清明时节雨纷纷，路上行人欲断魂。借问酒家何处有，牧童遥指杏花村。

清明的这一天格外清冷，风吹得树叶如同经过深沉的铜铃沙沙作响，又恍惚听见了故去英雄们的唤声，黑土下的英雄啊!你们好似再一次苏醒，在破晓的天边，在红旗下，挥动着战旗。伸出双手，向着明天问好。战士们啊!你们是否还在担心侵略者?是否还在为国担忧?不用了，逝去的英雄们，谢谢你们为我们付出的一切，我们的生活很美好，你们将在我们的心中长存!

风儿轻轻地吹，雨儿轻轻地下，蒙蒙小雨在油菜花田中飘舞着，田野中回荡着家人们的欢声笑语，什么让他们这般开心呢?是那一件又一件的往事，一件件回不去的往事啊。走在亲人的坟前，浮现的是一张张他们昔日的笑脸。

我走到太爷的坟前，回忆像旋转木马，在脑海中转个不停，徜徉在阳光下，太爷慈祥的面容重现在我的面前。我说着、笑着向我的妹妹讲着往事，讲着太爷在木藤椅上为我讲故事的情景，不忍讲述太爷在病房中的样子。妹妹还小，天真地问我：“姐姐，太爷在哪?”“在天堂，一个很美的地方。”“天堂?天堂在哪?我能去走走吗?我能去找太爷吗?”我无奈地笑了笑，竟不知该如何回答。

打火机在坟前的纸钱中绕了一圈，火升起来了，纸线飘飘，在空中飞扬，件件温暖的往事在火中展现着，刺着我的心。

不知何处传来一句话“想他吗?”不由自主答了一个字：“想。”

我知道你们去世已是往事，现在不可能再回来，留下的只有我们在悲伤，瑟瑟的风一直在刮，吹动着人们真情的心，带着生命叹息的唱歌散去每个角落……

我的亲人，你在哪里?早晨为你摘的鲜花，下午成为你的葬礼，一块石板隔着两重天，墙都成了窗，却不见光。用手托起灵魂，轻轻抚去你的伤……

There is an English proverb which says (saying) “Honesty is the best

policy.” It signifies the importance of honesty.

What are the benefits of honesty? If you are honest to others, they will be

honest to you in return. When you are sad, they will comfort you. When you are

in trouble, they will help you.

There is no enumerating the evils of dishonesty here. In a word, a

dishonest man will be looked down upon by others and (be) regarded as a public

enemy.

The human race has entered a completely new stage in its history,along with

the advance of the society and the increaceingly rapid economic globalization

and urbanization, which resulted in the phenomenon that we are accustomed to

living a very fast rhythm lifestyle,ignoring the Chinese traditional

culture.

It is universally acknowledged that Chinese culture has a history of more

than two thousand years, which once had great influence on the world, such as

Japan, South Korea and other Asian and European countries. As one of the four

ancient civilizations,China creates many splendid cultures,such as the four

ancient Chinese inventions,which benefited human society in the history.

Although China risks copying the Western lifestyle’s worst aspects,

especially of unhealthy eating and drinking,Which once gave rise to many

problems.Fortunately,Chinese begin to realize the importance of Chinese

traditional culture.Such examples might be given easily,Chinese traditional

culture was added into our CET4 and CET6 ,which help us get hold of it

better.

There is no doubt that we all want to be successful. But what’s the main

concern of the way to success? From Abraham Lincoln’s famous remark, “Give me

six hours to chop down a tree, and I will spend the first four sharpening the

axe”, I learn that if we want to achieve success, we must make full preparation

for it.

Only if we are well prepared, can we catch the opportunity which occurs

once in a while. In our daily life, we have to expand our horizon and lay a

solid foundation for success. It will be a long way to be successful thus we

have to accumulate our knowledge day by day. And we can’t achieve success in one

or two days. It will help us solve problems more efficiently if we have a broad

horizon. What’s more, opportunities always occur out of our expectation so we

have to make ourselves well prepared. If we prepared, we will catch up with it

whenever it comes up.

