我的偶像蜘蛛英语作文
我的偶像蜘蛛英语作文谁能想到，我竟对一只小小的蜘蛛产生了崇拜。
Who would have thought that I had worshipped a little spider.那是一个星期日的早晨，我坐到窗台前做作业，偶然抬头，竟看见窗台的角落不知什么时候进驻了一位不速之客——蜘蛛。
我一向讨厌蜘蛛，因为它又黑又丑，每当看着它的小脑袋，八条腿儿，黑乎乎的身体，就情不自禁地打起冷战。
今天它居然自己找上门来，此时不打，更待何时?事不宜迟，说干就干。
我拿起扫把，对准蜘蛛网和蜘蛛扫去，自然不费吹灰之力，一下子就把蜘蛛的“家”拆掉了。
眼看着蜘蛛慌乱逃窜，我不禁洋洋自得，继续写我的作业。
It was a Sunday morning. I sat in front of the windowsill to do my homework. I accidentally looked up and saw an uninvited guest spider in the corner of the windowsill at some time. I always hate spiders because they are black and ugly. Whenever I look at their small head, eight legs and dark body, I can't help but fight a cold war. Today, it actually came to the door by itself. If it doesn't fight at this time, when will it wait? It's not too late to do what you say. I picked up the broom and aimed it at the spider web and the spider.Naturally, it took no effort to tear down the spider's "home" at once. Seeing the spider fleeing in a panic, I couldn't help feeling complacent and continued to write my homework.“XX!吃饭啦!”"XX! Eat!"不知不觉到了吃午饭的时间，我伸个懒腰。
苍蝇和蜘蛛发生的事情英语作文关于琥珀的课文
苍蝇和蜘蛛发生的事情英语作文关于琥珀的课文全文共3篇示例，供读者参考篇1The Fateful Encounter Between Fly and Spider: An Amber EncapsulationAs I sat in Mrs. Robinson's science class, my mind began to wander as she droned on about the fascinating properties of amber. While I tried to be an attentive student, the warm spring air wafting through the open windows made it challenging to focus on the prehistoric tree resin. Just as I was about to completely zone out, something caught my eye – a battle for survival was unfolding right before me.A rather daring housefly had boldly flown through the window, seemingly oblivious to the potential dangers that lurked within the classroom. With a loud buzz, it landed on the windowsill, cleaning its multifaceted eyes and preening its wings. Little did this foolish fly know that it had entered the domain of a formidable hunter – a spider had constructed an intricate web in the corner of the window frame.The spider, a stealthy eight-legged predator, had patiently waited for an unsuspecting insect to blunder into its trap. Upon detecting the vibrations caused by the fly's movements, it swiftly emerged from its hiding place, poised to strike. The hapless fly, still grooming itself, remained unaware of the mortal peril that was rapidly closing in.In a flash, the spider pounced, shooting out a strand of silk that instantly entangled the fly's legs. Alerted to the potential threat, the fly began to thrash about wildly, desperately attempting to free itself from the clingy fibers. However, the spider's aim was true, and with each frantic movement, the fly only became more hopelessly ensnared.As the battle raged on the windowsill, the rest of the class remained blissfully unaware, their attention firmly fixed on the lecture. Only I bore witness to this primal struggle between predator and prey unfolding mere feet away. My heart raced as I watched the spider systematically immobilize the fly, wrapping it in a cocoon of silk until only its torso remained exposed.With the fly effectively mummified, the spider began the final phase of its attack. Positioning itself above the helpless insect, it began to inject a lethal cocktail of digestive enzymes and neurotoxins into the fly's body. The fly's feeble attempts atresistance gradually ceased as the venom took hold, paralyzing and liquefying its internal organs.It was at this moment that Mrs. Robinson's voice cut through my morbid fascination. "Now, who can tell me about the remarkable properties of amber?" she queried, glancing around the classroom. Startled back to reality, I raised my hand, eager to share the incredible scene I had just witnessed."Well, Amber," she said, calling upon me, "perhaps you can enlighten us."Clearing my throat, I began, "Amber is fossilized tree resin that has the ability to preserve organisms in pristine condition for millions of years. It's like nature's time capsule." I paused, glancing back at the spider, which had already begun to consume the fly's liquefied insides. "In fact, there's a perfect example unfolding right before our eyes."Confused murmurs rippled through the classroom as my classmates followed my gaze towards the windowsill. Mrs. Robinson's eyes widened in surprise, but to her credit, she maintained her composure."Indeed, Amber, you've made an excellent observation," she remarked. "This unfortunate fly has become entrapped in thespider's web, not unlike the countless organisms that have become forever preserved in amber throughout the ages."As the spider methodically drained the fly of its vital fluids, Mrs. Robinson seamlessly wove the grisly spectacle into her lesson. She explained how the remarkable properties of amber allowed it to capture and preserve even the most delicate creatures in exquisite detail, freezing them in time likethree-dimensional photographs."The fly you see before you may one day find itself eternally encased in amber, its final moments forever immortalized," she said solemnly. "Much like the insects, plants, and even feathers that we've seen trapped in ancient amber samples, this hapless creature's struggle has been forever captured for posterity."As the class watched in rapt attention, the spider efficiently consumed the last remnants of the fly, leaving only a desiccated husk behind. It then retreated back into the depths of its web, its hunger sated for the time being."And so, the cycle of life continues," Mrs. Robinson concluded. "Predator and prey, locked in an eternal dance, with amber bearing silent witness to the timeless rhythms of nature."From that day forward, I viewed amber with a newfound appreciation and respect. Each time I gazed upon thosesemi-transparent gemstones, I was reminded of the fateful encounter between fly and spider that had unfolded before my very eyes. In those frozen droplets of resin, I saw not just the preservation of ancient life, but a poignant reminder of the fragility and resilience of existence itself.