白天,老师站在三尺讲台为我们呕心沥血的讲课;夜晚,月亮已经爬上了树梢,可老师还在那摇曳的灯光下辛勤的为我们作业本上打着道道鲜艳的红勾……也许当一个人被成功的喜悦包围时,他会忘记自己的亲人,但他决不会忘记自己的老师,因为他的成功也有老师的一份功劳。

我也一样,无论我长多大,走多远,我也不会忘记自己敬爱的老师,因为我是在老师的呵护,爱的沐浴下长大成才的,无论我走到天涯海角也不会忘记自己的老师,所以我向往老师这个职业。

现在我还是个小学生,我以后一定要勤奋、努力地学习,勤学苦练,长大后才能走向梦想中的三尺讲台。

篇6:高三年级英语作文:Practice Makes Perfect

The saying that practice makes perfect means that after you have plenty of practice in what you are doing, you will be perfect in it. He who practices a lot will master the skill more quickly than he who seldom or hardly practices.

For example, when we learn English, we have to learn grammar, words, expressions and so on. The most important thing may be how to put what we have learned into practice. If you only learn the grammar rules by heart and dont do enough exercises, it is certain that you cant understand them perfectly. But if you practice a lot, maybe you will understand them more deeply and you can find some good methods of applying them. Memorizing English words whenever time permits,we can easily memorize them and can even find a way to memorize them more quickly.

There is another example. A famous singer can sing very welt. Of course, his talent is very important, but practice is necessary. It is necessary to practice to make the singer sing better and better.

It is evident that practice is important for everybody. If you want to improve your study and work, you should remember that practice makes perfect.

春天真美,让我们怀着快乐的心情去寻找它吧! The spring is true, let us find it with a happy mood!

春天在美丽的森林里。大山爷爷脱下美丽的皮袄,换上了翠绿的春装,鸟儿妈妈带着它的子女来到这里筑巢,咦,鸟妈妈又飞出来干嘛呀?原来是去捉虫,孩子们在窝里唱着欢快的歌,其等着妈妈回来。小松鼠听见了小鸟那欢快的歌声,走出树洞在树枝上跳来跳去,好像也去外面寻找食物。

春天在美丽的树枝上。河边柳树抽出了嫩芽,柳条随风飘舞,好像一位小姑娘站在河边梳理自己的长发。桃花开了白的像雪、粉的似霞。迎春花也开了,一朵朵小花像一个个小喇叭,吹着动听的吹着动听的春之歌。雪白的玉兰花和梨花竞相开放争奇斗艳。

春天在绿油油的草地上。一场春雨过后,小草从湿漉漉泥土里悄悄地探出头来,睁大眼睛东瞧瞧,西看看,大声赞叹“春天真美,我要为春天添加绿色。”草地上开满了五颜六色的野花,花儿不时的散发出一阵阵香味,引来勤劳的小蜜蜂,在花丛中采蜜,引来了美丽的蝴蝶在花丛中翩翩起舞。

春天在清澈见底的河里。小河里的冰融化了,河水哗哗地流着。小鱼在水里游泳,鸭妈妈带着自己的子女在水里练习游泳,真是“春江水暖鸭先知”呀!这时小青蛙被惊醒了,它伸了伸懒腰,“呱呱呱”地叫着,好像在说“我要为农民伯伯捉虫了。”

春天在蔚蓝的天空中。大雁排着整齐的队伍从南方飞回来了,小燕子在天空中“叽叽喳喳’叫着。一只只风筝徐徐升上天空,点缀的更美丽了。

春天真是万物复苏、生机勃勃的季节,我爱春天。

篇10:高二关于戒烟的英语作文优秀篇

Everyone has their own habits, have a good habit, also have bad habits, we learn to complement each other.

But in our life, there are a lot of people have the bad habit of smoking, though they know the dangers of smoking to human body, but they are going to do, or really confusing.

In my side, though in many places with big slogan: no smoking, but there are still many people smoking unashamed. Although the cigarette case, all printed with the words, "smoking is harmful to health" but people turn a blind eye, to continue to their "hobby".

"Merchants if we know that smoking is harmful to health, why production cigarette?" I feel puzzled. Dont know who replied: "of course, because there are many people smoking, producing cigarette making money." I thought: if the country increased taxes, let the merchants cant make money, but at a loss, can reduce cigarette body is native to enjoy? The answer is yes. When the state is treated as "humen" cigarettes, smokers will be like those opium, become less and less, when it comes to cigarette harm people will be less and less.

The dangers of smoking, so I advise those smokers: only harm smoking, smoking just can satisfy what are a kind of desire, so youd better give up smoking as soon as possible.

每个人都有自己的习惯,有好习惯,也有坏习惯,我们要学会取长补短。

但在我们的生活中,有许多人有吸烟的坏习惯,虽然他们知道吸烟对人体的危害,但他们还是要去做,着实令人费解。

在我的身边,虽然在许多地方贴着大大的标语:禁止吸烟,但是还是有许多人毫无顾忌的吸烟。虽然在所有的香烟盒上,都印着“吸烟有害健康”的字样,但是人们视而不见,继续他们的“爱好”。

“商家既然知道‘吸烟有害健康’,为什么还要生产香烟呢?”我感到疑惑不解。不知是谁答道:“当然是因为吸烟的人多,生产香烟有钱赚咯。”我想:如果国家增加税,让商家赚不到钱,反而亏本,会不会减少香烟的身产于享受呢?答案是肯定的。当国家像“虎门销烟”一样来对待香烟,吸烟者一定会像吸食鸦片的人一样,变得越来越少,说到香烟危害的人也会越来越少。

吸烟的危害数不胜数,所以我奉劝那些吸烟者:吸烟只有害处,吸烟只是能满足呢们的一种欲望罢了,所以你们还是尽早把烟戒掉吧。

Between the darkness of earth and heaven she was burning fiercely upon a

disc of purple sea shot by the blood-red play of gleams; upon a disc of water

ascended from the ocean, and from its summit the black smoke poured continuously

at the sky. She burned furiously, mournful and imposing like a funeral pile

kindled in the night, surround-ed by the sea, watched over by the stars.

A magnificent death had come like a grace, like a gift, like a reward to

that old ship at the end of her laborious days. The surrender of her weary ghost

to the keeping of stars and sea was stirring like the sight of a glorious

triumph. The masts fell just before daybreak, and for a moment there was a burst

and turmoil of sparks that seemed to fill with flying fire the night patient and

watchful, the vast night lying silent upon the sea.
