love your life
热爱生活
henry david thoreau/享利.大卫.梭罗
however mean your life is,meet it and live it;do not shun it and call it hard names.it is not so bad as you are.it looks poorest when you are richest.the fault-finder will find faults in paradise.love your life,poor as it is.you may perhaps have some pleasant,thrilling,glorious hourss,even in a poor-house.the setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man’s abode;the snow melts before its door as early in the spring.i do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there,and have as cheering thoughts,as in a palace.the town’s poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any.may be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving.most think that they are above being supported by the town;but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means.which should be more disreputable.cultivate poverty like a garden herb,like sage.do not trouble yourself much to get new things,whether clothes or friends,turn the old,return to them.things do not change;we change.sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.不论你的生活如何卑贱,你要面对它生活,不要躲避它,更别用恶言咒骂它。它不像你那样坏。你最富有的时候,倒是看似最穷。爱找缺点的人就是到天堂里也能找到缺点。你要爱你的生活,尽管它贫穷。甚至在一个济贫院里,你也还有愉快、高兴、光荣的时候。夕阳反射在济贫院的窗上,像身在富户人家窗上一样光亮;在那门前,积雪同在早春融化。我只看到,一个从容的人,在哪里也像在皇宫中一样,生活得心满意足而富有愉快的思想。城镇中的穷人,我看,倒往往是过着最独立不羁的生活。也许因为他们很伟大,所以受之无愧。大多数人以为他们是超然的,不靠城镇来支援他们;可是事实上他们是往往利用了不正当的手段来对付生活,他们是毫不超脱的,毋宁是不体面的。视贫穷如园中之花而像圣人一样耕植它吧!不要找新的花样,无论是新的朋友或新的衣服,来麻烦你自己。找旧的,回到那里去。万物不变,是我们在变。你的衣服可以卖掉,但要保留你的思想。
第三篇:英语小文章
翻译:
Almost as soon as rescue workers began searching through at the sites of the Sept.11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center, many Americans started another search--not quite as desperate, perhaps, but important nonetheless.Citizens looked for information about the places the killers came from and the ideas and beliefs that could drive men to lay down their lives for the chance to kill ordinary American office workers.Foreign reporters with expertise in the Middle East say their phones have been ringing off the hook, and in fact every newspaper in every town across the nation has run a variation on two basic stories: What is Islam? and Why Do They Hate Us? Adding to the shock of thousands of violent deaths was the confusing information that the people who so passionately want us dead belong to nations and groups that many Americans had never even heard of.“9.11”恐怖分子袭击之后, 几乎世贸中心现场的搜寻营救行动一开始,许多美国人在发起另一种搜寻---也许不那么迫不及待,但是,也是十分重要的。公民们搜集那些恐怖杀手来历的信息,以及驱使他们以生命为代价去屠杀美国平民的思想和信仰。专门从事在中东采访的外国记者说,他们的电话一直占线,几乎全国各地的各家报纸都在刊登不同版本的两个基本故事:即“什么是伊斯兰教?”“他们为什么恨我们?”数千人惨死的噩耗令人震惊之余,还有令人不解的信息。原来,那些急着想让我们死的人们属于许多美国人从来没听说过的国家和群体。
Part VI Writing(30 minutes, 15 points)Directions: You are asked to write in above 120 words about the title of Jobs For Life?.You should base your composition on the outline given in Chinese below: 1.终身职业的好处。2.终身职业的坏处。3.你的意见。
Should Employers Offer Jobs For Life? There are many advantages and disadvantages to offering employees job security for life.The advantage for the employee is that, job security is the base on which he plans his future accordingly.For the employer, the employee represents an investment because of the number of hours of training required and the company will continue to have a return on this investment.As we all know, feeling secure about where our future income will come from is very important for our well-being.Its disadvantage lies in the tendency to decreased productivity.In general, employees who are certain that they can never lose their jobs tend to work less efficiently, thereby contributing to an overall reduction of productivity in the company.For instance, it is common to walk into a government office and see employees filing their nails, making personal calls on the telephone, taking three-hour lunches, or surfing the Internet for fun.In short, I disagree that companies should offer their employees jobs for life.It is an outmoded way of conducting siness.

