在我国，一年有很多节日，在这些节日中，我最喜欢春节。这不仅因为它是一年中最大的节日，更因为它是新一年的开始，给人们带来新的希望，也因为它是亲朋好友团聚的时刻。不管身在何方，人们总会在春节前回到家里准备过节。

通常，我们会在除夕夜吃一顿丰盛的晚餐，之后家人团座一起，分享一年以来的生活以及新年计划。有的人则会玩游戏或者出去玩。大年初一，人们通常会早起，会与见到的人说吉祥话。孩子们会得到压岁钱。在接下来的几天里，人们会带上新年祝福互相串门拜年。总之，春节是一个欢聚一堂、供人享乐的日子。

When people start to set the goal, they will think about the result immediately, of course they want to get the best result. If people can predict the result, most of them will give up by knowing the unsuccessful ending. It seems that if the result is bad, what people work for is meaningless. Well, in my opinion, the process of fighting for the goal is much more important than the result. When we fight for our goal, we will do our best and try to improve ourselves, even we fail in the end, but when we look back at the beginning, we can find that we are no longer the childish ones, we have grown up and become mature. What’s more, on the process of fighting, we get close to success, as the saying that fail is the mother of success. So don’t treat the result so serious, just enjoy the process.

当人们开始定目标，他们会立刻想到结果，当然他们想要得到最好的结果。如果人们能够预知结果，他们大部分人会因为知道失败的结果而不去尝试。似乎如果结果是坏的，人们所做的努力就会没有意义。然而，在我看来，为目标而奋斗的过程比结果重要得多。当我们为了目标而奋斗的时候，会努力做到最好，尝试提高自己，即使最终失败，但是在我们回望开始的时候，就会发现我们不再是那个天真的自己，我们已经长大，变得成熟。而且，在奋斗的过程中，我们离成功也近了一步，正如有句话叫失败是成功之母。因此不要把结果看得那么严重，享受过程就好。

中文翻译：

每年的五月初五，是我国的一个重要传统节日——端午节。

每逢到这一天，家家户户都要吃棕子、喝雄黄酒、挂菖蒲、艾叶、有些地方还举行划龙舟比赛……

关于端午节，有一个流传很广的故事。中国古代有一位伟大的爱国诗人，名叫屈原。在公元278年，农历五月初五的那天，屈原在绝望、悲愤之下，投入旧罗江，当地的百姓闻讯后，马上划船去打捞，一直行止洞庭湖始终不见屈原的尸体。

为了寄托哀思，人们荡舟江河之上，此后就变成为龙舟比赛。百姓又怕江河里的鱼吃掉屈原的身体，就纷纷从家里拿来米糰投入江中，以免鱼虾糟蹋屈原的尸体。后来就形成了吃粽子的习俗……

根据以上故事来看，这些都是为了纪念屈原而形成一种风俗习惯。我国还有许许多多的传统文化，作为一名中国人，我平时还要更多地去了解这些灿烂古代文化。

中国有许许多多丰富多彩的传统文化，博大精深，源远流长。由于我从小非常爱吃粽子，所以对“端午节”的印象非常深刻。

Remember once, my brother send me video of the Japanese cherry blossoms in full bloom, I see cherry blossoms, as if to smell it sends out a light faint scent, as if I am in the sea of the cherry blossoms in full bloom. Although I havent been to Japan, but in my brother and I talk and send pictures, made me understand a lot of things about Japan, which is the pleasure of network brings me.

In this summer vacation mom seemed to see my heart, and immediately to the library of our village four or five books about history of thick book to me, then I watched intently. But I saw it in three weeks and I had nothing to do. Three days after reading the book, I was still bored. Finally, my fourth day mother asked me to go with her to move the watermelon!

I put on my boots and started off with the bucket. I walked gingerly on the slippery field, and gradually saw many watermelons, carefully removing the round watermelon, for fear of falling on the ground. "One, two, three..." I put five big watermelons on the bucket, and I lifted the bucket and pulled it back. I was full of sweat when I came home, but "the emperor has no man to do", and my mother gave me an ice watermelon to reward me. Its nice!

But, those are memories, and the new semester is the one that needs to be faced.

My View on The Advantage of Keeping Pets。When it comes to the topic of keeping pets， some may think it is a waste of both time and money； some people， may find it is a great joy。 As for me， I hold that keeping pets can bring me happiness。

关于饲养宠物，有的人认为这既浪费时间也浪费金钱，而有的人则认为这是乐趣所在。至于我，我认为养宠物能带来快乐。

Firstly， keeping pets can keep us company when we feel lonely。 As we know that it is impossible for us to stay with others all the time， and sometimes we have to stay all by ourselves。 At this time we may feel lonely， if you have a pet， it will help to keep company with you。 You can play with your pet and regard it as your friend。

首先，宠物能在我们感觉孤独是陪伴我们，因为我们不可能时刻都有人相伴左右，而有的时候我们更愿意独处，这个时候可能会感觉孤独，如果有宠物，它就会是很好的陪伴。我们可以和动物一起玩，可以把它当朋友。

Secondly， keeping pets makes our world more harmonious。 Animals are good friends to us human beings； it will make our world more harmonious to build friendship with them。

