Recently, I have seen an impressive film—“Meet the Parents”, which is about

a woman Palm brought her boyfriend Greg to her parents’ home to spend holiday.

In the film, Greg was so dishonest to Palm’s parents that Palm’s father is

suspicious of his behavior and quality. As a result, Greg is obnoxious to all

and has to leave. As far as I am concerned, the consequence is heavily caused by

his dishonesty. If Greg could be real him all the time, he would get much

respect and appreciation and would not get much frustration. From the film, I

have learned that being honest was extremely important and necessary. In other

words, being honest is a basic principle for us to deal with others.

For one thing, we will not get others’ trust unless we are honest. If we

deceive others, we would get the same in return, and even no one would make

friends with us or even communicate with us. For another, we will get others’

respect and appreciation if telling the truth. Telling the truth and being

ourselves, we will get a healthy and peaceful surrounding to grow up better.

However, something strange happens in our society. There is a strange

phenomenon that honest people suffer but the dishonest benefit a lot. It made

some people have a suspicion that being honest is not so important.

But I still believe that these are just a few cases, since honesty is

deeply rooted in our minds and we still consider it as a basic principle in

social contacts.

Far and away the most important holiday in China is Spring Festival, also

known as the Chinese New Year.

To the Chinese people it is as important as Christmas to people in the

West.

The dates for this annual celebration are determined by the lunar calendar

rather than the Gregorian calendar, so the timing of the holiday varies from

late January to early February.

To the ordinary Chinese, the festival actually begins on the eve of the

lunar New Year‘s Day and ends on the fifth day of the first month of the lunar

calendar. But the 15th of the first month, which normally is called the Lantern

Festival, means the official end of the Spring Festival in many parts of the

country.

Spring Festival is the most importantand popular festival in China.Before

Spring Festival ,the people usually clean and decorate their houses.And they go

to the Flower Fairs to buy some flowers.

During Spring Festival ,the adults usually give lucky money to

children.People often get together and have a big meal.Some people eat dumpling

for dinner.

I love Spring Festival .

篇2:“万里长城华夏魂” 长城保护利用作文通用

俗话说“不到长城非好汉”。告别了美丽的天津,我来到了盼望已久的八达岭。

到达八达岭,首先印入我眼帘的是远处漫长而古老的城墙,高大坚固。我迫不及待地爬上城墙,只见,它由一块又一块条石和城砖砌成,上面还砌着暗灰色的方砖,可以供行六匹马的宽度。我轻轻抚摸着一块右一块青条石,无疑,我马上想到了古时候还没有起重机、卡车、吊机,靠的是无数的双手,一步一步地将青条石抬上来的,这到底凝结多少劳动人民智慧和汗水啊!这坚不可摧的城墙,曾经又挡下了多少次敌人猛烈进攻啊!

抬头远眺,每段城墙的两头,总有一个高高的烽火台。这烽火台像一个个秘密的小房子,严肃而神秘莫测。原来它们用来给我军传递一些重要的军事信息。一个不起眼的射击口,不知帮助祖先们打下了多少胜仗,保护了万千人民生命财产安全!

走近每一个嘹望口,你会看见许多惟妙惟俏的壁画,仿若双龙戏珠,一条威风凛凛的龙张牙舞爪的扑向龙珠。另一条龙使出绝杀技——猛龙摆尾,用尾巴进击另一条龙。除此之外,还有龙凤上天,竹潇引虎,飞禽猛兽……它们都被栩栩如生地刻在青条石上,真让人叹为观止啊!

从高处往下看,这前不见头,后不见尾的“巨龙”被建在许多个直入云天的山脉上,许多苍天大树都被种在这条“巨龙”下面,不远处有一条奔腾不息的河流,还有低矮处的小村子,一幅美丽的油画尽收眼底。

我爱这美丽的、凝结着千千万万劳动人民智慧和汗水的——万里长城。我为此感到高兴,我为此感到自豪,我为此而引吭高歌。

篇14:保护水资源建议书

全文共 756 字

亲爱的叔叔阿姨们:

现在,中国科技发展日新月异:发明了核武器、神七升天、成功举办了奥运会……人们都过上了幸福安康的生活。但是,人门是否想过祖国的环境正在一步一步的恶化?

就拿水资源来说,虽然地球上70.8%的面积被水覆盖,但世界水资源中有97.2%是海,剩下的70%是固体冰川,也就是说,真正可以被利用的水资源还不到1%。这真是少得可怜。尤其是我国人口众多,淡水资源并不丰富,每到秋冬季节,就有几十个省市,几千万人口受到干旱的威胁。

听大人们说,以前的湘江清澈见底,一到夏季人们就会涌进江水中,与江水快乐的嬉戏,江水也成为了人类的朋友。而现在,一些工厂不注意保护水资源,不加节制的抽取江水,再把工业废水排入江中,造成了水资源的严重污染。还有大型挖沙船不断挖取河沙,造成了水土流失。前几天,我和同学们去岳麓山球友,经过湘江大桥,我放眼望去,只见裸露的河床被晒得发白了。几窝浅浅的水嵌在河床中,似乎马上会被抽干,没有水,我们怎么活啊?我痛苦地想!

