We are students now. But we both have ourselves dreams. For example.I want to be a reporter. Because if I became a reporter. I can make a lot of money and. I also can meet lots of interesting people.So I should study Chinese well.My friend-Ann wants to be a singer. Because she thinks it;s a really interesting job.And she wants to be a flight attendant.

Parents are the people who care about us the most. But for a lot children,

they think it is necessary for parents to give them everything. As they grow up,

they start to realize their responsibility and feel grateful to their parents. I

was very naughty before. One day, I hanged out to play with my friends very

late, but I havent told my parents, because I thought they would not care. But

when I went home, I found my parents and uncle were sitting together, and they

looked very upset. When my parents saw me, they were angry to ask me why I went

home so late. I felt unhappy and shouted at them. Then my uncle told me that my

parents worried about me so much, and they had searched me for the whole street.

At this moment, I felt so touched, and felt their love.

With the rapid development and the overpopulated in this society, more and

more people rushing into the big cities for personal development. So, the

housing problems in the big cities is becoming more and more serious.

In my humble opinion, there are several ways to slove this problems. First

of all, we can expend the cities, and build more apartment in the country. The

fresh air and clean water will attract young people to live there. What’ more,

the housing price will be lower than the big cities. Second, the government

should control the price of the house. If the house is too expensive, many

people may not be able to afford a house on their own. The government should

build some cheap apartment for the poor, the young people. Last but not least,

we should have more skyscapes, the land is limited, we need more space to

support people to have a good living condition.

A good living condition is the key to social stability. if our country have

enough houses, the pressure can be relieved to some degree. And our people can

live a better environment.

now, people are getting richer and richer. let"s think, what will the life

be like in the future?

in the future, we won"t have to change many clothes every day. we will wear

a kind of special clothes. we can be warm when we feel cold and be cool when we

feel hot. they will have many beautiful colours. we can change the colour we

like anytime.

in the future, there are more and more kinds of food we can choose. they

will be much more delicious than now. they will not be expensive. we can buy

them with little money. isn"t it wonderful?

in the future, all of us will live in beautiful houses. it can move

anywhere. when we want to change the place we live, it will take us quickly

without any trouble.

in the future, we won"t have to go to work by bus or bike. everyone will

have a small but useful plane, we can go anywhere we like by plane. how great

will be !

in the future, maybe each family will have a robot. our mother won"t be

busy at housework, they won"t be tired. when we feel bad, we won"t have to go to

hospital to see a doctor. the teachers won"t need to go to school to work

because they can teach students through world wide web.

……

life in the future will be much more wonderful than now, i think it will

come true.

As a Senior Three student, time seems much limited. As a result, more and

more students try to study from early morning till late afternoon, even during

the ten-minute break. In my opinion, to take a ten-minute break between classes

is definitely necessary. Otherwise we will feel tired both physically and

mentally. During the ten-minute break, we do something to get rid of tiredness.

What we need is to have a real rest, instead of getting more tired. So doing

nothing tiring in that period is really good for us. My ten-minute break is

always pleasing. Sometimes I do some simple exercises. Sometimes I have a free

chat with my classmates or just take a walk outside. When the next class begins,

I feel fresh again.

In the future,I want to be a lawyer.

Because I think a lawyer can help people with their knowledge.

So.what can I do?

First I will try my best to learn law,then I will read lots of law books,next I will pratice law every day,finally I will go to LAW SCHOOL improve my law.

I am sure my dream will come true in the future!

Some days ago,it was the Chinese Spring Festival.So I went to shopping with

my parents.the old saying said that to go to outside to have a walk in the new

year,you could get the good luck within this whole year.it always a happy

festival in our country,and the folk in the departments were very happiness. it

was very crowded.we went to the downtown to buy some presents for our

relatives,of course,i got a big present from my parents.it was a thing that i

wanted to get for a long time.you know,it was the festival,so all the

departments were saled their products in a low price. its cheap for us.all the

things you saw were perfect.i was very happy that i could go to shopping with my

parents. because i could get the present,and the most important reason is i

could go with my parents.

