Health is far more important than wealth and wisdom. Good health enables us to enjoy our life and achieve what we hope for in our career. On the contrary, poor health tends to deprive us of our interest in everything around us. How to stay healthy concerns everyone, though we have advanced medicine. When we discuss this, some fundamental principles should be brought in mind.

Generally speaking, shopping online offers lots of advantages with its convenience the most prominent. There are many commodities on the internet where you can search whatever you want.

However, everything has two sides. You can not see the products or check their qualities and some of the sellers on the Internet is not so honest. And, for those who enjoys shopping around different stores, shopping online perhaps will make them boring.

Online Shopping

There are many new ways of shopping,and online shopping is one of them.

Online shopping has several advantages. First ,you can shop at any time. Second,to shop on the Internet you only need a computer and a mouse .Third,you can compare the prices of the same products and save money.You can also receive it anywhere in the world at any time!

But shopping on the Internet also has some disadvantages.Paying over the Internet isn’t always safe.You can’t see the product or try the clothes on.

I think our life is changing because of online shopping .One day no one will go to the shops any more,because you’ll be able to buy almost anything on the Internet.

Lets take a look at the weather in Shanxi Province for the next 24 hours.Taiyuan would be cloudy at the time with the temperature from eighteen to twenty-eight.A strong wind would reach Datong, which could cause much rain,The temperature would be sixteen to twenty-six.Yangquan would be sunny with the highest temperature of thirty degree. Linfen would be windy and its temperature would be twenty-three to thirty-two.We would have a sunny and hot day in Yuncheng.Its temperature would stay between twenty-eight to thirty-four.

When it comes to November 11, what’s on your mind? Well, as to the old generations, it’s only an ordinary day; however, the young generations will consider it as the Singles’ Day as well as the on-line shopping carnival. In fact, on November 11th, 2013, Tmall and Taobao (the biggest Chinese online shopping platform) has sold out more than 35 billion Yuan goods, this data has astonished the media at home and abroad. Apparently, people have more interests on cyber shopping than spend the night with their single friends. Some home media even suggest that November 11th should be the Chinese on-line shopping carnival.

当人们提到11月11日，你想到了什么?对于老一辈的人来说，这一天和平常一样;然而，对于年轻人来说，这天不仅仅是“光棍节”，也是网络购物狂欢节。事实上，在今年的双11，天猫和淘宝(中国最大的网络购物平台)卖出了价值高达350多亿元的商品，这一数据惊呆了国内外的媒体。显而易见，大家对网络购物的热情超出了与单身好友共度“光棍”节的兴趣。有些国内的媒体甚至建议每年的11月11日应该是中国的网络购物狂欢节。

Comparing with the traditional shopping, the cyber shopping has more distinguish features, which quite fit the young generations’ taste. People do not need to go outside, just click their mouse, the goods will be home. The best part is you can do it anywhere, anytime. All you need is a credit card. What we can predict in the future is that on-line shopping is not going to fade away, instead, it will boost like the mushrooms after spring rains.

和传统的购物相比，网络购物有着更为明显的特点，这更符合年轻人的口味。人们不需要外出，只需点击一下鼠标，商品就会送到家。最棒的是你可以在任何时间任何地点进行购物。你只需一张信用卡。我们可以预测到在将来，网购不会淡出我们的生活，它就像雨后春笋，不断增长。

With the rapid development of the Internet and the increasing needs of goods, online

shopping of its convenience is the best choice in our fast-paced life.

When we approach online shopping, our first problem is whether it could guarantee our benefit. In one setting, products bought by us are far away from the description of sellers. They are sometimes of poor quality. However, it is not the worst matter. There has the way to avoiding such issues that we should keep calm and read comments written by other customers. It is not rational that buy is in haste, repent at leisure. In another setting, our individual information is exposed in the Internet. The exposition may stir our peaceful life into a mess. A cheater will take advantage of our information to open an account and make an overdraft. Money will not be sent to us but a bill will, thus we will be in high debt.

No doubt, there are some leaks of online shopping. But if we are enough careful, we

would enjoy the shopping online.

