When autumn comes, I feel so excited, because the sports meeting comes. I

like sports so much. When I was very small, my father took me to watch the

basketball match, in the long time, sports have become part of my life. When I

started to come to school, I join the basketball team, I had the great time to

practice with my friends. Though high school life is very busy and I have to

learn so many subjects, I still keep taking exercise everyday. Sports meeting

time is my favorite time in the semester. I can take part in many activities,

such as basketball and high jump. I am full of energy, I just want to enjoy the

moment of taking exercise. Sports meeting indeed brings students many energy and

make the students become active. They can also exercise their bodies.

Every year in October, our school will have the tradition to hold a sports

meeting. It is the biggest event of the year, so all the students will practise

very hard to win the biggest honor. Relay race is the most important match,

because it involves so many students to take part in, showing the unity of a

team. Last year, our class won the second place. We lagged behind the champion

just a little distance, so we hoped to defeated them this time and won the first

prize. We have practised very hard, and every student in the team wanted to make

the breakthrough. When the match finally began, we ran very fast and kept our

space. Even though other team tried to disturbed us, we focused our attention.

The moment when our team first crossed the line, we cheer and cried. We made

it.

我盼星星，盼月亮，终于盼来了端午节。我期盼已久的端午节包粽子活动终于来到了。

今天我来到作文学校老师说：“今天我们要包粽子。”全班欢呼起来!

老师拿来了材料，我们所有人洗完手围在了一起，老师先做了个示范，“首先我们拿一片箬叶圈成一个三角形底下一定要弄紧，然后用勺子舀一勺糯米放在圈好的箬叶里，弄实，不要有空隙，接下来把表面压平，用露出来的箬叶封好，最后用粽绳把粽子捆紧。”大功告成，一个完美的粽子包好了，老师举起来让大家看清楚，所有人都迫不及待了，用期待的眼神看着老师，老师仿佛看懂了我们的心思，微笑着说道：“开始吧，都试一试吧!”

大家像支离弦的箭，飞一般地冲了过去，我蹦蹦跳跳地跑了过去心想：“看老师包粽子好像很简单，我一定也可以。”过了一会儿，我的粽子只差最后一步了!我用劲压下去，老师也来帮我，我眼里充满了开心，以为我的第一个粽子就要完成了!结果我反反复复地压它，把箬叶弄破了。第一次尝试就这样失败了，我眼里的开心走了，只剩下了失望!

于是我又重新拿材料包了一次，前面的步骤我不一会儿就弄好了，到了最后一步了，这次我眼里快喷出火来了，死死的盯着粽子，我压呀压，啊，又破了!又要重新包了，我已经没有信心了，垂头丧气的，任小雪这时看见了过来帮我。不一会儿任小雪居然帮我包好了，我又惊讶又开心，我的第一个粽子包好了。

虽然这次包粽子很不顺心，但是我依然很喜欢包粽子，很喜欢端午节，我相信我下次一定会包的更好的。

今天是农历五月初五端午节，我们去奶奶家吃粽子。

路上，我问妈妈：“妈妈，端午节是怎么来的，为什么要赛龙舟和吃粽子?”妈妈说：“端午节五月初五，可能是因为这段时间蚊子等害虫比较多，所以古代先贤教育老百姓用艾草、菖蒲驱赶害虫免得生病。赛龙舟是春秋时期百越地区以龙舟竞渡方式祭水中蛟龙，吃粽子是纪念我国战国时期楚国爱国主义诗人屈原。”

一进奶奶家，奶奶已经在忙了。奶奶一看见我，就高兴地让我和她一起包粽子。只见奶奶把粽叶折成斗状，盛满糯米，再把粽叶层层包上，用线紧紧绑牢，一个粽子就包好了。我也学着奶奶的样子，不亦乐乎地包起来，但每次不是馅弄太多，裹都裹不了，就是绑得太松，稍微一动，米粒就会争先恐后地从各个角落钻出来。每当这个时候，奶奶总是鼓励我：“没关系，不要灰心，只要你去努力，总会成功的。”

虽说包粽子不行，可吃起来我最在行。锅里粽子的香气渐渐弥漫了整个房间，奶奶一掀开锅盖，我便迫不及待地扒了一个，“哎呦，好烫!”我忍不住把粽子扔回了锅里，并吹了吹手指头。奶奶一边笑一边用碗重新给我盛了一个粽子，我接过碗，对着粽子吹了几下，然后解开绳子，扒开粽叶，对着粽子就是一口，哇，糯米里既有肉的味道，又有蜜枣的味道，还有它自己本身糯糯的味道;蜜枣里既有糯米的味道，又有肉的味道，还有它本身甜丝丝的味道;肉里既有糯米的味道，又有蜜枣的味道，还有它本身嫩嫩的味道，真好吃。

没过几分钟，我便吃完了，但我却舍不得把粽叶扔了，因为粽子实在太好吃了，我一定要把粽叶上的每一粒糯米都吃了再扔。

端午节真好，我真爱端午节。

战国时代楚秦争夺霸权，诗人屈原位列右大夫，很受楚王器重。后来，屈原的主张遭到上官大夫靳尚为首的守旧派的反对，他们不断在楚怀王的面前诋毁屈原，楚怀王渐渐疏远了屈原。有着远大抱负的屈原倍感痛心，他怀着难以抑制的忧郁悲愤，写出了《离骚》、《天向》等不朽诗篇。

No public 229 years ago, the state of Qin conquered the eight cities, and then sent envoys please go to the representative qin.

