可能很多国人会为我的18个世界冠军感到骄傲，也会觉得我特别了不起，其实我自己最看重的是我的第一个世界冠军——2004年的汤姆斯杯。在印尼的雅加达，当时的队员里有我和鲍春来等一批1983年出生的年轻运动员。当时我非常激动，也非常骄傲，我觉得至少我从5岁开始练羽毛球没有白练。但从那以后，我觉得压力越来越大，因为有很多人对我的要求越来越高。

2004年的雅典奥运会，我相信大家都知道我很遗憾地第一轮就出局了。在雅典的21天，是我人生中最痛苦的21天，因为第一天比赛结束后，我还要拿着摄像机去给队友们摄像。其实当时我很想回国，也提出了这样的要求，但是领队不同意。输球的第一天晚上我印象非常深，我几乎是回了一个晚上的短信，告诉所有的朋友：“你们放心，我会很好很好。”其实我一点儿都不好。让我最难受的是，我不知道要怎样面对关心我的人，甚至我的父母。坐飞机回国时我又特别害怕，很希望自己能够在一瞬间就回到房间，让所有人都看不到我。

也就是从那个时候开始，我把目标放到2008年的奥运会上。2007年的上半年，我觉得自己好像变成了另外一个人，很难听进去别人给我的意见。因为那个时候，我要保持足够的自信，不想听到太多的人说我这个不好那个不好;同时又害怕自己在2008年那一刻来临时，完成不了很多人对我的期望。印象最深的是，在日复一日的训练中，我摔坏了无数球拍，因为觉得压力太大了。2008年即将来临时，我觉得自己从来没有那么紧张过，睡不好，吃饭时也会一直想着我的球或者对手。

从住进奥运村开始，我就有点封闭自己，不接受任何媒体的采访。可能在当时很多人都会觉得林丹是一个非常难搞定的人，而且非常有脾气，非常有个性。其实，我只能用这种方法让自己专心比赛。

2008年的奥运会，真的改变了我的一生。但有一点点让我感到伤心的地方，那就是所有人都把目光放在了决赛上——我跟李宗伟的那场比赛。几乎所有人都只看到了我的最后一个扣杀，李宗伟没有接起来，我振臂欢呼拿了冠军。但没有人知道，在过去的半年乃至一年的时间里，我摔坏了多少球拍，发了多少次火，甚至跟教练吵架，都是为了2008年赛场上的最后那一个球。

经过这样的磨炼，拿到冠军以后，到了2012年奥运会，我反而觉得我可以允许自己失败，但只有一点——你李宗伟想拿走这枚金牌没那么容易。

2012年蝉联奥运会冠军后，我休息了6个多月。广州世锦赛时，一个记者说：“现在所有的人都觉得你不是最好的了。”我听到这话时，有一些难受甚至愤怒。我只想跟他讲：每个人都有可能被击败，但并不是所有的人都会被超越。即便离开赛场6个多月，我依然有能力回去给任何对手制造很大的麻烦。其实很少人知道，离开后我每天都在训练。参加活动、拍广告甚至去度假，我都带着自己的体能教练。

从2000年6月份进入国家队到现在，我的职业生涯已有14年了，经历了3届奥运会、4届亚运会和无数大大小小的比赛。我很感谢这样的职业，因为它教会了我很多。

你们除了看到我以外，也可以看到我的对手李宗伟。我不觉得他是失败的，他通过努力让很多人也认可了他，我觉得这就足够了。金牌只是一个标准，并不能够代表所有。有时我也会向李宗伟学习，我会想他输给了我这么多次重要比赛，为什么还能够放下一切，继续跟我再拼一次重要比赛。我为什么做不到?难道我一定要背着所有的金牌跟他比赛吗?

无论是成功还是失败，其实已不那么重要了。我觉得最重要的是你对目标的一种态度。

If you blow out five or six candles, you can get two tickets to the lottery.

When I came to the arena with gusto, more than 20 people were waiting in line, so I had to wait patiently at the back of the line. The procession moved slowly forward like water, hoping that it would be my turn to blink. At this time, some of the students blew out six candles in one breath, their faces with a complacent look.

I thought: air what, wait to see mine! Some students only blow out three or four candles in one breath; And classmates with great strength, small mouth bulging round, but doesnt even have a candle blow out, disappointed, they are unwilling, wanted to blow again, had to run to the back of the team continue to wait in line. Looking at their performance, my heart was both happy and nervous, and I was worried that I could not blow out one of them, and if that was the case, it would be too boring.

