1000茶文化英语作文高5
全文共 1909 字
+ 加入清单The Chinese people, in their drinking of tea, place much significance on
the act of savoring. Savoring tea is not only a way to discern good tea from
mediocre tea, but also how people take delight in their reverie and in
tea-drinking itself. Snatching a bit of leisure from a busy schedule, making a
kettle of strong tea, securing a serene space, and serving and drinking tea by
yourself can help banish fatigue and frustration, improve your thinking ability
and inspire you with enthusiasm. You may also imbibe it slowly in small sips to
appreciate the subtle allure of tea-drinking, until your spirits soar up and up
into a sublime aesthetic realm. Buildings, gardens, ornaments and tea sets are
the elements that form the ambience for savoring tea. A tranquil, refreshing,
comfortable and neat locale is certainly desirable for drinking tea. Chinese
gardens are well known in the world and beautiful Chinese landscapes are too
numerous to count. Teahouses tucked away in gardens and nestled beside the
natural beauty of mountains and rivers are enchanting places of repose for
people to rest and recreate themselves.China is a country with a time-honored
civilization and a land of ceremony and decorum. Whenever guests visit, it is
necessary to make and serve tea to them. Before serving tea, you may ask them
for their preferences as to what kind of tea they fancy and serve them the tea
in the most appropriate teacups. In the course of serving tea, the host should
take careful note of how much water is remaining in the cups and in the kettle.
Usually, if the tea is made in a teacup, boiling water should be added after
half of the cup has been consumed; and thus the cup is kept filled so that the
tea retains the same bouquet and remains pleasantly warm throughout the entire
course of tea-drinking. Snacks, sweets and other dishes may be served at tea
time to complement the fragrance of the tea and to allay ones hunger.

+ 加入清单The imperial palace, also known as the Forbidden City, is the imperial
palace of the Ming and qing dynasties, which is the largest and most complete
ancient architectural complex in China. I especially want to know the
architecture of ancient palaces and the living environment of ancient
emperors.
One weekend in the golden autumn, the sun is shining and the autumn wind is
crisp. My mother and I went to visit the Palace Museum in the center of the
city. I was very happy.
Enter the gate of the Forbidden City, "wow! Its so big here!" I couldnt
help it. The mother said, "the most spectacular is still in the back!" We first
visited the architectural model of the imperial palace and its construction. I
know that the imperial palace covers an area of over 720,000 square meters, with
more than 9,000 rooms, all wooden structures, and all the wooden structures have
no nails. The palace is the blue and white stone base, the tall roof, the yellow
glazed tile, the pattern of the dragon everywhere, and decorated with the
brilliant color of the golden wall. I observed all the palaces, and found that
the palaces were lined up along the north-south axis, and spread out to the
sides, to the north and south, and to the right and left. I told mom, I found
mother listen to nod a smile, said: "the central axis not only in the Forbidden
City, and nanda YongDingMen, north to the drum tower, almost throughout the
whole city. Its magnificent, well-planned and spectacular.
We have been visiting the taihe temple from the imperial garden. What a
breathtaking view! In the Forbidden City, the most striking is the "three halls"
: the hall of supreme harmony, the hall of harmony, the hall of protection and
the temple. They are all built on the 8-meter-high base of the white jade, which
looks like the qiong yuyu in the myth. The first hall of supreme harmony was the
most magnificent building. People called it the "throne room". It was the place
where the emperor held the grand ceremony. It is 28 meters high, 63 meters, 35
meters north and south, and a large pillar with a diameter of 1 meter. Among
them, six large pillars, one meter in diameter around the throne, are flat
dragon pillars of leached gold. The throne is located at the base of the two
meters high in the temple, with the graceful crane and the top of the furnace,
followed by a carefully carved screen. The whole hall is decorated with golden
walls, which are both majestic and magnificent. The hall of neutralization was
the place where the emperor went to the hall of supreme harmony to take a rest
and exercise etiquette. Baohe and the temple are the place where the emperor
gives banquet to the king of the foreign land every New Year. This is just the
palace buildings, and house decoration is numerous, the rarities of the mother
said: "these treasures is only part of it, when Chiang kai-shek fled to Taiwan
carried away many treasure palace, there are some loss in a foreign country". I
feel sorry for the loss of these treasures. When will these lost treasures
return to the embrace of the motherland? I am looking forward to the reunion of
Taiwan and mainland as soon as possible.
The visit of the Forbidden City made me linger. The Palace Museum is an
unparalleled masterpiece. It is a miracle. Our five thousand years of Chinese
culture are profound and profound, and we should be proud and proud to have
built such a magnificent palace for the ancients. At the same time, we also have
the responsibility to protect these cultural relics from destruction, so that
the five thousand years of splendid civilization of the motherland will be
handed down.

