Before the New Year’s Day, the Chinese people usually give their houses a good cleaning and on the last evening of the old year, all the members of a family will get together and have a big meal. On the first or second day of the new year, people usually go to visit their relatives and friends and give some lucky money to children.

一、充分准备，打好基础。

为了提高初一英语作文写作水平，平时应加强阅读，多背诵一些句形、段落甚至短文。俗话说：“读书破万卷，下笔如有神”，只有多读，多记，多背诵，才能出口成章，下笔成文。此外，写好初一英语作文还要掌握一些应用文体的写作方法，如书信、日记、通知等，它们大多有固定的格式。

二、认真审题，明确要求

在写初一英语作文的时候仔细看清写作要求和提示，分清材料的主次，接着确定体裁、格式和人物、地点等要素;最后确定时态，同时考虑相关的语态搭配用法。

三、遣词造句、表达规范

初一英语作文用词要恰当，不可逐句把提示翻译成英语。写作时，应尽量选用你最熟悉、最有把握的词和句型来表达思想。如果有些单词不会些，有些句型不会表达，可以设法绕开，用熟悉的同义词、同义短语或同义句来代替。要学会善于运用适当的关联词，如and, or, but, so，because, since等，以使初一英语作文行文逻辑紧密，自然流畅。

四、认真撰写，卷面整洁

初一英语考试中也会有初一英语作文题，如果时间允许，书面表达一定要先写草稿。在抄写入答题卷前，要先进行检查修改。首先检查所写内容是否切题;之后检查主题是否明确，表达方式是否恰当;最后检查所用时态、语态、人称是否符合要求，前后是否一致。

Environment Protection

Nowadays, peoples life has changed a lot with the development of modern technology and economy, which has put lots of negative effects on the environment.

Why this? Because, firstly, some factories are pouring wastes into rivers, lakes, seas and so forth; secondly, because of human activities, agreat number of plants and animals are losing their lives; thirdly, using modern machines and chemicals is bad for the environment. Besides these, there are a lot of human activities which have done or are doing harm to our surroundings.

Class is over. The students are jumping with joy, just like runaway horses. Look, some of them have left their seats and begin to play noisily. They are laughing and screaming from time to time. Some don’t leave their seats.

They are making use of the short time to play games. Sometimes they argue so seriously and sometimes they appear so polite. Others are sitting in their seats, as if they are thinking of something. Now and then they will stop to watch what others are doing. What an active ten minutes’ break it is!

We’ll study harder and make our countrry stronger and more beautiful.

A dream is to a man what wings are to a bird. With a dream in the deep

hearts core, a man is spontaneously driven to hitch his wagon to a star. A

dream is an inexhaustible source of energy that keeps our enthusiasm burning,

and kindles our desire to enhance our spiritual cultivation, refine our

character, and upgrade our quality of life. A life without a dream is like a

bird with broken wings, confined to a cage and oblivious of what lies beyond the

range of its vision. On the contrary, a man with a dream is like a warrior armed

with ambition, foresight and gallantry, daring to step into an unknown domain to

make a journey of adventure. It is dream that adds fullness, variety, and spice

to our life and makes it worth living. I have a dream. It is d dream that is

deeply rooted in human nature. I dream that one day people of all origins can

live in harmony and peace without being discriminated against or persecuted. The

bounty of the earth can be shared by every single human being. Mutual respect

will guarantee the existence and continuation of the diversity of customs and

cultures. Love, sympathy, and cooperation will alleviate the sufferings and

disasters inflicted upon our fellow men. Respect for basic human rights will put

an end to social injustices and evils. When my dream comes true, all men will be

truly equal, happy, and free.

就如万物不能没有太阳，鱼儿离不开水，我的生活也不能没有你——母爱。母爱是一道阳光，是一阵清风，是一片五彩缤纷的花海，让我在悲伤的时候有了依靠，在烦恼的时候有了诉说对象，在快乐的时候有人同我一起分享。

我五年级的时候，开始了盼望已久的游泳班。从练习游泳姿势开始，我一直非常努力。终于到了展示的那一天。我满怀信心地下了水，又一次感受到了水的温暖。教练让我们摘下游泳漂，慢慢地进行尝试。我自信地做着动作，手一摆一摆地向前游。“哎呀”，意外发生了。因为急于寻找妈妈的身影，我不小心呛水了。这一次呛得可真不轻，我小心翼翼地把脚踩到地上，一阵刺痛袭来，眼眶不仅热了起来。这时，我想起了妈妈那温暖，宽广的胸怀，和那句陪伴了我走过了很多困难的话：“宝贝，要相信自己，要坚强，遇事千万不能放弃，因为失败不可怕，逃避才可怕！”想到这，我忍着脚上的刺痛，勇敢的游了起来：两手一划，两腿用力向后蹬，身体竟奇迹般地慢慢上浮……

