英文作文 篇1
Wonderful Weekend...
A man and a woman walk into a very posh Rodeo Drive store. "Show the lady your finest mink!" the fellow exclaims.
So the owner of the shop goes in back and comes out with an absolutely gorgeous full-length coat. As the lady tries it on, the owner discreetly whispers to the man,
"Ah, sir, that particular fur goes for $65,000."
"No problem! I'll write you a check!"
"Very good, sir." says the shop owner.
"Today is Saturday. You may come by on Monday to pick it up, after the check has cleared." So the man and the woman leave. On Monday, the fellow returns. The store owner is outraged, "How dare you show your face in here?! There wasn't a single penny in your checking account!!"
"I just had to come by," grinned the guy, "to thank you for the most wonderful weekend of my life!"
英文作文 篇2
Recently, we often show that shopping online is better than in store, but is this really the case? Actually, there is no consensus of opinions among people as to the view of shopping online is better than traditional shopping. Some people consider that online shopping will replace the mall shopping, stores will disappear in the future, while others argue that stores would unlikely to be disappeared, it has its own advantages.
近来，我们经常听说网上买东西比在实体店更好，但情况真的如此吗？事实上，人们并未就这个观点达成一致意见，一些人认为网购将会代替商场购物，商场未来会消失，而另一些人则争辩说商场不可能会消失，它有自己的优势。
Most people shopping online because it is very convenient, there is no need to go out, just click the mouse gently, they can buy the goods they want. In addition, goods online are cheaper than entity shop that buyers can save a lot of money. But even the coin has two sides. Online shopping also has advantages and disadvantages. In recent years, we see a lot of news about online cheating, and many buyers complain about poor quality of the goods, which is different with the description.
大部分人网购是由于网上购物很便捷，人们不用出门，只要轻轻点击鼠标，就能买到自己想要的商品。另外，网上的东西比实体店的便宜很多，买家可以节约很多钱。不过硬币都有正反面，网购也存在利弊。近年来，我们看到很多关于网购欺骗的新闻，以及很多买家抱怨商品的质量很差，跟网上描述的'不相同。
However, the situation above is rare in traditional shopping store, because the guest can communicate with the seller face to face. Buyers can also see goods intuitively. But the traditional shopping does not convenience as well as online shopping, for example, if people meet a traffic jam on the way to the shopping which will affect the happy mood of shopping.
但这样的情况在传统购物就很少发生。因为客人与店主可以面对面交流，买家也可以直观的看到商品。但是传统购物却没有网购方便，比如在去购物的路上遇到堵车等情况，就会影响愉快的购物心情。
To sum up, online shopping and traditional shopping has their own advantages and disadvantages. They can exist together, in recent period of time, online shopping will not replace traditional shopping.
综上所述，网购和传统的购物都有各自的优势和劣势，两者可以共同存在，在近段时间，网购不会取代传统购物。
英文作文 篇3
The Sorrows of Young Werther was written by the famous German author Goethe. The story was based on his own experiences of her adolescence. It is a dairy form so as to fully represent the changes of Werther’s inner world .
Werther happened to meet Lotte and then he fell in love with the engaged girl Lotte secretly at once. lotte was a very beautiful ,charming and kind-hearted girl,and his fiance was a handsome, honest gentleman. Werther and Lotte became good friend, but Werther dared not to speak out his admiration to her ，because he didn’t want to separate the doomed couple and he didn’t think he deserved her love for his not being good enough. But Werther loved Lotte so much that he went to the parties and activities that Lotte participated. Every time he had the impulse to tell his love to her, but then he saw the fiance, and he swallowed the words. Time after time, he became more and more upset, and the more upset he was , he thought even more of his upset and gave him more sorrows.He felt like a little hopeless and lonely mouse.
Then he went away from his hometown and Lotte to be a minister in somewhere else ,he wanted to get away from the sorrows. Then he was in a legation .But the life was not the same as he thought, he always be looked down on by the nobility and the gentry as he was not rich and he was not in the high status. Apart from that, he found himself totally different from the count who employed him. So he went back to the little village.