(A)There are big “back-to-school” sales(开学大甩卖)everywhere because the new term begins.Many school students need new clothes for the new school term.I'm not a new student, but I need a new pair of red shoes.My old shoes are too small.They're usually $60, but in the sale they're 10% off, so they're $54 now.That's good!Maybe I'll buy a pair of white shoes, too.And I want one new white T-shirts.It is $36.How much are socks?

Firhall is a small place in Scotland.It is an interesting place for us to travel because of two reasons.First, it is really a beautiful and quiet place.Second, it is a place that has too many rules.Firhall isn't a city.It is only a village.There are a lot of birds and trees there.You can also do many sports, like volleyball, basketball and golf.But children don't like this place.They call it “child-hating ogres”.That is because of the rules in the village.People can't have animals in their homes and each family can only have one dog.People in this village must be over forty-five years old.If grandchildren visit their grandparents, they can't stay for long.Now, things are getting better.Grandchildren are welcome to live.And if you are under forty-five years old, you can also live here.People only want to have a quiet place to live in.Most old people like this kind of quiet place.

Internet
Everything lives with opposite forces.The same can be said about modern technology, such as Internet.At first glance Internet offers us excitement and a worl of promise.Frankly speaking, people who have some ideas of it can not deny the merits born with the system.For instance,it can improve proficiency in scientific research, for by means of it scientists and researchers can get a global look at the latest development in the field concerned and accordingly they need spend no time doing what has already been done.In view of personal communication, the most convenient means could be peculiar to Internet, too.While people speak highly of Internet,its drawbacks shouldn't be neglected.Sometimes, alittle fatal breakdown of the system, or a disastrous error could bring us an enormous amount of damage an。Meanwhile, with lnternet's replacement of hooks or the written work as the main source of information, human's writing abilities are weakened and relations between people are desalinated.However, every country on this planet should work hard to

因特网
任何事情的存在都有负面影响。可以说科技也是如此,例如网络。初看起来,网络带给我们兴奋的一个有前途的世界。坦白地讲,既使对此有些想法的人也不能否认网络与生俱来的优点。举个例子,它可提高科研效率,因为科学家们观察它们借此能够获得对相关领域最新发展的全面了解。并且他们无需费时做已做过的事情。对于个人交流沟通,最便捷的方式恐怕也是网络。
当人们高度评价网络时;应忽视它的缺欠。有时系统小有一点致命的故障或一点灾难性的错误都会带来巨大的损失。同时随着作为主要信息来源的各种书籍和书写工作逐渐被网络替代,人类的写作能力变弱,而且人与人之间的关系也淡漠了。
尽管如此,这个星球上的每个国家都应努力发展这个网络系统以便更高效服务于人类。因为在网上,所有的国家都是相互联系的。
人类生存Man Is to Survive
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition about: Man Is to Survive.You should base your writing on the following outline:
1.人类面临的问题(如能源、疾病、污染、人口等);
2.悲观的看法(如人类将无法生存);
3.人类的智慧和出路。
Your composition should be no less than 120 words.Be sure to write your composition in readable handwriting.Man Is to Survive
Man is finding himself confronted with more and more problems which threaten his existence on this planet.For example, some resources are beginning to be exhausted.Many diseases are getting difficult to be cured.Various kinds of pollution are becoming worse and worse.Moreover, population explosion is always on the rise...Therefore, there comes the problem: will man survive these problems?
Faced with,so many problems, pessimists hold that man is destined to die out.Their reasons are as follows.With population explosion, food will be scarce;space will shrink;resources will be used up.Moreover, pollution will threaten our health;
incurable diseases will endanger our lives...Obviously, man has only one way out——complete destruction.Admittedly, these people have their reasons to think in this way, but I don't think they are altogether right.I believe that man is bound to overcome these difficulties and survive a into the future because man is endowed with wisdom.With this wisdom, he came up with solutions to problems he came across in the past.With this wisdom, he will surely work out solutions to the problems which will arise in the future.学生求职为何难?
Why It Is Difficult ron College Students to Find Jobs?(大学生求职为何难?)
