翻译：

我们家已经有三年没有回老家了，今年我们终于可以回到我们的老家过年了。我们经过17个小时的行程，终于到达了目的地。一下车迎接我们的是小姨，姐姐和外公外婆。因为我们匆匆赶路，到家时已经又累又饿，于是赶紧洗洗就睡觉了。

第二天一早，我们就去了三外公家，在他家，有好多有趣的动物，有狗，有鱼。当然最有趣的是公鸡和母鸡。公鸡和母鸡可有趣啦！吃饭的时候，只要给它们一点米，它们就会争先恐后的去抢。公鸡吃饱后，就会像打鸣一样叫几下，而母鸡吃饱后就会回到窝里去下蛋。在这个时候，我拿一个木板在母鸡眼前晃一晃，母鸡就吓到了，于是扑的飞起来，我的脸就被母鸡的翅膀撞了一下。撞得生疼生疼的。于是我心里想：明年我一定要把你吃了不可。

时间过得很快，不知不觉我们已经给家里所有的亲戚拜过年了，马上就要走了。我好依依不舍呀，不过妈妈说我们明年还能回来。听了这句话我心里好多了。最后，祝大家在新的一年里，万事如意，心想事成！

Of course, chopsticks instead the main difference on the Chinese dinner table isof knife and fork, but thats only superficial. Besides, in decent restaurants, you can always ask for a pair of knife and fork, if you find the chopsticks not helpful enough.

The real difference is that in the West, you have your own plate of food, while in China the dishes are placed on the table and everyone shares. If you are being treated to a formal dinner and particularly if the host thinks youre in the country for the first time, he will do the best to give you a taste of many different types of dishes.

The meal usually begins with a set of at least four cold dishes, to be followed by the main courses of hot meat and vegetable dishes. Soup then will be served (unless in Guangdong style restaurants) to be followed by staple food ranging from rice, noodles to dumplings.

If you wish to have your rice to go with other dishes, you should say so in good time, for most of the Chinese choose to have the staple food at last or have none of them at all.

Perhaps one of the things that surprises a Western visitor most is that some of the Chinese hosts like to put food into the plates of their guests. In formal dinners, there are always "public" chopsticks and spoons for this purpose, but some hosts may use their own chopsticks. This is a sign of genuine friendship and politeness. It is always polite to eat the food. If you do not eat it, just leave the food in the plate.

People in China tend to over-order food, for they will find it embarrassing if all the food is consumed. When you have had enough, just say so. Or you will always overeat!

当然,筷子而不是主要的区别中餐桌上isof刀和叉,但这只是表面现象。此外,在体面的餐厅,你可以要求一副刀叉,如果你发现筷子不够有用。

真正的区别在于,在西方,你有自己的板的食品,在中国菜放在桌子上,每个人的股份。如果你对待一个正式的晚宴,特别是如果主人认为你在这个国家第一次,他会做最好的给你的许多不同类型的菜肴。

这顿饭通常始于一组至少有四个冷盘,紧随其后的是主菜的热肉和蔬菜。汤然后将服务(除非在广东风格的餐馆)将从主食米饭,面条,饺子。

如果你想拥有你的大米去与其他菜,你应该及时这么说,对大多数中国人选择主食最后或没有。

也许让西方游客感到最惊奇的事情之一是,一些中国东道主喜欢把食物放在客人的盘子。在正式晚宴,总有“公共”为此筷子和勺子,但一些虚拟主机可以用自己的筷子。这是一个真正的友谊和礼貌的迹象。总是有礼貌的吃食物。如果你不吃它,只是把盘子里的食物。

中国人倾向于over-order食物,因为他们会发现它令人尴尬的如果所有的食品消费。当你有足够的,就这么说。否则你会总是暴饮暴食!

On May 4, a worthy of our anniversary festival forever. Ninety years ago that a whoop, like giant thunderbolt tore up the old China feudal remnants of the dream of more than two thousand years.

The footsteps of the time in a hurry, is too late to the last wave, before New Year is here. Dreams of the New Year always give a person too much, too much imagination.

New Year begins, we shine the sky with hope, across all the clouds on the sky, it is waving the banner of progress. We use power across the earth, and the fresh wind blows the earth, that is the pace of progress of eager feelings.

Open Windows, stumbled on the corner for a little green, the green is so bright, light up my eyes, my heart. In this cold day, the grass of the New Year struggle, effort.

