I have many hobbies: reading books, raising pets, making dresses, etc. I like volleyball very much, but I cant play it very often, because it is a team sport. It is difficult to get enough people to play volleyball with me. Its a shame. I derive great pleasure out of my hobbies.

篇12：关于介绍蜘蛛的英语作文
全文共 1907 字
+ 加入清单Why, you may wonder, should spiders be our friends? Because they destroy so many insects, and insects include some of the greatest enemies of the human race.Insects would make it impossible for us to live in the world; they would devour all our crops and kill our flocks and herds, if it were not for the protection we get from insect-eating animals.We owe a lot to the birds and beasts who eat insects but all of them put together kill only a fraction of the number destroyed by spiders.Moreover, unlike some of the other insect eaters, spiders never do the least harm to us or our belongings.
Spiders are not insects, as many people think, nor even nearly related to them.One can tell the difference almost at a glance, for a spider always has eight legs and an insect never more than six.
How many spiders are engaged in this work on our behalf? One authority on spiders made a census of the spiders in a grass field in the south of England, and he estimated that there were more than 2,250,000 in one acre; that is something like 6,000,000 spiders of different kinds on a football pitch.Spiders are busy for at least half the year in killing insects.It is impossible to make more than the wildest guess at how many they kill, but they are hungry creatures, not content with only three meals a day.It has been estimated that the weight of all the insects destroyed by spiders in Britain in one year would be greater than the total weight of all the human beings in the country.
你可能会觉得奇怪，蜘蛛怎么会是我们的朋友呢?因为它们能消灭那么多的昆虫，其中包括一些人类的大敌。要不是人类受一些食虫动物的保护，昆虫就会使我们无法在地球上生活下去，昆虫会吞食我们的全部庄稼，杀死我们的成群的牛羊。我们要十分感谢那些吃昆虫的鸟和兽，然而把它们所杀死的昆虫全部加在一起也只相当于蜘蛛所消灭的一小部分。此外，蜘蛛不同于其他食虫动物，它们丝毫不危害我们和我们的财物。
许多人认为蜘蛛是昆虫，但它们不是昆虫，甚至与昆虫毫无关系。人们几乎一眼就能看出二者的差异，因为蜘蛛都是8条腿，而昆虫的腿从不超过6条。
有多少蜘蛛在为我们效力呢?一位研究蜘蛛的权威对英国南部一块草坪上的蜘蛛作了一次调查。他估计每英亩草坪里有225万多只蜘蛛。这就是说，在一个足球场上约有600万只不同种类的蜘蛛。蜘蛛至少有半年忙于吃昆虫。它们一年中消灭了多少昆虫，我们简直无法猜测，它们是吃不饱的动物，不满意一日三餐。据估计，在英国蜘蛛一年里所消灭昆虫的重量超过了这个国家人口的总重量。

一对兄弟收到了一封信,给了他一百万英镑。
原来兄弟打赌,赌如果一个贫穷、诚实的人从天空坠落收到一百万英镑,他会有什么结果?
哥哥,他会饿死,因为他无法证明这些钱是他自己的,别人会怀疑,甚至银行不会允许他省钱。
哥哥认为他会很好,所以他们兄弟将一百万英镑的支票借给穷人,和国外花了三十天。
我没有想到在这个时候,突然间丰富的财富的人罕见,很难真正吸引他从免费食物,买衣服,到免费住宿,一个个像乞丐一样,喜欢取悦他,并不断提高他的社会地位,直到室外除了国王公爵之上!
不仅如此,他有一个好妻子和三万英镑的银行利息。自那以后生活非常幸福的生活。
看到这儿,我很羡慕“幸运”的主人公,但我想:为什么人们请他,不是因为它太注重钱了吗?
敬拜的钱是可耻的,不劳而获我们不应该!
钱不是万能的世界上有许多比金钱更重要的东西。
文章对“金钱就是一切”“金钱是万能的,“讽刺和揭露资本主义社会的丑恶嘴脸,和黑暗的统治。

篇17：关于介绍中国的餐桌礼仪的英语作文
全文共 1541 字
+ 加入清单Table Manners
The main difference between Chinese and western eating habits is that unlike the West, where everyone has their own plate of food, in China the dishes are placed on the table and everybody shares. If you are being treated by a Chinese host, be prepared for a ton of food. Chinese are very proud of their culture of cuisine and will do their best to show their hospitality.
And sometimes the Chinese host use their chopsticks to put food in your bowl or plate. This is a sign of politeness. The appropriate thing to do would be to eat the whatever-it-is and say how yummy it is. If you feel uncomfortable with this, you can just say a polite thank you and leave the food there.
Eating No-nos
Dont stick your chopsticks upright in the rice bowl.Instead,lay them on your dish. The reason for this is that when somebody dies,the shrine to them contains a bowl of sand or rice with two sticks of incense stuck upright in it. So if you stick your chopsticks in the rice bowl, it looks like this shrine and is equivalent to wishing death upon a person at the table!
Make sure the spout of the teapot is not facing anyone. It is impolite to set the teapot down where the spout is facing towards somebody. The spout should always be directed to where nobody is sitting, usually just outward from the table.
Dont tap on your bowl with your chopsticks.Beggars tap on their bowls, so this is not polite.Also, when the food is coming too slow in a restarant, people will tap their bowls. If you are in someones home,it is like insulting the cook.
