What is your school life like now?
What does a day without homework mean to you?
What can you do on a day when there is no homework?
My school life is very busy now, as there are always many test papers and exercises waiting for me. However, a day without homework is worth expecting. If so, arriving home from school, I can turn on the computer immediately and chat with my friends. I can also play computer games without my parents’ complaint. What’s more, I can get into bed early and have a sound sleep. I think I will completely relax myself on that day so as to study more energetically the next day.
Our school life is so busy that I have to deal with my homework until 12:00 nearly every night. In my opinion, a day without homework means having more time to get along with my parents. As a grade nine student, I seldom have a chance to communicate with my parents. So on a day without homework, I may go with my family to the park for a picnic, free from the hustle and bustle of the city life. We may enjoy ourselves by lying on the grass, bathing in the sunshine. In brief, such a day must be expectant and special, and our family life will be greatly improved.
2.A special gift I am looking forward to
I used to receive gifts like„
The gift I’m looking forward to is„ It is special because„ I hope„
I used to receive gifts like basketballs, cards, cakes and so on, but the gift I’m looking forward to is a day without homework. It is special because I’m so busy nowadays that I seldom have time to stay with my parents. I hope on that day my parents and I will go to the park for a picnic. We can enjoy ourselves by lying on the grass and chatting with each other, completely free from the hustle and bustle of the city. Then I will be able to return to school relaxed and refreshed. How I expect the gift to come as soon as possible!
I used to receive gifts like a basketball, a swatch or a CD. But the gift I’m looking forward to is a bicycle though I can’t ride it now. How I want to learn it well so that I can ride anywhere I want to go! Every morning, it is my father who always drives me to school in all kinds of weather. Especially in the past few days, he has worked hard until midnight. If I ride my own bicycle to school, he will be able to sleep a little longer and work a bit harder. I hope my dream of owning a bicycle will be realized in the shortest possible time.
3.What Are Good Friends?
In your eyes what are good friends? Have you got any good friends?
What do they do when you are in trouble? Give some examples.
Nobody can live a happy life without a good friend. People need friends just like they need water and food. As we all know, friends are just another word for “help”, because good friends always
help each other in some ways. For example, when I have difficulties in my studies, my friends will help me to overcome them. Besides, we also work and play together to share our joy and sorrow. In my opinion, a good friend should be honest, friendly, responsible, generous and humorous. In brief, a real friend may spend his whole life with you.
Life has its ups and downs, and only true friends always stay around. Like anyone else, I have got many friends. They often help me when I’m in trouble. Especially, when I fail in an examination, they always care for me and encourage me to study harder. Last year, when I was hurt in a basketball game, my friends took me to the nearby hospital at once and look after me by turns. In my eyes, friends are the most precious wealth that one should treasure all his life.
4.… bring(s) me happiness
What brings you happiness?
Why do you think it brings you happiness? (Give at least two reasons) What have you learnt from it?
Everybody reads books, but not all of them can find enjoyment and pleasure from books. Reading books can not only relax me, but bring me happiness as well. Very often reading keeps the balance between work and leisure when I face difficult problems. I usually read a book for a while, and try to know a kind of spirit and wisdom from different characters. No doubt it is a good choice to get fun. All in all, I always learn a lot from books. Thus, books are a source of my endless happiness.
Music is something that makes us relaxed and happy. No matter how busy I am, I would find time to enjoy listening to music because it brings me happiness. For busy students like us, listening to music just makes our life more colorful and enjoyable. Once I didn’t do well in my examination. I felt sad, so I listened to some classical music for a change. By and by, I felt much better and more confident. Music is beautiful beyond description. The more you listen to it, the happier you will feel.
5.My Last Birthday
Was your last birthday special?
What did you do on that special day? What presents did you receive?
How did you feel about the birthday and the presents?
