高三关于我的寒假英语作文精彩20篇

The wind gently murmured,puffed and sometimes sighed like a summer breeze lifting the leaves along the livelong night.The cat was curling up quiet in her bed.The mouse was sleeping carefree in his gallery.The dog was lying swwet on the sofa.Even the earth itself was sleeping in tranquility,exept that some house door faintly creaked upon its hinge,telling us a remote inward warmth.Nature was at her midnight work with feathery flakes whirling down in the wind,as if she was showering her silvery seeds over the fields.

Finally I woke up.The floor creaked under my feet as I moved towards the window.The snow as warm as cotton was lying calmly upon the window sill and the stillness of the morning was extremely impressive.

The roofs were standing under their snow caps,while the eaves were wearing their glittering ornaments.The trees raised white arms to the sky on every side,and where there was a wall,there were some fantastic forms of snow stretching exhilarated in the dim landscape,as if Nature had carved her fresh desighs by night as models for mans art.

Silently,I opened the door and stepped outside to face the cutting air.The moon had already lost some of its glow and the land was bathed in a dull mist.A lurid light in the east proclaimed the approach of day while the weatern landscape was bleak with some spooky stillness like a wizard kingdom.What you could only hear was the creepy sounds,seemingly out of the hell----the barking of dogs,the hammering of blacksmith,the lowing of cows and the crying of pigs under the butchers knife.

Gradually,the lurid light darkened and spread across the west.Every flower,every tree and

every weed were bathed in the sunshine.Suddenly,it turned out that all the sounds were not for any melancholy they suggested,but for their twilight bustle which was too solemn and mysterious for me.

I moved om,treading briskly along the road,the dry and crisped snow crunching under my feet.

Sat. , Feb. 6 Fine later cloudy

A book exhibition

Dropped in at National Library to see the National Book Exhibition which will close today. Suprised at the fact that so many kinds of books are published in our country. Thought the childrens books with many pages of colorful illustrations were made very nicely. Bought a copy of the Chinese version of English and American Short Stories at a 20 per cent discount. Am going to read this through in this good season for reading.

书展

信步走到图书馆看即将在今天结束的全国书籍。惊奇的是发现我们国家竟然出版了这么多种的书籍。我觉得富有多页彩色插图的儿童书籍印刷的相当精美。我买了一本打八折的《英美短篇小说》中文版。我要在这读书的好季节里将它读完。

Today，the weather does not alternate very much.I and the schoolmate go out to picnic together！We have been arriving at Shan Shang ，the gentle breeze has been boasting lightly ，have been feeling comfortable extremely！We have brought a good deal food and drink along！We eat as well as chatting ，have good good time

I passed a meaningful and colorful day.In the morning I did some of my homework.In the afternoon，I went shopping with my mom.In the evening，I watched a very funny movie.

The sun is like a boat, time marches on. At once, the winter vacation passed, the new semester will begin. During this period, I passed a lot of things: hei, anger, sorrow, joy. However, the most memorable is and brother together of the day.

It was a night of Spring Festival, my brother and I are playing with a computer. All of a sudden, the aunt ran: "fireworks, you hurry up go to rob the fireworks." She say that finish, well run down, brother took two incense sticks, lit. He gave me a piece, then, we rushed to the front of the fireworks in the box, each take a later, "ran". Get a clearing lit. "Sou" fly to the sky with a "bang", great. Later, we get the "arms" to play, it is the name of the thunder king rai-oh. I use a little, then a throw, 1 of "bang", the neighbors car full rang. Brother threw a transmitter, it hasnt fry, Ill shoot it into space "bang", almost as bright as day. We play again after a butterfly...

Everything passed will have feelings, and my feeling is: although had a great winter vacation, but also always remember learning, learning is the main, other are minor, the new semester will start again, so cant play now, at any time to meet new challenges.

