关于元旦的高中英语作文【热门20篇】

亲爱的老师：

您好!

您是一位好老师，对学生十分负责，不像五年级时的英语王老师，动不动就说不给上课(还真不给上课)，您虽然动不动就发火，可是您还是爱我们的呀。

记得有一次，您上课的时候，可我们在下面又是说，又是笑，又是比划，可忙坏了。您开始想着我们会改正(这是我理解的)，但我们还不改正，反而变本加厉的说着我们感兴趣的话题。您生气了，把书往桌上狠狠地扔了一下，您对我们大喊：“停!”我们吓的打一了颤，然后赶紧装模作样的拿起书读，谁知我们一出声，就“驴头不对马嘴”。您又发火了，干脆坐下来和我们比赛——看谁“熬”过谁。我们一见您这阵势，我们也不读了，但是就怕您告诉数学老师，让他批我们。过了一会，要下课了，您气消了，又教我们读起了英语。

还有一次，班上同学——王莹在英语课上，肚子里“翻江倒海”，头上也渗出了豆大的汗珠，满脸通红。下课了，您还在“拖”课，走到王莹那，看见她的样子。于是手拉着王莹的手，一手摸着她的头，亲切的问她的病情，并安慰她。您拉着她下楼，她烧的太厉害，四肢抽筋，您便把她背了下去。

老师，您是多么爱我的呀，我们将永远感谢您!

祝您：

永远年轻，永远美丽!

您的学生

今天是20--年的最后一天，为迎接20--年元旦，我们二年级七班举办了联欢会。联欢会举办地就是我们的教室，不过，这可不是上课时的那个乱糟糟的教室，今天的教室和往常的不一样，因为，我们提前把教室装扮了一下，挂了各种颜色的彩带，看起来非常漂亮，充满着节日的气息。

联欢会在中午一点准时开幕，李娜老师是联欢会的主持人，在-的主持下，小朋友们不仅表演了文艺节目，还吃到了美味的棉花糖和面包。联欢会的节目很丰富，但是留给我印象最深的是高一峻和伏厚宇唱的《怒放的生命》，这是我最喜欢的一首汪峰演唱的歌曲，我本人也会唱。还有董乙辛的相声也让我笑的肚皮疼，留下了很深的印象，回家后我还给妈妈学了董乙辛的表演。

开心的时光总是很短暂，今天下午的时间一眨眼就过去了，我好想留住这美好瞬间。好了，在20__年最后的一天，我还想许几个愿望，第一个愿望是希望雾霾天气不再出现，因为，这种天气污染了环境，伤害了我们的身体，影响了我们的健康;第二个愿望是希望在我生日的时候能收到我最喜欢的礼物;第三个愿望是希望在下个学期我的学习能有所进步;最后一个愿望我希望我的爷爷、奶奶、爸爸、妈妈和我的老师和同学们，在新的一年里身体健康，万事如意!

高考英语作文需要将有自己的想法，并且掌握好写作的方法，这样英语才能得到高分。

1、审题：审题是做到切题的第一步。所谓审题就是要看清题意，确定文章的中心思想、主题，并围绕中心思想组织材料。

2、进行构思，列出简单的提纲，打造文章之骨架：审好题、立好意后，就要写提纲，打造文章的骨架。文章布局要做好几件事：安排好层次段落，铺设好过渡，处理好开头和结尾。

3、扩展成文：根据字数多少扩展成篇。扩展的内容一定要紧扣主题，千万不要写那些与主题不相关的内容。展开的方式包括：顺序法、举例法、比较法、对比法、说明法、因果法、推导法、归纳法和下定义等。可以根据需要任选一种或几种方式。

