篇2:追逐梦想初中一年级作文
全文共 1305 字
+ 加入清单科技飞速发展,时代不断变迁,皆因人类有梦想。正如黑格尔所说:“一个民族有些仰望星空的人,这个国家才有希望”。从小,父母就望子成龙,希望我成为国之栋梁。于是,那时起我就有了梦想的轮廓,或是成为一代名将,令敌国闻风丧胆,或是挥洒笔墨,,激扬文字。
小时候,我是温室的花朵,在家像原子核,在校也是风云人物,意气风发,年少轻狂的我可谓多才多艺,武术、网球、吉他、绘画等等。我沉浸在自由、无束的快感中。我有了一种梦想触手可及的错觉。
但世事难料,2017年7月9日,我跨越了近10经度来到了上海。世界便从此颠覆,成绩倒数,人生地不熟,英语老师也用我完全听不懂的上海话训斥着我,一切幻想就同那精致的高脚杯高高摔落,顷刻间支离破碎。那时的我,就像一匹来自北风的狼,顶着凄厉的北风,咬着冷冷的牙,在那无人问津的角落里,舔着令人心酸的伤口。每天没有了欢笑,没有了自由,有的只是学习,有的只是痛苦,可能是年少的心太过柔软,我总是回忆过去,可不论我怎么回忆,也没有别人眼中过电影的感受,有的只剩下那些残缺的画面,以及那些破碎的音符,甚至在时间的磨盘下,连友情也被碾碎。只是上课、补课、上课,我就像在沼泽中挣扎,越是挣扎,越是痛苦,越是痛苦,越是挣扎,当时总有一种大旱之望云翳之感,当时的我,已不知梦想沦为何物。
在痛苦的深渊中,我的灵魂被狠狠的刺痛了,我想起了儿时的誓言:我要让我的身上闪射出东方朝阳的光芒,就如黎明中一个积雪的孤峰。
赫拉克里特曾说过:我寻找过我自己。而我要成为我自己,不再让晦暗的心态,不堪的成绩,掩埋自己的梦想,我不愿在青色的墓碑上只留下瞬间的美丽。我要以强大的内心,强有力的意志,重塑起我深邃的灵魂,毋宁死,也不要被着违背了一切教育的最高原则:“只有饥饿者,才能与之食。”的中式教育变成学习机器,我要成为我之为我者。尼采曾高呼:如果有上帝,我无法忍受我不是上帝。我也要怒喊,无论有没有上帝,我才是我的上帝。从觉悟的那一天起,我学习,就不再是为了攀上巨人们的肩膀去看巨人是多么伟岸,而是为了站在巨人的肩上去看那天空是多么辽阔!歌德说过:“创造是人类最内在的天性。”我就要带着酒神精神,去创造,创造那片属于我自己的天空。若是有人问我:“这天空所在何处?”我会以最柔和的嗓音,告诉他最狂妄的梦想----心有多大,天就有多大,目光所指之处,处处我之天下,我要扼住命运的喉咙。对我来说梦想不是成为下一个谁,而是成为心中期待的自己。
哲人说,要真正体验生命,你必须站在生命之上。为此要学会向高处攀登,为此要学会,俯视下方。我要让我的生命怒放,让我成为我之为我者,只有这样我才能追逐人生的梦想,才能拥有绚烂的人生,即使我失败了,可我相信我依然走在不敢迈出脚步的人的前面。
而今的自己,已算有了足够的淡定清明,除却了青春的骚动浮华,多了份对梦想的渴望与希求。梦在远方,即使化做太阳,我也要同那夸父,永不停下追梦的步。也许若干年后,我还能以清澈的目光了望曾经动荡颠沛的生活,那我依然是我。“天空中不留下鸟的痕迹,但我已飞过。”
成为我自己,可以没有我想要的一切,但如果没有梦想,哪里还有人生?先锋已去,谁在虚掷光阴?

worries teachers and parents. As for me, I don’t agree to puppy love. No matter
admit it or not, puppy love will certainly have negative influence on study,
because it takes much time and energy. But the most important is that middle
school students are not mature enough to operate a relationship. The favorable
impression to others may be the momentary impulse that will not last very long

responsibilities of love. What should they do is put their study in priority and
wait with patience, because true love is worth of waiting.

Not only did I clean the bowls and cookers, but I put all the messy things away. Tired and sweaty, I was about to open the door to throw rubbish when my parents showed up at the door. They were amazed to see what I had done and praised me. From then on, I determined to work harder to do more for my family.

