牛津八年级下册英语第4单元作文

牛津八年级下册英语第4单元作文全文共6篇示例,供读者参考篇1A Day in the Life of an Elementary School StudentHi there! My name is Emma and I'm a 10-year-old student in 5th grade at Oakwood Elementary School. I thought I'd share what a typical day is like for me so you can get an idea of the life of an elementary school kid. Here goes!My day always starts with my mom coming into my room around 7am to wake me up. I'm definitely not a morning person, so it usually takes a couple reminder calls before I finally roll out of bed. Once I'm up though, I head to the kitchen for a quick breakfast - maybe some cereal, toast, or if I'm feeling fancy, a waffle or pancakes!After fueling up, it's off to the bathroom to get ready. I brush my teeth, wrestle with my thick, frizzy hair to get it looking halfway decent in a ponytail or braids, throw on my school uniform, and I'm set. My mom makes sure I've packed my backpack with homework, a snack, my lunchbox, and anything else I might need for after-school activities.The best part of my morning is when my dad drives me to school. We have a nice 15 minute father-daughter chat time in the car where I fill him in on all the latest drama and gossip happening at school. He acts like he's not interested, but I know he secretly loves hearing about it!I get dropped off at school around 8:15am and I have about15 minutes before the first bell rings to hang out with my friends on the playground or in our homeroom class. We spend that time comparing outfits, trading snacks and toys, and getting in a few games of handball or four square.The morning goes by in a blur with classes like math, reading, science, and social studies. I really enjoy subjects like art and music where we get to be more creative and hands-on. My favorite part of any school day is lunchtime though! I meet up with my group of friends and we spend the hour chatting, laughing, playing games on the playground, and maybe even choreographing a new dance routine.In the afternoon we usually have one or two more academic classes, followed by PE or another special like computer lab or library time. I absolutely dread PE though - having to get all sweaty and run around is just not my thing! Computer lab is way more my speed.Once the final bell rings at 3pm, I head to the cafeteria to meet up with my aftercare group. We get a snack, have some free playtime indoors or outside, and then settle in to work on homework assignments until our parents arrive to pick us up in the evening. The homework part is such a drag after being at school all day already!On Mondays and Wednesdays, my mom comes to grab me at 5pm before heading to my dance classes from 5:30-7pm. I've been taking ballet, tap, jazz and hip hop since I was pretty little. It's such a fun way to stay active and I love getting to perform in recitals a couple times a year!The rest of the week days, my dad picks me up from aftercare around 6pm. We head home, I quickly re-fuel with an after-school snack, and then it's straight to homework time. Once that's done, I have a little bit of free time to watch some TV, play on my tablet, or catch up on the all-important socialization via FaceTime or text with my friends.We have a family dinner around 7pm, followed by some more free time until I need to start getting ready for bed around 8:30pm. I take a shower, get my pajamas on, and spend some time winding down - maybe by reading, coloring, or doing a facemask if I'm feeling fancy. Finally, I'm tucked into bed by 9pmfor some much-needed rest before doing it all again the next day!I know being an elementary school kid keeps me pretty busy between all of my classes, homework, activities, and just trying to keep up with the neverending friend drama. But I honestly wouldn't want it any other way. These are some of the best years of my life and I'm just trying to soak up as much fun as I can!Well, that's a typical day in my elementary school life! I warned you it would be a wild ride. Being a kid today is definitely not all playgrounds and naptime anymore. We're pretty much mini-adults with all of our academic responsibilities andjam-packed schedules. But I'm grateful for every minute of it and can't wait to see what middle school has in store! Thanks for following along with my day.篇2My Favorite Animal - The Majestic ElephantHave you ever seen an elephant up close before? I had the chance to do that last year when my family went on an amazing safari in Kenya. We saw so many incredible animals, but the elephants were definitely my favorite! Let me tell you all about these gentle giants.First of all, elephants are absolutely massive. The biggest ones can weigh up to 6 tons! That's like the weight of about 40 adult humans. Their bodies are grey and wrinkly, with giant floppy ears that they use almost like fans to keep cool. Their trunks are so versatile - they use them to breathe, drink water, grab food, and even greet each other. And of course, their long ivory tusks are so iconic.What fascinates me most about elephants is how intelligent they are. Their brains weigh about 5kg, which is the largest brain of any land animal. They're able to use tools, have excellent memories, mimic sounds, and even display self-awareness by recognizing themselves in a mirror. Some scientists think they may even have consciousness and ability to feel complex emotions like