家乡的春节气氛很浓，到处洋溢着过节的喜庆。从腊月二十三到正月十五，每天都会有很多的精彩。

腊月二十三是小年，这一天“灶王爷”要离开人间，上天向玉皇大帝禀报一家人这一年来所做所为的日子，又称"辞灶"，所以家家户户都要送“灶神”，我们还可以吃香甜可口的“祭灶糖”。同时，家家户户开始置办年货。

腊月二十八家家户户都要贴福字、窗花、对联、门神等彩色年画，以满足人们喜庆祈年的美好愿望，将宅子里里外外装点一新。从这一天开始，家家要蒸我们家乡特有的高馍馍和各式各样的花糕，有石榴花的，有小鱼的，还有蝴蝶状的。还要蒸一个又大又圆的花糕用来祭奠先祖，这个花糕可是要等到过完春节才能吃得哦!虽然大家忙里忙外，但是如果把忙碌和欢乐相比，我感觉还是欢乐更多。

除夕是最值得我们庆贺的时刻。在这个晚上大家都会回到家里与家人团圆，一起吃丰富的年夜饭，一起看精彩的春节联欢晚会，享受着团圆的乐趣。到了十二点，家家户户都会燃放烟花爆竹，迎接新的一年的到来。

从大年初一开始，大家都要到亲戚朋友家里去做客拜年。我们小孩子还能收到长辈们的压岁钱，别提有多高兴了。

正月十五又是春节里一个重要的日子，家家户户都会挂火红的灯笼、吃汤圆，寓意着我们大家团团圆圆，生活和和美美。过完了这一天，年也就过完了，人们开始正常的工作和学习。

这就是我家乡的春节，是不是多姿多彩呀?你的家乡呢?是不是也如此丰富多彩呢?

（1） How Do People in My Hometown Observe Spring Festival

（2） My College Life ---- A Summary of the First Term in Zhejiang

Gongshang University

Spring Festival in my Hometown

The Spring Festival, the most jubilant and important festival in China, is observed by most Chinese people at home and abroad. Our hometown is not an exception.

Similar with other places in china, we prepare for the festival about half a month before. With the lunar New Year approaching, the red lanterns are hung up along the main streets, making the ancient town filled with the festival atmosphere. While people clean up their houses, decorate it with traditional decorations such as Chinese knots and paper cutting. Each family pastes up Spring Festival couplets to convey their best wishes for the coming year.

On the New Year’s Eve, the whole family sits around, having a

sumptuous feast of reunion. It is worth mentioning that the food we have called maiyouzhi is unique. There is a flat piece of wheat sheet covering various vegetable and meat then rolling them up. What a delicious it is! After dinner, the family always watches the Spring Festival Gala Evening, and sets up fireworks to watch in the New Year.

On the first day of the New Year, people pay visits to the relatives and friends to send New Year’s greetings to each other and wish everything smoothly in the new year. The kids can get a lot of lucky money from the elders.

During the whole holiday, there are varied activities in the town such as lion and dragon dance, and all the citizens enjoy them very much.

People celebrate the festival until the Lantern festival. However, the wonderful memory and the joy of the Spring Festival will last long.

It’s really my honor to be part of Zhejiang Gongshang University.

My College Life

How time flies! I have been in Zhejiang Gongshang University for a semester. In retrospect, my college life is busy but colorful. Different from my senior high school’s life, the whole new life I led is much freer. I arranged my time,

becoming the master of myself.

First of all, study is still the core of my life. I major in Japanese which is both interesting and challenging. We are required to be accomplished in listening, speaking, reading, writing and translating. As a result I had to spend most of time in improving my abilities. Besides of the regular courses, I often attended the lecture and went to the library to eich my knowledge, and I do benefit from what I learnt.

As to the after school life, what I consider most meaningful is joining the YVP to serve society. I think it is the responsibility for every university student to make contribution to the community. Little as my effort is, I tried my best to help the people around us. Once the YVP organized us to sell secondhand books and raise the money to help the people indeed.

