This summer holiday, I had travelled to Hong Kong with many other students. We went to Hong Kong by plane. Hong Kong is very small, but there are many people living there.

In Hong Kong, all of the buildings are very tall. There are lots of shops there and you can go shopping until about 11:00 at night. In Hong Kong, things are very expensive, so we only bought a few souvenirs.

We went to lots of places, such as the Avenue of Stars and Ocean Park. I like Ocean Park best. The park is very big. Sitting in the cable car, you can see two hills, lots of different flowers and the sea. Some students were afraid of sitting in the cable car!

We stayed in the Shu Ren College. There are many big trees around it. We had meals in the restaurants, but I didnt like the food.

Hong Kong is very beautiful. I like Hong Kong and I hope to go there again some day.

Sir, it so happened that I was on my way home and noticed who were around

and what they were doing. A man in a dark suit was walking out of the door, with

an umbrella in his hand. A man was sweeping near the telephone booth. A woman

and her child were crossing the road. There was a basket on the womans right

arm. A man with a cap was on a ladder,cleaning the wall. A man was reading under

the tree. In the telephone booth, a girl was making a call. By the side of the

street, I found a black car parked there with a door open. In the car there were

two persons. The driver was sitting in the front, and the passenger was in the

back.

Sir, it so happened that I was on my way home and noticed who were around

and what they were doing. A man in black was standing by the door, with an

of the road with a door open. There was a driver sitting in the front and a

passenger in the back. A lady with a child was walking across the street. She

was carrying a basket on the arm. On the other side of the load, a man was

sweeping the street near the telephone booth. There was a girl making a phone

call in the telephone booth.

Environment Protection

Nowadays, peoples life has changed a lot with the development of modern technology and economy, which has put lots of negative effects on the environment.

Why this? Because, firstly, some factories are pouring wastes into rivers, lakes, seas and so forth; secondly, because of human activities, agreat number of plants and animals are losing their lives; thirdly, using modern machines and chemicals is bad for the environment. Besides these, there are a lot of human activities which have done or are doing harm to our surroundings.

For this, I think, first, our government should make drastic measures to regulate human activities; second, we human beings should take pains-taking work to stop ourselves destroying the environment and try our best to protect our living space more.

[高一英语期末考试作文

“迈出这个家门，你就永远也不要回来”父亲愤怒的训斥变成了咆哮!

“不回来就不回来!”她颤抖的肩膀很明显地抖了一下，接着便大步迈过那破旧的木门槛，哭着向远方奔去。

外面的精彩无时无刻不在诱惑着这穷山沟里的每一个人，她也一样。高考的失败让一度优秀的她变得心灰意冷。十几天来，她情绪极不稳定，家里人都怕触动她的那一根弦：母亲变得更加体贴入微，哥哥也十分顺从她，常笨手笨脚地给她叠小时常玩的纸飞机。我也对这个姐姐百依百顺，常撒娇地在和她说那些自己也笑不出来的笑话。

只有父亲的表情，依然是冷冷的!

面对这三个子女，父亲劳累半生，但他从不将任何苦痛带给我们，可也从不和我们过于亲近，我们也只能敬而远之。这次例外，姐姐终于和父亲爆发了那不可思议的战争!

山里的娃想要迈出这穷山沟无可厚非，父亲也一直支持我们读书，哥哥落榜后种了田，父亲就从未笑过。但大家都明白：他将所有重担都压在了姐姐和我身上。我尚小，姐姐的压力就更大了，这次高考的失利，我们完全相信她是被压力压垮了!姐姐再没有勇气来面对自己的失败!

父亲的态度定会让事情有改变，我们都在期待着!

“让娃再读一年吧!”父亲深深地吸了一口烟，吐出一个烟圈，在空中慢慢消散。

母亲的眼睛亮了起来，急忙地说了一声好。我和哥哥也分外高兴，同时将目光瞄向了姐姐。

姐姐“突”地站起来，涨红了脸，眼光布满了血丝，声音非常镇定地甩出来一句：我不读了，我要去打工，我要供妹妹读书，其实迈出这个山沟，我照样可以成功……

话还未说完，姐姐的脸上就多了一记响亮的耳光，原本涨红的脸上愈发火辣，姐姐很愕然，父亲很愤然。

“我和你娘吃这么多苦就是为了让你们能迈出这个家门，迈出这个穷山沟儿，但咱要轰轰烈烈地迈出去，可不能打了败仗逃出去!打工能有多大出息?你学的文化都让你给糟蹋了，要用上，用到正地儿去，将来再回来时也是带着大伙过上好日子的……”

但这番话仍未能留住姐姐的脚步，姐姐终于气愤地迈出了这个门槛，但父亲却微笑着点点头。

他太了解他的孩子了!

黄昏的时候，姐姐回来了，她微笑着，脸上光彩照人。姐姐终于没有迈出这个家门槛，她将失败的痛埋在了心底，在奋力拼搏着，为了能迈出去，能迈向成功，迈向未来!

导语：失败是成功之母。但我只想说成功是自信的婴儿。以下是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的关于自信的英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

As we all know, Failure is the mother of success. But I just want to say Success is the baby of confidence.

First of all, confidence makes us happier in our life. Life is like a wonderful song, a bright and colorful painting. If confidence is with us in our life, we will find that life really becomes richer and more interesting.

