So off they went, driving the country roads of northern Rhode Island on the kind of day only mid-May can produce: sparkling sunshine, unclouded azure skies and vibrant newness of the green growing all around. They went past small villages and burgeoning housing developments, past abandoned apple orchards, back to where trees and brush have devoured old homesteads.

于是,他们就出发了,驱车行驶在罗德岛北部的乡村小路上,那种天气只有5月中旬才会有:闪亮的阳光、蔚蓝色的晴空以及生机勃勃、随处可见的绿意.他们穿过一座座小村庄和一座座拔地而起的房屋,穿过废弃的苹果园,来到了树林和灌木丛掩映的老农场.

Where they stopped, dense thickets of cedars and junipers and birch crowded the roadway on both sides. There wasn't a lilac bush in sight.

他们停下车.车道两边长满了茂盛的雪松、杜松和白桦树.眼前没有一棵紫丁香.

"Come with me," the man said. "Over that hill is an old cellar hole, from somebody's farm of years ago, and there are lilacs all round it. The man who owns this land said I could poke around here anytime. I'm sure he won't mind if we pick a few lilacs. "

"随我来,"那个男人说,"翻过那座小山,有个老地窖,几年前是一个人的农场,四周长满了紫丁香.这块地的主人说我可以随时到这儿来闲逛.我相信,要是我们采几束紫丁香,他不会介意."

Before they got halfway up the hill, the fragrance of the lilacs drifted down to them, and the kids started running. Soon, the mother began running, too, until she reached the top.

还没等他们到达半山腰,紫丁香的芬芳已经向他们飘了过来.于是,孩子们开始奔跑.不久,那位母亲也开始跑起来,直至到达山顶.

There, far from view of passing motorists and hidden from encroaching civilization, were the towering lilacs bushes, so laden with the huge, cone-shaped flower clusters that they almost bent double. With a smile, the young woman rushed up to the nearest bush and buried her face in the flowers, drinking in the fragrance and the memories it recalled.

那里,远离了过往司机的视野,避开了纷扰的文明世界,高耸的丁香花丛开满了硕大的圆锥形的串串花束,几乎把花茎压成了两折.那个年轻女人微笑着冲到最近的一处花丛,把脸埋在鲜花中,啜饮着芳香,陶醉在重新唤起的记忆中.

While the man examined the cellar hole and tried to explain to the children what the house must have looked like, the woman drifted among the lilacs. Carefully, she chose a sprig here, another one there, and clipped them with her husband's pocket knife. She was in no hurry, relishing each blossom as a rare and delicate treasure.

在那个男人察看地窖试图向孩子们解释这座房子必定是什么样子的当儿,那个女人不由自主地走进了紫丁香花丛.她小心翼翼地从这儿摘一枝,那儿挑一束,然后用丈夫的袖珍小刀将它们剪下来.她不慌不忙,像欣赏稀有珍宝似地欣赏着每一朵花

Finally, though, they returned to their car for the trip home. While the kids chattered and the man drove, the woman sat smiling, surrounded by her flowers, a faraway look in her eyes.

然而,他们终于还是返回了汽车,走上了回家的路.孩子们叽叽喳喳说个不停,那个男人驾着车,那个女人坐在那儿面带微笑,她周围放满了鲜花,眼睛里充满着向往.

英语作文,伟人 篇一:有关名人崇拜的英语作文Nowadys,idol worship becomes a way of life,especially during part of undergraduates.We can know about some crazy things that happened in them from reports.For instance,some fans even snatched phones from strangers in the street so as to support their idol by sending messages;some fans were inclined to suicide because of the death of their idol;in order to participate in their idol’s concerts,some fans spent excessive money that their family could not afford. We have to dwell that what makes such marvel things happened. On one hand,some biologists believe that it was our DNA that makes us come to worship celebrities.They say that as long as there have been those who pull ahead of the crowd in fame or fortune,there has been a curious crowd wanting to follow,this phenomenon is programmed into our DNA.Those who can’t clearly handle the impact of DNA may do some unbelievable things.On the other hand,some sociologists who study the cult of celebrities hold that fans are getting tired of the monotonous life at home and school so that they are eager to have some exciting experience.

