高二英语作文大全(20篇)

In Chinese culture, it is every childs duty to return their parents as

they grow up. The children know their duty and they work hard to give parents a

better life. As a child, I was grateful to my parents as they gave me all their

love, so I made up my mind that I must earn a lot of money and then I could pay

back my parents money. But as I grew up, I realized that money was not that

only way I could return my parents. Whats more, my parents dont care about my

money, and they just want to spend more time with me. When I grow up, I will

move out and probably live far away from them. At that time, if I come home

often, they will be happy. I think every parent just want care from their

children.

In the courtyard of my hometown, there is an old phoenix tree that has been

with the town for decades.

Indus trees are not as slim as maple trees, nor are they evergreen like

pine trees. It is just a tall and thick tree with a plain appearance, but it

gives a sufficient sense of security. Relying on it, you dont have to worry

that it will crumble like a skinny maple, and you dont have to worry that it

will "pin to pin" to you like a pine tree. Its sturdy body is always waiting for

your support; its smooth skin wont hurt you in the slightest.

Sycamore tree, just like mother.

In the hot summer, my pleasure is to enjoy the shade under the tall plane

tree. Its lush leaves will divide the dazzling sunlight into small pieces and

sprinkle it down, which is also warm on the body. Leaning on the trunk and

looking up, the plane tree is really featureless, and its ordinary appearance is

incomparable with those beautiful scenery elsewhere. However, in my eyes, only

it is the most beautiful. Its beauty is not in appearance, but beauty from the

inside out. Only when you experience it and experience it with your heart will

you discover it.

When I was a child, because the adults in the family were busy with work,

no one could play with my brother and me. So I got into the habit of liking

being alone. When the adults were busy going out, I led my brother to sit under

the plane tree and waited for the adults to return. Laifu would sometimes lie

quietly beside us, waiting for us. Every summer, such a view is the most

beautiful.

Time passed quickly and we all grew up. The sycamore tree is also getting

older. When I went to see it again, nine years had passed in a trance with the

wind. Its branches were cut off a lot because it blocked the newly built small

building, and it seemed to have grown taller. The leaves were not as green as

before, and some of them were yellowed, which seemed to have a different kind of

beauty. Just like my mother, it is getting old day by day.

I stood on the roof, the furthest away from it, and stroked its smooth

body. I dont know, maybe it does. This time Im not coming back just to see it,

this may be the last time we see each other. what is the reason? It was probably

because the house was going to be renovated, and the tree blocked it. In fact, I

still have a lot of words in my heart that I want to tell it, and I watched it

quietly, and thousands of words came to my mind, but in the end, it came to my

lips and became silent. I looked at it, just like that quietly, at this moment,

it was the scene in my eyes. Is it beautiful? No. But it will always be etched

in my heart.

Perhaps, it is not a tree. Instead, its a playmate of mine. Bring me joy,

support, help, warmth.

The autumn wind blows, and a yellowed leaf dances in the wind. It still

seems to be nostalgic, until the last moment, it will always stand here,

guarding us. Protect us with everything that is kinder than a pine tree and

taller than a maple tree.

Goodbye, sycamore tree.

篇一：Work and Happiness

Happiness is dependent upon work. Sometimes we complain that we have too much work, but we fail to realize that it’s our work that keep us moving on and helps us to become a better man. Last summer I visited my friends in a small village. It was obvious that working has become an indispensable part of their daily lives. They all went to the field to plant the crops. The sun was shinning above them and they looked quite happiness about their work. On their face there were such smiles as I had never seen before.

Work provide us with happiness. Work is more than a necessity for human beings. If we have no work to do, we will waste our precious time. That’s pity. We will lose everything in the end. Work helps us to realize the importance of life, then we will appreciate it more. Everybody who live in this society could not live without working. If we spend every day idly, we will find life is boring.

