高二英语作文：何如维持友谊【最新20篇】

My hometown is Guiyang, a small city in Southwest China, surrounded by

rolling green mountains. A river runs through it, with locust trees lining along

both banks. In Spring the locust trees all blossom at the same time, spreading

the delicate fragrance all around the city. In Summer there will be little boats

floating on the river, the laughter of children resonating with the sound of the

running water.

I was born and grew up in the city, and Im very affectionate to it. It

rains a lot, but the climate is very mild, neither too cold nor too hot

throughout the year. It is small and not very prosperous, but people there are

warm-hearted and straightforward. The life pace there is slow and peaceful. Its

a good place for spending hot summer days.

That is my hometown. I love her deeply from the bottom of my heart.

Raising the worlds largest kindness, than their parents. Is worth we use to cherish life, with a sincere heart to appreciate, with practical action to gratitude.

"The sheep have knelt milk, crow has righteousness". And people also should have the thought of filial, dont wait until the desire filial and affection, eventually left the life of a big allready tried, want to dont regret in the future, from now will be grateful parents from around things, return for parents.

As the century old ba jin said: "I am spinning silkworm mulberry leaves to eat." Silkworm paid, also obtained, get the praise and admiration of people.

Parents are the first teachers for our lives, from the moment a child is born, his life was poured parents endless love and blessing. Perhaps, parents cant give us the luxury of life, however, they gave the irreplaceable - life in a persons life

Parents for their children to hold up a piece of the sky of love, when you get hurt, cry, sad, sad, you can always come back here, enjoy the love of parents. Thanksgiving parents, even a small thing, can let them feel gratified. I remember CCTV has broadcast a public service ads: a little boy, struggling with a basin of water, naive said to his mother: "mom, wash feet!" Is such an AD today, still hit, its relieving feelings and moving heart, dont know how many people infected with. Many people whose tears, not to a lovely boy, also for that one to the deep love, and from the heart of gratitude to the mother.

世上最大的恩情，莫过于父母的养育之恩。值得我们用生命去珍爱，用至诚的心去感激，用切实行动去报恩。

“羊有跪乳之情，鸦有反哺之义”。而人也应有尽孝之念，莫等到欲尽孝而亲不在，终留下人生的一大遗撼，要想将来不后悔莫及，从现在就要从身边的小事去感恩父母，回报父母。回报也不一定非的是物质上的回报，更多的是精神上的、情感上的。就算是远渡重洋、留学海外，我们时刻要怀揣着一颗感恩的心。正如世纪老人巴金所说：“我是春蚕吃的桑叶就要吐丝。”春蚕付出了，也获得了，得到的却是人们的赞美与钦佩。

父母是我们人生的第一任老师，从一个孩子呱呱坠地的那一刻起，他的生命就倾注了父母无尽的爱与祝福。或许，父母不能给我们奢华的生活，但是，他们给予了一个人一生中不可替代的——生命

父母为子女撑起了一片爱的天空，当你受伤时，哭泣时，忧郁时，难过时，你可以随时回到这里，享受父母的爱。感恩父母，哪怕是一件微不足道的事，都能让他们感到欣慰。我记得央视曾播过的一个公益广告：一个小男孩，吃力的端着一盆水，天真的对妈妈说： “妈妈，洗脚!”就是这样的一部广告时至今日，仍在热播，它的感情动人心腑，不知感染了多少人。很多人为其流泪，不止为了可爱的男孩，也为了那一份至深的爱，和发自内心对母亲的感恩。

同学们，让我们学会感恩父母吧!用一颗感恩的心去对待父母，用一颗真诚的心去与父母交流，不要再认为父母是理所当然帮我们做任何事情的，他们把我们带到这美丽的世界，已经是足够的伟大，且将我们养育成人，不求回报，默默的为我们付出，我们就别再一味地索求他们的付出，学会感恩，怀着一颗感恩的心，去感恩父母吧!

