I grew up into a man of achievement in my eyes.

I am a good designer now, and every day I design it very cheap, no 1000 yuan can be bought. Although the clothes I designed are cheap, how beautiful the clothes I have designed!

Today, when I was designing my clothes, my assistant hurried in and told me a famous company invited me to be a designer there. The monthly student was 1 million. I think about it, or I wont go. My assistant asked me, "why dont you go?" Is it afraid that the boss Ken scolds? " I said here because I have deep feelings, I dont want to go, if I go, you do?" "And if I go, others will not buy such a cheap and beautiful clothes, is not ah?" I went on. "Oh, its a nest. You are so considerate, and you have to be a good example!" The assistant said happily.

At this time, my laptop computer got a new mail. I opened it. It was my brother who was born. He said, "sister, are you still a designer? I am an inventor and a scientist. " I said: "yes, now my clothes have been sold, you go to buy a look, help my body is not beautiful!" "OK, no problem! Im going now

I replied.

“眼下世界里，青草顶天而生，爬虫昼追日，夜逐月。风是透明的河流，雨是冰凉的流星。”在这样如阿勒泰的土地般质朴的文字中，李娟带我走进那从未想象过的茫茫荒野，引领我走出钢铁水泥的城市，来到全世界离海洋最深远的内陆地区，向我叙述着一个平凡农民眼中的耕作劳动和生活气息……

这片遥远的向日葵地的确遥远，它坐落在阿勒泰戈壁草原的乌伦古河南岸，是作者母亲多年前承包耕种的一片贫瘠土地——仅仅九十亩的荒土地。尽管这里荒草丛生，毫无生气，却承载着作者一家生活的盼头和期望。这一片命运千疮百孔的向日葵地，不仅地质不优良，还面临着命运的挑逗和嘲笑：它被母亲一次又一次播种，首次是被鹅喉羚糟蹋殆尽，好不容易长大了的秧苗又遭遇了旱灾，紧随其来的又是虫害……向日葵的生命历经曲折坎坷，也伴随着作者一家的生活起起落落。

向日葵，向往光明之花，更寓意着美好和希望。在作者眼里，它那么倔强顽强，日日夜夜追寻心中的太阳。而种下的向日葵，却犹如失去太阳的花朵，在贫瘠的土地中苟延残喘。一次播种无获，只能等待下一次播种，不管未来风雨雷鸣，不管结果能否收获，每一次，种下的都是期盼，都是渴求，都是对未来的希望。这，也正是作者心中的太阳。正如作者所说，“所谓‘希望’，就是付出努力可能比完全放弃强一点点。”

读到这，我想到了人类的生命。每个人一生下来就是一无所有的，而向日葵最初的种子也一样，从播种入土的那一天开始，就无休无尽地与其他生物竞争，与大自然和天气抗衡，直到疼痛破土而出，又迎来阳光风雨中与命运的斗争。人也一样，从来到世界的那一刻起，就意味着我们的命运具有的不确定性，未来可能面临着数以万计的困难与挑战。如作者一家在阿勒泰的生活——茫茫荒野，寂寞无人烟，生活不仅仅是一场修行，更是一场忍耐孤独与寂寞，踏遍坎坷和荆棘，尝尽艰辛和困难的苦旅。然而，令我深深敬佩的是，在现在正常人无法忍受的极其艰苦的生活环境中，作者一家人始终怀着期冀与执着的内心，带着平静乐观的心态，维持着一个家庭的点滴温情，用善于发现的眼睛和心灵铺展开在荒野中哪怕一点点的生活味道。而如今我们身后强大的祖国也一样，从曾经的繁华一世，到鸦片战争开始的近代屈辱，无数次寻找救国道路，艰辛探索后却是重重碰壁，陷入被他国肆意践踏和侮辱的地步。而在祖国受辱的期间，又有不知多少中华儿女始终包含一片希望，坚守民族信念，追寻国家未来的太阳，甚至不惜抛头颅、洒热血，换来心中信念的火苗燃烧起的熊熊之光，换来由弱到强的伟大飞跃！而这一切，都源于那一份对民族未来自信坚定的期许，那一份对中国信念执着不懈的坚守！

