On a Sunday, I went to the Thanksgiving Day activities, making Thanksgiving cookies, to give my mother to eat.

The teacher gave us a person a face, lets do cookies, do you want to do, had better not too thick, or roast are not ripe. As soon as I get I like, like: do you want to do look simple, but not too thick to trouble! I sat and thought would have been doing, I made a round of biscuits, the result is not round, looks very strange; And he made a pentagram, pinch out a look, is more than just a pentagram, into a hexagon, seven horns; And literally made a shape, a see too much too thick, are not ripe, knead again -- -- -- -- -- - in short, came up with many kinds of appearance, knead for a variety of appearance, have no a good variety of appearance. I want to see others, get some inspiration. A look at do the five-pointed star, smiling, have, as a windmill have do SIMS, have to do... Like various various, but I didnt also inspired by a little. All of a sudden, I bursts with a thought in your mind: put the biscuits as a volcano? Do, somewhat nice and have a blessing. Good, because at the end of a pull out a round head, round surface above the round head poked a hole in it; Blessing: I wish a happy mothers like a volcanic eruption. Well, since want to good, began to do, I do, in the way I want to do a, not level off, but it doesnt matter, because the mountain was uneven; I did a few, to the teacher in the oven...

Finally, I take cookies to mom, I do to repay my mother for me nearly a decade, the mother said after tastes: "well, well done!"

在一个星期天，我去参加感恩节活动，做感恩节饼干，给妈妈吃。

老师给我们一人一块面，让我们做饼干，做自己想做的样子，最好不要太厚，要不然烤不熟的。我一拿到就傻了眼，就想：要做自己想做的样子简单，但不要太厚就麻烦了!我就坐着想，边想还做着，我做了一个圆形的饼干，结果一点都不圆，样子十分奇怪;又做了一个五角星，捏完一看，都不止是五角星，成六角、七角的了;又随便做了一个形状，一看太高太厚了，烤不熟，又捏了------总之，想出了无数种样子，捏了好多种样子，有否定了好多种样子。我想看看别人的，从中得到一些启发。一看有做五角星的，有做笑脸的，有做风车的，有做小人的，有做……样子千奇百怪各种各样，但我也没受一点启发。突然，我脑子里迸出个念头：把饼干做成火山状怎么样?又好做又有祝福的。好做，是因为在一块底是圆的面上拔出个圆头，在圆头上面捅个洞就好了;祝福是：祝妈妈的快乐像火山爆发一样多。好了，既然想好了，就开始做了，我按我想的方法做，做了一个，不算平整，但是没关系，因为山本来就不平整;我如法炮制了几个，交给老师放进烤箱……

最后，我拿我做的饼干交给妈妈，以报答妈妈对我近十年的养育之恩，妈妈尝了一口后说：“嗯，做得不错!”

Actually, Thanksgiving is not as far-fetched as we imagined, it is simple to do. When others asked you wonderful eyes, you have to reciprocate a kind eyes; When get the help of others, you only need to cast a sweet smile. When encouraged by others, say "Ill try", this is gratitude.

Gratitude, enrich our life; Gratitude, shape our mind; Thanksgiving, make the world become beautiful; Thanksgiving, make we have love. Lets pregnant with a grateful heart, to thank the dribs and drabs in life!!!!

其实，感恩并不像我们想像得那么遥不可及，它做起来也很简单。当他人向你投来美好的目光时，你要回赠一个亲切的眼神;当得到他人的帮助时，你只需投去一个甜甜的微笑;当受到他人的鼓励时，说声“我会努力的”，这就是感恩。

感恩，充实着我们的生活;感恩，塑造着我们的心灵;感恩，使世界变得美丽;感恩，使我们拥有爱心。让我们怀带一颗感恩的心，去感谢生活中的点点滴滴吧!

The field is his study， nature was his book. Travelers can choose different modes of transportation which have advantages and disadvantages. Airplanes are the fastest but also the most expensive. Buses and trains are less expensive， but they soon make you feel cramped and uncomfortable. Ships provide you with comfort unless you get seasick. Most people can afford traveling by bicycle， which although slow，can limber up your muscles and get you closer to nature.

关于旅游的英语作文

I love traveling. Traveling not only broadens my horizons but also opens my eyes to the world. Whats more, it refreshes me. You can go to Disneyland and experience what its like to be “a child again!” You can visit one of the“seven wonders of the world,” such as the Grand Canyon and feel the magnificence of nature! You can taste the “magical” ice water on a glacier, which can help you become more beautiful and make you live longer. Just forget all trifles and burdens that you have in your mind. Experience is a type of living knowledge. Youll be sure to experience many new things when traveling. You dont even need a tour guide if you long for more freedom. Just dont forget to bring your backpack!

