A man came home form work late, tired and found his 5 years old son waiting for him at the door. "Daddy,may I ask you a questIon ?" "Yeah, sure, what is it?" replied the man. "Daddy, how much do you make an hour? " " If you must know, I make $20 an hour."" Oh,"the little boy replied, with his head down, looking up, he said, "Daddy, may I please borrow $10" the father was furious, "If the only reason you asked
that is so you can borrow some money
to buy a silly toy, then you go to bed." The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. After about an hour or so,the man had calmed down. And started to think. Maybe there was something he really needed
to buy with that $10 and he really didn't ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the iIttle boy's room
and opened the door."Are you asleep, son?" he asked. "no daddy," replied the boy. "I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier." said the man, "Here's the $10 you asked for." the little boy sat straight up, smiling. "Oh, thank you daddy!" he yelled. Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills. The man, seeing that the boy already had money, started to get angry agaIn. The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at his father. "Why do you want more money? Is you already have some ?" the father asked. "Because I didn't have enough, but now I do. "the little boy repiied, "Daddy , I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour of your time ?Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you."

For me the autumn or fall starts in September when school starts its new term. I usually do some shopping. The mild weather made it very nice to study outside under the trees in a small park close to my house. I like to look up the leaves changing colors from green to red and yellow, and then brown colors. The park also has many bright fall flowers; sometimes I see a small squirrel coming down from the tree to hunt for food on the ground. On the weekends, I sometimes like to fly my kite. Usually on the street corners you can see street peddlers selling warm baked sweet potatoes. This is a nice time of the year.

