上海世博会对中国的影响英语作文实用20篇

To be or nor to be, that is a question. To succeed or to fail? How to

succeed and how to achieve? These problems confuse many teenagers in

nowadays.

We all have dreams, and we all work hard to realize them. But there will

always be some problems and setbacks to stop the pace of advance. When they

appear, what should we do? To stop or to go on? Mrs. Curie told us the answer.

We all know that Mrs. Curie discovered radium, but how many people really know

how hard she worked? At that time, there were many people disapprove of Mrs.

Curie. Although she got over hundreds of difficulties, she still believed in

herself and never gave up. Finally, she succeeded to discover radium. She proved

that she was right by her continuous hard work and her strong spirit. We should

learn from Mrs. Curie. She told us the truth through her own experiences that

believe in yourself, you can do it! Never give up, face the difficulties with a

smile, someday, you will be proud of yourself.

The key to success is confidence. It makes you brave, helps you get over

the troubles, and brings motivation to you. For example, somebody always get

nervous when they have an important speech, if they are in a nervous mood, the

results are always terrible. But if they are confident to themselves, the

results turn out to be better. Therefore, be confident, believe in yourself,

keep smile in your face when comes to difficulties, and you will achieve

more.

Chinese people eat rice for every meal, but I don’t like rice because I think it is tasteless! We eat meat, fish and vegetables. My family eats noodles and congee. My favorite is noodles.

when we think of halloween, we think of "trick or treat", pumpkins, jack o lanterns, vampires and haunted houses.

but do you know the origin of halloween? why does it fall on 31 october? what kind of festival is it? why is it so creepy?

halloween dates back to a celtic festival called samhain. november 1 is the new year of the celts, who lived in europe more than a thousand years ago. this is the day which marked the end of summer and harvest.

the celts believed that on the night of october 31, ghosts of the dead would return to earth. the celts celebrated samhain by dressing up in costumes with animal heads and having bonfires.

many celts settled in britain and ireland, where the festival became popular. those who moved to america took the tradition with them.

nowadays, most people celebrate halloween but only for fun. they are not worried about ghosts.

kids in america will dress up as devils or angels and will go from house to house calling "trick or treat", playing mischievous tricks and getting sweets.

americans spend more money on halloween than christmas! in xx, more than hk$45 billion was spent on halloween. and hk$15 billion of that was spent on candy alone!!!

kids in britain also dress up at halloween. they visit houses, sing songs or tell a joke to get sweets. many go to halloween parties and play games like "ducking for apples". you must pick up an apple in water but you can only use your mouth. try it!

With the development of Internet, more and more people tend to shop on the

Internet. Online shopping has provided some benefits for us, but it also has

some disadvantages at the same time.

For one thing, online shopping has brought some convenience for consumers.

Instead of going one shop to another, people can choose and buy all kinds of

commodities they like as long as they click the mouse gently. This is not only a

better choice for the old who do not have enough energy to go outside but also a

great convenience for those who have no time to go shopping in person. In

addition, consumers have more choices and can do some comparison when they are

shopping on the Internet. They can glance over various commodities in all

shapes, sizes and colors and decided to buy or not. Furthermore, online shopping

has made a great contribution to the development of express delivery

industry.

However, for another, shopping on the Internet also has some shortcomings.

Firstly, those who shop on the Internet can’t try the goods before they buy.

Sometimes, the real goods are not the same as the goods they see on the

Internet. Secondly, some shops on the Internet are dishonest and they would not

deliver the goods after paying. And if this situation happens, the consumers

would find nowhere to complain and never pull out the money any longer.

Therefore, we should pay more attention when shopping on the Internet.

What is the definition of success? I believe different people will have

different opinions about it. If anyone asks me what is success for me, I will

tell him progress is success for me. I can have small goal or great aim in my

whole life. If the goal what I set is too large for me, I will not taste the

feeling of success. Or I always set small goals, so I will feel success all the

time, which may make me become autophilia and without ambitions. Therefore, I

think if I can be better than yesterday or last time, then I am successful.