Tourism has enjoyed sex. Tourism in order to escape from real life stress, relax, feel differently through the journey, different experiences, the pursuit of joy to experience. Tourist enjoying enjoyment of the physiology of the body, or it can be free of emotion and imagination. Tourism is enjoying nature and allows people to really integrate into the grounds, enjoy a very enjoyable trip.

旅游具有享受性。旅游是人们为了逃离现实生活工作的压力、自我放松，通过旅途中不同的感受，不同的经历，追求愉悦身心的体验。旅游的享受性既可是身体的生理的享受，也可以是情感的无拘无束，充满想象。因此旅游是具有享受性的，让人们真正融入到旅途中，享受旅途快乐。

旅游的意义在于有所发现，然后提升自我。

Travel is all about discovery and self. Yudan, famous scholars, Professor of Beijing Normal University

The teachers words made me realize that tourism is not the meaning of travel thousands of miles, but from thousands of miles were found journey. Road, we encountered a situation is uncertain, constantly changing environment can sometimes give us surprises, and more is let us start thinking experiences that are already starting to rediscover yourself. When we swim in tourist destinations, as well as the native way of life when it is hard to fit into their lives, then let us have more opportunity to quietly reflect on our old life, or even think about life.

Tourists wandering in different landscapes, different ways of life,between different cultures, there will always be people emotions occur collisions, human heart incline quiet, wide, clear thoughts, find something that usually wouldnt find out. Come tour these feeling are incredible, it often is our own, to a deeper understanding of life and feeling, the point of which is tourism

于老师的这段话让我认识到，旅游的意义不是踏遍千山万水，而是从千山万水的旅途中有所发现。旅途中我们所遇到的情况都是不确定的，在不断变化的环境中有时会给我们惊喜，而更多的则是让我们从已有的经历中开始重新认识思考自己。当我们穿梭在旅游地以及当地人的生活方式中时，我们很难融入进他们的生活，则让我们有更多机会去静静思考我们原有的生活，甚至思考生命。

旅游者游走在不同的景观，不同的生活方式，不同的文化背景之间，总会让人的情感心灵发生碰撞，让人的心倾刻宁静、胸怀广阔、思绪明朗，发现平时所发现不了的东西。旅游中得来的这些感悟是难能可贵的，它常常是我们对自己、对生命更深层次的理解与感悟，这也正是旅游的意义所在 Everyone has a different definition of travel, some people only think of travel as a way of relaxing, while others travel as a learning, they need to be alone on the roads, one free lessons of travel are nutrients for their growth helped.

每个人对旅行的定义都不同，有些人仅仅把旅行当作放松的一种方式， 而有些人把旅行当作一种学习，他们需要孤身上路，一个人随心所欲的汲取旅行中得到的养分，为自己成长助益。

Someone said, "life is just a journey, traveling is the taste of a different life." Travel, is to leave the familiar place, then dont return. Travel, is to return to the starting place and know it again.

Travel is a point on the map, leaving their footprints, then slowly and taste memories. Travel is to experience a variety of geography and culture, there has a different way of life,

has a different kind of life posed by the varied cultural polymorphism.

有人说“人生其实就是一场旅行，旅行就是体味不同的人生”。

旅行，就是离开生活熟悉的地方，然后不一样的归来。旅行，就是重新回到出发的地方，并重新认识它。

旅行，就是在地图上的一个点，留下自己的脚印，然后慢慢回忆和品味。旅行，就是体验不同的地理和文化，那里有着别样的生存

方式，有着别样的人生所构成的多姿多态的文化。

Travels on Holiday China

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 years several new holiday habits have been developed. Among them, the most interesting one is the growth of the so-called holiday camps.

Why did those changes appearI 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. The Best Way of Traveling

最好的旅游方式

People travel by plane, by train, by ship, by bus. For me, the best way of traveling on a summer vacation is to go on foot.

人们去旅游有的乘飞机、有的坐火车、坐船、乘公共汽车。对我来说在暑假，最好的方式是徒步旅行。 My preference depends on the purpose of the travel. On a summer vacation I travel to refresh myself and to see the countryside. When I use my feet and walk on a grass covered path along a river or among the hills I feel detached from the noise of the city and closer to the nature. And when I travel on foot I get more freedom. I can plan my own schedule. I can choose my own route. I can stop where I like. And I can see things and people that I might miss if I travel on a train or on a bus.