其次，宠物能让世界更和谐。动物是人类的好朋友，和动物建立朋友的关系将会使我们的世界更加和谐。

Last but not least， keeping pets makes us more patience。 Animal needs careful cares， and we need bath them， feed them and take them out every day， which is time consuming。 If we have a pet and can do that every day， we will become more patient。

最后，动物会使我们更有耐心。动物需要细心的照料，我们要给它洗澡、喂饭，还要每天带出去遛遛，这都很费时。如果我们有宠物，并每天这样照料它，我们会更有耐心的。

In a word， keeping pets can keep us company， make our world more harmonious and make us more patient， so I think it is a great for us to keep pets。

总的来说，宠物能陪伴我们，让我们的世界更加和谐，并锻炼我们的耐心，所以我认为养宠物对于我们来说是很好的。

导语：企鹅是生长在南极洲的一种最为著名的鸟类了。它一年四季总爱穿着一套黑白相间的燕尾服，至今还从没见它换呢!下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

They survive in some of the coldest environments in the world - but even penguins appreciate a warm woolly jumper once in a while.

The mini knitted garments have helped save hundreds of flightless birds caught in oil spills providing protection from the elements and stopping them from ingesting poisonous pollution.

Knits for Nature a program run by The Penguin Foundation which conserves the little penguin population of Phillip Island 140km south-east of Melbourne has created up to 300 different designs over the years - and its all thanks to talented volunteers.

‘There’s a lot of hidden creativity out there said Lyn Blom of the Phillip Island Nature Park.

People love to know that they’re helping the penguins because they’re so cute and small and they waddle up the beach and they’re so feisty. But they need to be they live in a pretty tough sort of environment.’

A thumbnail-sized patch of oil can kill little penguins the smallest of the species measuring just 13 inches (33cm) and weighing 2.2lbs (1kg). The oil separates and mats their feathers breaking natural waterproofing and heating functions.

Ms Blom estimates she has knitted between 200 and 300 penguin jumpers over the years including ones in the colours of every Australian Rules football team in the country.

A staff member read an article in an English women’s magazine about knitting for guillemot birds and decided to adapt the designs.

‘There’s an awful lot of ladies out there who used to knit for their children and grandchildren. These ladies have spare wool and idle hands and they love to feel loved and needed and we love and need them’ said Ms Blom.

The Penguin Foundation recently staged a competition for the most creative jumper which received an enthusiastic response.

The Penguin Foundation rescues approximately 20 birds a year. They even have a stockpile of jumpers in case of emergency - such as the large oil spill near Phillip Island in 2001.

In that instance 453 Little Penguins were affected 96 percent of which were saved - most thanks to the jumpers.

【参考译文】

企鹅在世界上最寒冷的环境下生存，但有时候它们也渴望有一件温暖的毛衣。

由于石油泄露，企鹅们很可能接触到石油中的微量元素，甚至误食这些有毒的污染物。而迷你毛衣能给它们很好的保护，成功拯救了数百只企鹅。

为了保护菲利普岛(墨尔本东南部140千米处)上的小企鹅，企鹅基金会发起了为企鹅织毛衣的活动。到目前为止，基金会已经设计了300多种不同的毛衣款式，这都要感谢心灵手巧的志愿者们。

菲利普岛上自然公园的工作人员布洛姆说：“我们发现了很多隐藏的创意。”

“人们愿意帮助企鹅，因为它们又小又可爱，活跃极了。在沙滩上摇摆着身体走动时，它们又显得那么坚强。 这又是必然的，毕竟它们生活在这么恶劣的条件下。”

一滩指甲盖大小的石油就足以杀死一只小企鹅。最小的企鹅大概只有13英寸(33厘米)长，体重2.2磅(1千克)。石油会使得它们的羽毛缠结在一起且分散开，这样羽毛就失去了防水和保温的作用。

布洛姆自己就织了大约两到三百件毛衣，她还制作了一个毛衣系列，采用的是澳大利亚所有足球队的代表颜色。

之所以采用毛衣，是因为基金会的一名员工在一本女性杂志上看到了一篇给海鸟织毛衣的文章，随后就决定模仿这一设计。

布洛姆说：“许多女性朋友为自己的孩子织毛衣，她们乐意帮助我们，也会提供多余的毛线和手工，她们喜欢这种被爱被需要的感觉。基金会也非常感谢和需要她们。”

最近，企鹅基金会举办了一场“最具创意毛衣”大赛，获得了不错的反响。

每年，企鹅基金会拯救的企鹅大约在20只。他们甚至还有毛衣储备以应对紧急情况，比如2001年菲利普岛附近的大规模石油泄露事件。

那次事件中，453只企鹅受到了影响，当中96%的企鹅获救——最大的功臣就是毛衣了。

Ground rules

One of my favorite teachers at Southeast Missouri State University in Cape

Girardeau was known of his droll sense of humor. Explaining his ground rules to

one freshman class, he said, "Now I know my lectures can often be dry and

boring, so I don‘t mind if you look at your watches during class. I do, however,

object to your pounding them on the desk to make sure they‘re still

running."

基本原则

位于吉拉多海角的密苏里东南州立大学有一位我非常喜欢的老师，他奇特的幽默感很是出名。在对一个新生班级讲解他的基本原则时，他说：“我知道我的讲课可能经常会枯燥乏味，了无生趣，所以如果你们在上课时看表我并不介意。不过我坚决反对你们将表在课桌上猛敲看它们是不是还在走。”
