Providing Physical Exercises Should Not Be The Schools Responsibility?

While physical exercise is important, I do not believe that it is the school’s

responsibility to provide physical training for its students.

That is something that everyone can take care of on his or her own.

Many students get plenty of physical exercise as part of their daily life or recreation. A

student who bicycles ten miles to and from school does not need more exercise. A good

physical education program must take a student’s outside activity into consideration.

Otherwise, some students will spend valuable class hours repeating physical exercise.

If a school offers such activities, it also suggests that students will be graded on them.

The range of possible physical activities is great: football, swimming, weight lifting, ballet,

ballroom dance, yoga, skiing, horseback riding, and golf are just a few. However, the

number of activities that a school could offer is small. Some students could get bad grades

in physical education simply because the school could not provide an activity they enjoy or

do well. This seems unfair. Research suggests that participation, not excellence, in these

activities determines the physical benefits the body will get.

Another issue is economic. Many schools do not have the money to provide gry

facilities, playing fields, and athletic equipment for their student. Other schools are located

in cities where the kind of space just is not available. A few schools would rather keep

money for academic purposes.

3

Schools can certainly encourage physical activity. They can provide space for activities,

events, and classes for physical activities. They can encourage students to plan time away

from academic studies to get some exercise. However, I think that providing exercise should

not be the schools responsibility.

Living In University Dormitories or Apartments in the Community?

I think it is better for college students to live on campus during their first two years, and

then move into an apartment for off-campus life, while juniors and seniors need the

independence of off-campus life. Student’s needs change over four years, so their housing

should too.

Living on-campus makes it easier to get oriented to the way things are done. You get

the whole university experience. Plus, you interact more with other students. This includes

not only your roommates, but everyone in your dormitory. The older students in the

dormitory can be a big help for the new students. Keeping up with studies in your first year

is hard enough. You should not have to worry about finding your way around and figuring

out the university bureaucracy.

Living in the dormitory also makes a student feel more a part of the university

community. There are more opportunities for becoming involved in university activities and

networking with students and university administration.

Living off-campus, however, is a definite advantage for older students.

Finding an

apartment, dealing with leases and the landlord’s regulations, cooking meals, and figuring

out budgets are all good practice for life after graduation. This kind of independence helps

4

older students grow in adulthood.

Off-campus housing also gives students a better perspective on what is going on

around them. Campus can be like little worlds of their own. There are few children or older

people and everyone is focused on education. Getting to know neighbors who are not

students is good for students coming from difference places. It is a chance to find out what

other people think and feel.

I think a combination of two years on-campus and two years off-campus is a winning

combination for most students. Children should begin their formal schooling at an early

age

5

Children Should Begin Their Formal Schooling at an Early Age

People have different views on what children should do at a very early age. Some think

that children should begin their formal education and start to spend most of their time on

studies. Others believe that it is still time for young children to play. Both views are based

on respective ground.

Those who argue for the playing time for children suggest that children at a very early

age are still too young to focus their attention on learning. Their brain may not be ready for

serious studies such as comprehension and memorizing learning materials. These people

are partially right, for it is true that young children can hardly concentrate. Their attention

on one thing lasts for no longer than 15 minutes or so. But we can arrange classes for

shorter periods, can’t we? And we can shift teaching subjects. Through putting them to

study, young children are occupied with learning but not with playing.

Those who argue for children’s early commencement for formal education believe

that being put to studies, children can develop good habit of studying, for the process of

learning helps develop children’s mental abilities like the ability to memorize, the ability to

understand and the ability to do simple calculation. Children’s habit of studying and love

for learning are of great importance to youngsters because these two things set up the

sound foundation for their future studies.

Having children start formal education at a very early age benefits young children

much more than simply letting them play most of their time. A good habits needs a long

6

time to develop to become a second nature. More importantly, it is better to develop a

good habit before a bad one may grow. Similarly, the love for learning should take toots for

before the love for playing is established.

7

Should A Person Make An Important Decision Alone?

A person should never make an important decision alone, important decisions should

be well thought out. People who know you well, know what is best for you, and close to you

can give you good advice, give you a different perspective, or share their own experience.

When I had difficulty deciding which classes to take in collage, I talked to my teachers

and advisors, they had the knowledge and expertise to help me determine which classes

were the best ones to take for my future career. Without their advice, I might have chosen

unsuitable courses.

In collage, I had convinced myself that I was not good enough to act in the school play.

Therefore, I decided not to audition even though drama had always been my passion. The

day of the audition, a friend of mine asked me why I was not auditioning. When I told her I

did not feel I was good enough, she was shocked, she was able to provide me with another

perspective on myself and my talents. I rethought my decision and tried out….and got a

lead in the play.

Last year when I was trying to decide whether or not I should study overseas, I talked to

my friend. This was the best thing I could have done. This was a big decision for me because

I had never been overseas on my own and I was not sure if I could do it. She had studied

overseas the precious year. She told me about the challenges and opportunities I might

encounter and helped me make the right decision. I went and it was amazing.

8

Whenever I am faced with an important decision, I seek advice from others so that I am

well-informed and have the benefit of their perspective and experience

My Opinion on Advertisement

Advertisements appear everywhere in modern society. There are many way to

advertise and ads come in different forms. Newspapers and billboards carry

advertisements; some products are announced on TV and radio which have a

wide audience. Advertising is a big industry and many agencies are set up for

furnish a variety of services for it.

However, advertising is not welcome sometimes. A most irritating thing is to

watch advertisements before and during films on TV. There are so many of

them that they make you forget what you are sitting there for. The ironical

thing is that advertisements of one type of things are often shown one after

another so that you are confused as to which product you should choose.

What’s more, advertising is not always truthful. The advertisers exaggerate

the benefits of the merchandise they want to sell in order to gain more profits.

