注意:
1)词数不少于100;
2)不可逐条翻译;
3)可适当增加细节,以使文章连贯;

参考范文:
as is known to all, food is a priority for the common people. recently, however, reports about food problems have often been seen in the newspapers, showing that people have always been concerned about what they eat every day. the reason for this problem is that some of the food producers are too fond of making money, leading to the result that they use whatever will make the food look good or taste better without considering the bad consequences. this is not normal because people just cannot live without eating anything.
so we should take all the measures necessary to forbid the food producers to make food that is not safe enough. laws should be strengthened and the government should have more control over these producers. only when people are no longer worried about whether their food is safe or not can they enjoy a better life.

篇5:清洁工英文
全文共 1603 字
+ 加入清单Cleaner, I admire you, you should learn silently selfless dedication -.
Most of the people who admire it are famous scientists, or great people familiar with it, but I admire the street angels cleaning workers who are unknown.
I saw a story: a dustman was beaten by a group of small posters when he advertised a small advertisement at the bus stop at the bus stop. Its true that those who put up small ads are obviously wrong, not only do not admit mistakes, but also hit the cleaning worker. Thats disgusting. He doesnt even think about it. Dont you save money for publicity? You cant ruin our homes.
Think carefully, some people because they are humble and belittle them, and because they dirty, see them, avoid everywhere, or even tell the child, do not contact him. But if our earth has no cleaner, the earth will be everywhere is dirty, become people, not out of the house at The atmosphere was foul.. Has everyone thought of this situation? Have you thought about it? Why do cleaners have to clean the city? Is it because cleaners pay a high salary? But they cant afford to buy good clothes. Is it because they love to sweep the streets? Can they all of a sweat. In fact, the cleaner is also because of their knowledge level is not high enough to engage in the cleaning industry. But they still make contributions to society. Cleaner, let our next generation can have a good living environment.
How ordinary and great the cleaners are! They make our city so clean and so beautiful. I think theyre worth a lot more than we do.
Cleaner! I admire you! I want to contribute to the people as much as you do.

+ 加入清单When I first saw this movie I didnt appreciate it like I do now. Because I was so young that I didnt get the main idea when I first saw it. Just recently I saw the movie again. What an amazing and moving story. That movie teaches you so much about life and the meaning of it. That life isnt as bad as most people feel. Forrest Gump, the innocent man can impact so many lives with his innocence. The meaning of the movie to me is that everyone needs to have a better outlook on life. That we need to appreciate more of the little things and not let the big things hold us back. Although life may throw us trials and tribulations like a box of chocolates, we just have to bite into it and get through it even if we dont like it. I just love this movie. And anyone who hasnt seen it or who thinks that dont like it I seriously suggest seeing it or seeing it again. It truly is amazing…
篇8:皮匠和银行家英文作文欣赏
全文共 2480 字
+ 加入清单The Cobbler and the Banker
By La Fontaine
A cobbler passed his time in singing from morning till night;it was wonderful to see,wonderful to hear him;he was more contented in shoes,than was any of the seven sages.His neighbor,on the contrary,who was rolling in wealth,sung but little and slept less.He was a banker;when by chance he fell into a doze at day-break,the cobbler 12 awoke him with his song.The banker complained sadly that Providence had not made sleep a saleable commodity,like edibles or drinkables.
Having at length sent for the songster,he said to him,
"How much a year do you earn,Master Gregory?"
"How much a year,sir?"said the merry cobbler laughing,"I have reckon in that way,living as I do from one day to another;somehow I manage to reach the end of the year;each day brings its meal."
"Well then!How much a day do you earn,my friend?"
"Sometimes more,sometimes less;but the worst of it is,-and,without that our earnings would be very tolerable, a number of days occur in the year on which we are forbidden to work;and the curate,moreover,is constantly adding some new saint to the list.
The banker,laughing at his simplicity,said,"In the future I shall place you above want.Take this hundred crowns,preserve them carefully,and make use of them in time of need."
The cobbler fancied he beheld all the wealth which the earth had produced in the past century for the use of mankind.Returning home,he buried his money and his happiness at the same time,No more singin;he lost his voice,the moment he acquired that which is the source of so much grief.Sleep quitted his dwelling; and cares,suspicions,and false alarms took its place,All day,his eye wandered in the direction of his treasure;and at night,if some stray cat made a noise,the cat was robbing him.
At length the poor man ran to the house of his rich neighbor;"Give my back." said he,"sleep and my voice,and take your hundred crowns."
参考翻译
拉.封丹
一个皮匠从早到晚在唱歌中度过。无论见到他本人或听见他的歌声都使人觉得很愉快。他对于制鞋工作比当上了希腊七圣还要满足。
于工作把他吵醒了。银行家郁郁寡欢地抱怨上帝没有睡眠也制成一种像食品或饮料那样可以买卖的商品。后来,银行家就叫人把这位 歌手请来,问道:“格列戈里师傅,你一年赚多少钱?”
“先生,你问我一年赚多少钱吗?”快乐的皮匠笑道:“我从来不算这笔帐,我是一天一天地过日子,总而言之坚持到年底,每天挣足三餐。”
“啊,朋友,那么你一天赚多少钱呢?”
“有时多一点,有时少一点;不过最糟糕的是一年中总有些日子不准我们做买卖,牧师又常常在圣徒名单上添新名字,否则我们的收入也还算不错的。”
银行家被皮匠的直率逗笑了,他说:“我要你从今以后不愁没钱用。这一百枚钱你拿去,小心放好,需要时拿来用吧。” 皮匠觉自己好像看到了过去几百年来大地为人类所需而制造出来的全部财富。他回到家中,埋藏好硬币,同时也埋葬了他的快乐。他不再唱歌了;从他得到这种痛苦的根源那一刻起,他的嗓子就哑了。睡眠与他分手;取而代之的却是担心、怀疑、虚惊。白天,他的 目光尽朝埋藏硬币的方向望;夜间,如果有只迷途的猫弄出一点声响,他就以为是有人来抢他的钱。最后,这个可怜的皮匠跑到他那富有的邻居家里说:“把你的一百枚钱拿回去,还我的睡眠和歌声来。”

