初中二年级英语作文：我最喜欢的节日（春节）

My Favourite Festival

There are many traditional festivals in China. My favourite festival is the Spring Festival. It is a very important festival for Chinese. Before the festival, people will go to visit their relatives and friends. They usually have a big dinner together and give best wishes to each other. Most children in China love this festival because they can play fireworks and lucky money from their parents and relatives.

May Day is coming, it is my bad day. Mother again and again, again and again said to me: "you should labor labor, labor day dont rock the boat at home."

And I dont take it seriously, everywhere to beat at home. Mother saw it, and cried: you dont rock the boat here, give me sweep the floor! so I just casually to sweep up, my left and a right swing, in a short time is just like my mom said to me he was finished. Mother saw the dust of the ground, angry criticism way: "do you still like this, nothing. You still washing clothes!" I was puzzled: "why always let me do the housework? Forget it, forget it, is it not washing clothes, washing." The same careless I wash up, clothes are dirty! Wash is about the same. Im beat!

Mother saw the clothes, do a piece of a piece of stains, crestfallen said: "you still cant change the bad habits, forget it, you play go!" "Bad habits? Is there?" I keep thinking, suddenly enlighted, originally the live mother do every day, and a bitter didnt shout, I so long to do once, complained bitterly. Mother is really hard!

五一劳动节来了，又是我的倒霉日子了。妈妈再三再四的跟我说：“劳动节你应该劳动劳动，不要在家里捣乱。”

而我却不把这件事当回事，到处在家里打打闹闹。妈妈看见了，大声叫道：‘’你别在这儿捣乱了，给我扫地去!‘’于是我就漫不经心地扫起地来，我左挥一下右挥一下，不一会儿就跟我妈妈说到我扫完了。妈妈看见了地上的灰尘，生气的批评道：“你还是这个样子，做什么事都不用心。你还是洗衣服吧!”我心里疑惑不解：“干吗总让我做家务?算了，算了，不就是洗衣服么，洗完就可以了。”我同样是漫不经心的洗起来，衣服真脏啊!洗洗就差不多了。真是累死我了!

妈妈又看见衣服上的污渍做一块有一块，垂头丧气的说：“你还是改不了这个坏毛病，算了，你玩儿你的去吧!”“坏毛病?有吗?”我反复思考起来，恍然大悟起来，原来这些活妈妈每天都做，而且一声苦都没喊，我这么长时间才做一次，就叫苦连天。妈妈真是辛苦啊!

英语节开幕啦！同学们奔走相告。

星期一上午，在学校操场上举行了我们翠苑二小“2014年英语节”的开幕式。开幕式上有十多个同学用英语表演了《丑小鸭》。我班的戴潇雨同学担任了狐狸的角色。他戴了一顶红色的画着狐狸面孔的帽子，形象特逼真，太搞笑了。小戴同学平时就蛮可爱的，这样一打扮就更加可爱了。还有那四只小鸭子，屁股一扭一扭的，个个挺搞笑。

后来我们班的同学们还当了一回英语老师，我们班教了二（1）班的小朋友每人一句英文句子。我的“学生”叫张勇毅，我教了他一句还有些难的句子：Yes，itis。Heisafoot-ballplayer。（是的，他是一位足球运动员）。他很聪明，只用了大概五分钟就学会了。

中午，我和吴昊天同学一起在广播室教全校同学一首英语歌《雪绒花》。刚开始，我有点儿紧张，但后来就慢慢放松了。当我慢慢进入状态时，英语老师告诉我结束的时间快到了，于是整首歌曲就没有教完，有些遗憾。接下来的几天，每天都有同学在广播室教全校同学英语歌曲，大家都学得很开心。

今年的英语节虽然结束了，但我还会和我的二十六个字母小伙伴做永远的朋友。

I think nearly everyone likes traveling. Sometimes we will travel with our

friends or families, but sometimes we will travel alone. I believe different

ways for traveling will have different feelings. And I prefer travelling alone.

Travelling alone is more excited. Just imagine, you go to a beautiful place, but

you have never gone there before, so you have to deal all the things by

yourself. It is very adventure, right? In addition, travelling alone can avoid

many conflicts that will have when travelling in group. Last, watching the same

scenery by yourself or with many people will have different feelings. Therefore,

sometimes you can think about traveling alone. It is good.

May Day that day, I meet my brother and younger brother to play in the riverside wetland park. Im very glad to get off when Im singing while jumping down.

The green reeds sway in the wind, as if to welcome us; There were a few wild duck in the reeds, swam to busy to catch fish and shrimp eat; Little dragonfly fly tired, fell on the reeds, pointed to rest!

The park is really fun, we had a happy May Day.

