During the summerVacation, I think I should do something interesting and

meaningful rather than touring. So I found a job at a fast food restaurant and

worked there as a cleaner. I worked eight hours a day for three weeks. This job

was boring and seemed endless, which made me so tired that I nearly stopped it

half way. But, I stuck to it with determination. Every day I started to work

early in the morning and got home late in the evening. Finally, I finished the

job before the new school term. Now, I realize what labor means. I think it is

really a successful experience, which is worth remembering forever.

书是人们不可缺少的一部分，高尔基也曾经说过：“书是人类进步的阶梯。“

书，赋予我知识、赋予我智慧，看书是我了解到黄德甜老师所写的《语重心长》通过这本书，让我懂得了不少的人生哲理。

在我读完《语重心长》这本书后，我才发觉到书他是我们知识的一片海洋，能与书为友是最庆幸的事，在《语重心长》里，我读懂了里面的内容，是他让我明白了语重心长这几个字的理解，在生活中的我，仍然是要懂得尊重师长、尊重父母，他们的话，我们要听，因为他们的见识比我们多，所以，他们的学识、技能也比我们强;因为他们十分关爱我们，所以，他们才会反复叮嘱我们，我们千万不要自以为是，不要像一些人，在校不尊重师长、在家不尊重父母，而经常与师长、父母顶嘴，从不去想想，师长、父母是为了他好，只会心里埋怨自己的父母与师长，难免有时师长、父母是会说错批、评错你，那也要在适合的场所纠正，和必须等对方冷静下来，才和平地去谈判这件事情，而不要在对方还在气头上去顶撞他们，这样只会更加的让他们更怒气，只有心平气和、冷静才能解决问题，古句也有说国，君不闻“不听老人言，吃亏在眼前。”

At dusk，the weather became colder while the sky was gray，and the cold wind was blowing strongly.It seemed that it was going to snow soon. A moment later，the snowflakes began to fall quietly.Soon the land before my eyes was all white，like a beautiful blanket.Then it snowed more and more heavily.The trees were all covered with white quilts.The whole city became a silver world. The next morning，it stopped snowing and cleared up.I went into the yard.Looking far away，I saw a beautiful silver white world.A group of children were playing happily.Some were throwing snowballs to each other，others were making a snowman.Snow seemed to bring us warm and wishes.Cold as it was，nobaby felt cold in the white world. I love snow，because it is pure white.It brings us hope and vigour.

雪黄昏，天气变冷，天空变成灰色，冷风强劲地吹着。似乎很快就要下雪了。

一会儿，雪花儿静静地飘落下来。很快眼前的大地变白了，像个美丽的毯子。然后，雪越下越大。树儿披上了厚厚的棉被。整个城市变成了银色的世界。

第二天早晨，雪停了，天气晴朗了。我走进院子里，远远望去，我看见了一个美丽的银白色的世界，一群孩子正在快活地做游戏。一些在互相掷雪球，其他的在堆雪人。雪似乎给我们带来了温暖和祝福。尽管天气很冷，但是没有人在这白色的世界中感觉到寒冷。

我喜爱雪，因为它的纯净。它带给我们希望和活力。

[关于寒假的八年级英语日记

The Yangzte River is the longest river in China. And it s important and

helpful to us Chinese. But these days the Yangtze River is bringing us serious

floods.

Many villages were destroyed by floods. The floods made hundreds of

millions of people lose their homes, relatives and friends. Many children can t

go to school as usual .Now the foods have drawn the attention of the whole

world. People from abroad have offered their help too. In China, millions of

soldiers are busy fighting against the floods. They are working very hard. Many

of them have lost their lives in their attempt to save the villagers.

Though we can t help them to fight against floods, we should help them to

rebuild their homeland. We can present them our pocketmoney and clothes. I

believe most of the people will return to their homeland in the near future.

I like to travel to different places, I can see the beautiful scenery and

get to know the different cultures. My friends and I always travel together, we

make many plans in advance. But the plans will always be interrupted by all

kinds of unexpected incidents, like the bad weather, the holiday being

cancelled, so we have to spend another time to wait for the trip. Traveling

alone can ignore these problems, I can go to travel whenever I want, I just need

to pick up my backpack, and then buy the ticket. It is so free, I don’t have to

wait for others, I can go to the places I want to. Traveling alone is good.

