初中介绍长城的英语作文（精彩20篇）

长城，你是我国建筑史上的一颗璀璨的明珠。不论什么时候看，你都是那样的美。

日出东方，这个时候，你像一条渐渐苏醒的大龙。碉台四周的灯还亮着，你脚下的古镇，也缓缓步入黎明。许多人还在梦乡中，一些早起的人，已摸着黑，开始新的一天了。过了一会儿，隐隐传来公鸡的叫声，太阳出来了，但并未照亮大地，而是慢慢地升起，像极了一轮红色的大圈。红日初升，你也在朦胧中“出生”了，虽然不能看清你的全貌，但也足够了。在大山的环绕中，你蜿蜒盘旋，爬呀爬，爬到了天边。不知不觉，鸡叫了，人醒了，大地从黑夜中苏醒，你展现出一派生机勃勃的景象。

中午时分，人流多了起来，游客们都来欣赏你的雄姿。此时此刻，你像一个慈祥的母亲。为什么呢？因为你不会让一个游客从你身上摔下去，即使摔下去了，也会投入你母亲般的怀抱。山下的绿水，就是你温柔的大手，时刻保护着我们。你的脚下，碧绿的山环绕着碧绿的水，碧绿的水环绕着碧绿的村庄，这样好的环境，自然能创造出这样美的绿色生命，同时，也造就了山脚下迷人的古镇风光，更养育了中华民族上下五千年的悠久历史。长城，原来你是中华民族不可缺少、不可分割的一部分。

夜幕下，你又以另一种姿态呈现在我眼前。灯光闪烁，你像一条披着五彩衣裳的龙，在夜色中狂欢着，就连山上挂着彩灯的树，也没法跟你比。栈道上的灯，将你的台阶、路面，甚至是每一块砖头，都照得异常明亮。你就是一条灯火通明的龙，在静寂又黑暗的夜晚中，显得格外明亮。

长城啊长城，你既像一条灰色的带子，环绕在丛林绿树之中；又像一条飞龙，奔腾在层峦叠嶂之上；更像一弯银河，在红云彩雾里若隐若现。你那望不到尽头的雄姿，深深地刻在我的脑海中。

I am one year older than my cousin. Both of us are the only child in the family, so my cousin and I are very closed, we are just like the sisters. I like to share my secret with my cousin, because I don’t want to tell my parents.

I am so lucky that I have a cousin as my good friends.

The Qingming (Pure Brightness) Festival is one of the 24 seasonal division points in china, falling on April 4-6 each year. After the festival, the temperature will rise up and rainfall increases. It is the high time for spring plowing and sowing. But the Qingming Festival is not only a seasonal point to guide farm work, it is more a festival of commemoration.

The Qingming Festival sees a combination of sadness and happiness.

This is the most important day of sacrifice. Both the Han and minority ethnic groups at this time offer sacrifices to their ancestors and sweep the tombs of the diseased. Also, they will not cook on this day and only cold food is served.

The Hanshi (cold Food) Festival was usually one day before the Qingming Festival. As our ancestors often extended the day to the Qingming, they were later combined.

On each Qingming Festival, all cemeteries are crowded with people who came to sweep tombs and offer sacrifices. Traffic on the way to the cemeteries becomes extremely jammed. The customs have been greatly simplified today. After slightly sweeping the tombs, people offer food, flowers and favorites of the dead, then burn incense and paper money and bow before the memorial tablet.

In contrast to the sadness of the tomb sweepers, people also enjoy hope of Spring on this day. The Qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines brightly, the trees and grass become green and nature is again lively. Since ancient times, people have followed the custom of Spring outings. At this time tourists are everywhere.

People love to fly kites during the Qingming Festival. Kite flying is actually not limited to the Qingming Festival. Its uniqueness lies in that people fly kites not during the day, but also at night. A string of little lanterns tied onto the kite or the thread look like shining stars, and therefore, are called "gods lanterns."

