十月一日是一年一度的国庆节,是祖国母亲的生日。祖国母亲今年66周岁了，因此全国都洋溢着喜庆的气氛 。

乘着这气氛，我们一家人来到了山清水秀的外婆家。

中午，吃完了饭，我们就漫步在田间销路，欣赏田园风光，当走到外婆家的地是，看着那娇小的辣椒，像花儿一样的莴笋，竹子般的洋辣椒……一切让人感到一阵欢喜。然而继续向前走就没有这么好的事物了：

一口池塘边，全是一群一群的死鱼漂在水上，旁边的橘子树也枯萎了。

我们再往前十米看，橘子树又是硕果累累，枝繁叶茂。这可真奇怪，就像别人说的水土不同吧!☆

我们又沿着山路向前周，一路上，爸爸妈妈停的向我介绍，还讲了一些他们小时侯的故事。 …… 时间不早了!我们又从另一条路回外婆家，一路上我们看到有很多马齿苋便一路上说说笑笑的把马齿苋摘了一大把，恨不得能有个口袋把它们装下，就这样 我们有回到了外婆家。

这次国庆虽然没有到外面游山玩水，但是去外婆家也饱了我的眼福呀!

今天是清明节，我和爸爸妈妈回老家去扫墓。在扫墓的路上，我们的开的汽车走过的全是平坦、宽敞的马路。等我们到了墓地，看到那里人山人海，全都在发扬我们中华民族的优良传统——扫墓。等我们走到我的祖坟上，我还以为人们都在烧纸，但是我居然没有闻到一丁儿点烟味。再一看，原来人们的是在坟墓上插上一朵美丽的鲜花。过了一会儿，扫墓结束了。我们和外公外婆告别后，就回到了盐城。回到家后的第一个感想就是：农村的变化实在太大了!

Today is Tomb Sweeping Day, my father and mother went home to sweep the tombs. Sweep the tombs in the road, our car through the whole flat, spacious road. And so we went to the cemetery, where huge crowds of people, all in carrying forward the fine tradition of our nation -- sweep the tombs. We go to my grave, I thought all the people in the paper, but I was not one iota of cigarette smell smell. Look, it is inserted in the beautiful flowers on a grave. After a while, sweep the tombs. We said goodbye and grandpa grandma, returned to Yancheng. Back to the first impression is: the rural home after the change is too great!

以前，我爷爷那一代，走的都是泥巴路，骑着自行车，遇上下雨天就麻烦了，跟本不是人骑车，而是“车骑人”。而且扫墓时烧纸烧的农烟滚滚，用我们现在的名词就是：白色污染。而现在呢，开的是汽车，走的是平坦的大路，扫墓时插的是鲜花。而且到了今天，人们还不忘我国优良传统，人人都尊老爱幼。

Previously, my grandfathers generation, are taking the mud road, riding a bicycle, encounter a rainy day is in trouble, and this is not people to ride, but "my people". And sweep the tombs when burning burning agricultural smoke, with us now: a noun is the white pollution. And now, drive a car, along the flat road, sweep the tombs are the flowers inserted. But until today, people still dont forget our fine tradition, everyone must go.

今天，我们虽然生活水平提高了，但是要仍不忘我国的优良传统。

Today, although we raised the standard of living, but still did not forget our fine traditions.

my father bought a computer as a birthday present for me last year. it becomes my best friend in my room. id like to play on the computer as soon as i get home. at weekends, i often play games on line with my friends.

ive made a lot of friends on the intenet. but my eyesight becomes poorer and poorer, and i am not able to finish my homework on time. its terrible that my father will remove the computer. from now on, i should pay more attention to my study.

Dragon Boat Festival is a Chinese traditional festival. It falls on the

fifth day of May in the lunar calendar. A day before this festival, my mother

and grandmother began to make zongzi. Of course, I would act as assistant. But

it turned out that I was more of a hindrance than a help. When they finished,

they started to cook them. This process needed a long time, because I could have

them in the next day. Zongzi was very delicious. On the day of dragon boat

festival, our family prepared for dinner after having breakfast. Everyone of my

family will come back home for the solid diet. Chicken is indispensable on the

dinner desk in Chinese traditional festival. There were many delicious foods,

which made me watering. I ate lots of them. It is a wonderful festival.