Then, confidence makes us brave and courageous. If we lack confidence in ourselves, how can we overcome difficulties we meet with? If we have no confideuce in ourselves, how can we succeed in developing ourselves in the future?Without confidence, nothing can be accomplished. That is to say, if you want to win, you have to believe in yourself.

Finally, I would like to use the following words as our mutual encouragement: If you think you can, you can.

【翻译】

我们都知道，失败是成功之母。但我只想说成功是自信的婴儿。

首先，自信使我们生活更幸福。人生就像一首美妙的歌，一幅绚丽多彩的画。如果我们生活中充满自信，我们会发现生活变得更加丰富有趣。

然后，信心使我们勇敢和勇敢。如果我们对自己缺乏信心，我们怎样才能克服遇到的困难呢?如果我们对自己没有自信，我们如何在未来成功地发展自己呢?没有信心，什么也做不成。也就是说，如果你想赢，你必须相信自己。

最后，我想用下面的话作为我们相互的鼓励：如果你认为你可以，你可以。

from the golden-tipped fields of mid-west america to the ancient kingdoms of verdant palestine, there is a happy truth to be shared with all who would take heed. in more recent times, this truth has been expressed as: april showers bring may flowers. this is a truth that promises light bursting from darkness, strength born from weakness and, if one dares to believe, life emerging from death.

从美国中西部金色的田野，到巴勒斯坦嫩绿色的古老疆土，那些留心观察的人共享着同一个快乐真理。近来这一真理被阐述为：四月的雨带来五月的花。这一真理预示光明会从黑暗中迸发;刚强生自软弱;如果你敢确信，生命会从死亡中萌发!

farmers all over the world know the importance and immutability of the seasons. they know that there is a season to plant and a season to harvest; everything must be done in its own time. although the rain pours down with the utmost relentlessness, ceasing all outdoor activities, the man of the field lifts his face to the heavens and smiles. despite the inconvenience, he knows that the rain provides the nourishment his crops need to grow and flourish. the torrential rains in the month of april, give rise to the glorious flowers in the month of may.

全世界的农民们都明白季节的重要性和永恒性。他们知道在哪个季节播种，哪个季节收获，每件事都必须应时而做!虽然暴雨无情地倾盆而下，迫使所有的户外劳作停止，但土地的主人会仰天微笑。尽管有诸多不便，但是他知道，雨会为他的庄稼带来繁茂生长所需的营养。四月里的豪雨，会带来五月里的繁花似锦。

but this ancient truth applies to more than the crops of the fields; it is an invaluable message of hope to all who experience tragedy in life. a dashed relationship with one can open up the door to a brand new friendship with another. a lost job here can provide the opportunity for a better job there. a broken dream can become the foundation of a wonderful future. everything has its place.

但是这一古老真理并不只适用于田里的庄稼，它还是那些正经历着人生磨难的人的无限希冀：一段友谊的受挫会开启另一段崭新友谊的大门;此处失去的工作会提供彼处更好的工作机会;一个梦想的破灭会成为美好未来的基石。万物皆有道!

remember this: overwhelming darkness may endure for a night, but it will never overcome the radiant light of the morning. when you are in a season of sorrow, hang in there, because a season of joy may be just around the corner…

请谨记：势不可挡的黑暗或有一晚，但它永远无法阻挡清晨的万丈光芒!当你正处于悲伤之季，请坚持住，因为欢乐的季节也许马上就会到来……

i never considered myself unique, but people are constantly telling me, "you are a miracle." to me, i was just an ordinary "guy" with realistic goals and big dreams. i was a 19-year-old student at the university of texas and well on my way toward fulfilling my "big dream" of one day becoming an orthopedic surgeon.

我从未觉得自己与众不同，但人们常对我说：“你的生命是个奇迹。”对我而言，我只是一个普通人，有着现实的目标和远大的理想。我曾是德克萨斯大学一名十九岁的大学生，在通向理想之路上信步前行，梦想有一天我会成为一名整形外科医生。

on the night of february 17, 1981 i was studying for an organic chemistry test at the library with sharon, my girlfriend of three years. sharon had asked me to drive her back to her dormitory as it was getting quite late. we got into my car, not realizing that just getting into a car would never quite be the same for me again. i quickly noticed that my gas gauge was registered on empty so i pulled into a nearby convenience store to buy 2.00 worth of gas. "ill be back in two minutes," i yelled at sharon as i closed the door. but instead, those two minutes changed my life forever.

1981年2月17日的晚上，我和交往三年的女友沙伦在为有机化学测试做准备。因为太晚了，沙伦叫我驾车把她送回宿舍。我们钻进汽车，谁能想到在今后的生命中我不能再如此矫健地重复这样一个简单的动作。我很快发现油表空了，于是我把车泊在附近的一家便利店旁，想买两块钱的汽油。“我两分钟就回来，”我关上车门朝沙伦喊到。但就是这短短的两分钟改变了我一生的命运，永远地改变了。

entering the convenience store was like entering the twilight zone. on the outside i was a healthy, athletic, pre-med student, but on the inside i was just another statistic of a violent crime. i thought i was entering an empty store, but suddenly i realized it was not empty at all. three robbers were in the process of committing a robbery and my entrance into the store caught them by surprise. one of the criminals immediately shoved a .38 caliber handgun to my head, ordered me to the cooler, pushed me down on the floor, and pumped a bullet into the back of my head -- execution style. he obviously thought i was dead because he did not shoot me again. the trio of thieves finished robbing the store and left calmly.

