篇4:介绍中国长城英语
全文共 1899 字
+ 加入清单The Great Wall of China
The Great Wall of China is called the "Ten thousand Ii Great Wall" in Chinese. In fact, it s more than 6 000 kilometres long. It winds its way from west to east, across deserts, over mountains, through valleys till at last it reaches the sea. It is one of the wonders of the world.
The Great Wall has a history of over twenty centuries. The first part of it was built during the Spring and Autumn Period. During the Warring States Period, more walls were put up to defend the borders of the different kingdoms. It was during the Qin Dynasty that the kingdom of Qin united the dif ferent parts into one empire. To keep the enemy out of his empire, Emperor Qin Shi Huang had all the walls joined up. Thus, the Great Wall came into being.
The Great Wall is wide enough at the top for five horses or ten men to walk side by side. Along the wall are watchtowers, where soldiers used to keep watch. Fires were lit on the the towers as a warning when the enemy came.
It was very difficult to build such a wall in the ancient days without any modern machines. All the work was done by hand. Thousands of men died and were buried under the wall they built. The Great Wall was made not only of stone and earth, but of the flesh and blood of millions of men.
Today the Great Wall has become a place of interest not only to the Chinese but to people from all over the world. Many of them have come to know the famous Chinese saying: "He who does not reach the Great Wall is not a true man."
中国的万里长城被称为“万里长城”。事实上,它有6000多公里长。它蜿蜒地从西向东,穿过沙漠,越过高山,穿过山谷,直到最后到达大海。它是世界奇观之一。
长城有二十多个世纪的历史。它的第一部分是在春秋时期建造的。战国时期,有更多的城墙被用来保卫不同王国的边界。正是在秦朝,秦国把帝夫的发福部分统一为一个帝国。为了把敌人赶出他的帝国,秦始皇把所有的城墙连在一起。于是,长城诞生了。
长城的宽度足以让五匹马或十个人并排走。沿着墙的是瞭望塔,士兵们常常在那里守望。当敌人到来时,在塔上点燃了火作为警告。
在古代没有任何现代机器的情况下,很难建造这样一堵墙。所有的工作都是手工完成的。成千上万的人死了,被埋在他们建造的城墙下。长城不仅是由石头和泥土建成的,而且是几百万人的血肉所组成的。
今天,长城不仅对中国人,而且对来自世界各地的人都有兴趣。他们中的许多人都知道中国著名的谚语:“没有到达长城的人不是真正的人。”

篇10:大连英语作文带翻译
全文共 2413 字
+ 加入清单My son Joey was born with club feet. The doctors assured us that with treatment he would be able to walk normally — but would never run very well. The first three years of his life were spent in surgery, casts and braces. By the time he was eight, you wouldnt know he had a problem when you saw him walk .
The children in our neighborhood ran around as most children do during play, and Joey would jump right in and run and play, too. We never told him that he probably wouldnt be able to run as well as the other children. So he didnt know.
In seventh grade he decided to go out for the cross—country team. Every day he trained with the team. He worked harder and ran more than any of the others — perhaps he sensed that the abilities that seemed to come naturally to so many others did not come naturally to him. Although the entire team runs, only the top seven runners have the potential to score points for the school. We didnt tell him he probably would never make the team, so he didnt know.
He continued to run four to five miles a day, every day — even the day he had a 103—degree fever. I was worried, so I went to look for him after school. I found him running all alone. I asked him how he felt. "Okay," he said. He had two more miles to go. The sweat ran down his face and his eyes were glassy from his fever. Yet he looked straight ahead and kept running. We never told him he couldnt run four miles with a 103—degree fever. So he didnt know.
Two weeks later, the names of the team runners were called. Joey was number six on the list. Joey had made the team. He was in seventh grade — the other six team members were all eighth—graders. We never told him he shouldnt expect to make the team. We never told him he couldnt do it. We never told him he couldnt do it...so he didnt know. He just did it.

