Dear friends,

Hello!

How have you been doing? Are you okay? Where did you go this summer

vacation? I now introduce a good place to you, that is my hometown. My hometown

is He Street, which is about 20 kilometers away from the downtown of Hezhou

City. It is surrounded by mountains on all sides with a wide basin in the

middle.

When you are driving on the road, you will involuntarily look around the

surrounding mountains: the mountains on the east are like a giant Chinese

dragon, winding and winding; the mountains on the west are like high humps with

continuous peaks; the mountains on the south are plum red. The small tree on the

hill to the north is green. If you walk on a mountain path and look up at the

blue sky, the blue sky is like a blue belt; looking down on the earth, the earth

is like a beautiful picture. Isnt this living in a fairyland?

When you walk out of the mountains, you will clearly hear the crowing of

chickens, the singing of children and the bells of the mountain village

elementary school. At this time, the appearance of the mountain village will be

revealed before your eyes: a brand-new cement road leads directly to the

entrance of the village; small bungalows are strewn together; under the sun,

industrious people are watering and fertilizing the rice fields. The village

here is like a pearl, inlaid on the placket of the lichen.

When you come to my home, the hospitable grandparents will bring out their

own peanuts, bean sour, radish sour, mung bean porridge and other delicious

things to greet you, and tell you the fun that will never be finished. s

story……

Dear friend, in fact, there is nothing peculiar about my hometown. It can

be said that it cannot be simpler or simpler, but the unique charm of the

mountain and the unique taste of the person are not worth your visit. ? You are

welcome to come and play!

I wish you learning progress! May all go well with you!

Yours,

____

亲爱的朋友：

你好!

你近来好吗?身体还好吧?今年暑假你去哪里玩了?我现在介绍一个好地方给你，那就是我的家乡。我的家乡在贺街，它距贺州市城区约20公里，它四面环山，中间是宽广盆地。

当你乘车走在路上时，你会不由自主地环视四周的群山：东边的山像一条中华巨龙，蜿蜒盘旋;西边的山想高高的驼峰，峰岭连绵;南边的山上李子红了;北边的山上小树绿了。如果你走在山间小路，仰望蓝天，蓝天像一条碧蓝的带子;俯视大地，大地像一幅美丽的图画。这难道不是生活在仙境中吗?

当你从群山中走出来时，就会清晰听见鸡鸣犬叫，还有孩子们的歌声和山村小学的钟声。这时，山村的容貌便会展现在你眼前：一条崭新的水泥路直通村口;一幢幢小洋房错落有致;阳光下，勤劳的人们在稻田里浇水、施肥。这里的村庄就像一颗珍珠，镶嵌在大地衣襟上。

当你来到我的家时，热情好客的爷爷奶奶便会拿出自家产的花生、豆角酸、萝卜酸、绿豆粥等等好吃的东西招呼你，给你讲永远也讲不完的有趣的故事……

亲爱的朋友，其实我的家乡并没有什么奇特之处，可以说简单得不能再简单，朴实得不能再朴实，可是它那山独特的魅力，那人独特的情趣，难道不值得你来看看吗?欢迎你来玩哦!

祝你：学习进步!万事如意!

Ji Anlived at the time of Emperor Wudi of the Western Han Dynasty (206 B.C.-A.D.24). He was respected for being upright and just and for daring to speak the truth. He did not bother about amall matters in personal behaviour and in being an official. He was particular about actual effects and ,although he did not cause a stir ,he could keep the prefecture he governed in perfect order. Because of this. the imperial court transferred him to the central government from being the perfect of the Donghai Prefecture to being a commander in charge of the appointment and dismissal of the local officals.

Once,Emperor Wudi said that he would implement the policy of benevolence and justice of Confucianism and would do good turns to the people.Emperor Wudi Had hardly finished his remards when Ji An said that there was no need for the emperor to say so.Why should the emperor bother,Ji An said, about pretending to implement the policy of benevolence and justice since he was so greedy and avaricious within himself? This choked the emperor off. The emperor suddenly Changed his countenance and declared the meeting over. All the civilian and military officers at court were breathless with anxiety for fear that Ji An might bring disaster upon himself because of this. After returning, Emperor Wudi said to the people around him that Ji An was a little too rude and too straightforward.

For this reason ,Ji An was never promoted again. When he was the commander in charge of the appointment and dismissal of the local officials, both Gongsun Hong and Zhang Tang were low -ranking lfficials of little importance. Later ,they were promoted continuously. Gongsun Hong became the prime minister and Zhang Tang became the imperial censor. However, JiAns post remained thesame. One day, Ji An said to Emperor Wudi that the way the emperor used his ministers was just like piling up firewood, which meant that the latecomers surpassed the old-timers. Of course, Emperor Wudi could see that Ji An was complaining. So,turning to his ministers, Emperor Wudi said, "It is true that no one can stop learning.You see, Ji An is making more and more indiscreet remarks."

This story comes from The Historical Records. Later generations use the set phrase "the latecomers surpass the old-timers " to indicate that successors can cxcel the predecessors, which is quite different from the original idea when Ji An said that the latecomers surpassed the old-timers.

汲黯是西汉武帝时代人，以刚直正义、敢讲真话而受人尊重。他为人和做官都不拘小节，讲求实效。虽然表面上不那么轰轰烈烈，却能把一个郡治理得井井有条，因此，朝廷把他从东海太守调到朝廷当主爵都尉——一种主管地方吏任免的官职。

有一次，汉武帝说要实行儒家的仁义之政，为老百姓办好事了。没等皇帝把话说完，汲黯就说：“陛下内心里那么贪婪多欲，表面上却要装得实行仁政，这是何苦呢？”一句话把皇帝噎了回去。汉武帝登时脸色大变，宣布罢朝，满朝文武都为汲黯捏着一把汗，担心他会因此招来大祸。武帝回到宫里以后，对身边的人说，汲黯这个人也未免太粗太直了。

从此以后，汲黯的官职再也没有提升。他当主爵都尉的时候，公孙弘、张汤都还是不起眼的小官，后来，他们一个劲儿住上升，公孙弘当上了丞相，张汤做上了御史大夫，可他汲黯还蹲在原地没动窝。有一天，汲黯对武帝说，陛下使用群臣，跟码劈柴一样，是“后来者居上”啊！汉武帝当然听得出这是发牢骚。于是，转脸对臣下们说：“人真是不能不学习啊！你们听汲黯说话，越来越离谱了！”

故事出自《史记汲郑列传》。成语“后来居上”，往往指后起的可以胜过先前的。和汲黯说这话的原意，大不相同。
