新目标大学英语（第二版）视听说教程3Unit2答案Unit2 Beauty is Only Skin-deep01.Unit Goals 略02.Quotation 略03.Lead-inI.My favourite one is Mona Lisa. I think Mona Lisa’s beauty lies in her mystery. Though she is not beautiful by modern standards, her gaze is so mesmerizing and her mysterious smile seems to say “I know you, and I can see into your soul”. She is so composed and so sure of herself.II. 1.B 2.D 3.F 4.E 5.A 6.CIII.1.Though these girls are young in age, they definitely have a positive and mature outlook on beauty. I personally relate to thelast girl’s comment on beauty the most. I like the way she implies that we will grow wiser and learn from experience as we age, and that will only make us more beautiful. My understanding of beauty:1)I think passionate people are beautiful. I love when their eyes start glowing whenever they start talking about their passions.2)Honesty, openness and kindness. People who have these attributes are beautiful.3)Beautiful people are genuine. They aren’t trying to be somebody else. They are just them.4)Physical beauty rarely lasts. True beauty is about who you are as a human being, your principles, your morals, and your character. It is about how you make others feel and bring out the best in them.2. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder” means people have different ideas about what is beautiful. In other words, beauty can be subjective. I think some aspects of attractiveness are universal. For example, researchers have found that we all tend to prefer faces that are symmetrical. However, beyond some limited shared preferences, we do have different “types”. Most of us have had the experience of disagreeing with friends or family about whichcelebrity is more beautiful. And when it comes to things like the clothes we wear, the way we decorate our home, or even the kind of music we listen to, these can all differ from person to person.“Pr etty is as pretty does” means one’s attractiveness should not be used as an indicator of kindness or goodness. I agree with this saying because good character and behaviour are more important than good looks. If you are a kind, loving person, you are beautiful. However, even if you are very good-looking, you are not a truly beautiful person when you are mean to others.04.Note-Taking skill略05.Task1ExerciseI. 1.Narcissus 2.obsession 3.beautyExerciseII. 1.vain and handsome 2.rejecting the innocent love3.reflection in a pool4.outward appearance5.inner goodness(or lack of it)6.wrinkles7.golden heart8.balanced,reasonable9.Connect with 10.Love ourselves06.Task2ExerciseI. 1.yourself 2.open-minded 3.selfish 4.positive 5.Humble ExerciseII. 1-5 FTFTFExerciseIII. 1.flaws 2.embrace 3.stubborn 4.disagree with plete opposite 6.in return 7.capable of doing anything as long as 8.possess 9.arrogant07.ExerciseI. 1. charmed by 2.flaws and embrace 3.inner beauty 4.putothers first before them 5.work wonders08.ExerciseII. 1.work wonders 2.charmed by 3.put others first beforethem 4.inner beauty 5.embrace our flaws09.ExerciseIII. 1.Intelligence can be essential, but in my opinion,it’s valuable to recognize that it is the inquisitive mind and persistent effort that/which make a good scientist.2.When it comes to visiting Paris, our mind oftenturns to its abundance of landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower, the Notre Dame and the Louvre.3.

IKEBD ; ACFGHJLExerciseII.1.Women live under the impression that their looks are what valued most by the society.2.The reason why women couldn’t stop monitoring their bodies is that they have long been objects under the constant scrutiny of people around them. They themselves take it as a normal way of thinking.3.According to the psychologists, our cognitive resources are limited. I believe my students are unable to stay focused during class if they are allowed to use Facebook and text messages simultaneously. Thus for the same reason, if you constantly devote most of your energy and time to your body, you cannot spare any extra effort to care about the world and be involved in it in a more positive manner.ExerciseIII.1.The mirror is a metaphor for people’s obsession with their physical appearance. That obsession stops them from engaging with the world. The constant monitoring and scrutiny of their own appearance diverts more and more time and energy to trying to fulfil the unattainable beauty ideal, which should have been spent on realizing their own values and making an impact on the world.2.Society seems to have a particular expectation of how women should appear. According to the speaker, we walk down the street and people comment on our appearance; advertisers tell