1.描述现状;
2.分析原因;
3.给出办法。
[写作导航]先陈述现实,即虽然从理论上讲不应如此,但大学生找工作确实很难;第二段分析原因,一方面来自大学生自身,如有些人不能溶入社会,目标过高等,另一方面是所学专业过窄,难以找到合适的工作;第三段给出“我”的观点:大学生应了解自己的长处和短处,不要太看重物质利益,而是要着眼于长远发展,另外还要注意继续深造。
[范文]
More and more college students, in recent years, are finding it difficult to find jobs.This may sound strange since college students used to be the “most favored” people in society.They have received a higher education, hence they are more intelligent, knowledgeable than their counterparts who failed to attend college.But chances are that some of them
can hardly find jobs after graduating from colleges.There are two reasons that account for this strange phenomenon.One is that some college students cannot come to terms with themselves and with the world around them.They pursue too high goals and are too particular about such factors as working conditions, salary, and so on.Therefore, they are reluctant to accept the job when they are offered to them.Another reason is that the majors some students pursue do not match with the demands of the job market.As a result, they canonly sit and miss opportunities.To solve this problem, I think college students should know their own strengths and weaknesses and have the right attitude towards themselves and the job vacancies.In addition, they should not attach too much importance to material aspects of the job.They
should put priority to their future development and their contributions to society in stead.Furthermore, they should think of receiving some further training to meet the demands of society.课外活动之我见
My Views on Extracurricular Activity(课外活动之我见)
1.有些学生热衷于课外活动;
2.有些学生从不参加课外活动;
3.我的观点。
[写作导航]第一段先指出,积极参加课外活动的同学对课外活动的看法是积极的;第二段再写不积极参加课外活动的同学的看法;第三段陈述我的看法,可分别从大学生活的性质、书本知识与课外实践以及广交朋友等方面论述积极参加课外活动的好处。
[范文]
Some students like to participate actively in after class activities.They think after class activities are an integral part of school life.By going in for such activities, they can learn what they can't learn from books, which will be beneficial to them in the future.Others, however, don't like after class activities at all.They think that a student's work at school is learning theoretical knowledge and nothing else.Taking part in after class activities is a waste of the valuable time at school.In my opinion, every student should engage in some after class activities because from these activities we can learn many valuable things that we won't learn in classrooms.School is not just a place for learning the difference between “lie” or “lay”, or what caused the hours of the daily schedule.Finally, after class activities broaden our circle of acquaintances.No amount of ordinary school work can take the place of friends acquired in the informal familiarities of activities.分数之我见-My Ideas on Soores
My Ideas on Soores(分数之我见)
1.有人认为分数重要;
2.有人认为分数不重要;
3.我的看法。
[写作导航]第一段从不同的人对分数有不同的看法引入主题,然后分述这些看法。有人认为分数是衡量学生掌握知识程度的唯一标准,分数还可决定一个学生是否可以上大学、读研究生,甚至是否被工作单位录用;而有些人则认为分数高的学生不一定工作能力强,实际能力更重要。最后给出“我”的看法,即在我看来,两种看法都有片面性,其实两者缺一不可。
[范文]
People's ideas on scores vary from person to person.Some think that scores are very important.They think in this way because scores have always been the only means to tell whether a student has a good command of the subject they have learned.To illustrate, they say scores are often used to determine whether a student should go to college or not.Scores are also used to decide whether he can further his study after graduation.Scores are still used to decide whether he can get a job in the job market.Others, on the other hand, holdthat scores are not so important as practical knowledge.They suggest that students with high scores at school are not necessarily competent in their work after graduation.Our society does not need those who can perform very well in examinations;instead, it needs those with practical skills.I think both of the above views have their limitations.Having lots of theoretical knowledge without enough practical skills is no good, nor is having lots of practical skills without enough theoretical knowledge.Only when we have a combination of both, can we be called qualified students of new China.学生评价老师
Students' Rating of Their Teachers(学生评价老师)
1.学生给老师打分已很普遍;
2.人们对其持不同态度;
3.我的看法
[写作导航]第一段宜写高校改革所带来的变化使得学生评价教师很普遍,在有些高校学生的评价甚至成为教师教学好坏的惟一尺度;第二段应写对这一做法,人们有不同的看法,有人赞成,认为学生最有发言权,而有人则反对,认为学生不具备评价教师的素质,对诸如教学材料、教师业务水平等的评价应由教师的同事来完成;第三段写我的看法,我认为,学生评价教师有必要,但要切实做到对教师的教学有帮助,例如可让学生评价在某门课上所学到的知识如何,兴趣如何等等。
[范文]
A great change is now taking place in higher education throughout our country.Teachers are being held responsible as never before for how well they serve their students.It has become as common in colleges and universities for students to grade teachers as for teachers to grade students.In some universities students' rating has even become the only source of information on teaching effectiveness.This, however, has caused great controversy.Some are in favor of the rating system.They hold that since students attend the teachers classes everyday, they should have their opinion about their teachers' effectiveness.Others, on the contrary, are