Opportunities give priorities to the people who make preparation for them.

What’s more, success goes along with opportunities. We should develop the

ability to solve problems in different and efficient ways therefore we can make

our way to success more easily.

导语：环保，全称环境保护，是指人类为解决现实的或潜在的环境问题，协调人类与环境的关系，保障经济社会的持续发展而采取的各种行动的总称。以下是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的关于环保的英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

Ladies and gentlemen,

I feel it a great honor to have a chance to give a speech here, talking about the haze weather, which causes lots of bad effects on our health and life. We breathe polluted air, making us suffer from lung and liver diseases. Besides, because of it, the flights have to be canceled. All kind of transports may run into each other, resulting in much damages and lots of injuries.

As far as I am concerned, it is high time that we did something. As individuals, we should ride the underground or buses instead of cars to reduce carbon dioxide. As government, more measures should be taken by carrying out the related law on pollution.

In summary, we re all looking forward to breathe fresher air and live a happier life. Everyone should be a part of this job.

Thank you for your listening.

女士们和先生们，

我很荣幸能有机会在这里做演讲，和大家谈谈这给我们健康和生活带来不好影响的灰霾天气。我们呼吸这被污染过的空气，让我们遭受肺、肝疾病。另外，由于这天气，航班被迫取消。各种交通工具相撞在一起，造成很大的毁灭和伤害。

我觉得是时候我们该做些什么了。我们应该乘坐地铁或公共汽车而不是汽车来减少二氧化碳。政府应该实施更多针对污染的相关法律的。

总之，我们都盼望着能呼吸到更新鲜的空气，过着更快乐的生活。每个人都应该参与进来。

谢谢大家的聆听。

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。

what s your plan for dragon boat festival?

As a chinese, I was really ashamed of having a little knowledge of dragon boat festival. Perhaps I was born in northern city, though my city is nearby sea, it has been built a U port which I can only see cargo ships and can t see the sweeping ocean. So I have never see the dragon boat contest since I was born. So the dragon boat festival is just a holiday for eating Zong Zi . My mother made Zong Zi when I was a child. Because there was no supermarket, we couldn t buy finished product from market. However, now, we can buy anything in supermarket, so my mother didn t make them anymore. The boat festival began to fade out my mind.

In reality, young people began to have a bug to celebrate foreign festivals, such as Christams, Saint Valentine s day, April Fool s Day, some people also celebrate Easter in church. Talk about Dragon boat festival, it s the same as some foreign conventional festivals, such as Witch s Day in Czech. People burned the witch s puppet so as to welcome spring. Some people are willing to celebrate foreign festivals because they like alien culture. And vice versa, foreigners who like China also concern about Chinese traditional culture.

After new holiday regulation, we have three holidays during the dragon boat festival. So many people will choose this time to travel. People who lived in Xiamen are able to visit Xiapu or Wu Yi mountain, these tourist attractions are in Fujian province,which is suit a short tirp. but I d like to stay at home for my decorate painting. I decide to draw two canvases about Christmas, it s really a big project. Then I ll hang them on the new house wall. I must start it now, or I can t finish them before Christmas eve. But I preceive it s a little difficult to draw them in such a hot season.

In high school, Chinese students study very hard to fight for the future

college, while in western countries, students are spending time in taking all

kinds of activities. Though students from different countries have different

ways to spend high school time, they make the decision and take charge of their

life. This is the best age to learn knowledge, their brain can remember words

and numbers quickly. For making friends, they will probably meet their lifetime

friends. During three years, besides gaining knowledge and making friends, they

grow so fast, not only in body, but also in mind. Being independent is the main

feature. They can make a lot of decisions without asking parents for help. When

they are equipped themselves with basic skill, then they can better get used to

the new environment, which is important for future life.

