Well, by the way, today I thought I saw daddy came home from work with a newspaper, I hurriedly found the father, "dad you back a newspaper today? "Dad puzzled nodded, I cant wait to say:" quick contribution out, I have an idea. "

When dad see me the paper pad in the wardrobe, harm my dad cant find newspapers and buy one. Now, I walk to school every day, no longer let father motorcycle send me; Every time I go shopping bring your own bag... I want to live a low-carbon life. Low carbon starts from me, lets construction of a new civilization, happiness, charm, donggang.

“低碳从小做起”，自从上六年级以来，只要我不节约，爸爸妈妈就会在我耳边说起这句话。 为此，我决定真的要做个低碳生活的执行者。 记得有一次，妈妈用完面膜之后，刚准备要扔掉，恰巧让我看到了，我连忙大喊一声阻止妈妈：“妈妈，不能扔掉!”妈妈听见了之后，立即停下。我飞快跑过去，夺下了妈妈手中的面膜。然后对妈妈说：“妈妈你用完的面膜不能扔，电视上说面膜用完之后可以擦家具，不仅擦得亮，而且还有香味。

”妈妈听了后，微笑着拍拍我头的说：“我女儿真的懂得低碳生活了。” 在爸爸面前我也不能服输，就在前几天，因为我们家的衣柜很潮湿，爸爸和妈妈都无计可施，这时我想到了奶奶常常用报纸垫在衣柜里，她说过报纸可以防潮，还可以吸收异味，于是我就去找报纸，但是以前用过的报纸都让我扔掉了，现在家里还真的没有报纸，人家都说“书到用时方恨少”今天我却想说“报纸用时方恨无”。嗯，对了，今天我好像看见爸爸下班时拿回来了一张报纸，我连忙找到了爸爸：“爸爸你今天是不是拿回来一张报纸?”爸爸疑惑不解的点点头，我迫不及待的说：“快贡献出来，我有办法了。”

当爸爸看我把报纸垫在衣柜里时，害的我爸爸找不到报纸又买啦一张。 现在，每天上学我都步行，再也不让爸爸摩托车送我;我每次逛街都自备口袋……我要过真正的低碳生活。 低碳从我做起，让我们一起来建设文明、幸福、魅力、新东港吧。

Poeple in villages are healthier than people in towns. That is because the air in villages is very fresh. Farmers are working all day in the fields, breathing fresh clean air. But there are too many factories in cities. They produce more and more harmful gases. At last, cities are full of smoke. And theres many dust in cities,too. It may cause a disease. So fresh air is very important to the people in cities. We need fresh air. So please dont pollute the air!

Western people would also prefer fast food like burgers and chips.

They are unhealthy to human body. Western people do not have many skills for cooking, mostly they only boil, steam and bake the food. By the way, western people are very good at making desert and chocolate. They can make very good cake and chocolate. They are very sweet but it’s sort of food which make you become fat quickly.

在过大年的前一天，妈妈带着我和从北京刚回来的甜甜去澡堂洗澡，可是没想到

到了澡堂，我心里暗想：这么多天都没有洗澡，一定要美美的冲一个热水澡来缓解疲乏。于是，我便很快地脱了衣服，拉起妹妹的手冲进澡堂。

可是，扑面而来的不是凉爽的湿气，而是闷热闷热的空气，其中还夹杂着一股汗味。这可把我害惨了，我被呛得扭头猛咳，仿佛胸部压了一块重金属，呼吸不上来，浑身燥热。再扭头放眼一看，天啊，这哪是澡堂，简直和赶集的差不多！

只见到处是人，每个淋浴头下站了三四个人；再看那儿，搓澡的阿姨更是辛苦，搓完这个又搓那个，招待不好又让顾客骂，搓疼了又不乐意；池子里几个小孩在玩，大人在一旁聊天，只听吆喝声、叫骂声、嬉戏声此起彼伏，响成一片，我都看呆了。

赶快洗澡吧，可在哪儿洗又是个问题。把整个淋浴区走了不下四五个来回，就是找不着地方，我们只好先泡木桶浴。可这样的环境谁有心情泡啊，于是我们匆匆出来继续找位。

看吧，淋浴区也是乱成一片，不要说洗了，走几步都困难。一个淋浴头犹如一片救命的面包，四五个人同时争夺，抢到的沾沾自喜，没抢到的虎视眈眈；碰着素质高点的，四五个人轮流冲冲，心里倒也舒服；如果素质不高从头霸占到尾，你就一边晾着去吧！要是个年轻人，动作利索，还有点盼头；要是上了年纪，嘿，你就媳妇变公婆慢慢熬吧！

