a nice cool shower first thing in the morning wakes me up completely and leaves me refreshed. before taking the shower, i am usually so sleepy that i can hardly open my eyes.

as soon as i splash cold water over my face and body, i wake up with a pleasurable sensation. then, as i stand there under the gushing showerhead, feeling the coolness of water over my body and listening to the sound of water gurgling down the drain, i feel totally refreshed and relaxed. i enjoy taking morning showers. it is the best way i know to get the day off to a good start. (2)she was taking a morning shower. the warm spray from the showerhead danced on her hair and foamed down her body. steam came up and soon the bathroom was foggy. she closed her eyes, feeling the foams covering her body with thousand of kisses. in the sunbeams that streamed in through the only window, water drops glittered like morning dews. a cool wind rushed in. she looked out the window. some leaves were falling. "it must be autumn!" she murmured to herself. she stood motionless. there was no sound except that of water gurgling down the drain. (3)every morning, as soon as the alarm clock wakes me up, i get out of bed and go into the bathroom, sleepy-eyed. after taking off my clothes, i rub my body to stimulate circulation. then i turn the faucet on. a hissing avalanche of water foams down my body in cold sheets.

i close my eyes, not thinking about anything, so that i can better enjoy the cool sensation and pleasurable prickliness of the cold spray. i stay this way for about two minutes. when i finish, i dry myself with a towel, put on my clothes and step out of the bathroom refreshed and relaxed.

SinceI was a little baby, my parents read simple stories for me. They bought me manycartoon books with stories. They were my bedtime stories. Among all theinteresting stories, I like fairy tales most, because they are often beautifullove stories between prince and princes or Cinderella. They are so moved andfull of love. Besides, in fairy tales, no matter how much they suffer, theywill always live a happy life in the end. The happy endings bring hope andsatisfaction to people, making us hopeful to our own lives. Every time I readfairy tales, I put myself into the story, imagining I am one of them. That’swonderful.

People always say the one who likes smiling will never lack of luck. Indeed, the smiling people are friendly and kind, they like to give hands to other people and people like to make friends with them, so when the smiling people are in trouble, people around them will take no hesitation to help them. I have a friend who always has smile in his face, he seems to be never angry with others. All the guys like to talk to him and they are willing to help him. Keeping the smiling face not only means the person has the good personality, but also means the person has the positive attitudes towards life.

人们总是说爱笑的人运气不会差。确实，微笑的`人是友好并且善良的，他们喜欢帮助别人，人们也喜欢和他们交朋友，所以当微笑的人有困难的时候，在身边的人会毫不犹豫地帮助他们。我有一个朋友，脸上总是挂着笑容，他似乎从来不会和别人生气。所有的人都喜欢和他交流，并且交朋友。保持笑脸不仅意味着一个人有好的性格，也意味着这个人对生活有着乐观向上的态度。

Whenever I recall my boy hood days,I often have a mixed feeling of regret and happiness.In fact,there is more regret than happiness.For if there were any past happy moments,they are gone and can not be recovered.

I am the only boy of my parents's three children.As boys are prized more than girls in a Chinese family,I received more care than my sisters in my boyhood days,My parents were ready to buy me anything that I wanted.But also I was more strictly educated as boys are regarded as the pillar of a family.They sent me to the best school in town. The happiest moments which are still vivid to me are those past evenings.After supper,my father used to tell us stories of brave and honest boys.My father always ended his story-telling by patting on my shoulders and said,"My son,I hope you will grow up like the hero in the story."My mother and my sisters never failed to echo the expectations with applause as if I were already a hero.

Now I am already a young man.I regret that their hope is still a dream.However,there is no use regretting.I will make good use of the present and try my best to live up to their expectation.

