『贰』 中文翻译成英文
翻译如下,希望能帮到你
我不喜欢做个病猫,但却又常常说自己不舒服,其实我一点也没有不舒服。只有结婚前夕紧张,临时抱佛脚或是巨大的压力,才会真正令我不舒服。
可是今早,我还是觉得自己应该请一天的假,天啊,其实我觉得我应该请两天。所以今早我做的第一件事,就是打电话请假。虽然我不是撒谎高手,但要骗过Penny,
一点都不难。总比要骗过老板容易许多。
我大约地想过今天应该做一些让自己高兴的事,一些平常我不做的事。美甲护理,脚部护理,
美容等等的事。可是我还是斗不过自己的良心谴责。我知道,虽然我家和公司有点距离,但骗大家说我生病,过后又光明正大的出门,搞不好真的会在街尾碰到同事。
所以我只好呆在家,在这寒冷的一月季节里,开着无聊的早晨电视(虽然我刚刚开到了一个挺有用的,关于结婚的节目)。我边看电视,边吃着奶油酥(这或许是我最后一次吃肥腻的食物了,我很快就要为我的婚礼,进行地狱式减肥计划)。我正在想,现在是否来得及,请一个按摩师回家,来给我减压减压。
我终于搞清楚了。装病所带来的良心谴责就是令自己不敢出门,白白浪费一天的时间。当然,
你越没事做,你就越不想找事做。到了下午两点时,我已经是又闷,又慢无目的和想睡觉。
我没有直接跑去睡,反而喝了杯浓浓的咖啡,冲了个澡,换了一身干净的衣服。
『叁』 为什么台风在美国叫飓风
飓风和台风没有本质区别,但不是楼上说的‘在太平洋上生成的叫台风,大西洋上的就叫飓风’。以下是我引的参考信息:
飓风又称台风、龙卷风,形成于赤道海洋附近的热带气旋。飓风常常行进数千公里,横扫多个国家,造成巨大损失。 地球上风灾最严重的是加勒比海地区、孟加拉湾、中国、菲律宾,其次是中美洲、美国、日本、印度,南大西洋影响最小.多出自于印度洋,太平洋,大西洋的热带海域;
台风是发生在北太平洋西部热带洋面上的一种很猛烈的大风暴。在海洋的某些区域里面,由于海水被太阳晒得很热,海面上的空气就向高空直升,这时在它周围较冷的空气乘势补缺,一齐的空气就向高空直升,这时在它周围较冷的空气乘势补缺,一齐朝中心流动,由于地球自转,使空气成反时钟方向剧烈旋转。它一边旋转,一边朝西或者西北方向移动,越转越快,越转越大。台风中心就是这个旋转空气区域的最中心,它的气压极低,风力很微弱。其中心范围大约直径10公里的圆面积内。但在中心区域外,它的风力就大了。“台风边缘”是指靠台风外缘风力达到六级的区域。台风造成的灾害以狂风和暴雨最为显著,有时会引起高潮,使海水倒灌。台风中心附近风力经常在十级以上,并有暴雨,在海洋上能掀起山岳般的巨浪。
其实没什么区别

Hayao Miyazaki was born in Tokyo on January 5, 1941. As a boy, he liked to read and draw cartoons. After graating from university in 1963, Miyazaki joined the Toei Animation (动画片制作) Company. At Toei, he worked on many animated movies, like the famous Puss in Boots. In 1984, he made Nausicaa of the Valley of Wind, which was based on a comic book he wrote. Because this movie was so successful, Miyazaki was able to start his own animation company, Studio Ghibli.
One of Miyazaki's most loved movies is My Neighbour Totoro, made in 1987. It is a children's movie, but many teenagers and alts like it too. The movie is about two sisters who become friends with a big, supernatural (神奇的) animal named Totoro. It is a very warm-hearted story, with many strange and interesting characters such as Cat Bus, a cat which is also a bus. Miyazaki's
2001 movie, Spirited Away, was even more popular than My Neighbour Totoro.
All of Miyazaki's movies have strange but charming people and creatures. Many of his stories happen in worlds that are different from ours. However, they still show his ideas about real life. He often points out how humans hurt the natural world. He thinks people should change the ways how they live. This may be why so many people like his movies.
51. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. The movie My Neighbour Totoro. B. The early life of Hayao Miyazaki.
C. The most famous movie in Japan. D. The works of Hayao Miyazaki.

