有关元宵节的英语作文高中汇集20篇

Happy New Year arent in the past, the Lantern Festival. I am excited and

looking forward to its getting dark. In the evening, early supper, my father to

accompany me to go to the lantern.

Enter a gate, I was impressed by a red lanterns. Lanterns are the four most

beautiful women in ancient: Yang, wang zhaojun, sable chan and xi shi, the

moving posture they make every person who watch the tut praise good. Move on,

and I will think of a childrens song: "one boy is a boy, two boys half a boy,

three boys no water to drink." See the three boys cry sigh, I couldnt help

laughing. This story also tells us a truth, do look beyond their own private

interests, pushed around the result is nothing. So, whatever we do, we are of

others, to put a little generous.

Across the small stone bridge, I see a beautiful peacock in corner, saw it

slowly unfold its beautiful feathers, a lot of tourists can not help a deep sigh

of "wow" and "wow". To the other side of the river is two dragon boat, with a

"leap" in the middle, two fish kept jumping before, and if really jumps the

gantry. Go forward again, the scene is spectacular. Only nine shape with

different color dragon churning the fly to the sky, a sign of the explosion of

China. Our country will be prosperous day after day!

Have seen lanterns, we went home. Walk the road, I think: next years

lantern certainly is better than this year!

新年的喜气还没过去，元宵节就到了。我怀着激动的心情，盼望着天快黑下来。晚上，早早地吃过晚饭，爸爸就陪我去看花灯。

一进大门，我就被眼前的一个大红灯笼给吸引住了。灯笼上有古代的四大美女：杨贵妃、王昭君、貂婵和西施，她们那动人的姿态使每位观赏的人啧啧赞好。继续向前，我便想起一首儿歌：“一个和尚挑水喝，两个和尚抬水喝，三个和尚没水喝。”看到那三个和尚哀声叹气的神情，我禁不住哈哈大笑。这个故事也告诉我们一个道理，做什么事光顾着自己的私人利益，推来推去结果只能是一无所获。所以说，我们无论做什么事都要为别人着想，放得大度一点儿。

我跨过小石桥，在转弯处看到一只美丽的孔雀，只见它慢慢地展开它美丽的羽毛，很多游人禁不住发出“哇”、“哇”的感叹声。河的对面是两只龙舟，中间夹着一处“鱼跃龙门”，两只鱼儿不停地跳跃前，好像真的跃过了龙门。再向前方走，那场面简直太壮观了。只见九条形状颜色各异的龙翻腾着向天空飞去，这象征着腾飞的中国。我们的国家将一天天地繁荣昌盛起来!

看过花灯，我们回家了。路上，我一边走一边想：明年的花灯一定比今年更美!

我的高中生活优秀英语作文一：

Now, the new semester has begun for more than one week. I gradually adapt to my new life in senior school. In senior school, my biggest feeling is busy, for I have classes all the day and teachers leave us a lot of homework. In the morning, I have two periods for morning reading, Chinese and English, beginning from 7:00. After that, I have four periods in the morning and four other in the afternoon. There are many more subjects than in middle school, Chinese, math, English, physics, chemistry, history and so on. Sometimes, I am afraid of seeing so many textbooks in my desk. In addition, the contents are much more difficult than before. Math and physics are the most difficult ones for me. No matter how hard I work, I still can’t do well in them, which makes me frustrated. Therefore, in the new beginning, I must change my learning strategies to make my work more effective. All in all, my new life in new school is good and rich, though it’s busy.

我的高中生活优秀英语作文二：

Generally speaking, life in high school is busy and fulfilling, due to the ultimate goal---College Entrance Examination. Many people say that there is no fun left but bored study and endless exercises. However, as a high school student, I can’t agree with them. Personally, I live a fruitful but happy life in high school. It can’t be denied that study is my priority that I must spend most of my time and energy on it. Sometimes, study may make me frustrated or even drive me crazy, but I still can adjust my mood to enjoy my life. Besides, I can also get a sense of achievement when I do well in my study or make progress. The most important is that my friends bring much happiness to me and my parents’ care inspires me to go on. I think friends in high school are my best friend forever, because they know me a lot and witness all of my emotions. They are the persons who grow with me. In addition, teachers in high school care much about our students both in study and life, and classmates are always friendly to each other. We build deep friendship together. All of these make up my fruitful life in high school, which I will cherish forever.