Everyone has many birthdays in their lives. But none of them is different from one another. My fifteenth birthday was so special that I will never forget it. As usual, I got to school on time. But to my surprise, nobody seemed to be in the classroom. I was at a loss when suddenly out came a loud voice, “Happy birthday!” Everyone came into view with a beautiful present. I was really moved and surprised. Although I hadn’t mentioned my birthday before, everyone kept it in mind! It was really an amazing birthday – not because of the beautiful presents, but the great friendship I received!
Last weekend I had my fifteenth birthday. I invited my friends to my home and had a very nice party. My parents didn’t buy me a cake, instead they cooked a delicious feast for me as a birthday present. My friends also brought me a lot of presents, from which I realized I received not only presents but also friendship between us. Then we sang some songs and played some games. Though time passed very fast, we all enjoyed ourselves very much. I really appreciated love around me. I think it was a special and unforgettable day.
6.The Importance of Keeping Healthy
Why is health important to every one of us? What is a healthy person like? How can we keep healthy?
As we all know, life is a gift, the most precious gift that one could ever have. So it is important for us to keep healthy no matter how busy our life is. In my opinion, “keeping healthy” is just another word for “doing exercise”. Thus I enjoy walking after meals and jogging between classes, I think it is a good way to keep fit and relax myself as well. Besides, a good diet is also the key to good health. We should eat more vegetables and less meat. In brief, the healthier you keep now, the longer life you will live in the future.
As we all know, what health is to our life is just like what water to fish, so better health is necessary to our better life, because it is impossible for us to enjoy life if we don’t have good health. In my opinion, we should first do proper exercise and have enough sleep so that we’ll be able to have more energy to study hard and play well. Second, we ought to have a healthy and balanced diet to protect ourselves from harm. Besides, we also should own a good mood in order to keep calm and happy whenever we face any difficulty. In a word, better health, better life.
7.Don't Waste Time
Try telling the importance of time.
How do you think we must save the time?
Time is like a train which can only go forward. In another word, lost time can never be found again. What’s more, one’s time is as precious as his life. As the saying goes, wasting time means wasting your life, because we can only live once in the world. So, no matter what we do, we mustn’t waste time, even one second. Then we should do something to save time. For example, while doing our homework, we shouldn’t think about anything else. Besides, we should shorten the time we spend in watching TV or playing computer games. In brief, never waste any time.
It is obvious that time is very important. In my opinion, time is just another word for life. So, a waste of time is a waste of life. In order to cherish and save time, we should do as many meaningful things as possible. For example, we should spend our limited time on what is the most important. On the one hand, we should focus on our daily studies. On the other hand, we should read more books to enrich our knowledge and do more sports to build up our bodies. Needless to say, we must save every minute and do everything well.
8.My Happiest Day
What day is your happiest day? What did you on that day?
Why did you consider it your happiest day?
As a beginner of German, I think the first day I took it up was my happiest day, because this is a new language for me and interested me all at once. However, learning German is not an easy job. It is different from Chinese and English, so I met some difficulties when I opened the book for the first time. As the saying goes, “No pains, no gains”. I tried hard to get every sound right and every point clear. Soon I managed to solve these problems quickly. Now I find it a pleasure to learn German. All this proves again that every day in life always makes us happy if you face it optimistically.
Spring Festival is the most important day to us Chinese. And last Spring Festival was my happiest day. One of the reasons is I didn’t have to do my homework. Instead, I relaxed myself completely by watching TV and listening to some music. What’s more, I received a lot of pocket money from my parents and relatives so that I can buy something special for myself. All this made me feel very pleased beyond description. The day was also a beginning of the new year as well as my new hope that I will do better in the Year of Dragon.
I think my first cooking experience is very precious and that day has become my happiest day. One day, I decided to make a kind of soup for my mother as she was always busy in the kitchen. However, I was very confused because it turned out to be far more difficult than it seemed. No matter how I tried, the soup was overdone and very dry. My mother did not scold me, instead she re-cooked the mess I had left. She told me: “The way to success is paved with endless failure and practice.” These words left me a deep impression. My sadness began to turn to joy, because I realized practice makes perfect. Thus it was my happiest day.

