In China, there are four seasons in a year, spring, summer, autumn and

winter. Summer is hot and winter is cold. Spring and autumn are comfortable.

Spring lasts from March to May. Summers goes from June to August. From September

to November is autumn. At last is winter, from December to February. Among the

four seasons in a year, I like winter most.

Everyone has his favorite teacher ,so do I. My favourite teacher is Miss

Wei, our English teacher. We felt English very difficult when we began to study

English. Miss Wei had a good idea to solve the problem. One day, Miss Wei came

into the classroom with some fruits, such as apples,bananas,and oranges. She

said: “Today we are going to learn the names of the fruits. You can eat the

fruits if you can tell me their names in English . ”All the students listened

carefully and studied hard . Someone even stood up to answer questions. Class

was over ,and the fruits were all eaten. From then on ,I am more and more

interested in English, and I want to say from my heart: “ Thank you, Miss

Wei!”

Yesterday was Teachers Day. It was a great day for all the teachers and also a happy time for us students. In the morning.we went to school early and put a bunch of flowers on our class masters desk to give him a big surprise. Some of us stood at the school gate to say hello to every teacher when they entered the school. In the afternoon, we held a party. We sang and danced with the teachers. They said the best reward for the teachers was to see that we were making progress.

This is our school library . It s openfrom 8:30 to 11:30 in the morning

and from 1:30 to 4:30 in the afternoon . It s not verylarge . It has only

three assistants and about two thousand books . The assistants are friendly and

the books are interesting . So we often come here after class . From thelibrary

, you can borrow two books at a time , and keep them for two weeks . In its

reading room , there are tables and chairs . There you can do your homework or

read the magazines .

Some think we should try to help strangers. Helping others is a virtue，and

helping others is helping ourselves.We may come across some trouble and need

others help some day.If everyone isnt willing to help us just because we are

strangers to them，its hard to imagine what our world will be like.However，some

are afraid that helping others can sometimes bring us trouble.Sometimes we are

just misunderstood and even have to pay the cost of kindness.In my opinion，we

should try our best to help others when they are in need of help，but we should

also protect ourselves from getting into trouble.If everyone tries a little

kindness，our world will be full of love.

There is an old Chinese saying: Top students come from strict teachers.

Perhaps affected by this saying for a long time, we believe it right. However,

as time flies, lots of things have changed. Therefore, I am eager to discuss

what relation is the best between teachers and students.A teacher can treat a

student in two ways .One is strict, and the other is friendly. Most teachers

prefer the first way.To start with, we certainly have to admit that strictness

is very effective, especially to the naughty pupils.

As pupils we aren’t able to control ourselves well or fix our attention on

one thing for a long time. We do most things because they are interesting or we

feel like doing. We are always looking out of the window in class. Sometimes, we

get to play games and forget our homework. On this occasion, strictness is a

must. It not only forces us to do the right thing, but also helps us develop a

good learning habit, which is of great importance during our whole life .In

other words, it is the first step to success.Still, everything has two sides.

Its weak points are very obvious. You see, there’re top students in a class,

where average students make up the majority. Then teachers’ orders or

suggestions are for the majority, not for top students. However, top students

always have their own study plans and prefer special homework, so orders usually

won’t take great effect on them.

Maybe you have thought out that teachers can give orders only to the

majority and set some freedom to top students. However, it’s impossible .For a

whole class, teachers couldn’t give order to part of the class, for the majority

would question why they needn’t do such work, but we need? It would be probable

that they think teachers treat them not equally, and will not obey teachers’

orders any more. This is a difficulty for teachers.It also has another

disadvantage——the communication problem .Since teachers are strict, we never

tell teachers our personal affairs or secrets. Mostly we just tell them to our

friends, but as students too, they couldn’t help to solve our problem, such as

puppy love, communication problems or study problems .Not being solved

completely, they always disturb us, influencing our daily life and study. I’m

sure that you think that making friends with teachers can solve the problem, and

you are eager to do so as well. But if we do so, new problems will come out .You

see, an adult couldnt control himself well at times, let alone us students.

