WAR 戰爭

Though the people in the world are all opposed to war, they can by no means avoid it. This is indeed a regrettable thing. War is very terrible. Everybody hears it with fear. In a war thousands and thousands of lives will be lost and a large amount of money (will be) wasted. It brings us untold miseries and damage. To sum up, so long as war is unavoidable, human beings cannot enjoy lasting peace. How tragical their fate is!

雖然世界的人民都反對戰爭，但是他們卻無法能夠避免它。這確實是件非常令人遺憾的事情。戰爭是非常可怕的。每個人聽到它都害怕。在一次戰爭中，成千成萬的人喪失了生命，大量金錢浪費了。它帶給我們無窮盡的痛苦和損失。總而言之，只要戰爭不可避免，人類不可能享受持久的和平。他們的命運是多麼悲慘呀！

GOOD HEALTH 良好的健康

We all wish (hope) to be happy, so we should take good care of our health. Health is the best treasure (which) a man can possess. Money can do many things, but it cannot buy happiness. However, so long as man has good health, he can enjoy the pleasures of human life. In order to insure good health we must pay attention to three things. They are-nourishing food, fresh air and proper exercise.

我們大家都希望快樂，所以我們應該好好保重健康。一個病人因為失去健康而很少快樂。健康是一個人所能擁有最好的財富。錢能做許多事情，但是它卻不能購買。然而，只要一個人有良好的健康，他就能享受人生的樂趣。為了保證良好的健康，我們必須注意三件事情。它們是營養食物，新鮮空氣和正當運動。

MONEY 錢

Everybody wishes (hopes) to get money so that he can maintain his livelihood. In other words, money is so useful that it is impossible for mankind to live without it. For this reason, we have an interesting proverb. It says ― Money can make the world go around.‖ In a word, money is more powerful than anything else. However, money should not be wasted. It must be used for (some) proper purposes. We young men should form. the good habit of not spending money in the wrong way.

每個人為了能夠維持生活，所以都希望得到錢。換句話說，錢是非常有用，所以沒有它人類即無法生活。基於此種理由，我們有一句有趣的諺語。它說有“錢能使鬼推磨”。一言以蔽之，錢比任何另外的東西更有力量。然而，錢不應該被浪費掉。它必須用於正當的用途上。我們青年人應該養成不亂花錢的好習慣。

THE ZOO 動物園

The zoo is the most interesting place that I have ever seen in my whole life. It is like a garden which shows (exhibits) various kinds of animals, birds and insects. It is indeed a good idea to pay a visit to the zoo during school holidays. The more you look at the animals, the happier you will become. Of (Among) all the animals, the monkey is (monkeys are) the funniest. That's my opinion. Do you agree.

動物園是我一生中所知道的最有趣的地方。它像一個各種類類動物，鳥類以及昆蟲展覽的花園。在學校放假期間，參觀一下動物園，確實是一個好主意。你越喜歡看動物，你將越變得快樂。在所有動物中，猴子是最滑稽的。那是我的意見。你同意麼？

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER 知識就是力量

If we have no knowledge, we cannot succeed in doing any work. Why? Because knowledge is power. With knowledge we have conquered nature and invented steamers, trains and airplanes. We can send messages by telegram. We can talk with our friends by telephone. As is well known, we students are the future masters of the nation. She (It) needs us very much. If we do not make efforts to acquire knowledge, how can we render service to her (it )?

如果我們沒有知識，我們就不能做成功任何事情。為什麼？因為知識就是力量。藉由知識我們征服了大自然，並且發明了輪船，火車與飛機。我們能用電報傳遞消息。我們能用電話和朋友談話。如眾所周知，我們學生都是國家未來的主人翁。她非常需要我們。如果我們不努力去獲得知識，將來如何來報效她呢
