Elias cared for his family, but it wasn’t easy being his son.In 1906, the Disney family moved to Missouri and the children were all excited to live on a farm. Evenfive-year-old Walt had duty on the farm. His job was to watch out for the pigs and make sure they didn’t get into trouble. One of the pigs seemed to like Walt.

They may call both the people theymeet once or twice and their close companions (伙伴) “friends". Their friendship depends on the same interests. When their same interests become different, the friendship may disappear（消失）.In some culture, a friendship means a strong helpful feeling between two persons.The friendship is developed slowly and lasts long. However, American people thinktime is money. Studies show that one out of five American families moves every year. American friendships develop quickly, and they may break up quickly, too. Americansoften chat easily with strangers and people from the United States may at first seemfriendly to someone when they need his or her help, so an American friendship is not a true one.Learning how Americans think of a friendship can stop people from other countries making mistakes. It can also help them know how to make friends with Americans. 根据短文内容，判断正(T)误(F)。

The most important of the celebration is a traditional dinner with food that comes from North America.

She faced one question after another over whether she has taken performance-enhancing drugs. At a press conference after she won, she said she agreed with Jiang Zhixue, who earlier in the day told the reporter that some people were biased (有偏见) against Chinese swimmers. He said, “We never questioned Michael Phelps when he won eight gold medals in Beijing. I think it is not right to complain about Chinese swimmers once they have good results. Somepeople are just too jealous.”The 16-year-old Chinese swimmer has been doubted, but the strong-minded girl insisted that she had never taken performance-enhancing drugs. Ye is smaller than most swimmers at her level but has never failed any drug test, and the Olympic organizers spent much of the day defending her, saying all the doubts were “crazy" and "full of jealousy". Sports officials and fans in China have reacted angrily to confusing suggestions by a US swimming coach.()1. Ye Shiwen is a(n) ________.A. American runnerB. British golferC. Chinese swimmerD.

Some children spend six hours a day in school and four to six hours a day in front of the television set. Some even watch television for eight hours or more on Sunday.Televisions are like books or films. A child can learn bad things and good things from them. Some shows help children to understand the news and places from other countries or other times in history. With television a child does not have to go to the zoo to see animals or to the ocean to see a ship. Boys and girls can see a play, a concert or a game at home.Television brings many places and events into our homes. Some programs show crime and other things that are bad for children, so parents sometimes help them find other interesting things to do.()1.

That was just the sound of coins！” said the restaurant owner.“The sound of the coins is the payment for the steam of the soup，” answered the judge. “Now go back to your restaurant.”()1.

人教版英语八下第五单元3b作文

人教版英语八下第五单元3b作文英文回答：I think learning a foreign language is very important. It helps us communicate with people from different countries and cultures. For example, I have a friend from France. We can only communicate in English because I don't know French. But if I learn French, we can have more meaningful conversations and understand each other better. Learning a foreign language also opens up moreopportunities for us. Many companies now require employees who can speak multiple languages. If we can speak a foreign language, we can have a better chance of getting a good job in the future.中文回答：我认为学习一门外语非常重要。

它可以帮助我们与来自不同国家和文化的人交流。

例如，我有一个来自法国的朋友。

我们只能用英语交流，因为我不会法语。

但是如果我学会了法语，我们可以有更有意义的对话，更好地理解彼此。

学习一门外语还可以为我们打开更多的机会。

许多公司现在要求员工会说多种语言。

如果我们能说一门外语，我们将来就有更好的机会找到一份好工作。

人教版八年级下册第五单元英语作文

人教版八年级下册第五单元英语作文My Dream JobI'm an 8th grader now, and like many kids my age, I've been thinking a lot about what I want to be when I grow up. There are so many possibilities out there, and it's both exciting and a little scary to think about! After giving it a lot of thought, I've decided that my dream job would be to become a video game designer.Ever since I was a little kid, I've loved playing video games. Some of my earliest memories are of sitting on the floor in front of our old TV, clutching a controller and trying to guide my character through different worlds and challenges. Video games have always felt like portals into magical realms where anything is possible. With the rise of online multiplayer games, they've also become a way for me to connect with friends from all over the world.What I find most fascinating about video games though is the incredible creativity and technical skill that goes into designing them. To make a great game, you need to craft an entire universe from scratch - developing detailed characters, building immersive environments, coding the underlying mechanics that govern how the game works. It's like being anauthor, artist, architect, and programmer all rolled into one! The best games suck you in with gripping storylines, eye-popping visuals, and innovative gameplay that keeps you hooked for hours on end.I think I'd really thrive as a video game designer because I have an extremely vivid imagination. My parents are always laughing at the elaborate fantasy worlds and adventures I constantly have playing out in my head. In class, I'll often start daydreaming about wild ideas for new games rather than paying attention to the lesson. I've filled up countless notebooks with pages of doodles, sketches of different characters and creatures, level designs scribbled in the margins. I even taught myself some basic coding so I could start experimenting with building simple games on my own.Creating video games would allow me to channel all of that creative energy into something amazing that could bring joy to millions of people across the globe. I could pour my passion for art, storytelling, and problem-solving into crafting experiences that transport people into realms beyond their wildest dreams. And with the gaming industry continuing to soar in popularity, becoming a designer would set me up for an extremely lucrative and fulfilling career doing what I love.The work can be grueling too, with insane crunch periods where you're expected to pull all-nighters for weeks on end as you scramble to meet deadlines. Games frequently get delayed, over-budget, or scrapped entirely after years of development if they aren't shaping up well. So much investment of time, money, and effort gets poured into games that may not even see the light of day. It's an incredibly high-stress career path.But to me, all of those challenges just make the prospect of becoming a game designer even more tantalizing. I thrive on creativity under pressure, and I've never been one to shy away from hard work to turn my visions into reality. The idea of collaborating with a team of other passionate artists, programmers, and designers to build something truly revolutionary...well, it sounds like a dream come true.My teachers always push me to dream big, so here's my grand aspiration: to one day become a lead designer at a company like Nintendo, Rockstar Games, or Naughty Dog. Those developers are renowned for creating some of the most iconic and boundary-pushing games of all time across every genre. Getting hired at a legendary studio like that as a new-grad would be the first step on an epic journey.From there, I'd aspire to become a visionary director calling the shots on major franchises. Just imagine - it could be me coming up with the next era-defining adventure series like The Legend of Zelda, Grand Theft Auto, or Uncharted! Or better yet。
