这就是我研制的手机，方便、易懂。

When we are little, we are eager to grow up, so that we can break free of parental discipline even leave them far. Since we were a little child, we have to be governed by teachers in school and endure parent’s ramble at home. These are our growing pains. Besides, study, friendship, sometimes campus romance may trouble us. However, as we grow up, we gradually find that things mentioned above are not pains at all. There are much more serious things brother us. For example, we may be less sensitive to the simple happiness and loss them gradually. It’s hard for us to laugh from our heart. Moreover, we are in the age that we are eager to grow up but afraid to grow up either. The ambivalence afflicts us a lot. However, no matter what happens in our growth, they are parts of our lives. We must accept them actively and do not let the pains prevent us from happiness.

小的时候，我们都渴望长大，以便能脱离父母的管束，甚至离他们远远的。自从孩提起，在学校我们就被老师管着，在家又得忍受父母的絮絮叨叨。这就是我们成长中的烦恼。此外，学习、友情，有时候甚至校园恋情都会来叨扰我们。但是，随着慢慢长大，我们逐渐发现以上这些根本称不上是成长的烦恼，还有很多更烦恼的事让我们纠结不已。例如，我们慢慢地对一些简单的快乐麻木了，于是就失去这些快乐了，我们变得很难发自内心地微笑了。还有，我们正处在渴望长大但又害怕长大的阶段，这种矛盾情绪折磨着我们。但是，不管在成长的过程中遭遇到什么，它们都是我们生活中的一部分，我们要乐观地接受，不让烦恼挤走快乐。

studied panda in the early 1980s went to the wild life and kept trace of wild

giant panda for many years. As a result, he found that it was human being that

made these lovely animals die out. At that time, many people believed that giant

panda became less because of the low rate of newborn babies. But it was not

true. People cut trees for making profit at that time. Panda lose homeland and

they lacked of food. Thanks to these valuable data, the government took the

policy to protect the animals. So today, the number of giant panda is

increasing. People realize the importance of protecting the environment and it

is the best way to protect wild animals, they are the indispensable part of the

nature.

In the last several decades, our earth has been extremely polluted, such as

air pollution, water pollution, noise pollution and so on. In recent years, the

extreme weather becomes more and more frequent. Winter gets colder and summer

becomes hotter and it rains more frequently. All of these warn us that

protecting the environment is a serious and emergent event. As our general

people, we should build proper lifestyle. We should pay attention to water and

light saving. When we go out, we should firstly choose the public

transportation. The most important is that we must realize that we can do a lot

of things to protect our environment. Its our duty to make our home better.

Let’s change from ourselves.

Since I went to middle school, I grew up very fast. On the one hand, I live

in school from Monday to Friday, so I need to learn to get along with roommates.

We share the cleaning work to make sure a good environment. It is everybodys

duty to sweep the floor on turn. On the other hand, I need to solve the problems

from life by myself. Without parents by my side all the time, I learn to face

troubles and figure out all the ways to solve them. I become much independent

and stronger. Now I can deal with my stuff alone.

"Grateful heart, thank you, my life, let me have the courage to do my own......" Whenever I hear this song, was deeply touched. Along the way, I need to thank people is too much: thank my father mother for all her support, thank you grandma and grandpa takes good care of me, but I thank the teachers to me most hard training.

Ginger teacher, thank you. Is that you let me from an ignorant children grow up to be an excellent young pioneers. I the honorary certificate, all saturated with your work. Are you again and again with rest time for us to make up a missed lesson, corrects students papers. Remember that there is a second grade, because Im too proud, examination results some bad, you reminded me in time, learn to be modest, not proud, I corrected the mistake. Thank you so much! Ginger teacher. Is you bring me into the ocean of knowledge, experience of reading pleasure, your wonderful lecture fascinating, have led us into a colorful new world, teach us to be the truth.

Jiang teacher, you give my love now I repay you, but I will return you in high honors!

“感恩的心，感谢有你，伴我一生，让我有勇气做我自己……”每当我听到这首歌，便感慨万千。我一路走来，需要感谢的人实在是太多太多了：感谢爸爸妈妈对我的养育之恩，感谢爷爷奶奶对我的无微不至地的关怀，但我最感谢老师们对我辛勤的培养。

感谢您，姜老师。是您让我从一个无知的孩童成长为一名优秀的少先队员。我那一张张荣誉证书，无不浸透着您的心血。是您一次次用休息时间为我们补课、批改作业。记得二年级时，有一次由于我过于骄傲，考试成绩有些不好，是您及时地提醒了我，学习要谦虚，不能骄傲，使我改正了错误。感谢您!姜老师。是您把我带进了知识的海洋，体会到阅读的快乐，您的精彩讲课引人入胜，把我们领进了一个五彩缤纷的新世界，教给我们做人的道理。

姜老师，您给予我的关爱现在我还无以回报，但我会用优异的成绩来回报您!

