知识就是力量(knowledge is power)

The saying "Knowledge is power" becomes universally accepted in that it reveals a simple yet brutal fact: It is the brain rather than sword that makes an individual or a nation strong.

The truth the saying speaks has been proven in mans civilization, which is, to the greatest extent, accelerated by mans knowledge in the form of science and technology. A century ago, it took many-years to send a message to the other end of the world. Nevertheless, we can have it done in seconds today with just touches on computer keyboard.

"Knowledge is power" means something particular to us Chinese since China remains backward. We must sweat over knowledge so as to build China into one of the worlds economic giants.

Ambition is the decision one makes and the resolution with which he carries out that decision. It provides us with the required driving force to accomplish any undertakings in our life. Just as Joseph Epstein, a famous American writer put it, “And as we decide and choose, so are our lives formed.” Indeed, once we make up our minds to choose to do something, then our life becomes meaningful and specifically orientated. This notion of life, as far as I observe, is closest to truth and does apply to almost all aspects of life.

First things first, ambition renders us a sense of mission. No matter what decision you make you have to be responsible for your choice. Your choice procures you a sense of orientation, or more specially a sense of mission. And only a strong mission may enable one to accomplish greatness. Caesar of the ancient Roman Empire was urged by his ambition “I came, I saw, I conquered.” And became an unrivaled empire builder in the history of Rome. John Milton, stimulated always by his ambition that aimed at writing some “mighty lines” which England would unwillingly forget, had in due time secured his position as the second Shakespeare in the history of English literature.

In the second place, ambition can bring one’s potentials to the full. Ambition may well serve as a catalyst activating one’s dormant potentials. Without ambition one’s potentials will remain slumbering like a dormant volcano. A case in point is Ms Zhang Haidi, a Chinese Helen Keller. It was her ambition to be a useful person has turned the almost paralyzed Zhang Haidi into a well-accomplished figure whose achievements would dwarf those of some normal people aim at the sun, though, at worst, they may probably land on the moon.

Influential as it is upon us, however, ambition must be channeled in the right direction. If wrongly directed, one’s ambition may bring havoc on him and others. Hitler, whose ambition was to conquer Europe by whattever evil means, finally turned him into a demon. It was this demon that almost cast Europe into an unfathomable abyss of anguish and suffering. Another case is Macbeth whose ambition was to become the king of Scotland. However, his ambition was materialized by the murder of King Duncan. Consequently, unbearable guilt and psychological agony drove him to his tragic doom.

To sum up, ambition can benefit us tremendously if wisely and correctly channeled, otherwise it may ruin others and ourselves. A poet says: life can be bad; life can be good; life can be dirty; life can be sad,; life can even be painful. In my mind’s eye, a person can make his life beautiful, meaningful and rewarding and stand out as a respectable personage if he is motivated by a well-orientated ambition.

When it comes to honesty, quite a lot of people believe it is essential to a person’s character and success.

They base their idea on the following reasons: on one hand, successful business owes much to mutual trust; on another hand, great people in history such as Abraham Lincoln and Genete Washington set us good examples of being honest, they are great because they are honest.

But some people think differently. They believe honesty is becoming out of date.

Their reasons run as following: to begin with, cheating on exams is becoming more and more popular; in addition, some singers and movie stars cheat on taxes; last but not the least, if you are not careful enough, you’ll buy some defective goods and fake products.

It is high time we emphasized and encouraged honesty. We can take effective measures to restore it.

For example, kids should be taught to tell truth, strict rules and regulations should be carried out to stop cheatings on exams and taxes, etc.

导语：端午节是中国的传统节日，下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

Dragon Boat Festival， often known as Tuen Ng Festival or Duan Wu Festival， is a traditional Chinese festival held on the fifth day of the fifth month of the Chinese calendar. It is also known as the Double Fifth.[citation needed] It has since been celebrated， in various ways， in other parts of East Asia as well， most notably Korea.