我不知道，在往常临近丰收的季节，荒漠旁颗粒无收的向日葵地对作者来说是一种多大的打击，“像一块死去的皮肤，敷在大地的肉身之上。”我不曾体验过耕种过后收获无果的情景，更不知道，曾经幻想的漫天金黄，如今眼前终究化为乌有的绝望沮丧；但是我知道，平日在学习上有时勤奋刻苦咬牙坚持后仍然在关键一考名落孙山时的失落，知道十分耕耘，可能终无一分收获的伤感；我也知道，在中华民族这一条改革，探索，发展，憧憬的道路上，不论未来风雨，前路坎坷，每一位炎黄子孙都一定会满怀初心，勇往直前！

在他们身上，我不曾看到一点抛弃希望的神情，不曾听到一句消极埋怨的话语；在他们身上，我感受到一种令人惊异与钦佩的积极乐观，体会到一种迎难而上的生活态度，感受到一种执着坚守的民族信念。正如作者的那句话：“一双手的力量不能改天换地，却恰巧能维持个体的生命。”在我看来，千千万万双手不能改朝换代，但一定能接收最耀眼的阳光，创造最伟大的奇迹！命运终不负有心人，无数次怀着侥幸心理播种下充满希望的种子后，种子迎来了如太阳光般金灿灿的耀眼丰收。与此同时，中华民族迎来了从站起来，富起来，到强起来的奇迹性飞跃！

与其说李娟书写的是向日葵的播种、育苗、成熟、灿烂、歉收或丰收，不如说笔下流淌出对人的出现，成长，隐忍，离别的一种独特思考。在书中，我领略到的不仅仅是那片播种种子的向日葵地，更有金色向日葵之外的那些沉重而美丽的事物，是贫寒生活与民族困境中的一丝希望之光，人与人之间的相偎相依，人与自然的和谐共处，人与祖国的紧密联系，以及生命对生命的依恋和怜惜。

我想，李娟的记忆，也一定永远定格在心灵深处的那一大片金灿灿的向日葵地，因为“在大地上，除了白昼之外，麦田的金色是最大的光明。”充满希望地伴随她的人生路和心灵旅程。即使到了现在，每每回忆起，仍然“有无数条路通向记忆的那片金色的田野，却没有一条路可以走出”。而正是这些烙在记忆深处的经历，塑造了他们满怀希望，为之奋斗的人生，“只有燃烧起内心的希望，经历奋斗的汗水，才能收获金灿灿的果实。”同时，也在我的心中浮现出这样一位在茫茫风沙，寂寥的荒野中眺望远方的少女，伴随着在阿勒泰涌出的片片丰收的金黄中，她迎着心中的太阳，满怀希望，走向未来……

无论何时何地，都不要放弃播种希望的种子和梦想。

眼前出现一大片向日葵。

一阵风吹过，向日葵摇摆起来，仿佛在向我们点头呢！

阳光照下来，这时向日葵正抬着头向太阳公公问好呢！

有时天空下起雨，起了雾，向日葵在雨中蒙蒙的像一片金色的海洋，时不时地翻起金色波浪。一浪连着一浪，好像画家笔下一幅栩栩如生的画，好像天上仙女飘下来的一条金色纱带。

走近关注着一株向日葵看时，你会发现它是金黄色的，走近闻一闻，并没有非常浓的气味。清晨，向日葵的花瓣上有些露珠，这像是大自然给向日葵的一串项链，挂在向日葵的胸前。在阳光下显得熠熠生辉，光彩夺目。

有时，许多蜜蜂在向日葵群中跳舞，工作，累了就在向日葵花瓣上休息，沐浴着向日葵的香味，就能消除疲劳，让神气变得清爽起来。

向日葵还有作用呢！它的作用就是能让人辨别方向，因为向日葵总是面向太阳的，然后根据什么时间太阳在什么方向，按着这样的原理，人们就能辨别方向，不会迷路。

看着这么多的向日葵，我仿佛进入了一个梦幻世界里，来到一个金色的王国，风吹来，向日葵揭起金色的波浪在拍打“海面”，好像世界上所有金颜色都是从这里流出来的呢！

我们从小就知道向日葵这种天花追随着太阳转，让我觉得很神奇。但至今我还没去探究过它为什总是向着太阳呢？

向日葵十分漂亮花杆又高又直，挺拔向上，枝干上长着巴掌大的绿叶，最引人注目的，要数那一朵中间长着密密麻麻瓜子达，外围一圈整齐排列的金色花瓣的花盘了。每一天，当太阳从东近升起时，向日葵也开心地随着微风摇摆起来，迎接新的一天，太阳东升西落，不断地移动着，向日葵的花仿佛一秒种见不到太阳就会枯萎一样，一直向着太阳，追光者”这个名字送给它真是再好不过了。有趣是有趣，那向日获跟着太阳转是一种崇拜？还是说是一种光合作用，它生长必需的？不会是它是喜欢光亮耀的东西才跟着太阳转的？针对这个问题，我要请教