The Dragon Boat Festival， also called the Duanwu Festival， is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to the Chinese calendar. This festival is to commemorate the death of QU Yuan， an upright and honest poet and statesman who is said to have committed suicide by drowning himself in a river.

The most important activity of this festival is the Dragon Boat races. It symbolizes people‘s attempts to rescue Qu Yuan. In the current period， these races also demonstrate the virtues of cooperation and teamwork.

Besides， the festival has also been marked by eating zong zi (glutinous rice)。 Zong zi is made of glutinous rice stuffed with different fillings and wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves. People who mourned the death of Qu threw Zong zi into the river to feed his ghost every year.

With the changes of the times， the memorial turns to be a time for protection from evil and disease for the rest of year. People will hang healthy herbs on the front door to clear the bad luck of the house. Although the significance of the festival might be different with the past， it still gives the observer an opportunity to glimpse a part of the rich Chinese cultural heritage.

端午节，又称端午节，是庆祝第五个月的第五天的农历。这个节日是为了纪念屈原的逝世，他是一位正直诚实的诗人和政治家，据说他是在河里淹死的。

这个节日最重要的活动是龙舟比赛。它象征着人们试图拯救屈原。在这段时间里，这些比赛也展示了合作和团队合作的优点。

此外，端午节还以吃粽子(糯米)为特色，粽子是用糯米馅的糯米做成的，用竹叶或芦苇叶包着。哀悼屈原逝世的人每年都把粽子丢进河里喂他的鬼。

随着时代的变迁，纪念馆将成为一个保护远离邪恶和疾病的时间。人们会在前门挂上健康的草药来清除房子的坏运气。尽管这个节日的意义可能与过去不同，但它仍然给了观察者一个机会，让他们看到中国丰富的文化遗产的一部分。

it hurts to love someone and not be loved in return. but what is more painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let that person know how you feel.a sad thing in life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and you just have to let go.

the best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation youve ever had.its true that we dont know what weve got until we lose it, but its also true that we dont know what weve been missing until it arrives.it takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone- but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. dont go for looks; they can deceive. dont go for wealth, even that fades away. go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.

dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.always put yourself in the others shoes. if you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the person too.a careless word may kindle strife; a cruel word may wreck a life; a timely word may level stress; a loving word may heal and bless.the happiest of people dont necessarily have the best of everything they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, ends with a tear. when you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. live your life so that when you die, youre the one smiling and everyone around you is crying.

Ladies and gentlemen,From Chart 1, we can see high school students are from different family backgrounds.

Besides local students, who make up 91 percent, eight percent of the students are the children of non-local workers. Another 1 percent are foreigner students.

As is shown in chart 2, sixty percent of them intend to go to university, which is double the

number of those who will attend vocational schools. Besides, the other ten percent choose to go abroad for further study.

In conclusion, it seems clear that our city government has made more efforts to help the non-local workers, whose children can enjoy the equal right of a good education with the city

students. Also with the economic development of our city, more foreigners are attracted to set up businesses here and they are happy to send their children to local schools to learn more about China and Chinese culture. In addition, we have more freedom to choose what we would like to do after graduation. Going to college is no longer the only choice for most of us as it was years ago.

农历五月初五，是中国民间的传统节日——端午节，它是中华民族古老的传统节日之一。端午也称端五，端阳。此外，端午节还有许多别称，如：午日节、重五节，五月节、浴兰节、女儿节，天中节、地腊、诗人节、龙日等等。虽然名称不同，但总体上说，各地人民过节的习俗还是同多于异的。

过端午节，是中国人二千多年来的传统习惯，由于地域广大，民族众多，加上许多故事传说，于是不仅产生了众多相异的节名，而且各地也有着不尽相同的习俗。其内容主要有：女儿回娘家，挂钟馗像，迎鬼船、躲午，帖午叶符，悬挂菖蒲、艾草，游百病，佩香囊，备牲醴,赛龙舟，比武，击球，荡秋千，给小孩涂雄黄，饮用雄黄酒、菖蒲酒，吃五毒饼、咸蛋、粽子和时令鲜果等，除了有迷信色彩的活动渐已消失外，其余至今流传中国各地及邻近诸国。有些活动，如赛龙舟等，已得到新的发展，突破了时间、地域界线，成为了国际性的体育赛事。