Now more and more bike sharing brands have emerged, such as ofo, Mobai,

Wukong bicycle, Xiaoming bicycle and so on, which are convenient for our travel.

As long as we download a software, we can pay some money to rent a car. However,

since I saw some phenomena, I have asked myself, "is bike sharing convenient or

harmful?"

Bike sharing is very popular recently. Ofo software or other sharing

software can be found in almost all mobile phones of "mobile phone family".

However, once my mother came home full of anger, scared me to speak. I shuddered

and asked, "Mom, what makes you so angry?" She put the bag in her hand on the

table and made a loud "pa -". "Your sister helped me install an ofo software in

my mobile phone. I wanted to make it easy to ride back with good medicine, but

today I rented a" broken car "!" I was puzzled: "ofo still has a broken car

"That is, otherwise, how could my feet be bruised?" She moved her foot to me,

and a black wheel mark was still visible. "When I was riding, the chain was

loose. If it wasnt for my fast braking speed, I would have fallen off!" Since

then, Ive been less fond of bike sharing.

Once I went to a make-up class, I saw two workers sitting on a Mobi

bicycle, shaking and laughing. Dad was very indignant and said: "this kind of

person really does not speak of public morality! Make fun of the public car I

know that they wont do this with their cars. My heart is like bleeding. Why,

they want to "bully" bike sharing.

Once I went out to play. The weather was very good and I was in a good

mood. I look up to the side, really do not see do not know, a look scared. A man

secretly removed the wheel of an ofo and replaced it with a bad one on his own.

After that, he rode off on the ofo wheel. Only the ofo little yellow car was

lying alone, and the wheels were not installed properly. It is like a injured

little girl, whose legs have been taken away, like vanca, can not endure the

sunshine of life. At that time, my tears began to drop. Is bike sharing "shared"

or "exclusive"?

There have been news reports that a boy under 12 years old riding a shared

bicycle was run over by a car and killed. At that time, the boys mother shared

the companys money to compensate for her sons death. Its clearly her sons fault.

He didnt ride a bike before he was 12 years old. I didnt say he deserved it. But

the fact is better than eloquence. The death of her son is not the

responsibility of the sharing company, but his own fault!

I once saw a young man riding ofo without scanning the code. A middle-aged

man pushed ofo into his home. Have you ever seen someone use Mobi without

decoding as fitness equipment? The sound of chain jingling is like a demon with

a chain in his hand crawling out of hell. Thats selfish!

Someone took an image that put the broken ofo and Moby together to fill a

small parking lot. After riding shared bicycles, people park them on the side of

the road at will. As long as a passer-by gently knocks down a car, it will fall

down like a domino.

Have you ever thought that sharing resources is closely related to each of

us, but all the harm they bring is due to selfishness. Bike sharing is just one

example. Ive seen shared bookstores where people leave books on their desks

after reading, so that they cant go home. "Convenience to others, convenience to

oneself." As long as we are convenient for others, we will also benefit

ourselves.

I have a happy family. My family have five poeple:grandpa, grandma, father, mother, and me.

我有一个幸福的家庭。我的家庭有五口人：爷爷，奶奶，爸爸，妈妈，和我。

It s about one and a half month away from the Chinese New Year, It is a festival celebrated by the Chinese people at the beginning of the lunar calendar year.

As of the Chinese traditional customs, our parents and grandparents will sweep every corner of the house and clean the windows until they gleam, and washing clothes, buying foods and goods for the new year s future use and presents.

Children will be the most benefited group during this feast period.

One month before that, they are expecting the new clothes, delicious foods.

The firecrackers and the year s allowance for their increased ages.

In recent years, with the rising of the standard of life, Chinese tend to make various holiday plans to spend a different and meaningful new year.

Such as traveling abroad, or be absorbed in their hobbies, and even work.

Why today we try to spend our Chinese new year in such a different way? I think that s because this is a era of free life and personality high-ranking.

Though there are still something traditional, our young generation is attempting to make something new and suitable for ourselves.

And we would like to take something really worth to be cherished in our memorable treasures.

That s amazing and wonderful!

I ll always keep in mind that the Chinese new year is a great feast inherited from our ancestors, but if necessary, I would like to enjoy it by some ways personal.

