A Sad Story

Last Monday when I stepped into my classroom,my monitor told us that our class teacher, Mr Sun, had passed away in a traffic accident. It seemed so unbelievable because he used to give us lessons on Monday morning. I couldnt accept the fact until the headmaster came to tell us the truth.

Mr Sun was a middle-aged teacher. He was full of sense of humour. We all liked him very much because of his excellent teaching. His lessons were usually very lively and interesting.We all liked to attend his class. He was an experienced teacher.

Mr Sun will always live in our hearts!

My teacher gave me an assignment "experience life" last week. I had been thinking how to finish it because I had never done any thing by myself before.

Mother was out today. It was a good chance to complete the assignment. Seeing the barrel was empty, I decided to fetch water from the well.

I took the empty barrel and went towards the well outside the yard. It snowed yesterday, so the alley was very slippery. A layer of thickice was frozen on the platform of the well. I was frightened by the sight, but I gathered my courage to walk towards it.

The alley was so slippery that I walked with difficultly. Suddenly, I slipped and fell down, water in the barrel totally poured down on the ground. I stepped on the platform carefully. After standing steadily and squatting down slowly, I hooked the barrel at the end of the rope and put the rope down slowly. I made an effort to drag the barrel up after it was filled with water. I was very careful because it was easy to slip and fall. Then, I carried the barrel of water and returned to my house. My figners were frozen stiff. I realized my effort was in vain. I hated myself.

I failed to finish the assignment but I did experience life through a trifle which seemed easy but difficult to do well. Such was my first experience of life.

我的暑假

今年的暑假，我过的特别开心。

暑假，我在家闲得无聊，直到有一天，我的舞蹈老师告诉我，我们这个班舞蹈跳的还是井井有条，就是节奏感差些，要是节奏感好，过几个月就可以去比赛了。

我一听，马上就要比赛了，便马上到处找起来。啊!哪里有碟子让了锻炼好节奏感啊?

"哎"我叹了口气.突然想起电脑.咦?电脑不是可以播放MP3吗?呵呵!有的我乐了。我立即把电脑开起来，听曲子。我听了整整三个礼拜，终于听出了里面的韵味。原来是"咚哒哒咚哒哒""咚哒哒咚哒哒"每第一个"咚"就是"一"第一个"哒哒"就是"二"第二个"咚"就是"三"第二个"哒哒"就是"四"。节奏就是"一二三四，一二三四"重复不停的念，不过要用英文。

我相信，只要我们努力比拼，就一定会有好成绩的。

开心的暑假，快乐的暑假，没有忧虑的暑假。

In recent years, studying abroad has been popular in our country. More and more middle school students would like to go abroad through mediators. Is it good or bad to study abroad? In my opinion, on one hand, it has some advantages. Studying abroad can provide better studying conditions. People can make rapid progress in their foreign language study and it can also help widen their field of vision. Meanwhile, young students can learn advanced science and technology from foreign countries and spread cultures of different nations.

On the other hand, it has disadvantages. For example, because of the lack of living experience and poor capability to take care of themselves, they may feel lonely and homesick. In addition, high living expenses and tuition fees will become a heavy burden upon their parents.

So I think whether studying abroad or not should be decided according to oneself and ones family. It is not right to follow others.

秋天，是位魔术师，把田野染成了一片金黄；秋天，是位温柔的女子，迎面而来的秋风是如此的轻，如此的柔。下面是小编分享的关于秋天的英语作文带翻译，欢迎大家阅读！

当草开始变黄，大雁开始成群地向温暖的地方飞去时，这一切好像都在告诉我们——秋天已经来了。

秋天的天空很蓝，白云在空中悠闲的飘着。柳树和白杨的叶子都黄了，枫树叶也红了。秋天是多彩的季节。

秋天也是丰收的季节。田野时，谷物成熟了，像块金色的地毯。农民正在忙着收割。

不远的果园里，水果都熟了。红的苹果，紫的绿的葡萄，黄的梨。到处散发着芳香的气味。它们好象在招唤人们来享用美果。

充满活力的夏天是美丽的，但我认为丰收时节的秋天更迷人。

When green grass begins to turn yellow, the swallows begin to fly to the warmer places in groups, they seem to tell us autumn has come.

The sky in autumn is quite blue, and the white clouds are floating leisurely. The willow and poplar leaves turn yellow, but the maple leaves turn red. Autumn is a season of colors.

Autumn is also a harvest time. In the fields, all the crops are ripe. They are like golden blankets. The farmers are busy getting in the crops.

