Every one faces the problem of choosing an occupation after graduation from college or university, which plays a vital role in his life. An appropriate occupation makes a man work with zest and vigor, as well as contribute to his country.

To make a wise choice, two important things should be taken into consideration. One is the interest, the other, the demands of people and society. Only if the two aspects are connected, can a man show his talent and ability to the best advantage. If the two conflict, the former should be under the latter, for the peoples interests are more important than the individuals.

In regard to my choice in the future, I am fond of learning foreign languages; what is more, with the implementation of the Open-Door Policy, exchange between home and abroad in economy and culture has been growing significantly, thus Im determined to be a qualified interpreter.

On March 8th, 1975, the United Nation started to celebrate the International Women’s Day. In China, the women’s day also called “March 8th”day. Why we celebrate women’s day? There is a long story.

On March 8th, 1909, the Women’s Union of Chicago demonstrated against the inequality between men and women. They demanded that they should have the same payments, the same working hours as men had, and they should have the rights to vote. They even put forward a slogan: Bread and Rose, which stood for equal payment and a better living standard. This demonstrated had caused international attention to the women’s rights. A year later, a critical meeting was held in Demark, in order to promote the women’s liberation and equal rights, the council members decided to establish the Women’s Day on March 8th. Then March 8th, 1911 just became the first Women’s day.

In our country, during the women’s day, the women usually have a day-off holiday. The communities or companies will organize the recreational activities such as a spring outing, a nice dinner and some extra welfare. On this special day, the women can really realize that a woman’s value is not only giving birth to a child, doing endless housework, but also find her own status in the modern society. That is she can make a different. She can do everything that a man can do. When you look around, you will find that more and more women are acting as scientists, doctors, lawyers, even leaders. Just try to remember, women rule half of this world. The life could quite different without their wisdom and beauty.

Happy International Women’s Day!

篇5:厦门小吃作文

全文共 1993 字

+ 加入清单

小吃厦门食俗的一个重要内容。这不仅由于厦门小吃体现了厦门人的想象力和创造性。其品种的丰富多样,全国罕见;也不仅由于厦门小吃的风味独特,令人难忘;更因为对厦门人来说,小吃既可是点心,亦能作正餐,甚至可以上宴席待客。没有一个厦门人不吃小吃,它已经深深溶于厦门人饮食习俗之中,成为一种偏好,一种习惯,一种民风。对于厦门人来说,那深夜街巷里叫的"烧肉粽",那马路边骑楼下点着"臭十"(乙炔)灯的煎豆子,便是刻骨铭心的故乡印象。可以说,不了解厦门的小吃,就不仅无法了解厦门的食俗,也无法了解厦门人。

据厦门民俗学会近年的调查,目前厦门的小吃大约有200多种,制作售卖小吃的摊点、酒楼、餐厅仅在岛内就有2600多家,许多黄昏之后才出现的流动摊贩尚不计算在内。这么庞大的数目,只能选择其中最具代表性的小吃,最负盛名的摊点、酒楼简略介绍了。

最有名和最普遍的厦门小吃有;土笋冻、烧肉粽、五香、芋包、韭菜盒、芋枣、章鱼、油葱?、卤豆千、卤鸭、蚝仔粥、面线糊、炸枣、糖葱饼、薄饼、沙茶面、鱼丸、蚝仔煎、麻籽、贡鱿鱼、"翻煎"豆干、加滋螺、花螺、芋?炸、蚝仔炸、马蹄酥、炒?条、面茶、虾面、烧豆花、花生汤、炒面线、炒米粉、豆包仔?等等。

土笋冻是用生长于海边滩涂的一种名叫"土蚯"的无脊椎软体小动物加工制作的,晶莹剔透,柔韧嫩脆,鲜甜爽口,尤其是沾上各种佐料,更别具风味。据说,制作上笋冻的"黑土蚯",全国只有厦门、海沧、安海一带沿海滩涂才有,而以厦门百谷港出产的品质最佳。可惜围海造地,芫当已不再成港,现在的土笋冻只有靠高浦、海沧、安海等地提供原料了。

