Whenit comes to online shopping, different people holds different ideas towards it.Some people seem extremely enjoy the way of buying things online because theyfeel online shopping is so convenient. Some just don’t believe that they can buygood quality commodities from Internet. As far as I’m concerned, I think onlineshopping creates lots of benefits to people.

Firstly,buying things online is a way of saving time. Compared with the traditional wayof shopping, we have no need to go out to pick up our favorite goods from storeto store. Just a click, we can have things in our shopping cart and just waitfor the goods to be delivered to us. To this extent, not only we can save thetime of finding things from store to store but we don’t need to spend time ontransportation. Thus, we can save lots of time to enjoy fun.

Secondly,buying things online can save our money. People buy commodities by Internet notonly because it saves us time, but also, we can save lots of money. It is oftenseen that some people just go to the physical store to check out thecommodities they want to buy and then they would search for their favoritecommodities online and take the order. People do this just because they knowthat online goods are usually cheaper than the goods displayed in shop windowbecause online shop have no need to pay the rent. So, people are more inclinedto buying things from online store.

Thirdly,convenience is the last but not least thing of shopping online. Since we canbuy things online, there is no need to go out to look for things we want tobuy. What we need to do is to simply sit before our computer, search for thingswe want to buy, click our favorite thing and then pay our order by our bankcard. And then, you just need to wait for your goods to be delivered to yourhome.

Inconclusion, shopping online is a convenient, time-saving and money saving wayof buying things. Therefore, we can benefit a lot from shopping online. That’sthe reason of why shopping online has developed faster and faster in recentyears.

在教我的老师中，有亲切和蔼的语文老师，有严肃认真的数学老师，有活泼开朗的音乐老师，还有幽默诙谐的体育老师……这些老师都无私地教给我们各种知识，让我们在学习的海洋中自由地翱翔。最让我难忘的是教我英语的蒋老师，她不仅让我爱上了英语，更让我成为一个勇于克服缺点的人。

刚上一年级时，由于我在换牙，口齿不清，所以在英语课上根本就不敢进行口语练习，生怕同学们笑话我“大舌头“。当时同学们在老师的带领下，都能流利地用英语谈话，而一句简单的“my name is yuxiaolin”我都说不出来。面对老师的提问，我总是把头低下，心想：别叫我，千万别叫我!开始，同学们都踊跃举手，所以蒋老师也就没有发现胆小的我。

可是随着时间的推移，老师终于在一次口语练习的时候叫到了把身体都快溜到课桌下的我。我在大家的注视下，红着脸站起来了，我感到自己的眼泪快要流出来了。“别着急，说出你的名字。”老师的语气是那么柔和，可是我说不出口。时间就在我的窘迫中渐渐流逝，终于老师打破了沉默，“我知道你的名字，老师们都夸奖你是个学习认真的孩子。同学们，是不是呀?”同学们都不假思索地应和：“是!”听到这些，我的眼泪不由自主地流下来了。蒋老师带领大家一起说出：“my name is yuxiaolin! my name is yuxiaolin!”奇怪，我竟然不害怕了，也跟着同学们一起说连续说了两遍，就在大家都停下时，由于惯性，我又说了“my name is yuxiaolin”。“你真棒!”老师竟然祝贺我，“好孩子，你能再大声说一遍吗?” “my name is yuxiaolin!”我终于敢张开嘴了，心里也仿佛卸下了一块大石头。同学们没有嘲笑我，老师没有批评我，耶!我不怕了!

从那以后，不论什么课，我都勇敢地举手发言了，胆小的毛病终于摆脱了。在英语课上，我的积极性更高，不仅敢发言，而且还愿意和老师、同学们对话，英语的口语交际能力明显提高了。当初那节英语课一直留在我记忆的最深处，蒋老师如春风般的话语时刻在我耳边响起。

attracted by different jobs because everyone has his own interest and

destination. Many people consider an ideal job as a means of making more money

life.

people around me think that its unrealistic to me. NevertheLess, Ill make

every effort to gain much more knowLedge, patience, methods, etc. to live up to

the name of a qualified psychologist. I believe my dream will come true

someday.

Mid-autumn festival is one of the most important festivals for Chinese

people. At that time, people will come back home and spend time with their

families. The meaning of this festival is to provide people a chance to get

reunion. Chinese people pay special attention to the family reunion. It is a

good tradition, which is inherited for thousands of years. Mooncake is the

classic food, which can represent this festival. The most exciting moment for me

is to appreciate the moon at the balcony and chat with my families. We eat some

snacks and talk so happily. Mid-autumn Festival is part of Chinese culture and

should be reserved forever.

Born in America, Thomas Edison was a great scientist and inventor. He was once thought to be a boy who was not worth educating. In fact, he was a man full of imagination.

I admire Edison a lot because of his great contribution to the world. He had more than 1,000 inventions. In his lifetime, he was always eager to know how things worked, which helped him to earn the nickname the Wizard of Melo Park .He was also so diligent that he worked day and night. And this explained why he had so many great inventions.

What impresses me most is his famous saying, Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration. Probably I cannot be an Edison myself, but I can be a hard-working learner. From him, I realize the secret to success is not when or where you were born, but what you are doing and how you do it in your life.

