“春节”是我们中华民族的传统佳节。每到这个时候，家家户户都要聚在一起吃团圆饭。大街上张灯结彩，热闹非凡，家家户户贴着“倒福”，对联。老老少少，男男女女都穿上节日盛装，脸上个个都带着笑容，走亲串邻去拜年，一片详和的景象。 大家见面第一句话都是恭喜恭喜。

Good afternoon, teachers.

I am very glad to be here for this interview. First let me introduce myself. My name is abc, 25 years old. I come from Weifang, a beautiful city of Shandong Province. I graduated from Commercial College in July, 2001 and major in finance. Then, I was a teacher in abc, When I was a senior school student, I am interested in thought and began to read a certain classic work of Marxism, especially I finished reading “the florilegium of Mao ZeDong”. From then on, I have dabbled in more and more theoretical works and accumulated great interests in theory study, especially in Marxism.

I have a dream, a dream of my study. I wish devote my whole life and energy into the development of the Marxism. If I have the opportunity to study in abc University, I’ll dabble in as much as document about the specialty as possible. If it is possible, I want to get the primary accomplishment in my major, at least, a stable basis.

Personally, for today’s China, the first task to the development of Marxism is a process of construction. That’s to say, we should understand Marxism mostly from the aspect of construction and development of social society. Only when our socialistic country has a more rapid and balance development than the capitalistic, we can enhance the attractiveness and persuasion of Marxism eventually.

the mid-autumn festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month, usually in october in gregorian calendar.

每年农历八月十五日，是传统的中秋佳节。这时是一年秋季的中期，所以被称为中秋。

the festival has a long history. in ancient china, emperors followed the rite of offering sacrifices to the sun in spring and to the moon in autumn. historical books of the zhou dynasty had had the word "mid-autumn". later aristocrats and literary figures helped expand the ceremony to common people. they enjoyed the full, bright moon on that day, worshipped it and expressed their thoughts and feelings under it. by the tang dynasty (618-907), the mid-autumn festival had been fixed, which became even grander in the song dynasty (960-1279). in the ming (1368-1644) and qing (1644-1911) dynasties, it grew to be a major festival of china.

中秋节有悠久的历史，和其它传统节日一样，也是慢慢发展形成的，古代帝王有春天祭日，秋天祭月的礼制，早在《周礼》一书中，已有“中秋”一词的记载。后来贵族和文人学士也仿效起来，在中秋时节，对着天上又亮又圆一轮皓月，观赏祭拜，寄托情怀，这种习俗就这样传到民间，形成一个传统的活动，一直到了唐代，这种祭月的风俗更为人们重视，中秋节才成为固定的节日，《唐书·太宗记》记载有“八月十五中秋节”，这个节日盛行于宋朝，至明清时，已与元旦齐名，成为我国的主要节日之一。

folklore about the origin of the festival go like this: in remote antiquity, there were ten suns rising in the sky, which scorched all crops and drove people into dire poverty. a hero named hou yi was much worried about this, he ascended to the top of the kunlun mountain and, directing his superhuman strength to full extent, drew his extraordinary bow and shot down the nine superfluous suns one after another. he also ordered the last sun to rise and set according to time. for this reason, he was respected and loved by the people and lots of people of ideals and integrity came to him to learn martial arts from him. a person named peng meng lurked in them.

相传，远古时候天上有十日同时出现，晒得庄稼枯死，民不聊生，一个名叫后羿的英雄，力大无穷，他同情受苦的百姓，登上昆仑山顶，运足神力，拉开神弓，一气射下九个多太阳，并严令最后一个太阳按时起落，为民造福。后羿因此受到百姓的尊敬和爱戴，不少志士慕名前来投师学艺，心术不正的蓬蒙也混了进来。

春节是中国最盛大的传统节日。每到春节，我们都要回老家和爷爷奶奶、外公外婆一起过年。

春节前要做许多准备工作。例如：贴对联、打扫卫生、买各种各样的年货等。

转眼间就到了大年三十。一大早我就跟爷爷奶奶、爸爸妈妈拜年，得到了许多压岁钱，我可开心了。奶奶准备了一桌的菜，有春卷、鱼肉、羊肉等美味佳肴，把我的小肚子吃的圆滚滚的。晚上大家一起看春节晚会，很开心。

