When it comes to success, different people have different opinions about

what makes it come true. Some people regard hard-working as an essential quality

to success while others believe being clever would lead to success. From my

point of view, I think perseverance and hard-working are indispensable for those

who want to make an achievement.

Firstly, perseverance let people step closely towards success. Most people

want to make a big difference to prove their value. People who set their goal

and keep moving would make their dream come true. However, there are some people

who set their goal but they stop at the difficulty would fail in the end. I

think the difference between success and failure is perseverance. If we have

perseverance, even if we are not clever, we will make a great difference, but if

we not, we are doomed to lose. As we all know, Edison is a great inventor in the

world. However, before he invented the bulb, he kept trying for tens of

thousands of times to find a suitable wire. Let us imagine, if he gave up at the

999th, then how he couldn’t become so successful. So, I strongly believe that

perseverance produces success.

Secondly, there is also a kind of people who are born with cleverness, I

think they are lucky. Nevertheless, if they don’t make a hard work on their way

to their goal, they, absolutely, will become loser. Whether we are gifted for

intelligent, we must be hard-working so as to success. I regard hard-working as

an efficient approach to be successful because I believe ‘pains and gains’. As

for those who do not make great efforts on work, failure follows. In old times,

there is a clever boy who can make excellent poem when he can talk. When his

father found the little child’s cleverness, he just let the child make poems to

show around while never let the boy learned anything. When the boy grew up,

people forgot him because he lost the ability to compose poems and became

ordinary as others. From this matter, we can see that only by hard-working can

we get knowledge and make a good future.

Anyway, I think perseverance and hard-working are both important in our way

to success for they enhance us and produce success.

I love to read. When I was three years old, my parents had taught me to

read. They bought me some books with funny and colorful pictures. Soon I was

attracted by these stories and fell in love with reading. Since I went to

school, I often went to the library and it was my favorite place. Studying in

the library provided me a silent environment. The most important thing was that

as so many excellent students sat around me. I felt the great motivation to move

on. I could find the data any time and read the books I liked. I have gained a

lot of knowledge and find the great hour there.

Today, I according to the requirements of the teacher to investigate around the situation of environmental protection.

I first came to the park, they saw there is rubbish everywhere. My eyes have an aunt, she sat on the bench, eating melon seeds, also threw the sunflower seeds are all over the floor. I have seen very angry, I go to aunt ZuQuan. But she has a pair of claptrap, on high. I saw a cleaner in cleaning, but the speed of people around the rubbish much faster than they clean.

And I went to the park on the east side of the river, see plastic bags floating on the water, biscuits, bags... There are a few small fishs body even, sending out the thick disgusting smell.

I went to the vegetable market, see the ground is covered with rotten vegetables leaf, fruit, and poultry feathers and viscera, so dirty ground let my feet wouldnt hurt a fly. Oh dear! Too bad! I stepped on a banana skin and wrestling, pants are wet! I quickly get up, hurriedly escape.

The surrounding environment is terrible, if he did not pay attention to protect, we human beings will not survive. Lets act together, protect the environment, start from the "I".

今天，我按老师的要求去调查周围环境保护的情况。

我先来到公园，就看见那儿到处都是垃圾。我眼前有一个阿姨，她坐在石凳上，吃着瓜子，还把瓜子壳扔得满地都是。我看见了很生气，就去阻劝阿姨。可她却一副事不关己，高高在上的样子。我看见有清洁工在打扫卫生，可是周围人扔垃圾的速度远比他们打扫的要快得多。

我又来到了公园东侧的小河边，看见水面上漂浮着塑料袋、饼干包装袋……甚至还飘着几条小鱼的尸体，散发着一股股令人作呕的气味。

我来到了菜市场，看见地上尽是烂菜叶、烂水果，还有还有家禽的羽毛及内脏，这么脏的地面让我的脚都不敢踩下去了。哎呀!糟了!我踩在香蕉皮上摔跤了，裤子都被弄湿了!我赶紧爬起来，慌忙逃离。

周围的环境简直糟透了，若再不注意保护，我们人类定将无法生存。让我们一起行动起来吧，保护环境，从“我”做起。

So every year they hoped that the Spring Festival would come soon. Now， although people‘s life is much better，and we can eat the delicious foods everyday. People still like the festival. Because most people can have a long holiday，and we are free to go on a trip or visit our friends or have parties with our family.