The Qingming Festival is also a time to plant trees, for the survival rate of saplings is high and trees grow fast later. In the past, the Qingming Festival was called "Arbor Day". But since 1979, "Arbor Day" was settled as March 12 according to the gregorian calendar.

As we know, water is very important to man, we can’t live without water.

The amount of water which is suitable to drink is less and less. But some people

don’t care about it. They waste a lot of water in their daily life. Even worse,

they pour dirty water into rivers. They throw rubbish into rivers, too. Many

rivers and lakes are seriously polluted. Something must be done to stop the

pollution. And I think it’s agreat shame to waste while millions are in great

need of water. I think what we can do is that we have to save every drop of

water as possible as we can. For example, we must turn off the tap immediately

after we use it. We can use a basin to wash our hands and faces. It’s also a

good idea to encourage my friends and family members to join me! Only in this

way can we live happily. If we don’t save water, the last drop of water will be

a tear-drop of us. I believe if everyone makes a little effort, we can make a

big difference.

i"ll tell you an experience of myself happened last week. last thursday our school was tackling something about woking fou study. i wanted to have a try even though i knew the salary was so low and i had little chance,because the students who had the certificate were always thought to have priority to get the job. fortunately i was called at noon and a teacher said to me that she wanted me to work for her and asked if i could change my mind.

at that moment i was so excited that immediately i accepted her idea. but later on,she found me that i"m not a student,so i had little chance and suggest me to get one. then an idea occurred to me that i could call my father and ask him to send me the letter. at the same time i was told that i was admitted to the job and don"t need the certificate.

that time i forgot to remind my father,until the next day he called me that he had posted it and it would arrive in just one day. at that moment i was moved, and even moved into tears, because i knew my father was injured not long before,the process of helping me with the affairs was not so convenient for him.

but he tried his best to help me. sometimes we may complain about unsatisfying things around us,and blame them on our parents,sometimes they"ll be angry with us, and sometimes we can"t quite understand what they are thinking about. but on balance, almost every parent is selfless to his or her child. they are ready to offer everything to us when we are in bad situation. we used to sharing sorrow with them,but do not forget to share our happiness with them, perhaps they will be much happier than we are. so from now on, let"s care more about our parents and do not leave pity to them. that"s what i want to tell you today. thank you!

Do you agree that your parents have a second child? Different students have

different opinions about it.

Some students agree with the idea. They think, if so, they wont feel

lonely and there will always be someone to play with. Besides, if their parents

get older or ill, they can take turn to look after them. However, some students

disagree. They worry that they will get less love from their parents if another

child comes to the family. Whats worse, they may not get along well, or even

fight against each other.

As for me, Id love to have a brother or sister as company, so that we can

share our happiness and sorrow anytime.

The summer holiday is coming. I’m going to have a good rest and learn to

relax myself. I will read more useful books because reading more books is not

only interesting but also helps me learn more knowledge. I will try to spend

more time in chatting with my parents and help them to do some housework. I am

going to take part in the social activities so that I can know more about the

society. If possible, I’d like to make a trip to Xiamen. I’m sure I’ll have an

interesting and meaningful summer holiday. I am looking forward to it..

Hello, everybody

My name is Justin ZHAO. Its said that a persons name may reflect or determines his destiny or fate in a way.

My first name in Chinese means surpass. Life is a long and tough run to go. I must learn how to survive in this fast moving society and try to thrive.

I’m open minded, easy-going, warm hearted with a sunshine smile. I have superb and god features such as honesty and sweet temper. Also, I much enjoy making friends from all walks of life. My favorite fun is travelling around the world.

I was borned on Feb. 2, 1976. I had an elder sister two and half years older than I. Frankly speaking, I should say I had a good and memorable childhood in my life. I was not a leading student in my elementary school but in junior middle School. I scored good marks and ranked high both in my class and in the grade. Thats the honorable and shining time. Things began to change from the date I stepped into the No.28 senior high school in Shenyang. I always chose the wrong school to go to. Therefore, I learned and cherished the most remarkable experiences in my schoolings. I made a very good and dependable friend and related to him till now. I cherished it deep in my heart so much.