幸福建立在工作之上。有时候我们抱怨我们有太多的工作要做，却忽略了工作可以让人不断进步，从而成为一个更好的人。上个暑假我去一个小村庄拜访了我的朋友。显而易见，工作已经成为了他们不可缺的一部分。他们全都到地里面种庄稼。太阳当空照，他们看起来对自己的工作非常是满意。对人类来说，工作不仅仅是种必需品。如果我们没有工作，那么，时间就会白白浪费掉。真真是可惜。最后，我们会失去所有的东西。工作帮助人们意识到生活的重要性，让我们更加珍惜。每个生活在社会中的人都必须工作，免得就不能生存下去。如果每天都无所事事，那么，我们会发现生活非常无趣。

篇二：football 足球

Football is the most popular ball in the world. More and more people like watching football matches. They can’t sleep or eat when their teams are playing.They shout for their players. I think many Chinese football player have done better match after match since the Professional Football league of China was set up. But we still have a long way to go to Asia and to the world. We should learn from foreign teams. Foreign players and coaches must be invited. Dalian Wanda, Shanghai Shenhua and Guangd0ng Apollo are among the best.

足球是世界上最流行的球类运动。现在越来越多韵人喜欢看足球比赛，当他们的球队参加比赛的时候，他们可以废寝忘食地为他们的队员加油。我认为自从中国足协建立以来，许多中国足球的比赛踢得一场比一场好了。但是我们的足球要冲出亚洲、奔向世界还有非常长的路要走。我们应该向国外的球队学习，邀请一些外国的运动员和教练到我们中间来。大连万达、上海申花、广东太阳神都是最出色的球队。

篇三：True Beauty

Everyone is attracted by beauty and beauty is powerful. But what is true beauty? Perhaps you can get the answer from the following story.

This morning I went to the market to buy some vegetables with my parents. On the way we all highly praised a young man in western-style clothes and leather shoes who was riding by. But he rode so fast that he knocked an old lady down carelessly.Instead of stopping, he pretended not to see this and rode away quickly. We were all very angry with the young man. To our happiness, a girl in plain dress ran forward at once, helped the lady up and took her home. We all praised the girl.

From this we know we cannot judge a person by his appearance. A person who is dressed beautifully may not have a beautiful soul. Only a person who has a beautiful soul is really beautiful

每个人都会被美所吸引,荚有强大的力量。但什么是真正的美呢?或许你可以从下面的故事得到答案。

今天早上我去市场买些蔬菜和我的父母。在路上我们都高度赞扬一个年轻人他骑在西式的衣服和皮鞋。但是他骑得太快了,不小心把一位老太太撞倒。他没有阻止,而是假装没有看到飞快地骑走了。我们都非常生气的年轻人。我们的幸福,一个女孩穿着朴素立刻跑过来,帮助这位女士,带她回家。我们都赞扬了女孩。

从这我们知道我们不能通过外表来判断一个人。一个人可以没有美丽的心灵是打扮得漂漂亮亮。”只有一个人有一个美丽的灵魂真漂亮

Parents are the people who care about us the most. But for a lot children,

they think it is necessary for parents to give them everything. As they grow up,

they start to realize their responsibility and feel grateful to their parents. I

was very naughty before. One day, I hanged out to play with my friends very

late, but I havent told my parents, because I thought they would not care. But

when I went home, I found my parents and uncle were sitting together, and they

looked very upset. When my parents saw me, they were angry to ask me why I went

home so late. I felt unhappy and shouted at them. Then my uncle told me that my

parents worried about me so much, and they had searched me for the whole street.

At this moment, I felt so touched, and felt their love.

There are various kinds of jobs in the world, such as writing, nursing, teaching and engineering. But different people choose different jobs as their ideal careers. This is because everyone has his own interest.

As for me, I have made up my mind to be a teacher. I choose to do so mainly for three reasons. First, I want to teach because I like the pace of academic calendar. Two long vacations offer me an opportunity for reflection, research and writing. Secondly, I want to teach because I like the freedom to make my own mistakes, to learn my own lesson, to stimulate myself and my students. And I can have the opportunity to keep on learning. Finally, I want to teach because, being around the students who are beginning to grow and change in front of me, I will grow and change with them too.

