篇6:硕士复试英语自我介绍

全文共 1981 字

Good afternoon everyone, my name is XXX, I’m 29 years old, and I’m from Beijing.

I’d like to introduce myself through the next points:

About working: There are three main aspects of my daily work:

The first, I teach courses such as basic laws and politics. I can feel the strong responsibilities on a teacher, because I have to not only teach knowledge well, but also let students know how to be a good person.

The second, I’m responsible for some administrative work, such as students recruiting and employment. The main majors in our college are urban metro, car repairing, transportation management, logistics and so on.

I think the students recruiting and employment are very important to our college as well as to students and their parents, the serious working attitude and consciousness are highly required.

The third part of my daily work is to be a head teacher, there is an idea I respect very much: there is no bad students, but only bad teachers. If a family is a component of our society, then the class is a component of the school.

When we judge a class good or bad, the key ruler is the organization and management ability of a head teacher, as well as the good working attitude and teaching methods. A head teacher is the pathfinder on the way of students growing, as a young teacher, I’ll try my best to be an excellent head teacher.

About daily life: I have a wide range of hobbies, especially sports and reading.

Sport: We have very good sports facilities in our college, I play badminton every Tuesday, and play basketball every Friday. I think that sports is the best flavor of our life, it can release the pressure and relax our mood.

Reading: I have good reading habits since I was a child, I like the famous four classic very much, and I’m also interested in some biography and news commentaries. I think books can help people being mature, they affect me gradually.

And of course, I have the confused moment, but I think the difficulties can help me grow. Thank you.

Throughout the &; Mom, thanks to my mom helping me out, dad didnt do it. & hellip;

This is me, a one-belly joke, a little boy with an addiction to books.

我,姓李名飞阳,九岁已有余,十岁尚不足,语文老师还戏说我什么“大风起兮云飞扬”,也许是爸爸把这个“阳”字起别了的缘故吧,我丝毫没有飞起来的感觉,倒觉得自己平凡得如一粒沙子,是属于扎在草堆里找不到的那种料。

我个子不高,瘦得像一根筷子,属于营养不良型,只有声音还撑体面,唱起歌来洪亮如钟,气势非凡,颇有余音绕梁之势。妈妈常跟人说,我家阳阳吃的饭全长在声音上了。嘿嘿,反正也没有白吃,至少也算派上用场了,管它呢。还没有学到多少知识,那个高高的鼻梁上就架起了一副“望远镜”。爷爷总私心地说我是未来的“学者”,学者不学者,难道我自己还不清楚吗?只是由于长时间受眼镜的“压迫”,本来不大的眼睛变成了“一线天”,鼻梁被压得差点和嘴巴“拥抱”。这可已成为不争的事实。

我很爱讲笑话。每次讲笑话时,总会有许多铁杆听众,也算“粉丝”吧?每讲完一段笑话,他们准会笑得前俯后仰,不是笑得肚子痛,就是笑得爬在板凳上,直不起腰来,有的甚至干脆爬在地上,打起滚来。有一次,一个小伙伴听完我的笑话,一下子笑得坐在地上,正巧那儿有一滩水,等他反应过来时,裤子已经湿透了,我们又开始笑他尿裤子了。

啥?你问我有没有爱好?那还用说,可以说是五花八门、琳琅满目,嘻嘻,言重了吧。不过要说我最大的爱好嘛,还得数看书了。有这么一次,爸爸在看电视上的足球赛,我说想去奶奶家,爸爸点了点头,算是同意了。我走进厕所,本想方便一下就去的,没想到厕所里放着我最爱看的《儿童文学》,哇,多好的机会啊!真是天助我也。平时爸爸怕我眼睛近视严重,总是防着我,今天他看球赛我看书,正好两不误,于是我就直接坐在马桶上,津津有味地看了起来。去奶奶家的事早被抛到九霄云外了。也不知过了多久,听见爸爸在给奶奶打电话,好像还提到了我。后来又听到爸爸给妈妈和三姨她们一个个打电话,不知在说着什么,好像还有点急,紧接着听见爸爸下楼的声音。管那么多干啥,机不可失,时不再来,看书要紧。这可是个新的发现啊!以后看书就到这儿来,神不知鬼不觉的,没人打扰,多清静呀!

大约一小时左右吧,爸爸回来了,我不小心被文中的故事惹得笑出了声,爸爸听见了厕所里的声音,打开门一看,见我正坐在马桶上看书,当时就气得火冒三丈,骂我没有去奶奶家,害得他们到处找我,还差点儿报了警,我一看大事不妙,就赶忙向爸爸认错。“你一个大活人就没有发现娃没有出门吗?”还是妈妈好,多亏妈妈帮我解围,爸爸才算没有动手,唉,好险啊……

这就是我,一个一肚子笑话,看书成瘾的小男孩。

篇14:Sweepingthedust扫尘的英语介绍中英对照

“Dust” is homophonic with “chen”(尘)in Chinese, which means old and past. In this way, “sweeping the dust” before the Spring Festival means a thorough cleaning of houses to sweep away bad luck in the past year. This custom shows a good wish of putting away old things to welcome a new life. In a word, just before the Spring Festival comes, every household will give a thorough cleaning to bid farewell to the old year and usher in the new.

“Dust”与“尘”是谐音(尘在汉语中的意思是旧的和过去的)。这样,“在春节前扫尘”是指彻底清洁房屋扫除过去一年的厄运。此习俗表达了收拾旧事物,欢迎新生活的美好愿望。总之,就在春节到来之前,为了告别旧年迎接新年,家家户户都会彻底打扫一下房屋。

​导语:白宫有着独特而迷人的历史。下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语作文,欢迎阅读与借鉴,谢谢!

