93. Winter vacation life report

Jin Yu: The moon is 15th and 16th, we are gathered on campus again. Happy New Year, students!

All students: Happy New Year, teacher!

Jin Yu: The proverb is well said, and the older you will be smarter. Congratulations to the students, one year older. After the new semester is divided, there are many new faces. Welcome new friends and old friends, and wish you a higher level of blessing. The winter vacation ends in the blink of an eye, and the new semester has begun. We will embark on a new journey, explore and gain more new knowledge.

Jianwu: We are fully prepared to meet new challenges in a new journey.

Jin Yu: The students are all good, we fight side by side. The principal asked to teach the first lesson of the new semester well. What is the best lesson in the first lesson?

Xuanxuan: Talk about the past and the present, review the past and learn about the new.

Huihui: New friends and old friends, and ask about their well-being.

Jin Yu: That's right, let's just do it. After bidding farewell to the old and welcome the new, we will review the old and learn about the new. The grammar of the last semester was mainly tense and voice. Today, we use the grammar I learned to talk about winter vacation life. The bold ones go on stage to speak first, and the timid ones listen first and then write. This class is called talking and writing. Who will start?

Wenwen: Life is rich and colorful, I don’t know where to start.

Jin Yu: Everyone speaks freely and enhances mutual understanding. Exercise listening and speaking skills and expands their own experiences. Prepare for a few minutes first, and focus on meaningful things.

Xuanxuan: The teacher takes the lead first, and then we follow up.

Jin Yu: Why did you kick the beginning ball on me?

Jianwu: I agree with the teacher to say it first.

Yangyang: I agree too.

Jin Yu: Well, let me say first, please listen. It’s more than 20 days of winter vacation, and I’ll turn it over in the blink of an eye. During this period, I wrote more than 30 posts, read three English books and one Chinese book. I was responsible for making beds, sweeping and washing dishes every day, and hiking more than 100 kilometers to enjoy the fragrance of flowers and birds. I drank a pound of white wine and had two taels of wine. The most memorable thing is that I attended a party.

Jianwu: What does the teacher drink eight taels at a time?

Yangyang: The teacher has a lot of alcohol.

Jin Yu: Are you a little surprised when you are the big one?

Xuanxuan: No. I once heard from the teacher that only one or two of them had hearing errors at one time.

Jin Yu: Xuanxuan is right, it is indeed a misunderstanding. One pound is still two taels away, the total amount of the entire winter vacation.

Xianxian: Are you surprised this time?

Jin Yu: None of these matters, what is important is the future. Several students of the 2004 class passed by fifteen years. In their thirties, most of them started their families and took on social responsibilities. Some of them still have second treasures and a new force in population construction. But some students have not yet established small families and have not yet found their favorite male god or goddess. What is the purpose of what I mean by saying this? Can you understand?

Xuanxuan: Time flies, time flies. How many fifteen years can you have in your life? I want to tell us to cherish time.

Jin Yu: You are right. Three years of high school pass by in a flash, and you can't waste it every minute and every second.

Jianwu: Time is gold every inch, and every minute is gold.

Lili: Time is endless, and I am racing against time.

Huihui: When we meet again in fifteen years, we have the same heavy responsibility on our shoulders.

Jin Yu: My report ends here. Let’s talk freely.

Attachment: In English, the classroom is spoken here, which is more convenient for communication.