This is me, a man who never stops going forward!

Thank you!

lines and curves drawn on paper made into animals and scenes.

It really could show beauty to people and express my feelings. And then I

took a course so that I could get close to it and see it well.

But at that time I just did it for fun. Years went by I got into a long

period of time filled with pressure in study. And I found it so good a way to

relax.

It did not any longer play an unimportant role in my living but bacame my

friend. Since that time I have felt it like a nice person deep in my heart who

can talk with me with true words and make me happy with life.

This is my hobby not just a hobby but also a true friend.

“不到长城非好汉”。今年暑假，我抱着满怀的希望，来到了我梦想中的那个地方——长城。

清晨五点左右，汽车驶出了还在沉睡中的北京城。不一会，便看到了雄伟壮丽的万里长城。往东看不到头，往西看不到尾，连绵起伏，曲折蜿蜒。我想：我们要感谢祖先的聪明智慧和辛勤劳动，给我们留下了这人间奇迹!

“我们开始爬长城了!”老爸兴高采烈地说。我也兴奋极了，脚下像踩着风火轮，以迅雷不及掩耳之势的速度往上冲。一步两个台阶，甚至有时候一步可以登上三个台阶。我心想：这爬长城真是简单啊!

可是，事情并非我想象的那么美好。越往上爬台阶越陡，台阶的厚度也越高，简直寸步难行，到最后我的腿都开始抽筋了。这时爸爸在旁边鼓励我：“坚持就是胜利，人生的道路上也会有许多艰难险阻，我们努力了，坚持了就会有收获。看这绵延万里的长城不也是我们祖先努力坚持付出艰辛劳动后的收获吗?”于是我咬紧牙关，奋力往上爬。一个烽火台、二个烽火台……终于我爬到了终点——好汉坡。这时爸爸微笑着对我竖起大拇指说：“孩子，你想要看到这高处的美景就要付出努力。你想要收获人生的幸福就要付出艰辛。这长城高处的美景，就是你有勇气爬上来和艰辛付出后所换来的收获，明白吗?”我听着爸爸意味深长的话说：“爸，我懂了这个世界没有不劳而获，我们都要靠自己的努力来收获成果。”爸爸听了对我说：“儿子大了，越来越聪明了。”我笑着对爸爸说：“那当然，我现在站在长城上，我还是好汉。”

在这绵延万里的长城上，我和爸爸看到了一种别样的风景。

Whenit comes to online shopping, different people holds different ideas towards it.Some people seem extremely enjoy the way of buying things online because theyfeel online shopping is so convenient. Some just don’t believe that they can buygood quality commodities from Internet. As far as I’m concerned, I think onlineshopping creates lots of benefits to people.

Firstly,buying things online is a way of saving time. Compared with the traditional wayof shopping, we have no need to go out to pick up our favorite goods from storeto store. Just a click, we can have things in our shopping cart and just waitfor the goods to be delivered to us. To this extent, not only we can save thetime of finding things from store to store but we don’t need to spend time ontransportation. Thus, we can save lots of time to enjoy fun.

Secondly,buying things online can save our money. People buy commodities by Internet notonly because it saves us time, but also, we can save lots of money. It is oftenseen that some people just go to the physical store to check out thecommodities they want to buy and then they would search for their favoritecommodities online and take the order. People do this just because they knowthat online goods are usually cheaper than the goods displayed in shop windowbecause online shop have no need to pay the rent. So, people are more inclinedto buying things from online store.

Thirdly,convenience is the last but not least thing of shopping online. Since we canbuy things online, there is no need to go out to look for things we want tobuy. What we need to do is to simply sit before our computer, search for thingswe want to buy, click our favorite thing and then pay our order by our bankcard. And then, you just need to wait for your goods to be delivered to yourhome.

Inconclusion, shopping online is a convenient, time-saving and money saving wayof buying things. Therefore, we can benefit a lot from shopping online. That’sthe reason of why shopping online has developed faster and faster in recentyears.

