英语作文 篇1

atmospheric pressure can support a column of water up to 10 meters high. but plants can move water much higher; the sequoia tree can pump water to its very top more than 100 meters above the ground. until the end of the nineteenth century, the movement of water in trees and other tall plants was a mystery. some botanists hypothesized that the living cells of plants acted as pumps. but many eperiments demonstrated that the stems of plants in which all the cells are killed can still move water to appreciable heights. other eplanations for the movement of water in plants have been based on root pressure, a push on the water from the roots at the bottom of the plant. but root pressure is not nearly great enough to push water to the tops of tall trees. furthermore, the conifers, which are among the tallest trees, have unusually low root pressures.

if water is not pumped to the top of a tall tree, and if it is not pushed to the top of a tall tree, then we may ask: how does it get there? according to the currently accepted cohesion-tension theory, water is pulled there. the pull on a rising column of water in a plant results from the evaporation of water at the top of the plant. as water is lost from the surface of the leaves, a negative pressure, or tension, is created. the evaporated water is replaced by water moving from inside the plant in unbroken columns that etend from the top of a plant to its roots. the same forces that create surface tension in any sample of water are responsible for the maintenance of these unbroken columns of water. when water is confined in tubes of very small bore, the forces of cohesion (the attraction between water molecules) are so great that the strength of a column of water compares with the strength of a steel wire of the same diameter. this cohesive strength permits columns of water to be pulled to great heights without being broken.

英语作文 篇4

Spring Festival is the most important and exciting festival in China. I had a very nice winter holiday this year.

On New Year’s Eve, when I was standing by the window, watching the skyrockets, I made a wish. I hoped that I would do everything well in the new year.

I went to Wolf Hill in Nantong with my family on the first day of the new year. Wolf Hill is not very high, but it is very beautiful. It is covered with all kinds of green trees. We took a cable car to go up to the hill. And as we were climbing up, we heard a beautiful piece of music coming from the temple. After we came into the temple, we saw a figure of Buddha. There were quite a lot of people there. We each made a wish, and then burned joss sticks. We all hoped our dreams will come true . What a wonderful day I spent!

Pleasant time always goes fast . This winter holiday has gone . I will go back to school and study again, but I think I will never forget the happy winter holiday forever.

It rises in four headstreams (the Thames or Isis,Churn,Coln,and Leach) in the Cotswold Hills,E Gloucestershire,and flows generally eastward across S England and through London to the North Sea at The Nore.In its upper course—around and above Oxford—it is often called Isis.The Thames drains c.5,250 sq mi (13,600 sq km); its tributaries include the Windrush,Cherwell,Thame,Kennet,Wey,Mole,Lea,Roding,and Medway.It is joined by canals (including the Oxford,Thames and Severn,and Grand Junction) that cover a wide area.The river is navigable by barges to Lechlade,below which there are a number of locks.The Thames is tidal to Teddington; there is a 23-ft (7-m) difference between low and high tide at London Bridge.

The part of the stream near London Bridge is known as the Pool.The main part of the port of London stretches from London Bridge to Blackwall.The Thames Conservancy Board was established in 1857; the docks and the tidal part of the river below Teddington have been administered by the Port of London Authority since 1908.Part of the river is of great beauty,is much used for boating,and is still popular for fishing.The upper valley of the Thames is a broad,flat basin of alluvial clay soil,through which the river winds and turns constantly in all directions.At Goring Gap the valley narrows,separating the Chiltern Hills from the Berkshire Downs.The lower valley forms a second broad basin through which the Thames also meanders.The land around the river was formerly marshy,and the ancient roads were far from the river banks.In the Middle Ages the valley was very prosperous,with many religious houses and several large towns,including Reading and Windsor.

Between Oxford and London,the valley is predominantly agricultural,with scattered villages; Reading is the only industrial town there.The Greater London conurbation along the river's lower course is one of the most important industrial regions of Great Britain.Among the many interesting archaeological discoveries made in the valley are fossils of seashells and a human skull from the Paleolithic period.In London the river is crossed by 27 bridges,including the new London Bridge,Westminster Bridge,Waterloo Bridge,and Tower Bridge.There are two main tunnels under the river in London,and one between Dartford and Purfleet,as well as several footpaths and 5 railroad tunnels.In 1963 governmental efforts began to combat pollution of the waters through a series of rules and regulations.At parts along the river downstream flood barriers were constructed,which became operational in 1982,to prevent London from damage by North Sea gales.

英语作文 篇6

Everyone has seen the moon, the Mid-Autumn moon is more round and kinder, like a cute little doll.

After watching CCTV news broadcast, the whole family walked out of the house to admire the moon. How bright the moon is tonight! People's square was cheering. The round, round moon's face is like my lovely little sister. The moon saw a lot of people looking at her, hiding herself slowly behind her mother like a baby doll. The mother saw it and said, "don't be shy. Go out and play. There are so many kids waiting for you." Moon doll after cloud mother's repeated persuasion, finally his head out from behind the cloud mother bit by bit, happy smiling face, so naive, so lovely. We

cheered again! But the moon doll was shy again, and half of the face was hidden behind the cloud.

I looked anxiously, eagerly, eagerly, eagerly... After a long time, it was 10:30 at night, and the moon was strangely shy like a doll, hiding behind the cloud and not coming out!

