作文范文
The two-day weekend has brought a lot of benefits to college students. It not only offers us more time to get rid of tiredness and have a good rest, but also gives us more chances to take up some hobbies, such as fishing, reading, or gardening. From these activities we can learn many things outside the classroom, which will add to our knowledge.
Despite the convenience it brings us, the two-day weekend has also given rise to quite a few problems. The most serious one is that the weekdays are filled with more lesson, sometimes too many. Because our classes are limited to Monday through Friday, we have to take more lessons each day than in the past. This leaves us little time to catch our breath during the weekdays.
In order to benefit most from the two-day weekend, I have decided to make a good plan for the two-day weekend. Of course I should take this chance to relax. But during the weekend, I will still set aside enough time to study. By doing so ii can have a good time as well as make progress in my studies.
参考译文
双休日给我们带来了许多好处，大学生。它不仅为我们提供了更多的时间来摆脱疲劳，并有很好的休息，也给我们更多的机会参加一些业余爱好，如钓鱼，阅读，或园艺。从这些活动中我们可以学到许多课堂以外的东西，这将增加我们的知识。
尽管它给我们带来方便，双休日也引起不少问题。最严重的是，平日都是满满的课程，有时太多。因为我们的课程仅限于星期一至星期五，我们不得不每天花更多的经验比过去。这使我们没有时间去追赶平日里的气息。
为了从两天周末，受益，我决定为为期两天的周末计划好了。当然，我要借此机会放松一下。但在周末，我仍然会留出足够的时间来研究。这样II可以有一个很好的时间以及使我的研究进展。
