关于节日的英语作文初三80词【合集20篇】

Dear editor,

亲爱的编辑：

I have read many articles on the school magazine. I find that almost all the essays on the school magazine are about the daily trifles in the campus. It is good for us to know the whole things in the campus. But I think if there are some articls about current affairs andlearning methods must be better. Current affairs can open students’ eyes to know more about the world. Sharing learning methods can help some students find the best way for themselves to study.I hope you will find these proposals useful and put into effect as soon as possible.

Yours Sincerely,

Li Lei

我看过校刊上的很多文章。我发现几乎校刊上所有的文章都是关于校园里的一些日常琐事。这对于我们了解整个校园的情况是很好的。但我想如果有一些关于时事和学习方法的文章一定会更好。时事可以开阔学生们的视野，了解世界。共享学习方法可以帮助一些学生找到最适合自己的学习方法。我希望你会觉得这些建议是有用的，并尽落实。

今天，是20_年的第一天，也是元旦的第一天，我们全家人都非常的开心，打算今天下午一起去物美或者别的超市买东西。

时间过得飞快，一眨眼，就到了下午了。我和爸爸妈妈一起做了车去了物美。"嘟嘟嘟，嘟嘟嘟。"下车了。我们走着矫健的步伐，下了车，来到了物美百货的门口。

进去以后，里面还是好多的东西，有的没有变，有的加了一点东西。

我看见那里有中间的，就拉着爸爸妈妈看。爸爸妈妈说：“买够248元钱，才能去那里面。”那我们就开始疯狂的购物吧，248元，我们的目标。我说着，拉着爸爸妈妈一起去了。开始购物，我们一家三口喊着。看着这个好不好，那个好不好。这个我不要，那个我要。买个东西真麻烦。我们一家三口在那里慢慢的逛着。不一会儿，我就感觉好像钱够了。可是爸爸妈妈却说，不够不够，我们俩个人都算着呢，这才90块钱呢，再买在买。说着说着，又拿了好多东西。有的是吃的，有的是喝的，有的是用的，什么东西都有。终于，爸爸妈妈说：“应该够了吧。”我说：“不是够了，是超了。”我们赶紧一个一个东西都拿出来算一算。我说的没错吧，我说。就是够了嘛，还超了呢!爸爸妈妈赶紧去结账。然后拿着那张票。那些的人看见爸爸妈妈拿着这张票就让我抽。结果，我抽了一个十元的，我一看，其他人差不多都抽的是十元的，最少抽的是3元的。我还是算幸运的吧。我小小的心呼喊着。脸上没有什么表情，但是心里却有说不出来的话。这让我激动不已。

我爸爸说：“还有8分钟，就可以反馈百分之20。我们一家人又在那里等呀等，等呀等。终于，漫长的8分钟过去了。我还以为8分钟多么快呢，结果，慢死个人。

等他们反馈过来的再加上那十块钱，就等于少了56块钱吧。要是合理的话，那就是等于花了90块钱了吧，不错不错。新年过的挺好，心情过的也挺舒畅的。_年的第一天，当然得过的舒畅有开心一点了，要是不这样，多么遗憾。

这个元旦过得真快乐，你们过得快乐吗!希望我听到你们一起喊——快乐，反正我快乐!

Should Text Books Be Recycled?

When the school begins, students need to start their new semester, the first thing they do is to buy the text books, most students will buy the new books, while it has become popular that students choose to buy the second-hand text books.

Students can buy the second-hand book at a very low price, students use the book only for a semester, it will become useless after they reading it, so there is no need for them to spend so much money on the contemporary book.

课本该循环使用吗?

当开学的时候，学生需要开始他们的新学期，他们做的第一件事情就是买课本，大部分学生会买新的课本，然而一些学生选择买二手书，这变得越来越流行。课本循 环使用，这是好的，这能节省资源和减少废物，给后代留下更多的资源。而且，这也省下学生很多钱。学生可以低价买下二手书，他们的书本只用一个学期，看完后 就会变得无用了，所以对他们来说没必要花那么多的钱在暂时性的书本。

in the men，s 110m hurdles event in Athens. Then, he set a world record in the

same event in Lausanne.Besides training and taking part in competitions, Liu

Today, more and more young people are crazy about western festivals. When western festivals come, they usually go to restaurants or shopping malls to have fun.

如今，越来越多的年轻人都对西方的节日着迷。当西方节日到来的时候，他们常常去餐厅或是商场娱乐。

Why do the young enjoy western festivals so much? Since they worship everything new, and they can’t resist the temptation. In their opinions, western festivals symbolize the fashion, while our Chinese traditional festivals are out of date. No wonder we always feel so boring during our traditional holidays. If we still turn a blind eye to our traditional festivals, our culture and civilization will disappear someday. Accordingly, it is high time for us to pay close attention to our Chinese festivals.

为什么年轻人这么喜爱西方节日呢?大抵是因为他们喜爱新鲜事物，抗拒不了诱惑。在他们看来，西方节日代表着时尚，而中国传统节日则太土了。这也难怪我们也觉得我们的传统节日太过无聊了。如果我们对传统节日漠然置之，那么某天我们的文化文明终会消失。因此，我们该多多关注我们中国自己的节日了。

As a Chinese, we have the obligation to protect our culture and custom. So I think we should celebrate our Chinese festivals by doing some traditional activities. As for western festivals, we needn’t to be too excited about them. We can just send our best wishes to our best friends during those festivals.

