雙語(yǔ)作文致父親的一封信
To My Father 給我的父親
Dear Dad,
Today I was at the shopping mall and I spent a lot of time reading the Father's Day cards. They all had a special message that in some way or another reflected how I feel about you. Yet as I selected and read, and selected and read again, it occurred to me that not a single card said what I really want to say to you.
You'll soon be 84 years old, Dad, and you and I will have had 55 Father's Days together. I haven't always been with you on Father's Day nor have I been with you for all of your birthdays. It wasn't because I didn't want to be with you. I've always been with you in my heart but sometimes life gets in the way.
You know, Dad, there was a time when we were not only separated by the generation gap but completely polarized by it. You stood on one side of the Great Divide and I on the other, father and daughter split apart by age and experience, opinions, hairstyles, cosmetics, clothing, curfews, music, and boys.
The Father-Daughter Duel of '54 shifted into high gear when you taught me to drive the old Dodge and I decided I would drive the ‘54 Chevy whether you liked it or not. The police officer who escorted me home after you reported the Chevy stolen late one evening was too young to understand father-daughter politics and too old to have much tolerance for a snotty 16 year old. You were so decent about it, Dad, and I think that was probably what made it the worst night of my life.
Our relationship improved immensely when I married a man you liked, and things really turned around when we begin making babies right and left. We didn't have a television set, you know, and we had to entertain ourselves somehow. I didn't know what to expect of you and Mom as grandparents but I didn't have to wait long to find out. Those babies adored you then just as they adore you now. When I see you with all your grandchildren, I know you've given them the finest gift a grandparent can give. You've given them yourself.
Somewhere along the line, the generation gap evaporated. Age separates us now and little else. We agree on most everything, perhaps because we've learned there isn't much worth disagreeing about. However, I would like to mention that fly fishing isn't all you've cracked it up to be, Dad. You can say what you want about wrist action and stance and blah, blah, blah...
I've been happily drifting for a lot of years, Dad, and I didn't see you getting older.
I suppose I saw us and our relationship as aging together, rather like a fine wine. Numbers never seemed important. But the oddest thing happened last week. I was at a stop sign and I watched as you turned the corner in your car. It didn't immediately occur to me that it was you because the man driving looked so elderly and fragile behind the wheel of that huge car. It was rather like a slap in the face delivered from out of nowhere. Perhaps I saw your age for the first time that day. Or maybe I saw my own.
Fifty years ago this spring we planted kohlrabi together in a garden in Charles City, Iowa.
I didn't know then that I would remember that day for the rest of my life. This week, we'll plant kohlrabi together again, perhaps for the last time but I hope not. I don't understand why planting kohlrabi with you is so important to me but it is. And the funny thing about it is, well, I don't know quite how to tell you this, Dad...I don't even like kohlrabi...but I like planting it with you.
I guess what I'm trying to say, Dad, is what every son and daughter wants to say to their Dad today. Honoring a Father on Father's Day is about more than a Dad who brings home a paycheck, shares a dinner table, and attends school functions, graduations, and weddings. It isn't even so much about kohlrabi, '54 Chevrolets, and fly-fishing. It's more about unconditionally loving children who are snotty and stubborn, who know everything and won't listen to anyone. It's about respect and sharing and acceptance and tolerance and giving and taking. It's about loving someone more than words can say，and it's wishing that it never had to end.
I love you, Dad.

