第四篇:英语口语不要随意说
许多小伙伴们往往会有这么一个共同特点,就是喜欢把“Oh My God”、“Oh Shit”、“What the F”等美剧中经常出现的高频口语挂在嘴边,其实在这些词背后有着不少深层的文化隐喻,它们可不是张口就能用的。有很多时候当你为了显示自己滔滔不绝的口语时,实际上可能已经在老外眼里被打上“不礼貌”甚至“傻×”的标签了。。
Oh my God!——能不说就别说
大家会说英语了,难免时不时的来一句Oh my God,尤其是碰上什么让我们惊讶、惊喜的事情时。比如说,一年前我离开家时门口正在修路,一年后我回去,居然看到同样的人还在那里修路,我会情不自禁的自言自语:Oh my God!So slow!
自言自语还好,如果是对老外说那就要小心了,不是因为老外不喜欢我们说他慢,而是一部分老外不喜欢我们把他们信仰的God和那些完全不相干的事情联系起来,而且对他直呼其名。
在英语世界,很多老外是不相信上帝的,而且,许多老外看不惯那些相信上帝的人。因此,一些不相信上帝的老外会把Oh my God挂在嘴边,从而对上帝和相信他的人一并讽刺。
很多身在英语直接的中国人也不相信上帝,但是我想我应该配合那些信上帝的人捍卫其权利,所谓信仰自由。这就得从少用、慎用Oh my God做起。
不过少用、慎用的尺度很难把握,因为有时很难知悉周围老外谁信上帝,谁不信上帝,谁半信不信,所以,要避免冒犯别人,对Oh my God最好是能避免。顺便避用Oh my Jesus和Oh my Christ,因为都和上帝有关。
戒了Oh my God后,我们可以用Oh my Gosh和Oh my goodness作为替代,这样既能表达我们的意思,又避免了对上帝及其信仰者的冒犯。
Excuse me,sir!也不能放心用?
我在国内曾经一度认为用中文称呼别人而困惑,尤其是称呼年轻的女子,本来好端端的一个称谓小姐,偏偏被用来特指一部分人了。本来嘴就笨,加上客观上缺乏合适的词,造成了我的称谓障碍。我这一障碍似乎迁移到了英文上,我用英文称呼别人方面至今未能做到得心应口,有时还犯错。比如,前几天我还因为要找个地方,在喧闹的大街上冲着迎面来的陌生老外大声嚷道:Excuse me,mister!出口才反应过来,忙改口:Excuse me,sir!好在老外行色匆匆,可能根本没听见我的话,或者根本不懂英语,就和我插肩而过,根本没看我一眼。
我之所以改口,是因为我说出Excuse me,mister!的一瞬间,就感觉自己说的是Excuse me,Mr。。!听起来仿佛我知道那位先生的姓名,只是一时记不起来,奋力想说出但是还是没说出的感觉。我想这也许是Mr不能单独使用,不能单独用来称呼别人的原因。
我想重点说一下这个sir。这个词很简单,简单到在香港找个不知道阿sir的人都难。我在读初中的时候就知道Excuse me,sir!了。几十年过去了,还在这里钻牛角尖,实在是另有隐情。
在我的记忆中,我说Excuse me,sir!的效果大多数不理想。说不理想,是因为我隐约感到老外看我的眼神有点异样,我严重怀疑那眼光中藏着一丝轻蔑。说来你可能不信,偏偏是我忘带sir,只冲他们大喊一声Excuse me!的时候,反而觉得能使他们立刻止步并殷勤的问我:Can I help you?
至此,我对sir的效果已经抱有怀疑态度。有两个老外,使我的怀疑有了突破。这两人的身份均是推销员,谈话中sir不绝口,不顾及我脸上尴尬的表情。
这让我想起我在路上大喊:Excuse me,sir!的时候,对方会不冷不淡的原因是因为他们把我当推销员了?
老外现在更喜欢在称呼上选择简单的版本,比起Excuse me,sir!,很多老外愿意用Excuse me!
说道sir,我们自然回想到Yes sir!在真实的会话情景中,这句话也已经很少用了。老外现在用这句话时多带有讽刺、调侃、开玩笑之意。比如:五岁的小男孩不让爸爸看书了,爸爸会说Yes sir!,然后报之一笑。
不过,在很多情况下,比如商业、服务业及其他较为正式的场合,除非对方另有建议,通常还是要用正式称呼的。
Yes还是No?傻傻分不清楚
懂YES和NO,会说YES和NO,是在英语学习中一个不小的进步。
我曾经一度听不懂YES和NO。说听不懂,当然不是浑然不知,而是指一时听不懂,没有及时反映过来YES和NO所知的到底是肯定还是否定。在和老外说话是,也常常在该说YES的时候说NO,在该说NO的时候说YES。
比如我们很多时候会这样说错YES和NO:
老外说:You can‘t buy trust。按我们的逻辑就直接回应:Yes(是的,我不能)。知错后立即补救,用Yeah、Right、Exactly等词含糊带过,希望对方能理解我们只是一片真心要附和他,不会察觉我们犯的错误。
你可能要辩称,这Yeah也未必算错。这不是因为你宽容,而是因为你可能也有前科。但是我想说的是:在此情此景中,我们为什么不能信心十足的说个NO来表示附和呢?该说NO的时候不敢肯定的说NO,就是错!
有时“OK”并不“OK”,只是你不知道而已!

