The weather of these days is really bad. It’s foggy and there is haze in the air. So, we can’t see the things very far. Every morning, when I pull back the curtain, I only can see the building dozens miles away. When I go to school, I must be very careful when I go across the street. Besides, the air is dirty because of the haze. I even feel hard to breathe. My mother tells me to wear a respirator. I do as she tells. Because of the bad weather, car accidents happen more frequently. I hope drivers can drive more carefully and keep safe.

For the first time in everyones experience! For example: the first time to

ride a bicycle, write a book, play a computer for the first time, keep a dog for

the first time, etc! And my first time is climbing!

On a sunny holiday, our family unanimously decided to take exercise -

climbing Maanshan! Maanshan ecological park is located in the south of Yangwu

village, Daling mountain. The main peak is 329.2 meters above sea level. It is

divided into two small peaks at the front and back. It is named Maanshan because

of its shape similar to Maanshan. It used to be a quarry. All the stones mined

were transported to all parts of the city as building materials, bringing

considerable economic benefits to the local area and seriously damaging the

ecological environment. In order to build a civilized, harmonious and ecological

home, the village committee decided to close the quarry and invest 5 million

yuan to build it into an ecological park. Now there are Jinling, Qixingling,

Jiti stone, Qilin mountain and other scenic spots. When I came to the foot of

Maanshan, I stared at the top of Maanshan stupidly. In my mind, I thought of the

complacent expression of climbing to the mountain. After that, I cant wait to

follow the route to the top of the mountain!

At first, I was a living tiger, just like a hungry tiger, flying to the top

of the mountain! The road is getting steeper and steeper, and the fork road runs

across. Its half the way to the top of the mountain. After a long time, the

physical strength is naturally consumed and the knowledge is not much. Im

sweating!! Seeing thousands of houses, cars and pedestrians under my feet, I

secretly encouraged myself: there is still a little way to go, stick to it, and

soon climb to the top of the mountain, dont be discouraged, learn to stick to it

on this road! Only persistence can make people succeed! Time flows silently on

me. I climb to the top of the mountain. I am ecstatic and rush forward in one

breath. Finally climbed to the top of the mountain! Ah! The scenery at the top

of the mountain is so intoxicating and impressive!

As if everything under my feet is my world! The whole village can be seen

clearly. I learned a truth from it, that is: in life, whether it is laid-off, or

encountered difficulties, or be fired and so on. Dont be discouraged. As a human

being, we should learn not to be discouraged in the face of difficulties. In all

kinds of tests of life, just like climbing a mountain, we cant give up halfway,

as long as we stick to it, we will succeed!

篇5:放松英语作文初中

全文共 1100 字

What does it mean to relax?Despite hearing this term thousands of times

during the course of our lives, very few people have deeply considered what it’s

really about.

When you ask people (which I have done many times) what it means to relax,

most will answer in a way that suggests that relaxing is something you plan to

do lateryou do it on vacation, in a hammock, when you retire, or when you get

everything else done. This implies, of course, that most other times should be

spent nervous, agitated, rushed, and frenzied. Very few actually come out and

say so, but this is the obvious implication.Could this explain why so many of us

operate as if life were one great big emergency?

It is useful to think of relaxation as a quality of heart that you can

access on a regular basis rather than something reserved for some later time.

You can relax now. It’s helpful to remember that relaxed people can still be

superachievers and, in fact, that relaxation and creativity go hand in hand.When

I’m feeling uptight, for example, I don’t even try to write. But when I feel

relaxed, my writing flows quickly and easily.

As is known to all food is a priority for the common people. Recently

however reports about food problems have often been seen in the newspapers

showing that people have always been concerned about what they eat every day.

The reason for this problem is that some of the food producers are too fond of

making money leading to the result that they use whatever will make the food

look good or taste better without considering the bad consequences. This is not

normal because people just cannot live without eating anything.

So we should take all the measures necessary to forbid the food producers

to make food that is not safe enough. Laws should be strengthened and the

government should have more control over these producers. Only when people are

no longer worried about whether their food is safe or not can they enjoy a

better life.

篇10:关于成功的因素的英语

全文共 1657 字

As we all known, the man who wants to be success should have a good

disposition. As the saying goes, “disposition decide to everything.” I remember

a famous motto: there are no two identical people in the world, but the success

people are similar in many ways. Exactly, good disposition is the foundation of

success. From my point of view, I deemed it success should also rely on these

factors: diligent, confident, humor. It can help us to open the door of

success.

There is no denying that diligent is the first step to the success. As the

proverb says, no pains, no gains. Absolutely, guess that a person without

diligent, how can he get achievements. Many successful people have become famous

in the world by their diligent. Therefore we should take diligence as a good

habit rather than lazy at every time.

Edison said “confident is the mother of the success. There is no doubt that

confidence is important to our daily life .If someone without confident, he will

never succeed in the end of his life. If someone trusted himself, he would

gained more chance to succeed. How could you get other’s trust if you didnt

trust yourself?

In addition, humor plays an important role in our life. It’s obvious that a

sense of humor can bring happiness to others and get involved to a group easily.

Just like my friend who is an energetic and lovely boy. The boss and staff like

him very much. Boss thinks highly of him in the company. Sometimes, we should

learn to how express humorously. A sense of humor can create unexpected

result.

From what has been mention above, a good disposition is an important factor

to our success. Therefore, how to develop a good disposition is essential.

independent as they live in the dormitory. Learning major knowledge and

mastering the professional skill are the main tasks, but the necessity of

practical experience can’t be ignored if they want to start their career

successfully.

