清明时节雨纷纷，路上行人欲断魂。

——题记

清明节到了，窗外细雨纷飞，我坐在窗前，看着雨点飘落，眼神却怔然……

爷爷待我很好，每次去爷爷家，总能抱回来一大兜好吃的。可能就是妈妈，也待不了我这样。爷爷不喜欢狗，却因为我小时候无心的一句：“好想养一只小狗”而买了一只小博美。下一次我再去爷爷家，看到这只小奶狗，惊喜的看着爷爷，爷爷却只是笑着看着我：“你高兴就好。”

可是，现在爷爷年龄大了，心脏也不是特别好，三天两头的往医院跑。去年暑假的一天，我和妈妈一起去看望爷爷。走的时候，我小声对妈妈说：“妈，我想喝羊肉汤。”爷爷听见了，立马对我说：“走，爷爷请你喝。”到了羊肉馆，妈妈还未开口，爷爷就说：“两碗20的，一碗15的。”我急忙说：“爷爷，无所谓的，让妈妈掏钱就好了嘛！”爷爷笑了笑：“有爷爷在，哪轮的到你们掏钱。”喝完羊肉汤，爷爷就回医院了。可谁曾想到，这是我和爷爷见的最后一面。

一个星期后，爷爷出院了，本该高兴，可在又一个星期后，爸爸给我打来电话：“瑶瑶，你在哪？”“在家呀。”我觉得爸爸的声音很低沉，甚至还有一丝……

到了医院我才知道——爷爷下午在小花园打牌，却一头栽到了对面人的身上。旁边的人连忙打120，等到120到医院的时候，才知道爷爷原来突发脑出血！来到医院后，连病房都没待，直接转到ICU，我被这突如其来的庞大信息量砸得晕晕乎乎的，也就是说，那个平日里宠我爱我的爷爷，现在却生命垂危？我随着大人们来到ICU，发现爷爷的情况比我想象的还严重——因为呼吸困难而脸色发紫，敷着冰袋发着高烧……

大家都希望能发生奇迹，可事与愿违，爷爷还是走了……

出殡的那天，气势很排场。可每个人的心情却异常的沉重。回去的路上，天空中下起了大雨，或许老天爷为爷爷而伤心吧。

……

天空渐渐放晴，我望向那湛蓝的天空，眼中闪过一丝柔情——爷爷，你，还好么？

清明节那天，下着毛毛细雨，天空灰暗暗的，人也觉得很没有精神。我们全家睡了一个“自然醒的觉”。我们没有出远门，因为我们在深圳没有长辈亲戚，因此也就没有扫墓的活动。

The day of the festival, the drizzle, the sky dark gray, people feel very spirit. My family had a "natural wake up sleep". We do not have to go out, because we have no elder relatives in Shenzhen, so there is no grave activities.

这一天，我在家接待了我的一个朋友，他叫浩浩，他的爷爷前不久突然心肌梗塞，住进了医院，他的爸爸妈妈很忙，没有时间照顾他，所以把他托付到我们家生活一天。早上十点多，浩浩来了，我们欢迎他，我和他同岁，但是他上学迟一年，所以还在上幼儿园大班。

That day, I received a friend of mine at home, he asked his grandpa is vast, shortly before the sudden myocardial infarction, admitted to the hospital, his father and mother is busy, no time to take care of him, so he entrusted to our home life one day. More than ten oclock in the morning, to the vast, we welcome him, he and I are the same age, but he went to school a year later, it was still in kindergarten.

我们在一起聊天、唱歌、玩游戏、看电视，很开心。中午爸爸妈妈带着我和浩浩去宝能太古城吃必胜客的披萨，我们一人点了一个套餐，浩浩吃得干干净净，我要向他学习。下午我们一起玩侦探游戏，也很开心。

We chat together, sing, play games, watch TV, very happy. At noon, mom and Dad took me and vast to Baoneng Taikoo city to eat Pizza Hut pizza, we point a package, the eat clean, I should learn from him. We play games in the afternoon the detective, was also very happy.

天黑了，浩浩的妈妈张阿姨来接他了，我很舍不得他回去。这就是我清明节的活动，很平凡，但这是我第一次在家里接待小朋友，所以很有体验和收获，我懂得了礼让和待客。

It was dark, the mother Zhang aunt came to pick him up, I could not bear him back. This is the I Ching Ming Festival activities, very ordinary, but this is the first time I received the kids at home, so it is the experience and the harvest, I know the courtesy and hospitality.

