课余时间的英语作文(汇编20篇)

The Value Of Time

I always think there is not enough time. For example， I have just taken a three-day holiday. But when I look back， I just feel that it‘s only one day. There goes a proverb， “Time is money”。 Now I want to say， time is more precious than money， because when money is spent， we can earn some more again. However， when time is gone or lost， never will it return.

Time goes without being noticed. The time for our study and work is usually limited. So I think we must make full use of our time. But it‘s a pity that I am always not aware of the importance of time until it’s too late.

So I think， I should get into the good habit of saving time because wasting time is equal to wasting one‘s life. Do not put off what can be done today till tomorrow!

[高中英语作文:时间的价值

有句老话是时间等于金钱。但时间真的一定等于金钱吗?未必。首先时间比金钱宝贵。金钱花完还可以再挣，而时间如果浪费了就一去不复返了。因此某种程度上，时间是无价的。其次，并不是所有的时间都能变为金钱。有些人整日游手好闲，他们的时间是用来浪费的，而不是用来挣钱的，最终将一无所得。因此务必要记住，只有努力工作，时间才能等于金钱。

Time Doesn＇t Definitely Mean Money

As a popular saying goes, Time is money. But does time definitely mean money? I don＇t think so. First of all, time is more precious than money. When money is spent, you can earn it back if you want to. However,when time is gone, it will never come back. To some extent, time is priceless. Second, not all time can be turned into money in the end. Some persons are idling all the time. Their time is just for wasting, not for earning money. They will end in nothing at last. So be sure to remember that time can be turned into money only with hard work involved in it.

[关于时间未必等于金钱英语作文

For thousands of years, animals have trodden a slow path, their spirits together with the body. But our human beings transportation is too fast. The body moves but the soul is left behind. We try to free ourselves in convenience, but we only imprison the soul. Since we invented how to count hours, we do everything to short the time, short the deadline. But the time saved cant be shorten. Nowadays, we spend lots of time staying in front of a TV just changing the channels, while we have no time to talk with a good friend or play with our family. We have plenty of time to search old news on the internet, while we hardly think about our life. In the end, the only thing apparent is our loneliness.

Take your time, please. Try to follow the natural steps and have your own clock. Try to share your time with everybody you love, share your mind, your happiness and sadness. Try to read the world we live in, do not only catch a quick glimpse at the society.

Someday, when we know how to spend every second in our life, we can then live our own life.

我的课余生活可以说是丰富多彩的，有跳绳。打羽毛球。下棋。吹葫芦丝……可是我最喜欢的还是吹葫芦丝。

我第一次吹葫芦丝练习的是《粉刷匠》这首曲子，(.)虽说曲子很简单可是我不是指法错就是节拍错。

我把葫芦丝放回盒子里想放弃了，忽然感觉到一股力量正在鼓舞我，它对我说：“坚持就是胜利，你一定可以做的更好！”

我一下就觉得浑身充满了力量，越练越起劲，不知不觉的我竟然能吹下来了。当时太高兴了大声的叫嚷：“我会吹了，我会吹了。”

这声音惊醒了正在睡觉的妈妈，妈妈揉了揉眼睛说：“来，吹一遍。”我鼓起勇气吹了一遍，妈妈高兴的说：“吹的真棒。”

我的学葫芦丝之旅从此就开始了。我喜欢吹葫芦丝，因为它不但把我带进了音乐的世界还锻炼了我手指的灵活性。

With the development of thesociety, people pay more concern on whether choose a high-paying job with longhours or a low-paying job with short hours. There are different opinions on it,and the topic become more and more conspicuous.

