关于孝道的英文作文精彩20篇

天下最不能等待的.事情莫过于孝敬父母。

——题记

我曾看过一篇文章《当父母都老的时候》，文中说的是天下父母共同的心声：

当我们都老了，不再是原来的我们，请你们做儿女的理解我们，对我们有点耐心不要嫌我们整日唠唠叨叨，前言不搭后语，其实都是为你们好!

当我们吃饭是嘴漏，把饭菜与口水流到衣服上师，你们千万别责怪我们，也不要嫌我们脏，请你们想一想：当初，我们是如何手把着给你么喂饭的，是如何为你们擦屁股端尿。

当我们说话是，忽然忘了主题，请你们给我们一点回想的时间，人老了，难免有些迟钝，让我们想一想再说。其实，谈论什么并不重要，只要你们在旁边听我们说下去，我们就心满意足了。

当我们渐渐变老，直到弯腰驼背，老眼昏花，甚至病倒不起，请不要悲伤，这是自然规律。你们只要能给我们送口饭，添点衣服，时常回家看看，我们就知足了。

当我们老了的时候，请多给我们一点爱心吧!当初，我们引导你们走上人生之路，如今请陪伴我们走完最后的路程。我们会回报你们感激的微笑，这微笑中凝结这我们对你们无限的爱!

是的，孝敬其实并非一定需要多少金钱，只要在力所能及的范围之内就行。而处于学生时代的我们，能做的不仅仅是只怀有感恩之心。

“落红不是无情物，化作春泥更护花。”这是花儿的感恩。“乌鸟私情，愿乞终样。”这是鸟儿的感恩。努力学习，实现梦想。这是我们的感恩。是的，其实感恩很“简单”，其实孝敬很“简单”。只要我们努力学习，考上大学，赢个美好的未来，让父母以我们为傲，以我们的为荣，幸福地过完后半生，这就是对父母的孝敬，对父母最好的回报。让我们大家一起努力，一起拼搏，圆自己的梦更圆父母的梦!

比尔·盖茨曾说过：“天下不能等待的事情莫过于孝敬父母”。是的，我们要珍惜时间，趁父母还健在赶紧孝敬吧，否则我们做儿女的将永远后悔。

I Like Sunny Days

I really like sunny days. My mood is very good on sunny days because the sun is shining and I can see the beautiful sky. On days when the weather is not good, I would have to stay outside, and it can become boring. However if it is sunny I can enjoy the outdoors. It is good weather for jogging, taking a walk, or riding a bike. It is even better if there is a breeze, because then it is cool so it is more pleasant to be outside. Popsicles and ice creams are very good snacks for warm, sunny days. The coldness helps me cool down and feel good. I like to play games with my friends outside. We like jumping rope, playing volleyball and badminton. If the sun is very bright, sometimes it is hard to see if the sunlight is reflected into my eyes. It would be useful to have sunglasses to block the sunlight. It feels good to sweat because of exercise, because I know I am becoming healthier.

Today is March Womens Day,I want to do several things to help his mother,let her have a happy holiday.

At noon,I came home and found the table already filled with delicious food,but just could not see her mother.Suddenly,I heard a sound of laundry to the laundry and saw the stage,my mother was washing clothes.I said:"Mom,you go to eat,Ill wash.Because today is your holiday,I want to make you happy." "Are you okay?" Mom asked,smiling."OK," I said.Mom went to eat doubtfully.

I picked up the sleeves,took out a piece of clothing,wet with blisters,and then cast soap,then rub hard.Yeah rub rub,rub my hands are red,but there are still a little greasy clothes,do not rub clean.I had to rinse with a brush,then rinse well with water and the clothes clean.I washed some clothes,my mother came,looked at me hard to look like,my mother smiles,so happy,so happy.

Evening,I rush to help her mother wash the dishes,I washed dishes placed neatly.Mother looked,smiled and said:"So this is Yao Yao gave me holiday gift!" Although I am more tired than usual today,but I am very happy because I let my mother had a happy holiday season.

Could you please teach us slower? We should have time to understand everything we learnt .Then we can learn the nature not the surface.

We also need to practice the important and easily wrong difficulties again and again. And we wont get puzzled when we meet the similar questions.

