英语作文范文(一)
1.My Career Plan【我一生的计划】
During my high school years, I have found chemistry, physics, and mathematics interesting. Actually, I am interested in many subjects such as biology, history, geography, Chinese, and English. But somehow I cannot remember the historical events or the facts about geography in detail. I cannot remember biological terms well, either. On the other hand, chemistry, physics, and mathematics are easy for me because they seem logical to me. After considering my interests and talents I feel that science or engineering might be the best choice for my career. I would like to study science or engineering in college. After graduation from college I hope to go for higher education overseas. Eventually I would like to return to school to teach. This is my career plan.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. The Humanities【人文科学】
Since I was an elementary school student, I have been doing a great deal of reading and writing. I like philosophy, politics, and science as well as fairy tales. I study history carefully, especially the history about our own people and country. It is always enjoyable to sit on the grass in an open sir place reading my books. It is quite natural and clear to me that my major in college will be one of the humanities. I imagine that a career in teaching humanities will be challenging and attractive. One day when I hold conversations with young students in classroom or any place, we will discuss a philosophy of life, ways of thinking, the idea of democracy, ideas of right and wrong, and ideas of beauty.

3. What you want to be when you grow up【你长大以后要做什么?】
This question and another similar question, 'Have you decided what you will do after you finish school? , were among the most common questions people often asked me when I was a small child and then a student in school. Choosing the right career is very important. For this reason we should try to find out what our talents and interests are and how we can use them. There are many careers open to each of us. Many persons find their place in government service, and many others may de interested in going into the business world. Teaching, newspaper work, medicine, engineering, science------ these and many other fields offer fascinating careers to persons with talent and training.

4. The Working Man【做事的人】
In a complex society there are many jobs which must be done to keep the society running smoothly. There must be many kinds of factory workers, salesmen, mechanics, policemen, firemen, miners, secretaries, bookkeepers, bus drivers and many other workers. All these people are important to the comfort and safety of our everyday lives.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5.City and Country Life【都市生活与乡村生活】
Life in the city is very different from life in the villages and on the farms. People in large cities are much more careful to respect the privacy of the individual. Sometimes this feeling seems to be one of indifference, but it is a convention of city life to curb one's curiosity about the personal affairs of strangers. Villagers and farmers are likely to show a great deal of interest in all their neighbors. Opportunities for bright young people are greater in the cities and there has been a steady stream of hopeful jobseekers from the villages and farms to the large metropolitan areas.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6.On Bravery【论勇敢】
We often do not take much notice of the people around us who on public service jobs. These people are train station workers, airline stewardess, firemen, policemen, bus drivers, taxi drivers and soldiers. Only during some accident these people are then the first ones to come to our aid and sometimes at the risk of their own lives. Recently, I saw a big fire in a ten-story apartment house where firemen worked under great danger. Luckily in this case no one was hurt. Each of us have within us the essence of bravery available on our everyday job, or just going to school, or at home. Soldiers are called to show bravery in defending their country from aggression. Sometimes during a national disaster such as an earthquake or typhoon soldiers are called to help show bravery and strength.
Taking Risks(谈冒险)
Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Some people take the view that sometimes in life we have to take chances in order to make progress. I admire such people. It certainly takes guts to take risks. Maybe it's because of my upbringing, but I am the type who usually plays it safe.
People like me prefer the saying, "A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush." Conservative as it may be, it keeps me out of trouble. I must confess, however, that leading such a moderate life may, at times, be boring. Admittedly, my life is not half as colorful or exciting as other people's but at least it gives me a sense of security.
不入虎穴,焉得虎子。有些人认为我们在一生之中,有时候必须冒点险以求进步。我佩服这些人。冒险的确须有勇气才行。也许是由于我的成长背景,我是属于那种稳扎稳打型的人。
像我这样的人喜欢这句格言:「一鸟在手胜于两鸟在林」。也许这种说法有些保守,但是那可使我免除麻烦。但我必须承认的是,过如此平凡的生活,有时候可能很无聊。无可讳言地,我的生活不及其它人一半的多采多姿和刺激,但是至少它使我有安全感。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7.On Cooperation【谈合作】
Families specialize in their tasks by dividing the work among the different members according to what they are best qualified to do. For example, mothers cook, children wash dishes and make beds, fathers mow the grass and paint the house. By doing the same thing again and again, and by close cooperation, a family is able to work faster and get more work done than if just one do many kinds of tasks. Similarly, it is 'cooperation' that make our complicated modern society work.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8.On Courtesy【谈礼节】
If you are courteous to other people, you have good manners. Here are some ways to be courteous. Shake hands when you meet someone new. Let other people have a turn when using public facilities. If you need help or want some thing, ask politely. Be quiet when someone is sleeping. Share your tools with your friends when you are not using them. If you accidentally hurt someone, be sure to apologize. If you know how and when to say 'How do you do?’, 'Thank you', ‘please’, and ‘I'm sorry’, your everyday life will be much happier.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. On Culture【谈文化】
The way of life that a group of people builds up over a long period of time becomes the people's culture. Culture includes the people's values and beliefs as well as their technical competency. Some aspects of culture are learned in a formal setting, such as a school, while other aspects are learned informally in the process of day-to-day living. A culture is always changing. Changes in s culture often come about by borrowing form another culture and by invention. To enrich the culture of our nation, we are constantly adapting new inventions and new ideas into our way of life.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10.On Death【论死亡】
According to cycle of life all things must die. And when some one dies, those who love him weep, and mourn his death. But when we weep at the death of someone we love, or at the realization that death will soon take him away, aren't we weeping at our own loss? Do we pity him because he is going to die, or do you feel sorry for yourself because you are going to lose him?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
11.Pursuing Happiness【追求快乐】
Abraham Lincoln once said, ‘Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.’ These few words express what some of us take years or even a lifetime to learn, while some of us never realize our own happiness lies within ourselves. Most people are so busy driven to pursue success, power and wealth that they mistake these materialistic values for happiness. Did you ever watch small children at play and think how happy they are?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12. On Democracy【论民主】
The word ‘democracy’ comes from two Greek words that mean ‘people’ and ‘rule.’ Democracy is a kind of government which lets people rule themselves. They rule themselves by choosing their rulers and their lawmakers. Abraham Lincoln told clearly what democracy means in his famous Getty**urg Address. He called ‘government of the people, by the people, and for the people.’
