阅读经典书籍的重要性英语作文（实用20篇）

“英语说明文”，顾名思义，就是一种以“说明、解释”为主要表达方式的英语文体。它是对客观事物的性状、特点、功能和用途等等做科学解说的。它既不像故事那样重在情节的叙述和描写，也不像议论文那样，重在阐明主张和论点论据；更不像科幻作品那样富于想象和虚构夸张。说明文是通过解说事物、阐明事理，使人们增长知识和技能。说明文是高考英语阅读理解题中的重点内容之一。说明文具有与自己特点相适应的说明方法，因此说明文结构复杂，专业术语多，易于拉开考生分数档次，便于高校分层次选拔人才。然而对于考生来说说明文抽象度高，解题难度增大了。高考对说明文的考查多为科普知识，动植物特性、自然现象和新产品、新工艺介绍以及人文地理、风土人情等方面的说明文，文中解释性、定义性、说明性的句子居多。因此考生要掌握说明文的命题特点，叙述方式，以冷静的心态阅读原文，重点突破长句结构特点和逻辑关系，以便对其做出准确的语意理解。

一、说明文阅读理解的特征 一般说来，英语说明文与其它文体一样，文章所涉及的内容不外乎以下几个方面，即Who→What→When→Where→How→Why。

1. Who：问的是这篇文章的主体是谁？（即所要说明和描述的人或事物）

2. What：问的是主体做了什么事情？（即主体表现出的特性、功能和用途）

3. When和Where：是在何时何地发生的？（即何时何地所表现出的特性、功能和用途）

4. How：通过什么方式表现出来的？

5. Why：这种特性功能用途的原因是什么？

做说明文阅读阅读的时候，一定要记住上面的Wh-word。边阅读，边搜记，牢记要点，把握全文。

二．说明文阅读理解的类型 掌握说明文阅读理解题的类型对考生来说非常有必要。一般来说，高考对阅读理解的命题类型主要有以下几种：

1. 细节理解题

说明文中考查的细节理解题大致与记叙文相似。命题区域都有其共同点。⑴在列举处命题。如用First(1y)、Second(1y)、Third(1y)Finally、not only…but also、then、in addition等表示顺承关系的词语列举出事实。试题要求考生从列举出的内容中选出符合题干要求的答案项。⑵在例证处命题。句中常用由as、such as、for example、for instance等引导的短语或句子作为例证，这些例句或比喻就成为命题者设问的焦点。⑶在转折对比处命题。一般通过however、but、yet、in fact等词语来引导。对比用unlike、until、not so much…as等词语引导，命题者常对用来对比的双方属性进行考查。⑷在比较处命题。无端的比较、

相反的比较、偷换对象的比较，经常出现在干扰项中，考生要标记并且关注到原文中的比较，才能顺利地排除干扰。⑸在复杂句中命题。包括同位词、插入语、定语、从句、不定式等，命题者主要考查考生对句子之间的指代关系和语法关系。

细节类问题一般都能在原文中找到出处，只要仔细就可以在文中找到答案。但正确的选择项不可能与阅读材料的原文完全相同，而是用不同的语句成句型表达相同的意思。

2. 语义猜测题 说明文为了把自然规律，事物的性质等介绍清楚或把事理阐述明白，因此学术性强的生词较多，所以常进行生词词义判断题的考查。命题方式多以The underlined part “…” in Paragraph…refers to….或What does the underlined word mean?或What is the meaning of the underlined word?为设问方式。解题时考生应认真阅读原文，分析其对某些科学原理是如何定义、如何解释的，并以此为突破口抽象概括出生词词义。也可以通过上下文来猜测某个陌生词语的语意。或者找出某个词语在文章中的同义词。要注意破折号、同位语从句、定语从句、插入句等具有解释、说明作用的语言成分。说明文在阐述说明对象时易发生动作变换、人称转变的现象，这类题目常以 it，they，them 等代词为命题点，因此考生要根据上下文语境，认真阅读原文，分析动作转换背景，弄清动作不同执行者，以便准确判断代词的其实际指代对象。

