英文高中自我介绍推荐20篇

大家好，我是XXX，很高兴能和大家在同一班里学习，这是一种缘分也是一种福气。我知道在座的各位都是很优秀出类拔萃的学生，望在以后的日子里请大家多多指教.我很喜欢交朋友，我想和班上的每位同学都能成为朋友，为这三年写下最光辉最绚丽的一章。我希望我们××班能成为高一年级最闪亮的一颗星星。假如我们能互相帮助，互相学习，我相信，第一肯定是我们班，有句俗话说爱拼才会赢。在此我祝愿每位同学通过自己的努力学习三年后都有好成绩，考上自己理想的大学。

我以为我不会再微笑，在那个阴沉的下午，我用我的泪水肢解了我最后的笑容。风轻狂地刮着，粉红色的成绩单摇曳着，我最后的笑容已经随风飘逝，无处可归。我像一片伤残的落叶，在风的边缘处挣扎，一张小条子遮盖了我的全部，仕途确似黑暗吗，朦胧中来到文班。

或许十七岁的年纪应该没有这样的残酷。遥想当年的我，轻狂。一直都不是严格的好学生，叛逆的性格张牙舞爪。自初中以来，年纪稍长，自以为很有深度，不过是烂菜叶而已。高中以来，被分到不咋地的班级，更加的无法无天。现在来到文班，可能会垫底，更加可能会夺冠，因为我崛起了。

性格比较内向，不大说话，读书较多，但也没什么墨水。无聊时多爱乱画，曾经也学过绘画，本想报考艺术生，谁知爸妈极力反对，此事不了了之。一直惧怕学理，但又无可奈何，国人思想偏理，所谓“学好数理化，走遍全天下都不怕”，只好耐着性子慢慢啃读，谁知成效不大，成绩似乎是出奇的慢性子，始终不肯向前迈一步。当成绩单下来时，我的多彩的暑假已经消失的无影无踪，随之而来的是一整天的小骂，第二天我便寻觅这补课，逃出了家门。五科的狂补，暑假过的漫长，理化生仍止步不前，不得已只好转文，开始我新的生活。

或许十七岁的年纪本该如此，也许开始成熟的生命梦想缤纷，即便过着风下雨也要勇敢前进，相信一切都会平息，一切都会重新开始，一切将会充满希望，

个子比较高，据说是小时候龙牡壮骨颗粒的功劳，那是爸妈一桶一桶的往回买，造就了我1米8的个头，其实有人羡慕我个子高，但他们都是局外人。我并不觉得有莫大好处。比如说个高下楼都要碰头，我以被自家楼下的檐碰过了n次了。一回老家，都是旧时的木门，一不小心更会大碰不已。再说走在路上，还要时常担心暗处袭来的枝条在脸上划下，还有拍座位总是在后面。个高并不是错，只是不是时候，等以后再长高不行吗?

平时也多爱上网，衣带渐宽终不悔，为网消得人憔悴。当年热火黑客的高超技术，不料资质尚浅，在家中电脑中了n次病毒，请来n次维修人员之后，惨然淡出江湖。不是我胆怯，而是电脑维修期一到，再也不堪忍受那高额的费用了。

学习方面有些脸红，不太刻苦。平时有些懒，笔记虽有很多，但没有一本是写完的。在我愚昧的看来，大好青春只为学习而操劳，实在不忍。但时光如白驹过隙，两年后的人生巨槛正等着我跨越，所以我也要痛改前非，完成自己的使命。

这就是我，希望老师通过此文加以了解我，日后多多辅导，让我更快的进步!

My name is zhouyuanpei.I`m 12 years oid.II`m famly is 3 pepo .My father my mather and I.My father is very clever ,He is worker .My mother is very nice .She is teacher .I like eat banana and pear.I like swimming and palying Table tennis. You like me?

Raising the worlds largest kindness, than parents. Worth we use to cherish life, with a sincere heart to appreciate, with practical action to gratitude.