making friends is a skill like many other skills. it improves with practice. if you want to meet people and make friends, you must be willing to take some actions. you must first go where there are people. you won’t make friends staying home alone. join a club or a group. taking with those who like the same things as you do is much easier. or join someone in some activities. many people are nervous when talking to new people. after all meeting strangers means facing the unknown. and it’s human nature to feel a bit uncomfortable about the unknown. most of our fears about dealing with new people come from doubts about ourselves. we imagine other people are judging us of finding us too tall or to short, too this or too that. but don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. try to accept yourself as you are and try to put the other person at ease. you’ll both feel more comfortable.

try to be self-comfident even if you don’t feel that way. when you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom, walk tall and straight, look directly at other people and smile.

if you see someone you like to speak to, say something . don’t wait for the other person to start a conversation.

just meeting someone new does not mean that you will make friends with that person-Friendshipis based on mutual liking and “give and take”. it takes time and effort to develop.

Friendship is a kind of human relations. It is a human instinct to make friends.When in trouble, we need friends to offer us help, support and encouragement. With success achieved, we also need friends to share our joys.

Friendship is also one of the greatest pleasures that we can enjoy. It implies loyalty, cordiality, sympathy, affection,and readiness to help. No man can make the most of his life without carefully and conscientiously striving to win the right kind of friends as he goes along.

Knowing how valuable friendship is, we should be very careful in making friends. Real friends are those who have good character, superior ability and kindness of heart. Real friends can share all our sorrows and double all our joys.While making friends, we should take care to select those who have such fine qualities. Then we should treat our friends with courtesy, be careful not to interfere unreasonably with them,and not to ridicule their proceedings. We should forgive their failures and do our best to help them. In short, when we have established friendship, we ought to cherish and treasure it by means of words and deeds. Only thus, can we develop real friendship and keep the sacred lamp of friendship burning all our life.

导语：尊敬老人一直是中华民族的传统美德，我们要多多照顾他们，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!

In the picture, an old man is sitting in the wheelchair, and a dog is serving him with milk and food. Ironically, it is the dog that takes the responsibility to attend the old man. We cannot help wondering where the old man’s grown up children are. It is they not the dog who should take good care of their old father.

The implied meaning of the picture is really provoking. It is quite true that in our society there are some grown-up children who treat their old parents badly. When their old parents are too old to take care of themselves, they often view them as a “burden” of their family life. They refuse either to support their aging parents financially or to look after them. No doubt, this immoral behavior of these grown-up children’s should be subject to social condemnation.

To respect the old has long been a traditional virtue of the Chinese people. We should always bear in mind that we are much indebted to our parents in that they not only gave us life but have done much to bringing us up. It is against conscience to escape from the responsibility to take care of our parents. Rather, we should pay back for the love and care of our parents by making their later years happy and enjoyable.

【参考译文】

在这幅画中，有一位老人坐在轮椅上, 一只狗正在给他送牛奶和食物。具有讽刺意义的是，是狗在承担待候老人的责职。我们不禁要发问老人的成年子女在哪里?好好照顾年迈的父亲应该是他们而不是狗。

这幅画的寓意真是发人深省。确实，在我们的社会里有些成年子女不能善待老父母。当老父年迈不能照顾自己时，他们经常把父母看作家庭生活的负担，不愿在经济上赡养或生活上照料老人。毫无疑问，成年子女这种不道德的行为应受到社会的谴责。

尊敬老人一直是中华民族的传统美德。我们应该永远牢记：我们应该对父母感恩，因为父母不仅给了我们生命，而且为抚育我们长大为我们付出了太多太多。逃避照顾的责任父母是违背良心的。我们应该让他们晚年生活快乐，回报他们对我们的关爱。

In every year the end of June, it is the beginning of my precious summer holiday. Last summer, I had a great holiday. Firstly, I spent only a week to finish all my summer homework.