我的偏好取决于旅行的目的。在暑假我旅游是为了消除疲劳并欣赏乡村美景。当我沿着河流或在群山之间走在一条青草覆盖的路上时，我觉得我远离了城市的喧嚣、亲近了自然。徒步旅行，使我很自由。我可以自己安排行程。可以选择我自己的路线。我可以把车子停在我喜欢的地方。而且我可以遇到那些坐火车或公共汽车会错过的人和事。

When faster and more convenient ways for travel are becoming available, I still favor using my own feet. I get much pleasure from it. People travel by plane, by train, by ship, by bus. To me, the best way of traveling on a summer vacation is to go on foot.

当更迅速、更方便的方式使旅游变得更便捷，我仍然热衷于徒步旅行。我从中得到许多乐趣。人们去

旅游有的乘飞机、有的坐火车、坐船、乘公共汽车。对我来说在暑假，最好的方式是徒步旅行。 Tour is not only a personal interest but also a kind of knowledge. A merry journey will be the memory that you can’t forget through your lifetime. It’s really at ease if you wander with two or three china pates who have a little exploratory energy to stay in the interesting places as long as you want but just ignore the unsightly places.

旅游不单是一种兴趣，还是一门学问，快乐的旅途是你终生难忘的回忆。要是有点探险精神的，三两同游，好玩的多逗留，游个饱，不好的不看也罢，自由自在；

It’s not good to join the travel agency otherwise we should call it gaining a superficial understanding through cursory observation but not traveling. Of course, we should study to choose a most toward occasion for the most famous and beautiful scene in the places before we are going to.

不参加旅游团为好，那叫走马观花，不叫旅游。当然，出去之前应该研究一下，要知道你想前往的地方最出名最美丽的风光何时才有

And we need enough money, enough time, special channel and also an economical plane, it’s convenient for us. And we can save more time to view the blue sky generally and look out upon the cloud dancing freely outside the plane.

要是有足够的钱，宽容的时间，路线也应讲究，经济许可的可坐飞机，便捷省时，一览碧空，看云儿在脚下自由自在的飘舞；

It’s also not bad to travel by train. Enjoy the scenery out of the train on the way, just look around here and there , maybe you can get some new friends in this narrow but long carriage. Certainly you’d better choose the different path when you return back from the place of interest so that you can make your eyes full of the landscape of interest on the way and never need to revisit the once familiar place. How far-flung and galland the rivers and mountains in our homeland are! There are still too many places we can go.

坐火车呢，那也不俗，沿途景致，这边看看那边望望，说不定在车上还能交上朋友呢！当然来回路线最好不要一样，这样可把沿途的山水名胜游个饱，将来也不用再到这一片热土作重游之想了。我们的祖国啊河山辽阔壮丽，要去的地方多着呢。

Time is limited but the interest of traveling is limitless. We travel just because of our love knot to the natural mountains and rivers!

旅游之趣，不是一时能谈完的，不过，旅游，皆自对山水之钟情呵！

作文

There is a saying that “You can either travel or read, but either your body or soul must be on the way.” With the improvement of living standards, more and more people have time and money to travel. During traveling, one can meet various people, make new friends and experience various lifestyles of different places.

有句俗话说：“你可以去旅行或者阅读，但是你的身体和灵魂必须在路上。”随着生活水平的提高，越来越多的人们时间和金钱去旅游。在旅游期间，可以见到形形色色的人，交新朋友，在不同地方体验不同的生活方式。

Regarding tour, most of people have great interests in it. It is a human nature that people who come from the dame nature just fall in love into the same.

对于旅游，许多人都怀有浓厚的兴趣。人从自然中来，崇尚自然，乃人类之天性。

The modern city, strenuous living, quickly and crowded living space make more and more people try to come to the dame nature with their light packs and travel bags. There is a song which just show peoples the dream of traveling long distance.

现代都市，生活的高节奏，生存空间的喧嚣和拥挤，使越来越来的人背起行囊轻装走向自然，记得有一首歌《我想去桂林》，正很好地唱出了人们想去远游的愿望。

Traveling, of course, it’s to get into the physical landscape which can help to give you a good temper, wash away the dust from your soul and make you cheer the nice life.

旅游，当然是到真正的山水中去，可以陶冶你的情操，荡涤心灵的尘埃，令你欢呼生命的美好。

Advantages of Travel By traveling we can enjoy the beautiful scenery in different places. We will see with our own eyes many places read of in books, and visit some famous cities and scenic spots. We will meet people with different interests and see strange and different things when we travel. We can get ideas of the conditions and customs of other people, taste different foods and special local flavour if we like. In this way, we can understand how differently other people live.

Secondly, we can make friends and practice a foreign language through travelling. Finally, travel is the best way of pastime. We can enjoy eating various foods and seeing beautiful sceneries.