正月初一家家户户互相拜年，不过县城里不可以放鞭炮，不是很热闹。

正月初二，我们给外公外婆和舅舅拜年，我又得到了几个大红包。外婆家可以放鞭炮，小姨买了许多炮竹和烟花，我们小孩子一起玩。大家围在一起，点燃烟花，“噗”的一声，烟火冲天。璀璨夺目，好看极了！欢笑声、嬉戏声、鞭炮声，响成一片。我感受到了节日的快乐。

春节真美好，大人小孩都喜欢。

Good afternoon, teachers! I`m very happy to introduce myself here. I`m Scott. My Chinese name is SunZijing. I`m 13. I`m from Class1 Grade 6 of TongPu No.2 Primary School. I have many hobbies, such as playing ping-pong, playing badminton, listening to music, reading magazines and so on. My favourite food is chicken. It`s tasty and yummy. So I`m very strong. I`m a naughty boy. I always play tricks. And I just like staying in my room and reading books. But I have a dream, I want to be a car-designer. Because I`m a car fan.This is me. Please remember SunZijing! Thank you very much!

Hello: My name is **,I like sports very much.I am good at swimming.I also like riging a bike.Because my home is far from school,I ride to school everyday.I admire my English teacher very much!

A different people have different ideas. I think the most important thing for me is having a good relationship with my family members and my friends. My family has always been very closeknit?and my friend sand I spend a lot of time together. Without that I would be much less happy than I am. I’m afraid I’m a poor talker. I’m not comfortable talking with the people whom I have just met for the first time. That is not very good for business?so I have been studying public speaking.I don’t like regular work. I am interested in different projects with new opport unities and new challenge?but I can do regular work if the company needs me to do so.

I always approach things very enthusiastically. When I beg in something?I don’t like to leave it halfdone. I can’t concentrate on something new until the first thing is finished.

In china if you invite people for meal, the person who invited other people would pay for the meal but it’s not the way in Western country. In western country people will think you only invited me but it’s not your responsibility to pay for me.

I can afford it. They won’t be happy if you pay for them. People in China would always put dishes into customer’s plate to show their hospitality, but they will think it’s not healthy because your chopsticks have been used by you. In western country like America not England, people will always give tips to waiter after they finished meal in a restaurant.

If you don’t they will not be happy because tips are one of their major income. In china this only happen in some top restaurants and hotels in large international cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. Western people will also think you are rude if you make sound during the meal. Western people do not hold their bowl up even when they have a bowl of soup.

Also take part in many volunteer service activities. Like low-carbon transportation activity in 2009, Wuhu. We used the theme “Greener Traffic, Cleaner Air” to encourage car owners to take public transportation more often and help ease road congestion and contribute to better air quality. Now, I’m very glad I did these which not only prove my social ability, like communication, organization, teamwork. But most important, it teaches me dedication and thankful to society. Also I have a work experience in a surface science application company and several internship experiences, which mentioned in my resume. So I’m not introduced here.

Today, I’m coming here for the career International sales from zhijiang silica chemicals. It has good staff development platform Project, corporate culture, and strong Research Team.

[关于化学自我介绍

商业和文化的接触增多会导致一个国家特征的丧失：

影响文化：文化不是静态的，而是动态的（not static, but dynamic)；—种文化的改变主要是由 于社会环境(social environment)发生了变化。比如说，人们的饮食习惯发生了改变，这是学习 夕卜界文化的结果(Peoples eating habits have been changed as the result of learned behaviour.)； 快餐文化源自美国，有些人将此作为财富的象征(symbols of wealth),从而喜欢快餐；另外， 本地的饮食文化会改变，以适应外国人的口味（suit the tastes of visitors);

影响生活方式：进口商品的增多，对外国产品的喜好（preference for imports);人们更加熟悉 他国的文化，而忘记自身的特点（sense of identity)，社会的团结也有所损害（an erosion of social solidarity);服装、饮食、娱乐等等都被两化了 （westernized),比如说，西装现在是流行 的男性服装(the suit is the most popular outfit for men)；