Echo,my favourite teacher,is a pretty and slim lady.One of the most

important reason that I like her is that she is very sincere.When she talks to

others,she always has a smile on her face.I think Echo is a natural teacher

beacuse she has a lot of good methods on teaching.She is not only quite

friendly, but also humorous.Her class is full of fun that you have never feel

bored.To improve our grades,she usually gives us some advices about how to learn

English well.Whats more,she sacrificed her own time to help every student,no

thought of gain.Sometimes,she nearly has no time to have lunch.When I ask her

questions,she must spare no effort to make me understand,with patience and

careness.I have never seen such a good teacher as her before.A good teacher can

point out the direction and give you endless strength when you get into

trouble.Im lucky enough to have such a good teacher present to my life. Echo

has a great inflence on me.Im thankful her help very much.

From Monday until Friday most people are busy working or studying, but in

the evenings and on weekends they are free to relax and enjoy themselves. Some

watch television or go to the movies; others participate in sports. It depends

on individual interests. There are many different ways to spend our spare

time.

Almost everyone has some kind of hobby. It may be anything from collecting

stamps to making model airplanes. Some hobbies are worth a lot of money; others

are valuable only to their owners.

I know a man who has a coin collection worth several thousand yuan. A short

time ago he bought a rare ten-yuan piece worth 250 yuan. He was very happy about

the purchase and thought the price was reasonable. On the other hand, my son

collects match boxes. He has almost 600 of them but I doubt if they are worth

any money. However, to my son they are extremely valuable. Nothing makes him

happier than to find a new match-box for his collection.

Thats what a hobby means, I guess. It is something we like to do in our

spare time simply for the fun of it. The value in money is not important, but

the pleasure it gives us is.

This afternoon, my parents and I went to Huad Shan with their friends.Recently, they have developed a new feature such as Gu Keng coffee, yard coffee shop, and B&B.This time, we went to a place that has natural trees, flowers around us. On the side of the stone road, had a long river and we could hear the water voice. It was very comfortable. The most I like it because there were not many people so that we could have a quiet condition.In addition, adults took noodles, fruits, and teas to get more interest. People in there were so friendly; they could lend us the desk, the chair, and everything we need.Now, Huad Shan is not only a place for hiking but also a tourism scenic spot. We can go there with our family or friends on holiday. It is certainly can relax ourselves.There are full of busy and nervous feeling in our usual life. So we took advantage of free time to go for relax. It is really a big enjoyment

[a trip to Huad Shann高二年级英语日记

Halloween is an observance celebrated on the night of October 31,most notably by children dressing in costumes and going door-to-door collecting candy.It is celebrated in much of the Western world,though most common in the United States,Most other Western countries have embraced Halloween as a part of American pop culture in the late 20th century.

So,although some cults may have adopted Halloween as their favorite "holiday," the day itself did not grow out of evil practices.It grew out of the rituals of Celts celebrating a new year,and out of Medieval prayer rituals of Europeans.And today,even many churches have Halloween parties or pumpkin carving events for the kids.After all,the day itself is only as evil as one cares to make it.

万圣节是纪念庆祝10月31日晚,尤其是在服饰打扮儿童和挨家挨户上门收集糖果.这是在庆祝西方世界很多,不过大多数在美国,大多数其他西方国家接受,作为美国流行文化在20世纪后期的一部分万圣节.

因此,尽管有些邪教可能采用为他们最喜爱的“节日万圣节,”这一天本身却没有增加邪恶的作法.它的前身是在庆祝新年凯尔特人仪式,并指出欧洲中世纪的祈祷仪式.今天,甚至很多教会万圣节南瓜雕刻政党或为孩子们的活动.毕竟,这一天本身是邪恶的,只是作为一个关心使然.