The things there was worse than before, one of the two boys he drew picture for was dead, Lotte was married .He thought that the whole world was filled with bad things. He became desperate of life. Several days before Christmas, he went to Lotte’s place and hugged and kissed her deeply after reading a book. Two days later, after he ended his suicide note to Lotte ,midnight came, he shot himself with his sorrows.
After reading this novel,I felt sorry about Werther .Did Werther have to die? Was Werther must be so upset? Can’t he just say out his love to Lotte?
Only when a man goes back to the beginning ,will he unhappily turned to admit he was lost. Werther was lost in the world of love, he couldn’t go out, he couldn’t stop loving Lotte. He didn’t know to find another road ,he indulged himself in his sorrows. Nobody can help him, nobody can save him.He should learn how to control himself, he should learn how to get out of the upset feelings and think more about the much better things in th e world. But he didn’t ,so we should learn the things and control ourselves. We admire his love, but we can’t admire his suicide. He killed himself ,and also killed his love. After the death, his love came to be a history, it never can came ture. Love should be much stronger, and so do our hearts. When we know our love can’t be accepted ,we should say ”congratulations and good luck” to the one we love, because to love is not to make her yours but to make her feel happy. some says love makes people stupid, maybe Werther is the one he describes, but we shouldn’t be like that. We should keep cool and calm with love, then we can make the best choice, and then we’ll never say regret to ourselves.
Werther had love , and we know love is the most amazing thing in the whole world ,but why didn’t dare to say his love out ?The cause is the feudal thought, the people at the time couldn’t put up with his love to an engaged woman. Besides this, why he was looked down by the nobility and the gentry ？The cause is also the feudal thought, so the feudal thought is the killer in some sense. We should fight against the feudal thought like Goethe .
Werther was so kind that he didn’t want to break up the relationship between Lotte and his fiance. He always thought about the others, like the boys he ever drew pictures for, like Lotte. But then he found there is barely anybody care about him, he felt this world was full of crulty. No one could really heart and soul thought of him. His love to others was useless. The was a crul and cool world. He felt alone and lonely ,he couldn’t find some one he could depend on including Lotte—the one he loved most. Hopelessness and helplessness came to his mind ,and then death, suicide.
The before , now ,the future are the forever ever topics we are talking about. Which one should we focus on mostly? Werther concentrate on the former days, he always thought about the upset and unhappy things once and again. He found more sorrows from one. And then more and more sorrows came up, these sorrows made him kill himself. So we should think more about the nowadays time and the future, especially the future, we can find more hope than hopelessness from the future. The lost days are just gone, we have no opportunity to think about them.
At last, I think Werther is a kind-hearted, loving, treasonous man, he pursues individual liberation, he hopes to get love and happiness, he loves life ,he loves adolescence. But because of his own character and the cool world he lives in, he can’t get what he deserves to get, what he has got is just loneliness, hopelessness, helplessness, sorrows and at last death. So he is also a poor and pitiful one. I often feels sorry for him.
The novel is not a long one, nor a hardly understood one. Goethe use the least ,best ,and also simplest words to make the best and most famous novel, what he gave us is more than Werther’s sorrows, but also the thoughts the book brought to us. We should be grateful to him and his book and we should also be grateful to the world we live in .Besides this ,we’d better think more about the future instead of the lost days. Always remember the experience of Werther, then we may be more sane to make the best choice in our own lives. And so we can avoid hurting ourselves or the people we love. We will make the world to be a better one.
英文作文 篇4
At Christmas time, I will always bless my classmates who have walked through fifty difficult steps with me. This year I will use this composition as a special gift to express my deep blessing to him.
