One sunny afternoon, when I was merrily riding home, I heard "Help! Help!".

一个晴朗的午后，当我开心地骑车回家时，我听到（有人喊）“救命！救命！”。

I rode to the riverside and found a boy of about five in the river struggling. I jumped into the water, swam to the boy and dragged him to the river bank. The boy said he was trying to catch a fish near the river bank and carelessly fell into the water. I asked him where his home was and sent him home.

我（赶紧）骑到河边，发现一个大约5岁的男孩在河里挣扎。我（马上）跳进水里，游向男孩，并把他拖到岸边。男孩说他（刚刚）是在河边试着抓鱼，（后来），一不小心就掉进水里了。我要到了他家地址，并送他回家。

"Thank you very much!" The boys parents said, when I left his home. Though I got home late that afternoon, I was very happy.

一当我要离开他们家的时候，那个男孩的父母说：“非常谢谢你！”尽管在那个下午，我回家晚了，但我还是很开心的。

I heard my mother say Peixing Mathematical Olympiad classes taught well, but this time is not so simple. To the test first, if not the qualified words will not receive stars. Even if you are qualified, but the teacher gives you the time, you can slowly but you slow reaction at the same time to tell the correct answer these errors in the teacher reminded. What the teacher wants is not your correct answer, but what you do not understand!

When I arrived there test, finally know why stars earning so tight! There are a lot of people there! You cant do it when you go up the stairs.

When you go in, the teacher gives you a roll. It looks very simple on the roll. Its always unpleasant when you do it. Made before a few, to the last few questions when I get to the dizzy. The easy answer is in line with the condition, but it does not conform to that condition. I think my head is going to explode! I thought, "I cant spend it all the time!" At that time, I looked at the blackboard to close his eyes and think about the problem. God Kung Fu did not bear the mind and let me write it out! But the rest of the 3 questions I really did not count, and I wrote the answer that I wanted to meet a condition. At that time, I thought I would pass through, the wrong question let the teacher tell me, remember this problem, do not be wrong again!

After the roll out, my heart banged. Fear not! When the teacher read my name, the strained legs were soft, and the past looked at the wrong 4 questions. I was so scared! Mom said three of the questions the teacher will not let you see the papers, do not tell you wrong. Whats more, I was wrong 4 questions! The teacher let me go to the office said let the teacher give me wrong, I didnt react Im close to the edge of the pass. The teacher told me patiently, but I was flurried to think of the problem and say to the teacher, the teacher asked me if you were sure? I said sure, the teacher was patient and I talked a few times, and finally the teacher said, "this is your last chance to answer the right, understand, you will sign up." Do not answer, do not understand even if. I had a quiet mind to think of the answer and tell the teacher once. The teacher took me. I was dumbfounded. I was passing! I passed! I shouted to the downstairs, "Ive passed it!" I was jumping up and down the stairs!

I went down and shouted, "Ive passed it!" Its gone! Its gone! " I now know that what I know in my mind is not as much as I think! I know everything there, and I dont have a lot of it! I want to continue to learn more knowledge and enrich my brain!

在小学实习的每一天都是充满意义与欢乐的，每一天每一名学生都能给我带来新的体验与感悟，我看到他们在成长，在变成一个越来越懂事的大孩子。放学后的路上，甚至不知不觉走过了头儿，又折了回去。回到寝室，我激动的心情溢于言表!但总感觉无论我用多么感人肺腑的话语，都无法比拟这一天在学校度过的令我感动的、难忘的点点滴滴!

充实的一天

今天是忙碌的，整整一个上午，都是在不断的听写英语、督促同学们学习中度过的，下课了，我就立刻找那些英语单词背不好的孩子听写，课上，便马不停蹄的批作业，并且时刻盯着宇，让她学习。我是喜欢和她一起学习的，感觉她是有那种学习的热情的，可以给我以感染力，又让我充满动力与激情。她也是听话的，只是稍微不仔细了一些，慢慢改正，应该是可以的。

让优秀坚持下去

中午批数学卷时，我分配给了几名学生，他们都欣然接受了，只有艾不想批，我对她说：你不是答应老师可以做值日班长吗?为什么又不要做了?优秀是需要坚持的，今天优秀，明天就不了那算不上优秀。艾似乎觉得有道理，便争着要批卷了。在我看来，艾是个心灵手巧、善于观察的小姑娘，只是有时候不太注意自己是在一个集体中，总做一些特立独行的事情，但这些并不影响她成为一个优秀的人，如果她能把这份优秀一直坚持下去，那真的是不可估量啊!

