去爬山英文作文（最新20篇）

一、英语写作的特点.

The characteristics of formal writing

1.名词化趋势

I do not eat much.-->I am a light eater.

The clock on the desk reminds me of time.-->I put a clock on the desk as a reminder of time.

We once cried, laughed and disappointed.-->There were moments of tears, moments of laughter, and moments of disappointment.

注意:名词化趋势的句子当然还有动词, 目的是尽量把表达句子中心意思的那个词汇用名词表达.符合英文的习惯.

2.无灵主语(区别于被动语态)

我们中文写作中,习惯以人做主语,而英文则相反,习惯以物做主格.

More and more young students studied further in the past two decades.

-->The past two decades witnessed a growing number of young students for further study.

Looking out of the window, you will have a nice view.

-->A glance out of the window offers you a nice view.

注意: 名词化趋势和无灵主语常常是相结合的.

3.被动语态

这一点大家比较熟悉,不详细讲.比如:

Great efforts should be made to…..

What can not be denied is that….

二、句式的写作:

Main features of English sentences:

1.长短句结合

Love is patient and kind. It is never jealous, boastful, proud or rude. It keeps no record of wrong that others do. It always protects, always fruits, always hopes, and always perseveres. Love never fails.

一般来讲,总结性的句子应当使用短句,而说理的句子应用长句.

2.并列复合句

这种句子属于十分难写的句子,也举一个例子:

He who wants to save his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for me will save it.

3.单一复合句

也就是我们常说的各种从句,不再举例.

三、Variety of sentences:

1. ”-ing & -ed” groups

e.g.

(1)Standing by the riverside, the Master sighed,” May time go on and on like this, never ceasing day and night.”

(2)Reviewing what one has learned and gaining new insights, one is fit to be a teacher.

(3)Compared with the tradition, modernity is more dynamic.

2. ”to do” groups

e.g.

To spend too much time in study is sloth; to use them too much for ornaments is affectation; to make any judgment wholly by their rules is the humor of the scholar.

3. adverb

Simply, amazingly, absurdly, broadly, practically and so on

e.g.

Intelligently applied to daily life, modern technology will surely bring benefits to the well-being of the human race.

4.介词短语

In pursuit of, in spite of (注意平时自己的收集)

e.g.

In pursuit of excellence, ever pushing up the limit, life consists in the hope born of despair.

5.主语从句

e.g.

What China needs is not more morals, but more prisons for politicians.

句子的变化还有 It is self-evident(adj) that…….和There be 这样的句子

6.倒装

(1)将一些否定性含义的副词和短语在句首,用倒装会使句子生色不少.

Never before has such a high standard been achieved.

Hardly had he arrived when she started complaining.

(2)为使描绘更加生动,与介词同形的副词可以移动到句首,而把主语放到谓语后面去.

Following the roar, out rushed a tiger from the bushes.

In came a pretty girl he had never seen before.

四、插入语

插入语可以是一个小词,也可以是一个同谓语的形式.

1.先看一个小技巧：(对there be 句型均有效)

There is, recently, a debate amongst educators that……

通俗的讲,在老外眼里,主语与谓语离的越远,句子的档次越高.

2.插入语后面再接上一个定语从句;

Direct experience, a necessary means to recognize the world, which differs from knowledge acquired from books, is a major step to the cognitive world.

再看几个同谓语从句的例子:

1.Television, one of the most pervasive and persuasive technologies, marked by the rapid growth and drastic change, has a profound impact on people’s lives.

2.Courage, a basic quality that every human being is supposed to possess when facing a dilemma, is highly cherished among young people.

3. Convention, generally accepted practice especially with regard to social behavior, has now been increasingly challenged.

平时要多积累这样的句型,使之变成自己的语言.

Tip:对同谓语的解释尽量宽泛一些,有利于句子的拉长.

对于入语加定语从句开头.

就是说:将题目中的中心词拿出来,进行宽泛的解释.

这一方法对很大一部分的考题都是有效的.

以上就是我的一点总结,希望对大家会有所帮助.

小学生爬山作文（一）

今天，我们去爬山旅游，地点是天台赤诚山。我妈妈用摩托车载着我和弟弟一起去。天公作美，太阳在云朵里睡着香香觉，睡的口水也流下来了，变成几点小雨，滴到我们身上。我们感觉有点凉爽，我们一会儿就来到山脚下，开始爬山了。我们心里好高兴啊！飞快地爬上了石台阶，过了一会儿，石台阶一边的山塘里荷花盛开着，荷叶正戴着小水珠向我们招手，荷花向我们点头微笑。好像在说，欢迎大家来这里旅游。我们就往上爬了。我们爬啊爬，遇到一个大姐姐，我们就说一起来比赛，我飞快地爬，她很吃惊我爬得这么快。一会儿我们就爬到了山顶。我们成功 了，我们胜利了！山顶的回声和我们一样高兴啊！也在庆祝我们的胜利。站在山顶上看梁妃塔，很壮观。啊，如果不站在塔下，就不可能看到塔的高大和壮观以及山上的美景，我好想在山时候多呆一下，只是时间不多了，只能和宝塔说再见了。

