我是中吃货
阅读是人们在当今社会生存和发展所需的一项重要的社会文化技能。英语阅读，作为语言学习的四大基本技能之一，在英语学习中占有重要地位。我精心收集了500字英语短文，供大家欣赏学习!
Since I go to high school, I live in the school and stay away from my parents. I have three roommates, at the beginning, we have trouble in staying in the same room, but now we have got used to it. One of my roommates impresses me so much, since she comes to our room, she keeps the habit of reading the novel when we go to bed. She told me that when she lived with her parents, she dared not to read it because her mother would blame her for sleeping late. Now she is very happy that she is out of control, it seems that she is free. But I feel sorry for her, because she is short-sighted now, what’s more, she is lagging behind other students in the study. Staying away from her parents, she is not strong enough to behave herself. We should have the strong will and behave ourselves.
自从我上了高中，我就住在学校，远离父母。我有3个室友，刚开始，我们不习惯同处一室，但是如今，我们已经习惯了。有一个室友让我印象很深刻，自从她住进我们的房间，她就在我们睡觉的时候保持看小说的习惯。她告诉我们在她和父母住在一起的时候，她不敢看小说，因为她妈妈会责怪她那么晚睡觉。如今她很高兴再也不受控制了，似乎她得到了自由。但是我为她感到遗憾，因为她现在已经近视，而且，在学习方面也落后于其他同学。离开了父母，她不够强大，无法自律。我们应该有坚强的意志，并且自律。
Last night, as I was nothing to do, I searched the Internet and saw a good movie, which moved me deeply. The movie is made up of a real person. The story tells about a female principal who is from a famous primary school, she quits her job from the good school because she could do nothing to make the students better, the school asks her to obey to the parents’ will. The principle happens to see the news that a country kindergarten recruits a principle in the very low salary, she decides to do the job in case that the poor kids will lose the chance to be educated. The principle saves the kindergarten at last, she is so great. She shows to the people that the root of education is to care about the students and love them with heart.
昨晚，由于我没有事情做，我搜索了网络，看到了一部好的电影，深深地感动了我。电影是改编于一个真实的人物。故事讲述了一个来自小学名校的女校长，她辞掉了名校这份工作，因为她没有办法让学生变得更好，学校要求她遵从家长的意愿。这位校长偶然间看到消息说一所乡村幼儿园招聘低薪招聘一名校长，她决定做这份工作，以防这些贫困的孩子会失去受到教育的机会。这位校长最后拯救了这间幼儿园，她是如此的伟大。她向人们展示了教育的根本是关爱学生，并且用心爱学生。
I am the only child in my family, nowadays, people have the bad impression on the only child, they think the only child is spoiled by the parents, so they get bad temper and count on the parents so much. While I am not one of them, my parents are very strict to me, they never spoil me, when I make the mistake, they will tell me what the result will be which is caused by my mistake, so that I know I do the wrong thing and won’t do that again. My parents pay special attention to my independence, they will ask me to do the thing alone, sometimes they only teach me how to finish, but never give me a hand. To my parents’ education, at first, I feel they are unfair to me, but as I grow up, I am so thankful to them, they help me become a strong person.
在我的家庭里，我是独生子，如今，人们对独生子的印象很不好，他们觉得独生子被父母宠爱着，因此他们脾气不好，还很依赖父母。然而我和他们不同，我的父母对我很严格，他们从来不溺爱我，当我犯错误，他们会告诉我我的错误会造成的后果，这样我就知道自己做错了事，下次再也不犯这样的错误了。我的父母很注重我的独立性，他们会叫我去独立做事情，有时候他们只教我怎么去完成，但是从来不帮助我。对于父母的教育，刚开始，我觉得他们对我不公平，但是随着我长大，我很感激他们，他们帮助我成长为一个坚强的人。
There is a saying that man proposes, god disposes, which means man plan the things and the rest of the outcome lies in the luck. This saying reflects the connection between hard-work and luck, which is though sometimes we have worked so hard, luck occupies great position, the unexpected things happen and refrain us from succeeding. In order to be successful, people work so hard, they believe they can achieve their goals, but lacking luck stops them achieving their goals. So working hard doesn’t mean bringing people success directly, they just need to try more times, without luck, they still can make their goals. Luck can help people close to success, without hard-work, they can’t be successful. Hard-work and luck make people realize their goals, but without luck, people still can make it by trying more times.
