那是一个阳光明媚的中午，我背着书包正准备过一条斑马路，我见红灯在闪闪发亮就停住了脚步。只见对面有一位盲人老爷爷，他穿着一身有些破烂的衣服和一双又脏又烂的鞋，拄着一根歪歪扭扭的拐杖。对于我们来说过马路是一件非常简单的事，但对于这位盲人老爷爷来说是一个具有挑战性的“生死战”绿灯亮了。那位老爷爷一瘸一拐地走向马路。其它人见了装做一副弱无其事的样子。而我见绿灯亮了，但又放心不下那位盲人老爷爷，爱心驱使着我。最后，我还是帮助老爷爷过了马路并且把他送回了家。在回家途中我感到非常快乐、踏实。

"Blaspheme books, line miles." I thank the book guide me swim world; I appreciate the book gave me a rich imagination; I was moved, book another one let me understand a truth.

“渎万卷书，行万里路。”我感谢着，书引导我畅游世界;我感激着，书给予我丰富的想象;我感动着，书让我明白一个又一个真理。

小时候，我就与美丽的白雪公主、可爱的七个小矮人、善良的牧鹅公主、法力无边的金鱼交上了朋友。在那个现实与想象分不清的年龄，童话教会了我去爱他人，爱世界。走出天真烂漫的童话时代，一本本生动有趣、引人深思的名著如磁铁般吸引了我，这对于我这个读书如饥似渴的学生来说，惊喜程度不亚于哥伦布发现新大陆。名著中保尔·柯察金的钢铁般坚毅的精神让我为之折服，海明威描写西班牙斗牛的场面使我为之震撼……

记得有一天晚上，我在看《美文欣赏》。每看完一个故事，我都要停下来想一想，把自己的感想记在笔记本上，就这样不知不觉看到深夜10点多。如果不是妈妈催我睡，我还会继续看，因为每一篇美文都吸引着我。读书给我带来无尽的快乐，如果认真读书，便会走出自己的心灵，进入另一个心灵，与另一个心灵沟通、交谈。读书也是一种对生活的感悟。读杜甫的诗使人感悟人生的辛酸，读鲁迅的文章使人认清社会的黑暗，读冰心的文章让我体会到爱与希望……每一本书都是一个朋友，教会我们如何去看待生活。

在我眼里，书像一杯可口的果汁，读书就是在酣畅地解渴;书还像一片诱人的面包，读书就是在美美地咀嚼;书更像一块香浓的巧克力，读书就是在慢慢地品味……在无穷无尽的书籍中，我将继续读书的故事。

My father is a tall man with a pair of glasses. Everyone says he is a kind-hearted man. He often helps his neighbours and some strangers whom he doesnt know at all. He has really done a lot for others. I dont like him to do so because I think it has taken him too much time. When I discourage him, he always says with a smile,"The world needs warm hearts."

My father loves his family, and loves his work even better. In the company, he is called "workaholic" He spends most of his time working, and often forgets to have meals or to go to bed.As a result,he doesnt enjoy good health.

My father likes reading in his spare time. He told me reading was very interesting. I became interested in reading little by little. I like books, because they help me in many ways.

My father has a bad habit he likes smoking very much. I hate it. See, the house is full of smoke. I know its bad for his health as well as mothers and mine. I advise him to give up smoking. Im sure he will follow my advice some day.

Such is my father. I am proud of having such a good father.

我的爸爸个子高高的，戴着一副眼镜。大家都说他是个好心肠的人。他经常帮邻居排忧解难，对于一些他压根不认识的陌生人，他也总是尽力相助。他为别人真是付出了许多许多。我不愿意他这么做，因为这花费了他太多的时间。每当我劝阻他时，爸爸总是笑着说：“世界需要热心肠嘛!”