1.上海出现的二,三十岁,啥也不干,靠父母养活的啃老族
1)They Have Grown Old, Not Up.There have been a special group of “children” nowadays in the metropolitans such as Shanghai, Guangzhou, who seem to never grow up.The reason is not physiological but psychological.These are the people, so called “Generation of The Twenties and Thirties” who still depend on their parents both financially and emotionally though they are physically mature.The explanation for this phenomenon involves several complex factors from the social influence, family education to inpidual element.But the key lies in the family.It's the parents who tolerate and sometimes even encourage their elder children to be dependent Born in the!ate 1970s or early 198OS, spoiled by their parents and grandparents, these group of people experienced so little in setbacks and adversity, and thus lack of basic living skills.When they grow up, confronted with such fierce competition in the society, they are soon at lost and then turn back to their parents eventually.It is high time for the parents who are wealthy enough to provide their children with the abounding materials to attach greater attention to their children's mental health.To teach them how to make money seems more important than pure monetary benefaction, just as the old saying tells us.Anyway, we don not welcome such a lost generation, do we?
2)四级
Nowadays, there is a phenomenon that person who is in his twenties or thirties still lives by the support of his parents.Well, even though he's in his mid-10s, he's still living at home with his parents.These people don't want to apply for a job so that they demand their money from their parents.This problem has caused wide public concern over the recent years.There are some possible reasons for the problem.In the first place, while they were in college, they didn't work hard on their study and didn't take part in some practice.In the second place, their parents spoiled them so much that these parents didn't let them do anything they can do easily.In view of the seriousness of thin problem, effective measures should be taken before things get worse.Young people should afford more family burden, or at least share it with their family.Great efforts must be made so as to ensure the healthy growth of these “children”.2.学术界的剽窃现象plagiarism(论文抄袭,知识产权作假等)
1)Academic Plagiarism Nowadays, more and more academic plagiarism was revealed to us.From collage education to music productions, and from academic papers to pop films, plagiarism have become rampant in China, and are eroding people's trust in academia and intellectual circles.Some such news has become the headlines recently, for example “Xi Shuashua” by the Chinese pop band The Flowers is suspected of plagiarizing the song from Japanese band, and two writers accused Dan Brown, the book writer of “The Da Vinci Code”, of plagiarism--stealing someone else's words or ideas.These facts has arose many discussion about why, are there so many plagiarism as the prosperity of our culture and art? Moreover, these facts also questioned us about how to regulate the order of academia and intellectual circles?
As far as I am concerned, there are two reasons to explain this phenomenon.First it is the strong urge to be famous that drive many people to plagiarize.Then it is because of the ineffectiveness of legislation that promotes the activities of plagiarism.In order to stop these activities of plagiarism, our government and legislature must bear in mind and meanwhile lead our countrymen to believe that academic plagiarism is sort of moral corruption: moral purity has the priority to one's fame and material satisfaction.As China marks the World Consumer Rights Day, the spotlight would inevitably be on poor products and shoddy service.But attention is also being focused on the rights of a special group of consumers: subscribers or readers of academic and literal journals.2)四级
In college courses, we are continually engaged with other people's ideas: we read them in texts, hear them in lecture, discuss them in class, and incorporate them into our own writing.As a result, it is very important that we give credit where it is due.Plagiarism is using others' ideas and words without clearly acknowledging the source of that information, and this phenomenon appears in academic field now and then.People who plagiarize others' work or research results abandoned themselves to false reputation, deceiving others even including themselves.They enjoy the reputations which actually belong to someone else.At the same time, they may feel guilty of their plagiarisms.Plagiarisms make people idle and spare no effort to make real research and study, which waken the research atmosphere of academic field.Plagiarism, which is never acceptable, is a great poison to our academic field.What we should do is to take measures to fight against this ugly phenomenon.3.评论“以崇尚科学为荣,以愚昧无知为耻”
“Honor to those who quest for science, and shame on those refuse to be educated.” Not only for a country, a region, a city, the development of a company, but also for each person.For my part, it ought to become a common thought of the entire nation.Firstly, only when you uphold science, can you make use of it.To uphold science must object and take leave of ignorance, which can make you have feels of urgency and scientific development view.Secondly, nowadays, the people company needs should not only have diploma, high education backgrounds, but also have the technological brain.Only when you are provided with scientific thinking awareness, and continuously study hard, can you create the value.Thirdly, science is the most authentic, dependable, as well as noble and glory.To set up the scientific spirit, operate the scientific method, develop the scientific thought, and possess the scientific attitude, should be each of us untiring pursuit.All in all, we had better advance the qualities of ourselves so that the company and the society would develop better and quicker.Science will give a hand to the people, company and our motherland to be prosperous and flourishing!评论“以诚实守信为荣,以见利忘义为耻。”
The eight honors and eight disgraces presented by Chairman Hu Jintao have already become criteria defining those “dos” and “don'ts” in contemporary society.Among them “To advocate honesty and credibility and condemn unrighteousness in face of profits” seems to have more practical instruction nowadays.China, in the past one year has experienced several cases of dishonesty which have caused credit crisis for the country and the citizens.From being fined abroad for wearing fake brand-name clothes to being denounced internationally for demonstrating counterfeit computer chip, from paper plagiarism in a prestigious university to the copyright trouble of some wide-spread songs, perhaps never in the time as today are we supposed to reclaim the importance of being honest.As we all know, “Honesty is the best policy.” To keep credit is one of the essential principles in communication.It is hard to imagine a person with credit problem can make any friends and achieve any success.So let us hold the leader's saying in mind and for a college student, to be honest in exams and refuse to plagiarize in paper writing is the first step in building our credit.4.当代大学生应读具备的基本素质有哪些? 1)What Should We Have as College Students? As the enlargement of college enrollment, there has been and will be more and more college graduates entering our fast-moving society.In order to get ourselves fully prepared and to adjust oneself to new working condition, we should try to obtain as much as we can.But what basic qualities should we have to meet the future challenges?
