写小白兔的英文作文（汇编20篇）

昨天，我弟弟考完试卷后就上他同学家去了，干什么呢？嘿嘿，告诉你吧！他去拿小兔子去了。半小时后，他回来了，竹筐里多出了一对毛茸茸的东西——可爱的小兔子。

见到兔子，我就迫不及待地观察起来。这两只兔子，全身的绒毛都是白色的，嘴巴小小的，而且是三瓣的，吃起草来一动一动的，有趣。小白兔的两只眼睛又红又圆，而且亮，像两只有光泽的玻璃球。

它们的耳朵长长的，全身的绒毛很光滑，摸起来有蓬松的感觉。小白兔的尾巴短短的，而且他们的前腿短，后腿长，走起路来一蹦一跳的，既可爱又活泼，它们喜欢在草上蹦来蹦去，一会儿围绕花坛转一圈，一会儿钻进草丛里，像是在玩“捉迷藏”的游戏，真有趣啊！

看了一会儿，我和弟弟就为对这两个小兔子取名字的事商量开了。经过一番讨论，小兔子的名字就诞生了，那只公兔子的名字叫“淘淘”，母兔子的名字叫“珍珍”。它们现在是我们家中的一员，是我们全家人的小天使，掌上明珠！

Dear Mr Wang:

We are so pleased that you are willing to share our views.

In the course of the general revision,What we need is solid foundation. Methods are vital,so could you please introduce some learning keys?We think it can help us much better.

Could you please teach us slower? We should have time to understand everything we learnt .Then we can learn the nature not the surface.

We also need to practice the important and easily wrong difficulties again and again. And we wont get puzzled when we meet the similar questions.

Doing homework is a way to make sure if all of us can control the knowledge.We hope that there will be less homework in order to increase the quality.

Besides,inspire us more and well do better than before.

从前有一只可爱的小白兔，它有一双黑乎乎的黑眼睛，似两颗黑黑的黑宝石，有一条长长的尾巴，像一根长绳。

有一天上午，在一条大马路上，出了一场危险的车祸。小熊猫正要去上学呢，一辆车飞快地开了过来，幸好小白兔以迅雷不及掩耳之势跑过去。一瞬间，小白兔一把把小熊猫推开了，可是小白兔的尾巴被重重的压了一下，小白兔骤然间哇哇地大哭了起来，泪水哗哗地流了下来。

小熊猫赶紧把手机拿了出来，给老马医生打了一个电话，说：“老马医生，你快点儿来呀！小白兔为了救我，它的尾巴被狠狠地压了一下。”老马医生说：“好的，我马上就来。”老马医生来了，看了一下，地上的血非常多，小白兔的尾巴血淋淋的，又红又疼呢。

老马医生说：“你的尾巴必须得剪断！”小白兔大吃一惊，忽然，小白兔眼睛变红，像两颗红彤彤的红宝石。从此，小兔子天天不敢见人，但伙伴们都说它很可爱。后来小白兔又快乐地过着生活。

我们应该要向小白兔学习，牺牲自己去救弱小。

我奶奶家养了几只可爱的小白兔。

这些小白兔都有一对长长的大耳朵，它们的听觉很灵敏，哪怕有一点动静，耳朵就会竖起来。它们还有两只红宝石似的眼睛，在伸手不见五指的黑暗处闪闪发光。最逗人的是那张三瓣嘴，吃东西和呼吸的时候，向三面翘开，露出粉红的牙床。

有一次我想摸摸它们，于是我就走到笼子旁打开门儿伸手去摸它们，可是它们一个个都躲得很远，不让我摸，于是我就抓了把草放到了笼子边上，这下它们可都跑过来吃草了。我心想：兔子就是兔子，一见到草眼睛都亮了。称它们吃草时我又伸手去摸它们，可它们还是躲远了。因为它们的听力很好，所以我就打算放弃了。可是正当我准备离开的时候，突然有一只小兔子跑了过来，好像答应了我的请求。于是我试着去摸它，果然这只小兔子没有跑，于是我就把它放在手上吃草，它不仅没有乱动还很安静地吃草。

这就是我奶奶家的小白兔。

森林旁边住着一只全身雪白雪白的小白兔，长得又活泼又可爱，妈妈给它取了个名字叫“乖乖”。

一天，天气晴朗，阳光明媚，兔妈妈对乖乖说：“乖乖，你不是很喜欢吃蘑菇吗？今天天气这么好，妈妈带你去采蘑菇，好吗？”“好啊！”乖乖兴奋地说。于是它们穿好衣服，挎着篮子，高高兴兴地出了门。

