It is quite usual that one meets failures, for ones life can never be

plain sailing. However, different people hold different attitudes towards

failure. Some people think it a heavy blow to fail in achieving something and

they can not endure failure. When they meet failure, they will be seriously

dejected and can never pluck up their courage to try again.

遇到失败这是很平常，因为人的生命不可能一帆风顺。然而，不同的人对失败持有不同的态度。获取某些东西失败对有些人来说是一个沉重的打击，他们不能承受失败。当他们失败，他们将非常的沮丧并且不能鼓起勇气再试一次。

However, others think it natural to meet failures in ones career.

Therefore, they are psychologically prepared. When they meet failures, they will

not be frustrated. Instead, they will continue to meet new challenges. As to me,

Im in favor of the latter view. Failure is really a terrible thing but it is

also the mother of success. If one draws lessons from failures, in most cases he

will get success in the future. Furthermore, ones life can never be smooth

sailing; it must be full of difficulies and setbacks. If one is daunted by

difficulies and frustrations, he will always be a failure. However, if one holds

a positive attitude toward failure, he will overcome difficulties and

frustrations to win victory.

然而，其他人认为，在自己的职业生涯中的败是很自然的。因此，他们的心理有所准备。当他们遇到失败，他们不会失意。相反，他们将继续迎接新的挑战。就我而言，我赞成后一种观点。失败是一个可怕的事情，但它是成功之母。如果一个灵感来自失败的教训，在大多数情况下，他将在未来获得成功。此外，一个人的生活永远不会是一帆风顺的;它必须是充满困难和挫折。如果一个人被困难和挫折吓倒，他将永远是一个失败者。然而，如果耸对失败持有积极的态度，他将克服困难和挫折，赢得胜利。

Dream is public property, everyone has a dream, there were dreams to struggle the rights. The poor are poor, because there is no struggle for the dream of courage and perseverance; The rich are rich because they fight for a dream. What can dream? Must have different definition in everybodys heart. Some people think that the dream is false; Others think unattainable dream, it really... ; I think: the dream regardless of high and low, regardless of their size, there is no false and true.

I have met all kinds of people in the pursuit of dreams, some of them because of others opposition, sitting there hesitation, some because they cant do, sitting in the depressed; Others because of his dream too far-fetched, therefore, give up your dream. I am sad also very puzzled: "why do they give up their dreams? Yao is hard work can realize their dreams, and look forward to success. But, they dont have to do so, they chose to escape?"

The ancients there is a saying: "there are paying is not necessarily return, but not paid will not return". Whether did finally get the corresponding return, but I believe that: in the stick to dream on the way, there must be a make us unexpected harvest. And, of course, everyone has the value of life in this world, there are some an unrealized dream, chasing for the dream, struggle for the dream. Dream is everyones right to the pursuit of the process is also enjoy the process. To dream into reality at that moment, you will feel the joy and pride.

So, how important it is for a dream. However, in the process of realizing our dreams, dont let the problem by the nose, but toward the dreams, let the dream for your navigation. Sometimes the biggest obstacle to achieve your dreams tend to be yourself. Love spell will win, as long as toward a target unremitting struggle finally will belong to you.

梦想是大家公共财产，每个人都有梦想，都有为梦想而奋斗的权利。穷人之所以穷，是因为没有为梦想而奋斗的勇气与可毅力;富人之所以富，是因为他们为梦想而奋斗拼搏。可梦想到底是什么?想必在每个人心中都有不同的定义。有的人认为梦想是虚假的;有的人则认为梦想高不可攀，它实在……;我认为：梦想不分高低，不分大小，也没有虚假与真实之分。

我曾经见到了各种在追求梦想的人，他们有的因遭到别人的反对，坐在那里犹豫不决，有的因碰到自己无法做的事，坐在那垂头丧气;还有的人因自己的梦想太遥不可及，因此，放弃了自己的梦想。我既难过也很不解：“为什么他们要放弃自己的梦想呢?明明是努力就可以实现自己的梦想，从而走向成功的。但是，他们没有这么做，而是选择了逃避呢?”