grief.Elephants live in very tight family groups called herds. The herds are led by the oldest female, called the matriarch. She uses her years of built-up wisdom to guide the herd, remembering where to find food and water over huge distances. The other adult females act like aunts, helping to care for and protect the young calves. Baby elephants are just the cutest, sticking close to their moms and aunts. The males leave the herd once they reachadolescence and live more solitary lives or form smaller male groups.Seeing elephants in their natural habitat on safari was such an incredible experience. We'd wake up at the crack of dawn and set out in our jeep to try to locate the different herds. I'll never forget one morning spotting a huge bull elephant walking alone, using his trunk to snap branches off the trees. Our guide told us he was a lone male who had been kicked out of his herd. As we watched, another slightly smaller male emerged, and the two started sizing each other up, flaring their ears out wide in a display of dominance. They started pushing against each other with their full weight, their tusks clashing together. It was an awesome sight to see two of the largest land mammals battling it out!We also got to watch family herds going about their daily routines. We saw them slowly parading in a line to their watering hole, calves frolicking and playing with each other. I was amazed at how the adults were so protective yet so gentle with their young. We watched as they drank deeply with their trunks, sprayed water over their backs to stay cool, and enjoyed a morning mud bath. A couple of frisky adolescent males got told off by the matriarch for horsing around too much! The babieswere especially fun to watch, so cute and silly as they tried to mimic the adults' behaviors like dust bathing and mud slinging.One of the most poignant moments was when we came across a lone female standing vigil over the body of what looked like a deceased calf. Our guide explained that elephants are one of the few animals that have認ized grieving behaviors, essentially holding vigils and "funerals." As we watched, two other females came and joined her, reaching out their trunks and taking turns exploring and caressing the remains with such tenderness. It was heartbreaking yet somehow beautiful to see thisDisplay of their deep family bonds and apparent emotional intelligence.I felt so fortunate to be able to see elephants in their natural environment and observe their family dynamics and behaviors. More than anything, it made me realize how important it is that we protect these amazing yet vulnerable creatures. Poaching for their ivory tusks has decimated elephant populations, which have declined by over 60% in the last decade alone. If we don't take action, elephants could be extinct in the wild within our lifetimes.These intelligent, emotional beings deserve to roam free and thrive in their ancestral homelands, not be gunned downmercilessly for profits. We need stronger enforcement and harsher penalties for poachers to save the elephants. We also need to protect the wildlife reserves and national parks where the remaining elephants live, resisting pressures from human encroachment, deforestation and development.I've become such an advocate for elephant conservation since coming face to trunk with these majestic creatures on my trip. I started an elephant club at my school to raise awareness and money for anti-poaching patrols. I've also been lobbying my political representatives to strengthen laws against ivory trade and increase funding for habitat preservation. Every one of us can do our part, whether it's refusing to buy ivory products, donating to conservation groups, or even just educating others. We simply cannot let this iconic species that's roamed the earth for millions of years become another tragic victim of human greed.Elephants have so much to teach us about family, intelligence, emotion and the majesty of nature. From the smallest calf to the largest matriarch,篇3My Journey with English in 8th GradeHey there! I'm an 8th grader, and I have to say, this year has been a wild ride when it comes to learning English. Don't get me wrong, I've been studying it for years, but 8th grade just hit different, you know? Let me walk you through my experience with Unit 4 of our textbook.The unit kicked off with this massive reading about environmental issues. I'm talking pages upon pages about pollution, climate change, and all that heavy stuff. I'm not gonna lie; my eyes started glazing over after the first few paragraphs. But then something clicked – the more I read, the more I realized how much these issues really matter. It was like a light bulb went off in my head.That's when the class discussions started getting intense. We had to analyze the reading, pull out the main ideas, and form our own opinions. My teacher kept pushing us to use more advanced vocabulary and sentence structures. Suddenly, words like "sustainability" and "carbon footprint" were just rolling off my tongue. I felt like a mini eco-warrior, armed with the English skills to fight for a greener planet.But it wasn't all about saving the world (even though that's obviously important). We also learned how to write persuasive essays on environmental topics. Let me tell you, trying to craft asolid thesis statement