blind eye to the love. One day I deeply felt the love.

Its so convenient and interesting to join a tourist group. When you travel

with a tourist group, you don’t need to book plane and train tickets, and you

dont have to care about where to live and what to eat either, because the

travel agency will arrange everything for you. All you need to do is to follow

the tour guides. They will take you to all the places of interest. They will

tell you stories about the interesting places and help you to learn local

culture. This is called a package tour.

A cruise trip is so comfortable and relaxing. You travel on a large sea

cruiser and enjoy the beautiful scenery. When you come up to a nice place, you

can get off the cruiser and visit there. When you are on board, you can lie on

the deck, watching the blue sky, the white cloud and the bright sun, and you

will be free from stress. Besides, there are so many nice activities on the

cruise. For example, you can watch movies; you can see concerts; you can go

swimming in the swimming pool; you can play cards; you can play golf; you can

watch wonderful performances; and you can also attend dancing parties. Nothing

could be more wonderful and relaxing.

Nowadays, backpacking tour has become so popular. Its not just a low-cost

travel for budget travelers, but also a nice entertainment. When you have a

backpacking tour, you can use public transportations like buses and subways and

stay in hostels instead of big hotels, which can save you a lot of money. Today,

this kind of travel is especially popular with young people, because they can

discover the interesting places and know more about the local cultures by

themselves. Its so exciting.

If you want to have a better understanding of a place, you can have a slow

travel. When you have a slow travel, you had better spend at least one week

living in one place, stay with a local family and visit interesting sites near

your living instead of rushing around for a long day to see the must-sees. In

this way, you can make more local friends, taste local food, and know the local

traditions and customs deeper. Only so can you become more knowledgeable and

widen your experience.

It depends on your need to choose the way you want to travel.

The shared bikes like Mobike and Ofo bring great convenience to people. You

needn’t lock them by simply using your smart phone. They can take you where the

subway and bus don’t go. And they can be left anywhere in public for the next

user.

However, bad things happen. Some people damage the QR code on the bike, or

use their own lock, which causes trouble to other users.

In my opinion, it’s difficult to turn these people’s ideas in a short time.

Therefore, bike-sharing companies like Mobike and Ofo need to do something. For

example, those who damage the bike should pay for their actions. Also, because

people use their real name to register as a user, it’s a good way to connect to

one’s personal credit.

In the end, what I want to say is to take good care of public services.

今年的重阳节即将来临。对于你来说,重阳节计划怎么过呢?如果你是年轻人,重阳节这天你可能是送给了爸爸妈妈一份礼物,或者带他们出门旅游,放松心情;或者给家里打了一个的电话,让温馨的问候,成为暖心的礼物。如果你是老人,可能受到了一些组织的慰问,或者被邀请去参加活动。然后节日结束了,但是大家千万不要像没事人一样该怎么过就怎么过,一定还要继续尊敬老人,爱护老人、关心老人。

国家把重阳节这一天规定为敬老节,目的是用这种开展活动的方式来让人们树立尊老敬老的意识。国家设立一个社会普遍接受的节日,重要的目的在于提醒全社会对于某件事情的关注,而不是这件事情只有到了节日才想起来做。

其实,老人们要求很简单,公园散步的陪伴、周末回家的晚餐、电话的问候,都能让他们感到无比的满足与幸福。

孝敬老人不仅仅要在重阳节这天,而且要时常提醒自己,平时对老人关心得够不够。又是一年重阳节,从现在开始就让我们更多地去关爱老人吧,那才是有意义的重阳节。

篇20:怀念的英语作文初中

全文共 2558 字

When memory began for me, my grandfather was past sixty-a great tall man

with thick hair becoming gray. He had black eyes and a straight nose which ended

in a slightly flattened tip. Once he explained seriously to me that he got that

flattened tip as a small child when he fell down and stepped on his nose.

The little marks of laughter at the corners of his eyes were the prodnct of

a kindly and humorous nature. The years of work which had bent his shoulders had

never dulled his humour nor his love of a joke.

Everywhere he went, "Gramp" made friends easily. At the end of half an hour

you felt you had known him all your life. I soon learned that he hated to give

orders , but that when he had to, he tried to make his orders sound like

suggestions.

One July morning, as he was leaving to go to the cornfield, he said :

"Edwin, you can pick up the potatoes in the field today if you want to do that.

" Then he drove away with his horses.

The day passed, and I did not have any desire to pick up potatoes. Evening

came and the potatoes were still in the field. Gramp, dusty and tired, led the

horses to get their drink.

"How many bags of potatoes were there?" Gramp inquired. "I dont know.

"

"How many potatoes did you pick up?"

"I didnt pick any. " "Not any! Why not?"

"You said I could pick, them up if I wanted to. You didnt say I had to.

"

In the next few minutes I learned a lesson I would not forget: when Gramp

said I could if I wanted to, he meant that I should want to.

Gram hated cruelty and injustice. The injustices of history, even those of

a thousand years before, angered her as much as the injustices of her own

day.

She also had a deep love of beauty. When she was almost seventy-five, and

had gone to live with one of her daughters, she spent a delightful morning

washing dishes because, as she said, the beautiful patterns on the dishes gave

her pleasure. The bird, the flowers, the clouds-all that was beautiful around

her- pleased her. She was like the father of the French painter, Millet, who

used to gather grass and show it to his son , saying , "See how beautif ul this

is ! "

In a pioneer society it is the harder qualities of mind and character that

are of value. The softer virtues are considered unnecessary. Men and women

struggling daily to earn a living are unable, even for a moment, to forget the

business of preserving their lives. Only unusual people, like my grandparents,

manage to keep the softer qualities in a world of daily struggle.

Such were the two people with whom I spent the months from June to

September in the wonderful days of summer and youth.
