高二英语作文：铭记南京大屠杀（汇集20篇）

As a Senior Three student, time seems much limited. As a result, more and

more students try to study from early morning till late afternoon, even during

the ten-minute break. In my opinion, to take a ten-minute break between classes

is definitely necessary. Otherwise we will feel tired both physically and

mentally. During the ten-minute break, we do something to get rid of tiredness.

What we need is to have a real rest, instead of getting more tired. So doing

nothing tiring in that period is really good for us. My ten-minute break is

always pleasing. Sometimes I do some simple exercises. Sometimes I have a free

chat with my classmates or just take a walk outside. When the next class begins,

I feel fresh again.

From the sixteenth of January to the seventh of February is our Winter

Holiday. I think everybody did a lot of things in the Winter Holiday. But I

didnt. Let you to listen to my story of Winter Holiday.

I spend a lot of time on the homework… Every day in my Winter Holiday，I

always got up late. Then I listened to the tape，it was nine oclock. Then I ate

breakfast and then I did my homework during the daytime!I’m not very slow but

the homework was too heavy!

Im unlucky on the playing too. I played firecracker but I hurt my finger

with the fire. Im careless to kindle the firecracker，so Im very unlucky.

I still unlucky on my friends party. In the morning，I wanted to get up

early but I woke up at 10：50. After ten minutes，the party would start! So I only

eat a piece of bread then I go to my friend’s home!And I stay at his home for a

long time when I came home. My mother and father were very angry and they

scolded me!

Im worried and feel unlucky on my weigh. Last term，I was 48 kilogram but

now I am 51 kilogram!I must to do banting!

But most important，I have gone to Shanghai Ocean Aquarium，I want to go

there very much because I want to see the horse，the monkey…in the sea. Now Ive

As the development of Internet, people like to use computer every day, they search the Internet and know more about the instant news.

The Internet also helps people give their own opinion on the hot issues, some new words are created. Zhai Nan is a very popular word, it means the people who are staying at home all the time, they are less going out.

People can buy what they want by the computer and the goods they have bought can deliver to their home. So more and more people are like to staying at home, playing computer or watching TV, they will feel uneasy when communicate to others.

Zhai Nan is not a good word, these people’s lifestyle is not healthy, they should go out more and have the normal activity with others. Getting rid of Staying at home brings people the healthy life.

随着电脑的发展，人们喜欢每天使用电脑，他们搜索电脑，了解更多的及时新闻。

网络也帮助人们，让他们对热点进行讨论，一些新的词汇会被创造。“宅男”就是一个很流行的词汇，意思指那些整天呆在家的人，他们很少出去。

人们可以通过电脑买到他们想要买的，买的产品也可以快递到家里。因此越来越多的人喜欢呆在家里，玩电脑或者看电视，他们和别人交流会感到不自在。

“宅男”不是一个好词，这些人的生活方式也不健康，他们应该多出去走走，和别人进行正常的交流活动。摆脱宅男一族能给人们带来健康的生活。

It’s normal that we all have our own interests and it’s various from people to people. Some people may be interested in sports and some others in music or literature. In short, it’s good for us to have our own interests or hobbies and it means a lot. For one thing, having some interests can bring us a sense of belonging, for it’s your own thing and no one can carry off from you. For another, interest is our best teacher. If you like something, you have the desire to go deep to it. Last, developing interest is a good way to make friends with who have something in common. You can share and be shared, which is an inspiring process and experience.

Chinese First Spaceman

When I was in high school, one day, my Chinese teacher was so excited to tell us that our country’s first spaceman had landed the space successfully. Hearing the news, all the students felt excited, too, we were so proud that we were Chinese, it meant that our country had stepped into the new stage. Chinese first spaceman was Yang Liwei, at that time, all the news was talking about him, they watched him flied to the space and then came back safely. I did not have the chance to witness the process, because I had class at that time, but I was thinking about it all the time. Now many years have passed, more and more Chinese spacemen have flied to the space successfully, every time I will feel very excited, I am so happy to see our country become stronger.