us how to be more beautiful; television programs, even news programs, ridicule women who fail to meet traditional beauty standards. Actually, every one of us who adheres to such social values is an accomplice and a victim at the same time. What can we do as an individual who intends to turn the tide against beauty sickness? First, I think we should at least be fully aware of its existence as well as the harm it could do to us. After all, change starts with awareness. Second, we should invest less in beauty. Instead, invest in things that last. Third, think of our body as a tool to explore the world. Fourth, stop reading magazines or watching shows that leave us obsessed with a body ideal that most people can never realistically achieve. Fifth, we can s top telling young kids they’re pretty. Every time we feel compelled to comment on a kid’s appearance, consider complimenting one of their other qualities instead. And when we do that, we undermine the system that teaches kids that their best way to realize themselves is the pursuit of beauty.3.The speaker wants people to be more aware of beauty sickness and learn to fight against it so as to channel their energy toward changing the world and living the happy, meaningful lives they deserve.14.Conversation1.B2.C3.A4.C1.weightte3.gain4.with5.balanced15.Passage1.D2.B3.C1.is associated with;engage in;afford to go on vacation2.ultimate goal;a tiny waist3.fitness;low body fat16.Lecture1.B2.A3.D1.Self-esteem2.ourselves3.physical perfection4.normal5.a big nose and fat legs6.live up to7.psychological issues8.death9.take to heart 10.obsessions and insecurities 11.Raise awareness 12.Live for something bigger than ourselves17.Goal Checking YES。
你心中的美是什么-(What is beauty in your mind-)
你心中的美是什么?(What is beauty in your mind?) Everyone admires beauty. Everyone has his own standard about beauty. Nowadays some people tend to think that they own beauty if they have a good looking. They are not satisfied with their appearance. They spend much money taking a kind of operation. Can beauty really be man-made?If so,everybody can get beauty. As a result,there is no beauty at all. The appearance is given by our parents and is unique in the world. Everyone should value it. I would rather nature as the standard of beauty. Just accept yourself,accept everything the god gives to you,and create the beautiful life belonging to you. Many heroes don‘t have beautiful surface. However,their beautiful images often come to our minds. Their beauty comes from their contributions to the society. Don‘t be eager to judge whether a person is beautiful or not without a thorough understanding of him. A beautiful person is not the one with a good looking,but with a broad and kind heart. Good looking is pleasant while spiritual beauty is more important. As an old saying goes,‘Virtue is fairer than beauty. ‘If you have a kind heart,you own real beauty.---来源网络整理，仅供参考1。

高中英语_What is beauty教学设计学情分析教材分析课后反思
What is Beauty教学设计一、教学文本分析本课例阅读材料What is Beauty共448字，是一篇精美的阅读文章。
选材的初衷源自于外研版必修五Module Two A Job Worth Doing 中的The Human Traffic Signal.文本中介绍了一位普通志愿者Timoteo Apaza为了救其他人的生命，甘愿在艰苦的环境下充当路标的伟大事迹，充分展现了人性的内在美。
这和当今社会人们对外在美的盲目追求形成了鲜明的的对比。
What Is Beauty则讲述了内在美及外在美的内涵和表现。
外在美会受到时间、文化和社会影响。
审美角度的不同人们对美的看法就不一样。
结合《山东省中小学德育课程一体化实施指导纲要》，依托文本材料，帮助学生由表及里、由浅入深得提高阅读、思考和组织能力；引导他们在理解文本的基础上，充分挖掘文本本身所蕴含的的思想性，渗透我们的德育教育，从而树立正确的社会观、人生观、价值观，为日后走向社会作铺垫。
二、学情分析本节课的授课对象是高二年级的学生。
从英语能力上讲，经过高中一年多的学习，学生的英语能力有了很大改善，但词汇量仍然不足，而且对观点、看法和感受的表达能力欠缺。
同时个体差异较大，同班级学生的学习能力参差不齐。
从性格上讲，高二学生依然不太成熟，缺乏自信，课堂上不如初中学生容易调动。
该年龄段学生，其人生观和价值观已初步形成，对于事物有一定的批判性思考能力。
但由于涉世未深，对事物的看法相对而言比较简单，容易受到一些不良因素的影响，从而产生错误的人生价值观，偏离正确的人生轨道。
三、设计思路与理念本节课的设计思路从以下两个层面来展开：1.话题层面上：引入话题，通过视频、图片展示，问题引导、辩论、陈述等形式，引发学生思考“什么是真正的美”这一问题；通过获取细节信息，激活学生关于该话题的认知，并积极思考“何为美”。
2.语言层面上：通过回答问题、讨论问题、展示观点的方式，引导学生从不同角度，归纳自己对外在美和内在美的不同看法，并组织语言表达出来。

He is best-known for The Classic of T ea , the first work on growing, making and drinking tea.Lu was born in Jingling in 733 A.D. As a child, he became a student of Zou Fuzi. Thanks to his teacher's guidance , he learnt a lot. He often made tea for his teacher . He also took care of his fellow students' health using his knowledge on tea and herbs（草药）.Lu Y u often went to the countryside to gather tea leaves and herbs. On one of those trips,Lu Y u found a spring. The water was quite clear and clean. When Lu made tea with this spring（1）（2）（3）（4）water , he found the tea tasted better than usual. From then on, he realized the importance of water quality in making tea.In 752 A.D., Lu Y u finished his studies and returned to Jingling, where he met Cui Guofu.Both men shared the same interests in tea, literature（文学）and poetry.

