感恩，是个熟悉而又陌生的字眼。我们也要感恩，更要学会感恩。

我们将临期末考试之际，复习就成了头等大事。因为我们班就是一群乌鸦，上次圣诞节活动时，被书记逮了一个正着。书记拿老师出气。老师拿我们出气。就因为这事，老师给我们上了n堂教育政治思想课。说：你们就不能体谅体谅老师，我一天站在讲台上为你们讲课，你们一等我走了就叽叽喳喳，男生和女生一天就知道说。我教书十几年，从没带过你们这帮学生。要是有机会，我现在就不给你们带了。

我又不是稀罕那两个奖金呀，总比被你们活活气死好。你们一天把老师急得生病，我还想多活几年那，大不了不管你们了。你们还懂不懂得感恩老师，感谢老师呀！屡次的教育让我们斗志昂扬的奋战激情，都快磨完了。我们上完教育课后，心里都拔凉拔凉的。我们应该感谢老师，感谢他教育我们多年。可是感恩是多方面的，并不代表你考好了就是感谢老师了。我认为我们不仅应该感恩于老师，老师更应该感恩于学生。我打一个比方，学生如果不愿意接受老师的教育，请问，不计其数的教师是不是都丢了饭碗呢？假如我们都不愿上学，请问教师这个行业又怎能诞生呢？

既然学生应该感恩老师，那么老师更因该感恩与学生为他们找到了饭碗。这个社会也应该如此。世界上如果没有小偷，那么警察从何而来那？世界上没有垃圾，又从那里来的清洁工呢？如果得不到群众的支持，领导们去管谁呢？父母如果破坏孩子的立场，又怎会得到孩子的尊重呢？

我们想一想，我们做到了感恩吗？小偷和警察懂得互相尊重，清洁工懂得没有垃圾就没有工作，领导懂得尊重人民才方可深得民心感恩，如此简单，你我快行动吧！

Joy in living comes from having fine emotions, trusting them, giving them the freedom of a bird in the open. Joy in living can never be assumed as a pose, or put on from the outside a mask. People who have this joy don’t need to talk about it, they radiate it. They just live out their joy and let it splash its sunlight into other lives as nature as a bird sings.

生活的乐趣来源于良好的情绪，信赖这些情绪，并任由它们如鸟儿高飞于天空般的自由自在。生活的乐趣是无法靠姿态摆出来的，也无法用带上一张面具来伪装。拥有这种乐趣的人们无需挂在嘴上，他们自然会焕发出欢乐的气息。他们自己生活在快乐当中，也将这样的快乐自然而然的感染着他人，犹如是鸟儿就必将歌唱。

We can never get it from working for it directly. It comes, like happiness, to those who are aiming at something higher. It’s a byproduct of great, simple living. The joy of living comes from what we put into our living, not from what we seek to get from it.

直接追求生活的乐趣却只会使乐趣远离我们，它与幸福一样青睐胸有大志的人。生活过的高雅，简单就会产生出乐趣。它是我们对生活的投入，而非所求。

[生活的乐趣英语作文及翻译

人们都知道“山感恩地，方成其高峻;海感恩溪，方成其博大;鲜花感恩雨露，因为雨露滋润它成长……”这句话。而人呢?人一定要感恩父母，因为是父母给了我们生命，给了我一个幸福美满而又和谐的家。

父母为我们做了这么多，难道我们就无动于衷吗?难道父母就应该为我们操劳一辈子吗?难道我们就不该怀着感恩之心，去感恩那些昼夜不分，为了孩子而牺牲自己健康和安逸生活的父母吗?他们对孩子是那样呵护有加。他们就像一只大鸟，在电闪雷鸣、倾盆大雨中，仍然坚强地屹立着，让小鸟们躲到自己的羽翼之下，不让小鸟淋湿一根羽毛。大鸟的这种精神，不正是父母对孩子的关爱吗?

感恩父母是每个人应有的、最起码的良知，确切地说，更是建立和睦家庭，构建和谐社会的思想基础。所以，我们一定要怀着感恩之心，去感谢自己的父母。

记得那是一个初冬的夜晚，那天夜里风刮得很大。不巧的是，我突然发起了高烧。当时，爸爸不在家。妈妈急得满头大汗，抱起我就往村西的医务室奔去。当时的天十分黑，真可谓伸手不见五指!但妈妈抱着我，深一脚、浅一脚地向前奔跑。在路上，我清清楚楚地听到妈妈粗重的喘息声。不知是妈妈的汗水，还是她焦急的眼泪，温热地淌在我的脸上，顿时，一股暖流涌遍了我的全身。妈妈为我付出了太多太多，难道不应该去感激她吗?

