A couple of years ago, individuals can only take courses at real schools. In other words, only when they go out to schools by themselves will they have lessons which they want to have. However in recent years, with the development of internet and education mode, online teaching has become increasingly common. This kind of teaching mode means that a student just needs to have classes sitting in front of a computer at home, which appealing to lots of people.

Secondly, online teaching makes it come a reality that one is able to study at the best pace suitable for him according to his own schedule.

another thing, for people who are poor at self-discipline, learning online at home will be a less effective way since they are easier to be distracted by other things.

Some classmates tell jack about problem-solving ideas and steps, only let him think independently finish the homework, he felt that classmate enough "friendship". The teacher finished, lets think about what students help jack Bauer is right? What is true friendship?

铃铃铃……!上课的铃声敲响了，这堂课是语文课，我心里想，不知道老师这堂课会讲什么课文呢?

原来，老师在课堂上给我们讲了一个关于《友谊》的小短文，是讲一个叫小强的同学在解算术应用题有困难，写作业时常请同学帮助，有的同学就把自己的作业让小强抄一遍。小强认为这样的同学够“朋友”。有的同学只给小强讲讲解题的思路和步骤，让他自己动脑筋独立完成作业，他觉得这样的同学不够“交情”。老师讲完了，让我们想一想哪些同学帮助小强是对的?什么才叫真正的友谊?我想了想，帮助小强讲解题思路和步骤的同学是对的，因为只有这样，小强在遇到这样的难题他就会做出来，以后自己就能慢慢的独立完成作业了。而那些把自己作业让小强抄一遍的同学，这样做是不对的，也不叫真正的“友谊”，如果这样做，他就会慢慢的养成依赖的坏习惯。

记得有一次，我在做题时，我有一个字不认识，我的同桌陈逸飞告诉我，我下次在遇到这个字的时候就会读了。她经常这样帮助我，我觉得这样才叫真正的友谊。

Three attributes can help people in their studies. First, a sense of responsibility is important for building a sound character. If you arent responsible, youll postpone your assignments or devote too little time to your schoolwork.

Second, in school life, relationships between people are valuable. Friends can bring you happiness and laughter. In addition, you can discuss problems and pursue knowledge with them.

Last, it is important to have a constructive philosophy of life. If you are defeated, dont be disappointed. Try to face your life and your studies with courage and determination.

If you can work toward these goals, youll become a well-rounded and versatile student instead of being a bookworm.

chances of ever obtaining real happiness. As a result，many people avoid the very

fun. All those who always have so much fun actually may not be happy at all.

lot. To tell the truth， it is a good thing. Unfortunately，My father always goes

out and takes part in the gambling activities. And my mother sometimes quarrels

with my father. I am extremely unhappy about it. I think money doesnt equal

happiness. And pain-free lifestyle also doesnt equal happiness. The real

happiness is that everyone loves each other， and does everything useful for our

society. Most of my classmates support me. But some of them think money is

everything. In my opinion，we cant do things without money. But money cant take

the place of everything，such as your life，your time and your happiness.

My high school life, nothing exciting - from flat to start, but also in the flat end. Can not call it exciting, but it can not be pleased to lament the difficult, but it can not be portrayed as odd. But "dull" is not possible to rub out the highlights of my life, but it will show a more bright, brilliant ... ... 我的高一生活平平淡淡——是从平淡中开始，又是在平淡中落幕。既不能称之为精彩，又不能欣然去感叹它的艰难，更不能将它描写得那样曲折离奇。但“平淡”是不可能抹杀掉我生活中的亮点的，反而会将它呈现得更加明亮，辉煌……

Long and short years, I learned the most important thing, not a textbook knowledge of those endless, but people learned how to do - to get along with everyone in the days, I learned a technique called "unity" thing, it allows us to hear the voice of 54 hearts beat together; short life in boarding school a few months, I learned to "inclusive", which is a blend of our strength; in ride out the storm with friends when I know the "concern", a pair of "It better to give than to receive." The best interpretation of ... Yes, I learned a lot of things like that, they are impossible to find in the textbook knowledge, they can not be called a capability.

