关于孝道的英文作文(通用20篇)

现在，就像人们越来越怀念《卧虎藏龙》和《九岁暖席》的孝道一样，也发现社会似乎偏离了轨道，越来越不孝。

孝和不孝的界限从来没有被衡量过，但它始终屹立在人们的心中，像一个与生俱来的标杆。但是可能太长了。生锈了，摇摇欲坠。难怪很多人忽略了。我一度坚信，孝道的消失只是娱乐媒体的一种夸张，引起了人们越来越分散的关注，然后在父母的悉心呵护下自然而然地成长起来。然而，直到今天，当我们身边的人开始上演所谓的“抄家之战”时，他们突然醒悟，不孝。它已经变得像一场大流行的感冒，在社会的每个角落广泛传播，但很容易复发。

与物欲横流的社会相比，《诗经》充满了理想的乌托邦，就像陶渊明的世外桃源。两者的理想在于对“黄毛下垂，可以自得其乐”的描述。这是一个温暖的社会，所有的人都是善良的，所有的东西都是自然无污染的，连空气都闻起来很香，亲切流动的东西都是爱的力量。生活在其中，小孩子和老人自然被自信呵护。形成鲜明对比的是，在社会保障体系日益完善的今天，孩子成了学习的机器，老人成了免费的保姆和经济来源。赤裸裸的不是爱情，是利益纷争。也许这有点极端，但这是不可避免的社会弊病。究其重点，犯罪不在社会管理，而是人们的价值取向出了问题，它只是一股巨大而微妙的力量，即使是强大的社会管理也无法逆转。

怎样才能让社会重回正轨？由于强烈的社会责任感，我开始像某些人一样焦虑不安，坐不住睡不着，甚至嘴里有气泡。但是，看着一群自得其乐的人，我心里还是暗暗感叹，可是我突然明白，只要自己擅长自己，还不够吗？当你到了父母的年龄，别忘了给他们爱和关心，就像他们现在给我的一样。但我很清楚，这绝不是等价交换，因为父母给我们的远远超过我们能回馈的，毫无疑问。但是我们还是要尽力。

我是一个不善于表达感情的人，但也不错。孝顺不孝不需要软软华丽的字眼，只存在于日复一日的关心和放弃中。不然我就不是不孝之人了。

他今年三十又五，本是个农村人，大学毕业后参加了公考，就顺理成章做了市府的一名科员。年轻人谦虚，肯干，得人看待。前几年在领导的好心撮合下，他和一个城里的姑娘结了婚。鲤鱼跃龙门，抱得美人归，村里人羡慕啊，见了他父母就会忍不住好说几句。父母有时也觉得脸上有光，别人笑问，他们也跟着笑。

这小俩口日子也过得拘束，工资本来就不高，还扛着房贷车贷，一年到头都忙忙忙。结婚以前，他还逢年过节回个家，婚后就彻底顾不上了，各种各样的大事小事，总能让他打消回家的念头。他有时候甚至是在找个回家的理由，可总有足够的理由让他回不了家，眼看着孩子都能满地跑了，见了自己的爷爷奶奶却不太认识，他心里不是滋味儿。

那一次，他终于忍不住了，和妻子商量，打算把父母从乡下接到城里一起过年。妻子自是知书达理，不然也不会看上他这农村小子，不仅同意了，还举双手赞成。妻子是独生的女儿，每到过年岳父岳母就会连家也搬过来和他们一起住。岳父母也不只一次提议他把父母接来过年，他总是支支吾吾。

这一次，他终于把父母接来了。父母进门后并没有显得拘谨，他们气定神闲和岳父母家长里短，还得到了小孙子一个热情的拥抱。大年夜，一家老小有说有笑，其乐融融。包饺子，吃年饭，看春晚，发红包，放烟花，好不热闹。

这是他结婚后第一次和父母过年，看到眼前这无比温馨的景象，正在收拾餐具的他偷偷抹起了眼泪，这一切被心细如尘的妻子看在眼里，她拍了拍他的肩膀，笑了。

年很快就过完了，第二天大年初一，岳父母就回了自己的家，以往都要住到正月十五的，可房子本来就小，再说他和妻子也照顾不过来，岳父母自然知道女儿女婿的不容易。

岳父母一走，父亲就开始在房里转来转去，坐立不安，实在难堪的时候，就悄悄凑到他耳边问：“哪里有厕所？”他一时好笑，厕所不就在房里吗？他指了指座便器。可父亲却摇头了，不是这个，这个他用不了。

