Honesty Is Gold（诚实是金）

Honesty means speakingthe truth and being fair and upright in act. He who lies and cheats is dishonest.: Those who gain fortunes not by hard labour but by other means is dishonest.

Honesty is a good virtue. If you are honest all the time,youll be trusted and respected by others. A liar is always looked down upon and regarded as a black sheep by the people around. Once you lie, people will never believe you even if you speak the truth.

However, in the tide of commodity economy today, it seems that more and more people believe in money at the sacrifice of honesty. To them, among such things as health, beauty, m6ney, intelligence, honesty, reputation and talent, honesty is the only thing that can be east away. They dont understand or pretend not to understand that honesty is the biggest fortune humans own, and that it is the prerequisite for doing everything well. I think these people areto be pitied.

In short, honesty is gold. Honest, your reputation will become great;dishonest, your name will be spoiled and your personality degraded. Therefore, we should never make such an excuse as "A little dishonesty is only a trifle thing. We should eradicate immediately the seed of dishonesty once it is sowed in our minds.

请你以 “To Be an Honest Man”为题，用英语写一篇80词左右的短文。

To Be an Honest Man

As we know, honesty is one of the Chinese traditional virtues, so I think it is necessary for everyone to be an honest man.

I have heard of the story “Wolves are coming”. The little boy lost all his sheep at last because he told lies to the villagers twice. From the story, I know that if someone is not honest, he or she will lost good friends.

Remember that honesty is invaluable. Each of us should try to be an honest man not only in our study but also in our daily life from now on.

[英语中考作文：诚信

中考英语试卷写作的分数各个省市有所不同，一般在15-20分之间。下面从阅卷老师的角度分析一下中考英语作文的得分点和扣分点。2.字数：少于60字的作文要酌情扣分。中考英语作文要求60字以上，标点符号不算，少了就要扣分。

中考英语试卷写作的分数各个省市有所不同，一般在15-20分之间。下面从阅卷老师的角度分析一下中考英语作文的得分点和扣分点。

中考英语作文对考生的要求有四点：1、内容要完整。 2、语句流畅。3、没有语法错误。4、书写规范。能达到上述要求的作文，都会得到相应的高分。

一：先看一下扣分点：

1.内容方面：要点缺失，可酌情扣分。比如中考作文“I want to do something for my school”，若没有写一件具体的事情，是要扣3分以上的;若写的事情太过于虚幻，没有实际内容，也会扣1-2分。

2.字数：少于60字的作文要酌情扣分。

中考英语作文要求60字以上，标点符号不算，少了就要扣分。但是60字的作文能不能得高分?从我们拿到的实例作文来看，16分以上的作文，没有少于75字的，甚至少于80字的也少之又少。当然，也极少有超过100字的，因为中考试卷的短线格一共80个，在格子下面大约还有2行的空间，可以加20字左右，再多阅卷人就很难看清了，也会影响卷面的美观。所以，同学们如果想让作文得到高分，最好是让字数在75-100字之间。

3. 语法和拼写错误：每个扣0.5，重复错误不计;

4. 标点错误：每4个扣0.5.

二：加分点

除了这些扣分点，还有一些得分点：比如说作文的组织结构分，就是根据学生使用复杂句型、单词和谚语、俗语的情况来加分。

只要文章中有1个亮点，基本就可以争取到1分(3分的文采分是很难全部拿到的)。而这1分的亮点，是可以提前准备的。例如，有一些“万金油”式的复杂句型，例如强调句型、only相关的倒装句等，只要同学们多操练几次，几乎是一定能用到作文当中，从而为自己争取到这1分。

其次就是卷面分

很多家长[微博]和同学，尤其是部分书法并不是十分整洁的同学，都会关心是否真的有“卷面分”的存在。虽然在阅卷标准里面并没有卷面分这一项，但是这个分数却真切地反映在了同学们的分数里面。