我向终点进行冲刺，不禁加快了速度。我脑海中再次浮现了母亲对我的期望和温暖的怀抱，以及那句经常在耳畔想起的话：“加油，加油，你要相信自己，努力超越自我，遇事不要害怕。”我怀着满心的温暖，看到了母亲的目光，目光中含着鼓励，鼓励中又不乏期待。我怀着热切的期盼和鼓励，向终点游去。

我成功了！却殊不知那成功的背后是谁的功劳。我的生活中不能没有你—包含着浓浓母爱的妈妈的鼓励。

Winter vacation one day, my mother came home from work. Just rushed into the door shout: "month, guess mother bring to you?" "It must be delicious." I answer without thinking. "No." Mother said, and took out a small box handed me from behind. I took the box curiously, cant wait to open a look, turned out to be a lively and clever bird. I took it, carefully looked at carefully.

This should be a just flying bird, corners of the mouth of the yellow is not faded. A taupe feather plump neat, small round eyes black light, looked around in horror.

Accidentally, the birds escape from my hand, toward the window, want to fly out? That a head hit the window and fell on the windowsill, but it still unwilling, stare blankly with wings to fly. I cant help but poor bird, I think, the bird should live in the bosom of nature, free to fly. So I said to mother: "mom, lets put the bird! See mom and dad, birds worry more afraid of ah." Mother looked at me with indecision, then use appreciation tone, said: "my son is grown up. Birds have given you, you have the final say." I thanked my mother happily, holding the bird ran downstairs.

Downstairs to the ground, I gently loosen the hands and the little bird "ceng" to fly to the sky, fly away quickly. I seem to see the bird to fly back to the flock, nestled in the father and the mother bird bird side, telling the story of todays experience, has a good boy...

寒假的一天，妈妈下班回家。一进门就兴冲冲地喊：“月月，猜妈妈给你带来什么?”“肯定是好吃的。”我不假思索地回答。“不对。”说着，妈妈从背后拿出一个小盒子递给我。我好奇地接过盒子，迫不及待地打开一看，原来是一只活泼机灵的小鸟。我小心翼翼地捧起它，仔细端详着。

这应该是一只刚刚会飞的小鸟，嘴角的嫩黄还未褪去。一身灰褐色的羽毛丰满整洁，一双圆溜溜的小眼睛乌黑光亮，惊恐地四下张望。

一不小心，小鸟从我手里挣脱开来，朝着窗户飞去，想要飞出去吧?没想到一头撞到窗玻璃，落在窗台上，可它仍然不甘心似的，扑楞着翅膀想要飞起来。我不禁可怜起小鸟来，我想，小鸟应该生活在大自然的怀抱里，自由自在地飞翔。于是，我对妈妈说：“妈妈，咱们把小鸟放了吧!看不到爸爸妈妈，小鸟多着急害怕呀。”妈妈惊疑地看着我，然后用欣赏的口吻说：“我的儿子长大了。小鸟已经给你了，你说了算。”我高兴地谢过妈妈，捧着小鸟飞快地跑下楼去。

来到楼下的空地上，我轻轻地松开双手，小鸟“噌”地飞向天空，很快地飞远了。我仿佛看见小鸟飞回了鸟群，依偎在鸟爸爸和鸟妈妈的身边，诉说着今天的经历，故事里有一位善良的少年……

在刚刚结束的期末考试里，我犯了很多不该犯的错误。于是我进行了自我反思。

首先是学习态度的反思。学习态度是决定学习成绩的重要因素。怎样评价你的学习态度是否端正呢?一是要看课堂上能否专心听讲，能否克制自己不做与学习无关的事情。二是能否自觉、独立、认真地完成作业，能否主动改正错题。三是在完成规定作业后能否主动复习、预习和进行课外学习。四

是在学习中遇到问题是否想办法解决。五是能否合理分配自己的时间。

其次是学习方法的反思。科学的学习方法可以收到事半功倍的效果，但科学高效的学习方法是需要学生不断摸索、总结的，特别是考试之后对各门功课的学习方法的总结，如文科一些需要背诵的内容，在什么时间，怎样背效率高，是抄背还是读背。

其三是单科差异的反思。不少学生对各门功课并不是同样感兴趣，往往会出现偏科现象，从而导致弱科太差，强科无效。这就需要在考试之后进行反思，哪些功课学得好，哪些还不够理想，成功经验是什么，失误的原因是什么。如果是自己的学习兴趣浓或是因为觉得这门课重要，就要想办法继续保持兴趣或提高对其他学科重要性的认识，树立能够学好自认为重要的功课的信心。其他成绩不理想的学科也应该一样重视，希望下次考试的成绩能有所提升。

