I think winning means doing what you should do and being good at it. Most of us can only live in this world for no more than 80 or 90 years. We shouldn’t think too much about what we can get from this world. Instead, we should think about what we can leave to this world. The one who can make more contributions to the world is a real winner. For example, cleaning the street is a humble job in many people’s eyes. But in my opinion,street cleaners can also be great winners. They make our city more beautiful. They give us a better environment and consequently a better life. But, on the contrary, somepeople make money at the cost of the environment. Some are even worse: They cheat or harm others in order to gain power or earn money. Winners or losers? It’s time to give it a second thought.Unit 5Translation Practice梦是心灵的谈话我们人类至今尚未开启通往梦的世界的大门。

Writing课后作文范文A NightmareI grew up in the country and life was hard at that time. I used to share a small bed with my younger brother. We would often fight for space.One night, I had a terrible dream. In the dream, our village was occupied by foreign invaders. The invaders were taking away property and children from households. They set houses on fire and killed anyone who did not obey them. I managed to hide in a pile of hay. I could hear my heart thumping when I saw some foreign soldiers coming toward our house.I c ouldn’t see them clearly because my eyes were covered with hay. I could hear them coming nearer and talking angrily, but I didn’t understand anything they said. Just then, I realized that one of my arms was not fully covered. I wanted to hide itbut I dared not move. Then one of the soldiers discovered me. I was almost frightened to death, but still I didn’t move. Then I felt a severe pain on my left arm. I was wounded by a soldier with a sword.I woke up and realized that I had just had a nightmare. But my left arm was hurting. My brother’s leg had been pressing on my arm.Unit 7写作要求：Write a composition on the topic “D ining Customs in China”. You can base it on the result of your discussion. You should write at least 120 words. Remember to write neatly.Dining Customs in China [范文1]Each country has its own peculiar dining customs. The Chinese feel that the first role of being a courteous guest is to be modest. When a person is invited to dinner,he will decline first because he is afraid it will give the host and hostess a lot of trouble preparing for it. As the host keeps in inviting him, he’ll then accept it. Usually the guest will bring some gifts to the host, such as fruit, flowers and wine. The host will immediately protest his doing so by saying, “You shouldn’t have brought the gifts. You are too polite and generous!”When the guest sits down and starts chatting, the host offers something such as tea, candy and fruit. The guest always says, “No, no, please don’t bother, I am not thirsty,” or “I’ll help myself to them.”When the dinner is ready, the guests are invited to sit down first. They sit in the chairs that are facing the south, which are considered to be honored seats. After everybody is seated, the host asks the guests to start eating first because they will not eat before the host says so. The guestsoften avoid being eager to eat out of politeness. They usually don’t empty the dishes to show that the host has prepared more food than enough out of their hospitality. On the other hand, the host and the hostess usually prepare a lot of food to feed their guests.When the dinner is over, guests will offer to help with the cleaning, but of course, the host and hostess will not let them do so. Instead, they will ask the guests to watch TV, drink tea and sometimes to join a card game or Mahjong game. After some time, the guests will leave, and it is customary for the host to see the guests off. The host tries to see them off to the farthest feasible point while the guests try to discourage them from doing so. The guests will usually invite the host to their home in order to return the favor.[范文2]If you are a guest in China and you’re going to have dinner with the Chinese, you should learn many things about the dining customs in China.Before the dinner begins, the guests and the host all sit at the table. Usually the hostess is busy preparing dishes and the host will chat with the guests. The dinner will begin when everybody is present. When the dinner begins, the host says to the guests, “Please help yourselves!”the guests usually say, “Ok! Ok!”The host starts the dinner first and the others follow. The host or hostess will bring food to the bowls of their guests to encourage them to eat as much as they can. The guests will say “No, no, you don’t have to bother” or “I’ll help myself” at the beginning and will let the host or hostess do so later on. At a Chinese table a guest should not eat too quickly to finish eating very soon. TheChinese like to talk with each other during the dinner. If someone eats without speaking to anyone else, he is considered unfriendly or impolite. So the atmosphere at the dinner table is always pleasantly noisy.At the end of the dinner, if someone wants to leave the table, he should apologize to others for not being able to accompany them to the end and at the same