二、

During the 15 days from New Years Eve to Lantern Festival, Beijing was affected by smog for more than half the time, because of which people suffered a lot. On the road people drove slowly because they could not see clearly. People also suffered from many illnesses caused by smog.

The smog in Beijing has been caused by many factors, in which the increase of cars in the city area plays an important role. The carssend off a lot of poisonous gases, which in turn adds to the already seriousair pollution.

In my opinion, the number of cars should be limited.We should call on the people to use more public transport. Only in this way canwe expect to have more sunny days.

篇12:我教爷爷说英文_写事作文

星期天,我去了乡下看望爷爷奶奶,无事可干的我竟然心血来潮教爷爷说起英文了。

下午,我闲着的没事就问爷爷:“爷爷,你小时候上过学吗?”

“没有,我小时候家里穷,没钱上学,只好种地。”

没上过学!这一下让我想到了一个妙不可言的好主意——教爷爷说英文。反正闲着也是闲着,干脆让爷爷也增长点外国知识。

我便对爷爷说了这件事,爷爷笑着说:“好啊、好啊,孙女教我学英文。”于是,我从最基本的教起,我大声念了一句:“Hellow”。爷爷笑哈哈地跟着说:“哗啰”。我纠正道:“是Hellow,不是哗啰。再跟我念一遍,Hellow”。爷爷还是笑嘻嘻说成了“哗啰”。我有点生气了,转过身去不理睬爷爷。爷爷似乎知道我不高兴了,不知从哪来变出来一个红彤彤的大苹果,伸到我的面前对我说:“哗啰,吃‘冰果’喽!”。估计爷爷想说苹果的英文,可是又不会说,所以自己瞎编了一个,读成了“冰果”。这下我忍不住“扑哧”一声笑了出来,我从爷爷手里拿了苹果,我看了看苹果,大口大口地吃了起来。

“甜不甜?”爷爷小声地问。( www.sanWEn.com)

“甜!不过爷爷,苹果的英文叫Apple”我说。

“安破。”爷爷乐呵呵跟着学了一句。我也不知道为什么,这次我没生爷爷的气。倒觉得爷爷真有意思。

这次教英文虽然效果不佳,但能换回来我和爷爷的欢笑,我觉得挺值得!

"La Traviata" is the most successful Dumas pen works. It tells the story of a dirty whore in the eyes of the world with a romantic, inexperienced youth poignant love story.

The theme of "love" is an indispensable part of literary creation. Depicted in Dumass love and will not feel embarrassed, shy, and I read his description in, see is sincere and pure love.

I was moved by the image of the heroine, Margaret. The author was not afraid of her prostitutes habits: loved luxury, dissolute life, often binge drinking. It is the real image that makes me feel the truth of the story and the delicacy of the emotion. On the other hand, the author goes deep into the inner world of the character. The life of merry is a reflection of Margarets abandonment of life and the reality of ambition. Similarly, Margaret also has some simple things. She pursues this sincere love, is willing to sacrifice herself, abandon the luxurious life, and also with the beloved. Everywhere for Valentines Valentines sake, do not want to spend a penny, so she sold her carriage, jewelry, shawls. In the end, even for the future of the lover and for the marriage of the beloved sister, give up the happiness that he has already got. You say that this woman is not worthy of love?

"In a Zhang Yan hues oval, inlaid with two black eyes, like painting Daimei - curved, general: this pair of eyes covered in thick eyelashes, when the eyelash falls, red cheeks seemed to cast a shadow on the nose, delicate, graceful, full of aura, nose a little outward open mouth: well proportioned, soft lips enlight gracefully, then revealing a white teeth, a layer of hair and skin colour, like people without hands touched the peach." this is the same sweater Dumas description of the Margaret trade, meticulous, clear and vivid.

In the article there is such a scene: Margaret is an alcoholic, put his body down, pain, heartache Armand Margaret, hold her hand, put it on his lips, two drops for a long time could not stop the tears dripping wet her hand. Armand loved tears and wept for Margaret. She didnt care for her tears. Armand didnt retain his feelings to express his feelings. Margaret was so touched by the fact that his work was so successful through the description of the task and the portrait of love.

Such a sincere, lovely woman, the last fate is miserable: soon after leaving her lover, she dies due to pain. When they die, they rush to collect accounts and interest immediately, and rush to auction her articles.

It is truth that gender discrimination still exists when female comes to find work, some females never mention her gender on the resume, just to make sure that the employers will give them the chances to get the interview.

事实上,当女性去找工作的时候,性别歧视仍然存在,一些女性从来不在简历上提到自己的性别,仅仅是为了确保雇主能给她们机会面试。女性应该提高她们的竞争力,这样她们就会有的工作机会。

First, the female should show their positive attitudes toward the life and work. Female students should see their advantages clearly before hunting for a job, and highlight it in their resumes. For instance, they might emphasize that they are careful and considerate in work, patient and cooperate with colleagues as well. But the positive toward life and work brings them to a high level, which will impress the employer.

Second, female students must be confident. Lots of big companies like to hold a group discussion to select people, those who are silent and find it difficult to get involved in the discussion will not be considered. The employers think such people are not confident and won’t do well in the work.

第二,女学生必须自信。很多大型公司喜欢举行小组讨论来选人,那些保持沉默和难以融入讨论的人是不被考虑在内的。雇佣者认为这样的人不自信,无法胜任工作。

It is necessary for women to improve competiveness, if they want to go further than males. The positive attitude and being confident will let female win more chances.

