Dancing Fall

I always miss theSpring Wind

It is like a tender girl

Soft and lovable

But now your passion wakesme up

From wistfulness, Autumn Wind

You dance for me with cheerful smiles

From the harvest fields

From the distant maple forest

Ultimately,you come to me with gentle smiles

Your face casts the rose into shade

And your flashing eyes shame diamonds

Your dress magnificent and colorful

Golden,red and yellow

Show your elegance

Show your passion

"MayIinvite youtodance with me, under the fallen maple"?

Your voice silvery like chimes

I blurt out

"Yes,Iwill"!

Autumn Wind

All the things were quiet,suddenly

The wind whiffed through the trees

The branches swayed about the wind

The fruits flushed with the breeze

The leaves closely hugged the earth

Then autumn is coming

The pedestrians put on their coats

The farmers picked out the best things

The children played in the leaves

No one knows what will happen in the next second

Only one thing is sure, that we should take full advantage of time

Everything may change,seasons may come,and dreams never grow old.

Autumn

Autumn is the season to die for. Autumn has come when the first leaf falls from the sky. Autumn can be romantic, a dance for two people, the staging of a fairy tale. Autumn is a magician who paints the fields golden. Leaves begin dancing while spinning by themselves with freedom and joy.

Nonetheless, some say that autumn brings them sorrow when the leaves are falling down. Down through the ages, our ancestors have said that autumn is the most sorrowful season of all. Currently, most students like to say that they only have winter and summer now, spring and autumn stop existing when they step off the train from their hometown. Because of this feeling, many of us are overcome with an irresistible feeling of homesickness and sentimentality.

As far as I am concerned, when I appreciate the beauty of autumnal scenery, all the sorrow disappears. My happiness rises in my mind whenever I recall that we are all able to have the same attractive view in this season, no matter where we are.

Autumn

Summer goes on a journey to a distant place

The world meets autumn

Autumn takes over summer’s mission

Begins a well-designed world

It calls wind and cloud, makes a golden bed for the earth

Earth’s face changes gradually

This is to autumn’s credit

We are enjoying autumn’s fruit

At this very moment, when you feel or notice it

Please send your thanks to autumn, and enjoy and cherish this time!

What is Autumn?

Someone says,

Autumn is a kind mother,

Feeding people from generation to generation;

Some others say,

Autumn is a severe father,

Punishing those who do not toil;

But I want to say,

Autumn is a lovely sister,

Sharing her joy and beauty with everyone.

The Death in This Fall

Charcoal fire burning, staring at it,

The whole afternoon

The eyes are ever in my heart

Lonely and quiet, like a dying man seeing through life

To make an appointment

After the death of her epitaph

A voice is ever at thy side, fail

However, she laughs at it

She is blind

Not identifying python and wild beast

Common practices reign over all

The children of God

Only silence, sadness with fall

Only the unlucky ones for death

If all can't change, let me die

However, death shall have no dominion

For children are living poems

If all can't change

Let me die

Find death in this fall

Farmers in Autumn

Farmers are always busy in autumn.

Firstly, they harvest crops in September. Then, they let the sun dry out the crops in the field. In the meantime, farmers usually deal with some subsequent things, for example, clearing the fields. After that, they set about moving the crops to their housetops. The crops include corn, groundnut and paprika, as usual.

At this time, farmers are the busiest, because they need to watch over their crops from dawn to dusk, in case the lovely sun is chased away by rain. Consequently, listening to the weather forecast becomes their daily task. These habits will last less than two months.

When November comes, the farmers should plant wheat. Their work is a little lighter. After this, they just wait for the winter's arrival.

Surely, farmers in autumn are fully engaged, and they are happy if they own a harvest of the autumn. They labor and are grateful. They are watchers of the field. They are to be exalted!

Leaving Fall

Flowers blossom wordless

Leaves fall silently

It is just like you

Never whisper

Leave quietly

Sunshine through the forests

Migratory birds searching for a home

In the bright morning

I have listened to a song

Crystal-clear and touching

Mountain breezes swept over the lilies

That are like your soft eyes

And twenty years later

I am still here

Waiting for you

Looking for you

All the stories have turned into the tears

Of fall

This goes on for years

I remember that young night

When I met you.

My Father

I live in a very happy family, because I have a great, kind father.

My father is tall. He has swarthy skin and a big nose. He has few words but likes showing me how to be a woman…to be a gentle, and beautiful, and strong.

