Great change have taken place in the way of communication in people’s life.
In the past, people kept in touch with each other mainly by writing letters or using the public telephone. But now almost everyone has his own mobile phone. People can communicate with each other almost at any place and at any time. What’s more, people have easy access to the internet, with which they can send and receive e-mails whenever they like. It used to take several days to hear from each other, but now it takes only several minutes, even if they are in different countries.
In a word, people have an easier life nowadays with the development of communication.
The two day weekend Ever since the change of the two-day weekend, we college students have enjoyed it tremendously. For example, some students spend the time taking part in various social activities. Some go into middle schools to practise teaching. There’s no doubt that the two-day weekend gives us the opportunities for learning from real life as well as from textbooks.
But some students tend to idle away their time. At every weekend, they would go back home located in another city. Some haunt cinemas or go window-shopping and some just stay in bed daydreaming. In their eyes, weekend is only a time for relaxation.
As for me, I’ll not waste the two days that way. Being a law student, I’ll go into the court at the weekend and participate in conducting defense or other activities in the trying of a case. Only by practising can I be fully prepared for my future job.

The winter vacation I had dreamed all year around was finally coming. And I really enjoyed a lot from it.
The first thing I did was I made a plan for my study. I assigned my homework equally according to the holidays so that I can finish all of them in time. I also arranged myself the books and words I need to read and recite.
Secondly, I took some extracurricular activities and read some English original reading. My favorite book is , written by Sherlock Holmes. Among all the classical movies, the Sound of Music was the most exciting one. During my holidays I also made some assistance for my physical class teacher, surely I met lots of difficulties in this stage and from which I knew what perseverance really was.
Lastly, I went to the temple fair and was lucky to taste several Chinese traditional dishes; “Jiaohua chicken” is one of them. It is said it originated from Hangzhou centuries ago, made by a famous beggar Hong Qi Gong, the senior leader of Beggar Gang.Steamed with fresh lotus leaf wrapped up,it is famous for its special aroma and taste.
