全文共 561 字
+ 加入清单在校园的红白跑道上,一架架各式各样的纸飞机在空中飞旋,一阵阵叹息声、惊呼声和议论声此起彼伏。那热闹的场面,就是我们在举行的纸飞机大赛的现场。
随着裁判的一声号令,又一波花花绿绿的纸飞机在一条颜色分明的标有米数的带子边飞去。不过,它们有的飞到三等奖线就赖在地上不动了;有的一飞出去,机翼就摇摆不定,跌跌撞撞地滚落下来;还有的像火箭一样,“冲了”上去就直线下坠,猛地砸在地上。就在同学们忙着捡飞机时,一架独树一帜的飞机从人群中飞出来,雪白的机翼像白鹤的翅膀,上面的记号隐约可见。它轻松地滑翔了一会儿后,像游隼一样转了个优美的弧线,平稳地落在草坪上。裁判喊到:“一等奖!”人群顿时沸腾了,有人指着那架飞机说:“哇!那架飞机都超过带子了!”有人情不自禁的鼓起了掌,更有人飞奔跑向那架飞机的主人,请教怎么折这架纸飞机呢!不一会儿,飞机的主人跑到草坪边,像拿着宝石一样捧着它跑走了。许多同学开始更加努力地完善自己的飞机并不断练习,越来越多优雅的纸飞机出现在赛场上,同学们的心情越来越激动,一个个摩拳擦掌,恨不得马上轮到自己大显身手。
在人群渐愈鼎沸的声音和欢快的脚步声中,纸飞机大赛落下了帷幕。想必同学们回家会兴奋地跟家人分享这个盛大的场面吧?想必他们也会把自己参赛获奖的飞机保存在书架上吧?下一次比赛一定会有更多精彩纷呈的场面!好期待!

篇1:飞机奇谈作文400字
全文共 397 字
+ 加入清单过年期间,哪种交通工具最受欢迎呢?当然是飞机了。这下好了,有人就问了:飞机安全吗?
这个问题很难说。虽然飞机的出事率是所有交通工具中最低的,但是……一旦碰上了那就100%完蛋了!况且,网络上,新闻里,到处都是某某飞机出事,死亡高达几十几百人,甚至千人的消息,都快成家常便饭了。
就我个人来说,飞机还是有点可怕的。光是想想,这么大架铁鸟载着这么多人,在这么高的空中飞,玖冒了一身冷汗。想想还不算恐怖,更恐怖的,还在后头呢!坐在两个人中间,那个才叫更恐怖。上厕所得挤出去,超麻烦,而且超有封闭感,特别是坐在两个胖子中间,额……接下来的就不说了。想体验下的,就试下呗。
其实,飞机上选座位也是个学问。坐前排最好,看着空姐淡定的表情,就不那么害怕了。而选在后排呢,看着前面人头晃动,光看着就害怕。
总而言之呢,我对飞机还是有种“敬而远之”的心态。什么?你问我那么害怕飞机还坐飞机?那自然是抵挡不住旅游的诱惑啦!

+ 加入清单课外的活动之我见 My Views on Extracurricular Activity
Some students like to participate actively in after class activities. They think after class activities are an integral part of school life. By going in for such activities, they can learn what they cant learn from books, which will be beneficial to them in the future.
一些学生喜欢积极参与课外活动。他们认为课外活动是学校生活不可或缺的一部分。通过参加这些活动,他们可以从书本上学到什么,这对他们将来是有益的。
Others, however, dont like after class activities at all. They think that a students work at school is learning theoretical knowledge and nothing else. Taking part in after class activities is a waste of the valuable time at school.
然而,其他人,不喜欢在所有的课外活动。他们认为学生在学校的工作是学习理论知识,没有其他的东西。参加课外活动是浪费宝贵的时间在学校。
In my opinion, every student should engage in some after class activities because from these activities we can learn many valuable things that we wont learn in classrooms. School is not just a place for learning the difference between "lie" or "lay", or what caused the hours of the daily schedule. Finally, after class activities broaden our circle of acquaintances. No amount of ordinary school work can take the place of friends acquired in the informal familiarities of activities.
在我看来,每个学生都应该参加一些课外活动,因为从这些活动中,我们可以学到很多宝贵的东西,我们在课堂上不学。学校不仅仅是一个学习的地方,在“说谎”或“奠定”,或是什么造成了每天的时间表。最后,课外活动拓宽我们的熟人圈子。普通学校没有多少工作可以在非正式熟悉收购活动的朋友的地方。

