请翻译一下这句英文:The best feeling in the world is when you know your heart is smiling_百度知道School life in the UK
Going to a British high school for one
year1was a very enjoyable and exciting
experience2or me. I was very happy with3the school hours in Britain because school starts4around 9 a.m. and
ends6about 3:30 p.m. This means6I could get up an hour later than usual7as schools in China begin before 8
On8the first
day, all students went to attend 9 assembly. I
sat next to a girl whose name was Diane. We soon became best friends. During
assembly, the headmaster told us about the rules of the school. He also told us
that the best way to (10) earn respect11from the
school was to work hard and achieve12high grades.
This sounded like (13)my school in China.
I had many teachers in the past year and
they each taught only one subject. Mr. Heywood was my class teacher. My favorite
teacher was Miss Burke. She was the teacher who taught us English Literature.
In our class there were 29 students. This is about the average (14) size for
British schools. We had to move to different classrooms for different classes.
We also had different students in some classes, so it (15) was difficult to
remember all the faces and names.
I found the homework was not as heavy as
what (16) I used to (17)get in my old school, but it was a bit (18) challenging
(19) for me at first because all the homework was in English. I felt lucky as
all my teachers were very helpful and I enjoyed all my subjects: English,
History, English Literature, Computer Science, Maths, Science, PE, Art, Cooking
and French.
My English improved (20) a lot as I used
English every day and spend (21)an hour each day reading English books in the
library. I usually wet to the Computer Club at lunchtime, so I could e-mail my
family and friends back home for free. I also had an extra (22) French class on
Tuesday evenings. Cooking was really fun as I learned how to (23) buy, prepare
(24) and cook food. At the end of term we held a class party and we all had to
cook something. I was glad that all my classmates enjoyed the cake that I made.
Students at school have to study Maths,
English and Science, but can drop (25) some subjects if they don’t like them,
for example (26) , History, French and Art. They can choose& other subjects like Woodwork, Computer
Science or Languages such as Spanish and German. In Woodwork class I made a
small table. Though (27) it didn’t look like a table when it was finished, I
still liked it very much.
I missed(28) Chinese food a lot at
lunchtime. British food is very different. British people eat a lot of desserts
after their main meal. After lunch, we usually played on the school field.
Sometimes (29) I played football with the boys. Sometimes I just relaxed under
a tree or sat on the glass.
I was very lucky to experience this
different way of life. And I really hope (30) that someday I can go back and
study in Manchester
Starting a new school club
We have a radio
club in our school. It is great because it is run (1) by the students for the
school. I am lucky as I am one of the hosts.
我们学校有一个广播俱乐部。这个俱乐部的非常之处在于它是由学生们自己为学校创办的。我很幸运地成了一名主持人。
was started two years ago as CD players were not allowed (2) in school. One
day, I just began thinking about music for everyone, so I asked the headmaster
if music could be played during break time. He approved (3) the idea, and two
years later I am the oldest student member of the radio club.
广播俱乐部是两年前创立的，起因是当时学校里不准使用CD播放机。有一天，我萌发了为大家播放音乐的念头，于是我就问校长能否在休息时间给同学们播放音乐，校长也同意了。两年后，我就成了俱乐部的元老了。
club is much more than just music. Every morning we tell students about the
weather and recent news, plus some special messages that the teachers want us
to broadcast.
我们的广播俱乐部现在不只是播放音乐。每天早上我们向学生播报天气情况和时事新闻，还有一些老师要我们播出的特别告示。
During exam time we have a special programme that tells the students the
things they should or shouldn’t do for preparation. At the end of the school
year, many students who are graduating use our club to give messages to their
close friends and teachers.
到了考试的时候我们就会做一些特别节目，告诉学生们复习迎考的注意事项。每当学年结束的时候，许多即将毕业离校的学生就会借助我们的广播俱乐部向他们的好友和老师留下临别致辞。
When parents come to visit the school and talk to the teachers in the
evening, we always play songs sung by students, and we also give special
messages to inform the parents of events such as outing and school plays.
每逢学生家长来访，与老师交谈的晚上，我们总是播放一些由学生们自己演唱的歌曲。我们还会广播一些通知，告诉学生家长有关诸如远足、校内戏剧表演之类的活动。
am graduating soon, I shall miss the radio club, but I know that it will
continue without me. (Kate Jones)
我很快就要毕业了。我会思念俱乐部的，但我知道，没有我，它还会继续办下去的。（凯特·琼斯）
school club ‘Poets of the Next Generation’ was started by our English teacher
Mr Owen. We meet on the last Friday of every month to talk about poems and
poets that we like. When we meet, we first select (4) poems that we love, and
then read them out loud. We do this in a group and listen to each other talking
about poems in our group meetings.
我们校内俱乐部“下一代诗人”是由我们的英语老师欧文先生发起的。每个月的最后一个星期五我们会聚在一起讨论诗歌和诗人。聚会的时候，大家首先挑选出喜爱的诗歌，然后分组朗诵这些诗歌。我们还举行小组会议，在会议上听大家讨论诗歌。
attended the first meeting, I was required (5) to write a poem and I have to
read it out to the group. It was a little scary at first, but everyone was so
nice and friendly that (6) I soon stopped worrying. I once read a poem about
nature in our school garden. I choose an old tree and circled everyone around
it before I read. The group said it was one of the best poems they had heard. (
我第一次参加聚会的时候，被要求写一首诗，还得当着小组成员的面进行朗诵。起初那阵势让人觉得有些恐慌，但所有的成员都是那么亲切、友好，我很快就不担心了。有一次，我在学校花园里朗诵了一首表现大自然的诗歌。朗诵前，我选择了一颗老树，安排大家环绕老树而坐。小组成员们都说那是他们听过的最好的诗歌之一

