living in a big city英语作文(一)

Compared to last years statistics, this year more and more youngsters would like to launch a career in first-tier cities. There is no doubt that residing in big cities brings more chances to be hired and promoted. Futher benefits associated with big cities are higher income, indeed decent social status, and the most prevalent pastimes.

Virtually, each coin has two sides. There are also lots of disadvantages living in first-tier cities. With the explosive growth of house price and higher price of commodities,inevitably, you would burden more pressure living in big cities. Likewise, big city has a dense and large population. As a result, you may encounter vast crowds of people when you are out, and you have to wait in a long queues at the hospitals when you get ill as well.

In my points, only by discovering yourself and knowing whats your niche areas can you hope to lead a better life. As for fortune, as for fame, they are of no consequence just like floating clouds. Nothing is more significant than your own happiness.

living in a big city英语作文(二)

The city is the place where all industrial, cultural and educational centers are situated. In big cities you can find museums, theaters, clubs, cinemas, big shops and hospitals, comfortable modern flats.

People try to live in cites because all necessary objects are situated nearby. For example if you get ill a hospital or a chemists shop will be situated near your home in the city, and if you live in the country it will be hard to find any medical help very quickly.

Also in big cites you can find all sorts of entertainment such as cinemas, clubs entertaining parks and so on. Many people like to spend their free time there because it helps them to relax and bring them a lot of pleasure.

It is really convenient that everything you need in daily life is situated near you. One of the most important comforts of big cites is that you can quickly get everywhere you like by underground, bus, trolleybus. Also in big cities there is electricity therefore you can use electrical devices such as TV sets, computers, radio, microwave oven, refrigerators and so on.

One more thing, without which it would be impossible to live today is the telephone and where there is a telephone there is also Internet. The communication (связь) has huge value in the life of people and we have got used to it to such extent that if there is no telephone we feel uncomfortable and lonely.

Yes, it is really comfortable, and at first glance everything is good but nowadays big cites there are a great amount of cars and factories. Big cites suffer of overpopulation, dirty air, and water, The streets became noisy and after hardworking day people cannot relax.

People try to do everything to go to the countryside because only there they can find silence. Every holiday and every weekend people try to leave their houses and go to the country.

I live in … district. The ecological conditions here are very bad because near my house a lot of industrial objects are situated. For example near … factory is situated. As for me I prefer to live in a big city because a lot of big shops are situated near my home, but I also like to spend my holidays in the country because after living in the city for about 9 months I begin to get tired.

Life is a struggle. I shall never forget the most striking part of Henry

Wadsworth Longfellow s poem -- A Psalm of Life: "In the worlds blood field of

battle, In the bivouac of life, Be not like dumb, driven cattle! Be a hero in

the strife!"

Ludwig van Beethoven was a typical "hero in the strife". He was not only

one of the greatest composers, but also one of the most persevering men. As a

deaf man, he went on working with his strong will in the last year of his life,

though he was not able to hear his own fine and original music. Another example

of persistence in struggle is Deng Yaping. She once said that her technique came

from continuous training, emphasizing the importance of daily practice to a

player.

As a student, I seem to be in a boat sailiug against the current. I must

make an effort to forge ahead. A little carelessness will result in being driven

back. Indeed, learning is a struggle against idleness and carelessness.

Following the examples of Ludwig van Beethoven and Deng Yaping, I shall take

great pains to urge myself on, moving steadily forward like a heroic boatman in

the rough sea of knowledge.

Though we are told that alcohol is dangerous, especially driving a car

after drinking alcohol, we can see the news about car accidents because of the

driver drinking alcohol everyday, still people ignore the danger of drinking

alcohol. Life is precious, no one will take responsibility of our lives except

ourselves. Drinking too much will do harm to our body, even if you don’t cherish

your life, while when you drive the car after drinking, you will take away other

people’s lives. That is unforgivable, people have a happy family, they die

because of your careless driving, and you will never have a chance to make up.

Our government is very strict to the driver, the law clearly claims that

drinking driver will be heavily punished. In order to make sure other people’s

safety, we should not drive the car after drinking alcohol, or we ask friends to

take us home.