China designates the ninth day of the ninth month as Senior ‘s Day , which combine tradition with modern times subtly to turn it into a festival for respecting , caring about , loving , and helping the elderly people .

农历九月初九为中国传统的节日—重阳节。庆祝重阳节的活动多彩而浪漫，包括登高远眺、观赏菊花、遍插茱萸、吃重阳糕等。“九”与汉字“久”同音，又是个位数字之最，因此寓意长寿长久。自古以来，有不少贺重阳用菊花的诗词佳作。人们还以为，登高可以驱除霉运，意指“晋升高位”和“长寿”。中国把九月九日定为老人节，传统与现代巧妙地结合，使之成为一个尊老、敬老、助老的节日。

高一英语作文：我对考试作弊的看法

My Opinion on Cheating in Examinations 我对考试作弊的看法

It is known to us all that some students cheat in examinations at school.

As students, we often take examinations at school, but sometimes we have too many examinations which are too difficult for us. On the other hand, some of us are lazy and dont work hard at their lessons. So when taking examinations, they sometimes cheat in order to get better results to please their parents and teachers.

In my opinion, it is wrong to cheat in examinations because it breaks the rules of schools. We students should be honest and try to get good results by studying hard instead of cheating in examinations. Whats more, we should improve our study methods and get well prepared for examinations.

高一英语作文：读书的好处的英语作文

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, and 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.”

高一英语作文：兴趣的作用

Everybody has his or her interest， and interests differ widely from person to person because of age， sex health and education. To some extent， interest also reflects one＇s ability or wish. Interest plays an important part in our daily life. As a middle school student interest is of great importance in study. If you want to learn something well， you have to show interest in it， which is quite possible. Once you have found your way into the subject， you may have also found a world of curiosities.

In our times， interest may not only result in skill and knowledge but also lead to great inventions and discoveries. To be a successful person in the world one should develop one＇s interest.

As a child, I am so luck. I don’t need to worry about food. I always have enough delicious food, live in a big house, and have beautiful clothes to dress. I am so happy that I have no idea to treasure all these things. I am a kind of particular about food. I often eat a little for one dish and the throw it away, because I have many choices. I will be full after eating several dishes. But one day, I watch a piece of news on TV. It is about some Africa children who are suffering starvation. They are so poor. They are not only having no food to eat but also having little water to drink. A bowl of rice is very rare for them. Seeing their longing eyes, I feel guilty. I am regret about wasting food before. How can I waste so much rare food? From now on, I will try my best to save food, to do something for them.

As food is to the body, so is learning to the mind. Our bodies grow and muscles develop with the intake of adequate nutritious food. Likewise, we should keep learning day by day to maintain our keen mental power and expand our intellectual capacity. Constant learning supplies us with inexhaustible fuel for driving us to sharpen our power of reasoning, analysis, and judgment. Learning incessantly is the surest way to keep pace with the times in the information age, and reliable warrant of success in times of uncertainty.

Once learning stops, vegetation sets in. It is a common fallacy to regard school as the only workshop for the acquisition of knowledge. On the contrary, learning should be a never ending process, from the cradle to the grave. With the world changing so fast, to cease learning for just a few days will make a person lag behind. What’ s worse, the animal instinct dormant deep in our sub-conscious will come to life, weakening our will to pursue our noble ideas, undermining our determination to sweep away obstacles to our success and strangling our desire for the refinement of our character. Lack of learning will inevitably lead to the stagnation of the mind, or even worse, its fossilization. Therefore, to stay mentally young, we have to take learning as a lifelong career.

