There are three people in my family, my parents and I. My parents are doctors who work in a big hospital in my city. I have many interests. Swimming, reading and movie are my favorites, which bring color to my busy study life. In study, I am good at Chinese and English, while math is my weakness.

以下是为大家整理的关于以中国环境污染话题初中英语作文的文章,希望大家能够喜欢!

Directions:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic:

Pollution: An Increasing Concern in China You should write at least120 words following the outline below in Chinese.

1. 中国的污染的现状

2. 造成污染的原因

3. 解决的办法

Pollution: An Increasing Concern in China

It is reported that ten big cities in China are being ranked among the top twenty cities with the highest pollution index in the world. This means it is high time we did something to bring the situation under control.Many factors are contributing to the deteriorating situation: industrial wastes pumped into the air, the lakes and rivers; a increasing number of automobiles crowding into the streets; the widespread use of plastic bags etc.

To my view, stiffer laws and regulations must be implemented to check pollution. Industries that release wastes without permission should be heavily fined. Cars should be equipped to minimize the exhaust they release into the air. And the use of plastic bags and disposable meal boxes should be banned. What’s more, the media should play an important role in implanting a sense of environmental consciousness into people’s mind. If everybody works toward a common goal of making the environment better, we can create a cleaner and lovelier world for us and for the coming generation.

篇5:有关交流英语作文初中

全文共 1956 字

+ 加入清单

Clearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live we must

communicate with other people.

A great deal of communicating is performed on a person-to-person basis by

the simple means of speech.

If we travel in buses, buy things in shops, or eat in restaurants, we are

likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions, receive news

or comment, and very likely have our views challenged by other members of

society.

Face-to-face contact is by no means the only form of communication and

during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one

of the dominating factors of contemporary society.

Firstly, inventiveness has led to advances in printing, telecommunications,

photography, radio and television.

Secondly, speed has revolutionized the transmission and reception of

communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news,

which itself is often almost eclipsed by international news.

No longer is the possession of information confined to a privileged

minority.

In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed

fortunate, but today there are public libraries.

Forty years ago people used to flock to the cinema, but now far more people

sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a program that is being channeled into

millions of homes.

Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of

information.

The modern communication industry influences the way people live in society

and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information, education and

entertainment.

The printing, broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with

informing, educating and entertaining.

Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is

very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is a part, the

vast modern network of communications is open to abuse.

However, the mass media are with us for better, for worse, and there is no

turning back.

On the thirty night of the year, after our family had finished the dinner, I could not wait to wait in front of the TV set, waiting for the start of the Spring Festival Gala. Eight oclock arrived at the end of the party. I cant keep my eyes on the TV, and I dont want to leave half a step, and Im afraid to miss a good program.

除夕之夜,我们的小区非常热闹。每幢楼的门口都贴上了春联;家家户户的门窗里都飘出年夜饭的香味;小孩子们穿着新衣服,在院子里尽情的追逐着、嬉闹着,有的在放着各种各样的礼花和鞭炮。

我们家的门上,贴上了爸爸买回来的的春联。春联是:“春风春雨春色,新岁新年新景”。横批是:“春意盎然”。

晚上,我们全家坐在一起,客厅的桌子上放着水果、点心、瓜子和糖果。我们一边吃着丰盛的年夜饭,一边等着看春节晚会。爸爸、妈妈今天显得特别高兴。爸爸妈妈都希望我今后学习要好好努力!更上一层楼!我说了许多祝福爸爸、妈妈的话,表示了今后要更加努力学习的决心。我也端起杯子说:“祝爸爸、妈妈在新的一年里身体健康、万事如意,生活得快快乐乐、踏踏实实”。我们全家都碰了杯,我喝的是饮料,爸爸、妈妈都喝了酒。

吃完年夜饭,我们全家围在一起看春节晚会。爸爸早就把春节晚会的节目单从网上下载打印出来了。我们一边拿着节目单,一边看着电视。今年的春节晚会可精彩了。有歌曲、戏曲、杂技、舞蹈、小品、相声、魔术等40多个节目。尤其是赵本山的《捐助》、黄宏的《美丽的尴尬》、冯巩的《不能让他走》,逗得我们都笑痛了肚子。整个春节联欢晚会的节目真是一年比一年精彩。

到了晚上十二点,晚会的气氛达到了高潮,门外也响起了此起彼伏的鞭炮声。我们全家都来到楼下的小区里看热闹。小区里的人可多了,大人、小孩都在放着鞭炮。那噼里啪啦的鞭炮声,震得我和姐姐早就捂起了耳朵。一束束五颜六色的烟花直冲云天,然后爆炸、散开,真是五彩缤纷,好看极了。小区里到处都是欢声笑语。

我叫某某某,个子不算太高,总爱扎个马尾辫,走起路来左甩右甩。更喜欢和别人开玩笑,看见别人被自己耍,心里有点小得意。至于学习呢!喜欢学数学,因为数学靠理解,不需要死记硬背。没有什么优点,缺点就是比较贪玩,马虎,我现在已经步入了初中,在这个新学校里已经度过了三天。这三天里,接触了新同学,新学科,还有新的老师。从以前的三科变成了七科,从放松的过程变成了紧张而又有压力的过程。并且语文老师严肃,数学老师幽默,英语老师看似文静但体内热火不断……

在初中,我们大家都是零起点,只要按照老师说的做,就会有进步。初中是个至关重要的阶段,而且我们还正处于青春期的判逆时期,我们往往会因为自己的判逆心理而不听从管教,步入误区。

