今天，我要向大家特别介绍我的家乡——滨海。当然，我的家乡因为东边是海，是出了名的黄海，所以才取名滨海。

我的家乡在江苏省靠北边的盐城市，虽然家乡还是比较贫穷落后，和电视里经常见到的大城市不能相提并论，也没有高山，没有出名的风景区，但我的家乡有我最亲近的亲人。

我的家乡是一望无际的平原，没有名山大川，没有奇珍异宝，人们都很诚实善良，听说和我们这一带是海冲积出来的有关系，因为土地是沙子淤积出来的，没有发生过地震，没有发生过洪水，人也都是本本分分的农民，勤劳简朴的美德世代相传。不过，我们家乡有的土特产还是很神奇的，如果你听说过张果老吃后就成仙的神奇的何首乌，还有传说古代皇帝封的不生蚊子的清水河。

我的家乡，人好，地好，将来一定更好，我在网上看到家乡的介绍，家乡北边紧挨着中国的欧亚大陆桥东头——边云港，南边是天然湿地风景区——MI鹿和丹顶鹤的家乡，距离国际大都市上海也不过3个小时的路程，家乡有正在开发的天然良港——滨海港，有沿海高速公路经过，正在兴建的飞机场、火车道都会给我的家乡再来无限的生机，我立志要好好学习，用我的智慧和双手建设我们美好的家园，我的家乡滨海明天一定更美好。

To Be an Honest Man

As we know, honesty is one of the Chinese traditional virtues, so I think it is necessary for everyone to be an honest man.

I have heard of the story “Wolves are coming”. The little boy lost all his sheep at last because he told lies to the villagers twice. From the story, I know that if someone is not honest, he or she will lost good friends.

Remember that honesty is invaluable. Each of us should try to be an honest man not only in our study but also in our daily life from now on.

写作，作为中考英语三大重点模块之一，满分15分，是整张试卷中最难拿满分的部分，也是很多同学头疼的地方。

中考英语作文分四档：第一档（15—13分），第二档（12—9分），第三档（8—5分），第四档（4—0分），每一档都有具体的评分细则。

乐加乐中考研究中心胡赛楠老师强调：“充分认识到写作评分标准的重要性，按照标准要求规范自己的写作并多加修改，才能做到知己知彼、百战不殆。”

首先，审题要准。要点齐全，8分以上；要点不全，直接进入三类文；

其次，一档文应“观点正确”“语言准确”。“观点正确”是文章要积极向上，不可出现反动消极言论；所谓“语言准确”是要忠诚于词汇的惯用法和辨析，要有非常好的文字功底才能达到。

最后，第一档的“句式多样，词汇丰富”与第二档的“语法结构和词汇基本满足文章需要”不同，要求更多的句式和词汇。因此，应在作文中适量使用定语从句、感叹句、倒装句、祈使句等特殊句型；此外，一二档文的差别还在于“逻辑性”，在句式、词汇都相当的基础上，逻辑性强的文章容易得高分。

那是我第一次走进花店。

扑面而来的花香使我停住脚步，仔细地端详起每一种花。这家花店不大，可品种却有很多，一时间竟不知从何看起。因为同学生日没来得及准备礼物，我便匆忙来到楼下花店为她挑选，店员姐姐正在忙着为预定了花束的客人包装，于是我对她说：“我自己看看就行，谢谢。”

五彩斑斓的花像幅画卷一般展示在我面前，可我却始终看不见心仪的花，渐渐我的目光来到了这家店一个不起眼的小角落。这种花并不少见，它叫满天星，这是一个梦幻的名字，它的花语也很浪漫。虽然我对花并不是特别了解，但在万花丛中我被它引起了注意，它不像其他的花颜色杂乱，就如同它的名字一般，像一丛丛排列整齐的星星，默默地在一旁散发着独有的微光。店员姐姐在余光中看到了我，便对我说：“满天星很好繁殖，花型也好看，但是它在花束中只是陪衬的作用，你需要挑选个主角。”话音刚落，她便剪下一小束满天星放进即将完成的花束里，也正是这点睛之笔使花束又多了一份美丽。它的颜色有许多，但不杂乱无章，花心中间的颜色最深，再向四周的花瓣过度，是淡淡的渐变色。纯白的满天星如未经世事的孩子，纯洁而又美好;彩色的`满天星如头顶绚烂的银河，密密层层的缀在花束中。它们静静的站在角落，不抢主角的光芒，但有时候，只需要微微的一点光一滴暖，就可能成为生命中永不消散的美好与感动。

