时间过得真快，一眨眼，快乐的寒假生活即将结束，回顾整个寒假，我觉得我过得充实而又快乐。

刚放寒假不久，我们全家来了一次大扫除，那天一大早，我们就开始分工：爸爸擦柜子，妈妈擦地板，我擦玻璃。

说行动就行动，我先拿报纸将玻璃仔细地擦了一遍，然后找来了“好帮手”“一擦净”。我把里面的两块海棉弄湿，将“一擦净”的一半放在里面，另一半放在外面，紧贴着玻璃，“啪”吸胶吸住了，我用线牵住外面的一半，然后有顺序地一上一下移动。我一口气擦了

五扇窗，擦过的窗户干净极了，甚至让爸爸看外面时，撞起了一个包。

为了奖励我，爸爸答应去钓鱼的时候也带上我，但前提是我不能发出声音。我连连答应。几天后，爸爸带我来到野外的一个大池塘，拿出钓鱼竿，帮我放上蚯蚓，我选了一个地方，把它甩下去，然后静静地等着鱼上钩。等了半天，一点动静也没有，我几乎想扔下钓鱼竿去玩了，可一看爸爸的桶里已经有好几条鱼了，又不甘心输给他，就只好拿着鱼竿干等，眼睛直勾勾的盯着浮标，忽然浮标微微颤动了一下，我揉揉眼睛，它又动了一下，我确信鱼上钩，就一把将鱼竿提起，哈哈，一条大鱼，我朝爸爸昂了昂头，爸爸也用惊讶的目光看着我，我真是太开心了!

有了一个好的开头，我自信了，不再轻易想放弃了。于是，幸运女神降临到了我头上，大鱼小鱼都来吃鱼饵，我来了一次大丰收。回到家，爸爸妈妈都不得不向我竖起大拇指，我也好佩服自己。

对了，你的寒假过得怎么样，是不是也像我一样充实而又快乐呢?

Although dream of many person have a house, our garden of house is too small in china.

I have bought a house last year, but I dont fit up it. My house is located in a small countryside. It is made of brick and reinforced concrete.

In the house, a first floor has very big windows. In my beautiful living room .there will be a sofa, fireplace, piano and hi-fi system. I will drink tea and coffee with my good friend .I can hear music .For example, I like music "secret garden"

In my beautiful kitchen, there are a micro-wave oven, wall-closet, fridge, sink and water-tap. There will be a long table, cupboards and kitchen utensils.

In the second floor, there are two bedroom.

a bathroom and a I like a very big study room. There are sofa ,closet, table lamp, bookshelf.

In the third floor, There are bedroom, a big balcony and big sky light .

The house which I can see in my dreams, In the garden, I will plant beautiful flowers and potted plant. I hope I will able to live in such house as I like music nature very much.

There was a sad music in the church, a parting song, and the children in front of the Jesus prayers were praying silently... At this point, what are the children praying for? Why are they so serious? Because its a graduation ceremony, because its their last day here...

Look at these kids pious face, listening to this copy from rolia song, tears blurred, I cant help remember three years ago, our graduation......

In the scorching summer, cicada son calls became the only tune, and we in the classroom, only the hearts of the coming of the senior high school entrance examination is full of infinite tension and anxiety.

Every day, after a hurry to do what everyone needs to do, immediately turn into a stressful study. A white paper in our hands is constantly checking, instead of the past summer, our hands those cute little fan; an English listening test repeatedly play, instead of the past, we listened to pop music; one to ask, instead of the old days in the classroom frequently heard the sound of the dozen...... Everything was insignificant in the face of the coming exam.

It seemed to be a long time in the past, and suddenly, at that time, like a page that had been turned over, it had not been carefully read, and it was in a hurry. The sound of the June alarm sounded, and our atmosphere was more tense. All the years, anyhow, graduation ceremony will be open, always a day to let us present ah, write the students... But we didnt do anything at that time, the reason was very simple, and everyone thought it was not necessary.

In this way, we have a graduation exam, and we just want a good result on the exam. At the end of the last exam, we gathered together, and the teacher just said something about the exam results, and hurriedly took a photo of graduation, didnt say goodbye, didnt do many other things like other graduates, and graduated.

