中国的早期教育
Early Education in China
Chinese are very generous while educating children. Not caring about the money, parents of-ten send their children to the best schools or even abroad to study because they believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is.
So parents will spend an unreasonable amount of money oneducation. Even poor couples will buy a computer for their children. However, the best early education is usually very cheap. Children's skills vary. Most parents fail to realize though,what children lack today is self-respect and self-confidence. The problem is that parents are only educating their children on how to take multiple choice tests and study well instead of the most important skills of being confident, happy and clever. Parents can achieve this by teaching practical skills like cooking, sewing and other housework. Cooking will improve many skills children need later in life. Though demanding patience and time, it is an enjoyable experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking,so he works hard and gradually finishes his job successfully.His result, a well-cooked dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self-confidence. Some old machines, such as a broken radio or TV set your child plays with will make him curious and arouse his interest.
He may spend hours looking at them, trying to fix them. These activities are not merely teaching a child to read a book, but rather to think, to use his mind. And that is more important.
保持年轻 Keep Young
Today, as the development of the medical, people can slow down their aging. As for the celebrities, they use the developed technology to keep young, seeing their unchangeable faces in the screen for so many years, the audience also want to imitate the celebrity, they believe that by using the developed technology, they can keep young all the time. While in my opinion, the way to keep young is to hold a young heart, some people look young outside, but in their hearts, they are old enough and refuse to keep pace with the time. While for another group, even they have wrinkles, they are curious about all the things and are willing to change. My grandpa is old, but he knows all the fashionable things, sometimes I have to ask him for the new things. The young heart is the way to keep young forever.
今天，随着医疗的发展，人们能够延缓衰老。对于名人来讲，他们使用高科技来保持年轻，看到他们常年在屏幕上保持不变的容颜，观众也想要模仿名人，他们相信通过使用高科技就能一直保持年轻。然而在我看来，保持年轻的方法就是拥有一颗年轻的心，一些人表面看起来年轻，但是在他们的心里，他们足够的老，并且拒绝去与时俱进。对于另外一些人来讲，虽然他们有皱纹，但是他们对一切都保持好奇，并且愿意去改变。我的爷爷年纪大，但是他对一切时尚的东西都了如指掌，有时候我不得不问他关于新的事物。年轻的心是永葆青春的方法。

We have a good English teacher whose name is Bruce. He comes from Britain and he is about forty years old. He is a tall and thin person, wearing a pair of glasses which makes him more like a gentleman.

His teaching style is very unique, because he is used to encouraging all of us to think by ourselves and study on our own. The relationship between Bruce and us is harmonious. He is so kind and friendly that every student likes him and respects him deeply.
Our teacher is so excellent that we all love him very much.

People like, to cook tomatoes with eggs. You can also just cut tomatoes imo pieces and mix them with sugar. How delicious they are! But remember not to eat too much. In winter, tomatoes are fewer, but you can still buy them on the market.
西红柿看起采像苹果，大小和苹果差不多。成熟的西红柿呈红色或黄色。如果你触摸它们，会感到很柔软很光滑。成熟的西红柿尝起来又酸又甜。夏天，在任何地方都能买到西红柿。
人们喜欢用鸡蛋炒西红柿。你也可以把西红柿切成片儿，用白糖拌在一起，多么美味呀!但是记住不要吃得太多。在冬天，西红柿相对少一些，但在市场上还是可以买到的。
Air is all around us. It's around us as we walk and play. From the time we were born, air was around us on every side. When we sit down, it is around us. We live in air.
All living things need air. Living things can't live without air. We can go without food or water for a few days but we can't live for more than a few minutes without air. We take in air. When we are working or running, we need more air. When we are asleep, we need less air.
We live in air, but we can not see it.
We can only feel it. We can feel it when it is moving. Moving air is called wind. How can you make air move? Here is one way. Hold an open book in your hands in front of you. Close it quickly. What can you feel? What you feel is the air.
空气包围着我们，当我们走路和玩耍的时候，它在我们周围。从我们诞生之日起，空气就在我们周围了。当我们坐下时，它在我们身边。我们生活在空气中。
所有生物都需要空气，没有空气生物就不能生存。没有水和食物，我们可以生存几天，但是没有空气几分钟我们都无法生存。我们吸进空气。当我们工作或跑步时，需要较多空气。当我们睡着时，需要的空气会少一些。
我们生活在空气中，但我们看不见它。
我们只能感觉到。当空气运行时，我们可以感觉到它。运动的空气形成风。你怎样使空气运动呢?有一种办法，手中拿一本展开的书放在面前，快速合上书，你能感觉到什么?你感觉到的就是空气。