Our life will change greatly in the future.

In the future,every family will own at least one computer,with which we can shop online without going out.

That is really fantastic.Also,robots will be employed by every family.They can help do much of the housework.

Therefore family members will have more free time to spend time together.

In the future,kids dont need to attend school any more.

There is internet access in every family,with the help of which kids can study by themselves.

With the development of e-commerce, shopping online becomes a new way of shopping which is getting more and more popular. Many citizens are likely to shop through internet nowadays.

随着电子商务的发展，网上购物成为一种新的购物方式，越来越受欢迎。许多市民可能现在通过网上商店。

Generally speaking, shopping online offers lots of advantages with its convenience the most prominent. There are many commodities on the internet where you can search whatever you want. Besides, you just click the mouse can you get all information you want, so that you don’t have to go to the shop personally. In addtition, the commodities on the Internet is usually cheaper than the stores which can save much money.

一般来说，网上购物提供了方便，最突出的优点。网络上有很多的商品，在那里你可以搜索你想要的任何东西。此外，你只需点击一下鼠标就可以得到你想要的所有信息，所以你不必亲自去商店。另外，在互联网上的商品比能节省多少钱一般商店便宜。

However, everything has two sides. You can not see the products or check their qualities and some of the sellers on the Internet is not so honest. And, for those who enjoys shopping around different stores, shopping online perhaps will make them boring.

然而，任何事物都有两面性。你不能看到产品或检查他们的品质和互联网上的一些卖家不诚实。并且，对于那些喜欢在不同的商店购物，网上购物可能会让他们无聊。

In my opinion, shopping online has more advantages than disadvantages, and with the improvement of e-commerce, there will be more people to shop on the Internet.

在我看来，网上购物的利大于弊，而且随着电子商务的发展，将会有更多的人在网上购物。

据网上报道显示，人大代表提出高考取消英文科目，赞同人数高达百分之八十二，这一话题也成为当今许多同学的热议，很多人认为：中国人学好国语就行，为何要学习外国的语言。

我认为英语成为我们学生的学习主科有其道理性和针对性的针对学生的发展未来。从对国家发展来看英语占全世界的国家讲的人数虽不是最多的，但却是分布的最广乏于国家的，包括很多的发达国家，中国学习这门语言对走出世界，同其他国家交流沟通发挥了很大的作用，如果取消这门沟通语言之门便少了日后中国发挥国际地位中的作用，众所周知，中国早已加入世界贸易组织，若贸然作出取消英语科目的决定，其进一步从长远地发展眼光看便可想而知。

作为学生，许多人的其他科目优势都能被英语这门科目好多了，但无论如何学好英语对学生的将来只有利大于弊，如果其他都学好只有英语差，对将来是不利的，要想睁大眼睛看世界，就得努力使自己插上翅膀飞出中国面对多样化，缤纷多彩的世界，到一个发达的地区闯出一片天，再把自己的国家发展好。

义务教育阶段时期在小学时便把语文，数学英语，这三门科目定为了主要学习科目，其实英语只要从小学基础打起，便觉得好学，多听，多说，脑海里会自然形成像语文那样会听，会说的一种能力。

To be successful, students learn many knowledge so as to master as more

skills as possible. Some believe that the key to realize our dreams is to work

hard and others treat chance in the first place. While today is the information

world, the one who masters the all-sided source will have more chances to be

successful. In my opinion, the most important skill is the social skill, because

we need to make connection with others, we are not doing business with

ourselves, so it is in need of having relationship with others. The good social

skill can help us attract attention easily and impress the future partner. If we

are bad in communicating, how can we let others know our advantages and trust

us. So promoting ourselves is the first job, from now on, don’t be shy.

Learning a foreign language is an enriching undertaking. To make the most of your experience, you may need to develop some specialized strategies. Here are some principles to keep in mind.

