第一篇:高中英语作文素材 靠打工还是家庭资助来完成学业 Earning a Degree by Working or by Family Support
靠打工还是家庭资助来完成学业(Earning a Degree by Working or by Family Support)Some students in the United States work while they are doing their degrees;others receive support from their families.Both methods have advantages.I will argue in favor of family support.In a society where independence and individual success are valued, a student who earns his degree by working is gready admired.Friends will praise him for his initiative.Future employers will be impressed by his work record.However, in a society where cooperation and family dependence are valued, a student who receives support is fully understood.Friends will praise him for his efforts on behalf of his family.Future employers will not expect a work record from him.For my part, I would like to argue in favor of family support.While I study at university, my older brother sends me money every month.When I get my degree and find a good job, I will send my younger sister to a school or university.It may not be the best way, but it is a way that my society approves of.
第二篇:高中英语作文素材 选择事业还是家庭 Career or Family
选择事业还是家庭?(Career or Family?)I used to be radical and thought one could not be a success in career and, at the same time, have a happy family life.Sometimes I even subscounscinusly refused such things as love and marriage.Now I think man engages in a career in the hope of having a happy life, except for these “extremely intelligent”, who would choose career to the exclusion of family.In fact, their lives are not complete ones they have defects.Most people, including many great men, scientists and merchants, have experienced much the same experiences(of course, with the details varying).They are from birth to carefree childhood to troublesome adolescence, to dating, to work, to love, to marriage, to success in career, then to old age.Read while you read.Love while you love.Whatever you do, do it whole-heartedly.Even if one day I become a housewifp, that is nothing to be afraid of.What is important is that, in my heart, I have a deep love for life.I will keep in high spirits.I love.I marry.But I still dream my own dream.I will follow the law of nature and pursuit what is beautiful in life.I will hring myself into full play.Only by so doing, I will not regret anything in life.Do you think so?

是公共汽车还是罐头筒?-ABusor
A Bus or a Can? “Good heavens!”I always sigh with relief when I get off Bus No.65.There are many stories of sadness and sorrows about Bus No.65, which I take every day on my way to school.It is usual for me to wait for over ten minutes at the bus stop without seeing a bus coming during the rush hour.This causes more and more people to gather.Among them are those rushing to work, peasants going to the railway station with heavy luggage and students going to school with schoolbags on their shoulders.When finally a bus arrives, people will force their way into it when it is still moving.The doors open, men try hard to be the first to get on.They don't even wait for the passengers on the bus to get off!
In a while, the bus is filled again.It is so full that the conductor has difficulty closing the doors.A few people are forced to step off.Even so, the doors still can not close fast.So some warm-hearted men have to push hard on the backs of the few who are only half in and kick the doors close.Sometimes it is impossible for you to buy a ticket, for if you try to turn around it will cause complaints from others.I often feel as if I were so tightly tied that I were almost out of breath.Complaints, cries, angry curses① and quarrels soon fill my ears.“I'm almost breathless!” an old lady murmurs.“My handbag!Where is it? ”shouts someone.“Move a bit, can't you? You're stepping on my toe!”another cries angrily.“Why on earth do you push your elbow ② against my stomach?”still another protests③.“Those villagers!Throw them out!See how many big bags they carry with them!”Many shout in one voice.Babies let out screams of frights and sufferings.Although I am so used do quarrels that I am almost not caring about them, yet I very much wish I could turn my ears away from these noises.I can't help wondering whether I am one of the sardines ④ packed tightly in a can.When at last I am pushed on the bus by the gate of my school, I am often troubled by such a question,“When will all my sufferings of taking Bus No.65 end?”
【词语解释】
①curse [k+:s] n.咒骂;咒语
②elbow ['elb+u] n.肘;肘部
③protest [pr+u'test] v.抗议;反对;明言
④sardine [sa:'di:n] n.沙丁鱼
【写法指要】
本文通过乘坐公共汽车这样一件极普通的事生动地描写了人们社会生活环境的恶劣,暴露了社会风尚的低下。作者在触接这一主题时撷取了许多活生生的事例:等车、挤车、关门、买票、怨声、呼喊、哭叫、生气、咒骂、踩脚趾、争吵、肘顶腹部、丢手提包、扛麻袋、婴儿啼哭等等。最后,作者以提问的方式呼吁解决这一社会症结。整篇文章有客观性描写,也有印象性描写,二者结合得天衣无缝。
第四篇:高中英语作文素材 要分数还是要能力 To Get Scores or To Get Abilities
要分数还是要能力(To Get Scores or To Get Abilities?)
When asked such a question: Which is better, to get scores or to get abilities, many students' answer like mine would be that to get abilities is better than to get scores.To make it clear, we have to compare the both sides.Two different aims lead to two different methods and two different results.If we are eager to get good marks, our teachers would take a cramming-duck hand to force us to do much hard work.We have to learn by heart a lot of lifeless knowledge.We have to recite many many poems and texts.We have to carry a heavy school-bag.We have to do much homework after school.All of what we do is merely for a single purpose----to pass examinations.As a result we cannot enjoy any thing.We have no free time.We have no holidays.We have no games and plays.We have no pleasure.We have no childhood.In the end we have no skills or capabilities except some dead knowledge from books.We are not able to wash our clothes.We are not able to cook meals.We are not able to labour in the fields.We are not able to operate machines in the factories.In a word we cannot do any practical work.On the other hand, if we intend to gain abilities, our teachers will take flexible and varied measures in their teaching practice.They will provide for all the students chances to share equal education and we students are supposed to enjoy all-round development.While we learn knowledge from books, we are showed how to use computers, how to make a radio or recorder, how to make experiments and researches in sciences;how to play the piano or violin, how to sing or dance, how to draw or paint pictures and portraits;how to prepare a dish or how to make bread;how to plant trees and grass, how to go in for farming by means of scientific methods;how to do business and how to keep in touch with others.All in all, we can play an active part in our studies.At last we will master not only book knowledge, but also the other three abilities----living ability, working ability and mabageable ability.Thus, we will serve the people better.By comparing the two ideas, we can come to a close that the purpose to get scores is far worse than the aim to get vanous abilities.Only when we know well both scientific knowledge and practical skills, can we live happily and work wonderfully in the society in the coming future.
第五篇:高中英语 电话进入成千上万的家庭(Telephone Goes into Hundreds of Thous作文素材
电话进入成千上万的家庭(Telephone Goes into Hundreds of ThousThe last less than twenty years saw rapid development of telephone service in China.Home phones, which used to be thought of as luxury, have become a common thing in more and more average homes.From the graph, we know that in 1978, the city only possessed about 50,000 home phones because of the low living standard of people.Since then, however, owing to the reform and open-door policy, people become wealthy enough to afford home phones.The installation of home phones went a big step forward especially over the last five years.Compared with home phones in 1991, the number doubled in 1997, eight times as many as that in 1978.The fast increase in the number of home phones not only indicates that we Chinese people are richer than ever, but also shows that we are eager to take part in social communication.It is definite that telephones will play an increasingly positive role in both our work and life.
