中文翻译：

每年的五月初五，是我国的一个重要传统节日——端午节。

每逢到这一天，家家户户都要吃棕子、喝雄黄酒、挂菖蒲、艾叶、有些地方还举行划龙舟比赛……

关于端午节，有一个流传很广的故事。中国古代有一位伟大的爱国诗人，名叫屈原。在公元278年，农历五月初五的那天，屈原在绝望、悲愤之下，投入旧罗江，当地的百姓闻讯后，马上划船去打捞，一直行止洞庭湖始终不见屈原的尸体。

为了寄托哀思，人们荡舟江河之上，此后就变成为龙舟比赛。百姓又怕江河里的鱼吃掉屈原的身体，就纷纷从家里拿来米糰投入江中，以免鱼虾糟蹋屈原的尸体。后来就形成了吃粽子的习俗……

根据以上故事来看，这些都是为了纪念屈原而形成一种风俗习惯。我国还有许许多多的传统文化，作为一名中国人，我平时还要更多地去了解这些灿烂古代文化。

中国有许许多多丰富多彩的传统文化，博大精深，源远流长。由于我从小非常爱吃粽子，所以对“端午节”的印象非常深刻。

关于交通问题的中考英语作文

With more and more cars coming into our families, we are happy that it has greatly improved our life. But unluckily, it has also brought many problems, such as heavy traffic and traffic accidents.

Traffic safety is everybodys business. We must obey the rules. For example, we must walk on walk side, when we cross zebra – crossing, stop and look right and left, then go across fast. Dont play football on the road .we can tell our parents not to drink before they drive, not to run through red lights, not to talk and laugh while driving etc.

We can say cars are coming into our life, but only when everybody thinks traffic safety is everybodys business can we be safe driving on roads and walking on sidewalks.

【参考译文】

随着越来越多的汽车走进我们的家庭，我们很高兴它大大改善了我们的生活。但不幸的是，它也带来了许多问题，如交通拥挤和交通事故。

交通安全人人有责。我们必须遵守规定!例如，我们必须走在一边，当我们过斑马线，停下来，看左，右，然后跨越快速。不要在马路上踢足球，我们可以告诉父母开车前不要喝酒，不要闯红灯，开车时不要说话和笑。

我们可以说汽车正在进入我们的生活，但只有当每个人都认为交通安全是每个人的业务，我们可以安全驾驶道路和人行道上行走。

I think much about my future that it’s good. First of all, I must have a healthy body so that I can work or do anything. I strongly support that saying that the body is the root of the revolution. Besides, I think I will have a harmonious family with my wife and children. I am the support of my family. I must work hard for them, so a good job is necessary. I want to be an engineer that earns a lot. And I will support my parents and my wife’s. From this point, a good job is extremely important. However, I hope I still have some free time for leisure, like traveling or do something I like. In short, I want a peace but rich future with my families.

我认为对我的未来很好。首先,我必须有一个健康的身体,这样我就可以工作或做任何事。我强烈支持说身体是革命的根源。除此之外,我认为我将有一个和谐的家庭和我的妻子和孩子。我家人给我的支持。我必须努力工作,所以一份好的工作是必要的。我想成为一名工程师,收入很多,我将支持我的父母和我妻子的。从这一点上,一个好工作是非常重要的。然而,我希望我仍然有一些自由的时间来休闲,喜欢旅游或做一些我喜欢的事情。简而言之,我希望有一个和平但丰富的未来和我的家庭。

now in the country areas, there are many children out of school. i think one of the reasons is that their families are too poor to afford their school. as a result, they have to stay at home to make money to keep their families.

another reason is that many parents think it useless for the girls to study and they would not like them to go to school. a third reason is that some children are not interested in their lessons, and would not like to go to school.

in my opinion all the children including the girls should have the chance to receive education. all the people should pay attention to the education of the children who will play a very important part in the future of our country.