当我上高中的时候，有一天，我的语文老师很兴奋地告诉我们我国的第一个宇航员已经成功地登上了外太空。听到这个消息，所有的学生都感到很兴奋，我们为自己是中国人而感到自豪，这意味着我们的国家已经进入了新的阶段。中国的第一个宇航员叫杨利伟，在那个时候，所有的新闻都是报道了他，人们观看了他登上太空并安全返回的过程。我没有机会目睹整个过程，因为我当时有课，但是我一直在想着这件事。如今很多年过去了，越来越多的中国宇航员成功登上了太空，每一次我都会感到很兴奋，我很高兴看到我们国家变得强大。

With the rapid development and the overpopulated in this society, more and

more people rushing into the big cities for personal development. So, the

housing problems in the big cities is becoming more and more serious.

In my humble opinion, there are several ways to slove this problems. First

of all, we can expend the cities, and build more apartment in the country. The

fresh air and clean water will attract young people to live there. What’ more,

the housing price will be lower than the big cities. Second, the government

should control the price of the house. If the house is too expensive, many

people may not be able to afford a house on their own. The government should

build some cheap apartment for the poor, the young people. Last but not least,

we should have more skyscapes, the land is limited, we need more space to

support people to have a good living condition.

A good living condition is the key to social stability. if our country have

enough houses, the pressure can be relieved to some degree. And our people can

live a better environment.

To be successful, students learn many knowledge so as to master as more

skills as possible. Some believe that the key to realize our dreams is to work

hard and others treat chance in the first place. While today is the information

world, the one who masters the all-sided source will have more chances to be

successful. In my opinion, the most important skill is the social skill, because

we need to make connection with others, we are not doing business with

ourselves, so it is in need of having relationship with others. The good social

skill can help us attract attention easily and impress the future partner. If we

are bad in communicating, how can we let others know our advantages and trust

us. So promoting ourselves is the first job, from now on, don’t be shy.

In China, students work so hard, they study day and night, for the purpose of getting the high mark, so that they can go to a better school, which will bring them more promising future. To get the study time as more as possible, some students move their books to the study room, they want to occupy the seat, so they put a lot of books as the sign that the seat has been taken by someone, other people can’t take this seat. In my opinion, studying hard is a good thing, working hard will lead people to success, while taking the seat for a long time is not a civilized behavior. It is a kind of wasting resource, when students are not here, but the seats are empty, they should be left for other students to study.

在中国，学生很努力学习，他们白天和晚上都在学习，只为了得到更高的分数，这样他们就可以进入到更好地学校，能给他们带来更加光明的前途。为了尽可能地更多时间学习，一些学生把他们的书本搬到了自习室，他们想要占位置，所以他们放了很多书，作为位置已被人占有的象征，别人不能做这个位置。在我看来，努力学习是一件好事，努力工作能让人们成功，但是长时间的占据位置不是文明的行为。这有点浪费资源，当学生不在学习时候，位置也是空的，他们应该把位置让给别的学生来学习。

Before the summer vocation coming , I expierence so much,Such as being a teacher ,holding ceremony for our graduate ,joinning cet 6,I recon that I am more and more mature and confidence.

The last summer vocation ,I should have been gone to Guangzhou and open my horizon like feel the sense of sitting train ,subway ,seeing sea and soon on,I have ever done so many daydreams in my life,however ,unfortunately,I have to stay changsha ,due to a succession of subjective and obejective reasons.

Never mind ,I don’t care abot where I stay , as long as I happy with my life,I can learn some communications means enough.

The last summer vocation deserve to me treature,I should depict colourful and marverlous frame ,adding kinds of tastes into my daily life ,It lead me optimistic more.

We are living in a globalized world and the cross-cultural communications are increasing nowadays. In other words， we have never been so closely connected with each other in the human histories. As a philosopher has pointed out， nobody is an isolated island. If we want to have a bright future， we need more cooperation for the development. Therefore， team spirit is very important. It is an bility that people can understand each other and cooperate with each other for the successful completion of some important tasks.We need such kind of ability in particular during the globalization for several reasons.

