近年来，校服的质量、舒适程度、风格经常成为社会关注的话题。不少90后的同学尤其对校服单调的风格产生疑问，认为校服难以充分展示个性。不过校服改为自愿穿的改革仍引发争议，部分同学认为，穿自己衣服容易造成学生攀比，会分散学习注意力，难以感觉自己作为该校学生的荣誉感等。请以School Uniforms 为题，谈谈你的看法。

2．是否喜欢穿校服？为什么？（至少有2个原因）

3. 学生在校是否应该穿校服？（至少有2-3个原因）

Some students think it is important for students to wear uniforms because school uniforms can not only show good discipline but also make us look more active. Besides, school uniforms are cheaper than causal clothes. What’s more, it shows no s should difference between students if every one wears school uniforms.

But other students think differently. They say that school uniforms look ugly on them. What’s more, it seems boring that one wears the same clothes every day. They want their clothes to be colorful.

In my opinion, students should wears uniforms. But we should be allowed to design our own uniforms.

一会儿，雪花儿静静地飘落下来。很快眼前的大地变白了，像个美丽的毯子。然后，雪越下越大。树儿披上了厚厚的棉被。整个城市变成了银色的世界。

第二天早晨，雪停了，天气晴朗了。我走进院子里，远远望去，我看见了一个美丽的银白色的世界，一群孩子正在快活地做游戏。一些在互相掷雪球，其他的在堆雪人。雪似乎给我们带来了温暖和祝福。尽管天气很冷，但是没有人在这白色的世界中感觉到寒冷。

我喜爱雪，因为它的纯净。它带给我们希望和活力。

[关于寒假的八年级英语日记

There were three of them. There were four of us, and April lay on the campsite and on the river, a mixture of dawn at a damp extreme and the sun in the leaves at cajole. This was Deer Lodge on the Pine River in Ossipee, New Hampshire, though the lodge was naught but a foundation remnant in the earth. Brother Bentleys father, Oren, had found this place sometime after the First World War, a foreign affair that had seriously done him no good but he found solitude abounding here. Now we were here, post World War II, post Korean War, Vietnam War on the brink. So much learned, so much yet to learn.

Peace then was everywhere about us, in the riot of young leaves, in the spree of bird confusion and chatter, in the struggle of pre-dawn animals for the start of a new day, a Cooper Hawk that had smashed down through trees for a squealing rabbit, yap of a fox at a youngster, a skunk at rooting.

We had pitched camp in the near darkness, Ed LeBlanc, Brother Bentley, Walter Ruszkowski, myself. A dozen or more years we had been here, and seen no one. Now, into our campsite deep in the forest, so deep that at times we had to rebuild sections of narrow road (more a loggers path) flushed out by earlier rains, deep enough where we thought wed again have no traffic, came a growling engine, an old solid body van, a Chevy, the kind I had driven for Frankie Pike and the Lobster Pound in Lynn delivering lobsters throughout the Merrimack Valley. It had pre-WW II high fenders, a faded black paint on a body youd swear had been hammered out of corrugated steel, and an engine that made sounds too angry and too early for the start of day. Two elderly men, we supposed in their seventies, sat the front seat; felt hats at the slouch and decorated with an assortment of tied flies like a miniature bandoleer of ammunition on the band. They could have been conscripts for Emilano Zappata, so loaded their hats and their vests as they climbed out of the truck.

"Mornin, been yet?" one of them said as he pulled his boots up from the folds at his knees, the tops of them as wide as a big mouth bass coming up from the bottom for a frog sitting on a lily pad. His hands were large, the fingers long and I could picture them in a shop barn working a primal plane across the face of a maple board. Custom-made, old elegance, those hands said.

