英語(yǔ)簡(jiǎn)單的小短文篇一：英語(yǔ)簡(jiǎn)單中英文章閱讀

Language

Many animals use some kind of language.

They use signals which have meanings.

For example, when a bee has found some food, it goes back to its home.

It is impossible for a bee to tell the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it can do a little dancing.

This tells the bees where the food is and how far away it is.

Some animals show how they feel by making sounds.

It is not difficult to tell if a dog is angry because it barks.

Birds make several different sounds and each has its own meaning.

Sometimes we humans make sounds in the same way.

We make sounds like. "Oh!" or "Ouch!" to show how we feel about something or when we drop something on our toes!

But we have something that no animal has: a large number of words which have the meaning of things, action, feelings or ideas.

We are able to give each other information, to tell other people what is in our mind, or how we feel.

By writing down words we can remember what has happened or send messages to people far away.

It is impossible for animals to do this.

Some birds, like the parrot, can be taught to say words, but they do not know what they mean .

They cannot use the words.

No one knows how man learned to make words.

Perhaps he began by imitating animals.

Perhaps he imitated sounds he heard all around him: water splashing, bees humming, a stone falling to the ground.

In some way he learned to make words.

As the centuries went by , he made more and more words.

This is what we mean by language.

The words we know are called our vocabulary.

We should try to make our vocabulary bigger.

We should read as many books as we can .

There are plenty of books written in English for us to read.

Of course , there are new words in them.

When we find a new word, we can look it up in our dictionary.

Our dictionary is our most useful book.

許多動(dòng)物使用某種語(yǔ)言。

它們使用具有意義的信號(hào)。

例如，當(dāng)一只蜜蜂找到食物時(shí)，它就回家去。

蜜蜂不可能跟其他的蜜蜂說(shuō)話(huà)，來(lái)告訴它們食物在那里，但是它能做一點(diǎn)飛舞的動(dòng)作。

這就告訴那些蜜蜂食物在那里以及食物有多遠(yuǎn)。

有些動(dòng)物藉由發(fā)出聲音，來(lái)表示它們的感受如何。

要知道狗是否生氣并不難，因?yàn)樗鼤?huì)叫。

鳥(niǎo)發(fā)出幾種不同的聲音，而且每一種都有它本身的意義。

有時(shí)我們?nèi)祟?lèi)也用同樣的方式發(fā)出聲音。

我們發(fā)出像“喔�。⒒颉鞍ム。。⒌穆曇魜�(lái)表示我們的感受或表示我們掉了東西砸到腳趾頭。

但是我們擁有動(dòng)物所沒(méi)有的東西：(那就是有)很多的文字具有表達(dá)事物、行為、感情或觀念的意義。

我們能夠互相提供消息，能夠告訴別人我們的想法，或我們的感受。 用文字記下，我們可以記住所發(fā)生的事情，或者傳送信息給遠(yuǎn)方的人。 這是動(dòng)物所不可能做到的。

有些鳥(niǎo)，像鸚鵡，能夠教會(huì)說(shuō)話(huà)，但它們不知道那些話(huà)的意思。

它們不會(huì)使用那些話(huà)。

沒(méi)有人知道人類(lèi)如何學(xué)會(huì)造字。

也許人類(lèi)藉由模仿動(dòng)物而開(kāi)始的。

也許他模仿他周?chē)�所�?tīng)到的一切的聲音：水的飛濺聲、蜜蜂的嗡嗡聲、石頭的落地聲。

用某種方式人類(lèi)學(xué)會(huì)了造字。

隨著幾世紀(jì)的過(guò)去，人類(lèi)造了越來(lái)越多的字。

這就是我們所謂的語(yǔ)言。

我們所認(rèn)識(shí)的字稱(chēng)為我們的字匯。

我們應(yīng)該設(shè)法使我們的字匯擴(kuò)大。

我們應(yīng)該盡可能多閱讀書(shū)籍。

有很多用英文寫(xiě)的書(shū)可以供我們閱讀。

當(dāng)然，書(shū)里面有生字。

當(dāng)我們發(fā)現(xiàn)生字的時(shí)候，我們可以查字典。

字典是我們最有用的書(shū)。

Names And Nicknames

Chris: Father, I want to ask you something.

Mr.White: Yes? What's that?

Chris: I want to know the origin of "nickname", because it seems a funny word. Mr. White: Well then, listen carefully.

Do you know the meaning of the old English word "eke" e-k-e?

Chris: No. Never heard of it in my life.

Mr. White: Well, it means "also".

And if you say "an eke name" quickly, it sounds like "a nickname".

Chris: So it does.

So a nickname is another name, or an additional name?

Mr. White: You're right.

Now, at first people had only one name, Thomas, John, Richard, etc. and these names were very numerous in England.

So to tell one John from another, for instance, an additional name was necessary. Sometimes the other name was a place name.

John who lived by the church was called John Church; and John who lived on the hill was called John Hill.

That is how we get the common English names of Church, Hill, Field, Wood, etc. They are quite common in England and America.

Some men were given their fathers' names.

