每个人都拥有属于自己童年的记忆. -----题记童年，是朦胧的诗，是淡雅的画，是经典的歌……童年的我，天真幼稚、机灵活泼;童年的我，想象丰富、乐观开朗。

在那逝去的年华里，我是简单而幸福的。不必说望着星空发呆的悠闲，不必说躲在被窝里睡懒觉的惬意，也不必说模仿球星投篮时的兴奋，单是吮吸着冰糕看着漫画在大街上闲逛的那份无与伦比的简单快乐，就能让我回味无穷。

在那些逝去的年华里，我体味到一种叫“爱”的东西。也许是老师带病仍坚持为我们上课的情景;也许是妈妈冒雨为我送来干爽和安慰的情景;也许是同学们主动帮我打扫教室卫生的场景……究竟是哪种情景触动了我敏感的心弦，都无从谈起。但有一点可以确定，在“母爱”、“师爱”、“友爱”等“爱”的一望无际的海洋中，我扬起希望的风帆，努力向前驶去。

在那些逝去的年华里，时间像箭似的掠过，只留我独自一人形单影孤地在记忆的孤岛上徘徊。那一颗颗闪亮的珍珠，是我傻笑时的样子吗?那一只只洁白的鸥鹭，是我幻想时的样子吗?那一棵棵高大的树木，是我成长时的样子吗……轻轻拾起一片思绪的花瓣，我要把它制成一张别致的书签，让它永远在文字的世界里散发芳香，永远……

童年是一幅画，画里有我们五彩的生活;童年是一首歌，歌里有我们的幸福和欢乐;童年是一个梦，梦里有我们的想象和憧憬。在我记忆的心扉中，童年时的启示让我至今难忘……

那是一个骄阳似火的下午，爸爸买了一个大西瓜，我看见馋得直流口水，迫不及待的把那又大又圆的西瓜切成一小块一小块的，拿起来就往嘴里塞，吃完就顺手把西瓜皮扔到楼下爸爸看见了我这一行为，批评了我，可我把爸爸的话当耳旁风，左耳朵进右耳朵出。

事后，有一次我放学回家，带着愉悦的心情又蹦又跳，突然“扑通”一声，我被西瓜皮绊倒了，这时，我那愉悦的心情不知道一下子跑哪儿了，消失的无影无踪。哎!我的膝盖还磕破了，并且流了血，我回到家对妈妈说起这件事，并谴责扔瓜皮的那个人，正巧，这让爸爸听见了，他笑了起来，说：“你上次把瓜皮从楼上扔下去，这下遭到报应了吧。”顿时，我恍然大悟，想起了上次扔瓜皮的那件事……

通过这件事，我懂得了：从楼上往下扔东西是一种不文明的行为，而且，这样还会伤害到别人。

夏天过去，秋天过去，冬天又来了，童年时扔瓜皮的启示一次次的在我脑海里浮现，可童年却一去不返了。现在，每当我看到又大又圆的西瓜时，就想起了童年时扔瓜皮的事情。童年又重临于我的心头。

I have to do the housework at the age of eight.. I think hard-working will improve my alone situation. It is an old saying that “spare the rod and spoil the child’.We can improve our skill in the child.. I have to go to school and to cook meal in the childhood. Nowadays,Ican do anything on my own.It is also go at my grow.

Time flies,but the memories of my childhood still like a sweet dream.When I remind of those funny things,I always wear a big smile on my face.Althought they are infantile,innocent and silly,I cherish them a lot.I know the fact that I can not experience them any more.

The first time I played roller-skating,I was excited.It was my classmate’s birthday,he invited many friends to the skating rink.I wasn’t good at roller-skating.He suggested me skate by the side.then he would ask his brother who was proficient to teach me.According to his brother,I could skate freely .Finally,he organized all his friends.We put our hands on others’ shoulder.We skated like a train.All the people in the skating rink stopped to watch us.I thought they might feel our passion. and be deeply affected.

