英语作文范文

1、以―Preserving Our Environment‖为题，写一篇征文。要求按如下三条作为文章的提纲：

1、人类正在污染环境。

2、污染对人类的危害。

3、如何保护环境。

Preserving Our Environment

Man is slowly polluting his environment. He dirties the air with waste gases；he poisons the water with chemical wastes；he damages the soil with fertilizers.

Pollution does great harm to man. As we know，water，air and soil are necessary to man's survival. Polluted air，water and soil make people sick and even cause deaths. Environmental pollution is becoming one of the most serious problems that mankind faces.

Now it's high time drastic action was taken. First，we should make the public aware of the dangers caused by pollution. Second，we should take pollution control measures to reduce pollution. Third，we should keep our pollution under control. After all，the earth is our home. We must take care of it for ourselves and our descendants.

Never miss deadlines. Never.

2、Air Pollution

Air pollution is one of the major problems of the modern world. A great deal of energy is needed to run the factories of modern industrial nations. Automobile, trains, planes and busses need energy, too. Nearly all of this energy is produced by burning fuels. The burning produces wastes, some of which remain in the air, causing air pollution.

Scientists are finding ways to stop air pollution especially in big industrial areas and densely-populated cities. They are studying new ways of generating electricity that may be less damaging to the environment. In the meantime, many power plants are being modernized to give off less polluted material. Also, engineers try to design and locate new power plants to do minimum damage to the environment.

However, it may be that we still have a long way to go before we have a "clean" world. Nearly all of the countries are trying hard to prevent and control air pollution. There indeed seems to be no end to tasks that environmentalists will be required to do. People will continually find new ways to control pollution.

3、On Opportunity

It seems that the fame of outstanding figures is due to some stroke of luck. Throughout history，some famous people always have admired opportunities that lead to success. In daily life，some ―lucky dogs‖（幸运儿）never lack chances in their turning points. In fact，opportunities may come to everyone now and then.

However，it is a pity that most people fail to seize opportunitiesg Why ⅡOpportunities ―prefer‖ those who are prepared to grab. Without a ready mind，admired opportunities may slip

through one's fingers.

In my view，without diligence，willpower and continual efforts，opportunities are groundless talk. To be qualified for success，people should be equipped with necessary skills，rich experience and abundant knowledge besides numerous unusual qualities （素质）。In a word，opportunities are only catalyst （催化剂）of success，but not precondition （先决条件）of success.

7、Choosing a Good Major or a Good University?

(选择好专业还是好大学)

Every student will be faced with the same question when he passes the College Entrance Examination: should he choose a good major or a good university? Different people will offer different answers.

Some students give priority to a good major. What they cherish is a specialty they like most. To their mind, whether or not the university is famous doesn't matter--so long as he works hard, he can learn well in any university, and a bright future is awaiting him.

Other students pay more attention to the fame and quality of the universities. They attach great importance to the university because the environment is vital to the making of an excellent person and is the symbol of good job prospects. How can you have a wide vision and a broad horizon if you receive your education at a small college?

Frankly, the best choice is a good major at a good university. We can only get such a chance after making great efforts. If we cannot obtain both, the first thing to consider is a good major itself.

8、How to Succeed in the Interview

Nowadays, the interview has become indispensable in seeking a job. Its success will determine whether or not you will get the job you applied. Then how to succeed in a job interview?

There are many factors involved. According to psychologists,it depends more on the first impression you leave which is half a battle: how you look, how you sound and what you say are of great importance. In the first place, how you look makes up 55% of a first impression. This includes facial expressions, body language, and eye contact, as well as clothing and general appearance.

Among those, clothing is the most important to show your respect to the interviewer and to leave the interviewer a good impression in the end. In the second place, how you sound makes up 38% of the first impression. This includes how fast or slowly, loudly or softly you speak. So make sure that you sound friendly, interested, confident and happy in answering any inquires in the interview. Finally, what you say counts for only 7% of the message. Therefore, attach more importance to your appearance and expressions rather than your words.