Mid-autumn Day is more or less like Spring Festival. It falls on the 15th

day of the 8th lunar month. Its an important day for our Chinese, because its

a family reunion day.

On that day, there will be a big family dinner. Everyone who works outside

will go back home for the union. And they also eat moon cakes, which are the

special food for this festival. There are various kinds of moon cakes. They are

so delicious that everyone enjoys them very much.

In the evening, the moon is so bright and round, so people always prepare

some fruits and moon cakes and put them under the moon so as to pray for the

health and security all the year round. It seems that everyone is so happy.

Environmental problems are being more and more serious all over the world。

For example， cars have made the air unhealthy for people to breathe and

poisonous gas is given off by factories。 Trees on the hills have been cut down

and waste water is being poured continuously into rivers。Furthermore， wherever

we go today， we can find rubbish carelessly disposed。 Pollution is， in fact，

threatening our existence。

The earth is our home and we have the duty to take care of it for ourselves

and for our later generations。 Fortunately， more and more people have realized

these problems。 Measures have been taken to cope with these problems by the

government。 Laws have been passed to stop pollution。 I hope the problem will be

solved in the near future and our home will bee better and better。

The wind gently murmured,puffed and sometimes sighed like a summer breeze lifting the leaves along the livelong night.The cat was curling up quiet in her bed.The mouse was sleeping carefree in his gallery.The dog was lying swwet on the sofa.Even the earth itself was sleeping in tranquility,exept that some house door faintly creaked upon its hinge,telling us a remote inward warmth.Nature was at her midnight work with feathery flakes whirling down in the wind,as if she was showering her silvery seeds over the fields.

Finally I woke up.The floor creaked under my feet as I moved towards the window.The snow as warm as cotton was lying calmly upon the window sill and the stillness of the morning was extremely impressive.

The roofs were standing under their snow caps,while the eaves were wearing their glittering ornaments.The trees raised white arms to the sky on every side,and where there was a wall,there were some fantastic forms of snow stretching exhilarated in the dim landscape,as if Nature had carved her fresh desighs by night as models for mans art.

Silently,I opened the door and stepped outside to face the cutting air.The moon had already lost some of its glow and the land was bathed in a dull mist.A lurid light in the east proclaimed the approach of day while the weatern landscape was bleak with some spooky stillness like a wizard kingdom.What you could only hear was the creepy sounds,seemingly out of the hell----the barking of dogs,the hammering of blacksmith,the lowing of cows and the crying of pigs under the butchers knife.

Gradually,the lurid light darkened and spread across the west.Every flower,every tree and

every weed were bathed in the sunshine.Suddenly,it turned out that all the sounds were not for any melancholy they suggested,but for their twilight bustle which was too solemn and mysterious for me.

I moved om,treading briskly along the road,the dry and crisped snow crunching under my feet.

Two years ago, I was a bad child, I didn’t listen to what my parents told

me, I do against what they expect me to do. One day, I go home very late, my

mother is very angry, but she says nothing. At first, I feel happy, the next

morning, she still ignores me, I begin to feel lonely, I cry and say sorry. My

mother smiles and says I should change myself, since then, I become a good

child.

Most smokers are males, because they need to smoke for social communication

or for set themselves free from the pressure. In the packaging, we can find that

every packaging has written the words that smoking is harmful to health. Though

smokers know it, they ignore it. For the harmony of the family, people should

quit smoking.

To quit smoking is not easy, people know smoking does harm to their health,

but they just can’t resist the temptation and then start to smoke again, so they

must have strong will. They must tell themselves that smoking not only does harm

to their health, but also does harm to their families. The families will have

much chance to take in the second-hand cigarette, in order to keep the families

healthy, smokers must have the strong will to quit smoke.