食物之于身体,所以学习思想。我们的身体得以生长而肌肉得以发达的摄入足够的营养的食物。同样地,我们应该日复一日不断地学习以保持我们敏锐的心智能力,并扩充我们的智力容量。不断的学习提供我们用不尽的燃料,来驱使我们磨利我们的推理、分析和判断。持续的学习是最可靠的方法与时俱进在信息时代,也是在变动的时代中成功的可靠保证。

一旦学习停止,植被。这是一个常见的谬误作为学校知识的唯一场所。相反地,学习应该是一个永无止境的过程,从摇篮到坟墓。与世界变化的如此之快,停止学习几天就将使人落后。什么更糟的是,蛰伏在我们潜意识深处的动物本能就会复活,削弱我们追求我们高贵的想法,破坏我们决心扫除障碍我们的成功和扼杀我们渴望的细化我们的品格。缺少学习将不可避免地导致心灵的停滞,甚至更糟的是,它的僵化。因此,为了保持心理年轻,我们必须将学习作为终身职业。

Many people believe that having a lot of money is the greatest happiness in

life. But I dont agree with them, because money is not everything. Money cant

make us a true man.

The way I see it, good health is much better than a lot of wealth. No

matter how much money we have, we’ll not feel happy at all if we are in poor

health. In order to be healthy, we must keep a positive attitude and have a good

living habit.

Apart from good health, we must be diligent at work. As long as we work

hard, we cannot just make a good living, but enrich our minds.

Additionally, we ought to give our helpful hands to others when they are in

need. While helping others, we can own a good fame as well as get more social

experience. Its really a good way to kill two birds with one stone. Only by

doing so can we enjoy the happiest life.

The Spring Festival is very important to Chinese people. In the past，people could not often have meat，rice or other delicious food. They could only eat these during the Spring festival. So every year they hoped that the Spring Festival would come soon. Now， although people‘s life is much better，and we can eat the delicious foods everyday. People still like the festival. Because most people can have a long holiday，and we are free to go on a trip or visit our friends or have parties with our family. In the evenings，we can have a big meal in the restaurant or stay at home with family and watch the TV programs.

I like the Spring Festival very much. How wonderful the Spring Festival is！

There are many excellent stars in various fields at home and abroad, for example Zhou Xun in film industry, Mo Yan in literature, and Bolt in the sports circles. My favorite star is Zhou Xun, who is an outstanding actress. Zhou Xun watched movies since she was a little girl. Her father worked in a cinema, which offered her golden opportunity to access to movie. Maybe her talented performance was developed since then. Over the two decades Zhou Xun performs in TV or movies, her acting is mature day after day, bringing her lots of awards. Now she has become one of the iconic actresses in China. Besides, she advocates herself in philanthropy and environmental protection. Zhou Xun calls on everyone to live a low-carbon life to keep a green and beautiful planet. I like her because of her excellent performing as well as her personality.

在国内外各领域中都有杰出的明星，例如电影界的周迅、文学界的莫言和体育界的博尔特。我最喜欢的明星是周迅，她是一位很棒的电影演员。周迅还是个小孩子时，就接触到了电影。她的爸爸在一间电影院工作，这是她接触电影的绝佳机会，也许她的表演天赋就是从那个时候培养起来的。在她踏足电视电影的二十年里，周迅的表演日渐成熟，也给她带来了许多的荣誉。现在，她已经成为了华语影坛最具标志性的女演员之一。此外，她也热衷于慈善事业和环保。周迅号召大家低碳生活，还我们一个绿色、美丽的地球。我喜欢她，不仅因为她出色的表演，也因为她的人格魅力。

[高一英语作文:My Favorite Star

I seem to recall best a journey we made by tram one winter night.

We were going to visit my Granny at Westoe, and I was very excited, because an evening excursion was something quite unheard of for me. It had been raining; the gas lamps lit the gleaming pavements and cobbles with a doubled radiance. The shaking tram wires were sending down showers of white raindrops. Everything in the ram seemed fresh and glittering. The breezy windows sparkled with long zigzags of rain and the passing street lamp flared gorgeously through the panels of blue and yellow and ruby glass. Outside, it was cold and windy, and we could feel the gale buffeting against the side of the tram, making it sway and lurch ore than usual, and throwing the passengers of song, and the fresh, clean, cold sea-wind was blowing right through the upper deck. Above, a high half-moon seemed to be skidding along on its back through piles of black, white-lined rags. It was a wild night, with a sense of magic in the offing. The people in the tram did not like ordinary mortals; a kind of exhilaratinggaietyhadseizedthem,anditseseememed to lighten their bodies and illuminate their faces. At times I was sure we were really flying.
