Dear Ms Wang,

To support my application, I enclose the fax my sister sent. Yours respectfully, Li Fei

亲爱的王小姐，

每人都有梦想，但每个人的梦想都可能会随着时间的久远而改变，每个人的梦想都是美好的。可是不经过努力的梦想，那就不叫梦想。

当然，我也有许多的梦想，我曾经想过当一位老师，教出许多栋梁之才，成为祖国的精英;也曾想过当一名警察，把天下所有的坏人绳之以法，但当一名医生却是我最大的梦想!

那是一天早上，老妈叫我去看望吴利阿姨，她住院了。我十分不情愿的去了。一走进医院就有一种死气沉沉的感觉，不由自主的打了一个冷战，这有点像在拍恐怖电影。算了还是快去快回吧!医院太可怕了。走进病房，里面有3个病人，阿姨就在其中，正开心的玩着她的手机。

还有心情玩手机，想想就被旁边一堆病人吓到了。什么情况，怎么这么开心，看来是有什么开心的事请咯。这时候，我眼睛扫了一下四周，发现一双颤抖的手正拿着水杯，啪，水杯摔在了地上。我连忙跑去帮她收拾东西，之后，找了一个水杯帮她将接了一杯温水。她接过水杯，用微弱颤抖的声音向我说了一声“谢谢”，我说：“不用谢”。然后又坐回了阿姨身边，但视线一直在那个老奶奶身上。

老奶奶正失落的望着窗外，她似乎很渴望在外边走一走，但却因为身体太过虚弱只能躺在这冷清的病房里。也不知道她得了什么病，看着她似乎很痛苦。从那之后我决定当医生，拯救人们宝贵的生命，因为医生为国为人做出了贡献，医生拯救伤病患者，解除痛苦，拯救生命。这足以让我萌生梦想，我们因为崇敬他们，比如屠呦呦获奖让我更加确定了当一名医生愿望。

人人都有梦想，人人都能实现梦想。只要自己努力了，梦想还没有实现，那也不要伤心。回想起自己曾经拼搏过、努力过，就是对自己最好的回报，也是梦想之路上美好的回忆。

Dear Mr. Lai,

尊敬的赖老师：

I am writing this letter just want to say thanks to you. I am going to graduate in two weeks. You have been my class adviser for three years. During these three years you have spent lots of energy on us. You are not only teaching knowledge in the class, but also care our life. Sometimes we are afraid of you, because of your strict requirement for our study. However, you are so helpful in the daily life. No matter what difficulties we are in, you will help if you can. So, I also want to say sorry to you for making so much trouble. But you bear all my trouble. I don’t know what kind of class adviser I will meet in the future study, but I will remember and appreciate you forever. I want to say thank you again.

我写这封信只是想跟你说声谢谢。还有两周我就要毕业了。你做了我三年的班主任。在这三年你花了那么多精力在我们身上。你不仅仅在课堂上传授我们知识，而且在生活上也很关心我们。不过有时候我们有点怕你，因为你对我们学习的严格要求。不过，在日常生活中你是那么的乐于助人。无论我们遇到什么样的困难，只要能够帮得上忙你都会帮我们。所以，我还想对你说声对不起，给你带来那么多的麻烦。但是你都一一包容了。我不知道我会在今后的学习中遇到什么样的班主任，但是我会一直记得你、感激你的。我想再次说声谢谢。

My family has five members: father, mother, grandfather, grandmother, of course, I. Everyone have their own characteristics, form a happy family.

Mother attaches great importance to the growth of I, every morning to go to work, come back at night, already very tired, but also trained my ability of learning. She gave up her job, for me to make a home every night to supervise my study. To work closer to home, my mother not afraid of hard work, run back and forth among the various sites. In addition to these, in order to save more money, she tired every day. She is a good mother, and a great mother.

In my impression, my father is particularly mild one, my mother is responsible for my study, my father is responsible for my extracurricular sports. In order to let me do more exercise in the holiday, he gave up several important meetings, took me to sport. He said: "during the holidays should not be lying down, sitting alone, want to go out more exercise. Exercise more to have a healthier body. For example the examination, you body is not healthy, it tests too." In addition to these, dad taught me a lot of extra-curricular knowledge, for me, he is like a "encyclopedia". Have all kinds of knowledge.