strongly against it.They think that students' rating is easy to administer and score, but it also is easy to abuse.They believe that there is much more to teaching than what is shown on students' rating forms.Students should not be expected to judge whether the materials used are up to date or how well the teacher knows about the subject.These judgments require professional knowledge, which is best left for the teachers' colleagues.I think students' rating of their teachers is necessary, but it should be conducted in a way that can really shed meaningful light on teachers' performance.Instead of rating the teachers' knowledge on the subject, students should be asked to estimate what they themselves have leaned in a course, and to report on such things as a teacher's ability to communicate with students, his relationship with students, and his ability to arouse interest in the subject.就业时选择高薪还是好的职业
Do You Prefer High Salary or A Promising Job?(观点题材)
When it comes to the choice of career, some people prefer the job with high salary.Why? Their reasons run as following: to begin with, high salary can bring them happy life;in addition, with high salary, they can do whatever they want.But some others prefer to choose a job with promising future.They base their choice on the following reasons: on one hand, a promising job itself means a raise and promotion in the future;on another hand, job with a bright future will bring them honor and sense of pride.As for me, if I’m left to make the choice, I’ll not hesitate to choose a promising job.First of all, I appreciate the honor and challenge it brings to me.At the same time, if I work hard, it will offer me a lot of opportunities including high salary, good position, etc.现代社会中的女性
Woman in Modern Society
Title: Woman in Modern Society
Outline: 1)Role of women in modern society
2)Prejudices and discrimination against women
3)My comments
Women play an important part in modern society.Now many women are going into professions, such as medicine, law and engineering.They comprise a large part of the workers in businesses and factories.In addition, they are working up to important positions which used to be held mainly by men.There are even some businesses which are run completely be women.Clearly, women are making outstanding contributions to the progress of modern society.There are, However, still some people who assert that men are superior to women in many ways.First, many jobs men do can hardly be done by women, who are physically not strong enough.Second, most of the world-famous scientists and statesmen are found to be males.Finally, the whole society seems to have always been dominated by men only.In their opinion, men should enjoy more rights than women do.Personally, I'm firmly standing on the side of those woman right defenders.Since both men and women are equally important in human activities, they should be on an equal footing.(173 words)

【作文示范】About Myself
My name is Li Hua.I was born in the city of Dalian, Liaoning Province.I studied in Guangming Primary School from 1984 to 1990.Then I entered
NO.6 Middle School where I mainly learned the subjects like Chinese, mathematics, English, physics, chemistry and computer.I have been very fond of and good at English and computer ever since.Therefore I placed first in the school computer competition last year.My hobbies include swimming in summer, skating in winter as well as collecting stamps and listening to popular music in my spare time.【写法指要】
1)本文是根据1996年高考英语“书面表达”题写成的,属介绍说明文中的自我介绍。所谓介绍说明,是指对所要说明的对象作概括扼要而又比较全面的介绍,所以介绍说明又称概说。这种文体很有用处,比如正式求职信或自荐信的第二段介绍个人履历时就经常这样写,在应聘或投考时的面试(interview)中也要作这样的口头表述。
2)个人简历这样的介绍说明文要按照时间顺序(time order)安排文章结构。所以,在文章中多用像“from 1984 to 1990”,“then”,“ever since”等这样的表示时间顺序的衔接词语(cohesive words/transitional words)达到文章在连贯(coherence)。虽然文章在整体上是以时间顺序写的,但也不排除使用其他逻辑关系的衔接词语。例如,本文倒数第二句开头用的就是表因果关系的衔接词“therefore”。这样,就把由于“I have been fond of and good at English and computer.”,因此“I placed first in the school computer competition last year.”之间的因果关系表达出来了。所以,在安排文章的结构时,说明顺序词语的运用应根据具体情况灵活掌握,不能死搬硬套

Remember to Write your composition neatly.My Ideal Job
There are various kinds of jobs in the world, such as writing, nursing, teaching and engineering.But different people choose different jobs as their ideal careers.This is because everyone has his own interest.As for me, I have made up my mind to be a teacher.I choose to do so mainly for three reasons.First, I want to teach because I like the pace of academic calendar.Two long vacations offer me an opportunity for reflection, research and writing.Secondly, I want to teach because I like the freedom to make my own mistakes, to learn my own lesson, to stimulate myself and my students.And I can have the opportunity to keep on learning.Finally, I want to teach because, being around the students who are beginning to grow and change in front of me, I will grow and change with them too.But teaching is no easy job at all.I must study cleverly to obtain more knowledge.And, at the same time, I will make every effort to purify my soul so that I can become an architect of man's soul.我的大学生活
My college life
As a sophomore, I am feeling the time flies.Recalling about the past one year, so many thoughts are flooding in my mind.At this time, I just can’t tell my real idea.The memory is just like so fresh, and all the things happened yesterday!
