An embarrassing experienceAlthough it has been eight years since I graduated from my junior high school where I had an embarrassing experience that I would never forget in my life. I regard it as an unforgettable experience because not only it made me uncomfortable but also it imitated me to work harder than before. Therefore it is an unforgettable and precious experience to some extent.In September 2006, I finally completed all my primary education and got into the junior high school. Just like other kids, I was full of curiosity and excitement when the school life had began. About four weeks later, the school held a opening ceremony to reward the students who have had an excellent performance in the entrance examination. At that time, I was a little proud and I was sure that I would be rewarded beyond doubt. When the headmaster was giving a welcome speech which made me feel tedious on the stage, I was kinking what prize I would receive. Finally, another teacher came to the center of the stage and began to read the name list on which the students would be rewarded. After three students who won the first prize left the stage, I knew that would be called the roll soon. Sure enough, the teacher called my name and I stood up without hesitation. However, another boy almost stood up at the same time. All the people fix attention on the boy and me with confounded. To be honest, I was puzzled too. “Something must bewrong,”the crowds began to talk in a whisper. After verification, the teacher spoke again “A from class one won the second prize.”At the sound of this, I was astonished because I was in class four. I never know the boy who had the same name with me before, while I would remember him for a long time. It is no exaggeration to say that I was so awkward that my face turned red totally and I sat down as soon as I can.I put my head down and dared not to gaze others. The god seems to play a trick on me and again “A from class four won the third prize” came to my ears. I couldn’t believe my ears until my classmates reminded me. I stood up again and went to the stage with very conflicting feelings. Anyway, I just won the third; nevertheless, the boy who has the same name to me won the second prize. I felt sorry for myself and inquired myself why not me unremittingly. After the embarrassing experience, I studied harder and won the first prize in the next term ultimately.Although it has been eight years since I graduated from my junior high school where I had an embarrassing experience that I would never forget in my life.

Jack 2012180231007An Embarrassing ExperienceThe embarrassing experience I met with three years ago, which was the most embarrassing one I have experienced. I remember it happened on a Sunday afternoon when I was in my high school. Because it was a hot summer, a few of my friends and I came to a local reservoir and took off our clothes and jumped into the water. Wow, it was really cool. What a nice reservoir. However, something unexpected happened when we were on a high. Several unknown kids seized the chance and took all our clothes away. Look, they were escaping. “Oh, no, this is inane.”We got out of the water instantly and began to chase them. I guess you are developing this picture in your mind: several naked teenagers were trying their best to chase several nasty little kids, we shouted: “stop! Stop! Stop!” That’s right, that’s what it happened. It was like a race competition between us and several little kids, and it was obviously unfair for us because we were barefoot. And at last, unfortunately, we lost the competition because we had to give it up due to our foot pain. Now, if you want to know more, I’d like to tell you a secret: we went back to school at midnight that day, with some leaves covering our bodies.。

Unit 1 My Most Embarrassing experienceI had my most embarrassing experience when I was in the second year of college. During that period of time, I often like to chat with my friends by passing notes in class. My bitter story happened one Tuesday morning, when our English teacher was busy writing on the blackboard, trying to teach us, in her monotonous voice, the difference between “tolerable” and “tolerant”.The teacher was hard-working, but I really wanted to share my good mood with my best friend, Tony. Therefore, I picked up my pen and wrote on a slip of paper, “Hey, I want to tell you something that will make you really envious of me,”and then I passed the slip to him. He quickly opened it and read it. Being too curious, he wasted no time writing on the note some words and passed it back. “What is it? Tell me immediately!” he asked. “Sally just gave me her cell phone number.” I responded. I could not wait to see his jealous face.However, when he got my note, something unexpected happened. The note was grabbed by another hand. To my shock, the teacher was standing in front of Tony. She read the note in her hand loudly and looked sternly around the whole class. “Who passed the note to Tony? Who was so lucky to get Sally’s phone number?” She asked. All the class started to whisper, and I vaguely heard them talking about who started the passing of the note. My face turned red, and my heart beat quickly. Of course, those who sat around me knew I was the culprit. They looked at me, giggling quietly. Meanwhile, Sally blushed a deep crimson and looked very angry. She glared at me as if to say, “I am going to kill you.”I did not stand up to admit I was the offender, but I felt so embarrassed that I really wished that there had been a place for me to hide myself. After the incident, I did not dare to pass notes in class anymore.我最尴尬的经历我有了最尴尬的经历当我在大学的第二年时。

