My summer holiday begun on July 7th.I love summer holiday because I dont have to go to school and I can enjoy myself with my friends.I often spend the mornings doing my homework.And I always watch TV in the afternoon at home because its very hot outside.And in the evening,I go swimming with my family and then hang out with my friends.I love swimming very much.

My plan for August is travelling.I travel with my family every summer holiday.I like travelling because I can go to different places and meet different people.Sometimes I make good friends during the journey.And its very sad to say goodbye to them when the journey ends.

我的暑假开始于7月7日。我喜欢暑假,因为我不用去上学,我和我的朋友可以享受自己。我经常在早上做作业。下午,我总是看电视在家里,因为外面太热了。在晚上,我和我的家人一起去游泳,然后和我的朋友出去玩。我非常喜欢游泳。

我计划八月是旅游。我每个暑假旅游与我的家人。我喜欢旅行,因为我可以去不同的地方,遇到不同的人。有时我让好朋友在旅途中。而且很伤心的旅程结束的时候向他们说再见。

在我们作为学生的生涯中，可能最让我们激动万分的不过寒暑假了。寒假虽冷，但寒风根本无法吹熄我们对春节的热情。跟其相比之下，暑假的诱惑力可是它的好几倍呢！暑假虽热，但烈阳根本晒不干我们内心涌动的浪潮。

暑期来了，对，它现在就在我身边。在我正想享受这暑假的美好生活时，突然意识到明年就要升高三了。为了在开学期赶其他同学，我必须利用暑假的时间来充好电。这下好了，之前对于暑假生活的憧憬的泡沫现已经破灭了，暑期的行程貌似都已经被我自己安排得满满的，好比明星的行程般多得好像没有其他时间玩耍了。我给自己安排了整天的补课，背书，背单词等等的，忙得不可开交，到了晚上才有时间让自己看看电视消遣消遣。暑假生活对我来说，还真忙。

但这样忙碌的暑假生活未必我就讨厌。总比我们在学校时来得轻松幸福吧。有家人陪伴的福利在学校可没有。当你正忙于你的功课之时，家人的一碗热汤，一句问候：“累了吧，可以休息休息，不要太累了。”就这么简简单单一句话不知道是多么让人感到温馨的啊。暑假生活的最好享受不过跟家人在一起的时候了。暑假生活对我来说，暑假生活还是忙里见温馨的。

你是否想问我暑假生活不会就这么过吧。当然没有了，一整年的学习辛苦，暑假怎么会还这么不消停地过了呢。游泳想必是大家伙最喜爱的一项夏日运动吧。不管是会游泳的还是不会游泳的都爱这项运动。游泳即有强身健体作用也有减肥的作用哦。我也不以为然咯，我最爱游泳了。跟家人一起去大游泳馆游泳是经常的事了，从高高的滑滑梯滑下来的惊心动魄的感觉我最过瘾了。暑假生活对我来说，还真快乐。

我的暑假生活既忙又温馨还快乐。我爱暑假生活。

Last a few days is very boring, you learn it in the database to read the book, although already behind the teacher and several chapters; experimental data structures do not go down, a big reason is because the midterm exam after playing, also play "thinking in trouble, just remember after the exam is devoted to play in every game... It came on Friday again, and it took two days to correct the habit of sleeping, but it came into the valley of learning. And now its still hovering near the valley. The video of a mess is not happy or unhappy. Its just like saying to the time: you are playing.

Read an article today, although the three students to write, but I have to say his discipline, his self, his courage to take this is my two immature do, and look back at our university life, I now in addition to the first project to the Nothing is right. And he had his own team, and he had 5 projects that he had done, all of which I wanted. I knew he gave him his insistence, but I couldnt even think about it, not to do it. In the article he mentioned how to use the resources of the University: libraries, networks, teachers, classmates. In addition to a little communication with the teacher, the library is poor, the network is misused, the relationship of the students. (I dont find the same teammate).