C. Puss in Boots. D. Spirited Away.
54. Who likes My Neighbour Totoro?

Tropical cyclones (热带旋风) are called typhoons (台风) in Asia, and hurricanes (飓风) in North and South America. These storms go around like a wheel(轮子) turning to the left. They have wind speeds of 60 kph or more. They can be very destructive (毁灭性的). In the United States, the Tropical Prediction Centre in Miami, Florida, looks out for hurricanes.
When scientists discover a true hurricane, they give it a name. They can use either a man's or woman's name. Why should hurricanes have names? The names make it easier for people to keep up with information about a hurricane and its dangers.
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO), an international weather group, decides what names will be used. The WMO makes six lists (列表) of names, using the English alphabet. Each list is used for one year. When a hurricane happens, it gets the next name on the list for that year. For example, the first hurricane of the year might have the name Abel, while the second one could be Betty. The name lists do not include (包含) names beginning with the letters O, U, X, Y, and Z, since there are few names that begin with these letters. Asian countries use a different list. This list has a few personal names, but most of the names are of flowers, animals and trees.
56. Why should hurricans have names?
A. It sounds interesting.
B. The names help people get information about a hurricane.
C. The names are only for the WMO.
D. It is traditional.
57. _________ decides what names will be used for hurricanes.
A. The Tropical Prediction Centre B. A scientist
C. The WMO D. Abel
58. Which name would a hurricane never have?
A. Rita. B. Veronica. C. William. D. Yanni.
59. The Fifth hurricane of 2010 might have the name ________.
A. Diana. B. Darren. C. Eric. D. Connie.
60. Asian countries name typhoons after ________.
A. books and buildings B. flowers and animals
C. mountains and rivers D. oceans and rivers
C
DJs (disc jockeys) are the people who play and present music on the radio, or in a nightclub. A VJ (video jockey) is a person who introces music videos on television.
VJs were first seen on television in the early 1980s when MTV went on the air. As MTV became popular and the audience for music videos increased, different kinds of music video channels started broadcasting. By the 1990s, international music video channels like Channel V in Asia and VIVA in Europe had started.
The VJs for the new international stations had to be chosen carefully. Although some VJs showed mostly local content (本地内容), other VJs presented shows for international viewers (电视观众). These VJs, and the material (素材) they presented, needed to be popular in several different cultures.
One successful international VJ in Asia is Asha Gill. She is from Malaysia, but her parents and grandparents are from India, France, and England. She speaks three languages and has fans across Asia.
When asked what makes a good VJ, many successful VJs have given similar answers. To be a good VJ you need to know a lot about music, you need to be funny, and you can't be shy.
61. DJs play music _________, while VJs introce music videos _________.
62. When did VJs first appear on television?
63. VJs for international channels should be chosen carefully because they have to be _________.
64. What kind of people can become good VJs?

“It's really cool to have a dad who flies fighter jets (喷气式战斗机),” thought 11-year-old Casey as she was watching him fly overhead.
Living on an Air Force base (空军基地) was not as bad as some people might think. Casey rather enjoyed being around friends who had something in common with each other. They had their own school, bowling area, and movie theatre. She especially loved it when her dad would come home each day and greet her with a new joke and tickles (搔痒).
Today was different, though. When her dad walked into the room, he looked sad for some reason. He just kissed her on the forehead and told her mum that he needed to talk to her. Casey knew something was wrong.
When her mum and dad came out of the other room, mum was crying. Dad sat down and began to explain that he has been told to go to Iraq to help with the war effort. Casey was so surprised that she couldn't speak for a moment. She began to feel tears in her eyes.
Soon, the day came. Her dad was leaving. It was hard for Casey to believe that she wouldn't be seeing her dad for a whole year. They depended on (依赖) him for so many things. Who would fix the broken window? Who would greet her with jokes and tickles at the end of the day? Casey began to cry more than ever.
68. According to the story, one thing Casey enjoyed on the base was that she and her friends _________.
69. How did Casey know that something was wrong when her dad got home?
70. How long would her dad be away?