欠发达国家在技术革新中起到的作用甚微(play a small role in the technological revolution),所 以需要"出卖"自己国家的主权或者利益来获得国际的帮助（concede sovereignty and interests to other countries for aid)；贫富差距加大(widening gap between the richest and poorest parts of the world)；

接受西方文化的人们成为一个国家新的统治阶级（new ruling class);人们摒弃传统的观念 (renounce traditionally-held beliefs),觉得传统观念是过时的和低人一等的（outdated and inferior);主流文化会取代老式的和各种各样的文化（A dominant culture takes over diverse cultures.),人们不再尊重传统文化（lose respect older cultures),而传统观念最终成为历史 {consigned to history)。

商业和文化的接触增多会加强一个国家的特征：

外来文化让人们意识到自己文化的特点，从而更加注意维持这种文化； 一种特殊文化会引起世界的关注，人们会更加注意保护。

One of the most conspicuous trends in the 21st century is a closer connection between countries, in both economic and cultural aspects. There is a widespread worry that this will lead to the gradual demise of countries’ identities. This issue should be viewed and analyzed from multiple perspectives.

When a country tends to develop a closer relationship with the rest of the world, it does not necessarily give up its culture. Culture is not a disgrace to but an asset of a country. An indigenous culture can distinguish one country from others, attracting foreign visitors and yielding high income. As most tourists travel abroad for learning different cultures and sampling different ways of life, such as Beijing opera in China, Japanese tea culture and Thai temples, many countries have responded with protecting and preserving their cultural identities, in an effort to keep themselves in the list of the most popular destinations. Increased tourism instills fresh life force into these countries, aiding theconservation of their features.

While tourism provides a driving force for cultural conversation, some components of a culture, such as traditions^ customs or taboos might die out over time. It seems that in some countries, the locals have become more accustomed to exotic cultures. It reflects the combined effects of the invasion of foreign cultures, either through media or through direct business interaction. For example, two decades ago, sex was a

taboo subject in China and most Chinese people felt embarrassed to talk openly about it. Over time the Western culture has permeated into the Chinese lifestyle, and the Chinese people have broken many of their time-honoured traditions. It occurs in the rest of the world as well.

As outlined above, increased interaction between countries in the domains of business and culture can either strengthen or undermine the identities of countries involved, To date there is no definite answer to this question.

1. conspicuous-noticeable=prominent=striking:显箸的，突出的

2. connection=linkage= relation=relationship:关系，联系

3. demise=disappearance=vanishing=fading:消失，死亡

现代民间习惯上把过春节又叫做过年。其实，年和春节的起源是很不相同的。

那么“年”究竟是怎么样来的呢？民间主要有两种说法：一种说的是，古代，有一种叫做“年”的凶猛怪兽，每到腊月三十，便窜村挨户，觅食人肉，残害生灵。有一个腊月三十晚上，“年”到了一个村庄，适逢两个牧童在比赛牛鞭子。“年”忽闻半空中响起了啪啪的鞭声，吓得望风而逃。它窜到另一个村庄，又迎头望到了一家门口晒着件大红衣裳，它不知其为何物，吓得赶紧掉头逃跑。后来它又来到了一个村庄，朝一户人家门里一瞧，只见里面灯火辉煌，刺得它头昏眼花，只好又夹着尾巴溜了。人们由此摸准了“年”有怕响，怕红，怕光的弱点，便想到许多抵御它的方法，于是逐渐演化成今天过年的风俗。

另一种说法是，我国古代的字书把“年”字放禾部，以示风调雨顺，五谷丰登。由于谷禾一般都是一年一熟。所“年”便被引申为岁名了。

我国古代民间虽然早已有过年的风俗，但那时并不叫做春节。因为那时所说的春节，指的是二十四节气中的“立春”。

南北朝则把春节泛指为整个春季。据说，把农历新年正式定名为春节，是辛亥革命后的事。由于那时要改用阳历，为了区分农、阳两节，所以只好将农历正月初一改名为“春节”。

On the thirty night, we ate the dinner on New Years Eve, I cant wait to turn on the TV to see the Spring Festival evening party, and finally to eight points, the Spring Festival evening party started, there are a lot of wonderful programs inside! Have a beautiful dance, melodious songs, funny comedy and humor of crosstalk.