我们怎样才能真正变得美丽英语作文
我们怎样才能真正变得美丽英语作文全文共5篇示例，供读者参考篇1How Can We Truly Become Beautiful?Hi friends! Have you ever wondered how some people just seem so pretty and beautiful all the time? Maybe you've looked at someone and thought "Wow, I wish I could be that beautiful!" Well, you're not alone. A lot of kids (and grownups too!) spend a lot of time wishing they looked different on the outside. But did you know that true beauty isn't just about how you look? True beauty comes from the inside too!What is Beauty Anyway?When we talk about someone being beautiful, we're usually thinking about their appearance - how they look on the outside. Maybe they have pretty hair, nice skin, a cute smile. But looks aren't everything when it comes to being beautiful. I think inner beauty - what someone is like deep down inside - is just as important, if not more!There are lots of different kinds of inner beauty. Being kind, caring, generous, honest, confident, brave, hard-working, andpositive are all examples of inner beauty qualities. Someone who is beautiful on the inside treats others with respect, is a good friend, works hard in school, and sees the bright side of things. Those inner qualities make them beautiful from the inside out!Just look at my buddy Jake. He's one of the nicest, most caring kids I know. He's always sticking up for other kids who get picked on and checking in on anyone who seems sad. He works really hard on his schoolwork too and never gives up, even when things get tough. Sure, he may not be a supermodel, but his wonderful personality makes him one of the most beautiful people I know!How to Nurture Inner BeautySo now that we know inner beauty is so important, how can we develop and nurture it? Here are some tips:Be KindKindness is one of the most beautiful qualities there is. Look for ways to be kind and caring to the people around you every single day. It can be something small like holding the door, giving a nice compliment, or asking someone how they're doing. Or it can be bigger, like standing up for someone who needshelp or volunteering your time. Kindness makes the whole world a little bit prettier.Work HardHaving a good work ethic and always trying your best makes you beautiful on the inside. Put in your full effort on homework, chores, sports, or whatever else you do. Don't give up when things get hard - keep pushing and working as hard as you can. Lazy people who quit easily aren't nurturing their inner beauty.Stay PositiveDo you know someone who's always looking on the bright side and having a positive attitude? That's inner beauty right there! Make an effort to have a positive mindset, even when things aren't going your way. Don't get dragged down by negativity. Keep your chin up and see the glass as half-full.Be BraveDoing the right thing and standing up for what you believe in, even when it's tough or scary, shows true inner beauty and strength of character. Don't be afraid to make the brave choice. Build up your bravery and confidence bit by bit.Be HonestHonesty and integrity are amazing inner beauty traits. Never tell lies, stay true to your values, and earn the trust of the people around you through your honesty. Fessing up when you make a mistake, even if you'll get in trouble, shows gorgeous inner beauty too.Be YourselfAt the end of the day, the most beautiful thing you can be is your authentic self. Don't try to be someone you're not just because you think it will make you prettier or more popular. Embrace your true self - quirks, interests, personality and all! The people who matter most will love you for you.Outer Beauty TooOf course, working on your inner beauty doesn't mean you can't also work on your outer beauty and appearance. There's nothing wrong with wanting to look nice too! Just don't get so hung up on the outside that you neglect the much more important inner beauty work.Take care of your body and health by eating nutritious foods, exercising, getting enough sleep, and taking care of your hair, skin and nails. Practice good hygiene. Find a style that makes youfeel comfortable and confident. Remember that true confidence and outer radiance comes from inner beauty though!Never, ever put someone else down or make fun of their looks either. That's just plain ugly behavior. We're all in this together, exploring our unique brands of beauty.Beauty is EverywhereThe reality is that beauty comes in all different shapes, sizes, colors, styles and forms. Open your eyes and you'll start to see beauty all around you every day if you look for it. That cheerful cashier at the grocery store, a colorful painting, your mom's delicious cooking, a pretty sunset - beauty is everywhere!More importantly, every single person has the potential for incredible inner beauty. You, me, your friends, your family, that kid you don't know very well - we all can nurture the kindness, honesty, positivity and other gorgeous qualities inside of us.So don't spend too much time wishing you looked like a celebrity or model. Instead, focus on shining your inner beauty out into the world every day. Work on being the most generous, hard-working, brave, positive person you can be. If we all do that, imagine how beautiful our world would be!No matter what you look like on the outside, nurturing your inside beauty is what will make you truly glow. Let's all keep polishing up our inner sparkle. Who's with me?篇2How Can We Truly Become Beautiful?Hi friends! Today I want to talk to you about something that's super important - being beautiful. But not just being pretty on the outside. I mean being truly, amazingly beautiful on the inside too!You might be thinking, "But I'm just a kid, why do I need to worry about being beautiful now?" Well, let me tell you. Learning how to be a beautiful person, inside and out, is one of the most important things you can do. It will make your life so much happier and help you make lots of friends.So what does it really mean to be beautiful? A lot of people think beauty is just about having nice hair, pretty eyes, clear skin and wearing cool clothes. But true beauty is so much more than that. True beauty starts on the inside with having a good heart and a positive attitude.Let me give you an example. Imagine there are two girls in your class. One is really stylish and wears trendy outfits. But she'salso really mean and makes fun of other kids. The other girl doesn't dress as nicely, but she's kind, helpful and smiles all the time. Which one is truly more beautiful? I think you know the answer - it's the kind, happy girl. Looks might get your attention at first, but real beauty is about what's inside.So how can we develop inner beauty and become truly gorgeous people? Here are some tips:Be kind and caring. Do nice things for others without expecting anything in return. You could help