Recently, a piece of news reported that a girl and her boyfriend made a plan to kill her parents. Luckily, her father was alive for the wrong shot. When the policemen spend two years to make the truth come out, the family was shocked, because the reason was that the parents loved their daughter too much. The fact was that it was love made this tragedy happen. The parents had high expectation on their daughter. Since she was very small, she was sent to learn many skills. Everytime when taking the exams, the girl felt great pressure. She even lied to her parents, just not to let her parents down. The reason of love is many parents’ excuse to make every decision for their kids and ignore their feelings. If the kids resist, then the parents will say it is because of love. Love has become a great burden for many young people. Parents need to consider the kids’ feelings.

Dear Editor,
My physics teacher is very strict with us. I often feel nervous in his classes because we are punished by being made to stand for a few minutes if we can't answer his questions. It's embarrassing (尴尬) to be made to stand in class, so I hate physics classes. However, I really want to do well in physics. What should I do?
Yours sincerely
Zhang Ying
Dear Zhang Ying,
I am sorry you are having difficulty with your physics classes. Teachers have many different ways of encouraging students to put in more effort — it seems as though your physics teacher thinks fear is the best way! He does it because he thinks it will produce results. If you feel that it is stopping you from doing your best then you should tell him. You say you want to do well in physics and if your teacher knows this, he will be pleased. It is only when students are not trying as hard as they can that a teacher is forced to take action. If he is aware of your worries, perhaps he will suggest other ways of helping you improve your work.

亲爱的张颖，
我很抱歉你在物理课上遇到了困难。老师们有许多不同的方式鼓励学生投入更多的精力，这似乎是你的物理老师认为恐惧是最好的方式！他这样做是因为 如果你觉得这是阻止你做你最好的，那么你应该告诉他。你说你想在物理方面做得很好，如果你的老师知道这一点，他会很高兴的。只有当学生没有尽可能地努力，他们可以教师被迫采取行动。如果他知道你的担心，也许他会建议其他的方法来帮助你改善工作。
Like every young girl, I pay attention to make myself look pretty, because if I get more attention from others, I will be very happy. So I start to follow the models and the movies stars' dressing style, then I find that compare to their skinny bodies, I look like a fat girl. So I have made up my mind to lose weight. As my body is in the growth period, my parents always ask me to eat more. When they find me start to eat less, they think I am sick. I tell them that I want to look beautiful, then my mother says that I am beautiful in her eyes. If I don't eat, I will look old. I search the Internet. The pictures of skinny girls scare me, so I give up losing weight. My annoyance is gone, and I am happy again.
Recently, Chairman Xi attached the great importance of keeping the original mind, which was the source for us to fight for. When people get much farther, they will forget about the things that are important to them. In the movies, there always have the scene that pictures a man’s history of fighting. When he becomes successful, he first enjoys the fame and money, but later he feels somethings are missing in his life. The loss of family and close friends make him lost himself and doesn't feel happy. Looking back on his original life, he has the ambition to fight for the family with friends, but once he gets success, he starts to forget the early aim. No matter where we are, we need to remember our first thought. It is the light in the dark, leading us to the place we want.
The year of 2008 is getting closer and closer to us. We need to take actions from now on to prepare for the game. What we need to do most is to work on our disadvantages and shortcomings. As a student of Senior high, I can do my own part. Although I can’t transform our city into more a beautiful place on my own, I can help Beijing in small ways and encourage our classmates and people around me to follow my lead.
Let me take the environment for example, the atmosphere around Beijing is quite disappointing, factories and cars keep giving off exhausts into the air, we can hardly see the blue sky with our naked eyes, because the sky is covered with a thick layer of harmful substances. The sky is gray instead of blue. To our delight, the government has passed some laws of protecting the air, and we can do something useful, too. For example, whenever we go out for a long distance, ride the bike or take the buses and subways instead of taxis. You may not have a clue how it works. Of course doing that only by one person is far from enough, but we can let more people do that together. In that case the result may be more than we bargained for.
Another thing we need to work on is our English skills. Teachers and parents often put great emphasis on our English skills especially listening and speaking. I want to be a volunteer in 2008, to be an interpreter. For now, I must do something helpful to improve my spoken English. Rome isn’t build in a day, so is English. It can’t be improved in a day or two. It takes time and energy. There are no shortcuts to improve your spoken English; the most productive way is to grab all opportunities around you to open your mouth. For instance, taking part in all kinds of English contests is a good way, you can meet some excellent contestants, and you can share the experience of learning and some good method of learning. I will keep participating in all English activities to polish up my English. I’m sure by the year of 2008, I will be able to master English well just as my mother tongue.
All in all, I’m sure that Beijing Olympic Games will be one of the most successful Games in history. I believe our long-cherished dream will be fulfilled in a perfect way!