我们可是做了个英明的决定：先搓后洗。这也是没办法，幸亏搓澡排得早，要不然可惨了。搓完后，我们充分发挥见缝插针的特点，总算抢到一个淋浴头，可没冲两下，就有人来问津，总不能不让吧，于是，就这样，两个半小时不知不觉地溜了过去

这囫囵澡一洗完，我便胡乱套上衣服，之前积蓄的一点点耐心也没了，留下一句老妈快点便带着妹妹逃命去也。这件事多么有趣啊！

River Pollution

Chinese people are now face to a serious problem--pollution. And this problem is a little bit different from others--the goverment can not solve it by themselves. We need everyone to protect our environment. But we also know that it is very hard to call everyone to join us to protect the environment. But it seems that they have found the way to let everybody know it. In a report, Anhui Daily called on residents to help protect the river against pollution. I am so glad about it. And i believe that somewhere the pollution must stop.

去年，我们一家去了在竹峪的小姨家过春节。那是一个乡村小镇，那里山清水秀、依山傍水、空气清新。真是一个如诗如画的好地方。

大年三十这天，我们先进行了大扫除。我负责擦门窗，妈妈负责拖地，爸爸负责贴窗花和对联，外婆负责买祭祖要用的东西，大姨和小姨负责做年夜饭。大家忙得不亦乐乎，每个人的脸上都洋溢着快乐、幸福的笑容。

接着我们在外婆的带领下，一群人浩浩荡荡的上山去祭祖。

来到坟墓前，大人们又是敬香，又是烧纸钱，每个人都排着队上前磕头。外婆嘴里还不停地念叨着一些让祖先保佑我们的吉祥话。虽然不知道祖先是不是真的能保佑我们，但我还是认真的敬着香、磕着头。感受着过年的每一个仪式，觉得这个年特别的有意思。

到了吃团年饭的时候。桌子上摆满了丰盛的饭菜：有鸡、有鸭、还有中国的传统美食：腊肉、香肠……桌子中间还摆着一条大大的红烧鱼，我知道那是每年必不可少的菜，因为它寓意着年年有余，一年更比一年好。

晚饭后，小姨买了很多的烟花。有擦炮、甩炮、金箍棒……这可是我梦寐以求的东西啊!今天终于如愿以偿了。我赶紧选了一个大礼炮要求爸爸把它点燃。随着一声巨响“咻——砰。”一朵朵绚丽多彩、璀璨夺目的烟花绽放在夜空中，把黑夜照得跟白天一样明亮。放完这个，我又迫不及待的放起了各式各样的烟花，一个接一个，我太开心了。因为我以前过春节都在城市里过的不能放烟花，今天我一定要痛痛快快的放个够。

就这样，我度过了一个难忘的春节。

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：

Chinese New Year or Spring Festival is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays. It is sometimes called the "Lunar New Year" by English speakers. The festival traditionally begins on the first day of the first month (Chinese: 正月; pinyin: zhēng yuè) in the Chinese calendar and ends on the 15th; this day is called Lantern Festival. Chinese New Years Eve is known as chú xī. It literally means "Year-pass Eve".

Chinese New Year is the longest and most important festivity in the Lunar Calendar. The origin of Chinese New Year is itself centuries old and gains significance because of several myths and traditions. Ancient Chinese New Year is a reflection on how the people behaved and what they believed in the most.

Celebrated in areas with large populations of ethnic Chinese, Chinese New Year is considered a major holiday for the Chinese and has had influence on the new year celebrations of its geographic neighbors, as well as cultures with whom the Chinese have had extensive interaction. These include Koreans (Seollal), Tibetans and Bhutanese (Losar), Mongolians (Tsagaan Sar), Vietnamese (T?t), and formerly the Japanese before 1873 (Oshogatsu). Outside of Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan, Chinese New Year is also celebrated in countries with significant Han Chinese populations, such as Singapore, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand. In countries such as Australia, Canada and the United States, although Chinese New Year is not an official holiday, many ethnic Chinese hold large celebrations and Australia Post, Canada Post, and the US Postal Service issues New Years themed stamps.

