Books Are Good Friend

Books are our friends because they are bridges to knowledge. Knowledge is valuable because it enriches our life and brings us happiness.

Almost all great men in the history of mankind loved books. We have every reason to believe it is the knowledge in books that led them to success. There is no genius without books. Because books give them knowledge and knowledge gives them power. A man is half blind if he is unable to read.

Books make us able to learn about the past and look forward to the future. They are the most valuable things in the world. Let books be our good friends all the time.

The Great Wall

The Great Wall runs across North China like a huge dragon， It winds its way from west to east， across deserts， over mountains， through valleys till at last it reaches the sea. It’s the longest wall on the earth， also one of the wonders in the world.

The Great Wall has a history of more than 2000 years. The first part was built during the Spring and Autumn Period. All the walls were joined up in Qin Dynasty. All tile work was done by hand. Thousands of people died while building the wall. Thus the Great Wall came into existence.

Since then， it has been rebuilt and repaired many times. Now the Great Wall， the admiration of the world， has taken on a new look. It’s visited by large numbers of people from all parts of the country and the world.

But several days later， I could do a good job. I earned six hundred yuan this holiday.”They all looked at me with their mouths open.
