Summer vacation has arrived, and it is a happy holiday, but do you have a

plan for your summer vacation? Although the summer vacation can relax, but you

cant put myself too loose, but to continue to work hard for next semester!.

What can we do for ourselves during the summer vacation? There are lots and

lots. Much like stars countless, for example: in the summer school program

enrollment, swimming lessons, and family to go out to play with my classmates,

riding a bicycle to go for a ride...... Etc..

In the summer school program can add new knowledge, can also review the way

before the content of homework; swimming can enhance their ability of self-help,

also can cultivate interest, so he will not feel bored; and the family out can

choose to visit the places of historic interest and scenic beauty but also to

the scenic area, to enjoy the wonders of nature, which not only can to broaden

their horizons, also can make their own eye-opening; with the students about

riding together together, talk together, let oneself not sitting at home playing

computer, addicted to electronic games, can also make their own troubles to the

winds!

If I had words, I would have chosen to go all the way, because I thought it

was very meaningful and liked, and it would not be annoying.

I believe I’ll have a wonderful trip.

My holiday

Jack

I have a very cheerful holiday in “The National Day”. My parent and I went to Shanghai about nine days ago. We got there by plane, I think that shanghai must be a very big city, and there are a lot of tall buildings. First we went into the hotel named”chuang ye”. And we saw the tall big building “Shanghai TV Tower”, at nine in the evening, we got back to the hotel. The second day, we visited Zhouzhuang. It’s very beautiful and the air was good, I bought my favorite toy : weapons. I like them very much. Shanghai’s food tasted good. Today we are very happy and tired, so we slept early in the night. The third day however, we didn’t go anywhere, we stayed in the hotel until late in the afternoon. In the evening, we came back to Tianjin by plane to. This travel was fantastic!

With the general standard of living improvingand the working week becoming shorter，more andmore people are able to make a holiday trip toplaces of interest. While many like to joinpackage tours fro convenience，I prefer to traveln my own.

I like travelling on may own not only because it costs much less but because it gives a great degree of independence and freedom. Travelling on my own，I’m my own boss;and can decide when to start on my way，where to linger a little longer and which spot can be skipped over to save energy or time for another spot. I can always adjust my plan. On the contrary，in a package tour you’re deprived of as much freedom as in a military base. At the sound of the whistle，you have to jump up from a sound sleep and，with heavy-lidded eyes，hurry to the gathering place where you are collected and counted to board a coach. At the sight of the little flag waving，you must immediately take yourself away from the scenes you are marveling at and follow the guide whose sole interest is to cover all spots according to him strict schedule，regardless of the weather or your health condition.

True，you may encounter inconveniences if you travel individually，for instance，getting accommodations for the night and finding a place for meals. But nothing can be compared with the freedom which is vital to a person who takes a holiday trip mainly to escape from constraints of his routine life.

All of us experience failure and are afraid of it. However, every coin has two sides. __________

参考范文

All of us experience failure and are afraid of it. However, every coin has two sides. Failure also has its advantages. It provides us with an opportunity to see our strengths and weaknesses clearly, enabling us to find what is the most suitable for us. On the other hand, failure can be a good teacher. It tells us where we need improvements, where we should invest more time and energy, and what strategy to take.

Failure is something unavoidable. Properly handled, though, it can teach us a lot. Firstly, we should face it bravely instead of complaining about the unfairness of life. Secondly, we should analyze the reasons高三英语作文 作为一名高中生，我们该如何看待失败timely to avoid making similar mistakes. Last but not least, we are supposed to make appropriate changes and more efforts.

Although it is summer vacation homework, but also do not have a flavor. I take out in writing homework first, open the book, a pen as in the copybook written up a row, particularly serious, because I know if there is no written, there will be a punishment comes. Time soon, after I have finished writing the a, pick it up in the sunlight, she look a look, really good.

Sometimes learn to learn to feel it is quite interesting.

Alas, I this summer vacation in addition to practice calligraphy, maths and English...... of all the other things didnt do, I live in learning all day.

在这个暑假里，我既没有参加夏令营，也没有出去旅行，我只呆在家里写暑假作业。

虽然是写暑假作业，但也别有一番风味。我先拿出练字的作业，翻开书本，一笔一划的照着字帖临写起来，特别认真，因为我知道如果没有写好，会有惩罚降临的。时间很快，转眼我已经写完一张了，拿起来在阳光的照射下，自己瞧一瞧，真是不错呀。紧接着我要写第二张了，这一张看起来内容很少，不过写起来就不一定好写。我把这些内容写完之后，一看还有很多格子，简直崩溃了，没办法只能再重新写一遍。

练字其实是一种很好的休闲方式，它既可以让一个毛躁的人安静，也可以让一个人的字更加漂亮，我就觉得练字挺好。有时是觉得练字很讨厌，很烦，为什么别人不厌倦呢，因为他们用心练字了。暑假里，我在家练字，别人在外玩，我很羡慕，可是我认为练字也是一种愉快的“游戏”，我喜欢练字!