However if teachers are our friends, I doubt whether their orders will take

effect any more .You see, have we ever treated our friends’ orders as orders? We

think they’re only jokes. This is another difficulty for teachers.Additionally,

our parents have the same problem. Yes, we need to be friends, but not complete

friends. We need to keep a certain distance, making us communicate well and

willing to take your orders. I remember a story.One day, a lady had her rest

room decorated. And a skilled worker was bricking up the wall. Seeing large

cracks between the bricks, she questioned why. The worker told her after this

summer, the bricks would become bigger, and those cracks would disappear.That is

not only decoration, but also communication. The principle is the same.

In the winter vacation life I have seen such a story to share with you:

Boone smile day, boone to visit a client, but unfortunately, they didnt

reach an agreement. Boone very upset, come back later told the story to the

manager. Tell the manager listened patiently boone, silent for a moment and

said, "you might as well go again, but should adjust their own state, always

remember to smile, use your smile to impress each other, so that he can see your

sincerity."

Boone to try to do it, he behaved himself very optimistic, very sincere,

has been permeated with a smile on his face. Results each other have also been

infected by boone, they happily signed agreement.

Boone have been married for 18 years, every morning to go to work. Busy

life let he forgot his beloved wife, he seldom smile to his wife. Boone decided

to give it a try and see what difference smile will bring their marriage.

The next morning, boone comb my hair looked in the mirror is smiling at

frail, the scowl on his face. When he sat down to eat breakfast, he greeted Mrs.

With a smile. She amazed, very excited. In this two weeks, boone felt more

happiness than in the past two years.

Boone often sincerely compliment, now stop talking about their needs and

annoyance. He tried to see things from other peoples opinions. All this really

changed his life, he gained more joy and friendship.

This story gave me the message, do anything to adjust their own state of

mind, always remember to use the smile, set each other, play with your smile so

that he can see your sincerity. A smile can bring warmth, friendship, can bring

happiness. So in the work, life will smile to face, in a good state of mind to

treat people and things around.

爱国心是通过实践而养成的一种眷恋故乡的感情。

Patriotism is a kind of nostalgic feeling formed through practice.

岁末年初，正当人们准备欢度春节之际，新型冠状病毒感染的肺炎疫情悄然而来，一场阻击病毒疫情的战斗也随之打响。在疫情爆发和防控危险时刻，总有一些我们不知道的无名英雄，他们以“逆行”的姿态为我们筑起一道坚固的“防护墙”，他们在打一场没有硝烟的疫情战，是一条永无退路并且必胜阻击战。他们，就是这个时代的最美逆行者。

Novel coronavirus infection is coming quietly at the beginning of the year,

just as people are ready to celebrate the Spring Festival. A battle against the

virus has also started. At the time of outbreak and prevention and control,

there are always some unknown heroes who build a solid "protective wall" for us

in a "retrograde" attitude. They are fighting an epidemic war without smoke of

gunpowder, which is a never-ending and inevitable resistance war. They are the

most beautiful rebels of this era.

抗击疫情，他是我们的“定海神针”

To fight against the epidemic, he is our "Dinghaishenzhen needle"

1月18日，钟南山院士从广州赶往武汉。1月19日从武汉又赶往北京，凌晨两点才睡觉。1月20日全国电视电话会议新闻发布会，媒体直播连线又是忙到深夜。实际上，钟南山院士一直活跃在科学前线，在来武汉之前，他也没有退休、没有安逸。他曾说：“医院是战场，作为战士，我们不冲上去谁上去?”他是无双国士，更是定海神针!根本就没有什么岁月静好，只是他和他的战友们冒着牺牲的危险替我们负重前行。

On January 18, academician Zhong Nanshan rushed to Wuhan from Guangzhou.

From Wuhan to Beijing on January 19, I went to bed at two oclock in the

morning. On January 20, at the national teleconference press conference, the

live media connection was busy late into the night. In fact, academician Zhong

Nanshan has been active in the front line of science. Before he came to Wuhan,

he didnt retire and have no comfort. He once said: "the hospital is the

battlefield, as soldiers, who dont we rush to?" he is the unparalleled

national, but also the sea god needle! There is no time to be quiet, but he and

his comrades risked the risk of sacrifice to carry forward for us.

