[中考英语作文:My birthday

每年的端午节我们都要吃粽子、赛龙舟、悬艾叶、我最喜欢看赛龙舟的比赛了，这比赛并不是为了争谁第一水第二，是为了在观众面前展示他们娴熟的技能与美好的姿态。

We will eat dumplings, dragon boat race, hanging mugwort leaf, the annual Dragon Boat Festival, I most like to watch dragon boat racing game, the game is not to argue over who first water second, in order to demonstrate their skills and good attitude in front of the audience.

我先来说说粽子吧。粽子是用墨绿色的芦叶包裹着糯米和枣子。煮熟后，剥开芦叶，只见米团里仿佛镶着几颗深红油亮的玛瑙，很好看。粽子的的味道美极了，芦叶散发着清香，咬一口粽子，甜而不腻。

Let me first talk about dumplings. Dumplings are made of dark green reed leaf wrapped glutinous rice and dates. Cooked, peeled reed leaves, I saw the M group with a few red and shiny like agate, very nice. Dumplings are delicious, reed leaf fragrance, a bite of rice dumplings, sweet but not greasy.

粽子还有一个悠久的故事。传说吃粽子是为了纪念古代诗人屈原。屈原一生写过许多着名的诗篇，提出过许多爱国的政治主张，但是君王不采纳。后来君王沦丧，他满怀忧愤跳江自尽。人民还念他，崇敬他。两千多年来，人们把粽子投入江中，当做献给诗人的祭品。——这就是粽子的由来。是的，每逢端午节，人们怎么会忘记伟大的诗人屈原呢?

Rice also had a long story. Legend eat dumplings is to commemorate the ancient poet Qu Yuan. Throughout his life Qu Yuan wrote many famous poems, put forward many patriotic political views, but the king does not accept. Then the king had fallen, he was full of anger jumped into the river. People miss him, worship him. Over the past two thousand years, people threw rice dumplings into the river, as for poets. -- this is the origin of rice dumplings. Yes, during the Dragon Boat Festival, how can people forget the great poet Qu Yuan?

民谚说：“清明插柳，端午插艾”。在端午节，人们把插艾和菖蒲作为重要内容之一。家家都洒扫庭除，以菖蒲、艾条插于门眉，悬于堂中。并用菖蒲、艾叶、榴花、蒜头、龙船花，制成人形或虎形，称为艾人、艾虎;制成花环、佩饰，美丽芬芳，妇人争相佩戴，用以驱瘴。

Proverb said: "Ching Ming inserted Liu, Dragon Boat inserted AI". During the Dragon Boat Festival, people put the mugwort and calamus as one of important content. Everybody sasao addition, calamus, AI inserted in the door eyebrow, hanging in the hall. And calamus, Wormwood Leaves, pomegranate, garlic, Ixora, make humanoid or tiger shaped, called AI, Ai Hu; made garlands, accessories, beauty and fragrance, woman eager to wear, to drive malaria.

艾，又名家艾、艾蒿。它的茎、叶都含有挥发性芳香油。它所产生的奇特芳香，可驱蚊蝇、虫蚁，净化空气。中医学上以艾入药，有理气血、暖子宫、祛寒湿的功能。将艾叶加工成“艾绒”，是灸法治病的重要药材。

Ai Ai, and famous expert, mugwort. It stems, leaves contain volatile aromatic oil. It produces strange aroma, mosquitoes flies, ants, air purification. Traditional Chinese medicine with AI medicine, rational Qi and blood, warm uterus, dispelling dampness function. The leaves will be processed into moxa ", is an important medicinal moxibustion treatment.

中国的传统文化像天上的星星数也数不清，有过年的倒福、中秋节、还有端午节，现在我就给你介绍一下端午节。

China traditional culture such as the number of stars in the sky are innumerable, but there have the Spring Festival Fu, the Mid Autumn Festival, there are Dragon Boat Festival, now I will introduce you to the Dragon Boat festival.

