一、Chinese New Year
Chinese New Year is the most important festival for Chinese people all over the world. It is also called the Spring Festival or the Lunar New Year. The exact date of the Spring Festival on the Western calendar changes from year to year. However, Chinese New Year takes place between January 1 and February 19.
On the Chinese calendar every year has an animal's name. These animals are the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, ram, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. A Chinese legend says that these twelve animals had a race. The first year was named after the rat, the winner. The other eleven years were named according to the order in which the animals arrived in the race. The clever rat jumped onto the ox's back, and then at the end jumped over the ox's head to arrive first!
The Chinese believe that a person born in a particular year has some of the characteristics of that animal.

So the frog and the toad went down the road to a big oak tree.
“I am home,” said the toad. “Come in and I will make tea.”
But Mr. Frog said, in a deep croak, “I must not roam far from home. I will be off to my home near the pond.”

三、Brothers and Sisters
My sister is a year older than me and we've been sharing a room since I was 3 years old. We are very close, but we also fight all the time. Our fights are never serious. I can't remember the cause of our fights now, but they were always over small things. Sometimes it was just over a particular word I used or maybe just because my sister gave my teddy bear a hug and I was unhappy about it. We don't take our fights very seriously as if all the fights are a game. I think it's perfectly okay for kids to fight with their brothers or sisters. Now I'm a teenager, and I even think that they're sweet memories!

On Discount “折扣”之我見(jiàn)
打折一直以來(lái)是各商家吸引顧客的一種手段。每逢節(jié)假日，這種現(xiàn)象更甚。
對(duì)于此，有些人認(rèn)為打折商品物美價(jià)廉，很值得購(gòu)買(mǎi)，既節(jié)省了金錢(qián)，又滿足了自己的需求；而有些人則不認(rèn)同。這些人始終堅(jiān)信“一分價(jià)錢(qián)一分貨”，折扣商品可能是質(zhì)量或性能上存在問(wèn)題缺陷的產(chǎn)品，不能貪圖一時(shí)便宜而買(mǎi)回低質(zhì)量不好的產(chǎn)品。
我個(gè)人看法，不能絕對(duì)地說(shuō)折扣商品好或者是不好，應(yīng)該一分為二的看問(wèn)題。在購(gòu)買(mǎi)打折產(chǎn)品時(shí)，要嚴(yán)格檢查其質(zhì)量和性能，這樣就既能保證低價(jià)，又能買(mǎi)到質(zhì)優(yōu)的產(chǎn)品。

My attitude of "discount"
The discount, a way of promotion, has been chosen by various businesses as an effective means to attract more customers. Especially in holiday, this phenomenon is even more such.
For this thing, some people think the discounted merchandise is worth buying, which can not only save money, but also to meet their needs. While, some ones do not agree with that point of view. These people have always firmly believed that the price always presents the real quality of goods. Those discount merchandise may has some defect problems on the quality or bad performance, they cannot just for the sake of saving expense to buy back some products with bad low qualities. My personal opinion is that we cannot judge the discounted good or poor dogmatically, but we should look into two parts. When purchasing the discounted products, it is necessary to strictly check the quality and performance, so that you can guarantee both the low cost and high quality.

我則認(rèn)為，旅游業(yè)的發(fā)展是把雙刃劍。我們應(yīng)該客觀看待。在發(fā)展旅游業(yè)的同時(shí)更應(yīng)該多多注意對(duì)環(huán)境的保護(hù)和一些社會(huì)問(wèn)題的發(fā)生。

Tourism Fever
As a country that has a rich cultural heritage and enormous magnificent natural landscape, China has become one of the world's most popular tourist destinations. In recent years, batches of foreign tourists enter in China to realize their pursuit of ancient and mysterious civilizations.
For this, some people think this is a good opportunity for China to expand the development of the tourism industry. Firstly, it can stimulate domestic development of a series of related industries such as hotels, catering, products retail and other economic benefits for the country. Secondly, It can promote multi-cultural exchange, which is conducive to eich Chinese cultural elements. On the other hand, there are those ones who hold a pessimistic view. They think that accompanied by the development of the tourism industry, there surely follow a series of environmental and social problems, such as environmental pollution, the destruction of the natural landscape, as well as national cultural differences conflict.
I think that the development of tourism is a double-edged sword. We should take an objective view. Tourism development should pay enough attention to the protection of the environment and prevents from some of the social problems.