親愛(ài)的爸爸：
今天我在商場(chǎng)的時(shí)候，我讀了好長(zhǎng)時(shí)間的有關(guān)“父親節(jié)”的賀卡。那些卡片上面的文字很特別，也或多或少地表達(dá)出了我對(duì)您的感受。我挑選讀過(guò)一次后，又挑選讀了一遍，但那并不是一張賀卡所能表達(dá)出我想對(duì)您說(shuō)的話的。
爸爸，很快您就要84歲了，您和我也將度過(guò)這第55個(gè)“父親節(jié)”�！案赣H節(jié)”的那天，我總是不能和您在一起，連您過(guò)生日的時(shí)候我也是這樣，但這并不是因?yàn)槲也幌肱阍谀磉�。其�?shí)，在我心里，我總是和您在一起。不過(guò)，有的時(shí)候，生活也會(huì)有差錯(cuò)。
爸爸，您也知道，我們父女倆曾有一段時(shí)間因?yàn)榇鷾喜辉谝黄疬^(guò)，比如年齡、個(gè)人閱歷、觀點(diǎn)、發(fā)型、化妝、服裝、音樂(lè)、作息時(shí)間以及男朋友，因?yàn)檫@些，我們的觀點(diǎn)也非常對(duì)立。您站在“大分離”的一端，我站在“大分離”的另一端。
那時(shí)，您教我學(xué)開(kāi)那部道奇舊車(chē)，可我卻不管您喜歡不喜歡執(zhí)意要開(kāi)雪拂蘭’54那輛車(chē)。當(dāng)時(shí)，我們父女倆關(guān)于雪拂蘭汽車(chē)的爭(zhēng)執(zhí)也調(diào)到了最高擋。可那天晚上，您卻報(bào)警說(shuō)雪拂蘭車(chē)被盜。之后，一個(gè)警官把我護(hù)送到家，可他太年輕了，根本不明白我們父女倆之間的政治斗爭(zhēng)，可他也不小了，對(duì)一個(gè)16歲的流鼻涕的小孩卻沒(méi)有太多的耐心。爸爸，您倒對(duì)這件事處理得很體面，而我想那可能是我一生中最糟糕的一個(gè)夜晚吧。
在我嫁了一個(gè)您喜歡的女婿后，我們倆之間的關(guān)系才緩和了好多。后來(lái)，我們?yōu)榱撕煤玫厣鷤�(gè)孩子，就離開(kāi)了，我們之間的那些事情也就結(jié)束了。這事您也知道，我們沒(méi)有電視機(jī)看，我們就只好自?shī)首詷?lè)了。我不知道我還能對(duì)作為外公外婆的您和媽媽抱什么期望，但是，不要等到很久我就會(huì)找到答案。過(guò)去那些孩子熱愛(ài)您，現(xiàn)在他們還像以前那樣熱愛(ài)您。當(dāng)我看見(jiàn)您和您的外孫在一起的時(shí)候，我知道您都已經(jīng)給了他們最好的禮物，您把心都掏給他們了。
就是這樣，您我之間的代溝慢慢消失了�，F(xiàn)在年齡和其它一些問(wèn)題的差異把您和我分開(kāi)，可我們?cè)诤芏嗍虑榈纳系目捶ǘ际且粯拥模@可能是因?yàn)槲覀兠靼琢藳](méi)有那么多的事情值得我們爭(zhēng)辯吧。然而，我想提示一下的是，爸爸，飛蠅釣魚(yú)是您最喜歡的一種釣法，您可以說(shuō)些您想做的手腕動(dòng)作，站姿和一些沒(méi)有用的話什么的。
爸爸，雖然我已經(jīng)漂泊很多年了，但是我很快樂(lè)。然而，我卻發(fā)現(xiàn)您沒(méi)有變老，還是那么年輕。
隨著年齡的增長(zhǎng)，我認(rèn)為您和我之間的關(guān)系慢慢地融洽了好多，就像是一瓶好酒，越陳越香。家人看起來(lái)好像沒(méi)有一點(diǎn)意義似的，但是，上周發(fā)生了一件最奇怪的事情，我站在停車(chē)標(biāo)志旁，看見(jiàn)您開(kāi)著車(chē)要拐彎�？墒俏也](méi)有立刻反映到那是爸爸您。因?yàn)槟莻�(gè)人開(kāi)著車(chē)，又在那部大車(chē)的車(chē)輪后面，就顯得他歲數(shù)很大，身體也很虛弱的樣子。可我卻感到不知道從哪里飛來(lái)的一記耳光似的重重地打在我的臉上，也許，那是我第一次“看見(jiàn)”您的年齡，也許，只有我自己看見(jiàn)罷了。
五十年前的一個(gè)春天，我們?cè)谝腊⑷A州查理斯市的一個(gè)花園一起栽下苤藍(lán)菜。
當(dāng)時(shí)我也不知道我以后會(huì)懷念那一天。這一周，我們還要在一起栽苤藍(lán)菜，這是第二次。也許，這是最后一次，可我并不希望那樣。我不明白為什么我和您一起栽苤藍(lán)菜我會(huì)感到很有意義，可事實(shí)上就有意義。而且，關(guān)于這個(gè)，有個(gè)有意思的事情，可我不知道該怎么和您說(shuō)這事，爸爸……我不喜歡苤藍(lán)菜……但是，我卻喜歡和您一起栽苤藍(lán)菜。
爸爸，我想我想要說(shuō)的話是每個(gè)作兒女的今天想和他們爸爸要說(shuō)的話。過(guò)“父親節(jié)”，給父親這么一個(gè)大的榮譽(yù)，決不是因?yàn)榘职纸o家里掙多少錢(qián)，和家人一起共進(jìn)晚餐，參加學(xué)�；顒�(dòng)，參加畢業(yè)典禮和婚禮的原因，也不止是一起栽苤藍(lán)菜，開(kāi)雪拂蘭’54車(chē)和飛蠅釣魚(yú)的事，也不止是您毫無(wú)理由地愛(ài)那些流鼻涕又很淘氣，而且什么都懂，就是不聽(tīng)話的小孩。這就是尊重對(duì)方，分享快樂(lè)，認(rèn)同和忍受他人，給予和接受吧，您對(duì)別人的愛(ài)也是不能用言語(yǔ)來(lái)表達(dá)的，希望這些永不終止。
爸爸，我愛(ài)您……