五一节这天，我相约哥哥和弟弟去滨河湿地公园玩。我非常高兴，下车时我是一边哼着歌一边蹦下去的。

公园里的人真多哪!有的放风筝、有的在水边玩耍、还有的观赏风景。我最喜欢的就是芦苇荡。绿油油的芦苇荡随风摇摆，好像是在欢迎我们的到来;还有几只野鸭在芦苇丛中游来游去，正忙着捉鱼虾吃;小蜻蜓飞累了，落在芦苇尖上休息呢!

公园里可真好玩，我们过了个快乐的五一节。

There is a legend about the origin of the lucky money.

Once upon a time, there was a little monster called "chong" who came to the world on the eve of the great New Year. It came to the head of the sleeping child and touched it, and the child began to cry aloud, and when he woke up, he began to talk.

Then all these clever children became fools, and only knew how to play madly every day. "Chong" is afraid of bright light, therefore, people on the night of every big year, all lights, keep at the childrens side, dare not sleep, this is called "shouchong".

There was an old couple who got a child when they were very old. On the evening of the great New Year, the couple lit candles and stood by their children. Suddenly a gust of wind blew and the candle went out. "Chonghu" floated to the childs head, ready to touch, under the pillow under the red envelope flashing a bright red light.

"Chong" cried, and ran away. The next day, the couple handed out red envelopes to their children and told them what had scared them away.

It turned out that the eight copper COINS had become a fairy, and he was secretly helping the children.

Tell such a story you know the origin of the lucky money! On the evening of the big year, children will receive red envelopes from their elders, which represents the wishes of the elders.

今天是一个辞旧迎新的日子，大年三十，这一天，我爸爸妈妈，一大早便来到大伯家，正好我的妹妹和弟弟也来了，我的妹妹只有两岁。特别喜欢看动画片《小猪佩奇》，而弟弟已经八岁，我和弟弟有时带着妹妹一起玩儿，有时则自己玩儿自己的，他们是随着大伯大妈回来的，大伯大妈常年在云南工作，两年才回来一次。这次来大伯家的时候，弟弟看见我，话便像关不住的洪水一样涌了出来，不断的向我述说两年来发生的事，逗得我哈哈直笑。

我们又玩了一会儿，该吃团年饭了，吃饭时，我们相互敬酒、祝福，场面热闹极了。

不知不觉中，已经八点了，春晚开始了，我们看的津津有味，不时鼓掌喝彩，不时又为杂技演员捏了一把汗，每当演员表演小品时，那演技的精湛常常使我纵声大笑，而我那两岁的妹妹脸上也跟着露出了一丝笑意，例如当李经理的助理说李经理是“齐天大剩”时，笑声瞬间溢满了整个房屋。

这一次的大年三十很有意思，我要把它记在我的日记本上！

There’s people who are great singers that don’t have good sounding voices (think Dylan, or even Bruce) and people who have great voices but aren’t technically good singers (think Mariah Carey–her phrasing is abysmal). Now, there are a few singers that have good voices *and* are good technical singers–and these are the people that there is general agreement on. You make a list of these people as “great singers” and you generally don’t get much argument. Marvin Gaye, Elvis, Paul McCartney, David Ruffin of the Temptations, Kate Bush, (to get out of rock a bit) Sinatra..

That’s a few of them. Anyone that tries to tell you that Marvin Gaye couldn’t sing doesn’t know anything about singing.

Live in the dense forest, many small animals. Every spring they hold a grand acrobatics competition. This years competition is very busy, small animals came to the venue early and took out his magic sauce.

First of all, beautiful peacock dances: he head high head, chest, belly on tail slowly, gently shake the feathers; His head from time to time is to the east, west, the fan tail like a gorgeous colorful dress, and tightly attracted the audiences eyes.

Wood ball turning around, but he firmly when local, not nervous. You see, his right hand on the waist, left hand waving to the crowd. His wonderful performance won applause...

The annual acrobatics competition ended, but the animals good show, for a long, long time also by forest residents are talking about.

茂密的森林里，生活着许多小动物。他们每到春天都要举办一次盛大的杂技比赛。今年的比赛更是热闹非凡，小动物们早早来到会场，纷纷拿出自己的绝活儿。

首先，漂亮的孔雀表演舞蹈：他昂着头、挺着胸，慢慢地展开尾巴，轻轻抖动着羽毛;他的头时而摆向东、时而摇向西，那条扇子似的尾巴像一件绚丽的七彩衣，紧紧 吸引着观众的眼神。