However mean your life is,meet it and live it do not shun it and call it hard names.It is not so bad as you are.It looks poorest when you are richest.The fault-finder will find faults in paradise.Love your life,poor as it is.You may perhaps have some pleasant,thrilling,glorious hourss,even in a poor-house.The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man's abode;the snow melts before its door as early in the spring.I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there,and have as cheering thoughts,as in a palace.The town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any.May be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving.Most think that they are above being supported by the town;but i
Youth
Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind; it is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees; it is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions; it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
Youth means a tempera-mental predominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20. 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 a
nd turns the spring back to dust.
Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being’s heart the lure of wonder, the unfailing childlike appetite of what’s 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.
When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism, then you are grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up, to catch waves of optimism, there is hope you may die young at 80. 譯文：
青春
青春不是年華，而是心境；青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，而是深沉的意志，恢宏的想象，炙熱的戀情；青春是生命的深泉在涌流。
青春氣貫長(zhǎng)虹，勇銳蓋過(guò)怯弱，進(jìn)取壓倒茍安。如此銳氣，二十后生而有之，六旬男子則更多見(jiàn)。年歲有加，并非垂老，理想丟棄，方墮暮年。
歲月悠悠，衰微只及肌膚；熱忱拋卻，頹廢必致靈魂。憂煩，惶恐，喪失自信，定使心靈扭曲，意氣如灰。
無(wú)論年屆花甲，擬或二八芳齡，心中皆有生命之歡樂(lè)，奇跡之誘惑，孩童般天真久盛不衰。人人心中皆有一臺(tái)天線，只要你從天上人間接受美好、希望、歡樂(lè)、勇氣和力量的信號(hào)，你就青春永駐，風(fēng)華常存。
一旦天線下降，銳氣便被冰雪覆蓋，玩世不恭、自暴自棄油然而生，即使年方二十，實(shí)已垂垂老矣；然則只要樹(shù)起天線，捕捉樂(lè)觀信號(hào)，你就有望在八十高齡告別塵寰時(shí)仍覺(jué)年輕。
Life
By Langston Hughes
Life can be good,
Life can be bad,
Life is mostly cheerful,
But sometimes sad.
Life can be dreams,
Life can be great thoughts;
Life can mean a person,
Sitting in court.
Life can be dirty,
Life can even be painful;
But life is what you make it,
So try to make it beautiful.
Saying Good-bye to Cambridge Again
by Xu Zhimo
Very quietly I take my leave
As quietly as I came here;
Quietly I wave good-bye
To the rosy clouds in the western sky.
The golden willows by the riverside
Are young brides in the setting sun;
Their reflections on the shimmering waves
Always linger in the depth of my heart.
The floating heart growing in the sludge
Sways leisurely under the water;
In the gentle waves of Cambridge
I would be a water plant!
That pool under the shade of elm trees
Holds not water but the rainbow from the sky;
Shattered to pieces among the duck weeds
Is the sediment of a rainbow-like dream?
To seek a dream?
Just to pole a boat upstream
To where the green grass is more verdant;
Or to have the boat fully loaded with starlight
And sing aloud in the
splendor of starlight.
But I cannot sing aloud
Quietness is my farewell music;
Even summer insects keep silence for me
Silent is Cambridge tonight!
Very quietly I take my leave
As quietly as I came here;
Gently I flick my sleeves
Not even a wisp of cloud will I bring away
再別康橋
徐志摩
輕輕的我走了，
正如我輕輕的來(lái)；
我輕輕的招手，
作別西天的云彩。
那河畔的金柳
是夕陽(yáng)中的新娘
波光里的艷影，
在我的心頭蕩漾。
軟泥上的青荇，
油油的在水底招搖；
在康河的柔波里，
我甘心做一條水草
那榆蔭下的一潭，
不是清泉，是天上虹
揉碎在浮藻間，
沉淀著彩虹似的夢(mèng)。
? ?尋夢(mèng)？撐一支長(zhǎng)篙，
向青草更青處漫溯，
滿載一船星輝，
在星輝斑斕里放歌
但我不能放歌，
悄悄是別離的笙簫；
夏蟲(chóng)也為我沉默，
沉默是今晚的康橋！
悄悄的我走了，
正如我悄悄的來(lái)；
我揮一揮衣袖，
不帶走一片云彩。
Once upon a time there was a child ready to be born. So one day he asked God, “They tell me you are sending me to earth tomorrow but how am I going to live there being so small and helpless?”
? ?God replied, “Among the many angels, I chose one for you. She will be waiting for you and will take care of you.”
But the child wasn't sure he really wanted to go. “But tell me, here in Heaven, I don't do anything else but sing and smile, that's enough for me
to be happy.”
“Your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you every day. And you will feel your angel's love and be happy.”
? ? “And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk to me,” the child continued, “if I don't know the language that men talk?”
?? God patted him on the head and said, “Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will teach you how to speak.”
? ? “And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?”
? ? But God had an answer for that question too. “Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray.”
“I've heard that on earth there are bad men, who will protect me?” ??“Your angel will defend you even if it means risking her life!”
? ?“But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore,” the child continued warily.
? ?God smiled on the young one. “Your angel will always talk to you about me and will teach you the way for you to come back to me, even though I will always be next to you.”
At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from earth could already be heard. The child knew he had t
o start on his journey very soon. He asked God one more question, softly, “Oh God, if I am about to leave now, please tell me my angel's name.”
? ?God touched the child on the shoulder and answered, “Your angel's name is not hard to remember. You will simply call her Mommy.”
上帝的完美安排：孩子的守護(hù)天使
從前，有個(gè)孩子馬上就要誕生了。因此有一天他問(wèn)上帝：“聽(tīng)說(shuō)明天你就送我去人間了，但是，我這么弱小和無(wú)助，我在那兒怎么生活呢？”
上帝答道：“在眾多的天使中，我特別為你挑了一位。她會(huì)守候你、無(wú)微不至地照顧你�！�
小孩還是拿不準(zhǔn)自己是否真的想去。“但是在天堂，我除了唱唱笑笑外，什么也不做。這就足以讓我感到幸福了。”
“你的天使每天會(huì)為你唱歌，為你微笑。你會(huì)感受她的愛(ài)，并且因此而幸福。”
“如果我不懂人類的語(yǔ)言，他們對(duì)我說(shuō)話時(shí)，我怎么聽(tīng)得懂呢？”孩子繼續(xù)
