Dear Li Hong,

I haven’t heard from you for quite a long time. How have you been these

days?

During the coming winter vacation, I’m going to Beijing for a tour. As I

have never been to Beijing before, I’d like you to be my guide. I hope you can

show me around the Great Wall, the Summer Palace and some other places of

interest. What’s more, during my visit I hope to stay together with you in your

house so that we can have a good talk about our life and studies. What do you

think of my idea? I would like to know your opinion.

Please give my best regards(问候) to your parents.

Yours sincerely,

Liu Ming

篇1:关于道德的高中英语作文

全文共 1567 字

+ 加入清单

China has long been known as “the land of ceremony and propriety.” Today however people often complain that public morals are no longer what they used to be. A family for example likes a cell of society which also mirrors the general mood of a country. As we know the Chinese have very strong family ties. But with the emergence of a “modern” concept to families people find that problems like high divorce rate and extramarital affairs become more serious than ever before.

Another example: the name of Lei Feng who was always ready to lend a helping hand to others used to be known by almost all Chinese as a model to learn from. But today some people claim that “the spirit of Lei Feng” is outdated. Fashionable ideas say money talks. In the early stage of the market economic development the appearance of some evil phenomena is not surprising. But we should not sit passively by and let it run rampant. Instead active measures should be taken to improve morals and ethics of the public.

Personally the media should play a leading role in this regard. They should spare no effort to praise the good and criticize the evil. They should guide people how to tell the truth goodness and beauty from the fault ugliness and evil.中国素有“礼仪之邦”的今天,然而,人们经常抱怨公共道德也不再是过去的样子了。一个家庭,例如,喜欢一个社会的细胞,这也反映了一个国家的一般情绪。正如我们所知道的,中国人有很强的家庭关系。但随着家庭的“现代”概念的出现,人们发现问题的高离婚率和婚外情变得比以往更为严重。

另一个例子:雷锋的名字总是愿意伸出援助之手给别人,被称为几乎所有的中国人作为一个模型来学习。但今天,有人声称“雷锋精神”已经过时了。时髦的想法说钱谈判。在市场经济发展的初期,一些恶现象的出现并不令人惊讶。但我们不应该被动地坐着,让它横行。相反,应采取积极的措施来改善公众的道德和道德。

就个人而言,媒体应该在这方面发挥主导作用。他们应该不遗余力地赞美善和批判邪恶。他们应该引导人们如何从错误、丑陋和邪恶中讲真话、善和美。

When we are very small, we dream to be the great person in the future, such

as the scientist, the policeman and so on. It is good for the children to own

the big dream, so that they will study hard and fight for their future. But the

fact is that not all the person can become the great person, most people are

doing the ordinary jobs. In my opinion, ordinary is beautiful, too. Though they

are not doing the fine jobs, they find their own place and make a contribution

to the world. Take the cleaner for example. They wake up early and do the

cleaning work. People dare not to do the job because it is so dirty, but the

cleaners decorate the city with their hard work. The cleaners are the ordinary

According to the variety of social background, personal experience and

personal emotion, differernt people have different opinions towards things.

Thus, there is no doubt that generation gap exists everywhere. We always find

that there are big differences between us and the old generation. We always

regard the old are outdated, while they think us are crazy. They can’t bear the

dress we like, the fashion we pursue or even our childish thinking. Instead, we

could put up with their standpat thingking and their “feudal rulers”. Thus, the

generation gap becomes more and more obvious and serious. However, why don’t we

realize that opinions can be changed, while people can’t. So, we can think in an

other way, learn to accept. It is certain that we can narrow the generation gap

to live a more harmonious life.

Last night, I saw the news that a bus driver died of heart disease when he was doing his job, there were many passengers in the car, the driver stopped the car in the sidewalk and then died.

It is so moving, compared to the drivers who drive in high speed, this driver is full responsibility, he considered the passengers’ safe in the first place, he deserves to be highly praised.

In today, people are losing the sense of responsibility, they don’t care many things, which makes them a heartless people. Like when my mother asks me to finish the house work, I have to finish it before I go out to play.

If I give up, in the future, I will take things not serous and be a responsible guy.

If the driver just died without stopping the car, then the passengers would die, what a terrible thing. So we need to be responsible.

