中秋节英语作文（汇编20篇）

今天，我以一个志愿者的身份来到了乡下，到了陈爷爷家。

陈爷爷家房子不大，走进门，映入眼前的却是，阴暗狭窄的大堂，我敲了敲门，礼貌地问了一句：“陈爷爷在家吗?”

一个房间里走出来一位老奶奶,她热情地招待我，问我：“小朋友，你是谁，是来干什么的?”“我是志愿者，来帮助陈爷爷的。”“哦，陈爷爷在那个小房间里呢!”说着，她便向一个小房间指去。

我向奶奶指的地方走去，看见的却是在厨房忙东忙西的陈爷爷，我叫了一声：“陈爷爷。”陈爷爷回过头笑咪咪到看了我一眼，我发现陈爷爷既是一个残疾人，真是不可思议，赶紧走上前说：“陈爷爷，你歇会吧!我来帮你吧!”“小朋友你真懂事，谢谢，不过我的身子还硬朗的很。”看着，我真为陈爷爷心痛。

我趁陈爷爷在厨房里，我拿起拖把、扫把、撮箕，开始打扫卫生，爷爷看见直夸我棒。

我从这次志愿者活动中感受到了，人不管贫穷富贵，不管健康，还是残疾，只要帮助别人，自己会快乐，别人也会快乐。帮助别人就在一念之间，说起来容易，做起来有点难，要有帮助别人的勇气和力量,要有坚韧不拔的毅力，持之以恒的决心，才能真正做好一个合格的志愿者!

Today, I came to the countryside as a volunteer and went to Grandpa Chens

house.

Grandpa Chens house is not big. When I walked in the door, I saw a dark

and narrow lobby. I knocked on the door and asked politely, "Is Grandpa Chen at

home?"

An old grandmother came out of a room. She greeted me warmly and asked me:

"Little boy, who are you and what are you doing here?" "I am a volunteer to help

Grandpa Chen." "Oh, Grandpa Chen is here. In that small room!" As she spoke, she

pointed to a small room.

I walked to the place where my grandmother pointed, but what I saw was

Grandpa Chen busy in the kitchen, I called out, "Grandpa Chen." Grandpa Chen

turned around and smiled and glanced at me, I found Grandpa Chen As a disabled

person, it was incredible, so he quickly stepped forward and said, "Grandpa

Chen, take a break! Ill help you!" "Youre so sensible, my little one, thank

you, but my body is still very strong." , I am really heartbroken for Grandpa

Chen.

When Grandpa Chen was in the kitchen, I picked up the mop, broom, and

dustpan and started cleaning. Grandpa saw that I was great.

I have felt from this volunteer activity that no matter whether people are

poor or rich, healthy or disabled, as long as they help others, they will be

happy and others will be happy too. Helping others is just a thought. Its

easier said than done. It takes courage and strength to help others,

perseverance and perseverance to be a truly qualified volunteer!

The way people hold the belief that a fun-filled， pain-free lifestyle

equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever obtaining real

happiness. If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness，then pain must be equal to

unhappiness. But in fact，the opposite is true： more often than not things that

lead to happiness contain some pain.

As a result，many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true

happiness.They fear the pain inevitably (不可避免地) brought by such things as

marriage，raising children，professional achievement， religious commitment，

self-improvement.

Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be

less and less satisfying. If he is honest，he will tell you that he is afraid of

making a commitment，for commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is

filled with fun， adventure and excitement.Marriage has such moments，but they are

not its most distinguishing features.

Couples，with infant children， are lucky to get a whole nights sleep of a

three-day vacation. We dont know any parent who would choose the word fun to

describe raising children. But couples that decide not to have children ever

know the joys of watching a child grow up or playing with a grandchild.

Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun

is one of the most liberating realizations. It liberates time： now we can devote

more hours to activities that can really increase our happiness. It liberates

money：buying that new car or those fancy clothes to increase our happiness now

seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy：we now understand that all those

who always have so much fun actually may not be happy at all.