I want to restore my ambition, my ambition to pursue the seemingly impossible but I would seize the miracle. From today, from now on, to do everything with your passion, get rid of the temptation of every Saturday, or go out, shopping, blow. Stay in the lab or the library for a day on Sunday.

There are lots of things to learn, and many things to do. University life is the best time of life. Dont bury this time in the game, bury in the quilt, and bury in the beautiful dream. Believe that All sufferings have their reward. God helps those who help themselves. I believe that my life is different.

In the growth, there are always some lingering worries. As the ancients said: "people have sensitized, yuan, there are rain or shine." Why do peoples lifetime will not be smooth? I am no exception! Growth has given me endless happiness, but also bring many troubles to me from time to time: for growth, I with the feelings of a kind of desire, but somewhat bored.

The first: much homework. Though the teacher is decorated very little, but mother is three times of assignment, let me test the mountain every day. Go home at night, the first thing is to do my homework, then chew my everybody.

The second: less time. Can also play at school, at home, in addition to eat, when they dont have time to play the other time was spent on learning.

Third: friends less. Grow up, boys play with boys, girls like girls to play, if the boy and the girl talk, everyone else will be so good friends less, "enemy" had more.

Fourth: the demand is high. When I was a child, live carefree, free. Now, as the fifth grade students I have grown up, not as a child, do things to be careful, focused, after all, I have grown up. The carefree days are far...

Growth, although gave me a lot of trouble, but also bring me much happiness. At the same time, also because of the growing pains, I know a lot of, also aware of the many, many... Happiness and troubles can be compared them into a piece of a piece of paving stone, they are connect the leak, the road to success!

在成长中，总有些挥之不去的烦恼。就如古人说的：“人有悲欢离合，月有阴晴圆缺。”人的一辈子为什么不会一帆风顺呢?我也不例外啊!成长给了我无穷的快乐，但也不时给我带来不少的烦恼：对于成长，我带着一种渴望的心情，但又有些厌烦。

第一：作业多了。虽然老师布置得很少，但妈妈却布置了3倍的作业，让我每天都啃书山。晚上回家，第一件事是做作业，接着就是啃我的书山了。

第二：时间少了。在学校里还可以玩，到了家，除了吃饭时就没时间玩了，其他时间都花在学习上。

第三：朋友少了。长大了，男生跟男生玩，女生就跟女生玩，要是男生跟女生玩就会被人议论，所以好朋友少了，“仇人”却多了。

第四：要求高了。当我还是小孩时，生活得无忧无虑，自由自在的。可现在，身为小学五年级学生的我已经长大了，不在是小孩了，做起事来要小心翼翼，思前想后，毕竟我已经长大了。无忧无虑的日子已经远了……

成长，虽然给了我不少烦恼，但也为我带来了不少快乐。同时，也因为这些成长的烦恼，令我懂得了许多，也意识到了许多许多……快乐与烦恼就可以把它们比喻成一块一块的铺路石，它们毫无漏缝的连接着，通向成功的路!

Nowadays ,many people are talking about low carbon living. I think each and every one of us is responsible for the greenhouse gases we emit in our daily actions and choices. Therefore, combating climate change is going to take the combined efforts of everyone on the planet.

2010 World Expo was held in Shanghai. Shanghai Expo theme is "Better City, Better Life." As a student, we should do something about environmental protection. For example, plant trees, save water and less your car.

From Monday until Friday most people are busy working or studying, but in

the evenings and on weekends they are free to relax and enjoy themselves. Some

watch television or go to the movies; others participate in sports. It depends

on individual interests. There are many different ways to spend our spare

time.

Almost everyone has some kind of hobby. It may be anything from collecting

stamps to making model airplanes. Some hobbies are worth a lot of money; others

are valuable only to their owners.

I know a man who has a coin collection worth several thousand yuan. A short

time ago he bought a rare ten-yuan piece worth 250 yuan. He was very happy about

the purchase and thought the price was reasonable. On the other hand, my son

collects match boxes. He has almost 600 of them but I doubt if they are worth

any money. However, to my son they are extremely valuable. Nothing makes him

happier than to find a new match-box for his collection.