无所不晓的妈妈。

“妈妈，向日葵为什么会这么喜欢太阳，还一刻不停地朝着它，它还知道要思考，真聪明！”我好奇地问妈妈。

“傻孩子，向日葵怎么会思考呢，它可是植物呀！”妈妈摸摸我的头，循循善诱地回答着：“它朝着太阳，肯定是生长需要！”

我的好奇心越来越重了：“我知道了，八成是光合作用！”我十分自豪。

“其实这是它自身结构决定的。”妈妈又在勾起我好学的欲望。

“啊？自身结构？结构很特殊吗？”我听得一头雾水，不知道妈妈讲的什么结构。

妈妈见我一脸疑惑，就又细细地讲了一遍：“在它的花盘下面，也就是茎部，有一种叫做植物生长素的物质，它可以加速繁殖，让向日葵长得更快！”

“生一长一素一？”我嘀咕着记住了这个名字。

“这种生长素怕光，还含有旋光性，因此，每当太阳照到它时，它利用旋光性，催使向日葵旋转，自己躲到背处去“乘凉”了。”

哈，这不正向“叶公好龙”吗？应该是“葵花避日”“追光者”者的名儿，也该改成“逆光者”了吧？

Every family has lots of housework。 Everyone should learn to do some of it。 I often help my parents do housework such as washing clothes， cleaning the room and watering flowers。 I think I‘ve learned how to take good care of myself and my family by doing housework。 Sometimes cleaning all the windows is an enjoyable experience。 I really felt proud of myself。 And doing housework is also a kind of exercise。 The summer holiday is coming。 Im going to learn how to cook some dishes。 My parents will be happy to enjoy them。

向日葵的花语是：沉默的爱，爱慕。——题记

记得小时候我最喜欢的花就是向日葵，因为它总是像着阳光笑，关于向日葵有这样一个故事：“这这是一个凄美的希腊神话传说，克吕提厄是一位海洋女神。她曾是太阳神赫利俄斯的情人，但后来赫利俄斯又爱上波斯公主琉科托厄。妒火中烧的克吕提厄向波斯王俄耳卡摩斯告发了琉科托厄与赫利俄斯的关系。俄耳卡摩斯下令将不贞的女儿活埋。赫利俄斯得知此事后，彻底断绝了与克吕提厄的来往。痴情的克吕提厄一连数天不吃不喝，凝望着赫利俄斯驾驶太阳车东升西落，日渐憔悴，最终化为一株向阳花。”

我感觉向日葵的花语不应该是沉默的爱，爱慕，而是痴情。

要种向日葵啦！向日葵的种子长得像瓜子，黑黑的，比其他种子大了好多。某些种子身上似乎被刮过一小点皮一样，身上有一点白色的。种子中间凸了出来。青菜种子就和向日葵种子相反。非常小，跟凤仙花的种子差不多。圆圆的，颜色比向日葵种子淡，有的偏黄了些。

种花的第三天。向日葵的茎长出来了。它的茎粗粗的、绿绿的，黑黑的种子立在上面，笔直笔直的，叶子还没有长出来，真奇特。青菜种子仍然还没有生长出来。

种花的第五天。向日葵的叶子长出来了，种子已经没了，两片大叶子中间长出两片小叶子，叶子硬硬的。青叶在第五天才刚刚长出来，不仔细观察还看不出来，两片大叶子竟然保护着两片小叶子，还无精打采的样子。叶子的颜色还是黄黄的呢！茎的颜色不是绿色的而是白色的，这就是青菜的独特之处吧！

The Spring Festival is coming. I know that you must be very fond of the Spring Festival. Because everyone can stick to the spring festival couplet, see the Spring Festival Gala, visit friends and friends … …

I remember when the Spring Festival approached last year, I learned to write couplets at home. I stood aside and looked at the couplets written by adults. I saw that they dipped in a pen with ink, and then wrote several big words on the red paper. I cant remember the specific content. The couplet was very neat, and I said to my uncle, &ldquo, can you teach me to write a couplet? ” I remember clearly the uncle asked, "“ do you use a brush?" Do you know how to write a couplet? ” I shook my head and said, “ no. ” so he said, "“ you have grown up for one year again, and you cant even use a brush. Ill teach you a few tricks at this opportunity." ” after hearing the uncles words, I jumped up happily.