"Barely had coffee," Ed LeBlanc said, the most vocal of the four of us, quickest at friendship, at shaking hands. "Weve got a whole pot almost. Have what you want." The pot was pointed out sitting on a hunk of grill across the stones of our fire, flames licking lightly at its sides. The pot appeared as if it had been at war, a number of dents scarred it, the handle had evidently been replaced, and if not adjusted against a small rock it would have fallen over for sure. Once, a half-hour on the road heading north, noting it missing, wed gone back to get it. When we fished the Pine River, coffee was the glue, the morning glue, the late evening glue, even though wed often unearth our beer from a natural cooler in early evening. Coffee, camp coffee, has a ritual. It is thick, it is dark, it is potboiled over a squaw-pine fire, it is strong, it is enough to wake the demon in you, stoke last evenings cheese and pepperoni. First man up makes the fire, second man the coffee; but into that pot has to go fresh eggshells to hold the grounds down, give coffee a taste of history, a sense of place. That means at least one egg be cracked open for its shells, usually in the shadows and glimmers of false dawn. I suspect thats where "scrambled eggs" originated, from some camp like ours, settlers rushing west, lumberjacks hungry, hoboes lobbying for breakfast. So, camp coffee has made its way into poems, gatherings, memories, a time and thing not letting go, not being manhandled, not being cast aside.

英语作文阅读：AnEmptyBox

Once upon a time, a man punished his 5-year-old daughter for using up the familys only roll of expensive gold wrapping paper. Money was tight, and he became even more upset when on Christmas Eve, he saw that the child had pasted the gold paper so as to decorate a shoebox to put under the Christmas tree.

Nevertheless, the next morning the little girl, filled with excitement, brought the gift box to her father and said, "This is for you, Daddy!"

As he opened the box, the father was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction.

But when he opened it, he found it was empty and again his anger flared. "Dont you know, young lady, " he said harshly, "when you give someone a present theres supposed to be something inside the package!"

The little girl looked up at him with tears rolling from her eyes and said: "Daddy, its not empty. I blew kisses into it until it was all full."

The father was crushed. He fell on his knees and put his arms around his precious little girl. He begged her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger.

An accident took the life of the child only a short time later. It is told that the father kept that little gold box by his bed for all the years of his life. Whenever he was discouraged or faced difficult problems he would open the box, take out an imaginary kiss, and remember the love of this beautiful child who had put it there.

In a very real sense, each of us as human beings have been given an invisible golden box filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, family, friends and God.

There is no more precious possession anyone could hold.

英语作文阅读：HappinessEquateswithFun

I live in Hollywood. You may think people in such a glamorous, fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness.

Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more abiding emotion.

Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends.

I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful inpiduals have constant access to glamorous parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells "happiness".

But in memoir after memoir, celebrities reveal the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, broken marriages, troubled children, profound loneliness.

The way people cling to the belief that a fun-filled, pain-free life equates happiness actually diminishes their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equated with happiness, then pain must be equated with unhappiness. But, in fact, the opposite is true: More times than not, things that lead to happiness involve some pain.

As a result, many people avoid the very endeavors that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment, civic or charitable work, and self-improvement.

英语作文阅读：TodayisaGift

Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was next to the room‘s only window. The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back. The men talked for hours on end.

They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation. And every afternoon when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window. The man in the other bed began to live for those one-hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside.

The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color of the rainbow. Grand old trees graced the landscape, and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance. As the man by the window described all this in exquisite detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene.

One warm afternoon the man by the window described a parade passing by. Although the other man couldn‘t hear the band - he could see it in his mind‘s eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words.

Days and weeks passed. One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep. She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.

As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, she left him alone. Slowly and painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the world outside. Finally, he would have the joy of seeing it for himself. He strained to slowly turn to look out the window beside the bed. It faced a blank wall.

The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things outside this window. The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the wall. She said, "Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you."

英语作文阅读：IsPackingImportanttoYou

A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealers showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.

As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young mans name embossed in gold.

Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" He then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.

Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make the arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things.

When he arrived at his fathers house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his fathers important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago.

With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealers name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words… "PAID IN FULL".

How many times do we miss blessings because they are not packaged as we expected? I trust you enjoyed this. Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for. Sometimes we dont realize the good fortune we have or we could have because we expect "the packaging" to be different. What may appear as bad fortune may in fact be the door that is just waiting to be opened.

英语作文阅读：TheBabyEagle

Once upon a time there was a baby eagle living in a nest perched on a cliff overlooking a beautiful valley with waterfalls and streams, trees and lots of little animals, scurrying about enjoying their lives.

