以我的暑假为题的英语作文带翻译（精品20篇）

I would rather suffer hardships than fail。 In other words， to achieve

success is my only desire。 We all know that there are many factors of success。

Now let me write down the most important ones in the following。

Diligence—Foolish as a person is， he can succeed in his work if he works

hard。 That does not admit of any doubt。

Perseverance—When you fail， don’t lose heart。 Keep on working until you

acplish your aim。

Honesty—If you tell lies or does not keep your words， no one will rely on

you。 I would rather be scolded than cheat (others)。

我宁愿受苦难不愿失败。换句话说，获致成功是我唯一的愿望。我们大家明白成功要素很多。此刻让我们把它们最重要的写在下方。

勤勉――一个人虽然不大聪明，但是他地能做成他的工作，如果他苦干的话。那是不容置疑的。

毅力――当你失败的时候，不要灰心。要继续工作，直到你到达目的为止。

诚实――如果你说谎或不守信，没有人会信赖你。我宁愿挨骂不愿欺骗人。

There are many interesting things in my summer vacation, and the

interesting things in summer vacation are like spray after spray, which will be

treasured in my memory forever. Remember a holiday at noon, the sun baked the

earth.

Look! Cicada and other animals are crying feebly: "dead hot, dead hot..."

the flowers are also sighing, it seems to wither, grass bent down, almost

scorched by the hot sun, dejected cry: "thirsty, thirsty"! There was a heat wave

in the air, and people were almost out of breath. But this afternoon, our family

held a total of interesting family magic competition. First of all, my father

came out, he performed a magic called "China blizzard". I saw my father first

took out a folding fan, and then opened it. He still recited the words "heavenly

spirit, earthly spirit" in his mouth. In fact, it was just a decoration. Below,

I saw my father holding a fan, began to fan up, I saw the colorful pieces of

paper flying out of the air.

Just as I was thinking about how Dads magic changed, mom began to perform.

My mother took a pencil and a red cloth and began to perform. I saw my mother

put the pencil under the red cloth. After putting it away, she was also

reciting. After a while, a pencil came out of the red cloth. Originally, this

magic is called "wear pencil".

Finally, I give mom and dad a score of 9. 5, mom 9, Dad won. Good times are

always short. Unconsciously, we have spent an afternoon in this lively and

amazing time. Throw all the sultry weather out of the way. At the moment, our

family are immersed in this joyful atmosphere!

Time flies, summer vacation is

coming to an end, but some interesting things are always hard to forget, will be

deeply imprinted in my mind!

After morning’s class,we couldn’t help rushing to the cafeteria.It always brought us coolness.The food was so-so,but the home-cooking is much delicious.When we almost finished eating,I suddenly saw a familiar face——our foreign teacher Nick.A girl was sitting beside him.They were talking over lunch.I at once told my friends Sandy and Jenny about it.We were so excited.I slowed my speed of eating to wait for that girl.At the moment,they finished their lunch and walked by us with the smile on their faces.Nick seemed so different from how he looked in the class.I guess that is the power of love.Hope they will enjoy everyday when they get together.So romantic!

I expect that Nick will tell his love story to us.

One morning in the winter, I went to school with my bag and found the fog below.

Oh The fog?! In front of the mountain The grass is green and luxuriant. shy, reluctant to take out the white fog to block. Streets, villages, and pedestrians are shrouded in thick fog, the whole town is the fog of the sea. At first, on the road to see the figure, it was all gray, approached to see the contours of a person. In the street, the car has been raised by the lantern, a flash, and slowly move forward, as if the old man walking night. People walking in the sea of mist, like the fairy The Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, seem to be Yu Yunduan. While the fog dispersed, while gather together, while rising, while landing. Everywhere is white, everywhere is white, like a fairy and a white horse in the sky, but also like the myth of "water overflows golden hill". The sun in the sky is so small, the color is very light, very light, only a yellow plate.