The Mid-Autumn or Moon Festival is one rich in poetic(诗意的) significance. Ancient legends(古代的传说) that became interwoven with this festival‘s celebration further contribute to the warm regard in which it has always been held by the Chinese people. According to the lunar calendar(农历)， the seventh， eighth， and ninth months constitute the autumn season. Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month， precisely in the middle of this season， when the heat of the summer has given way to cool autumn weather， marked by blue skies and gentle breezes. On this day the moon is at its greatest distance from the earth; at no other time is it so luminous. Then， as the Chinese say， “The moon is perfectly round.” In the villages the heavy work involved in the summer harvest has already been completed but the autumn harvest has not yet arrived.

The actual origins of the Mid-Autumn Festival are still very unclear. The earliest records are from the time of the great Han dynasty emperor Wu Di， who initiated celebrations lasting three days， including banquets and “Viewing the Moon” evenings on the Toad Terrace. We know that people during the Jin dynasty (265-420 A.D.) continued the custom of Mid-Autumn Festival celebrations， and similar accounts have come down to us from the time of the Tang dynasty. During the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) houses and gardens were decorated with numerous lanterns and the sound of gongs and drums filled the air.

我们每年中秋节都过得很平淡，可是今年的中秋节却不一样，因为我们龙港乡在河里面放了两条用钢铁和彩布构造成的长55米的龙。

到了中秋节的晚上，我们一家人吃个晚饭，然后我对爸爸妈妈说：我们大家一起去看用两条用钢|||铁和彩布做成的大龙。

我们沿着公路一直走到河岸边，有管理人员在出口和入口把守着，我们按顺序从入口进去。哇，好多人啊，河岸的旁边都张灯结彩。我们沿着河岸的路走了进去。啊！我们先看到了一个用钢铁够造成的大塔，看见左边放着做戏的仙姬送子的景色；右边放着制作茶叶的景色，我就用手机把景色拍里下来。

接下来，我们慢慢地走到放着两条栩栩如生的大龙那里，只听见，音乐一响，两条大龙就亮了起来，哇，好漂亮啊！桥中间还放了一只大花球，两条大龙随着音乐摇头喷出水来，一条龙喷向左边；另一条就喷向右边，好像双龙戏水。我连忙用手机把这个难得一见的景色拍了下来。

The Mid-Autumn Festival

The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th of the eighth month of our Chinese lunar calendar. As one of the traditional Chinese festivals, it has been enjoying great popularity in our country. Usually, no matter how far away or how busy we are, we will try to come home for the celebration. The moon that night looks the brightest in the whole lunar month. What we love most is the time we enjoy the full moon together. With the beautiful moon up in the sky, we sit together and eat moon cakes and fruit, sharing our stories. In addition to these traditional activities, we have a wider range of choices such as travelling and visiting our relatives or friends.

中秋节是在8月15号我们的中国农历。作为中国传统节日之一,它在我国一直享受大受欢迎。通常,无论有多远,我们有多忙,我们将努力回家庆祝。那天晚上月亮看起来最亮整个农历。我们最喜欢的是我们一起享受满月的日子。天空中美丽的月亮了,我们坐在一起吃月饼和水果,分享我们的故事。除了这些传统活动,我们有更广泛的选择,比如旅行和访问我们的亲戚或朋友。

中秋佳节月儿圆

一说到秋天，我就想到了那中秋佳节，或许是那香甜的月饼，又或许是中秋节来历的美丽，或是那天上的一轮圆月，更或者，是中秋团圆的美好。

中秋团圆夜，美在那漆黑的夜空中，一轮明月映照天中，有可能是月饼一个个圆而香甜，使原本秋风瑟瑟的夜晚，变得格外的温馨。天公不作美，今年的中秋下着绵绵的细雨，月亮害羞似的躲在云层当中，只露出一个朦胧清冷的轮廓。我嚼着嘴中的月饼，有些食不知味，中秋佳节怎么能没有赏月这一环节。

