快，开通农场游戏。暑假开始不久，我就给每个好友发出这样的邀请，为什么呢，这是个互相偷菜的小游戏，自然人多才偷得更热闹，更充满乐趣呗。

那是7月初的一个早晨，我从睡梦中醒来，第一件想到的事就是我菜地的菜快成熟了，我得起床收菜了。等我打开电脑一看，有一位好友已经在线了，比我起床得还早哦。我琢磨他也是在等着收他那快成熟的菜呢!我的菜要成熟得迟些，所以我来了个守株待兔，躲在他的菜地边打算先偷他的。在菜还有几分钟才成熟的等待中，我们开始都没跟对方打招呼，就在快要收菜的瞬间，他很突然地跟我问了声早安，出于礼貌，我赶紧回了个早安。接下来他却没有说话了，等我意识到他是在分散我的注意力，防范我偷他的菜的时候，收菜已经开始了。他比我动手早，结果我只偷到了一点。这个时候我再也忍不住了，笑了起来。现在可以聊天了吧。我说，你真狡猾呀。他哈哈哈的回了句：你还是偷到我的菜了呀。真是个简单却又充满趣味，让人好心情的游戏呀!

几天后的一个中午，我种的菜快要收了。我就在电脑前守着，哪儿也不敢去。先前打开时，我注意了下，好友在线的一个也没有，应该没有人来偷菜的。但我还是不敢疏忽，我紧紧地抓着鼠标，眼睛眨也不眨的盯着我的菜地。在菜成熟的那一刻，我点下鼠标开始抢收，可是结果仍然惨不忍睹：有3位好友在那一刻偷到了我的菜。我的动作也不慢呀，原来有那么多的好友早隐身在我的菜地边虎视眈眈的守候着了。真是个偷得辛苦、偷得热闹的小游戏啊。

种菜就是种乐趣，不管抢收自己辛苦种的菜，还是辛苦守候偷别人种的菜，都充满童真的快乐。不过希望同学们在QQ农场以及其他的电脑游戏中，适度玩乐，不要沉迷其中耽误了学习，让网络游戏在快乐中充实我们的假日生活。

Once a child asked such a question: What can I benefit from being "a good

child"? Among the many answers he received one ran like this: "A good child" is

the most precious gift God gives to you. And the same can be said for being

honest. It pays to be honest.

Yes, its true that dishonesty exists almost everywhere in the society.

Consumers often found themselves being blackmailed by those merchants selling

shoddy products; and there are students

Cheating in order to pass the exams or get high marks; moreover, we are not

short of examples that many rich professionals evade the taxes by sacrificing

the interests of government.

But havent we seen their results? "A fall into the pit, a gain in

customers wit", which would surely drive those dishonest merchants out of

business. Regret of wasting time yet being

Empty-handed would accompany those dishonest students all their life. On

the contrary, we could have all they lost, especially a good reputation and a

clear conscience, which are the best qualities of human beings. Thats why we

say "It Pays to Be Honest".

Welcome to my room ,it is not very big but it is very nice and clean ,there

are many things in my room ,near the wall is my bed ,under the bed is my

soccer,my desk is beside the window ,there are many books and a tablelight on

the desk ,the chair is under the desk ,there are many pictures on the wall ,they

are all my favorite actors and movie stars,I like their movies ,there is a book

shelf in my room ,on the shelf are my favorite books ,i like them best ,I

usually read books when I am free,I like my room very much .

今天是怿怿小班暑假的最后一天。

明天，怿怿就将进入中班，开始新的学习生活，开启一段更加丰富多彩的“旅程”。

所以，在今天这个颇具意义的日子，好好总结一下怿怿的这个暑假。

首先，身体健康。怿怿这个假期长了2斤，身高也长了2cm。这点还算不错。生活起居、饮食等方面都很有规律，早中晚三餐吃得也很好，一般早上满满一碗粥，吃得比我多啊，她总是笑称自己是“传统人”，因为早饭她就喜欢中式的粥，加点肉松咸蛋就行了，对面包等西式早餐倒是不怎么感兴趣。中午一般都是面或者馄饨，这是怿怿一直都喜欢的，自己吃得飞快。晚餐最近也很好，都能自己吃完半碗饭，荤素搭配，再加上一碗汤，营养均衡。

其次，学习能力。不管是兴趣所在，还是被逼无奈，这个假期，怿怿都坚持每天学习。写字是必修课，即使再不情愿，她也在软硬兼施下完成。二胡之前她不肯练习，但这近一个月来不错，每天都坚持30分钟以上。算术倒是怿怿喜欢的，只要我在家，几乎每天晚上都要做近半个小时，一本96页的《重点小学数学练习》已经完成了三分之二多了。现在小家伙对于10以内的加减法基本能心算了。