抗击疫情，她是我们的“铁娘子”

To fight the epidemic, she is our "Iron Lady"

严丽，她是急诊科医护团队眼里的“铁娘子”。武汉发现新型肺炎后病人骤增，急诊科下夜班后，严丽还要去支援发热门诊，白天黑夜连轴转。”1月20日，严丽带着丈夫和孩子来到机场。临近登机时她却改变主意，决定重回医院，与同事们一起继续抗击新型肺炎，“去机场的路上心就慌慌的，回到医院内心才平静。”孩子不理解，抱着我哭，说我从来就没有兑现过承诺。严丽说，“不是觉得自己高尚，只觉得一线医护人员紧缺，自己一辈子没当过逃兵。这一次也不能离开。”哪有什么白衣天使，只不过是一群孩子换了身衣服，学着前辈的样子和死神抢人。

Yan Li, she is the "Iron Lady" in the eyes of the emergency department

medical team. After the discovery of new pneumonia in Wuhan, the number of

patients increased dramatically. After the night shift in the emergency

department, Yan Li had to go to the fever clinic to support the fever clinic.

She worked day and night. " On January 20, Yan Li arrived at the airport with

her husband and children. She changed her mind and decided to go back to the

hospital to fight against the new pneumonia with her colleagues The child didnt

understand, hugged me and cried, saying that I had never fulfilled my promise.

Yan Li said, "I dont think Im noble. I just feel that there is a shortage of

front-line medical staff. I havent been a deserter in my life. I cant leave

this time. " There is no angel in white, but a group of children changed their

clothes and learned how to rob people with death.

“苟利国家生死以，岂因祸福避趋之”。防疫战场上医护人员那一张张印着红指印的请战书;新闻里笑容腼腆的女护士朴素的语言：“只要穿上白大褂就不害怕了......”武汉医生与家人隔离，白发老母亲隔门叮嘱时的眼泪;除夕夜，各地医护人员紧急集结赴武汉和家人告别时的拥抱;大年三十返岗生产口罩的工人;《爱是桥梁》，春晚的节目为武汉而改变......

"For the sake of the countrys life and death, do you avoid it because of

misfortunes and blessings?". On the battlefield of epidemic prevention, the

doctors letter of invitation printed with red fingers; the plain language of

the female nurse with a shy smile in the news: "as long as you put on the white

coat, you will not be afraid..." Wuhan doctors are separated from their

families, and the tears of the old mother with white hair when she is told by

the door; on New Years Eve, medical staff from all over the world gather to

Wuhan to say goodbye to their families; those who return to work on the 30th of

the new year to produce masks Workers; love is a bridge, the program of Spring

Festival Gala changes for Wuhan

每当看到电视上那些一身白色“戎装”，战斗在防疫第一线的白衣战士,我就充满虔敬,他们视疫情为敌情,把医院当战场,在没有硝烟的战斗中舍生忘死,以大无畏的精神和钢铁般的意志,谱写了一曲曲光辉壮丽的人生赞歌。

Every time I see those white soldiers in military uniform fighting in the

front line of epidemic prevention on TV, I am full of piety. They regard the

epidemic situation as the enemy, regard the hospital as the battlefield, and

forget to die in the fight without gunpowder smoke. With the spirit of

fearlessness and the will of steel, they compose a glorious and magnificent hymn

of life.

哪有什么岁月静好，不过是有人替你负重前行。只要万众一心，就没有翻不过去的山;只要众志成城，就没有过不去的坎。我们要坚定信心从自身做起。长大之后我们替你们继续前行!武汉加油!

There is no time to be quiet, but someone is carrying the weight for you.

As long as all people are united, there will be no mountains that cannot be

turned over; as long as all people are united, there will be no barriers that

cannot be crossed. We need to be confident and start with ourselves. After

growing up, we will continue to move forward for you! Come on, Wuhan!

