First of all,I need to greatly improve my English in this semaster,for I’m already in Junior 2 now,and there’s no time to waste.

I’m really not good at English,and I think there’s a long road ahead of me.I am thinking about taking a TOEFL course on weekends to prepare for entering college.Besides,I need to learn something from my life,for example,I can read some kind of English books,watch some Enghlish movies etc.

On another hand,I wanna improve my spoken English,cuz its a kind of language which is used to communicate with others,but not just a subject that can prove I am a good student.My plan for the future is to study abroad,so the skill of spoken Enlish is really important to me.

Today we stay at home and not go to class. Do you know why? By the way, it is just because of the fog.

Haze? Nanjing and other places of dust is overmuch, combined with the dust and fog, becomes the haze, inhaled into people get lung disease, asthma and other respiratory diseases.

Recently, pm2.5 is close to the extraordinary, in nanjing today at 3 o clock in the morning, pm2.5 has reached 466 micrograms of a cubic meters, entered the serious pollution, pm2.5 is one of the "culprit" haze weather. Not just the pm2.5 exceeds bid badly, pm10 has recently started to crazy, 3 a.m. yesterday, pm10 has reached 579 micrograms of a cubic meters, the nanjing the worst pollution index was about to break! In addition, the sky appeared a "mock sun"! Is too much because floats in the sky. If nanjing on October 1, the sky is blue, so today in nanjing will be gray and a piece of the sky.

Fog not only have an effect on the human body, many planes, ships, cars and so on all cant normal travel. Nanjing lukou airport has 53 flights affected by haze on time boot. Many highways have been closed, the highest visibility on the streets of only 10 meters the following, the car travel is very inconvenient. Hundreds of ships to stay in the Yangtze river in zhenjiang. The influence of the fogs really big ah!

We air pollution index of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze river has been more than the north, like tianjin, Beijing, hebei and other provinces, cities have been we left behind. The factory in the north is more, to produce a lot of dust, according to the reason for the northern cities should air pollution is the most "powerful", can be in November to December Chinas worst air index, almost all is our "occupy" in jiangsu province.

Now that the fog is so terrible, we should also consider what to do! 1, when faced with heavy fog, the first thing to hide the fog haze. Haze days dont go out as far as possible, dont get up early to exercise more. 2, mask is fog out of necessity. Will always wearing surgical masks, but not always wearing a mask, only on the road, a lot of bacteria such as hospital, pm2.5 wear a lot of place, at other times, try to put in my pocket.

This is the fog haze, a great influence on our body, we must learn to prevent it! That is why our school classes.

今天我们同学都留在家里不去上课。你们知道为什么吗?对了，就是因为雾霾。

雾霾是什么呢?南京等地的灰尘过多，而雾跟这些灰尘相结合，就变成了霾，人大量吸入会得肺病、哮喘等呼吸道疾病。

最近，南京的pm2.5接近爆表，到了今天凌晨3点，pm2.5已经达到了466微克一立方米，进入了严重污染，pm2.5是雾霾天气的“罪魁祸首”之一。不仅仅是pm2.5超标严重，pm10最近也开始疯狂起来，昨天凌晨3点，pm10已经达到了579微克一立方米，这项指标就快要破南京最差污染了!而且，天上还出现了一个“幻日”!就是因为天空中的漂浮物过多而形成的。如果说10月1日的南京的天空是湛蓝的，那么今天南京的天空将是灰蒙蒙地一片。

不仅雾霾对人体有影响，许多飞机、船只、汽车等都不能正常出行。南京禄口机场已有53个航班受雾霾影响不能准点开机。许多条高速公路都已经关闭，街头的最高能见度才仅仅10米即以下，这让汽车出行非常不方便。数百只船只停留在长江镇江段。雾霾的影响可真大呀!