在这一步骤中还需注意三方面问题：

1)确保提纲中段落结构的思路与各段主题句的一致性。只有这样，才能保证所写段落不偏题、不跑题。

2)要综合考虑各个段落的内容安排，避免段落内容的交叉。

3)用好连接词，注意段落间、句子间的连贯性。要做到所写文章层次分明，思路清晰，文字连贯，就需要在句与句之间、段与段之间架起一座座桥梁，而连接词起的正是桥梁作用。

在扩展的过程中也有些窍门，以下几点可供参考：

1)在整篇文章中，避免只是用一两个句式或重复用同一词语。英语中存在着极为丰富的同义词，准确地使用同义词可以给读者清新的感觉。同时要灵活运用各种句式，如倒装句、强调句、省略句、主从复合句、对比句、分词短语、介词短语等，从而增加文章的可读性。

2)使用不同长度的句子。如果一个意思用一句话写不清楚的话，通过分句和合句或用两句、三句来表达，增强句子的连贯性和表现力。

3)改变句子的开头方式，不要总是以主、谓、宾、状的次序。可以把状语至于句首，或用分词等。

4)学会使用过渡词。

(1) 递进furthermore，moreover，besides，in addition，then，etc

(2) 转折however，but，nevertheless，afterwards，etc

(3) 总结finally，at last，in brief，to conclude，etc

(4) 强调really，indeed，certainly，surely，above a11，etc

(5) 对比in the same way，just as，on the other hand，etc

5)确定文章用第几人称写，基本时态是什么。使用人称时人物不能张冠李戴或指代不明。

时态要尽量保持一致。

4、检查修改：要检查复核，不要写完了事。

要留时间通读全文，修改可能出现的错误。检查上下文是否连贯，句子衔接是否自然流畅。检验的标准主要是句子是否通畅，该用连词的地方用了没有，所用的连词是否合适，是否有语法错误，主谓是否一致，动词的时态、语态、语气的使用是否正确，词组的搭配是否合乎习惯，是否有大小写、拼写、标点错误等，还有就是注意卷面整洁。

可归纳为：中心突出，主题明确;层次清楚，条理清晰; 表达力强，传情达意;语句通顺，句型多变;过渡自然，衔接紧凑;标点正确，大小无误;字迹清楚，卷面整洁。

一眨眼，就到了我们学生涯的最后一个元旦节了，老师说我们应该让这个元旦更加多姿多彩一点。我们六年级的同学就打算为元旦搞一个诗朗诵，去赞颂我们的祖国。在全年级学生中选二十名，我被光荣的入选了，接下来的几天，我们天天排练，为旦节做准备。

终于到了元旦节了，我兴冲冲的穿上校服，带好红领巾，向学校走去。街上的行人也多了，脸上微笑着，好像那些人也为元旦节而特别高兴。我到了学校，同学们正七嘴八舌的议论着哪个年级表演些什么节目，推测着哪个年级表演得最好。过一会儿，表演就开了，我们都特别兴奋。刘校长和杨书记走上台，为每个班评出的“三好学生”和“优秀少先员”“成长少年”发了奖状。然后宣布庆祝会开始，首先是别的年级表演，有的年级的同学表演唱歌，有的跳舞，有的表演小品，还有的同学表演乐器……同学们都表演的有趣又长知识的。比如那小品吧，这个小品讲的是从前有一只叫“年”的怪物，每年1月1日便出来危害百姓，吃别人的东西，抢别人的儿女，狼狈的人们找到月下老人，求老人告诉他们怎么灭“年”。月下老人便告诉他们说：““年”最怕红色和响声了”。于是人们便挂起了红红的灯笼，放起了烟花，用响声和灯笼赶走了“年”。从此以后每逢1月1日人们就要挂灯笼、放烟花。后来形成了一个传统，每年的1月1日就叫年，要欢庆几天，这几天张灯结彩，是人们觉得赶走了“年”的好日子。

一片片掌声送走了一个个节目，又迎来了最后一个节目，也就是我们六年级准备的诗朗诵，我们走上台，望着台下千千万万名学生，激动万分，“群山起舞，大海扬波，春风度玉门，高……”跟随着领读的节奏，我小声地朗诵起来，但是我突然发现我们班上的一名朗诵很好却很胆小的同学也放开了声音，我想：他能做到的我也能做到。慢慢地，我放大了声音，这次表演成功了，在热烈的掌声中圆满地完成了庆元旦活动。我真心的祝愿母校办得更好，为祖国出多的高材生，祝愿同学们考上好的中学，学习进步。

When asked about their opinion of career and family, people always respond differently. Some people deem it more important to pursue their career, while there are always other people who argue that family should be the number one in one’s life.

