+ 加入清单Winter is like your room, if you can clean it very well, you will like it, but if you throw things in a mess, you dont want to know, you must hate it. "Winter" is the same, you use a good attitude to look at it, you will definitely like me, step by step slowly falling in love with the "different winter".
I like winter, because only winter can make trees appear different styles. From spring and summer to autumn, leaves are always changing and changing. But winter can make trees become bare. I like to accompany my brother to practice football with my family in winter, not only to make my body warm, but also to give my brother an opportunity to practice more. There are also, in winter, I dont know if you have noticed that mosquitoes are missing a lot. At last, they can make me calm down and do well in homework. This is also a great benefit of winter. The last reason is my favorite, the family out to buy Hot pot material, in supermarkets to all of a sudden to the streams of people busily coming and going, in winter, many fewer people, do not have to queue for a check out, is really good, in the winter, the whole family sitting around the round table, each other help each other to resist the cold wind up, this feeling is only a winter feel, together with my family, so hot fireplace, warm atmosphere, in addition to "winter", any season cant taste good.
Anyway, there are also its shortcomings in winter. Of course, there are cold and cold currents that make the nose and water direct. They will make us want to hide in the quilt, but occasionally, this is not a bad thing. In a word, I like it in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and each season has its own characteristics, of which, winter is a very special one. But every trip to winter makes me feel different.
“冬季”就像你的房间,如果能整理的很干净,自己就会喜欢它;但如果你把东西丢的乱七八糟,那不用想也知道,你一定很讨厌它。“冬季”也是一样,你用好的心态去看待它,你绝对会如同我,一步一步的慢慢爱上那“不一样的冬季”。
我喜欢冬季,因为只有冬季,能使树木出现不一样的风格,从春天、夏天在到秋天,叶子都一直变多、变色,但“冬季”却能让树木成为光秃秃的一片。我喜欢在冬季与家人一同去陪弟弟练足球,不仅让我的身体变暖和,也给弟弟多一次练习的机会呢!还有还有,在冬季时,不知道你有没有发现,蚊子顿时少了很多,总算能让我静下心来好好写功课了,这也是冬季的一大好处唷!最后一个理由也是我最喜爱的原因了,全家一起出动去买火锅料,在员来熙熙攘攘的大卖场,一下子到了冬季,人少了许多,结帐都不必排队排个大老远,真是不错,在冬季,全家人一起围着圆桌,互相帮对方把冷飕飕的风给抵挡起来了,这种感觉也只有冬季感受的到 了,和家人一起围炉,如此这般热融融的气氛,是除了“冬季”之外,任何一季都品尝不到的好滋味。
反正不管怎么说,当然冬季也有它的缺点,像是有冷到令人鼻水直流的寒流等,都会使我们想躲在被窝里不要出来,但偶尔这样,也不是件坏事吧!总而言之,春夏秋冬我都喜欢,每一季都有它的特色,其中,冬季是很特别的一个喔!但是每经过一趟“冬之旅”,都让我有不同的感受。

