四级作文范文汇总5篇 高中英语作文模板【汇集20篇】

Hi, TigerMom ,

What puzzles you is actually a puzzle for many parents in China . My idea

is that it is quite right for you to do so .

Although high grades are an important factor in evaluating students and for

their future university admission , development in wisdom emotion ,health and

life attitude should never be ignored . There are many examples around us . Some

all—A students in school have turned out not to be as successful in society as

they were expected. The reason is often that the pressure from their parents

allows them almost no time for other activities . Furthermore , punishment is by

no means a wise choice to help them grow up mentally and physically .

So I suggest that you take your friends’ advice . More importantly, let her

live like a lovely girl ; let her have more friends and social activities ; and

let her make mistakes of her own as we teenagers often do .

For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay based on the picture below.

You should start your essay with a brief account of the impact of the Internet on the way people communicate and then explain whether electronic communication can replace face-to-face contact. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

“Dear Andy-How are youYour mother and I are fine .We both miss you and hope you are doing well. We look forward to seeing you again the next time your computer crashes and you come downstairs for something to eat, Love, Mom and Dad.”

范文: The modern technology has greatly altered the mode of

communication among people. With the help of the Internet, people can easily contact each other anytime anywhere. However, the side effect is that many people have become over-dependent on the Internet and neglected face-to-face communication.

As far as Im concerned, electronic communication cannot fully replace the direct contact among people. Although it seems to bring everyone together, it actually estranges people and decreases the effectiveness of communication. A typical example is that, traditionally, people working in the same office simply walk to others and talk. Today, however, co-workers tend to send e-mails or instant messages through the Internet even when they are sitting next to each other. As words can never convey the full message, it usually takes much more time and rounds of conversation than face-to-face communication, in which people can discuss more directly with less loss of information.

To conclude, the Internet enables more effective communication in some situations, but over-dependence on it actually pulls people apart.

Nowadays, pets become so close and friendly to our human-beings that more

and more people enjoy keeping them. Pets can bring them a lot of joys and

happiness, because playing with pets is a good way to communicate with the

nature. Besides, pets can comfort old people who live alone. With the companion

of pets, they won’t feel lonely. Nevertheless, I’m not interested in keeping

pets at all. For one thing, keeping pets is bad for environmental protection,

since pets usually make a lot of noise and contaminate the roads. For another,

the virus carried by pets may cause fatal disease. What’s more, sometimes pets

may attack people when they are unhappy. Consequently, we had better not keep

too many pets, so as to ensure our health and security. Besides, those pet

lovers must take some effective measures to prevent their pets from hurting

people and polluting our environment.

我是如此的幸福，所以我都没想过要珍惜这一切。我可以说得上是挑食的人。

People travel by plane, by train, by ship, by bus. To me, the best way of traveling on a summer vacation is to go on foot.

My preference depends on the purpose of the travel. On a summer vacation I travel to refresh myself and to see the countryside. When I use my feet and walk on a grass covered path along a river or among the hills I feel detached from the noise of the city and closer to the nature. And when I travel on foot I get more freedom. I can plan my own schedule. I can choose my own route. I can stop where I like. And I can see things and people that I might miss if I travel on a train or on a bus. net

When faster and more convenient ways for travel are becoming available, I still favor using my own feet. I get much pleasure from it. People travel by plane, by train, by ship, by bus. To me, the best way of traveling on a summer vacation is to go on foot.

People often ask and are asked that what is the most important thing in

life. Some people answer that family is the most important and others say love,

work or money. In my opinion, health is the most important in life. However, how

to keep healthy?

Firstly, being positive. A positive attitude towards life must be good to

health. It also brings you power to overcome disease. Secondly, taking exercise

regularly. Taking exercise regularly or even every day helps you build a strong

body which is the base of health. Exercise can improve the ability of the body

to fight disease. Thirdly, making friends, because friendship is an important

part to influence your health. Many studies show that people with a wide range

of social contacts get sick less than those who dont. I always feel better when

I am with friends than when I am alone. Finally, eating properly, having good

rest and building normal daily routine are aslo important to health.