篇7:坐飞机作文800字
全文共 900 字
+ 加入清单今年的一次坐飞机让我觉得特别难忘。
那天,因为爸爸看错时间,我们提早了整整三个小时就到了机场。
终于登上飞机了。空姐们开始忙着关闭行李舱,检查旅客安全带的系扣情况。广播里开始播放安全注意事项,乘务员们站在通道中间给大家做动作示范。有趣的事情发生了——广播里开始重复提醒飞机即将起飞,让大家不要在这个时候上厕所。谁知话音未落,大大小小的孩子都不约而同地赶着上厕所,厕所门口一下子排起了长队。哈哈哈,我也没有例外。
几分钟后,飞机关了灯在跑道上慢慢滑行,排队等候起飞。大约重复了十几分钟的滑行、停歇、滑行、停歇之后,窗外的景物突然飞快地穿梭而过,飞机一下子腾空而起,在半空中左摇右摆地颠簸着。过了好一会儿,飞机总算找到了平衡。透过窗户,我看见脚下有一座灯光璀璨的大桥,雄伟地横跨在钱塘江上,路灯绚烂摇曳的灯光将整个江面辉映得五彩斑斓、如梦如幻,真是美不胜收!
很快飞机飞到了云彩上面,我惊喜地大叫:“妈妈——彩虹!橙、蓝、红、黄……”我的手不自觉地拍打着妈妈的手臂,提醒她不要错过眼前的美景。看着云彩,我突然感觉自己到了大海上,挨挨挤挤的满天云朵,在夕阳的烘托渲染下,就像是波光粼粼的海面。要是飞机的窗户能够打开,我真想把手伸出去,抚摸一下这些软绵绵的云朵。
飞机平稳地在高空中滑翔。窗外越来越黑,慢慢地只能见到天边云天相接处的一道金色夕阳。机舱里的灯亮了,大家开始了各自的安排:有的看起了杂志,有的玩起了手机,有的吃起了零食,有的开始闭目养神……
有趣的事情又发生了。空姐第三次推着售货车过来,我想买一罐可乐,就递给她15元钱,她收了钱,转过头问我:“whichone?”顺手从货车上拿了一盒饼干给我,像是在问我“是这个吗?”我赶紧摇摇手回答“不是这个,我要可乐”,空姐一脸不解,转过头看着我妈妈。妈妈不知所措地摊摊手摇摇头,和我大眼瞪小眼。无奈的空姐只好从推车边上翻出一本图册递给我们。我用手指指了指可乐,她当即明白了,把一罐可乐和一杯插着吸管的冰块递给了我。我赶紧说了句:“Thanks!”喝着可乐,我心中一下子明白了学好英语的重要性。
这次坐飞机让我有了前所未有的体验,好期待下次坐飞机又会有什么样的不同感觉!

篇9:纸飞机伴我同行作文800字
全文共 801 字
+ 加入清单每当我们仰望天空时,总有那么几架飞机在天空中行驶,当我们躺在草坪上,四周被花儿包围着时,总有几只蝴蝶在花朵上飞来飞去,微风略过,花朵上的香味扑鼻而来。
午后的阳光总是那么刺眼,走在马路上,在不远处有几个孩子在不停的欢笑,放眼望去,他们每个人手机都拿着一张纸,上面写了字然后又折成了纸飞机,嗖的一声,纸飞机飞上了天空,在阳光下显得格外清晰,又一个纸飞机飞的越来越高,一会便落在了我的脚边,我捡起了纸飞机上面写着我希望我长大后可以做一名飞行员,带着爸爸妈妈飞上天空,多么美好的愿望,纸飞机伴随着风的方向飘去了远方……
也许每一个人都渴望像鸟儿一样的飞翔,展翅高飞,向着蓝蓝的天空出发,去到自己想去的地方……
飞翔在字典里有许多解释,如,小鸟在天空中飞翔,飞机飞翔,也可以解释为梦想在飞翔。一个个小小的纸飞机,一张张孩子的笑脸。纸飞机上写有孩子们纯洁而有美好的愿望,就这样,纸飞机出发了,行驶在了蓝蓝的天空中,它必须历经风雨,不怕任何困难和挫折,才能飞翔自己想去的地方,正如同长风破浪会有时,直挂云帆济沧海。历经艰难后一定能达到梦想的彼岸。
这是,便在我的脑海里浮现了一首歌,“隐形的翅膀,带我飞,飞向远方”。小时候我也有着自己的梦想,我也会把梦想写在纸飞机上,让它带我的梦想飞上蓝天,因为小时候都会以为把梦想写在纸飞机上就一定可以实现,但是现在想想实现梦想必须靠自己的努力,纸飞机只是会把我们的梦想带上蓝天,而实现它必须靠我们自己努力。
我们现在在教室里学习,就像在外面的纸飞机飞翔一样,我们必须战胜那些难题,而纸飞机必须战胜那些困难,我们在前进,它也在前进,而当我们解决出一道难题后正如同山重水复疑无路,柳暗花明又一村。而纸飞机经历磨难后正如同不经历风雨,怎能见彩虹,当我们获得优异的成绩时,纸飞机也会带着我们的梦想到达了彼岸,纸飞机就是我们学习道路上的好伙伴,伴着我们成长,前进
纸飞机伴我同行,带着梦想一起飞翔。