Now I would like to give you some details about Thanksgiving Day in the

United States. Thanksgiving Day is the most truly American of the national

Holidays in the United States and is most closely connected with the earliest

history of the country.

现在我想给你们详细谈谈美国的感恩节。感恩节是美国国定假日中最地道、最美国式的节日，而且它和早期美国历史最为密切相关。

In 1620, the settlers, or Pilgrims, they sailed to America on the May

flower, seeking a place where they could have freedom of worship. After a

tempestuous two-month voyage they landed at in icy November, what is now

Plymouth, Massachusetts.

1620年，一些朝圣者(或称为清教徒)乘坐"五月花"号船去美国寻求宗教自由。他们在海上颠簸折腾了两个月之后，终于在酷寒的十一月里，在现在的马萨诸塞州的普里茅斯登陆。

During their first winter, over half of the settlers died of starvation or

epidemics. Those who survived began sowing in the first spring.

在第一个冬天，半数以上的移民都死于饥饿和传染病，活下来的人们在第一个春季开始播种。

All summer long they waited for the harvests with great anxiety, knowing

that their lives and the future existence of the colony depended on the coming

harvest.Finally the fields produced a yield rich beyond expectations. And

therefore it was decided that a day of thanksgiving to the Lord be fixed. Years

later, President of the United States proclaimed the fourth Thursday of November

as Thanksgiving Day every year. The celebration of Thanksgiving Day has been

observed on that date until today.

整个夏天他们都热切地盼望着丰收的到来，他们深知自己的生存以及殖民地的存在与否都将取决于即将到来的收成。后来，庄稼获得了意外的丰收，所以大家决定要选一个日子来感谢上帝的恩典。多年以后，美国总统宣布每年十一月的第四个星期四为感恩节。感恩节庆祝活动便定在这一天，直到如今。

The pattern of the Thanksgiving celebration has never changed through the

years. The big family dinner is planned months ahead. On the dinner table,

people will find apples, oranges, chestnuts, walnuts and grapes.There will be

plum pudding, mince pie, other varieties of food and cranberry juice and squash.

The best and most attractive among them are roast turkey and pumpkin pie. They

have been the most traditional and favorite food on Thanksgiving Day throughout

the years.

感恩节庆祝模式许多年来从未改变。丰盛的家宴早在几个月之前就开始着手准备。人们在餐桌上可以吃到苹果、桔子、栗子、胡桃和葡萄，还有葡萄干布丁、碎肉馅饼、各种其它食物以及红莓苔汁和鲜果汁，其中最妙和最吸引人的大菜是烤火鸡和番瓜馅饼，这些菜一直是感恩节中最富于传统意义和最受人喜爱的食品。

Everyone agrees the dinner must be built around roast turkey stuffed with a

bread dressing to absorb the tasty juices as it roasts. But as cooking varies

with families and with the regions where one lives, it is not easy to get a

consensus on the precise kind of stuffing for the royal bird.Thanksgiving today

is, in every sense, a national annual holiday on which Americans of all faiths

and backgrounds join in to express their thanks for the year s bounty and

reverently ask for continued[5] blessings.

人人都赞成感恩节大餐必需以烤火鸡为主菜。火鸡在烘烤时要以面包作填料以吸收从中流出来的美味汁液，但烹饪技艺常因家庭和地区的不同而各异，应用什幺填料也就很难求得一致。今天的感恩节是一个不折不扣的国定假日。在这一天，具有各种信仰和各种背景的美国人，共同为他们一年来所受到的上苍的恩典表示感谢，虔诚地祈求上帝继续赐福。

Speaking of mother care about me, it may be said not to finish, today, Ill tell you a story that I can not forget.

It was a sunny morning, we are quietly listening to the teacher. Suddenly, a downpour. Is it right? Dad and mother quarrel cloud cloud, rain are quietly slipped out. Oh, that s too bad. I almost cried, I also did not take an umbrella!

Soon after school, I and the students were umbrella, walked out of the school. I am very anxious, suddenly, I saw a mother figure, because mom is a near-sighted, she cant find me, where to look east look west also very anxious, I thought: “mom really hard, so big rain, but also to meet me.” I picked up the pace, walked to the front of her mother, said to his mother: “Mom, Im here!” Her mother turned, said to me: “the cold, dont catch a cold. We go home quickly!” I nodded. Then, my mother took me by the hand, and went to the home.

Along the way, mom always afraid I was the rain dolls hit, therefore, always an umbrella to my side, but, she was drenched through with rain. More rain under the greater, mother let me go to a place where there is no water, and she went on very wet ground, sometimes, she stepped on a puddle, her pants are wet.

After a while, we returned home, my mother gave me to wear a coat, I was touched.

Ah! Mothers love is the greatest thing in the world!