传说楚国的皇上是一个昏君，只顾吃喝玩乐，屈原却说无效就投江自尽了，他投江时候还抱着一块巨大的石头，因为这样他一下江就沉下去，在也上不来了。

The legend of Chus emperor is a king, just idle away in seeking pleasure, Qu Yuan said not drowned himself in the river, when he threw jiang also hold a large stone, because of this he Jiang on the sink, in has not.

屈原投江以后两岸的老百姓划龙舟去救屈原，人们把江都找遍了，但是还是没有找到屈原的尸体。在这个紧张危险的时候，突然有一位百姓站出来，他说我们就不了屈原不要紧张，我们可以丢鱼和虾爱吃的东西比如：粽子、雄黄酒、蛋等东西去江里......

Qu Yuan after the two sides of the river dragon boat people to save Qu Yuan, Jiangdu people have searched, but did not find the body of Qu Yuan. In this tense and dangerous when, suddenly there is a people stand out, he said we cant Qu Yuan do not be nervous, we can throw the fish and shrimp to eat things such as: zongzi, eggs, the male Yellow Wine things to the river......

从此，人们把这一天作为端午节，人们一到端午节就划龙舟、吃粽子、喝雄黄酒等......

From then on, people regard this day as the Dragon Boat Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival is for people to eat dumplings, dragon boat racing, drinking realgar Yellow Wine etc.......

时间慢慢长久了,传统文化也慢慢流传下来.

Time for a long time, the traditional culture is handed down slowly.

端午节到了，我也学会了包粽子，你会包粽子吗?不会就请跟我学吧!

The Dragon Boat Festival, I also learned dumplings dumplings, will you? Dont follow me!

我们一家三口到了奶奶家，奶奶、妈妈和我包粽子，奶奶已经把糯米泡好了，奶奶说要多泡一段时间，粘性才大。你想吃什么馅的?比如：豆沙、蜜枣、小枣等。我喜欢吃蜜枣馅的，奶奶把芦苇叶弄平，再把糯米、蜜枣放到芦苇叶上，把它们包在一起，然后用线绑起来。奶奶动作非常快，因为奶奶以前包过粽子，所以她很熟练的包完了一个粽子。可是糯米可不听我的话了，它总是从芦苇叶的缝儿钻出来，我费了九牛二虎之力才包完了一个粽子，但粽子的形状不像奶奶包的那么好看。奶奶鼓励我说：“不错了!”我又有了些信心，接着，奶奶又教我包了第二个、第三个粽子，比第一个包的好了许多。

We are a family of three to the grandmother, grandmother, mother and I package dumplings, grandma is glutinous rice cooked, grandma said to soak for a period of time, viscosity high. What do you want to eat stuffing? For example, bean paste, jujube, jujube and so on.

Grandma said: "good!" I have some confidence, then, my grandmother taught me to pack second, third than the first packet dumplings, a lot of good.

奶奶点火煮粽子，过了一会儿，我就闻到了粽子的香味。我想：再过一会儿，我就能吃到自己做的粽子了!我坐在旁边等着粽子出锅。

Grandma ignition boiled dumplings, after a while, I smell the fragrance of zongzi. I think: after a while, I can eat to make their own dumplings! I sat next to the waiting dumplings pan.

“吃粽子喽!”我带着欢乐的喜悦，来到餐桌旁，“啊!”粽子的香味让我陶醉了，我包开了一个粽子，咬了一口，又香又甜，我们一家人品尝着美味的粽子。

Eat rice dumplings "myself!" I with joy joy, came to the table, "ah!" Dumplings fragrance makes me intoxicated, I opened a rice dumplings, bite, sweet, we are one family to taste the delicious dumplings.

中考英语试卷写作的分数各个省市有所不同，一般在15-20分之间。下面从阅卷老师的角度分析一下中考英语作文的得分点和扣分点。2.字数：少于60字的作文要酌情扣分。中考英语作文要求60字以上，标点符号不算，少了就要扣分。

中考英语试卷写作的分数各个省市有所不同，一般在15-20分之间。下面从阅卷老师的角度分析一下中考英语作文的得分点和扣分点。

中考英语作文对考生的要求有四点：1、内容要完整。 2、语句流畅。3、没有语法错误。4、书写规范。能达到上述要求的作文，都会得到相应的高分。

一：先看一下扣分点：

1.内容方面：要点缺失，可酌情扣分。比如中考作文“I want to do something for my school”，若没有写一件具体的事情，是要扣3分以上的;若写的事情太过于虚幻，没有实际内容，也会扣1-2分。