Thus the consumer falls victim to such advertising.

Although there are disadvantages of ads, we can not forget the advantages

and the conveniences they bring to us. First, by telling us where something is

available, they may save us money and time. They guide us in finding suitable

jobs and other information as well. Secondly, a wide range of activities and

9

institutions receive financial support through advertising. Without this

support we would have to pay much more for newspapers and sports games.

Thirdly, perfect advertisements even provide entertainment. A considerable

amount of effort goes into their production. So in most cases the

photography is truly artistic, the slogans are genuinely witty, and the

situations are decidedly funny.

Generally speaking, advertisements have become one of the most

authoritative voices speaking to us today. Let us make our life easier by

learning to choose proper ads, and be the master of advertisements, not their

salve.：At the beginning of the new millennium, there are wider social concerns

about increasingly conspicuous splits in society between those who are

computer literate, employable and well paid, and those who are not, -----Such

split is termed "Digital Divide". What do you think is ONE of the major

problems that may result from this trend? Write an essay of about 400 words

on the topic given below:

A Major Problem Resulted From Digital Divide(数字鸿沟，数码鸿沟)

In recent years, although the majority of all countries especially the post-industrial

societies, have achieved preeminent(卓越的) progress thanks to the widespread of personal

computer and Internet, this trend also resulted in large groups of poor, underprivileged(被

剥夺基本权力的,穷困的,下层社会的) and disadvantaged(贫穷的,处于不利地位的) people who

lack in computer skills. Such groups have limited access to the information age and are

10

identified below the Digital Divide. These people find it difficult to find a decent job, and

many of them are likely to turn to drugs and crimes. In a word, this tendency has created

many social problems, namely unemployment, cime, drug abuse, disparity(不一致, 不同, 不

等) between the rich and the poor, and so on. I think the most important element among

them is crime.

The Digital Divide functions on two levels, namely the domestic level and the

international level. On the domestic level, when it comes to other negative effects

accompanied by the emergence of Digital Divide such as unemployment and drug abuse,

some people may adopt an inappropriate perspective that they are not affected by these

problems and show no interest in solving them. Regardless of the political correctness of

such opinions, the devastating effects of crimes closely associate with all those in the

society and allow of no neglect. If we don't put this issue under scrutiny, our lives and

properties will naturally suffer great loss as a result and this issue virtually serves the

function of a trigger of dissatisfaction among the people. Furthermore, since the computer

skills are necessary in our routine jobs, those computer illiterate will be disappointed to find

they are not qualified to have an upper hand in the job market. They have no choice but to

commit crimes as a means of earning their bread as well as revenging(报仇, 复仇,替...报仇,

复仇)on the society.

On the international level, people in underdeveloped countries will lament that their

situation is worse than before since the advent of the personal computer and Internet,

whose original purpose is , ironically, to provide convenience as well as efficiency to all

human beings instead of causing social and economical gaps between rich and poor

countries. To make it worse, radicals from some underdeveloped countries will attribute

their plight to the exploitation and oppression inflicted by developed countries aided by

11

advanced technology. Consequently, they are entitled to take an extreme form of crime,

namely terrorist attacks launched against Western contries, as they deserve the

punishment.

If the digital technology continues to develop at the expense of those beneath the

Digital Divide and the underdeveloped countries do not take an active approach to the

problems, even well educated computer literates in developed countries will not enjoy their

lives devoid of a sense of security. To eliminate all crimes caused by the Digital Divide, all

governments should provide the underclass with educational and financial provision, which

in turn generates possible job opportunities. Meanwhile, developed countries should

provide unconditional economic, financial, technological aids for poor countries to help

them build infrastructure and purchase equipment so that they can take advantage of

current technology.

Should Household Chores Be Required as Part of the Daily Routine of School

Children?

Some people think that household chores家务杂事 should be required part of the daily

routine of school children. Other people believe that young children should spend more

time on their academic studies. Which viewpoint do you agree to? Write a composition of

about 400 words on the following topic:

Should Household Chores Be Required as part of the Daily Routine of School Children?

Some parents prefer to do all the household chores by themselves for fear that the

daily job will infringe on their children's valuable time on learning. In fact, it is advisable to

12

provide household chores as a daily responsibility to young children.

Since great progress has been made recently in terms of(根据, 按照, 用...的话, 在...方面)

living conditions thanks to the material prosperity in our country, school children generally

enjoy a more comfortable life under cozy(舒适的, 安逸的, 惬意的) circumstances and have

greater chance to receive first-rate education. On the other hand, however, some of them

are spoiled and unwilling to take on their own responsibility. With the introduction of home

economics(家政学), young students will respect physical labor and develop their work ethic,

which may contribute tremendously to the development of their characters. With numerous

shackles(桎梏) and obstacles waiting for them in the long journey of life, the students

should become aware of the urgent need to practice chores as an essential form of

tempering(回火) their willpower. When they take up the chores industriously(勤勉的, 刻苦的)

on the own with parents' guidance instead of interference, they will gradually acquire such

qualities as diligence, perseverance, and patience.

Another reason why I preach the importance of household economics for children lies

in the fact that it is a convenient method to learn useful skills after class. During the course

of cooking, house cleaning, baby-sitting, fence repairing, car washing, grass mowing, and

wall painting, the young children may obtain certain techniques and then use their

imagination to foster a sense of creativity and achievement, which combine to pave the way

for their future career.

The last but not least factor is economic. If their children dawdle（偷懒，闲逛） over the

work or even refuse to fulfill their obligations, an incentive payment is a good proposal to

encourage them to earn them own pocket money. The truth is that the children will find

themselves overtaken（突然降临，压倒） with joy upon receiving their deserved salary, which

13

in turn helps them realize the virtue of self-reliance(自恃, 倚靠自己) and self-struggle.

