Most of it goes into "landfills".We do not kown exactly where all these landfills are.And in fact,they are in most of our suburbs,close to where we live.
It may be hard to believe, but most of the cities in China are surrounded by rubbish.But putting the rubbish in landfills takes up too much space.
Another way to get rid of rubbish is to burn it.But this pollutes the air around us.The third way is recycling.This is becoming more popular.Plus,it is much better for our environment.

英語美文 - All that is beautiful （上）
第一篇： grain of sand
一粒沙子
william blake/威廉.布萊克
to see a world in a grain of sand,
and a heaven in a wild fllower,
hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
and eternity in an hour.
從一粒沙子看到一個世界，
從一朵野花看到一個天堂，
把握在你手心裡的就是無限，
永恆也就消融於一個時辰。
第二篇：love your life
熱愛生活
henry david thoreau/享利.大衛.梭羅
however mean your life is,meet it and live it ;do not shun it and call it hard names.it is not so bad as you are.it looks poorest when you are richest.the fault-finder will find faults in paradise.love your life,poor as it is.you may perhaps have some pleasant,thrilling,glorious hourss,even in a poor-house.the setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man's abode;the snow melts before its door as early in the spring.i do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there,and have as cheering thoughts,as in a palace.the town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any.may be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving.most think that they are above being supported by the town;but it often happens that they are not above supporting themselves by dishonest means.which should be more disreputable.cultivate poverty like a garden herb,like sage.do not trouble yourself much to get new things,whether clothes or friends,turn the old,return to them.things do not change;we change.sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
不論你的生活如何卑賤，你要面對它生活，不要躲避它，更別用惡言咒罵它。它不像你那樣壞。你最富有的時候，倒是看似最窮。愛找缺點的人就是到天堂里也能找到缺點。你要愛你的生活，盡管它貧窮。甚至在一個濟貧院里，你也還有愉快、高興、光榮的時候。夕陽反射在濟貧院的窗上，像身在富戶人家窗上一樣光亮；在那門前，積雪同在早春融化。我只看到，一個從容的人，在哪裡也像在皇宮中一樣，生活得心滿意足而富有愉快的思想。城鎮中的窮人，我看，倒往往是過著最獨立不羈的生活。也許因為他們很偉大，所以受之無愧。大多數人以為他們是超然的，不靠城鎮來支援他們；可是事實上他們是往往利用了不正當的手段來對付生活，他們是毫不超脫的，毋寧是不體面的。視貧窮如園中之花而像聖人一樣耕植它吧！不要找新的花樣，無論是新的朋友或新的衣服，來麻煩你自己。找舊的，回到那裡去。萬物不變，是我們在變。你的衣服可以賣掉，但要保留你的思想。

http://..com/question/9750123.html?si=1There" is no better than "Here"
Many people believe that they will be happy once they arrive at some specific goal they set for themselves. However, more often than not, once you arrive " there" you will still feel dissatisfied, and move your " there" vision to yet another point in the future. By always chasing after another "there," you are never really appreciating what you already have right "here." It is important for human beings to keep soberminded about the age-old drive to look beyond the place where you now stand. On one hand, your life is enhanced by your dreams and aspirations. On the other hand, these drives can pull you farther and farther from your enjoyment of your life right now. By learning the lessons of gratitude and abundance, you can bring yourself closer to fulfilling the challenge of living in the present.
Gratitude To be grateful means you are thankful for and appreciative of what you have and where you are on your path right now. Gratitude fills your heart with the joyful feeling and allows you to fully appreciate everything that arises on your path. As you strive to keep your focus on the present moment, you can experience the full wonder of "here."
There are many ways to cultivate gratitude. Here are just a few suggestions you may wish to try:
1. Imagine what your life would be like if you lost all that you had. This will most surely remind you of how much you do appreciate it.
2. Make a list each day of all that you are grateful for, so that you can stay conscious daily of your blessings. Do this especially when you are feeling as though you have nothing to feel grateful for. Or spend a few minutes before you go to sleep giving thanks for all that you have.
3. Spend time offering assistance to those who are less fortunate than you, so that you may gain perspective.
However you choose to learn gratitude is irrelevant. What really matters is that you create a space in your consciousness for appreciation for all that you have right now, so that you may live more joyously in your present moment.