2.字数：少于60字的作文要酌情扣分。

中考英语作文要求60字以上，标点符号不算，少了就要扣分。但是60字的作文能不能得高分?从我们拿到的实例作文来看，16分以上的作文，没有少于75字的，甚至少于80字的也少之又少。当然，也极少有超过100字的，因为中考试卷的短线格一共80个，在格子下面大约还有2行的空间，可以加20字左右，再多阅卷人就很难看清了，也会影响卷面的美观。所以，同学们如果想让作文得到高分，最好是让字数在75-100字之间。

3. 语法和拼写错误：每个扣0.5，重复错误不计;

4. 标点错误：每4个扣0.5.

二：加分点

除了这些扣分点，还有一些得分点：比如说作文的组织结构分，就是根据学生使用复杂句型、单词和谚语、俗语的情况来加分。

只要文章中有1个亮点，基本就可以争取到1分(3分的文采分是很难全部拿到的)。而这1分的亮点，是可以提前准备的。例如，有一些“万金油”式的复杂句型，例如强调句型、only相关的倒装句等，只要同学们多操练几次，几乎是一定能用到作文当中，从而为自己争取到这1分。

其次就是卷面分

很多家长[微博]和同学，尤其是部分书法并不是十分整洁的同学，都会关心是否真的有“卷面分”的存在。虽然在阅卷标准里面并没有卷面分这一项，但是这个分数却真切地反映在了同学们的分数里面。

据阅卷老师的经验，在阅卷的时候并不是按这3个部分逐项打分的，而是在第一遍读完全文之后，心里已经形成了一个“印象分”，然后再细读第二、三遍，把印象分分配到各个打分部分。因此，这个“印象分”就非常重要，而同学们的书法，也正是在这个环节，影响到了自己的分数。所以初三的考生，如果书法不好，一定要注意。所谓的书法并不需要写的很漂亮，符合3个简单的标准即可：没有斜体、没有连笔、涂改较少。

The Dragon Boat Festival， also called the Duanwu Festival， is celebrated on

the fifth day of the fifth month according to the Chinese calendar. This

festival is to commemorate the death of QU Yuan， an upright and honest poet and

statesman who is said to have committed suicide by drowning himself in a

river.

The most important activity of this festival is the Dragon Boat races. It

symbolizes people‘s attempts to rescue Qu Yuan. In the current period， these

races also demonstrate the virtues of cooperation and teamwork.

Besides， the festival has also been marked by eating zong zi (glutinous

rice). Zongzi is made of glutinous rice stuffed with different fillings and

wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves. People who mourned the death of Qu threw Zong

zi into the river to feed his ghost every year.

With the changes of the times， the memorial turns to be a time for

protection from evil and disease for the rest of year. People will hang healthy

herbs on the front door to clear the bad luck of the house. Although the

significance of the festival might be different with the past， it still gives

the observer an opportunity to glimpse a part of the rich Chinese cultural

heritage.

端午节，又称为端午节，定在第五个月的第五天据中国日历。这个节日是为了纪念屈原的死，一个忠厚老实的诗人和政治家据说在河流溺水自杀。

这个节日最重要的活动是龙舟竞赛。它象征着人们的努力救屈原。在当前时期，这些比赛也证明合作和团队合作的优点。

此外，节日还被吃的粽子(糯米)。粽子是糯米做的塞满了不同的馅料包在竹叶或芦苇叶。人哀悼屈原的死亡把粽子扔进河里喂他的鬼魂。

随着时代的变化，纪念转向防止邪恶和疾病是一个时间的。人们会把健康的草药挂在前门清理房子的坏运气。虽然这个节日的意义可能与过去不同，它仍然使观察者看到的机会丰富的中国文化遗产的一部分。

My mothers name is # # # , a forty-three-year-old businesswoman. She loves vegetables and fruits, because they can help to lose her weight. In addition, she likes animals very much, especially dogs because she thinks they are sensitive as well as cute. She likes watching TV except for the sports. She really likes going shopping although she doesnt have too much time.

