美國英語作文篇1

　　Chinese Families and American Families

　　提綱

　　1。中國家庭與美國家庭的共性。

　　2。中國家庭與美國家庭的個性。

　　Both Chinese families and American families are smaller than they used to be。 Most young Chinese parents have only one child， while young Americans also prefer to have fewer children than their parents have。

　　However， unlike the Chinese young people， many young American couples think it is not easy to get along with their parents。 They will leave their parents and have their own homes once they get married。 Many of them would almost never live with their parents again。 It is a sad thing indeed。

　　Things are different in China。 Both the young and the old admit the problems between them， but they will try to understand each other。 Besides， sons and daughters in China will feel that they must take care of their old parents while old people cannot help wanting to do some thing for their busy children。 So it is still very common in today's China to see married sons and daughters living with their parents。 However， China no longer has families where four generations live under the same roof。

　　"We wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas…"Have you heard that song? Yup! It's Christmas time! This Christmas, I stayed with my "host family"1. It was an amazing experience to see how a typical American family would celebrate the biggest western festival of the year.

　　Christmas, like our Spring Festival, has a meaning in itself. Christmas Day, which is on December 25, is the birthday of Jesus Christ--the son of God. That's why it is called Christmas. On that day, Christians would get together with their families to celebrate the birthday of Jesus. But nowadays, the religious meaning of Christmas has become less emphasized. To many families, it is just a time of family reunion and the ever-exciting present-giving.

　　Our school had been on winter vacation since December 11. I stayed at my friend, Stephen Stapczynski's house--his family was my "host family". Although Christmas was still more than ten days ahead, the festive spirit had already been teeming everywhere. The Christmas tree had already been set up, and on every windowsill, there were Christmas lights. On the first day I arrived at their house, Stephen and I helped Mrs. Stapczynski put decorations on the Christmas tree. The tree looked so nice with all the lights on and the beautiful ornaments dangling from its branches.

　　As Christmas came closer, the whole neighborhood had made preparations too. Some people would hold parties at their houses, inviting all their neighbors to come. So every night, if you went out, you would see a long line of cars parked in front of some house--a party's on!

　　What's more, the Christmas decorations that some people put on their windows and in gardens were just amazing. On one night, we went out in our car for a "tour of lights". There was one street that was so famous for its lights that it got its way into the local paper. We had a hard time finding the well-hidden street, but it turned out to be worth the effort. Lights shone brightly in front of nearly every house, on trees, bushes, doors, windows…everywhere, taking different shapes, making it seem almost like daytime. Huge inflatable figures in the front gardens were waving to us: there were Santa Clauses2, of course, chuckling merrily away; and there were also other Christmas figures, like Rudolph3--the red-nosed reindeer--with his red nose gleaming ever so brightly; even Bart Simpson--a character in the famous comedy The Simpsons--had joined the jolly party, wearing a Santa's hat. The street set off a lot of "ooh"s and "aah"s inside the car.4 When we left, there was a line of cars in the street, all there to see the lights.

　　Christmas is the time for exchanging presents. Stephen and Niko had been thinking about their Christmas lists (a list of things they wish "Santa"to give them for Christmas) for a long time. I didn't want to ask for anything, but the Stapczynskis were so kind to "force"me make one list as well (Mr. Stapczynski told me if I didn't make one he would chop off my legs). So I wrote down a couple of things that I would like to have, and gave the list to them--sorry, my mistake--to Santa.

　　Finally, Christmas Eve came. There was a special Christmas service at the church at 6 p.m. It was certainly a very interesting experience for me. The priest started the service reading and sang out extractions from a holy book--The Divine Liturgy. For several times, we would stand up and pray.

　　Sometimes, the church choir would start singing. The atmosphere was very quiet and holy. Then there was a ceremony called "The Receiving Communion". People waited in line to "receive"a spoonful of food from the priest. It was a very special Christmas tradition. The food was made from bread and wine. The bread represents the body of Jesus, and the wine represents his blood. After this ceremony, the priest had a speech. He reminded us not to forget the true meaning of Christmas, and let Jesus really live inside us--that is, to love the people around us wholeheartedly. I think that no matter if you are a Christian or not, this principle should be part of our lives. After the priest finished his speech, the part that I enjoyed most came: Christmas carols5. Christmas carols are songs that people sing at Christmas, such as "Jingle Bells", "We Wish You a Merry Christmas", "Silent Night"and so on. Some were very merry, others sounded quite holy, but all of them were beautiful. I closed my eyes, and let all the peacefulness and happiness that were in the songs flow through me. What a feeling it was!