我们学习要有计划有目标,并不是老师说什么你才做什么,在初中里,老师就是指路人,他把路给你指出来,但路还是要自己走得。"天才在于积累,聪明在于勤奋。"只有我们慢慢积累,才有可能成为天才;只有我们勤奋了,我们才会越来越聪明。

大家站在同一起跑线上,没有天地差异,没有好坏之分,希望大家共同进步。

Dear Mike,

In your last letter, you mentioned that you want to know something about the Spring Festival. I am writing to tell you about it. Spring Festival has a long history, which was originally celebrated to scare away a fierce beast “Nian”. Slightly different from that in the past, it is now given new meanings and regarded as a way forpeople to enjoy reunion with their families however far they live or work. On the New Year’s Eve, each family has its members gathered together. They tell each other their lives in the past year, exchange gifts and eat a lot of delicious meals in the warmth of the family. Children can get lucky money in red paper. People have a good time, holding opera performances, and other celebrations.

I hope you will come here and experience this wonderful festival.

Yours,

Li Hua

在你的上一封信中,你提到你想知道春节的一些事情。我写信是想告诉你这件事。春节有着悠久的历史,最初是为了吓走一只凶猛的野兽“念”。略有不同,在过去,现在是赋予了新的内涵和作为人与他们的家人不管他们居住或工作的团聚。除夕之夜,每个家庭成员都聚在一起。他们在过去的一年里告诉彼此的生活,交换礼物和吃了很多美味的饭菜在温暖的家庭。孩子们可以用红纸得到压岁钱。人们有一个很好的时间,举行歌剧表演,和其他庆祝活动。

我希望你能来这里体验这个美妙的节日。

她有一头漂亮的乌发,她有一双明亮的大眼睛,她有一个能说会道的嘴巴,她就是我--王媛!

我的优点?嗨,那可太多了:优雅、端庄、开朗……我的爱好?那就是画画、围棋、书法等等等等。我的缺点?呜--有吗!应该有吧,只不过,只不过有一点点马虎,有一点点莽撞而已了。下面就给你一一讲解。

“博览群书”、“品学兼优”的我是最喜欢“写作”的,而且写的就如同天上的雪花一样,有棱有角又漂亮。我可没有夸张,上学期老师还在夸我的作文是最好的呢,不信你就去问问我的老同学。“多才多艺”的我也是同样热爱艺术的,例如美术。自从我上幼儿园起到现在都在一直学习画画,期期拿三四张美术奖状,已经是张飞吃豆芽--小菜一碟,“特等奖”、“一等奖”各种奖项更是多得满天飞。我一年级的时候,作品“未来的世界”还得过全国的金奖呢。怎么样,佩服我吧?

我活泼开朗,很喜欢交朋友,我交朋友的标准是非常严格的,她必须跟我的性格习惯都有相符的地方。我吧,让我安静的时候,我可以五个小时不说话,如果让我说,我就会说的让你头晕眼花站不稳。作为朋友,我动的时候她要能和我一起疯,我安静的时候,她也可以陪我一起安静,但一切都不是强行邀来的,而是发自内心的默契。所以,当我交到一个知心朋友再放弃她,是非常非常难的。就在开学的时候,我的知心朋友万亚轩就被分走了,没有和我在一个班,以前,我们在学校几乎是形影不离的,可现在三天见一次面就算不错了。每当想起和她在一起的快乐时光、珍贵岁月,都让我十分难过。

平时样样都好的我就有一个致命的、巨大的缺点,那就是时不时地马虎。这两天,作业一发下来,我就非常郁闷:“怎么还是九十八分?”回家一看,耶?不对,老师给我改错了。让妈妈一看,她便大声说:“老师没改错,这明明就是你写错了,再看看吧。”我赶忙接过作业,耶?还不对,我怎么写错了,刚才还对着呢,我又想了想,嗨,我原本以为那句话是对的,就给画了个对号,没想到人家往后空了几格,画了一个叉,让人判断。我真是太马虎了,这个让人头痛的问题,我一定要解决。生活中,我还经常发生像电影里周星驰一样的笑话--着啥啥败、摸啥啥坏,没办法,妈妈总跟在后面一边大呼“莽撞”,一边愤愤地收拾残局。

这就是我,一个有趣的小姑娘。你愿意成为我的新朋友吗?愿意陪着我度过接下来的小学生活吗?如果愿意,就一定告诉我呦!

全文共 1281 字

Southern Chinese eat niangao (New Year cake made of glutinous rice flour) on this occasion, because as a homophone, niangao means "higher and higher, one year after another." The first five days after the Spring Festival are a good time for relatives, friends, and classmates as well as colleagues to exchange greetings, gifts and chat leisurely.

Burning fireworks was once the most typical custom on the Spring Festival. People thought the spluttering sound could help drive away evil spirits. However, such an activity was completely or partially forbidden in big cities once the government took security, noise and pollution factors into consideration. As a replacement, some buy tapes with firecracker sounds to listen to, some break little balloons to get the sound too, while others buy firecracker handicrafts to hang in the living room.

The lively atmosphere not only fills every household, but permeates to streets and lanes. A series of activities such as lion dancing, dragon lantern dancing, lantern festivals and temple fairs will be held for days. The Spring Festival then comes to an end when the Lantern Festival is finished.

China has 56 ethnic groups. Minorities celebrate their Spring Festival almost the same day as the Han people, and they have different customs.
