初二年级internet的英语作文优秀20篇

With the deepening of reform and opening-up of our country, many people dream of going abroad for further study. They insist that the modern research facilities, world famous professors and excellent environment in those foreign colleges can help lay a perfect foundation for their future development.

However, there are still many people who favor studying at home. They argue that studying abroad is too expensive and doesnt pay. They also point out that there are no language and cultural barriers if they study at home.

Both opinions are acceptable in some sense. If students have the chance and financial resources, they should seize the opportunity to study abroad and broaden their eyes. On the other hand, if conditions dont permit, they can pursue their studies in top universities at home. What counts is not the place where you study, but the desire to learn.

随着我国改革开放的加深，很多人梦想着出国深造。他们认为国外大学的先进研究设备，闻名世界的教授以及优越的环境能够帮助他们为未来的发展打下完美的基础。

然而，仍然有很多人赞成在国内学习。他们认为出国留学太贵了，付不起费用。他们还指出如果他们在国内学习就不会存在语言和文化障碍。

从某种意义上说着两种观点都可以接受。如果学生拥有机会和经济来源，他们应该抓住机会出国留学，开阔他们的视野。另一方面，如果条件不允许，他们可以在国内顶级大学追求学业。重要的不是你在哪个地方学习而是你学习的渴望。

Someone says: are you a silkworm, spit of the continuous filament and die. Someone says: you are the candle, to the best of the last drop of tears to illuminate the dark night sky; Someone said, you are the morning dew, often before dawn, moistens the land silently all things... You, is my respected teacher, non-existent.

Non-existent with tall, round face, with two arch eyebrows on his forehead, under the arch eyebrows with a pair of bright and sharp eyes, she has a plausible mouth, a smile, mouth petal meniscus as quiet.

Non-existent at ordinary times is very strict with our requirements. Each lesson learned to write the book of copying, will ask us to write the word is very good, to write bad words will never let go, until it is written. Words because some students in our class wrote too fast and some bad, non-existent will let them change to come over, we all have greatly improved.

Non-existent also care about us. Remember once, I was a bit uncomfortable, go to the clinic under temperature, amount of 37.5 degrees, non-existent just said to me: "if uncomfortable, he said to the teacher, the teacher will and parents said." Non-existent for we really care about.

Teacher, I salute you! Is that you get ignorant we into the space of knowledge, sowing love with you that like the sound of a song! Like a candle, burn yourself, you give we lit the fire of hope, with your persistent enthusiasm to guide us to open our science maze! Thank you, teacher!

有人说：你是春蚕，吐不尽那绵绵的细丝至死方休!有人说：你是蜡烛，洒尽最后一滴泪去照亮漆黑的夜空;还有人说：你是朝露，常在黎明到来之前，默默地滋润着大地万物……你，就是我敬爱的老师——汤老师。

汤老师长着高高的个子，圆圆的脸蛋，额上长着两道柳眉，柳眉下嵌着一双明亮而又锐利的眼睛，她还有一张能说会道的嘴巴，一笑起来，嘴瓣儿像恬静的弯月。

汤老师平时对我们的要求很严格。每次学完课写《习字册》的时候，都会要求我们把字写得非常端正，对写的不好的字决不放过，直到写好为止。班里有几个同学的字因为写得太快而有些不好，汤老师就会让他们改过来，使我们都有很大的提高。

汤老师还很关心我们。记得有一次，我有点不舒服，去医务室量了下温度，37.5度，汤老师就跟我说：“如果不舒服，就跟老师说，老师就会和家长说的。”汤老师对我们真的非常关心。

老师，我向您致敬!是您把懵懂的我们领进知识的太空，用您那如歌的声音把爱播种!您像蜡烛一样燃烧了自己，给我们点燃希望的火种，用您那执著热情指引我们打开科学的迷宫!谢谢您，老师!

Last week Chang Feng Park held a flower show. I went to visit it with my friends. I was very glad to see so many beautiful flowers in the park. I was really amazed to see a sea of colourful flowers. They told me that some rare flowers came from Taiwan.Thousands of people stopped and watched them carefully. I took many pictures there. Taiwan has always been a part of our country. I am sure sooner or later we can go there to see many more beautiful flowers. What great fun it will be.

