Hello everybody! My name is Chen Xuanlin. It is my pleasure to be here to

share my opinions of growing pains.

Grow up, like a boat in my life, driving the wave surface. Sometimes, be in

calm, sometimes be in rough. But the boat I was growing up, not everything is

going. For me, sour,sweet,bitter,ho t,everything .

Now, as I grow up, are becoming adults, so in the eyes of parents, I was no

longer to be a kid. Sometimes, they say "youve grown up,not a children!" When I

listen to this,my head will be pain.

When I was a little boy, my life is so relaxed.But now, in front of the

waves are bigger, and more twists and turns the sea,I become a middle school

student, that I have all gone past. Im taller, homework more, study more

subjects,have more test.When I was a boy, I am wrong no matter what happened, no

one to blame me.But now,if I do something wrong,my parents will shout. The

relaxe time will far away from me.I will be more busy.

Study pressure always troubling me. Grown up, more work gradually like

hills. After school, I do not dare to play, to see their favorite book, Im

afraid I cant complete the work, I can only try very hard to make the pen in my

book on wave, for example, I have to run on the way home. The course also

gradually heavy. Every home in the evening review, I looked at a lot of books, I

really do not know to study what subject, is Chinese? Or math? Or geography?

Or……

What should I do? To look life in the future.

After a few hours of resting, it was time to do some evening chores. Jack

grabbed his notebook and pen, he put on his glasses; and tried to concentrate

and read about his notes he had written before bed last night.

“Going to tree house, many books on the floor; open page dinosaur, made a

wish; arrived at time of dinosaurs. Open page frog lake creek, made a wish;

arrived at adventure frog lake creek,” “Who is going to believe allthese? Not my

mother, not my father, not my teacher Mrs. Waltson…” Only his little sister

Annie, she had gone with to the time of the dinosaurs, and frog lake creek…

Suddenly there was a “Bang, bang, bang!” on the door, “Who is there?” asked

Jack, his little sister Annie pushed open the door; and said, “Can you sleep?”

“Nope, of course not, I didn’t do my evening chores; and besides, who wants to

do chores now and then?” “Do you want to go to the magic tree house?” “No, it is

too late, and mother and father would probably be angry if they figured we

aren’t in bed.” “Well I’m going,” said Annie, “All right,” answered Jack in a

sudden. He put on his jeans, and sweater, and then rushed out down stairs. Annie

came out with a flashlight; she shined it bright in Jack’s face, “Boo!” Jack was

scared, “Gotcha! Ha!” Jack was angry, “Annie, stop messing around;” “Okay, fine!

Ugh!” then Annie clipped the flashlight onto her belt.

Jack took another flashlight, then they tip-toed down stairs; when they

arrived, Jack said, “I don’t know Annie; i-i-i-i-t looks a bit scary and

dangerous…” “Oh come on scary cat! It’s just a tree house, do you want to see

the magic person and the golden medal or not!?” “Medallion, not medal;” said

Jack quietly. “Whatever, let us go and see what the golden medal looks like;

come on!” “Medallion!” said Jack, “And what if the magic person was not nice?!”

“You are such a scary cat; at least you get to take the gold medal as a reward

of you bravery.”

“Medallion!!” shouted Jack for the third time, “Come on, I know you are

caught up with this so called ‘Medallion’ thingy, let’s just go! Don’t waste

time!” after saying that, Annie climbed up the ladder all the way to the top of

the tree house; “Annie! No!” shouted Jack, but he was too late; Annie already

climbed up, Jack had no choice; he climbed up too, and when he arrived he found

the floor all covered with books, “let us make another wish so that we could

have another adventure!” “No!” cried Jack, “Well I’m going!” shouted Annie, he

found a page with a knight, she pointed to the picture; and within a second they

were surrounded by knights; “Oh no,” thought Jack.

Dear Manager

I got to know the message that the position of the salesman in your company is empty, which made me excited about it, for that, I want it for a long time.

Please let me tell the reasons why I am so excited. Its so famous that it is hardly unknown to everyone. As known, in your company, the products are in a good qualification and the sales service is satisfied, which made me believe that your company would be a perfect stage for me.