It is generally believed that college is an knowledge ocean through which we can develop all aspects of our character and it goes without saying that we do try a lot and gain much knowledge and experiences which will prove to be valuable later in our lives and careers but what college education teaches me the most is the ability to learn by oneself or to say the ability to relearn is what we should master as a college student.College will teach us a lot of useful technique and skills which would fade away as time goes by.If we want to take the leading position and always top the list, we must take every chance to learn new ideas and theories.The unique teaching methods and facilities of a college provide us the chance to develop our relearning abilities through “learning by lists”.2)The Qualities the College Students Should Have
What is a college student supposed to be? What is a qualified student should be? There are varieties of opinions about the appropriate answers.In my view, there are top 3 qualities that a college student should possess.The first, communication skills including verbal and written.We live in such a world that timely and effective communication and information exchange east save us much time, energy and resources.For this reason, we college students should make ourselves well ready to entering the~ society by improving our communication skills effectively.The second, teamwork skills, which make one works well with others.Whether in or out of college, these skills are extremely essential for us, without which we can hardly imagine our study or work life.By teamwork, we can share information, study or work fruits and even our intelligence, through which we could achieve our goal more easily and effectively.There are also some other qualities that college students should have, such as integrity, analytical skills, initiative and detail-oriented, which make us more qualified.5.关于大学合并
1)The Combination of Colleges From the year 1998, a new word came into being: Colleges Combination and as time goes by more and more relatively small colleges combined and cooperated and formed many large universities.Every sword has its double blades and every item has two sides.The combination brings both advantages and disadvantages both to the university and its students.Universities benefits a lot through combination: the university shares more teaching resources and facilities, and the integrated power will enhance with the increasing number of majors and subjects.Moreover the scale of university is improved after the combination of resource.The single subject is substituted by the multiple subjects.The structure of education is becoming logical gradually.As for students, there will be more options in a comparatively large university.Although combination bring a lot of advantages but it brings some trouble in managing a university.And it is very hard to choose a suitable name for a combined university as well.2)
There are some heated discussions about combination of colleges recent years.Some people think it an excellent idea to make two or more colleges combine to one, while others think it not so effective.Of course, a coin has its two sides, and in my view, its advantages is over its disadvantages.Firstly, combination brings ns more information and resources, which we can share to improve each college included in the combination, saving manpower and money.Secondly~ more various gathered courses provide students more choices and broaden their views.Thirdly, colleges combine to one college does good to gathering the advantages to make the combination more powerful.Of course, the combination of colleges doesn't simply mean“l+1=2”, so, before combination, detailed development and research is needed.A good preparation is necessity to the combination.6.人与自然和谐共生(由《无极》破坏自然环境引发的感想)
1)Contemplation on Promise
Promise, the latest movie directed by Chen Kaige has become the focus of the public attention, not because of its artistic value, but of its destructive influence on the environment in the process of film making.Maybe the director could contribute this to the misfeasance of the staff, but the mistake is unforgivable.Human beings are an integral part of nature, thus, human beings should also obey the law of nature.The idea of life is to attain harmony between man and nature.We cannot say that Mr.Chen intentionally destroyed the environment;it was the negligence of our mother nature that led this disastrous outcome.We moderns live more harmoniously-much harmoniously-with nature than did our primitive ancestors, it is our obligation to leave a sustainable living condition to our offspring.To live harmoniously with nature is to understand and accept natural forces.The greater this understanding and acceptance, the greater the harmony will be.Natural forces are what they are.Praying for miracles is fruitless;these forces will do what they do.Only people who understand these forces and how to counteract or reinforce or sustain or alter them with other natural forces can be truly said to live harmoniously with nature.The promise has given us a vivid lesson to attach much more importance to the harmony of nature.2)These days the quality of our natural environment has called an increasing amount of public attention about which we are concerned owing to which our living conditions are getting more and more serious.The main factors that cause environment destruction is actually our human being.It is people that throw millions of tons of rubbish into the environment.It is also people that destroy the balance of nature and so it is the same with the overuse of natural resources.Recently, it is reported that the filming of Promise had bad effects on the environment of Shangri-la, which deserves to be considered.There are still many measures should be taken to solve the environmental problems.People should have further instruction on the importance of environment.Meanwhile, the government should make more strict laws to protect our surroundings from being spoiled.Only through our joint efforts can we live in the harmony with the nature.7.大学期间如何将所学的知识与实践结合起来(兼职、见习、暑期工等)
1)Knowledge and Practice