"Sheep have knelt milk, crow has righteousness". And people also should have the thought of filial, dont wait until the desire filial and affection, eventually left the life of a big allready tried, want to dont regret in the future, from now on will be grateful parents from around things, return parents. Returns are also not necessarily material rewards, is more of a spiritual and emotional. Even in overseas, study abroad, we point to with a grateful heart. As the century old ba jin said: "I am spinning silkworm mulberry leaves to eat." silkworm paid, also received, get the praise and admiration of people.

Parents are the first teachers for our lives, from the moment a child is born, his life was poured parents endless love and blessing. Perhaps, parents cant give us a life of luxury, but they gave the irreplaceable - life in a persons life

Parents for their children to hold up a piece of the sky of love, when you get hurt, cry, sad, sad, you can always come back here, enjoy the love of parents. Thanksgiving parents, even if it is a small thing, can let them feel gratified. I remember CCTV has broadcast a public service ads: a little boy, struggling with a basin of water, naive said to his mother: "mom, wash feet!" Is such an AD today, still hit, relieving it feelings and moving heart, dont know how many people infected with. Many people shed tears, not to a lovely boy, also for that one to the deep love, and heartfelt gratitude to the mother.

The classmates, let us learn to be grateful parents! With a grateful heart to treat their parents, with a sincere heart to communicate with their parents, dont take it for granted that their parents do anything for us, they brought us to this beautiful world, is great enough, and will we raise, thanked, silently pay for us, we dont blindly to demand their pay, institute of Thanksgiving, with a grateful heart, grateful parents!

世上最大的恩情,莫过于父母的养育之恩.值得我们用生命去珍爱,用至诚的心去感激,用切实行动去报恩.

“羊有跪乳之情,鸦有反哺之义”.而人也应有尽孝之念,莫等到欲尽孝而亲不在,终留下人生的一大遗撼,要想将来不后悔莫及,从现在就要从身边的小事去感恩父母,回报父母.回报也不一定非的是物质上的回报,更多的是精神上的、情感上的.就算是远渡重洋、留学海外,我们时刻要怀揣着一颗感恩的心.正如世纪老人巴金所说：“我是春蚕吃的桑叶就要吐丝.”春蚕付出了,也获得了,得到的却是人们的赞美与钦佩.

父母是我们人生的第一任老师,从一个孩子呱呱坠地的那一刻起,他的生命就倾注了父母无尽的爱与祝福.或许,父母不能给我们奢华的生活,但是,他们给予了一个人一生中不可替代的——生命

父母为子女撑起了一片爱的天空,当你受伤时,哭泣时,忧郁时,难过时,你可以随时回到这里,享受父母的爱.感恩父母,哪怕是一件微不足道的事,都能让他们感到欣慰.我记得央视曾播过的一个公益广告：一个小男孩,吃力的端着一盆水,天真的对妈妈说：“妈妈,洗脚!”就是这样的一部广告时至今日,仍在热播,它的感情动人心腑,不知感染了多少人.很多人为其流泪,不止为了可爱的男孩,也为了那一份至深的爱,和发自内心对母亲的感恩.

同学们,让我们学会感恩父母吧!用一颗感恩的心去对待父母,用一颗真诚的心去与父母交流,不要再认为父母是理所当然帮我们做任何事情的,他们把我们带到这美丽的世界,已经是足够的伟大,且将我们养育成人,不求回报,默默的为我们付出,我们就别再一味地索求他们的付出,学会感恩,怀着一颗感恩的心,去感恩父母吧!

My name is XXX. I am a fresh graduate student majoring in preschool education. I think I have some advantages in preschool education.

First of all, the social situation, the kindergarten teachers are generally female, this to some boys physical and mental health have indirect effect, so the lack of unique masculinity and tend to maternal. Therefore, it is a very important job to promote the development of male kindergarten teachers and promote their sexual education. In addition, I have a great interest in the preschool education industry.