有一句话说谋事在人，成事在天，意思是人们计划事情，剩下的结果依赖于运气。这句话反应了努力和运气之间的联系，那就是虽然有时候我们很努力工作，但是运气也占据了很重要的位置，意外的事情会发生，阻挡人们成功。为了取得成功，人们努力工作，他们相信能达到目标，但是运气的缺失让他们无法达到自己的目标。因此努力并不意味着能直接给人们带来成功，他们需要多试几次，没有运气，人们仍然可以达到目标。运气帮助人们接近成功，没有努力付出，无法成功。努力和运气能让人们实现目标，但是没有运气，人们多尝试几次，也能终将办到。

我选的这几篇属于比较简单的了，词汇量基础一般的应该都能看懂1愚人节April Fools' Day'To end our special news bulletin,' said the voice of the television announcer,'we are going over to the macaroni fields of Calabria.Macaroni has been grown in this area for over six hundred years.This last scene shows you what will happen at the end of the harvest:the famous Calabrian macaroni-eating competition!Signor Fratelli,the present champion,has won it every year since 1991.And that ends our special bulletion for today,Thursday,April 1st.We're now going back to the studio.'“作为专题新闻节目的结尾，”电视广播员说，"我们现在到卡拉布里亚的通心粉田里。通心粉在这个地区已经种植了600多年了。这最后一个镜头向您展示了收获之后将发生的事情：著名的卡拉布利亚人吃通心粉大赛！目前的冠军弗拉特里先生，自1991年以来，年年获胜。今天————4月1日，星期四————的专题新闻节目到此结束。现在我们回到电视演播室。Today's help“Today my friend and I are taking a walk.suddenly, we are seeing a boy sit on the chair,he is crying,we go and ask him.“what’s the matter with you” he tell us“I can’t find my dog can you help me”.“yes,I can”.And we help him find his dong .oh it stay underthe big tree!今天我和我的朋友一起去散步。突然我们看见一个男孩坐在椅子上，他哭的很伤心。我们走过去问他：“你怎么了”。他告诉我们：“我的狗不见了，你们能帮我找到它吗”。“是的，我们能帮你找到你的狗”然后我们帮助他找到了他的狗，原来是它呆在一棵大树下。2未来的冠军Future championsExperiments have proved that children can be instructed in swimming at a very young age.At a special swimming pool in Los Angeles ,children become expert at holding their breath under water even before they can walk.Babies of two months old do not appear to be reluctant to enter the water.It is not long before they are so accusotomed to swimming that they can pick up weights from the floor of the pool.A game that is very popular with these young swimmers is the underwater tricycle race.Tricycles are lined up on the floor of the poor seven feet under water.The children compete against each other to reach the other end of the pool.Many pedal their tricycles,but most of them prefer to push or drug them.Some children can cover the whole length of the pool without coming up for breath even once.Whether they wil ever become future Olympic champions,only time will tell.Meanwhile,they should encourage those among us who cannot swim five yards before they are grasping for air.实验证明，儿童在很小的时候就可以开始学习游泳。在洛杉矶的一个特制发游泳池里，孩子们甚至在还没有学会走路时就已经能熟练地在水下屏住呼吸了。两个月的婴儿并未显得不愿意入水。他们很快便适应了游泳，以致能捡起池底的物品。这些幼小的游泳运动员非常喜爱的一种游泳是水下三轮车比赛。三轮车并排放在7英尺深的游泳池底上。孩子们比赛谁先到达游泳池的另一端。很多孩子用脚蹬车，但多数孩子更愿意推或是拉着三轮车。有些孩子甚至能够跑完游泳池的全长而不用露出水面换气。他们将来是否能成为奥林匹克的冠军，这只能由时间来作出回答。与此同时，他们对我们中的那些游不了5码就已经喘不过气的人应该是一种鼓舞。3 太早和太晚Too early and too late Punctuality is a necessary habit in all public affairs in civilized society.Without it , nothing could ever be brought to a conclusion;everything would be in a state of chaos.Only in sparsely-populated rural community is it possible to disregard it.In ordinary living,there can be somne tolerance of unpunctuality.The intellectual,who is working on some abstruse problem,has everything coordinated and organized for the matter in hand .He is therefore forgiven if things fine.It is hard for energetic,quick-minded people to waste time,so they are often tempted to