据阅卷老师的经验，在阅卷的时候并不是按这3个部分逐项打分的，而是在第一遍读完全文之后，心里已经形成了一个“印象分”，然后再细读第二、三遍，把印象分分配到各个打分部分。因此，这个“印象分”就非常重要，而同学们的书法，也正是在这个环节，影响到了自己的分数。所以初三的考生，如果书法不好，一定要注意。所谓的书法并不需要写的很漂亮，符合3个简单的标准即可：没有斜体、没有连笔、涂改较少。

发言稿要注意以下三点：

1、发言的地点

2、发言的对象

3、发言的内容。

请看例文：

在一次英语班会上，老师请同学们以“Proud of My School”为主题发言。请根据下面所给的提示写一篇发言稿。字数要求在80～100词之间。文中不得出现真实的人名、地名。

What Can We Do for the Environment

our environment is becoming worse and worse，what can we do for the environment?I think each of us can do a little bit to help with this problem。

The first thing we can do is to use cloth bags instead of plastic bags when we go shopping. It helps to protect the environment. The second thing we can do is to reuse the old textbooks as possible as we can. We should also never forget to turn off the lights when we leave the classrooms in order to save energy. Whats more，it would be better if we walk or ride a bike to school. We should try our best to reduce pollution and waste。

In fact，even the simplest everyday activities can make a real difference to the environment. I believe we can make the world a better place to live in.

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.

Since I was a little child, I had a dream that I wanted to be a doctor. When I was little, I watched many TV series and movies about doctors. I thought they were so great. Therefore, I made up my mind to be a doctor. In my opinion, doctor is the people who can help patience get out of sickness and pain.I want to be the person who can help others. However, being a doctor needs so much professional knowledge and there is a long way to go. So I have to try my best on my study and go to a good college.

从我还是个小孩开始，我就梦想着成为一名医生。当我还小的时候，我看很多关于医生的电视剧和电影。我认为医生很伟大。因此，我下定决心要成为一名医生。在我看来，医生是可以帮助病人走出疾病和痛苦的人。我想成为可以帮助他人的人。但是，成为医生需要很多的专业知识，还有很长一段路要走。所以我必须努力学习，考上一个好大学。

My family, there is a mountain, this is my father. He is a man of humor, sometimes is also a serious person, when I did on the exam, he is engaged in the smile, said: "my daughter is really cool." But when I take an examination of is not good, also a in two different conditions. See if my paper is careless mistake, my father will be severely criticized me. 2. Hell take a look at my test paper, if I really dont, he doesnt speak, I also want to pull me to the in front of him, ask what the hell am I going, sometimes he told me more than an hour, you know I will so far, this is my father, a sense of humor and serious man,

In my family, there is a beauty, this is my mom, is a man with big eyes, the nose is very clever, how to say, she is probably the most beautiful Ive ever seen a young mother, my mother wont say me, but when I get bad she cant talk but with his eyes looking at me, I can see thick affection from her eyes, and my eyes is deeply sorry, and I will take an examination of well, next time to give them a replacement.

Dont forget, I still a little people in the family,I am a very happy person, from say, I am an optimist, and one more thing, my father and mother are all people, with a pair of glasses to me here, didnt wear glasses, and his eyes still surprisingly good, may come to me is a variable. I always say: "you have to wear glasses, why I dont wear glasses?"

Anyway I have a happy family!

我的家庭，有一个大山，这就是我的父亲。他是一个幽默的人，有时也是一个严肃的人，当我考得好的时候，他从事眉开眼笑，说：“我的女儿真棒”。但当我考的不好的时候，也分两种情况一。看看我的试卷如果是马虎错的话，我的爸爸会狠狠的批评我。二。他也会看看我的试卷，如果我真的不会的话，他不会说我，也要把我拉到他的面前，问我到底会不会，有时他会给我讲上一个小时多，知道我会为止，这就是我的父亲，一个又幽默又严肃的人，

