今天是元宵节，是我盼望已久的节日，因为这一天我可以吃元宵，放爆竹，看烟花。“吃元宵啦!”妈妈手里端着热气腾腾的元宵，嘴里高兴地叫着，元宵象征着一家人团团圆圆，生活像元宵一样蜜甜，我嚼着绵绵的、沙沙的黑芝麻元宵，真是美在碗里，甜在心里。

吃过元宵，我们一家人便欢快的来到街上看烟花，街上的人真多呀，像潮水一样从四面八方涌来，各个脸上洋溢着节日的喜悦，我们随着人流来到文化广场，这里是看烟花的好地方，只听见“嗖”的一声，一朵大菊花在空中骤然开放，从花芯中绽放出无数个色彩斑斓的花瓣，顿时把美丽的夜空装饰得更加绚丽多彩，人们不约而同的发出赞叹声;紧接着一朵朵色彩各异的梨花在空中竞先开放，争奇斗艳;又听见“砰”的一声，一个小圆点爆裂了，迸出无数个小圆点，接着无数个小圆点变成了无数个小蘑菇，它们像一个个小伞兵从空中飘落下来，一会儿消失在深邃的夜空中，人们陶醉在了这五彩缤纷的世界里。

看完烟花，我们随着人流开始观花灯，街上的灯真多，使我目不暇接，有十二生宵灯、如来佛灯、观音灯、猪八戒灯、米老鼠灯、脸谱灯、神六飞天灯、奥运福娃灯……加上霓虹灯，把整个临泽城装扮得更加美丽。2008年是鼠年，也是奥运年，花灯的主角是福娃和十二生肖中的鼠，一个个金鼠显得神采奕奕，它那机灵劲真让人好笑，它们好像在说：我老鼠今天也该扬眉吐气了!福娃灯绽放着绚烂的色彩，好像在为奥运键儿加油呢。最引人注目的是县政府门前的两条巨龙灯，它是那么的雄伟壮观，引来了无数摄影爱好者。

正在这时，爸爸叫我去放爆竹，点着爆竹，嗖嗖从竹筒中飞出了一个个“流星”，像天女散花，像火树银花，像流星飞滚，我的梦也想随“流星”飞向蓝天，我一定要好好学习，掌握许多知识，实现我的飞天梦!

“正月十五闹元宵，红红火火过小年”。一年一度的元宵节来临啦！

今年爸爸妈妈带我到南京夫子庙看花灯，走进夫子庙文德桥，映入眼帘的不仅有虎虎生威的虎灯笼，而且还有雪白的兔子灯、吉祥的鸽子灯、金黄色的橘灯……真是各式各样、丰富多彩。把整南京夫子庙元宵节夜晚照的如同白天一样。

花灯展示中心更为漂亮，这儿琳琅满目的花灯使人眼花缭乱，看都看不过来。看那桃灯，粉红的底色，桃尖上涂点红色，桃底有翠绿的大叶子，真是既漂亮又简单。再看那虎灯，制作好框架后，用闪闪发亮的金纸糊住框架，这样，一只栩栩如生的老虎就立刻展现在了眼前。再看那龙灯，追着宝珠上下翻腾，全身的鳞片金光闪闪，龙的尾巴不停地摆动。观看的人们情不自禁地喊：“龙活啦！龙活啦！”还有……真是一言难尽啊！

啊，元宵节，真快乐！

Nowadays, more and more people like to travel in their holidays. The other day I read a report about the ways people spend their holidays. It is reported that in recent yiars several new holiday habits have been developed. Among them, the most interesting one is the growth of the so-called holiday camps.

如今，越来越多的人喜欢在假期旅游。前几天我看了一篇关于人们如何度过他们的假期。据报道，近年来新的假期习惯了。其中，最有趣的是所谓的假期增长。

From the report we can see that in 20XX,40 percent of people stayed at home for holidays. But now the proportion has reduced to 9 percent. More people go out for fun. The proportion of camping and traveling abroad was increasing steadily, from 10 percent in 20XX to 38 percent in 20XX, and 12 percent in 20XX to 26 percent in 20XX respectively. People enjoy the fresh air, clean Water and green hills when they go camping in the suburbs. In 20XX,38 percent people enjoyed going to the seaside while in 20XX only 27 percent prefer to go there. What great changes!

