Dream is in process of growing up, we best friend. It accompanies us grow up tall. To a meaningful life, will strive for the dream to fight.

Recall that uncle lis dream: is a grateful heart to feedback the society, the movement with Oriental characteristics -- tai chi, to the world.

This is a dream blooming age, everyone is a dreamer. The Chinese dream start from my dream.

This story again let me understand what is the power of a dream:

From small Yang Mengheng lost both arms, with his strong will to participate in the paralympic games, said let his spare more rich. Although he didnt finish his wish, he made excellent achievements in study. In this case I know such a truth: the light is not enough to have a dream, also learn to brave dedication to pursue. Adhere to the dream, is a constant process of transcending oneself. Looked up at your dream, down-to-earth efforts to further every day from the dream.

"Young wisdom, wisdom, young strong a country strong!" Our knowledge of the future of our motherland, so from now on, we must have a dream, and strive to realize the dream!

The classmates, because we have a dream in everyones heart, so every little dream together, constitutes the countrys dream, this is the Chinese dream!

梦想是我们在成长过程当中，最要好的朋友。它陪伴着我们长大长高。要想人生有意义，就要为梦想去拼搏去奋斗。

回想起，李连杰叔叔的梦想：就是以一颗感恩的心来回馈这个社会，把具有东方特色的运动—太极，推向世界。

这是一个绽放梦想的时代，每个人都是梦想家。中国梦从我的梦开始。

下面这个故事又一次让我理解了什麽是梦想的力量：

从小失去双臂的杨孟衡，凭着自己坚强的意志参加了残奥会，让自己的课余说更加丰富。尽管他没有完成自己的愿望，但他在学习上作出了优异的成绩。从这个事例中我懂得了这样一个道理：光有梦想是不够的，还学要勇敢执着地去追求。坚持梦想的过程，是一个不断超越自我的过程。抬头看着你的梦想，脚踏实地努力每一天都离梦想更进一步。

“少年智则国智，少年强则国强!”我们承载者祖国的未来，所以从现在开始，我们必须有一个梦，并且为实现梦想努力奋斗!

同学们，正是因为我们每个人心中都有梦想，所以每一个小小的梦想加在一起，就构成了国家的梦想，这就是中国梦!

Dalian is located at the southern tip of Northeast China, bounded by the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea to the west, south and Shandong Peninsula across the sea, connected to the north and northeast of the mainland is a peninsula surrounded on three sides by the sea city.

China has three Peninsula, Shandong Peninsula, Leizhou Peninsula, Liaodong Peninsula. Liaodong Peninsula is referred to here. Because it is a peninsula city, it has the characteristics of the marine climate. She no winter cold, summer without heat. Especially in the summer, Dalian has become a desirable summer resort.

June 5, 2001 granted the United Nations only in Dalian in China, Asia, the second "World Environment 500" city. Jiang said that Dalian is "Northern Pearl", the State Secretary for Tourism to Dalian positioning "romantic."

Beautiful waterfront

If you plane to the plane arrived in Dalian, even when the birds eye view over the city of Dalian in the south with the sea between the sorrowful elegant Weigela is a long coastal road is a great viewing Ben Thanh line is not even the tourists will not come to the place even if only a day trip.

Hello,everyone!Today,Id like to talk to you about myself.Im a outgoing girl,For example, Im always happy no matter what happens.Im generous and am ready to help others.Such people are welcomes wherever they go,because they may bring pleasure to others.

We all live under the same sky and in the same sun,we all hope there are more friendships and more smiles among us. So let‘s improve our characters,thus our life will become more cheerful.

Now, everyone is advocated to save, in addition to material things, there is time, also need to save.

In fact, one minute can do a lot of things, in a book, I see you can write more than 20 words a minute, can walk one hundred steps, we can see 1-2 pages. After watching, I couldnt help wonder: if do it for an hour, you can write more than one thousand words, walk thousands of step road, like dozens of pages, original, as long as make full use of their time, still can do a lot of things in a day!

Back when I was a child, every time I write a summer and winter vacation homework is in the last days of summer and winter vacation last half a month. Why is that? Because I had too much homework? Or because of me what is causing the delay time? Neither. Is because I was not good to save time, dont have to arrange their own time, I always play in the first place, only a little homework every day, until the final assault began. Because of this, my second grade every summer and winter vacation had bad, is a holiday with regret.

You can think about it, how many people regret for wasted time, and how many people because there is no cherish their own time, and missed a lot of things. "If then arrange their own time!" , "if could save time" at that time some people will say so. But, time is not flow back, and so sorry, as now, starts from me, to save time!

