Almost everyone knows that water covers three-fourths of the earths surface. Most of it， however， is in the oceans and is too salty to drink. Also， some of it is frozen and cannot be used. In fact， less than one percent is left for the use of people， animals and plant life. All through history men have tried to build their homes near the sources of fresh water. Now fresh water is becoming scarce， but more and more is needed because of the increasing number of people in the world. Some industries also use large amounts of fresh water in the production of things such as steel， petroleum， paper and rubber and so on. Scientists estimate that the need for fresh water will have doubled by the year 2003. If they are correct， we must find new ways of saving it or producing it. Some nations have worked on the problem and are already sharing their information with others. They are trying to keep their rivers from becoming polluted. Deep wells are also being dug， and rain water is being collected in huge artificial lakes. In one way or another， they hope to provide enough water to satisfy the needs of their people.

参考范文

With the worldwide increase of population， more and more water is needed. Meanwhile，the water sources are getting polluted by human beings in one way or another. Some nations are taking measures to solve this problem. They even communicate with each other hoping to find better ways to save and produce water to meet the needs of their people.

随着世界范围内的人口增长,越来越需要更多的水。与此同时,水源被污染,人类以一种方式或另一种方式。一些国家正在采取措施来解决这个问题。他们甚至相互沟通希望能找到更好的方法来保存并生成水来满足人民的需要。

On a personal level， to solve the problem with fresh water， both the government and inpiduals should make every effort. For example， for the government， it is urgent to make detailed laws that require businesses and inpiduals to stop polluting the environment and to save water while it is not necessarily used. Besides， education should be offered to all the citizens to raise their awareness of the importance of protecting environment and saving water. As inpiduals， we need to take action to play our own part in our everyday life.

在个人层面上,用淡水来解决这个问题,政府和个人都应该尽一切努力。例如,对于政府来说,迫在眉睫的是做出详细的法律,要求企业和个人停止污染环境,节约用水,而不一定是使用它。除此之外,教育应该提供给所有的公民提高他们的意识保护环境和节约用水的重要性。作为个人,我们需要采取行动来扮演自己的角色在我们的日常生活。

What is optimism? Optimism is when you meet with difficulties, you will have the courage to face it. What is pessimistic? Pessimism is when you meet problems, you cant challenge head-on, will only like little puss-head, tightly in there, says you are a very timid person.

If you live with optimism, you will have a lot of friends, also can have good luck comes upon you. As long as with an optimistic attitude to face life, your life will step by step to rise again, the future will certainly be like big stars send out light. As I am optimistic person, so there are a lot of good friends to accompany me around.

Be careful! Some students always with pessimistic mood in the face of all things, as long as they unwilling or in a bad mood, drop by drop tears, really upset people. Facing the challenges of life, if you are a optimistic person, what would you do? If you are a pessimist, how would you solve? Because I am a optimistic person, I would say, "ok! You can do better next time." But if I am a pessimistic person, may be a is a sign of weakness.

I think optimism and pessimism is a picture of life on paper, and we can help you with all the colors of the colorful life in different patterns. As long as have an optimistic attitude, can let me have a happy mood, brave to face all kinds of difficulties.

什么是乐观呢?乐观就是当你遇到困难，你会勇于面对。那什么是悲观呢?悲观是当你遇到问题，你不会迎头挑战，只会像缩头乌龟一样，紧紧的缩在那里，表示你是一个很胆小的人。

如果你以乐观的态度过生活，你会有很多朋友，也会有好运降临在你身上。只要以乐观的态度面对生活，你的人生就会一步又一步的往上升，未来肯定会像大明星一样散发光芒。像我就是乐观的人，所以身边有许多好朋友陪伴我。

小心了!有些同学总以悲观的心情面对所有事物，他们只要不甘心或心情不好，都一滴一滴地流下眼泪，真是让人懊恼。面临人生的各种挑战，如果你是乐观的人，你会怎么做?如果你是悲观的人，你会怎么解决?因为我是乐观的人，我会说:“没关系!下次可以做得更好。”但如果我是悲观的人，可能会一 蹶不振。

