1.

This afternoon, my cousin and I came to Anxi. After riding for more than two hours, I was exhausted. But when we arrived at my aunt’s house, When I saw the clear stream flowing in front of my door and the group of chickens eating, I couldn't help but feel exhausted and the snow melted away.

I walked into the farmyard. My aunt and the others were busy picking tea leaves. I put down my luggage and came to the yard. I stepped into the creek with my feet, and the cold water hit my feet. The coldness immediately washed away the heat and fatigue all over my body. I ran in the water and let the stream water splash all over me. It was so refreshing!

Then, I followed my cousin to the rabbit cage. I picked up a little rabbit and suddenly saw a little red on its forehead. I was puzzled at first and thought it was bleeding, but When I touched it, the fur was very soft and there was no trace of blood. I had to ask my cousin, and she told me that this was a mark for the rabbit. The one in my hand was called Little Baby, and then pointed to the little one with red spots on its body. There is a rabbit named Xiaolu, and there is a little black rabbit. He is the eldest among all the rabbits. Although he is older than his younger brothers and sisters, I heard that he is often bullied by his younger brothers and sisters.

At this time, a group of chickens, led by the hen, walked around me. When I saw the group of lively chickens, I really wanted to catch one to play with, so I walked over boldly. , I just stretched my hand forward to grab the chick's feet, thinking that I was done. Unexpectedly, the hen pounced forward desperately and pecked my hand so hard that I was swollen. I was really angry. Damn me! Suddenly, when I saw a group of chickens grabbing for food, I couldn't help but become concerned.

I asked my cousin for some rice, and when I came to the chicken coop, I sprinkled the rice on the ground. Sure enough, the hen and the chicks walked away. I tiptoed to the chicken pen farthest from the hen. Next to the chicken, I saw the right moment and caught the chicken with lightning speed. Unexpectedly, the chicken's cry made the hen ignore the pecking and flew over with its wings. I learned from the experience. , abandoning the chicken and trapping it, this is really a deep love between mother and child. It caused me to "grab the chicken and lose a handful of rice", and my hand still hurt badly. I think it is better not to mess with the hen.

The air in the countryside is so good! Compared with the city, the beautiful mountains and clear waters here make me overwhelmed with beauty.

2. Learn pottery

One day during the summer vacation, my parents and I went to the Hongqiao Flower Market to buy flowers. By chance, we saw a place where people learn art. It was beautiful. There were all kinds of things made of ceramics, including teapots, cups, vases, gourds, and pen holders. Their colors are so beautiful, some are red, some are yellow, some are half blue...

I thought it was very interesting, so I learned pottery there. There were many people learning there, but not many people buying it. rare. Because everyone wants to learn pottery so that they can put the works at home for decoration. Also, what you make is more meaningful than what others make. I had a lot of fun learning there. I did it four times a day. The first time I made clay strips, the second time I made clay slabs, the third time I made it with a machine, and the fourth time I painted it. After you finish painting, the people there will help you take it to the kiln to bake it. After firing, you can take your work home.

I made four things at once. For the first time, I made two things, one was a cigarette tray and the other was a basket.

I made the cigarette jar first. The cigarette jar is very simple. You just need to take out the clay tablet first, then take out a bunch of clay, use the clay tablet to beat the mud into a clay tablet, and then put it on the clay tablet. Carve out various shapes to make the bottom of the cigarette jar. I carved a love heart as the base, and then applied a circle of mud on the base, then rolled a few mud strips around the base, and applied a little mud in the middle of the mud strips. The purpose of applying mud is to fix the mud strips. Hold on and don't let it fall. Then roll a short strip of clay and stick it next to the heart, and put a small circle inside. This is the cigarette jar I made.

The second thing I made was a basket. The basket is similar to a cigarette jar.

The third thing I made was a small cup. The cup was a bit difficult. First, a rectangular clay tablet must be made to make the body of the cup, and the clay tablet must be cut into a rectangular shape with a ruler and knife. Make another quick clay tablet and use a compass to draw a circle as the bottom of the cup. But when using a compass, the fixed needle of the compass will leave a small hole in the middle of the bottom of the cup, but it doesn't matter, just use a little mud to fill it up and it will be fine. Apply a little mud around the bottom, then surround the mud board, cut off the excess, and connect the two ends with mud.

In this way, the body of the cup is ready, and then rub a mud strip, divide it into two, then glue their bodies together, then coat their heads and tails with mud, and then put them Attached to the cup, this is the handle of the cup. I made another lid for the cup, and I also made a little bunny on the lid. The little bunny is very cute. This is the little cup I made.