But teaching is no easy job at all. I must study cleverly to obtain more knowledge. And, at the same time, I will make every effort to purify my soul so that I can become an architect of mans soul.

Its about one and a half month away from the Chinese New Year, It is a

festival celebrated by the Chinese people at the beginning of the lunar calendar

year.

As of the Chinese traditional customs, our parents and grandparents will

sweep every corner of the house and clean the windows until they gleam, and

washing clothes, buying foods and goods for the new years future use and

presents.

Children will be the most benefited group during this feast period. One

month before that, they are expecting the new clothes, delicious foods. The

firecrackers and the years allowance for their increased ages.

In recent years, with the rising of the standard of life, Chinese tend to

make various holiday plans to spend a different and meaningful new year. Such as

traveling abroad, or be absorbed in their hobbies, and even work.

Why today we try to spend our Chinese new year in such a different way? I

think thats because this is a era of free life and personality high-ranking.

Though there are still something traditional, our young generation is attempting

to make something new and suitable for ourselves. And we would like to take

something really worth to be cherished in our memorable treasures. Thats

amazing and wonderful!

Ill always keep in mind that the Chinese new year is a great feast

inherited from our ancestors, but if necessary, I would like to enjoy it by some

ways personal.

Nowadays, most companies are faced with a common problem that feeling hard to find permanent employees. Many of their employees will leave the company after a period of time. In my opinion, this phenomenon is a serious problem needs to be solved. But, we need to find out the causing reasons at first.

如今，大多数公司都面临着这样常见的一个问题，很难找到长期员工。很多员工待了一段时间后都会离开公司。在我看来，这是一个需要解决的严重问题。但是，我们首先需要找出其原因。

First of all, employees do not get what they want. For most employees, what they want are good salary and the chance to develop. For one thing, some companies can not offer enough treatment for their employees to match their pay on work. If they are not satisfied, they will leave one day for sure. For another, if employees can find another job, which has more opportunities for advancement, they will make their choice. After all, man struggles upwards; water flows downwards.

首先，员工没有得到他们想要的。对于大多数员工来说，他们需要的是高薪和发展的机会。一方面，一些公司无法满足员工在工作上的付出所应得的报酬。如果员工不满意，他们肯定有一天是会离开的。另一方面，如果员工可以找到另一份有更多发展机会的工作，他们也会做出自己的选择的。毕竟，人往高处走水往低处流。

[My View on Permanent Employee高二英语作文

Knowledge can be acquired from many sources. These include books, teachers and practical experience, and each has its own advantages. The knowledge we gain from books and formal education enables us to learn about things that we have no opportunity to experience in daily life. We can study all the places in the world and learn from people we will never meet in our lifetime, just by reading about them in books. We can also develop our analytical skills and learn how to view and interpret the world around us in different ways. Furthermore, we can learn from the past by reading books. In this way, we won’t repeat the mistakes of others and can build on their achievements.

获得知识的来源有很多。这些包括书籍，教师和实践经验，每个人都有自己的优点。知识从书本上及正规教育使我们知道在日常生活中没有机会经历的事情。我们可以研究世界各地的人学习我们不会在我们的有生之年遇见，只在书上读到的人。我们也可以培养分析的技巧，并学习如何看待和理解我们周围的世界以不同的方式。此外，我们可以从过去中学习，通过阅读书籍。这样，我们就不会再重复别人的错误，并且能够以他人的成就。

Practical experience, on the other hand, can give us more useful knowledge. It is said that one learns best by doing, and I believe that this is true, whether one is successful or not. In fact, I think making mistakes is the best way to learn. Moreover, if one wants to make new advances, it is necessary to act. Innovations do not come about through reading but through experimentation. Finally, one can apply the skills and insights gained through the study of books to practical experience, making an already meaningful experience more meaningful. However, unless it is applied to real experiences, book knowledge remains theoretical and, in the end, is useless. That is why I believe that knowledge gained from practical experience is more important than that acquired from books.

