全文共 855 字
+ 加入清单This summer vacation, I joined a social practice to be a part-time tourguide. There I found something that impressed me a lot.
People who love traveling are always finding places to take a vacation, which caused a lot of troubles.For example, I found that some people were used to dropping out the trash everywhere. They just regarded the sightseeings as their houses, which cost a lot to clean it up. Besides, some one should write down their names on the trees and walls. People who wanted to leave their names whereever they went are always to punish in future.
Nevertheless, I also found some good examples, such as teaching tourists not to destroy the places of historic interests, helping clean up the environment,etc..I think we all need to teach more people not to hurt our precious nature. What we really need to do is protect them form destroying.

篇3:2024高中英语作文大全:父亲
全文共 1687 字
+ 加入清单Once, when I was a teenager, my father and I were standing in line to buy tickets for the circus. Finally, there was only one family between us and the ticket counter.
This family made a big impression on me. There were eight children, all probably under the age of 12. You could tell they didnt have a lot of money.
Their clothes were not expensive, but they were clean. The children were well-behaved, all of them standing in line, two-by-two behind their parents, holding hands. They were excitedly jabbering about the clowns, elephants, and other acts they would see that night.
One could sense they had never been to the circus before. It promised to be a highlight of their young lives. The father and mother were at the head of the pack, standing proud as could be.
The mother was holding her husbands hand, looking up at him as if to say, "Youre my knight in shining armor."
He was smiling and basking in pride, looking back at her as if to reply, "You got that right."
The ticket lady asked the father how many tickets he wanted. He proudly responded, "Please let me buy eight childrens tickets and two adult tickets so I can take my family to the circus."
The ticket lady quoted the price. The mans wife let go of his hand, her head dropped, and his lip began to quiver. The father leaned a little closer and asked, "How much did you say?"
The ticket lady again quoted the price. The man didnt have enough money.
How was he supposed to turn and tell his eight kids that he didn‘t have enough money to take them to the circus? Seeing what was going on, my dad put his hand in his pocket, pulled out a $20 bill and dropped it on the ground. (We were not wealthy in any sense of the word!)
篇4:以地铁上是否允许吃东西为话题的高中英语作文
全文共 1165 字
+ 加入清单Currently, some cities are considering a food ban on subways, which has sparked heated discussion. Some people say food should be banned because of the trash and rats they attract. And, garbage from discarded food can cause track fires. Beyond sanitary and mechanical concerns, food can also cause fights, as was discovered last week by one passenger who criticized a woman eating steamed stuffed bun on the subway.
However, some others are opposed to the idea. They argue that people like eating in the train in the morning because they dont have enough time to eat at their houses or restaurants. Sometimes that may be the only time or meal a transit rider may be able to eat especially when traveling long distances. Besides, there are people, for example diabetics, who do require food at various times to maintain blood-sugar levels.
Personally, Im against the ban because of the huge inconvenience it would cause to commuters, and the expense involved in enforcing it. Still, I believe we should have a little common courtesy. I think we all have responsibility to try to treat our subway system and fellow riders with respect, and that extends to food as well.
篇5:有关艺术英语作文高中
全文共 1031 字
+ 加入清单Since I was very small, my parents sent me to learn painting. They thought
I could understand art and mastered one skill. This experience brings me the
sense of art. I have my own understanding of it.
On the one hand, art is an important way to express peoples opinion. When
we see the pictures, the difference between classical and ordinary paintings
lies in the thoughts. The famous artists implant their ideas in the pictures,
which are admitted by the public, so the value of arts can be seen. Some famous
artists expressed their unique opinion and gives arts great meaning.
On the other hand, art is not only from works, but also from life. For
example, my mother cooks the delicious food. Everybody speaks highly of her. So
her food brings people great happiness, which makes the food an art for me.
Whats more, my friends is good at communicating. The way she talks can convince
other easily, so I call the way she communicates as an art.
In all, for me, art is around. It brings people a way to see the world or
makes our life wonderful.

