小木船的初中英语作文
Before I go to middle school, I stayed in the hometown with my grandparents, and I had a good time there. My hometown was a small village. The scenery was very beautiful. There were green trees and clean water around. A small river was near my house. I liked to play games with my friends. Sometimes we caught fish, but we liked to stay in the little wooden boat most. It was a wasted boat and was fixed in the river side. Many kids would play in the boat. We imagined ourselves as the pirates, sailing in the big sea and searching for the treasures.

I am very happy today.
Today I have received the highest honour as I obtained full mark and finally beat Xiaoming in the English test.I have been famous for my ability of studying English and eventually I showed my true power today.Those people who are gossiping behind my back should shut up now.
After school,when I went home, I found a hundred dollar notes.Somebody must have been careless and dropped them.Since this is a deserted road,I would not bother returning the money as I had nowhere to go to.
Then,I helped a blind uncle crossing the road.
I feel that I am really delighted.
Some of theanimals and birds in the rainforest, such as monkeys and woodpeckers, livein the treetops.
They are always swinging and flying from one tree to anotherlooking for food among the leaves and branches.
They even sleep in the treetops sothey do not have to come down to the ground.
Have you heardthat such animals and birds in the rainforests are in danger?
Because people arecutting down so many trees in the forests, the animals are
losing theirhomes.
Do you know the reasons for it? Yes, people want wood, paper and land. As aresult many animals and plants are dying.
Some forests are so
badly damaged thatthey become deserts.

你知道吗?雨林中的这些动物正处于危险中.
因为人们砍伐了森林中的许多树,动物们失去了家园.你知道人们砍树的原因吗?是的,人们需要木材、纸和土地.
所以,许多动物和植物正在消亡.一些森林遭到了严重的破坏,变成了沙漠.

I have this friendwho always seemed to lean slightly to the left all the time.
It used to botherme, so I suggested he see a doctor, and have his legs checked out.
For years,he refused and told me I was crazy, but last week, he finally went.
Sureenough, the doctor discovered his left leg was a quarter inch shorter than hisright. A quick bit of surgery later, he was cured, and both legs are exactlythe same length now, and he no longer leans. “So,”I said, “You didn'tbelieve me when I told you a doctor could fix your leg.
He just looked at meand said, ”I stand corrected.

一个很快的小手术后,他康复了,现在他的两条腿完全一样长了,他也不再倾斜了.“你看,”我说,“那时我告诉你医生可以治好你的腿时你还不相信我呢.”他看着我说：“我认错了.”
A mountain was once greatly agitated（焦虑，鼓动）.

Many many years ago, in the State of Song, there was a city gate. Outside the gate was a moat with fishes that lived a quiet and happy life there.
One day the tower above the city gate caught fire and the people of the city were alarmed. Even the fishes in the moat could hear the gone.
“What's the noise about?” the fishes wondered. “I must go and find out,” said one curious black carp. When he saw the tower on fire, he hurried back to tell his mates1. “Swim all you could! Swim all you could! Swim for life!” He cried to his fellow-fishes. “The city gate is burning!”
So all the fishes except the carps started to swim away. One arrogant2 carp even laughed at the other fishes. “Don't laugh,” said the kind black carp. “You really ought to swim away, too, in good time.”
“Why should I?” asked the arrogant carp. “It's only their city gate on fire, what's it got to do with me in the water?” The fire spread very fast and the firemen had used up all the water in the city. But it was still burning. So they fetched waster from the moat.
At long last, the fire was put out, but the moat had also gone dry, leaving a few sorry carps in their dying3 struggle. This tale likens the city gate fire to disasters that do not seem to concern us but that can spread and involve even the innocent4.
很久很久以前，宋国有一座城池。城外有一条河，河中的'鱼群生活的十分安定愉快。
有一天，城楼失火了，火警的钟声穿到了水中。
“为什么这么吵闹呢？”一条鱼问道，“我们得去看看！”好奇的青鱼已经先游去去查看了，当它看到城楼失火时，他急忙回来告诉他的同伴，“着火了，城楼失火了，快点叫他们逃命吧！”
所有的鱼都逃命去了，只有一条鲤鱼在嘲笑他们。青鱼对他说：“还不快逃命，还在这里笑什么？”
“我为什么要逃，城楼失火了又不会蔓延到水中，我为什么要走呢？”鲤鱼回答。城中的水很快就用完了，火还没有扑灭，于是，人们都来护城河中取水救火。
火终于扑灭了，可是河也干涸了，只余下几条可怜的鲤鱼在河床上作垂死的挣扎。城门失火比喻因牵连而受祸害或损失。
The rumor1 proved all too bitterly true: Park's Hardware, a downtown institution of Orono, Maine, since 1898, would be closing.