再次，运动水平。以前怿怿一直比较懒，对于走路极不喜欢，总是要赖着我们抱。这个暑假，我们让她多骑自行车，起先也没什么大兴趣，后来被小区里一群骑车的小伙伴感染着，也开始骑了，再后来我们把自行车的两个小轮子拆了，她居然也就这么水到渠成得骑得飞快，每天都跟在小区里一帮读小学三四年级的哥哥身后一起“飞驰”。经过每天的锻炼，小家伙更加结实了呢。除了骑车，我们还在蓝宫办了一张游泳卡，虽然还没教会怿怿游泳，但是她已经在学着憋气了，游泳学习的初步启蒙已经开始了。还有就是转呼啦圈，从之前的一圈两圈到现在能转上40来下，也是不小的进步哦。

当然，还有其他一些收获。

收获的同时，自然也发现了一些怿怿的不足，比如说，写字勉强啦、沉迷于IPAD啦、爱发发小脾气之类的。当然，有问题我们会及时指出，小家伙也很配合地表示会尽快改进。但我们当然还是以表扬和鼓励为主。毕竟，在我看来，一个假期能有这些收获，也是非常不易的，我们也非常欣慰。

明天就是9月1日了，怿怿，走进幼儿园，你就是中班的姐姐了哦。加油哦!

This summer vacation, live both relaxed and happy, but also very meaningful, is my own summer vacation. You see:

Just leave, my father took me to the Hengdian film and television city, we play the Jiangnan Water Village, the Ming and Qing Dynasties Palace, Ching Ming River and other attractions, I also put on a small grid of clothing patted, here do not have some rural flavor and mountain atmosphere, Tour finished the film and television city, I really appreciate the magnificent mountains and rivers of the motherland.

Summer vacation, learning and exercise of the harvest can be really small!

算起来，自己也上了10几年的学了，和老师打的交道也不算少的。自打到了初三，我和老师的关系就越来越密切了，隔三差五的，我就要去和老师交流下感情，那个点击率啊，真是高啊。每天，必有一次谈心。我不知道为什么，我只知道，老师特别喜欢和我聊天。

第一次月考完了之后，我不小心，在全年级进步了70多名。我并没付出什么努力，该怎么玩还是怎么玩，可能就是老前辈们说的，雨花石偶尔反一下光。所以，我上课要打瞌睡的这个习惯还是没改。有一天，我和同桌闹了矛盾，她就不帮我看着老师了，任由我睡，她也不管了，正好，上课的时候是班主任的课。结果可想而知，我被老师抓住了。老师说：“刘柏森，下课来下办公室。”我站起来点点头，说：“我可以坐下了么？”“你给我站着。”“拜托，老师，昨晚上看历史书来着，没睡好，站着，我睡不着。”全班一阵安静。老师笑了(历史老师)：“什么？昨晚上看历史？嗯，不错，你坐下吧……”忽然反应过来，“你什么意思啊？看历史你就不站了啊？站着，没什么好说的！”下课后，我到了办公室里蹲下。老师回过头，看着成绩表说：“你是不是考得好嘛！看下你成绩嘛！比上次期末……”她拿着尺子从成绩表上划下来，划到我的名字上，愣了一下，清了清嗓子说：“我们先不说这个成绩的问题，我们先说一下你上课睡觉的问题……”我无语。

某天，英语老师上课的时候，写了个句子出来全班狂笑，我也跟着笑。老师问：“这个句子错在哪里？刘柏森，你来说下。”我笑不出来了。别说，我还真没看出来哪是错的，我站起来，盯着那个句子半天说：“不知道。”老师提醒道：“几个动词了都？”我数了数：“好象多了点，3个。”老师说：“这什么句子都不是，是按照主语从句搞出来的，主语从句我都多少年没用过了，我都是二昏二昏的，你们还敢用？”我又笑起来。老师白了我一眼：“还笑，就是你写的！”我一愣，我写的？老师又接着说：“这就是你写的，还高手呢，写的都是什么啊？”我看了看我的作文本，我写的是“。”于是我说：“那个不是我写的。”“反正也是半斤八两。”我再看了看：“没错，格式是正确的。”从此，就没人再把我当成英语高手了。

摸底考试完了之后，我下降了很多，原因我就不说了，班主任大人一看成绩，顿时火冒三丈，把我叫到办公室说：“怎么回事你？是不是想其他去了？手伸出来，我要好好教训你。”说罢，拿起那把教棍，对着我的手一通乱打，然后问：“记住好好学习没有？”“记住了。”“好了，你走吧。”我抬起头，刚要走出去，老师又把我叫住：“回来！”我问：“还有什么事？”老师说：“你还有什么没说的？”我想了想，没想出来，旁边一个蹲在地上的哥们说：“一看就是不怎么进办公室的，你忘了说‘谢谢老师’了。”我一听，赶紧说：“谢谢老师。”老师点点头：“嗯，去吧。”我的那个汗啊……

我现在正在期待究竟在初三下期还会有什么样的事情发生……

this year‘s summer vacation was most enjoyable. i spent fifteen days helping my grandparents doing farm work in the countryside， where i saw mountains fields covered with green plants. sometimes i went swimming in the river to the west of the village， the water in which was quite clear.

