Chinese New Year
Chinese New Year is the most important festival for Chinese people all over the world. It is also called the Spring Festival or the Lunar New Year. The exact date of the Spring Festival on the Western calendar changes from year to year. However, Chinese New Year takes place between January 1 and February 19.
On the Chinese calendar every year has an animal's name. These animals are the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, ram, monkey, rooster, dog and pig. A Chinese legend says that these twelve animals had a race. The first year was named after the rat, the winner. The other eleven years were named according to the order in which the animals arrived in the race. The clever rat jumped onto the ox's back, and then at the end jumped over the ox's head to arrive first!
The Chinese believe that a person born in a particular year has some of the characteristics of that animal.

To
Pull
up
the
Seedlings
to
Help
Them
Grow
Once
upon
a
time,
an
old
farmer
planted
a
plot
of
rice.
Everyday
he
went
to
the
field
to
watch
the
seedlings
grow.
He
saw
the
young
shoots
break
through
the
soil
and
grow
taller
each
day.
But
still,
he
thought
they
were
growing
too
slowly.
He
got
impatient
with
the
young
plants.
"How
could
the
plants
grow
faster?"
He
tossed
in
bed
ring
the
night
and
could
not
sleep.
Suddenly
he
hit
upon
an
idea.
He
had
an
idea
not
wait
for
daybreak.
He
jumped
out
of
the
bed
and
dashed
to
the
field.
By
the
moonlight,
he
began
working
on
the
rice
seedlings.
One
by
one,
he
pulled
up
the
young
plants
by
half
an
inch.
When
he
finished
pulling,
it
was
already
morning.
Straightening
his
back,
he
said
to
himself,
"What
a
wonderful
idea!
Look,
how
much
taller
the
plants
have
grown
one
night!"
With
great
satisfaction,
he
went
back
home.
He
told
his
son
what
he
had
done
in
a
triumphant
tone.
His
son
was
shocked.
Now
the
sun
had
risen.
The
young
man
was
heart-broken
to
see
all
the
pulled-up
young
plants
dying.

Zhu
Zhang"
to
describe
the
behavior
of
those
who
are
too
eager
to
get
something
done
only
to
make
it
worse.
The
idiom
is
a

"Haste

------to

enthusiasm.
拨苗助长
从前,有个农夫,种了稻苗后,便希望能早早收成。每天他到稻田时,发觉那些稻

The City Mouse and the Country Mouse
Once there were two mice. They were friends. One mouse lived in the country; the other mouse lived in the city. After many years the Country mouse saw the City mouse; he said, "Do come and see me at my house in the country." So the City mouse went. The City mouse said, "This food is not good, and your house is not good. Why do you live in a hole in the field? You should come and live in the city. You would live in a nice house made of stone. You would have nice food to eat. You must come and see me at my house in the city."
The Country mouse went to the house of the City mouse. It was a very good house. Nice food was set ready for them to eat. But just as they began to eat they heard a great noise. The City mouse cried, " Run! Run! The cat is coming!" They ran away quickly and hid.
After some time they came out. When they came out, the Country mouse said, "I do not like living in the city. I like living in my hole in the field. For it is nicer to be poor and happy, than to be rich and afraid."