The baby eagle liked the nest. It was the only world he had ever known. It was warm and comfortable, had a great view, and even better, he had all the food and love and attention that a great mother eagle could provide. Many times each day the mother would swoop down from the sky and land in the nest and feed the baby eagle delicious morsels of food. She was like a god to him, he had no idea where she came from or how she worked her magic.

The baby eagle was hungry all the time, but the mother eagle would always come just in time with the food and love and attention he craved. The baby eagle grew strong. His vision grew very sharp. He felt good all the time.

Until one day, the mother stopped coming to the nest.

The baby eagle was hungry. "Im sure to die," said the baby eagle, all the time.

"Very soon, death is coming," he cried, with tears streaming down his face. Over and over. But there was no one there to hear him.

Then one day the mother eagle appeared at the top of the mountain cliff, with a big bowl of delicious food and she looked down at her baby. The baby looked up at the mother and cried "Why did you abandon me? Im going to die any minute. How could you do this to me?"

The mother said, "Here is some very tasty and nourishing food, all you have to do is come get it."

"Come get it!" said the baby, with much anger. "How?"

The mother flew away.

The baby cried and cried and cried.

A few days later, "Im going to end it all," he said. "I give up. It is time for me to die."

He didnt know his mother was nearby. She swooped down to the nest with his last meal.

"Eat this, its your last meal," she said.

The baby cried, but he ate and whined and whined about what a bad mother she was.

"Youre a terrible mother," he said. Then she pushed him out of the nest.

He fell.

Head first.

Picked up speed.

Faster and faster.

He screamed. "Im dying Im dying," he cried. He picked up more speed.

He looked up at his mother. "How could you do this to me?"

He looked down.

The ground rushed closer, faster and faster. He could visualize his own death so clearly, coming so soon, and cried and whined and complained. "This isnt fair!" he screamed.

Something strange happens.

The air caught behind his arms and they snapped away from his body, with a feeling unlike anything he had ever experienced. He looked down and saw the sky. He wasnt moving towards the ground anymore, his eyes were pointed up at the sun.

"Huh?" he said. "What is going on here!"

"Youre flying," his mother said.

"This is fun!" laughed the baby eagle, as he soared and ped and swooped.

"Yes it is!" said the mother.

[英语作文阅读：The Three Fishermen

In today＇s society, more and more adults return to the university, sit in the classroom, open the textbook again in order to further their education.What they study involves a lot of subjectsnot only English and computer used in all trades as tools,but also more professional ones such as MBA courses. Different from thecollegestudentswho may know little aboutwhat they＇ll major in the college before they are engaged in it, the adults make their choices for some simple and definite reasons,which can be roughly classified into three groups, the requirement of the job market, the desire for higher salary and the need for entertainment and relaxation.

In the era characterized of rapid development of technology,it is not so easy to find or to secure a job for the intense competition. As a result, adults feel what they studied in school is far from enough to deal with the work in hand. Thus, "to charge the battery" is listed into schedule by more and more people. For example, Mr. Wang, an accountant in a big company, suddenly realized it was too hard for him to understand technical terms coming from his young colleagues. And worst of all, they ap

peared in the program of their new business. So, firmly, he entered for a weekend course on accountancy for a further degree.

But in some cases, people prefer reeducation just for money,which partly results from the professional job title system in China. Although virtually unrelated to people＇s own jobs, a few certificates are fervently pursued by some middle aged men and women just because they are the criteria for a higher title, which means some one hundred Yuan or so will be added to their salary. So it＇s the eagerness to grasp money rather than to study render them to return to the class.

It is true that severe pressure of making a living stirs some people to pursue further education.However,this is not the case as far as another group of people are concerned. These people, with domestic and occupational stability, feel a lack of interest in their life. So, they turn to some courses such as music and arts and literature, which may be their childhood dream. Education of this type can relax their nerves, make them more graceful and their life more colorful.

Mainly for the three reasons mentioned above, an increasingly large number of adults in modern society came back to classroom after they stepped out of the campus.Whatever reasons lead to their reeducation, our society benefits a lot from the endeavor of these adults.To name just a few, the workers＇ quality improves, and the income of education industry increascs... And more people are continuing to join the team of adult learners.By the way,if youpay a little attention to your parents, you＇ll probably find a brand new College English Course which you have just finished is on his or her desk now.