After the mid-term examination, I found that the so-called "victory" didnt bring much joy to me. I thought that if theres a good result, there will be a happy summer vacation. But in those days, I found that it was too boring, even though I wrote a lot of homework every day, but there was always less...

Once, I walked into a gift shop close to our school. The boss asked me if I was too dull to graduate this time. He said he led a lot of gifts, such as the gift of graduation, but there were not many people in our school. He also jokes that the people we are now are getting less and more human.

After that, I thought seriously about what the boss said, and I had to admit that he was right. At that time, we only care about the results of the exam, but we have ignored the classmates and teachers feelings so long that only those scores are the only ones we want to pursue. If we were able to take a day to open a graduation ceremony and write to each other a communication address and contact, then our summer vacation would not be so boring. Its a pity that we didnt understand it at that time...

Maybe years later, when we turn over this page, we will find a blank place, a place that will never be filled out...

We didnt make mistakes three years ago. Today, we face the college entrance examination in an unhurried way, attend the graduation ceremony actively, and draw a successful conclusion for our senior high school life.

In the twinkling of an eye the summer is over, I know this summer for you with the usual meaning. This is a transition from high school to university, and a prelude to your maturity and independence.

I know a lot of people are excited and excited now. They are full of expectation and expectation for university life. At the same time, they will also have many doubts and worries, and dont know how to face many things. Actually, a year ago, when I first entered university, these puzzles were also on my side. I was always in a dilemma with many things and even sometimes made wrong decisions.

For a year, I have some things for some of their insights, perhaps the sentiment is too subjective, perhaps is wrong, is not suitable for you, but I still want to share with you, if I said not right, do not meet everyones mind, or to a lot of big family excuse, because it just represents my personal; but if I say, what word makes you get a tiny bit of inspiration or harvest, I will be the great honor, because it can get other peoples identity itself is a very comforting thing. Then, then, I will talk briefly about my personal feelings and opinions about some of the things in college life.

Our school life

Our shool is big and nice.There are about one thousand students in our school. Every day we have four lessons in the morning and three lessons in the afternoon. Our morning lessons begin at half past eight and we finish school at four oclock We take the same subjects at school. Such as Chinese, maths, Englsh, PE and so on.The school day is long. But we love our school life.

Today, as the development of technology, people can change their faces by doing plastic surgery, because of the commercial ads, people are highly effected by the exaggerated facts that they can be the shining stars. So people pay special attention on the outlooks, they want to look perfect, as far as I am concerned, the true beauty is nothing with perfect looking, only the inner beauty makes you shining. In the fairly tale of Cinderella, the prince chooses the poor girl instead of the beautiful girls, because he admires Cinderella’s inner beauty, though she is nobody. Though it is just a story, it tells people that inner beauty makes one outstanding. People can make their faces perfect, but there is no way to fulfill their inner beauty by technology. Inner beauty is the most precious thing, beautiful outlook will fade away with the time, but inner beauty won’t, it only getting valuable.

n my understanding, if we refer to an ideal college life as a formal western dinner, then a high GPA, that is, Grade Point Average, should be the main course, while an active part in activities, together with associations, means the appetizer. Some romances, of course, play the role as desserts. They are the 3 key elements for an ideal college life.

Those, however, are not what college life is all about. As we all know, college is wildly different from middle school. It connects not only adolescence to adulthood, but also the ivory tower to the real society. Therefore, the ideal college life is that I become matured both physically and mentally, and that I obtain qualified academic knowledge and get well prepared for society at the same time.

Under this circumstance, I never expect my college life to be too ideal, or you can call it too perfect. It is not realistic to make all things on my own way, with everyone liking me, winning the first prize all the time, and so on. Of course, I’d like to lead a carefree life. However, this does little good to my future. What really helps is hardships like failure, betrayal, and unjust treatment. Only after experiencing those can I know what society is like, and what life is like.

To conclude my speech, I wanna say, some positive experiences are surely part of the ideal college life. But, I should not forget about the negative sides. They are not less necessary.

It seems that people always have a desire to compare: am I prettier than others? Are we living in a better age? Or, as the question goes, is our life easier and more enjoyable than it was several decades ago? I would say no, as I have witnessed the struggle and paradox of our generation.

