Which place we look forward to university, the number of students of senior three. University life, every high school students dream of want to experience. At least I was at that time. But, to be honest, the university for me at that time is a kind of imagination of good, but how, I want to now I didnt have a certain understanding to him.

In college, we wont have the teacher make the teachings and anticorrosive tireless explains. Wont have too many exercises and tests every day; Dont every day in order to score, ranking and anxious, upset... In the experience of college life this month, there is such a thing let me more impressive: in the first class of the university, there are two girl for a few minutes late, according to the habit of playing before the report into the classroom. But then the teacher said: "in the university, if you be late for class or something you want to leave early, you dont have to report, just quietly in and out from the back door, it is good to do not affect you..." After this, I also met in high school even dare not even think about other things. Can at any time in and out of the dormitory and the school, for example, because of the need to accomplish something to skip class, etc.

So, I concluded that university, is a completely on the process of consciously. If high school we or a chick, so we can say of university has been growing up, away from the shelter of parents, away from the teachers supervision, the rest of the only one to do the master of himself.

So, now we are going to manage themselves, their planning their beautiful university life, and ensure that the future can smile about their college life.

At the university of the second characteristic is to have more time and space, the university will have a class from 5 points to the dormitory in the morning until 10 PM back rest; Also wont because like to see a dream of red mansions but afraid to be the teacher found and hide things, and more importantly, there are all kinds of activities in the university for you to participate in and experience, and these are considered in high school is a waste of time. In fact, we can learn much knowledge from these things - and without the knowledge of the textbook, learned a lot of experience or lessons, learn from the university of rich and colorful...

So, I think, is more important than knowledge ability, and ability to training needs a process, the university is such a good process.

大学，多少高三学子向往的地方。大学生活，每一个高中生都梦寐以求的的想去体验一番。至少当时的我是这样。但是，说句实话，大学对那时的我来说只是一种想象中的美好，但究竟如何，我想现在的我才对他有一定的了解。

在大学，不会再有老师苦口婆心的教诲和防腐不知疲倦的讲解;不会有每天做不完的习题和试卷;也不会天天为了分数、名次而焦急、苦恼……在体验大学生活的这一个月中，有这样一件事让我印象比较深刻：在大学的第一堂课上，有两个女生迟到了几分钟，按照以前的习惯打报告进教室。但后来老师说：“在大学中，如果你上课迟到或者有事想要早退的话，你不用打报告，只需悄悄地从后门出入，不要影响大家就好……”在这以后，我也遇到过其他在高中甚至想都不敢想的事情。比如可以随时出入宿舍和校门，因需要完成某事要逃课等。

所以，我总结出：大学，是一个完全靠自觉的过程。如果高中的我们还是一只雏鸟，那么大学的我们可以说已经长大，远离了父母的庇护，远离了老师的督促，剩下的只有自己做自己的主人。

所以，现在的我们要自己管好自己，自己规划自己美好的大学生活，并自己保证今后能够笑着谈起自己的大学生活。

大学的第二个特点就是有更多的时间和空间，大学中绝不会有从早上5点出宿舍上课直到晚上10点才回去休息的情况;也不会因为喜欢看《红楼梦》但怕被老师发现而东躲西藏的事情，更重要的是，在大学里有各种各样的活动等着你去参加和体验，而这些在高中都被视为纯属浪费时间的事情。其实，从这些事情中我们也能学到许多知识——课本里并没有的知识，学到许多经验或是教训，学到大学的丰富多彩……

所以，我认为，比知识更重要的是能力，而能力地培养需要一个过程，大学则是这样一个很好的过程。

Time passes qiuckly,and the summer hoilday is coming.During the hoilday,i will have a rest to reileve my stress and do some exercises to strength my body.

Besides i will spend more time in companying my parents and doing the housework as much as possible beacuse i have paid too much attention on study that i ignored them when i was in school.

However, i will do some part-time jobs as well for it can broaden my harizon and enrich my knowledge,and therefore i can learn more and have a promising future.

Last week we had a discussion about whether we still need Confucian thought in modern society. About 60% of the students in my class think it necessary to study Confucian thought. For one thing, more and more people in different countries are bursting to study it, showing that it is still treasured in the world. For another, Confucian thought is believed to have made great contributions to the peace of human beings.

