关于初中生活的英语作文带翻译（优秀20篇）

I went to visit the Great Wall with my friends during the summer vacation.

We went there by bus. It took us about two hours to get there. It was hot and

windy that day. There were thousands of people. When we saw a group of

foreigners,we went up and talked with them. We told them lots of history of the

Great Wall. They were very surprised when they saw that our English were

exellent and we knew a lot about the Great Walls history. They thanked us a lot

and we really had a good time. We felt proud of ourselves and being Chinese.

我和我的朋友在夏令营期间去了长城，我们是乘汽车去的，经过两个小时才到的那儿。那天天气很热，风也很大，那里有很多很多的人，当我们看到一群外国人的时候，我们上去和他们攀谈。我们告诉他们很多关于长城的故事，他们非常惊讶我们的英语是如此的好，而且我们还懂那么多关于长城的故事。他们非常感谢我们，而我们也度过了愉快的一天。我们为自己是一名中国人而感到很自豪。

Mathematics was too difficult for me, the teacher spoke so fast that I

could not understand. I failed every math exam, my dad was very angry, he

wouldnt let me watch TV, or let me go out, I was very sad. The math teacher

always asks me to go to the office and tell me the problem. I am not afraid to

make mistakes, because I can correct them. I keep practicing, speed up my

problem, and dont forget to preview and review. In the most recent exam, I

achieved excellent results in maths. A good learner has many good learning

habits.

数学对我来说太难了，老师讲的太快，以至于我不能听懂。每次数学考试我都不及格，我的爸爸很生气，他不让我看电视，也不让我出去玩，我很难过。数学老师总是让我去办公室，给我讲题。我开始不害怕犯错，因为我还可以改正。我不断的练习，加快了我的做题速度，并且不忘记预习和复习。在最近的一次考试里，我的数学成绩达到了优秀。一个好的学习者有很多好的学习习惯。

校园，是陪伴我成长的地方，它代表的不单单只是学校而是“存放点点滴滴回忆”。幼儿园是学习的第一步；初中小是从小孩子蜕变成青少年的重要时光；高中大学是迈向新生活的开端，昔日小小的树苗，经过十几年太阳温暖的双手、雨水呵护的滋润，剎那之间，犹如白驹过隙，今日的它已长成一棵又高又大的大树，继续谱着校园里的青青校树；继续吹奏着那雄纠纠气昂昂的校歌。

校园座落在繁华城市的边陲，进入校园首先映入眼帘的是一栋栋大楼、一排排的自行车及一个个乖巧有礼貌的学生、老师，可别小看那几栋大楼，它可是从民国五十几年屹立不摇到今天，走过将近一甲子的时间，陪过无数个和我一样的初中生学习新知识，春风化雨，包括我爸爸，他总瞇着眼回忆：“操场旁的大树，从我小的时候，就一直矗立在那儿，陪着一群莘莘学子的成长，从我那个年代成长至今，树叶仍旧绿意盎然，气根甚至长得跟人一样高，真不简单！”他的青春在这里度过，我相信我的少年时光也不会留白，跟着他七零年代复古的脚步，每次踏入校园都有一种特别的感觉，是学习新知的热情？是再次驰骋球场的感觉？还是“友情”！

友谊温暖了这个校园，有人说：“朋友，是校园最好的亲人”。想想小时候是否和这群同学一起嬉戏、一起打球、一次又一次的接受老师的责骂？这种热血青春的校园生活是青年回忆的一双翅膀，也成就了这片最美的校园风景！那些年，我们学生时代的友谊单纯真挚，无论什么事，在同学的眼中你永远是最特别的那一个，相互鼓励、互相扶持总是同甘共苦一同面对新挑战，这一幕、这一切、正是校园风景最美的永恆。

在升上初中之前，我还只是个懵懵懂懂的小学生，对这世间的人、情、义都很陌生，升上了初中后，我认识了一群共同承担喜怒哀乐的好兄弟，一个良好的生活环境，在爱里成长与学习，校园风景里有美的“景”，也有美的“人情”，使我从这美丽的校园里面得到的不仅是知识更有“品德”，在这样迷人的校园风情里成长，我相信未来的生活一定会更有意义，更加美好，彩绘我闪亮的中学生活！

在这炎炎夏日，在这个快乐的七月，我参加了嘟嘟城“阳光居民特训营”。你知道我在嘟嘟城“阳光居民特训营”里做了什么事情吗?让我来悄悄地告诉你吧!