There is no one denying the importance of gaining knowledge, for knowledge is power, but another aspect of acquiring knowledge--should not be neglected, for practice makes better.Knowledge and practice is interdependent with each other.The textbook knowledge only functions as a solid foundation for the future work of college students, whereas what counts in the end is work experience, which cannot be obtained just in the learning of books.Only through constant work can they accumulate their experience and meet the requirement in their job.Knowledge is the foundation of practice;consequently, practice promotes the further apprehension of knowledge.As a result, it is obvious and necessary that adequate measures should be taken into action to combine knowledge and practice for the college students, such as part time jobs, probations and other social practice.These practices cannot only offer the opportunity to keep track of the fast developing society, but are also helpful in the mastering of textbook knowledge.2)It has been said, “Not everything that is learned is contained in books”.The knowledge gained from the experience is a supplement to that from books.How can we integrate the knowledge from books into the practice? First of all, it is common that some college students should do some part-time jobs.However, the jobs must be related with their majors.Only in this way can we improve their abilities.Besides, there should be some practical manipulations on campus.We east pide our lessons into two parts: instructing knowledge as one part and the manipulation as the other.The teachers can offer some suggestions on our operation.Another way is we can make most of our vacations.After a term full of course arrangements, we should walk out of the ivory tower and catch the opportunity to know more of ourselves and of our personal value in society.Naturally, the most important thin~ is to keep a good balance, place our study on top of the list and assign an adequate amount of time to it.8.建议信:建议学校在毕业之前开设就业指导课程,使得毕业生能够及时地适应社会,从而减轻就业压力。
1)Dear Sir or Madam,I am an undergraduate of the University.I am writing to you with great sincerity to suggest that a course of occupation guidance should be offered on our campus.I am very grateful that there are a lot of important lessons which enrich our knowledge and help us set up a solid academic foundation.However, when it comes to the problem of job hunting, most of the courses are not very practical, as a result of which, we need more detailed and useful instruction about our occupation.The occupation guidance course could be pided into several parts: the psychology course would be helpful in the adaptation to the severe competition in the society;the interview skill training will give us great confidence when we face the interviewer of the company, and the career strategy guideline will help up find our way to success.I firmly believed that the occupation guidance course is essential and helpful, and I would be grateful if my suggestions are taken into consideration.Yours truly, Simon
2)Dear Sir or Madam, I'm writing to express my view concerning about the related guided class set before the graduation.In the case of fierce competition in society, it is clear that the school should assist the graduates in doing the preparations for their jobs.Besides, students must walk out of the Ivory Tower so that they can adapt themselves to the society more quickly when they graduate.What's more, it is reported that psychological obstacle has ranked the fourth place of the disease of students' psychology.The students usually have high anticipation of the future job.If the students have acquaintance of what the real society look like, they will be optimistic about the failure of interviews and prepare for the frustration.As far as I'm concerned, it is necessary for the institution to open the guided class for the graduates.Thank you for your attention and look forward to your reply.Yours truly,Clinton
9.咨询信:如何申请成为北京奥运自愿者 1)Dear Sir or Madam:
I am Nash, an undergraduate student of the department of English.I 'm excited about the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games and would very much like to be a volunteer.I speak English fluently and I have some knowledge of sports.I have visited some website about volunteer of Beijing Olympic, but I got little about it.Indeed, it's a great thing to bring volunteers from all over the world for the incoming Olympics.This will help China, to have many kinds of cultures and it will be beneficial to everyone.I would like to be a volunteer, please tell me how I apply for that, I hope I will be given this wonderful opportunity.If I were chosen as one of the volunteers, I will give my best-quality volunteer service that I possibly can give to help make this one of the most memorable Olympic events ever held.I would be highly appreciated if you consider my application.Thank you!
Yours Truly
Nash 2)Dear Sir or Madam,I am a college student in Beijing majoring in international economic law.Maybe it is due to my being young and special interests in public affairs that I am inclined to apply for the posts you've provided for college students to be interns and volunteers for the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.However, I've found it inaccessible to enough information about your criteria on selecting a volunteer, which urged me to write to you.All my wonders are revolving whether it is acceptable for a senior student to participate in your program.Graduate as I am to be, I will still have adequate time to serve for it on the grounds that I have already been admitted as a postgraduate student to maintain my student's life so that I won't be distracted by job hunting.Moreover, I am wondering to what extent my good command of English and French will contribute to the accomplishment of all the assigned tasks.Sincerely,Li Hua

2)Dir Sir,I am the Chairman of Students Union and this is.Meant to inform you of a summer camp sponsored by all the staff and students of Department of' Economics that has been conceived for approximately two months.We came up with this idea after you delivered the speech on economical analysis of luxury consumption, in which you had revealed the hidden principles regulating and restricting mankind's consuming behaviors theoretically.The hints you provided has nudged all the students attending your course, who is keen to demonstrate your theorem through practices and polls.The main goal of the summer camp is to collect data of the probabilities on how consumers will react when they are confronted with different situation where the ultimate choice is no more than purchasing a much more expensive commodity beyond their purchasing power.Of course, the incidents occurring during the survey are totally random and in a large quantity.Drawing on both our intuition and previous successful invitation, we dare say you will join us without hesitation, won't you?
