Perfect Dream Harry Potter

Do you know Harry Potter? If you dont, then you are out of date. Many people love Harry Potter, whether children or adults. I love Harry Potter, too. Last week, I went to Nantong to see the movie "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire".

It was a wonderful movie. In the movie, Harry is the same age as us and he is more handsome than me. Harrys best friends are Hermione and Ron. The movie tells the story of Harrys Fourth Year at Hogwarts. The Goblet of Five selects him to compete as one of four champions in the Throwizard Tournament, despite the fact that he didnt submit his name. The Tournament is very dangerous so his friends are all worried about him. Hermione and Ron try their best to help Harry to prepare for each task. I think their friendship is unbreakable. Cho Chang, who Harry likes, is a Chinese pretty girl. I liked her but I liked Hermione better because she is very clever.

Its very magical! I love magic as much as Harry does. If I lived in a magic world, I could pick up gigantic things easily, I could go to wherever I liked and I could fly on a broom, I could change my hairstyle of any time, I could.

Its a perfect world and its a perfect dream.

“希望”是人们努力的原动力,希望或许是可以实现的,也或许是一些遥不可及的梦想。希望对我们来说是十分重要的,生命中如果没有了希望,就像是断了线的风筝,只能没有方向的飞,没有目的。而人们的希望和梦想是包罗万象的,是无法言尽的。

我的希望有很多,环游世界、成为一流的医生、主播、摄影师,把全世界美丽的景色,都用相机纪录下来,在我脑袋做成一篇篇美好的故事,我还要爬上玉山顶端,甚至登上世界第一高峰─圣母峰,站在世界的最高处,眺望世界,这些都是我的希望。

要达成所有的愿望不是件简单的事,不过坐而言,不如起而行,我要努力去达成我希望的事。我希望登高望远,在山上,我可以看见美丽的土地。虽然爬上山顶不事件非常困难的事,不过,如果我们连小山都爬不动、爬不完的话,那又怎能登上最高峰?所以现在,我常常假日就和家人去爬两三小时的山,不但能放松心情和运动,也能训练我的体力,而且还能拍下美丽的风景,留下脚印,如此就能让我的希 望向前又跨了一步。如果我要成为一位医生,我必须从现在做起,一天一天的充实自己的知识。如果我要成为一位主播,我必须天天练习自己的口才,充分的练习面对观众时,要如何不紧张,面不改色且流畅的说出内容。

我们的生命中,有梦最美,希望相随,我也盼望每个人的“希望”都能实现,就算只是个遥不可及的梦想,至少大家也能有为了自己难以实现的梦想,而努力的经验。“希望”如果要实现,一定要靠自己一部一脚印的向前迈进,别想一步登天,总有一天,一定会成功。

Dear Jim,

亲爱的吉姆,

Last Sunday my classmates and I went to Xiangshan Park.

上周日我和我的同学去了香山公园。

We met at 7 oclock at the school gate. The weather in Beijing that day was great. At around 8 oclock, we arrived at Xiangshan Park. There is a high tree on the bottom of the hill. We had a party and played games under the tree. Then we climbed to the top of Xiangshan Mountain. It was not very difficult for us to do it. Next, we had lunch at the top of the hill. It was delicious. After lunch, we saw some birds. They were friendly. And we saw a whole picture of Beijing. "What a beautiful city!" I said. At that moment, we all felt so proud. I live in Beijing now. The 2008 Olympic games was held here.

我们七点在校门口集合。那天北京的天气很好。八点左右,我们就抵达香山公园。在山脚下有一棵高高的树。我们在树下开了一个聚会,玩游戏。然后我们爬上香山的山顶。对我们来说并不是很难。接下来,我们在山顶上吃午饭。很美味。午饭后,我们看见了一些鸟。它们很友好。我们看到了北京的全貌。”真是一个美丽的城市!”我说道。在那一刻,我们都感到非常的骄傲。我现在住在北京。2008届奥运会将在这里举行。

I hope you can visit to Beijing in the future and I am sure you’ll like here.