In a few minutes, and it was my turn to play, I hurried to put the candle stage, took a deep breath, and then quickly forward movement and the tone with the biggest power blowing the candles. "Wow," a marvel from my teachers and classmates, I looked back, "one, two, three, four, five" didnt expect me to blew out the candle and five I jumped with joy. The referees award gave me two tickets to the lottery. At this point, the students behind me were casting envious glances at me.

Later, I played a lot of projects and felt good. When the garden was over, I was sweating and my clothes were wet, but I was not tired at all. I wish I had "61" every day, and I would be so happy every day.

培根说：“读书足以怡静、足以博采、足以长才。”说明阅读是增加知识的不二法门。

由古至今，世界上有很名人都曾介绍阅读的好处，也有学者曾说过读一本好书，犹如同高尚的人谈话。

阅读，可以令你增广见闻，每天阅读一篇文章已令你的学问增加不少。阅读不但令你增广见闻，还可以增加课外知识。课本里的知识是不足够的，要靠自已去阅读课外书才行，因此读书足以博采。

阅读更可以帮助你解闷，当你十分纳闷时，你可以读读书、看看文章，就可以助你陶养性情……

除此之外，你还可以选择不同的书籍来阅读，例如：惊险刺激的侦探小说、刻骨铭心的爱情小说、有关历史的历史书……阅读科幻小说，可以幻想自已是主角，再回想书内的情景，已经回味不已。阅读一些有关旅游的书籍，犹如到世界各地游览……

阅读不但可以怡到静、博采、，而且是增加知识的不二法门，所以大家应该每天抽点时间阅读。

With the development scientific technology and the improvement of people’s life standard, a growing number of e-books have been available for the readers. Therefore, some people hold the idea that e-books will replace traditional books in the future, because the former is more advantageous than the latter, such as more convenient and less expensive.

随着科技的发展和人们生活水平的提高，读者可以看到越来越多的电子书。因此，有些人认为电子书在未来会取代传统书籍，因为前者比后者更有优势，如更方便和更便宜。

However, as far as I am concerned, e-books will not and cannot replace traditional books. First, compared with traditional books, we cannot get the same pleasure from reading e-books in that e-books are easier to make our eyes to be tired and dry when reading. Second, with concern about copyright, there are many books are not available in digital form, especially classics. In other words, the resource of e-books is quite limited and cannot satisfy the readers. Third, there is a function of traditional books that e-books do not have—as a gift and a collection. I suppose that those who love reading would be willing to keep a printed form even though he has read the electronic form of it.

然而，我认为电子书不会、也不能取代传统书籍。首先，与传统书籍相比，从电子书中我们不能获得同样的乐趣，因为电子书阅读的时候更容易使我们的眼睛累，干燥。第二，因为版权问题，有许多书是没有电子形式，尤其是一些经典著作。换句话说，电子书的资源是非常有限，无法满足读者。第三，传统书籍有一个电子书没有的功能——作为礼物或拿来收集。我想那些爱阅读的人会愿意保存着纸质版的书，尽管他已经阅读过电子版的了。

In a word, traditional books will continue to be the most important form in our reading.

总之，在阅读方面，传统书籍会一直成为最重要的形式。

按照二十四节气，谷雨是春季的最后一个节气，处在暮春时节的谷雨，意味着春将尽，夏将至，冷空气大举南侵的情况比较少了，但影响北方的冷空气活动并不消停。4月底到5月初，气温毕竟要比3月份高得多，土壤干燥、疏松;空气层不稳定，上层风动量下传，锋面气旋活跃，共同引发的大风、沙尘天气比较常见。

五一劳动节，始于美国工人在19世纪90年代为争取8小时工作日而进行的斗争。自那以后，世界人民便开始庆祝这一天 - 国际劳动节。这个日子在全球所扮演的角色体现了它的力量：正是在这一天，全世界所有的工人们宣布为了共同的目标而一起奋斗。

It plays role in the world embodies its strength: it is in this day, the whole world all workers announced strive together for a common goal.