请相信待春暖花开之时，我们都可以走上街头，不用口罩，繁华与共，共享春光灿烂!

Please believe that when spring comes, we can all go to the streets,

without masks, and share the bright spring!

The Chinese people, in their drinking of tea, place much significance on

the act of savoring. Savoring tea is not only a way to discern good tea from

mediocre tea, but also how people take delight in their reverie and in

tea-drinking itself. Snatching a bit of leisure from a busy schedule, making a

kettle of strong tea, securing a serene space, and serving and drinking tea by

yourself can help banish fatigue and frustration, improve your thinking ability

and inspire you with enthusiasm. You may also imbibe it slowly in small sips to

appreciate the subtle allure of tea-drinking, until your spirits soar up and up

into a sublime aesthetic realm. Buildings, gardens, ornaments and tea sets are

the elements that form the ambience for savoring tea. A tranquil, refreshing,

comfortable and neat locale is certainly desirable for drinking tea. Chinese

gardens are well known in the world and beautiful Chinese landscapes are too

numerous to count. Teahouses tucked away in gardens and nestled beside the

natural beauty of mountains and rivers are enchanting places of repose for

people to rest and recreate themselves.China is a country with a time-honored

civilization and a land of ceremony and decorum. Whenever guests visit, it is

necessary to make and serve tea to them. Before serving tea, you may ask them

for their preferences as to what kind of tea they fancy and serve them the tea

in the most appropriate teacups. In the course of serving tea, the host should

take careful note of how much water is remaining in the cups and in the kettle.

Usually, if the tea is made in a teacup, boiling water should be added after

half of the cup has been consumed; and thus the cup is kept filled so that the

tea retains the same bouquet and remains pleasantly warm throughout the entire

course of tea-drinking. Snacks, sweets and other dishes may be served at tea

time to complement the fragrance of the tea and to allay ones hunger.

Yesterday, after a long meeting in the class, all the students had been

told about the safe issues, then the summerVacationfinally came. All of us

felt so happy and liked a free bird, rushing to home quickly. I had been looking

forward to this holiday for such a long time, I really needed to take some rest

after studying for a semester. I have made some plans for my summer vacation.

First, I wanted to spend some time to stay with my grandparents. I miss them all

the time and they always tell me to visit them when I have the time. My grandma

will cook the delicious food for me. Second, I want to read some books I like,

such as the fiction books. I don’t have much time to read fiction books because

I have to focus on my study. Summer vacation provides the time to adjust

myself.

I get up at seven oclock in the morning every day. After I brush my teeth

and wash face, I eat my breakfast. My mother makes the breakfast for me. I go to

school at 7:30 am, and come back from school at 6:00pm. Before I go to bed I

will do some homework. I usually go to sleep at 10:00pm. On the weekend, I will

go to play football with my friends, in the summer we like to go swimming. These

are my daily life.

When we are little, we are eager to grow up, so that we can break free of

parental discipline even leave them far. Since we were a little child, we have

to be governed by teachers in school and endure parent’s ramble at home. These

are our growing pains. Besides, study, friendship, sometimes campus romance may

trouble us. However, as we grow up, we gradually find that things mentioned

above are not pains at all. There are much more serious things brother us. For

example, we may be less sensitive to the simple happiness and loss them

gradually. It’s hard for us to laugh from our heart. Moreover, we are in the age

that we are eager to grow up but afraid to grow up either. The ambivalence

afflicts us a lot. However, no matter what happens in our growth, they are parts

of our lives. We must accept them actively and do not let the pains prevent us

from happiness.

I will soon become a middle school student, which means my life will come

to a new chapter. So I must do something different to make me stronger. I want

to be more independent, so I can make my own decision. As my parents always make

decisions for me, I want to tell them that I have grown up. From now on, I

should learn to take care of myself, such as washing clothes and helping my

mother with the house work. The most important thing is to finish my homework

without my parents supervision. I am so excited about my new life and I believe

that I can become a better person.

In our daily life, we can learn something from some cases. However, from my

point of view, I think that it is essential for us to know ourselves in a right

way. People who have a full awareness of the importance to improve themselves

will discover themselves continuously. Therefore, we can say that if we want to

change ourselves, we must bravely reveal ourselves.