When I was a child, I was afraid of my father because he was very strict with me. Once, I took a friend's doll away. When my father found out, he punished me, and taught me the lesson that I shouldn't ever take what belongs to another. Now, I still remember his words, and it will affect my life.

Unfortunately, eleven years ago, when I was only nine years old, my mother died of an illness. My family went into a deep sorrow. From then on, my dad worked hard to be both father and mother to me.

As timegoes by, I grew up. My father learned to educate me about the world in a gentler way. Everybody says that a father is like a mountain. However, my father has become so soft that he is more like the spring. In my father's love, I grew up happily. I love you, father!

Now I am an adult. I love my life at Nanyang Normal University. I will work hard and continually improve myself, and I will be able to take good care of my father in the future.

My father has had many difficulties over the past years. But, in sprite of this, he has been a great father, who is like a sun that gives me warmth. I love you forever, father!

The Autumn

By this time of the year, we have spent one and a half months in this university. Summer has gone and autumn is coming.

Look! All the leaves are turning yellow. I want to trample on the fallen leaves, on both sides of a single day.

Listen! The autumn rain is falling on the trees and flowers. It washes everything clean. The autumn is so gentle and brings us cool winds. Both the rain and the wind make a great song.

There is a saying,"Autumn is rich with fruit and grain". I like autumn, it is the season of my birth.

Autumn Wind

Like a naughty child,

Coming here, gamboling with a smile,

Flying away, accompanied by rising and dancing,

Half of the hillside is stained,

The yellow leaves, which have no sounds,

Flutter and lay over the small country road,

Then fade away quietly, without a sign;

The winter is coming, is coming!

Drifting

Autumn comes quietly

All leaves of those trees turn yellow

Tender autumn carries the leaves from their homes

We go to see the trail

In the woods

The drifting leaves

As beautiful as snow

We close our eyes and face the soft sun

It is a kind of comfort.

The Autumn

I think autumn is the most beautiful season in a year. The autumn leaves and the golden cornfields are all over the place. We can see smiling faces everywhere.

There are also many delicious fruits in autumn. There are red apples, the purple grapes. With a cold breeze blowing, the fruits will emit a scent attracting children.

I like walking in the autumn. Walking on the street filled with golden defoliation, and hearing the sound from my feet. It just makes me feel comfortable. And I will forget all the difficulties in a day and just enjoy this peaceful moment.

I love autumn and I enjoy autumn.

The Beautiful Autumn

With time going by, the summer heat is gone, and autumn cannot wait to reach us.

Dew appears in the morning and evening, wetting in the ridge, although the sun is still bright. There is pain no longer in the backbones of the sun-born people. The kiyosumi flowers fade, as if they grow weak. A light wind blows when I walk on the road, the laurel tree give off fragrance, and yellow leaves fall from the tree and fly away. I pick up one leaf lightly -- it is so beautiful that I cannot take my eyes away. At this moment, it reminds me that this season is a harvest season. There are lots of good things, such as fresh fruits and vegetables. Soon, it will also be a cool season…I always feels cool in autumn. Many animals run, or fly in the air, here and there, and they look so cute and lively.

The season looks so good, with so many beautiful paintings around me. The grass, the land itself, feels so soft when I lay on it, and I think it must be more comfortable than any other bed I know. In my opinion, of all the seasons, autumn is one of the most beautiful. Filled with fresh fruits, gold leaves, and a calm and cloudless sky, it is such a comfortable time that you can invite your good friends to go out for a trip.

I love autumn, filled with beautiful things as it is…and what about you?

Smiles of Autumn

Speaking of the autumn, our minds always firstly think of the golden yellow color in the trees and the grass and coldness from the morning to the evening. However, the comforting smiles on my parents'faces when the harvest comes have become the happiest thing in my beautiful life.

My parents are the most ordinary farmers in the country. They are two ordinary farmers who rely on the harvest of the crops to support their three children, who all study in school. Every autumn, my parents gaze at the crops in the fields with complex emotions. Sometimes our harvest isn’t very good, because of the changeable weather. On their faces, different expressions of emotion emerge, the only evidence their inner feelings. What I appreciate the most is their smiles, of course. My father has often told me,"Everything has two sides, life does, just as cultivating the land does; you may have many unpleasant things that make you lose heart. But, beauty always takes place in the times when you are able to overcome difficulty through your own hard work". While life isn't easy, you can be surrounded by beautiful things that make you happy. Show your inner heart, because smiles are the bridge between one another. They can give us the kind of power that helps us through any difficulties.

