I learn Chines, math, English, PE, Nature and other subjects in school.

Among them, my favorite subjects are English, PE and Nature. English is an

interesting course that I like it very much. The pronunciation and spell are so

different from Chinese. In PE class, I can play games or doing exercises. After

all, sitting so long in classroom, having a class outside makes me relax. Nature

is really a wonderful subject that I can learn a lot in it. Its knowledge covers

astronomy, geography and biology. It’s helpful to know the world better. With

these subjects I like, I am eager to go to school and pay attention to my

study.

篇1:高二年级关于读书的英语作文

全文共 1870 字

+ 加入清单

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。

First, I’ll say something about World Expo History. As we know, the very first World Expo, the Great Exhibition of 1851, took place in the Crystal Palace in London. UK. Ever since then, the goals of World Expos have been both high-minded as well as commercial. Visitors are able to explore the world outside of their everyday experience—outside cultures, new scientific advancements, and new inventions. World Expos have excited and inspired more and more people in the world

On December3, 2002, the Bureau of International Expositions (or call it BIE) announced that Shanghai will host Expo2010. the BIE had received bids from five cities to host Expo2010. Among the 5 nice cities, the BIE chose Shanghai at last! It’s really an exciting news for not only Shanghainese, but also all of Chinese people. Here are some details about it.

Loot at this profile carefully. The title is “The 2010 World Exposition ,Shanghai, China ”。 this is the logo.

And the theme is “better city., better life”。OK, let’s guess who is the image representative? Yeah, you’re right, Yao Ming!

Shanghai Expo is the first comprehensive World Expo held in a developing country. And it is also the first one that takes “the city” as its theme, hoping that it can push forward the city development and help bring about a better urban living environment, just like the theme: better city, better life.

I think, as a student in Shanghai, we should learn to be a gentle person and keep good manners from now on. And try to practice English more in order to communicate with foreigners fluently in the near future. Because, we’re a part of Shanghai!

With the development of science , more and more people are confused that whether it is good or bad to make robort. Are roborts going to take place of human beings.

Every coin has two side. Robort can be good to our society and life. At the same time,it also have some bad effect on our life.In my opinion, the advantages of robort are much more than the disadvantage of roborts.

First, roborts make our life more convenient. We can do many thing that we didnt have the ability to do in the past by using roborts.That makes our life more effective.

Second, roborts can be used in industry produce. Factories can reduce the cost of prodution by using roborts. Roborts do not need to eat and they will not be ill. Thats very good for producing goods.

Third,roborts can save more people when disaster happens. Because they cant feel pain and they can save more people without feeling tired.

In a word, the world is changing .We should also change our thought to accept roborts to become part of our life . That can make our life more colorful.

随着科技的发展,越来越多的人都感到困惑,是好是坏机器人。是机器人将取代人类。

每个硬币都有两面。机器人可以很好的为我们的社会和生活。同时,它对我们的生活也有不好的影响。在我看来,对机器人的优点远大于缺点的机器人。

首先,机器人使得我们的生活更方便。我们能做的,我们没有做过去用机器人的能力,很多事情,使我们的生活更有效。

其次,机器人可以用于工业生产。工厂可以通过降低生产成本的机器人。机器人不需要吃饭,他们会不会生病。这是非常好的生产商品。

第三,机器人可以挽救更多的人,当灾难发生时。因为他们不能感到痛苦,他们可以拯救更多的人而不觉得累。

总之,世界在变化,我们也应该改变我们的思想,接受机器人成为我们生活的一部分。这可以使我们的生活更加丰富多彩。

It is the traditional merit to respect the old in China. Since I was very

small, I received the education that young people should respect the old without

any question. I kept it in my heart and showed respect to the old people all the

time. But as I grew up and with the development of Internet, media exposed the

negative side of the old people. They were rude and impolite sometimes, some of

them took it for granted that young people should serve to them. So people start

to think about whether it was worthy giving priority to the old. In my opinion,

it is the adorable behavior that deserves to be respected, instead of the age.

When old people were rude, they also needed to face the publics criticism. Only

they each would draw a snake on the ground and the one who first finished

the bottle and said ,“Ive finished. Snakes have no feet, so yours is not a

篇11:高二英语作文:brought rain in April Mayflower

全文共 1984 字

from the golden-tipped fields of mid-west america to the ancient kingdoms of verdant palestine, there is a happy truth to be shared with all who would take heed. in more recent times, this truth has been expressed as: april showers bring may flowers. this is a truth that promises light bursting from darkness, strength born from weakness and, if one dares to believe, life emerging from death.