Almost everyone knows that water covers three-fourths of the earths

surface. Most of it， however， is in the oceans and is too salty to drink. Also，

some of it is frozen and cannot be used. In fact， less than one percent is left

for the use of people， animals and plant life. All through history men have

tried to build their homes near the sources of fresh water. Now fresh water is

becoming scarce， but more and more is needed because of the increasing number of

people in the world. Some industries also use large amounts of fresh water in

the production of things such as steel， petroleum， paper and rubber and so on.

Scientists estimate that the need for fresh water will have doubled by the year

2003. If they are correct， we must find new ways of saving it or producing it.

Some nations have worked on the problem and are already sharing their

information with others. They are trying to keep their rivers from becoming

polluted. Deep wells are also being dug， and rain water is being collected in

huge artificial lakes. In one way or another， they hope to provide enough water

to satisfy the needs of their people.

My mother high stature, not fat or thin, a few silk shallow wrinkles on the

forehead, often hang a smile on his face.

Mother is kind, she taught me at an early age to be honest, treat people to

be generous, since the childhood to cultivate my good character.

Remember there is one thing I always forget. It was a hot afternoon, the

sun like aball of fire to bake the earth. I do in the room, fan fan, but sweat

kept rolling down. I said to mother: "mom! The weather was too hot, hot as hell!

I want to eat Popsicle." Mother said: "go, Ill take you to buy some ice stick."

give the money back, do not want the covet petty gain! Besides, somebody else

sell Popsicle more not easy!" Say that finish, mother take fire up the sun, give

somebody else sent 3 yuan.

The first fathers day was in June, 5th, 1910, United Stated. In 1909, a

lady called Bruce Dodd put forward that people should establish father’s day. At

that time, people only celebrated the mothers day, but nobody celebrate

fathers day yet. Lady Dodd had lost her mother when she was very young, her

father raised her grew up. Lady Dodd was so thankful for what her father had

done for her that she wrote a letter to the government. In the letter, she

appeals to establish the fathers day. The government accepted her suggestion

and decided that the third Sunday of June is the national father’s day. In 1972,

the president Nixon had passed the law and agreed that the father’s day is on

June the third Sunday. From this year, the world started to celebrate father’s

day.

On this special day, the children usually dedicate flowers to their

fathers. The red roses to those who still alive, while the white ones to the

fallings. Fathers always are considered being the central of the whole family.

Without father in the family, home may feel insecure. The father always fights

for the family and support the family. On this day, we can do something for our

fathers. For instance, we can make a breakfast for them, or buy them a nice tie.

We should spend more time with our father, show our love to them.

The father’s day is coming, take this chance, and tell our fathers that we

love him. Happy father’s day!

It was a very busy evening. I was doing my homework at my home. My father was writing a composition in the study room. My mother was interested in Shanghai opera. She was watching a Shanghai opera contest. The apartment was very quiet. Suddenly the light went out. It was a blackout, but I liked it very much. It came and I didn’t have to do my homework. We went to the living room very slowly. After 5 minutes, we all sat in the sofa. It was a lucky, fortunate day. I said that let’s held a concert. My parents agreed with me. I took out some candles and lighted up. We were singing, laughing and talking. We had a really good time. But while I was singing, the light suddenly turned on. Oh, my God. My father went back to his room went on writing. My mother turned on the TV and said to me “Dear, do your homework!” I felt very frustrated. I sat at the desk and thought I hated light. I hoped there would be a blackout the next day. I thought I would enjoy myself more and more. I went into a dream……

今晚真是个忙碌的晚上。我正在家里写作业，我爸爸正在书房里写作文。我妈妈对上海歌剧感兴趣。她正在看上海歌剧比赛。公寓非常安静。突然间断电了。一切都黑麻麻的，但是我很喜欢。断电了，我就可以不用写作业了。我们慢慢的走向起居室。五分钟后，我们都坐在沙发上。这是一个既幸运又倒霉的一天。我说让我们开个音乐会。 我父母都同意了。我拿出一些蜡烛并点燃它们。我们唱歌，大笑，聊天。我们都玩得很开心但是当我在唱歌时，灯突然亮了。哦，我的上帝啊。我爸爸继续回房间写作文。我妈妈开着电视并对我说“亲爱的，去写作业!”我觉得很沮丧。我坐在桌子边，想我恨灯光。我希望第二天还能够断电。我觉得我会越来越开心的。我陷入了梦境…………

The generation gap refers to the difference in attitude toward thing or the

lack of understanding between young people and older folks.