Health is a problem we should attach importance to. Only build a healthy

body can us live a better life.

When I go to high school, our school has the rule to ask students to live

in the dormitory. Most students live with their parents before, so we all feel

excited and afraid of the group life. Luckily, I have three nice roommates. Soon

we become close friends. Living with others, we learn to do the house work, such

as everyone needs take turn to clean the floor, when we have something good to

eat, we will share with each other. The group life makes us have less private

space, but we enjoy the moment when we have the little talk before sleep, the

secrets that we dont want our parents know can talk to these girls. Whats

more, I become much independent. I learn to take care of myself and have really

grown up.

as our contemporary society develops dramatically， a worrying problem has sprung up that the degree of trust among individuals has decreased。 for example， when we meet a man begging for money due to his handicapped leg in the street， we are considering whether he is cheating us。 plus， in the business circle， we consumers couldn’t easily believe what the merchant has guaranteed。

all these problems mentioned above are reduced to adverse consequences。 especially， in the corporate world exists the prevalence of dishonesty。 influenced by these phenomena， we， invariably， become increasing cautious about other’s guarantee， even a piece of word。 thus， this trend does much harm to the commodity economy。

the underlying reason for these phenomena is the distorted mentality of money worship。 there are an army of figures expect getting by with cheating customers by selling fake products。 but， they would inevitably suffer penalty。 so， honesty counts most。 to sum up， we， average citizens， can eliminate the feeling of distrust via treating others honestly and paying confidence to others。

What is your favorite kind of music? Do you like jazz, popular music,

classical music, folk songs, blues, and so on? In high school I took one course

called music appreciation which I greatly enjoyed. This was not to learn how to

play a specific instrument but to learn how to read and listen to music as an

art form. We read the stories about the lives of many composers and the history

of the musical instruments themselves. Sometimes we listened to tapes at the

language laboratory, or concerts. Music is sometimes called a universal

language. A composer who cannot speak a single word of our language can make us

feel joy and pride, exaltation and despair, peace and mystery through his

music.

朋友可以是同学，可以是萍水相逢的人，也可以是忘年交……从小到大，我们都有朋友，但总有一个最好的朋友。

我最好的朋友是小兔。 小兔这个名称很适合她，她比较瘦，戴着一副眼镜，在她的身上总能找到天真可爱的气息。

上体育课时，她跑得可快啦!她跑起来像一阵风，鬼点子很多，你总不知道她在想什么。

上课时，她会认真听讲，总不分神;下课时，她也会很高兴地和我们玩耍;很大方，但唱歌时，总是有一点羞涩;放学时，她的欢声笑语回荡在僻静的小路上。

有一天放学后，我和他走在僻静的小路上，看见了一只可爱的小猫正“喵喵喵喵”地叫着，它的毛是雪白的，耳朵是粉红色的短短的胡须，它那绿宝石一样的眼睛里泛着灵气。小兔慢慢地移动了视线，“呀!”小兔惊叫一声，“它的小腿受伤了，我们把它带回家去包扎一下吧!”小兔说完，用可怜的目光看着它，又用恳求的目光看着我，生怕我不答应她似地。“好吧。”我答应了。她高兴地把它抱起来，轻轻地抚摸了它几下，说：“我们走吧。”我们飞快地回到了家里。

回到家后，我们把它的伤口清洗了一下，又找来纱布把伤口包扎了一下，给它喂了一点饼干，喝了一点水，我们对它可真像对一个病人呀。

后来，小猫的伤好了，已经可以走路了，它高兴地摇摇尾巴，淘气的冲我们叫个不停，似乎在表达我们对它的救助之恩。我们也经常一起去看望它，照顾它，我们三个成了好朋友。

我还要感谢这只小猫呢，如果不是它，我和小兔之间的友谊也不会像宝石一样坚固呢!

