关于暑假的英语作文10句话【精彩20篇】

The summer vacation is here, and the students are very happy. Now I will

introduce to you how my summer vacation was spent.

When I started to do my homework during the summer vacation, I was always

afraid that I would not finish it. As a result, on July 15th, I was almost

finished. After a few days, the rest of the homework was finished, and there

were only two essays left. I didnt write until August 14th. Next week, my

parents are going to take me to play for two days. I am very happy. Summer is

almost over and I really wish it would be longer.

The summer vacation is almost over, and I have something to worry

about.

Its just that I havent written an essay yet. The school will start soon,

when will I write? In ancient times, people often said: The young and the strong

do not work hard, and the boss is sad. We want us to cherish time, but if I am

different, I will waste time. I am lazy. I hope this shortcoming can be

corrected. I hope you can support me a lot!

Today is the first day of my learning to swim. Before that, I prepared some

necessary things for swimming, such as swimming caps, swimming trunks, swimming

goggles, etc., and I was excited for several days, looking forward to todays

arrival.

When I came to the swimming pool of Baolihao Fitness Center, I saw that the

water was clear and clear, and it could be used as a mirror. I was in a group

with three other children, who, like me, came to study on the first day. Our

main task today is to practice holding and breathing. Yutian, I have never been

in contact with water, so at first I was afraid to hold my breath because of the

water, but when I saw everyone elses head sinking, I mustered up the courage to

sink my head, but it took less than six seconds to come out, and the other

students It took me about 30 seconds to hold back. It seems that I have to do my

best.

When I got home, my mother told me that I have to be determined to do

anything. Since I have gone to learn, I must learn it. If some movements are not

in place, I must find a way to practice more. I think what my mother said makes

a lot of sense, so I practiced holding my breath in the washbasin at night. It

lasted for more than 20 seconds at most. It seems that as long as I work hard, I

can do better. If there is a will, things will come true !

Today is the beginning of the summer holiday,so Im very happy.And I also think of how spend the holiday.First,I have to do my homework.Then,I want to join the summer camp for visit Beijing city.I think it is a beautiful city.And next,I want to play basketball with my good friends every morning,because I cant play basketball well.Sure,

I also want to watch some movies,such as Harry Potter.I belive I can spend the holiday well!

the summer vacation had come round again. i was happy that i could forget about school at least for a while. lest i fool around all through this summer vacation, i made a plan as to how to spend it. first, i thought i should go over all those things my teachers taught in the previous term so that i could have a better understanding of them.

then i thought i should take up some forms of exercise, such as walking, running and rowing, to keep me physically strong. it stood to reason that with such a good plan i should make the best of my vacation time. i did, because i lived up to what i had planned.

As the time by, I finished my vacation and returned the school. I know it is the time that I should say goodbye to my vacation life and adapt myself to school life. There is no doubt that I enjoy my vacation very much not only because in the vacation I could relax but also I can do what I would like to do keeping away from the pressure of the lesson and examination. I like travel very much so I spent about three days going for a trip with my sister and my good friends. We went to a beautiful small island named NanAo, which is near my hometown.

I almost could not control my excitement and happiness when Ifirst caught sight of the islandsurrounded by the cleanly blue-black water of the sea and where you can see the white and soft beach from a far distance. I thought maybe it was becauseI had not seen the sea for a long time that I felt so excited and happy when I dipped my feet in the cool seawater. I remembered I did not leave the beach until I was so hungry that I had to go for a dinner with my sister. We enjoyed our time very much. Finally we were reluctant to leave Nanao and were determined to visit there again next holiday.

Today,Its very interesting,I with my brother went to the art exhibition.

In the art exhibition,I saw the many draw a portrait,Its very interesting,My favorite is the one painting the sky,Its very beautiful.painting is the blue bird days and there were clouds,what a wondeful ah,There many,many paintings,very beautiful.

Today is a great day,Hope that also the case.

今天，逢场的有趣，我和我弟弟一起去了画展。

在画展上，我看见了许多的画像，都很有趣。我最喜欢的是一幅天空的画，非常的美。画的是蔚蓝的天空和白云还有小鸟，多么美好啊。还有很多很多的画，都非常美的。

今天可真好啊，希望以后也如此。

A "May Day" golden week we didnt go out to travel, but chose a sunny day, with a sister, three aunt came to the countryside to feel the beauty of the countryside. Our destination is the old village man.