进入这家便利店就如同踏上了阴阳间的奈何桥，门外的我还是个健康的，活蹦乱跳的未婚大学生，而门内的我却成了暴力犯罪的又一个牺牲品。我还以为店里没有人，但我突然发现我错了——有三个匪徒正在打劫这家店，而我的进入让他们有些惊慌失措。其中一个匪徒迅速掏出一把口径为38毫米的手枪用力指着我的头，勒令我走到冷冻机旁，然后把我推倒在地，像执行死刑般从后面朝我头部开了一枪。他没再朝我开第二枪，显然他以为我死了。打劫完后三个劫匪逃之夭夭。

meanwhile, sharon wondered why i had not returned. after seeing the three men leave the store she really began to worry as i was the last person she saw entering the store. she quickly went inside to look for me, but saw no one-only an almost empty cash register containing one check and several pennies. quickly she ran down each aisle shouting, "mike, mike!"

与此同时，沙伦对我的不归忧心忡忡。看到这三个匪徒离开便利店后她真的很担心，因为我是她见到的最后一个进入店里的人。她赶快跑进店来找我，只见几乎被一扫而空的收银机上挂着一张帐单，还有几枚硬币散落在上面，四周无人。她在货架间飞快地跑着、喊着：“迈克，迈克!”

just then the attendant appeared from the back of the store shouting, "lady, get down on the floor. ive just been robbed and shot at!"

这时一名服务员从店后面走出来叫到：“小姐，过来一下，我刚才被打劫了，他们还向我开了枪。”

sharon quickly dropped to the floor screaming, "have you seen my boyfriend? he has auburn hair." the man did not reply but went back to the cooler where he found me choking on my vomit. the attendant quickly cleaned my mouth and then called for the police and an ambulance.

沙伦跌跌撞撞地过来哭喊到：“你见到我的男朋友了吗?长褐色头发的。” 那人默默走到冷冻机旁，找到了我，此时呕吐快令到我窒息了。他赶忙帮我擦干了嘴，叫了警察和救护车。

sharon was in shock. she was beginning to understand that i was hurt, but she could not begin to comprehend or imagine the severity of my injury.

沙伦被吓坏了。渐渐地她才明白我受伤了，但是她根本想象不到伤势的严重性。

when the police arrived they immediately called the homicide division as they did not think i would survive and the paramedic reported that she had never seen a person so severely wounded survive. at 1:30 a.m. my parents who lived in houston, were awakened by a telephone call from brackenridge hospital advising them to come to austin as soon as possible for they feared i would not make it through the night.

警察来了，他们很快断定是杀人案，因为没人相信我还能活过来，而救护人员说她从来没有见过伤势如此严重的人可以逃离死劫。下午一点半，我住在奥斯汀的父母被来自布莱肯瑞吉医院的电话铃惊醒，医院通知他们尽快赶到奥斯汀，因为他们认为我熬不过当晚了。

but i did make it through the night and early in the morning the neurosurgeon decided to operate. however, he quickly informed my family and sharon that my chances of surviving the surgery were only 40/60. if this were not bad enough, the neurosurgeon further shocked my family by telling them what life would be like for me if i beat the odds and survived. he said i probably would never walk, talk, or be able to understand even simple commands.

但那晚我挺了过来，第二天清晨神经外科医生决定给我动手术。但他立即告知我的家人和沙伦我存活的机会只有百分之四十。然后他还雪上加霜地告诉我的家人，向他们描述如果我万幸活下来将面临怎样的生活——我可能再也不会走路了，不会说话了，甚至不能理解一些极其简单的命令。这些对我的家人来说都是莫大的打击。

my family was hoping and praying to hear even the slightest bit of encouragement from that doctor. instead, his pessimistic words gave my family no reason to believe that i would ever again be a productive member of society. but once again i beat the odds and survived the three and a half hours of surgery. granted, i still could not talk, my entire right side was paralyzed and many people thought i could not understand, but at least i was stable. after one week in a private room the doctors felt i had improved enough to be transferred by jet ambulance to del oro rehabilitation hospital in houston.

本来家里人祈望能从医生的口中听到一点点鼓励的话，而他悲观的言语让他们没理由相信我还会成为一个对社会有用的人。在经历了三个半小时的手术之后，我再次侥幸地活了下来。医生的话得到了应验，我不能说话，整个右边的身体瘫痪了，许多人认为我变傻了，但至少我身体状况是稳定的。在私人看护病房里呆了一个星期后，医生觉得我已经好转了许多，并可以坐救护飞机转到奥斯汀的德欧洛康复医院。

my hallucinations, coupled with my physical problems, made my prognosis still very bleak. however, as time passed my mind began to clear and approximately six weeks later my right leg began to move ever so slightly. within seven weeks my right arm slowly began to move and at eight weeks i uttered my first few words. my speech was extremely difficult and slow in the beginning, but at least it was a beginning. i was starting to look forward to each new day to see how far i would progress. but just as i thought my life was finally looking brighter i was tested by the hospital euro-psychologist. she explained to me that judging from my test results she believed that i should not focus on returning to college but that it would be better to set more "realistic goals."