每天上午，我在嘟嘟城参加职场体验。现在我已经玩了公安局、消防局、财税局、工商局、缉毒中心、银行、海运公司、百货店、魔术屋、包子铺、百卤坊、粽子店、建筑工地……其中，我最喜欢财税局的职场体验。我作为一名财税官去收税，可以锻炼我的交流能力，还可以锻炼我的算术能力。通过很多次的考验和努力，我在财税局里已经成为高级财税官。

两个星期以来，在嘟嘟城的九大徽章中，我已经获得了六枚徽章，分别是：“职场新秀”、“政治家”、“科学家”、“医学家”、“美食家”和“工程师”。我为了得到这些徽章，每天都要刻苦地完成一定数量的职场体验、达到一定的任务目标。这六枚徽章包含了我的汗水和智慧。接下来，我要向其余三枚徽章发出挑战!相信再过几天，我就能拿到这三枚徽章，成为班级徽章达人。

每天下午，幽默、开朗的Jenny姐姐会给我们上生动的口才课，美丽、温柔的周老师会为给我们上有趣的理财课。在口才课中，在各种情景角色游戏中，我学会了用英语在机场如何check in，在飞机上如何要饮料，在海关和工作人员对话，在路边问路，如何搭乘公交车、出租车。在理财课中，我学会了如何去办理自己的银行卡，如何储蓄，限时点钞，人工点钞，机器点钞，拥有了这些本领，在未来会对我有很大的帮助。

每天傍晚，我们会进行体能训练和团队活动。体能训练中，张老师教会了我们很多关于体育方面的知识。团队活动中，我们又会在一些愉快的游戏中学会团结。

It is important to know our good and bad points because this knowledge will

help us to improve ourself. We should examine ourselves and learn who we

are.

对于我们来说，正确地认识自身的优缺点是很重要的，因为这个认识有助于我们自身的提高。我们应该检查自己并学着(认识)我们是谁。

Above all, we should recognize our strengths and weaknesses. For example, I

am healthy and fit, so I can work hard. Im also optimistic, humble and polite.

These are my strengths. However, I also have weaknesses. For one thing, Im

stubborn and a little impatient. Im sometimes lazy as well and can spent a

whole day just watching TV and eating junk food. Im not ashamed to admit these

bad pints. Knowing what they are lets me focus on improving myself.

首先，我们应该认识自己的优点和缺点。举个例子来说，我是个身体健康的人，所以我可以很努力的工作。我也是一个乐观、谦逊和有礼貌的人。这些是我的优点。可是，我也有缺点。首先，我是一个倔强和有点没有耐心的人。有时候我也很懒惰的，(我)可以花整天的时间看电视和吃垃圾食品。我没有对允许这些缺点(出现)而感到羞愧。了解这些优缺点使我(的注意力)聚焦在提高自身方面。

However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are. It looks poorest when you are richest. The fault-finder will find faults in paradise. Love your life, poor as it is. You may perhaps have some pleasant, thrilling, glorious hours, even in a poor-house. The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich mans abode; the snow melts before its door as early in the spring. I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there, and have as cheering thoughts, as in a palace. The towns poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any. Maybe they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving. Most think that they are above being supported by the town; but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means, which should be more disreputable. Cultivate poverty like a garden herb, like sage. Do not trouble yourself much to get new things, whether clothes or friends. Turn the old, return to them. Things do not change; we change. Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.

