他,一个曾令我讨厌的人,他学小沈阳,结果学的改不掉他那翘舌音,班上的搞笑派之一,自称“蒙娜丽卓”,本名陈卓。但现在,他的一个举动改变了我对他的看法

那是一个慵懒的中午,我到车站等车,上车时,我看到陈卓也在车上,坐的地方还是我平时坐的最后一排,是像往常一样坐最后一排去吹凉风?还是就坐前面呼吸不新鲜的空气?终于,我还是决定,无视他,我坐最后一排。

我坐下,紧靠着边坐,避开他,望着窗外发呆。车行驶了一段,一站,上来了一个老爷爷,我起初并没有看到他,我只是听到这样一串对话:“老爷爷,您来坐!”“没事你坐吧!”“我站着,又不累,来,您坐!”“谢谢了!”我下意识的回过头,就看见陈卓扶那个老爷爷坐下。

我的心像被什么敲中了似的。陈卓,这个平时看上去大大咧咧、嘻嘻哈哈的,几乎看不出他有什么文化气质,然而,他在这个时侯却可以做出这样令我敬佩、意外的事。

从那时候起,我彻底的改变了对他的看法,他,是一个助人为乐的人。

篇8:我改变了心中梦想的色彩小学作文

全文共 689 字

+ 加入清单

或许雄鹰没有办法选择搏击的天空,但它们试图改变飞翔的高度;或许骏马没有能力选择奔腾的草原,但它们试图改变奔跑的速度;或许我们没有权利选择生长的环境,但我们可以试图改变生命的质量。

犹记得小时候,总是梦想人生可以一帆风顺,那样一辈子无灾无难,永远心想事成,多好!幼时的我在心中默默地想着,无比虔诚地恳求上天,可是事与愿违,似乎不如意总是发生在我身上:考试成绩不好,与朋友闹矛盾,和家人吵架……我觉得自己的人生犹如一处不见底的深渊,在令人窒息的黑暗中沉沦。我将自己关在密不透风的小屋中,想着一旁鸟语花香的世界,快乐是别人的,幸福也是别人的,被重重不如意包裹的我,好似总与明媚鲜艳的世界格格不入。

渐渐地,我长大了,也开始明白先前心中的那个梦想有多么不切实际了。人生总是有欢乐痛苦为伴,生命不可能永远快乐,也不会永远痛苦,或许我无法选择自己的境遇,但我可以改变自己的心态。

“弃我去者,昨日之日不可留。”天空依旧蔚蓝,花儿依旧芳馨,鸟儿依旧歌鸣,今日的我并非与昨日有什么不同,只是一个小小的困难、小小的挫折,又何必因此自怨自艾萎靡不振?生活中从来都不缺少美好,只是太多沉重的压迫,让我们失去了欣赏美的能力。

困难对于智者,是成功路上的垫脚石,而对于失败者,是无法跨越的鸿沟。于是,我学着敞开心扉,学着拥抱世界,学着感受一点一滴的温馨与快乐。

现在,我不再幻想自己能够无忧无虑地度过一生,我只要自己可以认真把握生命的每一分钟,面对失败,不颓不废不气馁,面对成功,不傲不骄不迷失。

望窗外,景色宜人,心中梦想被蘸上稳重坚定的色彩,愿从此,我能载着梦想的帆船,一路远扬!

Low carbon life today is no longer a fresh word, the people all know what call low carbon life.

Today I will say the low-carbon life in our house. One day, after I had finished my homework was sitting on the sofa watching TV, movie about environmental protection commonweal advertisement attracted me. The frame there are pieces of white clouds in the blue sky, the endless prairie, green grass in the wind gently shake its head, the colorful flowers and small butterflies dance ballet on the ground. But, the scene became is full of weeds, desolate desert.

I sat on the sofa, looking out the window the yellow sky thought:

If we dont protect the environment, cant tell which day our hometown will become like that. Thought of here Ill stand up to mom and dad said: "low carbon life is start from our home!"

After that day, our family really played a low-carbon life.

As long as it doesnt black home absolutely does not turn on the light. Go out not to ride electric vehicles is the bus. And I put up a piece of white paper in the bathroom write "please save water" several characters, ah! Indeed effective, mom and dad would never waste water, both of the water to wash the dishes, wash clothes of water save flush the toilet and do it saves water, also save a lot of water.