意识上的幻觉和生理上的病疾使我的病情预断非常的渺茫。然而时间的飞逝使我的意识开始变得清晰，大约六个星期以后我的右腿可以轻微地活动了，七周以后我的右臂开始缓慢地活动了，八周以后我终于开口说话了。说话对于我非常地艰难并且开始的时候说得很慢，但是总算是开头了。我开始寄希望于新的一天的到来，祈望着新的进步。但正当我以为生活总算初露光明的时候，医院里有个欧洲来的心理学家对我做了测试。她向我解释到，从检测的结果来看她坚信我不能再重返学校，劝我对此不要抱有任何希望，希望我最好树立些更现实点的目标。

upon hearing her evaluation i became furious for i thought, "who is she to tell me what i can or cannot do. she does not even know me. i am a very determined and stubborn person!" i believe it was at that very moment that i decided i would somehow, someday return to college.

她的这番结论让我怒不可遏，“她是谁，凭什么告诉我能做什么或不能做什么。她根本不了解我。我是很坚强而固执的人!”我相信就在那时我决定无论如何，总有一天我会返回学校的。

it took me a long time and a lot of hard work but i finally returned to the university of texas in the fall of 1983 -- a year and a half after almost dying. the next few years in austin were very difficult for me, but i truly believe that in order to see beauty in life you have to experience some unpleasantness. maybe i have experienced too much unpleasantness, but i believe in living each day to the fullest, and doing the very best i can. and each new day was very busy and very full, for besides attending classes at the university i underwent therapy three to five days each week at brackenridge hospital. if this were not enough i flew to houston every other weekend to work with tom williams, a trainer and executive who had worked for many colleges and professional teams and also had helped many injured athletes, such as earl campbell and eric dickerson. through tom i learned: "nothing is impossible and never, never give up or quit."

在经历了一年半垂死挣扎的生活后，在漫长的等待和艰辛的付出后，终于在1983年的秋天，我返回了德克萨斯大学。在奥斯汀接下来的几年里我生活得非常艰难，但我确信为了看到生活中的真善美你必须要经历一些苦难。也许我经历的苦难太多了，但我有一个信念——充实地过每一天，尽力做到最好。日子过的很繁忙、很充实，除了读书，每周我还在要在布莱肯瑞吉医院接受三到五次的治疗。如果这还不够忙的话，我还要隔周和汤姆·威廉斯飞到奥斯汀工作。汤姆是一个教练兼主管，他曾效力于许多大学校队和职业联队，并帮助过许多受伤的运动员，如：厄尔·坎贝尔和艾立克·迪克森。从汤姆的身上我学到“没有什么是不可能的，千万千万不要放弃，永不放弃。”

early, during my therapy, my father kept repeating to me one of his favorite sayings. i have repeated it almost every day since being hurt: "mile by mile its a trial; yard by yard its hard; but inch by inch its a cinch."

早在我接受治疗的时候，父亲总是重复他最爱的那句话，每天当我感到痛苦的时候我也对自己重复那句话，那就是“脚踏实地，切勿急功近利。”

i thought of those words, and i thought of tom, my family and sharon who believed so strongly in me as i climbed the steps to receive my diploma from the dean of liberal arts at the university of texas on that bright sunny afternoon in june of 1986. excitement and pride filled my heart as i heard the dean announce that i had graduated with "highest honors", been elected to phi beta kappa, and been chosen as one of 12 deans distinguished graduates out of 1600 in the college of liberal arts. the overwhelming emotions and feelings that i experienced at that very moment, when most of the audience gave me a standing ovation, i felt would never again be matched in my life-not even when i graduated with a masters degree in social work and not even when i became employed full time at the texas pain and stress center. but i was wrong!

1986年六月那个阳光明媚的午后，当我步履蹒跚地走上德克萨斯大学迪安文学院的台阶接受文凭的时候，我思索着这些话，想到汤姆、父母还有沙伦，他们都那么坚定地给予了我信任。当我听到院长宣布我以最高荣誉毕业时，我的心中充满了骄傲和自信。接着他还宣布我被选入美国大学优等生荣誉学会，并在1600名毕业生中当选为12名迪安文学院的杰出毕业生之一。当场有许多观众站起来为我鼓掌，那一刻令我心潮澎湃、百感交集。我甚至觉得生命中不可能再经历那样的感慨和激情，这种想法一直延续到我获得社会学的硕士学位，成为德克萨斯止痛减压中心的一名全职工作人员。但幸运之神再次眷顾了我!

on may 24, 1987, i realized that nothing could ever match the joy i felt as sharon and i were married. sharon, my high school sweetheart of nine years, had always stood by me, through good and bad times. to me, sharon is my miracle, my diamond in a world filled with problems, hurt, and pain. it was sharon who dropped out of school when i was hurt so that she could constantly be at my side. she never wavered or gave up on me. it was her faith and love that pulled me through so many dark days. while other nineteen year old girls were going to parties and enjoying life, sharon devoted her life to my recovery. that, to me, is the true definition of love. after our beautiful wedding i continued working part time at the pain center and completed my work for a masters degree. we were extremely happy, but even happier when we learned sharon was pregnant.