In addition, I quite enjoy the travels and the bees. Travels let me experience the sunshine, fresh air as well as the special taste of the local customs and practices. While the bees keep the friendship shining, and friends are as if family members. Both of them lit up my life.

All in all, the college life is a journey, and I have long way to go; all the memory is the most precious treasure, and I will value every moment.

I am going to have a happy holiday.I am going to Beijing on my summer holiday.I am going with my parents.We are going by plane.We are going to visit the Great Wall.I am going to eat good food.I am going to visit my aunt.That will be fun.What are you going to do on your summer holiday?Can you tell me?

I am very happy, because to the festival, we put three days off, and my birthday is coming soon, in April 21. But I also feel sad because today is the Ching Ming Festival, is awakened to the days of revolutionary martyrs.

Revolutionary martyr for our better life today, laid down their lives！ I feel very sad, so Im going to the revolutionary martyrs cemetery in East China Linyi, went to look at the revolutionary martyrs.

Spring Festival is our Chinese traditional festival, is the most important festival, of course, in many of the festivals, my favorite is the Spring Festival. Because the Spring Festival family can be together to reunion, the old welcome new, but also can sit together to watch the Spring Festival Gala.

In the evening our family had a reunion dinner together, and the family was happy. After dinner, mother washed. When it came to the live time of the Spring Festival party, the family sat around the TV and listened to Song Zuyings sound of Louis Lius two coins. This magic made me puzzled. I knew that magic had to play tricks, but I wanted to know what Louis Liu was using to make two coins penetrate the glass. And then the magic begins.

First let a person check, is a common coin, no doubt. I know the other side of the glass assistant reached. Press the coin on the glass. (in the assistant sleeve, there is a magnet coin.)

Louis Liu put the coins in his hand on the glass, and then hid the coins in his hand in his sleeve. At this time he has a hand, hand beat desktop instant, there are four, two after the rebound, carefully look at the thickness of the two times different. I didnt expect the magic to hide so many mysteries.

The family is happy to see the Spring Festival Gala together. We believe that our family will be happier and happier in the new year.

The vacation, I and my mother, father and uncle went to my hometown, beautiful yongping county, Dali prefecture. Where there is water, mountains, can be beautiful!

放假了，我和妈妈、爸爸还有叔叔去了我的老家，美丽的大理州永平县。那里有山有水，美不胜收，可漂亮了!

当我吃到那里的美食我会想到以前妈妈给我做的油粉汤。当我去美丽的回族清真寺走一走、看一看我会看到整个永平县，我很快乐!

接下来，我给大家介绍一下我的家乡有什么玩的和有什么吃的。

我的家乡其实是个很美丽的地方!那里有两个小公园，一个叫山水美居，一个叫小公园，还有一个地方是回族清真寺，那里是一座很美丽的城堡。

大理州永平县的美食有黄焖鸡、稀油粉、烧饵块、沙锅饵丝。那里的玩的和吃的还有很多，我这次说不完，下次吧!

Time slips away like water, and a happy, happy, happy summer vacation is quietly taken away. What happened during the summer vacation was like a star in the sky. Because I especially like to read books about history, but I am very unhappy because I have too many homework to read. In this summer vacation mom seemed to see my heart, and immediately to the library of our village four or five books about history of thick book to me, then I watched intently. But I saw it in three weeks and I had nothing to do. Three days after reading the book, I was still bored. Finally, my fourth day mother asked me to go with her to move the watermelon!

I put on my boots and started off with the bucket. I walked gingerly on the slippery field, and gradually saw many watermelons, carefully removing the round watermelon, for fear of falling on the ground. "One, two, three..." I put five big watermelons on the bucket, and I lifted the bucket and pulled it back. I was full of sweat when I came home, but "the emperor has no man to do", and my mother gave me an ice watermelon to reward me. Its nice!

But, those are memories, and the new semester is the one that needs to be faced.