在许多个五一劳动节里，工人们都受到镇压，他们的活动被禁止，流血事件还时常发生。五一节逐渐失去它原来的意义，成为了独裁者和集权统治的政权对抗工人运动的一种标志性装饰;又或者就是一个平平安安的法定假日。尽管事实如此，工人们仍然满怀信心地庆祝劳动节，因为大家都知道这个社会是靠着我们的力量、眼睛、双手和智慧而不断地发展和强壮，还需要我们不断地支持。

In many Labor Day, workers are suppressed, their activities were banned, the bloodshed has often happened. Five one Jie gradually lost its original meaning, become a kind of decoration workers movement against dictator and symbol of power centralization rule; or is a peaceful holiday. Despite the fact that, workers are still full of confidence to celebrate the labor day, because we all know that this society is relying on our strength, eyes, hands and wisdom and constantly development and strong, we also need to continue to support.

正是在这一天，我们坚持体面的工作、工人健康、饮食和住房、教育和文化表达，都是我们应得的权利，而不是特权。我们志在获得这些权利。然而在这一天，我们从未胆怯卑微地去找法官和狱卒，从未守在财长们进行会议的地方，从未说服他们工会是有益于做生意，也从未要求进行更多的对话。正是在这一天，我们大声地说出：你们的银行，你们的买断、买回，给我们带来了痛苦和大量的失业工人;你们的贸易协定和专利制让工人们无法谋生，更破坏了所有人类获得食物、水和药物的权利。正是在这一天，我们大声地说出：我们不仅要建设一个更加美好的世界，而且，我们也坚决不会让世界越变越差。

It is in this day, we adhere to the expression of decent work, health, diet and housing, education and culture, we are right, not a privilege. Were aiming to acquire these rights. However, on this day, we never fear to the judge and the humble, never keep in the finance ministers meeting place, never persuade their union is beneficial to do business, never asked for more dialogue. It is in this day, we say: your bank, you buy, buy back, causing pain and a large number of unemployed workers to our trade agreements and patent system; you let the workers were unable to make a living, even destroy all humans for food, water and medicine to the right. It is in this day, we say out loud: we not only need to build a better world, moreover, we also determined not to let the world become worse.

五一劳动节是大家庆祝过去、庆祝现在和庆祝未来的日子。我们庆祝的方式就是争取应有权利和向全世界表达我们争取权利的决心。让我们一起大声又自豪地庆祝五一国际劳动节吧。

Labor Day we celebrate the past, now and future day celebration to celebrate. We celebrate the way is to fight for their rights and express our determination to fight for the rights of the whole world. Let us loud and proud to celebrate International WorkersDay.

My mother is a teacher, so she pays special attention to my education. Before I went to primary school, she bought me a lot of novel books. I remembered that when the hot movie Harry Porter came out, she bought me the novel the other day. I was so surprised and read these books quickly. Thanks to my mother, she cultivated my interest to read successfully. I keep reading books every day, even though I was busy with my homework, I would take out the books to read some chapters before I went to sleep. Reading these books helps me a lot. I am good at writing and it broadens my vision. I can give my own opinion and other students admire me. Now I start to read the classic novel. Reading makes me happy and find my world.

我妈妈是一名教师，所以她特别重视对我的教育。在我上小学之前，她给我买了很多小说。我记得，当热门电影《哈里波特》出来的时候，第二天她就给我买了这本小说。我很惊讶，同时也很快看完了。感谢我的妈妈，她成功地培养了我对阅读的兴趣。我坚持每天读书的习惯，即使作业任务很繁重，我都会在睡觉之前拿书出来看一会。看这些书给我的帮助很大。我擅长写作，而且视野也拓宽了。我可以给出自己的见解，其他同学也佩服我。现在我开始看古典小说，阅读使我快乐，我找到了属于自己的世界。

纪念历史是为了警醒未来

2014年9月3日，这本来是一个平凡的日子，但是因为69年前的今天，那场持续八年之久的抗日战争暨世界反法西斯战争取得了胜利，而让这一天变得不再平凡。上午，习近平、李克强、张德江、俞正声、刘云山、王岐山、张高丽等来到中国人民抗日战争纪念馆，与首都各界代表一起，向抗战烈士敬献花篮。

不管是抗日战争历史的研究者、学者和专家，还是普通的网友公众，都用“超规格”“极罕见”等字眼来形容中央七常委在纪念日上的集体亮相。其实，不管是对于这场带给中华民族无限痛苦与灾难的战争，还是那些为了抗击日本侵略，保卫民族尊严而英勇牺牲的烈士，我们都没有忘记，我们都永远铭记，只不过在今天，我们在以更高的规格和姿态来更好地铭记与怀念。