Of course, the requirements for this position are high, but I think I am good enough for it. In the last four years, I worked very hard on my study and had a good understanding of professional knowledge. Besides, I took every chance to practice. I attended several activities and took up an internship is an organization. As a result, I developed great practical skills. And, I get CET-6 certification and choose the sales lessons. I think they would be helpful to be your staff.

I am looking forward to your reply.

There was once an old goat that was very, very old; he could barely walk,

and was always sleepy during important emergencies. One day the goat went off to

eat grass among the fields.

During the time, the goat did not realize that the goat pack had gone

straight in front of him. He had no choice but to continue straight on. As soon

as he passed the hill, he found the goat pack had already crossed three other

mountains… The old goat was tired of climbing and walking, so he decided to

rest. After a short break, he was sure that the goat pack had already wiped him

away far back behind.

The goat decided to find a place to be made a shelter for him to sleep

tonight. Along the way, the old goat walked along; he trembled along the way. At

last, he found a big round cave for him to sleep in, so that he could rest his

energy and continue his journey…

The old goat didn’t even realize that this was home to the lion, king of

all animals. As soon as he approached the mouth of the cave, the lion smelled

the goat out with his nose. The lion shouted, “Who are you that dare come to my

house? I am going to destroy you, and eat you up for breakfast!!!!” the old goat

was frightened out of his wits, he wanted to run, but knew that he was not fast

enough. He closed his mouth and held his breathe, and pretended not to be

frightened or afraid.

He walked inside the cave and saw the terrifying lion king. The lion never

saw this kind of thing before, he was frightened now; and asked, “Why are you

here? And who are you? And…” Before he could even finish his speech, the g oat

answered; “I am the goat empress, and I have come to see you…” “See me?” asked

the lion, “Yes,” replied the goat ‘empress’; “I can live no much longer, and

even walking; but, before I die, I want to eat: 100 elephants, 75 wild oxen, 63

wild pigs, and 25 lions. Now I had already had: Elephants, wild oxen, and wild

pigs; I am looking for a lion to eat now!” the lion was so frightened.

“You know what empress, I am too dirty, and I should probably wash up

before you…You know, Gulp! Eat me up!” as he said those words, he backed up

towards the mouth of the cave, and rushed out immediately with his back legs

between his jaws…

Along the way, he bumped into a jackal, the jackal asked; “Hey, I am the

cranky jackal dear king; and what has gotten you in such a fright?” the lion

took a breath and answered, “There was a goat ‘empress’ in my cave that wants to

eat me!” “The goat empress? I never heard of such a thing!”

The lion replied, “Then come with me to the cave… Gulp!”

And so the lion led the jackal to his cave, the goat ‘empress’ saw them

coming, and answered; “Jackal, what do you think you’re doing? I asked you to

bring me 25 lions, but you just brought me one! I’m going to eat you both up for

breakfast!” the lion trembled and shouted at the jackal, “Jackal, you tricked me

into this trap?! How dare!”

At these words the jackal ran away, and the lion ran to a place far, far

away…

Dear Editor-in-Chief,

Congratulations on the 5th anniversary of Global Mirror!

I’m a regular reader of your newspaper. I like it so much that I hardly miss any copy.

There are many advantages of Global Mirror. Firstly, Global Mirror covers both national and international news. By simply turning the pages, I can know all important things that have happened both home and abroad. Besides, the success stories of world-famous people are also attractive to me, which help me learn a lot from them. In a word, thanks to Global Mirror, we are well-informed and keep up with the changing world.

As a young student, I wish that I can be a master of English language. Therefore, I suggest that Global Mirror provide articles about English learning for us.

Finally, I hope that Global Mirror will become more and more popular. Thank you for your time!

Sincerely yours,

Dear Ms. Fu,

亲爱的付老师，

I would like you to know that I appreciate the help and support you gave to

me when I was in junior high school. I enjoyed being taught by you immensely.

and positive mind.

I would like to convey my heartfelt gratitude to you for teaching me what

is responsibility. You helped me how to find the best place for myself and look

for the personal values. I remember you gave me a book as a present of the

Spring Festival. You are the first teacher who gave me a present which I was

moved for a long time.