3. 主旨理解题

说明文常用文章大意判断题考查考生对通篇文意的理解。即对文章的主题或中心意思的概括和归纳。主要考查考生对文章的整体理解能力。命题形式常以This passage mainly talks about ____.What is the main idea of the passage?为设问方式。这种试题多以This passage mainly talks about the major

surprising findings about….为回答方法。答题时首先阅读题干，掌握问题的类型，了解试题题干以及各个选项所包含的信息，然后有针对性地对文章进行扫读，对有关信息进行快速定位，再将相关信息进行整合、甄别、分析、对比，有根有据地排除干扰项，选出正确答案。

4. 判断推理题。

这种试题常以The passage is intended to...(2) The author suggests that...(3) The story implies that…(4) Which point of view may the author agree to?(5) From the passage we can conclude that...(6) The purpose of the passage is to...为设问方式。这种题型的答案在原文中不是直接就能找到的，它要求考生进行合理的推断。如因果关系，文中的某些用词、语气也往往具有隐含意义，考生要将这种含义读出来。说明文常出现图示判断题，这种试题可以事物之间正确的依赖关系为命题点，要求考生判断其正确的流程顺序相互关系等。考生一定要认真阅读原文，并对照原文介绍的情况，弄清图示的差异，根据题干需要最终做出正确判断。如：动物介绍性说明文常出现动物能力判断题，考查考生对特定动物所具有能力的判断。解题时考生应认真阅读原文对动物形态活动能力的判断，了解动物的生存环境和是否会使用工具，是否善于爬行、飞翔和游泳等。

观点态度题也是判断推理题考查的内容之一。说明文的对象为客观事实,但设题以议论的表达方式抒发对该说明对象的想法。如对某种新发明的赞赏,或对某个事物的批判。这类题目常见的题干表达方式有"What was the author?s attitude towards ...?" 等。

【实例探究】 Northwest China is part of the sandstorm centre in Central Asia. Sandstorms begin in desert areas. Sandstorms in China appear to have increased in recent years as a result of "desertification". This is a process that happens when land becomes desert because of climate changes and because people cut down trees and dig up grass.

【问题设计】

According to the passage which is NOT likely to cause "desertification"?

A. Climate changes. B. Cutting down trees.

C. Digging up grass. D. Saving water.

My dear schoolmates,

There is no denying that safety plays an important part in our daily life. Recently our school has carried out a program aimed at making our campus a safe place to stay on. I considered this as indeed a good practice, which will make us aware that safety should come first in our daily life, whether when we stay at school or outside it. When we are doing sports, we should attach importance to the safety and avoid being hurt.

Furthermore, when we get into trouble with our classmates, we should remain calm and avoid any form of fighting, which may only bring suffering and pain to us mentally and physically.

As far as I’m concerned, I feel all the students and teachers should work hard and creatively to keep the “Safe Campus” activity in mind. Besides, we are supposed to

observe the law discipline wherever we are. Let’s start right now and spare no effort to do little bit every hour and I hope we have a good time everyday!

Thank you!

同学们：

随着科技越来越强大，电子阅读和掌上阅读也更加普遍。这样的确能够大大减少纸质阅读所花的时间，但是在减少了时间的同时也提高了中小学生的近视率。为此，我觉得应多抽时间用来纸质阅读。请尽力做到以下几点：

1。不要花大量的时间电子阅读。

2。要常抽出一些空闲时间，比如：课间，早晨，晚上等来纸质阅读。

3。要有选择性的阅读，不要孬读，什么书拿到就看，尽量少看漫画，小说的没有营养的书。要读好书。

4。读书时也要像吃饭一样，慢慢品读。不要囫囵吞枣，一目十行。这样就不能够体会到书中所蕴含着的真正意义。

5。读书时，最好一只手捧着书，另一只手拿着笔。一边读书，一边做着笔记，把好词佳句圈画出来。

6。一本书读完可以与小伙伴们交换着读，阅读完可以交换自己从书中所体会到的心得，在快乐中学习到新知识。

7。也要多看一些对我们有意义的书，比如：《三国演义》，《红楼梦》，《西游记》，《水浒传》等书籍。

8。看完一本书可以写一篇读后感。然后再去读一次，对照读后感，看看有没有新的收获。一本书反复着读，每读完一遍，（如果你认真读了），一定会有新的发现。

莎士比亚曾经说过：“书是全世界最大的营养品。”

你们相信这个世界上，有时光机和任意门么？你们一定觉得没有吧，不，他其实就在我们的身边，他就是书籍。书籍能够带我们了解历史书籍，能够让我们看见各地的风土人情。让我们一起在书的海洋里遨游吧！

Some people like to work alone while others enjoy teamwork. In my opinion, everyone had better learn to work with others together because teamwork is definitely necessary and important in modern society.

