In China, students learn a lot of necessary lessons before they finish high

school. They can choose the special class as they go to college. But in the

western countries, the students need to take part in many special lessons to get

enough credits, since they are in middle school. Though some action has been

taken to improve students level, still many schools ignore it and they focus to

let students get high marks in the exams. The teenagers need to learn some

practical skills, such as swimming, which can save their lives when they are

stuck in the deep water. Students are always passionate about the special

lesson.

Life is like a box of chocolates

-----The review of Forrest Gump

Forrest Gump is a famous film which won a high reputation , it’s tell us a story of a low IQ boy’s unexpected and legendary life. In the film, Forrest’s IQ only had 75 lower than normal people, but he graduated from the university,participated in the Vietnam War, took part in Table Tennis Competition in China as diplomatic envoy, became a millionaire...

“If God intended everybody to be the same, hed have given us all braces on our legs. “ God is so fair. Forrest met lots of accidents and every accident fortunately achieve him. I think nothing is predestined except death. Just like Gumps mother did not know that she will be his mother,just like Forrest did not know that God gave him only 75 IQ,just like Lt. Dan Taylor did not know he had to endure the pain of losing legs...

Tom Hanks who played Forrest Gump said “our destiny is only defined by how we deal with the chance element to our life.” When we face our life,maybe we should have this preparation---“Life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what youre going to get.”

English is one of my best subjects and I started learning English when I

was ten years old. But at the very beginning, listening seemed a little

difficult for me. So I have been doing a lot of listening practice, such as

listening to tapes, watching English TV programs. And I found it really helped a

lot. In fact, there are some more helpful ways to learn English well. For

example, I enjoy singing English songs and I want to join an English club or

find a pen pal from English-speaking countries. I believe that nothing is

impossible if you put your heart into it。

Fathers Day is here, and my heart is full of mixed feelings. Because I

think of my dad. At the same time, I also remembered a song "Grateful Heart", I

believe everyone has heard it. Grateful heart, accompany you. Grateful heart,

reminds me of my father. This song expresses my fathers love for us. He raised

us. We must know how to love. In the future, I will repay his kindness of

upbringing.

The word "father" has two words. It is so familiar to us, so kind.

My father wakes up early and goes to bed late every day so that our two

brothers and sisters can live a happy life. Once, when I was sick, it was in the

middle of the night and I developed a high fever. I felt hot all over and my

hands and feet were cold, which made me very uncomfortable. At this time, Dad

seemed to have noticed something unusual about me. So he asked me, "Son, whats

wrong with you?" I said sadly: "Im very uncomfortable, very uncomfortable." Dad

touched my forehead and said, "Son, you have a fever, but, now...now is

Midnight." After a while.

Dad is carrying a basin of water. Then, put a wet hand towel on my

forehead. My forehead suddenly became a lot cooler. Thats it, my dad keeps

changing my handkerchiefs like this. Not as hot as before, but still hot.

When I woke up, I was lying in the hospital bed on an IV. I found that my

grandmother was beside me. I asked: "Grandma, where is Dad?" Grandma kindly said

to me: "Your dad just went out. Your dad has been by your side to take care of

you most of the night. You have to be grateful!" I nodded.

I know that my father has been very busy in recent years, but no matter how

busy he is, he still finds time to take care of me and care about me. These left

a deep impression on my memory.

Finally, I want to wish Dad, and to all fathers in the world, a Happy

Fathers Day.

篇14:孝道传承作文1500字

全文共 1676 字

“百善孝为先,孝敬无底线”,这句话爸爸妈妈从小就讲给我听。并教育我,孝敬父母,尊敬长辈,是做人的本分和道理,更是我们家世代相传的家风。

记得我刚上一年级的时候,班队课上,老师问我们:“谁能告诉我,你们家的家风是什么?”同学们面面相视,默不作声,都以为老师提错了问题。只有我大胆的举起了手,老师让我回答。我站起来大声答道:“百善孝为先,孝敬无底线,这是我家的家风。”我很流利的把这句话背了出来,老师表扬了我,当时我心里像喝了蜜一样甜。

