今天，我想和大家谈谈小学生该不该上网。

如今社会，不会用电脑可是太悲催了。你不会用电脑，你就思维就会被限制；你不会用电脑，没有qq群，就不会事先了解班级的事情，也不能，聊天方便；你不会用电脑，整天就是一味地看书写作业什么的，也是会烦的。总之，小学生对电脑没有一个是抱着厌恶态度的。

但大人总是反对我们玩电脑，理由也总是如长江流水滔滔不绝的。说玩电脑有碍学习，伤害视力············但是，只要你是节制地玩，不要一玩就是几个小时，伤害视力这一点完全可以排除。至于有碍学习嘛，我们上网又不是一直玩游戏玩游戏玩游戏，也是会去了解一下新闻什么的，上qq跟同学聊聊天，也并不是那么不好的事情。

电脑还是个知识库，有什么不会的，百度一下，就茅塞顿开了。海量信息，不用担心没有你想要的答案。

就拿我来说吧！我在家里大家知道的，我作息时间都是7点吃完晚饭，8点前做完作业，8点半到9点写完日记，聊聊天，上床看书睡觉。加上周六周日每天玩2小时，视力照样没退呀？也许这跟我周一到周五加起来至少打3小时乒乓球有关系吧！顺便说说，多玩电脑的人最好去打打乒乓球，可以保护视力。而且我上网又不是都玩电脑，日记的时间也占了一半之多的。写日记，耽误学习？

现在的游戏也不是暴力的啊，黄色的啊，不然4399早就封了。它们都是锻炼我们的思维能力的，只是方向不同。而这种由游戏这种直击我们心灵的锻炼方式，往往比书面教学和口头教学来得更有效。而且现在游戏都分关的，后面越难，我们就越想挑战，久而久之，我们的思维反应能力就会更上一层楼。难道不是吗？我玩电脑，基本都玩造梦3。里面武器需要多开打造，强化。因为成功率可真的是微乎其微的说。强到自己心愿的成功率就只有1/1000。这还更锻炼了我们的毅力。如果没有持久了毅力，恐怕早就离了！

所以，小学生上网不仅不会影响到学习，还反而可以提高我们的能力。长大来说，我们因为电脑了解了那麽多新闻，不再天真，思维缜密，在现在这种人心叵测的社会中市有百利而无一害的。

现在这种信息化社会，小学生上网的利益是大于弊端的。小学开始上网，可以让我们插上知识的翅膀，跟上社会进步的脚步，让将来的成功之路走的更轻松。

今年国庆，让我十分难忘，长阳的美景永远留在了我的心中。

10月3日，我来到了美丽的长阳，来一览清江的秀丽。一上船，人山人海――清江真不愧为度假胜地呀!我走出船仓，来观赏清江美景。啊!清江的水真静啊!静得像一面镜子;清江的水真绿啊!绿得像一块无暇的翡翠;清江的水真清啊!清得能看见江底的沙石。船儿激起的浪花，漾起一层层波纹。鸟儿自由飞翔，猴子尽情活动，真是“船在江上走，人在画中游”。我来了一个深呼吸，啊!空气中混合泥土的芳香，置身于大自然之中，使我心潮澎湃。我拿起相机，把美景留在了相机里，留在脑海里，留在心里。

“尊敬的乘客们!我们已经到站了!”导游说。我们上了岸，吃了一顿农家饭后，又去登山。一会儿，我们就来到了山脚。看着巍峨的大山，我突然觉得自己十分渺小，但我一定会征服山峰的。于是，我努力地爬着，一路上，看见了四季常青的松树，亭亭玉立的野菊花，和许多奇花异草簇拥着大山，真可谓秋高气爽，云淡日历。沿着石阶不一会儿就来到了山顶。站在山顶俯视下面，一片青山绿水的自然风光，霎时，一切劳累、烦恼都抛在脑后，一脸神清气爽，有说不出的舒畅!

青山的巍峨，绿水的清澈，加上无尽的舒畅，给出我留下了深刻的印象，给我的国庆增添了无限光辉，我永远忘不了。

After a happy winter vacation, the new year began again. We all gathered together and talked happily about the interesting news in the winter vacation.

All of us have fun and laugh. We cant forget the good time of the new year. New years Eve, as usual, fireworks day, we also say that all sorts of gossip to play their own fireworks, a long pole fireworks blooming like chrysanthemum, such as bright pearl of a large fireworks, little and dainty broken beads...... Jiang Zehong is talking about, he has never seen everyone "Fu" big fireworks, called "big fortune". The "Pi" with a bang, a fireball into the sky, "Mao Ba Ba" fried into a big red shining "Fu". After a while, the word "happiness" has become a meteor, dancing posture, he slipped to the door, just like a large fortune, the dog wangwang! Lets listen to the itch in our heart, and we want to have a look.