我们的生活中也不缺乏像满天星一样的人。他们并不是可有可无的配角，每个人都有自己坚持和向往的东西，可能这些在其他人眼中一文不值，但对于他们来说却是整个生命。他们有自己努力的方向，也正好好的演绎着属于他们的角色，他们并不惹人注意，但是只要有所表现，也会在人们心中留下很深刻的印象。是啊，你看满天星，尽管它不是站在一束花的最中间，但它是所有花中的陪衬，它很好地完成了它的使命，多么温柔的一种花呀。

它并不平凡，也不卑微，因为它也在释放着光芒，即使是很微弱的光。在如今这个充满诱惑的复杂社会，又有多少人是在默默地无私奉献呢?天使之所以会飞，是因为她们把自己看得很轻。满天星的内心可能并没有充满阳光，可它永远都是记住美好的，忘记不好的，因为错过了落日余晖还会有满天星辰。它很伟大，也很渺小，它在努力地做着更好的自己。不哀叹命运的不公，为社会做些力所能及的事，这是我们所有人都应该做到的。

我捧着一束满天星走出花店，望着无边无际的天空，心里只留下了一句话：愿我们也把自己活成一束满天星。

1．习惯是养成的；

2．好习惯是福气；

3．坏习惯必须克服。

[写作导航]习惯不论好坏都是后天形成的，一旦形成，就很难改变；好习惯是祝福，许多成功人士都承认守时、早起、诚实和毅力等是早期形成的；坏习惯如粗鲁、懒惰、说谎、偷盗和诽谤等恶习是我们应努力避免的。

[范文]

Habits, whether good or bad, are generally acquired. When a person does a certain thing once and again, he is impelled by some unseen force to do the same thing repeatedly; thus a habit is formed. Once a habit is formed, it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to shake it off. It is therefore very important that we should take great care in the formation of habits. Some bad habits formed in childhood may remain lifetime. Older persons also form bad habits, and in some cases they are ruined by these bad habits.

There are good habits which, when formed in early life, are great blessings. Many successful people declare that they owe much of their success and prosperity to the formation of such good habits as punctuality, honesty, and perseverance in early life.

Such habits as rudeness, laziness, stealing and slandering are bad habits. If we want to be useful to society, we ought to keep away from ail these vices, and strive to acquire those habits that are proven to be good for ourselves and others.

教给大家十个字，搞定初中英语写作，帮你拿到一等文。

问：“哪十字？”

“结构+要点+逻辑+语法+亮点！”

结构：中考最流行的结构就是三段式，深受各地区中考英语写作阅卷老师的喜爱。为什么尼？因为这种结构十分清晰。“观点——要点——总结”让人一目了然。三段式的第一段：简单明了，开门见山，不超过2句话，如，我们想表达小强很强壮，第一段直接说 XQ is extremely strong. 观点明确，这一句足矣。第二段：分2-3点说为什么他强壮。1. 每天吃10顿饭，He has ten meals everyday! 详举吃的是什么。2. 每天运动2小时，He does exercise 2 hours a day! 详举做了什么运动。第三段：经过第二段的论证，可以得出结论。但请注意，不能完全照抄第一段，要有升华。也可以提出希望和建议等。如，How strong and robust XQ is! I hope to be? him one day!

