新华社北京3月29日电 中央宣传部29日向全社会发布甘肃省古浪县八步沙林场“六老汉”三代人治沙造林先进群体的感人事迹，授予他们“时代楷模”称号。

The descendant named Jun lived east of the city.
Being cunning and good at running, it competed against a dog named Lu from the Han
state and won the race. Flying into a shameful rage, Lu conspired with a dog
named Que from the Song state to kill Jun and mince all its family.

Last night on TV watched a special program on the legendary footballer Drogba. I was fascinated by his heroic physical strength and brilliant performance in the games. He’s from Ivory Coast, a small country in west Africa. He has ever joined many different clubs across the world. He distinguished himself mainly by playing for Chelsea. For three times he helped the Ivory Coast qualify for FIFA World Cup. His plea for a cease fire was accepted bilaterally by the warring parties in his native country. As a philanthropist he also donated a large sum to his country for the construction of a hospital.

By inquiring about clavus on the Net, now I can confirm that the horn plug under the skin of the sole of my left foot belongs to one of its symptoms. Prolonged standing and walking can make people take the disease, which is the result of friction and pressure. Wearers of tight and narrow shoes or people with deformed polarthums are likely to suffer friction and pressure on the feet, which can thicken the cuticula in the spot concerned, growing inward like a circular cone. The dimension of the diseased part is just like a pinpoint or a broad bean. It pains the patient when he walks about.

An ordinary person tries his best to
ingratiates with his superior for securing personal gain. But a virtuous man
leads a simple life and donates all his savings.

凡夫鉆營何貪婪，高士簡樸傾囊捐。Calm like a deserted old well, I look on them
coldly as a bystander with moderate views.

我心古井冷眼觀，淡然處乎兩者間。

This National Day holiday is timed for the first seven days of October. It is the busiest holiday the whole year round. We usually clear the ash from the flue of our kang on this occasion. The annual work is strenuous and dirty. But it is worthy to do that. Every day we cook by the economical and convenient stove connected with the kang, which can do much good to our health. It is especially tempting in the cold weather before the supply of the central heating in the apartment buildings. That is why both mother and I prefer the bungalow to the flat and hate to sell it.

Full and round breasts and well⁃developed buttocks
are really sexy. Sweet voices and seductive eyes are quite intoxicating.

碩乳豐臋堪銷魂，嬌聲媚眼足誘人。

Without any of those charms, a woman may remain
virtuous. Even the prodigal will be discouraged by her image.

四者皆無可保貞，浪子見之淡其心。

A sunny day. Transplanted some seedlings of cabbages. Very comfortable evening with a bright moon in the broad starlit sky. There were countless unseen insects chirping relentlessly around reminding us of the approaching autumn.
Around noon watched a film named Father and Son in which the well-known comedian Chen played the hero. Extremely interesting and revealing.
Found a lot of asbestos shingles deserted beside the dustbins opposite to the gate of our housing estate, which are usable. Immediately I carried the intact tiles and the larger pieces into the compound where my apartment building is located. And I can build a lavatory with them behind our bungalow.

When a husband and his wife are spiritually
equal and respect and love each other, we call them a happily married couple. A
perfectly satisfactory marriage is not determined by external factors such as positions,
wealth, looks or schooling but by internal features like kindness, honesty,
modesty and tolerance. Now the young singles tend to select their companions by
objective conditions rather than virtues. Some even fall in love at first sight
and get married quickly. These irrational behaviors may be the reason of a high
divorce rate today. A happy marriage cant’t be obtained without a long time of test of characters.

After I grew up, I worked hard for my ideal
And gradually ignored parents and home.
Now I’m seemingly acting in a play,
Speaking insincerely with a false appearance.
I’m inclined to deceive myself
By showing some insignificant achievement.
I always unaccountably feel a sense of emptiness.
I won’t fall asleep if not tipsy.