In families as well as in society, the young and the older may not agree

with each other on this and that from time to time. Young people would llke to

make as much money as they could and spend as much money as they could earn

while older folks are easily satisfied with what they earn and save as much as

possible. Young people llke the exciting and deafening pop music while older

folks prefer melodious folk-songs or classic music. A boy and a glrl today may

fall in love with each other as quick as lightning, while their parents or grand

parents might trudge over a long distance before they kissed each other and

became lovers when they were young.

However, we should not be amazed at the generation gap,for it is quite

natural in the development of society. The world is a changing world, in which

everything keeps changing, generations of human beings included. And changes

lead to progress.

"As" this sentence is confirmed by the wonderful nature, yesterday the wisper under light rain, my heart is heavy like a rock, because want to master and old milk grave, before, I dont understand the real meaning of the qing Ming day, until today after sweeping the tomb, I understand the true meaning of tomb-sweeping day!

At seven o clock in the morning, we prepare to master and old milk grave, grave is a fresh thing for me, we take tools and set off.

Walking the winding mountain road, I cant wait, after about an hour, we came to the master and old grandmas grave, a year didnt come, graves are covered with wild grass, you well after the division of labor, began to busy, everything is in place, we started to burn money, along with the smoke, I seem to see their shadow, they told me: study hard and cherish life.

Yes, life is short, happy every day to live, to continuously surpass ourselves, surpass ourselves, dream will come true; The superego, the dream into power; Beyond the self, to create beautiful life! I think life is constantly transcend self, beyond the dream!!!!! Panoramic view of the city house on the mountain, the mountain was full of golden golden in the rape, deep breath, deep and remote light fragrance, fresh air, the flowers with irresistible power explanation of the meaning of life!

“清明时节雨纷纷”这句话被奇妙的大自然所印证了，昨天下了淅淅沥沥的小雨，我的心就像大石头一样沉重，因为要给老爷和老奶扫墓，以前，我不懂清明节真正的意义，直到今天扫完墓后，我才懂得了清明节的真正意义!

清晨的七点，我们准备给老爷和老奶扫墓，扫墓对我来说可是件新鲜的事，我们拿上工具，出发了。

走在蜿蜒的山路上，我已迫不及待了，大约过了一个小时，我们来到了老爷和老奶的墓前，一年没来，坟墓上长满了荒芜的草，大家做好分工后，纷纷开始忙碌起来，一切就绪后，我们开始烧纸钱，随着袅袅炊烟，我仿佛看到了他们的影子，他们告诉我：好好学习，珍惜生命。

是啊，人的一生苦短，每天都要活得快乐，要不断超越自我，超越自我，梦想终会实现;超越自我，梦想化为动力;超越自我，创造美丽人生!我认为生命就在不断的超越自我，超越梦想!在山上，城市的房子尽收眼底，山中开满了金黄金光的油菜花，深呼一口，幽淡的花香，清新的空气，那些花以不可抗的动力诠释着生命的意义!

由于近一段时间，非常烦闷，在清明节假期，非常想出去散散心，于是和几位同事商量着这几天去哪玩，刚好有一好友从太原发出了邀请，所以就把山西太原做为这次旅游的目标。目标定好之后就制定了行程安排，按照计划第一天先到太原的晋祠博物馆去看一下，把太原当做一个中转站，我自认为是个相当不错的选择。

清明节早上，五点半在学校门口集合后，我们一行7人、两辆车就出发了，一路上全是高速，而且不收过路费，甚是惬意。老孙开车不经意间就达到了160码，我赶紧通知他降速，被电子眼拍到可不是什么好事儿，更重要的是我们的安全问题。经过四个多小时的跋涉中午11点多一点就到了太原市小店收费站，出站后朋友已经在那里等候了，呵呵，有朋友就是好，我们不仅不用操心吃喝住的问题，而且出行还有了免费的导游。