吸烟有害Smoking is bad for your healthy
It is said that there are about half of people in China are smoking.Many young boys and girls have the habit of smoking, though they are middle school students.
As we all know, smoking does great harm to human beings. More and more people have come to realize how serious this problem is. But they are never bored with it. Some people think it is a kind of fashion, some think it is of great fun and others think that smoking can refresh themselves.
Smoking causes many illnesses. A lot of people always cough because of smoking. The most serious illness caused by smoking is lung cancer. Meanwhile smoking is a waste of money. Besides, careless smokers may cause dangerous fires.
In order to keep healthy, we should get rid of the bad habit of smoking. Please stop smoking at once.
据说，中国有一半人在吸烟。许多男孩和女孩都有吸烟的习惯，尽管他们还是中学生。
众所周知，吸烟对人身体是有害的。越来越多的人们认识到这个问题的严重性，但他们仍然乐此不疲。一些人认为抽烟是一种时髦，一些人认为抽烟很有趣，还有一些人认为吸烟可以提神。
吸烟能导致很多疾病。由于吸烟，一些人一直在咳嗽。肺癌是吸烟导致的最严重的疾病。同时，吸烟很浪费金钱。除此而外，粗心的烟民还可能引起火灾。
为了保证人们的身体健康，我们应当改掉吸烟的坏习惯。请立即停止吸烟吧。
失学Out of School
Now more and more children in the countryside are out of school. One of the reasons is that their parents haven't much money to afford their school. They have to stay at home to earn money to support their families. What a pity! And another reason is that many parents think it is useless for girls to study and they would not like them to go to school. On the other hand, some children are not interested in their lessons and would not like to go to school.
I think all the children, including girls, should have the right to receive education. We have the duty to lend them a hand when they are in trouble. All the people should pay attention to the education of children who will play a very important part in the future of our country.
现在，越来越多的农村孩子失学了。一个原因是因为他们的父母没有很多的钱供他们上学，他们不得不在家里赚钱养家。太可怜了。另外叶个原因就是很多家长都认为读书对女孩子没用，所以不让她们读书。另一方面，一些孩子对功课不感兴趣，不愿上学。
我认为所有的孩子都有权利接受教育。我们有义务在他们困难时伸出手来帮助他们。人们应当重视孩子的教育问题，因为他们对国家的未来将起到非常重要的作用。
Net Bar网吧
With the development of the Intemet, the net bar plays an important role in people's life. More and more people, especially students, like to go to net bars. They are absorbed in playing video games, making bad friends and having a chat with "Meimei" on the net in the bar. Some students often go on playing late into the night in the net bar. As a result, not only does it do harm to their health but also produces a bad effect on their studies. Now a lot of net bars have been shut down in Beijing. But some students go by bus to the net bars at suburbs to play.
Fortunately, more and more parents and schools have realized it. Recently, more than six thousand students ensured that they would be far away from net bars in Jinzhou city, Liaoning Province. It is quite necessary for the students to get rid of the bad habit.
随着因特网的发展，网吧在人们生活中扮演了重要的角色。越来越多的人，特别是学生，愿意到网吧去，他们沉迷于在网吧玩电子游戏、结交坏朋友以及和荚眉聊天。一些学生常常在网吧玩到深夜，这些会导致学生的健康和学习问题。现在北京市已关闭了一些网吧，但是，一些学生乘车到郊区的网吧去玩。
庆幸的是，越来越多的家长和学校已经意识到这点。最近，辽宁省锦州市六千多名学生保证远离网吧。学生摆脱掉这种坏习惯是非常必要的。