从报告中我们可以看到，在20xx年，百分之40的人在家里度假。但是现在这个比例已经降到百分之9。更多的人出去玩。出去郊游和出国旅行的比例不断增加，从百分之10到百分之38在20XX年20XX年，和百分之12至百分之26分别在20XX年20XX年。人们享受新鲜的空气，干净的水和绿色的山，当他们去郊区露营。在20xx年，百分之38的人喜欢去海边，而在20XX年只有百分之27选择去那里。多么大的变化!

Why did those changes appear? I think there are several reasons. First, it s because people can afford traveling. Second, people prefer to pursue a high-quality and colorful life. Third, their attitudes to relaxation have changed. Less people want to save much money by leading a simple life. In short, peoples living standard today has been rising greatly.

为什么会出现这些变化?我认为有几个原因。第一，因为人们能够负担得起旅游。第二，人们更愿意追求一种高质量、丰富多彩的生活。第三，人们对休闲的态度改变了。越来越少的人想过简朴的生活节省很多钱。总之，人民生活日渐变好。

一年一度的元宵节又要来到了。我就介绍介绍这个元宵节的历史吧。

元宵节农历正月十五。又称上元节、元夜、灯节。相传，汉文帝(前179—前157年)为庆祝周勃于正月十五勘平诸吕之乱，每逢此夜，必出宫游玩，与民同乐，在古代，夜同宵，正月又称元月，汉文帝就将正月十五定为元宵节，这一夜就叫元宵。

吃“汤圆”是元宵节的一项重要习俗。汤圆，又名“汤团”、“元宵”。吃汤圆的风俗始于宋代，生意人则美其名日：“元宝”。宋元元初时，汤圆已成为元宵节的应节食品，所以人们又称它为“元宵”。如今，北方叫元宵，南方称汤圆。元宵依馅论，分有馅和无馅两种，有馅元宵又有咸、甜、荤、素之分。

猜灯谜是元宵节的项目之一。中国最大的一次灯谜盛会是1979年在南京举行的“九城市灯谜会猜”，设有灯谜上万条，3天里参加的人次达两万多人。

还有好多好多的节目呢，说都说不过来了。

总之一句话，今天的元宵节肯定特别热闹。

如今，我已成为了一名中学生，我会用自己的方式把未来初中三年过好的。——题记

在刚去学校的第一天，我虽然还是很不习惯，但我尝试着和自己的舍友交流时，才知道我们七个人是多么的相见恨晚啊。我们仅仅用了四天就建立起了深厚的友谊，我们一起去打饭，一起去教室，一起回宿舍……这都是多么令人兴奋的事啊。每天我和宿舍的成员一起打闹，一起开玩笑，一起讲鬼故事（虽然，我很怕鬼故事）。

小舒我很喜欢画画（业余的，希望以后能转正），所以我就拿了些漫画书和大家分享（偷偷拿的，虽然我知道这种习惯很不好，但我很喜欢模仿别人的画法）。住在我上铺的是一个短发女生，她常喜欢探头或把一只手往下放，在深夜时，绝对会让你吓一跳的，所以我常说“上面有个邪恶的手”。

我和朋友们相处的也很不错（尽管教室很热）。不过可惜的是不能吃零食，所以我常常发愁，如果晚上饿了该怎么办啊。（我消化的太快了，老妈说我是正常人的两倍）。今天我放假回家了，真的很高兴，觉得这一周过得太慢了，可能是因为有点想家了吧。

在未来的时间里，我可能会遇到各种各样的挫折和压力，但我还是会快快乐乐的，我是永远打不死的小强！

新学期开始了，我要有一个更高的目标，一个全新且完美的学习计划。老师曾经说过：五年级是一个极为重要的阶段，绝对不可以有丝毫的放松。

法国军事学家拿破仑说：“不想当将军的士兵不是好士兵。”意思是说每个人应该努力向上，树立远大的理想，争取将来成为一个优秀的人。是的，谁不想把自己变得有出息呢?但是人是不可能不劳而获的，在通往成功的道路上，会留下一串串的脚印。

我的新目标将会像一座大桥，引领我走正确的方向。

在上课的时候，我要认真听讲，不做小动作，不和同学交头接耳，要力争把老师课堂上讲的知识全部印在脑子里。认真完成老师布置的所有作业，做到一丝不苟，作业要按时完成，不拖拉。要做好课前预习，预习生字生词。还要给课文分段，用最简短的语言写出每段大意，总结中心思想。老师让背诵的课文或是段落要背熟，多读课外书，做一个见识广的小少年。节假日参加写作、奥数、英语等课外辅导班的学习，争取每项科目都达到优秀。

千里之行，始于足下。有理想才会有奋斗的目标，为了实现梦想，让我们奋斗吧!