Now autumn has already come, in a quiet way. And I, too, have quietly changed, and grown into an independent person. But still, the smiles on my parents'faces when the bumper harvest comes are still the best I have known.

Thoughts of Autumn

Autumn is coming towards us with her lithesome steps. Autumn is golden, hopeful and bountiful. Look! The golden leaves look like yellow butterflies dancing in the air. How beautiful! Though most the leaves fall away, the leaves that hang on to the branches can inspire us. The flame-like maple leaves spread over the whole hill. Yes, autumn has come. Most of trees became golden and gray, and the leaves disappear. No sadness though, since there are also some who will stay green all year. They give us energy.

We ought to learn from them. We should do everything with positive energy. As the saying goes,"no pains, no gain". Only in this season of endings can we harvest what we need. Autumn is a beautiful, a romantic, and a hopeful season. We should all take pleasure in it. A beautiful tomorrow is waiting for us. Come on!

Taste of Autumn

When it comes to autumn, the things come into my mind are the cold and the rustling leaves. In autumn, we always have bleak feelings. Since ancient times, when autumn comes, people tend to feel sad and lonely. However, I would like to express my opinion that autumn is better than spring.

In my eyes, autumn is beautiful, mature, and meaningful. Autumn is not as shy as spring, nor so bare as winter. But, autumn is as lovely as spring, can be as warm as summer, and even as charming as winter. When the hot summer fades quietly, blowing away in the face of cool autumn wind, the summer restlessness of people’s moods also fades away, with much pleasure and comfort. My messy thoughts seemed to be clear as the autumn comes. Isn't life the same way? Only after having experienced the cold winter, the blooming spring and the crazy summer, can you truly enjoy the fullness of autumn.

For years throughout your beautiful life, enjoy the experience and abundance of this season. Pick up a leaf, a taste of autumnal desolation, and enjoy the feeling of it. Four seasons in life, bittersweet, sometimes full of pain, always ending in understanding.

Autumn Thoughts

With the decrease in temperature, I finally felt the breath of autumn when we ran in the morning. The cool autumn wind gently stroked my face. A touch of sweet scented osmanthus fragrance, with the pace of the gentle autumn girl.

Walking on the campus, I smell the light sweet-scented osmanthus blooms, and it relaxes my worried heart. In this strange school, at the same time, the leaves are falling in this season of autumn. My heart has already gone away, back to a very familiar place. I hope you can smell the osmanthus; it's the smell of love, to me.

Autumn is the season of sorrow. Though it comes with a sweet smell, it leaves a chill. My heart cannot be calm. Alone in the autumn wind, my deep worries stay with me.

Loving Fall

The first autumn in Nan Yang seems to be later than in my hometown, Luo Yang. The fall is not as cold as we expected. The sunshine is warm enough so that some people still wear T-shirts. Fall on the campus is beautiful and sunny. The weather is like a child’s mood, from cold to hot and from hot to cold again. It is often beyond my imagination. I have no expectations for it now.

The morning, before the sun rises, can make you feel a little cold. However, when the sun has arisen from behind the horizon, the temperature gets higher and higher. The weather has become a little colder these days, and the wind also comes on stronger. The campus is not like usual, more and more leaves fly to the ground, just like butterflies. The scene looks both wonderful and sorrowful. I know the cold is fast approaching.

The leaves in the campus are also turning yellow. The Double Ninth Festival reminds me of Wang Wei's (a famous Chinese poet’s) poem, "All alone in a foreign land during the festive season and dear." Suddenly, the feelings of missing home come to me. I call my mom, and we chat for a little while. When I hang up, my homesickness is more intense. At that moment, I feel that the pieces of fallen leaves seem to express my own feelings, making my heart softer. I realize the every year fall is the same, but also different at the same time. The moods and the place are quite different for me this year.

I like every kind of fall, the beautiful fall, the sorrowful fall, the homesick fall, but most of all, the loving fall.

A Mid-autumn Festival Story

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a very important Chinese festival. Every family will have a joyous gathering, eating moon cakes and fruits, and enjoying the happiness of a family reunion. Of course, many interesting things may happen during Mid-Autumn Festival.