现在，大家都提倡节约，除了物质上的东西以外，还有时间，也需要节约。

其实，一分钟是可以干很多的事情的，在一本书上，我看到一分钟可以写二十多个字，可以走一百多步路，可以看1—2页书。看完后，我不由得惊叹起来：如果这样干一个小时，就可以写一千多个字，走好几千步路，看好几十页书，原来，只要把时间充分利用，一天中还是能多干很多事情的呀!

回想小时侯，我每次写寒暑假作业都是在寒暑假的最后半个月的最后几天完成的。为什么呢?是因为我当时的作业太多?还是因为我有什么事情而耽误了时间?都不是。就是因为我当时不好好节约时间，没有好好安排自己的时间，在一开始的时候总是玩，每天只作一点作业，直到最后才开始进行突击。正因为这样，我的一二年级的每个寒暑假都过不好，都是一个带有遗憾的假期。

大家可以想一想，有多少人因为浪费了时间而后悔莫及，又有多少人因为没有好好珍惜自己的时间，而错过了很多事。“如果当时安排好自己的时间就好了!”，“如果当时能节约时间就好了”有些人会这样说。但是，时间是不会倒流的，与其这样后悔，不如现在开始，从我做起，节约时间!

My dad is a great mathematician, what questions are difficult to fail him, of course, everybody knows him. High bridge of the nose, with a black frame glasses, a look, and I knew he is a doctor. Today, he is a face of serious drop packing, he have what important thing? Find out just know, he was to go to see the teacher. I doubt asked my father: "what do you have a teacher?" Dad is patted me on the map, said: "these are the secret," "I asked dad took me to meet his teacher, father to consider for a moment, said:" ok." But you want to quietly, not nonsense...

Teacher patted my dads shoulders, and said: "you over the years, achievements in mathematics is really great, we all are proud of you!" Father is modestly said: "I want to thank the teacher you, are you people I learned more knowledge."

At this moment, I realized, dad is a mathematician, but he also had a grade teacher.

我的爸爸是位大数学家，什么题都难不倒他，当然，谁都认识他。高高的鼻梁上，架着一个黑框眼镜，一看，就知道他是一个博士。今天，他一脸严肃滴收拾东西，他有什么重要的事?一打听才知道，他原来是要去看望老师。我疑惑地问爸爸：“您怎么还有老师?”爸爸则拍拍我的图，说：“这些都是秘密》”我请求爸爸带我去见见他的老师，爸爸考虑了片刻，说到：“那好吧。”不过你要安安静静的，不能胡闹……我答应了他所有的要求，我们便上路了。

我本以为他会带我去哪个大学里，可是，我们居然来到了我所就读的小学并来到了我曾上过的一(3)班，这时，我终于见到了爸爸的老师，这个老师竟然是我的数学老师，也是爸爸曾经的老师。老师拍拍爸爸的肩膀，说：“你这些年，在数学是上成就确实很大，我们全校都以你为荣!”爸爸却谦虚地说：“我要感谢老师您，是您人我懂得了更多的知识。”

这时，我才明白，爸爸虽然是数学家，可是他也有一年级的老师。

I have a good friend, when I was five years old, I met her, she is my

neighbor, we became friends and play together all the time. Last week, my friend

took part in the female basketball match, she is good at basketball, so I

encouraged her to join our school team. The team played so well that they came

to the final yesterday, the match was so excellent, at last, my friend’s team

won the first place, I feel so happy, I plan to buy her a present and

congratulate her. I feel so proud of her, she inspires me, too. We give each

other encourage to move on. We will be good friends forever.

"XX school student collective food poisoning", "XX place bleak look-out collapse", "XX place again there was a traffic accident"... Life, always hear or see some strange, let person sigh of accident, one after another tragedy always constantly in front of us.

Danger is in our each persons side, sometimes is so near to us. "Lucky" I experienced this once. That, I come home from school, saw this scene: a child was playing in the road, no attention paid to the coming danger, a large truck coming toward her. Others shouted, looking back, the childrens truck, immediately panic, his face pale, legs a soft, straight down to the ground, big trucks the emergency brake, but it was too late, the boy has been under pressure in the car. People suddenly gave a shout, some with burying his face in his hands, did not dare to look down, some by the sudden scene scared silly, just stand in situ. "Another child forever left the world", is really sad. However, when people return to absolute being, has found that children had miraculously stood up, not a little damage.

Many risks ah, had a narrow escape. Thanks to the girl in the middle of front, thanks to the cars chassis is high, if a little partial, if the body again a little bit low, the consequence is unimaginable.