它们来到了森林，哇，那里好多蘑菇啊！有红的、黄的、绿的、紫的，五彩缤纷，好看极了。乖乖满心欢喜地采了一朵粉红色、有花斑点的蘑菇，正当它想把蘑菇放进篮子里的时候，兔妈妈突然跑过来，对乖行说：“乖乖，这蘑菇不能要，好看的蘑菇是有毒的。”乖乖感到很奇怪，问：“妈妈，这蘑菇不是挺好看的吗？怎么会有毒呢？”“傻孩子，不一定好看的就是好东西啊。”妈妈从地上采了一朵灰色的、不起眼的蘑菇继续说：“这灰色、不起眼的才是好蘑菇啊！”乖乖说：“哦，原来好看的东西不一定是好的，不起眼的东西也不一定是坏的。”兔妈妈高兴地说：“对啊，乖乖真聪明！来，让我们一起来采那些不起眼的灰蘑菇吧！”乖乖说：“好啊！”于是它们兴高采烈地采起蘑菇了，不一会儿，它们采到了满满一篮蘑菇，乖乖不禁地说：“真是大收获啊！”

不知不觉，太阳下山了，乖乖和妈妈高高兴兴又满载而归地回家了。

清晨，太阳公公露出了灿烂的笑脸。一朵朵白云在天空自由自在的玩耍，碧绿碧绿的小草长出来了，五颜六色的小花开了，小蝴蝶和小蜜蜂也在花丛中翩翩起舞，可是小白兔却没有心情。这是为什么呢？原来它是嫌自己的尾巴太短了。于是小白兔开始踏上借尾巴之旅了。

小白兔决定 向小猴子借尾巴，小兔子说：“小猴子，你能把你的尾巴借给我吗？”小猴子说：“不行啊，我的尾巴是用来爬树的，要是借给你，我就不能爬树玩耍了。”

于是小白兔又决定向小鸭子借尾巴。小白兔说：“小鸭子，小鸭子，你能把你的尾巴借给我吗？”鸭子说：“不行啊，我的尾巴还要用来游泳呢，要是借给你我就不能游泳了。”

小白兔又决定向小松鼠借尾巴。“小松鼠，你能把你的尾巴借给我吗？”小白兔说。小松鼠说：“不行啊，小白兔，我的尾巴还用来保暖了，要是借给你，我就不能取暖了。”

小白兔想小伙伴们都不愿意借给我尾巴，我还是回家吧。走着走着，又碰见了小花猫。小白兔又满怀期待问：“小花猫，你能把你的尾巴借给我吗？”“不行啊，小白兔，没有了尾巴，我就不能保持平衡了。”

小白兔只好垂头丧气的回家了。到了家小白兔伤心极了，呜呜呜的哭了起来。兔妈妈看见了，她说：“孩子，每只小动物的尾巴都有自己的用处，适合自己的才是最好的。”

早晨，天上晴空万里，太阳调皮的钻进了小白兔的卧室。树上有许多鸟儿在唱歌，把正睡在被窝里的小白兔吵醒了！小白兔懒洋洋的伸了个懒腰，揉了揉眼睛，然后自言自语的说：“今天一定是美好的一天！”

小白兔吃完早餐后，快乐地向小棕熊家跑去。她敲了敲门儿，不一会儿，门打开了，小棕熊一看是自己的好朋友小白兔，连忙请她进屋。小白兔和小棕熊不是看电视，就是做游戏！笑声引起了周围小蝴蝶，小蜜蜂们的注意。它们自言自语到：“要是我们可以跟他们一起玩，该多好呀！”正玩着，小白兔发现了小棕熊放在鞋柜上的指南针，好奇的说：“这是什么呢？”小棕熊说：“这是指南针，是我爸爸从国外带回来的，指南针可以辨别方向。”小白兔又问：“那迷路的时候，是不是用指南针就可以回到自己家了呢？”小棕熊说：“那当然！我爸之所以带回来，就是因为怕我一个人去森林里玩耍的时候迷路了，才带回来的嘛！”说完，这一对小伙伴就活蹦乱跳的往森林山坡的方向走去了。