1987年5月24日，我觉得再没有什么能与此时的快乐相提并论，我和沙伦结婚了。沙伦是我高中时代的女友，风风雨雨九年来，她一直陪在我身旁。对我来说，她是我的奇迹，是我在这个充满困惑和伤痛的世界上拥有的一颗钻石。为了能日夜守侯在我的身旁，沙伦在我受伤的时候放弃了学业。她的爱从未动摇过，她从未抛弃过我。是她的忠诚和爱伴着我度过了无数个黑暗的日子。当别的十九岁的女孩子参加舞会、享受生活的时候，沙伦把青春献给了病床上的我，等待我的康复。对我来说，这就是爱的真谛。在那个美满的婚礼之后，我继续在止痛中心做着兼职的工作，并获得了我的硕士学位。我们非常的幸福，而沙伦怀孕的消息更让我们恩爱有加。

on july 11, 1990 at 12:15 a.m. sharon woke me with the news: "we need to go to the hospital… my water just broke." i couldnt help but think how ironic it was that my life almost ended in a convenience store and now on the date "7-11" we were about to bring a new life into this world. this time it was my turn to help sharon as she had helped me over those past years. she was in labor for 15 hours. at 3:10 p.m. sharon and i experienced the birth of our beautiful daughter, shawn elyse segal! tears of joy and happiness came to my eyes as our healthy, alert, wonderful daughter entered this world. we anxiously counted her 10 fingers and her 10 toes and watched her wide eyes take in the world about her. it was truly a beautiful picture that was etched in my mind forever as she lie in her mothers waiting arms, just minutes after her birth. at that moment i thanked god for blessing us with the greatest miracle of all-shawn elyse segal.

1990年7月11日12点15分，沙伦把我从梦中唤醒：“我们得去医院了……我羊水破了。”我忍不住想命运真让人啼笑皆非，它几乎让我在那家便利店里丢了性命，而在一个命名为“7·11”的日子里它却让我迎来新生命的出世。多年来沙伦帮我度过了一次又一次难关，这次该我来帮助她了。沙伦经历了15个小时的分娩。在3点10分的时候，沙伦和我一起迎来了我们美丽的女儿——萧恩·艾丽斯·斯高。当我看到美丽的女儿健康地来到这个世上，喜悦和幸福化作泪水夺眶而出。我们迫不及待地数着她的十个手指和十只脚趾，看着她大大的眼睛注视着她的世界。初生的婴儿躺在妈妈柔软的怀里如一副优美的图画将永驻我的心中。那一刻，我感谢上帝赐予我们如此最伟大的奇迹——我的萧恩·艾丽斯·斯高。

Our school is far away from the downtown. As a result, it is a good place

for students to study. We won’t be disturbed by the crowded people and the

noise. For me, I like the scenery in the campus, trees are around, especially

when I look out of the window in the break time. I will look at the scenery that

is far away, sometimes I can see birds flying. There is a road that circles the

mountain, which looks like a snake. When cars are driving in the road, I will be

wondering who is coming, maybe our parents or just some strangers. The scenery

outside the window provides me another world. I like to think about a lot of

questions and sometimes my thought will go around the mountain. This is my

little world.

A new term began. students all returned to school and met again. they were talking about what they had done in the holidays. I was much happier. I couldnt wait to tell my story. now its my turn. i told them i got a job in a restaurant. I worked as a waitress. they didnt believe at first.

"yes, its true. "i said," I really had a hard time at the beginning. But several days later, i could do a good job. I earned six hundred yuan this holiday. "They all looked at me with their mouths open.

It is said that Chinese parents are the worlds most responsible parents,

since the kids are born, they start to plan everything for the children, they

choose the school, the kids hobby even the kids partners. Chinese parents want

to raise their kids to be the excellent ones, they put so much hope on the kids.

While it is also said the Chinese kids are the worlds most unhappy kids,

because they live as what the parents tell them, they dont have their own

thinking. www.yyzw.com Both sides reflect Chinese family situation that the

parents give the children too much pressure, the children feel unhappy about

their parents expectation. Indeed, I feel the way, my parents always want me to

be the No.1, they tell me I should get the highest score, I feel tired, I tell

them how I feel, then they begin to realize their expectation has become a

burden for me. parents should give space to their kids.

初秋的黄昏也许是一年四季中最美的景色，在认真享受美好景色的那一片刻，一片枫叶幽然悠然的飘落了下来。

地上，只有孤独的一片，它静静的躺在那里。当有风吹过的时候，它又飘了起来，飘飘停停，我忽然悟到，这一片叶子，却拥有着其它事物所没有的伟大，瑰丽和无价。

看着它，我不忍心再让它无尽头的飘泊，不忍心让它的无价变的廉价，更不忍心让它本身所赋有的美，因此而逐渐消失。我走上前，拣起它，放在了手中，有一种突然的怦然心动，它原本在一个伟大的生命上勇敢且顽强的生长着，现在却使它飘落，“叶子的离开，是因为风的追求还是树的不挽留？”也许没有人能了解这其中的原因，也许它将永远是一个美好的迷。

看着手里的这片叶子，它已不再是曾经树梢上的一员了，落叶是最辛苦的使者和参与者。没有被人拣到的落叶数不胜数，过往行人和树叶相忘在忽忽之中。没有人知道一片落叶的最终归宿，从它努力发芽而生的那一刻，它就没去计较它的报酬，它只想带给人们一片葱绿，为他人遮阴，在人们最需要他的时候。时令一到，它又无怨无悔的离开生命之根，默默无闻，舍已的飘落，从不阴挡人们最需要的那一片阳光。虽然手中这片渺小的落叶已没有了生命，但它的生命历程却演示着不杞的价值和灵魂，演示着追求自我的突破。