这样的事，只是母爱的冰山一角，也是天下父母的一个缩影。那么作为子女，不应当感恩父母吗?我认为：感恩使人懂得人生，感恩也可以使我们懂得道理，感恩更使我们懂得孝心与公德、义务与良知……总而言之，“感恩”这两个重要的字眼儿是多么让人回味无穷啊!真是应了那三句话了：

感恩如海，情感作舟，泛舟于海，方知海之宽广。

感恩如山，情感为径，取径于山，方知山之高大。

感恩如歌，情感是曲，和曲为歌，方知歌之动听。

今天，是感恩节。以前都是爸爸妈妈冲茶喝的，如果是我冲茶都是要爸爸妈妈叫我去冲我才去冲的。

今天晚上，吃饭了，我就吃快一点饭。哈!吃完了!我就趁爸爸妈妈吃饭的一点时间来冲茶。奶奶说：“哎，你在搞什么呀?”奶奶一说我就慌了!因为我怕爸爸妈妈听见到奶奶说：“哎，你在搞什么呀?”这句话爸爸妈妈就会跑过来看。于是，我就又小声又着急的说：“不要在讲了!再讲我就完成不了作业了!”冲茶很简单，方法：“先放一点茶叶进去杯子里面，然后在加上热水。

冲茶就完成了，”冲好了茶之后，我就把茶乘进爸爸妈妈的房间说：“爸爸妈妈，感恩节快乐!”

She has short black hair，two big eyes and a small mouth. She is very cute. I like playing with her. We are in the same class. I like to read books but she likes playing games. She likes to eat popcorn and ice creams. I like them， too. Her favourite food is fish， so she is clever. She loves her cat. She often plays with her. The cat likes Mary，too. They are cute.

with the development of technology, people can do some operations to make

their faces look prefect, even to look much younger than their real ages. when

we see the commercial ads, we can find the stars look gorgeous, we are so envy

about their young faces. but to me, i think the secret of keeping young is not

by surgery operation, but to keep a healthy lifestyle. today, young people are

living an unhealthy life, they like to stay up and wake up at the noon. young

people form the habit of taking activity at night while sleeping in the day. how

terrible it is, they are damaging their bodies, their bodies will get older than

the normal speed. if people sleep early and wake up in the morning, do some

exercises and keep the balance diet, they will look young. so don’t expect the

surgery to help look young, it is harmful, only the healthy lifestyle does.

随着科技的发展，人们可以通过一些手术来让他们的脸看起来完美，甚至看起来比实际的年龄年轻。当我们看到商业广告时，可以发现明星看起来很漂亮，嫉妒他们年轻的容颜。但是对于我来说，我觉得保持年轻的秘密不是通过外科手术，而是保持健康的生活方式。今天，年轻人的生活方式很不健康，他们喜欢熬夜，中午才起床。年轻人养成了在晚上活动，白天睡觉的习惯。这是多么糟糕啊，他们是在损害自己的身体，他们的身体比正常的速度老化得快。如果人们早睡早起，做运动，保持平衡的饮食，他们会看起来年轻。所以不要期望通过外科手术来变得年轻，那是有害的，唯有健康的生活习惯才能让你年轻。

if you only thanksgiving parents may be too narrow. we would also like to live thanksgiving. as long as grateful, then your life will be happier! life is fair, she will not deceive you, as long as you pay, there will be a return. despite the sometimes smooth, sometimes despite the numerous reefs; singing, even though at times laughing, even though at times sad depression. this is the life, gave us hot suanku salt, gave us flowers and sunshine. no matter the kind of situation is that thanksgiving should live, or where colorful? !

Thanksgiving Day is a harvest festival. Traditionally, it is a time to give thanks for the harvest and expressgratitude in general. It is a holidaycelebrated primarily in Canada and the United States. While perhaps religious in origin, Thanksgiving is now primarily identified as a secular holiday.

The date and location of the first Thanksgiving celebration is a topic of modest contention. Though the earliest attested Thanksgiving celebration was on

September 8, 1565 in what is now Saint Augustine, Florida[1][2], the traditional "first Thanksgiving" is venerated as having occurred at the site of Plymouth Plantation, in 1621.

