英語作文 篇1
Making a Difference: Tanya Pinto
This is the VOA Special English Development Report:
In two thousand five, Tanya Pinto was a successful young businesswoman in Dallas, Texas. But she decided to take three months off from work at an advertising company to visit her birthplace, India.
She volunteered at Mother Teresa's home for orphans in Kolkata. She also traveled, and saw children in great need.
TANYA PINTO: "And that experience was life changing. And that's why I decided to start a charity."
She returned to her job in Texas and began Baal Dan Charities. In Hindi, the name means "child donation."
India has an estimated eighteen million poor children. Some charity workers say the conditions on the streets are, if anything, worse than those shown in the film "Slumdog Millionaire." Many children depend on international charity projects like Baal Dan.
At first, Baal Dan provided street children with clothes. Today, the organization gives money to orphanages, schools and local projects. The money provides food, medicine, schoolbooks and some education. The work is centered in Kolkata, Hyderabad and Kerala province.
Tanya Pinto started her project with small donations from friends and co-workers.
TANYA PINTO: "I would pass them in the hallway and they would say, 'Hey, the next time you go back to India, here is twenty dollars, here is fifty dollars, here is ten dollars for the children.'"
Today, Baal Dan has other financial supporters in the United States. People organize events to raise money. A restaurant in Dallas donates money whenever anyone orders "Tacos for a Cause."
In the next several years, Tanya Pinto hopes to begin sponsoring an orphanage. She visits India as often as she can while working full-time at the advertising company. Her last trip was in May.
TANYA PINTO: "I will take the children on an outing as well. I will take them to the zoo or to the park. And so I'll do things that are really fun activities, because these are children who are living in unimaginable poverty. So I like to bring some fun into their lives."
(SOUND OF CHILDREN IN INDIA)
She talks about a trip when she visited a care center operated by a local group that her charity has helped. Two boys recognized her. They had met her at a shelter at a railway station the year before. The children, she says, were rescued from the streets and were doing well.
Tanya Pinto says you do not have to be wealthy or well known to help others.
TANYA PINTO: "Even if you are not a celebrity, if you are not rich, if you are not famous, you can do something to help make this world a better place."

英語作文 篇2
Excess Spending on Campus
A recent survey indicates that the monthly expenditure of a college student has been on the sharp rise.Many college students have no concept of thrift in their mind at all.
The following factors contribute to this excess spendin9.First of all.a(chǎn)s the only child oftheft families,many students are the apples in their families’eyes and naturally get move care and pocket money.Some are even spoiled and take spending money from their parents for granted.In addition,with the improvement ofliving standards,parents can also afford higher expenditure of their children.Moreover,some students like to pursue fashion and trends,which can be quite costly.Finally,campus love is another possible factor causing too much spending.
From my point ofview,college students should learn to be thrifty.We should limit our expenditure on daily necessities but not buy whatever we want regardless of their prices.The habit of thrift can help US form fight values and is favorable to our future development.
校園里的過度開銷
最近的一項(xiàng)調(diào)查顯示大學(xué)生每月的花銷正在急劇增加。很多大學(xué)生腦中根本根本沒有節(jié)儉的概念。
以下原因造成了這種浪費(fèi)花銷:首先,作為家里的獨(dú)生子女,很多學(xué)生是家人的掌上明珠,自然得到更多關(guān)心和零用錢。一些人還被寵壞了,把花父母的錢看成理所當(dāng)然。其次,隨著生活水平的提高,父母能夠承擔(dān)孩子更高的消費(fèi)。此外,一些學(xué)生喜歡追求時(shí)尚和潮流,這也花費(fèi)頗高。最后,校園戀愛可能是造成過度花銷的另一原因。
在我看來,大學(xué)生應(yīng)該學(xué)會(huì)節(jié)儉。我們的支出應(yīng)該限制在日常必需品,而不是不顧價(jià)格購買我們想要的.一切。節(jié)儉的習(xí)慣能幫助我們樹立正確的價(jià)值觀,并有利于我們的未來發(fā)展。
英語作文 篇3
誠信與職責(zé)
It is true that most of us value honesty highly。 However, nowadays we often confront confidence crisis such as cheating, overcharging, fake modities and so on。 I think that we should be honest because being honest is not only beneficial to ourselves but also to others and the whole society。 The reasons can be listed as follows。Firstly, only honest people can be truly respected by the others and can make more friends over a long period of time。
Secondly, honesty, which is the traditional virtue of the Chinese people, can make our life easier and more harmonious。 Thirdly, honesty can make our society more stable。 A case in point is that Singapore, a society featuring trustworthiness and integrity, has a paratively low criminal rate。
Responsbility can be understood in many ways。 for the parents , they have had the responsibility for caring for and fostering their children since the birth of their baby。for teachers,both in kindergartens and colleges,they also should be responsible for the study and life of their students,that is to say,teahers are the second parents of children somewhile。
for us,as a friend of others,it is our responsibility to help our friends when they are in trouble or faced with difficulties。 each one has the different responsibily based on their roles but we must take it for granted that we are responsible for the society。

英語作文 篇6
Success
When it comes to success, different people have different opinions about what makes it come true. Some people regard hard-working as an essential quality to success while others believe being clever would lead to success. From my point of view, I think perseverance and hard-working are indispensable for those who want to make an achievement.
Firstly, perseverance let people step closely towards success. Most people want to make a big difference to prove their value. People who set their goal and keep moving would make their dream come true. However, there are some people who set their goal but they stop at the difficulty would fail in the end. I think the difference between success and failure is perseverance. If we have perseverance, even if we are not clever, we will make a great difference, but if we not, we are doomed to lose. As we all know, Edison is a great inventor in the world. However, before he invented the bulb, he kept trying for tens of thousands of times to find a suitable wire. Let us imagine, if he gave up at the 999th, then how he couldn’t become so successful. So, I strongly believe that perseverance produces success.
Secondly, there is also a kind of people who are born with cleverness, I think they are lucky. Nevertheless, if they don’t make a hard work on their way to their goal, they, absolutely, will become loser. Whether we are gifted for intelligent, we must be hard-working so as to success. I regard hard-working as an efficient approach to be successful because I believe ‘pains and gains’. As for those who do not make great efforts on work, failure follows. In old times, there is a clever boy who can make excellent poem when he can talk. When his father found the little child’s cleverness, he just let the child make poems to show around while never let the boy learned anything. When the boy grew up, people forgot him because he lost the ability to compose poems and became ordinary as others. From this matter, we can see that only by hard-working can we get knowledge and make a good future.
Anyway, I think perseverance and hard-working are both important in our way to success for they enhance us and produce success.
