高二英语作文：铭记南京大屠杀【精彩20篇】

True Happiness

"Life,liberty and the pursuit of happiness." The authors of the American Declaration proclaimed happiness to be one of the essential rights that make life worth living.William James,the first American psychologist,echoed this emphasis on happiness:"If we were to ask the question:What is human lifes chief concern?One of the answers we should receive would be:It is happiness." Every philosophical and religious system has offered its pathway to happiness for the individual and the group.Happiness has been related to pleasure,refuge from pain,intellectual contemplation,union with God,friendship,children,wealth,honor,successful activity,and even state burial with statues!Today,scientists have joined the dialogue to seek answers about what contributes to happiness or,as they call it,"subjective well-being".

If happiness is activity in accordance with excellence,it is reasonable that it should be in accordance with the highest excellence.– Aristotle The concept of happiness--while difficult to define-- is obviously here to stay.But the desire for happiness can set up expectations that are often hard to fulfill.The right to pursue happiness was conceived of as an inalienable right; the entitlement that everyone be happy was never promised.As captured by Eric Hoffer,a misguided search we hope to provide a framework that will guide you in your personal pursuit of happiness. 真正的快乐

“生活、自由和追求幸福的权利.”研究报告的撰写者们宣布美国声明是一个幸福的基本权利,让生活有价值.威廉·詹姆斯,第一个美国心理学家,回荡强调幸福:"如果我们问这个问题:“什么是人类的生活的主要关心的事吗?答案之一我们应该接受应该是:“这是happiness.”哲学和宗教系统都提供了它的通往个人和幸福

As the fast development of television technology, the television programs

have been greatly improved. For one thing, there are much more kinds of programs

for audiences than before. For example, there are programs for the elderly or

children, some for females and some for males. Besides, some programs are

educational and some others are interesting that supply knowledge or

entertainment for audiences. For another, the quality of television programs are

better and better. Previously, television programs are largely identical but

with minor differences. People pay little attention on creativity but just copy

from others. The audiences complain that the television programs are so boring

even vulgar that they have little interest to sit down in front of the

television. But now, the situation is quite different. People are sticked in

their sofa to enjoy their favorite television programs. As to me, I like

watching movies and records. I can watch them on television anytime.

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。

Weibo, a microblogging, make a lot of people have a stage show ego, brought the world a "everybody can speak, everyone can be focused on" era.

Weibo, in just a few dozen words, it is impossible to make anyone on the microblogging opinion leaders, is as a news agency reporter, most will be an instant latest news with the least amount of words, with the fastest speed to tell someone. Weibo to personal network oriented real-time radio, through the way of cluster, everyone can form an own audience community. With micro blogs will be released to his personal views and opinions of the audience, with the most refined words to express the deep point of view. For example, a few days ago in wenzhou passing move car tracing cauda, "41 people and injured more than 200 people have taken to more than 200 hospitals, the death toll of 19 people identity." The latest news on weibo. "On the microblogging, 140 - word limit to civilians and Shakespeare to the same level." I also have a weibo, we that a few is also a primary school classmates together talk about learning or extracurricular activities, have unlimited fun. However, everything has advantages and deficiency.

Weibo is take the world toward a new era, but also to the future world for side wall. Weibo because some primary school students surf the Internet chat, so grades plummeted, eyesight also serious decline. They lie prone on the computer every day, because of the computer radiation caused the mind, insomnia, dry eyes wait for a symptom, bet on health to talk. You dont use health for happy, can chat weibo, but not too much.

微博——这个微博客，让很多人有了展现自我的舞台，为世界带来了一个“人人都能发声，人人都能被关注”的时代。

微博，短短几十个字，也不可能让任何人在微博客上成为意见领袖，最多就是如同一个通讯社记者那样，将一个最新的即时新闻用最少的言语，以最快的速度告诉别人。微博，以个人面向网络的即时广播，通过群聚的方式，每个人都可以形成一个自己的听众群落。用微博客的方式，将个人的见解和观点发布给自己的听众，以最精炼的词汇来表达最高深的观点。比如，前几天温州路过的一动车追尾，“41人死亡200多人伤已有200多人送往医院救治，死亡人数其中19人身份确认。”微博上发出了最新消息。 “在微博客上，140字的限制将平民和莎士比亚拉到了同一水平线上。”我也有一个微博，我们那几个同样是小学的同学会一起聊一聊学习或课外活动，有无限乐趣。但是，任何事物都有优与缺。