In the morning, the fog gradually faded, into a very thin and very thin yarn, in the air floated, sometimes far, sometimes near; sometimes high, sometimes low. This layer of yarn was soon in the hands of the gourd gourd, all gone. Beautiful mountains, tall trees and all the world show their original face. Look, the sun woke up, the sky is smiling to us!

Fog, you have brought us a change, brings the imagination, brings the joy, brings the colorful scenery.

冬天的一个早晨，我背着书包上学，发现楼下的雾可浓了。

哦！下雾了？！前方的青翠欲滴的大山很害羞，不愿意出来，拿白白的雾来遮挡。大街、村庄、行人全被浓雾给笼罩起来了，整个小镇全是雾海。起初在路上还看不见人影，全是灰蒙蒙的，走近了才能看见人的轮廓。在大街上，汽车全提起了灯笼，一闪一闪的，缓缓地向前行驶，仿佛是走夜路的老爷爷。人们在雾海中行走，就像是八仙过海中的仙人一样，似乎置身于云端。大雾一会儿分散开来，一会儿聚拢在一起，一会儿升起，一会儿降落。到处都是乳白色，到处都是白茫茫的，宛如仙女在天上撒下一匹白布，又像是神话中的“水漫金山”。太阳在天上显得是那么弱小，颜色很淡很淡，只有一个黄色的盘子。

上午，浓雾渐渐淡了，变成了一层很薄很薄的纱，在空中飘来飘去，时而远，时而近；时而高，时而低。这层“纱”不久被葫芦娃手中的葫芦收进去了，荡然无存。秀丽的山，高大的树和世界万物又显出它们原有的面容。瞧，太阳睡醒了，正在天上对我们笑哩！

雾，你给我们带来了变化，带来了想象，带来了欢乐，更带来了五彩缤纷的景色。

某人在屋檐下躲雨，看见观音正撑伞走过。这人说：“观音菩萨，普度一下众生吧，带我一段如何?”观音说：“我在雨里，你在檐下，而檐下无雨，你不需要我度。”这人立刻跳出檐下，站在雨中：“现在我也在雨中了，该度我了吧?”观音说：“你在雨中，我也在雨中，我不被淋，因为有伞;你被雨淋，因为无伞。所以不是我度自己，而是伞度我。你要想度，不必找我，请自找伞去!”说完便走了。第二天，这人遇到了难事，便去寺庙里求观音。走进庙里，才发现观音的像前也有一个人在拜，那个人长得和观音一模一样，丝毫不差。这人问：“你是观音吗?”那人答道：“我正是观音。”这人又问：“那你为何还拜自己?”观音笑道：“我也遇到了难事，但我知道，求人不如求己。”

The Great Wall is one of the greatest wonders of the world.It attracts thousands of tourists both at home and abroad every day.It runs across the mountains,like a dragon.

When we got there we were very excited that we began toclimbimmediately.The steps sometimes were very flat,but sometimes very steep.After two hours of climbing,we got to the top at last.I enjoyed the beauty of the mountains andtook a lot of photos.I felt really proud and thought of the famous saying:He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true man.

If you come to China,I’ll be glad to take you to the Great Wall so that you can appreciate the beautiful scenery of the Great Wall.

We dont know, how long can you live in this world, the only sure: "family love" is never change. My family is not rich, but I have a warm family, also let me understand a lot of way of doing things a person, everyone wants to be loved, but dont know what is the definition of love? Actually, love is very simple, just hard to understand a person, and to care for others.

Life wont last very long, I hope that love in the world, this is my view of the world, because I know, nothing, no character, no love, no care is equal to the waste in life, there is no meaning, so, dont let your own life meaningful? So, I want to take advantage of reading to giving back to the family love.

