+ 加入清单We often say that the earth is our homeland and human society comes from
nature. Therefore, I think our society is a part of nature. People should live
harmoniously with nature. All the materials we need to live with come from
nature, but we should also repay the nature, rather than blindly solicit. For
example, we should plant more trees and take actions to protect the environment.
In addition, we have to control population. Due to excessive population growth,
human beings require much more natural resources than before, which lead to
excessive pressure on nature. In order to long-term development, the population
growth must be controlled. We all come from nature which is our homeland, so we
must try best to protect it.

things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest,in turn,to go and look at a
pear tree that was a great distance away.
The first son went in the winter,the second in the spring,the third in
summer,and the youngest son in the fall.
When they had all gone and come back,he called them together to describe
what they had seen.
The first son said that the tree was ugly,bent,and twisted. The second son
said no - it was covered with green buds and full of promise.
The third son disagreed,he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so
sweet and looked so beautiful,it was the most graceful thing he had ever
seen.
The last son disagreed with all of them;he said it was ripe and drooping
with fruit,full of life and fulfillment.
The man then explained to his sons that they were all right,because they
had each seen but one season in the tree‘s life. He told them that you cannot
judge a tree,or a person,by only one season,and that the essence of who they are
- and the pleasure,joy,and love that come from that life - can only be measured
at the end,when all the seasons are up.
If you give up when it‘s winter,you will miss the promise of your
spring,the beauty of your summer,fulfillment of your fall. Don’t let the pain of
one season destroy the joy of all the rest.

+ 加入清单When we read newspapers, our attention is always attracted by increasing
unemployment rate in young graduates who are leaving college. In my opinion,
there are many causes for this disquieting phenomenon and we should try to solve
the problem.
Most companies would rather employ a low-educational specialized worker
than a this-years graduate from a well-known university. For companies, they are
more likely to choose the candidates with rich working experience. Apparently
enough, the training for young graduates usually costs them a large quantity of
time and money. In addition, the current education system brings on a lot of
bookworms who are adept in theoretical but not practical knowledge. Therefore,
it is hard for those graduates to complete the practical assignments
successfully and smoothly. This is one major reason why many graduates find it
to find suitable jobs.
An un-mandatory retirement age is another factor leading to the youth
unemployment for college graduates. Along with the improving of working
efficiency, proficient employees with rich and extensive working experience get
retired at a much later age. In this case, for young graduates, there are fewer
chances to get access to the jobs taken up by the older and more
experienced.

things on campus life all the time, so they have the motivation to study hard.
When they come to university, they begin to slow down their pace to study and
waste their youth.
Nowadays, a lot of college students lose motivation to move on when they
come to the new chapter of their life. Campus life seems to be relaxed and a
place to free themselves. Without the supervision from parents and teachers,
they choose to lose themselves in the computer games or all kinds of
parties.
So someone made the comment on campus life as the nursing house, which
satirized the students who wasted their precious time and youth to accomplish
nothing. It is the important stage for them to learn professional knowledge and
master skills, so as to be competitive and find their own place in the
world.
For a wise student, they make the plans and improve themselves all the
time. If we live the life as the old people in the nursing house, then it is
kind of committing suicide for a young person.

warm motherly love.
The sea is like a poem; it jumps; like a picture, rich in meaning; and like

filled with rage, overwhelming, to sail the boat overturned. In my mind, the sea
is blue world, is also the cradle of life. Pregnant with many free and small
life. The sea is so mysterious, so charming!
Now the sea has changed. The sea is no longer clear, it becomes muddy and
dirty. Washed up on the beach, left is no longer alive and kicking the fish
shrimp, instead of the piles of rubbish, but also mixed with a lot of dead fish
shrimp, stinking. Why is that? Its all because of us. When people admire the
beauty of the seaside, they throw the foul rubbish into the sea. There are also
people living on the beach, the toilet drain pipe to the bottom of the sea.
Whats worse is that the factory waste water flows into the sea in large stocks,
and the sea is dyed in a strange color. Led to the birth of a lot of lack of
brains, low IQ infants, our next generation - bright eyes [voice tender], the
face of the next generation of red, will never see the beautiful blue sea.
Someone once did an experiment. He compared a basin of water to the ocean,
and dropped a drop of ink into the sea. Immediately, the ink slowly spread out,
became shallow and disappeared. The sea water was almost as clean as ever. If
the ink kept dropping, the color of the sea would be deeper and darker, and
eventually it would become a basin of black water. 6 billion people on the earth
produce large quantities of living waste water and industrial pollution every
day. Like ink, it has been injected into the clear sea water. It has become a
polluted lake.
To the health of our human beings, to see the beautiful blue sea for our
children and grandchildren. Let us act now, love the ocean as much as we love
life, and love the common blue home of mankind.
篇15:关于元宵节英语