If I were a boy again, I would practice perseverance more often, and never give up a thing because it was or inconvenient. if we want light, we must conquer darkness. perseverance can sometimes equal genius in its results. “there are only two creatures,” says a proverb, “who can surmount the pyramids—the eagle and the snail.”

if i were a boy again, I would school myself into a habit of attention; i would let nothing come between me and the subject in hand. i would remember that a good skater never tries to skate in two directions at once.the habit of attention becomes part of our life, if we begin early enough. i often hear grown up people say “ i could not fix my attention on the sermon or book, although I wished to do so” , and the reason is, the habit was not formed in youth.

if I were to live my life over again, I would pay more attention to the cultivation of the memory. I would strengthen that faculty by every possible means, and on every possible occasion. it takes a little hard work at first to remember things accurately; but memory soon helps itself, and gives very little trouble. it only needs early cultivation to become a power.

Recently, the news reported a girl from Russia died while she was doing her job. When I saw the news, I was so shocked, because she was the same age with me, but she had started her career as a model many years ago. She died of overwork. What a pity. A teenager should enjoy herChildhood, and she should go to school and play with her friends. When we grow up, we will naturally come to the stage of earning money and struggle with life. Before that day comes, all we should do is to enjoy the free time. Missing thehappychildhood time will be a great pity.

最近，新闻报道来了一位自俄罗斯的女孩在工作的时候过世了。当我看到这个新闻时，我很震惊，因为她跟我是一样的年龄，但她多年前就已经开始了模特的职业生涯。她死于过度劳累。真的很遗憾。青少年就应该享受他的童年，她应该去上学，和她的朋友一起玩耍。等我们长大后，自然会来到挣钱的阶段，为生活而奋斗。在那一天到来之前，我们应该做的就是享受自由的时光。失去快乐的童年是一大遗憾。

The word childhood, familiar and unfamiliar, it is like a melodious song, reverberate in peoples mind. Childhood invited far and cordial, hazy and clear. As time goes by, I gradually grew up. When no longer six. When is already know, childhood has become the past. Its like the balloon of my hands, dont be blown away, floating in the sky, away from me... .

Summer sky of memories, that adorned among them like stars shining is sad or happy memories in childhood. They lay quietly in the night sky of childhood, or shine or dark, with their beauty. A little boy, he will hang on for a piece of candy from the adults in the hands of wrappers; Because his mother learned to write beautiful words praise and rejoice; Because their those who cannot implement the idea of a "strange" frustrated... Recall our formerly done, corners of the mouth will still leave a smile.

Now of I, already know should earnestly study, no longer a day to night will know that naughty; Already know to help parents do something within, no longer so lazy; Already know should be aged respected, not everything in the self-centered. The girl has grown up in the old days...

The past memories and obsolete already now, but the sincere and goodness, but in my memory forever. Time can be weathered rock, but they could not break the penetration in the water droplets and left footprints on it. Childhood. Although it is like the light gradually out of the fog, but still left a impression of flowers of memories...

童年，这个词熟悉而又陌生，它像一首悠扬的老歌，回荡在人们的记忆深处。童年邀远而又亲切，朦胧而又清晰。随着时间的推移，我渐渐长大。当不再过六.一的时候，就已经清楚的知道，童年成为了过往。它就像我手中的氢气球，不小心被风吹走，在天空中飘荡，离我渐行渐远...... ——题记

盛夏记忆中的星空，那点缀其中犹如星星般闪亮的就是童年中悲伤或欢喜的记忆。它们静静地躺在童年的夜空中，或闪耀或暗淡，散发着它们的美丽。小的时候，自己会因为大人给的一块糖果而紧紧握住手中的糖纸;会因为自己学会写出漂亮的字被母亲夸奖而欣喜;会因为自己那些“奇怪”的想法而不能实现气急败坏.......回想起自己种种从前做过的事情，嘴角仍会留下一抹微笑。

现在的我，已经知道应该认真学习，不再一天到晚就知道贪玩;已经知道帮助父母做些力所能及的事情，不再那么懒惰了;已经知道应该尊老爱幼，不再每一件事都在以自我为中心了。那个在旧时光中的小女孩已经长大了......

现在往事和回忆已经成为过眼云烟，但那真挚和美好，却永远留在我的记忆中。时间能够风化岩石，却不能击碎那渗透在其中的水滴和遗留在上面的足迹。童年亦如此。虽然它像那淡淡的雾气渐渐远去，但还是留下了沁人花香般的回忆......

