一、阅读能力测试(100分)

请阅读下面的材料，按要求进行阅读能力测试。

不到5岁便夭折的儿童每年有900万。在撒哈拉沙漠以南的非洲地区，产妇死亡概率为33%，这一比率在发达国家仅为0.018%。全球至少有25个国家，大多数为撒哈拉以南的非洲国家，其人口的平均寿命不超过55岁。仅在印度一国，就有超过5000万的学龄儿童连简单的课文也看不懂。

看了上面这段文字，或许你只想把书扔到一边，不去想世界贫穷这件大事。因为这个问题看上去太宽泛、太棘手。然而，我们写这本书的目的就在于，劝你不要那样做。

宾夕法尼亚大学近期的一项实验表明，这一问题的重要性会令我们无比震惊。研究人员发给每个学生5美元，让他们填写一份简短的调查表，然后再给他们看一份传单，请他们为“拯救儿童”(全球慈善机构之一)捐款。传单有两种不同的类型，有些学生所看到的传单是这样的：

马拉维的食品短缺影响着超过300万儿童;在赞比亚，自2000年以来的严重干旱已导致粮食产量下降42%。因此，300万赞比亚人将面临饥饿;400万安哥拉人(占安哥拉人口总数的三分之一)已被迫离开自己的家乡;超过1 100万埃塞俄比亚人急需食品援助。

另外一些学生所看到的传单上画着一个小女孩，还有这样一些文字：

罗西娅是一个来自非洲马里的7岁女孩，她过着极度贫穷的生活，甚至面临着挨饿的危险。然而，您的经济援助将会改善她的生活。有了您以及其他好心人的支持，“拯救儿童”将与罗西娅的家人以及社区里的其他人一起帮助她，让她能吃饱饭，接受教育，具备基本的医疗及卫生常识。

看了第一份传单的学生平均每人捐了1.16美元。和第一份传单不同，第二份传单展现了一个而不是数百万人的困境，看了这份传单的学生平均每人捐了2.83美元。这样看来，学生们愿意为了罗西娅而承担一点儿责任，但在面对广泛的全球性问题时，他们就不免有些泄气了。

接下来，研究人员又随机选定了一些学生，先告诉他们这样一个现象，即人们不愿关注那种泛泛的信息，他们更有可能会捐钱给某一特定受害者，然后再给这些学生看那两份传单。结果显示，看了第一份传单的学生平均每人捐款1.26美元，与事先不知道该现象的学生所捐的钱差不多。然而，看了第二份传单的学生在得知这种现象之后，平均每人仅捐了1.36美元，远远低于不知道该现象的学生所捐的钱。鼓励学生们再想想反而使他们对罗西娅不那么慷慨了，但马里人民也没有因此得到更多的援助。

学生们的反应是一个典型案例，说明了大多数人在面对贫穷等问题时的感觉。我们的本能反应是慷慨，特别是在面对一个身陷困境的7岁小女孩时。然而，正如宾夕法尼亚大学的学生们一样，我们在重新考虑之后常常失去信心：我们捐的那点儿钱不过是沧海一粟，而且这些善款的安全性也得不到保障。这本书会让您再好好想想，如何摆脱那种“贫穷的问题难以解决”的感觉，从一系列具体问题出发，重新审视这一挑战。这些问题只要能得到恰当的定位并为人们真正理解，就能够逐一得到解决。

遗憾的是，关于贫穷的辩论往往不是这样展开的。很多侃侃而谈的专家并没有讨论怎样抗击痢疾和登革热最有效，而是专注于那些“大问题”：贫穷的最终原因是什么?我们应该在多大程度上信任自由市场?穷人能够受益于民主制吗?外来援助可以发挥什么样的作用?等等。