Think about yourself for the past year, but found no impression, at this moment, I realized, originally in the past days, I had no sense, that doesnt even have a memorable things. But I, still as always carefree. "Spring", which made me intellectual awakening: the New Year, new starting line, a new starting point. Is to continue the past meaningless days, or in the new look to meet new future, all in my deserve. Maybe the answer even I myself dont know, the more unpredictable. But, I can grasp, is action from now on. After no matter what will be their own path, but I can at least console yourself, I tried, I never give up, I changed a little bit of the way of life with actions.

People all say, everyone needs a plan, now I think that plan will never catch up with change, rather than by those who plan to freeze their own life, not abandon them, as long as your heart always wont forget what you want to do, what to do, so you may have more in your life, a better development.

If compared the success to a road, the effort is the soil of the road, endless dirt piled up together, to make you move forward step by step, step by step to success. Maybe the process is bitter, is tired, but when you come to the end, you will feel once pay, is so worth it, because of the once efforts, to change the now his success.

The New Year, I want to a lot of, but think everyone has, I will not only do thinker, Ill be a actor.

那岁月的脚步匆匆而去，都还来不及向去年挥挥手，新年就到了面前。新年总会给人太多的憧憬，太多的畅想。

新年开始了，我们用希望擦亮天空，天空上飘过朵朵云彩，那是前进的旗帜挥舞的情景。我们用力量横扫大地，大地上吹过清新之风，那是前进的步伐展现的热切情怀。

推开窗门，偶然发现墙角已有一点绿色，这绿是那么的耀眼，照亮了我的双眼，直冲我的心灵。在这个严寒的日子里，小草都开始新一年的奋斗，努力。

想想自己过去的一年，却发现一点印象都没有，这时，我才明白，原来过去的日子，我过的毫无意义，以至连一点值得回忆的事情都没有。而我，却还是一如既往的悠闲。“一年之计在于春”，这使我顿然醒悟：新的一年，新的起跑线，新的出发点。是要继续过去的毫无意义的日子，还是以新的面貌迎接新的未来，全在我的一念之间。或许，这个答案连我自己也不知道，更无法预料。但是，我所能掌握的，就是从现在开始行动。不管以后自己的道路将会是怎样，但是，我至少能聊以自慰的是，我努力过，我不曾放弃过，我用行动改变了一点点的人生的道路。

人们都说，每个人都需要有计划，现在的我认为，计划永远赶不上变化，与其被那些计划定格自己的人生，不如抛弃他们，只要你的心中时时不会忘记自己要做什么，该做什么，那么你的人生或许会有更多的，更好的发展道路。

若把成功比作一条道路，那么努力便是这条路的泥土，无尽的泥土堆砌在一起，才能让你一步步的前进，一步步的走向成功。也许，这个过程是苦的，是累的，可当你走到终点的时候，你便会觉得曾经的付出，是那么的值得，因为有了曾经的努力，才换的了如今自己的成功。

新的一年，自己想了很多，可是想法每个人都有，我不会只做思考者，我会做一个行动者。

The new year is coming!Now,its the time to make plans for the new year.Here is what I will do:

Dear Mr. Cao

happy new year!

On the night of new years Eve, my parents and I went to Lianhua Mountain

to visit Deng Xiaoping after the reunion. The streets are deserted, and many

people have returned to their hometown. I think of the 23rd day of the twelfth

lunar month when my grandparents were busy cleaning the house and buying all

kinds of new years products. I am curious: why is the Spring Festival so busy?

Why are so many people desperate to buy tickets back home for the new year? What

are the customs and traditions of Chinese Spring Festival? Why do my parents

take me to pay a new years visit to grandfather Deng?

With these questions, I immediately found a book about Chinese Spring

Festival folklore when I went home. The book introduces many customs, including

pasting New Year pictures. It is said that the characters in the New Year

pictures can ward off evil spirits, eat reunion dinner, legend of new year

animals, offering sacrifices to the kitchen and sweeping the Chen, meeting the

God of wealth, etc. One of the most impressive is the kitchen and sweeping the

Chen.