2008年离我们越来越近了。我们从现在开始需要采取行动为比赛做准备。我们最需要做的是找出我们工作的缺点和不足。作为一名高中生，我可以做我自己的一部分。虽然我自己不能把我们的城市变为更美丽的地方，但我可以从一些小事帮助北京和鼓励我们的同学和周围的人跟随我的引导。
让我以环境为例，北京周围的大气环境比较令人失望，工厂和汽车不断地向空中排放废气，我们几乎用肉眼看不到蓝色的天空，因为天空覆盖着一层厚厚的有害物质。天空是灰色而不是蓝色的。使我们高兴的是，政府已经通过了一些法律保护空气，我们也可以做一些有用的东西。例如，每当我们去很远的地方，可以骑自行车或乘坐公交车和地铁来代替出租车。你可能不知道它是如何工作的。当然，只靠一个人的力量是远远不够的，但是我们可以让更多的人一起去做。在这种情况下，结果可能出乎我们的预料。
我们需要做的另一件是我们的英语技能。老师和家长总是着重强调我们的英语能力，尤其是听力和口语。我想在2008成为一名志愿者，成为一名翻译。现在，我必须做一些有助于提高我的英语口语。罗马不是一天建立的，英语也是如此。它不可能在一天或两天进步。这需要时间和精力。这是提高你的英语口语没有捷径；最有效的方式就是抓住身边的机会开口。例如，参加各种英语竞赛的一部分，是一个很好的方式，你会遇到些非常优秀的选手，与你交流学习体会，借鉴好的学习方法。我将继续参加各类英语活动，来提高我的英语。我确定在2008年，我能掌握英语像母语一样。
总之，我相信北京奥运会将是有史以来最成功的比赛。我相信，我们长时间以来的梦想会以完美的方式得以实现！
Going to high school is my first time to leave home. I have to live in school from Monday to Friday. I like to stay away from my parents for some time, because I can make my own choice and be free to go anywhere. My friends and I like to spend the weekend in the countryside that near the city we live. It is the short travel that I can not only appreciate the beautiful scenery, but also learn to be independent. The things that nature teaches me are a lot. I can see from the color of the cloud to predict the weather and the sound of of animals have different meanings. All of these are hard to know from the books. I have my own thinking from these trips, and the way to take care of myself helps me to grow up.
Dear Bob,
I’m sorry to say that I cannot go to the bookstore with you on Friday afternoon. I have just found that I have to attend an important class meeting that afternoon. I hope the change will not cause you too much trouble.
Shall we go on Saturday morning? We can set out early so that we’ll have more time to read and select books. If it’s convenient for you, let’s meet at 8:30 outside the school gate. If not, let me know what time suits you best. I should be available any time after school next week.
Yours,
Li Hua
Last year, I began my middle school life. I felt excited and scared, because I did not know what was waiting for me. Luckily, I got used to the new environment soon. I felt so excited about the new knowledge and I was curious about everything. I was full of energy everyday and many of my classmates liked to talk to me, so we got familiar with each other and became friends soon. In conclusion, I not only learned the knowledge, but also made a lot of friends. What’s more, I became much independent and got used to the new environment. I believe I will gain more things in the next two years.
去年，我开始了我的初中生活，我感到兴奋也很害怕，因为我不知道前方等待我的是什么。幸运的是，我很快适应了新的环境，我对新知识有着强烈的兴奋感，对一切都感到好奇。我每天精力充沛，很多同学都喜欢和我说话，所以我们彼此熟悉，很快就成为了朋友。总之，我不仅学会了知识，还交了很多朋友。更重要的是，我变得独立也适应了新环境。我相信接下来的两年，我将获得更多的东西。
As the economy develops, most people have the incomes. For some children, their parents can provide them all the things they want. When people start to chase for more amusement, some of them cross the limited line and do the criminal things. Many young people have been reported to take drug in group. The bad guys try to control these young people, so they seduce them to take drugs to make more profit. It is very dangerous to have a taste of drug. Once people try, it is hard for them to get rid of it. The drugs only brings negative sides to people's life, some even to die for it. So a wise person will say no to drugs and the government has taken strict laws to control drugs.
To be successful, students learn many knowledge so as to master as more skills as possible. Some believe that the key to realize our dreams is to work hard and others treat chance in the first place. While today is the information world, the one who masters the all-sided source will have more chances to be successful. In my opinion, the most important skill is the social skill, because we need to make connection with others, we are not doing business with ourselves, so it is in need of having relationship with others. The good social skill can help us attract attention easily and impress the future partner. If we are bad in communicating, how can we let others know our advantages and trust us. So promoting ourselves is the first job, from now on, don’t be shy.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I’m Li Hua, an exchange student from China during this summer vacation. I’m delighted to learn that volunteer students are wanted for a Chinese painting exhibition to be held in the local art gallery. Now I’m writing to apply for the position.
The reasons for my application are as follows. First of all, having been exposed to foreign teachers since a young age, I can communicate freely with others in English. What’s more, years of being monitor makes me a brilliant organizer, which will help a lot to keep the exhibition in order. The most important factor is that my related knowledge will undoubtedly help the audience learn more about the unique Chinese art form.
All in all, my sense of responsibility will make me a qualified volunteer. I’d appreciate it if you could take my application into consideration.
Yours,
Li Hua
