In everyones life, the path of the may not always smooth, each person will encounter difficulties and setbacks. When you face difficulty and setback, you dont fear, never retreat, must be brave to face them, to find a way to overcome, and overcome, so that you beat yourself.

I also have such an experience.

In a day, our teacher let us do a teacher himself out of the test paper, a few questions before I finished it easily, but alone has baffled me to the last question, I want to left again, method let me call back later, I want to right again, method and let me call back later, I left no stone unturned, racking their brains, think along while also didnt think out the solution to this problem. Ten minutes passed, and 20 Zhong Guo, thirty minutes passed, 35 minutes passed...... there are still five minutes seemed close examination paper, how to do? In the last few minutes, I suddenly shine at the moment, find the problem solving methods to the problem. Then I thought: this method is not in front of my eyes? Why cant I didnt see it? as luck would have it, I have just finished the question, the teacher will submit to us, after down, I know "everything be afraid and they were afraid that the word" seriously.

In this question, I know a truth, no matter what happens, as long as serious, you will overcome the present difficulties, wont let him give avenue, and extend to a more difficult way.

The classmates, please believe that, although the road ahead even more dangerous and more bumpy, but as long as you seriously and carefully to do every thing, begin with careful, ends in earnest, there would be no bad thing you do, as long as they have "serious" 2 words, then you can overcome all difficulties, overcome all difficulties, beat off all the obstacle on the road of life, make your life more meaningful!

在每个人的一生中,走的路不可能总是平坦的,每个人一定会遇到困难和挫折。当你面对困难和挫折时,你千万不要胆怯,千万不能退缩,一定要勇敢的面对它们,想办法战胜,并且克服,这样你就等于战胜了你自己。

我也有一次这样的经历。

在一天,我们老师让我们做一张老师自己出的考卷,前几道题我轻轻松松的就做完了,可是惟独有最后一道题把我给难住了,我左想一遍,方法让我给打回去了,我右想一遍,方法又让我给打回去了,我想尽了一切方法,绞尽脑汁,想了半天也没把这道题的解法想出来。十分钟过去了、二十分钟过去了、三十分钟过去了、三十五分钟过去了······眼看还有五分钟就要收卷子了,怎么办呢?在最后的几分钟里,我忽然眼前一亮,找到着这道题的解题方法。当时我想:‘这方法不就在我的眼前么?我怎么就没看见呢?’说来也巧,我刚刚做完了那一道题,老师就要我们交卷,下去以后,我知道了“世上万物怕就怕这认真二字”。

在这次做题中,我知道了一个道理,无论做什么事,只要认真,你一定会克服眼前的困难,不会让他给大道,并且向更艰难的路走去。

同学们,请相信,虽然前面的路更加艰险,更加坎坷不平,但是只要你认真地对待和认真地去做每一件事,以细心开头,以认真结尾,就没有你做不好的事,只要自己拥有“认真”二字,那么你就可以战胜一切困难,克服一切困难,打退一切人生路上的拦路虎,使你的一生更加有意义!

I seem to recall best a journey we made by tram one winter night.

It had been raining; the gas lamps lit the gleaming pavements and cobbles with a doubled radiance. The shaking tram wires were sending down showers of white raindrops. Everything in the ram seemed fresh and glittering. The breezy windows sparkled with long zigzags of rain and the passing street lamp flared gorgeously through the panels of blue and yellow and ruby glass. Outside, it was cold and windy, and we could feel the gale buffeting against the side of the tram, making it sway and lurch ore than usual, and throwing the passengers of song, and the fresh, clean, cold sea-wind was blowing right through the upper deck. Above, a high half-moon seemed to be skidding along on its back through piles of black, white-lined rags. It was a wild night, with a sense of magic in the offing. The people in the tram did not like ordinary mortals; a kind of exhilaratinggaietyhadseizedthem,anditseseememed to lighten their bodies and illuminate their faces.

Mid-Autumn Day,all the country is celebrating. The streets are full of

people, the loves are holding each other tightily.Everyone has his day.However,I

am lonely.No one to hold,no one to kiss,no ont to talk! I was walking around the

present that not bought from myself!!!

Chusok ("fall evening") is a Korean "Harvest Moon" (Han-gawi) festival set

on the 15th day of the eighth lunar moon. Chusok (韩国中秋节), also known as the

Korean Thanksgiving or Mid-Autumn Festival, is one of the most celebrated Korean

holidays. It occurs during the harvest season. Thus, Korean families take this

time to thank their ancestors for providing them with rice and fruits.

The celebration starts on the night before Chusok and ends on the day after

the holiday. Thus, many Korean families take three days off from work to get

together with family and friends.

The celebration starts with a family get-together at which rice cakes

called "Songphyun" (蒸糕) are served. These special rice cakes are made of rice,

beans, sesame seeds, and chestnuts. Then the family pays respect to ancestors by

visiting their tombs and offering them rice and fruits. The Koreans visit the

graves of their ancestors to bow and clean the area for the coming winter. In

the evening, children wear their favorite hanbok (traditional Korean clothing)

and dance under the bright moon in a large circle. They play games and sing

songs. Like the American Thanksgiving, Chusok is the time to celebrate the

family and give thanks for their blessings.

Community activities include masked dance, Kanggangsuwollae, an ancient

circle dance, tug-of-wars and the tortoise game, kobuk-nori (乌龟游戏), in which two

men dress as a tortoise and tour the village dancing and performing for food and

drink. Most of all, Chusok is a time to give thanks for the autumn harvest and

reaffirm familial and community ties.