一般来说，高中生活是忙碌而又充实的，因为我们最终的目标都是高考。很多人说，除了无聊的学习和无止的练习根本就没有乐趣可言。然而，作为一名高中生，我不同意他们的说法。在我看来，我的高中生活充实而又快乐。不能否认，学习是我的首要任务，去必须把握大部分的时间和经历花在上面。有时候，学习是我感到沮丧，甚至快要发疯;但是我仍然能够调节我的心情去享受生活。除此之外，当我在学习上做得很好或者是取得进步的时候，我感到一种成就感。最重要的是，我的朋友给我带来了很多快乐，父母的关心也激励着我继续前进。我认为高中时期的朋友永远是我最好的朋友，因为他们了解我，见证了我所有的情感，他们是和我一起成长的人。另外，高中的老师在学习和生活上更关心学生，同学彼此之间也很友好。我们一起建立了深厚的友谊。所有的这些构成了我充实的高中生活，我将永远珍惜它。

我的高中生活优秀英语作文三：

According to my memory, my high school life was full of happiness and fortune because of my lovely friend and teacher. They are sunshine in my high school life.

根据记忆，我的高中生活充满了幸福和运气，因为有可爱的朋友和老师。他们是我高中生活的阳光。

I met my best friend in senior one. She is a girl with long legs, white skin, and small face. What makes me a deep impression is her wide shoulder, wider than other girls who have the same height as her. She was kind, treating me just like I was her sister. I didn’t live in school dormitory, but she did. So, I slept with her at noon. Sometimes we argued, but we both checked our mistakes and recovered our relationship soon. When we were senior two, I moved in school dormitory, I didn’t feel comfortable in there very fast. She took care of me and made me feel warm. In my opinion, she is more than a friend, like a family.

在高一的时候我遇到了我最好的朋友。她是一个女孩，有着一条长长的腿，白皙的皮肤和小小的脸蛋。她比同身高的女生都要宽的宽宽的肩膀让我印象深刻。她很善良，对我就像是她妹妹一样。我不在学校宿舍住，但是她在。所以，中午我和她一起睡。有时候我们会争吵，但我们都自我反省，之后我们的关系很快就会恢复了。当我们高二的时候，我搬到学校宿舍住，很快我就觉得不舒服。她照顾我，让我感到很温暖。在我看来，她不止是朋友，也是家人。

As for my teachers, my chemistry teacher is my favorite teacher. She is a woman with sweet smile, not so tall, but she built a tall imagination in my heart. I used to chat with her result from my failure in the exam. She is a divorced woman; however, she was steel, living a happy life with her daughter. I appreciate people with a strong heart, maybe the reason is that I want to be the kind of person who is always optimistic and can’t be defeated easily. She expresses that.

至于我的老师，我最喜欢的老师是我的化学老师。她是一个女老师，总是挂着甜美的微笑，她不是很高，但她在我的心里却是伟大的形象。我曾经因为考试不及格而和她聊天。她是一个离了婚的女人;然而，她却像钢铁一样坚强，和她的女儿过着幸福的生活。我很欣赏拥有一颗坚强的心的人，也许是因为我想成为一个永远乐观，不轻易被打败的人。她说道。

The high school memory is a valuable memory in my life. It’s my fortune to meet them, my sunshine.

在我的人生中高中记忆是我一段宝贵的记忆。遇见他们，我的阳光是我的运气。

There is a saying that man proposes, god disposes, which means man plan the

things and the rest of the outcome lies in the luck. This saying reflects the

connection between hard-work and luck, which is though sometimes we have worked

so hard, luck occupies great position, the unexpected things happen and refrain

us from succeeding. In order to be successful, people work so hard, they believe

they can achieve their goals, but lacking luck stops them achieving their goals.

So working hard doesn’t mean bringing people success directly, they just need to

try more times, without luck, 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 people realize their goals, but without luck, people still can

make it by trying more times.