Of course, I engaged in this industry for preschool education will have a lot of difficulties, I also have many shortcomings, I understand the characteristics of education is just some superficial understanding of my own, and my lack of work experience, professional position. These I can clearly see, I believe that I had a strong will, for their own shortcomings, I will make unremitting efforts and work in training, learning to make up, so as to enhance their ability to constantly improve themselves. For the reform of traditional education, although I will not play a key role, but I also hope to contribute to their own strength, because I carry the ideals of early childhood education career.

Finally, I sincerely hope that the leadership of the garden will give me a chance to realize my dream, and I believe that I will eventually be qualified for the job, not strength, but luck. Also, I will make my biggest contribution to the garden.

首先在这里声明：因为我姐姐和妈妈走了，临走之前姐姐把她的会员给了我，作文本里“她”的介绍是姐姐的，而现在这个自我介绍才是本人的，高中作文介绍。

一张瓜子脸上嵌着以上炯炯有神的大眼睛，高高的鼻梁，一张樱桃似的小嘴就是我，王 一 嫣!今年10岁了，在海城市验军小学三年级读书，成绩一般般。

活泼开朗就是我的性格，不是我自夸我其实也是一个很有爱心的小姑娘哦。

记得那次青海玉树大地震，我从电视上看到小朋友们失去了自己可亲可敬的家人，失去了温暖的家园，失去了朝夕相处的小伙伴……知道这些以后，我哭了，当时脑子里想的全都是：我能为灾区小朋友做些什么?突然眼前一亮……存钱罐，对呀!我可以给灾区小朋友买文具呀!说买就买，于是我拿起存钱罐去文具店买文具，还剩了一些钱捐给了希望工程虽然没有亲眼看到小朋友们，但我能想象的出小朋友们收到文具时那一张张天真的笑脸……

我的爱好很广泛，以下是我曾经的两大爱好：

一：上网

以前我是个十足的“小网迷”，这是为什么的，还得从去年暑假说起，高中作文大全《高中作文介绍》。

暑假，爸爸给我买了台电脑，叫我从网上学习，我嘴里嘀咕着：明明知道我不爱学习，怎么还让我学。正巧爸爸当时加班，不回家，所以家里只有我一个人，凭我的性格怎么会学习呢?那天，我在网上随便点击时，发现“游戏”二字，好奇心把我带了进去。哇!这里的游戏可真多呀!我随便点了一个，就这么一个游戏就让我上瘾了，从那时起我几乎每时每刻，每分每秒都泡在游戏里，成绩也随之下降。那次期末考试，我还没及格，在学校被老师批评了一顿不说，回到家还得听爸爸的批评，但这丝毫没有减少我对游戏的迷恋程度。爸爸和姐姐想方设法帮我戒掉网瘾，但都不管用，也不知道是爸爸自己想的“损”招，还是别人帮他想的，竟然趁我上学时把电脑寄存在同事家里，就这样电脑离我远去了，渐渐的我戒掉了网瘾。

二：看书

自从上次戒掉了网瘾，姐姐怕我学习跟不上，于是不惜重金给我买：练习册，AB卷，XX教材，课外书……刚开始我不爱写，不爱看，但后来在姐姐的一再强迫下才开起书来，后来渐渐的被书中的内容吸引住了，接着我变得对书不可自拔了，后来不知是爸爸和姐姐想了什么办法才帮我戒掉了“书瘾”。

这就是我，你喜欢和我做朋友吗?

尊敬的老师，同学们，你们好。

我叫xx，这名字可能有人听说过，也许有人很陌生，但今天的这次介绍，我将要让你们了解我，认识我。我是今年的九月来到xx一中的，毕业xx学校，心中也是满心欢喜。在平时的学习中，动脑筋的问题想得确实很快，在数学、物理等计算上能过得了关，而文史类的读物，我更有我独特的见解。认为时间最宝贵的是生命、时间与精神。认为会感受与思考的不仅使大脑，还有心灵。在这几天中，我认识了一些同学，彼此之间的沟通不仅很融洽，而且增进了友谊。人生地不熟的地方，我去得多了，这不是第一次也不是最后一次，因为我，还会在以后的社会上这个更大的陌生世界去拼搏，去生存，为了给将来打下藤好的基础，所以，今天的我，要比以前更努力。平常我们几乎在用肉眼看这个世界，有人说：这样会看得真，看得失。但我经常用新看这个世界，原来闭上眼睛之后的感受，是那么前所未有的清晰。只提上的感受是比不上精神的振奋的。所以鲁迅弃医从文，也可能是想到了这一点吧。之所以，语文的地位对我来说是更高的一个层次，是精神崛起的寄托。

