The world is very different now.
潘多拉的盒子
Why not look into the box,just once?She put her hand on the lid.
As Pandora raised the lid,the cottage became dark and there was the sound of thunder overhead.When she looked inside the box,a cloud of winged creatures flew out into the room.Epimetheus cried out in pain.
通过揭开神秘盒子的盖子，潘多拉已经把世界上所有的麻烦都释放出来，她释放了忧虑，疾病，悲伤，这些都曾经安全地被封存在盒子里,以便使快乐的孩子们从来不知道这些事情。
麻烦不止这些，这些带翅膀的麻烦飞出屋子，开始叮其他所有的孩子们，从那以后，没有人可以保持长久的微笑，由永保青春到一天天变老，除此之外还有花开始凋零死亡，而以前从来都是常开不谢。

但是过了一天又一天，潘多拉不想别的，只有那神秘的盒子。最后，厄庇墨透斯告诉她，一个面带微笑，头上戴着插着羽毛的帽子的人拿来了这个盒子。
When she was alone in the cottage she stood looking at the mysterious box for a long time.It was made of a beautiful dark wood,which was so polished8 that Pandora could see her face in it.There was carving9 on the sides and corners,in a wonderful design of flowers and fruit.Here and there a face looked out from among the leaves.In the center of the polished lid10 there was the most lovely face of all,and it seemed to smile at Pandora.
初一现代与古代的英文作文60词
初一现代与古代的英文作文60词全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1The Awesome World of Today vs The Olden DaysHey there! Jasmine here, an 11-year-old student who loooves learning about history and comparing the past to the present. Get ready to have your mind blown by how wildly different and exciting life is nowadays versus like, a gazillion years ago!Let's start with something we just can't live without - technology! Can you imagine a world with no phones, computers, or even light bulbs? That's what it was like waaaay back in ancient times. No Instagram, TikTok, or streaming movies and shows. How on earth did they survive?! Instead of snapping selfies, they had to sit for hours to get loro pintura (that's Spanish for "their painting") made. Boringgg!Speaking of tech, travelling must've been a total nightmare in those days. Nobody had planes, trains or even cars! You either walked everywhere or rode a smelly horse or camel if you were lucky. Flying from America to Europe in just a few hours? Yeahright, try several looong months sailing across the ocean in a tiny wooden ship. No thanks, I'll take an aeroplane any day!School back then was also super different and not in a fun way. You didn't get fun field trips, creative art projects or even recess time to run around! Just a grumpy old teacher droning on while you sat still on a hard bench all day. And get this - if you misbehaved they could actually hit you with a stick! Thank goodness for positive reinforcement nowadays.Another crazy thing was that humans didn't have basic things we take for granted like proper bathrooms, heating or air conditioning. Can you imagine having to go potty in an outhouse or shiver all winter with no heat? No thank you! They also didn't have clean running water, vitamins or decent medical care. A simple cold or infection could straight up kill you back then!While we're on the topic of health, let's discuss food and diet. Most ancient people were farmers or herders who only ate extremely basic things like bread, gruel, or whatever vegetable and meat they could grow or raise themselves. No pizza delivery, sushi takeout or even cereal and milk for breakfast like we enjoy today! And forget about dessert - sugary treats were considered an outrageous luxury.Another huge difference was how little they knew about the world around them. No textbooks, encyclopedias or access to the wealth of information we have on the internet. If you wanted to learn about dinosaurs, astronomy or ancient cultures, you were pretty much out of luck unless you were filthy rich and could afford private tutors. Peasants lived and died in the same tiny village never exploring beyond their small corner of the world. So boring!There are endless examples of how our modern era is leaps and bounds better than ancient times in pretty much every aspect of life. We're surrounded by incredible technology, scientific advancements, freedom to learn and explore, and opportunities our ancestors could only dream about. We're incredibly fortunate to live in the 21st century!At the same time, I think ancient people had certain skills that are getting lost in today's world like self-reliance, appreciation for simple pleasures, and strongerfamily/community bonds. With no TV, phones or distractions they likely talked, played games and bonded way more than we do nowadays. And while their lives were harder in many ways, they were deeply connected to the natural world and cycles of the seasons in a way we can barely understand.I certainly don't want to go back to living in the ancient world - no thanks to outhouses, lack of heat, and dying from a cold! But I do think we could learn a little from their resilience, self-sufficiency and ability to find joy in the little things. Maybe we could all put down our devices for a bit, go on a beautiful hike, and rediscover a childlike appreciation for the natural world around us. Who's with me?篇2当然可以！不过小学生的作文一般长度不会达到2000个字，那会有点太长了。