两日的冰雪封住了条条小道，封不了人们欢度佳节的热情。夜幕降临，万家灯火辉煌璀璨，一只只红灯笼，映衬着那一轮灿烂的亮晶晶的月。高高的月儿，浓浓的情，轻柔的抚摸着多少双仰望的眼睛；咚咚的爆竹，绚烂的花，震耳的炮声颤落几滴相思泪？

这个欢乐祥和的小镇里，春节每一天无不是被爆竹声淹没的，元宵佳节更是如此！

莹莹的月光刚撒下大地，一声声巨响便7由远而近的飘舞而来了。渐渐地，这响声如潮水般越来越密集，越来越猛烈。一道道彩显腾空而起，一丛丛火焰燃烧上天空，一朵朵礼花绽放在云霄，一声声巨响震得个云淡田清。一阵阵巨浪汹涌地拍打过来了，一次次风暴疯狂的袭卷而来了，这气势，好似千军万马呐喊而来，好似亿万花朵频频献芳。看着满天娇艳，万紫千红，如临仙境，又入神谷，一缕缕芳香让人心神荡漾！如果说月是一首永恒不变的诗，满天烟火便是一卷千变万化的画。

突然，出现了难得的稍许寂静。可霎那间，一条金黄而渺小的细条溜向了烟气弥漫的天空。嘭，一朵硕大而灿烂的礼花在空旷的天空中傲然开放了。它是那么美，那么耀眼，鲜艳的红色和绿色交融在一起，好似一朵被绿色相衬的桃花，照亮了整个大地！家家挂的大灯笼也顿时黯淡无光，被它那强大的光辉征服了！一花未平，群花又起，另一朵礼花便在它的余晖下绽放了，是金色的，不怎么美丽，让人感到十分无味，突然被分散开的淡淡金丝，顿时大方异彩，一下子变得闪亮烂漫，“哗哗”地闪烁着，而且越分越多，即像夏日的满天星辰，又像万千个小金猪扇着耳朵。转瞬间，这朵美丽的礼花也要瓣尽香散了，可是另一朵礼花又开放除了金色绚烂的菊花，延续了上一朵的美丽。就这样，一菊飘香，万花献瓣，它们用消逝来延续着绚烂的身姿，金得耀眼，亮得赛阳，让人叹为观止，让人赞无言词！

春园的百花哪能看绝！不一会儿便看的乱目，听得响耳了。也许是纷纷白雪阻挡了人们舞狮观灯、猜谜踩高跷的热情，但却被空中异彩纷呈的烟火映成了一幅幅“彩雪画”！

There is no doubt that learning English is vital for us. On the one hand,

English has become an international language that people can communicate with

each other in many countries. On the other hand, if we learn English well, we

could get more chance of success.

However, it is well-known that there are many methods for us to learn

English well. There are some tips. First, we can study in a group to improve

learning efficiency. Second, we could listen to English songs and watch English

movies; this way is very suitable for student to improve their listening and

speaking abilities. Third, I have believed that a great deal of practice can

strengthen language knowledge.

In a word, it is natural for us to learn English well by making efforts. If

we didnt work hard, we would never do well in learning English.

Dragon Boat race Traditions

At the center of this festival are the dragon boat races. Competing teams drive their colorful dragon boats forward to the rhythm of beating drums. These exciting races were inspired by the villagers valiant attempts to rescue Chu Yuan from the Mi Luo river. This tradition has remained unbroken for centuries.

Tzung Tzu

A very popular dish during the Dragon Boat festival is tzung tzu. This tasty dish consists of rice dumplings with meat, peanut, egg yolk, or other fillings wrapped in bamboo leaves. The tradition of tzung tzu is meant to remind us of the village fishermen scattering rice across the water of the Mi Luo river in order to appease the river dragons so that they would not devour Chu Yuan.

Ay Taso

The time of year of the Dragon Boat Festival, the fifth lunar moon, has more significance than just the story of Qu Yuan. Many Chinese consider this time of year an especially dangerous time when extra efforts must be made to protect their family from illness. Families will hang various herbs, called Ay Tsao, on their door for protection. The drinking of realgar wine is thought to remove poisons from the body. Hsiang Bao are also worn. These sachets contain various fragrant medicinal herbs thought to protect the wearer from illness.

翻译：风俗习惯端午节最重要的活动是龙舟竞赛。比赛的队伍他们多彩的龙舟前进的鼓声中。这项活动的灵感是来自村民的勇敢的尝试营救汨罗江畔的屈原。这个传统一直保持了几个世纪。

粽子非常受欢迎的菜在端午节粽子。粽子的米包着肉、花生、蛋黄及其他材料，再以竹叶包裹。而粽子的传统是为了提醒我们的渔夫，将米丢进汨罗河水安抚蛟龙，希望他们不要将屈原吃掉。

塔索(Taso)的时间每年的端午节，农历的第五天，具有更多的意义，不仅仅是屈原的故事。许多中国人认为每年的这个时候，一个特别危险的时候，必须做出额外的努力，保护家人免受疾病。家庭在门上将挂各种草药，叫驱邪。喝雄黄酒被认为是去除体内的毒物。香包也穿，它是以含有多种香味药草认为保护人们远离疾病。

I had a great time throughout my may day holiday.