I like the Spring Festival very much. How wonderful the Spring Festival is！

I will be full after eating several dishes. But one day, I watch a piece of news on TV. It is about some Africa children who are suffering starvation. They are so poor. They are not only having no food to eat but also having little water to drink. A bowl of rice is very rare for them. Seeing their longing eyes, I feel guilty. I am regret about wasting food before. How can I waste so much rare food? From now on, I will try my best to save food, to do something for them.

“终于到期末考试了，以后就不用上英语课了！”一大早，同学们就商量着考完试后做什么事情。“英语老师来啦！快快快！”不知何人大声喊叫，同学们听到后，就开始乱读，读什么的都有：teacher、singer、bybike…我终于知道到应有尽有的意思了。

监考老师刘老师来了，刚到就说了句：“人，要做君子。”同桌轻轻地嘀咕里一句：君子迟早会在战场上阵亡的，我不要做君子。对于同桌的这句话，我真的是无可奈何。我开始审题了，一题一题都看的十分仔细，听力部分的时候，讲台桌里的音箱发出低沉的声音，震得地板都在颤抖着，我也迷迷糊糊的，听不清它说的是什么单词，非得把耳朵往前，仔细听这才听得清楚。听力部分终于熬过去了，到笔试部分了，我开始奋笔勤书，一个单词都不丢下的看过去，终于写完了。我开始检查了，发现错误很少，几乎没有错误，这才放心的等待着交卷。

收卷以后，同学说这张试卷中有陷阱，我在人群中挤了又挤，终于听清楚了，有一道题是阅读短文中没有的，应该选择：Sorry，Idoutnow。完了，我中计了，怎么期末考试还有陷阱的，两分就这么没了。

监考老师刚走，科学老师就来了，这考试真得小心点，千万别掉陷阱里了。

The class teacher and we discussed the "food security". In todays society, human food safety has been a serious threat.

Now the children all like to eat snacks, and addicted to eat. Although parents tell them who is bad to the body, but they still continue to buy snacks, just have a fair into a "sneak". In the snack, the children to buy one of the most dangerous, is the spicy dry tofu.

Understanding on the Internet, I learned the spicy dry tofu is composed of metamorphic pork, plastic bags, such as some are unsafe, unhealthy materials again. Look at the pictures, some of the staff in the processing, should put the foot on the above, this is how not health! So I advise you not to eat spicy dry tofu also dont eat snacks again as far as possible.

There are a lot of people like to eat mutton string, and believe. It tastes very good taste, and there is a sheep shan wei, let people think this is the authentic lamb kebabs.

You might ask: "sheeps shan wei?" Shan wei is put "mutton string" sheep sheep urine bubble in some time, and then a wash, so the "delicious" clusters of mutton string was baked out. Here, dont I advised, I believe that you have not eat?

Now, can not eat meat, vegetables are dangerous, most of the vegetables are chemical pesticides, so you must be clean and wash the vegetables to eat, after all, it may do harm to your familys health.

Now, food safety not guaranteed, and peoples health is threatened, so making the uncles and aunts of food to ensure food safety, ensure peoples health.

这一节课老师与我们讨论了“食品安全”。在当今社会，人类的食品安全已受到了严重的威胁。

现在的孩子们都喜欢吃零食，而且吃上了瘾。尽管家长们告诉他们那些是对身体不好的，但他们还是一如既往的买零食，只不过有光明正大变成“偷偷摸摸”。在零食中，孩子们买的最危险的，就是辣条了。

在网上了解，我的得知辣条是由变质的猪肉，塑料袋等一些极不安全，又不健康的材料制作而成。看那些图片，有些工作人员在加工时，竟把脚放在了上面，这是多么不卫生啊!所以我劝大家不要再吃辣条了也尽量不要再吃零食了。

羊肉串，相信也有很多人喜欢吃。它吃起来口感很好，而且有一股羊膻味，让人们以为这就是正宗的羊肉串了。其实不是，羊肉串虽叫羊肉串，但是谁能保证上面的肉一定是羊肉呢?说不定是猪肉，这还算好的。有些竟是用老鼠肉做的，这样你还吃的下去吗?你可能会问：“羊膻味又是怎么来的呢?”羊膻味是把“羊肉串”放在羊尿里泡上一些时日，然后冲洗一下，这样一串串“香喷喷”的羊肉串就被烤出来了。说到这里，不用我劝，相信你就已经不会再吃了吧?

