my holiday英文作文6句（推荐20篇）

Dear Michael,

You want to know the changes about my hometown. You know, great changes

have taken place since 60 years ago.

In the past, the living conditions were very poor. There were not many

buses or cars, and the roads were narrow. Usually, a big family was crowded into

a small, dark house. Most families couldn’t get enough food. The communications

were simple and slow. People kept in touch with their friends and relatives far

away mainly by letter or telegram.

Thanks to the government, our hometown has developed rapidly in recent

years. The living conditions are much better and more comfortable. The roads are

wide. Some people have their own cars. Most of the people live in big new

houses. Quite a few adults have mobile phones. I think our lives will become

better and better because of many good policies.

Sincerely

Kang Min

英文名称是Application letter。它通常分为几种类型，包括索取公司应聘申请表及详细资料的不带的求职信，附简历的应征求职信，试探性的求职信等等。 那么，英文有哪些呢？

递交求职信的目的是用求职信来吸引阅读者，而不是一种形式或习惯。打开装有求职信的信封，首先看到的就是求职信，它是表现应聘者个性的工具，想象一下，如果对方看到的是连折叠都不齐整的信纸，还有好心情看下去吗？而结构松散的信会让人觉得写信者条理不清晰。语法拼写或标点的错误太多，则会让人觉得此人办事容易出错，对工作不负责任，公司是不会聘用这样的人的。通常一封求职信的阅读时间是30秒，在这30秒内能体现的实际上是你的风格。而每一个公司都喜欢聘用专业作风很强的有能力的员工。

在招聘广告中，常要求有意申请者可致电或致函索取公司的申请表格。索取这类申请表格的求职信一般都比较简短，格式参照范例。 得到申请表格后，仔细填写后一般与简历一起交给公司。申请表格的填写。

附简历的应征求职信具有向招聘者说明简历和具体求职内容的作用。简历中你已经将自己的职业经历或教育情况列表说明了，在求职信里就应着重表达自己的意见。在求职信里要简短地对简历中提到的与应聘职位有关的职业经历和技能加以说明。但是，只是简单的重复简历里的内容是不够的。要把简历里没有的内容充分添加进去，显示出与其他应聘者的差别。你需要表达的观点是：渴望、确信、真诚（I am keen, I am clear and I am sincere)。在第一段里，陈述你渴望得到这个空缺职位，第二段说明你已了解这项工作和公司的要求，说明你为什么认为你符合它们的招聘条件。第三段讲清你本人希望在何时面试，何时可以上班。第四段采用能使公司相信你对这项工作真正有兴趣的语句结束这封信。

典型的求职信格式是：你的地址写在信纸的右上方，地址下面是写信日期。信纸左上角要写上接受你求职信的人的姓名和尊称其下面是该公司的名称和地址。再下面就是招聘广告中给出的其他相关代码。

试探性的求职信是你主动发给你感兴趣的公司的，这类希望渺茫的却经常能出人意料的取得成功，因为这种申请求职的方法表现出了申请人本身的能力、勇气和激情。

试探性求职申请信应该简洁，讲清楚你对该公司感兴趣的原因，写明你具备的资格以及你认为会引起该公司注意的任何品德。邮寄申请信时，要把也一起寄去。你还需要知道公司里人事经理或部门经理的名字，把直接信寄给他会更有效一些。

可能在很长的一段时间里，你收不到任何回音，那么可以断定该公司目前没有你申请的空缺职位。

春天来了

俗话说：“一年之计在于春，一日之计在于晨。” 。春天是一个美好的季节。春天开始告别寒冬，河流开始解冻，小草开始生长，百花盛开。

春天来了，人们开始寻找春天的气息，有的出门踏青，有的静静的躺着晒太阳，还有的人们三三两两的放风筝，春天真美丽。

Spring is coming As the saying goes: "spring, an hour in the morning is worth two in the evening." Spring is a beautifulseason.

Spring begins to bid farewell to winter, river begins to thaw, grass begins to grow, flowers in full bloom.