Abundance One of the most common human fears is scarcity. Many people are afraid of not having enough of what they need or want, and so they are always striving to get to a point when they would finally have enough.
Alan and Linda always dreamed of living "the good life." Both from poor working-class families, they married young and set out to fulfill their mutual goal of becoming wealthy. They both worked very hard for years, amassing a small fortune, so they could move from their two-bedroom home to a palatial seven-bedroom home in the most upscale neighborhood. They focused their energies on accumulating all the things they believed signified abundance: membership in the local exclusive country club, luxury cars, designer clothing, and high-class society friends. No matter how much they accumulated, however, it never seemed to be enough. They were unable to erase the deep fear of scarcity both had acquired in childhood. They needed to learn the lesson of abundance. Then the stock market crashed in 1987, and Alan and Linda lost a considerable amount of money. A bizarre but costly lawsuit depleted another huge portion of their savings. One thing led to another, and they found themselves in a financial disaster. Assets needed to be sold, and eventually they lost the country club membership, the cars, and the house. It took several years and much hard work for Alan and Linda to land on their feet, and though they now live a life far from extravagant, they have taken stock of their lives and feel quite blessed. Only now, as they assess what they have left -- a solid, loving marriage, their health, a dependable income, and good friends -- do they realize that true abundance comes not from amassing, but rather from appreciating.
Scarcity consciousness arises as a result of the "hole-in-the-soul syndrome." This is when we attempt to fill the gaps in our inner lives with things from the outside world. But like puzzle pieces, you can't fit something in where it does not naturally belong. No amount of external objects, affection, love, or attention can ever fill an inner void. We already have enough, so we should revel in our own interior abundance.
彼岸無盡頭，知足才常樂
許多人都相信，一旦他們達到了自己所設定的某個特定目標，他們就會開心、快樂。然而事實往往是，當你到達彼岸時，你還是不知足、不滿意，而且又有了新的彼岸--新的幻想和憧憬。由於你總是疲於追逐一個又一個的彼岸，你從未真正欣賞、珍惜你已經擁有的一切。不安於現狀的慾望人皆有之，由來已久，但重要的是要對它保持清醒的頭腦。一方面，你的生活因為夢想和渴望而更加精彩。另一方面，這些慾望又使你越來越不懂得珍惜和享受現在擁有的生活。假如你能懂得感恩，學會知足，你就接近實現生活在現實中提出的要求。
感恩之心感恩是指你感激、珍惜自己當前所擁有的一切以及所處的人生境遇。心存感恩，你的心靈就充滿愉悅，你就能真正領會人生路上的種種體驗。如果你努力把眼光鎖定在此時此刻，你就能感受它的美妙之處。
感恩之心需要經常加強。許多方法可以培育感恩之心，你不妨試試以下幾種：
1．設想如果你失去了你現在所擁有的一切，你的生活將會怎麼樣。它肯定會使你回想起原來你是多麼喜歡和珍視這一切。
2．每天都列出那些值得你感激的事物，那樣你就能時時刻刻意識到自己的幸運。每天都要這么做，尤其是當你覺得好像沒有什麼可感激的時候。另外你也可以每天臨睡前花幾分鍾感恩自己所擁有的一切。
3．花時間幫助那些沒有你那麼幸運的人，這樣你也許會對生活有正確的認識。
其實，你選擇何種方法去學會感恩，這無關緊要，真正重要的是你應該有意識地努力去欣賞和珍視你現在所擁有的一切，這樣你就可以更快樂地享受你目前的生活。
知足常樂貧窮是人類最普遍的恐懼之一。許多人擔心自己的所需所求不夠，所以他們總是孜孜以求有朝一日能心滿意足，別無他求。