看着叶子，让我不禁想起了2008年的奥运会。虽然我们并不是运动员，却拥有跟运动员一样的紧张与兴奋。虽然，在2004年中，中国并没有突出重围，取得世界排名第一，但是想想那片落叶的精神，奥运不是在于征服，而是在于自我的努力和奋斗有方。

凭着中国众多优秀运动员，他们个个具有自己顽强的毅力和拼搏的精神，他们拥有落叶一般的舍身为国，甘于吃苦和勇敢而不朽的灵魂。

有时我认为，一片落叶就是为了下一个生命的诞生，然而，在这个世界上，只要有生命的事物都是如此伟大的，那种伟大不是来自表面，而是来源于内心的极限，人类要进步应是有奋争的，一片没有了生命的落叶通过自己本身所持有的毅力，四处飘泊，经历风雨，找寻自己的归宿，人们也一样，也一直向着自己的理想迈步。人生就是一个大舞台，成功与失败也许就在一瞬之间。奥运会是激励人与人之间强弱比拼的一种方式，然而它是残酷的，每一个运动员都会像落叶一样，经历风雨，经历磨练，找寻属于自己的位置。

在许多人眼里，一片落叶，无人注意，无人喜爱，一个失败的运动员，得不到应有的同情。但是，我认为：奥运会只是提供了一次比赛的机会。成功的人我们敬佩，我们仰慕，而失败的人我们应该更加关注，给予他们强大的力量与支持，使他们的付出更有价值。

在商业时代，在缺乏信仰的时代，我们更应使这种珍贵的灵魂散发光芒。

落叶是美的，但并没有人留意过它，失败的人并不可悲，失败乃成功之母，失败者给后者留下的价值是不言而喻的。因为失败，所以让后者离成功更近。

美好的灵魂是伟大的又是可敬的，只要每位运动员都拥有了像落叶一样的灵魂，2008年的奥运会一定能更强，更大，更成功。

In recent years， studying abroad has flourished. Thousands of schloars and students have gone to foreign countries to study. Many people are sparing no effort in applying for going abroad.

Attending schools abroad has many advantages. In the first place， students who have studied abroad can act as mediators between peoples of different cultures so as to promote international understanding. Secondly， we can learn much more advanced knowledge of science and technology from the foreign countries. Thirdly， we can enjoy the contact with new and different cultures so as to increase the awareness of our own culture. Fourthly， we can learn a foreign language more quickly.

However，studying abroad may have disadvantages such as language barrier in the first few months or financial difficulties before getting a scholarship. In spite of these，the advantages greatly outweigh the disadvantages. It is advisable to attend schools abroad.

近年来,出国留学已经蓬勃发展。成千上万的许多学者和学生去国外学习。许多人正全力以赴地申请出国。

在国外许学习有很多优势。首先,在国外学习的学生可以作为调解人民族之间不同的文化,促进国际理解。其次,我们可以学到更先进的科学知识和技术的外国国家。第三,我们可以享受接触新的及不同的文化,增加自己的文化的意识。第四,我们可以更快地学习外语。

然而,出国留学可能有缺点例如语言障碍在头几个月或财务困难获得奖学金。尽管这些优点大大大于缺点。,出国留学是明智的。

News, used to be the most dont like to see it. Since the childhood has been like watching cartoon and foam. Now over the years is already 15 years old girl, the adults always said I dont understand, I also often because of his bad temper, or not doing things. "Knowledge too little" finally let me find the dawn, from then on began to like the news.

Compared to the past, only reading does make me understand a lot of knowledge, also became the academic leaders, but its a downright failure in life. While reading can also know society, but after all the writers praise is the truth in life, and that I love watching cartoons, and eulogize justice and goodness, degeneration and reject evil. In such an environment, my heart has been living in the white cloud, so that as the growth of the age, heart is still very naive. But I will contact with the reality of society, the essence of this society is not absolutely fair, not cheated can only let oneself become strong. But when he does not know this, just complain, disposition also become bad. Fortunately, when I was going to despair, when the news took me, no let me into the who also do not know to have bottomless pit.

Know only after watching the news of the worlds largest and I small. The content of the news is very rich, I also have different preferences, from country to country, down to between people. I see from a real case: "some of the good qualities: honesty, integrity, good Samaritan, wisdom... how important it is for this society!

新闻，以前是最不喜欢看的。从小到大一直喜看动画片和泡沫剧。现今过了年已是十五岁的大姑娘了，大人们常说我不懂事，我也常因自己脾气不好，或是不会处理事情而烦恼。一句“见识太少”终于让我找到了曙光，从此便开始喜欢上新闻。

对比以往，只读书确实让我懂了不少知识，也成为了学业上的佼佼者，但在生活上却是一个失败透顶的人。虽然读书也可以认识社会，但毕竟作家们歌颂的都是生活中的真善美，以及那我爱看的动画片，也是讴歌正义和善良，贬低和排斥邪恶势力。在这样的环境影响下，我的心一直生活在洁白无瑕的云端，以至于随着年龄的增长，心确仍然很幼稚。但我终究要与现实的社会接触，这个社会的本质就是没有绝对的公平，要想不吃亏就只能让自己成为强者。可惜当初的自己并不懂得这点，只是一味的抱怨，性格也变得恶劣。幸运的是，当我快要绝望的时候，新闻拉住了我，没有让我滑向那个谁也不知道有没有底的深渊。

在看了新闻后才知道世界之大与我之渺小。新闻的内容很丰富，我的喜好也不尽相同，上到国家与国家之间，下到人与人之间。我从一个个真实的例子中看出：“人的一些美好的品质：诚信、正直、见义勇为、智慧……对于这个社会是多么重要!