With the development of our society， energy in the world bees more and more

limited， so it is quite important for us to save energy and to protect our

environment。 As a student， there are a lot of methods we can do to save energy

at home。 For example， first， we can turn off the light as well as other

appliances when we are not using them。 Second， recycle the waste water， paper

and other waste so that we can reuse them。 Whats more， it is suggested to use

public transportation more instead of private cars.

Above all， everyone can make a great contribution to our environment。 I

I’m going to have a busy weekend! On Saturday, I’m going visit my friends

by car. Because I haven’t seen them for a long time. Then, I’m going to the

bookstore on foot. I’m going to read lots of books there. On Sunday morning, I’m

going to go for a walk. Then, in the afternoon, I’m going to go shopping with my

mother. Then, in the evening, we are going to watch TV together. That will be

fun! What about you? What are you going to do on the weekend?

My high school life, nothing exciting - from flat to start, but also in the flat end. Can not call it exciting, but it can not be pleased to lament the difficult, but it can not be portrayed as odd. But "dull" is not possible to rub out the highlights of my life, but it will show a more bright, brilliant ... ... 我的高一生活平平淡淡——是从平淡中开始，又是在平淡中落幕。既不能称之为精彩，又不能欣然去感叹它的艰难，更不能将它描写得那样曲折离奇。但“平淡”是不可能抹杀掉我生活中的亮点的，反而会将它呈现得更加明亮，辉煌……

Long and short years, I learned the most important thing, not a textbook knowledge of those endless, but people learned how to do - to get along with everyone in the days, I learned a technique called "unity" thing, it allows us to hear the voice of 54 hearts beat together; short life in boarding school a few months, I learned to "inclusive", which is a blend of our strength; in ride out the storm with friends when I know the "concern", a pair of "It better to give than to receive." The best interpretation of ... Yes, I learned a lot of things like that, they are impossible to find in the textbook knowledge, they can not be called a capability. They are the people, heart to heart between the alternating collision, can really feel the same things, maybe you can in an instant perception of their true meaning, but maybe you really can not fathom the life out of the mystery ... ...

Perhaps this is my high school life, perhaps it will make you feel very empty, but it really is I want to sway the hearts of all, but I am very clumsy, but seemingly meaningful words can not make you feel I feel nothing at this moment ... ... 漫长而又短暂的岁月里，我学到的最为重要的东西，并不是课本上那些层出不穷的知识，而是学到了应该怎样去做人——在与大家一起相处日子里，我学会了一种叫做“团结”的东西，它能让我们听到 54颗心一起跳动的声音;在住校几个月的短暂生活里，我学会了“包容”，这是一种将我们融为一体的力量;在与好友共度的难关之时，我懂得了“关心”，一个对“ It’ better to give than to receive.”的最好诠释……是的，我学到了很多诸如此类的东西，它们都是在课本中所无从寻觅的知识，它们也不能被称作是一种能力。它们是在人与人，心与心之间，交替碰撞的时候，才能真正所感受到的东西，也许在瞬间你就可以感悟它们的真谛，但也许你真的就一辈子也无法参透出其中的玄机…… 也许这就是我的高一生活，也许它会让您觉得很空洞，但这确实是我内心深处所想要挥洒出的一切，只不过我那些看似隽永却笨拙无比的文字无法让您感受到我此时此刻的心情罢了……

There are many festivals in our country, such as the Spring Festival, the Lantern Festival, the Mid-Autumn festival, but the most memorable one is the Dragon Boat Festival this year.

Such suits are loose fitting and have a body piece that either zips up the back or the front. The open face lets free flow of air around the head area and keeps the body temperature under control.

There are many arguments about the advantages and disadvantages of examinations. Some people think that examinations can help them review the lessons regularly, while others maintain that too many examinations have frustrated them.

To me, I think an examination is a good thing for both teachers and students. Teachers can find out how much the students have grasped and then improve their teaching; students, on the other hand, will learn what their weak points are and then study even harder.

All in all, we should not waste time arguing whether examinations are good or not. What we should do is to try to improve the exam system and try to adjust it to our different requirements.

Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human beings heart the lure of

wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of whats next and the joy of the game

of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station:

so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from

men and from the infinite, so long are you young.

An individual human existence should be like a river—small at first,

narrowly contained within its banks, and rushing passionately past boulders and

over waterfalls. Gradually the river grows wider, the banks recede, the waters

flow more quietly, and in the end, without any visible break, they become merged

in the sea, and painlessly lose their individual being.

Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the

appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of

sixty more than a boy of twenty. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years.

We grow old by deserting our ideals.

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.

Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
