The Feast of Christmas
It is not easy to pin-point the origins of the Christmas feast, today the more important feast of the Christmas season in most western Christian churches. One can only say for certain that the birth of Jesus Christ was being celebrated in Rome by the year 336 A.D.; afterwards the feast was celebrated in other Christian churches throughout the world.

Why it was celebrated on December 25th is another question. No date for the birth of Jesus can be found in the New Testament, which is concerned more with the question "Who is Jesus?" than the date of his birth. Early Christian speculation about his birth date was influenced by the symbolism of the changing seasons, then popular in religious thought, which paid careful attention to the equinoxes and solstices of the sun. Christian scholars speculated that Jesus was conceived at the spring equinox (March 25th) and therefore was born on December 25th, the date of the winter solstice.

In many of the Christian churches, March 25th is still the Feast of the Annunciation, when the Angel Gabriel announced to Mary that she was to be the mother of Jesus.

Possible impluse for the feast of Christmas may have came too from the establishment of the pagan feast of the "Unconquered Sun-God" by the Emperor Aurelian in 274 A.D. to be celebrated on December 25, the day of the winter solstice in Rome and throughout the empire. In response, Christians could celebrate the feast of the "Sun of righteousness" (Malachi 4,2), Jesus Christ, who called himself " the light of the world."

To the Chinese people it is as important as Christmas to people in the West. The dates for this annual celebration are determined by the lunar calendar rather than the Gregorian calendar, so the timing of the holiday varies from late January to early February.
To the ordinary Chinese, the festival actually begins on the eve of the lunar New Year's Day and ends on the fifth day of the first month of the lunar calendar. But the 15th of the first month, which normally is called the Lantern Festival, means the official end of the Spring Festival in many parts of the country.翻譯： 總的來說在中國最重要的節日是春節,亦稱中國新年。對中國人民來說它的重要性就如方聖誕節對於西方人民。這個一年一次的節日日期取決於陰歷而不是格里歷，因此假日的時間變化從一月下旬到上旬2月。對普通的中國人，節日總是在除夕夜開始,結束於陰歷的第一個月的第五天。 但1第一個月的15號，通常稱燈會，在國家的大部分地區意味春節的正式結尾。

While I was free, I was writing my homework. Although I also have a lot of time to do my homework, I still do it. Because in my mother』s office, I had nothing to do.

We should take good use of our time 這是第三天我們的寒假。今天, 有許多事務在我的母親』s 公司。如此我的母親勸告我幫助是我的母親的經理的我的伯父』s 公司。我坐了在我的母親』s 辦公室和幫助她的答復電話。當我是自由的, 我寫著我的家庭作業。雖然我並且有很多時間做我的家庭作業, 我仍然做它。由於在我的母親』s 辦公室, 我有沒什麼做。如果我做了沒什麼, 我浪費我的時間和我的生活。我能』t 做愚蠢事。我們應該採取對我們的時間的好用途。

5、The Old Cat
An old woman had a cat. The cat was very old; she could not run quickly, and she could not bite, because she was so old. One day the old cat saw a mouse; she jumped and caught the mouse. But she could not bite it; so the mouse got out of her mouth and ran away, because the cat could not bite it.

Then the old woman became very angry because the cat had not killed the mouse. She began to hit the cat. The cat said, "Do not hit your old servant. I have worked for you for many years, and I would work for you still, but I am too old. Do not be unkind to the old, but remember what good work the old did when they were young." 翻譯：老貓

一位老婦有隻貓，這只貓很老，它跑不快了，也咬不了東西，因為它年紀太大了。一天，老貓發現一隻老鼠，它跳過去抓這只老鼠，然而，它咬不住這只老鼠。因此，老鼠從它的嘴邊溜掉了，因為老貓咬不了它。

於是，老婦很生氣，因為老貓沒有把老鼠咬死。她開始打這只貓，貓說：「不要打你的老僕人，我已經為你服務了很多年，而且還願意為你效勞，但是，我實在太老了，對年紀大的不要這么無情，要記

住老年人在年青時所做過的有益的事情。」 6、 A man was going to the house of some rich person. As he went along the road, he saw a box of good apples at the side of the road. He said, "I do not want to eat those apples; for the rich man will give me much food; he will give me very nice food to eat." Then he took the apples and threw them away into the st.

