I live in a city, since I was small, I witnessed all the things happened in this city. Now, in my eyes, after so many years, the city has changed so much. First, the transportation has become fluent.

Many years ago, there were less bus stations, people always needed to changed their lines by many cars.

But now, almost all the places can be reached by bus, people don’t need to change the line. Second, the buildings are enlarging, this reflects the city’s economy develops fast.

Indeed, I can go to many newly built public places to have fun, some are for children, some are for the old, all of these are good for people’s communication. The city’s change reflects people keep pace with time.

我住在一个城市，当我很小的时候，我目睹了发生在这个城市的一切事情。现在，在我眼里，交通变得便利。很多年以前，公共汽车站点很好，人们总是需要通过换车来改变路线。现在，几乎所有的地方都可以通过公交车到达，人们不用改变路线。第二，建筑正在扩大，这反映了一个城市经济的快速发展。确实，我可以去很多新建的公共场所玩，一些是给孩子的，一些是给老人家的，所有的这些对于人们的交流是有用的。城市的改变反映了人们与时俱进。

Today the quality of our natural environment has become an important issue.

The world population is rising so quickly that the world has become too crowded.We are using up our natural resources and at the same time polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals.

If we continue to do this,life on earth cannot survive.Concerned people have made some progress in environmental protection.

Governments of many countries have established laws to protect the air,forests and sea resources and to stop environmental pollution.Still more measures should be taken to solve environmental problems.

People should be further educated to recognize the importance of the problems,to use modern methods of birth control,to conserve our natural resources and recycle our products.

We are sure that we can have a better and cleaner place in the future.

动物与我们人类一样，有思想，有感情，也有它们自己的生活方式，更有自由权。

Animal and human, thoughts, feelings, have their own way of life, more freedom.

我们不应该去破坏他们安详和谐的生活，我们也无权去破坏他们的生活，当然，更没有理由去指责伤害他们。

We should not go to destroy their peaceful and harmonious life, we have no right to destroy their life, of course, theres no reason to blame them.

每当我们的饭桌旁摆上一道道香喷喷的菜，比如：蛇、青蛙、等动物。我们是不是应该想一想，我们每吃一种动物，就等于放走了多少对农民对庄家有害的虫。我们更是不是也应该换位思考一下，它们都在齐心协力的抓害虫，可人类不但不领情，反而把它们当做他们的食物，当作我们人类每天赚钱的东西，他们是多么可恶呀!

When we put on the table a tasty dish, such as: snake, frog, and other animal. We Shi Bushi should think, each of us to eat an animal, is tantamount to let go of the number of farmers to the harmful insects. We Shi Bushi should also think about, they all make concerted efforts to catch insects, human can not only do not appreciate, but put them as their food, as we human beings to make money every day things, how they are hateful!

如今，地球上的许多生物已经很罕见了，甚至有的已经濒临灭绝了!如果地球上没有了动物，地球将会变成什么样，人类又将会变成什么样?

Now, a lot of life on earth is very rare, and even some on the verge of extinction! If there were no animal, the earth will become what, and humans will become what?

我想，是我们人类好好反省的时候了，如果再这样下去的话，我们将会成为动物们的敌人了，更别谈什么“与狼共舞”

I think, when we reflect on the human, if this goes on, we will be the animal enemies, not to mention what "dances with wolves"

人类，快点醒醒吧!保护野生动物，现在开始，还来得及!

Man, come on come on! The protection of wild animal, now, before it is too late!

good care of her children and keeps them all at school. I have one brother and

two sistets. So she gets four children in all. She gives us every comfort. We

all love her and she loves us also.

My mother has too much to do in bringing us up. As our family is too poor

to keep a servant, my mother has always to do very much work. She gets up very

early and sleeps very late every day. She works hard, yet without

complaining.

She is also a thrifty, and industrious woman. She saves every cent that she

can and keeps everything in order. As she has been busy eversince she was young,

she looks older than she really is. Her face is wrinkled, her hair becomes

silver white, but she works as hard as ever.

Often she says to us, "work while you work, play while you play. If you do

not work, you will become lazy and of no use to society." What piece of good

advice this is! We must worth it well and always keep it in our mind.

Nowadays it is common to encounter a scene when people want to see things

happen but can‘t make things happen for various reasons. The most important

reason is that they just refuse to create and innovate. With the accelerated

pace of our society,more and more people recognize the importance of creation

that is bound to make a difference in social productivity.

As far as I am concerned,we should all have the notion of being the

participants of supporting creation. First of all,creation is the most vital

factor to improve the inner competitiveness of our nation. For another,it is

certain that creation is so essential that enables many people to find their

positions in the company and careers in their lives.

