Many people regard money as the most important thing in their life, but I

dont agree with them. There are so many things that money cant buy. The first,

money cant buy us knowledge, abilities and experience. The second, money cant

buy us a happy mood and a good health.

However, money plays a significant role in our daily life. We cant live

without it, because we have to use money to buy our daily necessities, like

food, drinks, clothes, books, and so on. And we also need money to pay for our

houses and education.

I have heard a beautiful poetry, written by a novelist, Amy Cheung. With a

little adjustment, it can vividly depict the alienation among people in reality

- "The further distance in the world is not between life and death. But when I

stand in front of you, your eyes turn to your smartphone; don’t know that I love

you."

The smartphone has been gaining a great popularity, becoming a toxic

compulsion. It has invaded our lives and occupied all our interstitial time. It

is so commonly seen that the smartphone addicts attend to their phone, ignoring

everything. Even meeting with friends, they often pull out the phone in order to

take a photo, check a message or even play with a game. Seeming connected with

the whole world, they have actually fiddled the conversation and done harm to

the relationship.

It is high time that we threw away the phone and raised our heads up. Do

cherish the ones around us and appreciate the splendid scenery ahead of us.

篇4:一个向日葵般的微笑作文

全文共 1077 字

当我读到秦文君的《当向日葵还会跳舞的时候》我不禁想起了我的向日葵。

随时间的推移,我的生活也发生了改变,原本幸福的一家,一夜间变得支离破碎,从此那个率真的女孩也逐渐消失了,变成了眼中多少带有一丝伤感的人。还在初中,我想起了我那可怜的分数,在学校,你几乎是评价学生的唯一标准,如果有你的青睐,那么大队长、三好生等称号便接踵而来;一旦被你遗弃,那么在老师、同学眼里马上成为一个坏学生,会被人看不起。在家里,你又成了评价一个孩子好坏的天平,如果有你的青睐,那么赞扬、庆祝,奖励便成了家庭欢乐的交响乐,如果被你遗弃,那么叹息、失望马上成了家庭的主旋律。

有一次,数学老师一脸严肃的拿着一叠试卷走进教室,我心想:我很努力,这次一定考的很好。谁知“啪”的一声,卷子被摔在了讲台上,那飞扬的粉笔灰就如受惊的鸟儿到处飞扬,当卷子一发下来时,我目瞪口呆,不敢相信的看着我的分数,全是红叉叉,再看看其他同学的分数,我羞愧的低下了头并把试卷塞进了抽屉里,似乎同学们都投来了鄙夷的目光,老师的神情里也只有对我的责备。回到家后,我把自己锁在了房间,想从妈妈那儿得到安慰,但电话那头是忙音,站在窗边,我渴求地寻找着我心里的慰藉——那夕阳下的向日葵依旧寻找着它的光和热,那固执的追求似乎在启示着我:一次考试代表不了什么,我应该发奋图强,人活着就为了争这口气,我应该更加努力。说完,我并拿起书开始复习,果真经过自己的努力我取得了满意的成绩。我,笑了,笑的很灿烂,像向日葵一般的微笑。刚刚经历过中考的我,明白了中考的感觉就像张爱玲说的,如同坐火车的心情。开始觉得火车很慢也很远,后来却被它的速度和力量震住了。期待中有些惶恐,我们是在铁轨旁捡着石子奔跑跳跃,在夏日的阳光下眯着眼睛的不懂人情世故的孩子。而终于,有一趟火车需要自己去等待。

初三的生活如同站在悬崖上的一根铁丝上,我心惊胆战的活着,窗外金黄色的阳光被分割成小块的快乐忧伤,这成不规则的形状落在厚厚的书上。望着窗前渐渐灰暗下来的景色,再看看自己书桌上的作业,便只好低下头来,做着那犹如山堆的作业,这时候我想起了秦文君的文章,也想起了梵高的《向日葵》,大片的向日葵,她们在大大咧咧的毫无掩饰的笑着,向日葵,那种用厚重的墨油鲜亮的向日葵;那种激情地燃烧生命,将生命演绎得淋漓尽致的向日葵;那种在漫长的黑夜里告诉我们抬头就是太阳,照亮我们性格里黑暗的向日葵给了我无懈的动力,因为,我,也是那向日葵中的一员。向日葵永远都向着阳光,它就算有悲伤也会微笑面对,当我见到向日葵时,它会毫不掩饰地向我笑。我,笑出繁华而朴素的美。