On the eve of the new years Eve, for the year, there must be little money. Wang Yi people engage in innovation, the red gifts are hidden. Wang Yi had to turn the house down to the sky and search one by one, not a small corner. Pays off, Wang Yi people find their red envelopes gift in the kitchen, balcony, room finally. Li Yans mother-in-law is the most fond of Li Yan, the stuff in the plate, and the most money for her. Li Yan is also very love her mother-in-law, not only sensible and well behaved, and flattering, before leaving, dont forget to wish small mother-in-law: "good luck, longevity, happiness as immense as the Eastern Sea, everything is well, the dog wangwang!"

The breath of the country is thicker than the city. When Zou Jianing burned incense in a country temple, he was lucky to see a lion and a dragon. I saw the lion majestic-looking, yaotouhuangnao, vivid, it stared at the headlight gun like eyes, went to the east to the West in the jump, is pleased to run wild. I do not know what time from the lions sprang out of a dragon, it was glittering, restless dragon flying up and down, the two. With the sound of drums, dragon and lion gradually walked away. But its fresh enough for the children we grew up in the city.

There are many interesting things during the winter vacation, Li Tian heap a snowman full of personality. Huang Yuanhao put a big kite of one meter long. Zhu Zhendong fished the fish patiently. Yao Qing made a new house at his uncles house. Jiang Danwen wanted to dig the shepherds purse, dug a basket of wild herbs...... The happy winter vacation is over. It is sure that this summer vacation will have more interesting things to happen.

度过一个愉快的寒假，新年又开始了。大家又都聚在一起，兴致勃勃地谈论起寒假生活中的趣闻。

大家津津乐道，有说有笑，对过年的美好时光久久不能忘怀。除夕夜，照例是放烟花爆竹的日子，大家也七嘴八舌地说出了那天自己玩的烟花，有绽开似菊的长竿烟花，灿烂如明珠般的大礼花，小巧玲珑的碎珠……姜泽宏更是侃侃而谈，原来他放了个大家从未见过的“福”字大礼花，叫“大福临门”。那随着“噼叭”一声巨响，一团火球窜上了与天空，“噼哩叭啦”地炸成了一个大红色的闪耀着金光的“福”字。过一会儿，这个“福”字又变成了一颗颗流星，舞动着身姿，向他家门口滑落，还真像大福临门，狗年旺旺！听得我们心里直痒痒，也想放个看看。

过除夕，拜大年，肯定少不了压岁钱。王苡人家搞了个创新，把红包礼物都藏了起来。王苡人只好把家里翻个底朝天，逐一逐个地搜寻，不放过一个小角落。皇天不负有心人，王苡人终于在厨房、阳台、书房里找到了自己的红包礼物。李燕的小婆婆最疼爱李燕了，压岁盘里的东西随便挑，给她的压岁钱也最多。李燕也很喜欢她的小婆婆，不仅懂事乖巧，而且讨人欢心，临走时，还不忘祝小婆婆：“福如东海，寿比南山，吉祥如意，万事顺心，狗年旺旺！”

乡村的过年气息比城市还浓。邹佳凝在乡下的寺庙里烧香时，有幸看见了舞狮、舞龙的人群。只见那狮子威风凛凛、摇头晃脑、活灵活现，它瞪着大灯炮似眼睛，窜到东跳到西，犹如在高兴地撒野。不知从什么时候狮群里窜出了一条龙，它浑身金光闪闪，好动的龙上下翻飞，来了个二龙戏珠。随着敲锣打鼓的声音，龙与狮群渐渐走远了。不过，这对我们在城市里长大的孩子来说是够新鲜的。

寒假里还有许多有趣的事，李恬堆了个个性十足的雪人。黄苑皓放了个一米多长的燕形大风筝。朱振栋耐心地钓了次鱼。姚庆在舅舅家闹新房。姜丹雯本想挖荠菜，结果挖了一蓝子的野菜……愉快的寒假结束了，想必今年的暑假也一定会有更有趣的事发生吧！

The Lantern Festival falls on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month, usually

in February or March in the Gregorian calendar. As early as the Western Han

Dynasty (206 BC-AD 25), it had become a festival with great significance.

This days important activity is watching lanterns. Throughout the Han

Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220), Buddhism flourished in China. One emperor heard that

Buddhist monks would watch sarira, or remains from the cremation of Buddhas

body, and light lanterns to worship Buddha on the 15th day of the 1st lunar

month, so he ordered to light lanterns in the imperial palace and temples to

show respect to Buddha on this day. Later, the Buddhist rite developed into a

grand festival among common people and its influence expanded from the Central

Plains to the whole of China.

Till today, the lantern festival is still held each year around the

country. Lanterns of various shapes and sizes are hung in the streets,

attracting countless visitors. Children will hold self-made or bought lanterns

to stroll with on the streets, extremely excited. "Guessing lantern riddles"is

an essential part of the Festival.

