[初中英语作文：为什么要学习英语

每次我放学回家，都会看见几个小孩坐在马路旁边乞讨。我不知道他们的父母是谁。他们多么狠心呀!他们差不多跟我一样大作文 你也可以投稿，也是上学的年龄了，但是他们不能。似乎没有人关心他们。我多么希望他们的父母能带他们回家啊。如果他们的父母真是穷得不能送他们去学校，那么我希望整个社会能够伸出援助之手。他们可以求助于希望工程呀。

Every time I come home from school, I see several children sitting beside the road and begging. I don’t know where their parents are. How coldhearted they are! Every time I will think so. Those children are just of the same age with me. It’s the age for school. But they can’t. It seems that no one cares for them. How I hope that their parents come and bring them home. If their parents are really too poor to send them to school, then I hope the whole society will help. They can go to the Hope Project.

写作技巧就是表现时运用的方法，是作者为表情达意而采取有效艺术手段。语文说明文的写作技巧，我们一起来了解一下。

一、 说明文的定义

说明文是以说明为主要表达方式来解说事物、阐明事理而给人知识的文章体裁。它通过揭示概念来说明事物特征、本质及其规律性。说明文一般介绍事物的形状、构造、类别、关系、功能，解释事物的原理、含义、特点、演变等。说明文实用性很强，它包括广告、说明书、提要、提示、规则、章程、解说词、科学小品等。

二、 说明文的特点

说明文的特点是说，而且具有一定的知识性。这种知识，或者来自有关科学研究资料，或者是亲身实践、调查、考察的所得，都具有严格的科学性。为了要把事物说明白，就必须把握事物的特征，进而揭示出事物的本质属性，即不仅要说明是什么，还要说明为什么是这样。应用性说明文一般只要求说明事物的特征，阐述性说明文则必须揭示出问题的本源和实质。 说明文是客观地说明事物的一种文体，目的在于给人以知识：或说明事物的状态、性质、功能，或阐明事理。《中国石拱桥》属于前者，它以赵州桥和卢沟桥为例说明中国石拱桥不但形式优美，而且结构坚固的特征。《大自然的语言》属于后者，文章科学地说明了物候学知识。说明事物特点和阐明事理是说明文的两种类型。

三、 说明文的常用说明方法及作用

1、说明的方法有：下定义,作诠释,举例子,列数字,打比方,作比较,分类别,引资料,摹状貌,做图表 2、明白各种方法的作用。

举例子：这里使用了举例子的说明方法，具体说明了 这种说明方法的作用是使说明的对象具体形象，便于读者理解。

作比较：这里拿和作比较，突出(具体)说明了 作比较用于突出强调被说明对象的特点(地位、影响等)。

列数字：这里使用了列数字的说明方法，准确说明了 (列举了的数字，准确说明了)其作用是使说明准确无误，令读者信服。

分类别：分类别的作用是使说明条理清楚。

打比方：它的主要作用是使说明对象生动形象，增强文章的趣味性。

作诠解：用于解释被说明内容的成因及内在联系。

下定义：其作用是科学准确地解释说明对象的内涵，使说明更严密。

画图表：可使说明内容直观形象。

摹状貌：使说明生动形象，使文章更具可读性。

3、有时说明文借用其他修辞手法来帮助说明，这些手法的作用分析应当紧紧围绕说明对象，依照说明文的要求。

四、 如何写好说明文

如何使说明文物理并重、形神兼备的呢?首要的一点是观察。说明文写作的前提是对要说明的事物非常熟悉。要做到这一点，就要养成认真观察、深入了解的习惯：

观察要有针对性。要带着问题观察，而不是走马观花、浮光掠影。最好能在观察前列出观察提纲，观察时要记笔记、画图标。要善于提出问题。

观察时要分清主次。这就要求我们注意观察的顺序。观察有概括性观察和特写性观察之分。前一种方法有助于抓住事物的概貌，后者则利于把握观察对象的细节和特征。由概括到特写、由全局到局部，是观察的一般原理。

观察重在事物的形。要想传神，写出事物的内涵、原理等，则需要有很好的查阅资料、作调查的能力。比如我们要写一篇文章来说明洛阳牡丹。在写好它的形状、颜色、品种之外，如果能够考察一下洛阳牡丹的来历、其中的牡丹名品在培育中的科学原理，这篇文章就会有说服力，使读者更深刻地认识到洛阳牡丹的文化特色。这就要求我们具备相当的知识积累、广阔的知识面和优秀的调查能力。作为小学生，应当从小注重积累知识和调查能力的训练。比如通过剪报、记笔记、上图书馆和阅览室等途径来有意识地训练自己。

写作说明文还要注意说明的顺序。有合理的顺序，文章才能条理清晰，让人看得明白。说明顺序一般有三种，即空间顺序、时间顺序、逻辑顺序。间顺序一般有从上到下、从左到右、从前到后、从远到近等。时间顺序一般有从古到今、从过去到现在等。逻辑顺序有从现象到本质、从原因到结果、从主要到次要、从整体到部分、从概括到具体等。什么是合理的顺序呢?这要根据人们认识事物的过程以及说明对象本身的特征、规律而定。说明事物的形状、构造等，往往以空间为顺序;说明事物的成因、方法，往往以时间为顺序;说明事物的事理，往往以逻辑关系为顺序。