On monday, i went bbq with my classmates who threw a celebration party at our middle school principles flat. our parents were invited to the party. everybody was excited about the holiday. i ate a lot of delicious food at that time.

On tuesday, i went visiting my uncles family with my parents. we went to celebrate our good time at a fancy restaurant in shanghai. later that day, we sang karaoke in my uncles house. we stayed for the night.

On wednesday, i went shopping with my cousins. we bought some brand name t-shirts and pants. in the afternoon, my cousins gave me a fun ride on the city highway. they also taught me how to drive their fancy car, so i tried to do some turning and parking. it was not easy first. but i learnt quick.

on thursday, we returned home with many gifts from our trip. i tried to get some rest. at night, i chatted with my classmates on the phone, and i watched cctv before going to bed.

From friday on, i started to finish up my homework assignments on my personal laptop. some of my assignments were quite boring. after i finished the homework, i emailed them to my teachers. that was the end of it. i started to prepare things for school on this coming monday.

Many traditional arts are losing nowadays, because some of them have been

replaced by the new machines and the scientific products. I feel so sorry about

the losing arts, in my opinion, they are so classic and their charm will never

fade away. Take my grandma for example. She is good at paper-cut which was

inherited from her mother. But when comes to my mother’s generation, paper-cut

seems to be kicked out, there are less people need it, so my mother doesn’t

learn this skill. The paper-cut art is losing in my family. When I found my

grandma had this skill, I was so surprised and curious about it. I asked my

grandma to teach me this skill. During the process, I found this art was so

great, I was attracted by it. Some traditional arts like paper-cup should be

kept.

Traveling is a good activity. When you are fed up with your work and study, and when you are free, you can go to a beautiful place to enjoy the beauty of nature, you can breathe fresh air, and make some friends. But sometimes, it is not a good thing. The weather often changes, you may be caught in the rain and may catch a cold while traveling. Therefore, you should prepare yourself carefully before the trip. You had better find a companion, so that you can help each other.

The population of the world has already passed six billion. The population problem may be the greatest challenge of the world today. The earth has been very crowded and there will be standing room only before long.

China’s One Child Policy is a good way to solve this problem and stop the population from growing so fast. It also can help our country develop quickly then people’s standard of living will become higher and higher.

At the same time a lot of other problems will be done with, such as employment problems, food problems, water problems and so on…So I think it is necessary for China to carry out this policy.

元宵节是我国传统节日之一，虽然它的盛大程度还不及春节，但是我认为，元宵节也是一个能带来欢乐的节日。

元宵节的清晨，爸爸会给我煮一碗热气腾腾的汤圆，汤圆好可爱，白白胖胖的，扬着圆乎乎的“汤圆脸”来回扭动，“给我让点儿空呗！”“哎呀，我的‘内脏’都被你们挤出来了！”我猜它们一定在互相挤着说这些话。我笑呵呵地拿起勺子，先舀了一个“半死不活”的小汤圆，毫不犹豫地扔进嘴里。“哎呀烫死我了！”我被烫了一下，我刚进嘴的汤圆也被吐出来，得意扬扬地扬着脸：“哈哈，你活该，你活该，谁叫你先吃我的！”我吸取教训，吹一吹吃掉所有的汤圆。

吃完早饭，姑姑他们一家来了，我们嬉笑着互相打趣着。表弟先向我开火：“你脸跟这汤圆差不多，小心一口吃掉啊！”我姑父和旁听的爸爸哈哈笑着，姑父帮我开火：“塞翁失马，焉知非福。你这小脸才该小心呢！”表弟一脸“愤怒”恨不得把他爸爸当汤圆一口吃了，我们其他人不约而同的拍着大腿笑。