I like to read books, because I have given up a lot of knowledge and truth, I want to say to everyone loudly: "I love reading, the book has its own gold room."

许多人都喜欢读书，我也一样喜欢读书，书带给了我们人类许多乐趣，也让我们懂得了许多道理。高尔基说过，书是人类进步的台阶，书也是我勇气的源泉。书就是大海，而我是小鱼，在大海中自由自在地遨游;书就是天空，而我是小鸟，在天空中愉快地飞翔。

我从小就喜欢读书，那时候我不识字，只能看一些有图画的书，也常常让妈妈读给我听。上小学以后，我时常不是抱着一本童话故事书，就是拿着一本作文书。久而久之，我喜欢上了读书，不管是什么书，我都会认真地看。就这样，我从书中知睡道了许多知识，也从书中明白了许多道理，也积累了不少好词、好句。我的作文水平一下子提高了好多。我也更加喜欢读书了，每天晚上觉前都要看一会书。

从这些事情中，我知道了读书是每个人不可缺少的。我不知道该如何表达我对读书的热爱。只要一有空，我就钻到童话世界里去了。和白雪公主、七个小矮人在一起;有时又和灰姑娘在一起;又有的时候和小飞侠在天空中自由自在地遨游;还有时和小飞象在等待和盼望着它的妈妈，有时……

有空时，我又会走进作文屋里，去看一看他们的生活和趣事，想一想如何丰富生活、丰富世界。总之，读书会给你带来许多乐趣，会丰富你的生活，丰富你的世界。我喜欢读书，因为我从学到了很多的知识和道理，我想对每个人大声说：“我爱读书，书中自有黄金屋。”

Covering Ones Ears While Stealing a Bell

掩耳盗铃

Mr. Wang thinks he is clever, but he always does [en]foolish

things.[/en]

王先生总以为自己很聪明，实际上他总干傻事。

One day he sees a beautiful bell at the top of a door. "Oh! How nice! I will take it home." He thinks, "What can I do?" After a while he has a "good" idea. "Aha! I have an idea now. I can plug my ears. Then I will not hear the ring when I take off the bell."

一天，他看见一户人家的门头有个很漂亮的铃铛。"啊，真漂亮啊!我要把它拿回家去。"他自言自语道："我该怎么做呢?"过了一会儿他想到了一个"好"主意。"啊哈!我有办法了!我把耳朵堵上，拿铃铛的时候就听不见铃声了。"

Then he does so. But as soon as he takes off the bell, the owner opens the door. "What are you doing?" the owner says angrily.

于是他就这样做了。可是他刚拿下铃铛，屋子的主人就打开门，怒气冲冲地说："你在干什么?"

【成语来源】

At the time when Fan, a nobleman of the state of Jin, became a fugitive, a commoner found a bell and wanted to carry it off on his back.

春秋时侯，晋国贵族智伯灭掉了范氏。有人趁机跑到范氏家里想偷点东西，看见院子里吊着一口大钟。钟是用上等青铜铸成的，造型和图案都很精美。小偷心里高兴极了，想把这口精美的大钟背回自已家去。

But the bell was too big for him.

可是钟又大又重，怎么也挪不动。

[/en]When he tried to knock it into pieces with a hammer there was a loud clanging sound. [/en]

他想来想去，只有一个办法，那就是把钟敲碎，然后再分别搬回家。小偷找来一把大锤，拼命朝钟砸去，咣的一声巨响，把他吓了一大跳。

He was afraid that someone will hear the noise and take the bell from him, so he immediately stopped his own ears.

小偷着慌，心想这下糟了，这种声不就等于是告诉人们我正在这里偷钟吗?他越听越害怕，不同自由地抽回双手，使劲捂住自已的耳朵。

To worry about other people hearing the noise is understandable, but to worry about himself hearing the noise (as if stopping his own ears would prevent other people from hearing) is absurd.

