This afternoon, MOM and dad took me to the Mountain Park. After meandering of a shady path, we climbed up the mountain.Along the way, some unknown flowers are shouted at me and smiled! birds melodious singing seemed to welcome my arrival, the fragrance of delicious odor melts your heart all into, flora footpath, a butterfly in a dance.  Everywhere trees ocean breeze blowing leaves rustled like and sing with the birds, really beautiful! on a walk in the beautiful forest path, as though we were getting into paradise.

Summer is coming up, it was getting hot, and the mountain under the tree back and forth to get busy, several obscure bugs out, dad took his camera took some unknown bugs, actually photographed a lizard messed upand dropped the run out of the ride, commonly known as "lizard", this is the first time I saw it in the wild! Standing on the peak, and it was around, look at the past of the city also has a very special feeling, xinanjiang squiggles goes the distance, both sides of the feijia River like a rainbow across the hengjiang, Hui camel stands quietly, watching the eyes back and forth, busy people.

Shanghai rain cats and dogs, I was very happy, because of the wonderful cruise trip!

The swimming pool is a favorite of my good friends. Sailing day afternoon, we swim in the swimming pool. Although the weather is very hot, but jumped into the swimming pool, cool like drinking ice pop! Everyone made a diving game, than who can pick up first to the bottom of the goggles. Everyone take a big breath, spoiling for sink to the bottom, scrambling to get glasses. Then, we have rather than swimming. At first, everyone chants: "123!" Then quickly jumped into the water, with one to swim up, everyone is afraid of his name into the final, struggling to move forward. Tired, we lie in the surf pool again. Surf pool rolled splash of white, like spring warm. Sometimes, sit at the outlet, the water pouring into your back, just like massage.

Unconsciously hungry, so we went to the cafeteria. Cafeteria with all sorts of delicious desserts and fruits. A waiter aunt taught we make tea with milk. We drank his milk tea, good sweet sweet! The most interesting is a good friend to eat a dish and a plate of French fries, just like a big stomach king!

上海下起了倾盆大雨，我却非常高兴，因为美妙的邮轮旅行开始啦!

游泳池是我和好朋友们的最爱。航海日的下午，我们在游泳池里戏水。天气虽然很热，但是跳进游泳池里，凉爽得就像喝了冰汽水!大家做起了潜水游戏，比比谁先能捡到水底的泳镜。每个人都深吸一大口气，憋足了劲往水底沉，争先恐后地去抢眼镜。接着，我们又比起了游泳。刚开始，大家齐声喊：“123!”然后都飞快地跳进水里，你追我赶地游了起来，每个人都生怕自己变成最后一名，奋力地往前游。游累了，我们又躺进了冲浪池。冲浪池里翻滚着白色的水花，就像温泉一样暖和。有时，坐在出水口，喷涌而出的水流打到你的背上，就跟按摩一样舒服。

不知不觉游饿了，于是大家来到了自助餐厅。自助餐厅里摆着各种各样美味的甜点和水果。一位服务员阿姨教了我们制作奶茶。我们喝着自己做的奶茶，好甜好甜!最好玩的是有个好朋友吃了一盘又一盘的薯条，就像个大胃王!

Chinese Families and American Families

提纲

1。 中国家庭与美国家庭的共性。

2。 中国家庭与美国家庭的个性。

Both Chinese families and American families are smaller than they used to be。 Most young Chinese parents have only one child， while young Americans also prefer to have fewer children than their parents have。

However， unlike the Chinese young people， many young American couples think it is not easy to get along with their parents。 They will leave their parents and have their own homes once they get married。 Many of them would almost never live with their parents again。 It is a sad thing indeed。

Things are different in China。 Both the young and the old admit the problems between them， but they will try to understand each other。 Besides， sons and daughters in China will feel that they must take care of their old parents while old people cannot help wanting to do some thing for their busy children。 So it is still very common in todays China to see married sons and daughters living with their parents。 However， China no longer has families where four generations live under the same roof。

