Thanksgiving Day is coming. The people we should thank most are the teachers. Now I have some suggestions on how to express your1)gartitudeteachers.
Nowadays, the most annoying thing for teachers is that they don’t know what the children are thinking,so what they want is to tell the truth. It would be nice if every child could say a few words to the teachers during the Thanksgiving Day as the best gifts.
当前老师最烦恼的是不了解孩子的心理,因此最喜欢的是孩子们的实话实说。如果在庆祝感恩节期间,每个孩子能向老师说几句实实在在的心里话,那该多好啊!
1) gratitude ['grætɪtju:d] n.谢意;感激,感谢
2) inevitably [ɪn'evɪtəbli] adv.难免;不可避免地;必然地
As a teacher, the happiest thing is to see students become talents. So write a letter to your teacher on Thanksgiving Day and tell him about your situation about learning. When the teacher receives the letter, he must be very happy.
作为老师,最高兴的当然是看见自己教的学生成为有用之才。因此,在感恩节来临之际,给老师写一封信,告知自己的学习情况,当老师收到信时,心里肯定特别高兴。
The teachersare proud of good students and hope every student has a good future. Therefore, I think as a student, it is most meaningful thing to study hard.
老师以桃李芬芳为荣,总希望自己培育出的学生个个有出息。因此,我觉得,作为学生只有努力学习,以优异的成绩来感激老师的精心培育和呵护,这才是最有意义的。
Perhaps the teachers cannot accept expensive gifts,but send some red pens to express gratitude is very suitable. When teachers correct students’ homework,they2)inevitably use a red pen. So red pen is the most suitable present.
贵重的礼物老师或许不能接受,但是送几支红笔聊表心意却是非常合适的。身为老师,批改作业的时候难免用到红笔。所以说红笔是最合适不过的礼物了。
名师考点小结
1.annoying是形容词,意为“恼人的;讨厌的”,是annoy的ing形式。修饰对象为物,例如:
You must have found my attitude annoying.
你肯定觉得我的态度讨人厌。
These flies are annoying. 这些苍蝇真使人心烦。
This interruption is very annoying.这样打岔令人讨厌。
2.express是动词,意为“表达;表示;显而易见”。express one’s thanks意为“表示谢意”;express oneself意为“表达自己的意思”例如:
Teachers have expressed concern about the changes.
教师对这些变化表示忧虑。
His views have been expressed in numerous speeches.
他已在无数次发言中表达了自己的观点。
3.correct作形容词时,意为“正确的;合适的;符合公认准则的;得体的”。sth be correct意思是“某事是正确的”,例如:
Your answer is correct.你的回答的是正确的。
作动词时,意为“改正;批改;指出错误”。例如:
Read through your work and correct any mistakes that you find.
从头至尾看一遍你们的作业,发现的错误都要改正过来。