我们就慢慢下山去了，看着来来往往的人到这里看风景，我们觉得今天很开心。

星期日下午，我和爸爸去爬山，路上经过一座庙 ，就开始爬山了，一路上我们看到了好多小花小草 ，还有大树，树叶一片片地掉下来了。我摘了黄黄的菊花。我们走了一段路后，爸爸摘了好多野韭菜，看到了一座凉亭，我立刻跑过去休息，吃了一点东西。然后我们又开始向山顶走去。

走了一段路后我们又发现了一座凉亭，又休息一会，又继续走路，快到山顶的时候，我看到了好多小鸟从树丛好象在欢迎我们的到来，又看到一只红黑相间的蝴蝶，真漂亮啊！走啊走，我们终于到山顶了，山顶上我们发现了一种不知名的花，连爸爸都不知道，这花粉红色的叶子，很象五角星，花开的颜色是紫色的，没开的时候是绿色的，我给它起了个名字 叫仙人花，因为它像一个人。我们在山顶休息一会就下山了。

在下山的路上我们经过一个健身地方，我去那玩了单杠，还玩了骑自行车……爸爸给我拍照，我给爸爸拍照后我们就回家了。今天我虽然很累但吃到了美味的野韭炒鸡蛋，心里真高兴，我打算每个星期都要去爬山。

小学生爬山作文（三）

我喜欢登山，喜欢那种“会当临绝顶，一览众山小”的感觉。但我不喜欢坐缆车，我喜欢自己一步一步地攀上山顶，我享受攀登的乐趣。

站在山脚下，那高峻巍峨的山峰总给我无形的压力。我享受这种有压力的感觉，有压力就会有动力。

登山的旅途开始了，我不会流连路边的花花草草，因为我知道山顶会有更美丽的风景。我不会坐下来休息，因为我知道那只会增长我的惰性。我不会寻找登山的捷径，因为我知道登山路没有捷径，所谓的捷径不过是投机取巧罢了。我会望着那遥远的山顶暗暗加快脚下的步伐，我会看着脚下的山路给自己加油鼓劲。我享受这种大汗淋漓的滋味，它让我感受到我所付出的努力。我累着并快乐着。

我登上山顶了，感受着习习而来的风儿，有一种说不出的畅快。看着自己所走过的蜿蜿蜒蜒山路，从心底一股成就感油然而生。踩着自己脚下的地皮，竟有一种把全世界踩在脚下的自豪感。我欢呼我呐喊我为自己喝彩，回声在山谷里飘荡，这或许是群山对我的祝福吧！作文

仰起头，云朵似乎也排成了笑脸在为我庆贺。

看着茫茫的天空，层层的山峦，我似乎看到还有跟高的山峰，它在等着我的挑战。这并不是一个终点而是另一个起点。

我享受登山的感觉，孜孜不倦，生生不息。

今天是星期六，天空虽然有点阴沉沉的，但是并没有下雨，而且还有点微微的风。爸爸说好久都没去爬山了，要带我去爬栲栳山。我高兴极了，等妈妈给我们准备完了水和一些水果零食后就迫不及待地出发了。

大概过了二十多分钟，我们的车终于开到了山脚下。

沿着一条弯弯曲曲的小路，我们踏上了“旅途”。走着走着，爸爸找到了两根可以当拐杖的竹子。我和爸爸拿着“拐杖”大步向前走。我们边走边欣赏着山路两旁美丽的风景，却在路边看见了好多垃圾。我感到很难过，爸爸安慰我说：“保护环境要从自己做起，只要我们自己做好了，也会慢慢影响我们身边的人。”我立刻明白了，拿出了随身带着的垃圾袋，和爸爸一边走，一边捡起了扔在地上的垃圾，做起了“环保小卫士”。

我费了九牛二虎之力，终于爬到了半山腰，我发现这边的温度比山脚要低，冻得我瑟瑟发抖。但奇怪的是虽然已是初冬，山路两旁仍然绿树成林，一片片落叶像一只只美丽的蝴蝶，翩翩起舞。忽然，我听见了小溪流水的声音，哗啦啦，哗啦啦，像一首美妙的乐曲，非常悦耳动听。我和爸爸就在小溪旁边的一块大石头上坐了下来，喝了点水，吃了些零食。

我们就这样，走走停停地来到了山顶。山顶的空气异常新鲜，我连续吸了好几口，仿佛注入了满满的能量，爬山时的疲劳一扫而空。

在下山的时候，我们路过了一片竹林，一棵棵翠绿的竹子整齐地排着队，让我流连忘返。爸爸说，“上山容易下山难”。果然，我有好几次都差点滑倒，都是爸爸扶住了我。

不知不觉中，我们就到了山下，我已经气喘吁吁，汗流浃背了。虽然稍微有些累，但我希望下次还能和爸爸一起来这里爬山。

Everyone will have some unforgettable memories. These big and small

memories are like the shining stars in my memory, and one of them is the first

time I read science books.