Measures are also needed to encourage creation . First and foremost,the

government should establish certain rules to sweep up the obstacles of

invention. Some people have already complained much about complicated procedure

of patent applications or high fees to do experiments of inventions.

Additionally,high schools and universities can provide students with

scholarships or overseas learning opportunities,which will stimulate more

youngsters to join the group of invention and innovation.

Today we stay at home and not go to class. Do you know why? By the way, it is just because of the fog.

Haze? Nanjing and other places of dust is overmuch, combined with the dust and fog, becomes the haze, inhaled into people get lung disease, asthma and other respiratory diseases.

Recently, pm2.5 is close to the extraordinary, in nanjing today at 3 o clock in the morning, pm2.5 has reached 466 micrograms of a cubic meters, entered the serious pollution, pm2.5 is one of the "culprit" haze weather. Not just the pm2.5 exceeds bid badly, pm10 has recently started to crazy, 3 a.m. yesterday, pm10 has reached 579 micrograms of a cubic meters, the nanjing the worst pollution index was about to break! In addition, the sky appeared a "mock sun"! Is too much because floats in the sky. If nanjing on October 1, the sky is blue, so today in nanjing will be gray and a piece of the sky.

Fog not only have an effect on the human body, many planes, ships, cars and so on all cant normal travel. Nanjing lukou airport has 53 flights affected by haze on time boot. Many highways have been closed, the highest visibility on the streets of only 10 meters the following, the car travel is very inconvenient. Hundreds of ships to stay in the Yangtze river in zhenjiang. The influence of the fogs really big ah!

We air pollution index of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze river has been more than the north, like tianjin, Beijing, hebei and other provinces, cities have been we left behind. The factory in the north is more, to produce a lot of dust, according to the reason for the northern cities should air pollution is the most "powerful", can be in November to December Chinas worst air index, almost all is our "occupy" in jiangsu province.

Now that the fog is so terrible, we should also consider what to do! 1, when faced with heavy fog, the first thing to hide the fog haze. Haze days dont go out as far as possible, dont get up early to exercise more. 2, mask is fog out of necessity. Will always wearing surgical masks, but not always wearing a mask, only on the road, a lot of bacteria such as hospital, pm2.5 wear a lot of place, at other times, try to put in my pocket.

This is the fog haze, a great influence on our body, we must learn to prevent it! That is why our school classes.

今天我们同学都留在家里不去上课。你们知道为什么吗?对了，就是因为雾霾。

雾霾是什么呢?南京等地的灰尘过多，而雾跟这些灰尘相结合，就变成了霾，人大量吸入会得肺病、哮喘等呼吸道疾病。

最近，南京的pm2.5接近爆表，到了今天凌晨3点，pm2.5已经达到了466微克一立方米，进入了严重污染，pm2.5是雾霾天气的“罪魁祸首”之一。不仅仅是pm2.5超标严重，pm10最近也开始疯狂起来，昨天凌晨3点，pm10已经达到了579微克一立方米，这项指标就快要破南京最差污染了!而且，天上还出现了一个“幻日”!就是因为天空中的漂浮物过多而形成的。如果说10月1日的南京的天空是湛蓝的，那么今天南京的天空将是灰蒙蒙地一片。

不仅雾霾对人体有影响，许多飞机、船只、汽车等都不能正常出行。南京禄口机场已有53个航班受雾霾影响不能准点开机。许多条高速公路都已经关闭，街头的最高能见度才仅仅10米即以下，这让汽车出行非常不方便。数百只船只停留在长江镇江段。雾霾的影响可真大呀!

我们长江中下游的空气污染指数已经超过了北方，像天津、北京、河北等省、市都已经被我们落在后面。北方的工厂较多，会排出很多的灰尘，按道理来讲北方城市应该空气污染是最“强”的，可11月到12月中国的空气最差指数，几乎全部是我们江苏“占领”的。

既然雾霾这么可怕，我们也应该想想该怎么办吧!1、当遇到浓雾天气，首先要躲雾霾。雾霾天尽量不要出门，更不要早起锻炼。2、口罩是雾天外出的必需品。要常带口罩，但不能常戴口罩，只有在马路上、医院里等病菌很多，pm2.5很多的地方戴，其他时候，尽量放在口袋里。

这就是雾霾，对我们人体影响很大，我们要学会预防它哦!这也就是我们学校为什么停课的原因了。

Be Grateful to Our Parents

I consider my parents as the most important people in my life. This is not because they re wealthy or famous. Rather, what I value about most is the care and love they show to me.

我认为我的父母是我生命中最重要的人.这并不是因为他们有钱或有名的.相反,我最珍惜的是他们给我的关心和爱..