The dream blooming flower Everyone has a dream, a beautiful dream. Different environment, different life background, experience of things different, everyone’s dream is also different. Some people want to become national leaders, some people want to be a scientist, and some people want to become a businessman. The dream I just want to be an ordinary person. Do the people useful things in ordinary post. For example, when a teacher, to impart knowledge to the next generation; when a doctor, save dead trauma; when a gardener, contribute to the greening of the environment. The dream is beautiful, but to achieve the dream, no words can, in the dreams of the road, will encounter difficulties, setbacks, resistance, if did not have the courage, will, you will be very difficult to realize his dreams. The dream cannot do without knowledge, so I think the first step to realize my dream is to accumulate knowledge, we now need to do is to Study hard, overcome the difficulties in learning, grasp more knowledge, to lay the foundation for the realization of dreams. Let us brave to face life

The Rules of Making Friends

We all like to make friends, we live in a society that we need to communicate with others. Without a friend, one can never express his emotions, no one share his sorrow and happiness. Making friends balances ones emotions, you can talk to friends any things, like secret, which you dont want to share with our parents. But here is the fact that not everyone is suitable to be friend, we need to obey the rules. First, the guy must be honest. Honesty is the base of the being friends, to be frank and then to be close. Second, there is something common in you two. The same interest always brings two hearts close, the more something in common, the better, thus he will be your best friends, you can share things with him. Making friends is a big deal, cause if you make the wrong one, you may get the negative thing from him.

我们都喜欢交朋友，我们生活在一个社会，需要彼此交流。没有朋友，一个人不能表达他的情绪，没人分享喜怒哀乐。交朋友能平衡感情，你可以和朋友谈任何事，比如你不会和父母分享的秘密。事实上，并不是所有的人都适合成为朋友，我们需要遵守原则。第一，那个人必须诚实。诚实是成为朋友的基础条件，闯开心扉然后变得亲近。第二，你们两个之间有共同点。共同的兴趣让两颗心靠近，越多共同点越好，因此他会成为你最好的朋友，你可以和他分享事情。交朋友是一件很大的事，因为如果交友不慎，你可能会感染他的一些恶习。

Sharing bike can be seen in every corner of the street, which is very

popular by the public. The foreigners speak highly of sharing bike, because they

can ride the bikes to look around the city and the expense is very cheap. As

people enjoy the convenience of these bikes, the problem comes. We can see that

many bikes have been broken and some are even put in the main road, which brings

trouble to the public. Of course when the media reported the phenomenon,

everybody condemned the negative behavior. Sharing bikes are public property,

all the people have the responsibility to protect them, so after using them, we

should just find a right place to lock them. The small act can present a

person’s nature, so dont let yourself be the rude one.

Water Pollution

With the development of industry, water pollution isbecoming more serious now. The polluted water not only kills fish, it is also harmful to our health. Many people get sick because they drink the polluted water. In some rivers the water is so dirty that they can even kill plants.

We should fight against the pollution. We should stop using harmful things. I wish it is not a dream that in the near future we can have clean rivers again.

Mothers day originated in Greece, the ancient greeks in the day to honor the mother of the gods in Greek mythology Hera. In the 17th century, mothers day spread to England, the British fasting period of the fourth Sunday as mothers day. In this day, away from children will return to their home, to bring small gifts for their mothers.

In the modern sense of mothers day originated in the United States. In 1913, congress passed a bill, on the second Sunday of may every year mothers day as legal. Since then spread to the mothers day!

After mothers day was founded, we get the support of people from different countries all over the world, has become a real international festival. Traditionally, "international mothers day" was held annually on May 11. Although there are some countries that are in the different season of the year to celebrate their own mothers day, however, the majority of countries, including China, such as Denmark, Finland, Italy, Turkey, Australia, and Belgium, etc., is mothers day is celebrated on the second Sunday in May.

母亲节起源于希腊，古希腊人在这一天向希腊神话中的众神之母赫拉致敬。在17世纪中叶，母亲节流传到英国，英国人把封斋期的第四个星期天作为母亲节。在这一天里，出门在外的儿女们将回到家中，给他们的母亲带上一些小礼物。

现代意义上的母亲节起源于美国。1913年，美国国会通过了一份议案，将每年5月的第二个星期天作为法定的母亲节。母亲节从此流传开来!

母亲节创立后，得到了全世界各国人民的支持，已经成了一个名副其实的国际性节日。按惯例，“国际母亲节”被定在每年的5月11日举行。虽然，有一些国家是在一年中不同的时节庆祝属于他们的母亲节，然而，包括我国在内的多数国家，如丹麦、芬兰、意大利、土耳其、澳大利亚和比利时等等，都是在5月的第二个星期日庆祝母亲节的。

May Day that day, I meet my brother and younger brother to play in the riverside wetland park. Im very glad to get off when Im singing while jumping down.