Knowledge can be acquired from many sources. These include books, teachers and practical experience, and each has its own advantages. The knowledge we gain from books and formal education enables us to learn about things that we have no opportunity to experience in daily life. We can study all the places in the world and learn from people we will never meet in our lifetime, just by reading about them in books. We can also develop our analytical skills and learn how to view and interpret the world around us in different ways. Furthermore, we can learn from the past by reading books. In this way, we won’t repeat the mistakes of others and can build on their achievements.

获得知识的来源有很多。这些包括书籍，教师和实践经验，每个人都有自己的优点。知识从书本上及正规教育使我们知道在日常生活中没有机会经历的事情。我们可以研究世界各地的人学习我们不会在我们的有生之年遇见，只在书上读到的人。我们也可以培养分析的技巧，并学习如何看待和理解我们周围的世界以不同的方式。此外，我们可以从过去中学习，通过阅读书籍。这样，我们就不会再重复别人的错误，并且能够以他人的成就。

Practical experience, on the other hand, can give us more useful knowledge. It is said that one learns best by doing, and I believe that this is true, whether one is successful or not. In fact, I think making mistakes is the best way to learn. Moreover, if one wants to make new advances, it is necessary to act. Innovations do not come about through reading but through experimentation. Finally, one can apply the skills and insights gained through the study of books to practical experience, making an already meaningful experience more meaningful. However, unless it is applied to real experiences, book knowledge remains theoretical and, in the end, is useless. That is why I believe that knowledge gained from practical experience is more important than that acquired from books.

实践经验，另一方面，可以给我们更多有用的知识。这是说从做中学的效果最好，我相信这是真的，无论一个人成功与否。事实上，我认为犯错是最好的学习方式。此外，如果想要有新的进展，这是必要的行动。创新不能只靠阅读是实验。最后，我们可以将所获得的技巧和见解通过书籍来实践经验的研究，使得原本有意义的经验变得更有意义。然而，除非它应用于实际经验，书本知识是理论和，最后，是无用的。那就是为什么我会认为从实际经验中获得的知识比从书本中学到的更重要。

篇一：Work and Happiness

Happiness is dependent upon work. Sometimes we complain that we have too much work, but we fail to realize that it’s our work that keep us moving on and helps us to become a better man. Last summer I visited my friends in a small village. It was obvious that working has become an indispensable part of their daily lives. They all went to the field to plant the crops. The sun was shinning above them and they looked quite happiness about their work. On their face there were such smiles as I had never seen before.

Work provide us with happiness. Work is more than a necessity for human beings. If we have no work to do, we will waste our precious time. That’s pity. We will lose everything in the end. Work helps us to realize the importance of life, then we will appreciate it more. Everybody who live in this society could not live without working. If we spend every day idly, we will find life is boring.

幸福建立在工作之上。有时候我们抱怨我们有太多的工作要做，却忽略了工作可以让人不断进步，从而成为一个更好的人。上个暑假我去一个小村庄拜访了我的朋友。显而易见，工作已经成为了他们不可缺的一部分。他们全都到地里面种庄稼。太阳当空照，他们看起来对自己的工作非常是满意。对人类来说，工作不仅仅是种必需品。如果我们没有工作，那么，时间就会白白浪费掉。真真是可惜。最后，我们会失去所有的东西。工作帮助人们意识到生活的重要性，让我们更加珍惜。每个生活在社会中的人都必须工作，免得就不能生存下去。如果每天都无所事事，那么，我们会发现生活非常无趣。

篇二：football 足球

Football is the most popular ball in the world. More and more people like watching football matches. They can’t sleep or eat when their teams are playing.They shout for their players. I think many Chinese football player have done better match after match since the Professional Football league of China was set up. But we still have a long way to go to Asia and to the world. We should learn from foreign teams. Foreign players and coaches must be invited. Dalian Wanda, Shanghai Shenhua and Guangd0ng Apollo are among the best.

足球是世界上最流行的球类运动。现在越来越多韵人喜欢看足球比赛，当他们的球队参加比赛的时候，他们可以废寝忘食地为他们的队员加油。我认为自从中国足协建立以来，许多中国足球的比赛踢得一场比一场好了。但是我们的足球要冲出亚洲、奔向世界还有非常长的路要走。我们应该向国外的球队学习，邀请一些外国的运动员和教练到我们中间来。大连万达、上海申花、广东太阳神都是最出色的球队。

篇三：True Beauty

Everyone is attracted by beauty and beauty is powerful. But what is true beauty? Perhaps you can get the answer from the following story.