爸爸热爱家庭，更注重事业，公司里的人都叫他“工作狂”。他把大部分时间都用于工作，为工作他常常废寝忘食。过度的劳累使他的健康状况欠佳。

爸爸闲暇时爱读书。他告诉我，读书很有趣。我渐渐地对读书产生了兴趣。我爱上了书，因为书对我帮助很大。

爸爸有个坏习惯——太爱吸烟。我不喜欢他抽烟。瞧，家里充满了烟味。我知道吸烟有害他的健康，对我和妈妈也有害无益。我建议他戒烟。我相信总有一天他会这么做的。

这就是我的爸爸，我为有这样的好爸爸而自豪。

In the English Reading Week, one of my classmates recommended a quote to us, which goes like this: “Your future depends on many things, but mostly on you.”

在英语阅读周，我的一个同学推荐了一个报价给我们，这是这样的：“你的未来取决于许多事情，但主要是在你。”

As far as I’m concerned, I completely agree with the view. Of course, our future depends on many things such as our living environment, opportunities, luck, others’ help and etc. But it is we ourselves that determine our future. Our positive attitude, our determination, our confidence and our sense of discipline are the keys to our future.

就我而言，我完全同意这一观点。当然，我们的未来取决于我们的生活环境、机会、运气、别人的帮助等，但我们自己决定了我们的未来。我们积极的态度、决心、信心和纪律是我们未来的关键。

Madame Curie was a good example to us. In her times, women were not admitted to university in her motherland, Poland, so she was forced to leave her homeland and studied in France. She often said: we should believe every one of us can do something and above all we should believe in ourselves. It was her confidence that made her discover radium and later win the Nobel Prize. So I firmly hold the belief that our future is in our hands.

居里夫人是我们的好榜样。在她的时代，妇女在她的祖国，波兰不承认，所以她被迫离开她的祖国，在法国学习。她常说：“我们应该相信我们每个人都能做些什么，首先我们应该相信自己。是她的信心，使她发现镭，后来赢得了诺贝尔奖。所以我坚信我们的未来是在我们手中。

if we have a book ,we will not be felling of being longly

When Im free or in trouble, I always take out a book and read quietly. In no time, Ive put my heart into it so that Ill forget all the troubles. Its in this way that Ive formed the habit of reading in any time.

Little boys as I was, I was interest in picture books and storybooks. I was struck by them. No sooner had I entered the middle school than I began to read novel, plays, essays and so on. I found I could get much from them. Little by little I took great interest in literature and last term I won the first prize in the composition contest among middle-school students in Zhe Jiang.

Reading “The Emperors New Clothes”, I had to let out a burst of laughter over his fool. “The Little Match Girl” couldnt keep me from crying for her misery. “ Robinson Crusoe” took me into a strange world full of danger. And I was also deeply impressed by Helen Kellers patience and perseverance… Besides these, books also tell me other thing -how to be a man and how to tell the difference between right and wrong. In a word, good books can make me know what I didnt before. So I think of a good book as my best friend.

Ill never forget this famous saying,“ Good books are best friends who never turn their backs upon us.”

如果我们有一本书,我们不会感觉的孤独

当我免费或陷入困境时,我总是拿出一本书,安静地阅读。在没时间,我把我的心放在它,这样我就会忘记所有的烦恼。通过这种方式,我在任何时候形成阅读的习惯。

小男孩在我,我感兴趣的照片书和故事书。我被他们。我走进中学比我刚开始阅读小说、剧本、散文等等。我发现我能得到多少。渐渐地我带着极大的兴趣在文学和上学期我在作文比赛中得了第一名哲江中学学生。

阅读“皇帝的新衣”,我不得不发出一阵笑声在他的傻瓜。“卖火柴的小女孩”不能阻止我哭她的痛苦。“鲁宾逊漂流记”带我到一个陌生的世界充满了危险。我也深深打动了海伦·凯勒的耐心和毅力…除了这些,书也告诉我其他的事情——一个男人以及如何区分对与错。总之,好的书可以让我知道我没有之前。所以我认为一本好书是最好的朋友。

