Dear Sir,

I am highly disappointed in the proposed 2004-05 budget cuts to educa1ion.

Taking away basic aid status and slashing our school budgets is a recipe for

educational disaster in our school. The future lies with our children. They must

have access to high quality educa1ion.

My husband and I have worked hard to be able to live in a school district

that provides high quality education for our children. Cutting funding in

districts like ours will have a negative impact on property values.

The school that my daughter attends is hardly wha1 I would describe as a

"rich" school. Parents are asked to pay for books for all the classes, science

supplies and for their students to participate in the performing arts among

other items. If our school is to remain a world leader in technological

development, cutting our school funds is the worst possible choice to make.

Education funds should not be diverted away from education.

Yours faithfully,

Tom Williams

篇1:向往和平的中学生

全文共 643 字

+ 加入清单

和平是宁静,是财富,是幸福。只有在和平的环境中,世界才会美好,国家才会发展,人们才会安全幸福,孩子才会快乐无忧。所以,我非常向往和平。

但是,世界上还有很多地方战火连绵,那里的人们正陷于战争带来的痛苦中。就像现在的伊拉克。从电视中看到的伊拉克,就像是一片废墟,很多房子都倒塌了,街道上冷冷清清的,偶尔看到的人们都穿得破旧的,瘦得皮包骨,据报道,他们许多人整天只有一点点食物,城市里没有干净的水和充足的粮食供应。电视镜头前,我们还可以看到小孩子们时常在垃圾堆中出现。由于战争,环境被破坏了,食水被污染了,粮食又不够,伊拉克发生了瘟疫,许多的无辜受难者得不到治疗,许多人痛苦地死去这全都是战争带来的后果。不管是什么理由开战,战争都会带来死伤无数,使国家财产、个人财产都会受到损失,使人们颠沛流离,生活艰难。每当我看到这些场面,我的心便沉重起来。

每一场战争爆发之后,电视里常常播的是被攻的国家和攻击别人的国家,它们的情况怎么样?美国电视台经常播一些他们认为是英雄的事迹,这些人都是为自己国家利益着想的人,但在同时,他们又被对方视为仇人。他们为什么会这样呢,既被人恨又被人尊敬?

我真不明白。国与国之间发生了矛盾,难道不可以用其他办法来解决吗?不能双方坐下来好好商谈吗?战争大多数都是因为少部分人的自私心而起的。或者是为了争夺别国家的资源,或者是为了占领土地只有人们都收起自私心,才能换来真正的世界和平。如果人类不自私,我们的世界一定会变得十分美好。

战争是黑暗的,无情的,残酷的,人类啊,快醒悟吧!

篇2:我希望世界和平

全文共 680 字

从古至今,战争不断,是什么原因引发战争?资源、领土、财产成为发动战争最主要的原因。

在1937年,日本对我国发动战争,其实原因很简单,日本是一个岛国,资源贫乏,而且处于太平洋与亚欧板块交界地带,地震、火山、海啸使日本人民感到恐惧和不安。用一句话来形容,很多人挤在一只超载的船里随时就有沉没的危险。所以日本要扩大疆土,把矛头指向了我国。

在二次世界结束后,日本是战败国,迫使日本签署《和平宪法》,不允许日本拥有自己的**,只能有防卫的武器,所以日本**为——自卫队。

在中日和平交往中,两国经济突飞猛进,在日本地震后,核泄漏后,日本经济几乎崩溃,还是我国把日本经济从泥潭中捞了出来。和平发展对各个国家都有好处,可是,在2012年4月,日本东京都石原慎太郎在美国发表言论时,突然抛开了日本政府要购买**的话题。其实石原慎太郎把购买**的事都是为了他的儿子石原伸广能在民主党竞选。我很厌恶他,因为我认为石原慎太郎太自私,为了他的儿子,把这个话题,强硬的推到日本政府的头上。

石原还把从日本民众募捐的钱给政府,把福田佳彦逼的没办法。政府只好表态,要不没法再国民面前交差。这种不负责任的态度,使中日双方开始走向零度,如果我国真的开始用经济手段,其实,虽然日本损失很严重,我国的损失也很大的!

