初一年级英语作文：Weekend(精彩20篇)

本次月考试卷只有笔试部分共十个题型包括单项选择，补全单词连词成句，阅读理解，口语运用，句型转换，书面表达等。既考查了学生的基础知识和基本技能，又考查了学生的交际运用能力，但从学生成绩来看并不能达到大部分学生成绩优秀，结合学生的实际情况，反思自己的教学行为，我想应该从以下几个方面努力：

1.针对单选题及句型转换题中出现的错误，我感觉自己对学生的英语基础知识把关不够严。在以后教学中要狠抓基础知识，多提问多听写，充分利用早读让学生在有限的早读时间内掌握所学知识。

2.阅读理解是学生英语综合能力的一种体现，是学生的弱项。加强英语阅读方法的指导以及阅读训练尤其提倡学生进行课外阅读让英语阅读成为一种习惯对学生的英语阅读能力的提高将会有很大的帮助。

3.英语是一门语言，语言是用来交流的工具，因此英语的交际性显得很重要，在以后的教学中可以进行课前五分钟自由对话，在运用任务型教学法，游戏教学法等多提供给学生一些交际英语的机会。

4.这次英语考试成绩基本可以，但有两极分化的趋向，在英语教学中面对全体学生关注每一个学生的成长尤其是后进生是预防两极分化的重要途径，还可以成立“一帮一”小组帮助后进生在尽可能短的时间内提高英语成绩。

总之，每次考试都是对自己教学工作阶段性的“评价”。要及时通过考试反思自己的教学中存在的问题，在总结与反思中不断进步，不断成长这样才能在三尺讲台上表现的更精彩些!

反思二：初一英语月考反思

第一次七年级英语月考试卷充分体现了新课改的精神，切实有效地考察了所学知识内容。下面对试卷试题进行具体分析：

一、试卷题型情况

1、注重对基础知识、基本技能的考察，题型新颖、覆盖面大，涉及到了所学的全部内容，促进学生有效学习。

2、注重从实际中选取素材，考察了学生的分析和处理问题能力。

3、试卷对学生探究能力是一个重点考察，增强了学生的探究分析能力。

二、试卷结构分析

试卷充分体现了新课标课改精神，注重了对学生基础知识和综合能力的考察，因此对学生的细心程度要求很高。

1、听力部分：试题难度不大，因此学生在该部分的得分率较高，但是学生的两极分化严重，高分很高，甚至满分，而低分则太低。

2、完形填空和阅读理解：难度适中，但是得分率一般，主要原因是学生理解文章不透彻，阅读能力差造成的。

3、词语运用：此题是各大题中得分最低的一个题，主要原因是学生对词的用法掌握不好，一些固定词组记不清。

4、书面表达：该题对于学生来说是比较容易的一题，它是对学生整体知识的一个考察，但两极分化最为严重。

三、学生分析

存在问题：

1、优等生对基础知识掌握较好，但是还有一部分学生对语言的运用能力较差，对比较碎的知识点没有能够很好地掌握。

2、中等生的基础知识掌握不够牢固，并且做题比较粗心。

四、具体改进措施

1、钻研新教材，夯实英语基础。练习中很多学生“一看就会，一做就错”，这种现象比较普遍，失误原因是对于常见用语掌握的熟练程度还不够。其根本原因就在于基础不牢，只有扎扎实实从基础做起，才能最终达到“一看就会，一做就对”。

2、加强英语课外阅读。英语知识的获得与能力的提高是在不断的听、说、读、写的训练过程中逐步形成的，而教材和课堂所能提供的训练还是比较有限的，因此，要加强理解语篇的能力训练，增强英语语感。

3、规范训练，改进学习方法。要善于分析学生，找出学生的薄弱环节，合理安排好教材知识梳理、专项训练和应试技巧指导。

在今后的教学中应注意开阔学生视野，多渠道、大容量地给学生提供具有时代感的英语信息，加强语言运用能力的培养，少讲解，多给学生实际运用语言的机会，在用中学英语。

Hello! My dear friends! First, let me introduce myself to you. My name is Wu Dongxiang and my friend usually call me Kina. Im a 20-year-old girl who comes from Guilin Guangxi China. It’s known to all,Guilin is a beautiful city in China. Have you ever been to Guilin? If the answer is no, dont warry about it. Please come on, I am very glad to be you guide .Welcome to our city!

In my college, I majored in Tourism and English. I want to be a tour guide when I graduate from my college. Because Im a lovely girl and I like to travel to different places. I have about ten courses to learn this term. What about you?

I have a lot of hobbies. In my spare time, I often go sightseeing, play badminton and go out running. Sometimes go shopping or stay at home. I also like reading and planting flowers. Do you have the same hobby with me?If you want to talk with me, please send me an E-mail.My E -mail :kinakl920@126.I m looking forward to seeing you!