篇7:家乡的夜高中优秀作文
全文共 694 字
+ 加入清单我是喜欢夜晚的,它可以给我无限的遐想,可以给我无限的思维空间,可以给我!
家乡的夜晚是那么的宁静,宁静地安逸,宁静地舒爽,宁静地让人浮想联翩。喜欢故乡的夜晚,因为在那个小小的村庄,我可以一个人静静地躺在楼顶,享受夏的温存,欣赏月的洁白,看流星的陨逝;可以一个人走在乡村小道上,聆听虫鸣鸟叫,没有汽车的轰鸣,没有人际吵杂,就那样享受大自然给予的和谐。一边轻轻地呼吸新鲜的,从大自然发出的,没有污染的空气,一边享受如春暖花开般的安逸。那样的生活是美好的,是让我享用不尽的。
当火车驶出故乡的海岸线,驶出我生活了19年,驶出我不曾离开的那个海岛,就决定了我在异乡生活的开始,决定了我新的人生的起航。
当我来到这个我不曾到达的城市,这里的一切都是新鲜的,它让我产生一种去了解它的欲望。是的,这是一个很好的地方,有美丽的山,有洁净的街道,有热情的人民。但是,当我一直从中国的最南端到达这里,经历了家乡春夏秋冬的温度,我对它产生的些许好感,因为它的温度让我的身体感到舒适,让我的精神得到充沛。但是它远不如我的故乡,那个和谐健康的海岛。来到这里,我的身体有了以往未曾有过的舒适,但我的呼吸道,我的大脑,开始曾受不一样的压力,这里的空气是污浊的,是干燥的;而家乡的空气是是新鲜的,是湿润的。突然改变的生活环境让我有些不适应。
但是这里的夜晚也是那么的宁静,那么的安逸,舒爽的温度可以让我更好的遐想未来,回味过去。看着窗外阑珊的灯火,那宁静的夜空,还有夜空中那闪烁的星星,我的心思飞舞,这样的夜晚让我没有一丁点瞌睡的欲望。这样的夜晚让我不禁感觉我还在那个安逸舒适宁静的乡村,那个我怀念着的家。

我喜欢我的家乡,因为那是我小时候住的地方,家乡的居民大多都养了家禽。闲暇时,我与鸡鸭为伍。我坐在石头上,看着它们,它们也看着我,我和它们产生了深厚的友谊。
我的家乡是美丽的,家乡居民们守望相助,即使发生纠纷也会很快和好。那些在故乡的美好一切,我一辈子也不会忘记。

篇17:名著《茶花女》高中英语读后感
全文共 4581 字
+ 加入清单导语:《茶花女》故事讲述了一个青年人与巴黎上流社会一位交际花曲折凄婉的爱情故事。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!
I read the Chinese version of “Camille” a few years ago. At that time I was deeply moved by the main character Marguerite Gautier. “Camille” or “The Lady of the Camellias” by Alexandre Dumas, fils, is the story of Marguerite Gautier, a young courtesan, or kept woman, in Paris in the mid 1800s, and how she falls in love with a young man, Armand Duval, and then tries to escape from her questionable past. Unfortunately, it comes back to haunt her and she ends up returning to that life and dies painfully and alone, but with the knowledge that she was a noble woman at heart. When I first began to read the book, I did not care for Marguerite or her attitude or lifestyle, but as I got further into the narrative, I realized that her saucy attitude was a front to cover the lonely woman that she really was. She felt used, abused and unloved, until the gentle Armand Duval came into her life and showed her that he loved her as a person and not for what she could do for him. It must have taken great courage for Marguerite to leave the life she had lived for so long, knowing all along that it was probably too good to be true and would not last indefinitely. And it also showed that Marguerite really loved Armand Duval for she could even change herself for him.
However, happiness didn’t last for long. When M. Duval, Armands father, came to her, pleading for her to leave Armand to save both Armands reputation and that of his younger innocent sister, Marguerite saw a way to become pure of heart, if not in body. She felt that it was her duty, because she loved Armand so much, to do this even though it meant giving up her own happiness and hurting Armand temporarily. She reluctantly returned to her former life, knowing that some day Armand would forgive her. Sadly, she died in debt and basically alone, except for her one female friend, Julie Duprat, who helped her during her illness. She had her journal sent to Armand after her death, explaining why she had made the choices she had. I think Dumass last few lines about Marguerite being the exception, not the rule were quite true, and I also agreed with his view that while her lifestyle could not be condoned, we as a society assume that all of these type of women are cold and heartless, while this may not always be the case. A person can make the wrong choices in life when they are young, and try to redeem themselves, but sometimes past situations prevent them from changing their lives, even though they desperately wish to do so. This applies to both men and women in many different types of circumstances: involvement in crime; drug or alcohol abuse; gambling; prostitution; financial problems; poor marriage choices; etc. And this is the fact, which exists in the whole society.
As far as the other characters in the book, I think Marguerite was right in saying that no one truly cared about her, but only wanted something from her, the only exceptions being Armand and Julie Duprat. Of course, the Comte de G. and Comte de N. wanted her body and appearance. The Duke needed to “wake up and smell the coffee” and realize that she could never replace his dead daughter. If he truly cared, he could have helped her leave her lifestyle without “keeping” her himself. And lastly, Prudence was a blood-sucking leech who used Marguerite almost worse than the men. I also think she was jealous of the fact that Marguerite had so much more courage than herself and someone truly loved her.
Last morning, when tiding my bookshelf, I took this book out of the shelf, and a dried flower flew away from the book. It was pale blue, very transparent, with thin fine veins. a dried flower flew away from the book. It was pale blue, very transparent, with thin fine veins. I held it against the morning light and blew on it. The soft breeze carried it away. Camille is just like the camellia, she could never escape from the destiny of withering. But it wasn’t her fault; it’s because of the evil of Capitalism and the hideousness of that society.
Suddenly, I remembered a saying: “Women are like the flowers”. Those pretty women are like those beautiful flowers; their delicate beauty makes people feel they are the miracle of life. However, even the God envies their beauty. It seems that beautiful women always have tragic endings. As we are normal persons, even we can see the hideousness of humanity that results in their fate of withering, we can at most ask quietly in our hearts: Where have those beautiful flowers gone? Where have they gone?

