My father is 80 years old this year. He has a wish to visit Beijing and has a look at Tiananmen Square, Chairman Mao Memory Hall ,and climb the Great Wall. A few days ago I had time so I companied my father to Beijing. I could feel he was glad that I took him to Beijing. On May 20, we took the train from Harbin to Beijing. The train ticket is so difficult to buy that we bought two top bed tickets. On the train I asked the conductor if he could help change a lower bed for my old father, he said he couldn't. But a young woman said she would change with my father , we were very thankful. Around us there are always kind people and they are helpful. During the journey, my old father always tried to do with everything to prove his ability though he is 80.To be honest, he couldn't deal with anything well , for example, when we needed to take the subway, he often mistook the directions but he still insisted his idea. If I told him he was wrong, he would argued with me .So whatever he said , I just kept quiet and said nothing. Seeing me calming down, sometimes he had to follow me and shut up.There is no way, after all , he is old, but he isn't old in spirit, he thinks he can do everything well , and that brings me much trouble. On the afternoon of May 21, we visited the Summer Palace. There we met many tourists, including many foreingners. We walked around the Kunming Lake until the Seven Hole Bridge. On the bridge, so many little stone lions impressed both of us. They are all vivid . And in the evening, we went to see the Bird Net and the Water Tube. We often saw them on TV, but now they were in front of us, we saw them with our own eyes. It is a beautiful experience. On May 21, my old father and I went to the Tiananmen Square, there my father eyed the body of Chairman Mao, that is my father's strong wish because he expects him very much. Then we stepped onto the Tiananmen Building , that reminded us that Chairman Mao announced new China established. After that, we toured the Palace Musuem. We seemed to back to the Ming and Tsing Dynasties. First Taihe Temple, Zhonghe Temple and Yonghe Temple , then Qianqing Palace, Jiaotai Palace and Kunning Palace, next Yu Follower Garden , so large the Forbidden City is! So magnificent the buildings are! On May 22, we climbed the Great Wall. My father is very healthy, sometimes I felt very tired and had to rest, but my father could still go on. Some parts of the Great Wall are very steep , everytime we climbed one section we sat down and had a rest. The Great Wall is the symbol of Chinese nation, and it shows the hardworking, brave and wisdom of Chinese people. My fater realized his dream to visit Beijing at last, seeing he is happy, I am happy, too.

This evening, I went to the supermarket. When I came from the exit after shopping, I found an old man was sitting on the stairs at the gate. It appeared that he wanted to get up, but he couldn't. I hesitated for a second thinking if I lift him up. If I did it, what would the old man do? Would he think that I had pushed him down? Looking at the old man I didn't think about more, I held his arm and let him stand up. But he was so heavy that I couldn't support him, so I called another woman to help him with me. At last, he stood up, then I picked up his walking stick and his bag on the ground and handed over to him. I heard him saying something but I couldn't hear his words clearly for he must have illnesses. I asked him if he could walk by himself and told him that he must be more careful. Being sure he was OK, I left.I often heard of the events that old people wronged the innocent people after helping them, but it is proved that not all the old are like that. So when seeing such situations, do our best to help them, for respecting the old is our Chinese traditional virtue, and we all have the day when we will get old ,

Ideals are beautiful things, and they let you feel life is so wonderful. When there are ideals in your heart, you will have power whatever you do

After curing my illness, I took the train K7019 from Harbin to Hegang to get back to my home at 10pm on September 19. I am still impressed with the riding in the train now, so I can't help taking down the experience of taking the train.Because I had just finished my operation, I was so weak and couldn't move freely, so I took the soft sleeper . Usually I often choose hard sleepers because they are economical and practical. Beyond my imagination, as soon as I got on the train and found my place, a bad smell blew against my face, I really hated that smell and I was not willing to breath. It was a musty smell with damp and smelly feeling. In order to breath fresh air, I have some difficulty lifing one of the train windows to let fresh air come in, for I had not recovered completely. When I tried to lift the other window to let air run through the carriage, I couldn't make it due to my sick body.Waiting for the other three man to get in, two of them together put effort into opening the window. At last , fresh air was blowing though the carriage, how comfortable!But the situation couldn't last long and just for a few minutes, because it was so late and passengers all needed to sleep. So the windows were closed long before. The musty smell still spread over the carriage. I couldn't stand the smell and just sat in the hallway though it was so late, and only I sat there alone, so the train assistant was surprised and asked me why not sleep? I told the truth, and he just gave me a smile helplessly.I used to think it was more comfortable to take a soft sleeper than a hard sleeper, so I chose it because of my sick body this time. On the contrary, I felt more uncomfortable though I spent about 50yuan more on the ticket. Since passengers spent more money , then they should get better service, but we got worse service in fact. So I appeal for the railway department to create a better environment for your passengers and let them have a good mood when traveling. If not so, I would rather take a hard sleeper than choose a soft one.