城里老鼠和乡下老鼠
从前,有两只老鼠,它们是好朋友。一只老鼠居住在乡村,另一只住在城里。很多年以后,乡下老鼠碰到城里老鼠,它说:“你一定要来我乡下的家看看。”于是,城里老鼠就去了。乡下老鼠领着它到了一块田地上它自己的家里。它把所有最精美食物都找出来给城里老鼠。城里老鼠说:“这东西不好吃,你的家也不好,你为什么住在田野的地洞里呢?你应该搬到城里去住,你能住上用石头造的漂亮房子,还会吃上美味佳肴,你应该到我城里的家看看。”
乡下老鼠就到城里老鼠的家去。房子十分漂亮,好吃的东西也为他们摆好了。可是正当他们要开始吃的时候,听见很大的一阵响声,城里的老鼠叫喊起来:“快跑!快跑!猫来了!”他们飞快地跑开躲藏起来。
过了一会儿,他们出来了。当他们出来时,乡下老鼠说:“我不喜欢住在城里,我喜欢住在田野我的洞里。因为这样虽然贫穷但是快乐自在,比起虽然富有却要过着提心吊胆的生活来说,要好些 . 报23—D
The English language is a result of the island o Britain over many hundreds of years .The invaders lived along the northern coast of Europe .
The first invasions were by a people called Angles about one thousand five hundred years ago . The Angles were a German tribe who crossed the English Channel.
Later two more groups crossed to Britain. They were the Saxons and the Jutes.
Through the years, the Saxons, Angles and Jutes mixed their different languages. Tehe result is what is called Anglo-Saxon or Old English.
The next great invasion of Britain came from the far north beginning about one thousand one hundred years ago. Fierce people called Vikings raided the coast areas of Britain.Many english words used today come from these ancient Vikings.
Words like “Sky,” “leg” “skull” “egg” “crawl” “lift”and “take” are from the old languages of the far northern countries.
The next invasion of Britain took place more than nine hundred years ago, in ten sixty-six .History experts call this invasion the Norman Conpuest. William the Comqueror led it. The Normans were a French-speaking people from Normandy in the north of france. They became the new rulers of Britain. These new rulers spoke only French for several hundred years. It was the most important language in the world at that time. Ti was the language of ecated people . But the common people of Britain still spoke Old English.
Old English took many words from the Norman Frech. Some of these include “damage” “prison”and “marrige”.The french language used by the Norman rulers greatly changed the way English was spoken by eight hundred years ago. Enlish became what language experts call Middle English Middle English.Middle English sounds like modern English. But it is very diffcult to understand now .The history of the English language continues as Middle English becomes Modern English, which is spoken today. 这绝对是短文……
译文:
英语是不列颠数百年历史的产物。入侵不列颠的人原本居住在欧洲北海岸。
最初的侵略者是盎格鲁人。他们在约1500年前入侵不列颠。盎格鲁人是一个穿越了英吉利海峡的部族。
后来,又有两个部族跨海而来。这两个部族是撒克逊和朱特人。
这些年来。撒克逊人、盎格鲁人、朱特人通过日常交流,将这几种不同的语言混合了起来。混合的产物就是被称作盎格鲁-撒克逊,或者古英语的语言。
下一次对于不列颠的大型入侵是在约1100年前,来自遥远的北部。凶残的维京人袭击了不列颠的沿海地域。许多现代英语的词汇都是来自古维京语。
“Sky,” “leg” “skull” “egg” “crawl” “lift”以及“take”等词汇来自北欧的其他国家。
再下一次对不列颠的侵略,发生在约900年前,在16至17世纪。这次侵略被历史学家命名为the Norman Conquest(诺曼征服)。
威廉领导了这次侵略。诺曼人从法国北部的诺曼底来到不列颠,他们是一个讲法语的民族。他们成为了不列颠的新领袖。
这些新的领导者们,在过去的几百年里都只讲法语——在那时,这是全世界最重要的一门语言,是被受教育者广泛运用的语言。但,在不列颠的平民百姓们仍然在使用古英语。
于是古英语里融合进了法语里的许多词汇,比如“damage” “prison”和 “marrige”。于是,诺曼统治者们所运用的语言——法语,在800年前极大地改变了英语。
英语成为了语言专家们所谓的 Middle English(中古英语)。这语言听起来很像现代英语,但如今已很难理解了。英语的历史持续到Middle English(中古英语)变成现代英语的今天。如今英语在世界范围内被广泛使用。

《别让蜡烛熄灭》
man had a little daughter—an only and much-loved child. He lived for her—she was his life. So when she became ill, he became like a man possessed, moving heaven and earth to bring about her restoration to health。
一个男人有一个很小的女儿,那是他唯一的孩子,他深深地爱着她,为她而活,她就是他的生命。所以,当女儿生病时,他像疯了一般竭尽全力想让她恢复健康。
His best efforts, however, proved unavailing and the child died. The father became a bitter recluse, shutting himself away from his many friends and refusing every activity that might restore his poise and bring him back to his normal self. But one night he had a dream。
然而,他所有的努力都无济于事,女儿还是死了。父亲变得痛苦遁世,避开了许多朋友,拒绝参加一切能使他恢复平静,回到自我的活动。但有一天夜里,他做了一个梦。
He was in heaven, witnessing a grand pageant of all the little child angels. They were marching in a line passing by the Great White Throne. Every white-robed angelic child carried a candle. He noticed that one child's candle was not lighted. Then he saw that the child with the dark candle was his own little girl. Rushing to her, he seized her in his arms, caressed her tenderly, and then asked, "How is it, darling, that your candle alone is unlighted?" "Daddy, they often relight it, but your tears always put it out."
他到了天堂,看到所有的小天使都身穿白色天使衣,手里拿着一根蜡烛。他注意到有一个小天使的蜡烛没有点亮。随后,他看到那个拿着没有点亮的蜡烛的小天使是自己的女儿。他奔过去,一把将女儿抱在怀里,温柔地抱着她,然后问道:“宝贝儿,为什么只有你的蜡烛没有点亮呢?”“爸爸,他们经常重新点亮蜡烛,可是你的眼泪总是把它熄灭。”
Just then he awoke from his dream. The lesson was crystal clear, and its effects were immediate. From that hour on he was not a recluse, but mingled freely and cheerfully with his former friends and associates. No longer would his darling's candle be extinguished by his useless tears。
就在这时,他从梦中醒来。梦给他上的一课很明显,而且立竿见影。从那个时候起,他不再消极遁世,而是自由自在,兴高采烈的回到从前的朋友和同事们中间。宝贝女儿的蜡烛再也没有被他无用的眼泪熄灭过。
