"池塘边的榕树上，知了在声声叫着夏天……"每当长期这首，我的眼前总是闪现出童年美好的画面;一副天真浪漫的笑容，一张无忧无虑的笑脸。

随着社会的发展，人性中那份最真最纯最自然的童心似乎成了一种美丽的传说。童心，你到哪里去了呢?

面对渐行渐远的童年，我的心中不由升腾起对童心的强烈渴望:纯真的童心，无论你是在天涯，还是在海角，我一定要找回你，让你再次来到我身边。

找回童心，让鸟儿捎个信儿给春天，告诉它，来年的时候，让大地都充满绿色，让所有的树苗都长成参天大树，让所有的鸟儿都在树上筑巢。

找回童心，让鱼儿捎个信儿给夏天，告诉它，来年的时候，让它多下点雨，把整个世界变成一个大鱼池，让所有的鱼儿都周游世界。

找回童心，让风儿捎个信儿给秋天，告诉它，来年的时候，多刮些风，让所有枯黄的叶子都落下来，变成金币。

找回童心，让童心捎个信儿给冬天，告诉它，来年的时候，下一场大雪，让所有的雪花，都覆盖在童心上。

找回童心，找回那些久违的童真情怀，找回想象力和好奇心，让我们以一颗虔诚的童心去发现更美丽的世界。

找回童心，我们应该怀着一颗童心，擦亮我们疲倦的眼睛，让那童真的忧伤散去，回到我们心灵的秋千上，用童真荡出生命美丽的弧线，去描绘展现在我们眼前的美丽多彩的世界。

现在才知道，时间似水长流，人的童心便是海上孤帆，风雨过后，童心依然。

[描写朋友的英语作文200

我的动物朋友是一只小狗，它叫布丁，它又是一只可爱的小母狗。可是妈妈工作忙，照顾不过来。没办法啦，妈妈就把布丁送到了姥姥家，我一万个不放心呀，怕姥姥照顾不好布丁。

布丁长着一双水汪汪的大眼睛，大大的耳朵，一个又黑又圆的小鼻子。四条又长又细的腿，全身长满棕色的毛，又小又短的尾巴，摇来摆去的看起来可爱极了。

他喜欢吃肉和啃骨头，每一次爸爸炖大棒骨和炖肉时，他总是眼巴巴的看着，可怜极了。肉炖好了我们一开吃，它就不停的在我的身边走来走去，还时不时的看着我哼哼两声，好像再说：“还有我呢，别把我忘了，给我点儿吧。”我就给了他一块大棒骨。当然啦，是我啃剩下的骨头，布丁一看骨头就奔过去叼跑了，因为呀它怕我再抢回去。只见它按住骨头，津津有味的吃起来。偶尔抬头看看我，又像在说：“真好吃啊！”

布丁喜欢在草地上撒欢儿，可是布丁跑的太快了，有时刹不住车一下子就撞在了树上。我还和布丁玩抓人游戏，就是我跑布丁在后面追，我跑多快它就跑多快，有时它甚至跑得比我还快呢。我会跑到一块大石头上，布丁就抓不到我了。只能在下面转圈干着急。

这就是我家的小布丁，多可爱呀！等妈妈有时间啦，我一定会把布丁接回来。

My English teacher is Miss Hou, all the students like her so much. I am one of them, Miss Hou is the one I adore, she is so patient and kind to me. When I have question about English, she is pleased to explain the question, even though I still have question, she keeps answer them until I understand. Miss Hou is a great teacher.

我的英语老师是候老师，所有的学生都很喜欢她。我是其中的一员，侯老师是我崇拜的一个人，她很有耐心，对我很友好。当我对英语有问题时，她很乐意去解释，即使我还有问题，她一直在回答，知道我弄懂。侯老师是一位好老师。

家是一缕阳光，照亮了你前进的方向;家是一个港湾，等待着你回来停靠;家更是你人生中的依靠，酸甜苦辣，才是家的味道。 The home is a ray of sunshine, which illuminates the direction of your movement; home is a harbor, waiting for you to come back and stop;It is the taste of home.