As we all know, in most cases, the men's room is on the left and the women's room is on the right. As usual, I went to the left room straightly. After a moment, when I walked out, I saw a young boy walking out of the right room. We looked face to face for seconds and turned head back. There is a notice on the door behind me, which reads ' Women's'. I run away hurriedly and my face turned red at once.What an embarrassing experience it is![此文档可自行编辑修改,如有侵权请告知删除,感谢您的支持,我们会努力把内容做得更好]精选文档。
embarrassing英语作文English: One of the most embarrassing moments in my life happened during a school presentation in front of the whole class. I had prepared diligently for weeks, but when I stood up to speak, I completely blanked out. I fumbled over my words, stuttered uncontrollably, and couldn't remember any of the key points I had wanted to make. The more I struggled, the more flustered I became, and it felt like an eternity before I finally managed to stumble through the rest of my presentation. As I sat down, I could feel my face burning with shame as my classmates stared at me in disbelief.It was a moment I will never forget, and it taught me the importance of remaining calm under pressure and not letting my nerves get the best of me.中文翻译: 我生命中最尴尬的时刻之一发生在学校为整个班级做演讲的时候。

我最尴尬的经历作文英文Embarrassment. It's a feeling that most of us have experienced at least once in our lives. For some, it's a fleeting sensation that fades away with time. For others, it's a lingering reminder of a moment gone wrong. My most embarrassing experience was not just an awkward encounter, but a life-changing event that taught me valuable lessons about myself and the world.It was a typical weekday morning, and I was runninglate for school. As I dashed through the house, grabbing my books and backpack, I heard my mom call out, "Don't forget your lunch!" I turned to see her holding a sandwich wrapped in tin foil. "Here, take this with you."I grabbed the sandwich and stuffed it into my bag, barely acknowledging her as I hurried out the door. As I was walking to the bus stop, I realized I had forgotten my gloves. It was a cold winter day, and my hands were alreadystarting to feel the chill. I turned back to grab them, only to discover that I had locked myself out of the house. Panic set in. I frantically searched for a spare key, but there was no time. The bus was coming, and I had to get to school. With a sigh of resignation, I stuffed my hands into my pockets and braved the cold.The bus ride was uncomfortable. My teeth were chattering, and I could feel my nose starting to run. I fumbled in my bag for a tissue, only to pull out the sandwich my mom had made for me. The foil wrapper came loose, and the sandwich fell onto the seat next to me.I looked around, hoping no one had noticed. But it was too late. A few curious eyes had already caught the sight of the mess. I quickly scooped up the sandwich and tried to stuff it back into my bag, but it was too late. The damage was done.At school, I walked with my head down, avoiding eye contact with my classmates. I felt everyone's gaze on me, judging me for my clumsiness. The embarrassment was unbearable.Lunchtime came, and I sat alone at a table, trying to ignore the stares and whispers around me. Suddenly, afriend approached and handed me a sandwich. "I saw what happened on the bus. Here, eat this."I was too embarrassed to speak, but I gratefully accepted the sandwich. As I bit into it, I realized it was the same sandwich my mom had made for me. It tasted different now, though. It tasted like care and love, and it filled me with warmth.That embarrassing moment taught me a valuable lesson.It taught me that embarrassment is not a permanent stain on my character. It's a temporary feeling that can be overcome with time and understanding. It taught me to be morecareful and organized, to avoid future embarrassments.More importantly, it taught me about the kindness of others. In my moment of shame, my classmates did not mock me or turn their backs. Instead, they reached out with compassion and understanding. That sandwich was not just food; it was a symbol of their support and friendship.In hindsight, I am grateful for that embarrassing moment. It made me stronger and more resilient. It taughtme to laugh at myself and not take life too seriously. Andit taught me to appreciate the kindness of others, even in the face of embarrassment.That day, I learned that embarrassment is not a roadblock to happiness or success. It's a stepping stone to growth and understanding. It's a part of life's journey,and it makes us who we are. So, while I may still feel embarrassed at times, I know that it's okay. Because in the end, it's all part of the beautiful messiness of life.**我最尴尬的经历**尴尬,这是大多数人在生活中至少经历过一次的情感。

It can range from a mild feeling of unease to a full-blown panic attack. While some embarrassing moments are funny to look back on, others can leave a lasting impact.One of the most embarrassing experiences I’ve ever had occurred when I was in high school. I was in my sophomore year and taking a Spanish class. I was sitting in the backof the room, trying to focus on the lesson, when I felt a sudden rumbling in my stomach. I tried to ignore it, butthe rumbling grew louder and louder.Soon, I realized that I couldn’t hold it in any longer.I raised my hand and asked the teacher if I could go to thebathroom.