The Mid-autumn Festival night this year was very peaceful and beautiful. We were havinga big family dinner, talking, and laughing. Suddenly, the electricity went off, so my mother asked my little brother to go to another room and get a candle. My brother said,"No, I don’t want to do that, because it is dark outside". My mother touched his head, saying,"Don't be afraid. Today is Mid-Autumn day. Moon sister is out there. She will protect you".He said,"are you sure, Mommy"?"Yes, of course". My little brother thought a minute and walked to the door. He opened the door, inclined his head forward and shouted loudly,"Moon sister, if you are really out there, would you like to hand me a candle"? Hearing what he said, all the family members burst into laughter.

What a lovely boy! What a happy Mid-autumn day!

Online Shopping

Online shopping has become commonplace nowadays.Thiskind ofshoppingbrings people convenience, but with mixedfeelings.Like many otherthings,online shopping is two-sided.

As a primary channel for people to purchase goods,itis convenient and economic.For example,if you want,you can get anything from anywhere in the world.You can also compare the qualityand price of different goods.

However,we often find it difficult to weigh the advantages and disadvantages of online shopping,because they are often tightly incorporated.For instance,a commercial promotionmay make people buy something they don't need,or buy things that are not as good as they think.

In my opinion,shopping online is a strong social trend. We should get accustomed to it.On the other hand,we should have a clear awareness of the pitfalls of commercial promotion.

This article is for the hand-chopping people who want buy cheap things on November11th.

Autumnin My Eyes

Some of my classmatesthought,"Autumnis a harvest season, whichisfull of gladness". Someotherssaid,"When it comes to autumn, people will have a kind of indescribable sadness. And no one can say where it is from".

But to me, it's a quiet season. Comparedtoother seasons, autumnis the bestone in which to focus on improvingmyself. I can be a quiet girl; I can think about what kind of person I want to be and whatIshould do. Sometimes I enjoybeingalone, which lets me grow up andfindmy dreams.

It's alsoa nostalgic time. I often think about the happy memories, such as pure friendship and love. I miss my former friends and my precious youthfulness. When I think of these things, I am full of energy, like the past is encouragingme to believe that the future will be better. I don't knowwhat autumn meansto you. No matter what, I hope autumncan give you more positive energyand bring you happiness.

Autumn

Perhaps autumn is the most pleasant season of the year. The weather is neither too hot nor too cold. The sky is blue and the clouds are white. You could say autumn is blue and white.

Look! Birds are flying from the north to the south. The leaves are floating down to the ground. Everywhere we can see the scene of bumper crops in the fields, golden rice, and on the trees are ripe fruits. The farmers’ faces are full of smiles. They are now expecting a good harvest after a summer's hard work. The autumn evening is especially beautiful when the setting sun goes slowly down to the west, and the sky over the mountains is covered with red rays of evening sunlight, shining upon the blue sky and floating clouds. Just as the maple leaves fall into the sky.

Autumn is the best time for going on a trip. We can do outdoor activities with our family or friends. This will not only improve our relationships, but also give us happiness. We will be beguiled by the beauty of the landscape.

Autumn Changes

Autumn is coming. Look at the roadside grass and leaves. The fallen leaves dance in the sunshine, a particularly dazzling gold. Sometimes, I think that autumn has the taste of grief, but then I see autumn morning flowers, the sun and the moon, and evening sky, and it is all so beautiful. I love autumn more than I can say.

In the fall, I see fruit lying on the ground, under the leaves, and the frost glazing dozens of strong flowers, beautiful and tenacious. Suddenly, I feel the taste of autumn growing. I like the maturity of this season. On a sunny day, standing on campus, I feel this autumn mixed with the taste of happiness. It gives me hope for the future.

I want to keep the growth of autumn, and get rid of its sorrow. Although don't like the fallen leaves of autumn, I expect to see it all lead to new growth in the coming seasons. Autumn, I want to grow up and change with you.

A Little Barking Mouse

On an autumn night, the cool wind tried to drill into the big house, where only a hostess and a dog lived. Dry twigs kept shaking like tiny dancing monsters, the moon rose slowly and gracefully, and finally it was a quiet and beautiful night.

"Mom,tell me about autumn…what is it like outside? What does the season look like? Do the leaves really disappear?"the little mouseJemmy asked.

Jemmy's mother gave him an embrace and told him:"Go out and explore tomorrow, and you will find answers for yourself."

The next day came quickly with the dawn.