summary 范文

Original: My neighbor's children love playing hide-and-seek as all children do, but no one imagine that a game they played last week would be reported in the local newspaper. One afternoon, they were playing in the vacant lot down the corner. Young Paul, who is only five years old, found the perfect place to hide. His sister, Natalie, had shut her eyes and was counting to ten when Paul noticed the storage mail box at the corner and saw that the metal door was standing open. The mailman had just taken out several sacks of mail and had carried them to his truck which was standing at the curb a few feet away. Paul climbed into the storage box and pulled the door closed so hard that it locked. Soon realizing what he had done, he became frightened and started crying. Meanwhile, Natalie was looking for him everywhere but could not find him. It was lucky that she happened to pause at the corner for a minute and heard her brother's cries. She immediately ran to tell the mailman who hurried back from his truck to unlock the metal door. Paul was now free, but he had had such a bad scare that he could not stop crying. The mailman, however, soon found a way of making him laugh again. He told him that the next time he wanted to hide in a mail box, he should remember to put a stamp on himself! Summary: The children were playing hide-and-seek in a vacant lot one afternoon. Finding that the storage mailbox had been left open, Paul hid and locked himself in it accidentally. His sister, Natalie, heard his cries and realized where he was hiding, so she immediately told the mailman to unlock the metal door. After letting him out, the mailman made him stop crying by telling him to put a stamp on himself the next he wanted to hide in a mailbox. Original: Why do some animals die out? In the past two hundred years people have caused many kinds of animals to die out--to become extinct. People keep building houses and factories in fields and woods. As they spread over the land, they destroy animals' homes. If the animals can't find a place to live, they die out. Sixteen kinds of Hawaiian birds have become extinct for this reason. Other animals, such as the Florida Key deer, may soon die out because they are losing their homes.Hunters have caused some animals to become extinct, too. In the last century, hunters killed all the passenger pigeons in North America and most of the buffalos. Today they are fast killing off hawks and wolves. Pollution is killing many animals today, too. As rivers become polluted, fish are poisoned. Many die. Birds that eat the poisoned fish can't lay strong, healthy eggs. New birds aren’t born. So far, no animals have become extinct because of pollution. But some, such as the bald eagle and the brown pelican, have become rare and may die out. Scientists think that some animals become extinct because of changes in climate. The places where they live become hotter or cooler, drier or wetter. The food that they eat cannot grow there any more. If the animals can't learn to eat something else, they die. Dinosaurs may have died out for this reason. Summary:

最新外国名人事迹材料800字

外国名人事迹材料800字 牛顿的研究领域非常广泛,他在几乎每个他所涉足的科学领域都做出了重要的成绩。接下来是小编为大家整理的关于外国名人事迹的作文,方便大家阅读与鉴赏! 关于外国名人事迹的作文1 牛顿运动三定律是构成经典力学的理论基础。这些定律是在大量实验基础上总结出来的,是解决机械运动问题的基本理论依据。 1687年,牛顿出版了代表作《自然哲学的数学原理》,这是一部力学的经典着作。牛顿在这部书中,从力学的基本概念(质量、动量、惯性、力)和基本定律(运动三定律)出发,运用他所发明的微积分这一锐利的数学工具,建立了经典力学的完整而严密的体系,把天体力学和地面上的物体力学统一起来,实现了物理学史上第一次大的综合。 在光学方面,牛顿也取得了巨大成果。他利用三棱镜试验了白光分解为的有颜色的光,最早发现了白光的组成。他对各色光的折射率进行了精确分析,说明了色散现象的本质。他指出,由于对不同颜色的光的折射率和反射率不同,才造成物体颜色的差别,从而揭开了颜色之迷。牛顿还提出了光的微粒说,认为光是由微粒形成的,并且走的是最快速的直线运动路径。他的微粒说与后来惠更斯的波动说构成了关于光的两大基本理论。此外,他还制作了牛顿色盘和反射式望远镜等多种光学仪器。 他研究过计温学,观测水沸腾或凝固时的固定温度,研究热物体的冷却律,以及其他一些只有在与他自己的主要成就想比较时,才显