我们生活在全球化的世界中，跨文化交流越来越常见。换句话说，在人类历史中，我们还没有如此紧密地链接在一起。就如一位哲学家所说的，没有人与外界孤立。如果我们想拥有广阔的未来，我们需要合作。所以，团队的精神非常重要。为了重大目标的完成，我们需要互相协作。在全球化的背景下，我们需要某种特殊的能力。

First of all， team spirit offers us a platform where we can operate our collective talent to work out thebest. Only when we work effectively together can we have the best chance to get the success. Taking the 2008 Beijing Olympics for example， I think the success of the event first goes to the superb team spirit of the organizers and millions of volunteers.So many people work hard and cooperate well for the single aim and the solitary goal： an exceptional Olympics for the whole world. A lot of student volunteers in Beijing are committed and work tirelessly during the hot summer. History has witnessed their brilliant teamwork and valuable contributions.What is more，team spirit is quite useful for personal career.

首先，团队精神提供了我们一个平台，这个平台能够集聚所有人的力量。只有我们努力协作，我们才有可能成功。就拿2008年北京奥运会为例，我认为事件的成功来源于上百万志愿者的协作和团队精神。所以，许多人为了单一目标而协作努力：为全世界奉献了精彩的奥运会。在炎热的夏天，许多志愿者努力工作。历史见证了他们的团队合作，以及卓越贡献。更重要的是，团队精神对于个人的发展也是有意义的。

As young students，we must learn the core and sharpen our skills in the team.If you work in a company，most of the time you have to finish or design a huge project with your colleagues. Each person can contribute their wisdom to the completion of the task. You cannot do it so well single-handedly. When we watchthe Olympic Games on TV， we are so amazed by the excellent performances of the players. If they want to win the gold medals， they must compete as one person and exercise their own part well for the whole success.So we can say the team spirit is the secret of success.

作为一名年轻学生，我们必须学会在团队中锻炼自己的能力。如果你在一家公司工作，那么绝大部分的时间你都必须与其他同事完成重要的设计任务。每个人都为这一目标献出了自己的智慧。你不可能单枪匹马。当我在电视机前观看奥运会比赛时，我们对运动员的出色表现而惊叹不已。如果他们想夺取金牌，为了目标，他们必须通力合作。所以，团队精神是成功的秘诀。

Finally，team spirit is the symbol of national power and strength. As we all know，the Chinese delegationhas won the most medals during the 2008 Olympics and all Chinese people are so proud of our country. Another example is the touching power of the team spirit in the Sichuan earthquake. We were moved by the perseverance and persistence of the rescue workers， who were eager to help their compatriots.

最后，团队精神是国家富强和力量的象征。众所周知，中国代表团在2008年奥运会上奖牌总数第一，中国人无不为此而骄傲。另一个体现团队精神的例子是四川地震。我们被救援人员的坚韧和顽强品质所感染，他们不惜生命的代价抢救伤员。

In conclusion， team spirit is an important ability and skill in the 21th century because we are all facedwith the globalization and the question of how to live better. Therefore， we must learn to work well in the team and let the team spirit guide us to success.

总结，团队精神是21世纪最重要的能力和技能，因为我们都处在全球化的大背景之下，我们的问题时如何生活得更好。所以，我们必须通力协作，只有团队精神才能让我们取得成功。

the family had just moved to rhode island, and the young woman was feeling a little melancholy on that sunday in may. after all, it was mothers day -- and 800 miles separated her from her parents in ohio.

一家人刚移居罗德岛。5月的那个星期天， 年轻女人感到有点儿忧伤。毕竟， 这一天是母亲节─而她却与俄亥俄州的父母亲遥距800英里。

she had called her mother that morning to wish her a happy mothers day, and her mother had mentioned how colorful the yard was now that spring had arrived. as they talked, the younger woman could almost smell the tantalizing aroma of purple lilacs hanging on the big bush outside her parentsback door.

