“The Chinese Dream” is a hot topic of these years. Many Chinese young people are inspired by the Chinese Dream. Everyone has their own dreams. 1. They give us courage and confidence to overcome difficulties. Here are some suggestions on how to realize our dreams.

2. 绝不放弃是使我们梦想成真的秘诀。Sometimes we may fail but we can learn from mistakes. Our life is like a long journey which is not all roses. It sometimes has wind and rain. We believe rainbows will appear after storms.

Cooperation (合作) is also necessary. 3. Everyone likes a person who is good at cooperating with others. Besides, in our society many problems can’t be solved by one person alone. Cooperation is becoming one of the most important ways for people to succeed. 4. 它在我们的日常生活中也发挥着重要的作用。

At the same time, we should learn to examine our abilities because it helps us know our advantages and disadvantages as well as get a full control of ourselves. Then we may be confident enough to face challenges.

5. Let’s pull together and take action now. Then, “The Chinese Dream” is sure to be achieved one day.

24、When I spent Christmas away from home in Europe for the first time, I was only 14 and it was absolutely terrible. I am now married and live in the US. So there is little possibility for me to go home for Christmas. Now I am able to get through Christmas with some moments of joy:

First, you are advised to search your area for stores that carry items from your home country or town. Buy food, candles and some other things that mean something to you.

Hold on to the traditions from your home that you think are important even if other people think they are stupid. But keep in mind to be open for new traditions from wherever you might be, because those traditions are as important to those people around you as yours are to you. For me that includes celebrating Christmas on the 24th.

Call, write Christmas cards, buy gifts and mail them to loved ones, just as if you were there. If you try to pretend (假装) as if the holiday doesn't exist, you are just going to make it worse.

Introduce your traditions to your loved ones, especially your kids. It will only enrich their celebration of the holiday to have some unique (独一无二的) traditions in their home. Little by little it will become their tradition and it’s fun for them to try something new.

Find clubs, churches or organizations that are from your home country. Chances are that they will have some celebration with some of your traditions which you can join in.

Food is one of the most important factors in any kind of tradition. Find the recipe (食谱) of that cake your grandmother used and make it your tradition to bake that particular cake.

Call up your parents and get them to send you some of your favorite childhood ornaments (装饰品) for your tree.

Pay attention to new traditions, talk to your family about which ones you want to make your own and stick with them.

If you are far away from home, Christmas can never be the same as you experienced it before, but it is important to remember these traditions while appreciating the new ones. Keep an open mind and find a compromise between old and new traditions.

26、As an old Chinese saying goes, food is what matters most to people. A Bite of China Season Two, all about the history and culture of eating and cooking in China, broadcast on CCTV-1 from April 18 to June 6. Food plays an important role in our daily life. It is also one of the most important parts of Chinese culture.

The documentary makes viewers long for home and the tastes of childhood. One Weibo user wrote, “A Bite of China Season Two makes me have so many words to say. It makes me think of my parents and grandmother. I remember my father taught me how to fish when I was a kid. I haven’t been home for a long time, so I’ve decided to go back in a few days.”

The documentary uses food as a window to introduce China to the world. Viewers can see how Chinese people love life by loving food. The new season is not just an introduction to food.

In Wuhan, the death rate for coronavirus patients 【6】（be）around 3.5 percent on Feb 19, higher than the rest of China. According to China's National Health Commission, the higher death rate in Wuhan has been caused by a lack of medical resources.