当然，大多数说明文会综合使用多种说明顺序。因此，在写作时，我们要合理地安排好说明顺序，理清说明文的结构层次。常用的结构层次有并列式、层进式和总分式三种。比如我们以水为题目进行写作，可以先写水的外形特征，再写水的分类，然后写水的用途，这是并列式的写作层次。我们也可以先写水的外形，再写水的成因，最后写水给人类带来的利与害，这是层进式的结构层次。先概括水的用途和特征，再一一细述，就是总分式。结构层次能力需发同学们在长期的写作过程中培养。

初中二年级英语作文：我最喜欢的节日（春节）

My Favourite Festival

There are many traditional festivals in China. My favourite festival is the Spring Festival. It is a very important festival for Chinese. Before the festival, people will go to visit their relatives and friends. They usually have a big dinner together and give best wishes to each other. Most children in China love this festival because they can play fireworks and lucky money from their parents and relatives.

In the biology class, my teacher likes to assign tasks to us. As a result,

we always need a partner to finish homework. It is hard to find a suitable

partner. I have changed many partners until I met Lucy. Lucy was a new student

here. She just came to this class this semester because her parents changed

their jobs. She asked me to be a team with her and I said yes. I found Lucy and

I had a lot of things in common, like both of us liked to examine books many

times and we were very carefully about experiments. I enjoyed doing homework

with her. She was the best partner.

This week I didnt do many wonderful things．

I went to learn developing film with my classmates on July 1st． It was easy and we all got good marks．

On July 4th， I went to school to learn， because I will be a junior three student soon． We would have to learn some lessons in advance． The weather was very hot． But I didnt feel that learning lessons was boring． Some teachers are new． They are good I think， although they are all looked strict． And the lessons were not too bad．

This week was the beginning of this summer holiday， but it was really typical ．

People always say that life cant goes on well all the time, because we

will meet all kinds of difficulties. When we are students, we want to get

improved and do well in the exams. When we graduate and find a job, we need to

finish the task that boss has assigned. Even the time comes to retire, we still

need to find something to do. Setback is part of life, and we should get used to

it. When we face the difficult time, we should consider it as a test for us and

when we get through it, we will gain valuable experience. The pleasure we get

makes us proud.

【训练目标】

1、回忆自己的暑假生活

2、了解写最熟悉、最动情的东西的意义

3、作文要写的具体，写出情意。

【文题要求】

假期，给我们的生活增添了新的色彩。你可能外出旅游，拥抱自然;可能走走亲戚，会会同学;可能看看奥运会，听听音乐;还可能读了一些你喜欢的书。

也许，假期带给你的不全是快乐，还有些许烦恼、寂寞……

请你选择假期中感受最深的一段生活经历，写一篇作文。

【作文指导】

(1)假期生活，是一个老话题，怎样才能写出新意?

回顾自己的假期生活经历，什么是自己最熟悉、最动情的。要从自己最熟悉、最动情的东西写起。

因为有内容可写，而且能写得具体、生动、有感情。最熟悉、最动情的东西是自己所亲身经历的，有真体验，真感受，能写得见人见物见精神，能绘声绘色，生动描述。文学是脱离不开一个人的实际生活经历的，即使是作家，也只有写他们最熟悉的事物，才能写出好作品来，我们写文章也是如此。

(2)怎样写好最熟悉、最动情的东西?

要善于观察周围的人和事，用心感受。一件细微的小事，一句动人的话语，一个细致的动作，一处独具特色的景物，都能引起人们的某种感受，成为写作的契机和切入点。要有再现客观事物和表现主观情意的能力，所谓再现客观事物，就是把所见所闻的客观事物，如实地再现出来，形象地描绘人物和事物的状貌，清楚顺畅地表述人物的经历或事情发生的过程，让读者也有所感知。表现主观情意，就是要写出自己的感情和思想、意旨。凡是优秀作品，都是感于物而动于情的有感而发之作。文章不是无情物，人们说，没有情意的作品好像是泥胎、木偶、纸花，这是不无道理的。

想到了一些事后，确定自己要写的一件或几件事。想清楚具体情景。整体把握事情的过程，当时自己的情况，对方的一举一动、一言一语，把要描述的地方捕捉住，就像这篇文章所写的那样。将客观事物和主观情意结合起来，写出来的事情才有动人之处。

【素材积累】

(优美句段一)在暑假里，同学们像一只无拘无束的小鸟，没有学习沉重的负担，没有母亲断续地唠叨，在属于自己的空间里自由地飞翔，到游泳池边尽情地嬉戏，任由晶莹的水珠在四处跳跃，到风景如画的东湖，体会那湖水浸湿群衫的别样风情，走进热闹的超市，品味那空调所带来的那份清凉，坐在电脑桌前，让电脑键盘在指间奏出“噼哩啪啦”的美妙乐章。