Today, Thanksgiving is celebrated on the second Monday of October in Canada and on the fourth Thursday of November in the United States. Thanksgiving dinner is held on this day, usually as a gathering of family members and friends.

Thanksgiving Dayin America is a time to offer thanks, of family gatherings and holidaymeals. A time of turkeys, stuffing, and pumpkin pie. A time for Indian corn, holiday parades and giantballoons.

在美国，感恩节是一个感谢恩赐，家庭团聚，合家欢宴的日子；是一个家家餐桌上都有火鸡、填料、南瓜馅饼的日子；是一个充满了印第安玉米、假日游行和巨型气球的日子。

Thanksgiving is celebrated on the 4th Thursday of November, which this year (2005) is November 24th.

每年十一月的最后一个星期四是感恩节，在今年（2005）则是11月24日。下面让我们来看看感恩节的由来吧：

The Pilgrims who sailed to this country aboard the Mayflower were originally members of the English Separatist Church (a Puritan sect). They had earlier fled their home in England and sailed to Holland (The Netherlands) to escape religious persecution. There, they enjoyed more religious tolerance, but they eventually became disenchantedwith the Dutch way of life, thinking it ungodly. Seeking a better life, the Separatists negotiated with a London stock company to finance a pilgrimage to America. Most of those making the trip aboard the Mayflower were non-Separatists, but were hired to protect the companys

interests. Only about one-third of the original colonists were Separatists.

乘"五月花"来到这个国度的旅行者（朝圣者）原本是英国分离者地下x会清教徒，他们的家在英国，因不堪忍受国内的宗教迫害，他们逃亡到荷兰。在荷兰，他们享受了更多的宗教信仰自由，但最终却意识到在荷兰的这种生活方式是对他们的主的亵渎。为了寻求更好的生活，他们与伦敦贸易公司协商，由该公司资助他们到美国。在这趟旅途中，船上只有大约1/3的乘客是清教徒，其他大多数人并非分离派清教徒，而是公司雇佣来保护其利益的人员（契约奴）。

The Pilgrims set ground at Plymouth Rock on December 11, 1620. Their first winter was devastating. At the beginning of the following fall, they had lost 46 of the original 102 who sailed on the Mayflower. But the harvest of 1621 was a bountiful one. And the remaining colonists decided to celebrate with a feast -- including 91 Indians who

had helped the Pilgrims survive their first year. It is believed that the Pilgrims would not have made it through the year without the help of the natives. The feast was more of a traditional English harvest festival than a true "thanksgiving" observance. It lasted three days.

1620年12月11日，旅行者们在"普利茅斯石"登陆。他们的第一个冬季是灾难性的，第二年秋天来临时，原来的102名乘客只剩下56人。但1621年他们获得了大丰收，这些幸存的殖民者们决定和帮助他们度过困难的91名印第安人一起飨宴庆祝。他们相信，若没有当地居民的帮助，他们是不可能度过这一年的。这次节日的盛宴不仅仅是一个"感恩"仪式，它更像英国传统的丰收庆典。庆典持续了三天。

Governor William Bradford sent "four men fowling" after wild ducks and geese. It is not certain that wild turkey was part of their feast. However, it is certain that they had venison. The term "turkey" was used by the Pilgrims to mean any sort of wild fowl.

总督布雷德福派了“四人捕鸟队”去捕捉野鸭和野鹅。我们现在并不能确定是否有野生火鸡在当时的筵席上，但筵席上肯定有鹿肉。当时，朝圣者用 "火鸡"一词来代表各种野禽。

Another modern staple at almost every Thanksgiving table is pumpkin pie. But it is unlikely that the first feast included that treat. The supply of flour had been long diminished, so there was no bread or pastries of any kind. However, they did eat boiled pumpkin, and they produced a type of fried bread from their corn

crop. There was also no milk, cider, potatoes, or butter. There was no

domestic cattle for dairy products, and the newly-discovered potatowas still considered by many Europeans to be poisonous. But the feast did include fish, berries, watercress, lobster, dried fruit, clams, venison, and plums.

现在，几乎每家感恩节餐桌上都有南瓜馅饼――感恩节的另一种主食。但在当年的第一次庆典上却不可能有这种食品。因为面粉奇缺，所以面包、馅饼、糕点等食物都没有。但他们却吃了煮南瓜，并用收获的玉米制成了一种油炸面包。也没有牛奶、苹果酒、土豆和黄油。没有驯养的奶牛，自然没有牛奶；而新发现的土豆被很多欧洲人认为是有毒的。第一次庆典上有鱼、草莓、豆瓣菜、龙虾、干果、蛤、鹿肉、李子等。

This "thanksgiving" feast was not repeated the following year. But in 1623, during a severe drought, the pilgrims gathered in a prayer service, praying for rain. When a long, steady rain followed the very next day, Governor Bradford proclaimed another dayof Thanksgiving, again inviting their Indian friends. It wasnt until June of 1676 that another Day of Thanksgiving was proclaimed.