Grandpa, "head of interior" in my house. Up early do breakfast for us every day in the morning, do the housework. Noon also not idle, help grandma watering the flowers, mop the floor... In a word, grandpa in every day is very busy. Take care of my life every day, ten years like one day. I think my grandpa is very great.

Grandma is responsible for all kinds of household chores, sewing clothes, tidy up home... Is she in the busy every day, the room is in good order, clean and tidy. Grandma in addition to do household chores, also taught me a lot of life philosophy: perhaps not very deep, but in life, work well.

I love my family! At home with my family, my obsession. Is one of my most important wealth!

我的家庭有五个成员：爸爸、妈妈、爷爷、奶奶，当然还有我。每个人都有各自的性格特点，组成一个幸福的家庭。

妈妈非常重视我的成长，每天早上上班，晚上回来，本来就非常劳累了，还要训练我的学习能力。为了我她放弃了外地的工作，就是为了每天晚上能回到家监督我的学习。为了让工作地点离家近一些，妈妈不畏辛苦，在各种工地之中来回跑。除了这些，她为了多攒些钱，每天劳累的要命。她是一个好妈妈，伟大的妈妈。

在我印象中，爸爸是特别温和的一个人，妈妈负责我的学习，爸爸则负责我的课外运动。为了让我在假期中多做运动，他放弃了好几次重要的会议，带着我去运动。他说：“在假期里不能光躺着、坐着，要多出去运动。多运动才能有更健康的身体。比如说你该考试了，身体不健康就考不好了。”除了这些，爸爸还教给我很多课外知识，对于我来说，他像一个“百科全书”。拥有各种知识。

爷爷，在我家“主管内务”。每天早上起的早早的为我们做早饭，做家务。中午也不闲着，帮奶奶浇花，拖地……总之，爷爷在每天都是非常忙的。每天都照顾我的生活，十年如一日。我觉得我的爷爷很伟大。

奶奶负责各种家务活，缝衣服，收拾家……每天都是她在忙碌，屋子里才会井井有条、干净整洁。奶奶除了做家务以外，还教给我很多人生哲理：也许不很深奥，但在生活中，很管用。

我爱我家!家里有我的亲人、我的牵挂。是我最重要的财富!

在夏天天气很热。人们不喜欢在夏天的下午,因为温度高。

有时太阳后下雨了,很凉爽!也许在一个夏天的夜晚,雷声和闪电。它是让人可怕,危险!所以请不要外出时雷声。

虽然在夏天的天气是热的,但我认为夏天是有趣的,因为我们可以在泳池里游泳!这是非常好的!

My Father

There is always a brilliant image living in my heart. That is my dear father. Seen through the eyes of many other people, father seems to be a very ordinary person. But he is quite extraordinary in my eyes, I have never lost my wonder at his good-personalities such as diligence, devotion, care, optimism ever since my childhood.Being a farmer, father works very hard in the fields all the year round. He works from dawn till dusk every day and even till midnight when it is the harvest season. He seldom enjoys leisure with other farmers even if the farm work is not much. He chooses to live a busy life with reluctance to stop for a while.

Father devotes all himself to our family. As we are poor, he always tries his best to support our family and afford the tuitions for my brother and me. For the whole family, for brother and me, he never stops working laboriously in the fields throughout the year. Now he has got a wrinkled face and white hair because of excessive hard work, looking much older and weaker than any other person of his age. In spite of all this, father never complains to us. It is his full devotion that were living a better life now. It is his full devotion that both my brother and I are able to study at college.Father shows much care to us children and my mother as well. Whenever there is any delicious food on the table, he just leaves it to us while he takes the simple one himself. If my brother and I fall ill, he will not hesitate a moment to get some medicine for us or take us to see the doctor. My mother suffers a bad disease. Father looks after her very carefully. He never lets mother do any heavy work both at home and in the field. Mother appreciates him m much that she often praises him as a model husband before others.

Father is a person full of optimism. He never complains about our poor life. He is never frustrated by trouble. He often tells us that everything will be all right if we have enough confidence in life. Due to his optimism, we are all confident to face our life and work.

