The Dragon Boat Festival is one of three major Chinese holidays, along with the Spring and Moon Festivals. Of the three, it is possibly the oldest, dating back to the Warring States Period in 227 B.C. The festival commemorates Qu Yuan, a minister in the service of the Chu Emperor. Despairing over corruption at court, Qu threw himself into a river. Townspeople jumped into their boats and tried in vain to save him. Then, hoping to distract hungry fish from his body, the people scattered rice on the water.

端午节与春节和中秋节并列为中国三大节日。这三个节日中,它可能是最古老的一个,可以追溯到公元前227年的战国时代。这个节日是为了纪念楚国的大夫屈原,他因为对朝廷的腐朽****感到绝望而投河自尽。镇上的人纷纷冲上船去救他,却没有成功。后来大家把米撒到水里,希望把饥饿的鱼群从他的躯体边引开。

攻克英语写作:滴水穿石,积累成章

考研作文作为考查考生语言表达等综合能力的题型,是考研英语的压轴戏。考生在日常复习中应更趋向于积累。考研作文的复习和提高是与一些科学的学习方法和有效的学习技巧分不开的,在此,万学海文考研英语辅导专家提供大家一些练习方法及技巧,希望对同学们有所帮助。

考研作文分为大、小两类。小作文多以应用文体裁为主,例如求职信、感谢信、辞职信,道歉信等,这类作文不需要复杂华丽的文采修饰,表意明确就可以了;大作文的题型多是通过图片或者提示文字,要求考生完成提示所透视出来的问题。命题范围,从近几年看,都比较倾向于当前社会热门话题或观念。

一、欲速则不达,步步行进

想要达到一定的程度,首先要向这个程度看齐。就写作来说,如果你想将自己的作文水平提高到一个质的飞跃,首先你要懂得去吸取别人文章中的精华。这个吸取精华的过程就是阅读。只有多阅读,才能够培养起良好的语感,才会知道如何去构思,如何去质疑别人的观点,表达清楚自己的意思。正所谓"读书破万卷,下笔如有神"。无论何时,大家都勿急躁,因为"跑"得好的前提是"走",

作文这种慢火候才能提高的题更是如此,一步一个脚印才是写作稳步提高的策略。

近些年写作考题的内容和主题,基本都与当年的热点话题有一定的关系,所以平时多阅读英语报纸、杂志,能够帮助你掌握更多的话题资源。对于比较热点、比较重要的主题,可以有目的地进行搜集整理。阅读的过程也应该讲究方法,应该以泛读与精读结合的方式进行学习。一些好的文章建议你读过以后做英文阅读笔记(即观后感)。在读与写的过程中,你的写作水平自然会得到快速提高。

二、在研读中背记

除了读与写,还要进行适当的背。背诵是积极备战快速提高写作成绩的一条捷径。建议考生可以选择历年真题中的写作佳文,先是研究,思考人家是怎么构思,怎么写的,获得高分的闪光点在哪。再在理解的基础上记忆,更能够在无形中增强你的表达能力。同学们也可以拿一些英语原著名篇来读、背,这样可以加强自己的语感,使自己的表达更加地道。

三、每周一练,积累成章

表达能力需要考生平时多一点练习,给自己制定一个写作计划。一周至少练习一篇文章。在加强写作练习之后,你的文章才能够 "成章"。因此,实际动手的能力至关重要。平时训练的重点应该锁定在文章是否切题,行文是否表意明确、通顺,有无语法错误等。另外,一定要给每一次行文限定一个可行的时间。并且,按照这个时间严格要求自己完成。

如果你能够找到范文,然后在练习之后进行比较,效果会更加明显。假使没有范文作为标样,建议你可以找英语水平较好的同学看一看。也许评看你作文的这个考生英语水平不是很高,但个人看别人文章的缺点很容易看出来。如果条件允许,找老师请教一下最好。

掌握好的方法加之持之以恒,相信最后的成功一定属于你,继续坚定的考研信念,自信满满的走下去。

Everyone has his ideals. A businessman wishes to make greater profit; a farmer expects plumper harvests; a student tries to learn more and better.

However, one should be sensible about whether his ideal is well founded or not. If it is, one has to plan and work hard for its realization. Effort, skill and persistence are all necessary. And very often, one has to get help from others, including advice and support in one form or another.

My ideal is to become a doctor. It is said that the field of medicine is a well-paid profession, but I take it as a lofty profession entrusted with saving peoples lives.

篇20:英语介绍樱花

全文共 3231 字

+ 加入清单

Sakura is the Japanese name for ornamental cherry trees, Prunus serrulata, and their blossoms. Cherry fruit (known as sakuranbo) come from a different species of tree.

Sakura, a well-known and ubiquitous symbol of Japan, are represented on all manner of consumer goods, including kimono, stationery, and dishware. Cherry blossoms are an enduring metaphor for the ephemeral nature of life, and as such are frequently depicted in art. There is at least one popular folk song, originally meant for the shakuhachi (bamboo flute), titled "Sakura", as well as a number of pop songs. "Sakura" is also a common Japanese female name.

Sakura is indigenous to the Himalayas and east Asia. Some trees can be found in China and Korea but the largest number and variety of sakura, more than 305 species, can be seen in Japan. Many of them were artificially hybridized or grafted by the Japanese many centuries ago.

"On the other hand, in China, cherry blossom is the symbol of feminine dominance, female beauty and sexuality. Additionally, the cherry blossom is the Chinese symbol of feminine principle and it also symbolizes love in the language of herbs. Interestingly, cherry blossom is the flower of the April in China, whereas in Japan, it is wisteria." Spring flowers of Japan

Japans most beloved variety is the Somei Yoshino. Its flowers are nearly pure white, tinged with the palest pink, especially near the stem. The flowers bloom, and usually fall within a week, before the leaves come out. Therefore, the trees look nearly white from top to bottom. The variety takes its name from the village of Somei (now part of Toshima in Tokyo). It was developed in the mid- to late-19th century at the end of the Edo period and the beginning of the Meiji period. The Somei Yoshino is so widely associated with cherry blossoms that jidaigeki and other works of fiction often depict the variety in the Edo period or earlier; such depictions are anachronisms.

Other categories include yamazakura, yaezakura, and shidarezakura. The yaezakura have large flowers, thick with rich pink petals. The shidarezakura, or weeping cherry, has branches that fall like those of a weeping willow, bearing cascades of pink flowers.

Annually, the Japanese Meteorological Agency and general public track the sakura zensen, or Cherry-Blossom Front. Nightly forecasts follow the weather segment of news programs. The blossoming begins in Okinawa in January, and typically reaches Kyoto and Tokyo at the end of March or the beginning of April. Then it proceeds north, arriving in Hokkaidō a few weeks later. Japanese pay close attention to these forecasts. They will go to parks, shrines and temples with family and friends and hold a "flower viewing party" known as hanami. Hanami festivals celebrate the beauty of sakura, and for many, it is a chance to relax and enjoy the beautiful view. Hanami custom in Japan dates back to many centuries ago. It is witten in Nihon Shoki that the Hanami festival were already held in the 3rd century.

Most Japanese schools and public buildings have sakura trees outside of them. Since the fiscal and school year both begin in April, in many parts of Honshū, the first day of work or school will coincide with the cherry blossom season.