有些人喜欢单独工作，而有些人则喜欢团队合作。在我看来，每个人最好学习与他人一起工作，因为团队合作在现代社会是很有必要和重要的。

First, working in a team provides a chance for us to communicate with each other. Just as the saying goes, “many hands make light job.” Working in a team, teammates share their ideas with each other, which is helpful to create a better achievement. Second, working in a team is a way to broaden our horizon. Teammates in a team can learn something from each other because they are from different places, owning various experiences and hold different views towards things. Therefore, getting along with other teammates is also a process of increasing our knowledge. Finally, working in a team is also a way to establish our friendship. Teammates in a team have chances to help each other, to solve the problems together, to share the happiness of being successful, which make a great contribution to establishing friendship. Thus, working in a team is one of the most effective ways to extend our personal relationships.

首先，在一个团队中工作为我们提供了一个彼此沟通的机会。正如俗话所说，“众人拾柴火焰高。”在一个团队中工作，队友们互相分享他们的想法，这有助于创造更好的成绩。第二，在团队中工作是拓宽我们视野的一个好方式。一个团队的队友可以相互学习因为他们来自不同地方，拥有不同的经验并且对事物有不同的看法。因此，和其他队友相处融洽也是增长见识的过程。最后，团体合作有助于建立友谊。在一个团队的队友们有机会互相帮助，共同解决问题，分享成功的快乐，这些都为建立友谊做出很大的贡献。因此，在团队工作是最有效的扩展个人关系的方法之一。

To sum up, to learn to work in a team is really necessary and important and we should try to enjoy it.

总之，学习团队合作是真的很有必要和重要。我们应该尽量享受这一点。

碎片阅读的好处

Many people read on digital devices like cell phones and e-books. The fast pace of life leaves many people no time to sit and read a whole book, so making use of fragmented time to read is sure to be a trend. Fragmented reading has its advantages. People can get hold of large amounts of information, knowledge, and entertainment in a short time. Digital reading is faster and more interactive than traditional deep reading.

Fragmented reading makes it harder for people to reflect on what they read. People may not bother to remember facts because they know they can always just search for answers online. It is important to read quality books in a deeper way, even if that means forcing yourself to do so. We read not only for knowledge and for practical use, but also for spiritual satisfaction.

[与书籍有关的英语谚语

On the morning of June 1, the bright sunshine shone on the whole campus, making the provincial school more beautiful. In order to celebrate our childrens festival, the school specially held a colorful and interesting garden activity.

The activities of the garden include: fishing, shooting, blowing candles, shooting, guessing, beading, blind ball, shuttlecock, hula hoop, floating needle, playing table tennis... . Among them, I think the most interesting project is to blow the candle. The rule of the project is that if you blow out three or four candles, you can get a ticket. If you blow out five or six candles, you can get two tickets to the lottery.

When I came to the arena with gusto, more than 20 people were waiting in line, so I had to wait patiently at the back of the line. The procession moved slowly forward like water, hoping that it would be my turn to blink. At this time, some of the students blew out six candles in one breath, their faces with a complacent look.

I thought: air what, wait to see mine! Some students only blow out three or four candles in one breath; And classmates with great strength, small mouth bulging round, but doesnt even have a candle blow out, disappointed, they are unwilling, wanted to blow again, had to run to the back of the team continue to wait in line. Looking at their performance, my heart was both happy and nervous, and I was worried that I could not blow out one of them, and if that was the case, it would be too boring.

In a few minutes, and it was my turn to play, I hurried to put the candle stage, took a deep breath, and then quickly forward movement and the tone with the biggest power blowing the candles. "Wow," a marvel from my teachers and classmates, I looked back, "one, two, three, four, five" didnt expect me to blew out the candle and five I jumped with joy. The referees award gave me two tickets to the lottery. At this point, the students behind me were casting envious glances at me.

Later, I played a lot of projects and felt good. When the garden was over, I was sweating and my clothes were wet, but I was not tired at all. I wish I had "61" every day, and I would be so happy every day.