吃过午饭，就直奔第一目标——晋祠公园。我的车在停车场还没有停稳呢就有好几个导游围了过来，为了能更清楚的了解晋祠的历史这一次我没有吝啬，从几个导游中选了一个看似比较实诚的中年人做我们的导游。我们迫不及待的跟着导游进入了景区，导游可能是想再接一单生意，所以走的飞快，想好好拍几张照片的时间都不给我们，晋祠博物馆的门前不收费的景区也没来得及细看。不过这个导游的嘴倒是没停着一直在讲有关晋祠的历史及文化，不一会就到了晋祠博物馆的售票处，匆匆的买过票后走进晋祠，第一个感觉就是古老和苍劲。外面公园里满目的鲜花是现代的灿烂，而晋祠里的苍松劲柏就是古代的沧桑。伫立古树之下，心都能沉静下来。圣母殿前的周柏不知是何年所植(据说已有3200多年的历史了)，已经倾侧，僵卧于殿前，却僵而不死，老而弥坚，在它旁边支撑的它的那棵柏树是它的儿子也有一千多岁了。其他古树更是苍苍翠翠，给晋祠带来许多阴凉。其中有一棵槐树据说是隋唐年间的古树。

晋祠本来是为纪念周武王次子姬虞而建，不过自从北宋仁宗时期修建了祭祀姬虞母亲的圣母殿以后，晋祠的格局就变成了围绕圣母殿来设置。圣母殿看起来十分古朴甚至略有残旧之感，据说它是中国现存最古老的木建筑之一，这恰恰是我所爱，因为那代表了时间的印迹和历史的味道。中国木料建筑的保护难度，一直高于西方的石料建筑，而在国内，北方木建筑又比南方似乎要保存得更好一些，这是不是跟北方的天气较南方干燥有关呢?可能吧。圣母殿里有几十尊宋代侍女雕塑，是晋祠三绝之一，不过为了保护文物，殿内已经不允许游人进入，导游说其中有一尊雕像是最绝的，是一半脸儿哭、一半脸儿笑，还说梅兰芳曾经在殿里住了一个月就是为了学习这一表情，可惜我只能在殿门口往里看上一看，根本看不到那半边脸。那些古代的雕像，正在幽暗的殿内和光同尘，时光悠悠。晋祠虽然残旧，但色彩却依然斑斓，特别是大殿的屋顶，是比较少有的翠绿色，配上橙色的殿壁，煞是华美。殿侧林立着古碑，第一座就是明成化年间的皇碑。

Those who live in cities around the world are likely going to have similar

experiences about living and the associated challenges regardless of their

location on the globe. Most of these challenges revolve around stress which

studies have shown is a part of living. Regardless of what you do and your

profession and place stress is not avoidable but could be minimized. Those who

see stress as an enemy will probably live an irritable life which is quite

unnecessary.

How then do we cope with stress? I am going to give you tips that have

helped and are still helping me in coping with life in the city of Lagos

Nigeria, the most populous African city, where orientation of people is quite

different in many ways about stress and living with others.

清明节的习俗除了讲究禁火、扫墓，还有踏青、荡秋千、蹴鞠、打马球、插柳等一系列风俗体育活动。下面语文迷小编精心为大家整理了关于清明节习俗的英语作文，希望对你有帮助。

The Qingming (Pure Brightness) Festival is one of the 24 seasonal division points in China, falling on April 4-6 each year. After the festival, the temperature will rise up and rainfall increases. It is the high time for spring plowing and sowing. But the Qingming Festival is not only a seasonal point to guide farm work, it is more a festival of commemoration.

The Qingming Festival sees a combination of sadness and happiness.

This is the most important day of sacrifice. Both the Han and minority ethnic groups at this time offer sacrifices to their ancestors and sweep the tombs of the diseased. Also, they will not cook on this day and only cold food is served.

The Hanshi (Cold Food) Festival was usually one day before the Qingming Festival. As our ancestors often extended the day to the Qingming, they were later combined.

On each Qingming Festival, all cemeteries are crowded with people who came to sweep tombs and offer sacrifices. Traffic on the way to the cemeteries becomes extremely jammed. The customs have been greatly simplified today. After slightly sweeping the tombs, people offer food, flowers and favorites of the dead, then burn incense and paper money and bow before the memorial tablet.

In contrast to the sadness of the tomb sweepers, people also enjoy hope of Spring on this day. The Qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines brightly, the trees and grass become green and nature is again lively. Since ancient times, people have followed the custom of Spring outings. At this time tourists are everywhere.

People love to fly kites during the Qingming Festival. Kite flying is actually not limited to the Qingming Festival. Its uniqueness lies in that people fly kites not during the day, but also at night. A string of little lanterns tied onto the kite or the thread look like shining stars, and therefore, are called "gods lanterns."