这就是我，一个思想极为复杂而可望新事物的人，所以对未来，也是想象的并不是很美，但只要我努力去做，相信这个世界对我来说是可以向往的未来。希望能在班上大家能多多指教，谢谢！

我是一个性格开朗的女孩子，所以我的兴趣爱好很广泛。热爱运动。在我闲暇的时候喜欢打篮球，乒乓球，排球，溜冰。一个人在家的时候喜欢上网，或者听歌。不太喜欢太长时间的沉浸在书的世界里，家人曾经告诉过我，劳逸结合是最好的。说到我的家人，那我就要说说我的家庭了。我家里只有三口人，我的奶奶，爷爷和我自己。我爷爷是个工程师，他平时对我很严厉，教会我很多东西。奶奶是个很慈祥的老人，对我的生活照顾得无微不至。所以没有父母的我在他们的照顾下，童年和成长都充满了快乐。

我喜欢酒店管理这个专业，是因为我喜欢生活在一个有严格管理秩序的环境里。我对我的专业充满自信和希望，只要努力，就会有收获，这是我的座右铭。既然我选择了这个专业，就会沿着我这条路，努力的，坚持不懈的走下去。

谢谢各位老师。我的介绍完毕。

Yuandan is the first day of the lunar calendar. It is the day when the earth has circled the sun for one round and is beginning another circling. It represents a new beginning when people send off the old days and welcome the new ones. As the first day of the year, Yuandan has been considered to be the most important festival since the ancient times.

Customs

1. Kaisui(beginning of the year): According to the Chinese traditional custom, starting from haishi(9p.m. to 11p.m.)of the last evening of the twelfth lunar month, each family must prepare offering s to deities at the altar. At the same time, they too prepare food for the New Year day: The whole family will then stay awake together to attend to the year(called shou sui). After haishi, zishi(11p.m. to 1a.m.)will come, and this is the arrival of New Year(Yuandan). At this moment, people begin the celebration with fireworks. Vegetarian and sweet foods will then be placed are the altar for offerings, and incense be burned to welcome the deities. In the ancient times, it was believed that haishi connected the two years and thus was called kaisui.

At the same night, some families will follow the instruction in Tongshu and place preparing altar in the direction of the "fortune deity" during the "fortune time" to receive the deity. If the direction of the "fortune deity" is at the "ill position", people will choose to receive "happy deity" or "noble deity" instead.

2. There is an apparent difference in the custom of food taking on Yuandan between the Chinese in the northern and southern regions. The northern Chinese has the habit of taking jiao zi(dumpling made of flour with vegetable and meat wrapped inside). Some people may put a sweet or a coin inside jiao zi, hoping to have a sweet year after tasting the sweet and a wealthy year after tasting the coin. on the other hand, the southern Chinese have the taboo for killing on Yuandan. Therefore, they do not take meat in tee morning of Yuandan, so as to avoid bloodshed or mutual slaughter. In order to evade misfortune, they have the first meal of this day without meat. Instead, they take vegetarian food for the sake of virtue.

3. What is special during the New Year is that parents or elders will distribute red packets(ang pao or ya sui qian)to the children. People in the ancient times were more particular in giving away the red packets: the distribution took place on the eve of New Year so that the kids could suppress the past year and enter the New Year. Ya sui has the meaning of overcoming the unpredictable future. Representing the wishes for the healthy psychological growth of the children, ya sui qian symbolises the elders hope to see their children overcome all the unpredictable elements brought by the "year".