肩负一份责任

今天，我考了很多同学英语单词，并且让她们的同桌考他们第二轮、第三轮，直到全对为止，其中就有一直很愿意帮助同学的卓，她真是个温文尔雅的好姑娘。还有一个就是让我刮目相看的达，我一直认为学习好的同学只会学习，不会帮助别人，但这一观点，将从今天起转变。我让达督促他的同桌然背单词，达尽职尽责，不仅监督然学习，还一字一句的教他。中午，我见然回到教室开始学习，虽说是在补之前欠的债，但我还是很欣喜的，不多久，达也回来了，是回来帮助然的，着实让我很受感动。在达身上，我看到了一份对同学无私奉献的爱和他那弱小的肩上支起的坚定的责任!相比之下，辛，你要加油了!今天就你没有考呀，至少该对自己负责吧，期待可以看到你主动来找我听写哦!

把机会让给他

下午上了一节令人震撼的语文公开课，不仅因为老师和同学们精彩的配合，更是因为那个多次发言的禹(同学们说他外刚内萌，感觉很有趣)。在这节课快要下课时，老师再次点到了他，但他并没有急于回答，而是说：老师，我把这个机会让给我的同桌，因为他也总举手，可是一次机会也没有得到。顿时，听课的老师们被禹的回答说笑了，包括安老师也包括我，这个笑绝对不是嘲笑，也不是搞笑，而是一种欣慰的笑，一种赞赏的笑。在大家都急于表现自己的时候，禹的这种友情、这种谦让，让所有人为他竖起大拇指，又怎能不令我感动呢?

I have rested for a week. I began to feel bored. So I went out with my

friends. They are my best friends in the middle school. We didn’t go to

someplace special. We just saw the other. We had lunch together. While we were

having lunch, we were still talking about the new school and new friends. Yes! A

year later, we have grown riper. And we learned much more things and got new

life. We haven’t enough time to play, to waste and to lose the way. We only have

two years. Two years to go, we will get the real life which belongs to us.

After school yesterday afternoon, my brother and mother, with the speed of Shenzhou VI went straight to Changan by bus to go to the Sanshui station.

The uncle was very angry, and he snatched the game money in the hands of Hao to play with me and my brother. Haozheng stood by crying.

In order to soothe Hao Zheng, the aunt invited us to eat Japanese cuisine together. Hao was just calm down.

20xx年1月15日

It was the third day of our winter holiday. Today, there are many business in my mothers company. So my mother told me to help my uncle who is the manager of my mothers company. I sat in my mothers office and help her answer the telephone. While I was free, I was writing my homework. Although I also have a lot of time to do my homework, I still do it. Because in my mothers office, I had nothing to do. If I did nothing, I was wasting my time and my life. I cant do the foolish thing. We should take good use of our time.

这是我们的冬季假期的第三天。今天,有许多企业在我母亲的企业。因此,我的母亲告诉我,帮助我的叔叔谁是我母亲的企业的经理。我坐在母亲的办公室,帮她接电话。虽然我是自由的,我正在写我的家庭作业。虽然我也有很多时间做功课,我仍然这样做。因为在我母亲的办公室,我没有任何关系。如果我没做什么,我是在浪费我的时间和我的生命。我不能做的傻事。我们应该利用我们的时间充分利用。

Today I found time was a cruel thing. Whatever man is, time always goes on.It won‘t stay to wait for somebody. You can‘t use anything to exchange time. Time is also a fair thing. Although you have a lot of money or you enjoy high reputation, time won‘t leave them more. Today I found I hadn‘t enough time. Although I have 50-day holiday, but I found I had a lot of things to do.

I had a lot of homework to do and I had something necessary to do.

on.It wont stay to wait for somebody. You cant use anything to exchange time.

