On wednesday, i went shopping with my cousins. we bought some brand name t-shirts and pants. in the afternoon, my cousins gave me a fun ride on the city highway. they also taught me how to drive their fancy car, so i tried to do some turning and parking. it was not easy first. but i learnt quick.

on thursday, we returned home with many gifts from our trip. i tried to get some rest. at night, i chatted with my classmates on the phone, and i watched cctv before going to bed.

更重要的是她很有耐心和责任心。每次我遇到麻烦的时候，她总是帮助我。她愿意和我交流。我不知道如何感谢她。没有她，我的英语不会这么好的。

For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay based on the picture below.

You should start your essay with a brief account of the impact of the Internet on the way people communicate and then explain whether electronic communication can replace face-to-face contact. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

“Dear Andy-How are youYour mother and I are fine .We both miss you and hope you are doing well. We look forward to seeing you again the next time your computer crashes and you come downstairs for something to eat, Love, Mom and Dad.”

范文: The modern technology has greatly altered the mode of

communication among people. With the help of the Internet, people can easily contact each other anytime anywhere. However, the side effect is that many people have become over-dependent on the Internet and neglected face-to-face communication.

As far as Im concerned, electronic communication cannot fully replace the direct contact among people. Although it seems to bring everyone together, it actually estranges people and decreases the effectiveness of communication. A typical example is that, traditionally, people working in the same office simply walk to others and talk. Today, however, co-workers tend to send e-mails or instant messages through the Internet even when they are sitting next to each other. As words can never convey the full message, it usually takes much more time and rounds of conversation than face-to-face communication, in which people can discuss more directly with less loss of information.

To conclude, the Internet enables more effective communication in some situations, but over-dependence on it actually pulls people apart.

Thanksgiving Day

Thanksgiving is a holiday celebrated in much of North America, generally observed as an expression of gratitude, usually to God. The most common view of its origin is that it was to give thanks to God for the bounty of the autumn harvest. In the United States, the holiday is celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November. In Canada, where the harvest generally ends earlier in the year, the holiday is celebrated on the second Monday in October, which is observed as Columbus Day or protested as Indigenous Peoples Day in the United States.

Thanksgiving is traditionally celebrated with a feast shared among friends and family. In the United States, it is an important family holiday, and people often travel across the country to be with family members for the holiday. The Thanksgiving holiday is generally a "four-day" weekend in the United States, in which Americans are given the relevant Thursday and Friday off. Thanksgiving is almost entirely celebrated at home, unlike the Fourth of July or Christmas, which are associated with a variety of shared public experiences.

[高中英语作文感恩节

古人曾说过“经一蹶者长一智，今日之失，未必不为后日之得”。久经沙场的我，通过一次测试，这才领略到了吃一堑,长一智的意思。

那是四年级时，老师说：“明天数学测试,回家好好复习!”我心想：考试，这有什么?我随便考考就能上九十分!晚上，我一直在看电视，把明天测试的事全抛到脑后头了。第二天一早，我才想起要复习，我背起书包，扬长而去。到了学校，就已经开始考试了。很快老师就把卷子发到了同学们手上。开始写试卷了，教室里静悄悄的，只听见沙沙的写字声，同学们在紧张的写试卷，我反复看了几遍题目，还是不知道从哪里下手。怎么办?我急得像热窝上的蚂蚁，差点把含在嘴里的笔套捏碎。这时，我想：如果昨天复习了，今天就不是这样啦!我努力的思索着，浑身冒汗，交卷的时候，我心里忐忑不安，还是狠下心来，把试卷交了上去。我盼着老师能晚点告分，可是老师就像跟我作对似的，下午就把卷子发下来了。我闭着眼，希望我能少错点，就全是当瞎猫碰上死耗子了。我慢慢的睁开眼睛，看到了自己的成绩。我竟然考了89分! oh ,my god!!我完全不敢想象我该怎么回去。放学后，我把自己的成绩告诉了爸爸，爸爸说这就算是给我一个教训，下次应该吸取教训，考得更好。

又一次测试来了，我一回家就复习，这一次果然上了95分!我笑的合不拢嘴，

但我还记住：虚心使人进步骄傲使人落后!正所谓是吃一堑,长一智!

Generation gap refers to the misunderstanding between the old and young.