但是意思是你的生活,满足生活它;不要躲避它,更别用恶言咒骂它。它不像你那么坏。你最富有的时候,看起来却最贫穷。爱找缺点的人就是到天堂的能找到缺点。你要爱你的生活,尽管它贫穷。你也许有一些愉快、高兴、光荣的时间,即使在一个贫民收容所。夕阳反射在济贫院的养老院明亮如从富人的住处;雪融化在那门前早在春天。我只看到,一个从容的可能生活得心满意足,和像在皇宫中一样。镇上的穷人似乎我往往过着最独立的生活。也许他们很伟大,所以受之无愧。上面大多数认为他们是被支持的小镇,但它经常发生,他们不是用不诚实的手段来支持自己,而应该更声名狼藉。视贫穷如园中之花,像圣人一样耕植它吧!不要麻烦自己获得新的东西,无论是衣服还是朋友。找旧的,回到那里去。万物不变,是我们在变。你的衣服可以卖掉,但要保留你的思想。

What#39;s the meaning of a friend to you?

Maybe you think that a friend is someone who will listen to you when you#39;re filled with sorrow.

Maybe you think that a friend is someone who will give you a gift on your birthday.

But to me, a friend is someone I can rely on.

When I was eight years old, I met, my best friend, Jennifer. Her personality was different from mine.

She#39;s very resolute and brave. When I was sad, she was the person who would sit next to me, comforting me.

When I was happy, she was the person with whom I could share my joy. As of now, we have been friends for eight years.

Although we#39;re not classmates anymore, I believe that we#39;ll still be good friends tomorrow and forever.

With time goes by， it bees a bit hard for me to remember everything about

myself at the first day of my college life。 However， there was one thing for

sure that I did feel quite excited and curious about my university。 There is no

doubt that students like me have struggled for a long time so that can be

permitted to enter the university。

Bringing with expectation， I got into Gongshang University。 Generally

speaking， its an interesting and fantastic place for us to study and live in。

Every day a series of outgoing people get into my eyesight。 Curious and out of

politeness， Id talk to them heart to heart。 Here I make friends with my new

classmates from everywhere around China。 Whats more， time and weather

permitting， I will enjoy jogging or playing basketball with my classmates on the

playground， tired but happy。 When staying in dormitory， I choose to read news

online and sometimes watch a film for relaxing。 However， a good student can

never leave his study behind。 When it es to study， hard problems never upset me，

instead they arouse me。 Rather than ignoring it， Id think carefully for a while

and ask my classmates for help。

To be honest， there are some things I don’t deal with properly。 For

instance， once I spent nearly a whole day playing puter games。 Personally， we

university students are already adults and its our obligation to develop

ourselves in college by learning new professional skills。 Not until we take a

right attitude towards our study and life can we win a rich and colorful

experience in college。

August 7,2014 Friday Today, I did housework for grandmother. She is not

very healthy and I decide to do housework for her more frequently. And she will

feel happy and become better. Suddenly, an idea hit me that it’s terrible to

grow old becuase you have to worry about both your health and others’ opinions.

Once again, I make a decision to be a good girl.

译文：今天，我帮助了奶奶做家务。奶奶的身体不好。我以后要常帮她做事。这样她就会高兴身体也会好一些。突然觉得，人老了真不好。不但身体不会好，而且一不小心就会惹得大家讨厌。我又做了一个决定，以后一定要做个乖孩子。

我的初中生活

记不清有多少个夜晚，在我翻阅纸张的指间滑落;记不清有多少支蜡烛，在我的凝视中化为灰烬。逝者如斯，我时时刻刻会听见自己对生命承诺的余音，感到岁月的流转在渐渐稀释我的年少无知，我愿自己是一只上足了发条的时钟，在昼夜不停的流转中留下自己充实的每一刻。

从小学五年级开始，我就开始憧憬我的初中生活

时光飞逝，岁月如梭。一年年的流失，一年年的失望，转眼到了最后一年，我终于意识到，我不该在这样混下去了，没有时间了，我开始努力掌握了自己的学习方法，我学会了认真听讲，我学会了周末认真完成作业，我学会了向同学问问题，我学会了勤奋，我长大了我的成绩也终于有了起色，我不断进步，虽然我的成绩到最后没有达到自己梦寐以求的第一名，但我至少拼过一把，我对得起我的青春年华，我对得起我的初中生活

Today ,my mother and I cleaned the house. I cleaned the windows hard because

it is so dirty. Then I cleaded it again. After that, I cleaned the floor and

swept it. I thought it is dirtier than windows. Then I cleaned the tables and

lots of chairs. We washed all of the clothes and quilts. Until four o`clock, we

tidied all of the rooms up. My room was the cleanest and brightest. I was so

happy and satisfied. Then my mother said: "You`re successful."

