in China. Have you ever been to Guilin? If the answer is no, don’t worry about

it. Please come on, I am very glad to be you guide .Welcome to our city!

In my college, I majored in Tourism and English. I want to be a tour guide

when I graduate from my college. Because Im a lovely girl and I like to travel

to different places. I have about ten courses to learn this term. What about

you?

I have a lot of hobbies. In my spare time, I often go sightseeing, play

badminton and go out running. Sometimes go shopping or stay at home. I also like

reading and planting flowers. Do you have the same hobby with me? If you want to

介绍自己英语作文篇20

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls. Now, it’s my turn. My

name is Edgar, a high school student. I am much honored to be here to give you a

speech. Also its a good chance for me to improve my English. I hope I can make

a good performance today. The topic of my speech is "After studying here".

Before I came here, I can never imagine that I can learn so much knowledge

about other countries, which cant be got from my books in school. Three months

ago, I took my first class. Unfortunately, I felt so embarrassed, because I even

cant speak any words, though I know I really love English.

After that, I took some of my tutors advice and previewed the lesson that

I’ll learn. What’s more, in every class, I JUST try my best to say as much as

possible. Now, I can only remember it’s a really hard time. What’s worse, I had

to go to my high school and went there at the same time.

After several weeks, I began to get used to the atmosphere in web .At least

Im not afraid to speak in front of my tutor and foreign teachers.

During web’s period, I found I had improved a lot, both physically and

mentally. For example, how to be a confident person, how to plan for my future.

And the most important is that I have learnt how to communicate with others,

which is a necessary skill. Nowadays studying is not the only thing that we high

school students should do, there are some more important things we have

ignored.

First, I am grateful for my parents. They have spent so much money for me,

but never ask for anything in return. I really know how hard it is to work on

such living conditions.

Now it’s time to introduce my tutor sally. It was she that led me to the

right studying here. It was she that helped me deal with all kinds of annoying

things. Also there are some other teachers that I appreciate, especially Laura

and Anita. Of course, I like to take foreign teachers classes. Anyway, thanks

all of you!

I know I am young; there is a long way in my life. I have to face the

difficulties and solve them by myself. But I know I must keep on my dream, I

agree that If you put your mind to, you can accomplish anything.

I know I’m not the best ,but I’m the most diligent one,I hope you can

remember me, an ordinary boy.

大家好,我的名字叫ljs,今年10岁了。

我爱读书,每天中午和晚上,我都会抱着课外书坐在凳子上聚精会神地看。我非常爱画画,空闲的时候就会抱着画夹在上面画一些山水树木和动物,不过画得也不是太好看。每一个人都有优点和缺点,我当然也不例外。每次打扫卫生,我都会干得热火朝天,不像有的同学扫一扫就不想扫了,觉得太累了,干不动。有一次学校组织大扫除,我拿上水桶、抹布、洗衣粉、刷子和手套。我在水桶里盛上水,放上洗衣粉,把抹布和刷子泡入水中,等浸湿了,才拿出来刷墙。当大扫除结束时,我已经腰酸背痛了,但是看着自己刷干净的墙壁,心里面却特高兴

我的缺点就是贪玩和馋嘴。先说贪玩吧,有一次我下楼去玩,妈妈让我七点回来,可是我觉得时间还早,于是继续在下面玩。那时候我还戴着手表呢!当我看表时,吓了一大跳:“啊!已经八点了。”我急忙回家,等到了家一看,爸爸已经下班回来了,他和妈妈已经吃过饭了,正在等我回来呢。再说馋嘴吧,有一年我过生日的时候,妈妈给我买了个生日蛋糕,因为大人们还没回来,我做小辈的也不敢吃,于是我便问奶奶想不想吃蛋糕,奶奶说:“想!”我用手抠了一块奶油给奶奶吃,可奶奶只吃了一丁点儿,剩下的就全给了我,这正是我所想的。

这就是我——一个爱读书、爱画画、贪玩和馋嘴以及爱劳动的boy!

走进实验中学七四班,你可以看到一个高个子的男生,他有两只元宝似的大耳朵,浓眉下有一双不大而有神的眼睛,高高的鼻下有一张看似会说的小嘴。我是一个阳光的男孩。我对蓝色情有独钟,因为蓝色代表着宽广的天空和辽阔的大海,所以我的心也要变得如此豪放。

我非常爱搞笑,记得在小学六年级的一个中午,我提高了嗓门站在讲台上喊:“从前有一只母鸡,它呀下了一个蛋,不是(窝)生的,也不是(喔)的,更不是(握)生的。”以前反应特慢的xxx,今天反应特别的快,那不就是(我)生的了吗!”我说:“回答正确是你生的。”逗得全班同学哈哈大笑。xxx知道真相后气愤不已,恨不得把我暴打一顿。

我也是一个爱体育的人,在体育中我爱乒乓球、跑步、跳绳……但我最爱体育中的篮球,体育课上你们看见一个篮球队员在球场上一往无前的跑着,只听一声“进了”的呐喊声,球就进入了敌队的球篮筐,哪个队员就是我。我跑步快投球准,所以被球队认为先锋。

我还是个忘性子的人,有一天傍晚,妈妈让我去买一根香肠,回来给我们做菜,于是我拿着钱兴冲冲地跑了出去,路过广场看见有打篮球的,我的手发痒,心想时间还早,于是停下来加入了他们的行列高高兴兴地玩起来,早把买香肠的事抛到了九霄云外。打球结束后回到家我向妈妈兴奋地说起刚才打球的事,我还在陶醉着呢!接下来妈妈问:“香肠呢?”我这才想起买香肠的事。妈妈直数落我是个忘性子,我害的一家只好吃泡面了。对于我的忘性子希望大家以后多多包涵。

以后如果大家有什么不开心的事,都可以随时来找我,只要我给大家讲一个笑话,保证能逗你捧腹大笑,所有的不开心都会挥之而去。自我介绍完毕,同学们你们了解我了吗?

