[关于期末考试的英文作文

小青非常懂礼貌，可现代人不懂。大家见了对方，就以一声“喂”结束，舍不得说一声“您好”。小青听说在离地球9999光年外有一个AAA星球，上面有个礼貌国。她便坐着“神州1234号”来到AAA星礼貌国。

她刚下飞船，就被一个人拽进了一座大楼。那是一座礼貌学校，小青在那学了三天三夜（现实生活中没这事儿！嘻嘻！），第四天，她就毕业了（快吧）。

出了学校，她感觉肚子在发出“强烈抗议”，便前往一座餐厅。刚到餐厅，餐厅侍者立刻跪倒在小青面前，口里还不停地说着“欢迎阁下”“请阁下自便”，小青一愣，便用“不客气”“请起”回复。她来到前台点餐，柜台小姐说：“阁下，请问您想要什么？”“请您给我拿一份牛排和一杯牛奶，好吗？”“完全可以！请阁下稍等片刻。”

3分钟后，一名侍者将食物送到。“实在让您久等了，阁下。”侍者满脸歉意地说。“没事儿没事儿，”小青有些不耐烦地说，“不用如此。”“那请原谅，阁下，我退下了！”侍者说完便急忙退下了。小青吃完，便急忙逃命似的“逃”出餐馆。

她又来到超市。在超市，她发现超市每样东西价格都低的不能再低。小青有60AAA元，少说也能买6000万样东西（价格真低吧！嘻嘻！）。她一打听，才知道超市为了礼节，才这么做。小青一听，晕……晕归晕，她还是回过神来。他走到一个柜台前，售货员走过来微笑地对她说：“阁下您要什么？”“我要……您拿给我。”小青一口气说了1000样东西。很快，100个柜台便被清干净了。小青也只花了6角钱。

小青又漫游了15个地点，听到的最多的话就是“阁下”“您”“请”……不知道她的旅行快不快乐……你说呢？！

week-long holidays,good or bad?whats your opinion?

our national day is coming. we shall have days of rest,presumably weeklong holidays again just like the weeklong may day holidays. many people welcome weeklong holidays and are busy planning where and how to spend the seven days;whereas many other people do not applaud. as to me, weeklong holidays mean a span of dullness, boredom, melancholy and helplessness, and i think anyone who had experienced the holiday sufferings in may would share my feelings.

i well remember that from may day, to be more exact, a few days earlier than may day, the shopping season started.most shops extended their shopping hours to respond to their overwhelmingly enthusiastic customers. there were special sales with discount coupons and instant lucky draws and various sales promotions in nearly every big store to lure po tential customers into spending more. crowds of shoppers flocked towards department stores, enjoying their high purchasing power.

there were traffic jams almost everywhere, people waited in long queues at bus-stops:and taxi-stands? looking entirely exhausted.tempers flared when people gotpushed or if someone else cut the queue.impatient drivers honked at each other every now and then.

the railway station was congested with travelers who rushed to the platform like a swarm of bees and then squeezed their way into the train for seats as if there would be no tomorrow.

in the restaurants, tables were shared. a platoon of waiters filed out from the kitchen armed with various containers of eatables. orders were taken feverishly and then shouted across to the kitchen. excitement reigned everywhere as waiters ran hither and thither to fill the orders.

the above are just some vivid scenes that happened a few months ago. everywhere was chaos and chaos everywhere. i am really afraid the drama will soon be repeated.

true,weeklong holidays help activate economy, but what about after-holiday depression? no doubt, people can have a lot of leisure, but leisure does not always bring a lot of pleasure.

中国自古就被称为“礼仪之邦”，由此可见，人民最注重的就是礼貌。什么是礼貌？礼貌的范围广大，有待人处世的进退礼节，尊师重道，兄友弟恭，以理智的方式互相沟通，设身处地为人着想，这就是礼貌。

俗话说：“礼多人不怪。”让我们先从说话的礼貌开始。要做到待人谦虚，处处有礼貌，嘴巴常挂着“请”、“谢谢”、“对不起”三句话，别人自然会高兴，也会以礼貌、恭敬的态度对待你，这样就可相处的很愉快。另外，日常生活中的礼貌琐事，更要细心注意，例如：遇见认识的人要打招呼：别人做事情时不可吵他：别人说话时不可插嘴等等，由这些细节中，即可看出一个人的修养。“良言一句三冬暖，恶言半句六月寒。”相反的，一个人如果在与人相处时，不懂礼貌，甚至态度粗野，时常口出恶言，说一些不雅的字眼，这样的人将到处被人厌恶，不但朋友没了，事业也不成功，岂不是很可悲？