1.群英荟萃

杨振宁本科毕业获理学学士学位后，考入研究院理科研究所物理学部读研究生。读研究生期间，杨振宁住在联大昆中北院研究生宿舍。与他同室居住的有凌宁、金启华和顾震潮，黄昆和张守廉也偶尔来住几天。这些中华民族未来的精英们聚于一起，在陋室里交谈切磋，结伴探索着科学的奥秘。

2.杨门长子

作为杨家长子，杨振宁为鼓励弟妹多念书，还订出了一些颇为吸引人的规则：一天之中，谁念书好、听母亲的话、帮助做家务、不打架、不捣乱就给谁记上一个红点，反之就要记黑点。一周下来，谁有三个红点，谁就可以得到奖励———由他骑自行车带去昆明城里看一次电影。

3.名师高徒

杨振宁读联大物理学系时，给他上一年级普通物理课的是擅长实验的物理学家赵忠尧教授，上二年级电磁学课的是著名学者吴有训教授，上力学课的是在广义相对论等方面颇有研究的著名学者周培源教授等。

但对杨振宁来说，除了物理系直接教他的这些教授们外，父亲杨武之对他的影响也是相当大的。杨振宁在学校里，遇有不懂的问题、碰上难以处理的事，总是经常跑到数学系办公室向父亲请教。

杨振宁还多次说过："在联大给我影响最深的两位教授是吴大猷先生和王竹溪先生。"1942 年，杨振宁本科毕业时，选了《用群论方法于多原子的振动》作毕业论文，并请吴大猷做论文导师。杨振宁在研究生院读书时，受王竹溪教授的教育和引导，对统计物理发生了兴趣。1944 年研究生毕业时，杨振宁请王竹溪教授作硕士论文的指导老师，在其指导下又非常成功地写出了硕士论文，《超晶格》即为其中的一部分。1983 年王竹溪教授不幸逝世，杨振宁发来唁电说："我对统计物理的兴趣即是受了竹溪师的影响。"杨振宁还回忆道："以后四十年间，吴先生和王先生引导我走的两个方向———对称原理和统计力学———一直是我的主要研究方向。"

杨振宁在研究生院期间听了马仕俊教授的课后，开始注意"场论"，并对变形物体热力学也非常感兴趣。

1957 年 12 月 10 日，35 岁的杨振宁和 31 岁的李政道因共同在美国《物理评论》上发表《对弱相互作用中宇称守恒的质疑》一文登上了斯德哥尔摩诺贝尔奖领奖台。其前，杨振宁写信给吴大猷，感谢吴先生引导他进入对称原理和群论的领地，并说后来包括宇称守恒在内的许多研究工作，都直接或间接地与吴先生 15 年前介绍给他的那个观念有关。

每年农历五月初五是端午节。它和中秋节，春节并列为中国的三大传统节日。

端午节到了，碧绿，有着清香的竹叶;用水浸泡过的糯米看上去晶莹剔透;用调料腌制过的五花肉;毛竽，豆腐，青豆，板栗，蜜枣，豆沙，红枣……它们显得美味又诱人。妈妈用灵巧的双手把粽叶左折右叠，再用绳子层层缠绕，一会儿，一个个精致小巧的粽子就包好了。不一会儿，满屋飘香，把我馋的直流口水。我连忙打开一个粽子，迫不及待的往嘴里送。

“宝贝，别光顾着吃，你明白端午节为什么要吃粽子吗?”妈妈问道。

“当然是因为纪念屈原。他是一个爱国诗人，看见秦军攻破楚国国都时，就满怀悲愤地投江自尽了。”妈妈带我穿越了时空，来到了烽火四起的楚国，看见了屈原跳江时脸上绝望的神情。老百姓把粽子丢到江里，期望能喂饱鱼虾，不让他们夺食屈原的尸体。

我喜欢过端午节，它不仅仅能让我吃到香香的粽子，还能让我了解中国的历史。

Novak Djokovic is one of the top tennis players in the world. He has won

many grand slams, which is the greatest honor for a player, but there is only

one grand slam he hadn’t achieved—the French Open. In the last three years, he

was so close to the champion, but was defeated by the final winner. In order to

fulfill career Grand Slam, he practised so hard and never felt depressed. This

year, he came to the final match again, everybody wanted him to win the match,

for they knew how important the champion was to him. At the first game, he felt

a little nervous and lost, but in the second and third game, he found his pace

and controlled the match. At last, he beat his rival and finally fulfilled his

career Grand Slam. The dream was not easy to realized but insistance helps him

wins.

The Hollywood culture is favored by the world. Every year, the movies

produced by Hollywood always win both money and fame. In recent years, the US TV

series are also popular and catch more fans. The English language shows become

the winners all the time. But non-English language shows are starting to

arise.

The most famous non-English language movies are Indian movies. Because of

the Bollywood, which came before Hollywood, Indian movies are produced well and

have its own feature. Besides, more TV series of non-English language are

popular around the world. The Swedish show Skam is the hottest, and a lot of

Chinese young fans are so crazy about it.