He went on and came to a river. The river had become very big; so he could not go over it. He waited for some time; then he said, "I cannot go to the rich man's house today, for I cannot get over the river."

He began to go home. He had eaten no food that day. He began to want food. He came to the apples, and he was glad to take them out of the st and eat them.

Do not throw good things away; you may be glad to have them at some other time. 翻譯：一個人正朝著一個富人的房子走去，當他沿著路走時，在路的一邊他發現一箱好蘋果，他說：「我不打算吃那些蘋果，因為富人會給我更多的食物，他會給我很好吃的東西。」然後他拿起蘋果，一把扔到土裡去。

他繼續走，來到河邊，河漲水了，因此，他到不了河對岸，他等了一會兒，然後他說：「今天我去不了富人家了，因為我不能渡過河。」

他開始回家，那天他沒有吃東西。他就開始去找吃的，他找到蘋果，很高興地把它們從塵土中翻出來吃了。

For a long time while they were walking home through the rain， the boy was thinking． Then at last he turned to his father and said to him，「Why does it rain， Father？ It isn't very nice， is it？」
「No， it isn't very nice， but it's very useful，Tom，」answered his father．「It rains to make the fruit and the vegetables grow for us， and to make the grass grow for the cows and sheep．」
Tom thought about this for a few seconds， and then he said，「Then，why does it rain on the road too， Father？」

「是呀，下雨是不太好，可是下雨也有很多有益的地方，湯姆。」父親回答說。「老天爺下雨促使了為我們所食用的水果和蔬菜的生長，同樣也促使牛羊所吃的青草的生長。」
湯姆對父親的這番話想了一會，然後說：「那麼，父親，老天爺為什麼還要把雨下在路上呢？」

「Why, this is the way, of course,」 said the mother, as she started off to the right, 「No, this is the way,」 said she, as she made another attempt, to the left.

「為什麼，這是方法，當然，說： 」媽媽，因為她開始起飛的權利， 「不，這是道路， 」她說，由於她作出的又一次嘗試，到左邊。
小蟹笑了。 「當你學習做自己，您可以教導我， 」他說，他回到他的發揮。 9、The Wolf and The Crane

One day a Wolf, who was eating his dinner much too fast, swallowed a bone, which stuck in his throat and pained him very much. He tried to get it out, but could not.
Just then he saw a Crane passing by. 「Dear fiend,」 said he to the Crane, 「 there is a bone sticking in my throat. You have a good long neck; can't you reach down and pull it out? I will pay you well for it.」 「I'll try,」 said the Crane. Then he put his head into the Wolf』s mouth, between his sharp teeth, and reaching down, pulled out bone. 「There!」 said the Wolf, 「I am glad it is out; I must be more careful another time.」 「I will go now, if you will pay me,」 said the Crane.
「Pay you, indeed!」 cried the Wolf. 「Be thankful that I did not bite your head off when it was in my mouth. You ought to be content with that.」

「支付給您，的確！ 」哭狼來了。 「心存感激，我並沒有咬你的頭上時，這是在我嘴裡。你應該得到的內容與「 。

10、The Wolf and the Crane
A WOLF who had a bone stuck in his throat hired a Crane, for a large sum, to put her head into his mouth and draw out the bone. When the Crane had extracted the bone and demanded the promised payment, the Wolf, grinning and grinding his teeth, exclaimed:
Why, you have surely already had a sufficient recompense, in having been permitted to draw out your head in safety from the mouth and jaws of a wolf." In serving the wicked, expect no reward, and be thankful if you escape injury for your pains.
翻譯：狼與鷺鷥狼誤吞下了一塊骨頭，十分難受，四處奔走，尋訪醫生。他遇見了鷺鷥，談定酬金請他取出骨頭，鷺鷥把自己的頭伸進狼的喉嚨里，叼出了骨頭，便向狼要定好的酬金。狼回答說：「喂，朋友，你能從狼嘴裡平安無事地收回頭來，難道還不滿足，怎麼還要講報酬？」 這故事說明，對壞人行善的報酬，就是認識壞人不講信用的本質

