一篇介绍家庭的作文英语(汇总20篇)

我的家庭有三朵别样不同的花，如果朋友们想大开眼界的话，就请随我来见识一番吧！

第一花，茉莉花——我。还是歌中唱的好——好一朵美丽（没力）的茉莉花。没错，我就是那朵没力的茉莉花，早上一觉醒来，睁不开眼，不想动弹，只愿赖在温暖的被窝里；家人让我做点事儿，我眼前立即一片茫然，继而退避三舍；要是让我走长途路，我便愁眉苦脸，宁愿一口吐血昏倒，免得自己的身心受累······哎，我真是那朵没力的茉莉花。

第二花，玫瑰花——妈妈。人们都说玫瑰花带刺，而我的妈妈就是一朵说话带刺的玫瑰花。别看妈妈长得眉清目秀的，可她那张红艳艳的、如同玫瑰花瓣的嘴一说起话来那可是不得了，你最好别去招惹她。谁说了她不如意的话，谁敢去反驳她的话，谁对她的话表示怀疑，她就张开血红的嘴叽里呱啦一大堆，口中吐出的刺尖酸刻薄，足以致命！所以，老妈就是当之无愧的带刺的玫瑰花。

第三花，雪花——爸爸。爸爸是最与众不同的一朵花。他一生气、一动怒就会发出震耳欲聋的吼叫声，火冒三丈、暴跳如雷的，活像一头疯狮子，家里所有成员对他是敢怒不敢言。简直是冷酷至极。可有时，他也会有逗趣的一面哟。比如做猪八戒，那滑稽的模样逗得大家哈哈大笑；炒个菜弄得一脸的锅巴，还在那边沾沾自喜；还经常加入我们的战斗团伙而玩得蓬头椭面······这些事例足以让我们乐上好几天。正如雪花一样，它带来的美景令人赞叹、身心愉悦，而它所带来的寒冷却令人发颤、烦恼，有好的一面，也有坏的一面，爸爸也是这样。所以，爸爸便是那独一无二的雪花！

通过我详细的的讲解，现在，你了解我家的三花了吧？

Dear Jack,

I am writing to tell you something about the activity Clear Your Plate Campaign you referred to in your last letter.

Clear Your Plate Campaign is intended to reduce food waste and help students realize how important it is to save food. Before the campaign, many students, unaware of their wasting of food, bought much more than they could eat and even threw the leftovers without a second thought. But encouragingly, knowing the significance of saving food after the campaign, more and more students are beginning to buy a proper amount of food for their meals. Actually, all of them find this mere action not only save food but money as well. They believe this life style is also environmentally friendly.

Personally, it is of great benefit to join in the campaign and form a good habit of clearing the plate. And it is essential to start with ourselves and start from now. Don’t you think so?

I’m looking forward to having your opinions of the campaign.

Li Hua

【参考译文】

我写信是想告诉你一些关于你上次在信中提到的活动的事情。

清除你的盘子运动的目的是减少食物浪费，并帮助学生认识到它是多么重要，节省粮食。在运动之前，许多学生，不知道他们浪费的食物，买了比他们能吃的更多，甚至扔下剩菜没有思想。但令人欣慰的是，知道节约粮食的重要性的运动后，越来越多的学生开始他们的饭买适量的食物。事实上，他们都发现这种单纯的行动不仅节约粮食，而且节约金钱。他们认为这种生活方式也是环保的。

就个人而言，加入竞选活动并养成清除盘子的好习惯是大有裨益的。我们必须从现在开始，从现在开始。你不这么认为吗?

我期待着有你的意见的运动。

Table Manners

The main difference between Chinese and western eating habits is that unlike the West, where everyone has their own plate of food, in China the dishes are placed on the table and everybody shares. If you are being treated by a Chinese host, be prepared for a ton of food. Chinese are very proud of their culture of cuisine and will do their best to show their hospitality.

And sometimes the Chinese host use their chopsticks to put food in your bowl or plate. This is a sign of politeness. The appropriate thing to do would be to eat the whatever-it-is and say how yummy it is. If you feel uncomfortable with this, you can just say a polite thank you and leave the food there.

Eating No-nos

Dont stick your chopsticks upright in the rice bowl.Instead,lay them on your dish. The reason for this is that when somebody dies,the shrine to them contains a bowl of sand or rice with two sticks of incense stuck upright in it. So if you stick your chopsticks in the rice bowl, it looks like this shrine and is equivalent to wishing death upon a person at the table!