人出生在这世界上，最早接触到的就是“家人”，也许我们曾经和家人吵架过，也有意见不合的时候，但当受到挫折时，却是他们陪伴着我们，一起走向未知的未来，或许和他们的相处时间可能不会很久，但他们却毫无保留的把爱给我们，我承认，我真的很会惹父母生气，不过在升上国一时，我改了，因为我不想在过鬼打墙的日子中，浪费了属于我们的时光。

我们并不知道，自己到底可以在这个世界上活多久，而唯一肯定的是：“家人的爱”是永远不会变的。我家并不富有，但我有个温馨的家庭，也让我懂很多做人处事的道理，每一个人都希望被爱，不过，并不知道爱的定义是甚么?其实，爱很简单，只是用心的去懂一个人，并且去关怀他人而已。

生命不会长久，但愿爱永在世上，这是我对这个世界的看法，因为我懂，没有事物、没有人物、没有爱、没有关怀等于在虚掷人生，毫无意义，既然如此，位什么不让自己的人生有意义点呢?所以，我想利用读书来回馈家人的爱。

假如，父母不在乎自己的女儿，就不会留下自己的眼泪，而子女不在乎自己的父母，就不会努拼着事业，来让自己的父母过好一点的生活。而我，也是一样的，对自己的家人也会有感情、舍不得、开心、难过等情绪存在，最后我想说的是，“我真的很爱我们家所有的人。”

strove hard to paddle, and the water splashed everywhere. Each dragon boat

chased after each other. At last, the laggard No. 1 finally caught up with the

far ahead No. 2. The audience couldnt help cheering. There was a sea of joy

everywhere. Ah! This is the most unforgettable day for me.

它穿着一身白黑相间的衣服，看起来就像一位绅士;他有两只小眼睛，总是转来转去，一到晚上，便成了"绿宝石”;它的耳朵也十分可爱，尖尖的，就像一座小山峰。

它吃鱼时很顽皮。有一次我给它一条鱼，拿在手上在它眼睛要来晃去，它也无动于衷。我便有点生气的对它说：“小可爱，你怎么不吃啊?”我想啊，它可能害怕不敢吃。于是，我故意扭转头，没想到，我手中一动，只见它飞快地把鱼叼走了，然后津津有味地吃起来。真是顽皮!

它最爱玩得当然是线团。有一次，袋子里的线团不小心掉了出来。它看见这五颜六色的小圆球，感到很好奇。便走过去，它有点害怕的用手点一下线团，见线团没什么反应，便渐渐敢玩了。可是它越玩越疯狂，在屋里跑来跑去，在地上滚来滚去，把屋里弄得乱七八糟。最后，它玩累了，看到这么乱，连忙走过来，对着我叫，像是在向我求救。没办法，要不想被妈妈知道，只好帮它收拾残局。

Save the Wild Animals

Many wild animals are facing the danger of extinction, because the environment that they are living in has changed greatly. For example, with the developmet of cities, the using of insecticide and serious pollution, their living areas have become narrowcr and narrower. Many of the wild animals, now are confronted with food crisis. At the same time, man is killing off species just for getting their fur, skin, horns, teeth and meat.

In order to protect our resources of ecology, people should realize that the loss of any species is at least the loss of source of knowledge and a source of natural beauty. There fore, measures of the following should be taken: pollution standards are made to keepdown poisons; killing off certain rare species is prohibited; national parks should be set up as wild life, reserves.

Only if we human beings take some drastic measures can wild animals be preserved.

保护野生动物

许多野生动物正面临绝种的危险，因为它们生活的环境发生了极大的变化。譬 如，随着城市的发展，杀虫剂的使用和严重的污染，野生动物的生活区域变得越来越狭小。许多野生动物目前正面临着食物方面的危机。同时，为了获取野生动物的毛、皮、角、牙齿和肉，人类正在屠杀野生动物。

为了保护生态资源，人们应当意识到任何物种的缺失，至少意味着知识资源和自然美的缺失。因此，应采取以下措施：制订污染标准以降低有毒物质;严禁杀害某些稀有物种;应建立国家公园作为野生动植物保护区。

我们只有采取一些有力措施，才能保护野生动物。