得逊色的课题。 牛顿晚年 随着科学声誉的提高,牛顿的政治地位也得到了提升。1689年,他被当选为国会中的大学代表。作为国会议员,牛顿逐渐开始疏远给他带来巨大成就的科学。他不时表示出对以他为代表的领域的厌恶。同时,他的大量的时间花费在了和同时代的着名科学家如胡克、莱布尼兹等进行科学优先权的争论上。 晚年的牛顿在伦敦过着堂皇的生活,1705年他被安妮女王封为贵族。此时的牛顿非常富有,被普遍认为是生存着的最伟大的科学家。他担任英国皇家学会会长,在他任职的二十四年时间里,他以铁拳统治着学会。没有他的同意,任何人都不能被选举。 晚年的牛顿开始致力于对神学的研究,他否定哲学的指导作用,虔诚地相信上帝,埋头于写以神学为题材的着作。当他遇到难以解释的天体运动时,竟提出了神的第一推动力的谬论。他说上帝统治万物,我们是他的仆人而敬畏他、崇拜他。 1727年3月20日,伟大艾萨克牛顿逝世。同其他很多杰出的英国人一样,他被埋葬在了威斯敏斯特教堂。他的墓碑上镌刻着:让人们欢呼这样一位多么伟大的人类荣耀曾经在世界上存在。 关于外国名人事迹的作文2 哥白尼是文艺复兴时期波兰着名的天文学家,是太阳中心说的创始人。他的太阳中心说的创立,从根本上纠正了地球中心说,揭穿了宗教神学伪造的谎言,对社会革命起了巨大的推动作用。

作文素材:30个古今中外名人故事

作文素材:30个古今中外名人故事 一、贫穷造就了作家 年轻时的左拉很穷。为了抵挡饥饿,他拿捕雀器在屋顶上捉麻雀,用挂窗帘的铁丝将麻雀串起来在火上烤着吃;为了坚持写作,他把仅有的几件衣服也送进了当铺,只能用被子来御寒。偶尔得到一个蜡烛头,他竟会如过节似的高兴,因为今夜可以读书写作了。正是贫穷磨砺了他的意志,他终于写成了轰动一时的《卢贡·马加尔家族》。 分析:有人面对贫穷时会一蹶不振,有人却能以贫穷为动力,实现自己的目标。左拉为我们树立了榜样。 话题:"贫穷是一笔财富""坚持不懈""苦难出人才" 二、艰难困苦铸人才 米勒是19世纪法国著名的作家。他生于农家,年轻时跟人学画,因为不满其老师浮华的艺术风格,便离开了他的老师。后来,他在巴黎以画裸体画糊口,渐渐地他对此种艺术感到厌倦,但其他题材的画也卖不出去,因此,一度陷于贫困、苦恼和绝望的深渊。为生活所迫,他只好离开巴黎,住到乡下。在农村,他依然未能摆脱贫困,但美丽的大自然、淳朴的农民和农家生活,激起了画家的创作激情。他忍受了一切艰难,坚持创作,创作出了许多著名的作品,如《播种者》等。分析:人的一生都会遇到千辛万苦,甚至疾病、死亡。不怕困难、挫折,努力奋斗,定能书写辉煌的人生。 话题:"成功与磨难""挫折的力量""苦难是一种财富" 三、磨难是财富 困难、挫折对有志者来说是一笔财富。苏联"宇宙之父"齐奥尔科夫斯基,少年时患猩红热病而耳聋,被赶出学校。但他靠图书馆自学,显示了惊人的数学才能。德国诗人海涅生前最后八年是在"被褥的坟墓"中度过的,他手足不能动弹,眼睛半瞎,但生命之火不灭,吟出了大量誉满人间的优秀诗篇。 分析:也许没有声音的世界更能静心思考,但"被褥的坟墓"绝难予人灵感,一颗坚强的心才是根本! 话题:"磨难是财富""生命的力量" 四、面对失败和贫困 杰克·伦敦自幼家境贫寒,但他雄心勃勃为自己设计了一个做大作家、用笔杆子改造社会的远大前程。为了当作家,他在中学补课一年,然后考入加利福利亚大学,但因难以支付学费,只读了半年就辍学了。失学并没有动摇他当作家的决心,他改变主意,以社会为学习的课堂,更加孜孜不倦地学习。达尔文、马克思、尼采等的作品使他学会思考;莎士比亚、歌德、巴尔扎克等的作品使他学会写作。他开始写稿投稿,但却一次次地被退回。可他并不灰心。生活困难,就靠典当过日子,挤时间写。白天时间不够就晚上写;勤奋地做笔记,搞索引,抄卡片。终于在1890年发表了处女作《给猎人》,后来名著累累,成为一名大作家。 分析:艰难困难,玉汝于成!杰克·伦敦的经历只不过把人类几千年来的经验和真理再实践了一遍而已。 1