In recent years our life is becoming better andbetter. But our environment

is becoming worse and worse. It’s very bad for ourlife. Now many people have

air-conditioners and cars, they produce (give off )waste gas. More and more

trees are being cut down. There are so much sand onthe earth (leaving only sand

) . We often see factories pour waste into riversor lakes. Water in the river is

quite dirty. We haven’t enough clean water todrink in cities. Now we are in

danger. It’s very necessary and important toprotect the environment well. I

think if everyone tries his best to protect theenvironment, the world will

become much more beautiful , and our life will bebetter and better .

.It was the first day of our summer holiday.All of us were very happy.Why?Because we have one month to do things we love to do.We are free.Although we have some homework.But we can finish them in several days.And the rest time we can make good use of.We have been very tired after hard studying.I will have a good rest.

The Great Wall is the symbol and pride of China,and it is famous all over the world.

But,do you know about it?Let me tell you something about it.The Great Wall was first built during the Qin Dynasty,which was the beginning of the Feudal Society of China.Hower,it was not what it is now.It was very short.The following dynasties continued to build it It became longer and longer and finally reached to about 5000 kilometres,winding from the Shanhai Pass,north-east of China to the Jiayu Pass,north-west China.

中考英语作文：Shopping on the Internet

With the development of the Internet and the popularization of computers, shopping on the Internet has become a commonplace in our life. Here consumers can buy almost everything they need.

Shopping on the Internet has a lot of advantages, of which the most important is perhaps its convenience. People dont have to waste a lot of their energy and precious time to go from one shop to another to choose the commodities they like. This is especially desirable to the old, the sick and the busy people who cannot go to the shops in person. The goods come in all shapes, sizes and colors on the Internet. All they need to do is to sit in front of their computers and click the mouses. The commodities they order will be delivered to them promptly.

However, shopping on the Internet also has its disadvantages. The first disadvantage is that the consumers cant see the goods or try them on personally. Sometimes, the real goods may not be the same as what they have seen on the computer. The second disadvantage is that some shops on the Internet are not registered. They will never deliver anything to you after they get the money from you. Once cheated, you will find that you have nowhere to go to complain.

中考英语作文：网上购物

随着互联网的发展和电脑的普及，网上购物已成为我们生活中司空见惯的事情了。消费者在这里几乎可以买到所有他们需要的东西。

网上购物有很多优点，其中最重要的也许是它的方便。人们不必浪费了很多精力和宝贵的时间去从一个商店到另一个选择，他们喜欢的商品。这是可取的是老人，病人和忙碌的人们谁不能亲自去商店。商品的形状，大小和颜色在互联网上。所有他们需要做的是坐在电脑前，点击鼠标。他们的商品订单将交付给他们及时。

但是，网上购物也有其缺点。第一个不利因素是，消费者不能看到商品或亲自试穿他们。有时候，真正的货物不同他们所看到的电脑上得。第二个缺点是，一些商店在互联网上没有登记。一旦骗了，你会发现，你已经无处可去抱怨。

中考英语作文带翻译：网上购物(Shopping on the Internet)，以供各位同学们呢参考，在学习英语作文的时候，也多注意网上购物的利弊!

因为人的记忆力有选择啊，有的人天生对语言天生敏感，所以记得就快，有的人对历史敏感，记忆历史就比别人快。所以人的记忆力不能一概而论，这是我多年学习的经验，和个人理解。

第一，你不要把英语单词当成中文的象形文字来记，中文的记忆有形象关系，但是单词时无意义的字母排序，背得时候一定要理解英语的发音规律，先要记没个单词的发音，有的发音如tioneror什么的你一定发现了几个字母组合法特定的音，按发音记！

有时候宁肯先记发音！

因为有时候，你甚至能根据发音，你自己就能写出来，何必要背。其实英语的字母单词，不是很规律的，不想拼音的，但还是有一定的规律。

其实背英语单词，不能死记是真的，但是一定要持之以恒，首先要有心理准备，要有自信。

你背英语单词的时候可以边默读便用笔在一张纸上写，就是随便写一些，主要是加深印象。

我的习惯是第一次背时先写5遍/单词，隔天写3遍/单词。过一段时间再重复。这样记虽然慢，但是很扎实。

而且还要注意，背单词应该背词典，就是你背一个词的形式，比如名词，最好翻阅词典，把其他的形式也给背过。这样看起来，似乎比较费脑子，实际上我认为，这样无形中很快，因为你背单词就是要用在阅读上，这样背的话既实用又能无形中体会出英语的变形规律，以后就会背的很快乐。

英语背单词，实际取决于你已经背的单词量。

不是英语专业的人，但是愿意分享我的经验，希望你能背得越来越轻松。

I have a white cat. it is a present from my mother on my birthday. it’s very beautiful. i call it mimi.

mimi is very naughty. she likes to play with me. she often runs here and there and likes running after something. mimi’s favourite game is playing with balls, ropes and stones. i love it very much. sometimes, mimi is very gentle. she likes to wash her face and doesn’t play with me. after lunch, mimi often lies on the sofa to sleep. when i go home, mimi often jumps onto my knees. i like to give a bath to mimi.

oh, my baby the cat brings me much happiness. we are good friends. i love mimi.

