1:一朵玫瑰花
有位绅士在花店门口停了车，他打算向花店订一束花，请他们送去给远在故乡的母亲。
绅士正要走进店门时，发现有个小女孩坐在路上哭，绅士走到小女孩面前问她说：
「孩子，为什么坐在这里哭？」
「我想买一朵玫瑰花送给妈妈，可是我的钱不够。」孩子说。绅士听了感到心疼。
「这样啊......」于是绅士牵著小女孩的手走进花店，先订了要送给母亲的花束，然后给小女孩买了一朵玫瑰花。走出花店时绅士向小女孩提议，要开车送她回家。
「真的要送我回家吗？」
「当然啊！」
「那你送我去妈妈那里好了。可是叔叔，我妈妈住的地方，离这里很远。」
「早知道就不载你了。」绅士开玩笑地说。
绅士照小女孩说的一直开了过去，没想到走出市区大马路之后，随著蜿蜒山路前行，竟然来到了墓园。小女孩把花放在一座新坟旁边，她为了给一个月前刚过世的母 亲，献上一朵玫瑰花，而走了一大段远路。绅士将小女孩送回家中，然后再度折返花店。他取消了要寄给母亲的花束，而改买了一大束鲜花，直奔离这里有五小时车程的母亲家中，他要亲自将花献给妈妈。

善尽孝心。一个感人的爱情故事(英文版)可以看看：）~~

A girl and a boy were on a motorcycle, speeding through the night.They loved each other a lot..
Girl:" Slow down a little.. I'm scared.."
Boy: "No, it's so fun.."
Girl: "Please... it's so scary.."
Boy: "Then say that you love me.."
Girl: "Fine..I love you..Can you slow down now?"
Boy: "Give me a big hug.."The girl gave him a big hug.
Girl: "Now can you slow down?"
Boy: "Can you take off my helmet and put it on? It's uncomfortable and?It's bothering me while I drive."
The next day, there was a story in the newspaper. a motorcycle had crashed into a building because its brakes were broken. There were two people on the motorcycle, of which one died, and the other had survived...
The guy knew that the brakes were broken. He didn't want to let the
girl know, because he knew that the girl would have gotten scared.
Instead, he was told the last time that she loved him, got a hug from her,put his helmet on her so that she can live, and die himself...
Once in awhile, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale.

那位农夫的目光透过他的方框眼镜凝视在种子上,他耐心地数着种子数目。他的得数是一磅大麦子有8925粒，一磅红色三叶草种子有71000粒。然后他仔细地数了梯牧草的微小种子。他知道了一磅梯牧草有298000粒！

除了这位农民，从来也没有人劳神费心地去数种子粒数。乔治．华盛顿为什么要做这种事呢?原来他是想了解需要播种多少磅种子才能使庄稼长到他要求的密度。

华盛顿的邻居们依照习惯和大概的估计来做每一件事。可是他们的农庄经营得不利。做为农民的华盛顿想确切知道播种的最佳时间，犁地的适当深度和饲养出品种更优秀的牛和猪的方法。当时是不存在可供写信咨询的农业部的，所以华盛顿只好自己来找出答案。他象科学家搞科学实验似的观察、测量、比较和验证新的设想。

200年以前，许多美国农民总是处于不断迁移状态之中，向西，再向西。他们发现买一英亩生地比为一块熟地施肥更便宜。可是华盛顿却热爱他已有的土地，尽管他的土地大部分很贫瘠，他下决心要改进他在弗吉尼亚拥有的大农场，它有8000英亩土地。