篇2The Fateful Encounter in the Amber MinesSchool textbooks often make ancient history seem dry and boring, just a bunch of names, dates, and random facts to memorize. But when Mrs. Jenkins started talking about the fascinating story behind the amber samples she passed around the classroom, the past suddenly came alive in my imagination. As my fingers traced the smooth, honey-colored gemstone, I could picture the resinous sap oozing down the bark of a massive pine tree millions of years ago."This piece of amber is incredibly old," Mrs. Jenkins explained, "Perhaps 100 million years, from the Late Cretaceous period. It acted like nature's fly paper, preserving insects andeven small reptiles or mammals with astounding detail when they became trapped."She pointed to a tiny speck suspended within the translucent depths. "You can still make out the shape of this fly's wings, legs, even its compound eyes. It's an invisible museum of the prehistoric world, frozen in time."Peering closer, I could indeed make out the delicate outline of the fly's form, almost like a photograph in 3D. My mind began to wander, imagining the drama that must have unfolded, leading to the insect's fateful entombment...The ancient pine forest seemed peaceful enough as a lumbering Edmontosaurus munched lazily on the ferns nearby. Rays of sunlight filtered through the feathery green canopy above as a small fly explored the rough grooves in the bark of a towering tree. The tiny insect's eyes detected even the faintest movements, constantly alert for any signs of danger or an easy meal.Suddenly, something stirred in a hidden crevice in the bark just ahead. The fly's receptors went haywire as a larger shape emerged - a spindly leg, bristling with sharp hairs, followed by another and another. Within seconds, a grotesque, bulbous body appeared, flanked by not six but eight outrageously long legs.Two shiny black pearls swiveled independently at the front of its revolting form, fixing directly on the hapless fly.The arachnid lunged forward, its fanged mouthparts bared menacingly. The fly took to the air in a burst of winged panic, desperately trying to evade the voracious hunter. It bobbed and weaved through the air, each breath and pulse of its wings rippling in slow motion as the life-or-death chase unfolded.Time after time, the spider's lance-like legs stabbed through empty space as its prey adroitly veered away at the last instant. The spider scrambled, adjusting its trajectory in an agile dance of death as errant strands of silk whipped from its spinning glands. For several agonizing minutes, the two combatants persisted in their lethal game of cat-and-fly.Just when it seemed the fly might slip away to safety, its luck ran out. Perhaps it misjudged the angle, or began tiring from the frantic physical exertion. But whatever the reason, its next evasive maneuver wasn't enough. Like lightning, the spider's weighted legs came together in a funneling trap, snagging the fly and pinning its wings to its struggling body.While the unfortunate insect was immobilized, the spider carefully wrapped strand after strand of sticky webbing around it, initially thin as a gossamer shroud and then layer upon layer intoa thickening cocoon. The fly's twitching movements gradually fell still as the muffling silk cut off its air supply.The spider dragged the tightly bundled prize back to its lair and began the grizzly process of injecting digestive enzymes through the protective webbing. Working methodically, it slowly liquefied the fly's body into a nutrient-rich soup that it could gradually ingest at its leisure.Meanwhile, deep underground, the warm, viscous tree sap was percolating under pressure, seeking any crack or crevice to ooze out through the surface. As the spider enjoyed its fresh meal, it remained oblivious to the spreading rivulets of sticky amber steadily creeping upwards and enveloping its entire domain in a golden tomb.Eons passed as continents drifted, climates shifted, and the great pine forests receded under the relentless march of evolution. By the time early hominids roamed the savannas, the once mighty trees were already petrified fossils entombing innumerable frozen vignettes of lives cut short. The tiny speck of a spider and its shriveled prey, cocooned in their protective amber sarcophagus, remained in pristine stasis, waiting to be uncovered and studied by curious eyes.Now here we were in Mrs. Jenkin's 8th grade science class, marveling at the wondrous fidelity of that specific snapshot in time. As she returned my sample of the solidified resin, I gazed at it in a new light, no longer an inert rock but a tantalizing portal into lost eons before the dawn of human civilization. I couldn't wait to learn what other secrets lay waiting to be deciphered inside amber's ancient embrace.