+ 加入清单There are many different beliefs about the origin of the Lantern Festival.
But one thing for sure is that it had something to do with celebrating and
cultivating positive relationship between people, families, nature and the
higher beings they believed were responsible for bringing/returning the light
each year.
One legend tells us that it was a time to worship Taiyi, the God of Heaven
in ancient times. The belief was that the God of Heaven controlled the destiny
of the human world. He had sixteen dragons at his beck and call and he decided
when to inflict drought, storms, famine or pestilence upon human beings.
Beginning with Qinshihuang, the first emperor to unite the country, all the
emperors ordered splendid ceremonies each year. The emperor would ask Taiyi to
bring favorable weather and good health to him and his people. Emperor Wudi of
the Han Dynasty directed special attention to this event. In 104 BC, he
proclaimed it as one of the most important celebrations and the ceremony would
last throughout the night. They clean it all up in the morning.
Another legend associates the Lantern Festival with Taoism. Tianguan is the
Taoist god responsible for good fortune. His birthday falls on the 15th day of
the first lunar month. It is said that Tianguan likes all types of
entertainment, so followers prepare various kinds of activities during which
they pray for good fortune.
Yet another common legend dealing with the origins of the Lantern Festival
speaks of a beautiful bird that flew down to earth from heaven, which was hunted
and killed by some villagers. This angered the Jade Emperor in Heaven because
the bird was his favorite one. Therefore, he planned a storm of fire to destroy
the village on the 15th lunar day. The Jade Emperors daughter heard of this
plan, and warned the villagers of her father’s plan to destroy their village.
The village was in turmoil because nobody knew how should they escape their
imminent destruction.
However, a wise man from another village suggested that every family should
hang red lanterns around their houses, set up bonfires on the streets, and
explode firecrackers on the 14th, 15th, and 16th lunar days. This would give the
village the appearance of being on fire to the Jade Emperor. On the 15th lunar
day, troops sent down from heaven whose mission was to destroy the village saw
that the village was already ablaze, and returned to heaven to report to the
Jade Emperor. Satisfied, the Jade Emperor decided not to burn down the village.
From that day on, people celebrate the anniversary on the 15th lunar day every
year by carrying red lanterns on the streets and exploding firecrackers and
fireworks.
There are many stories on how this festival was created. One other story is
about a maid. In the Han Dynasty, Mr. Eastern was a favorite advisor of the
emperor. One winter day, he went to the garden and heard a little girl crying
and getting ready to jump into a well to commit suicide. Mr. Eastern stopped her
and asked why. She said she was a maid in the emperors palace and her name was
Yuan-Xiao.
She never had the chance to meet her family after she started worked at the
palace. She missed them so much every 12th lunar month. If she couldnt have the
chance to show her filial piety in this life, she would rather die. Mr. Eastern
promised her to find a way so she could reunion with her family. Mr. Eastern
left the palace and set up a fortune-telling stall on the street and disguised
himself as a fortuneteller. Because of his reputation, many people asked for
their fortunes.
But every one got the same prediction - a severe fire accident on the 15th
lunar day. The rumor spread quickly. Everyone was worried about the future and
asked Mr. Eastern for help. Mr. Eastern said, "On the 13th lunar day, the God of
Fire will send a fairy lady in red to burn down the city. If you see a lady in
red wearing green pants riding a black horse on that day, you should ask for her
mercy." On that day, Yuan-Xiao pretended to be the red fairy lady. When people
asked for her help, she said, "Im the messenger of the God of Fire and came to
check on the city and Im going to set up fire on 15th. This is an order from
Jade Emperor. He will watch from the heavens.
I will give you a copy of the imperial decree from the God of Fire. You
should go to ask your emperor to find a way out." After she left, people went to
the palace to show the emperor the decree which reads "The capital city is in
trouble. Fire burns on the palace, and fire from Heaven burns all night long on
the 15th." The emperor of Han Dynasty was very shocked. He called and asked Mr.
Eastern for advice. After pondering for a while, Mr. Eastern said, "I heard that
the God of Fire likes to eat Tang-Yuan (Sweet dumpling). Does Yuan-Xiao often
cook Tang-Yuan for you? On the 15th lunar day, let Yuan-Xiao make Tang-Yuan.
Your Majesty will take charge of the worshipping ceremony and you will give
an order to every house to prepare Tang-Yuan to worship the God of Fire at the
same time. Also, deliver another order to ask every house in the city to hang
red lantern and explode fire crackers. Lastly, everyone in the palace and people
outside the city should carry their lanterns on the street to watch the lantern
decoration and fireworks. If everything goes this way, the Jade Emperor would be
deceived.
Then everyone can avoid the fire accident." The emperor happily followed
the plan. Lanterns were everywhere in the capital city on the night of the 15th
lunar day. People were walking on the street. Fire crackers kept making lots of
noise. It looked like the entire city was on fire. Yuan-Xiaos parents went into
the palace to watch the lantern decorations, and Yuan-Xiao made a big lantern
and wrote her name on the lantern. They happily reunited together after her
parents called her name. Everybody was safe during the night. The emperor of Han
Dynasty had a new order that people should do the same thing every year. Since
Yuan-Xiao cooked the best Tan-Yuan, people called the day Yuan-Xiao
Festival.
Young people were chaperoned in the streets in hopes of finding love.
Matchmakers acted busily in hopes of pairing couples. The brightest lanterns
were symbolic of good luck and hope. As time has passed, the festival no longer
has such implications.
Those who do not carry lanterns often enjoy watching informal lantern
parades. In addition to eating tangyuan (simplified Chinese: 汤圆; traditional
Chinese: 湯圓; pinyin: tāngyuán), another popular activity at this festival is
guessing lantern riddles (which became part of the festival during the Tang
Dynasty), which often contain messages of good fortune, family reunion, abundant
harvest, prosperity and love.