日月如梭，岁月如流。转眼间，寒假过去了，新的学期要开始了。在这段时间里，我经过许多事：有喜，有怒，有哀，有乐。但是，最值得怀念的就是和弟在一起的日子。

那是春节的一个晚上，我和弟正玩着电脑。突然，阿姨跑过来说：“放烟花了，你们快点下去抢烟花。”她说完，我们马上就跑下去，弟拿了两根香，点着了。他给了我一根，然后，我们冲到装烟花的箱子前面，每人拿了一个后，“拔腿就跑”。拿到一个空地点燃了。“嗖”的一声飞到天上“砰”，漂亮极了。后来，我们去拿了“军火”玩，它的名字叫雷王。我用香一点，然后一扔，“砰”的一声，邻居的车全响了。弟扔到一个发射器里，它还没炸，我就把它射到太空中“砰”，几乎跟白天一样明亮。之后我们又玩了蝴蝶飞舞……

凡事经过了就会有感受，而我的感受是：虽然寒假玩得很爽，但是也要时刻记着学习，学习才是主要的，其它都是次要的，新的学期又将要开始，所以现在不能玩了，随时迎接新的挑战。

Time is fast, the blink of an eye is over, the happy holiday is coming, with excitement and excitement to wait for the arrival of the winter vacation.

At last, in the middle of waiting, holidays begin. What do I do for a long vacation? Whats more, I want to do some meaningful things at the same time, for example, going sightseeing and visiting relatives and friends are good choices. This holiday is very common, after all, this years holiday is the first long holiday to be promoted to junior high school. I think one of the most interesting things in this winter vacation should be to go skiing in Lotus green mountain before the year.

The day we went to skiing, it was a little cloudy, but not very cold. Early in the morning, he got up and arrived in the lotus green mountain. Near the mountain, I saw a vast white piece of white, wow, good white and beautiful. As soon as the car stopped, my friends and I hurried down, like a rocket to buy a ticket. With the excitement of the mood to buy tickets, snow war, school shoes, and skateboard, all ready, into the skiing field. We come early, there are few people in the snow, to our moment. Wearing snow shoes, skateboard, holding her hands, watching the snow, I slip up. Some of the companions do not slide. As they slide up, the skateboard is still falling because of the lack of strength. We do not admit defeat, slide down, we are not afraid, continue to climb up. At last, it was almost at the center of the snow. We decided to slide down together. No one was looking at the bottom. He jumped up and down and watched himself skating. But at the moment, because I cant stop, bang bang, all of a sudden fall. Gee, it hurts to die, but the skiing does not fall and can learn to fall. Clapping hands, fighting the snow, and starting to slide up again. Others have also learned to slip from skateboarding tricks - your feet close to the middle. Once I didnt slip down, my feet and feet, haha, stopped, and a sense of achievement. After a successful, I am fearless, go higher, not afraid of slipping, the body can slow down a slide is getting better and better. Looking at the little buddies around them, they will fall down and climb up. They laugh at me. I am a little teacher. I teach them how to skate, how to stop, how to slow down and how to ski. Really fast, just slipping hard, it is not willing to leave.

There was a lot of fun in this winter holiday, but I felt that skiing was the most impressive thing. After all, she was learned through her own efforts. I want to do better in the future, let every vacation live full, happy!

During the winter vacation, nothing is different for my life. I wake up 11

o’clock Am everyday, after a washing, I have a good lunch with my parents. Next

I play computer games till the time to have supper. After have dinner. I go on

playing till 2 o’clock Am, and then go to sleep with tired. This is one dull day

of my winter vacation.But I haven’t bored all the time. Sometimes I read the

books, sometime I listen to the music or the radio in the bed，because it was

very cold outside and snowy all the day. And I also meat some of my good friends

during the vacation ,we have a very long talk about the life of each other in

the past year and play table tennis tegether .And I watched the spring festival

The day of the winter vacation, although only a short, but I still have a very full, very satisfied.

During the festival, everyone together, sit together, eat together, family reunion dinner on the table filled with a lot of both sweet and tasty food, and a pot of steaming hot pot, the pot hot pot for us to add a lot of festive atmosphere! Eat the family reunion dinner, I suggested to play poker, just adults is carefree boring, I this proposal, the adults have raised his hand and approval. We had moved the two small table in the living room, began to play after move the desks and chairs, result I won only a few, mostly lost to dad, they are all good, I lose very miserably!

