In the last summer, we have to say goodbye and look back. These three years, there are happy, sad...

Thank the teacher for three years of hard education and training of us, to teachers, a sincere voice: "teacher, you are hard!" At this moment, recall have gone through three years of junior high school life, we cant restrain inner excited, strong regret and feelings also arise spontaneously.

Some people say that junior high school life is a hasty book. Three years ago, we walked into one of the most exciting and admired mood. In the past three years, we have felt her warmth and richness here. Three years of time, more than 1000 pages of anger and sorrow, this is so hurried, but it has left so many wonderful pieces to us. Among them, a young naughty and naive, a sentimental failure experience, mature feeling enlightened, also has a successful history of lead a person to endless aftertastes.

In three years, we grew up with one middle school, and here is our warm home. In this joyous family, we create brilliance again and again with diligence and wisdom. We weave this warm and beautiful junior high school life with dreams and youth. Here, lets thank our alma mater with gratitude, thank all the leaders of the school, thank our beloved teacher, thank our dear classmates, and send them our best wishes.

Our junior high school life is about to draw a full end, which will also be the horn we pursue at a higher level.

There is a saying: "the idea that daily at the moment." Now, we are faced with a major challenge in our learning career - the middle school exam. This is an unusual moment, and a solemn and hopeful moment. It may be difficult, but know that when we are in the most difficult time, it is time for us to be close to success. At that time, we have to prove to the world that "there is a talent for the Jiangshan generation, each of them has been coquettish for hundreds of years!"

There is no banquet in the world. After the exam, we may be different, but the parting is also beautiful, because it is the prelude to the gathering! At that time, we might cry, but dont care. This is the evidence of youth. It is it, let us have the memory, know how to cherish. In fact, parting is not terrible, the terrible thing is that we forget ourselves. Every moment, everyone needs to be the best. I believe that we will show by our actions that we are worthy of being the best graduates in the field. Lets continue to fight against storms and go forward and realize our dreams.

We will always remember the slogan "today I am proud of one of the two, and I am proud of tomorrow."

In the last summer, were going to say goodbye.

Study is the necessary process that everyone need to experience. And then exam will follow. To obtain a good score, review is inevitable. Almost everyone wants to find the best review method. But there is no best review method, but there is the most suitable way. Different people will find different methods for them to do review. For example, some students should study in group, while some should study alone. When recite things, some need to write it down, some need to speak loudly, and some just need to read it. Different methods just depend on different people. Don’t compare with others; just find the most suitable one for yourself.

学习是每个人都必须要经历的过程。然后考试就随之而来了。为了获得好成绩，复习是必须的。几乎每个人都想找到最好的复习方法。但是，没有最好的只有最适合的复习方法。不同的人会找到不同的复习方法。例如，一些学生适合集体学习，而一些则应该独自学习。在背诵东西的时候，有些需要写下来，有些需要大声说出来，而有些则只需要看看。不同的人依赖于不同的方法。不要与他人相比较;找到最适合自己的。

曾经，当我还是默默无闻的中等生时，我是多么渴望友谊，因为有了朋友，我就有了倾诉的对象，就会有人与我一同分担，可没有，没有人在意我。我于是便在堕落的边缘徘徊。但那一次，升学考出乎意料的优秀，使我拼了命的向前，因为我要为升学考负责，我要做出一番成绩。于是，便有了如今的我。如今的我，终于实现了当初的愿望，终于有了梦寐以求的朋友，终于不再孤单，也终于找到了曾经陌生的两个字眼，友谊。在经历了风风雨雨，我再回头的某一瞬间，才发现友谊离我的距离是零;朋友，正与我手牵着手……

Once, when I was still unknown to the public of the students, how I longed for friendship, because friends, I have to talk to the object, will have to share, and I can not, no one cares about me. I then in the fall around the edge. But at that time, the entrance exam exceeding ones expectations outstanding, make my life forward, because I want to be responsible for the entrance exam, I want to make a mark. Thus, there is a person I am today. Now of I, finally realized the original desire, finally had a dream of friends, finally no longer alone, finally found the two words have strange, friendship. After a moment of groundless talk, I looked back, only to find friendship from my distance is zero; friends, with my hands......