五香也是极为可口的美味。它用一种专门的豆皮,裹上剁碎的精肉、荸荠、葱等,包成如春饼的一条条,再放下油锅炸成焦黄,切成几段,蘸佐料进食,香、酥、脆、鲜,妙不可言。

蚝仔煎则是选黑耳白肚(黑白对比越强烈,说明越新鲜)的"珠蚝",拌和青蒜、韭菜、地瓜粉,摊入油锅,两面煎透。讲究一点,还要在入锅后,再摊上搅散的蛋,一道煎熟。起锅后,撒点胡椒,放数叶芫荽,吃时再蘸上芥辣、辣酱、香酷,简直连舌头都会一起吞下去。

虾面的主料是虾和面,然而妙处却不在虾,也不在面,而在汤。先把虾去壳水熟,捞起虾仁,再用这汤熬虾壳,熬了第一遍后,把虾壳过滤出来,捣碎,掺上冰糖再熬。然后和上熬过的猪骨头汤,撒上葱花、蒜末,方才成为虾面汤头。食时,将面搅熟。捞置碗中,放上几只承熟的虾仁和几片猪肉,加上一小匙葱头油及些许蒜泥,再舀进熬好的虾汤,撒上胡椒,味道之鲜美,令人难忘。

糖葱饼,过去有许多小贩挑着担沿街走巷叫卖,现在只有在"好清香"酒家才吃得到了。它是用特制的约五六厘米直径的小春饼皮,包上一小段专门炼制的油葱糖和酸萝卜、葱、蒜、辣酱、莽辣。入口后,甜、酸、辛、辣、咸五味俱全,食欲大振。

沙茶面可算是当今厦门最普遍的小吃了,无论闹市或深巷,几乎无处不有。沙茶面的妙处,也是在汤头。好的沙茶面汤,是用猪的大骨汤加上沙茶辣酱、花生酱等熬成的,又鲜又辣,别具口味。

芋泥、芋枣、芋包,则是把槟榔芋头蒸熟,捣成泥,然后包肉、笋等,用蒸笼蒸过,即成芋包。什么也不包,只加糖,搓成一粒粒如大枣,再油炸,即成芋枣。若是加糖,油炒,则成芋泥。芋泥起锅后,面上油多,很快就不冒烟,但内里却是十分烫,不知底细,就要吃亏。也有咸芋泥,如南普陀素菜的"香泥藏珍",即把苹泥包上各种菜,整碟或整碗蒸熟,边上再撒些油炸过的酥脆可口的青菜叶丝,吃起来十分可口。

蚝仔粥或蟹粥的功夫,在于米要"粒粒清",不能煮烂。主要喝稀饭汤。

传统中,一种小吃总是和最受欢迎的某一摊点的店名或主人名字连在一起,如黄则和的花生汤,"好清香"的烧肉棕,"碰记"和"真好味"的鱼丸场,"章记"的虾面,关隘内治姐的美人薄饼,思明北路程阿树的蚝仔煎,二舍庙陈汉益的炸五香,泰山口吴唇的韭菜盒,打锡箔巷叶栋梁和笛仔仙陈金水的土笋冻,福茂街口何金钗的沙茶面,海关边王奕然的油葱?,思明北路猫车的贡鱿鱼,赖厝埕蔡淑贞的芋包,十六崎脚陈玲的麻嵫等等。

岁月流逝,数十年前的这些老字号能留存至今的已经不多。但后起之秀,层出不穷。尤其是80年代以来,八仙过海,各显其能,把小吃又推上了一个新的高潮。

一种潮流是将大众化的小吃"宴席化",以"好清香"酒楼为代表。像"九龙盘",借成套餐具为媒介,将九种小吃组成一道风味梅花拼盘,构思相当奇巧。同时将芋包、肉粽、油葱?、夹饼等小吃小型化精致化,使人们在小吃宴席上,一次可以品尝多种小吃。小吃宴,十二道菜,道道都是厦门街头巷尾可见的风味小吃,但又较那些小摊点工料精致,风味更佳。

另一潮流则是将小吃"家常化"。像芋枣、卤鸭、五香、卤豆干、咸?等等,各菜市场都有许多摊点,专卖给顾客带回家做家常饭菜。

无论是小吃的"宴席化"或"家常化",都表明厦门人对小吃的喜爱是何等深切。相信厦门的小吃还会再发展,发展得更丰富多彩,更令人难忘。

Dear Mr. Wang,

Thank you for taking the time to write your wonderful letter in support of

MCEA (Maywood Chinese Education Association). Your letter clearly articulates

all the major reasons children in Maywood will benefit from studying the Chinese

language as part of their elementary school education. It provides invaluable

support that will help making bilingual Chinese education a reality in Maywood

public schools.