各位同学们,大家好,我的名字叫计诚智。在学校里,这是我与大家的快1年的认识了,想必大家对我还不是很熟悉。所以,下面我就为大家做一个简单的自我介绍

我今年14岁,圆圆的脸上,镶嵌着一双炯炯有神的小眼睛。我的眉毛又黑又粗,好似两把大扫帚,在圆圆的鼻子下面,长着一张能说会道的嘴巴。

我生活在一个甜蜜的四口之家中,我的舅舅是一位老师,在大学工作,也就是现在所处的杭州师范大学。我的姐姐呢,是一个品学兼优的学生今年在中学读高中一年级。

我生性好动,是个开朗活泼的孩子。我酷爱体育运动,尤其是球类这一方面的。比如:足球、篮球、羽毛球、乒乓球、台球……也由于开朗活泼的缘故,我很爱笑,一笑起来,那双小小的眼睛就眯成了一条缝。

我喜欢打球,特别喜欢打乒乓球。曾经是我们学校的冠军手,大人们夸我还真有点体育的精神呢。我听了,心里美滋滋的。

我的缺点是上课不敢大胆发言,考试时不仔细。就拿语文第二单元考试来说吧,我有些会写的词都写错了,作文还写走了题呢。所以那次考得实在不理想。我已经在努力改掉这些缺点了,争取做个更好的学生。

我特别喜欢和别人打赌。输了,嘟着嘴巴就走。要是赢了,笑得眼睛变成了一条细缝。有一次,我和同学打赌,这位同学说身上有500元钱,我想 :“谁会有这么多钱呀,分时是吹牛”。就让他把钱掏出来看看。果然不出我所料,他对我说:“我是骗你的”。这时,我笑着高呼:“我赢了!我赢了!”

各位同学,既然我们分在了一个班级中,就应当在学习中相互交流,在生活中相互扶持帮助,我的目标是在几年后的中、高考中考出优异的成绩,为家人争光。可是,要想取得优异的成绩,就得付出艰辛的努力,为此,我将坚持不懈。朋友,那你的目标是什么呢,你愿不愿意为之付出努力吗?让我们一起努力吧!

这就是我,一个开朗活泼的男孩,愿为目标而付出努力的人。

The Lantern Festival falls on the 15th day of the 1st lunar month, usually

in February or March in the Gregorian calendar. As early as the Western Han

Dynasty (206 BC-AD 25), it had become a festival with great significance.

This days important activity is watching lanterns. Throughout the Han

Dynasty (206 BC-AD 220), Buddhism flourished in China. One emperor heard that

Buddhist monks would watch sarira, or remains from the cremation of Buddhas

body, and light lanterns to worship Buddha on the 15th day of the 1st lunar

month, so he ordered to light lanterns in the imperial palace and temples to

show respect to Buddha on this day. Later, the Buddhist rite developed into a

grand festival among common people and its influence expanded from the Central

Plains to the whole of China.

Till today, the lantern festival is still held each year around the

country. Lanterns of various shapes and sizes are hung in the streets,

attracting countless visitors. Children will hold self-made or bought lanterns

to stroll with on the streets, extremely excited. "Guessing lantern riddles"is

an essential part of the Festival.

Lantern owners write riddles on a piece of paper and post them on the

lanterns. If visitors have solutions to the riddles, they can pull the paper out

and go to the lantern owners to check their answer. If they are right, they will

get a little gift. The activity emerged during peoples enjoyment of lanterns in

the Song Dynasty (960-1279). As riddle guessing is interesting and full of

wisdom, it has become popular among all social strata.

People will eat yuanxiao, or rice dumplings, on this day, so it is also

called the "Yuanxiao Festival."Yuanxiao also has another name, tangyuan. It is

small dumpling balls made of glutinous rice flour with rose petals, sesame, bean

paste, jujube paste, walnut meat, dried fruit, sugar and edible oil as filling.

Tangyuan can be boiled, fried or steamed. It tastes sweet and delicious. What’s

more, tangyuan in Chinese has a similar pronunciation with "tuanyuan”, meaning

reunion. So people eat them to denote union, harmony and happiness for the

family.

In the daytime of the Festival, performances such as a dragon lantern

dance, a lion dance, a land boat dance, a yangge dance, walking on stilts and

beating drums while dancing will be staged. On the night, except for magnificent

lanterns, fireworks form a beautiful scene. Most families spare some fireworks

from the Spring Festival and let them off in the Lantern Festival. Some local

governments will even organize a fireworks party. On the night when the first

full moon enters the New Year, people become really intoxicated by the imposing

fireworks and bright moon in the sky.