现在，肉不可以吃，蔬菜也有危险，大部分蔬菜都会打农药，所以大家洗蔬菜时一定要清洗干净再吃，毕竟它会危害家人的健康。

现在，食品安全得不到保证，人们的健康受到威胁，所以制作食品的叔叔阿姨们要保证食品的安全，保证人们的健康。

I learned that animals are part of our nature. We should protect them. We can

记叙文是记人叙事的文章，它主要是用于说明事件的时间、背景、起因、过程及结果，即我们通常所说的五个" W "( what, who, when, where, why )和一个" H "( how )。记叙文的重点在于"述说"和"描写"，因此一篇好的记叙文要叙述条理清楚，描写生动形象。下面就谈谈英语记叙文的特点和写好记叙文的基本要领。

一、记叙文的特点

1. 叙述的人称

英语的记叙文一般是以第一或第三人称的角度来叙述的。用第一称表示的是由叙述者亲眼所见、亲耳所闻的经历。它的优点在于能把故事的情节通过"我"来传达给读者，使人读后感到真实可信，如身临其境。如：

The other day, I was driving along the street. Suddenly, a car lost its control and ran directly towards me fast. I was so frightened that I quickly turned to the left side. But it was too late. The car hit my bike and I fell off it.

用第三人称叙述，优点在于叙述者不受"我"活动范围以内的人和事物的限制，而是通过作者与读者之外的第三者，直接把故事中的情节展现在读者面前，文章的客观性很强。如：

Little Tom was going to school with an umbrella, for it was raining hard. On the way, he saw an old woman walking in the rain with nothing to cover. Tom went up to the old woman and wanted to share the umbrella with her, but he was too short. What could he do? Then he had a good idea.

2. 动词的时态

在记叙文中，记和叙都离不开动词。所以动词出现率最高，且富于变化。记叙文中用得最多的是动词的过去的，这是英语记叙文区别于汉语记叙文的关键之处。英语写作的优美之处就在于这些动词时态的变化，正是这一点才使得所记、所叙有鲜活的动态感、鲜明的层次感和立体感。

3. 叙述的顺序

记叙一件事要有一定的顺序。无论是顺叙、倒叙、插叙还是补叙，都要让读者能弄清事情的来龙去脉。顺叙最容易操作，较容易给读者提供有关事情的空间和时间线索。但这种方法也容易使文章显得平铺直叙，读起来平淡乏味。倒叙、插叙、补叙等叙述方法能有效地提高文章的结构效果，让所叙之事跌宕起伏，使读者在阅读时思维产生较大的跳跃，从而为文章所吸引，深入其中。但这些方法如果使用不当，则容易弄巧成拙，使文章结构散乱，头绪不清，让读者不知所云。

4. 叙述的过渡

过渡在上下文中起着承上启下、融会贯通的作用。过渡往往用在地点转移或时间、事件转换以及由概括说明到具体叙述时。如：

In my summer holidays, I did a lot of things. Apart form doing my homework, reading an English novel, watching TV and doing some housework, I went on a trip to Qingdao. It is really a beautiful city. There are many places of interest to see. But what impressed me most was the sunrise.

The next morning I got up early. I was very happy because it was a fine day. By the time I got to the beach, the clouds on the horizon were turning red. In a little while, a small part of the sun was gradually appearing. The sun was very red, not shining. It rose slowly. At last it broke through the red clouds and jumped above the sea, just like a deep-red ball. At the same time the clouds and the sea water became red and bright.

What a moving and unforgettable scene!

5. 叙述与对话

引用故事情节中主要人物的对话是记叙文提高表现力的一种好方法。适当地用直接引语代替间接的主观叙述，可以客观生动地反映人物的性格、品质和心理状态，使记叙生动、有趣，使文章内容更加充实、具体。试比较下面两段的叙述效果：

I was in the kitchen, and I was cooking something. Suddenly I heard a loud noise from the front. I thought maybe someone was knocking the door. I asked who it was but I heard no reply. After a while I saw my cat running across the parlor. I realized it was the cat. I felt released.