At college, i missed my parents a lot. as the term was drawing to an end, i eagerly looked forward to going home. and i planned to do a thousand and one things during the vacation. above all, i wanted to help my mother with housework. i also wished to read many hooks which my teachers had recommended. however, at home, my mother would never let me do anything. she completely deprived me of sharing her work. as soon as i opened a book to read,she would sit down beside me and ask me about all kinds of things at the college. to please her,i told her one thing after another,and soon i forgot all about books. even when i was actually reading,she would, now and then,insist that i should eat an egg or drink a cup of tea. when i left home at the end of the vacation, not a thing in my plan had been carried out. but i felt very happy. i believed much more deeply than before in the old saying: home, sweet home. there’s no place like home!

Friends are important for us, everyone has their own friends, we share sorrow and happiness with our friends. We are making new friends now and then, but it is hard to find the genius friends, the trust between friends are hard to build. If the trust exists, friends can talk anything, they are willing to show who they are in front of their friends. While if the trust doesn’t exist, the friendship is not real deep, people will ask you when they are in trouble. The real friendship is built on the basis of trust. My best friend will never ask me to do thing all the time, instead, she cares about me, and comforts me when I am upset. That’s a real friend.

朋友对于我们来说很重要，每人认都有他们的朋友，我们和朋友分享喜怒哀乐。我们会时而不时地交朋友，但是交到真正的朋友很难，朋友间的信任很难建立。如果信任存在，朋友间可以讨论任何事情，他们愿意在朋友面前展示真正的自己。

然而如果信任不存在,友情就不会很深，人们只会在他们有困难的时候才叫上你。真正的友情是建立在信任的基础上的。我最好的朋友永远都不会一直叫我去做事情，相反的，她一直关心我，当我感到烦恼时，给予我安慰。这是真正的朋友。

转瞬即逝的光阴让人心里思绪万千。弹指间，眨眼间，我已是六年级的一名学生，心里有太多的感慨，对母校，对老师，对同学，对朋友……六年级，我开始有了一种特别的感觉，一种说不清，道不明的，却又参杂着些许惆怅与感伤的感觉。不得不承认，我心里真的很不舍。看着熟悉的一草一木，看着熟悉的一桌一椅，看着同学们的一颦一笑。一股感伤涌上我心头，冲击着我心里最柔软的地方。

每天最喜欢做的事，就是打开电脑，回味那些熟悉的泛滥的照片。一张又一张，泪水又决堤了，在我的脸上泛滥，肆虐我的脸，也一样的，流进了我的心。眼，已模糊不清。心，亦湿得决，湿得透。那些旧城、旧人、旧事就这样，猛然回魂，那些记忆一直驻足在我的脑海，我的心房。很久，很久，一直不散……经历一件事与回忆一件事，说实话，我更喜欢回忆一件事，那感觉是很特殊的，不能言语的，只能意会不能言传的。或者，我是因为特别喜欢一首歌《相见不如怀念》吧。或许，又是别的种种，我不懂，也不想懂。回忆，或甜或苦。回忆，我会伤感，我会惆怅，我会落泪或潮湿了眼眶。但我还是喜欢，因为回忆，会时时刻刻提醒我，珍惜眼下。珍惜眼下，才会让回忆更美。

其实，世界上没有哪一个人真正体味过一分一秒的流失。我喜欢凝视着钟表，叹息着，一分一秒就这样没了，就这样成为了历史。猛地叹息，猛地遮挽时，它又走了。时光啊时光，你从不给我任何机会。有时，我们喧闹，嬉笑。但是，这些日子与岁月，就在狂欢时的尖叫中消失，就在我们喧闹时溜走，就一点一点失踪于世俗繁华，就一点一滴蒸发在都市的灯红酒绿里。这种可有可无的喧闹，狂欢，毫无意义地来，又毫无意义地走。这种时间，轻的无痕……

时光，时光。它从不给我思考任何无关痛痒之事，渐渐，眼下变成了我最重要的。过去，需怀念；眼下，需珍惜。任何事，总有一天要面对，总有一天要过去。趁现在，趁自己还拥有，别再蹂躏这岁月，别再践踏这时光。时光是珍宝，也似女人，需要珍惜和爱护。

[初一年级作文珍惜眼下

I like the program" Animal World" . First of all, I like animals, especially small animals. Secondly, the host is able to make the program lively and interesting. Thirdly, through this program I know a lot of things that I havent known before. I gain some knowledge about animal life, such as, different lives of various kinds of animals, the relationship between people and nature, people and animal, and the importance of animal protection.

I want to say that animals are part of nature as we are. They can not be separated from the humans. We must keep nature in balance.