以后的世界会变成什么样子英语作文
以后的世界会变成什么样子英语作文The Future WorldSociety is constantly evolving, and as we look to the future, many wonder what the world will look like. With advances in technology, shifts in global politics, and changing social norms, the future world is sure to be very different from the one we know today.One of the most notable changes in the future world will be the continued advancement of technology. With artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and robotics becoming more and more advanced, our daily lives will be drastically different.Self-driving cars will be the norm, robots will handle many jobs that are currently done by humans, and virtual reality will allow us to experience things in ways we never thought possible.In addition to technological changes, the future world will also see shifts in global politics. With the rise of new superpowers and changes to existing political alliances, the world order will be very different. Issues such as climate change, terrorism, and global inequality will continue to shape international relations, and new challenges will arise that we cannot yet foresee.Social norms will also change in the future world. With greater acceptance of diversity and the breaking down of traditional gender roles, society will be more inclusive and open-minded. Issues such as LGBTQ rights, racial equality, and women's empowerment will be at the forefront of social movements, and we will see a more progressive and tolerant world.Overall, the future world is sure to be a fascinating place, with new challenges and opportunities that we cannot yet imagine. It is up to us to stay informed, engaged, andopen-minded as we navigate the complexities of the world to come. With the right mindset and a willingness to adapt, we can help shape a future that is bright and full of potential for all.。

城市的现在和城市的以前的区别英文作文全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1Once upon a time, cities used to be very different from what they are now. In the past, cities were much smaller and simpler. There were fewer buildings and cars, and people mostly walked or rode horses to get around. But now, cities have changed a lot!Nowadays, cities are big and busy. There are tall skyscrapers, bustling streets, and so many cars everywhere! It's like a big, noisy jungle with lots of people rushing around. There are also so many things to do in the city, like shopping at malls, going to restaurants, and watching movies at the theater.In the past, cities were much quieter and calmer. People knew each other and would say hello as they passed on the street. There were small shops where you could buy things like bread and milk, and everyone would gather in the town square for events and celebrations. It was a simpler time, but people were happy and content with what they had.But now, things are different. People are always in a hurry, rushing to get to work or meet friends. There are so manydistractions and noise, and it can be hard to find a moment of peace in the city. But despite all the changes, cities are still vibrant and exciting places to live in.In conclusion, the city of today is very different from the city of the past. But both have their own charms and beauty. Whether it's the quiet simplicity of the past or the bustling energy of today, cities will always be special places where people come together to live, work, and play. The city may change, but its spirit will always remain the same.篇2Once upon a time, a long time ago, cities were very different from what they are today. Let me tell you about the differences between cities now and cities in the past.In the past, cities were much smaller and less crowded. People knew all their neighbors and would greet each other on the street. There were fewer cars on the road, so it was safer to walk or ride a bike everywhere. Nowadays, cities are huge and crowded with lots of tall buildings and skyscrapers. There are cars everywhere and the streets are always busy and noisy.In the past, cities had more green spaces and parks where people could relax and play. There were fewer buildings andmore trees and flowers. Nowadays, cities are full of concrete and glass, with very little greenery. People have to go to special parks to be close to nature.In the past, cities were not as polluted as they are today. There was less garbage and pollution in the air and water. People could breathe fresh air and drink clean water. Nowadays, cities are full of pollution from cars, factories, and garbage. The air is dirty and the water is contaminated.In the past, cities were safer and people felt more secure. There was less crime and violence on the streets. People could walk around at night without fear. Nowadays, cities are not as safe and crime rates are higher. People have to be careful and take precautions when going out.In conclusion, cities have changed a lot over the years. They have become bigger, busier, and more polluted. But there are still some things that have stayed the same, like the sense of community and the hustle and bustle of city life. I hope that in the future, cities will become more eco-friendly and sustainable for the next generations to enjoy.篇3Once upon a time, cities were very different from how they are now. In the past, cities were not as big and busy as they are today. People used to live in small houses and there were not as many cars on the roads. Instead of tall buildings, there were only a few low-rise buildings and most of the roads were made of dirt.In the past, people used to walk or ride bicycles to get around. There were not many shops or supermarkets, so people had to grow their own food or buy it from local markets. The air was much cleaner and the streets were not as crowded. Children used to play outside with their friends all day long, and there was always something fun to do.But now, cities have changed a lot. They have become much bigger and more crowded. There are tall buildings everywhere and the roads are always filled with cars and buses. People no longer know their neighbors and everyone is always in a rush. The air is polluted and it is hard to find a quiet place to relax.However, there are also many advantages to living in a modern city. There are more opportunities for work and education, and people have access to all kinds of entertainment and technology. Despite the differences between cities in the past and cities now, one thing remains the same – cities are theheart of our society and will continue to evolve and change in the future.篇4Hey guys! Today I wanna talk about the difference between cities now and cities in the past. Cities nowadays are so different from what they used to be!First of all, the buildings in cities now are much taller and more modern. Back in the old days, buildings were shorter and made of stone or wood. But now, we have skyscrapers made of glass and steel that reach up into the sky! It's like living in a sci-fi movie.Secondly, transportation in cities has changed a lot. In the past, people had to walk or ride horses to get around. But now, we have cars, buses, trains, and even airplanes to take us wherever we want to go. It's so much faster and easier to travel around the city now.Another big difference is the technology we have in cities today. In the past, people didn't have things like smartphones, computers, or the internet. But now, we rely on these things for almost everything we do. It's crazy to think about how much things have changed in such a short amount of time.But even with all these changes, some things stay the same. People in cities still work hard, play hard, and look out for each other. The sense of community is still strong, even in the midst of all this change.So, while cities now are different from cities in the past, they still have the same heart and soul that make them special. And who knows what cities will look like in the future? The possibilities are endless!篇5Once upon a time, there was a city that looked very different from how it looks today. Let me tell you all about the differences between the city's past and present.In the past, the city was much smaller and less crowded. There were not as many tall buildings and the streets were not as busy as they are now. People used to travel by horse and carriage, and there were not as many cars on the road. The city was quieter and cleaner, with more green spaces and less pollution.But now, everything has changed. The city has grown bigger and more crowded. There are skyscrapers everywhere you look, and the streets are always full of cars and buses. The air is not asfresh as it used to be, and there is a lot more noise and pollution in the city.In the past, people used to spend more time outdoors, playing in the parks and gardens. But now, many people spend their time indoors, working or watching TV. The pace of life has become faster, and people seem to always be in a hurry to get somewhere.Despite all these changes, the city still has its charms. There are more opportunities and amenities now, with shopping malls, restaurants, cinemas, and other entertainment options. The city has become more diverse and vibrant, with people from all walks of life coming together to create a unique and dynamic community.In conclusion, the city has changed a lot over the years. While there are many differences between the city's past and present, one thing remains the same – the spirit and energy of the city that continues to thrive and evolve. And who knows what the future holds for this ever-changing city? Only time will tell.篇6Title: The Differences Between the City Now and BeforeHey everyone!