and supporting arguments was no joke. I must have rewritten my introduction paragraph a million times. My teacher's feedback was brutal, but it helped me become a better writer. By the end, I could probably have convinced a rock to start recycling.Speaking of rocks, we had this whole section on natural disasters, too. Earthquakes, tsunamis, you name it – we covered it all. The vocabulary was insane! Words like "tectonic plates" and "seismic activity" had me feeling like a junior geologist. And don't even get me started on the grammar lessons about using the past perfect tense to describe events. My brain was working overtime, but I kind of loved the challenge.Then came the real kicker – the group project. We had to research an environmental organization, create a presentation, and deliver it in front of the entire class. Talk aboutnerve-wracking! But you know what? We rocked it. My group chose to focus on Greenpeace, and we poured our hearts into that project. From crafting visually appealing slides to nailing our delivery, we gave it our all. And the best part? We used so much of the language and skills we'd learned throughout the unit.Looking back, Unit 4 was a game-changer for me. It pushed me out of my comfort zone and forced me to tackle complextopics in English. I had to learn how to express myself clearly, support my arguments with evidence, and engage with challenging material. And you know what? I wouldn't have it any other way.Now, as I get ready to move on to 9th grade, I can't help but feel a sense of pride and accomplishment. Unit 4 wasn't just about learning English; it was about growing as a student, a critical thinker, and a global citizen. I'm walking away with a deeper understanding of the world around me and the language skills to tackle whatever comes next.So, here's to Unit 4 and all the blood, sweat, and tears that went into conquering it. I may be leaving 8th grade behind, but the lessons I've learned will stick with me forever. Who knows, maybe one day I'll be the one leading the charge for a greener, more sustainable future – all thanks to the solid English foundation I built this year.Catch you on the flip side, 9th grade! I'm coming for you, armed with my newly honed English skills and a passion for making a difference. Bring it on!篇4My Summer Vacation AdventuresSummer vacation is the best time of the year! No school, no homework, and no waking up early. Just pure freedom to do whatever I want. This past summer was especially exciting for me because my family and I went on not one, but two amazing trips!Our first adventure took us to a beautiful beach resort in Florida. I had never seen the ocean before, so I was absolutely mesmerized by its vastness and the sound of the crashing waves. The first thing I did when we arrived was run straight into the water, clothes and all! The salty taste was a bit strange at first, but I quickly got used to it. My parents had to practically drag me out of the ocean for meals.When I wasn't splashing around in the waves, I enjoyed building sandcastles and burying my little brother up to his neck in the warm, soft sand. He didn't find it as funny as I did, but that's what siblings are for, right? In the evenings, we would take long walks along the beach, searching for seashells and watching the stunning sunsets paint the sky with brilliant shades of orange and pink.One day, we even went on a dolphin-watching cruise! It was incredible to see these magnificent creatures swimming gracefully alongside our boat. I tried my best to imitate their jumps and flips, much to the amusement of the other passengers.I also got to hold a starfish and a hermit crab during an interactive marine life presentation. They felt so weird and squishy in my hands!After a week of sun, sand, and sea, it was time to head back home. But our summer adventures weren't over yet! A few weeks later, we packed our bags and hit the road for a camping trip in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.The first thing that struck me was the sheer size of the mountains. They seemed to stretch on forever, their peaks disappearing into the clouds. The fresh mountain air was invigorating, and the lush greenery surrounding us was like something out of a fairytale.Our campsite was nestled in a secluded area, surrounded by towering trees and a babbling stream. We pitched our tent and built a cozy campfire, roasting marshmallows and swapping ghost stories as the sun dipped below the horizon. The stars at night were breathtaking – I had never seen so many before!During the day, we went on several hikes, exploring the winding trails and discovering hidden waterfalls, wildflowers, and even a few curious deer. One of the highlights was a visit to Cades Cove, a historic settlement with old log cabins andchurches dating back to the 1800s. It was like stepping back in time!On our final day, we decided to go tubing down a lazy river. It was both relaxing and exhilarating at the same time, floating along with the current and taking in the stunning natural scenery. At one point, I even spotted a black bear foraging for food on the riverbank! Needless to say, I paddled a little faster after that encounter.All too soon, our camping trip came to an end, and it was time to head back home. As we drove away, I pressed my face against the car window, trying to etch every detail of those majestic mountains into my memory.This summer was truly one for the books. I made so many wonderful memories and experienced things I had only dreamed of before. From the salty ocean waves to the crisp mountain air, each adventure was more exciting than the last.I can't wait to see what next summer has in store for me. Maybe we'll go explore a bustling city or visit a remote island paradise. Wherever we end up, I know it will be an unforgettable journey filled with new sights, sounds, and experiences.For now, though, it's back to school and homework. But whenever I start to feel overwhelmed, I'll just close my eyes and let my mind drift back to those carefree summer days. The memories will keep me going until the next adventure begins.