要点：实际上中考英语写作就等于两个字，翻译！因为中考英语写作一般会给出几个要点，要求必须在文章中有所体现。文章写的再好，只要缺少要点就会扣分。所以要点，也就是文章的第二段内容，要做到全，围绕中心。

逻辑：这里的逻辑实际指的就是逻辑词。最常用的就是表示递进的，转折的，总结的逻辑词等。递进：除了first, second, third, finally 等还可以使用高级点的，如first of all(首先)，in addition, whats more, moreover(都是另外的意思)，in a word, all in all（表示总结的）。转折：but, yet, however等。真正有经验的阅卷老师会很注意这些逻辑连接词，因为这些词体现了这个文章的思路。

语法：其他几点都不是硬性的要求，不那样做不能说是错，只能说是不好，但是语法却是硬性的。如，单词的使用，时态等。

亮点：当我们将前八个字都做得很完美的时候也只能得到一个二等文的上。要想得到一等文，最后两个字，亮点至关重要。大家设想如果我们是阅卷老师。有两篇写人美丽的作文摆在我们面前，都是结构清晰的三段式，要点都很全，都用了一些逻辑词，都没有语法错误，但是A篇只用了beautiful,good- looking,B篇却用到了attractive，charming，catching等，我坚信正常人都会给B篇高分的。这些高级一点的词汇，词组，句型便是我们得到一等文的最有力的绝招。所以，以后写英语作文要养成一般词汇限量用的好习惯。

只要把这十个字都搞定了，那么初中英语写作就一定能搞定！

In recent years,Wechat is becoming increasingly popular.Many people express themselves,exchange ideas and deliver information by Wechat.

近年来，微信是越来越受欢迎。许多人表达自己，交流思想，传递信息，通过微信。

There are a number of reasons for Wechat to be known.To begin with,Wechat is a relative cheap way of communication,which cuts down a great deal of the cost of making a phone call.Next,Wechat is to the taste of the majority of people.Its attractive interface and various functions are loved wildly.Furthermore,convenience also accounts for its popularity.It is available everywhere and at any time.

有大量的微信是众所周知的原因。首先，微信是一个相对便宜的沟通方式，节省了大量的打电话的成本。其次，微信是大多数人的口味。它吸引人的界面和各种功能是爱的疯狂。此外，方便也占其受欢迎的程度。它是无处不在的，在任何时间。

However,problems exist meanwhile.Firstly,our identity can be revealed when we use Wechat.As a result,we can be in trouble.Moreover,it may make communicating with others face to face less.To make the matter worse,relationship could break down.Last but not the least,our attention might be drawn too much to focus on study.

然而，问题的存在，同时。首先，我们的身份可以发现，当我们使用微信。作为一个结果，我们就麻烦了。而且，它可以与他人沟通面对面少。更糟糕的是，关系破裂。最后但并非最不重要的，我们的注意力可能画得太要重点研究。

That’s all.There is no doubt that Wechat will improve as time goes by.

这一切。毫无疑问，微信将随着时间的推移提高。

第一招：审题细心。审题好比驾驶员打方向，方向对了，哪怕开得慢点，也会顺利到目的地。如果审题不清，书面表达的成绩不知道会有多惨。学生真正开始写作 前，必须花相当一部分时间做写前阅读、思考等准备，包含以下四方面：1)审体裁。根据情景提示首先要弄清写何种体裁文章。2)审结构。明确开始部分、正文 部分和结尾部分，定好段落。3)审格式。如日记、便条、书信、通知的格式等。4)审内容。弄清什么必需写，哪些略写，尤其是图画式书面表达，要学会连贯 性，读懂图的意思。5)审人称和时态。弄清书面表达要求用何种人称，根据材料确定短文的基本时态。

第二招：衔接流畅。恰当使用逻辑词语，使各要点间连贯，行文通顺。比如表并列或递进： and, both…and, neither…nor, not only…but also;表选择：or, either…or; 表转折或让步：but, although, though, however, even though, in spite of, on the contrary; 表对比：like, unlike, while; 表举例：for example, such as, that’s to say; 表强调：in fact, of course, besides; 表时间顺序：when, after, before, as soon as, soon after; 表因果关系：because, since, as, for, for this reason，as a result; 表结论：in a word, to sum up. In summary, in conclusion, on the whole;