The uncle told me to sit straight while writing, not on the table. And then tell me in detail how to use the brush. After listening to my uncles words, I finally learned some of the most basic ways to use the brush. Then the uncle asked me to write a few words to show him. I wrote five words: “ I love Chinese &rdquo most; Written askew, probably just use a brush! The uncle saw a smile: “ the word was written well, but the pen was not straight. ”

So my uncle taught me: “ when writing every word, it is not to use the same strength to write every word, but the power should be changed with weight. The written words will be more varied and look more beautiful. The uncle finished the demonstration and wrote several words to imitate me. It is comfortable to look at the words written by the uncle. I tried to write a few words on my uncles look, and I really made progress. I was much happier than I had just written.

The uncle also told me that writing should be often trained to imitate the name. The more it is written, the more writing it is, the better it is.

In this Spring Festival, I have learned a little bit of writing brush writing skills, is really more happy than to get the money, but also more affordable.

During last summer vacation, I paid a visit to my uncle’s. It was the first time I had seen the sea. Tow years ago my uncle, a closed friend of my father, transferred from Shanxi to Yantai, a beautiful port city; and then my aunt joined him a couple months later. And a year later I became their guest and was going to stay with them for a week. I was fascinated by the vastness of the sea, the clean and soft sand on the beach, the seagulls flying in the sky and the beauty of the golden sunset clouds over the dark blue water. But I missed the sunrise each day, for I couldn’t get up early enough.

On the fifth day, the alarm clock woke me up when it was still dark outside, I hurried to the beach and stood in the cool breeze there, the sky was turning grey little by little, the sea was calm and all was so quiet that I felt I was surrounded by mysteries, then suddenly, in the faraway horizon, golden beans of light were shooting up into the sky. A moment later, a corner of the sun appeared. The sun was rising very slowly and reluctantly as if it was unwilling to leave the sea. At last the entire sun lay on the horizon, so big and so red, it looked like a huge ripe orange or a tender half-boiled yolk. It hesitated and shivered a moment, then said goodbye to the sea and rose into the air. The scene was very beautiful, touching and magnificent which I’ll never forget.

早晨，旭日东升，阳光滋润着世间万物，各种鲜花沐浴着晨光像比美似的一朵比一朵开得妩媚。惟独有一朵花不与百花竟艳默默的仰望着自己的“理想”，它便是那嫩黄色的向日葵了。向日葵不分四季的向阳生长着，它除了外型酷似太阳以外，花朵也明亮大方，向日葵全身上下都是宝。

如果种了满山坡的向日葵，秋夏，当你看到这些向日葵成为一片金黄色的海洋时，那片金色海洋里的向日葵都会朝着一个方向——东方，当你看到这一幕时难道不会觉得很壮观？很赏心悦目吗？而且听爷爷说向日葵一身都是药，种子、花盘、茎叶、茎髓、根、花等均可入药。它可以平肝祛风，清湿热，消滞气，有极高的药用价值。

向日葵的葵花子还可以炸成油供人们食用，还有葵花托盘上长出的瓜子想必大家都吃过，吃起来有一股淡淡的清香，非常爽口。

葵花既然有这么多的作用，这样在家里种些向日葵又何乐而不为呢？又想想葵花那无私的精神是不是值得我们去学习呢？有句诗是这样叙述葵花的：“更无柳絮因风起，惟有葵花向日倾”。我赞赏葵花追求光明，天天向上的精神，更要学习它充实自己奉献社会的精神。

虽然它的色彩不比玫瑰鲜艳夺目，也没有水仙花的娇俏，可它那天天向上向往光明的精神却濯洗着人们的心灵，不管经历多少风雨，只要有阳光它就立刻昂起头。

Talking of examinations,I feel that they are one of the important activities in school life.Since the first day I went to school,I have had to deal with them almost every day.All through my secondary school days,I have gone through al kinds of exams,entrance exams,tests,quizzes and so on. I have tasted the flavour of happiness,sadness and laughter.