我的家庭中，有一个美人，这就是我的妈妈，是一个眼睛大大的人，鼻子非常灵秀，怎么说的，她可能是我见过的一个最美丽的年轻妈妈了，我的妈妈不会说我，但是当我考的差的话她不会说话而是用眼睛看着我，我从她的眼睛中能看出浓浓的亲情，而我眼中是深深的歉意，而我下次一定能考好，给他们一个交代。

别忘了，这个家庭中还有我一个小人，我是一个非常愉快的人，从之说，我是一个乐天派的人，还有一件事，我的爸爸和妈妈都是戴眼镜的人，惹到我这里的，不到没戴眼镜，而且眼睛还是出奇的好，可能到我这里是变异了吧。我总是说：“你们都戴眼镜，为什么我不戴眼镜呢?”

总之我有一个快乐的家庭!

I have a lot of aspirations. but what i desire most is to have no examinations.

We are always told that examinations aim to check what we have learned. but i dont think so. examination is not the best way, especially in the primary school. examinations, composition examinations in particular, will bring students, teachers and parents a great deal of pressure. to cope with the examination, some students just remember the model essays by rote. it will do no good to the improvement of writing.

The students scores can be measured by their daily in-class study and by the completion of their everyday homework. if we do in this way, all the students and teachers will have a pleasant time every day.

翻译：

我有很多愿望，但我最渴望的就是不要考试。

我们总是被告知考试的目的是为了检测我们学到了什么，但是我不这么认为。考试不是最好的方式，特别是在小学。考试，特别是作文考试，会给学生、教师、学生家长带来很大的压力。为了应付作文考试，一些学生仅仅是死记硬背范文，这对提高学生的写作没有什么好处。

学生的成绩可以通过课内的日常学习和每天家庭作业的完成情况来衡量。如果我们用这种方法检查学习效果，所有的学生和教师每天都很快乐。

Recently,short messages become more and more popular with both the young and the old.People accept the convenient way of communication and some even cannot live without them.

最近，短信成为老少越来越流行了。人们接受沟通的便捷的方式甚至生活不能没有他们。

As to the easons why so many people are in favour of the short messages,in my opinion,therere three points.First, it can save time if you want to inform your friends of something in one or two words by sending a short message.By comparison with letters or email,short messages are really more quick for others to receive you as the mobile phones are always with them.Second,short messages cost less than making a phone call.Third,people who are not very familiar with each other can chat by short messages more easily,through which more and more people can know of others and become friends.

至于为什么这么多人都在短消息的原因，在我看来，有三点。第一，它可以如果你想通知你的朋友通过发送短消息的一个或两个话节省时间。通过信件或电子邮件相比，短消息真是越快让别人接受你的手机总是与他们。第二，短信成本低于打电话。第三，人彼此都不太熟悉的可以聊天的短消息更容易，通过越来越多的人可以了解别人，成为朋友。

However,nothing that is perfect exists in the world.Short messages also have some disadvantages with them.Some people cheat or fool others by telling them that they have won some prizes through short messages.Also,taking advantage of peoples ignorance,some websites charge a good deal of expenses form short messages.

然而，没有什么是完美的存在于这个世界上。短消息也有一些缺点的人。有些人欺骗或愚弄别人告诉他们，他们已经赢得了一些奖项，通过短信。同时，利用人们的无知，一些网站收取大量的费用，形成短消息。

Above all,short message is product of the hitech nowadays.It will serve us very well if we make proper and full use of it.

首先，短消息是如今的高科技产品。它将为我们很好，如果我们适当和充分利用它。

导语：写作练习对于英语能力的综合提高,特别是对高阶学习者而言有重要意义,不管做什么都需要技巧，写英语作文有什么技巧呢?下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的相关英语写作指导，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

如何写好一篇60字的作文，争取18分的最大值，显然已经引起了师生极大的重视。对于中考来说这可是个了不起的数字!那么如何提高作文得高分的能力?当然可以只回答一个字“练”。目标有了，最重要的就是方法了。至少我们应该注意作文的基本要求和基本技巧。