To conclude, no one can escape from the interview. Remember the above points, and you will succeed in the interview.

9、How to Help Old People Live Better

要点：

1.年轻人应多与老年人交谈、沟通

2.老年人应理解年轻人的压力

3.社会应组织相应的活动注意

How to Help Old People Live Better

In the last ten years our society is more advanced. Old people also live more happily. But we just noticed old people‘s material life. In fact old people‘s mental life is more important to them. Because old people are very lonely. I have three methods for this question.

Firstly, young people should communicate to old people. They should exchange their ideas. Then they can understand each other more easily. The old people may be happier.

Secondly, old people also should understand young people‘s pressure. They should know why the young people can‘t talk with them.

Finally, society also should hold some activities for old people. To protect their life more colorful and greater!

10、How Should People Keep Health

Do you want a strong body?Let me tell you how to do.

You should eat lots of fruit and vegetables,and drink lots of boiled water.You should do exercise .You should sleep at least eight in the evening,too.but you shouldn't drink coffee or

tea before sleep,you shouldn't eat too many candies.You shouln't work or study too hart.

The way can keep your health.

Many students do not have breakfast before they go to school.It's a quite bad habit and it's bad for your health.Maybe you don't have time to have breakfast but you couldn't learn well in your classes if you don't eat any thing .Keeping in a good health which can help you study well is very important.

11、What Are Your Opinions About Money?

Believe it or not, almost everybody loves money. But money doesn‘t mean everything.

You can not fulfill your dream with money only. Money is only the means of exchange. We c

an hardly say money brings happiness. But without money we are certainly unhappy and can

do nothing.

In this world people sell something for money. If you are a teacher, you can earn your lif

e by selling knowledge. A worker sells his labor and a monk sells spiritual comfort for people

‘s lives. Even a beggar can sell something for money — he sells his dignity.

Usually we get the things we need by selling something. And the money we get differs a ccording to the service we give. If the customers receive good service from us, they will pay

us well. With this money we can buy the things we need. To be rich means you can buy almo

st everything you want. We are well-off when we are able to afford the things we need.

Quite a few think that they make more money to get more happiness. Some even say, ―If

I make one million dollars, I will be very happy and I can do whatever I like.‖ When they rea

ch the goal, they find themselves unhappy. A great ancient Chinese thinker said, ―Never be fe

ttered by too much money nor be chopped by poverty. ‖ So I personally think a well-off life i s an ideal one. A comfortable life is the most important.

12、抱怨信

14、Craze for Civil Service Examination

(公务员考试热)

Every year hundreds of thousands of people in China take civil service exams conducted at various levels in the hope of becoming government employees. Among them, college graduates are a fast-growing force that can‘t be ignored. The craze for being a civil servant is not limited to liberal arts majors, as it‘s also gaining popularity among science an d engineering students.

In the final analysis, this growing trend among the youngsters is mainly attributable to two factors–ambitions and comforts. On the one hand, many ambitious college graduates view these exams as a springboard to a higher social status, greater power and prestige, on which many of their other wishes rest. On the other, as being a civil servant generally means

a stable income, enviable healthcare and pension programmes, as well as other comforts of

life, it‘s quite an appealing ca reer option to many people, especially in this age of sluggish world economy.

Personally, the desire to be a government official is beyond reproach, as the nation and the people do need an injection of new blood into the civil service sectors. The fresh-faced college graduates, armed with lofty ideals, new vision, and strong drive, are undoubtedly among the best candidates.

15、Use of Free Time

With the working hours becoming shorter and shorter and holidays becoming longer and longer, how to spend the leisure time has become a hot topic.

The use of free time often discloses much about one?s tastes, values, interests and personality. Some may take to the humanities: literature, magic, art, and they might be interested in movies and television. Others participate in sports, politics, voluntary work or hobbies at home. Still others like parties, traveling, .or just loafing.