我衷心的感谢你教会了我什么是责任。你帮我找到最适合自己的位置并和个人价值。我记得你曾给我一本书作为春节的礼物。你是第一个给我礼物的老师，这让我感动了很久。

I would further say that you gave me so good memories that I wish I could

Where There is Life, There is Music

What is music, no one can explain.

Just imagine for a moment that you are sitting in a magnificent concert

hall. The conductor waves his shiny baton with a graceful swing through the air.

A beautiful melody floats slowly around you

You sit quietly with your eyes shut, your heart open. The delicate vibratos

of the violins carry you to a mood of heavenly bliss. An airy solo of the flute

draws you to the imagination, the notes flow like some jumping swallows dancing

and singing calling for the coming of Spring.

I like music from my childhood. My father often says when I was a baby I

would never go to sleep without soft, beautiful lullabies crooning around my

ears . Now music is a part of my life. When I feel tired, disappointed or in low

spirits, I usually turn to music. Music, nothing but only music can have so

wonderful an effect on my heart, on my pond of feeling.

Music comes with us. Where there is life, there is music. Where there is

music, there is hope. It lies in everyday life, in everyone’s life, in

everything we see, in everything we hear-- in the rhythm of the sea, in the

whisper of a gentle wind, in the melody of a bird’s singing, in the harmony of

village chimes. You can hear music wherever you may go . A man who doesn’t know

music will lose half the world. A nation that pays little or no attention to

music will be a sad nation. A world without music would be the one for the dead

and devils.

So dear friends, let’s open our arms to embrace music and enjoy it

throughout our lives. Love music and love life.

Thank you.

哪里有生活，哪里就有音乐

音乐是什么，无人能解释清楚。

想象此刻你正坐在富丽堂皇的音乐大厅里，乐队指挥手中的闪闪发亮的指挥棒在空中优雅的舞动。悠扬悦耳的音调飘扬在你的周围。

静静地闭上双眼，敞开心扉。小提琴精妙的振颤会把你带入到天堂祈福的心境;大提琴微弱低沉的叹息会使你想起一位老人在风中散步，沉浸在童年时代宁静和挚爱的回忆中;长笛轻快的独奏使你从想象中猛醒;流畅的音符像一群飞舞歌唱的燕子在呼唤春天的来临。

从童年时代音乐就是我的挚爱。父亲经常说，我在襁褓中，没有温柔甜美的摇篮曲在耳边低吟，就难以入眠。现在音乐是我生活的一部分。每当我感到疲倦，失望或情绪不振时，我就求助于音乐。音乐，除了音乐，没有什么对我的身心和情感有如此奇妙的影响。

音乐与我们同在，哪里有生活，哪里就有音乐;哪里有音乐，哪里就有希望。它存在于每个人的日常生活，存在于我们耳闻目睹的一切事物之中;存在于海的波涛，清风细语，悦耳鸟鸣，和谐的乡村钟声之中;无论你身在何处，都会听到音乐。一个不了解音乐的人将失去半个世界。一个不重视音乐的民族将是一个悲哀的民族。一个没有音乐的世界将是逝者和恶人生存的世界。

亲爱的朋友，让我们伸开双臂去拥抱音乐，在人生中享受音乐的乐趣。热爱音乐，热爱生活。

谢谢大家。

Dear Mr. Cousins,

Since you are a well-known musician, I’m writing this e-mail to ask you for

some advice on how to form a band. I, together with two boys and two girls in

different classes in our school, want to form a band. We are all fond of pop

music and modern dance.

I’d like to know whether we should play one kind of music or different

styles to start with. And is it enough to practise only at weekends? How can we

get more chances to perform? We’d appreciate it if you would come up with a name

for our band. Looking forward to your reply.

Best wishes!

Yours sincerely,

I used to pouring away the water directly after I using it. Someday, my

mother asked me to help her wash the clothes, as I was about to pour away the

water, my mother stopped me and she told me that most water can be recycled. It

can be used to water the flower or to wash other things. From then on, I realize

how to save water.