G. 初一上冊英語美文十篇

The early snows fall soft and white and seem to heal the landscape. There are as yet no tracks through the drifts, no muddied slush in the roads. The wind sweeps snow into the scars of our harvest-time haste, smoothing the brow of hill, hiding furrow and cog and trash in the yard. Snow muffles the shriek of metal and the rasp of motion. It covers our flintier purposes and brings a redeeming silence, as if a curtain has fallen on the strivings of a year, and now we may stop, look inward, and rediscover the amber warmth of family and conversation.
輕盈、潔白的雪花紛紛揚揚，這場初雪似乎在撫慰大地。至今積雪上還沒有任何足跡，道路上也沒有踏臟的雪泥。朔風掃過，白雪覆蓋了人們豐收農忙之後的痕跡——它撫平了山脊，藏匿了院內的車轍和輪齒，讓雜物都無影無蹤。大雪還消減了金屬摩擦發出的刺耳聲和機器運轉時的嘈雜聲，它在埋沒我們堅韌決心的同時，又彌補般地降臨了一種靜謐，宛如一年的努力落下帷幕，就此告一段落。——現在我們也許應該駐足，審視內心，重新感受親人團聚的溫馨。
At such times, locked away inside wall and woolen, lulled by the sedatives of wood-smoke and candlelight, we recall the competing claims of nature. We see the branch and bark of trees, rather than the sugar-scented green of their leaves. We look out the window and admire the elegance of ice crystal, the bravely patient tree leaning leafless into the wind, the dramatic shadows of the stooping sun. We look at the structure of things, the geometry of branch and snowflake, family and deed.
在這樣的時節里，我們緊閉房門，裹上毛衣，沐浴在木材燃燒和燭光帶來的祥和之中，回想大自然中的兩種悖論。我們看到的是樹木的枝杈和樹皮，而不是芬芳撲鼻的綠葉；我們望著窗外，驚嘆冰晶的美不勝收，欽佩光禿禿的樹枝始終迎風而立，贊美落日的身影楚楚動人；我們觀察著事物的結構、樹枝與雪花的形狀，還有家庭、事業……
Even before the first snow, we view the world differently in winter. We watch the lawn settle into the sleep of frost and the last crumpled leaf quiver on the oak, and feel the change. At night the skies are cold and clear, and stars shine like the dreams of serpents. The hillsides turn brown and gray; the edges of stalk and blade stand out starkly. Dark clouds settle on the mountain ridges. Storms rumble in like freight trains. Rain rattles the roof and thutters at the window.
其實在冬天，在下第一場雪之前，我們看世界的感覺就不同。我們注意到草地早已習慣在霜凍中沉睡，最後一片打著卷兒的橡樹葉在枝頭顫抖，並體會到了季節的變更。晚空清冷而明朗，繁星閃爍，就像魔鬼打起了盹。山坡被染成了棕灰色，葉子與葉柄的邊緣顯得格外醒目。山脊上烏雲雲集，暴風雪就像貨車一樣隆隆作響。雨點不停地沖刷著房頂，敲打著窗戶。
Then comes the snow, and we once again wonder at how it transforms the familiar objects of our everyday world.
接著，下雪了，我們又一次驚詫於它是如何將我們平常熟知的事物改頭換面。
When snowflake drifts the road we head indoors and resign ourselves to the quiet crackle of the wood fire. The example of the woodpile and the well-stocked larder tells us that we can achieve what we dream, and winter brings us long, silent nights to dream on.
當雪花在路面堆積，我們回到屋內，讓自己沉迷在爐火輕微的噼啪聲中。柴堆和儲備良好的食物表明我們可以美美睡上一覺了。而冬日帶來的是寧靜的漫漫長夜，正好入夢。

