Dear Mr. Wang,

Hello!

Recently, our class held the "Beautiful Christmas Chorus Competition" activity, I was unable to participate in the school recitation team recording activity, so I feel very sorry.

Remember Monday, you asked the students: "these days there are two festivals - Christmas and New Years Day, which holiday do you want to celebrate? We happen to coincide with the selection of "Christmas", of course, this is also my favorite holiday, it can be seen that we love Christmas in particular. Although, the festival chose my favorite, but when the team leader, not so gratified. You let the students recommend, but for some reason, the students did not choose me. I think, if you can recommend yourself first, then let the students vote on it. Because only let the students recommend or vote, the recommended students may not want to be, while the equivalent students like me, but may not have the opportunity, do you think I said reasonable?

Teacher, in fact, this is a small matter, the most regrettable is not able to spend Christmas with my classmates. How I envied bu Qingyang the other day for his successful participation in the party! Do you know? That afternoon, during the rehearsal of the recitation team, we were absent-minded, dejected and extremely sad.

Teacher, in fact, I understand your work, you are also for our good, I just want to talk with you about my heart.

Birds flew around the woods singing cheerfully and restlessly. Some boys were quietly joggingalong the path, while a couple of girls were reading aloud under the trees lining the bank of thelake.

Although it is generally agreed that the Christmas tree in its current form came from Germany in the early 19th century, the tradition of decorating a tree to mark winter celebrations dates back hundreds of years to Roman times, when they used to decorate evergreen trees with small pieces of metal to celebrate Saturnalia.

In medieval times the Paradise Play was performed every year on 24 December. This depicted the creation of Man and the fall of Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden and always included an evergreen hung with apples which represented the apple tree of temptation.

There is a legend that St Boniface, an English monk, came upon a group of pagans gathered around an oak tree who were preparing to sacrifice a child to the God Thor. In order to stop the sacrifice, and save the childs life, St Boniface is said to have felled the tree with one blow of his fist. Later on, a fir tree grew in place of the oak and this, St Boniface told the pagans, was the Tree of Life and represented the Christ Child.

Legend also suggests that, in the late 16th century, Martin Luther (the founder of the Protestant religion) was the first to decorate an indoor tree with candles when he attempted to recreate the stars shining over a forest of evergreens.

The first mention of decorated trees being taken indoors came in 1605 in Germany - a country with a long Christmas tree history! The trees were initially decorated with fruit and sweets together with hand made objects such as quilled snowflakes and stars. German Christmas Markets began to sell shaped gingerbreads and wax ornaments which people bought as souvenirs of the fair and took home to hang on their tree.

Tinsel was also invented in Germany in about 1610. Up until fairly recently real silver was used, which was pulled into wafer thin strips by special machines. This was durable but tarnished quickly and many experiments took place to try and find an alternative - including a mix of lead and tin, which was too heavy and kept breaking. It was only in the mid 20th century that a viable alternative was found.

Artificial trees were invented in the 1880s in a bid to try and stop some of the damage being caused to real trees due to people lopping the tip off large trees, thus preventing the trees from growing any further. It got so bad in Germany that laws had to be brought in to prevent people having more than one tree.

Prince Albert, husband of Queen Victoria, is credited with being responsible for introducing the custom of the Christmas tree to the British public by decorating the first English Christmas tree at Windsor Castle in 1841 using candles, sweets, fruit and gingerbread.

The popularity of the Christmas tree grew in Britain during the first half of the 20th century, with trees becoming bigger and more elaborately decorated with bells, baubles and tinsel. However, the onset of the Second World War resulted in a ban on cutting down trees for decoration and people resorted to having small, artificial tabletop trees bearing home made decorations. These were often taken down into the air raid shelters when the sirens sounded to provide a bit of Christmas cheer!

This all changed following the war, and large trees were erected in many public places to celebrate Christmas. The most famous of these is the tree in Trafalgar Square, London which is an annual gift from the Norwegian government to give thanks for the help they received from Britain during the war.

The imperial palace, also known as the Forbidden City, is the imperial palace of the Ming and qing dynasties, which is the largest and most complete ancient architectural complex in China. I especially want to know the architecture of ancient palaces and the living environment of ancient emperors.