Among the people, the traditional Spring Festival begins on the 23rd of the

twelfth lunar month and ends with the Lantern Festival. As the saying goes, "23,

sacrifice to the kitchen official." The kitchen official is the monitoring God

of the world. At this time of year, the kitchen official will go to heaven to

report everything on earth, so the people will worship him on the 23rd of the

twelfth lunar month. No matter how small the household is, they should clean up

the stove, several cases, pots and pans, and prepare kitchen cakes and sugar for

sacrifice. The kitchen cake is the dry food that the kitchen god wants to bring,

and the kitchen sugar should be put on the kitchen gods mouth. The cooking

sugar is made from malt. It tastes very sweet and sticky. It is put on the

kitchen gods mouth to let him "say good things from heaven and keep peace in

the lower world".

After the sacrifice, the kitchen was cleaned up. In the old days, it was

called "sweeping Chen", and "Chen" was homophonic with "dust", so sweeping Chen

was to sweep the dust in an all-round way. This is more detailed and

comprehensive than the usual cleaning. The places that are not easy to clean at

ordinary times, such as spider webs on the roof, dust, furniture corners, doors

and windows, etc., should be wiped clean with bamboo poles and rags. Bed sheets

and quilt covers will also be removed and cleaned. Some people even paint the

walls and paint doors and windows to make the interior look brand new.

There is no custom of offering sacrifices to the kitchen in our family. We

will "sweep the Chen" every year. This is the traditional virtue of the Chinese

nation, which loves to be clean and clean. In the future, I will also help my

family to clean up the house together.

There are also a lot of folk stories, I will tell you slowly after the

beginning of school.

Best wishes

Good health and good luck!

The Chinese manners is differend from other countries .In China, people first meet to shake hands.When people eat,Besides soup, table all food use chopsticks.Certain foods can move chopsticks eyes.And sometimes the Chinese host use their chopsticks to put food in your bowl or plate. This is a sign of politeness. The appropriate thing to do would be to eat the whatever-it-is and say how yummy it is. If you feel uncomfortable with this, you can just say a polite thank you and leave the food there.

Dont tap on your bowl with your chopsticks.Beggars tap on their bowls, so this is not polite.Also, when the food is coming too slow in a restarant, people will tap their bowls. If you are in someones home,it is like insulting the cook.

中国的礼仪是不同于来自其他国家的。在中国,人们第一次见面握手。当人们吃,除了汤之外,表所有食品使用筷子。某些食物可以动筷子的眼睛。有时中国主人用筷子把食物在你的碗或盘子。这是礼貌的标志。适当的事是吃不管它是什么,说有多美味。如果你觉得不舒服,你可以只说一个礼貌的谢谢,让那里的食物。

不要用筷子敲打饭碗。乞丐行乞时常敲打饭碗,所以,这是不礼貌的。同样,当食物来restarant太慢,人们会利用他们的碗。如果你在某人的家里,它就像侮辱厨师。

On New Year‘s Eve, our class had a party. The atmosphere was good. It was out of the ordinary from the very begining. The boy student from one bedroom gave an unusual performance. We saw a boy named Li Xinmin turn off all the lights in a sudden snap. Then with three resounding crow of a cock echoing in the hall, the hall was again brightly lit in a snap.

Then, the representative of the bedroom Zhu Guozhang asked us to guess a line of a poem related to the above situation. He added that Li Xinmin alone was born in the year of the dog and the other three were all born in the year of the chicken. They left us all in confusion. And it was our monitor who was quickwitted. He shouted our, The day breaks as the cock crows three times at dawn. The hall After that, they had another item. This time Li Xinmin was placed in the middle of the circle. While he was standing there, the other three stood around him, each bowing down to him at an angle of 120 degrees. It was an idiom. This time I got it right:The dog stands out among a group of chickens.

A Bite of China, a mouth-watering late-night documentary television series featuring delicious Chinese food, has attracted countless viewers, and moved many to tears.

Given its subject matter and time slot, A Bite of China was initially considered a "weak player" on TV. Surprisingly, the documentary became popular immediately after airing, and has made viewers go beyond thinking about delicacies.

"Man is what he eats," said Ludwig Feuerbach. From its very beginning, A Bite of China is not just a documentary about food. "The scenes of digging for bamboo shoots, hanging hams, catching fish using a net, opening a steamer filled with white steamed buns, and pulling wheat dough into thin strands for noodles move us to tears. What a lovely China!" a viewer said.