Although MCEA would like to see Palo Alto public schools implement the

first bilingual Chinese kindergarten class in September of 2006, we have learned

that the school district must take the time to understand how a new program will

affect existing educational offerings, and to validate community interest.

Nevertheless, MCEA, with more than 70 members, will continue to actively promote

bilingual Chinese education in the Palo Alto public schools and will keep you

apprised of the progress we make.

Thanks again for sending a letter in support of MCEA. We will continue to

do all we can to realize this program both for families of Chinese descent and

those with a general interest in participating in the growing economic power of

China.

Yours sincerely,

George Chen

篇8:美丽的厦门作文600字

我总觉得,九月的厦门是很美的。

在别的地方,九月的代名词或许是凄凉萧瑟,可九月在厦门跟本没有什么凄凉什么满地落叶,而恰恰相反,九月的厦门有鸟有树有花有生机……

九月带走暑气,人们得以从空调房中解放出来,迎着丝丝柔风到户外去,舒活舒活筋骨,抖擞抖擞精神。观凤凰花第二次开放,红得像火,美不胜收。看筼筜湖碧绿的湖水,水中时不时几只鱼儿欢腾,湖水便闪着涟漪;偶一抬头,数只白鹭扇动白翼腾飞,宛若天使,安静地盘旋跃起,奏出无声的初秋颂歌。九月,钓鱼的人似乎多了,没有了溽暑蒸人,他们全到了那片白鹭聚集的无遮盖的空地,一坐就是几个小时。说是钓鱼,可他们眼不望钩,一副“闲来垂钓碧溪上”的神态,或许是“醉翁之意不在酒”,他们的本意只是观赏湖景林景鹭景呢?

悠闲观景罢,九月的人们忙碌起来了。九月开学季,同学们高了一年级,面对更严峻的挑战,大家忙着军训忙着预习忙着上课忙着考试忙着做更好地自己;老师们也忙碌起来了,忙着教导忙着鼓励忙着安慰忙着给学生们以最温暖的关心忙着做学生最可爱的朋友最优秀的榜样……九月是忙碌的,无比充实,累并快乐着,人们努力地向梦想前进,一步一步……

九月其实还有一个身份,那就是农历八月,十五的中秋在这个月里拉开帷幕,这个九月,是热闹欢腾的九月。对厦门人来说,中秋节意义非凡。郑成功时的博饼延至今天,骰子的咣当声,朋友的寒暄声,状元的欢呼声,造就了九月无法缺失的一部分。

九月到厦门,带来了悠闲、忙碌和热闹,如此特别,又如此平凡……

九月的厦门是最美的……

白白的一辆列车缓缓向我们开来,我和其他十一个人陆续跳上了列车,乘了五小时的动车以后,我们就到了所谓岛屿的地方———厦门

最美丽的大学

第一天,我们来到了素有全国最美丽大学之称的厦门大学。一走进去,我就感觉来到了仙境:硕大无比的校门,苍翠挺拔的榕树,再加上许许多多的游客,真是美不胜收。再往里走点儿,往左看,他是厦门大学的创使人———陈嘉庚先生。看!他左手拿着帽子,右手柱着拐杖,全神贯注地看着前方,好像若有所思,可真是太传神了。再往前走一段路程,就到了一个长方形的喷水当局,中门矗立着好像两只手捧着一本书的雕像,清澈的泉水从雕像的左右两头徐徐流出,泉水接触到水平面,溅起雪白的小水花,哇!真是风景如画呀!这就是真正的厦门。

小岛上的小吃

第三天,我们乘着轮渡,来到了厦门最著名的旅游景点———鼓浪屿。其中岛上最让我印象深刻的是小吃。着先我来介绍“八婆婆烧仙草”这种冷饮。它共有两种口味:奶茶、蜂蜜。另加几种配料,有烧成块状的仙草、有黑乎乎的龟苓膏、有又大又红的红豆、还有像胖娃娃似的花生,你听了,一定也想吃吧!现在我来介绍第二样小吃;鱼丸。远看鱼丸,就好像白色的含苞欲放的花朵。近看,用手摸摸,会感觉软软的,热腾腾的。吃一口,感觉又软又香,这时,鱼丸里的汁会流出来,吃一口在嘴上,美一片在心里。看到这,你肯定垂涎三尺了吧!这就是真正的厦门。