Yours Sincerely
Nash
11.谈“与时俱进”对当代大学生的指导意义
1)Keeping Pace with the Times
The former chairman Jiang Zimen's renowned remark“ To keep pace with the times.” is so often quoted as the instruction for political and economic development that it seems to have nothing to do with the education realm, say, college students.But recently, the number is on increase when some college elites argue the meaning of the famous saying is not particular but universal.They claim that the college enrollees are the very group who are supposed to keep pace with the times.From the academic standpoint, college students should be well informed with the latest knowledge and information in order to meet the demands of the society.Meanwhile, their minds should also be updated when pondering over some unsettled social problems.Above all, their experiences are to be refreshed frequently so that they can easily fit into the realistic world after graduation.So, as we can see, the instructive saying of “keeping pace with the times” has a profound influence on every citizen, the college students, and no exception.2)As we know “advance with the times” means we should follow the steps of the times closely and make all-around progress continuously.To be concrete, it requests our theory, path, creed, guide line and other kinds of works all need to follow the developments of the times, practice and science and advance continuously and across-the-board.To our undergraduates, I think we should pay more attention to the new theory.We all know that the undergraduates are the erectors and successors of the cause of building China's socialism, the dominant force of the new century.So the mental connotation of “advance with the times” certainly influences the undergraduates.We should realize ourselves rightly and manage to perfect us.12.大学里,参加校园活动(社团)的意义。1)
Campus activities have been organized in many universities and colleges.These activities range from academic to recreational, such as academic reports, social consulting services, speech contests, poet's club, painting clubs, singing and dancing groups, etc.These activities provide students with two major advantages.First of all, they play a positive role in improving students' studies.Due to their heavy schedules, students are often busy themselves with textbooks and seldom expose themselves to a colorful life.But the variety of the activities provides opportunities for them to relax themselves and enrich their minds and knowledge.In addition, the activities also serve students living in the “ivory tower” have little chance to get in touch with society.Now the activities open the door for participants to leave their classrooms and get to know society.All this offers an important means for students to broaden their horizons.They believe with the right kind of guidance and help campus activities will continue to grow and flourish.2)
Controversy may arise when a freshman or sophomore is willing to participate in several societies or associations on the risk of academic failure or in the expense of romance and leisure time.Nevertheless, the great significance concerning a modest participation in campus groups will be fully indicated, and thus approved by those opponents strongly against it.The obvious benefits emerging several years after graduation might be the esprit de corps achieved through cooperation and compromise in a campus organization which commonly exist in nearly every social entity as a fundamental working mechanism.This profound comprehension in team work will not loom so large until the school-leavers get involved in a much more sophisticated system than they previously coped with.Another treasure these activities present should be the high efficiency to handle both study and after-class activities without' conflicts, which later becomes potential competitive powers in a world dominated by unceasingly evolved knowledge.To sum up, those underlying advantages will be ignored if you don't track down what lead you to success finally.13.考试作弊(Cheating on Exams)
1)Why do some students cheat in the exams? First of all, many of them do not work hard, and they are always putting off what they should have grasped until the last day just before the exam.So in the exam, cheating has to be their choice.Meanwhile, they cheat in order to get a good mark, and to make sure their parents or teachers won't criticize them and their classmates won't laugh at them.However, cheating in examinations has a series of bad influences on students.It will severely corrupt the study atmosphere, and accordingly result in an unfair competition.In the long run, it will ruin the students' honesty.Therefore, it is high time we students fought against cheating in exams.As a student, I will be an honest candidate in every exam from now on.2)Hidden earphones, wireless information transmission and the professional “ringers”, it seems that exam cheating nowadays has entered a new' era, in which the dishonest behavior involves much technical elements.Why do the examinees take risk to cheat rather than to make a good preparation? The explanation for this issue is concerned with several interrelated factors.As for the students, two many distractions against academic studies have turned out to be haste in pre-exam preparation.Social communication, campus activities and cyber life addiction all take upper hand in attracting students' attention than routine learning.What's more, some professors' tolerance even encourages the students' unrighteous behaviors.And above all, the mild punishment and the “flexible” disciplines and regulations in the university in dealing with exam cheating contribute most in the increase in this misbehavior.Compared with being expelled from school in most foreign universities, our penalty for cheating seems too “humanitarian”.In a word, to get rid of the phenomenon of exam cheating calls for a joint effort from the school leaders, and professors and of course the students themselves who are supposed to realize the true meaning of the old saying, “Honesty is the best policy.”

1)The Prevalence of Western Holidays
It is noticeable that western holidays are becoming increasingly popular day by day, while Chinese traditional holidays are being somewhat neglected.Old people often complain that Chinese New Year has lost its real meaning.To their astonishment, young people in China, ignorant about Chinese traditional holidays, are crazy about Christmas or Valentine's Day.There are several possible reasons for this phenomenon.First, western nations, such as the United States and Britain, are powerful and dominant in every aspect.Everything in these countries is assumed to be superior and adored by some modern young people.Second, the prevalence of English as a world language and the development of globalization enable western culture to flood in China.Overwhelmed by such a trend, Chinese unconsciously get involved in western culture.Last but not least, some Chinese people have blind faith in foreign things while dismiss our own possessions with contempt.I am critical of this trend.China boasts a brilliant history and splendid traditions.In modern times, Chinese tradition should be preserved and promoted.But it seems that young people no longer treasure the tradition.On the contrary, they turn to pursue enthusiastically a supposedly more modern culture.If this trend is allowed to continue, the priceless heritage of our ancestors will be replaced by western traditions.Nobody expects such a consequence.So let’s join hand in hand to protect Chinese tradition.2)My view on the prevalence of foreign festivals in China Many festivals that didn't exist in our mind before are now becoming an indispensable part of our lives.As we are learning the language used in countries that boast cultural dominance worldwide, we're exposed half naked under their direct influence.Festival, as a carrier of condensed culture, duly came to us, bringing changes only the wise could properly digest.Despite it all, we shall not lose our ground rooted in our Chinese culture.Over thousands of year, the uniqueness and ancientness of Chinese culture has been preserved and honored by countless generations of Chinese people.It has never before faced with challenges from overseas as it now does.Like new streams of blood, the intrusion of western ideas, festivals, languages, etc.presented high possibility of the corruption of our local culture.They brought new ideas and good intentions, together with freshness and sense of fashion, but the point is that we should never let go of our tradition.We can celebrate them all, experiencing more warm moments, yet it's the Chinese ones that made us who we are.15.心理健康