Thomas the son of Richard was called Thomas Richardson.

Many English family names end in "son".

Chris: What about the name Smith, which is by far the commonest of English names? Mr. White: Of course, Smith means a blacksmith, and blacksmiths were very numerous in old times, far more numerous than they are now.

Very often the second name was given according to the work or occupation of the person.

That's how we get the family names, such as Taylor, Farmer, and Clerk.

Sometimes a man was called after some characteristic.

For instance, the first John Long was certainly a tall man; just as the first Mr. Small was undoubtedly a short man.

Chris: But such names are not nicknames, they are family names.

Mr. White: You're quite right; but they were nicknames once.

Now the word has changed its meaning: it means a special name, not a real name, that is used by a person's friends and familiar acquaintances.

Many nicknames are shortened forms of the real names.

General Montgomery's soldiers always called him Monty.

Chris: Then that's why you generally call me Chris?

Mr. White: That's right.

Christopher is too big a word for everyday use.

But there is one peculiar class of nicknames that are generally given to men who have certain family names.

英語(yǔ)簡(jiǎn)單的小短文篇二：英語(yǔ)實(shí)用小短文

A populous saying goes like this: Clothes make the man. In other words, clothes show age, outlook, status and income. However, clothes look great on professional models may look terrible on the average buyer. Nowadays some students like to go after fashion. They are generous to buy if they find some attractive or sexy clothes. In my opinions, beautiful clothes don’t help physically. Expensive clothes only make the people be proud of the belonging to a high status group. In essence, we buy an image of success instead of perfect clothing. Therefore, clothes help people to build a public image. But in most cases, public image is not reliable. As students, we should not always follow the fashion, which may lead us to the wrong way.

Today a large number of students tend to cheat in the exams. Some copy the answers from their books, some talk with each other to share the right answers. Besides, some students write down the information on the palms of hands and arms. There are several reasons leading to cheat in the exams. Firstly, some students just play time away and want to get high scores without efforts. Secondly, some are under great pressure and they fear to fail the exams. Finally, some students are afraid of falling behind others in the exams. Once the students are found or caught cheating, the teachers should punish them severely and explain the harm of cheating to them. There are two ways to eliminate cheating. On the one hand, teachers should teach the students to be honest; On the other hand, strict measures should be taken against cheating. As a result, the fair play in the exams can be achieved and students can put more in study and forget about cheating.

Every year, tens of thousands students go abroad for study and for a bright future. The number of such students is ever growing and the phenomenon has raised a lot of concern. People are divided over the issue whether the students should go abroad for study at an early age. In my opinion, if possible, young students should go abroad for study. Firstly, it’s commonly accepted that the younger you are, the better you will learn a foreign language. Most of students abroad have more opportunities to master a foreign language. Secondly, as we know, the competition in our national entrance examination for college is so fierce that a lot of students fail to a chance to study further. The students who accept an advanced education abroad are more likely to fulfill their potential. Thirdly, the students abroad can learn to be more independent. In conclusion, children should go abroad for study at an early age. On the one hand, the students can develop themselves to the full. On the other hand, the society can reap the benefit from those talents.

Nowadays more and more college graduates decide to pursue postgraduate study. There are some reasons for this phenomenon. First, college graduates have to face a tight job market, which is full of competition because a huge number of graduates will go job-hunting. Confronted with tough job-seeking, more and more college graduates turn to further education for a better future. In addition, there are also a number of students who really want to continue their study at graduate school to deepen the knowledge in a particular field. What is the next step for those college graduates? In my opinion, receiving further education is a good solution for those college graduates. But it is still up to those graduates who have a good knowledge of themselves to make a final choice.

Feminism means that males and females are equal beings. They should enjoy the same right and be treated in the same way. With the development of the women liberation movement, feminism is now very popular, especially in the west. In fact, it is a characteristic of post-modern culture, which emphasizes the destruction of authority and tradition. Feminists, on behalf of the other half of the human being, tried their best to fight against the sexual discrimination for more freedom and equality. They extend the revolution far to every respect, advertising, films, literature and business. It is a great thing that women can be independent from their husbands and aware of the rights and abilities. But unfortunately, some feminists go too far to the extremes. They intended to eradicate all the differences between the male and female. This pushes a lot of women into trouble and really irritates the male world. In my opinion, it is true to say that males and females are equal, but men and women are not the same at all. When both genders make use of their respective advantages and help each other, the world will become a more peaceful and colorful place to live in.

Iron-women are those who are intelligent and enjoy working. Most of them have got a high pay and a successful career. If they are married, they may choose not to have kids. In men’s eyes, iron-women are their enemies, not their companions since they pose a threat to the male world. Iron-women are more likely to keep single because they have no makes of a traditional good wife, thus never popular with men. Additionally, iron-women are not understood by the female friends. In their points of view, iron-women have lost their nature and cannot be considered as women in the true sense. In other words, iron-women represent a big shame for the female world. In my eyes, iron-women are still lovely and good ladies. To be clever and successful is never a fault. They can play the roles wonderful as a daughter, a wife and a mother if they have the chance to play. What they need most is neither admiration nor jealousy but our understanding.

