英文作文 篇1
Over the years, I never thought of my father as being very emotional, and he never was, at least not in front of me. Even though he was 68 years old and only five-foot-nine, while I was six feet and 260 pounds, he seemed huge to me. I always saw him as being that staunch disciplinarian who rarely cracked a smile. My father never told me he loved me when I was a child, and I never held it against him. I think that all I really wanted was for my dad to be proud of me. In my youth, Mom always showered me with “I love you’s” every day. So I really never thought about not hearing it from my dad. I guess deep down I knew that he loved me, he just never said it. Come to think of it, I don’t think I ever told him that I loved him, either. I never really thought about it much until I faced the reality of death.
On November 9th, 1990, I received word that my National Guard unit was being activated for Operation Desert Shield. We would convoy to Fort Ben Harrison, Indiana, and then directly to Saudi Arabia. I had been in the Guard for 10 years and never dreamed that we would be activated for a war, even though I knew it was what we trained for. I went to my father and gave him the news. I could sense he was uneasy about me going. We never discussed it much more, and eight days later I was gone.
I have several close relatives who have been in the military during war time. My father and uncle were in World War II, and two brothers and a sister served in Vietnam. While I was extremely uneasy about leaving my family to serve my country in a war zone, I knew it was what I had to do. I prayed that this would make my father proud of me. My father is very involved in the Veterans of Foreign Wars organization and has always been for a strong military. I was not eligible to join the Veterans of Foreign Wars because I had not been in a war zone—a fact that always made me feel like I didn’t measure up in my father’s eyes. But now here I was, his youngest son, being shipped off to a foreign land 9,000 miles away, to fight a war in a country we had barely heard of before.On November 17, 1990, our convoy of military vehicles rolled out of rural Greenville, Michigan. The streets were filled with families and well-wishers to
see us off. As we approached the edge of town, I looked out the window of my truck and saw my wife, Kim, my children, and Mom and Dad. They were all waving and crying, except for my father. He just stood there, almost like a stone statue. He looked incredibly old at that moment. I don’t know why, he just did.
I was gone for that Thanksgiving and missed our family’s dinner. There was always a crowd, with two of my sisters, their husbands and children, plus my wife and our family. It disturbed me greatly that I couldn’t be there. A few days after Thanksgiving I was able to call my wife, and she told me something that has made me look at my father in a different way ever since.
My wife knew how my father was about his emotions, and I could hear her voice quaver as she spoke to me. She told me that my father recited his usual Thanksgiving prayer. But this time he added one last sentence. As his voice started to crack and a tear ran down his cheek, he said, “Dear Lord, please watch over and guide my son, Rick, with your hand in his time of need as he serves his country, and bring him home to us safely.” At that point he burst into tears. I had never seen my father cry, and when I heard this, I couldn’t help but start to cry myself. My wife asked me what was wrong. After regaining my composure, I said, “I guess my father really does love me.”
Eight months later, when I returned home from the war, I ran over and hugged my wife and children in a flurry of tears. When I came to my father, I embraced him and gave him a huge hug. He whispered in my ear, “I’m very proud of you, Son, and I love you.” I looked that man, my dad, straight in the eyes as I held his head between my hands and I said, “I love you too, Dad,” and we embraced again. And then together, both of us cried.
Ever since that day, my relationship with my father has never been the same. We have had many deep conversations. I learned that he’s always been proud of me, and he’s not afraid to say “I love you” anymore. Neither am I. I’m just sorry it took 29 years and a war to find it out.

感恩节英文介绍:
Thanksgiving Day is the most truly American of the national Holidays in the United States and is most closely connected with the earliest history of the country.
In 1620, the settlers, or Pilgrims, they sailed to America on the May flower, seeking a place where they could have freedom of worship. After a tempestuous two-month voyage they landed at in icy November, what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts.
During their first winter, over half of the settlers died of[1] starvation or epidemics. Those who survived began sowing in the first spring.
All summer long they waited for the harvests with great anxiety, knowing that their lives and the future existence of the colony depended on the coming harvest. Finally the fields produced a yield rich beyond expectations. And therefore it was decided that a day of thanksgiving to the Lord be fixed[2]. Years later, President of the United States proclaimed the fourth Thursday of November as Thanksgiving Day every year. The celebration of Thanksgiving Day has been observed on that date until today.
The pattern of the Thanksgiving celebration has never changed through the years. The big family dinner is planned months ahead. On the dinner table, people will find apples, oranges, chestnuts, walnuts and grapes. There will be plum pudding, mince pie, other varieties of food and cranberry juice and squash. The best and most attractive among them are roast turkey and pumpkin pie. They have been the most traditional and favorite food on Thanksgiving Day throughout the years.