Every vacation is expected, every holiday is memorable, every holiday is worth remembering, every holiday is colorful, every holiday is wonderful. The long-awaited vacation that really makes people feel relaxed and wanted the bag flew into the air and let him ruin, hate books will be torn in two, with the solution of the heart "stuffy" school for such a long time, always feel like chanting, blankly.

In October 1st, there was an inevitable national day of golden week. I heard from my familys TV that Change two will launch and launch at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center at eighteen fifty-nine, fifty-seven seconds in October 1st this year. I took off at nineteen oclock. When I witnessed the great cause of aviation in China, I remembered the Change No.1. It has applied for more than 10 patents, and more than 80 patents are being applied. The Change two should be better because the times are improving. Ive also heard about the Diaoyu Island in China. - the Diaoyu Islands, the full name of "Diaoyu Islands" shidori called Senkaku islands". The Diaoyu Islands by the Diaoyu Islands, yellow tail Island, Akao Island, South Island, North Island, South Island, North Island and flying Seto island and other islands, a total area of about seven square kilometers. It is located in the east longitude 123 degree - 124 degree 34 ", the north latitude 25 - 4" - 26 degrees.

Think about the history of China and think about Chinas present. Though China is very weak on the surface, if todays president wants to dominate the world, China can still do it.

每一个假期都是令人期待的；每一个假期都是令人难忘的；每一个假期都是值得回味的；每一个假期都是丰富多彩的；每一个假期都是奇妙的。盼望已久的假期一到，真是让人倍感轻松，恨不得让书包飞到空中让他自取灭亡，恨不得将书本撕成两半，以解心头之‘闷’，开学这么长时间了，总觉得像念经，呆呆的。

十月一日，有一个无法忘记的国庆黄金周，这次我在家中的电视中得知了嫦娥二号将于今年十月一日十八时五十九分五十七秒在西昌卫星发射中心点火发射。十九时整起飞，当我亲眼目睹了中国的航空伟业的时候，我又想起了嫦娥一号，它已经申请了十多项专利，而且还有八十多项专利正在申请中，这个嫦娥二号应该会更好，因为时代在进步。我还听说了，中国的xx事见。——xx，全称“xx群岛”，倭人称其为“尖阁列岛”。xx群岛由xx、黄尾岛、赤尾岛、南小岛、北小岛、大南小岛、大北小岛和飞濑岛等岛屿组成，总面积约七平方公里。它位于东经123°——124°34″，北纬25°4″——26°。

想一想中国的历史，想一想中国的现在，中国表面上虽然很弱，但如果今天的主席向称霸世界的话，中国还是可以做到的，只是现在的主席想的只是和平而已。

The Spring Festival is our traditional festival, people called the Spring Festival, Chinese New Year. In my hometown of chaozhou, there are some special New Year customs.

Before the New Years eve, people are busy with four things: thank god, stock to do next, and to buy necessities. Tide vulgar, a year after the winter solstice, home to thank god. "Red peach hair next" material. Is rice and glutinous rice soak in water for a few hours, respectively, to make rice quality pine hydrophobic, remove dry stone mortar into fine powder, after dry. This is to be "red peach method next" main ingredient. Sweep up to choose an auspicious day, is an unusual thing. The Japanese, and are most busy housewives, clean up the inside and out of the room, for some years to use less cleaning.

December 24, is the period of the legendary "heaven god". Day, every family to worship "sugar peach". A square red paper, with jelly into a peach shape, become "peach". It touch live "sovereign" du mouth, let its "some god that speaks well of us fall to the ground. Chinese New Year to worship the "Sir", also is the god. The sacrifices of god are three: "red peach hair next", "the mouse shell next", "vegetable next".

In the first month, chaoshan region have blessing of gods activity, is the temple of god carried to the street parade, people set off firecrackers, burning incense, the blessing. This is chaozhou custom of Spring Festival.

