On a Chinese farm

In summer holidays, I often go to my grandma's home. My grandma is very glad. She is a farmer. There is a farm behind the house. They grow rice in summer and corn in autumn. There are some vegetables on the farm. I play there every day. There are many animals there. I love playing with the cats and dogs. They also have some chickens there. Sometimes I help them feed the chickens. There is a small house in the yard. Some ducks are living there. They shout every morning. The quiet yard becomes so alive suddenly. But I think the voice is the music of the world.

 (Sun Chang from Class14, Grade2 of Huai an Foreign Language School)

Comment: You have the greatest ability in your English study. You can describe what happens on the farm well. It shows out your love to the nature and life, and your good talent in English comes out freely.   (teacher: Wang Kuisheng)

 

 

Believing myself

The mid--term examination is gone. Someone is happy, she or he has got very good marks. But someone is angry or rueful, he or she hasn't approved of their own score. I'm unhappy, too. My score is not very good.

But I think marks aren't the most important. If you get very good marks, of course, you are great. But you can't become  proud, you must go on studying   in an industrious way. If you haven't got good marks in the examination, you needn't lose heart. Crying is useless. You must study with more and more assiduity(刻苦；勤奋). You can win next time.

Anyway, we will all study hard, and we   can all get good marks at last, I believe.

(Song Dian From Class 15,Grade 2 of Huai an Foreign Language School)

Comment: you have great talent in all your subjects. Besides, you are one of the outstanding students. I'm proud of you and expecting your great progress. I'm glad you have great confidence in yourself.

1.Life is like a sea and only a strong--willed man can cross it.

生活就像海洋，只有意志坚强的人，才能到达彼岸。

2.There are huge waves in life, and sharp windings on the road.

人生若波澜，世路有屈曲。

3.Come with a whole heart and go without even a straw.

捧着一颗心来，不带半根草去。

4.The greatest power you possess for succeeding in life is your understanding that life gives you a fresh start any moment you choose to start fresh.

你在生活中获得成功的最大动力，就是当你选择重新开始的时刻，生活都会给你一个新的开端。

A trip to Beijing

Last summer, my parents and I went to Beijing for our summer holidays.

We took a plane there. In the plane, I felt a bit nervous, because that was my first flight trip. But only five minutes later I felt better again. Everything looked so different from the air. Sights became more and   more beautiful.

Several hours later, we arrived in Beijing. My parents and I were very happy.

There we visited one of the great wonders in the world ---- the   Great Wall. We have never seen such a high, wide and long wall with   our own eyes before. So we took as many pictures as possible there.

We have also visited some other places. We enjoyed ourselves.
