+ 加入清单Dear mother:
Hello
Dear mother, you have given me life, and my body has run through your
blood. It is your milk, heart, blood, tears and sweat that have become the
greatest liquid of human life and have nurtured me. It is you who feed me from a
hungry child to a primary school student.
Dear mother, there are many kinds of love in the world, but maternal love
is the most selfless, sincere, broadest and most merciful. When praising the
affection of human beings, you are the eternal theme. When you sing the sincere
love of the world, your love is called the first love in the world. Selfless is
your character, dedication is your feelings. You are the embodiment of goodness.
You are a symbol of greatness. Everything beautiful in women is condensed in
your image.
My dear mother, though the hardships of life have made your hands rough,
however, these hands are still so gentle, it always soothes my heart and gives
me infinite comfort; although the heavy work makes your head white hair, but the
body is still like the wing, caring for me all the time. The hard work of hard
work makes your face wrinkle. However, the face is still so kind. It teaches me
the true meaning of life and gives me confidence and strength at all times.
My dear mother, you are the resting place for your daughter. You are the
harbor for your daughter to escape from the wind. With you, our home will be
peaceful and warm. With you, our family will be happy and happy.
Dear mother, your great love is the greatest and selfless, your love in the
heart of the daughter turned from the bottom of the heart from the bottom of the
heart out - only the mother is good, the mother of the child like a treasure,
into the mothers embrace can not enjoy happiness.

Dear Customer Service Representative,
I am writing to comp[ain about the bad delivery service of your
company.
The IBM Desktop computer we ordered from your store two weeks ago finally
arrived yesterday. There were not any signs of damage to the packing case at
all, but when we opened it, we found, much to our surprise, that the back cover
had been cracked and the screen had been scratched.
In view of this, I have decided to make a formal complaint against your
delivery service. I sincerely hope that you will replace this computer as soon
as possible. If this is not possible, I will have no alternative but to insist
on a full refund.
I would appreciate anything you can do to help us in this matter.
Yours truly,

+ 加入清单Take a cup of tea and fetch a book, the house is full of Aton Johns
vicissitudes of singing, calm down and enjoy this rare leisure time.
Heavy heat from the fragrant tea, flicking my cheeks, itchy, but I cant
take care of it, because I was devoted to the book...
The book has a different position in everyones heart. People who have a
desire for knowledge think that the book is a dinner, especially needed; for
some people who are busy with work, it is a pack of snacks. Some energy...
The book is a snack type in my mind. It is for my entertainment. Of course,
I can supplement and broaden my knowledge while I am busy. It made me appreciate
Qin Wenjuns humor, Guo Jingmings romance, and Zhang Xiaoxians faint sorrow. The
book gives me a huge vocabulary and gives me a deeper understanding of
literature: literature is not the boring articles in "textbooks". Literature can
be funny and humorous, literature can be romantic and beautiful, and literature
can also be pretentious.
From the thin "good children" in childhood to the thick "junior literature
and art", from the interesting "Andersens fairy tale" to the endless aftertaste
of "The Dream of the Red Chamber", I also understand the value of various books.
After reading some campus novels, I feel that there is a lot of excitement.
After a few months, I basically have no impression. But classical literature can
not only increase your literary culture, but also learn some incomprehensible
ancient poetry. Wouldn’t it be fun?