　　We went to sleep earlier that day for we had to get up early on Christmas Day to open our presents. Sure enough, when I was still half-way during a sweet dream, Stephen burst into my room and told me to get up and open presents. There were a huge pile of presents under the Christmas tree, and there was such a mysterious mist shrouding them that made me eager to see what they all were. So one by one, we went through all the presents. Mr. and Mrs. Stapczynski had bought me everything I had written on my Christmas list--and a lot more! I got music CDs, film DVDs, clothes, books… I was very happy, and I didn't know how to express my appreciation for what they had done for me.

　　Stephen and Niko had gotten a lot of presents too, and they had already been trying out their new games!

　　In the afternoon, we went to Mrs. Stapczynski's brother, Uncle Stan's house. They had prepared a marvelous meal for us. A lot of their friends and relatives also came. I saw Stephen and Niko's grandparents, Yiayia and Papou (words of grandma and grandpa in Greek--Mrs. Stapczynski's parents came from Greece, so they like the boys using Greek words to call them). They were very kind to me, and treated me just like one of their family members. We had a very luxurious meal, consisting of turkey, beef, pork, and all sorts of other food.

　　After the meal, when all the stomachs were full and everyone was feeling drowsy6 from all the food, we just sat around the table and chatted, just like what we Chinese people do at the Spring Festival. After all, Christmas, like the Spring Festival, is a time for us to get away from our busy lives, a time for family gathering, and a time to have some fun.

　　Notes:

　　1. host family: 寄住家庭或接待家庭。學校安排那些圣誕節仍留在美國的國際學生住在當地的寄住家庭中。

　　2. Santa Claus: 圣誕老人。

　　3. Rudolph: 每到圣誕節，圣誕老人乘坐馴鹿雪撬給孩子們送禮物，其中指路的馴鹿的名字叫Rudolph，它的鼻子是紅色的，所以稱其為"red-nose reindeer"。

　　4. 街上的景象使車中響起一片驚奇的聲音。set off: 激起，引起。

　　5. carol: (圣誕)頌歌。

　　6. drowsy: 困倦的。

　　The United States of America, also known as the United States, the U.S., the U.S.A., and America, is a country in North America that shares land borders with Canada and Mexico, and a sea border with Russia. Extending from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean, the United States is a federal republic, with its capital in Washington, D.C.

　　The present-day continental United States has been inhabited for at least 15,000 years by indigenous tribes. After European exploration and settlement in the 16th century, the English established their own colonies—and gained control of others that had been begun by other European nations—in the eastern portion of the continent in the 17th and early 18th centuries. On 4 July 1776, at war with Britain over fair governance, thirteen of these colonies declared their independence. In 1783, the war ended in British acceptance of the new nation. Since then, the country has more than quadrupled in size: it now consists of 50 states and one federal district; it also has numerous overseas territories.

　　At over 3.7 million square miles (over 9.5 million km), the U.S. is the third or fourth largest country by total area, depending on whether the disputed areas of China are included. It is the world's third most populous nation, with nearly 300 million people.

　　The United States has maintained a liberal democratic political system since it adopted its Articles of Confederation on 1 March 1781 and the Constitution, the Articles' replacement, on 17 September 1787. American military, economic, cultural, and political influence increased throughout the 20th century; with the collapse of the Soviet Union at the end of the Cold War, the nation emerged as the world's sole remaining superpower. Today, it plays a major role in world affairs.

　　The earliest known use of the name America is from 1507, when a globe and a large map created by the German cartographer Martin Waldseemüller in Saint-Die-des-Vosges described the combined continents of North and South America. Although the origin of the name is uncertain, the most widely held belief is that expressed in an accompanying book, Cosmographiae Introductio, which explains it as a feminized version of the Latin name of Italian explorer Amerigo Vespucci (Americus Vespucius); in Latin, the other continents' names were all feminine. Vespucci theorized, correctly, that Christopher Columbus, on reaching islands in the Caribbean Sea in 1492, had come not to India but to a "New World".

　　The Americas were also known as Columbia, after Columbus, prompting the name District of Columbia for the land set aside as the U.S. capital. Columbia remained a popular name for the United States until the early 20th century, when it fell into relative disuse; but it is still used poetically and appears in various names and titles. A female personification of the country is also called Columbia; she is similar to Britannia. Columbus Day, a holiday in the U.S. and other countries in the Americas commemorating Columbus' October 1492 landing.

　　The term "united States of America" was first used officially in the Declaration of Independence, adopted on 4 July 1776. On 15 November 1777, the Second Continental Congreadopted the Articles of Confederation, the first of which stated "The Stile of this Confederacy shall be 'The United States of America.'"