Doing homework is a way to make sure if all of us can control the knowledge.We hope that there will be less homework in order to increase the quality.

Besides,inspire us more and well do better than before.

This is a beautiful park. In the afternoon , many children are playing . They are very happy.

I can see some trees. They are big and tall. I can see some flowers . They are very beautiful . There are many butterflies on the flower . I can see some birds in the sky . They are flying happily. Under the tree , two girls are playing hopscotch. Some boys are playing with a skipping rope. The other two little girls are drawing a picture.

I m playing with the toy cars in front of the tree.

It s a beautiful afternoon.

My father, Winston Churchill, began his love affair with painting in his 40s, amid disastrous circumstances. As First Lord of the Admiralty in 1915, he was deeply involved in a campaign in the Dardanelles that could have shortened the course of a bloody world war. But when the mission failed, with great loss of life, Churchill paid the price, both publicly and privately. He was removed from the admiralty and effectively sidelined.

Overwhelmed by the catastrophe — “I thought he would die of grief,” said his wife, Clementine —he retired with his family to Hoe Farm, a country retreat in Surrey. There, as Churchill later recalled, “The muse of painting came to my rescue!”

Wandering in the garden one day, he chanced upon his sister-in-law sketching with watercolors. He watched her for a few minutes, then borrowed her brush and tried his hand. The muse had cast her spell!

Churchill soon decided to experiment with oils. Delighted with this distraction from his dark broodings, Clementine rushed off to buy whatever paints she could find.

For Churchill, however, the next step seemed difficult as he contemplated with unaccustomed nervousness the blameless whiteness of a new canvas. He started with the sky and later described how “very gingerly I mixed a little blue paint on the palette, and then with infinite precaution made a mark about as big as a bean upon the affronted snow-white shield. At that moment the sound of a motor car was heard in the drive. From this chariot stepped the gifted wife of Sir John Lavery .”

“ ‘Painting!’ she declared. ‘But what are you hesitating about? Let me have the brush — the big one.’ Splash into the turpentine, wallop into the blue and the white, frantic flourish on the palette, and then several fierce strokes and slashes of blue on the absolutely cowering canvas.”

At that time, John Lavery— a Churchill neighbor and celebrated painter— was tutoring Churchill in his art. Later, Lavery said of his unusual pupil: “Had he chosen painting instead of statesmanship, I believe he would have been a great master with the brush.”

In painting, Churchill had discovered a companion with whom he was to walk for the greater part of the years that remained to him. After the war, painting would offer deep solace when, in 1921, the death of the mother was followed two months later by the loss of his and Clementine’s beloved three-year-old daughter, Marigold. Battered by grief, Winston took refuge at the home of friends in Scotland, finding comfort in his painting. He wrote to Clementine: “I went out and painted a beautiful river in the afternoon light with crimson and golden hills in the background. Alas I keep feeling the hurt of the Duckadilly (Marigold’s pet name).”

Historians have called the decade after 1929, when the Conservative government fell and Winston was out of office, his wilderness years. Politically he may have been wandering in barren places, a lonely fighter trying to awaken Britain to the menace of Hitler, but artistically that wilderness bore abundant fruit. During these years he often painted in the South of France. Of the 500-odd canvases extant, roughly 250 date from 1930 to 1939.

Painting remained a joy to Churchill to the end of his life. “Happy are the painters,” he had written in his book Painting as a Pastime, “ for they shall not be lonely. Light and color, peace and hope, will keep them company to the end of the day.” And so it was for my father.

我的父亲，温斯顿·丘吉尔，在他四十多岁时开始迷恋上绘画，当时环境异常恶劣。那是在1915年，任海军大臣的他，积极投身于在达达尼尔海峡的一场战役中，这场战役本可以缩短那段血雨腥风的世界大战。但由于遭受失败，伤亡惨重，丘吉尔于公于私都付出了代价。他被从海军部调离且实则坐起了冷板凳。

在灾难的折磨下——他的妻子克莱门廷说：“我想他会痛苦而死，”——他携家带口来到萨利郡的一处乡间静居霍·华姆。在那儿，丘吉尔后来回忆道，“是绘画中的冥思拯救了我！”