她那天早上给母亲打去电话， 祝母亲节日愉快。随后， 她的母亲向她提起， 因为春天已经来临， 所以院子里的色彩是多么绚丽。在她们通话的当儿， 年轻女人几乎可以闻到悬垂在父母亲后门外大灌木丛上的紫丁香醉人的芬芳。

later, when she mentioned to her husband how she missed those lilacs, he popped up from his chair. i know where we can find you all you want, he said. get the kids and cmon.

so off they went, driving the country roads of northern rhode island on the kind of day only mid-may can produce：sparkling sunshine, unclouded azure skies and vibrant newness of the green growing all around. they went past small villages and burgeoning housing developments, past abandoned apple orchards, back to where trees and brush have devoured old homesteads.

后来， 她向丈夫说起她是如何怀念那些紫丁香时， 他突然从椅子上跃起。我知道在哪儿能找到你想要的东西， 他说， 带上孩子， 走吧。

于是， 他们就出发了， 驱车行驶在罗德岛北部的乡村小路上， 那种天气只有5月中旬才会有：闪亮的阳光、蔚蓝色的晴空以及生机勃勃、随处可见的绿意。他们穿过一座座小村庄和一座座拔地而起的房屋， 穿过废弃的苹果园， 来到了树林和嗄敬匝谟车睦吓

where they stopped, dense thickets of cedars and ju nipers and birch crowded the roadway on both sides. there wasnt a lilac bush in sight.

come with me , the man said. over that hill is an old cellar hole, from somebodys farm of years ago, and there are lilacs all round it. the man who owns this land said i could poke around here anytime. im sure he wont mind if we pick a few lilacs.

他们停下车。车道两边长满了茂盛的雪松、杜松和白桦树。眼前没有一棵紫丁香。

随我来， 那个男人说， 翻过那座小山， 有个老地窖， 几年前是一个人的农场， 四周长满了紫丁香。这块地的主人说我可以随时到这儿来闲逛。我相信， 要是我们采几束紫丁香， 他不会介意。

before they got halfway up the hill, the fragrance of the lilacs drifted down to them, and the kids started running. soon, the mother began running, too, until she reached the top. there, far from view of passing motorists and hidden from encroaching civilization, were the towering lilacs bushes, so laden with the huge, cone-shaped flower clusters that they almost bent double. with a smile, the young woman rushed up to the nearest bush and buried her face in the flowers, drinking in the fragrance and the memories it recalled.

还没等他们到达半山腰， 紫丁香的芬芳已经向他们飘了过来。于是， 孩子们开始奔跑。不久， 那位母亲也开始跑起来， 直至到达山顶。

那里， 远离了过往司机的视野， 避开了纷扰的文明世界， 高耸的丁香花丛开满了硕大的圆锥形的串串花束， 几乎把花茎压成了两折。那个年轻女人微笑着冲到最近的一处花丛， 把脸埋在鲜花中， 啜饮着芳香， 陶醉在重新唤起的记忆中。

while the man examined the cellar hole and tried to explain to the children what the house must have looked like, the woman drifted among the lilacs. carefully, she chose a sprig here, another one there, and clipped them with her husbands pocket knife. she was in no hurry, relishing each blossom as a rare and delicate treasure. finally, though, they returned to their car for the trip home. while the kids chattered and the man drove, the woman sat smiling, surrounded by her flowers, a faraway look in her eyes.

