Planting Trees

It was fine on March 12 ， 2001 . I got up early that day . All the students in our school went to the hill to plant trees .

We arrived at the hill at eight o'clock . The teacher asked each of us to plant at least six trees . Then we started digging ， planting and watering . We all worked so hard that we could finish our tasks ahead of tim e . Among us ， Wang Lin ， our monitor set a good example for us . Though he was ill ， he worked harder . When he finished his task ， he went on to help others without even a little rest . He was wet all over after work .“ I must learn from him ，” I said to myself . Looking at the lines of the young trees ， we smiled happily ， forgetting our tiredness .

How to Improve Your English Reading 如何提高你的英语阅读水平

To improve your English reading， you should， first of all， choose something you feel important or interesting to read. Don't try to read everything. You should begin with those written in simple English. Don't read those which prove difficult for you at the very beginning.

While reading， don't read too slowly or look up every new word you meet with. After reading a passage and having its main idea in mind， you may turn back and read it again. This time you read it slowly and look up some new words if necessary.

Keep on reading in this way and you'll surely make progress little by little.

你喜欢哪种方式的旅行？Which Mode of Travel Do You like？

Directions： For this part you are allowed thirty minutes to write a composition on the topic Which Mode of Travel Do You like？ You should write no less than 150 words and base your composition on the outline （given in Chinese） below：

With the general standard of living improving and the working week becoming shorter， more and more people are able to make a holiday trip to places of interest. While many like to join package tours fro convenience， I prefer to travel on my own.

I like travelling on may own not only because it costs much less but because it gives a great degree of independence and freedom. Travelling on my own， I'm my own boss； and can decide when to start on my way， where to linger a little longer and which spot can be skipped over to save energy or time for another spot. I can always adjust my plan. On the contrary， in a package tour you're deprived of as much freedom as in a military base. At the sound of the whistle， you have to jump up from a sound sleep and， with heavy-lidded eyes， hurry to the gathering place where you are collected and counted to board a coach. At the sight of the little flag waving， you must immediately take yourself away from the scenes you are marveling at and follow the guide whose sole interest is to cover all spots according to him strict schedule， regardless of the weather or your health condition.

True， you may encounter inconveniences if you travel inpidually， for instance， getting accommodations for the night and finding a place for meals. But nothing can be compared with the freedom which is vital to a person who takes a holiday trip mainly to escape from constraints of his routine life.

Learning to Play the Piano 我学弹钢琴

When I was a child, I was fascinated by the melody of piano on the screen. At that time, I dreamed of being a pianist and having my own piano.

At the age of five, my father bought me a beautiful piano as my birthday present with the money they had saved for a long time. At the same time, my father found a piano teacher for me and every day I would practise it again and again as my father demanded. Before long, my interest in piano was transferred to other things. I began to escape the practice as much as I could. My father found out my impatience. He encouraged me and was stricter with me than ever before. With his help, I underwent the hardest time and devoted myself to the piano.

Now, in my spare time after a long time of study and hard work, I always play the piano and enjoy the beautiful music.

I began to escape the practice as much as I could. It was my father that encouraged me and accompanied me at that time. With his help, I underwent the hardest time and devoted myself to the piano at last.

At present in my spare time when I finish my work or when I have a break in my work, I always play the piano and enjoy the beautiful melody.