a friend with their homework, volunteer to chip in on chores at home, or just give someone a warm compliment. Spread love and happiness wherever you go!Work on having a positive attitude. Don't be negative and complain all the time. Look at the bright side of situations instead of only seeing the downsides. An upbeat attitude makes you fun to be around.Be confident and believe in yourself. Don't put yourself down or let others bully you. Everyone is unique and special in their own way. Embrace your quirks and celebrate what makes you different!Take care of your body. Following a healthy lifestyle by eating nutritious foods, exercising, and getting enough sleep helps your body and mind feel great. A strong, healthy person shines from the inside out.Never stop learning. Read lots of books, ask questions, and try new activities. Wisdom, intelligence and curiosity are incredibly attractive qualities. Plus, learning is just plain fun!Follow the Golden Rule. You've heard it before - treat others how you want to be treated yourself. Be respectful, kind and fair to everyone you meet. We're all humans trying our best.Appreciate beauty all around you. Notice the little things that are lovely in nature, art and people themselves. The more you can see and celebrate beauty in the world, the more beautiful you become.Of course, maintaining external beauty with good grooming habits like bathing, brushing your teeth and wearing clean clothes is still important too. But true, lasting beauty comes from within.Being gorgeous on the inside is worth so much more than just having a pretty face. When you have inner beauty, it shows in the way you carry yourself with confidence and joy. People arenaturally drawn to your warmth and positive spirit. You start spreading love and happiness everywhere you go.True beauty is a gift that keeps on giving too. By being compassionate and spreading kindness, you'll inspire others to be beautiful souls as well. It creates an amazing cycle of people treating each other - and themselves - with love and respect. Just imagine how beautiful our world would be if everyone was that way!I really want all of you to be shining souls, radiating happiness and inner light. So I'll leave you with this final thought...Maybe you're not sure if you're a beautiful person yet, and that's okay. Just start trying your best to be kind, confident, curious and caring every single day. Before you know it, you'll have blossomed into a truly gorgeous human being from the inside out. True beauty has no limits - it keeps growing forever inside you and touching everyone around you. How awesome is that?Let's all go forth and spread some beauty, my friends! It's the most important thing we can do to make the world a better place. Who's with me?篇3How Can We Really Become Beautiful?Hi everyone! My name is Emily and I'm nine years old. Today I want to talk to you about something that's very important, especially for us girls - how can we really become beautiful? I've been thinking about this a lot lately.When I was younger, I thought being beautiful just meant having pretty hair, nice clothes and maybe some makeup. I would look at the Disney Princesses or models in magazines and wish I could look like them. But now that I'm a little older, I've realized that true beauty isn't just about looks on the outside. It's way more than that!First of all, I've learned that the most beautiful people are beautiful on the inside. My mom always tells me that kindness, confidence, and having a good heart matter way more than anything else. She says when you're a nice person who treats others well, your inner beauty will shine through no matter what you look like. I can see what she means - some of the prettiest girls I know are actually kind of mean, while other kids who might not be as perfect-looking are way nicer and more fun to hang out with.I've also realized that the models and actresses we see in TV shows and movies aren't even realistic. A lot of times, their looks have been edited with computers and photoshop to make them look more "perfect." In real life, they have pimples, frizzy hair days and everything just like the rest of us! And even they have insecurities about how they look. True confidence and feeling beautiful has to come from within yourself.Another big part of being beautiful is taking good care of your body and mind. Eating decent foods, exercising, getting enough sleep - all of these things impact how we look AND feel. If we're tired, stressed out and eating terribly, it will show on our faces and in our attitudes. A girl who's healthy and feels good in her own skin has a natural glow about her. Happiness, optimism and energy also make someone way more beautiful than just makeup or fancy clothes.Speaking of clothes and makeup, I know those things can be fun and make us feel extra confident. But it's so important, especially when we're young kids, not to go overboard or think we NEED those things to be pretty. Makeup and trendy outfits can highlight our natural beauty, but true beauty starts first by being comfy and feeling like ourselves. I've seen kids my age already obsessing over diets, fashions or piling on the makeup.That just makes me sad because it's like they don't appreciate how beautiful they already are!At the end of the day, the most beautiful people are the ones who are genuinely nice, smart, confident and comfortable in their own skin. Instead of worrying so much about our appearances, we should focus more on developing our personalities, treating people well, working hard in school and at our hobbies or sports, and doing things that make us happy. If we prioritize those more meaningful things, the beauty on the outside will fall into place!I know these lessons might be harder to grasp when we're just kids surrounded by iOS of unrealistic beauty standards. But I hope more people my age can start to see that true beauty has very little to do with looking like a model or a celebrity. Instead, it's about being our best, happiest, most confident selves - inside and out. Those are the people I admire and want to become. And hey, no matter what we look like, let's stop being so hard on ourselves! We're all beautiful in our own way.