嗯——,现在厦门旅游回来啦,告诉你厦门还有很多景点呢!希望你有机会去好好细细欣赏。

8月21日下午,我与妈妈,还有表哥,一起乘飞机前往厦门。由于飞机晚点,到达目的地快9点了。夜晚的厦门非常美丽,华灯高照,流光溢彩。我们订的宾馆在海边,只听那阵阵的波涛拍打着海岸,很有节奏。海风吹拂过来,很是舒服。还没参观游览,我已经喜欢上了这里。

第二天我们去了沙滩,沙子金黄细软,脚踩在上面,是多么的舒痒。远眺大海,只见远处有座岛屿,问妈妈才知道那是荆门岛。啊!台湾的荆门岛离我们好近呀,看上去,你是多么的孤单,隐隐约约的,我想那里也与这里一样美丽,但不知你什么时候才能回到祖国母亲的怀抱?

第三天我们去了胡里山炮台,还去了鼓浪屿。胡里山炮台让我印象最深。刚进炮台,就看见很多小炮,有红缨炮等……,这些炮都是“小小小不点”,“超级大家伙”还在后头呢。往下走,就是一条长长的画廊,展示了许多抗战时用大炮打击敌人的场景,走过画廊,来到一个高高的洞口,往里张望,“哇———”我大叫起来,原来里面放的世界炮王———克虏伯大钢炮,那威风凛凛的架势,真让人觉得是站在高高山岗上的大猛虎,我发现旁边还有一架小车,上面放着一颗四十公分长的炮弹,我想,这是大钢炮的“小秘书”吧!我敢肯定,在那纷飞的战火年代,这件宝贝发挥了巨大的作用,杀伤了许多敌人。

由于时间紧赶飞机,我们晚上9点左右到达了杭州。厦门之旅,让我了解厦门,我爱厦门。

Dear Santa Claus,

Hello, as time goes by, the sun and the moon fly so fast, and it will be

Christmas soon, you have to give gifts to obedient and very good children. It

reminds me of this time last year. Its long before Christmas and Im thinking

about what I want for Christmas. A few days before Christmas, I put my wish card

in front of my bed early, hoping Santa Claus can see it and help me realize it.

You may be asking, "Why put up the wish card so early? Why not wait until

Christmas Eve?" My answer is: That is because I am afraid you sent the wrong

gift, give you enough time to prepare. On Christmas Eve, I went to bed early,

thinking that I would wake up and open my eyes to see the gift you gave me. But

when I opened my eyes in the morning, I found no present at the end of my bed,

nor on my desk. I was worried because I thought you had hidden the present for

some joke with me. I searched my home carefully, but still there was no present.

I waited another day with great anticipation, but you and your gift still did

not appear. My mother told me that because they do not care for the environment,

Shijiazhuang is seriously polluted, haze weather is bad, you lost your way, so

you can not send Christmas gifts to the children on time. Is that right? Three

days later, I finally received your gift, which was accompanied by a letter of

apology. In the letter, you explained that due to the weather, you delayed the

delivery of the gift. At the same time, you also hoped that we could take good

care of the environment and be guardians of the environment.

Dear Santa Claus, another year has passed, in this year, my friends and I,

protect the environment, save water, try to be a good environmental small guard,

at the same time we also mobilize our father, mother, uncle, aunt and we take

action together, less drive a day a week, green travel. After our joint efforts,

shijiazhuang sky blue, water green, I believe this time you will be able to send

gifts to the children on time!

