初一英語短文篇2
Nowadays there are fewer and fewer cinema-goers and the cinema is relax. However,there are more and more TV viewers. There are many reasons for this social phenomenon, but in general, they come down to three major ones. First, film tickets are too expensive, while it doesn't cost much to watch TV at home. Besides, it is time-consuming and inconvenient to go to the cinema. Nevertheless, it is very convenient and comfortable to watch TV at home. You needn't go out but just need to turn on the television. Most important of all, if you don't like the film, you'll have to sit through it; but if you don't like one programme on TV,you can shift to another.

However,some people still go to the cinema. They usually go to the cinema for the purpose of social contact. Young people go dating there. Other people go to the cinema as an activity. For example, schools often organize children to go to the cinema. Sometimes employees also go to the cinema with the free tickets presented by their institutions.

如今越來越少的觀眾說，看電影是放鬆的了。然而，卻有了越來越多的電視觀眾。導致這種社會現象的原因有很多，但總的來說，他們可以歸結為三個主要的原因。首先，電影票太貴，在家看電視的成本不太大。除此之外，它耗費時間和不方便去看電影。然而，在家裡看電視它非常方便和舒適。你不必出門，只需要打開電視。最重要的是，如果你不喜歡這部電影，你將不得不耐著性子看完它，但是如果你不喜歡一個電視節目，你可以轉移到另一個節目。

然而，一些人還去看電影。他們通常去看電影是有目的性的。年輕人去約會，別人去看電影作為一種活動。例如，學校經常組織孩子們去看電影。有時候員工也使用機構提供的免費門票去看電影。

At noon, the children eat lunch at school, alts at lunch on the job on the vicinity to buy a sandwich, a cup of coffee on, just kill. Only to the weekend, the British people will be rich on a table. Usually the main course is meat, such as grilled chicken, roast beef, fish and so on.

英國人的飲食習慣亦式樣簡單，注重營養。早餐通常是麥片粥沖牛奶或一杯果汁，塗上黃油的烤麵包片，熏鹹肉或煎香腸、雞蛋。中午，孩子們在學校吃午餐，大人的午餐就在工作地點附近買上一份三明治，就一杯咖啡，打發了事。只有到周末，英國人的飯桌上才會豐盛一番。通常主菜是肉類，如烤雞肉、烤牛肉、烤魚等。

A wide variety of vegetables, like cabbage, fresh peas, potatoes, carrots and so on. Vegetables in general are no longer processed, mounted on a tray, poured from the supermarket to buy ready-made sauce will be consumed. After the main course there will always be together digestible of sweets, such as cooking fruit, fruit pudding, cheese, ice cream and so on.

不同於西方，中國人在吃飯時是一家人圍坐在一起，每個人面前擺有一套餐具：兩個碗，一個用來盛米飯，另一個用來盛湯;一副筷子和一個用來盛肉或蔬菜的盤子。

七年級英語短文：Plants in the Deserts

沙漠中的植物

Some cacti, like the saguaro, grow to tree size, but true trees need more moisture than most desert environments can supply, so they are scarce on deserts.

一些仙人掌，如撒瓜羅，能長到橡樹那麼高。但真正的樹卻需要比大多數沙漠所能提供的更多的水分，所以樹在沙漠里是鮮見的。

Close to streambeds, cottonwoods can sometimes be found. Though these streams are dry most of the year, water flows there longest and is usually available fairly close to the surface. Elsewhere, trees must send taproots deep into the hard baked desert soil to draw on underground water. Perhaps the most widespread family of trees on the world's deserts is the acacia, whose taproots drill down as fas as 25 feet (7.5 meters).

