Learning Foreign Languages

In schools all over the world boys and girls are learning foreign languages。 Many adults are

doing so in their spare time。 Everybody knows his own language， but to know another is very useful。

Which is the best way to learn a language? We should remember we all learnt our own language well when we were children。 If we could learn a second language in the same way， it would not seem so difficult。 Think what a small child does。 It listens to what people say and tries to imitate what it

hears。 When it wants something， it has to ask for it。 It is using the language。 It is talking and thinking in it all the time。 If one has to use a second language all the time， he would learn it quickly。

It is important to remember， also， that we learn our own language by hearing people speaking it not by seeing what they write。 We imitate what we hear。 In school， though you learn to read and write as well as to hear and speak， it is best to learn all new words through the ear。 Of course you also learn to read them， spell them and write them。

世界各地的学校中孩子们都在学习外语。很多成年人在业余时间也在学习外语。每人都懂自己的母语，但知道另一门语言也非常有用。

学习外语最好的方法是什么呢?我们应当记得我们是孩子的时候，自己的母语都学得非常好。如果我们能以同样的方式学习第二种语言，那看起来就不会这么难了。想想小孩是怎样做的。孩子听人们说话然后设法模仿听到的东西。当他需要什么东西的时候，必须去要。他是在使用语言。他一直在用语言说话和思考。如果一个人必须始终

使用第二语言，他就会学得很快。

而且，记住我们学习母语时是通过听别人说话而不是看别人写字，这也很重要。我们模仿我们听到的。 学校中，虽然你除了学习听说，还学习读写，但学习所有新单词最好是通过耳朵。当然你也要学会阅读、拼写和写作。

This weekend, there was an art festival in our school, it had been hold for

five years and the school insisted to make it become the feature. I was so

excited, this was the first time for me to join. Early in the morning, I saw

there were so many people coming to the campus, making the campus so lively. The

students dressed so well and gave the warm welcome to the guests. I walked

around and appreciated the painting, every work was drawn by the students, I was

so impressed by these works. There were also some handworks, which were so

creative, it reflected the students’ wisdom. Though we were busy with our

subjects most of the time, some students still kept on their hobbies and made it

their talent. I should learn from them and develop some interest.

When the young people start their career, they will do everything to get

the chance to help their career to make breakthrough, such as follow the

business rules. They choose to drink as much as possible, which is over the

limitation of their bodies. The coming wealth is based on the loss of health.

The media reported the news about how the young people died of drinking a lot of

alcohol. Their ambition made them to undertake the limitation. As a result, they

died at the young age. There is no doubt that health overweighs wealth. If a

rich people didnt have a sound body, how he can enjoy life. A man who has been

badly ill will take special attention to the health. No matter how much money he

is paid, he will turn down the invitation that hurts his body.

National Day is our countrys mothers birthday. On this day, we all Chinese people are happy. On this day, we should live in harmony with the people of our country in order to repay the kindness we have in our country.

On this day, the whole nation has a holiday. Although some people are too busy to work for the motherlands mother to celebrate, but I still believe that they are in different places, in their hearts, is still a deep love of the motherland. They will also be in the hearts of the hearts of the love of the motherland.

A lot of people are wondering: Why study hard? I can definitely tell them that the students have to study hard to repay our country. Mother of the motherland for our selfless dedication, we should not return her?

National Day, people will hold a lot of parties. Most of the party is the great motherland, the mother of the title, which is also the contribution of the people who write the arts to china!

Although there is no mid autumn festival. Spring Festival is so popular, but it also said we are all the children of the Yellow Emperor patriotism.

Look at the mother of the motherland prosperity, people live and work in peace Chinese!