我们长江中下游的空气污染指数已经超过了北方，像天津、北京、河北等省、市都已经被我们落在后面。北方的工厂较多，会排出很多的灰尘，按道理来讲北方城市应该空气污染是最“强”的，可11月到12月中国的空气最差指数，几乎全部是我们江苏“占领”的。

既然雾霾这么可怕，我们也应该想想该怎么办吧!1、当遇到浓雾天气，首先要躲雾霾。雾霾天尽量不要出门，更不要早起锻炼。2、口罩是雾天外出的必需品。要常带口罩，但不能常戴口罩，只有在马路上、医院里等病菌很多，pm2.5很多的地方戴，其他时候，尽量放在口袋里。

这就是雾霾，对我们人体影响很大，我们要学会预防它哦!这也就是我们学校为什么停课的原因了。

上个暑假，我和我的家人坐火车去了青岛。那里总是阳光明媚,空气也很清新，令人心情舒畅。我们去了海边，海水和天空一样的蓝，在沙滩上沐浴着阳光，是件很享受的事儿。我和妹妹还捡了好多五颜六色的贝壳。我们在这里买了好多有趣的纪念品，我打算送给我的朋友们。我们在这里吃到了很多东西，比如鱼，虾..真的很美味。

我们住在一个干净整洁的旅馆里，而且价格不是很昂贵。

我很喜欢这里，如果有机会我还希望可以再次去青岛，这个美丽有趣的地方。

Last summer vacation,my family and I went to Qingdao by train.There was always sunshine and fresh air,which made us so comfortable.We went to the seaside,the sea was as blue as the sky,and bathing in the sunshine on the beach, was really an enjoyable thing.I also picked up a lot of colorful shells with my little sister.There we bought many interesting souvenirs,I was planing to send them to my friends.We ate many tings there,such as fish,prawn,and so on.They are very delicious.Then we lived in a clean and tidy hotel,and the price was not so expensive.I like Qingdao very much,and if I got a chance,I hope to come here again,it is such a beautiful and interesting place.

When I see the girls dance in the movie, I will be very jealous of their elegant temperament. I wish I am one of them, especially when my mother speaks highly of these dancing girls. Actually, my mother once had tried to send me to learn ballet, but I was too small and couldn’t enjoy the class. I always skipped the class and then went to play with my friends. Later my mother found the truth and she had gave up asking me to learn ballet. Now I feel regretful, if I insist, I could be the girl that let my parents be proud of. The lucky thing is that I have find the things I am interested in and I will not give up.

当我看到电影里的女孩跳舞,我会很嫉妒他们的优雅气质。我希望我是其中一员,特别是当我的母亲很崇敬这些跳舞的女孩时。实际上,母亲曾经试图送我学习芭蕾,但是我太小了,不懂得享受这个课程。我总是旷课,然后去和我的朋友去玩。后来妈妈发现了真相,她放弃了让我学习芭蕾。现在我后悔了,如果我坚持,我可以成为让我的父母感到骄傲的女孩。幸运的是,我已经找到了我感兴趣的事情,不会放弃。

After a long cold winter when I have rarely been out on my bike, the weather has finally turned warmer and even sunny occasionally. Yesterday I had a surprise call from Tom suggesting we turn out for a short ride. This being my intention anyway I gladly agreed and we met up at Jiedaokou Station at about ten o’clock.

As Tom has a permanent Sunday Lunch appointment at 12-30pm we opted to make a round trip to Hannan . The weather was cloudy but dry and as we were both a bit out of condition after a long winter lay off we took the easy option of taking the train to Shiyan to get us on top of the ridge with an easy start for the trip.

A long coast down to Jiangtan and straight on to Mount End saw us climbing up to Zhongshan Park. The climb got stiffer but still Tom kept on riding. Gritting my teeth I followed on and crested the hill, Then the usual Essex switchback with an enforced short walk for both of us part way along saw us at Tawny common. Round the common we went, to the Mole Trap, an erstwhile rough old country pub now tarted up for the motorists. I don’t go in there any more, so we sat on the adjacent public seat for a while and a short natter.

Time enough to break away, Tom to his lunch appointment, me for home by way of theYellow Crane Tower and Changjiang Bridge. See you in a while, crocodile! I arrived home about 2 o’clock. Just in time for my own Sunday lunch .

Many people have favorite places they like to go to when they are feeling

sad or bored. I also have favorite places that I go to as often as I can.

Here are the three places that I like most. First of all, I like the zoo.

The animals are amazing because some are so cute and some are so ugly! I like to

pet them,feed them and watch them perform. Museums are cool places, too. They

have good exhibits and fascinating displays. I like the works of art there. Some

museums teach me a lot about history and science. From dinosaurs to robots, I

love them all. Finally, theme parks are my favourite place. I think the roller

coasters are the best. Its fun to scream and get scared.