Every time after school, I walk while thinking, "read yesterday? The book in there? Well... left... right, right? Right! Second row seventh on the right." The thought that can read a book, I am very happy, want to get home soon. I just came back home a voracious reading, often back too monographs and forget to do my homework, until it grew dark, I was reluctant to put down the book, open the exercise books. When do the car, because I often read a book and sat to the terminal. The book I have ever seen, there are many "five thousand years" "one thousand nights" the young big world... Every day I swim in the sea of books, go to the piranha, go to ancient savage, went to the alien to see building... Now, my belly ink also has a few barrels!

看书可以让我们遨游在知识的海洋里，我就十分喜欢看书。

每一次放学时，我就边走边想：“昨天读到了什么地方?那本书放在了那里?恩....左边...不对，右边?对!右边第二排第七个。”一想到可以看书了，我就特别高兴，想马上就到家。一回到家里我就如饥似渴地看书，常常回因为太专著而忘了做作业，直到天色渐渐暗了下去，我才恋恋不舍地放下书，打开作业本。每当做车时，我也常常因为看书而一直坐到终点站。我看过的书有许多《上下五千年》《一千零一夜》《少年大世界》....每一天我都畅游在书的海洋里，去看食人鱼、去远古看野人、去外星看建筑.....现在，我的肚子里的墨水也有几桶了!

If we want to keep our bodies healthy, we must have a good habit. We should

get up and go to bed early and sleep at least eight hours every day. Do more

exercise, such as walking, swimming, playing balls and so on. We should also eat

healthy food——more fruit and vegetable s and less meat. If you don’t feel well,

you’d better see a doctor at once. And we should wash our hands before meals and

drink enough boiled water every day. It’s necessary for our health.

We should not throw litter about, keep long fingernails and smoke etc. It’s

also very important.

When people say the word "hero", what will you think? Do you have a hero in

your heart? Maybe your hero is a famous singer, a movie star or a great-man. But

my hero is around me, who gives me more love than others. She is my mother, the

hero in my heart. My mother isnt great in the way of a famous singer or a movie

star. She does nothing big, but what she does make others inferior. From her, I

learn a lot.

When I was a baby, she taught me how to walk and how to speak. When I go to

school, she helps me solve many problems. She also tells me be kind to others.

When I do badly in study, she encourages me and tries to cheer me up. My mother

is a teacher, and she is always busy with her work. When she corrects students

homework, she is always very serious. My mother is responsible to all of her

students. She cares much about students study and life, and she tries her best

to help students in need.

My mother is a loving mother, a qualified teacher, and a real hero in my

heart.

沐浴着书香，我开始慢慢拥有了成熟的心，我是一个在阅读中成长的孩子。

以色列人教育孩子读书，是在书上抹蜂蜜，以此告诫孩子书是好东西。而我的父母教育我阅读，也是很有一套方法的。小时候，我喜欢看动画片，爸爸妈妈知道了这事以后，给我买了许多绘本。当时的动画片用的都是“五毛钱特效”，自然比不绘本上那“风沙四起”、“电闪雷鸣”的效果了。时至今日，我的书柜上还放着一套绘本故事，那是我四五岁时最爱的书。

除此之外，爸爸妈妈在我读完书后，还会出“试卷”检测我看书用不用心。有一次，我看完《西游记》后，妈妈给我留了两道题，一道是唐僧念紧箍咒的内容，一道是蟠桃园里桃子的个数。这两道题我在书里左翻翻，右翻翻，上翻翻，下翻翻，可就是找不到答案。不过，答案没找到，我倒几乎把整本《西游记》的剧情都背了个大概。爸爸妈妈经常出这种题，我在寻找那不存在的答案时，也真正把这些书读下去了。

到了大一点的时候，我开始尝试去扮演这些故事里的角色。各个角色的形象，都需要我用不同的声音、动作、神态和感情去演绎。而要演好这些角色，还是要靠读书，我把书读透了，也就自然而然地能演出理想的效果了。

在阅读中，我陶冶了我的情操，增长了不少见识，还提高了我的语言表达能力和我的写作水平。身为一个在阅读中成长的孩子，我感到由衷的幸运，因为我是一个“腹有诗书气自华”的人！

1、一个人总要走陌生的路，看陌生的风景，听陌生的歌，然后在某个不经意的瞬间，你会发现，原本是费尽心机想要忘记的事情真的就那么忘记了。

One is always on a strange road, watching strange scenery and listeningto strange music、 Then one day, you will find that the things you tryhard to forget are already gone、