Based on historical documents, modern survey and statistics, as well as the result of predecessor studies, the trend and main process of forest dynamics are recognized. The forest area and forest coverage rates for each province of China from 1700 to 1949 are es- timated backward by every 50 years. Linking the result with modern National Forest Inventory data, the spatial-temporal dynamics of Chinese forest in recent 300 years (AD 1700–1998) is quantitatively analyzed. The study shows that in recent 300 years, the forest area in current territory of China has declined by 0.95×108 hm2 (or 9.2% of the coverage rate) in total, with a trend of decrease and recovery. Before the 1960s, there was a trend of accelerated de- scending. The forest area was reduced by 1.66×108 hm2 (or 17% of the coverage rate) in 260 years. While after the 1960s, there has been a rapid increase. The forest area increased by 0.7×108 hm2 (or 8% of the coverage rate) in 40 years. The study also shows that there is a significant spatial difference in the dynamics of forest. The amplitudes of increasing and de- creasing in western China are both smaller than the ones in eastern China. During the rapid declining period from 1700 to 1949, the most serious decrease appeared in the Northeast, the Southwest and the Southeast, where the coverage rate in most provinces dropped over 20%. In Heilongjiang Province, the coverage rate dropped by 50%. In Jilin Province, it dropped by 36%. In Sichuan Province and Chongqing Municipality, it dropped by 42%. In Yunnan Prov- ince, it dropped by 35%. During the recovery period 1949–1998, the western provinces, mu- nicipality and autonomous regions, including Ningxia, Gansu, Inner Mongolia, Si- chuan–Chongqing, Yunnan, Tibet, Xinjiang and Qinghai, etc, the increase rates are all below 5%, while the eastern provinces, municipality and autonomous regions (except Heilongjiang, Hubei, Jiangsu–Shanghai) have achieved an increase over 5%, among which the Guang- dong–Hainan, Guangxi, Anhui, Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei, Shandong, Henan, Zhejiang, and Fu- jian have an increase over 10%.

The Americans are much in love with food. This is part of being American too. Baseball is Americans national pastime1, but whats a ball game without hot dogs, peanuts2 and Cracker Jacks (sweetened popcorn3)? Hollywood is Americas symbol of glamour4 and excitement all over the world, but who would watch a movie in America without asking for an extra large bag of popcorn? And the astronauts took instant orange drink [Tang] with them.

Americans love all kinds of food, Italian, Chinese, Mexican, Greek, French, Japanese and many others. The Americans are in fact

“The UN of Food.”

To get familiar with the American eating custom, one must know two things. First, one must know the sequence5 of service. There is something special in terms of the sequence, or order, of dish service in America compared with ours. Here is the order:

1. Aperitif6—a small cup of alcoholic drink to increase ones appetite7. The host or hostess will ask: “Do you like a cup of aperitif?”

2. Hors doeuvre8—some tasty food offered in small quantities at the beginning of a meal.

3. Appetizer —or called starter, it is a small serving of juice, fruit or seafood or something else, at the beginning of a meal, to stimulate9 peoples appetite.

4. Now the main course is under way:

a) Soup—it is usually the first course in a dinner.

b) Fish—it is usually served after the soup and before the entree10 in a formal meal.

c) Entree—the third course of a meal, generally it is made up of a hot meat.

d) Savory11—the last course in a formal meal, it is something pleasant to eat but with a salty rather than sweet taste.

5. Dessert12 —sweet food served toward the end of a meal, usually it is a pudding, chocolate cake, or cheese and biscuits sometimes.

6. Coffee—thats the last stage in a formal present-day European and American dinner. Its served either at table or in the living room.

In a family treatment, the above-mentioned No 1-3 stage may be omitted13, though No 4 is the essential part. And the main course generally includes no more than 5 dishes of nutrient14 food. Ostentation15 is never under consideration.

Another thing to mention is that serving oneself from ones own plate is popular in Europe and America, except for the soup and bread which is taken and enjoyed according to ones need.

The second one we must know about the American eating custom is the taboos at table.

(1) Dont circle your plate with your arm. If you do so, you will become the focus16 of the table. Everyone would wonder: “Is there anything wrong with the food?” This may give a false message that you dont like the food or something like that.