I desperately looked around for a placeto hide, but there was nowhere to go.Suddenly, I spotted an open door. I rushed inside and saw that it was a janitor’s closet. I quickly closed the door behind me and hoped that no one would come in.I stood in the closet for a few minutes, trying to calm myself down.

感受到惊讶的一次经历作文英文It was a sunny afternoon when I decided to go for a hike in the nearby forest. I had been feeling a bit cooped up in the city and craved some fresh air and a chance to reconnect with nature. As I set out on the trail, I was filled with a sense of excitement and anticipation for the adventure that lay ahead.The first part of the hike was relatively uneventful as I made my way through the familiar terrain. I enjoyed the sights and sounds of the forest - the rustling of leaves in the gentle breeze the chirping of birds overhead. After about an hour of steady climbing, I reached a point where the trail branched off in two different directions. Unsure of which way to go, I paused for a moment to consult my map.As I stood there deliberating, movement in the corner of my eye caught my attention. I turned my head and was met with the most unexpected and awe-inspiring sight - a majestic black bear emerged from the undergrowth and ambled onto the trail just a few yards away from where I was standing. My heart immediately began to race as a wave of both excitement and trepidation washed over me. Ihad never seen a bear in the wild before and the sheer size and power of the animal left me feeling both amazed and slightly terrified.For what felt like an eternity, the bear and I stood there staring at each other, sizing each other up. I tried to remain as still and calm as possible, knowing that any sudden movements could provoke an aggressive response. The bear seemed unbothered by my presence, casually sniffing the air and continuing on its way down the trail. As it disappeared back into the dense foliage, I let out a deep breath that I didn't even realize I had been holding.In the aftermath of the encounter, I was left feeling a mix of emotions. On one hand, I was exhilarated to have had such a close and personal experience with a wild animal. It was a moment of pure awe and wonder, a reminder of the incredible power and majesty of nature. On the other hand, the encounter had also filled me with a sense of vulnerability and respect for the potential dangers that lurk in the wilderness.As I continued on my hike, I found myself constantly scanning the surrounding area, hyper-alert to any signs of movement or unusual activity. The peaceful tranquility that I had previously felt had been replaced by a heightened sense of vigilance and caution. Every snap of a twig or rustle of leaves had me on edge, my eyes darting aroundnervously.Despite the lingering feelings of unease, I couldn't help but feel a deep sense of gratitude for the experience. It had been a powerful reminder of the raw, untamed beauty of the natural world and the humbling realization that we as humans are not the sole masters of this planet. We are simply visitors, guests in the domain of the wild creatures that call these forests and mountains home.In the days and weeks that followed, I found myself reflecting on the encounter more and more. I replayed the scene in my mind, marveling at the sheer size and power of the bear, the way it had moved with such effortless grace and confidence. I thought about the fragility of my own existence, how quickly the tables could have turned had the bear perceived me as a threat.But beyond the sense of awe and respect, the experience had also left me with a deeper appreciation for the natural world and a renewed commitment to protecting it. I realized that moments like these, where we are confronted with the raw, unfiltered beauty and danger of nature, are increasingly rare in our modern, urbanized world. They are precious reminders of the delicate balance that exists between humans and the natural environment, and the importance of preserving and respecting that balance.In the end, my unexpected encounter with the black bear on the hiking trail had been a profoundly transformative experience. It had shaken me out of my everyday routine and forced me to confront the raw power and unpredictability of the natural world. And while the memory of that moment still fills me with a sense of both excitement and trepidation, I wouldn't trade it for anything. It was a reminder that the world is a vast and wondrous place, full of surprises and adventures waiting to be discovered.。
沮丧经历的英语作文Life is a tapestry of experiences, some vibrant and joyful, while others are somber and challenging. One such experience that left a profound impact on me was a moment of deep disappointment that I encountered a few years ago.It was the day of the regional spelling bee competition, an event I had been preparing for tirelessly. I had spent countless hours memorizing complex words, their origins, and their usage in sentences. My confidence was high, fueled by the support of my family and the hours of practice that had become a part of my daily routine.The competition was intense, with participants from various schools demonstrating remarkable skill. As the rounds progressed, the words grew more intricate, and the pressure mounted. I was in the top five when the unexpected happened. The word given to me was "xenodiagnosis," a term related to medical entomology. I had practiced it, but in the heat of the moment, my mind went blank. I stumbled, and to my dismay, I misspelled it.The disappointment was crushing. I had let myself down, but more importantly, I felt as though I had let my family and my coach down. The journey back home was a silent one, my thoughts a whirlwind of self-reproach and regret. It was a humbling experience, a stark