今年的抗日战争胜利纪念日虽然“超规格”“极罕见”，但并不突然。今年2月17日，第十二届全国人民代表大会常务委员会第七次会议经表决通过了两项决定，分别将9月3日确定为中国人民抗日战争胜利纪念日，将12月13日确定为南京大屠杀死难者国家公祭日。最近，为隆重纪念中国人民抗日战争暨世界反法西斯战争胜利69周年，经党中央、国务院批准，国务院发出通知，公布第一批80处国家级抗战纪念设施、遗址名录;民政部发出公告，公布第一批300名著名抗日英烈和英雄群体名录。凡此种种，都已经预示着今年与往年的不同，都让今年的抗日战争胜利纪念日的“超规格”水到渠成。

让腹有诗书成为一种民族气质

2014年的春晚，一曲《卷珠帘》大红。歌词虽然简单，却颇有清婉明丽的古风气质，在歌手的浅吟低唱里，古汉语之美让我们竞相折腰。仔细思量，上一次完整的读一首古诗词，是什么时候?或许，对于大多数人来说，记忆的搜索引擎甚至会定格到高三——那个被戏称为“上知天文下知地理”的知识高峰时期。

“离离原上草”、“春眠不觉晓”等几乎是每一个中国人启蒙的诗句，上至耄耋老人，下至垂髫孩童，稚拙的字迹、朗朗的吟诵声连同书墨飘香构成了共同的民族记忆，对于古诗词，那种文化上的亲近感已经被刻在骨子里。

所以开学伊始，部分地方学校把古代经典诗词和散文从课本中去掉的新闻引起了公众讨论。习近平总书记更是直言，“‘去中国化’是很悲哀的”。因为被去掉的不仅仅是几首古诗，还有共同的民族记忆。

与时代共振，与祖国同行

国务院9月30日晚在人民大会堂举行国庆招待会，热烈庆祝中华人民共和国成立65周年，习近平总书记发表重要讲话。65年，在漫长的历史长河中只是沧海一粟般的存在，于中国人来说却意味着波澜壮阔、日新月异。从站起来到富起来，再到强起来，一个个平凡却富有张力的日子塑造了中国人的跌宕命运，以及从容而自信的精神状态。时间可以改变一切，在时间的洪流中我们改变了自己，成就了自己，并与这个伟大的时代共振，与伟大的祖国同行。

从没有粮票寸步难行，到迁徙成为自由，公民权利变得更有质地;从自行车是主要出行工具，到轿车飞入寻常百姓家，生活半径更大、视野也更开阔……每个国民的生活都在改善。有人说，“这就是我一直想要的生活，只闻花香，不谈悲喜;喝茶读书，不争朝夕，阳光暖一点再暖一点，日子慢一点再慢一点。”这也许是普通人的最朴素念想。一个开放的时代，国民才能敢想，活出自己;一个不被外力侵扰的国家，国民才可以选择自己想要的生活，是疾是徐，纯由自己。

文艺工作座谈会

2014年10月15日，习近平主席在北京主持召开文艺工作座谈会并发表重要讲话。习近平在文艺工作座谈会的讲话炒语连珠振聋发聩，“人民是文艺创作的源头活水，一旦离开人民，文艺就会变成无根的浮萍、无病的呻吟、无魂的躯壳。”“文艺不能当市场的奴隶，不要沾满了铜臭气。优秀的文艺作品，最好是既能在思想上、艺术上取得成功，又能在市场上受到欢迎” ……网民普遍反映“说得好”、“接地气提士气”、“情真意切感人肺腑”，还有的说“总书记说到咱的心坎上”。

“低俗不是通俗，欲望不代表希望，单纯感官娱乐不等于精神快乐”，一针见血切中要害。现在的娱乐节目和电影，单纯追求商业化而不注重艺术性，电影一定要票房过亿才叫过瘾，导致文化产业看似繁荣实则贫乏空洞。伪“文艺”成为了金钱的奴隶，低级恶俗及商业化炒作流行。很多的电影电视剧，要么拜金炫富，要么歪瓜劣枣，要么小三老少配姐弟恋，要么历史名著乱改一气……票房收视率上去了,可道德文明却丧失了，有些甚至没有了道德底线。

