精选优质文档-倾情为你奉上WHY SHOULD WE STUDY ENGLISH 为什么我们要学习英文If you want to ask me why we should study study English,my answer will be simple and clear. Now let me enumerate the reasons one by one in the following. In the first place, English has become an international language. If you know English, you can make a trip round the world without being misunderstood.In the second place, most valuable books, newspapers and magazines are written in English. If you wish (hope) to get knowledge, you must learn English.如果你要问我们为什么要学英语，我的答案很简单明了。现在让我来把我的理由一一列举在下面：英语已经成为一种国际语言，如果你通晓它，你可以环游世界不被人误解。大多数有价值的书籍，报纸和杂志都是用英文写的。如果你希望获得知识，你必须学习英语。MY BIRTHDAY 我的生日Yesterday was my birthday, so some of my classmates sent me presents. Mother prepared a tea party for me. I invited all of them to come and take part in it.The tea party began at half past six. There were cold drinks and refreshments. We ate,talked and laughed. We felt that we were the happiest men in the world.Time passed quickly. In a twinkling, the clock on the wall struck nine. We could not but say “Good-bye” to one another.昨天是我生日，所以有几位我的同班同学送我礼物。母亲给我准备了一个茶会。我邀请他们前来参加。茶会下午六点半开始，有冷饮和点心，我们又吃又谈又笑。我们觉得是世界上最快乐的人。时间过得很快，转瞬间，墙上的钟敲九点了，我们不得不互道再见。HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY 诚为上策There is an English proverb which says (saying) “Honesty is the best policy.” It signifies the importance of honesty.What are the benefits of honesty? If you are honest to others, they will be honest to you in return, when you are sad, they will comfort you. When you are in trouble, they will help you.There is no enumerating the evils of dishonesty here. In a word, a dishonest man will be looked down upon by others and (be) regarded as a public enemy.英国有一句谚语说“诚为上策”。它说明了诚的重要性。诚的益处是什么？如果你对他人诚实，他们也会对你诚实作为报答。当你忧伤的时候，他们会安慰你。当你处在困境中的时候，他们会帮助你。无法在这里数述不诚实的害处。一言以蔽之，一个不诚实的人会被人看轻的而且被看做一个公敌。INDUSTRY (DILIGENCE) 勤勉It is a matter of course that industry will bring us success, wealth and good luck. I am sure that a hard-working person can always succeed in the work which he wants to do. This is unchangeable truth.Idleness is the opposite of industry. It is the source of all evil. An idle man only enjoys playing and making pleasures. That he is doomed to failure is of no doubt. We should not follow his example.勤勉会带给我们成功、财富和好运是理所当然的事情。我确信一个苦干的人终是能够成功的人，这是一个无法改变的定理。懒惰是勤勉的反面，它是万恶之源。一个懒惰的人只享受玩耍和寻乐，他命中注定失败是毫无疑问的，我们不应把他作为榜样。GOOD HEALTH 良好的健康We all wish (hope) to be happy, so we should take good care of our health. Health is the best treasure (which) a man can possess. Money can do many things, but it cannot buy health. However, so long as man has good health, he can enjoy the pleasures of human life.In order to insure good health we must pay attention to three things. They are-nourishing food, fresh air and proper exercise.我们大家都希望快乐，所以我们应该注重健康。健康是一个人所能拥有的最好的财富。钱能做很多事情，但是它却买不来健康。然而，只要一个人有良好的健康，他就能享受人生的乐趣。为了保证良好的健康，我们必须注意三件事情，它们是营养的食物，新鲜的空气和适量的运动。MONEY 钱Everybody wishes (hopes) to get money so that he can maintain his livelihood. In other words, money is so usefully that it is impossible for mankind to live without it. For this reason, we have an interesting proverb. It says “Money can make the world go around.” In a word, money is more powerful than anything else.However, money should not be wasted. It must be used for (some) proper purposes. We young men should form the good habit of not spending money in the wrong way.每个人为了能够维持生活，所以都希望得到钱。换句话说，钱是非常有用，所以没有它人类就无法生活。基于此种理由，我们有一句有趣的谚语“有钱能使鬼推磨”。一言以蔽之，钱比任何东西都更有力量。然而，钱不应该被浪费掉。它必须用于正当的用途上。我们年轻人应该养成不乱花钱的习惯。CHOOSING FRIENDS 选择朋友A man who is careful in choosing friends will certainly derive benefit from them. Why? Because there are more false friends than real ones. Friends who flatter you to your face are not true friends.We must make friends with those who have good character and kindness of heart. On the other hand, we should do our best to avoid keeping company with bad people.一个小心选择朋友的人一定会从他们那里获得益处。为什么？因为在这个世界上假朋友比真朋友要多，有一个真正的朋友要比一百个假朋友好得多。凡是当面奉承你的朋友都不是真正的朋友。我们必须和凡是具有良好品格和心地善良的人交朋友。反过来说，我们应尽力避免结交坏人。THRIFT 节俭There is not a (no) thrifty man but becomes a rich man sooner or later.Why? Because he will not spend such money as is unnecessary. Little by little his money will accumulate. Ten to one,he is bound to make a fortune. I do not like such men as spend their money in a wrong way. They do not know extravagance is a bad thing. It can only make them happy for the time being. In short, thrift makes poor men rich and extravagance makes rich men poor.没有一个节俭的人迟早不成为一个富翁。为什么？因为他决不花不必要花的钱。渐渐他的钱就会聚集起来。十之八九，他一定会发财的。我不喜欢那种乱花钱的人。他们不知道奢侈是件坏事。它只能够使他们暂时快乐而已。总而言之，节俭使穷人变富，奢侈使富人变穷。WHERE THERE IS A WILL,THERE IS A WAY 有志者事竟成The secret of success (The key to success) is not so much money as a strong will. A great man is one who has a strong will and an indomitable spirit. In other words, if a man does not have a strong will to win(get) the final victory, he will never succeed in his life. He is no more than a failure. It is quite obvious that there is no difficult thing(nothing difficult) in the world. If you make up your mind to do it, you will certainly accomplish your end. That stands to reason.成功的要诀不是金钱而是一个坚强的意志（用not so muchas）。一个大人物是一个具有坚强意志和不屈不挠精神的人。换句话说，如果一个人没有坚强意志去获得最后胜利的人，他终其一生永远不会成功。他只不过是（no more than）一个失败者。THE VALUE OF TIME 爱惜时光An English proberb says that time is money. I consider it wrong. Why? Because we all know that we can earn money by work but can not in any way get back time(in anyway). For this reason, we may(can) say that time is more valuable than money.Many people do not know the value of time. It(this) is indeed a great pity. We must bear(keep) in mind that wasting time is equal towasting your life.英国有句谚语说，时间就是金钱。我认为这是不对的。为什么？因为我们大家都知道我们能够用工作赚钱，但无论如何都无法把时间争取回来。基于此种理由，我们可以说时间比金钱更珍贵。许多人不爱惜时光，这确实是可惜的，我们必须记住浪费时间等于浪费生命。HOW EXERISE HELPS 运动的利益If our bodies are not strong, our spirit to do things will certainly be quite dull. And at the same time, we are lack of energy(ies) to study.Diseases will only attack the weak, but not the strong.Why are our bodies not strong? Because we do not pay attention to exercise. For this reason, we students must often take different kinds(sorts) of exercise in the gym.Exercise helps us(to) strengthen our bodies and avoid disease. It also teaches us cooperation, for most exercise is played by team.专心-专注-专业