紧接着的第二年(1622)却没有举行"感恩"庆典。到了1623年，发生了一场严重的旱灾，朝圣者们聚集到一起，举行了虔诚的祁雨仪式，刚好在第二天，一场充沛的大雨从天而降。威廉布雷德福总督宣布再次庆祝感恩节，并再次邀请了他们的印第安朋友。之后数年无感恩节，直到1676年6月，感恩节才再次被提出。 每年11月的第四个星期四是感恩节 (Thanksgiving Day) 。感恩节是美国人民独创的一个古老节日，也是美国人合家欢聚的节日，因此美国人提起感恩节总是倍感亲切。

感恩节的由来要一直追溯到美国历史的发端。1620年，著名的“五月花”号船满载不堪忍受英国国内宗教迫害的清教徒102人到达美洲。1620年和1621年之交的冬天，他们遇到了难以想象的困难，处在饥寒交迫之中，冬天过去时，活下来的移民只有50来人。这时，心地善良的印第安人给移民送来了生活必需品，还特地派人教他们怎样狩猎、捕鱼和种植玉米、南瓜。在印第安人的帮助下，移民们终于获得了丰收，在欢庆丰收的日子，按照宗教传统习俗，移民规定了感谢上帝的日子，并决定为感谢印第安人的真诚帮助，邀请他们一同庆祝节日。

在第一个感恩节的这一天，印第安人和移民欢聚一堂，他们在黎明时鸣放礼炮，列队走进一间用作教堂的屋子，虔诚地向上帝表达谢意，然后点起篝火举行盛大宴会。第二天和第三天又举行了摔跤、赛跑、唱歌、跳舞等活动。第一个感恩节非常成功。其中许多庆祝方式流传了300多年，一直保留到今天。

初时感恩节没有固定日期，由各州临时决定。直到美国独立后的1863年，林肯总统宣布感恩节为全国性节日

Autumn, the water is also cold, my mother is afraid to freeze me, wash clothes, also cant, the dirty clothes in the home are all washed by mothers clothes, then what do? By the way, wash your mothers feet!"

The mother is happy sitting on the sofa, narrowing her eyes, I carefully wash, the mother said: "the son grows up, will give the mother to wash the feet." After hearing this, I was very happy.

感恩你的朋友——读柳林风声有感

朋友在你困难时给予你帮住，在你快乐时跟你分享，在你伤心事给予你安慰，在你错误时给予你正确的方向。朋友是我们人茫茫生道路上的一盏明灯给我们希望与导航，朋友是我们的一把大伞为我们遮风挡雨。他们在我们的人生中起到了很多的作用，是我们生活的一盏灯。我们要感恩他们，他们为我们做了太多太多。柳林风生里的蟾蜍，挥霍家产，最终进了监狱，好不容易逃出狱，自己的家已经被黄鼠狼占领了。是河鼠安慰她，鼹鼠鼓励他，老灌教育他，他们帮助他抢回蟾宅，端正心态。改变了蟾蜍。可见朋友是多么的重要呀。

朋友是狂风巨浪中的一叶小舟，把我们带到平安的陆地，朋友是黑夜里的星星，让我们不再恐慌，朋友是迷途森林中的指标，指引我们正确的方向我们要感恩他们，感恩他们给我们给我们的人生道路上给我们做出了重要领导。

Ground rules

One of my favorite teachers at Southeast Missouri State University in Cape

Girardeau was known of his droll sense of humor. Explaining his ground rules to

one freshman class, he said, "Now I know my lectures can often be dry and

boring, so I don‘t mind if you look at your watches during class. I do, however,

object to your pounding them on the desk to make sure they‘re still

running."

基本原则

位于吉拉多海角的密苏里东南州立大学有一位我非常喜欢的老师，他奇特的幽默感很是出名。在对一个新生班级讲解他的基本原则时，他说：“我知道我的讲课可能经常会枯燥乏味，了无生趣，所以如果你们在上课时看表我并不介意。不过我坚决反对你们将表在课桌上猛敲看它们是不是还在走。”