Some people may concern that the housework will occupy a large amount of their

children's time, which will bring about terrible school reports, cause physical and mental

fatigue, or even result in unpredictable negative effects. Obviously, appropriate amount of

chores in children's leisure time is the last one to threaten their academic achievements and

health because of advantages such as relaxation, stress relieving, and weight maintenance.

If parent entrust(委托) appropriate housework to their children with necessary guidance,

they will be amazed at these young people's abilities to tackle a good many problems,

which help to cultivate（培养，栽培） a sense of responsibility and pride. As an effective

complementary form of school education in modern society, it should no doubt become a

productive part of school children's life.

University Education is Essential to One's success

It is said that nowadays one cannot acquire the qualifications and qualities essential to

success through university education or study in some institutions of similar nature. You are

going to argue for or against it and support your view with details.

University Education is Essential to One's success

It is not an uncommon phenomenon that many people become successful without a

formal college education, some typical examples of which are Bill Gates, chairman of

Microsoft; Li Jiacheng, a Hong Kong billionaire and Hua Luogeng, a world-class

mathematician. This leads some people to believe that a person can achieve great success

14

without a formal education and that the qualifications a successful person needs cannot be

acquired through the study in university or other institutions of similar nature. It cannot be

denied that there do exist such examples in every country; however, I can hardly share the

above point of view for several reasons

In the first place, a college or university is a specialized institution of higher learning

where people can receive systematic and scientific training in a certain field, which paves

the way for(为...铺平道路) their future career. With the advent of the era of knowledge-based

economy, a man without a sound academic background can hardly accomplish anything.

Only in universities and other institutions of higher learning can he/she master the

professional knowledge and relevant skills essential to his/her career.

Secondly, it is wise to learn at another man's cost. We can benifit much from the

invaluable experience and knowledge handed down from our ancestors and draw a lesson

from the failure of our predecessors so as to avoid detour.

Thirdly, when in university, one also has to learn to communicate and cooperate with

teachers and fellow students, during which one cultivates friendship and acquires the

interpersonal skills, both of which are conductive to one's future career and success.

University is said to be a miniature society.

Last of all, there are innumerable successful people who attribute their achievements to

a formal university education. It is no wonder that so many parents spare no efforts to send

their children to colleges and universities.

From what I have mentioned above, it is obvious that we can acquire the qualifications

15

and qualities essential to our future career and success through university education. The

systematic knowledge and solid academic foundation will make it easy for us to understand

and absorb new-developed theories based on previous research efforts; with the social

skills we acquire in such a miniature society as university, we will not have to waste much

time learning how to handle human relationship. Compared with those without formal

university education, university graduates have already gained an upper hand(优势,上风,有

利地位) at the very beginning of building their own career.

16

Travel Helps Promote Communication Between Countries

Tourism has already become a multibillion-dollar industry that supports economic

development. You are going to write an article entitled: Travel Helps Promote

Communication Between Countries

Travel Helps Promote Communication between Countries

With the steady growth in the world's economy as well as the people's living standard,

nowadays more and more people are able to afford to go to travel abroad. Thus people of

different races and colors have more chances to meet each other and understand each

other. Such activities among people help promote the understanding and communication

between countries, which helps to make this world a better and more harmonious place.

Different countries are striving to develop their national tourism because tourism really

has a lot of advantages. Firstly, beautiful scenery, attractive tourist spots and splendid

culture allure tourists with different parts of the world, which provides many opportunities

to promote exchanges among people from different backgrounds. For example, since the

reform and opening-up, China, a country which has rich tourist resources, receives millions

of foreign tourists every year. The frequent contacts between foreign tourists and Chinese

people promote the exchanges of culture and science, creating international friendship and

promoting deeper understanding and strengthening ties. Meanwhile this has accelerated

the development of these countries. Secondly, travel enriches one's knowledge, widens

one's vision and enhances mutual understanding. In the past, Chinese people knew little of

17

the outside world. Since the reform and opening-up, with people's living standard greatly

improved, more and more people have the chances to go abroad for sightseeing. Through

traveling, we Chinese have expanded our scope of knowledge, and we have come to know

the world better and have been learning how to develop our own country better. Thirdly,

tourism boosts推进 local economy and promotes commercial exchanges. Singapore is

such a good example. It is a small country with scarce natural resources. But owing to the

prosperous tourism, the country's economy develops very well and it is named one of the

four economic "tigers" in northeastern Asia.

But some people say that tourism cannot work so well as people expect. They argue

that the purpose of the tourists is just to enjoy sightseeing and in fact tourism has its

disadventages. Firstly, tourism does great harm to the tranquility宁静 and sanitation卫生,

卫生设施 of the local place, and sometimes it even causes pollution to the naturel

environment. Secondly, many tourists cannot even speak a word of the language of the

country they are visiting. There is little possibility that they will have a deep understanding

of the country in such a short period of time. Thirdly, during the trip, poor service and

language barrier语言障碍 may even give rise to unwanted不必要的 misunderstanding. Also

the tourists' wealth may make the local people more aware of their own poverty and lead to

jealousy and psychological imbalance.

As the proverb goes, " No garden is without weeds." In my opinion, compared with the

advantages, disadvantages of tourism have become trivial things. It is important for a

country to develop its tourism to upgrade its international position and at the same time

promote global understanding to remove prejudice and bias. We should make good use of

our rich tourist resources to make our motherland more beautiful and attract more foreign

friends.

18

In recent years, some people raise doubts about the practice of co-education. They

think it is not a good idea for the overall development of our younger generation. They

think all-boy or all-girl schools may be a better choice. You are going to write a composition

on the following topic :Co-education or Single-sex Schools

Co-education or Single-sex Schools

Nowadays, we can often hear people complain that it is much more difficult to teach

students of today. They create a lot of problems, which make adults very worried. Some

people even raise doubts about the practice of co-education男女同校. They think that the

problem may lie in our educational system. A girl school or a boy school may be a better

choice. There are also people who firmly advocate提倡, 鼓吹 the practice of co-education.

