Confucius loved and respected the art of cooking. He established culinary standards and proper table etiquette. Most of these are still considered to be the standards even today. The tradition of cutting foods into bite size pieces during preparation is unique to the Chinese culture. The use of knives at a Chinese dinner is considerd poor taste. Confucius taught that good cooking depends on the blending of various ingredients and condiments rather than the taste of the individual elements. He believed that in order to become a good cook one must first be a good matchmaker. The flavors of the ingredients must be blended with harmony. Without harmony there is no taste. He also stressed the use of color and texture in preparing the dish. Most certainly Confucianism helped elevate cooking from a menial task to the status of an art, "the art of Chinese cooking." Taoism was responsible for the development of the hygienic aspects of food and cooking. The principle objectives of this philosophy were people's wish for longevity. In contrast to supporters of Confucianism who were interested in the taste, texture and appearance, Taoists were concerned with the life-giving attributes of various foods. Over the centuries the Chinese have explored the world of plants, roots, herbs, fungus and seeds to find life-giving elements. They discovered that the nutritional value of vegetables could be destroyed by improper cooking and that many items had medicinal value. For example, ginger, a favorite condiment, is also used to soothe an upset stomach and as a cold remedy.
I love travelling. When I was young, my parents always took me to other places to visit, such as Beijing, Zhuhai and Guilin. But as I grow up, there s such a heavy study-pressure that I can hardly afford time and energy to travel. Fortunately, I can travel to a lot of far-away attractions in the fantastic world of books and TV. Recently I have learnt about Rio De Janeiro from books. I feel excited and want very much to travel there.
Rio De Janeiro lies along the coast of Atlantic Ocean. It s Brazil s second largest city. Firstly, I love the climate in Rio De Janeiro. Sea climate is comfortable and it never gets too dry or too wet. Secondly, I love the beautiful beaches. I always form a picture in my mind of being at the seaside. I imagine myself walking on the beach. The sunshine is mild in the late afternoon and I feel the soft wind moving across my face. I can see the sun moving slowly below the sea level, just like a hot, red ball falling into the water. Some seagulls are flying above the sea and others rest themselves on ship-boards. I take off my shoes. Soft sand flows through my toes. Little waves sometimes run towards me and wet my trousers, just like naughty children. I enjoy this feast for both my body and spirit. Now I know that the beauty of nature is the greatest beauty in the world.
Alone, I m just walking, walking and walking
I valued my time in the No.1 middle school very much,because I know there is no endless banquet in the world.Before appling for xiao yu zhong,wondering whether it is the sixth sense, there was a prediction that I would leave my mother school,so I valued the left time which I have spent with my teachers and classmates.Perhaps some students and teachers didn’t understand why I was still so hardworking since I have been recruited by ShanDong university,Ididn’t have a very mature reply at that time.Now I can make a summary:After all,I have been in the science class for two and a half years.Not only was I interested in the subjects but also I have formed good privity with my teachers;Futher,many people take part in the National Entrance Examination in order to go to college,including me,but before the second term of senior three,I have known I have been admitted,to tell you the truth,I can’t accept it right now,so there was a time when I adjusted to it.
During my presence in the school,I was xiao san hao student in a row,and I obtained Li Zhen De bonus for two years.I got the second prize in the maths competition held by Shan Dong Province,After I was admitted ahead of time, I got a prize in the English speaking competition in jinan held by CCTV.
Besides my efforts,above all,I owe my scores to my teachers.It is teachers who passed knowdege to me,without them,I can’t have such scores,here,Ishall say sincerely,toilful are teachers!
In the study life in the future,I will develop my advantages and get over my shortcomings,making me more excellent,I can say full of confidence,I am pround of yizhong and yizhong is pround of me!

尊敬的赖老师:
I am writing this letter just want to say thanks to you. I am going to graduate in two weeks. You have been my class adviser for three years. During these three years you have spent lots of energy on us. You are not only teaching knowledge in the class, but also care our life. Sometimes we are afraid of you, because of your strict requirement for our study. However, you are so helpful in the daily life. No matter what difficulties we are in, you will help if you can. So, I also want to say sorry to you for making so much trouble. But you bear all my trouble. I don’t know what kind of class adviser I will meet in the future study, but I will remember and appreciate you forever. I want to say thank you again.
我写这封信只是想跟你说声谢谢。还有两周我就要毕业了。你做了我三年的班主任。在这三年你花了那么多精力在我们身上。你不仅仅在课堂上传授我们知识,而且在生活上也很关心我们。不过有时候我们有点怕你,因为你对我们学习的严格要求。不过,在日常生活中你是那么的乐于助人。无论我们遇到什么样的.困难,只要能够帮得上忙你都会帮我们。所以,我还想对你说声对不起,给你带来那么多的麻烦。但是你都一一包容了。我不知道我会在今后的学习中遇到什么样的班主任,但是我会一直记得你、感激你的。我想再次说声谢谢。