(2) Dont push the plate back when finished. Leave it where it was. Do you mean to remind17 the hostess that youve just completed a labor?

(3)Dont lean18 back and announce that “Im through” or “Im stuffed19.” Just put the fork and knife quietly across the plate, thats all.

(4) Dont cut up everything before you start to eat. Cut only one or two bites20 at a time.

(5) Never take huge mouthfuls of anything. Do you mean to show how hungry you are? Dont do that! Be gentlemanlike or ladylike.

(6) Dont crook21 your finger when picking up a cup or glass. That looks too affected22, far from ladylike!

(7) Never wear too much lipstick23 to the table. It may stain the napkins24 and look gaudy25 and embarrassing on the rims26 of the cup or glass.

(8) Its never acceptable to reach across the table for anything (a serving dish, for example). If the item you want is not at hand, simply ask for the nearest person for help, like “Mrs. Smith, would you mind passing me the butter (or a dish)?”

In last summer vacation ,I went to Beijing with my family. First ,we went to the Great Wall,where we met a lot of foreigners and we also took a lot of photos. They all like our culture and beautiful senery. Second.we went to the summer palace ,where the previous emporers spent summer in the old days.Third, we went to the Forbidden City .Finally ,we went to Wangfujing Street where we tasted much delicious food. In a word, we had a great time during the vacation and we leanred a lot from this tour.(大约一百零几个词。)去年的暑假我和家人去了北京，首先我们去了长城在那我们见到了许多外国人并在那拍了很多照。这些外国人很喜欢我们的文化和美景，接下来我们又去了颐和园那是旧时帝王们避暑的地方。接着我们去了故宫，最后我们去了王府井，在那我们尝了很多美味的小吃。总之，这次旅游我们玩得很高兴。并从中学到了很多。

Friday noon, dad for coming to meet me at the school to travel to ningbo.

I take bus driving on the highway for an hour, in the famous hangzhou bay bridge, bridge on the east China sea, like a huge dragon across the hangzhou bay, majestic. From a distance has past island, under a bridge with the apron and buoy. Coach took 20 minutes to complete 36 km bridge in yuyao. I first came to the Ming and qing dynasties inherited Confucius temple, the threshold of the temple of Confucius is very high, the leg up too high to cross into, the tour guide said, this is because the Confucius temple are the sites of ancient learning, there are a lot of knowledge can go in.

On Saturday, we left the old bund - three yuyao to ningbo. We took a cruise ship, see the beautiful buildings on both sides of the Taiwan new rows, make the person feels refreshing, just like our Shanghai pudong. In the evening, we return to Shanghai on the way to the jinshan delicious dinner, the farmers there is cooking stove, burn out food meal delicious, I ate three bowls of relief, chubby belly up.

On the way home, I feel this travel very happy, not only see the magnificent ancient bridge and place for reading, and distinctive taste in food.

星期五中午，爸爸来学校接我去宁波旅游。

我乘坐客车在高速公路上开了一个小时，到了著名的杭州湾大桥，大桥架在东海上，像一条巨龙跨越杭州湾，气势磅礴。远远望去有一座座小岛，在桥下有停机坪和浮标。 客车用了二十分钟跑完了全长三十六公里的大桥到了余姚。我先来到明清遗留下来的孔庙，孔庙的门槛都很高，要把腿抬得很高才能跨进去，导游说，这是因为孔庙是古代人学习的场所，有很多学问的人才能进去。

星期六，我们离开了余姚到了宁波的老外滩——三江源。我们乘游船，看到了两岸一幢幢漂亮的新楼鳞次栉比，使人感到耳目一新，就像我们上海的浦东。 晚上，我们回上海的途中去了金山的农家乐吃饭，那里的农民是用灶台做饭的，烧出的菜饭香喷喷的，我一口气吃了三碗，涨得肚子圆滚滚的。

在回家的路上，我感到这次旅游非常快乐，不仅看到了雄伟的跨海大桥和古代人读书的场所，而且品尝到有特色的饭菜。

Last summer holiday, I went to HaiNan with my family. The weather was pleasant! The sky was blue more than I could describe, the sea was blue and bright more than I could believe. Walking by the sea is just like being in the oil painting! We sailed to an island called Xidao. I swam there. Swimming in the sea is quite different from that in a pool. Bedsides swimming, we also had a good meal there. We had a nice seafood dish.