国庆节是我国一年一度祖国妈妈的生日。在这天，我们全中国人民都兴高采烈。在这天，我们全国人民更应该和睦相处，以报答我们对祖国的养育之恩。

在这天，全国人民都放假了。尽管有些人们因工作的确太忙而不能为祖国妈妈庆祝了，但我依旧相信身存异地的他们，在心中，依旧是深深地爱这祖国妈妈的。他们同样会以心中的满腔热血表示对祖国的敬爱。

很多人们疑惑不解：为什么要好好学习呢?我可以肯定地告诉他们，学生们好好学习是要报答我们的祖国。祖国妈妈为我们无私奉献，难道我们不应该回报她吗?

国庆节这天，人们会举办许多晚会。晚会大多是以伟大的祖国妈妈为题的，这也是那写艺人们对祖国所做的贡献啊!

国庆节虽然没有中秋节。春节那么热闹，但它更表示的是我们炎黄子孙的爱国之心。

望祖国妈妈繁荣兴盛，望中国人民安居乐业!

今天，我做了2件好事。第一件事帮奶奶从山上打了一桶水回来。因为我知道每天都要提着四个桶上山打水，我觉得奶奶非常累，就帮奶奶提了一桶水。奶奶夸我长大了，懂事了。

Today, I did two good things. The first thing is to help grandma get a

bucket of water from the mountain. Because I know that I have to carry four

buckets of water up the mountain every day. I think grandma is very tired, so I

helped her carry a bucket of water. Grandma praised me for growing up and being

sensible.

下午，我又给妈妈一个大惊喜了。妈妈走进我的房间一看，非常惊讶，说：“你真是一个懂事的孩子。”得到了奶奶和妈妈的表扬，我非常高兴。

In

the afternoon, I gave my mother another big surprise. When my mother came into

my room, she was very surprised and said, "you are really a sensible child." I

am very happy to be praised by my grandma and

mother.

Saturday， my grandma made dumplings， one of the dumplings like obedient little ducks swimming in the bowl。 My in the mind have a little not to eat them。 But the smell of fragrance and let me greedy slobber， I eat up tit-bit。 But I eat dumplings， the heart have a kind of feeling can not tell。翻译：星期六我奶奶家包饺子了，一个个的饺子像听话的小鸭子在碗里游来游去。我心里有点不忍心吃他们了。但是那扑鼻而来的香味又让我馋得流口水，我就大口大口地吃了起来。但是我吃完饺子，心里有一种说不出来的感觉。

My best friend is Jim. He is a cool boy. He has curly blond hair, big

eyes and a small mouth. He likes to eat strawberries and bananas, and he loves

sports. He often plays basketball in the school playground. He watches sports

every night. He has good manners and studies well, so everyone likes to make

friends with

him.

我最好的朋友是吉姆，他是一个很酷的男孩。他有一头金黄的卷发，大大的眼睛和小小的嘴巴。他喜欢吃草莓和香蕉，并且他十分热爱运动，他经常在学校的操场打篮球，每天晚上他都会看体育节目。他有礼貌，学习好，因此大家都喜欢和他做朋友。

噢耶！过年喽！吃年夜饭了！”我高兴地到处嚷嚷。

除夕之夜是一家人团聚的时刻，俗话说得好：“有钱没钱，回家过年。”这一天是中华民族团聚欢乐的好时光。

我家也不例外，妈妈和姥姥做年夜饭，爸爸和姥爷贴春联，我呢在楼下和小伙伴玩鞭炮，大家都忙得不亦乐乎。

随着“久经菜场”的妈妈一声大喊：“上菜了……”拉开了年夜饭的序幕。望着这一桌热气腾腾的年夜饭，我馋得口水直往肚子里流。妈妈指着一盘红烧鲤鱼说：“这是‘年年有余’！”姥姥指着红烧鸡说：“这是‘吉祥如意’！”爸爸与姥爷碰杯进酒：“祝您老福如东海，寿比南山！”并夹起青菜对二老说：“这是长庚菜，祝您二老长命百岁。”姥爷捋捋胡须，夹起用玉米粉做起的龙须饼说：“这是‘双龙戏珠’该外孙吃，争取考双百！”我开玩笑地回答：“考试有四门呢！”“哦，那就再夹两个！”姥爷乐呵呵地又往我的碗里夹了两个，“那就考两个双百!”“好，好!”我狼吞虎咽地吃了起来……