When first day I came to University, I really feel that the school is very good, but at the first sight of the dormitory, something disappointing come up to me!The condition of the dormitory is really very poor with only one room, no lavatory!I saw something sad in my father’s eyes, maybe that time he thought of the poor condition!So with a big smile on my face, I told my father” it doesn’t matter, Dad.In this kind of condition, I will get myself better!” My father felt better.But when he was coming back, seeing his back, I just wanted to cry!I felt in this city I was just isolated, from that time, I said to myself, “ you have no others who can help you here, just depend on yourself”
And then I came to my dormitory 303.I considered that I would spend four years here(in fact I moved to another one year later)and my dorm mates are all there.Most of them came from Sichuan and they were chatting with a happy voice, but I can’t understand them!Again, I felt myself isolated!I hated that kind of feeling, and then I said to hello to them!To my surprise they are very friendly to me and warm-hearted!I no longer felt afraid.And I got along well with them.But at the first night here, I burst out to tears for that I was missing my family.I don’t know why.Everyday when I was at home, I was just eager to go to school, to experience the wonderful college life but when coming here, I am just eager to go back!It’s quite strange though, you must know this kind of feeling!
Just spending about 2 days here, we were on our way to military train.To us, it’s a fresh train and a kind of experience to know the life between the classmates.But to me, I was nervous but excited.This was my first and precious train life because before going to school I have been staying with my family.So, you know, it’s just this kind of feeling I can’t convey it clearly!The train life is impressive on everybody;we had a lot of activities, for example giving a speech on a stage or singing together or playing basketball.At that time, I felt myself so little among them.All of them have a special talent but not me.I admired them but meanwhile jealousy.Why don’t I have this kind of talent? Am I stupid? I always said to myself.So that time I was also very ambitious, just eager to catch up with them.Except the classmates, the trainer in our team also left a deep impression on me!He was not very handsome and very kind.Just because of his kindness results in my laughter when training.He always said to me that I should be serious in the team but I didn’t listen to him.So after a long time, when investigating the training result, I gave them a disappointing answer.The highest trainer
如何保持健康
How to keep healthy
What is the most important thing in the world? I think it is health.You can take away our money, house, car, or even our clothes and we can survive.But if our health was taken away, we would surely die.That is why we always try to eat in a healthy way and exercise regularly.In order to eat healthily, I usually avoid eating food high in fat, like French fries or cookies.I also eat little meat.I eat a lot of vegetables and fresh fruit which are full of vitamins.Taking exercise every day helps us build a strong body.Regular exercise is an important part of keeping me healthy.What's more, I think friends are an important part of one's health.Many studies show that people with a wide range of social contacts get sick less than those who don't.I always feel better when I am with friends than when I am alone.When I am with my friends, I always laugh.Laughing is also an important part of health.I like to laugh with my friends.By eating properly and exercising regularly, I can keep my body at a proper weight and keep healthy.By spending time with my friends, I can keep my mind as well as my body happy.These things sound easy to do, but not many people can manage them.I think a strong will is necessary if we want to keep healthy.