现在已经不太使用“文艺工作者”之类的词汇，更多地是讲“娱乐圈”。娱乐圈走入了怪圈。一些艺人放弃了做人的基本原则，不该露的露了，不该说的说了，不该做的做了;不惜以绯闻、黄赌毒等无底线丑闻，迎合低级趣味的群体需求，越臭身价越高。一些网站为博点击率，大肆炒作推波助澜。那些真正为国为民做出巨大贡献的科学家、文学家、艺木家却鲜有提及，娱乐导向成了最大问题。

周小平花千芳，爱国不需要理由

2015年10月15日上午，习近平总书记在文艺工作座谈会上讲到互联网文学时，专门问道：“听说今天来了两位网络作家，是哪两位啊?”周小平、花千芳迅速站起来并向总书记举手示意，习总书记说：“你们好!”两位年轻的网络作家略显紧张地回答：“您好，总书记!”在座谈会结束时，习近平还走到他们面前，亲切地说：“希望你们创作更多具有正能量的作品。”记者了解到，这位名叫周小平的网络作家，是我们四川老乡，是一位朝气蓬勃的“80后”。近日，他的新书《请不要辜负这个时代》刚刚面世，备受读者热捧。

习近平总书记接见周小平花千芳，不但“德国之声”、“美国之音”挖苦，连一些“中国之声”也怪话连篇。有人认为他俩既无较高学历，又无渊博知识，何能何德值得最高领导人接见。方舟子更是刊发长文，逐条驳斥周小平。周小平花千芳确有这样那样的不足，但以此苛求他们,既不公平,也不客观。我们这个时代，呼唤千千万万个周小平花千芳，用网民喜闻乐见的形式传递“爱国不需要理由”的正能量。

周小平和花千芳，一个是四川的打工仔，一个是辽宁的种地农民,来自于普通的社会底层，有着朴素的爱国主义情怀。在公知们呼风唤雨只手遮天的互联网战场上，他们激情澎湃地歌颂自己的祖国，对未来的祖国提出展望，同时谴责恶意诋毁攻击自祖国的言论，喊出了“沉默的大多数”的心声。如网友所说，“尽管没有火箭炮的覆盖面，也没有激光导弹的精准，但是他们能每一颗子弹消灭一个敌人。”

总书记接见周小平花千芳，是对更多活跃在网络上的爱国者的肯定和鼓励。在实现中国梦的伟大时代，我们有不少欢声笑语;但面对网络生态，也有不少的困惑和痛楚，但是我们不能迷失自己。希望有更多的周小平花千芳们站出来，不辜负这个时代,唱响爱国的最强音。

“小英雄”雷楚年为何迷失在名利场上

2014年11月3日，曾经于十五岁时在汶川地震中勇救七位同学的雷楚年，六年之后因为涉嫌诈骗而站在被告席上。

六年之前，这位胆子特别大的初三学生，面对地动山摇的大地震，表现出常人所不具备的镇定和勇敢，以致他的同学因他而获救：六年之后，面对更日常、更具致命杀伤力的不劳而获、“点铁成金”的诱惑，他也表现出常人所不具备的镇定和大胆，以致自己的骗术屡屡得手，最后把自己送到审判台上。

我想起了那些才华橫溢、却最后要在吸毒嫖娼中寻求刺激的艺术家们。当一些曾经相当有追求、有理想、有成就的艺术家再也找不到那种自由的感觉和激情四射的创造力时，他们心慌了，他们中有一些人不约而同地在毒品和混乱的性关系中寻找刺激。也许，对他们来说，只有这样才不会被某种成功之后的空虚感所压倒和吞噬。

福，祸之所倚。任何一种成功都隐含着将成功者吞噬的凶险，尤其是对于少年得志者来说。但是，如果有人认真研究少年雷楚年的个性和优缺点，和他的法定监护人一起负起培养和造就他的品质的责任，悲剧就可能不发生;如果当地教育部门把他送到一个适合他的学习程度和潜力的学校，他就不觉得上学不过是一场游戏，他会好好念完书;如果媒体不是把他捧得过高，他就不会觉得自己拥有干什么都可以的特权;如果我们这个社会不把他当作一个缺少英雄的时代的稀缺资源加以膜拜和消费，他就不至于被推上神坛：如果有人来利用他的所谓资源而达到自己不恰当的目的时，有人提醒他，他也许会在大错铸成之前被劝阻。当然，这些只是如果。