我经常能在马路边发现有人端着高压水枪对着汽车长时间冲洗,地下一片汪洋,也能看到滴水的消防栓,爆裂的水管如喷泉般涌出自来水,马路成了溪流;现在的小学生也不把水资源放在眼里,每当我走到水龙头附近,就会听见“哗啦哗啦”的响声,仿佛是水滴痛苦的呻吟。如果我们再不加以节制的话,恐怕人类的眼泪就要成为世界上的最后一滴水了。

所以,为了保护水资源,节约用水,我向大家提出以下建议:

第一,少去洗车房,可以提一桶水给自己的爱车进行擦拭。

第二,用淘米水洗菜,再用清水清洗,不仅节约了水,还有效地清除了蔬菜上的残存农药。

第三,在洗手、刷牙、洗脸不需要水时,要关闭水龙头。

第四,请自来水公司及时检修消防栓和水管。

第五,关闭污染严重的沿江企业。

为了不让眼泪成为世界上的最后一滴水,让我们一起行动起来吧!

Today, Dameisha took me to see the sea, because I have never seen the sea. I was thinking of the sea all the way. I saw on TV the sea is very beautiful, I feel that the sea should be like this: blue water, spray gently lying in the arms of the sea. On the beach there grows many palm beach, lying quietly in many shells, conch. A few crabs to climb. Should be against the background of blue sky, the sky the sun, seagulls flying, this beautiful picture of you! What an intoxicated! I feel relaxed and happy.

Can be when I saw the sea of a moment, I am disappointed, the mood suddenly changed. Because my eyes of the sea is dark, is muddy, is not angry, is not confident. Some just inferiority. I know that the sea is not so, but people are polluting into this.

Now, human beings in order to live, a large number of cutting trees, cut and not planted, how many of the previous tropical rain forest, now is flat, how many trees, now replaced by high-rise buildings. Factory emissions, air pollution, and no trees to release fresh air. And plant emissions of toxic wastewater, so that water in the small fish, shrimp have been poisoned, and the river afloat smelly fish dead bodies and garbage, all this is how terrible ah!

Lets go and embrace the nature! To protect nature! Let everything in the world be beautiful.

今天,大姨带我去大梅沙看大海,因为我从来没有见过大海。我一路上都在想大海的样子。我看见电视上的大海很漂亮,我觉得大海应该是这样的:碧蓝的海水,浪花轻轻的躺在大海的怀抱中。海滩上生长着许多的椰树,海边静静的躺着许多贝壳,海螺。几只螃蟹爬来爬去。映衬着的应该是蔚蓝的天空,天空上的一轮红日,海欧飞来飞去,这景象多美呀!多令人陶醉呀!我心情轻松愉快。

可当我才看见大海的一瞬间,我失望了,心情一下子变的沉重了。因为我眼前的大海是灰暗的,是浑浊的,是没有生气的,是没有自信的。有的只是自卑。我知道大海原来不是这样的,而是被人们污染成这样的。

现在,人类为了生活,大量砍伐树木,砍了又不栽,以前有多少热带雨林,现在是平地,以前多少树木,现在取而代之的是高楼大厦。工厂排放的废气,污染空气,又没有树木放出新鲜的空气。还有工厂排放出的有毒的废水,让水里的小鱼,小虾都被毒死了,河面上浮着发臭的鱼的尸体和垃圾,这一切又是多么的可怕呀!

Environmental problems are becoming more and more serious all over the world. For example, cars have made the air unhealthy for people to breathe and poisonous gas is given off by factories. Trees on the hills have been cut down and waste water is being poured continuously into rivers.Furthermore, wherever we go today, we can find rubbish carelessly disposed. Pollution is, in fact, threatening our existence.

The earth is our home and we have the duty to take care of it for ourselves and for our later generations. Fortunately, more and more people have realized these problems. Measures have been taken to cope with these problems by the government. Laws have been passed to stop pollution. I hope the problem will be solved in the near future and our home will become better and better.

全世界的环境问题变得越来越严重。例如汽车污染的空气影响了人们的呼吸,工厂释放污染的气体,山上的树木被砍伐,污水不断被排人河里。另外,无论我们走到哪里,到处可见随意丢弃的垃圾。事实上,污染正威胁我们的生存。

地球是我们的家园,我们有责任为我们自己和我们的后代去照顾好它。庆幸的是,愈来愈多的人们已经意识到这些问题。政府已经采取了很多措施去解决这些问题,法律已被通过以制止污染。我希望这些问题在不远的将来能得到解决,我们的家园变得越来越好。

The whole ecological balance of the earth is changing. Massive destruction of environment has brought about negative effects and even poses a great threat to mans existence.