This morning I went to the market to buy some vegetables with my parents. On the way we all highly praised a young man in western-style clothes and leather shoes who was riding by. But he rode so fast that he knocked an old lady down carelessly.Instead of stopping, he pretended not to see this and rode away quickly. We were all very angry with the young man. To our happiness, a girl in plain dress ran forward at once, helped the lady up and took her home. We all praised the girl.

From this we know we cannot judge a person by his appearance. A person who is dressed beautifully may not have a beautiful soul. Only a person who has a beautiful soul is really beautiful

每个人都会被美所吸引,荚有强大的力量。但什么是真正的美呢?或许你可以从下面的故事得到答案。

今天早上我去市场买些蔬菜和我的父母。在路上我们都高度赞扬一个年轻人他骑在西式的衣服和皮鞋。但是他骑得太快了,不小心把一位老太太撞倒。他没有阻止,而是假装没有看到飞快地骑走了。我们都非常生气的年轻人。我们的幸福,一个女孩穿着朴素立刻跑过来,帮助这位女士,带她回家。我们都赞扬了女孩。

从这我们知道我们不能通过外表来判断一个人。一个人可以没有美丽的心灵是打扮得漂漂亮亮。”只有一个人有一个美丽的灵魂真漂亮

In order to make our city cleaner and more beautiful, the young volunteers

of our school went to the Peoples Park this morning and offered our help.

At eight, the head of the park met us at the gate. After being divided into

groups, we set out to work at once. Some tidied up the parking area and had

motorbikes paiked in the right place. Some took care of the flowers and bushes,

and persuaded people to keep off the grass. Around the tiger den, one group kept

order to prevent accidents from happening. At the aquarium, another group worked

as guides and advised visitors not to smoke. When some of us were doing

cleaning, an old man praised us and said, "Well done, young fellows!

We were all tired but happy. What a morning we had today!

Recently, it has been reported that a college student went to Guangzhou for

travel, but she missed, finally, the policeman found her body. It is so

terrible, this incident warns people to protect themselves, especially for the

girls. First, we’d better travel with friends. Traveling alone is very popular

among the young people, because they are independent and chase for freedom, so

they like to go without friends. Then they are easily becoming the gangster’s

targets. Therefore, having someone accompany not only can share the opinion, but

also can be safe. Second, it is better not to go to the place which is dark and

less people. The bad guys like to choose this place because they will not be

noticed and are easy to do the criminal things. We need to learn to protect

ourselves, life is precious.

我们的潜意识里藏着一派田园诗般的风光! 我们仿佛身处一次横贯大陆的漫漫旅程之中! 乘着火车， 我们领略着窗外流动的景色：附近高速公路上奔驰的汽车、十字路口处招手的孩童、远山上吃草的牛群、源源不断地从电厂排放出的烟尘、一片片的玉米和小麦、平原与山谷、群山与绵延的丘陵、天空映衬下城市的轮廓， 以及乡间的庄园宅第!

but uppermost in our minds is the final destination. on a certain day at a certain hour, we will pull into the station. bands will be playing and flags waving. once we get there, so many wonderful dreams will come true and the pieces of our lives will fit together like a completed jigsaw puzzle. how restlessly we pace the aisles, damning the minutes for loitering --waiting, waiting, waiting for the station.

"when we reach the station, that will be it! "we cry. "when im 18. ""when i buy a new 450sl mercedes benz! ""when i put the last kid through college. ""when i have paid off the mortgage!""when i get a promotion.""when i reach the age of retirement, i shall live happily ever after! "

然而我们心里想得最多的却是最终的目的地! 在某一天的某一时刻， 我们将会抵达进站! 迎接我们的将是乐队和飘舞的彩旗! 一旦到了那儿， 多少美梦将成为现实， 我们的生活也将变得完整， 如同一块理好了的拼图! 可是我们现在在过道里不耐烦地踱来踱去， 咒骂火车的拖拖拉拉! 我们期待着， 期待着， 期待着火车进站的那一刻!

