篇2:以成功为话题的高一英语
全文共 1126 字
+ 加入清单There is no doubt that we all want to be successful. But what’s the main
concern of the way to success? From Abraham Lincoln’s famous remark, “Give me
six hours to chop down a tree, and I will spend the first four sharpening the
axe”, I learn that if we want to achieve success, we must make full preparation
for it.
Only if we are well prepared, can we catch the opportunity which occurs
once in a while. In our daily life, we have to expand our horizon and lay a
solid foundation for success. It will be a long way to be successful thus we
have to accumulate our knowledge day by day. And we can’t achieve success in one
or two days. It will help us solve problems more efficiently if we have a broad
horizon. What’s more, opportunities always occur out of our expectation so we
have to make ourselves well prepared. If we prepared, we will catch up with it
whenever it comes up.
Opportunities give priorities to the people who make preparation for them.
What’s more, success goes along with opportunities. We should develop the
ability to solve problems in different and efficient ways therefore we can make
our way to success more easily.
篇3:行动铸就成功高二

+ 加入清单你想成功吗?相信大家的回答都是一个字——想。但光想没有用,光说也没有用,只有行动才是成功的秘方。
行动能让你开始思考。如果不行动,我们便步子道这件事该如何去做,更不会思考怎样去做好这件事。达芬奇从小便想当画家,他去学画画时,开始只是光看别人画自己不动手,老师让他画一张画,画的并不好。可后来老师让他每天画鸡蛋,不停地画,达芬奇便开始思考如何把这个蛋画好,画到极致,最终成为著名画家。如果他不去画鸡蛋,便不会思考怎么把蛋的形状、颜色、光照画得完美。所以想做一件事情,必需从行动开始。
行动能使你变得卓越。只有行动,才能让你熟悉你正在做的这件事情,即使你开始做的并不好,或者别人都不同意你做这件事情,但笨鸟先飞,你坚持去做,定比别人卓越。著名乒乓球运动员李晓霞十分矮小,她天生热爱乒乓球,并坚持着每天刻苦训练打乒乓球。她被省体育队选去了,可教练说她太矮了,不适合打乒乓球,便不让她入伍。如此三次后,教练终于留下了她。他希望教练不看扁他,她便花上比别人多两倍的时间训练,终于获得了20--年伦敦奥运会女子乒乓球冠军。是她的坚持行动,才使她如此卓越。虽然她有天生的不足,但她后天的行动却依然能弥补这些不足。
行动能让人收获成功。行动了,就必定会有你应得的收货。孙杨从小就怀揣着游泳梦,他小时候条件不太好,便到河里脏水里游。后来,他进了国家队,他每天都不忘自己的梦想,并每时每刻都在为此努力奋斗。终于,他收获到了他应得的成功——20--年伦敦奥运会他得了男子游泳冠军,他捧着奖牌,激动不已。那奖牌是他用每天游几万米的汗水铸成的呀!如果他每天都在家睡觉,胜利就不属于他,只有为自己的梦想而行为,才能收获梦想。
是的,行动铸就成功。现代社会,竞争日益激烈,各行各业都有过量的人去争夺。如果你想成功,成为数亿人的佼佼者,那么就从现在开始,为着心中的梦想去行动吧!

warm motherly love.
The sea is like a poem; it jumps; like a picture, rich in meaning; and like
a symphony, vast and mighty...... It is like a mirror; sometimes calm, sometimes
filled with rage, overwhelming, to sail the boat overturned. In my mind, the sea
is blue world, is also the cradle of life. Pregnant with many free and small
life. The sea is so mysterious, so charming!
Now the sea has changed. The sea is no longer clear, it becomes muddy and
dirty. Washed up on the beach, left is no longer alive and kicking the fish
shrimp, instead of the piles of rubbish, but also mixed with a lot of dead fish
shrimp, stinking. Why is that? Its all because of us. When people admire the
beauty of the seaside, they throw the foul rubbish into the sea. There are also
people living on the beach, the toilet drain pipe to the bottom of the sea.
Whats worse is that the factory waste water flows into the sea in large stocks,
and the sea is dyed in a strange color. Led to the birth of a lot of lack of
brains, low IQ infants, our next generation - bright eyes [voice tender], the
face of the next generation of red, will never see the beautiful blue sea.
Someone once did an experiment. He compared a basin of water to the ocean,
and dropped a drop of ink into the sea. Immediately, the ink slowly spread out,
became shallow and disappeared. The sea water was almost as clean as ever. If
the ink kept dropping, the color of the sea would be deeper and darker, and
eventually it would become a basin of black water. 6 billion people on the earth
produce large quantities of living waste water and industrial pollution every
day. Like ink, it has been injected into the clear sea water. It has become a
polluted lake.
To the health of our human beings, to see the beautiful blue sea for our
children and grandchildren. Let us act now, love the ocean as much as we love
life, and love the common blue home of mankind.