Watching the show is a good way to learn the language and culture. It is a

good trend for people to pay attention to various cultures. Today, as the world

gets globalized, it is important to know more about the world and broaden our

vision. Though what we learn from the non-English language shows is limited, it

is better than not to watch.

November 11 is Bachelor’s Day, it is a joke that shopping can make up the

loneliness on that day, the manufacturers sense the great business, so they give

great discount on that day, people are attracting by the discount, they buy a

lot of things on that special day. But we known that people lose their wisdom

when they buy things, most things are useless.

Today, shopping online brings great discount, the price of the product will

be cheaper online, so people like to shopping online. When the holiday comes,

the products even get cheaper, customers always wait for the chance to pay the

lower price. It is said that as so many buy things on Bachelor’s Day, the

express delivery congested, customers got their stuff very late. It is more

ridiculous that a couple divorced because the wife bought too many things

online.

Now December 12 is coming soon, the discount is being presented, it is a

great lure that customers can’t control themselves. Shopping online should be

rational, we just buy what we need, the rest even is cheaper, but without value,

we must realize is a waste.

Now, we can get cheaper stuff not only online, we should control ourselves,

we buy what we are using, we can use the money to do meaning thing.

Dear Charlie,

I’m LiHua, president of the Student Union. I’m writing to invite you to our Dragon Boat Festival celebration, which is to be held in the Lecture Hall at 14:00 next Monday.

The Duanwu or Dragon Boat Festival, generally celebrated on the fifth month of the Chinese lunar calender, falls on June 18 this year. It is one of the oldest festivals in China, with a history of more than 2,000 years. Legend holds that this festival is in memory of Qu Yuan, a patriotic poet during the Warring States Period.

In the celebration, you can enjoy a performance about that legend and watch live broadcast of dragon boat racing. In the meanwhile, varieties of Zongzi, an essential food for this unique occasion, are available, which take different shapes and various fillings. Come and join us!

Your early reply is highlyappreciated!

Yours,

Li Hua

In recent years, the volunteering spirit has spread among the Chinese

people, especially among youngsters. According to a survey, in 20__, there were

about 1,700,000 volunteers who offered service for Olympic Games. Actually, an

increasing number of people become volunteers in China every year.

Volunteering actions are of tremendous benefits to both those in need and

the society. Olympic Games are a good example. As is known to all, volunteers

played an active role in Beijing Olympic Games. Without them, it would be a

tough task to hold this un-precedent Olympic Games. Therefore, we can say that

it was those volunteers who ensured the success of these games.

As modern college students, we should get actively involved in volunteering

activities. By participating, we can learn how to work well in a team, how to

improve our interpersonal skills and organizational ability. Undoubtedly, all of

these are critical for our person growth. So, we should take this chance to

learn and to grow.

The people I respect the most is my father. He is a doctor. He always busy

with work. Since I can remember, he never spent a whole weekend to stay with me.

He goes to the hospital very early before I get up, and comes back home after I

sleep. But I doesn’t matter at all, he is hero to me. He devotes almost all the

time to his patients, many lives are saved. He always said, a man should have

dignity, integrity, honor, and most of all, be helpful to others. This affected

me deeply, so I work hard so that someday I could be the man like my father.

My father used to be a heavy somker.He smoked more than 20 cigarets each

day;therefore,he was the polluter wherever he went.My mother and I tried to

persuade him to give it up.He gave it up many times but each time only for a few

days or only for a few hours.

Once he declared that he would stop smoking right away under the pressure

of my mother,and he threw his cigarets into the dustbin.The effect of his

declaration lasted only for two days.Then I found him smoking again when he

thought that he was alone and no one saw him.On the fifth day of his

declaration,he smoked openly.

Last winter he got pneumonia.When he was well again,the doctor ordered him

to give up smoking.To our delight,this time he really got rid of the habit.It

seems that the doctors order is more effective than mothers scolding,my

suggestion and his own declaration.

Yesterday, my parents were not home. And I had to stay at home by myself for one day and one night. I was very happy at first, because there wouldnt be anyone criticizes my behavior. I can do whatever I want. But later I felt desperate. There was nobody cook for me, asked me to do things or criticized me. I felt empty and desperate as the house is only me. When the night fell, I was afraid. The computer games or the cartoons couldn’t attract my attention. I hate living alone.