The exact origins of Duan Wu are unclear， but one traditional view holds that the festival memorializes the Chinese poet Qu Yuan of the Warring States Period. He committed suicide by drowning himself in a river because he was disgusted by the corruption of the Chu government. The local people， knowing him to be a good man， decided to throw food into the river to feed the fishes to prevent them from eating Qus body. They also sat on dragon boats， and tried to scare the fishes away by the thundering sound of drums aboard the boat and the fierce looking dragon-head in the front of the boat.

In the early years of the Chinese Republic， Duan Wu was also celebrated as "Poets Day"， due to Qu Yuans status as Chinas first poet of personal renown.

Today， people eat zongzi (the food originally intended to feed the fishes) and race dragon boats in memory of Qus dramatic death.

端午节，通常被称为端午节或节节，是中国传统节日举行第五天的第五个月的中国日历。它也被称为双第五[引文所需]，它已经庆祝，以各种方式，在东亚其他地区，以及最显着的韩国。

端午确切的起源尚不清楚，但一个传统的观点认为，这个节日是由中国诗人屈原战国时期。他因沉溺于一条河而自杀，因为他对楚国政府的腐败感到厌恶。当地人知道他是个好人，决定把食物扔到河里喂鱼，以防他们吃屈原的尸体。他们还坐在龙舟上，试图用船上的鼓声和船前凶恶的龙头来吓走鱼儿。

民国初年，端午也被誉为“诗人节”，由于屈原的地位，作为中国的第一诗人的个人名声。

今天，人们吃粽子(原本打算喂鱼的食物)和赛龙舟以纪念屈原的戏剧性死亡。

Currently, there is a widespread concern about the previously neglected connection between growing human population and decreasing wild species. As the two graphs obviously portrayed, American population in 1980 was 250 times than that in 1800, a trend accompanied by the extinction of nearly 70 kinds of wildlife in the past 300 years. A clear correlation is suggested that mankind has exerted a tremendously negative influence on natural species.

There are many factors responsible for the aforementioned tendency. First and foremost, to satisfy the space demand for the booming population, the only available solution for Americans is to take occupation of forests and grassland. that used to be habitat of wild animals and plants. Furthermore, the process of industrialization and urbanization has generated severe pollution that essentially destroys environment and ecosystem.

In my point of view, the dearth of wildlife today forecasts an unpromising future for humans tomorrow. In order to eliminate species extinction, relevant laws and regulations must be established and enforced to maintain a large portion of unspoiled areas. Effective measures should also be applied to ensure that the impact of pollution be removed.

目前，人们普遍关注以前忽视的人口增长与减少野生物种之间的关系。正如这两幅图所描绘的，1980的美国人口是1800年的250倍，这是近300年来近70种野生动物灭绝的趋势。一个明显的相关性表明，人类对自然物种产生了巨大的负面影响。

有许多因素负责上述趋势。首先，为了满足人口增长的空间需求，美国人唯一可行的解决办法是占领森林和草原。那曾经是野生动植物的栖息地。此外，工业化和城市化进程产生了严重的污染，基本上破坏了环境和生态系统。

在我看来，今天的野生动物缺乏预测人类没有未来的明天。为了减少物种灭绝，应该制定相关的法律法规和执行保持大部分的原始生态区。还应采取有效措施，以消除污染的影响。

The Scandinavian countries are much admired all over the world for their enlightened social policies. Sweden has evolved an excellent system for protecting the individual citizen from high-handed or incompetent public officers. The system has worked so well, that it has been adopted in other countries too.

The Swedes were the first to recognize that public officials like civil servants, police officers, health inspectors or tax-collectors can make mistakes or act over-zealously in the belief that they are serving the public. As long ago as 1809, the Swedish Parliament introduced a scheme to safeguard the interest of the individual. A parliamentary committee representing all political parties appoints a person who is suitably qualified to investigate private grievances against the State. The official title of the person is Justiteombudsman, but the Swedes commonly refer to him as the J. O. or Ombudsman. The Ombudsman is not subject to political pressure. He investigates complaints large and small that come to him from all levels of society. As complaints must be made in writing, the Ombudsman receives an average of 1, 200 letters a year. He has eight lawyer assistants to help him and he examines every single letter in detail. There is nothing secretive about the Ombudsmans work, for his correspondence is open to public inspection. If a citizens complaint is justified, the Ombudsman will act on his behalf. The action he takes varies according to the nature of the complaint. He may gently reprimand an official or even suggest to parliament that a law be altered. The following case is a typical example of the Ombudsmans work.