[初中描写雨的英语作文

这个暑假天气如火一般，每天都是30摄氏度以上，热得让人难熬。

这天上午，叔叔开车带着我和我的表弟到游泳馆游泳，解解这闷热的天气，凉爽一下。

我们来到游泳馆，看见游泳馆里已经有许许多多的小朋友在玩水，有的打水仗，有的游泳比赛，可真热闹红火!

我的表弟迫不及待地跳到游泳池里，我和叔叔于是便也跳到了游泳池里，弟弟对叔叔说：“我们也玩打水仗吧!”叔叔说：“好!”于是我和弟弟站在同一战线，共同“攻击”叔叔，叔叔也不念叔侄之情，马上应战，双方打得很猛烈。叔叔采取强攻战法，水花打得特别猛。

弟弟刚刚擦掉脸上的水，又被叔叔打来的如激光的水花激得睁不开眼，喘不上气来了!弟弟呛了好几口水，无可奈何的败下阵来，向岸边逃去。我一看觉得我也不是叔叔的对手，没敢交战，也向岸边逃去。在逃去岸边的路上我看到叔叔脸上露出了喜悦的表情，但是喜悦中还带有一缕思考的痕迹。

在岸边，我和弟弟商定了一个反

攻计划，又向叔叔游去。弟弟游到叔叔前面，叔叔见弟弟年龄小，根本没把他放在眼里，朝他漫不经心地打着水花。弟弟假装被呛的样子，手捂着眼睛，又败下阵来，叔叔穷追不舍。这时候，我从叔叔背后“冲”上去，一阵“排枪”，把叔叔打得措手不及。这时候，弟弟又转回身来，也向叔叔急攻。我们俩一个前头一个后头向叔叔猛击，叔叔腹背受敌，招架不住，只好举手投降了。

钻猫儿、游泳比赛。这些都很有趣，但是我觉得还是打水仗最有趣，因为它是我亲身经历过的事情。

大家好!我的名字叫：李__，今年12岁，是一名马上要上六年级的小学生。暑假的到来令我很高兴。因为可以放松一下，快快乐乐的玩一玩。可是当我在暑假里生活时，却没有我想得那么好。

我只能对自己说一句话：“真的好累，就是累也不能半途而废，加油，相信自己能度过这个难关。”

累是因为在暑假这段时间里，我上午在家写学校布置的作业，下午去上辅导班。说起辅导班我就头疼，妈妈给我报了四门功课，有绘画、书法、英语、奥数。在这四门课中，我最喜欢去上书法课，因为它给我留下了深刻的印像。

我喜欢书法课有二种原因。第一种原因是这个辅导班的题目非常吸引人，名叫金九宫，这个题目还有一种有趣的解释：金九宫的宫格分为九块，每块都是皇帝住的地方，所以称九宫。那个金字呢?它代表着太阳，书法班的墙上写着一句话：金九宫照到哪里，哪里就发亮。第二种原因是我在这个辅导班中学到了不少知识，第一节课老师给我们讲了双姿(坐姿和握姿)，第二节课老师开始教我们点线练习和名称，教了我们四节课，老师才开始教我们练习写字。真是功夫不负有心人，我的字体大有长进。

我要对老师和同学们说：“谢谢你们带给了我知识和快乐，我会继续努力，争取更上一层楼。”

今天早上，我和爸爸妈妈、外公外婆、还有姑姑一起去我的老家摘西瓜。

一进瓜地我就看见地里有许多杂草，都看不见地面了。这时，我发现了一个绿油油的西瓜，大叫起来：“妈妈，快过来看，这里有个西瓜呢!”我再往前走，看见草丛堆里地西瓜一个接一个地躺在那里。忽然，妈妈看到草丛里有一条不知道叫什么名字的虫，我害怕极了，我的脚步不敢停留在草丛里了，我一秒钟都不想待了，我真想有双翅膀能飞起来。爸爸已经在挑成熟的西瓜了，我为了再看看西瓜宝宝，只好忍着还在草丛里继续走着。我还看到了一个西瓜爬到围栏上去了，我想这个西瓜是不是想跑出瓜地呢?然后被围栏发现给抓住了呢?

