ancient times.It is a gem of Chinese traditional culture.As we all know,the fine culture of a nation doesnt belong to the nation alone and it will be spread to the rest of the world and shared by all

first-hand the splendors of this venerable civilization.4.越来越多受英文教育的海外华人父母,已经认识到孩子在掌握不可或缺的英文的同时,也通晓中文的重要性.中国的崛起,让他们充分认识到孩子掌握双语的好处既能增加他们的就业机会,也能让他们接触和熟悉东西方两种不同的文化.核心词提示：双语：bilingual An increasing number of English-educated Chinese parents overseas have come to the realization that while English learning is indispensable to their children,it is essential that their kids have a good command of

facilitate their exposure to and familiarity with the two different cultures between the East and the West.5.中秋节

为了弄清大自然的真相,他总是挑选道路艰险的山区,人迹稀少的森林进行考察,发现了许多奇山秀景；他常常选择不同的时间和季节,多次重游各地名山,反复观察变换的奇景.Xu Xiake toured and investigated 16 provinces in his lifetime,covering almost the whole of China/the whole country.When he was carrying out his investigations,he never took blind belief in the conclusions in the books.Instead he found a lot of unreliable points in the geographic records taken by his predecessors.In order to make his investigations reliable and thorough,he seldom traveled by carriage or boat.Instead,he took long,arduous trips on foot almost all the time,climbing mountains and hills.In order to learn about the truth of nature,he always chose to conduct investigations in mountainous areas with dangerous roads and in lonely/untraveled woods,where he discovered a lot of magnificent peaks and beautiful sights.7.多少年来,我养成了一个习惯：每天早晨四点在黎明以前起床工作.我不出去跑步或散步,而是一下床就干活儿.因此我对黎明前的的了解是在屋子里感觉到的.我从前在什么报上读过一篇文章,讲黎明时分天安门广场上的清洁工人.那情景必然是非常动人的,可惜我从未能见到,只是心向往之而已.For many years,I have been in the habit of getting up before daybreak to start work at four.Instead of going out for a jog or walk,Ill set about my workas soon as Im out of bed.As a result,it is from insidemy study that Ive got the feel of

beautiful nature is no longer so beautiful.Protection of wild life is protection of man himself.So I appeal strongly to all to stop killing the chimpanzee or any other wild animal.Let us human beings

make fireworks.Now people have realized that only when science and technology is used in developing the production will the society advance.