这时，姥爷笑咪咪地说：“我来给大家发红包，前提是每人必须回答一个问题。”大家顿时安静了下来。“老婆子，请听题：“长长一串，一爆赛过红豆子。”姥姥稍思片刻说：“爆竹。”“中奖！”姥爷乐呵呵得将红包递给了姥姥。

后来姥爷又对爸爸说：“小小一个本，计算是第一。”爸爸脱口而出：“是计算机。”爸爸笑嘻嘻地接过了红包。

“外孙，该你了。我来考考你的数学，5×6×3.14等于多少？”我思考了一下：“等于94.2。”“正确！”我也赢得了一个红包。

“女儿，你是家庭主妇，我问你，什么东西越洗越小？”“肥皂。”妈妈也顺理成章地得到了一个大红包。

屋内笑声阵阵，屋外鞭炮声声，这也正应了门外那副春联：四海为春春不老，九州同乐乐无穷。

Taiwan is part of our country. It is the largest island in China. It has an area of about 36,000 square kilometers and a population of over 20 million. It is separated from the mainland by the Taiwan Strait. On the island the climate is mild and the resources are very rich.

Dear Nate,

I am so excited to hear that you will come to learn Chinese in our school.

Now let me tell you something about our school. Our school is the key school of

our city with the most beautiful campus. It has many trees, flowers and a lot of

excellent teachers in our school. Classes are interesting, the teachers are

In march in the wet air spring, I always imagine a picture: garden outside on the grass with small yellow and purple, the middle of the courtyard of the cherry tree tree tree full of flowers to bloom in a warm southerly breeze slowly, in the replacement of the four seasons of green fruit with wide bilge painful expression, from shiny branches grow out of it. Six in the middle of the night of spring, the old cat cant sleep all night, under the tree stamping, swan couples, bark, and the ducks who teams in pairs to fly to the moon.

And I always wake up in the middle of the night, look at the moon rose down-stairs branches long painting on the pebbles, which are covered with buds of green, please.

In the middle of the night I heard the spring is static. Lingering in the ear, there is a special sound short, and want to pour a spoonful of sugar into the tea when the sound, it should be a light rain slapping on to the leaves on the trees. They are reminiscent of the day the road leading to the village.

"Sand sand sand......", in the darkness, forming a slow rhythm.

Slow is composed in B minor. Followed the path of the night and smooth.

On the grass in the spring, filled with fluffy dandelion, with a light yellow colour and lustre, clusters into a cluster to hide.

Like the raindrops in the air.

Dont disturb them. Heavy sleep sleep. Gentle wind rustled gradually forming the flowers. In the gentle spring.

"But you and I as a life hasnt been crying, and gets a long sleep time."

Its just my fantasy. Can you see?

"-- - I can see it."

在三月春天濡湿的空气里，我总想象着一幅画面：花园外面的草地上开满了黄色和紫色的小花，院子当中的樱桃树树上满树的花都从熏风里缓慢地绽放，在四季的更替里青色的果子带着张大的胀痛表情，从发亮的枝条里长出来。春天的深夜六，老猫整夜不能安睡，在树下跺着步，天鹅夫妇发出叫声，而野鸭子们成队成对地向月亮飞去。

而我总在深夜醒来，看月亮把楼下的蔷薇的枝条长长地画在卵石上，那上面长满了青请的花苞。

我在深夜里，听见了春天的静。萦绕在耳边的，有一种声音特别短促，想一勺糖倒进红茶时发出的声音一样，那应该是小雨拍打到树上的叶子的声音。它们让人想起了白天那些引领着道路通向小区的梧桐树。

“沙……沙……沙”，在夜幕里，形成一段缓慢的旋律。

缓慢是沉稳的B小调。循着夜的轨迹滑着。

在春天的草地上，长满了毛茸茸的蒲公英，带着一种淡黄的色泽，成簇成簇拥挤地隐藏着。

像是空气中的雨滴。

没有惊扰。沉沉眠眠。温柔的风拂过逐渐成形的花海。在温和的春里。

“而你我如同尚未啼哭的生命，时光切不断绵长的沉眠。”

这一切只是我的幻想。你看得见么?