reminder that even with the best preparation, life can throw curveballs that we are not readyfor.However, this disheartening experience was not without its silver lining. It taught me valuable lessons about resilience, humility, and the importance of grace under pressure. It wasa catalyst for personal growth, pushing me to confront myfears and to approach future challenges with a renewed senseof determination.In the years that followed, I applied the lessons learnedfrom that day to various aspects of my life. I learned to accept defeat with dignity and to use it as a stepping stone towards success. The experience, while painful at the time, became a pivotal moment that shaped my character and my approach to life's adversities.In conclusion, the spelling bee incident was a significant disheartening experience that tested my resolve and forced me to reassess my strategies for dealing with failure. It was a stark lesson in the unpredictability of life and the importance of maintaining a positive attitude in the face of setbacks. Through it all, I emerged stronger, more self-aware, and better equipped to handle whatever life might throw my way.。
我最尴尬的经历,背书大赛英语作文My Most Embarrassing ExperienceDo you ever have those days where you wish you could just disappear? Like poof, vanish into thin air and never have to show your face again? Well, let me tell you about the most embarrassing day of my entire life so far. Just thinking about it makes me want to crawl under my bed and hide forever!It was a perfectly normal Friday morning. I woke up, got dressed, ate my breakfast, and headed off to school like every other day. Little did I know, that day was going to be anything but normal.My first couple classes went by pretty uneventfully. It wasn't until English class that things started to get weird. Mrs. Patterson told us we were going to have a surprise quiz on vocabulary words. Ugh, I hate pop quizzes! But I had studied those words last night, so I felt okay about it.Mrs. Patterson passed out the quizzes, and we all started writing away. I was breezing through, feeling confident. That is, until I got to the word "diarrhea." How exactly do you spell that again? Is it "d-i-a-r-r-h-e-a" or "d-i-a-r-r-h-o-e-a"? I just could not remember.In a moment of sheer panic, I raised my hand. "Yes, Billy?" Mrs. Patterson called on me. This is where things went horribly, terribly wrong.Instead of just asking how to spell the word, I blurted out at the top of my lungs: "How do you spell that word, you know, the one for when you have runny poop?!"The entire class froze and went silent. You could have heard a pin drop. Everybody's heads swiveled towards me with looks of pure shock and disbelief. Even Mrs. Patterson's jaw dropped open.My face instantly turned beet red. I wanted to melt into a puddle and get flushed down the toilet. What had I done?! I couldn't take the embarrassment, so I did the only logical thing - I grabbed my backpack and ran out of the classroom as fast as my little legs could carry me.I spent the rest of the day hiding in the bathroom stall, trying not to cry from humiliation. How could I ever show my face in that classroom again after that mortifying outburst? Heck, how could I even go back to that school? I was going to be known as "The Runny Poop Kid" for the rest of my life!When the final bell rang, I had to suck it up and leave my safe bathroom hideaway. I kept my head down, desperately hoping nobody would notice me as I made a beeline for the exit. No such luck."Hey Runny Poop! Need to use the bathroom?" Some older kid shouted at me, followed by a chorus of laughter from his friends. I felt like I wanted to die right then and there.I finally made it home and locked myself in my room, never to come out again. Well, not really, but I definitely avoided everybody for a good few days after that incident.My mom had to practically drag me back to school that next Monday. "It'll be okay, everybody has embarrassing moments sometimes," she tried to reassure me. Yeah right, has she ever accidentally yelled about diarrhea in front of her whole class before? I doubted it.I walked through those school doors with my head hung low, preparing for the worst. But you know what? It actually wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Sure, there were a few jerks who made dumb jokes. But most people had already moved on and forgotten about it. Kids' attention spans are so short, thank goodness!Mrs. Patterson pulled me aside and said she appreciated my "creativity" in asking about that word, though she suggested I could have phrased it a bit more delicately next time. She reminded me that we're all friends there, no need to be embarrassed. I have to admit, she had a point - my classmates were mostly cool about it.Over time, "The Runny Poop Incident" (as I now call it) became an iconic story and kind of an inside joke among my friend group. We can laugh about it now, but man, I sure learned my lesson about waiting to raise my hand until after I carefully think through how I want to phrase things!Maybe my horrifying experience can serve as a cautionary tale: Think before you blurt, kids. Unless of course, you want your legacy to be the girl who asked about diarrhea in front of the whole class! But hopefully your most embarrassing moment won't top that...though I have a feeling mine will go down in elementary school history!。