我过去常常在用完水后直接倒掉水。有一天，妈妈叫我帮助她洗衣服，就在我要去倒掉水的时候，妈妈阻止了我，她告诉我说大部分水可以循环利用。那么水可以用来浇花或者洗别的东西。从那时候起，我就意识到如何节约用水。

Dear Sue,

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，

I said: No, I will have spicy kebabs. Without saying a word, you took me to the cake king. After buying the cake you let me carry, I put a pout, head a low pretend not to hear, not only did not pay you; And threw the door and ran out. Back at home, you give me cooking; Fill me with rice; Help me to my dish... Looking at your busy figure, my heart is very sad, you work day and night for me, but I...... Mother I am not sensible; Well, Im sorry... Mom, is you raise me, is you a mouthful of rice feed me grew up, you for my laundry, cooking, after going to school, regardless of the wind, rain, you pick me up on time every day to school, school, evening but also help me write homework, teach me some truth, you pay too much for me too much...... Thank you for giving me life, for giving me happiness, for giving me the chance to make my life worth living.

Thank you for raising me and being my first teacher, teaching me how to live and how to be grateful.

A mothers love is like a gentle, a mothers love is a poem, the poem have not finished writing, tears down slowly, the years in a hurry, some things will dissipate over time, my mother gave me love and will never disappear, a mothers love is like the sun in the sky, always warm my heart, a mothers love, like the sea, and endless, unfathomable, but contained all my fault, a mothers love is like snow mountain in one thousand, glittering and translucent and transparent. Some people say: a mothers love is like a poem, a mothers love is like a song. I would like to say: how can a small poem write a mothers love, how can a piece of music sing a mothers love, a picture, how can draw a mother? A thousand words come in one sentence: mom, I love you!

I wish you a successful New Year and good health.

On the top of the mountain hill lived a little boy called Marlin. He was a

jolly fellow that helped people when they were in need.

The only problem was, whenever there was somebody in need, he would give

them something to eat so as to solve their problems. The people in his country

soon became sick of this, and so wanted him to stop. But Marlin just won’t; and

went on helping and helping and helping… nobody knew when he was going to stop,

or when they were going to let him know that they didn’t want him to bother all

day. Ugh, but Marlin wouldn’t stop; all day long he helped this and that, the

problem was that people don’t want to mordacity him, and they said that he was

very kind.

One day, Marlin saw a boy crying, and said, “Hey there little one; don’t

cry, I, the super Marlin is here! And I am going to solve your problem!” “I want

a music box,” at these words, Marlin was astonished, “A-a music b-box?” “Yes,”

replied the boy jumping happily, “But my parents won’t buy me one. It is at the

shop near Sunshine school. I hope to get me one! Wahoo!” Marlin said, “I

couldn’t afford a music box! It is worth $100!”

Marlin was very sad, but also wanted to try, for he was the king of

everything, and helps save the day. He ran to his house, and counted his money,

but found out that he only had $10. He was now very, very angry. He had decided

to earn more and more money, and so to help that poor little boy. As he had

promised, he worked very hard to earn money. Although he was just a little boy,

he ought to do what he had said; for those are the rules. And when he had enough

money, he would buy the music box, and hand it to that poor boy.

Marlin did anything he could to earn money: Sweep the floor, clean his

room; grow plants, water them, and cut flowers for the house. When he had

already $90, he had decided to help other people. When it was already winter, he

took a shovel and helped his neighbors, friends to shovel snow; and they paid

him a great deal of money.

At last, Marlin had got enough money; he was so excited that he hopped here

and there ten times! Finally, he went to the store near Sunshine school, and

bought the music box, and then handed it to the same boy at his home. Marlin

soon became famous, and he was called, ‘Marlin Blavatsky.’

Everyone has some unforgettable experiences.Me too! Today I am glad to

share my experiences now .

They are all unique , but they are not always the most important things .

In the morning, we got to the hotel where we lived. After breakfast, we began to

our travel. First we took the bus to the Sea Park. There are so many different

kinds of fishes that I couldn’t believe my eyes. We also saw the show of

dolphins. Then we had lunch in a restaurant. The seafood which was very famous

in China was delicious.After lunch we went swimming. The sea was blue and beach

was golden. We all enjoyed ourselves in the sea. Finally we went back the hotel

where we lived.