3 風和太陽(The Wind And The Sun)
One day the wind said to the sun, 「Look at that man walking along the road. I can get his cloak off more quickly than you can.」
「We will see about that,」 said the sun. 「I will let you try first.」
So the wind tried to make the man take off his cloak. He blew and blew, but the man only pulled his cloak more closely around himself.
「I give up,」 said the wind at last. 「I cannot get his cloak off.」 Then the sun tried. He shone as hard as he could. The man soon became hot and took off his cloak.
(有一天風跟太陽說: 「看看那個沿著路上走的人.我可以比你快讓他把披風脫下來.)
(「我們等著看吧,」太陽說, 「我讓你先試.)
(因此風嘗試讓那個人把披風脫下來.他用力地吹,可是那個人把披風拉得更緊.)
(「我放棄了,」風最後說, 「我無法讓他把披風脫下來.」然後由太陽試試看.他盡可能地曬他.不久,那個人很熱就把披風脫下來了.)
4 THE NEWSPAPER 報 紙
Nowadays the newspaper possesses considerable value Everybody should read it. It supplies us with a variety of news every day. It tells us the political situation of the world. If we form the habit of reading the newspaper, we shall (will) get enough knowledge to cope with our circumstances.
現今報紙擁有極大的價值，人人都應該看它。它每天提供我們各種類類的消息。它告訴我們世界政治局勢。如果我們養成看報的習慣，我們就能得到足夠的知識來因應我們的環境。學生雖然每天須做功課，但他們至少應該勻出一兩個小時來看報。哪些，他們不但能增加知識而且也能趕上時代。總而言之，看報對學生很有益處。

5 MY DAILY LIFE 我的日常生活
Though my daily life is extremely monotonous, I try hard to adapt myself to it. Why? Because I intend to be a good student. I wish to render service to my country.
I get up at six o』clock every day. After I wash my face and brush my teeth, I begin to review my lessons. I go to school at seven o』clock.
After school is over, I return home. We usually have supper at seven o』clock.
Then I begin to do my homework. I want to finish it before I go to bed.
雖然我的日常生活十分單調，但我卻竭力設法去適應它。為什麼？因為我打算做一個好學生，希望將來為國家服務。
我每天六點起床、洗臉刷牙後，就開始復習功課，七點鍾我就去上學。
放學後，我就回家了。我們通常在七點鍾吃晚餐，之後我就開始做家庭作業，希望在睡覺前把它做完。

6 A MODEL STUDENT 模範學生
Do you mind being called a bad student? Of course not. So far as I know, everybody intends to be (become) a model student.
However, to be a model student is by no means an easy thing. First, he must do his best to obtain knowledge. A man without sufficient knowledge will not succeed. Secondly, he must remember to improve his health. Only a strong man can do great tasks. Thirdly, he should receive moral ecation. If his conct is not good, no one will consider making friends with him.
你價意被稱為壞學生嗎？當然不。就我所知，每個人都打算做模範學生。
然而，做模範學生卻不容易。第一，他必須盡力獲得知識（求知）。一個沒有足夠知識的人是不會成功的。第二，他必須記住促進健康。只有強壯的人才能做大事。第三，他應該接受道德教育。如果他品行不好，沒有人會考慮和他交朋友的。

7 HOW TO GET HAPPINESS 如何獲得快樂
There is no doubt that happiness is the most precious thing in the world. Without it, life will be empty and meaningless. If you wish to know how to get happiness, you must pay attention to the following two points.
First, health is the secret of happiness (the key to happiness). Only a strong man can enjoy the pleasure of life.
Secondly, happiness consists in contentment. A man who is dissatisfied with his present condition is always in distress.
無疑的快樂是世界上最寶貴的東西。沒有它，人生將是空虛的而且毫無意義的。如果你希望知道如何獲得快樂，你須注意下面兩點。
健康是快樂的要訣。唯有身體強壯的人才能享受人生的樂趣。
快樂在於知足。一個不滿於現狀的人終是處在痛苦之中。