篇4:关于元宵节英语

+ 加入清单There are many different beliefs about the origin of the Lantern Festival.
But one thing for sure is that it had something to do with celebrating and
cultivating positive relationship between people, families, nature and the
higher beings they believed were responsible for bringing/returning the light
each year.
One legend tells us that it was a time to worship Taiyi, the God of Heaven
in ancient times. The belief was that the God of Heaven controlled the destiny
of the human world. He had sixteen dragons at his beck and call and he decided
when to inflict drought, storms, famine or pestilence upon human beings.
Beginning with Qinshihuang, the first emperor to unite the country, all the
emperors ordered splendid ceremonies each year. The emperor would ask Taiyi to
bring favorable weather and good health to him and his people. Emperor Wudi of
the Han Dynasty directed special attention to this event. In 104 BC, he
proclaimed it as one of the most important celebrations and the ceremony would
last throughout the night. They clean it all up in the morning.
Another legend associates the Lantern Festival with Taoism. Tianguan is the
Taoist god responsible for good fortune. His birthday falls on the 15th day of
the first lunar month. It is said that Tianguan likes all types of
entertainment, so followers prepare various kinds of activities during which
they pray for good fortune.
Yet another common legend dealing with the origins of the Lantern Festival
speaks of a beautiful bird that flew down to earth from heaven, which was hunted
and killed by some villagers. This angered the Jade Emperor in Heaven because
the bird was his favorite one. Therefore, he planned a storm of fire to destroy
the village on the 15th lunar day. The Jade Emperors daughter heard of this
plan, and warned the villagers of her father’s plan to destroy their village.
The village was in turmoil because nobody knew how should they escape their
imminent destruction.
However, a wise man from another village suggested that every family should
hang red lanterns around their houses, set up bonfires on the streets, and
explode firecrackers on the 14th, 15th, and 16th lunar days. This would give the
village the appearance of being on fire to the Jade Emperor. On the 15th lunar
day, troops sent down from heaven whose mission was to destroy the village saw
that the village was already ablaze, and returned to heaven to report to the
Jade Emperor. Satisfied, the Jade Emperor decided not to burn down the village.
From that day on, people celebrate the anniversary on the 15th lunar day every
year by carrying red lanterns on the streets and exploding firecrackers and
fireworks.
There are many stories on how this festival was created. One other story is
about a maid. In the Han Dynasty, Mr. Eastern was a favorite advisor of the
emperor. One winter day, he went to the garden and heard a little girl crying
and getting ready to jump into a well to commit suicide. Mr. Eastern stopped her
and asked why. She said she was a maid in the emperors palace and her name was
Yuan-Xiao.
She never had the chance to meet her family after she started worked at the
palace. She missed them so much every 12th lunar month. If she couldnt have the
chance to show her filial piety in this life, she would rather die. Mr. Eastern
promised her to find a way so she could reunion with her family. Mr. Eastern
left the palace and set up a fortune-telling stall on the street and disguised
himself as a fortuneteller. Because of his reputation, many people asked for
their fortunes.
But every one got the same prediction - a severe fire accident on the 15th
lunar day. The rumor spread quickly. Everyone was worried about the future and
asked Mr. Eastern for help. Mr. Eastern said, "On the 13th lunar day, the God of
Fire will send a fairy lady in red to burn down the city. If you see a lady in
red wearing green pants riding a black horse on that day, you should ask for her
mercy." On that day, Yuan-Xiao pretended to be the red fairy lady. When people
asked for her help, she said, "Im the messenger of the God of Fire and came to
check on the city and Im going to set up fire on 15th. This is an order from
Jade Emperor. He will watch from the heavens.
I will give you a copy of the imperial decree from the God of Fire. You
should go to ask your emperor to find a way out." After she left, people went to
the palace to show the emperor the decree which reads "The capital city is in
trouble. Fire burns on the palace, and fire from Heaven burns all night long on
the 15th." The emperor of Han Dynasty was very shocked. He called and asked Mr.
Eastern for advice. After pondering for a while, Mr. Eastern said, "I heard that
the God of Fire likes to eat Tang-Yuan (Sweet dumpling). Does Yuan-Xiao often
cook Tang-Yuan for you? On the 15th lunar day, let Yuan-Xiao make Tang-Yuan.
Your Majesty will take charge of the worshipping ceremony and you will give
an order to every house to prepare Tang-Yuan to worship the God of Fire at the
same time. Also, deliver another order to ask every house in the city to hang
red lantern and explode fire crackers. Lastly, everyone in the palace and people
outside the city should carry their lanterns on the street to watch the lantern
decoration and fireworks. If everything goes this way, the Jade Emperor would be
deceived.
Then everyone can avoid the fire accident." The emperor happily followed
the plan. Lanterns were everywhere in the capital city on the night of the 15th
lunar day. People were walking on the street. Fire crackers kept making lots of
noise. It looked like the entire city was on fire. Yuan-Xiaos parents went into
the palace to watch the lantern decorations, and Yuan-Xiao made a big lantern
and wrote her name on the lantern. They happily reunited together after her
parents called her name. Everybody was safe during the night. The emperor of Han
Dynasty had a new order that people should do the same thing every year. Since
Yuan-Xiao cooked the best Tan-Yuan, people called the day Yuan-Xiao
Festival.
Young people were chaperoned in the streets in hopes of finding love.
Matchmakers acted busily in hopes of pairing couples. The brightest lanterns
were symbolic of good luck and hope. As time has passed, the festival no longer
has such implications.
Those who do not carry lanterns often enjoy watching informal lantern
parades. In addition to eating tangyuan (simplified Chinese: 汤圆; traditional
Chinese: 湯圓; pinyin: tāngyuán), another popular activity at this festival is
guessing lantern riddles (which became part of the festival during the Tang
Dynasty), which often contain messages of good fortune, family reunion, abundant
harvest, prosperity and love.

read.In a library,there are books on different subjects,such as Chinese
history,fine art,science,English literature,and so on.There are also works fo