A foreigner living in a Swedish village wrote to the Ombudsman complaining that he had been ill-treated by the police, simply because he was a foreigner. The Ombudsman immediately wrote to the Chief of Police in the district asking him to send a record of the case. There was nothing in tthe record to show that the foreigners complaint was justified and the Chief of Police strongly denied the accusation. It was impossible for the Ombudsman to take action, but when he received a similar complaint from another foreigner in the same village, he immediately sent one of his lawyers to investigate the matter. The lawyer ascertained that a policeman had indeed dealt roughly with foreigners on several occasions. The fact that the policeman was prejudiced against foreigners could not be recorded in the official files. It was only possible for the Ombudsman to find this out by sending one of his representatives to check the facts. The policeman in question was severely reprimanded and was informed that if any further complaints were lodged against him, he would be prosecuted. The Ombudsmans prompt action at once put an end to an unpleasant practice which might have gone unnoticed.

Many people, especially young college students, like pop songs. They hum small tunes all the way to their schools and seem to be never tired of this. Some of them are even mad about pop songs, rocknroll in particular. They shout and shout until their voices become hoarse.

Others will submerge themselves in the romance of the love songs, with tears streaming down their cheeks. Despite such popularity of the pop songs, however, some people dismiss such kind of songs as crude and worthless. They hold that these songs are easy to sing and they are usually characterized with simple tunes which lack variety and depth. Based upon this, they say that pop songs should not have gained such popularity. Whereas many others stick to pop songs. Their lives seem to ha dull without songs.

In my point of view, pop songs should not be banned. True, their tunes are simple and sometimes repetitious, but this is not to say that they are of no artistic value. Folk songs are also quite simple in tune but no one could dismiss them as trash songs. There is no denying that some pop songs are equally excellent. Why? Because they are widely sung and widely remembered. For example, "Yesterday" is of high artistic value. No one can deny its beautifulness in tune. Of com-se, there are bad songs that will not last long, but pop song fans will give these songs their due by choosing to sing them or not.

书籍是最宝贵的财富Books are the Most Precious Fortune

When my tenth birthday was coming up, I was happy imaging what kind of present my father would give me. To my surprise, Father gave me a set of books, which I was not very glad to accept. He saw what I was thinking and said kindly: "Dear, remember, books are the most precious fortune in the world, I am sure that once you finish reading the first book, you will be anxious to read the second one, then the third, the forth…" According to my fathers words, I have to give reading a try. And things really happened as he expected. Books indeed exerted a strong influence on me. From then on, I stepped into a new and wonderful world that books spread open for me.

我的十岁生日即将到来，我很高兴的想象我爸爸会给我什么样的礼物。令我惊奇的是，父亲给我一套的书，我并不是很开心。他看出我在想什么就和蔼地说：“亲爱的，记住书是世界上最宝贵的财富，我相信一旦你读完第一本书，你就会急于读第二本，第三本，第四本……”听了我爸爸的话，我不得不试着阅读一下。事情真的想他所说的那样。书的确对我产生了深刻的影响。从那以后，书给我展开了一个新的、美好的世界。

Whether a man reads history books or mathematical books, reads them in detail or just skims them, if he cares about reading at all, he will appreciating the pleasure of books. Experience tells me that what composes the joys of reading lies in the process of finding a good book, enjoying it, and learning from it.

无论一个人是读历史书还是数学书，细细的读还是快速的浏览。如果他真的关心阅读，他会欣赏书的乐趣。经验告诉我阅读的欢乐在于寻找的过程，享受它并从中学习。

In the first place, you will be feeling excited when you find a good book which is suitable for yourself. Reading is something of a paradox. One thinks that books are always meaningful. Yet the fact is that many of them are useless in some sense. Particularly, pornographic books describe violence, superstition. People who are taken up by such books might be misled and dispirited. Therefore, choosing an appropriate book not only improves your ability to discriminate and leads you to read effectively, but also gives you the fulfillment of knowing a good book.