说起妈妈关心我的事，那可就说不完了，今天，我就给大家讲个让我难以忘怀的一件事。

那是在一个晴朗的早晨，我们正在安安静静地听老师讲课。忽然，下起了倾盆大雨。是不是云爸爸和云妈妈吵架了，小雨点们都悄悄地溜了出来。“糟糕！”我差点叫了起来，我还没有带雨伞呢！

很快就放学了，我先和同学共伞，走出了校门。我十分焦急，忽然，我看到了妈妈的身影，因为妈妈是一个近视眼，她找不到我，在那儿东看西看也十分焦急，我想：“妈妈真辛苦，这么大的雨，还来接我。”我加快了脚步，走到了妈妈面前，对妈妈说：“妈妈，我在这儿呢！”妈妈转过身来，对我说：“冷吗，可别着凉了。我们快回家吧！”我点了点头。说完，妈妈就拉着我的手，向家走去。

一路上，妈妈总怕我被雨点娃娃打到，所以，总是把雨伞向我这边靠，可是，她却被雨淋得全身湿淋淋的。雨越下越大，妈妈让我走到没有水的地方，面她却走在十分湿的地面上，有时，她却踩在水坑上，她的裤子也湿了。

过了一会儿，我们就回到了家里，妈妈给我穿上了一件棉衣，我十分感动。

啊！妈妈的爱是世界上最伟大的！

Thanksgiving originated origin can be traced back to the history of the United States, originated in the early settlers of Plymouth, Massachusetts. Known as the pilgrims when these immigrants in the UK, because of their religious reform of the church of England is not completely, and the king and the church of England repression of their political and religious persecution, so the pilgrims from the church of England, go to the Netherlands, then decided to move to the other side of the Atlantic that desolate land, hope to be able to freely according to their wishes religious life.

In 1620, the famous "mayflower" ship loaded with unbearable the Britain domestic religious persecution Puritan 102 people had arrived in America. In 1620 and 1621, the turn of the winter, they met with refugees brought the necessities, also specially taught them how to hunting, fishing and planting corn, pumpkin. With the help of the indians, immigrants finally won a harvest, in the days of harvest celebration according to religious traditions, immigration rules the day of Thanksgiving to god, and decided to thank the indians sincere help, inviting them to celebrate the festival together.

In this way, whites and indians around the bonfire, chating at, also singing and dancing, the whole celebration lasted three days. Many of the first Thanksgiving celebration has been circulated.

感恩节的由来可以追溯到美国历史的发端，起源于马萨诸塞普利茅斯的早期移民。这些移民在英国本土时被称为清教徒，因为他们对英国教会的宗教改革不彻底感到不满，以及英王及英国教会对他们的政治镇压和宗教迫害，所以这些清教徒脱离英国教会，远走荷兰，后来决定迁居到大西洋彼岸那片荒无人烟的土地上，希望能按照自己的意愿信教自由地生活。

1620年，著名的“五月花”号船满载不堪忍受英国国内宗教迫害的清教徒102人到达美洲。1620年和1621年之交的冬天，他们遇到了难民送来了生活必需品，还特地派人教他们怎样狩猎、捕鱼和种植玉米、南瓜。在印第安人的帮助下，移民们终于获得了丰收，在欢庆丰收的日子，按照宗教传统习俗，移民规定了感谢上帝的日子，并决定为感谢印第安人的真诚帮助，邀请他们一同庆祝节日。

1621年11月下旬的星期四，清教徒们和马萨索德带来的90名印第安人欢聚一堂，庆祝美国历史上第一个感恩节。他们在黎明时鸣放礼炮，列队走进一间用作教堂的屋子，虔诚地向上帝表达谢意，然后点起篝火举行盛大宴会，将猎获的火鸡制成美味佳肴盛情款待印第安人。第二天和第三天又举行了摔跤、赛跑、唱歌、跳舞等活动 。男性清教徒外出打猎、捕捉火鸡，女人们则在家里用玉米、南瓜、红薯和果子等做成美味佳肴。就这样，白人和印第安人围着篝火，边吃边聊，还载歌载舞，整个庆祝活动持续了三天 。第一个感恩节的许多庆祝方式一直流传后代 。

during these days in your class, i have learned much from you and it is very helpful to me. firstly, you let me know what is the west thinking pattern—straight thinking pattern. and, i think, it is very important to understand the west’s thoughts. as you know, this can help me with my examination and interaction with foreigners. secondly, i have got enough confidence in speaking in english from your class and it took me a long time to gain this confidence. now, i always express my ideas in english as possible as i can. it’s great to do that. the last not the least, i find that learning english is not an boring thing as before and i’m interested in studying english which was just a necessary task to pass examinations. reading, listening or speaking all become interesting and i really enjoy it.

above all, i want to say thanks again to you. and thank you for your time.

good luck ^_^

Thanksgiving, general in spoken and written expression, but my gratitude for mom to come with the results.