在小溪河床附近，有時能發現三角葉楊。盡管一年的大多數時間里這些小溪都是乾涸的，那裡卻是水流的時間最長的地方而且水分相當靠近地表。其他地方樹木的主根必須深入受炙烤而堅硬的沙漠底部的土壤以吸取地下水。在沙漠里分布最廣的樹或許是刺魏，其主根能深達25英尺(合75米)。

The mesquite common on North American deserts in both tree and shrub forms, does not begin to grow above ground until its root system is completely developed, ensuring the plant a supply of moisture. The roots of shrubs and trees help to hold the desert soil in place. Their stalks and branches also act as screens to keep the wind from sweeping great drifts of sand along the surface. These services are vital if a desert is to support life.

牧豆樹屬植物不論是喬木和灌木，在北美沙漠中經常可見，在它根部系統完全生長發達到能保證提供充足的水分時才長出地面。灌木和樹的根有助於固定沙漠中的土壤，它們的莖和樹枝同時起屏障的作用，防止風從沙漠表面吹起大堆的沙。如果沙漠要支持生命，這種作用必不可少。

In addition to a few varieties of trees and tough shrubs, most deserts have grasses, herbs, and other annual plants. These do not compete for moisture with the longer lived growth. They spring up quickly after rains, when the surface is moist. Then, for a brief time, the desert can be literally carpeted with color. Almost as quickly as they appeared, these small plants die away. But they have developed special ways of ensuring the life of another generation when rains come again.

除了一些種類的樹木和頑強的灌木外，大多數沙漠里還有青草、草本植物和其他年生植物。它們並不與長期生長的樹木競爭水分。當雨後地表還潮濕時它們就迅速發芽，然後在一個短時間里，給沙漠鋪上綠色地毯。這些小植物很快就消失了，幾乎就像它們長出來時那樣迅速，但它們已發展了特殊方式來保證在下次降雨來時下一代的生命。

七年級英語短文：An October Sunrise

十月的日出

I was up the next morning before the October sunrise, and away through the wild and the woodland. The rising of the sun was noble in the cold and warmth of it: peeping down the spread of light, he raised his shoulder heavily over the edge of grey mountain and wavering length of upland.

第二天凌晨，在十月的太陽升起之前，我已經起身，穿過了曠野和叢林。十月的清晨乍寒還暖，日出的景象壯觀絢麗。透過一片晨曦，朝陽從朦朧的山岡和連綿起伏的高地間，沉重地抬起肩頭。

Beneath his gaze the dew-fogs dipped, and crept to crept to the hollow places; then stole away in line and column, holding skirts, and clinging subtly at the sheltering corners where rock hung over grassland, while the brave lines of the hills came forth, one beyong other gliding.

在它的逼視下，蒙蒙的霧氣下沉，緩緩地散向谷底，接著一絲絲一縷縷地悄悄飄散，籠住峭壁。而在草地之上懸崖之下的那些隱秘角落裡，霧氣卻還不願散去，同時群山的雄姿接二連三地顯現出來。

The woods arose in folds, like drapery of awakened mountains, stately with a depth of awe, and memory of the tempests. Autumn's mellow hand was upon them, as they owned already, touched with gold and red and olive, and their joy towards the sun was less to a bridegroom than a father.

森林也層層疊疊地顯現，宛若剛剛蘇醒的山巒的斗篷，端莊威嚴，並帶著狂風暴雨的回憶。秋天溫柔的手已經在撫摸這片山林，因為它們的顏色已經改變，染上了金黃、丹紅和橄欖綠。它們對朝日所懷的一片喜悅，像是要奉獻給一個新郎，更像是要奉獻給一位父親。

Yet before the floating impress of the woods could clear itself, suddenly the gladsome light leaped over hill and valley, casting amber, blue, and purple, and a tint of rich red rose; according to the scene they lit on, and the curtain flung around; yet all alike dispelling fear and the cloven hoof of darkness, all on the wings of hope advancing, and proclaiming, "God is here!" then life and joy sprang reassured from every crouching hollow; every flower, and bud and bird had a fluttering sense of them; and all the flashing of God's gaze merged into soft beneficence.