昨晚,我看到一则新闻关于一个司机在开车时死于心脏病,车上有很多乘客,司机把车停在人行道以后就死去了。这是多么感动啊,和那些高速开车的司机来说,这个司机充满了责任感,他把乘客的安全放在了第一位上,他值得受到高度表扬。

今天,人们正在丧失责任感,他们对很多东西不在意,这让他们变得无情。

比如当我妈妈叫我完成家务,我必须在出去玩之前完成。如果我放弃了,将来,我会对其他事情无所谓,成为一个不负责任的人。如果司机没有把车停下来就死掉了,车上的乘客都会死,这是多么可怕的事情啊。因此我们要有责任。

Nowadays, pets become so close and friendly to our human-beings that more

of pets, they won’t feel lonely. Nevertheless, I’m not interested in keeping

pets at all. For one thing, keeping pets is bad for environmental protection,

since pets usually make a lot of noise and contaminate the roads. For another,

the virus carried by pets may cause fatal disease. What’s more, sometimes pets

篇10:高中生英语作文写作训练方法

全文共 1545 字

+ 加入清单

中学英语教学大纲中明确指出:“写是书面表达和传递信息的交际能力。培养初步写的能力,是英语教学的目的之一。”在近年的高考中英语写作也占有相当比重。因此,在高中阶段教师应在指导和组织学生进行英语写作上下功夫,在平时教学中应有计划有目的地去训练和提高学生的写作能力。

一、学生能充分认识英语写作的重要性是写作能力提高的必要条件。

英语写作能力的提高需要持之以恒的长期训练。如果学生对写作重要性认识不够,他们就不能积极主动地去配合老师搞好写作训练,甚至产生逆反心理,产生对立情绪,英语写作就会半途而废,达不到预期目的。

在平时教学中,老师要经常性地有意识地对学生进行写作重要性的教育。学生一进入高中就要让他们了解初中和高中英语教学要求的异同。

我给学生找几份中考和高考题,帮助他们了解中考和高考英语试题对基础知识和基本技能要求的相同之处和不同之处,引导他们转变观念,更新和完善学习方法,要让他们了解到英语写作在高考中、实际运用中以及对将来继续学习英语的重要性。

我还联系在过去高考中英语取得优异成绩的毕业生,用书信介绍学好英语的方法,特别是在英语写作方面的成功经验和英语写作对他们当时及后来英语学习的重要性。这些毕业生有很大的感召力,很有说服性,尤其对那些有逆反心理的学生。

二、指导写作应注意的几个问题:

1.教师要有明确合理的教学计划和教学程序,组织系统规范的有序训练。

2.帮助和要求学生养成积极主动地坚持英语写作的良好习惯。

3.坚持循序渐进的训练原则。写作要先易后难,先短后长,先学会运用简单句、并列句,后学会用复合句表达,先写正确句子逐步过渡到围绕一个人、一件事、一个观点去写有中心的文章,由不限定时间到限定时间,由限定时间长到限定时间短,由限定字数少到多……

4.分程度要求。对学生的要求不能一刀切,对学习好的要求要高,对学习差的要求要适当低一些。要避免有些学生轻而易举垂手可得,而有些学生又可望而不可及的情况发生。

5.注意讲评。要经常指出优点,以利模仿,指出缺点,警示避免。

6.鼓励优秀,耐心帮助差生。充分利用板报、专栏进行优秀作文展览,或者也可采用传阅方式进行。但不能放弃或岐视差生,要经常帮助他们树立信心,掌握写作方法和技巧。

7.基础知识和能力并重,听说读和写并举。教师在平时教学中应充分利用一切可以利用的机会启发引导学生提高自己的写作水平。如遇到优秀的句、段或篇提示学生注意欣赏作者的表达法,把它们作为范例,在自己写作中加以模仿和运用。又如遇到英汉表达方法不同之处,提示学生注意英语的正确表达法,切忌出现汉语式的英语。要帮助学生养成正确运用标点符号的好习惯,切忌一点到底的错误方法。

8.要求学生在写作中宁简勿误,不能养成随随便便的习惯,要养成严谨推敲的风气。

三、训练写作的常用方法。

写作训练应考虑循序渐进的原则,采取逐步提高的形式进行。

1.用学过的词、短语或句式,模仿课文中的表达法造句。2.换课文中的人物、时态、语态或体裁等改写课文。3.看图作文。4.填补式作文。5.写课文复述材料或写心得体会。6.将打乱顺序的句子按事件发展的时间顺序或逻辑关系等整理成一篇完整的短文。7.教师给出题目和提纲让学生写作。8.写日记或周记。9.材料作文。教师给出汉语提示让学生用英语表达。

四、注意纠正学生英语作写中容易出现的错误。

学生最初写作时,教师要给予必要的指导,使他们少犯错误。教师还要经常性地例举错误的表达法,提醒学生注意避免。在批阅作文时教师要随时标出学生错误之处,还要随时记录学生所犯错误,把学生的错误加以归类总结,把普遍性的错误提出来,让学生集体改错,使他们的语言表达尽可能地规范正确。

总之,学生英语写作能力在老师有计划的组织和耐心帮助、正确引导下,在学生长期积极密切的配合下是能够得以逐步提高的。

Which is better, shopping online or traditional shopping? Different people have different attitudes towards it. Some people think that online shopping is very convenient, for it can save them a lot of time and energy. It’s especially helpful for those who are always busy with their work. Besides, through the internet, they can get more information about the commodities they want to buy and buy a lot of things that cannot be bought in local places.