不错,我国国力上升了,可是在和平的条件下,我国发展才如此得快。假如中日大战,我国只有50%的几率获胜。虽然日本只是自卫队,但军事力量远远大于我国。

所以,我热爱和平,我还要呼吁其它人民热爱和平。我们都希望和平。所以希望日本回到和平谈判的轨道上来。只有这样,亚洲才会和平,国与国之间才能友好!

篇3:和平鸽的呼唤

你是否听到过和平鸽的呼唤?在硝烟迷漫的天空,在含着泪水的妇女眼中,在呼唤和平的人们心中,在昔日绿油油的草地上而变得有着火焰的土地上。

许多人因为战争而死去,因为战争而倒下,他们又是否听到过和平鸽的呼唤。

在那南京大屠杀的日子,遭到困难,遭到死亡的人们又是否听到过和平鸽的呼唤。

我想,他们一定听到过,他们也一定在祈祷和平。他们也一定流过泪,也一定在呼唤,他们希望泪水和呼唤能够换取和平。可是不能,那贪婪的野心,那凶猛的面孔使得人们无法自拔。

动物园的大熊猫,他们一定听到过和平鸽的呼唤,因为它们知道是战争使得它们的住处变了样,变得有着硝烟迷漫的味道,而且时不小心,天上就会掉下一个炸弹,使他们家破人亡。它们知道自己不是和平鸽,也不是神仙,但它们和人们一样,呼唤和平。

大树也一定听到过和平鸽的呼唤,在浑黄一体的硝烟中,也有人们躲在它们的背后挡住枪杀害和炸弹的剧烈声响,它们很愿意成为人们的挡盘,因为它们也在呼唤和平。

和平是一盏带着温暖的灯,是一个没有硝烟的天空,是一片铺满绿颜色的草地,是一张张人们的笑脸,祈祷和平,使我们的生活更加生辉。

让我们一起放飞和平鸽,让它们唤醒人们的雄心壮志,唤醒受到困难的动物,唤醒没有很好的生长环境的植物,来吧,让我们呼唤和平!和平!让我们的生活更加美好。

西方的文化在一定程度上可以浓缩为:权利、平等和自由。中国考生在人们该不该做什么事情或行为的时候应该多从这个方面去说服考官。

如果写到动物的保护问题时,可以说:Animals are not created for humans any more than women are created for men, black for white.

在写到政府是否该花钱来发展武器时,可以说:There is no doubt that the advancement of military technologies is one of the greatest dangers to all human rights, including the most basic right to life itself.

在写到环境的重要性时,可以说:

All human beings have the fundamental right to an environment adequate for their health and well-being.

在写到小孩子是否应该对自己犯的罪负责时,可以说:

When someone turns 18, he or she should be tried as an adult because they have adult rights. Children, however, do not have the same rights as adults do. Then, if a five-year-old child killing someone has been sentenced the death penalty, the trial that determines whether or not someone should be tried as an adult are absurd.

1937年8月28日,“七·七事变”后,日本侵略军出于扩大侵华战争的需要,又在上海发动了“八·一三事变”。日本军部先后调集了20万大军进攻上海,同时 出动100余架飞机反复对上海进行毁灭性轰炸。

这时,上海火车站黑黑压的天空上有许多架幽灵似的日本飞机盘旋着。天空下那摇摇欲坠的天桥,仿佛下一秒就会崩塌。本来热闹的火车站站台,现在已变成了堆满了尸体的站台。那本该让火车行驶的铁轨,如今却变成了堆满废墟的铁轨。

铁轨旁边有一个2、3岁的小孩正孤零零地坐着。那个小孩穿着满是补丁的破衣服,而且满脸都是灰,脚上穿着破破烂烂的旧布鞋。小孩正闭着眼睛,张着嘴巴放声大哭,大概是被天上的飞机的轰鸣声吓到了吧,他的爸爸妈妈也许已经被从飞机上扔下来的炸弹炸死了。

看,我们生活在和平的环境中是多麽幸福!而在战争中的孩子是多麽渴望和平啊!