Fall in Love with English
爱上英语
Hiding behind the loose
sty curtain, a teenager packed up his overcoat into the suitcase. He
planned to leave home at sk though there was thunder and lightning
outdoors. He had got to do this because he was tired of his parents’
nagging about his English study and did not want to go through it any
longer. He couldn’t get along well with English and disliked joining in
English classes because he thought his teacher ignored him on purpose.
As a result, his score in each exam never added up to over 60.
His partner was concerned
about him very much. She understood exactly what he was suffering from,
but entirely disagreed with his idea. In order to calm him down and
settle his problem, she talked with him face to face and swapped a
series of learning tips with him. The items she set down helped him find
the highway to studying English well.
The teenager was grateful
and got great power from his friend’s words. Now, he has recovered from
being upset and has fallen in love with English.
Different Countries Have Different Kinds of Englishes
不同的国家有不同的英语
Voyages of people from
England play an important part in spreading the English language. At
present, English is frequently spoken as an official or common language
in many countries, such as America, Singapore, Malaysia and some African
countries. All based on British English, the English spoken in these
countries can be well understood by native English speakers. But
actually, these Englishes have been graally changing in accents,
spellings, expressions and the usage of vocabulary.
Because of this fact, you
can make use of the differences to tell which country the foreigners of
your block are from. For example, if a boss fluently commands his
driver, “Come up straight to my apartment by elevator and take some gas
for my trucks and cabs”, instead of requesting, “Please come to my flat
by lift and take some petrol for my lorries and taxis”, you can
recognize his American identity, while the latter suggests that he is
British.
A Hard Trip
一次辛苦的旅行
My sister was fond of
traveling. Ever since graating, she had been determined to organize a
trip to an old temple. Since transporting fare was expensive, she
decided to use a bicycle to cycle there not caring about the
disadvantages. Her stubborn attitude was always her shortcoming. Once
she made up her mindto do something, no one could persuade her to change
her mind. Finally, we gave in as usual though we preferred to take a
train. After we prepared everything, including the schele, reliable
weather forecast and the insurance, we began our trip.
Our journey was along a
river flowing from a high altitude. Our pace was slow because the river
frequently had many sharp bends through deep valleys, where the water
seemed to boil. Just as I recorded in my journal, it was really a hard
journey. But we also enjoyed great views. One night, I put my head on my
pillow--a parcel of wool coats, and lay beneath the stars. When the
flame in front of our cave went out at midnight, I found the sky so
beautiful!
A Horrible Earthquake
可怕的地震
Dirty water rose in wells
and canals before the earthquake. But no one judged that an earthquake
was coming. Suddenly, everything shook. It seemed as if the world was at
an end. Millions of brick houses and a number of dams were destroyed.
Railway tracks became useless bars. Pipes in mines burst and let out
smelly steam. Huge cracks trapped cyclists everywhere.
The next day, this event
was the headline or main title of all newspapers. With the reporters
giving an outline of the disaster, the whole nation was shocked by the
damage and the victim’s extreme suffering. People were moved when they
read that the survivors comforted each other by saying “Congratulations!
You survived!”. So they not only expressed their sympathy sincerely,
but also organized together to help the victims right away. The injured
were rescued and the dead were buried. The frightened survivors were g
out from under the ruins and were offered shelter, fresh water and
electricity. Thanks to people’s help, the loss was minimized.
The Great President
伟大的总统
As the founder of the
republic, the president had many good qualities. Before coming to power,
he was a generous lawyer. He was willing to selflessly help everyone
who turned to him. He accepted no fee to offer legal guidance and
opinions to those who were out of work or unecated. Later, believing
all mankind to be equal, he devoted himself tostopping the unfair
anti-black laws. He set up the Black Youth League and was voted to be
the leader. However, though he kept peaceful principles without violence
and terror, his mean enemies still blew up his house and attacked his
relatives, and he himself couldn’t escape being sentenced to 30 years in
prison.
Not fearing of the prison
guards’ cruelty, he kept active and begged no mercy from them. As a
matter of fact, he was always hopeful and never lost heart ring the
stage even though he was in trouble.
Finally, people rewarded him with the leader’s position and a gold blanket.
A Brave Maid
勇敢的女仆
A wooden vase from the
Ming Dynasty at the entrance of the reception hall amazed everyone. The
artists designed it in a rare style and selected valuable jewels to
decorate it. People thought highly of its fancy colour of honey and the
beautiful paintings on it.
The vase used to belong to
a former castle. But when the country was at war, the enemy troops
exploded the castle. Debates on how the vase survived went on and on. In
order to remove people’s doubt, a team of no less than 20 people
carried out an informal investigation. The evidences they found showed
that a maid took the vase apart and asked a sailor to sink it in a local
well. She never gave away the secret even under the cruel trial of the
enemies who were in search of treasures.
It is worth giving this brave maid a fortune in return.
公平的比赛
Swifter, Higher and
Stronger stands for the spirit of the Olympics. But fairness is the
basis of this motto. Only when you win fairly will you and your homeland
deserve the great glory. But nowadays, unlike the ancient honest slave
competitors, some hopeless athletes who can’t bear the pain of training
cheat when taking part in games. Medals seem to have magical power
causing them to cheat, and the prize money has replaced the motto as
their only goal.
So, in the gymnastics
event to be held in our city next month, one of the host’s
responsibilities is to keep competitions fair. They advertised on
posters outside the stadium to promise that every competitor is to have a
regular physical examination in a gymnasium one after another. No one
can bargain on this. The volunteers in charge will be very strict. It is
foolish to cheat because they will not be admitted to compete and will
even be fined as well.
Computers
电脑
The goal of early
calculating machines was to simplify difficult sums. But with the help
of new technology, electronic chips replaced tubes and a revolution of
artificial intelligence has arisen. From then on, the appearance of
computers totally changed our lives. They can not only download
information from the wet when connected by the network or mobile phone
signals, but also solve different types of logical problems. With
operators as their coaches, they can even control rockets to explore the
moon and instruct androids with the human race’s characters to mop
floors and watch over your naughty niece. Anyhow, computers are so
helpful that they do bring happiness.
However, computers are
easily attacked by viruses. This reality has become a hard-to-deal
with-problem. As a result, computers are dangerous in a way. So,
personally, I worry about their universal applications in some fields,
such as finance.
Wildlife Protection
保护野生动物
Dinosaurs died out because
of an unexpected incident. But wildlife today disappears or is in
danger just because humans do harm to it. For example, tigers are hunted
for fur to make carpets so that they can only live in secure reserves;
grassland is destroyed without mercy so that st storms come into being
affecting distant cities.
Last year, scientists saw
some monkeys rubbing themselves with a certain kind of insects to
protect themselves from fierce mosquitoes biting. According to the
result of the inspection, they found that the insect contains a powerful
drug, so local farmers were employed to catch the insects. The ending
was that the insects disappeared from the whole zone. When told that it
was a loss to humans, the farmers burst into laughter and responded,
“Our real loss is our decreasing income.”
We should appreciate the
natural balance and pay more attention to the importance of wildlife
protection. Not until we succeed in letting wildlife live in peace, can
we smile in relief.
My First Band
我的第一支乐队
I was very sensitive to
music. Just dipping into the music books briefly, I could sing or play
well. To be honest, I always dreamt of becoming a famous folk actor. I
was so confident that I never decreased my devotion.
I formed my first band
called “Rolling Frog”. At the beginning, we relied on performing on
instruments in pubs or to passers –by to earn extra money in cash. Then
we wore false beards to pretend to be the musicians whom people were
familiar with. In addition, we attached humorous acts to our
performances and played jokes on each other. Soon, our “funny jazz”
became famous and invitations to perform for broadcast stations began to
come. Afterwards, we sorted out attractive music and made a record in a
studio. A million or so copies were sold and we became millionaires.
It was painful that the band broke up finally. But above all, I realized my dream to be a musician.

On the way home, Mathilde found that the necklace was gone. She was frightened to death because it was too expensive for her. She and her husband hurriedly returned and looked wherever she had been that night, but couldn’t find it at all.
What would they do? They had to buy a diamond necklace exactly like the one she borrowed from Jeanne and returned it to her. It cost them 36,000 francs.
In order to pay off the debts, they suffered hunger and cold day and night. Ten years of hard work made young Mathilde so old that Jeanne could hardly recognize her when they happened to meet one day in a park. It was then that Mathilde found out the truth: the necklace she had borrowed from Jeanne was not a real diamond necklace. It was made of glass and cost only 500 francs at most!