“―――我看得见。”

放假回来，清理了不少杂物，然后，感觉，好舒服好舒服

首先，搬走了对着床头好几年的鞋柜(妈妈说要用来做我的书柜，打开一看，居然还真的装了很多我的书在里面)。接着，对着窗口不过是对着床脚的，是一棵铁树，很茂盛很茂盛，我每次打开窗口，见到它的刺就很不舒服很不舒服，于是，我又把它移开了。

然后，把对着和斜对着我房间的两个杂物房里面的东西(八成可以叫做垃圾)八成搬开了。接着，对着房间卫生间的石头，花盆，一张远比上述烂的烂台，很多盆芦荟(原来芦荟还挺多刺的)也搬开了。

在阳台上，有着一堆烂泥紧贴着我房间也正好对着床头(想起许志安的那首歌--烂泥，大家不妨再听一下，那首歌曾经是当年的金曲，许还居然拿了最佳男歌手)，烂泥上面还居然铺着一层铁网，上面堆着如下物体：一个很烂很烂的老鼠笼，10个以内的烂花盆，几块烂石，还有其他我都忘记了。清理烂泥时，居然发现里面还有很多碎瓦，更奇怪的是，里面还有好多条铁条，很幼，但比铁丝要粗韧，而奇怪的是，它门都对着我的床头，真奇怪啊(不禁想到自己自从搬到这个金菊花小区之后发生了这么多事)。

之后，我发现，对着我房间的还有一棵长的很茂盛的黄皮(白话俗称鸡屎果)，听到这个名字，我就想把它砍掉，但妈妈已经种了很多年了，太大了，其实我当时也不明白，为什么盆景要种黄皮。不过，妈妈这两年还种了番薯藤，好多盆都放在窗口边，还有菲菜(白话称为九菜)，至于杨桃，我觉得很难入口。

这些天搬了很多很多东西，虽然辛苦，自己身体也不好(自从搬到这个小区后，到现在好像周身都是病，斜视，肥胖，精神不佳，应该是很不佳，肾亏，疝气，最近还出现了高血压迹象，心跳很快，呼吸急速，还有以前破相所带来的的听力下降，鼻炎，怕见阳光，交际困难，混混鄂鄂，做事轮尽，个人能力严重下降，被人突然无端指着来毒骂(一个初中的杨姓同学)都居然可以无反应等等了)，但搬走后，真的舒服很多，真的，真的很舒服，缠绕自己多年的破相(被妈妈捏难了鼻子，但妈妈却说，这是你自己的事情，要靠你自己去冲破这个困扰，谁也帮不了你)困扰也松了。

今天先写到这里，下次继续，再见。

Christmas Day is on December 25th, though it originated in the western

country, now it is popular around the world. In China, people will spend that

day happily, they will eat apples on Christmas Eve, the children will put the

socks so that they could get the presents from Santa Claus. When I went to

college, I had an unforgettable memory about my first Christmas Day.

As my major is English, I have many foreign teachers, so that I could have

access to the local culture from them. Christmas Day is a big day for them, when

the day came, they asked us to spend the day with them, because most of them

left home and did not have families around. My classmates and I went to the

foreign teacher’s home at that day, we brought some presents, when we arrived at

his house, we found a beautiful tree with shinning lights. My teachers taught us

how to cook all the cookies, we were having such great fun. I made the cookies

with many favors. We talked happily and sung Christmas songs.

I learned how the foreign people spend their big day, it was such

unforgettable for me.

