（一） 在美国过圣诞节(Christmas in America)
Christmas is the most important festival in the western world. It falls on December 25th. When my mother and I stayed in America, we were invited by one of my mother's friends to have Christmas with an American family. We bought some presents for our American friends on our way to their house.
They had prepared different kinds of gifts for their family and guests when we got to their house, such as Christmas candles, cakes, cards, little toys, biscuits and so on. A Christmas tree was placed in the comer of the brilliant hall. How beautiful it was! We were impressed by these. We had a big meal. After dinner, they told us some interesting stories about Christmas. We learned that Christmas had something to do with God. We went to bed at midnight. Though we knew the Santa Claus was not true, we were still waiting for the Santa Claus with white beard to bring us presents.And we received many beautiful presents the next morning.
This Christmas was really unforgettable. Not only did I have a good time, but also I knew something about foreign culture.
12月25日的圣诞节是西方国家最重要的节日。我和妈妈在美国的时候，曾应妈妈的一位朋友邀请，去一个美国家庭过圣诞节。在去他家的途中，我们为美国朋友买了一些礼物。
我们到时，他们已为家人及客人们准备了各种各样的礼物，有圣诞蜡烛、蛋糕、卡片、小玩具和饼干等。圣诞树放在灯火通明的客厅的一角，实在是太荚了。这一切给我们留下了深刻的印象。我们吃了一顿大餐。饭后，他们给我们讲了一些圣诞节的故事，我们知道了圣诞节与上帝有关。我们午夜时分才上床睡觉。尽管我们知道圣诞老人不是真的，但还是等待着白胡子的圣诞老人为我们送来礼物。第二天早晨我们收到了许多漂亮的礼物。
这个圣诞节实在太令人难以忘怀了。我不仅过得很愉快，还了解了外国文化。
（二）我的英语老师 Our English Teacher
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.
He is strict with us. He often makes full preparations for his class and corrects our homework carefully. 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.
我们有一个很好的英语老师，他的名字叫Bmce。他来自英国，大约40岁。他是一个又高又瘦的人，戴着一副眼镜，这使他显得更有绅士风度。
他总是严格要求我们。他经常认真备课，认真为我们批改作业。他的教学风格很是与众不同，这是由于他总是习惯鼓励学生努力思考，并且培养我们的自学能力。我们之间的关系很融洽。他对人和蔼可亲，所以深受我们的爱戴和尊敬。
我们的老师很出色，我们都很喜欢他。

A Diary
May 20,20xx Friday Sunny
This evening I went to the KTV with some of my good friends.
This was the first time that I had been to a KTV. At first I didn't want to go. I had been in a bad mood the whole afternoon because I didn't do well in the math exam. At the KTV, everybody sang his favourite songs very happily except me. I was the only one of the audience.
I didn't dare to have a try. Because I was afraid that I couldn't sing well. Encouraged by my classmates, I picked up the microphone and sang an English song "I believe I can fly"
I have become cheerful now and above all I've regained selfconfidence. I believe that the worst enemy in one's life is oneself. I shouldn't lose heart just because of one or two failures. Because I still have chances to try.
日记

今天晚上我和我的一些好朋友去KTV。
这是我第一次去KTV。起初我不想去。整个下午我都心情不好，因为我数学考试不好。在KTV，大家唱着自己喜欢的歌曲，除非我很开心。我是唯一的一个观众。
我不敢去尝试。因为我怕我唱不好。鼓励我的同学，我拿起麦克风唱了一首英文歌“我相信我能飞”
现在我的心情舒畅了，我找回了自信。我相信一个人一生中最可怕的敌人就是自己。我不应该因为一个或两个失败而失去信心。因为我还有机会去尝试。