有时一碗白米饭，几盘小菜，就能使你放下手中的事情，坐在桌边，与家人一齐津津乐道。也许饭菜并没有餐厅酒店的那般美味精致;也许碗筷也没有饭馆旅店的那样精致光滑，可是当你用起那无比熟悉的餐具，吃起那年复一年、日复一日的普通食物，你会感觉到一种特殊的温暖。这种温暖润泽了你的心灵，洗净了你身上一天的尘土，仿佛还有阵阵清风吹在了你的心间，令你痴迷。

家中的瓜籽，是一种令人留恋的小食。坐在沙发上，看着电视，母亲这时便会拿出一袋瓜籽，紧之后便是那“咔嚓、咔嚓”熟悉的声音，从那灰黑的外壳中露出来的是饱满而金黄的果仁。父母亲总是嗑，但他们嗑出来的瓜籽仁都要一颗不剩的塞在了我的手中，吃着香气四溢的瓜籽仁，我的心也暖了。

就连家中的争吵，也会有再熟悉可是的味道。母亲与父亲争执的是父亲不太主动做家务，母亲与我争执的是我缺乏主动性，而我与妹妹争执的往往是学习上的问题。在争吵之后，总会有那么一段时间两人不说话，但不久还是免不了有个人主动要求和好，另一个人也早想和好，两人便又重归于好了!

家的味道是自我最熟悉的味道。就像是五味瓶，酸甜苦辣各有各的一种滋味，但在这浓郁的家的气息中，包含着家中每个人的爱，让这个家庭充满着的，是爱的味道!

同学们，今年的暑假你们行动了吗?没有行动没关系，那你就随着镜头一起来分享一下我们的大海之行吧! Students, do you act this summer? It doesnt matter if you dont have action, then you will share our sea with the camera!

镜头一：你看到那几个抡着裤角到大腿上站在海边的孩子吗?那就是我与我的伙伴们;我们正在与海浪玩耍呢!我们站在比较浅的海边，每当一层层海浪向我们涌来的时候，我们都会呼叫着跳起来。更加神奇的是每当海水下退的时候，我们脚底的沙粒就好像忽然被人偷走了一般随着海水流向大海。

你听，多愁善感的小盈在说：“海水都把我们的裤子打湿了，而我们没有衣服换，怎么办才好啊?”旁边的柳红大声呼喊着说：“管它的，先痛快地玩一顿再说：”讨论过后，我们又投入到了大海的怀抱，挥洒着青春的汗水，感受着大海对我们的抚摸。

镜头二：你看到了那帅气逼人的背影没有?没错，那就是我们班最调皮的宏平。他拿着那把锄头是在锄田吗?不是的，他是在挖海马。看到这里你一定会想问。海马不是生活在深海里的吗?怎么会是用挖的呢?别急，让我一一为你解说。没错，海马是生活在深海里的，可此海马非彼海马，我所说的海马只是一种类似于螃蟹的蟹类而已，它们经常生活在海滩上的小洞里，它们的洞穴非常深，所以要用挖的。并且这种海马很难挖到，有时候一天下来也只是挖到几十个而已民。你看那电宏平傻笑的样子。你就知道肯定是他好运地挖到了一个，多幸运的家伙啊!

镜头三：这次我们的镜头切换到的是离海比较远一的一个水洼旁。这个水洼地势比较低，所以晚上涨潮的时候海水会把它灌满，而白天退潮时并没有把全部的海水带走，所以一并的那些小鱼儿也被留在了水洼里，我这次要带你观看的就是捕鱼大作战。

因为水洼里的水太浑浊看不清楚鱼在哪儿且水洼不在，所以伙伴们就用一个袋子在水洼里胡乱装出一袋子水，然后把袋子带到比较高的地方一倒，袋子里的水就会流回水洼里，而小鱼儿就会在地上活蹦乱跳，伙伴们就把它们从地上捡起来放在瓶子里。你看，这不，小征就捞出了男交大的鲫鱼，而旁边的王朋看着心里痒痒也想捞出一条，正拼命地捞着呢!

怎么样?我们这次的大海之行还不赖吧!如果你也想加入我们的行列，我们将会举双手欢迎，等待着你的到来哦!大海，你是属于我们大家的!

我今年看了两部电影，一部是《小门神》、一部是《年兽大作战》，都是关于“年”，关于“春节”的故事，带给了我许多快乐和思考，让我更加热爱我最喜欢过的节日——春节。 I watched two movies this year, one is "Little Gate God", the other is "New Years Battle", all about "year", about "year", about "year", about "year".The story of the Spring Festival has brought me a lot of happiness and thinking, making me more love my favorite holiday -the Spring Festival.