As far as I am concerned, I am in favor of赞同, 有利于 the latter opinion.

Co-education has a number of advantages. Above everything else, as we all know, the

adult world is made up of male and female, so should the school be. Co-education helps

one better know his/her social role so that one can easily adapt himself/herselp to the

outside world. Secondly, co-education offers a good chance for male and female students

to better understand one another, thus removing illusions and wrong impression of the

opposite sex. The fact is that the more they are segregated from the opposite sex异性, the

more curious they become about the opposite sex. Thirdly, co-education helps refrain

students from忍住, 制止 indecent下流的, 猥亵的, <口>不象样的, 不妥当的 behaviors

because of the presence of the opposite sex. According to an investigation conducted by

some psychologists, students, both male and female, will pay more attention to their own

speech and action with the opposite sex. They will be well-behaved行为端正的, 彬彬有礼的

and well-adjusted.

19

On the other hand, those who are against co-education have their own reasons. First of

all, they maintain that there is a possibility of puppy love 早年初恋. Some teenagers are

precocious早熟的 and they easily fall in love. Second, female students may suffer from

discrimination and inequality. Thirdly, the co-education system cannot cater to the

individual needs of students of both sexes. While in segregated schools, boys and girls can

fully develop themselves to their own interest and abilities. In boy schools, boys can enjoy

many courses specially designed for them while it is the same with girls in girl schools.

When advantages and disadvantages are put together, we can see that the advantages

of co-education far outweigh its disadvantages. What we should do is to change our

methods of teaching children when time changes so that we can keep up with the trend

and let our children develop in a healthy way.

20

Social Activities----a Necessary Complement to College Life

Many university students are taking an active part in all kinds of club activities or sports

on the campus, but quite a few other students dismiss拒绝接受 these activities as

time-consuming耗时的 and useless. This phenomenon results from their different

understanding of college life.

The 'pro-club' students regard participation of some social activities such as activities in

clubs or societies as an important part of their college life while the 'anti-club' students

focus their attention on studies rather than, as they put it, on recreation消遣, 娱乐 or

entertainment.

In fact, clubs or sports mean much more than recreations or entertainment. They are a

necessary complement补足 to college life, enriching the students life by engaging them in

certain interesting activities. Furthemore, to take part in an art club, or say, a Project Hope

Association will prevent the students from becoming book worms极爱读书的人,书呆子 and

help them improve their skills in communicating with people, planning an activity or

leading an organization.

It is reported that students who have engaged themselves in certain club activities or

sports can easily adapt themselves to a new environment after they graduate from their

universities. But it is a hard nut to crack棘手的问题 for those who have all the time been

burying themselves in books.

21

Someone may argue by raising a problem of time. As a matter of fact事实上, time is not

a problem so long as只要 we arrange it in a proper way .The key is how to improve the

efficiency of study so as to使得, 以致 spare aome time for appropriate social activities.

However, it is safer to say that priority should be given to academic courses普通课程；

学术课程. Only on the premise that both energy and time are available, can we engage

ourselves in certain club activities or sports.

22

What Do We Need: Physical Recreation or Intellectual Activities

Many people enjoy very active physical recreation like sports, camping and fishing.

Other people prefer to spend their leisure time participating in more intellectual activities

like reading, listening to music, collecting stamps or watching films. Write an essay,

comparing physical pastimes with intellectual ones and explain why you think physical or

intellectual activities are better to a person of your age.

What Do We Need: Physical Recreation or Intellectual Activities

Many people are inclined to倾向于 take active physical recreation, like sports, camping

and fishing in their leisure time, while others would rather participate in more intellectual

activities, like reading, listening to music, watching films and so on. Although it is

unreasonable and impossible to tell which one is absolutely better than the other, in my

opinion, it seems more advisable for the young people about 20~25 years old to take the

latter which is in accordance with与...一致 their unique characteristics.

First, compared with physical activities, intellectual ones become more urgent and

important. Since the young generation full of energy are at their highest points to learn and

explore, there is no doubt that they should make full use of their golden age to enrich

knowledge, cultivate their mind, broaden their vision, and develop their tastes. Thus, they

will be more creative and contributive to the society as they set out to开始 their own

careers.

23

Second, intellectual activities are more helpful for the young people to contact with

their surroundings, of both the past and the present. For example, through reading one can

learn about the wisdom and philosophy held by great figures in history, which may guide

him to lead a more intelligent way of life. Watching films or listeniing to music can help a

person grasp the contemporary当代的 cultural tendency and accordingly因此, 从而 keep

pace with the fast-developing world. It is obvious that simple physical exercises cannot

achieve all of these.

Of course, I want to make it clear that I don't mean physical activities are less helpful to

life than intellectual ones. People should have their own choices on the basis of their

different life styles, characters, hobbies and health. Yet, for the young people of my age, I

suppose the latter will be more practical and meaningful.

Take more intellectual activities when you are young, which will benefit you for your

In my opinion, originality创意, 新奇is not important in language learning. The reason

why I think so is that language learning does not need originality as a vital condition条件.

Originality is less important to an English learner. A case in point恰当的例子 is in

pronunciation. Every English learner has to spend a long and boring period of time on a

large amount of大量 training of pronunciation. During those days, what students do is to

24

try their best to imitate teacher's pronunciations about English words and make the sound

of them, and then repeat them time by time. To an English learner, the experience is of great

use很有用 to improve his pronunciation. From this case we can see clearly the great

importance of imitation or repetition rather than originality or creativity in the beginning of

language learning.