爸爸摘了好几个成熟的西瓜，一个都有十几斤重，爸爸说让我这搬运工把西瓜搬出去，好沉呀!我试了一下，还是算了吧!省的等一下把西瓜打碎了，那就不好了。

以前只在街上看到西瓜，今天在瓜地看到真过瘾呀!

Since the first day of my winter vacation, I’ve decided to make it a

valuable and enjoyable one. I made a plan to finish my homework within the first

week, and after days of hard working, I actually got all my assignments done a

day earlier. I am pretty proud of myself for not —as usual —hang out with my

friends until the last few days of my vacation and rush through my homework.

In the rest of my winter vacation, I made up my mind to improve my reading

skills. I’ve had tons of books that I simply bought and put them on my shelf,

wishing some day they would be finished themselves. But this time, I realized I

was not trying my best last term and decided to make some change. I finished a

couple of novels and watched some classic movies, I also went to a library to

borrow some new books for next term. The more I read the more enthusiastic I

became, and now I’ve developed my reading skills a lot.

Another event in my winter vacation is that I went to hiking with my

parents. It was a warm, sunny day, which is pretty precious during winter time.

I can still remember the scene when we drove

“光阴似箭，日月如梭”转眼间暑假已经快过完了。

暑假里我每天坚持七点半起床，不光完成学校的作业，还坚持天天阅读、锻炼。刚放暑假就去学而思学习了半个月，还去报名参加了小初升的刷题班。

我还看完了《西游记》原著，里面的孙悟空不怕困难、坚韧不拔，英勇无畏。唐僧慈悲善良。猪八戒的好吃懒做、迷恋钱色、重感情、讲义气。沙僧的忠厚老实。我都非常的喜欢。还看了《小英雄雨来》，沈石溪的动物小说《最后一头战象》《第七条猎狗》《导盲犬》等一系列书。

暑假里我还观看杂技表演。小丑送礼物、大蹦床、走钢丝表演、自行车技、死亡轮还有魔术、高空皮条。他们的表演之所以精彩，是因为他们平时付出了勤劳的汗水。没有随随便便的成功，每个成功背后都要付出努力。“台上十分钟，台下十年功。”我们也要向他们学习，

暑假里我还去了沙漠，沙漠的景色可真美，一座又一座的沙丘，有高的，有矮的，有平的，有尖的，凹凸不平非常壮观。还看见了平日都很少见的动、植物比如霸王花，沙鞭、小沙蜥、纳米布甲虫等等。沙漠里还有一个令我向往的运动项目——滑沙。我非常喜欢滑沙，我滑了许多次，每次都惊险又刺激，我还从滑沙悟出一个道理：人生道路犹如“滑沙”，不是一帆风顺的，其中有惊险、挫折、但只要勇于前进就一定会战胜自我，获得成功。

我还参观了《银川世界岩画馆》。岩画被分为五种，分别是人面像岩画、狩猎岩画、畜牧岩画、动物岩画和符号岩画。每一种岩画都线条流畅、形象鲜明、用笔夸张。我还亲手制作了镇山虎岩画拓片。

这就是我丰富多彩的暑假生活。

A Plan for My Summer Holiday

Summer holiday is coming. How excited! I have made a plan for my summer holiday. First of all, I will go to Hong Kong to visit my aunt. And then I will stay with her for a while.

So I will finish my homework first. After that I will go out play with my friends. And then I will take a good rest to prepare for my coming back to school.

假期计划

暑假即将来临。多么的兴奋啊!我已经为我的暑假制定了计划。首先，我会去香港拜访我的婶婶。之后我会和她呆一段时间。因为香港是购物天堂，当然我会叫我婶婶陪我一起去购物。我还要吃那里美味的食物。然后我就会回家。我知道学习是最重要的。所以回去之后我会先完成我的暑假作业。之后我就会和我的朋友出去玩。再之后我就会好好的休息来为回校做好准备。

Lily, common name for the Liliaceae, a plant family numbering several thousand species of as many as 300 genera, widely distributed over the earth and particularly abundant in warm temperate and tropical regions. Most species are perennial herbs characterized by bulbs (or other forms of enlarged underground stem) from which grow erect clusters of narrow, grasslike leaves or leafy stems.

A few are woody and some are small trees. Evolutionally, the lily family is probably the basic monocotyledonous stock, its ancestors having given rise to the majority of contemporary monocots, e.g., the orchids, the palms, the iris and amaryllis families, and possibly also the grasses.

The relationships between plants of the modern lily family are not always clear, and some botanists subdivide the Liliaceae into several families or, if they take a broader view of the family, include some groups such as the Agave and Amaryllis families.