微博虽能带世界走向一个新的时代，但也能将未来世界给予壁端。有一些小学生因为天天上网聊微博，所以成绩一落千丈，视力也严重下降。他们天天趴在电脑旁，因电脑辐射引起了头脑发昏、失眠、干眼病等症状，赌上健康去聊微博。大家不要用健康换来开心，聊微博可以，但不要太过了。

Parents are the people who care about us the most. But for a lot children,

they think it is necessary for parents to give them everything. As they grow up,

they start to realize their responsibility and feel grateful to their parents. I

was very naughty before. One day, I hanged out to play with my friends very

late, but I havent told my parents, because I thought they would not care. But

when I went home, I found my parents and uncle were sitting together, and they

looked very upset. When my parents saw me, they were angry to ask me why I went

home so late. I felt unhappy and shouted at them. Then my uncle told me that my

parents worried about me so much, and they had searched me for the whole street.

At this moment, I felt so touched, and felt their love.

There are various kinds of jobs in the world, such as writing, nursing, teaching and engineering. But different people choose different jobs as their ideal careers. This is because everyone has his own interest.

As for me, I have made up my mind to be a teacher. I choose to do so mainly for three reasons. First, I want to teach because I like the pace of academic calendar. Two long vacations offer me an opportunity for reflection, research and writing. Secondly, I want to teach because I like the freedom to make my own mistakes, to learn my own lesson, to stimulate myself and my students. And I can have the opportunity to keep on learning. Finally, I want to teach because, being around the students who are beginning to grow and change in front of me, I will grow and change with them too.

But teaching is no easy job at all. I must study cleverly to obtain more knowledge. And, at the same time, I will make every effort to purify my soul so that I can become an architect of mans soul.

Should students make friends on line ?

Some people say yes.The internet helps make many friends.Chatting on line，students can more freely express their feelings and opinions，and even get help with their foreign language studies .

Others，however，think students should not.They say making friends on line is a waste of time，which should be spent more meaningfully on study.Besides，some students get cheated on line .

It is my opinion that students should place their study，health and safety before other things.As for friendship，we can readily find it in our classmates and other people around us .

有人说是的，互联网帮助很多朋友，网上聊天，学生可以更自由地表达他们的感情和意见，甚至得到帮助，他们的外语学习。

然而，其他人认为学生不应该，他们说在网上交朋友是浪费时间，应该花更多的时间在学习上。

In recent years， studying abroad has flourished. Thousands of schloars and students have gone to foreign countries to study. Many people are sparing no effort in applying for going abroad.

Attending schools abroad has many advantages. In the first place， students who have studied abroad can act as mediators between peoples of different cultures so as to promote international understanding. Secondly， we can learn much more advanced knowledge of science and technology from the foreign countries. Thirdly， we can enjoy the contact with new and different cultures so as to increase the awareness of our own culture. Fourthly， we can learn a foreign language more quickly.

However，studying abroad may have disadvantages such as language barrier in the first few months or financial difficulties before getting a scholarship. In spite of these，the advantages greatly outweigh the disadvantages. It is advisable to attend schools abroad.

We all know that it is not easy to find a suitable work in the present society. But at the same time, more and more companies say the phenomenon of the brain drain is very serious. I think both the employee and employer should take the responsibility. But employer should take the most duty. If the company can offer a considerable welfare, there will be less staff leave their position. In general, most employees change their jobs just because they think their payment doesn’t equal to their benefit. If the employer can meet the need of their staffs, the brain drain will not be a question. By the way, the employee also should think again and again when hunting jobs to make sure finding his dream job. Then he would not regret after a few days. If both employee and employer do their best, there will be less and less brain drain.