我的英语不是很好，因此爸爸妈妈在暑假期间给我报了一个补习班，想到他们那么努力的为我，我也要更加学好英语才可以。

数学可是我的老大难，令我厌倦不已，但是在暑假里妈妈每天忙忙碌碌，又要上班又要教我学数学，

有时自己学着学着感觉还挺有意思的。

唉，我这个暑假除了练字、学数学和学英语······其他的事情都没做，我整天都活在学习当中。

Chinese people usually have two word or three word names: the family name, a middle name and the last name.中国人的名字通常由两个字或三个字组成：姓，中间名和最后名。

Family names always come tirst.For example, my full name is Bai Junwei.Bai is my family name. Junwei is my given name.But some Chinese people dont have the middle name. For example, a man called Zhou Jian. Zhou is his family name,and Jian is his given name.姓要放在第一位。例如：我的全名叫白君伟。白是我的姓，君伟是我的名。但有些中国人没有中间的名，例如：一个人叫周健，周是他的姓，健是他的名。

People often use Mr. , Mrs. , or Miss before their family names, but never before.their given names.So you can say "Mr. Zhou", but you could never say "Mr.Jian".人们经常在他姓的后面使用先生、夫人、小姐，但此种说法从不在名字后面使用。所以你能说“周先生”，而不能说“健先生”。

Chinese names are different from English names.In England, the last name is the family name. The first and the middle name is tile given name.For example,there is a man called Jim Henry Brown. Brown is his family name. Jim Henry is his given name.Another difference between~ E.nglish and Chinese names is that in China, the younger peoples names shouldnt be the same as the elders in the family.For example, my grandpas name is Guo Dong, so i cant be called Guo Dong again.This shows that we respect the old people.中国人的名字与英国人的名字不同。在英国，最后一个字是姓，第一个和第二个是名字。例如：有个人叫Jim HenryBrown，Brown是他的姓，JimHenry是他的名字。英文和中文名字的另一个不同之处是：在中国，年轻人一般不能取和老人一样的名字。例如：我的外公叫郭冬，而我不能再叫郭冬，这是对老人的尊重。

In the family, people usually call me Weiwei for short. This is because it is shorter and easier than Bai Junwei, and it also they love me.In one word, Chinese names are quite different from English names.在家里，大人通常简称我伟伟，这是因为这比白君伟短并且容易叫，也显示出了他们对我的疼爱之情。总之，中国人的姓名表示法与英国人不同。

In the last few days, I always wanted to try a part-time job. I stood behind my mother and scared the mother into a big jump. I said, "Mom, Im going to work for you. The salary is one yuan an hour, fifteen minutes and five corners." The mother was stunned for a moment and said: "okay! Make a summer work!" I grabbed the knife water mother, help my mother cut the watermelon, after eating, help my mother dragged to. She paid one yuan and said, "I pay the afternoon pay, and do it well!" I joked, "yes, sir." Mother said, "wash your hands!" after I washed my hands, I did my homework.

Afternoon, the whole family after dinner, I take the initiative to put away the dishes, wash. Mother said, "work positive, reward - one corner!" I almost didnt faint...

I think that a part-time job can help my mother to do physical exercise, housework, can also earn pocket money! It is but Dad, shooting two birds with one stone! I strongly opposed, pocket money only 6 yuan suspended, I dont understand, I earn money and not use it, I just want to have their own money. If you forget to take whatever necessities are in school, you can buy it. I cant think of what my father is.

天蓝白云伴，风轻阳光暖。白的叶，绿的草，专属于美好的绿色校园。当我们正做着自己的事的时候，是否曾设想有一天我们将失去这个美丽的校园?

“课间，当你与同学们在走廊上，操场上聊天，嬉戏时，看到纸屑，不要怕丑，弯腰拾起，没有人会笑你多管闲事。我环保，我美丽!当你看到有人在墙上信笔提书，大练画技时，应当制止。因为你要环保。校园，是如此令人神往，因为它深情灌输着感性与理性交织的思想，让年轻的心从幼稚走向成熟。校园，是如此令人留恋，因为它给予每位学子回忆憧憬的广阔空间，令多少颗失落的心在风雨晨昏中找回自我。青青校园，学子圣地，碧树芳草，一花一木，靠我们全体学子共同呵护，才会春意常在。所以，我们要保护环境，创建美好校园。

