My Writing Teacher English writing was always easy for me, bu that changed on the first day I walked into Mrs. Johnson's class. Before that, I'd heard rumors from former students. They said she was strict and her class was hard to pass. So I was very nervous. The first time we met, Mrs. Johnson told us her class would be difficult, but she would give us new “tools" and guide us through. She explained that her grading system was different, and that we would not see high scores soon“Everything you do in class matters," she said.“As writing is an art, it takes a long time to perfect.” Mrs. Johnson scared me. I was afraid of what she would say if I asked a question. So in class I kept silent most of the time and couldn't follow her. When I got my first essay back, my grade was terrible. I was annoyed with Mrs. Johnson. I disliked going to her class. Then I realized I needed to find out what I could do to improve my grade and how to use the “tool” in my writing. As I still didn’t dare to talk to Mrs. Johnson in person, I e-mailed her. In this way, she and I worked together to improve my writing. By and by, I could talk to her both online and in person. She walked me through every step to understand how to write an essay. Together we saw improvement in my work. From this I discovered that asking for help could actually work. Behind everything Mrs. Johnson was saying, she actually cared about me and where I would be in the future. She knocked me down so that I could climb back stronger.I was active in class in the beginning.

Wine festival in FranceSeptember is harvest time. And with bunches of grapes swinging (摇摆)in the wind, the vineyards (葡萄园) of southern France are getting ready to celebrate it.The yearly wine festival is held in honor of Bacchus, the Roman god of wine. It’s a fun time with parties, music, dancing, big meals and lots of wine.French wine-making began more than 2500 years ago. The world’s oldest type of vine grows in France and always produces a good quality wine. Today France produces one-fifth of the world’s wine, and some of the most famous varieties.The top wine-producing areas are Bordeaux, burgundy and the Loire Valley. Champagne, a drink used in celebrations, is named after the place where sparkling (有气泡的) wine was first produced in 1700. Wine is made from the juice of freshly picked grapes, it is the sugars that turn into alcohol. Traditionally, people used to take off their shoes and crush (挤压) the grapes with their bare feet to bring out the juice. Nowadays, this practice is usually carried out by machines. Each wine producing region has its own character, based on its type of grapes and soil.The taste of wine changes with time. Until 1850, all French champagne was sweet. Now, both wine and champagne taste slightly bitter. The drink has always been linked with riches, romance and nobleness. Yet the French think of it in more ordinary terms. They believe it makes daily living easier, less hurried and with fewer problems. “All its links are with times when people are at their best; with relaxation, happiness, long slow meals and the free flow of ideas,” wrote wine expert Hugh Johnson.French people celebrate the grape harvest in September.
