When we were children, we often say that I want to grow up, or I want to be

an adult. As children, we cannot do many things, while after we grow up, we can.

However, we often complain that I don’t want to grow up when we become adults

actually.

Firstly, growing up means more responsibilities. We should make a living by

ourselves or we should support our parents when they can’t earn enough money to

make a living.

Econdly, after graduation, we need to work instead of accomplishing

nothing. We should have a target and work for it, so we have pressure on

jobs.

Every coin has two sides. Grow up can also broaden our horizon, offer us an

opportunity to know more about our world, love and protect the important person

in our life. Don’t be afraid of growing up, just be a better person and enjoy

our life.

初中寒假作文:春节印象

在这个少雪且日渐温暖的季节里,春节不知不觉掩埋了平淡的日子,迎面扑来。看着墙上新买的挂历,数着本世纪最后一个春节临近的日子,不禁感叹岁月匆匆,流逝的又是一个平静而忙碌的一年。

年近而立,孩提时代积攒的或多或少的好印象随之趋淡,不再是鞭炮烟花水饺压岁钱的年代,不再憧憬自己又长了一岁,见识又多了一成,与其说春节是个最快乐的时候,不如说是个让人猛然意识到年龄为之衰老、责任为之重大的关口。

泛泛地祝贺一下,说几句辞旧迎新的吉利话,写一点闹春怀旧的文章,早就没了那份雅兴。像节目主持人一般,说说今年大事,感慨今昔,畅想未来,不过是赢得捧场人恭维的掌声。自欺欺人的话我不说,或许我们的期望太高,春节不过是一年365天里平平常常的一天,我们对它注入了太多的文化内涵和商业炒作,因而显得格外沉重。其实,我们不如以一颗平常心待之,抑制那份期望和躁动,在吃喝说笑、探亲访友的程式外,获得一些不易觉察的满足。

曾经,春节留给我许多美丽又难忘的记忆。我想,今天的孩子们也会和我当时一样,感受到这一喜庆而隆重的节日。但是,不同年龄阶段有不同的体验,或许是自己的性格和兴趣使然,无论各类媒体如何渲染轰炸,我的实际感受总是不尽人意,比平常的日子,多了许多无奈,多了些烦累与沉重。父母那里必须去,亲朋好友那里也得去,同事相约还得去,实质内容总不外乎吃喝二字。恭喜发财、新年好、大吉大利之类的陈词滥调说得心里别扭却又不得不一遍遍反复念叨。游街购物、猜谜挑灯、送礼请客一年又一年重重复复无休无止。人就像一只陀螺,被它抽打着旋转不止,自己都不知道重心在哪里。如此不堪重负的节日,我们还要强作儿时的兴奋,观看彻夜循环的晚会,听听属于别人的笑声,感受的却是自己困乏的双眼、失望的情绪、无欲的胃。我宁肯像往常一样,粗茶淡饭,十点钟睡觉,临时看一会书,或者跟朋友们打一圈牌。总觉得在这个全民皆欢的日子,我丝毫的兴致都没有,甚至一向良好的食欲。

传统、文化、历史、习俗原是人为的产物,是我们的祖先制定了它,我们一代一代人不停地拷贝翻版,演化发挥使其辉煌灿烂,更有网络的宣传让其飞腾变异,它最终制约了我们自己,违背了人类起码的一点本性--人是向往自由和幸福的,春节,可以说是一面最为清晰的镜子,从中每个人都能看到,如此疲惫消极的脸孔,是你儿时的样子吗?哪怕一丝欢乐的影子。

是的,我们不断老去,不断感受世事沧桑。今年的春节又被明年的春节复制,今天的不快明天就可能烟消云散,记忆过滤了每个人心底的阴影和悲伤,剩下的或许就是可以称之为美丽的东西吧,但是曾经呢?那里没有我们的位置,那是经过虚化的,虚拟的,明知是假我们还要重复,还要写成文章,哄一哄行人和孩子。

不能老去,怕只有童年的纯真吧忧思觉醒良知。

Smelling, a little life has come into this world -- I. With the advent of the rose, my father and mother took a name for me, called Tang - Jing - Wei.

I have a dark black hair, a small pair of eyes and a small cherry mouth. (I dont know, you say it)

I am very active. There are a few sad things in the boundless. Although I cant see any beautiful women, I can see for a while. In class, my popularity is very high. Almost all of my classmates like to make friends with me.