the early bird will catch worms
an old saying "the early bird will catch worms" reminds us that if people want to be successful and outstanding, they must plan ahead of time and make their efforts to overcome all the possible difficulties.
for example, the chinese athletes excellent performance in xx olympic winter games in vancouver is definitely the result of their early planning and hard training. if they don t set the aim and word work, even though they have the best talents, they cant compete with others and get more medals.
another case in point is my learning experience. i was good at english, but i couldnt pass the exam, for i wasnt prepared well before the examination. i had many things to solve at that time. as i met the complex things, i was at a loss. the reason was that i had no plan and involved in many things and didnt study more hard, so i failed.
in short, the saying shows us the important of planning, working hard and constantly trying.

fathers day yet. Lady Dodd had lost her mother when she was very young, her
father raised her grew up. Lady Dodd was so thankful for what her father had
done for her that she wrote a letter to the government. In the letter, she
appeals to establish the fathers day. The government accepted her suggestion
and decided that the third Sunday of June is the national father’s day. In 1972,

June the third Sunday. From this year, the world started to celebrate father’s

jumping up like a child. After a while, the full cabin fish alive and kicking,
calm sea filled with coming from all sides of the fishermens
laughter.........
Now, like this "fish and shrimp full cabin" scene has been very rare. In
todays market, is the most common fish pound at least to dozens of yuan, more
serious pollution of the ocean, the ocean resources gradually dried up, seafood
production, prices rise, it illustrates this point?
In the ocean of natural calamities and man-made misfortunes emerge in an
endless stream today, human pollution is often not from the original intention,
but it is caused by the unexpected effect. The British Petroleum oil, because
the drilling platform explosion, caused by the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico,
to 9900 square kilometers of sea water is seriously polluted, so that tens of
thousands of seabirds soaked in oil to move, die in hunger and misery, makes
countless fish poisoning death; and the Japanese earthquake and tsunami
triggered a nuclear leak the marine pollution is more serious......
The sea is so vast that it is because the rivers and streams flow into the
Yangtze River and then run into the sea. If we do not solve the pollution
problem from the source, then no matter how people clean up the sea, there will
always be sewage flowing into the sea, and all the efforts will be futile. Now,
streams and streams are often seriously polluted, or they become places where
people dump rubbish or are loaded with pesticide cans. Finding a clear stream in
an inhabited area can be very difficult today!
In any case, the protection of the oceans can not be achieved by individual
forces, and the protection of the oceans depends on the joint efforts of all
mankind. I do not want one day in the future, our descendants can only imagine
the image of the vast and wide sea.
This is not only the wish of a pupil, but also the wish of all mankind,
isnt it?

They are composed of a group of enthusiastic young people who love public
welfare and support the public welfare undertakings of the society.
In the volunteer organization, every volunteer is equal, everyone is equal
in personality and status, everyone has come together for a common goal, it can
be said that they are the most intimate brothers and sisters without blood!
A team is composed of people, and there must be a certain division of labor
according to peoples abilities. Some people are suitable for leadership, some
people are suitable for publicity, and some people are happy to be ordinary
volunteers working on the front line.
The so-called people do their best.
Only make the best use of it! Only such a group can flourish and thrive! If
you just divide the volunteers into three, six or nine classes based on their
abilities, identities, and statuses, it will hurt not only a persons emotional
problems, but also the longevity. , the affinity and cohesion of the team will
be greatly reduced! If the composition of the volunteers are all dignitaries,
then the transparency of the volunteers will have to be doubted by the
world.
Although it is said that if you are poor, you will be alone, and if you are
good, you will help the world, but it does not rule out that there will be some
people who are not rich and not very capable, but are willing to do their best
to join this organization. I think we should also. Accept them with a tolerant
heart, because our organization is voluntary, fair, and equal!
志愿者是城市跳动的脉搏,是都市亮丽的风景,由一群热爱公益的热血青年组成,撑起了社会的公益事业。
在志愿者组织中,每一位志愿者都是平等的,大家在人格上,地位上都是平等的,大家为了一个共同的目标走到了一起,可以说是最为亲密的,没有血缘的兄妹!
一个团队,由人组成,根据人的能力必然有了一定的.分工,有的人适合做领导,有的人适合做宣传,而有的人乐于做一个普通的义工工作在第一线。
所谓人尽其才。
才尽其用!这样的团体才能蓬勃发展,蒸蒸日上!若硬是把志愿者依据能力、身份、地位的不同,分出个三六九等,所伤及的怕不只是一个人的情感问题,天长日久,团队的亲和力、凝聚力怕是要大打折扣!倘若志愿者的组成都是些达官显贵,那么志愿者的透明程度,就不得不让世人怀疑了。
虽说有穷则独善其身,达则兼济天下一说,可也并不排除会有一些并不富裕,能力不是很强,却愿意尽自己绵薄之力的人愿意加入这个组织,我想我们也要以一个宽容的心来接纳他们,因为我们的组织是宗旨是志愿、公平、平等!