时间的长河从我们身边缓缓慢地流过，在抚平我们伤口的同时，也冲淡了我们的许多记忆。可总有些事，是我们难以忘怀、也不愿忘却的，就比如说，在那个阳光明媚的中午……

还记得，那是一个匆匆忙忙的中午。放了学，我顶着一头烈日快步跑到公车站，才赶上公车。中午的时候，公共汽车上人的总是很多。上了车后，我像鱼儿一样在人群中来回穿梭，才找到一个可以够得着扶手的地方，连忙站稳扶好，才松了一口气。

公车启动了，但它行驶得有些莽撞，先来一个加速，让大家急忙站稳；紧接着前面遇上了堵车，于是猛地一刹车，吓得大家措手不及。我往车里望了望，看见人群中有一个年近七旬的老太太，因为个子比较矮，上车又晚，所以没能及时找着座位或是可以扶手的地方。公车上会儿开一会儿停，动作特别大，她便在惯性的作用下一会儿向前倒，一会儿朝后仰，摇摇晃晃，如同一个不倒翁，令人想笑，又觉得十分可怜。但是由于公车的粗鲁，没有人离开椅子或扶手去搀她一把，个个都生怕没扶到老太太，反而自己摔了个四脚朝天。

这可恶的公共汽车真会得寸进尺，开开停停的动作一次比一次厉害。老太太终于站不稳了，猛地向前栽去。“小心！”我禁不住闭上了自己的眼睛，不敢想象接下去发生的一幕……

当我再次睁开眼睛的时候，发现老太太并没有摔倒，而是被一双有力的大手搀扶住了。我急忙朝手的主人看去，原来是一位原本坐着的中年男子。只见他小心地扶着面带惊讶的老太太走到他的座位旁，轻轻地扶老太太坐下。老太太的惊讶立即化为感激，朝那个男子一个劲儿地致谢。那男子笑而不语，很快悄悄地下了车。

现在，我已经想不起那天那个中年男子的面貌，但我一直记得他搀扶老太太的动作，那温柔而不失礼貌的动作，触响了我内心深处的一根弦……

Mike is bad at English. Yesterday, he had an English test. He failed again.

He dared not tell his mother the low marks. On his way home, it rained heavily.

So he got a good idea. Why not take the paper as an umbrella? He just put the

paper on his head and began to run home. When he arrived home, the paper was all

wet and almost torn to pieces by the rain. When his mother asked about the

marks, Mike showed the paper to his mother with an embarrassed smile.

New year, New Year! I have long been looking forward to the new year. New years old people come to us with joy, and our faces have opened flowers.

For the new year, everyone took out the already prepared fireworks, rushed out to the door, and ignited the lead. Ah, how beautiful! The sky suddenly opened a brilliant flower, the sky was dyed extraordinarily dazzling. Streets and lanes have already become the world of children.

After the new year, I went to my grandparents home early and sent a good word: "wish you, happy Spring Festival!" The blessing suddenly >warm you and me. At night I also send a text message to my teacher, which says: I wish you good health and all the best. Your student: Lu Yao. And write back to the teacher: Thank you, I wish you a happy new year, learning progress! When I read the mind tianzizi.

In the new year, I got one thousand yuan more in my wallet. I really want to spend one hundred yuan on my wallet, but I think of grandma again, "Daddy is not easy to earn money, and money must be spent in the most needed place." I hold back.

I have been a year old again. I grew up, increased weight, increased a lot of knowledge, and should be more knowledge-based.

Ah, new year old man, thank you for this joy. In this year, I will certainly make you happy. Believe me! Come on for me!

大海：

你好!也许你瞧不起我，因我只是一不足道的小女孩。但是，你不能无视地球上的生灵!

前一阵子，印度洋发生了大海啸，平时安静的你，同你的兄弟姐妹们，一起呼啸着，奔腾着，跃上东南亚那一片美丽的土地，你知道你做了些什么?你毁了一片美丽的土地!也许那对你来说，只是一场微不足道的游戏，但对于一个生命来讲，你使它失去了它最宝贵的东西——生命。还有它亲人的泪。

大海，平日里，你风平浪静，是那样的美丽，你每天迎着太阳跳舞又赠给了人类无数鱼虾等海鲜。

不错，你对人类的贡献是很大。但是，你以为，因为你平日对人类的贡献大，你就可以在游戏时，一下子使上百万人失去他们的所有财产——生命，亲人，自由……

你可以瞧不起人类，可以瞧不起人类地财物，但你不能瞧不起天下苍生。天地之间，只有生命是最可贵的!——无论是人类的、动物的、植物的。

《精卫填海》的故事想必你也知道，你应该明白，任何一个生灵，可以为了自己的生命而不计付出。

你是没有生命的，也因为这样，你永远都不会死，永远都体会不到死亡的感受，但是，你得明白生命对于一个生灵有多么重要，你得明白生离死别的痛苦!

你可以瞧不起我，可以瞧不起给你写信的女孩儿，但你必须——尊重生命!

此致

敬礼!

地球上的一个生灵

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。
