[常见名言警句的英文翻译

随着一段音乐，一个断臂男孩出现在我的眼前。他，一个五官端正，却失去双臂的男孩，一个坚强乐观，性情开朗的男孩，他的名字叫刘伟。

刘伟在11岁时，因跟伙伴们玩躲猫猫，不慎被雷击中，从此，他便失去了双臂。失去双臂的他没有轻生，而是坚强地活着。问世间，有多少人残疾后，乐观，充满信心地活着，问老天，为什么对刘伟不公。

随着人们的掌声，走上台的男孩是谁？正是他——刘伟。震撼人心的一幕终于来了。他坐在椅子上，双脚放在琴键上。他开始弹了，那声音忽快忽慢，忽强忽弱，似细水潺流，如高山瀑布。他微闭着双眼似乎他也是一个观众，一同享受这天籁之音。我觉得他弹得并不比朗朗差，似乎可以跟朗朗一起演奏了。我看见有人哭了，我知道那是激动地泪水，他们感受到了这位朝气蓬勃的少年，感受到了这位少年的激情，感受到了这位少年的不易。

用手弹钢琴已经难了，更何况他用的是脚。可以想到他在琴房里没日没夜，废寝忘食的弹，一坐就是一天。有时候会练到脚趾出血泡，会练到长出老茧，可能会弹到深夜10点左右。当那美妙的音乐慢慢地变轻，群众们睁开了双眼，群众们站了起来，鼓起了掌，那声音一浪高过一浪，整个厅内充满了激情。当评委说：“现在我已经没话说了，刘伟你想对观众们说些什么？”刘伟说的一句话彻彻底底当的把我惊了一下：“我的面前只有两条路，一是痛痛快快地死，二是精彩地活！谁说钢琴只能用手弹？！”当评委们商量后，说通过时，刘伟脸上溢满了兴奋，因为他付出的努力终于得到回报了。

刘伟，虽然你不是一个优秀的作家，不是一个跳得优美的舞蹈家，但你一定是一个出色的钢琴家。

当我们呱呱坠地时就以经开始有责任感了。对父母，对社会上的所有，只有你负了责任，别人一定也在为你负责。下面是小编带来的是关于责任的英文作文，希望对您有帮助。

The moonlight shines in through the window, clean the floor, the floor if hydroscope, reflecting the gentle, pure as jade october. The shelves of books, at the moment, become a small soldier, a sentry in order to stand strict in demands. Is it because of the magic of moonlight that makes everything clean and tidy?

Who can think of, this clean room was messy "dog"?

"The room is so messy, it takes a lot of time to do it for you every time." The mother with her brows locked, sweeping and sweeping, and even a little confused.

"My big lady, usually you also clean up the room, OK?"."

"Oh, I see." I was waving impatiently.

In a flash, mom suddenly exploded: "every time its" I know ", but which one did you do? Just a slob!"

Im not happy when I listen to my mother. Its natural revolt. Family wars broke out.

The end of the war, both sides, mother angrily left. I am also the nose, reddish eyes. Silence for a while, I turned off the lights, ready to sleep. Outside the window, the bright moonlight flows into the room, infiltrates in my body, moist like water, gives the human feeling of comfort, resembles comforts, also appears in the instruction. Yes, it might be a good thing to tidy up the room as if it were moonlight or clean water.

Second days after the completion of the operation, I diligently will manageably desk have all a hideous mess of information. At the beginning, it was not suitable, and gradually, it was not so confused. Soon, the table was cleaned. Extracurricular books are extracurricular books, textbooks are textbooks, and learning materials and entertainment products have their respective fixed positions. Then fold the clothes scattered on the bed, put them into the wardrobe, and tidy up the schoolbag well. All pick up after, I wiped the sweat on the head carefully wiping the amount of fine, a surprise to see the finishing room, everything is so neat.

When my mother came in and gave me the apple, her eyes were pleasantly surprised, and she praised me with her thumbs up. I have some awkward to head off the past, the mouth of the slightly rising radian, but overflowing the pride and joy of my heart.

Night, moonlight, like songs, if in the language: perhaps responsible for the process will shed hard sweat, but the results are always sweet responsibility.