Originality refers to creativity which amounts to changes, but there are many formed

rules which cannot be changed in language, such as grammatical rules. We cannot create a

new grammatical rule. It is the same that we cannot speak or write a language at will随意,

任意. If one who speaks English wants to make the other peopler understand him, he must

speak it according to English grammar; otherwise nobody would understand him.

Therefore, there is no originality in grammar learning of language.

I do not think originality is important in language learning. It does not follow that

originality is useless. It is when one masters a language and learns to use it that originality

could give him a great beneficial help.

Universality or Diversity

. At present many people think that one language should be used as the universal

language世界语, but others think that by doing so the cultures of different nations will be

lost.

Universality or Diversity

With the development of globalization, there are an increasing number of scholars

these days who hold the opinion that we need a common language共同语 to be spoken by

all the people in the world. However, other scholars are afraid that this will weaken other

languages and cultures at the same time. As for me, I am not in favor of the viewpoint that

one language should replace others as the universal one.

Nowadays it is universally acknowledged公认的 that language is not only a tool of

communication but also a kind of art. Each language, no matter what kind of language it is,

has its unique pronunciation, grammar and expressions, which contribute to the diversity

多样性 of the world. Therefore, if the diverse languages are diminished, our world will

become less colorful.

We can say that language is part of culture, and plays a considerably相当地 important

role in culture. Indeed, some social scientists consider it the keystone重点, 要旨 of culture.

Without language, so the argument goes, culture would not be possible. On the other hand,

language is influenced and shaped by culture; it reflects culture. In the broadest sense,

26

language is the symbolic representation of a people, and it comprises包含, 由...组成 their

historical and cultural backgrounds as well as their approach to life and their ways of living

and thinking. Cultures differ from one another, and each culture is unique. There is no

denying that it will be a disaster for us to see the world's diverse cultures disappear one by

one.

When all the factors are examined, we may safely确实地 come to the conclusion that

although we are convinced that确信,承认, no matter what our career choice职业选择 is, a

command of foreign languages is an important skill to acquire, yet we should protect our

own language, the carrier of our culture.

Old People Should Not be Forced by Law to Retire

There has long been a debate about whether old people should be forced to retire from

work at the age of 55 or 60, regardless of不管, 不顾 their own wishes. People in favor of this

say that old people, having worked for over thirty years, should not go on working, because

physically they are not as strong, healthy and energetic as they used to be, and mentally

they are not able to endure the same pressure of having to work to earn a living as young

people are. Personally, I do not agree with this point of view for the following reasons:

First, it seems to me that no one should be forced to change his/her lifestyle unless

he/she has committed a crime犯罪. People, whether they are old or young, should have the

right to decide their own way of life. Just as young people can choose to stop working and

enjoy their leisure time as long as they can make ends meet, old people should also be

allowed to continue working, provided that they are still qualified for their jobs.

27

Second, there are many jobs that are especially suitable for old people, such as jobs

that call for more experience and wisdom than physical power. With their rich experience in

both work and life, many old people would make good consultants, instructors, coaches,

doctors and psychologists, to mention only a few.

Last but not least, some old people do not go on working simply for economic reasons.

It seems to them that there is more to work than just making money. They simply enjoy

working as an indispensable不可缺少的 part of their lives. Some of them even develop

various mental and physical problems after retiring from work, and it seems that the best

way to keep them in good health and high spirits is to allow them to keep working.

All in all总而言之, I believe that not only should old people's physical conditions be

taken into consideration but also their psychological needs should be respected. Therefore,

letting them do whatever they are fond and capable of doing will make them much happier

than forcing them to stay isolated from society and endure loneliness in their twilight 黄昏

的 years.

What Is the Most Appealing Feature of a Job?2008年06月25日 星期三 02:24

people believe that a high salary is the most important feature of a job while others think

that job satisfaction is more important.……

28

What Is the Most Appealing Feature of a Job?

What is the most appealing吸引人的 feature of a job? Some people claim that it is a

high salary that makes a job appealing. Others believe that job satisfaction or being useful

to society is more important. In my opinion, although a high wage is by no means决不

unimportant, job satisfaction has priority.

For a start, compared with sheer money, the satisfaction and pleasure one derives from

得自, 由来 his or her work are much more fulfilling and long lasting. Almost every kind of

job can provide people with money to sustain维持 their daily lives, that is, to meet their

physical needs. However, only a few careers can supply people with a sense of satisfaction

and satiate their psychological demands. It is this very sense of gratification满意, not the

money, that makes people feel confident, happy and optimistic. To lead a quality life, a

person should attach more emphasis to job satisfaction than the salary of the job brings.

At the same time, focusing too much on the salary will jeopardize危害 a person's career

prospects. Taking a high salary as a career goal can restrain抑制 one's initiative主动,

suffocate使窒息 one's creativity and hamper妨碍 one's future development, because all

that is involved is earning a living. However, a person who resolves决心 to seek pleasure

and satisfaction in his or her work will go all out全力以赴 to tap his or her potential for

career advancement with the utmost enthusiasm. In this sense, job satisfaction is a more

powerful driving force驱动力 for a person than money.

Lastly, a high salary leads only to the gratification of one's personal needs, while being

29

useful to society coincides with与...相符 the public interests. If a person regards

contributing to the common good as the most important feature of a job, that person will

make the utmost efforts to provide the best service for society, benefiting both the public

and the individual.

Therefore, from the above analysis we can conclude that although a high salary is a

very important feature of an appealing job, job satisfaction is of far more significance for an

employee.

Personal Appearance: Looks Really Count

There is a heated discussion on whether or not one's personal appearance should

count in our daily life. Some will say looks are not everything, and beauty is but skin deep;

others will not agree. They hold the opinion that good personal appearance will leave good

impression on people, and beauty will make people pleasant. On this issue, my opinion is

that personal appearance should count in our daily life.

