+ 加入清单Do you think what is the most important in your life? Maybe some answers
are dreams. I may directly answer “lovers”.
In my opinion, lovers not simply mean your partner of life, but the people
you love: your parents, husband or wife, children and friends. I have a happy
life because of their company. I even can’t imagine the life without them.
My mum told me” money is not as important as you think, you neednt think
too highly of it. Don’t be greedy, my girl.” I got it. Person around us is the
most important. If they are unhappy, you won’t be happy. There is many beautiful
scenery in our life, however, the most important thing we should notice is that,
without the people we love, they worth nothing.
In reality, many people are chasing wealth which results to the ignorance
of people around them. Obviously, its not a brilliant choice. Don’t’ be
controlled by wealth or money. About life , this is my idea, what’s about
yours?
篇3:有关交流英语初一
全文共 1879 字
+ 加入清单As human beings, we communicate throughout our lives for various porpoises.
But just because weve been communicating for a long time does not mean that we
are always successful or that we can’t improve our communication skills. How can
we convey successful communication? Well, there are several useful tips may help
you to improve your communication skills.
First of all, listen and respond thoughtfully to others. You should spend
more time listening to others instead of boasting yourself. Some of us are very
egocentric, which means self-focused. If you spend too much time talking about
your own stuff, the people around you may think you are a tedious and annoying
person. So, the best way to do is to consider our friends’ thoughts and
feelings. Try to be a good listener, when you express yourself, thinks about it
carefully before you really say it.
Second, appropriately adapt messages to others. It is not enough to be
sensitive and accurately understand others; when your send out your message, you
pick up the best ways and respond to others to achieve your communication goals.
But it does not mean to say something that the listener wants to hear. That
would be unethical. Appropriately adapt messages to others means carefully
editing and shaping your responses so that your messages can be understood by
others and you can achieve your goals.
Last but not least, try to interpret nonverbal messages. As we all know,
unspoken messages can express powerful ideas or emotions with greater impact
than mere words. You should try to observe others facial expressions or
movements and give correct responds to others. You can see the emotions or
attitude from one’s gesture stops. Be sensitive and appropriate interpreting
others.
Most people learn communication rules from experience, by observing and
interacting with others. You can do that too, if you have enough patient and
determinations.
篇4:读书英语年级100词
全文共 1443 字
+ 加入清单Knowledge can be acquired from many sources. These include books, teachers
and practical experience, and each has its own advantages. The knowledge we gain
from books and formal education enables us to learn about things that we have no
opportunity to experience in daily life. We can study all the places in the
world and learn from people we will never meet in our lifetime, just by reading
about them in books. We can also develop our analytical skills and learn how to
view and interpret the world around us in different ways. Furthermore, we can
learn from the past by reading books. In this way, we won’t repeat the mistakes
of others and can build on their achievements.
Practical experience, on the other hand, can give us more useful knowledge.
It is said that one learns best by doing, and I believe that this is true,
whether one is successful or not. In fact, I think making mistakes is the best
way to learn. Moreover, if one wants to make new advances, it is necessary to
act. Innovations do not come about through reading but through experimentation.
Finally, one can apply the skills and insights gained through the study of books
to practical experience, making an already meaningful experience more
meaningful. However, unless it is applied to real experiences, book knowledge