姐姐捧着手上的月饼，跟我一起坐在阳台的椅子上，仰头望着天空，望了一会儿后，姐姐扭过头：“想听故事吗?”我正愁没有月可赏，急忙点点头，坐正了身子。

“中秋节有拜月这一习俗，只不过现在不太重视了。相传古时齐国的丑女无盐，幼年虔诚拜月，长大后入宫，却一直是寻寻常常，无过人之处。某年八月十五赏月，天子在月光下看见她，觉得她美丽出众，便立她为王后。中秋拜月的习俗由此而来，月中的嫦娥，以美貌著称，故少女拜月，有”貌如嫦娥，面似皓月“这一寓意呢。”

我仰头看向月亮 。

“举杯邀明月，对影成三人”千百年来，你总是世人所咏赞的对象，你似乎注定成为孤独寂寞人的精神依靠，是落寞无助人的听诉者，仿佛人们已将世上所有的情感已寄你于一身。难道，你那阴情圆缺的变化，就是对人间人情冷暖，世事沧桑的感慨?

“海上生明月，天涯共此时。”千千万万的人此时都饱含着离别之苦，只有抬头仰望天上的你，享受着月光浴，才能感受到自己牵挂的人与自己心心相印，不离不弃。是你，让寂寞的心不再无依无靠，让愁苦的思绪不再四处漂泊。

我的心沉浸在这月的美丽中。这月的美，不是太阳的豪放，她是温和的，端庄的，高雅的。如同天空中镶嵌着的一颗硕大的明珠，光泽艳丽，闪闪发光;她如同一块无与伦比而又价值连城的玉盘，纯洁高雅，讨人喜爱。

夜，渐渐的凉了下来，我回身走进了房间，披上了一件外套，等我出来，月亮不知什么时候从那云层中探出了个头，向大地洒下清冷而又柔和的月光。我沐浴在这如丝绸般的月光中，心中一片祥和。

夜深了，温柔的月光洒满大地，一切都像披上了层银纱。房屋、树木都睡了，它们像睡在无比宽大的“摇篮”里。我也睡觉了，圆圆的月亮伴着我进入了圆圆的梦。

“但愿人长久，千里共婵娟”自古以来，天空中那轮皎洁的月亮，披着一层神秘的面纱，被诗人吟诵，被人们拜舞，人们一直对月亮充满敬畏与幻想，认为月亮是团圆的象征。

明月中秋全家聚，月下私语乐融融。中秋是吃月饼的时候，至于中秋吃月饼，是因为一个爱国的传说。元朝时期，君主怕子民造反，下令十家合用一把菜刀，这十家还要供养一位蒙古奴隶主的爪牙，这些爪牙胡作非为，横行霸道，人民叫苦连天，死的死，亡的亡，一位正义的大臣看不下去了，就在中秋月下，写了许多“爱国正义，推翻王朝，一起连手，还我河山”的字条，夹在月饼里，把月饼分送到人家，吃月饼时，看到字条，互相传送，人们有了联络的信号，一起造反，推翻了腐败的元朝。从此，中秋送月饼，吃月饼的习俗流传到今，经久不衰。

