+ 加入清单when we think of halloween, we think of "trick or treat", pumpkins, jack o lanterns, vampires and haunted houses.
but do you know the origin of halloween? why does it fall on 31 october? what kind of festival is it? why is it so creepy?
halloween dates back to a celtic festival called samhain. november 1 is the new year of the celts, who lived in europe more than a thousand years ago. this is the day which marked the end of summer and harvest.
the celts believed that on the night of october 31, ghosts of the dead would return to earth. the celts celebrated samhain by dressing up in costumes with animal heads and having bonfires.
many celts settled in britain and ireland, where the festival became popular. those who moved to america took the tradition with them.
nowadays, most people celebrate halloween but only for fun. they are not worried about ghosts.
kids in america will dress up as devils or angels and will go from house to house calling "trick or treat", playing mischievous tricks and getting sweets.
americans spend more money on halloween than christmas! in xx, more than hk$45 billion was spent on halloween. and hk$15 billion of that was spent on candy alone!!!
kids in britain also dress up at halloween. they visit houses, sing songs or tell a joke to get sweets. many go to halloween parties and play games like "ducking for apples". you must pick up an apple in water but you can only use your mouth. try it!

+ 加入清单Because of the high developing speed of the world, pressure has become a
serious problem in nowadays. As our students, we also have to face with much
pressure, such as the study pressure, exam pressure,relationship pressure and so
on. But how can we cope with pressure? This is the most important.
Firstly, we should face the pressure appropriately. Pressure is inevitable
in our daily life, so we cant be afraid of them and try our best to cope with
them. Secondly, tell our pressure to others. Talking is a very effective way to
ease pressure, and during the talking, we may get some suggestions and
solutions. Finally, trust ourselves. We should believe ourselves that we can
deal with any troubles by ourselves or by others help.

day;therefore,he was the polluter wherever he went.My mother and I tried to
persuade him to give it up.He gave it up many times but each time only for a few
days or only for a few hours.
Once he declared that he would stop smoking right away under the pressure
of my mother,and he threw his cigarets into the dustbin.The effect of his
declaration lasted only for two days.Then I found him smoking again when he
thought that he was alone and no one saw him.On the fifth day of his
declaration,he smoked openly.
Last winter he got pneumonia.When he was well again,the doctor ordered him
to give up smoking.To our delight,this time he really got rid of the habit.It
seems that the doctors order is more effective than mothers scolding,my
suggestion and his own declaration.

+ 加入清单There is an old Chinese saying: Top students come from strict teachers.
Perhaps affected by this saying for a long time, we believe it right. However,
as time flies, lots of things have changed. Therefore, I am eager to discuss
what relation is the best between teachers and students.A teacher can treat a
student in two ways .One is strict, and the other is friendly. Most teachers
prefer the first way.To start with, we certainly have to admit that strictness
is very effective, especially to the naughty pupils.
As pupils we aren’t able to control ourselves well or fix our attention on
one thing for a long time. We do most things because they are interesting or we
feel like doing. We are always looking out of the window in class. Sometimes, we
get to play games and forget our homework. On this occasion, strictness is a
must. It not only forces us to do the right thing, but also helps us develop a
good learning habit, which is of great importance during our whole life .In
other words, it is the first step to success.Still, everything has two sides.
Its weak points are very obvious. You see, there’re top students in a class,
where average students make up the majority. Then teachers’ orders or
suggestions are for the majority, not for top students. However, top students
always have their own study plans and prefer special homework, so orders usually
won’t take great effect on them.
Maybe you have thought out that teachers can give orders only to the
majority and set some freedom to top students. However, it’s impossible .For a
whole class, teachers couldn’t give order to part of the class, for the majority
would question why they needn’t do such work, but we need? It would be probable
that they think teachers treat them not equally, and will not obey teachers’
orders any more. This is a difficulty for teachers.It also has another
disadvantage——the communication problem .Since teachers are strict, we never
tell teachers our personal affairs or secrets. Mostly we just tell them to our
friends, but as students too, they couldn’t help to solve our problem, such as
puppy love, communication problems or study problems .Not being solved
completely, they always disturb us, influencing our daily life and study. I’m
sure that you think that making friends with teachers can solve the problem, and
you are eager to do so as well. But if we do so, new problems will come out .You
see, an adult couldnt control himself well at times, let alone us students.
However if teachers are our friends, I doubt whether their orders will take
effect any more .You see, have we ever treated our friends’ orders as orders? We
think they’re only jokes. This is another difficulty for teachers.Additionally,
our parents have the same problem. Yes, we need to be friends, but not complete
friends. We need to keep a certain distance, making us communicate well and
willing to take your orders. I remember a story.One day, a lady had her rest
room decorated. And a skilled worker was bricking up the wall. Seeing large
cracks between the bricks, she questioned why. The worker told her after this
summer, the bricks would become bigger, and those cracks would disappear.That is
not only decoration, but also communication. The principle is the same.

+ 加入清单Cars and Air Pollution
Too many cars have created a lot of serious problems in our world. Besides congestion, accidents and fast fuel consumption, cars are responsible for a good part of air pollution in big cities. All the time, they are pumping huge amounts of waste gases into the atmosphere. These gases are very harmful, causing disease and even death.
One possible solution is to design and develop clean cars and clean fuels. In Shanghai, some of the public buses begin to run on natural gas, which does not give off as much carbon dioxide as the petrol. But it may take decades for the new models of clean cars completely replace the traditional ones. Another solution is to develop modern public transportation systems and restrict the use of private cars. If the price of petrol rises constantly and the public vehicles are efficient and convenient enough, most people will not buy private cars. And the total number of cars in big cities will reduce greatly.
On the whole, the elimination of air pollution needs the collective efforts from the government, the public and the environmentalists.