谈到和平,每一个国家的人民没有一个不热爱和平的人民,全部反对战争。可是,世界上仍有一些难以避免的战争,给好多人民带来灾难,尤其是儿童。面对这些在战争中受苦受难的人,我一直想对他们说些什么:首先,和平的反义词就是战争,战争可能因为占领国土所以发生的,可能是是因为掠夺金钱而引发的,还有可能是因为在某个地方除了差错而引发的,既残暴,又没有意义,弄得大家天天鸡犬不宁的。

而和平能使大家过着无忧无虑的生活,天天过得非常安宁,根本不用担心战争的到来。

我的看法是:赶紧让那些处于战争中的人民去投诉国家,让他们停止这种既残暴又没有意义的事情,和其他国家一样,好好过着安心的生活。

其实作为一名中学生,我们生活在一个幸福的时代。我们拥有这幸福的生活,和谐美满的家庭,生活的激情。现在虽然是和平幸福的年代,但是世界和平并不一定是长久的。

作为一名中学生,我们从各种的方法途径去关注着这整个社会和整个世界。但近几个月中,世界发生着巨大的动态。我们就拿利比亚战争来说吧,本身这个国家发生了点动乱,就在快要解决问题的时候,以美国为首的北约和欧洲国家却不顾联合国关于世界和平的条令,公然支持反对派,对正规军发起空袭,这种不顾联合国的决定就自己发动战争的举动是可耻的,这种空袭使利比亚的许多房屋建筑以及军事基地被炸毁,许多人丧失亲人,流离失所,这惨无人道的空袭使得利比亚人们原本幸福美满和平的生活被这战争打破了。结果战局也发生了大逆转,利比亚没了正规政府,留下了反对派,还留下了许多战争创造的伤疤和人们内心的伤痕。也许有人会问我说:为什么要珍惜和平的生活?我会肯定的告诉他:当你看到了这战争后留下的巨大伤疤后,也许你就会明白为什么了。和平,这个词,对于我们来说也许是很陌生的,但是世界形势的动荡,使我们必须去认真体会这个词,去从小让这个词在我们的心灵上发芽生根,开花结果,使我们的心灵永远记住和平这个果实。如果没有了和平,也就没有了和谐美满的家庭;如果没有了和平,也就没有了生活的激情。让我们去放飞那心灵中的和平鸽,去记住那心中永存的和平果实,去永远的珍惜和保护它吧。

请珍惜我们所拥有的和平生活吧。

An October Sunrise 十月的日出

I was up the next morning be fore the October sunrise, and away through the wild and the woodland. The rising of the sun was noble in the cold and warmth of it peeping down the spread of light, he raised his shoulder heavily over the edge of grey mountain and wavering length of upland. Beneath his gaze the dew-fogs dipped, and crept to crept to the hollow places; then stole away in line and column, holding skirts, and clinging subtly at the sheltering corners where rock hung over grassland, while the brave lines of the hills came forth, one beyond other gliding.

The woods arose in folds, like drapery of awakened mountains, stately with a depth of awe, and memory of the tempests. Autumn’s mellow hand was upon them, as they owned already, touched with gold and red and olive, and their joy towards the sun was less to a bridegroom than a father.

Yet before the floating impress of the woods could clear it self, suddenly the gladsome light leaped over hill and valley, casting amber, blue, and purple, and a tint of rich red rose; according to the scene they lit on, and the curtain flung around; yet all alike dispelling fear and the cloven hoof of darkness, all on the wings of hope advancing, and proclaiming, “God is here!” then life and joy sprang reassured from every crouching hollow; every flower, and bud and bird had a fluttering sense of them; and all the flashing of God’s gaze merged into soft beneficence.

So, perhaps, shall break upon us that eternal morning, when crag and chasm shall be no more, neither hill and valley, nor great unvintaged ocean; but all things shall arise, and shine in the light of the Father’s countenance, because itself is risen.