中秋佳节，全家团圆，儿子儿媳都要回家与父母团聚，除了万不得已，必须回家。全家一起吃月饼，代表以后的日子家道兴旺，吉祥如意。

也许一年之中，除春节外，中秋是唯一一个团圆的日子，有奔波在外的人，心中早被功利、名誉、金钱占据，连这个日子也忘了，也许有浪迹天涯的游子真的不能回家，但对于他们来说，这样，“孝”就成了刻骨的伤痛，该是多么大的遗憾呀!我相信，许多人在父母面前许下“孝”的宏愿，满怀憧憬的走了，他们相信自己有衣锦还乡的一天，有尽孝的一日，但他们忘了，忘了时间的残酷，忘了生命本身的不堪一击，忘了“孝”字会一瞬间成为泡影。父母不需要我们长跪不起，不需要我们忏悔自己的无知，也许多陪父母一会儿，父母就知足，也许一杯热茶，父母便宽心。生命的短暂，有几时能尽孝?借中秋佳节，回家探亲，尽微薄的孝心，如果此时都不团聚，那么何时能弥补?那是多么大的遗憾呀!在葡萄架下赏月，中秋这天的月亮特别圆，圆的毫无缺憾，圆的动人心扉，一轮金黄的月亮嵌在乌蓝的夜空中，更显得明亮，众星捧月，圆圆的月亮好像一家人，团团圆圆，我想，中秋团圆就是由此而来。

中伙吃饭时，没有赶到家的人，必须要留出一个空位，放上他的衣服，以表对他的思念。李白曾诗云：举头望明月，低头思故乡。有时，我们在这里过中秋，爸爸总是喜欢望着明月背这名诗，没有与家人团聚，没有共同赏月，且身在异乡，只得给遥遥那方土地打个电话，听听家人的声音，这种刻骨铭心的酸楚，爸爸体会的更深。爸爸说，他上学时，中秋不能回家，他与别的同学在一起看月亮，想起摆着衣服的空位，总有种想哭的冲动，打个电话，这边爸爸泪如海涌，妈，我要回家!晚上静静的躲在被窝，感到冷到骨子里，一种莫名的害怕。爸爸说，中秋是个团圆的日子，一个人不回家就感觉心里空落落的。

现在，只要我们中秋回家，奶奶脸上那种惊讶的幸福我永远忘不下。

明月皎皎，寄托着我们的思念，辽辽中秋，团聚着我们的幸福，明月中秋能几何?家人团聚知多少?这个团圆的日子，这个幸福的时刻，我们欢聚一堂。

一年一度的中秋节又到了，吃团圆饭、吃月饼和赏月样样少不了，其中让我最印象深刻的那就是——赏月了。

吃完团圆饭，我们一家人来到了门外。我仰望天空，只见一轮圆月慢慢从去中探出了脑袋，真像是一位害羞的小姑娘，然后圆月又渐渐升向了天空，它是那么的皎洁，那么的明亮，宛如是一个大银盘。它给大地的每一样东西都铸了一件银灰色的纱裙，树叶、房屋、大街小巷……都像镀了一层水银。月光也洒在了万物身上，洒在了鲜花上就像给花儿化了个妆，让它显得更加美丽，月光照到了床前，床前就好似覆盖了一层霜，不禁使我想起了唐朝大诗人李白的诗：“床前明月光，疑是地上霜。”

我躺在凳上又抬头望起了月亮，望着高悬天际的月亮，我却觉得它是那么近，那么近，仿佛触手可及。正当这时，我仿佛受到了月亮的邀请来到了天空上，和星星为伴云儿为友，我们一起在天空中唱着歌跳着舞开心得不亦乐乎。

夜色已深，但皎洁明亮的月亮却仍挂在天边。啊!这美妙的月色……

“好时节，愿得年年，常见中秋月。”期待已久的中秋节已到。

在农历八月十五这个月圆之夜，我们一家人吃完团圆饭，妈妈就到院子里把桌子摆好，各种文具、水果都跑到了桌子上。我好奇地问妈妈：“为什么要把这些东西摆到桌子上呢?”妈妈笑眯眯地回答我：“拜这些东西才能让你更聪明，学习进步!”我恍然大悟。

我们在月亮下面喝茶、赏月、放爆竹，这时候，妈妈拿出了中秋节我最喜欢吃的东西——月饼，月饼有各种各样的味道，有黑豆沙，有绿豆，有红豆，我的口水已经流到了桌子上。我最喜欢的就是黑豆沙的，你们知道为什么吗?因为黑豆沙又香又甜，可好吃了!