课外读物，能使我们增长许多知识，解决很多问题。

一、增长了健康生活常识：冬季常吃萝卜,可达到止咳化痰，清热解毒的效果。香菇味道鲜美且具有防治流感的功效，常吃还能阻止血管硬化。冬季保健应适当吃“冷”，常饮凉白开水有预防感冒的效果。预防冻疮应多参加各种运动，经常搓手、跺脚。天气多变,忽冷忽热易让人着凉,常吃些大蒜可以预防感冒。近期多小雨，空气湿度大，应注意室内通风。

二、懂得了校园安全常识：学生上课要遵守纪律，要听从老师指挥，体育课、活动课上应在老师的指导下使用体育器材。课间玩耍不打闹追逐，不爬围墙、爬树、爬走廊栏杆、攀校门等。上下楼梯靠右行，不在楼道玩耍，不在楼梯扶手上面滑到下面。不喝生水，不买无证小摊的食品，不吃过期或变质食品。不带利器及易燃易爆物品来校，不做危险游戏。注意用电安全，不乱摸乱动教室、走廊等公共场所的电器设备、开关、插座等。放学回家要按时离开学校直接回家，不要在教室、校园内逗留，也不要在街头游逛。上学、放学要遵守交通规则，过马路时看清来往车辆，要走人行横道。学生乘车一定要遵守交通法规，不乘坐不符合规定的车辆(如摩托车、三轮车、货动车等)，不乘坐超载车辆。

三、养成了课外阅读习惯：阅读不仅仅指课本，地是指课外读物，如童话、寓言、常识书籍等。阅读又可分默读、朗读、背诵等。默读是个人学习的最主要的方式，背诵是强化记忆和理解的一种学习的方式。

阅读课外书籍已成了我的习惯，别人都说我是爱读书的好孩子

[我是个爱阅读课外书籍的学生作文400字

if we have a book ,we will not be felling of being longly.

When Im free or in trouble, I always take out a book and read quietly. In no time, Ive put my heart into it so that Ill forget all the troubles. Its in this way that Ive formed the habit of reading in any time.

Little boys as I was, I was interest in picture books and storybooks. I was struck by them. No sooner had I entered the middle school than I began to read novel, plays, essays and so on. I found I could get much from them. Little by little I took great interest in literature and last term I won the first prize in the composition contest among middle-school students in Zhe Jiang.

Reading “The Emperors New Clothes”, I had to let out a burst of laughter over his fool. “The Little Match Girl” couldnt keep me from crying for her misery. “ Robinson Crusoe” took me into a strange world full of danger. And I was also deeply impressed by Helen Kellers patience and perseverance… Besides these, books also tell me other thing -how to be a man and how to tell the difference between right and wrong.

In a word, good books can make me know what I didnt before. So I think of a good book as my best friend.Ill never forget this famous saying,“ Good books are best friends who never turn their backs upon us.

现在，我们已经进入了信息时代，读书还象以前那么重要吗?

可能很多同学都会对这个问题感到迷惘，我的观点是，课外阅读的重要性是毋庸置疑的。

互联网是我们获取信息的一个重要手段，但是，互联网代替不了读书。

读书可以充实我们的思想，可以丰富我们的情感，可以教给我们本领，可以纠正我们的过失，在书籍中，你可以真切地感受到生活原本是如此地美好!

也许有人会说，现实社会中，有许多的大老板，大富翁都不读书，不是照样发大财、赚大钱，那么，我们读书又有什么意义呢?

此话差矣，的的确确，现实社会中，有许多的大老板、大富翁不读书，发了大财，赚了大钱，但是，我们也应该反思一下，在我国的众多私人企业中，有多少能够与国外的百年老店如可口可乐、埃克森石油、杜邦化工、IBM、通用电气等世界著名的大公司、大企业相提并论呢?相反，在我国短命、失败的私人企业多的不可胜数，我们的大老板、大富翁，他们所缺乏的是什么呢?

据说，世界首富，比尔·盖茨，每天都要抽出一小时来读书，世界首富都如此重视读书，更何况我们这些离世界首富相差很远、很远的人呢，我们有什么理由轻视读书呢?

