Almost everybody in the world has gone on field trips, well I have of

course. In the whole world, only one leaf falls on the ground, and that second

could not be wasted; for off we walk along my diary.

A quarter of a mile, you could see a wonderful building; surrounded by tall

trees, among them were blades of grass, and flowers of all kinds. Now grab your

notebook, and begin to see the amazing things you could learn in QING XIANG YUAN

[清香园].

First, I shall take you to the building, which stands right in the middle

of the place. Inside, you could see a laboratory, and in it were scientists

investigating how to get healthy sauce. I have brought you here all to learn

about sauce, for sauce is very important. The scientists job is to make sure

that every bottle of sauce had the right amount of: Water, salt, mushroom, peas

and wheat. And then it is put in bottles and covered in boxes. And then they

will be sent to the supermarket by trucks.

Many people noticed that, most of the sauces in supermarket are from the

place which I have shown you today. And I hope that reading this diary that I

have written, shall give you some knowledge. The next thing that you should

learn is the person who made this wonderful place; and who gave us the wonderful

healthy sauce. And that person is: FENG DAO REN [冯道人].

I think it is time, that we leave this place. Say goodbye! ‘Children’,

“Goodbye! Bye-bye…!” and off we go to our school again.

尊敬的校长:

您好。

我是五年级的一名学生，我和我的朋友都喜欢在一个干净的校园里学习。可一想到现实，就感觉大吃一惊。如，许多树叶子没有人处理，没有一点环保意识;在公共场所趁别人不注意时乱丢垃圾;同学们在饮水机那里接水时，水总会掉在地上，一脚踩下去，会把地板弄得很脏……

我认为造成这些问题的原因主要有两点：第一是大家的环保意识不够强，没有充分地认识环境的恶劣。第二是学校要多举行保护环境的活动，让学生知道保护环境的重要性。因此，我想给校长提几条意见和一些建议。

1.学校应多搞一些活动,让同学们加强环保意识，在学校多搞一些关于卫生的活动，宣传垃圾堆满地球会怎么样。地球母亲会不会哭泣。

2.学校应多多管理学生，让学生不能在路边买早点，不能把垃圾食品带到学校去，不然会把教室搞得一团糟。

3.在学校四周树立一些警告牌，让同学们看到那些警告牌，能主动改掉自己的不足，让每一个同学都做干净的人，也要让每一个同学互相监督对方，处理掉别人乱扔的垃圾。

校长，保护地球，是我们每个人的责任。让我们一起来保护地球，做一个爱干净的人。

此致

敬礼

Today, my mother has something to do, so she needs to meet her friends. I

make a promise that I will clean the house when she returns. But I become lazy

soon. I start to play computer games and forget my promise. When I remember, I

start my work quickly. I feel so bad to almost let my mother down. Luckily, I

finish my job and my mother feels happy.

敬爱的英语老师：

您好!

我是您的学生李换双

自从初一开始，我就与您直接接触。记得刚开始我就是一名普通的

学生，后来因为我的英语成绩出众，您指定我担任英语课代表，我很高兴的接受了。从此以后，对英语除了喜爱，还有责任在此。实时的英语测验，我都得到了不错的成绩，自己心里非常高兴。但是随着时间的流逝，我的骄傲油然而生，慢慢的成绩开始下滑，有一次课堂上出题，我只得到了及格分。您给我的批语，是不理想。我看到三个大红字，在我的作业本上，心里悔恨极了。真是骄傲使人落后，耐心的听了您的讲解，改正错误，继续努力学习。

还有一次，学校食堂停电了，没有饭吃。我就去了您的家里，您拿出来自己家里的方便面和烧饼。硬要塞给我，我接受了，回去跟同学分享了，到处炫耀是您给我的，我可高兴了。如今，我就要参加中考了，马上就毕业了，马上就要离开您了。心里对您充满了感激，却又不知道该如何表达。唯一自己能做的就是，以后好好学习，找到好的工作，经常回来看望您。

最后祝愿您工作顺利，身体健康!

Hailey: Hey Johnny, you are looking extra cool today yeah! I am sure that

you could be the winner of this year’s best speech. The judge is the most

popular girl in school Janet Cross Ward! Good luck to you Johnny!

Johnny: Thanks Hailey and good luck to you too, I like the sash, ha!

Hailey and Johnny both thought that they were going to tie, but suddenly

their father said, “Hailey, Johnny, come here please!” “Coming,” said Hailey and

Johnny rushing towards their father, “Please help me open these packages the

teacher gave you.”