I grew up with their constant care and love. While they re getting older with grey hair and wrinkles, they never lose dignity in both life and jobs.

我父母虽然努力工作,但他们总是陪在我身边.每当我陷入困境,迫切需要帮助时.他们是第一个支持我、鼓励我的人.我在他们不断的爱和照顾中长大.当他们变老而且出现白发和皱纹时,他们也永远不会失去生活和工作的尊严.

A Polluted Environment

Environmental pollution is a serious social problem. It poses a terrible threat to men’s health.

The atmosphere is filthy. The air is thick with dust and burnt oil. Dark smokes are being emitted from chimneys, and choking fumes are being

released from numerous vehicles. Stay a little while in a big city, then wipe your forehead with your handkerchief, it is black. Hang out your

washing on the line to dry, you will have to wash again. Garbage is left to accumulate in unsanitary heaps that attract flies and give off bad smell.

Nor is the pollution confined to air and land. Large quantity of sewage and chemical waste are dumped daily into rivers, lakes and the sea,

which kills millions of fish. Noises coming from honking cars, rumbling machines and broadcasting loudspeakers may make a person nervous and

irritable, even drive him crazy.

Environmental pollution is responsible for many diseases that are disabling, or bringing death to human beings.

In short, let’s take good care of our mother globe, not only for the well-being of ourselves, but also for that of our future generations.

Raise your head on August 4 and gaze at the stars, you will find something romantic going on in the sky.

VALENTINE‘‘S Day in China, the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, falls on August 4 this year.

That is, on Monday evening, Niu Lang and Zhi Nu will meet on a bridge of magpies(鹊桥) across the Milky Way(银河). Chinese grannies will remind children that they would not be able to see any magpies on that evening because all the magpies have left to form a bridge in the heavens with their wings.

Romantic legend

The legend has been handed down for nearly 2 millennia. The story has been recorded as far back as the Jin Dynasty (256-420 AD). Poets composed hundreds of verses on the love story and many types of Chinese opera tell the story.

The Chinese people believe that the star Vega(织女星), east of the Milky Way, is Zhi Nu and, at the constellation of Aquila(天鹰座), on the western side of the Milky Way, Niu Lang waits for his wife.

Zhi Nu was said to be the youngest of seven daughters of the Queen of Heaven. With her sisters, she worked hard to weave beautiful clouds in the sky, while Niu Lang was a poor orphan cowherd, driven out of his home by his elder brother and his cruel wife.

Niu Lang lamented over his lonely and poor life with an old cow, his only friend and companion. The magical cow kindly told him of a way to find a beautiful and nice woman as his life companion.

Under the direction of the cow, Niu Lang went to the riverside on an evening, where the seven fairies slipped out of their heavenly palace to bathe.

He took one of the beautiful silk dresses the fairies had left on the bank. When the fairies left the water, tthe youngest couldn‘‘t find her clothes and had to see her sisters fly back to heaven without her.

Then Niu Lang came out with the dress and asked the youngest fairy, Zhi Nu, to stay with him.

Several years passed on Earth, which were only a few days in heaven. Niu Lang and Zhi Nu lived happily together and had two children before the Queen of Heaven discovered Zhi Nu‘‘s absence.

She was so annoyed she had Zhi Nu brought back to heaven. Seeing his beloved wife flying in the sky, Niu Lang was terrified. He caught sight of the cowhide hanging on a wall. The magical cow had told him before dying of old age: "Keep the cowhide(牛皮) for emergency use."

Putting the cowhide on, he went after his wife with his two children.

With the help of the cowhide, Niu Lang was able to follow Zhi Nu into heaven. He was about to reach his wife when the Queen showed up and pulled off her hairpin to draw a line between the two. The line became the Silver River in heaven, or the Milky Way.

Zhi Nu went back to the heavenly workshop, going on weaving the clouds. But she was so sad, and missed her husband across the Silver River so much that the clouds she weaved seemed sad. Finally, the Queen showed a little mercy, allowing the couple to meet once every year on the Silver River