古人有句话说：“有付出不一定有回报，但不付出就一定没有回报”。不管最后有没有得到相应的回报，但我相信：在坚守梦想的路途中，一定会有令我们意想不到的收获。当然，每一个人都有生活在这个世界上的价值，都有一些未圆的梦，为梦而追逐，为梦而奋斗。追求梦想是每个人的权利，追求的过程也是享受的过程。到梦想变成现实的那一刻，你会感到无比喜悦，自豪。

由此可见，梦想是多么重要。不过，在实现梦想的过程中，不要被问题牵着鼻子走，而是朝着梦想前进，让梦想为自己导航。有时实现梦想的最大障碍往往是自己。爱拼才会赢，只要朝着一个目标奋斗不懈最后的灿烂将会属于你。

One Sunday my mother (Mother) had (made) me take my little young brother to

the a trip to the country。 She bade me take good care of him。

While we were walking along the road， the sun was shining brightly and the

breeze was blowing gently。 We saw the beautiful flowers smile (smiling) at us

and heard the birds sing (singing) their sweet songs on the trees。 The scenery

was indeed very pretty (beautiful)。

When we felt tired， we returned home。 We saw Mother (our mother) wait

(waiting) for us at the door。

有一个星期日，我母亲叫我带小弟弟去乡村游历。她吩咐我要好好照料他。

当我们沿着道路行走的时候，太阳灿烂地照耀着，微风轻轻地吹着。我们看见美丽的花儿对我们微笑着，并听见鸟儿在树上唱着悦耳的歌曲，风景实十分美丽。

当我们感觉到疲倦的时候，我们就回家了。我们看见母样正在门口等候我们。

This morning, my father took me to school by bike. I sat at the back of the bike, eating a banana. After I ate it up, I threw the skin onto the street randomly.

今天早晨，爸爸骑车带我去上学。我坐在后车座上，吃着香蕉。吃完后，我顺手将香蕉皮扔到了街上。

No sooner had I done this than I realized that I had done something bad to our environment. And maybe someone would step on it and tumble over. I must pick it up. Thinking of these, I asked father to stop. I jumped off the bike and ran back to pick up the banana skin and threw it into a roadside dustbin. Seeing this, father praised me and I felt very happy.

我马上意识到我的所作所为破坏了我们的环境，或许有人会踩在上面而跌倒，我必须把它拾起来。想到这些，我让爸爸停车。我跳下自行车，跑回去拾起香蕉皮，并扔到了路边的垃圾箱里。看到这些，爸爸表扬了我。我感到很高兴。

In future I will protect the surroundings more consciously and think more about others.

将来我要更自觉地保护周围的环境，更多地为他人着想。

Happiness exists everywhere. Everyone has different definitions of happiness.幸福存在于每个地方。每个人对幸福的定义都不同。

Some people think possessing a great deal of money is the secret to happiness, while others feel giving aid to others makes them happy. I approve of the latter.有的人认为拥有大笔钱是幸福的秘诀，而有的人感觉给予别人帮助会让自己感到幸福。我同意后者。

There are many poor people in our society, and we can contribute some money to charities to help them. When the poor receive our assistance, their lives will be improved. Smiles will appear on their faces, and this is the best reward we can get from helping others. When we see their happy smiles, we will be happy as well.社会中有很多穷人，我们可以捐一些钱到慈善机构帮助他们。当那些穷人得到帮助的时候，他们的生活会得到改善。他们的脸上会充满微笑，这也是我们帮助他们所得到的最好的回报。当我们看到他们快乐的笑容，我们也会感到很幸福。