Mom and Dad arrive
back from vacation a day earlier than expected. The curtains are closed and the
living room is dark when Morn and Dad enter.

妈妈：& 是啊，我迫不及待地要给两个小男孩一个惊喜呢!
Suddenly a door opens and a soccer ball
flies through the room. Eric runs in after it, followed by a big dog, walking
very slowly,
突然，一房门开了，一只足球飞出来，穿过起居室。埃里克跑进起居室追足球，身后跟出一条大狗，走路慢吞吞的。
Mom! Dad! You're back early! (looking
around room, sounding frightened ) But, but ...
you weren't supposed to come home until tomorrow!
埃里克：& 妈妈!爸爸!你们这么早就回来了呀!&
(四下打量，惊慌地)可是，可是……你们不是应该明天才回来的吗!
slowly walks to Mom and Dad.
狗缓缓地走到妈妈和爸爸身边。
Mom:&& (bending to touch dog) Eric, he's
so tired and hungry! (looking at table) The money
with which you were to buy dog food is gone, but Spot looks so hungry! What did
you do with the money we left ?
妈妈：& (俯身抚摸着狗)埃里克，狗怎么又累又饿的啊！(看了看餐桌)让你们用来买狗食的钱已经不见了，可是小斑点看上去还这么饿!你俩用我们留给你们的钱做什么了?
Dad:& And look at this room--trash all over the
place! Where is your brother? (shouting
angrily) Daniel!

into room) Morn, Dad, I can explain ...
丹尼尔：& (跑进起居室)妈妈，爸爸，我可以跟你们解释……

into the room. The room is a mess, with pizza boxes on the floor and dirty
dishes in the sink. There are pieces of garbage and waste paper around the
trash can.
Morn and Dad both
turn towards Daniel.
爸爸扭开窗帘，光线一下子照进屋里。起居室里一片狼藉：地板上堆放着许多比萨饼盒子，洗碗池里全是脏碗碟。垃圾桶周围还有垃圾和废纸。
妈妈和爸爸同时转向丹尼尔。
(sounding very angry) Listen to me young man--remember the day when
we left you in charge? We thought you could act likean adult! I don't know the
reason why the house is so dirty ...
爸爸：& (非常生气地)听我说年轻人——还记得那一天我们将这个家委托你负责的吗?我们当时还以为你的行为举止能像个大人样了!我不知道为什么这个房子弄得这么脏……
Morn:&& Daniel, we thought you were an adult, a
person from whom we could expect good decisions ...
妈妈：& 丹尼尔，我们还以为你是成人了，是一个我们指望做出正确决定的人……
Dad:& Whom we could trust! This is not a family
where bad behavior goes unpunished and you ...
爸爸：& 是一个我们能够信任的人!这个家可不是一个对不良行为听之任之的地方，而你……
Daniel:& (shouting)
Stop shouting at me. I'm still a teenager! Why is everything always my
丹尼尔：& (叫喊着)别对我大喊大叫好不好?我还只是个少年!为什么凡事总是我的过错?
Daniel runs into his
bedroom and slams the door: Morn and Dad look at each other as lights go out.
丹尼尔冲进自己的卧室，砰地一声关上房门。妈妈和爸爸面面相觑，灯光灭。

Eric:& You don't hate them. I can tell them what
happened. Then they won't be mad anymore.
埃里克：& 你可不要讨厌他们!我可以告诉他们发生了什么事。解释之后他们就不会再生气了。

埃里克：& 别，什么都不用跟他们说。他们不信任我。他们不配知道事实真相。他们愿意怎么想就让他们怎么想好了。

and we used the money to take him to the vet ...
埃里克：& 可是丹尼尔，如果他们知道小斑点生病了，我们用那笔钱带小斑点去看了兽医……

Eric, why didn't they ask me what happened instead of shouting at me?