昨天整天穿高跟鞋跑来跑去，傍晚到住处时头痛得像要裂开一样，都是高跟鞋惹的祸。今天我终于放弃了我坚持“足足”两天的“职业淑女装”计划，改穿帆布鞋了。虽然看起来有点“不敬业”但至少我精神状态好多了，晚饭也算是能咽得下。

今天下午ZUO老师在四班上了节班会课，课上左老师总结一周班级的基本情况。听起来都是些琐碎的小事情，类似宿舍有没有倒垃圾，学生校服是否合格，课堂表现等等，不过班主任要关注的也是这样的方方面面。ZUO老师用聊天的方式很细心地分析这些，不仅仅吸引学生的注意，连我也不自觉被吸引进去了。我整节课都在一边盯着ZUO老师看，一边瞧瞧学生们的反应。真不知道到我接手的时候能不能也有这样的效果，希望有吧。接手前的这个星期有点像被判了“死缓”，哈哈……

跟这么一个好老师其实压力真的好大，不过呢，天将降大任于斯人也，难得有这样的机会。别的同学还在埋怨没课上，锻炼少呢。按道理，我现在天时，地利，人和都有了，应该珍惜。

xx-9-20 微凉 晴

会议

转眼就来到了实习的第四天，这两天天气开始转凉了，班上好几个感冒了，来请病假的一堆。看来要提醒学生注意身体。

听了三天的课，还参加了几个会议，收获真的很大。下午的会议是全校班主任会议，在会议上我知道了一些关于学校班级管理在实践方面的知识，比单纯在书本上获取的理论强多了。作为实习生能参加这种全校性会议是件很幸运的事，充分体现了HT中校领导的宽容。

所以尽管今天回去很晚，但还是很开心。

回到家，志哥和志嫂在等我吃饭，很感动。实习周到啦，为了提高自己的英语水平，把知识和实践结合，在学校的帮助安排下，我来到了“瑞博英语培训学校”，开始了我的执教之路。

瑞博外语学校是经教育行政主管机关批准成立的专业外语培训机构，我的实习地点是凤凰城大梨树分校。这里是风景秀美的旅游区，这里有我的汗水和欢乐。

我的实践内容是教培训班的小学生初一英语课程。

虽然我是英语专业的学生，但毕竟没有过教学经验。因此，7月3日，我到“瑞博”的第二天就开始接受相关培训。邓校长真是个认真负责的人，她为我安排了一位专门的指导教师——王老师。在王老师的耐心指导下，我学会了如何写备课笔记，如何活跃课堂气氛，如何用简单的英语句子和同学们进行课堂交流等等。特别是她和另几名教师教我的小游戏，使我在课堂上很好地调动了学生的积极性，令我受益匪浅！

经过了一段时间的备课听课和试讲，我终于走上了讲台，开始教课啦！

我角的这本教材的特点是单词量大。所以在教课的过程中，我遇到的个困难是如何让孩子们对枯燥的英语单词产生兴趣。关于这点，我在培训时准备的游戏帮了我不少忙。我发现学生最喜欢的游戏要数Simon says 和Snowman.因为这两个游戏学生可以全班参与，有赏有罚，十分热闹。这也是学校里其他老师使用得最多的游戏。

不过，为了使我的课堂有自己的特色，我也想出了几个其它调动学习单词的兴趣提高学习效率的方法。其中最有效的是领读单词这招。每个人都有上进心，都不想被别人比下去，这一点在孩子们身上体现得最明显。我正是利用了这点，在教单词时，给孩子们充足的时间自己练习读熟它们，并让以不同的形式他们轮流领读，读得标准的同学还可以获得当小老师的机会去较其他人，实力相对弱的同学不仅要接受惩罚，还要成为“别人”的学生，这样学生为了可以当小老师，为了得到大家的掌声，一节课下来，几乎每个同学都可以把单词读熟读好。 一个问题解决了，第二个问题马上出现了。经过几次考试，孩子们贪玩的本性实在令我头痛。全班十二名学生，回家能认认真真背单词的人不超过五个，怎么办？在得到几位老师的意见后，结合我班的情况，我终于想出了几个办法！

“瑞博”向来有积分制度，学生根据自己的上课情况和考试成绩会得到不同的积分，不同积分会有不同礼物兑换。本来每位同学每节课最多只能得四分，但在和几位老师商量后，我决定我们班每节课的积分以考试成绩为主，单词全对的同学，根据人数可以得到五分十分二十分不等的奖励。这个新方法一实行，就取得了特别明显的效果。不过，总有几个贪玩的“小懒虫”，从不在意分数。没办法，我只好用其他的方法使他们学习。找出这几个孩子回家后不学习的原因。第二招，为他们量身定计划。举个例子具体点说。我们班有两个关系很好的女孩子，她俩共同的特点就是爱上英语课，不爱背单词。别看她俩关系好，在学习上可是暗暗叫劲儿。每次上课前她俩都会各自找机会悄悄问我要对方的作业看，比一比谁写得好，评语好。我就是抓住了她俩这个心里，为她俩制定了一套学习方案。有一段时间，我会给她俩布置背单词，读课文，背句子等不同的任务，并在第二次上课前单独考她们，再根据她们的考试情况在课堂得分外多加些分数。开始时，她们不理解我的做法，没想到一段