导语：现如今我们都长大了，回忆起童年都会觉得那是一段美好的时光，下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的相关优秀英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

I think childhood is the happiest period in life， because there are few troubles and worries at that time. The only thing we worry about is our study. Therefore， it’s a time for fun and enjoyment. In my memory， my childhood was colorful and interesting. I was born in the countryside， and I didn’t have many toys， just like other kids in my hometown. But as a creative group， we could always make a lot of toys by ourselves， which need no money at all. We could get all materials around. Toy-making process is of course very interesting. Sometimes， we might quarrel with other kids because of different ideas， but we would get on well soon. Of course， I was to blame by my parents due to my naughtiness. Sometimes they even banned me out. However， when I remember those things now， I often feel happy rather than sad or angry. I will always cherish my childhood in my mind.

我认为童年是人生中最幸福的阶段，因为那个时候没有太多的烦恼和忧愁。我们唯一需要担心的是学习，因此，那是玩耍和享受的时光。在我的记忆中，我的童年是充满色彩和乐趣的。我出生在农村，和家乡的其他小孩一样我没有很多的玩具。但是我们是一个有创造力的队伍，我们经常自己做很多的玩具，一点也不需要花钱。我们能够从身边找到很多材料。制作玩具的过程当然是很有趣的。有时候，我们也会由于想法不同而与其他小孩争吵，但是我们很快就和好了。当然，我也因为淘气被我父母责备。有时候，他们甚至不给我出去。但是，当我现在回想起那些事的时候，我总是觉得很快乐而不是伤心或者生气。我会一直珍惜并牢记我的童年。

I grew up in a small village. I am the second child of the family, and my sister is the eldest. Our house is on the main street of the village so I always saw a lot of people on the streets There were farmers, fishermen, and a few merchants in the village. My sister and I used to play with the next-door children; their father is an elementary school teacher. Sometimes when we played together in the house we made so much noise that my mother wanted us to play outside, so we went to the seashore to look for crabs and clams, and pretty seashells, too. Also, we enjoyed running on the beach chasing each other. On breezy days we used to enjoy flying kites on the beach. When I look back on my early life in the village, I feel I had a happy childhood.

我在一个小村庄里长大。我的第二个孩子的家庭，和我的姐姐是老大。我们的房子是在村里的大街，所以我总是看到很多人在街上有农民，渔民，和村里几个商人。我的妹妹和我经常玩邻家的孩子;他们的父亲是小学教师。有时，当我们发挥我们在房子里做了这么多的噪音，我的母亲希望我们在外面玩，所以我们去海边寻找螃蟹和蛤蜊，和美丽的贝壳，太。同时，我们喜欢跑在沙滩上互相追逐。在起风的日子里，我们喜欢在海滩上放风筝。当我回头看我的早期生活在村里，我觉得我有一个快乐的童年。

Last sunday. I and my father, mother, grandparents, brother went to changbaishan by bus. In the morning we came down the mountain. I saw wooded mountains, wild flowers bloom. We climb up the hill along the mountain path. Come halfway up the mountain, I feel a little tired，it began to rain,My West Lake silk umbrella missed,. Dad said to me,“zhaixiaowei， don’t do anything halfway.”at last，So I insisted reached the top, the top of the scenery so beautiful.We were flying kites, I was thirsty, my mother bought me a bottle of water, .finally we went home.finally，Since then, Ive kept the umbrella。i was very happy。

I am eighteen years old now, but the recollection of the fun and amusement is like a sweet dream.One Sunday, our family went to climb the beautiful Shushan Hill .My father told my elder sister and me that the first one to get to the top would be given a toy. We jumped with joy. We started to run up. At first I took the lead. A few minutes later I was breathleand my sister was ahead of me. The soft masses of the waving grass, and the drowsy, balmy air all sent their warm invitation for me to rest. But I followed my thirst for the toy and continued climbing. At last I reached the top first.

There we enjoyed the fascinating view and had a picnic. At about two oclock we danced our way down the hill with joy in our hearts, and I felt happier than the others because I got a toytrain.

I always dream about returning to the past. As many people say, childhood

is the happiest and easiest time in one’s life. Children show you their true

emotions.

They know what is compassion and what is tolerance better than adults.

