My parents were quite proud of me.
After I had studied there for three years, I entered a junior high school. When I was twelve years old, I became a student of a senior high school. I still studied very hard. Except on sick leave I was never absent from class. Everybody looked upon me as a model student.
我六岁的时候，就开始上学了。我第一个上的学校是一所国小。学校里教的课目有许多，诸如国文，算术，史地，画图等等。既然我是一个学生，我就用功读书。我父母深以我为荣。
我在那边读了三年后，就进入初中。我十二岁的时候，就成为一个高中的物理学。我依旧用功读书。除病假外，我永不缺课。人人都把我看作是一个模范生。
第二十一天：WAR 战争
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!
虽然世界的人民都反对战争，但是他们却无法能够避免它。这确实是件非常令人遗憾的事情。
战争是非常可怕的。每个人听到它都害怕。在一次战争中，成千成万的人丧失了生命，大量金钱浪费了。它带给我们无穷尽的痛苦和损失。
总而言之，只要战争不可避免，人类不可能享受持久的和平。他们的命运是多么悲惨呀！

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.
我们大家都希望快乐，所以我们应该好好保重健康。一个病人因为失去健康而很少快乐。
健康是一个人所能拥有最好的财富。钱能做许多事情，但是它却不能购买。然而，只要一个人有良好的健康，他就能享受人生的乐趣。
为了保证良好的健康，我们必须注意三件事情。它们是营养食物，新鲜空气和正当运动。
第二十三天：MONEY 钱
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.
每个人为了能够维持生活，所以都希望得到钱。换句话说，钱是非常有用，所以没有它人类即无法生活。基于此种理由，我们有一句有趣的谚语。它说有“钱能使鬼推磨”。一言以蔽之，钱比任何另外的东西更有力量。
然而，钱不应该被浪费掉。它必须用于正当的用途上。我们青年人应该养成不乱花钱的好习惯。
第二十四天：THE CHINESE NEW YEAR 中国新年
I like the Chinese new year better than any other festival. This is a time especially for rest and joy. I need not study. I wear good clothes and eat good food. I have a good time from morning till night. To be frank with you, I am as happy as a king.
The Chinese new year lasts as long as fifteen days. It gives us more pleasure than we have imagined. After that we have to（比用must来得好）resume our normal work.
我喜欢中国新年比喜欢其它任何节日更甚。这是一个专为休息和欢乐的时间。我不需要读书。我穿好衣服，吃好东西。我每天从早到晚日子过得轻松愉快。坦白地说，我和帝一样快乐。
中国新年持续十五天之久，它给我们的欢乐比我们想像中的更多。之后，我们就得恢复我们正常的工作了。
第二十五天：THE ZOO 动物园
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.
动物园是我一生中所知道的最有趣的地方。它像一个各种类类动物，鸟类以及昆虫展览的花园。
在学校放假期间，参观一下动物园，确实是一个好主意。你越喜欢看动物，你将越变得快乐。在所有动物中，猴子是最滑稽的。那是我的意见。你同意么？
第二十六天：HOW I SPENT MY SUMMER VACATION 我如何度过暑假
No sooner had the summer vacation begun than I returned to my native town. Of course I must make good use of it; otherwise I would incur the displeasure of my parents.
In the morning I reviewed my lessons and read newspapers or magazines. In the afternoon I played ball games with my friends or went fishing in the river. At night (In the night) I watched television with my family (the members of my family). hardly had the clock on the wall struck ten when I went to bed.
暑假刚一开始，我就回故乡了。自然我须好好利用它，否则我会招致父母的不快。
早晨我复习功课并阅读报纸或杂志。下午我和朋友打球，或去河中钓鱼。晚上我就和家人看看电视。墙上的钟刚敲十下，我就去睡觉了。
第二十七天：KNOWLEDGE IS POWER 知识就是力量
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)?

第二十九天：CHOOSING FRIENDS 选择朋友
A man who is careful in choosing friends will certainly derive benefit from them. Why? Because there are more false friends than real ones in this world. To have one real friends is better than a hundred false ones. Friends who flatter you to your face are not true friends.
We must make friends with those who have good character and kindness of heart. On the other hand, we should do our best to a void keeping company with bad people.
一个小心选择朋友的人一定会从他们那里获得益处。为什么？因为在这个世界里假朋友比真朋友要多。有一个真朋友要比有一百个假朋友来得好。凡是当面奉承你的朋友不是真朋友。