篇4How Can We Truly Become Beautiful?Hi friends! Have you ever wondered how we can become truly beautiful? I mean, not just having a pretty face, but being a beautiful person inside and out? Well, let me tell you all about it!First of all, being beautiful is not just about looking good on the outside. Real beauty comes from the inside - from having a kind heart, a positive attitude, and caring about others. My mom always says that pretty faces fade, but a beautiful soul shines forever. Isn't that cool?One of the most important things about being beautiful inside is being kind to everyone around you. That means being nice to your family, your friends, your teachers, and even people you don't know very well. It means sharing your toys, helping others when they need it, and saying nice things instead of mean ones. Whenever I'm kind to someone, it makes me feel so good inside!Another way to have inner beauty is to always try your best, even when things get tough. Like when I was learning to tie my shoelaces, it was really hard at first. But I kept on trying and didn't give up, and finally I got it! My dad gave me a big hug and said he was proud of me for not quitting. That felt amazing. Having inner beauty means you're determined and you don't get discouraged easily.You know what else is important for inner beauty? Being thankful! We should be grateful for all the good things we have in life, like our families, friends, pets, toys, books, and so much more. Every night before I go to bed, I think about three things I'm thankful for that day. It helps me stay positive and appreciate the beauty in my life.Okay, now let's talk about outer beauty for a minute. Even though it's not the most important thing, it's still nice to take care of ourselves on the outside too. That means bathing regularly, brushing our teeth, combing our hair, and wearing clean clothes. When we take care of our bodies, we look neat and put-together. It makes us feel good about ourselves.But you know what's really cool? Outer beauty can actually come from inner beauty too! When we're kind, confident, hardworking, and thankful people, it shows on our faces. Our eyes sparkle, our smiles are brighter, and we carry ourselves in a beautiful way. True beauty shines from within.There's one more thing I want to mention about being beautiful, and it's super important. We need to respect our bodies and minds, and never let anyone harm or disrespect us. If someone is bullying us, calling us mean names, or making us feel uncomfortable, we have to tell a trusted adult right away. Everysingle person deserves to feel safe, valued and respected. That's true beauty.So in the end, while having a pretty face or styling our hair nicely is okay, true beauty is really about what's inside our hearts. It's about being a good friend, working hard, staying positive, and treating ourselves and others with kindness. Those are the things that'll make us glow on the outside too!I'm going to keep working on having a beautiful mind, body and soul. It takes practice, but it's definitely possible. And you can do it too! Let's all try our best to spread beauty, kindness and positivity everywhere we go. The world needs more of that!What do you guys think? How will you work on becoming a beautifully awesome person this week? Let me know!篇5How Can We Truly Become Beautiful?Hi friends! Today I want to talk about something really important – how we can become truly beautiful people. I'm not just talking about having a pretty face or a nice body, but being beautiful on the inside too.First of all, what does it mean to be beautiful? To me, being beautiful means being a good person who is kind, caring, and treats others with respect. It's about having a warm heart and a gentle spirit. Sure, looking nice on the outside is great too, but inner beauty is what really counts.So how can we become beautiful people? Here are some tips:Be kind to othersThis is probably the most important thing. If we want to be beautiful, we have to be kind! That means treating people with kindness, even if they are different from us or if we don't really like them. It means sharing our toys, helping others when they need it, and using nice words.It's also important to be kind to animals and to take care of the environment. Don't litter or hurt creatures, and recycle stuff when you can. The world will be a lot prettier if we keep it clean and protect the animals.Have a positive attitudeNobody likes a grumpy grouch! Beautiful people spread happiness and cheer wherever they go. So put a smile on yourface, look at the bright side of things, and be positive. Even when something bad happens, try to stay upbeat and optimistic.Make it a goal to make others smile and laugh every day. Share jokes, be silly, and have fun! Laughter really is the best medicine.Be honest and truthfulLying is so ugly! Beautiful people are honest, even when it's hard. If you make a mistake, own up to it. If you need to share something difficult, do it kindly but truthfully. Lies hurt people and ruin trust. Choose to walk the high road and be a person of integrity.Work hard in school and activitiesWorking hard and doing your best makes you beautiful on the inside. Put genuine effort into your schoolwork, chores, sports, or hobbies. Don't just glide by or goof off. When you work diligently and refuse to quit, it shows you have inner strength and discipline.Be helpful to family and friendsBeautiful people go out of their way to help loved ones. It could be doing extra chores, tutoring a sibling, running an errand for grandma, or cheering for a friend at their game. Putothers before yourself sometimes. It's such a gorgeous thing when people are selfless!Be gratefulHaving an attitude of gratitude makes you lovely. Appreciate the good things in your life, like parents who love you, teachers who care, friends who laugh with you, and a home to live in. Don't take stuff for granted. Say "thank you" often and really mean it!Accept differencesEvery person is unique and special. We all have different cultures, abilities, beliefs, and personalities – and that's okay! Judging others for being different is so ugly. Instead, beautiful people celebrate diversity. They don't exclude those who are unusual but welcome them with open arms.Practice self-careYou can't be a beautiful person if you don't take care of yourself, right? So get plenty of sleep, eat healthy foods, exercise, and do things that relax you. Read uplifting books, play outside, and give your mind and body what they need to recharge. Inner beauty glows when you nurture yourself too.Those are my tips for true beauty! It's not about having the latest clothes, fanciest electronics, or most Instagram followers. Real beauty shines from your character – the way you treat yourself and others.So let's all try a little harder to be beautiful people, okay? Our world could definitely use more kindness, goodness, and lovely souls. If we all work together and commit to inner beauty, I know we can make a big positive difference! What do you think? I'd love to hear your ideas too. Thanks for being such a great friend!。

Embrace the unknown with confidence and know that you have the resilience and determination to overcome any obstacles that come your way.In conclusion, entering a new class is a rollercoaster of emotions – excitement, anxiety, curiosity, and fear.

