爸爸说要带我去梁山游玩，我高兴不已。同样高兴的还有几只可爱的小蚂蚱，它们在我的脚边跳来跳去，好像以为我会带着它们一起去似的。

我和爸爸来到了梁山，经历了很多新奇有趣的事情。最令我难忘的便是在我下山的时候，我和爸爸在一旁休息，几只黑黑的蚂蚁爬到我的黑皮鞋上。它们或许以为我的脚是一辆黑色的小汽车，以为我能够把它们带到北京去。难道它们和那几只小蚂蚱是好朋友么。

我们在梁山看到一个深深的小洞。我问爸爸这是什么?爸爸说：“这是孙二娘的脚印。”我奇怪的问爸爸：“爸爸，孙二娘的脚印不会有这么深吧?”爸爸说，“可能是孙二娘练武的地方”。

我们又往前走，看到一块大石头上面写着“黑风口”三个大字，书上说这是李逵把守的地方，我看见大石头旁边雕刻着黑旋风李逵的塑像，他威风凛凛的站在那里，他手握两把斧子，仿佛在说：“哪个坏蛋敢来我就把他干掉，我就看看哪个鸟人不怕死!”

最后，我们来忠义堂，看到天空中挂着一面黄底黑字的旗子，上面写着“替天行道”，我进了正面的屋子看到宋江坐在中间，他的左边是吴用，右边是卢骏义，书上说吴用和卢骏义是宋江的左膀右臂，我们非常崇拜宋江，就给宋江恭恭敬敬磕了一个头。两侧的房子里有梁山好汉的塑像，有打虎英雄武松、豹子头林冲、黑旋风李逵、青面兽杨智、花和尚鲁达、还有阮氏三兄弟，一个个形态各异，栩栩如生。

看完了，我们就来到山脚下去闯关了，穿过吊桥，再爬网山，过独木桥，走迷宫，好不容易到了二关，二关是当年武松和鲁智深把守的地方。然后我们去看战船，战船可大了，都有两层楼那么高。

最后，我们又去了动物园，看到了可爱的小白鸽和顽皮的小猪趴在妈妈身边，还有美丽如仙的丹顶鹤和小鸭子在水里追逐游戏。看完动物，我们就坐上公共汽车，唱着歌，心情美美的回家了。

Yesterday when Susan was waiting for the bus at a bus stop, she saw a purse

lying on the ground. She picked it up and opened it. In it was some money and a

telephone card. She wanted to find out who lost it. So she went to a public

telephone and dialed the number on the card. Fortunately someone answered the

phone. When the lady came and got back her purse,she thanked Susan for her good

deed.

When cellphone became popular many years ago, parents and school at first

banned students to take cellphone into classroom, but now, even the small child

has owned a cellphone. The use of cellphone cant be banned. For students, they

get used to keeping cellphone at hand, but the overuse of it can be blamed to

their parents. Some parents dont set good examples for their children. When

they are together, they just leave cellphones to kids and let them kill the

time. If they show the beautiful scenery around and teach kids to appreciate the

world. Then cellphone wont take up their time.

Maybe you have never been there before, its well known for the hot springs there.

In 2003, I got the highest score in the College Entrance Examinations in my city and entered Zhongshan University. My major is Computer Science. My GPA ranks in the top 40% among all students, but I have stronger C programming skills than many others. Also, I was the first one to learn Java in my class.

I was chosen by a teacher of mine to participate in his project. The project was about a LAN chat room, and I developed the instant messaging system in it. I was the only female student in this project team.

Besides study and the project, I worked in the Student Union for two years, first year as a member, next year promoted to be the General Secretary. My colleagues describe me as a reliable and considerate person.

After Viewing Impressions about Travel Notes of A f Fying House

Last Sunday , I saw a movie named Travel notes of a flying house.This movie is very interesting and I like it very much.

The movie mainly talked about that a little boy with a flying dream grew with a little girl with the same dream,and then they got married,grow old together. Until the hostess Eli dead, didnt they finish the flying dream of wonderland waterfall. Finally one day, the 78 years old’s Mr Carr built a flying home, flew away to the fairyland waterfall, and there occurred many amazing and moving stories.

The film, tells me three truth. First of all, people should have a dream and pursuit.Only in this way will you have spirit,as for the single-minded pursuit of dreams and perseverance, then do you have a fight. Secondly, the difficulties are not invincible, but you have not the courage to face, to challenge.I believe that as long as face them bravely, you will be able to get victory and successful.

Finally, there is nothing more powerful than the power of love.when are we in the most difficult time, only the family, let us all unite with each other, let us be fearless, and so as to win.