一天他在花园散步时，偶然看到他的弟媳在用水彩作画。他观察了几分钟，然后向她借了画笔并一试身手。他的专注仿佛给他施了魔法！

丘吉尔很快就决定试试去画油画。看到他从阴暗的忧郁思中解脱出来，克莱门廷非常开心，她赶忙去买所有能买到的颜料。

然而，迈出下一步似乎有些困难，因为丘吉尔看到一块新画布的洁白无暇时感到无所适从和为难。他先从天空画起，后来他描述如何“非常谨慎地在调色板上加入一点儿蓝色调，然后以万分的小心，在这块被蓄意冒犯的雪白的防护板上点上豌豆大的一笔。这时，传来一阵驾驶机动车的马达声。约翰·拉威利先生才华出众的太太从这辆车中姗然而下。

“‘在画画呀！’她高声说着。‘可你还在犹豫什么呢？给我那支笔——那支头号的。’只见松油飞溅，她在蓝白颜料间挥毫泼墨，在调色板上龙飞凤舞，接着在吓得发皱的油画布上用力东戳西捣几下蓝色。”

那时，约翰·拉威利——丘吉尔的邻居，也是一位有名的画家—正教丘吉尔学画。后来提及他的这位特殊的学生，拉威利说：“倘若他选择绘画而不是从政，我相信他会是位绘画大师的。”

在绘画中，丘吉尔找到了能陪他度过余生大部分时光的知已。战后，在1921年，母亲刚去世两个月，他和克莱门廷就失去了他们深爱着的三岁女儿玛丽戈尔德，这时作画给了他一些安慰。在痛苦的打击下，温斯顿来到苏格兰朋友们的家中以求得安慰，用绘画来解脱自己。他在给克莱门廷的信中说：“我出外画了一条夕阳下美丽的溪流，背后映衬着晚霞的群山。唉，达克迪莉（玛丽戈尔德的昵称）使我的苦痛总是挥之不去。

史学家把1929年后的十年，也就是保守党政府垮台而温斯顿下台的时间，称为他的荒凉岁月。政治上，他一直在举步维艰的处境中徘徊，是一个孤独的勇士在努力唤起受到希特勒威胁的国人，但在艺术上他在那荒凉岁月却硕果累累。这些年他经常在法国南部作画。在现存的500多张油画中，大约250张是1930至1939年间的作品。

绘画给丘吉尔带来了乐趣直到他的人生尽头。在他所著的《画中的消遣》里说：“画家其乐融融，因为他们不会孤独。光与色，和平与希望，会始终伴随他们。”我父亲就是这样一个人。

[温斯顿·丘吉尔:生活侧记-名人传记英文故事

我国具有五千年的文明历史，拥有文明之国的美称。每个中国人都应该学会彬彬有礼，当然我们这新一代小学生更应该学传统、行孝道、知感恩。

记得有一次，我走在路上，突然妈妈摔了一跤，我和弟弟连忙扶起妈妈。

此时，我想起了《弟子规》里面许多的关于孝顺的故事，于是我就想：我晚上一定要帮妈妈洗一次脚。到了晚上，妈妈刚要洗脚，我就对妈妈说：妈妈今天晚上我帮你洗次脚。不用了。妈妈说。没关系，妈妈，我就帮你洗一次脚吧。我对妈妈说。好。。。。。。吧。。。。。。妈妈一边抹着眼泪，一边感动的说。妈妈疑惑的坐了下来，我把妈妈的鞋子脱了下来。我一边看着一边摸着妈妈那十个似乎已经变形的丑陋的脚趾头，虽然我的表面上显得十分的不在乎，可是我心里却涨满了感动。

我帮着妈妈洗脚，我的心却想着这十一年来和妈妈一起度过的酸甜苦辣咸。我心想：妈妈为了我和弟弟付出了许多，虽然妈妈对我和弟弟十分严格，但还是每次都把自己辛辛苦苦赚来的钱给我和弟弟买零食、新衣服、玩具等等东西，而妈妈却没有给自己买新衣服。想到了这里，我都感动的流下了眼泪。妈妈发现了我的异样，就低下头亲切的说：你怎么了？我听到了妈妈那句话，就伸出了自己的长臂，勾住了妈妈的脖子，对妈妈激动的说：妈妈我爱您！