当他开车带着父亲转了半个小时才找到公厕的时候，那个箭一样冲出去的背影却让他再也笑不出来。母亲则是整晚整晚的失眠，乡下人睡惯了炕头，一时间挪到那软不溜球的床上，心里不踏实，不踏实了就会失眠，老人失眠了会把一切都表现在脸上，这一切，他看在眼里，疼在心里。

肆

好容易熬到了初五，他也该上班了，父母几乎是迫不及待的说出来，送他们回家。那一天，他忍者不舍把父母送了回去。可一进家门，家里那久无人烟冷锅冷灶荒凉景象却成了他心里抹之不去的疤，曾几何时，这里是那么的热闹。

从那以后，父母每到过年前几天就催着他回来接他们，过了年没几天，又急不可耐的催着他把他们往回送。每一过年，他都要在这种团圆的温馨和和对父母的愧疚当中翻来覆去一回。时间久了，他就找到了离家里最近的公厕，也给父母买了一张比炕还硬实的床。

有一年除夕，父亲喝多了酒，终于向他说了实话，这几年来，他们实在是一天也过不惯城里的生活，也不需要儿子来给他们张罗年夜饭，只是一年到头都见不到儿子，他们念想啊，就是再过不惯，也要来城里和儿子住几天......

伍

又是一年春来到，这一年，还没等他去接，轻车熟路的父母就已经来到了他的家里。他却似有心事，没有太多的喜感。想来想去，他终于狠了狠心，把刚进门十几个小时的父母又不远数百公里送回了乡下。

往乡下走的时候，他买了很多食材，很多烟花，把东西放下，就给父母说一句:“把家里收拾暖和，我们大年初一就回来，今年，我们要回家过年”。当日，他连饭都没吃就返回了市里，陪岳父岳母吃完了年夜饭。第二天一大早，就带上老婆孩子奔向了乡下父母的家。在一旁送行的岳父母看出了他的心思，眼里是泛着晶莹的泪花。

路上，他问妻子请了多长的假？妻子说十五天，他转头笑着说他也是......

“百善孝为先。”孝顺老人是我们中华民族的传统美德。从古到今：黄香温席、卧冰求鲤、鹿乳奉亲、换肾救母、背母求学……这样的孝亲故事数不胜数。不仅如此，我们身边也正在发生一件件孝敬长辈的感人故事。我的外婆就是这样的人。

每当双休日的时候，妈妈经常带我去看望外婆。外婆已经年近七旬，两鬓已有几缕银丝，皱纹早已不知不觉地爬满了她的脸。但是每个双休日，外婆都会带上太祖母爱吃的东西，千里迢迢搭公交车去看探望她。太祖母已经是九旬老人了，满头的银发，脸上布满了一条条深深的皱纹，一笑起来一脸的褶子，满口的牙齿几乎掉光了。一见有人去她家，她驼背，弯腰，步履蹒跚地向前移动。一边走一边说：“你们是谁啊！干什么来，来我家偷东西呀……”后面支支吾吾的，凭谁都听不懂。因为太祖母患有老年痴呆症，所以她不认识人。大家只能无奈地摇摇头。可外婆却丝毫不介意，每次一见太祖母，不管是否理睬她，外婆都走过去拉住她的手，亲切地叫道：“姆妈！”而太祖母就呆呆地看了外婆一眼，渐渐地脸上露出一丝微笑，高兴地说：“三媳妇你来了。”可见得外婆经常来服侍她，已经在太祖母的心里深深地扎下了根。