A folk culture is a small isolated， cohesive， conservative， nearly self-sufficient group that is homogeneous in custom and race with a strong family or clan structure and highly developed rituals. Order is maintained through sanctions based in the religion or family and interpersonal. Relationships are strong. Tradition is paramount， and change comes infrequently and slowly. There is relatively little division of labor into specialized duties. Rather， each person is expected to perform a great variety of tasks， though duties may differ between the sexes. Most goods are handmade and subsistence economy prevails. Individualism is weakly developed in folk cultures as are social classes. Unaltered folk cultures no longer exist in industrialized countries such as the United States and Canada. Perhaps the nearest modern equivalent in Anglo America is the Amish， a German American farming sect that largely renounces the products and labor saving devices of the industrial age. In Amish areas， horse drawn buggies still serve as a local transportation device and the faithful are not permitted to own automobiles. The Amish＇s central religious concept of Demut "humility"， clearly reflects the weakness of individualism and social class so typical of folk cultures and there is a corresponding strength of Amish group identity. Rarely do the Amish marry outside their sect. The religion， a variety of the Mennonite faith， provides the principal mechanism for maintaining order.

By contrast a popular culture is a large heterogeneous group often highly individualistic and a pronounced many specialized professions. Secular institutions of control such as the police and army take the place of religion and family in maintaining order， and a money-based economy prevails. Because of these contrasts， "popular" may be viewed as clearly different from "folk". The popular is replacing the folk in industrialized countries and in many developing nations. Folk-made objects give way to their popular equivalent， usually because the popular item is more quickly or cheaply produced， is easier or time saving to use or leads more prestige to the owner.

there are some voices claiming lei feng’s spirit has gone out of style in today’s society。 they reason that in commodity economy people should seek more practical things， such as fame， money and the comfortable life。 to them nothing is more important than those things， which is often regarded as the views of the present generation。

there are some other voices claiming that the spirit of lei feng still has an enormous echo in millions of chinese people。 the great soldier’s story has such a strong influence on people’s ideas， values and ways of life that in every field of society there arise countless “living lei fengs”， who follow the example of lei feng and serve the people heart and soul。

in my opinion， the spirit of lei feng will never be out of date。 instead， it has been brought forward。 today more and more “lei fengs” are coming forth from various circles among whom “xu hu” has already set a good example to the whole nation。 the spirit of lei feng---an unselfish spirit will always encourage us to go forward。

Long, long ago, on a cross the ocean, there is a father with a 6 years old and his wife and son to the United States.

There are many rules in our school.

From Monday to Friday，we have to get to school before 7：00 in the morning.

We must wear school uniforms，and I think it is good for us because uniforms can

make us look smart. We must listen to our teachers carefully in class and finish

our homework after school. We are not allowed to use mobile phones in class. I

think the rules are very strict but useful，and we should follow them. However，we

have so much homework that we have little free time to do what we love to

do.

In my opinion，we should have more free time to take part in all kinds of

activities and improve our abilities.

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."

My father, Winston Churchill, began his love affair with painting in his 40s, amid disastrous circumstances. As First Lord of the Admiralty in 1915, he was deeply involved in a campaign in the Dardanelles that could have shortened the course of a bloody world war. But when the mission failed, with great loss of life, Churchill paid the price, both publicly and privately. He was removed from the admiralty and effectively sidelined.

Overwhelmed by the catastrophe — “I thought he would die of grief,” said his wife, Clementine —he retired with his family to Hoe Farm, a country retreat in Surrey. There, as Churchill later recalled, “The muse of painting came to my rescue!”

Wandering in the garden one day, he chanced upon his sister-in-law sketching with watercolors. He watched her for a few minutes, then borrowed her brush and tried his hand. The muse had cast her spell!

Churchill soon decided to experiment with oils. Delighted with this distraction from his dark broodings, Clementine rushed off to buy whatever paints she could find.

For Churchill, however, the next step seemed difficult as he contemplated with unaccustomed nervousness the blameless whiteness of a new canvas. He started with the sky and later described how “very gingerly I mixed a little blue paint on the palette, and then with infinite precaution made a mark about as big as a bean upon the affronted snow-white shield. At that moment the sound of a motor car was heard in the drive. From this chariot stepped the gifted wife of Sir John Lavery .”

“ ‘Painting!’ she declared. ‘But what are you hesitating about? Let me have the brush — the big one.’ Splash into the turpentine, wallop into the blue and the white, frantic flourish on the palette, and then several fierce strokes and slashes of blue on the absolutely cowering canvas.”