希望将来你可以来参观北京,我肯定你一定会喜欢的。

幸福是否可以用金钱购买?不可能!但是不是钱多一点我们就会更开心一点呢?对此,大多数人一定微笑赞同。我们相信,收入的富足与舒适的生活感受之间有着某种联系。几乎所有人都会说,是的,我希望变得富有。而目前有四分之三的美国大学生都认为,过上“十分富裕”的生活是“非常重要”和“必不可少”的。钱的作用的确不小。

Does money buy happiness? No! Ah, but would a little more money make us a little happier? Many of us smirk and nod. There is, we believe, some connection between fiscal fitness and feeling fantastic. Most of us would say that, yes, we would like to be rich. Three in four American collegians now consider it “very important” or “essential” that they become “very well off financially”. Money matters.

但是,富人就一定更快乐吗?研究人员发现,在一些贫穷的国家,相对而言比较富裕确实会使人过得更幸福一些。我们需要食物、住所、休息和社会关系。然而,人们惊讶地发现,在那些几乎所有人都衣食无忧的国家里,财富的增加所产生的效果微乎其微。收入与幸福之间的关联“惊人得微弱”。一旦生活舒适,钱所带来的收益便呈现递减趋势。得到的第二笔十万美元就像吃到的第二只派,尝起来永远都不如第一只那么美味。即使那些彩票得主和福布斯排名前一百的富人们也并没有比一般的美国人更开心多少。飞黄腾达只能带来暂时的喜悦。从长远来说,财富就像健康一样,失去它的人定会感到不幸,而拥有它的人却未必一定幸福。

Well, are rich people happier? Researchers have found that in poor countries, being relatively well off does make for greater well-being. We need food, rest, shelter and social contact. But a surprising fact of life is that in countries where nearly everyone can afford life’s necessities, increasing affluence matters surprisingly little. The correlation between income and happiness is “surprisingly weak”. Once comfortable, more money provides diminishing returns. The second piece of pie, or the second $100,000, never tastes as good as the first. Even lottery winners and the Forbes’ 100 wealthiest Americans have expressed only slightly greater happiness than the average American. Making it big brings temporary joy. But in the long run, wealth is like health: its utter absence can breed misery, but having it doesn’t guarantee happiness.

Is it Good for College Students to fall in love in School?

College students have more freedom than before and they also grow more and

more mature in physical and mental. So it is natural that they would like to

fall in love with someone. As a result, campus love becomes popular in

university. For this phenomenon, people opinions vary. In my opinion, I dont

agree with that phenomenon.

跟以前相比,大学生拥有更多的自由,而且在身心上他们也在慢慢地变得越来越成熟。所以他们想谈恋爱是很自然的。结果校园恋爱在大学中就变得很普遍。对于这一现象,人们众说纷纭。在我看来,我是持反对意见的。

首先,恋爱需要花费很多钱。当两个人是那种关系的时候,他们就会经常一起出去。出去的时候就要花比较多的钱。约会中,男孩子会尽自己最大的努力去买东西给女孩让她开心。而女孩也会开始化妆或者买一些漂亮的衣服来让自己看起来更美丽。这些行为都是需要钱的。然而,大学生仍然还是学生。他们没有收入。他们的钱是父母给的。恋爱会增加家庭和自己的负担。

梦想。流浪

自由是我的追求,写作是我的幸福,所以我将它们结合,就成了我的梦想——当个自由作家。

带上笔和纸,另加一本诗词集,开始我的流浪。

穿梭于各个城市,从容的走走停停,停停看看,偶尔随意坐下,看那过往的一群群人,实现那个从小到大过生日是永远有的愿望:看很多很多人。这对于我来说是一种幸福,看他们各种各样的表情,想象他们的故事,乐此不疲地记下这一切的一切,看着叶稍闪动的风,心中忽然划过莫名的悲喜,幸福地感受我的感受。再穿越那个城市,将发生的旧时光忘却,这样,我便永远是个孩子。以前经过的城市,一切不再,不管它的美丽与繁华,我永远是个过客,而不是归人,无处是家,处处是家,我流浪的自由不会停止。