In their world, all real thoughts are presented.

They may easily have different opinions with others, but they never

understand what is animosity.

They enjoy making friends but they never think about making social

communication net. Every child talks from the bottom of his heart without evil

plans hidden and never intrigues against each other.

Only in children’s way can adults make our life simple, more real and more

enjoyable.

I wish everyone’s heart would keep as innocent and lovely as they ever did

in their childhood. Then, the walls between our hearts can be broken down and

the world would be a better place to live in.

After reading this book I was shocked and moved by the little boy in the story. The writer let me feel the braveness and kindness in the book.

First, I want to introduce the writer to you. The writer is Maksim Gorky (18681936) He is the former Soviet Union proletarian writer, the founder of socialist realism literature. He was poor, his father died when he was 11-year-old .He and working people shared their fate, and personal experience of capitalist. Gorky is not only a great writer, but also an outstanding community activist. He had set up the Soviet Writers Association, and presided over a congress of the Soviet Union .Gorkys works began to be introduced to China since 1907. His outstanding literary works and books bands in the world-off Class common wealth.

There are four main characters in the story. They are Alexis, his mother Varia, his grandfather and his grandmother. They are totally different.

His mother is a poor but kind woman. Her little son died when he was born. Her husband was died too. Then she married with another man ,but the man always maltreats her.

His grandmother was also a kind woman. She brought up Alexis and gave courage and kindness to Alexis. But unfortunately, his husband always hit her and she died because of illness at last.

His grandfather was a stingy and fierce man. He always maltreats his wife and Alexis. He just loved his money.

The protagonist of this novel was a boy named Alexis. His father died when he was only 3 years old. He followed his mother and came to her motherhome. His grandfather is a violent man. His two uncles are also selfish. His grandfather often hit his wife and his grandson. Little Alexis was maltreated in the family and grew up gradually. However, his grandmother is a kind woman. She is the warm sun of Alexis, she tried her best to protect Alexis. His two uncles wants to get his fathermoney and always fight with their father. The old couple were very disappointed with their son. Finally, the old man decided to separate with them. He sold the old house and bought another home in the city. At that time , his mother came home and married with another man and had a little boy. His stepfather often maltreats his wife and disappeared some days later. He grandfather wanted to earn more money and sold the house. He lent the money to others in order to get more interest and rented a small room to live. He got more and more stingy and did not give any money to his wife. Alexis and his grandmother have to make money by themselves. After some days, his mother got ill and his grandmother was also unhealthy. Unfortunately, his mother died at last. He lost his dear mother. His grandfather did not want to bring him up and let him get out of the home to live in the society by himself. Then he left the home, it also means that his childhood was over.

Personal understanding:

After reading this novel, I can not calm down for a long time. He was so young and lives in such a cold family. He almost never gets the love form his parents. In fact ,the writer wanted to express himself through Alexis. Alexis was like himself. Gorky expressed his childhood through Alexis. This book makes me realize these ugly people at that time. If we with compare our childhood with Gorkys, we would think his childhood is too pathetic.

I want to express my feeling to Alexis. He was young and he did not receive good education. He lived with the fights and quarrels of his families. He was unlucky but he still knew how to be a good person. We are so lucky to live in a warm family. But most of us are not satisfied with it and we want more. We do not know how to cherish the things we have. We often ask for everything from our parents and depend them too much. If someone bully us outside, our parents will encourage us, but for Alexis, nobody will help him and his grandfather even maltreats him. What a poor boy he is. Now, we should realize that we should depend on ourselves and cherish our families. Facing the difficulties by ourselves and try to be confident to life. There must be something that make us despairing, however we should learn form the author and look for the happiness from the pain and look for the hope from the despair. Try to be a kind and optimistic person, never lose confidence. Our future will be bright.

The next aspect in the novel is the old man, the grandfather of Alexis. What a selfish man he is. Alexis was his grandson, he did not care about him but maltreat him. His wife born three children for him but he did not love her at all. He just love his money. His character represented many people at that time. And the author wanted to satirize these people by this character. He was an important character in this novel and an important person for Alexis. But he did not be responsible for Alexis. Alexis was so unlucky to have such a bad grandfather. And his grandmother was so unlucky to have such a violent husband.