过去的经历锻炼了我，是我能真正地重视友谊，也害怕着有一天，我退步了，朋友也成了敷衍自己的工具，想到这，我又只能发疯似的往前冲，绝不能让友谊转瞬即逝!没想到，我会为了友谊付出一切，没想到。

The past I exercise, I can really pay attention to friendship, is also afraid that one day, my friend has become worse, with their own tools, come to think of it, I was crazy to go forward, never let the friendship fleeting! Unexpectedly, I will give everything to friendship, did not think of.

A dream is to a man what wings are to a bird. With a dream in the deep hearts core， a man is spontaneously driven to hitch his wagon to a star.

A dream is an inexhaustible source of energy that keeps our enthusiasm burning， and kindles our desire to enhance our spiritual cultivation， refine our character， and upgrade our quality of life. A life without a dream is like a bird with broken wings， confined to a cage and oblivious of what lies beyond the range of its vision. On the contrary， a man with a dream is like a warrior armed with ambition， foresight and gallantry， daring to step into an unknown domain to make a journey of adventure. It is dream that adds fullness， variety， and spice to our life and makes it worth living.

I have a dream. It is a dream that is deeply rooted in human nature. I dream that one day people of all origins can live in harmony and peace without being discriminated against or persecuted. The bounty of the earth can be shared by every single human being. Mutual respect will guarantee the existence and continuation of the diversity of customs and cultures. Love， sympathy， and cooperation will alleviate the sufferings and disasters inflicted upon our fellow men. Respect for basic human rights will put an end to social injustices and evils. When my dream comes true， all men will be truly equal， happy， and free.

During May Day holiday, I went to my uncle’s home to meet my new little bother and he is a baby.

My little bother has got big eyes, a small nose, and a small mouth that looks like a cherry. But my little bother cant talk, and the only thing he can do is crying.

My little bother is very lovely. He likes frown very much. When he frowns, it looks like that he is just thinking some questions. When he falls to sleep, it looks like swimming. When he cries, the sound is very interesting. It sounds like he is counting numbers or he is singing. Maybe he wants to be a singer.

I love my little brother, Do you like him? I hope my little bother can be a super star in the future. At that time I will be proud of him.

Lost time is never found again. This is something which I learned very clearly last semester. I spent so much time fooling around that my grades began to suffer. I finally realized that something had to be done. It was time for a change. Now I have a new plan for using my time wisely. I have set my alarm clock ahead half an hour. This will give me a head start on the day. I have also decided to keep a log of what I do and when I do it. Looking back on what I’ve done will give me some ideas on how to reorganize my time.

[盘点初三英语作文：My Chinese Teacher

Late one afternoon, I was on my way home from school. I walked slowly along the street with my head drooped. The scenes on both sides of the street were beautiful, but I had no interest in them at all. I walked and walked, thinking of what had happened that day.

Just a few minutes before the second class began that afternoon, I was asked to go to the teachers office. I heard my teacher talking to my mother with anger.

How could you dare to go to see a film this morning without permission? Mother said at the top of her voice, slapping me in the face heavily. I look at Mother, dumbfounded…

I walked more slowly, for I had seen my house ahead, where Mother was always standing at the door, smiling at me, at this time every day. But now, she wasnt there. My heard was beating faster. I even didnt dare to open the door for fear that Mother should beat again.

Not knowing what to do, I sat on the ground near the door, blaming myself for what I had done. I was lost in deep agony.

Suddenly a soft hand patted me on the head. I looked up, seeing Mother standing beside me. I couldnt help crying, Mum! tears rolling down my cheeks.

In the June 1 childrens day, I got up very early, because my mother will take me to buy "TongLeGu" children present.

Come to "TongLeGu", at first glance I see that so many beautiful skirt hung on the wall, cabinet on countless toys, there are all kinds of shoes on the shoe.

Mother first chose a skirt for me. Mother to see the dress on the wall, this one, no, this one, also not line, my mother said. Suddenly, the mothers eyes shone with the light, that the shop assistant took the skirt with delicate do manual work. I know mother like the dress, I also like very much, because this dress is pink, mother like a plaid skirt, and it is very comfortable to wear. So, mother will give bought this skirt.

Next, we choose toys for mom. Mother home for us three sisters chose three barbie dolls, my mother to brother picked a gyroscope.