“咦，钟声变小了，听不见了!”小偷高兴起来，“妙极了!把耳朵捂住不住就听不进钟声了吗!”他立刻找来两个布团，把耳朵塞住，心想，这下谁也听不见钟声了。于是就放手砸起钟来，一下一下，钟声响亮地传到很远的地方。人们听到钟声蜂拥而至把小偷捉住了。

Learning english can be a very difficult task for most people, this is because we dont live in a environment where we are forced to speak or write english. so i think the best way to learn english is by communicating with others using the lagnguage itself and not just learn from the book. Im sure if you live in an environment such as a foreign country and were forced to speak and write english everyday then your english will imprve dramatically.

学习英语对大多数人来说都可能是一个非常困难的任务，这是因为我们不是生活在一个环境里，我们被迫说或写英文。所以我认为学习英语最好的方法是通过使用lagnguage本身而不是别人沟通从书中学习。我相信如果你生活在一个环境如国外，被迫说，写英语你的英语将成绩显着。

Although we must agree that we need to read and write english from the book in order to get the foundations that we need for basic communication, this is essential but as i said, this is only a foundation, what you develop afterwards all depends on your ability to adapt to an environment and your courage.

虽然我们必须承认，我们需要阅读和书写英语从书中以得到我们所需要的基本通信的基础，这是必要的但正如我所说，这只是一个基础，你的发展之后，一切都取决于你适应环境的能力和你的决心。

环境对人类十分重要，可是有些人不爱护环境，也不知道环境对人类的重要性。

Environment is very important for human beings, but some people do not care for the environment, do not know the importance of the human environment.

你看，许多人都不爱护环境，它们随地扔垃圾，有些人认为：一个垃圾算什么?可是积少成多，小区里最好看的地方成了垃圾站。有些人为了建房子挖山砍树，美丽的小山变成了沙漠和房子。有些人没时间做饭，就在外面快餐店买了饭一边走一边吃，吃完饭后他们还把一次性饭盒，一次性筷子丢在地上。有些人为了展示自己家里很有钱就开着跑车在路面上到处跑。他们没有意识到既污染环境又浪费能源。有些工厂将一些污水、浓烟排入江河和天空。

You see, a lot of people do not care for the environment, they throw rubbish everywhere, some people think: what a waste? But many a little makes a mickle, areas where the best places to see a garbage station. Some people in order to build a house digging trees, beautiful hill into the desert and the house. Some people have no time to cook, just outside the store to buy a snack food while walking after dinner, they also eat, disposable lunch boxes, disposable chopsticks on the floor. Some people in order to show that he has a rich family is driving a car to run around on the road. They do not realize that both environmental pollution and waste of resources. Some factories in some sewage discharged into the rivers, the smoke and the sky.

为了我们的环境，为了我们的生活，我希望人们可以把垃圾扔进垃圾桶，少砍树多造林，尽量回家吃饭。将废气废水引入地下，不要展示自己多么有钱，要注意节能减排。

For the sake of our environment, to our life, I hope people can throw rubbish into the dustbin, cut less than planting, try to go home for dinner. The waste gas and water into the underground, dont show his money, pay attention to energy saving and emission reduction.

相信在大家的努力下不远的将来，我们的城市会更美!

Believe not far from everyones efforts in the future, our city will be more beautiful!

In recent years, I find it easier to our resources dried up. All of these, because we have recently a lot of collection resources, leading to our mothers are dwindling.

What is the mother of all resources less and less? Is, of course, we humans excessive spoiling dont cherish, would cause such a serious result. Our earth forest area has reached 600 million hectares, the figure is due to our human previously has important sense to protect the environment, know that if you dont have a good environment, we wont be able to breathe to the light wind gently brushed the grass surface sweet taste. And now? Us that the earths forest area is still not arrived 6 hectares, this kind of situation, it is because we humans cut down trees and destroying forest without restraint, make almost fell by 1% in each of the forest area in the world, now our protection in the nature of the important consciousness is more and more shallow, dont take care of the objects around, as the forest is less, the first bite of the air we breathe is less and less fresh...

Is not destruction of forest resources, and our mineral resources. It is limited, now our production technology constantly improve, the accelerating speed and shortage of some minerals occurred, even dried up. Until then, we will always stay in the desolate landscape.