+ 加入清单生活中,充满着喜悦、悲伤、无奈、激动……当然也少不了紧张。至今,我回想起那一次,心儿仍旧怦怦跳。那是今年的中秋小长假,我要到郑州去玩。爸爸不能陪我去,所以我只能自己坐飞机,去找出差的妈妈。
在去机场的路上,我怀里像揣了一只兔子,一直在乱蹦乱跳。我问了爸爸好多的问题:飞机上有坏人吗?空姐空少凶不凶?飞机出了故障怎么办?飞机上有没有其他小孩?……不过紧张之余,我还有些小激动——这是我第一次一个人坐飞机,我能像大人一样照顾自己吗?
到了飞机场,爸爸把我交给空姐。我和爸爸依依不舍的分了手,跟着空姐进了安检口。这时的我提心吊胆的,身边没有爸爸妈妈,我感觉孤零零的。但是我觉得我自己是一个勇敢小孩,所以我像大人一样,一边给自己打气,一边镇定地交上登机牌,把行李抬进安检仪,举起手做安全检查。
等到了飞机上,我发现,飞机上没有坏人,空姐和空少对我很友好,还客气地给了我零食,飞机一直平稳地飞行着,我心中悬着的大石头终于落了地。虽然飞机上没有其他小朋友和我玩,但是我可以自己玩。我拿出随身带着的《西游记》,津津有味的看了起来,看累了,我就吃点零食或看看窗外的美景。这时的心情是欣喜若狂,恨不得马上见到妈妈。
飞机落地了,我跟着空姐和机长最后离开了飞机。我见到妈妈,一蹦一跳的向她跑过去,兴奋地喊起来:“妈妈,我能像大人一样自己坐飞机啦!”
篇11:纸飞机
全文共 407 字
+ 加入清单开学的第一周就这样过去了,伴着欢笑与无奈……
还记得星期五的下午,我和贾某玩了纸飞机,在别的同学眼里我们两个也许很幼稚,很无聊,甚至有人调侃道:“玩它多没意思,要玩就玩真的!”但他们不会体会到玩纸飞机的乐趣。
在将纸飞机扔出去的瞬间,在心里许个愿,让纸飞机带着我的梦,飞呀飞,飞过繁华的都市,飞过宁静的乡间,带着我的梦,来到他身边……
我不知道纸飞机究竟会飞多远,飞多久,会不会飞到他的身边,会不会将我的梦带给他,但我知道,即使纸飞机飞不到,可它会尽力的,尽力完成一个女孩的梦……
我多想用力一扔,把纸飞机送上天空,让它带着我的梦去飞,但我做不到,纸飞机就在我和贾某之间飞来飞去,画出漂亮的弧线,有时还会出现小的事故,纸飞机“失控”一头扎进雪堆或者是光荣的“牺牲”了。
课间的10分钟就在纸飞机的陪伴下快乐的度过了。唯一美中不足的就是:我不会折纸飞机,飞机坏了还要求同学帮忙折。
纸飞机总会降落,但降落的地点又是一个新的开始!

飞机,我来了
我沿着通道来到飞机旁,这个气势无比磅礴的“巨人”就屹立在我的面前,仿佛活得一般。这“巨人”的肚子里能装下那么多人吗?这是拍电影吗?我进入飞机,坐在位子上,兴奋激动。随后,一大波乘客像潮水般涌过来,不会把“巨人”的肚子撑破吗?
天空,你好
舱门徐徐关上,漂亮的空姐们也都上了飞机,我们系好安全带,等着去天空翱翔……“轰——轰轰”起飞了,震耳欲聋的声音,像龙一样吼叫,像海豚一样尖叫。起飞了!飞机冲破朵朵云层,我成功地在天空中翱翔啦。我喊道:“天空,我来了!”
大概过了二十分钟,飞机终于平稳了。我解开安全带,看着那被夕阳映衬得红红的云霞,那被橙色所渲染的天空,我的心灵世界留下瑰丽宝贵的踪迹……

