请用下面所给的提示词写一篇短文。
提示词: give up concentrate on be (become)interested in
Li Xiaohu spent too much time playing computer games and he fell behind others. As a good/close friend of his, I must do something to help him.
First, I think it’s very important for him to learn lessons well. He should spend most of his time on his study instead of computer games. Secondly, I must tell him that playing computer games too much is bad for his health, especially for his eyes. So he must give it up. I can play more sports with him after school. Maybe he will become more interested in sports than computer games. And then Ill ask him to concentrate more on his study. Of course, I will try my best to help him with all his subjects. I think I can do it in many fun ways and let him find much fun in studying. At the same time, Ill ask both his parents and our teachers to help him, too. If I try these, Im sure he will make great progress soon.

篇6:介绍你的家乡作文
全文共 903 字
+ 加入清单我的家乡大简是一个水乡古镇,比起一些大城市来说,大简显得是那么微不足道。可水乡古镇每天都吸引了无数的游客前来观光游览。
大简的河是大简的筋脉,大河,小河纵横贯穿整个大简,你在任何地方都可以看见河流。微波荡漾,河中鱼儿游来游去,仿佛是在倾听游人的脚步声;一会儿,鱼儿又钻下水底,似乎在和嬉戏玩耍。河面上,轮船发出呜呜的响声行驶着,好象在说:你瞧!我在水上行驶得多快!在东市河,你就看不到大轮船的踪迹。一艘艘乌蓬船在河上缓慢地行驶,一位衣着朴素的船夫,站在船尾,眼睛望着前方,双手握住船桨,悠悠地摇着。船桨在手中摇动,水面扩散出一道道微波。这乌蓬船比起那大河上的轮船,让人感到一种悠闲自在的感觉。
有河必有桥,大简的桥主要以石板桥为主。石板桥都是拱形的,在桥的半圆形桥洞上往往写着桥的名字。桥,对所有人来说是再熟悉不过了,可大简的桥并不是那么普普通通,而是饱经风霜。桥上雕刻的花纹已经模糊不清,几棵有顽强生命力的小草在石缝里茁壮成长。走上石桥,迎面吹来了一阵微风,让人感到清爽自在。
大简的弄也是非常的多,主要分部在东,南,西,北栅,其中众所周知的是已经成为旅游景点的东栅弄堂。东栅的弄堂只有两米左右的宽度,两边那一幢幢陈久的民宅,并排的通向弄堂的尽头。走在弄堂的石板路上,抬起头望望蓝天,天变得又细又长,云好像寄害羞似的,只露出一点点。早晨,当黎明的第一缕阳光照亮被黑夜笼罩的大地时,沉睡中的弄堂慢慢地苏醒起来,苏睡的第一声就是的露水滴在地上的声音,接着,鸟儿欢快的歌唱,人们从鸟儿的歌声中醒了,弄堂一下子热闹了,上班的上班,洗衣服的洗衣服,一片忙碌的景象。中午,酷热的太阳对着大地发出一阵又一阵的热量,可弄堂里太阳光一点儿也晒不进去,因为房屋像一排排卫士阻挡着酷热的太阳光的入侵。傍晚,太阳落山了,夕阳将弄堂染成了红色,弄堂里人们聊天,乘凉,夜幕渐渐地降临,弄堂里人们都已回屋睡觉了,弄堂又安静了下来,等待着明天的到来。
大简还有一位伟大的文学家彭俊贤,他的文学作品至今还是人们最喜欢看的书之一。还有一些著名景点,如修真馆,茅盾故居,林家铺子,百床馆,酒作坊等等。这些都是旅客必去的地方。
大简是我家,我爱我的家乡!

+ 加入清单He always rose early to enjoy at least two hours of solitude in the house
and garden before the rest of the family came down In winter he spent most of
the time reading and writing. In sum mer he liked to get out of doors to work in
the kitchen garden or to take the dog for a walk in the neighbouring woods and
fields Whatever the weather, there was plenty to occupy him.
Although he was a creature of habit, there seemed to be an infinite variety
in his pursuits. He wrote book reviews regularly for two of the national
weeklies. He worked conscientiously his special subject, Indian History, and was
thus one of the world authorities on it;
he collected modern abstract paintings and so had a circle of friends
amongst artists and sculptors; there was hardly anything he did not know about
traditional jazz and he often entertained both British and America n jazz
musicians He was a superb cook and knew a lot about French and German food.
His family adored him and in a sense he was spoiled by them. At first
glance you would have taken him for a retired army officer-his bearing was
erect, his hair was cut short, he was fussy about his clothes, which were always
neat, clean and conventional. He liked to keep fit, and this was reflected in
his clear, steady blue eyes and healthy suntanned complexion. He hardly ever
watched TV, but enjoyed a good film and an occasional evening at the
theatre.