What Can We Do for the Environment

our environment is becoming worse and worse，what can we do for the environment?I think each of us can do a little bit to help with this problem。

The first thing we can do is to use cloth bags instead of plastic bags when we go shopping. It helps to protect the environment. The second thing we can do is to reuse the old textbooks as possible as we can. We should also never forget to turn off the lights when we leave the classrooms in order to save energy. What"s more，it would be better if we walk or ride a bike to school. We should try our best to reduce pollution and waste。

In fact，even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. I believe we can make the world a better place to live in。

It was the second day of our summer holiday. I felt good. I felt I am free. I had a lot of time to do things I like. My parents are in Zhongshan. So I live alone but I don’t feel lonely. But I didn’t do something special. I stayed at home and watched TV. Oh! I wrote an Englishdaily composition. It was my homework. Today, I have slept for 14 hours.I thought I was very tired. It was time for dinner. I must go! I am very hungry. 这是我们其次天的暑假。我感觉很好。我觉得我很自由。我有许多时间做我喜爱。我的`父母都在中山。所以，我独自生活，但我并不感到孤独。但是，我没有做什么特殊。我住在家里看电视。噢!我写了英语日记组成。这是我的功课。今日，我睡了14 小时.我以为我很疲乏。现在是吃晚饭。我必需去!我特别饿。

My father used to be a heavy somker.He smoked more than 20 cigarets each day;therefore,he was the polluter wherever he went.My mother and I tried to persuade him to give it up.He gave it up many times but each time only for a few days or only for a few hours.

Once he declared that he would stop smoking right away under the pressure of my mother,and he threw his cigarets into the dustbin.The effect of his declaration lasted only for two days.Then I found him smoking again when he thought that he was alone and no one saw him.On the fifth day of his declaration,he smoked openly.

Last winter he got pneumonia.When he was well again,the doctor ordered him to give up smoking.To our delight,this time he really got rid of the habit.It seems that the doctor's order is more effective than mother's scolding,my suggestion and his own declaration.

As we all know, smiling is an expression showing pleasure, sociability and happiness. There are many goodpoints of smiling. On the one hand, smiling can make us happy, andplease others at the same time. If you always smile at life, life will smile atyou in return. On the other hand, you will be much more positivethan before. You can find a different world if you often smile. What's more, smiling is a means of communication and can help you have more friends.

I was smiling yesterday,I am smiling today and I will smile tomorrow.

(Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes yoursmile can be the source of your joy.)

(You'll find that life is still worthwhile, if you just smile.)

At present only a few students do some reading after class. Here are several reasons. First of all, quite a lot of students are burdened with (背负着)too much homework. Still others haven’t formed a habit of reading. They would rather spend their spare time on TV or on the Internet.

However, reading has many benefits. Through reading we can learn more about the world. Besides, it can help us think better. Last but not least, reading can make our life more colourful.

Here are my suggestions. For one thing, teachers are supposed to limit the amount of our homework so that we can have more time to read. For another, it’s a good idea to form reading clubs and learn from each other.

It’s important to do something meaningful in summer holiday.

I can do many things to help others as well as to improve myself. Maybe I can work as a volunteer to help more people. For example I can go to see old people in old people’s home. It will be a wonderful thing if I talk with them and bring laugher to them. Of course, I will meet many new people and make friends with them during my meaningful holidays. Besides, I can read some books to open my mind and learn some new things at the same time. All the good and meaningful things I’ve done in the holiday can make me a better person.

Make a good plan for your summer holiday and do something meaningful.

My best subject

English is one of my best subjects and I started learning English when I was ten years old. But at the very beginning, listening seemed a little difficult for me. So I have been doing a lot of listening practice, such as listening to tapes, watching English TV programs. And I found it really helped a lot. In fact, there are some more helpful ways to learn English well. For example, I enjoy singing English songs and I want to join an English club or find a pen pal from English-speaking countries. I believe that nothing is impossible if you put your heart into it。

Less Pressure, Better Life

Hello, boys and girls!

Pressure is a serious problem in today’s world. Students in our class are under too much pressure. Some students can’t get on well with their classmates, while others may worry about their exams.