篇3The Petrified PrizefightAs I slumped into my chair for Mr. Wilson's science class, I could already feel my eyelids getting heavy. I had stayed up way too late the night before watching reruns of old boxing matches. My brain was still buzzing with visions of great fighters like Muhammad Ali dodging blows and delivering powerful uppercuts. Little did I know, the lesson that day would feature a prizefight for the ages - one that had been frozen in time for millions of years."Today we'll be learning about amber," Mr. Wilson announced in his usual enthusiastic tone. "Can anyone tell me what amber is?"A few hands went up tentatively. "Yes, Jessica?" Mr. Wilson called on Jessica Robertson, who was already tiredly resting her head on her desk."Isn't it like...solidified tree sap or something?" she mumbled."Correct!" Mr. Wilson beamed. "Amber is fossilized tree resin that oozed out of ancient trees millions of years ago and then hardened into that semi-precious gemstone material."He held up a large, irregularly-shaped lump of amber about the size of a softball. Even from the back row, I could see things trapped inside - weird fossils, plant matter, and...insects?"The really fascinating thing about amber is the amazingpreservation of whatever got stuck in the resin all those eons ago," Mr. Wilson went on. "These fossils give us an incredible peek into what life was like back in prehistoric times. For example, can anyone see the insect trapped in this piece I'm holding up?"My eyes had already started glazing over, but I forced myself to take a closer look as Mr. Wilson passed the amber around. Sure enough, there was something unmistakably trapped in the clear yellow gemstone. It looked almost like a darkish blotch orblemish at first, but as the amber got closer I could make out distinct shapes and forms."That, my friends, appears to be some sort of ancient arachnid," Mr. Wilson said once the amber had made its way to the front again. "Most likely an early ancestor of modern spiders."My gaze sharpened as I studied the strange, petrified creature. It was relatively large - maybe a few inches across - with a bulbous body and thick, hairy legs contorted in an almost wrestling stance. Speaking of wrestling, there seemed to be something else tangled up with the spider. Another insect, it looked like a giant fly, was clearly locked in mortal combat with the eight-legged beast."Steve, can you describe what you see in the amber?" Mr. Wilson asked, having noticed my rapt attention. I quickly gathered my thoughts as all eyes turned towards me."Well...yeah, there's definitely a spider in there," I began. "A pretty big one too. And also some kind of freakishly huge fly or something. But the crazy thing is, it looks like the fly and spider Were kind of...fighting? When they got trapped, I mean.""Excellent observation," Mr. Wilson said with an approving nod. "From the body positions and the way their limbs are intertwined, it does seem apparent that these two very different species were engaged in some sort of hostile encounter. Some paleontologists have speculated it could representpredator-prey behavior, with the spider trying to capture the fly. Or perhaps it was an exceptional example of territorial aggression between competing insect species. Regardless of the circumstances, we've been gifted with anincredible snapshot of life-or-death drama from the prehistoric past."As I studied the frozen clash more closely, my mind's eye couldn't help reconstructing the epic battle that must have played out inside that tiny, sticky tomb of resin. I could practically see the monstrous, hairy arachnid lurking in the shadows, waiting patiently to ambush any passers-by foolish enough to stray into its web. Then the hapless fly - in reality a gigantic, grotesque mutation; basically a living nightmare - blundered into the trap.The spider surged forwards with unnatural quickness, its hooked feet allowing it to scamper across the strands of silk with eerie ease. But the fly was no easy meal. Those massive, jagged wings of leathery chitin slashed out with bayonet-like precision,forcing the spider to recoil or risk being sliced in two by the vicious cutting edges. Pivoting on its hind legs with a boxer's dexterity, the spider countered with a rapid-fire fusillade from its own armory - twin jets of paralyzing venom spraying from wickedly curved fangs.Perhaps sensing its impending doom, the fly entered a berserker frenzy. With a guttural, clicks-and-buzzes warcry, it launched itself at the spider in a brain-clouds of sticky saliva. Whether by accident or desperation tactic, one of those slashing wings must have struck the fatal blow - severing the spider's primary heart vessel and sending gobbets of viscous haemolymph spraying in all directions.Crippled but not yet beaten, the spider resorted to its trump card - the silken thread, streaming continuously from its spiked belly. With one deft flick of its nimble pedipalps, it released a dense cloud of silken filaments