2、幸福，不是长生不老，不是大鱼大肉，不是权倾朝野。幸福是每一个微小的生活愿望达成。当你想吃的时候有得吃，想被爱的时候有人来爱你。

Happiness is not about being immortal nor having food or rights inones hand、 It’s about having each tiny wish come true, or havingsomething to eat when you are hungry or having someones love when youneed love、

3、爱情是灯，友情是影子，当灯灭了，你会发现你的周围都是影子。朋友，是在最后可以给你力量的人。

Love is a lamp, while friendship is the shadow、 When the lamp is off,you will find the shadow everywhere、 Friend is who can give youstrength at last、

4、我爱你不是因为你是谁，而是我在你面前可以是谁。

I love you not for who you are, but for who I am before you、

5、爱情，要么让人成熟，要么让人堕落。

Love makes man grow up or sink down、

6、举得起放得下的叫举重，举得起放不下的叫负重。可惜，大多数人的爱情，都是负重的。

If you can hold something up and put it down, it is calledweight-lifting; if you can hold something up but can never put it down,its called burden-bearing、 Pitifully, most of people are bearing heavyburdens when they are in love、

7、我们每个人都生活在各自的过去中，人们会用一分钟的时间去认识一个人，用一小时的时间去喜欢一个人，再用一天的时间去爱上一个人，到最后呢，却要用一辈子的时间去忘记一个人。

We all live in the past、 We take a minute to know someone, one hour tolike someone, and one day to love someone, but the whole life to forgetsomeone、

8、一个人一生可以爱上很多的人，等你获得真正属于你的幸福之后，你就会明白一起的伤痛其实是一种财富，它让你学会更好地去把握和珍惜你爱的人。

One may fall in love with many people during the lifetime、 When youfinally get your own happiness, you will understand the previoussadness is kind of treasure, which makes you better to hold and cherishthe people you love、

9、年轻的时候会想要谈很多次恋爱，但是随着年龄的增长，终于领悟到爱一个人，就算用一辈子的时间，还是会嫌不够。慢慢地去了解这个人，体谅这个人，直到爱上为止，是需要有非常宽大的胸襟才行。

When you are young, you may want several love experiences、 But as timegoes on, you will realize that if you really love someone, the wholelife will not be enough、 You need time to know, to forgive and to love、All this needs a very big mind、

10、当明天变成了今天成为了昨天，最后成为记忆里不再重要的某一天，我们突然发现自己在不知不觉中已被时间推着向前走，这不是静止火车里，与相邻列车交错时，仿佛自己在前进的错觉，而是我们真实的在成长，在这件事里成了另一个自己。

When tomorrow turns in today, yesterday, and someday that no moreimportant in your memory, we suddenly realize that we r pushed forwardby time、 This is not a train in still in which you may feel forwardwhen another train goes by、 It is the truth that weve all grown up、And we become different、

I am Jack. My favorite sport is football. I often play football with my

friends. I like Ronaldo very much. I want to be a scientist in the future. This

is my dream. Steve is my classmate. He is good at swimming. He goes swimming

twice a week. His favorite player is Sun Yang. His dream job is to be a great

swimmer. What about Mary? Tennis is her favorite sport. She plays tennis every

day. Her favorite player is Li Na. But her dream is to be a dancer.

There were three of them. There were four of us, and April lay on the campsite and on the river, a mixture of dawn at a damp extreme and the sun in the leaves at cajole. This was Deer Lodge on the Pine River in Ossipee, New Hampshire, though the lodge was naught but a foundation remnant in the earth. Brother Bentleys father, Oren, had found this place sometime after the First World War, a foreign affair that had seriously done him no good but he found solitude abounding here. Now we were here, post World War II, post Korean War, Vietnam War on the brink. So much learned, so much yet to learn.

Peace then was everywhere about us, in the riot of young leaves, in the spree of bird confusion and chatter, in the struggle of pre-dawn animals for the start of a new day, a Cooper Hawk that had smashed down through trees for a squealing rabbit, yap of a fox at a youngster, a skunk at rooting.

We had pitched camp in the near darkness, Ed LeBlanc, Brother Bentley, Walter Ruszkowski, myself. A dozen or more years we had been here, and seen no one. Now, into our campsite deep in the forest, so deep that at times we had to rebuild sections of narrow road (more a loggers path) flushed out by earlier rains, deep enough where we thought wed again have no traffic, came a growling engine, an old solid body van, a Chevy, the kind I had driven for Frankie Pike and the Lobster Pound in Lynn delivering lobsters throughout the Merrimack Valley. It had pre-WW II high fenders, a faded black paint on a body youd swear had been hammered out of corrugated steel, and an engine that made sounds too angry and too early for the start of day. Two elderly men, we supposed in their seventies, sat the front seat; felt hats at the slouch and decorated with an assortment of tied flies like a miniature bandoleer of ammunition on the band. They could have been conscripts for Emilano Zappata, so loaded their hats and their vests as they climbed out of the truck.

