有那么多的人在谈论他们的母亲有多爱他们，而很少有人意识到他们的父亲有多爱他们。事实上，父亲的爱和母亲的爱一样强烈，但通常情况下，父亲并不善于表达自己的感情。父亲的爱是深沉而沉默的，这就是为什么大多数人认为父亲不那么爱他们。如果你仔细地翻阅童年的记忆，你会注意到你的父亲总是在你需要他们的时候出现，尽管他们从来没有大声说出他们有多么爱你，父亲就像暴风雨来临时的庇护所，父亲就像外面有危险时的门，父亲是一个无论你怎样对待他的人，他都会选择承受一切压力，让你自由。所以请为父亲的爱欢呼吧！

愉快的寒假生活寒假生活就要结束了，回想这三十多天的生活，还真是有很多难忘而又愉快的事。

“过年好!过年好啊!”几声吉祥话第一个飘入我的耳朵里。这就是我这几天寒假生活的最深刻的印象：热闹!大年初一，我从热乎乎的被窝里爬出来，经没有感到任何的寒冷。放眼望去，满村红彤彤的一片——放过的爆竹纸皮、家家高挂的大红灯笼、还有满大家走着的穿着红唐装的乡亲们，喜庆的气氛随之即来。我穿好了衣服，和家人们一起吃热腾腾的早饭。普通的稀粥、咸菜，还有昨夜剩下的饺子，全家人在一起吃，也格外的香。刚吃完饭，就有人过来拜年。他们脸上洋溢着笑容，双手握在一起，向大家拜年，说着吉祥话。走前还往小孩手中塞压岁钱。小孩儿们则是瞪大眼睛，看着大人们推推嚷嚷时红包的位置，最终接到红包以后，也不敢擅自妄为，一切都看父母的眼色行事。

寒假和暑假最大的不同，就是在寒假里会过新年，亲人重聚，享受天伦之乐。今年过年，我远在外地姨、哥哥、弟弟们，都来到了我们家。我们家的人气一下子增高了，并且过了个热热闹闹的兔年。大表哥带回来优异的学业成绩;二表哥带回来适合的工作;小弟也带回来了口才班的学习成果。大家各有所得，互相交流着，十分融洽。这也许就是过年时的特殊气氛吧。

我过了一个愉快，平凡，但有充实的寒假。我乐在其中。

Halloween (or Halloween) is an annual holiday observed on October 31, which commonly includes activities such as trick-or-treating, attending costume parties, carving jack-o-lanterns, bonfires, apple bobbing, visiting haunted attractions, playing pranks, telling scary stories, and watching horror films.

History

Historian Nicholas Rogers, exploring the origins of Halloween, notes that while "some folklorists have detected its origins in the Roman feast of Pomona, the goddess of fruits and seeds, or in the festival of the dead called Parentalia, it is more typically linked to the Celtic festival of Samhain, whose original spelling was Samuin (pronounced sow-an or sow-in)".The name is derived from Old Irish and means roughly "summers end".Snap-Apple Night (1832) by Daniel Maclise.Depicts apple bobbing and divination games at a Halloween party in Blarney, Ireland.The name Halloween and many of its present-day traditions derive from the Old English era.

The word Halloween is first attested in the 16th century and represents a Scottish variant of the fuller All-Hallows-Even ("evening"), that is, the night before All Hallows Day.[4] Although the phrase All Hallows is found in Old English (ealra hālgena mæssedæg, mass-day of all saints), All-Hallows-Even is itself not attested until 1556.