But every coin has two sides. About 40% of the students in my class insist Confucian thought is outdated. In a way it limits the development of the world.

Different people have different opinions. I think Confucian thought still has some positive effects on our society.

最佳答案

After entering college, we found, to our surprise, that differences between high school life and college life are great. In high school, we always depended on our parents and teachers to solve all kinds of difficult problems. At college, however, we have to rely exclusively on ourselves. Whats more, we have to learn how to get along with our classmates and roommates.

Four years at college is an important yet very short period of time in our life. So it is always expected that we adapt to this life as quickly as possible. But it is a pity that not everyone can do so immediately. Here are some suggestions.

First, get familiar with the main buildings on the campus. Spend one or two hours by yourself or with your classmates to go around the campus so that you can know the location of such important places as the library, the dining room, the post office, the clinic and classrooms. Next, try to be independent. Learn to do such things as making sound decisions on how to spend your time, how to spend your money etc, and washing clothes on your own. Furthermore, form good study habits. Talk with your classmates and learn from their good habits. Finally, try to take part in all kinds of activities to get out of your solitude and get on well with your classmates.

话说当年织女被王母娘娘押回天宫去，只能在七夕那天才能与牛郎相会。织女不想再受相思之苦了，再三哭求母后，终于得到准许，可以在凡间和牛郎生活。

织女背着大包小包来到凡间时，牛郎早已带着一双儿女在门口等候。突然，嫦娥蹦了出来，她对织女说：“你一定熬夜上网抢车票了吧！现在是春运时节，玉皇火车站都挤满了人呢！”织女点点头。

嫦娥说：“王母娘娘派我来给你们做向导，给你们安排了一个城市里的房屋，你们不用去挤那间乡间小屋了。跟我走吧！”

出了火车站，一条漂亮的柏油马路呈现在眼前。牛郎披上神牛皮，想飞过马路，忽然一个奇怪的东西从他脚下驶过，差点把牛郎身上的神牛皮吹走了。牛郎问嫦娥：“那是什么怪物，在乡下我都没见过，竟比我飞得还快！”

嫦娥笑着答道：“那是汽车！现在人们出行都用上汽车了，我也有一辆宝马牌汽车呢！”

过了马路，嫦娥带着牛郎织女继续走着。突然，嫦娥停下了脚步，眼前是一幢高楼。她对牛郎织女说：“你们的房间就在这幢楼里，跟我进去吧！”

织女径直朝门走去。嫦娥本想拦住她，可惜晚了一步。眼看织女就要撞上了，谁知门竟自动开了。嫦娥解释道：“这是自动门，人来了，门会自动打开！”织女和牛郎听了赞不绝口，那一双儿女更是来来回回走了好几遍。

进了大楼，嫦娥按下电梯，把牛郎织女一家拉了进去。织女不解地问：“我们为什么要到这个‘铁盒子’里来？”“这是电梯，它能把我们送到指定的楼层。”

出电梯后，嫦娥把他们带到王母娘娘安排的房屋。进门后，眼前的景象更是让他们惊讶：房间内金碧辉煌，地上铺着华丽的地毯，墙壁上贴着彩色的壁纸，天花板上挂着亮闪闪的水晶灯，桌上摆放着漂亮的水晶杯，窗旁束着雍容华贵的窗帘……

织女不禁感叹：“现在时代变了，科技发达了啊！不努力都跟不上形势了！”

导语：如果说人生是一出戏，那么，军训的生活便是这出戏中最精彩的一幕。下面是小编为大家整理的优秀英语日记，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

Last afternoon,our group stopped beside the threatre andbegan to exercise.A moment later,I could barely concentrate and my body wasshaking fiercely.We were asked to stand straightly and properly.I tried hard tohold on my pace,but then my brain started to go blank.Ninty percent of my sightwas covered by some sorts of shadows as if they’were starve devils,eating up mymind.With the help of my teachers,those annoying shadows graudually fadedaway.Then it just left me endless guilty and shame.I just wanna go home.

At the moment,a well-known saying just hit in mythoughts—Keep calm,and carry on.