The public libraries are crowded with people on weekdays as well as Sundays

+ 加入清单It seems like a silly question, anyone in sane would give a hand to the elderly who fell. But in China, this question is becoming tricky. Many news report that there are some old people not just fell, they do it on purpose. Usually, they walk on a crowdy street, and pretend to faint or just lay down on the ground, intend to accuse the one who comes to help as a perpetrator and blackmail him/her for the treatment fee. Many people have fell for that and had to pay as there is no witness to prove their innocence. As for these negative news, people is afraid to help those old people in need, that makes some of them who are in real trouble could not get help in time. I once asked one of my friends: “Why the old people turn bad? If you see one in the street, would you help?” He said: “It is not the old people turn bad, it is the bad people turn old. I will video him/her to make a statement first, then decide if I would help.”
这似乎是个愚蠢的问题,任何清醒的人遇到跌倒的老人都会伸出援助之手。但在中国,这个问题变得棘手。很多新闻报道说有些老人不只是跌倒而已,他们是故意这么做的。通常他们会走到人潮涌动的街头,假装晕倒或者是直接躺在地上,想要指控那些来帮助他的人为肇事者,敲诈他们要治疗费。很多人都上当了,由于没有目击者证明他们的清白,他们被迫支付了费用。正因为这些负面新闻,人们害怕去帮助那些需要帮助的老人,也因此造成了那些真正有困难的老人没有得到及时的帮助。我曾经问我一个朋友:“为什么现在的老人变坏了?如果你在街上看到这样的老人你会帮助吗?”他说:“不是老人变坏了,是坏人变老了。我会先录像让他做一个声明,再决定是否帮助他。”

+ 加入清单When the national entrance examination is over, people always pay more
attention to those who are enrolled by colleges and universities. Those who
failed the examination are treated coldly. Being enrolled by colleges and
universities is, of course, worth congratulating. But giving the successful
candidates excessive praise and neglecting those who failed the examination
might send the wrong message: young people do not have a bright future unless
they go to college or university.
Teachers, parents and society, therefore, should give more attention to
students failing the examination. They are in more urgent need of understanding,
warmth and encouragement. We should tell them that to go to college is not the
only way to success, and that, if they make enough effort, they can still
develop talents in other occupations that will serve society.
Personally, the country’s economic development requires not only
specialized scientists and technical experts, but also knowledge-based workers
and skilled laborers. After some vocational training, these senior high school
students can also become backbones in their own fields and contribute their
wisdom to our society.

+ 加入清单I think Mid-Autumn Day is an old traditional festival in China。 Everybody likes it because its a family get-together。 You see it is called"Mid-Autumn Day", so it often es in September or October。 It is on the 15th of the 8th of the lunar month。 Now, lets say something about this interesting festival。
Firstly, Id like to say something about the moon。 I like it very much because I want to be an astronaut in the future。 That day the moon is round, big, just like a beautiful plate hanging on the blue cloth。 When I see the moon, I will remember the ancient myths——the godess Chang Er and her little rabbit are playing under the tree which Wu Gang grows。 I will also think about Armstrongs first moonwalk。 I will also miss the friends in Tai-wan island, in Macao and Chinese people who are abroad。 I know they are missing us very much, too。
Secondly, I11 say something about the tradition on Mid-Autumn Day。 Look!Theres a big tree in a garden of a Chinese fami-ly。 All the family members are sitting around a big table under the tree in the open air。 They are eating the mooncakes and admiring the full moon in the sky。 That is a family reunion dinner。 The mooncakes and the moon represent the love from a family。 I think this is one of the most valuable things in the world。
Thirdly,it is a very good opportunity to make three wishes on Mid-Autumn Day。 My wishes are: the first, I, an astronaut in the future, would like to go to the moon one day, and stay with the sky and stars; the second, I hope every person in the world will stay with family, share love from the family forever; the third, I hope everybodys dream will e true。
That is the Mid-Autumn Day in my mind。 I will always re-member: East or West, home is best。
我认为中秋节是中国古老的传统节日。每个人都喜欢它,因为它是一个家庭聚会。你看它被称为“中秋节”,所以通常在九月或十月。这是在农历八月十五日。现在,让我们谈谈这个有趣的节日。
首先,我想谈谈月亮问题。我非常喜欢它,因为我希望将来成为一名宇航员。那天月亮是圆的,大的,就像一块美丽的盘子挂在蓝色的布上。我看到月亮,我会记得古老的神话 - 长女和她的小兔子正在吴刚生长的树下玩耍。我也会想到阿姆斯特朗的第一次月球漫步。我也会想念台湾的朋友们岛上,澳门和国外的中国人。我知道他们也非常想念我们。
其次,我要谈谈中秋节的传统。看!中国家庭的花园里有一棵大树。所有的家庭成员都坐在树下的一张大桌子旁边露天。他们正在吃月饼,欣赏天空中的满月。这是一个家庭聚会晚餐。月饼和月亮代表了一个家庭的爱。我认为这是世界上最有价值的东西之一。
第三,这是一个非常好的机会,在中秋节做出三个愿望。我的愿望是:第一,我,未来的宇航员,有一天想去月球,和天空和星星呆在一起; 第二,我希望世界上每个人都能和家人在一起,永远地与家人分享爱意; 第三,我希望每个人的梦想都是真的。
那是我心中的中秋节。我将永远重新成员:东方或西方,家是最好的。