It goes without any question that career plays a key role in our life. In the very first place, career can give us an aim to live on. Without career, much of our living time will be certainly wasted. What’s more, career can provide us with a means to live on. Most of the people earn their income from a job. On the other hand, family is also an indispensable part of life, as many people will admit. Family is always regarded as a place where we can escape from troubles in life. In addition, we can obtain a sense of belonging to from family. Without it, anyone will feel lonely and desperate.

In my opinion, career and family are not in opposition to each other. Rather, they can enhance each other so that one’s life can become better and better. Therefore, it’s not a choice between right and wrong, but one between ideal and practical.

在谈到自己的事业和家庭的意见要求，人总是有不同的反应。有些人认为这更重要的是追求自己的事业，而总有那么谁认为家庭应该是一个人的生活的人数1人。

毫无疑问，任何事业在我们生活中起着关键作用。在第一个地方，可以给我们一个职业生涯的目标是生活。没有职业生涯中，大部分时间我们的生活一定会被浪费。更重要的是，职业生涯可以提供一种手段，对我们的生活。大多数人从工作中赚取的收入。另一方面，家庭也是生活中不可缺少的一部分，因为很多人会承认。家庭一直被认为是一个地方，我们可以摆脱生活中的麻烦。此外，我们可以得到一个属于家庭的感觉。没有它，人会感到孤独和绝望。

在我看来，职业和家庭是不反对对方。相反，它们可以加强彼此，使自己的生活能够越来越好。因此，它不是对与错之间的选择，但理想和现实之间的一个。

In the east of China,there is a small city---Haimen.I was born

there.Today,I am telling you about my hometown.

Haimen is not far from Shanghai.Its at the mouth of the Changjiang

River.Haimen is a modern city.There are lots of high buildings in it.Most of us

live in flats.We like to live in flats because we can be close to our friends.In

the center of Haimen,there are many shops.You can buy some nice things

here.Things in most shops arent expensive.You can pay a little money and they

are yours.

My hometown is a beautiful city.On each of the roads,there are some big

trees and nice flowers.The roads are also very clean.They make people happy and

comfortable.The seasons here are very nice.I like autumn best.Its neither hot

nor cold.A poem says “Flyer of summer come to my window to sing,then fly

away.And yellow leaves of autumn,which have no songs,just fall there with a

sign.” Its very cool.

I love Haimen.Its a nice place to live.Welcome to my hometown.

My new years resolution is very very brife.

New Years Day is one of important days for many people in the word during the year.Most people spend the New YearsDay in hotels.January 1st is considered as the New Years Day.most companies,shops,school,and government offices are closed during that time.

People prepare for New Years Dayfrom late December.Firt,people spend a few days to clean their houses completely.Some families then put up some new painting from November to be sent in January.

The New Years meal is also prepared from the end of December.During the New Years Day,people usually do not cook and relax at home. On New Years Eve,it is common to have a bag dinner with family members or friends at home or in hotels and hear bells which informs us of the coming New Year.On New Years Day,people fiest greet each other.

Some people wear new coats and visit temples to pray for happiness and health theoughout the New Year.Children are busy with getting the gifts from their parents and relatives.

When holiday comes, thousands of people pour into the tourist sites, they want to relax themselves and enjoy the beautiful scenery. But Chinese people have a bad habit, they like to leave some notes on the site, proving them have been here before.

Such a behavior has been criticized by the public, because the leaving note will damage the preservation of the tourist site.

Most of the tourist sites are part of our country’s historical relics, these sites are priceless, it is everyone’s duty to protect the sites.

When we go to travel, we should behave ourselves. First, we need to have the idea that no rubbish being leaved behind when we leave the site. We should take away what we bring, keep the environment clean. Second, no any notes being written in the sites. Though in the old days, Chinese workers like to leave their names on the sites, but now it is a new world, we need to behave ourselves.