time ask them to eat slowly.These are a few dining customs in China.unit9课后翻译Translation Practice1) Real bargains are beneficial to customers. Consumers are willing to buy products of (a) high quality at a low price.However, some bargains in some shops are poor in quality. Consumers will be cheated if they buy them. Therefore, one has to be careful in buying bargains. It may take him a lot oftime to look for bargains. In addition, what the purchasers should pay attention to is that they shouldn’t buy things they don’t need, though they are cheap . Otherwise, they are just wasting money.2) Shopping is closely related to media. A lot of the consumers buy products under the influence of advertisements. These ads provide people with all kinds of information about different items. No wonder manufacturers spend a lot of money advertising their products through various media. Nowadays, Internet is playing a more and more important role in shopping, because it is faster, easier and more convenient. Shopping online has become popular.课后作文范文WritingDirections: Write a composition on one of the following topics. You can base your composition on the result of your debate and discussions. You shouldwrite at least 100 words, remember to write neatly.1) On Bargains2) Media and ShoppingOn Bargains Sample 1Bargains are products that are reduced in price. Some bargains are real bargains , because they are cheaper in price but the quality is good. Some bargains are very poor quality because the shopkeeper merely marks prices higher than normal and then marks them down. This is , in fact, a trick to cheat customers. I think this kind of bargains is bad and should be prohibited.But I like the real bargains. It is important to be able to buy goods you want with less money. But it takes a lot of time, and you have to hunt forbargains. Once I bought a pair of leather shoes at half price. I felt very happy. But sometimes I feel cheated when the shop assistant says that the original price was 300 yuan, fo r example, but now it’s only 100 yuan and I know he is not telling the truth. Some customers who cannot resist the temptation will buy the product. Later when they find out that they have been cheated, they will be very angry.In a word, bargains are good if the rare real bargains. However, one has to be careful in buying bargains. It’s also wise never to buy anything you don’t really need just it’s cheap.Sample 2There are a lot of bargains in stores and markets when we go shopping. I think these bargains are good for consumers even if the price has been reduced only a little.There are many reasons why there are so many bargains. Some shops mark down prices in order to attract customers, some in order to defeat their opponents in the market competition, and some to sell their goods as quickly as possible. Though they cut prices, shops can still make money from the goods. But the customers can spend less money on the same commodities, so we welcome bargains.Though there are a lot of b argains, we shouldn’t buy things if we don’t need them. Other wise we are just wasting money. We should buy only what we really need. If we can do that, bargains can really be useful for us and we can really save money.So I think bargains are good and we need them. However, we should always be careful when we are tempted by a bargain. It pays to be intelligentshopperMedia and ShoppingSample 1Nowadays, shopping is closely related to media. When you read the morning newspaper, when you watch TV, or listen to the radio, you see and hear many advertisements about various products. The advertisements make every effort to stimulate consumers to purchase. I like watching ads on television, not only because they provide information but also because they are often clever or beautiful. Sometimes I buy a brand only because I have seen it advertised on the television. So I’m like most people. My shopping behavior is influenced by the media.To a certain degree, people trust media more than themselves. Theymight buy something that does not look perfect, but because it was advertised in the media, they will buy it. Perhaps people trust the media too much, and just listen to what the ads say.However, the media help stimulate consumption. Consumers are informed quickly and they are urged to buy and to spend their money.Sample 2I think media such as TV, radio and newspapers affect people’s shopping behavior greatly. The most common way is through advertisements. We can see or hear ads everywhere, in the newspapers, in the street, on the buses or on the radio. We are usually interested in these ads and often want to buy the products advertised. This is just what the manufacturers hope for. They spend a lotof money to advertise their products through various media. The ads can provide you with a lot of information about the various items. So ads are beneficial not only to manufacturers but also to shoppers.In modern society, computers have also become a new medium. People get information about the products on the Internet. This is a faster, easier and more exact way for both shopping and advertising than any other way. I think the Internet will play an increasingly important role in people’s shopping.。
