As new students at an university in Boston，many of us were unfamiliar with the campus but consequently late for class. One professor，however，was particular intolerant of being late，making clear that no excuse would be acceptable. So when a girl student came to his class one morning later，we expected the worst results. Then the professor demands the reason for her coming late.“I was being waiting online to buy your new book，”she replied very nervously. While looked at the rest of the class，the professor asked，“Well，why was not the rest of you late？”
In a different evening of November two years ago, we had a big party to celebrate Thanksgiving Day in the Concert Hall in our school. Present at the party was all the students and teachers, apart from some of the school leaders. Working together on stage, the teachers and students gave a lot of wonderfully American performances. For an example, they cooperated with each other perform witty skits（滑稽短剧）as well as singing and dancing. To our surprises, they also played magic tricks. The performances were very amazing that we all had a good time that evening.
Therefore, happy time really flies. The moment finally comes when the party came to an end. We are looking forward to get together to perform again.
When we were played basketball yesterday, a quarrel about a ball happens between Li Lei and Li Ming. Thank to the classmates there, the quarrel stopped after it developed into a fight.
We had our P. E. lesson in the fourth period on yesterday morning. The teacher asked us to play basketball, so we ten students divided us into two teams. Li Lei and Li Ming were on same team. As Li Ming didn’t catch the ball that Li Lei passed on to him, Li Lei began to get annoying and made some cruel word. And then they began to quarrel with each other.
In my opinion, we shouldn’t quarrel with each other at all. We are friends and we should cherish our friendship so that we can live happy.
My name is Ann. I've been in China in a few years. With the help of Li Hua, a good friend of mine, I've been used to live in China. Li Hua, like other girls, are beautiful and lively. We became friends after we meet each other a few years ago. Although her English isn't easy to understand, but we enjoy chatting and we usually talk a lot about our favorite books. We're all surprised that Chinese culture and American culture are so differently. Now we are planning nice party for next Sunday. There, I will introduce Li Hua to my friends, one of who has been to China several time.
Last Sunday, I go to the Beijing Olympic Forest Park with my friend Chris. As soon as we got there, we were so attracting by the breathtaking scenery that we couldn’t help take many photos to record the beautiful moments. As we walked on, we noticed a kite hanging up on a branch, but its owner, little boy, was too short to get it down. The boy looked worried but we decided to help him. Unlucky, the kite was also beyond their reach. Then we looked around and found a slick, with that we got the kite down. We gave the kite away back to the boy. He was very delightful and thanked us for what we did.
This morning, I was jogging in the park where I caught sight of a wallet on a bench. Clear, someone had left it there by an accident. I picked it up and checked the contents. Inside them, I found some money and a card with a phone number. Believing that the owner would be worrying, I immediately tried the number. A man answers it in an anxious voice. Heard that I had his wallet, he sighed with relief and told me he would return right away. Ten minute later, the man arrived. After confirming (确认) he was the owner, I handed the wallet back him. With his thumb up, he expressed his gratitude to me repeatedly. Seeing the smile in his face, I felt happy that I was able to help.
I, together with my father, went to Zhangjiajie this summer vacation, where they paid a visit to Zhangjiajie National Forest Park. In 1982, it listed as the first national forest park of China, that covers an area of 48. 1 square kilometers. Zhangjiajie, lie in the northwest of Hunan Province, is one of the most important tourism city. What’s more, it was recognized for China’s excellent tourism city in 2000. We were deep impressed by the natural scenery there. Therefore, we had kept on taking photos. In my opinion, a journey was worthwhile, because we were tired.
Yesterday, I saw the old lady fall down when I went to school. I was going to help him up. At that moment, a passer-by stop me, saying I might be misunderstood. Hearing from his words, I began to slow down my steps. However, another student, that saw everything, went quick up to help. The old lady said nothing but lots of thank to the boy. I felt badly and ashamed. Help others is forever a virtue of China. We can’t let it disappear. I will try my best reach out my hand next time.
In our life, everyone is surely to have difficulties. It is the same with me. I still remember how worried I am about my English learning three years ago. I had difficulty follow my teacher in the English class. With my classmates often laughing at me because of my poor English, I decided to do anything. Firstly, I took a part in the English Corner that I met many friends. They shared their methods of learning English with me. Beside, I also found it useful keep English diaries. What’s more, I talked with friends on the Internet and exchanged emails with English. As a result, I made great progresses in learning English.
Planning is good as it decides in detail how we do that we want to do. Besides, a plan can bear no fruit without being actually carried out. About a month ago, I sign up for an English speech contest. I spent hours work out a schedule. After that, I set out to read wide, wrote the draft(草稿) of my speech and practiced my pronunciation. In addition to, I tried my best to improve my public speech skills. As result, I won first prize in the contest. I knew my success came from good planning or hard work. From then on, I attach more importances to not only planning what I am going to doing but also carrying out the plan firmly.