今天,我的母亲,我打扫了房间。我擦窗户难的,因为它太脏了。然后我cleaded一遍。之后,我打扫地板和清扫。我认为这是肮脏窗口。然后我打扫桌子和大量的椅子。我们所有的衣服和棉被。4点钟之前,我们整理所有的房间。我的房间是最亮的。我非常高兴并且很满意。然后我母亲说:“你是成功的。”

转眼间，我的人生第一个学习阶段在不知不觉中结束了，又开始了我人生的第二个阶段初中生活，开学第一天，紧张、开心、激动的心情促使我迫不及待地想早点来到学校，来到我即将要生活三年的学校城东中学。迈进校门的那一刻，脸上的笑容已溜到了九霄云外，只剩下紧张、害怕。那欢笑声，那说话声，那玩耍声。校园的一切都是那样陌生，但这陌生的环境却又充满“诱惑”，让我渴望去了解它。我来到107班我在教室坐下后，周围的一切又都是那样陌生，好像是两个不同世界的。但我坚信，我和她们一定会成为好朋友。

在小学时，常听老师们说，初中的老师是最“残暴”的，动不动就“鞭打”学生。可是，经过几个星期的学习，我发现所有的老师并非都是“学生杀手”，相反，我发现他（她）们个个都是平易近人。特别是语文老师讲课十分生动，朗读课文的时候也十分有感情。面对陌生环境的我们，心中自然有些害怕，上课也不敢举手发言，语文老师常常鼓励我们，使我们对这个陌生的环境渐渐熟悉起来。

第三个星期的星期二下午，我班进行了班干部评选。在小学的我，一直担任着副班长和文娱委员。我心想，初中应该也能谋得“一官半职”吧。可惜结果是那样残酷，那样无情我“名落孙山”了。我很伤心，但我不会因此而气馁。我相信，在往后的日子里，我一定会“金榜题名”。

初中生活，一定会丰富多彩，同学们，你们说对吗？

The Laba Festival is a traditional Chinese holiday celebrated on the eighth day of the twelfth month of the lunar Chinese calendar. "La" is the name given to the 12th lunar month and 8 is pronounced as "ba" in Chinese, which translated is "Laba." There are several legends about the origin of this festivity and we could not tell which one is true. But what we know today is that this festival started as a sacrificial offering to ancestors. It was also a time for the ancient Chinese to pray to heaven and earth that there would be a bountiful harvest. Many people hoped for good luck as well for the coming year.

农历十二月初八是中国的传统节日——腊八节，腊代表中国农历的十二月，而八是eight的发音，因此，这个节日被翻译成腊八。关于腊八起源的传说有很多，我们已经不能辨其真假。时至今日，我们确定的是这个节日起初是为了祭祀祖先，祈求丰收以及为即将来到的一年祈福。

Traditionally, the Laba rice porridge is the most important element of the festival. Generally, the porridge contains eight ingredients which can include glutinous rice, red beans, millet, Chinese sorghum, peas, dried lotus seeds and some other ingredients, such as dried dates, chestnut meat, walnut meat, almond, peanut, etc. The porridge must be boiled for many hours and then offered as a sacrifice to the ancestors. This must be done before noontime. Also, it is tradition that family members eat the porridge together. Then they leave some as a symbol of hope for a good harvest the coming year.

从传统上讲，腊八粥是腊八节最重要的元素。腊八粥通常由八种材料做成，这些材料可以是黏米，红豆，小米，高粱，豌豆，莲子和一些诸如红枣，栗子，核桃仁，杏仁，花生等谷物。粥要熬制数小时，然后作为祭品祭献给祖先。这个祭祀活动一定要在中午之前完成。之后，家人们坐在一起吃腊八粥也就成了传

Another custom is the soaking of Laba garlic. Garlic is soaked in vinegar for more than twenty days starting from Laba festival. Then when the Chinese New Year comes, the garlic and vinegar is used alongside jiaozi on the table.