篇9:我的医生梦初中一年级作文
全文共 1162 字
+ 加入清单是的,人人都有一个梦想,我也不列外。
有的人像成为医生,救人负伤,舍己为人;有人想曾为辩论家,铁齿铜牙,路易不绝;有人想成为是诗人,好词佳句,出口成诗;有人想成为律师,保护弱小,坚持正义,还有人……
然而我却想当一名医生!
当医生这个梦想是我在7岁时产生的。
七岁那年的暑假太阳大极了,雨也是时不时的倾盆而下,知了也在不停的叫着,更是给这个夏天添加了一份童趣。
在我的眼里一切都是那么的美好,但大人们却焦急的仿佛像热锅上的蚂蚁似的,焦急的东奔西跑,说是借钱。我不懂为什么,妈妈说,奶奶得了白血病,我问白血病是什么?奶奶会怎么样?你们为什么那么焦急?可还没等我说完妈妈就叹着气,摇着头的走开了。
事后,我再一想,已经将近有半年多没看见奶奶了,好想去看看奶奶啊,当我想爸妈提出这个要求是,爸妈只是淡淡的敷衍了我几句就让我自己去玩了。
没过多久,我就在那依旧烈日炎炎的日子里上学了,学习充满了我的时间,我无暇再去想其他的事。
那是个阴云密布的日子,不知道为什么,可能是我被老师批评了的缘由吧,我的心情格外的低落,沉重。但学业繁重的我无暇估计这些,只能再次振作起来为下节课做准备。
那节课是语文课,语文老师上课时的生动有趣是全校出名的,我听着听着就忘记了烦恼,心情也不再低落,沉重,可就在这时,一个人闯入了教室,我一看,是爸爸,他怎么来了?还显得这么风尘仆仆!我心里正纳闷这,想要开口问,可爸爸抓起我的胳膊就往外走,我不想走,使劲的抓着门槛不放,爸爸怒了,‘啪’的一声给了我一耳光,我的眼泪啥时间就不争气的流了下来,我做错了什么呀?!我委屈极了。生气的对我大喊:”你奶奶快死了你知道吗,你居然还哭,哭什么哭?还不快走。“说完,就转过头草草的对老师说了句请假就把我拉走了。
在车里,我想问爸爸奶奶为什么要死了?可我连续问了几下爸爸都没有管我,在我问道第N遍是爸爸突然大吼,闭嘴!我吓得不敢之声,只好独自看窗外的景色,但窗外的景色几乎就像光是的一闪而过。
等到了医院时,爸爸几乎是提着我把我拉到了奶奶的病房,可我什么也没见到,只有亲戚们抽泣或是毫无表情的脸,我问,奶奶呢?妈妈把我拉到了外面告诉我奶奶已经死了,再当我问乃你啊怎么死的时候,妈妈回答道,医疗水平太低了,说着说着就哭了起来,听到这一消息,我的泪水也不断地流了出来,眼泪鼻涕糊在脸上分不清,那时的我那儿能受得了那么大的打击啊!每次的不开心都是奶奶哄,每次的生气都是奶奶指导,每次的开心都是和奶奶分享……最後我甚至都不知道自己是怎么会的家的,只记得醒来显示自己已经躺在床上了,真希望那是一场梦啊!
这就是我要成为医生的原因了,我长大後一定要成为各救死扶伤,舍己为人,公正待人的医生,我还要改进中国的治疗技术,让白血病治好再也不是梦想,那些疑难杂症也只是一场梦,让大家不是去挚爱的亲人。
这就是我的一个梦。

Yesterday I had a surprise call from Tom suggesting we turn out for a short ride. This being my intention anyway I gladly agreed and we met up at Jiedaokou Station at about ten o’clock.
As Tom has a permanent Sunday Lunch appointment at 12-30pm we opted to make a round trip to Hannan . The weather was cloudy but dry and as we were both a bit out of condition after a long winter lay off we took the easy option of taking the train to Shiyan to get us on top of the ridge with an easy start for the trip.
A long coast down to Jiangtan and straight on to Mount End saw us climbing up to Zhongshan Park. The climb got stiffer but still Tom kept on riding. Gritting my teeth I followed on and crested the hill, Then the usual Essex switchback with an enforced short walk for both of us part way along saw us at Tawny common. Round the common we went, to the Mole Trap, an erstwhile rough old country pub now tarted up for the motorists. I don’t go in there any more, so we sat on the adjacent public seat for a while and a short natter.
Time enough to break away, Tom to his lunch appointment, me for home by way of theYellow Crane Tower and Changjiang Bridge. See you in a while, crocodile! I arrived home about 2 o’clock. Just in time for my own Sunday lunch .
