全文共 522 字
+ 加入清单An English proverb says that time is money. I consider it (this) wrong. Why? Because we all know that we can earn money be work but can not in any way get back time (in anyway)。 For this reason, we may (can) say that time is more valuable than money.
Many people do not know the value of time. It (this) is indeed a great pity. We must bear (keep) in mind that wasting time is equal to wasting your life.
英国有句谚语说,时间就是金钱。我认为这是不对的。为什么?因为我们大家都知道我们能够用工作赚钱,但无论如何却无法把时间争取回来。基于此种理由,我们可以说时间比钱钱更宝贵。

篇1:英语:打牢基础,储备初中词汇
全文共 428 字
+ 加入清单对于英语科目的准备,学生要根据自己的情况,做不同的准备。”对于英语基础比较薄弱的学生来说,这个暑假与其进行先修,不如利用这点时间把小学的英语知识再巩固、复习一遍。很多新升入初一的学生,在用词方面有很多不规范的现象,比如单复数,人称、时态的变化,短语的固定搭配等,总是出现错误。这些问题都与基础掌握不牢有关系,有些学生觉得这都是小毛病,不注意,等到了写作文的时候,这些都是扣分的地方,他们可能因为这些问题最后作文只能得几分。
要克服这些问题,学生可以在这个暑假把小学的课本再从头学一遍,要做到学过的单词都会默写,固定搭配的用法掌握准确,对名词的词性掌握清楚。在这个过程中,家长可以督促孩子,每天出几道题考考他(她),家长在检查时一定要保证孩子写的单词完全正确,不能说差不多就行了。”
对于英语基础比较好的学生,这个暑假可以在词汇准备方面多下点功夫,达到熟练掌握的程度,“初中知识难度系数增加,而且词汇量也加大,提前掌握好初中的词汇,对于今后的学习会有很大帮助。”

Hungry, looking forward to dinner; thirsty, looking forward to drinking water; scared, looking forward to Mom coming; frightened, looking forward to Dads side. These, call it, or just show it with tears and cry, will be able to get satisfactory results. Childhood is so simple, and it is so real. A little bigger, become a teenager, looking forward to be praised by the teacher, looking forward to the applause of the students, looking forward to full marks. When I was praised, like psychological flow with honey; whenever there is out, it went to the jubilant mom and dad to show off a beam with joy. At that time, how simple and innocent.
Now, the childhood in my mind has become an eternal memory, the dream of the flower season is also like a distant landscape, childhood wind like, feel, but can not see, can not touch, there are countless ways of life before, I have to walk with heavy steps wandering. Just like the taste of sorrow now". So, what about the future? Is it to open up life or to enjoy life? Yue Feis sake, Gou hardships, let me dance, father chose the former; comfortable air conditioning, cola fun, crispy potato chips, the excitement of the game so I choose the latter. Both steady stand in the balance at both ends, not the severity of the conflict scale blocking my schedule. Secondary education in less than a year will end after nine years of baptism we have strong body, sucking countless knowledge in the motherland to defeat in the mighty wave crashing on a sandy shore,? No, can not, the process of growth is painful, "enjoy life" although intoxicating, but if our youth long drunk, do not laugh for people?
Therefore, in the face of growth, we must bravely overcome the idea of ease in mind, and open up a perfect life course.

篇9:初中英语说明文写作要点
全文共 1976 字
+ 加入清单说明文是阐述事物的特征、本质、性能、结构、用途或科学原理的一种文体。其说明的对象可以是具体的,如:自然环境,仪表设备等;也可以是抽象的,如概念定律等。以下是小编整理的初中英语说明文写作要点,欢迎阅读!
说明文的写作相对于论说文来说,有一定的套路可循,因此不是十分复杂。说明科技方面的内容常用定义法、比较对比法、分类法、因果法等;说明自然环境方面的内容常用时间次序法、分类法等。当然,随着对象的不同,具体应该采用的方法也会有所不同。
说明文的写作应该注意的事项有下面几点:
1.语言简明扼要,通俗易懂,避免夸张华丽的辞藻,要把真实的一面展现在读者面前。
2.说明时一定要把握一个中心主题。说明文中细枝末节较多,但不能喧宾夺主。
3.说明的次序非常重要。合理的次序会使文章条理清楚,脉络明晰。因此,练习时可以尝试不同的次序进行写作,找出最合理的一种。
4.由于说明文写实性较强,有时难免会让人感到没有生气。因此,可以适当使用一些比喻、拟人等修辞手段,来增加文章的色彩。
下面是一篇说明一所医院布局的文章。文章虽短,但需要说明的内容却达11处之多。平均一句话就要描写一处,如果组织得不好,便会给人凌乱的感觉。
为了避免这一点,文章把整个布局图分三部分来写:
贯彻医院的是main road,第一部分以大门为参照物,介绍了靠大门且通过main road东西相对的急诊楼和门诊楼。
第二部分以湖为参照物,中心线还是main road,介绍其他分诊楼、实验室、放射室等。
第三部分写main road尽头的建筑物。
这样,繁多的细节显得井井有条。因此,选择好主线及参照物是决定文章成功的关键。

+ 加入清单Most people miss their grade school days and think they are the happiest time of their life, but whenever I recall them I cannot help feeling a little sad. In my young days I disliked any dismal atmosphere and could not bear the feeling of loneliness, yet the fact was that I often lived in a dismal home and frequently had the bitter taste of lonesomeness. I was not cheerful even in the company of my classmates at the grade school I attended. When I was alone at home the dismal atmosphere often filled me with fear even though thought here went to work in the morning but always came later than I did. For a young person like me t was too bad. Not until I was about sixteen years old had I outgrown t feeling of fear. Then there was that nagging feeling of loneliness either at home of at school. My father changed his job several times and with each change of his job we had to move and I had to attend a different grade school. Before I finished my elementary education I had attended three grade schools and thus it was difficult for me to cultivate enduring friendships. The feeling of being friendless was a constant source of pain to me. Those unhappy grade school days have of course long been over. I still have an abhorrence for any dismal atmosphere and lonesomeness, but hardened by experience I now find them less disturbing than they were.
