写一篇介绍我的房间的英语作文（优秀20篇）

My mother was my first teacher. All the memories of my childhood are in one way or another connected with mother. I can still remember clearly the days when she told me stories, played games with me and taught me simple maths.

Mother has some good qualities. As a primary school teacher, she is kind to all her students. And she love her work.I have seen her working at her desk late at night when I wake up many times. She is a responsible teacher. As her daughter I also learn a lot from her. She is indeed a good mother.

I love my mother. And I want to be a person like my mother.

我的妈妈是我的第一位老师。我童年所有的记忆都或多或少跟我的妈妈有联系。我仍然还记得她给我讲故事，跟我做游戏,教我做简单的数学题的那些日子。

妈妈有许多优秀的品质，作为一名小学教师，妈妈对所有的学生都非常好的，她热爱本职工作。有好多次，当我深夜睡觉几次醒来，还见她在书桌旁工作，她是一个负责任的老师。作为她的女儿，我从她身上也学到了许多。实际上，她也是一位称职的母亲。

我爱我的妈妈，我希望自己也能成为一个像她那样的人。

As is known, there are 4 seasons in a year. We witness their changing. Spring is always the seson with all the plants and flowers growing. Summer is hot but a happy season to us because we can enjoy the long summer vocation. Autumn is cool and comfortable that we can enjoy doing sports. While winter sometimes makes us vexed because of the coldness. They are all beautiful!

My plan for the future is that I would like to stay with children and share the moments in their lives and provide them with helpful advice, making friends with them and letting them feel you are the one they can talk and trust. I like English very much.with this idea, I want to combine my love for children with my ability of English together,so I can work in a pleasant environment doing the great things I enjoy doing.

I consider myself with rich potential of qualifying out as a good English teacher.I have a heart for children,a loving and caring heart.And I would certainly place it upon my students,being their close friend and sister.while with my creative and relaxing English teaching method,students would learn English through interacting with me or the others instead of being told what to say. I am also very open-minded and easy-going,which will make myself a popular figure everywhere.And of course I am very much the type of the girl next door.always willing to take in suggestions and create a fun classroom for our next generation.

I believe Ive said quite enough of myself. I hope you now know more about me than just now. I would certainly cherish this job and get along very well with all people out here.I thank you very much again for giving me this opportunity to talk with you.

I am looking forward to hearing good news from you.

Thank you !

Gulangyu---- a fairyland in the world As May Day is coming, many people plan a visit to Gulangyu, a beautiful island in Xiamen. Gulangyu is an island of Xiamen, which is surrounded by the blue sea. It’s like a garden on the water. You can go there by ship/sea. On the island, cars, buses and bikes are not permitted there. It is so quiet that wherever you go, you can hear the sound of playing the piano. As a result of this, it is called “ the island of music”.

(Thus/ Therefore) The Sunshine Rock is/lies on the highest place of the island. Standing on the top of it, you can enjoy/catch sight of the beautiful scenery of the whole Xiamen and other islands.

"I now declare the rules of the game: a man hides a few things, and a few others go and hide them," said the town. We drew a lot and finally decided to hide three coke bottle caps from our cousin. The cousin pushed us out of the room and hid things by herself... After a while, the cousin came out with a smile and said, "hide it, you cant find it!" We swarmed in, and I thought: the easiest place to hide is probably the most secluded place. So, I will seriously every corner to find it again, did not, in the look at the kid sister, drill under the bed, their tails on the outside, groping hands in it, no, she just want to stand up, "alas!" The little sister cried, and she cried, and she stood up under the bed and hit the bed.

So she stopped the game. Ah! One less opponent, but the cousin is also difficult to deal with, see her in the closet to each piece of clothing to turn over, wow! Not yet! But where exactly? I glanced around, and then I noticed a shiny object behind the curtain.

I pulled the curtain aside. Coke bottle caps! I was happy to jump three feet high, my cousin saw, a look of unconvinced. But shes picking up speed. Look for it here. I made haste, and under the bed and then watch out of the reach of little younger sister, and I found a coke bottle caps, my heart even more excited to get up, then I have found in a book under the last bottle. "Shout! It took me a lot of work! I sighed and said, my cousin, my cousin and my sister are all happy for me. The cousin said, "you are very observant!" I heard it, I was very happy.