月光透过窗，照在干净的地板上，地板若水镜,倒映出温柔的、皎洁如白玉的月辉。书架上的一本本书，在此刻，化身成为了一个个放哨的小士兵，井然有序地，一丝不苟的站着。是否是因为月光的魔力才让一切变得整洁干净?

谁又能想到，这干净的房间曾是凌乱的“狗窝”？

“房间这么乱，每次帮你整理都要要花费很多时间。”眉头紧锁着的妈妈,边扫地边整理着,甚至有点手忙脚乱。

“我的大小姐,平时你也清理一下房间好不好。”

“哦,我知道了”我有些不耐烦的挥挥手。

一瞬间，老妈突“爆炸”了：“每次都是‘我知道了’,可是你又有哪次做到了呢？简直就是一个大懒鬼!”

听着老妈的话，我也不太高兴，自然是反抗，家庭大战爆发了。

战争结束了，两败俱伤，老妈气呼呼的走了。我也是鼻子发酸，眼眶微红。静默了好一会，我关了灯，准备睡觉。窗户外，皎洁的月光流进房间,浸润在我的身上，湿润如水，给人舒适之感，似在安抚，又似在教导。是啊，如果将房间整理得如月光、如流水般干净,说不定也是件好事。

第二天，完成作业后，我勤快地将书桌上摆得七零八落的资料收拾好。一开始还有些不适应，渐渐地，也不是那么手忙脚乱了。很快，桌子清理好了。课外书是课外书，教科书是教科书，学习用品和娱乐用品都有了它们各自固定的位置。再将散落在床上的衣服叠好，放进衣柜，将书包好好整理好。一切收捡好后，我抹了抹额头上细细细细的汗珠，惊喜地看着整理后的房间，一切都是如此整洁。

老妈进屋给我送苹果的时候，眼底也染上了惊喜，竖起大拇指表扬我。我有些别扭地将头别了过去，嘴角那微微上扬的弧度却溢出了我心底的自豪与喜悦。

夜晚，月色悠悠，似在歌，若在语：或许负责的过程会洒下辛苦的汗水，但是尽责的结果，总是甜的。

My name is ***. ** is my given name. *means sweet and* means person, so my name means a sweet-tempered girl. I actually am! But you can call me June, for your convenience, j-u-n-e, its similar to my Chinese name Jun. I am from Enping, a small city in the southwest of Guangdong Province, near HongKong and Macao.

[计算机英文自我介绍作文

Mr. Louis is my Chinese teacher. She was of medium height, slender, with two eyebrows on her lanky face, a pair of squinting eyes, and a pair of pink glasses on her high nose, about thirty years old. Her speech was vivid and vivid in class, her tone was cadenced and her emotions were real. People are kind and strict.

I remember that it was one of the things that happened early on, and I came to the school early in the morning and put my exercise books on the table, and I happily picked up the Chinese book and read aloud the text aloud.

After about a quarter of an hour or so, Mr. Louis walked into the classroom with a smile on his face, went up to the lectern, took out the red pen and handed the students the homework. After more than ten books, I found that the teachers face gradually changed from sunny to cloudy, and some of my classmates workbooks were taken to the stage. When it was my turn, my heart was both happy and afraid. I was glad that the teacher could see the homework I had finished. The fear is that the teacher will also take away my exercise book. Not sure enough, I saw the workbook lying on the table, trying to get it down, but it was impossible.

After class, the teacher overlooks his face and says to us, "if you want to have a workbook, please come to my office." Then he picked up the book and went away. I breathed a sigh of relief, but I was still not happy. I didnt know what was waiting for me: reprimand, criticism, praise... Oh, I dont think so.

After the second lesson, I and the students went to the teachers office and prepared to be taught. Who knows, the teacher changed the normal, kindly say: "last night go back why dont finish earnestly, ask you a few to correct the error in the workbook." Several of us took the exercise books nervously and fell on the teachers desk to correct them all. Then, let the teacher see again. Then the teacher smiled and said, "thats right. The people who read more should pay attention, the homework also cannot be careless!" We listened, and the mood was like a stone falling to the ground and running out of the office.

You say, how can such a teacher not let us like?

