I remember it like yesterday.We were all waiting patiently for my father to come home from the race track.He promised me and my sister that if he won,he would take us all to Rye Playland.

The minutes felt like hours.It was the longest hour of my life.Then finally we heard the car door shut.Me and my sister ran to the front door anxiously waiting for the news.He opened the door and walked in.We tried to read the expression on his face but of course he was looking down while taking his sneakers off.

The suspense was killing us.Then he looked up.No words were spoken between us and our father.He just gave us a blank stare.I didnt know what to think.I was scared to ask because I was so worried of the response.

The Low-Carbon Economic

Nowadays,with more and more serious problem such as the global increasing temperture,the melting ice and the rising sea-levering,people are recognizing the important of developing the low-carbon economic now.

There are many ways we can do to reach the loe-carbon economic.Fristly,discovering others fuels which is more clean and more green to instead of the using of carbon.Secondly, we should have the save-energy conscious and do something which we can make,for instance,using the bus ranther than car when you go out,re-use the thing that can be recycle used,reducing the use of plastic bags.Last but not least,we should plant more trees or other greenplants,in which way we can not only improve the environment,but also can make our home more beauty.

In my opnion, the most important thing to reach the low-carbon economic is everyone must try their best do what they can do for it.Once everyone have the sence of low-carbon economic and have the action by themselves ,it will be earlier to reach it.

Population expansion is one of the most serious problems in the world. With better hygienic conditions and better medical care, fewer babies die today. But the birth rate remains unchanged. Moreover, the death rate has been lowered considerably by various kinds of progress. People generally live longer than they used to. All these contribute to a series of problem: shortage of national resources and food supply crowded cities and high rate of unemployment.

To solve all these problems, we must take measures to control birth rate. The first important step is to educate people-to help them understand the advantages of small families. Another important measure is to raise peoples living standards. When people full understand the consequences of population expansion, and when their standard of living is raised, the birth rate will decline without compulsion.

Though it is a difficult task, we should try in a thousand and one ways to carry out birth control If we fail to do so, the world will be too crowded to live in, and the natural resources will be used up. Then we will no longer survive on earth.

算起来，自己也上了10几年的学了，和老师打的交道也不算少的。自打到了初三，我和老师的关系就越来越密切了，隔三差五的，我就要去和老师交流下感情，那个点击率啊，真是高啊。每天，必有一次谈心。我不知道为什么，我只知道，老师特别喜欢和我聊天。

第一次月考完了之后，我不小心，在全年级进步了70多名。我并没付出什么努力，该怎么玩还是怎么玩，可能就是老前辈们说的，雨花石偶尔反一下光。所以，我上课要打瞌睡的这个习惯还是没改。有一天，我和同桌闹了矛盾，她就不帮我看着老师了，任由我睡，她也不管了，正好，上课的时候是班主任的课。结果可想而知，我被老师抓住了。老师说：“刘柏森，下课来下办公室。”我站起来点点头，说：“我可以坐下了么？”“你给我站着。”“拜托，老师，昨晚上看历史书来着，没睡好，站着，我睡不着。”全班一阵安静。老师笑了(历史老师)：“什么？昨晚上看历史？嗯，不错，你坐下吧……”忽然反应过来，“你什么意思啊？看历史你就不站了啊？站着，没什么好说的！”下课后，我到了办公室里蹲下。老师回过头，看着成绩表说：“你是不是考得好嘛！看下你成绩嘛！比上次期末……”她拿着尺子从成绩表上划下来，划到我的名字上，愣了一下，清了清嗓子说：“我们先不说这个成绩的问题，我们先说一下你上课睡觉的问题……”我无语。

某天，英语老师上课的时候，写了个句子出来全班狂笑，我也跟着笑。老师问：“这个句子错在哪里？刘柏森，你来说下。”我笑不出来了。别说，我还真没看出来哪是错的，我站起来，盯着那个句子半天说：“不知道。”老师提醒道：“几个动词了都？”我数了数：“好象多了点，3个。”老师说：“这什么句子都不是，是按照主语从句搞出来的，主语从句我都多少年没用过了，我都是二昏二昏的，你们还敢用？”我又笑起来。老师白了我一眼：“还笑，就是你写的！”我一愣，我写的？老师又接着说：“这就是你写的，还高手呢，写的都是什么啊？”我看了看我的作文本，我写的是“。”于是我说：“那个不是我写的。”“反正也是半斤八两。”我再看了看：“没错，格式是正确的。”从此，就没人再把我当成英语高手了。