我也常常跟外婆去看望外祖母。每次到了太祖母家，外婆总是先帮太祖母梳头。外婆轻轻地把蓬乱的头发拢在一起，慢慢地梳，还细心地打了一个麻花辫，再盘上去，最后细心地用夹子一个一个地把辫子固定好。太祖母原本蓬乱的头发就变得十分整齐。太祖母显得更有精神了。外婆又把从家里带去的饭与菜一口一口地喂给太祖母吃，把最大的虾剥给她吃。太祖母一边慢慢地咀嚼，一边微微地笑。待太祖母吃完饭后，外婆又连忙搬来了一把椅子，放到小院子里，扶太祖母慢慢地来到门前晒太阳。外婆再打来一盆温水，把毛巾先打湿，微微拧干，轻轻地给太祖母擦脸擦手。恰逢邻居走，总是忍不住夸外婆是个孝顺的好媳妇。可外婆却笑说：“这是我们晚辈应该做的。”

每次跟外婆的去太祖母家，我都深有感触，也使我慢慢地理解了“百善孝为先”的意思。是啊！我们这些做小辈的就应该要孝顺我们的长辈。外婆就是我学习的好榜样。

My father is a gentle man.My father has small eyes,wears a pair of glasses,looking more gently,the daddys hair are not many, he said "the intelligent head does not grow hair".He usually educates me that the person must to be honestly,friendly to other,and working diligently. This is my father, I love him forever. My family has 5 people: father, mother, grandparents, and I. My father works as an engineer in a company. My mother is a primary school math teacher.My grandmother used to be a good student in college. And after she graduated, she became an account.

My grandfather used to be a worker in wood factory. He always worked a lot with those woods. Mother is 35 years old. My father is 5 years older than her. Grandparents are both 60 years old. We just celebrated their 60th birthday for them. To talk about their hobby. Mother likes dancing. Father loves singing. Grandparents prefer Chinese writing. And I love chess.

Shakspere (wrong spelling) created Hamlet--a man with wisdom and courage .In order to revenge on his uncle for killing his father, he pretented (spelling mistake) to be mad and suffered a series of misery. On the contrary, we can also say that Hamlet is rude and selfish for he did not think twice before his revenge . if (Capitalize "If" since it is the beginning word of the sentence.) a country has no king, how can a country keep alive (You need a question mark here since it is a question.) So, every thing has two sides, the bright side and adumbral side. Every time we make a decision we have to think twice.

Comment:

Be careful with your spelling, grammar, and punctuation. Too many uncessary mistakes.It is good that you looked at both the dark and bright sides of Hamlet. Thats quite objective and convincing.

The Lantern Festival (元宵节) is the last day of the Chinese New Year celebration.

This day is for the last moment for setting off fireworks, the last excuse for eating a big feast and the last chance for family getting together before the “年” celebrations are over. (Latern Festival is also a traditional time of celebration for foreigners who live in China).

The Lantern Festival, the 15th of the first month of the lunar calendar, is the first full moon of the year.

Celebrations and traditions on this day date back to the Western Han Dynasty.

Traditions for this festival: as the name indicates, hanging and looking at lanterns is the main tradition.

Lanterns of various shapes and sizes are displayed on trees, or along river banks.

Parents often take their children to Lantern Fairs and sometimes lucky kids even get a mini toy lantern.

Another tradition is guessing lantern riddles. These are riddles that are hung on lanterns for people to shoot down and solve. The riddles are usually short, wise, and sometimes humorous.

The answer to a riddle can be a Chinese character, a famous persons name, a place name or a proverb. This tradition has become a popular game with serious staying power even as social development changes other traditions.

Other than that, the most important thing to do today is to eat sweet dumplings. In northern China, sweet dumplings made of glutinous rice flour are called “元宵” while in southern part they are called “汤圆”.

Typical sweet dumplings are filled with black sesame sauce, sweetened bean paste, or hawthorn. Making “元宵” today is like a game or an activity, so its seldom done without a reason and a group of friends or family present to help out.

Our English Teacher Our English teacher， Ms Huang， came to our school in 1970.

She has been an English teacher for more than 30 years.

She works hard and has been a model teacher for many years. She is kind and friendly to us after class， but She is rather strict with us in class.

She always encourages us to speak and read more English.

She often says，"Practice makes perfect." She is good at teaching and tries her best to make every lesson lively and interesting.

She often gives us slide shows， teaches us English songs and helps us to put on short English playS. She is not only our teacher but also our friend.

We all respect and love her. Tomorrow she is going to attend an important meeting， at which she will be given a medal for her advanced deeds.