As time goes by, I have been in junior middle school for three years, and I have too many feelings in the last time to say goodbye to junior high school life.

Three years of drip, it is condensed into a few thin memories.

Rongrong, light wind, how many times we read books under the tree, bird watching, watching the sun; how many times on the roadside flower and tree, see a fountain; how many times to read, read "practice" Dripping water wears through a stone. "innovation", "read the May June is approaching for drifting away. Yuekao Balefire rises from all directions., senior high school entrance examination imminent. Who will The Legendary Swordsman, in late June. Dont take me, God helps those who help themselves "

Every familiar corner of the campus has left us with laughter, and every inch of the campus has spilled our sweat.

The playground played the song of our youth, which aroused our silent beacon fire.

There are our most true and most beautiful memories of the party; the classroom has our most joyous and most pure laughter; the aisle has our deepest and most intimate feelings.

The leaves are green and yellow, yellow and yellow, falling and green, green and yellow... More than one thousand sunrise months behind us today, we have graduated.

After graduation, I can not forget the green tree, yellow leaves, gorgeous flowers, green grass, big stone, blue water, spirit of fish, sweet taste, and beauty, the wonderful sound of birds and cicadas of butterflies, accompanied by breeze, and the memory image of the sun is very beautiful, very beautiful, very true, very true.

After graduation, I can not forget the spiritual wealth of every good teacher and beneficial friend. The initiative and persistence of the Chinese language; the attitude and details of mathematics; the pursuit and efforts of English; the ideas and methods of physics; the seriousness and meticulousness of chemistry; the struggle and striving for political history; the interest and enterprising of the living place; the tenacious and struggling of sports. The praise of success; the comfort of the failure; the jokes of the happy time; the accident in grief... The fragments of memory are fine, fine, wonderful and wonderful.

Junior high school, there is an incredible feeling of heart. Three years of drip, it is condensed into a few thin memories.

After graduating from junior high school, we will go to their respective places for high school. I cant bear these lovely junior high school classmates. However, I know they cant be avoided, but those will be my good memories.

十月一日是一年一度的国庆节,是祖国母亲的生日。祖国母亲今年66周岁了，因此全国都洋溢着喜庆的气氛 。

乘着这气氛，我们一家人来到了山清水秀的外婆家。

中午，吃完了饭，我们就漫步在田间销路，欣赏田园风光，当走到外婆家的地是，看着那娇小的辣椒，像花儿一样的莴笋，竹子般的洋辣椒……一切让人感到一阵欢喜。然而继续向前走就没有这么好的事物了：

一口池塘边，全是一群一群的死鱼漂在水上，旁边的橘子树也枯萎了。

我们再往前十米看，橘子树又是硕果累累，枝繁叶茂。这可真奇怪，就像别人说的水土不同吧!☆

我们又沿着山路向前周，一路上，爸爸妈妈停的向我介绍，还讲了一些他们小时侯的故事。 …… 时间不早了!我们又从另一条路回外婆家，一路上我们看到有很多马齿苋便一路上说说笑笑的把马齿苋摘了一大把，恨不得能有个口袋把它们装下，就这样 我们有回到了外婆家。

这次国庆虽然没有到外面游山玩水，但是去外婆家也饱了我的眼福呀!

I have a lot of friends but Toshi is my best friend.He is a boy. Both of us are good at English, so we often have a chat in English in our spare time. After school, we often play football together on the playground. He runs so fast that I can not catch up with him. He is an excellent student. He not only gets good marks in all subjects but also is very kind and modest. He loves popular songs and also classical music.

Three years ago, I was a cool and detached girl. I never helped others or cried, because I thought that was very boring.

One day an unusual girl rushed into my life. She looks like a boy and she is also very lovely. She is very cheerful. I always feel she is a "Red Sun". She is the most beautiful girl that I have ever seen. She often helps me and plays with me. We became good friends at once. Since then, I have been sanguine.

Now, I am still a happy girl. I‘m often moved by the world. I think our life is so short, and it isn‘t easy for people to live in the world. I‘ve learned to help others and to cry. I‘ve also learned to be happy and grateful. I also understand that crying doesn‘t mean "coward", crying can mean "visualize a bright future!"Though she has lots of new friends and I have many too, she will be my best friend forever, because she has taught me a lot…

Thank you--my best friend!

Whenever I remember my grade school days, I tend to be wistful over. Though no more are those days, I will never forget now wonderful they were. I was efree in my school days and all the year round I lived happily. I was not a hardworking pupil. Every day I directed my attention not to study but to how to out to how to cut classes and class leader as I was. I did not act like one; instead, I even encouraged others to cut classes, too. of course. I was caught out and severely punished. Often in preparing for a test we pupils would work together to devise ways of cheating in the test room. Though I was poor at cheating in any test. I never gave up but would again and again, hoping t way I would get high marks. With the passage of time I have gradually cast off those bad habits I once had always feel embarrassed each time I think of my foolish behavior in 1the past, I owe what I am to all my teachers. Conscientious instruction. Had it not been for them, I would not be a useful member of society as I am today, My grade school days not only added to my experience as a boy but give me now something lasting to remember by. How I wish the past days could come back, for in retrospect they were so wonderful.
