+ 加入清单No matter the day is how to spend endless， the sun always rises and falls，
flowers always bloom and wither， around heavy traffic is always fleeting， stand
at the time of the tail， we kept after the mist as ignorant of the future.
Too many people always sigh the cruelty of time and the helpless of growing
up。 In fact， growth is really a caterpillar into a butterfly process， always
undergo a metamorphosis of pain， you can better meet the chocolate as unknown
world。 All that let go or no one saw tears in a few years back， you can get
unexpected! The road of the future， whether rugged or smooth， requires you to go
and taste it alone.
Eileen Chang wrote an article about "road"， referring to the way of growth。
This road is a road that everyone must take。 Those who pass by advise the people
who are going this way not to choose the road， because it is so rough and long
that it is refuted： "since you can walk this way， how can I not go out?"。" Thus，
one after another people go through this road full of hardships， perhaps this is
the true meaning of growth。 Knowing that he might fall into it， he obstinately
persisted in his choice.
I think that the child will never grow up Peter Pam， who said he had no
regrets can not grow， we are always sad to miss the past endlessly all say
"dont grow up， never grow up， if you really can not grow up， you really dont
care? Every time there is a time of happiness。 In any case， we will grow up as
time goes by from the palm of the palm.
Growing up is like a mysterious fruit。 Some people resist it hysterically，
and some people cant wait to taste it。 But only when we grow up can we get more
and better world.
篇4：鱼儿的梦想的初中作文
全文共 859 字
+ 加入清单我是一条在河里生存的小生物——鱼儿。听我爷爷的爷爷说，在他的脑海里，这条我们祖祖辈辈生存的家园是很清澈的，清澈得连河边居住的人类都能看得清清楚楚。每次人类到河边来淘米、冼菜，洗衣服。他和他的伙伴们都会把兴奋得凑过去把残米和剩菜叶都吃个精光。到了中午了他们还会浮出水面，吸点新鲜的空气，顺便晒个“日光浴”。到了夏天当调皮的小孩光着屁股来河里洗澡的时候，他们还会轻轻的上去咬他们的脚趾头。逗得小孩们哈哈大笑，他们也很开心。
可我每次听爷爷的爷爷说这番话时，我一点儿也不相信，因为我现在生活的这条河的颜色是浑浊的，一点也不清澈，河面全是垃圾，有塑料袋呀，瓜果皮呀，塑料瓶呀，废纸呀……唉，反正是只要垃圾筒里有的，河面上通通都有。可是这些我还是能忍受，最让我难以忍受的是化工废水，刺鼻的机油，这些有毒的东西让我们身上既有洗不掉的臭味，连体内也含有巨毒。在这样的生存环境里，我很多的伙伴因为无法适应而失去了幼小的生命。
最近，人类也许越来越意识到了水质的重要了，往河里投递垃圾的现象越来越少了。但是因为水质是被污染了，我和我们伙伴们还是觉得胸口气闷，喉咙火辣辣地疼。我只能浮出水面来大口大口地呼吸新鲜的空气。终于有一天当我在水面呼吸空气的时候，一艘船“游”了过来，我怕他们再泄露出机油，就赶快游到离那个船10米之远的地方。可大轮船并没有泄出机油呀，而是多了几个人和奇怪的机器在河面上捞垃圾和污泥。还不时输送一些干净的河水来调换脏臭的河水。我这时才了解到原来国家加大了力度要求垃圾，化工废水等要经过处理之后才可以排放，而且不能浪费水资源，为了子孙后代要环保节水。所以离这船轮船来收集垃圾和污泥。让它们“变废为宝”，重新再次利用。当我听到这个消息后，恨不得插上翅膀飞到各地去向每个生物诉说这个振奋人心的消息。
我抑制不住不自己的思绪了，憧憬着未来的美丽家园。那肯定是爷爷的爷爷嘴里说出来的是一样的，清澈见底的河水，美妙的“日光浴”，清新的空气，还有人类来淘米，洗菜的情景，甘甜可以饮用的水，洗澡的小孩，那太美了！我想那时候做梦都会笑醒的！

pipes. Some are long and wide but some are short and narrow. Then the water
travels through the water pipes to the reservoirs. Then it travels through the
water pipes to the river and to the special factories (we call water plants)

篇9：梦想能够飞翔初中英语作文

+ 加入清单it has been over 100 years since the very first plane, invented by the wright brothers, flew into the sky. the first plane, which was made of wood, had only been able to fly for 12 seconds in the air, but it opened the door of the aviation world.
i wonder how the wright brothers would imagine such a magnificent idea. they must have some kind of dream----human beings like birds, flying freely in space----they attempted various kinds of material to make planes, finally making their dream come true, although only a short 12 seconds for the first flight! we students often have different dreams: to be scientists, engineers, doctors, etc.
like the wright brothers when they were young, we should try our best to experience different things, for example, going out of doors to watch different animals, watching butterflies in the air, or watching fish in the water. with more knowledge in these fields, we can become biologists in the future. generally speaking, we’d better make greater efforts in our studies.
in this way, we can make our dreams come true, not only like the wright brothers in the sky, but also like yang liwei in outer space.
篇10：我有一个梦想英语日记
全文共 1418 字
+ 加入清单My dream is to become a teacher. And I have never changed my mind till today.
Well, when I was still a little girl in a kindergarten, I wished that I could become a teacher. This was mainly because I thought teacher was so powerful that every student had to obey her in-structions. And she could do whatever she wanted. She could drink coffee in the classroom, and go to the office whenever she liked. What′s more, she could decide whether a student would get the little red flower every month, that′s a kind of honour to show whether a student is good or not.
When I entered a primary school, I still have the same dream to become a teacher. For if I were a teacher, I would not have to prepare for any test or any examination, and I would not get smacked by my mother if I didn′t do well. At that time, to be a teacher meant you would have a life without any worry.
Now, I′m a middle school student, but I still treasure the dream to be a teacher. As I am growing up, my reasons have be-come more meaningful. Now I think teachers are really the engineers of human soul. They teach us a lot, not only knowledge but also how to be a good man of the society. Every year in our country thousands of teachers send millions of good students to various parts to work for our country, which helps to make our country stronger and stronger.
My dream is to be a teacher, and I′m sure, with my effort, it will come true!