When people find it hard not to smoke, their mouth will feel uneasy, they

want to smoke again. At that time, people can find some food or fake cigarette

to take place of the real cigarette, in the long time, they will have less

desire to smoke.

大家知道，人类文明的起源与森林是密不可分的。森林不仅能调节气候，保护土壤，防止风沙，减少自然灾害，还能给人类提供食物，燃料，木料，药材等生活必需品。森林是空气的过滤器，是天然的制氧场，它制造出清新的氧气，人和动、植物才得以生存。假如没有森林，地球将变成一片荒漠，人类就失去了赖以生存的条件，那时世界将变得多么可怕呀!因此，我要向人们大声疾呼：地球需要绿色，保护森林就是保护人类自己。保护森林，重在防火!

人们常说：贼偷一担，火烧一看。尤其是森林防火极为重要，一旦森林失火那后果不堪设想，将会给人们的生命财产造成不可估量的损失。我们经常在电视中看到一幕幕森林失火的惨景，一片片郁郁葱葱的森林，一个个村庄还有人畜等被大火吞噬，真是惨不忍睹。有这样一个例子：某国有林场因村民抽烟后乱扔烟蒂引发森林大火，烧毁树林一千多亩，房屋十多栋，四名扑救人员死亡，直接经济损失上百万元。这样的例子不可计数同济生殖器疱疹治疗。

引发森林火灾以人为因素居多，主要是野外用火引起的。水火无情，有句古训说得好：玩火者必自焚。人们一个不经意的举动，就给森林带来了灭顶之灾，也给人们带来无尽的伤痛，所以，森林防火，人人有责。那么在森林防火中，我们小学生应该做些什么呢假性尖锐湿疣的症状?首先，从我做起，不在野外玩火，不在野外放鞭炮;第二，做森林防火的小宣传员，向身边的人宣传森林防火的重要性，并告诉人们，避免火灾重在预防，提高森林防火意识。总之，让我们一起守护这绿色的家园，让森林造福人类，永远茂盛美丽，万古长青。

In the United States in the early nineteenth century, Dolly Madison, the wife of the fourth American President, organized an egg roll in Washington, D.C. She had been told that Egyptian children used to roll eggs against the pyramids so she invited the children of Washington to roll hard-boiled eggs down the hilly lawn of the new Capitol building! The custom continued, except for the years during the Civil War. In 1880, the First Lady invited children to the White House for the Egg Roll because officials had complained that they were ruining the Capitol lawn. It has been held there ever since then, only canceled during times of war. The event has grown, and todayEasterMonday is the only day of the year when tourists are allowed to wander over the White House lawn. The wife of the President sponsors it for the children of the entire country. The egg rolling event is open to children twelve years old and under. Adults are allowed only when accompanied by children!

Traditionally, many celebrants (司仪神父) bought new clothes for Easter which they wore to church. After church services, everyone went for a walk around the town. This led to the American custom of Easter parades all over the country. Perhaps the most famous is along Fifth Avenue in New York City.

传统上，很多人(司仪神父)买了复活节他们穿着新衣服去教堂。在教会服务，每个人都在镇上到处走走。本LED美国复活节游行全国各地的风俗。也许最有名的是在纽约市第五大道。

Good Friday is a federal holiday in 16 states and many schools and businesses throughout the U.S. are closed on this Friday.

今天，是一个不同寻常的日子。再过100天，我们将迎来2022年高考。我们9.3的全体同学，就要结束紧张而美好的初中生活，去迎接人生的挑战了，我们似乎已能看到那场没有硝烟的战斗，仿佛闻到了剑拔弩张的火药味。在这个特殊的日子里，我班今天召开高考冲刺百日倒计时班会，目的是为我们学生加油、呐喊、助威。如果把初中三年的学习比作一次一千米的长跑，那么现在已跑过最后一个弯道，距终点只有百米之遥了，在这有限的时间里，我们全体的老师一定倾其所有，助你们扬帆远航。一百天的时间内，也许我们对你们有更苛刻的要求，更艰苦的训练，更严厉的批评，但我们相信大家能够理解，这一切，都是为了大家能够出类拔萃，为了大家能够有所作为……

同学们，现在已经到了高考倒计时的紧要关头了。在今后的日子里，我们每个同学都要放下包袱，静下心来，发扬奋力拼搏、永不言败的精神，不抛弃、不放弃，师生共同努力，全身心地奋战高考，考出满意的成绩!

