一个万里晴空的早晨，没有一片白云。杰克正在上班的路上，忽然看见教堂旁边那绿草如茵的草地上有一群人。他拐到草地那儿停下了脚步，坐在长椅上，定睛一看，原来是一群顽皮的孩子在举办一场足球比赛。只见孩子们分成两组，双方队员用书包、帽子和手套做成一个简简单单的球门。裁判“嘟”的一声哨子响，比赛开始了。

守门的是一个叫汤姆的男孩，他身穿黑色长袖的体恤衫，短短的牛仔裤，弯曲着膝盖，双手搭在膝盖上，虎视眈眈地望着对方队员，金发在阳光底下闪闪发光。汤姆身后的小男孩是他弟弟。他弟弟穿着一身教红色运动服，正给汤姆助威。足球场的一旁是一排长椅，那是观众坐的地方。瞧！那丛野花旁边坐着一个男孩，他的怀中抱着他的弟弟，他弟弟手握一朵野花拨弄着。而他家的狗正趴在地上懒洋洋地晒着太阳。是条哈巴狗，脖子上还挂着铃铛，可爱极了。在他身旁的是杰克邻居的孩子，他并不是在关心球赛，而是低下头观察蚂蚁呢！他哥哥则伸长了脖子左看看右看看。他的姐姐因为他哥哥挡住了视线，索性站起来，不住摆正她头上的红蝴蝶结。在他旁边的是一位女孩，她的手里紧紧拿着一个漂亮的洋娃娃。女孩旁边是她的朋友——一个戴着尖帽子的男孩，挺有趣的。接下来是一个戴着礼帽，穿着黑色西装，打着领带的男人，不说你也知道，他是杰克。他也融入到这紧张的气氛中啦！

在比赛中，对方把足球猛地一踢，那足球像利箭一样，直冲汤姆的膝盖。汤姆愣了一下，竟不晓得躲开，也接不住，膝盖就擦破了，血不住地往外流。观众们向对方竖起大拇指，杰克心想：真没有良心。于是，他走上前去给汤姆包扎了伤口。果然不出杰克所料，汤姆带伤上阵，赢了一球。这下，观众全都表扬汤姆，大喊“好球”，杰克糊涂了，这观众到底是哪一边的？过了一会儿，杰克习惯性地看一看手表，“天啊”杰克惊呼，“都十点了，我上班迟到了！”虽然比赛在这时结束了，结果是汤姆那一方输了，但杰克还是向汤姆投去敬佩的一笑。

[My Backpack：小学二年级优秀英语作文

今年寒假，我读了四大名着之一—《西游记》，读后，它让我受益匪浅。

在这本书中，我最最敬佩的人就是齐天大圣——孙悟空了。孙悟空本身就是个神话，他是从花果山中一块石头里蹦出来的石猴。因他穿过了花果山水帘洞，就成为了猴子们的王。然后跋山涉水，拜菩提祖师为师，不但学会了七十二变，而且学会了腾云驾雾。后来他大闹天宫，自封为齐天大圣，被如来佛祖压在了五行山下。最后经观世音菩萨点化拜唐僧为师，与猪八戒和沙僧保护唐僧取得真经，孙悟空那种热爱自由、敢于反抗、机智、勇敢、忠诚、无私、临危不乱、充满斗争、永不放弃的精神使我敬佩不已。

取经路上，孙悟空经受了多少磨难啊!在崇山峻岭中，他忍着唐僧的误解，在紧箍咒的疼痛中三打白骨精;在车迟国，他上刀山、下油锅，与虎精、羊精、鹿精三个“大国师”斗智斗勇;在盘丝洞，他被蜈蚣精的千只眼睛发出的万道光芒刺得晕了过去，但他依然不屈不挠，最终除掉了他们，救出了唐僧。

由孙悟空我想到了自己也是一个遇到困难不服输、不放弃的人。记得有一次我在做一到很难的奥数题，想了很久都做不出来，于是便焦躁不安的想放弃，但当我想到孙悟空时，一股强大的力量又使我安静地坐了下来，认真地思考着，最后终于解决了。姐姐佩服地说：“你真厉害，这么难的题都能做出来，太不可思议了!”哥哥也敬佩地说：“就是!就是!”听了他们的话，我高兴地笑了，真得感谢孙悟空啊!”