I like singing very much, and the love of the song is not enough. When I sleep, song with its elegant melody with me into the sweet dreams; when I feel sad, song with its cheerful music, let me forget all the troubles; when I feel happy, with its festive rhythm will comfort me, as if you are in a happy paradise...... But, my future it does not accompany me, and depend on my own efforts to strive for. Every day I think one day, I stood on a big stage, the cheers of the audience, the band accompaniment sound, and behind me as I dance dancers. How brilliant and romantic the moment was! But compared to now, from the big stage is how far away, only a day alone lying in the window, quietly look up in the stars from the sky, or knocked down the rain, the mouth can not help but sing out: "opened the night of the skylight, said the desire to the meteor, give me wings, to close to the sun...... If I want to sing and sing, sing and sing loudly, even if there is no one to applaud for me, at least I can be able to enjoy myself bravely... " Yes, I did not applaud this life for me, but I still have the courage to enjoy myself. But the only thing that can listen to me now is that that does not speak. Please bring my wish to the meteor, and bring my heart to the meteor.

This is me, a love of music, once crazy about music, forget to learn, like me to make friends with me.

猪八戒去打水,他来到小溪边,那灵敏的猪鼻子闻到了诱人的馒头香味。他摸摸肚皮自言自语道:“老猪我肚子饿了,去找点儿吃的,师父他老人家一定不会怪罪我吧!”说完,它便循着香味一阵风似的朝离小溪不远的饭店冲了过去。他一进门,饭店里的人们不约而同地惊叫道:“啊!妖怪来了!妖怪来了!”他们像受惊的麻雀一样边叫着,边四散逃开了。八戒可管不了那么多,风扫残云般地吃起了馒头。

他张开大嘴,一手抓起一个馒头就往嘴里塞,连嚼都不嚼,整个吞了下去。这个没吃完,那个又塞进了嘴里,盘子里的馒头越来越少,可八戒的肚子却越来越大,他不停地吃着,吃完了这盘吃那盘。这时候,店主人的女儿走了进来,八戒连忙闭上嘴,尴尬地放下馒头,不好意思地咬了一小口馒头,在嘴里细嚼慢咽起来。

他吃完桌上的馒头后用手抹了抹嘴,又带了一大包馒头回去。孙悟空见了,笑道:“你这个猪呆子,吃了人家那么多的馒头,又不给钱,还带了这么多回来,真是贪得无厌啊!”说完,他们师徒四人哈哈大笑起来。

篇9:有关春节守岁初中作文500字

守岁是童年记忆里最深刻的年俗之一。

守岁的前半夜我斗志昂扬,充满信心。“开饭喽!”随着大姨一声召唤,守岁的开幕大戏——年夜饭开始了,菜香、酒香和家人的欢声笑语充满了屋子。大人们一边吃一边聊,交流着这年的生活状况,描绘着对来年生活的憧憬,相互打趣,相互祝福。我和同辈的孩子们则一顿狼吞虎咽后跑到院子里放起了烟花爆竹。尽管爆竹炸响时我总是捂着耳朵,但五彩缤纷的烟花依旧吸引着我迟迟不愿离开,在一旁又叫又跳,兴奋无比。

小姨也走过来与我聊天,“彤彤,你知道什么是守岁吗?”“知道呀。”我仰头望着她,“就是家人在年三十晚上,团聚在一起相互守护,阻止年兽毁坏家园。”“说得真好!”小姨夸奖道,“守岁还有一个寓意就是辞旧迎新,期待新的一年吉祥如意……”这时,我明白了大人们为什么能熬过这漫漫长夜了,并暗暗下定决心,一定要等到新年的来临。

我承认,我是守岁的失败者,但我却懂得了为什么守岁。守岁,守岁,守着家,守着亲人,大人们守着孩子健康长大,孩子们守着大人延年益寿。

今年,我随爸妈一起去老家过年。这次,我决定和大家一样也要守岁,让新年的晨曦第一时间映入眼帘,体验一下这意义非凡的传统年俗。

时间一点点过去,渐渐进入了守岁的攻坚阶段。大人们有的在看春晚节目,有的在喝茶聊天,有的在打牌娱乐,而孩子们玩着玩着,瞌睡虫便来了。外婆笑眯眯地走过来,摸摸我的脑袋说:“可千万别睡着哦。”“嗯,嗯,我一定要守到新年的钟声响起!”我不服输地说道。趁外婆不注意,便悄悄溜进卫生间,用凉水洗脸,让自己保持清醒。

守岁不知道是什么时候结束的,我醒来时却睡在暖暖的被窝里,枕边放着一套崭新的新年服、一个红红的压岁包、还有一个大大的红苹果。一睁眼就看到了“平安”。

Sunrise at Sea

Ba Jin

I would often get up early to watch the sunrise when it was not yet quiet light and all was quiet except for the droning of the ship engine.

The sky was pale with a bluish blue. Soon a streak of pink dawn broke over the horizon,expanding gradually and becoming brighter and brighter. Knowing that the sun was about to rise, I had my eyes fixed on the distant edge of the sea.

As expected, the sun soon appeared revealing half of its face, which was very red but not bright It kept rising laboriously bit by bit as if weighted down with a heavy burden on its back until,after breaking through the rosy clouds;it completely emerged from the sea aglow with a lovely red. Then,before I knew it, the dark red orb began to shine blazingly, dazzling my eyes until they stung and all of a sudden lighting up the surrounding cloud.