Thats what a hobby means, I guess. It is something we like to do in our

spare time simply for the fun of it. The value in money is not important, but

the pleasure it gives us is.

As a Senior Grade Three students, I am very busy in preparing for the college entrance examination.

I have seven classes a day, and two self-study classes at night. And only a day left for the weekend. So, most of the time I have to spend on the study, after all the college entrance examination is very important for almost all of us. Aside of study, I would play football with my friends after school and the weekend. I like playing football very much. When I run on the football field, I can put the examination thing off my mind for a while, only sweat and laugh left. It is a good exercise for health and a good way to relax from the busy study too.

This is my high school life, busy and fulfilling.

The first day for me to go to high school, I felt so excited, because I came into the new stage of my life. The school asked the students to live in the dormitory, so I had to move out and left my parents. This was such a big challenge for me, because I never left home before. I needed to learn to be independent, what’s more, I also learned to get along with others. High school was like a little society for me and I handed the problems well. The other challenge was from study. I had to learn so many subjects and fought for my future college.

and not ask my parents drive me there. If I am the last one to leave classroom

or home, I will make sure all the lights are off. I always will save the water

after washing clothes. And then use it to wash the toilet. Our earth is in our

前段时间电视上一直在放着家风这个话题，说每个人的家里都要有家风和家规。我是根据新闻上的专题，来写这篇作文的。现在大家都很注重家里的风气，风气的范围有大有小，有国风、也有班风，今天就来讲一下这个家风吧。

所谓的家风就是自己家里的风气，家里的风气好不好就会影响到子孙后代，一个家庭或家族的家风要正，首先是要注重以德立家、以德治家。家风也分为好几种，在家里做的事、在家里做家务等等，在家里做的事情的是好家风。家风也叫门风，是一个家庭或家族的传统风尚。

家规很严格的，所以家里的规则必须要严格遵守一个家庭所规定的行为规范，一般是由一个家族所遗传下来的教育规范后代子孙的准则。家规也叫家法，国有国法，家有家规，就是指一个国家有一个国家的法律，一个家庭有一个家庭的规矩，这个规矩就相当于国家的法律。指家庭的规矩，做任何事都要懂得讲规矩。

最后，我觉得好的家风和家规每个人都要严格的遵守，我们小学生也要自己遵守好的行为规范，讲规矩，要正义。

暑假里，我随旅游团来到了“红瓦、绿树、碧海、蓝天”美丽的青岛。

青岛的美丽，美在其海。我光着脚丫走在细细的沙滩上，欣赏着那无边无际、海天一色的大海，海水平静时，像一面透明、透亮的玻璃镜;海水奔腾时，犹如一排排整齐的哨兵庄严地在主席台前走过;海水咆哮时，俨然是一只怒吼的大猛狮，卷起千层浪，往海滩扑来。

海鸥忽高忽低地飞在海面上，为海滩增加了亮丽的风采。海滩吸引了众多的游客，有的在阳光下玩沙滩浴，有的在碧蓝的海水里游泳，打水仗，还有的在海边挖沙堡，冲洗脚，更有趣的是，有人在海里和小狗一起快乐地游泳，这使我大开眼界，知道了什么叫做狗刨……看着别人玩得那么开心，我也忍不住地在海滩上采了许多五光十色的贝壳，有时海水趁我不注意跳到了我的脸上，逗得我哈哈大笑，我还玩了挖沙堡。我走在海水里，海水不断的拍打着我的小脚丫，一个浪紧接着一个浪。在海滩上留下一串串脚印，一个浪花打了过来，那一串串脚印居然消失得无影无踪……