它没有荷花那样出淤泥而不染,没有桂花那样清香典雅,也没有玫瑰那样娇艳美丽,但是它充满正能量,总是面朝太阳,它就是——向日葵

向日葵那金黄色的花瓣,细细的,长长的,摸起来软软的,感觉像是牵着妈妈的手。圆圆的花盘散发出阵阵香味。

向日葵总是朝着太阳开放,它就像是太阳的铁杆粉丝。当太阳从东边的地平线上露出小脑袋,散发出第一缕阳光时,向日葵就面朝太阳,目不转睛地看着太阳,生怕太阳躲进了云层。

太阳随着时间东升西落,向日葵也跟随着太阳的足迹从东到西。

当太阳把最后一缕阳光收进自己的身体里时,向日葵像失去了电源,瞬间没了精神,低下了头。

当云朵遮住太阳时,向日葵也垂头丧气的,因为他看不见自己的偶像了。

一朵向日葵就像一台接收器,时刻接受着太阳的光辉,他永远朝着光明前进,朝着梦想出发。向日葵不但融入了我的生活,而且还融入进了我的内心,如此充满阳光的花朵,如何让我不爱它?

Not until I arrived at home after watching the movie ”Peddington Bear” with my family when a feeling of warmth and strength suddenly came to me. It’s about love, it’s about family.

The plot of the movie is really simple, even predictable and a little bit cliche. However, it’s so rare for me to meet such a snug film. Maybe there’s some resonance between the core topic ---- family and myself, or, it’s just relaxing and touching, depending on how you look at it.

The film has little input and obvious theme (dream, kindness, tolerance, trust, and love... Americans love that!), and you can even see it as an advertising video made by the U.K. Government! But, things always act like that---- the simpler the emotion is, the easier we forget. The film has it’s meaning to arouse something ignored by us. And treasure everyone, everything you have.

You can either imagine family as a gasoline station, or the safest harbor. Family won’t mind your lose, your excuse, your fault, it will give you a hand, and ask you to have a rest. Family is the most supportive one behind you, forever and always.

Good luck to everyone!

Last autumn we took a trip to Qianshan by bus.It is about thirty miles from the city.We planned to put up in a hotel there in order to watch the sun rise the next morning.

As soon as we got there,we began to climb up the mountains.How great the sight is!We felt as if we had entered amother world full of beauty,peaeefulness and loveliness.There are hundreds of mountains,one after another.there are magnificent cliffs,one above another.We climbed up vigorously and breathed the fresh air greedily.As the sun was going down,we descended to a little hotel at the foot of the hill,where we had a big dinner,and then went to bed early so as to regain the energy ior the expedition next morning.

Before daybreak,we reached the peak of the highest mountain after a hard groping and climbing in the dark.Unaware of the cold wind,we stood motionlessly,with our eyes fixing at the hr end of the east.Suddenly thin ravs of red hue spread across the sky.As the redness deepened,some mysterious clouds moved across thc sky,dividing heaven from the earth.Just at this moment,up from the brightening far east rose the sun.It was so red and yet so tender that we could gaze at it with naked eyes.and a slight applause from us.the amazed spectators,rang through the peak.Up,up it rose,adding to itself strength and glory at every step.It dazzled with vigour,driving away darkness,cold,and misery from the earth,and bring light,warmth,and happiness to men.

We were completely amazed at the wonder and the greatness of nature.We jumped and shouted like innocent children and we bathed in the first rays of the sun with the peak till it was time for our return.