网上购物还是传统购物,那种方式更好呢?每个人对这事的看法都不一样。有些人认为网购十分方便,因为这种方式可以节省许多的时间和精力。特别是对那些工作十分繁忙的人来说,网购帮了大忙。此外,通过网络他们可以知道关于他们想购买的产品的信息,还能卖到当地没有卖的商品。

Nevertheless, I’m not keen on online shopping at all, since most commodities which are bought online are of poor quality. Once we are cheated, we may find it difficult to make a complaint. Thus we should take more cautions when shopping online.

尽管如此,我还是不太热衷于网购,因为大多数我们网购而来的产品的质量劣质。一旦我们上当受骗,我们会发现我们无处投诉。因此我们网购时要非常的谨慎。

In my eyes, I prefer traditional shopping, because I can choose what I really need. Also, I can know the quality of every commodity more clearly. Even if there’s something wrong with the commodities, I can still ask the sellers to compensate for my loss.

在我看来,我更喜欢普通的购物方式,因为我只需要选购我所需要的,而且我还能很清楚的知道商品的质量如何。假如我买的东西出现问题,我还能让卖家赔偿我的损失。

poisonous gas sent by the nearby factories is also one of the main causes of

precious culture. For example, paper cutting, one of the excellent arts that is

inherited by our ancestors. Many foreign media speak highly of this great

handicraft and they are astonished by the wisdom of Chinese people. I have seen

this art when I stay in my hometown. Only few old people can do it. They just

take it for killing time. Paper cutting is like the old fashion and is forgotten

by the young generation. The media should report more positive information about

导语:每个人都有自己的妈妈,你喜欢你的妈妈吗?下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语作文,欢迎阅读与借鉴,谢谢!

My mother has no idea that her ninetieth birthday is coming up. She has no notion of the time of day, the day of the week. the season of the year, the year of the century. No notion of the approaching millennium. And no idea any longer, who I am. Her forgetting of me happened just a few months ago, after I had been traveling for more than a month and hadnt been to see her. When I came back, she asked me if I were her niece, l said no, I was her daughter. "Does that mean I had you?" she asked. 1 said yes. "Where was I when l had you?" she asked me. I told her she was in a hospital in Far Rockaway. New York. "So much has happened to me in my life." she said "You cant expect me to remember everything."

My mother was once a beautiful woman, but all her teeth are gone now. Toothless. No woman can be considered beautiful. Whenever I visit her in the nursing home, she is sitting at the table in the common dining room, her head in her hands, rocking. Medication has eased her anxiety, but nothing moves her from her stupor except occasional moments of fear, too deep for medication. This is a room that has no windows, that lets in no light, in which an overlarge TV is constantly blaring, sending images that no one looks at where the floors are beige tiles, the walls cream colored at the bottom, papered halfway up with a pattern of nearly invisible grayish leaves. Many of the residents sit staring, slack-jawed, open mouthed. I find it impossible to imagine what they might be looking at.

When I walk into the dining room on the day of my mothers birthday, I see that she has already been served lunch. The staff has forgotten to hold it back. Though I told them a week ago that I would be providing lunch. She hasn’t touched anything on her tray except a piece of carrot cake, which she holds in her hands. The icing is smeared on her hands and face. I dont want my friends to see her smeared with icing, so I wet a paper towel and wipe her. This fills me with a terrible tenderness, recalling, as it does. a gesture I have performed for my children. As I wipe my mothers face, I see that her skin is still beautiful I hold her chin in my hand and kiss her forehead. I tell her its her birthday, that shes ninety years old. "How did that happen?" she asks. "I cant understand how that could happen."

l have brought her a bouquet of crimson, yellow, and salmon-pink snapdragons. She likes the flowers very much. She likes the name. "Snapdragons. It seems like an animal thats going to bite inc. But its not an animal, its a plant. Thats a funny thing,"

I have bought food that I hope will please my mother, and that will be easy for her to eat: orzo salad with little pieces of crayfish cut into it, potato salad, small chunks of marinated tomatoes. I have bought paper plates with a rust-colored background, upon which are painted yellow and gold flowers and blue leaves.

My friends Nola and Gary come for my mothers birthday. When we are about to leave, I tell my mother that Im going on vacation, mat I wont see her for three weeks, that 1 am going to the sea. "How will I stand that, how will I stand thats she says, but I know that a minute after I’m gone shell forget I was there.