that billowed around the fly's wildly thrashing form. In mere seconds, the fly was encased in a downy shroud, smothering and strangling it until only a frenzied quivering of its wings betrayed any signs of life. With its foe neutralized at last, the spider could indulge in its hard-won victory feast.But that was when the second, crueller trap was sprung - the slow amber avalanche defying all attempts to flee. The fly, already hopelessly immobilized, was the first to be engulfed in the sticky golden sarcophagus. Naturally, the spider scrambled and fought with every fibre of its being, but there was no escaping its fate. One leg, then two, oozed under the surface until at last its entire body was entombed for eternity, locked in a death pose with its prey for an audience of the ages to come."Steve? Steve! Hello, are you still with us?"Mr. Wilson's voice snapped me out of my reverie. I looked around to see the whole class gaping at me like I had just recited a passage from an alien linguistics textbook."Sorry...I got a little carried away there," I muttered sheepishly. "That fly and spider thing was just...intense, you know?"To my surprise, Mr. Wilson simply chuckled and shook his head in amusement."Well, you certainly have quite the vivid imagination, Steve! Although I can't say I've ever heard the Paleozoic era's struggle for survival described in such...lurid, gladiatorial terms before. Still, that's not such a bad way to engage with the prehistoricworld we've been discussing. The ability to mentally reconstruct and empathize with the harsh realities of ancient life is a real gift - one that could serve you well if you ever decided to pursue paleontology further. For now though, let's move on to learning about some other fascinating amber specimens..."As the lesson continued, my mind could barely focus. I was still stuck in that phantasmagoric vision of primordial armageddon - the aeons-old prizefight frozen eternally in sparkling amber. Part of me was almost glad to escape from that alien world of gargantuan insects and life-or-death savagery. And yet, there was something undeniably awe-inspiring about having witnessed - even through the lens of imagination - such a primal battle between two of nature's most enduring gladiators.To this day, whenever I look at amber jewelry or ornaments, I can't help envisioning the miniature colosseums lurking inside, where the desperation duels from Earth's deep prehistory are preserved forever in crystalline stasis. And sometimes, just sometimes, I can even convince myself I hear the ghostly chittering and buzzing of ancient champions still locked in immortal struggle behind those impermeable golden masks.。

He has since written many works of prose and poetry. “His literary works, spanning a variety of genres(体裁), comprises about 40 plays and a wealth of novels, poetry collections, essays, children’s books and translations,” said Anders Olsson, chairman of the Nobel Committee for Literature.Jon Fosse draws inspiration from his rural living environment and personal struggles, which have deeply influenced his distinctive writing style. Growing up in a small coastal village, Fosse was immersed in the beauty of nature and the vastness of the sea, which filled him with a sense of solitude and introspection(内省) that is reflected in his works. Fosse’s writing discussed themes of desolateness(孤独，苍凉), longing, and the search for meaning in life. Additionally, his battles with depression have enabled him to explore the depths of human emotions and existential des-pair.“He touches you so deeply when you read his works,” said Anders Olsson. “What is special about him is the closeness in his writing. It touches your deepest feelings-anxieties, insecurities, questions of life and death-which are things that every human being actually faces from the very beginning. In that sense I think he reaches very far and there is a sort of a universal impact of every-thing that he writes-it has appeal to this basic humanity.”Fosse is the first-ever laureate writing in Nynorsk, one of the two official languages of Norwegian, but only used by just 10% of the population. As The Guardian writes, “Many Nynorsk speakers see Fosse ‘as a kind of national hero’ for his championing of the language.” Fosse’s recognition on a global stage promotes the visibility and importance of Nynorsk as a writtenstandard. It will attract more attention to Nynorsk literature, inspire and encourage Nynorsk speakers to continue preserving and promoting their linguistic(语言的) heritage.4．What do we know about Jon Fosse from paragraph 2?A．His most popular work is the play Red, Black.B．He accomplished various genres of literature works.C．Many famous plays are the inspiration for his writing.D．His language skills earned him the Nobel Prize in Literature.5．What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?A．Jon Fosse’s tough experiences.B．Jon Fosse’s motivation for writing.C．The major themes of Jon Fosse’s works.D．The effect of Jon Fosse’s life on his writing style.6．What is special about Jon Fosse’s works according to Anders Olsson?A．They explore the meaning of life.B．They touch human’s deepest emotions.C．They show the bond between humans and nature.D．They appeal to readers to focus on personal feelings.7．