When we meet difficulties, most of us will be feeling distressed, just like

without the storm”. Once I failed on the exam, I feel my world is over, I

couldn’t eat well, I just let my parents down, I was so guilty about it. My

teacher told me that the exam was not a big deal, I should forget it and kept

moving on. Since than, I work hard and trying to forget it. Now when I look back

烟里有一种对人身体不好的东西——尼古丁。

一枝香烟中的尼古丁可以毒死一只小白鼠，25g的香烟里的尼古丁可 毒死几头牛，40至60毫克纯尼古丁可以毒死一个人。

尼古丁的危害也是相当的大，它可以引起胃痛或其它胃病;还会使人引起心律不正诱发心脏病;严重的还可能引起癌症的爆发。

香烟是隐藏在我们身边的隐形杀手，是大家所应警惕的。

据科学家测定，烟草中含有数百种复杂的化学成分，大部分对人体有害，其中焦油、尼古丁、酚类、醇类、酸类、醛类等40种是有毒和有致癌作用的物质。烟在点燃后，所产生的烟雾，包含了烟草中所有的化学成分，同时比烟草本身又增加了一些有害物质，如一氧化碳和烟焦油等。这是因为除烟草本身外，在制成卷烟的过程中，要在原料中加入一些可可、甘草、糖、甘油、乙二醇等调味、湿润、产香、助燃物质。这些添加剂虽然本身无害，但在燃烧过程中却起了变化。例如，在鼠背涂上可可燃烧后产生的烟油，可长出皮肤瘤。甘草中的甘草酸在燃烧后，与其他成分化合，可生成有致癌作用的多环芳烃。糖与烟草一起燃烧后增加了焦油量，而糖燃烧后的产物是烟中的一个重要致癌物。甘油和乙二醇在燃烧后的物质，不但可能使吸烟者患膀胱癌，而且所产生的丙烯醛可抑制气管和纤毛分泌物从肺内排出，从而增加患气管炎和肺气肿的机会，并使患有这两种病的人病情加重。

烟对人的危害是多么大啊!所以我们不能吸烟。杜绝吸烟，造福后人。

MySpringFestival Last year’s Spring Festival is special. My uncle and my

aunt came back from Shanghai. My family were very happy to keep the Spring

Festival with them. And it was the most exciting festival of all the festivals.

On New Year’s Eve, my father and my uncle talked about their work together. My

mum did some cooking with my aunt Grandparents and I watched the New Year TV

It is a good idea to communicate and make friends with others. Nobody with a head on his shoulder is unwilling to have one or more friends.

First, you may learn to say hello to your classmates. With a smile on face, you are more attractive. The student sitting next to you is most likely to become your friend because your friend because there are more chances for you to carry on a conversation with him or her.

Secondly, you may try to ask questions. A good way to let other people know that you are interested in them is to ask about what they like and what they think.

But do remember: look at people while they are talking and concentrate on what they are saying.

Thirdly, try to be a friend in need. A warm-hearted man is easy to develop a friendship with others since he offers help to those in trouble.

go out with friends often, so we can communicate with others, it makes our mind

not focus on the computer games. I am not saying we should not play computer

Should students make friends on line ?

Some people say yes.The internet helps make many friends.Chatting on line，students can more freely express their feelings and opinions，and even get help with their foreign language studies .

Others，however，think students should not.They say making friends on line is a waste of time，which should be spent more meaningfully on study.Besides，some students get cheated on line .

It is my opinion that students should place their study，health and safety before other things.As for friendship，we can readily find it in our classmates and other people around us .

Last summer holiday, I took a trip to Yunnan. It is in the southern part of

our country .It is really a very beautiful place grand mountains, clean rivers

and kind people. Trees and flowers are seen everywhere. Every year there are

lots and lots of visitors.

Maybe you have heard about Shi Lin (stone forests). There are all kinds of

strange stones. Some of the small stones look like graceful girls; and the big

stones look like handsome men. Other stones look like cats, peafowls,

double-edged swords, mice, elephants and so on. Of all the stones, the stone

like a beautiful girl in a legend is the most famous .Its name is A Shima.