The past always keeps me fresh. The student is very tall. He always looks serious, but he always smiles on his face when he helps others. We have always been a very good playing partner. Remember, that's my Christmas day in grade two. It's a bit slippery on the ground under the drizzle. When we took turns shooting, I sprained my feet after landing, but I couldn't even stand up. After he saw it, he put down the ball immediately, gently lifted me up, and slowly helped me into the teaching building. From his eyes, I could see a bit of worry. I knew he was worried about whether I could walk up to the four floor classroom.
There are fifty steps to go up to the four floor classroom, because our speed is very slow, so that we just walked to the two floor, and the bell rang. I asked him to go quickly, but he said, "after I leave, how do you get there? I'd like to stay. " Looking at his solemn expression, listening to his firm words and feeling his powerful arm, suddenly a warm current came to his heart, and the pain seemed to ease a lot. With his support, one step and one stop, we strolled fifty steps hard. These fifty steps left me with the love of my classmates. This is the special Christmas gift that I got that year!
I switched to school in XX, but I can never forget the story of that Christmas. This year's Christmas is coming. Today is drizzle. I'm here to bless him and I together to a good middle school, and hope we can play basketball happily together.

英文作文 篇6
before the 1850's， the united states had a number of small colleges， most of them dating from colonial days。 they were small， church connected institutions whose primary concern was to shape the moral character of their students。
throughout europe， institutions of higher learning had developed， bearing the ancient name of university。 in german university was concerned primarily with creating and spreading knowledge， not morals。 between mid-century and the end of the 1800's， more than nine thousand young americans， dissatisfied with their training at home， went to germany for advanced study。 some of them return to become presidents of venerable colleges-----harvard， yale， columbia---and transform them into modern universities。 the new presidents broke all ties with the churches and brought in a new kind of faculty。
professors were hired for their knowledge of a subject， not because they were of the proper faith and had a strong arm for disciplining students。 the new principle was that a university was to create knowledge as well as pass it on， and this called for a faculty composed of teacher-scholars。 drilling and learning by rote were replaced by the german method of lecturing， in which the professor's own research was presented in class。 graduate training leading to the ph。d。， an ancient german degree signifying the highest level of advanced scholarly attainment， was introduced。 with the establishment of the seminar system， graduate student learned to question， analyze， and conduct their own research。
at the same time， the new university greatly expanded in size and course offerings， breaking completely out of the old， constricted curriculum of mathematics， classics， rhetoric， and music。 the president of harvard pioneered the elective system， by which students were able to choose their own course of study。 the notion of major fields of study emerged。 the new goal was to make the university relevant to the real pursuits of the world。 paying close heed to the practical needs of society， the new universities trained men and women to work at its tasks， with engineering students being the most characteristic of the new regime。 students were also trained as economists， architects， agriculturalists， social welfare workers， and teachers。

习惯
习惯，不管是好是坏，都是逐渐形成的。当一个人反复的'做某件事时，他就会被某种看不见的力量驱使不得不以同样的方式再去做这件事，于是习惯就形成了。习惯一旦形成，就很难、有时几乎不可能改掉。因此，在养成习惯时我们都应该特别小心，这一点至关重要。
良好习惯有着许多优点。早睡早起身体好；勤奋助人成功；诚实助人赢得他人的尊重和信任。
如果我们养成了坏习惯，比如：粗野、懒惰、说谎、偷窃，我们就可能堕落。
我们应该远离坏习惯并努力养成对己对人都有好处的习惯。
英文作文 篇10
Obama: Economy May Be a Job for More than One President
Problems with the economy have been building for decades, President Barack Obama told CBS program "60 Minutes" in an interview set to air Sunday, Dec. 11.
"I've always believed that this was a long-term project," the president said. "Reversing structural problems in our economy that had been building up for two decades, that was going to take time."
Obama was asked whether he understood the difficulties of improving the economy when he took office in 20xx.
"It was going to take more than a year. It was going to take more than two years. It was going to take more than one term. Probably takes more than one president," Obama told his interviewer.
Obama said he understood the frustrations of Americans struggling in today's economy, but compared himself to a captain of a ship in a bad storm.