我们都知道在当今这个社会的要找到一份合适的工作并不容易。但是，与此同时，越来越多的公司指出人才流失这个现象的严重性。我认为这应该是雇员和雇主都该承担的责任。不过雇主应承担大部分责任。如果公司可以提供相当可观的福利，很少会有员工要离开的。一般来说，大多数员工换工作都是因为他们认为他们的付出与收获不成正比。如果雇主能够满足员工的需要，人才流失将不会是一个问题。顺便说一下，在找工作的时候员工也应该三思而后行，确保可以找到自己想要的工作。这样就不会一段时间后就后悔了。如果雇主和雇员都做到最好，人才流失会越来越少。

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。

Dim lamp, I looked at the cup of tea, boiling water, the impact of time and

time again, let me feel the fragrance of tea. That bitter taste in his mouth, a

point slightly sweet, but also by my greedy mouth to the occupation, and eyes

dim, hazy outlines of the memory, can no longer be hazy memory already.

Work as much as “cook a meal,” a playful little, the teachers serious

“inhibition” the laughter of the Miao, the pressure of the heavy, “created” in

the dreams of us - growing pains. Open the heavy book of memories, that little

thoughts, perhaps tired of back and some memories back.

“At first” arrive, I am a fragile being “enemy” aimed at the

“vulnerability” opened a fierce shot, that vulnerable, I, in the “blood” at the

expense of ground could be a “sleeping inside burning the midnight oil to see

volume, Dreaming rang Beishi ”and I once again stood up. Those days are dark,

puzzled me, and learn and sometimes I have to find a seat has not yet withered

and yellow grass, and sometimes a desk, windowsill side to see the rows of trees

standing in the distance is hard, for the only be able to issue a final touch of

Brilliant Green. What are those trees? I have no way of knowing what effect this

relationship? As long as they are trees, would be sufficient. When I looked at

them a daze, the heart will be a myriad of thoughts, when my eyes back to the

tree when the mood suddenly see the light, the pressure disappeared and instead

engaged in learning among busy.

As we all know, a better result of study can be brought by a better study environment. As a result, it is necessary for us to build the green campus. The green campus can not only provide a good environment for our study, but also be a part of build the harmonious society.

The green campus is not only the environmental being green, but also the sprite being green, which means we should do other things like helping each other or caring each other. Therefore, we should both beautify the campus environment and create a campus culture.

As middleschool students, we enjoy the campus time while we have responsibility to build our green campus. In spiritual term, we should respect teachers, classmates and other people work for the school. In environmental term, we should have good habits to keep campus in a clean surrounding.

我们都知道,一个更好的研究结果可以带来一个更好的学习环境。因此,我们有必要建立绿色校园。绿色校园不仅能提供一个良好的环境对我们的学习,而且是构建和谐社会的一部分。

绿色校园不仅是绿色的环境,还被绿色的精灵,这意味着我们应该做其他的事情互相帮助和互相关心。因此,我们应该美化校园环境和校园文化。

作为中学学生,我们享受校园时我们有责任来建设我们的绿色校园。在精神上的术语,我们应该尊重老师,同学和其他人在学校工作。在环境来看,我们应该有好的习惯来保持校园在一个干净的周围。

Today the quality of our natural environment has become an important issue. The world population is rising so quickly that the world has become too crowded. We are using up our natural resources and at the same time polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals. If we continue to do this, life on earth cannot survive. Concerned people have made some progress in environmental protection. Governments of many countries have established laws to protect the air, forests and sea resources and to stop environmental pollution.

Still more measures should be taken to solve environmental problems. People should be further educated to recognize the importance of the problems, to use modern methods of birth control, to conserve our natural resources and recycle our products. We are sure that we can have a better and cleaner place in the future.

今天,我们的自然环境质量已经成为一个重要的问题。世界人口增长如此之快,世界已变得过于拥挤。我们正在利用我们的自然资源,同时与危险化学品污染我们的环境。如果我们继续这样做,地球上的生命将无法生存。关注人在环境保护方面取得了一些进展。许多国家的政府已建立法律来保护空气,森林和海洋资源并停止环境污染。

更应该采取措施解决环境问题。人们应该进一步受过教育的认识到问题的重要性,使用现代避孕方法,来保护我们的天然资源和循环利用我们的产品。我们确信我们能在未来有更好的和更清洁的地方。

Its about one and a half month away from the Chinese New Year, It is a

festival celebrated by the Chinese people at the beginning of the lunar calendar

year.

As of the Chinese traditional customs, our parents and grandparents will

sweep every corner of the house and clean the windows until they gleam, and

washing clothes, buying foods and goods for the new years future use and

presents.

Children will be the most benefited group during this feast period. One

month before that, they are expecting the new clothes, delicious foods. The

firecrackers and the years allowance for their increased ages.