Throughout the millennia, students of all ages in China have had to endure the miseries of learning by rote. Teachers have stifled creativity in the pursuit of the accumulation of facts, and parents have forced children to spend mind-numbing hours cramming for exams. But for the past year, the government has been experimenting with what could amount to revolutionary changes in Chinas classrooms. The aim is to make education more pleasant, more useful and, above all, to challenge students to think for themselves.

What has prompted the reforms is a belated recognition that Chinas education system is failing to produce enough innovative thinkers. In addition, students are deeply unhappy. A survey conducted by the Education Ministry five years ago found more than 80% of students disliked school. Dropout rates have been rising in rural areas—partly for economic reasons but also because of the stultifying atmosphere of their classrooms. Exam pressures frequently lead to suicides. According to a survey last year among senior secondary-school students and university freshmen in one area, more than 50% had considered killing themselves.

Several other countries in East Asia, including Japan, South Korea and Taiwan, are grappling with similar problems. But the implications of Chinas reform efforts are particularly profound. Chinas traditional education methods are ideally suited to a political culture that requires citizens to submit blindly to authority. By encouraging students to question their teachers and regard them as equals (even official literature now talks of fostering a “democratic” atmosphere in classrooms), China could be ushering in a new kind of relationship between the rulers and the ruled.

整个几千年,在中国所有年龄段的学生不得不忍受苦难的死记硬背。老师扼杀创造力的追求事实的积累,和家长迫使孩子花的小时死记硬背的考试。但在过去的一年里,政府一直在尝试什么革命性的变化在中国的教室。目的是使教育更愉快、更有用,最重要的是,挑战学生独立思考。

什么促使改革是一个迟来的承认,中国的教育系统是无法产生足够的创新的思想家。此外,学生感到非常不满。五年前教育部进行的一项调查发现,超过80%的学生不喜欢学校。农村辍学率一直在上升的经济原因,还因为愚蠢的教室的气氛。经常考试压力导致自杀。去年的一项调查显示,在高级中学学生和大学新生在一个地区,超过50%的人认为是自杀。

其他几个国家在东亚,包括日本、韩国和台湾,也面临着类似的问题。但中国的改革努力的影响尤为深刻。中国传统的教育方法是适合一个政治文化,需要公民提交盲目权威。通过鼓励学生质疑老师和把他们视为等于(甚至现在官方文学对话培养“民主”的气氛中在教室),中国可能成为引领一种新的统治者和被统治者之间的关系。

My mother is the loveliest person in the world. She Ioves her children very much and is always kind and gentle to us. Every mother is kind to her children but my mothcrs kindness to us is unlike others.

She never gets angry and never loses her temper. When we are naughty and do not listen to her words, she truly pretends to be angry and walks away. She will come back to us later and asks whether we like to be good boys and good girls again. She is so gentle and patient to us.

My mother is busy all day. She cooks for us, washes our clothes and also teaches us to do our homework. We all love mad respect our dear mother.

[初一英语作文：我的妈妈

Last night, I watched a tennis game, it was the US open, because there was

a Chinese female player came to the semi-final, so I stayed up to watched the

game. Unluckily, she was injured twice, though she still wanted to finish the

game, her body situation did not allow her to do so. Her insistence moved so

many audience, they gave her the biggest applause.

The power of insistence is great, it will help you set free your potential

and keep move on. Just for the players, they will face all kinds of incidences

now and then, but the will to insist will make them finish the game. Sometimes,

people win the game not because of their excellent skills, but their strong

will. Those who can stick on to the final line will win people’s applause.

What’s more, when people insist to finish the game, it is the respect that

they show to their opponents. Their spirit deserves people’s applause.

Insistence is a merit, we should keep it, no matter what we do, we must remember

to insist.