Everyone agrees the dinner must be built around roast turkey stuffed with a bread dressing[3] to absorb the tasty juices as it roasts. But as cooking varies with families and with the regions where one lives, it is not easy to get a consensus on[4] the precise kind of stuffing for the royal bird.
Thanksgiving today is, in every sense, a national annual holiday on which Americans of all faiths and backgrounds join in to express their thanks for the year' s bounty and reverently ask for continued[5] blessings.
英文作文 篇5
War is a catastrophe for all mankind, no matter what language you speak, what you believe, and how you feel about life, but one thing must be the same. It is love for peace. And for this, we each Chinese feel must be quite profound, because our motherland once suffered the Japanese army's bullying. But China soldiers and civilians in order to peace at life to fight, so a large number of praise of heroes and heroines in war films was born, by people very touching the Ministry, patriotic strong, and one of the "Purple date" is a very good in recent years, many surging fierce plot let me remember.
The plot of the film pulls my feelings and my thoughts. The hero Yang Yufu and the Soviet Union began a female medic Nadya attitude towards Akiba Ko gave me a great impact, the mother is Japanese without Yang Yufu bayonet stabbed his countrymen to be alive, Japanese gruesomely tortured to death alive. But when Yang Yufu raised his dagger at Akiba Ko, he remembered it. However, in a loud vent with pain after he was violently roar, finally put down the knife to use only the invaders. Yang Yufu is good, but also cherish life, even if it is revenge, he is not willing to take the lives of others. He put Akiba Ko, and after thinking deeply, decided to take her along, because he knew that no one could go out of Greater Khingan Range alone. In the escape process later, he experienced several times of ideological struggle, however, the nature of goodness or overcome the impulse, he did not kill the autumn leaves, but over and over again to save her, the female warrior Nadja of female students hate no less than the Northeast man, love is the son of the Japanese aircraft artillery to killing their comrades, but also because of the reason of female students touched mine, hatred that she once raised his gun to the female students, but in a stalemate for a while, she still did not start. This is always the case with good people who hate war, hate killing, and hate to show their hatred by bullets.
I was so moved by the plot: when after the defeat of Japan, the Japanese are not willing to fail, he thought that the emperor who grounds, at slaughter in the Chinese territory of Japanese nationals, see all of this, Akiba Ko felt so, despite her with deep hatred and resentment, blocking Yang Yufu and Nadja, resolutely to kill their countrymen in Japan was defeated, at the same time they shouted loudly to the “ the war is over, don't fight, we can go home!! ” however, this is in peace calls, Japan defeated also lifted the gun to her. In the sound of the shot, her peaceful garland was scattered, and a harmonious and melodious music, the musical box of the figure of the day, fell on the ground, and Akiba Ko's eyes were wide, and his eyes were still full of hope. It was these eyes that, in a split second, broke the hearts of millions of viewers; … … but the power of peace was great! At the end of the movie to purple for picture over, a symbol of the fascist aggression plan burst.
The sun is a common symbol of life, we do not allow it to cast the shadow of war, the red sun only in the common people living in the moment, will bring warmth upon the earth. So, we do not want war; the world of war is a cold-blooded world; war is a hangman who breaks the family; we should put an end to the war. Just as the film is intended to convey, let the sun of the war go down, and the peace of the sun will rise.
Let us pray together: doves fly in the sky, olive green with earth!
英文作文 篇6
假定你是某中学学生李华,给报社写一封信关于父母的收入有没有必要让孩子知道。最近,你班同学正在参加一个讨论会。本次讨论的.话题是:父母的收入有没有必要让孩子知道?请根据下表所列情况给某报社写一封信,客观地介绍一下讨论的情况。
Dear editor,
I'm writing to tell you about the discussion we recently had about whether we should know our parents' income.
We do have different opinions on this matter. About 70% of the students think we should know our parents' income for the following reasons. First, it will help us understand how hard our parents have to work after we know their income, no matter how much they earn. Second, we will study harder and will not waste money any more. Furthermore, we may also learn to share our parents' trouble.
However, about 30% of my classmates hold the opinion that it is unnecessary to let the children know how much their parents earn. Their reasons are as follows. For one thing, if they know their parents have enough money to support the family, they will not study hard. For another, if they do know, they will not worry about the future, especially when they know their parents have a relatively high income, the children will easily form a wasteful habit.
Yours
Li Hua