Hailey: Hey, Johnny I love packages, what do you think it is?

Johnny: Don’t know Hailey, but I guess that we will just have to find out

on our own by untying the knots to find out, because that is the best way.

Johnny began examining the knot and to untie it; at last he untied the knot

and found it inside a piece of paper, and on it were some words for the speech.

Hailey on the other hand was trying to untie the knot, but couldn’t do it just

like Johnny did; she became very, very frustrated.

Hailey: Oh! I wish that these silly people won’t tie these strings to

tight; I can’t even get it untied! Johnny, how did you do it? I’m

astonished?

Johnny: Oh, I just examined the knot to untie it, I love that idea!

Hailey still couldn’t untie it; at last she made up her own mind.

Hailey: That it is, I shall cut it up, and besides it is a package, right?

Oh how I wish I knew what is inside my package! Give a knife!

Johnny: Oh don’t cut it Hailey! What nice piece of string this is!

Hailey: What signifies a bit of thick string that is useless in the

future?

Johnny: It is whipcord, Hailey; don’t you know anything that this string

could be of use to us? This could even be our only hope in the future!

Hailey: Whipcord? Well then, what signifies a bit of whipcord; we don’t

even need it in our speech! Besides, the whipcord is a package string.

The speech began, Johnny read his lines perfectly, and even did a dance

with his string. For Hailey she read her lines perfectly but couldn’t do any

dance; and so the winner was no other than Johnny.

Hailey: Maybe the string made you lucky Johnny, but next time the string

will cause you trouble; I am warning you again Johnny.

The next month, there was an aim competition and Johnny is going to compete

with his sister Hailey. And so it is Johnny Vs Hailey. The competition began;

the only audience was Mr. Lolo.

Mr. Lolo: Okay, Hailey is first to aim with her bow; remember the rules, if

her string breaks there is no allowed borrowing!

And so Hailey was up, she aimed her bow at 8 and got 80 points; her second

aim landed on 9; and so she got 90+80=170 points! She was about to aim until her

string broke, Hailey had no other string to tie it onto, and so there a chance

that the audience Mr. Lolo would say…

Mr. Lolo: You’re out, Hailey! No prize for you, Hahahahahaha; okay, Johnny

your up! Wish you good luck! Break a leg! Ha!

And so Johnny was up, he lifted up his arrow and aimed perfectly on ten,

and so he got 100 points; his second aim missed and landed on 9; he got

100+90=190 points; he liked Hailey broke a string on the last aim too, and so

Mr. Lolo had another chance of saying the word…

Mr. Lolo: You’re out! Ha! No prize for you too, Hahahahahaha; okay…

Mr. Lolo didn’t even finished when Johnny pulled out the string from his

pocket and tied it onto the bow; then he made his aim and won the prize. Hailey

told Johnny after the competition…

Hailey: I’m sorry Johnny, I congratulate you! And you’re right, I should

have kept the string; next time I will keep one if I have a chance.

Dear Li Hua,

I had a birthday party at my home last month .I invited some of my

classmates to the party . The party began at 8a.m .on Sunday . All my classmates

were not be late. I was very happy. We ate some western food.They were very

nice.Some of my classmates brought their own food. They shared their food with

us. Because they are very friendly.

We also played games. It was very interesting. All my classmates were very

happy. I danced with my best friends. And all my classmates danced very

beautifully! They sang a song Happy Birthday to me. And then they gave me a

lot of presents. I was very thankful. All of us had a good time on that day!

Do you have free time? I want to visit you next year?

Everybody loves reading right, well here is a story that tells you how a

little boy didn’t like reading; at last became so nervous in his show that he

had to read a book that soon became a famous writer.

There was once a little boy that loved to play, but the only thing he

didn’t like was to read a book. When he was bored of playing, he did not go to

read a book, but to play video games. One day his parents became sick of this

habit and so thought of a plan to make him like reading.

And so one day when school was over, the boy’s parents went to his school,

and found his teacher and said, “Dear teacher, I am wondering if by any chance

you could help us with a little small problem.”

