一件难忘的事的英语作文带翻译(优秀20篇)

On Sense of Responsibility

By sense of responsibihty， we mean the realization of one＇s task， duty or obligation。 As a teacher， one should he reslonsible to the students。 As a student， one should recognize his or her duty and should be blamed if one fails to carry out one＇s duty。

Duty calls for the students to study hard。 It is no easy task。 I have to plnck up my courage， face the difficulties and accept thechallenge。 I must be responsible re myself for everything I do。

Now my heart isheavy with the burden of senseof responsibility。 The pressure lends to my care and worry， but I should be thankful for it。 This sense of responsibility spurs me to go on。 I must make steady progress in study， My ability and attitude toward life and study concerns not only the school， but also my own future。 To have a good position in society， to repay my parents， teachers and the school leaders for their kindness， I must study hard。 Relying on my own efforts I want to be my best self。

From now on， I will read books that I do not like to read， and do things that I do not like to do。 In fact， there is no absolute like or dislike。 The more you read， the more you are interested in reading。 I have had such personal experience。 Therefore， I can carry on to the end， doing things in which I am uninterested to the end。 It concerns my future。

责任感

所谓责任感，就是认识到自己的任务、职责和义务。作为一个老师，要对学生负责；作为学生，应认识到自己的职责，如果不履行职责，就应受到责备。

责任要求学生努力学习，这任务可不轻，我得鼓起勇气，面对困难，接受挑战。我必须对自己所做的一切负责。

现在，我心里的责任感比任何时候都沉重，这种压力给我带来烦恼和苦衷，但我又要感谢这种责任感对我的鞭策。我必须学得踏实，因为我现在所做的一切不仅仅为在学校有个交代，也为自己未来在社会上有一席之地，以报答父母、老师和学校领导的厚爱。我必须努力学习，依靠个人努力而完善自我。

今后，我要看不喜欢看的书，做不喜欢做的事，事实上，没有绝对的喜欢和不喜欢。书是越读越有趣，我有切身体会。因此，我要把不感兴趣的事做到底，这关系到我的未来。

When I was six years old, my cousin in tainan got married. Five people, including father, mother, two brothers and I, I took a taxi to the wedding. Its a beautiful scenery along the way. When I was looking at the scenery, however, the taxi door suddenly opened and I fell off immediately. My father and mother took me to the hospital. Luckily, only my nose was broken. After treatment, I took the red nose to the party.

My mother later told me that if there was a car coming, from behind us, I would be killed. Its a close phone. Since then, I have never taken the first step to ensure that the door has been closed and a taxi has been closed.

When I was a little child, I was so naughty that I always did something angry my parents. They always blamed to me, but I never listened to them. I thought they were too strict with me. But I changed in someday. My parents always told me to be careful when I went out. However, all I thought was they worried too much. On my way to take the bus home, there was a traffic light. That day, when I got to the cross road, the light was red, but there was no car crossed the road anymore. So I went across the road without the light turning to green. At this moment, a car rushed quickly towards me. I was suddenly scared, so that I couldn’t move but stood still. Luckily, the driver broke the car quickly and I did not get hurt. But I did scared. I couldn’t image what would happen if the car did not stop in time. I told my parents what I experienced. At first, they blamed me as usual and I knew I was wrong that time. Therefore, I did not say anything. They realized that I was frightened, so they comforted me patiently. I finally knew that all they said and done was good to me. After that, I was much more careful and I listened to my parents.

当我还是个小孩的时候，我很淘气，经常做一些使父母生气的事。他们总是责备我，但是我从来不听他们的话。我觉得他们对我太严厉了。但是，有一天我改变了。我父母经常告诉我出门的时候要小心，但是我总觉得是他们过于担心了。在我乘坐公车回家的路上有一个红绿灯。那天，我走到十字路口的时候，变红灯了，但是没有车过马路。于是灯没变绿我就过马路了。正在这时候，一辆汽车快速向我冲过来，顿时我慌了，站在那里动也不动。幸运的是，司机紧急刹车了，而我也没有受伤。但是，我确实受到惊吓了。我不敢想象如果车没有及时停住的话会发生什么事情。我告诉父母这次经历，起初他们像往常一样责备我，而那一次我也知道错了。因此，我一句话也没说。他们意识到我受惊了，于是耐心安慰我。最后我才知道他们所说的和所做的都是为我好。从那以后，我更小心了也听父母的话了。

