主题名言参悟
1．In the past, people usually set off firecrackers and pasted Spring Festival couplets to welcome New Year. The Spring Festival is also a time for family members to get together. Most of the customs have been kept up, but setting off firecrackers has been banned in some places.That is because it can cause serious air pollution, which does great harm to people's health.
2．In the past year, although I have made some achievements, there are still some problems, of which the most serious one is procrastination. As the saying goes, “New Year's Day is every man's birthday.” In the new year, I am determined to get rid of this bad habit and form a good habit of planning ahead of time and attach more importance to efficiency to reshape a brand new ego.(共90张PPT)

[参与“交流探讨”]
1．根据诗句(Amid the boom of firecrackers a year has come to an end, and the spring wind has wafted warm breath to the wine.)，介绍人们庆祝春节的方式，并结合所学知识，对比古今庆祝方式的差异。
In the past, people usually set off firecrackers and pasted Spring Festival couplets to welcome New Year. The Spring Festival is also a time for family members to get together. Most of the customs have been kept up, but setting off firecrackers has been banned in some places.That is because it can cause serious air pollution, which does great harm to people's health.
2．使用名言(New Year's Day is every man's birthday.)总结过去的一年，展望新的一年。
In the past year, although I have made some achievements, there are still some problems, of which the most serious one is procrastination.