春节是中国人的节日，全国人民欢庆她、热爱她!

寒假一到，春节即将来临，这是我最向往、兴奋，也带着一丝丝忧伤的时刻。春节前，爸爸妈妈都会请好长假，带着我回到爸爸的故乡——美丽的海南，去和年迈的“阿妈”(奶奶)、叔叔、姑姑等亲人团聚。虽然兴奋，但是我想到要和日夜照顾我的外公外婆分离，虽然短暂，但是在这辞旧迎新、全家团圆的日子里，不能与他们一起共度春节，眼泪总会在我眼眶里打转。细心的外婆发现了，摸着我的头说：“好孩子，过完年，你们很快就回长沙了，要开开心心地过年，过个平安年!”

我就在这既快乐又牵挂的心情里，和爸爸妈妈踏上了往南飞的航班。

海南的春节，特别热闹!归乡的人来这儿过年，外乡的人也来这儿过年，为什么呢?因为海南是中国最南边的海岛，是个旅游城市，冬天特别的温暖舒适，所以海南的春节是本乡人的大节日、是外乡人的渡假日。

海南的春节真不一般啊!

除夕的那天，各家各户都贴上了对联和门神二将，同姓的族人都会准备好拜祖先的物品。一大早，大家同时出发，跟“祖宗”拜年。大人小孩、男人女人，全部出动。庙堂外的我们神情庄重，也满心欢喜，庙堂外撑起的那根竹竿，像要穿到云朵里，和高高的椰子树打招呼，竹竿上挂着红红的炮竹，和竹竿一样长，压得它像一个驮背的老公公。炮竹声，响彻四方，意味着怀念、希望，意味着新年来到!

七十多岁的阿妈，虽然不会说普通话，也听不懂普通话，但是我能感受到她有多开心。虽然叔叔婶婶做的饭菜不合我们的口味，但是我能感受到他们的真心!

除夕的夜晚，我们穿着夏天的衣裳，放花炮、数星星、说家常、看晚会，喜气洋洋，亲情浓浓。

春节期间，我去过橡胶林、椰子林、香蕉林、甘蔗地，去过海边，游浅水、捡贝壳、玩沙土、坐游艇、眺望远方……

一眨眼，春节的假期接近尾声了，我们又带着不舍离开海南，带着阿妈的叮嘱和眼泪回到长沙。从我懂事起的每一个春节都是这样过的。

春节，有你，有我，有团聚，有分离，但是我们都充满着对新一年的祝愿和希望!我们的生活一天比一天好，思念一天比一天长。春节的每一个祝福都变成了现实。

春节，我爱你!

Dear Sir,

I would like to apply for the post of Works Manager, which was advertised in The Guardian of I2 October 2004. I feel that my qualifications and experience are ideally suited for the position.

I was born in 1968, and I went to school from 1973 to 1988. In 1987 I took the General Certificate of Education, and I got good grades in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. After leaving school, I attended the Orient Technical College, where I first studied Fiber Technology and Color Chemistry; later I studied other subjects related to textile manufacture, and in 1991 I obtained the Diploma in Textiles.

After completing my studies, I joined the Top Clothing Company where I worked until 1996. In that year I moved to Prior Productions, who was pleased with my work, and as a result, in 1998, I was promoted to Assistant Works Manager there.

I enjoy my work, and I am prepared to work hard. Moreover, I am sure that Prior Productions would give me an excellent reference. I therefore feel that my application deserves your serious consideration.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully,

Mary Ma

人都会经历成长，成长就如一次次风雨，把我们洗净;成长也如一把刮刀，一次又一次地把我们磨练得圆润，无论是为人还是处事。成长或许会获得喜悦，那种让人发自内心的欢喜;也或许会流下泪水，但眼泪总会帮你明亮眼睛，找到成功的方向。成长最终会让你从毛毛虫蜕变成美丽的蝴蝶。 Everyone will experience growth, growing like wind and rain again and again, and wash us;Is it a person or doing it.Growth may get joy, the kind of joy that makes people from the heart; it may also shed tears, but tears will always help you bright eyes and find the direction of success.Growth will eventually make you transform from caterpillar into beautiful butterflies.

