⑴ 作文《我愛英語》要有具體事例!600字左右語文作業
By JOHN McWHORTER
Published: January 20, 2012
There has always been disagreement on these American shores as to just what the 「」 English is. The status of Parisian French or Tuscan Italian has long been unassailable. Yet in the early 1940s, fusty Chicagoans were writing to The Chicago Tribune declaring Midwestern speech America』s 「purest,」 while New York radio announcers were speaking in plummy Londonesque, complete with rolled r』s. Down in Charleston, S.C., the elite』s sense of the best English involved peculiar archaisms like 「cam」 for 「calm」 and 「gyardin」 for 「garden.」
SPEAKING AMERICAN
A History of English in the United States
By Richard W. Bailey
207 pp. Oxford University Press. $27.95.
In 「Speaking American,」 a history of American English, Richard W. Bailey argues that geography is largely behind our fluid evaluations of what constitutes 「proper」 English. Early Americans were often moving westward, and the East Coast, unlike European cities, birthed no dominant urban standard. The story of American English is one of eternal rises and falls in reputation, and Bailey, the author of several books on English, traces our assorted ways of speaking across the country, concentrating on a different area for each 50-year period, starting in Chesapeake Bay and ending in Los Angeles.
We are struck by the oddness of speech in earlier America. A Bostonian visiting Philadelphia in 1818 noted that his burgherly hostess casually pronounced 「dictionary」 as 「disconary」 and 「again」 as 「agin.」 William Cullen Bryant of Massachusetts, visiting New York City around 1820, wrote not about the 「New Yawkese」 we would expect, but about locutions, now vanished, like 「sich」 for 「such」 and 「guv」 for 「gave.」 Even some aspects of older writing might throw us. Perusing The Chicago Tribune of the 1930s, we would surely marvel at spellings like 「crum,」 「heven」 and 「iland,」 which the paper included in its house style in the ultimately futile hope of streamlining English』s spelling system.
A challenge for a book like Bailey』s, however, is the sparseness of evidence on earlier forms of American English. The human voice was unrecorded before the late 19th century, and until the late 20th recordings of casual speech, especially of ordinary people, were rare. Meanwhile, written evidence of local, as opposed to standard, language has tended to be cursory and of shaky accuracy.
For example, the story of New York speech, despite the rich documentation of the city over all, is frustratingly dim. On the one hand, an 1853 observer identified New York』s English as 「purer」 than that found in most other places. Yet at the same time chronicles of street life were describing a jolly vernacular that has given us words like 「bus,」 「tramp」 and 「whiff.」 Perhaps that 1853 observer was referring only to the speech of the better-off. But then just 16 years later, a novel describes a lad of prosperous upbringing as having a 「strong New York accent,」 while a book of 1856 warning against 「grammatical embarrassment」 identifies 「voiolent」 and 「afeard」 as pronunciations even upwardly mobile New Yorkers were given to. So what was that about 「pure」?
Possibly as a way of compensating for the vagaries and skimpiness of the available evidence, Bailey devotes much of his story to the languages English has shared America with. It is indeed surprising how tolerant early Americans were of linguistic diversity. In 1903 one University of Chicago scholar wrote proudly that his city was host to 125,000 speakers of Polish, 100,000 of Swedish, 90,000 of Czech, 50,000 of Norwegian, 35,000 of Dutch, and 20,000 of Danish.
What earlier Americans considered more dangerous to the social fabric than diversity were perceived abuses within English itself. Prosecutable hate speech in 17th-century Massachusetts included calling people 「dogs,」 「rogues」 and even 「queens」 (though the last referred to prostitution); magistrates took serious umbrage at being labeled 「poopes」 (「dolts」). Only later did xenophobic attitudes toward other languages come to prevail, sometimes with startling result. In the early years of the 20th century, California laws against fellatio and cunnilingus were vacated on the grounds that since the words were absent from dictionaries, they were not English and thus violations of the requirement that statutes be written in English.
Ultimately, however, issues like this take up too much space in a book supposedly about the development of English itself. Much of the chapter on Philadelphia is about the city』s use of German in the 18th century. It』s interesting to learn that Benjamin Franklin was as irritated about the prevalence of German as many today are about that of Spanish, but the chapter is concerned less with language than straight history — and the history of a language that, after all, isn』t English. In the Chicago chapter, Bailey mentions the dialect literature of Finley Peter Dunne and George Ade but gives us barely a look at what was in it, despite the fact that these were invaluable glimpses of otherwise rarely recorded speech.