春节是我国的传统节日，人们把春节叫做过年。在我的家乡潮州，过年就有一些特别的风俗。

在除夕之前，人们都要忙着四件事：谢神、备料做粿、扫舍和买年货。潮俗，每年冬至过后，家里要谢神。备料做“红桃发粿”。是将大米和糯米分别浸于水中几小时，使米质松疏，捞干后于石臼中打成细粉，晒干。这就是做“红桃法粿”的主料。扫舍要选择吉日，是一件不寻常的事。是日，各家主妇最忙，把屋子的里里外外打扫干净，对一些长年少用之物都要清洗。

十二月二十四日，就是传说中的“神上天”之期。是日，家家户户都要拜“糖桃”。一方红纸，上面用软糖摆成一粒桃子的形态，成为“糖桃”。此物沾住“杜王爷”的嘴，让其“上天说好话，落地保平安”。过年还要拜“老爷”，也就是祭神。祭神的祭品有三样：“红桃发粿”、“鼠壳粿”、“菜头粿”。“红桃发粿”就是用绿豆去壳，然后把豆磨成粉，接着蒸熟，做粿馅料。“菜头粿”就是萝卜糕。

过年祭祖，要到除夕日下午。过年，家里已成年有收入的小辈，要给长辈送“压岁钱”，长辈也要对未成年的小辈给“压岁钱”，户户如此，体现了尊老惜幼的美德。

在正月里，潮汕地区都游神祈福的活动，就是把庙里面的神座抬到大街上游行，人们要放鞭炮、烧香、接福。这就是潮州春节的习俗。

Will Christmas Replace the Spring Festival？

Christmas arouses increasing attention year by year in China。 Christmas cards bee popular with students。 People hold Christmas parties and exchange Christmas girts。 A lot or TV and radio programs about Christmas are on。 Meanwhile the Spring Festival is less appealing （有吸引力的）to youngsters。 Thus some people wonder whether Christmas will replace the Spring Festival。

This worry is fairly unnecessary。 Why ？ One reason lies that Christmas only affects Christians，college students and joint-venture （合资企业）workers。 Another reason is that Christmas is mostly celebrated in cities。 Few people in countryside show extreme interest in this exotic（带有异国情调的） festival。 By contrast，the Spring Festival is the most influential traditional festival in every family。

I think，it is natural that with increasing exchanges with the West，a lot of Western holidays have been gradually introduced into China。 For us Chinese we should never neglect or even discard our own traditional festivals。 For centuries Chinese have observed this traditional holiday to wele the beginning of a new year。 And we will treasure the Spring Festival forever。

After mid-term exam,we had a long holiday.I was so busy in this holiday. What did I do?

FirstI did my homework. Our homework was as large as a mountain. ButI finished it in a few time. ThenI helped my mother clean our house. We cleaned and swept everywhere.NextI went to the Wutong Mountain with my friends. We climbed the mountain and breathed fresh air. It was comfortable. We also took some photos. After that,I went to shenzhen library.I bought 《harry potter》this book.It was a story about an interesting, brave, funny boy. Finally, Iwent to the Hengfonghaiyue International Hotel and ate some food.

I really enjoyer myself in this holiday. How about you？

I like to travel to different places, I can see the beautiful scenery and get to know the different cultures. My friends and I always travel together, we make many plans in advance. But the plans will always be interrupted by all kinds of unexpected incidents, like the bad weather, the holiday being cancelled, so we have to spend another time to wait for the trip. Traveling alone can ignore these problems, I can go to travel whenever I want, I just need to pick up my backpack, and then buy the ticket. It is so free, I don’t have to wait for others, I can go to the places I want to. Traveling alone is good.

我喜欢去不同的地方旅行，我可以看到美丽的风景并了解不同的文化。我总是和朋友一起旅行，我们提前制定很多计划。但是计划总是会被各种各样意想不到的事件打断，比如糟糕的天气，假期被取消等等，因此我们不得不花时间等待下次的旅程