作为一名中国人，我们有责任保护自己的文化习俗。所以我认为应当在庆祝中国传统节日时候举办一些传统活动。而对于西方节日，我们不需要太过激动。在这些节日里我们应该只需简单的送上祝福就好。

(传统习俗)to attempts to (试图)rescue (搭救) the patriotic poet (爱国诗人)Chu Yuan. Chu Yuan

drowned (溺死) on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month in 277 B.C. Chinese

citizens now throw bamboo leaves (竹叶) filled with cooked rice into the

water.

Therefore the fish could eat the rice rather than the hero poet. This later

on turned into the custom of eating tzungtzu and rice dumplings(棕子).

The celebrations is a time for protection (防护) from evil (邪恶) and disease

(疾病) for the rest of the year. It is done so by different practices such as

hanging healthy herbs on the front door, drinking nutritious concoctions (营养品),

and displaying (展示) portraits (画像) of evils nemesis(邪恶报应), Chung Kuei. If one

manages to (成功做...) stand (直立)an egg on its end at exactly 12:00 noon, the

modern machines.

All the work was done by hand. Thousands of men died and were buried under

the wall they built. The Great Wall was made not only of stone and earth, but of

the flesh and blood of millions of men.

农历五月初五，是中国民间的传统节日——端午节，它是中华民族古老的传统节日之一。端午也称端五，端阳。此外，端午节还有许多别称，如：午日节、重五节，五月节、浴兰节、女儿节，天中节、地腊、诗人节、龙日等等。虽然名称不同，但总体上说，各地人民过节的习俗还是同多于异的。

过端午节，是中国人二千多年来的传统习惯，由于地域广大，民族众多，加上许多故事传说，于是不仅产生了众多相异的节名，而且各地也有着不尽相同的习俗。其内容主要有：女儿回娘家，挂钟馗像，迎鬼船、躲午，帖午叶符，悬挂菖蒲、艾草，游百病，佩香囊，备牲醴,赛龙舟，比武，击球，荡秋千，给小孩涂雄黄，饮用雄黄酒、菖蒲酒，吃五毒饼、咸蛋、粽子和时令鲜果等，除了有迷信色彩的活动渐已消失外，其余至今流传中国各地及邻近诸国。有些活动，如赛龙舟等，已得到新的发展，突破了时间、地域界线，成为了国际性的体育赛事。

关于端午节的由来，说法甚多，诸如：纪念屈原说;纪念伍子胥说 ;纪念曹娥说;起于三代夏至节说;恶月恶日驱避说，吴月民族图腾祭说等等。以上各说，各本其源。据学者闻一多先生的《端午考》和《端午的历史教育》列举的百余条古籍记载及专家考古考证，端午的起源，是中国古代南方吴越民族举行图腾祭的节日，比屈原更早。但千百年来，屈原的爱国精神和感人诗辞，已广泛深入人心，故人们“惜而哀之，世论其辞，以相传焉”，因此，纪念屈原之说，影响最广最深，占据主流地位。在民俗文化领域，中国民众把端午节的龙舟竞渡和吃粽子等，都与纪念屈原联系在一起。

时至今日，端午节仍是中国人民中一个十分盛行的隆重节日

Christmas is one of the most important celebrations of the year for the western countries. it falls on the twenty- fifth of december and has the same importance as chinese new year to people with english backgrounds. the celebration is for the birth of jesus christ, who is the son of god in christianity. now days christmas is no longer only celebrated by the christians, but by most people from all over the world.

On the twenty- fourth of december everyone gets excited for it’s the day before christmas which is called christmas eve. the children are usually sent to bed early and are warned that “santa claus will only come and give you a present if you be good.” the younger kids actually believe that santa will come down the chimney on the sleigh that’s pulled by his reindeers. food like short bread and beer are prepared for santa when he comes, however most times parents just eat them. some children put socks and sacks up for the holding of the presents (that their parents put in).

Rise and shine on christmas morning! the children are always the first ones to wake up, some even do at four. present wrappers everywhere! they look into their presents with a big smile on their face and oh dear….i hope no one’s disappointed. i feel sorry for anyone that got pink underwear. children play while dinner is prepared by the adults. the christmas dinner are usually eaten together by relatives. the tradition of christmas pudding and roosters are usually eaten with deserts afterwards. the rest of the day is usually games and fun before the good days all come to an end.

I wish everyone a merry christmas and a happy new year!

如果一百份试卷里都是清一色的“I think”简单句,那阅卷人读起来将会多么的乏味,乏味至极的阅卷人又如何能给得出高分?所以,我们在写句子的时候,要尽可能的变换句式和结构,让文章富于变化,错落有致。具体地说:中考作文中,我们可以尝试使用更多的复合句,主要是宾语从句、状语从句以及尝试变化语态。例如,2008年中考北京卷作文题,以汶川地震为背景描写一个叫做林浩的小英雄的故事以及自身感受。其中有一句细节描写叫做“他救出了自己的同学并步行七小时到达安全地点。”例文给出的句子是“he saved two of his classmates. Then he walked for seven hoursto safety。” 这句话我们可以改写成为一个从句:saving two of his classmates, Lin Haowalked for seven hours to safety。

如果再加上语态的变换,还可以改写成:Being saved from the earthquake, two of LinHao’s classmates walked for seven hours to safety with Lin Hao。这样的变化在作文中能够主动使用的话,一定会增加阅卷人的青睐,从而给你的文章增加获胜的筹码。
