I Like Sunny Days

I really like sunny days. My mood is very good on sunny days because the sun is shining and I can see the beautiful sky. On days when the weather is not good, I would have to stay outside, and it can become boring. However if it is sunny I can enjoy the outdoors. It is good weather for jogging, taking a walk, or riding a bike. It is even better if there is a breeze, because then it is cool so it is more pleasant to be outside. Popsicles and ice creams are very good snacks for warm, sunny days. The coldness helps me cool down and feel good. I like to play games with my friends outside. We like jumping rope, playing volleyball and badminton. If the sun is very bright, sometimes it is hard to see if the sunlight is reflected into my eyes. It would be useful to have sunglasses to block the sunlight. It feels good to sweat because of exercise, because I know I am becoming healthier.

How to Make Friends

It’s hard to makefriends if you stay alone all the time. It’s easier to

make friends whenyou have similar interests. Look at people in the eyes when you

talk to them. Don’t be afraid to show people whatyou are really good at. Talk

about the things you like and do best. Be a goodlistener. Let people talk about

themselves before talking about yourself. Be friendly to a lot of people. Try to

篇7:关于世界水日的英文作文

全文共 1925 字

When it comes to the protection of water, People may know about the importance of doing it, but few people know about that March 22 is the world water day. The world water day aims to call up people’s attention to protect the fresh water and enhance the people’s awareness of water crisis. In China, the government stipulates that the last week of March is the Chinese water week. The main theme of this year is water and energy.

当提到保护资源时,人们都知道其重要性,但是只有少数人知道每年的3月22日是世界水日。世界水日旨在号召人们保护水资源和让人们意识到水资源的紧缺的危机。在中国,政府规定3月的最后一周为“中国水周”。今年世界水日的主题是“水与能源”。

Due to water, the living being can exist on earth. Water sustains human life and the environment. But with the rapid development of human society, the fresh water can hardly meet the needs of people in some areas. According to the least data, more than one billion people can not have clean fresh water. What’s worse, the surface and groundwater pollution is increasing rapidly. The main reason of water shortage is the rapid growth of population. People use different ways to get water, the water sources are being stretched to their limits. Another reason is that some factories pour dirty water into the rivers or lakes and make pollution. Thus there is less pure fresh water on the earth.

因为水,世界上的生物才得以生存。水维持了人类的生命和所生存的环境。但是随着人类社会的快速发展,淡水已经很难满足人们的需求了。根据最新的调查显示:超过10亿人喝不到干净的水。更加糟糕的是,地表和地下水污染也日趋严重。缺水的主要原因是人口的快速增长。人们用不同的方式去开采水资源,使其接近匮乏的边缘。其他原因是一些工厂直接把污水排放到河流和湖泊里面,导致了淡水被污染。因此,地球上的水资源越来越少。

It needs international cooperation and worldwide awareness to solve the problems of water shortage. Every ordinary people should realize the importance of water protection and save water. The government should take some effective measures to protect the water. Such as build more systems to clean-up the water, and collect the rainwater. Only in these ways, we can sustain our life.

解决水资源短缺的问题需要全球的合作和提高人们的环保意识。让每个普通人明白了解到保护水的重要性。政府理应采取有力措施来保护水资源。例如建造更多的净化水系统,收集雨水等等。只有这样,我们才能生存下去。

篇9:父亲节英文日记

全文共 2120 字

+ 加入清单

今年的父亲节,我终于深深地感觉到了不在爸妈身边,我会有多么想念他们,感觉就像过了好几年那么长,估计是我太想他们了吧。你们想我了没有啊?

转眼间,我就长大了,时间真是好快啊。也正是因为这样,有时候我就会想起小时候的事。

This years fathers day, I finally feel that Im not around my parents,

how much I miss them. Its like several years. I guess I miss them too much. Do

you miss me? In a flash, I grow up. Time is really fast. Because of this,

sometimes I think of my childhood.

还记得小时候你骑着自行车带着我在快车道上飞奔,只为了怕我上学迟到,追我要坐的公车;还记得我忘了带作业,你怕老师训我,不管多忙,天气多不好,你都会来学校给我送;还记得,小学的时候,老师说你是模范家长;还记得我生病肚子疼,大半夜哭着叫你帮我揉肚子,你也会困得睡着,但马上又会清醒继续帮我揉,就这样一直到天亮;还记得小时候,每次洗澡我躺在浴盆里,你都会帮我搓澡;还记得,我的脏衣服满地乱扔的时候,你会默默地把地上的衣服捡走,帮我洗干净;还记得小时候你为了送我去学琴,大冬天骑着摩托车,把腿都吹坏了,现在还经常会疼;还记得你为了工作,经常东奔西跑,忙得头发都变白了;还记得你每天早上都最早起来为我和妈妈买饭,让我和妈妈醒来总会看到桌子上摆着各式各样的早餐;还记得在我为了上学难过的时候你总会说:“没事儿,还有爸爸呢!”

I still remember when I was a child, you took me on a bicycle and galloped

in the fast lane just for fear that I would be late for school to catch the bus

I wanted to take; you also remembered that I forgot to take my homework, you

were afraid that the teacher would scold me, no matter how busy or how bad the

weather was, you would come to the school to send it to me; you also remembered

that in primary school, the teacher said you were a model parent; Remember that

when I was sick and had stomachache, I cried to ask you to knead my belly for me

in the middle of the night, and you would be sleepy to sleep, but you would

immediately wake up and continue to knead for me until dawn; remember that when

I was a child, every time I was lying in the bathtub, you would help me to rub

the bath; remember that when my dirty clothes were thrown around, you would

silently pick up the clothes on the ground and clean them for me; I still

remember when you were a kid, you blew my legs in order to send me to learn the

piano, and you often hurt in the winter when riding a motorcycle. I still

remember that you often ran around for work, and your hair turned white. I still

remember that you got up at the earliest time every morning to buy food for my

mother and me, so that my mother and I would wake up and see all kinds of

breakfast on the table; I remember when I was sad for school, you always said,

"its OK, and Dad!"

