There are many festivals in China,During these holidays, my favorite holiday is Chinese New Year.Not only because it’s the biggest festival in the year, but also because it’s a new beginning that brings hope to people and it’s time for family gathering.Before the festival, people come home no matter where they are.Usually, we have a big dinner on the New Year’s Eve. And then families sit together and share their lives or planes.Some will play games or hang out to have some fun.

On the New Year’s Day, people get up early and say good words to anyone they meet.Children can get lucky money from relatives.In the following days, we will visit relative’s home and bring New Year’s wishes to them.In short, it’s a time for family gathering and all of us enjoy it.

在中国,一年有很多节日,在这些节日中,我最喜欢春节。这不仅因为它是一年中最大的节日,更因为它是新一年的开始,给人们带来新的希望,也因为它是亲朋好友团聚的时刻。不管身在何方,人们总会在春节前回到家里准备过节。

通常,我们会在除夕夜吃一顿丰盛的晚餐,之后家人团座一起,分享一年以来的生活以及新年计划。有的人则会玩游戏或者出去玩。大年初一,人们通常会早起,会与见到的人说吉祥话。孩子们会得到压岁钱。在接下来的几天里,人们会带上新年祝福互相串门拜年。总之,春节是一个欢聚一堂、供人享乐的日子。

Dear Uncle,

How are you? Next week an English speaking contest will be held in the

city. A classmate of mine and I will take part in it on behalf of my school. I

Good morning,everyone! I`m very happy to have this chance to give my

presentation. Before I start my speech, please let me ask you a question. Do you

think you are confident in yourself? If you are, do please raise your hand.

My topic today is “ to Be a Confident Person.”

What is confidence? Confidence is to trust yourself. Confidence is to look

upon yourself. It is not to indulge in self-admiration. It is not to get

extremely arrogant. It is not to get dizzy with success or to be opinionated. It

is just to inspire yourself ahead of a quality of mind, in high spirit, full of

energy. It is to meet the challenges of life in a positive mood. It is to

overcome your inferiority, farewell, to get rid of the trouble of a a ready-made

panacea.

Remember, I have just entered junior high school. In the face of the

challenge of new environment, in the face of so many new courses and learning

contents, I lost faith in my own and gradually developed a psychological sense

of inferiority. Achievement glided ceaselessly. It is a teacher and mother who

encouraged me and let me regain confidence. Gradually, my grades got higher and

higher and everything began to go on well. Gradually I adapted to the life in

middle school.

Friends, lets say goodbye to inferiority. Let’s be a confident person.

Because: only if you have self-confidence, can you control yourself; only if you

have confidence, can you achieve success and create your a brilliant life of

your own!

大家好!

今天我演讲的题目是:做一个自的人。

什么是自信?自信,就是自己信得过自己,自己看得起自己。它,不是孤芳自赏,也不是夜郎自大,更不是得意忘形和自以为是;而是激励自己奋发进取的一种心里素质,是以高昂的斗志,充沛的干劲迎接生活挑战的一种乐观情绪;是战胜自己,告别自卑,摆脱烦恼的一种灵丹妙药。

还记得,我刚刚升入初中时,面对新的环境,面对那么多的新的课程和学习内容,我对自己失去了信心,逐渐产生了自卑心理,成绩不断下滑,是老师和妈妈及时帮助我、鼓励我,让我重新找回自信。渐渐的,我的学习成绩及各个方面都有明显进步,逐渐适应了初中的生活。

朋友们,让我们告别自卑,做一个自信的人吧。因为:只有拥有自信,才能拥有自我;只有拥有自信,才能走向成功,才能创造自己辉煌的人生。

篇一:

The ancient said the world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page. I like travel, because travel not only allows me to enjoy the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, but also brings me knowledge and exercise. Beautiful sceneries make me impressed and friendly people make me warm. Travel is a process of discovery of beauty that would company my whole life. I like the feeling on the road, which greatly enrich my life and fields of vision. Being to different places, seeing different views makes me know how big the world is, so that I won’t bother my trifles. I think a broad mind is extremely important to a person, and traveling is a good way to get it. Maybe some people would say that I travel just because I want to relax. There’s no doubt about that. No matter for what reason, traveling is attractive to us all.

古人云:读万卷书,不如行万里路。我喜欢旅行,旅行不仅让我饱览祖国的大好河山,而且在学到知识的同时还锻炼了自己。美丽的风景让我印象深刻,有好的人们也让我倍感温暖。旅行就是一个发现美的过程,这种美的感受将会陪伴我的终生。我喜欢在路上的感觉,这极大的丰富了我的生活和视野。到不同的地方,看不同的风景会让我知道世界之大,从而不会被琐事叨扰。我认为开阔的胸襟对一个人来说尤为重要,而旅行是开阔胸襟的一个好方式。也许有的人会说,我之所以去旅行,只是因为想得到放松,这是毫无疑问的。不管出于什么原因,旅行总是充满诱惑。

Therefore, travel is not stopped. It went to not only the country but also foreign countries. The communication of the intention can have been done with the person in the country though the word did not run well. However, I thought that the handicap of the word was large.

How about you? Traveling with someone is also good. However, I yearn to the solitary journey very much. It is not, and yearns for the destination to free travel. I want to go out to unrestrained travel some time.

Finally, I yearn to the solitary journey. However, I do not hate tour travel. I think that there is a merit also in the tour. I think that traveling with the person who does not know also has the enjoyment. However, I like independent tour more. Which do you like?