我觉得乐观和悲观是生活上的图画纸，我们可以用五彩缤纷的色彩帮自己的人生画上不同的图案。只要拥有乐观的态度，就能让我有一份快乐的心情，勇敢去面对各种难关。

Dear Lucy,

How are you doing? I am LiHua, a 17-year-old teenager currently studying in your school. Recently, our class plan to visit the nursing home this Sunday in order to help the old there and enrich our afterschool life. As the vice monitor, I would like to invite you to come with us.

Here are some details about this activity. To begin with, we will leave the school by bus at 8:00 AM and return at 5:00 PM. Besides, there will be a lot of activities such as making Chinese dumplings and giving performances, which will be not only meaningful but also interesting.

Hopefully, you would like the plan and join us. I have the confidence that we will have a great time there. Thanks for reading my letter. I am looking forward to your reply and your decision.

Best wishes,

Yours,

LiHua

In my life I have met many people who are really worth my recalling. But perhaps the most unforgettable person I ever knew is my Chinese language teacher.

What frequently brings back memories of my school teacher is his special qualities. First of all, I was attracted by his lively wit. I remember we always long for his class with great eagerness because his lecture were humorously delivered, never failing to provoke loud laughs. Second, he gave us the greatest gift a teacher can offer-- an awakening of a passion for learning. He not only led us to an appreciation of the beauty and perfection of Chinese and literature, but also aroused our great interest in exploring something deeper in this field. Finally, I was deeply impressed by the respect he showed for us, for he treated us like friends rather than students.

Although it is nearly 10 years since I attended his last class, he is the talk of our old classmates, and I know part of him has already stayed in my heart.

导语：人们说自信是成功的一半，它能给你带来勇气去坚持你所做的事。下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

People say that self-confidence is half of the success that can bring you courage to stick to what you do. Without self-confidence, one can not do well in anything. Self-confidence is of great importance and value to a person.

Firstly, self-confidence enables us to have the ambition of being successful. Only when you have the ambition to be successful, can you be successful eventually. Secondly, once we gain self-confidence, we will possess the courage and strength to overcome the setbacks and difficulties. With self-confidence, no one and nothing can stop you to success.Thirdly, with self-confidence we may accomplish something which seems to be impossible previously. No great thing is easy for us, therefore we should hold the idea that anything is possible. We should, or have to trust in ourselves.

In short, self-confidence is the spiritual pillar of a person as well as the inherent power, which is of great importance and value to a person.

【参考译文】

人们说自信是成功的一半，它能给你带来勇气去坚持你所做的事。没有自信，一个人就不能做好任何事。自信对一个人很重要也很有价值。

首先，自信使我们拥有成功的雄心。只有当你有成功的野心的时候，你最后才能成功。其次，一旦我们获得了自信，我们就拥有了勇气和力量去克服挫折和困难。有了自信，没有人也没有什么能够阻止你成功。再次，有了自信我们可能实现一些以前看起来不可能的事。没有什么大事对我们是容易的，因此我们应该相信一切皆有可能。我们应该，或者必须相信自己。

总之，自信是一个人的精神支柱也是一个人的内在力量，它对一个人很重要也很有价值。

waste a lot of time 浪费时间

in my opinion，the most important thing in the world is time.however long one may live，his life consists of a certain number of years，and a year has only12months，a month30days and one day24hours.once you waste one hour，you can not get it back no matter how much you would pay for it.

even though you are the richest person in the world，you can not afford to waste your time，because it means that you are wasting your life.even though you are the most powerful person in the world，one hour has60minutes for you just as for everyone else who struggles at the bottom of the society.

some people think that the most important thing in the world is money.in their opinion，if you have enough money，you will have everything you want.i would like to ask them a simple question：can you buy time?

the only thing with which we can win more time is efficiency.if you work with high efficiency，you can do more in a certain period of time than other people.