At that time, John Lavery— a Churchill neighbor and celebrated painter— was tutoring Churchill in his art. Later, Lavery said of his unusual pupil: “Had he chosen painting instead of statesmanship, I believe he would have been a great master with the brush.”

In painting, Churchill had discovered a companion with whom he was to walk for the greater part of the years that remained to him. After the war, painting would offer deep solace when, in 1921, the death of the mother was followed two months later by the loss of his and Clementine’s beloved three-year-old daughter, Marigold. Battered by grief, Winston took refuge at the home of friends in Scotland, finding comfort in his painting. He wrote to Clementine: “I went out and painted a beautiful river in the afternoon light with crimson and golden hills in the background. Alas I keep feeling the hurt of the Duckadilly (Marigold’s pet name).”

Historians have called the decade after 1929, when the Conservative government fell and Winston was out of office, his wilderness years. Politically he may have been wandering in barren places, a lonely fighter trying to awaken Britain to the menace of Hitler, but artistically that wilderness bore abundant fruit. During these years he often painted in the South of France. Of the 500-odd canvases extant, roughly 250 date from 1930 to 1939.

Painting remained a joy to Churchill to the end of his life. “Happy are the painters,” he had written in his book Painting as a Pastime, “ for they shall not be lonely. Light and color, peace and hope, will keep them company to the end of the day.” And so it was for my father.

我的父亲，温斯顿·丘吉尔，在他四十多岁时开始迷恋上绘画，当时环境异常恶劣。那是在1915年，任海军大臣的他，积极投身于在达达尼尔海峡的一场战役中，这场战役本可以缩短那段血雨腥风的世界大战。但由于遭受失败，伤亡惨重，丘吉尔于公于私都付出了代价。他被从海军部调离且实则坐起了冷板凳。

在灾难的折磨下——他的妻子克莱门廷说：“我想他会痛苦而死，”——他携家带口来到萨利郡的一处乡间静居霍·华姆。在那儿，丘吉尔后来回忆道，“是绘画中的冥思拯救了我！”

一天他在花园散步时，偶然看到他的弟媳在用水彩作画。他观察了几分钟，然后向她借了画笔并一试身手。他的专注仿佛给他施了魔法！

丘吉尔很快就决定试试去画油画。看到他从阴暗的忧郁思中解脱出来，克莱门廷非常开心，她赶忙去买所有能买到的颜料。

然而，迈出下一步似乎有些困难，因为丘吉尔看到一块新画布的洁白无暇时感到无所适从和为难。他先从天空画起，后来他描述如何“非常谨慎地在调色板上加入一点儿蓝色调，然后以万分的小心，在这块被蓄意冒犯的雪白的防护板上点上豌豆大的一笔。这时，传来一阵驾驶机动车的马达声。约翰·拉威利先生才华出众的太太从这辆车中姗然而下。

“‘在画画呀！’她高声说着。‘可你还在犹豫什么呢？给我那支笔——那支头号的。’只见松油飞溅，她在蓝白颜料间挥毫泼墨，在调色板上龙飞凤舞，接着在吓得发皱的油画布上用力东戳西捣几下蓝色。”

那时，约翰·拉威利——丘吉尔的邻居，也是一位有名的画家—正教丘吉尔学画。后来提及他的这位特殊的学生，拉威利说：“倘若他选择绘画而不是从政，我相信他会是位绘画大师的。”

在绘画中，丘吉尔找到了能陪他度过余生大部分时光的知已。战后，在1921年，母亲刚去世两个月，他和克莱门廷就失去了他们深爱着的三岁女儿玛丽戈尔德，这时作画给了他一些安慰。在痛苦的打击下，温斯顿来到苏格兰朋友们的家中以求得安慰，用绘画来解脱自己。他在给克莱门廷的信中说：“我出外画了一条夕阳下美丽的溪流，背后映衬着晚霞的群山。唉，达克迪莉（玛丽戈尔德的昵称）使我的苦痛总是挥之不去。

史学家把1929年后的十年，也就是保守党政府垮台而温斯顿下台的时间，称为他的荒凉岁月。政治上，他一直在举步维艰的处境中徘徊，是一个孤独的勇士在努力唤起受到希特勒威胁的国人，但在艺术上他在那荒凉岁月却硕果累累。这些年他经常在法国南部作画。在现存的500多张油画中，大约250张是1930至1939年间的作品。

绘画给丘吉尔带来了乐趣直到他的人生尽头。在他所著的《画中的消遣》里说：“画家其乐融融，因为他们不会孤独。光与色，和平与希望，会始终伴随他们。”我父亲就是这样一个人。

[温斯顿·丘吉尔:生活侧记-名人传记英文故事

The oceanside community of Lozano Beach is debating whether to allow homeowners to rent out their homes on a weekly basis during the summer. Such rentals produce high incomes for the owners and the city, which gets part of this income through a 15-percent surcharge to the owner. “This can be a boon to our coffers,” said Rick Brown, city manager. “In the summer, homeowners can bring in $2,000 a week or more.”