The Qingming Festival is also a time to plant trees, for the survival rate of saplings is high and trees grow fast later. In the past, the Qingming Festival was called "Arbor Day". But since 1979, "Arbor Day" was settled as March 12 according to the Gregorian calendar.

In recent years, the forests have been getting smaller and smaller for more

and more people cut down trees for money. As trees grow naturally, people dont

need to invest anything on them. But cutting down trees has destroyed our

nature. We have already seen the bad consequence. For example, we always suffer

from the flood and drought disaster; many animals are facing the danger of dying

out, because their habitats have been destroyed; deserts are expanding, and

sandstorms are emerging. Our environment has been changed from bad to worse due

to the reduction of forests. Thus, the government should appeal people that

cutting down trees breaks the balance of our nature. Those who continue to cut

down trees should be punished severely.

With the development of information industry, there are more and more

people shopping online. Shopping online means shopping on the Internet without

going out. Therefore, on the one hand, shopping online has its advantage. One

the other hand, shopping on line also has its disadvantage.

First of all, shopping online is very convenient. People can buy thing only

they have a computer, which can surf the Internet. They don’t need to go out on

a rainy day or under the shining sun. Meanwhile, people can save their time to

finish their work or other things. On the contrary, as people just decide what

they buy depending on the picture placed by the shop owner, they can’t see the

quality before they receive the product. Sometimes people maybe buy the things

are in low quality, or some fake products.

In general, shopping online has its advantage and disadvantage. In my

opinion, I prefer shopping online than shopping on the street.

Every person needs sleep everyday. But with the high development of

society, most people have more and more things to do and have less time to

sleep. As a result, many people are lack of sleep. For a short time, they may

not realize the bad side of it, but it will bring something bad for them after a

long term. First of all, lack of sleep will do harm to people’s look. If they do

not sleep enough, they will get black eyes and bad skin easily, which will make

people look no so beautiful. Secondly, lack of sleep is bad for the spiritual

outlook. A person who lacking of sleep always looks tired and has no power to do

things. Last, not enough sleep for a long time will have bad influence of

thought. They always can’t be active in mind.

Many people ask what happiness is. I don’t know why there are many people

asking this question, because I think happiness is simple. As for me, I feel

happy when I do a good job in my study. Teachers praise me and my parents are

happy. Or, when I help others I feel happy. I am proud of myself. Besides,

playing with my classmates or friends is happy, too. We always have a great time

together. From above, they are all happiness.

Since we went to school, we have been educated to be polite, no matter to

the young or old people. People follow the manner rules and have a nice

communication between each other, but some people ignore the rules and they

treat their rude behaviors as something cool. Today, people advocate the

individuality, so the young generation wants to do something different and catch

peoples attention. For example, they dont care other peoples feeling and

criticize others as they like, or just interrupt when other people is talking,

they just show what they want to say and they believe they are special and cool.

This is very rude behavior that they dont respect others and have the wrong

idea about individuality. We can do something special on the base of respect

others and follow the rules, or we are just the rude people.

Mothers Day Mother’s Day is a holiday when children honor their mothers with

cards, gifts and flowers. In many countries, such as Denmark, Finland, Italy,

Turkey, Australia and the US, people cel lebrate Mother’s Day on the second

Sunday in May while many other countries of the world celebrate their own

Mother’s day at different times through out the year.

One of the best ways to celebrate Mother’s Day is to give your mom the day

off. Let her relax with the rest of the family doing all the housework. Usually,

dad and the kids will let mom sleep late that morning as they go into the

kitchen to prepare her favourite breakfast. Never forget to place a vase with a

single flower on the table beside the food. The kids can pick up the flower from

the garden or buy one from the shop. Arrange everything nicely before mom wakes

up. Some families will carry the food and mom’s favourite sections from the

newspaper to her bedroom so that mom can have breakfast in bed. Presents and

cards from the kids can be handed to mom by themselves or just placed on the

dining table.

After breakfast, go anywhere mom likes to go. Shopping, swimming or going on

a picnic in the garden. Make a special Mother’s Day dinner or take mom out for a

great meal in a famous restaurant she loves most.

Anyway ,let mom enjoy the whole day and feel your love, and then the Mother’s

Day can be a good one. As Mother’s Day is around the corner, it’s time to take

actions!
