me when I am sick and my friends will go together with me side by side through this journey of life As students we could share more time with our friends The friendship in our young hearts is pure fresh and simple I often feel very lucky to have a lot of good friends Especially when I had Justin as one of my best friends Justin was my English teacher from the USA I met him in 1996 when I was a student who could only speak very little English Justin was a vivid young man with a bright smile on his face and he always had his special way to make the class active and attractive He taught us English by telling 第 2 页 共 10 页 stories playing games singing songs and even dancing I could still remember very clearly that one afternoon when we fin ished our class we went to some other classes to sing songs for them just like what people do in the states on Christmas Eve It was so interesting and unforgettable Justin was an excellent teacher because he taught us not only how to study English well but also the way to find out the beauty of the world and the way to be angels to others lives I know there was friendship and pure love in our hearts Facing this valuable emotion neither nationality nor age was important the real importance lay in faith under standing and care Justin is the best friend I have ever had and I know I will cherish those days of staying together with him as the best part of my memory Friendship is a kind of treasure in our lives It is actually like a bottle of wine the longer it is kept the sweeter it will be 第 3 页 共 10 页 It is also like a cup of tea When we are thirsty it will be our best choice but when we have enough time to enjoy ourselves it is also the most fragrant drink However in this fast developing modern society the reality is not that More and more people forget to enjoy the beauty of life and the beauty of friendship They work hard in order to gain a higher position in the society and to earn more money for their work Of course we don t deny that it is important to find a bet ter place in our lives but we wish more and more people could pay a little more attention to themselves and their friends All of us have to spare some time for personal lives We have to find the chance to express our emotion and love When staying with our friends we can release ourselves completely We can do whatever we want we can laugh together talk together and even cry to gether I should say that being together with our best friends is the most wonderful moment 第 4 页 共 10 页 of our lives As we know we would feel lonely if we didn t even have a friend But it doesn t mean we could depend on our friends all the time There is a famous motto saying that A friend is like a quilt with cotton wadding but the real thing that keeps you warm is your own temperature It is really true We have to work hard together with our friends encourage each other and help each other When we receive love and friendship we should repay as much as we can Finally let s pray together now that one day all of us could find the person we want to find and could enjoy a real beautiful friendship in our lives Let s pray the flower of friendship be tween our friends and us would always bloom brightly in our hearts Qing Ming Festival and Its Origin Qing Ming which means clear and bright in Chinese falls on April 5th this year It is both the fifth term in the traditional lunar 第 5 页 共 10 页 calendar and a festival to hold memorial ceremony for the dead It is a time to express one s grief for his lost relatives An ancient elegiac poem which described a grievous woman was read that vines tangled in vain and weeds crept in the graveyard and her husband slept there lonely It was so difficult to endure for her as if summer in the day and winter at night And her only wish was to reunite with him after death People often go to sweep and weed graves with whole family and take a walk in the countryside as well In Tang Dynasty the habit of taking an excursion on this day was developed At this time spring returns and dominates the earth again The feel of growing life is in the air with sap ascending in trees and buds bursting And the willow branches inserted on each gate add vigor and vitality to the surroundings But it actually means more than that This custom can be traced back to over one thousand years ago 第 6 页 共 10 页 During the Period of Spring and Autumn in the JinKingdom one of the King s sons was called Chong Er Jealous of his talent a concubine falsely accused him of rebellion to make her son the crown prince He had no choice but to flee and with him were some officials They hid themselves in a mountain and went hungry for quite some time An official named Jie Zitui took great pain to cut some flesh from his thigh and cooked it for Chong Er When the fact was known the young master was moved to tears and knelt down in gratitude And Jie replied his best repayment should be a just king They lived a life of hunger and cold for three years until the evil concubine died Many soldiers were sent to look for him and to escort him back home Going into the carriage he saw an official packed an old mat onto a horse he said laughingly What on earth is the use of that Throw it away Jie Zitui heard it and sighed It is hardship that can be shared 第 7 页 共 10 页 with his majesty but not prosperity So he went away quietly and lived in seclusion with his old mother As Chong Er became king he rewarded many people but he forgot Jie Zitui He did not realize it until was reminded However his invitation was refused and he flared up Soldiers were ordered to burn up the mountain to force Jie to come out Finally they found Jie and his mother scorched under a willow He would rather die than yield to the power Chong Er was so overwhelmed with regret that he ordered people hold memorial ceremony for Jie So every year on that day folks mourned for him and the day before ate cold meals which avoided making fire Later the custom of inserting willow branches on gates was also added Olympic Games is window I keep watch This is a maximum window had been rubbed bright Through it those that see are worlds Here it is