Dear schoolmates, While we are sitting in our bright classroom, remember there are lots of children in the poor and disaster areas needing our help badly. Summer vacation is coming. Let’s do something to help them. As students, we can give away our pocket money, school things, some of our clothes and toys.We can also donate some books to them in order to open up their eyes to the outside world. We may raise money for charity by collecting used bottled, plastics, waste paper and so on , or by doing part-time jobs, such as, handing out advertisements, selling newspapers and so on. Making pen pals with them will be a better way to help deal with problems in their study. The more we devote/do, the better world would be! Student's Union June 13, 2008
親愛(ài)的同學(xué)們，當(dāng)我們坐在明亮的教室里時(shí)，我們記得有很多孩子在我們的幫助下，我們的幫助不好。暑假就要來(lái)了。讓我們做點(diǎn)什么來(lái)幫助他們。作為學(xué)生，我們可以把我們的零花錢(qián)，學(xué)校的東西，一些我們的衣服和玩具，我們也可以捐贈(zèng)一些書(shū)給他們，以打開(kāi)他們的眼睛到外面的世界。我們可以通過(guò)收集廢舊的瓶裝、塑料、廢紙等來(lái)為慈善事業(yè)籌集資金，或者通過(guò)做兼職工作，例如，分發(fā)廣告，銷售報(bào)紙等。與他們一起建立筆友會(huì)是一個(gè)更好的方式來(lái)幫助處理他們學(xué)習(xí)方面的問(wèn)題。我們做的越多，世界就越好！學(xué)生會(huì)2008年6月13日
我的父親 My father
My father is leaving Haimen. This morning, I would like to stay at home until he went out. I’m proud of my father. He’s a very good engineer. He also has a big company and he loves me very much. After breakfast, my father will leave in his car So we won’t have much time to keep my father’s company. “God proposes, man disposes.” My father encouraged me to study hard. “I know, goodbye and good luck.” I said to Dad and planned to get the first place in my class. I love my father; I think he is the best father in the world.
我父親離開(kāi)海門(mén)市。今天早上，我想呆在家里，直到他出去。我為我的父親感到驕傲。他是個(gè)很好的工程師。他也有一個(gè)大公司，他很愛(ài)我。早餐后，我的父親會(huì)離開(kāi)他的車(chē)，所以我們不會(huì)有太多的時(shí)間來(lái)保持我的父親的公司�！吧窳耍凶犹幹�。”我父親鼓勵(lì)我努力學(xué)習(xí)。“我知道，再見(jiàn)，祝你好運(yùn)�！蔽覍�(duì)爸爸說(shuō)，并計(jì)劃在我的課堂上第一次。我愛(ài)我的父親，我認(rèn)為他是世界上最好的父親。
we should love our country 我們應(yīng)該熱愛(ài)祖國(guó)
Everyone all has each others direction and purposein the life. When we onsider our purpose and place in life. Many people all would harbor grand desires to improve and change their respective community and countries. (But i am an exception hehe)).In other words.. success just likes depends on the small tools, or pieces, which keep structures from tumbling. Just as screws are the small yet essential objects that strengthen and sustain, we should strive for the society to live and work within. Without our earnest efforts, communities couldn't be so securely maintained.
Human society is vast and seems boundless, it also important to be modest. Regardless of how great own achievements maybe, one is still only a single screw in the large machinery. But if you must be a screw, be a strong and shining one!!!