The term came into fashion after the 1980s. However, in recent years, the

phenomenon is getting more and more fierce.

How does generation gap come into being? The first reason is that the two

generations have grown up in different ages, thus they have different attitudes

toward life. Secondly, due to having little in common with each other, they are

unwilling to sit down and talk face to face. Besides, as modern life is so

stressful, both of them are so busy with their study or work that they have not

enough time to exchange their ideas.

To bridge the generation gap is not easy at all, but we can do something to

shorten it. For one thing, children should respect their parents as well as

accept their good advice. For another, parents should not only show their love

and care to the kids, but also support their good life view. As long as the old

and young can understand each other, it would be more harmonious in family and

world.

今天作文课上，还有最后的一刻钟，同学们开始懈怠了。有的搞起小动作，有的和同桌窃窃私语，有的看起了课外书，还有的干脆收拾起书包……由于完成了教学计划，老师也没有在意我们的举动。

突然，他走到讲台前，顿了一下，说：“同学们，我们来做个游戏怎么样啊?”一听做游戏，我们霎时来了精神。老师接着说：“我来做一组动作，请你们来猜一个成语，好不好?”“好!”同学们异口同声地大喊!只见老师不紧不慢地拿来一张报纸，“嗤啦”一声，报纸被拦腰截断。我们还没反应过来，老师又是“嗤啦”一声，纸条在空中划过一条弧线，慢慢落在地上。我们正在疑惑，老师又撕了一次，然后头也不回地走出教室。

我们都愣住了!三秒钟后，教室里炸开了锅：“这是啥游戏啊，谁还不会撕纸啊?”不知是谁咕哝了一句。“撕了三次，走了，到底是啥意思啊?”同桌百思不得其解。正在讨论中，老师推门进来：“猜着了吗?”“没有——”我们连连摇头。老师说：“我给家一个提示：不能只看我的动作的数量，还要看我后续的动作，我撕完报纸走了，这个动作也不能忽略。另外，撕纸的司和思念的思是谐音，大家再猜一猜。”教室安静下来，有的冥思苦想，有的抓耳挠腮，还有的在本子上勾画着什么。过来一会儿，后排的孙牧青大声喊：“老师，我知道了，是三思而后行!”老师高兴地说：“非常正确!”大家的目光一起投向了她，都为她鼓起掌来，她的脸上洋溢着开心的笑容。

游戏结束了，我回到家中，查了一下“三思而后行”这个成语。她的意思是：经过反复考虑，然后再去做事情。这节课真的很开心，我不但和老师愉快地互动，还知道了“三四而后行”这个成语的含义。以后，我在做事情时，也要学会三思而后行。

最近一段时间，网络、报纸等各种信息媒介方式疯狂报道这样一些现象，说是80后们被现在这样的一种社会模式绑架着之类的，发人深思，也令人情绪陷入低迷。也许，我觉得我们可以换个角度思考问题。

首先，篇幅上记录：只要我们活着，不论是孩提时代，成天被作业包围着，被父母的殷切期望催促着，被老师的谆谆教导束缚着;亦或是已然成年，却被岁月推挤着往前，不得不按部就班地去完成一系列世俗所要求的事情;即使是在懵懂无知的时候，饥饿也是无时无刻不在威胁着我们。看我们不管在什么时候，处于何种境地，总是有各种各样的要求绑架着我们。

拿时下热门的“蜗居”、“蚁族”等这些网络词汇来看，它们也并非是空穴来风，而是非常形象生动的描绘了当下一批批大学生毕业后的现状。他们中绝大多数毕业后留在当地，三三两两的邀约、合租在一处廉价、环境十分不好，而且地方狭小的地方，只因没有工作经验没有背景，没有高薪，梦想不知道是不是已经成为了他们的奢侈品，年轻鲜活的生命还未来得及绽放属于他们的灿烂，就被迫提前进入了凋谢的阶段。是谁偷走了他们的花期，是谁绑架了他们的蓬勃生命的希望。