Especially unsatisfying is how little we learn about the development of Southern English and its synergistic relationship with black English. Bailey gives a hint of the lay of the land in an impolite but indicative remark about Southern child rearing, made by a British traveler in 1746: 「They suffer them too much to prowl amongst the young Negroes, which insensibly causes them to imbibe their Manners and broken Speech.」 In fact, Southern English and the old plantation economy overlap almost perfectly: white and black Southerners taught one another how to talk. There is now a literature on the subject, barely described in the book.
On black English, Bailey is also too uncritical of a 1962 survey that documented black Chicagoans as talking like their white neighbors except for scattered vowel differences (as in 「pin」 for 「pen」). People speak differently for interviewers than they do among themselves, and modern linguists have techniques for eliciting people』s casual language that did not exist in 1962. Surely the rich and distinct — and by no means 「broken」 — English of today』s black people in Chicago did not arise only in the 1970s.
Elsewhere, Bailey ventures peculiar conclusions that may be traceable to his having died last year, before he had the chance to polish his text. (The book』s editors say they have elected to leave untouched some cases of 「potential ambiguity.」) If, as Bailey notes, only a handful of New Orleans』s expressions reach beyond Arkansas, then exactly how was it that New Orleans was nationally influential as the place 「where the great cleansing of American English took place」?
And was 17th-century America really 「unlike almost any other community in the world」 because it was 「a cluster of various ways of speaking」? This judgment would seem to neglect the dozens of colonized regions worldwide at the time, when legions of new languages and dialects had already developed and were continuing to evolve. Of the many ways America has been unique, the sheer existence of roiling linguistic diversity has not been one of them.