置身事内英文读后感英文回答:Being immersed in an event or situation can be both exhilarating and challenging. It allows us to fully experience and understand the circumstances, but it canalso be overwhelming and intense. In my personal experience, I have found myself in situations where I was completely immersed in the moment.One such instance was when I attended a music festival. The atmosphere was electric, with people dancing, singing, and enjoying the music. I found myself getting lost in the music, forgetting about everything else around me. It wasas if time stood still, and all that mattered was the music and the energy of the crowd. I danced and sang along with strangers, forming connections and bonds in that momentthat felt incredibly special.Another example of being immersed in a situation waswhen I was traveling in a foreign country. I didn't speak the language fluently, and I was completely out of my comfort zone. However, I embraced the experience and immersed myself in the local culture. I tried new foods, learned basic phrases in the local language, and interacted with the locals. This allowed me to truly understand and appreciate the culture in a way that I wouldn't have been able to if I had stayed within my comfort zone. It was challenging at times, but it was also incredibly rewarding.中文回答:置身事内可以让人既兴奋又挑战。
难忘恐惧经历英语作文Title: A Terrifying Experience I'll Never Forget。
Fear is a universal emotion, and everyone has experienced moments that send shivers down their spine. Among the multitude of experiences in my life, one stands out vividly—an encounter with fear that left an indelible mark on my memory.It was a warm summer evening, the kind where the air hangs heavy with humidity, and the world seems to slow down.I was out for a stroll in the woods near my neighborhood, seeking solace in the embrace of nature after a long day. The dense foliage cast eerie shadows as the setting sun painted the sky in shades of crimson and gold.Lost in my thoughts, I wandered deeper into the forest, oblivious to the passage of time. The tranquility of the surroundings lulled me into a false sense of security, andI let my guard down, unaware of the danger lurking in theshadows.Suddenly, a rustling noise shattered the silence,jolting me out of my reverie. My heart skipped a beat as I froze in place, my senses on high alert. I strained my ears, trying to discern the source of the sound, but all I could hear was the pounding of my own heart.Then, out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpseof movement—a dark shape slithering through the underbrush. Panic surged through me as I realized I was not alone inthe woods. My mind raced with terrifying possibilities,each more sinister than the last.In that moment of paralyzing fear, time seemed to stand still. Every instinct screamed at me to run, to flee from the unknown danger lurking in the shadows. But my legs refused to move, rooted to the spot by fear's icy grip.As the darkness deepened and the rustling grew louder, my imagination conjured up images of predatory beastslurking in the darkness, ready to pounce at any moment. Mybreath came in ragged gasps, and cold sweat beaded on my brow as I braced myself for the inevitable confrontation.Then, just as suddenly as it had begun, the rustling ceased, and the forest fell silent once more. Trembling with adrenaline, I slowly exhaled, the tension draining from my body like water from a punctured dam. Though the danger had passed, the memory of that moment would linger with me for years to come.In the aftermath of that harrowing experience, I emerged with a newfound respect for the power of fear. It is a primal instinct, a force that can paralyze or propel us, depending on how we choose to confront it. And though the memory of that terrifying encounter still sends shivers down my spine, it also serves as a reminder of my own strength and resilience in the face of adversity.In conclusion, the fear I experienced in the depths of those woods is a chapter of my life that I will never forget. It taught me valuable lessons about courage, perseverance, and the importance of staying vigilant in theface of danger. And though I may never fully shake off the lingering sense of unease, I am grateful for the experience, for it has shaped me into the person I am today.。

Here, I will share a personal experience of an embarrassing moment and how I dealt with it.It was a sunny day, and I was walking to the park to meet up with some friends. As I was walking, I noticed a group of people ahead of me. I didn't pay much attention to them and continued on my way. However, as I got closer, I realized that the group of people was actually my friends, and they were waiting for me. I felt a sudden rush of embarrassment as I realized that I had completely walked past them without even recognizing them.As I approached my friends, I could feel my face turning red with embarrassment. They all started laughing and teasing me about how I had completely missed them. I tried to laugh it off and make a joke about it, but deep down, I was feeling extremely embarrassed. I couldn'tbelieve that I had been so oblivious and had completely walked past my friends without even realizing it.In that moment, I had a choice to make. I could either let the embarrassment consume me and ruin the rest of my day, or I could choose to brush it off and move on. I decided to take the latter approach. I laughed along with my friends, making light of the situation and acknowledging my own silliness. I didn't let the embarrassment get the best of me, and instead, I chose to enjoy the day with my friends.Looking back, I realize that embarrassing moments are a part of life, and it's important not to take them too seriously. Everyone experiences embarrassing moments from time to time, and it's how we choose to react to them that really matters. By choosing to laugh it off and not dwell on the embarrassment, I was able to move past the situation and continue enjoying my day.In conclusion, embarrassing moments are a natural part of life, and it's important not to let them get the best ofus. By choosing to react with humor and grace, we can overcome embarrassing situations and continue on with our day.