What contribution of Jon Fosse is mentioned in the last paragraph?A．He explains the importance of linguistic diversity.B．He has improved the international status of Norway.C．He promotes the development and preservation of Nynorsk.D．He shapes the basic writing standard of Norwegian literature.It’s one of the most common questions adults ask children: what do you want to be when you grow up? Although childhood is supposed to be fun, kids also discuss important topics regarding their futures. Now, a new study finds that children who set big goals regarding their future status and education often set themselves up for success as they age.The findings, published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, are the first to reveal a connection between life goal development and future success in school or the workplace. Rodica Damian, an associate professor of psychology at the University of Houston, and otherresearchers discovered that as children grow up, their goals naturally begin to change. However, as some childhood goals fall away, other goals related to a family stay strong. These include being close to relatives, building more friendships or finding a romantic partner, and even becoming more involved in your community or helping others.During the study, researchers compared how their goals evolved as children moved from adolescence to adulthood and how a person’s goals impacted their success in school and as an employee later on. Overall, a child’s goals focusing on their education and future status were the most consistent predictors (预测因素) of income in adulthood. Simply put, when a child dreams big about doing well in school or achieving great success as an adult, these goals accurately paint a picture of how successful these children will be. So, the message is simple: dream big and dream of success, kids! Those goals can drive you to success when you grow up!“Our work proves a strong connection between a child’s life goals, educational achievement, and future occupational outcomes. This information is valuable for parents and educators who can use it to encourage children to set ambitious goals. Additionally, it helps develop strategies to support individuals in achieving their goals and reaching their full potential,” Damian concludes. 8．What does the study mainly focus on?A．Why children change their dreams over time.B．Whether childhood goals relate to future success.C．Whether early education determines future career.D．How childhood experiences impact a person’s choice.9．Which of the following goals remains strong as children grow up?A．Connecting with others.B．Achieving academic success.C．Hunting for a high-salary jobD．Improving personal social status.10．What message does the author convey in paragraph 3?A．Dreaming big is potentially associated with success.B．Childhood achievement s greatly affect future careers.C．Educational goals may be more achievable than others.D．Adjusting goals can create new opportunities for success.11．What is the purpose of the last paragraph?A．To explain the purpose of the study.B．To offer suggestions for future studies.C．To stress the significance of the study.D．To point out the limitations of the study.Spiders are master builders, expertly turning silk into complex 3D webs that serve as their home and hunting ground. To gain a deeper understanding of their world, scientists have translated the structure of a spider’s web into music.“The spider lives in an environment of vibrating (振动的) strings,” says Markus Buehler, the project’s principal investigator. “They don’t see very well, so they perceive their surroundings by detecting vibrations, which have different frequencies.” Such vibrations occur, for example, when the spider stretches a strand of silk during construction or when the wind or a trapped fly moves the web.The researchers scanned a natural spider web to capture 2D cross-sections and reconstructed its 3D network using a mathematical model. They assigned different frequencies of sound to strands of the web, creating musical “notes” that they combined in patterns based on the web’s 3D structure to generate music. Then they made a harp-like (像竖琴的) virtual instrument and played the spider web music in several live performances around the world, creating an inspiring harmony of art and science.To gain insights into how spiders build webs, the researchers also scanned a web during construction, transforming each stage into music with different sounds. “The spider’s way of ‘printing’ the web is remarkable because no support material is used, as is often needed in current 3D printing methods,” Buehler says. This knowledge could help develop new 3D printers that work like spiders, enabling them to construct complex structures without using additional materials for support.The team is also interested in learning how to communicate with spiders in their own language. They recorded web vibrations produced when spiders performed different activities, such as building a web, communicating with other spiders or sending signals to admirers. “Now we’re trying to generate signals to basically speak the language of the spider,” Buehler says. “If we expose them to certain patterns of vibrations, can we affect what they do or can we begin to communicate with them?