Word spread quickly. Locals cajoled, cross-examined, and pleaded with Lin, the owner of the store, to no avail. Running a small, local, family-owned hardware business was no longer a profitmaker2. The town's affection for Park's Hardware was just not enough to allow it to prevail against the giant warehouse3 stores that loomed4, discount-laden, down the road in Bangor.
I was one member of the milling masses that began to filter through Park's as, day by day, the wax lettering on the front window changed from “20% OFF EVERYTHING” to “30%,” “40%,” and on and on, like the death of a thousand cuts until the only things left were the light sockets5and doorknobs.
It's a difficult thing to see a hardware store go. A hardware store is special because it sells the things that allow us to indulge our tinkering habits, can-do-it-ness, and creativity, and in the process improve our immediate6 surroundings to suit our tastes. There are few things more satisfying than a new coat of paint on a weary wall, or a new lock set requiring only the knowledge of how to spin a screwdriver7. From such a small investment of cash and time, a hardware store affords one a wholesale8 return of satisfaction.
The cynic might argue that one can accomplish the same end by shopping at the big-boxwarehouses9 whose footprints are measured not in square feet, but acres. Well, maybe sometimes, but certainly not always. And the likelihood of feeling forsaken10 in such a wasteland is high.
I recall the time I was rummaging11 in one of the aisles12 of a Bangor hardwarefortress13 for a wireless14 door chime that Park's didn't carry. I found the thing, but didn't understand the following gloss15 on the package: “Red light indicates condition of battery.” Ispotted16 a clerk in a brightly colored apron17.
“Excuse me,” I said, holding the item out, “I can't seem to find the red light.” The man took the package, examined it, and, plopping it back in my hand, said, “Neither can I,” before he walked away. I contrast this experience with one I routinely had at Park's, in which I would walk into the store holding a pile of arcane-looking metal and plastic pieces in my cupped hands.
“Lin,” I'd plead as I held out the offering before him, “can you ... please ... I don't know ... do you think...?” And quicker than one could say, “little red light,” Lin would spring into action and together we'd voyage off into one of the eclectic recesses18 of the store to mix and match and measure until the solution precipitated19 before my eyes like a genie20 emerging from a lamp.
Was it more expensive to shop at Park's as opposed to a warehouse? In one way, yes -- if I intended to buy a big-ticket item like a snowblower or chain saw. But otherwise, no: I could buy a single screw at Park's, and have it lovingly deposited in a little bag, for a nickel -- no charge for the accompanying pleasant conversation.
At a warehouse I had no choice but to buy a box of a hundred screws, and, if I were fortunate, receive at the cash register the stock admonition: “Have a nice day.”
But I don't want to be directed to have a nice day. Nor do I want a box of a hundred screws when all I need is one, nor told to wait because an “associate” would be with me shortly. I just want to know the location of the little red light, and now that Park's is gone, I realize that I never will.
My mom only had one eye.I hated her. She was such an embarrassment1.
She ran a small shop at a flea2 market and collected old clothes and some other things to sell for the money we needed. Once during elementary school, it was field day, and my mom came.I was so embarrassed and wondered how could she do this to me?I threw her a hateful look and ran out. The next day at school, my schoolmates asked me, “your mom only has one eye?!” andtaunted3 me.
I was so angry with my mom and wished that she would just disappear from this world. So I said to my mom, “Why don't you have the other eye?! If you're only gonna make me a laughingstock!” My mon did not respond, I guess I felt a little bad, but at the same time, I felt so good to have had said what I wanted to say. Maybe it was because my mom hadn't punished me, I didn't think that I had hurt her feelings very badly.