The teacher agreed, and so they told them their problem. The teacher

remembered all that she needed to do, and waited until Friday arrived. When it

was the last class of the day, she told the whole class that each one of them is

going to put on a show for the whole school. The little boy thought that that

was a great idea. After he had finished school, he immediately ran home to get

materials which were toys and prepared the other things too. When he was ready,

he began to make up a routine. But he couldn’t think of anything except playing;

when it was the day before it was time to put on the show, the little boy still

didn’t come up with any routine; and so he thought and thought. When his parents

said that it was time to go to school to put on the show, the little boy was as

nervous as a chicken in a forest with a wolf beside it.

His parents said that if he couldn’t think of any routine then he will just

have to read a book. The boy had no choice, when he finished he came up with a

routine he went to school just in time for the show.

He loved making a routine by then, from that time on he loved reading, and

when he was bored of playing he began to read.

After and few years he became famous and was very proud of that day’s

lesson.

There was once a little girl named Jerry that lived with her mother in a

small cottage in the forest. They were very poor, and could only afford to eat

bread. “Oh no!” cried Jerry’s mother one afternoon, “We ran out of bread, and it

is almost time for supper!” “Do we have any eggs left?” asked Jerry, “No, none;”

said her mother very worried.

“Don’t worry mother,” said Jerry suddenly, “I shall go and get some in the

market.” Then she ran off through the forest to the market with her basket.

Along the way, she was quite tired, so she rested upon some big rocks. It

gradually became late and Jerry decided to go and buy the bread, but suddenly a

wolf cried out behind her; “Please, please help me!” cried the wolf, “I have a

problem that nobody wants to help!” then he held out his paw to Jerry, there was

a thorn stuck to his paw. “Is this a trick?” asked Jerry, “Because wolves like

to eat people.”

“Oh no,” answered the wolf, “We do not eat people now, we only want to eat

some bread with mustard on top;” then he cried again. Jerry quickly knelt down

and removed the thorn from the wolf’s paw; “Oh thank you! Thank you!” shouted

the wolf joyfully, “I shall never forget your kindness!” then the wolf returned

to his home. Jerry walked to the market to buy healthy fresh bread, and then she

ran back home with a full basket of it.

On the way, she was still tired; so she stayed at the same place. As she

was about to go, some greedy wolves blocked her way. They had water in their

mouths and said, “Give us the bread!” said a wolf, “Where are the mustard?”

asked a second wolf, “Just give it to us!” shouted the third wolf. Jerry had no

choice, as she was about to give the fresh bread away to the wolf, the wolf that

she had saved before rushed out and said, “Leave her alone!” he growled, “That

girl saved me before, and so leave her alone!” he shouted again.

The other wolves had no choice but to obey, they walked away. Jerry thanked

her new friend the wolf, and the wolf said that he was supposed to do that in

return. In order to show Jerry’s respect for him, she gave him half the bread,

and returned home immediately to tell her mother about it.

They had some bread that evening, and Jerry’s mother including Jerry

herself both became good friends with the wolf. The wolf also had plenty of

bread, and moved his home close to Jerry.

The moral of this story was: if you help others and they will help you in

return, you help them again then friends you’ll become. It will be a peaceful

life if friendship is all around us.

亲爱的小多多：

再过二十五天就是你三岁的生日了。哥哥在这里预祝你生日快乐!

哥哥还想写下一些关于你的美好回忆，想要对你说一些话。即使现在你还不怎么读得懂，但我相信在未来的某个日子里，你会幸福地读着它，也会幸福地微笑的。

也许像我这般年龄的孩子是不希望自己的爸爸妈妈为自己添一个弟弟或妹妹的。因为他们会认为爸爸妈妈对自己百分之百的爱会被分走许多。但我却一直渴望有一个可爱的弟弟妹妹。那样的话，当学校放假后，回到家里的我便不会感觉到寂寞无聊了。所以，当妈妈告诉我有一个小小的你乖乖地躺在她的肚子里时，我想我的梦想竟然可以成真了。我想，那时的我是不是把你当作了妈妈送给我的礼物了呢?于是，我们开始期盼着你的到来。

终于，在那个冬末的阳光灿烂的午后，娇小可爱的你来到了我们家，成为了爸爸妈妈的女儿，也成为了我最最宝贝的妹妹!