接着老师又问我:“你说说,孝敬具体表现在哪些事上呢?”我想起爸爸妈妈每次去看望奶奶,外公外婆他们时,总会买甲鱼,河虾,营养品,有时还买新衣服。想起了这些,我马上回答:“孝敬甲鱼,河虾,营养品,还有新衣服。”

顿时安静的教室里像炸开了锅,同学们哄堂大笑起来。我有些丈二和尚摸不着头脑,身体一热,脸一下子涨得通红。小小的心脏好像跳到了喉咙口,张着嘴咽住了。恨不得一下子能钻进地缝里去,马上消失。

老师严肃地叫大家安静,然后用平静的语气对我们说:“我不明白你们为什么要笑,如果你们觉得这样孝敬长辈是一件好笑的事,只能说明你们的爸爸妈妈没有教育你们孝敬。只不过你们现在还是孩子,这些物质上的孝敬,还不太实际。你们应该从日常生活中去敬孝心,还有要用优秀的成绩去敬孝心。今天回家后,问问自己的爸爸妈妈,你们孝敬父母需要做些什么?”

放学回家后,我忙把课堂上发生的一切说给爸爸听,爸爸摸着我的头,语重心长地对我说:“孝敬不光是物质,还在精神上,孝敬父母有很多种,比如:你帮爸爸妈妈干一些力所能及的事;吃饭的时候帮爸爸妈妈盛碗饭;爸爸妈妈累了,你帮着洗个脚敲个背;节日的时候,你做份礼物送给爸爸妈妈。只要你对爸爸妈妈拥有一颗真正感恩的心,孝敬在任何时间任何地方都能做到,孝敬就这么简单,明白了吗?”我点点头,想起了爸爸妈妈平时对长辈们的所作所为,不正是这样吗?特别是我妈妈,更是一位发自肺腑,用行动来孝敬父母的人。难怪奶奶老夸她说;“我的媳妇比女儿还亲。”每当这个时候,妈妈总会拉着奶奶的手说:“您老是我家的宝,您健康长寿是我们做小辈的福气,孝敬您是我应该的。”

爸爸妈妈还常常对我说,人不能忘本,对父母的养育之恩要尽自己最大的能力去报答,要时时刻刻做到敬孝。我把爸爸妈妈的话铭记在心,也以他们作为我学习的榜样。

爸爸很孝顺奶奶,处处顺着奶奶的心思做事,从来不顶撞,是个出了名的大孝子。有一次奶奶生病住院了,爸爸妈妈关了店门,日夜守候在医院,同病房的人,羡慕的不得了。爸爸把我送到阿姨家借住,让阿姨接我上下学。可我睡不惯阿姨家的床,心里开始埋怨。打电话给爸爸妈妈,让他们回家陪我,还在电话里说了一句恨话:“你们不要我,为什么要生下我?”说完挂了电话。两个小时后,爸爸出现在我面前。只见他满脸胡子,头发又干又乱,眼皮鼓鼓的,眼睛里充满了血丝,一副憔悴没睡醒的样子,我一下子心疼起爸爸来。心想:一定是这几天为了奶奶的病,爸爸吃不香睡不着,才变成这样的。爸爸没有说什么,只是静静地陪着我坐了一会儿,然后把我接回家。

晚上,爸爸给我讲起他小时候的事。爸爸说:“小时候,我们家比别人家还要苦。因为你爷爷去世的早,靠你奶奶那么瘦小的一个女人,要抚养我和你大伯长大,那是多么不容易啊!所以你奶奶每天拼命干活,起早贪黑,辛勤劳动,可换来的还是吃不饱,穿不暖的日子。有一次,我病得很严重,医生说我是营养不良造成的。别人都以为我活不下去了,要死了。你奶奶急得没办法,瞒着我们偷偷去卖血。换回糖票买红糖给我补身体,我才活了下来。”说着爸爸的声音哽咽了,眼里闪着泪光,爸爸很少落泪,这天晚上爸爸哭了,伤心地哭了。

第二天是星期六,我早早起了床,跟爸爸去医院看望奶奶。看着有气无力躺在病床上的奶奶,我“哇”一声哭了出来。奶奶表情痛苦,无力地拉过我的手,轻轻地说:“囡囡,别哭,这几天委屈你呀。”我忙摇头,紧紧握着奶奶的手说:“奶奶,你快好起来,以后我要孝敬您和爸爸妈妈。”

“百善孝为先,孝敬无底线”,这是我家的家风。从爸爸妈妈的言传身教,我受到了很好的教育,一定会将它传承下去。

Every city has many theme parks, the local people like to go to the park for a walk or take some exercise. In China, most parks are free, people can go there without charge, but still some other parks need to charge. People urge that all the parks should be free, while I think it will do harm to the park.

