篇2:我喜欢的老师英文

Mr. Louis is my Chinese teacher. She was of medium height, slender, with two eyebrows on her lanky face, a pair of squinting eyes, and a pair of pink glasses on her high nose, about thirty years old. Her speech was vivid and vivid in class, her tone was cadenced and her emotions were real. People are kind and strict.

I remember that it was one of the things that happened early on, and I came to the school early in the morning and put my exercise books on the table, and I happily picked up the Chinese book and read aloud the text aloud.

After about a quarter of an hour or so, Mr. Louis walked into the classroom with a smile on his face, went up to the lectern, took out the red pen and handed the students the homework. After more than ten books, I found that the teachers face gradually changed from sunny to cloudy, and some of my classmates workbooks were taken to the stage. When it was my turn, my heart was both happy and afraid. I was glad that the teacher could see the homework I had finished. The fear is that the teacher will also take away my exercise book. Not sure enough, I saw the workbook lying on the table, trying to get it down, but it was impossible.

After class, the teacher overlooks his face and says to us, "if you want to have a workbook, please come to my office." Then he picked up the book and went away. I breathed a sigh of relief, but I was still not happy. I didnt know what was waiting for me: reprimand, criticism, praise... Oh, I dont think so.

After the second lesson, I and the students went to the teachers office and prepared to be taught. Who knows, the teacher changed the normal, kindly say: "last night go back why dont finish earnestly, ask you a few to correct the error in the workbook." Several of us took the exercise books nervously and fell on the teachers desk to correct them all. Then, let the teacher see again. Then the teacher smiled and said, "thats right. The people who read more should pay attention, the homework also cannot be careless!" We listened, and the mood was like a stone falling to the ground and running out of the office.

You say, how can such a teacher not let us like?

Film Review of Pride and Prejudice

Pride and Prejudice is a famous classic written by Jane Austen. I was attracted by the characters and plots of the film adapted from the novel.

Elizabeth is the heroine of the story. When she meets Darcy, a handsome, rich but arrogant man, on the party for the first time, she is dissatisfied with the proud manner of Darcy. Darcy looks down on those who are in a lower social class,

including Elizabeth. However, after getting to know the courage, independence and confidence of Elizabeth, he almost falls in love with her. But Elizabeth believes the lies of Wickham which causes her great prejudice to Darcy. She rejects Darcy’s propose marriage to protect her self-respect. Finally, Darcy goes away because he couldn’t tolerate Elizabeth’s sisters’ vulgar manners. He writes a long letter to explain his thoughts and love to Elizabeth. After reading it, Elizabeth feels guilty about

misjudging Darcy and regrets turning him down. As time goes away, Darcy gradually improves his pride and keeps helping Elizabeth’s family out from troubles. At last, Elizabeth removes the prejudice to Darcy and accepts his propose marriage.

From the film I learn that we can’t judge a man immediately by the first impression. If we are controlled by our subjective senses, it will easy cause prejudice and

misunderstanding and probably influent the developments of many events. To avoid this situation, we need more communication to understand others deeply by ourselves.

Carrying Faggots to Put Out a Fire

In the last years of the Warring States period, the State of Qin attacked the State of Wei on a large scale repeatedly and occupied large areas of land, for the State of Wei was too weak to defend itself. In 273 B.B., the qin army launched another attack upon the State of Wei with a momentum more vigorous than ever. The king of the State of Wei summoned his officials,and asked with a worried look if anyone could propose a way to defeat the Qin army. After years of chaos caused by the wars,the officials trembled when fighting was mentioned, and no one dared to speak ofresistance. At the critical moment when a large enemy force was bearing down upon the border, most of the offinials persuaded the king to sue for peace, at the cost of giving away to the State of Qin the large area of land north of the Huanghe River and south of the Taihang Mountain. However Su Dai, a counsellor, did not agree. He hurried up to the king and said:"Your Majesty, they dont think about the interests of the country at all.It is just because they are cowardly and afraid of death that they ask you to sue for peace by betraying the country. Of course you can temperarily satisfy the ambition of the king of the State of Qin is insatiably greedy. It will never stop assaulting us until our land is totally given away."Once there was a man whose house was on fire. People told him to put out the fire with water, but he would not listen. Instead, he carried a faggot to put out the fire, only to make the fire fiercer. That was because he didnt know that,instead of putting out the fire, faggots could only make it burning more vigorously. Isnt it equivalent to carrying faggots to put out a fire if you agree to sue for peace at the cost of the land of the State of Wei?"Though Su Dais argument was very convincing, the king accepted the suggestion of those officials and gave away to the State of Qin a large area of the land of the State of Wei. For the king of the State of Wei was cowardly and only cared for peace at the moment.As might be expected,the Qin army assaulted the State of Wei on a large scale in 225 B.C.,surrounding the capital city Daliang and flooding it by digging open the dykes of the Huanghe River.The State of Wei was finally destroyed by the State of Qin.This story appears in the Historical Records Written by Sima Qian.The set phrase"carrying faggots to put out a fire"is used to mean adopting a wrong method to save a situation and ending up by making it worse.

战国末期,秦国向魏国接连发动大规模的进攻,魏国无力抵抗,大片土地都被秦军占领了。到公元前273年,秦国又一次向魏国出兵,势头空前猛烈。

魏王把大臣们召来,愁眉苦脸地问大家有没有使秦国退兵的办法。大臣们由于经过多年的战乱,提起打仗就吓得哆嗦,谁也不敢谈“抵抗”二字。在这大兵压境的危急时刻,多数大臣都劝魏王,用黄河以北和太行山以南的大片土地为代价,向秦王求和。

谋士苏代听了这些话,很不以为然,忙上前对魏王说:“大王,他们是因为自己胆小怕死,才让您去卖国求和,根本不为国家着想。您想,把大片土地割让给秦国虽然暂时满足了秦王的野心,但秦国的欲望是无止境的,只要魏国的土地没割完,秦军就不会停止进攻我们。”

说到这里,苏代讲了一个故事:从前有一个人,他的房子起火了,别人劝他快用水去浇灭大火,但他不听,偏抱起一捆柴草去救火,是因为他不懂得柴草不但不能灭火反而能助长火势的道理。大王若同意拿着魏国土地去求和,不就等于抱着柴草救火吗?”

尽管苏代讲得头头是道,但是胆小的魏王只顾眼前的太平,还是依大臣们的意见把魏国大片土地割让给秦国。到公元225年,果然秦军又向魏国大举进攻,包围了国都大梁,掘开黄河大堤让洪水淹没了大梁城,魏国终于被秦国灭掉了。

故事出自《史记魏世家》。成语“抱薪救火”比喻用错误的方法去消灭祸害,结果反而使祸害扩大。

although honesty is believed to be a virtue, there are still dishonest people in our society。 for example, some businessmen sell fake product to their consumers; some students cheat in the exams。

dishonest people are short-sighted。 those who sell fake products may make money at first, but consumers wont buy their products any more。 as a result, they will lose their fortune or even be sent to prison。 by contrast, honest people gain a lot。those who always tell truth or keep to their promise not only let others trust them but gain respect from other people as well。 such persons are sure to have a lot of good friends。 because they are trustable and respectable, everyone is eager to make friends with them, besides, it is easier for a person with a good record to get a good job。 generally speaking, every employer wants his employees to be honest。 so we can say that anyone who is honest will be paid back later。

in a word, honesty wins trust, respect and honor。 so it is important that we should be honest。
