There is not a (no) thrifty man but bees a rich man sooner or later。 Why?

Because he will not spend such money as is unnecessary。 Little by little his

money will accumulate。 Ten to one, he is bound to make a fortune。I do not like

such men as spend their money in a wrong way。 They do not know extravagance is a

bad thing。 It can only make them happy for the time being。 In short, thrift

makes poor men rich and extravagance makes rich men poor。

篇1:孝道作文600字

全文共 622 字

+ 加入清单

俗话说得好:父慈子孝,家和事兴。孝是做人之根,行事之本,所以古人以孝治国。

孝道是中华民族传统美德,是中华民族的优良品质,那么怎样才能做到孝呢?我们可以从身边的小事做起,帮父母做一些力所能及的事,比如说,帮他们扫地,帮他们洗碗,帮他们倒水。

现在的我们正处于青春期,觉得父母最好不要管我。随着我们慢慢长大,说话也越来越少。不仅如此,父母随便说个几句,我们却觉得很烦,有时我甚至还和父母闹矛盾呢。

面对我们的不孝,父母却是满满的包容,和期待。一位母亲在接受记者采访时候动情地说:“我们做父母的其实特别希望孩子有帮父母做点事的举动或者想法,哪怕只是倒一杯水,扫一次地,我们心里都会感到特别的欣慰,甚至是特别的感动”。

倒一杯水,扫一次地,有这么难吗?从小到大,父母为我们到了多少杯水,扫了多少次地?而我们真的忙到连做这些小事的时间都没有了吗?我们有多少的时间用在了玩手机上,用在了埋怨父母上?

我们知道,小时候是谁细心温柔的照顾你的,父母。他们喊过累吗?不,没有!他们只是用全部的心血呵护我们一点点幸福成长。

长大成年后,我们也有了自己的工作,那时候不可能陪在父母身边了,倒一杯水,扫一次地,或许成了奢望。有人也许会说,以后我们可以把工作放一边,回家陪陪孤独的父母。可是,假如现在我们连倒一杯水、扫一次地都做不到,还能期望以后有这份难得的孝心。

让我们行动起来吧,从身边的小事做起,帮父母做一些力所能及的事,以实际行动孝敬父母,弘扬我们的优秀品质,让社会更美好。

“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。

Dear Mum,

Hello!

After school at noon today, I quarreled with you on my way home. Why do you

suppose I quarrelled with you? Thats because you said a sentence that makes me

very angry, which is: "Mr. Lin sent text messages to criticize you today."

Because you said a lie, let me very angry, it is because of your words, I give

nasty! Usually you say me, I have no complaint. But todays you why want to give

me so big fire! Are you scolding me, scolding me, or beating me because your

shop is not doing well? Or because you read the text message of my

misunderstanding. I know you dont mean it, but just speak to me when you have

something to say, and dont be so cross when you talk to me. I think you do not

understand the meaning of the teacher said, I now come to tell you what the

teachers words mean! In fact, the teachers meaning is very simple: the teacher

told us in the morning: "Yesterday only Wei Yujie revised all the diary, while

others only modified a part, did not completely correct." The words "one person"

in the teachers text message refer to Wei Yujie, and "others" refer to everyone

in our class (except Wei). In this way, it is easy to understand: everyone in

the class (except Wei Yujie) must finish revising all the diaries this

weekend.

But it was also my fault, because I did not explain myself clearly to you,

and it was your misunderstanding of me. So here I want to say to you: "Mom,

Sorry!"

I wish you:

youth

篇18:温斯顿·丘吉尔:生活侧记-名人传记英文故事

全文共 4543 字

+ 加入清单

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。