In the face of these, can see there are so many resources in we lost too much! We rely on resources too much! All around us, little drops of the resources are in decline, if lost it all, we will how to live! So, let us sincerely treat our mother earth, try to cherish, to cherish. If only use a small plastic bag, it should not be too!

Let us act, to defend the earth!

近几年来，我发现我们的资源越来越容易枯竭了。这些，都是因为我们最近大量的采集资源，才导致我们的母亲日渐枯竭。

是什么让我们这位母亲的资源越来越少了呢?当然是我们人类过度的糟蹋不珍惜，才会造成这样严重的结果的。我们的地球森林面积曾经达到了6亿公顷，这笔惊人的数字是由于我们人类以前有着保护环境的重要意识，深知如果没有了良好的环境，我们也就无法呼吸到微风轻拂过草面的甜美味道。而现在呢?我们地球的森林面积还不到了6公顷，这种状况，就是因为我们人类不加节制地砍伐树木和毁林开荒而造成的，使世界上的森林面积几乎每年减少了1%，现在我们的保护在自然的重要意识越来越浅，不爱护身边的一草一木，由于森林逐渐变少，我们呼吸的第一口空气也就越来越不清新……

还不止森林资源被破坏，还有我们的矿产资源。它是有限的，现在我们的开采技术不断提高，速度不断加快，使某些矿种发生短缺，甚至面临枯竭。到那时，我们将永远呆在荒凉的大地上。

面对这些，可以看出来我们失去的资源真是太多太多了!我们的依赖的资源也太多了!在我们身边，点点滴滴的资源都在减少，如果失去了这一切，我们将如何生活!所以，让我们真心地善待我们的地球母亲，努力去珍惜，去爱惜。哪怕只是多用一个小小的塑料袋，这也是不应该的!

让我们行动起来，保卫地球吧!

Every Thursday at 6 o;clock in the afternoon, we all go to the English comer on the campus to practice our spoken English.

We talk about various topics we are

interested in, such as campus life, the wide use of English, and information technology.

We communicated with each other frankly, happily and freely. Our English has improved quickly by this means. We all believe that "practice makes perfect."

If we want to keep our bodies healthy, we must have a good habit. We should

get up and go to bed early and sleep at least eight hours every day. Do more

exercise, such as walking, swimming, playing balls and so on. We should also eat

healthy food——more fruit and vegetable s and less meat. If you don’t feel well,

you’d better see a doctor at once. And we should wash our hands before meals and

drink enough boiled water every day. It’s necessary for our health.

We should not throw litter about, keep long fingernails and smoke etc. It’s

also very important.

Some students study English by reading English magazines or newspapers, and

some of them are interested in watching English programs on TV. In my opinion,

every day, we should insist on reading the textbooks and learning words by

heart. Listening to English tapes and keeping diaries are very useful, too.

Singing English songs is also a good way for us to improve our oral

English. Whats more we should often speak English.

No pains, no gains. Im sure well make great progress if we keep on

working hard at it.

It was a sunny noon, I carry bag is preparing to lead a streak of the road, I saw the red light was stopped shining. See opposite has a blind old man, he was wearing a some shabby clothes and a pair of dirty and bad shoes, leaning on a crooked stick. For us to cross the road is a very simple thing, but for the blind grandfather is a challenging "life and death battle" the green light. The old man limped toward the road. Others see the pretend a pair of weak without the appearance of it. And I saw a green light, but also can the blind man grandpa, love drives me. In the end, I still help the old man crossed the road and sent him back to the home. At home, I feel very happy, surely.

You warm hands, give your heart to help those in need. Do a life of love, because love can save the world, as long as there is love in our heart world will be better. As long as everyone sacrificed a little love, the world will be better and more splendid!