　　The adjectival and demonymic forms for the United States are American, a point of controversy among some.

　　This Thursday is Thanksgiving Day. The writer O’Henry called it the one day that is purely American. Thanksgiving is not a religious holiday. But it has ritual meaning. Some Americans attend religious services on the day before Thanksgiving or on Thanksgiving morning. Others travel long distances to be with their families. They have a large dinner which is the main part of the celebration. For many Americans, Thanksgiving is the only time when all members of the family gather. The holiday is a time of family reunion. Thanksgiving week is generally one of the busiest travel times of the year.

　　However, experts say this year probably will be different. On September 11th, thousands of people died when terrorists hijacked airplanes that struck buildings in Washington D.C. and New York City. Many people now say they are worried about flying on a plane. Travel experts say almost 6 percent fewer people will make long trips this Thanksgiving compared with last year.

　　Many Americans who usually visit family and friends by plane are driving shorter distances instead this week. Some mental health experts say the attacks have frightened people. They say people feel safer and happier close to home. More than any other holiday, Thanksgiving is a celebration of family and home. Many people say that this year they are especially thankful for their families and friends and the good things in their lives.

　　On Thanksgiving, people enjoy a long day of cooking, eating and talking. The traditional meal almost always includes the turkey with a bread mixture cooked inside. Other traditional Thanksgiving food served with turkey are sweet potatoes, cranberries and pumpkin pie. Stores are said to sell more food at Thanksgiving than at any other time of the year, and many people eat more food at Thanksgiving than at any other time of the year. Over the years, Americans have added new traditions to their Thanksgiving celebration. For example, a number off professional and university football games are played on Thanksgiving Day. Some of the games are broadcast on national television.

　　the united states covers a large part of the north american continent。 its neighbours are canada to the north， and mexico to the south。

　　美國占去北美大陸很大一部分土地。它北鄰加拿大，南接墨西哥。

　　這片土地剛從英國獨立出來，成為一個國家的時候，只有十三個州，每個州在美國國旗上由一顆星來代表。這些州都在東部。當這個國家不斷向西擴大，就增加了新的州，同時它們也出現在國旗上。很長一段時間，美國有48個州，可是，到1959年，國旗上又多了兩顆星，分別代表阿拉斯加和夏威夷。

　　印地安人是如今叫做美國的這塊土地上的最初居民。現在在全國各地仍然居住著許多這些原始居民的后裔。有時人們說印安人才是“真正的美國人”。

　　不過，大部分美國人是來自世界各地要在這個新世界里對找新生活的人的后代。那些最早大批來到北美東海岸建立家園的人大部來自英格蘭，也是由于這個原因，美國的國語為英語，而它的文化習俗也與英國的更為相像。

　　今年2月下旬，我以一名學生的身份，隨學校的訪問團在美國參觀交流了兩個星期。在此期間，我領略了美國的繁華，參加了不少有意義的活動，并有幸同美國學生一起度過了數天愉快的學校生活。其中，有這么一堂外語課給我留下的印象最深。

　　那是在美國Lakeside School所上的第一堂課，它無疑是一堂地道的英語課，但同時也是一堂奇特的英語課。

　　教室的模樣很特別，乍一看，實在不像個教室，反而像一個小會議廳。十多個學生圍坐在圓桌旁，各做各的一份兒事，有聊天的，有看書的，還有吃“早點”的。不時地看一下教室上方的大掛鐘，還有兩分鐘就要上課了。趁著這段時間，我環視了教室的四壁，上邊貼滿了彩圖。自己畫的吧!不太漂亮，，大都是抽象的。這樣的情景似乎十幾年前在幼兒園中見到過，這個教室確實使我感到自由、愉快和奇特。