In recent years, with the rising of the standard of life, Chinese tend to

make various holiday plans to spend a different and meaningful new year. Such as

traveling abroad, or be absorbed in their hobbies, and even work.

Why today we try to spend our Chinese new year in such a different way? I

think thats because this is a era of free life and personality high-ranking.

Though there are still something traditional, our young generation is attempting

to make something new and suitable for ourselves. And we would like to take

something really worth to be cherished in our memorable treasures. Thats

amazing and wonderful!

Ill always keep in mind that the Chinese new year is a great feast

inherited from our ancestors, but if necessary, I would like to enjoy it by some

ways personal.

It seems like a silly question, anyone in sane would give a hand to the elderly who fell. But in China, this question is becoming tricky. Many news report that there are some old people not just fell, they do it on purpose. Usually, they walk on a crowdy street, and pretend to faint or just lay down on the ground, intend to accuse the one who comes to help as a perpetrator and blackmail him/her for the treatment fee. Many people have fell for that and had to pay as there is no witness to prove their innocence. As for these negative news, people is afraid to help those old people in need, that makes some of them who are in real trouble could not get help in time. I once asked one of my friends: “Why the old people turn bad? If you see one in the street, would you help?” He said: “It is not the old people turn bad, it is the bad people turn old. I will video him/her to make a statement first, then decide if I would help.”

这似乎是个愚蠢的问题,任何清醒的人遇到跌倒的老人都会伸出援助之手。但在中国，这个问题变得棘手。很多新闻报道说有些老人不只是跌倒而已，他们是故意这么做的。通常他们会走到人潮涌动的街头，假装晕倒或者是直接躺在地上，想要指控那些来帮助他的人为肇事者，敲诈他们要治疗费。很多人都上当了，由于没有目击者证明他们的清白，他们被迫支付了费用。正因为这些负面新闻，人们害怕去帮助那些需要帮助的老人，也因此造成了那些真正有困难的老人没有得到及时的帮助。我曾经问我一个朋友：“为什么现在的老人变坏了?如果你在街上看到这样的老人你会帮助吗?”他说：“不是老人变坏了，是坏人变老了。我会先录像让他做一个声明，再决定是否帮助他。”

It was already late when we set out for the next town, fifteen miles away on the other side of the hills. It got dark soon; we drove fast along the narrow winding road that led to the hills. Wecouldntidentify any sign of the town marked on the map. Suddenly the car stopped. We had run out of petrol. Therefore, although we had little food with us, we decided to spend the night in the car.

在我们动身前往下一个镇的时候已经很晚了，那个镇在山的另一边离我们十五英里远。天黑得很快;我们沿着狭窄曲折的道路往山上的方向把车开得飞快。我们在地图上找不到去那个镇的任何标志。汽车突然停了下来。我们的汽油用完了。所以，虽然我们只有一点点食物，我们还是决定在车里过夜。

Our meal finished very soon. I went to sleep at once. But my companion Bill who was a poor sleeper went for a walk up the hills. From the top of the hill he saw the lights of the town we were looking for. We unloaded all our luggage and pushed the car to the top of the hill at once. Then we went back to the luggage, loaded the car again and set off down the hill. We reached the town less than a quarter, and found a hotel quite easily.

我们的晚餐很快就吃完了。我马上去睡觉。但我的同伴比尔睡眠质量不太好所以他就到山上去散步。从山顶上他看到我们正在寻找的镇的灯光。我们马上卸下我们所有的行李，把车推到山顶。然后我们回去拿行李，把它装到车上之后就下山了。不到一刻钟我们就到达镇了，并且很快就找到一个酒店。

How an exhausting day!

多么疲惫的一天啊!

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

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.

The main function of public libraries is to provide books for people to

read.In a library,there are books on different subjects,such as Chinese

history,fine art,science,English literature,and so on.There are also works fo

fiction.

The public libraries are crowded with people on weekdays as well as Sundays

because many people,especially students who want to consult reference books for

their school work,know that they could at least learn something there.

Besides reading in the library,we can also borrow books with library

cards.But books on loan had to be returned within a couple of weeks.As far as I

know the number of people who borrow books from public libraries is increasing

year after year.

I go to the City Hall library twice a month to read.