These places always cheer me up. I try to go to each of my favorite places

once a year. I am going to find more favorite places to go to when I grow

up.

Every vacation is expected, every holiday is memorable, every holiday is worth remembering, every holiday is colorful, every holiday is wonderful. The long-awaited vacation that really makes people feel relaxed and wanted the bag flew into the air and let him ruin, hate books will be torn in two, with the solution of the heart "stuffy" school for such a long time, always feel like chanting, blankly.

In October 1st, there was an inevitable national day of golden week. I heard from my familys TV that Change two will launch and launch at the Xichang Satellite Launch Center at eighteen fifty-nine, fifty-seven seconds in October 1st this year. I took off at nineteen oclock. When I witnessed the great cause of aviation in China, I remembered the Change No.1. It has applied for more than 10 patents, and more than 80 patents are being applied. The Change two should be better because the times are improving. Ive also heard about the Diaoyu Island in China. - the Diaoyu Islands, the full name of "Diaoyu Islands" shidori called Senkaku islands". The Diaoyu Islands by the Diaoyu Islands, yellow tail Island, Akao Island, South Island, North Island, South Island, North Island and flying Seto island and other islands, a total area of about seven square kilometers. It is located in the east longitude 123 degree - 124 degree 34 ", the north latitude 25 - 4" - 26 degrees.

Think about the history of China and think about Chinas present. Though China is very weak on the surface, if todays president wants to dominate the world, China can still do it.

每一个假期都是令人期待的；每一个假期都是令人难忘的；每一个假期都是值得回味的；每一个假期都是丰富多彩的；每一个假期都是奇妙的。盼望已久的假期一到，真是让人倍感轻松，恨不得让书包飞到空中让他自取灭亡，恨不得将书本撕成两半，以解心头之‘闷’，开学这么长时间了，总觉得像念经，呆呆的。

十月一日，有一个无法忘记的国庆黄金周，这次我在家中的电视中得知了嫦娥二号将于今年十月一日十八时五十九分五十七秒在西昌卫星发射中心点火发射。十九时整起飞，当我亲眼目睹了中国的航空伟业的时候，我又想起了嫦娥一号，它已经申请了十多项专利，而且还有八十多项专利正在申请中，这个嫦娥二号应该会更好，因为时代在进步。我还听说了，中国的xx事见。——xx，全称“xx群岛”，倭人称其为“尖阁列岛”。xx群岛由xx、黄尾岛、赤尾岛、南小岛、北小岛、大南小岛、大北小岛和飞濑岛等岛屿组成，总面积约七平方公里。它位于东经123°——124°34″，北纬25°4″——26°。

想一想中国的历史，想一想中国的现在，中国表面上虽然很弱，但如果今天的主席向称霸世界的话，中国还是可以做到的，只是现在的主席想的只是和平而已。

难忘的初中生活英语作文一

Community service is very common in many countries. It is a voluntary activity to improve the environment of our community and then raise our living standard. Community service has become very important. It can unite the people and increase the responsibility of citizens.

I have done community service once when I was in junior high school. My teacher told us that we were going to clean the streets around the community. It was the first time I learned that we, as members of the community, should help clean and maintain its environment. It is our responsibility to conserve our living conditions. We walked along the streets and picked up all garbage. After we finished the service, I was tired but content, because I felt that I did a really good thing to the community.

The promotion of community service is very important. If we start to promote such work to kids when they are little, it can be more popular. Although community service has become widespread, there are still just a few people who dedicate themselves to it. Citizens should be more responsible, and know that it’s not just some other people’s job to keep the community safe and clean.

Even though it will be tiring and may take a lot of time, you will be delighted after you do a favor for you community. If we all give a hand, the community will become a wonderful place for people to live.