For the words I had said to her earlier,there was something pinching5 at me in the corner of my heart. Even so, I hated my one-eyed mom and our desperate poverty. I told myself that I would become successful in the near future, so I studied very hard. Later I got accepted by the Seoul University, I left my mother and came to Seoul to study. Then I got married there.
I bought a house of my own. Then I had kids, too. Now I am living happily as a successful man. I enjoy the life in Seoul because it's a place that doesn't remind me of my mom and my past. This kind of happiness was getting bigger and bigger, until one day someone knocked at my door. It was my mom! And still with her one eye! It felt as if the whole sky was falling apart on me. My little girl ran away, scared of my mom's eye.
I screamed at her, “Who are you? I don't know you! How dare you come to my house and scare my daughter!” To this, my mom quietly answered, “Oh, I'm so sorry. I may have gotten the wrong address,” and she disappeared out of sight.
One day, a letter regarding6 a school reunion came to my house. Lying to my wife that I was going on a business trip, I went back to participate in the reunion. After the reunion, I went down to the old shack7, which I used to call a house, just out of curiosity8. There I found my mom fallen on the cold ground. I did not shed4 a single tear.
Then a piece of paper in her hand came into my eyes. It was a letter to me.
My son,
I think my life has been long enough now, and I won't visit Seoul anymore. But would it be too much to ask if I wanted you to come to visit me once in a while? I miss you so much. And I was so glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion. But I decided9 not to go to the school…for you. I'm so sorry that I only have one eye, and I was an embarrassment for you.
You see, when you were very little, you got into an accident and lost your eye. As a mom, I couldn't stand watching you having to grow up with only one eye. So I gave you mine. I was so proud of my son to see a whole new world for me with that eye. I was never upset at you for anything you did. During the couple of times that you were angry with me, I thought to myself, it's because he loves me.
My son…oh, my son…
Don't cry for me because of my death. I love you so much.
Rob is a commercial saturation1 diver for Global Divers2 in Louisiana. He performs underwater repairs on offshore3 drilling rigs.
Below is an e-mail he sent to his sister. She then sent it to radio station 103.2 FM in Ft. Wayne, Indiana, who was sponsoring a worst job experience contest. Needless to say, she won:
Hi Sue,
Just another note from your bottom-dwelling brother.
Last week I had a bad day at the office. I know you've been feeling down lately at work, so I thought I would share my dilemma4 with you to make you realize it's not so bad after all .
Before I can tell you what happened to me, I first must bore you with a few technicalities of my job.
As you know, my office lies at the bottom of the sea. I wear a suit to the office. It's a wet suit.
This time of year the water is quite cool. So what we do to keep warm is this: We have adiesel5 powered industrial water heater. This $20,000 piece of equipment that sucks the water out of the sea. It heats it to a delightful6 temperature. It then pumps it down to the diver through a garden hose, which is taped to the air hose.
Now, this all sounds like a darn good plan, and I've used it several times with no complaints.
What I do when I get to the bottom and start working, is take the hose and stuff it down the back of my wet suit. This floods my whole suit with warm water. It's fantastic...it's like working in a Jacuzzi.
Everything was going well until all of a sudden, my butt7 started to itch8. So, of course, I scratched it. This, of course, only made things worse. Within a few seconds my bottom started to feel a burning sensation. I pulled the hose out from my back, thinking that maybe the water was too hot, but the damage was done.
In agony, I realized what had happened.
The hot water machine had sucked up a jellyfish and pumped it directly into my suit. Now, since I don't have any hair on my back, so the jellyfish couldn't stick to it. However, the crack of my butt was not as fortunate.
When I had scratched what I thought was an itch, I was actually grinding the jellyfish, and all of its poisonous, stinging tentacles9, into the crack of my bottom.
I immediately informed the dive supervisor10 of my dilemma over the communicator. His instructions were unclear due to the fact that he, along with five other divers, were all laughinghysterically11.
Needless to say, I aborted12 the dive. I was instructed to make three agonizing13 in-water decompression stops totaling thirty-five minutes before I could reach the surface to begin mychamber14 dry decompression. When I arrived at the surface, I was wearing nothing but mybrass15 helmet.
As I climbed out of the water, the medic, with tears of laughter running down his face, handed me a tube of cream and told me to rub it on my butt as soon as I got in the chamber.
The cream put the fire out, but I couldn't poop for two days because my bottom wasswollen16 shut.