看到这些，真的很令人难受。但是，这些真是一定属实吗?有谁看见了他们麻木的脸，有谁看见了他们呆滞的眼?所以说，这并不一定是真实的情况。年轻一代毕业的学生，在市场上竞争力是相对弱了一些，但是，这并不代表他们不可以努力啊。也许绝大多数中的他们正为了远方的梦想而辛苦打拼着，忙里偷闲的时候也不忘了补充精神食粮，啃啃书本什么的。住在一起的彼此互相鼓励，共同进步着，为了自己的理想而奋斗着。他们的状态让我想起了汪国真大师的一句话：我不去想是否能够获得成功，既然选择了远方，便只顾风雨兼程。他们正在身体力行地写照着这句话的现实意义。他们朝着心目中的梦想前进着，不惧艰苦的拼搏着，肯定是快乐而充实的。这合该是一股正能量。

由此可见，有时候，当你选择换个角度思考问题时，也许会获得柳暗花明般的新的希望，生命也会由此变得更加晴朗。

[给朋友的一封信高中英语作文

Nowadays, divorce rate has been rising sharply in China, because most

people think that its better to get divorced than stick to a bad marriage. But

for those couples who have children, they had better think over before getting

divorced. Parents divorce may have some negative effects on their children.

Firstly, the love of father is different from the love of mother. Children need

both of the love. Without each of the love, they may not grow up healthily.

Secondly, in order to raise the family, the single parents have to work harder,

so that they may have less time to accompany with their children. The children

may feel neglected, which may cause mental problems. Besides, if the single

parents get married again, the children may get hurt by calling another person

father or mother. If they cant get along well with each other, the situation

will become even worse. Thus, for the sake of their children, parents are not

supposed to get divorced in a rush. They should think twice.

俗话说“没有规矩，不成方圆”，这句颇有道理的老话充分证明了规则在生活中的重要性。因为有了规则，世界才能井然有序。然而，规则人人都能遵守吗?人人都能做模范执行吗?答案是不言而喻的。

有的人狂妄自大，对“规则”二字视而不见，我行我素，其结果必然会受到他人的讨厌甚至激愤。

夏天的公交车上，车窗上部张贴着“禁止吸烟”的醒目字样。一位身强力壮的年轻人嘴里叼着香烟大步跨上了车，司机好心劝他别抽烟，谁知那男青年转过头对着司机瞪眼大骂：“我抽烟犯罪了吗?我就抽，你管得着吗?”司机见他蛮不讲理，也不敢与他多争辩，全车的人义愤填膺，都用鄙薄的眼光望着青年。刺鼻的烟味在车厢中弥漫开来，有人难受地咳嗽了，可是那位青年竟置若罔闻，我行我素。车终于到站了，那青年才大摇大摆地下了车，嘴里依然叼着烟头。车厢里却留下了挥之不去的烟味……

一个人的素质是否良好，可从他是否遵守规则中看出。生活中，其实也有许多人一直恪守着规则。

有这样一个真实的故事：我一个酷爱远足的远房亲戚去企鹅岛看风景，可是碰到了半途堵车。眼看就要错过美景了，可是来往的车辆没有一辆越线逆向侵占另一侧的路，都是整齐地排队，耐心地等候着。虽然他最后错过了赏企鹅的美景，却收获了当地人对规则重视的那一道最美的发自内心的风景。

规则在我们的生活中是必不可少的，它就像一道警戒线，警告人们不要做错事;它也像一面镜子，反映出一个人素质的高低。试想，假如世上没有了规则，世界将要怎样?或许，有人会抱怨，规则像一个大铁圈，让人有束缚感，但要明白，规则不是简单管制人们的言行举止，规则的背后，实质是保护社会每一个公民的安全。“酒后不许驾车”“公共场所不许吸烟、喧哗”“禁止乱扔垃圾”……这些规定都是一种.种关怀，只有我们共同遵守，才能保障社会的美好安定。

遵守规则的人，受到人们赞扬;无视规则的人，理应受到应有的谴责和惩罚。希望人人都遵守规则，让规则伴随我们的一生!

Today is New Years Day, the outside decorated, celebrate, extremely busy!

Very happy today!