艾倫和琳達都來自貧苦的工人家庭，都一直夢想著過上"好日子"。他們早早地成了家，然後就開始為他們共同的致富目標奮斗。他們拚命工作了好幾年，終於積攢了一筆錢，從兩居室搬到了一套坐落在最高檔街區的富麗堂皇的七居室大房子。此後，他們費盡心思去積聚那些他們認為是代表富足的東西：當地惟一的一家鄉村俱樂部的會員資格、豪華汽車、名牌服裝，以及上流社會的朋友。但是，不論他們積聚了多少，似乎永遠難以滿足。他們倆誰都無法消除小時侯對貧窮的刻骨銘心的恐懼。其實，他們就需要學會知足常樂這一課。1987年，股市遭受重創，艾倫和琳達損失慘重。禍不單行，一場莫名其妙的昂貴的官司又耗盡了他們的一大筆積蓄，這一切使他們陷入了經濟困境。他們不得不變賣家產，最後他們丟掉了鄉村俱樂部的會員資格，失去了汽車和房子。艾倫和琳達努力奮鬥了好幾年才從困境中走出來。現在他們的生活毫不奢華，但是他們是自己生活的主宰，幸福而又知足。只有在這時，他們才掂量著那些尚未失去的東西，如穩固相愛的婚姻、健康的身體、可靠的收入、真正的朋友等等，他們終於認識到，真正的富足不是來自財富的積聚，而是來自對所擁有的一切的珍視。
貧窮感可以歸因於"精神空虛綜合症"，即我們試圖用身外之物來填補內心的空缺。但是，就像拼圖游戲一樣，你不能把本來不屬於那個地方的東西硬塞進去。任何身外之物、情感、關愛和關注都無法填補內心的空虛。我們擁有的已經足夠，因此我們應該滿足於內心世界的豐富與充實。

2..環境保護
Once man did not have to think about the protection of his environment. There were few people on the earth, and natural resources seemed to be unlimited.Today things are different. The world has become too crowded. We are using up our natural resources,and polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals. If we continue to do this, human life on earth will not survive. We realize that if too many fish are taken from the sea, there will soon be none left. Yet,with modern fishing methods, more and more fish are caught.We know that if too many trees are cut down, forests will disappear. Yet, we continue to use powerful machines to cut down more and more trees. We see that if rivers are polluted with waste procts, we will die. Yet, waste procts are still put into rivers.We know that if the population continues to rise at the present rate, in a few years, there wont be enough food.What can we do to solve these problems?If we eat more vegetables and less meat, there will be more food available. Land for crops feeds five times more people than land where animals are kept.Our natural resources will last longer if we learn to recyciethem. The world population will not rise so quickly if people use modern methods of birth control.Finally, if we ecate people to think about the problems we shall have a better and cleaner planet in the future. 過去，人們不必擔心保護環境的問題。 因為那時地球上人口稀少，自然資源似乎取之不盡。如今，一切都改變了。世界變得擁擠異常。我們正在耗盡我們的自然資源，有毒化學製品的使用也正污染著環境。如果我們繼續這樣下去，地球上的生命將不復存在。我們都知道如果從海里捕捉太多的魚，海里就不會再有魚了。但是，現代化的捕魚技術使得捕魚量越來越大。我們都知道如果砍伐太多的樹木，森林就會消失。但是，我們仍舊使用強大的機械砍伐越來越多的樹木。我們都知道如果河水被廢棄物污染的話，我們只有死路一條。但是廢棄物仍然源源不斷地進入河裡我們知道，人口繼續照現在這個速度增長的話，不出幾年，就會發生食物短缺。我們該如何解決這些問題呢?如果我們多吃蔬菜，少吃肉類的話，我們就會有更多的食物。因為同樣大小的土地如果種莊稼的話會比養殖動物多養活五倍多的人。如果我們學會再利用的話，自然資源就能持續更久 如果人們使用現代化的生育控制方法，世界人口就不會增長如此迅猛。最後，如果我們能夠教育人們都意識到這些問題的話，未來我們就會有一個更好、更潔凈的星球。
3.春節
We call the Chinese New Year the Spring Festival. There's a name for each Chinese year. We may call it the year of the sheep, the year of the monkey or the year of the pig, etc. This year is the year of the sheep. Before New Year's Day, people are busy shopping and cleaning their houses. On New Year's Eve, there is a big family dinner. After dinner, all the family stay up until midnight,to welcome the New Year. On the first day of the New Year, people put on new clothes and visit their friends. They say"Happy New Year!" to each other. People usually have a good time ring the festival.