篇11:温斯顿·丘吉尔:生活侧记-名人传记英文故事

全文共 4543 字

+ 加入清单

My father, Winston Churchill, began his love affair with painting in his 40s, amid disastrous circumstances. As First Lord of the Admiralty in 1915, he was deeply involved in a campaign in the Dardanelles that could have shortened the course of a bloody world war. But when the mission failed, with great loss of life, Churchill paid the price, both publicly and privately. He was removed from the admiralty and effectively sidelined.

Overwhelmed by the catastrophe — “I thought he would die of grief,” said his wife, Clementine —he retired with his family to Hoe Farm, a country retreat in Surrey. There, as Churchill later recalled, “The muse of painting came to my rescue!”

Wandering in the garden one day, he chanced upon his sister-in-law sketching with watercolors. He watched her for a few minutes, then borrowed her brush and tried his hand. The muse had cast her spell!

Churchill soon decided to experiment with oils. Delighted with this distraction from his dark broodings, Clementine rushed off to buy whatever paints she could find.

For Churchill, however, the next step seemed difficult as he contemplated with unaccustomed nervousness the blameless whiteness of a new canvas. He started with the sky and later described how “very gingerly I mixed a little blue paint on the palette, and then with infinite precaution made a mark about as big as a bean upon the affronted snow-white shield. At that moment the sound of a motor car was heard in the drive. From this chariot stepped the gifted wife of Sir John Lavery .”

“ ‘Painting!’ she declared. ‘But what are you hesitating about? Let me have the brush — the big one.’ Splash into the turpentine, wallop into the blue and the white, frantic flourish on the palette, and then several fierce strokes and slashes of blue on the absolutely cowering canvas.”

At that time, John Lavery— a Churchill neighbor and celebrated painter— was tutoring Churchill in his art. Later, Lavery said of his unusual pupil: “Had he chosen painting instead of statesmanship, I believe he would have been a great master with the brush.”

In painting, Churchill had discovered a companion with whom he was to walk for the greater part of the years that remained to him. After the war, painting would offer deep solace when, in 1921, the death of the mother was followed two months later by the loss of his and Clementine’s beloved three-year-old daughter, Marigold. Battered by grief, Winston took refuge at the home of friends in Scotland, finding comfort in his painting. He wrote to Clementine: “I went out and painted a beautiful river in the afternoon light with crimson and golden hills in the background. Alas I keep feeling the hurt of the Duckadilly (Marigold’s pet name).”

Historians have called the decade after 1929, when the Conservative government fell and Winston was out of office, his wilderness years. Politically he may have been wandering in barren places, a lonely fighter trying to awaken Britain to the menace of Hitler, but artistically that wilderness bore abundant fruit. During these years he often painted in the South of France. Of the 500-odd canvases extant, roughly 250 date from 1930 to 1939.

Painting remained a joy to Churchill to the end of his life. “Happy are the painters,” he had written in his book Painting as a Pastime, “ for they shall not be lonely. Light and color, peace and hope, will keep them company to the end of the day.” And so it was for my father.

我的父亲,温斯顿·丘吉尔,在他四十多岁时开始迷恋上绘画,当时环境异常恶劣。那是在1915年,任海军大臣的他,积极投身于在达达尼尔海峡的一场战役中,这场战役本可以缩短那段血雨腥风的世界大战。但由于遭受失败,伤亡惨重,丘吉尔于公于私都付出了代价。他被从海军部调离且实则坐起了冷板凳。

在灾难的折磨下——他的妻子克莱门廷说:“我想他会痛苦而死,”——他携家带口来到萨利郡的一处乡间静居霍·华姆。在那儿,丘吉尔后来回忆道,“是绘画中的冥思拯救了我!”

一天他在花园散步时,偶然看到他的弟媳在用水彩作画。他观察了几分钟,然后向她借了画笔并一试身手。他的专注仿佛给他施了魔法!