+ 加入清单In China, Mid-autumn Day is considered to be a symbol of family reunion. On
this day, all the family members gather together at home to celebrate this
special occasion. Last year, I could not celebrate the festival with my family
because I was in university. However, this special day left a deep impression on
me.
I still remember the atmosphere of that evening. All the students who could
not go back home assembled in our classroom, having a party to celebrate this
traditional festival. We tried our best to show our own enthusiasm. As an ethnic
minority, I performed a peacock dance, which received warm applause. After the
two-hour party, we went out to the playground and sat together to appreciate the
moon because it is a tradition on Mid-autumn Day. (www.fwsir.com)We ate moon
cakes, played cards, and listened to romantic poems recited by one of our
classmates. In that harmonious atmosphere, nobody felt lonely or homesick even
though we were far away from our homes
Thanks to our classmates, I experienced such a colorful and interesting
Mid-autumn Day at my university. Thus, I learned to value all the festivals I
spent during my university life.

+ 加入清单As the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of
relaxation.Once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go
from morning till night,it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is essential for
a healthy mind and body. Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is
no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing as it is often supposed to
be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose
to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control can it lead to poor
performance and iiihealth. The amount of stress a person can withstand depends
very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress, and such
characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities. Others
lose heart at the first signs of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress,
in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact, we make a
choice between "flight or fight"and in more primitive days the choices made the
difference between life or death.The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so
extreme, but however little the stress, it involves the same response. It is
when such a reaction lasts long, through continued exposure to stress, that
health becomes endangered. Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and
heart diseases have established links with stress. Since we cannot remove stress
from our lives (it would be unwise to do so even if we could), we need to find
ways to deal with it.
篇19:关于元宵节英语
全文共 6620 字
+ 加入清单There are many different beliefs about the origin of the Lantern Festival.
But one thing for sure is that it had something to do with celebrating and
cultivating positive relationship between people, families, nature and the
higher beings they believed were responsible for bringing/returning the light
each year.
One legend tells us that it was a time to worship Taiyi, the God of Heaven
in ancient times. The belief was that the God of Heaven controlled the destiny
of the human world. He had sixteen dragons at his beck and call and he decided
when to inflict drought, storms, famine or pestilence upon human beings.
Beginning with Qinshihuang, the first emperor to unite the country, all the
emperors ordered splendid ceremonies each year. The emperor would ask Taiyi to
bring favorable weather and good health to him and his people. Emperor Wudi of
the Han Dynasty directed special attention to this event. In 104 BC, he
proclaimed it as one of the most important celebrations and the ceremony would
last throughout the night. They clean it all up in the morning.
Another legend associates the Lantern Festival with Taoism. Tianguan is the
Taoist god responsible for good fortune. His birthday falls on the 15th day of
the first lunar month. It is said that Tianguan likes all types of
entertainment, so followers prepare various kinds of activities during which
they pray for good fortune.
Yet another common legend dealing with the origins of the Lantern Festival
speaks of a beautiful bird that flew down to earth from heaven, which was hunted
and killed by some villagers. This angered the Jade Emperor in Heaven because
the bird was his favorite one. Therefore, he planned a storm of fire to destroy
the village on the 15th lunar day. The Jade Emperors daughter heard of this
plan, and warned the villagers of her father’s plan to destroy their village.
The village was in turmoil because nobody knew how should they escape their
imminent destruction.