Long long ago, many families had three or four children. They couldnt look after everyone well, so the children must do everything by themselves. They were too poor to go to school. Some of them liked learning, but they had to go to find jobs to make money. Since they were children, they could do lots of difficult things like their parents. Sometimes they even did better than them!

But now, many families have only one child and they regard their child as a pearl. They did everything for the children. Every day, when the child gets up, their parents help him to make the room clean. They also get breakfast ready for their child. When the child is free, they can sleep or do other things, but they neednt do any housework. So many children cant cook; wash their clothes, some dont even know how to clean the floor. That’s too bad.

In the future, many families will have computers. We can work on the computer instead of going out to do everything. The children also can learn on the computers, so they dont need to move! After a long time, well become fatter and fatter. We wont be able to do anything by ourselves!

So, which way is good for us? We must think more.

很久以前，许多家庭有三或四个孩子。他们不能照顾好每一个人，所以孩子们必须自己做所有的事情。他们太穷上不起学。尽管有些人喜欢学习，但是他们不得不去找工作赚钱。当他们还是个孩子的时候就像他们的父母一样能做很多困难的事情。有时，他们甚至比他们父母做得更好!

但是现在，很多家庭只有一个孩子，他们把孩子视为掌上明珠。他们所做的一切都是为了孩子。每天，当孩子起床了，他们的父母帮他把房间打扫干净。还为孩子准备早餐。当孩子空闲的时候可以睡觉或做其他的事情，但不必做任何家务。很多的孩子不会做饭,不会洗自己的衣服，有些甚至不知道如何扫地。这样太可惜了。

在将来，许多家庭拥有电脑。我们可以在电脑上工作，而不是去做每一件事。孩子们也可以在电脑上学习，所以他们不需要走动!长时间以后，我们会变得越来越胖。我们做不了任何事情!

所以，什么样的方式对我们是好的?我们必须想得更多的。

过年后的几天，我们全家人一起去了韩国的首尔玩。

出发的那一天，我们先到杭州的萧山机场，然后坐着飞机去了韩国首尔的机场，韩国那里的地上有雪，放眼望去，雪白一片，美极了!

第一天，当地的导游带我们去吃了那里的蛤蜊刀削面，韩国没有像中国那样的一大桌的菜，他们那边都是方桌子，每桌四人，不能多也不能少，桌上每人只有四碟小菜，一盘是泡菜，一盘是腌萝卜，一盘是麻辣豆腐，还有一盘是甜酱。我们吃完了饭，便回了酒店。导游对我们说，虽然韩国十分冷，但是韩国人却很少穿棉衣，因为他们家里的地板是热的，他们有地热，我们迫不及待地进了旅馆房间，赶紧伸出脚来体验，一踩上去，地热马上传了上来，没过一会，房间就很热了，晚上睡觉的时候都不用盖被子。

第二天，我们去了韩国的人文博物馆，体验了韩国人从小到大，从上学到成家立业的景象。然后，我们去喝了参鸡汤，韩国的高丽太极人蔘特别好，外面是白皮，里面是红肉，阴阳相合，八个月大的小孩到八十岁大的老人都可以服用。吃完饭后，我们去了朝鲜和韩国的“三八线”，“三八线”两头便是韩国和朝鲜，两国各向后退二公里，后退的那部分谁也不能进去，飞机也不能从它的上空经过，要是有人进去，两国的军队都会开炮，周围围着铁丝网，还有军队埋的地雷。

最特别的便是韩国的牙签，韩国那里的牙签不像中国的牙签，不是竹子做的，而是用绿豆，淀粉混合而成，就像粉条一样，在热水里泡久了便可以吃，韩国十分环保，垃圾每周只能倒两次，一次是星期二，一次是星期五，所以韩国人会十分节制得减少垃圾的产生。