今天是大年初一，外面张灯结彩、普天同庆，热闹极了！

大街上有：放鞭炮的、敲锣打鼓的。最好玩的还要数舞龙灯，第一个叔叔舞着一颗“龙珠”，其他的叔叔舞着两条“龙”，每一条“龙”都想把“龙珠”变成自己的宝贝。

摘要：面临成功时，需要心安。试想，如果没有居里夫人在发现钋后仍安心钻研，怎会有化学元素“镭”的发现?如果没有我国领导人在国家高速发展之时，仍不满足于现状，安心办事，怎会有中国今日傲立于世的辉煌?不沉湎于已有的成绩，安心创造新的业绩，一次次的成功必将不断垂青于他。心安者，成万事。

观花者心安静待，才能看到昙花惊人的美艳;采药者心安静寻，才能找到举世难求的灵芝。生活中，处处需心安。心安者，成万事。

遭遇坎坷时，需要心安。李白被贬回乡，却豪放不减，安心享受难得的自由。于是，有了“且放白鹿青崖间，须行即骑访名山”;“安能摧眉折腰事权贵，使我不得开心颜”的潇洒与大气。苏轼流放海南，却悠然依旧，安心享受难得的悠闲，于是，有了“日啖荔枝三百颗，不辞长作岭南人”的自在。李白、苏轼仕途失意，但内心却并不为之所动，而是依然心安自在，快乐满怀，于是，成就了他们驰骋诗坛，流芳千古的伟业。心安者，成万事。

身处逆境时，需要心安。史铁生，不到二十，下身就残废，但他却并未被吓倒，而是安心于写作，终于成为现代文坛一颗耀眼的明星;海伦?凯勒，双目失明，但她却并未被压弯，而是安心练习说话，终于成为生活的强者、世人学习的楷模;史蒂芬?霍金，全身仅有两根手指能动，但他却并未被击垮，而是安心努力用两根手指写书和工作，终于，一部《时间简史》惊叹世人。他们，都是生活中的不幸者，然而，他们却用内心的安然和自身的努力，使自己成了生活中的万幸者。心安者，成万事。

面临成功时，需要心安。试想，如果没有居里夫人在发现钋后仍安心钻研，怎会有化学元素“镭”的发现?如果没有我国领导人在国家高速发展之时，仍不满足于现状，安心办事，怎会有中国今日傲立于世的辉煌?不沉湎于已有的成绩，安心创造新的业绩，一次次的成功必将不断垂青于他。心安者，成万事。

前方乌云密布，与其无方向乱窜，不如安心静待并不断积蓄能量，待准备好，调整好，以一颗安然之心，借风之势、山之力，还怕撑不出个晴空万里?

面对坎坷，安心处之;遭遇失败，安心处之;面对成功，安心处之。朋友，携一颗安然的心，快乐出发吧!梦想，就在不远处。

心安者，成万事。

导语：一个人的心胸是否宽广，并非与生俱来，而是在后来的生活中逐渐形成的。一个人的生活环境包括物质环境和精神环境。下面是小编为你准备的有关胸怀宽广的高中议论文，希望对你有帮助！

有人说，不见大海不知天有多宽。见了大海才知人是多么渺小。海，又是那么宽容，随时都可以包容一切。实际上做人的道理也在于胸怀，只有拥有了宽广的胸怀，才会体验到“退一步海阔天空”的轻松和愉悦。做人心胸宽广，就得有“得让人处且让人”的宽容，体谅别人的难处，谅解别人的错处，关注别人的长处。

《草船借箭》的一书中，那心胸狭窄地周瑜看到别人有才华，就千方百计地想陷害别人，甚至想置他人于死地！周瑜看到诸葛亮处处比自己强、比自己号，就以军队缺箭为理由，命令诸葛亮在十天之内造出十万支箭来，但诸葛亮却爽快地答应了！诸葛亮趁着大雾弥漫，向操营里“借”了十万多支箭，又一次破了周瑜地阴谋。从这件事表现了周瑜地嫉妒心特别强，这是多么愚昧无能地表现啊！

所以，人的心胸是否宽广，并非与生俱来，而是在后来的生活中逐渐形成的。一个人的生活环境包括物质环境和精神环境。物质环境应该是人成长过程中所接触到的物质生活条件，而精神环境这应该包括父母的为人处世方法、父母的教育、与周围人的融洽程度等。

胸怀宽广的境界与重要性有那些？个人认为心地善良应以下几个方面：

胸怀宽广做人，就会恬淡和从容。世界上最广阔的是人的胞怀,可以无所不容,世界上最狭隘的也是胸怀，胸怀宽广之人,博爱无边，乐观向上，视野广大，理解人；心胸狭隘之人,悲观、偏激，自负、自私。其实，人生的生活也像支曲子，有时高昂，有时低沉。人生的生活是座山坡，有上的时候，也有下的时候，所以，在顺心的日子里，要保持那份恬恬，不要得意忘形，忘乎所以；在不顺心的关口，你也要执着一份从容。