Please give your love to animals. Stop killing them.

我喜欢“动物世界”这个节目。首先，我喜欢动物，尤其是小动物。第二，主持人把节目办得既生动又有趣。另一方面，通过这个节目，我知道了许多以前不知道的关于动物生活方面的事情，例如不同动物的不同生活习惯，人与动物之间、人与自然之间的关系，还有保护动物的意义。

我想说的是，动物是自然的一部分，它们与人类不可分割，我们一定保持生态平衡。

请把你们的爱给它们吧，不可以杀害它们。

她是一个很平凡的人。一张白皙而以俏丽的脸上；两道细溜溜的眉毛；一双小而有神眼睛，薄薄的嘴唇，常常挂着恬静的微笑。她个子不高，站在我们中间像是我们的一员。

她是一个很幽默，可爱的人。一次她在黑板上画了一只猴子，指着画，请了一个开小差的同学问她这是什么。她一慌之下把monkey说成了lizard。陆老师瞪大眼睛，装出一脸狐疑，轻声地问：“同学们，你们看到过像这种品种的lizard吗？下面一阵哄堂大笑。老师及时纠正说：“这是monkey，以后上课要认真听。”

有一次，有位同学上课在开小差，陆老师轻轻地走过去，拍拍他的肩膀说：“革命尚未成功，同志仍需努力啊！”小朋友有错误时，陆老师从不正面批评而是用巧妙的语言给予提醒。

在她的英语课上总是充满了欢声笑语，我们也越来越喜欢英语了！

with beautiful scenery surrounded. Because of the poor geographical environment

tough. Generally, people grow rice and some other crops for a living. Most young

people work at the city, leaving their parents and children at home, which is

the status of the vast majority of rural area. It seems that only in this way

can rural people live a better life.

[初一英语作文：my busy day

I think smiling is as important as sunshine. Smiling is like sunshine because it can make people happy and have a good day. If you aren’t happy, you can smile, and then you will feel happy. Someone may say, “But I don’t feel happy.” Then I would say, “Please smile as you do when you are happy or play with your friends happily. You will really be happy again.”

You don’t like crying, right? So you must prefer smiling, because you know smiling will let people forget everything unhappy. Every day, we see teachers or students and say, “Hi/Hello! How are you?” At the same time, you are smiling, right?

Smiling can let you have more friends. With a smile, people will know you’re a kind person. They will talk with you, so you will have more and more friends.

So I say, smiling is like a flower, the sunshine, warmth. It will give you happiness.

In my mind, there are many people who is worth I admire, but there is a person of character, and make my lifelong benefit - cleaner.

Remember in the cold morning, on my way to school, vaguely see a person, the man with a broom in sweeping the floor. Walk into a look, turned out to be cleaner. Just then, I thought: such a cold day, the cleaner in sweeping the floor, isnt it cold? Saw her wearing a uniform, with masks, left hand holding a broom, her right hand to the dustpan, thorn face brings her ears are red.

Her left hand holding a dustpan, right hand holding a broom, and patience and carefully. She sweep up the stolen goods, and sweep up the piece of stolen goods, such action also dont know how to repeat again. Look, her hands how tacit understanding! If dustpan full, carefully pour into the truck, afraid to drive just sweep clean and dirty. Pour out, and then began to sweep. I see from her eyes, she is how I hope you will no longer throw stolen goods, keep the road clean. At this time, the wind is blowing, blow the roads and dirty. The cleaners helplessly say: "alas, true cant, I need to scan again." And then, call forth spirit said: "it doesnt matter, I will be able to finish cleaning!" Then Saul again, and this time, she first sweep rubbish, and dustpan sweep the garbage into the dustpan. Full use broom mouth, dont let the junk, and into the truck. I think: it can save more time, sweep the garbage out. Thinking about thinking, cleaner to sweep out the rubbish. I dont went into his YouZi ceasing, laughingly said: "thats very kind of you! I want to learn from you that silently dedication spirit!" Cleaners listened, smiling eyes.

This is the person I admire most. One day, a person in silently every day. Is the persons character is not worth me to learn?