I was walking along the street when a stranger stopped me and asked me the way to a new restaurant. I answered and told him the route and direction carefully. As soon as I finished, the stranger thanked me and started off. To my surprise, he went in wrong direction. Then I stopped him at once and told him what wrong he had made. Unexpectedly, he smiled and told me the truth that he didn’t really want to ask the way, but, instead, he was just trying to know whether everyone knew exactly where the new restaurant was, for he was the new owner of the restaurant. Then I knew who he was and what he wanted to do.

An Instructive Day
Today is March 12, our national Tree Planting Day. Our Class observed the day by planting trees.
In high spirits we talked and smiled all the way. As soon as we got to a piece of wasteland far from the school, we began to work. Some were engaged in digging holes; some were busying themselves in covering the roots of the young trees with earth and watering the trees one by one. We worked so hard that soon each of us was wet in sweat.
On the way home we kept on singing up, because we’ve done a good thing to make our homeland green.

One day three men got a bottle of wine. But the wine was not enough for the three and each of them wanted to drink the wine alone. Then they all agreed that they each would draw a snake on the ground and the one who first finished drawing would be given the wine. So they began to draw on the ground with sticks.
It was not long before one of the three finished drawing his snake. He took up the bottle of wine with pride. He was about to drink when he found the other two were still busy with their drawings. “How slow you are!” said he, “I can even add feet to my snake before you finish yours.”
He put down the bottle and began to add feet to his snake. But before he inished, another man took hold of the bettle and said,“I’ve finished. Snakes have no feet, so yours is not a snake.”With these words he drank up the wine.

On the way home, Mathilde found that the necklace was gone. She was frightened to death because it was too expensive for her. She and her husband hurriedly returned and looked wherever she had been that night, but couldn’t find it at all.
What would they do? They had to buy a diamond necklace exactly like the one she borrowed from Jeanne and returned it to her. It cost them 36,000 francs.
In order to pay off the debts, they suffered hunger and cold day and night. Ten years of hard work made young Mathilde so old that Jeanne could hardly recognize her when they happened to meet one day in a park. It was then that Mathilde found out the truth: the necklace she had borrowed from Jeanne was not a real diamond necklace. It was made of glass and cost only 500 francs at most!

I was walking along the street when a stranger stopped me and asked me the way to a new restaurant. I answered and told him the route and direction carefully. As soon as I finished, the stranger thanked me and started off. To my surprise, he went in wrong direction. Then I stopped him at once and told him what wrong he had made. Unexpectedly, he smiled and told me the truth that he didn’t really want to ask the way, but, instead, he was just trying to know whether everyone knew exactly where the new restaurant was, for he was the new owner of the restaurant. Then I knew who he was and what he wanted to do.

An Instructive Day
Today is March 12, our national Tree Planting Day. Our Class observed the day by planting trees.
In high spirits we talked and smiled all the way. As soon as we got to a piece of wasteland far from the school, we began to work. Some were engaged in digging holes; some were busying themselves in covering the roots of the young trees with earth and watering the trees one by one. We worked so hard that soon each of us was wet in sweat.
On the way home we kept on singing up, because we’ve done a good thing to make our homeland green.

One day three men got a bottle of wine. But the wine was not enough for the three and each of them wanted to drink the wine alone. Then they all agreed that they each would draw a snake on the ground and the one who first finished drawing would be given the wine. So they began to draw on the ground with sticks.
It was not long before one of the three finished drawing his snake. He took up the bottle of wine with pride. He was about to drink when he found the other two were still busy with their drawings. “How slow you are!” said he, “I can even add feet to my snake before you finish yours.”
He put down the bottle and began to add feet to his snake. But before he inished, another man took hold of the bettle and said,“I’ve finished. Snakes have no feet, so yours is not a snake.”With these words he drank up the wine.

❾ 谁有四十篇英语短文搞定高考3500词 急着要 谢谢
生命就像一复个证件一样，有了生命制才会有双眼，才看得到这个繁荣昌盛的城市。人刚出生时，生命是多么漫长；当人老时，又觉得生命多么短暂。生命开始到完结仅仅只有一眨眼的功夫，在这一瞬间又仅仅只有好几十年。人们抱怨它，因为它不够完美，不能给他们更好的生活，我们是为了什么而生活？为什么拥有生命，生命又是什么？在课文《匆匆》里一句话写道：“我赤裸裸来到世界上，转眼间又将赤裸裸地离去？”难道朱自清也因为生命而迷茫。《匆匆》里他似乎抱怨了时间的短暂，提到时间，漫长与短暂不一样吗？漫长的时间会到尽头。短暂的时间也一样会到尽头。那两者又有什么区别呢？这么多的问题又靠谁来解答呢？