8 BOOKS 書籍
As is well known, books teach us to learn life, truth, science and many other useful things. They increase our knowledge, broaden our minds and strengthen our character. In other words, they are our good teachers and wise friends. This is the reason why our parents always encourage us to read more books.
Reading is a good thing, but we must pay great attention to the choice of books. It is true that we can derive benefits from good books. However, bad books will do us more harm than good.
如眾所周知，書籍教我們學習人生，真理，科學以及其它許多有用的東西。它們增加我們的知識，擴大我們的心胸並加強我們的品格。換句話說，它們是我們的良師益友。這是為什麼我們的父母終是鼓勵我們要多讀書的理由。
讀書是一好事，但我們必須多加註意書的選擇。不錯，我們能從好書中獲得益處。然而，壞書卻對我們有害無益。

9 A TRIP TO THE COUNTRY 鄉村游記
One Sunday my mother (Mother) had (made) me take my little young brother to the a trip to the country. She bade me take good care of him.
While we were walking along the road, the sun was shining brightly and the breeze was blowing gently. We saw the beautiful flowers smile (smiling) at us and heard the birds sing (singing) their sweet songs on the trees. The scenery was indeed very pretty (beautiful).
When we felt tired, we returned home. We saw Mother (our mother) wait (waiting) for us at the door.
有一個星期日，我母親叫我帶小弟弟去鄉村游歷。她吩咐我要好好照料他。
當我們沿著道路行走的時候，太陽燦爛地照耀著，微風輕輕地吹著。我們看見美麗的花兒對我們微笑著，並聽見鳥兒在樹上唱著悅耳的歌曲，風景實十分美麗。
當我們感覺到疲倦的時候，我們就回家了。我們看見母樣正在門口等候我們。

10 BE PATRIOTIC 要愛國
It is the ty of every citizen to make the country rich and powerful (To make the country rich and strong is...). In order to accomplish this object one must be patriotic (love his country). I consider this an unchangeable truth.
How can a student love his country (be patriotic)? I find my answer very simple and clear. He must study hard and store up knowledge so as to serve his (the) country in the future. If every student can do according to what I said, the country will certainly be rich and powerful.
要使國家富強是每個公民的責任。為了達到此目的，必須愛國。我認為這是一條不易的定理。
一個學生如何才能愛國呢？我發覺答復很簡單明了。他必須用功讀書並積儲知識以便將來服務國家。如果每個學生能按照我所說的去做，國家一定會富強。

11 THE VALUE OF TIME 愛惜時光
An English proverb says that time is money. I consider it (this) wrong. Why? Because we all know that we can earn money be work but can not in any way get back time (in anyway). For this reason, we may (can) say that time is more valuable than money.
Many people do not know the value of time. It (this) is indeed a great pity. We must bear (keep) in mind that wasting time is equal to wasting your life.
英國有句諺語說，時間就是金錢。我認為這是不對的。為什麼？因為我們大家都知道我們能夠用工作賺錢，但無論如何卻無法把時間爭取回來。基於此種理由，我們可以說時間比錢錢更寶貴。
許多人不知愛惜時光。這確實是可惜的。我們必須記住浪費時間等於浪費生命。
12 Love Your Life 熱愛生活
However mean your life is,meet it and live it ;do not shun it and call it hard names.It is not so bad as you are.It looks poorest when you are richest.The fault-finder will find faults in paradise.Love your life,poor as it is.You may perhaps have some pleasant,thrilling,glorious hourss,even in a poor-house.The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man's abode;the snow melts before its door as early in the spring.I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there,and have as cheering thoughts,as in a palace.The town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any.May be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving.Most think that they are above being supported by the town;but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means.which should be more disreputable.Cultivate poverty like a garden herb,like sage.Do not trouble yourself much to get new things,whether clothes or friends,Turn the old,return to them.Things do not change;we change.Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.