也许在某一天,我的文章突然被刊登,而在某一个位置的时刻,当我正快速逃离某个喧嚣的城市时,行人的三言两语突然闯入我的耳际,听着他们对我的议论,无论欣赏与否,一种被人发觉的小小的虚荣感把我那颗小小的心塞得满满的。又想起他们甚至不明白身边这个有着温暖的眉、眼底偶尔突显尖锐的女孩,就是他们议论的人时,我的眼底闪过一片狡黠。

我喜爱自由,但我愿用一种颠沛流离的姿态,流浪而孤独的走过我的岁月,用自我的语言记录世间的冷暖,直到自我最后发现我不再纯真时,遗忘一切,再安静地,沉睡。

这种流浪的自由作家的生活是一种行走,我执着于行走,我对它的爱是至死不休的,我愿为它倾其所有,哪怕,以生命换之!

我将我的梦想称之为行走,我将毕其一生去完成我的行走。

我是一个平凡的人,就像一粒不起眼的浮尘,随风而去,随遇而安。你无法清晰地记住我的模样,也许你问过名字后,很久才能浮现出我对你微笑的画面。究其原因,还是因为我太过平凡。

也因为我的普通,我无法有豪迈的行动,无法有壮气的语言,无法有磅礴的气势,甚至连梦想,也是平凡且微弱的。

于是,我安于宿命,编织着我一个又一个的小梦想。生活给了小梦想生命,给了他向上蓬勃的力量,但他从不沉浮于生活,不低头于命运。我于他的态度,就像周敦颐于莲一般,爱他,恋他,念他。也固执地认为,小梦想也如莲般的清高,也如莲般的出淤泥而不染。

虽然梦想不大,但我对其的态度依然认真。我用力地去追逐,也在其中不断地完成了人生价值的体现和心灵思想的升华。正因为我爱他,所以我努力地让他从梦幻走进现实,一个又一个地让他们成真。

当然,有人会嘲笑,有人会讥讽。轻蔑道我这微小的梦想。比起他们豪迈的“大梦想”,我的梦想确是微中之微。但我从未觊觎他们的“大梦想”,因为当我回头看去时,我已为实现一个又一个的小梦想而走出了无数步,而他们却抱着“离梦想太遥远”的心态而固步自封。

所以,从某些角度来说,我热爱并感谢我的小梦想。

他于我,也如同莲于周敦颐一般的重要,因为放弃他,便意味着我放弃了进步的理由。

其实,小梦想未尝不好。相信我,再卑微的梦想也值得被尊重,那些卑微的小梦想,请一定一定坚持下去,因为,小梦想的终点将会有大大的温暖的幸福。

“坚持不懈,才可能登上顶峰。”父亲总是用认真的语气对我说着这句我一直铭记在心的话语。正如天空中自由自在的雄鹰,在出生的那一刻起就被赋予了翱翔蓝天的期望,在母鹰的悉心照料与疼爱下,带着梦想与被寄予的期望踏上了艰难无比的成长之路。人的成长之路亦是如此,可我的路却有些不同。我从小就对英语有天赋,父亲一直希望我能成为一名翻译家。那时的日常任务就是练习英语对话,写额外布置的英语作业。曾经麻木的我也一度的.以为这就是我的“梦想”,我会一直朝着条路成长下去。

可直到那一天,我才发现,我所谓的“梦想”,只不过是父母为了我以后能生存而逼迫我去接受本不深爱的东西罢了。

我永远忘不了那一天。天空中铺满了灰蒙蒙的雾,温暖人心的太阳也因对寒冷的恐惧哆嗦的跑到了乌云后面。我坐在教室里向着窗外发呆,身体也有些不自觉的颤抖起来。教室里到处充满着欢声笑语,已经入学一年的我却因为每天都必须早早回家学习而没有交到过朋友。冷风呼呼的从窗户的夹缝中钻进来。不经意间,我的鼻子微微一酸,一股热流在眼睛里打转。“这是新一期的漫画,不介意的话,借你看吧。”一个清新可爱的女生站在我的面前害羞的说着。我因为被吓了一跳身体一惊。我犹豫不决的接过了她手中那本我不曾接触过的书,缓缓翻开第一页,一种奇妙的感觉朝我而来。慢慢的,太阳战战兢兢的从乌云中钻了出来。阳光的暖流穿透全身,眼里的热流也与其融为了一体。

从那时起,我就立志要成为一名能带给别人欢乐的漫画家。现在的我已经坚定了目标,可我的父母却不同意我当这种“没有未来”的人。但我坚信父亲的那句话,只要我坚持不懈,我就一定能够实现心中那最初的梦想!