摸底考试完了之后，我下降了很多，原因我就不说了，班主任大人一看成绩，顿时火冒三丈，把我叫到办公室说：“怎么回事你？是不是想其他去了？手伸出来，我要好好教训你。”说罢，拿起那把教棍，对着我的手一通乱打，然后问：“记住好好学习没有？”“记住了。”“好了，你走吧。”我抬起头，刚要走出去，老师又把我叫住：“回来！”我问：“还有什么事？”老师说：“你还有什么没说的？”我想了想，没想出来，旁边一个蹲在地上的哥们说：“一看就是不怎么进办公室的，你忘了说‘谢谢老师’了。”我一听，赶紧说：“谢谢老师。”老师点点头：“嗯，去吧。”我的那个汗啊……

我现在正在期待究竟在初三下期还会有什么样的事情发生……

Lucy once was my classmate, but now she has moved to another city. However, we communicate with each other all the time, sharing our lives with each other. When she firstly moved to the new city and went to the new school, she did not adapt very well. But she is outgoing and talkative, it did not take very long time for her to get on well with others. She is so kind that people are likely to make friends with her. Therefore, I do not worry about her in the new environment. I hope she will have a new start in the new city and school and I am sure she certainly will.

Li Hua spent too much time playing computer games and he fell behind

others. As a good friend of his, I must do something to help him.

Firstly, I think its 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.

初中英语作文:我的朋友-My friend

With the rapid development of the internet, shopping on the Internet has

become a fashion in our daily life. According to the latest data, over two

hundred million people used to buy commodities on the Internet. Some of the

students also join the group.

There are many advantages about shopping on the Internet. Just by a click

of the mouse, you can buy whatever you like without going outdoors. You don’t

need to worry about being trapped in the crowed people and cars, or wasting too

much time on walking. When shopping on line, you can choose from more varieties

of goods, whose price are generally lower.

Every coin has two sides. Its disadvantages are obvious, too. On one hand,

it’s very easy for you to buy goods different from the pictures you see on the

internet，which is quite disappointed. On the other hand, shopping on the

Internet may cause people to buy commodities that are not badly needed. It’s a

waste of money.

After all, I really enjoy shopping on the Internet.

Grow really very tired very hard.

On the way to grow up is often lonely, learn to cheer yourself when nobody cheers. Dont be afraid, dont worry, bravely and frankly face all the things that grow up, give yourself encouragement, give yourself faith, give yourself happiness.

难忘的初中生活英语作文一

Community service is very common in many countries. It is a voluntary activity to improve the environment of our community and then raise our living standard. Community service has become very important. It can unite the people and increase the responsibility of citizens.

I have done community service once when I was in junior high school. My teacher told us that we were going to clean the streets around the community. It was the first time I learned that we, as members of the community, should help clean and maintain its environment. It is our responsibility to conserve our living conditions. We walked along the streets and picked up all garbage. After we finished the service, I was tired but content, because I felt that I did a really good thing to the community.

The promotion of community service is very important. If we start to promote such work to kids when they are little, it can be more popular. Although community service has become widespread, there are still just a few people who dedicate themselves to it. Citizens should be more responsible, and know that it’s not just some other people’s job to keep the community safe and clean.

Even though it will be tiring and may take a lot of time, you will be delighted after you do a favor for you community. If we all give a hand, the community will become a wonderful place for people to live.

Dear

Editor,

Recently

graffiti has become more noticeable in my college. I feel quite annoyed at them,

especially when some of my classmates praise them as a kind of so-called art.

Confronted with this impolite phenomenon, I cant help asking myself: what is

wrong with todays teenagers?

In

my opinion, graffiti is a form of vandalism. They are a mess and are ugly to

look at. Meanwhile, walls are public places, and they should not be used to

express personal views and feelings.

I

really think vandalism should be stopped, and those who refuse to stop this bad

practice should be punished. We should clear away these ugly expressions and

drawings so that our college may return to its true self--a clean, quiet place

for study, teaching and research.

Yours,

Li

Ming

Jay Zhou is a famous pop singer.  He is famous for Fine day,Class Two Grade Three, Quiet, Shanghai 1943 and so on.His music is mainly R & B and Hip-pop. His songs are full of vigor. You can＇t help moving your body when you hear them.As his music fan, I know he likes antiques very much. Do you know his full name? Yes, it＇s Zhoujie Lun.