In the orchard not far away, all the fruits are ripe, too. They are in every color, red apples, purple and

green grapes, yellow pears, and so on. They are giving out fragrance. They seem to attract people to taste them.

Summer, full of vigor, is beautiful, but I think autumn is more beautiful because it is a harvest season.

Days are consumed by time, and in the vortex of time, there is a memory of those forgotten memories. In preparatory department on the first floor was once very spread that yet we strongly lang lang to home, national under the teachers water, we from young children grew up, but in the teachers eyes, we are still children.

Year after year, time is in the "destiny compass" flow, new environment is meeting us constantly. At that moment in the hand of the book, time seemed to pass away, and the memory of the memory was scattered, laughing and sobbing. Its always accompanied by this sour stock.

Primary school life gradually to drain away from the fingers, it is like a book of intangible, the image of the characterization of our primary school life, until the sixth grade, the literal shu inside seem to be thin, it is very thick thick, but always cant avoid the ravages of time, we always seem to be particularly vulnerable, in which seems to be touched will become to a pulp, waiting for us only to leave, the innocence of childhood was a little bit of time to cut pieces, pieces, only disappear.

The weather-beaten campus has seen through us all, past footprints, bruises, frustrations...

One, two, three... One by one I counted, those precious articles, knowledge treasure like amber deposits in underground in one thousand, with not only books in the bookcase, and instructing teachers work wholeheartedly.

The campus is our home, the new beginning, the new beginning is here and the end...

日子不断被时间吞噬，在时间的漩涡中，总蕴藏着被那些遗忘的回忆。在小学部一楼曾经传来我们那一声声铿锵有力的朗朗读书声，在老师心血的浇灌下，我们从稚嫩的孩童渐渐长大，但在老师眼里，我们还是孩子。

一年又一年，时间在“命运罗盘”中流，新的环境在不断迎接着我们。在那手持书本的一瞬间，时光似乎回逝从前，脑海里全是零零散散的记忆碎片，欢笑声，哭泣声中。总是伴随这一股股酸涩。

小学的生活渐渐从指缝中流走，它像是一本无形书，形象的刻画着我们的小学生活，直到六年级，里面的字面俞显得稀薄，它很厚很厚，但是总是避免不了时光的摧残，身在其中的我们总是显得特别脆弱，似乎一触动就会变得体无完肤，等待着我们的只剩离别，童年的天真被时间一点点地割碎，碎片呢，只有消失不见。

饱经风霜的校园看透了我们的一切，经过的足迹，伤痕，坎坷…

一本，两本，三本……我一本一本地数着，那些宝贵的文章、知识宝藏犹如千年琥珀蕴藏在地下，书柜里塞满的不仅仅是书，还有老师呕心沥血的教诲。

校园是我们的家，新的开始，新的起点在这儿启程，也在这里终结…

一大早起来，就觉得跟平常不一样，喉咙有点痛痛的，额头和身体都有点烫，下床的时候，头有点晕晕的，不舒服到了极点，我赶紧告诉妈妈，妈妈要我回到床上休息，之后妈妈向老师请病假，再带我去医院检查。

在回家的路上，我深深觉得生病很不好，身体不舒服，要吃苦苦又不能不吃的药，只能乖乖躺在床上，什么也不能做，哪儿也不能去，妈妈也要请假在家里照顾我，还要为我担心，生病真的不好。

记得论语中曾 有孟武伯问孝。子曰：「父母唯其疾之忧。」好好爱护自己的身体，也算是一种孝顺的行为。所以要爱护身体，多运动，多吃新鲜又有营养的食物，不偏食，营养才 会均衡;营养均衡，才会有抵抗力;有抵抗力;才不容易生病。如果有流行性感冒的时候，更要避免出入公共场所，做好自己的卫生，准备好手帕、卫生纸，吃东西 前一定洗手，保持卫生习惯，不吃垃圾食物，不喝垃圾饮料，永远保持愉快的心情，才能拥有健康的身体。事实上，健康就是财富，而要拥有财富，就得先拥有健 康。因为我生病了，所以才能感受到健康的重要。

All over the world people enjoy sports. Sports help to keep people healthy and happy, and to live longer.

Sports change with the seasons. People play different games in winter and summer. Swimming is fun in warm weather, but skating is good in winter.

Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for them. Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers. Some sports or games go back thousands of years, like running or jumping. Chinese wushu, for example, has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. People are inventing new sports or games all the time. Water skiing is one of the newest in the family of sports.

People from different countries may not be able to understand each other, but after a game together they often become good friends. Sports help to train a persons character. One learns to fight hard but fight fair, to win without pride and to lose with grace.
