我的家乡在尚湖村。家乡是那么美，那么自然，我爱我的家乡。

我的家乡山清水秀，我非常爱它。清澈的湖水像一面巨大的镜子。风一吹，水面泛起粼粼波纹，像有许多鱼鳞一样。水中的鱼儿游来游去，不停地吹着泡泡，泡泡五彩缤纷，像一颗颗葡萄。岸边的小花随着风姑娘的伴托跳出优美的舞姿。美丽的小花向小河点头，像是要和小河交朋友。小草衬托着小花，远看就像一幅画。画上有水、小花、小草，还有翠绿的山。山上有松树、梅树、桃树等。松树又高又大，像一位位战士在保护祖国。梅树不怕风欺雪压;不怕寒冷。在寒冷的冬天里，傲然雪立。这不是中华民族的精神吗?

我们的家乡不仅风景美，而且家乡人们勤劳朴实。他每天日出而作、日落而息。还要面朝黄土背朝天。现在家乡人们要早早地起床，在太阳照耀下摘茄子一粒一粒的汗珠从额头流到地上，中午又要把茄子卖出去，急匆匆地赶回家吃午饭。吃完饭又要去摘，一天下来他们可忙了。家乡人们还要掰茭白，早上去掰，太阳落山才能回家。

家乡人们勤劳，我在家还有许多小朋友呢!我和小朋友一起玩，一起学习，每天要到小溪边玩，还要出去散步。冬天，我们一起在雪地上堆雪人，打雪仗，那美好的回忆一直在我脑海里。

啊!我爱我的家乡。我的家乡美丽、自然，我要永远留在家乡。

CET-6 during my university. And I’ve acquired basic knowledge of my major. It is my long cherished dream to be an engineer and I am eager to get an opportunity to fully play my ability.

In July 2003, I began working for a small private company as a technical support engineer in Qingdao city.

And in August 2004, I left for Beijing and worked for a foreign enterprise as an automation software test engineer.

Good morning， teachers.

I am very glad to be here for this interview. First let me introduce myself. My name is XX, 25 years old. I come from Weifang, a beautiful city of Shandong Province. I graduated from commercial College in July，2001 and major in finance. Then, I was a teacher in X. When I was a senior school student, I am interested in thought and began to read a certain classic work of Marxism, especially I finished reading "the florilegium of Mao ZeDong". From then on, I have dabbled in more and more theoretical works` and accumulated great interests in theory study， especially in Marxism.

I have a dream, a dream of my study. I wish devote my whole life and energy into the development of the Marxism. If I have the opportunity to study in abc University, Ill dabble in as much as document about the specialty as possible. If it is possible, I want to get the primary accomplishment in my major, at least, a stable basis.

Personally, for todays China, the first task to the development of Marxism is a process of construction. Thats to say, we should understand Marxism mostly from the aspect of construction and development of social society. Only when our socialistic country has a more rapid and balance development than the capitalistic, we can enhance the attractiveness and persuasion of Marxism eventually.

Penguins live around the South Pole. They usually spend all their waking hours in the water. Only during the egg-laying and mating periods do penguins actually live on land. During the egg-laying period, the female penguin lays usually one egg. This egg is kept in a flap of skin, much like a pocket, located near the top of the penguin’s feet. The male and female penguins take turns caring for the egg. After the baby penguin is hatched, its mother takes care of it until it is able to walk. Then it joins the other babies, and the whole group is watched by a few adults.

Penguins commonly are black with black heads and white breasts. Large penguins often stand about 3 feet in height. Since a penguin’s legs are placed far back, it is able to maintain a very erect posture. It is amusing to watch penguins and to see how much the upright birds resemble humans in dress suits walking in a comical fashion.

The "Chong Yang Festival" is celebrated on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, and it is as such known as the Double Ninth Festival.

Origins: The festival began as early as the Warring States Period (475 - 221 BC). According to the yin/yang dichotomy that forms a basis to the Chinese world view, yin represents the elements of darkness and yang represents life and brightness. The number nine is regarded as yang. The ninth day of the ninth month is a double yang day, hence the name "Chong Yang Festival". (Chong means "repeat" in Chinese.) The ninth month also heralds the approach of winter. It is a time when the living need warm clothing, and filial Chinese sons and daughters extended this to make the festival a time for providing winter clothes for their ancestors. The Double Ninth Festival, therefore, also became an occasion to visit the graves of dead family members. Clothes made of paper would then be burnt as offerings.

Climbing mountains: On the Double Ninth Festival, people customarily climb mountains, appreciate chrysanthemum flowers, drink chrysanthemum wine, and eat double-ninth cakes. The Double Ninth Festival is also the "Old Men Festival". Old people are especially meant to improve their health by taking part in the activities on the day of the festival.

Family get-togethers: The Double Ninth Festival is also a time for family get-togethers. It is an occasion to remember one‘s ancestors, the sacrifices they made and the hardships they underwent. Often, family outings are organised during which people search to renew their appreciation of nature and to reaffirm their love and concern for family members and close friends.