但是，现实中，确实有一些读书人，死读书，不解决实际问题，成了书呆子，这样的读书，不是我们所要提倡的。我认为，与其说不解决任何实际问题，一味地死读书，还不如不读书的好。

正确的读书方法，也许应该是，在思想上要重视读书，要在有选择的前堤下读好书，时间上对读书要给予保证，但我们也要勇敢地走出书本，勇于在实践中，去探索、去发现，去解决实际的问题，只有这样，我们读书的价值才能得到真正的体现，我们的读书行为才能真正得到社会的认可。

是否可以这样说，理论联系实际的读书，才是有意义的读书?

同学们，您是如何看待读书的呢?

Covering Ones Ears While Stealing a Bell

掩耳盗铃

Mr. Wang thinks he is clever, but he always does [en]foolish

things.[/en]

王先生总以为自己很聪明，实际上他总干傻事。

One day he sees a beautiful bell at the top of a door. "Oh! How nice! I will take it home." He thinks, "What can I do?" After a while he has a "good" idea. "Aha! I have an idea now. I can plug my ears. Then I will not hear the ring when I take off the bell."

一天，他看见一户人家的门头有个很漂亮的铃铛。"啊，真漂亮啊!我要把它拿回家去。"他自言自语道："我该怎么做呢?"过了一会儿他想到了一个"好"主意。"啊哈!我有办法了!我把耳朵堵上，拿铃铛的时候就听不见铃声了。"

Then he does so. But as soon as he takes off the bell, the owner opens the door. "What are you doing?" the owner says angrily.

于是他就这样做了。可是他刚拿下铃铛，屋子的主人就打开门，怒气冲冲地说："你在干什么?"

【成语来源】

At the time when Fan, a nobleman of the state of Jin, became a fugitive, a commoner found a bell and wanted to carry it off on his back.

春秋时侯，晋国贵族智伯灭掉了范氏。有人趁机跑到范氏家里想偷点东西，看见院子里吊着一口大钟。钟是用上等青铜铸成的，造型和图案都很精美。小偷心里高兴极了，想把这口精美的大钟背回自已家去。

But the bell was too big for him.

可是钟又大又重，怎么也挪不动。

[/en]When he tried to knock it into pieces with a hammer there was a loud clanging sound. [/en]

他想来想去，只有一个办法，那就是把钟敲碎，然后再分别搬回家。小偷找来一把大锤，拼命朝钟砸去，咣的一声巨响，把他吓了一大跳。

He was afraid that someone will hear the noise and take the bell from him, so he immediately stopped his own ears.

小偷着慌，心想这下糟了，这种声不就等于是告诉人们我正在这里偷钟吗?他越听越害怕，不同自由地抽回双手，使劲捂住自已的耳朵。

To worry about other people hearing the noise is understandable, but to worry about himself hearing the noise (as if stopping his own ears would prevent other people from hearing) is absurd.

“咦，钟声变小了，听不见了!”小偷高兴起来，“妙极了!把耳朵捂住不住就听不进钟声了吗!”他立刻找来两个布团，把耳朵塞住，心想，这下谁也听不见钟声了。于是就放手砸起钟来，一下一下，钟声响亮地传到很远的地方。人们听到钟声蜂拥而至把小偷捉住了。

In order to keep fit, some teenagers ignore breakfast, they think the less they eat, the fitter they become. It is totally wrong idea, the doctor says in the newspaper that breakfast is very important for people’s health, in the morning, people need energy, after a night’s sleeping, the stomach is empty. So if not filling breakfast, people’s body will get weaker. We can eat less food in lunch and dinner, but not in breakfast. It is said that some will get fat if they don’t have breakfast, because the diet is not balanced, the body takes in more than what they need. So in order to keep fit, we should have breakfast.

【参考译文】

为了保持健美，一些青少年忽略早餐，他们认为吃得越少，越健美。这是完全错误的观念，医生在报纸上宣称早餐对人的健康很重要，早上，人们需要能量，经过了一晚的睡眠，胃变得空荡。所以如果不吃早餐，人们的身体就会变得虚弱。我们可以在午餐和晚餐少吃点，但是早餐要吃。据说，一些人如果不吃早餐会变胖，因为饮食不平衡，身体吸收的会超过所需的。所以为了保持健康，我们应该吃早餐。

In the English Reading Week, one of my classmates recommended a quote to us, which goes like this: “Your future depends on many things, but mostly on you.”