亲爱的同学们，赶快拿起我们手中的笔吧写出我们的学传统、行孝道、知感恩之路。我们的学传统、行孝道、知感恩之路总是阳光明媚，晴空万里，到底哪一缕阳光最耀眼？有人说是优异的学习成绩、有人说是给予别人帮助、有人说是自己的生日、有人说是付出爱心去安慰人、有人说是自己快乐的一天、有人说是我们儿童过的最快乐的儿童节有人说是最快乐的春节。。。。。。

每个人的想法都是不同的，当然我也不例外，而我却觉得是就是要懂得感恩父母和要懂得孝顺父母，那才是我们的美好的、完整的、阳光明媚的、晴空万里的学传统、行孝道、知感恩之路。

Last Saturday,with all my classmates and teachers,I went on a trip to the nature park .We departed from school at about half past seven and spent about 40 minutes travelling to our destination.When we first entered into the park,all of us were shocked by the natural beauty and the hamonized ecosystem of the park.Then,happily we were playing games on the sand; swimming in the pool and taking with our friends on the grassplot.After lunch break,our programs were continued with an contest of story narating held and each of us was immerging within the funny stories We left the part at about 5 oclock,and unitl now,most of us are still haunted by the beautiful memory of that trip.

There are too many tomorrow, but there will be no more of the same today. From the starting point of life to the present graduating little boy, you have the life you have lamented the grief at separation and joy in Union? Have failed but still can laugh at life? You have my pain and frustration over the curse of God? Whether you have done this, everything has become the past, good memories; everything has become history, a wise choice.

In a rain in the morning, the flowers and trees on campus after rain baptism, more beautiful, more healthy, my classmates and I are eating breakfast, imperceptibly, I stay in the eyes of a little girl who, he is wearing a yellow skirt carrying a big bag, alone a person wandering in front of the teaching building. At this moment, I can not help but think of themselves, in six years ago, that was the first grade at the entrance of the small child has made such a move, every time when I go to school, I always a person wandering in front of the teaching building, I silently in my heart to leave the nursery when good partners, I it entered the school, started a new study and life, I must work hard, and then get back their competition! This is just a very simple and naive, but now I grow up, remember everything is just a dream, and now whether they meet difficulties, I always the up to fling caution to the winds, think of those who are very far but very close friends, their company makes me feel lonely, they encourage me to have confidence in the future.

There are too many vicissitudes of life, grief at separation and joy in Union in the six years of primary school career, I am lucky to finish my school life here. I have been studying here for six years, although I often have some war of words between my classmates, but I always think I live in a happy, free and forever class. Review the past, I will always feel gratified, always proud of oneself! It all seems like a gold bubble, there are countless small drop of water, though it is never broken, because it needs to collect more drops of water, until the end of the world.

Looking back on the past, our life is so beautiful; looking to the future, our life is so wonderful. We have been traveling on this long road on this road, covered with thorns and flowers. We have been trying to do well, though we will encounter many difficulties on the way, but we have been sticking to the virtues of human nature. The past, let it pass, the history is still beautiful. In the future, I will not give up my dream, no matter how deep the "difficult Valley" is on the road of life. Looking forward to the future, I am confident, I will work hard for my dream!

今天老师让我们看了一幅图画。这图画让我明白了一个道理。

图画上一年过花甲的农民，坐在一个竹椅上，他的面前是一个年轻人光着膀子给他洗脚，看得出那个年轻人就是他的儿子。他的儿子身上出了很多汗，那个老人拿着扇子给年他儿子扇扇子。年轻人的后面有一个小孩子在拿着毛巾给年轻人擦汗，这个小孩子应该就是年轻人的儿子。这是明显的祖孙三代互相关爱的真实情景，表现出了小孝老、老爱小的一个场面。

老师给我们讲，这个图画的题目是《中国梦，孝先行》，中国人都知道孝是什么，是中华民族的传统美德，通俗讲就是晚辈对长辈的关爱和帮助。这幅图画表现出的也可以说成是孝道的传递。

我看着这幅图画一家人很和气，感觉在这样的家庭里生活很温暖。从这幅图画我明白了中国传统的孝道要代代传下去，孝道是不能丢的。

我认为孝道就是人类文明的具体体现的一个方面。

Dear Mrs. Shi,

hello. Must first thank you to be willing very much to arrive at our school, teaches us business English this curriculum. To your first impression is childish, very kind feeling. After knowing your study experience, increased to your sentiment of worship.Because Fudan Universitys world economics specialty is my dream, even if forever possibly could not realize. In fact,I really want to see your study life at ordinary times, I want to know what kind of habits accomplished thus excellent of you.