I love the performance of Louis Liu... Magic, magic! Because one of the magic tricks he performed was that he passed a coin straight through a piece of solid glass, and his hands were worn out of the glass.

Its amazing! I was so stunned that I could hardly believe my eyes. Unwittingly, the party was over. The wonderful show made us have an unforgettable New Years Eve.

集市上可真热闹!瞧!各种各样的人：年过半百的老爷爷、老奶奶，小伙子、中年妇女，脸上洋溢着笑容，。各种各样的商品，农副产品、蔬菜类、水产类、肉类…井井有条、琳琅满目。听!卖货的小贩吆喝声不断，顾客讨价还价的声音也不停息，好不热闹。这便是人们购年货的场景了!

早在市场门口边看到，人头攒动，人声喧哗。首先便看到“蔬菜区”三个大字，羞红了脸的西红柿，浑身长刺，头顶小黄帽的黄瓜，穿着紫纱裙的茄子，身上的露珠让它们显得十分耀眼。小商小贩面带微笑，热情地走向顾客们介绍自己的蔬菜是多么的好，个个都讲的滔滔不绝。

接下来便是肉类食品了，生的、熟的，在铺面前支起台面来，猪肉，都割成一条一条的，有的还是一扇的，上面红色的灯罩，白天明晃晃的，照在肉上显得很新鲜，卖肉的小贩拎着刀，对每位顾客笑脸相迎，十分友好，希望自己的生意兴隆，大声吆喝着。

再看那水产区，盆里的鱼虾活蹦乱跳，溅出许多水花，一旁促销员的大喇叭一遍又一遍放着录音。妈妈带着我去买鲤鱼红烧鲤鱼，到最后可是我家的年夜饭的拿手主菜，寓意“年年有余”(鱼)看那只鲤鱼刚才还在水里活蹦乱跳，一个网兜将其兜起，接下来迎接它的，便也只有锅与调味品了!

年味真是越来越浓了!超市里，菜场上，市场中，“买买买”的节奏愈加强烈，人流车流川流不息，这也便是过年买年货的乐趣吧!

"I now declare the rules of the game: a man hides a few things, and a few others go and hide them," said the town. We drew a lot and finally decided to hide three coke bottle caps from our cousin. The cousin pushed us out of the room and hid things by herself... After a while, the cousin came out with a smile and said, "hide it, you cant find it!" We swarmed in, and I thought: the easiest place to hide is probably the most secluded place. So, I will seriously every corner to find it again, did not, in the look at the kid sister, drill under the bed, their tails on the outside, groping hands in it, no, she just want to stand up, "alas!" The little sister cried, and she cried, and she stood up under the bed and hit the bed.

So she stopped the game. Ah! One less opponent, but the cousin is also difficult to deal with, see her in the closet to each piece of clothing to turn over, wow! Not yet! But where exactly? I glanced around, and then I noticed a shiny object behind the curtain.

I pulled the curtain aside. Coke bottle caps! I was happy to jump three feet high, my cousin saw, a look of unconvinced. But shes picking up speed. Look for it here. I made haste, and under the bed and then watch out of the reach of little younger sister, and I found a coke bottle caps, my heart even more excited to get up, then I have found in a book under the last bottle. "Shout! It took me a lot of work! I sighed and said, my cousin, my cousin and my sister are all happy for me. The cousin said, "you are very observant!" I heard it, I was very happy.

