Jackie's Translation:

And now, very calmly, with that curious wisdom that seems to come so often to a small children in times of hardship, he began to make little changes here and there in sone of the things that he had did, so as to save his strength. In the mornings, he left the house ten minutes earlier so that he could walk slowly to school, without ever having to run. He sat piety in the classroom during recess, resting himself, while the others rushed outdoors and threw snowballs and wrestled in the snow. Everything he did now, he did slowly and carefully, to prevent exhaustion

现在,非常平静,好奇的智慧,似乎这样一来往往一个小的孩子在困难的时候,他开始做一些小改变,,他做的事情,以挽救他的力量。在早上,他离开家早十分钟,这样他可以慢慢走到学校,没有一丝着急。在休息的时候他坐在教室里虔诚,休息自己,而其他人则赶忙跑出去,扔雪球在雪地里和摔跤。他现在做的一切,他慢慢地小心地,防止疲劳.

Here is my homework:

 

并且现在,在极度平静的情况下,在看似在儿童困难时期多次出现的好奇的智慧下,他再次做了小小的改变在这并且在她的能力范围之内,以至于保护他的长处。在这个早晨,他比平常早10分钟离开家以至于他可以慢慢地走到学校,并不需要快跑。休息时他安静地呆在教室并且放松自己, 当其他人正在外面嬉闹丢掷雪球和在雪中搏斗。每件事他现在所做的他都慢慢地,仔细地完成,为了防止筋疲力尽。

 

 

Charlie and Charlie’s family make full use of the ways that they have to obtain the golden ticket. At the last, Charlie attains the last golden ticket. I also have a experience like that, when I was primary school, I make full use of my free time to improve my score and I want to get a better performance, so I can enter a good school. But at the most important test, I can’t have a good performance, so I think I will be replaced by other that have a better performance. But in the end, I still have a high score at that test and have a good performance, so I enter the better school.

Sarah:

The miracle happened to Charlie is he found the dollar bill under the snow and he used the money to buy the candy. He didn’t find the golden ticket inside the first candy bar, but he found it inside the second candy bar. Charlie’s family was very shocked at the beginning, they cannot belief it. Than, they felt very exciting. In my life times, my grades are always unexpected for me. For example, in my math test, I think I won’t have a good grade, because I think I did pretty badly, but the result is not that bad and it was really good.

十分奇怪的是,在这十分艰难的日子里,孩子们们似乎会十分聪明的应对,查理也是如此,他很平静的改变了自己做事的方式,经量少消耗自己的体力。就比如说,在早上,他会早十分钟离开自己的家,这样就可以慢慢的走到学校,而不会跑。他很安静的坐在教室里,让自己有足够的时间休息,而不像其他孩子一样在外边让雪球。现在他做的每件事情都十分仔细,动作很迟缓,以免消耗太多体力。在一天下午,他顶着脸上寒冷的冷风往家走,他不是感觉到更加饥饿。突然,她看到了在白色的积雪中有着一个白闪闪的东西,他俯下身子去看,尽管这东西的一半是在雪里,但他立刻看出了这是什么。

The thing that’s very strange is that, in this hard day, children will be very smart in this hard time. Charlie beginning to change a little bit in some things he did. In the morning, he will go to school 10 minutes earlier, so that he can walk to school, without running. He set very quite in the classroom during the recess, resting himself, when other children are playing the snowballs out side. Everything he did is very slow and careful, to stop losing too much energy. In a afternoon, he walk back to his house will the wind on his face, and he felt hungrier than before. Suddenly, he saw a paper that was inside the snow.
