[初中英语作文：愉快的暑期生活

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.

我们的寒假放假时间是从一月十六号截至到二月七日。我想每个人在这期间，都会去做很多的事。但是我没有这样。下面就让我来给大家讲讲我的寒假发生的事吧。

我花了很长的时间来做作业…，在寒假这段时间里，我每天起的都很晚。然后呢，我听录音机(tape),转眼到九点了。之后，我吃完早饭再花一整天的时间去做作业!其实我做的并不慢，只是家庭作业布置的太多了!

我在玩耍方面也显得十分倒霉。在我玩爆竹的时候，伤着了我的手指。我手拿着放爆竹的时候，太不小心了，所以显得很是倒霉(杯具变成了餐具现在很流行的一个词，杯具餐具-作文地带)。

在我与朋友聚餐时也相当倒霉。早上，我是想着早点起，可是等我睡醒时已经是10：50.十分钟后，聚会就要开始!于是我只吃了块面包就径直向朋友家跑去!在朋友家呆了很长的时间后，我回到家，我爸爸妈妈很生气并且还大骂我一顿。

我很担心我的体重，上学期，我体重是48KG，但是现在我已经涨到51KG了!我必须减肥了!

I spent this summer vacation in quite a different way. I used to run about every day in previous summer vacations, but this summer vacation I simply could not afford to do so. I would soon be in the last year of my high-school education and would after graduation be up against the college entrance examinations.

Though those examinations were still a year away, I had to start early to make myself well prepared by reviewing all those things I had learned at school and this summer vacation was the ideal time for me to do this.

At first I was rather dismayed at the thought of this, but later I thought it was better this way because by working hard this summer I could count on endless happy summers to come. With this in mind I then set to work like anything and only occasionally went out for a change or did some physical. I was not at all bored by this kind of life, for I was sustained by a hope.

Dear Jack,

Thank you for your letter asking about our discussion onLowcarbon lifestyle. Here is something about it.

We can do a lot in our daily life to achieve the goal of living low carbon life. First, we’d better turn off lights if possible and spend less time watching TV or surfing the Internet. Saving water also matters much. Besides, we should sort out the rubbish, hoping that we might recycle some, which will surely benefit us a great deal. In addition, we suggest using handkerchiefs instead of tissues so that we can prevent more trees from being cut down. More importantly, when we go out, walking, riding bikes or taking buses should be our first choice, which contributes to a cleaner world.

I am going to make a snowman with my sister. Then we are going to visit the Great wall. At last, we are going to go back home by plane.

Today, my brother went to school in Jinan and my father brought me up. Dad wanted me to feel the life of the University. We came to Shandong Normal University, and that was the fathers alma mater. The entrance is very blocked, because today is the date of new arrival, so there are so many vehicles that we cant go in very easily. Once we enter the mountains, we have many big sisters and big brothers, holding the brands of their colleges to welcome the arrival of new students. The first picture was the statue of Chairman Mao. An air of teaching building, a clean lawn. There are tall laboratory buildings, libraries, and hundreds of thousands of books, books, books, books, books, books, books, and books. It is a sea of knowledge. My father said so, I want to go in and see, but dad said that there must be a card to go in to see, but I had to imagine in it.

Every time I go to a place, I will ask my father what it is for. My father introduced me like a tour guide, and I listened carefully. Dad told me that he was in college at that time. I think college life is really meaningful. We came to the dormitory imperceptibly brother, I look dumbfounded, the corridor inside the dark, than I imagined. My father was busy explaining to me that I knew the house was a few decades old, so it was so old. Let me have a bad feeling about college life. I said, "I cant test this school in the future, and the environment is too bad." But I listen to my father that the learning atmosphere of this school is still very strong, everyone can learn. I want to grow up quickly and get into the dream college life earlier.