[初中英语作文：the plan for the new term 新学期的打算

When it comes to success, different people have different opinions about what makes it come true. Some people regard hard-working as an essential quality to success while others believe being clever would lead to success. From my point of view, I think perseverance and hard-working are indispensable for those who want to make an achieveme

谈到成功时，对于实现成功的原因不同的人有不同的看法。有些人认为勤奋是成功必备的素质，而另一些人则相信聪明人会实现成功。从我的角度来看，我认为毅力和勤奋对于那些想要成功的人是必不可少的。

Firstly, perseverance let people step closely towards success. Most people want to make a big difference to prove their value. People who set their goal and keep moving would make their dream come true. However, there are some people who set their goal but they stop at the difficulty would fail in the end. I think the difference between success and failure is perseverance. If we have perseverance, even if we are not clever, we will make a great difference, but if we not, we are doomed to lose. As we all know, Edison is a great inventor in the world. However, before he invented the bulb, he kept trying for tens of thousands of times to find a suitable wire. Let us imagine, if he gave up at the 999th, then how he couldn’t become so successful. So, I strongly believe that perseverance produces success.

首先，毅力让人离成功越来越近。大多数人都想用不同的方式证明自己的价值。设定自己的目标，向着目标走，就可以使梦想成真了。然而，有些人设立了目标，却在困难面前妥协了将以失败告终。我认为成功与失败之间的差别是毅力。如果我们有毅力，即使我们不聪明，我们也会有很大的不同，但是如果我们没有毅力，我们注定是要失败的。我们都知道，爱迪生是一位伟大的发明家。但是，在他发明电灯泡前，他试了为数千次去找一个合适的线。让我们想象一下，如果他在第九百九十九次放弃了，那么他就不可能变得如此成功。因此，我强烈认为，坚持就会成功。

Secondly, there is also a kind of people who are born with cleverness, I think they are lucky. Nevertheless, if they don’t make a hard work on their way to their goal, they, absolutely, will become loser. Whether we are gifted for intelligent, we must be hard-working so as to success. I regard hard-working as an efficient approach to be successful because I believe ‘pains and gains’. As for those who do not make great efforts on work, failure follows. In old times, there is a clever boy who can make excellent poem when he can talk. When his father found the little child’s cleverness, he just let the child make poems to show around while never let the boy learned anything. When the boy grew up, people forgot him because he lost the ability Secondly, there is also a kind of people who are born with cleverness, I think they are lucky.

Nevertheless, if they don’t make a hard work on their way to their goal, they, absolutely, will become loser. Whether we are gifted for intelligent, we must be hard-working so as to success. I regard hard-working as an efficient approach to be successful because I believe ‘pains and gains’. As for those who do not make great efforts on work, failure follows. In old times, there is a clever boy who can make excellent poem when he can talk. When his father found the little child’s cleverness, he just let the child make poems to show around while never let the boy learned anything. When the boy grew up, people forgot him because he lost the ability

其次，还有一种人是天生聪明的，他们是幸运的。然而，如果他们没有在实现目标之前努力工作，他们当然也会成为失败者。无论我们是否有天资，我们都应该努力工作以获得成功。我认为勤奋是成功的一个有效的方法，因为我相信的“付出和收获”。对于那些不努力工作的人最后是失败的了。在古代，有一个聪明的男孩，在他能说话的时候就可以作优秀的诗歌。当他的父亲发现他孩子的聪明时，他只是让孩子到处作诗歌来炫耀，却从不让他儿子学习别的知识。孩子长大后，人们把他遗忘了，因为他失去了创作能力，成为了普通人。从这件事中，我们可以看到，只有通过努力工作才能获得知识，拥有一个好的 Anyway, I think perseverance and hard-working are both important in our way to success for they enhance us and produce success

不管怎么样，我觉得毅力和勤奋在成功路上都是很重要的，因为他们提升我们并获得成功。

I am very happy today.

Today I have received the highest honour as I obtained full mark and finally beat Xiaoming in the English test.I have been famous for my ability of studying English and eventually I showed my true power today.Those people who are gossiping behind my back should shut up now.

After school,when I went home, I found a hundred dollar notes.Somebody must have been careless and dropped them.Since this is a deserted road,I would not bother returning the money as I had nowhere to go to.

Then,I helped a blind uncle crossing the road.

I feel that I am really delighted.

Since we were born as a little baby, we get help from others all the time. Our parents raise us, our teachers teach us and our friends company us. Therefore, it’s important for us to be grateful to those people who give us a hand. Being grateful is a way to show them our appreciation and our love. No one in the world is supposed to love us without any conditions. Moreover, Being grateful to others and to what you get can lead you are ready to help others, too. I think this is the most important impact on people that being grateful. If we are all show our appreciation to others and then help others, we could build a friendly and harmonious society.

I have a lot of friends but Amy is my best friend.He is a boy. Both of us are good at English, so we often have a chat in English in our spare time. After school, we often play football together on the playground. He runs so fast that I can not catch up with him. He is an excellent student. He not only gets good marks in all subjects but also is very kind and modest. He loves popular songs and also classical music.