I think that reading is can let a person look forward to, it is like to take me into the story, because either the length of the text and illustrations, will let me have a deep experience, and text also seems to have wings, that kind of feeling is good.

I like reading very much, I think that reading should be rewritten to read, "yue" because, only love reading, to see the content in mind, you cant really get harvest, not see the calculate, so it is no use. I look at the great man, learn a great "spirit" and "attitude". Saw the little puppet, inspired my imagination. Read the Snow White, let me know what can not believe others; Read the ugly duckling, let me not from the face, looks after judging other people.

People like to read books, always immersed in the interesting story book, let me the heart opens a window, let my world a better place! And I often forget to do this because of the reading, I often do homework in the reading, the result be mother scold badly; And the one who doesnt like reading a book, picked up a thick book, feel like a math exam one hundred so pain, pain annoyed to want to commit suicide, at that time, my mood is like a charred by the raging fire of forest, so empty.

Dont like to read books, and is full of video games, like a beggar, need our help; But while some people like to read, and finally still addicted to video games, even if used to get more knowledge, also will forget the pleasure of reading.

我觉得，阅读是会让人期待的，它彷彿是带我进入了故事中，因为不管是文字的长短或插图，都会让我有深深的体会，而且文字也好像长出了翅膀，那种感觉真是美好。

我非常喜欢阅读，我觉得阅读应该 要改写成“悦”读，因为，只有喜爱阅读，把看到的内容记在脑子里，才能真正得到收获，不是看了就算了，这样是没有用的。我看了伟人传，学到了伟人的“精神”与“态度”;看了小木偶，启发了我的想像力;阅读了白雪公主，让我知道不可以乱相信别人;看过丑小鸭，让我不会从小的时候的面貌，来判断别人以后的长相。

喜欢读书的人，总是沉浸在故事书的趣味之中，让我的心灵打开了一扇窗，让我的世界变得更加美好!而我，常因为看书而忘了要做该做的事，我常常在写功课时看书，结果被妈妈骂得很惨;而不喜欢看书的人，感觉拿起一本厚厚的书，像是要写一百张数学考卷那么痛苦，痛苦烦闷到都想自杀了，那时候，我的心情就像被熊熊大火烧过的森林，那么的空虚。

不喜欢读书，而满脑子都是电玩的人，就像乞丐一样，需要我们帮忙;但有些人虽然喜欢阅读，最后还是迷上了电玩，就算以前得到了再多的知识，也还是会忘记阅读的乐趣的。

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。

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 "god‘s 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.

相反的悲伤的墓扫墓，人们也希望享受春天的这一天。清明节是一个阳光灿烂的日子，树和草都变绿了，大自然又恢复了活力。自古以来，人们都有踏青的习俗。此时到处是游客。

人们喜欢在清明节期间放风筝。风筝放飞其实并不限于清明节。它的独特之处在于人们在白天不放风筝，晚上也放风筝。一串串的小灯笼拴在风筝上或是线上看起来像闪亮的星星，因此被称为“上帝的灯笼”。