首先，当你找到一本适合你自己的书时你会很兴奋。阅读是一种驳论。书是很有意义的。但事实上，在某种意义上他们中的许多是无用的。特别是色情暴力、迷信的书。这样的书可能会使人们被误导和意志消沉。因此,选择一本合适的书不仅能提高你的区别能力、引导你有效率的阅读，而且还让你知道一本好书。

Secondly, reading would offer inexhaustible mental nutrition. Good books teach us and help us to do well. They are our real companions. They are both instructive and inspiring. Through reading, the beauties of nature, the miracles of art, the spectacles of architecture, and the marvels of engineering are all opened to our wonder and appreciation. Moreover, it really builds up a full comprehension of love, hatred, happiness and sorrows in our heart. We are able to experience various kinds of lives---what more is there to desire than that?

其次,阅读将提供取之不尽的精神营养。好的书籍教我们、帮助我们做的更好。他们是我们的真正的伴侣。他们都是有益的和鼓舞人心的。通过阅读到大自然的美、艺术的奇迹、建筑的宏伟、和惊人的工程都让我们感到惊奇和感激。此外，它真的我们的心建立起一个完全理解的爱、恨、开心和痛苦。我们可以体验各种各样的生活————更有什么更渴望的事吗?

Thirdly, it is fruitful for us to learn from the book after reading it. Books are our friends; they take us to all the countries in the world; they tell us stories of all ages; they teach us the truth. With reading, we can learn innumerable things we do not know, be aware of what has happened in the past as well as what is going to happen in the future, and solve the urgent problems that beset us. Gradually, we come to know how to be a real person and how to observe the world.

第三，读完一本书后来学习书中的知识是富有成效的。书是我们的朋友，他们带我们去世界上所有的国家，他们告诉我们所有年龄段的故事，他们教给我们真理。读书，我们可以学到无数我们不知道的事情，知道发在过去的事情以及未来将要发生的事情以及这个困扰着我们急需解决的问题。渐渐地，我们开始了解到如何成为一个真正的人，如何观察世界。

In all, mankind has made extraordinary progress in the accumulation of knowledge. With the invention of writing, knowledge could then not only be communicated but also be stored. Now, I am lucky for being one member of 4EW, and I am confident that I will make good use of it, learn from it, and feel the joys of reading forever.

总之,人类在积累知识中取得了非凡的进步。写作的发明让知识不仅可以沟通而且也可以存储。现在，我很幸运成为4EW的会员，我有信心我会好好的利用我的4EW.向它学习它，永远感受阅读的乐趣。

Talk of a new Silk Road may be intended to evoke romantic, non-threatening images of desert caravans, ancient ships and trade in exotic commodities. But China’s grand plan for a network of railways, highways, pipelines and ports across central Asia, and around Southeast Asia is generating anxiety in New Delhi.

With the 3,488km border between the two Asian neighbours still a matter of formal dispute, Indian strategic policy analysts are divided on whether China’s new Silk Road project is a strategic and economic threat to their country — or an opportunity. Many see the project — which the Chinese have called One Belt, One Road (OBOR) — as something that must be carefully navigated, as Beijing develops large projects in countries that India considers part of its natural sphere of influence. However, New Delhi lacks the financial power to offer a credible alternative.

“The Indian government is very careful about the way it handles the China rhetoric, and it isn’t ready to come out arms swinging against OBOR, but it is sitting with its arms folded making it very clear that it will not endorse the project if it doesn’t like the way it was put together as a Chinese fait accompli,” says Shashank Joshi, a senior research fellow at the Royal United Services Institute, a British defence and security think-tank.

“They cannot be seen to be outwardly hostile to a scheme which many smaller Asian neighbours view as a good opportunity for large flows of Chinese capital that India cannot deliver,” he says.