Everyone has his or her experience that is unforgettable.

Mine happened when I was five, when my parents took me to the city zoo.

It was a hot summer so most animals were laying down to stay cool.

As we walked around, I saw a panther crouching by a hill in its enclosure.

All of a sudden, the panther leaped over the wall and jumped on the back of an old lady who was eating a hamburger.

The old lady let out a high pitched scream and fell down from her seat, sprawling on the cement pavement and passed out.

The panther did not attack the old lady, but picked the hamburger dropped by the lady.

After swallowing the hamburger, the panther started walking around the cafeteria with many visitors looking at it.

One kid saw the animal outside, and called excitedly, “Mommy! Look! I want to pat the Panther!” The kid ran to the animal.

By the time the panther was laying on the ground.

The little boy went to the panther and sat on its back.

The panther stood, with the boy on its back, started running towards the gate of the zoo and disappeared into the city in the dusk twilight.

I took a few pictures of the boy riding the panther, and this, was an experience I will never forget.

We went to the living room very slowly. After 5 minutes, we all sat in the sofa. It was a lucky, fortunate day. I said that let’s held a concert. My parents agreed with me. I took out some candles and lighted up. We were singing, laughing and talking. We had a really good time. But while I was singing, the light suddenly turned on. Oh, my God.

When I go to high school, our school has the rule to ask students to live

in the dormitory. Most students live with their parents before, so we all feel

excited and afraid of the group life. Luckily, I have three nice roommates. Soon

we become close friends. Living with others, we learn to do the house work, such

as everyone needs take turn to clean the floor, when we have something good to

eat, we will share with each other. The group life makes us have less private

space, but we enjoy the moment when we have the little talk before sleep, the

secrets that we dont want our parents know can talk to these girls. Whats

more, I become much independent. I learn to take care of myself and have really

grown up.

As we all know,the environment around us is getting worse and worse.In some places we cant see fish swimming in the river or trees on the hills.Some people even have no clean water to drink.We should live a low-carbon life in order to protect the environnment . we can go to school on foot or by bike instead of taking a car.We had better use shopping basketbets instead of plastic bags when we go shopping.We should use both sides of the paper when we write.Dot use paper cups.At our school dinning room,use our own bowls and chopsticks instead of disposable ones.We can reuse the water and save the electricity.In a word,if everyone pays more attention to our environment,there will be less pollution and our life will be better.

我们都知道，我们周围的环境越来越差。在一些地方，我们不能看到鱼在河里游泳或树木在山上。有些人甚至没有干净的水喝。我们应该过一种低碳生活为了保护环境。我们可以去学校步行或骑自行车代替开车。我们最好使用购物篮代替塑料袋当我们去购物。我们应该使用纸的两面，当我们写。不要使用纸杯。在学校食堂，用我们自己的碗，而不是一次性的筷子。我们可以利用水和节约用电。总之，如果每个人都关注环境，将会有更少的污染，我们的生活会更好。

"There is only one earth",I hope everyone will protect our environment well.

“只有一个地球”，我希望每个人都能保护好我们的环境。

依NLP理论：每个人做任何事背后都有一善意的动机！也就是都有一好原因！对他而言！所以我们也要找一个好原因！来对侍自己。

只要我们会想：坏事都可变成好事！

从前从前，有一位天使学到”宽恕”、和”包容”两个辞，希望其他天使帮他，让他能体验！

可是所有天使都说我们在天堂已经非常快乐了！

何必体验这个呢？

最后终于有位天使，被他的诚心所感动了！答应了他，在天堂无法感受，所以必须相约到人间去体验，后来就一起下凡了！

所以看看我们自己，看看从小到大

当你身边有人要伤害你、

有人骂你！甚至让你痛不欲生

记得他们都是和你相约而来的！

他就是那个愿意帮你的小天使，

让我们要感谢他！理解他！

随着时代的不断进步，科学技术的不断飞跃发展，科学技术使我们的生活有了翻天覆地的变化。

从以前做饭家家户户用的是草、秸杆到现在我们运用科学技术把这些没用的秸杆变成了千家万户都需要的天然气;以前出门，人们大多靠步行，现在我们的交通工具可多了，自行车、电瓶车、摩托车、汽车、地铁、磁场悬浮列车、火车、飞机应有尽有，以前传递消息大部分都靠鸿雁传书，最快要几天的时间，现在我们只要打开电脑，发个e-mail，就是远在天涯的朋友也能感觉近在咫尺。科学技术还使我们的航天事业有了飞速的发展，继神舟五号载人航天飞船成功发射后，神舟六号载人航天飞船又成功发射，成功返回，神舟六号不仅可以乘载多人，而且多天在太空飞行，这又是一项科学创举。