For the fourth thing, I used a machine to make a small clay pot. First, I took a piece of mud, cut it into pieces with a thread, poured water on it, and kneaded it to make the piece of mud become Make it softer, then put it on the machine, turn on the machine switch, and the turntable rotates. I cover the mud with both hands, put my two thumbs in the center of the mud, dig a hole in the center, and use force Press down. As I was doing it, the hole was dug, and I pushed the bottom down harder. I also made a bell mouth for the bottle. However, accidentally, I broke the bell mouth, so I took off the bell mouth and threw it into the water. Although the opening was broken, I did not lose heart and continued to work. I made a small opening for the small clay pot.

The last time, I colored the small works. I painted the cigarette pot with yellow, the little blue with red and yellow, and the small cup with half blue. The small clay pot is painted blue. I like my little works very much. They are very cute. I gave the cigarette jar to my father and the small clay pot to my mother. My mother was very happy and praised me as a smart child. My mother used the small clay pot to hold cotton. Stick, every time you take a shower, you don’t have to go to the small box to get the cotton swab.

3. Visit the Badaling Great Wall

Today, my parents and I went to the Badaling Great Wall. I was very happy.

As soon as we arrived at the Great Wall, wow! The air here is so fresh ! The climb was not steep at first, but after a while there was a very steep road, and there were many holes on one side of the city wall. I pretended to shoot out from the hole, and there was a drainage ditch on the other side of the city wall. Every "dangerous pass" \", I was the fastest runner, and finally I climbed up to the highest beacon tower first.

An hour later, we started walking down the mountain. My father and I almost "escaped". Slide down. As we walked, we saw a tunnel underneath, so we got in. However, the steps in this tunnel were more than 30 centimeters high, and they went almost straight up and down. It took us a long time to climb to the bottom of the tunnel. When I walked out of the tunnel, I saw a cannon in front of me. My mother even took a photo of me and the cannon.

There is a saying that says, "You are not a true man unless you reach the Great Wall!" I have already climbed the Badaling Great Wall , I am a hero!

4. Visit Dingling, one of the Thirteen Tombs

After climbing the Great Wall, we went to Dingling again, because here They are all mausoleums where emperors are buried, so I will not introduce them in a complicated manner.

We mainly visited the underground palace of Dingling. In the underground palace, the thirteenth emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yijun, and two other people were buried. Queen. As soon as we entered the underground palace, we felt a gloomy, strange metallic smell. The commentator also said that the passage leading to the underground palace was twenty-seven meters deep and there was no elevator, but I still walked very fast.

The Ming Tombs Museum introduces the history of the Ming Tombs, and there are many unearthed cultural relics.

In addition, there are royal road stone carvings, Lingxing Gate, Dahongmen, I won’t introduce ancient buildings such as the Stone Archway and Stone Five Gongs one by one.

5. Flying little leather shoes

Today, mother and Lele went to buy shoes. There were colorful shoes on the shelf. Not to mention mother, Lele also liked them. Suddenly, a pair of small dark blue leather shoes flew down from the shelf and were put on Lele's feet. They were neither too big nor too small. The color was just what Lele liked.

The children in the school also wore new leather shoes like Lele.

One day, Lele and her children were playing in the garden. There was an apple tree in the garden. Lele went to kick the apple tree, and the other children followed suit. Suddenly, the little leather shoes flew away from the children's feet. The children were crying. The teacher heard it and ran over. After the children told the story, the teacher said: "It hurts to kick the apple tree shoes!" Lele said: "Teacher, we know. Wrong. Will the shoes come back?" The teacher said, "Maybe?" The teacher ran to the place where the shoes flew away and said, "Kids, you know it's wrong. Please come back!" Returning to the children's feet, Lele's dark blue leather shoes flew back to Lele's feet.

6. The musical fountain in Qingchun Square

Tonight at 7:30 pm, the fountain started to open in the big circle of Qingchun Square. The fountain was a musical fountain. At that time, I was still When skating started, many people gathered around the fountain.

The musical fountain looks like this: Have you ever heard the sound of a piano? When singing on the radio, the treble fountain should be higher and the bass fountain should be lower. The fountain will be colorful when colorful lights shine on it.

Sometimes the fountain rushes into the sky like a dragon; sometimes it looks like several dolphins spitting water upwards with mouthfuls of water in their mouths; sometimes it looks like a big fish jumping around in the water; sometimes it looks like a piano do re mi fa sol. la si do upwards, and do si la sol fa mi re do; sometimes it rushes up like firecrackers, and then falls like a heavy rain, sometimes it just falls like stars. Blinking mischievously...