胸怀宽广做人，就学会遗忘。凡事像过筛子过滤一遍，真实的美好的，能激励自己前进的，能让自己生活多些乐趣的，就把它留下来，铭记在心里，否则的话，就统统丢到一边去，忘却一部分。如果沉溺在其中，只能成为沉重的包袱，使你举步维艰，寸步难行。 胸怀宽广做人，就会宽宏大度。雨果有一句名言：比陆地宽广的是海洋，比海洋宽广的是天空，比天空宽广的是人的胸怀。如果人的心里能容得下山，容得下海，容得下天地，人豁达开朗，心胸就广阔，天地大无边。人的面部表情与人的内心体验是一致的。学会在受挫折时笑得出来，就会提高自信心。

胸怀宽广做人，就会心胸宽广。那就得有“得让人处且让人”的宽容，要学会体谅别人的难处，谅解别人的错处，关注别人的长处。心胸开阔与否，或许和性格有关。天下之大，为个人的鸡毛蒜皮纠缠不休？要让心胸开阔，在顺心的日子里，要保持那份恬恬，不要得意忘形，忘乎所以；在不顺心的关口，你也要执着一份从容。

怎样才能达到做人胸怀宽广的境界？个人认为做人胸怀宽广应把握好以下几个方面：

做人胸怀宽广，就得掌握要有原则。一味的宽广并不是真正的宽容，反而会让遵守的人反感，得到别人的尊重，要有自己的想法，摸着自己的良心问自己，事情该怎么处理就怎么处理，问心无愧就行！平平淡淡的，顺其自然就好，不勉强自己，也不委屈自己，做想做的事，坦坦荡荡问心无愧，做个实实在在的自己。

做人胸怀宽广，就得具有宽容大度。雨果曾说过，只要有一种看透一切的胸怀，就能做到豁达大度，把一切都看作“没什么”，才能在慌乱之时，从容自如；忧愁时增添几许快乐；艰难时顽强拼搏；得意时言行如常；胜利时不醉不昏。人的面部表情与人的内心体验是一致的。心情舒畅，精神振奋是宽容大度体现。

做人胸怀宽广，就得学会沉得住气。一般来说，心胸狭窄的人都是由于有潜意识的自卑心理和缺乏自信心所导致的，那你的关键问题就是调整自己的心态，增强自己的自信心克服自卑心，只要你能做到这些，你的心胸就会开阔起来的。当你遇到挫折的时候，应该保持头脑清晰、面对现实、勇敢面对、不要逃避。冷静地分析整个事件的过程，分析一下是自己本身存在的问题，如果是一个浮躁急性之人，身上缺乏的正是这种沉稳。

做人胸怀宽广，就得听取他人忠告。忠言逆耳，很多时候我们往往刚愎自用，听不进他人的忠告。多听听他人的忠告，有时虽然“难听”，但也一定要强迫自己听！自我怀疑和对自己的能力失去信心是常见的。任何人，无论表现得多么自信，也难免对他面临的挑战缺乏自信心。

做人胸怀宽广，就得善待身边的朋友。在现实生活中，我们更应该好好珍惜身边的朋友，真诚待人，特别是那些益友，能在他们身上学到很多东西，学会留住身边的缘分。理解别人的处事方法,尊重别人的处事原则。

做人胸怀宽广，就要注重换位思考。要站在别人的角度看问题，因为每个人对于事情的看法都是不同的，所以当一个人和你的想法，看法，有不同的意见，或者和你有过什么争执，或者让你生气了的时候，那么就学着站在对方的角度去想，如果你是他，你又会如何。宽容一个人不难，难的是愿不愿意做到可以站在对方的角度看问题。

做人胸怀宽广，就要善于调节自己。参加一些社会活动的，要多走出家门的，不能总是把自己封闭在一个小空间的，在与人接触的过程中的话，是会让您的心胸变得更宽阔的，另外的话，出去旅行，看看这个祖国的大好河山的话，也是会有一定的效果的。

人生短短几十年，换个角度仔细想想，没有什么事情是不能被包容的，那么我们何不敞开胸怀去面对一切，做最好的自己，让人生更加的精彩，让自己从此享受快乐的人生！

Nowadays, smart phone has been part of our life. We can see people lowing

down their heads and playing smart phones all the time. When people are walking

on the street, the traffic regulations are no longer their first concern. It is

so dangerous for them to keep their attention on the phone. Dutch officers

figured out a new rule to let people realize the traffic lights. On the ground,

the traffic light can be seen. What a smart idea. When people are watching smart

phones, they can see the lights, too. At the same time, we need to think about

JK Rowling, who is one of the most well-known writers in the world, was born in Gwent on July 31, 1965.

