province. More than 69000 people had lost their lives, 374643 people had injured

The custom of Dragon Boat Festival is always eaten with zongzi, the smell

Nowadays, house husband has become a hot phenomenon in modern society. As

we all know that no matter what country, it’s a tradition that men play a core

role in family who always take the burden to earn money to support their family.

But things are kind of different as society develops, more and more men are

beginning to take over housework while women go out from house. In my point of

view, I think this is not a big deal.

In the first place, house husband may be a shame title for men, but when it

comes to money, there is no room for reputation. As society develops, the life

standard are rising, and everything for living is much expensive than before, if

couples want to guarantee their life quality, then they should let the one who

earn better to work, although the one is female.

In the second place, it’s fine for women to support family as long as they

earn better than men. In the past, women always were treated very badly, and

they got no rights to be educated, to work. In some countries, they can’t even

show their face to others. A traditional female role is to stay at home, taking

care of children and do all of the housework. But now, lots of women have a good

job, so that they totally have the ability to be the economic backbone.

Therefore, in order to take good care of family, men are likely to stay at home

to do housework. I don’t think it’s a shame for men, because no matter what you

do, as long as you do it well, you are successful.

To sum up, people should change their opinion about core role of a family.

It’s acceptable for women to support the family, and there is no shame for men

to do the housework. As long as you remember life quality comes first.

as you commit yourself to it.

Though barriers may sometimes stand in the way of your dreams, remember

that your destiny is hiding behind them. Accept the fact that not everyone is

going to approve of the choices youve made, have faith in your judgment, catch

the star that twinkles in your heart, and it will lead you to your destinys

path. Follow that pathway and uncover the sweet sunrises that await you.

Take pride in your accomplishments, as they are stepping stones to your

dreams. Understand that you may make mistakes, but dont let them discourage you.

Value your capabilities and talents for they are what make you truly unique. The

greatest gifts in life are not purchased, but acquired through hard work and

determination.

This is Faith at Faith Radio Online-Simply to Relax. Find the star that

twinkles in your heart for you alone are capable of making your brightest dreams

come true. Give your hopes everything youve got and you will catch the star that

holds your destiny.

of men went to California to seek for gold in the hope that they could be rich

Many young people come to China to find their dreams.

Chinese economy developed very fast in the last decades, the market is full

of vitality and booming. More and more students choose to study abroad, but most

of them decide to return China to start their business, which is very different

with ten years ago. At that time, finding jobs in foreign countries was their

target. Whats more, China attracts foreigners to come and seek for cooperation,

because they know clearly that China can provide the chance they need.

In modern society, the problem of heavy traffic has aroused a wide concern.

Concerning with this problem, different people hold different opinions. As far

as I am concerned, to solve this problem, we need to begin with the following

steps.

First, limiting the number of private cars is a significant step to solve

the problem of heavy traffic. Private car occupies a larger space and it is

responsible for traffic jam to a large extent. Less private cars will accelerate

the flow of traffic. Second, it is also a good means to open up the special

roads for buses. By doing this, the phenomenon that the buses block the street

when passengers get on or get off the buses will not occur again. At the same

time, it will upgrade the efficiency of buses. Finally, reinforcing punish

toward the over-speed cars and drunk driving so as to reduce the rate of traffic

accident, and then decrease traffic jam.

To put it in a nutshell, only we put the above advice into practice

together can we solve the problem of heavy traffic.

In China, Mid-autumn Day is considered to be a symbol of family reunion. On

this day, all the family members gather together at home to celebrate this

special occasion. Last year, I could not celebrate the festival with my family

because I was in university. However, this special day left a deep impression on

me.

I still remember the atmosphere of that evening. All the students who could

not go back home assembled in our classroom, having a party to celebrate this

traditional festival. We tried our best to show our own enthusiasm. As an ethnic

minority, I performed a peacock dance, which received warm applause. After the

two-hour party, we went out to the playground and sat together to appreciate the

moon because it is a tradition on Mid-autumn Day. (www.fwsir.com)We ate moon

cakes, played cards, and listened to romantic poems recited by one of our

classmates. In that harmonious atmosphere, nobody felt lonely or homesick even

though we were far away from our homes

Thanks to our classmates, I experienced such a colorful and interesting

Mid-autumn Day at my university. Thus, I learned to value all the festivals I

spent during my university life.

Happy Mid-autumn Day

Today is Mid-autumn Day. I have a big meal at home with my parents and

relatives. This is an important festival， so my mother was busy with preparing

the dinner from morning. She bought a lot of foods for the dinner. We ate the

dinner at 5：30 p.m.. The dinner was very delicious. I was so full. After dinner，

we went to theHongTingParkto enjoy the glorious full moon. There were many

people in the park.We talked to each other and strangers. Of course， the moon

What kind of environment should be? Ought to be beautiful, but also should

be to let people feast for the eyes, but now all of you take a look at the

environment, beautiful? Let people feast for the eyes? The answer is no.