它们在山坡上追逐，打闹，可开心了！鸟儿都跟它们一起玩呢！有一些鸟儿如同闪电一般，一会儿飞到这儿，一会儿飞到那儿！还有大部分鸟儿围着小白兔和小棕熊翩翩起舞。也有少部分鸟儿为它们伴奏！原来悄无声息的森林变得热闹非凡。它们的笑声传遍了每一个角落。

小白兔说的果然不错，今天就是美好的一天。

夜幕悄悄降临，小动物们都玩累了。他们在洒满月光的道路上有说有笑的走着！可能过不了一会儿，小白兔睡着后，还会沉浸在那些美好的事件当中呢！

春天来了，花红柳绿。小白兔提上篮子去采蘑菇。它走着走着，看见小河对岸的一颗大树下面有一簇簇的蘑菇。

小白兔把脚伸进河水里。可怎么也踩不到河底。它明白是河水很深。这时，它看见大象伯伯正在河水中洗澡。小白兔急忙对大象喊道：“大象伯伯，水太深了，您能不能帮助我到河对面去？”大象回过头看见是小白兔。大象就说：“可以呀。我走过来，你爬在我背上，我带你过去。”

大象走到小白兔身边，让小白兔跳上它的背，从小河中走到对岸。小白兔从大象背上跳下。“谢谢！大象伯伯。”大象说：“不客气。”

小白兔高兴地去采蘑菇了。

A man who is careful in choosing friends will certainly derive benefit from

them。 Why? Because there are more false friends than real ones in this world。 To

have one real friends is better than a hundred false ones。 Friends who flatter

you to your face are not true friends。

We must make friends with those who have good character and kindness of

heart。 On the other hand， we should do our best to a void keeping pany with bad

people。

Dear Miss Brown,

I am writing to express my sincere thanks to you for caring me in the last

two years. During the days of being your student, I learn a lot. Firstly, your

serious attitude towards teaching and our students moves me too much. You

inspire and push me to work harder and harder. Secondly, I fall in love with

English under the influence of you. As a student of science and engineering,

I’ve been thinking that English does no good to me, but you help me to find the

fabulous glamour of English that leads me to know a totally different world and

develop a different way of thinking. Finally, your continuous encouragement

supports me a lot when I meet challenges or difficulties. You said that

everything to the last will certainly become a good thing, if it is not, not yet

to the last. Every time, remembering your words, I am so inspired to keep

going.

Above all, I want to say thank you again and please accept my sincere

appreciation. Best wishes for you.

我养了只小白兔，名叫“宝宝”，它非常可爱。

兔子刚买回来以时，我一看，长长的大耳朵，红红的眼睛滴溜溜直转，尾巴像个小毛球，一身雪白的绒毛，真逗人喜爱!我买了一个小笼子放在楼顶，当成它的家。

小白兔的胆子很小。只要一见到陌生人，就会躲起来，身子缩得很紧，十分害怕。刚买回来的时候，对我也不例外。后来，我一写完作业，就上楼顶喂青菜给它吃。晚上睡觉的时候，我常常把小白兔抱到床上来，抚摸它，任凭它在我身上跳来跳去。我还给这只可爱的小白兔起了个名字，叫 “宝宝”。不久，胆小的宝宝渐渐地和我熟悉了。

一天夜里，我又想把宝宝抱来玩。可是，走到楼顶笼子旁一看，笼子里空洞无物。我钻到床底找起来，东找西找，翻箱倒柜的，可就是找不到。妈妈听见声音，就过来问我在干什么，我说宝宝不见了。于是，我们母女俩一起找起来了，可哪里还见小白兔的影子呢?妈妈又劝我:“时间太晚了，明天再找吧!”我听了，哭着钻进被窝，又过了好久，才迷迷糊糊睡着了。第二天一早，我醒来就看见宝宝忽然出现在我的眼前，我一阵惊喜，抱起它，高兴地说:“宝宝，我们昨夜找你，你为什么不出来呀?

虽然这件事情之后，我更加疼爱它了。小白兔，成了我真正的宠物。

When cellphone became popular many years ago, parents and school at first

banned students to take cellphone into classroom, but now, even the small child

has owned a cellphone. The use of cellphone cant be banned. For students, they

get used to keeping cellphone at hand, but the overuse of it can be blamed to

their parents. Some parents dont set good examples for their children. When

they are together, they just leave cellphones to kids and let them kill the

time. If they show the beautiful scenery around and teach kids to appreciate the

world. Then cellphone wont take up their time.