We all think that father is not in the least an ordinary man. He plays an extraordinary role in my family. We cant have anything without him. Now Im pursuing further studies at college far away from father. I miss him very much. And I often see him in my dreams. His great image is deeply carved in my mind.

我父亲的光辉形象永远是一种生活在我的心里吧.”那是我亲爱的爸爸.在许多其他人的眼中,父亲似乎是一个很普通的人.但在我的眼里他很特别,自从我的童年他在我眼中一直都是勤奋、敬业、保健、乐观.

作为一个农民,父亲在田里工作很努力.收获的季节，他每天从早到晚工作,直到午夜时.他很少像其他的农民享受休闲,即使在农场工作不多的时候.他选择一个繁忙的生活不情愿停下来。

父亲为了我们这个家奉献了他的全部.当我们贫穷时,他总是尽自己最大的努力来支持我们的家庭和支付我哥哥和我的学费.为整个家庭,为哥哥和我,他总是不停地在地里工作一整年.现在他因为过度辛勤工作已经有了一个满是皱纹的脸和白色毛发,岁,比任何其他与他相同的年龄的人.虽有这一切的事,父亲从不抱怨.这是他的全部奉献,我们正处在一个更好的生活.这是他的全部奉献,我的兄弟和我都能在大学读书。

父亲十分关心我们，和我母亲一样.每当有什么好吃的食物放在桌子上,他只是让我们吃自己吃少点.如果我和我兄弟生病,他会毫不犹豫地让拿些药给我们或带我们去看医生.我的母亲受严重的疾病.父亲照料得很认真.他从不让妈妈在家里和田间做什么繁重的工作.感谢他的母亲,她经常在别人面前称赞他为模范丈夫。

父亲是一个十分乐观的人.他从不抱怨我们贫穷的生活.他从未灰心丧气.他经常告诉我们,一切都会好起来的,如果我们有足够的信心.由于他的乐观,我们都是自信的面对我们的生活和工作。我们都认为,父亲是不平凡的人.他在我的家庭中具有非常重要的作用.我们能不能有什么东西.现在我继续进修大学远离的父亲.我怀念他.我经常看到他在我的梦.他的伟大的形象深深刻在我的脑海里.

评语： 本文作者以朴实的语言充满感情地刻画了父亲的不平凡的形象，分别从四个不同的角度描述了父亲的勤劳、奉献、关爱和乐观。内容真实感人，行文简洁流畅，结构清晰，组织有条有理，首尾呼应，给读者以强烈的感染力。 作者用词简洁精确，并能很好地尝试一些新学的词汇及表达，使简洁的行。文更为生动。作者没有运用太多复杂的句式，但能适当运用介词短语、分词结构、强调及重复的手法，恰到好处 地突出了行文句式的变化，使文章更耐读。

I like to eat different kinds of delicious food , however, my favorite

food is dumplings. In my spare time , I like to make dumplings with my mother .

I think home-made dumplings are more delicious than those in supermarket .My

mother knows I love to eat them ,so she makes dumplings at every weekend . I

prefer eating dumplings . How about you

?

我喜欢吃各种各样的美味的食物,但是,我最喜欢的食物是饺子。在我的业余时间,我喜欢和我妈妈包饺子。我认为自制的饺子比超市更美味。我妈妈知道我爱吃,所以她在每个周末做饺子。我喜欢吃饺子。你呢？

俗话说：“行行出状元”，有些人汲汲营营，他们的梦想是升官发财；有些人埋头研究，希望将来当科学家、发明家；也有些人想当作家、护士……等。梦想就像灯塔，指引人们努力的方向。“人类因为梦想而伟大”每个人从小心中都有梦想，我的梦想是要当一位可以透过书本和很多人做朋友的作家。

每当我看到书本里天马行空的搞笑内容时，总是笑得东倒西歪、七上八下；读到可怜的剧情时，心情也会跟着悲伤、落泪。我多愁善感的心情，被妙笔生花的作家牵着鼻子走，和书本的剧情融合一体了。就这样，让我也想成为一个感动人心的“文字魔术师”──作家。我要成为一个有想像力的作家，像哈利波特的作者──罗琳，创造出我自己的魔幻世界，来满足千千万万的读者观众；我希望能让很多人可以看到我的书，喜欢我的书，让读者一遍又一遍的阅读，一次又一次的感动。