虽然我们兄妹岁数相差不小，但你的机灵，你的善良，你的睿智，甚至你的任性，都让我喜欢，让我爱。

还记得吗?那天我将我的……发明奖捧回家，妈妈高兴地说她要好好地为我庆祝庆祝。当时你只有一岁半吧，但你却能感受到我们的快乐。你咿咿呀呀地说：“雨雨是不是得了个大红花呀?”一边说一边向我的怀抱扑来，猝不及防地给了我一个“熊抱”，又忙不迭地在我的脸上“啄”着，“哥哥好棒呀!耶!”我和妈妈都笑着点着你的鼻尖说你真是一个小机灵鬼。

我喜欢滑轮滑，而你就喜欢看我滑。而我也乐意为你“表演”，愿意让你开心。而那次，我却不小心摔倒了，膝盖被蹭破了好大一片皮。我停下来坐在花台边查看伤口。你跌跌绊绊地从妈妈的身边跑过来，将两只胖胖的小手放在我的眼角轻轻擦拭，又将小嘴贴近我的膝盖，轻轻张嘴向我的伤口吹气，边吹边说道：“雨雨哥，你一定很痛吧?会不会和我打针时一样痛呢?我给你吹一吹，好吗?”

就如我想在寂寞时能有个玩伴，你对我这个哥哥更是十分依赖。而我去年正是小学五年级，接近面临小升初，学习任务较多。在我学习时，你总会在一边地玩着布偶，静静地等着我完成作业之后好同你一起玩耍。有一次，我正背着古诗《题西林壁》。我不停地念读着，“不识庐山真面目”,而你已经很快地接了上来，“只缘身在此山中。”我惊喜地将你抱起，问道：“横看什么呢，多多?”“嗯，嗯，横看成岭侧成峰，远近高低各不同。雨雨哥。”我惊喜地冲妈妈叫道：“妈妈，你看我们多多已经会背诗了。”从此，我们开始教你背一些短小的古诗。现在，你竟已可以背下三十多首了。

当然，你又总是顽皮而任性的。你会将我的钢笔扔进鱼缸里，还说要让鱼儿也学学写字;你还会将我的作业藏到你的布娃娃的背包里，嚷嚷着布娃娃也要上学去。而见我生气了，你又会牵着我的两手，晃悠着小身姿，贴近我的耳朵撒着娇：“雨雨哥哥，爱我你就抱抱我嘛!”

这就是你，我的好妹妹。我最最亲爱的，如小精灵般的小可爱!

再次祝你生日快乐，天天开心!

愿你永远健康美丽!

永远爱你的哥哥 雨雨

Dear Miss Zhu,

亲爱的周老师，

How time flies! It has been a few years since I left high school, but I still remember you in my heart, because you’re the best teacher in my mind. It’s not only because you taught me knowledge, but also you taught me how to study. I have really benefitted a lot from you. So I would like to express my great thanks to you, and share my life in college with you.

时间飞逝!我高中毕业已经几年了，但我仍然把你记在我的心里，因为你是我心目中最好的老师。这不仅是因为你教与我知识，而且你还教我如何学习。从你身上我真的获益匪浅。所以我想向你表达我的感谢，并与你分享我的大学生活。

Now I’m studying in Hunan First Normal College, which is Chairman Mao’s former school. I major in English, because I find it so fun and interesting. As far as I’m concerned, our English Department is the best department in our college. The teachers in our department are knowledgeable, experienced, and warm-hearted. And my classmates are nice, friendly and helpful. Thus, I have a good atmosphere to study. When I have difficulties in study, I always ask my teachers for help or discuss with my classmates. Through their help, I have made great progress in my English study.

我现在在湖南第一师范学校学习，这是主席之前呆过的学校。我的专业是英语，因为我觉得它很有趣。我觉得我们英语系是我校最好的学部。我们系的老师知识渊博，经验丰富，热心肠。我的同学们也很和蔼，友好，乐于助人。因此，我拥有一个很好的学习氛围。当我在学习上遇到困难时，我总是向我的老师寻求帮助或与同学讨论。在他们的帮助下，我在英语学习上取得了很大的进步。

College life is much different from high school life. In college, we should acquire knowledge as well as improve our integrated abilities. There are a lot of English classes for us to learn, such as Basic English, Oral English, Listening, Reading, Writing, Translation, Grammar, English Literature, and so on. I enjoy these classes very much. Except English, we have many other subjects to learn. Life seems so busy here but it’s so fruitful for me.