In job-hunting求职 personal appearance is especially important. A good personal

appearance will make the interviewer feel pleasant and have a good impression of the

interviewee. To some jobs such as public relation associator, model, movie star, a beaufiful

face is essential. In those jobs, homely faces不好看的：缺乏吸引力的 will make people sick.

Personal appearance is also important in looking for a partner in marriage. When a girl

in introduced to a boy by a go-between, the girl's beautiful face will to a great extent make

the boy a prospective seeker; on the other hand, the boy will leave the girl alone after the

meeting if the girl is ugly. Perhaps, this is the reason why boys and girls will try their best to

make themselves have a good appearance before this kind of meeting.

Personal appearance also plays an active role in many other aspects. From these we can

conclude that in our daily life, personal appearance really counts.

Sending Teenagers to Study Abroad: Good or Bad?

Nowadays more and more parents send their teenage children to study abroad. This

has drawn public attention. Some people believe it is good for the children while others are

worried about the development of these teenagers.

Sending Teenagers to Study Abroad: Good Or Bad?

Over the past few years, more and more Chinese parents have been sending their

children abroad, believing the experience of studying abroad will pave the way for their

children's future success. Even now, this rush continues and has become very widespread.

This phenomenon has drawn public attention, with people standing on both sides. It is my

contention论点 that sending teenagers abroad without proper preparation may do more

harm than good to their development.

First of all, these teenagers may have difficulty adapting to the new environment which

might be totally different from the homeland they are used to living in. Therefore, they will

probably experience the so-called "culture shock". They may dislike the food, be unable to

follow the teachers’ teaching method, or have problems dealing with people around them.

As a result, they may find nothing goes well at the beginning and feel lonely and frustrated.

If these teenagers are not well prepared psychologically, their character will probably be

severely affected.

Moreover, for these youngsters'年青人, 少年 language can be a great barrier, which

32

may cause difficulty in both their daily life and their studies. As most of them have just

graduated from middle schools when going abroad, their command of the foreign

language is usually inadequate for living and studying in a foreign country. Consequently,

they may find it hard to follow the teacher's instructions and feel at a loss困惑 as to how to

use the library and how to rent an apartment. The pressure of study and stress of life may

make them feel anxious and upset, which may in turn affect their academic development(学

生)知识的发展, 学术水准的提高.

In conclusion, teenagers studying abroad will probably have an extremely difficult time

and their perspective of academic success will be far from their parents’ expectation.

Sending teenagers abroad may be an unwise decision. Parents should be careful when

making such a choice.

Many parents believe that early childhood education is extremely important for

children's development. How far do you agree or disagree with them?

Early Childhood Education

It is a tradition in China that parents have a high expectation of their children. As

education is considered the most important way to success, young couples today are

paying more and more attention to their children's early education. Many parents send their

children to classes of English, drawing, music, dancing and so on. On the other hand, many

people are strongly against this phenomenon. In my opinion, early childhood education

can be benificial to children's future when it is conducted properly.

33

First of all, good early education can be a lifetime benefit to children. As we know,

cildren are generally quick to grasp new knowledge and master a new skill. So childhood is

usually believed to be the golden time to learn. Many people share the experience that

what they have learnt in their childhood helps lay a solid foundation for their future success.

Many well-known musicians, sports stars, and scientists owe their success to early

childhood learning experiences.

However, early childhood education should not be conducted by force. Many young

couples, with high expection of their children, often force their children to learn when the

children are reluctant不情愿的 to or fail to meet their requirement. This often results in

children's loss of interest in learning and confidence in themselves. Therefore, if parents

really believe it is important or necessary for their children to learn some knowledge or a

certain skill, they should first try to arouse their children's interest in it. When the cildren do

have the desire and the potential, parents can provide them with good conditions, which

will not be too late.

In conclusion, early childhood education is important for children's development. It,

however, should not be carried out only according to parents’ will. Children's interest

should also be taken into consideration.

In Support Of Disabled Students' Access To Higher Education

Things are getting much better since the introduction of the anti-discrimination law in

1991. According to Beijing Daily, more than 300 high school graduates with physical

disabilities残障 attended universities in Beijing between 1996 and 2001. Suppose you

believe disabled students should have access to higher education……

IN SUPPORT OF DISABLED STUDENTS' ACCESS TO HIGHER EDUCATION

Since the introduction of the anti-discrimination law in 1991, there has been a heated

dispute on disabled students' access to higher education. In my point of view, disabled

students should have access to higher education.

Firstly, it is immoral and cruel to deprive disabled students of the right for higher

education. It is a great misfortune for disabled students to lose certain physical functions.

Deprivation of their right for higher education would undoubtedly无庸置疑地, 的确地

worsen(使)变得更坏, 恶化 their situation and make their future life even harder since

education is one of the most important means to achieve a happy life. Some of them,

having overcome countless great difficulties caused by their physical problems, manage to

achieve good academic results. It is definitely inhuman野蛮的 to neglect the great efforts

they make for success and smash their hope for a good life. Besides, higher education can

help disabled students to obtain greater achievements. Disabled people can be as

intelligent as any other citizens, many of them have made remarkable contribution to the

world. Some of the well-known examples include Franklin Roosevelt, Helen Keller, etc.

35

Going over their life experieces, we can easily draw a conclusion that they owed their great

success to the good education they had received. Therefore, discrimination against

disabled students may lead to a great loss of many talents.

In conclusion, we have the obligation to help these people in misfortune to live a happy

life, instead of pushing them to an even worse situation. As disabled students with good

schooling学校教育 can contribute on a larger scale to the development of our country,

shutting the door of higher education to them is not only unethical but also unwise.

Human Cloning or Not?