每个城市都有很多主题公园,本地人喜欢去公园散步或者锻炼。在中国,大部分公园免费,人们无需给钱就可以进入公园,但是仍然有一些公园需要付费。人们要求所有的公园应该免费,然而我觉得这样会对公园有害。

One the one hand, opening the parks for free encourages people to go to the park for entertainment. Most people have the habit to take a walk after dinner, so it can help them to keep their bodies healthy. The children can have fun with their friends, too. The parks provide people so much fun, so it is good for people to go to there for free.

一方面,免费开放公园鼓励着人们去公园娱乐。很多人有饭后散步的习惯,这样有助于让他们保持身体的健康。孩子们也可以和他们的朋友找乐子。公园给人们提供了很多的乐趣,因此免费开放公园对人们是有好处的。

On the other hand, too many people go to the parks will do harm to the environment. Some people will throw away their trash away, the environment will be polluted. What’s more, the crowed people will make people have less space for them to have fun.

另一方面,过多的人去公园会对环境造成伤害。一些人会随处扔垃圾环境会被污染。而且,成群的人会让人们享有很少的空间来娱乐。

For me, I think it is not good to open the parks for free, it needs to control the number of people, so we can protect the environment.

对于我来说,我觉得免费开放公园是不好的,要控制人群的数量,这样我们才能保护环境。

家就是一个人在点着一盏灯在等你。

——三毛

亲情是世界上的一种花朵,没有东西比他更美丽,更温柔,人生真正的幸福和快乐,浸透在亲密无间的家庭关系中。家是每个人心灵永恒的归宿,家是每个人躲避风雨的港湾。

乌鸦因为通体漆黑、面貌丑陋,常在人去世之前鸣叫,常被人们视为不祥之鸟,遭到人们的普遍厌恶。可正是这一种遭人嫌恶的鸟,却有着我们人类称道赞美的美德。据说乌鸦在母亲的哺育下长大后,当母亲年老体衰,不能觅食或是双目失明飞不动的时候它的子女就会四处飞行觅食,挟回来嘴对嘴喂给母亲口中,用此回报母亲的哺育之恩,并且从不会感到厌恶,一直到老乌鸦去世,或是再也吃不下东西为止。于是就有了“乌鸦反哺”这个说法。动物尚且知道孝顺父母,我们人类更应该崇尚孝道

孟郊的《游子吟》写出了母子相依为命的骨肉亲情,写出了游子临行前母亲细细的疼爱,短短的三十个字,千百年来拨动了无数读者的心弦。朱自清的《背影》里那个蹒跚的老父亲,送走的是儿子,送不走的是牵挂,又不知不知道引发了多少读者的共鸣和感动。

百善孝为先。孝顺父母是我们中华民族的传统美德,是我们炎黄子孙的精神食粮,我们有道德有义务传承下去,让世世代代去传颂、去赞美。我们从蹒跚学步,再到如今的亭亭玉立、玉树临风,都是父母一手扶持,才有了我们的今天。他们为我们的成长付出了多少个不眠的夜晚,付出了多少精力和金钱。他们也曾为我们的无理取闹而无奈,为我们的叛逆而伤心,更为了我们的生病和受伤而揪心。而他们的付出,从不要求回报,只要你在他们老了的时候,能回家看看,让他们不要感到孤单就够了。这是多么伟大而又无私的爱。这份爱我们无以报答,寸草的心意怎么报答的了太阳的光辉呢!

孝顺父母,时不我待。让我们拿出我们的真心去回报父母的恩情。让孝道世世代代传承下去,让孝义永在人心!

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!