However, these rentals can also be a can of worms. The city stopped allowing weekly rentals 10 years ago because of the problems they were generating. Two, three, or even four families would pile into a two- or three-bedroom house. Then they would park their cars on the lawn and produce huge amounts of trash. Sometimes they would toss this trash on the streets and sidewalks.

Noise would be another problem. Some people would party late and loud every night. This abuse created a lot of friction with neighbors and resulted in extra work for city maintenance crews and for police, who had to respond almost hourly to residents’ complaints about noise, music, trash, and parking problems. But now, the city’s budget problems are making it reconsider its ban.

City officials will hold a community meeting next week to listen to the pros and cons. One official has already suggested a proposal. He thinks that a fine might work. If the city has to respond to complaints, the homeowner will be charged $200 per response. Such a fine might cause the homeowner to be careful to rent only to people that he is sure will be considerate of the neighbors. The city would still get 15 percent of the rental fee, even if the homeowner’s rent were totallyoffset by fines. The city would post inconsiderate renters’ names on the city website so that other homeowners would know about them.

Some officials think the ban should be continued because these visitors to the community have already proven that they have no consideration for others. Their money isn’t worth the headaches they cause.

Halloween means Hallows Evening.It is the evening before All Hallows Day (now called All SaintsDay) ,a Christian holiday,celebrated on the November 1st.

History traces Halloween back to the ancient religion of the Celtics.The Celts were the ancestors of the present-day Irish,Welsh and Scottish people.In the 5th century BC,in Celtic Ireland,summer officially ended on October 31st.On the November 1st,Celtic peoples celebrated the festival of Samhain,which marked the beginning of winter and the Celtic New Year.Celts thought the division between the natural world and the supernatural world became very thin and all time and space was abruptly suspended on October 31st,and then the spirits of the died would come back and move freely looking for living bodies to possess.

放假时间，最好出去游玩放松心情。下面小编带来的是重庆一日游英文作文，希望对你有帮助。

This winter holiday, our family has been driving to a beautiful mountain city in Chongqing.

As soon as we arrived in Chongqing, we understood why Chongqing was called "mountain city". "Mountain city", as the name suggests, is built on the mountain in the city, and the Chengdu plain is completely different, feeling a lot of thought to plan. Its a bit like terrain of rolling hills, most of the house is located on the hillside, there are many overpasses and tunnels. By the way, because the Yangtze River passes through Chongqing, so many bridges have been built, although it is a little messy, but it does not lose their personality.

On the first night in Chongqing, we tasted the authentic Chongqing hot pot. Chongqing is really the birthplace of the real hot pot, a lot of red hot pepper is full of the whole pot, so people can not imagine how hot it is. Although the Chongqing hot pot does not add oyster oil, but it is not less than the Chengdu hot pot. I caught a piece of cooked tofu, smell the smell, naturally ran into my nose; a bite, feel soft; swallow it down my throat and slide down, finally landed in a corner of my stomach, feel itchy, fresh and delicious. Without the slightest greasy feeling. Its delicious!

After eating hot pot, we went to a "tree" in Nanshan. "A tree" is located at the highest level in Chongqing, where we can have a beautiful view of Chongqing. Look, that is the central business building, touch the sky, standing on the edge of the Yangtze River; see, it is located in downtown Monument for Liberation, quietly; see, the light lamp glimmered in the distance, continue to spread around, busy high streets and back lanes, brilliantly illuminated! Look, the lights like salute "karaok" and "bomb", then a bunch of a beam like rocket like, fly to the sky, with the whole of Chongqing, red, yellow, blue, green, purple, more eye-catching in the dark background.

Ah! The beautiful Chongqing is like a city of no night!

......

On the morning of the third day, we departed from the beautiful mountain city of Chongqing with a feeling of satisfaction and very unable to part.