我永远不会忘记这个著名的说:“好书是最好的朋友对我们从不转背。”

There were three of them. There were four of us, and April lay on the campsite and on the river, a mixture of dawn at a damp extreme and the sun in the leaves at cajole. This was Deer Lodge on the Pine River in Ossipee, New Hampshire, though the lodge was naught but a foundation remnant in the earth. Brother Bentleys father, Oren, had found this place sometime after the First World War, a foreign affair that had seriously done him no good but he found solitude abounding here. Now we were here, post World War II, post Korean War, Vietnam War on the brink. So much learned, so much yet to learn.

Peace then was everywhere about us, in the riot of young leaves, in the spree of bird confusion and chatter, in the struggle of pre-dawn animals for the start of a new day, a Cooper Hawk that had smashed down through trees for a squealing rabbit, yap of a fox at a youngster, a skunk at rooting.

We had pitched camp in the near darkness, Ed LeBlanc, Brother Bentley, Walter Ruszkowski, myself. A dozen or more years we had been here, and seen no one. Now, into our campsite deep in the forest, so deep that at times we had to rebuild sections of narrow road (more a loggers path) flushed out by earlier rains, deep enough where we thought wed again have no traffic, came a growling engine, an old solid body van, a Chevy, the kind I had driven for Frankie Pike and the Lobster Pound in Lynn delivering lobsters throughout the Merrimack Valley. It had pre-WW II high fenders, a faded black paint on a body youd swear had been hammered out of corrugated steel, and an engine that made sounds too angry and too early for the start of day. Two elderly men, we supposed in their seventies, sat the front seat; felt hats at the slouch and decorated with an assortment of tied flies like a miniature bandoleer of ammunition on the band. They could have been conscripts for Emilano Zappata, so loaded their hats and their vests as they climbed out of the truck.

"Mornin, been yet?" one of them said as he pulled his boots up from the folds at his knees, the tops of them as wide as a big mouth bass coming up from the bottom for a frog sitting on a lily pad. His hands were large, the fingers long and I could picture them in a shop barn working a primal plane across the face of a maple board. Custom-made, old elegance, those hands said.

"Barely had coffee," Ed LeBlanc said, the most vocal of the four of us, quickest at friendship, at shaking hands. "Weve got a whole pot almost. Have what you want." The pot was pointed out sitting on a hunk of grill across the stones of our fire, flames licking lightly at its sides. The pot appeared as if it had been at war, a number of dents scarred it, the handle had evidently been replaced, and if not adjusted against a small rock it would have fallen over for sure. Once, a half-hour on the road heading north, noting it missing, wed gone back to get it. When we fished the Pine River, coffee was the glue, the morning glue, the late evening glue, even though wed often unearth our beer from a natural cooler in early evening. Coffee, camp coffee, has a ritual. It is thick, it is dark, it is potboiled over a squaw-pine fire, it is strong, it is enough to wake the demon in you, stoke last evenings cheese and pepperoni. First man up makes the fire, second man the coffee; but into that pot has to go fresh eggshells to hold the grounds down, give coffee a taste of history, a sense of place. That means at least one egg be cracked open for its shells, usually in the shadows and glimmers of false dawn. I suspect thats where "scrambled eggs" originated, from some camp like ours, settlers rushing west, lumberjacks hungry, hoboes lobbying for breakfast. So, camp coffee has made its way into poems, gatherings, memories, a time and thing not letting go, not being manhandled, not being cast aside.

英语作文阅读：AnEmptyBox

Once upon a time, a man punished his 5-year-old daughter for using up the familys only roll of expensive gold wrapping paper. Money was tight, and he became even more upset when on Christmas Eve, he saw that the child had pasted the gold paper so as to decorate a shoebox to put under the Christmas tree.

Nevertheless, the next morning the little girl, filled with excitement, brought the gift box to her father and said, "This is for you, Daddy!"