Obviously, the use of free time is a good means of relaxation, but its benefits go beyond this. All things people do in leisure hours enable them to gratify their wishes. This can contribute to intellectual growth and promote social activities as well.

So the good use of free time will make life rich, colorful and rewarding.

17、My View on Traveling

I love traveling. Traveling not only broadens my horizons but also opens my eyes to the world. What's more, it refreshes me. You can go to Disneyland and experience what it's like to be ―a child again!‖ You can visit one of the ―seven wonders of the world,‖ such as the Grand Canyon and feel the magnificence of nature!

You can taste the ―magicial‖ ice water on a glacier, which can help you become more beautiful and make you live longer. Just forget all trifles and burdens that you have in your mind. Experience is a type of living knowledge. You'll be sure to experience many new things when traveling. You don't even need a tour guide if you long for more freedom. Just don't forget to bring your backpack!

18、Using Mobile Phones

There are advantages and disadvantages for using mobile phone.

Firstly, it is good. Using mobile phone can enhance your communication with others. It is a good way to keep in touch with your friends , parents, classments,etc, and when in emergency, you can call your friends or 110 for help.

On the other hand, it is not good. Phones have radiation. Too much radiation is bad for people's healthy. Besides, people usually download games to the phone, it may cause them addict to the games.

All in all, we should use phone properly , not too much.

The view of using mobile phone in our school

There are two different views on the issue of mobile phones in schools. Some believe that students should be able to use mobile phones in school because there are many advantages to doing so. For one thing, if an emergency were to occur at the school, the students would immediately be able to use their mobile phones to reach their parents and relatives. Also, if a student's parents wanted to reach the student, they can send a text message to the student as opposed to having to call the office and then getting transferred. However, there are also some who believe otherwise. If someone called in during a lesson, the ringing of the mobile phone would clearly disrupt the class, and students might be more tempted to send text message during class. Furthermore, students might use the mobile phones to cheat on exams, and this would cause many controversies. Overall, the advantages are balanced with the disadvantages, and it is ultimately the school's decision whether or not to allow mobile phones.

19、Study Abroad

In recent years, study abroad has flourished. Thousands of scholars and students have gone to foreign countries to study. Many people are sparing no efforts in applying for going abroad.

Attending schools abroad has many advantages. Firstly, students who have studied abroad can act as mediators between peoples of different cultures so as to promote international understanding. Secondly, we can learn much more advanced knowledge of science and technology from the foreign countries. Thirdly, we can enjoy the contact with new and different cultures so as to increase the awareness of our own culture. Fourthly, we can learn a foreign language more quickly.

However, study abroad may have disadvantages such as language barrier in the first few months or financial difficulties before getting a scholarship. Besides, being far away from home country, students may feel lonely. In spite of these, the advantages greatly outweigh the disadvantages. It is advisable to attend schools abroad.

20、My View on Laid-off Workers

Re-employment of Laid-off Workers

As we all know, there are more and more laid-off workers in China now mainly because of the rapid changes in the economic reform. Among them are the old and the young, men and women, and even some well-educated graduates. What's more, with more and more workers being laid-off, lots of social problems have appeared.

As a result, the issue of re-employment of the laid-off workers has become one of the hot topics and drawn much attention from governments at all levels. A number of solutions are being offered. First of all, re-training programs should be organized to help the laid-off workers to learn new skills to help them keep up w（转载自第一范文网https://www.360docs.net/doc/6215238494.html,，请保留此标记。）ith the changing society. Besides, our government should take some necessary measures to createmore new opportunities of employment for these peopie. Finally, colleges and universities should reform their courses to adapt to the development of economy so as to provide qualified studens to meet the needs of society.

In my opinion, solving the problem of re-employment of laid-off workers needs the effort of the whole society, including our government, the laid-off workers themselves and all those who are ready to offer their help, Moreover, the lay-off workers, especially the well-educated graduates, should lower their standards before looking for satisfying jobs.