Open outside the car, there are pieces of cropland, front fields of green seedlings, there will be heavy rapeseed, a ridge ridge of bending the branches, the earth is like a layer of green carpet on the shop. In the distance, you can see the farmer in the cultivated land and the shepherd boy.

An hour later, the "old village head" farmhouse, a clear brook flows slowly from the farmhouse, made of wood and bamboo bridge, we carefully looked into the water and swarms of small fish in the water swimming free. As soon as I sat down, I saw three horses on the other side of the bank, and my brother and I were clamoring for a ride. Riding on the saddle I really like that one thing, and both hands pulled the REINS, chest, belly, commanding, feel is "hua mu LAN", horse step step walk, "dangdang" sound, like in the name allegro, soon the man behind. There came a grove of trees, and the green leaves covered the golden sun like an umbrella. A few birds on the tree sang merrily, and the soft branches swayed lightly with the breeze.

Out of the woods, they saw a few big cock ran full mountain, not far from a flock of ducks in the creek happy play, the shore the cattle are lazy shook his tail eating grass, recreational fishing is not hand rod in fishing, or enjoy the beautiful scenery. Elder brother, younger brother and I cant stay off his clothing, shoes, suddenly burst into the brook, and lively, like a small fish in the water a water fight, get wet body.

How beautiful the countryside is! Have a chance everybody also go to the country look!

At that time, was a coastal city flooded. Scene dismal, make people afraid.

My summer vacation life is full of artistic breath, filled with a special atmosphere, I love my summer vacation life!

我的暑假生活多姿多彩。因为我选择学习了一些兴趣班。

其中，我最爱学古筝，因为它的音调好似行云流水、小溪潺潺、鸟儿鸣叫，若是让资深者弹上一曲，你定会沉浸其中，无法自拔。即使是喧嚣的城市，添上古筝的调儿，也会显得异常宁静，祥和，便有了古代那种让人陶醉的氛围。伤心时，来一曲《小白菜》陪你落泪;兴奋时，来一首《老六板》和你同乐;春天到了，就来一曲《杨柳青》吧;入夜了，弹一首《静悄悄》吧;看到农民伯伯开心得收成农作物，那就来一曲《愉快的劳动》。筝曲伴我度过欢乐、悲伤、忧郁的每一天!

暑假生活自然也少不了因为自然气候而特别的时候。

昨天来了台风，一切的一切都变了。“麦莎”疯狂得呼啸而来，草木或其他东西都遭到了不同程度的损坏。据杭州新闻报道，一些简陋住房的屋顶几乎全部损坏了，房间漏了水，政府只好将那些住主带去居委会或学校暂住，其中也包括外来务工者。一位周小姐回家时，肩膀被倒下的大树压伤。一些建筑工地下的道路也被工地上由于台风席卷下的建筑材料盖满。一时间，沿海城市被洪水淹了。景象惨不忍睹，叫人害怕。

我的暑假生活充满了艺术气息，充满了特别氛围，我喜爱我的暑假生活!

The summer job is a tradition among students of American universities. Long before the end of the school year,students begin their search for jobs during vacation .

Students send letters to businesses, talk to employers about job opportunities during the summer, and ask friends and relatives to be on the lookout for jobs for them. By June the students have usually solved the problem and begin to make preparations for leaving their books to enter the business world.

Reasons for wanting a summer job are different from student to student. Some work to help pay their school expenses; others work to gain experience in their chosen professions; still others work just for the fun of it.

Typist, construction worker, salesman, lifeguard, and waiter these are some of the more common jobs that students try to find during the summer months. But many young people find work that is a little more unusual.

Summertime is the best time of the year. There is no school for months and I get to do what I want. With no tests and no homework, Im as free as a bird.

夏季是一年中最好的时光。(几个)月不用去学校并且我可以做自己想做的事。没有考试、没有作业，我自由地像只小鸟。

I do many things during the summer vacation. I relax by reading books and watching TV. I also hang out with my friends or travel with my family. However, I dont only play in summer. I take advantage of the free time to learn more. For example, last summer I learned to swim. This summer I might study computers or English. Summer vacation flies by fast, so its important to do as much as you can.

暑假期间，我可以做很多事。我通过阅读与看电视放松自己。我也常常与朋友一起打发时间或者与家人一起去旅游。可是，暑假期间，我并不只是游玩。我充分利用闲暇时间去学习更多的(知识)。举例来说，去年暑假，我就学习游泳。这个暑假，我可能会学习计算机或英语(知识)。暑期过得很快，所以，对于你而言，应该尽可能做更多的事。

Said the summer vacation, first think of is the holiday, and then is summer, hot.

