Winter is like your room, if you can clean it very well, you will like it, but if you throw things in a mess, you dont want to know, you must hate it. "Winter" is the same, you use a good attitude to look at it, you will definitely like me, step by step slowly falling in love with the "different winter".

I like winter, because only winter can make trees appear different styles. From spring and summer to autumn, leaves are always changing and changing. But winter can make trees become bare. I like to accompany my brother to practice football with my family in winter, not only to make my body warm, but also to give my brother an opportunity to practice more. There are also, in winter, I dont know if you have noticed that mosquitoes are missing a lot. At last, they can make me calm down and do well in homework. This is also a great benefit of winter. The last reason is my favorite, the family out to buy Hot pot material, in supermarkets to all of a sudden to the streams of people busily coming and going, in winter, many fewer people, do not have to queue for a check out, is really good, in the winter, the whole family sitting around the round table, each other help each other to resist the cold wind up, this feeling is only a winter feel, together with my family, so hot fireplace, warm atmosphere, in addition to "winter", any season cant taste good.

Anyway, there are also its shortcomings in winter. Of course, there are cold and cold currents that make the nose and water direct. They will make us want to hide in the quilt, but occasionally, this is not a bad thing. In a word, I like it in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and each season has its own characteristics, of which, winter is a very special one. But every trip to winter makes me feel different.

“冬季”就像你的房间，如果能整理的很干净，自己就会喜欢它；但如果你把东西丢的乱七八糟，那不用想也知道，你一定很讨厌它。“冬季”也是一样，你用好的心态去看待它，你绝对会如同我，一步一步的慢慢爱上那“不一样的冬季”。

我喜欢冬季，因为只有冬季，能使树木出现不一样的风格，从春天、夏天在到秋天，叶子都一直变多、变色，但“冬季”却能让树木成为光秃秃的一片。我喜欢在冬季与家人一同去陪弟弟练足球，不仅让我的身体变暖和，也给弟弟多一次练习的机会呢！还有还有，在冬季时，不知道你有没有发现，蚊子顿时少了很多，总算能让我静下心来好好写功课了，这也是冬季的一大好处唷！最后一个理由也是我最喜爱的原因了，全家一起出动去买火锅料，在员来熙熙攘攘的大卖场，一下子到了冬季，人少了许多，结帐都不必排队排个大老远，真是不错，在冬季，全家人一起围着圆桌，互相帮对方把冷飕飕的风给抵挡起来了，这种感觉也只有冬季感受的到 了，和家人一起围炉，如此这般热融融的气氛，是除了“冬季”之外，任何一季都品尝不到的好滋味。

反正不管怎么说，当然冬季也有它的缺点，像是有冷到令人鼻水直流的寒流等，都会使我们想躲在被窝里不要出来，但偶尔这样，也不是件坏事吧！总而言之，春夏秋冬我都喜欢，每一季都有它的特色，其中，冬季是很特别的一个喔！但是每经过一趟“冬之旅”，都让我有不同的感受。

In life we all have to go through failure, but failure is terrible, just keep an optimistic attitude, can overcome difficulties.

Who will be failure, some people give up after failure, however, some people maintained an optimistic attitude, fell to climb up from there. If you ask I will choose which one, I will choose the latter. If you dont believe it, then read on!

Remember once the mid-term examination, it may be because I am not serious, to solve the problem that the result is not ideal. Looking at the award-winning students happily accept, my heart is envy and regret, regret not serious. If I had some seriously, I am the one can stand on the podium. At this moment, I slammed the thought of "optimistic" this two word, I thought: in fact also nothing important, just a test, the next effort. So, I began to study strenuously. Finally, the next time the mid-term exam, I won the first place. Although this is just a simple two words - optimism, however, some people have no choice, so there is no success. But some people choose optimism and success. Like a famous writer Helen Keller, although she had polio, and dont move, however, she chose the optimism, the final success.

In the pessimistic peoples eyes, things could have been successful as it do not succeed. But in the eyes of an optimist, otherwise might not succeed, they also can do a good job. This is the biggest different optimists and pessimists. In outstanding people, it is easy to find, in failure, we can easily find pessimistic. Therefore, we must be optimistic and optimistic will bring you success.

生活中我们都会经历失败，但是，失败并可怕，只要保持着一个乐观的心态，就可以战胜困难。

谁都会经历失败，有的人失败以后就放弃了，但是，有的人就保持着一种乐观的心态，那里跌到就从哪里爬起来。如果你问我会选择哪一个，我会选择后者。如果你不信，那就往下读吧!

记得有一次期中考试，可能因为我做题时不认真，那次的成绩不太理想。看着那些获奖的同学们高高兴兴的领奖，我心里又羡慕又后悔，后悔当初不认真。如果当时我认真一些，可能站在领奖台上的人就是我了。这时，我猛的想起了“乐观”这俩个字，我就想：其实也没什么，只是一次考试而已，下次努力就行了。于是，我开始发奋学习。终于，在下一次的期中考试中，我获得了第一名。虽然这只是简单的两个字——乐观，但是，有些人就没有选择乐观，因此没有成功。但是有的人选择了乐观，从而获得了成功。就像著名的作家海伦-凯勒一样，她虽然得了小儿麻痹症，下身完全不能动了，但是，她选择了乐观，最后走向了成功。

在悲观人眼里，本来可以成功的事也把它看成做不成功的。但是在乐观者眼里，本来看似不可成功的，他们也能做好。这就是乐观者与悲观者的最大不同。在卓越的人身上，我们不难发现乐观，在失败的人身上，我们很容易发现悲观。因此，我们一定要乐观，乐观会给你带来成功。

In my memory, I will never efface the image of a common service worker.