I’m always under pressure, too. My parents want me to be the top student in class. So they send me to all kinds of after-classes at weekends. Last Monday evening, I had a talk with my mother. I told her I was not lazy. I really felt tired. I needed time to relax. My mother agreed with me at last. So I think a conversation with parents is necessary to solve the problem.

Speaking of reading, many people are excited because reading brings them both knowledge and entertainment. By reading, we can learn lots of information and know our history. But for some people, reading is not their priority. They will choose to watch movies to have fun. However, I think people can benefit a lot by reading.

First of all, reading can let us know what have happened in history. Since history is recorded in books, if we read books, then we can not only know what have happened in history but also we can better understand the great figures of the age.

Secondly, reading can enrich our knowledge. By reading, we can know different kinds of things, how things happen and how to avoid bad things from happening. Books record a wide range of things about life. Through reading, we can know various aspects of life.

Students in our school are free to choose some special courses according to their interest. Students who want to have strong bodies as well as develop their teamwork spirit can choose to attend the football course because this course encourages students to work together. Those who look for a chance to practice their oral English can attend the English drama course. What’s more, it will provide them chances to act out some interesting plays. Besides, for those who want to know more about science and increase their interest, we will also have a model making course.

In my opinion, I strongly suggest that we should have an International course as well. It is a good opportunity for us to broaden our horizons and I think it is a good chance to improve our foreign language skills.

Everyone tries to achieve success in his/her career. But some finally attain their aims while others fail. Why? Some continue their cause to the end through long period of hard struggles, but others are easily disappointed and stop halfway.

Strong will, perseverance and diligence are the three essentials of success. A man of strong will and perseverance always has an inflexible spirit. He sticks to his cause no matter how tough it might be. Life is short and we have too much to do. Without diligence no one can achieve anything. I believe that where there is a will there is a way, and that success belongs to those who can make constant efforts.

Don't be afraid of life. Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact.

I like reading books when I have time. I think it's a good way to relax and spend my free time. When I was a kid, my mother often read books for me before I went to bed.

When I read, I always lose myself in the book and forget all my worries. I like reading all kinds of books, story-books, novels and so on. My farourite book is "Harry Porter".当我有时间时，我喜欢读书。

我认为读书时很好的放松和度过业余时间的好方法。当我还是个孩子时，我母亲在我睡觉前经常给我读。

当我读书时，我总沉浸在书中，忘记了我的烦恼。我喜欢读各种各样的书，故事书，小说等等。

I think spring is the best season ever!

It’s our duty to protect the environment around us.

When we go to school, we should ride a bike or take a bus. When we go out for activities, we shouldn’t step on the grass. We can’t draw every where. When we go shopping, we’d better use a cloth bag. At home we can save water and electricity. When we leave a room, we should turn off the lights. At school we can collect waste paper and recycle things, such as bottles, cans and plastic bags. We shouldn’t listen to pop music or spit in public.

Let’s do something to protect our environment.

Different people have different hobbies.For example,someone likes reading,someone likes swimming and someone likes collecting and so on.

I used to read books and draw pictures because by reading books I could learn many funny things.But now I don't like it.I can only learn from books.I couldn't get knowledge from others.I need a change.Traveling is my favorite hobby now.But I can't go traveling a lot.I can visit many different places of interest by traveling.I can learn a lot about people,places and history.It's very interesting.What is your hobby?Let's share each other!

I have many good friends.They all have their hobbies.Ann studies very hard.So her hobby is book reading.Tony loves labour,and his hobby is gardening.He usually plants flowers and trees in his yard.Judy is a quiet girl.She likes knitting.She always knits some sweaters for her dolls.We have different hobbies,but we are good friends.

I love traveling.I have great fun in traveling.