Whenever I want to test, and her mother to help I got good grades, is a comprehensive test was synthesized overnight.

The next day, the mother gave up time to work, at home to help me again, and said a lot of my mother when I was a child exam 100 points to so many things, is want me to can got good grades. Do what I dont, or wont write, mother like tracker found that then teach me. If she wouldnt she would ask people one by one, until let me make it clear. If I do not serious topic, she also cant scold me, but tell me the truth! In this way, day after day passed, I ushered in the last review, on this day, I am also very tired, but mother no let me relax, Ill have to wait for that day, I thought I must be good!

Exam, I found these questions most of them are written, I didnt know that mothers toil and sweat.

Exam curly hair down, I got 98 points, I cant believe it, I had just got 87 points or so commonly, incredibly suddenly raised so much!

I thought: this piece of paper, went to the Thanksgiving gift to mom!

感恩，一般用说写的方法表达，但我对妈妈的感恩是用成绩换来的。

每当我要考试时，妈妈为了帮我考到好成绩，就连夜合成了一张综合的测试卷。

第二天，妈妈放弃了上班的时间，又在家里帮助我，并说了好多妈妈小时候考到那么多100分的事情，都是想让我能考到好的成绩。我什么题不会做，或不会写，妈妈就像跟踪器一样发现，然后教我。如果她也不会的她也会一个个的问别人，直到让我弄清楚为止。如果我不认真的做题目，她也不会骂我，而是告诉我道理!就这样，一天天过去了，我迎来了最后一个复习日，这一天，我也十分劳累，但是妈妈没有一点让我放松的意思，我只好等到了那一天，我心想我一定要考好!

考试时，我发现了这些题目大部分都是写过的，我这才知道妈妈的辛劳和汗水。

考试卷发下来了，我考了98分，我不敢相信，我原来一般只考87分左右，居然一下子提升了这么多!

我想：这张卷子，就到感恩节时送给妈妈做礼物吧!

老师像什么？老师就像蜡烛，燃烧了自己照亮了别人，老师就像新颖的大树，为小苗苗遮风挡雨。

我们的郑老师是一位英语老师，她中等身材，一张和蔼可亲的面孔，她是那么美丽，从那黑色眼睛中透出的目光是那么的炯炯有神，一对长长的眼睫毛，一张樱桃小嘴看起来像19岁的小姑娘，这位老师经常受我们同学的爱戴，她也只是微微一笑，说声谢谢。

一次我下楼的时候看见了郑老师，我紧张急了，准备溜之大吉，可是，我正准备往右走的时候，老师也往右走，正准备往左走的时候，老师也往左走，旁边的同学哈哈大笑，我正往右走的时候不小心撞了一个硬邦邦的东西，留血了，老师说没事吧？她用温柔的声音说。我说：没事，没事我挥了挥手。那怎么行？你的伤口会感染的，这样吧，我送你去医护室。那好吧，谢谢老师老师说这是我应该做的。老师扶着我，下了楼，去医护室，顿时，我感到了一丝温暖。

医护室的老师说：没什么事，只不过蹭破了皮，涂涂药水就好了，这时老师悬起的心才定了下来。涂完了药水，老师说：我送你回家吧！我摇了摇头说：啊!不用不用，我没事，我真没事。在我的极力劝阻下老师才说：那好吧！你自己回去吧！路上一定要小心。我点了点头说知道了，老师再见。于是，我上了车，坐在位子上，我还在笑呢！

我的老师会关心他人，爱护他人，像一位善良的天使一样，虽然我已经6年纪了，那位老师也许忘记我了，但是，我不会忘记您，因为你已经刻在我的心里了。

Every year on the fourth ThursDayof November is Thanksgiving Day. It’s a festival for American and Canadian with the purpose of thanks for harvest. While canadians celebrate on the second Monday of October. I have a penfriend in America. He wrote to me his Thanksgiving Day last year. He told me that it was a time for family reunion. Families would come back home to celebrate the festival together. Most of the time it was his mother who prepared the dinner. Turkey is must for the festival. It looks like huge chicken. His mother also made pumpkin pie and many other delicious food for them. After the dinner, they talked with each other with the old thing or the future plan. He said sometimes they would invite some friends to share the happiness of Thanksgiving Day. In a word, he had a great time on Thanksgiving Day.