Sometimes,hidden by the clouds, the sun nonetheless shed its rays straight onto the sea water, making it difficult for me to distinguish between the sky and the sea because what I saw in front of me was nothing but a wide expanse of brilliant light.

Sometimes, with thick layers of dark clouds hanging in the sky, the sun was hardly visible to the naked eye. But its radiance managed to show through the dark clouds to edge them with golden lace. Then, after gradually breaking through the tight encirclement, it came into full view and even dyed the dark clouds purple or scarlet. At the moment, apart from the sun,the clouds and the seawater, I too was luminous.

Wasnt that a marvelous spectacle?

The way of learning English

Nowadays, English has become the international standard language. As China is stepping to the internationalization, learning English is more and more important. But many people find it hard to learn English well. According to my own learning experience, I think determination, read English materials and patience are the most significant.

如今,英语已经成为国际标准语言。由于中国正在迈向国际化,学习英语变得越来越重要。但是许多人发现很难学好英语。根据我自己的学习经验,我觉得决心,阅读英语材料和耐心是最重要的。

First of all, doing everything needs determination. Determination is a prerequisite to do something. When facing difficulty, the people who have determination will insist, on contrary, thepeople who don’t have determinatin are easily give up. Thus, if people wants to do something well, the first thing they need to do is to make up their mind. Secondly,reading English materials is a great help for learning English. It can help people raise sense for English language,have interest and confidence in Engilsh. That will help people a lot in the process of learning. Last, patience is necessary in English learning. Most people will feel difficult to learn English at the beginning. The people without patience will often upset towards learning English. As a result, it will increase the difficulties of learning English and vice versa.

首先,做所有的事情都需要决心。决心是做一件事的一个先决条件。面对困难时,有决心的人会坚持下去,相反,那些没有决心的人则很容易放弃。因此,如果有人想完成一件事情,他们要做的第一件事是下定决心。其次,阅读英语材料对学习英语有很大的帮助。它可以帮助人们提高英语语感,对英语有兴趣和信心。这将在学习的过程中对人们的帮助很大。最后,耐心在英语学习中是必须的。刚开始学习英语的时候大多数人都会觉得很难。没有耐心的人对学习英语会经常感到心烦。结果就是增加了学习英语的困难,反之亦然。

In general, determination, reading English materials and patience are the effective ways to learn English. If people recognize those, they will learn it well sooner or later.

总之,决心,阅读英语材料和耐心是学习英语的有效途径。如果人们意识到这些,他们迟早都会学好它的。

篇17:怀念的英语作文初中

全文共 2558 字

When memory began for me, my grandfather was past sixty-a great tall man

with thick hair becoming gray. He had black eyes and a straight nose which ended

in a slightly flattened tip. Once he explained seriously to me that he got that

flattened tip as a small child when he fell down and stepped on his nose.

The little marks of laughter at the corners of his eyes were the prodnct of

a kindly and humorous nature. The years of work which had bent his shoulders had

never dulled his humour nor his love of a joke.

Everywhere he went, "Gramp" made friends easily. At the end of half an hour

you felt you had known him all your life. I soon learned that he hated to give

orders , but that when he had to, he tried to make his orders sound like

suggestions.

One July morning, as he was leaving to go to the cornfield, he said :

"Edwin, you can pick up the potatoes in the field today if you want to do that.

" Then he drove away with his horses.

The day passed, and I did not have any desire to pick up potatoes. Evening

came and the potatoes were still in the field. Gramp, dusty and tired, led the

horses to get their drink.

"How many bags of potatoes were there?" Gramp inquired. "I dont know.

"

"How many potatoes did you pick up?"

"I didnt pick any. " "Not any! Why not?"

"You said I could pick, them up if I wanted to. You didnt say I had to.

"

In the next few minutes I learned a lesson I would not forget: when Gramp

said I could if I wanted to, he meant that I should want to.

Gram hated cruelty and injustice. The injustices of history, even those of

a thousand years before, angered her as much as the injustices of her own

day.

She also had a deep love of beauty. When she was almost seventy-five, and

had gone to live with one of her daughters, she spent a delightful morning

washing dishes because, as she said, the beautiful patterns on the dishes gave

her pleasure. The bird, the flowers, the clouds-all that was beautiful around

her- pleased her. She was like the father of the French painter, Millet, who

used to gather grass and show it to his son , saying , "See how beautif ul this

is ! "

In a pioneer society it is the harder qualities of mind and character that

are of value. The softer virtues are considered unnecessary. Men and women

struggling daily to earn a living are unable, even for a moment, to forget the

business of preserving their lives. Only unusual people, like my grandparents,

manage to keep the softer qualities in a world of daily struggle.

Such were the two people with whom I spent the months from June to

September in the wonderful days of summer and youth.