随着社会的发展，人们对是否选择一个高薪却工作时间长还是低报酬而工作短的工作给予了更多的关注。它有不同的意见，这个话题越来越突出。

Every coin has two sides. The twochoices have their own advantages and disadvantages, but I support that ahigh-paying job with long hours is better. One of the reasons is that I am aworkaholic, a high-paying job with long hours can afford more opportunities tomake great progress to challenge myself, and the success will satisfy my senseof achievement to a great extent. And what I want to emphasize is that this isan economic society which requires me to see the reality clearly. A high-payingjob means a high position in the society, so I can get more respect andadmiration from others. I should also take on the responsibility of providing abetter life for my family, such as a big house, a private car, plenty of food,beautiful clothes, the best education and medical treatments and so on. What’smore, in the long run, with a high paying-job, I’ll save up much money for thelife in the future, in other words, even though I retire in old age, I canstill give my family an easy life. Last but not least, we are young now, if wedon’t work hard, what do we live for when we get old in the future?

每个硬币都有两面。两种选择都有它的优点和缺点，但我觉得高薪却工作时间长是更好的。其中一个原因是因为我是一个工作狂，一份高薪而工作时间长的工作可以提供更多的机会去取得很大的进步并挑战自我，在很大程度上成功也会满足我的成就感。我想强调的是，这是一个经济型社会，需要我清晰地看清现实。一个高收入的工作意味着社会地位高，所以我可以得到更多他人的尊重和钦佩。我也要负起为我的家人提供更好的生活的责任，如一个大房子，一辆私家车，充足的食物，漂亮的衣服，最好的教育和医疗等。更重要的是，从长远来看，拥有一个高收入的工作，我可以为将来的生活节省很多钱，换句话说，即使我老了，退休了，我还可以给家人一个安逸的生活。最后但并非最不重要的是我们现在还年轻，如果我们不努力，我们将来变老了该以什么为生呢?

In short, when we are young andstrong, working hard is the best choice. Cheer up! Come on!

总之，在我们年轻力壮的时候，努力工作是最好的选择。打起精神，加油!

谚语是广泛流传于民间的言简意赅的短语，多数反映了劳动人民的生活实践经验，而且一般都是经过口头传下来的。接下来是小编为你带来的和时间有关的英语谚语。

Time is the greatest teacher.

时间是最好的老师。

Time tries friends as fire tries gold.

时间考验朋友，烈火考验黄金。

Time means life,time means speed,time means strength.

时间就是生命，时间就是速度，时间就是力量。

What may be done at any time will be done at no time.

常将今日推明日，推到后来无足迹。

Time is a file that wears and makes no noise.

光阴如锉，细磨无声。

Never put off till tomorrow what you can do today!

切勿将今日能干完的事推到明日;明日复明日，明日何其多

To save time is to lengthen life.

时间就是生命，节省时间就是延长生命!

One of these days is none of these days.

拖延时日，终难实现。

Nobody knows what time is like,for we cannot see it,nor can we touch it.Time is abstract,which we can only imagine in our mind.

But we do know that time passes very quickly. Some students,however,do not know the value of time,nor do they know how to make the best use of it,for they waste it in going to films,playing games and doing other useless things.Why do we go to school early in the morning? Why do trains run so fast? Why do most people prefer taking buses instead of walking? The answer is very simple: we wish to save time because time is precious.

Today we are living in the twentieth century. We know that time is life.When a person dies,his time has ended.Since life is short,we must devote our time and energy to our studies so that we may be able to serve our country and the people. But since time is invisible,we often neglect it. Lazinss. is the thief of time,for lasiness not only brings us a lot of harm,it also brings us failure. If it is necessary for us to do some work today,let us do it today and not leave it until tomorrow. Remember that time is more valuable than money.

