Nian Gao:The northerners eat Jiao Zi, but southerners like to eat Nian Gao, which translates to "New Year Cake". In Chinese, Gao is a homonym for high. Nian Gao is also called Nian Nian Gao, which is a homonym for "higher each year", symbolizing progress and promotion at work and in daily life and improvement in life year by year.

导语:浪费粮食是可耻的,下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语作文,欢迎阅读与借鉴,谢谢!

假设你是李华,你的美国朋友Jack 来信询问你校开展的“光盘行动”(Clear Your Plate Campaign)的有关事宜。请根据提示给他写一封回信。内容包括:

Dear Jack,

I am writing to tell you something about the activity Clear Your Plate Campaign you referred to in your last letter.

Clear Your Plate Campaign is intended to reduce food waste and help students realize how important it is to save food. Before the campaign, many students, unaware of their wasting of food, bought much more than they could eat and even threw the leftovers without a second thought. But encouragingly, knowing the significance of saving food after the campaign, more and more students are beginning to buy a proper amount of food for their meals. Actually, all of them find this mere action not only save food but money as well. They believe this life style is also environmentally friendly.

Personally, it is of great benefit to join in the campaign and form a good habit of clearing the plate. And it is essential to start with ourselves and start from now. Don’t you think so?

I’m looking forward to having your opinions of the campaign.

Li Hua

【参考译文】

我写信是想告诉你一些关于你上次在信中提到的活动的事情。

清除你的盘子运动的目的是减少食物浪费,并帮助学生认识到它是多么重要,节省粮食。在运动之前,许多学生,不知道他们浪费的食物,买了比他们能吃的更多,甚至扔下剩菜没有思想。但令人欣慰的是,知道节约粮食的重要性的运动后,越来越多的学生开始他们的饭买适量的食物。事实上,他们都发现这种单纯的行动不仅节约粮食,而且节约金钱。他们认为这种生活方式也是环保的。

就个人而言,加入竞选活动并养成清除盘子的好习惯是大有裨益的。我们必须从现在开始,从现在开始。你不这么认为吗?

我期待着有你的意见的运动。

篇5:在校大学生英语自我介绍

I was born in a small village of Shan Dong Province on April 4th, 1968. When I was young, my family was very poor, so I had to work to earn money to help my parents after class when I was in the middle school.

In 1986 I was admitted by University of International Business and Economics (or: UIBE) to pursue a bachelor degree in Economics. My major is accounting in Department of International Business Management. The undergraduate education gave me a wide range of vision and taught me how to cooperate with others. I developed several professional interests in Accounting, Finance, and International Trade.

The following eight-year working experience offered me a good chance to give full play to my creativity, intelligence and diligence. In 1990-1993, I worked as an assistant to funding manager in China National Technical Import and Export Corporation. In 1993-present, I was employed by China Kingdom Import and Export Corporation to be the Manger of Financial and Accounting Division.

I do believe that with my hard early life, solid educational background and ample working experience, I would be an excellent student of you MBA program.

MY PERSONAL ACCOMPLISHMENT: After graduating from UIBE, I was employed as the assistant to the funding manager by China National Technical Import and Export Corporation. After reading a lot of related files, and analyzing the overall funding situation of the corporation, I found that the loan policy was not been put into effect. So we have thousands of millions RMB loan with very high interest rate while a large amount of cash in bank with very low interest rate was idle. I reported this to my supervisor, and then we studied and revised the loan policy. This revision saved the corporation approximately RMB thirty millions yuan. In order to raise the funding effectiveness, after one year’s hard work, I developed the internal banking system within the corporation based on the actual funding supply and need of the different divisions and projects. This internal banking system made full use of the corporation’ funding resources, and due to this, I was highly praised by the president of the corporation.

WHY CHOOSE YOUR MBA PROGRAM? After I have worked in business area for eight years, I feel that I need to continue my education by pursuing a Master degree in business administration. I have practiced my professional expertise in accounting, demonstrated my leadership abilities and perfected my communication skills. But I have yet to become an entrepreneur in my own right, and to fully master the art of modern business. I want to be trained more vigorously in scientific methods of analysis and synthesis. There are a lot of opportunities and challenges in China that I do not yet fell fully confident to seize. My business career has so far benefited mostly the companies that I worked for, but a good business education in your university will probably become a new era for me.

Your university is well known for its excellence in China’s business education. I am sure that, with my extensive business experience, I can be a worthy student of yours. I am anxious to benefit from your seasoned guidance and take advantage of your research facilities.