remains theoretical and, in the end, is useless. That is why I believe that
knowledge gained from practical experience is more important than that acquired
from books.
篇5:关于改变自己英语
全文共 2194 字
+ 加入清单In our daily life, we can learn something from some cases. However, from my
point of view, I think that it is essential for us to know ourselves in a right
way. People who have a full awareness of the importance to improve themselves
will discover themselves continuously. Therefore, we can say that if we want to
change ourselves, we must bravely reveal ourselves.
Every coin has two sides, and we are no exception. When we experience some
situations, we will find that there are many advantages of us. Thus, we can have
a huge sense of satisfaction. We may have a little pride, because we are happy
that we can make good use of our advantages to solve more difficult problems in
the future. However, at the same time, we also can realize that there are still
some disadvantages of us. These disadvantages will bring us different
influences. I’d like to point out that people who can bravely accept and remove
their disadvantages will gain a bright future. On the contrary, people who
choose escape or ignorance their disadvantages will indulge themselves, and they
no further progress.
Don’t indulge yourself. If we indulge ourselves, we will meet more terrible
suffering in our later life. I know that when we find our weakness, we may say
that I will never do that again, and regret doing so meaningless thing. I am
such a fool. But when we meet similar situations next time, we will still tell
ourselves that it doesn’t matter that I do it again. Then we will indulge
ourselves to expand our disadvantages. It shows that some people who have no own
principle will fail to realize their promises. When we can overcome our
laziness, we will understand that solving some problems may be not so difficult.
Therefore, we should try our best to control ourselves to pursue higher
development.
There are no any excuses to indulge yourself. We should tell ourselves that
we are capable to overcome our weakness, though it needs much time. However, if
we succeed once, then we will be successful again. Last, we don’t indulge
ourselves. We will become more complete.
Everyone can take actions to improve themselves. Don’t indulge yourself. If
you succeed, you will acquire a huge wealth, and your life will become more
brilliant.
篇6:2024初中英语教师个人工作计划
全文共 1760 字
+ 加入清单本学期,我将结合学校工作计划和学校教学工作计划的要求,规范常规教学,提高教学质量,努力形成自己的教学特色。
一、总体思路
以努力提高教学质量为目标,以抓好教学常规工作,提高英语合格率为重点,采用任务型教学法,注重“学困生”的教育补差工作,形成良好的教学风气。
二、学生情况分析
经过一学期的学习,从上期期末成绩来看,七年级两个班的英语成绩比较理想。平均分82分。大部分学生学习目的明确,态度端正,掌握了英语学习的一些基本方法,能够积极主动认真地学习,学习成绩较好。但还有少部分学生没有明确的学习目的,缺少学习的热情和主动性,自觉性较差,相应的学习习惯也差,加上两极分化十分严重。
三、教材分析
《Goforit》七年级下册共14个单元,包括2个复习单元。全书采用任务型语言教学模式,融汇话题、交际功能和语言结构,形成了一套循序渐进的生活化的学习程序。每个单元都列出明确的语言目标,主要的功能项目与语法结构,需要掌握的基本词汇,并分为A、B两部分。A部分是基本的语言内容,B部分是知识的扩展和综合的语言运用。每个单元还有selfcheck部分,供学生自我检测本单元所学的语言知识。它采用“语言的输入---学生的消化吸收---学生的语言输出”为主线编排的。
四、教学目标
掌握本册书上的重点词汇、词组以及句型。通过本学期的学习,培养学生对英语的学习兴趣,形成有效的学习策略,有效提高学习效率,发展双基能力;培养听、说、读、写的能力,使学生初步获得运用英语的能力,达到语言运用能力的迁移和拓展;通过了解世界,了解不同地区的人文风俗,学会理解和尊重异国文化,并使学生在人际交往中学会尊重和理解别人,能在小组活动中积极与他人合作,相互帮助,共同完成学习任务,尽情享受学习的乐趣。
五、教学措施
1、加强词汇教学,包括单词拼写、词义记忆,语言功能的训练。
词汇是文章、句子的基本单位,词汇量的大小,将直接关系到学生能否流利地运用英语进行交际;能否熟练地用英语读和写;能否顺利地用英语思考。从上学期的期末考试所反映的问题看,在今后的教学中,在加强拼读与拼写的同时,应帮助学生进行有意识记,应加强对词的用法及内在含义的理解,要培养学生用英语解释单词的能力,逐步启发引导学生用英语思考。单词教学一定要做到词不离句,这样,学生在学会了单词的同时,也学会了词的一些基本用法。
2、每天背诵课文中的对话,培养语感。
3、基本的语法教学一定要与语境相结合。
进行语法操练时,要坚持“四位一体”,即话题、语境、结构、功能相结合。抓住话题,联系语境,确定语法结构,明确语法功能(交际功能)。要重视语法知识对于培养语言运用功能的基础作用,又要注重改革教法。课堂上一定要有生动活泼的教学活动。
4、进一步培养阅读能力和写作能力。
阅读和写作能力的培养是英语教学的又一重点。阅读和写作能力的培养在于平时。教师在平时讲解阅读理解题时,应着力帮助学生分析语言材料,而不是核对答案;平常应该多写作文。
5、做好学困生转化和优秀生培养工作。
优秀生:___,___,__,___。
学困生:___,___,__,___,___,___,___,___,___,___,___,___,___。
尤其对学困生进行专门辅导,布置一些作业,让他们在小进步、小转变中体会学习的快乐,树立学习的自信,尽快成长起来。
6、继续搞好师徒结对活动。
师徒结对活动也是一种好的学习方式。
7、作业布置要做到数量适中,批阅及时,对出现的问题要跟踪矫正,认真讲评,尽量面批面改。提高练习质量,要精选资料。
六、教研课题
《浅谈英语阅读能力的培养》
措施:用新的教学理念指导英语阅读教学,进一步改变教法和学法,培养学生对英语阅读的兴趣,提高学生的英语阅读能力,提高英语教学效果。
1、尝试通过各种形式的学习,例如复述课文、把课文改编成情景剧、阅读竞赛等活动,提高学生学习英语的兴趣,从而达到自主积累、综合运用英语的目的,并指导学生运用科学的方法记忆单词、阅读课文,取得事半功倍的效果。
2、通过信息技术与学科整合的手段,以课内为基础,增加课外阅读的量,指导学生借助信息手段和工具书理解文章基本内容的方法,提高学生的英语自学能力。
3、以复述课文、回答问题、判断正误、通过上下文线索猜词义为载体,培养学生的综合阅读技能,提高学生的英语阅读理解能力。