11月1日 -- 万圣节 All Saints Day

11月2日 -- 墨西哥的鬼节 Day of Death

万圣节(All Saints Day, All Hallows Day或Hallowmas) 是每年11月1日的欧美大节日。

Halloween 是 All Hallows Eve 的缩写，万圣节前夜的意思，指10月31日的晚上。

For thousands of years people have been celebrating different holidays and festivals at the end of October. The Celts celebrated it as Samhain (pronounced “sow-in”, with “sow” rhyming with cow)。 The Irish English dictionary published by the Irish Texts Society defines the word as follows:

“Samhain, All Hallowtide, the feast of the dead in Pagan and Christian times, signalizing the close of harvest and the initiation of the winter season, lasting till May, during which troops (esp. the Fiann) were quartered. Faeries were imagined as particularly active at this season. From it the half year is reckoned. also called Feile Moingfinne (Snow Goddess)。(1) The Scottish Gaelis Dictionary defines it as ”Hallowtide. The Feast of All Soula. Sam + Fuin = end of summer.“(2) Contrary to the information published by many organizations, there is no archaeological or literary evidence to indicate that Samhain was a deity. The Celtic Gods of the dead were Gwynn ap Nudd for the British, and Arawn for the Welsh. The Irish did not have a ”lord of death“ as such.

The Celts believed that every year on the last day of October, the souls of the dead visited the earth.www.

When the Romans conquered the Celts in the first century A.D., they added parts of their festivals, Feralia and Pomona to the tradition. Feralia was a festival to honor the dead and Pomona was a harvest festival named after the goddess of fruit (apples) and trees.

Around the eigth century, the Christian church made November 1 All Saints Day to honor all of the saints that didnt have a special day of their own. Over the years these festivals combined, the mass held on All Saints Day was called Allhallowmas (the mass of all Hallows - saintly people)。 The night before was known as All Hallows Eve. Eventually this name became Halloween.

In the 1800s, as a lot of people emigrated to the U.S., the holidays and traditions of different cultures merged. Halloween was not always a happy time. October 31, or the night before took on other names. Some called it Devils or Hell night, to others it was mischief night. Here in Vermont, the night before is called cabbage night. To some people this became a time to play tricks on others. Some of these tricks were not fun at all. Luckily, community groups and individuals took action and started to change Halloween into a family event. Dressing up in costumes and going ”trick or treating“, costume parades, community parties and Fall festivals are some of the ways that Halloween is celebrated today.

Other countries have different Fall festivals to honor the deceased.

The Festival of the Dead is one of the most important happenings in both Palermo and the rest of Sicily. The second of November is a festival day for the children of Palermo as, according to tradition,they were made to believe that their dead relatives would return the night before and leave them traditional sweets and cakes on the table (Martorana fruit, which is almond paste made into the shape of different fruit)。 They would also receive puppets of boiled sugar and toys. Its one way of keeping the memory of their dead relatives and loved ones alive.

一年中最”闹鬼“的这天夜里，各种妖魔鬼怪、 海盗、 外星来客和巫婆们纷纷出动。在基督纪元以前，凯尔特人在夏未举行仪式感激上苍和太阳的恩惠。

当时的占卜者点燃并施巫术以驱赶据说在四周游荡的妖魔怪。后来，罗马人用果仁和苹果来庆祝的丰收节与凯尔特人的10月31日溶合了。

在中世纪，人们穿上动物造型的服饰、 戴上可怕的面具是想在万圣节前夜驱赶黑夜中的鬼怪。尽管後来基督教代替了凯尔特和罗马的宗教活动，早期的习俗还是保留下来了。现在，孩子们带着开玩笑的心理穿戴上各种服饰和面具参加万圣节舞会，这些舞会四周的墙上往往悬挂着用纸糊的巫婆、 黑猫、 鬼怪和尸骨，窗前和门口则吊着龇牙裂嘴或是面目可憎的南瓜灯笼。孩子们还常常试图咬住悬挂着的苹果。

美国和加拿大的孩子们在这天穿戴上古怪的服饰去按邻居家的门铃，并按传统发出”是款待我还是要我耍花招“的威胁。邻居们不管是否被吓着，总是准备了一些糖果、 苹果等点心，孩子们则一一收入自己的袋内。