从美国中西部金色的田野,到巴勒斯坦嫩绿色的古老疆土,那些留心观察的人共享着同一个快乐真理。近来这一真理被阐述为:四月的雨带来五月的花。这一真理预示光明会从黑暗中迸发;刚强生自软弱;如果你敢确信,生命会从死亡中萌发!

farmers all over the world know the importance and immutability of the seasons. they know that there is a season to plant and a season to harvest; everything must be done in its own time. although the rain pours down with the utmost relentlessness, ceasing all outdoor activities, the man of the field lifts his face to the heavens and smiles. despite the inconvenience, he knows that the rain provides the nourishment his crops need to grow and flourish. the torrential rains in the month of april, give rise to the glorious flowers in the month of may.

全世界的农民们都明白季节的重要性和永恒性。他们知道在哪个季节播种,哪个季节收获,每件事都必须应时而做!虽然暴雨无情地倾盆而下,迫使所有的户外劳作停止,但土地的主人会仰天微笑。尽管有诸多不便,但是他知道,雨会为他的庄稼带来繁茂生长所需的营养。四月里的豪雨,会带来五月里的繁花似锦。

but this ancient truth applies to more than the crops of the fields; it is an invaluable message of hope to all who experience tragedy in life. a dashed relationship with one can open up the door to a brand new friendship with another. a lost job here can provide the opportunity for a better job there. a broken dream can become the foundation of a wonderful future. everything has its place.

但是这一古老真理并不只适用于田里的庄稼,它还是那些正经历着人生磨难的人的无限希冀:一段友谊的受挫会开启另一段崭新友谊的大门;此处失去的工作会提供彼处更好的工作机会;一个梦想的破灭会成为美好未来的基石。万物皆有道!

remember this: overwhelming darkness may endure for a night, but it will never overcome the radiant light of the morning. when you are in a season of sorrow, hang in there, because a season of joy may be just around the corner…

请谨记:势不可挡的黑暗或有一晚,但它永远无法阻挡清晨的万丈光芒!当你正处于悲伤之季,请坚持住,因为欢乐的季节也许马上就会到来……

There is an old saying in China“people need face while the trees need skin”,the meaning is that Chinese people pay special attention on the dignity. Loving face is most people’s behavior, so they like to brag, they enjoy being adored by others. About the face problem, I think we should not take it serious, we are not living for other people, we are living for ourselves. The real self-esteem is from our hearts, not from other people. Chinese people like to brag, they brag about their property, hoping that people will respect him. The funny thing is that only the fake successful people will brag, the real one is silent, they keep working hard, the successful career supports their self-esteem. If we want people to respect us, we should show our reality, be nice to them, never brag about ourselves.

在中国有句老话“人要脸树要皮”,意思是中国人很注重尊严问题。爱面子是大多数人的习惯,他们喜欢吹嘘,享受被人崇拜。关于面子问题,我认为我们不应该把它看得很重,我们不是为别人而活,是为自己而活。真正的自尊是出于我们的内心,不是看别人。中国人喜欢吹牛,他们夸大自己的财产,希望人们尊重他们。有趣的是只有不成功的人才会吹牛,真正成功的人是沉默的,他们努力工作,事业的成功支撑着他们的自尊。如果我们想要别人尊重我们,我们应该展示我们真实的一面,对人友好,不要吹牛。

word. We should guess its meaning through the contest first. Then look it up in

the dictionary to have a check. I thin,, it is a good way of reading.

Fourthly, we should practice our writing skills. Whenever we have any idea,

we should get the pen and write it down at once. It is very important to avoid

writing in Chinese way and using the Chinese grammar.

As long as we listen, speak, read and write more, we are sure to make

From Monday until Friday most people are busy working or studying, but in

the evenings and on weekends they are free to relax and enjoy themselves. Some

watch television or go to the movies; others participate in sports. It depends

on individual interests. There are many different ways to spend our spare

time.

Almost everyone has some kind of hobby. It may be anything from collecting

stamps to making model airplanes. Some hobbies are worth a lot of money; others

are valuable only to their owners.

I know a man who has a coin collection worth several thousand yuan. A short

time ago he bought a rare ten-yuan piece worth 250 yuan. He was very happy about

the purchase and thought the price was reasonable. On the other hand, my son

collects match boxes. He has almost 600 of them but I doubt if they are worth

any money. However, to my son they are extremely valuable. Nothing makes him

happier than to find a new match-box for his collection.

Thats what a hobby means, I guess. It is something we like to do in our

spare time simply for the fun of it. The value in money is not important, but

the pleasure it gives us is.