俗语说“家和万事兴”，我常常也思考其中的“和”的意义所在。

应该理解为家道吧？所谓家道是治家之道，所谓治家之道就形成了家风，所谓家风则是一个家庭的精神风貌，它所体现的是一个家庭的文化素养，精神气息，生活习惯，行为言语等等质量的高低。因此可见，其"和"归根结底就是家风的好坏，好家风则万事兴。

小而言之，好家风撑门兴户；大而言之，好家风兴国安邦。

所以，良好的家风会传承中华优良的品质，可以为一方土地造就和谐稳定的社会风气。

我常常告诫孩子，在我们家有一个最为基本的家庭制约，就是勤劳，善良，正直，明辨是非，懂团结，知进取，重孝顺。

记得儿子跟我说：“妈妈，为什么我每天都要比别的孩子做的事多？我告诉他，你做得事多，说明你勤劳，勤劳就会有收获，这些收获将会让你比别人强大。”

与人为善方可与恶远之。与恶远之方能安宁顺景。上善若水，水利万物而不与争，因而决定了水的作用和价值，真善无敌！――水能利万物，水也能覆万物！

正直，是一个人用正确的思想决定正确的方法做出正确的事务，不能损人利己，更不能损人损己。正直所体现的是人格魅力。

我也常常对女儿讲，一个女子首先要明辨是非，不明辨是非胡搅蛮缠的都将是祸水。危害自己家庭的和谐，危害别人家庭的稳定，危害社会的安宁，因为女子是安定团结，息事宁人的重要环节。

一个家庭所建树的家风远不止这些。

在日常的生活中，孝道更可谓是一个家庭应该传承的精神，它维系着一个家庭几代人的安宁与幸福。因为，孝顺做在前，后尘会感知，会效仿。

团结是一个家庭的力量的源泉。首先父母要相亲相敬，父母相亲相敬，孩子才会有安全感。孩子有了安全感。团结就会滋生所有的正能量。如上阵父子兵，如手足兄弟情……这些人之常情会让人懂得珍惜与感恩！从而有效抵御一切外来的伤害与干扰。

知进取是促进一个家庭发展的重要途径。父母进取，则孩子独立，则孩子进取。进取就会不畏艰辛积极向上努力为家庭创造价值，向美好的明天挺进！

关于成功的英语作文1：

Different people have different views on success.Some hold that making a great deal of money means success.Others argue that holding an important post in the government means success.Still others believe that having a high academic title at a famous university or a research institute means success. In my opinion,success means brilliant achievement in our work.In other words,no matter what we do,making outstanding contributions to the development of our country and bringing help and happiness to others is success. To achieve success,we should,first of all,have a clear long-term goal in our life.Besides,we should have short term goals in different periods of life.As we know,it is these short term goals that make our long-term goal possible.Second,we should be both perseverant and hardworking.Whatever we do,there are always two possibilities:success and failure.We should never lose heart when we come across difficulties or when we are confronted with failure.Instead,we should learn from our experience,build up our confidence and work even harder and smarter towards our purpose.Third,we should follow the examples of those who are successful and learn from them.Finally,we should try to get along well with our classmates and colleagues.We should care for each other and help each other in our study,our work and our life,because team work is of great importance in the realization of our dream. If we can follow these principles,we will certainly achieve remarkable success in our life. 关于成功的英语作文2：

Every body wants to succeed. But when it comes to the question that which factor leads to success, opportunity or hard-work, different people will offer different answers. Some people think that opportunity is the first factor leading to success. They hold the idea, as a proverb saying, “Man proposes, god disposes”. Because almost all successful people have good luck and have caught their valuable opportunities, they believe that opportunity is a leading conndition of the success. If seizes and makes the best use of opportunity available, one can succeed surely. In summary, to them, chances and lucks play the most important role on the road to success. However, others maintain that “no pains, no gains” .Without exerting oneself, one could never expect to achieve success in no matter what one is doing. As is known to all, there is no royal road to the summit of success. One is likely to succeed only when one has worked with whole-hearted devotion and perseverance. Those who are lazy, sloppy and indifferent to their work, those who never concentrate on work will definitely end in failure. On the whole, as far as they are concerned, hard-working is the decisive factor to success. In my view, both hard work and opportunity eventually matters. They are inseparable from each other, and put together, they make a great success. Hard work is to luck what fish is to water, and can be seen as an interior precondition of success. It lays the corner-stone for building a house while luck serves to cement it, to make the building bricks adherent to one another. They are the twins that contribute to success together. They are the factors from within and without respectively. We must work hard, make efforts and get prepared. When opportunities come, meet and make full use of them. Only in this way can we succeed one day.