绿色校园是美丽的。但她给我们的，更多的是心灵的启迪，思想的陶冶，内在气质的培养。当春天悄然而至，万物复苏，盎然的生机弥漫在树梢。一天的课程结束之后，校园变成我们快乐的游乐园。羽毛球，篮球，乒乓球…。。各个角落空地上都有同学们的嬉笑声……

“学校是我们的家，我们是学校的主人，建设靠的是我们。让我们从点滴做起，爱护校园环境，自我约束，相互检查，明确自身在学校环保工作中的地位。学校绿色需要你，需要我，需要我们大家共同努力。”

五一假期快到了。我们的家庭将要做某事。今天中午我打电话给我弟弟的电话。他问我假期打算做什么。我告诉他我们想去旅行的一天，但在那里我们不决定去。我们打算在5月1日早上睡觉。然后我们下午乘公共汽车去大武口。我们将有一个休息日5月2日。如果5月3日天气好的话，我们就出去旅游了。我要去森林公园。你姐姐的丈夫去虾苗的故乡。他想去钓鱼。

The New Year opened the door for us, and the winter holidays crept to our side. Like last year, I made a "winter vacation plan" early. I dont want to waste this good time.

The first thing is to combine. During this time, I kept reading and writing more. Now I have read six good books and wrote more than ten compositions. I also borrowed the book of the fifth grade from my relatives, and when I had time, I would turn over to look at it, learn the skills, and memorize the formulas.

When youre tired, take a break, watch TV, play computer games, or play games with your neighbors. Of course, you cant spend more time playing than studying! Otherwise its not good. In our stage, the most important thing is to learn, so, can not be too fond of play.

The second point is to help my parents to work. Our parents come back from work and have to do housework. They are very tired when they are busy. When we are sons and daughters, we should help them to do what we can to help them relieve some of the burden. In this way, not only can we exercise our practical ability, strengthen our constitution, and be able to be praised by our parents, not an arrow three?

Third, last point. I want to get into the habit of going to bed early and get up early. In this way, you can kill two birds with one stone, which can enhance the health and fuel economy. Wouldnt that be great?

In winter vacation, I must strictly follow the plan book, happily in the big year, over winter vacation!

一位富翁和他儿子爱好收藏画，他们收藏了从毕加索到拉费奥等很多艺术品。常常他俩坐在一起欣赏着大师的作品。

when the vietnam conflict broke out, the son went to war. he was very courageous and died in battle while rescuing another soldier. the father was notified and grieved deeply for his only son.

当越战爆发的时候，儿子投入了战争。他非常勇敢，在一次作战中因为抢救战友而牺牲了。父亲接到了通知，深深地哀恸他唯一的儿子。

about a month later, just before christmas, there was a knock at the door. a young man stood there with a large package in his hands. he said "sir, you dont

know me, but i am the soldier for whom your son gave his life. he saved many lives that day, and he was carrying me to safety when a bullet struck him in the

heart and he died instantly. he often talked about you and your love for art.’’ the young man held out his package. "i know this isnt much. im really not a great artist, but i think your son would have wanted you to have this." the father opened the package. it was a portrait of his son, painted by the young man.

he stared in awe at the way the soldier had captured the personality of his son in the painting. the father was so drawn to the eyes that his own eyes swelled up

with tears. he thanks the young man and offered to pay him for the picture. "oh no, sir, i could never repay what you son did for me. its a gift.

约一个月之后，正好是圣诞节前，门上传来敲门声。一位年轻人站在那里，手里拿着一个很大的包裹。他说道：“先生，你不认识我，我就是你儿子为了救我而牺牲的那个战士。那天他救了很多人，当他背着我走向安全地带的时候，一颗子弹击中了他的心脏，他顿时就牺牲了。他常常说起你和你对艺术的爱好，”年轻人举起他的包裹，“我知道这不算什么，我是真的不怎样的艺术家，但我想你儿子会要你保留这幅画的。”父亲打开了包裹，是他儿子的一幅肖像画，是这年轻人画的。他惊奇地注视着画中那士兵是如何捕捉到他儿子的个性的。父亲如此地被画里的眼睛吸引，他自己的眼睛也充满了泪水。他谢了那年轻人并提议买下这幅画。“噢，不要钱，先生，我永远不能偿还你儿子给我做的一切。这是礼物。”

the father hung the portrait over his mantle. every time visitors came to his home he took them to see the portrait of his son before he showed them any of the other great works he had collected.

父亲把这肖像画挂在壁炉架上，每次有客人来他家拜访，他总是在给他们看他收藏的许多名作之前，先带他们看儿子的肖像。

the man died a few months later. there was to be a great auction of his great works of art. many people gathered, excited over seeing the great paintings and

having an opportunity to purchase one for their collection. on the platform sat the portrait of his son. the auctioneer pounded his gavel, "we will start with this portrait of the son. who will bid for this picture?