The history of American English has been presented in more detailed and precise fashion elsewhere — by J. L. Dillard, and even, for the 19th century, by Bailey himself, in his underread 「Nineteenth-Century English.」 Still, his handy tour is useful in imprinting a lesson sadly obscure to too many: as Bailey puts it, 「Those who seek stability in English seldom find it; those who wish for uniformity become laughingstocks.」
John McWhorter』s latest book is 「What Language Is (and What It Isn』t and What It Could Be).」

⑷ 我驕傲我是英語課代表作文600字（要記敘文，關於英語課代表每天做的事，最後總結雖然辛苦，但很驕傲）
英語課代表也不例外。「領讀也不差呀？」說的倒好聽，你來試試。讀英語可不像你想像的那麼簡單，讀錯一字一詞，說不定就會被其他班幹部嘲笑，被同學諷刺。而且，如果讓老師聽到了，老師就會批評我：「班幹部不讀好讀准，怎麼給同學做榜樣呢？」
痛苦二：背英語
「老妹，背英語有啥痛苦的？我一天能背十幾來
篇呢！」老兄，你也不看看給誰背，我們英語老師挑剔極了，一個英語單詞背錯都不行。倘若，你背錯了，英語老師就會把你趕出去，背的一「英」不差
才剛剛及格。「什麼？你們老師怎麼這么嚴啊
！」光這還行
，可有時上課，老師還會讓我當著全班同學的面背，背不好又會出洋相，我為什麼這么苦啊，嗚~
痛苦三
：提問單詞
「你不是英語班長嗎，怎麼還怕這個？」正因為我是英語班長，所以我怕這個。我的成績差不多，但總是一起一落，一會高一會低，所以，免不了讓老師說幾句，老師總是說我，自高自大，一考好就驕傲。所以，每次上英語課的前一個夜晚，我都要在被窩里把學過的課文認認真真的看幾遍，可老師就是不提，我以為老師不提了，也就不看了，誰知老師偏偏就在那天提，老師這不是在整我嗎？
你們都認為當英語班長一定很好玩，可你知道我的痛苦嗎？我已經快要得英語課代表恐懼症了，你們誰來
救救我呀？
⑸ 記敘文．600字左右的作文求
花，是個多民族國家五十六個民族圍成一朵花，不同的民族，不同的風情。不一樣的風俗造就了不一樣的節日風俗而提到節日風俗，我首先會想到逛廟會，逛廟會這北京風俗相信大家已經久仰大名了，但真正見識過的估計也不多，那就讓我帶領大家去觀賞這一有趣的民俗。
大年初一，北京城內城外寺院都舉辦廟會，廟會是大型的集市。大清早，廟門外小攤便吆喝起來，一條街被擠得水泄不通，滿懷的好心情，漫步走進廟門，首先映入眼簾的便是此年的生肖物，絨毛的、瓷的、玉的琳琅滿目，使人眼花繚亂。玲瓏剔透的玩意兒排放在貨櫃上，整齊有序，很是吸人眼球。
參觀完精緻的工藝品，便來到食品一條街准備飽餐一頓，這里四處飄香，十里之外也能聞著香味趕來。食品街的都是小吃，聚集了八方美味，光是看看，都已經口水三尺玩累了，就到這里來，品味各色佳餚，定是舒服！聽聞北京集市的阿里巴巴羊肉串味美、肉肥，我也按捺不住激動的心情，找了幾家老手，一連要了十幾串，坐在小椅上邊吃邊看看繁市，好不快活，羊肉串真好吃，一連的羊肉串下肚，都還不過癮，誰叫北京的小吃色香味全呢？
吃飽喝足，隨我往前繼續觀賞，一路小跑，便來到兒童天地，這里有小孩玩耍的各種有獎游戲，也有新年才推出的稀有玩具，「氣槍打靶」、「綿羊拉車」、「力劈華山」，五花八門，各具特色廟會游戲有的刺激，有的有趣，無不讓人張大嘴巴睜大眼睛，大飽眼福， 其樂無窮，我
雖然沒玩（感覺忒幼稚！）但這些活動卻讓無數的小孩子歡天喜地。
玩夠了，告別游樂場，隨我一同去聽「國粹」，用心去感受文化的真諦 。不早早趕到演出戲場，那還真是難以看到台上演員的表演，劇場是十里八層被文藝愛好者圍得水泄不通。這兒的節目豐富多彩，層出不窮，有京劇、評劇、相聲、小品、啞劇等，一個連一個，讓台下的觀眾過足了癮，熟悉的哼上兩曲，不懂的，也用手在空中上下比劃，跟著旋律，搖頭晃腦，享受京劇的音韻，小品的歡快。演完一出，拍手聲響遍了整個場地，久久回盪在廟會的上空。
我東蹦西跳，早已汗如雨下，卻也樂在其中，雖然沒有鞭炮的喜慶，但也不失節日的氣氛，反而增添了無窮的樂趣，老廟會，新廟會，東西南北大聚會，它有它的獨特風韻，它有它的熱鬧。祖國孕育了不同的民族，不同的民風五十六枝花，各色千秋，可老北京的風情，卻讓我為之一爽！

和諧》
和諧，無處不在。它就像我們的朋友、親人一樣，隨時都在我們身邊。社會中，學校中，家庭中，大自然中，隨處都可以看到它美麗的身影……但是，它總是愛和我們捉迷藏，需要你去用眼睛發現，用心去感受……
社會和諧鏡頭：
在形形色色的社會中，處處都可以發現和諧。我就有過親身經歷……
記得我很小的時候，媽媽就教育我，一定要尊老愛幼，在公共汽車上遇到老人如果沒有座位，一定要主動大膽得把座位讓給他們。我點點頭，牢牢地把媽媽的話記在心裏面。不過，我還沒有碰到過，直到有一天……