1995 i went into taizhou junior middle school.Totally we had 7 classes,i was in class 4.The head-teacher of the class was a middle age woman.she was so strict with us.for example, i was catched when i ate a big rabbit sugar during class time,she asked me to buy that bland sugar one peice for everyone.in my opinion ,she hated everyting except study,everyweekend ,she asked us to study in school,sunday afternoon was just the free time for us.when she saw we played football,she must get the ball back to her office.someone who was to be in love was found by her,he would be punished just like a shit.luckyly,i was not found by her.i liked the girl who was my Elementary school schoolmate during my junior middle school.i didnt know she konwed or not.it ended when we graduated.but i liked to talk with others during class time,everytime i was found by her,she asked me to write 3000 words to explain why and how to do in future.

nowadyas every time i remeber what happened in my junior middle school,i deeply appreciat her kindness.she is real a good teacher.

my junior middle school time has pasted ,but it will influece till the end of my life.

When we barge up against, don’t trepidation, don’t be scared, and tell the tribulation to our

kiths, they can help you.

Recently, I saw an interested video that was shot by a young foreigner. He

played two roles-a Chinese mother and an American mother. He imitated the

reaction about how the mothers treated their children in education. It was so

obvious that Chinese mothers took care of their children all the time and they

would do all the things for them. While the American mothers focused on the

childrens independence. They would ask the kids to do housework and when they

grew up, they asked the kids to move out. Both parents showed different ways to

love their children and their love was equal, for every mother is a great

heroine.

Third, I have been standing at a fork mouth of life. Looking back, looking at the footprints of your own growth, it does mean something. Love is Xin Qijis "ugly girl", his first words as we age children from small to large portrait.

"The young do not sorrow taste". Childhood, from just remember to middle school, always feel carefree. Hungry, looking forward to dinner; thirsty, looking forward to drinking water; scared, looking forward to Mom coming; frightened, looking forward to Dads side. These, call it, or just show it with tears and cry, will be able to get satisfactory results. Childhood is so simple, and it is so real. A little bigger, become a teenager, looking forward to be praised by the teacher, looking forward to the applause of the students, looking forward to full marks. When I was praised, like psychological flow with honey; whenever there is out, it went to the jubilant mom and dad to show off a beam with joy. At that time, how simple and innocent.

Now, the childhood in my mind has become an eternal memory, the dream of the flower season is also like a distant landscape, childhood wind like, feel, but can not see, can not touch, there are countless ways of life before, I have to walk with heavy steps wandering. Just like the taste of sorrow now". So, what about the future? Is it to open up life or to enjoy life? Yue Feis sake, Gou hardships, let me dance, father chose the former; comfortable air conditioning, cola fun, crispy potato chips, the excitement of the game so I choose the latter. Both steady stand in the balance at both ends, not the severity of the conflict scale blocking my schedule. Secondary education in less than a year will end after nine years of baptism we have strong body, sucking countless knowledge in the motherland to defeat in the mighty wave crashing on a sandy shore,? No, can not, the process of growth is painful, "enjoy life" although intoxicating, but if our youth long drunk, do not laugh for people?

Therefore, in the face of growth, we must bravely overcome the idea of ease in mind, and open up a perfect life course.

Li Xiaohu spent too much time playing computer games and he fell behind

others. As a good/close friend of his， I must do something to help him.

First， I think it’s very important for him to learn lessons well. He should

spend most of his time on his study instead of computer games.

Secondly， I must tell him that playing computer games too much is bad for

his health， especially for his eyes. So he must give it up. I can play more

sports with him after school. Maybe he will become more interested in sports

than computer games. And then I‘ll ask him to concentrate more on his study. Of

course， I will try my best to help him with all his subjects. I think I can do

it in many fun ways and let him find much fun in studying. At the same time，

I’ll ask both his parents and our teachers to help him， too. If I try these， Im

sure he will make great progress soon.

Before I entered the middle school, I felt so worried about the life in middle school, because my cousin told me that I would have to compete with so many excellent students.

Now I get used to the life, I learn many subjects from Monday to Friday.

Though I always meet the difficulties in learning the new knowledge, I get help from my teachers and classmates.

I am not afraid of the middle school life again, I am so excited to learn new things every day.

In the future days, I will meet many challenges, I believe I can get over them. Life in middle school has happiness and sorrow, they fulfill my life.