富翁在几个月之后死了。他的伟大收藏也将要被拍卖掉。许多人聚集着，为能一睹这些伟大的收藏以及能从他的收藏里买一个加入自己的收藏品这一机会而激动不已。在讲台上安置着那儿子的肖像画

there was silence. then a ! voice in the back of the room shouted "we want to see the famous paintings. skip this one."

场面非常安静。这时有一个声音在厅堂的后面叫道：“我们要看名画，跳过这一幅。”

but the auctioneer persisted, "will someone bid for this painting? who will start the bidding? $100, $200?"

但拍卖经纪人坚持着：“有没有人投这幅画的标?谁先开始?一百，两百?

another voice shouted angrily, "we didnt come here to see this painting. we came to see the van gohs, the rembrandts. get on with the real bids".

另外一个声音高喊着，非常愤怒：“我们不是来这里看这幅画的，我们是来看梵高的画，看伦伯朗的画的。快进入真正的竞标吧。”

but still the auctioneer continued, "the son! the son! who will take the son?" finally, a voice came from the very back of the room. it was the longtime

gardener of the man and his son. "ill give you $10 for the painting." being a poor man, it was all he could afford.

但拍卖经纪人依旧继续着：“儿子，儿子，谁要这儿子?”终于，一个声音从厅堂的深处传来：“我出十块钱要这画。”因为穷，这是他力所能及的价钱。

"we have $10, who will bid $20??"

"give it to him for $10. lets see the masters".

”

"$10 is the bid, wont someone bid $20?"

“有人标了十块，有谁肯标二十的吗?”

“十块给他吧，让我们看名作。

“标价十块，没有人标二十的吗?”

the crowd was becoming angry. they didnt want the picture of the son. they wanted the more worthy investments for their collections.

the auctioneer pounded his gavel. "going once, twice, sold for $10!"

a man sitting in the second row shouted, "now lets get on with the collection!

the auctioneer laid down his gavel "im sorry, the auction is over".

”

"what about the paintings?"

人群开始愤怒起来。他们不想要这儿子的画。他们要收藏的是更值得投资的东西。

拍卖经纪人敲打着槌子：“一次竞标，两次竞标，十块得标!”

一位坐在第二排的人喊道：“现在让我们开始进入收藏品的竞标。”

那拍卖经纪人放下他的槌子说：“很抱歉，竞标已经结束了。”

“那些收藏品怎么办?”

"im sorry, when i was called to conduct this auction, i was told of a secret stipulation in the will. i was not allowed to reveal that stipulation until this

time. only the painting of the son would be auctioned. whoever bought that painting would inherit the entire estate, including the paintings. the man who took the son, gets everything!"

“对不起，当我被叫来负责这场拍卖的时候，我被告知那人的遗嘱中有秘密的约定，一直到现在我是不允许暴露这个秘密的。只有儿子这幅画是要拍卖的。谁买了这幅画谁就继承整个遗产，包括这幅画。那个男人拿了儿子肖像，得到了一切。”

god gave his son 2000 years ago to die on the cruel cross. much like the auctioneer, his message today is "the son, the son, wholl take the son?" because, you see, whoever takes the son gets everything.

In the United States in the early nineteenth century, Dolly Madison, the wife of the fourth American President, organized an egg roll in Washington, D.C. She had been told that Egyptian children used to roll eggs against the pyramids so she invited the children of Washington to roll hard-boiled eggs down the hilly lawn of the new Capitol building! The custom continued, except for the years during the Civil War. In 1880, the First Lady invited children to the White House for the Egg Roll because officials had complained that they were ruining the Capitol lawn. It has been held there ever since then, only canceled during times of war. The event has grown, and todayEasterMonday is the only day of the year when tourists are allowed to wander over the White House lawn. The wife of the President sponsors it for the children of the entire country. The egg rolling event is open to children twelve years old and under. Adults are allowed only when accompanied by children!

I have heard a beautiful poetry, written by a novelist, Amy Cheung. With a little adjustment, it can vividly depict the alienation among people in reality - "The further distance in the world is not between life and death. But when I stand in front of you, your eyes turn to your smartphone; don’t know that I love you."

The smartphone has been gaining a great popularity, becoming a toxic compulsion. It has invaded our lives and occupied all our interstitial time. It is so commonly seen that the smartphone addicts attend to their phone, ignoring everything. Even meeting with friends, they often pull out the phone in order to take a photo, check a message or even play with a game. Seeming connected with the whole world, they have actually fiddled the conversation and done harm to the relationship.

It is high time that we threw away the phone and raised our heads up. Do cherish the ones around us and appreciate the splendid scenery ahead of us.