My home town is in the center of Xuzhou which was a quiet and beautiful place. In the past, there were many animals. They were lovely and nice. The air was fresh and there were many birds fly in the sky.

我的家乡在徐州，是一个安静而美丽的地方中心。在过去，有许多动物。他们是可爱的，漂亮的。空气清新，有许多鸟在天空飞翔。

Over the past years, it has changed a lot. At the present, it becomes a modern town and develops a lot. Now, the people in Xuzhou are richer than before, so most of people go to work by bus or by underground. Sometimes, they also drive their private cars to work. Many people sell out their old houses and move into new flats.

过去的那些年，它已经发生了很大的变化。现在，它已经成为一个现代化城市，也得到了很大的发展。现在徐州的人都比以前富有，所以大多数人都是乘巴士或地铁去工作的。有时候，他们也开私家车去上班。很多人卖了他们的老房子，然后搬进新公寓。

In some ways, the development has brought some good things, but it has also causes much environment pollution. I think we should take action to reduce the pollution.

在某些方面，发展带来了好处，但是也带来了环境污染。我认为我们应该采取措施来减少污染。

Each and every one of us is responsible for the greenhouse gases we emit in our daily actions and choices. Therefore, combating climate change is going to take the combined efforts of everyone on the planet.

The average household carbon footprint in China is 2.41 tons of carbon dioxide annually. Thats enough to fill half an Olympic swimming pool.

Surprised? Well, heres how you can work to reduce it:

1.Get started by calculating your own carbon footprint. This will give you a starting point from which to begin monitoring your progress. You enter details such as what sort of apartment you live in, your personal energy use and travel habits.

2. Each week, choose one day when you dont eat meat. Meat uses up lots of energy because it takes a long time to produce. Animals produce methane, which is another dangerous greenhouse gas, when they burp and fart.

3. Only buy the amount of food you need and if there are leftovers, get creative. For instance, make them into a soup. Ask to take food home from restaurants if theres some left, but remember to take your own container to avoid using a disposable carton.

我们每一个人负责温室气体排放在我们的日常行为和选择。因此,应对气候变化需要地球上的每个人都的共同努力。

平均每个家庭在中国的碳排放量是2.41吨二氧化碳。足够填充半个奥运游泳池了。

惊讶吗?下面是如何努力去减少这种:

1。开始计算你自己的碳足迹。这将给你一个起点的开始监视你的进步。您输入详细信息,比如什么样的公寓你住在,你的个人能源使用和旅行的习惯。

2。每周选择一天当你不吃肉。肉类消耗大量的能源,因为它需要很长时间。动物可以产生甲烷,这是另一种危险的温室气体——当他们打嗝、放屁。

3。只买适量的食物,如有剩饭,有创意。例如,让他们变成一个汤。要求把食物带回家从餐馆如果有一些离开,但切记要适用自己的饭盒,避免用一次性饭盒。

Courage is very important.Everyone needs it.We will meet many difficulties in our life and sometimes we will fail,but we can’t lose courage.If we lose courage,we can’t do anything,because we don’t dare to do anything; we are afraid of failure.This is my Chinese teacher me in the first class.I agree with him.For example,we don’t have the courage to hands up to say our answer,how can we know we are right or wrong.I will remember his word forever,” never lose courage .”

导语：做一个诚实可靠的人会让别人相信你，这会给你带来很多好处，给你机会，下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的相关优秀英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

Almost all of us heard the story "Here Comes the Wolf" when we were little kids. What we can learn from the story is that we must be honest. However, therere lots of phenomena of dishonesty nowadays.

Being dishonest does great harm not only to other people but also to yourself. Take the case of fake milk powder for example. After drinking this kind of milk, the babies had big heads while their legs and arms were still thin, which badly affected their health. To our great relief, the producers got accused and punished for all the serious consequences in the end.