This semester, we got the subject of 《Offer&Counter-Offer》 , I also remember until now our group comes on stage performances scene, I can only use two words to describe: bad and awkward. Because we do not have well the preparation, cause then the situation of the mess. On the PPT content is directly from on-line duplication and glue. But takes me who lectures not to have well the preparation, is simply is on site to display. At that time stood on the stage feeling is really very bad, I only wanted a bit faster to finish lecture, hurry to leave stage. That experience told me “the full preparation” importance.

In your class, I also have another unforgettable experience, is some time roll-call. You didn’t call everybody,when you selected Wang Kaiya, I helped her to call, which knew that you called me to raise hand to look to you. Afterward you selected unexpectedly to mine name. I am really suspected very much that you thought I am not Wang Kaiya, therefore has turned head selects the Han Xue name again, because of mine student number in the front of Wang Kaiya. Afterward one time, you were called each group of group leaders name, I helped Wang Kaiya to call once more, therefore I thought that perhaps you regarded me Wang Kaiya.Ha-ha, this merely is my guess!

On your class we feel relaxed, we don’t have the tedious knowledge spot and heavy homework. Some are only your speaking with confidence with each kind of small story, you used your personal experience to teach our some truths.

This semester, my impression quite deep is “transportation” this chapter. I have learned the transport expense computing mode, and in the transportation process the risk undertakes the way. The different transport mode and the method of settling accounts, will have the dissimilar transport expense and the risk. Actually in “the international trade”, I has also studied some international shippings knowledge, but in yours class, I studied each technical expression in English. For freight,direct vessel,entir voyage and so on.

Oh, Oh, I am really could not write again about this semester’s studies and thought, because spoke the truth, I very few listened earnestly, especially in the university. Therefore teacher I’m sorry very much, this semesters work I stopped. Wishes you and your family member has the happiness content life!

I have a lot of friends, but my best friends are Alex and Liu Jingyan! They can help me when I am in trouble, and when I am sad, they can comfort me, and when I am happy, I will share happiness with them. And you?

Im sure youll be the same as me. Theyre two introverted little girls, just like me, because of that, Ive made good friends with the two of them. Not only for reasons, but also for other reasons, they will always be my best friends!

孝敬其实很快乐

“天下无双，孝子黄香”孝敬是中华民族的传统美德，孝敬更是每一个孩子应当做到的。这不，这个暑假我家每一天午餐的锅碗我承担了，给妈妈分担家务。

"左擦擦，右擦擦......”我一边哼着自编的小调儿，一边勤快地洗着碗儿。总之，我对洗碗这种小菜一碟的事情是充满兴趣的。不信，你瞧我这般架势：左手拿碗，右手抓着抹布，有模有样地洗着。可没想到是，我在中途遇到了一只“拦路虎”：小花碗和我开玩笑，调皮地从我手里溜到了水池里，自个儿跳起了“水上迪斯科”。我生气了，表情由晴转阴，皱起眉头，毫不客气地拿起油油的小花碗，对它气呼呼地说：“你不仁我也不义!"也许它害怕我了，便不再也不敢调皮地玩滑滑梯了。

接下来，我就得理解妈妈的检查了。原本我还以为能够得到一枚“洗碗勋章”。可妈妈的话如同晴天霹雳：“哦，这个米粒儿是怎样回事？”我一下“囧”了，脸瞬间像魔术般红成了大苹果。我立刻拿起碗重新洗，这次，我比刚刚认真了许多，因为我想得到妈妈的认可。

“哦，我最后再次洗完了！”我长舒了一口气，转过身去刚想叫妈妈，却只见妈妈倚在在厨房门旁，欣慰地看着我，给了我一个爱的拥抱。

“百善孝为先”让我们用语言、用行动从小事情做起，向父母传递一份爱，表达一份孝心。

Its the third Sunday in June again, and its the holiday Ive been looking

forward to for a long time - Fathers Day.