杰弗里·萨克斯是联合国顾问、纽约哥伦比亚大学地球研究所主任，同时也是一位贫穷问题专家。他对上述问题的回答是：贫穷国家之所以贫穷，原因在于这些国家往往都气候炎热、土地贫瘠、疟疾肆虐、四周被陆地所包围。因此，如果没有大量的原始投资助其解决这些地方性问题，这些国家很难提高自己的生产力。然而，这些国家却因为贫穷，无法支付投资回报——这就是经济学家们所谓的“贫穷陷阱”。除非这些问题的解决能够落到实处，否则无论是自由市场，还是民主制，都帮不上什么大忙。外来援助之所以重要的原因就在于，它能启动一种良性循环，即辅助穷国在关键领域投资，从而提高其生产力;由此而产生的更高收入会带来更多投资，收益将呈螺旋状上升。萨克斯在其2005年《贫穷的终结》(The End of Poverty)一书中称，如果富国在2005~2025年间每年拿出1 950亿美元的资金来援助穷国，那么贫穷问题到2025年末便可完全得到解决。

然而，还有一些侃侃而谈的人认为，萨克斯的回答是错误的。曼哈顿的威廉·埃斯特利挑战了纽约大学的萨克斯，随着其著作《在增长的迷雾中求索》(The Elusive Quest for Growth)及《白人的负担》(The White Mans Burden)的面世，他已经成为反援助人士中最具影响力的公众人物之一。丹比萨·莫约是一位曾在高盛投资公司及世界银行任职的经济学家，她于近期出版了《援助的死亡》(Dead Aid)一书，并在书中对埃斯特利的观点表示赞同。他们都认为，援助的弊大于利：援助使人们停止寻找自己解决问题的方法，腐蚀地方机构并削弱其作用，导致一些援助机构形同虚设。对于贫穷国家来说，最好遵循一个简单的原则：只要有自由市场和恰当的奖励机制，人们就能自己找到解决问题的方法，避免接受外国人或自己政府的施舍。从这个意义上讲，在看待世界运转的方式上，对援助持悲观态度的人实际上表现得颇为乐观。埃斯特利认为，“贫穷陷阱”并不存在。

我们到底应该相信谁?是相信那些认为援助能解决问题的人，还是相信那些认为援助只能使问题恶化的人?这一问题无法从理论上得到解决，我们需要的是证据。然而，遗憾的是，那种常常用来解答大问题的数据并不能得到人们的信任。引人注目的奇闻轶事比比皆是，有些事件甚至可以用来支持任何立场。例如，卢旺达在遭受种族灭绝之后的几年里得到了大笔捐款，整个国家逐渐走向繁荣。由于国民经济得到了发展，卢旺达总统保罗·卡加梅开始制定政策，尽量不再接受援助。那么，我们应将这个例子看作是援助好处的证明(萨克斯的观点)，还是自力更生的典型代表(莫约的观点)，还是二者兼备?

由于诸如卢旺达这样的个例没有最终定论，大多数研究哲学问题的人更喜欢在多个国家之间作比较。例如，针对世界上几百个国家的数据表明，接受更多援助的国家并不比其他国家发展得快。这常常被认为是援助无用的依据，但实际上，这也可能意味着相反的观点。或许，援助使某些国家避免了一场灾难，没有援助的话情况会更糟。对此，我们并不了解，只是在泛泛地猜测而已。

然而，假如没有支持或反对援助的依据，我们又该怎样做呢?——放弃穷人?这种失败主义的态度不是我们所应持有的。实际上，答案是可以找到的。这本书整体上就采用了一种答案延伸的形式——不过不是萨克斯和埃斯特利喜欢的那种泛泛的答案，它要告诉你的不是援助的好与坏，而是援助在一些特定的事例中是否带来了好处。我们虽然不能断定民主制的效力，却可以就是否应改变其组织方式谈谈感想，使其更有效地运行于印尼的农村等地。

无论如何，对于某些大问题(如外国援助是否有效)的回答是否像我们有时听到的那样重要，我们尚不明确。无论是伦敦、巴黎或华盛顿特区那些热心于帮助穷人的人，还是不那么热心于此的人，他们都认为援助的作用十分突出。实际上，援助只占每年给穷人所划拨的款项的一小部分，大多数针对全球穷人的计划都由各国自身的财政部门制定。例如，印度基本上不接受援助。2004~2005年间，印度为穷人的基础教育计划投入5 000亿卢比(310亿美元)。即使是在非洲这样急需援助的地方，这一数字也只占政府2003年度全部预算的5.7%(如果我们排除尼日利亚和南非这两个几乎不接受援助的大国，那么这一比例为12%)。