种植先驱

当时华盛顿的弗农山农场是由五个农场构成的。其中一个是他的“宅地”农场，那里有美丽的大厦，青青的草坪和蔽日的林木。

在他买下的与此相邻的四个农场上，好土大都被雨水冲刷到河里去了。在这些农场里过去只种过烟草。由于年复一年地种植同一种作物，土质变得很贫瘠。

华盛顿构思出一个挽救他的土壤的计划。他每年都变换每块土地上的作物。他希望用这种轮种作物的方法保持土质肥沃以使其适合耕作。

华盛顿坐到桌子旁边，拿起纸张、铅笔、指南针和尺子。他面前铺着一张他亲自精心绘制的农场的地图。他划分土地，为每一块土地计划出作物轮种的计划。

第一年他种小麦消耗土地中的养料。所以，第二年他种荞麦，而且把它翻耕到土里。然后他又种一次小麦。

此后，他用三年时间种草和三叶草，用来喂养牛和羊。从牛肉、羊肉、牛奶和黄油里他赚回了本钱。

华盛顿计划每七年轮回一次各种作物。第七年他种玉米和土豆。然后他又从头开始种小麦。

现在的农民可能会发现华盛顿计划中的不合理部分。但是重要的问题是华盛顿真的轮种了庄稼。在他的邻居们把土地种毁了的时候，他是一名科学耕作法的先驱者。

具有创造力的农民

华盛顿首先在北美试验了一行一行地播种小麦，而不是仅仅把小麦撒播得遍地都是。华盛顿还发明了一种犁地和播种的联合机械。把种子装进一个有孔的桶里，把桶放到犁铧的后面，桶随着犁铧移动，旋转起来，从引洞里摇落出种子。

最初这种器械的许多部件都不对头，可是华盛顿耐心地解决了所有的问题。他发现不能把桶装得太满，否则种子会堵住孔洞。他决定把孔洞弄成漏斗形，象是一个锥状物。孔洞大的一面朝桶外，这样种子就不容易阴塞了。

牲畜饲养者

华盛顿对农场的畜牧业也感兴趣。有一次他听说西班牙的骡子适于挽重，他就请美国驻马德里的大使给他运来一些骡子。当时把骡子运往国外是违反西班牙法律的。可是因为乔治．华盛顿是一位非常知名的外国人,西班牙国王就破了一次例。因而美国的第一任总统就成了首先将骡子引入美国农业的人。

“泥洞”专家

华盛顿心爱的农场中有一个名叫“泥洞”。大雨将这里的肥沃土壤冲刷到了低地里。华盛顿明白这种柔软、粘糊的土壤还可以再一次生长出好庄稼。所以，他一年又一年地把这种烂泥从低地里拉上来，倒回到雨水曾把它们从那里“偷走”的土地上。据一位访问者说，华盛顿曾多次举起酒杯祝酒说：“祝这些烂泥成功。”

植树人

美国荒野莽原里的果树深深地吸引了华盛顿，一位植物学家从伊利诺伊州南部给他带来了美洲山核桃，华盛顿因此而成为第一位种植这种深受欢迎的美洲坚果的美国农民。他当年亲手栽下的这种果树，现在有三棵还枝繁叶茂。

今天，弗农山的五个农场大部分的景貌已经无复旧观了。所有的谷仓都不见了，“乔治·华盛顿”磨精麦粉的磨房也已几乎荡然无存了。但是有一件事物是永存的。那就是对华盛顿本人的记忆。他是一位拥有一长串头衔的人物。我们可以回忆起土地测量员华盛顿，华盛顿将军或者华盛顿总统。但是任何头衔在他看来都不如“农民乔治．华盛顿”更显赫。
The famer peered through his square eyeglasses and patiently counted the seeds.There are 8925 seeds to a pound of barley,he concluded.Counting red clover seeds,he figured 71,000 to the pound.Then,carefully,he counted the small seeds of to timothy.He figured 298,000 of the pound!

No one else had bothered to make these counts.Why did George Whashington make them?He needed to know how many pounds to sow to get each crop as thick as he wanted it.

Washington's neighbors did everything by custom or by"rule of thumb."But his neibors weren't making their farms pay.Farmer Washington wanted to know the best time to plant,hoe deep to plow,how to raise better cows and pigs.There was no Department of Agricuture to write .So he had to find out for himself.He went about it as a scientist does:observing,measuring,comparing,tesing new ideas.

Two hundred years ago,many American farmers were always moving on,farther and farther west.They found it cheaper to buy a new acre than to fertilise an old one.But Georage Washington loved the land he had,poor as much of it was.He was dermined to improve his large farm of 8000 acres in Virginia.