第三招：短语地道。如果能多用短语，则可回避书面表达中的中式英语，同时也能减少错误几率。尤其在考试时，如果使用短语，会使文章增加亮点。

第四招：句式丰富。一篇可读性强的文章，通常能较好体现学生对英语语言结构、词块、句式的运用。因此各类句式的多元呈现往往可以提升书面表达的成绩。初中 阶段英语写作常用的句式如下：There be…；the more…the more…；It’s adj for sb to do something；I think/believe/suppose…(宾从)； It can’t be put into real experiment。(被动)等。尤其是复合句的适恰运用对提升文章的层次很有帮助。对大多数同学来说，仿写很重要，在教材和很多的阅读书籍中都蕴含着 丰富的好词佳句。

第五招：情感真实。同样的话题，有些文章没什么情感，冷冰冰；有些 文章很有温度，有真情实感。情感真实主要可通过如下方法实现：1)内容的呈现。比如：2012年的中考英语书面表达My dream，大部分的作文都还是停留在表面上。但这个例子：I want to be a good father because my daddy was always so busy when I was a little boy.He had no time with me and my mum…虽然文章的文采并不是很好，但很有真情实感，令读者有心动的感觉，也是好文章。2)副词的运用。在句子的某些位置，添加副词，可以使句子和文段更 有人性味，更有情感性。如：I really enjoy the beauty of the sea in the sun。加了一个really，就有味道了。

第六招：思维多元。从杭州近五年中考书 面表达命题情况看，书面表达话题虽多元，但在设题上基本为半开放形式，因此半控制部分学生需要涵盖题目所给信息并进行适当发挥，而半开放部分，则要求学生 根据话题内容、自己的生活阅历、个人思维层次结合自己的英语表述自己的个人看法。有些学生的英语水平比较好，但因为在思维上比较局限想不出比较有深度、宽 度和广度的观点，这也会在一定程度上约束书面表达的质量。

第七招：整理独到。进入八 年级以来，在平时写作、单元练习、期中期末考试中，考生已积累了一定量与教材同话题的自己写的英语小短文，建议在临考前的最后阶段把自己八年级以来写的不 同话题的文章进行修改，润色、整理、汇编成册，制作一本个性化私人定制的“书面表达秘籍”，以备中考前高效复习用，以不变应万变。

第八招：卷面美观。1)不做涂改。需要在平时的书面表达中养成简列提纲、打草稿，再誊抄到答题卡的习惯。2)及时补救。如果对答题卡上的书面表达有修改， 建议用斜线划掉相应部分。3)勤练规范。临考前一个月，以中考答题卡的行距和长度为参照，设计自己字的大小，字的间距，每行的字数，以看起来舒服为准。

All large cities around the world have many post offices located throughout the city, and even the smallest village has at least one postal station. You may go to a post office to mail a letter. However, there are mail boxes located on every second or third corner in all cities and towns.

Any letter or small package having sufficient postage may be dropped in any of these mail boxes. If a person wishes a letter to be delivered more quickly to the address, he may buy a special delivery stamp and delivery is made directly by the messenger instead of by the regular carrier.

There was a sad music in the church, a parting song, and the children in front of the Jesus prayers were praying silently... At this point, what are the children praying for? Why are they so serious? Because its a graduation ceremony, because its their last day here...

Look at these kids pious face, listening to this copy from rolia song, tears blurred, I cant help remember three years ago, our graduation......

In the scorching summer, cicada son calls became the only tune, and we in the classroom, only the hearts of the coming of the senior high school entrance examination is full of infinite tension and anxiety.

Every day, after a hurry to do what everyone needs to do, immediately turn into a stressful study. A white paper in our hands is constantly checking, instead of the past summer, our hands those cute little fan; an English listening test repeatedly play, instead of the past, we listened to pop music; one to ask, instead of the old days in the classroom frequently heard the sound of the dozen...... Everything was insignificant in the face of the coming exam.

It seemed to be a long time in the past, and suddenly, at that time, like a page that had been turned over, it had not been carefully read, and it was in a hurry. The sound of the June alarm sounded, and our atmosphere was more tense. All the years, anyhow, graduation ceremony will be open, always a day to let us present ah, write the students... But we didnt do anything at that time, the reason was very simple, and everyone thought it was not necessary.