腊八节的另一传统式腌制腊八蒜。从腊八节那天起，就将蒜泡在醋中二十多天，这样，到春节的时候，就可以在餐桌上与饺子同食了。

The earth is our home, the mother of mankind, the cradle of life, had been tortured by the human was scarred. It is selfless to provide us with natural resources. So, protecting the earth is our bounden duty and responsibility. Low carbon life, is our mother is the best way to return to the earth.

On one occasion, Im writing an article. But I think did not come up with a good story. A copy of the original manuscript paper be I tore up to only a few pages, at this moment, mom finds out, she reminded me: "my daughter, how do you develop such a bad habit of waste? Dont you know the paper is made of trees? If everyone is a waste of a piece of paper, and the countrys 1.3 billion people means destroying the forest, the earth is fragile, we must carefully protect the earth, we humans can live on the earth!" Listen to the mother, I feel so ashamed. Save resources, we should start from these trivial things around: save water, save electricity...

Since learned last lesson, I would never waste paper. And "good ability to learn a low-carbon life" : the water that clean out rice can be used to water the flowers, not only make more lush flowers and plants, also can save resources; Dish washing water can be used to mop the floor or flush the toilet... Believe that everyone heard a word: if humans do not add abstemious waste of water resources, so the last drop of water in the world, will be the tear of human beings. Someone once did, as long as we are the Chinese save a drop of water, and that the country can save 45 tons of water. How amazing number! Associated with the motherland of the Yangtze river and the Yellow River, are made of a trickle of water together?

Blue sky, white clouds, the mountains green trees and red flowers, birds singing, the fish in the water freely roam. What a harmony between man and nature landscape. Isnt that what people aspire to, look forward to? From this moment, protect the earth, low carbon life. Let our homes more beautiful, more green!

地球是我们的家园，这位人类的母亲，这个生命的摇篮，已经被人类折磨得伤痕累累。它是无私地为我们提供自然资源。所以，保护地球是我们义不容辞的义务与责任。低碳生活，就是我们给地球母亲最好的回报方式。

有一次，我正在写一篇文章。可我左思右想也没有想出一个好题材。一本原稿纸被我撕得只剩几页了，这时，被妈妈发现了,她提醒了我：“女儿啊，你怎么养成这么浪费的坏习惯呢?你难道不知道这些纸都是树木做成的吗?要是每一个人都浪费一张纸，全国13亿人就等于毁坏了一片森林，地球已经不堪一击，我们要精心保护地球，我们的人类才能生活在地球上!”听了妈妈的话，我感到羞愧不已。节约资源，就要从身边这些琐碎的小事做起：节约水，节约电……

自从吸取了上次的教训，我再也不浪费纸张了。并且学到了低碳生活的“好本领”：淘米水可以用来浇花，这样做不仅使花草更茂盛，也可以很好地节约资源;洗菜水可以用来拖地或冲厕所……相信大家都听过一句话：如果人类不加节制地浪费水资源，那么世界上的最后一滴水，将是人类的眼泪。有人曾做过统计，只要我们中国人节约一滴水，那全国就能节约45吨水。多么惊人的数字啊!联想到祖国的万里长江和滔滔黄河，不也是由一滴滴的水汇聚而成的吗?

蓝蓝的天空，洁白的云朵，山间绿树红花，鸟儿尽情欢唱，鱼儿在水中自由遨游。多么和谐的人与自然的风景图。这不正是人们向往、憧憬的吗?从这一刻起，保护地球，过低碳生活。让我们的家园更美好、更绿色!

估计除了学生时代，社会上的大多数人在追风逐日的生活中早已将诗词抛于天外。大人们啊，除了耳熟能详的“举头望明月”，除了“处处闻啼鸟”，你们还记得什么?你们深陷于“现实”，殊不知已脱离生活的意义;你们念着“不充实”，因为你们忘记了本能的如何去活。罢了。既然，曾经的古韵成为已去的背影，那么，不妨推敲一下生活的诗意。

推敲生活的诗意，就要多观察生活。

生活实在是巧夺天工。无论是江南小镇的秀丽多姿，北国风光的万里雪飘还是西北的广袤大漠。长河落日。这每一段枇杷魅影，每一处银波浩淼，每一片嶙峋峥嵘，都充满诗意的极致，无与伦比的意境，使人情思遄飞。诗意就像生活稀缺的风花雪月里的一杯美酒，使人心醉。