今年四月到六月，我参加了2017年“希望之星”英语风采大赛。这可是全国性的比赛哦！必须要闯过海选、市赛和省赛三关，才能去北京参加中央电视台的总决赛。

It was sunny today. I was excited. I got up at a quarter to seven.

I made a appointment to meet at nine o’clock. After I had my breakfast, I went to the Wanjia Market . It was hot outside. When I arrived, my friends didn’t arrive. I waited for him in front of the KFC’s door.

I haven’t seen them for a year. And in a year, we didn’t come into contact with others frequently. About ten minutes left, my friends arrived one by one. After we greeted,we went to play basketball in Liwan Gymnasium. The match last for tow hours.Oh!I fill very happy today!

Usually, the Valentine’s Day has no connection with the traditional Chinese

festival, but this year, the Lantern festival falls on the same day with the

lovers’ day. Well, some young will face a dilemma，especially for those who

doesn’t get married. Should they spend the day with their families or their hot

lovers? That’s a question. I’ve got a key that can solve this problem.

Family comes first of course. You should wake up a little earlier in the

morning, and help your mother in the kitchen. On the Lantern Festival, making

rice balls and dumplings are the traditional activities. Having a reunion dinner

with the whole family is also very important, so you need to show up and stay

with your family for the whole morning. Spend some time with your family. Keep

them company and make them happy. In the afternoon, there are maybe not so busy,

you can plan for the Valentine’s Day with your girlfriend or boyfriend, you can

have some snacks in 4p.m, and tell your parents you will hang out with your

friends at night and not having supper at home tonight. They would be

understood. Then you can take your girlfriend or boyfriend to a nice restaurant

and see the latest movie after dinner. Do not forget to present the gift you

prepare for your lover. Make your lover happy, too.

I think everybody should find a balance between family love and lover’s

love. If I can only choose one, I will choose family love over the other.

Because I know my family never leaves me and my parents are aging. How many days

can I still be with them? So I really appreciate the days that I can still be

with them. I know you will do the same just like me.

Everybody will meet all kinds of difficulties during their lives, of

course, they are willing to accept success, but the fact is that no one can win

all the time, they will meet failure now and then. Fail is an unpleasant thing

to face, people treat fail a bad thing. While for me, I think we can learn from

failure and be a better man.

Everyone is afraid of facing failure, because failure brings them the sense

of frustration. When facing failure, people choose to avoiding talking about it,

they feel that they will be looked down upon by others. Indeed, no one likes to

failure anything, they want to be successful all the time.

If people change their idea about failure, they can see the positive side.

There is an old saying that failure is the mother of success, which means that

people will learn from failure and make preparation for the success. So failure

is not that hard to face, if people take right attitude towards it, they will

gain success soon.

In a word, failure is not a bad something, it can bring success, only if

people treat it right.

It is quite usual that one meets failures, for ones life can never be

plain sailing. However, diffhrent people hold diffhrent attitudes towards

failure. Some people think it a heavy blow to fail in achieving something and

they can not endure failure. When they meet failure, they will be seriously

dejected and can never pluck up their courage to try again. However, others

think it natural to meet failures in ones career. Therefore, they are

psychologically prepared. When they meet failures, they will not be frustrated.

Instead, they will continue to meet new challenges. As to me, Im in favor of

the latter view. Failure is really a terrible thing but it is also the mother of

success. If one draws lessons from failures, in most cases he will get success

in the future. Furthermore, ones life can never be smooth sailing; it must be

full of difficuhies and setbacks. If one is daunted by difficuhies and

frustrations, he will always be a failure. However, if one holds a positive

attitude toward failure, he will overcome difficulties and frustrations to win

victory.