Looking forward to your friend: Li Zijian

亲爱的圣诞老人

您好,时光流逝,日月如梭,马上又要到圣诞节了,您又要给听话又很乖的小朋友派送礼物了。说到这就又想起去年的这个时候了,距圣诞节还好久我就开始想圣诞节自己要的礼物。圣诞节前几天,我早早的把自己的愿望卡挂在自己床前,希望圣诞老人能早点看到并帮我实现。您也许会问:“为什么这么早就把愿望卡挂上去呢?为什么不等到平安呢?”我的回答是:那是因为我怕您送错了礼物,给您充足的时间来准备。平安夜的晚上,我早早的就上床睡觉了,想着一觉醒来睁开眼就能看到您送我的礼物。可是,当我早上睁开眼睛,发现我床头没有礼物,我的写字台上也没有礼物,我着急了,以为您和我开玩笑把礼物藏起来了,索性把家里认真得找了个遍,还是没有。我怀着期待的心情又等了一天,您和您的礼物仍旧没有出现。妈妈告诉我,是因为他们不爱护环境,石家庄污染严重,雾霾天气恶劣,您迷路了,所以不能准时把圣诞礼物送到小朋友手中。是这样吗?三天后,我终于收到您的礼物,伴随礼物而来的还有您一封致歉,信中你说明了因为天气原因,致使你延误了礼物的派送的时间,同时您也希望我们能够爱护环境,做环境小卫士。

亲爱的圣诞老人,又一年过去了,在这一年里我和我的小伙伴们,保护环境,节约用水,努力当好环境小卫士,同时我们还动员我们的爸爸、妈妈、叔叔、阿姨和我们一起行动起来,每周少开一天车,绿色出行。经过我们大家的共同努力,石家庄的天蓝了,水绿了,相信这次您一定能够准时将礼物送到小朋友手中啦!

盼着您的朋友:李子健

篇14:愚人节英文优秀作文

全文共 2400 字

+ 加入清单

However, communications being what they were in the days when news traveled by foot, many people did not receive the news for several years. Others, the more obstinate crowd, refused to accept the new calendar and continued to celebrate the new year on April 1. These backward folk were labeled as "fools" by the general populace. They were subject to some ridicule, and were often sent on "fools errands" or were made the butt of other practical jokes.

This harassment evolved, over time, into a tradition of prank-playing on the first day of April. The tradition eventually spread to England and Scotland in the eighteenth century. It was later introduced to the American colonies of both the English and French. April Fools Day thus developed into an international fun fest, so to speak, with different nationalities specializing in their own brand of humor at the expense of their friends and families.

In Scotland, for example, April Fools Day is actually celebrated for two days. The second day is devoted to pranks involving the posterior region of the body. It is called Taily Day. The origin of the "kick me" sign can be traced to this observance.

Mexicos counterpart of April Fools Day is actually observed on December 28. Originally, the day was a sad remembrance of the slaughter of the innocent children by King Herod. It eventually evolved into a lighter commemoration involving pranks and trickery.

Pranks performed on April Fools Day range from the simple, (such as saying, "Your shoes untied, or I accidentally stepped on your glasses!), to the elaborate. Setting a roommates alarm clock back an hour is a common gag. Whatever the prank, the trickster usually ends it by yelling to his victim, "April Fool!"

Practical jokes are a common practice on April Fools Day. Sometimes, elaborate practical jokes are played on friends or relatives that last the entire day. The news media even gets involved. For instance, a British short film once shown on April Fools Day was a fairly detailed documentary about "spaghetti farmers" and how they harvest their crop from the spaghetti trees.

April Fools Day is a "for-fun-only" observance. Nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take their "significant other" out to eat in a fancy restaurant. Nobody gets off work or school. Its simply a fun little holiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever vigilant, for he may be the next April Fool!

When he gradually away from the island, looking back, is how complex feelings, perhaps all emotions can not be said, only in the heart of their own exclamation “ really can not believe! ”

The vast sea, a boat, a few nights of rain, is still in the sea, the sea ruthless friend Weixin away, chuck aware he will like this around like whale to stay the sea, but whale ah, here is your paradise of happiness, it is my grave!

The cargo ship arrived, and the cargo ship came in early, not late. “ Im not going to talk about the movie here; the plot must be arranged like this, ”. It seems not to chuck life. If he dies, you and I and all people will not be reconciled. “ Kylie — — ” only the most sincere hope that chuck survived Kylie let chuck in a long call to see the ship, “ Kylie — — ”

Chucks back, almost all of my friends than he is to be happy, after the disaster, chuck has no daxitaibei, let joy to my friends. If it turns out that Charlie has changed a lot, one of them is to understand how important it is to support and encourage friends. On the plane, he said to Stan, "“ when Marie died, I wasnt there. Im sorry. I should be there for you, &rdquo.";.