丘吉尔很快就决定试试去画油画。看到他从阴暗的忧郁思中解脱出来,克莱门廷非常开心,她赶忙去买所有能买到的颜料。

然而,迈出下一步似乎有些困难,因为丘吉尔看到一块新画布的洁白无暇时感到无所适从和为难。他先从天空画起,后来他描述如何“非常谨慎地在调色板上加入一点儿蓝色调,然后以万分的小心,在这块被蓄意冒犯的雪白的防护板上点上豌豆大的一笔。这时,传来一阵驾驶机动车的马达声。约翰·拉威利先生才华出众的太太从这辆车中姗然而下。

“‘在画画呀!’她高声说着。‘可你还在犹豫什么呢?给我那支笔——那支头号的。’只见松油飞溅,她在蓝白颜料间挥毫泼墨,在调色板上龙飞凤舞,接着在吓得发皱的油画布上用力东戳西捣几下蓝色。”

那时,约翰·拉威利——丘吉尔的邻居,也是一位有名的画家—正教丘吉尔学画。后来提及他的这位特殊的学生,拉威利说:“倘若他选择绘画而不是从政,我相信他会是位绘画大师的。”

在绘画中,丘吉尔找到了能陪他度过余生大部分时光的知已。战后,在1921年,母亲刚去世两个月,他和克莱门廷就失去了他们深爱着的三岁女儿玛丽戈尔德,这时作画给了他一些安慰。在痛苦的打击下,温斯顿来到苏格兰朋友们的家中以求得安慰,用绘画来解脱自己。他在给克莱门廷的信中说:“我出外画了一条夕阳下美丽的溪流,背后映衬着晚霞的群山。唉,达克迪莉(玛丽戈尔德的昵称)使我的苦痛总是挥之不去。

史学家把1929年后的十年,也就是保守党政府垮台而温斯顿下台的时间,称为他的荒凉岁月。政治上,他一直在举步维艰的处境中徘徊,是一个孤独的勇士在努力唤起受到希特勒威胁的国人,但在艺术上他在那荒凉岁月却硕果累累。这些年他经常在法国南部作画。在现存的500多张油画中,大约250张是1930至1939年间的作品。

绘画给丘吉尔带来了乐趣直到他的人生尽头。在他所著的《画中的消遣》里说:“画家其乐融融,因为他们不会孤独。光与色,和平与希望,会始终伴随他们。”我父亲就是这样一个人。

Dear Alice,

As a teenager,I met the same problem as you. But now I can get along better with my mother. Here are some ideas for you。

Your mother talks much,because she cares about you. Maybe its not a good way,but it shows your mothers love. So I think you should listen to her. If your opinions are different from your mothers,you can communicate with her,and tell her what you are thinking about。

If your mother doesnt take your advice,just keep silent and give her a smile。

I hope what I say here can help you a lot。

篇17:向日葵别样美作文600字

全文共 702 字

+ 加入清单

世界上的花有多种多样,姿态各异,五彩缤纷。有人喜欢“花中之魁”牡丹,有人喜欢“云裳仙子”百合,还有人喜欢“花中君子”兰花。而我却喜欢热情明朗、美丽鲜艳的向日葵花。

那一年我六岁,听说北陵公园有一个向日葵花园,爸爸妈妈决定带我去见识一下。当时我没见过向日葵,就问爸爸:“什么是向日葵啊?”爸爸说:“向日葵是一种向着太阳生长、开放的花,它的果实就是你喜欢吃的毛克,它还可以榨油,一会儿到北陵,你就能看见了。”

我高兴地坐在车上,坐了一个多小时也不觉得无聊,因为我在心里想象着遍地油亮亮、香喷喷的大毛克是怎样的一个画面!

到了北陵公园,随着人流来到向日葵花园,我终于见到向日葵的“庐山真面目”——绿色的花枝承托着黄色的花盘,迎着灿烂的阳光怒放,微风徐徐,万朵向日葵花随风摇动,如同金色海洋瞬间卷起花的波浪!