我的英语老师并不是我的班主任，但她也并没有因为这个而更偏向于她的班级，相反，她总是一视同仁。

英语老师带着一副没有任何装饰的眼镜，就像她的性格，很直，虽然有时说话会有些重，但每个同学也都是明白他的用心良苦的;她的眉毛很浓，这也算是远看上去，老师最大的特点了吧;老师的个子也是不高，几乎全班同学都会有她高，但是她在同学们的心中却是无比高大的……但无论如何，老师的教学水平还是很不错的。

我是英语课代表，所以在英语方面我是一向不敢有一点怠慢的，在之前的每一次考试中，我也是有惊无险的坐在第一名的宝座上(在这里说一句实在话，这真的是很累，每次都得付出那么多，我也都是有一些厌烦了)。但是上次的期末考试，确实让我栽了个跟头，我的英语成绩一向是维持在140分左右的，考试这次竟然130分都考不到，这让我有些惊讶，更有些害怕，在几天后的通英语老师的交谈中，我也是从她的眼神中看到了一丝失望，这让我下定决心在今后一定要更加发奋学习。

当然，在英语方面，我也是犯了一些原则性的错误。前几天，老师突然在早上检查起了作业，要知道平日里老师是很少用课堂上的时间来做这样耽误时间的事的。可是那天，也是因为我的一些失误，作业有些未完成的没有告诉老师(再说句实话，告诉老师，真的很得罪人，就是因为怕得罪人，所以.....可是，世界上哪里有不自私的人啊?!!)也是被狠批了一顿，并跟着他们被多布置了几遍作业。对此，我很是心服，我也当然知道这是不对的，是害了同学。可是我却是因为怕得罪同学，我觉得这是我思想上的问题，今后我也应当正确承担起课代表应付的责任，真心为同学服务，所以，这也应了一开始我就说的话，老师对一切同学都是一视同仁的!

这便是我的英语老师，一个能够一视同仁，为同学着想，一个真正让我心服的老师!

学。

面对镜中的这个小女孩，高高的个子，细细的眉毛下有一双水汪汪的大眼睛。一头乌黑的短发，样子像个假小子。

这就是我。

我的性格活泼开朗，嫉恶如仇，看到不公平的事就会大发脾气，去年，我发现班上有一些同学抄袭作文，我狠狠的批评了他们，吓得他们再也不敢抄袭作文了。

至于开朗，不假，正因为这样，人们才更容易走进我的内心世界，所以，我在班上人缘很好，有许多好朋友。

我很喜欢看书。不，是嗜书如命，因为这个原因让我对写作有着特殊的情感，我的作文成绩在班上名列前茅，小有名气。

说到这里，也许有人会说了，你把自己夸成一朵花了，就没有一点缺点吗?

惭愧，惭愧，人是吃五谷杂粮的哪能没有缺点呢?我的缺点就是粗心大意，因为这四个字，让本人考试屡次受损。

我十分喜欢语文，因为语文的世界丰富多彩，数学相对就死板一些了。

我觉得世界上没有过不去的坎儿，只要努力，成功就会在不远的地方向你招手。

我将继续努力，发扬优点，克服缺点，更上一层楼。

这就是我，一个对未来充满自信，对生活充满希望的我。

Many people have favorite places they like to go to when they are feeling

sad or bored. I also have favorite places that I go to as often as I can.

Here are the three places that I like most. First of all, I like the zoo.

The animals are amazing because some are so cute and some are so ugly! I like to

pet them,feed them and watch them perform. Museums are cool places, too. They

have good exhibits and fascinating displays. I like the works of art there. Some

museums teach me a lot about history and science. From dinosaurs to robots, I

love them all. Finally, theme parks are my favourite place. I think the roller

coasters are the best. Its fun to scream and get scared.

These places always cheer me up. I try to go to each of my favorite places

once a year. I am going to find more favorite places to go to when I grow

up.

Every vacation is expected, every holiday is memorable, every holiday is worth remembering, every holiday is colorful, every holiday is wonderful. The long-awaited vacation that really makes people feel relaxed and wanted the bag flew into the air and let him ruin, hate books will be torn in two, with the solution of the heart "stuffy" school for such a long time, always feel like chanting, blankly.