Lantern owners write riddles on a piece of paper and post them on the

lanterns. If visitors have solutions to the riddles, they can pull the paper out

and go to the lantern owners to check their answer. If they are right, they will

get a little gift. The activity emerged during peoples enjoyment of lanterns in

the Song Dynasty (960-1279). As riddle guessing is interesting and full of

wisdom, it has become popular among all social strata.

People will eat yuanxiao, or rice dumplings, on this day, so it is also

called the "Yuanxiao Festival."Yuanxiao also has another name, tangyuan. It is

small dumpling balls made of glutinous rice flour with rose petals, sesame, bean

paste, jujube paste, walnut meat, dried fruit, sugar and edible oil as filling.

Tangyuan can be boiled, fried or steamed. It tastes sweet and delicious. What’s

more, tangyuan in Chinese has a similar pronunciation with "tuanyuan”, meaning

reunion. So people eat them to denote union, harmony and happiness for the

family.

In the daytime of the Festival, performances such as a dragon lantern

dance, a lion dance, a land boat dance, a yangge dance, walking on stilts and

beating drums while dancing will be staged. On the night, except for magnificent

lanterns, fireworks form a beautiful scene. Most families spare some fireworks

from the Spring Festival and let them off in the Lantern Festival. Some local

governments will even organize a fireworks party. On the night when the first

full moon enters the New Year, people become really intoxicated by the imposing

fireworks and bright moon in the sky.

The summer holiday is coming soon. What will I do in my summer holiday? I am going to go on a trip with my parents.

I’m going to Dongguan Park in my summer holiday. I will go with my parents. We are going to eat good food and see the flowers in Dongguan Park. We are going to climb mountains, too. We can have a picnic there and we can read magazines there, too. Of course, We will take many photos in the park.

Last week, I saw an Interesting cartoon and I was attracted by the

beautiful house. The house was in the top of the mountain. Every morning, the

main character could see the whole landscape and village. It is such a beautiful

house for me. In the future, I want to have a house like this, trees and flowers

are around.

[小学关于国庆的英语作文

今天是国庆节，是祖国母亲__周岁的生日，举国上下喜气洋洋。市政府举行隆重的升旗仪式，一大早，我们全家人怀着激动的心情到市政府看升国旗。

一进市政府大门，只见市政府大院里早已人山人海了，有白发苍苍的爷爷奶奶，有手拿小国旗的小朋友们，有精神抖擞的武警战士，还有穿着工作服的叔叔阿姨们……金灿灿的阳光洒满大地，花坛里五颜六色的花朵开得格外鲜艳。

七点整，雄壮的音乐声响起，三位英姿飒爽的解放军叔叔迈着矫健的步伐走上国旗台，全场的人们屏住呼吸，双眼注视着国旗。雄壮的国歌声响起来了，护旗手把手一挥，鲜红的国旗冉冉升起。国旗升来了！升起来了！看着庄严的五星红旗，我心里感到无比自豪，骄傲。国旗是革命先辈用鲜血染红的，我们一定要认真学习，为她增光添彩。鲜艳的五星红旗在瓦蓝瓦蓝的天空的衬托下，显得特别庄严。

国旗升在祖国的蓝天，也升在我们每一个中国人的心里。

今天是国庆节的第四天了，回想前三天，我和爸爸妈妈姥姥，在沂南竹泉村，温泉，农场度过了一段欢乐的时光，昨天我从沂南回来，妈妈说又要给我一个惊喜，“是什么惊喜呀?”我高兴地问，妈妈告诉

我，带我去省杂技团看杂技——飞旋。

晚上我们很早就去了省杂技团，门口有个金色的小丑雕塑立在大石头上面，非常惹人喜爱。进去以后，看到大厅里金碧辉煌，还放着好听的音乐，舞台上亮着五颜六色的灯，还喷着彩色的烟雾，像仙境

一样。

演出开始了，三个男演员在空中拽着长长地绸带飞快地旋转，表演各种各样的动作，非常惊险;还看到一些女演员拿着几根细棍在转盘子，转着转着还有几个人搭起来继续转;还有一些男演员表演跳圈

，有一个男演员一不小心把圈碰倒了，但是他脸上仍然还挂着笑容，很值得我们学习。接下来我还看了抖空竹，扔草帽，跳大绳，蹬鼓，我觉得最精彩的是骑自行车，好多人都跳上了同一辆车，她们展

开手臂像孔雀开屏，有个演员“蹦蹬”摔到了地上，我一下子明白了，原来她们也很不容易，她们都经历了刻苦的训练，才能表现得那么好。

这场演出很精彩，让我特别难忘，我渡过了一个欢乐的国庆节!

转眼一个学习又要结束了，大家都期盼着在假期中踏踏实实的玩的愉快，下面是小编帮大家整理的假期旅行英语作文，希望大家喜欢。