清明节也是一个植树的时候，树苗的成活率很高，树木生长快。在过去，清明节被称为“植树节”。但自1979以来，“植树节”定在3月12日根据公历。

想要获得更加高分的英语写作，在语言表达需要增加一些"亮点"。下面是语文迷为大家提供的具体指导，大家一起来阅读吧。

一、了解高分作文的特点

要想作文获得高分，必须了解高分作文具有的特点，才有助于我们朝之而努力。高分作文一般具有以下特点：

1、书写工整，书面整洁，很少有涂改痕迹。

2、分段合理。全文分段一般不止一个自然段，让阅卷老师很容易就能找到作文所要求写的要点和重要句子。

3、要点齐全，不缺要点。

4、首尾呼应，自然成一体。

5、使用了大量的高级词汇和句型。阅卷老师一看就知道这个同学的功底非不一般，自然就给打高分了。

6、开头言简意赅，不啰嗦，不偏题，迅速引入主题。

7、段与段之间，自然过渡。有合适的连接词。

8、句与句之间，有恰当的连接词，使之自然成一体。

9、全文中同一个意思，基本没有重复使用某一个词、短语或者句型等，说明这个同学的词汇量不同寻常。老师自然就对该作文有好感了。

10、能够恰当使用谚语、格言等给文章添彩。

二、勤积累，巧准备

要想作文得高分，除了了解以上的特点外，还要在平时的学习中注意一下方面：

1、牢记课标词汇是基础

一篇作文多数是由积极词汇写出来的，这些词汇主要来源于课标。因此，牢记课标词汇是写好作文的基础。

2、掌握课标词汇和短语的用法

要想作文不扣分或者少扣分，有个要求是作文的语病少。怎么能够减少语病呢?这就要求我们在平时的学习过程中反复通过练习，掌握课标词汇和短语等的用法。例如，对于as soon as 、stop some body from doing something 、other 、another等的用法很多学生就经常出错。

3、高度重视同一个意思的多种表达方式

高分作文有个特点是：让老师发现你拥有丰富的词汇量，你的水平高人一筹。这由何而来?靠我们在平时学习过程中，逐步积累起来的。比如：今年的中考作文，谈的就是帮助他人的问题。同一个意思“帮助”，假如你就用一个动词“help”，岂不显得你词汇贫乏?假如你在作文中不断地变换方式，用help、give somebody a hand、 give a hand to somebody 、be in need of 等以表达“帮助”同一个意思，岂不更好呢?

像这样的例子很多，比如：大家都觉得很简单又很基础的“表示姓名的方式”就有：My name is Jim. I’m Jim. I’m called/named Jim. I’m a boy called /named /with the name of Jim. 等等。

表达年龄的方式有：She is 12. She is 12 years old. She is aged 12. She is a girl of 12(years old). She is a girl aged 12.等等。

很显然，使用高级一点的更好。

4、加强练习，积累经验

学习语言最好的方法是运用，作文也不例外。我们要想作文得高分，必须经常练习，才能提高水平。

5、充分利用作文范文

很多资料书上都有作文范文。诚然，他们有很多值得借鉴的地方。

我们怎么利用它们呢?首先，我们先不要看文章，自己先思考一下：假如你来写，你会怎么去写，会用到哪些词或者句子等。然后去比较，勾出其中的好词佳句，并且把它摘录在专门的作文册子上。供写作时选用。

另外，背一些范文也是很有必要的。

6、背诵一些谚语和警句

作文中如果出现恰当的谚语和警句，会有锦上添花的效果。

三、精心审题，沉着写初稿

很多同学看到作文后，下笔就写。这是不对的。一则很容易写偏题、写出病句，涂改后书面又不整洁，影响得分。

其实，会写作文的同学都知道，审题非常的重要，可以防止很多毛病，提高得分。那么我们审题要做些什么呢?

审题主要要做一下事情：

1、审人称、时态、体裁等

审题时，要求我们要弄清楚这篇文章主要使用的人称是第几人称，什么时态、什么体裁。这些问题解决后至少不会犯很严重的错误：全文皆错。例如，如果一篇文章，本来应该一般过去时，你的每句话却用了一般现在时态。你想想，那还能得高分吗?

2、明确必须表达的要点

高分作文有个特点是要点齐全。如果漏掉一个要点，则要扣分。因此我们必须认真细读其要求，把必须表达的要点勾出来。保证不漏掉任何一个要点。

3、罗列出可能会用到的短语、句型，确定好使用哪个?

4、确定好如何分段

就是要确定好，将哪些要点放在一个自然段里面，首段、尾段打算写哪些?

拓展阅读：写好作文"加分点"

合理使用动词使表达更生动

(例)In front of the building, there was a tall tree。

In front of the building stood a tall tree。巧妙使用动词短语增加表达的新颖性

(例)I like writing poems at middle school。。

I took great interest in writing poems at middle school。

改变动词增强文章的感染色彩

(例)When she heard he had died, she was very sad。

At the news of his death, she felt very sad。

My name is xxx. I amxx years old. Contrary to common belief，Ican actually speak in English. I was born in xxx. I have studied xxx, xxx, andEnglish。I do like English because it is a common language widely spoken aroundthe world.For most travellers, they could understand English in addition totheir native language.
