A man who lived in a block of apartments thought it was raining and put his head out the window to check. As he did so a glass eye fell into his hand.
He looked up to see where it came from in time to see a young woman looking down.
“Is this yours?” he asked.
She said, “Yes, could you bring it up?” and the man agreed.
On arrival she was profuse in her thanks and offered the man a drink. As she was very attractive he agreed. Shortly afterwards she said, “I'm about to have dinner. There's plenty. Would you like to join me?”
He readily accepted her offer and both enjoyed a lovely meal. As the evening was drawing to a close the lady said, “I've had a marvelous evening. Would you like to stay the night?”
The man hesitated then said, “Do you act like this with every man you meet?”
“No,” she replied, “Only those who catch my eye.”
Hello, ladies and gentlemen. It’s great to be here. First of all, thanks for your coming. Tonight, what I am gonna talk about is innovation. Who can tell me what is innovation? We all know that, since 1978, China has been through the greatest changes brought by the reform and opening-up. So what we can see from the reform and opening-up? The power of innovation. That’s why I am here. I am here to show you my Chinese dream. I want to talk about the future and how we're going to win it. If we want to make innovation. But firstly, we should make sure that China is a place where we can make it if we try, where we can go as far as hard work and big dreams will take us. We understand that it’s not going to be a cakewalk, this competition for the future, which means all of us are going to have to do our best. We are going to have to win the future by being smarter and working harder and working together. Innovation is the spirit of our country, the motive force for our country’s prosperity.
Sparking the imagination and creativity of our people, unleashing new discoveries -- that's what China will do better than any other country on Earth. From the moment we have a new idea, we can explore it; we can develop it with a research grant; we can protect it with a patent; we can market it with a loan to start a new business. We’ve got a chain that takes a great idea all the way through. We must be confirmed that, today, the challenges we face are real.
They are serious they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But we will somehow find a way to overcome the difficulties. My major is . My job is to discover or create new drugs for many diseases like cancer. You know that laboratory is the place where miracles happen. Believe it or not. What I do can save millions of people’s lives. For a long time, what challenges me is how to commercialize research. You come up with a great idea, but moving that new discovery from theory to practice or from the lab to the marketplace, that's re ally a big job. That’s what we should focus on.
We need to act with a sense of urgency-to study and work and create as if the fate of the country depends on us-because it does. It depends on us. Thank you!

They hear the shout, and hurry to help the boy. But when get there, the boy says: “There isn’t a wolf. I’m joking. The farmers are angry and go back to their field. After a while the boy shouts again, “Wolf! Wolf! Wolf is coming!” And the farmers come and are cheated again. The boy laughs and laughs. They say, “You tell lies. We will not believe you.”
Later a wolf really comes. The boy is very scared. “Wolf! Wolf! Wolf is coming!” the boy shouts and shouts. “Help! Help!” But no one comes. And wolf eats the naughty boy.
狼来了
村子里有个淘气的小男孩，他喜欢撒谎。一天，他想捉弄村民，就大喊：“狼来了!狼来了!” 善良的村民们正在地里干活，听到喊声，赶快去救他。可是他们到了那里，男孩说：“没有狼。我跟你们开玩笑的。”村民很生气，回到田里。不一会，那孩子大喊：狼来了!狼来了!”村民来了，却再次被欺骗。男孩开心地大笑，村民们说：“你说谎。我们再也不会相信你了。”
后来狼真的来了。男孩十分害怕。 “狼来了!狼来了!”他大声呼喊，“救命啊!救命!”但是没人来。结果这个淘气的男孩被狼吃了。
The fourth Thursday in November is called Thanksgiving Day. On this day, families and friends gather together, share a meal, and give thanks for the blessings of good health,food,jobs,and families.
In 1620,a group of Pilgrims left from England to search for religious freedom,part of whom were Protestants.And they sailed to America on a small sailboat named the Mayflower finally. And they landed at what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts,in icy November. The price in human lives and tragedy had been great.
11月的第4个星期四是感恩节。这一天，亲友们团聚一堂，一起进餐，感谢上帝带来身体康健，食物充足，工作顺利，家庭幸福。
1620xx年,一群英国的朝圣者,其中部分是新教徒,为了寻求宗教自由乘坐一艘被称为”五月花”的船离开本国，最终航行到美国.在寒冷的十一月，他们抵达了今天的马萨诸塞州的普利茅斯，生存的代价是巨大而悲惨的。
On the other hand,they saw new hope for the future.The first official Thanksgiving in America took place in Plymouth colony, Massachusetts in October 1621.Thanksgiving did not become a national holiday until 1863 during the American Civil War.
In the United States,thanksgiving dinner is practically the same all over the country. The table is always loaded with delicious food of many different kinds.Naturally,the main course is turkey(a bird native to the Americans),with an array of vegetables and desserts.Pumpkin pie is often served in remembrance of the first settlers.