+ 加入清单At my school, we had a charity sale last week
The charity sale was held on our school playground last Saturday morning.
We prepared many things which were made by hand in our spare time, such as
kites, model planes and so on. They looked very beautiful. We also brought old
toys and second-hand books to sell on the sale. At 8:30, the activity started.
Many students and teachers came to take part in it. Everyone chose their
favorite items and paid for them at a much lower price. In the end, the money we
made added up to over 2,000.
We sent the money to the community to help children who couldnt attend
school and the seniors who needed better care.
I had a wonderful experience. Im proud of what we have done. If everyone
makes a contribution to the charity, the world will become much better.
篇11:我的英文写作的经验举例分析
全文共 3306 字
+ 加入清单一、英语写作的特点.
The characteristics of formal writing
1.名词化趋势
I do not eat much.-->I am a light eater.
The clock on the desk reminds me of time.-->I put a clock on the desk as a reminder of time.
We once cried, laughed and disappointed.-->There were moments of tears, moments of laughter, and moments of disappointment.
注意:名词化趋势的句子当然还有动词, 目的是尽量把表达句子中心意思的那个词汇用名词表达.符合英文的习惯.
2.无灵主语(区别于被动语态)
我们中文写作中,习惯以人做主语,而英文则相反,习惯以物做主格.
More and more young students studied further in the past two decades.
-->The past two decades witnessed a growing number of young students for further study.
Looking out of the window, you will have a nice view.
-->A glance out of the window offers you a nice view.
注意: 名词化趋势和无灵主语常常是相结合的.
3.被动语态
这一点大家比较熟悉,不详细讲.比如:
Great efforts should be made to…..
What can not be denied is that….
二、句式的写作:
Main features of English sentences:
1.长短句结合
Love is patient and kind. It is never jealous, boastful, proud or rude. It keeps no record of wrong that others do. It always protects, always fruits, always hopes, and always perseveres. Love never fails.
一般来讲,总结性的句子应当使用短句,而说理的句子应用长句.
2.并列复合句
这种句子属于十分难写的句子,也举一个例子:
He who wants to save his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for me will save it.
3.单一复合句
也就是我们常说的各种从句,不再举例.
三、Variety of sentences:
1. ”-ing & -ed” groups
e.g.
(1)Standing by the riverside, the Master sighed,” May time go on and on like this, never ceasing day and night.”
(2)Reviewing what one has learned and gaining new insights, one is fit to be a teacher.
(3)Compared with the tradition, modernity is more dynamic.
2. ”to do” groups
e.g.
To spend too much time in study is sloth; to use them too much for ornaments is affectation; to make any judgment wholly by their rules is the humor of the scholar.
3. adverb
Simply, amazingly, absurdly, broadly, practically and so on
e.g.
Intelligently applied to daily life, modern technology will surely bring benefits to the well-being of the human race.
4.介词短语
In pursuit of, in spite of (注意平时自己的收集)
e.g.
In pursuit of excellence, ever pushing up the limit, life consists in the hope born of despair.
5.主语从句
e.g.
What China needs is not more morals, but more prisons for politicians.
句子的变化还有 It is self-evident(adj) that…….和There be 这样的句子
6.倒装
(1)将一些否定性含义的副词和短语在句首,用倒装会使句子生色不少.
Never before has such a high standard been achieved.
Hardly had he arrived when she started complaining.
(2)为使描绘更加生动,与介词同形的副词可以移动到句首,而把主语放到谓语后面去.
Following the roar, out rushed a tiger from the bushes.
In came a pretty girl he had never seen before.
四、插入语
插入语可以是一个小词,也可以是一个同谓语的形式.
1.先看一个小技巧:(对there be 句型均有效)
There is, recently, a debate amongst educators that……
通俗的讲,在老外眼里,主语与谓语离的越远,句子的档次越高.
2.插入语后面再接上一个定语从句;
Direct experience, a necessary means to recognize the world, which differs from knowledge acquired from books, is a major step to the cognitive world.
再看几个同谓语从句的例子:
1.Television, one of the most pervasive and persuasive technologies, marked by the rapid growth and drastic change, has a profound impact on people’s lives.
2.Courage, a basic quality that every human being is supposed to possess when facing a dilemma, is highly cherished among young people.
3. Convention, generally accepted practice especially with regard to social behavior, has now been increasingly challenged.
平时要多积累这样的句型,使之变成自己的语言.
Tip:对同谓语的解释尽量宽泛一些,有利于句子的拉长.
对于入语加定语从句开头.
就是说:将题目中的中心词拿出来,进行宽泛的解释.
这一方法对很大一部分的考题都是有效的.
以上就是我的一点总结,希望对大家会有所帮助.