要成为作家并不容易，但是妈妈告诉我一定要透过大量的阅读，去和作者“感同身受”；也不要忘了经常去感觉、观察生活周围的人、事、物，多观察、多体会、多思考；最后还要努力不辍的多写，想到的、看到的、听到的、感受到的、想像的，都是很好的写作题材，随手记起来，日积月累的做功夫，就可以增强写作的功力喔！

真的好羡慕有一些作家，写出令人内心深处产生共鸣的作品，盼望有一天我也能妙笔生花，让老师、同学们和我死忠的书迷都能读到我呕心沥血的创作。

Yesterday was my birthday， so some of my classmates sent me presents。 Mother prepared a tea party for me。 I invited all of them to e and take part in it。The tea party began at half past six。 There were cold drinks and refreshments。 We ate， talked and laughed。 We felt that we were the happest men in the world。翻译：昨日是我生日，所以有几位我的同班同学送我礼。母亲给我准备一个茶会。我邀请他们都前来参加。茶会下午六点半开始。有冷饮和点心。我们又吃又谈又笑。我们觉得是世界上最快乐的人。

Improve our environment

Good environment can make people feel happy. To improve the environment means to qualify our life . What should we do to improve our environment ?

Whenever we see litter on the ground , we should pick it up and throw it into a dustbin . Don’t spit in public places . Don’t draw on public walls . It’s our duty to keep our earth clean and tidy .

良好的环境能使人觉得愉快。改善环境，使我们的生活。我们应该做什么来改善我们的环境?

我们应该种更多的树。我们应该阻止那些工厂废水流入河流，湖泊和田野。每当我们看到地上的垃圾，我们应该把它捡起来扔到垃圾桶。不要在公共场所吐痰。不要在公共墙上画。这是我们的职责，保持地球的干净和整洁的。

Saving Water

The world is not only hungry,but also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly 75 % of the earths surface is covered with water. But about 97% of this huge amount is sea water, or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3% -- the fresh water that comes from rivers, lakes,underground, and other sources. And we cannot even use all of that, because some of it is in the form of icebergs and glaciers. Even worse, some of it has been polluted.

However, as things stand today, this small amount of fresh water, which is constantly being replaced by rainfall, is still enough for us. But our need for water is increasing rapidly-- almost day by day. Only if we take steps to deal with this problem now can we avoid a severe worldwide water shortage later on. A limited water supply would have a bad effect on agriculture and industry. Let me give you just one small exampie of how necessary water is to industry. Did you know that to produce a single ton of steel, it takes about 91, 000 liters of water?

We all have to learn how to stop wasting our precious water. One of the first steps we should take is to develop ways of reusing it. Experiments have already been done in this field, but only on a small scale. For us, the systems are as important as the spacecraft.

节约用水

我们的世界不仅饥饿，而且因为缺水而干渴。对你来说这可能似乎奇怪：因为我们的地球表面75%由水覆盖着。但是，这巨大的数量中97%是海水、或咸水。只有剩下3%

的来自河流、湖泊、地下，和其他来源的淡水供人们饮用、使用。即使如此，这3%的水源我们也不能够完全使用，因为有些淡水是以冰山或冰河的形式存在。更糟糕的是，一些水源已遭受了污染。

然而，尽管按现状看来，这些少量的淡水即使时常转化成雨水的形式，对我们来说，也仍然够用。可是我们对水的需求却日益迅速增长。我们只有现在采取措施解决这一问

题才能避免未来世界范围内的严重水资源缺乏。限量供水会对农业和工业产生不良的影响。我们举个小小的事例就能证明水对工业的必要性。每生产一吨钢材就要消耗91，000升水，你知道吗?

我们必须杜绝对宝贵水资源的浪费。我们应该采取的第一步就是要发展水再利用的方法。该领域的实验已在进行，但是仅是小规模地进行。水资源再利用系统的重要性

对我们而言，与空间站不相上下。