在我的脑海里，有许多人值得我佩服，但有一个人的品格，使我终生受益――清洁工。

记得在寒冷的早晨，在上学的路上，隐隐约约看到一个人，那个人拿着扫帚在扫地。走进一看，原来是清洁工。就在这时候，我想：这么冷的天，清洁工在扫地，难道不冷吗?只见她穿着制服，带着口罩，左手拿着扫帚，右手拿着簸箕，刺脸的风把她的耳朵都吹红了。

她左手拿着簸箕，右手拿着扫帚，认真而又耐心的扫着。只见她把这片赃物扫起来，又把那片赃物扫起来，这样的动作也不知道要重复多少遍。再瞧，她的双手配合的多么默契呀!要是簸箕满了，就小心翼翼地倒进垃圾车里，生怕把刚刚扫赶净的地又弄脏了。倒完了，就又开始扫了。我从她的眼睛里看到，她是多么希望大家不再乱扔赃物，保持道路昔日的干净。这时，大风吹来，把道路又吹脏了。这位清洁工无奈的说：“唉，真没办法，我又要重新扫了。”接着，又振起精神说：“没关系，我一定能扫完的!”说完又开始扫了，这回，她先把垃圾扫在了一起，又拿簸箕把垃圾扫进簸箕里。满了就用扫帚挡住口，不让垃圾掉下来，再到进垃圾车里。我想：这样能够节约多点时间，把垃圾扫完。想着想着，清洁工就把这些垃圾扫完了。我不犹自住地走进他，笑盈盈地说：“您真好!我要向您学习那种默默奉献的精神!”清洁工听了，眼睛笑眯眯的。

这就是我最敬佩的人。一个每天起早贪黑、默默奉献的一个人。难道这个人的品格不值得我去学习吗?

Working is important.We work to support our family and to promote ourselves.Therefore in order to prove his ability, someone work with all his might.

工作很重要。我们工作是为了养家糊口，也是为了自我发展。有的人为了更好地证明自己，就拼命地工作。

But the result might be that he probably lost many precious things,such as health and his family.So working is not everything of ones life.Besides working, we should enjoy life more and pay attention to our health.

到头来却有可能失去很多东西，比如健康、家庭。因此工作绝不是生命的全部。除了工作，我们还要学会享受生活，珍视身体。

从1949年到XX年，从毛泽东主席宣布中华人民共和国成立到实行和全面贯彻科学发展观。60年了，一个60年的过渡，一个60年的改变。中国，已经从落魄穷困的社会逐渐走入国际世界的大舞台。

从大城市到小城镇，从小城镇到小乡村，处处都受到了改革开放的影响。在我们这个小县城里，也受到了影响，从以前的土匪窝变成了现在和谐安宁繁华的小县城。

改革开放60年来，对于中国是一个从落后到先进的过渡，而对于人们来说则是一个巨变。

我家是一个平凡的家庭，父亲每天靠做小工来养家，母亲则每天照顾我和妹妹。但是，我却清楚的记着改革开放我家的变化。

我家的房子。我家以前是住在又小又矮的砖房里，在下雨的时候，常常因为屋顶的瓦不结实而漏雨。在雨天，我和妹妹把盆子一个个的放在地上来接雨水。但是，盆子再多也没有雨水多。每次下完雨后，我家总是积了一尺多深的水，母亲因为长期生活在这种环境中，患了很严重的风湿病。而现在，我家住上了又大又舒适的楼房，母亲的风湿病也好了很多，我们再也不用为下雨漏水而发愁了。

我家的电视机。在以前，只要谁家买了台黑白电视机，谁家就会成为大家议论的焦点。记得有一次，村子里的一户人家娶媳妇儿，全村的人都去了。不是因为看热闹，而是去看电视机。人们都围绕着电视机，有几个见过“世面”的人在为大家解说，“这个电视机不仅可以听曲儿，还可以看戏!”许多的人都惊叹不已，同时又很羡慕那家人。爷爷当时也在场，他回家后想了很久，终于决定把存的XX元拿出来，交给母亲，说：“香，这钱你拿去，给咱家也买台电视机!”母亲听后，很犹豫，说：“爸，这可是您辛辛苦苦存了好久才有的钱，怎么能。。。。。。”“别说了!我讲去买就去买!”爷爷说完，头也不回的转身走了。母亲看着手中的钱，又看着爷爷渐渐模糊的背影，默默的流泪。第二天，母亲买来了一台黑白电视机，还是某名牌的。我绕着电视机看了看，摸了摸，想着今晚要抱着它睡觉，谁也枪不走。爷爷笑呵呵的坐在旁边，满意的点了点头。那天，我家成了全村议论的焦点。而现在，村子里每家每户都有了电视机，有彩屏的，有液晶的，有防辐射的，防紫外线的。。。。。。应有尽有，再也没有因为一台电视机而出名的事发生了。我家也换了一台大彩电，虽然爷爷已去世了，但我还记得我家买第一台电视机时，爷爷那骄傲的表情。

改革开放以来，春风吹醒了大地，我家的变化是几天几夜，也说不完的。祖国的变化更是几年也讲不完。但是，改革开放使中国走向了世界，使中国的人民走进了小康。60年的沧桑，60年的努力，我们的祖国已经雄壮起来了，我们中国人也已经庞大起来了!