人都会有成长，当你发现自己不再是世界中心的时候。小时候，我就是皇宫里的公主，爸妈掌心上的明珠，被宠爱包裹着，仿佛全世界都围绕着我转。直到那次……

那年我5岁，在一个飘着毛毛细雨的下午，我去参加区钢琴演奏比赛。午饭后妈妈忙着帮我梳头、换裙子，外婆帮我穿鞋子、戴发夹……把我打扮得像个洋娃娃，爸爸既担任车夫工作，又是服装、水瓶的搬运工，仿佛全世界都围绕着我转。我前呼后拥的来到了比赛地点，刚到达候场室，爸爸急着去领参赛号码，妈妈忙着去询问比赛事宜，全家只有我一人孤零零的站在候场厅里。

此时比赛候场的人已很多，但我感觉特别的安静，看着墙上的钟一分一秒的过去，心里有些不安，我开始有些着急，在大厅里到处找妈妈，那时的我很胆小，也不敢询问工作人员，就像一只迷路的小羔羊，东跑西撞。最后小小的内心终于承受不了了，一个人在大厅里哭了起来，那是我第一次感到那么无助，才发现自己不是世界的中心。那一次，我悄然成长。

人生总会有成长，有些事当你明知道无法完美完成时，但还应尽力争取的时候……

在我比较小的时候就生过一场病，后来在药物的帮助下康复了，但从那以后，我的体质就一直不好。上六年级那年，学校开展体育运动会，原本体质不好的我被同学以开玩笑的方式申报了400米跑步比赛。400米比赛马上就要开始了，内心无比恐慌的我站在起跑线上，周围每一丝空气里都渗透着加油声、呐喊声，让我紧张得喘不过。

我只能无力的看着起跑的方向，等待着起跑的枪响。“碰”枪声一响，我拼尽全力向前冲去，跑过50米时，我还居第四，随着跑的距离越长，名次就越往后，眼看着对手一个个的超越我，我拼尽全身力量，可脚就是不听使唤，好像灌了铅似的，怎么也抬不起来，一个念头闪过脑海——干脆不跑了!

速度明显慢了，这时周围的加油声好似变成了“逃兵、胆小鬼”，像长了脚似的直蹿进我的耳朵里。于是我咬咬牙，奋力向前冲，坚持冲过终点。当我冲过终点时，那几个曾经戏弄过我同学向我竖起了大拇指。这次比赛虽然没有名次，但我很开心——我尽力了。

人总会有成长，学习和生活中遇到的困难和挫折都是我们成长的机会，正如毛毛虫需经过一次又一次成长的蜕变，最终成为一只美丽的蝴蝶，自由飞翔于蓝天，获得属于自己的那份快乐和自由。

“清明时节雨纷纷，路上行人欲断魂。借问酒家何处有，牧童遥指杏花村。”正如唐代大诗人杜牧的名诗一样，每年的清明都是伴着蒙蒙细雨而至，它给人的感觉总是忧愁的。 "The rainy season is there, pedestrians want to break the soul on the road. Ask the restaurant where there is, shepherd is far away from Xinghua Village."Every year, Qingming is accompanied by drizzle, and it feels sad.

这不，一年一度的清明节又伴着蒙蒙细雨到来了。

这天早上，又是浓郁的天，徘徊了一会了，感到分外忧愁，仍是不适宜!被爸爸拉去吃了早饭，拿起香纸，扛起锄头扫墓去了。

踏着路上的荆棘，顺着泥泞的小路，我们来到了老爷爷、老奶奶的坟前。爸爸把坟四周的杂草除掉之后，我在上面贴黄纸，插上香就离去了。

众多亲人的坟前都去过了，我们又冒着小雨，准备去爷爷奶奶的坟前。一路上，花呀，草呀，我无心欣赏;鸟叫声，虫鸣声，我无心聆听，只顾着早些来到坟前。一会儿，我们到了。望着孤零零的坟墓，我不禁满腹忧愁。待爸爸锄完草，贴完纸后，我们又拿出纸钱跪在坟前，将它们全部撒在坟上……

雨越下越大，花草被打得东倒西歪，周围一片死气沉沉。此情此景，使我一股思念之情油然而生：想想他们生前对我的关爱，带给我的欢乐，想到他们临终前的遗嘱，我不禁一阵惆怅，顿时泪流满面。此时，爸爸也流泪了。雨势并不减退，我们已经哭成了一个泪人，好久才站起来。

这时，我看见了远处火红的杜鹃花。听妈妈说，杜鹃花又称清明花，它之所以在清明时节开放，是因为它是纪念和安抚亡灵的物品。于是，我跑了过去，摘了几束插在爷爷奶奶的坟前，希望他们都能得到安抚……

年年都有清明，年年都有不同的忧愁。这忧愁，不是任何人都能感受到的。我向往在这雨中的忧愁，所以我向往清明节的光临!