篇14:他的生日到了英文作文
全文共 2018 字
+ 加入清单we are opposed to that theory.
socialism, which is perfectly clear and unmistakable, says the thing you have got to take care of is your distribution.
we have to begin with that, and private property, if it stands in the way of good distribution, has got to go.
a man who holds public property must hold it on the pub1ic condition on which, for instance, i carry my walking stick.
i am not al1owed to do what i like with it.i must not knock you on the head with it.
we say that if distribution goes wrong, everything else goes wrong-religion, morals - government.
and we say, therefore (this is the whole meaning of our socialism}, we must begin with distribution and take all the necessary steps.
i think we are keeping it in our minds because our business is to take care of the distribution of wealth in the worid1 and i tell you, as i have told you be fore, that i don’t think there are two men, or perhaps one man, in our 47,000,000 who approves of the existing distribution of wealth.
i will go even further and say that you will not find a single person in the whole of the civilized world who agrees with the existing system of the distribution of wealth.
it has been reduced to a blank absurdity.
i think the day will come when we will be able to make the distinction between us and the capitalists.
we must get certain leading ideas before the people.
we should announce that we are not going in for what was the old-fashioned idea of redistribution, but the redistribution of income.
let it always be a question of income.
i have been very happy here to night.
i entirely understand the distinction made by our chairman to night when he said you hold me in social esteem and a certain amount of personal affection.
i am not a sentimental man, but l am not 1nsensible to all that.
i know the value of all tl1at, and it gives me, now that 1 have come to the age of seventy (it will not occur again and i am saying it for the first time), a great fee1ing of pleasure that l can say what a good many people can’t say.

篇19:英文求职信写作的重要方法
全文共 1032 字
+ 加入清单求职信通常分为几种类型,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。

Bryant once said that if he had stayed in Italy,he would have stuck with soccer and would have tried to become a pro soccer player.In 1991,the Bryants moved back to the United States.A spectacular high school career at Lower Merion High School in the Philadelphia suburb of Lower Merion,brought national recognition.