finish a job before setting out to keep an appointment.If no accidents occur on the way,like punctured tyres,diversions of traffic,sudden descent of fog,they wll be on time.They are often more industrious,useful citizens than those who are never late.The over - punctual can be as much a trial to others as the unpunctual.The guest who arrives half an hour too soon is the greatest nuisance.Some friends of my family had this irritatng habit.The only thing to do was ask them to come half an hour later than the other guests.Then they arrived just when we wanted them. If you are catching a train,it is always better to be comfortably early than even a fraction of a minute of a minute too late.Although being early may mean wasting a little time,this will be less than if you miss the train and have to wait an hour or more for the next one;and you avoid the frustration of arriving at the very moment when the train is drawing out of the station and being unabke to get on it.An even harder situation is to be on the young girl the first time she was travelling alone. She entered the station twenty minutes before the train was due,since her parents had impressed upon her that it would be unforgivable to miss it and cause the friends with whom she was going to stay to make two journeys to meet her.She gave her luggage to a porter and showed him her ticket.To her horror he said she was too hours too soon.She felt in her handbag for the piece of paper on which her father had written down all the details of the journey and gave it to the porter.He agreed that a train did come into the station at the time on the paper and that it did stop,but only to take on mail,not passengers.The girl asked to see a timetable,feeling sure that her father could not have made such a mistake.The porter went to fetch one and arrived back with the station master,who produced it with a flourish and pointed out a microscopic 'o' beside the time of the arrival of the train at his station;this title 'o' indicated that the train only stopped for mail.Just as that moment the train came into the station.The girl,tears streaming down her face,begged to be allowed to slip into the guard's van.But the station master was adamant:rules could not be broken.And she had to watch that train disappear towards her destination while she was left behind. 准时是文明社会中进行一切社交活动时必须养成的习惯。不准时将一事无成，时时都会陷入混乱不堪的境地。只有在人口稀少的农村，才可以忽视准时的习惯。在日常生活中，人们可以容忍一定程度的不准时、一个专心钻研某个复杂问题的知识分子，为了搞好手头的研究，要把一切都协调一支、组织周密。因此，他要是赴宴迟到了会得到谅解。但有些人不准时常常是因为掐钟点所致，他们常常会受到责备。精力充沛、头脑敏捷的人极不愿意浪费时间，因为他们常想做完一件事后再去赴约。要是路上没有发生如爆胎、改道、突然起雾等以外事故，他们是决不会迟到的。他们与那些从不迟到的人相比，常常是更勤奋有用的公民。早到的人同迟到的人一样令人讨厌。客人提前半小时到达是最令人讨厌的。我家有几个朋友就是有这种令人恼火的习惯。唯一的办法就是请他们比别的客人晚来半小时。这样，他们可以恰好在我们要求的时间到达。 如果赶火车，早到总比晚到好，哪怕早到一会儿也好。虽然早到可能意味着浪费一点时间，但这比误了火车、等上一个多小时坐下一班车浪费的时间要少，而且可以避免那种正好在火车驶出站时赶到车站，因上不去车而感到的沮丧。更难堪的情况是虽然及时赶到站台上，却眼睁睁地看着那趟火车启动，把你抛下。一个小姑娘第一次单独出门就碰到了这种情况。 在火车进站20分钟前她就进了车站。因为她的父母再三跟她说，如果误了这趟车，她的东道主朋友们就得接她两趟，这是不应该的。他把行李交给搬运工并给她看了车票。搬运工说她早到了两个小时，她听后大吃一惊。她从钱包里拿出一张纸条，那上面有她父亲对这次旅行的详细说明，她把这张纸条给了搬运工。搬运工说，正如纸条上所说，确有一趟火车在那个时刻到站，但她只停站装邮件，不载旅客。姑娘要求看一下时刻表，因为她相信父亲不会把这么大的事情给弄错。搬运工跑回去取时刻表，同时请来了站长。站长拿着时刻表样一挥手，指着那趟列车到站时刻旁边的一个很小的圆圈标记。这个标记表示列车是为装邮件而停车。正在这时，火车进站了。女孩泪流满面，央求让她悄悄地到押车员车厢里去算了。但站长态度坚决，规章制度不能破坏，姑娘只得眼看着那趟火车撇下她消逝在她要去的方向。
