英语作文 篇1
People always talk about the race of a rabit and a turtle. What we know is that the winner is turtle enventually since we are at our childhood. Because our parents and teachers told us that the rabit loses the game as the rabit believes him to be the winner whatever happens. Terefore, he is going to sleep during the race. After all this teaches us a lesson that we should not be arrogant and complacent, and do things in conmitment.
However, nowadays, things are changed dramatically. This time the rabit loses the race again even he is concentrated on the game from very beginning. He doesn't expect that the turtle takes a pair of skateboots to run the race. This time we learn a new lesson :only innovation and new technology win.

1. Travel has become a world-wide activity.

3. Travel is also one of the best means for learning.
Travel
Travel has become a world-wide activity. Never before have so many people travelled to so many different parts of the world. With new modes of fast and comfortable transport,
more and more people are tempted to leave their homes to see more of the world.
People travel for many reasons but perhaps the most common is travelling for pleasure. It provides an effective way to get your mind off your work. When you return, you are fresh and energetic and ready to work harder.
Travel is also one of the best means for learning. One may have heard or read about something, but one can never get an accurate picture of it until one sees it. I believe that the knowledge obtained from actual experience is more valuable than that obtained from books.

Five Balls in the Air
Image life as a game in which you are throwing some five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit,and you're keeping all these balls in the air.
You understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be certainly scuffed, marked,nicked, damaged or even smashed. They will never be the same. You must understand that and struggle for balance in
your life. How?
Don't lower your worth by comparing yourself to others. It is because we are different that each of us is special. Don't set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you. Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as you would to life, for without them, it's meaningless. Don't let life slip through your fingers by living in the past or in the future. By living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life. Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been,but also where you' re going. Don't use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved. Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way. Yesterday is history,tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift. That's why we call
it--The Present.
英语作文 篇5
Something about my hometown-Chengdu
Hello, everyone, today , I’d like to say something about my hometown ,
Chengdu and I sincerely(真诚的) welcome you all to come here and have a nice time .
Chengdu,the capital of Sichuan Province,lies in the eastern hinterland(内陆) of the Chengdu Plain, in central Sichuan.Covering a total land area of 12,400 square
kilometers,Chengdu is divided into nine districts(区), four cities and six counties(县). By the end of 20xx,the population of Chengdu had reached 10.6 million.This is the basic information you can get to know the moment you get to Chengdu .But what interests us most is the climate(气候), the history and also the life of Chengdu
people .As for the climate , I want to say an idiom(习语) called ShuQuanFeiRi(蜀犬吠日)which means dogs in Chengdu bark(狗叫) at the sun when the sun comes out. This is because the weather here is always cloudy and wet and people as well as animals here seldom see the sun all year. Based on this(基于此) , the skins(皮肤) of girls here are pretty good . So here comes the joke :if you go to Shenzhen, you will find you are short of money ; if you go to Beijing , you will find your Official position is too low;but if you go to Chengdu , you will find you get married too early . All
these means girls here are very pretty as a result of the climate here.(如果你去深圳,你会发现钱太少,去北京,官太小,来成都,你会觉得结婚太早)
Secondly ,Chengdu has a long history of more than 3000 years and also is the city whose name hasn’t been changed for a single time in history since it was built as a city .It is said that Kaiming IX,king of ancient Shu in the Zhou Dynasty (11th
century,about 611BC),started to set up the capital in Chengdu. The name of Chengdu came from the story of The West-Zhou dynasty. The story reads “A town was built in a area in the first year and it will become the capital in three years,so the ancestors named the city as Chengdu, which implied their hope for this city to become a capital.西周建都的历史经过,取周王迁岐“一年而所居成聚,二年成邑,三年成都”因此得名成都。
Later on,Chengdu gradually became one of the most important centers of politics, economy and culture in China. As early as in the Han Dynasty
(206BC-220AD)),Chengdu began to enjoy the fame of being one of the Top Five Capitals.As a capital , What familiarizes us most is the period of Three Kingdom(三国时期)。Now, we can still feel the air and culture of that time at our famous scenic spot ——Wuhou Thatched Cottage.The history of Chengdu is just like the Milky
Way full of stars which is innumerable.If you want to know more ,come here and have a visit.
Next , I want to say something about the life of Chengdu .And I think one
sentence can describe such kind of life. That is , making tea while waiting for the flowers to come out(泡茶等花开)。This shows the life rhythm—slow ,relaxing and optimistic. Here we can see some examples. First , everywhere you go , you can find tea houses ,the number of which must be more than that of any other places . People like to go there , chatting about whatever they like . Second is Mahjong. It is said that if you fly over the Chengdu Plain , you can hear the sound of playing mahjong.
毛)about Chengdu .Chengdu has a lot for you to savor(品味) it. Just come here and enjoy yourselves.

快餐在中国越来越流行,尤其在小孩子,年轻人和白领这些人群中。
There are several reasons for its popularity. First, it's so convenient that saves a lot of time. Your just need to go into a fast-food restaurant, order your food, and your food is ready in time. Second, you can have many choices, various collocations of food. And you can eat it there or take it away. Third, the environment of fast-food restaurants is both clean and comfortable.

However, in terns of nutrition, it is usually not a balanced diet and low in nutritional value. Usually, fast-food is rich in sugar, so that regularly eat fast-food may cause obesity.
然而,从营养方面讲,快餐没有提供平衡的'饮食,营养价值也很低。通常,快餐都是高糖的,所以经常吃快餐会导致肥胖。
Fast-food is only a good choice when you are in a hurry and turn to it once in a while. But for people, especially children, eat fast-food as little as possible.
当你时间比较赶时,偶尔吃一次快餐,还是不错的选择。但人们还是得尽量少吃,尤其是孩子。