[参考译文]

谁也不知道时间是什么样子，因为我们既看不见它，也摸不着它。时间是抽象的东西，我们只能凭脑子去想像它。

但是我们的确知道时间流逝得很快。然而，有些学生却不知道时间的价值，也不知道如何充分利用时间，他们把时间浪费在看电影、玩游戏和其他一些无聊的事情上。我们为什么一大早要去上学呢?火车为什么跑得那么快?为什么大多数人愿乘汽车而不愿步行办事呢?答案非常简单：我们想节约时间，因为时间非常宝贵。

如今我们生活在20世纪，我们知道时间就是生命。当一个人去世的时候，他所有的时间便用完了。既然生命短暂，我们必须把时间和精力用于学习，以便为祖国和人民服务；但由于时间是看不见的，我们经常忽视它。懒惰是时间的盗贼，它不但给我们带来许多危害，也会使我们失败。如果今天我们有什么要做的工作，让我们就把它做完，不要拖到明天。记住时间比金钱更宝贵。

We use both words and gestures to express our feelings, but the problem is that these words and gestures can be understood in different ways.

It is true that a smile means the same thing in any language. So does laughter or crying. There are also a number of striking similarities in the way different animals show the same feelings. Dogs, tigers and humans, for example, often show their teeth when they are angry. This is probably because they are born with those behavior patterns.

Fear is another emotion that is shown in much the same way all over the world. In Chinese and in English literature, a phrase like “he went pale and begin to tremble” suggests that the man is either very afraid or he has just got a very big shock. However, “he opened his eyes wide” is used to suggest anger in Chinese whereas in English it means surprise. In Chinese surprise can be described in a phrase like “they stretched out their tongues”! Sticking out your tongue in English is an insulting gesture or expresses strong dislike. Even in the same culture, people differ in ability to understand and express feelings. Experiments in America have shown that women are usually better than men at recognizing fear, anger, love and happiness on people’s faces. Other studies show that older people usually find it easier to recognize or understand body language than younger people do.

[不同的时间英语作文

上周六，爸爸、妈妈带我去参观了文博会，文博会分了四个不同主题的展馆。

第一个展馆主要展示各个区县的特色产品，我走着走着就发现了一对五颜六色的大蜡烛，这对蜡烛上分别刻着一条金光闪闪的龙和一只火红的凤凰，它们的名字叫秀山龙凤烛。

第二个展馆主要展示来自全国的美食，其中卖羊肉串的人吸引了大家，他戴着猪八戒的面具，脖子上挂着佛珠，穿着写了福字的大红色肚兜，一边跳舞一边烤羊肉串，围观的人感觉很有趣，都拿出手机给他拍照。中午我在这里吃的午餐，爸爸吃的长沙臭豆腐，妈妈吃的台湾小吃，我吃了一个狼牙棒和蚵仔煎。然后我们看了戏剧《山王破狱》。

第三个展馆主要展示户外用品和车。

第四个展馆主要展示科学技术和水果，还有好吃的牛排。

参观结束后，我觉得文博会的其中两个展馆对于吃货来说，很有兴趣。在回家的路上，我不知不觉地睡着了！

我的课余生活丰富多彩，我有时画画，有时跳舞，有时看课外书„„不过，我最喜欢的还是骑自行车。

以前我不会骑自行车的时候，看到其他同学都会骑，心里很羡慕他们。于是我央求爸爸给我买一辆自行车，生日那天爸爸终于给我买了一辆自行车，当时我高兴得一蹦三尺高!

我着急要骑上自行车，爸爸笑着说：“宝贝，你还没学会呢，会摔跤的，让我来帮你扶着自行车吧!”开始我把握不住方向，骑得东倒西歪的，后来我越骑越好，我心里想：骑自行车真简单，真是“小儿科”!我急着说：“爸爸爸爸，快松开手!”爸爸说：“这可是你说的。”我自信地说：“是，快点!”爸爸松开了手，我迫不及待地把脚放到踏板上，突然，爸爸大叫了一声：“小心点!”我刚骑了两下子，就差点摔了一跤，我咬着牙坚持住，继续练，练了四天我终于学会了骑自行车。

我现在骑自行车速度超级快，想去哪就去哪，我还可以从很高的坡上往下冲!原来只要坚持、努力就一定会成功。

Take your time

For thousands of years, animals have trodden a slow path, their spirits together with the body. But our human beings transportation is too fast. The body moves but the soul is left behind. We try to free ourselves in convenience, but we only imprison the soul. Since we invented how to count hours, we do everything to short the time, short the deadline. But the time saved cant be shorten. Nowadays, we spend lots of time staying in front of a TV just changing the channels, while we have no time to talk with a good friend or play with our family.