One weekend in the golden autumn, the sun is shining and the autumn wind is crisp. My mother and I went to visit the Palace Museum in the center of the city. I was very happy.

Enter the gate of the Forbidden City, "wow! Its so big here!" I couldnt help it. The mother said, "the most spectacular is still in the back!" We first visited the architectural model of the imperial palace and its construction. I know that the imperial palace covers an area of over 720,000 square meters, with more than 9,000 rooms, all wooden structures, and all the wooden structures have no nails. The palace is the blue and white stone base, the tall roof, the yellow glazed tile, the pattern of the dragon everywhere, and decorated with the brilliant color of the golden wall. I observed all the palaces, and found that the palaces were lined up along the north-south axis, and spread out to the sides, to the north and south, and to the right and left. I told mom, I found mother listen to nod a smile, said: "the central axis not only in the Forbidden City, and nanda YongDingMen, north to the drum tower, almost throughout the whole city. Its magnificent, well-planned and spectacular.

We have been visiting the taihe temple from the imperial garden. What a breathtaking view! In the Forbidden City, the most striking is the "three halls" : the hall of supreme harmony, the hall of harmony, the hall of protection and the temple. They are all built on the 8-meter-high base of the white jade, which looks like the qiong yuyu in the myth. The first hall of supreme harmony was the most magnificent building. People called it the "throne room". It was the place where the emperor held the grand ceremony. It is 28 meters high, 63 meters, 35 meters north and south, and a large pillar with a diameter of 1 meter. Among them, six large pillars, one meter in diameter around the throne, are flat dragon pillars of leached gold. The throne is located at the base of the two meters high in the temple, with the graceful crane and the top of the furnace, followed by a carefully carved screen. The whole hall is decorated with golden walls, which are both majestic and magnificent. The hall of neutralization was the place where the emperor went to the hall of supreme harmony to take a rest and exercise etiquette. Baohe and the temple are the place where the emperor gives banquet to the king of the foreign land every New Year. This is just the palace buildings, and house decoration is numerous, the rarities of the mother said: "these treasures is only part of it, when Chiang kai-shek fled to Taiwan carried away many treasure palace, there are some loss in a foreign country". I feel sorry for the loss of these treasures. When will these lost treasures return to the embrace of the motherland? I am looking forward to the reunion of Taiwan and mainland as soon as possible.

The visit of the Forbidden City made me linger. The Palace Museum is an unparalleled masterpiece. It is a miracle. Our five thousand years of Chinese culture are profound and profound, and we should be proud and proud to have built such a magnificent palace for the ancients. At the same time, we also have the responsibility to protect these cultural relics from destruction, so that the five thousand years of splendid civilization of the motherland will be handed down.

Christmas or Christmas Day is a holiday celebrating the birth of Jesus, the central figure of Christianity. It is traditionally celebrated on December 25 by most Western Christian churches. Although dating to probably as early as a.d. 200, the feast of Christmas did not become widespread until the Middle Ages. Aspects of celebration may include gift-giving, Christmas trees, display of Nativity sets, church attendance, the Father Christmas/Santa Claus myth, and family gatherings. The word Christmas is derived from Middle English Christemasse. It is a contraction meaning "Christs mass". The name of the holiday is often shortened to Xmas because Roman letter "X" resembles the Greek letter X, an abbreviation for Christ.

【知识延伸】关于“清明节”的英文介绍

Qing Ming Jie(All Souls Day)

Qing Ming is a time to remember the dead and the dearly departed. More important, it is a period to honour and to pay respect to ones deceased ancestors and family members. Because it reinforces the ethic of filial piety, Qing Ming is a major Chinese festival.

Literally meaning "clear" (Qing) and "bright" (Ming), this Chinese festival falls in early spring, on the 106th day after the winter solstice. It is a "spring" festival, and it is an occasion for the whole family to leave the home and to sweep the graves of their forebears. Chinese being practical people this sweeping of the graves is given an extended period, that is, 10 days before and after Qing Ming day. Among some dialect groups a whole month is allocated.