I also went to Li Jiang. The roads in that city are just like the Eight

Diagrams. Any road in the city goes to the center of Li Jiang. A river runs

through the whole city. If you go along the river, youll never get lost. There

are many ethnic minority people in Yunnan. They are very cordial. And they all

like singing and dancing. We danced with them around the campfire that night. I

really had a good time.

I like the elephants and fruits there best. An elephant is even taller than

me! I even mounted the elephant, though I was very afraid at first. But the

elephant seemed very friendly. I took some photos with it. The fruits there are

very fresh and delicious. They are very good for our health.

The trip to Yunnan impressed me greatly. I will never forget it.

It seems like a silly question, anyone in sane would give a hand to the elderly who fell. But in China, this question is becoming tricky. Many news report that there are some old people not just fell, they do it on purpose. Usually, they walk on a crowdy street, and pretend to faint or just lay down on the ground, intend to accuse the one who comes to help as a perpetrator and blackmail him/her for the treatment fee. Many people have fell for that and had to pay as there is no witness to prove their innocence. As for these negative news, people is afraid to help those old people in need, that makes some of them who are in real trouble could not get help in time. I once asked one of my friends: “Why the old people turn bad? If you see one in the street, would you help?” He said: “It is not the old people turn bad, it is the bad people turn old. I will video him/her to make a statement first, then decide if I would help.”

这似乎是个愚蠢的问题,任何清醒的人遇到跌倒的老人都会伸出援助之手。但在中国，这个问题变得棘手。很多新闻报道说有些老人不只是跌倒而已，他们是故意这么做的。通常他们会走到人潮涌动的街头，假装晕倒或者是直接躺在地上，想要指控那些来帮助他的人为肇事者，敲诈他们要治疗费。很多人都上当了，由于没有目击者证明他们的清白，他们被迫支付了费用。正因为这些负面新闻，人们害怕去帮助那些需要帮助的老人，也因此造成了那些真正有困难的老人没有得到及时的帮助。我曾经问我一个朋友：“为什么现在的老人变坏了?如果你在街上看到这样的老人你会帮助吗?”他说：“不是老人变坏了，是坏人变老了。我会先录像让他做一个声明，再决定是否帮助他。”

Its about one and a half month away from the Chinese New Year, It is a

festival celebrated by the Chinese people at the beginning of the lunar calendar

year.

As of the Chinese traditional customs, our parents and grandparents will

sweep every corner of the house and clean the windows until they gleam, and

washing clothes, buying foods and goods for the new years future use and

presents.

Children will be the most benefited group during this feast period. One

month before that, they are expecting the new clothes, delicious foods. The

firecrackers and the years allowance for their increased ages.

In recent years, with the rising of the standard of life, Chinese tend to

make various holiday plans to spend a different and meaningful new year. Such as

traveling abroad, or be absorbed in their hobbies, and even work.

Why today we try to spend our Chinese new year in such a different way? I

think thats because this is a era of free life and personality high-ranking.

Though there are still something traditional, our young generation is attempting

to make something new and suitable for ourselves. And we would like to take

something really worth to be cherished in our memorable treasures. Thats

amazing and wonderful!

Ill always keep in mind that the Chinese new year is a great feast

inherited from our ancestors, but if necessary, I would like to enjoy it by some

ways personal.

England is a nation in northwest Europe and the largest and most populous constituent country of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. Its inhabitants account for more than 83% of the total population of the United Kingdom, whilst the mainland territory of England occupies most of the southern two-thirds of the island of Great Britain and shares land borders with Scotland to the north and Wales to the west. Elsewhere, it is bordered by the North Sea, Irish Sea, Atlantic Ocean, and English Channel.

England was formed as a country during the 10th century and takes its name from the Angles — one of a number of Germanic tribes who settled in the territory during the 5th and 6th centuries. The capital city of England is London, which is the largest city in the British Isles, capital of the United Kingdom and one of the worlds Global Cities.