我的小白兔有着毛绒绒的白毛，两只耳朵向上竖着，眼睛像红宝石一样明亮，鼻子小巧玲珑，可以闻得见任何气味儿，还有它那张三瓣嘴，吃东西的速度比我还快。因为它胖嘟嘟的很可爱，所以我叫它“小胖”。

这个小家伙意外地成为了我们家的一员。有一次，我们一家在野外露营，晚上睡觉我突然觉得有个毛绒绒的东西在我手边跳来跳去，我缓缓地睁开朦胧的睡眼，一看，原来是一只活泼可爱的小兔子啊！我顿时大吃一惊，把它搂在了被窝里。第二天，我告诉了爸爸妈妈这件事，因为它实在太可爱了，所以爸爸妈妈不想拒绝我，只好答应我把它抱回家。

它是我们家的调皮鬼。很多人说：“白毛野兔是抄家大王。”可是我却不赞同，但如果你了解我们家的小胖你就知道了。每次等我一出门，它就像反了天一样，上蹿下跳地跑来跑去，把家里弄得一团糟，我一回来就有一种感觉：“家没了！”所以我只好把它关在了笼子里，任凭它怎么用渴望的眼神求我要出去，我都不会答应的。

它也很贪吃，只要是能吃的，没有一样它不敢吃的。为什么说它贪吃呢？因为除了玩和贪吃，其他时间它只会睡觉。每次吃东西它都有特点，有时狼吞虎咽，有时细嚼慢咽，那样子憨憨的十分有趣！它吃一顿饭是我的三顿饭，怪不得它吃得胖乎乎的呢！

这就是我家的“小胖”，一只活泼可爱的小兔子，即使它很调皮捣蛋，又那么贪吃，可我一直不埋怨，因为我喜欢它！

从前，森林里有一只非常嫉妒别人的小白兔。

一天早上，小白兔出去散步，看见她的好朋友刺猬，穿着一件非常漂亮的衣服。刺猬问小白兔：小白兔你觉得我身上的衣服漂亮吗？小白兔嫉妒的说：有什么了不起的，一点也不漂亮，还很丑呢！小白兔我恨你，我不跟你做朋友了。刺猬生气地说。

小白兔继续往前走，走了一会儿，她又见到了自己的朋友松鼠穿着一对新鞋子，可漂亮了。小白兔又对松鼠说：松鼠，别以为你穿上一对新鞋我就会羡慕你，你想都别想。松鼠听了对小白兔大声地说：小白兔，你别看不起人。说完，松鼠就火冒三丈地走了。小白兔的眼睛在逐渐变红。

小白兔回家的时候，见到了长颈鹿。长颈鹿头上戴着一顶帽子。小白兔见了，就迅速地跑回家，因为小白兔不想见到她的朋友了。

小白兔回家以后，爸爸发现了她的眼睛是红的，就赶紧把小白兔送去医院，查看病因。

小白兔到了医院，医生给她做了个检查，发现小白兔是因为嫉妒别人造成眼睛变红。医生对小白兔说：如果你不可以在三天之内改掉这个坏毛病就会永远这样。回家的时候爸爸也对小白兔说过这句话。

可是三天之后小白兔没有改掉这个坏毛病，所以兔子都是红眼睛的。

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。

During last summer vacation I paid a visit to my uncle’s. It was the first time I had seen the sea. Tow years ago my uncle a closed friend of my father transferred from Shanxi to Yantai a beautiful port city; and then my aunt joined him a couple months later. And a year later I became their guest and was going to stay with them for a week. I was fascinated by the vastness of the sea the clean and soft sand on the beach the seagulls flying in the sky and the beauty of the golden sunset clouds over the dark blue water. But I missed the sunrise each day for I couldn’t get up early enough.

On the fifth day the alarm clock woke me up when it was still dark outside I hurried to the beach and stood in the cool breeze there the sky was turning grey little by little the sea was calm and all was so quiet that I felt I was surrounded by mysteries then suddenly in the faraway horizon golden beans of light were shooting up into the sky. A moment later a corner of the sun appeared. The sun was rising very slowly and reluctantly as if it was unwilling to leave the sea. At last the entire sun lay on the horizon so big and so red it looked like a huge ripe orange or a tender half-boiled yolk. It hesitated and shivered a moment then said goodbye to the sea and rose into the air. The scene was very beautiful touching and magnificent which I’ll never forget.