画面太壮观了!以至于当时小小的我惊得一句话也说不出来。几年后从课本上我知道了,那种感觉叫做震撼。

可是,毛克在哪里?爸爸看出了我的疑惑,带着我“游”进花海,避开脚下的跟杈,我们来到一棵高大的向日葵下。爸爸指着那金黄色的花盘说:“向日葵的果实长在它的花心里,到了秋天,这里就会结出密密麻麻的毛克……”

我置身在花海之中,近距离与向日葵接触,黄艳艳的花盘,绿盈盈的茎叶,迎着太阳挺直身躯仰起笑脸。很多和我一样的小孩子,跟在父母身边欣赏美景、感受大自然,蓝天,白云,花海,游人,这不是大画家梵高笔下的油画,而是触手可及的美丽。

向日葵有别于其他花卉,它没有花香,不挑土壤,不讲水肥,从破土到结果,都会以蓬勃向上的姿态紧随光明。我们也要学习向日葵,即使沮丧也要微笑面对生活,只要心里时刻充满阳光,我们必定会成为一个阳光少年!

篇18:希望世界和平作文英文

全文共 2358 字

From ancient times to the present, the war continues, what causes the war? Resources, territory, property have become the main cause of the war.

In 1937, Japan launched a war against China. The reason is very simple. Japan is an island country with poor resources, and is at the junction of the Pacific and Eurasian plates. Earthquakes, volcanoes and tsunamis make the Japanese people feel fear and uneasiness. In a word, a lot of people are at risk of sinking at any time in a overloaded ship. So Japan wants to expand its territory and point its spearhead to China.

After the end of the two world, Japan is a defeated country, forcing Japan to sign the "Peace Constitution", not allowing Japan to own its own army, but to have defensive weapons, so the Japanese army is the self defense force.

In Sino Japanese peaceful exchanges, the two countries economy has been developing by leaps and bounds. After the Japanese nuclear disaster, the Japanese economy almost collapsed, and China pulled the Japanese economy out of the mire. Peaceful development is good for every country, but in April 2012, when Shintaro Ishihara spoke in the US in Tokyo, Japan suddenly threw aside the topic of Japanese governments purchase of the Diaoyu Islands. In fact, Shintaro Ishihara bought the Diaoyu Island for his son, Ishihara Nobuhirono, to run for the Democratic Party. I hate him, because I think Shintaro Ishihara is too selfish to push the topic to the Japanese government for his son.

Ishihara also donated money from the Japanese people to the government, and Fukuda Kahiko could not force it. The government had to stand, or cant cross national front. This irresponsible attitude has made the two sides start to go to zero. If China really began to use economic means, actually, though Japan suffered serious losses, Chinas losses were also great.

Yes, Chinas national strength has risen, but under the conditions of peace, the development of China is so fast. If the Chinese and Japanese War, only 50% of Chinas chance to win. Although Japan is only a self-defense force, its military force is far greater than China.

So, I love peace, and I want to appeal to other people to love peace. We all hope for peace. So I hope that Japan will come back to the track of peace negotiations. Only in this way will Asia peace, and the friendship between countries and countries!

From small to large, I have a lot of wishes. What I want most now is that the world will be peace.

Though our Chinese children live in a peaceful area, I know that the world is not peaceful, some places are still in war, and many children are still suffering from the war. Whenever I saw the war on TV, the scene of blood splashing all over the earth was stained with red and clear river. When I saw children running around and homeless everywhere during the war, I cant see it. At this moment, I wish the world to peace! Why those invaders cant give up the greedy desire? Why cant they just for the sake of the future of the children and stop the war? The relentless war swept away their homes, looted their relatives, also swept away their future.

How I hope the world will be able to peace! By that time, everyone has extended the hand of friendship, and everyone is equal and free. No aggressor growl, nor angry rebel, nor callous bombing of the war, everywhere is full of sweet singing of children, how much better to the world! Overweeningly ambitious invaders, as long as you learn to give up, give up ambition and greed, there will be no war in the world, become full of happy world!

I hope my wish will come true.