Traffic accidents are strongly associated with road conditions. Take our city for example, traffic accidents were on a rise in the last decade due to the increase of cars, buses and trucks. Meanwhile the road conditions remained the same in the past ten years. Only the main avenues are wide enough, and other streets were quite narrow. Measures should be taken to solve the problem. First, bicycles should have special ways and pedestrians must walk on sidewalks. Second, some trucks and tractors are not allowed to run at the downtown. Thirdly, subway system has to be developed. And finally we hope the vehicles will be modernized and drivers better trained. Only when the measures are taken, traffic accidents are likely to be reduced.

Most people think that wealth means success. But from my point of view, success should be viewed from two aspects. On the one hand, wealth is a very important thing to measure whether a person is successful or not. The ability to make money, to some extent, signifies your knowledge, your capability, and the value of your labor. This explains why more and more people are trying every possible means to pursue money. It seems that you have everything if you have money. But it’s not that case, I think, success, on the other hand, also means satisfaction from the work. It also means respect from others. When one’s dream is realized, it is a success as well. Take the college teachers for instance, they are not as highly-paid as some officials. In my eyes, however, they are quite successful.

If I tell you how I budget my time in my course work, you’ll have a clear idea about my habit of using time. I have found that planning ahead for a big project is advantageous. Dividing a big thing into small chunks is also easy to deal with. Unlik

e many of my classmates, I don’t like to burn the midnight oil. I feel much more comfortable if I have a task completed a week before it’s due. Then I have adequate time to recheck the work and polish it as well as possible. I can, however, produce under pressure. I once finished a thick booklet within a week. Faced with a demanding task, I can put aside most of my other work and focus on it. There are my strategies of using time.

To create means to “bring into being, to cause to exist”. According to this definition, ordinary people are creating everyday. We are creative whenever we look at something in a new way. To be creative, people should be aware of their surroundings. That means one must be sensitive. A second part of creativity is an ability to see the relationship among things. Sometimes we might consider the old things from a new perspective. For example, we might do this by finding a more effective way to study or a better choice to arrange our furniture. A third element of creativity is the courage to put our initiative ideas into practice. To think up a new concept is one thing, to apply them to work is another.

With the development of our society, more and more people know the importance of knowledge and spend more time on study. In fact we are in the “knowledge era”. Although knowledge functions as a good foundation, it is not equal to ability. That is to say, we need to put what we have learned into actual use, and obtain training. While in university, we students equip ourselves with as much knowledge as possible by reading books and attending lectures. And if we can get a part-time job, we can test whether our knowledge is useful to the society. In the process of testing and working, we develop our ability. In short, without knowledge, ability is a fish out of water; and without ability, people is nothing but a bookworm who can make no contribution to the society.

Education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for the purpose of educating them; our purpose is to fit them for life. As soon as we realize this fact, we will understand that it is very important to choose a good way of education which will really prepare children for life. In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated in such way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever job is suited to his brain and ability, and secondly, that we can, realize that all jobs are necessary to society, that it is very bad to be unwilling to do one’s work, or to laugh at someone else’s. Only in such type of education can be called valuable to society.

Hello! My name is ……(Jerry) I love English, because speaking English is interesting, and it’s also very useful. When I listen to my teacher Benny, who is a teacher teaching English, I can always understand what he’s talking about. I have been learning English for …… (two)years, and I have loved it so much. I am always told by my friends that my English is getting better than before.

Yesterday, Benny said to me, “How beautiful your English is! What a good student you are!”

And I told him that if I had started earlier, my English would have become better.

I was wondering, “Am I late? What can I do? ”

Benny answered, “Don’t be nervous! The fact that you are late is not a problem, the problem is how hard you are learning now. How you learn it is also very important, isn’t it? What would you say?”

I would say I will try my best to make my English as good as possible, and I am sure that I will have spoken like a foreigner by the end of my school years and I will be teaching others how to learn it. They would be calling me a teacher. There is always one dream in my heart, and this is it.

Only with this dream would I study hard. And I will never give up.

2 I will tell you a story that is very interesting. It is about a young man who was called Tom. Tom married a girl whose name was Jane. Jane was the girl whom Tom loved deeply. They lived in a house which was built by Tom’s father. It was an old house where Tom was born. It is

in the house where he was born that they got married. Tom liked to write stories and Jane loved all the stories that Tom wrote. They had 5 children, of whom 3 were boys. The children were very clever, which made Tom very happy. All the children went to college, as their parents expected. Tom once said he would never forget the day when he met Jane. Tom believed that Jane was the most beautiful girl that he had ever met. That was the reason why he wanted to marry her. Jane said that Tom was the person with whom she would live for a whole life. They were really a happy couple, from whom we can learn a lot. Their children live in a family where the parents are treating them like a friend. We all admire the way (in which/that) Tom treats his children. He is such a good man as everyone would like to live with.

Tom is one of the villagers who have been reported in the newspaper and he is the only one of those villagers who has acted in a film. .Love is a riddle, not until after I try would I find it simple

Love is a game,