Having the reputation of being honest and reliable will make other people trust you, which will provide you many benefits and give you opportunities that others may not get. Being honest, you will find it easier to cooperate with others and people will be friendly to you and support you. In a sense, if life is a longjourney, honesty will be the backpack that should be taken along all the way.

Lets pick up our "backpack" -- honesty, and start the wonderful journey!

【参考翻译】

几乎所有的人都听过这个故事：“狼来了”，当我们小的时候。我们可以从这个故事中得到的东西是我们必须诚实。然而，现在有很多不诚实的现象。

不诚实不仅对别人有害，而且对你自己也有很大的危害。以假奶粉为例。喝了这种牛奶后，婴儿的腿和胳膊仍然很瘦，他们的健康状况很差，他们的健康状况很严重。我们的杰出的救济，生产者有指责和受到惩罚的结束所有的严重后果。

做一个诚实可靠的人会让别人相信你，这会给你带来很多好处，给你机会。诚实，你会发现很容易与他人合作，人们会对你友好和支持你。从某种意义上说，如果人生是长途旅行，诚实将要采取的路上背包。

让我们拿起我们的“背包”-诚实，并开始精彩旅程!

According to the pre-qin literature records and xia, shang and Zhou Li scope, the ancient ancestors of the han nationality can be generally up long mountain, mount tai in the east and west of Huang Hezhong, downstream for activity area; Are mainly distributed in the area of yangshao culture and longshan culture of these two types of neolithic culture, as the pioneers of the han Chinese ancient cultural relics. The two civilization as the representative of the circle of Chinese civilization.

Later, they defeated here in integration involved problems.the zhuolu war nine li group leader human-god, expand the coalition forces to todays shandong province. And then to yan tribes and huangdi tribe as the main body, and formed a larger part of shandong province here tribe of huaxia tribal alliance, huaxia basic fixed source. Before the 2100-2100 BC in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River descendants of the yellow emperor group has established the xia dynasty, shang dynasty and zhou dynasty.

In 221, before the qin dynasty unified China, huaxia clan from division to unity again.

汉族又名华夏族，是中国的主体民族，为上古时期黄帝部落和炎帝部落的后裔，即炎黄子孙。汉族还是一个在历史上从未中断过的、悠久的民族，也是世界上人口最多的民族。

据先秦文献的记载与夏、商、周立都范围，汉族的远古先民大体以西起陇山、东至泰山的黄河中、下游为活动地区;主要分布在这一地区的仰韶文化和龙山文化这两个类型的新石器文化，为汉族远古先民的文化遗存。这两个文明为华夏文明圈的代表。

汉族的祖先黄帝和炎帝在中原为争夺部落联盟首领而爆发了阪泉之战，炎帝部落战败，并入黄帝部落，炎黄联盟初具雏形。后来他们在涿鹿之战中打败了东夷集团的九黎族首领蚩尤，把联盟势力扩大至今日的山东境内。后又以炎帝部落和黄帝部落为主体，与山东境内的部分东夷部落组成了更庞大的华夏部落联盟，华夏族源基本固定。公元前2100～前770年黄河中下游黄帝集团的后裔先后建立了夏朝、商朝、周朝。

前221年，秦统一中国，华夏族又从分裂走向统一。汉族先秦时期自称华夏，从汉朝开始又逐渐出现“汉”的自称。因此，华夏族有了另一个名字：汉。但原先的称谓“华夏”并没有消失，而是与“汉”这个称谓一起使用至今。

根据复旦大学的基因研究对照历史迁移记录，汉民族的扩张主因是历史上的由北往南的人口移动。在晋朝以前汉族主要分布于中国北方，随后因永嘉之乱等因素大举向南迁徙，南迁汉族则和与汉族基因及语言相异的中国南方原住民混居。这历史上由北往南的大规模移动也改变了南北人口分布密度。
