高中英語作文：Work and Play

    Work and play do not contradict each other; in fact, they complement each other. As the saying goes, "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." A life burdened with work leads you nowhere, for you would get tired and bored with your daily routine work. On the other hand, proper recreation will relieve the tension and discomfort of our monotonous life because it offers you various ways to let out your pent-up emotions. 

    What I usually do to relax after school is jogging and seeing movies. Usually I don’t spare time for exercise, but I value the physical education class at school. Jogging several rounds in the field certainly relieves the day’s pressure. On weekends, I’ll catch the morning movie for my visual enjoyment. I feel revived and energetic for another week’s work-load. 

    工作與娛樂并不互相沖突，事實上，它們之間的關系還相輔相成。有句格言說：「整日工作而沒有休閑娛樂，會令人變得沉悶乏味。」被工作重擔壓得喘不過氣來的生活，將使你一事無成，因為你將對一成不變的例行公事感到厭煩。由另一方面來說，適度的娛樂活動能提供各種管道，來渲泄你被壓抑的情緒，減輕單調(diào)生活中的緊張與不悅。 放學之后，我最常做的休閑活動，便是慢跑與看電影。通常我并不特地撥出時間來做運動，但是我很重視學校的體育課。在操場上慢跑幾圈，無疑地可以減輕一天的壓力。在周末時，我都去看早場電影，享受視覺饗宴。如此一來，我將有如再生般的充沛活力，去面對下一星期的工作量。