It was the second day of the summer vacation for Daban. It was sunny and a

little sultry in the morning. My father said to me happily, "son, today my

father will take you to climb the mountain and enjoy the beautiful scenery on

the top of the mountain." I readily agreed. So we came to the famous Dayang

mountain in Dongzhu.

My father and I went to the foot of the mountain, looked up, and could not

see the top of Dayang mountain. My father said, "climb to the top of the

mountain and you can enjoy the most beautiful scenery in the world." I look

forward to my father.

At the beginning of climbing, I was full of energy and very relaxed. But

when I climbed to the middle of the mountain, my body became heavier and heavier

like lead. Dad saw me like this, so we rested for a while, and continued to

climb up. After a long time, I saw that I was exhausted when I was near the top

of the mountain. I begged dad to take me down the mountain. Dad encouraged me:

"hold on a little longer, and soon I will be at the top of the mountain Well,

the ancients said, "you will be at the top of the mountain and see all the small

mountains." dont you want to experience this feeling? " I gasped and said, "Dad,

I really cant climb. I cant move my legs anymore. I want to go back..." Dad

helplessly took me down the mountain.

At that time, I didnt stick to it. Unfortunately, I missed the beautiful

scenery at the top of the mountain. Ive learned that if I do anything, work hard

and stick to it to the end, there will be gains. Study is also, persist in the

end will achieve good results.

太阳还没有从天际升起，我早早的起床准备我的第一次登山，我高兴的在心里想着我第一个起来，我是赢家，可是当我悄悄的走到父母的房间时，我失望了，我的爸妈早已整装待发了，而我又变成了最后一个起床的人。 The sun has not risen from the sky.Winners, when I quietly walked to my parents room, I was disappointed. My parents had already pretended to be out, and I became the last person to get up.

我好像是一个失败者，低着头洗完了脸，刷完了牙，穿上了衣服准备上山，刚才的失落并不代表什么，这次登上山顶才是我的目标，在家想着登山算什么，今儿一看惊呆了，高高的大山屹立在我的身旁，而我准备要征服这雄伟的山，这可能吗?我退了几步，爸爸笑了一声说：“不敢了，在家谁跟我们说的，不就上个山吗!有什么大不了的!”

我对爸爸说：“有……有什么不敢的，我……我敢，只不过没准备好。”我的背后此时以完全湿透，我很清楚我不是怕登山而是我懒，在家只是吹嘘呢!

“望山跑死马”这句话在今天验证了，爬啊爬啊，终于我们征服了半壁山脉，我的四肢早也已经在了，我的屁股和脚好像串通好的，都不运作了，我一屁股坐在台阶上，此时我的屁股和脚解放了，而我也像是泡了个澡似的，享受着。

忽然，我的前边传来了即熟悉有害怕的一句话：“快走啊，怎么认输了?”

唉，为了顾及我的面子，我不得不让我的脚“受累”又走了几百个台阶，这时我们离山顶只差一步之遥，可我再也走不了了，死死的坐在台阶上，也顾不得什么面子了，管他说什么，爸爸说：“休息一会吧，我也走不动了!

”之后我才知道我的爸爸是为了让我有休息的空间所以才这样说的，10分钟后我们向山顶“进军”登上山顶遥望四周，美丽之处数不胜数，遥看松花江壮丽无比，仰头一瞧仿佛和蓝天零距离接触，躺下来看着蓝天听着鸟叫，顿时感觉之前的受累是值得的。

登山让我从此变得不再懒惰，也让我体验了登山的好与坏。

今年一月时，爸爸每个礼拜日都会带我去观音山的人行步道爬山，那时是我爬得最累的时候，但却也是我最快乐的一天，回想到那几个礼拜我就好怀念观音山山顶的情景。

当时，记得爸爸常在凌晨四点时就叫我起床陪他去爬山，我起床时还蛮惊讶的，因为妈妈也已经起来了，那时我才起来一下子跟爸爸说”不要”就躺下了。过不久，爸爸就用那吵到不行的”天籁”一直说：”詹博丞~起来，现在也才三点，竞争好激烈，你怎幺还在”睡”。”，”睡”这个字特别大声，我不得不投降了，只得陪爸爸爬山，到达目的地时，才五点多。在爬山的途中，我看到了许多清澈的溪流和美丽的山景，直到看见凉亭我们才坐在那边休息。

休息的时候，我觉得观音山简直就是世外桃源，因为这里的山景很美，就像一幅壁画，直到登上山顶才看到太阳升起，清晨的太阳特别让人精神为之一振，所以爸爸就拿出相机想把眼前这片美景拍下来，不过因为当时太亮，所以照得不是很清楚，稍稍令人感到遗憾呢!