更重要的是，援助的是是非非引发了无数没完没了的争论，这模糊了真正的重点——钱的去处。这就意味着政府要选择正确的资助项目——该项目对穷人有好处吗?是该给老人发养老金，还是为病人建诊所?然后，弄清楚最好的操作方式是怎样的。比如，诊所的运作及人员配备可以采取很多不同的方式。

为援助问题而争论的人基本上都同意一个前提，即我们应在力所能及时向穷人伸出援助之手。这也在情理之中。哲学家彼得·辛格曾写过关于拯救陌生人的道德准则，他评论说，大多数人都愿意牺牲一件价值1 000美元的衣服，换取一个落水儿童的性命。辛格还认为，这名落水儿童就是那些每年活不到5岁的900万儿童之一。经济学家、哲学家、诺贝尔奖得主阿玛蒂亚·森的观点也得到了很多人的赞同。他认为，贫穷会导致令人难以容忍的人才浪费。用他的话来讲，贫穷并不仅仅意味着缺钱，它会使人丧失挖掘自身潜力的能力。一个来自非洲的贫穷小女孩即使很聪明，可能最多也只能上几年学。她很可能由于营养不足而无法成长为世界顶级运动员，而且即使她有什么做生意的好想法，也没有启动资金。

的确，对于发达国家的人来说，这种对生命的荒废可能没有什么直接影响，但对于这个非洲小女孩来说却影响很大：她可能沦落为携带艾滋病毒的妓女，将病毒传染给一个来到非洲旅游的美国人，而这个美国人又会将病毒带回自己的国家。或者，她可能会患上一种耐抗生素的肺结核，这种病毒最终可能会传播到欧洲。如果她当初接受了足够的教育，她可能已经研制出了治疗老年痴呆症的良药，或者就像中国小姑娘戴满菊一样，她上学的机会来源于银行职员的一个疏忽，这可能使她最终成为雇用上千人的商业巨头。尼古拉斯·克里斯托弗和舍丽·吴顿在其著作《半边天》(Half the Sky)中讲述了这个小姑娘的故事。即使她没有这样的际遇，我们又有何理由不给她一次机会呢?

我们知道帮助穷人的有效方式吗?当我们回到这个问题时，分歧便会显现。

辛格关于帮助别人的观点中隐含了一个前提，即你知道如何去做。在你不会游泳的前提下，甘愿牺牲一件衣服的道德准则便显得苍白无力。正因如此，在《你能拯救的生命》(The Life You Can Save)一书中，辛格不辞辛苦地为读者列举了很多实例，告诉他们可以在哪些地方伸出援手。在辛格的网站上，这部分内容是定期更新的，尼古拉斯·克里斯托弗和舍丽·吴顿也是这样做的。道理很简单，只谈世界上存在什么问题，而不去谈可行的解决方案，这样只能导致社会瘫痪，而非进步。

因此，真正有用的方式是从实际问题的角度去思考，这样就可以有针对性地找出解决具体问题的方法，而不是空谈外来援助。例如，世界卫生组织称，疟疾在2008年造成约100万人丧生，其中大多数是来自非洲的儿童。对此，我们认为，让人们睡在经过杀虫剂处理的蚊帐中，这样就可以挽救很多条性命。研究表明，在疟疾传播严重的地区，让人们睡在经过杀虫剂处理的蚊帐中，可以将疟疾的感染病例减少一半。那么，怎样做才能保证儿童都睡在这样的蚊帐中呢?