So many people in the park! Some fly a kite, some play in the water, and watch the scenery. My favorite is the reeds. The green reeds sway in the wind, as if to welcome us; There were a few wild duck in the reeds, swam to busy to catch fish and shrimp eat; Little dragonfly fly tired, fell on the reeds, pointed to rest!

The park is really fun, we had a happy May Day.

五一节这天，我相约哥哥和弟弟去滨河湿地公园玩。我非常高兴，下车时我是一边哼着歌一边蹦下去的。

公园里的人真多哪!有的放风筝、有的在水边玩耍、还有的观赏风景。我最喜欢的就是芦苇荡。绿油油的芦苇荡随风摇摆，好像是在欢迎我们的到来;还有几只野鸭在芦苇丛中游来游去，正忙着捉鱼虾吃;小蜻蜓飞累了，落在芦苇尖上休息呢!

公园里可真好玩，我们过了个快乐的五一节。

ncreased stress results in increased productivity--up to a point. However,

this level differs for each of us. Its very much like the stress on a violin

string. Not enough produces a dull. harsh sound. Too much makes sharp, annoying

noir, or causes the string to snap. However, just the right degree can create

magnificent tones. Similarly, we all need to find the proper level of stress

that promotes optimal performance, and enables us to make harmonious music. Good

health is more than just the absence of illness. Rather, it is a very robust

state of physical and emotional well being that acknowledges the importance and

inseparability of mind/body relationships. In the next program. I hope you will

join me in the pursuit of learning how to exploit stress, so that it can work

for you. and make you more productive, rather than self-destructive.

中国文化博大精深，民间有着许许多多传统风俗，如：清明节、元宵节、重阳节、中秋节…在这么多的传统风俗中，我最喜欢五月初五的端午节。

我为什么这么喜欢端午节呢?就让我先讲讲端午节的由来吧!端午节是为了纪念我国爱国诗人屈原。据《史记》记载，屈原是楚怀王的大臣，因受到楚怀王重用，而被小人嫉妒，在楚怀王面前毁谤屈原，屈原渐渐不得重用，最后甚至将屈原流放，屈原满怀悲愤，写下了绝笔作《怀沙》后，投江自尽。而端午节这个节日，就是为了表达楚国人民对屈原的爱戴之情，我也很尊敬屈原这就是我喜欢端午节的原因。

说到端午节的主要习俗，自然是赛龙舟啦!在五月初五这一天，人们都要划龙舟，寓意为：用划龙舟驱散江中的鱼，追赶屈原，以寄托自己的哀思。

还记得去年端午节，我们一家起了个大早，这是阳光明媚的一天，我们怀着期待的心情出发去郊外的一座山上，寻找端午节必备的一种植物。正值初夏，真可谓是“迟日江山丽，春风花草香”，初夏的山中，山花烂漫，花草清香。站在这天然氧吧中让人心旷神怡。柳暗花明又一村，在山上的一个拐角处，我们找到了我们这次目标——艾草。艾草生长在土埂上，从上到下都是细细的一条，它们簇拥在一起，微风吹过时可以看到叶子的正面是绿色的，反面看起来像白白的绒毛，我们高兴地扑向了它，把它裁了下来，立刻飘来一股淡淡的清香，我们高高兴兴地回家去，把艾草挂在了家门口。

回家后，我们立刻开始制作端午节最期盼的食物——粽子。大家都忙碌起来，有的泡粽叶、有的淘糯米、有的洗花生，有的剥红枣，忙得不亦乐乎。包粽子时先把粽叶折成漏斗形，然后再把糯米倒入再加上一些红枣、花生点缀，然后捆绑起来就完工了，没一会儿就把所有的粽子都包好了，看着一排排的粽子就像是一块块的绿宝石。这时候就可以下锅煮了，当水沸腾时，屋里弥漫着粽叶的清香，糯米的米香。让我们很期待粽子能马上出锅。

这就是我喜爱的端午节!

I love to read. When I was three years old, my parents had taught me to

read. They bought me some books with funny and colorful pictures. Soon I was

attracted by these stories and fell in love with reading. Since I went to

school, I often went to the library and it was my favorite place. Studying in

the library provided me a silent environment. The most important thing was that

as so many excellent students sat around me. I felt the great motivation to move

on. I could find the data any time and read the books I liked. I have gained a

lot of knowledge and find the great hour there.

I always care so much about the food I eat, because my stomach is a little

week, so I can’t eat the junk food all the time. The healthy food makes me keep

fit so I eat it. Vegetable is very important, we should eat it every meal. The

fruit contains a lot of vitamins, it is in need. The fish is best for me.