在我进入初中以前，我很担忧初中的生活，因为我的表姐告诉我我将要和很多优秀的学生进行竞争。如今我适应了初中生活，我从周一到周五学习很多科目。虽然我总是在学习新知识时遇到困难，但是我得到了老师和同学的帮助。我不再害怕初中生活了，我对于每天学到新知识感到兴奋。在将来的日子里，我将会遇到很多困难，我相信我能克服他们。初中的生活有快乐也有忧伤，它们充实了我的生活。

Summer vacation, this is a the students expect long-lost happy time, simply can and play, no more unpleasant sound alarm clock in the morning... But we looked at those high expectations, a less-pressured treasure mom, has arranged everything for us: early in the morning to go to remedial class, noon to classes every day and every day go to remedial classes in the afternoon. I every day in ask him, who invented the remedial class! Deprived of the time I watch TV, if let me know who it is, I will regard that man as my enemy.

暑假，本是一个们期望己久的时光，可以痛痛快快地玩了，早上再也没有了令人讨厌的闹钟声…可是我们那些望子成龙，望女成凤的宝妈们，却早早为我们安排好了一切﹕每天早上去辅导班，每天中午去辅导班，每天下午去辅导班。我每天在问天问地，到底是谁发明了辅导班!剥夺了我看电视的，如果让我知道是谁，我要把那个人视为我的仇人。

Our class have had a discussion about whether we can use mobile phones.

Some students think it is good to use mobile phones because they can take

photos with them in our daily life. They can also listen to music to relax

themselves in free time. Besides, using mobile phones makes it easy to keep in

touch with their parents and friends.

But some others dont think so. They think students shouldnt use mobile

phones. Using mobile phones too much is bad for their eyes and its a waste of

time to chat with friends. Sometimes some students use mobile phones to play

games. It will have a bad effect on study.

In my opinion, I think wed better not use mobile phones. We should spend

more time on our study instead of using mobile phones.

Autumn came, the autumn girl jumped and jumped, happy to throw a long hair to come! Her hair thrown where, where is a harvest scene.

Autumn rain come! Datong farmer uncle laughed Yan, their hard to grow vegetables, fruit will be harvested! Rain passionate poured farmers uncles vegetables, fruit, sweet rain to moisten them, the fields The vegetables were greener; the fruits of the trees were more fragrant; the peasants were more happy.

The young men and girls in the big cities are standing in the rain to enjoy the rain drift. Like soybeans, playing on people who are itchy, cool; like nectar, fall in peoples mouth sweet, slippery. Some people let go voice shouting: ah! Really cool! Finally survive the hot summer! Is not it!

And that naughty children wearing rain boots hard to step on the water, from time to time splashing from the high water. And some children take advantage of others walking in the tree, the hard to shake the tree, so that the rain on the tree like a broad bean hit the passers-by. They can be really naughty it!

They are moisturizing the flowers and trees that will wither, and pull them back from the edge of death, and their leaves are slowly stretched to make them fresh. Back to the green they exposed a smile, nodded in the rain, as if to say, thank you! Thank you!

Watching them happy look, I am also happy from ear to ear!

My Home Town

My home town is a beautiful place. It stands beside a wide river and is rich in fish and rice.

But in the old days it was a poor and backward little town. Many people had no work. They lived a hard life.

In 1949 my hometown was liberated. Since then great changes have taken place there. The streets have been widened. Factories, schools, hospitals, cinemas and theatres have sprung up one after another. The life of the people is greatly improved.

I love my hometown. All the more I love its people. They are working hard so as to make it still richer and more beautiful.

Once a child asked such a question: What can I benefit from being "a good

child"? Among the many answers he received one ran like this: "A good child" is

the most precious gift God gives to you. And the same can be said for being

honest. It pays to be honest.

Yes, its true that dishonesty exists almost everywhere in the society.

Consumers often found themselves being blackmailed by those merchants selling

shoddy products; and there are students

Cheating in order to pass the exams or get high marks; moreover, we are not

short of examples that many rich professionals evade the taxes by sacrificing

the interests of government.

But havent we seen their results? "A fall into the pit, a gain in

customers wit", which would surely drive those dishonest merchants out of

business. Regret of wasting time yet being

Empty-handed would accompany those dishonest students all their life. On

the contrary, we could have all they lost, especially a good reputation and a

clear conscience, which are the best qualities of human beings. Thats why we

say "It Pays to Be Honest".