《简·爱》这一部世界文学宝库中的不朽之作，最近被我发现了。我仔细地阅读着。《简。爱》的作者是英国的夏洛蒂。勃朗特，她出生在英国约克郡一山区小镇桑顿，是乡村牧师帕特里克。勃朗特的第三个孩子。夏洛蒂在1847年8月写成了长篇小说《简。爱》。《简爱》故事主要讲了小姑娘简爱从少女长大成人的故事。简爱自幼没了父母，被亲舅舅收养着。舅舅去世后，舅妈整天欺负简爱。后来，简爱被送到了孤儿院，在那里生活了8年。然后，简又去当家庭教师，最后与罗切斯特先生结婚。

我很喜欢第五章：来到洛伍德(洛伍德孤儿院)。当时，简刚到孤儿院，她经历了十分辛苦的一天。那个孤儿院的孩子们一周最多能吃两次面包加干酪和咖啡，而且他们吃到烧坏了的粥都不敢吭声，每天早上起来要很晚才能等到洗脸的水，那里的老师非常严厉，做错一点事都要站在大厅里受罚，但事，有一位老师谭波儿小姐却破了一些规定，让学生们过上了好一点的日子。

简爱的不幸让我觉得：现在的生活太美好了，我们要珍惜现在的生活。遇到挫折也不能不坚强。

History

Historian Nicholas Rogers, exploring the origins of Halloween, notes that while "some folklorists have detected its origins in the Roman feast of Pomona, the goddess of fruits and seeds, or in the festival of the dead called Parentalia, it is more typically linked to the Celtic festival of Samhain, whose original spelling was Samuin (pronounced sow-an or sow-in)".The name is derived from Old Irish and means roughly "summers end".Snap-Apple Night (1832) by Daniel Maclise.Depicts apple bobbing and divination games at a Halloween party in Blarney, Ireland.The name Halloween and many of its present-day traditions derive from the Old English era.

The word Halloween is first attested in the 16th century and represents a Scottish variant of the fuller All-Hallows-Even ("evening"), that is, the night before All Hallows Day.[4] Although the phrase All Hallows is found in Old English (ealra hālgena mæssedæg, mass-day of all saints), All-Hallows-Even is itself not attested until 1556.

11月1日 -- 万圣节 All Saints Day

11月2日 -- 墨西哥的鬼节 Day of Death

万圣节(All Saints Day, All Hallows Day或Hallowmas) 是每年11月1日的欧美大节日。

Halloween 是 All Hallows Eve 的缩写，万圣节前夜的意思，指10月31日的晚上。

For thousands of years people have been celebrating different holidays and festivals at the end of October. The Celts celebrated it as Samhain (pronounced “sow-in”, with “sow” rhyming with cow)。 The Irish English dictionary published by the Irish Texts Society defines the word as follows:

“Samhain, All Hallowtide, the feast of the dead in Pagan and Christian times, signalizing the close of harvest and the initiation of the winter season, lasting till May, during which troops (esp. the Fiann) were quartered. Faeries were imagined as particularly active at this season. From it the half year is reckoned. also called Feile Moingfinne (Snow Goddess)。(1) The Scottish Gaelis Dictionary defines it as ”Hallowtide. The Feast of All Soula. Sam + Fuin = end of summer.“(2) Contrary to the information published by many organizations, there is no archaeological or literary evidence to indicate that Samhain was a deity. The Celtic Gods of the dead were Gwynn ap Nudd for the British, and Arawn for the Welsh. The Irish did not have a ”lord of death“ as such.

The Celts believed that every year on the last day of October, the souls of the dead visited the earth.www.

When the Romans conquered the Celts in the first century A.D., they added parts of their festivals, Feralia and Pomona to the tradition. Feralia was a festival to honor the dead and Pomona was a harvest festival named after the goddess of fruit (apples) and trees.

Around the eigth century, the Christian church made November 1 All Saints Day to honor all of the saints that didnt have a special day of their own. Over the years these festivals combined, the mass held on All Saints Day was called Allhallowmas (the mass of all Hallows - saintly people)。 The night before was known as All Hallows Eve. Eventually this name became Halloween.

In the 1800s, as a lot of people emigrated to the U.S., the holidays and traditions of different cultures merged. Halloween was not always a happy time. October 31, or the night before took on other names. Some called it Devils or Hell night, to others it was mischief night. Here in Vermont, the night before is called cabbage night. To some people this became a time to play tricks on others. Some of these tricks were not fun at all. Luckily, community groups and individuals took action and started to change Halloween into a family event. Dressing up in costumes and going ”trick or treating“, costume parades, community parties and Fall festivals are some of the ways that Halloween is celebrated today.

Other countries have different Fall festivals to honor the deceased.

The Festival of the Dead is one of the most important happenings in both Palermo and the rest of Sicily. The second of November is a festival day for the children of Palermo as, according to tradition,they were made to believe that their dead relatives would return the night before and leave them traditional sweets and cakes on the table (Martorana fruit, which is almond paste made into the shape of different fruit)。 They would also receive puppets of boiled sugar and toys. Its one way of keeping the memory of their dead relatives and loved ones alive.