知识使人走进现代生活，引领人走进科学殿堂。我们要努力学习知识，打好坚实的基础，长大用自己学到的知识，为国家贡献自己的一份力量。

We have lived in Lida School for more than one year. I enjoy all the time here because it can bring me a lot of things such as feelings, knowledge and other things I need.

There are many trees and flowers around us. The trees are green all the year. When we sit in the classroom and look out of the windows, we can see a big tree shaking its strong arms to us. It is really wonderful.

In some ways, our thoughts are at large. Perhaps it makes our brains creative. I believe that nothing can tie up my mind even it stands for authority. The free life is just like our school life.

In our school, of course, there are both success and failure. We should not be proud but modest because there are too many people much better than myself. Actually, we also should muster up courage and work harder.

I like

We are honest.

We always keep promises.

We often think a lot.

We are never afraid of anything.

So we have our own school life different from others.

【参考范文】

High school is regarded as the best time in a persons life. As a senior three student, it wont take long before I graduate. Now, I have much to share with my

fellow students.

Firstly, I would like to show my appreciation to those standing by me all the way, teachers, parents and friends included. Without their help and advice, my life would be different. Secondly, its high time to say sorry to classmates whom I hurt or misunderstood. Communication and smiles act as bridges to friendship. Above all, Ive made up my mind to make every effort to study, for I believe hard work is the key to success. Just as the old saying goes, "no pains, no gains."

Finally I hope that all the younger fellows can make full use of time, because time and tide wait for no men.

We will never forget our freshman year at college. In general it is a time filled with anticipation, some anxiety, and wonderful discoveries.

College is much different than high school. You may decide to commute from your home to a local campus. Without doubt, the most dramatic freshman year is for those living away from home. What can we expect as we head off into the wonderful world of higher education?

The first thing I notice is the workload. It is heavier and more intense than I ever experienced before. The major challenges of college work are large volume of reading, short deadlines, and “endless” writing. A related effect that can be brought on by the workload is doubt, frustration, and loneliness if possible.

On some of those long, seemingly endless nights of studying and writing, it will be very natural for me to long for fine old days. Hang in there. These down periods will pass.

I have made a lot of new friends. I am sure college friendships will be among the most satisfying and long-term in my life. Its always exciting to discover how wonderfully diverse college relationships can be.

I am enjoying my newfound freedom. Stay up until dawn talking about my ideals and ambitions with my dorms regular bull session buddies. Sleep in until the afternoon on a light class day. Explore the local town or suburbs with one or two of my new friends.

I even start to think about my future. Going to college is as much about finding out who am I as it is about getting the degree.

I began school at seven in accordance with the law in a remote village. Short of funds, the school had only a few classrooms, all poorly constructed.  to say, our teachers were few, too. As a pupil I preferred the playground to the classroom and often liked to play tricks on girls, as by hiding insects in their desk drawers. On one occasion, I even grimaced behind the back of our teacher, caing the whole class to break into laughter; however, instead of becoming angry, he merely asked why we were laughing and wondered whether there was anything wrong with him. On ather occasion, I punctured the tires of a  parked inside the school by ing something sharppointed, leaving the principal frightened and bewildered after he had ticed that. Such were the happy moments in my life at that school. The happiest moment, to me and to all of my schoolmates, however, was the one when the school was letting out at the last bell of the day and we were rhing home as if we would never be back. Once, on our way home, a bunch of naughty students found a crickets hole and exerted themselves to inject water into it with loud cheers. The girls were  less frantic than the boys when they were having a good time at such games as jump-rope, hopscotch and battledore and shuttlecock.