+ 加入清单Every day, we can see the figures of the volunteers. Actually, they have
formed a kind of scenery of the city. Some people hold that volunteering is
merely a waste of time, because the volunteers have no gains with pains.

could practice our oral foreign language, it’s definitely a good opportunity to
express ourselves in a foreign language correctly and clearly.
In the second place, we could make a lot of new friends while we are
volunteering As a proverb says, “At home one relies on one’s parents and outside
on one’s friends”, so it is never a bad thing to have lots of friends.
Finally, helping others is a good way to make you feel happy and when you
help others solve a problem successful, you will feel fulfillment. In this
sense, we reap a bountiful spiritual harvest by doing voluntary work.
On the whole, we can benefit a lot by engaging ourselves in the voluntary
work. Therefore, I suggest those that have abundant spare time registering as
volunteers for the welfare for the public.

as sacrifices, is usually made up with a chicken, a fish and some pork. It’s a
symbol of the offspring’s respect to the ancestors. People believe that the
forbears will share the food with them. The children dedicate the food and money

will go down on their knees and pray for their ancestors. They can say their
wishes in front of the tombs and the ancestors will make their dreams come
true.

this day, for instance, spring-outing, swinging, tree planting and making

篇20:关于树英语高一
全文共 1329 字
+ 加入清单There was a man who had four sons. He wanted his sons to learn to not judge
things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest,in turn,to go and look at a
pear tree that was a great distance away.
The first son went in the winter,the second in the spring,the third in
summer,and the youngest son in the fall.
When they had all gone and come back,he called them together to describe
what they had seen.
The first son said that the tree was ugly,bent,and twisted. The second son
said no - it was covered with green buds and full of promise.
The third son disagreed,he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so
sweet and looked so beautiful,it was the most graceful thing he had ever
seen.
The last son disagreed with all of them;he said it was ripe and drooping
with fruit,full of life and fulfillment.
The man then explained to his sons that they were all right,because they
had each seen but one season in the tree‘s life. He told them that you cannot
judge a tree,or a person,by only one season,and that the essence of who they are
- and the pleasure,joy,and love that come from that life - can only be measured
at the end,when all the seasons are up.
If you give up when it‘s winter,you will miss the promise of your
spring,the beauty of your summer,fulfillment of your fall. Don’t let the pain of
one season destroy the joy of all the rest.