下午，我又一次去参加了市北少年宫的比赛！同样还是三点多到的，我一共连打了六场呢！

[乒乓比赛小学生记事作文

Moonquakes are to Mid-Autumn Festival what mince pies are to Christmas. The seasonal round cakes traditionally have a sweet filling of lotus seed paste or red bean paste and often have one or more salted duck eggs in the center to represent the moon. And the moon is what this celebration is all about. Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month，it is the time when the moon is said to be at its brightest and fullest.

There are two legends which claim to explain the tradition of eating moonquakes. One Tang Dynasty myth holds that the Earth once had 10 suns circling it. One day all 10 suns appeared at once，scorching the planet with their heat.

It was thanks to a skillful archer named Hour Yi that the Earth was saved. He shot down all but one of the suns. As his reward，the Heavenly Queen Mother gave Hour Yi the Elixir of Immortality，but she warned him that he must use it wisely.

Hour Yi ignored her advice and，corrupted by fame and fortune，became a tyrannical leader. Chang-Err，his beautiful wife， could no longer stand by and watch him abuse his power so she stole his Elixir and fled to the moon to escape his angry wrath. And thus began the legend of the beautiful woman in the moon，the Moon Fairy.

The second legend has it that during the Yuan Dynasty，an underground group led by Zhu Yuan Zing was determined to rid the country of Mongolian dominance. The moon cake was created to carry a secret message.

When the cake was opened and the message read，an uprising was unleashed which successfully routed the Mongolians. It happened at the time of the full moon，which，some say，explains why moonquakes are eaten at this time.

Moonquakes are usually stamped with Chinese characters indicating the name of the ry and the type of filling used. Some ries will even stamp them with your family name so that you can give personalized ones to friends and family.

They are usually presented in boxes of four which indicate the four phases of the moon. Traditional moonquakes are made with melted lard，but today vegetable oil is more often used in the interests of health.

Moonquakes are not for the diet-conscious as they are loaded with calories. The best way to wash down one of these sticky cakes is with a cup of Chinese tea，especially Jasmine or Chrysanthemum tea，which aids the digestion.

《西游记》我以前看过，当时我只觉得《西游记》主要是写孙悟空的，也只喜欢看有关孙悟空的内容，因为他刚强正直、机智勇敢，一个筋斗就十万八千里，有迷惑妖怪的七十二变，重达一万三千五百斤，可大可小的降魔利器“如意金箍棒”，取经路上一路斩妖除魔，是个大英雄。而唐僧则显得很无能，一天到晚只会念经，并且不能识破妖魔诡计，经常冤枉孙悟空，大念紧箍咒。猪八戒就真的是一只好吃懒做，贪生怕死的“大懒猪”。而只会挑行李的沙和尚则是一个无足轻重的角色。

利用今年暑假的时间我再次读完了这本厚厚的《西游记》，心里有了与以前不一样的感触。现在我眼中的唐僧师徒四人不在是一个个分离的角色了，他们是一个整体，一个共同历经了九九八十一难，斩除了千万妖魔，排除千难万险最终取得真经成佛的超强团体——“西天取经四人组”。在这个组合里，唐僧是四人的中心，只有唐僧有着西取真经的执着;悟空是斩妖除魔的主力;八戒是探敌先锋;沙僧是勤恳的后勤部长;这四人缺一不可。如果没有这四人的紧密团结，就不会有这流传千古的四大名著之一的《西游记》，就不会给读者展现出西行路上一出出精彩绝伦的降妖除魔故事。

通过这次的阅读，我从《西游记》中体会到了一个真诚相待，紧密团结的团队，在如今社会中的重要性。只有这样的团队才能排除千难万险最终取得成功。