The empty dam below my home was clean and tidy, and now the empty dam is full of rubbish, especially on rainy days, polluted water, and pedestrians passing by. The other people, because of the strength of the power, threw the garbage just hanging on the tree, ugly dead.

Im going to talk to the grown-ups. Theyre not talking to me. What are the kids doing? And drove me out. After I was driven out, I thought to myself, "this cant work. I can go to the neighborhood committee." So I went to the neighborhood committee. When I arrived at the neighborhood committee, I said to an aunt, "aunt, I want to reflect that someone in this building is littering." Aunt kind of say: "kid, the things we already know, one building will see you in a few days to clean the residents of the building to education, by the way you, you are quick to go home." I had to go home and wait for someone to clean. A few days later, we actually saw someone to clean, clean the people of the whole building up and down, left and right, fringes sweep of very clean, after finished, clean people will start all the residents of education building (including me), finished her education and clean people have left. After I passed this, I never saw him/them littering.

I suggest that we really want to protect the environment, because it is peoples responsibility to protect the environment. If people do get it right, we can have a good home.

Dear owners

Happy Spring Festival!

In the twinkling of an eye, 2017 has gone quietly, and the steed of 2018

has stepped forward. All the past is memories, and the future is beautiful!

Throughout 2017, yianju foremen club has contacted thousands of owners

with decoration needs, constantly participating in and listening to your

decoration stories. Maybe some of our owners did not reach an agreement in a

short period of time, so they withdrew from your decoration stage. However, this

does not hinder yianju from sending you warm wishes for the new year and

keeping the same new house as you Happy mood; more owners have completed the

decoration tour of your home with the efforts of the eXcellent foremen of yianju

foremen club and the witness of yianju staff, which certainly contains

heartache, anger, joy and eXcitement. Of course, it is inseparable from your

hard work. Do you remember that our company staff asked the boss for leave to

facilitate you to go out and buy building materials? Do you still remember that

while you were out on business, you secretly went to the new house to "inspect"

the workers construction? Do you still remember that you were fined a days

salary because you didnt choose a suitable living room lamp for a whole

afternoon? Do you remember the quality problems and construction delay caused by

the workers disobedience and in accordance with his so-called "eXperience"? How

angry and mad you are! Ha ha, its all over. It doesnt matter. Whats important

is that your new residence has become better and better in various coordination

and communication, and has become the same as you imagine. All kinds of

happiness and unhappiness in the past 2-3 months have become memories, an

irreplaceable memory. In the future life, in which details, you will more or

less think of these eXperiences Will smile gently.

With your strong support, yianju foreman club has gradually completed the

transformation from ordinary decoration company to foreman club mode, adapting

to the home decoration mode of low gross profit and high output. While

maintaining good construction quality, it really gives the profit to the owner

and the foreman.

In this year, we also encountered the refusal to pay labor fees by

unscrupulous customers, many customers were "unconditionally" deleted in the

public comments, and malicious competition from peers... But fortunately, we

still have your support, so we have not stopped moving forward, which is better

than the special inspection mechanism of other companies, the proXimity

principle of convenient site management, and the home insurance given to

customers ... all this will only make us go better and farther! Because,

everything has you!

In the new year of 2018, the development principle of easygoing is still to

make profits, so as to benefit the decoration owners and the construction

foreman; to carry out practical decoration, it is really developing!

On the eve of Chinese traditional New Years Eve and Spring Festival, all

the staff and foremen of yianju foremens Club wish you and your family a happy

New Year! Happy family! Everything goes well!

The fast-developing cities severe environmental imbalance constructs the high demands of productivity and low demands of living standards of the daily lives. The butterfly effect is the main approach towards the promotion of environmental protection. Its inefficient when only one person whos acting on protecting the environment, but if one starts the others would follow. Teaching environmental protection in early age is also crucial since the inconsideration of pursuing short-term interest not only set the milestone for the public hazard, but also the destruction of our planet. Moreover, the environmental protection should be the priority for the future of all countries, for good standard of living starts by embracing the ecological balance of the nature.