One in four people will experience some kind of mental health problem in the course of a year.When you fail to manage to control these problems, they are likely to cause various mental illnesses and, as a result of physiological imbalance, physical illnesses.You may not be able to live a normal life, let alone a fulfilling one.The causes of mental health problems often vary a lot from one case to another.In today's society, a good number of people are suffering from heavy pressure.Others are lacking in communication skills and feel they are living in an isolated world.In addition, a lot of people are ignorant of psychological knowledge about how to keep mentally fit.There are a lot of ways to curb mental health problems and keep psychologically healthy.Firstly, find the real cause of your mental health problem and see whether you can do something to make a change.Secondly, learn to relax yourself and take exercise to release the pressure.After all, your health is what counts most.Lastly, you may find it helpful to talk to your partner, a relative or a friend about your problems, or seek support and advice from a psychological consultant.16.和谐宿舍生活

On a Harmonious Dormitory Life
Dormitory life is an indispensable part of college life.But sometimes the harmony in the dormitory will be disturbed in one way or another.For example, some members listen to music late into the night and make those light sleepers restless.Worse still, the smell of some students' socks is powerful enough to drive other members out of the room.As is known to all, a harmonious dormitory life is important to college students and benefits all the members.On one hand, we can have a good rest and put our heart into study.On the other hand, we will have a good mood and enjoy being together.In contrast, an unharmonious life will be depressing and counterproductive.There are several ways to create and maintain a harmonious dormitory life.Firstly, you have to evaluate your life style and try to get rid of your dirty habits, if there are any.Secondly, when an annoying situation arises, you'll just have to learn to tolerate each other and co-exist.Thirdly, you'll have to share with each other and make good friends.In conclusion, we should try our best to build a harmonious dormitory life for the purpose of good study and good life.17.申请助学贷款

A Letter to the University President about the Goods Promotion on Campus
Dear Mr.President,April 21, 2006
Nowadays the goods promotion on campus is on the rise.When you are taking a nap on the dormitory, you will be disturbed by knocks on the door by a salesman.Most of those goods promoted are of poor quality.Worse still, this poses a potential danger on the security of the dormitory.Why is the goods promotion so pervasive on campus? Firstly, many salesmen believe that college students are naive and can be easily deceived.Secondly, a number of students, especially the freshmen, are in great need of various necessities at the beginning of each semester.Thirdly, some students want to take part-time jobs and earn some money.As for this kind of phenomenon, I'd like to put forward some suggestions.On the one hand, those professional salesmen should not be allowed to enter the dormitory to promote their goods.On the other hand, no promotion activity should be allowed during noon break.I hope in this way our campus life will be left undisturbed.Yours,Li Hui

Dear fellow students,Good evening.Here comes the coverage of the final basketball match of our school league.The match was held in the school stadium in the morning.One team was from the English Department, and the other from the Maths Department.The game began at 8: 30.AH the players brought their potential into full play.Both teams took the lead by turns.The biggest margin was less than ten points.It was really the closest game I have ever watched.When there was 5 seconds left, the team from the English Department lagged narrowly behind by two points.At the last second, Li Qiang scored a three pointer and put the English team in lead by one point.Tile audience burst into thunderous applause and cheers.At last, the English team screwed a 75-74 win over the Maths team.All of the players on both teams played marvelously, with the leading scorer Li Qiang, He scored 26 points, 10 of them in the decisive final quarter.Besides, he also snatched 9 rebounds.NO wonder he was elected the MVP of the game.That's the exciting report on the game.Thank you.20.大学生消费比例图(图表)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic College Students' Consumption.You should write at least 120 words, and base your composition on the outline given below in Chinese: 1.右图所示为我国某城市大学生消费结构的比例,请对此进行分析;

College Students' Consumption
In what way do college students spend their money? On this issue, the above chart tells us a lot.We know from the chart that money for food and daffy commodities, with 34% of the total spending, occupies the largest part of college students' consumption.It is really true that food is the first necessity of man.Another 16% goes for entertainment and 8% for traveling, which shows that the life of college students is getting more and more colorful.They know not only how to study but also how to relax as well as enjoy their life.12% for clothing tells us that college students pay much attention to their appearance and are eager to keep up with the fashion.And there is no denying that the clothing of the college students really helps them show their vitality and personality.However, 17% for mobile phone fee while only 13% for study provides no reason for us to be optimistic.Of course, we can understand that mobile phones give us a lot of convenience and help us get in touch with each other easily.But money on mobile phone fee seems a little too much.In conclusion, we can learn to certain degree the status and trend of college students' consumption from the chart.Basically, their consumption is reasonable and realistic.But some instructions on their consumption are still needed.As our society is developing, the way college students spend their money will be further varied.21.申请信(英语俱乐部)Directions: For this part you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic ~A Letter of Inquiry of Applying for an English Club.You should write at least 120 words, and base your composition on the outline given be-low in Chinese:

A Letter to the University President Dear Sir,I am writing to put up some suggestions concerning our teaching and campus life.As a sophomore from the Match Department, I am quite satisfied with the present condition of my university, but I'd like to say that there is still some room for improvement
First, I believe that more attention should be paid to the guidance of our study methods.To some extent, university students are capable of studying by themselves, but more often than never, we find ourselves at a loss as to choose good books to read and appropriate topics for our research.It is clear that we need some advice from our teachers.If our teachers can lecture more on “how to learn by yourself” for us, especially for the freshmen, our skills will be further improved.Second, more activities should be conducted to make our campus life more colorful.I'm sorry to say that the present life on campus is quite boring.Every day we have classes, read in the library, or stay in the dormitory.Life here is routine.We need more meaningful activities organized to enrich our college life and enable us to study more efficiency.I hope you can consider my suggestions.Thank you.Yours sincerely Li Ming

What Are College Students Doing on the Internet?