时间后她们不仅提高了成绩，还主动要求我给她们布置课外任务，比一比谁学得好，这点让我很高兴。当然，其他的同学也会有不同方式的加分的机会。

我遇到的第三个问题就是如何和家长沟通。和家长沟通的内容有两个方面：一是学生的安全，二是学生的学习。家长和老师最担心的事不是孩子的学习成绩上不来，而是孩子的安全得不到保障。所以我们一旦发现有孩子没有按时来上课，就会立即通知家长，了解情况。在课间也会有专门的老师保障他们的安全。而当孩子学习上出现问题或取得进步时，我们做老师的也要及时和家长取得联系，让他们能够及时掌握孩子的情况。每次和家长交流前我都要仔仔细细地想一遍一会儿和他们说什么如何说，尽量做到落落大方，表现得成熟些，免得让家长对自己对学校不放心。

近一个月的实践经历告诉我，要想把课讲好，在课前必须做好充分的准备。熟记每个知识点，熟悉每篇课文，校准每个单词的发音，精心安排课堂的每个环节...... 不过，要想使学生从心底里喜欢上你的课，喜欢上你这个老师，我们要做的就不只这些啦。所以我一有时间就和他们聊天，做游戏，了解他们的性格喜好在学校的学习成绩甚至是家庭状况，和他们建立宝贵的友谊。看到我的学生真的把我当成了自己的朋友，有什么好吃的会拿来和我分享，有好玩的游戏会叫上我一起玩儿，甚至会把喜欢的玩具送给我，我觉得自己成了世界上最幸福的人！ 教师是个力气活，劳力，劳脑，又劳心。教师也是良心活，教得好坏多少，得用心中的那杆秤来衡量。当教师还得讲策略，要想教好学生，要想学生信服自己，必须和他们交友，不断琢磨学生的心理，才能做到。

有过同样经历的几位同学曾告诉我，她们当了十几天的教师就开始厌倦这份工作了。可是，我觉得我的教师瘾还没过够呢！虽然在这个过程中我累过烦过也抱怨过，甚至有几次我做梦梦到的都是那帮让人省不了心的孩子。可我觉得为他们付出值！ 每当站在讲台上,被一双双纯净的眼睛聚精会神地望着时,作为一名教师的价值感和成就感就油然而生了。

我真心地感谢学校给了我这次实践的机会。在这个过程中，我得到了很多，也进步了很多。能够将自己在学校所学的知识运用到实践是我最大的收获!当然，在教学过程中我还有好多地方做的不够好，多希望以后还会有这样的机会，让我弥补一下心中的遗憾。借住在志哥志嫂家已经很麻烦他们了，现在还要等晚归的我吃饭。晚饭是吃火锅，好开心。志嫂饭后还把没吃完的食材拿来下粥，她手艺很好煮得特香。

好像实习以来我碰到的事情都是些好事情，其他同学一定很羡慕这么多好人在我身边守护。LUCKY！正式接任班主任首要的工作，便是在最短的时间内认识整个班的学生，以及阅读他们的周记。

周记，可能更多地带有作业的性质，然而，在仔细阅读每一个学生的周记后，我发现确实很多人写出了他们的心声，写出了他们的思考。

九十后，是目前被谈论最多的一代，也许是他们的风格与社会的传统相悖，也许是他们的叛逆心理比较严重。我们不难看到整个社会对他们的关注和担忧。很多人说九十后“少年不识愁滋味，为赋新词强说愁”，而我通过他们的周记中看到的是另外一面，他们真的感到孤单，很多源于父母甚至社会对他们的不理解。

现在很多言论都批评他们肤浅，我觉得写这些评论的人根本就没有深入地去理解他们（当

然我也是）。他们有他们的深刻，九十后思考问题的方式和方向可能跟我们以前认为的常理格格不入，因此他们总被迫使着前进。为什么我们总要用自以为是对的东西去规范他们，而不去理解他们的方式？其实是因为我们比他们还懦弱，不敢随意地去更改已经规定了的东西。

