Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls. Now ,Its my turn. My name is Edgar, a high school student. I am very honored to be here to give you a speech. Also its a good chance for me to improve my English. I hope I can make a good performance today. The topic of my speech is "After studying here".

Before I came here,I can never imagine that I can learn so much knowledge about other countries, which cant be got from my books in school. Three months ago, I took my first class. Unfortunately, I felt so embarrassed, because I even cant speak any words, though I know I really love English .

After that, I took some of my tutors advice and previewed the lesson that I’ll learn. What’s more, In every class, I JUST try my best to say as much as possible. Now,I can only remember Its a really hard time. What’s worse, I had to go to my high school and went there at the same time.

After several weeks, I began to get used to the atmosphere in web .At least Im not afraid to speak in front of my tutor and foreign teachers.

During web’s period,I found I had improved a lot, both physically and mentally. For example, how to be a confident person, how to plan for my future. And the most important is that I have learnt how to communicate with others, which is a necessary skill. Nowadays studying is not the only thing that we high school students should do, there are some more important things we have ignored.

First, I am grateful for my parents. They have spent so much money for me, but never ask for anything in return. I really know how hard it is to work on such living conditions.

Now Its time to introduce my tutor sally. It was she that led me to the right studying here. It was she that helped me deal with all kinds of annoying things. Also there are some other teachers that I appreciate, especially Laura and Anita. Of course, I like to take foreign teachers classes. Anyway, thanks all of you!

I know I am young; there is a long way in my life. I have to face the difficulties and solve them by myself. But i know i must keep on my dream, I agree that If you put your mind to, you can accomplish anything.

I know im not the best ,but im the most diligent one。I hope you can remember me ,an ordinary boy.

Dear Jack,

I am writing to tell you something about the activity Clear Your Plate Campaign you referred to in your last letter.

Clear Your Plate Campaign is intended to reduce food waste and help students realize how important it is to save food. Before the campaign, many students, unaware of their wasting of food, bought much more than they could eat and even threw the leftovers without a second thought. But encouragingly, knowing the significance of saving food after the campaign, more and more students are beginning to buy a proper amount of food for their meals. Actually, all of them find this mere action not only save food but money as well. They believe this life style is also environmentally friendly.

Personally, it is of great benefit to join in the campaign and form a good habit of clearing the plate. And it is essential to start with ourselves and start from now. Don’t you think so?

I’m looking forward to having your opinions of the campaign.

Li Hua

我写信是想告诉你一些关于你上次在信中提到的活动的事情。

清除你的盘子运动的目的是减少食物浪费，并帮助学生认识到它是多么重要，节省粮食。在运动之前，许多学生，不知道他们浪费的食物，买了比他们能吃的更多，甚至扔下剩菜没有思想。但令人欣慰的是，知道节约粮食的重要性的运动后，越来越多的学生开始他们的饭买适量的食物。事实上，他们都发现这种单纯的行动不仅节约粮食，而且节约金钱。他们认为这种生活方式也是环保的。

就个人而言，加入竞选活动并养成清除盘子的好习惯是大有裨益的。我们必须从现在开始，从现在开始。你不这么认为吗?

我期待着有你的意见的运动。

The "Chong Yang Festival" is celebrated on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, and it is as such known as the Double Ninth Festival.

Origins: The festival began as early as the Warring States Period (475 - 221 BC). According to the yin/yang dichotomy that forms a basis to the Chinese world view, yin represents the elements of darkness and yang represents life and brightness. The number nine is regarded as yang. The ninth day of the ninth month is a double yang day, hence the name "Chong Yang Festival". (Chong means "repeat" in Chinese.) The ninth month also heralds the approach of winter. It is a time when the living need warm clothing, and filial Chinese sons and daughters extended this to make the festival a time for providing winter clothes for their ancestors. The Double Ninth Festival, therefore, also became an occasion to visit the graves of dead family members. Clothes made of paper would then be burnt as offerings.

Climbing mountains: On the Double Ninth Festival, people customarily climb mountains, appreciate chrysanthemum flowers, drink chrysanthemum wine, and eat double-ninth cakes. The Double Ninth Festival is also the "Old Men Festival". Old people are especially meant to improve their health by taking part in the activities on the day of the festival.

Family get-togethers: The Double Ninth Festival is also a time for family get-togethers. It is an occasion to remember one‘s ancestors, the sacrifices they made and the hardships they underwent. Often, family outings are organised during which people search to renew their appreciation of nature and to reaffirm their love and concern for family members and close friends.