Security, is inseparable from a topic, we will never pay attention to safety, is we all know the truth. But safety accidents happen every day, and constantly increasing, every day in the heartbreaking tragedy. Safety first, with safety, we floral life to blossom. With safety, we can happily spend the youth, life for everyone only once, lost, will not come back. Whenever we up and down the stairs, a little light, quiet a little. Whenever we cross the road, look around first, then walked briskly, whenever we school, want to go home as soon as possible, dont play on the side of the road.

Life is great, but it is fragile. We should cherish life, safety first!

“XX学校学生集体食物中毒”，“XX地方煤井塌陷”，“XX地方又发生了交通事故”……生活中，总会听到或看到这样一些令人惊心，让人叹息的事故发生，一个又一个地悲剧总会在我们面前不断地上演。

危险就在我们每个人的身边，有时离我们是那么近。我“有幸”经历了这么一次。那次，我放学回家，看到了这样一幕：一个孩子正在马路中央玩耍，丝毫没有注意到即将到来的危险，一辆大卡车朝她驶来。旁人高喊一声，那个孩子回头一看，是卡车，顿时惊恐万分，脸色发白，腿一软，人直直地倒在地上，大卡车紧急刹车，可是，已经迟了，那个孩子已被压在车下。人群顿时发出一阵惊呼，有的用双手捂住脸，不敢往下看，有的被突如其来的场面吓傻了，呆呆地立在原地。“又一个孩子永远地离开了这个世界”，真是悲哀。可是，当人们回过神来后，却发现小孩奇迹般地站了起来，没有受到一点伤害。

多险呀，真是死里逃生。幸亏了那女孩倒在了车前的正中间，幸亏了那车的底盘高，如果再偏一点，如果车身再低一点，那后果不堪设想。

安全，是我们永远离不开的一个话题，注意安全，是我们每个人都懂的道理。但是安全事故还是每天都在发生，而且不断地增多，天天都在上演那令人心碎的悲剧。安全第一呀，有了安全，我们如花般的生命才能绽放。有了安全，我们才能开开心心地度过青春年华，生命对每个人来说只有一次，失去了，就永远回不来了。每当我们上下楼梯，轻一点儿，静一点儿。每当我们横穿马路，先左右看一下，再轻快地走过，每当我们放学时，要尽快回家，不要在路边玩耍。

生命是伟大的，但又是脆弱的。我们要珍惜生命，安全第一!

As the proverb goes, “no one knows the value of health until he loses it.”

From this, we know that health is very important to everybody. But how to keep

fit? Many people believe that sports can offer people health and pleasure. As

far as I concern, I think doing physical exercises have lots of advantages.

First of all, doing exercises in the morning will refresh my body as well

as give me a good appetite to eat my breakfast. What’s more, the air in the

morning is really fresh and clean, so I can keep my mind clear and sound in the

class. By doing physical every day I can keep my mind alert that I can finish my

tasks in time. If I do not do any physical exercise, I will feel tired and my

body becomes quite sluggish. During the night, I may find it becomes harder to

fall asleep. Second, doing exercises everyday will help me to mound a better

personality. It takes time and patient to do exercises. Sometimes I just want to

give up, but my friends encourage me to carry on, then I feel a lot of

satisfaction. Doing physical exercises makes me stronger and healthier. That’s

my personal experience.

As a student, sports are indispensable. You can pick up your favorite sport

and do it every day. Only in this way, you can have both pleasure and a healthy

body.

Everyone has hobbies.Hobbies are the important things in our life.I also have hobbies.Next,let me tell you.

每个人都有自己的爱好，爱好是人生重要的事情，我也有业余爱好，下一步让我来告诉你吧。

"We wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas…"Have you heard that song? Yup! Its Christmas time! This Christmas, I stayed with my "host family"1. It was an amazing experience to see how a typical American family would celebrate the biggest western festival of the year.

Christmas, like our Spring Festival, has a meaning in itself. Christmas Day, which is on December 25, is the birthday of Jesus Christ--the son of God. Thats why it is called Christmas. On that day, Christians would get together with their families to celebrate the birthday of Jesus. But nowadays, the religious meaning of Christmas has become less emphasized. To many families, it is just a time of family reunion and the ever-exciting present-giving.

Our school had been on winter vacation since December 11. I stayed at my friend, Stephen Stapczynskis house--his family was my "host family". Although Christmas was still more than ten days ahead, the festive spirit had already been teeming everywhere. The Christmas tree had already been set up, and on every windowsill, there were Christmas lights. On the first day I arrived at their house, Stephen and I helped Mrs. Stapczynski put decorations on the Christmas tree. The tree looked so nice with all the lights on and the beautiful ornaments dangling from its branches.

