The CCTV-8 plays it on every Saturday night.

Born in a big city, I never ever have a chance to the wild animals. But with this amazing TV program, I can see the various living beings from different places. It’s not only broaden our horizon, but also give us a lot of useful knowledge about animals and plants.

As far as I concern, it is a funny as well as valuable TV program. The pictures are not only very beautiful in the show, but also very hard to see. This show open a brand-new door to the world that we do not know. I really enjoy watching it.

现如今,看电视已经成为了人们日常生活中必不可少的一部分。下班后,人们会打开电视收看他们喜爱的节目。这是一种很好的放松方式。每一天,都有很多不同类型的节目在播放。有些是烹饪节目,有些是肥皂剧,而我最喜欢的电视节目则是《动物世界》。中央八台在每周六都会播放。

在大城市出生的我,我从来就没有机会见过野生动物。但有了这个很棒的节目,我也可以看到来自不同地区的动物了。这不仅仅开阔了我的眼界,也教会我们很多关于动物和植物的知识。

就我看来,《动物世界》是个有趣有价值的节目。拍摄画面不仅漂亮,也难得一见。这个节目对我们打开了未知世界的大门。我真的很喜欢。

My hometown has changed a lot in the last few years. In the past, there used to be old small houses in my hometown. The river in front of the village was very dirty, and smelt terrible. The children had to go to school on foot or by bike. But now there are many new tall buildings instead of the small houses. It looks clean everywhere in my hometown. The river is clear enough for children to swim in. Most children go to school by bus, and some parents take their children to school in a car.

My hometown is getting better than it used to be.

篇18:介绍清明节英语作文

The qingming (Pure Brightness) Festival is one of the 24 seasonal division points in China, falling on April 4-6 each year. After the festival, the temperature will rise up and rainfall increases. It is the high time for spring plowing and sowing. But the qingming Festival is not only a seasonal point to guide farm work, it is more a festival of commemoration.

The qingming Festival sees a combination of sadness and happiness.

This is the most important day of sacrifice. Both the Han and minority ethnic groups at this time offer sacrifices to their ancestors and sweep the tombs of the diseased. Also, they will not cook on this day and only cold food is served.

The Hanshi (Cold Food) Festival was usually one day before the qingming Festival. As our ancestors often extended the day to the qingming, they were later combined.

On each qingming Festival, all cemeteries are crowded with people who came to sweep tombs and offer sacrifices. Traffic on the way to the cemeteries becomes extremely jammed. The customs have been greatly simplified today. After slightly sweeping the tombs, people offer food, flowers and favorites of the dead, then burn incense and paper money and bow before the memorial tablet.

In contrast to the sadness of the tomb sweepers, people also enjoy hope of Spring on this day. The qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines brightly, the trees and grass become green and nature is again lively. Since ancient times, people have followed the custom of Spring outings. At this time tourists are everywhere.

People love to fly kites during the qingming Festival. Kite flying is actually not limited to the qingming Festival. Its uniqueness lies in that people fly kites not during the day, but also at night. A string of little lanterns tied onto the kite or the thread look like shining stars, and therefore, are called "gods lanterns."

The qingming Festival is also a time to plant trees, for the survival rate of saplings is high and trees grow fast later. In the past, the qingming Festival was called "Arbor Day". But since 1979, "Arbor Day" was settled as March 12 according to the Gregorian calendar.

Compared to developed countries, unfortunately, although we have made extraordinary progress since 1998, our packaging industry is still underdeveloped, messy and unstable, and the situation of employees in the field is awkward. But I have full confidence in its bright future if only our economy can be kept at the growth pace still. I guess you may be interested in why I choose this job. I would like to tell you that this job is one of my lifelong goals.

If I can work here,I will work hard. As to my character, I cannot describe it well, but I know I am optimistic and confident. Sometimes I prefer to stay alone, reading and listening to the music, but I am not lonely, for I like to chat with my classmates about almost everything. My favorite pastime is to play volleyball, to play cards or to surf online. From life at university, I learn how to balance study and entertainment. By the way, I was an actor in our amazing drama club. I have a few glorious memories on stage.