As he opened the box, the father was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction.

But when he opened it, he found it was empty and again his anger flared. "Dont you know, young lady, " he said harshly, "when you give someone a present theres supposed to be something inside the package!"

The little girl looked up at him with tears rolling from her eyes and said: "Daddy, its not empty. I blew kisses into it until it was all full."

The father was crushed. He fell on his knees and put his arms around his precious little girl. He begged her to forgive him for his unnecessary anger.

An accident took the life of the child only a short time later. It is told that the father kept that little gold box by his bed for all the years of his life. Whenever he was discouraged or faced difficult problems he would open the box, take out an imaginary kiss, and remember the love of this beautiful child who had put it there.

In a very real sense, each of us as human beings have been given an invisible golden box filled with unconditional love and kisses from our children, family, friends and God.

There is no more precious possession anyone could hold.

英语作文阅读：HappinessEquateswithFun

I live in Hollywood. You may think people in such a glamorous, fun-filled place are happier than others. If so, you have some mistaken ideas about the nature of happiness.

Many intelligent people still equate happiness with fun. The truth is that fun and happiness have little or nothing in common. Fun is what we experience during an act. Happiness is what we experience after an act. It is a deeper, more abiding emotion.

Going to an amusement park or ball game, watching a movie or television, are fun activities that help us relax, temporarily forget our problems and maybe even laugh. But they do not bring happiness, because their positive effects end when the fun ends.

I have often thought that if Hollywood stars have a role to play, it is to teach us that happiness has nothing to do with fun. These rich, beautiful inpiduals have constant access to glamorous parties, fancy cars, expensive homes, everything that spells "happiness".

But in memoir after memoir, celebrities reveal the unhappiness hidden beneath all their fun: depression, alcoholism, drug addiction, broken marriages, troubled children, profound loneliness.

The way people cling to the belief that a fun-filled, pain-free life equates happiness actually diminishes their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equated with happiness, then pain must be equated with unhappiness. But, in fact, the opposite is true: More times than not, things that lead to happiness involve some pain.

As a result, many people avoid the very endeavors that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment, civic or charitable work, and self-improvement.

英语作文阅读：TodayisaGift

Two men, both seriously ill, occupied the same hospital room. One man was allowed to sit up in his bed for an hour each afternoon to help drain the fluid from his lungs. His bed was next to the room‘s only window. The other man had to spend all his time flat on his back. The men talked for hours on end.

They spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their involvement in the military service, where they had been on vacation. And every afternoon when the man in the bed by the window could sit up, he would pass the time by describing to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window. The man in the other bed began to live for those one-hour periods where his world would be broadened and enlivened by all the activity and color of the world outside.

The window overlooked a park with a lovely lake. Ducks and swans played on the water while children sailed their model boats. Young lovers walked arm in arm amidst flowers of every color of the rainbow. Grand old trees graced the landscape, and a fine view of the city skyline could be seen in the distance. As the man by the window described all this in exquisite detail, the man on the other side of the room would close his eyes and imagine the picturesque scene.

One warm afternoon the man by the window described a parade passing by. Although the other man couldn‘t hear the band - he could see it in his mind‘s eye as the gentleman by the window portrayed it with descriptive words.

Days and weeks passed. One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths only to find the lifeless body of the man by the window, who had died peacefully in his sleep. She was saddened and called the hospital attendants to take the body away.

As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the switch, and after making sure he was comfortable, she left him alone. Slowly and painfully, he propped himself up on one elbow to take his first look at the world outside. Finally, he would have the joy of seeing it for himself. He strained to slowly turn to look out the window beside the bed. It faced a blank wall.

The man asked the nurse what could have compelled his deceased roommate who had described such wonderful things outside this window. The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the wall. She said, "Perhaps he just wanted to encourage you."

英语作文阅读：IsPackingImportanttoYou

A young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealers showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.