"Mornin, been yet?" one of them said as he pulled his boots up from the folds at his knees, the tops of them as wide as a big mouth bass coming up from the bottom for a frog sitting on a lily pad. His hands were large, the fingers long and I could picture them in a shop barn working a primal plane across the face of a maple board. Custom-made, old elegance, those hands said.

"Barely had coffee," Ed LeBlanc said, the most vocal of the four of us, quickest at friendship, at shaking hands. "Weve got a whole pot almost. Have what you want." The pot was pointed out sitting on a hunk of grill across the stones of our fire, flames licking lightly at its sides. The pot appeared as if it had been at war, a number of dents scarred it, the handle had evidently been replaced, and if not adjusted against a small rock it would have fallen over for sure. Once, a half-hour on the road heading north, noting it missing, wed gone back to get it. When we fished the Pine River, coffee was the glue, the morning glue, the late evening glue, even though wed often unearth our beer from a natural cooler in early evening. Coffee, camp coffee, has a ritual. It is thick, it is dark, it is potboiled over a squaw-pine fire, it is strong, it is enough to wake the demon in you, stoke last evenings cheese and pepperoni. First man up makes the fire, second man the coffee; but into that pot has to go fresh eggshells to hold the grounds down, give coffee a taste of history, a sense of place. That means at least one egg be cracked open for its shells, usually in the shadows and glimmers of false dawn. I suspect thats where "scrambled eggs" originated, from some camp like ours, settlers rushing west, lumberjacks hungry, hoboes lobbying for breakfast. So, camp coffee has made its way into poems, gatherings, memories, a time and thing not letting go, not being manhandled, not being cast aside.

英语作文阅读：AnEmptyBox

Once upon a time, a man punished his 5-year-old daughter for using up the familys only roll of expensive gold wrapping paper. Money was tight, and he became even more upset when on Christmas Eve, he saw that the child had pasted the gold paper so as to decorate a shoebox to put under the Christmas tree.

Nevertheless, the next morning the little girl, filled with excitement, brought the gift box to her father and said, "This is for you, Daddy!"

As he opened the box, the father was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction.

But when he opened it, he found it was empty and again his anger flared. "Dont you know, young lady, " he said harshly, "when you give someone a present theres supposed to be something inside the package!"

The little girl looked up at him with tears rolling from her eyes and said: "Daddy, its not empty. I blew kisses into it until it was all full."

The father was crushed. He fell on his knees and put his arms around his precious little girl. He begged her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger.

An accident took the life of the child only a short time later. It is told that the father kept that little gold box by his bed for all the years of his life. Whenever he was discouraged or faced difficult problems he would open the box, take out an imaginary kiss, and remember the love of this beautiful child who had put it there.

In a very real sense, each of us as human beings have been given an invisible golden box filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, family, friends and God.

There is no more precious possession anyone could hold.

英语作文阅读：HappinessEquateswithFun

I live in Hollywood. You may think people in such a glamorous, fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness.

Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more abiding emotion.

Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends.

I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful inpiduals have constant access to glamorous parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells "happiness".

But in memoir after memoir, celebrities reveal the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, broken marriages, troubled children, profound loneliness.

The way people cling to the belief that a fun-filled, pain-free life equates happiness actually diminishes their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equated with happiness, then pain must be equated with unhappiness. But, in fact, the opposite is true: More times than not, things that lead to happiness involve some pain.

As a result, many people avoid the very endeavors that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment, civic or charitable work, and self-improvement.

英语作文阅读：TodayisaGift

Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was next to the room‘s only window. The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back. The men talked for hours on end.

They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation. And every afternoon when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window. The man in the other bed began to live for those one-hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside.

The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color of the rainbow. Grand old trees graced the landscape, and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance. As the man by the window described all this in exquisite detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene.

One warm afternoon the man by the window described a parade passing by. Although the other man couldn‘t hear the band - he could see it in his mind‘s eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words.

Days and weeks passed. One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep. She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.