不論你的生活如何卑賤，你要面對它生活，不要躲避它，更別用惡言咒罵它。它不像你那樣壞。你最富有的時候，倒是看似最窮。愛找缺點的人就是到天堂里也能找到缺點。你要愛你的生活，盡管它貧窮。甚至在一個濟貧院里，你也還有愉快、高興、光榮的時候。夕陽反射在濟貧院的窗上，像身在富戶人家窗上一樣光亮；在那門前，積雪同在早春融化。我只看到，一個從容的人，在哪裡也像在皇宮中一樣，生活得心滿意足而富有愉快的思想。城鎮中的窮人，我看，倒往往是過著最獨立不羈的生活。也許因為他們很偉大，所以受之無愧。大多數人以為他們是超然的，不靠城鎮來支援他們；可是事實上他們是往往利用了不正當的手段來對付生活，他們是毫不超脫的，毋寧是不體面的。視貧窮如園中之花而像聖人一樣耕植它吧！不要找新的花樣，無論是新的朋友或新的衣服，來麻煩你自己。找舊的，回到那裡去。萬物不變，是我們在變。你的衣服可以賣掉，但要保留你的思想。

In the first place, English has become an international language. If you know English, you van make a trip round the world without being misunderstood.
In the second place, most valuable books, newspapers and magazines are written in English. If you wish (hope) to get knowledge, you must learn English.

大多數有價值的書籍，報紙和雜志都是用英文寫的。如果你希望獲得知識，你必須學習英文。

14 MY BIRTHDAY 我的生日
Yesterday was my birthday, so some of my classmates sent me presents. Mother prepared a tea party for me. I invited all of them to come and take part in it.
The tea party began at half past six. There were cold drinks and refreshments. We ate, talked and laughed. We felt that we were the happiest men in the world.
Time passed quickly. In a twinkling, the clock on the wall struck nine. We could not but say 「Good-bye」 to one another.
昨天是我生日，所以有幾位我的同班同學送我禮。母親給我准備一個茶會。我邀請他們都前來參加。
茶會下午六點半開始。有冷飲和點心。我們又吃又談又笑。我們覺得是世界上最快樂的人。 時間過得很快。轉瞬間，牆上的鍾敲九點了。我們不得不互道再見。
15 After setting the note ablaze he dropped it into an ashtray and watched it burn. For a time the names cast moving shadows on the walls of the darkened room, then they nickered and died out. The colonel dropped the cigarette to the floor and ground it out with his heel, then clutched the photograph to his breast, removed a pistol from his pocket, placed the barrel in his mouth and pulled the trigger. In the ashtray a small portion of the note remained. Where it had been wetted by his tear it had failed to bum, and on that scrap of paper were the words "died yesterday."

他點燃了字條，將它扔進了煙灰缸中，看著它慢慢地燃燒起來。在火苗的映襯下，這間漆黑的屋子裡的四壁一時變得影影綽綽。不一會兒，火苗成了星星點點，漸漸地熄滅了。上校把香煙扔在了地板上，用後腳跟碾滅，隨後抓起照片放在自己的胸前。他從衣兜中掏出了一把手槍，將槍筒放進自己的嘴中，接著扣動扳機。在煙灰缸中還殘留著一小片字條，由於被上校的淚水浸濕而未能燃盡。在這塊殘片上有這樣幾個字「昨天去世」。

I. 初一上冊英語23頁2b閱讀作文

我叫凱特抄，我的姐（妹）叫吉娜襲。我很愛干凈，但是吉娜不是。在我們的房間里，我的書和錄音磁帶是放在書櫃里。我的鑰匙是在我的書包里。我有一個鬧鍾。它放在桌子上面。吉娜的書到處都是——在她的床上，在沙發上，還在椅子下面。這個白色的飛機模型是她的。它在書桌下面。「我的鑰匙在哪裡？我的尺子在哪裡？我的書包在哪裡？」吉娜總是問。