+ 加入清单Mooncakes are to Mid-Autumn Festival what mince pies are to Christmas. The seasonal round cakes traditionally have a sweet filling of lotus seed paste or red bean paste and often have one or more salted duck eggs in the center to represent the moon. And the moon is what this celebration is all about. Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month,it is the time when the moon is said to be at its brightest and fullest.
There are two legends which claim to explain the tradition of eating mooncakes. One Tang Dynasty myth holds that the Earth once had 10 suns circling it. One day all 10 suns appeared at once,scorching the planet with their heat. It was thanks to a skillful archer named Hou Yi that the Earth was saved. He shot down all but one of the suns. As his reward,the Heavenly Queen Mother gave Hou Yi the Elixir of Immortality,but she warned him that he must use it wisely. Hou Yi ignored her advice and,corrupted by fame and fortune,became a tyrannical leader. Chang-Er,his beautiful wife, could no longer stand by and watch him abuse his power so she stole his Elixir and fled to the moon to escape his angry wrath. And thus began the legend of the beautiful woman in the moon,the Moon Fairy.
The second legend has it that during the Yuan Dynasty,an underground group led by Zhu Yuan Zang was determined to rid the country of Mongolian dominance. The moon cake was created to carry a secret message. When the cake was opened and the message read,an uprising was unleashed which successfully routed the Mongolians. It happened at the time of the full moon,which,some say,explains why mooncakes are eaten at this time. Mooncakes are usually stamped with Chinese characters indicating the name of the bakery and the type of filling used. Some bakeries will even stamp them with your family name so that you can give personalised ones to friends and family. They are usually presented in boxes of four which indicate the four phases of the moon. Traditional mooncakes are made with melted lard,but today vegetable oil is more often used in the interests of health. Mooncakes are not for the diet-conscious as they are loaded with calories. The best way to wash down one of these sticky cakes is with a cup of Chinese tea,especially Jasmine or Chrysanthemum tea,which aids the digestion.
中秋节吃月饼就像西方人圣诞节吃百果馅饼一样,是必不可少的。圆圆的月饼中通常包有香甜的莲子馅或是红豆馅,馅的中央还会加上一个金黄的咸鸭蛋黄来代表月亮。而月亮正是中秋节庆祝的主题。每年农历8月15日人们一起庆祝中秋,据说这一天的月亮是一年中最亮最圆的。
关于吃月饼这个传统的来历有两个传说。一个是唐朝的神话故事,说的是当时地球被10个太阳包围着。有一天10个太阳同时出现在天空中,巨大的热量几乎把地球烤焦了。多亏一位名叫后羿的神箭手射下了9个太阳,地球才被保住。为了奖励后羿,王母娘娘赐给后羿一种长生不老药,但是王母警告他必须正当使用。然而后羿没有理会王母娘娘的警告,他被名利冲昏了头脑,变成了一个暴君。后羿美丽的妻子嫦娥对他的暴行再也不能袖手旁观,于是她偷走了后羿的长生不老药,飞到月亮上逃避后羿的狂怒。从此就有了关于月宫仙子嫦娥,这个月亮上的美丽女人的传说。
第二个传说讲的是在元朝,朱元璋领导的起义军计划起义来摆脱蒙古族的统治。他们用月饼来传递密信。掰开月饼就可以找到里面的密信,起义军通过这种方式成功的发动了起义,赶走了元朝的统治者。这场起义发生在八月十五之时,于是中秋节吃月饼的习俗便在民间传开来。