　　掛鐘上的“鳥”叫了，這大概是他們的鈴聲。學生們停止了閑聊，收起了閑書，加快了進餐速度，好像等待著老師的到來。我把注意力集中到了教室的正門，設想著一個白發碧眼的老年婦女或是一個卷發高個的中年男子走進門來。"Class begins.”聲音是從我的身旁傳來的。一個年輕的姑娘站立起來，圍著圓桌走了一圈兒。學生們都將注意力集中在了她的身上。“難道這個漂亮的年輕姑娘竟是他們的老師?”我想。事實確是如此，她“嘰哩呱啦”地講著話，一雙天藍的眼睛在兩條活潑跳動的眉毛的襯托下，顯得格外有神。我不太明白她說些什么，但不難看出她正是該英語班的老師。上身穿著一件白色T恤，下身是西部美國人最傳統的'牛仔褲，一副學生打扮，好不精神。她手中沒有拿書，也沒有拿筆，取而代之的是一杯咖啡。同學們似乎也沒什么教材，當然不會看書，都抬頭望著眉飛色舞的老師，聽著她所說的，高興了還插上幾句，或者一陣大笑�？赡苁且驗檎Z言障礙吧，我不太懂他們笑些什么，大概他們在談論一本書，好像這本書是老師昨晚剛看過的，也不知道學生們到底看過這本書沒有，一個個都顯得特別積極，似乎每人都是評論家一般，爭先恐后地發表著自己對該書的看法。學生討論的時候是無需舉手的，你大可以隨時隨地地發言。只有當老師在做小結的時候，要發言的同學才必須先舉手。出乎意料，學生間的討論竟是這般的熱烈。一人話音朱落，另一個又將

　　Recently watching American TV Dramas has become more and more popular with youth in our country. There are various kinds of reasons. Generally speaking, TV Dramas are suitable for the psychology of youth. The network technology will be developed as well at the same time. What’s more, it can make our spoken English well. Every coin has two sides, but it shows off a humanism, and spreads bad influences such as violence, etc.

　　I think the positive influences are more important than negative ones.

　　First of all, a number of American TV Dramas express duty, family, freedom, justice and love concept. It’s useful to develop youth’s recessive education. Only in this way will TV Dramas play a positive part and make up for shortcomings in political education. Next, it can broaden our eyes and knowledge and make us know what is different from home and abroad. With this method, we can know the western society. We’ll be affected by different culture ambience and ideology concept. Under the background of the whole world, knowing the cultures of western countries can promote each country’s communications well. In addition, In this process, TV Dramas play a role of bridge. Then, it will develop independent personality. America uphold particular concept and suggest their educational productions. Youth is the most energetic generation, encourages people show off personality and dares to break the outmoded conventions. It’s the prerequisite of innovation.

　　Finally, TV Dramas also help you face reality and surmount ideality. Nowadays, some youth always depend on others, such as their parents or friends. They also have idealism and is extremely conceited or inferiority. They often don’t find themselves in society, due to the influences of life education environment.

　　By this we can make a conclusion. No matter how hard it will be, we should always be free and try our best to conquer the enemy, just like the actors in the film. Another thing we have to remember is the great development of China. TV Dramas’ productions suggest the culture and psychological state of the country from some kinds of degree. It can promote our country’s economic development. Watching TV Dramas is a way to follow fashion. Therefore, everyone should work hard to make our country stronger and stronger. Through American TV Dramas, we should strengthen our duty and proud of our country. Let’s work together!

　　最近看美國電視劇已經在我國青年中越來越受歡迎。有各種各樣的原因。一般來說，電視劇合適青少年的心理。同時，網絡技術將被發展起來。更重要的是，它可以使我們的英語口語變好。每個硬幣都有兩面，但它顯示了一個人文主義，和傳播的不良影響如暴力，等。

　　我認為積極的影響比消極的影響更重要。

　　首先，美國一些電視劇表達的責任，家庭，自由，正義和愛的概念。培養青年的隱性教育是有用的。只有這樣，電視劇中扮演一個積極的角色，彌補政治教育的不足。其次，它能開闊我們的視野和知識使我們知道，國內外不同的是什么。用這種方法，我們可以了解西方社會。我們會受到不同的文化氛圍和意識形態概念。在全世界的背景下，了解西方國家的文化可以促進各個國家的通訊。此外，在這一過程中，電視劇起到了橋梁作用。然后，它會培養獨立人格。美國堅持特定的概念，建議他們的教育成果。青春是最充滿活力的一代，鼓勵人們展示個性，敢于打破陳規。這是創新的前提。

　　最后，電視劇也幫助你面對現實和超越的理想。如今，一些青少年總是依賴別人，如父母或朋友。他們也有理想主義和極其自負或自卑感。他們經常不能在社會中找到自己，因為生活教育環境的影響。

　　因此我們可以得出結論。不管有多難，我們都應該是自由的，盡我們最大的努力去征服敵人，就像電影中的演員。另一件我們需要記住的是，中國經濟的巨大發展。電視劇作品從某種程度上表明了這個國家的文化和心理狀態。它可以促進我國經濟的發展�？措娨晞∈且宦纷冯S時尚。因此，每個人都應該努力使我們的國家越來越強大。通過美國的電視劇，我們應該加強我們的義務，讓我們一起工作讓我們的國家感到自豪。！