然而，在樹林那流動的景色逝去之前，歡悅的晨光突然躍出了峰巒和山谷，光線所及，把照到的地方和周圍的森林分別染成青色、紫色、琥珀色和富麗的紅玫瑰色。光線照到哪裡，那裡就如同一幅幕布被掀開。所有的一切驅散了恐懼和黑暗中的邪惡，所有的一切都插上希望之翼，開始前進，並大聲宣告：“上帝在這里!”於是生命和歡樂從每一個蜷伏的洞穴里信心十足地欣然躍出;一切花朵、蓓蕾和鳥雀都感到了生命和歡樂而抖動起來;上帝的凝視匯合成溫柔的恩澤。

So, perhaps, shall break upon us that eternal morning, when crag and chasm shall be no more, neither hill and valley, nor great ocean; but all things shall arise, and shine in the light of the Father's countenance, because itself is risen.

也許，那永恆的晨光就會這樣降臨人間，那時不再有險崖溝壑，不再有峰戀山谷，也不再有浩瀚無際的海洋;萬物都將踴躍升騰，在造物主慈愛的光芒中生輝，因為太陽已經升起。

終於放暑假了，啊!真好!結束了一學期的辛苦學習生活後，我又開始了我的暑假生活了。

第一部曲——學習之歌

到了暑假，我以為可以輕松一下，可媽媽卻給我報了英語補習班，於是我每天都得上這個英語補習班，都給我煩死了。

到了補英語的學校後，老師給我們發了書後，我們就開始學習第一課Hi,English.當我讀不到英語單詞時，老師就叫了我們一個方法——把英文當成中文比如：change,這個單詞，老師就叫我們把chang叫做嫦，e叫做娥，這樣就會讀了。漸漸的，我就愛上英語這門功課了。

第二部曲——玩耍之歌

在暑假裡，也不能光學習，也要出去玩一下呀，於是，我，媽媽，爸爸，就一起回到了家鄉——萬和。

到了萬和後，已經是十一點多了，我們就在舅母家吃了飯，吃了飯過後，爸爸就把釣魚竿背起來去釣魚，我也跟去了。爸爸在湖裡釣魚，我就在湖旁邊的池塘里摘蓮花，扯荷葉，我把荷葉中間的荷桿拔掉，然後我鑽進去，這樣一來，荷葉就成了我的裙子了。

第三部曲——預習之歌

媽媽說：“把六年級上冊的書借來看看吧，早點預習早點懂。”於是，我就向比我大的朋友借來了六年級上冊的書，我在家看吶看吶，終於看懂了一點，但有的還不會，我就上網去查題目......

過了十幾天後，我終於把一本書預習完了，這是我的暑假生活也快結束了。

現在的我，渴望上學......

When the car in the distance cries and people happy laughter, day of the summer vacation began.

Unfortunately the happy summer vacation, again bitterness work without a few days. We are born with our work, but this work has become more heavy. Because we are busy one semester, has reached the final exam time, our job is to grasp every minute, at this time, trying to memorize the every problem come up with his usual performance in the exam, don't let work in vain.

伴隨著夏天姑娘的腳步，我的快樂的暑假生活開始了!

暑假的清晨是美麗的，當東方的天際還未清晰時，我跑到陽台，吸一口清新的空氣，立刻感到心曠神怡--空氣真好!等到太陽初起，我拿出一本書，默默地閱讀，耳邊沒有喧囂的吵鬧聲，沒有汽車喇叭的怪叫聲，只感覺柔柔的晨風在撫摸著我的耳朵，沒有人打擾，做什麼事都舒心愜意。當遠處傳來汽車的喊叫聲和人們的歡笑聲時，暑假的一天就開始了。

不幸的是快樂的暑假，沒幾天就又變成了苦惱的工作。我們生來就有我們的工作，只是這個工作變得更加沉重。因為我們忙了一個學期，已到了期末考試的時間，我們此時的工作就是把握每一分鍾，努力背好每一道題，考試時把自己平時的工作成績拿出，不讓工作白費。