我們稱中國的新年為春節。每一年都有自己的名字。我們可能叫它羊年，猴年，或者豬年等等。今年是羊年。在過年之前，人們忙著購物和打掃房間。在除夕夜，有一個盛大的家庭聚餐。飯後，人們一直熬夜到半夜來迎接新一年。在大年初一，人們換上新衣服去拜訪朋友。他們互相祝福「新年快樂」。人們通常在春節過得很愉快。

http://..com/question/9750123.html?si=1There" is no better than "Here"
Many people believe that they will be happy once they arrive at some specific goal they set for themselves. However, more often than not, once you arrive " there" you will still feel dissatisfied, and move your " there" vision to yet another point in the future. By always chasing after another "there," you are never really appreciating what you already have right "here." It is important for human beings to keep soberminded about the age-old drive to look beyond the place where you now stand. On one hand, your life is enhanced by your dreams and aspirations. On the other hand, these drives can pull you farther and farther from your enjoyment of your life right now. By learning the lessons of gratitude and abundance, you can bring yourself closer to fulfilling the challenge of living in the present.
Gratitude To be grateful means you are thankful for and appreciative of what you have and where you are on your path right now. Gratitude fills your heart with the joyful feeling and allows you to fully appreciate everything that arises on your path. As you strive to keep your focus on the present moment, you can experience the full wonder of "here."
There are many ways to cultivate gratitude. Here are just a few suggestions you may wish to try:
1. Imagine what your life would be like if you lost all that you had. This will most surely remind you of how much you do appreciate it.
2. Make a list each day of all that you are grateful for, so that you can stay conscious daily of your blessings. Do this especially when you are feeling as though you have nothing to feel grateful for. Or spend a few minutes before you go to sleep giving thanks for all that you have.
3. Spend time offering assistance to those who are less fortunate than you, so that you may gain perspective.
However you choose to learn gratitude is irrelevant. What really matters is that you create a space in your consciousness for appreciation for all that you have right now, so that you may live more joyously in your present moment.
Abundance One of the most common human fears is scarcity. Many people are afraid of not having enough of what they need or want, and so they are always striving to get to a point when they would finally have enough.
Alan and Linda always dreamed of living "the good life." Both from poor working-class families, they married young and set out to fulfill their mutual goal of becoming wealthy. They both worked very hard for years, amassing a small fortune, so they could move from their two-bedroom home to a palatial seven-bedroom home in the most upscale neighborhood. They focused their energies on accumulating all the things they believed signified abundance: membership in the local exclusive country club, luxury cars, designer clothing, and high-class society friends. No matter how much they accumulated, however, it never seemed to be enough. They were unable to erase the deep fear of scarcity both had acquired in childhood. They needed to learn the lesson of abundance. Then the stock market crashed in 1987, and Alan and Linda lost a considerable amount of money. A bizarre but costly lawsuit depleted another huge portion of their savings. One thing led to another, and they found themselves in a financial disaster. Assets needed to be sold, and eventually they lost the country club membership, the cars, and the house. It took several years and much hard work for Alan and Linda to land on their feet, and though they now live a life far from extravagant, they have taken stock of their lives and feel quite blessed. Only now, as they assess what they have left -- a solid, loving marriage, their health, a dependable income, and good friends -- do they realize that true abundance comes not from amassing, but rather from appreciating.
Scarcity consciousness arises as a result of the "hole-in-the-soul syndrome." This is when we attempt to fill the gaps in our inner lives with things from the outside world. But like puzzle pieces, you can't fit something in where it does not naturally belong. No amount of external objects, affection, love, or attention can ever fill an inner void. We already have enough, so we should revel in our own interior abundance.