I am primary school now, this is my second year, in order to focus more on my study, I live in school now, I will go home on the weekend. Our school is under construction lately, the workers are doing their work in the daytime, the machines make out large noise, I can’t focus my mind on the study.

That’s not the worse situation, when I take a nap in the afternoon, the machines are still working, I can’t sleep. So when I wake up, my head is not well working, I want to sleep all the day.

The school should limit the time for the workers, they should stop working during the snap time for school. It will be reasonable for students.

我现在在上初中，这是我在学校的第二年，为了地集中精力学习，我现在住在学校，我会在周末回家。我们学校最近正在修建，工人在白天开工，机器发出很大的噪音，我不能集中精力学习。这不是最坏的情况，当我在中午休息的时候，机器仍然在运转，我无法入睡。所以当我起来的时候，我的头脑无法好好的思考，我整天想要睡觉。学校应该限制工人的时间，他们应该在午休时候停止工作。这对学生来说才是合理的。

Watching anime is one of the favorite things I like to do. Some one may say watching anime is a waste of time and a kind of naive thing, but I dont think so. In fact, I can learn a lot from watching anime. For example , never give up , believe , confidence , intelligent and so on. I like the person in the anime too. Because they are usually stronger or cooler than the real people. They can make our dream come true. 看动漫是我最喜欢做的事之一。 也许有人会说，看动漫是浪费时间和幼稚的事情，但我不这样认为。事实上，我可以从看动漫中学到很多东西，比如说，从不言弃，信任，自信，智慧等等。 我也喜欢那些动漫里的人物，因为他们通常比真人更强壮或更帅气。他们可以去实现我们的梦想。

The wind, the sunshine, the blue sky and the happy boys and girls formed a wonderful picture! At noon, we cooked seafood like crabs, shrimps, seashells and so on. They are all so delicious.

[初中英语作文：我找到了自信

对于我们农村地区的学生来说，英语写作非常困难。尤其在每一次的英语考试中，英语写作题型总是必不可少的，小编收集了初中期末英语作文的写作技巧，欢迎阅读。

一、学生写作过程中出现的现状

1.词汇量太少

词汇是英语写作必不可少的基本要素，要写好一篇作文以表达自己的思想，必须以足够的词汇量为基础，但实际上大多数学生掌握的词汇量都达不到规定的要求，因而在写作时也就不能随心所欲地表达自己的思想。出现的问题往往有拼写错误，影响理解;词语误用，表达不准确;某一词语反复使用，语言表达缺乏变式，文章显得单调乏味;文章中出现大量“造词”，让人看了啼笑皆非等。

语法规则和句型句式是英语写作涉及的另一基本要素。学生英语写作中出现的“大错”又多半是由语法错误引起的，学生在写作中语法不规范、句子结构混乱、含义不清等情况屡见不鲜，Chinese English现象更是不乏其中，所以词汇量和语法问题是中学生英语写作时首先要解决的问题。

2.词汇错误较多

学生在写作的时候，中式英语Chinglish ：如There are many people would like to go on a vacation. I by bike to school every day. 2、词汇错误：错别字、近义词混淆、词性误用3、词组、句型使用不正确，缺乏重点句型的使用：如I spent one hour to read the book yesterday. 4、时态、语态、人称把握不正确(审题不正确)。思维模式总是先汉语，后转化为英语，可能他想到了句子该怎样写，句型也知道的，但却有个别单词不会。如：“对我来说学英语是困难的”这个句子可能他想到了，句子结构“it is+adj for sb to do sth”也知道，但里面的形容词difficult不会写，导致句子表达含糊，以至于整篇文章错词百出，面目全非。

3.写出的长句达不到表达效果

一般的英语应试作文，总会给出汉语提示，学生写作也是从提示上入手，有的提示意思较长，所以学生写的时候会直接翻译，但对太长的句子又没有驾驭的能力，导致整个句子错误。

4.听力较弱影响写作能力

我们所面临的是一群农村学生，他们没有特别好的条件练习听力，每次的练习时间仅仅是每节英语课上，听听力的时间是在太少。有位作家说过：“不写没有读过的语言，不读没有说

的语言，不说没有听过的语言”。很明显，通过听的渠道获得语言信息及语言感受在英语学习中基础的基础。听不来也就写不上。

5.单词书写不规范，卷面书写较乱

对于大多数学生来说，格式、大小写、标点，书写不规范：句首字母大写不注意，使用从句时不会使用标点、大小写等)。如：After he went back home. He cooked supper.，考试时把单词写整齐的很少，学生普遍认为只要把单词写正确就可以得分，虽然觉得自己写的作文还可以，但卷子发下之后却没有得到期望的分数，而有的同学写作能力较差但书写整齐，写作得分也不是很低。

