Being a youth is one thing, and being a good one is another.A good youth should have these qualities(品德):First of all, health.A good body is the best riches.Without it, nothing can be done well.If you are poor in health, you will have to take medicine day after day.Even you can’t work, do sports and so on.Secondly, one must be of good quality.Always do something for others.Help those in trouble and care about the people around you.If everyone did the same,(1) what a wonderful world this would be! Thirdly, one must have the ability to work with others.Cooperation and communication(合作和交流) are two important keys to better human relations.(2)Everyone needs friends because no one can live through life or do everything he wants to alone.
Besides the examples above, patriotism is the one we should never forget.Patriotism means a love for one’s country.It’s one of the highest qualities of human’s.Everyone should love his own country.But people sometimes think patriots(爱国者)must be fighters or that they live in a time of fighting for their country.That is wrong.A good youth’s work is not only fighting.A good youth will do the things his country asks him to do.
I think a good youth of today should also have some training in art.If everyone can enjoy art and be able to make more of it for others, then people will live better and enjoy more.

China has Mid-Autumn Festival. Canada and the USA have Thanksgiving Day. Many countries in the world have harvest festivals. This is the best time for the harvest—bringing all the crops in from the field. In the United States, every year, Thanksgiving Day is on the fourth Thursday of November. Because Canada is to the north(北面) of the USA, and is colder, the harvest comes earlier in the year. In Canada, people have Thanksgiving Day six weeks earlier than in the USA. The harvest brings a lot of food to the people. On Thanksgiving Day, people in America and Canada like to have a big family meal with their friends—just like Chinese people do at Mid-Autumn Festival. Many Canadians and Americans put flowers, vegetables, and fruit in their homes to say ‘Thank you’ for the harvest. At a Thanksgiving Day dinner, many Canadians and Americans will eat turkey and pumpkin pies. These are foods like the foods of many years ago. They are saying “Thank you” for the harvest that comes every year.