As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, she left him alone. Slowly and painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the world outside. Finally, he would have the joy of seeing it for himself. He strained to slowly turn to look out the window beside the bed. It faced a blank wall.

The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things outside this window. The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the wall. She said, "Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you."

英语作文阅读：IsPackingImportanttoYou

A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealers showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.

As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young mans name embossed in gold.

Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" He then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.

Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make the arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things.

When he arrived at his fathers house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his fathers important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago.

With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealers name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words… "PAID IN FULL".

How many times do we miss blessings because they are not packaged as we expected? I trust you enjoyed this. Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for. Sometimes we dont realize the good fortune we have or we could have because we expect "the packaging" to be different. What may appear as bad fortune may in fact be the door that is just waiting to be opened.

英语作文阅读：TheBabyEagle

Once upon a time there was a baby eagle living in a nest perched on a cliff overlooking a beautiful valley with waterfalls and streams, trees and lots of little animals, scurrying about enjoying their lives.

The baby eagle liked the nest. It was the only world he had ever known. It was warm and comfortable, had a great view, and even better, he had all the food and love and attention that a great mother eagle could provide. Many times each day the mother would swoop down from the sky and land in the nest and feed the baby eagle delicious morsels of food. She was like a god to him, he had no idea where she came from or how she worked her magic.

The baby eagle was hungry all the time, but the mother eagle would always come just in time with the food and love and attention he craved. The baby eagle grew strong. His vision grew very sharp. He felt good all the time.

Until one day, the mother stopped coming to the nest.

The baby eagle was hungry. "Im sure to die," said the baby eagle, all the time.

"Very soon, death is coming," he cried, with tears streaming down his face. Over and over. But there was no one there to hear him.

Then one day the mother eagle appeared at the top of the mountain cliff, with a big bowl of delicious food and she looked down at her baby. The baby looked up at the mother and cried "Why did you abandon me? Im going to die any minute. How could you do this to me?"

The mother said, "Here is some very tasty and nourishing food, all you have to do is come get it."

"Come get it!" said the baby, with much anger. "How?"

The mother flew away.

The baby cried and cried and cried.

A few days later, "Im going to end it all," he said. "I give up. It is time for me to die."

He didnt know his mother was nearby. She swooped down to the nest with his last meal.

"Eat this, its your last meal," she said.

The baby cried, but he ate and whined and whined about what a bad mother she was.

"Youre a terrible mother," he said. Then she pushed him out of the nest.

He fell.

Head first.

Picked up speed.

Faster and faster.

He screamed. "Im dying Im dying," he cried. He picked up more speed.

He looked up at his mother. "How could you do this to me?"

He looked down.

The ground rushed closer, faster and faster. He could visualize his own death so clearly, coming so soon, and cried and whined and complained. "This isnt fair!" he screamed.

Something strange happens.

The air caught behind his arms and they snapped away from his body, with a feeling unlike anything he had ever experienced. He looked down and saw the sky. He wasnt moving towards the ground anymore, his eyes were pointed up at the sun.

"Huh?" he said. "What is going on here!"

"Youre flying," his mother said.

"This is fun!" laughed the baby eagle, as he soared and ped and swooped.

"Yes it is!" said the mother.

书到用时方恨少;阅读破万卷，下笔如有神;知识就是力量;书是人类进步的阶梯;书中自有黄金屋……古往今来，许多名人给我们留下了许多有关阅读的名句。

我有很多爱好，比如说：体育、网球、乒乓球等。不过，我最喜欢的还是阅读。今年，我才读六年级，可我已看了很多书。比如《西游记》、三国演义》、《水浒传》、《钢铁是怎样炼成的》，给了我许多启迪。

我没有阅读的时候，很多事情都不懂，什么东西可以吃，什么东西不能吃，什么事应该干，什么事不应该干。自从读了书后，懂得了很多事。比如：小时候，我很不喜欢妈妈来管我，妈妈叫我干事情，我就偏不干，和妈妈叫板。现在，妈妈叫我去做事，我也就去干了。

从此，我就把阅读列入了我的学习日程中，我每天挤出时间阅读，我还自创了一句话：读好书，书读好，好书读!

我一定要好好阅读，更上一层楼!

Reading is good I used to think of not be good, but, after this time, I know how much the place.

Thing is this: once, when I sitting at home reading, I read the tasteless, read for a long time I think read book is very interesting, I also learned a lot of knowledge. As I think of a once in a composition of the book in a word, this word make the article more vivid, also let my article received high praise, I am very happy, so I must read more in the future. Let their writing level is higher.