这本来应是一段故事性很强的文字，但经作者这么一写，就不那么吸引人了。原因是文中用的都是叙述模式，没有人物语言，把"悬念"给冲淡了。可作如下调整：

I was in the kitchen cooking something. "Crash!" a loud noise came from the front. Thinking someone was knocking at the door, I asked, "Who?" No reply. After a while, I saw my cat running across the parlor. "Its you." I said, quite released.

二、写好记叙文的基本要领

1. 头绪分明，脉络清楚

写好记叙文，首先要头绪分明，脉络清楚，明确文章要求写什么。要对所写的事件或人物进行分析，弄清事件发生、发展一直到结束的整个过程，然后再收集选取素材。这些素材都应该跟上述五个" W "和一个" H "有关。尽管不是每篇记叙文里都必须包括这些" W "和" H "，但动笔之前，围绕五个" W "和" H "进行构思是必不可少的。

2. 突出中心，详略得当

在文章的框架确定后，对支持故事的素材的选取是很关键的。选材要注意取舍，应该从表现文章主题的需要出发，分清主次，定好详略。要突出重点，详写细述那些能表现文章主题的重要情节，略写粗述那么非关键的次要情节。面面俱到反而使情节罗列化，使人不得要领。这一点是写好记叙文要解决的一个基本问题，也需要一定的技巧。如：

One night a man came to our house and told me, "There is a family with eight children. They have not eaten for days." I took some food with me and went.

When I finally came to that family, I saw the faces of those little children disfigured (破坏外貌) by hunger. There was no sorrow or sadness in their faces, just the deep pain of hunger.

I gave the rice to the mother. She divided the rice in two, and went out, carrying half the rice. When she came back, I asked her, "Where did you go?" she gave me this simple answer, "To my neighbors - they are hungry also!"

3. 用活语言，准确生动

记叙文要用具体的事件和生动的语言对人、事、物加以叙述。一篇好的记叙文的语言既要准确、生动，又要表现力强，这样才能把人、事描写得具体生动，其可读性才强。试比较下面一篇例文修改的前后效果。

原文：

One day Xiaoqiang was wandering away. He was soon lost among people and traffic. He could not find the way back home and started crying. Just then, two young students who were passing by found him standing alone in front of a shop and crying. They went up to Xiaoqiang and asked him what had happened. Xiaoqiang told them how he got lost and where he lived. The two students decided to take him home. Mother was pleased to see Xiaoqiang come back safe and sound. She invited the two students into the house and gave them some money, but they didnt take it. She served them with tea but they left.

修改后：

The other day, five-year-old Xiaoqiang left home alone and wandered happily in the street. After some time, he felt hungry so he wanted to go back home. But he found he was lost among the crowded people and heavy traffic. When he could not find the way home, he started and crying. Just then, two young students who were passing by from school found him sanding crying in front of a shop. They immediately went up to him.

"Little boy, why are you standing here crying?" they asked.

"I want Mom, I go home." said the boy, still crying.

"Dont worry, well send you home."

And they spent the next two hours looking for the boys house. With the help of a policeman, they finally found it.

When the worried mother saw her son come back safe and sound, she was so thankful and she invited the students into her house. Gratefully, she offered them some money, saying it was a way to express her thanks, but the young students firmly refused it and left without even a cup of tea.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Good morning! I am Oscar, the spokesman of the Students’ Union. On behalf

of the Students’ Union, the main organizer of today’s sports meeting, I welcome

you all to the beautiful stadium. After two months’ preparation, our annual

sports meeting is held on schedule.

Thanks to the support and help from our school leaders and teachers. Though

they have many school responsibilities, they have taken time off to take part in

our sports activities. Let’s give them a big hand. Through sports, we can not

only develop our physical prowess, but also promote social and emotional skills,

and even intellectual skills, which will matter in our future lives

substantially. So hope everybody here cherish this opportunity and enjoy it.

At last, best wishes for the success of the sports meeting and best wishes

for the good results of our athletes. It is my pleasure to announce the open of

the sports meeting. Thank you and good luck!