After play poker, we each take chairs and tables. Then, everyone will be watching the Spring Festival gala in the sitting room, some programs are very funny, let all of us laugh. See half, grandpa, grandma came to send me a red envelope and brother; When we get a red envelope, also do not forget to grandpa grandma happy New Year. After a while, my father to send red packets to us, too. Dad after the hair, and soon, aunt, uncle, aunt are to send a red envelope. Gradually, my "pouch" began to swell up, I and my brother in dancing, daily slag is compressed into a wallet, finally had a "down"

But in the festival, although we children very happy, but the adults are busy out New Year, also want to spend a lot of money to pack a red envelope, is really a big loss of blood! But we can be cleaned up a pair, but it also thanks to my new baby sister, thanks to her I just had so much money to get.

A happy moment is always short, my holiday also wasted as the sea, leaving only a laundry list of homework, this bottom can open "kill".

Just like that, left to learn more and more closer to the day, winter vacation the dribs and drabs of life, the good times, here is the end. After the start of the next would not be in such a lazy, the hard to read the book! Put in the winter vacation of a good time in life, all in my mind, let them become a good memory! Also my winter holiday life draw a perfect full stop!

寒假的日子，虽然只有短短的，但是我依然过得很充实，很满意。

过年的时候，大家都欢聚一堂，坐在一起，一起吃团圆饭，桌上放满了一大堆既香又可口的美食，还有一锅热腾腾的火锅，这锅火锅为我们增添了不少节日的气氛呀!吃完团圆饭，我提议说要玩扑克牌，正好大人们正闲着无聊呢，我这个提议一出，大人们纷纷举手赞成。我们就搬了两个小桌子放在客厅，搬完桌椅后就开始玩了，结果我只赢几场而已，大部分都输给了老爸，他们各各都好厉害，我输的好惨呀!

玩完扑克牌后，我们就各自把桌椅拿去放好。然后，大家就作在客厅里看《春节联欢晚会》，有的节目很好笑，让我们大家都捧腹大笑。看到一半，爷爷.奶奶就过来发红包给我和弟弟;我们在拿红包时，也不忘给爷爷奶奶拜年。过了不久，爸爸也来发红包给我们。爸爸发完后，又过不久，姑姑，伯父，伯母也都来发红包。渐渐地，我的“荷包”开始膨胀起来，我和弟弟在一旁手舞足蹈，平日里被压缩成渣的钱包，终于有了“出头之日”

但是在这个节庆里，虽然我们小孩子很开心，但是那些大人们都要忙着出去拜年，也要花很多钱来包红包，真是大失血啊!不过我们可大捞了一把，不过这也得感谢我那新生的小妹妹，多亏了她我才有了这么多的钱可捞。

快乐的时光总是短暂的，我的假期也随着大海付之东流，只留下了一箩筐的作业，这下可以大开“杀戒”了。

就这样，离开学的日子越来越近了，寒假生活的点点滴滴，美好的时光，到这里也该结束了。接下来开学后就不能在这么懒散了，该用功的把书读好!把在寒假生活里所发生的美好时光，全都存进去我的脑海里，让他们变成一个美好的回忆!也把我的寒假生活画上了一个完美的句号!

现在，我很苦恼。我买了一本英语书，可是我不知道它的意思。我一点也看不懂。我想，也许我要好好的学习英语。只有这样我才能学会很多知识，才能看懂英语和别人交流。我要对自己说一句：加油！

i was depressed because i couldnt understand an english book after i bought it. i could understand nothing. i thought maybe i should study english hard and only by this could i learn a lot of knowledge and understand english aw well as communicate with others in english. i told myself, ‘just go’.

Why to find suitable for you at the center of the target, you must ask

yourself these questions: where I know I to go and why? I why want to do is do?

What I want to stand and believe what? I get up every morning is for the sake of

what? The things I do every day is for the sake of what? In my life the most

important value? In fact, the reason why you set a goal is far more important

than the goal itself.

Dedicated to the pursuit of their goals and life value is clear why I have

these dreams. They spent a lot of time to think before every important aspect of

his life, they will think about who you are, what they want to do and want to

make what kind of contribution. If you do not have clear goals, also could not

find support for the urgent reason, finish your dream, you cant like

myself.

No dream, no hope, you cant do any meaningful things. If your whole life

just go with the flow, there is no goal that you cannot really love or respect

yourself.

If you just mix one day for a day, every day after work and weekend

holiday, are made with TV and boring dinner party to pass the time, then you

cant get any sense of achievement, there will be no satisfaction, let alone

happiness.