实践经验，另一方面，可以给我们更多有用的知识。这是说从做中学的效果最好，我相信这是真的，无论一个人成功与否。事实上，我认为犯错是最好的学习方式。此外，如果想要有新的进展，这是必要的行动。创新不能只靠阅读是实验。最后，我们可以将所获得的技巧和见解通过书籍来实践经验的研究，使得原本有意义的经验变得更有意义。然而，除非它应用于实际经验，书本知识是理论和，最后，是无用的。那就是为什么我会认为从实际经验中获得的知识比从书本中学到的更重要。

I found eating the buffet should be a happy thing for me, but now it seemed to be a kind of torture, I always told myself to eat more than I could bear, my stomach hurt.

As the economy is developing so rapidly, people’s attitude towards life is changing at the same time. Credit cards are becoming more and more popular. but what advantages and disadvantages do they have?

Firstly, it is quite convenient ant safe for us to use a credit card. Cash-stolen does not exist in this way. People now take a card instead of a heavy purse wherever they go. Secondly, credit cards represent great honour. People using credit cards shows his special identity and draw others attention.

On the other hand, credit cards are not always that good. Credit cards can lead to overspending somehow. People pay more than they have and then get busy paying off. Furthermore the credit card cheating happens more often.

In my opinion, credit cards do good in our life. But we should use them carefully. Only when used credit cards properly can make contribution to a more convenient and safer life.

In 2014, a show called Where Are We Going, Dad was popular around China, in the show, five famous stars and dads with their children went to the countryside to experience the life.

This is the first time for the audience can look at the celebrities’ children, the kids are so lovely that all the audiences love them. Now a new show which is similar to the mentioned show becomes a new hot topic, but this time, half audience love the stars’ kids, the ones who don’t like them think that the kids are not as lovely as the ones before, even look ugly. So the audience speaks bad words in the Weibo, showing their dislike. As an outsider, I think it is so cruel to the kids, they are so young and innocent, they don’t know about the world, why should they deserve those vicious words.

Imagine if they are your kids, what will you do? People should be mercy to the kids.

在2014年，一个叫《爸爸去哪儿》的节目火爆全中国，在节目中，五个著名的星爸和他们的孩子下乡体验生活。

这是观众第一次有机会观看名人的孩子，这些孩子都很可爱，所有的观众都喜欢他们。现在一个新的类似的节目成为了焦点，但是这一次，只有一半的观众喜欢明星的孩子，不喜欢的人觉得有些孩子不像之前的可爱，长得不好看。因此观众在微博上对这些孩子留下恶言，以此来表示他们的不喜欢。作为一名局外人，我觉得这对孩子来说很残酷，他们是那么的年轻和天真，对世界都了解不深，为什么他们要承受这样恶毒的话。

想象一下，如果这是你的孩子，你会怎么做呢?人们应该对孩子仁慈点。

Look at the sky the colorful fireworks, I smiled happily. The happiest time of the New Year is of course the twelve o clock fireworks burning fireworks on New Years eve.

当新年的钟声敲响的时候，我便拉着爸爸在小区的院子里放鞭炮燃礼花。鞭炮声音最大的是雷王，我小心翼翼的点燃雷王的引线，飞速地跑开，轻轻捂上耳朵，目不转睛的盯着雷王，嘴里喊着“放炮了!放炮了!”只听“咚”的一声，威力太大了，这声音合着其它鞭炮声，此起彼伏，真是炮声如雷啊!我像打了兴奋剂的猴子一样，高兴地跳了起来。