In this way, we have a graduation exam, and we just want a good result on the exam. At the end of the last exam, we gathered together, and the teacher just said something about the exam results, and hurriedly took a photo of graduation, didnt say goodbye, didnt do many other things like other graduates, and graduated.

After the mid-term examination, I found that the so-called "victory" didnt bring much joy to me. I thought that if theres a good result, there will be a happy summer vacation. But in those days, I found that it was too boring, even though I wrote a lot of homework every day, but there was always less...

Once, I walked into a gift shop close to our school. The boss asked me if I was too dull to graduate this time. He said he led a lot of gifts, such as the gift of graduation, but there were not many people in our school. He also jokes that the people we are now are getting less and more human.

After that, I thought seriously about what the boss said, and I had to admit that he was right. At that time, we only care about the results of the exam, but we have ignored the classmates and teachers feelings so long that only those scores are the only ones we want to pursue. If we were able to take a day to open a graduation ceremony and write to each other a communication address and contact, then our summer vacation would not be so boring. Its a pity that we didnt understand it at that time...

Maybe years later, when we turn over this page, we will find a blank place, a place that will never be filled out...

We didnt make mistakes three years ago. Today, we face the college entrance examination in an unhurried way, attend the graduation ceremony actively, and draw a successful conclusion for our senior high school life.

christmas, annual christian holiday commemorating the birth of jesus christ. most members of the roman catholic church and followers of protestantism celebrate christmas on december 25, and many celebrate on the evening of december 24 as well. members of the eastern orthodox church usually delay their most important seasonal ceremonies until january 6, when they celebrate epiphany, a commemoration of the baptism of jesus. epiphany also traditionally commemorates the arrival of the three wise men of the east in bethlehem (near jerusalem, israel), where they adored the infant jesus and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. the official christmas season, popularly known as either christmastide or the twelve days of christmas, extends from the anniversary of christ’s birth on december 25 to the feast of epiphany on january 6. christmas is based on the story of jesus’ birth as described in the gospel according to matthew (see matthew 1:18-2:12) and the gospel according to luke (see luke 1:26-56). roman catholics first celebrated christmas, then known as the feast of the nativity, as early as 336 ad. the word christmas entered the english language sometime around 1050 as the old english phrase christes maesse, meaning “festival of christ.” scholars believe the frequently used shortened form of christmas—xmas—may have come into use in the 13th century. the x stands for the greek letter chi, an abbreviation of khristos (christ), and also represents the cross on which jesus was crucified.

12月25日，是基督教徒纪念耶稣诞生的日子，称为圣诞节。从12月24日于翌年1月6日为圣诞节节期。节日期间，各国基督教徒都举行隆重的纪念仪式。圣诞节本来是基督教徒的节日，由于人们格外重视，它便成为一个全民性的节日，是西方国家一年中最盛大的节日，可以和新年相提并论，类似我国过春节。西方人以红、绿、白三色为圣诞色，圣诞节来临时家家户户都要用圣诞色来装饰。红色的有圣诞花和圣诞蜡烛。绿色的是圣诞树。它是圣诞节的主要装饰品，用砍伐来的杉、柏一类呈塔形的常青树装饰而成。上面悬挂着五颜六色的彩灯、礼物和纸花，还点燃着圣诞蜡烛。红色与白色相映成趣的是圣诞老人，他是圣诞节活动中最受欢迎的人物。西方儿童在圣诞夜临睡之前，要在壁炉前或枕头旁放上一只袜子，等候圣诞老人在他们入睡后把礼物放在袜子内。在西方，扮演圣诞老人也是一种习俗。

尊敬的老师、同学们，大家好

今天，我想和大家谈谈我对期中考的一些认识及体会。

从小学，经过初中，到了今天的高中，我们经历了很多次的考试。而期中考是众多考试当中很重要的考试之一。但却有很多的同学因为不重视，而在考试后后悔不迭。殊不知，考试后的这段时间是调整自我和进步的黄金时段，我们应做的是尽快找出自己的不足并缩小与别人的差距。下面我就谈一谈怎样从考试中学习。