My dad used to throw rubbish are packed in a bag together willy-nilly throw it away. But now is different, he always put the garbage classification, not thrown away, can be recycled are collected to sell to recyclers, the sale of the waste of money saved up can also buy vegetables.

So two months of low-carbon life, not only make people form good habits, our family also save a lot of cost of living. Mother happily say: "low carbon life is environmental protection, and save money, also can let us healthy life, we must put the low carbon life in the end!"

碳低生活在今天已经不是什么新鲜词了,人们都知道什么叫低碳生活。

今天我就来说说我们家的低碳生活。有一天,我写完作业就坐在沙发里看电视,一部关于环保的公益广告吸引住了我。画面中蔚蓝的天空中飘着一朵朵白云,一望无际的草原上,嫩绿的小草随风轻轻摇动着它的小脑袋,那些五颜六色的小花在地上和小蝴蝶跳起了芭蕾。可是画面一转,就变成了到处都是荒草,荒无人烟的大沙漠。

我坐在沙发上,看着窗外昏黄的天空心想:

我们要是再不保护环境,说不准哪一天我们的家乡也会变成那样。想到这儿我马上站起来对爸爸妈妈说:“低碳生活要从我们家做起!”

从那天以后,我们家真的过起了低碳生活。

只要天不黑家里绝对不开灯。出门不是骑电动车就是坐公交。而且我在卫生间里贴了一张白纸写上“请节约用水”几个大字,哎!果然有效,爸爸妈妈再也不浪费水了,他们俩把洗菜水,洗衣服的水都存下来冲马桶,这样做既节约水,还省下了不少水费。

我爸以前扔垃圾都是不管三七二十一装在一个袋子里一同扔掉。可是现在却不同了,他每次都把垃圾分类,不可回收的都扔掉,可回收再利用的都收集起来卖给收废品的,这样卖废品的钱攒起来还可以买菜。

就这样两个月的低碳生活,不仅让我们家人人养成了好习惯,还节省了不少生活开销。妈妈高兴的说:“低碳生活既环保,又省钱,还能让我们健康的生活,我们家一定要把低碳生活进行到底!”

篇20:中秋节小学生英语作文

全文共 2303 字

Moonquakes are to Mid-Autumn Festival what mince pies are to Christmas. The seasonal round cakes traditionally have a sweet filling of lotus seed paste or red bean paste and often have one or more salted duck eggs in the center to represent the moon. And the moon is what this celebration is all about. Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month,it is the time when the moon is said to be at its brightest and fullest.

There are two legends which claim to explain the tradition of eating moonquakes. One Tang Dynasty myth holds that the Earth once had 10 suns circling it. One day all 10 suns appeared at once,scorching the planet with their heat.

It was thanks to a skillful archer named Hour Yi that the Earth was saved. He shot down all but one of the suns. As his reward,the Heavenly Queen Mother gave Hour Yi the Elixir of Immortality,but she warned him that he must use it wisely.

Hour Yi ignored her advice and,corrupted by fame and fortune,became a tyrannical leader. Chang-Err,his beautiful wife, could no longer stand by and watch him abuse his power so she stole his Elixir and fled to the moon to escape his angry wrath. And thus began the legend of the beautiful woman in the moon,the Moon Fairy.

The second legend has it that during the Yuan Dynasty,an underground group led by Zhu Yuan Zing was determined to rid the country of Mongolian dominance. The moon cake was created to carry a secret message.

When the cake was opened and the message read,an uprising was unleashed which successfully routed the Mongolians. It happened at the time of the full moon,which,some say,explains why moonquakes are eaten at this time.

Moonquakes are usually stamped with Chinese characters indicating the name of the ry and the type of filling used. Some ries will even stamp them with your family name so that you can give personalized ones to friends and family.

They are usually presented in boxes of four which indicate the four phases of the moon. Traditional moonquakes are made with melted lard,but today vegetable oil is more often used in the interests of health.

Moonquakes are not for the diet-conscious as they are loaded with calories. The best way to wash down one of these sticky cakes is with a cup of Chinese tea,especially Jasmine or Chrysanthemum tea,which aids the digestion.