"当我们到站的时候， 一切就都好了! "我们呼喊着! "当我18岁的时候! ""当我有了一辆新450sl奔驰的时候! ""当我供最小的孩子念完大学的时候! ""当我偿清贷款的时候! ""当我官升高任的时候! ""当我到了退休的时候， 就可以从此过上幸福的生活啦! "

sooner or later, we must realize there is no station, no one place to arrive at once and for all. the true joy of life is the trip. the station is only a dream. it constantly outdistances us.

"relish the moment "is a good motto, especially when coupled with psalm 118：24："this is the day which the lord hath made;we will rejoice and be glad in it. "it isnt the burdens of today that drive men mad. it is the regrets over yesterday and the fear of tomorrow. regret and fear are twin thieves who rob us of today.

可是我们终究会认识到人生的旅途中并没有车站， 也没有能够"一到永逸"的地方!生活的真正乐趣在于旅行的过程， 而车站不过是个梦， 它始终遥遥领先于我们!

"享受现在"是句很好的箴言， 尤其是当它与《圣经·诗篇》中第118页24行的一段话相映衬的时候， 更是如此："今日乃主所创造;生活在今日我们将欢欣、高兴! "真正令人发疯的不是今日的负担， 而是对昨日的悔恨及对明日的恐惧! 悔恨与恐惧是一对孪生窃贼， 将今天从你我身边偷走!

so stop pacing the aisles and counting the miles. in stead, climb more mountains, eat more ice cream, go barefoot more often, swim more rivers, watch more sunsets, laugh more, cry less. life must be lived as we go along. the station will come soon enough.

那么就不要在过道里徘徊吧， 别老惦记着你离车站还有多远! 何不换一种活法， 将更多的高山攀爬， 多吃点儿冰淇淋甜甜嘴巴， 经常光着脚板儿溜达溜达， 在更多的河流里畅游， 多看看夕阳西下， 多点欢笑哈哈， 少让泪水滴答! 生活得一边过一边瞧! 车站就会很快到达!

Seasons have colors. What are the four seasons colors like?

Spring is green. When spring comes, trees begin to bud and grass begin to

grow. It is really a green world, and it is also the color of hope.What about

summer? When I look at flowers of almost all kinds in blossom, I know that the

color of summer is red.Compared with summer, autumn is totally different color,

especially in the north of our country. The rice in the fields and fruits on the

branches are the signals of autumn. It is the color filled with ripeness. Gold

is the symbol of harvest.Winter is the world of snow. Therefore, white is the

color of winter.

Seasons have colors and the changing of the four seasons makes the land

colorful and energetic.

Xiao Hong is going to learn to ride bicycles. She is on the bike and ready

to ride when her father, mother and grandmother come and help her.Her father

holds one handle of the bike, and her mother holds the other,with a first-aid

box on the shoulder. Her grandmother holds the back seat tightly. They are all

wet with sweat. However, the bike is being moved not by Xiao Hong herself but by

her parents and grandmother. "Let me do it myself, will you?" says Xiao Hong to

them. From this picture, we can see how much the parents care for the children.

In my opinion, it is right that parents should take care of their children. But

as children, we need the chance to learn and practice some skills by ourselves.

We need to grow up independently. Let us do it ourselves.

On a sunny day, Xiao Hong is learning to ride bicycles. She is about to

ride when her parents and grandmother come and help her. They hold the handles

and the back seat. Her mother carries a first-aid box on the shoulder. They look

worried and are all wet with sweat. The bike moves ahead. However, it is driven

not by Xiao Hong but by her parents and grandmother. "Let me do it myself, will

you?" says Xiao Hong to them. In fact, the parents love their children very

much. I agree that parents should take good care of their children, but parents

shouldnt help them do everything. After all children need to practice and be

independent. They need to grow up themselves. Parents should stand aside and let

them do if they can do it themselves.

When we are feeling sick and lying in bed, is parents will take care of us; When we test sent, it is parents encourage us; When we made a mistake, it is the parents education in the us to correct our mistakes...