为了要保护观音山，我决定下次去时，只要看到有人乱丢垃圾，就会叫他捡起来，因为那里的美景让我回味无穷、流连忘返，我也衷心希望每位来这里的游客都能好好爱护我们的大自然环境，让后代的子孙也能有机会看见这片美景。

听说去春游爬山，为此，我们都很高兴。我们盼星星盼月亮，终于盼到了这一天，早上我们在学校集合，大约在7点多我们上车出发，车缓缓启动了，一路上我们欢声笑语和导游小…………

大年初六我们一家到农村老家给奶奶拜年。那里没有小朋友玩，乡下的小孩又不认识，又没电脑玩。正当我万般无聊的时候星星和豆豆终于来了。又加上那天有很多亲戚都来给奶奶祝寿，很多亲戚的小孩或孙子儿子也来了。

下午的时候，姐姐带我和星星、豆豆去爬山。我一马当先带领他们到了山脚，那时我们还不知道上去的路，于是他们决定委派我探路，我就带着他们找到了一条不平的崎岖小路，我们沿着这条小路慢慢的往上爬，大家都小心翼翼地跟在我身后。不知谁说了一句：“这么深的草，会不会有蛇啊!”我说：“蛇不会咬领头的，只会咬中间的，我把蛇从冬眠中吵醒，当它反应过来的时候我早走过去了，只会咬到后面的人。”吓得星星赶紧的跑到我前面来。好不容易爬到半山腰，只见山上长满了各种各样的树：有樟树啦，有松树啦，还有杉树啦……最可喜的是，我们还发现了一片苍翠的竹林，在冬日的阳光照耀下，依然还是那么的苍翠可爱，枝条在微风的吹拂下翩翩起舞，像个少女在舒展修长的手臂，竹叶发出沙沙的响声仿佛在吟唱一首低沉的歌曲。以前听说有句俗话叫“上山容易下山难”真是不假。本来我是走在第一个的，因为下山路太陡了，我渐渐的落后了，由第一个变成了最后一个。我真搞不懂星星怎么上来的时候那么慢，下去的时候那么快。没想到他发现了我在后面，说：“你不是很能走吗?怎么到最后面了?”我说：“你只管好你自己就行了，不要管我。”就这样，我们互相扶持着一步一步走到了山下。

来到山下，我满头大汗，就像一根泡湿了的面条一样，软绵绵的。这比在城里爬十层楼还累啊!真是一次难得的户外运动啊!

梧桐游记入了秋的深圳，空气中依旧弥漫着沁人心脾的芬芳，景色依旧那么宜人。被工作…………这一天，我们一行8人向梧桐山进发，一路上我们都在讨论着有关爬山的技巧，有的说走…………

看书，写作等，但是，没有那种心情，是什么也看不进的，就算看下去，也没有多大的效果，这时，我总想出去爬爬山。“会当凌绝顶，一览众山小”，如果达到此种境界，心情…………

早上，伴着那充满活力朝阳，我开始了我的登山之旅。爬山还真是个体力活儿呢，特别是爬门头沟这种没有开发，保持着它那纯正天然原貌的山，山上没有人…………

今天上午思品课上，董老师为了培养我们班的合作精神，特地带我们去爬奈古山。

我们来到山下，啊我望着陡峭的山路，心里“怦怦”地直跳！可嘴里小声地说：“怕什么！男子汉大丈夫。”说到做到，不放空炮。说到这儿，我向山顶冲去……

一路上十分艰苦，可这没磨灭同学们的决心，个个都像能吃苦的士兵，不停地往上爬，撑着胖乎乎的身子，满头大汗，满脸通红，可是依然向上爬着。我和栾宇轩在一个陡坡，我先爬了上去，转过来一手拉了栾宇轩，哎哟！怎么这么重，幸好我抓住了一根树根，才爬山了上来。

到了山顶，老师说：“你们都跑在前面，只有叶凌威一群个人在帮助女生。我们是一个集体，要互帮互助！”

这次爬山，使我知道了什么事都得想到集体，更何况我是班长！

Dear Mother,

How are you these days? How is your work going?

Mom, I know that I have done a lot of sorry for you since I was a child, but

you never beat me and scolded me, instead, you reasoned with me.

Once, you and dad took me to the store to buy clothes, the lamplight shine,

there there are many beautiful clothes, all of a sudden I didnt concern about

the small store in a saw a white dress, the dress with a picture of a man

holding a little girl, little girl holding a womans picture, are there beside

the picture of a bunch of pink small butterfly in dance. I wanted the dress so

badly that I ran to you and said, "Mommy, mommy, do you see that white dress? I

want that dress!" You go over and look at the price tag. A: wow! This dress

costs a thousand dollars! You shook your head. I see you dont buy for me, use

"cry", while crying also on the ground roll. I had no choice but to buy the

dress.

Mother I want to say to you: "Sorry!" I have acted in love with you many

times since I was a child, but you always bought me what I wanted with a smile.

I know that you have worked hard for this money. So, here, I say to you:

"Sorry!"

Mom, I know how much you have given to our family over the years. Behind your

success are always a lot of difficulties around you, but you are not afraid of

difficulties, you overcome the difficulties. Mom, I hope you will pay more

attention to your health in the future!

Finally, I wish my mother a long life and a successful job!