Now loud and serious whistles are ringing outside, it warns me today is a special day, 9,18. It is the beginning of the wars that Japan aggressed China. The wars harmed Chinese people greatly and many Asian people and made the people get into the deep pain. Now everyone longs for and appeals for peace and keep off wars. Now we live in the peace time and enjoy the happy life, tomorrow is our traditional festival, Mid-autumn Day, when our families get together and spend the festival , let's not foget the history, yesterday's wars and today's happy life. Oh, one more Mid-autumn Day. The days like running water make me white my hair and wrinkle my face, and the past events are like curling smoke floating in my heart. As the saying goes, when festivals come, we miss relatives doubly. At the same time , I remembered my childhood when I spent Mid-autumn in the past. Wish my mother in the heaven happy Mid-autunm Day.Wish all my relatives and friends happyness. Wish all Chinese to have a good festival!

I am optimistic and active, and I am very healthy. I like all kinds of sports. But to my surprise, I fell ill a few days ago. So I came to the Harbin Second Medical Hospital to see the doctors. After some medical examinations, I had to be in hospital. When living in the ward, I saw so many sick people , some lying in bed, some stumbling in the hallways . Comparing with the patients, my situation was better than them, and I'm a little lucky. Last Friday, I was sent into the operation room, I faced all strange. Only some nurses were busy in the operation room and then the anaesthetist came in , he asked me how heavy I was. Then a nurse held a mask letting me breath some oxygen, in fact it's anaesthetic , later I know, the nurse told a lie in order not to let me frighten. When wearing the mask, I fell asleep and didn't know anything. After a fast sleeping, I woke up and still saw the few nurses busy, no doctors, so I asked them if I had had an operation, they answered me the operation had finished, I couldn't pronounce well and I felt something stuffed my throat when I asking.From 4:30pm to 6:00pm, I had slept for one and a half hours. Now I recovered and came back home again. But the sights the patients were tormented with diseases in the hospital always appear in front of my eyes. Health is so important for everyone. If there is no health, there is no anything. Health comes first. Hope everyone to slow down your busy steps and focus on your body and take good care of yourself. Keep healthy and keep away from diseases!

Endless noise of firecrackers is full of my ears at the moment, and I can't escape from it. Why do people set off firecrackers today? Oh , I know, today is the God of Wealth's festival, so most people are making so loud noise. Have you ever heard of the God of Wealth's festival before? It was last year that I heard of it. I feel it is very amusing. Is there really a God of Wealth? Of course not, I think they set off firecrackers just in order to have good moods and realize the beautiful wealth dreams.I wonder if the local people in your city or village in China are setting off firecrackers at the moment. But I think foreign peopple haven't heard of it, so they are certainly not doing that now, right? Now that many people like to set off firecrackers, let them do it. Though I have never done that because I don't believe it. Only working hard can produce wealth, I think.Wish the people who are celebrating the festival for the God of Wealth to get richer!Wish all the people in the world to getting richer and richer! No hunger, no wars , no death!Wish the people all over the world to have a peaceful and happy life every day?

This early morning my husband got up early , he put on a suit of fatigues and a pair of rubber shoes and went to fight againt the floods.It often rains theses days and we do wish no more rain .Our city, Hegang, is on hilly ground, so we have hardly met with any floods, but along the bank of the Heilongjiang River is the Ming Mountain Town, which is under the jurisdiction of Hegang City government, when it rains heavily for a few days and the water level has risen, floods will imperil the farms and villages nearby. These days the heavy rain has continued and I often heard of the news of the situation of the floods on TV, some areas along the Heilongjiang River are in danger because of the continuously heavy rain. At present, a large number of armed police officers and soldiers and local people are stepping up relief. My husband also took part in the fighting.I always feel that I am a lucky dog born in a city without any disasters, infections , floods , earthquakes and typhoon and so on though our small city is a developing one . This time I know the people and place not far away from us are in danger of flood. Wish them to beat the flood fighting soon and have a steady and peaceful life like us.

In order to have a richer life, most people are always busy working and studying, they have no time to care anything around them. In fact, the world is colouful and beautiful, but most of us walk hastily and ignore it.Just stop or slow down your steps and watch and enjoy something around you, and tates it carefully, you will find big differences and it can comfort your tired body and heart and change your mood.I remember that every morning I hurry to work , all in my heart is not to be late, and I hardly watch the views along the way carefully. But one day in spring I had enough time to work so I walked down the road slowly, I was so excited about the scenes on the road, I was first over enjoyed the journy . The sun shone brightly, green trees were on the both sides of the road, birds were singing, pear blossoms are in full bloom, bright and white , exciting and lovely. I couldn't help taking out my phone and took photoes of them. From then on , when I am on the way to work , I often attention the scenes along the way, because I can find and enjoy the beauty of life from it. Colourful autumn leaves, small, white and fragrant blooming lilac in May and pure white in winter are all impressed on me, I lose myself in it deeply.I have learnt to slow down and enjoy everything. Even when I eat something, I have changed my habit , I sip and enjoy the tastes. When you taste it carefully, you can feel many beauty in it, so does life. Let's just slow down and enjoy life.