June 3， Friday

On my way home on the bus， I saw an old man get on with his grandson of about ten. He was carrying the boy’s schoolbag and violin. I gave my seat to the old man at once. However， the boy sat down first. The old man had to stand nearby. After a while， the boy shouted to his grandfather for water and then dropped the empty bottle on the bus.

When a saw this， I got angry. I think the boy should not only respect and take care of the old man but also keep the environment clean.

Since I was very small, I watched a lot of sports with my father. My father

is a huge fan of basketball match. When he has time, he will sit in the sofa and

watch NBA. So I enjoy the time to watch the match with him. I also become a

sport fan, but my passion on sports is much stronger. I am interested in

watching all kinds of sports, besides basketball, tennis, volleyball and other

sports are favored by me. Though I am a girl, I play many sports in the school.

My classmates admire me. I feel so proud of myself of being different. Whats

more, doing sports makes me happy. I feel the energy when I am running in the

playground. I also learn to be patient and persistent, which helps me a lot in

my study.

The summer holiday is going to the end. I am happy in the holiday, because I do a lot of things. Now, the new term is coming, so I must make a plan for it. In the new term, I must work harder. I did not do very well in the last term. Therefore, I want to make progress in the new term. Besides, I want to do some more readings. Books are the best resources to get knowledge. So I want to make good use of books to improve myself. Finally, do exercise regularly. A healthy body is the basic of other things. I must take part in exercise to keep healthy. And doing exercise makes me relaxed and happy. I hope all my plans can come true in the new term.

暑假就要结束了，这是个快乐的暑假，因为我做了很多有意义的事情。新的学期马上就要来临，我要做好充分的计划。新学期我要加倍努力，因为在过去的一学期，自己做得不是很好。因此，新的学期要有新的突破。此外，我要多做些阅读，书籍是知识的源泉，所以我要好好利用书本提高自己。其次，要定时做运动。身体是革命的本钱，参加运动既能保持身体健康，又能使我快乐放松。我希望这些计划都能在新学期得以实现。

当庄子垂钓于濮水;陶渊明采菊于东篱;李白把酒临风，对月成影：欧阳修寄情山水，与民同乐;竹林七贤隐身修篁，借酒狂歌，粪土王侯……这些“闲云野鹤”告诉我们如何学会快乐。

毕淑敏在《忍受快乐》中告诫我们不要像文中所说得了“快乐焦虑症”的人一样面对快乐痛苦不堪，应该学会快乐，寻找快乐。的确，快乐何须忍受?只是取决于你是用积极乐观的心态去面对还是用消极的态度去应付。

乐观者和悲观者的细微差别就是前者看到了甜甜圈而后者只看到了甜甜圈里的空洞。而这一细微的差别就导致了两种截然不同的人生。

西班牙国王拉曼三世曾说：“我用尽余生平定天下，造福人民，可我一生中快乐的日子仅有十四天”。作为大家可望而不可及的国王也不能够保证自己每天都快乐，为何还要羡慕他显赫的地位和一生享不尽的财富呢?不如做一个躺在大树下躲避烈日的偷懒的农夫，就这样酣睡在那颗老榕树下。

《红楼梦》中林黛玉平素行事小心压抑，容易生气，临终大病有积郁所致，年纪轻轻便香消玉损了。然而，英国首相丘吉尔在二战期间忙里偷闲，游泳，打猎写文章……他说“我既抽烟又喝酒，可我是百分之两百的健康”。原因只是他拥有乐观积极的心态，在世界大战期间也能够拥有如此心态，实在让人羡慕不已。

我们不能够决定生命中每时每刻都充满快乐，但我们可以用心感受快乐，发现快乐。与其每天消极避世，倒不如打起精神来快乐面对每一天。快乐很简单，难的只是比别人快乐。如果学会了这样，即便是"行到水穷处”也可以“坐看云起时”，何乐而不为呢?

智者乐水，仁者乐山。山有山的趣，水有水的妙。像《江雪》中的渔翁一样快乐的“独钓寒江雪”。即便没有腰缠万贯，也要学会快乐，感受快乐，拥抱快乐。看鸡鸭成群，听狗吠深巷，闻芳草鲜美，抚松林翠竹。

Summer holiday is coming.I am going to do many things that I want to do. For exampie,first I will jion a soccer club,because I like playing soccer.

She was really tired when I was go to school. Except for taking care of me, she also has to work. Therefore, I want to help her in the holidays.What will you do on Summer Holiday?

暑假就要到来了，我打算做一些我想做的事。比如说，首先我要参加一个足球俱乐部，因为我喜欢踢足球。

暑假期间，我想多练习以提高我的技术。其次，我要去奶奶家，因为我很想念她。我想和她待几天。最后，我会帮我妈妈做些家务。我去学校的时候她真的很累。除了要照顾我之外，她还要工作。因此，我想在假期帮助她。暑假你会做些什么呢?