as a senior three student,time seems much limited.as a result,more and more students try to study from early morning till late afternoon,even during the ten-minute break.in my opinion,to take a ten-minute break between classes is definitely necessary.otherwise we will feel tired both physically and mentally.

during the ten-minute break,we do something to get rid of tiredness.what we need is to have a real rest,instead of getting more tired.so doing nothing tiring in that period is really good for us.

my ten-minute break is always pleasing.sometimes i do some simple exercises.sometimes i have a free chat with my classmates or just take a walk outside.when the next class begins,i feel fresh again

我是一个比较内向文静的女孩子，学校的运动场上很少见到我的身影。课余时间，我爱看小说。放学回家，除了做家务，特别钟情于装扮我的“小山”。

“小山”不是一座真山，只是一座仅有手掌那么大的假山，敦实地卧在那碧绿的石盆里。一泓碧水环绕着，像蝌蚪般大小的小鱼儿穿梭自如的游来游去，这里的山水美景都出于我平时精心照料。

“小山”起初并不太美，刚买来时灰不溜湫的。我把它洗刷干净，直到露出它突兀嶙峋的外形才置于在宝石盆中，注上清澈的水，放进几条小鱼，再插上几株小荷花。于是，鱼戏莲叶间的美景便活现地呈现在我眼前，我高兴极了，因为这是我亲手创造出来的啊。

我和小山结了深厚的情谊，一有空就来看它，我有时给它换水，有时给它刷身，有时给它装点几丛小草……忙得不亦乐乎。

有一次，我突发奇想，把小山变成花果山。我马上拿来剪刀、彩笔、银色纸片，还有泥塑，运用美术课的知识，我用泥塑捏了几只抓耳挠腮的猴子，当然还剪了那威风凛凛的齐天大圣。接着剪了一张小纸片，用彩色笔写上了“花果山”三个字，贴在洞上方，做了支小旗子，插在山顶缝隙间，然后，把齐天大圣放在旗子的旁边，居高临下，把小猴子放在山脚下。一切完工，生气勃勃的齐天大圣称霸花果册的情景便出现在眼前。

望着自己的杰作，我心满意足地笑了，这时，爸爸走过来，拍着我的肩膀说：“不错，手真巧！这是一座小假山，你喜欢它吗？为什么？因为它美吗？你可想到，我们祖国开发的油田，把祖国建设得像个美丽的大花园！”爸爸说：“好！有志气！哈哈……”爸爸鼓励地又拍拍我的脑袋。

我爱小山，我爱装扮的小山，我更爱我的祖国。爱它的山山水水都在于每个人的心中。在每个人的心中爱的景色就是这些山山水水！

Time is the most valuable for people, because you can never own it again after it goes. When I was little child, my parents always told me that I should treasure my time. However, I seldom trusted in them because I thought that I just a little kid and I have plenty of time. But after I went to middle school, I changed my view. I spend all the day in school, having classes, and after class, I have to spend some time in study. That is to say, I do not have much time to play. Therefore, I realize that time is valuable and I should make a good plan for my life, so that I can live a rich life.

在我小的时候，我最最喜欢的课外活动是——检白色垃圾。今年暑假，我终于又盼到了我最最喜欢的活动了。

这次，我和妈妈、爸爸一同收集白色垃圾。来到火车站，只见我们的‚敌人‛一堆一堆地站好排，好像马上就要向我们进攻。我和爸爸、妈妈冲过去又是抓又是钩，结果‚敌人‛都没抓到，而我们三个的钩子竟然钩在一起了!这时，我才明白，心急可不行，要稳中求快。于是，我对妈妈、爸爸说：‚快过来，咱们要来它个两面夹击，这样才能把它们全部消灭……‛我看呢，要是有看到我们谈得这么认真，准会以为我们是刘备、关羽、张飞这三员大将在机密地言论呢!我和爸爸、妈妈商量好计划，便回到各自的岗位去了。

