1 The First Snow 第一场雪
The first snow came. How beautiful it was, falling so silently all day long, all night long, on the mountains, on the meadows, on the roofs of the living, on the graves of the dead! All white save the river, that marked its course by a winding black line across the landscape; and the leafless trees, that against the leaden sky now revealed more fully the wonderful beauty and intricacies of their branches. What silence, too, came with the snow, and what seclusion! Every sound was muffled, every noise changed to something soft and musical. No more tramping hoofs, no more rattling wheels! Only the chiming of the sleigh-bells, beating as swift and merrily as the hearts of children.
第一场雪来了。它是多么美丽啊，静静的日夜下着，在山间，在草地，在屋顶上的生活，在死者的坟墓上!所有白色的雪拯救了河流，一道曲曲弯弯的黑线在那整个画面上划出了记号，叶儿落光的树木的枝杈映衬着铅灰色天空显得更加的美丽和错综复杂。多么的安静啊，伴随着雪，还是多么的隐秘啊!一切声响都趋于沉寂，一切噪音都变得柔和悦耳了。没有步行声，没有响的咔哒咔哒的轮子声!只有雪橇铃铛的响声,敲打着犹如孩子们欢快的心。
2 My Holiday Plan 我的寒假计划
The winter holiday is coming. I am very excited. I want to better my holiday plan. Now let me tell you my plan.
I’m going to read some books and listen to music and relax for a few days first. On the fifth day, I’m going to do my homework. Of course, I’m also going to do some housework. Lunar New Year’s Day, I’m going to take a trip with my parents. I think it must be very happy. I can hardly wait! In the first six days of February, I’m going to visit my relatives. It’s going to be fun! After a few days, I’m going to finish my homework, because I am going back to my school on February 16th.
寒假就要来了，我很兴奋。我想要完善我的寒假计划，现在给你们讲讲我的计划。
假期刚开始的几天我打算先看些书，听听音乐放松一下。在十五天的时候，我会开始做寒假作业。当然，我还打算帮着做些家务活。农历新年的那天，我将会和爸爸妈妈出来旅游。我想寒假一定会过得很开心，我已经等不及了。 在二月的头六天里，我还打算去拜访我们的亲友。这一定会很好玩！在之后的几天里我会完成我们的寒假作业，因为二月十六日我就得回校读书了。