In October 1st, there was an inevitable national day of golden week. I heard from my familys TV that Change two will launch and launch at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center at eighteen fifty-nine, fifty-seven seconds in October 1st this year. I took off at nineteen oclock. When I witnessed the great cause of aviation in China, I remembered the Change No.1. It has applied for more than 10 patents, and more than 80 patents are being applied. The Change two should be better because the times are improving. Ive also heard about the Diaoyu Island in China. - the Diaoyu Islands, the full name of "Diaoyu Islands" shidori called Senkaku islands". The Diaoyu Islands by the Diaoyu Islands, yellow tail Island, Akao Island, South Island, North Island, South Island, North Island and flying Seto island and other islands, a total area of about seven square kilometers. It is located in the east longitude 123 degree - 124 degree 34 ", the north latitude 25 - 4" - 26 degrees.

Think about the history of China and think about Chinas present. Though China is very weak on the surface, if todays president wants to dominate the world, China can still do it.

每一个假期都是令人期待的；每一个假期都是令人难忘的；每一个假期都是值得回味的；每一个假期都是丰富多彩的；每一个假期都是奇妙的。盼望已久的假期一到，真是让人倍感轻松，恨不得让书包飞到空中让他自取灭亡，恨不得将书本撕成两半，以解心头之‘闷’，开学这么长时间了，总觉得像念经，呆呆的。

十月一日，有一个无法忘记的国庆黄金周，这次我在家中的电视中得知了嫦娥二号将于今年十月一日十八时五十九分五十七秒在西昌卫星发射中心点火发射。十九时整起飞，当我亲眼目睹了中国的航空伟业的时候，我又想起了嫦娥一号，它已经申请了十多项专利，而且还有八十多项专利正在申请中，这个嫦娥二号应该会更好，因为时代在进步。我还听说了，中国的xx事见。——xx，全称“xx群岛”，倭人称其为“尖阁列岛”。xx群岛由xx、黄尾岛、赤尾岛、南小岛、北小岛、大南小岛、大北小岛和飞濑岛等岛屿组成，总面积约七平方公里。它位于东经123°——124°34″，北纬25°4″——26°。

想一想中国的历史，想一想中国的现在，中国表面上虽然很弱，但如果今天的主席向称霸世界的话，中国还是可以做到的，只是现在的主席想的只是和平而已。

I am a love reading girl, since I was young, I very love books, and book

gift, I will blurt out: "a book, I as long as the book." When reading, I often

forget all about eating and sleeping, as if into another world.

Reading, can make us grow many knowledge, solve the problem. On one

occasion, grandmother domesticated some hares, hares to depilate, grandma see

hares like bite lice, gradually to open mouth, the neck fur with red meat, and

then use the tongue to the sides, and behind them in a hurry to say to me: "you

see how this rabbit. Red meat are exposed, it doing?" . I to grandma said with a

smile: "it is the hair removal, then fluff will regrow of glistening." My

grandma listened to, smiled and said to me: "how do you know?" I proudly said:

Colorful in the book, read the "lei feng diary let me know how people live

to be more of others, read" how the steel was tempered "which I understand the

difficulties.

My Mother is a kind of gentle woman. She is always very gentle. She takes

good care of her children and keeps them all at school. I have one brother and

two sistets. So she gets four children in all. She gives us every comfort. We

all love her and she loves us also.

My mother has too much to do in bringing us up. As our family is too poor

to keep a servant, my mother has always to do very much work. She gets up very

early and sleeps very late every day. She works hard, yet without

complaining.

She is also a thrifty, and industrious woman. She saves every cent that she

can and keeps everything in order. As she has been busy eversince she was young,

she looks older than she really is. Her face is wrinkled, her hair becomes

silver white, but she works as hard as ever.

Often she says to us, "work while you work, play while you play. If you do

not work, you will become lazy and of no use to society." What piece of good

advice this is! We must worth it well and always keep it in our mind.