It was last New Year when all my family members gathered together that suddenly the heating pipe broke up. The warm steam burst forth from the crack. We could do nothing but have a shot at calling the household management center. Fortunately, someone answered it and decided to send a person here.

Ten minutes later, a middle-aged man came. He quickly shut the valve, but one of his hand was hurt by a spine carelessly. Not having a rest, he replaced the broken pipe. It took him half an hour to finish replacing it. Only after that did he remember his injured hand.

In our thankful sight, he disappeared in the curtain of night. He must have been getting together with his family, but he did the job for the sake fo others’ convenience at this special night. What a nice man! I will never forget him.

九岁那年的暑假，我去姑姑家带两个六岁以下的小表弟，才发生了那件事。

记得有一天，我和几位小伙伴、两个表弟在后花园的小巷奔跑时，看见了一把破烂不堪的雨伞。我们几个好奇地望望雨伞，一下玩性大发，一个接一个跳到伞的另一边去。我也正在向前跑，突然，一块大石头绊住了我，我一个踉跄，跌了下去，一根又尖又长的东西划伤了膝盖，我爬起来一看，惊呼;‘‘天啊!’’一条又深又粗的伤口正在不停地流血。我急了，疼痛难忍的我嚎啕大哭，声音穿过了好几条巷子。小伙伴和表弟问;‘‘你怎么样了?我们去找人来救你。’’我点了点头。姑姑出去忙了，不能求助于她。正在小伙伴和表弟满世界找人的时候，邻居阿姨闻声出来，一看见我正在淌血的膝盖，马上翻出医药箱，提着跑了过来。她从医药箱里翻出了一瓶碘酒，用棉花蘸一下，涂抹在我的伤口上。我咬咬牙，望了一下阿姨，她头上大汗满淋，嘴里还喃喃地说;‘‘你是怎么回事?伤成这样是很严重的……’’我感动了，轻轻地说;‘‘谢谢您，阿姨!’’她正在为我的伤口治疗，无心去听我的话。不一会儿，伤口完全包扎好了。我正要感谢阿姨时，她却走远了，边走边说;‘‘你下次小心点儿，希望别留下疤痕呀!’’我的眼泪夺眶而出，别人七嘴八舌地说些什么，我也听不进去了。

后来，我的膝盖上还是留了伤疤，我永远都不会忘记那位外表冷酷，内心热情的品德高尚的邻居阿姨。

伸出我们的友爱之手，让我们互相关爱。

Saving Water

The world is not only hungry,but also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly 75 % of the earths surface is covered with water. But about 97% of this huge amount is sea water, or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3% -- the fresh water that comes from rivers, lakes,underground, and other sources. And we cannot even use all of that, because some of it is in the form of icebergs and glaciers. Even worse, some of it has been polluted.

However, as things stand today, this small amount of fresh water, which is constantly being replaced by rainfall, is still enough for us. But our need for water is increasing rapidly-- almost day by day. Only if we take steps to deal with this problem now can we avoid a severe worldwide water shortage later on. A limited water supply would have a bad effect on agriculture and industry. Let me give you just one small exampie of how necessary water is to industry. Did you know that to produce a single ton of steel, it takes about 91, 000 liters of water?

We all have to learn how to stop wasting our precious water. One of the first steps we should take is to develop ways of reusing it. Experiments have already been done in this field, but only on a small scale. For us, the systems are as important as the spacecraft.

节约用水

我们的世界不仅饥饿，而且因为缺水而干渴。对你来说这可能似乎奇怪：因为我们的地球表面75%由水覆盖着。但是，这巨大的数量中97%是海水、或咸水。只有剩下3%

的来自河流、湖泊、地下，和其他来源的淡水供人们饮用、使用。即使如此，这3%的水源我们也不能够完全使用，因为有些淡水是以冰山或冰河的形式存在。更糟糕的是，一些水源已遭受了污染。

然而，尽管按现状看来，这些少量的淡水即使时常转化成雨水的形式，对我们来说，也仍然够用。可是我们对水的需求却日益迅速增长。我们只有现在采取措施解决这一问

题才能避免未来世界范围内的严重水资源缺乏。限量供水会对农业和工业产生不良的影响。我们举个小小的事例就能证明水对工业的必要性。每生产一吨钢材就要消耗91，000升水，你知道吗?

我们必须杜绝对宝贵水资源的浪费。我们应该采取的第一步就是要发展水再利用的方法。该领域的实验已在进行，但是仅是小规模地进行。水资源再利用系统的重要性

对我们而言，与空间站不相上下。