在我们身边、生活中处处都被爱感染着，因为爱能让奇迹发生。

那是一个阳光明媚的中午，我背着书包正准备过一条斑马路，我见红灯在闪闪发亮就停住了脚步。只见对面有一位盲人老爷爷，他穿着一身有些破烂的衣服和一双又脏又烂的鞋，拄着一根歪歪扭扭的拐杖。对于我们来说过马路是一件非常简单的事，但对于这位盲人老爷爷来说是一个具有挑战性的“生死战”绿灯亮了。那位老爷爷一瘸一拐地走向马路。其它人见了装做一副弱无其事的样子。而我见绿灯亮了，但又放心不下那位盲人老爷爷，爱心驱使着我。最后，我还是帮助老爷爷过了马路并且把他送回了家。在回家途中我感到非常快乐、踏实。

通过这件事情，让我懂得了你帮助别人，别人得到了快乐，自己也得到了快乐。生活中的残疾人他们的世界与众不同，但只要我们用爱去感染、去帮助就会有奇迹发生。

虽然他们眼中的世界并不清晰，脚下的路并不平坦，但我相信我们用爱去帮助有困难的人就会有奇迹。来吧!伸出你热情的双手，献出你火热的心来帮助这些有困难的人。做一个生活中的爱心人士，因为爱能拯救世界，只要我们心中有爱世界才会美好起来。只要人人献出一点爱，世界将会更美好、更灿烂!

在我们身边、生活中处处都被爱感染着，因为爱能让奇迹发生。

I am Jack. My favorite sport is football. I often play football with my

twice a week. His favorite player is Sun Yang. His dream job is to be a great

swimmer. What about Mary? Tennis is her favorite sport. She plays tennis every

day. Her favorite player is Li Na. But her dream is to be a dancer.

Today after breakfast, Ill sit idly in the desk, began writing assignments, write for a while, dont want to write, I will go to find a favorite book to read.

Read me not only happy, but one hundred times spirit, dont like doing his homework when lethargy. The advantages of reading more than only a few, I also gain a lot "baby"! - just read a story, let me know a secret: life if people force you, want to know a secret that you dont want to let others know, we can use our wisdom to get rid of him; On the other hand, we can even through the rhetoric you want to ask the secret of others (and, of course, we still dont go to peep at other peoples secret is better). After I read a story, I find myself in times a good mood, so I started to finish her homework.

Wrote another half an hour, on the side of a book is like a magnet attracted me. At this moment, my heart is very contradictory, I want to in their own heart to happily reading a book; And want to hurry up and finish the homework well. So, I seriously think: "I read the book for a while! Soon so I can harvest to a lot of knowledge, gain the knowledge I can better finish your homework. Ha! Ha! Just do it."

Happy to read the book for a moment, Ill take the time to finish all your homework, I began to read.

今天吃完早饭，我就懒懒地坐到了书桌旁，开始写作业，写了一会儿，不想写了，我便去找了一本自己喜爱的书来阅读。

阅读时我不仅心情愉悦，而且精神百倍，根本不像做作业时那样无精打采了。阅读的好处不仅仅只有这么点，我还收获到了很多“宝贝”呢!——刚读了一个故事，就让我知道了一个生存秘诀：如果别人逼问你，想知道一个你并不想让别人知道的秘密时，我们可以用自己的智慧去摆脱他;反之,我们甚至还可以通过套话问出自己想得到的别人的那个秘密(当然，我们还是不要去窥视别人的秘密比较好)。看完一篇故事，我发现自已心情倍好，于是我又开始去完成自己的家庭作业了。

又写了半个钟头，放在旁边的书又像磁石一样吸引着我。这时，我心里很矛盾，我既想按照自己的心意去快快乐乐地看书;又想快点把家庭作业好好地完成。于是，我认真地想:“我快点看会儿书吧!这样我就可以收获到很多知识，收获到知识我就可以更好地完成作业。哈!就这样办。”

开心地读了一会儿书，我就抓紧时间把作业全都写完了——我又开始读书了。

Im sure you know the song Happy Birthday . You must sing this song to

your family and your friends many times on their birthdays every year. But do

you know who wrote this song? And who was it written for?

More than one hundred years ago, two of archibald Hills aunts, Miss Patty

Hill and Miss Mildred J. Hill were both kindergarten teachers then. They loved

children very much and wrote many beautiful songs for the book. One of them was

the well-known song "Good Morning to You". This song was very popular at that

time among kindergarten children, but many grown-ups didnt know it. A few year

later, little Archibald was born. Miss Patty Hill sang the song "Happy

birthday"to the melody of "Good Morning to You" to her little nephew.

Miss Patty Hill and her sister never thought that song would become so

popular, but it really did.

People all over the world like the song.
