But when Christmas to China, the kind of solemn and sacred disappeared, the people on the street with the inflatable stick luanqiao cookin, pedestrian people winter crazy hit be strangers to each other.

I know that in Christianity, the night of peace is the day of the birth of Jesus Christ, a day of holy and solemn. On the night of 24, my mother took me to the largest Catholic Church in Chengdu in order to increase my understanding of Christmas. On the road, I imagined the church looks like, I think, in the Church of the highest place must have a cross! Into a Catholic Church, a melodious chant of "Hallelujah" drifted into my ears, the church spire had a cross, dim moonlight, water sprinkled on the roof of the church, Ying on the cross. Across the long corridor of the church, a statue of Jesus stood alone under the pale light. I touched my toes curiously. It's cool. I left the statue.
In addition to the gate, entering the courtyard on the left, it was a 10 meter high Christmas tree, with a silver cross on the tip of the tree. The tree filled with lanterns, and dotted with angels, snowball snowman. I crossed a cross in front of my chest. I looked at the huge Christmas tree. I thought of the gods in the sky.

英语作文 篇3
i was not yet 30 years old and was working as a firefighter in the south brons engine co. 82, probably the worlds most active firehouse at the time. it was warm and sunny, the kind of leisurely sunday that brought etra activity to the neighborhood and to its firefighters. we must have had 15 or 20 calls that day, the worst being a garbage fire in the rear of an abandoned building, which required a hard pull of 600 feet of cotton-jacketed hose.
between alarms i would rush to the company office to read captain grays copy of the sunday new york times. it was late in the afternoon when i finally got to the book review section. as i read it, my blood began to boil. an article blatantly stated what i took to be a calumny -- that william butler yeats, the nobel prize-winning light of the irish literary renaissance, had transcended his irishness and was forever to be known as a universal poet.
there were few things i was more proud of than my irish heritage, and ever since i first picked up a book of his poems from a barracks shelf when i was in the military, yeats had been my favorite irish writer, followed by sean ocasey and james joyce.
my ancestors were irish farmers, fishermen and blue-collar workers, but as far as i can tell, they all had a feeling for literature. it was passed on to my own mother, a telephone operator, who hardly ever sat down without a book in her hands. and at that moment my own fingernails might have been soiled with the soot of the days fires, but i felt as prepared as any trinity don to stand up in the court of public opinion and protest. not only that yeats had lived his life and written his poetry through the very essence of his irish sensibility, but that it was offensive to think irishness -- no matter if it was psychological, social or literary -- was something to be transcended.
my stomach was churning, and i determined not to let an idle minute pass. hey, captain gray. could i use your typewriter? i asked.
the typewriter was so old that i had to use just one finger to type, my strongest one, even though i could type with all ten. i grabbed the first piece of clean paper i could find -- one that had the logo of the fire department of the city of new york across the top -- and, hoping there would be a break in the alarms for 20 minutes or so, wrote out a four-paragraph letter of indignation to the editor of the sunday book review.
throughout his poetry, i postulated, yeats yearned for a messiah to lead ireland out from under the bondage of english rule, and his view of the world and the people in it was fundamentally irish.
just as i addressed the envelope, the final alarm of my tour came in, and as i slid down the long brass pole, i felt unepectedly calm, as if a great rock had been purged from the bottom of my stomach.
i dont know why i felt it my obligation to safeguard the reputation of the worlds greatest poet, at least net to homer and shakespeare, or to inscribe an apologia for irish writing. i just knew that i had to write that letter, in the same way a priest has to pray, or a musician has to play an instrument.
until that point in my life i had not written much of value -- a few poems and short stories, the beginning of a coming-of-age novel. i knew that my writing was anything but refined. like a beginning artist who loves to draw, i understood that the more one draws, or writes, or does anything, the better the end result will be, and so i wrote often to better control my writing skills, to master them. i sent some material to various magazines and reviews but found no one willing to publish me.
it was a special and unepected delight, then, when i learned something id written would finally see print. ironically it wasnt one of my poems or short stories -- it was my letter to the times. i suppose the editor decided to publish it because he was first attracted by the official nature of my stationery (was his staff taking smoke breaks out on the fire escape?), and then by the incongruity of a ghetto firefighters using words like messianism, for in the lines below my letter it was announced that i was a new york city firefighter. id like to think, though, that the editor silently agreed with my thesis.
i remember receiving through the fire departments address about 20 sympathetic and congratulatory letters from professors around the country. these letters made me feel like i was not only a published writer but an opinion maker. it was as if i was suddenly thrust into being someone whose views mattered.
i also received a letter from true magazine and one from the new yorker, asking for an interview. it was the latter that proved momentous, for when an article titled fireman smith appeared in that magazine, i received a telephone call from the editor of a large publishing firm who asked if i might be interested in writing a book about my life.
i had little confidence in my ability to write a whole book, though i did intuit that my work as a firefighter was a worthy subject. and so i wrote report from engine co. 82 in si months, and it went on to sell two million copies and to be translated into 12 languages. in the years that followed, i wrote three more best-sellers, and last year published a memoir, a song for mary: an irish-american memory.
being a writer had been far from my epectations; being a best-selling author was almost unfathomable. how had it happened? i often found myself thinking about it, marveling at it, and my thoughts always came back to that letter to the new york times.
for me, the clearest eplanation is that i had found the subject i was searching for, one i felt so strongly about that the writing was a natural consequence of the passion i felt. i was to feel this same kind of passion when i began writing about firefighters and, later, when writing about my mother. these are subjects that, to me, represent the great values of human life -- decency, honesty and fairness -- subjects that burn within me as i write.
over the years, all five of my children have come to me periodically with one dilemma or another. should i study english or art? should i go out for soccer or basketball? should i take a job with this company or that one?
my answer is always the same, yet they still ask, for reassurance is a good and helpful thing. think about what youre feeling deep down in the pit of your stomach, i tell them, and measure the heat of the fire there, for that is the passion that will flow through your heart. your education and your eperience will guide you toward making a right decision, but your passion will enable you to make a difference in whatever you do.
thats what i learned the day i stood up for irelands greatest poet.
英语作文 篇4
July was a very wonderful month for me. Because I had a chance to go to Singapore. It was the first time I went to a foreign country. So I had a special experience.
Like the old say, “There is no best in world, but there is better.” I knew it after I had been to Singapore.
Singapore is called “a Garden City”. The weather is warm the whole year. You can walk under the bluish green sky with white clouds in it, and you will be intoxicated with the sweet flowers and green trees and grasses. When you are having meals, a number of little birds will fly to your plate and share food with you. Singapore is a home for both human and animals.
The students in Singapore are talented. They are zealous, polite, brave, united and healthy. In the process of making friends with them, we learnt a lot from each other, although we were from different countries and spoke different languages.
The most profound thing to me is that the students from Human High School are honest. I still remembered the one day that they had to write from memory. They didn’t look around though they sat next to each other. I think it was very good though it was a little thing.
This travel in Singapore made me know a lot. I will never forget it.