接着，小狗表演 荡秋千。只见他纵身一跃，跳到秋千上，双手紧紧抓住绳子。他先是轻轻地荡了几个来回，然后就使足劲，直冲云宵，他高超的动作看得人眼花缭乱。

最精彩的要数黑熊踩木球了。笨重的黑熊小心翼翼地站在木球上面的木板上，双脚左右来回摆动以保持平衡。木球转动着，他却稳稳当当地、丝毫不紧张。你看，他右手插在腰上，左手挥舞着向观众致敬。他精彩的表演博得阵阵掌声……

一年一度的杂技比赛结束了，但动物们精彩的表演，很久很久还被森林的居民们谈论着。

今天的英语课不同往常，因为我们要迎接一位新朋友———圣诞老人。

第一节下课时，杨老师对我们说：“下节课将有一位圣诞老人参与到我们的课堂中来，与大家一起上课，并且给你们发礼物。但是我们要用英语跟他对话。”说着，便给我们每人发了一顶圣诞帽。

上课铃一响，正当同学们安静地等候时，“圣诞老人”大摇大摆地走进了教室。

我一看惊呆了，仿佛站在我眼前的就是真正的圣诞老人。他与书上描述的圣诞老人很相似。又浓又白的长胡子，头上戴着一顶高高的圣诞帽，挺着一个大肚子，穿着一件红色大衣，腰上系着一根黑色腰带，脚蹬一双黑色的短靴。

我们按杨老师的要求：先跟他用英语“hello，how are you！”打了招呼。圣诞老人说：“thank you！ ”我们接着又唱起了圣诞歌曲。

圣诞老人笑眯眯地望着我们，从前到后，边走边给大家发着糖。我幸运地分到了一颗水蜜桃味的棒棒糖，这是我最爱吃的口味。我们各自热情地和圣诞老人握了手。当糖全部分完时，我们又与圣诞老人来了一次大拥抱，教室里一片沸腾，同学们开心极了！有的拉住圣诞老人的胳膊；有的报着圣诞老人的腿；还有的爬在圣诞老人的背上……就连坐在旁边的杨老师也笑得前俯后仰。

今天的英语课太有趣了，让我们零距离地认识了“圣诞老人”。

今天上午的英语课，我们整个四（2）班都充满了欢声笑语。

叮铃铃叮铃铃，上课铃响了，我们像往常一样安静地坐在座位上，顾老师来的时候发现我们闷闷不乐的，便说：“现在，每人开一个小玩笑。先从吴高雪开始。”于是我们一个接着一个开了一个又一个玩笑，结束时，全班都已经捧腹大笑。顾老师这才开始给我们上课，还说：“我们上课要开心，这样才能学的进去，不能哭丧着脸哦！”我们赞许地点了点头。

瞧，已经到了英语小表演的时候了，顾韩羽小组上去表演夏天时做的一些事。顾韩羽表演“夏天很热”的样子，他为了表演的更精彩，竟不顾冬天的寒冷，把外套和毛衣都脱了，只剩下一件衬衫，因此，顾老师给予了顾韩羽“表演家”这个称号，还让我们下课找他签名呢！只可惜他的字写的一般，不然的话，他的“粉丝”们肯定为了要他的签名而把他围的水泄不通的。

今天的英语课真有趣啊！

In China, another important festival is Mid-autumn Day.It is on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month.It is time for family getting together. On that night the moon is brighter and fuller than any other night. .I love it very much. Because on that day ,our families will stay outside in the open air to eat a big dinner and moon cakes.

Write and tell me something about your festivals.

Moon Festival The Moon Festival or Mid -autumn Festival is one of the three major traditional festivals celebrated by Chinese people. Like harvest time in other countries, the Mid-autumn Festival actually began as a thanksgiving celebration, honoring the Soil God and the Crop God. This is also a time for family reunions. Chinese people enjoy moon cakes during this feast just as they eat rice dumplings for the Dragon Boat Festival. It is quite appropriate to bring moon cakes with you in token of festival greetings when calling on people during this season.

The Mid-Autumn Day

August 15th in Chinese Lunar Calendar is the Mid-Autumn Day. It is one of the most important traditional festivals in China.

On that day people usually go back home to have family reunion. Each family will have the members get together to have a big dinner. The most popular food is moon cakes. They are round and look like the moon.

The moon is the brightest this night. People ate the delicious food while they were enjoying a beautiful full moon in their yard.

中秋节是立秋以后的第一个节日,是人们庆祝丰收的日子,洽逢十五月圆人团圆,因此中秋节对于华人来讲也象征着团圆.在这个丰收与团圆的日子里,人们会与家人团聚在满月下,享用辛勤劳动的成果;当满月升起的时侯,人们会在在贡桌上摆上丰盛的水果和月饼,一方面感恩上天赐予人们丰收的果实,另一方面祈祷来年风调雨顺.就像火鸡象征西方感恩节一样,月饼象征着中国中秋节.