For almost two hundred years, the White House has stood as a symbol of the Presidency, the United States government, and the American people. Its history, and the history of the nations capital, began when President George Washington signed an Act of Congress in December of 1790 declaring that the federal government would reside in a district "not exceeding ten miles square...on the river Potomac." President Washington, together with city planner Pierre LEnfant, chose the site for the new residence, which is now 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. As preparations began for the new federal city, a competition was held to find a builder of the "Presidents House." Nine proposals were submitted, and Irish-born architect James Hoban won a gold medal for his practical and handsome design.

Construction began when the first cornerstone was laid in October of 1792. Although President Washington oversaw the construction of the house, he never lived in it. It was not until 1800, when the White House was nearly completed, that its first residents, President John Adams and his wife, Abigail, moved in. Since that time, each President has made his own changes and additions. The White House is, nts private home. It is also the only private residence of a head of state that is open to the public, free of charge.

The White House has a unique and fascinating history. It survived a fire at the hands of the British in 1814 and another fire in the West Wing in 1929, while Herbert Hoover was President. Throughout much of Harry S. Trumans presidency, the interior of the house, with the exception of the third floor, was completely gutted and renovated while the Trumans lived at Blair House, right across Pennsylvania Avenue. Nonetheless, the exterior stone walls are those first put in place when the White House was constructed two centuries ago.

Presidents can express their individual style in how they decorate some parts of the house and in how they receive the public during their stay. Thomas Jefferson held the first Inaugural open house in 1805. Many of those who attended the swearing-in ceremony at the U.S. Capitol simply followed him home, where he greeted them in the Blue Room. President Jefferson also opened the house for public tours, and it has remained open, except during wartime, ever since. In addition, he welcomed visitors to annual receptions on New Year’s Day and on the Fourth of July. In 1829, a horde of 20,000 Inaugural callers forced President Andrew Jackson to flee to the safety of a hotel while, on the lawn, aides filled washtubs with orange juice and whiskey to lure the mob out of the mud-tracked White House.

After Abraham Lincolns presidency, Inaugural crowds became far too large for the White House to accommodate them comfortably. However, not until Grover Clevelands first presidency did this unsafe practice change. He held a presidential review of the troops from a flag-draped grandstand built in front of the White House. This procession evolved into the official Inaugural parade we know today. Receptions on New Years Day and the Fourth of July continued to be held until the early 1930s.

President Clintons open house on January 21, 1993 renewed a venerable White House Inaugural tradition. Two thousand citizens, selected by lottery, were greeted in the Diplomatic Reception Room by President and Mrs. Clinton and Vice President and Mrs. Gore.

近二百年来,白宫一直是总统、美国政府和美国人民的象征。它的历史,和历史上的国家的首都,开始的时候,乔治·华盛顿总统签署了一项国会法案在十二月1790宣布联邦政府将居住区”不超过十平方英里…波托马克河上。“华盛顿总统,连同城市规划师彼埃尔朗方,选择了新的住所网站,就是现在的宾夕法尼亚大道1600号。当准备开始为新的联邦城市,举行比赛找到一个建设者的“总统府”九项建议被提交,爱尔兰出生的建筑师James Hoban获得金牌,他的实际设计和英俊。

1792十月开始铺设第一座基石时,建筑就开始了。尽管华盛顿总统监督这座房子的建造,但他从未在里面居住过。直到1800,当白宫已近完成,它的第一批居民,约翰·亚当斯总统和他的妻子,阿比盖尔,感动。从那时起,每个总统都有自己的变化和补充。白宫是新界的私人住宅。它也是一个国家元首的唯一私人住所,免费向公众开放。

白宫有着独特而迷人的历史。它在1814的英国手上幸存下来,1929在西翼发生了另一场大火,而Herbert Hoover则是总统。在哈里·S·杜鲁门的总统任期,这所房子的内部,与第三楼外,完全被烧毁和翻新而trumans住在布莱尔家,在宾夕法尼亚大道的权利。尽管如此,外墙石墙是在两个世纪前建造白宫时首次出现的。

总统可以表达他们的个人风格,他们如何装饰房子的某些部分,以及他们在入住期间如何接待公众。托马斯·杰斐逊在1805举办了首届就职公开赛。在美国国会大厦参加宣誓仪式的许多人只是跟着他回家,在蓝色房间里迎接他们。杰佛逊总统还开放了公众参观的房子,它一直开放,除了在战争期间,从那时起。此外,他欢迎游客在元旦和七月四日举行一年一度的招待会。1829、一大群听众20000就职总统安德鲁·杰克逊被迫逃往安全的旅馆,在草地上,身边充满washtubs橙汁和威士忌吸引怪物的mud-tracked白宫。

在亚伯拉罕.林肯就任总统后,就职人群变得太大了,白宫无法舒适地接待他们。然而,直到克利夫兰的第一任总统这样做不安全的做法改变。他举行了总统检阅部队从国旗覆盖看台建在白宫前。这一行列演变成今天我们所知道的正式就职游行。元旦和七月四日的招待会一直持续到1930年代初。

1993年1月21日,克林顿总统的公开会议重申了白宫悠久的就职传统。二千名公民被抽签选中,在外交接待室受到总统和夫人克林顿和副总统Gore夫人的欢迎。