只要拿出约10美元，一个家庭就能得到一个经过杀虫剂处理的蚊帐，还会有人教他们怎样使用这种蚊帐。政府或非政府组织是否应向家长们免费提供这种蚊帐?或者按优惠价卖给他们?还是让他们自己去市场上按全价购买?这些问题是可以回答的，但答案却不甚明了。很多“专家”在这些问题上的立场十分强硬，却拿不出任何有力的证据。

疟疾是一种传染病，如果玛丽睡在蚊帐中，约翰就不太可能被传染——如果至少有一半人口睡在蚊帐中，另一半人口即使没睡在蚊帐中，他们被传染的概率也会大大降低。问题是，睡在蚊帐中的孩子的人数还不到总人口数的四分之一。对于马里及肯尼亚的很多家庭来说，10美元的花费有些高。考虑到使用者及社区中其他人的利益，以优惠价销售蚊帐或免费赠送蚊帐似乎是个好办法。的确，免费发放蚊帐正是杰弗里·萨克斯所提倡的。埃斯特利和莫约则对此持反对态度。他们认为，如果人们不花钱就得到了蚊帐，那么他们就不会对其加以珍惜，因而也就不会去用。即使他们用了，也可能会因此对施舍习以为常，在以后需要自己花钱购买蚊帐时便会退缩，或是在需要其他物品时也不愿自己花钱，而是等着别人免费赠送。这种情况会摧毁运转良好的市场。据莫约讲，一位蚊帐供应商就曾因一项免费发放蚊帐计划而破产。在该项计划停止之后，再也没有人愿意以任何价格提供蚊帐了。

要想解释这一争论，我们需要回答三个问题。第一，如果人们必须以全价(或者至少是全价的一大半)购买蚊帐，他们是否会放弃购买?第二，如果蚊帐是免费赠送的，或是以优惠价卖给人们的，他们是否会使用这些蚊帐，还是将其浪费掉?第三，如果人们以优惠价购买了蚊帐，那么一旦以后价格不再优惠，他们是否还愿意去购买呢?

要想回答这些问题，我们就要观察并比较几组人在面对不同程度优惠价时的行为。这里，我们着重于“比较”，自己花钱购买蚊帐的人与免费得到蚊帐的人相比，他们的表现常常是不一样的。

那些自己花钱购买蚊帐的人可能都比较富有，受过良好的教育，而且知道自己为什么需要这种蚊帐;而那些免费得到蚊帐的人可能是因为贫穷，才会被某家非政府组织选中。不过，情况也可能恰恰相反：免费得到蚊帐的人社会关系优越，而穷人由于封闭只好以全价购买。无论是哪种情况，我们都无法从他们使用蚊帐的方式上得出任何结论。

因此，这些问题最简洁的回答方式就是模仿医学中为评估新药的效力而采用的随机对照实验(RCTs)。洛杉矶加利福尼亚大学的帕斯卡利娜·迪帕在肯尼亚开展了这样一项实验，随后，其他研究人员分别在乌干达和马达加斯加进行了类似的实验。在迪帕的实验中，随机选定的几个人在购买蚊帐时享受了不同程度的价格优惠。通过对几个小组在接受不同价格时的行为进行比较，迪帕便能回答我们前面列出的三个问题，至少在这项实验的背景下是这样的。

在本书的第三章，我们将详细描述迪帕的研究发现。尽管有争议的问题仍然存在(例如，这些实验并没有告诉我们，将进口的蚊帐以优惠价出售是否会损害当地厂家的利益)，但这些实验结果还是使这场争论取得了实质性的进展，并极大地影响了这方面的政策导向及言辞。

从泛泛而论转向具体剖析，这样做还有一个好处：一旦我们了解穷人是否愿意花钱购买蚊帐，以及他们是否会使用免费得到的蚊帐，那么我们所了解的就不仅是发放蚊帐的最好方式了;我们还会了解，穷人是怎样做出选择的。例如，蚊帐得到广泛应用的最大阻碍可能是人们不了解这种蚊帐的好处，可能是穷人买不起蚊帐，也可能是他们的头脑完全被当前的问题所占据，根本没空去担心以后的事。通过回答这些问题，我们就能了解穷人的特殊性表现在哪些方面：他们除了手里没有多少钱之外，在生活上同其他人都是一样的吗?或是他们极度贫困的生活与其他人的生活在本质上有哪些不同?如果他们的生活有什么特殊之处，他们是否会因此而掉入“贫穷陷阱”?