[关于春节习俗的英语作文录

秦始皇陵，位于陕西省临潼县城东约五公里处，南依骊山，北临渭水。

秦始皇兵马俑博物馆，在陵园城东门外。距陵墓一公里半。大厅里陈列着许多和真人真马同样大小的陶人和陶马。说起秦俑来，还有一段传说哩。

据说，在秦以前，关中人不使用瓦盆瓦罐，当时也没有陶制器物。秦始皇二十二岁正式执政后，就下令大规模地修建他的陵墓。他察看过许多地方，最后看中了骊山。骊山风光秀丽，加上山阴产玉，山阳多金，金玉双全，正符合他的迷信思想，所以把墓地定在骊山北麓。他不仅从全国调来七十多万“刑徒”，还从山东、河南等地征发来大量民夫。修建期间，秦始皇还下诏书叫李斯提前征集数千对童男童女准备为他殉葬。李斯看了诏书，吓得目瞪口呆。他想，要征集这么多童男童女殉葬，必然会遭到百姓反对，人们一旦起来造反，秦朝江山就会垮台。但是如果不办，皇帝降罪下来，自己就活不了。想来想去，只得上书秦始皇说：“臣李斯，冒死直言，君征人殉，必引骚乱，不如陶殉，江山平安。”秦始皇见了，觉得有道理。他还想，如让活人殉葬，在阴间不听调遣，死后也不得安宁。于是改变原意，立即下旨令李斯征集全国能工巧匠，烧成规模庞大的出巡仪仗队，要求把陶人、陶马制得和真人真马一样大小。

九天过去，李斯从民夫中抽调出数百名烧制砖瓦的工匠，向他们宣读了圣旨，命令他们按期烧好陶人、陶马。

但是，抽调来的工匠谁也没做过陶人陶马，只会烧砖瓦。他们试烧多次都烧坏了，有一百多名工匠被砍了头。就在这批被杀的工匠中，有个老工匠想出个法儿，他在临死前告诉他的儿子，要他单窑分段烧制。儿子含泪埋了父亲，按照父亲生前嘱咐，单窑单俑分段烧，烧成后再组合。经过几次试烧，终于烧成了。

这个方法试验成功后，工匠们齐心协力，经过日以继夜的苦干，几千件陶人、陶马终于按期如数烧制好了，并按照李斯的要求，把陶俑排成整齐的队形。

秦始皇驾崩，秦二世胡亥继承了帝位。他怕修建工匠泄露墓中秘密，便暗地把秦始皇灵柩运入墓中，然后下令叫所有参加修。建陵墓的人，一齐到墓中看戏，并领赏赐。可怜那些流血流汗、为修建秦始皇陵墓卖过大力的工匠、民夫和刑徒，全上了秦二世的当。他们刚刚走进陵墓，便被封闭在墓中，成了殉葬品。传说只有一个人逃了出来，这人就是第一个制成陶俑的青年小伙子。原来，秦始皇陵墓里的水道是他修砌的。他见事情不妙，便钻进水道，等到天黑才逃了出来。后来他流浪关中，给人们烧制瓦盆、瓦罐和瓦瓮为生。

直到如今，这些陶制品还很受关中人们的欢迎哩。

过了一年又年,转眼间春节又要来了.

每年春节都会是全球华人最盼望的节日.在春节来临的前几天,家家户户都会贴春联,挂年画,还会包饺子做年糕.这样一来,过年的气氛就会越来越浓.到了除夕之夜,不管在外有多么忙,都会赶到家里吃团年饭,到时候全家人围坐在一起吃着香喷喷的团年饭,感受过年的气氛别提有多高兴了.吃完团年饭后,全家会聚在一起看春节联欢晚会,边看边聊,增进亲戚之间的关系.到了11:59:50全球华人都会开始倒计时10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1,0,就在那一刹那,新年降临了.这时,鞭炮声夹杂着人们的欢呼声响个不停,千万朵礼花在天空中绽放,加重了过年的"年味".

过了12点后还会有人彻夜不眠,他们是在守岁,这也是春节的传统之一.到了初一,人们就会出门四处游玩,直到初八,人们才会回到自己的工作岗位,继续工作.

虽然说过年放焰火,是中国的传统.但是焰火会造成一定的大气污染,破坏环境.所以我觉得可以制造环保鞭炮,这样一来,即可以减少大气污染,避免破坏环境,又可以保留我们中华民族特有的一种传统,使得我们在过年的时候能够更加的开心.

还有就是,过年的时候有些地方还保留着一些封建迷信的春节习俗,我觉得这是不大合理的,这种现象只有在提高人们素质之后才会消失.

希望每个人都能过一个开心快乐的春节,一年比一年红火!