英语描述你的心情作文
英语描述你的心情作文Title: A Reflection of My Current Mood。
As I sit down to reflect on my current mood, I find myself enveloped in a myriad of emotions, each vying for dominance over the others. It's fascinating how the human psyche can be so complex, with feelings shifting like the tides, sometimes calm and serene, other times tumultuous and chaotic. Today, my emotional landscape resembles a tapestry woven with threads of various hues, each representing a different facet of my inner world.At the forefront of my consciousness is a sense of tranquility, a serene calm that washes over me like a gentle breeze on a summer evening. This feeling is akin to finding solace in the midst of chaos, a moment of respite amidst the hustle and bustle of daily life. It is a reminder that amidst the chaos, there is always a sanctuary within, a place of peace and serenity that remains untouched by the outside world.Yet, intertwined with this tranquility is a tinge of melancholy, a subtle sadness that lurks beneath the surface of my consciousness. It is the echo of past sorrows, the ghosts of memories long forgotten, haunting the corridors of my mind. This melancholy is not overpowering, but rather a gentle reminder of the fragility of life, a poignant reminder to cherish every moment and hold onto the ones we love dearly.In contrast to the tranquility and melancholy, there is also a spark of excitement, a flicker of anticipation for what the future holds. It is the thrill of embarking on a new adventure, the excitement of stepping into the unknown and embracing the possibilities that lie ahead. Thisfeeling fills me with a sense of optimism, a belief that no matter what challenges may come my way, I have the strength and resilience to overcome them.However, amidst the tranquility, melancholy, and excitement, there is also a sense of uncertainty, a gnawing doubt that lingers at the back of my mind. It is the fearof the unknown, the apprehension of what the future may hold, and whether I am truly prepared to face it. This uncertainty is like a shadow that follows me wherever I go, a constant reminder that life is unpredictable and that the only constant is change.Yet, despite the uncertainty, there is also a glimmer of hope, a ray of light that pierces through the darkness and illuminates the path ahead. It is the belief that no matter how dark the night may seem, dawn will always break, and a new day will dawn. This hope is what keeps me going, what gives me the strength to persevere in the face of adversity, and what reminds me that no matter how challenging life may be, there is always a reason to keep moving forward.In conclusion, my current mood is a complex tapestry woven from the threads of tranquility, melancholy, excitement, uncertainty, and hope. It is a reflection of the myriad emotions that make up the human experience, a reminder that life is a journey filled with ups and downs, twists and turns. And while my mood may change from momentto moment, one thing remains constant the resilience of the human spirit and the belief that no matter what challenges may come my way, I have the strength and courage to face them head-on.。

英语作文轻叩诗歌的大门(现代诗歌)四年级

In this era of information overload, accurate and efficient communication has become especially important. I firmly believe that good communication can build bridges between people, playing an indispensable role in academia, career, and daily life. Therefore, I decided to invest my knowledge and skills into creating valuable documents to help people find inspiration and direction when needed.正文：英语作文轻叩诗歌的大门(现代诗歌)四年级全文共3篇示例，供读者参考篇1A Gentle Knock on the Door of Modern PoetryHave you ever felt like words can paint pictures in your mind? Like they can make you see colors, hear sounds, and feel emotions? That's what poetry does for me. It takes the ordinarylanguage we use every day and transforms it into something extraordinary – something that sparks our imagination and touches our hearts.My journey into the world of modern poetry began when my teacher, Mrs. Roberts, introduced us to the works of famous poets like Langston Hughes, Maya Angelou, and Shel Silverstein. At first, I didn't quite understand what all the fuss was about. Why were we analyzing these seemingly simple lines of text? But as Mrs. Roberts guided us through the poems, unveiling the hidden meanings and symbolism, I started to see poetry in a whole new light.One of the first modern poems that really captured my attention was "Dreams" by Langston Hughes. It's a short but powerful piece that speaks volumes about the importance of holding onto our dreams, no matter how difficult life may get. The lines "Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly" resonated deep within me. It made me think about all the dreams I have for myself –becoming a artist, traveling the world, making a difference. And it inspired me to never let go of those dreams, no matter what obstacles I might face.As I delved deeper into the world of modern poetry, I discovered that it's not just about fancy words and rhymes (although those can be pretty cool too!). It's about expressing emotions, exploring deeper truths, and capturing the essence of human experience in a way that regular prose can't. Take Maya Angelou's phenomenal poem "Phenomenal Woman," for instance. Every line radiates confidence, self-love, and the beauty of embracing one's true self. Lines like "Pretty women wonder where my secret lies. I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size" challenge societal norms and encourage readers to find strength in their uniqueness.And then there's the whimsical, playful side of modern poetry, brought to life by masters like Shel Silverstein. His poems, like "Sick" and "Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out," are not only hilarious but also teach valuable lessons about responsibility, empathy, and looking at the world from different perspectives.As I continued my exploration of modern poetry, I realized that it's not just about reading and analyzing – it's also about creating. Mrs. Roberts encouraged us to try our hand at writing our own poems, and let me tell you, it's not as easy as it looks! But that's part of the beauty of it. Poetry allows you to expressyourself in a way that regular writing can't. It gives you the freedom to play with words, bend rules, and create something truly unique.One of my favorite poems that I wrote was about the changing seasons. I tried to capture the vibrant colors of fall, the biting chill of winter, the rebirth of spring, and the warmth of summer – all through carefully chosen words and vivid imagery. It wasn't perfect, but that's the beauty of poetry – it's a constant work in progress, a never-ending journey of self-expression and growth.Modern poetry has opened up a whole new world for me, a world where words have the power to inspire, challenge, and transform. It's a gentle knock on the door of self-discovery, inviting us to explore the depths of our emotions, our experiences, and our humanity. And as I continue my journey through the realms of poetry, I can't wait to see what other wonders await behind that door.