1. Language is more than a set of grammar rules. Although structural accuracy is an important component of communication, you must also learn how to communicate in a manner that is appropriate to the situation. Likewise, in addition to building a large vocabulary, you will also need to learn ways of paraphrasing so that you will be able to communicate effectively when you don’t know an expression or it has slipped your mind. Body language and gestures are also important communicative strategies.

2. Active language use is far more important than talking about language. The ability to recite the rules of English grammar does not guarantee that you will actually be able to communicate in the language. Spend your time communicating in the language, creating messages, obtaining information, listening for details and so on.

3. Don’t be afraid of making errors. Errors are a natural part of the language learning process and no one can avoid them. Do not let fear of making an error prevent you from communicating. Even if your language ability is not perfect, your message may be understood. Of course, accurate use of language is an appropriate goal of language study.

4. Language learning is a long-time process. Therefore you must have realistic expectations of your performance after one semester, one year, or several years of language learning. Advanced proficiency is often best achieved after long period of practice and residence in a country where the target language is spoken.

5. Be an active language learner. Study models, look for patterns, and make informed guesses, study idioms. If you do not entirely understand a passage, do not ask for a translation immediately. Make use of the language you already know or words that may be related to other words you know. Although language learning can be hard work, your efforts will be rewarded with a deeper understanding of yourself and the global village of which you are a citizen.

学习一门外语是一个丰富的任务。充分利用你的经验,你可能需要开发一些专门的策略。这里有一些原则要牢记。

1。语言不仅仅是一套语法规则。虽然结构精度是通信的一个重要组成部分,你还必须学会如何沟通的方式是适当的。同样,在构建大型词汇表之外,您还需要学习的方法套用,这样你将能够有效沟通当你不知道一个表达式或溜你的头脑。肢体语言和手势也很重要的交际策略。

2。积极的语言使用比谈论语言更为重要。背诵英语语法规则的能力并不能保证你会可以用语言交流。花费你的时间在语言交流,创建信息,获取信息,听细节等等。

3。不要害怕犯错误。错误是语言学习过程的一部分,没有人能避免他们。不要让害怕出错阻止你交流。即使你的语言能力并不完美,你的信息可能会被理解。当然,准确的使用语言是语言学习的一个适当的目标。

4。语言学习是一个长期的过程。因此你必须有现实的期望的性能在一个学期之后,一年或几年的语言学习。先进水平通常是最好的实现经过长期的实践和居住在中国,目标语言是口头的。

5。是一个积极的语言学习者。研究模型,寻找规律,作出明智的猜测,研究习语。如果你不完全理解一段,不要求立即翻译。利用语言的你已经知道或者单词,可能与其他单词你知道的。虽然语言学习是艰苦的工作,你的付出会得到回报,更深入地理解自己和地球村的公民。

My Experience to Eat Buffet

Today, after school, my friends asked me to have dinner with them, I felt so happy and went the restaurant with them. Then I found they wanted to eat buffet, I was so happy, because I always wanted to have buffet, I could eat a lot of food. As we paid the money more than we usually spent, so all of us wanted to eat as more as possible, even though we were full enough, we still tried to eat. I would go the wash room many times, so that I could continue to eat. I found eating the buffet should be a happy thing for me, but now it seemed to be a kind of torture, I always told myself to eat more than I could bear, my stomach hurt. The experience to eat buffet lets me realize that I should enjoy the food instead of eat more than I could bear.