She is famous for her Harry Potter fantasy series, which have been sold more than 400 million copies and adapted for popular movies.

As the first person to become a billionaire by writing books in the world, JK Rowling was ranked as the 48th most powerful celebrity by Forbes, and she was named “The Most Influential Woman in Britain” in October 2010. What’s worth mentioning is that she gives much of her wealth and time to charity, who sets agood example to other famous people.

Girls at a training course offered by the "Care for Girls" program in

Qingjian county, Shaanxi province, talked about their pursuit of dreams despite

living in unfavorable conditions.

Initiated by the National Health and Family Planning commission in 2013,

the program helps girls in underdeveloped regions to build their self-esteem and

self-confidence.

"I want to be a teacher teaching Chinese because I like Chinese and

writing," Xi said. "By teaching I can not only share knowledge with my students,

but also keep learning new things from new versions of textbooks."

She is living with her mother in a room that has no bathroom and costs 300

yuan ($48) a month to rent. Merit certificates she received from school are

displayed on the wall. Yan Lingling, Xis mother, said she is proud of her

daughter.

According to the family planning policy, couples in which both the husband

and wife have rural residential permits can have another child if their first is

a daughter. Yan said she isnt planning on adding to the family because she

wants to give her daughter the best she has.

"My husband is away most of the time, working in construction sites and

making no more than 30,000 yuan ($4,840) a year. I work as an hourly worker

sometimes. The rent of our apartment is expensive. One more child means one more

burden," Yan said.

Speaking about how she plans to achieve her dream of becoming a teacher, Xi

said: "I will not give up on my dream easily, though I know it may be difficult.

When something becomes difficult, it only makes me want to try harder."

Thereare four seasons in the year. They’re spring, summer, autumn and winter.

一年有四个季节.它们是春天，夏天，秋天和冬天。

Springis warm and sunny. In spring days, everything in our nature is green, so we cango out to release ourselves and breathe the fresh air. I think its a good wayto enjoy our beautiful nature.

春天是温暖又阳光灿烂的。在春天，自然界中的一切都是绿色的，所以我们可以释放自己，呼吸新鲜空气。我认为这是享受美丽的大自然的一种很好的方式。

Summeris hot and rainy, but summer is the best season for entertainment, because wecan go swimming in the sea and enjoy the beautiful sunshine on the beach. Itmust be very interesting.

夏季炎热多雨，但夏季是休闲娱乐的最佳季节，因为我们可以在海里游泳，在沙滩上享受美丽的阳光。那肯定很有趣。

Autumnis very cool and comfortable, and it is also the best season for harvest. Inautumn days, the farmers are busy in their fields. If we had a chance, we couldgo to the countryside and pick up some fresh fruits and vegetables.

秋天很凉爽舒适，也是收获的最好季节。秋天的时候，农民们在他们的田野里忙碌。如果我们有机会，我们可以去乡下摘一些新鲜的水果和蔬菜。

Winteris very cold and freezing. In winter, our world is covered with white snow, sowe can either make snowmen or fight with snow. And we can also enjoy thebeautiful ice lanterns in Harbin. But I prefer to go to Sanya during that time.As its on Hainan Island, the weather is always so temperate. Even in December,I can still enjoy the green palm trees, the beautiful sea, the sunny beach andthe blue sky. Maybe I can find endless pleasure there.

冬天很冷，很冰。冬天，我们整个世界都被雪覆盖了，所以我们可以堆雪人或者打雪仗。我们还可以欣赏哈尔滨的美丽的冰灯。但我更喜欢在那段时间去三亚。因为它是在海南岛，天气总是很温和。即使是在十二月，我仍然可以享受绿色的棕榈树，美丽的大海，阳光明媚的沙滩和蔚蓝的天空。也许我可以在那里找到无穷的乐趣。

Body language is used by people for sending messages to one another. It is very useful because it can help you make yourself easily understood. When you are talking with others,you are not just using words, but also using expressions and gestures. For example, waving ones hand is to say "Good-bye." A smile and handshake show welcome, and clapping hands means congratulations. Nodding the head means agreement, but shaking the head means disagreement. The gestures are accepted both by Chinese and foreigners as having the same meanings.