So I think that true happiness comes from the heart.所以我认为真正的幸福来自我们的内心。

小作者通过写给予别人帮助所得到的快乐，说明真正的幸福来自内心，而并非金钱。

Christmas， annual Christian holiday commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ。 Most members of the Roman Catholic Church and followers of Protestantism celebrate Christmas on December 25， and many celebrate on the evening of December 24 as well。 Members of the Eastern Orthodox Church usually delay their most important seasonal ceremonies until January 6， when they celebrate Epiphany， a commemoration of the baptism of Jesus。 Epiphany also traditionally commemorates the arrival of the Three Wise Men of the East in Bethlehem （near Jerusalem， Israel）， where they adored the infant Jesus and presented him with gifts of gold， frankincense， and myrrh。 The official Christmas season， popularly known as either Christmastide or the Twelve Days of Christmas， extends from the anniversary of Christ’s birth on December 25 to the feast of Epiphany on January 6。  Christmas is based on the story of Jesus’ birth as described in the Gospel according to Matthew （see Matthew 1：18—2：12） and the Gospel according to Luke （see Luke 1：26—56）。 Roman Catholics first celebrated Christmas， then known as the Feast of the Nativity， as early as 336 ad。 The word Christmas entered the English language sometime around 1050 as the Old English phrase Christes maesse， meaning festival of Christ。 Scholars believe the frequently used shortened form of Christmas—Xmas—may have come into use in the 13th century。 The X stands for the Greek letter chi， an abbreviation of Khristos （Christ）， and also represents the cross on which Jesus was crucified。

12月25日，是基督教徒纪念耶稣诞生的日子，称为圣诞节。从12月24日于翌年1月6日为圣诞节节期。节日期间，各国基督教徒都举行隆重的纪念仪式。圣诞节本来是基督教徒的节日，由于人们格外重视，它便成为一个全民性的节日，是西方国家一年中最盛大的节日，可以和新年相提并论，类似我国过春节。西方人以红、绿、白三色为圣诞色，圣诞节来临时家家户户都要用圣诞色来装饰。红色的有圣诞花和圣诞蜡烛。绿色的是圣诞树。它是圣诞节的主要装饰品，用砍伐来的杉、柏一类呈塔形的常青树装饰而成。上面悬挂着五颜六色的彩灯、礼物和纸花，还点燃着圣诞蜡烛。红色与白色相映成趣的是圣诞老人，他是圣诞节活动中最受欢迎的人物。西方儿童在圣诞夜临睡之前，要在壁炉前或枕头旁放上一只袜子，等候圣诞老人在他们入睡后把礼物放在袜子内。在西方，扮演圣诞老人也是一种习俗。

南朝有个叫江淹的文人，小时候很有名气，写过着名的《恨赋》。当官以后，他不再努力追求学问，才思渐衰，再也写不出好的作品了。后来人们用“江郎才尽”来比喻这种人。我在学校里成绩还算不错，很少让老师和家长操心。人不可能十全十美，我也一样，美中不足的是字体不够漂亮。在二年级的时候学习了王献之苦练书法的课文，使我明白了做任何一件事，只要坚持、努力，就一定会成功。我要学习王献之勤学苦练的精神，不做江淹自我满足的那种人。

When asked about their opinion of career and family, people always respond differently. Some people deem it more important to pursue their career, while there are always other people who argue that family should be the number one in one’s life.

It goes without any question that career plays a key role in our life. In the very first place, career can give us an aim to live on. Without career, much of our living time will be certainly wasted. What’s more, career can provide us with a means to live on. Most of the people earn their income from a job. On the other hand, family is also an indispensable part of life, as many people will admit. Family is always regarded as a place where we can escape from troubles in life. In addition, we can obtain a sense of belonging to from family. Without it, anyone will feel lonely and desperate.

In my opinion, career and family are not in opposition to each other. Rather, they can enhance each other so that one’s life can become better and better. Therefore, it’s not a choice between right and wrong, but one between ideal and practical.

毫无疑问，任何事业在我们生活中起着关键作用。在第一个地方，可以给我们一个职业生涯的目标是生活。没有职业生涯中，大部分时间我们的生活一定会被浪费。更重要的是，职业生涯可以提供一种手段，对我们的生活。大多数人从工作中赚取的收入。另一方面，家庭也是生活中不可缺少的一部分，因为很多人会承认。家庭一直被认为是一个地方，我们可以摆脱生活中的麻烦。此外，我们可以得到一个属于家庭的感觉。没有它，人会感到孤独和绝望。

在我看来，职业和家庭是不反对对方。相反，它们可以加强彼此，使自己的生活能够越来越好。因此，它不是对与错之间的选择，但理想和现实之间的一个。

Halloween (or Halloween) is an annual holiday observed on October 31, which commonly includes activities such as trick-or-treating, attending costume parties, carving jack-o-lanterns, bonfires, apple bobbing, visiting haunted attractions, playing pranks, telling scary stories, and watching horror films.