We had a happy day.In this trip, we also went to some places which were

interesting and famous in Dalian, went shopping and so on.Several days later, we

left Dalian. On our way home, we were very happy. This was the reason why we

didn’t feel tired. In all, we had a good holiday. One of my most unforgettable

experiences occurred on my five years old,.One Sunday afternoon, this is my

first time to play computer. Dad said: "this is a mouse, this is the

keyboard......"

Then, dad in a hurry go out, the story of a rich lessons took place. I sit

at the computer in front, according to pass together, the result out an reads

something, I feel very curious, and then press the ok. Then, an icon on the

computer screen immediately, it turns out the key is to take away the "junk" on

the computer screen. Too good, I want to take away all the "junk". Then I

according to the steps to remove just now. I can be entertained, and also called

out: "I I ..." In a short time, I was confused: why online neighbors and my

computer and how to the recycle bin not. When dad came back, I happily tell dad

I help clean up garbage process, computers dad hit the ceiling result,

originally I not clear "junk", but my dad spent most of the genius has installed

the software yesterday, dad immediately called me a dog blood spray head.

Through this thing I got a lesson: curiosity is not no, but some people are

just ran a curse because of curiosity, so we are curious to curious, dont more

hands feet, so as not to trouble.

I am sure this is event is one of my unforgettable experiences all my

life!

Dear Mr. Cao

happy new year!

On the night of new years Eve, my parents and I went to Lianhua Mountain

to visit Deng Xiaoping after the reunion. The streets are deserted, and many

people have returned to their hometown. I think of the 23rd day of the twelfth

lunar month when my grandparents were busy cleaning the house and buying all

kinds of new years products. I am curious: why is the Spring Festival so busy?

Why are so many people desperate to buy tickets back home for the new year? What

are the customs and traditions of Chinese Spring Festival? Why do my parents

take me to pay a new years visit to grandfather Deng?

With these questions, I immediately found a book about Chinese Spring

Festival folklore when I went home. The book introduces many customs, including

pasting New Year pictures. It is said that the characters in the New Year

pictures can ward off evil spirits, eat reunion dinner, legend of new year

animals, offering sacrifices to the kitchen and sweeping the Chen, meeting the

God of wealth, etc. One of the most impressive is the kitchen and sweeping the

Chen.

Among the people, the traditional Spring Festival begins on the 23rd of the

twelfth lunar month and ends with the Lantern Festival. As the saying goes, "23,

sacrifice to the kitchen official." The kitchen official is the monitoring God

of the world. At this time of year, the kitchen official will go to heaven to

report everything on earth, so the people will worship him on the 23rd of the

twelfth lunar month. No matter how small the household is, they should clean up

the stove, several cases, pots and pans, and prepare kitchen cakes and sugar for

sacrifice. The kitchen cake is the dry food that the kitchen god wants to bring,

and the kitchen sugar should be put on the kitchen gods mouth. The cooking

sugar is made from malt. It tastes very sweet and sticky. It is put on the

kitchen gods mouth to let him "say good things from heaven and keep peace in

the lower world".

After the sacrifice, the kitchen was cleaned up. In the old days, it was

called "sweeping Chen", and "Chen" was homophonic with "dust", so sweeping Chen

was to sweep the dust in an all-round way. This is more detailed and

comprehensive than the usual cleaning. The places that are not easy to clean at

ordinary times, such as spider webs on the roof, dust, furniture corners, doors

and windows, etc., should be wiped clean with bamboo poles and rags. Bed sheets

and quilt covers will also be removed and cleaned. Some people even paint the

walls and paint doors and windows to make the interior look brand new.

There is no custom of offering sacrifices to the kitchen in our family. We

will "sweep the Chen" every year. This is the traditional virtue of the Chinese

nation, which loves to be clean and clean. In the future, I will also help my

family to clean up the house together.

There are also a lot of folk stories, I will tell you slowly after the

beginning of school.

Best wishes

Good health and good luck!