每年十一月的第四个星期四是感恩节。这是美国和加拿大为了感谢丰收的节日。但是加拿大人却是在十月的第二个星期一庆祝。我在美国有一个笔友。他写信告诉我他去年感恩节的情况。他告诉我那是家庭团聚的时间。家人们都会回家庆祝节日。大多数时候，是他的母亲准备晚餐。火鸡是节日的必需品。它看起来像一只巨型鸡。他的母亲也做了南瓜派和许多其他美味的食物给他们。晚饭过后，他们会互相谈论过去的事或未来计划。他说有时候他们也会邀请一些朋友来一起分享感恩节快乐。总之，他在感恩节过得很开心。

清明节了，这是一个慎终追远的节日。但是清明是一个多好听的名字啊，它清亮，它明朗，我们心中的那种怀念，我希望它不是沉重的，而是悠扬的，因为我们有感恩。

我说感恩生命，其实是因为在这个节日里，我想得最多的人是我的父亲。刚才我在上台前，就被马未都教师给招哭了，但是他在说父亲，我的眼泪已经下来了。我当时在想，他说父亲我也要说父亲，我会害怕跟他重复吗?不会。因为一个男人的眼中，父亲如山，父亲是他的楷模，是他的榜样，是他作为男子汉的一种信念。但是在一个女儿的眼中，可以说一个女人，她对世界对男人对爱，很多最初的信念来自父亲，对女人来讲，她是否信任爱情，信任婚姻，信任人性，往往没有迟到从她的初恋开始，而是从她的父亲开始，因为这是她生命成长中第一个认识的男人，这个人负责任吗?这个人会有一种温柔之爱吗?马老师刚才说跟父亲之间没有太多的大事，但在一个女儿的眼中，我觉得更锁细，但是有点不同的是，我要说在感恩之前，我先要说一个父亲，在一个任性的、娇惯的女儿的成长里，他先要忍受多少误读，我误读了我父亲很多年，甚至直到他辞世。我小时候对父亲是什么感觉呢?他严厉，因为小的时候最先让我背诗词的人是他，教我古文的人是他，最早我接触《论语》、《庄子》也是因为他，后来直到我上了大学，我读的是中文系，我上了研究生读的是古典文学。父亲会给我改论文，他改论文的时候我心里很烦，因为他不是在给你改这些文辞的意思而已，他还会说你哪个字倒插笔了，我当时觉得他很迂阔，按他这种改法，每个标点符号要改，哪个字间架结构不好，他要给你写一个，哪个字看出倒插笔了，他会给你重新写出一个笔画来，这多烦哪!我从来没想过他烦不烦，我所有的论文都是他这样改过的，但他给我的印象还是严厉。

我父亲走后，我妈妈给我讲了一件事。她说你爸在的时候，一直不让告诉你，她说了一件我记得的事情，就是我爸爸的60岁生日，是北京天寒地冻的时候。我那天中午呢出门去给他买了一个大奶油蛋糕，我从学校拎回家，我说：爸我下午上课去了，等我回来以后，晚上咱们过生日吃蛋糕。我爸瞥了一眼，说：嗨!这都是你们小孩吃的东西，我不爱吃这个。我就走了。当然下了课回来呢，看爸爸还是挺高兴的，然后大家吃饭，我给我爸爸做的贺卡，然后大家一起呢把蛋糕切了，吃完了，我看他也吃，也挺高兴，就过去了。二十年之后，我父亲去世了以后，我妈妈告诉我了这个故事的另一个版本。她说那天下午你走了以后呢，家里来了一个我们世交家的儿子，我爸爸就跟他说，他说：涛涛，这是你小丹姐姐刚给大伯伯买的，我又不吃这奶油的东西，你拿走吃了吧!大概到下午快4点了，我妈说我爸就开始像一个犯了错的孩子一样，在屋里面转圈，我妈说：你干吗呢?他就小声地说：我犯错了，那是丫头给我买的，我吃不吃我也不能给人!你快帮我想那蛋糕盒子到底是什么颜色的，那个蛋糕上好像有字，写的是什么?你能想起多少，咱们俩往一块碰，我一定得买一个让孩子看不出来的蛋糕。后来我妈说，在我下午放学前一刻钟，我爸呼哧带喘地拎着蛋糕回来了放在桌上。我回家的时候毫无查觉。所以我们晚上呢，还是过了一个挺好的生日。这个故事，我很多年以后才知道。后来我才想起来，这就是我父亲，一个一直被他钟爱的女儿误读的父亲。从小长大，我爸爸给我立了多少规矩，我记住的往往是他的严厉，但是忽略了他生命中的那种温柔，所以其实走到清明这一天，我想起《论语》上的一句话，古训说父母之年，不可不知也，一则以喜一则以惧。我们爹妈的年纪真得记在心里，想起来一方面当然高兴，如果大家高堂犹在的话。可是另外一种心情，是一则以惧，我们到底还有多少时间可以去尽孝呢?我想说有女儿的父亲很幸福，女儿贴心女儿撒娇女儿依恋，可是女儿在青春期的时候，在她反叛的时候，在她不想吃那么苦去立大业的时候，在她恋爱的时候，她一定都曾经违背过父亲的意愿。所以父亲们，请一定要等到女儿们长大，一定要等着我们。所以我想说今天如果在座的有父亲的女儿，那就让我们趁着父亲还在的时候早一天去懂得他。如果有女儿们的父亲，请你们一定要等待着女儿。