这回，可有好戏看了。只见，妈妈拿着大大的纸壳，向天空扇了一下便把许多‚敌人‛扇飞到天上。我突然举起大钩子，向我们的‚敌人‛一抓，就一下子捉到了二三个，我高兴地跳了起来，并且马上把它们送到老爸拿的破旧的装大米的袋子里，就这样，连连续续、返返复复，终于把所有的‚敌人‛都抓到了，这些‚敌人‛卖了三四十元呢!

我喜欢这个活动。但我希望下次能能捡到的‚敌人‛越来越少，让我们天空更蓝，我们的空气更加清新!

简评：作者把‚捡白色拉圾‛作为自己的课余生活来写，重点写了我和爸爸、妈妈如何战胜‚白色垃圾‛，写出了我的‚机智‛，文章的结尾道出了作者的心声，号召人们保护环境，使我们很受启发。

我的课余生活是丰富多彩的。

每当下课时，我总是会第一个冲出教室和同学们在操场上玩打口袋、跳高等游戏。一到放学，我会在操场上踢足球，总是满头大汗才想起该回家了。

我最喜欢放假了，放寒假时，我经常找几个小朋友堆雪人、打雪仗。我们三个一群、两个一伙就拉开阵势玩了起来。我们找来铲子，堆了一个大大的雪人，用扫帚做它的手臂，用石子做它的眼睛，一会雪人就堆好了。我们围着雪人，唱啊，跳啊，别提多高兴了。

到了暑假，我们有时会结伴出去旅游，看宏伟的长城，在大海中游泳，在山上是野餐，品尝各地美食。闲暇时，我们会聚在一起下棋、游游泳和捉蚂蚱等。

别说我只会玩，我也会和老师同学们讨论学习方法，帮助我提高学习成绩。课余时间，老师让我帮助学习不好的同学提高成绩，我就会认真地给它补课，努力地让他提高学习成绩。

我们经常去散步，看到需要帮助的人我们一定要尽力帮助他们。如果有‚白色垃圾‛我都要把它们清除掉，保护我们的生存环境，让人类能够更好地生活在地球上。

这就是我的课余生活，即丰富多彩而又有意义。

说到课余生活，有许多，有打篮球、踢足球、乒乓球和游泳。可是我最喜欢的当然是无与伦比的滑旱冰。

每到星期六的晚上，我就会和我最要好的朋友赵琦去美丽的街心广场滑旱冰。每次我们都比赛。赢的不是我，而是我的好朋友赵琦，以前我不会滑旱冰，有一天爸爸给我买了一双旱冰鞋。晚上爸爸就教我滑旱冰。过了两个月我终于学会了。

又到了我们比赛的时候。我仔细观察着赵琦的眼神，似乎是志在必得有些骄傲。我一喊开始，激烈的比赛开始了，已经搓出了火花，我们滑了有五分钟，我和赵琦不分上下，快到终点的时候，我冲刺了，我飞快冲向终点，‚啊!‛我终于赢了!

这时有一位大学生哥哥来了，说：‚小朋友，咱们比一比。我们开始了比赛，这位大哥哥非常厉害，足足把我拉了两圈，我输了。

我的课余生活是不是挺有意思的，你想不想和我一起一比高低呢!那么周六街心广场见! 简评：作者把周末去街心广场‚滑旱冰‛作为自己的课余生活来写，重点写了我是‚如何取胜，向自己挑战‛，写出了我的‚机智、勇敢‛，文章的结尾向朋友们发出了邀请，使我们很受启发。

1.Acknowledge that you are a person who is having a hard time being punctual. As with any problem, you cannot fix it if youre in denial that its a problem at all. But if your chronic tardiness is beginning to strain your job and/or your relationships, the first thing you need to do is acknowledge this as a weakness so you can begin to work toward correcting it.Although if it is a rational problem,like traffic or small children,there is no need to feel bad-just keep working on it!