We all need to have a goal to release the full potential. The target is

larger, the greater the can inspire the potential of the. Studies show that many

people are not happy, feel pressure big, like the debate and argumentative,

because cant find meaning in life, goals and direction. They think life is too

boring!

一、掌握日记的正确格式

英语日记与汉语日记的结构相似，主要由两部分组成，即书端和正文。

1.书端（Heading） 英语日记的书端，是专门记载日期、星期和天气的，这一点与汉语日记相同，但在排列上有所不同。英语日记的书端在正文上边的左边（顶格），从左向右推进。

1）英语日期的写法有两种：

（1）先写某日，次写月份，最后写年份。某日用序数词的缩写形式；除May ， June和July三个月份外，其余各月份均可缩写；年份均用阿拉伯数字书写，但不能把“1991”缩写成“91”等。例如：

15th August 1989

（2）先写月份，次写某日，最后写年份。用这种写法比较普遍。某日用基数词，也可用序数词的缩写形式，但后边须加逗号。例如：

August 15，1989

August 15th，1989

如果在英语日记的书端里要写星期的话，可将其写在日期的前面或后面。例如：

Saturday，October 22nd，1983

October 22nd ，1983，Saturday

2）天气情况

如果书端里还要记载那天的天气，只需用少数的词，如“Fin e”“Cloud y”等形容词表示。天气写在日期之后，须用逗号隔开。如果第一行内写不完，也可以移到第二行去写，但第一行内前边要空格，不可与第二行平头。例如：

Saturday，March 4，1988，Fine but windy in the afternoon 常见的天气用语有：

fine 晴天的 rainy 下雨的 cloudy 阴天的，多云的

hot炎热的 shiny 晴朗的 cold寒冷的

snowy 下雪的 freezing冰冻的foggy 雾的

showery 阵雨的 sunshining 晴的，温暖的

sunny 阳光充足的，阳光明媚的 warm 暖和的

windy 刮风的 stormy暴风的 breezy 微风的

cloudy，then rainy 多云转雨的 rainy，fine later雨转晴的

2．正文（Body） 日记是每日生活的记载。生活的内容广泛，但写作时应有所选择，最好是记下当天有意义，感受最深的东西、不可巨细不分地记流水帐。 记日记的手法灵活，形式多样，它常用叙述的方法，可议论、也可抒情和描写；有话则长，无话则短，甚至于三言两语亦可。

值得一提的是日记的时态选择，由于日记记载的事情通常已经发生，因此谓语动词一般用过去时态。然而，根据实际情况，也可用其他时态。例如：

I went to school at seven this morning．When I got to the classroom，the class had begun ．

When I got home，my mother was cooking．

注意：表示习惯性的动作，客观事实、普遍真理、名言或谚语时，常用一般现在时。

All roads lead to Rome．（条条道路通罗马。）

The sun rises in the east and sets in the west．

She is from Beijing．

The cow eats grass but gives milk．——Lu Xun（牛吃的是草，挤出来的是奶。——鲁迅）

一、基础写作训练的方法

1.利用课文的词、句复习，训练学生的组句能力。从词和句入手，将每个单元课文的词和句与基础写作结合起来，是培养和提高学生的英语能力的有效途径。这不仅能帮助提高学生记忆和灵活应用词汇的能力，而且还有助于训练学生语句表达的正确性。

(1)归纳词汇和句型，帮助学生建立对词、句使用的感性认识。写作是一种语言的输出形式，只有大量的语言输入，语言输出才有可能;只有积累了一定的感受和大量的语言素材，写作才有可能进行。为了帮助学生记忆课文中的单词和短语，达到积累语言素材，掌握基本语法知识与语句结构的目的，教师可以从训练学生归纳每个单元课文中出现的重要词汇、短语和常用句型入手，使学生对句型结构的认识更加清楚，并对词、句的使用语境形成感性的认识。

(2)操练词汇和句型，训练学生的记忆和使用词、句的能力。为了使学生掌握和应用课文中所学词汇和句型，教师应为学生创设多层次的练习活动，拓宽写作的训练途径。教师可采用将学生从课文中归纳的词汇、句型进行词类转换、习惯用法、句型转换、完型填空、写短文等形式的训练，帮助提高学生的记忆和使用词、句的能力。