媽媽帶我坐公共汽車出去，上了車，有空位，我便坐下了。過了沒多長時間，有一位滿頭銀發還拄著拐杖的矮個子老奶奶蹣跚地上了公共汽車。恰巧，車上也沒有了空位。我想：這不正是我樂於助人的好機會嘛！媽媽也轉過頭來看著我，她的眼神告訴我，她說：「遙遙，媽媽相信你能做好的！」於是，我站起來，從容地走到老奶奶身邊，溫柔地說：「老奶奶，您這樣站著很危險的！我把我的座位讓給您，您坐吧！」「小姑娘，那…謝謝你啦！」「不用謝不用謝！這是我應該的！」我微笑著說。我感到做完好事以後好快樂啊！我為社會增添了和諧，增添了美麗……我開心地笑了！……
學校和諧鏡頭：
「小鄧，我有道題不會，拜託給我講一下啦！」我笑著說。「沒問題！沒問題！什麼題啊？鄧大女俠幫你解決！」小鄧頑皮地說。「唔……這道題！給我講了啦！」我撒嬌地說。「我給你講啊！你要認真聽哦！聽不懂就直說！我可以再給你講！這個題，應該首先……然後……最後……」小鄧認真地講著，我也認真地聽著。「聽懂了嗎？」小鄧問。「嗯嗯！我明白啦！小鄧，謝謝你啦！」我高興地說。「不用謝！我們都是朋友嘛！朋友之間用不著這么客氣！」小鄧客氣地說。我感到心裡暖暖的，同學之間的這種和諧，是那樣溫馨……
別看我們女生天天和男生打打鬧鬧，其實我們那根本就算不上是打架，只不過是在鬧著玩兒罷了！我常常和自己班，別的班，別的年級的男生打打鬧鬧，我們那隻是在玩兒而已。貌似我們是「一對冤家」。我常常在放學路上碰到那些男生，每次都會說一句：「真是冤家路窄啊……」其實，只不過嘴上說著玩兒而已。有的時候，回頭想想，這些男生真的蠻可愛的！雖然他們總是故意給我找碴惹事兒，但是，他們都是和我鬧著玩兒的！這種「打打鬧鬧」的和諧，我喜歡！
老師和學生也非常和諧。我們的數學老師才工作兩年，很年輕，所以特別孩子氣！他和我們特別合得來。我們都愛和他開玩笑玩兒，他也不介意，也和我們開玩笑。而且每次考完試他都會幫我們分析錯題。我們的老班也是如此！總是和數學老師一起輔導那些班裡學習比較落後的同學，老師和學生的這種和諧，是那麼美麗……
家庭和諧鏡頭：
在家中，我和爸爸媽媽就像朋友一樣，無話不談！每次餐桌上，總是最熱鬧的時候！我們會把一天里的新鮮事說出來。快樂的事，大家一起分享；煩惱的事，大家一起解決……這種時光，總是那麼快樂！我們還常一起娛樂：打牌、下五子棋、看電視……這都是經常做的事。每次和爸爸媽媽在一起，總是那麼溫馨！
和爸爸媽媽打牌，是最常玩兒的！每次，我們總是沉浸在笑聲之中。因為老爸總是老末兒，所以他也有一個外號叫「末末兒」！
在我們家裡，小烏龜、小魚魚、小蟈蟈都是我們家庭的一員。它們也有自由，享受著和人一樣的快樂生活！它們可以聽音樂、看電視、吃對它們來說的美味……有空時，我和爸爸媽媽也會和這些小寶貝們玩兒！
家中，總是那麼其樂融融……
大自然和諧鏡頭：
現在人們不像原來了，現在都有了「保護環境，保護動物」的意識。獵人也越來越少了！人們都能夠從身邊的小事做起來保護環境。多多種植綠色植被。這多麼令人欣慰啊！而且很多稀有的野生動物都得到了人們的保護，使它們不會瀕臨滅絕，能夠生息繁衍……這都是人類的進步！這就像一幅幅美麗的篇章，讓人感動……只有大自然的這種和諧，才讓地球變得美麗……
和諧，處處皆有。和諧，就是這么容易做到。但同時，和諧也需要我們去創造，去維護……
===========================================================================
《尋找和諧》
「天空的和諧，是穿一身藍；森林的和諧，是披一身綠；陽光的和諧，如鑽石般耀眼；落日的和諧，留下了最後的美麗；而我所追求的和諧，是和好友一起去采擷——每一份友情，每一絲快樂，每一片希望，每一線陽光……」
和諧，便是一種幸福的感覺。
時光匆匆，流年似水。不知不覺中,我長大了.童年的記憶是一片片葉子，從童年的大樹上悄然飄落，便再也無法重新回到樹上，只是那片片葉子依然翠得耀眼。還記得，那個蹦蹦跳跳的小女孩總愛張開好奇的眸子仰望蔚藍的晴空，想融入那片藍；總愛和小夥伴們鑽在「小房子」里，看調皮的雨滴在微風中嬉戲。那時的天很藍，那時的草很青，那時的大自然是多麼和諧的一幅畫卷，那時的我徜徉在微風中，真的很幸福。
現在，我依然愛藍藍的天，愛藍天下美好的一切，卻鮮有時間和精力細細欣賞，偶爾抬頭望望，覺得有種陌生的親切，彷彿生活里少了許多情趣，平添了幾許憂煩和困惑。歲月也讓我明白了許多以前不曾明白的東西：人生本來就是充滿荊棘和坎坷的。
和諧，便是不和諧中的完美。
在這漫漫長途，要給自己信心，給自己希望，給自己拚搏的勇氣，給自己點一盞燈，去尋找屬於自己的幸福。和諧，此時已悄然根植於自己的心中。
而幸福是什麼？在我眼裡，幸福不是一疊厚厚的鈔票，一件華麗無比的衣裳；也不是遮掩痛苦的工具，貪圖片刻歡娛的美酒。幸福，應該是心靈深處微妙的感受，是一個人真真切切的感受。在你頹喪無助時，路人的一個微笑、一句問候都會帶給你幸福;幸福是你口渴難耐時一捧甘甜的泉水;幸福是你筋疲力盡時一張松軟的大床;幸福是你孤寂時一封遠方的素箋;幸福是你噩夢後一張慈祥的笑臉。
找到了幸福，我便看到了和諧的微笑。
成功是幸福，失敗也是幸福，那是一種酸楚的甜蜜。在任何時候你都要有勇氣對自己說：我不怕失敗，因為我的目標在前方，因為我有再爬起來的勇氣，因為失敗是一種幸福！
又是一片澈然晴空，絲絲陽光溫暖如昔。眼前的一切都是那樣美好，其實怎樣的世界才算和諧，答案就在你眼裡，就在你心中。
采擷幸福，給自己一份愉悅的心境；離幸福近些吧，你便找到了和諧。