With the development of cloning technology, the debate over human cloning has been

intensified加强. Proponents建议者, 支持者 of human cloning believe that this technology

will benefit those couples who cannot have children. However, I insist that human cloning

should be banned for the following reasons.

First of all, biological problems underlying cloning are so complex that human cloning

is unsafe. It is well known that animal cloning has a high rate of failure. Many animals are

born dead or deformed残废的. Even if some survive, they may have defects from which they

will die of later on. It was reported that the cloned mice that appeared normal showed

evidence of证明, 说明, 表明 genetic mutation(生物物种的)突变. This is because the

regulatory mechanisms调节机制, which occur normally during development, are disturbed

during the process of cloning. We simply do not have enough knowledge about cloning

and the technology at this stage. If we clone humans, we may produce many abnormal反常

的, 变态的 kindred, which will be nothing but a disaster to our human kind.

36

Moreover, human cloning will bring some social and moral problems. For example,

those couples who are unable to have children might choose to have a copy of one of

a copy of the husband). However, how should the wife react to a physical copy of

her husband who she is in love with? In addition, when the copy meets friends or relatives

of the original, these people will confuse the original with the copy. How they should treat

the copy would be another problem. Besides identity身份, his social status would be a great

headache to the society.

In conclusion, human cloning should be prohibited in the world because it is

scientifically unsafe and will trigger引发, 引起 social and moral crises. Any attempt to clone

humans is an irresponsible action to human life and should be severely punished.

37

Will Teachers Be Replaced By Computers In The Future?

With the development of society, the computer has pervaded遍及 almost all areas of

life. Some work which used to be done by human beings can be completed by computers.

Therefore, some people assume that teachers will be replaced by computers in the future.

To what extent do you agree of disagree with this opinion?

WILL TEACHERS BE REPLACED BY COMPUTERS IN THE FUTURE?

In education, the computer is playing an increasingly important role, so some people

assume that teachers will be replaced by computers one day. However, I believe that

computers will never be able to replace teachers.

Firstly, the computer can never fulfill teachers’ role in nourishing the human mind and

spirit. Education is more a process of instruction students emotionally and psychologically

than passing on knowledge mechanically. It is widely acknowledged that successful

education is always based on a large amount of investment of love and concern. Students

need teachers' love while in difficulty, for teachers' encouragement can help them gain

confidence. No wonder the famous blind educator and writer Helen Keller once said, "My

teacher's love illuminates my dark life and enables me to find my direction." But how could

students get all of these from an inanimate死气沉沉的, 没生命的 machine even if all the

information of the world could be stored in it?

Another demanding task computers cannot perform is that they cannot teach students

38

according to their individual gifts. A competent有能力的, 胜任的 teacher is always good at

finding out students' shining points. For example, when Gauss高斯 was a child, his teacher

realized he had a special talent in mathematics and helped him exploit his potential and

thus set him to the way of tremendous success in mathematics. This work, of course, is

beyond any computer's ability. Besides, teachers can adjust their teaching to different

students of different characteristic. Students' characteristics are so diversified 形形色色的

that computers can hardly be programmed to meet this requirement.

In conclusion, no matter how advanced computers will be in future, education still has

to be fulfilled by teachers. The teacher is able to be fully aware of students' needs and offer

them what they really want accordingly while the computer is merely a tool manipulated(熟

练地)操作 by human beings to assist the fulfillment of such tasks.

Grandparents Raising Grandchildren

In China, many grandparents undertake担任 the responsibility of raising their

grandchildren when the young parents are too busy with their paid jobs. This phenomenon

has been the subject for dispute for some time. In my opinion, young parents should take

care of their children by themselves because there are many disadvantages in grandparents

taking care of grandchildren.

First, children who are left to grandparents at an early age may be educationally

disadvantaged later in life because they may miss important early learning opportunities

that occur in parent-child interaction. It is widely acknowledged that childhood is the

golden time to learn. As most young parents receive better education than the

grandparents, they can better assist children in their early learning. Scientific investigation

39

has also shown that intimate parent-child contact accelerates children's language

acquisition语言习得[掌握] and intellectual development.

Moreover, children brought up by grandparents can develop emotional defects. All

children are most attached to使依恋 their parents by nature生来. When unwillingly living

apart from their parents and seeing other children enjoying parents' love and attention,

these children may have a feeling of abandonment, which may develop into an incurable

trauma伤口 in their later life.

Last but not least, children's psychological development can be severely affected. These

children, deprived of direct care from their parents, are usually spoiled by their

grandparents. Consequently, these children are more likely to develop such psychological

problems as egoism自我主义, 利己主义 and egotism自我中心, 自尊自大.

In conclusion, grandparents raising grandchildren may cause negative effects on

children's intellectual, emotional and psychological development. Therefore, the best place

for children is always at their own parents's side.

40

Psychological Education in Schools

Some people suggest that schools, including primary schools, middle schools and

colleges, should carry out psychological education. To what extent do you agree or

disagree with this opinion?

PSYCHOLOGICAL EDUCATION IN SCHOOLS

It is reported that nowadays the number of students with psychological problems in

middle schools and universities is growing rapidly. Therefore, many people propose that

schools should carry out psychological education. Personally, I entirely agree with this

proposal.

First of all, students are the social group most likely to incur psychological problems.

Currently, Chinese students are under growing pressure: society puts high demands on

them; parents have great expectations of them; and they also set themselves exacting强求

challenges. But the fierce competition of various exams forces them to spend almost all

their time on study, which deprives them of the chance to know themselves, or to grasp and

apply practical social skills. Moreover, most students are brought up in uneventful

circumstances, so they are psychologically immature and fragile易碎的, and consequently

lack adaptability. When encountered with frustration or adversity不幸, 灾祸, 逆境, they may

retreat or react with excessive过多的, 过分的 "countermeasures对策".

On the other hand, students cannot get the psychological guidance they need.