要是中国也有韩国那样环保，这里的空气就不会那么浑浊了，多希望以后的国家也能做到环保意识强一点啊。

暑假里，我和爸爸妈妈一起去参观上海科技馆。

科技馆座落于上海浦东，地铁载着我一颗兴致勃勃的心一路把我送往上海科技馆站。刚一出地铁站口，一座宏伟壮观的扇形大楼就把我的视线吸引了过去，这座大楼的中心是一个玻璃大球体，球的两旁向外伸展着两座扇形楼房，像是球上长出了两只大翅膀，大楼的正面都是用玻璃制成的，在阳光的照耀下散放出灿烂的光彩，这就是上海科技馆。

今天参观的人可真多呀!我随着人流来到科技馆生物万象区，刚跨进区内，哇!眼前的美景让我惊呆了：一个绚丽多彩的生物世界展现在我的眼前。我们一边漫步在高山流水下，一边观看着热带雨林植物，耳边还不时传来叽叽喳喳的小鸟歌唱声，使我尽情领悟到丰富多彩的生命现象，让我仿佛进入了原始的自然风光区。

离开了生物万象，去了机器人世界展区，咦!这里哪里传来钢琴曲，我闻声放眼望去，原来是机器人音乐家正在有声有色地尽情为大家演奏，太美妙了!你看，那边的机器人更棒着呢!它正专心致志的跟一位小朋友下棋，看着那位小朋友满脸焦急、大汗淋漓的样子，我想，他肯定已斗不过机器人了。这里的机器人真多呀!不过，最引人注目的还是机器人剧场，它们个个都穿着漂亮的衣裙，头上带着时尚的帽子，手上还撑着一把小花伞，正随着音乐翩翩起舞，远远望去真像一群俊俏的小姑娘。穿过机器人世界，我们又去参观了信息时代、探索之光，宇宙天地……

这次参观不但让我愉快地过上了一天，更让我开阔了眼界，了解到我们身边存在的各种科学奥秘，使我懂得了我们每个人都应该爱科学、学科学、用科学。让科学为我们作出更大的贡献。你没和机器人比赛魔方呀，真可惜。

I took out some candles and lighted up. We were singing, laughing and talking. We had a really good time. But while I was singing, the light suddenly turned on. Oh, my God. My father went back to his room went on writing. My mother turned on the TV and said to me “Dear, do your homework!” I felt very frustrated. I sat at the desk and thought I hated light. I hoped there would be a blackout the next day. I thought I would enjoy myself more and more. I went into a dream……

As we all know, trees are very useful. They are of great benefit to man as

follows: First, trees provide us with wood and other products; Second, their

roots can allow the rain to sink in and keep the soil, so they help to prevent

droughts and floods. Trees can clean air and beautiful life.

Unfortunately, nowadays in many parts of the world lots of people fail to

realize the importance of trees. They have cut trees down in large numbers

without a plan,which makes the soil washed away. They dont know where there no

trees, the rain washed away the surface of the soil and this causes floods.

We ought to plant trees each year and carefully look after new trees in

order not to make the forest slowly disappear. Only in this way can we make the

forest serve man forever.

参考范文：

I study in a beautiful school. There are many trees and flowers in campus.

It’s green all the year round. There are three buildings in my school. Two of them are teaching buildings and one is office and library. Our classroom is large and bright. We are happy to study in it. Besides, there are two playgrounds in my school, a basketball court and a football field.

After class, I often play in the basketball court. And, there are many other places for fun in my school. I like my lovely school.

参考译文：

我在一个美丽的学校学习。在校园里有许多树和花。

一年四季都是绿色的。在我的学校有三个建筑。他们两个是教学大楼和一个办公室和图书馆。我们的教室又大又明亮。我们乐于学习。除此之外,有两个操场在我的学校,一个篮球场和一个足球场。

下课后,我经常在篮球场上。,还有许多其他有趣的地方在我的学校。我喜欢我可爱的学校。

July xx,20xx Sunday

I went to the home for the aged with my friends on July 30th. As soon as the aged saw us, they were all happy. 1.We sang songs and danced for them. Then we helped the worker clean the rooms and washes the clothes. They praised us a lot and said that we were good boys. Although we felt tired, we had a good time.