当节假日到来的时候，成千上百的人聚集在旅游景点，他们想要放松，享受美丽的风景。但是中国人有一个坏习惯，他们喜欢在景点留下一些记号，证明曾经在此旅游。这样的行为遭到了大众的批评，因为留下的记号会破坏景点的保存。

大部分景点是国内的历史文物，是无价的，保护文物是每一个人的责任。

当文明旅游时候，应该要规范自己的行为。第一，文明需要有这样的观念，当我们离开景点时，不能留下垃圾，拿走带来的一切。第二，不在景点留下记号。虽然在古代，中国的文人喜欢留下他们的名字，但是现在是新时代，我们要规范自己的行为。

As it is known to us, Ping An was chosen to perform on the CCTV Spring

Festival Gala with his melodious and strong voice. Also, he had a great

achievement on this dream stage. Although he hadnt gain the popularity among

the audience at the beginning, he always kept his dream in mind and never gave

it up. It is his success that brings home to me the power of dream.

A life without a dream is a life without a sun. Therefore, in no

circumstances can we give up our dream. Unquestionably, dreams are of great

importance. For one thing, a person having a dream will be considered to be more

responsible and unswerving. For another, in pursuit of our dream, there is a

chance that good habits and positive attitudes can be formed, contributing to

our success.

As for our students, what we should do is to choose a healthy seed and

plant it on fertilized soil. Firstly, knowledge is the foundation of dream

realization, so we should spend much time in study to enrich ourselves.

Secondly, it also takes perseverance and confidence if we want to realize our

dreams. Last but not least, we should not be craven and timorous but brave when

we meeting obstacles.

Nowadays, there are more and more students becoming short-sighted. Some students get short-sightedness when they are little. There are fifteen students wearing glasses in my class. Being short-sighted is common among students, even in primary school. That is too serious. Therefore, we should protect our eyes carefully. When we are reading and writing, we should keep a standard posture. Besides, we should not watch TV or play computer for too long. They are bad for our eyes. And, we should do eyes exercises regularly. A good rest is also important to our eyes. In all, eyes are the windows of our mind. We should keep it healthy.

陈茉是我的同桌，她是老师和同学眼里的好学生。她每天都是第一个到教室的。

通常，她会花半个小时学习英语。英语需要花比较多的时间去记单词和读课文。陈茉不仅专注于自己的学习，也积极帮助其他有需要的同学。

同学们喜欢找她帮忙，因为她总是那么乐于助人。

但是，在我眼里，她不仅是我的同桌，更是我的朋友。课后，我们经常相互交流，讨论学习问题或是分享彼此的生活。她很喜欢打羽毛球，我也一样。我们常常会在周五下课后打羽毛球，这不仅能使我们得到放松，也有益于我们的身体健康。能有一个拥有相同兴趣爱好的同桌真是太好了。

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.

一、纵观近年各地中考英语写作题，题材一般是写人、写事、写物、写景、日记、书信、通知、便条等文体。一般来说，不同的写作题材，它的人物，时间，写作的重点也是不尽相同的。下面结合一些常见的题型介绍一下写作的注意事项以及写作技巧。

1、以图表提供情景的作文要以“读”为主，首先要读懂图表中的数据、时间、编码、序号以及相互间的变化关系，对所给的信息加以分析、推断、筛选、概括、去粗取精；在写作时目的要明确，要注意内容的准确性和严肃性，尤其是图表中的数据、时间等不得有误。

2、以图画提供情景的作文应以“看”为主，通过细心观察图中的人物、景物、文字、环境、数字等，弄清写作的意图，通过分析思考把握逻辑联系，找出主题并借助所给的文字，把图中的信息转化成文章，但要注意，文章不能停留在图画的浅表，而要表达出提供情景的意图和内涵。

3、以提纲提供情景的作文。这种形式本身的要点已经很明确，重点也很突出，只要把各个提纲加以发挥，注意遣词造句的灵活性和语法规则的正确性，就不会造成审题不清而偏离主题，但要注意，文章必须覆盖所提供的各个提纲的要点。

