一个十二岁的女孩，身高1米6多。皮肤略黑，眼睛很有特点，平时看起来还不算小，可一笑起来就眯成了一条缝，嵌在圆圆的脸庞上。我的嘴巴并不美，特别是说话时总是能准确地让不“体面”的上排牙齿“闪亮登场”。鼻子呢，除了鼻梁低一些，有点“平坦江川”的气势，其他的都是一般般。——这就是平平淡淡的我。

不知道为什么，升初中的第一天，我就对校园里的一切很好奇，如我以前的同桌，她叫崔蕴，崔蕴这个名字引起了我的遐想，于是我就把它分析了一下。崔蕴同璀璨，而璀璨就是形容星空的，星空就是指宇宙，宇宙里就会有许多陨石，两个陨石在一起相撞，就会爆炸，而爆炸就会使陨石摧烂，摧烂的陨石又慢慢的蕴和在一起。所以，她的名字有着深刻的意义。——这就是爱幻想的我。

In contrast to the sadness of the tomb sweepers people also enjoy hope of Spring on this day. The Qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines brightly the trees and grass become green and nature is again lively. Since ancient times people have followed the custom of Spring outings. At this time tourists are everywhere.

People love to fly kites during the Qingming Festival. Kite flying is actually not limited to the Qingming Festival. Its uniqueness lies in that people fly kites not during the day but also at night. A string of little lanterns tied onto the kite or the thread look like shining stars and therefore are called "god‘s lanterns."

The Qingming Festival is also a time to plant trees for the survival rate of saplings is high and trees grow fast later. In the past the Qingming Festival was called "Arbor Day". But since 1979 "Arbor Day" was settled as March 12 according to the Gregorian calendar.

相反的悲伤的墓扫墓，人们也希望享受春天的这一天。清明节是一个阳光灿烂的日子，树和草都变绿了，大自然又恢复了活力。自古以来，人们都有踏青的习俗。此时到处是游客。

人们喜欢在清明节期间放风筝。风筝放飞其实并不限于清明节。它的独特之处在于人们在白天不放风筝，晚上也放风筝。一串串的小灯笼拴在风筝上或是线上看起来像闪亮的星星，因此被称为“上帝的灯笼”。

清明节也是一个植树的时候，树苗的成活率很高，树木生长快。在过去，清明节被称为“植树节”。但自1979以来，“植树节”定在3月12日根据公历。

I am a lovely little girl, although I am 9 years old, but the understanding of the animal makes you cant believe a ferocious tiger, strange Chinese sturgeon, a giant pandas, a naughty dolphins, with the lion king of the forest, a sly fox, and clever monkey in these animals, my favorite animal is the white rabbit, the rabbit is a common animal, but I saw a small white rabbit remembered in the snow in the joy! Because I like rabbits, so I know it very well!

小白兔长得很普通，雪白雪白的毛儿，非常漂亮，要是下雪，动物们一定以为白兔是雪中小精灵。长长的耳朵，像黑宝石的眼睛，还有一张三瓣嘴，宛如听了什么笑话，笑得嘴都裂开了。

The rabbit is very common, white hair, very beautiful, if it were to snow white, animal must think snow elves. Long ears, black stones like the eyes, and a three valve mouth, like to listen to what a joke, grin cracked.

我猜白兔长得不特别是因为它吃得不好，吃一些萝卜或者青菜，我就搞不懂它为什么不吃肉呀?如果我是白兔，我就吃肉，不吃萝卜。

I guess the rabbit isnt particularly because it is not good to eat, eat some carrots or cabbage, I do not know why it does not eat meat? If I was a rabbit, I eat meat, do not eat radish.

我很喜欢兔子，所以小时候妈妈给我买了一只可爱的小白兔，可惜它在我家只过了一天就死了，还记得那天中午，妈妈买了青菜，我就拼命地把菜往小白兔的笼子里塞，白兔狼吞虎咽地大吃起来，好像一个星期没吃饭似的。就这样我让它吃了很多青菜，结果它被吃撑死了呀!唉!我真希望兔子像千年老龟一样活那么长时间呀!