Your child:

今天和朋友去登泸山了，好高，数不清的石梯在茂密的丛林中盘山而上，直至山顶。听说泸山是西昌有名的国家级风景区，是很多人尤其是初到这里的外地人最神往的旅游景区之一，作为外地人之一我当然也想去看看。

带着些许的神秘感我们迎着朝阳出发了，踩着石梯在茂密的丛林中传山而上，心里还真有几分兴奋，现在想来也许是内心深处对山顶的神秘渴望起了作用吧！就这样走走歇歇终于爬上了山顶！然而好不容易踏在脚下的山顶却什么都没有，古人会当凌绝顶，还能一览众山小，可我们虽脚踏山顶，视线却被乱木丛档得严严实实，啥也看不到啊。

其实我突然间想到人这一辈子啊，又何尝不像这爬山，为了那个无法预知的人生顶峰，拼命的去爬，花掉自己一生的时光，只有到顶的时候方能知晓峰顶到底风光何如，然而很少有人真正如愿，因为回首人生时他们发现比起自己花掉的时光和因此所失去的一切，眼前自己所得到的实在是太微不足道了！可人生只有一次啊！就像爬山时因一心向着山顶而忽略了山道上太多客观的景致一样，然而爬山尚可重来，可人生呢？

下山的时候我看到又有很多人在源源不断的往上爬，自己已经酥软的双腿让我有一种想阻止他们继续往上爬的冲动，但我终于还是没有这样做，因为我想到了自己往上爬时的心理：不亲自上去看看心里是不会踏实的！人生也是这样，那些老去的已经爬到人生顶峰的并且领略了顶峰风景的前辈们不是没告诉过我们应该珍惜人生的过程，可是不去亲自领略一番，谁又听得进去呢？于是爬山的人依旧在爬，尽管山顶一片荒芜；红尘中的人们依旧脚步匆匆，就算人生之巅一无所有！

不过这样也好，名山，如果没人去爬，那便会荒芜；人生，如果无生命去践行，其存在便是一种多余！也许这世间的一切本来就是这样也说不定啊！

[关于爬山的人生作文

8月9日，我们来到固阳爬这里小有名气的大仙山，听说大仙山非常陡峭，而且没有那些扶栏，但我和爸爸要征服它。

我们在车里远远的就看见了那些天然大石头垒成的大仙山。在山中还有几座庙，其中最陡峭的山是主山，在主山的后面还有许多山峰，连绵不断的连接下去。

我们挑战的第一座山，也就是最不屈服的主峰。

我和爸爸在做好准备后，就要去征服它了。我们在一点一点向上爬，刚爬到半山腰，被人们踩出的“小路”就终止了。我知道了，没有几个人上过山顶，都上到半山腰就退却了，这更激起了我要爬上山顶的_。虽然没有“路”了，但是请你记住：在你人生中有许多路需要你去开辟，需要你去创造。我开始沿着自己开辟的第一条路前进，但是所有路都是坎坷

的，需要你去把征服，这条“路”上的石头很多，也很光滑，这些石头可不会留情，我差点从350米左右的高空掉下，那是如果不是一个小石头卡住了我的脚，我就可能掉下去了。有时一个东西，一件事、一次经历，就是一把双刃剑，有伤害你的一面，也有保护你的一面。但只没有摧毁我爬上山顶的_。我最终凭借勇气和很好的体力爬上了山顶。

但是我们还要下山，虽然有“路”了，但俗话说：“上山容易，下山难。”我们又开始了下山的“旅程”。

Christmas Day falls on the twenty-fifth of December.It is a very happy day

for many boys and girls .Before the term ends in some schools ,the children act

a nativity or “birth” play,showing how Jesus was born in a stable.

On the twenty-fourth of December,all children are very excited.Usually they

are sent to bed early so that their parents can get the presents ready.The

younger children think that Father Christmas will come down the chimney or

fireplace ,so they hang up a sock for him to put presents in.The greedy ones

even hang up a pillow-case or a sack to try to get more presents.Later that

night,Father or Mother will put presents in the sock,and leave others at the

side of the bed.

On Christmas morning,the children wake up very early.Some even turn on the

light at two oclock,and most of them are awake by six oclock although it is

not light in England for another hour or two at this time of the year.Children

look for their presents,and the young ones play while the dinner is prepared.At

about one oclock in the afternoon,the Christmas dinner is brought in.The turkey

or chicken is quickly eaten.Children search in their Christmas pudding for new

coins which are hidden in it.The rest of the day is full of games and eating

until the happiest of all Christmas hollidays comes to an end.

My father, Winston Churchill, began his love affair with painting in his 40s, amid disastrous circumstances. As First Lord of the Admiralty in 1915, he was deeply involved in a campaign in the Dardanelles that could have shortened the course of a bloody world war. But when the mission failed, with great loss of life, Churchill paid the price, both publicly and privately. He was removed from the admiralty and effectively sidelined.