My hometown used to be a backwardplace, because it was deep in the

mountains, where there were no nice buildingsand the roads were so narrow and

dirty. People lived a poor life.

While in recent years, with thedevelopment of society, my hometown has been

greatly changed.

Now the roads aregetting much wider. There are many different cars and

buses running on theroads.

Trees and flowers are planted on the two sides of the roads.

They canprovide us with oxygen and fight against the pollutants. So the sky

becomescleaner and brighter. Whats more, you can see many modern and

beautifulbuildings everywhere, and the living conditions are improving. People

areenjoying a comfortable life now.

Nowadays there are still many behaviors against public morality, such as

spiting or littering in public places, cutting in line, wasting water or

electricity and so on.

One of the main reasons for these immoral behaviors is that some people

lack personal manners and public consciousness. Actually these small things in

many peoples eyes have brought great bad effects on our community. Above all,

these immoral behaviors disturb social order and disrupt socialsbility.

Moreover, ones violating public morality not only evades others benefits but

also does harm to himself. For example, if most people buy pirated products,

those original producers will suffer great damage and might lose the enthusiasm

to continue their producing. Which in turn, influences consumers taking the

profits into consideration, I think it is high time that we would take more

effective measures to improve public morals.

First of all, education plays a very vital role. We must utilize education

to make people know their behaviors influence on the society and follow public

morals consciously. Besides the government should improve the administration

system and ensure the efficient improvement of administration measures.

Dear Tom,

How are you?

I would like to tell you something that took place in my school yesterday. In the afternoon the school held a growing-up ceremony for our coming 18-year-old birthday. At the beginning we made an oath that as grown-ups we should have a sense of responsibility for our society. Next we expressed our thands to our parents who brought us up and to our teachers for their education. Then our teachers gave us cards with good wishes. Finally, we had wonderful performances. I learned a lot from the activity. I am sure the ceremony is very important for us. From then on we will know our responsibilities as grown-ups.

Yours,

Li Hua

[关于初二英语作文：ALettertoTom

看着一年一度的端午节就要到来了，我心里有说不出的高兴，端午节有许多习俗，例如赛龙舟、吃粽子、吃盐鸭蛋……这个节日也是为了纪念伟大爱国主义者——屈原。

每到这一天，家家户户都江堰市会包粽子，吃粽子，棕子的品种多如繁星，各式各样，有简单好吃的白粽，有红白相间的赤豆粽，还有鲜嫩可口的肉粽……简直让人馋得直流口水啊！我们家也是一样的，每次大都包的是白粽，虽然它非常单调，但是吃起来特别松软，香甜可口。包粽子所需准备的材料有：芦叶、糯米和线。

里面包的馅可以根据自己的个人爱好去调整。我们家一般会把采摘回来的芦叶浸在水里，浸得比较软时，包起来会好包一点。包粽子可是奶奶的拿手绝活呢！我通常都会坐在奶奶的对面，帮她拿叶拿线。我时不时还会照着奶奶的样子学起来，可是总到了第二步装米的时候，出洋相了，由于我物拿错地方，倒致米装一粒掉一粒，最后搞得芦叶上到处是米。

奶奶会在一旁笑眯眯地对我说：“你这个小调皮蛋，尽给我帮倒忙。”我看我还是安分点好。棕子包完了，放在滚烫滚烫的热水中煮一个晚上，就可以吃了。

第二天早晨，就会闻到粽子发出来的清香，拆开“包装”，里面是雪白的糯米，我马上就狼吞虎咽吃起来。吃咸鸭蛋也是这儿的习俗，敲醉蛋壳，里面是白白的蛋白和金黄的蛋黄。这可是吃粥时必备的美味啊！

我们家就数我妈妈和奶奶喜吃咸鸭蛋了，每顿饭都少不了吃上一只，可见她们对咸鸭蛋真是情有独钟呀！我喜爱端午节，端午节是一个快乐的节日，我们可以吃上香喷喷的粽子，可以享受红黄流油的咸鸭蛋，可以赛龙舟……啊，我期盼今年的端午快快到来！