And I bought back many beautiful shells. If you want to have a look, you may ask me. Or, we may go to Hainan together, for I am always hoping to come to that place again. I really like that place, a place of blue and brightness.

Old People in America

In the old days,American families were bigger. People had more children,and grandparents and great-grandparents lived with their families. But now, families are smaller, and many old people

live alone. At the same time, Americans are living longer and longer. The number of old people is always growing.

Some old people like to stay in their old homes. They do not want to move from their old homes. They do not want to move from their hometown. They are near their .friends and family. But some do not have a lot of friends. They want to meet new people. They want to live in a quiet place with other people of their age.

A large number of old people are moving to the South. It is warm there. You do not have to walk through the snow in winter,or pay a lot of money for heating.

A large number of old people are moving to the South only for old people. One of these is Sun City, near Phoenix, Arizona. All the families in Sun City must have one person over the age of 50 ,and children under 18 years old cant live there.

美国的老人

以前美国都是大家庭，Old People in America(美国的老人)，四六级写作《Old People in America(美国的老人)》。人们孩子很多，祖父母和曾祖父母都和家人在一起生活。但现在，家庭越来越小，许多老人独自生活。与此同时，美国人越活越长。老年人的数目总在不断增长。

有些老人喜欢呆在他们原来的房子里。他们不愿意从旧房子里搬出来。他们不想离开家乡。他们想住在朋友和家人附近。但是有些老人朋友不多，他们想结交新人，他们想和其他同龄的老人共同居住在一个僻静的地方。

很多老人正在迁往南部，那里天气暖和。冬天的时候不需要在雪中走路，也不需要交大笔取暖费。

很多老人正在迁往只允许老人居住的南部城市。其中之一就是亚利桑那州菲尼克斯附近的太阳城。太阳城居住的所有家庭都必须有一个成员在50岁以上，18岁以下的孩子能住在那里。

Most people, when given an opportunity to aid someone in need, are eager to do whatever they can to be of service. Those of us who have chosen to make healing the world a vocation are grateful for any occasion to send light and love to people in our immediate spheres of influence and beyond. As we apply our passion and our principles to this altruistic endeavor, we often forget to send ourselves the same bountiful gifts of wellness, though we ourselves may be in dire need of it. We overlook ourselves, not because we forget, but because we fear that focusing on the self is an indicator of selfishness. It is moreover much more difficult to heal oneself than to heal others because the seeds of uncertainty are more easily banished when we act on anothers behalf. When we send healing light to ourselves, it is important that our intentions and our self-trust be stronger than ever to counteract doubt. As we bless ourselves in this way, we serve as both an active channel and a passive destination. This should not change the way we interact with the valuable energy we wish to receive, however. Though we may be tempted to consciously direct or influence the manner in which light impacts our lives because we know ourselves most intimately, we should not try to control its path. When we draw the white light of protection and purity to our bodies, taking it into ourselves with each inhalation, our belief in the fact that it will naturally move toward areas of dysfunction will ensure that it flows through every muscle and organ. And when we fill our spaces with this light, our environments are cleared of all the negative energy that can sap our strength and our spirit. Surrounded inside and out with healing light, we feel safe and protected, healthy, relaxed, and content just as those who regularly receive such loving gifts from us do. If you sincerely believe that there is a part of yourself that exists independently of upset and illness, the love and light you send yourself will help you connect with it. You will see the affirmative impact of this connection almost immediately when you include yourself in the recipients of your healing gifts, as lifes frustrations become more tolerable and your bliss becomes ever more palpable.