——纪念抗日战争胜利70周年时间荏苒,日月如梭,共和国的历史彷若昨日,礼炮轰鸣,歌声嘹亮,共和国的今天繁荣昌盛。70年前的日子战火纷飞,先辈们用血肉之躯换来战争的胜利,70年后的今日国威浩荡,我们用最隆重的礼仪铭记历史缅怀先烈。

在隆隆的礼炮声中,由200人组成的武警升旗仪式护卫方队,伴随礼炮声的响起率先亮相,迈着铿锵有力的步伐从人民英雄纪念碑出发,穿越天安门广场中轴线,护送国旗走向升旗台。200名国旗护卫队员,象征中央提出的“两个一百年”的目标,行进121步,寓意着从1894年甲午战争至今121年中国人民反抗侵略的不平凡历程,中华民族不畏艰难,满怀信心,走向未来。

在整个阅兵庆典过程中,联合军乐团共演奏了30首乐曲。合唱伴奏,会前奏唱了5首歌曲,仪式和检阅奏唱了3首歌曲;阅兵演奏了包括《分列式进行曲》、《义勇军进行曲》、《黄河大合唱》等22首乐曲。这一首首不朽的战歌在血火中诞生,是抗战时期承受着深重苦难的中华民族发出的抗争怒吼,一首歌曲一段历史、一个故事、一种精神,这些抗战歌曲沸腾着每一个中华儿女的满腔热血。“狼牙山五壮士”英模部队方队、“平型关大战突击连”英模部队方队、百团大战“白刃格斗英雄连”英模部队方队……

一个个熟悉的名字,一张张坚毅的脸庞,一步步坚定的步伐,一声声响亮的口号,无不彰显着老一辈的英雄壮士气势如虹,气壮山河。战争中的老妈妈,送儿百里上战场;炮火中的好妻子,送君千里到前线。家里的最后一碗米做了军粮,家里的最后一尺布做了军服,家里的最后一个儿子送去当兵,在那炮火纷争的年代中华儿女顶天立地,宁死不屈。

坦克方队、陆战队两栖突击车方队、履带步兵战车方队、空降兵战车方队、反坦克导弹方队、自行火炮方队……一辆辆战车,气势恢宏。27个装备方队,地面突击、防空反导、海上攻击、战略打击、信息支援、后装保障等战斗模块,新型坦克、新型火炮、新型导弹、指挥信息系统和无人机等新型军队作战装备,装备战车缓缓驶来,铁甲锃亮,一枚枚导弹如宝剑出鞘,直指苍穹,展示了我们伟大祖国的日益强大。

空中梯队呼啸而来,雄鹰展翅,翱翔长空,向世人展示,中国人受欺辱的日子,已经永远一去不复返。“一个外国人,毫不利已的动机,把中国人的的解放事业当作他自己的事业,这是国际主义精神,这是共产主义精神。”这是毛泽东主席对白求恩医生的评价。当年在我们物质条件极为艰苦的情况下,有国际主义战士白求恩医生等人的支援,带来了对医护人员的培训和一部分医疗器械,帮助我国军队共渡难关。

今天,从天安门广场走过的白求恩医护方队是今天的医疗人才,我们的国家实力日益增强,医疗条件日渐良好,白求恩医护方队依然继承了当年的白求恩精神,彰显了对我国未来发展的强大信心。纪念日首都阅兵,不是为了仇恨,只是为了铭记历史守望和平。今日的中国早已不是过去积贫积弱的东亚病夫,饱经沧桑、历经磨难的中华民族,更加热爱和平,更懂得珍惜和平,今天的我们更加接近中国几千年来的复兴梦想。抗日战争的历史雄辩地证明,正是有了全体中国人民的心往一处想、劲往一处使,才汇集起夺取抗战胜利的磅礴力量。

我们要在爱国主义的旗帜下团结一心,捍卫人类尊严和历史正义,维护国家主权和世界和平,我们就一定能够开创崭新的未来,共圆中华民族伟大复兴的中国梦。

篇16:温斯顿·丘吉尔:生活侧记-名人传记英文故事

全文共 4543 字

+ 加入清单

My father, Winston Churchill, began his love affair with painting in his 40s, amid disastrous circumstances. As First Lord of the Admiralty in 1915, he was deeply involved in a campaign in the Dardanelles that could have shortened the course of a bloody world war. But when the mission failed, with great loss of life, Churchill paid the price, both publicly and privately. He was removed from the admiralty and effectively sidelined.

Overwhelmed by the catastrophe — “I thought he would die of grief,” said his wife, Clementine —he retired with his family to Hoe Farm, a country retreat in Surrey. There, as Churchill later recalled, “The muse of painting came to my rescue!”

Wandering in the garden one day, he chanced upon his sister-in-law sketching with watercolors. He watched her for a few minutes, then borrowed her brush and tried his hand. The muse had cast her spell!