夜晚来临了，晚饭依旧很丰盛，还有一道特殊的菜：炸汤圆。原来雪白的汤圆炸至淡黄色，但是水果汤圆炸出来又酸又甜，害我们一会儿被酸的挤眼，一会儿甜得摸脸直叫好吃，真好玩。吃饱喝足，好玩的表弟拉着姑父和爸爸闹着出去玩，妈妈、姑姑也带着表弟出去逛街了，我独守房间，静静地注视着刚被爸爸点好的小蜡烛，金黄色的火焰在晚风的轻拂下轻轻摇曳，显得很是安详。我轻轻地摸了摸蜡烛余下的部分，热乎乎的，像刚出锅不一会儿的小汤圆。望着这安详的小蜡烛，我的心里也很平静，屋子里静悄悄的，我甚至都可以听到我的小心脏在“砰砰”地跳动着，屋子里的灯被我关掉了，这“星星之火”，突然间显得如此明亮，好温馨的感觉。

快九点的时候，爸爸妈妈和弟弟一起回来了，姑姑一家也回去了，我迷迷糊糊中，想到表弟也已经窝在姑父的车里，在清凉的晚风和灯光辉煌中闭上了眼睛，元宵节也在一片夜晚的宁静下落下了幕布。

[难忘的元宵节高中作文

There are many different beliefs about the origin of the Lantern Festival.

But one thing for sure is that it had something to do with celebrating and

cultivating positive relationship between people, families, nature and the

higher beings they believed were responsible for bringing/returning the light

each year.

One legend tells us that it was a time to worship Taiyi, the God of Heaven

in ancient times. The belief was that the God of Heaven controlled the destiny

of the human world. He had sixteen dragons at his beck and call and he decided

when to inflict drought, storms, famine or pestilence upon human beings.

Beginning with Qinshihuang, the first emperor to unite the country, all the

emperors ordered splendid ceremonies each year. The emperor would ask Taiyi to

bring favorable weather and good health to him and his people. Emperor Wudi of

the Han Dynasty directed special attention to this event. In 104 BC, he

proclaimed it as one of the most important celebrations and the ceremony would

last throughout the night. They clean it all up in the morning.

Another legend associates the Lantern Festival with Taoism. Tianguan is the

Taoist god responsible for good fortune. His birthday falls on the 15th day of

the first lunar month. It is said that Tianguan likes all types of

entertainment, so followers prepare various kinds of activities during which

they pray for good fortune.

Yet another common legend dealing with the origins of the Lantern Festival

speaks of a beautiful bird that flew down to earth from heaven, which was hunted

and killed by some villagers. This angered the Jade Emperor in Heaven because

the bird was his favorite one. Therefore, he planned a storm of fire to destroy

the village on the 15th lunar day. The Jade Emperors daughter heard of this

plan, and warned the villagers of her father’s plan to destroy their village.

The village was in turmoil because nobody knew how should they escape their

imminent destruction.

However, a wise man from another village suggested that every family should

hang red lanterns around their houses, set up bonfires on the streets, and

explode firecrackers on the 14th, 15th, and 16th lunar days. This would give the

village the appearance of being on fire to the Jade Emperor. On the 15th lunar

day, troops sent down from heaven whose mission was to destroy the village saw

that the village was already ablaze, and returned to heaven to report to the

Jade Emperor. Satisfied, the Jade Emperor decided not to burn down the village.

From that day on, people celebrate the anniversary on the 15th lunar day every

year by carrying red lanterns on the streets and exploding firecrackers and

fireworks.

There are many stories on how this festival was created. One other story is

about a maid. In the Han Dynasty, Mr. Eastern was a favorite advisor of the

emperor. One winter day, he went to the garden and heard a little girl crying

and getting ready to jump into a well to commit suicide. Mr. Eastern stopped her

and asked why. She said she was a maid in the emperors palace and her name was

Yuan-Xiao.

She never had the chance to meet her family after she started worked at the

palace. She missed them so much every 12th lunar month. If she couldnt have the

chance to show her filial piety in this life, she would rather die. Mr. Eastern

promised her to find a way so she could reunion with her family. Mr. Eastern

left the palace and set up a fortune-telling stall on the street and disguised

himself as a fortuneteller. Because of his reputation, many people asked for

their fortunes.

But every one got the same prediction - a severe fire accident on the 15th

lunar day. The rumor spread quickly. Everyone was worried about the future and

asked Mr. Eastern for help. Mr. Eastern said, "On the 13th lunar day, the God of

Fire will send a fairy lady in red to burn down the city. If you see a lady in

red wearing green pants riding a black horse on that day, you should ask for her

mercy." On that day, Yuan-Xiao pretended to be the red fairy lady. When people

asked for her help, she said, "Im the messenger of the God of Fire and came to

check on the city and Im going to set up fire on 15th. This is an order from

Jade Emperor. He will watch from the heavens.