History

Historian Nicholas Rogers, exploring the origins of Halloween, notes that while "some folklorists have detected its origins in the Roman feast of Pomona, the goddess of fruits and seeds, or in the festival of the dead called Parentalia, it is more typically linked to the Celtic festival of Samhain, whose original spelling was Samuin (pronounced sow-an or sow-in)".The name is derived from Old Irish and means roughly "summers end".Snap-Apple Night (1832) by Daniel Maclise.Depicts apple bobbing and divination games at a Halloween party in Blarney, Ireland.The name Halloween and many of its present-day traditions derive from the Old English era.

The word Halloween is first attested in the 16th century and represents a Scottish variant of the fuller All-Hallows-Even ("evening"), that is, the night before All Hallows Day.[4] Although the phrase All Hallows is found in Old English (ealra hālgena mæssedæg, mass-day of all saints), All-Hallows-Even is itself not attested until 1556.

11月1日 -- 万圣节 All Saints Day

11月2日 -- 墨西哥的鬼节 Day of Death

万圣节(All Saints Day, All Hallows Day或Hallowmas) 是每年11月1日的欧美大节日。

Halloween 是 All Hallows Eve 的缩写，万圣节前夜的意思，指10月31日的晚上。

For thousands of years people have been celebrating different holidays and festivals at the end of October. The Celts celebrated it as Samhain (pronounced “sow-in”, with “sow” rhyming with cow)。 The Irish English dictionary published by the Irish Texts Society defines the word as follows:

“Samhain, All Hallowtide, the feast of the dead in Pagan and Christian times, signalizing the close of harvest and the initiation of the winter season, lasting till May, during which troops (esp. the Fiann) were quartered. Faeries were imagined as particularly active at this season. From it the half year is reckoned. also called Feile Moingfinne (Snow Goddess)。(1) The Scottish Gaelis Dictionary defines it as ”Hallowtide. The Feast of All Soula. Sam + Fuin = end of summer.“(2) Contrary to the information published by many organizations, there is no archaeological or literary evidence to indicate that Samhain was a deity. The Celtic Gods of the dead were Gwynn ap Nudd for the British, and Arawn for the Welsh. The Irish did not have a ”lord of death“ as such.

The Celts believed that every year on the last day of October, the souls of the dead visited the earth.www.

When the Romans conquered the Celts in the first century A.D., they added parts of their festivals, Feralia and Pomona to the tradition. Feralia was a festival to honor the dead and Pomona was a harvest festival named after the goddess of fruit (apples) and trees.

Around the eigth century, the Christian church made November 1 All Saints Day to honor all of the saints that didnt have a special day of their own. Over the years these festivals combined, the mass held on All Saints Day was called Allhallowmas (the mass of all Hallows - saintly people)。 The night before was known as All Hallows Eve. Eventually this name became Halloween.

In the 1800s, as a lot of people emigrated to the U.S., the holidays and traditions of different cultures merged. Halloween was not always a happy time. October 31, or the night before took on other names. Some called it Devils or Hell night, to others it was mischief night. Here in Vermont, the night before is called cabbage night. To some people this became a time to play tricks on others. Some of these tricks were not fun at all. Luckily, community groups and individuals took action and started to change Halloween into a family event. Dressing up in costumes and going ”trick or treating“, costume parades, community parties and Fall festivals are some of the ways that Halloween is celebrated today.

Other countries have different Fall festivals to honor the deceased.

The Festival of the Dead is one of the most important happenings in both Palermo and the rest of Sicily. The second of November is a festival day for the children of Palermo as, according to tradition,they were made to believe that their dead relatives would return the night before and leave them traditional sweets and cakes on the table (Martorana fruit, which is almond paste made into the shape of different fruit)。 They would also receive puppets of boiled sugar and toys. Its one way of keeping the memory of their dead relatives and loved ones alive.