在英语阅读周，我的一个同学推荐了一个报价给我们，这是这样的：“你的未来取决于许多事情，但主要是在你。”

As far as I’m concerned, I completely agree with the view. Of course, our future depends on many things such as our living environment, opportunities, luck, others’ help and etc. But it is we ourselves that determine our future. Our positive attitude, our determination, our confidence and our sense of discipline are the keys to our future.

就我而言，我完全同意这一观点。当然，我们的未来取决于我们的生活环境、机会、运气、别人的帮助等，但我们自己决定了我们的未来。我们积极的态度、决心、信心和纪律是我们未来的关键。

Madame Curie was a good example to us. In her times, women were not admitted to university in her motherland, Poland, so she was forced to leave her homeland and studied in France. She often said: we should believe every one of us can do something and above all we should believe in ourselves. It was her confidence that made her discover radium and later win the Nobel Prize. So I firmly hold the belief that our future is in our hands.

居里夫人是我们的好榜样。在她的时代，妇女在她的祖国，波兰不承认，所以她被迫离开她的祖国，在法国学习。她常说：“我们应该相信我们每个人都能做些什么，首先我们应该相信自己。是她的信心，使她发现镭，后来赢得了诺贝尔奖。所以我坚信我们的未来是在我们手中。

Some people think that opportunities result from luck.They think that it occurs randomly and are being given to people for no reason.Some think that there is no such thing as an opportunity,and that everything gained by a person must be done through hard work.But it is undeniable that opportunities are very important.They are like the extra step-up that puts you above the rest of the crowd should you be lucky enough to get it.I believe that opportunities are indeed fate; however,only those who are well prepared can grasp the opportunity given to them and make a change to their lives.

In the busy city of New York, such an astonishing thing that ever happened.

On a Friday night, a poor young artist stood at the gate of the subway station, playing his violin. Though the music was great, people were quickly going home for the weekend. In this case, many of them slowed down their paces and put some money into the hat of the young man.

The next day, the young artist came to the gate of the subway station, and put his hat on the ground gracefully. Different than the day before, he took out a large piece of paper and laid it on the ground and put some stones on it. Then he adjusted the violin and began playing. It seemed more pleasant to listen to.

Before long, the young violinist was surrounded with people, who were all attracted by the words on that paper. It said, “Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat by mistaken. Please come to claim it soon.”

Seeing this, it caused a great excitement and people wondered what it could be. After about half an hour, a middle-aged man ran there in a hurry and rushed through the crowd to the violinist and grabbed his shoulders and said, “Yes, it’s you. You did come here. I knew that you’re an honest man and would certainly come here.”

The young violinist asked calmly, “Are you Mr. George Sang?”

The man nodded. The violinist asked, “Did you lose something?”

“Lottery. It’s lottery,” said the man.

The violinist took out a lottery ticket on which George Sang’s name was seen. “Is it?” he asked.

George nodded promptly and seized the lottery ticket and kissed it, then he danced with the violinist.

The story turned out to be this: George Sang is an office clerk. He bought a lottery ticket issued by a bank a few days ago. The awards opened yesterday and he won a prize of $500,000. So he felt very happy after work and felt the music was so wonderful, that he took out 50 dollars and put in the hat. However the lottery ticket was also thrown in. The violinist was a student at an Arts College and had planned to attend advanced studies in Vienna. He had booked the ticket and would fly that morning. However when he was cleaning up he found the lottery ticket. Thinking that the owner would return to look for it, he cancelled the flight and came back to where he was given the lottery ticket.

Later someone asked the violinist: “At that time you were in needed to pay the tuition fee and you had to play the violin in the subway station every day to make the money. Then why didn’t you take the lottery ticket for yourself?”

The violinist said, “Although I don’t have much money, I live happily; but if I lose honesty I won’t be happy forever.”

Through our lives, we can gain a lot and lose so much. But being honest should always be with us. If we bear ourselves in a deceptive and dishonest way, we may succeed temporarily. However, from the long-term view, we will be a loser. Such kind of people are just like the water on the mountain. It stands high above the masses at the beginning, but gradually it comes down inch by inch and loses the chance of going up.