There were fewer cars on the roads, and people mostly got around by walking or riding horses. There were no tall buildings or skyscrapers like we see today. Instead, there were lots of small houses and shops all clustered together.But now, cities are huge and bustling with energy! There are so many people everywhere, and the streets are always crowded. Cars zoom by on the roads, honking their horns and causing traffic jams. Tall buildings reach up towards the sky, and neon lights illuminate the city at night.In the past, people used to rely on candles and lanterns to light up their homes. But now, we have electricity and streetlights that brighten up the city streets. Technology has also changed a lot, with smartphones and computers being used everywhere you look.Another big difference is the amount of green spaces in the city. Back then, there were fewer parks and gardens for people to relax in.

这是一篇美国总统，约翰.肯尼迪1961的就职演讲稿，很强的政治的政治色彩。
（顺便可以去看看奥巴马的就职演讲稿）
翻译：现在的世界已大不相同了。
人类的巨手掌握着既能消灭人间的各种贫困，又能毁灭人间的各种生活的力量。
但我们的先辈为之奋斗的那些革命信念，在世界各地仍然有着争论。
这个信念就是人的权利并非来自国家的慷慨，而是来自上帝恩赐。
今天，我们不敢忘记我们是第一次革命的继承者。
让我们的朋友和敌人同样听见我此时此地的讲话：火炬已经传给新一代美国人。
这一代人在本世纪诞生，在战争中受过锻
炼，在艰难困苦的和平时期受过陶冶，他们为我国悠久的传统感到自豪——他们不愿目睹或听任我国一向保证的、今天仍在国内外作出保证的人权渐趋毁灭。
让每个国家都知道——不论它希望我们繁荣还是希望我们衰落一为确保自由的存在和自由的胜利，我们将付出任何代价，承受任何负担，应付任何艰难，支持任何朋友，反抗任何敌人。
这些就是我们的保证——而且还有更多的保证。
对那些和我们有着共同文化和精神渊源的老盟友，我们保证待以诚实朋友那样的忠诚。
我们如果团结一致，就能在许多合作事业中无往不胜：我们如果分歧对立，就会一事无成——因为我们不敢在争吵不休、四分五裂时迎接强大的挑战。
对那些我们欢迎其加入到自由行列中来的新国家，我们恪守我们的誓言：决不让一种更为残酷的暴政来取代一种消失的殖民统治。
我们并不总是指望他们会支持我们的观点。
但我们始终希望看到他们坚强地维护自己的自由——而且要记住，在历史上，凡愚蠢地狐假虎威者，终必葬身虎口。