Every coin has two sides, and we are no exception. When we experience some

situations, we will find that there are many advantages of us. Thus, we can have

a huge sense of satisfaction. We may have a little pride, because we are happy

that we can make good use of our advantages to solve more difficult problems in

the future. However, at the same time, we also can realize that there are still

some disadvantages of us. These disadvantages will bring us different

influences. I’d like to point out that people who can bravely accept and remove

their disadvantages will gain a bright future. On the contrary, people who

choose escape or ignorance their disadvantages will indulge themselves, and they

no further progress.

Don’t indulge yourself. If we indulge ourselves, we will meet more terrible

suffering in our later life. I know that when we find our weakness, we may say

that I will never do that again, and regret doing so meaningless thing. I am

such a fool. But when we meet similar situations next time, we will still tell

ourselves that it doesn’t matter that I do it again. Then we will indulge

ourselves to expand our disadvantages. It shows that some people who have no own

principle will fail to realize their promises. When we can overcome our

laziness, we will understand that solving some problems may be not so difficult.

Therefore, we should try our best to control ourselves to pursue higher

development.

There are no any excuses to indulge yourself. We should tell ourselves that

we are capable to overcome our weakness, though it needs much time. However, if

we succeed once, then we will be successful again. Last, we don’t indulge

ourselves. We will become more complete.

Everyone can take actions to improve themselves. Don’t indulge yourself. If

you succeed, you will acquire a huge wealth, and your life will become more

brilliant.

There are many different beliefs about the origin of the Lantern Festival.

But one thing for sure is that it had something to do with celebrating and

cultivating positive relationship between people, families, nature and the

higher beings they believed were responsible for bringing/returning the light

each year.

One legend tells us that it was a time to worship Taiyi, the God of Heaven

in ancient times. The belief was that the God of Heaven controlled the destiny

of the human world. He had sixteen dragons at his beck and call and he decided

when to inflict drought, storms, famine or pestilence upon human beings.

Beginning with Qinshihuang, the first emperor to unite the country, all the

emperors ordered splendid ceremonies each year. The emperor would ask Taiyi to

bring favorable weather and good health to him and his people. Emperor Wudi of

the Han Dynasty directed special attention to this event. In 104 BC, he

proclaimed it as one of the most important celebrations and the ceremony would

last throughout the night. They clean it all up in the morning.

Another legend associates the Lantern Festival with Taoism. Tianguan is the

Taoist god responsible for good fortune. His birthday falls on the 15th day of

the first lunar month. It is said that Tianguan likes all types of

entertainment, so followers prepare various kinds of activities during which

they pray for good fortune.

Yet another common legend dealing with the origins of the Lantern Festival

speaks of a beautiful bird that flew down to earth from heaven, which was hunted

and killed by some villagers. This angered the Jade Emperor in Heaven because

the bird was his favorite one. Therefore, he planned a storm of fire to destroy

the village on the 15th lunar day. The Jade Emperors daughter heard of this

plan, and warned the villagers of her father’s plan to destroy their village.

The village was in turmoil because nobody knew how should they escape their

imminent destruction.

However, a wise man from another village suggested that every family should

hang red lanterns around their houses, set up bonfires on the streets, and

explode firecrackers on the 14th, 15th, and 16th lunar days. This would give the

village the appearance of being on fire to the Jade Emperor. On the 15th lunar

day, troops sent down from heaven whose mission was to destroy the village saw

that the village was already ablaze, and returned to heaven to report to the

Jade Emperor. Satisfied, the Jade Emperor decided not to burn down the village.

From that day on, people celebrate the anniversary on the 15th lunar day every

year by carrying red lanterns on the streets and exploding firecrackers and

fireworks.

There are many stories on how this festival was created. One other story is

about a maid. In the Han Dynasty, Mr. Eastern was a favorite advisor of the

emperor. One winter day, he went to the garden and heard a little girl crying

and getting ready to jump into a well to commit suicide. Mr. Eastern stopped her

and asked why. She said she was a maid in the emperors palace and her name was

Yuan-Xiao.