All chosen, the mother paid the money, we later went home.

The "children", I am very happy, because my mother bought a gift for us, so I am very happy!

在六一儿童节里，我很早就起床了，因为妈妈要带我去“童乐谷”里买六一礼物。

来到了“童乐谷”，我第一眼看到的是：墙壁上挂着许许多多漂亮的裙子，柜子上摆着不计其数的玩具，鞋柜上放着各种各样的鞋子。

妈妈先给我选了条裙子。妈妈看墙壁上的裙子，这一件，不行，这一件，也不行，妈妈说。突然，妈妈眼里闪出亮光，叫售货员把这条做工精致的裙子拿下来。我知道妈妈很喜欢这条裙子，我也很喜欢，因为这条裙子是粉色的，妈妈喜欢有格子的裙子，而且穿起来很舒服。所以，妈妈就把这条裙子给买了下来。

接下来，妈妈要为我们选玩具了。妈妈为我们家的三姐妹选了三个芭比娃娃，妈妈则给弟弟选了个陀螺。

全部都选好了，妈妈付了钱，我们满载而归地回家了。

这个“六一”，我很开心，因为妈妈给我们买了礼物，所以我很高兴!

There was a sad music in the church, a parting song, and the children in front of the Jesus prayers were praying silently... At this point, what are the children praying for? Why are they so serious? Because its a graduation ceremony, because its their last day here...

Look at these kids pious face, listening to this copy from rolia song, tears blurred, I cant help remember three years ago, our graduation......

In the scorching summer, cicada son calls became the only tune, and we in the classroom, only the hearts of the coming of the senior high school entrance examination is full of infinite tension and anxiety.

Every day, after a hurry to do what everyone needs to do, immediately turn into a stressful study. A white paper in our hands is constantly checking, instead of the past summer, our hands those cute little fan; an English listening test repeatedly play, instead of the past, we listened to pop music; one to ask, instead of the old days in the classroom frequently heard the sound of the dozen...... Everything was insignificant in the face of the coming exam.

It seemed to be a long time in the past, and suddenly, at that time, like a page that had been turned over, it had not been carefully read, and it was in a hurry. The sound of the June alarm sounded, and our atmosphere was more tense. All the years, anyhow, graduation ceremony will be open, always a day to let us present ah, write the students... But we didnt do anything at that time, the reason was very simple, and everyone thought it was not necessary.

In this way, we have a graduation exam, and we just want a good result on the exam. At the end of the last exam, we gathered together, and the teacher just said something about the exam results, and hurriedly took a photo of graduation, didnt say goodbye, didnt do many other things like other graduates, and graduated.

After the mid-term examination, I found that the so-called "victory" didnt bring much joy to me. I thought that if theres a good result, there will be a happy summer vacation. But in those days, I found that it was too boring, even though I wrote a lot of homework every day, but there was always less...

Once, I walked into a gift shop close to our school. The boss asked me if I was too dull to graduate this time. He said he led a lot of gifts, such as the gift of graduation, but there were not many people in our school. He also jokes that the people we are now are getting less and more human.

After that, I thought seriously about what the boss said, and I had to admit that he was right. At that time, we only care about the results of the exam, but we have ignored the classmates and teachers feelings so long that only those scores are the only ones we want to pursue. If we were able to take a day to open a graduation ceremony and write to each other a communication address and contact, then our summer vacation would not be so boring. Its a pity that we didnt understand it at that time...

Maybe years later, when we turn over this page, we will find a blank place, a place that will never be filled out...

We didnt make mistakes three years ago. Today, we face the college entrance examination in an unhurried way, attend the graduation ceremony actively, and draw a successful conclusion for our senior high school life.

What can I do for the 2010 Shanghai World Expo?

[关于初三英语的作文：教师节的礼物

导语：英语写作能力作为体现语言交际能力至关重要的一个方面,写作测试是对学生书面交际水平及能力进行检验最有效的途径。以下是yjbs作文网小编为您收集整理的写作技巧，希望对您有所帮助。

要想获得高分就应在“正确”表达的基础上写出自己的特色，写出自己的“亮”点。

一、词汇选择——标新立异

在写作中“较高级词汇”的使用主要是指使用《大纲》上没有的词语、使用通过构词法变化来的新词、使用同(近)义词或反义词等来代替常见词语。

1)这栋房子在芳草街的一栋楼上。

A: The flat is in a building on Fangcao Street.