(优美句段二)炎热的夏季往往是考验人毅力的时候，每个人的毅力不同，但求知的大门永远敞开。就看远处的你我愿不愿走进。走过了炎热，也就代表你走上了一个新的起点。

(优美句段三)游泳是我在夏日中必不可少的运动，在碧波里狠狠一个猛蹿，便会让那碧湛湛的、清凉的池水，凉便全身，浸透心田。虽说在游泳池里偶尔喝几口水，但在池里感觉还是很棒、很爽的!在炎热的夏，来几个狗爬式，几下蛙泳，有一种休闲时尚的感觉。

【优秀例文】

快乐着，痛苦着

――我的暑假生活

一、快乐章

“时光如水，生命如歌。”在白驹过隙间，我们又送走了紧张的一学期，迎来了又一个暑假。

“从今天开始放假了。”老师话音刚落，同学们便欢呼起来：“放假了!放假了。”老师还说了些什么，没有谁听清了。大伙像放飞的小鸟，摆脱了书本的束缚。一拥而出，奔向回家的路。

走出教室，我深呼了一口气。我觉得自己犹如一只单色的氢气球，上学的日子里，老师紧紧的牵着我。放假了，老师放松了手中的线，让我飞向我梦想的地方。

放假的感觉真好。早上睡到十点多才睁开惺忪的睡眼。不紧不慢地穿着衣服，不用在担心爸妈的催促。细细地品味那武汉的风味小吃。空调吹来的凉风令我不由得想到同学。他们一定和我一样此时都在家享受着空调所带来的清凉。

放假的感觉真好。抱上一本闲书故意地从爸妈面前走过。他们的脸上挂着笑，似乎原来所反对的闲书，此时再看起来已经不闲了。

放假的感觉真好!

二、痛苦章

好日子似乎永远都是那么地短暂。对于明年即将成为毕业生的我，这样的好日子就更加的短暂了。

为了让我在最后一年里，成绩能有突飞猛进。妈妈给我订下了目标：抓紧假期的每一天。

母命难为。我的好日子迅速地终止了。每天的学习任务安排得居然比上学的时候还满。几点到几点学英语，几点到几点完成作业，几点到几点学数学，几点到几点学语文。时间经过妈妈精心的安排，居然连一点玩的时间都没有了。真烦!像这样。我的暑假生活何乐之有。

居然怀念起上学的日子来。平时，在学校只不过多一些条条款款的限制，多一些上课的疲惫，多一些作业……但用心地去体会，却可以发现同学之间的友情其实很纯洁，学习生活不仅很有规律，而且那紧张的学习、生活其实很充实。如今，我听不见悦耳的铃声，看不见同学们欢快的身影，只听得见妈妈无休止的唠叨，只看得见爸爸一脸的严肃。我只有满腹的无奈和无尽的烦恼。

每个人在夏天就盼冬天，到了冬天就盼夏天，一开学我就盼放假，可一放假又想上学了。真是一个快乐而又痛苦的暑假。

帮妈妈减肥

暑假里,我看见妈妈总是心事重重的,还总是在镜子前照来照去,我知道,妈妈是为自己逐渐变胖的身材而苦恼。暑假以来,妈妈的客户经常请妈妈吃饭,这些东西不知道有多少卡路里呢!唉，可不是嘛,《大长今》过后，妈妈爱上了韩剧，每天晚都要看，而且天天都到10点多钟，早上怎么能早起?妈妈下班晚，根本没有时间去运动，怎样才能让妈妈变瘦呢?

我先让妈妈做健美操，其实就是广播操，妈妈才做了一半，就已经气喘吁吁了，接下来，是转呼啦圈，妈妈接过那个特大号的呼啦圈。只见妈妈踢踢腿，弯弯腰，扭扭脖子，甩甩手，很认真地做着每个动作。一会儿工夫，就见她全身大汗。我赶紧拿来毛巾和水杯，关心地说：“好了好了，今天到此为止。”妈妈擦了擦汗，一下子喝完了整杯水，这才舒了一口气。

一个星期后，妈妈站上台称。她惊喜地喊道：“减了减了，1公斤呢!”“耶!减肥成功!”我欢呼道。

原来只要能坚持，减肥一定也会成功。

暑假游滨海路

暑假的一天，我和同学一起探访了滨海路。

当我们到达星海广场上滨海路，看见这里路很窄、很曲折、很长，路边的景色也很美。

这儿，刚才大广场的气势没有了，人群的浮器没有了，天上的风筝、地上的马车没有了，使你的心烦气躁也没有了。一边是山，山上松柏常青、槐杨不绝;一边是海，海上涟漪微泛、水天相接。一边给你悦目的翠绿、嫩绿，一边给你赏心的淡蓝、碧蓝;一边挡住都市的喧哗，一边送来自然的风韵;一边高得望不到头，一边深的探不见底;一边展示着顶天立地，一边诠释着有容乃大;一边静得让你想动，一边动得让你平静……

