全文共 835 字
+ 加入清单I still remember the first time I went to the zoo.
When I was only five years old, my mother took me there.We took the camera and went to the station together. There were so many monkeys, tigers, lions, wolves and other animals in the zoo. We took many photos in the zoo with the animals. I was pleased to see so many real animals at the same time. They seemed so lovely and active.
I spent a nice day. But on my way home, I began to feel sorry for them. They were taken away from their parents and friends and also far away from the nature. They must have felt lonely, I thought. Every day, the only thing they could do was to sit there and wait for food.
我仍然记得第一次去动物园的那一天。
5岁那年,妈妈带我去动物园。我们带了相机一起过去。那里有猴子、老虎、狮子和狼等等,我们跟它们照了很多相。我很高兴能同时看见那么多活灵活现的动物,他们看上去又活泼又可爱。
我度过了快乐的一天。可是在我回家的路上,我开始替它们难过起来。人们把它们从父母和朋友身边捉走,它们一定感觉很孤单,我想。它们每天惟一可做的事就是等着人们来喂食。

+ 加入清单哲学家苏格拉底曾说:“世界上最快乐的事,莫过于为理想而奋斗”。每个人都有自己的理想,并一直朝着这个目标奋斗着,这的确是一件快乐的事。我也有我自己的理想--做一名英语翻译家。
你们一定想知道我为什么要做英语翻译家?因为我从小就喜欢英语。在我上幼儿园,第一次接触英语的时候,老师教我们读“apple苹果”,“banana香蕉”,老师怕我们不懂,还特意拿来香蕉,指着香蕉对我们说:“这是不是很像‘b’呢?上面瘦瘦的,下面胖胖的。一个个香蕉就成了banana,这样,香蕉的英语是不是很容易拼出来。”老师还教我们学了很多英语单词。从那以后,我就喜欢上了英语。
虽然这个理想对我来说是一件非常遥远的事情,但我愿意为这个理想而努力拼搏。每当我听到别人那一口流利的英语,我都非常羡慕,同时我的心灵也一样受到了鼓舞。我相信只要努力就一定可以做到。现在我会从身边的每一步开始做起,努力学好英语。我希望通过我的努力,可以实现我的梦想。
通向理想的道路是遥远的,艰辛的,但我坚信自己只要为理想奋斗,为理想拼搏,就一定能实现理想。

But these are the students comments on me. I think my biggest problem is the love of two minds, take the last math exam for example: I had the score 100 points, because I be negligent, so a path of two minds, wrong, I will deduct 1 points, only 99 points, but I was careless, I think: anyway, I not like the 2 grade exam Eighty-nine points, on the line, I also got 10 points!

篇20:保护海洋高中英语作文
全文共 2299 字
+ 加入清单Oceans becoming more acidicThe worlds oceans are slowly getting more acidic, say scientists.The researchers from California say the change is taking place in response to higher levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.The lowering of the waters pH value is not great at the moment but could pose a serious threat to current marine life if it continues, they warn.Ken Caldeira and Michael Wickett, from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, report their concerns in the journal Nature.Increasing use of fossil fuels means more carbon dioxide is going into the air, and most of it will eventually be absorbed by seawater.
Once in the water, it reacts to form carbonic acid.Scientists believe that the oceans have already become slightly more acidic over the last century.But these researchers have tried to predict what will happen in the future by combining what we know about the history of the oceans with computer models of climate change."This level of acidity will get much more extreme in the future if we continue releasing CO2 into the atmosphere," said Dr Caldeira."And we predicted amounts of future acidity that exceed anything we saw over the last several hundred million years, apart from perhaps after rare catastrophic events such as asteroid impacts."If carbon dioxide release continues unabated, ocean pH could be reduced by as much as 0.77 units, the authors warn.It is not absolutely clear what that means for marine life, however.
Most organisms live near the surface, where the greatest pH change would be expected to occur, but deep-ocean lifeforms may be more sensitive to pH changes.Coral reefs and other organisms whose skeletons or shells contain calcium carbonate may be particularly affected, the team speculate. They could find it much more difficult to build these structures in water with a lower pH.In recent years some people have suggested deliberately storing carbon dioxide from power stations in the deep ocean as a way of curbing global warming.But Dr Caldeira said that such a strategy should now be re-considered."Previously, most experts had looked at ocean absorption of carbon dioxide as a good thing - because in releasing CO2 into the atmosphere we warm the planet; and when CO2 is absorbed by the ocean, it reduces the amount of greenhouse warming.