Make sure the spout of the teapot is not facing anyone. It is impolite to set the teapot down where the spout is facing towards somebody. The spout should always be directed to where nobody is sitting, usually just outward from the table.

Dont tap on your bowl with your chopsticks.Beggars tap on their bowls, so this is not polite.Also, when the food is coming too slow in a restarant, people will tap their bowls. If you are in someones home,it is like insulting the cook.

My Mother

My mother is just over fifty, a little bit older than our republic nation, so she has experienced two periods just like our country, showing both the traditional goodness and modern ideas.

Like all mothers, she is responsible and devotes most of her efforts to our family. So sometimes I feel regretful for her to give up her work, but she thinks it is the proper social role for a woman to be a housewife. She is satisfied with the family members＇ achievements. She insists on keeping her children under her wings. You see how traditional she is.

However, since she is intelligent①and has received the high education, it is easy for her to accept something new. In recent years, she is interested in the stock②. Therefore, she cares about the political and economic③ situation of the country and the world, and actively collects information of the companies whose stocks she bought. What is more, she is a fan of the Argentine④football team. So she was very sad after the defeat of this team in the 14th World Cup Tournament ⑤.

I love my mother, just because she loves me. Since we share some interests such as playing chess, we get chances to communicate⑥with each other, which makes us close friends.

【词语解释】

①intelligent[in＇telidN nt] a．聪明的；明智的

②stock[st&k] n．股票

③economic[?i:k ＇n&mik] a．经济（上）的

④Argentine [＇a:dN ntain] a．阿根廷的

⑤tournament [＇tu n m nt]n．锦标赛；比赛

⑥communicate[k ＇mju:nikeit]v．交流（感情、信息等）

【写法指要】

这是一篇介绍家庭成员的说明文。本文是典型的启、承、转、合结构的文章。“启”就是开始，即引言段，作者在该段写出篇题：“showing both traditional goodness and modern ideas”，指出“母亲”既保持了传统美德，又接受了现代意识。“承”即接续之意，也就是扩充引言段篇题方面的内容。本文第二段写“母亲”的传统美德，就是“承”的段落。“转”是用来表示与第二段相反或不同意见的内容，常用“however，but”等词语来表达。本文第三段即为“转”段，它说明篇题的第二层意思，也就是“母亲”的现代意识。所谓“合”就是结束，即指结尾段，该段往往综合前三段内容，对全文做一总结。本文作者总结说，由于母亲和自己的情趣相同，所以他们相亲相爱，如同亲密无间的朋友似的。

I am pleased to serve as your guide today.

This is the palace museum; also know as the Purple Forbidden City. It is the largest and most well reserved imperial residence in China today. Under Ming Emperor Yongle, construction began in 1406. It took 14years to build the Forbidden City. The first ruler who actually lived here was Ming Emperor Zhudi. For five centuries thereafter, it continued to be the residence of23 successive emperors until 1911 when Qing Emperor Puyi was forced to abdicate the throne .In 1987, the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization recognized the Forbidden City was a world cultural legacy.

It is believed that the Palace Museum, or Zi Jin Cheng (Purple Forbidden City), got its name from astronomy folklore, The ancient astronomers divided the constellations into groups and centered them around the Ziwei Yuan(North Star). The constellation containing the North Star was called the Constellation of Heavenly God and star itself was called the purple palace. Because the emperor was supposedly the son of the heavenly gods, his central and dominant position would be further highlighted the use of the word purple in the name of his residence. In folklore, the term ”an eastern purple cloud is drifting” became a metaphor for auspicious events after a purple cloud was seen drifting eastward immediately before the arrival of an ancient philosopher, LaoZi, to the Hanghu Pass. Here, purple is associated with auspicious developments. The word jin (forbidden) is self-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-explanatory as the imperial palace was heavily guarded and off-limits to ordinary people.

The red and yellow used on the palace walls and roofs are also symbolic. Red represents happiness, good fortune and wealth. Yellow is the color of the earth on the Loess Plateau, the original home of the Chinese people. Yellow became an imperial color during the Tang dynasty, when only members of the royal family were allowed to wear it and use it in their architecture.