Brahma Chellaney, professor of strategic studies at New Delhi’s Centre for Policy Research, sees China’s new Silk Road initiative as a repackaging — in more palatable terms — of China’s so-called “string of pearls” strategy, which India views as an attempt to strategically encircle it.

The “string of pearls” theory argues that Chinese investment in ports in south Asia is a precursor to developing overseas naval bases. China has, for example, already built a major port at Hambantota in Sri Lanka, which overlooks important shipping lanes that carry much of the world’s oil trade, and which India views as strategically important for its own defence.

The visit of Chinese submarines at the Colombo port in 2014 raised fears that the facility’s purpose is not economic but military. Chinese investment is also planned for ports in Bangladesh and Myanmar, raising concerns that they may serve a dual purpose.

“The new Silk Road is just a nice new name for the strategy they’ve been pursuing,” says Mr Chellaney. “They’ve wrapped that strategy in more benign terms. The Chinese dream is pre-eminence in Asia, and this goes to the heart of that dream.”

“It’s not just a trade initiative,” he says. “What China is doing has a strategic element that is increasingly obvious.”

India is most exercised about plans for a $$46bn economic corridor linking China and Pakistan, India’s nuclear-armed neighbour and rival. That blueprint envisions goods travelling from China’s western region to Pakistan’s Gwadar, a once sleepy Arabian Sea port now run by the China Overseas Port Holding Company. It is considered a staging point between central Asia and the Gulf.

Part of the corridor will pass through Pakistan-held Kashmir, a territory that is still the subject of a decades-old, unresolved dispute between India and Pakistan. Indian analysts say that acceptance of the corridor would effectively acknowledge Pakistan’s rights over the territory now under its control, while India’s own claims over Kashmir have yet to be resolved — something New Delhi considers unacceptable. “This is a large scale project bringing People’s Liberation Army personnel [said to be guarding some project locations] right into the heart of what India considers to be occupied territory,” Mr Joshi says.

At a recent conference in Gwadar, Pakistan’s Army Chief, General Raheel Sharif, accused India of deliberately attempting to undermine the project. “India, our neighbour, has openly challenged this development initiative,” he said. “We will not allow anyone to create impediments or turbulence in any parts of Pakistan.”

But wary as India may be of Chinese ambitions, analysts say New Delhi needs to take a measured approach to the new Silk Road, and embrace individual components.

India is already a member of the Chinese-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, which will finance much of the infrastructure, potentially giving it some leverage over how the plan unfolds.

“For every belt they create, and every road that we create, can we create a slip road that connects Indian opportunities to the larger global market rather than reject it outright?” asks Samir Saran, of the Observer Research Foundation. “Can we?…?use their institutions to our own advantage?”

“新丝绸之路”的说法或许是有意唤起人们对沙漠商队、古代商船以及舶来品贸易的不具威胁的浪漫联想。但是，中国对横穿中亚和环绕东南亚的铁路网、公路网、输油管线路以及港口的宏伟计划，正在引起新德里方面的焦虑。

在这两个亚洲邻居之间3488千米的边界仍然处于正式纠纷状态的情况下，对于中国“新丝绸之路”项目是否对印度构成战略和经济威胁，抑或带来机遇，印度的战略政策分析人士意见分歧。很多人认为，必须谨慎应对中方所称的“一带一路”(One Belt, One Road)项目，因为中国将要在印度认为属于其天然影响范围的一些国家开发大型项目。然而，新德里方面缺乏提供可信替代选择的财力。

“印度政府对待中国的措辞非常谨慎，它没有准备好跳出来明确反对‘一带一路’，但是它双臂交叉坐着等待，表明如果它不喜欢这个项目被当作中方既成事实的方式，它就不会支持该项目，”英国国防和安全智库——皇家联合军种研究院(Royal United Services Institute)高级研究员沙善?乔希(Shashank Joshi)表示。