我的校园生活My Life in University

As we know, many people favor theidea that the college life is free and comfortable, but I’d like to say it’snot true. As a matter of fact, my life in university is so busy that I wonderif my energy is enough. As to my college life, I divide it into four parts,including study, student activities, library and the others.

我们知道，很多人认为大学生活是自由、舒适的，但我想说这不是真的。事实上，我的大学生活是如此的忙碌，以至于我都不知道我的能量是否足够。至于我的大学生活，我把它分为四个部分，包括学习，学生活动，图书馆和其他的。

Firstly, I want to talk about thestudy. In my opinion, study is the priority in college. When I received theletter of admission in summer, I knew clearly that what I should do. So I makeup my mind to study hard and pursue learning as much as possible. I’m greatlyconvinced that knowledge can change my life. Therefore, I often go to the quietstudy room where many people study there. By working so hard, I get good gradesin the exams.

首先，我想谈谈学习。在我看来，学习是大学该优先考虑的。当我在夏天收到录取通知书时，我就清楚地知道我应该做什么。所以我下定决心努力学习，尽可能多的追求学问。我非常相信知识可以改变我的生活。因此，我常常去安静的自习室学习，有很多人在那里学习。通过努力学校，我在考试中取得了好成绩。

Secondly, student activities playan important role in our college life. To be honest, the student Union is agood place where one can develop social skills, get his abilities trained. Itake part in many student activities. For example, I’ m a volunteer, teachingthe kids to learn to dance and write. I think it’s meaningful for everyone togive a hand to others. I can also do some jobs in the Student Union, includingreceiving and sending fast mail, selling papers and magazines. I think they’re unforgettableand worthwhile experiences for me.

其次，在我们的大学生活中学生活动中起了重要的作用。老实说，学生会是一个很好的地方，一个可以培养社会技能的地方，一个训练自己能力的地方。我参加了许多学生活动。例如，我是一个志愿者，教孩子们学习舞蹈和写作。我认为帮助别人是有意义的。我还可以在学生会中做一些工作，包括接收和发送快速电子邮件，卖报纸和杂志。我觉得他们是我难忘的、有价值的经验。

Thirdly, I also visit the libraryconstantly. It’s said that “shelves of books, oceans of knowledge”, so I readbooks that I’m interested in. In this way, I can share stories with my new friendsand it also changes my horizons .When I’m sad, lost or in trouble, staying thelibrary makes me quiet and comfortable. After all, every life has bad momentsas well as good ones, and the library for me is a support in bad moments. So it’s wise choice for me to stay in thelibrary.

第三，我经常去图书馆。据说“书架上的书，知识的海洋，所以我阅读我感兴趣的书。这样，我可以和我的新朋友分享故事，也改变了我的视野。在我难过，迷失或陷入困境的时候，呆在图书馆能让我感到安静和舒适。毕竟，每个人的生活都有不好和好的时候，图书馆对我来说也是心情不好时的一种支撑。所以对我来说呆在图书馆是明智的选择。

Finally, I often do other thingsin my spare time. In order to alleviate parents’ burden, I often do somepart-time jobs and write some articles to earn money. It helps me to beindependent and improve my social skills.

最后，我经常在空余时间做一些其他的事情。为了减轻父母的负担，我经常做一些兼职工作，写一些文章来赚钱。它帮助我变得独立，改善我的社交能力。

In short, mylife in university is busy but valuable. You can see that study brings me knowledge,student activities improve myself, library changes my horizons, the othersthings make me independent. They get all my abilities trained. And I see thatthe chance will come only if you have a prepared mind, so I’m sure that I canachieve my dreams in college life.

总之，我的大学生活是忙碌而有价值的。你可以看到学习带给我知识，学生活动提升我自己，图书馆改变了我的视野，其他的事情让我变得独立。它们让我所有的能力得到训练。我看到机会只会留给有准备的人，所以我相信在大学生活中我能实现我的梦想。

When we are born, we are unblemished. As we grow, we develop many complexities due to many influences in our lives. During childhood, we are repeatedly discouraged, chided, and in some cases, abused. As we grow older, we develop our own version of right and wrong. We create a world of our own.