The Forbidden City is rectangular in shape. It is 960 meters long from north to south and 750 meter wide from east west. It has 9,900 rooms under a total roof area 150,000 square meters .A 52-meter-wide-moat encircles a 9.9-meter—high wall which encloses the complex. Octagon —shaped turrets rest on the four corners of the wall. There are four entrances into the city: the Meridian Gate to the south, the Shenwu Gate(Gate of Military Prowess) to the north, and the Xihua Gate(Gate of military Prowess) to the north, and the Xihua Gate(Western Flowery Gate )to the west ,the Donghua (Eastern Flowery Gate) to the east.

Manpower and materials throughout the country were used to build the Forbidden City. A total of 230,000 artisans and one million laborers were employed. Marble was quarried from fangshan Country Mount Pan in Jixian County in Hebei Province. Granite was quarried in Quyang County in Hebei Province. Paving blocks were fired in kilns in Suzhou in southern China. Bricks and scarlet pigmentation used on the palatial walls came from linqing in Shandong Province .Timber was cut ,processed and hauled from the northwestern and southern regions.

The structure in front of us is the Meridian Gate. It is the main entrance to the forbidden City. It is also knows as Wufenglou(Five-Phoenix Tower). Ming emperors held lavish banquets here on the 15th day of the first month of the Chinese lunar year in hornor of their counties .They also used this place for punishing officals by flogging them with sticks.

Qing emperors used this building to announce the beginning of the new year. Qing Emperor Qianglong changed the original name of this announcement ceremony from ban li(announcement of calendar)to ban shou(announcement of new moon )to avoid coincidental association with another Emperor` s name, Hongli, which was considered a taboo at that time. Qing Dynasty emperors also used this place to hold audience and for other important ceremonies. For example,when the imperial army returned victoriously from the battlefield ,it was here that the Emperor presided over the ceremony to accept prisoners of war.

(After entering the Meridian Gate and standing in front of the Five Marble Bridges on Golden Water River)

Now we are inside the Forbidden City.Before we start our tour, I would like to briefly introduce you to the architectural patterns befour us .To complete this solemn, magnificent and palatial complex, a variety of buildings were arranged on a north-south axis, and 8-kilometer-long invisible line that has become an inseparable part of the City of Beijing. The Forbidden City covers roughly one –third of this central axis. Most of the important building in the Forbidden City weree arranged along this line. The design and arrangement of the palaces reflect the solemn dignity of the royal court and rigidly –stratified feudal system.

The Forbidden City is divided into an outer and an inner count.We are now standing on the southernmost part of the outer count. In front of us lies the Gate of supreme Harmony .The gate is guarded by a pair of bronze lions ,symbolizing imperial power and dignity. The lions were the most exquisite and biggest of its kind. The one on the east playing with a ball is a male, and ball is said to represent state unity. The other one is a female. Underneath one of its fore claws is a cub that is considered to be a symbol of perpetual imperial succession. The winding brook before us is the Golden Water River. It functions both as decoration and fire control .The five bridges spanning the river represent the five virtues preached by Confucius :benevolence, righteousness, rites, intellence and fidelity. The river takes the shape of a bow and the north-south axis is its arrow. This was meant to show that the Emperors ruled the country on behalf of God.

Spring Festival has a long history, which was originally celebrated to scare away a fierce beast “Nian”. Slightly different from that in the past, it is now given new meanings and regarded as a way forpeople to enjoy reunion with their families however far they live or work. On the New Year’s Eve, each family has its members gathered together. They tell each other their lives in the past year, exchange gifts and eat a lot of delicious meals in the warmth of the family. Children can get lucky money in red paper. People have a good time, holding opera performances, and other celebrations.

I hope you will come here and experience this wonderful festival.

Yours,

Li Hua

亲爱的迈克，

在你的上一封信中，你提到你想知道春节的一些事情。我写信是想告诉你这件事。春节有着悠久的历史，最初是为了吓走一只凶猛的野兽“念”。略有不同，在过去，现在是赋予了新的内涵和作为人与他们的家人不管他们居住或工作的团聚。除夕之夜，每个家庭成员都聚在一起。他们在过去的一年里告诉彼此的生活，交换礼物和吃了很多美味的饭菜在温暖的家庭。孩子们可以用红纸得到压岁钱。人们有一个很好的时间，举行歌剧表演，和其他庆祝活动。

我希望你能来这里体验这个美妙的节日。

你的，

李华
