英语作文 篇1

  A big effort to make it a happy birthday

  生日意味着惊喜、聚会、兴奋过度的吹熄蛋糕上的蜡烛。生日也是对过去12个月中的失败——感受到的.或者是真实的——做出补偿的一种方法。

  I like birthdays. I like fuss, a grand gesture. X can't understand the fuss. It's about upbringing, I think: his parents unceremoniously hand him something – not even wrapped – at some point within a few months of the date. I'm fairly sure they don't know when it is. For me, birthdays mean surprises, parties, over-excited children blowing out candles on sponge cakes. Like pencil marks on the wall, they are the backbone around which you hang family rituals. Birthdays are also a way to make up for the failings – perceived or real – of the past 12 months.

  We didn't have the stomach for the last round. Absorbed in our own misery, X and I lumped the boys' birthday parties together, a swiftly expedited afternoon in a soft-play centre, a swiss roll with candles. It's hardly the stuff of misery memoirs, but it made me sad.

  Now a year has passed and birthday season is upon us, for the first time as a separated family. The boys' birthdays are close together and it feels like a milestone; I want to do it right. On top of my normal birthday fixation, I know the last weeks have been very hard for the children. I am scarcely mother of the year at the moment: I have made no headway in trying to find a new job, which scares me stupid, and am still bruised and shocked from the accident. My temper is short and I cry a lot. I've seen a naked look of worry in the eldest's eyes and felt powerless to make it go away.

  It's the youngest's birthday first. He takes after his father in this: he's not really bothered. He likes presents, of course, but doesn't have my – or his brother's –need to turn the day into a Busby Berkeley musical with a firework finale. Even so, I am determined to do it properly, to crank out the old family rituals and create new ones. He'll be at X's on the morning of his birthday, mine in the evening. We've said we'll have dinner together, agreed who should get him which present.

  In preparation for the big day, I bring out the stalwart Women's Weekly cake book and canvass his opinion. "So which cake would you like? A robot? A train? A spider? I don't think I'd be very good at the castle but I'll give it a try."

  He deflates my ambitions. "I just want a plain square one."

  "Are you sure? That's easy. With sweets on it?"

  He purses his lips in thought. "Ok." I think he's humouring me. I prod him further, and he chooses something for his birthday dinner, something he has every week. I rather admire how matter of fact he is. He's one of those children that asks for a calculator and a toothbrush for Christmas.

  While he's at his father's, I make a square cake. I sneak his age on to the top in Smarties, then make another for school, with chocolate fudge icing. I wrap his presents and write his card. It's very quiet in the empty house and I don't have to hide the cake in a cupboard, or issue dire "Don't come into my bedroom!" warnings. There's no sense of anticipation, and I don't like it. It's even worse in the morning, the first time in years I haven't been woken at five on a birthday morning by an over-excited child. I don't want to do this again, I think, as I take the foil wrapped cake up the road to school.

  The evening is better. I collect the boys from school and he opens his presents. Later, X comes round and builds some Lego while I make the requested boring dinner. We eat and then we light the candles, blow them out, take the obligatory pictures. The youngest is smiling his small, careful smile in them. It feels like a birthday, at last. We both need to be there, it turns out: after all, we both made him.

  We'll know for next time.

英语作文 篇2

  今天,可真是个令人紧张的日子啊。

  早上,姚煜辰宣布下午要来抽背英语课本中的一篇短文。大家一听,紧张得不得了。下课时,大家就马上看着英语短文,努力地背着。可是,我是越看越忘,越看越紧张,我心想:这下可得完蛋了。

  下午,走进教室,她先抽背了几个同学,可那几个同学都不会背。这时,我的心跳不由地加快速度,目不转睛地盯着姚雨辰。与此同时,姚雨辰也用她那双明亮的眼睛不停地教室里巡视。这时的.她仿佛就是一个可怕的魔鬼,在看哪个同学的肉更新鲜。我心里不停地念叨着:上天保佑,姚煜辰你可千万不要抽到我啊。这时,班长自告奋勇地站了起来,我看他是那么地紧张,脸涨得通红,说话也变得结巴了,刚背了第一句就忘了下一句,吭哧了一会儿又记起来了,很不顺畅,但总算过了关,这让姚煜辰那严肃的脸上露出了一丝阳光。终于,姚煜辰停止了搜寻,宣布暂停抽查。

  啊!这真是让人害怕的抽查,下次,我一定要赶紧背出。

英语作文 篇3

  All my life I had shared a bedroom with my siblings. First, I had to share a bedroom with my brother, because we lived in a two-bedroom apartment. A few years later my sister was born. By then, we have moved into a three-bedroom apartment, so my brother got his own room and I had to share with my little sister. Nine years later the last member of the family was born, another kid sister. Therefore, I ended up with two roommates. I wanted my own bedroom so bad that I was always complaining to my parents about how 15 years old girls should have their own bedroom. Finally, we all moved into a five-bedroom house, and I finally got my own room.