Churchill soon decided to experiment with oils. Delighted with this distraction from his dark broodings, Clementine rushed off to buy whatever paints she could find.

For Churchill, however, the next step seemed difficult as he contemplated with unaccustomed nervousness the blameless whiteness of a new canvas. He started with the sky and later described how “very gingerly I mixed a little blue paint on the palette, and then with infinite precaution made a mark about as big as a bean upon the affronted snow-white shield. At that moment the sound of a motor car was heard in the drive. From this chariot stepped the gifted wife of Sir John Lavery .”

“ ‘Painting!’ she declared. ‘But what are you hesitating about? Let me have the brush — the big one.’ Splash into the turpentine, wallop into the blue and the white, frantic flourish on the palette, and then several fierce strokes and slashes of blue on the absolutely cowering canvas.”

At that time, John Lavery— a Churchill neighbor and celebrated painter— was tutoring Churchill in his art. Later, Lavery said of his unusual pupil: “Had he chosen painting instead of statesmanship, I believe he would have been a great master with the brush.”

In painting, Churchill had discovered a companion with whom he was to walk for the greater part of the years that remained to him. After the war, painting would offer deep solace when, in 1921, the death of the mother was followed two months later by the loss of his and Clementine’s beloved three-year-old daughter, Marigold. Battered by grief, Winston took refuge at the home of friends in Scotland, finding comfort in his painting. He wrote to Clementine: “I went out and painted a beautiful river in the afternoon light with crimson and golden hills in the background. Alas I keep feeling the hurt of the Duckadilly (Marigold’s pet name).”

Historians have called the decade after 1929, when the Conservative government fell and Winston was out of office, his wilderness years. Politically he may have been wandering in barren places, a lonely fighter trying to awaken Britain to the menace of Hitler, but artistically that wilderness bore abundant fruit. During these years he often painted in the South of France. Of the 500-odd canvases extant, roughly 250 date from 1930 to 1939.

Painting remained a joy to Churchill to the end of his life. “Happy are the painters,” he had written in his book Painting as a Pastime, “ for they shall not be lonely. Light and color, peace and hope, will keep them company to the end of the day.” And so it was for my father.

我的父亲,温斯顿·丘吉尔,在他四十多岁时开始迷恋上绘画,当时环境异常恶劣。那是在1915年,任海军大臣的他,积极投身于在达达尼尔海峡的一场战役中,这场战役本可以缩短那段血雨腥风的世界大战。但由于遭受失败,伤亡惨重,丘吉尔于公于私都付出了代价。他被从海军部调离且实则坐起了冷板凳。

在灾难的折磨下——他的妻子克莱门廷说:“我想他会痛苦而死,”——他携家带口来到萨利郡的一处乡间静居霍·华姆。在那儿,丘吉尔后来回忆道,“是绘画中的冥思拯救了我!”

一天他在花园散步时,偶然看到他的弟媳在用水彩作画。他观察了几分钟,然后向她借了画笔并一试身手。他的专注仿佛给他施了魔法!

丘吉尔很快就决定试试去画油画。看到他从阴暗的忧郁思中解脱出来,克莱门廷非常开心,她赶忙去买所有能买到的颜料。

然而,迈出下一步似乎有些困难,因为丘吉尔看到一块新画布的洁白无暇时感到无所适从和为难。他先从天空画起,后来他描述如何“非常谨慎地在调色板上加入一点儿蓝色调,然后以万分的小心,在这块被蓄意冒犯的雪白的防护板上点上豌豆大的一笔。这时,传来一阵驾驶机动车的马达声。约翰·拉威利先生才华出众的太太从这辆车中姗然而下。

“‘在画画呀!’她高声说着。‘可你还在犹豫什么呢?给我那支笔——那支头号的。’只见松油飞溅,她在蓝白颜料间挥毫泼墨,在调色板上龙飞凤舞,接着在吓得发皱的油画布上用力东戳西捣几下蓝色。”

那时,约翰·拉威利——丘吉尔的邻居,也是一位有名的画家—正教丘吉尔学画。后来提及他的这位特殊的学生,拉威利说:“倘若他选择绘画而不是从政,我相信他会是位绘画大师的。”