So, next time you're having a bad day at work, think about how much worse it would be if you had a jellyfish shoved up your bottom.
Now repeat to yourself, “I love my job, I love my job, I love my job.”
Now whenever you have a bad day, ask yourself, is this a jellyfish bad day?
May you NEVER have a jellyfish bad day.

When I was a child, I once went camping with my family in the summer. We decided to make a barbecue in the valley. So we collected some tree sticks to make a fire. My father asked me if I could try to make a fire. I was glad to take the job. Then I tried to set fire to the wood with a match, but produced only smoke. Then my father said, “That's not the right way. I'll show you how to do it. First use the small pieces of wood because they catch fire easily. Then put the larger ones on top of them.”My father helped me make a big fire.

Then she tried to imitate. While I closed one eye to wink, she had to close both eyes at time same time and quickly opened them again. And that was her way to wink.
We all began to laugh. When we looked at her again,she was looking at us, puzzled, as if she was asking, ”What are you laugghing at?
An old woman had a cat. The cat was very old; she could not run quickly, and she could not bite, because she was so old. One day the old cat saw a mouse; she jumped and caught the mouse.
But she could not bite it; so the mouse got out of her mouth and ran away, because the cat could not bite it.
Then the old woman became very angry because the cat had not killed the mouse.
She began to hit the cat. The cat said, “Do not hit your old servant. I have worked for you for many years, and I would work for you still, but I am too old. Do not be unkind to the old, but remember what good work the old did when they were young.”
Once there were two mice. They were friends. One mouse lived in the country;
the other mouse lived in the city. After many years the Country mouse saw the City mouse; he said, “Do come and see me at my house in the country.” So the City mouse went.
The City mouse said, “This food is not good, and your house is not good. Why do you live in a hole in the field? You should come and live in the city.
You would live in a nice house made of stone. You would have nice food to eat. You must come and see me at my house in the city.”
The Country mouse went to the house of the City mouse. It was a very good house. Nice food was set ready for them to eat. But just as they began to eat they heard a great noise.
The City mouse cried, “ Run! Run! The cat is coming!” They ran away quickly and hid.