令我尴尬的经历英语作文英文回答:Embarrassing moments are an inevitable part of life. They can happen to anyone, at any time, and can leave us feeling humiliated, ashamed, or even angry. While some embarrassing moments are quickly forgotten, others can stay with us for a long time and continue to cause us distress.One of the most embarrassing moments of my life happened when I was in high school. I was in my English class, and we were having a discussion about the book we were reading. I was called on to answer a question, and I completely froze. My mind went blank, and I couldn't remember anything about the book. I stood there for a few seconds, staring at my teacher and the rest of the class, feeling my face turn red. Finally, I managed to stammer out a few words, but they were completely incoherent. The whole class erupted in laughter, and I felt like I wanted to crawl into a hole and die.I was so embarrassed that I wanted to run out of the classroom and never come back. But I knew that I couldn'tdo that, so I just sat there and tried to make myself invisible. The rest of the class went by in a blur, and I couldn't wait to get out of there.After class, I went to the bathroom and splashed some water on my face. I looked in the mirror and saw that my face was still red and my eyes were puffy from crying. I couldn't believe that I had made such a fool of myself.I went back to my dorm room and crawled into bed. Ijust wanted to forget about the whole thing, but I couldn't.I kept replaying the scene in my head over and over again, and I cringed every time.The next day, I went back to class and tried to actlike nothing had happened. But I could still feel thestares of my classmates on me, and I knew that they wereall thinking about what had happened the day before. I was so self-conscious that I could barely focus on the lesson.I finally got through the day, and I was so relieved when the bell rang. I ran out of the classroom and went back to my dorm room. I was so glad to be alone, and I just wanted to crawl into bed and hide.But as I lay there, I started to think about what had happened. I realized that I had overreacted. Yes, it had been embarrassing, but it wasn't the end of the world. Everyone makes mistakes, and I was no exception.I got out of bed and went back to class. I was still nervous, but I was determined to not let what had happened get to me. I participated in the discussion, and I even answered a few questions correctly.I'm glad that I went back to class that day. I realized that I am stronger than I thought I was, and that I can handle anything that life throws my way.中文回答:令我难忘的尴尬经历。

But the vagrant was unaware of the trouble and picked up another piece, the CEO was increasingly impatient and angry, he glared at the vagrant and grabbed a piece as the last warning. Unfortunately, the vagrant picked up the last piece, it seemed that the vagrant would never stop.Eventually, the CEO burst out and said: “That is disgusting! What’s wrong with you? You should be ashamed of yourself, you should go out and get a job instead of eating other people’s food.”Then the waitress served up a same pizza and explained that they ordered the same kind of pizza. The CEO felt confused and embarrassed. “Why don’t you tell me that’s your pizza?”, the CEO asked.” I may not have much but I’m always happy to share.”, the vagrant answered.The CEO was enlightened and offered to share the new pizza with the vagrant.。
尴尬经历英语作文An Embarrassing Experience。
It was a hot summer day, and I was at the beach with my friends. We were all having a great time, playing in the water and soaking up the sun. I was feeling confident and carefree, until something happened that made me wish I could disappear.We had been swimming for a while when I decided to take a break and lay out on the sand. I found a nice spot and spread out my towel, ready to relax and enjoy the beautiful weather. As I was lying there, I noticed a group of people nearby who were playing beach volleyball. They were all having a great time, and I couldn't help but feel a little envious of their energy and enthusiasm.Feeling inspired, I decided to join in on the game. I got up from my towel and walked over to the group, eager to show off my volleyball skills. I introduced myself andasked if I could join them, and they were more than happy to have me on their team. I was feeling excited and ready to impress everyone with my athletic abilities.The game started, and I was doing my best to keep up with the fast-paced action. I was running around, divingfor the ball, and trying to make some impressive plays. However, it wasn't long before disaster struck. As I went in for a particularly ambitious dive, I completely misjudged the distance and ended up face-planting into the sand.I could feel my face turning bright red as I quickly got up and brushed myself off, trying to play it cool. But it was too late – everyone had seen my embarrassing blunder, and they were all laughing and pointing at me. I felt like I wanted to disappear into the sand as I tried to laugh it off and pretend