My English Study

How time flies! My three-year middle school life will be over soon。 Looking back， I have many memories of my English study。

When I entered the middle school， I had so many difficulties with my English。 I was not able to understand the teacher in class， and I couldn’t master the words and phrases。 For a time I wanted to give it up。 Later， with the help of the teacher and my classmates， I listened to the teacher carefully in class， kept on reading English every day and spoke as much as possible。 Step by step I made great progress in English。

In a word， only when you develop interest in studying English can you learn it well。

young is so great and also the most cherrish moment in a life, as young men have

more energy and power to move forwards. Once we grow up more, we might lose

enthusiasm to propell our expectation. Nowadays, young men are looking for a job

to work. Work provides money to support our living and meaning of a life.

However, There are some young men who do not work, but the world is not proud of

them. Those who prefer not to work and would rather spend money from inherited

can be seen wandering on the street, speeding on the highway, or gathering as

gangsters. Many of them tend to become drog addicted after they got broke. They

expect good fortune surrounding forever. They don‘t know it is hard to sustain

money for a generation. Fortunately, our education system has influenced on the

majority of young people that we all recognive the importance of having a job.It

is believed that the more we work, and the more opportunitis and treasures will

arrive. Thus, The society will become harmony and peaceful.

This summer, I move to a new city with my parents, and I transfer to a new

school. I used to live in the countryside, so my new life is so different from

before. The school is a little far from my home, so I go to school by bus. After

school, I have many activities in school. Classmates are friendly to me. I learn

English now. Its so interesting that I like it very much. Besides, life in city

is different. There are many interesting places to go. At weekends, my parents

Day". But Today, Chinese visit their family graves to tend to any underbrush

that has grown. Weeds are pulled, and dirt swept away, and the family will set

altar, the offerings at the tomb usually consist of dry, bland food. One theory

is that since any number of ghosts rome around a grave area, the less appealing

food will be consumed by the ancestors, and not be plundered by strangers.

With the passing of time, this celebration of life became a day to the

honor past ancestors. Following folk religion, the Chinese believed that the

spirits of deceased ancestors looked after the family. Sacrifices of food and

spirit money could keep them happy, and the family would prosper through good

harvests and more children.

初中作文 少壮不努力老大徒伤悲

Almost everyone knows the famous Chinese saying：A young idler，an old beggar. Throughout history，we have seen many cases in which this saying has again and again proved to be true.

It goes without saying that the youth is the best time of life，during which ones mental and physical states are at their peaks. It takes relatively less time and pains to learn or accept new things in a world full of changes and rapid developments. In addition，one is less likely to be under great pressure from career，family and health problems when young. Therefore，a fresh mind plus enormous energy will ensure success in different aspects of life.

Of course，we all know：no pains，no gains. If we dont make every effort to make good use of the advantages youth brings us，it is impossible to achieve any goals. As students，we should now try our best to learn all the subjects well so that we can be well prepared for the challenges that we will face in the future.

初三英语学习的三大对策

尽早进入状态

初三是初中学习生活的关键年级，学习内容多，要求高，强度大。一年后（实际上约10个月）同学们就要参加中考，进入状态越早，就会越主动，效果就会越好。

初三的状态是指：树立明确的人生目标，拥有足够的学习动力，具有强烈的自信心；变“要我学”为“我要学”，时间安排合理，学习效率高；学习得法，不搞题海战术，既会学习，又会考试。

抓好三个环节

预习：初三学习忙，时间紧，但预习工作不可忘。课前要熟悉课文中生词的音和义，基本搞懂课文内容，尤其要记下难于理解的问题。带着这些问题，有的放矢地听课，听课的效率就会提高。

听课：课堂是获取知识和培养能力的主渠道，学习时间大多是在课堂中度过的。因此掌握科学的听课方法，提高听课效率，是提高课堂学习效率和学习成绩的关键所在。在课前预习的基础上，可以明确听课目标，掌握听课的主动性，从而提高学习效率。课堂上，通过听、说、读、写的训练，掌握词、句、段、篇等基本知识，培养听、说、读、写的基本能力。因此上课不仅要认真听，更要多说，多读，多写，多思。也要捕捉讲课重点，尽可能当堂消化。

复习：温故而知新，课后复习可以加深对课堂所学知识的消化和理解，并强化记忆，达到熟练掌握灵活运用。

复习要及时。艾宾浩斯遗忘曲线告诉我们，在学习开始的一段时间，不仅遗忘得快，而且遗忘的内容也多，因此趁热打铁，及时复习非常必要。对课文中的重点，难点、关键句可用有色笔注上记号，以便经常复习。