第三十天：TO RISE EARLY 论早起
I do not know the reason why some people want to get up late. They will never have the opportunity to enjoy (of enjoying) the fresh air and calmness of the morning. This is indeed a quite regrettable thing.To rise early is a good habit (which) we should cultivate. Why? Because the best time when we can pursue our studies is in the morning. In addition, early rising is also good to our health. I hope that everybody our knows the reason why we must rise early.
我不知道某些人要晚起的理由。他们永不会有机会来享受早晨的新鲜空气和宁静。这真是一件 发令人遗憾的事情。早起是我们应该养成的一种良好习惯。为什么？因为早晨是我们从事学业的大好时间。再者，早起对我们健康也有益处。我希望每个人应该知道我们必须早起的理由。
第三十一天：THRIFT 节俭
There is not a (no) thrifty man but becomes a rich man sooner or later. Why? Because he will not spend such money as is unnecessary. Little by little his money will accumulate. Ten to one, he is bound to make a fortune.I do not like such men as spend their money in a wrong way. They do not know extravagance is a bad thing. It can only make them happy for the time being. In short, thrift makes poor men rich and extravagance makes rich men poor.
没有一个节俭的人迟早不成为一个富翁。为什么？因为他决不花像那种不必要的钱。渐渐他的钱就会
聚积起来。十之八九，他一定会发财的。我不喜欢那种乱花钱的人。他们不知道奢侈是一件坏事。它只能够使他们暂时快乐而已。总而言之，节俭使穷人变富，奢侈使富人变穷。
第三十二天：PERSEVERANCE 毅力／坚忍
Needless to say, nothing but perseverance can lead a man to the way of success. In other words, a persevering man never does his work without succeeding in it. This is indeed unchangeable truth.Our National Father, Dr. Sun Yat-Sen, is the most ideal example. He was devoted to the revolution about forty years. He met with many failures, but he was anything but discouraged. As a result, he won. The Republic of China was born.
不需说，只有毅力才能引导人迈向成功之途。换句话说，一个具有毅力的人做工作终是(never...without)会把它做成功的。这真是不易之定理也。我们国父孙中山先生是一个最理想的例了.致力国民革命凡四十年。他遭遇到许多次的失败，但是他决不灰心。结果，他赢了。中华民国诞生了。
第三十三天：MY MOTHER 我母亲
My mother is a woman of the old school. She is too conservative to keep up with the times. However, she is good-natured and treats others incerely. For this reason, all her neighbors are only too glad (pleased) to make friends with her. They consider her a model woman.She is a typical housewife. She keeps the (her) house neat and clean and looks after us with extreme care . She often says to us, “You cannot study too ard.”
我母亲是中国老式女子。她太保守无法跟上时代。然而，她性情善良，待人诚恳。基于此种理由，所有她的邻居都十分高兴和她结交朋友。他们认为她是模范女子。她是一位标准的家庭主妇。她把家保持整洁。她小心翼翼地照顾我们。她时常对我们说：“你们越用功越好”。
第三十四天：WHERE THERE IS A WILL, THERE IS A WAY 有志者事竟成
The secret of success (The key to success) is not so much money as a strong will. A great man is one who has a strong will and an indomitable spirit. In other words, if a man does not have a strong will to win (get) the final victory, he will never succeed in his life. He is no more than a failure.It is quite obvious that there is no difficult thing (nothing difficult) in the world. if you make up your mind to do it, you will certainly accomplish your end. That stands to reason.
成功的要诀不是金钱而是一个坚强的意志（用not so mush... as）。一个大人物是一个具有坚强意志和不屈不挠精神的人。换句话说，如果一个人没有坚强意志去获得最后胜利的人，他终其一生永远不会成功。他只不过是（用no more than）一个失败者。很显明的世界上并没有难事。如果你下定决心去做它，你一定会达到目的。那是显而易见的。
第三十五天：DUTIES OF A STUDENT 学生的责任
Education is the very thing that we want to receive. Our parents send us to school so as to enable us to get (obtain) knowledge and achieve great things in the future. The following are the duties of a student (which) we should keep in mind.

In the third place, we must not tell lies.
Last of all, we must not criticize others.

最后，我们不要批评别人。
总而言之，上面所说的规则就是我们应尽的责任。
第三十六天：TO BE PATIENT 要忍耐
When someone disagrees with you or offends you, don’t lose your temper. Why? Because it is of no use to do so. You ought to (should) be patient and keep calm lest you should quarrel with him. You must know that patience is not cowardice, but a virtue. I hope that everybody practices it.
In addition, patience will also bring us success. When you meet with difficulties in your work, it is no use losing heart. You must keep on fighting until (till) the final victory belongs to you.
当有人和你意见不同或开罪你的时候，你切不可发脾气。为什么？因为这样做是无用的（用of no use）。你应当忍耐并且保持冷静，唯恐和他争吵。你必须知道忍耐不是弱而是一种美德。我希望人人都实行它。
另外，忍耐也会带给我们成功。当你在工作中遭遇到困难的时候，灰心是无用的。你必须继续作战直到最后胜利属于你为止。
第三十七天：SANITARY WAYS IN SUMMER 夏天的卫生方法
Not only is summer a hot season but also diseases are apt to happen.

总而言之，如果我们能实行上面所说的那些规则，我们既不会生病也不会吃苦。
第三十八天：WORK WHILE YOU WORK, PLAY WHILE YOU PLAY 工作时工作，游玩时游玩
Both work and play are necessary to us; the former gives us knowledge while the latter (gives) rest. An English proverb is well said: “Work while you work play while you play.” It makes our life pleasant, efficient and successful.Work is one thing and play is another. It is of course not good to work all day long. However, it is also not good to play all day long. While you work, you should work in earnest. Then while you play, you will feel more relaxed and pleasant. That goes without saying.
工作和游玩两者对我们都是必须的，前者给我们知识，后者给我们休息。英谚说得好“工作时工作，游玩时游玩”。它使我们的生活愉快，有效率以及成功。工作是一回事，游玩又是另一回事。整日工作自然不好。然而，整天游玩也是不好。当你工作时，你应认真工作。那末当你游玩时，你会觉得比较轻松愉快。那是不需说的。
第三十九天：MY FAVORITE PASTIME 我心爱的消遣
It goes without saying that work without rest will do harm to health. In other words, we had better take sufficient recreation to relax after work.There is no doubt that there are a number of amusements, such as playing ball games, collecting stamps, fishing, gardening, skating and so on.
As for (to) me, I take great delight in gardening. Whenever I am at leisure, I am accustomed to growing flowers. I regard them as my most agreeable companion.
不需说，工作而不休息会对健康有害的。换句话说，我们最好工作后，从事分的消遣来轻松一下。无疑的，消遣的种类很多，诸如打球，集邮，钓鱼，园艺，溜冰等等。
就我而言，我大大喜欢园艺。每当我有闲暇的时候，我习惯于种花。我把它们看作是我最称心如意的伴侣。