诗人造就了诗，生活造就了诗意。或许，诗人笔下文字的推敲，骨子里实在是对生活的推敲。我常羡慕古人，简单淳朴;我常笑今人，我们自诩比古人的IQ高出百倍，可当问你“生活是什么?”你茫然了。倒不如上溯千年的古人用一首古诗回答来的恰当。

诗，并非古人的专项。当你骑车行进在绿荫下;当你抬头看到红绿灯光变换的一霎那;当你发现摩天大楼缝隙间露出一缕调皮的阳光;当……这时你微微一笑，这是诗意，当别人一转头看到你的微笑时，又是诗意……

在忙碌中，适当放松一下。仔细推敲生活的细微之处，诗意就在其中。

national day plan

with the coming of national day, i have a one week holiday.

i really expect to it, because i want to have a short trip during these days.

i will travel tojiuzhaivalleywith my parents for three days.

i have heard that the scenery ofjiuzhaivalleyis very beautiful in autumn and it’s the best time to travel there.

autumn is my most favorite season so i want to enjoy the beauty of such a wonderful place.

i do some preparations for this trip.

for example, i search the internet to see the travel raiders and i have known where the most attracting place is and where to live in.

i am sure it will be a wonderful journey.

there are only several days for the coming trip, but i have been too excited to wait.

My father is busy all the time, he promises me that once he has the time,

he will bring me to the zoo. This week, he finally keeps his promise. I am so

happy, I see many animals, the monkeys impress me so much. They are so active

and they climb everywhere. My father and I have the good time in the zoo. I also

broaden my vision.

A poet leads me to a branch road: on one side, there are lots of sweet

apples, lovely and charming; on the other, there is a patch of thorn, what hides

behind the success of struggling against the thorn is a splendid palace. I

deeply know that if I choose the apples, I will give up a precious opportunity

of becoming a queen; While if I choose to challenge, I have to say farewell to

the apples. Which one should I choose?

Just like the branch road, we have to make a lot of choices during our

lifetime. It is usually considered that we are choosing what to gain, to own,

but in my opinion, we are just choosing to give up.

Choosing to be a teacher means giving up the life as rich as a business

man;

Choosing to be a top student means giving up much leisure time in front of

the TV.

Sure, it’s a torture, but we must judge carefully what is more important,

then give up the others. Don’t think of them any more, just focus all your

spirit on what you are doing.

I myself, who is standing here, have already chosen to challenge in such a

great competition, so I have to give up ten days of normal classes in school and

relaxation without pressure. But I am still pleased, because giving up properly

makes me stick to my choice.

Let’s return to our branch road, which one will your choose? I choose to

challenge here!

一位诗人把我引到一个岔路口：一边是甘甜的苹果，鲜艳而诱人;另一边是一条荆棘之路，但隐藏在与荆棘搏斗的成功之后是一座富丽的宫殿。我深深地明白：如果我选择那些苹果，我将失去一个可能成为女王的良机，与此同时，如果我选择挑战那些荆棘，那会很艰辛，而且我又必须与可爱的苹果告别，我该选择哪一个呢?

正如这个岔路口一般，生活中的我们面临多种选择。人们通常认为，我们在选择去获得什么，拥有什么，但在我看来，我们在选择放弃什么。

选择作一名老师意味着放弃了像商人一样奢华富有的生活。

选择作一名顶尖学生意味着放弃了许多在电视机前的闲暇时间。

当然，放弃的选择是一种苦难，但我们必须用心审度，什么对自己来说更为重要，做出选择，然后放弃其他，不要再回首想那些已放弃的东西，把精力集中于你正在做的事。

站在这里的我，已选择了在这样大规模的比赛中挑战自我，所以我必须放弃十天的正常功课和没有压力的轻松感。但我依然高兴，因为适宜的放弃弃之后，我更加专注于自己的选择。

让我们回到那个岔路口吧，你会选择哪一个呢?我，选择挑战此地!