Nowadays surfing the Internet has become very popular on campus.I am impressed most that many college students spend too much time playing games and chatting on the Internet.As is well known, chatting and playing and can do much harm to us if we spend too much time on the virtual world.Firstly, it is an enormous waste of time and we will have little time for our study.Secondly, those who play games or chat it day and night will be harmed physically-or lack of rest and sleep.Thirdly, our social ties will suffer as a result of the immersion in the virtual world.The last but not the least, it will cost us much money.In my opinion, we should deal with the Internet carefully.On the one hand, we can get some pleasure and knowledge from the Internet.On the other hand, we shouldn't spend too much time, energy and money on the Internet because study is our priority.In conclusion, we should make good and proper use of the Internet.25.道歉信:论文迟到

How to Increase Your Working Experience in University
While studying in university, students are required to make a detailed study of the knowledge in the books.Certainly the academic knowledge is the foundation for future work, but it is not the only thing that students have to acquire.Some working experience is also indispensable for them to adapt themselves to the future occupations.How to increase the working experience without the sacrifice of studies?
Firstly, I think, the students should get mentally and physically prepared for the coming part-time jobs.Secondly, they should widen the scope of choices.Whenever mentioning the part-time jobs, students will inevitably think of tutoring little kids or working in the supermarkets.In fact, there are a lot of other choices, such as working as volunteers for some associations, teaching in some less developed areas, and writing articles for newspapers.Finally, write down promptly what they have learned from work.By doing so, they could have deep impression of that experience and make it really valuable for the future work.In a word, working experience gained while the students are studying in university will benefit them throughout their lives.28.大学生课余时间分配(图表)

1.请描述大学生的时间分配状况;
2.分析这种状况产生的原因;
3.给出该如何使用时间的建议。
The distribution of student's Study Time
Since college students are grown-ups, they are able to arrange their time according to their own needs.It is said that college students will spend 20% of their spare time(out-class time)on reviewing and previewing lessons, 20% on making friends and on some other social contacts and 40%^ on enjoying themselves by window shopping, going to movies or reading some novels.From the this percentage, we can find that the majority of the college students' spare time is spent on enjoying themselves while only a small percent of the time is allotted to studying.I think there are two reasons for this phenomenon.Firstly, the college students do not bear as heavy studying burden as the middle school students, so they want to relax themselves after the college entrance examination.Secondly, some college students hold the idea that the more social contacts you make the more chance you will have to get a good job in the future.So studying hard is not necessary.Although college students are grown-ups and have the ability to allot their time, I don't think the above-mentioned percentage is quite rational.In my opinion, college students should spend much more time on their lessons.Of course, making friends, having some social contacts and enjoying themselves are necessary parts in their life, but the percentage they take should be smaller.Anyway, the major task for college students is to study.29.校园占座现象
My View on Seats Preoccupation on Campus
If you see a student in a college holding a number of cushions in his arm and heading for the lecture room around 9 PM just before gonging back to the dorm, don't feel surprised or even panic.Because everyone knows what he is doing to preoccupy the seats for the lecture next day, of course, not only for himself, his GF or dorm mates, but also for anyone who has the same intention.When it comes to the phenomenon of preoccupying seats on campus, a majority of people will condemn this behavior for its selfishness.However, when we further analyze the different motives of the students, you would see they are not the same cases.If the purpose is to get a better seat for better understanding of the course, instead of being criticized, I think these group students should be highly spoken of for their initiatives.As the English saying goes,“ It's the early bird that catches the worm.” On the other hand, if the purpose is to get a fitter seat for a better sleeping or an absent mind, not only his cushion, but also himself should be thrown out of the classroom.A compulsory attendance without the proper attitude can even spoil the lecture, hurting the professor and the students at the same time.Yet the third occasion might be more disturbing or even irritating, that is to leave a preoccupied seat empty in the lecture.For these group people, maybe some educational methods are to be adopted, because they are just the ones we term as selfish grasping the opportunity beforehand, but not valuing it, meanwhile depriving of others' chances.As we can see, behind the phenomenon of seats preoccupation exist different motives and purpose, but one conclusion seems.quite evident ~ opportunities always favor those prepared minds, but once you have got them, cherishment would be more significant.30.偶像的力量
The Power of an Idol In the year of 2005, perhaps no TV program has attracted so many youngsters' eyes as the “Super girls” of Hunan TV and the words “PK” and “Suspended”, though not coinages, have wedged into prevailing vocabulary overnight.Notwithstanding some critics consider the program as sheer commercial promotion, we can not deny the charm and power of the new idols like Li Yu-chun, Zhou Bi-chang and Zhang Liang-ying, who used to be average girls like anyone else.These so-called “Mass Idols” have inspired millions of youngsters to pursue their goals with confidence and perseverance they have never had before.“If you want to sing, just do it;and if you have a dream, just go ahead to realize it.” Greatly influenced by the real cases, a growing number of youngsters believe that as long as they put endeavor to what they are doing, they will make it in the end.More meaningful than pure preaching, the new successful idols have demonstrated vivid examples for young people to imitate.Perhaps every person has got his or her idols in life and the power of an idol can be reasonably concluded as spiritual inspiration, vivid demonstration and concrete imitation.I quite approve of the practice in the newly edited English books for primary school students, in which the well-adored idols like Yao Ming, Lin Xiang and Andy Lau have been listed as typical examples of great efforts and great achievements.In a word, the power of an idol will be eventually converted into the power of a young man in striking forward.31.暑期计划
My plans for The Summer Vacation
Another summer vacation is drawing nearer.It's for everyone a time of dedication to things that interest him the most, yet most of us won't bother drawing a detailed plan beforehand to make it full and meaningful.My plans for summer vacations over the years worked wonderfully well, so, here it goes once again for this year.I won't drop the prime task of a student out of my mind for sure.Finding some time to devote to study will definitely be it, especially in such a time when pressure on employment has become so enormous.Another important issue is to find a part-time job somewhere in order to gain some social experiences or communication skills in order to meet the social needs.Yeah, that's what we lack the most!Beside that, in such a short duration of time, during which we'll be relatively free, it's necessary to pay some visits to my relatives and friends alike, whilst a visit would mean so much!