二、提高写作的方法

1.词汇的积累

初中学生在阅读理方面最大的障碍就是词汇量的缺乏，而扩大词汇量绝非死记硬背就能做到。最有效的方法就是大量接触各种不同体裁的英语文章，利用“在句中记，在文中记”的方法来积累词汇。因此我们指导学生依据英语报刊的特点，按栏目、话题、题材、体裁归类收集常用词，将出现频率较高的常用词汇积累到单词本子上，查字典写例句，初步学会这些单词的运用，放在身边，利用零散时间反复记忆，加强印象。

同时拟定时以单选、完型、阅读等形式考察学生对这些单词的掌握情况，通过测试和竞赛的方式进一步激发大家学习词汇的热情。不过，由于课程的时间安排问题，测试的工作开展较少，这也是实验工作中的一个不足。

2.熟练记住单词

( 1.) 巩固单词拼写，培养组句能力。 词汇匮乏是妨碍英语写作的最大障碍之一，有话想说，无词可写是大部分学生的苦恼。因此，我要求学生坚持每天听写、默写、循环记忆单词，掌握巩固词汇。还要求学生给出与单词有关的同义、近义、反义和词形相似的词，使词汇量得到最大限度的复现。如：反义词appear/disappear, crowded/uncrowded, polite/impolite/rude. 词形相似的词except/expect, chance/change/challenge. 还以某一词为中心，写出该词的不同形式或词性，组成典型的句型，从而不断丰富词汇和句型。如拼写单词die 时，不但要写出其过去式过去分词died，而且要写出其他词性(death, dead, dying), 再分别组句，如：The old man died two years ago. He has been dead for two years. His death made his dog very sad. It is dying.又如写到易混淆的词pay, spend, cost, take 时，可以多种方式表达句意。He paid 20 yuan for the book. He spent 20 yuan on the book. He spent 20 yuan buying the book. The book cost him 20 yuan. It takes him 20 minutes to read the book every day.等等。这样,通过大量的词汇练习不仅仅能有效地积累词汇，还为组句打下了基础，同时还能训练学生的发散性思维和总结、归纳、比较的能力，为学生正确使用词句奠定了良好的基础。以上这些机械操练虽然枯燥，但很有必要，它是能力培养的基础。在词句落实的基础上，可向学生提出稍高的要求，如写出高质量的句子： What a happy family I have ! (I have a happy family.) The story is so interesting that everyone likes it.( The story is very interesting. Everyone likes it. ) He didn’t come to school, because he was ill. (He was ill. He didn’t come to school.) I am good at not only English but also math.(I am good at English and I am good at math ，too. )( 2、) 阅读背诵精彩段落，围绕单元话题设计书面表达。 阅读是写作的 熟练记住每一话题的单词。熟记单词后让他们能够熟练的运用，能够把重点单词用来造句。然后熟记词组，特别是能够熟练的运用词组，能够用词组熟练造句。用词组和单词连成简单句，只要学生将句子表达清楚，语意连贯，就是一篇好的英语文章。

3.熟练使用简单句

简单句对学生来说相对好掌握些，可以要求学生们能够熟练划分主语、谓语、宾语。 正确掌握并列连词andbutor等词。在写作中要求学生不能随意发挥，也不能逐字逐句的翻译所给的文章，要求学生能抓住题中所给的条件，只要考生能将题中所给的要点全部表达清楚，而没有遗漏，在写作中并且注意到语言的连贯，那么就是一篇很好的英语文章。

4.加强听力训练，促进写作

目前英语听力教材使用的具体做法是：事先提出每课生词，教师领读几遍。排除生词障碍后，第一遍学生主让学生在课后反复听课文内容，并逐字逐句写下。每周星期五布置，星期一用课堂时间，教师将该文念一、二遍，让学生听写，教师收上来查阅，加以评讲。通过这种训练，提高学生的听力水平和表达能力。

5.书写规范，促进写作

关于书写的卷面整洁与否，字体如何，是老生常谈话题。可是由于印象分数的一分半分之差，很可能影响一生。在此处丢分纯属不值得，这也是笔者把它放在第一位的原因。在教学过程中，应坚持要求学生书写规范，写好匀笔斜体行书，注意连写，以及文面美观。可以采用出专刊的形式，让全班同学都参加英语书法评比，从而激发学生练习英语书写的兴趣，养成良好的书写习惯。