一年中最”闹鬼“的这天夜里，各种妖魔鬼怪、 海盗、 外星来客和巫婆们纷纷出动。在基督纪元以前，凯尔特人在夏未举行仪式感激上苍和太阳的恩惠。

当时的占卜者点燃并施巫术以驱赶据说在四周游荡的妖魔怪。后来，罗马人用果仁和苹果来庆祝的丰收节与凯尔特人的10月31日溶合了。

在中世纪，人们穿上动物造型的服饰、 戴上可怕的面具是想在万圣节前夜驱赶黑夜中的鬼怪。尽管後来基督教代替了凯尔特和罗马的宗教活动，早期的习俗还是保留下来了。现在，孩子们带着开玩笑的心理穿戴上各种服饰和面具参加万圣节舞会，这些舞会四周的墙上往往悬挂着用纸糊的巫婆、 黑猫、 鬼怪和尸骨，窗前和门口则吊着龇牙裂嘴或是面目可憎的南瓜灯笼。孩子们还常常试图咬住悬挂着的苹果。

美国和加拿大的孩子们在这天穿戴上古怪的服饰去按邻居家的门铃，并按传统发出”是款待我还是要我耍花招“的威胁。邻居们不管是否被吓着，总是准备了一些糖果、 苹果等点心，孩子们则一一收入自己的袋内。

万圣节其实不是基督教的节日。2500年前，爱尔兰的凯尔特人(Celts)以10月31日为一年的最後一日，11月1日是新一年的开始，也象徵冬天的来临。

凯尔特人相信死亡之神Samhain在10月31日的晚上会和鬼魂一起重返人间，寻找替身。因此他们燃点火炬，焚烧动物以作为死亡之神的献礼。还会用动物的头或皮毛做成的服饰打扮自己，发出古怪的声音，使死亡之神认不出自己，避过灾难。这就是今天万圣节化妆舞会的由来。过了当晚，鬼魂回到阴间，一切回复平静。

基督教兴起，教徒沿袭万圣节传统，万圣节的意义慢慢改为纪念为献身於神而死亡的人(holies)。

附带一提，11月2日是墨西哥的鬼节(Los Dias de los Muertos, Day of the Dead)。当天家家户户都烘烤动物造型的面包和煮鸡肉等食物，并在供桌上面放置玩具，以期待早逝的孩童们回到家中玩耍。也可以陈列鲜花、 水果、 照片和彩绘的骷髅头，接待仙逝长辈。

墨西哥人认为，鬼魂和人一样需要及时行乐，所以鬼节宛若一场嘉年华会，人们带着面具到处游走，吃骷髅形状的糖，面包上还装饰有鬼的形像。黄昏时刻，全家人一起到墓园清理墓地，妇女们或跪或坐整夜祈祷，男人们交谈或唱歌，在子夜中烛光忽闪忽灭充满了整个墓园，游唱歌者为已逝亡者的灵魂高歌吟唱。

When I was young, there was a funny thing that I wanted to laugh at all.

Once, grandma from the flower market bought a bowl of ornamental red pepper. I see, those small fruit crystal translucent, in the sun shining under the light. They are like a "red lantern" as in the green leaves against the background, very beautiful. I think: these fruits so red, certainly as delicious as cherries.

So, while the grandmother did not pay attention, I picked one, learn the way the grandmother wash to eat. Mouth a bite, suddenly pepper like a fried the same, spicy my mouth like a fire as uncomfortable. I quickly drink cold water, drink a lot, but still no use. At this time, my grandmother came, and saw my mouth, his face flushed, asked me how, but at this time I have been chili hot can not speak.

Although this thing over the past few years, but has been recorded in my heart, when to think of it wanted to laugh. Because it records my beautiful, ignorant childhood.

One Sunday my mother (Mother) had (made) me take my little young brother to

the a trip to the country。 She bade me take good care of him。

While we were walking along the road， the sun was shining brightly and the

breeze was blowing gently。 We saw the beautiful flowers smile (smiling) at us

and heard the birds sing (singing) their sweet songs on the trees。 The scenery

was indeed very pretty (beautiful)。

When we felt tired， we returned home。 We saw Mother (our mother) wait

(waiting) for us at the door。

有一个星期日，我母亲叫我带小弟弟去乡村游历。她吩咐我要好好照料他。

当我们沿着道路行走的时候，太阳灿烂地照耀着，微风轻轻地吹着。我们看见美丽的花儿对我们微笑着，并听见鸟儿在树上唱着悦耳的歌曲，风景实十分美丽。

当我们感觉到疲倦的时候，我们就回家了。我们看见母样正在门口等候我们。