另一方面，他们也看到了未来的希望.美国的第一个正式的感恩节发生在1620xx年10月，马萨诸塞州的普利茅斯殖民地。直到1863年美国南北战争时期，感恩节才成了一个全国性的节日。
hello! everyone. i’m tang jingting. i’ am eleven years old. i’m from experiment primary school. i’m in class 1，grade 5, . nice to meet you.
i’m a happy girl. there are three members in my family: my father, my mother and i. both of my parents love me very much and i love them too.
i have many hobbies, such as sports, singing and reading books. and i play the piano very well. but i love animals most. now i will tell you about my favorite animal. today my topic is my favorite animal.
my favorite animal
do you know what my favorite animal is? it is one of the most precious animals. their bodies are very long. they live in the sea. they live on fish, shrimps and so on.
they are very clever. people often train them，so that they can give it show which brings people a lot of happiness and joy.
they are very friendly and peaceful. they never attack people. instead, they have saved many people in danger in the past years. how helpful they are!
can you guess its name now? yes, you are right. they are dolphins.
however, unluckily, the number of dolphins is getting smaller and smaller. because of water pollution, there is less and less space for dolphins. many people make money by hunting dolphins. if we don’t protect them，maybe we’ll lose our good friends one day. as a student, i hope more and more people should protect dolphins.
i love dolphins very much. and i hope dolphins are our good friends for ever. i hope they can live in the blue sea happily and peacefully. let’s protect the animals together. let’s take actions.
A Place to Sleep 睡觉的地方
By the time John pulled into the little town, every hotel room was taken. "You've got to have a room somewhere." he pleaded. "Or just a bed--I don't care where."
"Well, I do have a double room with one occupant," admitted the manager," and he might be glad to split the cost. But to tell you the truth, he snores so loudly that people in adjoining rooms have complained in the past. I'm not sure it'd be worth it to you."
"No problem," the tired traveler assured him. "I'll take it."
The next morning, John came down to breakfast bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. When asked about how he slept, he replied, "Never better."
The manager was impressed. "No problem with the other guy snoring, then?"
"Nope. I shut him up in no time."
"How'd you manage that?"
"He was already in bed, snoring away, when I came in the room," John said. "I went over, gave him a kiss on the cheek, said, 'Goodnight, beautiful.' With that he sat up all night watching me."
My favourite colour is green,we can see the colour everywhere:tree leaves are green,grass is green and so on.Green is also a healthy colour,during our lives,we seeing this colour more often is good for our eyes,and why we don't called those natural food like "Red Food","Blue Food" or "Purple Food"? So you can understand how impotant it is.Green means life,hope youth and etc.That's my favourite colour:Green,I hope more and more people will like green like me.
Thanks for listing!
A hippo lives in the zoo. I like him very much. I often go to see him. He often thinks of me, too. Today is Sunday. It is fine day. I go to see him again. After I leave the zoo, he follows me to my house. I give him lettuce, cabbages, bananas, apples and other food. He eats them up. When I sing songs, he stays in the pool. He is as quite as a rabbit.
In the evening, he jumps onto my bed with me. My mum tells him to go home. He has to pack his bag and go back to the zoo. My mum lets me see him every week.
我与河马
河马住在动物园里，我很喜欢他。他经常去看它，他也经常想我。 今天是星期日，是个好天气，我又一次去看望它。在我离开动物园之后，他跟随到我的家。我给他莴苣、生菜、香蕉、苹果和其他食物。他都吃了。 当我唱歌是，它待在水池里，像兔子一样安静。 晚上，他跳到床上同我睡觉在一起睡。
妈妈要它回家。它不得不背起包回到动物园。妈妈允许我每周去看它。
A、B: Good afternoon, everybody! Welcome to I love English. I'm your friend, William! I'm Mandy. Nice to see you again.
A： Mandy , do you like English story?
B: Of course, It's funny. How about you?
A: Me, too. 就在昨天下午第二节课举行了八达小学第六届英语故事比赛，有52名小选手参与了其中，为老师和部分学生充分展现了他们的英语才华，故事精彩纷呈，我也从中学到了很多。
B： 说得没错!有一位小选手让我印象特别深刻，小小的年纪却能说出那么动听的英语小故事，真棒!令在场所有的老师和同学们都赞叹不已!下面我们就请出今天这个环节的小主人公：来自二年三班的周旻昊小朋友!就让她再为我们讲讲她的故事吧!
......
A： 真不错!我也要向她学习。这周五周旻昊等八名同学将代表我们学校参加区英语故事比赛，预祝她们发挥出水平，取得不错的成绩，加油!
B： 加油!对了，William,你知道什么是doggy bag 吗?
A： Doggy bag 这可真难倒了我，你说说看!