综上所述，在英语写作中听、说、读、写应同步发展。写作是一种语言输出形式，只有语言输入大于语言输出，语言输出才有可能。英语写作训练作为英语综合能力训练之一，是与英语的听说读是不可分割的，它们是相互影响、相互作用的有机统一体，必须注重听、说、读、写能力的同步发展。

比如笔者实施多年的“五分钟课前训练”：在上正课前五分钟里，要学生用英语讲述一个故事(积累素材);或者课前朗读一篇短小精悍的文章，让大家课后模仿;或者就大家平时关心的话题写一个发言稿或演讲稿进行课前发言;或者让学生自立主题，围绕自己喜欢的主题写一段话。这种课前训练取得了很好的效果。

美国作家舒伯特指出:“Reading is writing”，即：阅读能够促进写作，因为对学生而言,他们对生活的体验、对人生的认识大多是从书本上获得，从大量的阅读中获取的，阅读不仅能帮助学生积累思想,也能帮助他们积累语言素材。“You ought to read very carefully. Not only very carefully，but also aloud，and that again and again till you know the passage by heart and write it as if it were your own.” 这就清楚地说明了熟读成诵对写作是多么重要。所以要想写出好文章,就必须大量读书，它是写作的基础。

阅读对写作固然重要，但其它形式写作训练同样不可忽视，英语写作实践是英语写作理论转化为写作能力的“中介”。英语写作要突出实践，正如学习游泳一样，写作的能力是练出来的。课外练笔是课堂写作训练最有益的补充，因为课堂时间有限，仅靠课堂写作训练培养学生的写作能力是不够的。作文不是“学”出来的，而是“写”出来的。学生必须进行大量的写作练习才能掌握并且灵活运用各种写作技能，而且写作技能只有在不断写作的过程中才能逐步得到提高和完善。

此外,学生的英语语言意识和英语思维能力的培养也需要大量的练习。可见,课外练笔非常必要，应该给予重视。课外练笔的形式多种多样，可采用让学生写英语日记、写英语周记，教师也可有意识地给学生提供一些尽量贴近生活的时尚话题，如奥运会、环境保护等，让学生在课外习作。

When I was very small, I always looked forward to the coming of Christmas

Day, because it meant that I would have presents early in the morning. It was

such an exciting thing for me. My mother told me that if I was doing well in the

year, the Santa Claus would give me bonus. I believed in it and I acted

politely. I got my present every Christmas morning and I was so proud of myself.

Now I have grown up and realize the truth of Santa Claus. I am so thankful of my

parents, as they make up the story and help me to be an excellent kid.

One evening several years ago,I went to a concert with my friend.When we got to the concert I suddenly found I lost my ticket on the way.I was walking backwards to see to see if I could found it in the street,there the ticket was no way to be found.I felt very sad and started crying.Then a guy saw me and asked me what went wrong.I told him about the lost ticket.He then put his hand in his pocket and pulled out his own ticket and gave it to me,and said “you can have mine,because I’ve seen the concert.” I was so touched and before I could react,he hurried away and disappeared.I wish I could find this guy and say thank you to him.

Of all the colors, I love white best. White is the color of snow and cloud.

Snow in winter is clean,pure and holy. When it is melted, it moistens everything

and the whole earth. White clouds are hanging on the blue sky. We can dream a

lot on such a nice day. White is a color of purity and calmness. It can make a

harmony picture with any other colors. This is white, a selfless color.

Dear Headmaster,

I am the minister of students‘ life in the Student Union. On behalf of all the students, I am writing to you to give our opinions about the canteen.

Our canteen has something satisfactory and something unsatisfactory as well. To our satisfaction, many kinds of the food are supplied to us. Besides this, the food is cheap and tastes good. We all enjoy the food. And the surroundings in the canteen have also been improved. But the quantity of a helping they give is not enough. The seats are not enough as well.Some students have no seats when eating.

Finally we advise them to improve the quality of the food and their service. We will feel very happy if these problems can be solved.

Yours,

XXX

尊敬的校长：

我是学生会生活部部长。我代表所有学生给您写信反映一下我们对食堂的意见。

食堂有令人满意的一面也有令人不满意的一面；令我们满意的是，食堂给我们提供了很多种类的食物。另外，饭菜价格便宜，味道可口，我们很喜欢。而且食堂环境也已经改善了。但是他们给的食物的分量不足。食堂的座位也不够，一些学生吃饭时没有座位。我们希望学校会考虑增添些座位。

最后我们建议他们改进饭菜的质量，改善服务。如果这些问题能被解决我们会感到非常高兴。

尊敬您的 XXX