Thank my parents when I was frustrated, encouraged me, comfort me, give me courage, let me set up confidence to face the difficulties bravely. Remember a math test, I only got eighty points. I returned home, sadly homework also do bad, eat not sweet. Mom saw my abnormal, kindly ask me why sat by my side. I YiWuYiShiBa exam told his mother the truth, I didnt expect that my mother did not criticize me, instead, comfort I said: "good kid, a failure is not equal to yourself is not good, do you want to analysis the reason, well know where mistakes, this is progress." Listen to the mother, I feel much more relaxed.

Have words to say well "who made the heart-inch grass, at a three chunhui". Therefore, in order to repay hard raising my parents, I must study hard now, when I grow up, find a good job, let parents abetted. Parents paid for me, I will thank you ten times, one hundred times, return them, let them give valuable.

当我们生病卧床不起时，是父母在无微不至地照顾着我们;当我们考试考差了，是父母的鼓励着我们;当我们犯了错误，是父母的教育着我们改正错误......

感谢父母在我受到挫折时，鼓励我、安慰我、给我勇气，让我树立自信勇敢地去面对困难。记得一次数学测验，我只考了八十多分。我垂头丧气地回到家，作业也做不好，饭吃不香。妈妈看见我的反常，坐在我的身边和蔼地问我原因。我一五一十把考试的实情告诉了妈妈，令我没想到的是妈妈不但没有批评我，反而安慰我说：“好孩子，一次失败不等于自己就不优秀了，你要好好地分析原因，知道错误到哪里，这就是进步。”听了妈妈的话，我的心情一下子轻松多了。

有一句话说得好“谁言寸草心，报得三春晖”。因此，为了报答辛苦养育我的父母，我现在一定要好好学习，长大后，找一个好的工作，让父母安享晚年。父母为我付出的，我将十倍、百倍的感谢、回报他们，让他们的付出有价值。

When July comes, it is the hottest time of the whole summer. Many of my

friends have chosen to travel to the cool place, so as to avoid the stuffy air.

As for me, I dont like to travel in this hot weather. I just want to stay

indoors and enjoy the quiet moment. I like to sit near the window, watching

outside scenery. Sometimes I will read some books, enjoy the novel and make

myself lost in the fiction world. The things I like to do most is to find a

coffee shop and then choose a table that is near the window, so that I can see

all the situation. I will bring my computer and then play the computer for the

whole afternoon. It is what I like to do in the summer. I enjoy it.

As it is known to us all, there are 55 minority groups in China, each with its traditional customs, costumes and culture. Now let’s take a look at the Tibetan Minority.

The Tibetan Minority group live in Qinghai, Gansu, Sichuan and Yunnan Province. And the highest ridge in the world─beautiful and mysterious Tibet is their major habitat .

As the fertilized prairie stretches around the habitants as far as the eyes can see, most people live on animal husbandry, raising sheep, goats, cattle and growing a special kind of plant called Qingke. On account of the unique climate, people often wear warm and comfortable boots in winter, and they are always dressed in delicate robes which are made of the fur of sheep. Often they take off one sleeve of the clothes and tie it around their waists in order to work easily and use it as warm quilts at night.

Both men and women there like wearing silver ornaments, which look very mysterious and full of magical power. And they are good at singing and dancing, and the men there can have braids too. When they meet an important guest, they will present him or her a Hada, a piece of long white silk cloth to show their respect. And they will also treat the guest to a special kind of drink called Suyou Tea, which some people find hard to enjoy.

Besides, the habitants have developed both their own written and spoken languages, and the long poems they wrote play an important role in Chinese literature. And there are many well-protected culture relics as well, taking the grand Budala Palace as an example. It is a historical museum as well as an art treasury, where people can share their spirit belief in Buddhism and get artistic entertainment of the carved paintings and the beautifully-written chirographies.

The Tibetan ethnic group is also famous for its strange custom in funeral. Thinking that the soul belongs to the sky after a person dies, they usually put the body on a platform outdoors, spray on it and wait the condors to come to eat the body. In this way, they believe the soul goes up to the sky.

The Tibetan Minority is brimming over with deep emotions. The people there are very zealous and hospitable and they live freely and happily on the spacious grassland. Their history and culture contribute to the diversity of China, so we certainly should protect them and get them popularized and let them receive great respect they deserve.