有什么地方能给予人这么美的山水，这么新的空气呢?有什么地方能给予人这么多的联想，这么清的思绪呢?一个个观景台，带你看海，带你看人生、看世界;一处处景点，带你游大连，带你游天地、游历史和未来。每一朵鲜花都在为“天然氧吧”怒放，每一块巨石都在为“水滴石穿”坚毅地挺立在自己的位置。路边一对蚂蚁行过，无忧无虑，因为他们有自己的工作，自己的规则，自己的一片蓝天碧海、高山绿树。

这是自然的厚赐，这才是人类最美的——家。

假期捉鱼

今天，因为天气炎热，所以爸爸带我到河边去玩，还带了瓶子装鱼。

来到河边，爸爸坐在大树下乘凉，我呢，就在河里玩水呀、捉鱼呀。

忽然，我看见一只虾，还以为是鱼，就迫不急待地正想把它搂了起来，没想到它却跑了。我又去追，好不容易才用手把它围住了，搂到瓶子里，仔细一看，呀，原来是一只虾。这时，我像一个泄了气的皮球，一下子软了。我想：好不容易才把它抓住，还是把它养起来吧!接着，我又捉住几条鱼放在瓶子里，和虾做伴。

我抬着瓶子得意地往前走，不小心踩到石头上的一块青苔。只听“咚”的一声，我像一只落汤鸡，浑身是水。而且瓶子里的鱼和虾也趁此机会跑了，留下一个空瓶子泡在水里。我捡起瓶子闷闷不乐地向岸上走去。真是“偷鸡不成，反失把米”。结果我就这样湿漉漉地回家了。

平时的我，总是在学校，很少和大自然亲密接触，对于大自然的很多东西，我都很陌生，以后有机会我一定多接触接触大自然。

In the winter vacation life I have seen such a story to share with you:

Boone smile day, boone to visit a client, but unfortunately, they didnt

reach an agreement. Boone very upset, come back later told the story to the

manager. Tell the manager listened patiently boone, silent for a moment and

said, "you might as well go again, but should adjust their own state, always

remember to smile, use your smile to impress each other, so that he can see your

sincerity."

Boone to try to do it, he behaved himself very optimistic, very sincere,

has been permeated with a smile on his face. Results each other have also been

infected by boone, they happily signed agreement.

Boone have been married for 18 years, every morning to go to work. Busy

life let he forgot his beloved wife, he seldom smile to his wife. Boone decided

to give it a try and see what difference smile will bring their marriage.

The next morning, boone comb my hair looked in the mirror is smiling at

frail, the scowl on his face. When he sat down to eat breakfast, he greeted Mrs.

With a smile. She amazed, very excited. In this two weeks, boone felt more

happiness than in the past two years.

Boone often sincerely compliment, now stop talking about their needs and

annoyance. He tried to see things from other peoples opinions. All this really

changed his life, he gained more joy and friendship.

that he can see your sincerity. A smile can bring warmth, friendship, can bring

happiness. So in the work, life will smile to face, in a good state of mind to

treat people and things around.

Most people miss their grade school days and think they are the happiest time of their life, but whenever I recall them I cannot help feeling a little sad. In my young days I disliked any dismal atmosphere and could not bear the feeling of loneliness, yet the fact was that I often lived in a dismal home and frequently had the bitter taste of lonesomeness. I was not cheerful even in the company of my classmates at the grade school I attended. When I was alone at home the dismal atmosphere often filled me with fear even though thought here went to work in the morning but always came later than I did. For a young person like me t was too bad. Not until I was about sixteen years old had I outgrown t feeling of fear. Then there was that nagging feeling of loneliness either at home of at school. My father changed his job several times and with each change of his job we had to move and I had to attend a different grade school. Before I finished my elementary education I had attended three grade schools and thus it was difficult for me to cultivate enduring friendships. The feeling of being friendless was a constant source of pain to me. Those unhappy grade school days have of course long been over. I still have an abhorrence for any dismal atmosphere and lonesomeness, but hardened by experience I now find them less disturbing than they were.

what should we thank?

the thankful great universe provides the environment of existence for us and give us sunlight, air, water and everything in keeping with we existence of space, bring storm to let us accept to toughen for us, bring to us mysterious let us look for.

the thankful parents give us the life, make us feel the merriment of the human life, feel the genuine feeling of the human life, feel the comity of the human life, feel happiness of the human life, also feel hardships and pain and sufferings of the human life!