当我们出生时，我们是纯洁无瑕的。当我们长大了，生活中的很多因素影响着我们，使我们变得复杂。在孩童时，我们常常遭到阻止、指责和责骂。随着年龄增长，我们有了自己的是非观，我们有了我们自己的世界。

Our brain collects and retains all visual, auditory information from the moment we are born and to the smallest of the details. Apart from our brain having memory, cells in our body, in billions, have their own memory. In other words, our body store both physiological and psychological memories. We are complex emotional beings in nature compared to any other living animal.

从出生那刻起，我们的大脑就收集和保存着所有的听到的和看到的信息，以及那些极小的细节。不仅我们的大脑有记忆，我们身体中的数十亿个细胞也有记忆。换句话说，我们的身体既有生理记忆，也有心理记忆。我们天生就比其它生物的情感更为复杂。

Apparently, physical and psychological memories strongly influence our emotions! Interestingly, we can create, store, and release emotion like energy. Moreover, if we do not process our emotions properly and suppressed for long time, they can find a way out violently and unexpectedly.

显然，身体和心理的记忆强烈地影响着我们的情感！有趣地是，我们可以创造、储存情感，还可以像释放能量一样释放情感。然而，若我们不能妥善地处理好我们的情感，长期地压抑着情感，它们可能会猛然迸发出来。

Unfortunately, we carry our guilt throughout our lives effecting ever-increasing burden on our shoulders. We become heavy with guilt and anger for things we could or did not achieve, for things we cannot have, to cite few examples. Evidently, everyone carry his or her own sack of guilt and anger.

不幸的是，我们一辈子带着内疚的情感，使我们的包袱越来越重。比如，对那些我们得到或得不到的东西，对那些我们不能拥有的东西，都充满了内疚与愤怒的情感。显然，每个人都有一麻袋的内疚和愤怒。

One must question our nature of accumulating and carrying our guilt and anger until the end. Both guilt and anger are useless for us. They give us no advantage. Therefore, one may ask: is there a way to put down the sack form our weary shoulders? It is possible, indeed. Importantly, since our guilt and anger inside us neither addressed nor given attention, they are stored. Actually, we should process and address our emotions in order to remove from our system. We cannot just wish them away.

人们必须质疑我们不断积压或产生的内疚与愤怒的本质。内疚和愤怒是没有用的，对我们无任何益处。因此，也许有人会问：有没有方法让我们放下压在我们脆弱肩上的这个包袱？答案是，有的。重点是，我们的内疚和愤怒的情感既没有被释放也没有被重视，而是被储存了。实际上，我们应该处理并释放我们的情感，这样才能把它们从我们自身消除。我们不能只是希望它们消失。

In fact, by acknowledging their presence and providing a channel for them to dissipate, we can dissolve our emotions gradually. Taking drugs, consuming alcohol only aggravates situation. They only provide transient solace. Is there a better way to unload our burden? Luckily, we have natural gift to process our feeling and emotions. Forgiveness stands first of all other natural remedies.

其实，承认它们的存在，并为其提供一个消散的通道，我们才能逐渐化解这些情感。吸毒、饮酒只会使我们的状况变得更遭。这样也只能提供短暂的慰藉。有没有更好的方法来卸下包袱呢？很幸运，我们天生就有处理感受和情感的能力。在所有自然疗法中，原谅排在第一。

Indeed, there is no better way than forgiving ourselves. Notwithstanding, we should learn to readily forgive others. When we learn to forgive ourselves, we also naturally forgive others.

确实没有比原谅自己更好的办法了。尽管如此，我们应学会欣然原谅他人。当我们学会原谅自己，也就自然地会原谅他人了。

In summary, there is no benefit carrying our years of emotional baggage. By forgiving, we can throw away the emotional baggage we carry for years, if not decades. Forgive your past mistakes. The moment you start forgiving, you feel lot lighter and years of heaviness lifted magically! To your surprise, you start feeling lot energetic and optimistic in your daily life.