4、以书信格式提供情景的作文。首先要了解书信的格式，英文书信格式与中文有所不同，(1)、一般在信纸的右上角写上写信人的地址和日期，地址应按从小到大的顺序排列；(2)、左边顶格写上收信人的姓名；(3)、正文部分；(4)、祝愿的话；(5)、写信人签名。信的内容一定要按所给的要求写，不要漏写。

二、各地的评分标准略有差异，但是都包括以下几个方面：整体印象、语言表达、词数规定等几方面内容。我们在写作中要尽量避免扣分，争取有加分点。当然用英文写作不同于用母语那样得心应手，常常会受到生词、语法、惯用法的限制，只要同学们平时注意两种语言的异同性，抓住写作要点，也可妙笔生花。

1、为了保证文章层次分明、条理清楚，要把时间固定下来，如：记叙一件事要用过去时；写经常发生的事或对人物的描写，要用一般现在时。整个文章中的人称要一致，首尾呼应，不要随意改动，以免造成误解。

2、不要为了追求“一鸣惊人”而去找一些生冷的词汇，对这些一知半解的词你不会用，不知道如何搭配，结果可能适得其反，使文章显的生硬、不协调，甚至错误百出，所以要使用有把握的词，避免不必要的失分。比如说发生了一起意外事件，我们通常用“have an accident”来表示，不要错误的使用“have an incident”。

3、注意不同语言的表达习惯，也是写好英语作文的重要环节，如“我的理想是做一名歌手”，很多同学写成“My ambition is to do/make a singer，”“to do”表示“做”或者“干”，“to make”表示“制作”，而“做一名歌手”则表示“成为一名歌手”应该用“be/become a singer”；又如“看书、看报”应用“read a book/newspaper”，而不是“see a book/newspaper”。因此，平时应该注意不同语言的表达习惯，切忌望文生义或一味生搬硬套。

4、有些同学因怕出错而只写短句或简单句，写出的文章过于幼稚、空洞乏味。要使文章有血有肉就要把平时学的知识用进去，如：定语从句、宾语从句、非谓语动词和比较等句型，关键时用上一、二个，就能使文章不同凡响，更有文采，特别是对关联词的使用，如“so that”、“not…but”“not only。。。but also”等，会使你的文章逻辑结构紧密、层次鲜明、条理清楚，更能显示出你的英文功底，但要做到这些并非一日之功，要靠平时的不断训练和积累。

5、最简单的增分点就是认真的书写。工整漂亮的书写会给评卷老师留下美好的第一印象，在扣分时自然会“手下留情”，而且很多地区都在写作上有1分的书写分。只要平时多下点功夫，得到这一分并不难。

三、最后将中考写作的基本步骤和技巧归纳为以下几个环节：

1、细心审题细读题目中每一项提示或观察所给的每一幅画，明确文章的中心思想，弄清题意，确定写作体裁，掌握所要表达的要点做到心中有数，避免随心所欲，文不对题。

2、理顺要点在所给提示或图上标出要点，然后按事件先后的顺序或各要点之间的内在联系排序，分出层次。如果是看图作文，则要按图构思，这样做既可避免要点遗漏，又可使表达内容条理清楚。

3、构成框架将理顺的要点或每幅图画的含义加以连贯，构成写作的整体框架，进一步定人称、定时态语态、定顺序、定段落、定开头结尾。基本框架构成后，写作就有了把握。4、组织句子用自己最熟悉的短语或句型将理顺的要点逐句表达出来，多用简单句，用有把握的复合句。要扬长避短，避难就易。若遇到表达障碍，可换一种说法，将一句变成两、三句，只求达意。

5、串句成篇将写好的句子连贯地组织起来，注意上下句的逻辑关系，适当采用递进、让步、转折、因果等关联词语，使短文浑然一体，层次分明，过渡自然。6、检查修改文章草成后，默读1～2遍，检查修改，尤其要注意人称、大小写、拼写、习惯用语、格式有无错误，要点有无遗漏，文句有无语病，词数是否恰当，行文是否连贯。