____ She is my good friend. She is a lovely little girl. Her eyes are big

and bright, like shining stars; She has a round face and a pair of lovely

dimples when she smiles. LAN LAN is very optimistic and always smiles. Whenever

I see her smiling face, I feel happy.

After school, LAN LAN and I often exercise on the playground. We like

running very much and often have running competitions. In a running race, I

accidentally fell down and couldnt help crying. Lan Lan hurriedly ran over to

help me and encouraged me to carry on the game to the end. I clenched my teeth

and tried to rush to the finish line. LAN LAN is waiting for me at the end.

Cheer for me!

This is my good friend, a kind little girl. She always gives roses and

shares happiness with others.

____是我的好朋友，她是个可爱的小姑娘。她的眼睛大大的，亮亮的，就像闪亮的星光;脸蛋圆圆的，笑起来有一对可爱的小酒窝。兰兰非常乐观，总是面带微笑，每当我看到她的笑脸，也跟着快乐起来。

放学以后，我和兰兰经常在操场上锻炼身体。我们很喜欢跑步，经常进行跑步比赛。在一次跑步比赛中，我不小心摔倒了，眼泪忍不住流下来。兰兰连忙跑过来扶我，还鼓励我要将比赛进行到底。我咬咬牙，努力冲向终点。兰兰在终点等我呢，为我欢呼加油!

这就是我的好朋友，一个善良的小姑娘。她总是予人玫瑰，与人分享快乐。

众所周知，书迷就是痴迷于书籍的人。我的好朋友是个书迷，她抽空就往书堆里钻。 As we all know, book fans are people who are obsessed with books.My good friend is a fans, and she took the time to drill into the pile.

周末，我如约去她家玩。进入她的房间，我被眼前景象惊呆了!我仿佛走进书店一样，书架上、书桌上、床上都被书包围了。古今中外的小说、散文、漫画，杂志，应有尽有。对于我这个客人，她并没有过分热情的招待，只是说让我随便玩随便看，她却自顾自的看起了书。作为好朋友，我已经习惯了她的脾气。

我顺手拿起桌子上的一本《封印之书。镜之门》，这是一本催泪的小说。一个绿叶形状的小书签夹在了书中。打开那页，只见书中被她用各种符号圈画出了许多好词佳句，在文章的间隙，还画了一些笑脸和哭脸。我问她原因，她说这些都是看到高兴和难过的地方。

我抬起头，正好碰触到她的目光，好像又在回忆书中的情节了。转瞬间，她低下头又开始读书了。午后的阳光像是被谁掠去了似的，不再耀人眼目，而是十分柔和明亮，像一个俏丽的少女一样温恬的穿过云层，穿过窗户，射到她的脸上。一副淡紫色的眼镜架到她高挺的鼻梁上，两只炯炯有神的.大眼睛游走于书中的字里行间。

我几次给她说话，都没有把她从书中的世界拉回来，她依然津津有味的看着。可能是看到了精彩的地方，只见她手舞足蹈，嘴里还哼哼唧唧的唱着不着调的曲子。被笑容打开的小嘴，漏出两排整齐洁白的牙齿。可爱的马尾辫也跟着跳起了舞。过了一会，她又安静下来。只见她时而托着腮，时而又用笔圈画着，右手不时的托起下滑的镜架。

时间像沙漏一样，整个下午我和她在书的陪伴下很快就度过了。我被她读书的热情所感染。读书增加了她的想象力，增长了她的写作水平，使她的作文成绩稳居班级之冠。

她就是我的小伙伴索欣钰，一个痴痴的小书迷。一个值得我学习的好伙伴。

端午节(the Dragon Boat Festival)，又称重五节，于每年农历五月初五庆祝。

这是广泛流传2000多年的民间节日，也是中国最重要的节日之一。端午节当天举行各种庆祝活动，吃粽子和赛龙舟(dragon boat