For the sake of our life andsecurity, some measures must be taken to change the present situation. In thefirst place, as there are a great many cars, we should control the number ofprivate cars and vehicles and use the public transportation more often.Secondly, the government should widen the roads and build more flyovers, so asto ease the traffic pressure and reduce the traffic accidents. In addition, theundergrounds and light rails should be constructed, so that we can have morechoices when going out and do not have to worry about the traffic jams in thefuture.
为了我们的生命和安全起见,我们必须采取一些措施来改变现状。首先,因为有很多车,所以我们应该控制私家车的数量,更经常使用公共交通工具。其次,政府应该拓宽道路,建造更多的立交桥,以缓解交通压力,减少交通事故的发生。此外,应构建地铁和轻轨,这样我们将来外出时可以有更多的选择也不用不必担心交通堵塞。

+ 加入清单Henan has a humid warm-temperate climate. Dry and windy in winter and spring, the province is hot and rainy in summer and bakes in strong sunlight during the autumn months. Rainfall averages about 600-1000 millimeters increasing from north to south, as does the annual temperature which increases from about 12.8C in the north to 15.5C in the south.
Henan province is considered the cradle of Chinese civilization due to its location on the Yellow River. This rich historic heritage has endowed Henan with numerous historic treasures, from primitive dwellings to earliest wheel thrown pottery. The remains of some of the earliest human settlements have been unearthed here, including the over 7000-year-old Peiligang Culture Site, the 6000-year-old Yangshao Culture Remains and the 5000-year-old Dahe Culture Remains. All these cultural remains have profound significance in the history of Chinese civilization.
Luoyang City has been the capital of nine dynasties since the time of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty (770BC-221BC). There are many historical sites to be viewed in Luoyang as well as the opportunity to purchase replicas of the famed Tang three-glaze horses. Luoyangs Longmen Grottoes, famous for its grand treasure trove of Chinese Buddhist statues, are located 12km (7 miles) south of Luoyang. First sculpted and chiseled around 493 AD when the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty (386-534) was moved from Datong City to Luoyang, the grottoes of Luoyang house an awe-inspiring collection of sculpted Buddha and other religious subjects.
Kaifeng, one of the ancient capitals, also boasts the following buildings worthy of a visit: Iron Pagoda (Tie Ta) of the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127), Dragon Pavilion (Long Ting) - site of imperial palace of the Song and Jin dynasties - and the 1400-year-old Xiangguo Temple which is one of the most famous Buddhist temples in China. Also on view in Kaifeng are ruins of the Shang Dynasty, an important part of human cultural and historic heritage. The Shang Dynasty Ruins, also known as the Yin Ruins, are famous because of the unique style of the large palace and its grand mausoleums, in which emperors of the Shang Dynasty are buried. The bronze vessels of the Shang Dynasty, which were both finely decorated and popularly used by the citizens of the Shang Dynasty, are well-known at home and abroad.