中秋节总是让人感到高兴，我非常喜欢中秋节!

Panda is our country’s treasure, we should protect it. nowadays, we see

from the TV that panda is less than before, it is not only because of the damage

of the environment, but also the weakness of the panda. Everybody loves panda,

it is so lovely, a panda has two black eyes, it is very lazy, it likes sleeping

all the time. When we see its round body shape, we can’t help loving them. In

order to see the lovely animal, we need to protect them. We must protect the

environment, like not to throw the rubbish away, not to cut down the trees. We

condemn such behavior that killing the animals. Protecting the animals is

everybody’s job.

The Dragon Boat Festival is one of the most popular traditional festivals

celebrated in China, which is on the fifth of the fifth lunar month, also known

as Duanwu Festival. It’s said that it is to commemorate the death of a Chinese

patriotic poet, Qu Yuan, who was snared by corrupt officials in ancient China

and finally committed suicide by drowning himself in the Miluo River to protest

against them.

The traditions and customs held on this festival differ from place to

place, but there are some common in them. First, the most famous and great

tradition is holding Dragon Boat races, which are held by fishermen’s attempt to

protect Qu Yuan’s body against attacking by fishes and other animals in the

river by beating drums and row the dragon shaped boat. Nowadays dragon boat

races have been an annual popular sport activity among people. In addition,

making and eating Zongzi—a dumpling made of glutinous rice and wrapped in bamboo

or reed leaves—is also a popular custom during this day. It can be made by many

kinds of stuffing. What’s more, hanging herbs on the front door, drinking

realgar wine and pasting up picture of Zhongkui—a mythic guardian figure in

ancient china—are also popular during the festival, which are mean to protect

people from evil and disease.

These customs and traditions have been changed a little in recent years,

but they still make contribution to the spread and inheritance of Chinese

culture.

晚上，非常安静。满月像一个玉盘穿过云层，淡淡的月光洒在地上。每到中秋节晚上，孩子们都会提着灯笼，快乐地在街上跑来跑去。

我们也不例外，拿着灯笼和蜡烛去屋顶。在屋顶上，明亮的月亮照在孩子们快乐的脸上，看起来非常可爱。我们坐在长凳上，享受着美丽的月光和美味的月饼。我们非常开心。这时，一个小女孩走过来，坐在长凳上，记录下这快乐的时刻。柔和的月光照在小女孩安静的脸上，看起来非常美丽。正当我们高兴的时候，微风吹灭了蜡烛。孩子们不得不重新点燃蜡烛。

夜幕渐渐降临，人们的笑声打破了夜晚的寂静。天空中星星调皮地眨着眼睛。月亮睁大了眼睛，慈祥地看着绿草，很像一个磨光的银盘子。啊，多么美丽的景色，多么像一位母亲在给她的孩子们讲故事，他们正在听上帝的话。

月亮渐渐升起，她穿着白色的薄纱连衣裙，安静安详，温柔大方。她银白色的脸，透过树梢，留下了温柔的微笑。中秋节的夜晚是多么美丽，给我的童年留下了深刻的印象。

Yesterday afternoon, when I was sitting in the classroom and listening to

the teacher. Suddenly, the screen seemed moving and it started to shake. My

teacher stopped his class and then he asked us to calm down. He let the students

who were close to the door left first, and then the rest of us ran out of the

classroom one by one. After a while, everything seemed to be normal, the teacher

asked us to go back to the classroom. Later I learned that there indeed came the

earthquake. I admired our teacher so much, in the important moment, he did not

run away, but considered us in the first place. He is a good teacher.

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.

