I was so busy in the previous winter holiday for I am going to take the university entrance exam in July this year. Everyday, I buried myself in studying. I had to review each required subject and do lots of exercises. Besides, because I did bad in mathematics and physics, I had to do much more exercises than other courses, which made me discouraged. I spent more than ten hours a day in studying. When I was tired, I watched TV or listened to music for a little while. But It was a big pity that I couldn't go to the see cinema. In addition, I had to refuse all the invitations of friends and relatives. I only called them or sent messages in the New Year’s Eve. I desperately hoped that there is no exam but I know it’s impossible. The only thing I can do is to study hard to get good scores and can be admitted to Tsinghua University.
My name is Li Hua. I am from a worker's family. There are six people in my family. They are my grandfather, my grandmother, my father, my mother, my sister and I.
Every member in my family works for his or her own trade①. My grandfather and grandmother are peasants. They do farm work every day in my hometown. My father is a senior engineer. He is now working in Africa, helping to build a power station. My mother is a teacher. She teaches English in a middle school. My sister, five years older than I, is a doctor in the People's Hospital of our county. She loves her work and does it well. I am a middle school student. And I am going to take this year's college entrance examination. I wish that I could be enrolled② by a famous university.
That is my family. All the members in my family live in harmony③. We love each other devotedly.
Nowadays, many families have a dog or a cat as a pet. Some people think that pets are good and helpful companies. Some of them even go so far as saying that animals are as good as humans, and their rights should be respected .Senior citizens are especially fond of keeping pet because they are always feeling lonely at home and they see the cats or dogs as their partner.
But some other people do not like pets. They say that animals are noisy, dirty and dangerous. They think laws should be made to forbid people from keeping pets in cities and towns.
In my opinion, pets are loyal friends that will never betray us. Staying with pets, we shall enjoy happiness and feel relaxed. Most important of all, keeping pets helps people to reduce loneliness and forget their unpleasant things for the time being.
Once I studied in middle school, I met a very nice English teacher. Her name was Clara. Although I have left her for a long time, I still remember her very well. It was her who gave me the enthusiasm to learn English, and it was also her who pulled me up when I stumbled.
The first time I saw her, I was very surprised, because she was very young and beautiful. She was also humorous. She always made her classes lively and interesting. As she always did the activities with us, she was not only our teacher, but also our best partner.
What’s more, she was very patient and responsible. Every time I was in trouble, she always offered me a hand. She was willing to communicate with me. I didn't know how to appreciate her. Without her, my English can't be so good.
In the east of China,there is a small city---Haimen.I was born there.Today,I am telling you about my hometown.
Haimen is not far from Shanghai.It's at the mouth of the Changjiang River.Haimen is a modern city.There are lots of high buildings in it.Most of us live in flats.We like to live in flats because we can be close to our friends.In the center of Haimen,there are many shops.You can buy some nice things here.Things in most shops aren't expensive.You can pay a little money and they are yours.
My hometown is a beautiful city.On each of the roads,there are some big trees and nice flowers.The roads are also very clean.They make people happy and comfortable.The seasons here are very nice.I like autumn best.It's neither hot nor cold.A poem says “Flyer of summer come to my window to sing,then fly away.And yellow leaves of autumn,which have no songs,just fall there with a sign.” It's very cool.
I love Haimen.It's a nice place to live.Welcome to my hometown.
Though my daily life is extremely monotonous, I try hard to adapt myself to it. Why? Because I intend to be a good student. I wish to render service to my country.I get up at six o’clock every day. After I wash my face and brush my teeth, I begin to review my lessons. I go to school at seven o’clock.After school is over, I return home. We usually have supper at seven o’clock.Then I begin to do my homework. I want to finish it before I go to bed.
I have rested for a week.I began to feel bored.So I went out with my friends.They are my best friends in the middle school.We didn't go to someplace special.We just saw the other.We had lunch together.While we were having lunch, we were still talking about the new schooland new friends. A year later,we have grown riper.And we learned much more things and got new life.We haven't enough time to play,to waste and to lose the way. We only have two years.Two years to go,we will get the real life which belongs to us.
Today, I still went to my mother’s office. My mother was very busy, so was my father. They always live in Beijing. They must get up early. Because they will manage the factory. So I know they are very laborious. So I should save my money. Also I should help them. Although I can’t do something useful, but I think I should share the work with them. I am one of my family member. In the future, I will take a job and work. It’ time for me to begin to learn how to work