篇2Gently Knocking on the Door of Poetry (Modern Poetry)Poetry is like a secret garden, filled with wonders waiting to be discovered. For a long time, I thought poetry was just aboutrhyming words and silly verses. But then my teacher opened the gate and let me peek inside, and I realized poetry is so much more! It's a magical world of vivid imagery, deep emotions, and creative expression.At first, modern poetry seemed strange and confusing to me. The verses didn't always rhyme, and the words were often arranged in unusual ways on the page. But Miss Wilson encouraged us to keep an open mind. She said modern poets play with language like artists playing with colors and shapes. Instead of following strict rules, they bend and twist words to capture feelings and experiences in new, eye-opening ways.One of the first modern poems I read was "The Red Wheelbarrow" by William Carlos Williams. It's tiny, just a few lines describing a red wheelbarrow glazed with rain water beside some white chickens. When I first read it, I thought – that's it? But Miss Wilson had us analyze it line-by-line, and I started to see how the poet used vivid sensory details to paint a picture in my mind. The bright red wheelbarrow, the glistening rain droplets, the starkly contrasting white chickens – it all came alive. With just a few carefully chosen words, Williams turned an ordinary scene into something beautiful and worth pausing to appreciate.That's one of the coolest things about modern poetry in my opinion. The poems are usually pretty short, but they pack a big punch. The poets use figurative language like metaphors and imagery to express big ideas and emotions with just a few lines. It's like exploring the depths of the ocean in a tiny submarine instead of a big cruise ship. You might not see the whole vast ocean, but you get a special close-up glimpse into a hidden underwater world.Another modern poem that stuck with me is "The Divine Lawnmower" by Maya Angelou. In this one, she compares the lawnmower mowing the grass to the sun moving through the sky. She describes the blades of grass as "crisp bread" and the lawnmower as "a zebra consuming cotton" and "chewing with a full mouth the daffodils' stalks." At first it seemed like a pretty out-there comparison, but as I pondered it, I got what Angelou was saying. The patterns of nature, like the sun's movement and the growth of plants, have an underappreciated beauty and elegance to them, just like the whirring lawnmower industriously trimming the grass. By making these wild comparisons, she opens our eyes to see the magic in something as ordinary as yardwork.While lots of modern poems focus on nature and ordinary objects, just as many explore big human experiences and emotions. One poem that really moved me was "Morning Song" by Sylvia Plath. In it, she writes about the mixture of joy, awe, and anxiety she feels as a new mother holding her baby. She compares her newborn child's cry to "a Celtic lullaby" and "a piano being tuned in the next room." Even though I'm not a mom, I could imagine the swirl of emotions Plath expresses as she studies her tiny new baby's face:"All night your moth-breathFlickers among the flat pink roses of your sleep."I love how Plath finds incredible beauty and significance in the simple act of a sleeping baby breathing. She uses creative comparisons to describe something so ordinary in a fresh way that captures how extraordinary it feels to her as a new parent in that moment.As I've sampled more and more modern poetry over the past few months, I've come to really appreciate how the poets push aside rules and write from a place of raw feeling and imagination. They aren't afraid to stray from perfect rhymes and meters, because their main goal is to express themselves authentically and help readers experience the world in a new way.Modern poetry reminds me of those abstract paintings where the colors and shapes don't look like anything realistic at first, but if you take a step back and open your mind, you start to see feelings and images emerge. That's how modern poems feel to me – at first the words and structure seem scattered, but if I slow down and immerse myself, images and emotions start to bloom.While I still enjoy nursery rhymes and rhyming poems for their whimsy and wordplay, I'm so glad I've dipped my toes into modern poetry. It's opened up a whole new way of thinking and perceiving for me. I find myself pausing to examine ordinary objects and experiences more closely, looking for metaphors and uncovering deeper meanings and emotions, just like the modern poets do. Instead of just rattling off a rhyme, I try to capture moments and moods with carefully chosen words and imaginative comparisons.I know there are still many, many doors left to open when it comes to poetry, both modern and classic. For now, I'm just grateful I worked up the courage to gently knock and discover the treasures waiting on the other side. Modern poetry has shown me that the most profound truths about life and beauty can often be found in the simplest, most peculiar packages. AsMaya Angelou put it, "Poetry is the lush life of the human spirit." I'm just starting to get a taste of that lush life, and I can't wait to see what other gorgeous gardens modern poetry has in store.