The person I admire most is my mother. She is a beloved mother with selfless love. First, she does housework from morning to evening without any complaint. She is so busy every day that she almost has no time to rest. However, in the evening, as soon as she finishes her housework, she usually comes to me and begins to check my homework. No matter how tired she is, she always serves as my learning helper. With her help, I have made much progress in my studies. Moved by her selfless love, I will never stop learning. Such is a great mother I admire most.
The person I admire most is Avril Lavigne. She is from Canada, but she also is a French singer. Her voice is so nice that her songs are very popular in the world. People, old or young, all love her as well as her songs. However, no pains, no gains. She keeps working hard every day in order to
make her fans happy and amazed. What’s more, she has never felt tired, even when she has fallen ill. I have learnt a lot from her, and I admire her most, especially for her insistence in her work.
When I heard the news about Steve Jobs’ death, I couldn’t even believe my ears, because he is the person I admire most. Jobs was one of the founders of the Apple Company. With creative ideas, he always had a dream, and never stopped inventing. Even when he was fighting with cancer, he didn’t give up his dream. Instead, he worked and studied hard to realize his dream, with one invention and another to surprise us. He has set a good example for me to follow. His life experience will always encourage me to work hard to be a wonderful person like him. I think my dream will come true, too.

Do you think it’s important to get on well with _____? What is/are your way(s) to get on well with him/her/them?
I think it’s important to get on well with teachers. Teachers play an important role in teaching and learning. With their help, students can make progress day by day. If I get on well with them, they will be happy to teach me more actively. So I can learn more. Here are some ways to get on well with them. First, respect their work and listen carefully in class. Second, take notes seriously and finish your homework on time. Third, discuss problems with them and ask for advice. Last, never cheat in exams or break class rules.

It is obvious that to get on well with parents is important. But there is always a generation gap between us, so it sometimes seems to be difficult to get on well with them. Here’re some suggestions that will help you to improve your relationship. First, we should be patient and obedient when parents say something again and again, for they mean well. Besides, we should do as much housework as possible to please them. For example, we can clean our room and wash our clothes. Last but not least, it’s our duty to do well in our studies. If we can deal with these problems, we are sure to get on well with our parents
11.I like sports
Health is the most important thing in our daily lives. Doing sports can help me to keep healthy. That’s why I like sports. Every morning, I usually go jogging in the park. At the same time, I can breathe fresh air and have a merry heart so as to deal with a day’s work. On weekends, riding bikes with my friends is my choice. We enjoy beautiful views and gentle breezes while riding our bikes. I really feel free and comfortable. All the problems that trouble me are gone away. I like sports and I will always do sports.
It is necessary for us to have sports every day, as they can not only keep me healthy but also boost my spirit. Every morning I run 1000 metres around the school playground. It often makes me full of energy and in a good mood. Otherwise I will fall asleep in the first lesson. What’s more, sports
like basketball, football and billiards can relax me and bring me happiness. Furthermore, although sports are a bit tiring, especially on rainy days, I still love them and take an active part in them, because the more sports I do today, the stronger body I will build up tomorrow.

I can share my happiness or sadness with him freely every day. In addition, it records my experiences and growth. When I write what I see and how I feel at the end of a day, I rethink about the problems in real life. At the same time, I can also improve my Chinese and English writing. In short, keeping a diary gives me a chance to express and better myself. Thus, it has become my good habit.

I used to go to hospital twice a week due to my poor health. But now, I’m strong and healthy. That’s because something happened on my tenth birthday. My brother gave me a box as a birthday gift. As soon as I opened the box, I was attracted by a basketball inside. I picked it up and played with it the whole day. It is basketball that changed me greatly. Since then, I have played basketball with my friends as often as possible. As a result, I have gradually improved myself and built up my body . Now I feel great and keep the doctor away.
When I was just a little boy, I used to be afraid of water. Although my parents had told me again and again that it was not so dangerous as I thought, I still dared not swim like others. But one day when my parents told me that they had found a swimming teacher for me, I decided to face the music. I just closed my eyes when I first jumped into the water. To my surprise, I felt excited while surrounded by water. Taught little by little, I managed to swim in the pool. Soon I felt not only interested but also proud. Now, I can face any difficulty cheerfully because I have changed into a brave boy.