篇5My Dream VacationI've been dreaming of the perfect vacation for as long as I can remember. Every night before I go to bed, I close my eyes and imagine myself in an amazing place, surrounded by new sights, sounds, and experiences. This dream vacation of mine isn't just about lounging on a beach or going to an amusement park – it's about exploration, adventure, and creating unforgettable memories.If I could plan the ultimate getaway, the first thing I'd do is gather my closest friends and family members. Vacations are always better when you can share them with the people you love most. We'd pack our bags with all the essentials – sunscreen, cameras, snacks for the road, and a couple of good books to read during downtimes. Then we'd pile into a couple of cars and hit the open road, ready for whatever adventures lie ahead.Our first stop would be the Grand Canyon. I've seen pictures, but I can only imagine how breathtaking it must be in person. We'd spend a few days hiking along the rim trails, soaking in the incredible views of the massive canyon carved by the Colorado River over millions of years. At night, we'd set up our tents and gaze up at the endless stars blanketing the sky – a sight you simply can't appreciate fully with all the light pollution in the city.After the Grand Canyon, we'd continue our road trip north to Yellowstone National Park. This place is like something out of a fantasy world, with its rainbow-colored hot springs, shooting geysers, and fields full of roaming bison and elk. We'd drive along the scenic routes, stopping frequently to admire the waterfalls and snap photos of the breathtaking landscapes. If we're really lucky, maybe we'd even spot a grizzly bear lumbering through the trees!Our next destination would be up in the Pacific Northwest, where we'd spend a week exploring the lush, green forests and rocky coastlines. We'd go for hikes on cliffside trails with sweeping views of the crashing waves far below. We'd also stop in the city of Seattle, visiting iconic sites like the Space Needle and Pike Place Market. And of course, no trip to this region would be complete without a visit to a real live volcano – MountRainier towers over the landscape, daring us to hike to its snowy summit.After so much time spent out in nature, our final stop would be an urban adventure in New York City. The "City That Never Sleeps" has so much to offer in terms of arts, culture, food, and entertainment. We'd spend our days visiting world-class museums like the Met and the American Museum of Natural History. In the evenings, we'd take in a Broadway show or two, catching dinner at one of NYC's countless famous restaurants. With so much energy and excitement around every corner, we'd never run out of new things to explore.Throughout this epic cross-country journey, we'd create so many wonderful memories to look back on – spotting wildlife in their natural habitats, pushing our bodies to new limits on challenging hikes, and immersing ourselves in the diverse cultures that make this country so unique and amazing. While I enjoy exploring new places, at the end of the day, the best part of any vacation is sharing those experiences with the people you love.篇6Title: My Summer Adventure Camp ExperienceIt was the first day of summer vacation, and I was both excited and nervous. For weeks, my parents had been telling me about this amazing adventure camp they had signed me up for. "It'll be good for you," they said. "You'll make new friends, learn new skills, and have tons of fun!" I wasn't so sure about that last part, but I tried to keep an open mind.The camp was located deep in the woods, far away from the city. As we drove up the winding dirt road, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. What if I didn't fit in? What if the other kids made fun of me? These worries quickly melted away as we pulled into the camp grounds. The place was bustling with activity, and the energy was infectious.After checking in, I was immediately whisked away to meet my cabin mates. There were eight of us in total, all around the same age. Some were outgoing and boisterous, while others were quieter and more reserved. Despite our differences, we quickly bonded over our shared apprehension about the upcoming weeks.The first few days were a whirlwind of activities. We went hiking, canoeing, rock climbing, and even tried our hand at archery. I'll admit, I was a bit clumsy at first, but the instructorswere patient and encouraging. They taught us valuable skills like teamwork, perseverance, and problem-solving.One