总之，背着多年的情感包袱对我们毫无益处。原谅，可以让我们丢掉背了多年的情感包袱。原谅过去所犯的错。而从开始原谅的那刻起，你会感觉轻松了许多，多年的沉重包袱也神奇的不见了！更让人惊喜的是，你从此开始感觉到每天的生活精力充沛，且乐观向上。

[学会原谅过更好的生活英语作文

Do you think what is the most important in your life? Maybe some answers

are dreams. I may directly answer “lovers”.

In my opinion, lovers not simply mean your partner of life, but the people

you love: your parents, husband or wife, children and friends. I have a happy

life because of their company. I even can’t imagine the life without them.

My mum told me” money is not as important as you think, you neednt think

too highly of it. Don’t be greedy, my girl.” I got it. Person around us is the

most important. If they are unhappy, you won’t be happy. There is many beautiful

scenery in our life, however, the most important thing we should notice is that,

without the people we love, they worth nothing.

In reality, many people are chasing wealth which results to the ignorance

of people around them. Obviously, its not a brilliant choice. Don’t’ be

controlled by wealth or money. About life , this is my idea, what’s about

yours?

First, we have four classes in the morning and three in the afternoon. We have to get to school before 7:30 because we have a morning class.

Second, I like my school life because teachers and my classmates are friendly and helpful. We also have lots of after-school activies.

Third, our school environment is very beautiful, the teachers all can make their lesson interesting and instructive. So I like my school life very much.

我的学校生活是忙碌的，神奇的。首先，我们有四节课在上午和下午三。我们到学校7:30之前因为我们早上有课。其次，我喜欢我的学校生活，因为老师和我的同学都很友好，乐于助人。我们也有很多的课外活动。第三、我们的学校环境很漂亮，老师们都能使自己的课有趣又有启发性。所以我非常喜欢我的学校生活。

My university life has been one of the most colorful parts of my life. I will never forget the day when I first stepped into the university. At that very moment, I was impressed immediately by the beautiful campus, the enthusiastic students and the good learning atmosphere. I fell in love with the campus at once.

First, studying on the campus gives me lots of pleasure. After some very arduous military training, I became absolutely absorbed in my studies. Different from high school courses, the courses in university are specific and interesting. I can get information not only from teachers in class, but also outside of class, such as in the library, on the Internet and so on. These courses arouse my insatiable desire for knowledge and make me learn and digest as much as I can. To be frank, I had some difficulties in keeping up with my teachers at first, but later with the help of my teachers, I made remarkable progress. Learning is a long process, and I will continue to be a learner throughout my life.

Besides, social activities on campus provide me with more chances to learn. I will never forget the days I served as a volunteer at the 2010 Shanghai World Expo. After some training in Chinese history and language skills both in Japanese and English, I endeavored to serve our distinguished guests from all over the world enthusiastically. I was a volunteer as well as a disseminator of our splendid culture. There was no doubt that I came across many difficulties at first, such as humid weather, language barriers and so on. Thanks to other volunteers’ help, I overcame those difficulties. When it was time to depart, I couldn’t help bursting into tears, because I had developed a deep friendship with other volunteers. This precious experience made me aware of the huge responsibility on my shoulders. Just as the old saying goes, “we make a living by what we get, and we make a life by what we give.”

In my opinion, university life has been the most splendid time in my life so far, and many students cherish this period of time and hope that in the future they may become outstanding members of society. But there are also some ignorant students who get together every day only to eat, drink, play computer games or date. They completely forget their mission as a college student and their responsibility to their family to do their best in school.

I want to say that although there are lots of difficulties or setbacks during our college days, we should set our goals and achieve them. I do hope we can try our best to become productive citizens of the country and make great contributions to the nation.