篇3Knocking Gently on the Door of Poetry (Modern Poetry)Poetry has always seemed like a big mystery to me. All those words carefully lined up, some rhyming, some not. Stanzas and verses that are supposed to flow like a river but sometimes feel more like hitting rocks along the way. My teacher says poetry is like a secret code, with deeper meanings hidden beneath the surface. I'm not sure I entirely understand it yet, but I'm trying to knock gently and let poetry open the door for me.This year we started learning about modern poetry in class. I have to admit, when I first heard we'd be studying modern poets, I wasn't too excited. Pages and pages of writing without rhymes or rhythm or even making sense at times? How could that possibly be interesting? But Mrs. Jacobson has a way of making even the strangest poems feel like uncovering buried treasure.She started us off with some poets she knew we'd connect with – Jack Prelutsky and Shel Silverstein. They write funny, quirky poems about crazy creatures and silly situations thatmake me laugh out loud. Prelutsky's "The FlunkyPlunkett-Plucker" had our whole class in stitches trying to untangle our tongues around those wonderfully ridiculous made-up words. And who could forget Silverstein's classic "Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out"? I'll never look at a trash can the same way again!From there, we moved into poets who use simpler, more spare language to capture something magical. We read Carl Sandburg's descriptions of fog, moon, and grass that made the ordinary feel extraordinary. And Charles Simic's tiny poems pack a huge punch in just a few lines – my favorite is "The Bowl" where he compares an empty bowl to things like "the firstO uttered on earth" and "a sitting Buddha." Isn't that amazing wordplay?Then it was time to meet some of the real rebel poets who helped start the modern poetry revolution. I'll be honest, reading the work of E.E. Cummings with his unconventional capitalization and spatial arrangement on the page was really confusing at first. But Mrs. Jacobson explained how he was intentionally breaking rules and freeing poetry from its strict structure. His poem"r-p-o-p-h-e-s-s-a-g-r" feels like an unchained, joyful celebration of language leaping right off the lines.And then there was the one who started it all – Walt Whitman. It's hard to believe "Song of Myself" with its long, sprawling verses was considered scandalous when it came out, but that's part of what made Whitman so revolutionary. He had such an honest, brave voice celebrating democracy, freedom, and the struggles of everyday people. I felt his poem "O Captain! My Captain!" with its mourning for Abraham Lincoln so deeply in my heart.As we've traveled through the modern poetry landscape, I've come to appreciate how many different styles and voices are represented. From thoughtful poets like Mary Oliver gently unfurling the wonders of nature, to daring poets like Allen Ginsberg howling defiance against conformity, to haunting poets like Sylvia Plath excavating personal pain, each one is knocking in their own way, asking to be let inside.Lately we've explored poets who blend wonderful wordplay with slices of cultures I didn't know much about before. I loved learning about Pablo Neruda's lush, romantic Spanish verses and how he used unexpected metaphors like comparing his love to an "infinite revelation of all good fruit." Naomi Shihab Nye's poems about her Palestinian-American heritage touch on both humor and heartbreak. And Li-Young Lee's words about hisChinese family's immigrant experience made me feel like I was tasting the "mild persimmons" he describes.The more poets I meet, the more that door keeps creaking open wider. I'm still just a kid struggling to make sense of these carefully crafted words and lines. Poetry doesn't always follow logical rules, but that's exactly what makes it magical. A few weeks ago, Mrs. Jacobson read us the poem "Introduction to Poetry" by Billy Collins where he jokes that poetry should be taken and held "until it begins to writhe." I may not always understand everything right away, but letting these poems wiggle around in my mind a bit has definitely helped me start to feel the pulse underneath.I'm not sure if I could call myself a "poet" yet or even fully appreciate every poem we've studied. But I know my gentle knocks on poetry's door are slowly becoming more confident taps. Each time I discover a new poet, it's like being given a key to a hidden world. Some keys open to powerful stories and voices that have been locked away for too long. Some reveal the struggles and sorrows poets wrestle with in themselves and society. And others simply unlock an outpouring of pure joy through creative expression.For now, I'll just keep on knocking and doing my best to soak in each one. I'm looking forward to the many poets still waiting to be discovered in the years ahead – the future voices adding their taps to the knock that started ages ago. Who knows? Maybe one day a poem of my own will wind up as part of that gentle, persistent knocking on poetry's door.。

What is beauty in your mind？(你的心情美丽吗)_500字
Everyone admires beauty。
Everyone has his own standard about beauty。
Nowadays some people tend to think that they own beauty if they have a good looking。
They are not satisfied with their appearance。
They spend much money taking a kind of operation。
Can beauty really be man-made？If so，everybody can get beauty。
As a result，there is no beauty at all。
The appearance is given by our parents and is unique in the world。
Everyone should value it。
I would rather nature as the standard of beauty。
Just accept yourself，accept everything the god gives to you，and create the beautiful life belonging to you。
Many heroes don"t have beautiful surface。
However，their beautiful images often come to our minds。
Their beauty comes from their contributions to the society。
Don"t be eager to judge whether a person is beautiful or not without a thorough understanding of him。
A beautiful person is not the one with a good looking，but with a broad and kind heart。
Good looking is pleasant while spiritual beauty is more important。
As an old saying goes，“Virtue is fairer than beauty。
”If you have a kind heart，you own real beauty。