Within China, regional customs and traditions concerning the celebration of the Chinese new year vary widely. People will pour out their money to buy presents, decoration, material, food, and clothing. It is also the tradition that every family thoroughly cleans the house to sweep away any ill-fortune in hopes to make way for good incoming luck. Windows and doors will be decorated

with red colour paper-cuts and couplets with popular themes of “happiness”, “wealth”, and “longevity”. On the Eve of Chinese New Year, supper is a feast with families. Food will include such items as pigs, ducks, chicken and sweet delicacies. The family will end the night with firecrackers. Early the next morning, children will greet their parents by wishing them a healthy and happy new year, and receive money in red paper envelopes. The Chinese New Year tradition is a great way to reconcile forgetting all grudges, and sincerely wish peace and happiness for everyone.

Although the Chinese calendar traditionally does not use continuously numbered years, outside China its years are often numbered from the reign of Huangdi. But at least three different years numbered 1 are now used by various scholars, making the year 2009 "Chinese Year" 4707, 4706, or 4646.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：春节正月习俗的英文介绍

The Chinese New Year celebrations are marked by visits to kin, relatives and friends, a practice known as "new-year visits" (Chinese: 拜年; pinyin: bài nián). New clothes are usually worn to signify a new year. The colour red is liberally used in all decorations. Red packets are given to juniors and children by the married and elders. See Symbolism below for more explanation.

On the days before the New Year celebration Chinese families give their home a thorough cleaning. There is a Cantonese saying "Wash away the dirt on ninyabaat" (年廿八，洗邋遢), but the practice is not usually restricted on ninyabaat (年廿八, the 28th day of month 12). It is believed the cleaning sweeps away the bad luck of the preceding year and makes their homes ready for good luck. Brooms and dust pans are put away on the first day so that luck cannot be swept away. Some people give their homes, doors and window-frames a new coat of red paint. homes are often decorated with paper cutouts of Chinese auspicious phrases and couplets. Purchasing new clothing, shoes, and receiving a hair-cut also symbolize a fresh start.

In many households where Buddhism or Taoism is prevalent, home altars and statues are cleaned thoroughly, and altars that were adorned with decorations from the previous year are also taken down and burned a week before the new year starts, and replaced with new decorations. Taoists (and Buddhists to a lesser extent) will also "send gods" (送神), an example would be burning a paper effigy of Zao Jun the Kitchen God, the recorder of family functions. This is done so that the Kitchen God can report to the Jade Emperor of the family households transgressions and good

deeds. Families often offer sweet foods (such as candy) in order to "bribe" the deities into reporting good things about the family.

The biggest event of any Chinese New Years Eve is the dinner every family will have. A dish consisting of fish will appear on the tables of Chinese families. It is for display for the New Years Eve dinner. This meal is comparable to Christmas dinner in the West. In northern China, it is customary to make dumplings (jiaozi 饺子) after dinner and have it around midnight. Dumplings symbolize wealth because their shape is like a Chinese tael. By contrast, in the South, it is customary to make a new year cake (Niangao, 年糕) after dinner and send pieces of it as gifts to relatives and friends in the coming days of the new year. Niangao literally means increasingly prosperous year in year out. After the dinner, some families go to local temples, hours before the new year begins to pray for a prosperous new year by lighting the first incense of the year; however in modern practice, many households hold parties and even hold a countdown to the new lunar year. Beginning in the 1980s, the CCTV New Years Gala was broadcast four hours before the start of the New Year.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：First day 初一

The first day is for the welcoming of the deities of the heavens and earth, officially beginning at midnight. Many people, especially Buddhists, abstain from meat consumption on the first day because it is believed that this will ensure longevity for them. Some consider lighting fires and using knives to be bad luck on New Years Day, so all food to be consumed is cooked the day before. For Buddhists, the first day is also the birthday of Maitreya Bodhisattva (better known as the more familiar Budai Luohan), the Buddha-to-be. People also abstain from killing animals.

Most importantly, the first day of Chinese New Year is a time when families visit the oldest and most senior members of their extended family, usually their parents, grandparents or great-grandparents.

Some families may invite a lion dance troupe as a symbolic ritual to usher in the Lunar New Year as well as to evict bad spirits from the premises. Members of the family who are married also give red packets containing cash to junior members of the family, mostly children and teenagers.

While fireworks and firecrackers are traditionally very popular, some regions have banned them due to concerns over fire hazards, which have resulted in increased number of fires around New Years and challenged municipal fire departments work capacity. For this reason, various city governments (e.g., Hong Kong, and Beijing, for a number of years) issued bans over fireworks and

firecrackers in certain premises of the city. As a substitute, large-scale fireworks have been launched by governments in cities like Hong Kong to offer citizens the experience.