After dinner, chuck face a big table meal, when he saw the crabs, this very common dish, he has become a life-saving food, now think about it, really love a tired! The process lighter, lighter senior human wisdom invention, do not love, no matter how beautiful also, very low but I invented drilling wood fire, how do you appear in the table, rather than on the island!

Kylie, Kylies beloved, and the most difficult years to accompany her through his heart. “ I dont know what to say to her. What should I say?. &rdquo is going to see Kylie; Chuck! After she first thought lost chuck, was married to be at a loss what to do, chuck saw dental dentist Lucheri. Now, suddenly she appeared, and she was at a loss again. In the rainy night, Richard drove to Kylie. “ one thing I want to know ” chuck say this Kylie heart knew he wanted to know what — — how do you marry the dentist Lucheri! But they all understand this reason, on the island of chuck had already foreseen such a result, if not Lucheri, then would be someone else. But Chuck is clever, the director is also clever, chuck asked: “ the Tennessee football team in Nashville now? ” “ Oh, my days ” Kylie was so relieved, knew each other sadness is not necessary to open it so clear. I quite agree with the directors arrangement.

太阳每天在升起,潮起潮又落。察克用石头在墙上标记下在岛上度过的日期,椰子水已没有了任何味道,第一口生吃螃蟹应该是天下最美的佳肴,而后来也没有任何味道了。“我发明了火!”当察克兴奋的喊出这句话的时候,我真正的相信这世界的“火”确实是察克发明的。这要比爱迪生发明电灯更加让人振奋,还有比这更有意义的发明吗?

人可以忍受身体的伤痛,可以忍受饥饿,可以忍受寒冷,可是人要怎样才能忍受长期的绝对的孤独呢?还好有怀表里的凯莉,还好有排球变的维信,还好有跟着飘来的邮件。如果说在一个人绝望的时候他最需要什么,不是他对明天还有多大的理想,而是今天是否有朋友在鼓励。这里借一位网友的话:“凯莉的怀表和相片让察克感受到爱情;朋友维信让察克感受到友情;未打开的翅膀邮件让察克感受到责任。”尽管他已猜到凯莉肯定要另嫁他人,朋友维信只不过是他跟自己说话、鼓励自己的一只排球,那份邮件几乎没有继续送到的可能,但对于现在的察克,它们的存在已经够了,已经可以让他感受到爱情,亲情和责任了,已经可以让他继续有勇气生存下去并怀有一丝希冀了。他是多么珍惜这些东西,一次冲动察克把维信扔了出去,他又那样害怕的去找回来“维信,对不起,我再也不丢下你了”。

大海终于给察克送来一面帆——一块破铁皮。这已经弥足珍贵了,他无法再期待上帝会给他带来什么更好的赏赐。察克用尽小岛所有可以取之为绳的东西,做好一个对他来说如同诺亚方舟一样重要的帆船。带上几个椰子,和朋友维信一起,离开这片不敢再想起的独自生存了四年的荒岛,开始寻求重生之航。当他渐渐远离小岛,回头再望时,是怀有怎样复杂的心情,或许万般情绪不能言表,只会在心里对自己感叹“真不敢相信!”

茫茫大海,一叶孤舟,几夜风雨,依然是茫茫大海,海浪无情的把朋友维信带走了,察克意识道他将会像这身边的鲸鱼一样永留大海,可是鲸鱼啊,这里是你快乐的天堂,却是我的坟墓!

货船来了,货船在不早不晚的时候,在察克已经释然的时候终于来了。“在这里我不讨论电影故事情节必须如此安排”。看来察克的生命还不到归期。如若他死了,你,还有我和所有人都不会甘心的。“凯莉——”唯一的最真切的令察克怀有希望活下来的凯莉让察克在看到货船时发出久别的呼唤,“凯莉——”

察克的回来,几乎所有的朋友都比他自己要开心,是的,经过此次大难后,察克不再有大喜大悲,让欢喜留给朋友们。如果说这次经历让查理改变了很多,那么其中之一就是更明白对朋友的支持和鼓励多么重要。在飞机上他对史丹说:“玛丽去世时,我不在,对不起,我应该在你身边给你支持”。

饭后,察克面对一大桌的美餐,当他看到大闸蟹的时候,这个非常普遍的一道菜,曾经成为他救命的食物,现在想想,真是又爱有厌!那个工艺打火机,人类智慧发明的高级打火机,一点都不可爱,再怎么漂亮,也极抵不过我所发明的钻木之火,你怎么就只出现在这个餐桌上,而不是那个小岛上呢!