二、借鉴课文词、句进行仿写。

通过提供情景让学生模仿造句，不仅可以降低写作难度，而且可以增加学生写作的兴趣、自信和成就感，使学生的遣词造句的能力在实践中得到提升。

三、借鉴课文句型，训练写作多种表达与技巧，拓展学生思维。

教师在教学实践中会发现，学生在基础写作中往往出现句式雷同、语句呆板、行文单一等现象，缺乏用5个句子有效表达和传输信息的能力。因此，教师就有必要继续进一步加强句子多样化表达、句子转换替代、句子合并等训练，教会学生使用不同的短语、句型结构表达同一的意义;同时，还让学生明白写作的逻辑原则:一个句子表达的信息量越多，而且使用的句子越精练、清楚，那么句意表达和传输信息就越有效。

四、利用课文体裁，训练学生谋篇布局的能力。

教师会发现高三学生在写作中存在的另一个问题是层次不清、结构散乱以及逻辑性不强，这是因为学生缺乏谋篇布局的能力。针对这方面问题，教师可以在教学中利用课文的体裁进行文章结构方面的训练以及进行句子、段落间的连接训练。

My favourite song is a popular song ,its name is Heal the world, Micheal Jackson sang this song.Meanwhile , this song was produced by Micheal.The song is about our worse and worse environment and the cons people on protecting earth..For example from the song ,’heal the world ,make it a better place, for you and for me and the entire human race’I like this lyric very much.I like this song because its melody and content .By this song ,we can realize what about our earth and how we can do in the future.

我最喜爱的歌曲是一首流行歌曲，它的名字是拯救世界，这首歌是迈克尔·杰克逊唱的。同时，这首歌是由迈克尔创作的。这首歌是唱出了我们每况愈下的环境和呵护地球上的利弊......例如，从歌曲“拯救世界，创作发明一个更好的处所为你，为我和整个人类，”我很喜欢这些歌词。我喜欢这首歌，因为它的旋律和内容。通过这首歌，我们意识到在未来对于我们的地球我们可以可以做些什么

The winter holiday is coming. I am very excited. I want to better my

holiday plan. Now let me tell you my plan.

I’m going to read some books and listen to music and relax for a few days

first. On the fifth day, I’m going to do my homework. Of course, I’m also going

to do some housework. Lunar New Year’s Day, I’m going to take a trip with my

parents. I think it must be very happy. I can hardly wait! In the first six days

of February, I’m going to visit my relatives. It’s going to be fun! After a few

days, I’m going to finish my homework, because I am going back to my school on

February 16th.

New Years eve, our family had just finished eating dinner, two little sister began rang: "go wow, firecrackers!" Say that finish, 1 of "miso", jumped out of the chair. Them in one hand and a fireworks, in one hand and a lit incense stick and ran out of the house, I hurried to go out.

The street, "clicks" embrace life, air flashing dazzling spark. Families of lights. Golden yellow and yellow-green window, in the flickering spark, as if into running a TV set, there is a wonderful program!

Suddenly, the front light flash, then the fist big round ball, one by one to fly to the sky, red, yellow, green... According to the street brightness.

Sister saw, loudly shout: "elder sister, whats this?"

"This is called flash gun, can be fun." I said, "put out, and then there were a nude!" The words sound just fell, she shouted: "elder sister, we put a fireworks and they compare!" Say that finish put a fireworks upright on the stone bench. Firecrackers is a half feet tall, thumb so thick, is made of kraft paper roll, like candles. We use incense lit the fuse, fuse "bursts" bursts to emit white smoke, then "brush", a pillar of fire to give them enough, through more than ten meters high, the colorful spark to scatter around, like snowflakes are falling again, to the eye.

After a while, neighbors came out to the firecrackers. "Beginning" and "banging" "dong kuang" have been ringing off the hook.

It was firecrackers sound bowed out, every family to meet the New Year!

除夕夜，我们一家刚吃完年夜饭，两个小妹妹就嚷开了：“走哇，去放爆竹喽!”说完，就“噌”的一声，跳下了椅子。她们一手拿着爆竹，一手拿着点燃的卫生香，跑出了家门，我也急忙跟了出去。

街上，“劈劈啪啪”的抱住生接连不断，空中闪烁着耀眼的火花。家家户户灯火通明。金黄色和黄绿色的窗户，在忽明忽暗的火花中，好像变成了一台台电视机，正在播放精彩的节目呢!