+ 加入清单Some people like to work alone while others enjoy teamwork. In my opinion,
everyone had better learn to work with others together because teamwork is
definitely necessary and important in modern society.
First, working in a team provides a chance for us to communicate with each
other. Just as the saying goes, “many hands make light job.” Working in a team,
teammates share their ideas with each other, which is helpful to create a better
achievement. Second, working in a team is a way to broaden our horizon.
Teammates in a team can learn something from each other because they are from
different places, owning various experiences and hold different views towards
things. Therefore, getting along with other teammates is also a process of
increasing our knowledge. Finally, working in a team is also a way to establish
our friendship. Teammates in a team have chances to help each other, to solve
the problems together, to share the happiness of being successful, which make a
great contribution to establishing friendship. Thus, working in a team is one of
the most effective ways to extend our personal relationships.
To sum up, to learn to work in a team is really necessary and important and
we should try to enjoy it.
篇12:有关压力英语初二

+ 加入清单As the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of
relaxation.Once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go
from morning till night,it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is essential for
a healthy mind and body. Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is
no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing as it is often supposed to
be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose
to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control can it lead to poor
performance and iiihealth. The amount of stress a person can withstand depends
very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress, and such
characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities. Others
lose heart at the first signs of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress,
in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact, we make a
choice between "flight or fight"and in more primitive days the choices made the
difference between life or death.The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so
extreme, but however little the stress, it involves the same response. It is
when such a reaction lasts long, through continued exposure to stress, that
health becomes endangered. Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and
heart diseases have established links with stress. Since we cannot remove stress
from our lives (it would be unwise to do so even if we could), we need to find
ways to deal with it.

If we lose courage, we can’t do anything, because we don’t dare to do anything;

+ 加入清单Now more and more bike sharing brands have emerged, such as ofo, Mobai,
Wukong bicycle, Xiaoming bicycle and so on, which are convenient for our travel.
As long as we download a software, we can pay some money to rent a car. However,
since I saw some phenomena, I have asked myself, "is bike sharing convenient or
harmful?"
Bike sharing is very popular recently. Ofo software or other sharing
software can be found in almost all mobile phones of "mobile phone family".
However, once my mother came home full of anger, scared me to speak. I shuddered
and asked, "Mom, what makes you so angry?" She put the bag in her hand on the
table and made a loud "pa -". "Your sister helped me install an ofo software in
my mobile phone. I wanted to make it easy to ride back with good medicine, but
today I rented a" broken car "!" I was puzzled: "ofo still has a broken car
"That is, otherwise, how could my feet be bruised?" She moved her foot to me,
and a black wheel mark was still visible. "When I was riding, the chain was
loose. If it wasnt for my fast braking speed, I would have fallen off!" Since
then, Ive been less fond of bike sharing.
Once I went to a make-up class, I saw two workers sitting on a Mobi
bicycle, shaking and laughing. Dad was very indignant and said: "this kind of
person really does not speak of public morality! Make fun of the public car I
know that they wont do this with their cars. My heart is like bleeding. Why,
they want to "bully" bike sharing.
Once I went out to play. The weather was very good and I was in a good
mood. I look up to the side, really do not see do not know, a look scared. A man
secretly removed the wheel of an ofo and replaced it with a bad one on his own.
After that, he rode off on the ofo wheel. Only the ofo little yellow car was
lying alone, and the wheels were not installed properly. It is like a injured
little girl, whose legs have been taken away, like vanca, can not endure the
sunshine of life. At that time, my tears began to drop. Is bike sharing "shared"
or "exclusive"?
There have been news reports that a boy under 12 years old riding a shared
bicycle was run over by a car and killed. At that time, the boys mother shared
the companys money to compensate for her sons death. Its clearly her sons fault.
He didnt ride a bike before he was 12 years old. I didnt say he deserved it. But
the fact is better than eloquence. The death of her son is not the
responsibility of the sharing company, but his own fault!
I once saw a young man riding ofo without scanning the code. A middle-aged
man pushed ofo into his home. Have you ever seen someone use Mobi without
decoding as fitness equipment? The sound of chain jingling is like a demon with
a chain in his hand crawling out of hell. Thats selfish!
Someone took an image that put the broken ofo and Moby together to fill a
small parking lot. After riding shared bicycles, people park them on the side of
the road at will. As long as a passer-by gently knocks down a car, it will fall
down like a domino.
Have you ever thought that sharing resources is closely related to each of
us, but all the harm they bring is due to selfishness. Bike sharing is just one
example. Ive seen shared bookstores where people leave books on their desks
after reading, so that they cant go home. "Convenience to others, convenience to
oneself." As long as we are convenient for others, we will also benefit
ourselves.