Last winter holiday, I went to Harbin with my mother. It‘s very cold in winter. There is snow and ice everywhere and you are always in a white world. You must wear warm clothes. The most exciting thing is playing with snow. Skating is also very interesting there. I will always remember Harbin, for the snow, the ice and all the beautiful things. I love Harbin.

I study in XX middle school. My school is very big and beautiful.

I often get up atX.00 a.m. Ten minute later I have my breakfast. Our classes begin at X.00 a.m. we have eight lessons every day. I often have Chinese,English and Maths lessons in the morning. I go home for lunch at about X.00 p.m. From X.XX to X.XX p.m, we have other lessons like Geography, History, Biology, Political and PE.

I don’t like play basketball,football and pingpang. But I like run.

I very like English and Computer lessons. English is very important. It is very hard to learn. Computer lesson is very interesting.

My school life is very colorful.

English is widely used throughout the world.

So many people speak it as a second language. Online, youll find lots of

information in English. If you dont understand English, how can you know more

about the world, how can you get more knowledge. At international conferences,

English is also used as the official language. Without good English, you cannot

express your ideas well at such conferences, neither can you introduce China to

the outside world.

Third, I have been standing at a fork mouth of life. Looking back, looking at the footprints of your own growth, it does mean something. Love is Xin Qijis "ugly girl", his first words as we age children from small to large portrait.

"The young do not sorrow taste". Childhood, from just remember to middle school, always feel carefree. Hungry, looking forward to dinner; thirsty, looking forward to drinking water; scared, looking forward to Mom coming; frightened, looking forward to Dads side. These, call it, or just show it with tears and cry, will be able to get satisfactory results. Childhood is so simple, and it is so real. A little bigger, become a teenager, looking forward to be praised by the teacher, looking forward to the applause of the students, looking forward to full marks. When I was praised, like psychological flow with honey; whenever there is out, it went to the jubilant mom and dad to show off a beam with joy. At that time, how simple and innocent.

Now, the childhood in my mind has become an eternal memory, the dream of the flower season is also like a distant landscape, childhood wind like, feel, but can not see, can not touch, there are countless ways of life before, I have to walk with heavy steps wandering. Just like the taste of sorrow now". So, what about the future? Is it to open up life or to enjoy life? Yue Feis sake, Gou hardships, let me dance, father chose the former; comfortable air conditioning, cola fun, crispy potato chips, the excitement of the game so I choose the latter. Both steady stand in the balance at both ends, not the severity of the conflict scale blocking my schedule. Secondary education in less than a year will end after nine years of baptism we have strong body, sucking countless knowledge in the motherland to defeat in the mighty wave crashing on a sandy shore,? No, can not, the process of growth is painful, "enjoy life" although intoxicating, but if our youth long drunk, do not laugh for people?

Therefore, in the face of growth, we must bravely overcome the idea of ease in mind, and open up a perfect life course.

2004 marks the 10th anniversary of the groundbreaking International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) in Cairo, Egypt, in 1994.

Ten years ago, on the eve of World Population Day, a new campaign was launched to raise awareness of how international family planning helps save women and childrens lives, safeguard the environment, and slow population growth. 179 governments committed to it when they signed the Program of Action of ICPD, which prescribes the steps that will not only save millions of womens lives but empower（授权, 使能够）societies to achieve a better future.

Today, there are more than 6 billion people on the planet, with half of the worlds population under the age of 25-at or just reaching their childbearing（分娩）years.

Nearly 600,000 women still die each year from pregnancy-related causes. And an estimated 90 percent of infants whose mothers die at childbirth will not survive to their first birthday.

Wild species are becoming extinct 50 to 100 times faster than they naturally would, because of the impact of rapid population growth and increased population density in many countries.

Though population growth is slowing worldwide, more than 90 percent of current growth occurs in the developing world where needs are great and resources are scarce. And these nations have a huge unmet need for family planning services-over 150 million married women of reproductive age in the developing world indicate that they would prefer to postpone childbearing but are not using any method of contraception.

"Girl born today in the developing world faces better prospects than a girl who was born 10 years ago. School enrolment rates are increasing, mortality is declining and life expectancy（平均寿命） is rising, more and more women and couples are able to choose the number and spacing of their children and many countries are taking additional steps to confront HIV/AIDS. But progress is uneven, and in some cases slipping backwards. We need the strength and determination of a marathon（马拉松赛跑）runner to meet our goals during the next decade."