昔人已乘黄鹤去，此地空余黄鹤楼，黄鹤一去不复返，白云千载空悠悠 _____题记

我一个人孤单的站在站台上，看着来来往往，忙忙碌碌，拎着大包小包的人们流离远去。只有我，只有我一个人站在原地，一动不动，品位等待的孤独与烦躁，观察众生的忧喜与匆忙。

站台，是起点也是终点，我们总是不断地期待、寻找、迈向一个什么地方。而我却站在这永恒的站台的中点，向左?向右?还是前行后退?

天空是浅灰色的，昏鸦掠过，落下几缕残歌，我已离开站台。飞机开向了远方，划下了一条苍白的痕迹。时间如白驹过隙，魔术师戴着白色的手套，把那些看得见的痕迹轻轻抹去。眨一眨眼睛世界似乎不同了。不过它没能抹去我心中那些看不见的痕迹。

风轻轻的吹来，绕树三匝，留下点点寒意，却又带走我的体温，去了远方。就像你，那么专注地一笔一划地在我心中刻下了一整个世界，却这般轻描淡写地谢幕，离开了。

诗人说：你来过，一下子，我想念，一辈子。

其实你只是来过，而我能做的就只有怀念和猜测而已。多么希望我是你，可惜我不是你，看不见你面具下那张真实的脸，也学不会你的一蹙一颦。

我时常的思考，究竟是我看不懂你的苦心孤诣，还是我所执着的仅仅是你的信手一提?你去了便去了，可曾想过要回来看一看?而我也在这站台上选择了下一个中转站，不知何从…

梳洗罢，独倚望江楼，过尽千帆皆不是，斜晖脉脉水悠悠，肠断白频洲。

也许像我这样的人还有很多。每一处站台，每一处渡口，每一处望见浩瀚江水的楼台，都会有一个这样的人守着。望尽了千帆，望尽了离别，望断了肠，隆冬飞雪盖满了江面，也盖不住心中那个一方方铁划银勾的伤痕。

欲将心事付瑶琴，知音少，弦断有听?

曲终，人散，即使司马青衫湿尽，该走的还是要走的。未完的故事，取一支小巧的刻刀，一笔一划慢慢刻在心里。

这痕迹，永远不会淡去。

想起你时，还会如当初一般，刻骨铭心的痛，再取春雷琴，奏广陵散，可是，有谁与我来和?

永恒的站台?再见!从我离开的那一刻起，你是否知晓我曾来过?你是否知晓我曾站在你的肩上不知所措?你是否知晓我将踏往何方?你是否知晓我会否归来?你是否知晓……?

打开书卷，一股尘封的历史之气扑面而来。展现在眼前的是那金戈铁马，硝烟战火。“壮志饥餐胡虏肉，笑谈渴饮匈奴血，”那保家卫国的豪情，爱憎分明的壮志，给我以无尽的震撼。不说岳飞刺字抗金，单说夏完淳尚未及冠便已从军，就足以让人热血沸腾。在书中，是这些将士，用生命奏出了最嘹亮的战歌。

翻动书页，我看到了比干掏心的悲壮;看到了那天寒地冻中，粮食断绝时，门客割肉献主的义气;看到了文天祥抗元的英姿;看到了陆游忧国忧民的情思。在书中，是这些忠臣，诠释了什么叫心系天下，舍小身而取大义。那是足以流传千古的情怀浩大。

再往后看，出现的是“曾是惊鸿照影来”的沈园。在这里，我知道原来陆游如此深情。再一转身，我似乎瞧见唐伯虎在点秋香;我目睹了崔莺莺与张生的凄美爱情;感受到了杜丽娘的幽怨。在书中，是这些才子，家人，创造出了一段段缠绵悱恻，动人凄婉的故事与名作。

换一本书，扑鼻的是鲜花的芳香，青草的甘甜，自然之气带来了一幅幅美景。

普罗旺斯浪漫的薰衣草田，摇曳着形成一片紫色的海;江南的冬景，在郁达夫笔下有了灵性;九寨沟的秀丽风景令人神往不已。在书中，不必出门远行，不必花钱旅行，便已将世界名胜尽收眼底。

通过书，我与伟人对话。我了解了大全才王阳明，了解了一个脱去“圣人”光环的孔子，那么真性情，那么睿智;了解了梭罗独居瓦尔登湖的闲适自然;了解了塔莎奶奶对生活的热爱。真是应了一句话：“读一本好书，就是和一个高尚的人谈话。”读书，不仅仅开拓眼界，也丰富了我的知识。

在现代科技愈加发达的今天，人们更喜欢一种简、快的阅读方式，网络、手机的出现，把纸质的书排挤到了书柜，闲置着任凭尘封。而我认为，应该有个时间，轻轻翻开书页，细细品读，慢慢思考，与书为友，与书为伴。

想点一盏明灯，伴着荧荧星光，感悟人生。看那勇猛将士杀敌英姿，看那千古忠臣舍生取义，看那才子佳人的比翼双飞，或嗔或怨，让我在悲喜交加中恍然。

想有一间书房，飘着几缕墨香;想泡一杯清茶，细品人生百味;想见一些伟人，汲取思想精华。这是我的书卷情怀。