So what should we do? Today, Ill give you some advice to protect the

environment, the content is as follows:

We live earth is deteriorating rapidly, did we have to pay attention to

their own living environment cause harm to nature, you must not throw sundry,

especially those serious pollution of garbage, waste batteries, for example,

because the section waste batteries contain heavy metals, if flow to clean the

water, it is very much pollution, then try to save trees made items such as

paper, pencils, because waste these things is the destruction of the forest.

Also try to use less disposable lunch box, chopsticks and plastic bags and other

items, so as to avoid unnecessary waste and reduce waste.

There are some tips: walking to closing the master switch, in order to

avoid electrical appliances overheating explosion, a waste of money and waste of

electricity, save water, to shut the tap when brushing your teeth, wash dish

water to rice, rice water to water the flowers, wash water can sweep the floor,

so we can reduce some waste. 12 dont hunt wild animals, animal protection is

absolutely cant kill, but dont kill the common animals such as frogs, because

frogs eat 15000 bugs for us, and most are pests. Some people often dont think

that is, the stubborn still, so we should try to eat less wild animals, lead to

wild animals, the drop in sales no longer killing of wild animals.

Our forest is called oxygen plant, so to take good care of flowers and

plants, not to destroy the city greening, and actively participate in. But also

to cut down trees less, dont waste wood items, because waste these things is to

destroy the forest, so be used sparingly, to protect the forests of less and

less.

Use energy saving lamps to replace the ordinary light bulb, although some

expensive but can use less electricity. I appeal to you: in our daily actions to

protect earths environment, let our children and grandchildren live in a

beautiful environment!

My sister was fond of traveling. Ever since graduating, she had been

determined to organize a trip to an old temple. Since transporting fare was

expensive, she decided to use a bicycle to cycle there not caring about the

disadvantages. Her stubborn attitude was always her shortcoming. Once she made

up her mind to do something, no one could persuade her to change her mind.

Finally, we gave in as usual though we preferred to take a train. After we

prepared everything, including the schedule, reliable weather forecast and the

insurance, we began our trip.

Our journey was along a river flowing from a high altitude. Our pace was

slow because the river frequently had many sharp bends through deep valleys,

where the water seemed to boil. Just as I recorded in my journal, it was really

a hard journey. But we also enjoyed great views. One night, I put my head on my

pillow--a parcel of wool coats, and lay beneath the stars. When the flame in

front of our cave went out at midnight, I found the sky so beautiful!

Presently, in big cities like Shanghai and Guangzhou, bicycle-sharing

system has becomeincreasingly popular. A large number of shared bikes can be

found and rented at a low price.Moreover, you can park the bike almost anywhere

you like. Urban transportation has thus been made much more convenient and even

revolutionized.

However, along with its rapid development, bicycle-sharing system also

brings some problems, including random parking, vandalism and possession of

shared bikes, etc.

To solve these problems, there are some measures for the authorities to

take. Firstly, the government could implement more strict laws and rules to

regulate the operation and management of bicycle-sharing system. Secondly, the

public should raise their awareness of using shared bike reasonably. Lastly,

urban transportation system should be upgraded and improved to accommodate

automobiles, bikes and pedestrians.

To conclude, a sensible attitude should be held toward bicycle-sharing

program. With effectiveand efficient measures taken, and efforts made by those

involved, it can be expected that bicycle-sharing system will play a

contributive and constructive role in urban public transportation.

Nowadays, more and more people realize the harm of smoking and the damage

it bring to the people around us. Considered the health of people themseves and

the one they care, many smokers try their best to give up smoking. When quiting

smoking, I have some suggestions. First of all, people should have strong will

on giving up smoking. Personal determination is the most important factor. When

feeling eager to smoke, people should think about the damage of smoking and the

people they love. And then they can strengthen their will not to smoke.

Secondly, sweep away all the cigarette around. They can’t find any cigarette

when they want to smoke. And then after a while, their wants for smoke will

reduce gradually. Last but not least, prepare some candies in the pocket, when

people want to smoke, eat candies instead. Hope every smoker succeed in the

end.

Failure exists in every stage for everybody. As students, I think the most

common failure would be failing in the exam. Yes, I have failed in the exam for

many times. It is very common, because on one can keep the name of

ever-victorious generals forever. But some students do not figure out this. When

they fail in the exam, they need a long time to recover, even have directly

negative effect on their inner heart. This is not the right way to deal with

this problem. We need to figure out the reason why we don’t do well in the exam.

And then correct it. Try our best to get better next time.