Hayao Miyazaki was born in Tokyo on January 5, 1941. As a boy, he liked to read and draw cartoons. After graating from university in 1963, Miyazaki joined the Toei Animation (动画片制作) Company. At Toei, he worked on many animated movies, like the famous Puss in Boots. In 1984, he made Nausicaa of the Valley of Wind, which was based on a comic book he wrote. Because this movie was so successful, Miyazaki was able to start his own animation company, Studio Ghibli.
One of Miyazaki's most loved movies is My Neighbour Totoro, made in 1987. It is a children's movie, but many teenagers and alts like it too. The movie is about two sisters who become friends with a big, supernatural (神奇的) animal named Totoro. It is a very warm-hearted story, with many strange and interesting characters such as Cat Bus, a cat which is also a bus. Miyazaki's
2001 movie, Spirited Away, was even more popular than My Neighbour Totoro.
All of Miyazaki's movies have strange but charming people and creatures. Many of his stories happen in worlds that are different from ours. However, they still show his ideas about real life. He often points out how humans hurt the natural world. He thinks people should change the ways how they live. This may be why so many people like his movies.

Tropical cyclones (热带旋风) are called typhoons (台风) in Asia, and hurricanes (飓风) in North and South America. These storms go around like a wheel(轮子) turning to the left. They have wind speeds of 60 kph or more. They can be very destructive (毁灭性的). In the United States, the Tropical Prediction Centre in Miami, Florida, looks out for hurricanes.
When scientists discover a true hurricane, they give it a name. They can use either a man's or woman's name. Why should hurricanes have names? The names make it easier for people to keep up with information about a hurricane and its dangers.
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO), an international weather group, decides what names will be used. The WMO makes six lists (列表) of names, using the English alphabet. Each list is used for one year. When a hurricane happens, it gets the next name on the list for that year. For example, the first hurricane of the year might have the name Abel, while the second one could be Betty. The name lists do not include (包含) names beginning with the letters O, U, X, Y, and Z, since there are few names that begin with these letters. Asian countries use a different list. This list has a few personal names, but most of the names are of flowers, animals and trees.
56. Why should hurricans have names?
A. It sounds interesting.
B. The names help people get information about a hurricane.
C. The names are only for the WMO.
D. It is traditional.
57. _________ decides what names will be used for hurricanes.
A. The Tropical Prediction Centre B. A scientist
C. The WMO D. Abel
58. Which name would a hurricane never have?
A. Rita. B. Veronica. C. William. D. Yanni.
59. The Fifth hurricane of 2010 might have the name ________.
A. Diana. B. Darren. C. Eric. D. Connie.
60. Asian countries name typhoons after ________.
A. books and buildings B. flowers and animals
C. mountains and rivers D. oceans and rivers
C
DJs (disc jockeys) are the people who play and present music on the radio, or in a nightclub. A VJ (video jockey) is a person who introces music videos on television.
VJs were first seen on television in the early 1980s when MTV went on the air. As MTV became popular and the audience for music videos increased, different kinds of music video channels started broadcasting. By the 1990s, international music video channels like Channel V in Asia and VIVA in Europe had started.
The VJs for the new international stations had to be chosen carefully. Although some VJs showed mostly local content (本地内容), other VJs presented shows for international viewers (电视观众). These VJs, and the material (素材) they presented, needed to be popular in several different cultures.
One successful international VJ in Asia is Asha Gill. She is from Malaysia, but her parents and grandparents are from India, France, and England. She speaks three languages and has fans across Asia.
When asked what makes a good VJ, many successful VJs have given similar answers. To be a good VJ you need to know a lot about music, you need to be funny, and you can't be shy.
61. DJs play music _________, while VJs introce music videos _________.
62. When did VJs first appear on television?
63. VJs for international channels should be chosen carefully because they have to be _________.
64. What kind of people can become good VJs?