我，姓李名飞阳，九岁已有余，十岁尚不足，语文老师还戏说我什么“大风起兮云飞扬”，也许是爸爸把这个“阳”字起别了的缘故吧，我丝毫没有飞起来的感觉，倒觉得自己平凡得如一粒沙子，是属于扎在草堆里找不到的那种料。

我个子不高，瘦得像一根筷子，属于营养不良型，只有声音还撑体面，唱起歌来洪亮如钟，气势非凡，颇有余音绕梁之势。妈妈常跟人说，我家阳阳吃的饭全长在声音上了。嘿嘿，反正也没有白吃，至少也算派上用场了，管它呢。还没有学到多少知识，那个高高的鼻梁上就架起了一副“望远镜”。爷爷总私心地说我是未来的“学者”，学者不学者，难道我自己还不清楚吗？只是由于长时间受眼镜的“压迫”，本来不大的眼睛变成了“一线天”，鼻梁被压得差点和嘴巴“拥抱”。这可已成为不争的事实。

我很爱讲笑话。每次讲笑话时，总会有许多铁杆听众，也算“粉丝”吧？每讲完一段笑话，他们准会笑得前俯后仰，不是笑得肚子痛，就是笑得爬在板凳上，直不起腰来，有的甚至干脆爬在地上，打起滚来。有一次，一个小伙伴听完我的笑话，一下子笑得坐在地上，正巧那儿有一滩水，等他反应过来时，裤子已经湿透了，我们又开始笑他尿裤子了。

啥？你问我有没有爱好？那还用说，可以说是五花八门、琳琅满目，嘻嘻，言重了吧。不过要说我最大的爱好嘛，还得数看书了。有这么一次，爸爸在看电视上的足球赛，我说想去奶奶家，爸爸点了点头，算是同意了。我走进厕所，本想方便一下就去的，没想到厕所里放着我最爱看的《儿童文学》，哇，多好的机会啊！真是天助我也。平时爸爸怕我眼睛近视严重，总是防着我，今天他看球赛我看书，正好两不误，于是我就直接坐在马桶上，津津有味地看了起来。去奶奶家的事早被抛到九霄云外了。也不知过了多久，听见爸爸在给奶奶打电话，好像还提到了我。后来又听到爸爸给妈妈和三姨她们一个个打电话，不知在说着什么，好像还有点急，紧接着听见爸爸下楼的声音。管那么多干啥，机不可失，时不再来，看书要紧。这可是个新的发现啊！以后看书就到这儿来，神不知鬼不觉的，没人打扰，多清静呀！

大约一小时左右吧，爸爸回来了，我不小心被文中的故事惹得笑出了声，爸爸听见了厕所里的声音，打开门一看，见我正坐在马桶上看书，当时就气得火冒三丈，骂我没有去奶奶家，害得他们到处找我，还差点儿报了警，我一看大事不妙，就赶忙向爸爸认错。“你一个大活人就没有发现娃没有出门吗？”还是妈妈好，多亏妈妈帮我解围，爸爸才算没有动手，唉，好险啊……

这就是我，一个一肚子笑话，看书成瘾的小男孩。

Table Manners

The main difference between Chinese and western eating habits is that unlike the West, where everyone has their own plate of food, in China the dishes are placed on the table and everybody shares. If you are being treated by a Chinese host, be prepared for a ton of food. Chinese are very proud of their culture of cuisine and will do their best to show their hospitality.

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.

Eating No-nos

Dont stick your chopsticks upright in the rice bowl.Instead,lay them on your dish. The reason for this is that when somebody dies,the shrine to them contains a bowl of sand or rice with two sticks of incense stuck upright in it. So if you stick your chopsticks in the rice bowl, it looks like this shrine and is equivalent to wishing death upon a person at the table!

Make sure the spout of the teapot is not facing anyone. It is impolite to set the teapot down where the spout is facing towards somebody. The spout should always be directed to where nobody is sitting, usually just outward from the table.

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.

Roman Colosseum 意大利罗马大斗兽场

The Colosseum or Flavian Amphitheater was begun by Vespasian, inaugurated by Titus in 80 A.D. and completed by Domitian. Located on marshy land between the Esquiline and Caelian Hills, it was the first permanent amphitheater to be built in Rome. Its monumental size and grandeur as well as its practical and efficient organization for producing spectacles and controlling the large crowds make it one of the great architectural monuments achieved by the ancient Romans.

The amphitheater is a vast ellipse with tiers of seating for 50,000 spectators around a central elliptical arena. Below the wooden arena floor, there was a complex set of rooms and passageways for wild beasts and other provisions for staging the spectacles. Eighty walls radiate from the arena and support vaults for passageways, stairways and the tiers of seats. At the outer edge circumferential arcades link each level and the stairways between levels.

The three tiers of arcades are faced by three-quarter columns and entablatures, Doric in the first story, Ionic in the second, and Corinthian in the third. Above them is an attic story with Corinthian pilasters and small square window openings in alternate bays. At the top brackets and sockets carry the masts from which the velarium, a canopy for shade, was suspended.

The construction utilized a careful combination of types: concrete for the foundations, travertine for the piers and arcades, tufa infill between piers for the walls of the lower two levels, and brick-faced concrete used for the upper levels and for most of the vaults.

Details

The Colosseum was designed to hold 50,000 spectators, and it had approximately eighty entrances so crowds could arrive and leave easily and quickly.

The plan is a vast ellipse, measuring externally 188 m x 156 m (615 ft x 510 ft), with the base of the building covering about 6 acres. Vaults span between eighty radial walls to support tiers of seating and for passageways and stairs.

The facade of three tiers of arches and an attic story is about 48.5 m (158 ft) tall — roughly equivalent to a 12-15 story building.