Christmas is the most important festival in the western world. It falls on

December 25th. When my mother and I stayed in America, we were invited by one of

my mothers friends to have Christmas with an American family. We bought some

presents for our American friends on our way to their house.They had prepared

different kinds of gifts for their family and guests when we got to their house,

such as Christmas candles, cakes, cards, little toys, biscuits and so on. A

Christmas tree was placed in the comer of the brilliant hall. How beautiful it

was! We were impressed by these. We had a big meal. After dinner, they told us

some interesting stories about Christmas. We learned that Christmas had

something to do with God. We went to bed at midnight. Though we knew the Santa

Claus was not true, we were still waiting for the Santa Claus with white beard

to bring us presents.And we received many beautiful presents the next

morning.This Christmas was really unforgettable. Not only did I have a good

time, but also I knew something about foreign culture.

I always dream about returning to the past. As many people say,Childhoodis the happiest and easiest time in one’s life.

我一直梦想着回到过去。许多人说，童年在我们的生命中是最快乐的，也是过的最快的。

Children show you their true emotions. They know what is compassion and what is tolerance better than adults. In their world, all real thoughts are presented. They may easily have different opinions with others, but they never understand what is animosity. They enjoy making friends but they never think about making social communication net. Every child talks from the bottom of his heart without evil plans hidden and never intrigues against each other. Only in children’s way can adults make our life simple, more real and more enjoyable.

孩子们向你展示自己真实的情感。他们知道什么是同情，什么是宽容。在他们的世界里，所有想法都是单纯真实的。他们可以很容易地与其他人有不同看法，但他们从来没有明白什么是仇恨。他们喜欢结交朋友，但他们从来不考虑用社交网络。每个孩子都发自内心地和其他人交流，没有邪恶计划和隐藏的阴谋。只有用童年时期的方式才能让成年人们的生活更简单，更真实、更愉快。

I wish everyone’s heart would keep as innocent and lovely as they ever did in their childhood. Then, the walls between our hearts can be broken down and the world would be a better place to live in.

我希望每个人的心都会保持他们曾经拥有的童年时期的天真可爱。然后，横在人们心中的心墙会坍塌，世界将是一个更好的住所。

the family had just moved to rhode island, and the young woman was feeling a little melancholy on that sunday in may. after all, it was mothers day -- and 800 miles separated her from her parents in ohio.

一家人刚移居罗德岛。5月的那个星期天， 年轻女人感到有点儿忧伤。毕竟， 这一天是母亲节─而她却与俄亥俄州的父母亲遥距800英里。

she had called her mother that morning to wish her a happy mothers day, and her mother had mentioned how colorful the yard was now that spring had arrived. as they talked, the younger woman could almost smell the tantalizing aroma of purple lilacs hanging on the big bush outside her parentsback door.

她那天早上给母亲打去电话， 祝母亲节日愉快。随后， 她的母亲向她提起， 因为春天已经来临， 所以院子里的色彩是多么绚丽。在她们通话的当儿， 年轻女人几乎可以闻到悬垂在父母亲后门外大灌木丛上的紫丁香醉人的芬芳。

later, when she mentioned to her husband how she missed those lilacs, he popped up from his chair. i know where we can find you all you want, he said. get the kids and cmon.

so off they went, driving the country roads of northern rhode island on the kind of day only mid-may can produce：sparkling sunshine, unclouded azure skies and vibrant newness of the green growing all around. they went past small villages and burgeoning housing developments, past abandoned apple orchards, back to where trees and brush have devoured old homesteads.

后来， 她向丈夫说起她是如何怀念那些紫丁香时， 他突然从椅子上跃起。我知道在哪儿能找到你想要的东西， 他说， 带上孩子， 走吧。

于是， 他们就出发了， 驱车行驶在罗德岛北部的乡村小路上， 那种天气只有5月中旬才会有：闪亮的阳光、蔚蓝色的晴空以及生机勃勃、随处可见的绿意。他们穿过一座座小村庄和一座座拔地而起的房屋， 穿过废弃的苹果园， 来到了树林和嗄敬匝谟车睦吓

where they stopped, dense thickets of cedars and ju nipers and birch crowded the roadway on both sides. there wasnt a lilac bush in sight.

come with me , the man said. over that hill is an old cellar hole, from somebodys farm of years ago, and there are lilacs all round it. the man who owns this land said i could poke around here anytime. im sure he wont mind if we pick a few lilacs.