As the society developing,noisy has effect our healthy and work.The result of noisy is that people dont protect our environment.They think our socitey is developing so fast,noisy is less and less important.But,if we dont have a good environment,how should we develop our lives? Lets keep us from the noisy.We should have a quiet and good environment to study and work.And only by this can we develop well.I think that everyone makes a contribution to protect our environment,the noisy can disappear sooner or later,our world can become more and more beautiful.

【参考译文】

随着社会的发展，噪声影响了我们的健康和工作。吵闹的结果是人们不保护我们的环境。他们认为我们的社会发展如此之快，噪音是不重要的。但是，如果我们没有一个好的环境，我们应该怎样发展我们的生活?让我们远离喧嚣，我们应该有一个安静和良好的环境来学习和工作，只有这样我们才能发展得很好，我认为每个人都作出贡献，保护我们的环境，嘈杂可以消失迟早，我们的世界变得越来越美丽。

“Growing Pains” seems full of knowledge and experience. So it does because

all of us have growing pains and also growing gains in our lives.

Growing up is not a very enjoyable time. It means I have to work hard in

studying and in family. Theres always so much homework given by teachers and so

many arguments between the parents and me. The time is fair, but it seems it

gives pains three quarters and only one quarter to gains.

But gains give me power and confidence. Successes and friendship make me

happy and enjoyable. We played with snow in the winter that seldom snows, we

flew kites in the night that usually belongs to homework, we ate several ice

creams that almost made us cold. We picked up leaven that no longer high up!

Although pains are always more than gains, I believe both of them make my

life more colorful

One day three men got a bottle of wine. But the wine was not enough for the

three and each of them wanted to drink the wine alone. Then they all agreed that

they each would draw a snake on the ground and the one who first finished

drawing would be given the wine. So they began to draw on the ground with

sticks.

It was not long before one of the three finished drawing his snake. He took

up the bottle of wine with pride. He was about to drink when he found the other

two were still busy with their drawings. “How slow you are!” said he, “I can

even add feet to my snake before you finish yours.” He put down the bottle and

began to add feet to his snake. But before he finished, another man took hold of

the bottle and said ,“Ive finished. Snakes have no feet, so yours is not a

snake.” With these words he drank up the wine.

I am getting my internship now, I am being an English teacher in a college,

I really enjoy being a teacher, passing my knowledge to the students, I also

like to communicate with my students, we share own opinion and talk happily.

During those internship days, I realize that a good teacher should also be the

students’ friend.

As a teacher, my duty is to teach my students with my knowledge, I will do

my best to teach them, making them learn knowledge at the easiest way. At the

same time, I also need to improve myself, so that I will keep pace with the

world and refresh my knowledge, teaching my students with the newest

information.

As a friend, the students are willing to talk to me, they like to share

their happiness and sorrow with me, they need a listener and I am their best

choice. Being the students’ friend closers our distance, I can get to know them

and give my best advice.

A good teacher must be a good friend to students, that is what I have

learned during my internship days, I want to do my job well in the following

days.

Times are changing day by day. Doing the shopping is easier. Most people

are better-dressed and they enjoy modern life.

Girls are changing, too. There are many differences between the older and

younger generations.

I know a twelve-year-old girl, who, to my surprise, has little time to

play. She told me that she dreamt of being a dancer, so she must learn to dance,

play music and so on. Sometimes, she is out of breath under such pressure, but

she can’t stop because modern life is busy.

In addition, I find those girls know more and more. Although they are

little girls, they know how to dress fashionably. Sometimes they look older than

their age, though.

As an older female, I realize that compared with the modern girls, my

generation is less well-educated and takes part in fewer leisure activities. I

realize that we don’t make full use of our time the way they do. Therefore, we

should try our best to value our time and pursue our dreams.

Confident, proud and energetic, modern girls represent new times.

there are gains for all our losses,

there are balms for all our pain;

but when youth, the dream, departs

it takes something from our hearts,

and it never comes again.

we are stronger, and are better,

under manhood’s sterner reign;

still we feel that something sweet

followed youth, with flying feet,

and will never come again.

something beautiful is vanished,

and we sigh for it in vain;

we behold it everywhere,

on the earth, and in the air,

but it never comes again!