彼岸無盡頭，知足才常樂
許多人都相信，一旦他們達到了自己所設定的某個特定目標，他們就會開心、快樂。然而事實往往是，當你到達彼岸時，你還是不知足、不滿意，而且又有了新的彼岸--新的幻想和憧憬。由於你總是疲於追逐一個又一個的彼岸，你從未真正欣賞、珍惜你已經擁有的一切。不安於現狀的慾望人皆有之，由來已久，但重要的是要對它保持清醒的頭腦。一方面，你的生活因為夢想和渴望而更加精彩。另一方面，這些慾望又使你越來越不懂得珍惜和享受現在擁有的生活。假如你能懂得感恩，學會知足，你就接近實現生活在現實中提出的要求。
感恩之心感恩是指你感激、珍惜自己當前所擁有的一切以及所處的人生境遇。心存感恩，你的心靈就充滿愉悅，你就能真正領會人生路上的種種體驗。如果你努力把眼光鎖定在此時此刻，你就能感受它的美妙之處。
感恩之心需要經常加強。許多方法可以培育感恩之心，你不妨試試以下幾種：
1．設想如果你失去了你現在所擁有的一切，你的生活將會怎麼樣。它肯定會使你回想起原來你是多麼喜歡和珍視這一切。
2．每天都列出那些值得你感激的事物，那樣你就能時時刻刻意識到自己的幸運。每天都要這么做，尤其是當你覺得好像沒有什麼可感激的時候。另外你也可以每天臨睡前花幾分鍾感恩自己所擁有的一切。
3．花時間幫助那些沒有你那麼幸運的人，這樣你也許會對生活有正確的認識。
其實，你選擇何種方法去學會感恩，這無關緊要，真正重要的是你應該有意識地努力去欣賞和珍視你現在所擁有的一切，這樣你就可以更快樂地享受你目前的生活。
知足常樂貧窮是人類最普遍的恐懼之一。許多人擔心自己的所需所求不夠，所以他們總是孜孜以求有朝一日能心滿意足，別無他求。
艾倫和琳達都來自貧苦的工人家庭，都一直夢想著過上"好日子"。他們早早地成了家，然後就開始為他們共同的致富目標奮斗。他們拚命工作了好幾年，終於積攢了一筆錢，從兩居室搬到了一套坐落在最高檔街區的富麗堂皇的七居室大房子。此後，他們費盡心思去積聚那些他們認為是代表富足的東西：當地惟一的一家鄉村俱樂部的會員資格、豪華汽車、名牌服裝，以及上流社會的朋友。但是，不論他們積聚了多少，似乎永遠難以滿足。他們倆誰都無法消除小時侯對貧窮的刻骨銘心的恐懼。其實，他們就需要學會知足常樂這一課。1987年，股市遭受重創，艾倫和琳達損失慘重。禍不單行，一場莫名其妙的昂貴的官司又耗盡了他們的一大筆積蓄，這一切使他們陷入了經濟困境。他們不得不變賣家產，最後他們丟掉了鄉村俱樂部的會員資格，失去了汽車和房子。艾倫和琳達努力奮鬥了好幾年才從困境中走出來。現在他們的生活毫不奢華，但是他們是自己生活的主宰，幸福而又知足。只有在這時，他們才掂量著那些尚未失去的東西，如穩固相愛的婚姻、健康的身體、可靠的收入、真正的朋友等等，他們終於認識到，真正的富足不是來自財富的積聚，而是來自對所擁有的一切的珍視。
貧窮感可以歸因於"精神空虛綜合症"，即我們試圖用身外之物來填補內心的空缺。但是，就像拼圖游戲一樣，你不能把本來不屬於那個地方的東西硬塞進去。任何身外之物、情感、關愛和關注都無法填補內心的空虛。我們擁有的已經足夠，因此我們應該滿足於內心世界的豐富與充實。

英語美文 信念的力量
信心之所以有著不可思議的強大力量,因為它們對我們的生命就像方向舵對輪船一樣,控制著我們的方向和命運。我們並不總是像自己表白的那樣去生活,而是一直都生活在我們的信念里。簡單地說,如果我相信我是一個失敗者,我就註定會是一個失敗者。如果我相信我會成功,我就會成功。
Born in 1758, Horatio nelson, the son of a pastor, was a small, frail1 child who loved sailing. As a young teenager he joined the British Navy and, while journeying to the East Indies, caught a fever that seriously damaged his health. But he never allowed this to hold him back. At age 18, he was appointed a lieutenant2 in the Royal Navy and by the year 1802 was made commander-in-chief.
Two years later, at the battle of Trafalgar, Nelson defeated the combined3 French and Spanish fleets4. This was the greatest naval victory in British history and left British in control of the seas for the rest of the 1800's. Unfortunately, Nelson was mortally injured but lived long enough to know that his fleet had won the battle. His last words were, "Thank God I have done my ty."