"Treasure island" is a story of treasure. One is called the pirate captain flint bought 700000 pounds worth of treasure in the treasure island, the protagonist of the story Jim accidentally got a treasure map, and some people treasure together. Treasure hunters and pirates launched a life and death struggle, finally, treasure hunters finally found the treasure.
I like the story of Jim, he is smart and brave, for example, after they got on the treasure island, and pirates, one day, Jim out of their camps, in the evening, he walked into the camp of the pirates, pirates leader didnt kill him, because love Jim wanted him to join the pirates, but he keep up, determined not to join the pirates. He that let me admire very much. Also, when sailing captured by pirates, Jim and the ships anchor partition, let the boat with the wind rocking, the pirates to stun, the pirates were shaking all night, and drank the wine, ships were robbed Jim come back the next day.
In the book, and Im impressed with a person, he is silver. Silver looks graceful on the surface, like a gentleman, but hes murderous pirate leader. In the ship as a cook, he, usually, people on board the ship like a family, but, in his convened a bunch of pirates, to treasure island, but decide to deny, and Jim they played out.
Everywhere in our life, but also has a "hypocrite", such as silver we should see through their camouflage, dont be fooled disguise.
周末读了《金银岛》这本书,让我深有感悟。
《金银岛》讲的是一个关于寻宝的故事。一个叫弗林特的海盗船长在金银岛上买了价值70万英镑的宝藏,故事的主人公吉姆偶然得到了一个藏宝图,和一些人一起寻宝。寻宝者和海盗展开了一场生死搏斗,最后,寻宝者终于找到了宝藏。
我最喜欢故事中的吉姆,他聪明机智而且很勇敢,比如说,在他们登上金银岛后,和海盗交战,有一天,吉姆出了他们的营地,到晚上,他却闯入了海盗的营地,海盗头子因为很喜欢吉姆所以没有杀他,想让他加入海盗,他却临危不乱,坚决不加入海盗。他的这一点让我非常敬佩。还有,当帆船被海盗占领,吉姆又把船的锚索隔断,让船随风摇晃,把海盗晃晕,海盗们被晃了一夜,加上喝了酒,第二天船就被吉姆抢了回来。
在书中,还有一个人让我印象深刻,他就是西尔弗。西尔弗表面上看起来举止文雅,像一个绅士,但是,他却是杀人不眨眼的海盗头子。他在船上担任厨师,平时对船上的人就像是亲人一样,但是,在他召集了一帮海盗,到岛上寻宝时,却翻脸不认人,和吉姆他们打的你死我活。
在我们的生活中,也处处有着像西尔弗这样的“伪君子”,我们要识破他们的伪装,不被伪装所蒙骗。

To me, I think an examination is a good thing for both teachers and students. Teachers can find out how much the students have grasped and then improve their teaching; students, on the other hand, will learn what their weak points are and then study even harder.
All in all, we should not waste time arguing whether examinations are good or not. What we should do is to try to improve the exam system and try to adjust it to our different requirements.

Pollution: An Increasing Concern in China You should write at least120 words following the outline below in Chinese.

2. 造成污染的原因

Pollution: An Increasing Concern in China
It is reported that ten big cities in China are being ranked among the top twenty cities with the highest pollution index in the world. This means it is high time we did something to bring the situation under control.Many factors are contributing to the deteriorating situation: industrial wastes pumped into the air, the lakes and rivers; a increasing number of automobiles crowding into the streets; the widespread use of plastic bags etc.
To my view, stiffer laws and regulations must be implemented to check pollution. Industries that release wastes without permission should be heavily fined. Cars should be equipped to minimize the exhaust they release into the air. And the use of plastic bags and disposable meal boxes should be banned. What’s more, the media should play an important role in implanting a sense of environmental consciousness into people’s mind. If everybody works toward a common goal of making the environment better, we can create a cleaner and lovelier world for us and for the coming generation.
篇12:以团购为话题的高中英语作文
全文共 835 字
+ 加入清单In recent years, a new type of online shopping is rapidly gaining popularity — group purchasing, which was originally introduced from foreign countries but is now widely accepted all over China. People can buy not only goods, but also all kinds of services on group purchasing sites.
Group purchasing is very convenient, and saves people a lot of money. But it also has some problems. Since group purchasing is nothing more than another form of online shopping, the nature of it is no different from other online shopping patterns. Problems that exist in online shopping also can be found in group purchasing, like deceptive advertisements or poor after-sale services.
In my opinion, we should treat group purchasing as a way of shopping and nothing more. We must be careful not to buy something we don’t need only to follow the fashion.