篇16：以梦想为话题英语作文
全文共 2740 字
+ 加入清单Ambition is the decision one makes and the resolution with which he carries out that decision. It provides us with the required driving force to accomplish any undertakings in our life. Just as Joseph Epstein, a famous American writer put it, “And as we decide and choose, so are our lives formed.” Indeed, once we make up our minds to choose to do something, then our life becomes meaningful and specifically orientated. This notion of life, as far as I observe, is closest to truth and does apply to almost all aspects of life.
First things first, ambition renders us a sense of mission. No matter what decision you make you have to be responsible for your choice. Your choice procures you a sense of orientation, or more specially a sense of mission. And only a strong mission may enable one to accomplish greatness. Caesar of the ancient Roman Empire was urged by his ambition “I came, I saw, I conquered.” And became an unrivaled empire builder in the history of Rome. John Milton, stimulated always by his ambition that aimed at writing some “mighty lines” which England would unwillingly forget, had in due time secured his position as the second Shakespeare in the history of English literature.
In the second place, ambition can bring one’s potentials to the full. Ambition may well serve as a catalyst activating one’s dormant potentials. Without ambition one’s potentials will remain slumbering like a dormant volcano. A case in point is Ms Zhang Haidi, a Chinese Helen Keller. It was her ambition to be a useful person has turned the almost paralyzed Zhang Haidi into a well-accomplished figure whose achievements would dwarf those of some normal people aim at the sun, though, at worst, they may probably land on the moon.
Influential as it is upon us, however, ambition must be channeled in the right direction. If wrongly directed, one’s ambition may bring havoc on him and others. Hitler, whose ambition was to conquer Europe by whattever evil means, finally turned him into a demon. It was this demon that almost cast Europe into an unfathomable abyss of anguish and suffering. Another case is Macbeth whose ambition was to become the king of Scotland. However, his ambition was materialized by the murder of King Duncan. Consequently, unbearable guilt and psychological agony drove him to his tragic doom.
To sum up, ambition can benefit us tremendously if wisely and correctly channeled, otherwise it may ruin others and ourselves. A poet says: life can be bad; life can be good; life can be dirty; life can be sad,; life can even be painful. In my mind’s eye, a person can make his life beautiful, meaningful and rewarding and stand out as a respectable personage if he is motivated by a well-orientated ambition.

篇20：怀念的英语作文初中
全文共 2558 字
+ 加入清单When memory began for me, my grandfather was past sixty-a great tall man
with thick hair becoming gray. He had black eyes and a straight nose which ended
in a slightly flattened tip. Once he explained seriously to me that he got that
flattened tip as a small child when he fell down and stepped on his nose.
The little marks of laughter at the corners of his eyes were the prodnct of
a kindly and humorous nature. The years of work which had bent his shoulders had
never dulled his humour nor his love of a joke.
Everywhere he went, "Gramp" made friends easily. At the end of half an hour
you felt you had known him all your life. I soon learned that he hated to give
orders , but that when he had to, he tried to make his orders sound like
suggestions.
One July morning, as he was leaving to go to the cornfield, he said :
"Edwin, you can pick up the potatoes in the field today if you want to do that.
" Then he drove away with his horses.
The day passed, and I did not have any desire to pick up potatoes. Evening
came and the potatoes were still in the field. Gramp, dusty and tired, led the
horses to get their drink.
"How many bags of potatoes were there?" Gramp inquired. "I dont know.
"
"How many potatoes did you pick up?"
"I didnt pick any. " "Not any! Why not?"
"You said I could pick, them up if I wanted to. You didnt say I had to.
"
In the next few minutes I learned a lesson I would not forget: when Gramp
said I could if I wanted to, he meant that I should want to.
Gram hated cruelty and injustice. The injustices of history, even those of
a thousand years before, angered her as much as the injustices of her own
day.
She also had a deep love of beauty. When she was almost seventy-five, and
had gone to live with one of her daughters, she spent a delightful morning
washing dishes because, as she said, the beautiful patterns on the dishes gave
her pleasure. The bird, the flowers, the clouds-all that was beautiful around
her- pleased her. She was like the father of the French painter, Millet, who
used to gather grass and show it to his son , saying , "See how beautif ul this
is ! "
In a pioneer society it is the harder qualities of mind and character that
are of value. The softer virtues are considered unnecessary. Men and women
struggling daily to earn a living are unable, even for a moment, to forget the
business of preserving their lives. Only unusual people, like my grandparents,
manage to keep the softer qualities in a world of daily struggle.
Such were the two people with whom I spent the months from June to
September in the wonderful days of summer and youth.