1从失败中学习

做过的试卷是我们提高学习成绩、增长知识的极好材料。他至少可以告诉我们两种信息;一可以证明真正知道了多少，二可以说明还有那些不知道。所以当我们拿到试卷后，坐下来，认真的研究一下，而不是斤斤计较于试卷上的分数。对于那些我们做错的题目，应分析出错的原因是什么，是答案不完整，是因为粗心，还是自己根本就没有掌握这方面的内容。然后再把错题弄懂，改过来，写出完整、正确的答案，从错误中吸取教训。这样做，你才可能有意外的收获。另外，根据自己出错的原因，制定改进措施。发现了问题以后，就要有针对性地制定相应的改进措施，切不可“总结一完，抛在一边，以后学习，依然不改。”

2从成功中学习

即对做对的题目也要分析一下，为什么它们做对了，还有没有其他更好的解法。通过这种很少用的学习方法，你会对以前所学的知识有更深入的理解。

3全面地分析试卷

通过对试卷的分析，你可以检查一下哪些类型的问题你做得比较好，哪些做得不好，比如，定义、讨论、分析等等。也要检查一下，看看这些题目是根据什么内容出的，是从讲课、教材、课外阅读还是从讨论中来的。利用这些信息可以帮助你以后在这门课的考试中取得更好的成绩。另外判断一下，你之前的学习方法及应试技巧有哪些是行之有效的，哪些是无效的。从此时开始，改变自己不好的学习方法及应试技巧。

初中英语作文分为四等。一等文：13-15分;二等文：9-12分;三等文：5-8分;四等文：0-4分。教给大家十个字，搞定初中英语写作，帮你拿到一等文。

要点+结构+逻辑+语法+亮点

要点：

实际上中考英语写作就等于两个字，翻译!因为中考英语写作一般会给出几个要点，要求必须在文章中有所体现。文章写的再好，只要缺少要点就会扣分。所以要点，也就是文章的第二段内容，要做到全，围绕中心。

结构：

中考最流行的结构就是三段式，深受各地区中考英语写作阅卷老师的喜爱。为什么尼?因为这种结构十分清晰。“观点——要点——总结”让人一目了然。三段式的第一段：简单明了，开门见山，不超过2句话，如，我们想表达小强很强壮，第一段直接说XQis extremely strong。观点明确，这一句足矣。2014年中考英语写作技巧

第二段：分2-3点说为什么他强壮。1. 每天吃10顿饭，He has ten mealseveryday!详举吃的是什么。2. 每天运动2小时，He does exercise 2 hours a day!详举做了什么运动。

第三段：经过第二段的论证，可以得出结论。但请注意，不能完全照抄第一段，要有升华。也可以提出希望和建议等。如，Howstrong and robust XQ is!I hope to be him one day!

逻辑：

这里的逻辑实际指的就是逻辑词。最常用的就是表示递进的，转折的，总结的逻辑词等。递进：除了first，second，third，finally等还可以使用高级点的，如first of all(首先)，in addition，whatsmore，moreover(都是另外的意思)，in a word，all inall(表示总结的)。转折：but，yet，however等。真正有经验的阅卷老师会很注意这些逻辑连接词，因为这些词体现了这个文章的思路。

语法：

其他几点都不是硬性的要求，不那样做不能说是错，只能说是不好，但是语法却是硬性的。如，单词的使用，时态等。

亮点：

当我们将前八个字都做得很完美的时候也只能得到一个二等文的上。要想得到一等文，最后两个字，亮点至关重要。大家设想如果我们是阅卷老师。有两篇写人美丽的作文摆在我们面前，都是结构清晰的三段式，要点都很全，都用了一些逻辑词，都没有语法错误，但是A篇只用了beautiful，good-looking，B篇却用到了attractive，charming，catching等，我坚信正常人都会给B篇高分的。这些高级一点的词汇，词组，句型便是我们得到一等文的最有力的绝招。所以，以后写英语作文要养成一般词汇限量用的好习惯。

英语作文依靠的是同学们的语感和平时的积累，但是在面临中考的紧要关头，要想在短时间内提高英语写作水平不是一件容易的事情，这就需要同学们掌握中考英语作文写作技巧。