二、创新作文写作(100分)

一个人究竟是“富二代”还是“贫二代”，这是他的出身决定的，无法改变。但由于有高考这样的选拔制度的存在，不少“贫二代”最终成功改变了自己的命运。可以说，高考在出身之外，为寒门学子打开了一扇改变命运之门。而现在，由于全国中小学生创新作文大赛与全国重点高校的合作越来越紧密，不少有文学特长的高中生通过大赛成功敲开了北京大学、复旦大学、南京大学、浙江大学等名校之门。可以说，大赛在高考之外为广大的高中生开辟了一条通往名校的“绿色通道”。所以，对于一个高中生而言，高考固然重要，但它并非生活的全部，也许在高考之外，还有另一条路，另一种生活，另一个故事……请以“高考之外”为题写一篇文章，立意自定，体裁不限，字数限1500~1800之间。

I went back home this weekend. I have stay at home for almost a month since the summer break began, I never thought stay at home was great when I was at home, but when I came back to home is the best place for me in the world.

The strong wind was gone, I feel so sad. The weather become hotter and hotter. I can’t bear the sun anymore. As far as I know the swimming pool in this university hasn’t done yet, that is so awful.

It is the hottest summer in the history of Hangzhou, the temperature stay above 30 degree centigrade every day. The summer becomes hotter and hotter every year, that would be very bad to the earth.

[高中生英语日记精选：I feel so sad

初中三年的生活转眼就到了末尾。不敢回头眺望，怕因没有努力而留下遗憾，怕昔日的记忆冲垮了心中的坚强。手握生活的笔杆，承着对生活负责的态度，真不知应该给这段难以忘记的时光画上什么符号。是逗号，表示不完整?是省略号，表示自己难以对现实评判而选择逃避?还是问号，表示迷惑而无所得?如此这般，生命又有何意义?

我对未来有着美好的憧憬，我不愿生命如此平庸，我不愿浑浑噩噩的度过初中生活。作为一个学生，主要任务就是学习，好学习，学好习。理想是方向，是为之奋斗的目标，而我在初中阶段的目标就是考上庆一中，因为有了目标，所以我不像没头苍蝇一样乱飞乱撞，有了良好的开端，就成功了一半，理想不是一成不变的，他随着生活的变化而变化，一个伟大的理想是由诸多小的理想构建的，在人生的每一阶段有各自的理想，一步步去实现，那离最终的伟大理想就进了一步，这样积小成多才能实现理想，也不至于因理想与现实的沟壑而望之胆怯了。

有了方向，还要有动力。

我的动力，来自于家人的期望，老师的教导，朋友的支持等等。上学时拿着的零花钱，每一张的背后都是父母，家人的付出，回家后每一顿热腾腾的饭菜都是用爱做成的;上课时老师的谆谆教导，下课后老师的批评，都是老师的一片苦心，一日为师终生为父，老师对学生没有感情，又何苦去把时间浪费于此;拼搏路上朋友一个眼神，一句鼓励的话，便足以带来太多太多。这一切，难道不是我们前进时的动力源泉吗?还有那些看似是拦路虎的嘲笑，伤痛等负面情绪，换个角度，不也是前进的理由，一种动力吗?

接受现实，回望初中。只因我的拼搏填补了遗憾，我至少努力过，所以我给这段时光画上圆满的句号。只因我的拼搏得到了回报，所以我给这段时光画上感叹号!

What is healthy diet? To the most people, healthy diet means more green foods, no junk foods.

These foods will cause one get weight and increase the risk of many diseases. We should keep a healthy diet, abandon the junk food to keep ourselves healthy.

什么是健康饮食?对于大多数人来说，健康饮食就意味着多吃绿色食品，不要吃垃圾食品。绿色食品就是那些无污染、高品质和营养的食物，包括有机蔬菜和肉类、水果、鸡蛋等等。健康饮食的膳食应该用更少的盐和油制作。而垃圾食品是指那些低营养、高热量、再加工的高盐重油食品，例如薯条、炸鸡和咸蛋等等。这些食品会导致一个人发胖，并增加疾病的风险。为了保持健康，我们应该保持健康饮食，抛弃垃圾食品。

The definition of happiness always causes the public’s attention. Some

people believe that making a lot of money and earning great reputation are the

standard to define success, while some people think that spending more time with

their families deserves all the things and it is their bliss. In my opinion, the

meaning of happiness varies according to different people, but there is one

thing in common, which is their positive attitude to life. I am so lucky to born

in a happy family, and my parents give me all their love. Though we are

ordinary, I am so satisfy with my life now. I cherish the thing I have.