这次英语期中考试我没有考好，没有达到期中考试前制定的目标。我知道父母和老师对于我有着很大的期望，可是我还是没有考好。对于这点我感到十分抱歉。但是既然犯了错误就要改正，所以，通过考试我也想了很多。我知道期中考是一面清澈的镜子，在它面前，我羞愧地低下了头。仔细看看试卷发现竟然错了很多不该错的地方。我的基础知识部分扣了很多分，主要是单词掌握不好。阅读题扣了8分，说明我的阅读量不够，我的阅读速度慢影响了做后面的题，思考的时间少了。老师狠狠地批评了我。我的这次英语作文只得了8分，这与我的词汇量不够，阅读积累不够有很大的关系，分析原因，主要是课前没有做好预习，课堂上没有积极的举手发言，课后不认真复习，把写作业当成一种完成任务。

于是，在期中考的时候，我得到了我应有的“报应”。 经过我的仔细反思，有这样的结果是我 在做作业时，囫囵吞枣，没有仔细审题，认真做题，这让我失去了一次特别好的自我提高的机会。我应该把写作业当成一个新的开始，而不是上一段学习的结束，每一次的作业都要当做一次小的考试。我要增加一些仿写和阅读的练习。在今后的学习中，我在课堂上要积极回答问题做好笔记，多记一些老师拓展的知识点，每天回家要复习一遍老师讲的内容，认真完成一篇阅读与完形填空，我有上进心想去学更多的英语知识，自己努力，超越自己，比别的同学更好。

Changes in Shanghai

1 300年前的上海

2 上海的今天(东方明珠、金茂大厦)

3 上海的明天(2010年的世博会)

参考作文

Shanghai was a small town three hundred years ago. There were only a few thousand people living here. Many of them were fishermen and farmers.

300年前，上海只是个小镇，只有几千人居住在这里，其中很多人是渔民和农民。

Today, Shanghai is becoming an international city. Many tall building have been built. Some bridges have been put up over the Huangpu River. More and more foreigners come to Shanghai for a visit every day.

今天，上海已变成一座国际大都市，并建成了很多高楼大厦。黄浦江上架起了很多桥梁。每天都有越来越多的外国人前来旅游。

Shanghai has already won the bid for holding the World Expo 2010. I think the environment will be better and better and the city will be more and more beautiful.

上海已经取得了2010年世博会的举办权，我相信上海的环境会越来越好，并且越来越美丽。

点评：虽然2010年世博会已经结束，但关于城市发展的话题依然热烈，除了上海，像广州、北京、深圳等大城市也有可能是考试的热点。

1)结构2)内容要点 3)语言(词组搭配、句型、句式变化、过渡词)看结构和内容要点定分数档，看语言给成绩。这是中考英语阅卷的潜规则。 三段四步法——中考英语满分杀手锏 知己知彼，方能百战不殆，既然中考阅卷流程和内部标准已经明朗化，相对的策略也就顺利成章的形成了。现在和大家分享，笔者教学和阅卷过程中总结创立的写作满分秘诀。

1 “三段”(三个段落)——针对的阅卷老师先看文章结构和内容要点，让阅卷老师不得不给你定位一类文。 中高考情景是作文，无论是那种文体，都可以用三段法来表示。这个方法的起源是来自美国的“高考”SAT考试，(SAT是美国或它国学生想要申请美国大学必须参加的考试，故被叫过美国的高考)。 我们管这样的文章叫做HamburgerWriting(汉堡写作)

顾名思义，就是无论是记叙文、还是议论文、或者08年中考以及09一模西城的夹叙夹议文章，都可以通用。简单解释如下：

Dreams and Reality

When we talk about dreams, we are so excited, we have many dreams, such as being a famous person, traveling around the world and so on.

命题作文是依据所给题目,确定中心,选择材料,写出符合题意,内容表达具体、充分的文章。写命题作文通常要注意以下几点：

一、审准题目:文章的中心要对题目的分析来确定,一定要弄清主题的内涵,确立与文章联系的主题思想,表达不能游离于主题,否则即使内容再精彩,也是跑题作文,得分将会大打折扣,因此,写命题作文最重要的是先审清题目,确立要表现的中心。

二、构思结构:就是开放思路,启动联想,构想表现形式,勾勒出文章的结构层次,依次写出引言段,主题句,发

展段和结尾句,努力使之新颖,别致。

三、选择材料:这一点很重要,一定要围绕想表现的中心去选择组织材料,所选的材料必须典型精要。

四、表达:就是用最确切明了的语言贯穿材料,表达自己的思想,力争用符合英语语法规则。英语表达习惯,最顺畅自然的词,句,段去表达中心思想,与表现中心无关的话即使再生动形象也不要去写。就写作的目的表现形式来看,命题作文分为三种形式:1、记叙文类;2、说明文类; 3、议论文类。