  If I close my eyes, I can still remember every detail of my bedroom. My bedroom was in the shape of a perfect little square. The door was in the left side of the room facing the window. Looking in the bedroom from the door, I see my bed placed against the wall in the right side of the room, with my mirror drawer facing the bed, leaving the window in between them. My closet was behind the opened door, which was very small. I did not like having too many things in my room; it was later that I added a desk to hold my television and radio. I placed the desk against the wall in front of the bed. My mother used to put light colored curtains on the window because I loved the way the sun shined through them and it added more meaning into the room. The smell of Sunflowers perfume always takes me back to my first bedroom. I used to wear that perfume all the time because it blended right in with the settings of the room. Every morning I used to open the window and immediately smelled the pear tree blocked my window with its leaves. Felling the breeze of the tree through my window was very relaxing. I used to spend a long time sitting by the window looking down at the neighbor’s kids running around. The serenity of my room used to inspire me to think about my future, hopes, and dreams.

  I only lasted a year enjoying my first bedroom ,then I sent it to my young sister. My fifteen-year-old sister is now enjoying my first bedroom. She is always telling me about how comfortable the bedroom is. Even though my sister has decorated the room very differently then when I had the room, I always find myself going back to my first bedroom and thinking back on all the good times I had in my first bedroom.

英语作文 篇4

  Children are their parents' most prized resource,particularly nowadays parents have only one child.Therefore,parents give everything to their kids,sometimes they are spoiling kids.

  However,things are not always like this."You never listen to me" is a complaint heard as often from children as parents.Good communication helps children and parents to develop confidence,feelings of self-worth,and good relationships with others.Try these tips:

  Teach children to listen...gently touch a child before you talk...say their name.

  Speak in a quiet voice...whisper sometimes so children have to listen...they like this.

  Look a child in the eyes so you can tell when they understand...bend or sit down...become the child's size.

  Practice listening and talking:Talk with your children about school and their friends.

  Respect children and use a courteous tone of voice.If we talk to our children as we are good friends,our youngsters may be more likely take us as confidants.

  Use door openers that invite children to say more about an incident or their feelings."I see," "Oh," "tell me more," "No kidding," "Really," "Mmmmhmmmmm," "Say that again,I want to be sure I understand you."

  Praise builds a child's confidence and reinforces communication.Unkind words tear children down and teach them that they just aren't good enough.

  Children are never too old to be told they are loved.Saying "I love you" is important.Writing it in a note provides the child with a reminder that he can hold on to.

  Give your undivided attention when your children want to talk to you.Don't read,watch TV,fall asleep or make yourself busy with other tasks when talking with kids.

  All in all,as parents,we should respect our kids and listen to them,talk to them as friends.We should alwasys be there to share with kids their joys and sorrows.

英语作文 篇6

  The traditional Chinese way of supporting and pushing the child to realise his full potential. Tiger moms demand perfect grades because they believe that their children can get them. They also believe that they know what is best for their children and therefore override all of their children's own desires and preferences.

  For them, the best way to protect their children is by preparing them for the future, letting them see what they're capable of, and arming them with skills and work habits.

英语作文 篇7

  The importance of self-confidence

  Currently, self-confidence has been the order of the day .This does demonstrate the theory --- nothing is more valuable than self-confidence.

  It is clear that (self-confidence means trust in one’s abilities ). If you ( are full of self-confidence ,it will bring your creative powerto play , arouse your enthusiasm for work, and help you overcome difficulties ), as a result , your dreams willcome true .On the contrary, if you ( have no confidence in yourself, there is little possibility that you would ever achieve anything ). Failure will be following with you。It turns out that all your plan falls through .

  No one can deny another fact that (self-confidence gives you light when you are in dark and encouragement when you are dismayed) . You donn’t have to look very far to find out the truth , in respect that we all know (the secret of MMe.Curie lies in preserverence and self-confidence, the latter in particular) . It will exert a profound

  influence upon ( the achievement of one’s ambitions ).

  With reference to my standpoint ,I think (he that can have self-confidence can have what he will).