[感恩节英语作文写作

在我们出生之前，在妈妈肚子里时，，我们已经跟上了时代的步伐。以至于现在的孩子，追逐时代的步伐，说以现在的家长可能都会说：“现在的孩子都不像孩子。”为什么会这样，其实你们谁都不知道，但是我这样说，有的家长会说：“我不了解他（她）。”但是你们都错了。现在的孩子不是大人想象中的那样单纯，而我们心中装的哪些是你们猜不透的。

我们现在的学习压力已经够大的了，再加上家长给我们的压力，把我们稚嫩的肩膀压得没有喘气的余地了。但是这连家长都感觉不到。

现在我是一名初二的学生，而我每天面临的是那一张张严厉的面容，而至今唯一能解决这些事的，也只有睡觉。现在不是很喜欢放假，放假会有那么多的作业等待着我“批阅”。

曾经的某一天，我有过这样一个愿望：假若我有一双翅膀，那该多好啊！我可以兴天使一样，没烦恼，任凭我得自由自在，坐观天下任何事。

我明白，这件事是不可能实现的，而我最大的梦想就是給我一个小小的空间，只有我一个人，任凭我自由的发挥，没有任何人的干扰。就那么一点点，也与就是那么一点点，我也很满足了……

也许你们给我一双翅膀，我会更快乐一些，也许就会没有各种各样“乱七八糟”的念头。因为我只需要你们给我一点点，那么一点点就够了，我也不会有怨言。

给我一双翅膀，

我用它来创造一个没有痛苦，没有悲伤的地方。

给我一双翅膀，

我用来画下我的忧伤。

完成一幅美丽的图画。

让那些不快乐的情绪，化成一缕青烟，让它随风而散。

给我一双翅膀，

它能给我们开辟一片快乐的天地。

我一双翅膀……

I love weekend, because I can do many things. I can read books, watch TV

and play some games……

OnMonday, I went to school by bike and played computer games.

After nine o’clock, I went to zoo with my parents and saw lots of

animals.

On Wednesday, I went to Cheng gu visited my cousins and my uncle. On

Thursday, I went to library read books.

Friday is my favourite day, I was very happy! Because I saw a film with my

best friend, Webought many books.

On Saturday, I listened to music and watched TV. Today is Sunday, I don’t

like this day, because tomorrow I will go to school.

What a busy week!

When i was in high school, I had to study all the time and hardly had spare

time to do what i wanted to.Besides, I had to focus on my textbooks and doing

exercise again and again. Therefore, I had little time to read magazines and

novels and watch TV. what was worse, I couldnt play with my friends a lot, which

I couldnt stand the most. In a word, all i did in high shool should be

considered for the College Entrance Examination.

However, my college life is totally different from the life in high

school.I can arrange my time freely. I spend most of my time reading in the

library, where I can open my eyes and broaden my mind.In my free time, I also

join some clubs,where i can make a lot of friends of different majors. My

teachers in college are so kind and knowledgeable that they not only teach us

knowledge but also how to be a person and how to get on with others. In

addition, there are more opportunities for me to improve myself.

I believe college life is an important stage in my life. In college, i can

learn how to learn by myself, how to get on with others, how to live

independently.College provides me with a stage where i can show myself and be

myself.

1、思想重视的不够

随着各种教学法涌入我国，对我国英语教学影响最大的当数“听说法”和&ldquo,日记;视听法”。这些教学法提倡将英语作为一门工具来对待，侧重学生语言技能的训练。然而，我们在着意于口头技能培养的同时却忽略了书面阅读和写作，在强调语言结构形式的反复操练的同时却忽略了学生语言能力的培养，从而导致教师和学生轻视英语写作现象的产生。

2、写作素材的缺乏

教师对小学英语写作究竟要写些什么缺乏明确的认识。大部分写作练习表现为简单机械的抄写，学生容易完成，老师易于批改，但写作内容与学生生活缺乏练习。

3、母语文法的束缚

小学生刚刚接触英语，在表达的过程中难免受到母语的构词法、语法和思维方式的影响，用汉语的方式组词或组句，以至于出现大量的文法错误，让人啼笑皆非。

When memory began for me, my grandfather was past sixty-a great tall man

with thick hair becoming gray. He had black eyes and a straight nose which ended

in a slightly flattened tip. Once he explained seriously to me that he got that

flattened tip as a small child when he fell down and stepped on his nose.

The little marks of laughter at the corners of his eyes were the prodnct of

a kindly and humorous nature. The years of work which had bent his shoulders had

never dulled his humour nor his love of a joke.

Everywhere he went, "Gramp" made friends easily. At the end of half an hour

you felt you had known him all your life. I soon learned that he hated to give

orders , but that when he had to, he tried to make his orders sound like

suggestions.

One July morning, as he was leaving to go to the cornfield, he said :

"Edwin, you can pick up the potatoes in the field today if you want to do that.

" Then he drove away with his horses.

The day passed, and I did not have any desire to pick up potatoes. Evening

came and the potatoes were still in the field. Gramp, dusty and tired, led the

horses to get their drink.

"How many bags of potatoes were there?" Gramp inquired. "I dont know.

"

"How many potatoes did you pick up?"

"I didnt pick any. " "Not any! Why not?"

"You said I could pick, them up if I wanted to. You didnt say I had to.

"

In the next few minutes I learned a lesson I would not forget: when Gramp

said I could if I wanted to, he meant that I should want to.