一年中最”闹鬼“的这天夜里，各种妖魔鬼怪、 海盗、 外星来客和巫婆们纷纷出动。在基督纪元以前，凯尔特人在夏未举行仪式感激上苍和太阳的恩惠。

当时的占卜者点燃并施巫术以驱赶据说在四周游荡的妖魔怪。后来，罗马人用果仁和苹果来庆祝的丰收节与凯尔特人的10月31日溶合了。

在中世纪，人们穿上动物造型的服饰、 戴上可怕的面具是想在万圣节前夜驱赶黑夜中的鬼怪。尽管後来基督教代替了凯尔特和罗马的宗教活动，早期的习俗还是保留下来了。现在，孩子们带着开玩笑的心理穿戴上各种服饰和面具参加万圣节舞会，这些舞会四周的墙上往往悬挂着用纸糊的巫婆、 黑猫、 鬼怪和尸骨，窗前和门口则吊着龇牙裂嘴或是面目可憎的南瓜灯笼。孩子们还常常试图咬住悬挂着的苹果。

美国和加拿大的孩子们在这天穿戴上古怪的服饰去按邻居家的门铃，并按传统发出”是款待我还是要我耍花招“的威胁。邻居们不管是否被吓着，总是准备了一些糖果、 苹果等点心，孩子们则一一收入自己的袋内。

万圣节其实不是基督教的节日。2500年前，爱尔兰的凯尔特人(Celts)以10月31日为一年的最後一日，11月1日是新一年的开始，也象徵冬天的来临。

凯尔特人相信死亡之神Samhain在10月31日的晚上会和鬼魂一起重返人间，寻找替身。因此他们燃点火炬，焚烧动物以作为死亡之神的献礼。还会用动物的头或皮毛做成的服饰打扮自己，发出古怪的声音，使死亡之神认不出自己，避过灾难。这就是今天万圣节化妆舞会的由来。过了当晚，鬼魂回到阴间，一切回复平静。

基督教兴起，教徒沿袭万圣节传统，万圣节的意义慢慢改为纪念为献身於神而死亡的人(holies)。

附带一提，11月2日是墨西哥的鬼节(Los Dias de los Muertos, Day of the Dead)。当天家家户户都烘烤动物造型的面包和煮鸡肉等食物，并在供桌上面放置玩具，以期待早逝的孩童们回到家中玩耍。也可以陈列鲜花、 水果、 照片和彩绘的骷髅头，接待仙逝长辈。

墨西哥人认为，鬼魂和人一样需要及时行乐，所以鬼节宛若一场嘉年华会，人们带着面具到处游走，吃骷髅形状的糖，面包上还装饰有鬼的形像。黄昏时刻，全家人一起到墓园清理墓地，妇女们或跪或坐整夜祈祷，男人们交谈或唱歌，在子夜中烛光忽闪忽灭充满了整个墓园，游唱歌者为已逝亡者的灵魂高歌吟唱。

每当秋高气爽、菊花飘香的时节，我们又一次迎来了一个特殊的节日——重阳节。

重阳节是在每年农历的九月初九举办，那时候，许多老奶奶们跳舞、唱歌为自己过重阳。九九重阳正赶“九”，又代表着中华人民的喜悦、兴奋。

重阳节的种种风俗习惯，不辜负这大好光景，增添了这个秋天的快乐，有多少人画上了这个秋天的快乐，为多少人画上了一丝微笑，它看不见，摸不着，要发自内心去感受。秋天是野游的好季节，可到郊外去“采青”啊，登山啊，或者再搞搞对身体有益的活动，这是对身体非常好的哦。我国已经把九九重阳节定为老年人的节日。同学们，九月初九时，你为爷爷奶奶、外公外婆做了什么，怎样让他们过得难忘，快乐呢?听听我的亲身经历吧。