Recently,haze weather has become a daily one right here in large part of

China.People are forced to wear the mask to avoid breathing poisonous air.So it

is necessary to find out the reason why leads to that and work out the

resolution.If we trace the cause for haze weather ,the main points are as

follows ,first,china s air quality standards are rather lax and evaluation

factors are limited,so you will see that current air appraisal system has

defects.Second,some people just go for economic interests instead of turning out

products according to relevant law and regulations.They tend to use obsolete

equipment in which they are high likely to emit a great deal of wasted air.

Third,across our society ,relevant protection awareness has not built up so

that people havent formed a habit of using green product and saving energy as

much as possible.Just for the sake of convience to go out,people rely more and

more on travelling and working by car while car is the main cause for the haze

weather

To settle this problem,a series of meaures should be taken as follows.First

,we should strengthen air monitor to lower the levels of small particulate

pollutants.Second,we should enact more strict laws and regulations and keep

perfecting our current law on environmental protection to regulate people s

daily action and the industrial production and punish those factories that

ignore the protection and keep emitting dangerous material that cause haze.

Third,we should develop green and energy-saving energy to lower the

emission of haze and improve air quality.As far as i am concerned ,if we work

together to be able to do such measures ,our environment will getting better and

better and haze weather will vanish completely.

When it comes to November 11, what’s on your mind? Well, as to the old

generations, it’s only an ordinary day; however, the young generations will

consider it as the Singles’ Day as well as the on-line shopping carnival. In

fact, on November 11th, 2013, Tmall and Taobao (the biggest Chinese online

shopping platform) has sold out more than 35 billion Yuan goods, this data has

astonished the media at home and abroad. Apparently, people have more interests

on cyber shopping than spend the night with their single friends. Some home

media even suggest that November 11th should be the Chinese on-line shopping

carnival.

In 2010, Jack Ma, the CEO of Tmall and Taobao, had coined the term “Double

Eleven”, aimed to encourage the single people to do something to celebrate their

own festival. Instead of dating lovers, people go on-line shopping to relive the

loneliness. According to the survey, China had 564 million Internet users at the

end of last year and 180 million single people. And the single people are the

main force of the China’s spending power. The debut was a great success. Then

“11.11” has an unusual meaning, which stands for on-line shopping carnival.

Comparing with the traditional shopping, the cyber shopping has more

distinguish features, which quite fit the young generations’ taste. People do

not need to go outside, just click their mouse, the goods will be home. The best

part is you can do it anywhere, anytime. All you need is a credit card. What we

can predict in the future is that on-line shopping is not going to fade away,

instead, it will boost like the mushrooms after spring rains.

As a student, I expect the winter holiday very much, because I don’t have

to go to school every day. So I can sleep and get up late. But this winter

holiday, I am not very happy. I didn’t do well in the final exam. It makes my

parents disappointed. I feel sorry to them. Besides, I got ill the whole winter

holiday. I caught a cold at first and then had a fever. I had to see a doctor

every day. My parents worried much about me. Because of the illness, I didn’t

have a good time during the New Year. Now, I am a little better. I hope I could

be well soon, because the new term is beginning. I don’t want to go to school

with illness.

今天中秋佳节，我们在外婆家吃晚饭。听爸爸说，八月十五日的月亮最圆，我与表弟本准备晚饭后去看月亮，但是天上却下起了毛毛细雨，压根看不见月亮。

晚饭后，外婆取出了月饼给大家吃。大家吃着又香又甜的月饼，简直美味无比。吃完了月饼，表弟又找到大家原先喜爱玩的俩把玩具枪，原先每一次去外婆家，表弟都需要和我玩打仗的游戏，大家每个人手上一把枪，可是枪里不可以上炮弹，由于有炮弹会一不小心致伤。大家一会儿在大客厅，一会儿在饭厅，一会儿在屋子，我追着你玩，你追着我玩，成年人总叫大家慢下来大家都不愿意。表弟没我跑的快，玩输掉就不开心，我也有意跑慢一点使他捉到，他就高兴地 说"我嬴了!"