他们停下车。车道两边长满了茂盛的雪松、杜松和白桦树。眼前没有一棵紫丁香。

随我来， 那个男人说， 翻过那座小山， 有个老地窖， 几年前是一个人的农场， 四周长满了紫丁香。这块地的主人说我可以随时到这儿来闲逛。我相信， 要是我们采几束紫丁香， 他不会介意。

before they got halfway up the hill, the fragrance of the lilacs drifted down to them, and the kids started running. soon, the mother began running, too, until she reached the top. there, far from view of passing motorists and hidden from encroaching civilization, were the towering lilacs bushes, so laden with the huge, cone-shaped flower clusters that they almost bent double. with a smile, the young woman rushed up to the nearest bush and buried her face in the flowers, drinking in the fragrance and the memories it recalled.

还没等他们到达半山腰， 紫丁香的芬芳已经向他们飘了过来。于是， 孩子们开始奔跑。不久， 那位母亲也开始跑起来， 直至到达山顶。

那里， 远离了过往司机的视野， 避开了纷扰的文明世界， 高耸的丁香花丛开满了硕大的圆锥形的串串花束， 几乎把花茎压成了两折。那个年轻女人微笑着冲到最近的一处花丛， 把脸埋在鲜花中， 啜饮着芳香， 陶醉在重新唤起的记忆中。

while the man examined the cellar hole and tried to explain to the children what the house must have looked like, the woman drifted among the lilacs. carefully, she chose a sprig here, another one there, and clipped them with her husbands pocket knife. she was in no hurry, relishing each blossom as a rare and delicate treasure. finally, though, they returned to their car for the trip home. while the kids chattered and the man drove, the woman sat smiling, surrounded by her flowers, a faraway look in her eyes.

在那个男人察看地窖试图向孩子们解释这座房子必定是什么样子的当儿， 那个女人不由自主地走进了紫丁香花丛。她小心翼翼地从这儿摘一枝， 那儿挑一束， 然后用丈夫的袖珍小刀将它们剪下来。她不慌不忙， 像欣赏稀有珍宝似地欣赏着每一朵花。

然而， 他们终于还是返回了汽车， 走上了回家的路。孩子们叽叽喳喳说个不停， 那个男人驾着车， 那个女人坐在那儿面带微笑， 她周围放满了鲜花， 眼睛里充满着向往。

when they were within three miles of home, she suddenly shouted to her husband, stop the car. stop right here! the man slammed on the brakes. before he could ask her why she wanted to stop, the woman was out of the car and hurrying up a nearby grassy slope with the lilacs still in her arms. at the top of the hill was a nursing home and, because it was such a beautiful spring day, the patients were outdoors strolling with relatives or sitting on the porch.

当他们离家不足3英里时， 她突然向丈夫大声喊道：停车， 就在这里停车!

那个男人嘎地刹住车。还没等他问为什么， 女人就已经下了车， 匆匆走向附近的草坡， 怀里仍抱着紫丁香。山顶上是一家疗养院， 因为这是一个美丽的春日， 所以病人正在室外和亲友溜达或坐在门廊上。

the young woman went to the end of the porch, where an elderly patient was sitting in her wheelchair, alone, head bowed, her back to most of the others. across the porch railing went the flowers, in to the lap of the old woman. she lifted her head, and smiled. for a few moments, the two women chatted, both aglow with happiness, and then the young woman turned and ran back to her family. as the car pulled away, the woman in the wheelchair waved, and clutched the lilacs.