Before every exam,there is always a certain time for me to suffer.The world before me seems to be sad and gloomy.I feel that all my books are disgusting.During examinations,I am always like a computer.I try hard to squeeze out every piece of information to answer my questions.A machine has no feelings,but I am nervous,my heart beats hard.

After the swesty battle,the world seems to be bright again.A disaster is over.I become lively again,and begin to discuss every problem with my classmates.

Dear Sir,

I understand your well-respected college offers a number of places to

overseas students every year, and I am writing to enquire about the application

procedure.

I am at present a student at Mary High School, Hong Kong, where I have been

studying for the past five years. I passed the Hong Kong Certificate of

Education Examination last year with distinctions in English and History, and

credits in Economics and English Literature. My advanced-level subjects are

History, Economics and English Literature. In addition to these subjects, "Use

of English" is also a compulsory subject because a pass in English is a minimum

requirement for admission to most faculties of the University of Hong Kong.

Apart from academic work, I have been actively involved in extra-curricular

activities. I am Chairman of the English Club and I have represented my school

in many inter-school contests.

On the advice of my friends, I have decided to further my studies in

England because I wish to widen my horizons and benefit from the scholarly

heritage of your country.

I wish to continue to study the above-mentioned subjects at your college in

the 2006/7 academic year before I sit the Advanced-level Examinations in

England.

As regards my character, Mrs. Chen, my Principal, and Mr. Huang, my English

master, have agreed to act as my references.

As I come from a family of fairly limited means, I would like to know if

there is any financial assistance available for overseas students.

Attached is a summary of my qualifications for your reference.

I should be grateful if you would kindly consider my application and notify

me of the result at your earliest convenience.

Should you require any further information, please feel free to contact me

or my references.

Yours faithfully,

Lily Chen

It is indeed difficult to live without a mobile phone as it helps us in day

to day activities. I cannot live without a mobile phone. Todays generation uses

mobile phones for chatting, surfing and playing games. They dont use the mobile

phone for the real purpose. I admit that living wothout a mobile phone is

extremely difficult but I can live without addicting apps like Facebook, Twitter

etc. The iPhone is a gadget that is encouraging to use social apps and addicting

games. These gadgets though facilitate our work but are making us their slaves.

For example, if a persons iPhone is not working properly, he will be filled

with anger. As new technology is creating new gadgets, so are people raising new

demands. They also hamper academics. Buy a mobile phone but use it for something

productive.

I have many friends,but my best friend is Tom.Now,I want to introduce him

to you.He is very smart and friendly.He likes sports such as,playing

basketball,table tenis,and so on.We often play together.He is good at maths and

English .He often helps me do my homework,so I have made good progress in my

lessons now.Of course her pingpong skill is great,and we always enjoy ourselves

with her pingpong friends.I have learned a lot from him ,we care about and help

each other,so I think Tom is my best friend."

你们看见过向日葵吗?你们会画向日葵吗?向日葵的脸时时刻刻朝着太阳，接受着阳光的沐浴。在外公的田里，就种着几株生机勃勃的向日葵。

早上，阳光普照大地。向日葵们把头对准太阳，尽情享受清晨第一缕阳光的问候;中午，它们总仰起那金色的脸来，让阳光洒落自己巨大的花上;晚上，太阳徐徐落山，它们又面向西方，像一个个士兵，庄重而严肃地站着，向天边最后一抹晚霞告别。就连下暴雨时，它们还是顽强地仰着头，努力寻找太阳，不找到绝不罢休。六月过了，太阳更增加它的威力，当花儿不想争奇斗艳的时候，向日葵却逐渐开了起来。这时向日葵的茎上长出了密密的茸毛，像一条毛茸茸的大尾巴，在太阳的烘烤下，挺着胸膛，不屈地站着，孕育着新的生命。这几天，外公的向日葵像病了似的，一个个把它们的大脑袋垂了下来。我问外公向日葵为什么不再向着太阳转了，外公说：“向日葵就快成熟了，它在向人们暗示，到了收获的季节了。我把向日葵提了起来一看，果然黑压压的一大片，葵花籽个个饱满，像个个胖娃娃，仿佛碰一下就会掉下来似的。我摘下一颗葵花籽，剥开壳，一缕清香直沁肺腑。

我爱向日葵，它的果实既可以炒着吃，又可以榨葵花籽油，浑身都是宝。向日葵，还有它执著的品质值得我们每个人用心去学习。
