范文：

　　 This holiday my sister and I went to Shanghai. My sister had just graduated and she wanted to find a job in Shanghai. My uncle lived in Shanghai, so we lived with him after we got there. On the first day we went to a lot of interesting places, including Waitan and Huangpu Park.

　　 The next few days were spent helping my sister find a job. We read many advertisements in newspapers. My sister failed in getting the first job because they said she was too young. Then we lost our way and couldn’t find the second company. We had a map but the city is so big, so we had to asked someone for help and finally found the second company. The boss had a talk with my sister and asked her to wait at home for their decision. A month later we went home. My sister couldn’t find a job in Shanghai because she was not knowledgeable enough or she didn’t have enough experience.

　　 In this holiday we learned that if we want to succeed in life, we have to work hard and get a lot of knowledge.

　　 这个假期我和我的妹妹去上海。我姐姐刚毕业,她想在上海找一份工作。我的叔叔住在上海,所以我们到那里之后,我们和他住。第一天我们去了很多有趣的地方,包括外滩和黄埔公园。

　　 接下来的几天里花了帮我姐姐找工作。我们读过很多广告在报纸上。我妹妹失败中获得的第一份工作,因为他们说她太年轻了。然后我们迷了路,找不到第二家公司。我们有地图,但这个城市太大,所以我们不得不问有人求助,终于找到第二家公司。老板跟我姐姐,让她在家里等待他们的决定。一个月后我们就回家了。我姐姐在上海找不到工作,因为她不够了解或她没有足够的经验。

　　 在这个假期中,我们了解到,如果我们想要在生活中取得成功,我们必须努力工作,学到了许多知识。