"No matter how well we're steering the ship, if the boat's rocking back and forth and people are getting sick and...they're being buffeted by the winds and the rain," Obama said.
"People are going to say, 'You know whatA good captain would have had us in some smooth waters and sunny skies, at this point.' And I don't control the weather," the president added.
Chinese sovereign debt bonds that tie：
Japan wants to buy Chinese government bonds
IN THE autumn of 20xx, when he was Japan‘s finance minister, Yoshihiko Noda decried it as ―strange‖ that China had bought up as much as ￥2.3 trillion (then $25.5 billion) in Japanese government bonds while its own debt was off-limits to outsiders. Now prime minister, Mr Noda is redressing the balance. At a summit in Beijing on December 25th the two countries announced an agreement to let Japan buy Chinese sovereign debt. No sum or timetable was disclosed, though Japanese news media reported the amount will reach $10 billion once China approves Japan‘s application.
Both countries say the agreement symbolises the growing importance of their economic ties, which have long been warmer than their diplomatic ones. China is Japan‘s largest trading partner; Japan counts as China‘s biggest after America. But the deal may also be a signal. Officials in Tokyo fret that China‘s purchases of Japanese bonds fuel the yen‘s appreciation. By negotiating for approval to own Chinese debt, Japan can register its discomfort with China‘s
actions and gain some influence of its own.
Japan will not simply be able to buy whatever it likes, however. China seems happy for foreign central banks to hold limited amounts of its bonds as another step in the internationalisation of the yuan. Malaysia reportedly already enjoys the privilege, among others; Japan is set to be the first G7 country to do so. But China will not do anything to compromise its control of the exchange rate. Fred Bergsten at the Peterson Institute for International Economics, a think-tank in Washington, DC, once argued that America should dispense with the niceties and exert upward pressure on the Chinese currency via the offshore market instead. He advised America to buy instruments such as the yuan-denominated ―dim sum‖ bonds now on offer in Hong Kong. Quite what effect that would have on the exchange rate is unclear, but the message would be unmistakable.
The Great Wall of Debt
That's the word out of China this morning, according to ratings agency Moody's.
Local government debt could be 3.5 trillion renminbi ($540 billion) larger than first thought, a troubling number that could expose Chinese banks to deeper losses that could eventually threaten their credit ratings, Moody's says.
It points to Bank of China and China Citic Bank as two banks that pursued particularly aggressive lending strategies in 20xx, when Chinese banks went on a lending tear.
―Banks‘ exposure to local government borrowers is greater than we anticipated,‖ Yvonne Zhang, a Moody‘s analyst, said in a statement published by Reuters.
The biggest worry
Slower economic growth in the world‘s second-largest economy could trigger a round of loan defaults, hobbling China's banking system and unnerving global markets and, of course, adding more problems to the fragile global economy. Moody's is urging Beijing to come up with a "clear master plan" to fix the problem.
This isn't the first warning about China's banking system.
As reported by GlobalPost's David Case back in January, Fitch Ratings late last year issued a troubling report on the sector.
Here's how Case put it:
Experts are warning that China‘s red-hot economy is catching a contagion of its own. The country is increasingly awash in runaway loans, a development that could have serious implications for China and the global economy.
The situation has become so precarious that Fitch Ratings, a global credit
analysis firm, issued a report last month revealing a litany of messy banking practices associated with aggressive Chinese loan making. The report stated that these practices — involving transferring loans off of banks‘ books — constitute ―the most disconcerting trend Fitch has observed in China‘s banking sector in recent years.‖
The problem is complicated by China's socialist-market approach to tweaking its economy.
Instead of using interest rates as the brake and gas pedal of economic growth, Beijing regulates its economy by upping or decreasing the amount of loans that banks can issue.
That's fine when it works. But it's also a risky strategy, particularly when transparency is difficult to come by, as is often the case in China.
So, clearly, the situation bears close watching as both Moody's and Fitch indicate.