Pioneer in Planting

Mount Vernon was then five farms.One was his"homehouse"farm,with a beautiful mansion,lawns and shade trees.

On the four neighboring farms he bought,much of the good soil had been washed away into the river.Only tobacco had been grown on these farms.The soil had become poor from having the same crop grown on it year after year.

Washington had a plan to save his soil.Every year he would change the crops grown in each field.With this system of crop rotation,he hoped to keep the soil good for farming.

Washington sat down with paper and pencil,compass and ruler.Before him was his own fine map of his fams.He divided up his fields and planned his rotations for each plot of land.

The first year he planted wheat .But wheat exhausts the soil.So the next year he planted buckwheat,and plowed it under.Then he followed with another wheat crop.

After that,for three years he sowed the land to grass and clover.He used the grass and clover as food for his cows and sheep.And he got his money back in beef and mutton,milk and butter.

Washington planned to rotate his crops for seven years.The last crop he plantrf was corn and potatoes.Then he began all over again,with wheat.

The farmer of today might find things wrong in Washington's plan.But the important thing is that Washington did rotate his crops.He was a pioneer at a time when his neighbors were ruining their fields.

Inventive Farmer

Washington expermented with planting wheat in rows instead of just throwing it here and there.And he invented a combined plow and seeder.The seed went into a barrel with holes in it. As it moved along behind the plow,the barrel revolved and shok out the seeds through the holes.

At first,lots of things were wrong with this invention,but Washington patiently ironed them out.You mustn't fill the barrel too full,he found,or the seeds would choke the holes.He decided to make the holes funnel-shaped,like a cone.So,by having the larger opening of the hole on the outside of the barrel,the seeds wrer less likely to jam.

Raiser of Animals

Farm animals interested Washington,too.Open he heard that mules from Spain were excellent for pulling heavy loads.He asked the American ambassador in Madrid to send him some mules.At that time it was against Spanish law to send mules to another country.But the King of Spain made an exception in the case of so famous a foreigner as Geoge Washington.Thus,our first President became the first man to introduce mules into our agriculture.

Master of "Muddy Hole"

One of Washington's favorite farms was called"Muddy Hole".Heavy rains had washed the rich soil into the farm's lowlands.Washington knew that this soft,stickly earth could once again produce good crops.Year after year,he dragged up the mud and poured it back on the land from which the rains had stolen it.Many a time,according to a visitor,Washington would raise his glass and say,"Success to the mud."

Planter of Trees

Fruits of the American wilderness fascinated Washington.A botanist brought him pecans from southern Illionis,and Washington became the first farmer to cultivate this popular American nut.Three of the trees set out by his hand are still standing.

Today much is gone from Mount Vernon's five farms.All the barns are gone,and there is almost nothing of the mill where"G.Washington"ground fine flour.But sth will never be gone.It is the memoryof G.Washington,himself.He was a man with a long list of titles.We may think of him as Surveyor,General or President.But he counted no title so high as this one:"G.Washington,Farmer."

I LOVE ENGLISH
Dear teacher and classmates:
I am very glad to make a speech here in this class again! This time, I\'d like to talk something about English.
I love English. English language is now used everywhere in the world. It has become the most common language on Internet and for international trade. Learning English makes me confident and brings me great pleasure.
When I was seven, my mother sent me to an English school. At there, I played games and sang English songs with other children . Then I discovered the beauty of the language, and began my colorful dream in the English world.
Everyday, I read English following the tapes. Sometimes, I watch English cartoons.
On the weekend, I often go to the English corner. By talking with different people there, I have made more and more friends as well as improved my oral English.
I hope I can travel around the world someday. I want to go to America to visit Washington Monument, because the president Washington is my idol. Of course, I want to go to London too, because England is where English language developed. If I can ride my bike in Cambridge university, I will be very happy.
I hope I can speak English with everyone in the world. I\'ll introduce China to them, such as the Great Wall, the Forbidden City and Anshan.
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.