B: The flat situates in a building on Fangcao Street.

分析:is in是常见词语，而situates in则是《大纲》上没有的，属于高级词汇。

2)在周末我们做很多作业。

A: At weekends, we have a lot of homework to do.

B: At weekends, we have endless homework to do.

分析:B句在表达时没有使用过于直接的a lot of，而是使用了endless。endless就是由《大纲》词汇end加后缀-less变化来的。

3)洗澡间和厨房都很好。

A: The bathroom and the kitchen are good.

B. The bathroom and the kitchen are well-furnished.

在表达要点时，B句使用了well furnished,这比good语气强，也显得生动。

在造句时,“较高级词汇”如能运用贴切自然，哪怕整篇文章只用上一个，也会使你的作文显示出与众不同。

二、结构造句——与众不同

在造句时,既要使句子生动，又要使其简明扼要。

1、使用与人不同的表达方式，特别是提倡打破汉语句子结构的束缚而重组的句子更受欢迎。

1)唐山曾在二十世纪八十年代发生过一次大地震。

A: There was a strong earthquake in Tangshan in the 1980s.

B: A terrible earthquake hit/struck Tangshan in the 1980s.

大多数同学使用了there be结构，这是对的，但是B句却摒弃了常见句式。另辟蹊径而使用了“主语+谓语+宾语”结构，且使用了terrible,hit/strike这样的词汇，更是难能可贵的。

2)你八月十五日的来信我今天早晨收到了。

A:I received your letter which was written on August 15th this morning.(多数人使用的方式)

B: Your letter of August 15th reached/ got to me this morning.(与多数人使用的方式不同,简洁)

2.使用一些强势句式，如强调句、感叹句、倒装句等，增强语句的表现力。如：

3)阿福救了我妹妹。

A: Ah Fu saved my sister.(一般句式)

B: It was Ah Fu that saved my sister.(强调句式)

4)我们看到庄稼和蔬菜长势喜人很是高兴。

A: We were glad to see crops and vegetables growing well.(一般陈述句)

B: How glad we were to see crops and vegetables growing well.(感叹句)

3、句式多样,复杂得体。在写作中应避免使用相同长度的相同句型，而应注意句式的变化，如长短句结合，简单句、并列句与复合句共用，还可使用简化句等;一些较复杂的结构如独立主格，分词结构等也可使用。下面的表达中A句简单句多，而且多处使用there be结构，显得单调、乏味，而B句就有自己的特色(请同学们自己分析)。

5)这是一套25平方米的住房，住房里面有卧室、有洗澡间、有厨房;卧室里有床、沙发、桌子和椅子等。

A: Its a flat of 25 square metres. There is a bedroom in the flat. There is a bathroom and a kitchen in it, too. In the bedroom, there is a bed; there is a sofa, a desk and a chair as well.

B: Its a flat of 25 square metres, with a bedroom, a bathroom and a kitchen. In the bedroom there is a bed, a sofa, a desk and a chair.

三、布局谋篇——独具匠心

在写作中，我们可按时间、空间或其它逻辑顺序来安排各要点，同时为使主题突出,结构严谨，我们应注意学习和使用交代句以及段落的主题句等。在布局谋篇上，NMET2002范文堪称典范。请看：

Opinions are divided on the question.

60% of the students are against the idea of entrance fees. They believe a public park should be free of charge. People need a place where they can rest and enjoy themselves. Charging entrance fees will no doubt keep some people away. What is more, it will become necessary to build gates and walls, which will do harm to the appearance of a city.

On the other hand, 40% think that fees should be charged because you need money to pay gardens and other workers, and to buy plants and young trees. They suggested, however, fees should be charged low.