在绘画中,丘吉尔找到了能陪他度过余生大部分时光的知已。战后,在1921年,母亲刚去世两个月,他和克莱门廷就失去了他们深爱着的三岁女儿玛丽戈尔德,这时作画给了他一些安慰。在痛苦的打击下,温斯顿来到苏格兰朋友们的家中以求得安慰,用绘画来解脱自己。他在给克莱门廷的信中说:“我出外画了一条夕阳下美丽的溪流,背后映衬着晚霞的群山。唉,达克迪莉(玛丽戈尔德的昵称)使我的苦痛总是挥之不去。

史学家把1929年后的十年,也就是保守党政府垮台而温斯顿下台的时间,称为他的荒凉岁月。政治上,他一直在举步维艰的处境中徘徊,是一个孤独的勇士在努力唤起受到希特勒威胁的国人,但在艺术上他在那荒凉岁月却硕果累累。这些年他经常在法国南部作画。在现存的500多张油画中,大约250张是1930至1939年间的作品。

绘画给丘吉尔带来了乐趣直到他的人生尽头。在他所著的《画中的消遣》里说:“画家其乐融融,因为他们不会孤独。光与色,和平与希望,会始终伴随他们。”我父亲就是这样一个人。

I was so move to hear that youd like to send me to another school。 Thank you very much for your kindness。However,I cant go to school now。 I have a good job and if I go to school, I will have to give up the job, besides。 I have a good teacher who is a famous painter。He teaches me painting in my spare time。 I am so glad that you like my painting。 Right now, I am working on the new work, I think, I can send you a copy next month。 Thank you again for your kindness。

听说你们想让我去其他学校上学,这让我很感动。你们对我真好。但是,我现在还不能上学。我现在有稳定的工作,如果我去上学,我就要辞职,此外,我认识一名老师,他是一位著名的画家。闲暇时间里,他会教我画画。你喜欢我的作品,这让我感到非常高兴。我现在正在创作一幅新的作品,我想下个月送你一个复印版。再一次感谢你。

Yours

敬礼。

Lili。

篇19:和平,我们不需要战争作文400字

全文共 432 字

+ 加入清单

和平,是人们最大的幸福。可是,人们以前的世界并不和平,因为人们根本无法制止战争,因此,人们的生活变得很悲惨:夫妻离散,失儿丧女。为此,我们需要大声呼唤:我们需要和平,不要战争!

1937年8月28日,上海火车南站阳光明媚,一片热闹、祥和的气氛,站台上,人们与将要分别的亲人、朋友谈笑着。最显眼的是一对夫妇,妈妈抱着孩子,爸爸正在喂孩子吃香甜可口的大枣,孩子“呵呵”的笑个不停,幸福的依偎在妈妈的怀里。然而,幸福的人们并不知道自己的厄运将要来临——“轰”的一声惊天动地的巨响使刚刚还热闹繁华的火车站变得死一般的沉寂,这正是日本侵略者投下的一枚罪恶的炸弹。忽然,一阵啼哭声打破了这死一般的沉寂,是那对夫妇的孩子的哭声。之后,厄运还没有结束,一枚枚罪恶的炸弹接连不断的从空中飞过来,将热闹的火车站变成了弥漫着硝烟的废墟。这意味着什么?这意味着无数条无辜生命将从世界上消失,这意味着那个啼哭的小孩将会成为孤儿……

我们希望,我们祈盼——让这个世界远离战争,让这个世界永远和平!

篇20:和平节

全文共 267 字

+ 加入清单

要问我创造什么节日,我想创造一个“和平节”。

和平节会有六天假期,所有战争在假期中必须停止。

把子弹变成玩具吧!因为战争仍就威胁和平。把大炮变成日用品吧!因为战争会给人们带来不便。把战场变成居民区吧!因为战争会使人们无家可归。让战争消失吧!因为战争夺去了一个个鲜活的生命。

要问谁是最大的罪犯,我会说是战争!因为战争,多少孩子失去了父母,多少人们失去了家园?因为战争,地球大面积减少绿地,沃土,取而代之的是绵延的战火和残垣断壁……

战争,请你消失吧!我们需要和平!

如果今天是和平节,那一定是全人类的节日,地球会轻轻地说:“不要战争,要和平。”