The generation gap refers to the difference in attitude toward thing or the

lack of understanding between young people and older folks.

In families as well as in society, the young and the older may not agree

with each other on this and that from time to time. Young people would llke to

make as much money as they could and spend as much money as they could earn

while older folks are easily satisfied with what they earn and save as much as

possible. Young people llke the exciting and deafening pop music while older

folks prefer melodious folk-songs or classic music. A boy and a glrl today may

fall in love with each other as quick as lightning, while their parents or grand

parents might trudge over a long distance before they kissed each other and

became lovers when they were young.

However, we should not be amazed at the generation gap,for it is quite

natural in the development of society. The world is a changing world, in which

everything keeps changing, generations of human beings included. And changes

lead to progress.

Making Every Day Earth Day

Now the earth is in bad condition. For example, in some places, the air and water pollution is so serious that it causes many deaths. At the same time, many animals and plants are in danger because of the destruction of their habitats.

Luckily, we human beings have realized the problem. On April 22nd, millions of people across the world do something good for the earth. Some clean up beaches and water, some pick up rubbish, others give speeches to call on more people to take action. But can we save the earth only by one day’s work? The future of our planet depends on our efforts. What we should do is to make every day Earth Day. Only by taking good care of it every day can we hope to live in harmony with nature.

友谊是一条善良的河流,澄清着沿路的风尘;是上天在人的心灵中植下的一方净土,培育着诚实善良的花朵。下面是小编整理的关于友谊的英语作文，希望对大家有帮助。 关于友谊的英语作文一：

Friendship is a kind of human relations. It is a human instinct to make friends.When in trouble, we

need friends to offer us help, support and encouragement. With success achieved, we also need friends to share our joys.

Friendship is also one of the greatest pleasures that we can enjoy. It implies loyalty, cordiality, sympathy, affection,and readiness to help. No man can make the most of his life without carefully and conscientiously striving to win the right kind of friends as he goes along.

Knowing how valuable friendship is, we should be very careful in making friends. Real friends are those who have good character, superior ability and kindness of heart. Real friends can share all our sorrows and double all our joys.While making friends, we should take care to select those who have such fine qualities. Then we should treat our friends with courtesy, be careful not to interfere unreasonably with them,and not to ridicule their proceedings. We should forgive their failures and do our best to help them. In short, when we have established friendship, we ought to cherish and treasure it by means of words and deeds. Only thus, can we develop real friendship and keep the sacred lamp of friendship burning all our life. 关于友谊的英语作文二：

making friends is a skill like many other skills. it improves with practice. if you want to meet people and make friends, you must be willing to take some actions. you must first go where there are people. you won’t make friends staying home alone. join a club or a group. taking with those who like the same things as you do is much easier. or join someone in some activities. many people are nervous when talking to new people. after all meeting strangers means facing the unknown. and it’s human nature to feel a bit uncomfortable about the unknown. most of our fears about dealing with new people come from doubts about ourselves. we imagine other people are judging us of finding us too tall or to short, too this or too that. but don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. try to accept yourself as you are and try to put the other person at ease. you’ll both feel more comfortable.

try to be self-comfident even if you don’t feel that way. when you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom, walk tall and straight, look directly at other people and smile.

if you see someone you like to speak to, say something . don’t wait for the other person to start a conversation.

just meeting someone new does not mean that you will make friends with that person-friendship is based on mutual liking and “give and take”. it takes time and effort to develop. 关于友谊的英语作文三：

Friendship Friends play an important part in our lives,and although we may take friendship for granted,we often dont clearly understand how we make friends.While we get on well with a number of people,we are usually friends with only a very few----for example,the average among students is about 6 per person.In all the cases of friendly relationships,two people like one another and enjoy being together.but beyond that,the degree of intimacy between them and the reasons for the shared interests vary enormously.As we get to know people we take into account things like age,race ,economic conditions,social position,and intelligence.Although these factors are not of prime importance,it is more difficult to get on with people when there is a marked difference in age and background.