In fact, reading a lot of benefits, like can greatly extend our imagination, still can make our life more colorful, and so on. The benefits of reading have so many, we must read more books!

读书的好我以前都认为读书没什么好处，可是，经过这一次，我知道了处有多少了。

事情是这样的：有一次，我坐在家里读书，我无味的读着，读了很久我就觉的读书很有意思，我也学到了很多的知识。就在一次作文中我想到了一句曾经书中的一句话，这一句话让文章变得更生动了，也让我的文章得到了好评，我很高兴，所以我以后一定要多看书。让自己的写作水平更高。

其实，读书还有很多的好处，像可以大大扩展我们的想象力，还可以让我们的生活更精彩，等等等等。读书的好处有这么多，我们一定要多读书呀!

It’s reported that school students in Korea will use e-books from 2011.

What good news this is! E-books have many advantages.

Most importantly, they are good for the environment, since they can save

lots of paper and trees. Besides, they are very convenient. To get a paper book,

one has to spend a lot of time searching for it in a bookshop. But we can find

e-books very quickly on the computer.

In short, e-books can help us enjoy our life more.

Everyone wants to know their future, but nobody knows it. I hope my future

will like that. I think I will be an excellent lawyer in the future. I help many

people who is in difficulty. I will help the people are in need, no matter they

are rich or poor. Then I think I will have a good reputation among the society.

In order to have a good body, I will do some exercise every week. My family will

be proud of me and always stand behind me. I will work hard to reach my future.

Ok, this is the future in my dream. What’ yours?

Many people like to read books, I also like reading, the book brings us a lot of fun, also let us understand a lot of truth. Gorky once said that books are the steps of human progress, book is also the source of my courage. Book is the sea, and I am a fish, swim freely in the sea; Book is the sky, and Im a bird, fly in the sky happily.

Since I was young, I like reading, I cant read, can only see some picture books, and often let mother read it to me. In elementary school, I often is not holding a fairy tale book, is carrying a copy of a document. Over time, I like reading books, no matter what, I will watch carefully. So, I know sleep, a lot of knowledge from the book, also understand a lot of sense, from the book, we also accumulated a lot of good words. My composition level increase a lot. Im more like to read books, to see whether the book for a while before sleep every night.

From these things, I know reading is indispensable to everyone. I dont know how to express my love of reading. As long as a free, I drilled into the fairy tale world. And the Snow White and the seven dwarfs together; Cinderella and sometimes together; And sometimes, and Peter pan roam freely in the sky; And when dumbo waiting and looking forward to its mother, sometimes...

When free, I would walk into the composition and the house, to see their life and fun, think about how to enrich the life, the rich world. In a word, reading group bring you lots of fun, will enrich your life, your world. I like to read books, because I have given up a lot of knowledge and truth, I want to say to everyone loudly: "I love reading, the book has its own gold room."

许多人都喜欢读书，我也一样喜欢读书，书带给了我们人类许多乐趣，也让我们懂得了许多道理。高尔基说过，书是人类进步的台阶，书也是我勇气的源泉。书就是大海，而我是小鱼，在大海中自由自在地遨游;书就是天空，而我是小鸟，在天空中愉快地飞翔。

我从小就喜欢读书，那时候我不识字，只能看一些有图画的书，也常常让妈妈读给我听。上小学以后，我时常不是抱着一本童话故事书，就是拿着一本作文书。久而久之，我喜欢上了读书，不管是什么书，我都会认真地看。就这样，我从书中知睡道了许多知识，也从书中明白了许多道理，也积累了不少好词、好句。我的作文水平一下子提高了好多。我也更加喜欢读书了，每天晚上觉前都要看一会书。

从这些事情中，我知道了读书是每个人不可缺少的。我不知道该如何表达我对读书的热爱。只要一有空，我就钻到童话世界里去了。和白雪公主、七个小矮人在一起;有时又和灰姑娘在一起;又有的时候和小飞侠在天空中自由自在地遨游;还有时和小飞象在等待和盼望着它的妈妈，有时……

有空时，我又会走进作文屋里，去看一看他们的生活和趣事，想一想如何丰富生活、丰富世界。总之，读书会给你带来许多乐趣，会丰富你的生活，丰富你的世界。我喜欢读书，因为我从学到了很多的知识和道理，我想对每个人大声说：“我爱读书，书中自有黄金屋。”