周浩弃北大读技校的启示

2014年11月4日，第六届全国数控技能大赛决赛开幕式在北京工业技师学院举行。在会场，一个看起来很沉稳的男孩代表参赛选手进行宣誓，他的一举一动时刻吸引着媒体记者们的眼球。他就是周浩。周浩有足够让人惊讶的经历。3年前，他从北京大学退学，转学到北京工业技师学院，从众人艳羡的高材生到普通的技校学生，从北大生命科学研究院人才储备军到如今还未就业的技术工人。这样的身份转变，就足以让人不敢相信。周浩这样做了，并且谈起当年的决定，“毫不后悔，很庆幸”。

现在就对周浩作出人生成败的评价，还为时过早，但认为周浩是一个有思想的人，一点也不过分。从选择北大到放弃北大，是一次艰苦的选择，而从放弃北大到就读技校，则是一次愉快的跨越。

有想法的人才有活出精彩的潜能。笔者不给周浩弃北大读技校点赞，因为转校有风险，但对其坚持自我、坚持理想表示钦佩。做一些社会公众认可的事情，会少一些挫折和争议;而做一个特别的自己，虽然几多风险，但精彩往往源于此。

每年的公历四月五日前后为清明节，是二十四节气之一。今年的清明节是4月4日。在二十四个节气中，既是节气又是节日的只有清明。清明节是我国传统节日，也是最重要的祭祀节日。按照旧的习俗，祭祀(扫墓)时，人们要携带酒食果品、纸钱等物品到墓地，将食物供祭在亲人墓前，再将纸钱焚化，为坟墓培上新土，折几枝嫩绿的新枝插在坟上，然后叩头行礼祭拜，最后吃掉酒食回家。清明节，又叫踏青节，正是春光明媚草木吐绿的时节，也正是人们春游的好时候，所以古人有清明踏青，并开展一系列体育活动的的习俗。直到今天，清明节祭拜祖先，悼念已逝的亲人的习俗仍很盛行。

Celebrated two weeks after the vernal equinox， Tomb Sweeping Day is one of the few traditional Chinese holidays that follows the solar calendar-- typically falling on April 4， 5， or 6.

Its Chinese name "Qing Ming" literally means "Clear Brightness，" hinting at its importance as a celebration of Spring. Similar to the spring festivals of other cultures， Tomb Sweeping Day celebrates the rebirth of nature， while marking the beginning of the planting season and other outdoor activities.

Qing Ming Jiein Ancient Times

An old man takes one last look before leaving the City Cemetery at Biandanshan of Wuhan， Central Chinas Hubei Province.In ancient times， people celebrated Qing Ming Jie with dancing， singing， picnics， and kite flying. Colored boiled eggs would be broken to symbolize the opening of life. In the capital， the Emperor would plant trees on the palace grounds to celebrate the renewing nature of spring. In the villages， young men and women would court each other.

The Tomb Sweeping Day as Celebrated Today

With the passing of time， this celebration of life became a day to the honor past ancestors. Following folk religion， the Chinese believed that the spirits of deceased ancestors looked after the family. Sacrifices of food and spirit money could keep them happy， and the family would prosper through good harvests and more children.

Today， Chinese visit their family graves to tend to any underbrush that has grown. Weeds are pulled， and dirt swept away， and the family will set out offerings of food and spirit money. Unlike the sacrifices at a familys home altar， the offerings at the tomb usually consist of

dry， bland food. One theory is that since any number of ghosts rome around a grave area， the less appealing food will be consumed by the ancestors， and not be plundered by strangers.

Honoring Ancestors

Honoring ancestors begins with proper positioning of a gravesite and coffin. Experts in feng shui， or geomancy， determine the quality of land by the surrounding aspects of streams， rivers， trees， hills， and so forth. An area that faces south， with groves of pine trees creates the best flow of cosmic energy required to keep ancestors happy. Unfortunately， nowadays， with Chinas burgeoning population， public cemetaries have quickly surplanted private gravesites. Family elders will visit the gravesite at least once a year to tend to the tombs.

While bland food is placed by the tombs on Qing Ming Jie， the Chinese regularly provide scrumptious offerings to their ancestors at altar tables in their homes. The food usually consists of chicken， eggs， or other dishes a deceased ancestor was fond of. Accompanied by rice， the dishes and eating utensils are carefully arranged so as to bring good luck. Sometimes， a family will put burning incense with the offering so as to expedite the transfer of nutritious elements to the ancestors. In some parts of China， the food is then eaten by the entire family.Kites

Besides the traditions of honoring the dead， people also often fly kits on Tomb Sweeping Day. Kites can come in all kinds of shapes， sizes， and colors. Designs could include frogs， dragonflies， butterflies， crabs， bats，and storks.