緊張的考試過後，我們進入了輕鬆快樂的暑假，但現在並不是很輕松，每天我們得得東奔西跑的去補課，英語補完補數學，一節接著一節，一科接著一科，回家還得寫作業，暑假的工作是為下學期做准備。

暑假過後，我要去迎接新的難題和新的考驗。在新的學期，工作是最苦最累的，也是小學中最重要的一個學期。

工作是我們必須做的，我們生來就必須要做工作，上學時，我們的工作是努力，休息時，我們的工作是享受，遊玩時，我們的工作是放鬆……讓我們來嘗盡工作的酸甜苦辣吧!

九月九日重陽節到了。重陽節有一種傳統，喜歡晚餐湊在一起吃。幾家約好，把吃食端到一桌上。夜幕降臨，燈光閃耀，人們飲著菊花酒、二鍋頭，吃著豐盛的飯菜，歡聚暢談，交流情感。一張張笑臉，一陣陣笑語沖出狹小的房間，大家互相祝福著健康長壽、事事平安，處處洋溢著祥和的氣氛。

重陽那天，人們有敬老的風習，各家晚輩都要給上了年紀的老人多一些體貼。除了專給他們做些可口的吃食外，分家另過的親屬須慰問老者，出了嫁的閨女一早要回娘家探望父母，以報答養育之恩。有條件的人家，還要陪老人去看看熱鬧兒逛逛

重陽節之時，正值秋風送爽，天高雲淡的季節。到空曠之處放風箏，不但簡便易行，也是很受人喜歡的一種娛樂活動。

如今，時代早已變遷，昔日重陽節“又見花糕處處忙”的景象也已不見。但時逢佳節吉日，不由得又想起在庭院吃著花糕，喝著清茶說笑聊天的溫馨，思念童年一起歡笑玩耍的小夥伴。不知不覺當中想起毛主席的詩詞：人生易老天難老，歲歲重陽，今又重陽，戰地黃花分外香。一年一度秋風勁，不似春光，勝似春光，寥廓江天萬里霜。

An old woman had a cat. The cat was very old; she could not run quickly, and she could not bite, because she was so old. One day the old cat saw a mouse; she jumped and caught the mouse. But she could not bite it; so the mouse got out of her mouth and ran away, because the cat could not bite it. Then the old woman became very angry because the cat had not killed the mouse. She began to hit the cat. The cat said, "Do not hit your old servant. I have worked for you for many years, and I would work for you still, but I am too old. Do not be unkind to the old, but remember what good work the old did when they were young."

2. The City Mouse and the Country Mouse 【城裡老鼠和鄉下老鼠】
Once there were two mice. They were friends. One mouse lived in the country; the other mouse lived in the city. After many years the Country mouse saw the City mouse; he said, "Do come and see me at my house in the country." So the City mouse went. The City mouse said, "This food is not good, and your house is not good. Why do you live in a hole in the field? You should come and live in the city. You would live in a nice house made of stone. You would have nice food to eat. You must come and see me at my house in the city."
The Country mouse went to the house of the City mouse. It was a very good house. Nice food was set ready for them to eat. But just as they began to eat they heard a great noise. The City mouse cried, " Run! Run! The cat is coming!" They ran away quickly and hid.
After some time they came out. When they came out, the Country mouse said, "I do not like living in the city. I like living in my hole in the field. For it is nicer to be poor and happy, than to be rich and afraid."
從前，有兩只老鼠，它們是好朋友。一隻老鼠居住在鄉村，另一隻住在城裡。很多年以後，鄉下老鼠碰到城裡老鼠，它說：「你一定要來我鄉下的家看看。」於是，城裡老鼠就去了。鄉下老鼠領著它到了一塊田地上它自己的家裡。它把所有最精美食物都找出來給城裡老鼠。城裡老鼠說：「這東西不好吃，你的家也不好，你為什麼住在田野的地洞里呢？你應該搬到城裡去住，你能住上用石頭造的漂亮房子，還會吃上美味佳餚，你應該到我城裡的家看看。」
鄉下老鼠就到城裡老鼠的家去。房子十分漂亮，好吃的東西也為他們擺好了。可是正當他們要開始吃的時候，聽見很大的一陣響聲，城裡的老鼠叫喊起來：「快跑！快跑！貓來了！」他們飛快地跑開躲藏起來。
過了一會兒，他們出來了。當他們出來時，鄉下老鼠說：「我不喜歡住在城裡，我喜歡住在田野我的洞里。因為這樣雖然貧窮但是快樂自在，比起雖然富有卻要過著提心吊膽的生活來說，要好些。」