今年寒假，我们全家自驾车到美丽的山城。

刚到重庆，我们便明白了重庆为什么被称为“山城”。“山城”，顾名思义，就是建在山上的城市，和完全不同，感觉很费了些心思来规划。它的地形有点像连绵起伏的小山丘，房子大多数都座落在山坡上，有很多的立交桥和隧道。对了，因为长江穿过重庆，所以还建了很多过江大桥，虽然有点凌乱，但也不失个性。

来重庆的第一天晚上，我们便尝到了正宗的。重庆真是名副其实的火锅发源地，一大堆火红的就占满了整个锅，让人都不敢想象它到底有多辣。虽然没有加，但也丝毫不比成都火锅逊色。我夹了一片煮熟的豆腐干，闻一闻，那香味自然而然地就跑进了我的鼻子；咬一口，觉得软软的；吞下去，它便顺着我的喉咙滑下去，最后落在了我肚子的某个角落里，感觉痒痒的，清爽可口，却没有丝毫的油腻感。好吃极了！

吃完火锅，我们便去了南山的“一棵树”，“一棵树”位于重庆地势最高处，在这里可以将美丽的重庆尽收眼底。看，那是中央商务大楼，高耸入云，矗立在长江边上；看，那是，静静地座落在市中心；看，远处闪烁着的那几盏射灯，不断地向四周扩散开来，繁华的大街小巷，灯火辉煌！看，那信号灯似的礼炮“咻咻咻”、“轰轰轰”，一束接着一束，像火箭筒似的，飞向天空，装点着整个重庆，红的、黄的、蓝的、绿的、紫的，在黑夜的衬托下变得更加绚丽夺目。

啊！美丽的重庆真像是一座不夜城！

……

在第三天早晨，我们怀着恋恋不舍而又十分满足的心情离开了美丽的山城重庆。

Dear Sir,

I am a December 2003 graduate from the University of San Francisco (USF)

with a bachelors degree in International Business. As part of my career

planning, I am very interested in supplementing my international business

education with a basic knowledge of the Chinese language. This I hope will help

me enter into business commerce with business organizations partnering with

Chinas economic development.

I already have information from BLCU and hope to study there for at least

one full year starting with this summers program continuing through the fall

and spring semester 2006. Can your office advise me if such scholarships might

be available to me?

I have been studying Chinese for one year now. I am not sure what level I

belong to. I was told that there will be an HSK test in our university in

September. I am planning to attend the test. But I dont know if the result of

the test is recognized by your university. If so, can it be a help for me to

apply for the scholarship?

I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Yours faithfully,

Tom Jolly

Samantha, like many renters, is tired of renting. One reason is that her annual rent goes up like clockwork. Every year her landlord raises the rent five percent. Another reason is her neighbors. “New neighbors always seem to be more inconsiderate than the ones who moved out,” she said. “My first neighbor was a door-slammer; I always knew when he came home or left home. After he moved out, a saxophonist moved in. A saxophonist! He practiced two hours a day. On Saturday his friends would come over and I’d get to listen to a whole band. I called the police, but they said saxophone playing is permitted in apartments for up to four hours a day, because saxophone playing is job-related. They told me I was lucky that the guy was only playing two hours a day!”

There are many unhappy renters, but there are also happy renters. “I’ve been lucky my whole life,” said Howard, a middle-aged man. “My neighbors couldn’t have been any better if I had picked them myself. One neighbor was a chef. He’d bring me the best leftovers in the world. Another neighbor was a pianist. She played the most delightful music. Another neighbor was a mechanic who did my tune-ups and changed the oil in my car. My latest neighbor is a birder; we go birding every weekend with our binoculars.”

Different persons have different attitudes. Samantha saw the saxophone player as irritating, yet Howard saw the piano player as delightful. Millions of people would be happy just to have a roof over their head. Yet there are millions who would complain that their roof is the wrong color.

How is it going these days? I keep wondering how you feel about your school

life in Beijing. Have you got used to the life in China? Are you enjoying your

So I’m busy preparing for it. But now I have some difficulty in collecting

useful information and using proper English word to express my thoughts.

Besides, I really want to improve my spoken English, especially the

Dear Mr. Wang,

Thank you for taking the time to write your wonderful letter in support of MCEA (Maywood Chinese Education Association). Your letter clearly articulates all the major reasons children in Maywood will benefit from studying the Chinese language as part of their elementary school education. It provides invaluable support that will help making bilingual Chinese education a reality in Maywood public schools.

Although MCEA would like to see Palo Alto public schools implement the first bilingual Chinese kindergarten class in September of 2006, we have learned that the school district must take the time to understand how a new program will affect existing educational offerings, and to validate community interest. Nevertheless, MCEA, with more than 70 members, will continue to actively promote bilingual Chinese education in the Palo Alto public schools and will keep you apprised of the progress we make.

Thanks again for sending a letter in support of MCEA. We will continue to do all we can to realize this program both for families of Chinese descent and those with a general interest in participating in the growing economic power of China.

Yours sincerely,

George Chen