like it was no big deal.After that, I was too embarrassed to continue playing, so I made some excuse about needing to reapply sunscreen and slinked back to my towel. I could feel the eyes of theother beachgoers on me as I walked away, and I couldn't shake the feeling of humiliation.The rest of the day was a blur of embarrassment andself-consciousness. I couldn't stop replaying the moment in my head, and I wished I could go back in time and make a different choice. I tried to distract myself by swimming and reading, but I couldn't shake the feeling of being the center of attention for all the wrong reasons.As the sun began to set and it was time to pack up and head home, I was relieved that the day was finally coming to an end. I couldn't wait to get away from the beach and escape the prying eyes of the other people there. I knew that I would never be able to forget the embarrassing experience, but I hoped that with time, I would be able to laugh about it and move on.Looking back on that day, I can't help but cringe at the memory of my embarrassing moment on the beach. It was a humbling experience that taught me the importance of humility and not taking myself too seriously. While it wasdefinitely a low point, I know that I can use it as a reminder to laugh at myself and not let embarrassing moments define me.。

以下是店铺为大家搜索整理的2017年公共英语三级考试阅读模拟测试题,希望对正在关注的您有所帮助!Section II Reading( 50 minutes)PartADirections:Read the following two texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Ma——your ansumrs on ANSWER SHEET 1.Text 1An embarrassing experienceIt was the small hours of the morning when we reached London Airport. I had cabled Lond trom Amsterdam, and there was a hired car to meet, but there was one more unfortunate happening before I reached my fiat. In all my travels I have never, but for that once, been required by the British customs to open a single bag or to do more than state that I carried no goods liable to duty. I was, of course, my fault; the extreme tiredness and nervous tension of the journey had destroyed my diplomacy. I was, for whichever reason, so fired that I could hardly stand, and to the question, "have you read this?" I replied with extreme foolishness, "Yes, hundreds of times. ""And you have nothing to declare?""Nothing. ""How long have you been out of this country?""About three months. ""And during that time you have acquired nothing?""Nothing but what is on the list I have given you. "He seemed momentarily at a loss, but then he attacked. The attack, when it came, was utterly unexpected."Where did you get that watch?"I could have kicked myself. Two days ago, when playing water games with a friend in the bath, I had forgotten to take off my ROLEX OYSTER, and it had, not unnaturally, stopped. I had gone into the market and bought, for twelve shillings and six pence, an ugly time piece that made a strange noise. It had stopped twice, without any reason, during the journey.I explained, but I had already lost face. I produced my own watch from a pocket, and added that I should be grateful if he would confiscate the replacement."It is not a question of confiscation," he said, "there is a fine for failing to declare dutiable goods. And now may I please examine that Rolex?"It took another quarter of an hour to persuade him that the Rolex was not contraband; then he began to search my luggage.26. When did the writer arrive at London airport?[A] In the early morning. [B] Late at night.[ C] At noon. [ D] Late in the morning.27. What can we conclude from the questions asked by the customs officer?[ A] He was just doing his duty by asking the passenger some usual questions.[ B ] He must have noticed the writer' s ugly watch.[ C ] He wanted to embarrass the writer.[ D] He must have noticed the writer's tiredness.28. What did the writer think of the watch he bought in the market?[ A] He was fond of the watch because it was a Rolex.[ B ] He found the watch useful though it was very cheap.[ C ] He didn't like the watch at all.[D] He was indifferent to the watch.29. What must have happened to the writer in the end?[ A] He must have spent a long time at the customs and must have been let go without any punishment.[ B ] He must have been given a fine as a punishment.[ C] His Rolex must have been confiscated.[ D ]His cheap watch must have been confiscated.30. What do you think is the tone of the story?[ A] Humorous. [ B] Sarcastic.