篇三:

有人喜欢生机勃勃的春天,有人喜欢苍翠欲滴的夏天,有人,喜欢那白雪皑皑的冬天,而我,却喜欢硕果累累的秋天。

春天,万物复苏,细柳折腰,这个季节是一年中大好之季,万事欣欣向荣,生机勃勃。但其中却有一丝缠绵之意,昏昏然然。

夏天,烈日当空之季,炎炎烈日,挥汗如雨。池中蛙声不绝,林中蝉鸣不休,令人难以安心。

冬天,一年最末之季。白雪皑皑,寒气逼人,草木枯萎。冰寒刺骨,雪冷杀人。可实有一种空虚。

以上三季,依我看来,都不是最美之季。唯独秋天最美。

秋天,五谷丰收之季。金穗飘香,麦浪层层。朝阳升起来,把天空照的异常明亮。由于秋天野花装点得色彩斑斓的山坡,在阳光下,更加绚丽。风吹动着枫叶的树冠,沙沙作响一并枫叶脱开了枝头,随风悠悠荡荡的飘落。它在生命的最后旅程中,给这个世界留下了多么美好的印象!

喜欢冬天,喜欢冬天暖暖的被窝,享受那温暖舒适的感觉;喜欢冬天一家人围着热腾腾的饭菜,驱走寒冷的爱意涌上心头;喜欢冬天各家各户的灯光,柔柔地射出,在寒冷的夜晚显得如此温暖。我想,正是有了冬天的寒冷才让我们明白了生活的温暖!

我是一个喜欢安静的人,同样会喜欢一个安静的季节。冬,没有了春天各种各样的鸟叫声,不必担心早上会被鸟叫声吵醒;冬,没有了夏日吵人的蝉声,不必担心自己在做作业时被蝉叫声吵得心烦意乱;冬,没有了秋天石板缝里的蟋蟀声,不必担心自己入睡时被蟋蟀的合唱所“骚扰”。在冬天这个万籁寂静的季节,自己可以捧起一本书静静阅读或一边品尝点心一边静静地思考心事。冬,给我们的思绪最大的自由空间。

冬天是一个美丽的季节。虽然没有春天用绿叶制成的绿大褂,没有夏天五彩斑斓的花裙子,没有秋天金光闪闪的黄风衣,但却有纯洁无暇的白棉袄。冬天雪花飘落,纷纷扬扬地散落大地,放眼望去,“山舞银蛇,原驰蜡象,欲与天公试比高。”树白了,田白了,世界都白了。

冬天同样是一个充满生机的季节。没有更多艳丽的鲜花做装饰,不照样有“凌寒独自开”的“数枝梅”吗?没有百花浓郁的香味,不照样有“暗香来”吗?冬天是个性格怪异的人,最喜欢考验人了。只有梅花经历了冬冷酷的考验,所以冬只选择梅花在自己的季节中开放。冬的生命力是最顽强的!

现在,我要趁冬天还没有结束,尽情享受冬天的乐趣,欣赏冬天的魅力。朋友们,让我们一起来拥抱冬天吧!

篇20:英语满分作文幸福话题带翻译

全文共 1692 字

幸福是否可以用金钱购买?不可能!但是不是钱多一点我们就会更开心一点呢?对此,大多数人一定微笑赞同。我们相信,收入的富足与舒适的生活感受之间有着某种联系。几乎所有人都会说,是的,我希望变得富有。而目前有四分之三的美国大学生都认为,过上“十分富裕”的生活是“非常重要”和“必不可少”的。钱的作用的确不小。

Does money buy happiness? No! Ah, but would a little more money make us a little happier? Many of us smirk and nod. There is, we believe, some connection between fiscal fitness and feeling fantastic. Most of us would say that, yes, we would like to be rich. Three in four American collegians now consider it “very important” or “essential” that they become “very well off financially”. Money matters.

但是,富人就一定更快乐吗?研究人员发现,在一些贫穷的国家,相对而言比较富裕确实会使人过得更幸福一些。我们需要食物、住所、休息和社会关系。然而,人们惊讶地发现,在那些几乎所有人都衣食无忧的国家里,财富的增加所产生的效果微乎其微。收入与幸福之间的关联“惊人得微弱”。一旦生活舒适,钱所带来的收益便呈现递减趋势。得到的第二笔十万美元就像吃到的第二只派,尝起来永远都不如第一只那么美味。即使那些彩票得主和福布斯排名前一百的富人们也并没有比一般的美国人更开心多少。飞黄腾达只能带来暂时的喜悦。从长远来说,财富就像健康一样,失去它的人定会感到不幸,而拥有它的人却未必一定幸福。

Well, are rich people happier? Researchers have found that in poor countries, being relatively well off does make for greater well-being. We need food, rest, shelter and social contact. But a surprising fact of life is that in countries where nearly everyone can afford life’s necessities, increasing affluence matters surprisingly little. The correlation between income and happiness is “surprisingly weak”. Once comfortable, more money provides diminishing returns. The second piece of pie, or the second $100,000, never tastes as good as the first. Even lottery winners and the Forbes’ 100 wealthiest Americans have expressed only slightly greater happiness than the average American. Making it big brings temporary joy. But in the long run, wealth is like health: its utter absence can breed misery, but having it doesn’t guarantee happiness.