“他们不能从表面上被看出来对一带一路怀有敌意，因为该计划被很多亚洲较小邻国视为引入大量中国资本的良机，而这类资本是印度无力输送的，”他表示。

新德里政策研究中心(Centre for Policy Research)战略研究教授布拉马?切拉尼(Brahma Chellaney)把中国的“新丝绸之路”计划视为——以更容易让人接受的方式——对中国“珍珠链”战略的重新包装;印度把这一战略视为中国企图对其实施战略包围。

按照“珍珠链”理论，中国在南亚投资建设港口是开发海外海军基地的先兆。例如，中国已经在斯里兰卡的汉班托特(Hambantota)建设了一个大型港口;斯里兰卡濒临全球很大一部分原油贸易必经的重要航道，同时印度认为斯里兰卡对其自己的国防具有战略重要性。

2014年中国海军潜艇访问斯里兰卡科伦坡港，此举引发了人们对于该港的用途并非经贸而是军用的担忧。中国在孟加拉国和缅甸投资的港口也在规划中，引发了人们对于这些港口可能军民两用的担忧。

“‘新丝绸之路’只是给他们在一直追求的战略换了一个好听的新名字，”切拉尼称，“他们给该战略换了一身更加和善的包装。中国的梦想是称雄亚洲，而该计划处于中国梦的核心。”

“它不只是一个贸易倡议，”他称，“中国在做的事情带有战略元素，这一点日益明显。”

印度最担心的是连接中国和巴基斯坦的460亿美元经济走廊计划;巴基斯坦是印度的邻国以及对手，拥有核武器。按照该计划的蓝图，商品将从中国西部运往巴基斯坦的瓜达尔港(Gwadar)。瓜达尔曾经是坐落于阿拉伯海之滨的一个沉寂的港口，如今由中国海外港口控股有限公司(China Overseas Port Holding Company)经营。它被认为是中亚和海湾地区之间的中转点。

中巴经济走廊的一部分将穿过克什米尔地区巴基斯坦控制的部分，该地区是印度和巴基斯坦之间好几十年未能解决的领土纠纷的对象。印度分析人士表示，接受这条经济走廊相当于承认巴基斯坦对目前在其控制下的那部分克什米尔领土的主权，而印度本身对克什米尔的主权主张尚未解决——这在新德里方面看来是无法接受的。“这是一项大规模的工程，会把解放军人员(据称是为了守卫一些项目地点)直接带到被印度视为被占领土的心脏地带，”皇家联合军种研究院的乔希表示。

最近在瓜达尔召开的一次会议上，巴基斯坦陆军参谋长拉希勒?谢里夫上将(Raheel Sharif)指责印度企图破坏该项目。“我们的邻国印度公开叫板这个开发项目，”他称，“我们不会允许任何人在巴基斯坦任何地方制造障碍或引起动荡。”

但是，尽管印度可能对中国的野心抱有戒心，但是分析师称，新德里需要有分寸地对待新丝绸之路，欢迎某些个别项目。

印度已经是中国主导创立的亚洲基础设施投资银行(AIIB，简称亚投行)的成员国之一，而该行将为很多基础设施项目提供资金，这可能会使印度在该计划如何展开的问题上具有一些影响力。

“对于他们创建的每一带和每一路，我们能不能打造一条匝道，让印度的机遇与更大的全球市场互联互通，而不是把这个计划一概拒之门外?”新德里观察者研究基金会(Observer Research Foundation)的萨米尔?萨兰(Samir Saran)称，“我们能把他们的机构为我所用吗?”

There are many arguments about the advantages and disadvantages of examinations. Some people think that examinations can help them review the lessons regularly, while others maintain that too many examinations have frustrated them.

To me, I think an examination is a good thing for both teachers and students. Teachers can find out how much the students have grasped and then improve their teaching; students, on the other hand, will learn what their weak points are and then study even harder.

All in all, we should not waste time arguing whether examinations are good or not. What we should do is to try to improve the exam system and try to adjust it to our different requirements.

Should We Help Strangers?

Recently our class had a discussion about whether we should help

strangers.Different students have different opinions.