后来我上幼儿园了,幼儿园有很多小朋友也有很多家里没有的玩具,我那时的梦想就是老师天天能奖励我卡通贴纸,为了能天天得到卡通贴纸,我每天认真听老师的话,不哭不闹,带领同学们一起看有趣的书,给他们分享我看的很有意思的故事书。

随着我读的书越来越多,我的梦想也在无时不刻地在变化。当我读到了《特种兵学校》这套书,我被里面的人物深深吸引,为他们吃苦向上的精神感动。我的梦想又变成了长大也要做一名优秀的特种兵,哪里有危险我就无所不惧地出现在哪里。

最近我又读了《中华上下五千年》和《中国近现代史》,我为浩大的丝绸之路既感到艰辛又感到骄傲,唐朝的繁华随着封建社会的固步自封而衰落,又看到郑和的船队七下西洋展现了大明王朝的辉煌,直到国家弱到小小的日本对我们也侵略,软弱的清王朝不惜割让土地也不奋力抵抗,看到南京大屠杀的章节时,我的眼泪控制不住的流下来,我突然意识到:一个弱国的人民在那个时候是多么的渺小和无助,只有国家强大了,人民才能不被欺负,自己的小梦想才能实现。

当今我们国家在爷爷的带领下已经走在了强国之列,我知道这份成绩是无数先烈用生命换来的。我为生活在这个时代而庆幸,我庆幸我是一名中国人,我庆幸我能有这么好的环境去心无旁骛地读书、学习,长大后我要为自己能为中华民族的伟大复兴做出贡献而自豪。

全文共 3131 字

halloween has always been a holiday filled with mystery, magic and superstition. it began as a celtic end-of-summer festival during which people felt especially close to deceased relatives and friends. for these friendly spirits, they set places at the dinner table, left treats on doorsteps and along the side of the road and lit candles to help loved ones find their way back to the spirit world.

todays halloween ghosts are often depicted as more fearsome and malevolent, and our customs and superstitions are scarier too. we avoid crossing paths with black cats, afraid that they might bring us bad luck. this idea has its roots in the middle ages, when many people believed that witches avoided detection by turning themselves into cats. we try not to walk under ladders for the same reason. this superstition may have come from the ancient egyptians, who believed that triangles were sacred; it also may have something to do with the fact that walking under a leaning ladder tends to be fairly unsafe. and around halloween, especially, we try to avoid breaking mirrors, stepping on cracks in the road or spilling salt.

but what about the halloween traditions and beliefs that todays trick-or-treaters have forgotten all about? many of these obsolete rituals focused on the future instead of the past and the living instead of the dead. in particular, many had to do with helping young women identify their future husbands and reassuring them that they would someday--with luck, by next halloween!--be married.

in 18th-century ireland, a matchmaking cook might bury a ring in her mashed potatoes on halloween night, hoping to bring true love to the diner who found it. in scotland, fortune-tellers recommended that an eligible young woman name a hazelnut for each of her suitors and then toss the nuts into the fireplace. the nut that burned to ashes rather than popping or exploding, the story went, represented the girls future husband. (in some versions of this legend, confusingly, the opposite was true: the nut that burned away symbolized a love that would not last.) another tale had it that if a young woman ate a sugary concoction made out of walnuts, hazelnuts and nutmeg before bed on halloween night, she would dream about her future husband. young women tossed apple-peels over their shoulders, hoping that the peels would fall on the floor in the shape of their future husbands initials; tried to learn about their futures by peering at egg yolks floating in a bowl of water; and stood in front of mirrors in darkened rooms, holding candles and looking over their shoulders for their husbands faces.

other rituals were more competitive. at some halloween parties, the first guest to find a burr on a chestnut-hunt would be the first to marry; at others, the first successful apple-bobber would be the first down the aisle.

of course, whether were asking for romantic advice or trying to avoid seven years of bad luck, each one of these halloween superstitions relies on the good will of the very same "spirits" whose presence the early celts felt so keenly. ours is not such a different holiday after all!