他们并不是只会玩的一代，并不是懒散、无知、无所忧虑的一代。相反，他们思考的很多，他们的忧虑很多。在他们的周记中，这些语言真实地反映了他们的心思：“高中的课程让人窒息，早知道就去读中职了，反正路是已定了的……”“四中真是变态，条条框框那么多，而且都是鸡毛蒜皮的规定……”“我以前总以为没有人关注我的，我是被遗忘的。想不到今天居然有人注意了我……”“普通班的注定是低人一等的，给人当垫脚石。尖子班的就算矮子也变高了，然后把你踩矮。可恶的是他们打篮球，可以犯规犯到裁判看不见，他们的素质根本没有他们成绩高……”“刚上高中，第一周的两次测试惨不忍睹，以后要加油努力了，不能这样下去……”……

一边看他们的周记一边思考。虽然他们是九十后，语言里带着诙谐稚嫩与不成熟，但是他们并不是没有想法，并不是不深刻，就像读者里一个九十后写的：你们无法理解的深刻……说实话，我在四中的感觉就是——急迫。记得当时我读高中的时候根本就没有这种被压着的感觉，气氛是轻松自由的，照样有很多人进了重点大学，而今这样的情形，也没见他们的重点率高了多少。每天九节的课程量，一节四十分钟，加上早读，放学一大堆的作业，这班九十后每天的一举一动基本上都被框得“有条不紊”。他们每天就按着这样的行程机械地运作着，真的没有一点空间，一点自由发展的时间。除了课程外，学校的条条框框真的是多不胜数，规定小到学生的指甲长度，头发的发型，等等。流水线作业本来是工业生产的一个伟大进步，如果运用于人，运用于教育，是怎样——我们把人当罐头生产了！

知道为什么雄鹰能飞那么高吗？因为在它们破壳而出的时候，展现在它们面前的是一片最广阔的天空。没有谁规定它们应该怎么飞，没有谁规定它们不能去搏击闪电乌云…… 九十后，他们的潜力是巨大的。举个例子，特别是九十后中的男孩子，他们基本上都是游戏高手，而这正是几乎为所有家长跟大多数老师鄙视的。在小小的一个方寸大小的游戏机上，几乎在一两秒内，要同时操控几个按键，画面的切换飞快，眼睛要关注对手的反应，还要做出反击，这些都是在同时进行的。试问，这样的反应速度和判断力，没有很高的智商，能做到吗？家长老师所鄙夷的，是他们没有从另一个角度去看待问题。为什么九十后的潜力会被

忽视呢？问题是我们的引导方式错了，我们的观念错了，我们抛不掉对好学生的评判标准。

九十后这个群体，需要我们更多的正确关注，需要我们走进他们的世界，理解他们。英语教师实习周记 这一周，从学生转型到老师，我感触极深，获益匪浅。面对第一次上台授课，既期待也有少许紧张。为了上好第一堂课，紧紧一个版面的内容，却奋身备课到凌晨一点！第一堂英语课，大获好评。第二堂信息技术课，班主任石老师微笑的对我竖起大拇指。

Spring Festival ,known as the Chinese New Year, is the most important holiday in China. From late January to early February,Chinese people are busy preparing for the New Year. They clean their houses ,have their hair cut,and buy new clothes. Jiaozi or dumpling is most popular. To those who live far away from their home,this festival is also a framily reunion occasion.

And they often go back home to celebrate the festival with their family. The first day of the new year is the time when people visit their friends adn wish each other good luck in the new year.

二月十四日 星期日 雨

春节，即中国人的新年，是中国最重要的节日。从一月末到二月初人们忙着为新年做准备。他们打扫房屋、理发和买新衣服。饺子是最受欢迎的。对那些远离家乡的人们，春节是一个合家团聚的时刻。他们经常回家和家人欢度春节。新年第一天人们访友并互祝新年好运。

The Lantern Festival falls on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month， usually in February or March in the Gregorian calendar。 As early as the Western Han Dynasty （206 BC—AD 25）， it had become a festival with great significance。

This days important activity is watching lanterns。 Throughout the Han Dynasty （206 BC—AD 220）， Buddhism flourished in China。 One emperor heard that Buddhist monks would watch sarira， or remains from the cremation of Buddhas body， and light lanterns to worship Buddha on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month。