Some think we should try to help strangers. Helping others is a virtue，and

helping others is helping ourselves.We may come across some trouble and need

others help some day.If everyone isnt willing to help us just because we are

strangers to them，its hard to imagine what our world will be like.

However，some are afraid that helping others can sometimes bring us

trouble.Sometimes we are just misunderstood and even have to pay the cost of

kindness.

In my opinion，we should try our best to help others when they are in need

of help，but we should also protect ourselves from getting into trouble.If

everyone tries a little kindness，our world will be full of love.

changes have taken place in Beijing since we successfully held the 2008 0lympic

Games.

Now, people pay more attention to the environment. More trees and flowers

have been planted. For the traffic, it is very convenient for people to travel

around Beijing, because several new subway lines have been built. If you come to

Beijing, you will find people here are very friendly and helpful. Whats more, a

lot of people can speak English. Beijing is really an attractive city with a

long history.

Im looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours,

To be successful, students learn many knowledge so as to master as more skills as possible. Some believe that the key to realize our dreams is to work hard and others treat chance in the first place. While today is the information world, the one who masters the all-sided source will have more chances to be successful. In my opinion, the most important skill is the social skill, because we need to make connection with others, we are not doing business with ourselves, so it is in need of having relationship with others. The good social skill can help us attract attention easily and impress the future partner. If we are bad in communicating, how can we let others know our advantages and trust us. So promoting ourselves is the first job, from now on, don’t be shy.

I like many kinds of sports, such as swimming,Running, table-tennis and badminton. But I like running most. Running is a good activity for people to keep healthy and relieve pressures. Besides, it’s very easy for me to running. I can run in the morning or after class. And I can run alone. I don’t have to find a partner to run with me. After running, I always feel good and relaxed. It has become a part of my life.

我喜欢很多种运动，比如游泳，跑步，乒乓球和羽毛球。但是我最喜欢的是跑步。跑步是人们保持身体健康和释放压力的运动。此外，我觉得跑步很容易。我可以在早上或课后进行跑步。我也可以一个人跑，不需要找伴一起跑。跑步过后，我总是感觉很好很放松。跑步已经成为我生活中的一部分。

The summer holidayis end and the new term begins. In the new term, I am a student of grade six. Itsthe last year in primary school. In order to have a good ending, I must workharder. So my scores can be better. Besides, I want to spend more time with myclassmates and friends. We have been very good these years. Maybe we cant beclassmates in the future. But, I am still happy that its the last year inprimary school and I am going to junior school.

暑假结束了，新的学期一开始了。新学期我就是一名六年级的学生了。这是小学的最后一年。为了有一个好的结果，我必须更加努力，这样我的分数才会更高。除此之外，我想花更多的时间和同学朋友一起。这些年我们一直很好。也许将来我们不能够成为同班同学，但是我仍然很高兴这是小学的最后一年了，我就要上初中了。

Now the winter holiday will pass soon, I suddenly remember that I haven’t finished my homework yet and answered my friend’s invitation. So in the last few days, the first thing I need to do is to spend some time with my friends, because she had asked me to barbecue with her families. I am so happy to say yes and look forward to spending the time with her families. Homework is always my nightmare. I am lazy and won’t face it until the last minute. My parents always remind me of my homework and I respond them with the good words. My mother will check my homework before I go back to school. So I must finish it in two days. It is a tough task but I have to burden it. I won’t break my words to my parents.

Varieties of electronic gadgets, without which some of us cant live, come into being. Despite their conveniences, they bring people much stress, so people have to balance their advantages and disadvantages before buying them.

I cant agree more with the author. With the development of science and technology, more and more fantastic electronic gadgets come into being, which dazzles people. People cant resist the temptation to buy and update them since these gadgets become outdated too quickly.

I have a lot of favourite electronic gadgets， one of which is a video MP3. As well as carrying my favourite music， a video MP3 player can play up to 150 hours of movies and TV programmes. However, it cost me 2，000 yuan. Besides, the loud volume will damage my hearing if I overuse it.

If I want to buy a necessary electronical gadget, the first factor that should be taken into consideration is whether its practical.