1)该文使用Opinions are divided...作交代句，开门见山，随后两个段落均使用了主题句(见黑体字部分)，使全文结构紧凑，表达严谨。

2)在表述要点时范文还对要点出场顺序作了调整，如“40%的同学认为应收门票，但不宜过高。”前部分作为主题句放在句首，而后部分另起一句放在句末：They suggested, however, fees should be charged low.这样就分清了轻重缓急，主题突出，条理清楚。

3)范文使用了and, what is more, however等连词，在段落之间使用了on the other hand(说明前后两个观点是相悖的)，这些连接手段的运用加强了句子之间、段落之间的联系，使文章表达连贯，浑然一体。

4)范文在第二段为说明不收门票的“原因”时增加了Charging entrance fees will no doubt keep some people away.等细节，这也是解决句与句之间缺少连贯性的常见方法。

写作技巧：

一、要善于模仿

对大多数学习英语的同学来说，英语的词汇量、句式的积累还极其有限，远不能达到用英文流畅表达，挥洒自如的境地。在这一阶段进行创作是不合时宜的，如果非要创造，只能写出“long time no see”这样的文字来。因此，模仿是这一阶段的必经途径。

谈到模仿，一些同学的办法就是背一堆范文，然后再到考场上进行一个“剪切”、“粘贴”的工作，效果可想而知。这不是真正意义上的模仿，充其量算是默写课文。如何模仿呢?

首先，模仿的目标要明确。模仿的重点永远要放在一定的句式结构上，而非个别的词汇。道理很简单：一个词，随着文章内容的变换，可能就不能用了;而句式结构是放置四海而皆准的东西，适用的范围广，学来对写作的帮助也就明显。

其次，模仿的材料要地道。像新概念英语这样的教材就提供了很多原汁原味的英语表达法。盲目选择文章学习，记一些不中不洋的句子，以讹传讹，浪费时间。

最后，模仿要体现在实际动笔上。比如说，新概念第三册有一个句式说：“…for the simple reason that…”表示某种现象的原因是什么，用在大学英语考试中，我们就可以拿来解释为什么自行车在中国如此的流行，表达为：“the bicycle is very popular in china for the simple reason that…”。然而，很多同学经常背了这些句式不用，一谈到原因仍然是“…because…”，等等。

二、要灵活变通

在批改英语作文的过程中，经常能发现一些将中文生硬地翻译成英文的表达法。由于中英文之间的差异和词汇量、表达法积累的不足，出现难于表达的情况是十分正常的。关键问题在于如何处理。有一句话叫做“立志如山，行道如水”，套用在这个问题上就很合适。写英文作文，一定要有决心把它写好，有信心把意思表达清楚，这是“立志如山”;但关键是遇到问题时要有个灵活的态度，能像流水一样变通解决问题。

有个翻译界的故事说：在某大型国际会议的招待会上，一道菜是用鸡蛋做的。与会的客人问翻译：“what is it made of?”本来是非常简单的一个问题，结果翻译太紧张，忘了“egg”这个词，但是他急中生智，回答：“it is made of miss hen’s son.”这里，就是一个灵活变通的范例。绕道表达，是写作中应该常常运用的一种方法。

三、要细心观察

要写好英语作文，还要带着敏锐的目光细心地观察，注意英语中一些表达上的习惯。

比如说，在正式文体的写作中，很少用 “it isn"t”这样的略缩形式，而往往是一板一眼地写作 “it is not”。同理，在正式文体中的日期一般不缩写，阿拉伯数字一般会用英文表达(特别长的数字除外)。

再比如说，翻翻新概念第三册所有的课文，会发现凡是一段文章的段首句出现转折时，转折词however都放在句子结构中的第二部分，以插入语的形式出现。分析原因，是因为段落一开始就用转折词，会时转折显得较生硬、突兀。

最后，许多同学在写作文时，习惯于把 “since” “because” “for”这样的词放在句首引导原因状语从句。事实上，在我们见到的英语报刊杂志文章中，这样的从句一般都是放在主句之后的。另外, “and”也常常被误放在一句话的开头，表示两个句子之间的并列或递进关系。其实，经常留心地道的英语文章能发现，如果是并列关系，完全可以不用连词;如果是递进关系，用 “furthermore” “what is more”更为普遍。

My mother is very good at raising plants and flowers. We have plants and flowers indoors and outdoors all the year round. Some of our plants were very small in the beginning,but now they are large and very beautiful. On top of our roof there is a big glass-enclosed greenhouse. All our friends love to come to our house to see the beautiful world my mother has made for us. Every morning and evening we see my mother taking care of her plants like little children. As her real children grow older and more independent,my mother devotes more time to her garden. This is a very good way to spend one’s free time.
