翻译：“hell是地狱的意思”，我一脸尴尬地坐下，同学们笑的更欢了。

不知怎么回事儿，赵轩突然喊了一声：“萨拉咪好吃听得见”，被余老师听见了，他立刻对赵轩说：“去外面说十遍‘萨拉咪好吃听得见’”，有几个人不禁捂着嘴偷笑。“给萨拉咪做广告去”，余老师又说。这次我们忍不住了，一起开怀大笑，赵轩也认识到了错误，以后犯这种错误的时候也少了。

下课了，余老师莫名其妙地最后来了一句：“我觉得自己画的画比以前好了耶”，我们先是丈二和尚摸不着头脑，然后就争先恐后地开起了玩笑：“什么呀，还不是一样难看”，“比以前还难看呢！”。。。。。。

我们班上可能有人不喜欢英语，但肯定没有人不喜欢英语课，或许有些不喜欢英语的同学被余老师也弄得喜欢英语了呢！

英语老师，我要向您诉说一件事。这件事一会埋藏在我的心底。

那是去年的一天上午，到了7点整，闹钟便“叮一叮”的催促我快快起床去上英语补习班，我只好不情愿地离开小被窝。一切准备就绪后，我刚要出门肚子便痛了起来，我立即走进了厕所，过了好一会儿我才出来，这是一看时钟，天啊！还有几分钟就要上课了！我大惊失色，以最快的速度赶往补习学校，可还是迟到了……

当我轻轻地推开教师门时，同学们的目光“刷”一下子全移到了我身上，我的脸顿时一阵红，一阵白。在看到老师利箭般的严厉目光投向了我，我更是有口难言，只好硬着头皮回座位。过了一会儿，老师发了一张练习卷让我们做，我很快完成了所有题目。这时，坐在我后面的马陈翼向我发出了“求救信号”，我连理都不理他，他见我无动于衷，便再三哀求，我转过头刚想回绝他，却被老师发现了，您把我批评了一顿……说我跟他学坏。

唉！被冤枉的滋味真不好受！

When it comes to the 5th day of the fifth month of the Chinese lunar calendar, you will think of Dragon Boat Festival and zongzi. Do you know the origin of Dragon Boat Festival? Let me tell you something about it.

Qu Yuan, a doctor in the state of Chu, had always loved the country, but his patriotic heart was unfairly treated by Zi Lan and Jin Shang. In the early May ad 278, five, Qu Yuan was patriotic and angry, holding a big stone, jumping into the Miluo River and suicidal. The people of the state of Chu were all sorrowful. They all rowed a boat to save Qu Yuan. But a vast ocean, where there was Qu Yuans shadow, the gang had been in the Miluo river for half a day, and had no choice but to find Qu Yuan corpse. The bamboo tube in Steamed Rice cast the hope that the fish in the water is not the original body of gnawing humiliation. After that, every year on the 5th day of the fifth month of the Chinese lunar calendar, the local people rowed the rice into the river in the bamboo tube, and later, the rice in the bamboo tube was changed to zongzi.

On the annual Dragon Boat Festival, people pack zongzi, buy zongzi and eat zongzi. The shape of zongzi is very special, neither square nor round. The zongzi is wrapped with green rice dumplings wrapped in glutinous rice and jujube. The color and appearance of the dumplings are very good. The taste of the dumplings is unique. It is a unique taste of the zongzi. It is both a delicacy of summer and an appetizing food, and a good nourishing nourishing product.

Whenever I eat zongzi, I think of Qu Yuans patriotism.

The Dragon Boat Festival is also called "the five", so a lot of custom and the number five is related to. But to use red, yellow, blue, white, black colored silk thread in the childs neck, wrist or ankle, called a long thread.

端午节的来历/习俗都很多，说也说不完。其中有一个来历是这样的，古代有个诗人叫屈原，他受到坏人的诬陷，为了证明自己是清白的，他投汨罗江而死，主张爱国主义。后来的人们赛龙舟是为了捞救他，投粽子是为了让鱼虾吃饱，不去吃屈原的遗体。

A lot of the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival and customs, said also said not over.

在我儿时的记忆中,除了春节以外就数端午节最为热闹了,由于父母工作都很忙,小时候我常常跟外婆一起呆在乡下.那时的端午节使我难以忘怀.

与平时的过年过节一样,在端午节的前一天晚上,外婆总会让我乖乖坐在床边,给我讲一些过节的规矩,例如“不许乱说话““不许偷吃冷粽子”“不许与小伙伴打闹”“不许玩水”……我总是批频频地点头.外婆就让我早早睡下,好让明天能有个好精神.