As Christmas came closer, the whole neighborhood had made preparations too. Some people would hold parties at their houses, inviting all their neighbors to come. So every night, if you went out, you would see a long line of cars parked in front of some house--a partys on!

Whats more, the Christmas decorations that some people put on their windows and in gardens were just amazing. On one night, we went out in our car for a "tour of lights". There was one street that was so famous for its lights that it got its way into the local paper. We had a hard time finding the well-hidden street, but it turned out to be worth the effort. Lights shone brightly in front of nearly every house, on trees, bushes, doors, windows…everywhere, taking different shapes, making it seem almost like daytime. Huge inflatable figures in the front gardens were waving to us: there were Santa Clauses2, of course, chuckling merrily away; and there were also other Christmas figures, like Rudolph3--the red-nosed reindeer--with his red nose gleaming ever so brightly; even Bart Simpson--a character in the famous comedy The Simpsons--had joined the jolly party, wearing a Santas hat. The street set off a lot of "ooh"s and "aah"s inside the car.4 When we left, there was a line of cars in the street, all there to see the lights.

If you choose only to complain and escaperom the ordeal, it will always follow you wherever you go. But if you decide to be strong, the hardship will turn out to be a fortune on which new hopes will arise.

He lost his arms in an accident that claimed his fathers life—who was the main source of support for the family. Since then, he has had to depend on the arms of his younger brother. For the sake of taking care of him, his younger brother became his shadow, never leaving him alone for years. Except for writing with his toes, he was completely unable to do anything in his life.

One late night, he suffered from diarrhea and had to wake up his younger brother. His younger brother accompanied him into the toilet and then went back the dorm to wait. But being so tired, his younger brother fell asleep, leaving him on the toilet for two hours till the teacher on duty discovered him. As the two brothers grew up together, they had their share of problems and they would often quarrel. Then one day, his younger brother wanted to live separate from him, living his own life, as many normal people do. So he was heart-broken and didnt know what to do.

A similar misfortune befell a girl, too. One night her mother, who suffered from chronic mental illness disappeared. So her father went out looking for her mother, leaving her alone at home. She tried to prepare meals for her parents, only to overturn the kerosene light on the stove, resulting in a fire which took her hands away.

Though her elder sister who was studying in another city, showed her willingness to take care of her, she was determined to be completely independent. At school, she always studied hard. Most of all she learned to be self-reliant. Once she wrote the following in her composition: "I am lucky. Though I lost my arms, I still have legs; I am lucky. Though my wings are broken, my heart can still fly."

One day, the boy and the girl were both invited to appear on a television interview program. The boy told the TV host about his uncertain future at being left on his own, whereas the girl was full of enthusiasm for her life. They both were asked to write something on a piece of paper with their toes. The boy wrote: My younger brothers arms are my arms;while the girl wrote: Broken wings, flying heart.

They had both endured the same ordeal, but their different attitudes determined the nature of their lives. It is true that life is unpredictable. Disasters can strike at any time. How you handle misfortune when confronted with it, is the true test of your character. If you choose only to complain and escape from the ordeal, it will always follow you wherever you go. But if you decide to be strong, the hardship will turn out to be a fortune on which new hopes will arise.

无独有偶，另一个女孩也有着同样的遭遇。因为妈妈长期患有精神病，在一天晚上无故出走，爸爸去找妈妈了，家中便只留下她一人。她决定做好饭菜等爸爸妈妈回来吃，却不小心将灶台上的煤油灯打翻，结果双手便被大火夺走了。

虽然在外地读书的姐姐愿意照顾她，可倔强的她一定要自己照顾自己。在学校，她不但读书认真，更重要的是她学会了生活自理。她曾在一篇英作文里写道：我幸福，虽然断了双手，但我还拥有一双脚;我幸福，虽然翅膀断了，但心也要飞翔……

有一天，他们被一家电视台邀请到了演播室。面对主持人，男孩表现出了对前途的迷茫，而女孩则对生活充满了热情。主持人要求他们分别在一张白纸上写一句话。他们分别用脚趾头夹起了笔，男孩写的是：“弟弟的手便是我的手。”女孩却写下了：“翅膀断了，心也要飞翔。”

他们俩都经受了同样的苦难，但不同的人生态度却决定了其生活的本质。是的，人生多变幻，苦难总是在不知不觉中骤然降临。如何应对苦难，是对你的性格的真正考验。面对苦难，如果选择抱怨与逃避，苦难就永远如影随形;但如果选择坚强，苦难便会化作甘泉，滋润美好的希望。