为了丰富我的课余生活，妈妈给我报了一个游泳班。第一次学游泳的情景，直到现在我还历历在目。

那天一到游泳馆，我就迫不及待地换好泳衣，冲出更衣室，直奔泳池。我不假思索地把脚伸入水中，倏地又缩了回来，水冰凉冰凉的。当看到别的小朋友套着游泳圈自由自在地游来游去，我真是羡慕得不得了!于是，我咬着牙硬着头皮下了水，还不由自主地打了好几个冷颤。

魏教练给我们几个孩子讲了讲注意事项和要求，又示范了憋气的动作，接着便让我们练习憋气。我扒着池壁，紧闭眼睛，深吸了一口气，把头慢慢地埋到水里。水刚没过头顶，心就怦怦直跳起来，我赶紧又探出头来，抹了抹脸上的水，睁眼一看，旁边的小妹妹都还在坚持憋气呢!我也不甘示弱，又沉下水去，这次竟然坚持了十几秒。一堂课下来，我越来越胆大，憋气的时间也越来越长，完全能在水里漂起来。教练夸我进步很大，我心里美滋滋的。

现在，我已经学会了蛙泳、自由泳，虽然动作还不是很到位，但我相信，只要我有不怕苦、不怕累、不怕喝水的精神，就一定会越游越好，越游越远。

怎么样，我的课余生活还够丰富有趣吧?

暑假里，很多人都会选择外出旅游，或参加各种兴趣班、补习班，而我却选择了“打暑假工”，我的老板就是我亲爱的妈妈，我的工作就是帮妈妈做家务。

有人可能会说，做家务就是做家务，干吗还叫打工呢?因为妈妈为了鼓励我这“懒虫”做家务，决定实行奖励制，在我每干完件家务，她就会发给份“工资”。

我高兴极了，说干就干。先从我最拿手的，且已有两年“工龄”的洗碗工作开始吧。说起洗碗，听似简单，但要真正把这工作做好还真不简单哩。记得刚刚洗碗那会儿，我不是摔坏了碗盘，就是那边边角角洗不干净。经过这段时间的磨练，我的洗碗功夫可是大有长进。我会先把碗碟轻轻放进洗碗盆里，然后拿起抹布，再挤几滴洗洁精，左手拿碗，右手拿抹布，边洗边转。瞧，盆里出现了团团的泡泡，真漂亮!一个、两个、三个……我又拿起了筷子，用力搓了搓，“卡啦、卡啦”，真像段美妙的快板。最后，我再用清水把碗筷冲洗干净。妈妈看着满头大汗的我，总会逗乐地说：“怎么样，打工的滋味如何?”我说：“确实有点累，但是能帮妈妈做点家务，又有‘工资’拿，累点也值!”

最费力气的是拖地，我用桶装满水，把拖把放在桶里洗洗，提出拧干，用力在地板上擦……

最轻松的是晾衣服，我打开洗衣机，拿起件衣服甩直，用衣架把衣服“穿”好，再用衣叉挂上就完成了。

通过这段时间辛勤的劳动，我终于领到了我的工资，工资虽然不多，但我想把它存起来，做更有意义的事情。在给妈妈“打工”的这段日子，我不仅从妈妈身上学到了很多课本中学不到的东西，同时，也体会到了妈妈平时的辛苦。这个暑假真有意义，虽然累，但很快乐。

Mid-autumn is a traditional festival in China. It’s also called Autumn festive, August festival, daughters festival, or Reunion festival and so on. It’s often on August 15th in lunar calendar every year, but in some places, it’s on the 16th August, such as Ningbo, Lanzhou and Zhou Shan.

Mid-autumn day is thought to be the best festival with human touch or interest and poetic sentiment and mood of a painting. It’s a reunion festival, on the day, people always miss close relatives and friends. Wherever they are, they always go home to see their parents and brothers and sisters, or their wife or husband and their children. The people who are in far away also give a call to the persons they are concerning with.

On this day, people often eat moon cake, nuts and some special food. And in some places, the days before Mid-autumn day, they do the rabbits with wheat, which stand of peace and reunion. On the evening, family members or friends always stay together to watch the moon as eating moon cake and nuts, or as talking each other happily.