很久以前，有一个跟着哥嫂过活的孤儿，既聪明又勤快，可嫂嫂仍嫌弃他，天不亮就赶他上山放牛，大家都叫他牛郎。几年后，哥嫂和牛郎分了家，狼心的嫂嫂只给他一间破茅房、一头老牛。从此，牛郎白天放牛、砍柴，晚上就和老牛同睡在那间破茅房内。一天，牛郎赶牛走进了一片陌生的树林，这里山青水秀、鸟语花香。牛郎见到九个仙女驾着祥云落在河的草地上，然后脱去五彩霓裳，跳进清澈见底的河水里，牛郎盯着一个最年轻是美丽的仙女看入了神，这时老牛突然说话了："她是天上的织女，只要拿走五彩霓裳，她就会做你的妻子。"牛郎悄悄地沿着树从，悄悄拿走了织女的五彩霓裳。天近午时，其他仙女纷纷穿起五彩霓裳，驾着祥云而去。唯独找不到五彩霓裳的织女留下了。这时，牛郎从树后走出，请求织女做他的妻子。织女见牛郎忠厚老实，勤劳健壮，便脉脉含羞地点了点头。牛郎织女喜结良缘后，男耕女织，互敬互爱。两年后，织女生下一男一女。然而天帝闻知织女下嫁人间，勃然大怒。七月初七，王母奉旨带着天兵天将捉了织女。悲痛欲绝的牛郎在老牛的帮助下，用萝筐挑着儿女追上天去。眼看追上了，王母拔下金簪一划，牛郎脚下立刻出现一条波涛汹涌的天河。肝肠寸断的织女和肩挑儿女的牛郎，一个在河东一个在河西，遥望对泣。哭声感动了喜鹊，霎时无数的喜鹊飞向天河，搭起一座鹊桥，牛郎织女终于可以在鹊桥上相会了。王母无奈，只好允许牛郎织女每年的七月初七在桥上相会一次。

当然，这只是个传说。乞巧的仪式源自古代织女桑神的原始信仰。这种信仰结合了牛郎织女每年七月七日相会的说法，成了我们今时今日的七夕七巧民间信仰。

在我国，农历七月初七，人们俗称"七夕节",也有人称之为"乞巧节"或"女儿节",这是中国传统节日中最具浪漫色彩的一个节日，也是过去姑娘们最为重视的日子。其实不仅仅是汉族，壮族、满族、朝鲜族等也有过"七夕节"的习俗。不过，随着西方"情人节"流入中土，"七夕节"逐渐又被人称为中国的"情人节".然而她在年轻人中的影响力，却远不及每年阳历2月14日的西方"情人节".不光如此，象这样历史悠久且文化内涵深厚、有如此美丽传说的节日，竟越来越不受社会重视，越来越受冷落，是世界变化得太快?还是节日不够现代跟不上时代?牛郎织女难道真的会被中国人遗弃吗?"七夕节"受冷落迫使我们的目光又聚焦到中国传统节日的兴衰上。农历七月初七--七夕节

民间爱情传说之一的牛郎织女的故事。

七夕节始终和牛郎织女的传说相连，这是一个很美丽，千古流传的爱情故事，是我国四大民间爱情传说之一。

相传在很早以前，南阳城西牛家庄里有个聪明、忠厚的小伙子，父母早亡，只好跟着哥哥嫂子度日，嫂子马氏为人狠毒，经常虐待他，逼他干很多的活，一年秋天，嫂子逼他去放牛，给他九头牛，却让他等有了十头牛时才能回家，牛郎无奈只好赶着牛出了村。

……

一天，天上的织女和诸仙女一起下凡游戏，在河里洗澡，牛郎在老牛的帮助下认识了织女，二人互生情意，后来织女便偷偷下凡，来到人间，做了牛郎的妻子。织女还把从天上带来的天蚕分给大家，并教大家养蚕，抽丝，织出又光又亮的绸缎。

牛郎和织女结婚后，男耕女织，情深意重，他们生了一男一女两个孩子，一家人生活得很幸福。但是好景不长，这事很快便让天帝知道，王母娘娘亲自下凡来，强行把织女带回天上，恩爱夫妻被拆散。

牛郎上天无路，还是老牛告诉牛郎，在它死后，可以用它的皮做成鞋，穿着就可以上天。牛郎按照老牛的话做了，穿上牛皮做的鞋，拉着自己的儿女，一起腾云驾雾上天去追织女，眼见就要追到了，岂知王母娘娘拔下头上的金簪一挥，一道波涛汹涌的天河就出现了，牛郎和织女被隔在两岸，只能相对哭泣流泪。他们的忠贞爱情感动了喜鹊，千万只喜鹊飞来，搭成鹊桥，让牛郎织女走上鹊桥相会，王母娘娘对此也无奈，只好允许两人在每年七月七日于鹊桥相会。

后来，每到农历七月初七，相传牛郎织女鹊桥相会的日子，姑娘们就会来到花前月下，抬头仰望星空，寻找银河两边的牛郎星和织女星，希望能看到他们一年一度的相会，乞求上天能让自己能象织女那样心灵手巧，祈祷自己能有如意称心的美满婚姻，由此形成了七夕节。