忽然，前面亮光一闪，接着拳头大的圆火球，一个接着一个飞向天空，红、黄、绿……照得大街通亮。

妹妹一见，就大声喊：“姐，这是什么?”

“这叫闪光炮，可好玩了。”我说，“放完了，还剩个长筒呢!”话音刚落，她又喊起：“姐，我们放一个花炮和他们的比一比!”说完就把一个花炮直立在石台上。花炮有半尺高，大拇指那么粗，是用牛皮纸卷的，像支蜡烛。我们用香火点燃了导火线，导火线就“哧哧”地冒白烟，紧接着就“刷”的一声，一股火柱冲天而起，窜出十几米高，五颜六色的火花向四周散开，又像雪花一样纷纷下落，好看极了。

不一会儿，邻居们也都出来放爆竹了。“劈劈啪啪”“乒乒乓乓”“咚——哐”的声音一直响个不停。

这真是爆竹声声辞旧岁，家家户户迎新春!

My winter holiday was very interesting.as that day I got back to my native hometown,cousins and cousines took me to ski.My skiing skill isnt well,got down for 15 times,they laughed at me behind,I cant help smiling too.

The day of spring festival was the most happiness day,we had meal for the first,a table of delicious food,that made me so glad.then we played the fireworks.The childrens waving the lightening ticket while watching the adults playing the fireworks.that was so beautiful!like the stars rainning down the world.at the end,it was time to get the red bag.

We were very exciting,and satisfied.sometimes,we also go shopping and buying something we like.

Winter holiday life was really abundant!

Last autumn we took a trip to Qianshan by bus. It is about thirty miles from the city. We planned to put up in a hotel there in order to watch the sun rise the next morning.

As soon as we got there, we began to climb up the mountains. How great the sight is! We felt as if we had entered amother world full of beauty, peaeefulness and loveliness. There are hundreds of mountains, one after another. there are magnificent cliffs, one above another. We climbed up vigorously and breathed the fresh air greedily. As the sun was going down, we descended to a little hotel at the foot of the hill, where we had a big dinner, and then went to bed early so as to regain the energy ior the expedition next morning.

Before daybreak, we reached the peak of the highest mountain after a hard groping and climbing in the dark. Unaware of the cold wind, we stood motionlessly, with our eyes fixing at the hr end of the east. Suddenly thin ravs of red hue spread across the sky. As the redness deepened, some mysterious clouds moved across thc sky, dividing heaven from the earth. Just at this moment, up from the brightening far east rose the sun. It was so red and yet so tender that we could gaze at it with naked eyes. and a slight applause from us. the amazed spectators, rang through the peak. Up, up it rose, adding to itself strength and glory at every step. It dazzled with vigour, driving away darkness, cold, and misery from the earth, and bring light, warmth, and happiness to men.

We were completely amazed at the wonder and the greatness of nature. We jumped and shouted like innocent children and we bathed in the first rays of the sun with the peak till it was time for our return.

With the general standard of living improvingand the working week becoming shorter，more andmore people are able to make a holiday trip toplaces of interest. While many like to joinpackage tours fro convenience，I prefer to traveln my own.

I like travelling on may own not only because it costs much less but because it gives a great degree of independence and freedom. Travelling on my own，I’m my own boss;and can decide when to start on my way，where to linger a little longer and which spot can be skipped over to save energy or time for another spot. I can always adjust my plan. On the contrary，in a package tour you’re deprived of as much freedom as in a military base. At the sound of the whistle，you have to jump up from a sound sleep and，with heavy-lidded eyes，hurry to the gathering place where you are collected and counted to board a coach. At the sight of the little flag waving，you must immediately take yourself away from the scenes you are marveling at and follow the guide whose sole interest is to cover all spots according to him strict schedule，regardless of the weather or your health condition.

True，you may encounter inconveniences if you travel individually，for instance，getting accommodations for the night and finding a place for meals. But nothing can be compared with the freedom which is vital to a person who takes a holiday trip mainly to escape from constraints of his routine life.

It was the first day of our winter vacation. All of us were very happy. Why? Because we have one months to do things we love to do. We are free. Although we have some homework. But we can finish them in several days. And the rest time we can make good use of. My god! We have been very tired after hard studying. In winter vacations, I want to have full sleep and eat good food in order to replenish myself. Last but not the least, I will have a good rest.