三、范文储备

1、It have been discussed for a long time that how to deal with the uncivilized behaviors during the travel, such as write on the place of historic interests, or claim to old trees. This kind of things happened in China more often than any other countries. What can we do to prevent those actionsThough we have advocate education of the tourists for years, the situation was not better than be imagined. In my opinion, we still have to encourage the education of our tourists, but with some change. For example, we should not only disseminate “Don’t Do Sth.”, but also with the reason and an explanation that it is not cool to sign names or words everywhere, in the contrary, we have to ashamed of that. Make a comparison between foreigners and us can also increase our consciousness.

consider... 考虑

2、7天长假好吗 （旅游途中人满为患的拥堵等）？

Some people can use the seven days reading books or studying, and you know when they are working, they dont have time to do it.

Since most people dont have other vacation time, everybody is travelling during the week-long holidays, so at the beginning and the end of the holidays, place such like airports, train station, long-distance bus station are often over-crowd, for example, in last labor day holiday i went to beach. I want to enjoy the beauty of the seashores and was planning to swim, but when I reached the long-distance bus station, I found that people were everywhere. I swore I would never go travelling in a week-long holiday again.

3、自助游还是报团游

With peoples living standard raised more and more in the recent years, they tend to choose travelling in their spare time. Some people like to choose package tour, while others prefer independent tour.

Actually, both package tour and independent tour have their own advantages and disadvantages, which is largely dependent on peoples time, money, and the number of people who plan to be on a tour.

As for me, I am in favor of package tour, because the travel agency will help me arrange for anything about the tour, including the tickets for the train or airplane, for hotels, and for sightseeing. And what I should do is just enjoy the whole journey without worrying about the details.

A work crew consisting of 150 volunteers worked for eight hours in a light drizzle on Saturday to clean Carson Creek of almost nine tons of debris. “A job well done,” smiled Alan Specter, the director of the event. “We’re scheduled to come back here one more time, three years from now. Of course, we hope that there won’t be nine tons of garbage next time.”

The garbage came in all shapes, sizes, and colors: cans, bottles, bicycles, car tires, autobatteries, sofas, furniture, clothing, shopping carts, bowling balls, plastic bags, dolls, baby carriages, TV antennas, and portable radios. There was even a golf bag with a full set of golf clubs.

Much of the backbreaking work was done by two community groups—the Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts, and two environmental groups—Save the Bay and Watch the Whales. Concerned retirees and volunteers from police and fire departments assisted. Everyone was issued boots, gloves, and rain gear. The work occurred along a two-mile stretch of streambed. The debris was hauled roadside, where trucks lined up to take the trash to the landfill. More than 500 big yellow trash bags were filled.

No one found anything of great value, although a five-year-old boy found an earring that he thought might be worth a million dollars because it was so shiny. He said he would sell it. Then he would donate half of the proceeds to Watch the Whales, and use the other half to buy a triple-scoop ice cream cone every day for the rest of his life.

20 July 2006

Dear Mr. Wang,

Thank you for taking the time to write your wonderful letter in support of MCEA (Maywood Chinese Education Association). Your letter clearly articulates all the major reasons children in Maywood will benefit from studying the Chinese language as part of their elementary school education. It provides invaluable support that will help making bilingual Chinese education a reality in Maywood public schools.

Although MCEA would like to see Palo Alto public schools implement the first bilingual Chinese kindergarten class in September of 2006, we have learned that the school district must take the time to understand how a new program will affect existing educational offerings, and to validate community interest. Nevertheless, MCEA, with more than 70 members, will continue to actively promote bilingual Chinese education in the Palo Alto public schools and will keep you apprised of the progress we make.

Thanks again for sending a letter in support of MCEA. We will continue to do all we can to realize this program both for families of Chinese descent and those with a general interest in participating in the growing economic power of China.

Yours sincerely,

George Chen

My father is a typical man, who is not very talkative. When other fathers

say how much they love their children, my father just keep quiet. He barely says

sweet words to me. But he will never miss every important moment for me, like

the performance in school. He is always one of the audience and watch my

performance. My father tells me to study with passion and he sets the good

example for me, because he loves his work. Sometimes he shows me his design of

work, and I admire him. I know my father loves me so much. Though he doesnt

talk much, he will be right by my side whenever I need him.