60字的作文，非常有限的文字里要说明白说清楚一件事或一个人物或者一个观点，并不是一件很容易的事情。所以更要注意结构、要求和技巧。

60字的作文最好先从结构上练起，一般要分这样五个层次：

1)开始句

2)向主体过度句

3)主体叙述

4)向结尾过度

5)结尾。

第一层开始句起着点题的作用，60字的作文一定要开门见山。也就是第一句就能让人感觉到你将要写什么。但是往往是概括性地笼统地指出。所以往往是一句话就解决问题。第二层往往是在第一层的基础上具体指出某人或某事。第三层就这个某人或某事进行详细的叙述或议论或描写。但一般以3至4句为宜。因为中考作文的字数是60至80字之间。不足和超过都要扣分。所以应该及时向结尾过渡，完成第四层，多半以谈感觉为主。在主体叙述和结尾之间起着承上启下的作用。但也应该一句话解决问题。过渡的梯子搭好了，也就能够圆滑地圆满地结尾了。结尾的一句话往往是感慨、感想、感叹之类的句子。这样6至8句的作文，每句平均10字左右(每个句子的字数根据含义的需要调整)，最后写好的作文就应该是在60至80字之间了。

说到这里我们只解决了层次清晰、符合字数要求的问题。其次注意没有把握的句子不写，拼写要准确，叙述中没有语法错误，时态要符合背景。我们学了含不同从句的复合句。所以作文中应该适当地出现复合句。一定要注意词汇上的不必要重复和句式的单一。巧妙地插入平时积累的格言警句，使作文生辉。设法满足“词汇和句型句式运用恰当自如;文中有值得肯定的好的句型和表达方式。”同时注意大小写、标点正确。

再次，一定注意作文的题内要求，往往是以问题形式出现为多，千万不可丢掉任何一个。

最后提醒大家注意的就是一定要打草稿，避免在卷面上涂抹。

以上这几点做到了，离满分作文也不远了。

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。

Earth’s temperature begins with the Sun. Roughly 30 percent of incoming sunlight is reflected back into space by bright surfaces like clouds and ice. Of the remaining 70 percent, most is absorbed by the land and ocean, and the rest is absorbed by the atmosphere. The absorbed solar energy heats our planet.

地球的温度开始太阳。大约百分之30的太阳光被反射回太空的光明面与云冰。在余下的百分之70，多数是由陆地和海洋吸收，其余的被大气层吸收。吸收太阳能加热我们的星球。

As the rocks, the air, and the seas warm, they radiate “heat” energy (thermal infrared radiation). From the surface, this energy travels into the atmosphere where much of it is absorbed by water vapor and long-lived greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane.

当岩石，空气，和温暖的海洋，他们辐射热能源(热辐射)。从表面上看，这种能量进入大气层，大部分是由水蒸气和长寿命的温室气体如二氧化碳和甲烷的吸收。

When they absorb the energy radiating from Earth’s surface, microscopic water or greenhouse gas molecules turn into tiny heaters— like the bricks in a fireplace, they radiate heat even after the fire goes out. They radiate in all directions. The energy that radiates back toward Earth heats both the lower atmosphere and the surface, enhancing the heating they get from direct sunlight.

当他们吸收辐射能量从地球表面，微观水或温室气体分子变成小加热器-就像在壁炉的砖，他们散发热量，即使在火熄灭。他们在所有方向辐射。能量辐射回地球加热低层大气和表面，增强他们从阳光直射加热。

This absorption and radiation of heat by the atmosphere—the natural greenhouse effect—is beneficial for life on Earth. If there were no greenhouse effect, the Earth’s average surface temperature would be a very chilly -18°C (0°F) instead of the comfortable 15°C (59°F) that it is today.

这种吸收和辐射热的气氛自然温室效应有利于地球上的生命。如果没有温室效应，地球表面的平均温度将是一个非常寒冷的18°C(0°F)而不是舒适的15°C(59°F)，它是今天。