每個(gè)人都有彼此的生活方向和目的。我們不越位的人生目標(biāo)和定位。很多人都將很多大欲望改進(jìn)和改變各自的社區(qū)和國(guó)家。(但我是一個(gè)例外呵呵))。換句話說(shuō). .成功就是喜歡取決于小工具,或碎片,住整體結(jié)構(gòu)不動(dòng)搖。正如螺絲還小的基本對(duì)象,加強(qiáng)和維持,我們應(yīng)該爭(zhēng)取社會(huì)中生活和工作。沒(méi)有我們的認(rèn)真努力,社區(qū)無(wú)法安全地維護(hù)。
人類社會(huì)是廣闊的,似乎無(wú)邊無(wú)際,同樣重要的是適度的。無(wú)論多么偉大的成就也許,仍然只有一個(gè)螺絲在大型機(jī)械。但是如果你必須是一個(gè)螺絲,一個(gè)強(qiáng)大和閃亮的一個(gè)! ! !
What is Love? 愛(ài)是什么？
As the society are becoming complex day by day, more and more people are hoodwinked by a lot of temptation or other material things, ignoring the most nature emotion, love. Many people doubt the existence of love. I totally disagree with their opinion. A few days ago, I watched the movie Love Story In Beijing. I come to realize that what is love and it is around our life.
隨著社會(huì)的日益復(fù)雜，越來(lái)越多的人被很多誘惑或其他一些物質(zhì)方面所蒙蔽，從而忽略了最真摯的感情，愛(ài)。許多人都懷疑愛(ài)的存在。我完全不同意他們的觀點(diǎn)。前幾天，我看了《北京愛(ài)情故事》這部電影。我意識(shí)到愛(ài)是什么，還有原來(lái)它就在我們身邊。
First of all, love is put one's heart and soul into her shoes. If you love someone, you will do everything for her;you will think on her side. You will reject all the temptations that can make you live better, just because you don’t want to hurt her. Secondly, love is forgiveness. No matter what the other one do to you, you will forgive her at last. You won’t treat her eye for eye. Although what she has done hurts you somuch, you won’t do the same thing to, because you love her. Thirdly, love is growing old together. The outside word is so colorful, but what you want is to grow old with her together and treasure every minute with her. What’s more, you will leave a place for her forever in your deep heart, even she has passed away.
首先，愛(ài)是全心全意為他著想。如果你愛(ài)一個(gè)人，你會(huì)為她做任何事；你會(huì)站在她的角度想問(wèn)題。你會(huì)全部拒絕那些能讓你生活地更好的誘惑，只是因?yàn)槟悴幌雮λ�。其次，�?ài)是寬容。無(wú)論對(duì)方對(duì)你做了什么，最后你都會(huì)原諒她。你不會(huì)把她以牙還牙。盡管她所做的已經(jīng)深深傷害了你，你也不會(huì)對(duì)她做同樣的事，因?yàn)槟銗?ài)她。第三，愛(ài)是一起變老。外面的世界很精彩，可是你想要的只是和她一起變老，并珍惜和她在一起的每分每秒。而且，就算她離開(kāi)這個(gè)世界了，在你的內(nèi)心深處會(huì)永遠(yuǎn)為她留著一個(gè)位置。
Love is a kind of emotion that everyone has. It is around us. If we pay attention, we will find it. So, do not lose the faith to believe the existence of love. It is the feeling that every can feel by heart.
愛(ài)是每個(gè)人都擁有的感情。它就在我們身邊。如果我們留意，我們就能找到它。所以，不要失去對(duì)愛(ài)的存在失去信心。人人都能用心感受到它。
the present my father gave me 父親給我的禮物
When I was young,my father ,who always taught me how to be a true man,told me that it is essential to be tolerant in your life whatever happens.
And that remains the most valuable present he gave me,I think To be tolerant, I need to keep calm when great trouble lies in front of me,however difficult it is to overcome it; To be tolerant ,I need to resist the temptation of all kinds of the outside world,even if it is so attractive; To be torlerant, I need to pull myself(控制自己情緒) in times of extreme sorrows and joys, no matter how they affect me.
當(dāng)我年輕的時(shí)候,我的父親,他總是教我如何成為一個(gè)真正的男人,告訴我,在你的生活中無(wú)論發(fā)生什么這是必要的寬容。
他給了我的仍然是最寶貴的禮物,,我想要寬容,我需要保持冷靜，當(dāng)大的麻煩在我的前面時(shí),即使難克服,但也要寬容,我需要抵抗各種外界的誘惑,即使它是如此有吸引力;老實(shí)說(shuō),我需要振作(控制自己情緒)在極端痛苦和快樂(lè)的時(shí)候,不管它們?nèi)绾斡绊懳摇?/p>