Overwhelmed by the catastrophe — “I thought he would die of grief,” said his wife, Clementine —he retired with his family to Hoe Farm, a country retreat in Surrey. There, as Churchill later recalled, “The muse of painting came to my rescue!”

Wandering in the garden one day, he chanced upon his sister-in-law sketching with watercolors. He watched her for a few minutes, then borrowed her brush and tried his hand. The muse had cast her spell!

Churchill soon decided to experiment with oils. Delighted with this distraction from his dark broodings, Clementine rushed off to buy whatever paints she could find.

For Churchill, however, the next step seemed difficult as he contemplated with unaccustomed nervousness the blameless whiteness of a new canvas. He started with the sky and later described how “very gingerly I mixed a little blue paint on the palette, and then with infinite precaution made a mark about as big as a bean upon the affronted snow-white shield. At that moment the sound of a motor car was heard in the drive. From this chariot stepped the gifted wife of Sir John Lavery .”

“ ‘Painting!’ she declared. ‘But what are you hesitating about? Let me have the brush — the big one.’ Splash into the turpentine, wallop into the blue and the white, frantic flourish on the palette, and then several fierce strokes and slashes of blue on the absolutely cowering canvas.”

At that time, John Lavery— a Churchill neighbor and celebrated painter— was tutoring Churchill in his art. Later, Lavery said of his unusual pupil: “Had he chosen painting instead of statesmanship, I believe he would have been a great master with the brush.”

In painting, Churchill had discovered a companion with whom he was to walk for the greater part of the years that remained to him. After the war, painting would offer deep solace when, in 1921, the death of the mother was followed two months later by the loss of his and Clementine’s beloved three-year-old daughter, Marigold. Battered by grief, Winston took refuge at the home of friends in Scotland, finding comfort in his painting. He wrote to Clementine: “I went out and painted a beautiful river in the afternoon light with crimson and golden hills in the background. Alas I keep feeling the hurt of the Duckadilly (Marigold’s pet name).”

Historians have called the decade after 1929, when the Conservative government fell and Winston was out of office, his wilderness years. Politically he may have been wandering in barren places, a lonely fighter trying to awaken Britain to the menace of Hitler, but artistically that wilderness bore abundant fruit. During these years he often painted in the South of France. Of the 500-odd canvases extant, roughly 250 date from 1930 to 1939.

Painting remained a joy to Churchill to the end of his life. “Happy are the painters,” he had written in his book Painting as a Pastime, “ for they shall not be lonely. Light and color, peace and hope, will keep them company to the end of the day.” And so it was for my father.

我的父亲，温斯顿·丘吉尔，在他四十多岁时开始迷恋上绘画，当时环境异常恶劣。那是在1915年，任海军大臣的他，积极投身于在达达尼尔海峡的一场战役中，这场战役本可以缩短那段血雨腥风的世界大战。但由于遭受失败，伤亡惨重，丘吉尔于公于私都付出了代价。他被从海军部调离且实则坐起了冷板凳。

在灾难的折磨下——他的妻子克莱门廷说：“我想他会痛苦而死，”——他携家带口来到萨利郡的一处乡间静居霍·华姆。在那儿，丘吉尔后来回忆道，“是绘画中的冥思拯救了我！”

一天他在花园散步时，偶然看到他的弟媳在用水彩作画。他观察了几分钟，然后向她借了画笔并一试身手。他的专注仿佛给他施了魔法！

丘吉尔很快就决定试试去画油画。看到他从阴暗的忧郁思中解脱出来，克莱门廷非常开心，她赶忙去买所有能买到的颜料。

然而，迈出下一步似乎有些困难，因为丘吉尔看到一块新画布的洁白无暇时感到无所适从和为难。他先从天空画起，后来他描述如何“非常谨慎地在调色板上加入一点儿蓝色调，然后以万分的小心，在这块被蓄意冒犯的雪白的防护板上点上豌豆大的一笔。这时，传来一阵驾驶机动车的马达声。约翰·拉威利先生才华出众的太太从这辆车中姗然而下。

“‘在画画呀！’她高声说着。‘可你还在犹豫什么呢？给我那支笔——那支头号的。’只见松油飞溅，她在蓝白颜料间挥毫泼墨，在调色板上龙飞凤舞，接着在吓得发皱的油画布上用力东戳西捣几下蓝色。”

那时，约翰·拉威利——丘吉尔的邻居，也是一位有名的画家—正教丘吉尔学画。后来提及他的这位特殊的学生，拉威利说：“倘若他选择绘画而不是从政，我相信他会是位绘画大师的。”

在绘画中，丘吉尔找到了能陪他度过余生大部分时光的知已。战后，在1921年，母亲刚去世两个月，他和克莱门廷就失去了他们深爱着的三岁女儿玛丽戈尔德，这时作画给了他一些安慰。在痛苦的打击下，温斯顿来到苏格兰朋友们的家中以求得安慰，用绘画来解脱自己。他在给克莱门廷的信中说：“我出外画了一条夕阳下美丽的溪流，背后映衬着晚霞的群山。唉，达克迪莉（玛丽戈尔德的昵称）使我的苦痛总是挥之不去。