我的儿子琼尼降生时,他的双脚向上弯弯着,医生向我们保证说经过治疗,小琼尼可以像常人一样走路,但像常人一样跑步的可能性则微乎其微。琼尼3岁之前一直在接受治疗,和支架、石膏模子打交道。七八岁的时候,他走路的样子已让人看不出他的腿有过毛病。
邻居的小孩子们做游戏的时候总是跑过来跑过去。毫无疑问小琼尼看到他们玩就会马上加进去跑啊闹的。我们从不告诉他不能像别的孩子那样跑,我们从不说他和别的孩子不一样。因为我们不对他说,所以他不知道。
七年级的时候,琼尼决定参加跑步横穿全美的比赛。每天他和大伙一块训练。也许是意识到自己先天不如别人,他训练得比任何人都刻苦。训练队的前7名选手可以参加最后比赛,为学校拿分。我们没有告诉琼尼;也许会落空,所以他不知道。
他坚持每天跑4~5英里。我永远不会忘记有一次,他发着高烧,但仍坚持训练。我为他担心,于是去学校看他,发现他正在一个人沿着长长的林荫道跑步呢。我问他感觉怎么样,"很好。"他说。还剩下最后两英里。他满脸是汗,眼睛因为发烧失去了光彩。然而他目不斜视,坚持着跑下来。我们从没有告诉他不能发着高烧去跑4英里的路,我们从没有这样对他说,所以他不知道。
两个星期后,在决赛前的3天,长跑队的名次被确定下来。琼尼是第六名,他成功了。他才是个七年级生,而其余的人都是八年级生。我们从没有告诉他不要去期望入选,我们从没有对他说他不会成功。是的,从没说起过……所以他不知道,但他却做到了!

Everyone has their own most admired, maybe he is a musician, perhaps a military family may be rare gifts and bold strategy, a person close to you...... The person I admire most is a strategist in the Eastern Han Dynasty - Zhu Geliang.

Just 250 thousand people led by Jima Ya against the Malay Hinata, Wei Yan and Sima Yi staggered road.

人人都有自己最钦佩的人,他也许是一位音乐家,也许是一位雄才大略的军事家,也许是你身边的一个人……而我最钦佩的人是东汉时期一个军事家——诸葛亮。
诸葛亮机智聪明,每当危险来临时,总会沉着的应对。
记得有一次,刘备在对抗魏国大军时,派诸葛亮、魏延带领30万大军驻守阳平。一天,魏延率领25万大军去攻打曹操,只留万人在阳平。正好司马懿也率领25万人马来攻打阳平,魏延与司马懿错开道路。诸葛亮知道司马懿要来了,就让惊慌的士兵回到城楼上,打开城门,只让几个老头在街上打扫。司马懿知道诸葛亮十分沉着冷静,便怀疑有伏兵,就带兵走了。
从这件事就可以看出诸葛亮的神机妙算,我以后一定要好好地学习他啊!

篇16:介绍打游戏英语作文
全文共 1316 字
+ 加入清单Nowadays playing computer games is a very common hobbies, especially among young people and teenagers. However there are many arguements on whether computer games are advantageous to people or not.
Although many people doubt the advantages of computer games, if used wisely computer games can actually be used in educational purposes, for example typing games to allow students to learn typing English or Chinese. Also another advantage of computer game is that the games may be played together among friends or family members, which may improve the relationship between family members and allow parents to know more about their children on their hobbies and interests.
However computer games if misused can also have very bad effects on human beings. Firstly spending long time in front of the computer screen will bring to various health problems, such as eye sore, back pain and headache. Also if people spend too much time on computer games rather than the work they should do, for example school work for students and projects and presentations for employees, it may have bad effects on their real life and social life status.
It is true for everything that it is beneficial if used wisely, therefore although computer games are widely said to be bad for people, it can still be used as a good tool if used wisely.

篇20:介绍中秋节的英语
全文共 1459 字
+ 加入清单The Mid-Autumn or Moon Festival is one rich in poetic(诗意的) significance. Ancient legends(古代的传说) that became interwoven with this festival‘s celebration further contribute to the warm regard in which it has always been held by the Chinese people. According to the lunar calendar(农历), the seventh, eighth, and ninth months constitute the autumn season. Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, precisely in the middle of this season, when the heat of the summer has given way to cool autumn weather, marked by blue skies and gentle breezes. On this day the moon is at its greatest distance from the earth; at no other time is it so luminous. Then, as the Chinese say, “The moon is perfectly round.” In the villages the heavy work involved in the summer harvest has already been completed but the autumn harvest has not yet arrived.
The actual origins of the Mid-Autumn Festival are still very unclear. The earliest records are from the time of the great Han dynasty emperor Wu Di, who initiated celebrations lasting three days, including banquets and “Viewing the Moon” evenings on the Toad Terrace. We know that people during the Jin dynasty (265-420 A.D.) continued the custom of Mid-Autumn Festival celebrations, and similar accounts have come down to us from the time of the Tang dynasty. During the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) houses and gardens were decorated with numerous lanterns and the sound of gongs and drums filled the air.