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
13.Democracy in Everyday Life【谈平日的民主】
Boys and girls can practice the ideas of Democracy in their everyday lives. In clubs and classes they can elect their officers. They can learn to choose leaders wisely instead of just voting for their personal friends. They can practice listening to suggestions and considering them carefully, no matter who makes them. On the playground they can see that everyone has a fair chance, no matter how wealthy or poor his family may be. Boys and girls who practice democracy day by day will be better members of a democracy when they grow up to vote.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14.On Diligence【谈勤勉】
Chi-Chi is the most diligent student in our class. He is one of my friends. As a matter of fact, he gets along with everyone very well. He never spends time fooling around with his classmates. He might spend just five to ten minutes talking to you once in a long while, but he talks with enthusiasm and energy, and he likes to share his thinking and ideas with you. He is honest; he does not like to waste his time and energy in pretending. He never appears sleepy and tired in the classroom. He always hands in homework on time and also does well in his examinations, yet he has time practicing skiing and his rifle skill outdoors. I admire him. I hope I can be as diligent as he is; Chi-Chi is persistent, attentive, and energetic.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Diligence and Laziness勤勉与懒惰
In general, diligence is the motive power of success. As it is, there are so many people who have been successful in their careers owing to diligence. To take Dr. Sun Yat-sen for example, he had been busy running about for the democratic revolution of China for forty years, which in the long run gave birth to the Republic of China. Compared with diligence, laziness is just opposite to it. Ten to one, failure often results from laziness. It is not too much to say that laziness is the main factor of failure.
No doubt, it pays to be diligent, but it's wrong to work and work without taking a rest. Undoubtedly, we may take some time off after hard work. We must recognize that being lazy may do good to us once in a while. Can you imagine that we take a rest for the purpose of taking a longer walk? Of course, we cannot be too diligent. On the other hand, we also shouldn't ignore the timely laziness. Because of this, we can find that diligence with proper laziness may lead to a wholesome life.
一般而言,勤勉是成功的原动力。实际上,有许多人因为勤勉而事业成功。以孙中山先生为例,他曾经为中国七民主革命奔走四十年,而最后诞生了中华民国。较之勤勉,懒惰恰好与其相反。十之八九,失败时常起因于懒惰。懒惰是失败的主要因素说起来并不过份。
没错,勤勉是值得的,但是一味工作而没有休息是不对的。毫无疑问,辛苦工作后我们可以稍为休息。我们须承认偶尔懒散对我们是有益的。你能想象我们休息是为了赴更远的路吗?当然,我们愈勤勉愈好。另一方面,我们也不该忽视适时的懒散。因为如此,我们可知道适当懒散的勤勉可以导致裨益身心的人生。
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
15.On Human Rights【谈人权】
Promoting human rights is our national goal since Dr. Sun Yat-sen founded the Republic of China in 1911. The heart of the human rights is that men are born equal that they have certain rights which cannot be taken away, and that a government is established to protect these rights The equality to which it refers means an equality given all men – an equal claim to the rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. These rights cannot be given a away. These rights cannot be taken away by a government to protect these rights.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
16.On Punctuality【论守时】
One of the most important social graces in the American society is punctuality which means arriving on time. Most people consider it discourteous for a person to arrive at an appointment later than the time agreed on. Also, for most social engagements, especially those in a private home, it often causes inconvenience for a guest to come either earlier or later than the suggested hour.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
17.On Solitude【谈孤独】
I find it wholesome to be alone the greater part of the time. Being in company, even with the best, is soon wearisome and dissipating. I love to be alone. I have never found a companion that was as friendly as solitude. We are for the most part lonelier when we go abroad among men than when we stay in our homes. A man thinking or working is always alone. Solitude is not measured by the miles of space that intervene between a man and his fellow men. I have found that no exertion of the legs can bring two minds much nearer to one another.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
18. Education Today【今日的教育】
There is the feeing that education today should be practical as well as theoretical. For this reason, there are many courses which teach a student how to do things: how to make a dress, how to prepare a meal, how to use a computer or a calculator, how to draw plans for a house. Even in the more theoretical courses the teachers are constantly training their students to look for the practical applications of what they are learning.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
19. On Perseverance【谈毅力】
There are lots of examples about a person's Perseverance bringing about changes in history. Or new discoveries in cures for some human Diseases The well-known history of the Revolution in 1911 is a good example through a hard struggle with many failures for almost three decades, Dr. Sun Yat-sen with his people free themselves from a corruptive government of the last dynasty likewise if one wants to succeed in pursuing his serious goal in his life, perseverance is always the necessary characteristic he should learn to have.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
20.Studying Hard【用功】
In recent years more and more and more students have been attending colleges and universities, and more students have been continuing their education beyond the four years required to earn a bachelor's degree. Some professions require many years of specialized training. Especially in technical and scientific fields, so much new information is being added to our present knowledge that people in technical fields must study constantly to keep up with new developments.