As Graduation Day approached, the young man awaited signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautiful wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young mans name embossed in gold.

Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, "With all your money you give me a Bible?" He then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.

Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make the arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things.

When he arrived at his fathers house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his fathers important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago.

With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. It had a tag with the dealers name, the same dealer who had the sports car he had desired. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words… "PAID IN FULL".

How many times do we miss blessings because they are not packaged as we expected? I trust you enjoyed this. Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; but remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for. Sometimes we dont realize the good fortune we have or we could have because we expect "the packaging" to be different. What may appear as bad fortune may in fact be the door that is just waiting to be opened.

英语作文阅读：TheBabyEagle

Once upon a time there was a baby eagle living in a nest perched on a cliff overlooking a beautiful valley with waterfalls and streams, trees and lots of little animals, scurrying about enjoying their lives.

The baby eagle liked the nest. It was the only world he had ever known. It was warm and comfortable, had a great view, and even better, he had all the food and love and attention that a great mother eagle could provide. Many times each day the mother would swoop down from the sky and land in the nest and feed the baby eagle delicious morsels of food. She was like a god to him, he had no idea where she came from or how she worked her magic.

The baby eagle was hungry all the time, but the mother eagle would always come just in time with the food and love and attention he craved. The baby eagle grew strong. His vision grew very sharp. He felt good all the time.

Until one day, the mother stopped coming to the nest.

The baby eagle was hungry. "Im sure to die," said the baby eagle, all the time.

"Very soon, death is coming," he cried, with tears streaming down his face. Over and over. But there was no one there to hear him.

Then one day the mother eagle appeared at the top of the mountain cliff, with a big bowl of delicious food and she looked down at her baby. The baby looked up at the mother and cried "Why did you abandon me? Im going to die any minute. How could you do this to me?"

The mother said, "Here is some very tasty and nourishing food, all you have to do is come get it."

"Come get it!" said the baby, with much anger. "How?"

The mother flew away.

The baby cried and cried and cried.

A few days later, "Im going to end it all," he said. "I give up. It is time for me to die."

He didnt know his mother was nearby. She swooped down to the nest with his last meal.

"Eat this, its your last meal," she said.

The baby cried, but he ate and whined and whined about what a bad mother she was.

"Youre a terrible mother," he said. Then she pushed him out of the nest.

He fell.

Head first.

Picked up speed.

Faster and faster.

He screamed. "Im dying Im dying," he cried. He picked up more speed.

He looked up at his mother. "How could you do this to me?"

He looked down.

The ground rushed closer, faster and faster. He could visualize his own death so clearly, coming so soon, and cried and whined and complained. "This isnt fair!" he screamed.

Something strange happens.

The air caught behind his arms and they snapped away from his body, with a feeling unlike anything he had ever experienced. He looked down and saw the sky. He wasnt moving towards the ground anymore, his eyes were pointed up at the sun.

"Huh?" he said. "What is going on here!"

"Youre flying," his mother said.

"This is fun!" laughed the baby eagle, as he soared and ped and swooped.

In this modern materialistic world, the majority of people are in hot pursuit of material gains, and money is considered the most valuable thing of all, which, personally speaking, is quite superficial. As far as I am concerned,readingis much more valuable than anything else, for it can benefit us in many ways. The old saying, “to open a book is always beneficial” vividly shows how valuable reading is.

Firstly, it goes beyond doubt that reading is a very important way to gain knowledge. Reading is like travelling, the process of which enables you to experience the colorful world and enlarge your eyes scope. By reading history books, you can understand how a regime prospers or collapses, helping you draw useful lessons and develop more wisdom. By reading books of science, you can keep yourself informed in the field of scientific endeavors, thus appreciating how science creates wonders. In a word, reading can enrich your knowledge and get whatever information you need.