In the morning,Jemmy was awakened by a barking dog named Tom. Tom wasJemmy's neighbor, and he was strong and fierce. All the little animals around the big house were afraid him, but he usually only paid attention to his master.

Jemmy went outdoors step by step, with great care, to look for answers. He felt excited. The cold wind blowing made him tremble all the time. "Everything is all right outside." Jemmy was standing outside, and was suddenly very upset, when he realized the door had shut tightly behind him.

"Mom, where are you now, I am in trouble…I can’t get back in"!Jemmy began to regret his decision to go outside now. However, an unexpected guest came along just then…and things got worse.

"Mew…Jemmy, do you know me? I have been waiting for you for a long time... will you play a game with me now"?asked the cat. Jemmy felt threatened by the cat's words. But, he managed to calm himself down. He wasn’t sure what to do, as he had never met a cat before.

But then --

"Wow! Wow! Wow! Foolish cat! Don't you know this is my house? I am Tom the dog, and I've been waiting for you a long time too!"Jemmy yelled with relief. He had never been to happy to see Tom!

The cat felt his blood freeze with fear, and all his fur stood up. He had no idea that Tom had been lying in wait.

Jemmy's mother tugged at the door until it finally popped open,"Jemmy! How did you defeat the cat"? Jemmy's mother felt unbelievably relieved to see her little mouse son alive.

Jemmy smiled and said,"There are magic words Mom,'WOW! WOW! WOW'"!

As they laughed together, they watched out the door as Tom disappeared over the hill, chasing the cat away.

Jemmy was satisfied to find that autumn could be just as full of adventure as summer.

Autumn

How many people are attracted by autumn? I am one of them.

Autumn is a wonderful season. It comes quietly, and quietly leaves. It connects with the summer and winter. Its temperature is appropriate. It reminds me of a poem. The ancient words of autumn are sad and lonely, like the poetry of Bi Xiao. I like autumn very much.

Autumn is also a meaningful time, the harvest season. This autumn, I was admitted to Nan Yang Normal University, which has long history. And, it’s a very good school. The scenery here is very good, as is the learning atmosphere. The teachers and many of the other students are very kind.

Autumn teaches me to plan my future life, because coming to university is another starting point in life, not an ending point. So, I will work hard for the next four years. Another spring sowing will come after every autumn harvest. Life is true, as long as we work hard, we will achieve what we want. So, I will try my best to be a hard-working person. In short, autumn is a meaningful season to me.

I like the autumn, do you?

Three Steps to the Future

One of my teachers has told me that the purpose of students is to learn about survival, livelihood, and life. Similarly, the whole nation needs three steps for thriving and prosperous industrial development.

“Made in China”products fly to every corner in the global, making China the world’s workshop. However, at the same time, it’s been revealed that a majority of those products are inexpensively manufactured goods with low technological content, which puts China in an awkward situation. Additionally, there are few enterprises with core technology or independent intellectual property rights, which results in many a trade depending too much on the support of foreign techniques. Finally, these enterprises, original equipment manufacturers, are hard to make profitable.

The key to achieving the new industrial revolution is intellectualization, which requires China to improve its infrastructural level from "made in China" to "created in China" and to "intelligent manufacturing in China".

Therefore, to develop the economy faster and better, our nation can’t withdraw from independent innovation, realizing the concept of "created in China". As the major force in constructing innovative country, enterprises are supposed to manage to master more standards, which can strengthen their comprehensive competitiveness and improve brand image.

What’s more, domestic enterprises should possess their own brand, design and core technology. Take my major, fashion design, as an example. So far, China has few fashion brands, and lacks original design, causing foreign brands to hit the Chinese market. Furthermore, some designers don’t combine fashion with traditional culture well. However, many foreign companies such as Gucci are devoted to market research and style development.

Moreover, enterprises have not really become a major force, due to weak innovative ability and the shortage of funds. Consequently, the government should play a leading role in concentrating investment, procurement and so on, providing a better environment for creativity.

The last step“intelligent manufacturing in China”is of great significance, built upon the second step,“created in China”. Quality is the root and brand is the direction. If we want to achieve the third step absolutely, these two elements must be paid attention to. Besides, scientific and cultural education should be carried out seriously all the time, training professional talents to assist the construction and development of our country.

All in all, if China would like to reconstruct global industry chain, it has to transform processing factories into innovation bases, truly realizing the target: from "made in China" to "created in China", and to“intelligent manufacturing in China.”Only in this way can China walk towards the future.