高考英语中常见的话题有哪些呢?下面是语文迷整理的十五大高考英语话题作文素材，希望对你有帮助。

一、面对挑战的感悟

Looking back on this, I realize that whatever challenges I am faced with, I will spare no effort and never give up. I’m sure to achieve final victory and become what I should be.

二、怎样看待司机的行为?

After reading the passage, I felt very angry with the driver. It was what he did that did shock me. I can’t believe the driver is so cruel. Generally speaking, the responsibility of a bus driver is to serve people. However, the driver is short of essential occupational morality. Having known the woman’s arm was stuck in the bus door, he continued to drive his bus. What an evil-minded driver!

三、对交友的看法

In my view, it takes time to build good relationship with others. You can’t expect to become good friends with someone soon after you meet him. You also can’t expect to become good friends with others if you do not spend time with them.

四、对心理问题的看法

As far as I’m concerned, mental problems are serious problems both in universities and middle schools. I believe physical and mental health is more important than good grades. Therefore, parents and teachers should first pay attention to students’ feelings. Only when they feel it fun to study, can they learn their lessons well.

五、对网络教育的看法

Personally, I appreciate this new form of education. It can provide different learners with more flexible ways to learn. Most of all, with online education, we can absorb the latest knowledge.

六、怎样应对同伴压力

First of all, since the whole world is full of peer pressure, we have to know that it is not easy for us to avoid it. Secondly, find out the truth about something and you’ll really feel better.

七、态度决定一切的启示

Different attitudes lead to different results. Take Xiao Hua for example, He’s my classmate. He always puts his heart into study, so he has become a top student in our class. With his diligence and concentration, he’s bound to succeed in the entrance examination. However, Xiao Li never cares about his study and turns a deaf ear to the teachers’ advice. As a result, he falls far behind others in his study.

八、对…行为的看法

As for me, Marry is really great because she’s ready to do…that seems very small. Maybe what she is doing is very common in others’ eyes but it will play an important role in our daily life.

九、目标的重要性(看法)

I was greatly inspired by such a story as it makes me realize the power of a goal in shaping one’s success and gives me strength to pursue my goal despite the hardships I’m to go through.

In my opinion, goals are important in our life. To begin with, as goals often enables us to be positive to ups and downs in our life. Moreover, bearing goals in mind, we’re less likely to be distracted from our way to success. Finally, as goals are what we’re longing for, they thus can motivate us to strive for greater achievements, making our life more fulfilling(令人满意的).

十、对考验的感受

From the story I’ve learned that the trials of life are of great importance in our growth. As the saying goes, “No cross, no crown(不经历风雨怎么见彩虹).” Only by facing and overcoming difficulties in our life can we grow up happily and healthily.

十一、对中学生活的感受

As for me, a student from the country, what I do every day is to devote myself to realizing my dream of attending a key university. So I seldom have time to do outdoor activities. Anyway, I’ve become more independent and as a student of boarding school, my experience has become a benefit in my future college life.

十二、有关命运转折点的启示

The passage inspired me greatly as I come to know that the happiness of life lies in our own hands. Although he was hopeless in any sport at school, He didn’t give up. Despite what others say about him, he made up his mind to improve himself push his body to the limit. With his determination and perseverance, he made a difference in his life.

十三、对街头食品的看法

As far as I’m concerned, I often purchase some street food on my way to school in the morning because it is very convenient to me. As a student, I can’t spend much time waiting or eating in a restaurant. It is well-known that street food is very popular in cities and towns because they are tasty, quick and cheap, which attract a large number of customers every day. Most of them are so busy with their study and work that they can’t spare much time to enjoy their meals.

十四、如何更好地鼓励孩子学习

To get kids motivated to learn, I think we should not treat every child in the same way. To some kids, oral praise is essential. Don’t save the praise for only the top score. If possible, involve other adults in praising them. However, this method may not work well with other kids. Maybe what is more important to them is to watch a movie or go on a trip together with their parents. It just depends.

十五、如何适应大学生活

As far as I’m concerned, college life differs from middle school life a lot. So I think the ideal university life should help me get well prepared for society, including obtaining academic knowledge.

I think I will take an active part in all kinds of activities, as well as study hard to achieve my ideal university life.
