篇2:我们需要朋友英语作文及译文
全文共 1879 字
+ 加入清单The word, friend, covers a wide range of meanings. It can be a nodding acquaintance, a comrade, a confidant, a partner, a playmate, an intimate colleague, etc.
Everyone needs friendship. No one can sail the ocean of life single-handed. We need help from, and also give help to, others. In modern society, people attach more importance to relations and connections. A man of charisma has many friends. His power lies in his ability to give.
As life is full of strife and conflict, we need friends to support and help us out of difficulties. Our friends give us warnings against danger. Our friends offer us advice with regard to how do deal with various situations. True friends share not only our joys but also our sorrows.
With friendship, life is happy and harmonious. Without friendship, life is sad and unfortunate. I have friends in high positions and friends in the rank and file. Some are rich and in power. Some are relatively poor and without power. Some are like myself, working as a teacher, reading and writing, content with a simple life. We all care for each other, love and help each other. We feel we are happiest when we chat and exchange ideas with one another. With my friends, I know what to treasure, what to tolerate and what to share.
I will never forget my old friends, and Ill keep making new friends. I will not be cold and indifferent to my poor friends, and I will show concern for them, even if it is only a comforting word.
[参考译文]
“朋友”这个词的意义很广。朋友可以是点头之交、同志、知已、伙伴、玩伴、亲密的同事等。
人人都需要友谊,没有人能独自在人生的海洋中航行。我们给人以帮助,也需要别人的帮助。在现代社会,人们更重视关系和联系。一个有非凡魅力的人有许多朋友,他的力量在于他的奉献能力。
生活充满矛盾和斗争,我们需要朋友的支持,以帮助我们摆脱困境。朋友提醒我们警惕险滩。朋友主动给我们以忠告,告诉我们如何应付各种不同的局势。真正的朋友与我们同甘共苦。
有了友谊,生活幸福、和谐;没有友谊,生活变得悲伤、不幸。我有地位高的朋友,也有地位低的朋友;有的有钱有权,有的较穷且无权无势。有的和我一样教书,读读写写,满足于简朴的生活。我们都互相关心,互相爱护,互相帮助。我们觉得朋友们在一起闲谈交流思想时感到最开心。对我的朋友们,我知道该珍惜什么,容忍什么,分享什么。
我决不会忘记老朋友,同时继续结交新朋友。我对穷朋友绝不冷漠,而是关心他们,哪怕只是一句安慰的话。

篇12:介绍娱乐活动英语作文
全文共 1409 字
+ 加入清单Nowadays, there are many kinds of activities for people entertaining in their leisure time, especially in holiday, such as climbing a mountain, having a picnic, holding a party and so on. However, these recreational activities have its advantages but also bring some harmful influences to people’s lives.
First, to some extent, these recreational activities enrich people’s lives. Those who take part in different activities will not be easy to feel lonely or boring in their leisure time and live wonderful lives instead. Second, taking part in some group activities is a good form to strengthen friendships. For example, many students will hold a union to collect their old classmates or friends in winter holiday so that they have a common time to communicate with each other. Last but not least, such activities like climbing a mountain provide a good chance to do exercise.
However, these recreational activities also bring some problems at the same time. For one thing, taking part in too many these activities will increase the burden of themselves or their families because it is inevitable to spend some money in holding these activities. For another, some recreational activities have potential harm for participants’ health, particularly staying up all night, drinking and smoking.
Therefore, in my opinion, we have to make a careful consideration before we take part in these recreational activities.