Gram hated cruelty and injustice. The injustices of history, even those of

a thousand years before, angered her as much as the injustices of her own

day.

She also had a deep love of beauty. When she was almost seventy-five, and

had gone to live with one of her daughters, she spent a delightful morning

washing dishes because, as she said, the beautiful patterns on the dishes gave

her pleasure. The bird, the flowers, the clouds-all that was beautiful around

her- pleased her. She was like the father of the French painter, Millet, who

used to gather grass and show it to his son , saying , "See how beautif ul this

is ! "

In a pioneer society it is the harder qualities of mind and character that

are of value. The softer virtues are considered unnecessary. Men and women

struggling daily to earn a living are unable, even for a moment, to forget the

business of preserving their lives. Only unusual people, like my grandparents,

manage to keep the softer qualities in a world of daily struggle.

Such were the two people with whom I spent the months from June to

September in the wonderful days of summer and youth.

蝴蝶只能活几十天，红杉树可以活几千年；而地球却活了45亿年；人，只有一生。

蝴蝶——一个小小的生命，虽然只能活几十天，但它知道奋斗；从它努力将包裹自己的大衣撕破的那一刻起，它便已经意识到自己的生命不会太长；当它认真梳理它那还带着乳液未干的翅膀时它便意识到它的一生都要勤奋；它在采集花粉的同时，还要注意隐藏在美丽背后的杀手——螳螂，蝴蝶常常被螳螂攻击。侥幸逃过的蝴蝶还要遭到蜜蜂的驱赶，毕竟“一山不容二虎”因为蝴蝶实在太怕那根可怕钢针了，一看见它，就叫人打寒颤。这么小的生命，就有着这么大的困难，还能坚持让自己更美好的渡过生命仅有的几天，而我们人呢？

红杉树是恐龙时期生长的巨大的常青树的后代，喜欢潮湿的生存环境，它们400年才能成材，一些树已经活了2000多年，高耸的树冠覆盖着由几世纪落叶形成的寂静的地毯。厚厚的树皮使它们很少遭到火灾，但山崩和强风可摧倒那些老树，它们虽然经常遭到攻击，但是它们却能构从遥远的恐龙时代坚强的活到了现在，经历了风风雨雨的一棵棵红杉树用自己顽强的生命力，坚忍不拔的毅力，坚强不屈的精神活到了现在，这种精神值得我们学习。

大家可能不知道，年轻的幼树沿整个树身分蘖树枝，但是随着树龄增长，下层树枝逐渐脱落，而形成的浓密的上层树冠，树冠排斥了几乎所有投向地面的光线，结果只有在相对疏朗的森林底层，蕨类和而阴植物才能存活，同偶见的红杉幼树长在一起。世界上的红杉树数目也不多，可以称他们为“植物熊猫”，所以红杉树的生命是可贵的！

人，作为大自然的主载，寿命虽然不会太长，但是在这不长的时间里，我们又做了些什么呢？保尔曾经说过：人，最宝贵的是生命。生命对每个人只有一次。这仅有的一次生命应当怎样度过呢？每当回忆往事的时候，能够不为虚度年华而悔恨，不因碌碌无为而羞耻；在临死的时候，他能够说：“我得整个生命和全部精力，都已经献给了世界上最壮丽的事业——为人类解放而进行的斗争。”是啊，人们最宝贵的是生命，但人们却往往不珍惜他，难道，自然的主宰，地球上最智慧的生物，连一直小小的蝴蝶都不如？

生命的呼吁是强烈的，在这生命里仅有的一段时间里，应该抓紧时间学习让自己的后半生过得有滋有味，让自己的名字载入史册！

One day, cat is in the basket. It‘s very lazy. It is sleeping. Now the cat‘s food is beside the cat. One mouse is very hungry. It is eating the cat‘s food. The cat‘s food is so yummy.

The cat wakes up. He is behind the mouse. He wants to catch the mouse. So,he is chasing the mouse. The mouse is afraid. He jumps onto the door. But, the door is high. The cat can‘t catch the mouse. The mouse is under the chair now. It is running.The cat still can‘t catch the mouse. The mouse runs fast. It runs into the hole. The hole is small. But, the cat is big. It can‘t go into the hole. So, the cat is angry and tired. It is crying. It‘s very sad. But the mouse is very happy!

【导语】英语写作是中考中检测学生语言应用能力的最重要部分。提高中考写作水平，需要有效的训练。下面关于英语作文的写作方法，一起来阅读下文吧!

学生写作时，如果语句平平，只选用一些普通的、直截了当的词，那么，这样写出来的文章根本没有可阅读行，就像是一碗没有油盐酱醋面条一样，让人提不起一点精神和看下去的欲望，呆板、单调，没有可读性。如果一篇文章要让读者有可读性、有深度，同学们更应该掌握一些高级点词和语句来装饰你的文章，突出这篇文章的彩头，使文章增添文采，给读者以不一样的感受。具体方法可以参照下面的语句：

1. 画龙点睛，一篇文章的开头很重要。

在通常情况下，英语句子的排列方式为“主语+谓语+宾语”，即主语一般都会在谓语前面。但若根据情况适当改变句子的开头方式，比如在文章的开始的时候写一些倒状语句或以状语为起始语句的开头，这样子的文章更具表现力和感染力。如：

(1) There stands an old temple at the top of the hill.