今天，下课后，我的邀请我和他们一起吃晚饭，我感到很开心，和他们一起去馆子。我发现朋友们想要吃自助餐，我很开心，因为我总是想要吃自助餐，我能吃很多食物。因为我们比平常多花了钱，所以我们都想要尽可能的多吃，即使我们足够的吃饱，仍然想要去吃。我会上很多次洗手间，这样我就能继续去吃。我发现吃自助餐对我来说应该是一件开心的事，但是却有点像是折磨，我总是告诉自己多吃，超过了承受的范围，胃都受伤了。吃自助餐的经历让我意识到我应该享受食物，而不是吃到超过自己的承受范围。

你活的随意些，你就只能活得平凡些。你活得辉煌些，你就只能活得痛苦些你要活得长久些，你就只能简单些。

——王国真

《逍遥游》周大鹏被不知名的小鸟嘲笑说:“我腾跃而上，不过是数刃而下，翱翔于蓬蒿之间，此亦飞之至也，而彼且悉释也？”其实小鸟又怎能知道大鹏的宏高志远呢？能真正畅游于天地，又岂是遨游于蓬蒿之间可能比的？当然也有俗语言曰，“宁做鸡头亦不做凤尾。”此乃小人之辩也，小智又怎能及得上大智？

若想要活得辉煌些，就只能活得痛苦些。你若想辉煌，只能奋发图强，拼搏向上，这一过程当然是你成功路上所体验的痛苦过程。因为没有人是一帆风顺的，只有经得起大风大浪，船只才能安全的带你走向成功的彼岸。

如果一个人想要祈求上苍给它一个一帆风顺的生活，那么他就真的只能平庸一生了。就像那个祈求上帝不要给他的稻谷风雨的农夫一样，最后收获的只是一堆干扁的谷子，没有米粒。只因他们每天都安安静静的成长，他们不用努力结出稻米，每天会农夫给他们灌水，有杂草抢走营养了，农夫会把杂草去除掉，所以他们不会有烦恼，只会每天享受阳光的洗礼，静静的毫无作为。

当然，还有成千上万个类似故事告诉我们，这些不经历风雨哪能出现彩虹的故事。但是如果我们能够仔细思考，必定就会知道只有努力，才会拼搏，才能成就一个精彩的未来。我们都熟知的人物——爱迪生，他的一生创造了多少传奇啊！为了研究电灯，他失败了成千上万次，甚至有一次他为了寻找合适的灯丝，先试用金属中寻找。后来发现那些东西成本很高，并且容易断裂，可是他没有放弃，又从植物中开始寻找，经历了1000多次的失败之后，他找到了合适的材料，并且最终成功的发明出了会亮很久的灯泡，给人类带来了光明，让人们不再只畏惧黑暗，开启了电气时代。

我深刻的记住一句话:如果有天我们在茫茫人海中庸碌一生，那是因为我们没有努力活得更丰盛。所以，为了有一个美好的未来，为了能够耀眼的活着，那么就只能剩下拼搏了，只有拼搏才会有未来，才会有精彩的人生。

Our school is far away from the downtown. As a result, it is a good place

for students to study. We won’t be disturbed by the crowded people and the

noise. For me, I like the scenery in the campus, trees are around, especially

when I look out of the window in the break time. I will look at the scenery that

is far away, sometimes I can see birds flying. There is a road that circles the

mountain, which looks like a snake. When cars are driving in the road, I will be

wondering who is coming, maybe our parents or just some strangers. The scenery

outside the window provides me another world. I like to think about a lot of

questions and sometimes my thought will go around the mountain. This is my

little world.

The air we breathe is so freely available that we take it for granted. Yet without it we could not survive more than a few minutes. For the most part, the same air is available to everyone, and everyone needs it. Some people use the air to sustain them while they sit around and feel sorry for themselves. Others breathe in the air and use the energy it provides to make a magnificent life for themselves.

Opportunity is the same way. It is everywhere. Opportunity is so freely available that we take it for granted. Yet opportunity alone is not enough to create success. Opportunity must be seized and acted upon in order to have value. So many people are so anxious to "get in" on a "ground floor opportunity", as if the opportunity will do all the work. Thats impossible.

Just as you need air to breathe, you need opportunity to succeed. It takes more than just breathing in the fresh air of opportunity, however. You must make use of that opportunity. Thats not up to the opportunity. Thats up to you. It doesnt matter what "floor" the opportunity is on. What matters is what you do with it.