After some time they came out. When they came out, the Country mouse said, “I do not like living in the city. I like living in my hole in the field. For it is nicer to be poor and happy, than to be rich and afraid.”

一、课题研究的背景：
中学英语教学的任务是通过对学生听、说、读、写的训练，使学生掌握一定的语言基本知识和基本技能，并初步具有运用英语进行交际的能力。其中，英语词汇是我们进行基本训练的重要内容之一。随着二期课改的不断深入，新目标教材的普遍使用，词汇教学更是困难重重。新目标初中英语词汇量大，其中七年级上册有词汇700个左右，下册约450个，八年级上册约450个，下册约400个，九年级全册约500个，合计2500个。新目标教材的生词量大，呈现则不拘一格，大多都隐藏在课文中，学生不易察觉。因此对于刚进入中学的学生，特别是小学英语学习没过关的学生来说，词汇学习成了英语学习的最大障碍，而且在很大程度上会影响学生学习的积极性和信心，自然这些也就增加了教学的难度。预备年级时，区抽测结果有一半多的学生不及格，有些甚至只有十几分，两极分化严重，学生觉得难学，老师也觉得难教。
二、研究目的和意义：
为了进一步提高学生的素质和能力，激发和培养学生的学习兴趣，使学生更加重视英语词汇学习，从而获得较强的英语交际能力，适应现代社会的需要。
（一）检查学生学习英语的情况，以及运用英语进行交际的能力，加深对学生的了解，从中发现问题，改进教学，提高教学效果。
（二）以培养能力提高全面素质为目标，促进学生创造思维的培养和学生的非智力因素的和谐发展。增强学生的互相了解，互相帮助，具有良好的群体合作精神和健康的心理素质。
（三）通过让学生参与英语学习，使他们感受到学习成功的喜悦，并激发他们积极参与课堂的学习和课外活动，树立起能学好英语的自信心。
三、课题研究的依据：
英语作为一门外语，跨文化交际的工具是它的重要功能之一。加强词汇教学的策略研究是当前中学英语课改的要求之一。国家教育部颁布的《英语课程标准》明确指出：“语言技能是构成语言交际能力的重要组成部分。语言技能包括听、说、读、写四个方面以及这四种技能的综合运用能力。”有研究表明：词汇水平对英语写作有直接影响，高水平的英语写作者都掌握了大量的英语词汇；学生掌握词汇量的多少与阅读速度成正比，词汇量越大，阅读中遇到的生词越少，理解程度就越高，反之亦然。
词汇的习得（无论是母语还是第二语言）是一个终身的认知过程，没有人能掌握英语或汉语的全部词汇；但习得足够多的词汇是语言问题的核心。因此，对于一个英语学习者来说，扩大语言词汇量是永无止境的。
四、课题研究的内容及预期目标：
1、研究的内容
①平时加强阅读，尤其是要保证一定量的英语阅读，在吸收各方面知识的同时，加强对英语词汇的感性认识；
②勤于思考，学会构思，心中有谱；经常做“脑部体操”，即我们平时常说的“头脑风暴”。
③做日常生活的有心人，勤于思考。
2、研究预期目标：
词汇是基础中的基础，不论是传统的还是显示流行的词汇教学手段都是为了让学生能够扩大词汇量。词汇学习是英语学习的一个重要组成部分。离开了有效的词汇学习，语言知识的掌握便无从谈起，实际能力的培养也必将成为无源之水，英语教学也就无效益可言。因此，词汇教学的目标是使学生牢固地掌握它们，并教学生如何将词汇运用到实际生活中。
五、研究措施及方法：
1.形音结合
教师要教会学生一些基本的语音规则及运用读音规则记忆单词的拼法。“多数单词的拼写都是符合读音规则的……只要把单词读准了，根据读音规则就可以把单词拼正确”（程世禄等，1996：93）。因此，能准确拼读单词，往往就可以记住单词的拼写形式，即做到发言正确，以形发音，以音记形。这样就能比较牢固地记住单词的拼写形式。
2.运用记忆规则减少遗忘
艾宾浩斯的遗忘曲线，表明了遗忘发展的一条规则：遗忘进程并不是均衡的，在识记的最初时间遗忘很快，后来逐渐缓慢，到一定的时间，几乎不再遗忘”（朱纯，1994：210）。因此，对刚学过的词汇应及时不断重现，不断加深学生对词汇的进一步理解，并在运用中强化记忆，而不应等到已经遗忘后再来追忆或重新学习。
3.列表记忆
列表这个形式可用来对单词进行分类记忆，不一定画表格。分类可按主题内容把单词分成若干类，如：卧室用具、起居室、亲戚名称、人体部位名称、文具名称、交通工具名称、动物名称等等。这些词有些有某种联系，由一个会联想到另一个。
4.加大阅读量，提高单词重现率
单词必须经过多次重现，才能记住。阅读是最有效的语言输入途径之一。学生通过阅读能在具体的语篇环境中接触更多的词汇，增大输入量，重新与学过的词汇见面，再一次加深记忆，同时，这也是对词汇的一种运用过程。新课程倡导培养学生用语言做事的能力，因此，在阅读过程中，教师应指导学生借助语境推测掌握词的真正含义。
5.以旧带新
这是一种广泛的联想，在已有知识上建立新的知识。随着学生词汇量的增多，有可能利用构词法分析讲解新词的意义。这种方法可以使学生自然地理解词义，借助构词法知识记忆单词，同时还可培养学生分析语言的能力。例如，由已认识的单词组成的复合词，利用词根、词缀组成的新词等。在记单词过程中，“以旧带新”起很大作用，它可以扩大学生的词汇量，旧的越多，新的越容易建立起来。
六、国内外关于同类课题的综述：
《全日制义务教育中学英语课程标准》对初中英语词汇教学的要求是，“学会使用1500～1600个单词和200～300个习惯用语或固定搭配……。因此可见，词汇教学是初中英语教学的重点。可见，要学好英语，就应熟练掌握和正确使用相当数量的词汇。教师在教学中经常听到学生说，学习英语最大的困难就是记单词，单词容易忘记。显然，词汇量的限制已成为学生学习的障碍。因此，如何突破英语词汇学习的难关便成为初中英语教学的关键。寻求一个有效地帮助学生记忆英语单词以扩大词汇量的方法，一直是英语教师研究的课题。