大学生活与高中生活有很大的不同。在大学，我们要获取知识也要提高我们的综合能力。我们要上很多的英语课，比如，基础英语，英语口语，听力阅读，写作，翻译，语法，英语文学等。我非常喜欢这些课。除英语外，我们还要学习很多其他科目。在这里生活是如此的忙碌，但这对我来说是如此丰硕的收获。

After class, I usually go to the English Corner. There I can practice my oral English by talking with foreigners or chatting with my schoolmates. Now, I’m able to communicate with foreigners well. Sometimes I also take part in some social activities. For instance, last weekend I attended an interesting play. As it was my first performance, I felt a little nervous at the beginning. But when I appeared on the stage, I made every audience laugh happily. I was so proud of myself at that moment, because this was my first achievement.

下课后，我经常去英语角。在那里我可以通过与外国人或我的同学聊天来练习我的英语口语。现在我可以很好的和外国人交流了。有时候我也可以参加一些社交活动。例如，上周我参加了一个有趣的表演。因为是我第一次表演，所以一开始的时候我觉得有点紧张。但当我出现在舞台上时，我让每一个观众都开心的笑了。在那一刻，我为我自己感到骄傲，因为这是我的第一个收获。

What about your present life? I hope to hear from you soon.

你目前生活怎么样呢?希望很快能收到你的回信。

At last, I hope everything goes well with you. Please give my best regards to your family.

最后，我希望你一切顺利。请代我向你的家人问好。

Sincerely yours,

Jason

My birthday is on Sunday. My parents are going to have a birthday party at

home. I invite my friends to come to the party.

At the party. They give me many small presents. Such as cards, picture

books, pens.

They sing Happy Birthday to me. My mother makes a big cake for me. I cut

the cake into small pieces and give them out. we sing and dance.

We have a good time at the party.

Today was Saturday, early in the morning, I woke up and stayed at home the

whole morning to watch TV. After finishing my lunch, I had nothing to do, so I

decided to call my friends out. I headed to the coffee shop which was near a

square. There were a lot of people in the square, some women were dancing and

singing, while some men were taking the chess. I walked into the coffee shop,

chose a table which was near the window, so that I could see the outside

scenery. When my friends came, we talked happily, we shared the things that

happened during these days. Then all my pressure was relieved, I forgot about

the annoyance on my study. At that moment, I was enjoying theTimetalking with

my friends. I had the great time this afternoon.

I have a brother. He is younger than me. When our parents have bought us

presents, I will be the first to take presents, or if there is something to eat,

I will make the choice before my brother. My mother educates me that I should

share things with my brother. Until then I realize the meaning of sharing.

Dear Tom,

Im just writing to let you know that were all well, and I hope you are, too. Unfortunately, Ive got some rather bad news for you: Im afraid I made a bit of a mess of Johns car. Anyway, heres what happened.

We were on our way to Carols after a long party, and I suppose it must have been about eleven o’clock. Well, the last few miles back home were really dark and deserted. I now realize I was probably going a bit too fast for a country lane because, although the road was fairly straight, I drove up onto the curb and went into a tree.

Of course, John was absolutely furious and started shouting at me and cursing. After we d argued for a few moments, we decided to look at the damage, and he calmed down a bit. Well, we found we could move the car, but the wing was caught on the wheel, so we couldnt drive it. I tried to pull the wing clear, but I didnt succeed.

Anyway, John went off to phone for a breakdown lorry, but while he was away, I had another go at the wing and this time succeeded in pulling it right off. I threw it onto the back seat, and by that time John got back and we were ready to go?so we didnt need the breakdown lorry at all. John has more or less forgiven me now, but he was very angry with me for a few days. I suppose I was a bit careless.

Well, thats all for now. Next time I write I hope Ill have better news for you.

Yours sincerely,

Linda Chen

My home is on the first floor. There are two bedrooms, a kitchen and a

living room. I’m a child. I have a nice bedroom. In my bedroom, there is

bedroom, a closet, an air- conditioner and so on. My closet is green. My bed is

blue. I love my bedroom very much.

A tree has three main parts, the roots, the branches and the leaves. Under

the ground, the roots spread out so that the tree can stand firm. Above the

ground, the roots form the trunk, and the trunk supports the branches.

Near the top of the tree, the trunk divides into branches. At the top of

the tree, the leaves grow out of the branches. the leaves receive sunlight to

help the whole tree grow.

亲爱的戴维：

请原谅我收到您12月7日的来信后迟迟未复，现将原因告诉您，相信您务必会谅解的。您的来信到来时，我正巧在香港，家人无法及时转递。你的信一向放在我写字台上，直到我回到才看见，拖至这天才回信，深表歉意。