春暖的花开驱赶了冬天的感伤，我们伴春节喜庆的钟声再次踏入了学校的大门。新学期的帷幕为我们拉开了崭新的学习舞台，但是，荣誉的桂冠往往要荆棘编就，成功的道路往往由汗水铺通，征途绝对非一帆风顺。上个学期的欢笑与泪水，成功与失败等都已成为过去式，我们应该放眼未来，洗去心灵的尘埃，拿上我们的武器，整装待发，大步迈向新学期！

在新的学期中，要想成绩攀上更高的山峰，就要为之不懈的努力！一分耕耘一分收获。学习不但是一种兴趣，更是一种责任，是我应该做而且必须做好的事情，学习还会给我们带来副产品——压力。没有苦累的过程，就不会有进步与提升。正是学习中的苦与累缔造出我们加倍努力学习的原动力。无论是过去、现在还是未来这都是永恒不变的定律。再华丽的辞藻都远不及最朴实的行动。我们不可以再做语言的巨人，而是要蜕变为行动的主人。只有真正学会自主学习，成绩才会真正有质的飞跃。

除了知识的摄入外，还有一件很重要的事情，那就是——学会感恩。感恩，是生活中温暖阳光的来源；是彩绘生活的画笔。！“春天来了，我却看不到”这是让人多么心痛的感受。因此，学会感恩是人生路上不可或缺的过程之一。对父母感恩，他们赐予我生命；对老师感恩，他们教会我知识；对朋友感恩，他们给予我帮助；对上天感恩，它在看我做人。让我感恩的热太多，在这我想说一句：我的亲人，我的朋友，不论是熟识的还是陌生的，我都要感谢你们，感谢你们给我的一切一切。学会感恩、知恩图报是中华民族的传统美德，值得我们不断发扬与继承！

书山有路勤为径，学海无涯苦作舟。站在新的起跑线上，我们的目标就在充满希冀的前方。我要加油，在绚丽多彩的初中生活中，好好学习，这是冲刺，面向新的征程，也许会有坎坷，艰险，但我坚信：我一定会战胜一切困难，避过所有的浅滩，到达成功的彼岸！

Everybody knows drinking a little is good to health, but excessive drinking is bad. Those who drink too much may not live long. Excessive drinking may cause many diseases, such as high blood pressure and heart attack. Drinking too much can also result in a series of family problems and social problems, such as the break up of a family and social crimes.

If everyone can keep control over drinking, we can enjoy a more peaceful social environment.

今天是一年一度的元宵节。一说起元宵节大家一定会说起看花灯。这花灯可真是应有尽有，有孔雀灯、大红橘灯、走马灯、天女散花、嫦娥奔月......

元宵节这天，我们一家人在市民广场上!逛着，心里不由得想：这是在遨游天空，还是在梦游仙境?我真不敢相信这是元宵之夜的街市游逛。我在来来往往的人流中穿来挤去，来到最热闹的地方，我站在一个比较高的石台上放眼四望，看见了那典雅的孔雀灯，象征着吉庆的大红橘灯，镶有玻璃镜的走马灯，还有精巧的“天女散花”、“嫦娥奔月”、“武夷风光”......一切都在灯火中放射这绚丽光彩，真让人目不暇接，眼花缭乱。

可是只有灯火实在太单调了!不过，市民广场给人们准备了许多表演，有：舞龙、太极拳，等等。尤其是舞龙最好看。一个生机勃勃的龙头被老爷爷耍得活灵活现。有时候，老爷爷们还把龙头转了几圈。只见出来的是两条巨大的龙，一条是黄色的，另一条是蓝色的，非常漂亮。两条龙在空中吞云吐雾、上下翻腾，不时摆出一个个精彩的造型，引来观众一阵阵热烈的掌声。后来又出来一条金色的龙，它披着金色的外衣，在月亮地照耀下金光闪闪，显得十分壮观。

月亮渐渐西落我依依不舍地离开。但观灯的人还是络绎不绝，各种彩色的灯像天上的繁星一样，大放光彩。真是“一夜花灯醉，只缘春意浓。”