Project Writing an advice letter
people in families become upset with each other over small problems. Small
problems can become big ones, however, if they are not discussed and dealt with
early on. What would you do if you were an advice columnist and received the
following letters
Dear Mr. Zhu,
I am Writing to your magazine's 'Teenagers Now'
column to ask for some help with my16-year-old son. At the moment, he refuses
to do almost everything his mother and I ask him to do. He is our only child
and we treat him very well. His grandparents buy him many things, and yet he is
still rude to us. He refuses to spend time with us or do as we tell him.
Sometimes he acts as though he doesn't even love us at all.
Recently he has been refusing to do his
homework, and instead insists on wasting his time watching DVDs and listening
to foreign music. I cannot understand this music, but I don't like it. He also
spends too much time in Internet cafes, where he either plays games or chats
online. He is wasting valuable time during this important period in his life!
What am I to do? At present, to prevent upsetting
his mother with an argument, I am allowing him his freedom. However, I am
worried that if I keep allowing him to do what he wants, he may fail at school,
How can I help my son without harming our
relationship?
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& &&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Yours
sincerely,&&&&&&&&&&&&&
亲爱的朱先生：
&&& 我投书贵刊“当代少年”栏目，是为了向你们请教有关我16岁儿子的问题。现在，我和他母亲让他做什么他几乎就不做什么。他是我们的独子，我们待他非常好，他爷爷和奶奶给他买东买西，可就是这样他还是对我们很无礼。他不肯花时间陪我们，也不听我们的话。有时候，他的举动甚至让我们觉得他似乎压根儿就不爱我们。
&&& 最近，他就是不做家庭作业，而总是把时间浪费在看DVD和听外国音乐上。我不懂这些外国音乐，可是我不喜欢这种音乐。他还将大量的时间耗费在网吧里，在那里，他要么打游戏，要么就网上聊天。他正在浪费他人生重要阶段的宝贵时光!
&&& 我该怎么办呢?目前，为了不和他争吵，以免惹得他母亲心烦意乱，我对他采取放任自流的做法。但是，我担心如果我继续允许他为所欲为，他的功课可能会不及格，甚至会引发更为恶劣的后果。
&&& 在不伤害我们父子关系的前提下，我该如何帮助我的儿子呢?
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Dear Mr. Zhu,
I read your magazine every month and I love your
'Teenagers Now' column. I myself am a teenager, almost 17, and have some
problems at home that I hope you can help me with.
Mainly, the problem is my father. Whenever I
want to do something or suggest an idea, such as a restaurant we can go to for
dinner, he doesn't listen to me. Whenever I try to talk to him he just shouts
at me. When I refuse to listen to him, he shouts at me and the two of us fight
like crazy.
He and my mother always make me do things I
don't like such as playing the piano and learning Japanese. Then, when I have
some spare time and want to be alone, they call me selfish and unloving!
My father gets very angry when I play foreign
music. Also, every time I watch a DVD he sends me to bed or tells me to spend
more time studying. He has even forbidden me from meeting my friends online at
the Internet oafs!
I love him a lot, but I don't understand why he will not
respect the things I want to do. He was once a teenager--he should understand
me better than he does.
Yours truly,
亲爱的朱先生：
&&& 我每月都读你们的杂志，我很喜欢你们的“当代少年”栏目。我自己就是一个少年，今年快17岁了。我在家中碰到了一些问题，希望你们能够帮助我解决这些问题。
&&& 问题主要出在我爸爸身上。每当我想做什么事，或是提出一个建议，比如我们一家可以去哪家餐馆吃晚饭什么的，他总是不听我的。每当我试图和他说说话，他就对我大喊大叫的。我不听话的时候，他就对我大喊大叫，结果我们俩就会激烈争吵起来，闹得不可开交。
&&& 我爸和我妈总是强迫我做我不爱做的事情，比如弹钢琴或者学日语什么的。到我总算有了一些空闲时间、想要一个人独处的时候，他们又说我自私、没有爱心。
&&& 我放外国音乐的时候爸爸就非常气恼。还有，每次我看DVD，他就催着我上床睡觉，要么就是教导我要多花些时间学习。他甚至禁止我去网吧会见我的网上朋友!
我很爱我爸爸，可我不理解他为什么不愿尊重我的爱好。他也经历过少年时代——他应该能够更好地理解我，而不是现在的样子啊。

if I couldn't get a new liverMy mother is too old for such a long operationI thought I was going to die
& Then the doctor found that
someone in your country, whose name is Li Dong, was an exact match for mehe donated more than half of his
liver to save my lifeI was very lucky, wasn't I?
& I’m feeling better nowI follow my doctor's advice and
exercise for at least half an hour every day (but I seldom go t0 the gym!), and
eat lots of fruit and vegetables People should look after their bodiesMy mother is rightdon't damage your health for a slim and attractive figureIt isn't worth itWe shouldn't be ashamed of the way
we lookshould we?
&&& I hope to hear from you
&&& My computer was broken so
I couldn't read your two e-mails until todayI'm so sorry to hear about your problems. But I’m glad you're
feeling better and are recoveringI'm amazed that in China
someone's liver matched yours! This is really a touching story --- a stranger
who donald part of his liver to a girl he doesn't even know !
&&& You're right. We shouldn't
be embarrassed about our weightI think you look great as you areand you're a wonderful personI know that the pressure to stay slim is a problem, especially for
an actressHoweveryour mother knows bestnothing is more important than
