+ 加入清单The Origin of Halloween
While there are many versions of the origins and old customs of Halloween, some remain consistent by all accounts. Different cultures view Holloween somewhat differently but traditional Halloween practices remain the same.
Halloween culture can be traced back to the Druids, a Celtic culture in Ireland, Britain and Northern Europe. Roots lay in the feast of Samhain, which was annually on October 31st to honor the dead.
Samhain signifies "summers end" or November. Samhain was a harvest festival with huge sacred bonfires, marking the end of the Celtic year and beginning of a new one. Many of the practices involved in this celebration were fed on superstition.
The Celts believed the souls of the dead roamed the streets and villages at night. Since not all spirits were thought to be friendly, gifts and treats were left out to pacify the evil and ensure next years crops would be plentiful. This custom evolved into trick-or-treating.
万圣节的起源
尽管关于万圣节的起源和旧俗有很多不同的看法,但有一些是被所有人接受的。不同文化看待万圣节总是有点不同,但是传统的万圣节做的事情都是一样的。
万圣节文化可以追溯到德鲁伊教,这是一种爱尔兰、北欧和英国的凯尔特文化,根植于Samhain节的庆祝活动,Samhain节于每年的10月31日纪念逝者。
Samhain节说明夏天结束或者十一月,是一个丰收的节日。在Samhain节会燃起神圣巨大的篝火,标志着凯尔特一年的结束和新一年的开始。一些做法因为迷信被加入庆祝活动中。
凯尔特人相信死者的灵魂会在夜里出没在街道和村庄。因为他们认为不是所有的灵魂都是友善的,所以就把礼物和好吃的留在外面安慰恶灵来确保来年的庄稼可以丰收。这种习俗演变成了trick-or-treating。

+ 加入清单Girls at a training course offered by the "Care for Girls" program in
Qingjian county, Shaanxi province, talked about their pursuit of dreams despite
living in unfavorable conditions.
Initiated by the National Health and Family Planning commission in 2013,
the program helps girls in underdeveloped regions to build their self-esteem and
self-confidence.
"I want to be a teacher teaching Chinese because I like Chinese and
writing," Xi said. "By teaching I can not only share knowledge with my students,
but also keep learning new things from new versions of textbooks."
She is living with her mother in a room that has no bathroom and costs 300
yuan ($48) a month to rent. Merit certificates she received from school are
displayed on the wall. Yan Lingling, Xis mother, said she is proud of her
daughter.
According to the family planning policy, couples in which both the husband
and wife have rural residential permits can have another child if their first is
a daughter. Yan said she isnt planning on adding to the family because she
wants to give her daughter the best she has.
"My husband is away most of the time, working in construction sites and
making no more than 30,000 yuan ($4,840) a year. I work as an hourly worker
sometimes. The rent of our apartment is expensive. One more child means one more
burden," Yan said.
Speaking about how she plans to achieve her dream of becoming a teacher, Xi
said: "I will not give up on my dream easily, though I know it may be difficult.
When something becomes difficult, it only makes me want to try harder."
篇5:高中英语作文:努力和运气
全文共 1067 字
+ 加入清单There is a saying that man proposes, goddisposes, which means man plan the things and the rest of the outcome lies inthe luck.
This saying reflects the connection between hard-work and luck, whichis though sometimes we have worked so hard, luck occupies great position, theunexpected things happen and refrain us from succeeding.
In order to besuccessful, people work so hard, they believe they can achieve their goals, butlacking luck stops them achieving their goals.
So working hard doesn’t meanbringing people success directly, they just need to try more times, withoutluck, they still can make their goals. Luck can help people close to success,without hard-work, they can’t be successful. Hard-work and luck make peoplerealize their goals, but without luck, people still can make it by trying moretimes.
有一句话说谋事在人,成事在天,意思是人们计划事情,剩下的结果依赖于运气。这句话反应了努力和运气之间的联系,那就是虽然有时候我们很努力工作,但是运气也占据了很重要的位置,意外的事情会发生,阻挡人们成功。为了取得成功,人们努力工作,他们相信能达到目标,但是运气的缺失让他们无法达到自己的目标。因此努力并不意味着能直接给人们带来成功,他们需要多试几次,没有运气,人们仍然可以达到目标。运气帮助人们接近成功,没有努力付出,无法成功。努力和运气能让人们实现目标,但是没有运气,人们多尝试几次,也能终将办到。

梦想是一只海燕。在心灵的海面上骄傲的翱翔。
让我们站在高峰上呐喊:“我的梦,中国梦!我的梦,中国梦!我要把它带给万古长青的草地,带给蔚蓝色的大海,带给万里无云的天空!我要坚持我的梦想,直到永远,永远……

篇20:关于高中端午节英语作文
全文共 1157 字
+ 加入清单The Dragon Boat Festival, also called Double Fifth Festival, is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth moon of the lunar calendar. It is one of the most important Chinese festivals, the other two being the Autumn Moon Festival and Chinese New Year。
The origin of this summer festival centers around a scholarly government official named Chu Yuan. He was a good and respected man, but because of the misdeeds of jealous rivals he eventually fell into disfavor in the emperors court。
Unable to regain the respect of the emperor, in his sorrow Chu Yuan threw himself into the Mi Low river. Because of their admiration for Chu Yuan, the local people living adjacent to the Mi Lo River rushed into their boats to search for him while throwing rice into the waters to appease the river dragons。
Although they were unable to find Chu Yuan, their efforts are still commemorated today during the Dragon Boat Festival。
端午节,又称为五五节,因为端午节是在农历的五月五日,是三个重要的中国节庆之一,其他两个分别是中秋节和农历新年。
这个节日的由来是古代中国有一位博学多闻的官吏屈原,他是一位爱民而且又受到尊崇的官吏,但是由於一位充满嫉妒的官吏陷害,从此在朝廷中被皇帝所冷落。由於无法获得皇帝的重视,屈原在忧郁的情况下投汨罗江自尽。
由於对屈原的爱戴,汨罗江畔的居民匆忙的划船在江内寻找屈原,并且将米丢入汨罗江中,以平息汨罗江中的蛟龙。即使他们当时并没有找到屈原,但是他们的行为,直到今天在端午节的时候,仍然被人们传颂纪念着。