史学家把1929年后的十年，也就是保守党政府垮台而温斯顿下台的时间，称为他的荒凉岁月。政治上，他一直在举步维艰的处境中徘徊，是一个孤独的勇士在努力唤起受到希特勒威胁的国人，但在艺术上他在那荒凉岁月却硕果累累。这些年他经常在法国南部作画。在现存的500多张油画中，大约250张是1930至1939年间的作品。

绘画给丘吉尔带来了乐趣直到他的人生尽头。在他所著的《画中的消遣》里说：“画家其乐融融，因为他们不会孤独。光与色，和平与希望，会始终伴随他们。”我父亲就是这样一个人。

国庆长假期间，我们一家去爬山。古人有“秋登”，我们也学一回古人，趁着金秋时分，登高望远。

我们这次爬的是在家附近的杨府山，所以大家只带了水壶。整理完毕，我们就启程了。

秋风习习，我们上山沿途，一边观赏风景，一边登高，好舒服呀！俗话说：“秋风扫落叶”，还真的是这样。只见红红的树叶在风中飘扬，悠悠荡荡地落下，落在绿草丛中，轻轻覆盖着草丛；树叶落在石阶上，我们踩在上面，沙沙作响；落在我们身上，就像妈妈轻轻的抚摩。这就是秋天的美：安静、温柔。石阶两旁长着一些狗尾草，我随手摘一些，用它来挠自己痒痒，真是好玩！

这样一路爬山，一路赏玩，也不觉得累了。很快，我们就到了山顶。我摸了摸后背，全湿了。“为什么我爬山时一点感觉也没有呢？”我不禁自言自语道。这时，身体向我发出了“警报”：因为一直往上攀登，小腿的肌肉开始发涨；拎水壶的手发酸，额头两道汗挂下来。我觉得好累啊！可是，爬山还没结束呢！

正所谓：上山容易下山难。接下来我们要下山了。看着陡峭的石阶，我小腿绷紧了，生怕一踩空摔下来。于是，我每一步都走得小心翼翼，越是这样，小腿越痛。妈妈让我放轻松，可是看着陡峭的下山路，我哪敢放轻松啊！经过很长一段时间，终于走下山，我长吁一口气，身体终于可以休息一下了。

看来，我以后还要多爬爬山，爬多了就不会觉得累了。

昨天下午，我们就商量好了，明天去白岩坪爬山。白岩坪可是椒江区最高的一座山，明天，我们就要去挑战它。

到了山脚下，我往上一看，哇，好高的一座山啊！好陡峭的山路啊！那山路因为年久失修，已经是似路非路了。我顿时吓得腿都软了。找了一块石头，我休息了好一会儿，才鼓起勇气决定走上去。

慢慢地，我越来越放松了。终于，我忘掉了恐惧，一步一步向山顶爬去。路边，我看见了美丽的杜鹃花。妈妈告诉我：“这时候的杜鹃花，开得已经算很早了。”我的心还在花丛里，就听见上面的伙伴在喊：“快点，这样要什么时候才能爬上山顶啊！”我只好依依不舍地和杜鹃花告别。才爬到一半，我就已经饿得前胸贴后背了。幸好有准备小零食，否则，在这崎岖的山路上，我就要饿死了。

终于爬到山顶了，我已累得跌坐在一块大石头上，一动也不想动了。但一听到要去“寻宝”，我就一下子变得精神了，就好像已经吃饱了一样。我们找啊找啊，终于找到了：有漂亮花纹的陶罐，还有刻着精致花纹的木板。我捧着千辛万苦找来的“宝物”，爱不释手。

终于开饭了，早就闻到了香喷喷的味道，我一看，原来是我最爱的“方便面大餐”。我不管三七二十一，抓起筷子夹了一大口就急忙往嘴里送。只听“啊……”的一声，烫死我了，真是心急吃不了热豆腐呀！

要下山了，都说“上山容易下山难”，可我就偏偏不信，当我崴了两次脚，小腿抖得跟弹棉花一样时，我就不得不承认这句话是真的了。于是，我小心翼翼地走下去，终于又回到了山脚下。

一天的爬山之旅就这样结束了，虽然很累，但是很开心，我一定会回来的！

每个人，都会有些难忘的回忆。这些大大小小的回忆，就像留在我记忆里的一颗颗闪亮的小星星，而其中夺目的一颗还数我第一次看科学书。

那是大班放暑假的第二天，上午天气晴朗，有点闷热。爸爸兴高采烈地对我说：“儿子，今天老爸带你去爬山，欣赏美丽的山顶风景。”我欣然答应。于是我们来到了东渚著名的大阳山。

