话题英语作文(一):
The column chart above illustrates the online shopping transactions and the growth rate in China from 20xx to 20xx. During the period, there was a dramatic increase from 0.6 billion in 20xx to 125 billion in 20xx in the transaction. Meanwhile, the growth rate decreased from 200% to 110.4 percent, a decline of about 90%.
While online shopping is not without its risks, it offers an excellent alternative to traditional shopping for people. The first reason that e-shopping is so appealing is its relative ease and convenience. For conscientious students with hectic schedules, purchasing items on eBay or Taobao.com is an excellent way to free up valuable time for their studies. The second advantage of online shopping is that it is available 24/7. Being able to shop at any and all hours of the day is not only conducive to the late nights associated with the modern lifestyle, but also means that people no longer have to plan their activities around stores’ opening hours.
Despite the advantages to peoples of making purchases online, there are also a few caveats that young people should bear in mind. Firstly, the speed and convenience of e-shopping many encourage frivolous or unnecessary spending by inducing people to buy more than they had initially intended. Secondly, there is a chance that those people who are already introverted may become even more alienated from the outside world.
参考译文
上述柱状图揭示了20xx至20xx年中国网购交易额和增长率。在此期间,在交易额方面,从20xx年的6亿元急剧增长到20xx年的1250亿元。同时,增长率从200%下降到110.4%,下降了90%。
尽管网上购物并非零风险,但它相对于传统的购物方式,为人们提供了一个极好的选择。网上购物如此吸引人们的第一个原因就是,它相对地容易和方便。对于有繁忙时间表的细心同学而言,在易趣和淘宝网上购物是一个非常好的方式,可以省下很多学习时间。网购的第二个好处就是购物没有任何时间限制。在一天任何时候都可以买东西,不但对有晚睡习惯的人们有好处,而且也意味着人们不再必须按照商店营业时间来计划自己的活动了。
尽管人们在网上购物有很多好处,但年轻人也应该在心里记住几点忠告。首先,网购的快速和方便也常诱导人们很轻率地购买比预计要多得多的不需要的东西。其次,那些本来内向的人们甚至会与外面的世界更加疏远。

Telling Lies
Telling lies is usually looked upon as an evil, because some people try to get benefit from dishonest means or try to conceal their faults.
However,_I_thinkdespitejits_neg1ative_effects,jsometimes_itjisjessentialto iemigsinour_dailylifei First, the liar may benefit from the lie by escaping from the pressure of unnecessary embarrassment. Meanwhile, the listener may also feel more comfortable by reasonable excuses. For example, if a little girl’s father died in an accident, her mother would comfort her by saying “farther has gone to another beautiful land”. In such cases, a lie with original goodwill can make the cruel nice. Second^thejsk^lsjofJtellingJlies^jtojsome extent,canbe_regard_asja_capacity_ofcreationandjimagination.

说谎
说谎通常被视为罪恶,因为一些人试图通过不诚实的手段或对自身 缺点的掩盖,从而获利。
然而,我认为尽管有其消极影响,但有时在我们的日常生活中,说 谎是不可避免的。首先,说谎者能借谎言免去一些不必要的尴尬所带来 的压力。同时,听众也会因合理的借口而感到更加自在。例如,如果一 个小女孩的父亲在一次意外中丧身,她的母亲就会安慰她说:“爸爸去 了另一个美丽的世界。”在这样的例子中,善意的谎言能化残酷为美好。 其次,说谎的技巧从某种程度而言可被视为一种创造力和想象力。
因此,综上所述,我们能够得出结论:谎言是否有害,这取决于它 的意图以及最终带来的后果。
话题英语作文(三):
小学的时候,我们便开始接触英语了,可当时只是作为一门学科并不列入 考试的范围内,所以当时我也就没有太在意,每到上英语课的时候,我不是在写作业就是在和同学窃窃私语。可是到了初中,就打不可同了。
刚开始的时候老师只是讲一些简单的英语对话句子和认识26个字母,这并没有难倒我,我很快就明白了,可是随着随着时间的推移,我没学习的难度在逐步增加,我开始觉得有些吃力了,仿佛跟不上同学们的学习进度,脱离了队伍。李老师常对我们说英语学习很简单,只要我们找到合适自己的方法,上可认真听课就足够了。听起来看似很简单,非也非也,我按照老师说的那样去做的,上课认真听课,认真做笔记,做到课前预习课后复习,但结果没有多大的进展,依旧是在原地踏步,但我仍灰心,不断更改自己的学习方法,寻找属于自己的,适合自己的。可是一学期两学期仍是如此,每次考试总是在110至125分之内,我的意志力被摧残,被逐渐腐蚀。有时我想放弃,可最后仍是在努力着,希望会出现奇迹。
如今我已是初三的学生了,正处于初中学习的最后冲刺阶段,我要求自己的英语成绩可以保持在130分左右,但事实上我连上130分都没有几次。我有时在想我们为什么要学习英语呢?学习英语到底有何用处呢?我经常为此事儿不解。在偶然的一天我和妈妈正在看新闻,据新闻报道英语8级以上刚毕业的大学生就业率很高,此刻我才第一次意识到英语的重要性。又恢复了以前的激情信心倍增。虽说成绩只是一点点的进步,但是总比停滞不前要好吧,要乐观的面对我们的生活。
我不再为英语而惆怅,唯有学好英语才有可能有所作为,才可以振兴家族。现在开始为时不晚。