篇17:愚人节英文优秀作文
全文共 2400 字
+ 加入清单However, communications being what they were in the days when news traveled by foot, many people did not receive the news for several years. Others, the more obstinate crowd, refused to accept the new calendar and continued to celebrate the new year on April 1. These backward folk were labeled as "fools" by the general populace. They were subject to some ridicule, and were often sent on "fools errands" or were made the butt of other practical jokes.
This harassment evolved, over time, into a tradition of prank-playing on the first day of April. The tradition eventually spread to England and Scotland in the eighteenth century. It was later introduced to the American colonies of both the English and French. April Fools Day thus developed into an international fun fest, so to speak, with different nationalities specializing in their own brand of humor at the expense of their friends and families.
In Scotland, for example, April Fools Day is actually celebrated for two days. The second day is devoted to pranks involving the posterior region of the body. It is called Taily Day. The origin of the "kick me" sign can be traced to this observance.
Mexicos counterpart of April Fools Day is actually observed on December 28. Originally, the day was a sad remembrance of the slaughter of the innocent children by King Herod. It eventually evolved into a lighter commemoration involving pranks and trickery.
Pranks performed on April Fools Day range from the simple, (such as saying, "Your shoes untied, or I accidentally stepped on your glasses!), to the elaborate. Setting a roommates alarm clock back an hour is a common gag. Whatever the prank, the trickster usually ends it by yelling to his victim, "April Fool!"
Practical jokes are a common practice on April Fools Day. Sometimes, elaborate practical jokes are played on friends or relatives that last the entire day. The news media even gets involved. For instance, a British short film once shown on April Fools Day was a fairly detailed documentary about "spaghetti farmers" and how they harvest their crop from the spaghetti trees.
April Fools Day is a "for-fun-only" observance. Nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take their "significant other" out to eat in a fancy restaurant. Nobody gets off work or school. Its simply a fun little holiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever vigilant, for he may be the next April Fool!

+ 加入清单新任的台湾地区领导人蔡英文:
您好!
话说您在选举时,便声称“要独立”,台湾人民大部分反映的都很响!果不其然,在马英九退位后,您直接同日本、美国交好,决心脱离大陆。
但“台独”对您和台湾有什么好处呢?
在您胜任之前,台湾人民与大陆交往甚好,不少大陆人飞往台湾欣赏美景,也有不少台湾人在大陆落地生根安居乐业,您为何要打破这种平静美好呢?
当然,您会觉得您不是大陆人,而是台湾人,但是你不能连累整个台湾岛。
您难道没有发现美国、日本虽然和你有来往,但他们却没有和您走的太近吗?在他们眼中,您和台湾就一棋子,台湾根本不是大陆的对手。
没错,台湾是后来才回归大陆的,你们虽然一直不认为自己是中国人,要独立,但大陆却一直把你们当做自己人呐。
你再想想,台湾如果真的独立了,中国身为“世界第二大经济体”,你们的日子会好过吗?
但如果您和台湾回归大陆,大陆必定以礼相待。虽然在短时间内台湾民众会产生怨念,说你“骗了他们”,但日子长了,他们就会感受到这样做带来的好处。
两岸的关系更进一步,是台湾和大陆都希望看到的。
大陆和台湾就像兄弟一样,之间不应该有缝隙。
大陆和台湾就像母子一样,大陆张开双臂,如台湾想回到母亲的怀抱,大陆会立刻送上火热的胸怀,迎接台湾这个浪子迷途知返,扑入母亲怀中。
回来吧,台湾,蔡英文,你想想。
此致
敬礼!

+ 加入清单暑假刚开始,好朋友聪聪的妈妈与我妈妈早就约好了两家人要利用假期去云南游玩。这是我第一次坐飞机,内心充满了期待。
飞机上,我和聪聪在高一声低一声地拌嘴。
“哇!开始飞起喽,好高啊!”紧靠窗边的我兴奋的往外张望。
“让我看看。”聪聪紧挨着我坐,他侧着身子使劲往窗边探着头。
“不要不要,不让你看。”我故意拿话逗他,实际上却将窗户的位置让出来。
“呶,快看那里有只羊!”我指着一朵像极了小羊的白云对他说。
“你竟然敢骗我,看我不把你的头踢飞。”聪聪挥挥拳头大叫。
哈哈,可算把你骗住了。这时,我又想出了一个小游戏,于是对他说道:“要不我们来玩个游戏吧,看谁能赢。”
“什么游戏我都会玩,只管放马过来吧”聪聪得意的说。
“是吗,提醒你一下,那可不一定哦。”比赛开始了,我搬出语文课本里大家都知道的一个词语“春回大地”,他马上习惯性地接了下一句“万物复苏”。
“错!”我拿手臂在胸前比了一个大大的叉号。
“我哪里错了,课本上不就是这一句嘛”他不服气的叫道。
“应该接着往下说成语。比如地大物博。”我得意的对他说。
聪聪挠挠头,他这才明白,原来是要成语接龙啊!