[ C 1 Solemn. [ D ] Matter-of-fact.Text 2You must have been troubled by when to say "I love you" because it is one of the greatest puzzles in our life.What if you say it first and your partner doesn' t love you back? Or if they do say it but you don't feel they mean it? Being the first to declare your love can be nerve-racking(——) and risky and can leave you feeling as vulnerable as a turtle with no shell. But is the person who says it first really in a position of weakness? Doesn' t it pay to hold back, play it cool and wait until the other half has shown their hand first?"A really good relationship should be about being fair and being equal," says psychologist Sidney Crown. "But love is seldom equal. " All relationships go through power struggles but, he says,if a love imbalance continues for years, the rot will set in. "That feeling of ' I' ve always loved you more' may be subverted(颠覆,破坏) for a time, but it never goes awaycompletely and it oftenemerges in squabbling(大声争吵). " In love, at least, the silent, withholding type is not always the most powerful. "The strongest one in a relationship is often the person who feels confident enough to talk about their feelings," says educational psychologist Ingrid Collins. Psychosexual therapist Paula Hall agrees. "The one with the upper hand is often the person who takes the initiative. In fact, the person who says ' I love you' first may also be the one who says ' I' m bored with you' first. " Hall believes that much depends on how "I love you" is said and the motivation of the person saying it. "Is it said when they' re drunk? Is it said before their partner flies off on holiday, and what it really means is ' Please don' t be unfaithful to me' ? By saying ' I love you', they really saying' Do you love me?' If so, wouldn't it just be more honest to say that?" Collins agrees that intention is everything. "It' s not what is said, but how it' s said. What it comes down to is the sincerity of the speaker. "31. What is the main idea of this passage?[ A ] The importance of "I love you".[ B ] The meaning of "I love you".[ C ] The time of saying "I love you".[ D ] The place of saying "I love you".32. In the first sentence the author means that[ A ] it is easy to say "I love you"[ B ] it is hard to say "I love you"[ C ] we have many troubles in our life[ D ] people usually do not know when to say "I love you"33. According to the expert, a good relationship should be[ A ] fair and equal [ B ] fair and kind[ C ] powerful and equal [ D 1 confident and fair34. In the third paragraph, the phrase "with the upper hand" means[ A ] being low in spirit [ B ] having only one hand[ C ] being active [ D ] being passive35. What is the most important for you to consider when somebody say "I love you" to you?[ A ] The intention. [ B ] The place.[ C ] The time. [ D ] The determination.参考译文Text l一次尴尬的经历当我们到达伦敦机场的时候还是凌晨,我已经从阿姆斯特丹往伦敦过电报了,预租了一辆车等我们,但是在我到达公寓之前又发生了一倒霉的事。

Some even think they should be taken good care of by their parents all the time. However, such life skills are really necessary. On June 3,2020,the Ministry of Education (MOE)produced a document(文件)for high schools. According to the document, labor education is listed as a compulsory(必修的)course for high school students. It would be as important as the foreign language or physics. And each of them takes six credits(学分). Voluntary service, as part of labor education, would take two credits. The MOE also asks schools to make sure students do 40 hours of voluntary service during the full three school years.A recent study shows that teenagers in China are doing very little housework. Primary and middle school students spend only 12 minutes a day on chores, compared to 72 minutes in the US,42 minutes in South Korea and 30 minutes in France.Parents think doing household chores would make students pay less attention to their school work. In fact, it is very helpful for teenagers. According to Northwest Educational Service, chores can not only teach teamwork and problem-solving skills but also give people a sense of pride."Through such education, students are expected to develop working abilities as well as a better understanding of the world, "said Zheng Fuzhi, vice-minister of the MOE.27.. How do most teenagers feel about doing chores?______A. It is meaningless workB. It can help them kill timeC. It is necessary to do choresD. It can help them deal with stress28.. How many credits does the labor course take in high school?______A. twoB. FourC. SixD. Eight29.. Middle school students in ______ spend the longest time on chores.A. ChinaB. AmericaC. South KoreaD. France30.. The last paragraph mainly tells us ______ .A. how to encourage teenagers to do choresB. why it's good for teenagers to do choresC. why teenagers should develop different skillsD. how long teenagers should do chores every day31.. What can we infer(推断)from the passage?______A. Most teenagers depend a lot on their parents.B. Labor education is more popular with parents.C. Doing chores can get in the way of students' studies.D. More attention is paid to developing students' life skills.OMany of you have probably had this experience:You get ona train and are ready to take a nap(打盹)or read a book, onlyto find that the passenger in front of you is watching a TVshow on his tablet(平板电脑)without headphones(耳机).The child next to you won't stop crying.

Some people have pointed out that this kind of quiet environment should be offered in all carriages. They say that having quiet carriages might give people the impression that they don't need to be quiet in non-quiet carriages.While some internet users are in favor of the new service, it has also sparked (引发)discussionabout just how quiet travelers should be in quiet carriages.