篇11:同情心英文作文

全文共 3918 字

+ 加入清单

Weve all heard the quote, Be Kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.

My husband and son died within two years of each other. From my personal experience, I believe that if we arent careful, grief can become a rather self-involved process in which we can become so focused on our own suffering that we miss the opportunity to connect with, and possibly bring comfort to, someone else who may be going through a similar experience.

Six months after my husband died, I was sinking in the quicksand of grief. I could not pull myself out of the misery.

In that moment, I actually believed that my life was more difficult than anyone else around me. Life handed me a perfectly wrapped lesson that opened my eyes to the fact that through my suffering I had allowed myself to become blinded by my self-pity.

The lesson presented itself in a health crisis. I had complications from a surgical procedure and ended up being hospitalized for four days. I was in an extreme amount of pain during this time. Between the physical pain and the emotional pain of grief, I was an absolute mess.

I should also tell you that I am a Registered Nurse. As a nurse, it is hard to be on the receiving end of medicine as the patient.

The first three nights that I was in the hospital, the same nurse took care of me. She was young, maybe in her mid to late 20s, and she hardly interacted with me at all the first two nights, other than to give my medications as scheduled. She obviously had no idea how much emotional pain I was in. How hard is it to ask your patient how shes feeling? I wrote her off as a bad nurse who had little empathy, and remained absorbed in my own emotional and physical pain.

The third night the young nurse was a little more talkative. She asked me how I was feeling (finally!). I told her that I was struggling with depression and grief because my husband had died in an airplane accident.

She looked at me and told me that her husband had died too, just two months earlier. I was stunned. Speechless. Shocked.

Never, in any of the possibilities that my mind entertained of why this nurse was so stand-offish with me, did I even consider that she might be in the same pain I was. Not only was she grieving as I was, but she was having to take care of me, instead of caring for herself and her family.

We went on to talk and share our stories about our late husbands and children. I like to think that we helped each other a bit that night.

We had much more in common than I would have believed. We were both widowed single moms with young children, and nurses. But, that was where the similarities ended. Her husband had no insurance policy. She had very little family support. She was working paycheck to paycheck to support her boys. I was humbled. I realized how much I had to be grateful for. And, frankly, I never saw life the same way after this experience.

This experience was a life-changing event for me. I had always prided myself on being an empathetic person, but I realize now that I had not really understood what being empathetic meant.

To truly be empathetic, you must be able to see beyond your own pain to be witness to the pain. I never looked at another person in the same way after this experience.

The cashier checking me out at the grocery store who seemed rude and in a hurry? Who knows what was going on in his day, week, life? Maybe he recently lost a spouse or a child. Maybe he has experienced compounded losses. I had no way of knowing what this man was going through. Who was I to judge him?

I thank death for very few things. The gift of empathy for my fellow man, and understanding that we all suffer in ways that arent always visible, are presents from death that I will always be grateful for.

Always take the time to be kind. Even when youre suffering with your own pain. And dont assume that someone else has it easier than you. You never know the battles someone else is fighting.

People always say that we should not judge a person from his appearance. In

todays society, the mass media is like the appearance, what they report will

decide the way that people treat things. For most foreigners, before they come

to China, they dont know about this country. What they learn is from the mass

media, the worse thing is that the media always report the negative sides. So

when they come to China and realize things are much funny here. Before we make

judgment, we need to search the overall information, or it is better for us to

pay a visit. The way we treat things decides what kind of person we are.

篇20:民俗文化英文

全文共 2149 字

A folk culture is a small isolated, cohesive, conservative, nearly self-sufficient group that is homogeneous in custom and race with a strong family or clan structure and highly developed rituals. Order is maintained through sanctions based in the religion or family and interpersonal. Relationships are strong. Tradition is paramount, and change comes infrequently and slowly. There is relatively little division of labor into specialized duties. Rather, each person is expected to perform a great variety of tasks, though duties may differ between the sexes. Most goods are handmade and subsistence economy prevails. Individualism is weakly developed in folk cultures as are social classes. Unaltered folk cultures no longer exist in industrialized countries such as the United States and Canada. Perhaps the nearest modern equivalent in Anglo America is the Amish, a German American farming sect that largely renounces the products and labor saving devices of the industrial age. In Amish areas, horse drawn buggies still serve as a local transportation device and the faithful are not permitted to own automobiles. The Amish's central religious concept of Demut "humility", clearly reflects the weakness of individualism and social class so typical of folk cultures and there is a corresponding strength of Amish group identity. Rarely do the Amish marry outside their sect. The religion, a variety of the Mennonite faith, provides the principal mechanism for maintaining order.

By contrast a popular culture is a large heterogeneous group often highly individualistic and a pronounced many specialized professions. Secular institutions of control such as the police and army take the place of religion and family in maintaining order, and a money-based economy prevails. Because of these contrasts, "popular" may be viewed as clearly different from "folk". The popular is replacing the folk in industrialized countries and in many developing nations. Folk-made objects give way to their popular equivalent, usually because the popular item is more quickly or cheaply produced, is easier or time saving to use or leads more prestige to the owner.