Spring is coming, people began to looking for the breath of spring, someone go for a walk in the country in spring,

some lying quietly in the sunshine,and there are a crowd of people fly kites together, what a beautiful season.

The Spring Festival is coming. I know that you must be very fond of the Spring Festival. Because everyone can stick to the spring festival couplet, see the Spring Festival Gala, visit friends and friends … …

I remember when the Spring Festival approached last year, I learned to write couplets at home. I stood aside and looked at the couplets written by adults. I saw that they dipped in a pen with ink, and then wrote several big words on the red paper. I cant remember the specific content. The couplet was very neat, and I said to my uncle, &ldquo, can you teach me to write a couplet? ” I remember clearly the uncle asked, "“ do you use a brush?" Do you know how to write a couplet? ” I shook my head and said, “ no. ” so he said, "“ you have grown up for one year again, and you cant even use a brush. Ill teach you a few tricks at this opportunity." ” after hearing the uncles words, I jumped up happily.

The uncle told me to sit straight while writing, not on the table. And then tell me in detail how to use the brush. After listening to my uncles words, I finally learned some of the most basic ways to use the brush. Then the uncle asked me to write a few words to show him. I wrote five words: “ I love Chinese &rdquo most; Written askew, probably just use a brush! The uncle saw a smile: “ the word was written well, but the pen was not straight. ”

So my uncle taught me: “ when writing every word, it is not to use the same strength to write every word, but the power should be changed with weight. The written words will be more varied and look more beautiful. The uncle finished the demonstration and wrote several words to imitate me. It is comfortable to look at the words written by the uncle. I tried to write a few words on my uncles look, and I really made progress. I was much happier than I had just written.

The uncle also told me that writing should be often trained to imitate the name. The more it is written, the more writing it is, the better it is.

In this Spring Festival, I have learned a little bit of writing brush writing skills, is really more happy than to get the money, but also more affordable.

today is december 1st. oh, it’s my birthday! i’m so happy. so i get up very early. i wear my nice coat. mom says, “you’re so cute.” i say, “thank you.” in the evening, grandpa gives me a book. dad gives me a big cake. we eat cake and drink milk. my pet dog, winnie is eating cake, too. my family says, “happy birthday to you!” today i’m so happy.

The oceanside community of Lozano Beach is debating whether to allow homeowners to rent out their homes on a weekly basis during the summer. Such rentals produce high incomes for the owners and the city, which gets part of this income through a 15-percent surcharge to the owner. “This can be a boon to our coffers,” said Rick Brown, city manager. “In the summer, homeowners can bring in $2,000 a week or more.”

However, these rentals can also be a can of worms. The city stopped allowing weekly rentals 10 years ago because of the problems they were generating. Two, three, or even four families would pile into a two- or three-bedroom house. Then they would park their cars on the lawn and produce huge amounts of trash. Sometimes they would toss this trash on the streets and sidewalks.

Noise would be another problem. Some people would party late and loud every night. This abuse created a lot of friction with neighbors and resulted in extra work for city maintenance crews and for police, who had to respond almost hourly to residents’ complaints about noise, music, trash, and parking problems. But now, the city’s budget problems are making it reconsider its ban.

City officials will hold a community meeting next week to listen to the pros and cons. One official has already suggested a proposal. He thinks that a fine might work. If the city has to respond to complaints, the homeowner will be charged $200 per response. Such a fine might cause the homeowner to be careful to rent only to people that he is sure will be considerate of the neighbors. The city would still get 15 percent of the rental fee, even if the homeowner’s rent were totallyoffset by fines. The city would post inconsiderate renters’ names on the city website so that other homeowners would know about them.

Some officials think the ban should be continued because these visitors to the community have already proven that they have no consideration for others. Their money isn’t worth the headaches they cause.

Today is X month XX day, this evening is the eve of the new years Eve, open the TV on the Spring Festival Gala. There are so many programs, singing, dancing, sketches, crosstalk, acrobatics … … among them, my favorite program is magic Louis Liu.

He performed three magic tricks in all. Orange juice magic, poker magic, coin magic. In the first magic, he filled with a paper cup full of orange juice, one hand covered the cup and fell over. It was not a drop. It was amazing! And the magic of the coin that passed through the glass was so amazing that I was stunned.