Nelson was a man of fearless courage and devotion. He believed in his country, in his cause, and in himself. He once said, "I am of the opinion5 that the boldest measures are the safest." Nelson was a man greatly admired by others who said about him, "His frail body housed6 a great spirit."
One person with a belief is equal to a force of 99 who only have interest.
Beliefs are remarkably powerful in that they are to our lives what a rudder7 is to a ship. That is, they control the direction and destiny of our lives. While we don't always live the life we profess8, we always live the life we believe. Simply put, if I believe I am a failure, I will set myself up to fail. If I believe I am a successful person, I will succeed, and so on.
One very successful woman, a well-known entertainer, didn't have much going for her. She would never win a beauty contest and at age 38 was living on welfare. After reading Claude Briston's The Magic of Believing and beginning to believe in herself, her life took a dramatic turn. One gift she had was the ability to make people laugh. Once she believed this, she didn't allow what she didn't have to stop her using what she did have.
Jimmie Durante was another entertainer who wouldn't have made a fortune with his looks. But he capitalized on9 his weakness and turned it into one of his great strengths -- what he did have -- and put these to good use because he believed he could.

一個老人在高速行駛的火車上，不小心把剛買的新鞋從窗口掉了一隻，周圍的人倍感惋惜，不料老人立即把第二隻鞋也從窗口扔了下去。這舉動更讓人大吃一驚。老人解釋說：「這一隻鞋無論多麼昂貴，對我而言已經沒有用了，如果有誰能撿到一雙鞋子，說不定他還能穿呢！」

他們繼續走下去，後來發現了一片綠洲，他們於是決定洗個澡。先前被打的那個人這時不小心陷入了一個泥潭裡面，差點被淹死了，幸運的是他的朋友把他給救了出來。

寫字的那個人回答說：「當我們被別人傷害了之後，我們應該把它寫在沙子上，那樣，寬容的風就很快就會將其抹去，但當我們受到別人的幫助之後，我們必須將它刻在石頭上，那樣，風就不會輕易把它磨滅。」

8. 初二的英語美文要8篇
1.我們為什麼要學英語
There are four key points to study English: listening, speaking, reading and writing.
Firstly, we should be brave to talk with others in English. By doing this, we can improve our talking and listening skill.
Secondly, we should try to listen to all kinds of English programmes as much as possible. In this way, we can graally improve our pronunciation.
Thirdly, we should often read English books. When we come across a new word. We should guess its meaning through the contest first. Then look it up in the dictionary to have a check. I thin,, it is a good way of reading.
Fourthly, we should practice our writing skills. Whenever we have any idea, we should get the pen and write it down at once. It is very important to avoid writing in Chinese way and using the Chinese grammar.
As long as we listen, speak, read and write more, we are sure to make remarkable progress!
有四個重點學習英語聽、說、讀、寫能力。
首先,我們應該勇敢地用英語與人交談。這樣做的話,我們可以改善我們的談話和聽力技巧。
其次,我們應該試著去傾聽各式各樣的英語課程當做很多當做可能的。以這方式,我們能夠逐步改善發音。
第三,我們應該經常讀英語書。當我們遇到生詞。我們應該猜出它的意思整場比賽第一名。然後查字典查一下。我認為,這是一個很好的方式,閱讀。
第四,我們應該練習寫作技巧。當我們有什麼想法,我們應該把鋼筆寫下來。這是非常重要的,在中國的方式來避免寫作和使用漢語的語法。
只要我們聽、說、讀、寫的更多,我們肯定會取得顯著的進步!
2.時間的價值(The Value of Time)
As a popular saying goes, "Time is money. "In fact, time is more precious than money. When money is spent, you can earn it back if you want to. However, when time is gone, it will never come back. As the pace of modern life continues to accelerate,the time at our disposal is quite limited. But there are a lot of things to be done in our lives. We should make full use of our time to fulfil what is useful to us. For instance, as students we should devote most of our time to our academic studies. In this way we can acquire new knowledge and skill necessary for our future carrier.