Summer can be very hot in southern taibei where the temperature usually goes up to 32"C or more. Because of the heat it is a trying experience to go to school or do anything else in a place that is not air-conditioned. Also because of this I stay at home most of the time during the summer vacation and only occasionally go to the beach to plunge myself into the cool water as a way to keep my body less sticky. Actually I like swimming and think nothing is more refreshing than a swim. In the summer vacation that has just ended I went swimming many times with my classmates and we all had a good time. This summer vacation, however, was not spent entirely in seeking fun. As a second-year senior student I had to prepare myself for the college entrance examinations that were only a year away. In other words, I must find time to study, too. So I divided my time between work and play during the summer vacation and derived much benefit from this arrangement.

I spent this summer vacation in quite a different way. I used to run about every day in previous summer vacations, but this summer vacation I simply could not afford to do so. I would soon be in the last year of my high-school education and would after graduation be up against the college entrance examinations. Though those examinations were still a year away, I had to start early to make myself well prepared by reviewing all those things I had learned at school and this summer vacation was the ideal time for me to do this. At first I was rather dismayed at the thought of this, but later I thought it was better this way because by working hard this summer I could count on endless happy summers to come. With this in mind I then set to work like anything and only occasionally went out for a change or did some physical. I was not at all bored by this kind of life, for I was sustained by a hope.

Sky blue, white clouds, there is a lake, the lake side, there are several willow willow girl gently stroked the lake brothers cheek. From a few bird crow, originally is the orioles singing in the willows; In the distance, several egrets fly in the blue sky. as du fu "two oriole sound cui willow, a line of egrets on the sky." Ah! What a beautiful artistic conception! Now most people aspire to the living environment, but with the development of the industry, a large number of harmful gas and industrial wastewater discharge, make the earths temperature, water pollution. Plus deforestation, forest is less and less, and the earth mother in tears every day, so were going to action, and low carbon environmental protection together, let the earth mother no longer cry, to return to the beautiful youth.

NO. 1 - dont be lazy, blindly now peoples environmental protection consciousness enhancement, everywhere the bin in the street, as long as more than a few steps you can see it so dont be lazy oh! Do this, move the brain, and also note the rubbish to see garbage is recycled or not in his hand, and then throw. Dont see someone is thrown on the ground, throw myself, dont learn others, should be timely dissuade him (her).

NO. 2 - to save water, protection of water resources is well known, "water is the source of life". The water on the earth is very rich, but it can directly for people to drink fresh water accounts for less than 1%, the rest of the 99% water, so we have to economize on water. On the basis of this, but also reduce the discharge of industrial and living sewage.

NO. 3, energy conservation and emissions reduction, low carbon life

We should pay attention to energy saving, solar terms, fuel-efficient, start from the intravenous drip, as far as possible to reduce electricity, oil, gas, reduce the use of disposable supplies, go out, in their own cars less as far as possible by bus, reduce the discharge of domestic water and garbage. We must learn to energy conservation and emissions reduction, low carbon life.

NO. 4 - trees

The "lungs of the earth, the forest is one of natures temperature regulator. Forests absorb large amounts of carbon dioxide during photosynthesis and release a large amount of oxygen, maintaining the carbon - oxygen balance of nature, thus purify air environment, make us breathe fresh air, so we want to afforestation more, make the earth green.

Low carbon environmental protection is every citizen to do your own thing, left everyones participation and support, and low-carbon environmental protection is meaningless. Lets erase carbon footprint will low carbon environmental protection, let us hand in hand into the low carbon era.

天蓝蓝的，白云悠悠，有一个湖泊，湖泊旁有几棵柳树，柳姑娘轻轻抚摸着湖水弟弟的脸颊。不时传来几声鸟啼声，原来是黄鹂在柳树上鸣叫;远处，有几只白鹭飞上蓝天。正如杜甫绝句中“两个黄鹂鸣翠柳，一行白鹭上青天。”啊!多么美的意境呀!现在人们大多向往这样的生活环境，但随着工业的发展，大量有害气体和工业污水排出，使地球温度升高，水资源污染。再加上滥砍乱伐，是森林少而又少，地球妈妈每天都在流眼泪,所以我们要行动起来，一起低碳环保，让地球妈妈不再哭泣，重回青春美丽。