早晨,我早早地就起床了,穿好衣服就先奔向厨房,此时外婆已把厨房里的一切都打理好了,灶台上绑着几捆桂叶和桂绳,白白嫩嫩的糯米静静地躺在盛满水的小木桶中,像一粒粒晶莹的珍珠,灶台上放着的几个小碟,里面盛着各种各样的料：有花生、有豆沙、有肉、有红塘.

于是,我就坐在桌上一边 吃着早饭一边看着外婆忙碌着.

乡下的灶台是两边的,一边用来烧水,一边用来煮菜煮饭,外婆就把早已洗干净的鸭蛋放入大锅里,用木瓢从另一个热水锅里舀几瓢水放入大锅中,然后还细心地放入一小勺的盐,接着就往灶里添了几根枯枝,便坐在了我旁边,开始给我编络子了.

外婆的手由于长期劳动已经粗糙的像树皮一般了,但却不失灵巧,三下五除二一个用红绳编成的络子就编成了.

此时,蛋也煮好了,外婆就捞起一个最大的用红纸沾水染成了红色,再用干布擦拭干净,装进络子里,挂在我脖子上.接着,外婆就往我兜里装着瓜子、糖果、花生,我往往十分高兴,因为这样,我就可以和小伙伴们一起去看龙舟赛了.

外婆总是把我送到大门口,嘱咐着要我快些回来吃粽子.我总是一溜烟就消失了.

小伙伴们此时都差不多到齐了,由邻家的大姐姐当头,领着我们这一群小毛孩到河边看赛龙舟.由于河道较小,所以就只有两条的龙舟,每条龙舟都有13个人,12个人划桨,1个人打鼓喊口号,“一、二、嘿呦,一、二、快、”12个皮肤黝黑的小伙子动作整齐地划着,两条龙舟你追我赶地向前驶去.

可是,小孩子会知道看什么呢?我们只不过图个热闹罢了.女孩子一般看了一会儿,便觉得无趣了,就坐在一旁分享起零嘴,男孩子呢,则不然,他们总喜欢沿着岸边追着龙舟跑,由于划桨的人力度较大,几乎每个男孩身上都有水花溅着的痕迹.

锣响了,大概是舟到终点了吧,刚好东西也吃完了,站起身,与伙伴们拉着手高高兴兴回家去.

太阳也慢慢爬到正空中,外婆家的厨房里已经飘出了桂叶的清香了,我就连忙蹿进厨房里,去挑已出锅的个大的粽子.一般我都会坐在门槛上把那个粽子吃得干干净净,偶尔会剩下几颗糯米粒给鸡吃,看着大公鸡的贪吃样,我也被逗乐了……尽管如今过端午节,母亲每年都会包粽子,编络子给我,尽管母亲的手艺一点也不比外婆逊色,但我总觉得少了些什么.

I have a parrot. Its name is Nancy. I call it Nancy, because it is my passed grandmother’s name. I love her and hope she can accompany with, so I name my parrot her name.

Nancy is very beautiful. Its fur is special comfortable. It is clever, too. At first, it can’t say any words, but now it can say many words. Like, good morning, good afternoon, good night, good bye and so on. it learns fast. I love it very much.

我国古代有一位爱国诗人叫屈原，他遭谗言被放逐后，无力拯救危亡的国家，悲愤过度，于是投江自尽，以生殉国。人们为了不使鱼虾吃掉他的尸体，纷纷将捏成的各种各样的饼子投入江中，用来喂饱水中的动物，有的划着船在水上敲锣打鼓驱赶水兽。这便成为现在端午节，吃粽子、炸糕点、赛龙舟的由来。

说到这里，我又想起了我家过端午节的情景。奶奶捏了种类不同的饼子，有小花，小人，小海星，真是形态各异。妈妈急着去买菜角，爸爸不慌不忙地拉着我去买粽子。排着长长的队，好似一条长龙，我们好不容易才买到了粽子。可以看出，家家户户都很重视这个节日，人们用这种方式来表达对屈原的思念和崇敬。

My summer holiday started from July.In July,I always stay at home,reading books and watching TV.I borrowed some books from the library of the city.They are about English and Maths.Because I am not good at English and Maths,I need to study hard on them.In the next month,I traveled with my parents to a few of beautiful cities.They are Yangzhou,Lianyungang,Chengdu and so on.I like these cities.They are beautiful cities.I had a wonderful summer holiday.After the holiday,I will study hard and try my best to become a member useful for the society.