We must face the situation that exists and take actions to solve our environmental problems.

We hope that all these measures will be effective and bring back a healthful environment.

节约水资源英语作文【1】

We can save water in many different ways, but to understand how these ways help save our environment, we must understand that all things can be linked together. For example, by planting trees, we can reduce the amount of soil that enters and pollutes our waterways. You can start saving water by:

Using buckets instead of a hose when watering the garden

Taking a shower instead of a bath, but using water saving shower heads would be even better.

Installing half-flush toilets.

Fixing leaky taps

Placing an object such as a brick in the toilet or adjust the arm on the toilet.

Planting native Australian plants

Resuing greywater (thats what we call the water from the laundry, etc.

These are only some of the endless ways that we can help our environment.

节约水资源英语作文【2】

As we know, water is very important to man, we can’t live without water. The amount of water which is suitable to drink is less and less. But some people don’t care about it. They waste a lot of water in their daily life. Even worse, they pour dirty water into rivers. They throw rubbish into rivers, too. Many rivers and lakes are seriously polluted. Something must be done to stop the pollution. And I think it’s a great shame to waste while millions are in great need of water. I think what we can do is that we have to save every drop of water as possible as we can. For example, we must turn off the tap immediately after we use it. We can use a basin to wash our hands and faces. It’s also a good idea to encourage my friends and family members to join me! Only in this way can we live happily. If we don’t save water, the last drop of water will be a tear-drop of us. I believe if everyone makes a little effort, we can make a big difference.

篇20:如何保护动物英语作文

全文共 5272 字

The dog is one of the most popular pets in the world. It ordinarily remains loyal to a considerate master, and because of this the dog has been called mans best friend. Class distinctions between people have no part in a dogs life. It can be a faithful companion to either rich or poor.

Dogs have been domesticated for most of human history and have thus endeared themselves to many over the years. Stories have been told about brave dogs that served admirably in war or that risked their lives to save persons in danger. When Pompeii--the Roman community destroyed by Mount Vesuvius in AD 79--was finally excavated, searchers found evidence of a dog lying across a child, apparently trying to protect the youngster. Perhaps few of the millions of dogs in the world may be so heroic, but they are still a source of genuine delight to their owners.

A dog fits easily into family life. It thrives on praise and affection. When a master tells a dog that it is good, the animal happily wags its tail. But when a master scolds a dog, it skulks away with a sheepish look and with its tail tucked between its legs.

People in the city as well as those in other areas can enjoy a dog. Medium-size or small dogs are best suited for the confines of the city. Large dogs need considerable exercise over a large area.

Dogs are not always well thought of, however. In recent years dogs in the city have been in the center of controversy. Some people have criticized dog owners for allowing their pets to soil sidewalks and lawns, although in some cities laws oblige owners to walk their dogs along street curbs. In turn, dog owners have argued that the animals serve as protection against vandals and burglars and thus protect their detractors as well as their owners.

When a person decides to own a dog, he should be prepared to care for it properly. For a dog to stay healthy it must be correctly fed and adequately groomed, and its medical needs must be met. For a dog to be well-mannered it must be properly trained. It should never be ill-treated or mishandled. Otherwise, it will bite in its own defense.

The wild ancestors of all dogs were hunters. Wolves and other wild relatives of the dog still hunt in packs for their food. Dogs have retained the urge to be with the pack. This is why they do not like to be left alone for long. Some breeds of dogs still retain the hunting instinct.

Dogs exist in a wide range of sizes, colors, and temperaments. Some, such as the Doberman pinscher and the German shepherd, serve as alert and aggressive watchdogs. Others, such as the beagle and the cocker spaniel, are playful family pets, even though they were bred for hunting. Still others, such as the collie and the Welsh corgi, can herd farm or range animals. Each of the dogs just mentioned is a purebred. A mongrel dog, however--one with many breeds in its background--can just as easily fit into family life.

Dogs have been with humans since prehistoric times. Over the years they have performed various services. They have pulled sleds over snowy tracts. They have delivered messages, herded sheep and cattle, and even rescued persons trapped in the snow. Dogs have served as a source of food, too. The ancient Romans are said to have prized certain kinds of dog stew. The Aztecs of ancient Mexico raised tiny dogs, thought to be the forebears of the chihuahua, to feed the large carnivores in the private zoos of the Aztec rulers. In the past dogs have even been worshiped as gods. Recently, they have been used in drug research, medical experimentation, and space science. Soviet scientists launched dogs into space to test the ability of mammals to survive the rigors of space travel before people were sent up.

Dogs are trained as guard dogs in peacetime by the United States Army and other military services. Because of their keen sense of smell, dogs are used by police at times to track down escaped prisoners. Law enforcement agencies also rely on the dogs acute sense of smell to uncover illegal drugs.