Yesterday, I took the final exam of this term. I worked hard to prepare for it, but I was still nervous. I was afraid that I couldn’t do it well. I had three exams, Chinese, math and English. In the morning, it was the Chinese. It was not so difficult for me that I was sure I could be good in it. Then, it was math in the afternoon. It’s the part I was afraid of most. Not surprised, I met some troubles in math exam. But I still hope they wouldn’t be serious. I am good at English, so I didn’t worry about it. I knew I can do well in it. In short, the final exam was not so hard for me and I am quite sure the scores will be perfect.

The Spring Festival, the most important festival of our Chinese nation, heralds the coming of a New Year, and all the families are beaming with joy. On New Years eve, the sound of firecrackers rang through the sky, and people sang and danced, a scene of hot and hot air.

Although the Spring Festival is busy, do you know how Spring Festival comes? Once upon a time, there was a monster named nian, who often bullied people in the mountains in winter. Some wanted to get rid of it, and some wanted to get rid of it. One day, nian came again, and many people were attacked at home. Only a few doors hung with red curtains, and no one was hurt by the fire or knocking at the door, so people in the mountain knew about the three things. When the year came, people used these three things to drive away the monster, and they never dared to hurt people. From generation to generation, the custom of Chinese New Year is formed.

I like the Spring Festival, because some of the delicious popcorn and good drinks, and other kinds of toys.

grandfather for a little while and then Iplayed with my brothers and sisters.

After a while, my elderly brothersuggested going to the park and having a rest.

"Thats a good idea." I said.Then we prepared for the outing. However, after

lunch, the sky turned dark andrained heavily. Therefore, our plan was an

impossible due to the bad weather.How pity it was! All the afternoon, we could

only have fun in house. We playedcards, watched TV and played computer games. We

were happy, but we still hopedthat we can go out next time.

[描述我的房间的英文作文

If we look at the sky on a perfectly fine summer‘s day we shall find that the blue colour is the most pure and intense overhead，and when looking high up in a direction opposite to the sun。

晴空万里的夏日，如果我们观察一下天空，且背向太阳，极目仰望，就会发现头顶上空的蓝色最纯净，最浓郁。

Near the horizon it is always less bright，while in the region immediately around the sun it is more or less yellow. The reason of this is that near the horizon we look through a very great thickness of the lower atmosphere，which is full of the larger dust particles reflecting white light，and this diluter the pure blue of the higher atmosphere seen beyond，and in the vicinity of the sun a good deal of the blue light is reflected back into space by the finer dust，thus giving a yellowish tinge to that which reaches us reflected chiefly from the coarse dust of the lower atmosphere。

靠近天边，色彩往往较暗淡，太阳周围的地方则略呈黄色。这是因为我们向天边望去时，目光要穿过极厚的低空大气层，其中布满颗粒较大的尘埃，反射出白光，这就冲淡了天际高空大气层的纯蓝色。在太阳附近，大 量蓝光则由细微的尘埃反射回太空。这样，主要由低空大气层的粗粒尘埃反射到地面的光线，便带有浅黄色。

At sunset and sunrise，however，this last effect is greatly intensified，owing to the great thickness of the strata of air through which the light reaches us. The enormous amount of this dust is well shown by the fact that then only we can look full at the sun，even when the whole sky is free from clouds and there is no apparent mist。

不过，在日出日落时，由于光线到达地面南非要穿过厚厚的大气层，这种反射效果大大增强了。只有在这种时候，我们才可以直视太阳，即使万里长空没有一点云彩，不见一丝雾霭。这就充分显示了低空尘埃的数量之大。

Dear Mr. Brown,

Much to my regret,I was unable to keep my engagement to meet you at the

I shall be gladif you will kindly write and tell me when and where we may

meet again. I hope to see you soon.