In addition, you can get mental encouragement from reading and improve yourself in all aspects. For instance, the stories of well-known people in books help turn an aimless person into an ambitious one, setting up a short or long-term goal for himself. If the daily troubles make you feel desperate, then you will be mentally stroked and encouraged by reading how famous people such as Beethoven made miracles in the face of insurmountable difficulties. Books are a great source of mental encouragement, giving you motives to move forward.

Finally, reading good books is one of the greatest pleasures in life. It increases our joy when we are in high spirits, and lessens our sorrow when we are discouraged. Reading will always bring us enjoyment and satisfaction. Good books also serve as gentle companions or faithful friends that will never betray us. While reading, we don’t feel lonely. Books are ready to give us whatever we need such as knowledge, friendship and encouragement.

To sum up, reading is undoubtedly beneficial to you. To open a book is like opening a door, through which you will enter a museum, where all man-made wonders and unique wisdoms are available for you to appreciate; to open a book is like opening a window, through which you can enjoy fresh air、blue sky and wonderful natural landscapes , making you feel refreshed

在这个现代唯物主义的世界,大多数人在炎热的追求物质财富,和金钱被认为是最有价值的东西的,就个人来说,是相当肤浅的。就我而言,读书比任何其他更有价值,因为它可以我们在很多方面获益。俗话说,“打开一本书总是有益”生动地展示了如何有价值的阅读。

首先,它超越怀疑阅读是一个非常重要的方式来获得知识。阅读是喜欢旅行的过程,使您体验到丰富多彩的世界,扩大你的眼睛。通过阅读历史书,你可以了解一个政权繁荣或崩溃,帮助你得出有用的经验和开发更多的智慧。通过科学的读书,可以让自己了解领域的科学努力,因此升值如何科学创造奇迹。总之,阅读可以丰富你的知识和得到任何你需要的信息。

此外,你可以得到精神的鼓励阅读和提高自己在各方面。例如,著名的人的故事书帮助把一个漫无目的的人变成一个雄心勃勃的人,为自己建立一个短期或长期目标。如果日常烦恼让你感到绝望,那么你将会精神上抚摸,鼓励通过阅读名人如贝多芬如何制造奇迹的不可逾越的困难。书是一个伟大的精神鼓励,给你动机前进。

最后,读好书是生活中最大的乐趣之一。它增加我们的快乐当我们情绪高涨,和减少我们的悲伤当我们气馁。阅读总是给我们带来快乐和满足。好书也作为温和的同伴或忠实的朋友,永远不会背叛我们。在阅读时,我们不感到孤独。书是准备给我们任何我们需要如知识、友谊和鼓励。

总之,阅读无疑是有益的。打开一本书就像打开一扇门,通过它你将进入博物馆,所有人造奇迹和独特的智慧可供你欣赏,打开一本书就像打开一个窗口,通过它你可以享受新鲜的空气,蓝色的天空和奇妙的自然景观,使你感到舒畅

从小到大，我接触最多的便是书。

经历了生机勃勃的春，骄阳似火的夏，落叶飘飞的秋，粉妆玉砌的冬，我从书中体会了更多的乐趣。

我最喜欢看的书是《二十四史》、《三国演义》这两本书。

每每翻开这两本书，我就情不自禁地陶醉其中，似乎自己就是那个人。读描写悲伤句子，我心中不由生出悲哀;描写景物的，我触景生情;描写开心之类的，我就傻乎乎地笑。

“滚滚长江冬逝水，浪花淘尽英雄。是非成败转头空。青山依旧在，几度夕阳红。”

“白发渔樵江渚上，惯看秋月春月。一壶浊酒喜相逢。古今多少事，都付笑谈中。”

这首词十分贴切描写了三国局势与情感，这十分让我哀从心生。

还有古诗、作文、故事都让我如此沉醉。学到的这些知识为我夺取了多种奖项，学到了语文书许多没有的知识。

有悲有喜，有生有色，有情有景，既修文化，又长见识，这就是读书的乐趣。