Nowadays,with the rapid development of our society,almost all the graduates have to face a choice:to get a job first or to find the job you like first?As far as I am concerned,the graduates should get a job first and then choose the job they like.The reasons can be listed as follows:

First of all,for many students,even they themselves don’t know what kind of job they want to choose.For these students,to get a job first can help them find out their favorite job through trying different work.What’s more,the graduates are all under great employment pressure.There are thousands of graduates need to find their jobs every year.So if the graduates don’t get their jobs as soon as they leave the school,they will miss the best chance to get a job.Last but not least,one can accumulate experience and broaden horizons in his or her first job.It’s certain that these experiences will contribute to future job.As the famous saying goes “One should apply theory to practice.”,students should apply what they have learned in class to their jobs,thus enhancing their working skills.

Above all,nowadays under the greater employment pressure,the graduates should get a job first and then to choose the job they like.Since students can have a better understanding of what they like and gain experience in the first job.

篇19:英文亲人书信格式

全文共 1837 字

+ 加入清单

导语:书信是相隔较远,暂时见不到面的人们相互交流情感与思想的工具。书信拥有悠久的历史且世界各国的人们都有使用。书信在人类的交流与沟通的历史上占有重要地位。下面是小编整理的英文亲人书信格式,希望对大家有所帮助。

1、信头(Heading)

指发信人的姓名(单位名称)、地址和日期,一般写在信纸的右上角。一般公函或商业信函的信纸上都印有单位或公司的名称、地址、电话号码等,因此就只需在信头下面的右边写上写信日期就可以了。

英文地址的写法与中文完全不同,地址的名称按从小到大的顺序:第一行写门牌号码和街名;第二行写县、市、省、州、邮编、国名;然后再写日期。标点符号一般在每一行的末尾都不用,但在每一行的之间,该用的还要用,例如在写日期的时候。

日期的写法,如1997年7月30日,英文为:July 30,1997(最为普遍); July 30th,1997;30th July,1997等。1997不可写成97。

2、信内地址(Inside Address)

在一般的社交信中,信内收信人的地址通常省略,但是在公务信函中不能。将收信人的姓名、地址等写在信头日期下方的左角上,要求与对信头的要求一样,不必再写日期。

3、称呼(Salutation)

是写信人对收信人的称呼用语。位置在信内地址下方一、二行的地方,从该行的顶格写起,在称呼后面一般用逗号(英国式),也可以用冒号(美国式)。

(1)写给亲人、亲戚和关系密切的朋友时,用Dear或My dear再加上表示亲属关系的称呼或直称其名(这里指名字,不是姓氏)。例如:My dear father,Dear Tom等。

(2)写给公务上的信函用Dear Madam,Dear Sir或Gentleman(Gentlemen)。注意:Dear纯属公务上往来的客气形式。Gentlemen总是以复数形式出现,前不加Dear,是Dear Sir的复数形式。

(3)写给收信人的信,也可用头衔、职位、职称、学位等再加姓氏或姓氏和名字。例如:Dear Prof. Tim Scales, Dear Dr.John Smith。

4、正文(Body of the Letter)

位置在下面称呼语隔一行,是信的核心部分。因此要求正文层次分明、简单易懂。和中文信不同的是,正文中一般不用Hello!(你好!)

正文有缩进式和齐头式两种。每段书信第一行的第一个字母稍微向右缩进些,通常以五个字母为宜,每段第二行从左面顶格写起,这就是缩进式。

但美国人写信各段落往往不用缩进式,用齐头式,即每一行都从左面顶格写起。商务信件大都采用齐头式的写法。

5、结束语(Complimentary Close)

在正文下面的一、二行处,从信纸的中间偏右处开始,第一个词开头要大写,句末用逗号。不同的对象,结束语的写法也不同。

(1)写给家人、亲戚,用Your loving grandfather,Lovingly yours,Lovingly等;

(2)写给熟人、朋友,用Yours cordially,Yours affectionately等;

(3)写业务信函用Truely yours(Yours truely),Faithfully yours(Yours faithfully)等;

(4)对上级、长辈用Yours obediently(Obediently yours),Yours respectfully(Respectfully yours)等。

6、签名(Signature)

低于结束语一至二行,从信纸中间偏右的地方开始,在结束语的正下方,在签完名字的下面还要有用打字机打出的名字,以便识别。职务、职称可打在名字的下面。当然,写给亲朋好友的信,就不必再打了。

7、附言(Postscript)

一封信写完了,突然又想起遗漏的事情,这时用P.S.表示,再写上遗漏的话即可,要长话短说。通常在信末签名下面几行的左方,应于正文齐头。

注意:在正式的信函中,应避免使用附言。

8、附件(Enclosure)

信件如果有附件,可在信纸的左下角,注上Encl:或Enc:,例如:Encl:2 photos(内附两张照片)。如果福建附件不止一项,应写成Encl:或Encs。

我们有时可看到在称呼与正文之间有Re:或Subject:(事由)字样。一般在信纸的中间,也可与“称呼”对齐。还应在底下加横线,以引起读信人的注意,使收信人便于在读信之前就可了解信中的主要内容。事由一般在公务信函中使用,也可以省略。

In the Warring States Period, a man in the state of Chu was offering a sacrifice(祭品) to his ancestors. After the ceremony, the man gave a beaker of wine to his servants.

The servants thought that there was not enought wine for all of them, and decided to each draw a picture of snake; the one who finished the picture first would get the wine.

One of them drew very rapidly. Seeing that the others were still busy drawing, he added feet to the snake.

At this moment, another man finished, snatched the beaker(烧杯,大口杯) and drank the wine, saying,"A snake doesnt have feet. How can you add feet to a snake?"

This idiom refers to ruining a venture by doing unnecessary and surplus things.