My mother has got long, brown hair and pretty big eyes. She is really beautiful and looks very young. In life she is a very lovely woman always with a bright smile on her face. Of course, Shes also very outgoing and generous.

My mother has been very popular with her friends and customers, perhaps because she not only has a good temper but also such a helpful personality. All of her friends are willing to get along with her. But sometimes she is strict with me. I think the reason for that is that she wants me to study hard in order to get into a better university. In her free time, she always cleans up the house to create me a comfortable learning environment. I am constantly thinking about how to express my appreciation for what mother does for me. Maybe silence is the best key before my dreaming mansion is built.

I love my mother and may she be healthy and happy forever.

我的妈妈叫XXX，她是一个四十三岁的女商人。她喜欢吃蔬菜和水果，因为这样可以保持她的身材。另外，她非常喜欢小动物，特别是小狗，因为她觉得狗非常可爱和善解人意，她喜欢除体育节目之外的所有节目。她热衷逛街购物尽管没有太多时间。

我的妈妈有一头长长的棕色头发和一双炯炯有神的大眼睛，她看起来既美丽又年轻。生活中，她是一个脸上永远洋溢着灿烂微笑的可爱女人，当然，她人也很开朗大方。

我的妈妈深受她朋友们和顾客们的喜欢，不仅因为她和蔼可亲而且也由于她乐于助人的性格，她所有的朋友都乐意同她相处。但她对我有时很严厉，我想她这么做的原因是她希望我考上好大学而让我努力学习。在她的业余时间里，她常常打扫家里的卫生来为我创造更好的学习环境，我时常想到应该怎样报答她对我所做的一切，也许在我的理想大厦尚未建成之前，沉默便是最好的诉说。

我爱我的妈妈，我希望她永远健康幸福。

It is recently reported that some rivers and lakes have dried up in South China. A lot of fishes died. The bottoms of the rivers and lakes have become grass land. The water is becoming less and less because of the bad weather.

So everyone should do something to save our environment. First， we should save every drop of water， such as turning off the taps after using it and recycling the water. For example， we can water the plants and clean the rest room with our used water. Second， we should save energy， such as less turning on the lights and turning off the lights when we leave;Do more walking， more bicycling and less driving and so on. Third， we should ask our government to control the pollution from the factories.

Let’s act now from everything to save our environment. Don’t let our tears be the last drop of water in the world!

所以每个人都应该做些事情来拯救我们的环境。首先，我们应该节约每一滴水，如使用后关闭水龙头和回收水。例如，我们可以用我们用过的水给植物浇水和打扫休息室。第二，我们应该节约能源，比如我们离开时少开灯和关灯;多走路，多骑车，少开车等等。第三，我们应该要求政府控制工厂的污染。

让我们从一切行动来拯救我们的环境。不要让我们的眼泪成为世界上最后一滴水!

christmas, annual christian holiday commemorating the birth of jesus christ. most members of the roman catholic church and followers of protestantism celebrate christmas on december 25, and many celebrate on the evening of december 24 as well. members of the eastern orthodox church usually delay their most important seasonal ceremonies until january 6, when they celebrate epiphany, a commemoration of the baptism of jesus. epiphany also traditionally commemorates the arrival of the three wise men of the east in bethlehem (near jerusalem, israel), where they adored the infant jesus and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. the official christmas season, popularly known as either christmastide or the twelve days of christmas, extends from the anniversary of christ’s birth on december 25 to the feast of epiphany on january 6. christmas is based on the story of jesus’ birth as described in the gospel according to matthew (see matthew 1:18-2:12) and the gospel according to luke (see luke 1:26-56). roman catholics first celebrated christmas, then known as the feast of the nativity, as early as 336 ad. the word christmas entered the english language sometime around 1050 as the old english phrase christes maesse, meaning “festival of christ.” scholars believe the frequently used shortened form of christmas—xmas—may have come into use in the 13th century. the x stands for the greek letter chi, an abbreviation of khristos (christ), and also represents the cross on which jesus was crucified.