万圣节其实不是基督教的节日。2500年前，爱尔兰的凯尔特人(Celts)以10月31日为一年的最後一日，11月1日是新一年的开始，也象徵冬天的来临。

凯尔特人相信死亡之神Samhain在10月31日的晚上会和鬼魂一起重返人间，寻找替身。因此他们燃点火炬，焚烧动物以作为死亡之神的献礼。还会用动物的头或皮毛做成的服饰打扮自己，发出古怪的声音，使死亡之神认不出自己，避过灾难。这就是今天万圣节化妆舞会的由来。过了当晚，鬼魂回到阴间，一切回复平静。

基督教兴起，教徒沿袭万圣节传统，万圣节的意义慢慢改为纪念为献身於神而死亡的人(holies)。

附带一提，11月2日是墨西哥的鬼节(Los Dias de los Muertos, Day of the Dead)。当天家家户户都烘烤动物造型的面包和煮鸡肉等食物，并在供桌上面放置玩具，以期待早逝的孩童们回到家中玩耍。也可以陈列鲜花、 水果、 照片和彩绘的骷髅头，接待仙逝长辈。

墨西哥人认为，鬼魂和人一样需要及时行乐，所以鬼节宛若一场嘉年华会，人们带着面具到处游走，吃骷髅形状的糖，面包上还装饰有鬼的形像。黄昏时刻，全家人一起到墓园清理墓地，妇女们或跪或坐整夜祈祷，男人们交谈或唱歌，在子夜中烛光忽闪忽灭充满了整个墓园，游唱歌者为已逝亡者的灵魂高歌吟唱。

今天是国庆节，我、爸爸妈妈、贝贝弟弟和好朋友晴晴还有晴晴的爸爸妈妈一起去山西美乐游乐园玩。我可高兴了。 一路上我们看见了许多高大洁白的大风车。啊，终于到达目的地了。可惜这时已经中午了，我们又去饭店吃饭了，吃完饭以后，就去游乐园了。进到游乐园，我们玩了摩天轮、大战鲨鱼岛、太空漫步、海盗船、激流勇进、阿拉伯飞毯等等等等。

我最喜欢玩的是：海盗船、激流勇进。我没坐海盗船的时候，我觉得没什么了不起的。可坐到海盗船上的时候，我有些担心，往上摇的时候我不算怕，可是下来的时候我的心都卡到嗓子眼上了，我们都大声的喊了出来，这样能缓解一些害怕。

我看着别人玩激流勇进的时候，心里很激动，可是又有点害怕，因为我害怕激流勇进和海盗船一样刺激。排了十几分钟的队，总算可以玩了。刚开始，我们坐在小船上，顺水往下飘，心里想：这有啥好玩的。不料，过了一会小船随着传送带上到了高处，随即像箭一样冲了下去，溅起了一米多高的浪花，弄得我满身是水。可是我的心里很高兴，真想再玩一次。 天渐渐黑了下来，我们要回家了，今天玩的既高兴又刺激。快乐国庆节！

减肥的第一天

今天是我减肥计划的第一天。今天早上，按照计划，我只喝了一杯牛奶燕麦，然后就去学习英语了。到了上午10点钟的时候，我的肚子开始咕咕叫想要吃东西了，我不能集中精神好好学习，满脑子飞过各种各样的美食：汉堡包、饺子、蛋炒饭、煎蛋……经过10分钟的挣扎，我终于忍不住了!我冲进厨房，把所有能吃的食物都吃了!吃完之后，想着自己其实并没有胖到要节食的地步，我最终决定放弃减肥。不过怎么样，我应该继续享受我所认为是世界上最美好的东西——美食。

Yesterday we played happily, but there were only ten people. I remembered

last year there were twenty-two people at all. I heard some my friends had gone

abroad. They went abroad to study. Maybe I couldn’t see them in the future. I

think next year we won’t make a party. Next year is a very important year. We

all will prepare the new term’s new subject.I know, it is the most important for

us now.

