Come back home for Spring Festival!
Spring Festival is coming ~Almost all Chinese have returned home preparing the greatest festival in China.In my hometown, we will buy so many oranges that they can easily fill a big box to the full.We are going to pick two or four to each god or ancestor in sacrifice rite.Repetition of one orange is not allowed for it is disrespect to gods and ancestors.We will put up new Spring Festival couplets on the wall.In some year,my grandpa will write personally, but in most years we just bought them from a small shop.We will eat hotpot not dumplings.To be honest,we hardly eat dumplings in the New Year Eve, which may be commom in the north.Because it is usually cold in that day,eating hotpot can help us prevent from coldness and it is a wonderful way for a whole family to eat together.There is a special pastry in my hometown.It has a red rind made by rice paste I guess.And some rice with pork,peanuts,dried scallop is mixed up and cramed in it.It is delicious!I eat one this morning:)

Some Thoughts about Journey Under A Midnight Sun
After finishing the book Journey Under A Midnight Sun, pain, sorrow, confision all such feelings came to me and I was lost in thought. I chose to read some reviews online. Many people argued that whether the two kids should be treated more tolerantly. People who have read the book know that their parents,the boy's father and the girl's mother, are not qualified to be parents at all. People thought they deserved to death.So did me. In the first and second cases in the book, almost all the readers agreed they should be treated tolerantly. The problem is in the latter cases they hurt innocent people, such as the girl's best friend and her foster mother. Some people thought no evil should be forgive while others thought this opinion was too harsh to desprate people. I think a clearer explaination may be this. When we ask others or ourselves to observe morality or law, our reason is that we should be responsible for our society because we benefit from stable one. However, when it comes to the two kids, it seems like that they recieved more hurt than help and kindness, so we feel ashamed of asking them to do something good to their society. All in all, it's believed that we should not hurt innocent people. But what do you think of it?