"Mom, what do you want to give grandpa?" I asked my mother, resting my chin

on my hand. After thinking for a moment, Mom said, "Fruit basket!" "Mom, help me

think about what should I give Dad?" "Lets go to the boutique and have a

look."

So, we went to the boutique, and we picked left and right, carefully

selected, and we all felt that these gifts were not very good. "Ah, Dad is a

dog, so give him a puppy!" I suddenly had such an idea.

We walked over to the plastic and found a lifelike puppy which was very

interesting. Furry hair, piercing eyes, and a smiling face make people like him

more and more. I thought to myself: This puppy is cute, thats all.

I bought it, asked the waiter to pack it, and went home happily. When I got

home, I wrote a blessing on a piece of paper and put it by the bed with the

gift.

I discussed it with my mother and came up with a terrifying plan: We hid in

the place where Dad must pass when he entered the room, and when Dad came in, we

would scare him. So we quickly hid. "Dong dong dong..." "Dad is here!" Grandma

stepped forward to open the door, when Dad walked past us. "Wow," we jumped out.

"Ah, scared me to death!" Dad was shaking. A dignified man was frightened by

us, haha! "Mum sneered at Dad.

When Dad walked into the room and found the gift, his eyes were wide open,

and he couldnt help holding me around the living room a few times.

I will never forget this Fathers Day.

Today after dinner, the adults were tired, and I volunteered to say, "Mom, Ill do the housework today." Mom is very happy. I put the dishes from the water room, see the rest of the noodles, I said: "Mom, I put the noodles refrigerator?" my mother told me to put cold noodles. And then I began to wash the dishes.

Mother in the side said: "put some detergent, can go to oil, wash clean, and can also sterilize." I quickly washed the bowl, and then I rubbed the table and collected the table. Finally, I also swept the ground clean.

I was tired of doing these housework, I was sweating, but I was happy, mom said I grew up.

It is difficult for people to achieve professional success without sacrificing important aspects of a fulfilling personal life.

Discuss the extent to which you agree or disagree with the opinion slated above. Support your views with reasons and/or examples from your own experience, observations, or reading.

Are professional success and a fulfilling personal life mutually exclusive? Probably not, although it is more difficult today to achieve both.

Undeniably, todays professionals must work long hours to keep their heads above water, let alone to get ahead in life financially. This is especially true in Japan, where cost of living, coupled with corporate culture, compel professional males to all but abandon their families and literally to work themselves to death. While the situation here in the states may not be as critical, the two-income family is now the norm, not by choice but by necessity.

However, our societys professionals are taking steps to remedy the problem. First, they are inventing ways such as job sharing and telecommuting to ensure that personal life does not take a back seat to career. Second, they are setting priorities and living those hours outside the workplace to their fullest. In fact, professional success usually requires the same time-management skills that are useful to find time for family, hobbies, and recreation. One need only look at the recent American presidents-Clinton, Bush, Reagan and Carter- to see that it is possible to lead a balanced life which includes time for family, hobbies, and recreation, while immersed in a busy and successful career. Third, more professionals are changing careers to ones which allow for some degree of personal fulfillment and self-actualization. Besides, many professionals truly love their work and would do it without compensation, as a hobby. For them, professional and personal fulfillments are one and the same.

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

As the rain was more and heavier, we were afraid to sink in the river. We tried our best to make our boat in shore. But our bamboo raft had more water on it. I was afraid to die. My brother was also very anxious. At that time, my mother came and she pulled us back to the ground. It was thrilling.

那是一个晴天。我们的父母都出去了，所以只有我和哥哥在家。我们很无聊。所以我们决定去划船。我们玩的很开心。但当我们走到河中央时，天气变了。突然下起雨来。我们没带伞，而且我们的船还竹排。由于雨越来越大，我们担心会沉到河里去。我们尽力使我们的船靠岸。但是竹筏上的水越来越多。我害怕死了。我哥哥也很着急。那时，我妈妈来了来了，她把我们拉回到地面。真的惊心动魄啊。