NO.1----不要偷懒，盲目从众现在人们的环保意识已经增强，在大街上随处可见垃圾箱，只要多走几步就能看见它因此不要偷懒噢!做到了这一点，还要注意扔垃圾的时候动一下脑子，看手上拿的垃圾是可回收还是不可回收，然后再扔。不要看见有人随手扔在地上，自己也扔，不要学别人，应及时劝阻他(她)。

NO.2----节约用水，保护水资源众所周知，"水是生命之源.地球上的水资源很丰富，但能直接供人饮用的淡水占还不到1%,其余的99%为海水，所以我们要节约用水。在这一基础上，还要减少排放工业，生活污水。

NO.3----节能减排，低碳生活

我们要注意节电,节气，节油，从点滴做起，尽可能减少电，油，气的使用，减少使用一次性用品，出门尽量少开私家车，多坐公交车，减少家庭用水和垃圾的产生量。我们要学会节能减排，低碳生活。

NO.4----植树造林

“地球之肺”--森林是大自然的温度调节器。森林通过光合作用吸收大量的二氧化碳并释放出大量的氧气，维持了大自然的碳—氧平衡，从而净化空气环境，使我们呼吸新鲜空气，因此我们要多植树造林，使地球绿意盎然。

低碳环保是每个公民自己的事，离开了每个人的参与和支持，低碳环保就是一句空话。让我们抹去碳足迹将低碳环保进行到底，让我们携手走进低碳时代。

When I was very small, my grandpa liked to tell me his tough year and I liked to listen to him. At that time, wars were everywhere, people ran away for keeping alive.

Peace is the main theme of today’s world, we can chase our dreams and enjoy our life, but we must remember the contribution which is from our predecessors.

在我很小的时候，爷爷很喜欢给我讲他的艰难岁月，我也喜欢听他讲。那个时候，战争无处不在，人们为了活命而逃亡。爷爷总是很饿，因为他没有东西吃。人们在新中国成立前过着艰难的生活。今天，中国的经济发展快速，我们过上了好生活，不再为饥饿挣扎。多亏了我们伟大的先辈们，他们为了开拓了道路。我们享受这和平的生活，我知道这来之不易。爷爷教育我不要浪费食物，我一直记着他的话。和平是世界现在的主题，我们可以追求梦想，快乐生活，但是我们必须记得先辈们的贡献。

Oceans becoming more acidicThe worlds oceans are slowly getting more acidic, say scientists.The researchers from California say the change is taking place in response to higher levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.The lowering of the waters pH value is not great at the moment but could pose a serious threat to current marine life if it continues, they warn.Ken Caldeira and Michael Wickett, from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, report their concerns in the journal Nature.Increasing use of fossil fuels means more carbon dioxide is going into the air, and most of it will eventually be absorbed by seawater.

Once in the water, it reacts to form carbonic acid.Scientists believe that the oceans have already become slightly more acidic over the last century.But these researchers have tried to predict what will happen in the future by combining what we know about the history of the oceans with computer models of climate change."This level of acidity will get much more extreme in the future if we continue releasing CO2 into the atmosphere," said Dr Caldeira."And we predicted amounts of future acidity that exceed anything we saw over the last several hundred million years, apart from perhaps after rare catastrophic events such as asteroid impacts."If carbon dioxide release continues unabated, ocean pH could be reduced by as much as 0.77 units, the authors warn.It is not absolutely clear what that means for marine life, however.

Most organisms live near the surface, where the greatest pH change would be expected to occur, but deep-ocean lifeforms may be more sensitive to pH changes.Coral reefs and other organisms whose skeletons or shells contain calcium carbonate may be particularly affected, the team speculate. They could find it much more difficult to build these structures in water with a lower pH.In recent years some people have suggested deliberately storing carbon dioxide from power stations in the deep ocean as a way of curbing global warming.But Dr Caldeira said that such a strategy should now be re-considered."Previously, most experts had looked at ocean absorption of carbon dioxide as a good thing - because in releasing CO2 into the atmosphere we warm the planet; and when CO2 is absorbed by the ocean, it reduces the amount of greenhouse warming.