about what do we have in our youth, the fight, the drink or the love? My answer
is no. What we see from the movie is not true, the plots are exaggerated and
misunderstood. For students, their youth is the process of fighting. They have
studied so hard to realize their dreams. When they are in primary school, they
want to do well and make their parents be proud of them. When they are in middle
school and high school, they need to take part in the exams so as to enter the
better future schools. Even they are in college, they still need to study and
fight for the ideal job. There is no doubt that most people keep fighting for
their future and this is the memory of youth.

篇15:有关英语作文traveling初4
全文共 1719 字
+ 加入清单I think there is no one would say “no” to travel. People love travel, for
it can make them relax and widen their vision. Some people like to travel with
friends, because they want to share the pleasure oftraveling, and they think
the journey will be much easier for they can take care of each other. While some
people like to travel alone, they can go anywhere in anytime. They don’t have to
care about what the partner’s idea. In my opinion, I’m much preferred to travel
with friends, but I always have an urge to travel alone.
Firstly, I was told that travel alone can help people to grow up quickly,
and that’s what I really need. If you travel alone, you have to do everything by
yourself in the journey, for instance, to buy a ticket, to book hotel, and ask
directions. That maybe just a small case for extrovert, but for introvert, like
me, it’s really a big challenge. I remember the first time I go to travel with
friends and my little brother, they did everything, and I just follow and had
fun. I even too shame to check into a hotel, and my little brother did it for
me. I was humiliated for that. So, travel alone could force introvert to do the
things that you don’t dare to do. It could help you to build an outgoing
personality. For extrovert, travel alone could enhance your ability to handle
emergence case.
Secondly, travel alone gives you peace of mind. Image that, you walking
alone in the beach, there are no sounds of human beings, just burst of sound
waves. You close your eyes, enjoy the moment, you will feel peace.
In short, travel alone could be loneliness and dangerous, especially for
girls, but it’s worth having a try for the beautiful scene in the journey, it
seems like all the things are just exist for you.

For example, with the developmet of cities, the using of insecticide and serious pollution, their living areas have become narrowcr and narrower. Many of the wild animals, now are confronted with food crisis. At the same time, man is killing off species just for getting their fur, skin, horns, teeth and meat.
In order to protect our resources of ecology, people should realize that the loss of any species is at least the loss of source of knowledge and a source of natural beauty. There fore, measures of the following should be taken: pollution standards are made to keepdown poisons; killing off certain rare species is prohibited; national parks should be set up as wild life, reserves.
Only if we human beings take some drastic measures can wild animals be preserved.
保护野生动物
许多野生动物正面临绝种的危险,因为它们生活的环境发生了极大的变化。譬 如,随着城市的发展,杀虫剂的使用和严重的污染,野生动物的生活区域变得越来越狭小。许多野生动物目前正面临着食物方面的危机。同时,为了获取野生动物的毛、皮、角、牙齿和肉,人类正在屠杀野生动物。
为了保护生态资源,人们应当意识到任何物种的缺失,至少意味着知识资源和自然美的缺失。因此,应采取以下措施:制订污染标准以降低有毒物质;严禁杀害某些稀有物种;应建立国家公园作为野生动植物保护区。
我们只有采取一些有力措施,才能保护野生动物。

Well,Irish children made Jacks lanterns on October 31st from a large potato or turnip,hollowed out with the sides having holes and lit by little candles inside.And Irish children would carry them as they went from house to house begging for food for the village Halloween festival that honored the Druid god Muck Olla.The Irish name for these lanterns was "Jack with the lantern" or "Jack of the lantern," abbreviated as " Jack-o-lantern" and now spelled "jack-o-lantern."
The traditional Halloween you can read about in most books was just childrens fun night.Halloween celebrations would start in October in every elementary school.
关于万圣节有这样一个故事.是说有一个叫杰克的爱尔兰人,因为他对钱特别的吝啬,就不允许他进入天堂,而被打入地狱.但是在那里他老是捉弄魔鬼撒旦,所以被踢出地狱,罚他提着灯笼永远在人世里行走.

现在你在大多数书里读到的万圣节只是孩子们开心的夜晚.