我们玩到十点钟才回家了，尽管中秋佳节没有见到月亮，但仍然是个高兴的中秋佳节。

中秋节到了，我开心得又蹦又跳，因为又可以吃到甜甜的小月饼了。

为什么叫中秋节呢?我先来介绍一下中秋节的由来：中秋节又称月夕、秋节、仲秋节、八月节、八月会节、追月节、玩月节、拜月节、女儿节或团圆节，是流行于中国众多民族与汉字文化圈诸国的传统文化节日。

我同妹妹一同来到奶奶家。刚一进门，就看见桌子上已经放满了香喷喷的食物，有香芋饼、炸鸡腿、水果沙拉、饺子……馋得我直流口水。我们全家人围坐在餐桌前开心地吃了起来，吃得我的肚子圆滚滚的。

吃过晚饭后，我俩跑到阳台前，一边看着窗外圆圆的月亮，一边吃着豆沙味的月饼。这时，爷爷抱来了一个又大又圆的西瓜，他把西瓜切了几刀，西瓜就变成了一个好看的花篮，原来这个花篮是给月亮的。看着阳台上摆放着各式各样的水果与月饼，我想起“举头望明月，低头思故乡”。每逢佳节，有多少人望着月亮来思念亲人?我喜欢这皎洁而宁静的夜晚，更喜欢中秋节的天伦之乐。

My grandparents believed you were either honest or you werent. There was

no in between. They had a simple motto hanging on their living-room wall: "Life

is like a field of newly fallen snow; where I choose to walk every step will

show. "They didnt have to talk about it--they demonstratedthe motto by the way

they lived. They understood instinctively that integrity means having a personal

standard of morality and ethics that does not sell out to expediency and that is

not relative to the situation at hand. Integrity is an inner standard for

judging your behavior.Unfortunately, integrity is in short supply today--and

getting scarcer. But it is the real bottom line in every area of society.And it

is something we must demand of ourselves.

A good test for this value is to look at what I call the Integrity Trial,

which consists of three key principles: Stand firmly for your convictions in the

face of personal pressure.

When you know youre right, you cant back down. Always give others credit

that is rightfully theirs. Dont be afraid of those who might have a better idea

or who might even be smarter than you are. Be honest and open about who you

really are. People who lack genuine core values rely on external factors--their

looks or status---in order to feel good about themselves. Inevitably they will

do everything they can to preserve this facade,but they will do very little to

develop their inner value and personal growth.

So be yourself. Dont engage in a personal cover-up of areas that are

unpleasing in your life. When its tough, do it tough. In other words, face

reality and be adult in your responses to lifes challenges.

Self-respect and a clear conscience are powerful components of integrity

and are the basis for enriching your relationships with others.

Integrity means you do what you do because its right and not just

fashionable or politically correct. A life of principle, of not succumbing to

the seductive sirens of an easy morality,will always win the day. My

grandparents taught me that.

中秋那天，正是夜幕降临，摆上桌子椅子，坐在月光下，赏着月亮，吃着月饼。真是舒服!

过了一会儿，我就有点不耐烦了。便帮起妈妈做起了团圆饭，做着做着，妈妈便说：“吴昊，你怎么不举行一个比赛呢?”“对呀!”我一拍头，举行什么呢?我望了一下那美味可口的月饼，便跑出去，对大家说：“我们举行吃月饼大赛。”“好!”

比赛开始了，我端来几盒月饼，摆放在每个人的面前。

我当裁判，我一声令下：“预备——吃!”

大家都开始狼吞虎咽地吃了起来。爸爸张开大口，一口一个。吃到第二个的时候，噎住了。我赶紧递上一杯水。爸爸喝水后，继续战斗。

别看爷爷年纪大了，可是吃月饼一点也不逊色。奶奶怕噎着，就轻轻一小口的咬，可是嘴上沾满了月饼屑儿。大舅一看，不小心把刚吃的月饼吐了出来。

要是你在场，你一定会捧腹大笑的。