However, a wise man from another village suggested that every family should
hang red lanterns around their houses, set up bonfires on the streets, and
explode firecrackers on the 14th, 15th, and 16th lunar days. This would give the
village the appearance of being on fire to the Jade Emperor. On the 15th lunar
day, troops sent down from heaven whose mission was to destroy the village saw
that the village was already ablaze, and returned to heaven to report to the
Jade Emperor. Satisfied, the Jade Emperor decided not to burn down the village.
From that day on, people celebrate the anniversary on the 15th lunar day every
year by carrying red lanterns on the streets and exploding firecrackers and
fireworks.
There are many stories on how this festival was created. One other story is
about a maid. In the Han Dynasty, Mr. Eastern was a favorite advisor of the
emperor. One winter day, he went to the garden and heard a little girl crying
and getting ready to jump into a well to commit suicide. Mr. Eastern stopped her
and asked why. She said she was a maid in the emperors palace and her name was
Yuan-Xiao.
She never had the chance to meet her family after she started worked at the
palace. She missed them so much every 12th lunar month. If she couldnt have the
chance to show her filial piety in this life, she would rather die. Mr. Eastern
promised her to find a way so she could reunion with her family. Mr. Eastern
left the palace and set up a fortune-telling stall on the street and disguised
himself as a fortuneteller. Because of his reputation, many people asked for
their fortunes.
But every one got the same prediction - a severe fire accident on the 15th
lunar day. The rumor spread quickly. Everyone was worried about the future and
asked Mr. Eastern for help. Mr. Eastern said, "On the 13th lunar day, the God of
Fire will send a fairy lady in red to burn down the city. If you see a lady in
red wearing green pants riding a black horse on that day, you should ask for her
mercy." On that day, Yuan-Xiao pretended to be the red fairy lady. When people
asked for her help, she said, "Im the messenger of the God of Fire and came to
check on the city and Im going to set up fire on 15th. This is an order from
Jade Emperor. He will watch from the heavens.
I will give you a copy of the imperial decree from the God of Fire. You
should go to ask your emperor to find a way out." After she left, people went to
the palace to show the emperor the decree which reads "The capital city is in
trouble. Fire burns on the palace, and fire from Heaven burns all night long on
the 15th." The emperor of Han Dynasty was very shocked. He called and asked Mr.
Eastern for advice. After pondering for a while, Mr. Eastern said, "I heard that
the God of Fire likes to eat Tang-Yuan (Sweet dumpling). Does Yuan-Xiao often
cook Tang-Yuan for you? On the 15th lunar day, let Yuan-Xiao make Tang-Yuan.
Your Majesty will take charge of the worshipping ceremony and you will give
an order to every house to prepare Tang-Yuan to worship the God of Fire at the
same time. Also, deliver another order to ask every house in the city to hang
red lantern and explode fire crackers. Lastly, everyone in the palace and people
outside the city should carry their lanterns on the street to watch the lantern
decoration and fireworks. If everything goes this way, the Jade Emperor would be
deceived.
Then everyone can avoid the fire accident." The emperor happily followed
the plan. Lanterns were everywhere in the capital city on the night of the 15th
lunar day. People were walking on the street. Fire crackers kept making lots of
noise. It looked like the entire city was on fire. Yuan-Xiaos parents went into
the palace to watch the lantern decorations, and Yuan-Xiao made a big lantern
and wrote her name on the lantern. They happily reunited together after her
parents called her name. Everybody was safe during the night. The emperor of Han
Dynasty had a new order that people should do the same thing every year. Since
Yuan-Xiao cooked the best Tan-Yuan, people called the day Yuan-Xiao
Festival.
Young people were chaperoned in the streets in hopes of finding love.
Matchmakers acted busily in hopes of pairing couples. The brightest lanterns
were symbolic of good luck and hope. As time has passed, the festival no longer
has such implications.
Those who do not carry lanterns often enjoy watching informal lantern
parades. In addition to eating tangyuan (simplified Chinese: 汤圆; traditional

guessing lantern riddles (which became part of the festival during the Tang
Dynasty), which often contain messages of good fortune, family reunion, abundant
harvest, prosperity and love.