I’d like to share some experience in studying. If you want to be a good student, you must do three things.First, you must preview lessons for tomorrow in order to follow the teacher easily. Find out the points you don’t understand in advance. Second, you must listen to the teacher very carefully in class. This is very important because the teacher will explain the problems very clearly. Third, you must finish your homework on time. After you do homework, you will know what you have learned more clearly. Hopefully you can enjoy your school life and have a bright future.

As time goes by, man is making the earth sick. People cut down too many trees and leave rubbish everywhere. Factories let out their waste without doing anying to it . This has cause some serious problems. Such as the land is sandy, the river is dirty, the air is less clean, even the temperature of the earth is rising. What should we do to save the earth ? My suggestion is that we should plant more trees, put rubbish into dusbins and stop factories pouring waste directly into the air or rivers. In all, we have only one earth, we should do our best to protect it, or we will regret.

Nowadays more and more middle school students like pop songs.

A few of them like quiet music because they think quiet music makes them feel comfortable. Many of the students like musicians who can write their own lyrics. Why? They think it’s cool to express their own feelings. Most of the students like music that they can dance to. They think the music is full of energy. When they are tired or bored, they can dance to the music.

All large cities around the world have many post offices located throughout the city，and even the smallest village has at least one postal station. You may go to a post office to mail a letter.

However，there are mail boxes located on every second or third corner in all cities and towns. Any letter or small package having sufficient postage may be dropped in any of these mail boxes.

If a person wishes a letter to be delivered more quickly to the address，he may buy a special delivery stamp and delivery is made directly by the messenger instead of by the regular carrier.

Li Xiaohu spent too much time playing computer games and he fell behind others. As a close friend of his, I must do something to help him.

First, I must tell him that playing computer games too much is bad for his health, especially for his eyes. So he must give it up. I can play more sports with him after school. Maybe he will become more interested in sports than computer games.

And then I"ll ask him to concentrate more on his study. Of course, I will try my best to help him with all his subjects. I think I can do it in many fun ways and let him find much fun in studying.

At the same time, I"ll ask both his parents and our teachers to help him, too. If I try these, I"m sure he will make great progress soon.

When you were born, you need to face the ups and downs in our life. For example, you need to learn to speak, learn to walk, learn to write, learn to read, and so on. Whenever you learn a new thing, you will be always full of joy. But the hardness only you know. Perhaps, you have thought about giving up, but in the end you insist on. In this world, there is no difficult, only those who do not adhere to. As long as you can hold on, thats not a thing. Perseverance prevails! This is the eternal law! Come on.

人生下来，就得面对人生中的起起落落。比如，学着说话，学着走路，学着写字，学会看书等等。每当你学会一件事时，你总是满心欢喜。但是，这其中的.困难只有你自己知道。也许，这你曾想过放弃，但最后还是坚持下来了。在这个世界上，没有什么难事，只有不肯坚持的人。只要能坚持下来，那都不是事。坚持就是胜利!这是千古不变的定律!加油!

I saw an interesting scene from a TV show. A girl and a boy were forced to have the blind date, and they know nothing before they came to the dinner table. They felt embarrassed and after introducing each other, the girl began to speak English with the boy. The parents did not know what they were talking about, but they felt happy to see them communicating. Actually, the boy and the girl said they didn’t want this date and decided to tell their parents the truth, and they felt relieved. Mastering another language provides people more ways to communicate. Sometimes we can use it in the fun way.

我在电视节目上看到有趣的`一幕。一个女孩和一个男孩被迫相亲，在他们来到餐桌前根本毫不知情。他们觉得很尴尬，互相介绍后，女孩开始和男孩说英文。父母不知道他们在说什么，但是很开心他们在聊天。其实，他们两个是在说不期待这样的约会，决定把真相告诉父母，他们觉得松了一口气。掌握另一种语言给人们提供了更多的交流方式。有时候我们可以进行有趣的交流。

since i was an elementary school student, i have been doing a great deal of reading and writing. i like philosophy, politics, and science as well as fairy tales. i study history carefully, especially the history about our own people and country.