I will give you a copy of the imperial decree from the God of Fire. You

should go to ask your emperor to find a way out." After she left, people went to

the palace to show the emperor the decree which reads "The capital city is in

trouble. Fire burns on the palace, and fire from Heaven burns all night long on

the 15th." The emperor of Han Dynasty was very shocked. He called and asked Mr.

Eastern for advice. After pondering for a while, Mr. Eastern said, "I heard that

the God of Fire likes to eat Tang-Yuan (Sweet dumpling). Does Yuan-Xiao often

cook Tang-Yuan for you? On the 15th lunar day, let Yuan-Xiao make Tang-Yuan.

Your Majesty will take charge of the worshipping ceremony and you will give

an order to every house to prepare Tang-Yuan to worship the God of Fire at the

same time. Also, deliver another order to ask every house in the city to hang

red lantern and explode fire crackers. Lastly, everyone in the palace and people

outside the city should carry their lanterns on the street to watch the lantern

decoration and fireworks. If everything goes this way, the Jade Emperor would be

deceived.

Then everyone can avoid the fire accident." The emperor happily followed

the plan. Lanterns were everywhere in the capital city on the night of the 15th

lunar day. People were walking on the street. Fire crackers kept making lots of

noise. It looked like the entire city was on fire. Yuan-Xiaos parents went into

the palace to watch the lantern decorations, and Yuan-Xiao made a big lantern

and wrote her name on the lantern. They happily reunited together after her

parents called her name. Everybody was safe during the night. The emperor of Han

Dynasty had a new order that people should do the same thing every year. Since

Yuan-Xiao cooked the best Tan-Yuan, people called the day Yuan-Xiao

Festival.

Young people were chaperoned in the streets in hopes of finding love.

Matchmakers acted busily in hopes of pairing couples. The brightest lanterns

were symbolic of good luck and hope. As time has passed, the festival no longer

has such implications.

Those who do not carry lanterns often enjoy watching informal lantern

parades. In addition to eating tangyuan (simplified Chinese: 汤圆; traditional

Chinese: 湯圓; pinyin: tāngyuán), another popular activity at this festival is

guessing lantern riddles (which became part of the festival during the Tang

Dynasty), which often contain messages of good fortune, family reunion, abundant

harvest, prosperity and love.

Today, many young people are crazy about their idols.

Many years ago, in

order to see the idol, a girl made her father threaten the star, finally, the

father dropped down the river and ended his life. It is such a horrible

incident, the public criticizes the girl for her blindness in worshipping star.

Many students even skip their class, just to see their idols in the airport.

What’s more, they spend a lot of money to buy the products about their idols.

The students don’t have money, they ask their parents to give the money, it is

not right to do it. The young people should treat the stars in the right way,

they need to figure what is right and wrong. If they follow their stars in the

wrong way, they will ruin themselves. So people need to support their stars in

the wise way.

Some people like to work alone while others enjoy teamwork. In my opinion,

everyone had better learn to work with others together because teamwork is

definitely necessary and important in modern society.

First, working in a team provides a chance for us to communicate with each

other. Just as the saying goes, “many hands make light job.” Working in a team,

teammates share their ideas with each other, which is helpful to create a better

achievement. Second, working in a team is a way to broaden our horizon.

Teammates in a team can learn something from each other because they are from

different places, owning various experiences and hold different views towards

things. Therefore, getting along with other teammates is also a process of

increasing our knowledge. Finally, working in a team is also a way to establish

our friendship. Teammates in a team have chances to help each other, to solve

the problems together, to share the happiness of being successful, which make a

great contribution to establishing friendship. Thus, working in a team is one of

the most effective ways to extend our personal relationships.

To sum up, to learn to work in a team is really necessary and important and

we should try to enjoy it.

导语：每个人都有自己的妈妈，你喜欢你的妈妈吗?下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的优秀英语作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

My mother has no idea that her ninetieth birthday is coming up. She has no notion of the time of day, the day of the week. the season of the year, the year of the century. No notion of the approaching millennium. And no idea any longer, who I am. Her forgetting of me happened just a few months ago, after I had been traveling for more than a month and hadnt been to see her. When I came back, she asked me if I were her niece, l said no, I was her daughter. "Does that mean I had you?" she asked. 1 said yes. "Where was I when l had you?" she asked me. I told her she was in a hospital in Far Rockaway. New York. "So much has happened to me in my life." she said "You cant expect me to remember everything."