2. Wake up when youre supposed to wake up. Dont hit the snooze button, linger in bed, and watch TV at the very start of your day.Maybe even try setting your clock 10 minutes earlier than you need to. If you have difficulty with this, move your alarm clock to somewhere out of reach from your bed; that way, you have to get up to turn it off. Acquire the habit of sitting up, stretching, and getting out of bed as soon as the alarm goes off. If you cant get out of bed on time, you may be going to bed too late. Try sleeping earlier to allow yourself at least 7 hours sleep. By getting up late you are setting a pattern of lateness for the rest of the day. For more tips on how to do this, see the Related wikiHows section below.

3. Commit yourself to being 15 minutes early for everything. If you have to be to work at 8:00, dont even tell yourself this. Just tell yourself (and everyone else who listens- but dont annoy them or make them think that they are late or early!) "I have to be at work at 7:45." If you do this, you will be on time even with little unforeseen interruptions. You will be on time even with a traffic jam. And on those rare times that you actually show up 15 minutes early; you will get kudos for being an enthusiastic employee.You can also chat with others who are early,and that will make you happy before work!

4. Bring something you can read in short segments almost everywhere you go. This makes it easy to be early, since in the 10-15 minutes you have before an appointment/event, you can get a few pages of reading done. This makes it feel like youre getting something done (and you are) while you are waiting, if you do have to wait. You can get a ton of reading done this way, too.

5. Watch yourself for a few days to see where you often waste the most time. These "time sinkholes" (such as getting distracted while checking emails) are often unnoticed by us and can throw off your daily planning. Try to change your habits around these activities. For example, standing up while quickly checking your emails makes it hard to lose an hour randomly surfing the web.

6. Keep organized. Disorganization is directly related to lateness. How often have you been late because you were looking for your car keys or couldnt find an important document? Keep the things that you use everyday in some resemblance of organization and your routines will go smoother.

7. Plan ahead.

o Schedule something unimportant right before something very important. If you have an essential interview at 4:00, plan to meet a friend for coffee at the coffee shop next to your interview at 3:30. Then, even if you are late to meet your friend, you will be poised to pounce on your meeting.But remember to tell your friend that you may miss your coffee(they might feel that you are ditching them.)

o Pick out your clothes the night before (dont forget your underclothes and shoes!). If you need to bring something with you, set it with your car keys or purse.

o If you are going to some unfamiliar place, look over a map, or even drive there once if at all possible. Have your transportation planned; if you drive, keep your car in good order and refill gas in the tank. If you ride a bus, know the route, have your fare, and keep cab money on hand in case of emergency. If you are depending on another person for a ride—have a plan B!

8. Go to sleep on time. This makes it a lot easier to get up on time and helps you stay on task during the day. Unless you know otherwise, assume you need eight hours of sleep every night. By far the majority of people need at least this much sleep. College students and younger need more. Most people underestimate their sleep needs.

When you are late for appointments, meetings or work, you show a lack of respect for other people’s time as well as your own. Punctuality is a problem for many people。

我的课余生活就像一幅多姿多彩的画卷。有画画啦、写毛笔字啦、看电视啦 等等。但是我喜欢的还是要数看书了。

我小时候爸爸妈妈很忙，没时间和陪我，就把我带到了姑姑家。姑姑家可真像一个小图书馆，书可多了，我经常和两位表哥读书、看电视，开心极了。

渐渐地，我长大了，已经认识了许多字，也看过了许多名著，如：高尔基的作品：《童年》、《在人间》、《我的大学》 等等。有时，我会为高尔基的痛苦童年而哇哇大哭，我也会为高尔基小时闹出的笑话而疯狂大笑。

书，把我的许多烦恼和疲劳抛到九霄云外，书给我带来了无限乐趣。
