If I Were Given One Day Off If I were given ond day off I would like to have the "luxury" to wander a whole day around with my daughter. I had once experienced a half day taking my daughter to see the doctor and she always asked me when she can be sick again. Oberviously she enjoyed that half day very much so I want to satisfy her. I will let her wake up natuarally and take her time to have breakfirst instead of saying "Hurry up you are gonna be late for school!" Then I will take her to the Olimpic Park and have a walk there hand in hand. We will be having a conversation while eating her fovarite ice cream under the big tree shade. We will be eating out , maybe Italy pizza maybe hamburgs. Then in the afternoon we will go window shopping or watch a funny movie in the cinema eating popcorn. I believe those common pleasure will be the fondest memories to both my daughter and me.

The First Film I watched I still remember the amazing experience that I first time watched the film in the cinema. It was with my dad. He kept his promise that if I got a good marks in exams he would take me to watch the film in the cinema. The film's name is . The plot is about a young man whose father was killed by a general. The general is also the person who betrayed the Tang Emperor. The young man escaped to Shaolin temple, learned kungfu and set out to kill the traitor. With the helps of all the monks, he succeeded. He also saved the true emperor and got the great rewards from the emperor. The young man is acted by Jet Lee, my favorite actor, and that is his first film.

I feel sorry to my mum This morning I did a thing that I regret most. Two days ago I bought some pomegranates and told my mum to eat, which I think it is good to her health. Today they are still on the table,not even one lessened. I complained about it, while my mum was complainting one of pomegranate was rotten. She always was apt to complaint what I bought was rotten. Sometimes it was the truth, while most times it was because she saved them for other family members and didn't eat before they are rotten. I hate this. I got angry then I did what I regret most - I picked up the pomegranate which she said I didn't buy rightly and threw it heavily to the floor. The big pomegranate cracked and deep purple red seeds were rolling all over the floor. I regret immediately and wished I Icould undo what I did. My mum was astonished and then cried. She let me buy a train ticket for her to return to her hometown. I told her I felt sorry but she was still sobbing when I left for work. I was really regreting for my bad temper. I should control it but I didn't. I confess I am stressed recently. I easily vented it to my mum my closed loved person. I hurt my mum. I don't know how to comfort her.

A Car Jouney I went on Last year in Nation Day holiday I went to Inner Mongolia with my family: my husband, my 4-year-old daughter and 64-year-old mother. We travelled by car because we thought it was convenient and flexible. Speaking of this jouney, it was really spontaneous. We usually didn't go on trips during China's national holidays for they were all high seasons. I rember that morning when we were having breakfirst and I asked how about going to Inner Mongolia to see the praries, all the family member agreed. Then my husband sat on front of the wall with a China Map planed the route while I searched on internet some tourist attactions, we set out at noon. It took us about 5 hours to cross the province line and arrive in Inner Mongolia. I was astonished by the amzaing scenery. If you know I just escaped from Beijing - one of the most crowded cities in the word and it was the first time in my life to see the prairies you can immagine how I was impressed by the infinity and beauty of the prairies: waves of plain, seas of grass, rolling hills, wild nameless flowers and flocks of sheep and horses. Above the paries towers the blue sky, clean and clear. There is no place to hide, no shade except for the shade of the snowy clouds. My daughter and I could not help running and rolling on the grass. Even my old mother couldn't help jumping high. I was also very lucky to see the spectacular sunset on the prairies. The sun went down in a blaze of red while the waxing moon shined in the deep blue twilight. The horizon was wearing a golden ring. We drove about 300km every day. We stopped every now and then to enjoy the scenery. But every time I thought I had seen the most splendid scenery the more marvellous view would present in front of us. This particular car journey really impressed me and important to me. That is the first time for me and my family to see the broad praries and every time when I am depressed I would think of the broad praries and seem to have a mind as broad as the prairies.

I this sentence make any sense? "A restless heart is destined to seek the comfort in the wandering in an alien land"

The Person I Admire Most The person I admire most is Jack Ma -  the founder and executive chairman of China's largest e-commerce business, Alibaba Group. Jack Ma succeeded in taking Alibaba Group to the biggest IPO(Initial Public Offerings) in US. I particularly admire him for starting out as an English teacher earlier in his life with no technical background, but great foresight, ambition, and determination. You are never going to believe this but Jack was a former English teacher by training. He discovered the internet on a trip to America when a friend showed him a computer and told him to type something in to a web directory. He typed in the word BEER, and realized that there is a wealth of information on American Beer, German Beer, beer from many different countries but nothing on Chinese beer. This is the inception point for shifting his career into technology, into internet. He foresaw the unlimited possibility in internet in China and determined to founder Alibaba. He set out ambitious long-term goals from the beginning. He said early on that he wanted to build one of the top ten websites in the world, one which would serve all business people. He wanted to build a company that would last 103 years and span 3 centuries.(His comany began in 1999) Then the rest thing is persistence. When they were facing many difficulties such as unemployment, finance dificiency at the early stage, when the future was uncertain to ups and downs at the company's growing stage, he just focused on his dream, chased it, persisted in it and never gave up. My main learning from watching Jack is that sometimes those ideals of defining a long-time vision really do come true when you stick to it.

Describe the Picture “Vase with 12 Sunflowers” When I was in my middle school there was a picture hanging on the wall outside our classroom. It was an oil paiting. The content is very simple: A yellow vase with 12 yellow sunflowers on a yellow table on a blue-green background. The top half of the vase was bright yellow and the bottom half was dull dark yellow. There was a small signature of "Vincent" on the middle of the vase. Yes, the paiting was painted by the great Dutch artist - Vincent Van Gogh in 1988. The 12 flowers were pointing all over the place. Some in golden yellow were vivid, full of life, while some in dark yellow were smeared, dying. They showed the all stages of sunflowers from full blooming to withering also resembled the short lifetime of Vincent - his lust and passion for life and art and his depression and suffering in life. This paiting is not only a mock of reality but also an expression of mental world.

The Country I Want To Visit But Not Have Been To Yet There are a lot of countries I would like to visit. But the one I really want to vist the most is the Netherlands. Netherlands is a small country but densely populated for its size. It is located in the northwestern Europe. It borders Germany on the east, Belgium on the south and the North Sea on the northwest. It is a low level country with the country even sea level 1 meter above the sea level, which is the reason why it is called the Netherlands. I love this coutry for its windmills, colorful tulips, rural landscapes and also its liberal cultrue. But those are not the real reasons I want to visit it so much. I dream to visit this country due to it had born a great artist---Vincent Van Gogh. I am a huge fan of Vincent not only because I like his paintings but also I appreciate him as a human being with so pure and beatiful heart. I want to go to Vincent's hometown. I want to see the house he lived in, the golden wheatfields where he began to paint with my own eyes. I want to have a sit in the church that was painted in his paitings for myself. I want to walk on the path that he walked on with my own feet. I will visit it in the near future, definitely.