清明节是一个纪念祖先的节日。主要的纪念仪式是扫墓，扫墓是慎终追远、郭亲睦邻及行孝的具体表现;基于上述意义，清明节因此成为华人的重要节日。清明节是在仲春和暮春之交，也就是冬至后的106天。扫墓活动通常是在清明节的前十天或后十天。有些地域的人士的扫墓活动长达一个月。

ORIGIN(起源)

Qing Ming is popularly associated with Jie Zi Zhui, who lived in Shanxi province in 600 B.C. Legend has it that Jie saved his starving lords life by serving a piece of his own leg. When the lord succeeded in becoming the ruler of a small principality, he invited his faithful follower to join him. However, Jie declined his invitation, preferring to lead a hermits life with his mother in the mountains.

Believing that he could force Jie out by burning the mountain, the lord ordered his men to set the forest on fire. To his consternation, Jie chose to remain where he was and was burnt to death. To commemorate Jie, the lord ordered all fires in every home to be put out on the anniversary of Jies death. Thus began the "cold food feast", a day when no food could be cooked since no fire could be lit.

The "cold food" festival occurs on the eve of Qing Ming and is often considered as part of the Qing Ming festival. As time passes, the Qing Ming festival replaced the "cold food" festival. Whatever practice is observed，the basic observation of Qing Ming is to remember ones elders by making a special effort to visit their graves, ashes or ancestral tablets. To make the visit even more meaningful, some time should be spent to remind the younger members of the family of the lives and contributions of their ancestors, and the story of Jie Zi Zhui who choose death over capitulation.

谈到清明节，有点历史知识的人，都会联想到历史人物介子椎。据历史记载，在两千多年以前的春秋时代，晋国公子重耳逃亡在外，生活艰苦，跟随他的介子椎不惜从自己的腿上割下一块肉让他充饥。后来，重耳回到晋国，作了国君(即晋文公，春秋五霸之一)，大事封赏所有跟随他流亡在外的随从，惟独介子椎拒绝接受封赏，他带了母亲隐居绵山。

晋文公无计可施，只好放火烧山，他想，介子椎孝顺母亲，一定会带着老母出来。谁知这场大火却把介子椎母子烧死了。为了纪念介子椎，晋文公下令每年的这一天，禁止生火，家家户户只能吃生冷的食物，这就是寒食节的来源。

寒食节是在清明节的前一天，古人常把寒食节的活动延续到清明，久而久之，清明取代了寒食节。拜介子椎的习俗也变成了清明扫墓的习俗了。无论以何种形式纪念，为了使纪念祖先的仪式更有意义，我们应该让年轻一代的家庭成员了解先人过去的奋斗历史，当然，还要学习介子椎宁死不屈的气节。

雪越下越大，如同柳絮一般，银一样的白，玉一样的润，一朵朵、一簇簇，纷纷扬扬、冉冉飘落，闪着寒冷的银光。人们常说雪无情，正是它无情，才冻死了那么多害虫，保住了庄稼的生长。

这时，一片雪花沾到窗户上，又立刻化了。雪也许会在停了以后，很快就化了。我真有点舍不得它们化掉。但是，雪终究会化的。但它短暂的“生命”却能够保护植物，湿润并清洁空气。我认为它是最无私的，它在默默地奉献着它的“一生”。我想，人的一生也是短暂的，我们要珍惜。

多美的雪啊!

In everyone’s life, most people have some experience and career which are affected by someone. It is difficult for you to forget them and what they affected you because they have taught you something of importance in your life, also it changed your life. It is difficult for me to forget that my older sister who is 4-year older than me has taught me something which were important in my life.

It is fortunate thing for me that I have two sisters, and they are all my loved ones. When I was child, I was jealous of another children who have older brother. When they got some trouble with other another children who has no older brother, they let their older brother to help them and they always got win even though they were wrong. This thought was ridiculous when I recognized that having an older sister is wonderful thing for me especially when I was youth.

In my memory, my older sister was a pretty and not tall girl when she was in high school, and she had two long braids. She got a job when she just graduated for senior high school because my mother’s health was not in good situation and she though that she should earn some money to reduce my parents afford. I was in junior high school when she got her job. I was clever and excellent student when I was in elementary school. But when I was in junior high school, everything was totally changed, I was also clever but I could not get good grade, I was confused and disappointment. My sister advised me to change my study method. She told me that you should not think that finishing your homework is only one thing you need to do after school. You are in high school now, you need to study your textbook more and think about some question more. In order to help me to do it effectively, she studied with me and explained some question for me after her work.