凯莉,察克所深爱的并且在他心底陪她走过最艰难岁月的凯莉。“我不知道该对她说些什么,我该说些什么呢。”查克快要见到凯莉了!而她先是以为失去了察克,不知所措以后,嫁给了曾为察克看过牙病的牙医卢杰里。现在察克突然出现了,她又不知所措了!还是那句话,终究要面对。雨夜察克驱车赶到凯莉那儿。“有件事情我很想知道”察克说出这句话时凯莉心里早就明白他想知道什么——你怎么嫁给了牙医卢杰里!可是这个原因他们都明白,在岛上察克就已经预见到了这样的结果,如果不是卢杰里,便会是另外的人。但察克是聪明的,导演也是聪明的,察克的问的是:“田纳西的足球队现在在纳什维尔?”“哦,我的天”凯莉如此松了一口气,彼此心知肚明的悲情没有必要再那么明朗的翻开来说。我很赞成导演这么安排。

篇17:厦门鼓浪屿

你去过美丽的鼓浪屿吗?今年暑假,媽媽带我游玩了那个美丽的地方。鼓浪屿位于厦门市西南角,与厦门市隔海相望,那里景色宜人,四季如春。导游说,民族英雄郑成功曾经屯兵于此,更使得鼓浪屿名声远扬了。

鼓浪屿素有“万国建筑博览”之称。的确,我看到了各式各样的建筑风格的建筑,有罗马式的圆柱,有哥特式的尖顶,还有伊斯兰的圆顶,让人目不暇接。因为战争后许多國家在这里建了领事馆,所以才有这么多西式的房子。虽然这些房子已经很旧了,但是还是很漂亮。

鼓浪屿还有“钢琴之岛”的美称,因为岛上出了很多音乐人才。于是我们去了珍贵的钢琴博物馆,那里有没有脚踏板的钢琴,有黑白键相反的钢琴,还有宽4米高2米的钢琴。这些钢琴都有上百年的历史了呢!看上去就像古董一样,那些精美的花纹,那些高贵的颜色,都是我从来没看到过的。

鼓浪屿的风光更宜人,吸引了五湖四海的游客。蓝天、碧海、沙滩、新鲜的空气、哗啦啦的波浪声、凉爽的海风,真是让人陶醉。菽庄花園就是美景之一,它依海而建,藏海于園,小桥、流水、亭子……我想,这个花園的主人真厉害,能把大海变成私人财产,鼓浪屿上的居民真幸福,能天天看到海!

鼓浪屿还有很多让人流连忘返的名胜古迹,如四十四桥、十二洞天……建议大家也去玩玩哦!

篇18:厦门鼓浪屿

全文共 823 字

鼓浪屿是镶嵌在南海上的一颗明珠,素有“海上花园”之美誉。我在国庆节也去了这个漂亮的地方。

为什么要叫它鼓浪屿呢?原来,是由一块座落在菽庄花园的四十四桥旁的一块名叫鼓浪石的势头而得名,从远处听,可以听到海浪有节奏地拍打着岩石。鼓浪屿上有许多好去处,比方说,日光岩啦,菽庄花园等等。

我们一上鼓浪屿,就向着“不登日光岩,枉费厦门行”的日光岩。走近一看,但绝倒日光岩非常雄伟,虽然它才高92。7米,但我仍然感到它很高。在爬的过程中,我抬头望了望上方的山顶,觉得它很悬,又看了看那陡峭的山坡,一阶阶的石梯,又使我重新鼓起了勇气,一阶一阶往上爬。眼看就要到了峰顶,可那陡峭的石阶左一弯,右一曲,似乎在爬三、四百米的山。有人喊:“加油啊!小伙子!马上到顶了!”终于到峰顶了,我极目远眺,海滩上人潮如织,有许多欧式建筑,再远眺,金门岛在远处凝视着我们,还有一句:“三民主义,统一中国”的标语;在厦门岛,和金门岛遥遥相对的一处,也有一句“一国两制,统一中国”的标语。我们在山顶张拍了几张相,就慢慢下了山。