在那个男人察看地窖试图向孩子们解释这座房子必定是什么样子的当儿， 那个女人不由自主地走进了紫丁香花丛。她小心翼翼地从这儿摘一枝， 那儿挑一束， 然后用丈夫的袖珍小刀将它们剪下来。她不慌不忙， 像欣赏稀有珍宝似地欣赏着每一朵花。

然而， 他们终于还是返回了汽车， 走上了回家的路。孩子们叽叽喳喳说个不停， 那个男人驾着车， 那个女人坐在那儿面带微笑， 她周围放满了鲜花， 眼睛里充满着向往。

when they were within three miles of home, she suddenly shouted to her husband, stop the car. stop right here! the man slammed on the brakes. before he could ask her why she wanted to stop, the woman was out of the car and hurrying up a nearby grassy slope with the lilacs still in her arms. at the top of the hill was a nursing home and, because it was such a beautiful spring day, the patients were outdoors strolling with relatives or sitting on the porch.

当他们离家不足3英里时， 她突然向丈夫大声喊道：停车， 就在这里停车!

那个男人嘎地刹住车。还没等他问为什么， 女人就已经下了车， 匆匆走向附近的草坡， 怀里仍抱着紫丁香。山顶上是一家疗养院， 因为这是一个美丽的春日， 所以病人正在室外和亲友溜达或坐在门廊上。

the young woman went to the end of the porch, where an elderly patient was sitting in her wheelchair, alone, head bowed, her back to most of the others. across the porch railing went the flowers, in to the lap of the old woman. she lifted her head, and smiled. for a few moments, the two women chatted, both aglow with happiness, and then the young woman turned and ran back to her family. as the car pulled away, the woman in the wheelchair waved, and clutched the lilacs.

那个年轻女人走到门廊的尽头， 只见那里有一个上了年纪的病人正坐在轮椅里， 独自一人， 低着头， 背对着其他人。年轻女人越过门廊栏杆， 将鲜花放在了老太太的膝间。老太太抬起头， 露出了笑脸。两个女人聊了一会儿， 都兴高采烈。随后， 那个年轻女人转身跑回到家人的身边。当汽车开动时， 坐在轮椅里的那个女人挥动着手， 手里紧紧地握着那束紫丁香花。

mom, the kids asked, who was that?why did you give her our flowers?is she somebodys mother?the mother said she didnt know the old woman. but it was mothers day, and she seemed so alone, and who wouldnt be cheered by flowers?besides, she added, i have all of you, and i still have my mother, even if she is far away. that woman needed those flowers more than i did.

this satisfied the kids, but not the husband. the next day he purchased half a dozen young lilacs bushes and planted them around their yard, and several times since then he has added more.

妈妈， 孩子们问， 那人是谁呀?你为什么把我们的花送给她?她是谁的母亲呀?他们的母亲说， 她不认识那个老太太， 但今天是母亲节， 她看起来是那么孤独， 而鲜花会给任何人带来好心情。再说， 她补充道， 我拥有你们， 而且我还有自己的母亲， 即使她离我很远。那个女人比我更需要那些鲜花。

孩子们得到了满意的答案， 但她的丈夫却没有。第二天， 他买了半打紫丁香幼苗， 栽到了院子四周;而且从那以后， 每隔一段时间， 他就会增加一些。

i was that man. the young mother was, and is, my wife. now, every may, our own yard is redolent with lilacs. every mothers day our kids gather purple bouquets. and every year i remember that smile on a lonely old womans face, and the kindness that put the smile there.

我就是那个男人， 那个年轻母亲是我妻子。如今， 每年5月， 我们自家的院子都会散发出浓烈的紫丁香的芬芳。每逢母亲节， 我们的孩子都要采撷紫丁香花束。而且每年我都会记起一位孤独的老太太脸上露出的笑容， 以及笑容里呈现出的那种慈祥。

In order to make our city cleaner and more beautiful, the young volunteers

of our school went to the Peoples Park this morning and offered our help.

At eight, the head of the park met us at the gate. After being divided into

groups, we set out to work at once. Some tidied up the parking area and had

motorbikes paiked in the right place. Some took care of the flowers and bushes,

and persuaded people to keep off the grass. Around the tiger den, one group kept

order to prevent accidents from happening. At the aquarium, another group worked

as guides and advised visitors not to smoke. When some of us were doing

cleaning, an old man praised us and said, "Well done, young fellows!