In my opinion, wasting time means wasting our valuable life. But many of us don't realize this. They think time is inexhaustible. I'm not in favor of such of a view. Hence, my conclusion is that we should never put off what can be today until tomorrow。
常言道:「時間就是金錢。「事實上,時間比金錢更珍貴。當花了錢,你可以賺回來,如果你想去的地方。然而,時間流逝,再也不會回來了。隨著現代生活的節奏不斷加快,在我們的處理是非常有限的。但是有很多事情要做。我們應該充分利用我們的時間去完成什麼是對我們有用。例如,作為學生,我們應該花大部分的時間來我們的學術研究。用這種方式我們能夠獲得新知識和技能的必要的未來的載體。
在我看來,浪費時間就是浪費寶貴的生命。但是,我們中的很多人沒有認識到這一點。他們認為時間是無窮無盡的。我不贊成這樣一個觀點。因此,我的結論是,我們要不要把今天能到明天。
3. MY LOVE我的愛
Mamma you gave life to me，Turned a babysintosa man，And mamma all you had to offer Was a promise of a lifetime of love,Now I know there is no other
love like a Mothers.Love for her child,I know that love so complete someday must leave.Must say goodbye,Goodbyes the saddest word,I』ll ever hear.Goodbyes the last time I will hold you near,Someday you』ll say that word and I will cry,It』ll break my heart to hear you say Goodbye.

9. 求三篇美文（英文），帶翻譯，適合初一學生閱讀
在人生路途之上，我們的誠實在不時地接受著考驗。公理自在人心。當誠實遭遇利益沖突，而又和親情聯系時，一個人還能保持誠實嗎？在本文中，兒子在父親指導的球隊參加比賽時作計時員，他能否公平公正地完成自己任務呢？
As a high school coach, I did all I could to help my boys win their games. I rooted as hard for victory as they did.
A dramatic incident, however, following a game in which I officiated as a referee, changed my perspective on victories and defeats. I was refereeing a league championship basketball game in New Rochelle, New York, between New Rochelle and Yonkers High.
New Rochelle was coached by Dan O'Brien, Yonkers by Les Beck. The gym was crowded to capacity, and the volume of noise made it impossible to hear. The game was well played and closely contested. Yonkers was leading by one point as I glanced at the clock and discovered there were but 30 seconds left to play.
Yonkers, in possession of the ball, passed off — shot — missed. New Rochelle recovered — pushed the ball up court — shot. The ball rolled tantalizingly around the rim and off. The fans shrieked.
New Rochelle, the home team, recovered the ball, and tapped it in for what looked like victory. The tumult was deafening. I glanced at the clock and saw that the game was over. I hadn't heard the final buzzer because of the noise. I checked with the other official, but he could not help me.
Still seeking help in this bedlam, I approached the timekeeper, a young man of 17 or so. He said, "Mr. Covino, the buzzer went off as the ball rolled off the rim, before the final tap-in was made."
I was in the unenviable position of having to tell Coach O'Brien the sad news. "Dan," I said, "time ran out before the final basket was tapped in. Yonkers won the game."
His face clouded over. The young timekeeper came up. He said, "I'm sorry, Dad. The time ran out before the final basket."
Suddenly, like the sun coming out from behind a cloud, Coach O'Brien's face lit up. He said, "That's okay, Joe. You did what you had to do. I'm proud of you."
Turning to me, he said, "Al, I want you to meet my son, Joe."
The two of them then walked off the court together, the coach's arm around his son's shoulder.