B： 呵呵，不知道了吧!美国是一个很富裕的国家，可是美国人并不随意浪费。例如，在餐馆用餐时，如果点的食物没吃完，他们会将剩下的饭菜打包回家。这时候用来打包的食物的纸袋子被称为doggy bag，大家都知道 dog 是狗，那么打包回家跟狗会有什么关系呢?以前，美国人也不好意思把在餐馆里吃剩的东西带回家，怕丢面子，所以，就经常有人会对服务员说：“ could you please wrap the rest of the food for me ? I’d like to take it home for my dog.(请把剩余的食物给我包起来，好吗?我想带回家给我的狗吃。) doggy bag 一词便这样出现了。在当今的美国，人们把在餐馆中吃剩的东西带回家已经是习以为常了，没有人会因为要把剩菜带回家而感到不好意思了。
A：今天又新学了一个单词，同学们你们也记住了吗? Doggy bag 就是用来打包的食物的纸袋子。节目的最后是我们的charming music 魅力音乐。今天将听到的歌曲是rivers of Babylon ,同样是一首经典英语歌曲，希望大家喜欢。
A: ok , so much for today , see you!

Hello,everyone!
Today I am very happy,Because I can talk about with you.You see I am a lovely girl,yes!I like laughing,I like studying.That`s me-- zhuyingjie from Badong shiyan primary school.I am eight. I am young but I know “we are the masters of nature.” We have only one earth. But now,the environment becomes worse and worse. As you know,there's no enough clean water for people. So many of them lose their lives because of water.If we take good care of our earth today,it will be more beautiful tomorrow.
My dear friend let us start from the trivial side,To be a good kid keeper.
As is known to all, with the improvement of people's living standards, cars have become a popular means of transport, bringing great convenience to our life. However, they have also caused some problems such as air pollution and traffic jams. How can we solve these problems then? As far as I'm concerned, riding bicycles is a good solution. For one thing, bicycles don't need any petrol and they are energy-saving. For another, bicycles are environmentally friendly because they won't give off waste gas. What's more, riding bicycles is a good way for us to exercise and it is good for our health. Therefore, let's take the responsibility to build up a lowcarbon city by riding bicycles. Come on and join us! Thank you for listening!
I don't think so. printed books won't be abandoned in such a short time. I admit that new technology is developing fast.
Many advanced electronic products are gradually take the place of traditional tools. Just like in university, teachers like to use multimedia in class for it is quite convenient and efficient. However, for our student, it is not realistic to study completely by electronic products.
There are many things need to recorded on books. Books are something meaningful and practical. I should say, in our country, printed books wouldn't be abandoned within 20 years at least for two reasons.
Firstly, books are classical container of knowledge. They accompany human to advance. A student without books could be someway ridiculous.
Secondly, our country haven't developed so strong to make every student study by computer or other forms of electronic tools. And even after 20 years, the possibility is also very small.
I also think it is unnecessary because books are cheap but useful and still meaningful.
Youth is not a time of life,it is a state of mind;it is not rosy cheeks,red lips and supple knees,it is a matter of the emotions:it is the freshness;it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.
Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity of the appetite,for adventure over the love of ease.this often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20.Nobody grows old merely by a number of years.we grow old by deserting our ideals.
Years wrinkle the skin,but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.Worry,fear,self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
Whether 60 of 16,there is in every human beings heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what's next and the joy of the game of living .In the center of your heart and my heart there's a wireless station:so long as it receives messages of beauty,hope,cheer,courage and power from men and from the infinite,so long as you are young.
When the aerials are down,and your spirit is covered with snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism,then you are grown old,even at 20,but as long as your aerials are up,to catch waves of optimism,there is hope you may die young at 80.
Thank you!

Dear teachers and classmates:
Good afternoon, I am very nice to make a speech here! This time, I'd like to talk something about English.
As everyone knows. English language is very important today. It is now used everywhere in the world.
I love English. When I was eight, my mother sent me to an English school. At there, I played games and sang English songs with other children . I also often read English following the tapes and watch English cartoons at home. By talking with English people, I have made more and more friends as well as improved my oral English. Then I discovered the beauty of the language, and began my colorful dream in the English world. It makes me confident and brings me great pleasure.
I hope I can travel around the world someday and introduce China to them in English, such as the Great Wall, the Forbidden City and so on. Of course, I want to go to London , because England is where English language developed.
I know, Rome was not built in a day. I believe that after continuous hard study, one day I can speak English very well.
If you want to be loved, you should learn to love and be lovable. So I believe as I love English everyday , it will love me too.
MONEY 钱
Everybody wishes (hopes) to get money so that he can maintain his livelihood. In other words, money is so useful that it is impossible for mankind to live without it. For this reason, we have an interesting proverb. It says “Money can make the world go around.” In a word, money is more powerful than anything else.
However, money should not be wasted. It must be used for (some) proper purposes. We young men should form the good habit of not spending money in the wrong way.
每个人为了能够维持生活，所以都希望得到钱。换句话说，钱是非常有用，所以没有它人类即无法生活。基于此种理由，我们有一句有趣的谚语。它说有“钱能使鬼推磨”。一言以蔽之，钱比任何另外的东西更有力量。
然而，钱不应该被浪费掉。它必须用于正当的用途上。我们青年人应该养成不乱花钱的好习惯。