Unlike Martin Luther King’s, my dreams are fair and plain, and there are

many of them. I have a dream from the first time I sit in a car—I want to

drive.

Driving is like running without foot, racing without strength. It’s the

most meaningful way to meet human being’s desire of “faster”. When driving, I

have to put all my spirit to. Operating a car at ease will cost years of

experience.

Driving will take me to my wanting destination, no matter it rains or snows

or winds. I never am afraid of shoes wet, umbrella broken or ears frozen. A car

is rather like a moving house, which protects me completely and helps me rush

directly to the aim hanging ahead. That suits my nature perfectly: love to take

risks conservatively. A smooth ride in a good car is an enjoyable satisfaction.

Seeing rows of trees moving backward rapidly, a feeling of stepping forward will

fill fully in my mind. With music hovering, breeze blowing, my soul flies in the

air.

I was always sick when took a ride of a car, especially when I was young.

Father told me that a driver would never have carsick. That may be one of the

important reasons for me to desire driving.

This summer I am going to learn driving and get my car license. The dream

with all my heart will follow the promise it had made.

梦想是你人生的导航,每一个人都有自己的梦想,小树的梦想是长成一棵参天大树;小花的梦想是绽放出独一无二的芬芳;小鸟的梦想是在湛蓝的天空中翱翔。有梦想就会有动力,不知道,你们可记得在突如其来的汶川大地震,一名舞蹈老师廖智失去了在舞台上翩翩起舞的双腿,但仍然坚持她的舞蹈梦想。 Dream is the navigation of your life, everyone has their own dreams, Xiao Shus dream is to grow into a towering tree; Xiao Huas dream is to bloom uniquely.Fragrance; birds dream is to fly in the blue sky.If you have a dream, you will have motivation. I do n’t know. You can remember at the sudden Wenchuan earthquake. A dance teacher Liao Zhi lost his legs dancing on the stage, but still insisted on her dance dream.

廖智在截肢手术几个月后,伤口逐渐愈合。不久,世界小姐委会要在汶川办一个大型义演活动。廖智设计了一支舞蹈,这支舞蹈用一面大鼓做道具,自己直接跪在鼓面上跳舞。这对于常人来说只不过小菜一碟,是对刚做完截肢手术不久的廖智来说,却是难到了极点。

一跪到鼓面上训练,一股钻心的疼痛,双腿不由自主地颤抖。在汶川地震的3个月后,当一袭红衣,腿上缠着纱布的廖智在大鼓上翩翩起舞!凭着出色的舞艺,廖智在全国第八届残疾人运动会的开幕式第三场《生命之光》中担任主角,她用自己所有的热情和生命共舞,发出属于自己的生命之光!

我的梦想是成为一名光荣人民教师,渴望着做一盏照亮前方,却不求回报的明灯,渴望着成为一名无私的人,用毕生所学的所有来为他们打开知识的宝库。哺育一棵又一棵稚嫩的幼苗,培养一批又一批的出色人才。教会他们在人生的道路上清清白白做人的高尚情操。在他们洁白如纸的心灵上,写下永不磨灭的痕迹。带领他们遨游科学、艺术的殿堂用各种各样的方式使他们发现科学的奥妙、生命起源的神奇、艺术瑰宝的绚丽。

奥普拉曾经说过;“一个人可以非常清贫、困顿、低微,但是不可以没有梦想。只要梦想一天,只要梦想存在一天,就可以改变自己的处境。”梦想是黑夜里的灯塔,它是春天里姹紫嫣红的花朵,是天中洁白的云朵,多么美好啊!