→ At the top of the hill there stands an old temple.

在小山顶上有一座古庙。

(2) You can do it well only in this way.

→ Only in this way can you do it well.

只有这样你才能把它做好。

(3) A young woman sat by the window.

→ By the window sat a young woman.

窗户边坐着一个年轻妇女。

2. 避免重复使用同一词语

为了使表达更生动，更富表现力，同学们在写作时应尽量避免重复使用同一词语来表示同一意思，尤其是一些老生常谈的词语。如有的同学一看到“喜欢”二字，就会立刻想起like，事实上，英语中表示类似意思的词和短语很多，如 love, enjoy, prefer, appreciate, be fond of, care for等。如：

I like reading while my brother likes watching television.

→ I like reading while my brother enjoys watching television.

我喜欢看书，而我的兄弟却喜欢看电视。

3. 合理使用省略句

合理恰当地使用省略句，不仅可以使文章精练、简洁，而且会使文章更具文采和可读性。如：

(1) He may be busy. If he’s busy, I’ll call later. If he is not busy, can I see him now?

→ He may be busy. If so, I’ll call later. If not, can I see him now?

他可能很忙，要是这样，我以后再来拜访。要是不忙，我现在可以见他吗?

(2) If the weather is fine, we’ll go. If it is not fine, we’ll not go.

→ If the weather is fine, we’ll go. If not, not.

如果天气好，我们就去；如果天气不好，我们就不去了。

(3) She could have applied for that job, but she didn’t do so.

→ She could have applied for that job, but she didn’t.

她本可申请这份工作的，但她没有。

4. 适当运用非谓语结构

非谓语结构通常被认为是一种高级结构，适当运用非谓语结构，会给人一种熟练驾驭语言的印象。如：

(1) When he heard the news, they all jumped for joy.

→ Hearing the news, they all jumped for joy.

听了这消息他们都高兴得跳了起来。

(2) As I didn’t know her address, I wasn’t able to get in touch with her.

→ Not knowing her address, I wasn’t able to get in touch with her.

由于不知道她的地址，我没法和她联系。

(3) As he was born into a peasant family, he had only two years of schooling.

→ Born into a peasant family, he had only two years of schooling.

他出生农民家庭，只上过两年学。

5. 结合使用长句与短句

在英语写作中，过多地使用长句或过多地使用短句都不好。正确的做法是，根据实际情况在文章中交替使用长句与短语，使文章显得错落有致，这样不仅使文章在形式上增加美感，而且使文章读起来铿锵有力。如：

At noon we had a picnic lunch in the sunshine. Then we had a short rest. Then we began to play happily. We sang and danced. Some told stories. Some played chess.

→ At noon we had a picnic lunch in the sunshine. After a short rest, we had great fun singing and dancing, telling jokes and playing chess.

中午我们晒着太阳吃野餐。休息一会儿后，我们唱的唱歌，跳的跳舞，还有的讲笑话、下棋，大家玩得很开心。

6. 适当使用短语代替单词

(1) He has decided to be a teacher when he grows up.

→ He has made up his mind to be a teacher when he grows up.

他已决定长大了当老师。

(2) He doesnt like music.

→ He doesnt care much for music.

他不大喜欢音乐。

(3) He told me that the question was now under discussion.

→ He told me that the question was now being discussed.

他告诉我问题现正正在讨论中。

7. 恰当套用某些固定表达

(1) He was very tired. He couldn’t walk any farther.

→ He was too tired to walk any farther.

他太累了，不能再往前走了。

(2) The film was very interesting. Both the teachers and the students liked it.

→ The film was so interesting that both the teachers and the students liked it.

这电影很有趣，学生和老师都很喜欢。

(3) Your son is old. He can look after himself now.

→ Your son is old enough to look after himself now.

你的儿子已经长大，可以自己照顾自己了。

8. 尽量使句子带点“洋味”

(1) Dont worry. Be bold and try it, and youll learn it soon.

→Dont worry. Just go for it, and youll get it soon.

别担心，大胆试一试，你很快就会学会的。

(2) Thank you for playing with us.

→Thank you for sharing the time with us.

谢谢你陪我玩。

9. 综合使用各类所谓的“高级”结构

(1) Now everyone knows the news. I think Jim must have let it out.

→ Now everyone knows the news. I think it must have been Jim who has let it out.

现在人人都知道这消息了，我想一定是吉姆把它泄露出去的。

(2) We had to stand there to catch the offender.

→ What we had to do was (to) stand there, trying to catch the offender.

我们所能做的只是站在那儿，设法抓住违章者。

(3) If her pronunciation is not better than her teacher’s, it is at least as good as her teacher’s.