Dont Waste Water

A man is washing his clothes, regardless of the notice above "Save the Water Please."

As we see ,water is the source of life. But there is a very limited available water resource in our world. So we shouldnt waste it. Of course, we have to use it to drink, cook, wash, clean and etc. But we must remember not to use it extravagantly. If we didnt stop such wasteful habits, we would cut off the development of the world and the human life.

今天我们又一次的来到了暑假的英语班开始了，既充实又好玩的英语课。

12点半我们乘车出发啊，空调车真凉快啊，车外的人在烈日炎炎下行走，怎么能受得了啊？下了车我才知道车里车外分别是两个世界，一个32度的中午把大地都晒出了热浪，仿佛把一个鸡蛋放在地上都能烤熟了。

好不容易“活着”走到了补习班，一进门，我才发现原来教室开空调了，在夏天空调，真的是我们的救星啊，老师让我交作业，我在手提包里找来找去结果一个作业本的影子都没找到，还好我们的老师是一个既可爱又迷人还仁慈的老师，她让我们下次一并交给她，结果我们另一个老师在批另一个作业时发火了，因为我们有些同学连基本的题目都做错，连我们可爱又迷人的老师也挨骂了，结果提前十分钟上课。听老师讲课时，我哈气连天也不知道怎么回事，24度的空调竟会这么热。

开始听写了，我刚松懈的身子又开始警戒起来，三分钟后我的身子全身冰凉，手上全无知觉，因为我感觉我考砸了，又开始上外教课了，外教是个黑人男老师，讲课生动有趣，我非常喜欢上他的课。结果这次我还考的异常地好。

一天愉快的下午很快地过去了。

Dear Carl，

I am happy to know that you are getting along well with your Chinese.Its quite natural that you should have difficulties with Chinese idioms, because their meanings are so much different from their apparent meanings.

The original meaning of the idiom attached is that when the shepherd found his sheep missing because of the broken sheepfold , he was advised to mend it in time.Today, the moral of the idiom is that when you make a mistake and do something wrong, you should correct it as soon as possible.It is somewhat equal to an English phrase “Late better than never”.For example, you can use the idiom to encourage your friend to work harder to make up the time he has wasted.Hope you will make more progress!

Best regards!

Yours，

Li Hua

TheDragonBoatFestivalis a lunar (阴历)holiday， occurring (存正)on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month (农历史五月第五天) The Chinese Dragon Boat Festival is a significant (有意义的)holiday celebrated (庆祝)in China，and the one with the longest history (历史最悠久)。 The Dragon Boat Festival is celebrated by boat races (龙舟赛) in the shape of dragons. Competing teams (竞争团队) row their boats forward to a drumbeat (击古)racing to reach the finish end first. The boat races during the Dragon Boat Festival are traditional customs(传统习俗)to attempts to (试图)rescue (搭救) the patriotic poet (爱国诗人)Chu Yuan. Chu Yuan drowned (溺死) on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month in 277 B.C. Chinese citizens now throw bamboo leaves (竹叶) filled with cooked rice into the water. Therefore the fish could eat the rice rather than the hero poet. This later on turned into the custom

of eating tzungtzu and rice dumplings(棕子)。 The celebration is a time for protection (防护) from evil(邪恶)and disease (疾病) for the rest of the year. It is done so by different practices such as hanging healthy herbs on the front door， drinking nutritious concoctions (营养品)， and displaying (展示) portraits (画像) of evils nemesis(邪恶报应)，Chung Kuei. If one manages to (成功做„„) stand (直立)an egg on its end at exactly 12：00 noon， the following year will be a lucky one.

每个周六的上午，都是我最开心的时候，因为又可以上有趣的英语课啦！

今天的英语课上到一半的时候，Cathy老师笑眯眯地对大家说：“谁可以上来表演一下第2单元的课文角色？”我们一听，都纷纷把手举得高高的。虽然我很荣幸地被Cathy老师选上了，但是我又很担心自己背不出来，于是，我心里暗暗想着：“我是最棒的，我一定会扮演好的。”

我上了台，深深地吸了一口气，立马镇定下来了。我扮演monkey（猴子），我说：“Lookatmyblueleg。”同学扮演dog（狗），说：“Lookatmygreenmouth。”就这样，我们一个接一个地往下表演，往下说……

表演结束了，Cathy老师和同学们一起为我们鼓掌。果然，我做到了，我们用英语对话，把角色扮演得很好。我开心地看着Cathy老师，这时候，她的脸上更是笑成了一朵花。

Cathy老师的方法真不错，不仅让我们进一步理解了课文，又吸引了我们学英语的兴趣，同时还鼓励了我们大胆地用英语表达。

这就是我最喜欢的有趣的英语课，你们想不想也来参加呀？