My mother was once a beautiful woman, but all her teeth are gone now. Toothless. No woman can be considered beautiful. Whenever I visit her in the nursing home, she is sitting at the table in the common dining room, her head in her hands, rocking. Medication has eased her anxiety, but nothing moves her from her stupor except occasional moments of fear, too deep for medication. This is a room that has no windows, that lets in no light, in which an overlarge TV is constantly blaring, sending images that no one looks at where the floors are beige tiles, the walls cream colored at the bottom, papered halfway up with a pattern of nearly invisible grayish leaves. Many of the residents sit staring, slack-jawed, open mouthed. I find it impossible to imagine what they might be looking at.

When I walk into the dining room on the day of my mothers birthday, I see that she has already been served lunch. The staff has forgotten to hold it back. Though I told them a week ago that I would be providing lunch. She hasn’t touched anything on her tray except a piece of carrot cake, which she holds in her hands. The icing is smeared on her hands and face. I dont want my friends to see her smeared with icing, so I wet a paper towel and wipe her. This fills me with a terrible tenderness, recalling, as it does. a gesture I have performed for my children. As I wipe my mothers face, I see that her skin is still beautiful I hold her chin in my hand and kiss her forehead. I tell her its her birthday, that shes ninety years old. "How did that happen?" she asks. "I cant understand how that could happen."

l have brought her a bouquet of crimson, yellow, and salmon-pink snapdragons. She likes the flowers very much. She likes the name. "Snapdragons. It seems like an animal thats going to bite inc. But its not an animal, its a plant. Thats a funny thing,"

I have bought food that I hope will please my mother, and that will be easy for her to eat: orzo salad with little pieces of crayfish cut into it, potato salad, small chunks of marinated tomatoes. I have bought paper plates with a rust-colored background, upon which are painted yellow and gold flowers and blue leaves.

My friends Nola and Gary come for my mothers birthday. When we are about to leave, I tell my mother that Im going on vacation, mat I wont see her for three weeks, that 1 am going to the sea. "How will I stand that, how will I stand thats she says, but I know that a minute after I’m gone shell forget I was there.

today is the first day of my senior high school life ...

With the development ofscience and technology ,different kinds of pollution has been produced andcaused global concern recently.

As we know, people have beenliving on the earth for thousands of years, human activity damaged natural environment, such as excessive abuse of natural resources ,the sewage dischargedfrom factories ,the animal slaughter ,kinds of chemical fertilizers andgreen-house effect. All that is mentioned above has a bad impact on the eco-system .Now, many animals aredying out. We are suffering from unhealthy food and water, we are faced withharmful rays and global warming. It was ourselves who had made a series oftroubles. As you can see, we are the final victim.

Above all, if we human beings cannot recognize theseserious problems and try our best to solve them soon, we would finally lose theenvironment suitable for us to live. So, it is our duty to protect theenvironment ,but what should we do to protect it?

In my opinion, the first and important thing is tounite all forces ,that is to say---gather all hearts together. Next we shouldprotect and plant more trees, which can dispose of the dust in the air. As forfamilies, it is effective to ride bicycles rather than drive cars. Don’t litteranywhere as you like. In addition, sorting and recycling the rubbish also playan essential role in the protection of our earth. We’d better call on everyone aroundus to lead a low-carbon life, as it may make a difference to the environment.

Thus, it’s high time that we did something to improveour surroundings. Everybody should raise the awareness to protect our motherearth. Let’s appeal to more people to join us.

All in all ,there’s no doubt that keeping the balanceof human and nature ,we will benefit a lot.

It is the Lantern Festival. My grandfather, grandmother and father are all in shanxi. There are only my mother, my aunt, my sister and me. My mother and aunt are looking at the computer. I teach my sister to skateboard.

First, I asked my sister to step on the skateboard with her left foot and gently push her right foot to jump. But she jumped several times and couldnt jump. So I asked her to stand on a skateboard with her right foot on the board. But she could not walk two steps and fell, but she fell several times without losing heart. Once, when she slipped more than two meters, I was happy to give her a hand. She was also a brave and persistent person. My sister jumped up too.

This day, although my grandpa, grandma, and father are not at home, but this Lantern Festival I have a very happy!