First of all, we are now living in an age of revolution with no previous human experience that could be referred to. Living in such a fast-changing world would not be easy and comfortable at all; with everything keeps changing, everyone has to move fast in order to catch up with the majority. However, people were much more stable and care-free when our grandparents were children; they did not have to learn a second language in order to get a better job, or read a lot in order to get informed. Yet in our age, these are supposed to be the responsibility of young people.

Another discomfort of our age is that we are experiencing interpersonal alienation. With the development of communication technology, people in fact become alienated with friends and relatives since they could be so easily accessed via phone or email. Too often we feel that few of our friends are true friends, without the traditional feeling of mutual affection which could only be created by longtime apart. But several decades ago, people treasured their friends and maintained relatively close interpersonal relations, which is much more enjoyable than the estrangements we are experiencing.

The last factor that has made our age so uncomfortable is the abusive use of technology. Although it brings much convenience, it essentially changes human – we are no longer the master of tools, but instead the slaves of devices. We rush to metro station in order to catch an early train, sit in front of radioactive computers all day long in order to get our work done, and stay in air-conditioned rooms all summer without experiencing the natural changes outside thick cement walls. Several decades ago, people could still live closer to nature and make rational use of modern technology, which to me is the essence of human living experience.

However, the comparison between different times is itself ridiculous. The criteria could not be easily determined, and opinions are highly personal. Anyway, we have a longer life span, more advanced medical facilities, and easier traffic than our grandparent when they were children, and we should treasure the present experience. Imagination of the past might only be nostalgia – if I ask my grandparents the same question, they might as well say that our life is much better than the past generations. Who knows? As long as the world is still peaceful, life at any time would not become too difficult to handle.

Recently the rise in phenomenon of the graduates signing up for the army has aroused public concern. According to a research, about 31% of graduates sign up for the army this year, which sets a new record during these ten years.

最近在高校毕业生现象的增加引起了公众的关注。根据研究表明，今年大约31%的毕业生报名参军，创下近十年来的记录。

The reasons why so many graduates sign up for the army can be complicated. First of all, most of them are attracted by the outstanding treatment. Besides, joining the army can release the pressure of looking for the job. Finally, a number of graduates treat the army as a group which can strengthen their bodies and train their mental strength.

那么多毕业生报名参军的原因是很复杂的。首先，大部分人是被其丰厚的待遇所吸引；除此之外，参军可以减轻找工作的压力；最后，有些毕业生把军队看作是可以加强身体素质和加强心理素质的一个群体。

As far as I concerned, I agree on the opinion that the army can train graduates well, but I doubt it can solve the problem of obtaining employment. So I call on treating signing up for the army properly.

就我而言，我同意军队可以好好的培养毕业生，但我对它能解决就业问题表示怀疑。所以我觉得应该参军也要适当。

Nowadays peoples life develops quite rapidly. Many things have changed

over the last century. Old buildings are relaced by skyscrapers. Telephone,

air-conditioner, TV, digital camera, computer and the Internet have taken their

place in our life. We have stepped into Information Age. We are always enjoying

the newest digital products. With all these hi-tech products, people are leading

a more and more colorful life. They are enjoying life more than ever in their

spare time. They can watch movies, surf the Internet, take a holiday and so on.

How different the present life is from the previous one when people couldnt

even feed themselves. Whats more, it differs a lot as well in transportation.

Various modern means of transpot have taken the place of human feet and horses.

People can take aeroplanes, subways, even maglevs and so on. They offer people

much convenience. That is to say, people neednt feel worried for wasting a

great deal of time travelling any more. However, while people are enjoying the

changes caused by hi-tech, something still remains the same. For example, those

traditional customs and festivals, especially the custom that people gather to

have dinner as well as ethical culture forms like Peking Opera, ancient

architecture and traditional food. Peking Opera is spreading throughout. As to

ancient architecture like Siheyuan and Hutong, people are still preserving them

well as the symbol of the whole nationalitys historical culture. As for

traditional food, people are still used to eating it. Even though the world has

been extremely highly developed and there are many foreign cultures are pouring

into China, traditional food is still the mainstream. So, I think, although

those hi-tech products bring along unprecedented creature comfort, traditional

cultures will stay unchanged and they will develop further. And on the original

basis, it must creat miracles one after another, because it belongs to the souls

of our Chinese nationality.