所以其实成长是一件很有意思的事情，过去说不养儿不知父母恩，我生命中很大的遗憾就是我的父亲没来得及看见我的孩子。我自己有孩子以后我才知道，我那个时候对父亲很不屑，因为他颤颤巍巍拄着拐杖走在街上，总去逗别人怀里的孩子，我总觉得很烦，我老拉着他快点走，我说你别去打搅人家，他就张着嘴呵呵地拉着人家孩子的小手不放。我真的觉得很遗憾，他没有看见我的孩子。所以我说清明这个节日，我希望在这一天更懂得我的父亲。

刚才在后台的时候，编导跟我说每个人可以选一束花来给你自己缅怀的人，我毫不犹豫地拿了这束花，这束花里面有松柏有红鹤，这是矛盾的，这就是我父亲，外人看他是松柏，我一直把他当成松柏一样的榜样，但是另一方面，我父亲就是鲜艳的红鹤，他的内心一直有火一样的温柔，有他的爱，有他那种克制的柔情。我拿起这束花，我觉得这两种矛盾的特质，是我完整的父亲。怀念父亲怀念自己的根，所以我要说，在清明这一天感恩生命。我们感恩父母，感恩世界，感恩这片土地，感恩我们相遇的每一个人，让这种感恩去多理解我们的父亲，理解今天还来得及懂得的人，理解我们自己的心，理解未来。

There are many kinds of thanksgiving days in the world.

American thanksgiving day is another important holiday related to christianity.

It is on the fourth thursday of each november.

Thanksgiving day in america is considered as a time to offer thanks, of family gatherings and holiday meals, such as turkeys, pumpkin pie, indian corn and so on.

There are always holiday parades and hot balloons on that day.

Thanksgiving, is a topic that no one know no one knows all, yet very few people do reach the designated position.

From the parents to the teacher, from senior animals, to the wild animals... In this world there are a lot of people are grateful, then, lets listen to a fairy tale:

A female Wolf just had better take a Wolf, its husband was killed by a hunter, the hunter would skin male Wolf down, wearing it come to the side of the mother Wolf, in order to peel the female Wolf skin. Later, he and mother Wolf pups up, one day the Wolf came to her side to drive him go, hunter, this just understand mother Wolf has long been known that he is a person, because a mother Wolf and his life for a long time and dont want to eat him, he gave the male Wolf skin back to mother, tears in eyes after the Wolf goes.

Listen to the story, Thanksgiving this word in my heart, in the individual character, Thanksgiving let you awake.

Have you ever thought to mother wash feet, to father hit back at a time, do you have any experience their feelings, they in order to you can go through fire and water, if you are sick, they think: if you can, sick is our! But if there is no if in the world, really have if, then you also need to Thanksgiving? Dont need to, so there is no if in the world, but the gratitude is indispensable. There is love, because gratitude gratitude because there is love.

感恩，是一个无人不知无人不晓的话题，却又很少有人做的到位。

从父母到老师，从高级动物的人，到野性十足的动物……在这个世界上有很多人要感恩，那么，来听一个童话故事吧：

一只母狼刚生完小狼，它的丈夫被一个猎人杀死了，猎人把公狼的皮剥了下来，穿着它来到母狼身边，为的是要剥下母狼的皮。后来，他和母狼把小狼养大了，一天母狼来到他的身边驱赶他走，猎人这才明白母狼早已知道他是人，因为母狼和他生活了很长时间而不想吃他，他含泪把那公狼皮还给了母狼后便走了。

听了这个故事，感恩这一字眼在我心中油然而生，在一个个字符中，感恩让你清醒。

你有没有想过给母亲洗一次脚，为父亲捶一次背，你有没有体会他们的感受，他们为了你可以赴汤蹈火，如果你生病了，他们会想：如果可以，生病的是我们该多好啊!可是世界上没有如果，要是真有如果，那么还需要感恩吗?不需要，所以世界上没有如果，但感恩不可或缺。因为感恩所以有爱，因为有爱所以感恩。