Some friendly relationships can be kept on argument and discussion,but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs,to have attitudes and interests in commen ---they often talk about being on the same wavelength .it generally takes time to reach this point.And the more intimately involved people become,the more they rely on one another .people want to do friends favours and hate to break a promise.Equally,friends have to learn to put up with annoying habits and try to tolerate differencesof opinion.wWw.xiNgkoo.coMIn contrast with marriage ,there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the association between two persons.But the supporting and understanding of each other that results from shared experiences and emotions does seem to a powerful bond ,which can overcome differences in background ,and break down barriers of age, class or race. 关于友谊的英语作文四：

Friendship is priceless, is not buy friendship, and when you give up your friendship who, you need his help, he can not help you, even if you can not buy with thousands of gold back.

I am a heavy feeling of people, sense of obligation, so there are a lot of friends, such as: "Tang Tao, Zhou Jie, Liu Longyu, Liu Fan, off field ... ... my good friend, are infinite in number, no one told me they After a wonderful childhood, with these friends, my childhood full of joy.

Dragon Boat race Traditions

At the center of this festival are the dragon boat races. Competing teams drive their colorful dragon boats forward to the rhythm of beating drums. These exciting races were inspired by the villagers valiant attempts to rescue Chu Yuan from the Mi Luo river. This tradition has remained unbroken for centuries.

Tzung Tzu

A very popular dish during the Dragon Boat festival is tzung tzu. This tasty dish consists of rice dumplings with meat, peanut, egg yolk, or other fillings wrapped in bamboo leaves. The tradition of tzung tzu is meant to remind us of the village fishermen scattering rice across the water of the Mi Luo river in order to appease the river dragons so that they would not devour Chu Yuan.

Ay Taso

The time of year of the Dragon Boat Festival, the fifth lunar moon, has more significance than just the story of Qu Yuan. Many Chinese consider this time of year an especially dangerous time when extra efforts must be made to protect their family from illness. Families will hang various herbs, called Ay Tsao, on their door for protection. The drinking of realgar wine is thought to remove poisons from the body. Hsiang Bao are also worn. These sachets contain various fragrant medicinal herbs thought to protect the wearer from illness.

We couldnt believe that it was a village. The buildings for the farmers were very beautiful, the streets were very clean and there were many flowers in front of the houses. In the middle of the village there was a school with a wonderful building and a large playground. All the children in the village study there.

for lifetime. The way to get along with each other and the tolerance of both

sides are key factors to decide whether a couple can stay forever.

保护动物高中英语作文一：Protect wild animals

Many animals are in danger of dying out. As is shown in the chart, we can see the number of animal species decreases faster and faster and this trend will continue. From 1980 to 2010, at least 1 million animal species have disappeared. Worse still, more and more wild animals are in great danger. It is not a piece of sensational news; it is a fact, a harsh reality. Unfortunately, we may not see these animals in the near future.

From the second picture, we can find some reasons. Why is the number of animal species declining year by year? Apparently animals have become victims of fashion industry. Animal skin has been used to make fashionable clothes and these clothes sell at a high price. So some greedy people begin to kill animals in a large quantity. This irresponsible behavior not only breaks the balance of nature but also endangers the living environment of human beings.

As far as I am concerned, something must be done to stop this illegal action. We believe "no buying, no killing". First, we must make concerning laws to protect these animals in danger. Second, we must take some measures to protect animals effectively. Animals are our friends and part of our environment. Third, we should raise peoples awareness to protect animals and our environment. In this way, we can build a harmonious society and ensure a sustainable development.

I am a student from Xinhua High School in Chongqing，China. Informed that you have a vacancy for a student to serve as the spokesman for animals, I cannot resist my inner excitement,hoping to seize the opportunity to do something for animals .