England ranks as one of the most influential and far-reaching centres of cultural development in the world;it is the place of origin of both the English language and the Church of England, was the historic centre of the British Empire, and the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution.

The Kingdom of England was an independent state until 1 May 1707, when the Acts of Union resulted in a political union with the Kingdom of Scotland to create the Kingdom of Great Britain.

Englands National Day is St Georges Day (Saint George being the patron saint), and it is celebrated annually on 23 April.

If life is a banquet, friendship is a flower. Friendship is to our life what water is to fish. If you are in trouble, friends will surround you and remove the barriers for you. Friendship plays an important role in our daily life. I’ll cherish my friendship forever.

When I was in Grade 3 in senior high school, because of serious headache, I couldn’t go to school. The doctor said that I must have a rest for a week. Once hearing that, I was anxious. The step of Gaokao approaches. The subjects are quite difficult. One night at eleven o’clock when we heard someone knock the door, mum opened the door. Li Ming came in .He walked towards my bed and asked my body. Then he said he would help me with the subjects. I didn’t agree with him .After a day’s classes he was very tired. But he insisted on helping me with the subjects. In the end, I agreed. Whether it was fine or not, he came punctually. I was deeply impressed by his kindness. Apart from helping me with the subjects, he also comforted me. And I felt better. As proverb says “If you tell your sorrow to your friends, your sorrow will be reduced by half.” I thought he had helped me a lot. If he had not helped me with the subjects at that time, I firmly believed I would have fallen behind others. I felt an immense gratitude to Li Ming. I was happy to have such a friend.

To sum up, a life without a friend is a life without sun. Friendship is one of the most valuable things in life. We should treasure our friendship.

During the winter holiday, I was very happy because of the Chinese new year

and other reasons. During the holiday, my parents and I went back to my hometown

in the countryside in Hebei Province. I had not come back for several years, so

that I was so surprised to find that great changes had taken place in this small

village in the past years. Almost every family in the village had color TV set

and some of them had computers. Many families had their houses newly built or

rebuilt. Previously,could be seen everywhere, but now they have taken on an

entirely newlook. Motorcycles or even private cars are not luxuries any

more.

One of the villagers proudly told me that he and some other villagers were

going to join a tour and travel abroad. Previously, the villagers were busy in

their farm work all the year round, but now they have much more time and money

to relax or entertain. Traveling has become a new trend among villagers. Seeing

these amazing changes, my father said that he would go back to my hometown as

soon as he retired. As for me, I strongly supported his idea.

The Chong Yang Festival is celebrated on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, and it is as such known as the Double Ninth Festival.

Climbing mountains: On the Double Ninth Festival, people customarily climb mountains, appreciate chrysanthemum flowers, drink chrysanthemum wine, and eat double-ninth cakes. The Double Ninth Festival is also the Old Men Festival. Old people are especially meant to improve their health by taking part in the activities on the day of the festival.

Origins: The festival began as early as the Warring States Period (475 - 221 BC). According to the yin/yang dichotomy that forms a basis to the Chinese world view, yin represents the elements of darkness and yang represents life and brightness. The number nine is regarded as yang. The ninth day of the ninth month is a double yang day, hence the name Chong Yang Festival. (Chong means repeat in Chinese.) The ninth month also heralds the approach of winter. It is a time when the living need warm clothing, and filial Chinese sons and daughters extended this to make the festival a time for providing winter clothes for their ancestors. The Double Ninth Festival, therefore, also became an occasion to visit the graves of dead family members. Clothes made of paper would then be burnt as offerings.

Family get-togethers: The Double Ninth Festival is also a time for family get-togethers. It is an occasion to remember one‘s ancestors, the sacrifices they made and the hardships they underwent. Often, family outings are organised during which people search to renew their appreciation of nature and to reaffirm their love and concern for family members and close friends.