Different countries have different body language. For example, men in Russia, France and Arab countries kiss each other when they meet, but men in China or Australia shake hands instead of kissing. People in Puerto Rio like touching each other, but people from English speaking countries do not touth each other. If you touch an English person, you should say "Sorry. People in Arab countries like standing close to one another when they are talking, but English people must keep a distance away when they are talking. In some Asian countries, you must not touch the head of another person. In Arab countries, you eat using the fingers of your right land;the left hand is not used at all. In parts of Asia you must not sit with your feet pointing at another person.

还记得三个星期前，我刚升入高一时的兴奋激动，那时我就想，我要抛开中招时的败绩，在高中开创我人生的辉煌。可是我却发现我的成绩依然很差，我就想知道，学霸究竟是怎样炼成的。

“我在想，不管付出多大的代价，付出多少光阴，我都要超过他们”。演讲台上，刘嘉森学长正在为我们讲述他学习的经历，他的家乡只是河北的一个小村庄，当他进入衡中时，他与我一样，亦是怀着满腔的热情去学习，但当他听到了周围同学的自我介绍后，他才知道天外有天。在他班里，有同学获得过奥数奖，有同学获得过国家英语演讲比赛的奖，还有同学早已把高中数学预习完了。他的热情被熄灭了，但他并没有因此气馁，随之而来的是他不断地拼搏，不断地奋斗。从年级568名到年级第1名，可想而知，要拉开如此大的差距，要超越那么多比他更优秀的人，他付出了多少心血多少汗水。我坐在台下，目光紧紧地跟随着刘嘉森学长，我似乎明白了些什么。

正如刘嘉森学长说的“如果我没有成功，唯一的原因是我没有拼尽全力去努力奋斗”。这句话在我心上深深地烙下了印记，我的成绩这么差，究竟是因为所学的知识太难，还是我从来就没有真正的努力过，或者我那所谓的“努力”只是一种虚幻的自我安慰罢了。“真正努力是明明只剩半小时，你已经虚脱了，但你必需还要挤出一丝力气去完成那半小时的计划。”但有人却会问，为什么要这么努力呢？如今这么现实的社会，寒门出贵子的情况又怎会发生呢？

那马云呢？难道他从小就是含着金汤匙长大的吗？不，我们所有人都清楚地知道他曾是一个地地道道的农民，并且高考连续考了三次。他能够上大学也只能用侥幸两个字来评论，就是这样一个人，他成为了中国首富，他成为了我们所有人的榜样，他成为了我们所有人赞叹不已的对象。他是怎么成为这样让人引以为傲的人呢？答案只有一个——他一直在一步一个脚印的去奋斗。所以，他，马云成为了站在山巅之上的人。

因此，我们每个人的机会都是平等的，如今我们能做的就是努力拼搏，努力奋斗，让自己的人生焕发出鲜亮的光彩。

“当时我就在发愁，我应该是去上清华还是去上北大呢？”当刘嘉森学长说完这句话后，在座的每位学生无一不发出惊叹的声音，我也因此感受到了自己的微不足道，与他相比，我何止是小巫见大巫，我有与他相提并论的资格吗？但我不想如此渺小，我也不甘心，别人都能做到的事，我又凭什么做不到，我也想有一天能够有春风得意马蹄疾，一日看见长安花的喜悦，群英见我皆俯首，雄心壮志搏世间的傲然，秦王扫六合，虎视何雄哉的成就。但我知道，唯有奋斗，才是我通向这些的唯一出路。

只要在学校努力奋斗三年，我便可以改变我的整个人生，我便有权利去过自己梦寐以求的生活，我便有底气去做我原来想都不敢想的事。

在这大千世界中，我们不过是寄蜉蝣于天地，渺沧海之一粟，但是我不甘心就如此平庸，我什么都没有，有的只是我自己，我现在能做的就是单枪匹马在自己的人生中杀出一条路来。只有奋斗，才能在广阔的天空中留下自己的痕迹。我不怕因为奋斗使自己满身伤痕。唯怕自己因无所事事而成为一个虚无的人。