We were all tired but happy. What a morning we had today!

Some days ago,it was the Chinese Spring Festival.So I went to shopping with

my parents.the old saying said that to go to outside to have a walk in the new

year,you could get the good luck within this whole year.it always a happy

festival in our country,and the folk in the departments were very happiness. it

was very crowded.we went to the downtown to buy some presents for our

relatives,of course,i got a big present from my parents.it was a thing that i

wanted to get for a long time.you know,it was the festival,so all the

departments were saled their products in a low price. its cheap for us.all the

things you saw were perfect.i was very happy that i could go to shopping with my

parents. because i could get the present,and the most important reason is i

could go with my parents.

In my memory, though my hometown is a small village, it is very beautiful. When I was small, I liked to caught fish in the river, the water was so clean that I could see the fish. As I miss my hometown so much, last week, I went back to my hometown, I found the place in my memory was not like what it was. The trees were not that numerous, the roads became bigger, while there was less place for the river, I saw some dead fish in the river, the water was dirty, the river pollution was so serious! I couldn’t believe it, the beautiful hometown was destroyed by the pollution, it is people’s ambition results in it, they chase for the profit at the cost of polluting the environment. I wish people can pay attention to protect the environment, they are saving themselves, too.

在我的记忆中，虽然我的家乡是个小城镇，但是很美丽。当我还小的时候，我喜欢在河里抓鱼，河水是如此的干净以至于我能看到河里的鱼。由于抵挡不住对家乡的思念，上周，我回到了家乡，我发现我记忆中的城市再也不是它原来的样子了。树没以前的多，道路变得宽阔，然而河道却变得窄些了，我看到河中有一些死掉的鱼，河水是如此的脏，河流污染是如此的严重!我无法相信眼前的一切，美丽的家乡被污染给破坏了，人们的贪念导致了这个结果，他们为了追求利益，不惜以牺牲环境为代价。我希望人们能注意保护环境，这也是在保护他们自己。

Nowadays, we can often hear the discussion whether buying cars should be encouraged. Some people suggest that we should buy cars. But others claim that driving cars is not a wise idea. As far as I am concerned, I am in favor of the latter opinion.

To begin with, there are few parking lots, so the streets are made narrower by the cars parked along the roads. For example, my father could not find any places to park when we went to the supermarket.

Moreover, many drivers do not obey regulations, because people do not pay enough attention to the rule of traffic. For instance, I often see people cross the road when the traffic lights are still red.

Last but not least, the growth of new roads’ construction is usually slower than the increasing number of cars. For example, the length of the road has gone up by 20% in 2002. However, the number of cars increased by 50% in the meantime.

From what has been discussed above, we could draw a conclusion that encouraging buying cars is not fit for today.

The ancient said the world is a book and those who do not travel read only

one page. I like travel, because travel not only allows me to enjoy the great

rivers and mountains of the motherland, but also brings me knowledge and

exercise. Beautiful sceneries make me impressed and friendly people make me

warm. Travel is a process of discovery of beauty that would company my whole

life. I like the feeling on the road, which greatly enrich my life and fields of

vision. Being to different places, seeing different views makes me know how big

the world is, so that I won’t bother my trifles. I think a broad mind is

extremely important to a person, and traveling is a good way to get it. Maybe

some people would say that I travel just because I want to relax. There’s no

doubt about that. No matter for what reason, traveling is attractive to us

all.

I was waiting for the doctor to finish his examination.I was worried and

nervous.Would my father have to operate?Would a blood transfusion be

necessary?What would he have to say?

Dr Lin was a heart expert.He was an excellent doctor and his examinations

were always complete.He listened to the patients heart,took his blood pressure

and temperature,gave him an X-ray and examined his eyes and ears.The doctor

finall completed his examination and spoke to me.He told me that heart trouble

is never a minor illness,but this wasnt a serious heart attack.He advised

losing weight,getting plenty of sleep and eating good meals.Smoking and drinking

would be harmful,of course.Dr Lin said it would be necessary to be careful for a

while,but he was confident that there was nothing to worry about.