She never had the chance to meet her family after she started worked at the

palace. She missed them so much every 12th lunar month. If she couldnt have the

chance to show her filial piety in this life, she would rather die. Mr. Eastern

promised her to find a way so she could reunion with her family. Mr. Eastern

left the palace and set up a fortune-telling stall on the street and disguised

himself as a fortuneteller. Because of his reputation, many people asked for

their fortunes.

But every one got the same prediction - a severe fire accident on the 15th

lunar day. The rumor spread quickly. Everyone was worried about the future and

asked Mr. Eastern for help. Mr. Eastern said, "On the 13th lunar day, the God of

Fire will send a fairy lady in red to burn down the city. If you see a lady in

red wearing green pants riding a black horse on that day, you should ask for her

mercy." On that day, Yuan-Xiao pretended to be the red fairy lady. When people

asked for her help, she said, "Im the messenger of the God of Fire and came to

check on the city and Im going to set up fire on 15th. This is an order from

Jade Emperor. He will watch from the heavens.

I will give you a copy of the imperial decree from the God of Fire. You

should go to ask your emperor to find a way out." After she left, people went to

the palace to show the emperor the decree which reads "The capital city is in

trouble. Fire burns on the palace, and fire from Heaven burns all night long on

the 15th." The emperor of Han Dynasty was very shocked. He called and asked Mr.

Eastern for advice. After pondering for a while, Mr. Eastern said, "I heard that

the God of Fire likes to eat Tang-Yuan (Sweet dumpling). Does Yuan-Xiao often

cook Tang-Yuan for you? On the 15th lunar day, let Yuan-Xiao make Tang-Yuan.

Your Majesty will take charge of the worshipping ceremony and you will give

an order to every house to prepare Tang-Yuan to worship the God of Fire at the

same time. Also, deliver another order to ask every house in the city to hang

red lantern and explode fire crackers. Lastly, everyone in the palace and people

outside the city should carry their lanterns on the street to watch the lantern

decoration and fireworks. If everything goes this way, the Jade Emperor would be

deceived.

Then everyone can avoid the fire accident." The emperor happily followed

the plan. Lanterns were everywhere in the capital city on the night of the 15th

lunar day. People were walking on the street. Fire crackers kept making lots of

noise. It looked like the entire city was on fire. Yuan-Xiaos parents went into

the palace to watch the lantern decorations, and Yuan-Xiao made a big lantern

and wrote her name on the lantern. They happily reunited together after her

parents called her name. Everybody was safe during the night. The emperor of Han

Dynasty had a new order that people should do the same thing every year. Since

Yuan-Xiao cooked the best Tan-Yuan, people called the day Yuan-Xiao

Festival.

Young people were chaperoned in the streets in hopes of finding love.

Matchmakers acted busily in hopes of pairing couples. The brightest lanterns

were symbolic of good luck and hope. As time has passed, the festival no longer

has such implications.

Those who do not carry lanterns often enjoy watching informal lantern

parades. In addition to eating tangyuan (simplified Chinese: 汤圆; traditional

Chinese: 湯圓; pinyin: tāngyuán), another popular activity at this festival is

guessing lantern riddles (which became part of the festival during the Tang

Dynasty), which often contain messages of good fortune, family reunion, abundant

harvest, prosperity and love.

Recently, I have seen an impressive film –Precious, which tells the growing

experiences about a pretty fat black girl, Precious Jones, a girl living in the

Harlem. The film reveals the poor and miserable life in the Harlem, but at the

same time, it encourages people to take a positive and optimistic attitude to

face it, no matter how difficult it is.

Precious is so undereducated that she can not read and write formally.

What’s worse, she is usually knocked around by her irascible mother. Worst of

all, she is sexually assaulted by her stepfather and has two children before the

age of seventeen. Owing to the situation she gets involved, she has to leave

school and is introduced to alternative school. After waging many struggles and

overcoming many difficulties, she finds the goals of life again with the help of

her teacher and classmates.