Many children ran in to play, but I couldn't because I was still skating. It was rainy on July 3

Test in the afternoon After finishing the test for a while, school was over. As soon as I was out of school, my father took me to the hospital to have my hydrotubation done. When the doctor called my name, I felt very nervous. I wondered if it would hurt when the doctor helped me do the surgery. It hurt a lot. The doctor used a cotton ball to apply some liquid on my wrist and asked me to hold my hand tightly. The needle holding the water was very long. I turned my head away in fear. When the doctor poked the needle in, it turned out to be more painful than I thought. It hurt. The water drained very slowly and took longer than it took me to sleep. When I woke up, the water hadn’t finished draining yet. I asked my dad to help me hang up faster. Dad said that my hands would swell if I hung up too fast, and it was already the worst. Almost finished. The bottle of water was almost finished. I was worried that when the doctor changed the water, the pain would be worse than at the beginning. I fell asleep thinking about it. I dreamed that the doctor told me that the injection was not good today. The tendon was broken, and I was so scared that I didn’t even dare to drink water. I woke up in fright, and I told my father. My father said: "Silly boy, changing the water is just changing the medicine bottle, it won’t hurt." What a scene. False alarm. Finally, I was about to die. When the doctor pulled it out for me, it didn’t hurt at all. I pressed the wound with a cotton ball and rested for a few minutes in the hospital. Then my father took me home.

Today my mother and father took me to register for abacus mental arithmetic. At first, my mother took me to see the children in class. I saw that the questions given by the teacher were very difficult. After a large series of numbers were reported, the children were asked to tell their answers. I felt a little panicked, and I said to my mother: "This abacus and mental arithmetic class is too difficult. It must be difficult to learn, and I don't want to learn." Dad said that we should go to the consultation office and have a look before talking about it. .

When we arrived on the second floor, our parents asked the aunt who signed up how long it would take to learn abacus mental arithmetic. The aunt said that we would only learn addition and subtraction during the summer vacation, and then we would learn multiplication and division after the summer vacation when school starts. I I heard from my aunt that it would take so long to learn, so I quickly said to my parents: "I don't want to learn, I don't want to learn, learning mental arithmetic is too hard, I don't want to learn!" Dad said to me, learning abacus is for my own good, and mom He also said: "Look at the children who are younger than you. The teacher reports a large number of numbers and the children can tell the answers. How great! Your current weakness is calculation, which is all calculation errors. After learning abacus mental arithmetic, it will be better for the second graders." Mathematics will be of great help."

The devil Kelu was so hateful, but Lara and Pippi went to save the devil Kelu and begged him to return to his original appearance! Lala was sure that the devil Kelu was the one. The former Kru Lala begged him, but he refused to change back to his original appearance. He was too heartless, so hateful, so hateful!

I sighed, alas, it turns out that it was not right away. He can make airplanes! I waited and waited, and got impatient. I asked my dad if there were any more

A few minutes later, my father said there were still two minutes. The ticket check started, and my aunt helped us check the tickets. My parents and I set off, and we got on the plane! We found our seats on the plane, and we sat down. I thought the plane would fly into the sky. Doesn’t it feel thrilling? But why didn’t it take off after I got on the plane? I asked my mother what was going on, and she said that this plane could not take off until the plane in front of it took off. They were on the same runway. Oh, that’s what happened. , I fastened my seat belt. After a while, the plane gradually took off, and I felt like it was about to fall backwards. The plane rose! It rose! It rose again!

August 29

This morning I helped my mother clean the house at home. My mother asked me to sweep the floor, so I swept the floor. I was very serious when sweeping the floor. I swept every detail and every corner very clean. I thought that if I could do all the chores at home, my parents would not suffer. My mother works from morning to night. It’s very hard. My father needs to be taken care of when he is renovating the new house. He is a diabetic and needs a good rest, so I have to clean the house so that there is no dirt at all. Create a good family and let my father Have a good rest.

After I finished cleaning, I was sweating profusely and my whole body was covered in sweat. I finally understood that my parents were so tired and worked so hard!

Rainy Tuesday 1.17

I finally finished the exam yesterday morning. As usual, I left everything behind and took a good rest. But then I thought about the plans I had made before the winter vacation and started busy again. I plan to do an internship this winter vacation, so I have to find an internship place first. It may be good for us to intern early in this era where competition is already very fierce. In addition, since I am a stupid bird, I should fly first.

But I didn’t expect it to be so unsatisfactory. The threshold for newspapers in Chongqing was actually so high. Yesterday afternoon, I went to four restaurants and none of them wanted anything for both of us. The daily newspaper said it was full; the evening newspaper directly said they didn’t want us sophomores, and they didn’t even want juniors or seniors; the morning newspaper didn’t want us either. No matter how diligent we are and how hard we go, people just don’t want us. Forget it, go to the Times again. We asked here and there, even our feet were sore from walking, but we didn't even go through the door of the Times. Naturally, it added to our depression. It's dark, come back.

Most people in the school have left, and the most obvious feeling is that it is not as lively as before. I didn't get up until noon today, and went to two newspaper offices in the afternoon. One was due to major personnel changes, so it didn't want interns, and the other was very straightforward, and you could go there by paying 200 yuan. I think I'd better forget it, I'm already very poor. I felt a little confused and didn't know how to spend the rest of the day. So I came back again. Today is even more deserted than yesterday. There are not many lights on the upstairs next to me, and there is a large area of ??darkness. I think some classmates have already arrived home. Forget it, go to bed early. So tired.