又一次九月初九了，天上、屋顶上……到处是秋天的身影，大地都披上了一层厚而蓬松的金沙，金灿灿的，亮晶晶的。我看了看日历，原来今天是九月初九，九九是重阳节呀，是长辈们的节日，我怎么会忘了呢，应该向她送什么礼物呀。我想了好一会儿，想不好呀。正当我心情烦躁时，我随手拿了一张报纸，看见了“重阳节”这三个字，喜出望外，认真地阅读起报纸来，报上清楚地写着每当重阳节时，做子孙的应该陪自己的长辈出去到郊外。散散心，吃吃糕点，看看菊花，这就是最好的礼物，体验这个秋天带来的幸福。看了这张报纸，我的心里有了小算盘

我走到奶奶跟前，想考考外婆的记性就笑着说：“外婆，你知道今天是什么日子吗?”外婆疑惑地说：“哦……哦……哦，是你的生日吧?”“不是，不是，我生日早过了好几个月了。”外婆又思索起来，“难道今天是你妈妈的生日?”“更不是了，今天是重阳节，是你们的节日。”外婆恍然大悟，笑了。我又继续说：“我陪您出去玩玩吧!”我和外婆出发了。我和外婆一边说，一边走，走得更远了。我们看着清澈的池水，饱览壮丽的山色，顿时感觉神清气爽。我和外婆不知不觉度过了一天可爱的重阳节

天暗下来了，妈妈爸爸回来了，还带了一袋糕点，可真是雪中送炭啊。正准备给外婆过重阳节。上面缀着各种花纹，有的是嵌着几棵小草……我们一家人围坐在餐桌前，津津有味地尝起了糕点，可好吃了。外婆笑了，像年轻了几岁。

Qixi festival this evening, mother told me that today is "Tanabata", was the day of meet niulang and zhinv, stand under the grape trellis legend can also hear niulang and zhinv! Today the first day they met, will cry. I waited and waited, sleeping of time really flew voice to be heard, I guess it must be niulang and zhinv crying! They cry so long, so loud. They can meet a year, its really impressive!

If my mother and I see a year, suddenly one day meet again, that is how happy and excited! Before I thought of my mother and I see the "goddess marriage", "goddess marriage" of dong yong is a cowherd, hand-woven cloth is female, they lived a happy life, god make the snake will go to the human grasp hand-woven cloth, caught the hand-woven cloth ran, dong yong after, soon after, the gods with gold zan between niulang and zhinv drew a line, this is the Milky Way, they can only be fated, allowing them to July 15 meet every year, this is the source of the Chinese valentines day, July 15 separated them, however, they must have said not over words, endless things to do. I hope they never separated.

七夕节今天晚上，妈妈告诉我今天是“七夕节”，是牛郎和织女见面的日子，传说站在葡萄架下还可以听到牛郎和织女说话呢！今天他们第一天见面，一定会哭的。我等啊等啊，睡觉的时候果然听见哗哗哗的声音，我猜想一定是牛郎和织女在哭呢！他们哭得时间那么长，声音那么大。他们一年才能见一面，真令人难忘啊！

假如我和妈妈一年不见，突然有一天见面了，那是多么开心、激动啊！我想起以前我和妈妈看的《天仙配》，《天仙配》里的董永就是牛郎，七仙女就是织女，他们过着幸福的生活，天神让蛇将去人间抓七仙女，抓到七仙女就跑，董永后面追，快要追到了，天神在牛郎和织女之间用金簪划了一条线，这就是银河，他们只能隔河相望，允许他们每年的七月十五见一面，这就是七夕的来源，不过七月十五就把他们分开了，他们一定有说不完的话，办不完的事。我希望他们永远不要分开。

Winter solstice is a traditional Chinese holiday, the day also started preparing our family.

December 21, this is a special day, it has a winter festival festival, and the end of the world of fear, but fear of fear, holiday or want, according to our customs, in this area, the winter solstice festival to eat the delicious round on the winter solstice, a listen to mom said to eat round, I am pleased to jump three feet high, who called me is the winter solstice round loyal fans, love for winter solstice round consistently, and a large number of fantasy in my mind, in a flash, brain and my little heart was full of joy.