After a while, the breeze came, and the mother moved north. Finally, the moon doll looked bravely at us, revealing her chubby, round, smiling face. The moon doll walked in the dark blue sky, bringing light to the people of the moon.

每个人都看见过月亮，中秋的月亮更圆更亲切，像一个可爱的小娃娃。

看完央视新闻联播，全家人走出家门赏月。今晚的月亮多明亮啊!市民广场一片欢呼。圆圆的，圆圆的月亮的脸，像极了我可爱的小妹妹。月亮看见很多人看她，像小娃娃一样害羞地把身子慢慢地藏到云妈妈身后。云妈妈看见了，说：“不要害羞，你出去玩一下吧，还有好多小朋友在望着你等着你。”月亮娃娃经过云妈妈的再三劝说，终于一点一点地从云妈妈身后探出头来，露出欢喜的笑脸，那么天真，那么可爱。我们又欢呼起来!谁知，在我们的'欢呼声中，月亮娃娃又害羞了，半边脸儿露出来，半边脸儿又隐藏在云妈妈身后。

我焦急地望啊望，盼啊盼……过了很久很久，已是深夜十点半了，奇怪的是月亮还像娃娃一样害羞，躲在云妈妈身后不肯出来呢!

又过了一会儿，微风吹来，云妈妈向北移了移身子。终于，月亮娃娃勇敢地望着我们，完全露出了她那胖乎乎、圆都都、笑眯眯的脸蛋儿。月亮娃娃散步在深蓝深蓝的夜空，给赏月的人们带来了光明。

英语作文 篇7

Which is more important, wealth or health? Different people have different opinions. Some people prefer wealth, holding that money can not bring everything, but without it, one can do nothing. In order to accumulate more money they can do anything. However, other people regard health as more important. Once health is lost, it is no use having a lot of money.

As far as I am concerned, I love wealth, but I value health more. Everybody wants to live a happy life. So they try their best to earn money which can ensure they lead a comfortable life, but if happiness and comfort are achieved at the cost of their health, how can they be happy? Without health money becomes meaningless. In my opinion, no one agrees that a wealthy person without good health can be happy. So, just do our best to keep healthy.

英语作文 篇8

In some small countries, people are very superstitious, they believe in the supernatural incidents and even some can be explained in the scientific way. Today, the government takes some actions to limit the topic of TV series, so as to educate people not to believe in ghost. Actually, some people are very stubborn to change their attitude towards the long term impression. Though they are superstitious, they know bad guys will be hunted by ghost, so they are not dared to do something bad and follow the rules all the time. Superstitious people have their judgement about justice, because they have their faith. I think it is good for them. If they don’t do the extreme thing, we should not blame them. While for better educate the young generation, scientific ways are advocated. We can change people’s mind from generation to generation. 在一些小乡村有些人非常迷信，即使可以科学的方式来解释，他们仍然相信超自然的事件。如今，政府采取措施去限制电视剧的主题，以教育人们不要相信鬼魂的存在。实际上，有些人很固执，难以改变他们的.长期观念。虽然他们是迷信的，但是他们相信坏人会被恶鬼缠身，所以他们不敢做坏事，遵守法律法规。迷信的人，他们对正义也是有判断力的，因为他们有自己的信仰，我觉得这对他们有好处。如果他们不做极端的事情，我们不应该责怪他们。然而为了更好的教育年轻一代，我们应该宣传科学。我们可以在一代代中改变大家的看法。

英语作文 篇9

说明：在这部分，你有30分钟的时间写一篇题为“快餐”的短文。你应按照以下中文大纲至少写150个字：

1、快餐在中国十分流行，它是现代快节奏社会的最佳反应，并分析快餐受欢迎的原因；

2、然而，从营养角度来讲，快餐却差强人意；

3、对快餐还是以偶尔品尝为宜。

快餐

在当今的中国，快餐非常受欢迎，尤其是在儿童和青少年中，以至于在每一个大中城市都能看到它。甚至很难想象还有什么东西能代表现代社会的快速发展，就像快餐一样。有些人认为它非常方便，节省了很多时间。现代社会的发展趋势似乎都指向了一个终极目标-节省时间，而快餐正是为了这个目的服务的。在他们看来，它的流行也归功于餐厅干净舒适的'环境，优良的服务，保证了食物和饮料的质量。

However, others maintain that fast food is usually low in nutrition and can’t be regarded as a balanced diet. For example, doctors suggest that people, especially children, eat fast food as little as possible. Besides, although cooking at home is time-consuming and the following washing-up tiresome, it offers healthy and delicious meals your body needs and likes.

As far as I’m concerned, fast food is not my best choice. For one thing, I prefer traditional spicy Chinese food. For another, being engaged in the work all day, I may spend one or two hours to prepare my favorite dishes to ensure myself a nice rest. As a result, fast food is only a good choice when I am in a hurry and resort to it once in a while.

A Letter to Tom

Dear Tom,

How are you?

I would like to tell you something that took place in my school yesterday. In the afternoon the school held a growing-up ceremony for our coming 18-year-old birthday. At the beginning we made an oath that as grown-ups we should have a sense of responsibility for our society. Next we expressed our thands to our parents who brought us up and to our teachers for their education. Then our teachers gave us cards with good wishes. Finally, we had wonderful performances. I learned a lot from the activity. I am sure the ceremony is very important for us. From then on we will know our responsibilities as grown-ups.

Yours,

Li Hua