I went to Beijing more than eight times. Beijing is the capital of China. It’s a big city. I am very familiar with Beijing. It takes an hour and forty minutes from Nantong to Beijing by plane. There are many tall buildings in Beijing. It’s a modern city. My family visited the Great Wall, the Summer Palace, the Palace Museum, the Beihai Park, the Space Museum, etc. I went to the countryside of Beijing to go boating and fishing. It was very interesting. I went shopping in WangFuJing. I bought lots of souvenirs and other things. I like eating Beijing snacks. They are delicious. Don’t miss the Beijing Duck. It is really nice.

Santa Claus was born in US in the 1860s he was named this as he had a white beard and a belly,so he was named Santa Claus as this was the Dutch word for St Nicholas,Sintaklaas.Although the Dutch had bought him with them in the 17th century,he did not become an important person at Christmas until the Novelist Washington Irving put him in a novel that he wrote in 1809.This first Santa Claus was still known as St.Nicholas,he did smoke a pipe,and fly around in a wagon without any reindeer,but he did not have his red suit or live at the North Pole,he did however bring presents to children every year.

In 1863 He was given the name Santa Claus and bore the red suit,pipe,and his reindeer and sleigh.

Now Christmas celebrations vary greatly between regions of the United States,because of the variety of nationalities which have settled in it.

In Pennsylvania,the Moravians build a landscape,called a putz - under the Christmas tree,while in the same state the Germans are given gifts by Belsnickle,who taps them with his switch if they have misbehaved.

Early European settlers brought many traditions to the United States.Many settled in the early days in the South,these settlers would send Christmas greetings to their distant neighbors by shooting firearms and letting off fireworks.In Hawaii this practice is still in use as under the sunny skies,Santa Claus arrives by boat and Christmas dinner is eaten outdoors.

In Alaska,a star on a pole is taken from door to door,followed by Herods Men,who try to capture the star.Colonial doorways are often decorated with pineapple,a symbol of hospitality.

In Alaska,boys and girls with lanterns on poles carry a large figure of a star from door to door.They sing carols and are invited in for supper.

今天我们踏进了一个迷人的地方---位于圣地亚戈的巴纳德小学。

刚一下车，一阵春风轻轻拂来，小学两旁栽满了花木，虽已是冬天，但却感觉四季如春，给人画一般的美丽。这时，一个身着西服的男人走了过来，他的模样非常亲切，而他就是这所小学的校长。他和蔼地向我们招招手，便领我们进入了学习的天堂。

刚进教室边，一阵欢快的歌声在我耳畔边不停地回响着，激情的舞姿伴随着灵活的身体，真是让人眼前一亮!接着我们走进了学校的长廊，虽说是在美国，并没有庆祝春节的习俗，但长廊上、教室中依旧张灯结彩，喜迎新春。在那里，我们认识了许多的新朋友，大家一对一地交流，心中的喜悦像奔腾地泉水一般，源源不断，奔流不息。

时光总在那一霎那停顿，又在那一霎那溜走，我们必需得离开这令人陶醉的校园，我恋恋不会舍地望着身后的校园，想把这份美好的记忆永久地珍藏。

Mobile Phone Obsession

As the drawing presents, there is a man walking across the street absorbedly focusing on his cell phone without noticing the surroundings. This sort of phenomenon is not uncommon and rare in some metropolis, especially among the youngsters.

What the picture illustrates is the prevailing situation that has long existed in todays China. That is the mobile phone obsession. With the advent of information age, people are becoming

increasingly fascinated on the electronic products, especially the cell phones. Not surprisingly, you could easily notice that most of us are obsessed in sending messages, playing online games with their mobile phones. It cannot be denied that this phenomenon may negatively impact the relationship among people, and therefore they will become estranged and isolated.

Personally, in view of the overuse of mobile phones, I hold that we individuals should raise the necessary awareness that good relationships are reinforced by sincere and face-to-face

communication.

It was a fine day! I went to several places of interest such as the Great Wall and Tiananmen square.I was amazed by Chinas historical background and the industrious Chinese people who built the Great Wall. People are very friendly here. I was greeted by amiable people who were nice enough to tell me about the history of China and by modest students who later practiced speaking English with me.