I’m very glad to tell you about my winter holiday .It will be both relaxing and meanful . Let me tell you in detail.

First, studying is the most important thing for me, so I have to finish my homework carefully and do lots of exercises everyday .I’ll probably have two or three lessons so that I can make more progress.

Then I should do sports at the same time. Not only because the PE exam in next term, but also for my own health.

Phsics interests me a lot ,and I also like to read some books about it in my free time ．At the end of the vacation,maybe I’ll go sighting with some friends and some books to another city .

I think my plan is the best possible one .I’m hopeful the winter holiday will come soon .

According to the variety of social background, personal experience and

personal emotion, differernt people have different opinions towards things.

Thus, there is no doubt that generation gap exists everywhere. We always find

that there are big differences between us and the old generation. We always

regard the old are outdated, while they think us are crazy. They can’t bear the

dress we like, the fashion we pursue or even our childish thinking. Instead, we

could put up with their standpat thingking and their “feudal rulers”. Thus, the

generation gap becomes more and more obvious and serious. However, why don’t we

realize that opinions can be changed, while people can’t. So, we can think in an

other way, learn to accept. It is certain that we can narrow the generation gap

to live a more harmonious life.

导语：每个人都有自己的妈妈，你喜欢你的妈妈吗?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!

My mother has no idea that her ninetieth birthday is coming up. She has no notion of the time of day, the day of the week. the season of the year, the year of the century. No notion of the approaching millennium. And no idea any longer, who I am. Her forgetting of me happened just a few months ago, after I had been traveling for more than a month and hadnt been to see her. When I came back, she asked me if I were her niece, l said no, I was her daughter. "Does that mean I had you?" she asked. 1 said yes. "Where was I when l had you?" she asked me. I told her she was in a hospital in Far Rockaway. New York. "So much has happened to me in my life." she said "You cant expect me to remember everything."

My mother was once a beautiful woman, but all her teeth are gone now. Toothless. No woman can be considered beautiful. Whenever I visit her in the nursing home, she is sitting at the table in the common dining room, her head in her hands, rocking. Medication has eased her anxiety, but nothing moves her from her stupor except occasional moments of fear, too deep for medication. This is a room that has no windows, that lets in no light, in which an overlarge TV is constantly blaring, sending images that no one looks at where the floors are beige tiles, the walls cream colored at the bottom, papered halfway up with a pattern of nearly invisible grayish leaves. Many of the residents sit staring, slack-jawed, open mouthed. I find it impossible to imagine what they might be looking at.

When I walk into the dining room on the day of my mothers birthday, I see that she has already been served lunch. The staff has forgotten to hold it back. Though I told them a week ago that I would be providing lunch. She hasn’t touched anything on her tray except a piece of carrot cake, which she holds in her hands. The icing is smeared on her hands and face. I dont want my friends to see her smeared with icing, so I wet a paper towel and wipe her. This fills me with a terrible tenderness, recalling, as it does. a gesture I have performed for my children. As I wipe my mothers face, I see that her skin is still beautiful I hold her chin in my hand and kiss her forehead. I tell her its her birthday, that shes ninety years old. "How did that happen?" she asks. "I cant understand how that could happen."

l have brought her a bouquet of crimson, yellow, and salmon-pink snapdragons. She likes the flowers very much. She likes the name. "Snapdragons. It seems like an animal thats going to bite inc. But its not an animal, its a plant. Thats a funny thing,"

I have bought food that I hope will please my mother, and that will be easy for her to eat: orzo salad with little pieces of crayfish cut into it, potato salad, small chunks of marinated tomatoes. I have bought paper plates with a rust-colored background, upon which are painted yellow and gold flowers and blue leaves.

My friends Nola and Gary come for my mothers birthday. When we are about to leave, I tell my mother that Im going on vacation, mat I wont see her for three weeks, that 1 am going to the sea. "How will I stand that, how will I stand thats she says, but I know that a minute after I’m gone shell forget I was there.