篇15:以万圣节为话题英语作文
全文共 3131 字
+ 加入清单halloween has always been a holiday filled with mystery, magic and superstition. it began as a celtic end-of-summer festival during which people felt especially close to deceased relatives and friends. for these friendly spirits, they set places at the dinner table, left treats on doorsteps and along the side of the road and lit candles to help loved ones find their way back to the spirit world.
todays halloween ghosts are often depicted as more fearsome and malevolent, and our customs and superstitions are scarier too. we avoid crossing paths with black cats, afraid that they might bring us bad luck. this idea has its roots in the middle ages, when many people believed that witches avoided detection by turning themselves into cats. we try not to walk under ladders for the same reason. this superstition may have come from the ancient egyptians, who believed that triangles were sacred; it also may have something to do with the fact that walking under a leaning ladder tends to be fairly unsafe. and around halloween, especially, we try to avoid breaking mirrors, stepping on cracks in the road or spilling salt.
but what about the halloween traditions and beliefs that todays trick-or-treaters have forgotten all about? many of these obsolete rituals focused on the future instead of the past and the living instead of the dead. in particular, many had to do with helping young women identify their future husbands and reassuring them that they would someday--with luck, by next halloween!--be married.
in 18th-century ireland, a matchmaking cook might bury a ring in her mashed potatoes on halloween night, hoping to bring true love to the diner who found it. in scotland, fortune-tellers recommended that an eligible young woman name a hazelnut for each of her suitors and then toss the nuts into the fireplace. the nut that burned to ashes rather than popping or exploding, the story went, represented the girls future husband. (in some versions of this legend, confusingly, the opposite was true: the nut that burned away symbolized a love that would not last.) another tale had it that if a young woman ate a sugary concoction made out of walnuts, hazelnuts and nutmeg before bed on halloween night, she would dream about her future husband. young women tossed apple-peels over their shoulders, hoping that the peels would fall on the floor in the shape of their future husbands initials; tried to learn about their futures by peering at egg yolks floating in a bowl of water; and stood in front of mirrors in darkened rooms, holding candles and looking over their shoulders for their husbands faces.
other rituals were more competitive. at some halloween parties, the first guest to find a burr on a chestnut-hunt would be the first to marry; at others, the first successful apple-bobber would be the first down the aisle.
of course, whether were asking for romantic advice or trying to avoid seven years of bad luck, each one of these halloween superstitions relies on the good will of the very same "spirits" whose presence the early celts felt so keenly. ours is not such a different holiday after all!

Yet the fact is that many of them are useless in some sense. Particularly, pornographic books describe violence, superstition. People who are taken up by such books might be misled and dispirited. Therefore, choosing an appropriate book not only improves your ability to discriminate and leads you to read effectively, but also gives you the fulfillment of knowing a good book.
首先,当你找到一本适合你自己的书时你会很兴奋。阅读是一种驳论。书是很有意义的。但事实上,在某种意义上他们中的许多是无用的。特别是色情暴力、迷信的书。这样的书可能会使人们被误导和意志消沉。因此,选择一本合适的书不仅能提高你的区别能力、引导你有效率的阅读,而且还让你知道一本好书。

Moreover, it really builds up a full comprehension of love, hatred, happiness and sorrows in our heart. We are able to experience various kinds of lives---what more is there to desire than that?
其次,阅读将提供取之不尽的精神营养。好的书籍教我们、帮助我们做的更好。他们是我们的真正的伴侣。他们都是有益的和鼓舞人心的。通过阅读到大自然的美、艺术的奇迹、建筑的宏伟、和惊人的工程都让我们感到惊奇和感激。此外,它真的我们的心建立起一个完全理解的爱、恨、开心和痛苦。我们可以体验各种各样的生活————更有什么更渴望的事吗?
Thirdly, it is fruitful for us to learn from the book after reading it. Books are our friends; they take us to all the countries in the world; they tell us stories of all ages; they teach us the truth. With reading, we can learn innumerable things we do not know, be aware of what has happened in the past as well as what is going to happen in the future, and solve the urgent problems that beset us. Gradually, we come to know how to be a real person and how to observe the world.