Go downstairs, warm wind stroked the cheek, naughty hands with no power from my face 1 of "pa" shoot on my face, and then quietly away. In a short time, and head-on attack, blow hair flew, the naughty boy seems to also dont want to have a rest.

Go with the wind, the wind and I am a group, when Im going to dump her body a little some, the wind like a soft, smooth layer of clouds to support me, originally it can also help me!

Once angered it, even the little guy, also has a strong heart of revenge. If I were wind, it blows my hair, always tell me to do, say turned against turned against it.

When reading a book under the tree, soft soil, the hot sun was upstaged by green willows are, just a little light is transmitted in the branches, warm wind nor against you at this time, but was attracted by the book in the past, and I sit together, with to see the picture in picture and the natural natural summer painting and the author depicts the summer picture in the book, having a unique style. When you are fascinated with naughty, love to play the naughty child wind baby cheer, always Shouting, non-stop, really energetic, these children and the baby is really hit it off, is a good combination! However, the birds on the tree are they shake down.

Tick the so beautiful landscapes, still really want to thank the painting workers, little also not, of course, the wind babys cooperation. This summer, will have a colorful? - well, sure will!

说道暑假，首先想起的就是放假，然后是夏天，炎热。

走出楼下，暖风抚摸着脸颊，调皮的从我的脸上用毫无力量的小手“啪”的一声拍在我的脸上，然后悄悄逃走。不一会儿，又迎面袭击而来，吹的头发飞了起来，这调皮的小家伙看来还不想休息。

顺着风走，风和我是一伙的，当我将身子稍微倾倒一些，风就像是一层软软的、光滑的白云支撑着我，原来它也有帮助我的时候呢!

一旦惹怒了它，就算是这小家伙，也有很强的报复心。我要是逆风而行，它就吹乱我的头发，总跟我做对，说翻脸就翻脸。

这时在树下看书，松软的土地，炎热的太阳被绿树成荫的柳树们抢了风头，只透射一点光线照在树杈之中，暖风此时也不再和你作对，而是被书吸引了过去，和我同坐在一起，欣赏画中画，这幅天然的自然夏日画和书中作者描绘的夏日画，都别具一格。当你正看得入迷时，这些调皮的孩子加上调皮、爱玩的风宝宝的助威，总是叫喊着，不停歇，真是精力旺盛，这些孩子和风宝宝还真是合得来，是个很好的组合呢!不过，树上的小鸟们都被他们震了下去。

勾出这么美好的风景画，还真是要感谢绘画人员呢，当然也少不了风宝宝的合作。这个暑假，会过得有声有色吧?——嗯，一定会的!

DEATH CHEN

Good morning, mydear fellows. I am happy to see all of our classmates come back to school. Iwould like to share my life in holiday with you. This summer holiday, I spentmost of my time in playing, like watching TV, playing games, outing with friendsand so on. But I also pay attention to my study. For example, I like watchingthe educational TV programs, so that I can both have fun and learn somethingnew at the same time. Besides, I get up early to do some morning reading topractice my English. Of course, I finish my summer exercises on time. In short,my summer holiday is colorful and meaningful. How about your life in summerholiday? I am eager to know.

早上好，我亲爱的同学们。我很高兴看到所有的同学都返校了。我想要与大家分享我的假期生活。这个暑假，我花大部分的时间玩耍，比如看电视，玩游戏，和朋友出去玩等等。但是我也关心我的学习。比如说，我喜欢看教育电视节目，这样我既可以得到乐趣又可以同时学到一些新的东西。除此之外，我早上起得很早进行早读以锻炼我的英语。当然，我也按时完成了暑假作业。总是，我的暑假多彩且富有意义。你们的暑假生活是怎么样的呢？我很想知道。

Summer can be very hot in southern taibei where the temperature usually goes up to 32"C or more. Because of the heat it is a trying experience to go to school or do anything else in a place that is not air-conditioned. Also because of this I stay at home most of the time during the summer vacation and only occasionally go to the beach to plunge myself into the cool water as a way to keep my body less sticky. Actually I like swimming and think nothing is more refreshing than a swim. In the summer vacation that has just ended I went swimming many times with my classmates and we all had a good time. This summer vacation, however, was not spent entirely in seeking fun. As a second-year senior student I had to prepare myself for the college entrance examinations that were only a year away. In other words, I must find time to study, too. So I divided my time between work and play during the summer vacation and derived much benefit from this arrangement.

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.