“It's really cool to have a dad who flies fighter jets (喷气式战斗机),” thought 11-year-old Casey as she was watching him fly overhead.
Living on an Air Force base (空军基地) was not as bad as some people might think. Casey rather enjoyed being around friends who had something in common with each other. They had their own school, bowling area, and movie theatre. She especially loved it when her dad would come home each day and greet her with a new joke and tickles (搔痒).
Today was different, though. When her dad walked into the room, he looked sad for some reason. He just kissed her on the forehead and told her mum that he needed to talk to her. Casey knew something was wrong.
When her mum and dad came out of the other room, mum was crying. Dad sat down and began to explain that he has been told to go to Iraq to help with the war effort. Casey was so surprised that she couldn't speak for a moment. She began to feel tears in her eyes.
Soon, the day came. Her dad was leaving. It was hard for Casey to believe that she wouldn't be seeing her dad for a whole year. They depended on (依赖) him for so many things. Who would fix the broken window? Who would greet her with jokes and tickles at the end of the day? Casey began to cry more than ever.
68. According to the story, one thing Casey enjoyed on the base was that she and her friends _________.
69. How did Casey know that something was wrong when her dad got home?

『拾』 有关09英语希望之星初赛
我参加了,已经比完了,我觉得自我介绍没有必要那么长,演讲的时候最好是给评委讲一个有意义的又不是很难的故事。我想想范文,你自己最好再改改,不然有的你不是很熟悉的就容易忘记的。要知道,是一样讲的形式,限时3分钟哦~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Never Give Up
“If I could reach higher, just for one moment to touch the sky…”---this is from my favorite song Reach.
When we are appreciating the passionate melody of Gloria Estefan, we could hardly imagine that she could return to the stage after her paralysis. In the year 1990, this Cuban singer was knocked down in a traffic accident, and the doctor declared that she might never walk again. But Gloria did not give up and kept up constant exercising. Just one year after the disaster, she stood up again and presented this encouraging song at the Atlanta Olympics.
Whenever I think of Gloria, I can’t help recalling my memory seven years ago, when I first entered university. Naturally shy, ordinary looking, average scores in study, just like an ugly ckling, I seemed to be the least outstanding one in my class. And the successive failures in the beginning led me into despair. “Am I destined to take the back seat to others?” Unwilling to submit to the fate, I paid more efforts on my study as well as many other activities, film bbing, recital, drama… cause I just want to catch every little opportunity to prove myself. Constant effort yields sure success. Thanks to the competition, I received some awards and most of all, I gained the courage and confidence to face any difficulties in my life journey.
Life is just like farming, and what you can reap depends a lot on your sowing and dedication. Once you have a dream, don’t be hesitant. Your next difficult step may be the one to the top. Keep going forward, even in the toughest time, and never give up.
永不放弃
“如果我能到达更高的地方,哪怕只有碰触天空的一刹那…”---选自我所喜爱的歌曲《到达》。
当我们在欣赏葛罗莉亚·伊斯特芬那充满激情的旋律,我们很难想象她能从瘫痪中回到舞台。1990年这个古巴歌手遭遇车祸,医生说她可能再也没办法走路了。可是葛罗莉亚并没有放弃希望,坚持做恢复训练。在灾难后仅仅一年,她又站起来了,并且在亚特兰大奥运会上唱响了这首鼓舞人心的歌曲。
每当我想起葛罗莉亚的时候,我禁不住回忆起七年前我刚进入大学的时候。天性害羞,相貌平平,成绩一般,就像一只丑小鸭,我是班上最不起眼的一个。而且在刚开学时一连串的失败让我陷入绝望。“难道我注定要给别人当配角吗?” 不愿意向这个命运屈服,我更加努力的学习并且参加许多其他的活动,电影配音、朗诵、戏剧…因为我想抓住任何一个微小的机会来证实我自己。不懈的努力终会带来成功。我从竞赛中获得了一些奖励,最重要的是,我从中得到了面对人生一切困难的勇气和决心。
生活就像是耕耘,一份耕耘一份收获。一旦你有了梦想,不要犹豫。你艰难的下一步也许就是通往成功的阶梯。即使在最困难的时候也要勇往直前,决不放弃。
你改成适合你的风格就可以了。
记住,开场白是 Hello,everyone,my name is .I am glad to stand here .
Today I am gong to talk adout.....
结尾 That is all.thank you .