nowadays， more and more people like to travel in their holidays。 the other day i read a report about the ways people spend their holidays。 it is reported that in recent yiars several new holiday habits have been developed。 among them， the most interesting one is the growth of the so-called holiday camps。

from the report we can see that in 1990，40 percent of people stayed at home for holidays。 but now the proportion has reduced to 9 percent。 more people go out for fun。 the proportion of camping and traveling abroad was increasing steadily， from 10 percent in 1990 to 38 percent in 2002， and 12 percent in 1990 to 26 percent in 2002 respectively。 people enjoy the fresh air， clean water and green hills when they go camping in the suburbs。 in 1990，38 percent people enjoyed going to the seaside while in 2002 only 27 percent prefer to go there。 what great changes!

why did those changes appear? i think there are several reasons。 first， it s because people can afford traveling。 second， people prefer to pursue a high-quality and colorful life。 third， their attitudes to relaxation have changed。 less people want to save much money by leading a simple life。 in short， peoples living standard today has been rising greatly。

Dear Mr. Shan

Hello! The Spring Festival is coming. I sincerely wish you a happy new year

and smooth work!

I have been getting along with you for four years. When I first came into

this campus, I was still a little girl. You taught me how to learn and how to be

a person. I remember that I got the first full mark in the Chinese test in grade

one. Your encouraging words and affirmative eyes have made me unforgettable.

Since then, I have determined to be a good student with both good character and

learning.

Mr. Shan, I know that my handwriting is not good. Every time I see you

annotate "write carefully" at the end of your homework, I feel very ashamed.

This winter vacation, I set a goal for myself to practice calligraphy for an

hour every day. Do you know what? I have written the words in the fourth grade

Chinese textbook three times and practiced each word 12 times, so as not to let

you worry about my words any more.

Single teacher, I quietly tell you that I like you very much. It is you who

have taught me rich knowledge, you have taught me the truth of being a man, it

is you who have cultivated my positive and enterprising character, and you have

given me a pair of powerful wings to let me roam in the world of knowledge!

Single teacher, you have worked hard for us. You should pay more attention

to your body and drink more water, which is good for your voice. Id like to

express my highest respect to you! I can only repay you with excellent results -

teacher, you have worked hard!

I wish you a happy New Year!

Mr. Cao

Hello!

Today, I would like to recommend a book for you. The name of this book is

"primary school students reading aid Library - folk culture". This book is

about the origin and customs of Chinese festivals. The reason why I like this

book is that when it introduces the calendar of festivals, it always tells a

story about the situation at that time. And each article is extremely vivid,

from which we can not only learn the origin of many customs, but also understand

some unknown history and legend.

My favorite article is called "Chongyang climbing, drinking with dogwood.".

This article is about the origin of the Double Ninth Festival. It is said that

there was a pestilence devil in Zhuangnan of the Han Dynasty, which was

extremely ferocious, and would come out to harm people every September 9. There

is a man named Huanjing in Zhuangnan county. Because Huanjings parents died in

the hands of the pestilence devil, Huanjing wanted to kill the pestilence devil

to avenge his parents. On this day, Huan Jing packed up and went to practice

magic arts with the famous immortal Fei Changfang, hoping to kill the evil

devil. After a long journey, Huan Jing finally found the immortal Fei Changfang.

However, things have not been smooth. After Huan Jing explained his intention,

Fei Changfang refused Huan Jings request. So Huan Jing knelt outside Fei

Changfang for two days and two nights. At last, Fei Changfang was moved by Huan

Jings sincerity and accepted him as an apprentice and taught him various

skills. On the ninth day of September the next year, Fei Changfang reckoned that

the pestilence would enter the southern city again and harm people. He ordered

Huan Jing to give him some dogwood leaves and chrysanthemum wine and send him

back to zhuangnang city. When Huan Jing arrived in Zhuangnan, he took the people

to the mountain, and let everyone drink chrysanthemum wine, and filled the

mountain with Cornus. After that, Huan Jing stood in front of the mountain with

a knife. After a while, the pestilence came as expected. It wanted to go up the

mountain and eat people. Huan Jing stopped him, so they fought together. The

smell of Cornus and dogwood is not stable for a few rounds. He raised a knife

from the mountain. The plague devil was removed, and the people in Nancheng

finally lived a comfortable life. Since then, in order to commemorate September

9, people have designated September 9 as the Double Ninth Festival. On this day,

people will climb high with their families, fill the mountains with Cornus and

drink chrysanthemum wine to pray for themselves and their families. This is the

origin of the Double Ninth Festival on September 9.

I like this legend best, because I think Huanjings persistence and bravery

are worth learning.

Finally, I hope you can enjoy this story. When you are free, you may as

well read this book with me.

wish

good health!