Festival is a folk Festival.In the past,In the past, the Qingming Festival was
called "Arbor Day". But Today, Chinese visit their family graves to tend to any
underbrush that has grown. Weeds are pulled, and dirt swept away, and the family
will set out offerings of food and spirit money. Unlike the sacrifices at a
familys home altar, the offerings at the tomb usually consist of dry, bland
food. One theory is that since any number of ghosts rome around a grave area,
the less appealing food will be consumed by the ancestors, and not be plundered
by strangers.

honor past ancestors. Following folk religion, the Chinese believed that the
spirits of deceased ancestors looked after the family. Sacrifices of food and
spirit money could keep them happy, and the family would prosper through good
harvests and more children.

篇13:关于教育的英语
全文共 1175 字
+ 加入清单Do your teachers still use traditional techniques to teach you nowadays? A
revol- ution in teaching techniques is required now. In the past, we just took
it for granted that a teacher s aim was to teach the students all that he knew
and solve all the problems for them. Therefore, students could mot judge things
on their own under this circumstance. Thus students gradually lost the ability
to learn by themselves. In addition, they were only equipped with the knowledge
that were taught in class and made the same judgement upon every problem which
might crop up. Of course, they would find their knowledge not enough to solve
practical problems.
So it is time to change the teaching method. A teacher s goal is to help
the students develop not only the ability to learn by themselves but the skills
to make judgements on every aspect on their own. It s not necessary for the
students to turn to teachers for help while meeting with difficulties. The first
thing is to develop the students abilities to make sound judgements upon any
problem and overcome difficulties.
All in all, the aim of teaching is to liberate, but mot to fetter the
students innate powers of making sound judgements.

+ 加入清单As we know, many people favor the idea that the college life is free and
comfortable, but I’d like to say it’s not true. As a matter of fact, my life in
university is so busy that I wonder if my energy is enough. As to my college
life, I divide it into four parts, including study, student activities, library
and the others.
Firstly, I want to talk about the study. In my opinion, study is the
priority in college. When I received the letter of admission in summer, I knew
clearly that what I should do. So I make up my mind to study hard and pursue
learning as much as possible. I’m greatly convinced that knowledge can change my
life. Therefore, I often go to the quiet study room where many people study
there. By working so hard, I get good grades in the exams.
Secondly, student activities play an important role in our college life. To
be honest, the student Union is a good place where one can develop social
skills, get his abilities trained. I take part in many student activities. For
example, I’ m a volunteer, teaching the kids to learn to dance and write. I
think it’s meaningful for everyone to give a hand to others. I can also do some
jobs in the Student Union, including receiving and sending fast mail, selling
papers and magazines. I think they’re unforgettable and worthwhile experiences
for me.
Thirdly, I also visit the library constantly. It’s said that “shelves of
books, oceans of knowledge”, so I read books that I’m interested in. In this
way, I can share stories with my new friends and it also changes my horizons
.When I’m sad, lost or in trouble, staying the library makes me quiet and
comfortable. After all, every life has bad moments as well as good ones, and the
library for me is a support in bad moments. So it’s wise choice for me to stay
in the library.
Finally, I often do other things in my spare time. In order to alleviate
parents’ burden, I often do some part-time jobs and write some articles to earn
money. It helps me to be independent and improve my social skills.
In short, my life in university is busy but valuable. You can see that
study brings me knowledge, student activities improve myself, library changes my
horizons, the others things make me independent. They get all my abilities
trained. And I see that the chance will come only if you have a prepared mind,
so I’m sure that I can achieve my dreams in college life.

parental discipline even leave them far. Since we were a little child, we have
to be governed by teachers in school and endure parent’s ramble at home. These

trouble us. However, as we grow up, we gradually find that things mentioned
above are not pains at all. There are much more serious things brother us. For

afflicts us a lot. However, no matter what happens in our growth, they are parts
of our lives. We must accept them actively and do not let the pains prevent us

+ 加入清单Cell phones have become increasingly popular in china these days. wherever
you go you can see people using cell phones. many college students, even high
school students, have cell phones.
Cell phones have brought people a lot of benefits, but the most important
is that they are convenient. with cell phones in their hands, they can keep in
touch with anybody they want. if they want to get some information from the
internet, they can easily have their dream realized via cell phones too.
furthermore, if someone has a heart attack or a traffic accident, a call to
emergency hospital or to the police can quickly bring him the help he wants.
However, cell phones can also bring people problems. the most serious is
the electric wave radiation which is thought to be harmful to users brains.
another problem is that when people are having a meeting or having a class or at
a concert etc, the ring of the cell phone may interrupt others. so i think
people should use cellphones as little as possible and turn them off when they
are attending important meetings or attending classes.

+ 加入清单Nowadays, people prefer to travel by air. This is because air travel has
some advantages. First of all, airplane, the miracle created by man, is the
fastest means of transport. It takes the least time for one to travel by air
from one place to another. Besides,travelingby air is convenient and
comfortable. Friendly air hostesses are affectionate and considerate. They look
after passengers all the way to their destinations. In addition, on long
distance flights there are films and music for people to entertain
themselves.
As a popular saying goes, "Everything has two sides." The same is true of
air travel. It has some disadvantages, too. For one thing, air travel is
expensive. The average Chinese are not rich enough to afford expensive air
fares. So they prefer to take trains, which save a lot of money. For another,
although passengers are assured of their safety, they are still worried about it
during the journey because flying always involves more or less risk.
As far I am concerned, the advantages mentioned above exceed the
disadvantages. If I were given choice between traveling by air and by train, I
would certainly prefer the former, especially the long distance journey, because
time is the most important thing I have to take into consideration whatever I
do.