青岛的美丽不仅在其海，而且在其山。这里有道教发祥地之一崂山，它被海水环绕着，群山起伏，青山绿水，远看山峰像被一层薄纱披盖着，犹如仙境。我们主要参观了太清宫，里面有三大殿：三清殿、三宫殿和三皇殿。这里长着许多奇异的树木：如三合一树，三棵不同树种合并成一棵高大的树;黄莲树、银杏树、茶花树，还有带着传奇色彩的痒痒树，一摸树干，树叶就动;龙头树，听说一摸，就可以带来好运，我摸了好几下……还有很多叫不出名的树。山上有很多奇形怪状的石头，有的远看像一位和尚，有的像青蛙仰望天空，还有的特别有意思，正看像乌龟，反看像老鼠……

青岛的美丽，美在其环境，这里的环境幽雅、街道干净，空气十分清鲜，空气里几乎没有杂质，花草树木极多。

青岛的美丽，美在其经济腾飞。这里有著名的海尔集团、双星集团和青岛啤酒。

“红瓦、绿树、碧海、蓝天”美丽的青岛，我爱你!

端午节，我就想起一首儿歌“五月五，是端阳。插艾叶，带香囊。吃粽子，撒白糖。龙舟下水喜洋洋。”一曲简单的儿歌就道出我国两千多年的传统节日——端午节。一到端午这一天全国各地的人们都要吃粽子，赛龙舟。

在我的家乡也一样，每到这一天，家家户户都忙得不亦乐乎，大家都在为过节准备。端午节的前两天，就看到奶奶，去市场买粽叶，糯米，回到家以后，奶奶先把粽叶放到一个盆子里，用水浸泡，使它变柔软，然后把糯米洗净，用水浸泡，经过一段时间的浸泡后，奶奶开始包粽子了。

首先先拿起一片粽叶，把它卷成一个椎体，然后再把糯米填到这个椎体李，填满以后，用其余的粽叶把它紧紧的裹住，接着用麻线把它困起来，奶奶就像这样一个一个的包着，不一会，一串粽子就包好了。终于到了端午这一天，妈妈一早就出去买菜了，奶奶从冰箱里取出之前包好的粽子，放到锅里开始煮，妈妈不久也回来了，这时妈妈拿出在市场买的艾叶，把它挂在门上面，然后准备菜肴。

经过了一天的准备，我们的晚餐开始了，我们一家人围坐在饭桌前，为先人屈原祈祷后开始用餐，这是电视里也在播放赛龙舟的画面，我不由得想起屈原，希望他能听到我们的祈祷，不会刚到寂寞。

端午节是我们中国人两千多年的传统节日，他的延续不仅是龙的节日，还是一种精神的延续。

初中英语作文:初二英语作文 Our School Life

I don＇t think our school life is colorful. Because we＇ve got so many classes every day. I wonder whether we can change our school life someday. You see, from Monday to Friday, I have to stay at school. the only relaxation is to listen to the radio or play ball games. At weekends, we need to go to school to have classes, too. I know it＇s very important for us to study well now. As the saying goes, "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. "I want to step into the nature. I hope we will have more activities such as visiting museums, taking part in different kinds of contests, attending some lectures and so on. Is it only a dream?

How to adapt youself to college life

There are obvious differences between high school life and college life. First,college students will live in the dormitory with classmates who come from various places, and who may have different living habits. Second,college teachers ,instead of explaning in detail how to solve every problem, might only tell different approaches to the problem, and leave students to study and solve problems independently. Finally, in college,there is more free time for students to spend on.

However how should the college freshman adapt himself to these differeces. First of all, he should learn to be tolerant and consider more for others,which is necessary for group living. Moreover he should take active part in collective activities and make more communication with classmates and teachers. It will help he be smoothly integrated with your new environment. Besides,as to study,he should develop a good habit of self-teaching and learn to arrange study independently. Of course,it may take a freshman some while to become accustomed to the study and life in college. However, we all have to accept constant challenges of new things in our life. To conclude,college students should try to adapt himself to college life as soon as possible, so as to take full advantages of their precious college time.