曾经有一个人在拥挤的车潮中驾车缓缓前进，在等红灯时，一个衣服褴褛的小男孩，敲着车窗问他要不要买花，他递出两块美金，由于绿灯已亮，而后面的人正猛按喇叭催着，因此他粗暴的对着正问他要什么花的男孩说：“什么颜色都可以，你只要快一点就好。”那男孩十分礼貌的说：“谢谢你，先生。”在开了一小段路后，他有些良心不安，他粗暴无礼的态度，却得到对方如此有礼的回应，他把车停在路边，回头走向孩子表示歉意，并且又再给了两块美金，要他自己买一束花送给喜欢的人，这个孩子笑了笑并道谢接受。当他回去发动车子时，发现车子故障了，动也动不了，在一阵忙乱后，他决定步行找拖吊车帮忙，正在思索时，一辆拖吊车已经迎面驶来，他大为惊讶，司机笑着对他说，有一个小孩给了我四块美金，要我开过来帮你，并且还写了一张纸条，他打开一看，上面写着：“这代表一束花。”由此可见，礼貌在生活当中占有一个重要的位置。

礼貌是做人处事最基本的条件，也是与人相处，首先必须懂的。如果每个人做事、说话都有礼貌，大家和平相处，那么社会一定非常安祥和乐。

Today after dinner, the adults were tired, and I volunteered to say, "Mom, Ill do the housework today." Mom is very happy. I put the dishes from the water room, see the rest of the noodles, I said: "Mom, I put the noodles refrigerator?" my mother told me to put cold noodles. And then I began to wash the dishes.

Mother in the side said: "put some detergent, can go to oil, wash clean, and can also sterilize." I quickly washed the bowl, and then I rubbed the table and collected the table. Finally, I also swept the ground clean.

I was tired of doing these housework, I was sweating, but I was happy, mom said I grew up.

Nowadays, the Internet is becoming more and more popular in the society, and network morality and politeness are becoming more and more important. Although the network is a virtual world, it still needs to pay attention to morality and courtesy.

In real life, people pay attention to civilization and politeness when they interact with each other. They are willing to show themselves a good image of culture, culture and good behavior.

In the virtual society, people do not meet each other, and the two parties may never know who they are. This is not polite, can talk, swearing talk? Can not! In this virtual network society, due to the interaction between people are generally written language, so humble attitude, polite language, mutual respect is more important, it will make people feel warm, can naturally narrow the distance between the two sides, eliminate the strange feeling, so that both sides of communication communicate friendly. Polite manners will help you build a bridge between friends.

If you start swearing, swearing, will only make you disgust, think you are not self-cultivation. This kind of person has no place in the society and the internet. According to Chutian Metropolis Daily, two middle school students in Jingzhou are chatting with QQ, one of them is swearing, and the other is dragging him into the blacklist. The curse of the "Coral" version of the QQ to find the other side of the Internet bar, machine number, about a few classmates, find him, killed him alive. Later, he was caught by the court and sentenced to punishment.

Morality, not only involves no swearing, must also keep a promise inviolate. If the blind to post, will let others do wrong, harm to others for gospel truth.

In addition, because we teenagers are in the growth period, experience is little, lack of experience, in this complex world travel network was set up, we must pay attention to self-protection awareness, establish a "firewall" in their mind, to influence us against bad information. Restricted information, if you are in the restricted area, must not enter.

For example, some of my classmates on the Internet found a actionpacked, what is called "flash" game, open display "factors in this game with violence, under the age of 18, but they are prohibited from entering the" stubborn into play. Because they play too much, they want to rush up, hit a few punches or kick a few legs, and learn straight.  What a sad thing it is! We must draw lessons from the inappropriate information of minors, and not play games that are not suitable for minors.

Internet must use their own registered accounts and passwords, without permission, absolutely can not steal other peoples accounts and passwords, and add "friends" to pass the other sides permission and verification. Its a basic virtue when someone enters the account number and password.

Other peoples web pages, animation, writing the text are the intellectual property rights of the producer, is protected by the state, without permission can not be reproduced, the name of their own department.

Talking about security issues again. At present, there are many swindlers on the Internet, using childrens credulity and curiosity to date children to meet somewhere. Such a thing, even if you know each other, must also consult with parents, can not relax vigilance. The most important thing is, no matter when, can not easily release personal data online.

Okay！ Wish you a reasonable arrangement of time, online carefree, safe tour!

Cathy,

My dear friend. How is it going? And your family? oh,I really miss you! Mrs Wu is fine too.How do you think your new teacher? Is she or he very kind? And your classmates? Are they friendly to you?