I felt much better after I spoke to Dr Lin.I was certain that my father

would be up and around again very soon.Hes seventy five years old now,but he

can still live for a long time if he takes good care of himself.

今天是清明节，我早早的就起床了，穿上校服，戴上红领巾，早早的来到了学校。到了学校以后，老师先让我们排好队，听了校长的讲话后，我们一起出发了。今天的天气非常好，晴空万里，暖暖的春风吹在脸上，暖洋洋的真舒服，我们排着整齐的队伍，举着红旗，在老师的带领下，到文山去扫墓，我往后一看，队伍一眼望不到边。

路途很远，可是我们一点都感觉不到累，到了文山上，我们先向烈士宣誓，然后给烈士们献上自己亲手做的小白花。又给烈士们唱了一首歌。最后，老师又带我们去参观了博物馆，合影留念，时间过的真快，不知不觉就中午了，妈妈来接我回家，我还真有点依依不舍。

Its a long way, but we do not feel tired, went to Wenshan, we first to the martyrs martyrs oath, and with his own hands to do small white flowers. And sing a song for martyrs. Finally, the teacher took us to visit the museum, posed for pictures, the time off really fast, imperceptibly to noon, my mother to take me home, I also really a little be reluctant to part.

One story about Jack,an Irishman,who was not allowed into Heaven because he was stingy with his money.So he was sent to hell.But down there he played tricks on the Devil (Satan),so he was kicked out of Hell and made to walk the earth forever carrying a lantern.

Well,Irish children made Jacks lanterns on October 31st from a large potato or turnip,hollowed out with the sides having holes and lit by little candles inside.And Irish children would carry them as they went from house to house begging for food for the village Halloween festival that honored the Druid god Muck Olla.The Irish name for these lanterns was "Jack with the lantern" or "Jack of the lantern," abbreviated as " Jack-o-lantern" and now spelled "jack-o-lantern."

The traditional Halloween you can read about in most books was just childrens fun night.Halloween celebrations would start in October in every elementary school.

关于万圣节有这样一个故事.是说有一个叫杰克的爱尔兰人,因为他对钱特别的吝啬,就不允许他进入天堂,而被打入地狱.但是在那里他老是捉弄魔鬼撒旦,所以被踢出地狱,罚他提着灯笼永远在人世里行走.

在十月三十一日爱尔兰的孩子们用土豆和萝卜制作“杰克的灯笼”,他们把中间挖掉、表面上打洞并在里边点上蜡烛.为村里庆祝督伊德神的万圣节,孩子们提着这种灯笼挨家挨户乞讨食物.这种灯笼的爱尔兰名字是“拿灯笼的杰克”或者“杰克的灯笼”,缩写为Jack-o-lantern .

现在你在大多数书里读到的万圣节只是孩子们开心的夜晚.

The Englishman love to behave gentlemanly and the Englishwoman love to behave ladily. They also show their respect to ladies. They always say" Lady first". In their daily life. the English pay attention to their appearance. They dress neatly. They shake hands when they meet other. When they are with others, they usually say "please""thank you""sorry" and so on. The breakfast in Britain is very rich. Usually there are all kinds of egg products, oatmeal, bacon, ham, sausages, butter, jam, bread, milk, juice, coffee and so on. They are popular with the western countries. Whats more, the English like drinking tea. They have the habit of drink afternoon tea at about 3 in the afternoon. They enjoy drinking tea and treat it as a kind of seeing friends.

there are gains for all our losses, there are balms for all our pain; but when youth, the dream, departs it takes something from our hearts, and it never comes again. we are stronger, and are better, under manhood’s sterner reign; still we feel that something sweet followed youth, with flying feet, and will never come again. something beautiful is vanished, and we sigh for it in vain; we behold it everywhere, on the earth, and in the air, but it never comes again!