I hope world peace, although Chinese children live without war, but a lot of areas are still pervaded with brutal wars. I hope to be able to peace. By that time, everyone has a hand of friendship, and everyone is equal and free. There were no invaders, no roar of the rebels, no pistols, and the bombing of the war. I hope that the laughter of children is full of laughter, the sweet smile of the people, the ambitious invaders, and the warmth of kindness, no ambition and greed.

In Afghanistan, after the war, peoples lives are threatened, because in the whole of Afghanistan underground, buried 1 million mines. Its common to kill or blow up by landmines. Even in the center of the city, many people were killed and wounded. What is not believed is that a 10 year old boy was wounded by a mine at the side of the school. Love, people love, respect people, are respected. If everyone understands that all of them live in harmony and mutual humility, we can avoid war. I want the world to be peace forever, to make peace in other regions, and to live a happy life with us.

圣诞老人，虽然我不知道真实的你长什么样，但是我在很多照片上看过你的样子。每年的十二月二十五日，你都会给我们送来圣诞礼物。

每年的圣诞节，我们都可以实现自己的一个愿望。今年的圣诞节，我有一个愿望。圣诞老人，你可以帮我实现吗?我身上有一个坏习惯，那就是做事写作业都很慢。圣诞老人，你可以帮助我把这个坏习惯改掉吗?如果我可以改掉的话，妈妈不用再盯着我做作业啦!那样一来，妈妈会很开心的。

你是一个很了不起的圣诞老人，你会帮每个小朋友实现愿望。所以，你也可以帮我实现我的愿望吗?

祝：每天快快乐乐!健康长寿!

There are many rules in our school.

From Monday to Friday，we have to get to school before 7：00 in the morning.

We must wear school uniforms，and I think it is good for us because uniforms can

make us look smart. We must listen to our teachers carefully in class and finish

our homework after school. We are not allowed to use mobile phones in class. I

think the rules are very strict but useful，and we should follow them. However，we

have so much homework that we have little free time to do what we love to

do.

In my opinion，we should have more free time to take part in all kinds of

activities and improve our abilities.

I sat in the window, listening to the sound of knocking, destroying the branches, occasionally heard from afar the barking of the dog, how sad ah! Under the eaves of the kitten, can not resist the cold snap, and also cold “ meow … meow … ” the call of non-stop.

Walking on the road, I saw the green leaves turn yellow, and the bright flowers withered, and the beautiful scenery disappeared.

Winter is coming, and I can eat! Eat straight up, and I also eat tall and strong. Winter is coming, you can not afraid of the sun, rain, thunder and typhoon, it is really good.

Winter is coming, although its cold, but there are many advantages, so I still like winter!

Summer can be very hot in southern Taiwan where the temperature usually

goes up to 32"C or more. Because of the heat it is a trying experience to go to

school or do anything else in a place that is not air-conditioned. Also because

of this I stay at home most of the time during the summer vacation and

occasionally go to the beach to plunge myself into the cool water as a way to

keep my body less sticky. Actually I like swimming think nothing is more

refreshing than a swim. In the summer vacation that has ended I went swimming

many times with my classmates we all had a good time. This summer vacation,

however, was not spent entirely in seeking fun. As a second-year senior student

I had to prepare myself for the college entrance examinations that were a year

away. In other words, I must find time to study, too. So I divided my time

between work play during the summer vacation derived benefit from this

arrangement.

I am. I was born in. I graduate from senior high school and major in English. I started learning English since I was 12 years old. My parents have a lot of American friends. That’s why I have no problem communicating with Americans or others by speaking English.

In my spare time, I like to do anything relating to English such as listening to English songs, watching English movies or TV programs, or even attending the activities held by some English clubs or institutes. I used to go abroad for a short- term English study. During that time, I learned a lot of daily life English and saw a lot of different things.

I think language is very interesting. I could express one substance by using different sounds. So I wish I could study and read more English literatures and enlarge my knowledge.