精美譯文：
作為一名高中籃球教練，我竭盡全力體幫我的學生在比賽中取得勝利。我全力支持他們在比賽中取勝，他們也刻苦訓練。
然而，在一場我所裁判的比賽之後發生了一件富有戲劇性的偶然事件。這件事改變了我對勝敗的看法。那是一次藍球冠軍聯賽，當時，我在紐約州的新羅謝爾市給新羅謝爾和揚克斯兩個隊之間的比賽作裁判。
新羅謝爾隊的教練是丹·奧布賴恩，而揚克斯隊的教練是萊斯·貝克。體育館內座無虛席，呼聲震天。比賽順利進行，兩隊比分接近，揚克斯隊僅以一分的優勢領先。我看了一下時鍾，距離比賽結束僅剩三十秒。
揚克斯隊控球在手，傳球、投籃，但是沒投中。新羅謝爾隊重新控球，將球向場地的另一個方向傳球，然後投籃。觀眾急切地盯著球，球沿著籃球筐邊急速旋轉，最終又落了下來。球迷們尖聲喊叫。
主隊新羅謝爾隊重新把球奪過來，把球撥進籃筐，似乎已經贏得了比賽的勝利。人群的呼喊聲震耳欲聾。我看了一下時鍾，已經過了比賽結束時間。由於聲音太大，我沒有聽到終場信號聲。我向另外一名工作人員核對時間，但是他說不清楚。
我仍然在混亂中求助，我走近計時員——一個大約17歲的年輕人。他告訴我：「科維諾先生，當球滾出籃筐時，終場信號發出了，在最後球又被撥進籃筐之前。」
「丹，在最後那個球被撥進籃筐之前，時間已經到了。」我無可奈何地告訴奧布賴恩教練，「揚克斯隊贏了。」
他臉色陰沉了下來。那個年輕的計時員走上前，說：「爸爸，對不起。在最後一個球投中之前時間就已經到了。」
突然間，奧布賴恩教練的臉色就像太陽撥開了烏雲，轉晴了，他說：「沒關系，喬。你做了你應該做的，我為你感到驕傲。」
他把臉轉向我，說："埃爾，我介紹一下我的兒子，喬。"
奧布賴恩教練把胳膊搭在兒子的肩膀上，兩個人一起離開了球場。

10. 求三篇40詞英文小短文（初二）
Today I had an internship at the cancerology department of my faculty. Of all the patients I ever encountered ring my internships, I were the most affected by patients suffering from cancer and who had almost no hope of returning back to a normal life. This led me to ponder on the question of how our nutrition and lifestyle has changed drastically over the centuries and how cancer can be avoided. Today you have more fatty, sugary foods, animal meats doped with hormones and steroids and cultivations sprayed with insecticides and pesticides. All these contribute to the formation of cancers. So how to decrease the risks of cancer?
1. Limit the consumption of fine sugars
By this, I mean sugars which are powdery or in small cubes which are use to make cakes and other delicacies. So no sugar in your Coffee or tea as from now. Replace white bread with wholewheat breads. Stop drinking sodas. These food procts have a high glycemic index: they contain a lot of sugar which are digested and absorbed very quickly by the human body. Cancerous cells need a lot of glucose to develop rapidly. A diet with lots of sugars can favorize the development of tumors in your body. Moreover, your pancreas, the organ which proces insulin in your body, must increase its turnover of insulin to break down surplus sugar. This increase of insulin, according to the chief of cancerology department, stimulates the growth and diffusion of cancerous cells. It is imperative then to limit the consumption of fine sugars.
2. Avoid hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils
You can find them in some margarines and prepared dishes. They have inflammatory properties and prepare the ground for the formation of cancerous tissues. These are also trans fat procts. Trans fats lowers the amount of HDL or good cholesterol.
3. Opt for fresh farmers foods
Fresh farmers foods have the advantage of having been cultivated the traditional way. The fruits and vegetables are not contaminated by pesticides and insecticides and the meats are not loaded with steroids and hormones. But beware though. Some farmers do resort to orthodox and unhealthy methods to boost their proctions.
4. Green Tea
Green tea is rich in polyphenols and seems to block the formation of tumors by preventing blood vessels of forming everywhere. Green tea also seem to prevent the formation of leukemia, cancers of the prostate, breasts, kidneys, skins and mouth.
5. Soja
Soja contains isoflavines which have the property of recing overstimulation of the body by oestrogens. It is used in some treatments of cancer like breasts cancer.
6. Curcuma
Curcuma have anti-inflammatory properties and thus may prevent proliferation of some tumors, namely in the colon, liver or stomach and breasts.
7. Maintain a correct weight
Maintain your BMI (Body Mass Index) in the healthy normal range of 18.5 to 24,9. Overweight and obesity increase the risks of developing cancer, even more if you have a lot of fatty tissues around your waists. An increase in weight raises the probability of having cancer in your colon and rectum, oesophagus, pancreas, kidneys and breasts even after menopause.
8. Do some regular physical activities
The famous 30 minutes daily walk must no longer remains as idle talks. You must make sure you have a daily time slice to do some jogging, walking or other physical activities. Doing some kind of sports may have some benefits against certain types of cancer such as lung and pancreatic cancers.