同学们：关键时刻，头脑一定要清醒，只有100天了。高考与我们距离将越来越近，要在自己心中竖立一块倒计时牌，要有紧迫感和危机感，要一门心思扑到学习上，将全部精力、全部时间用到学习上。干扰大目标的任何想法、任何行为都要坚决排除。帮助你成功的任何建议、任何批评都要悉心倾听。总之，就是从现在开始，戒除一切与学习与高考无关的活动，全身心地投入到学习当中去。希望同学们以对自己一生负责、对家长负责的态度，自觉管好自己的每一天，无悔于自己的每一天。

同学们，花无百日红，青春不重在，从这一刻起，为了父母那殷殷期盼地心情，为了老师那充满期待的目光，我们要努力;为了那使人向往地高一级学校，为了使自己的人生更加地丰富充实，我们要努力;为了一切关心我们、爱护我们，给我们以帮助的所有的人，为了自己的未来，我们要努力!我们要认真地对待剩下的每一分每一秒，我们要努力地去谱写一页，一页属于自己的辉煌篇章。

珍惜100天，让父母恩师在六月获得期望;奋斗100天，让雄心智慧在六月发出光芒;拼搏100天，让飞翔的梦在六月张开翅膀。

One story about Jack,an Irishman,who was not allowed into Heaven because he was stingy with his money.So he was sent to hell.But down there he played tricks on the Devil (Satan),so he was kicked out of Hell and made to walk the earth forever carrying a lantern.

Well,Irish children made Jacks lanterns on October 31st from a large potato or turnip,hollowed out with the sides having holes and lit by little candles inside.And Irish children would carry them as they went from house to house begging for food for the village Halloween festival that honored the Druid god Muck Olla.The Irish name for these lanterns was "Jack with the lantern" or "Jack of the lantern," abbreviated as " Jack-o-lantern" and now spelled "jack-o-lantern."

The traditional Halloween you can read about in most books was just childrens fun night.Halloween celebrations would start in October in every elementary school.

关于万圣节有这样一个故事.是说有一个叫杰克的爱尔兰人,因为他对钱特别的吝啬,就不允许他进入天堂,而被打入地狱.但是在那里他老是捉弄魔鬼撒旦,所以被踢出地狱,罚他提着灯笼永远在人世里行走.

在十月三十一日爱尔兰的孩子们用土豆和萝卜制作“杰克的灯笼”,他们把中间挖掉、表面上打洞并在里边点上蜡烛.为村里庆祝督伊德神的万圣节,孩子们提着这种灯笼挨家挨户乞讨食物.这种灯笼的爱尔兰名字是“拿灯笼的杰克”或者“杰克的灯笼”,缩写为Jack-o-lantern .

现在你在大多数书里读到的万圣节只是孩子们开心的夜晚.

Whether sixty or sixteen, there is in every human beings heart the lure of

wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of whats next and the joy of the game

of living. In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station:

so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from

men and from the infinite, so long are you young.

An individual human existence should be like a river—small at first,

narrowly contained within its banks, and rushing passionately past boulders and

over waterfalls. Gradually the river grows wider, the banks recede, the waters

flow more quietly, and in the end, without any visible break, they become merged

in the sea, and painlessly lose their individual being.

Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, of the

appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a man of

sixty more than a boy of twenty. Nobody grows old merely by a number of years.

We grow old by deserting our ideals.

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.

Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.