昨天，我们高兴地发挥，但只有10人。我记得去年有22人在所有。我听到一些我的朋友已经出国。他们去国外学习。也许我没有看到他们的未来。我想明年我们将不作党。明年是一个非常重要的一年。我们都将编制新的任期的新课程.我知道，这是最重要的是，我们现在。

As an old saying goes, "spring". This semester I have made the new plan.

This semester, Im going to get rid of some bad habits. I am a Chinese representative, but I not to be able to change a bad habit of always: I listen to the class very fast, but when the teacher asked, in fact, I usually can answer up, but I am timid, afraid to bold hands. Even if the teacher said: "wrong it doesnt matter." I still cant raise your hand. So in this semester, I will try to break the following five years of my bad habits.

First of all, Im going to each class at least for one hand, the accumulated, one semester I can correct the bad habit. In this way, the teacher can like me.

Also, this term we mathematics textbooks, other students all have already learned a third, so, I have been a bit behind other students, because of this, I have to work harder, more oil, so my grades will not lag behind. Now, I need to start doing more extracurricular practice, I am determined to not be a problem to beat, I will use my efforts to prove, Ill catch up, let the teacher to me sit up and take notice.

And I want to get rid of a bad temper, is the classmates to ask me questions, I always do their own thing, dont listen to him, I think it is not respect others. From another Angle to think, if I come to ask questions, how sad thing it is being rejected!

I have a flaw, that is, sports is not good, every time to the final, achievement is to pass the exam. Because I at ordinary times less exercise, just cause sports achievement is not good enough, so in this sunny spring, I want to exercise more, to do a good job of the health care. As long as I every day so, I think I should be able to level again.

Ok, dont say, my new term plan to say the last three days and three nights! I have to do now is get rid of bad habits and bad temper, so you can do a cla.

俗话说得好：“一年之计在于春”。这个学期我也制定了新计划。

这个学期呢，我打算改掉一些坏习惯。我是语文课代表，可是我的一个坏习惯总是改不过来：我上课听得很牢，可老师发问时，其实我一般都能答上来，可是我胆小，不敢大胆举手发言。就算老师说：“答错没关系。”我还是不敢举手。所以在这个学期里，我一定要尽力改掉这个跟随我五年的坏习惯。

首先，我打算每堂课至少要举一次手，这样累积下来，一个学期我就可以把这个坏习惯改过来了。这样，老师就可以喜欢我了。

还有，这学期我们的数学课本，别的同学都已经学过三分之一了，所以，我已经比别的同学落后了一点，正因为这样，我一定要更努力，更加油，这样我的学习成绩才不会落后。现在，我要开始做更多的课外练习，我决心不会被一个个难题给打败，我一定会用我的努力证明，我会赶上去的，让老师对我刮目相看。

另外我要改掉一个坏脾气，就是别的同学来问我题目时，我总是管自己做自己的事，不听他的话，我觉得这样就是不尊敬别人。换个角度来考虑，假如是我来问问题，被人拒绝是多么难过的事呀!

我还有一个缺陷，那就是体育不好，每次到了期末，成绩都是及格。因为我平时少锻炼，才导致体育成绩不够好，所以在这个充满阳光的春天，我要多锻炼，做好各项保健工作。只要我天天这样，我想我应该可以再升一级。

好了，不说了，我的新学期计划可以说上个三天三夜呢!我现在要做的就是改掉坏习惯、坏脾气等，这样才可以做一个全优生。

The comedies from Zhou Xingchi are my favorite, no matter how many times I watch them, I just can’t help laughing out loudly. Watching comedy is a good way to relax, it helps me to keep the good mood.

我很喜欢看喜剧，因为喜剧能让我开怀大笑，我也会忘记烦恼。周星驰的喜剧是我最喜欢的，无论我看多少次，我都会情不自禁地笑出来。看喜剧是放松的好方法，它能让我保持好心情。