听君一席话，胜读十年书，刘嘉森学长短暂而又怡然理顺的演讲结束了，我也明白了那个问题的答案：每个人不是天生就是学霸的，他们之所以会有这样一个代言词，仅仅是因为他们一直在奋斗。我敬佩这样的人，我想成为这样的人，我终会成为这样的人。

唯有奋斗。

莲的“出淤泥而不染，濯清涟而不妖”一向为君子所标榜，可今日有多少人能面对诱惑而毫不动摇，面对名利钱财而无半点动心的呢?我少听说过，就算有，在如今可能也算是“异类”了吧。但我的心灵深处确实有这样一位“异类”，他就是一生致力于人类生存的科学家袁隆平，他如同国家瑰宝。由于他的辛勤研究，不知道造福了多少国人。他拥有许许多多至上的荣誉，曾经有人作过评价，说袁隆平的身价已经超过了几十亿。面对这样的夸赞，袁隆平显得十分淡然，他说并未在找这样一些东西。钱财乃身外之物，最重要的是能为别人做点什么。无欲无求的他80岁高龄仍奔走于田间，为人类的粮食事业不倦地奋斗着。

人生在世，应当努力实现自己的价值，追求自己的幸福。然而，在发展社会主义市场经济的条件下，一些人常常把物质上的富有作为衡量人生价值的标准，以富为乐，以富为贵，甚至为了发财致富而不择手段。那么，是否一个人在物质上富有，就真正实现了其人生价值?答案是否定的。

江流宛转，日照花林。在踏遍千山万水，尝遍世情风霜之际，执水仙一枝，心间筑城，不为物质繁华而忧虑，观水仙花开万盏，至为充盈精神。

我将从三个方面阐述，我方为什么认为赡养老人精神生活比物质生活重要。首先我方支持我国将重视物质赡养转向为重视精神赡养。《宪法》第14条规定赡养人不仅仅对老人有物质赡养，更要有生活上的照料和精神上的慰藉的义务，照料老年人的精神需求，照顾老人的特殊需求。其实，在瑞典、芬兰等北欧福利国家的法律中都有规定，比如他们用量化规定了子女与父母的居住距离，每年、每月、每周，甚至每日应当与父母接触的时间和次数。层层方面都表明了国家对老年人精神赡养的重视。

列夫•托尔斯泰曾说过：“通往幸福最错误的途径，莫过于享乐、乐利和奢华生活。”追求物质生活上的富足本无可厚非，但这并不能给我们真正的幸福感。

社会在进步，经济在发展，但为什么有那么富的人不幸福?为什么古人提倡的精神家园在今天却变得一文不值?这值得我们好好地反思。

曾经有人做个这样的调查：“你觉得自己幸福吗?”想想看，在经济如此发达，物质如此丰厚的今天，有人不幸福吗?答案是肯定的。有太多的人的回答却是不幸福。这些人中，有的人盛大的权势与地位，有的人钱多得数不完，但他们并不幸福，因为他们缺乏精神上的享受。

人是要有点精神的。物质上的富有，并不代表精神上也富有。一个人在精神上是否富有，关键取决于其道德素质、精神境界的高低。那些品德高尚、目光远大、致力于促进社会发展进步的人，即使在物质上不一定十分富有，但由于能够得到他人和社会的认同与尊重，他在精神上就是富有的。相比之下，那些狭隘自私、唯利是图、拔一毛利天下而不为的人，虽然可以实现物质上的富有，但由于极少想到回报他人和社会，结果很容易导致自己与周围世界的冲突，他在精神上就是贫穷的。

记得星云大师讲过这么一个故事：一位富商来找他，说：“为什么他那么有钱却不快乐?”星云大师笑了笑，说：“放下点儿什么吧!”富商回去立即为穷人捐了几十万，但他仍然不快乐。他又去找大师，大师说：“你还想拥有什么?”富商侃侃而谈，说他还要多挣点钱，能够………大师笑了笑，说：“始终是你心中的欲望太多啊，如今你所拥有的已经够多了，学会保持平和心态，无欲无求地生活吧。”这对富商来说，很难，但是相比快乐的拥有，他更愿意得到后者。