of my favorite activities was the ropes course. At first, the towering obstacles and precarious walkways filled me with dread. But as I navigated each challenge, my confidence grew. By the end, I was zipping across the final zip line, whooping with joy.Evenings at the camp were just as memorable as the days. We'd gather around the campfire, roasting marshmallows and swapping stories. Some of the older campers would regale us with tales of past adventures, their eyes shining with excitement. It was during these moments that I felt a deep sense of camaraderie with my fellow campers.As the weeks flew by, I found myself growing in ways I never expected. I became more self-assured, more resilient, and more appreciative of the great outdoors. The camp had taught me that stepping out of my comfort zone could lead to incredible experiences and personal growth.On the final night, as we sat around the campfire for the last time, I looked around at my newfound friends. These were the people who had laughed with me, cried with me, and pushed me to be the best version of myself. We had started as strangers, but we were leaving as a family.As I bid farewell to the camp, I knew that the memories and lessons I had learned would stay with me forever. The adventure camp had been a transformative experience, one that had shaped me into a more confident, capable, and well-rounded individual.Now, as I look back on that summer, I can't help but feel grateful for the opportunity. It was an experience that taught me the value of stepping out of my comfort zone, embracing new challenges, and forming lasting bonds with those around me. Who knows? Maybe next summer, I'll sign up for another adventure camp and continue exploring the great outdoors.。

Skills of listening for emphasisTeaching methodsListening, individual work and group workTeaching aidsA computer and a projectorTeaching procedures and waysGeneral introductionThis section consists of a series of activities which provide you with an opportunity to practice your listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. The Task is divided into three steps and each step is preceded with a skills building activity. Through the three steps, you will learn how to complete a quiz, how to listen for emphasis and how to use information from more than one source. You are expected to apply what you have learnt in the skills building parts to write a speech about the film industry.Skills building 1: completing a quizIn a quiz, we are usually asked to answer some questions. What should we do when we take a quiz and what steps we should take to make sure that we answer the questions correctly? Let’s read the guidelines and the three steps on our books. After that you will have a chance to complete a quiz about the film industry.Step 1: completing a quiz about the film industryThis part is designed to help you develop your listening skills. You will listen to two radio programmes discussing the early days of film, and then read a web page about film facts. You are expected to use all of the information to complete a film quiz. Before listening, you can look through the questions first.1. Listen to the tape.information about Hollywood, and you can use the information to answer some of theremaining questions on the quiz. I’ll play the recording twice if it is necessary for you.4. I’ll check the answers as a class to see which questions you have already foundThis part is designed to help you pay attention to the words or information emphasized in a question to answer it exactly. In the Grammar and usage section of this unit, we learnt how to emphasize some parts of sentences by adding some words or using certain sentence structures. Are there any other ways that we can emphasize some words or information, especially when we are speaking? Sometimes we stress the words we want to emphasize. Now let’s go over Skills building 2.Step 2: asking and answering questions about Chinese filmsIn this part, you should work in pairs to conduct an interview about Chinese films. You are expected to practice the speaking skills you have learnt in Skills building 2.1. Go over the instructions so that you know what to do in Step2. Then read all the questions and answers and make sure that you know what you are going to do.2. Work in pairs to do this role-play activity, asking and answering questions about Chinese films. When asking questions, you should emphasize the words in bold. The student who is answering questions should repeat the emphasized words. After you finish asking and answering these questions, you should switch roles. In this way, every one of you will have a chance to practice emphasizing.Skills building 3: using information from more than one sourceIn this part, you will learn what you need to do to prepare the information for a speech or an essay competition.T:What will you do before you attend a speech or an essay competition? Give as many answers as you can.S1: know what the subject of the competition isS2: find out different aspects of the subject and write the draftS3: do research on the aspects that you do not knowT: Review what you have learnt about the film industry in Steps 1 and 2. List the information you have already obtained, and think about what else you will need in making the speech or writing the essay for the competition.