In my mind，nothing can delight me so much as caring for animals. Wherever I go and whatever I do, I usually keep in mind that animals are angels from the heaven, which bring us endless comfort and pleasure. I have been a panda lover since my childhood. Panda is so lovely that brings fun to people and they are regarded as the treasure of our country. Unfortunately，such a rare species is now faced with the danger of being extinct。What I am eager to do is to raise people’s awareness of animal protection and appeal to more people to care for our earth companies.

保护动物高中英语作文三：Animals Need Protecting

Animals are natural resources that people have wasted all through our history. Animals have been killed for their fur and feathers, for food, for sport, and simply because they were in the way. Thousands of kinds of animals have disappeared from the earth forever. Hundreds more are on the danger list today. About 170 kinds in the United States alone are considered in danger.

Why should people care? Because we need animals, and because once they are gone, there will never be any more. Animals are more than just beautiful or interesting. They are more than just a source of food. Every animal has its place in the balance of nature. Destroying one kind of animal can create many problems. For example, when farmers killed large numbers of hawks, the farmers stores of corn and grain were destroyed by rats and mice. Why? Because hawks eat rats and mice, with no hawks to keep down their numbers, the rats and mice multiplied quickly.

Luckily, some people are working to help save the animals. Some groups raise money to let people know about the problem. And they try to get the governments to pass laws protecting animals in danger. Quite a few countries have passed laws. These laws forbid the killing of any animal or plant on the danger list. Slowly, the number of some animals in danger is growing.

保护动物高中英语作文五：How tu protect animals

It is known to everyone that the unrestrained slaughter of wild animals has diminished the number of some endangered species. More and more species are being driven to extinction every year. It is terrible to think that magnificent animals are being sacrificed to human vanity

There are already laws enacted to prevent the importation of rare animals and the products made from their flesh, skin and bones.

These laws must be strictly enforced. Violators of these laws must be severely punished .Moreover, the public must be informed about the natural treasures we stand to lose .If we don’t take immediate action, we will be depriving future generations of our most precious heritage.

In Taiwan, because most people do not understand the importance of wildlife, the wildlife is in a poor situation. We Chinese are fond of eating anything delicious, so there are many animals killed by hunters. People enjoy eating tigers, bears, birds, and lions, so there are fewer and fewer birds flying in the sky and fewer and fewer bears running here and there in the forest. Instead, we often see them for sale at the market. How poor they are! And how cruel we are!

In my opinion, we should try every possible way to preserve wildlife. First, no one is allowed to hurt any wild animal. Second, the authorities concerned should punish those who kill any wild animal. Third, we should pay more attention to those endangered species to protect them from being eaten. If we can do so, nature must become very beautiful.

保护动物高中英语作文六：How to protect the animals？

Animals are our friends.But how to protect them? government is working to protect all animals in danger,and has made lots of plans to save animals. On the other hand, we shouldn’t eat wild animals.We should keep them away from our dinner. That way,there will not be wild animals on sale. I think the hunters and killers will become fewer and fewer.

Last, we should protect the environment.We should stop people from cutting trees down. Without trees, wild animals will lose their home. And we will lose our animal friends. All of us should try our best to protect animals.

We need to protect animals better.We should give them fresh water to drink.We should make the forests bigger for animals in danger to live in.We should advice people not to kill animals beacause they are our friends!

Traveling is a good activity. When you are fed up with your work and study, and when you are free, you can go to a beautiful place to enjoy the beauty of nature, you can breathe fresh air, and make some friends. But sometimes, it is not a good thing. The weather often changes, you may be caught in the rain and may catch a cold while traveling. Therefore, you should prepare yourself carefully before the trip. You had better find a companion, so that you can help each other.

The population of the world has already passed six billion. The population problem may be the greatest challenge of the world today. The earth has been very crowded and there will be standing room only before long.

China’s One Child Policy is a good way to solve this problem and stop the population from growing so fast. It also can help our country develop quickly then people’s standard of living will become higher and higher.

At the same time a lot of other problems will be done with, such as employment problems, food problems, water problems and so on…So I think it is necessary for China to carry out this policy.