Being freshmen, many students start to lose themselves as they just want to

enjoy the freedom and forget about study when they come to campus. But some wise

students have made their plans. They not only spend a lot of time in library,

but also fulfill their time by taking practical experience, which will be a

great help in future career. We are easy to find that the successful young men

have started their career as they are students.

In the job market, most employers care about the practical experience when

they look at the resumes. They want this type of graduates because they can

spend less time to teach them get familiar with the new environment, which can

improve the working efficiency. If students want to take advantages over others

in the job market, then they’d better seek some internship.

一个善良的小男孩,一个忧郁的小男孩,一个倔强的小男孩,这个小男孩就是《孤儿》中的主人公奥利弗。

奥利弗是个孤儿,在济贫院中长大,因饥饿向厨师要粥喝而被送到棺材铺当学徒。受尽凌辱后逃到伦敦。在那儿,他误入贼窝,被费金指使行窃,作案时被抓住。失主布朗洛收养了他,但他又被女贼南希抓回,跟随赛克斯行窃,行窃失败,又被主人家收养。南希得知了奥利弗的身世,告知罗斯,因此被赛克斯杀害。最后,奥利弗依法继承父亲财产,盗窃团伙受到法律严惩。

《雾都孤儿》吸引我的不仅是它的故事情节,还给我带来了许多的启迪,其中最重要的一点是:我们每个人都要有爱心,都要乐于助人。我们生活中就有这样的例子。在2008年5.12大地震中,全国人民万众一心,众志成城:解放军叔叔不怕辛苦,日夜解救埋在废墟下的幸存者;街头的红十字采血车上,很多叔叔阿姨将自己的爱心奉献出来,用他们的鲜血挽救那些生命垂危的病人,这些充满爱心的鲜血汇成生命的长河;大批的志愿者赶赴灾区,献出自己的一份力;大批的物资从各地运送到灾区;小学生们也纷纷用零花钱为灾区捐款,一元钱的力量也许很小,只是杯水车薪,但汇集着无数爱心的无数个一元钱,它的力量却很大,灾区的人民一定能体会我们的爱心,感受到大家庭的温暖……这体现出了我们全国人民的爱心和我们乐于助人的精神。

对人民我们要有爱心,对动物植物我们也要有爱心。我们人类和动物植物是最亲密的伙伴,没有了它们,我们会觉得寂寞。我们要爱惜动物,爱惜一花一草,一树一木,这样,我们的世界才能更可爱更美好。

爱心是一朵花,一朵美丽奇妙的花;爱心是一首歌,一首焕发向上的歌;爱心是一股泉,一股清澈透亮的泉。让我们每个人都献出一点爱心,让世界变得更美好!

It goes without saying that english plays an important role in our modern

society. english is an international language. wherever you go, you can hear

english spoken by many people.

From this point of view, it is true that english is important to our daily

life. learning english is like learning to swim or learning to play ball. our

primary trouble is that we have tackled the study of language from the wrong

end. we are like theman who thinks he can learn to swim only by reading books

about swimming. in actuality, we learn by doing. the grammatical rules are

valuable as we plunge into the language and need some assistance. in the same

way, advanced instructions about swimming are helpful as we learn something from

actual experience in the water. but reading books never makes a swimmer and

learning rules never makes a practical linguist. the regular procedure in

learning english involves listening first, to be followed by speaking. then

comes reading, and finally the writing of the language. the way you learn

english is much the same as the way you learned your own language.

First of all you must listen and then repeat and repeat until you can use

the language easily. in other words, you have to build up language habits in

english just as you build up english habits in your own language. to sum up, we

must bear in mind that nobody can learn to swim for you. nobody can learn to

play ball for you. nobody can learn english for you. its up to you. you must

learn for yourself and you will learn if you really want to and are willing to

practice.

It maybe our common desires to experience a meaning life, but when it comes

to the topic “How to live a meaningful life”, the opinions are divided. In

someone’s eyes, they agree that a meaningful life is just a comfortable life

which means they can enjoy themselves as possible as they can.

However, personally in my view, if we spend our whole life in pursuing

things only for ourselves, we will surely let ourselves down when we look back.

There’s an old saying that goes “The greatest use of life is to spend it for

something that will outlast it”. I can’t agree more. If there is a way to avoid

a disappointed life, it should be to try our best to find meaningful things

which can also make contributions to the whole society. Even a single man can

make a big difference to the world. Not to mention that everyone get together to

bring changes to the society.

It’s high time that we took measures to experience a meaning life. What’s

more, it’s never too late to start a meaning life. So be yourself, enjoy your

happiness and be helpful to others. That’s the meaning life worth living.

篇20:英语高一优秀作文100字

全文共 1662 字

The way people hold the belief that a fun-filled, pain-free lifestyle

equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever obtaining real

happiness. If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness,then pain must be equal to

unhappiness. But in fact,the opposite is true: more often than not things that

lead to happiness contain some pain.

As a result,many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true

happiness.They fear the pain inevitably (不可避免地) brought by such things as

marriage,raising children,professional achievement, religious commitment,

self-improvement.

Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be

less and less satisfying. If he is honest,he will tell you that he is afraid of

making a commitment,for commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is

filled with fun, adventure and excitement.Marriage has such moments,but they are

not its most distinguishing features.

Couples,with infant children, are lucky to get a whole nights sleep of a

three-day vacation. We dont know any parent who would choose the word fun to

describe raising children. But couples that decide not to have children ever

know the joys of watching a child grow up or playing with a grandchild.

Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun

is one of the most liberating realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote

more hours to activities that can really increase our happiness. It liberates

money:buying that new car or those fancy clothes to increase our happiness now

seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy:we now understand that all those

who always have so much fun actually may not be happy at all.
