Sunny　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 Thursday　 October 15, 2009　

This morning when I read a magazine, I was deeply impressed by a series of cartoons with the theme of ‘I love reading’. Among them, the following is the most attractive to me.

In the cartoon, a man is sitting at a table on which there is a plate full of Zongzi, a kind of Chinese traditional food for the Dragon Boat Festival, and a cup. Somehow it seems that he is at a loss to eat them. Believe it or not, he just finds a book on How to unwrap Zongzi and carefully reads it instead of trying himself.

As students, we are learning by reading almost every day. It is true that books can tell us a lot and teach us how to deal with some problems. However, there are also some other ways of gaining knowledge, including the way of learning by doing. Isn’t it better to try unwrapping these Zongzi than to read a book telling you how to do it? As the saying goes, ‘Theory comes from practice’.

October 4　 Sunday　　　　 Sunny

This morning, I was walking along the main street to the city park when I found heavy smokes poured out of a building opposite the main road. Obviously it was on fire. I called the firefighters.

Several minutes later, the firefighters arrived and tried their best to control the fire. With their help, many people managed to get out of the building safe and sound. All of a sudden a foreign woman came in a hurry almost out of breath and shouted. But she couldn’t make herself understood. I went to the woman and asked her what was happening. She told me that her daughter was still trapped in the fire. I told the firefighters about it at once. They immediately ran into the building. Shortly afterwards, they rushed out with the little girl.

The woman was very grateful to me and the firefighters for the help.

Dear David,

I am writing to share the great happiness of taking part in the performance in celebration of the 60th national anniversary.

Dancing is my hobby and therefore, when I heard there would be a get-together to celebrate the 60th National Day on the evening of October 1st, I signed up for the performance. Luckily, I became a member of the dance group.

During the summer vacation, I practiced hard with others regardless of the hot weather. After the new school term began, I carried on with the practice while I was working hard at my studies. And finally, the great day came. In the evening, thousands of people gathered in the splendid Tiananmen Square. With the bright lights shining around, we were dancing to the pleasant music happily and joyfully.l beautiful fireworks in the clear night sky added to my excitement. It was realty an unforgettable experience.

I will enclose some pictures taken that evening.

Wish you all the best!

Yours,

LiHua

As we can see in the picture, a boy is climbing a high mountain, sweating all over and having a tired look. In spite of many large rocks blocking his way, the exhausted boy is still struggling on the steep mountainside, because he knows that there is a rainbow behind the mountain.

What the picture conveys n that although the way to success seems long and difficult, there is still hope like the rainbow in our hearts. So long as we are confident and never give up, we are sure to achieve success. In everyday life, all of us are facing many difficulties and experiencing great hardships just like the boy. If we are determined to get to the top, we’ll see the rainbow!

Dear Harry,

How are things going with you? Today I’m writing to you about the changes that have taken place in our life since last year.

Classes used to begin very early in the morning so we had to go to school without breakfast, which more or less affected our health and studies in class. But now we get up at half past 6 and have enough time to have breakfast.

Now we have an hour for sports each day. We can take whatever exercise or sport we like. After that we feel relaxed and very energetic in class. Apart from that, we also have a variety of out-of-class activities such as going mountain climbing, or holding an art festival in which gifted students sing and dance or play a drama. Furthermore, as unnecessary burden is reduced, we have less homework to do in the evening, so as a result, we have time to do whatever we are interested in, such as surfing the Internet for useful information, playing some computer games for relaxation. No longer do we have to stay up late, and we can go to bed at 11.

In my opinion, the changes benefit us a lot and we are all happy about them/ the changes.

Oh, it’s time for bed, so I have to stop here. Looking forward to hearing from you.

[参考范文]

With the development of society，more and more attention has been paid to appropriate manners. However, there are still some inappropriate behaviors. For example, some bicyclists run the red traffic lights. Some people throw litter in public places. In the cinema, it’s not unusual to hear some people talking loudly on cell phones in front of others .Very often, we can see scrabbles in scenic spots.

I’m strongly against talking loudly in the cinema, for this behavior shows disrespect to others. Besides, it disturbs the audience around and makes others feel very annoyed. Therefore, some measures should be taken to prevent such behavior in public places.

How to Get Prepared for the College Entrance Exams

We are going to attend the College Entrance Exams in less than one your. However, many students still don’t know how to coordinate their study, rest and physical exercise when preparing for the Exams. They usually devote too much time to their study, which results in poor health and low efficiency of learning.

As the proverb goes, early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise. We’d better leave ourselves enough time to sleep since it enables us to learn our lessons more efficiently. What’s more, a strong and healthy body is the base for our further study and our future work and creative activities.

Therefore, as we are preparing for the Exams, don’t forget that rest, exercise and study are equally important.