Mother carefully the rice noodles, out of the refrigerator, pour in a large pot, add half a spoonful of water, washed their hard rub, after a few minutes later, when the soft and sticky dough in the hands of the mother that creations was born, big, white, no trace of the end of the world of darkness; Bright, wet, seem to herald the peace of the world. "Rabbits, shrimp, pig tail, dont pickled cucumbers, pickle beef round, please ma meters below pickled cucumbers." I shouted for which a neighbor I dont know, today the winter solstice festival the important festivals. My mother and I made a lot of cartoon circle on the winter solstice, carefully cooked.

Fire pot, a roast of thick heat teng on the sky, I was idly watching book, only heard mother cried out "to eat" I like a head of looking for food in the wild boar, breaking into the kitchen, but stupefied, sick to my little cartoon winter solstice circle "lie" in the dish, I caught a, well, very nice!

From the winter solstice this holiday I feel a lot of Chinese traditional essence.

冬至是中国传统的节日，这天我们家也开始了各种准备。

十二月二十一日，这是一个特殊的日子，它拥有冬至节的喜庆，又有世界末日的害怕，但害怕归害怕，节日还是要过的，按我们这一带的习俗，，冬至节要吃美味的冬至圆，一听妈妈说要吃冬至圆，我高兴地一蹦三尺高，谁叫我是冬至圆的忠诚粉丝呢，对冬至圆的爱始终如一，，大批幻想不断涌入我的脑海中，刹那，大脑和我那小小的心灵充满着欢乐。

妈妈小心翼翼地从冰箱里取出米粉，，倒在一个大盆子里，加上半勺水，洗过手使劲搓，经过数时分钟后，又软又黏的面团便在妈妈那鬼斧神工的手中诞生了，大大的，白白的，没有一丝世界末日的黑暗;亮亮的，湿湿的，似乎预示着世界的和平。“兔子们，虾米们，猪尾巴，不要酱瓜，咸菜牛圆了，下面请麻米酱瓜。”我高呼着生怕哪一个邻居不知道——今天冬至节这个重要节日。我和妈妈做了许多的卡通冬至圆，小心翼翼地进行烹煮。

大火烘烤着锅底，一股股热气腾上天空，我正悠闲地看着书，只听见妈妈叫了一声“吃饭”我便如一头寻觅食物的野猪，闯进厨房，可却呆若木鸡，我的小卡通冬至圆病歪歪地“卧”在盘子里，我夹了一个，嗯，真不错!

从冬至这个节日我感觉到了很多中国传统的精华。

Mothers Day

Mothers Day comes on the second Sunday in May each year. On that day this year, I bought a sweater and some flowers for my mother to thank her for her hard work for me. Receiving my gift, my mother was very happy.

In the morning, I open the window can not help but surprised ah said: "what a big snow!" The roof, the ground, the tree, all covered with snow. Air coarsened wires, fluffy like white coral.

A few students to help wang at this moment, the two sides began to rally, a snowball into my neck, "good cold!" I withdrew from the battlefield.

The bell rang, we reluctantly back to the classroom.

早晨，我打开窗户不禁惊呀地说了一声：“好大的雪呀!”房顶上，地上，树上，都挂满了雪。空中的电线变粗了，毛绒绒的就像白珊瑚一样。

吃过早饭，我向学校走去，脚踩在雪里发出“咯吱咯吱”的响声，后面还有一串小脚印。来到学校，同学们正在玩滑冰，还有三人一组或两人一组，一个人一不小心摔倒了后面的同学也歪歪扭扭地倒在地上，大家互相搀扶着起来，你看看我，我看看你，“哈哈”地笑作一团，还有一个同学站在操场中间正望着雪景忽然另一个同学向他投了一个雪球，那个同学先是一愣，反应过来之后当然也是“以礼相带”了，这样一场激烈的雪仗开使了!

下课铃响了，寂静的操场上顿时沸腾起来，有的堆雪人，有的打雪仗。瞧!王老师正在笑咪咪的“坐山观虎斗”。忽然一个雪球朝他飞去，可是他只有招架之功而无还手之力!这时几个同学去帮王老师，双方开始对打，一个雪球钻进我的脖子，“好凉啊!”我退出了战场。

上课铃响了，我们依依不舍地回了教室。