我们沿着沙滩,到了里面有钢琴博物馆的菽庄花园。我先看到了十二洞天,里面有雕成十二生肖的石雕,如果你能载里面用最快的速度找到十二生肖的所有动物,那就请你往上走。沿着山坡上的小路一直往前走,久道了钢琴博物馆,里面有从最早生产的钢琴到现代的钢琴。我最喜欢的就是自动式钢琴了,它时因为以前的人之忧贵族才能买到钢琴,它起到装饰作用,但有的人不会弹钢琴,脚踩着底下的两个踏板,能演奏出美妙的乐曲。出了钢琴博物馆,我们就前往四十四桥,可能是因为这座桥友四十四个桥墩吧。走完了四十四桥,我们看到了一块大石头,这块石头就是鼓浪石,现在正在涨潮,浪不断地敲击着那块石头,很像在击鼓。

皓月园是一个为了纪念郑成功的主题公园。我们爬上郑成功雕塑,它高15。7米,重1617吨,是我国目前最雄伟的雕塑。我们登上郑成功雕塑,在近处仰望它,仿佛它也在望着我们。

鼓浪屿风景名胜区,是厦门人的骄傲。

篇20:厦门游记作文800字

全文共 924 字

坐了六个小时的动车,我们终于来到了这个我盼望已久的美丽城市——厦门。走出动车,一阵炎热的风迎面吹来,厦门可真热啊!

我们住的宾馆外面是繁华的街道,街道两旁都是小吃,这里就是著名的曾厝垵,有点像宁波的南塘老街。我们一路走,笑声、音乐声和吆喝声充满着整条街道,热闹非凡。

第二天,我们乘上了观光巴士,迎面吹来一阵阵凉爽的风,让人感到惬意极了。我把头探出车窗,眼前展现出一幅美丽的自然画卷:翡翠般的山峦,辽阔无垠的大海,一棵棵高大挺拔的椰树站在沙滩旁,守护着这片大海。

巴士带我们来到了乘坐帆船的地方——五通码头,我的心情既激动又兴奋,心想:从来没乘坐帆船的我,在船上会是怎样的感觉呢?我迫不及待地穿上救生衣,船慢慢开动起来。太阳光照射在海面上,反射出一道道金光,帆船一会儿向左倾斜,一会儿向右倾斜,我紧紧抓住帆船桅杆,真是既紧张又刺激。溅起的海水把我的裤子都打湿了,冰冰凉凉的,舒服极了。

第三天,我们来到了著名的厦门大学。厦门大学的宿舍楼极具闽南特色,看起来都很特别。宿舍楼的对面是一望无际的大海,隐隐约约可以听见大海“哗哗”的声音。从大门进去的左边是一条长长的走廊,走廊一旁是一间间小小的纪念馆,纪念馆里写着厦门大学的校史。

参观完纪念馆,继续前行,就来到了厦门大学的“标志性”景点——芙蓉隧道,听说只要是来过厦门大学的,就没有没走过芙蓉隧道的,全国各地的游客们都慕名而来。隧道两边墙上都是学校里各种社团组织作的画报涂鸦墙,各种创意的涂鸦,焕发着青春的活力,让人很是感动。

第四天一早,我们来到了中国最美丽的岛屿——鼓浪屿。这个岛上没有一辆汽车,到处都是古色古香的房屋。据说在这个岛上,每家每户都有一架钢琴,因此也被称作“钢琴岛”。正值盛夏,岛上花繁叶茂,透着安静古朴。

我们先来到故宫鼓浪屿外国文物馆,这里的文物很精致也很珍贵,都是明清时期我国与外国文化交流的“结晶”,琳琅满目。我们在岛上吃了许多闽南风味小吃,有闽南肠粉、五香卷、沙茶面、海蛎煎等等。

饱餐过后,我们来到了日光岩。登上日光岩,整个鼓浪屿尽收眼底,密密麻麻参差不齐的房屋,湛蓝的天空,飘着一朵朵云,海面上风平浪静,吹着风,仿佛时间停止了。

厦门之行,有趣又难忘,希望有机会能再次来到这座美丽的城市。