So he ordered to light lanterns in the imperial palace and temples to show respect to Buddha on this day。 Later， the Buddhist rite developed into a grand festival among common people and its influence expanded from the Central Plains to the whole of China。

Till today， the lantern festival is still held each year around the country。 Lanterns of various shapes and sizes are hung in the streets， attracting countless visitors。 Children will hold self—made or bought lanterns to stroll with on the streets， extremely excited。 "Guessing lantern riddles"is an essential part of the Festival。

Lantern owners write riddles on a piece of paper and post them on the lanterns。 If visitors have solutions to the riddles， they can pull the paper out and go to the lantern owners to check their answer。 If they are right， they will get a little gift。

The activity emerged during peoples enjoyment of lanterns in the Song Dynasty （960—1279）。 As riddle guessing is interesting and full of wisdom， it has become popular among all social strata。

People will eat yuanxiao， or rice dumplings， on this day， so it is also called the "Yuanxiao Festival。"Yuanxiao also has another name， tangyuan。 It is small dumpling balls made of glutinous rice flour with rose petals， sesame， bean paste， jujube paste， walnut meat， dried fruit， sugar and edible oil as filling。

Tangyuan can be boiled， fried or steamed。 It tastes sweet and delicious。 What’s more， tangyuan in Chinese has a similar pronunciation with "tuanyuan”， meaning reunion。 So people eat them to denote union， harmony and happiness for the family。 joozone。com

In the daytime of the Festival， performances such as a dragon lantern dance， a lion dance， a land boat dance， a yangge dance， walking on stilts and beating drums while dancing will be staged。 On the night， except for magnificent lanterns， fireworks form a beautiful scene。

Most families spare some fireworks from the Spring Festival and let them off in the Lantern Festival。 Some local governments will even organize a fireworks party。

On the night when the first full moon enters the New Year， people become really intoxicated by the imposing fireworks and bright moon in the sky。

This days, my family go to Qinhuangdao(秦皇岛) have a visit .In there ,we use

camera take a lot of photos. We see many Qing Dynasty (清朝) lifestyle .The most

famous view is Jiaoshan Greatwall(角山长城). It is too high and hard to go up .But

we get it .We spend three happy days .We seat down the trolley (缆车)to fly in the

air like a bird .The days which I spent in there is different from my hometown

.I think I will visit much more views if i work hard .It。

My New Deskmate

My new deskmate is a boy of sixteen. His name is Zhang Gao. He is 1.8

meters tall. His strongly-built body and sun-tanned skin make him look like a

sportsman. He has two big dark eyes under a pair of thick eyebows. It seems that

they are always smiling at you. Compared with my yellow hair, his hair is black

and thick. He speaks a little bit fast but very clearly. However, he likes to

gesture from time to time while hes talking. He has a dream of becoming a famous

actor one day. I believe his dream will come true because of his handsome face

and well-developed figure.

我的新同桌是一个16岁的男孩。他叫张高，身高一米八。结实的身材、晒黑的皮肤使他看起来像运动员。他浓浓的眉毛下有一双又黑又大的眼睛，似乎总是在对人微笑。与我的黄头发相比，他有一头浓密的黑发。他的语速有点快，但相当清楚，只是他说话时爱打手势。他的理想是当一名演员，我想他英俊的长相和匀称的身材定会让他好梦成真。

I was so busy in the previous winter holiday for I am going to take the

university entrance exam in July this year. Everyday, I buried myself in

studying. I had to review each required subject and do lots of exercises.

Besides, because I did bad in mathematics and physics, I had to do much more

exercises than other courses, which made me discouraged. I spent more than ten

hours a day in studying. When I was tired, I watched TV or listened to music for

a little while. But It was a big pity that I couldnt go to the see cinema. In

addition, I had to refuse all the invitations of friends and relatives. I only

called them or sent messages in the New Year’s Eve. I desperately hoped that

there is no exam but I know it’s impossible. The only thing I can do is to study

hard to get good scores and can be admitted to Tsinghua University.

This day is too busy .We only have one day to Spring Festival .My father

and I stick these Spring Festival scrolls(春联) on the wall . The work is to tired

but we are happy . I can cut tape to my father and he stick .In this way ,we

finish these tired task .After this ,we clean the room .1st ,I can clean the

floor .The wall is owned to my father .And my mother clean the window .We

cleaned our room at last .Oh。