things too quickly. So he sent them each on a quest,in turn,to go and look at a
pear tree that was a great distance away.
The first son went in the winter,the second in the spring,the third in
summer,and the youngest son in the fall.
When they had all gone and come back,he called them together to describe
what they had seen.
The first son said that the tree was ugly,bent,and twisted. The second son
said no - it was covered with green buds and full of promise.
The third son disagreed,he said it was laden with blossoms that smelled so
sweet and looked so beautiful,it was the most graceful thing he had ever
seen.
The last son disagreed with all of them;he said it was ripe and drooping
with fruit,full of life and fulfillment.
The man then explained to his sons that they were all right,because they
had each seen but one season in the tree‘s life. He told them that you cannot
judge a tree,or a person,by only one season,and that the essence of who they are
- and the pleasure,joy,and love that come from that life - can only be measured
at the end,when all the seasons are up.
If you give up when it‘s winter,you will miss the promise of your
spring,the beauty of your summer,fulfillment of your fall. Don’t let the pain of
one season destroy the joy of all the rest.

things on campus life all the time, so they have the motivation to study hard.
When they come to university, they begin to slow down their pace to study and
waste their youth.
Nowadays, a lot of college students lose motivation to move on when they
come to the new chapter of their life. Campus life seems to be relaxed and a
place to free themselves. Without the supervision from parents and teachers,
they choose to lose themselves in the computer games or all kinds of
parties.
So someone made the comment on campus life as the nursing house, which
satirized the students who wasted their precious time and youth to accomplish
nothing. It is the important stage for them to learn professional knowledge and
master skills, so as to be competitive and find their own place in the
world.
For a wise student, they make the plans and improve themselves all the
time. If we live the life as the old people in the nursing house, then it is
kind of committing suicide for a young person.

festival.During the holiday of Dragon Boat Festival,I got together with my

the Dragon Boat Races.I felt excited because the race was bustling with noise
and excitement.At Dragon Boat Festival,we also drank realgar wine.Some people
thought drank realgar wine can protect themselves from illness.Dragon Boat
Festival was interesting and I like it very much.
The Chinese Dragon Boat Festival is a significant (有意义的)holiday celebrated
(庆祝)in China, and the one with the longest history (历史最悠久). The Dragon Boat
Festival is celebrated by boat races (龙舟赛) in the shape of dragons. Competing
teams (竞争团队) row their boats forward to a drumbeat (击古)racing to reach the
finish end first.
The boat races during the Dragon Boat Festival are traditional customs
(传统习俗)to attempts to (试图)rescue (搭救) the patriotic poet (爱国诗人)Chu Yuan. Chu Yuan
drowned (溺死) on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month in 277 B.C. Chinese
citizens now throw bamboo leaves (竹叶) filled with cooked rice into the
water.
Therefore the fish could eat the rice rather than the hero poet. This later
on turned into the custom of eating tzungtzu and rice dumplings(棕子).
The celebrations is a time for protection (防护) from evil (邪恶) and disease
(疾病) for the rest of the year. It is done so by different practices such as

following year will be a lucky one.
Today, people eat bamboo-wrapped steamed glutinous(粘的) rice dumplings
called zongzi (the food originally intended to feed the fish) and race dragon
boats in memory of Qus dramatic death.