在田地里的人們看到了狐狸。大喊大叫：「看，看！狐狸抓住公雞逃走了。」公雞對狐狸說：「狐狸先生，你能理解么？人們認為你叼走了公雞。告訴他們這是你的，不是他們的。」
狐狸張開他的嘴說：「公雞是我的，不是你們的。」就在那時，公雞逃離了狐狸的嘴巴，跑到了樹底下。

4.My Favorite Sport 【我最喜愛的運動】
Sports help everyone to keep healthy, happy and efficient. So I pay special attention to games, especially table tennis. Table tennis is my favorite game. I play it almost every day.
Table-tennis is an ideal game for us because it brings the whole body into action. It strengthens our muscles, expands our lungs, promotes the circulation of the blood, and causes a he-althy action of the skin. Besides, it is very amusing and does not cost us much money. Table-tennis is very moderate; it is not so rough as football. It is an indoor game and can be played even on rainy days. Thus, it is my favorite kind of exercise.
運動能幫助每一個人保持健康、快樂和有效率。所以我特別重視運動，特別是乒乓球，乒乓球是我最喜歡的運動。我幾乎每天玩。
乒乓球對我們而言，是一項理想的運動，因為它可以使我們全身運動，它可以增強我們的肌肉，擴張我們的肺部，促進血液循環，並且使肌膚產生健康作用，此外，它很有趣而且所費不多。乒乓球是相當溫和適中的，它不像足球那麼粗野。它是一種室內運動，甚至在下雨天也能玩。因此，乒乓球是我最喜愛的一種運動。

5．My first Job 【我的第一份工作】
My first job was at a cramming school. It was three years ago when I just graated from junior high school and finished the entrance examination. since I had nothing to do that summer, I decided to find a job, tasting the joy of independence.
I was responsible for answering the telephone and taking the message. I worked eight hours a day, six days a week. The work was not difficult nor heavy to me and I guess I did well. The most delighted thing was perhaps that I could spend the money I earned all by myself.
我的第一份工作是在一家補習班做事。那是三年前我剛從國中畢業，考完聯考時的事了。既然我整個夏天都閑著沒事，倒不如找份差事，嘗嘗獨立賺錢的快樂。
我負責接聽電話且紀錄留言的工,一天工作八小時，一星期工作六天。那份工作對我而言既不困難亦不沉重，所以我想我還滿稱職的。而最令人快樂的事大概莫過於花全部由自己賺來的錢了！

6. Time 【時間】
Lost time is never found again. This is something which I learned very clearly last semester. I spent so much time fooling around that my grades began to suffer. I finally realized that something had to be done. It was time for a change.
Now I have a new plan for using my time wisely. I have set my alarm clock ahead half an hour. This will give me a head start on the day. I have also decided to keep a log of what I do and when I do it. Looking back on what I』ve done will give me some ideas on how to reorganize my time.
時光一去不復返，這是我上學期清楚學到的教訓。我浪費很多時間四處游盪，以致於我的成績開始退步。最後我終於了解到我必須有所作為；該是痛改前非的時候了。
現在我有一個明智運用時間的新方法。我已將鬧鍾早撥半小時，這將使我這一天的作息提前開始。我也決定將我所做的一切及做這些事的時間記錄下來。回顧我所做的事情會啟發我如何重新安排我的時間。