我爱我的家乡,因为这里有许多的风景名胜,有风景如画的双湖公园,自然天成的九龙口,绿意盎然的西塘河风光带。最有名的就是九龙口了,那里花草树木都生机勃勃,还有一个动人的传说呢,很久很久以前,人间有一条恶蟒在这儿兴风作浪,使老百姓不得安宁。后来惊动了玉皇大帝,玉皇大帝十分着急,就派出了九条神龙与恶蟒搏斗,形成了打斗的痕迹,由此,就变成了九条河流。
我爱我的家乡,因为这里有一个风景如画的双湖公园,那里有清澈见底的湖水,蓝天白云,茂密的芦苇,成群的鸭鹅,构成了一幅水乡美景图。坐上小船,划到荷花池里去采莲蓬,剥开枯萎的莲蓬露出了嫩白的莲子,让人真想咬上一口。再划到菱角丛中,去采菱角,翻开菱角的反面可以看到一颗颗像绿元宝似的菱角,如果你运气好的话,还可以看到一个个圆溜溜的鸟蛋呢!

我爱我的家乡!

“变了,变了,变了……”在匆匆结束探亲之旅返回天上时,他们三个嘴里不停地嘟囔着。

Directions:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic:
Pollution: An Increasing Concern in China You should write at least120 words following the outline below in Chinese.
1. 中国的污染的现状
2. 造成污染的原因
3. 解决的办法
Pollution: An Increasing Concern in China
It is reported that ten big cities in China are being ranked among the top twenty cities with the highest pollution index in the world. This means it is high time we did something to bring the situation under control.Many factors are contributing to the deteriorating situation: industrial wastes pumped into the air, the lakes and rivers; a increasing number of automobiles crowding into the streets; the widespread use of plastic bags etc.
To my view, stiffer laws and regulations must be implemented to check pollution. Industries that release wastes without permission should be heavily fined. Cars should be equipped to minimize the exhaust they release into the air. And the use of plastic bags and disposable meal boxes should be banned. What’s more, the media should play an important role in implanting a sense of environmental consciousness into people’s mind. If everybody works toward a common goal of making the environment better, we can create a cleaner and lovelier world for us and for the coming generation.

+ 加入清单Henan has a humid warm-temperate climate. Dry and windy in winter and spring, the province is hot and rainy in summer and bakes in strong sunlight during the autumn months. Rainfall averages about 600-1000 millimeters increasing from north to south, as does the annual temperature which increases from about 12.8C in the north to 15.5C in the south.
Henan province is considered the cradle of Chinese civilization due to its location on the Yellow River. This rich historic heritage has endowed Henan with numerous historic treasures, from primitive dwellings to earliest wheel thrown pottery. The remains of some of the earliest human settlements have been unearthed here, including the over 7000-year-old Peiligang Culture Site, the 6000-year-old Yangshao Culture Remains and the 5000-year-old Dahe Culture Remains. All these cultural remains have profound significance in the history of Chinese civilization.
Luoyang City has been the capital of nine dynasties since the time of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (770BC-221BC). There are many historical sites to be viewed in Luoyang as well as the opportunity to purchase replicas of the famed Tang three-glaze horses. Luoyangs Longmen Grottoes, famous for its grand treasure trove of Chinese Buddhist statues, are located 12km (7 miles) south of Luoyang. First sculpted and chiseled around 493 AD when the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534) was moved from Datong City to Luoyang, the grottoes of Luoyang house an awe-inspiring collection of sculpted Buddha and other religious subjects.
Kaifeng, one of the ancient capitals, also boasts the following buildings worthy of a visit: Iron Pagoda (Tie Ta) of the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127), Dragon Pavilion (Long Ting) - site of imperial palace of the Song and Jin dynasties - and the 1400-year-old Xiangguo Temple which is one of the most famous Buddhist temples in China. Also on view in Kaifeng are ruins of the Shang Dynasty, an important part of human cultural and historic heritage. The Shang Dynasty Ruins, also known as the Yin Ruins, are famous because of the unique style of the large palace and its grand mausoleums, in which emperors of the Shang Dynasty are buried. The bronze vessels of the Shang Dynasty, which were both finely decorated and popularly used by the citizens of the Shang Dynasty, are well-known at home and abroad.