It was my six-year-old son’s winter break form school, and we wereheading home from Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip. The flight was overbooked, and Delta, the airline, offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day. I had meetings in New York,So I had to get back. But that didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay. I took my nine-month-old and took off for home.The next day, my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight. Yes, I encouraged—okay, ordered—them to wait it out at the airport, to "earn" more Delta Dollars. Our total take: $1,600. Not bad, huh?Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either. But as abig-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar. And these days, a good deal is something few of us can afford to pass up.I've made living looking for the best deals and exposing (揭露)the worst tricks. I have been the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade. I have written a couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide. And I really do what I believe in.I tell you this because there is no shame in getting your money’s worth. I’m also tightfisted when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children, and expensive restaurants. But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut. It keeps its shape longer, and it's the first thing people notice. And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture. Quality lasts.56. Why did Delta give the author's family credits?A. They took a later flight.B. They had early bookings.C. Their flight had been delayed.D. Their flight had been cancelled.57. What can we learn about the author?A. She rarely misses a good deal.B.

How to make a business deal.BIt’s hard to find a star shining brighter in Nashville than Kenny Chesney. Since he took off 15 years ago, this country musician has sold more than 25 million albums, has had sixteen No. 1 hits, won countless awards and had a sea of loyal fans who have made him the biggest North American concert-ticket seller.Kenny is certainly at the height of his career as he releases his Greatest Hits II album this week. It’s a collection of songs in which h e says each takes him to a different place or event in his life. The most personal is the song I’m Alive, Kenny tells The Boot. "Most of the songs on this record are really fun, but I wrote I’m Alive after my breakup with Renee. I woke up one day and reali zed, even though I had gone through this and didn’t feel good about it, my life still belongs to me. I’m alive; I get to make music; I’ve got a lot of great friends. That’s the message of the song."Kenny insists that the song selection for Greatest Hits II is not formulaic(刻板的). In addition to the hits that climbed the country charts, the singer also wanted to include some songs unknownto his fans that reflected his life and career path. "I didn’t want it to be all hits; I wanted it to be a second chapter of my life in music," he explains. "So the song Beas You Are really does that for me."Kenny recently celebrated his 41st birthday, but the number of candles on the cake didn’t depress him a bit, thanks to what he loves so deeply."I still feel like I’m 18,"he says. "Living life the way you do on the road, it definitely keeps you feeling that way. And I think people that have music in their life are a lot better off (富有) and healthier than people that don’t. I’ve been very content to have not just a little bit of music in my life, but a whole lot of music. It drives my life."60. Kenny Chesney refers to one of his songs I’m Alive for the purpose of _________.A. telling his fans about his breakup with his girlfriendB. inspiring his fans with confidence in lifeC. calling on people to make music like himD. advertising his new album to increase sales61. We can learn from the passage that Kenny Chesney ______.A. is a star not only in Nashville, but also around the worldB. won few awards for his work in country musicC. was at his most successful when Greatest Hits II was releasedD. selected nothing but big hits for Greatest Hits II62. What is the relationship between music and life, according to Kenny Chesney?A. Music is a way of earning a lot of money.B. Music always makes people feel they are 18.C. Music gives life power, besides wealth and health.D. Music is the most important part of everyone’s life.【参考答案】21-25 ACBCA 26-30 DBBAD 31-35 DCADA36-40 CCDAB 41-45 DABAC 46-50 CDDBA 51-55 BCADB56-60 BCACB 61-62 CC附:【短语整理一】1. 为…辩护in defence of2. 不管;不顾regardless of3. 区分A和B distinguish A between B4. 只要;长达as long as5. 达到我们的标准meet our standards6. 接管take over7. 退步take a step backwards8. 给…颁奖give awards to9. 占少数in the minority10. 有机会获奖have the chance of winning。