Currently, few Chinese educational institutions have established a psychological health

system, and psychological education within primary and middle schools remains nil零. In

41

most cases, students are left to kill the time in their psychological class. Besides, there is not

enough communication between parents, teachers and students. As a matter of fact,

parents and teachers attach so much attention to young people's study that they often

neglect their mental health. All these factors contribute to the increasing psychological

problems in students.

In a word, psychological education is imperative 必要的 for Chinese students. All

schools should offer psychological education so as to achieve the ultimate goal of

education----to foster培养 students' capacity for survival, good inter-personal skill, and the

means of advancing human civilization.

Married Women's Choice: Housewives or Career Women

Today, a great deal of people hold that a man should devote himself to building up a

career while a woman's role should be at home. Some even propose that married working

women should quit their jobs to be full-time housewives, bt some strongly oppose it.

MARRIED WOMEN'S CHOICE: HOUSEWIVES OR CAREER WOMEN

As many families become rich enough to spare wives from having to work, the

centuries-old悠久的Chinese value that a woman's position is at home revives复兴. The

question of whether to be a housewife or a career woman puzzles many Chinese married

women. In my opinion, women should never quit their career.

In the first place, when a woman leaves her job and becomes a full-time housewife,

family and husband will be the centre of all her life, and she will gradually lose her

42

self-esteem自尊 and become spiritually dependent on her husband. However, if the

husband is too busy to spare as much time for her as she has expected, she will feel empty

and frustrated.

Moreover, great differences in the living environment between husband and wife may

result in a tremendous gap, which may ruin the harmonious family relationship. When a

woman gives up her paid job, she will be isolated from the society, and thus ignorant of不

知道 the latest happenings in the world while her husband who fully participates in various

social activities will be well-informed消息灵通的, 熟悉的, 博识的, 见闻广博的 and upgraded

concerning taste and knowledge. Consequently, the couple will have difficulties

communicating with each other. Ths may lead to serious family crisis.

Last but not least, a married woman, when quitting from the job, will lose economic

independence, which is most important in case of divorce. As the divorce rate is growing

higher and higher in today's society, women need to have a career so that they will have a

means to support themselves and their children when marriage breaks up分裂.

In conclusion, a career enables women to live a fuller and safer life. They should have

their own career for the well-being康乐, 安宁, 福利 of themselves and their families.

Should College Students be allowed to Change Their Majors Midway?

For a long time, universities in China adopt a rigid policy on students' selected major.

Students can apply for several majors at a number of colleges or universities before they are

enrolled into the university. Once this process has been completed, it is very difficult for

students to alter their choices. Now many universities start to reduce restraint on major

43

shift. ……

Should College Students be Allowed to Change Their Majors Midway?

Most Chinese college students know how difficult it can be to change their majors

midway through their studies. Now, some universities have adopted a more flexible policy

which allows students to change their majors without restraint自由地, 无拘束地, 无节制地,

providing they can meet the entrance requirements入学标准 of the course they wish to

take. This has aroused a heated discussion. In my opinion, this alternation in major policy is

good for students' development and should be practiced in all universities.

Firstly, reducing the limitations previously imposed on changing majors gives students

another chance to select their careers with a mature outlook. It is well known that the

majors many college students take are not what they are really interested in. As a result,

some students have no zest 热情 in their major at all. In the past, students had to either

struggle with their original choices or kill their time in desperation无可奈何地 and wait for

the second choice in their postgraduate 研究生 studies. Therefore, restriction on changing

major is in fact an artificial barrier for students' development and should be lifted.

Moreover, allowing students to shift to the major they are good at means better

exploitation of their potential talent. Every student has his/her own passion and talent.

Universities, as an important education institution, should try their best to help students to

achieve their potential instead of suppressing镇压, 抑制 it. There are numerous

outstanding figures in history that gave up their original major and achieved great success

in the new major. For example, Yang Zhenning would not have won the Nobel Prize if he has

stuck to experimental physics实验物理学.

44

In conclusion, we should provide students an opportunity to take a more decisive role

in choosing their individual destiny. A flexible major policy can produce a win-win situation.

45

Is A College Degree Necessary In Today's World?

With the rapid increase in the cost of college, many people say that the costs of the

4-year college are not worth the return of the investment, and that many jobs do not

require a college degree. Is a college degree necessary in today's world?

IS A COLLEGE DEGREE NECESSARY IN TODAY'S WORLD?

Because a 4-year college education requires a large commitment of time, effort, and

money, many high school graduates decide not to go to college. They enter the work force

immediately, or decide to go to a vocational职业的 or trade school instead of college. Is a

college degree really necessary these days? Despite the expense and delay in entering the

work force, I strongly believe that a 4-year college education is necessary and desirable in

today's world.

One major reason to go to college is that college provides necessary academic

background for a career. Durng four or more years in college, students have time and

resources to explore many different areas in the humanities人文学科, social sciences,

science, and professional fields such as business and engineering, and to take a variety of

academic courses that will provide important background for particular careers.

A second important argument for the value of college is that people with college

degrees have better job opportunities and higher income level than people who have only

a high school or vocational school education, so college means a better quality of life. Job

46

opportunities and starting salaries are generally excellent for people with college degrees

while the employment outlook may not be so cheerful for those with only a high school

diploma.

Also, college tends to provide a labor force with a certain knowledge and skill, which is

beneficial to the advancement of our society. Students who exercise their minds and

develop strategies to deal with hard problems over four years of college are likely to

graduate with many skills and strategies that can be transferred to dealing with tasks later

in life, both on the job and in their personal life. This will surely contribute to the progress of

the world.

In summary, there are many good arguments in support of the value of a 4-year college

education. All in all, the benefits far outweigh the problems and expense. I firmly believe

that everyone who wants to have a bright future should go to college.