It was snow just now, there are lots of snow in the sky. The rivers are stopping flowing. The ground is covered with a layer of snow.
The snow looks like smoke, it's white. It likes a piece of paper. The snow fall from the sky. It kisses the ground. How white the snow is! How beautiful the snow is!
I like snow! I like winter!

英语作文 篇7
Things in the world are changing. People are changing and every creature is changing. Changing is a neutral word. We can’t judge it is good or bad in general, because every coin has two sides. But sometimes we need to change, because it is good for us. Sometimes we will meet some difficult or uncomfortable situation. When we are not able to change it, we need to change ourselves. If both of us refuse to budge, the problem would not be solved.
Sometimes we need to change our life attitude; sometimes we need to change our views of seeing things; sometimes we need to tolerant; sometimes we need to be strong. Changing ourselves according to the specific situation is good for us.
结语:以上是小编推荐的内容。我们的人生往往是不会一帆风顺的,有的时候,为了更加的进步,我们是需要改变自己。改变自己是一个自我完善的过程。三国时的东吴名将吕蒙就是一个非常好的例子。吕蒙开始时只是晓得舞刀弄枪,不能勤于文化知识的'培养,孙权在给吕蒙指出这一点之后,吕蒙发奋读书,后来连鲁肃都说:士别三日,当刮目相看。吕蒙因为孙权的一席话,改变了自己,真正做到了文武双全,为成就吴国的霸业打下基础。而吕蒙自然也就完善了自己的人格和修养,成功的改变了自己。