→ Her pronunciation is as good as, if not better than, her teacher’s.

如果她的语音不比她的老师好的话，至少也不会比她老师的差。

10. 适当使用名言警句点缀

在写作时根据实际情况恰当地用上一两句名言警句来点缀文章，不仅使文章显得有深度、有智慧，而且会让文章在评分中上一个“得分档次”。如：

(1) As the proverb says, “Where there is a will, there is a way.” Though you fail this time, you needn’t lose heart. As long as you work hard and stick to your dream, you will succeed one day.

(2) There is a proverb goes like this “Life isn’t a bed of roses.” It is ture that it is likely for everyone to meet problems and difficulties in life.

(3) In the modern world, more and more people live alone, which is not so good for our life. It is better for us to make more friends and enjoy friendship. Just as a proverb says, “A near friend is better than a far-dwelling kinsman.”

下面是由小编收集的关于初中英语写作的基础，欢迎阅读。

一、找到学生写作中存在的问题

1.汉语思维的影响。学生在写作中经常用汉语思维，忽略了英汉语序之间是有差别的，导致出现了大量的式英语，尽管洋洋洒洒一大篇，却没有得分点。

2.词或词组的用法及搭配出现错误。如enjoy，finish等单词后面只能接v-ing形式;“forget to do”和“forget doing”在意思上存在着显著的差异等。学生在做选择题或用所给词的适当形式填空时，大多数学生能做对，但在作文中，学生往往忽略了其用法，出现了不必要的错误。

3.时态、语态的构成及使用错误。例如，一般过去时的否定句中，助动词didn’t后的动词用原形，而完成时的句子中往往用动词的过去分词，在这方面，学生的拼写容易出现错误。

4.单词的拼写错误，标点使用不当，不注意大小写，遗漏冠词，介词的误用等。

5.结构松散。关联词的使用可使上下句和段落合理衔接，承上启下，使表达合乎逻辑，同时使文章结构严谨、紧凑，部分考生的作文虽然内容和语言还不错，但是由于过于执着于表格所给内容的顺序，没有进行灵活的处理，整篇文章看起来就象是句子翻译，并且句与句之间关系松懈，缺乏连接，以至于文章毫无流畅、优美之感。

二、如何培养学生英语写作能力

1.从单词入手。单词是英语学习的基础，单词过不了关，写作就无从谈起，因为单词是写作的基本单位。但是单词记忆又是学生学习英语的最薄弱环节，因此我们必须时刻告诫学生，单词的学习过程，实际上就是人与遗忘作斗争的过程，要长期坚持下去。 志和必胜的信心。

2.由“句式”到“段落”的训练阶段。从七年级开始就对学生进行书写小段落的训练，做到口笔同步。随着教学的不断深入，写作内容也不断丰富，八年级就要注意段落中的时态差异、句型变化以及过渡句的使用等。到了九年级就要注意文章的体裁、格式、写作方法、复句的正确性以及中外文化的差异性。

3.课前几分钟进行Free Talk。学生可以准备谜语、笑话、小故事、即兴演讲等。之后向听的学生进行提问，其他学生只有认真听才能回答出问题。Free Talk为学生提供了很好的实践机会。

4.在课堂上，我们要注重听说的训练，给学生提供大量的口语练习材料，从句子到对话，从对话到文章，以培养学生的语感。同时，加强写的训练，利用所学的句型大量翻译句子，使学生能够真正做到举一反三。此外，还要让学生在练习时注意区分英汉语序的不同。

5.要求学生多写多练。教师按照每个单元呈现的重点内容为学生规定文题或写作范围，指导学生写一些代表性的文章，并结合学生比较优秀的作文进行讲评，取其精华，去其糟粕，完成一篇优秀的范文。使学生在讲评的过程中领略这些文章的优缺点，教会学生如何自己修改作文，并将范文抄写在固定的作文本上，不断积累，并随知识的不断扩展对已写的文章根据需要不断进行修改或扩充，使其更加完美。

6.加强背诵。看了好文章，不单是理解就够了，还应该在理解的基础上多多背诵，才能达到融会贯通、据为已有的效果。英语宜多诵多背，把一些句型、短语，一些文章的片段或全篇，背得滚瓜烂熟，让这些材料在你的脑袋里扎根，当你要用的时候，它们便会而然地冒出来。背诵可以培养正确使用语言的习惯，增强语感，这样就可以避免生搬硬套地写一些式的。加强背诵能变难为易，变费力为省力，能有效地帮助学生提高写作能力。现在背诵和熟记一些语言材料，对中学生来说将会受用无穷。

7.通过缩写和改写课文，培养学生的概括能力。缩写课文会激励学生去认真钻研课文内容，有助于加深学生对课文的理解，提高学生归纳和进行简要表达的能力。缩写课文一般应该用自己的话来写，不能只停留在拼凑原文的词句上。这样既可以使学生熟练掌握英语表达方法，也是对知识进行再创造的一个过程。