我和爸爸来到山脚下，抬起头，望着看不到山顶的大阳山，爸爸说：“爬到山顶上就可以欣赏到世界上最美的风景。”我期待的看着爸爸。

刚开始爬，我力气满满，非常轻松，可爬到半山腰时，我的身体像灌了铅似的越来越沉重，爸爸看到我这样，于是我们休息了一会儿，又继续向上爬，爬了很久，眼看快到山顶时，我已经精疲力尽，我恳求爸爸带我下山，爸爸鼓励我：“再坚持一下，很快就到山顶了，古人云‘会当临绝顶，一览众山小’你不想体验一下这种感受吗？”我气喘吁吁的说：“爸爸，我真的爬不动了，腿已经挪不开了，我想回去了……”爸爸无奈的带我下山了。

那一次我没能坚持到底，很遗憾，错过了山顶的美丽风景。我懂得了，做任何事，付出努力，并且坚持到底，会有收获。学习也是，坚持到底就会取得好成绩。

寒假的一天，趁着空闲，我和爸爸一起去面爬山。

我和爸爸爬的山叫做东谷湖。一进入景点，映入眼帘的是一个巨大的湖泊。水被阳光照射着，显得波光粼粼。水又被秋风吹动着，泛起一圈圈波纹，波纹碰到岸边的石壁，又弹了回来。

开始爬山啦!我们迈着大步，奋力地向峰顶爬去。我一会儿两格两格地往上跨，一会儿小跑着向前进……一路上，郁郁葱葱的树林，并看不出黄了多少。有时，几缕阳光透过树枝，照在身上，使人暖洋洋的，无比舒服;有时，密密麻麻的树枝把阳光遮得无影无踪，一阵寒风吹来，阴森森的，怪吓人的……

不一会儿，我们爬到了山顶。这时，树木好像是位魔术师，向我们变了个“魔术”，刚才还郁郁葱葱的树林一下子变黄了!一枚枚绿加黄的叶子像一只只彩色的、美丽的蝴蝶，从“蝴蝶树”上落下来，“飞”啊“飞”啊，落在了地上，静静地“看”老人们打太极，“听”中年人谈论各式各样的事，“看”小朋友们尽情的嬉戏玩耍……树上不但叶子黄了，还结出了五颜六色的、不知名的果实呢!有红色的，有黄色的，有白色的，还有绿色的……它们像一张张可爱的脸蛋，对着人们笑啊笑啊……

在山顶上游览了一遍，我们便下山了。下山时，一阵阵秋风迎面扑来，吹在身上，使人心旷神怡，十分惬意。下山十分轻松，不一会儿我们便有回到湖边，开开心心地回家了。

寒假的这次爬山让我体验到了一览众山小的感觉。

Today after dinner, the adults were tired, and I volunteered to say, "Mom, Ill do the housework today." Mom is very happy. I put the dishes from the water room, see the rest of the noodles, I said: "Mom, I put the noodles refrigerator?" my mother told me to put cold noodles. And then I began to wash the dishes.

Mother in the side said: "put some detergent, can go to oil, wash clean, and can also sterilize." I quickly washed the bowl, and then I rubbed the table and collected the table. Finally, I also swept the ground clean.

I was tired of doing these housework, I was sweating, but I was happy, mom said I grew up.

Nowadays the newspaper possesses considerable value Everybody should read

it. It supplies us with a variety of news every day. It tells us the political

situation of the world. If we form the habit of reading the newspaper， we shall

get enough knowledge to cope with our circumstances.

现今报纸拥有极大的价值，人人都就应看它。它每一天带给我们各种类类的消息。它告诉我们世界政治局势。如果我们养成看报的习惯，我们就能得到足够的知识来因应我们的环境。学生虽然每一天须做功课，但他们至少就应匀出一两个小时来看报。那么，他们不但能增加知识而且也能赶上时代。总而言之，看报对学生很有益处。

星期天我和爸爸回老家看望爷爷、奶奶。我们家后面有一座青葱翠绿的大山，每次回到老家我都会坐在我们家的阳台上眺望那座山。登上这座山是我梦寐以求的事。

今天爸爸决定带我去爬那座山。开始我像小兔子一样跑得很快。不到一会我就气喘吁吁，上气不接下气了。“爸爸，你背我吧!我跑不动了。”我气喘吁吁地说。

爸爸两眼注视着我，严厉地说：“你说呢?”

“我还是自己爬吧!”我低下头说。

“好样的，这才是我的好儿子，加油吧!我们一起爬到山顶。”爸爸弯下腰亲切地抚摸着我的头说，“我相信你一定能登上山顶!”

我望着爸爸坚定的眼神说：“我一定会加油的!”

在爸爸的鼓励和帮助下，我终于顺利地登上了山顶。我们站在山顶上眺望，远处一片青葱翠绿的大树，一片绿油油的麦田，万紫千红的花朵，勤劳的小蜜蜂在花丛中飞舞，往远看去，我还能看到我们家的小房子呢!

爸爸拍拍我的肩膀，意味深长地说：“儿子，我希望你以后是远处的大树，希望你是勤劳的小蜜蜂，希望你是万紫千红的花朵，希望你是一个真正的男子汉。”

通过这次爬山，我领悟到爸爸对我的希望和爱，我懂得了世上无难事，只怕有心人，做任何事情都不要半途而废，坚持到底一定能够成功的。