[与礼貌待人有关的名言警句

Carrying Faggots to Put Out a Fire

In the last years of the Warring States period, the State of Qin attacked the State of Wei on a large scale repeatedly and occupied large areas of land, for the State of Wei was too weak to defend itself. In 273 B.B., the qin army launched another attack upon the State of Wei with a momentum more vigorous than ever. The king of the State of Wei summoned his officials,and asked with a worried look if anyone could propose a way to defeat the Qin army. After years of chaos caused by the wars,the officials trembled when fighting was mentioned, and no one dared to speak ofresistance. At the critical moment when a large enemy force was bearing down upon the border, most of the offinials persuaded the king to sue for peace, at the cost of giving away to the State of Qin the large area of land north of the Huanghe River and south of the Taihang Mountain. However Su Dai, a counsellor, did not agree. He hurried up to the king and said:"Your Majesty, they dont think about the interests of the country at all.It is just because they are cowardly and afraid of death that they ask you to sue for peace by betraying the country. Of course you can temperarily satisfy the ambition of the king of the State of Qin is insatiably greedy. It will never stop assaulting us until our land is totally given away."Once there was a man whose house was on fire. People told him to put out the fire with water, but he would not listen. Instead, he carried a faggot to put out the fire, only to make the fire fiercer. That was because he didnt know that,instead of putting out the fire, faggots could only make it burning more vigorously. Isnt it equivalent to carrying faggots to put out a fire if you agree to sue for peace at the cost of the land of the State of Wei?"Though Su Dais argument was very convincing, the king accepted the suggestion of those officials and gave away to the State of Qin a large area of the land of the State of Wei. For the king of the State of Wei was cowardly and only cared for peace at the moment.As might be expected,the Qin army assaulted the State of Wei on a large scale in 225 B.C.,surrounding the capital city Daliang and flooding it by digging open the dykes of the Huanghe River.The State of Wei was finally destroyed by the State of Qin.This story appears in the Historical Records Written by Sima Qian.The set phrase"carrying faggots to put out a fire"is used to mean adopting a wrong method to save a situation and ending up by making it worse.

战国末期，秦国向魏国接连发动大规模的进攻，魏国无力抵抗，大片土地都被秦军占领了。到公元前273年，秦国又一次向魏国出兵，势头空前猛烈。

魏王把大臣们召来，愁眉苦脸地问大家有没有使秦国退兵的办法。大臣们由于经过多年的战乱，提起打仗就吓得哆嗦，谁也不敢谈“抵抗”二字。在这大兵压境的危急时刻，多数大臣都劝魏王，用黄河以北和太行山以南的大片土地为代价，向秦王求和。

谋士苏代听了这些话，很不以为然，忙上前对魏王说：“大王，他们是因为自己胆小怕死，才让您去卖国求和，根本不为国家着想。您想，把大片土地割让给秦国虽然暂时满足了秦王的野心，但秦国的欲望是无止境的，只要魏国的土地没割完，秦军就不会停止进攻我们。”

说到这里，苏代讲了一个故事：从前有一个人，他的房子起火了，别人劝他快用水去浇灭大火，但他不听，偏抱起一捆柴草去救火，是因为他不懂得柴草不但不能灭火反而能助长火势的道理。大王若同意拿着魏国土地去求和，不就等于抱着柴草救火吗？”

尽管苏代讲得头头是道，但是胆小的魏王只顾眼前的太平，还是依大臣们的意见把魏国大片土地割让给秦国。到公元225年，果然秦军又向魏国大举进攻，包围了国都大梁，掘开黄河大堤让洪水淹没了大梁城，魏国终于被秦国灭掉了。

故事出自《史记魏世家》。成语“抱薪救火”比喻用错误的方法去消灭祸害，结果反而使祸害扩大。

Yruesday January lst Sunny

Its New Years Day today. This morning when I got up, I heardsomebody

singing a love song. It was mum! Ifelt very strange because Iknew mum didnt

enjoy popular songs. And I didnt think it was suitable formy middle-aged mother

to sing any love songs. Whats more, dad wasfollowing what mum was singing.

"What had happened to them?" Then Inoticed a box with a small card on the table.

I got close to it carefully andunderstood then. As a matter of fact, it was

their 15th marriage anniversarytoday. Thats why they were so happy. When seeing

their happiness, I alsofelt happy.

My dear classmate,

Congratulations on your passing CET-4. You have set me an example because I have to learm from you. In past two years, you have been working so hard at English that you have lost about 10 kilograms of your weight. You recited every CET-4 word; you learned some of the sample writings by heart; you slept less because of this test. I really appreciate your diligence.

I hope that you can continue with your English studies and enter for CET-6 next year. Good luck in your life and work!

Yours,

Lele