那个年轻女人走到门廊的尽头， 只见那里有一个上了年纪的病人正坐在轮椅里， 独自一人， 低着头， 背对着其他人。年轻女人越过门廊栏杆， 将鲜花放在了老太太的膝间。老太太抬起头， 露出了笑脸。两个女人聊了一会儿， 都兴高采烈。随后， 那个年轻女人转身跑回到家人的身边。当汽车开动时， 坐在轮椅里的那个女人挥动着手， 手里紧紧地握着那束紫丁香花。

mom, the kids asked, who was that?why did you give her our flowers?is she somebodys mother?the mother said she didnt know the old woman. but it was mothers day, and she seemed so alone, and who wouldnt be cheered by flowers?besides, she added, i have all of you, and i still have my mother, even if she is far away. that woman needed those flowers more than i did.

this satisfied the kids, but not the husband. the next day he purchased half a dozen young lilacs bushes and planted them around their yard, and several times since then he has added more.

妈妈， 孩子们问， 那人是谁呀?你为什么把我们的花送给她?她是谁的母亲呀?他们的母亲说， 她不认识那个老太太， 但今天是母亲节， 她看起来是那么孤独， 而鲜花会给任何人带来好心情。再说， 她补充道， 我拥有你们， 而且我还有自己的母亲， 即使她离我很远。那个女人比我更需要那些鲜花。

孩子们得到了满意的答案， 但她的丈夫却没有。第二天， 他买了半打紫丁香幼苗， 栽到了院子四周;而且从那以后， 每隔一段时间， 他就会增加一些。

i was that man. the young mother was, and is, my wife. now, every may, our own yard is redolent with lilacs. every mothers day our kids gather purple bouquets. and every year i remember that smile on a lonely old womans face, and the kindness that put the smile there.

我就是那个男人， 那个年轻母亲是我妻子。如今， 每年5月， 我们自家的院子都会散发出浓烈的紫丁香的芬芳。每逢母亲节， 我们的孩子都要采撷紫丁香花束。而且每年我都会记起一位孤独的老太太脸上露出的笑容， 以及笑容里呈现出的那种慈祥。

The ancient said the world is a book and those who do not travel read only

one page. I like travel, because travel not only allows me to enjoy the great

rivers and mountains of the motherland, but also brings me knowledge and

exercise. Beautiful sceneries make me impressed and friendly people make me

warm. Travel is a process of discovery of beauty that would company my whole

life. I like the feeling on the road, which greatly enrich my life and fields of

vision. Being to different places, seeing different views makes me know how big

the world is, so that I won’t bother my trifles. I think a broad mind is

extremely important to a person, and traveling is a good way to get it. Maybe

some people would say that I travel just because I want to relax. There’s no

doubt about that. No matter for what reason, traveling is attractive to us

all.

I am a college student, this is my fourth year in the college, which means

that I will graduate soon. Nowadays, many of my classmates have taken the action

to find the job interview, while I tell myself to calm down, actually, I have no

idea about my future, so I haven’t taken the action.

When the graduate season comes, students have to worry about their jobs,

for me, I have many annoyances, first, I don’t know which city should I go. On

the one hand, I want to stay in the present city that I live, because I have

many college students here, I can fight my career with them, we can also take a

drink when we have time. But on the other hand, if I want to stay in this city,

it means I have to be far away from home. I want to stay with my family, my

parents want to see me and I want to accompany them, working at my hometown is a

perfect idea for me. Now I still don’t know how to choose, once I have made the

decision, I have to give up something.

Before I make the best choice for me, i won’t find the job interview.

Mid-autumn festival is one of the most important day for Chinese people.

The families will get together and enjoy the reunion. Mooncake is the typical

food. People will have it while appreciate the full moon. At this time, the old

generation like to tell the story of Hou Yi and his wife, which is the coming of

this festival. Hou Yi is a man with great strength. He shot down nine suns and

left only one. While his wife was so curious to taste the pill which Hou Yi told

her to keep it for him. Then his wife flied to the moon and left Hou Yi forever.

It is said that the wife lives in the moon. So when we look at moon, she is

watching us.