昨天，我的父母不在家。我得自己一个人呆上一天一夜。我一开始很开心，因为没人会批评我的行为了。我可以做任何我想做的事。但后来我感到很郁闷。没人给我做饭，没人叫我做事情也没有人批评我。整个房子只有我一个人，我感到很空虚和郁闷。当夜幕降临的时候，我就开始很害怕了。电脑游戏或动画片都无法吸引我的注意。我讨厌一个人生活。

The Dragon Boat Festival is a lunar (阴历)holiday, occurring (存正)on the fifth

day of the fifth lunar month (农历史五月第五天). Dragon Boat Festival is my favourite

festival.During the holiday of Dragon Boat Festival,I got together with my

family to have a big meal.We ofen ate the zongzi.It tasted very nice.And we saw

the Dragon Boat Races.I felt excited because the race was bustling with noise

and excitement.At Dragon Boat Festival,we also drank realgar wine.Some people

thought drank realgar wine can protect themselves from illness.Dragon Boat

Festival was interesting and I like it very much.

The Chinese Dragon Boat Festival is a significant (有意义的)holiday celebrated

(庆祝)in China, and the one with the longest history (历史最悠久). The Dragon Boat

Festival is celebrated by boat races (龙舟赛) in the shape of dragons. Competing

teams (竞争团队) row their boats forward to a drumbeat (击古)racing to reach the

finish end first.

The boat races during the Dragon Boat Festival are traditional customs

(传统习俗)to attempts to (试图)rescue (搭救) the patriotic poet (爱国诗人)Chu Yuan. Chu Yuan

drowned (溺死) on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month in 277 B.C. Chinese

citizens now throw bamboo leaves (竹叶) filled with cooked rice into the

water.

Therefore the fish could eat the rice rather than the hero poet. This later

on turned into the custom of eating tzungtzu and rice dumplings(棕子).

The celebrations is a time for protection (防护) from evil (邪恶) and disease

(疾病) for the rest of the year. It is done so by different practices such as

hanging healthy herbs on the front door, drinking nutritious concoctions (营养品),

and displaying (展示) portraits (画像) of evils nemesis(邪恶报应), Chung Kuei. If one

manages to (成功做...) stand (直立)an egg on its end at exactly 12:00 noon, the

following year will be a lucky one.

Today, people eat bamboo-wrapped steamed glutinous(粘的) rice dumplings

called zongzi (the food originally intended to feed the fish) and race dragon

boats in memory of Qus dramatic death.

In an era of information explosion, people can easily be distracted by irrelevant information. It is particularly well-known that a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention.

在这个信息膨胀的时代，人们很容易受到不相干的信息的困扰，众所周知，过于丰富的信息反而导致注意力的缺失。Admittedly, a consideration amount of information expands our horizon and gives us convenience. Just with a simple click, we can get a plenty of information from the Internet. We are so skilled at searching information online. Nevertheless, we seem at sea of information invariably when we open webpages for which the information is too abundant and much of them turn out to be useless. How can we avoid being lost in a wealth of information?可以肯定的是，一定量的信息可以开阔我们的眼界，给予方便。只是简单地敲击按键，我们就能从网络上获得大量的信息。我们是如此的熟悉搜索网络信息。尽管如此，当我们打开网页浏览这大量的信息时候，我们好像处在信息大海之中，而这些内容很多都是无用的。我们如何才能不迷失在这海量的信息之中?First of all, ensuring what information you want and make a list of them. Then you can save useful webpages which get you out of the time-consuming information. Last but not least, we should be self-control and never be attracted by the distracting information. As long as you follow those tips, you will get what you want efficiently.首先，确定好你想要找的内容并做好清单。然后你可以保存好那些有用的网站，这样你就能摆脱不相干信息的干扰。最后同样重要的是，我们要自我控制，不被那些转移注意力的信息给吸引。只要做到这几点，你就能有效地找到你想要的信息。

ncreased stress results in increased productivity--up to a point. However,

this level differs for each of us. Its very much like the stress on a violin

string. Not enough produces a dull. harsh sound. Too much makes sharp, annoying

noir, or causes the string to snap. However, just the right degree can create

magnificent tones. Similarly, we all need to find the proper level of stress

that promotes optimal performance, and enables us to make harmonious music. Good

health is more than just the absence of illness. Rather, it is a very robust

state of physical and emotional well being that acknowledges the importance and

inseparability of mind/body relationships. In the next program. I hope you will

join me in the pursuit of learning how to exploit stress, so that it can work

for you. and make you more productive, rather than self-destructive.