I like the rabbit, so when my mother bought me a cute little rabbit, but it in my home, only one died, remember that day at noon, my mother bought vegetables, I tried to put food into the small rabbit rabbit cage plug, eat like wolves and tigers to eat, If hadnt eaten for a week. So I let it eat a lot of vegetables, it is eat dead! Oh! I really hope that the rabbit like a thousand year old turtle live so long time!

听了我的介绍，你喜欢兔子吗?

I would like to tell you a secret. I have a great penfriend. We haven’t see each other ever. But we are good friends. We have common interest and always know what each other thinks. We both like reading, watching movies and listening to soft music. If anyone of us find any new books, latest movies or some wonderful music, we will recommend to the other one. And then we will share the feeling after reading, watching or listening. If I have any trouble, I will tell him. And almost everytime he knows the best way to comfort me. If he is upset, I would do the same thing for him.

我想告诉你一个秘密。我有一个很好的笔友。我们彼此都没见面。但我们是好朋友。我们有着共同的兴趣而且总是知道对方的想法。我们都喜欢读书，看电影和听音乐。如果我们中的任何人发现任何新书，新电影或一些美妙的音乐，我们会推荐给另一个。之后我们会分享读后感。如果我碰到什么困难，我都会告诉他。几乎每次他都知道安慰我的最好方法。如果他不高兴，我会为他做同样的事情。

She often teaches me the way of learning well. (If you want to learn English well, here is some of my advice. At first, you must read many articles and know many words. If you meet up with some new words, you can look them up in the dictionary. You should know their meanings, how to read them and spell them. If you keep working hard, you will be successful. Then, you ought to speak English as much as possible. 可省) In any case，remember an old saying; Nothing is impossible in the world if you put your heart into it.

In my spare time, I have many hobbies. I like reading, playing the piano and dance. I am so good at dancing that I have got many awards.

My Family

Everyone has a family. We live in it and feel very warm. There are three persons in my family, my mother, father and I. We live together very happily and there are many interesting stories about my family.

My father is a hard-working man. He works as a doctor. He always tries his best to help every, patient and make patients comfortable. But sonetimes he works so hard that he can’t remember the date.

My mother is a woman with a bad memory. She always does a lot of housework, but sometimes she makes mistakes out of carelessness. For example, one day, she washed clothes in the washer, after the washer finished the work, she found she hadn’t filled the washer with water.

Now let me tell you a funny thing: one day, father wanted to get up early as usual, buthe wasn’t able to do that, because he hadn’t set the alarm clock the night before, so when he got up, he did everything in a hurry. After father left, mother said to me mysteriously, "He will come back soon." "Why?" I was greatly surprised. "Because today is Sunday, his holiday!" Just as mother said, father came back home soon, and went to bed again--he was too tired.

You see, what an interesting family have! I hope that you will have one like mine, too.

The Mid-Autumn or Moon Festival is one rich in poetic(诗意的) significance. Ancient legends(古代的传说) that became interwoven with this festival‘s celebration further contribute to the warm regard in which it has always been held by the Chinese people. According to the lunar calendar(农历)， the seventh， eighth， and ninth months constitute the autumn season. Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month， precisely in the middle of this season， when the heat of the summer has given way to cool autumn weather， marked by blue skies and gentle breezes. On this day the moon is at its greatest distance from the earth; at no other time is it so luminous. Then， as the Chinese say， “The moon is perfectly round.” In the villages the heavy work involved in the summer harvest has already been completed but the autumn harvest has not yet arrived.

The actual origins of the Mid-Autumn Festival are still very unclear. The earliest records are from the time of the great Han dynasty emperor Wu Di， who initiated celebrations lasting three days， including banquets and “Viewing the Moon” evenings on the Toad Terrace. We know that people during the Jin dynasty (265-420 A.D.) continued the custom of Mid-Autumn Festival celebrations， and similar accounts have come down to us from the time of the Tang dynasty. During the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) houses and gardens were decorated with numerous lanterns and the sound of gongs and drums filled the air.
