Mother's Day is celebrated in the USA.It is also a holiday in some other countries.It is on the second Sunday in May.It is a day to thank mothers.On that day mothers usually receive flowers or cards.On the cards, children will write “Thanks, Mom”, “To the best mother in the w orld”, “Best wishes for Mother's Day” and so on.We should make mothers happy on that day.
Where does the idea for the holiday come from? We should thank Miss Anna M . Jarvis.She brought up the idea of having such a day.She lived in West Virginia.Her mother died on May 9th, 1905.She had a deep love for her mother.She wrote letters to some important persons.In her letters she asked them to decide a day for all mothers.Then Mother's Day was made on the second Sunday in May by the USA in 1913.
In China, children give presents to their mothers on Mother's Day, or the whole family go out and try to do something nice for their mothers.Because mothers always think of others more than themselves.They love their children and families very much.Everybody should show his love to his mother and help her as much as possible.

On the afternoon of October 13th, 2011 in Foshan, a twoyearold baby girl was playing in the street while her parents were busy working at their shop.But unfortunately, a truck went by and knocked into this poor girl.What's worse, without stopping to help the girl, the truck went over her, making this poor girl badly hurt.In the next 7 minutes, another truck went over her, and 18 passersby just walked past without taking notice of the poor baby.At last, this girl was saved by an old woman who collected waste in the streets, but unluckily the baby girl was so badly hurt that she died at last.
This event aroused harsh criticism (引起强烈批判) on the Internet.But why do people seem so kindhearted only on the Internet, but actually in the daily life we can hardly see them help each other? Lots of people made comments online: If you save someone who's hurt, he may say it's you who hurt him.You may have trouble when you do a good deed, because the law doesn't protect you.
We really need to learn from other countries in such cases.For example, in
Singapore, if someone does wrong to the one who helps him, he has to say sorry in public and pay 3 times the medical fee as punishment.

Although the world develops much faster and better, the resources on the earth get fewer and fewer.In order to protect them, something must be done.
Save water.Water is the source of life.No water, no life.So it's very important for us to do so.Not only should we protect drinking water and stop polluting it, but also make full use of it.
Save electricity.It is crucial (至关重要的) . We can't imagine what the life will be like without it.Everyone should do his best to save electricity.Don't forget to turn off the lights or other electric machines when we finish working.
Save forests.They are useful.Please stop cutting them down and use recycled paper instead.Make our world a green one to live in.
Recycle useful rubbish.Plenty of rubbish can be recycled
like cans, paper, bottles, and so on.We can save resources in this way.

If you go to London, you will see a lot of buses and cars on the road.You will also see lots of bikes because more and more people travel by bike.There are a lot of reasons for this.First, it's not expensive to buy a bike and it is quick, too.You often have to wait for a bus for half an hour.After you get on the bus, there are so many other buses and cars on the road that the bus moves very slowly.The underground train is quick but often crowded.
I traveled to work by bus for about four years.I often arrived at work late and tired.Then one day, about two years ago, a friend of mine said, “I go to work by bike every day.Please come and join me.” “But my bike is old, and there are so many buses and cars on the road.I'll feel frightened ,” I answered.“You needn't feel afraid.If you follow me and we ride slowly, you will be fine,” he said.
The next day I bought a new bike.Although we went slowly, we arrived at work soon.It took 40 minutes to go by bus, but only half an hour by bike.
Now I love riding a bike to work.I arrive at work quickly and I've saved a little money, and more importantly, I feel healthy.Many people think my idea is good and maybe you will see more bikes on the road in the future.