So, I’ll do all these things separately and orderly in preparation for a promising new term, over which I'll have grown into a qualified college students and a mature man.32.地震后的阶段性总结
Short-term Conclusion after the Earthquake
Never in the history has China been encountered with such severe natural disaster and never in the time have the Chinese been so united when facing the overwhelming damage, both material and philosophical, which, to everyone's relief, turned out to be a stimulus to get the nation motivated in extending affection.Nearly a month after the calamitous/destructive earthquake in Sichuan province occurred, the local residents gradually stepped out of the misery and got on the way of recovery of normal life and this can be attributed to three main encouraging elements.First, the prompt presence of the summit of the nation, Chairman Huo Jintao and Premier Wen Jiabao gave unlimited bravery and confidence for the suffering mass.In addition, thanks to the utter devotion and high efficiency of the PLA men, survivors had constantly “broken the record” for living utmost.Above all, the nationwide donation and influx/inrushing of volunteers provide great comfort to the broken hearts, especially for the children who are, more than ever in bad need for the psychological therapy.Just like what Premier Wen said “Only after surviving/getting through many torments can a nation truly thriving.We had lost some in the past but are surely to get more since we had win confidence.33.地震后的反思
Reflection after the Earthquake
On the l2 May, 2008, just before the Beijing Olympic Games, a disastrous event happened in Sichuan, China---the Earthquake.The disaster has passed, and apart from mourning for the death and encouraging the alive, what else can we do to help?
Actually, this earthquake knocked a sound alarm to our government as well as each Chinese.We can see in the television or on the internet that not many buildings survived the incident, especially teaching buildings.One explanation may be the construction of the building is not reliable.Therefore, our government should pay more attention on the designation of new buildings to be rebuilt.Besides, the natural disaster may somehow be regarded as a special way in which our nature communicates with human beings.We have to reflect on what we have done do our environment.It is high time that we controlled our lust to abuse the natural resources.After the earthquake, many healthy men became disabled, and many children suffered the great sorrow of losing their beloved parents.How to comfort them besides giving some financial aids? And shouldn't we focus more about psychological inference? Shouldn't we arrange some lessons which work on the escaping skills when emergency happens? In deed, a lot to think about!

35.压力与乐观
大学生面对着学习生活考试就业等多方面的压力,有一个积极向上的乐观心态是非常重要不管遇到怎样的困难和压力,哪怕是灾难,也要有乐观精神,积极面对,勇敢应对。
Pressure and Optimism
To accept the fact that pressure is inevitable is the most common one of growing pains experienced by everyone when he steps on the threshold of real world.Pressure knocks at your door whenever you want to get, change or avoid something.Due to its inevitability, the best way to deal with pressure is to face up to and conquer it.Various incidents in life may lead to a stressful mental state, of which academic achievements, love relationship and job hunting top all others for college students.Not only will pressure offer no helping hand, but it'll also produce negative impact on the conditions confronting us.Instead of bettering them, pressure is making things worse.Complicated as they may seem, these adverse conditions are of course not invincible.Only by adjusting ourselves and making reasonable actions can we reduce the negative effect caused by pressure to the minimum, strengthen our confidence and resolve the tough situations.Optimism can sometimes be the best policy.36.感谢信(企业捐助大学生)
Letter of Thanks My dear manager,First of all, I must thank you for your kindness to me.I really appreciate it that your company has been providing financial aid during the past four years.Without your sincere help, I couldn't have finished my courses so smoothly.Four years ago, faced with the cost, an unbearable sum, of my school's tuition, dormitory fee and board budget, I had expected to give up my dream, even if I was so unwilling to.Fortunately, opportunity came to me that ”Project Hope“ and your company did give me a hand and helped me realize my dream.As a proverb says, ”A friend in need is a friend indeed“, and you are a true one.Finally, I make a promise that when I accomplish my study, I will spare no effort to do whatever I can to support other university students like me and devote all myself to our country.Thanks for your help once again.37.防火须知
Caution of Fire When a fire burst, you are supposed to… 1.Stay calm.2.Leave the building as soon as possible.3.Dial 119 as soon as possible.4.Close the windows and doors before leaving in case the fire spreads.5.Notify other people if you are safe.6.Do not go back to your room to take any of your belongings, variables included.7.Shout out loud for help or sound the fire alarm if you're near one.8.Use a wet towel to cover your mouth and nose.9.Leave with your body bent along the wall.10.Take the fire escape instead of staircase or elevator.Keep the above in your mind all the time.Remember an accident always turns out to be a tragedy at a thread of ignorance.38.网络教育
1.目前网络教育形成高潮:
2.我认为这股热潮形成的原因是…… 3.我对网络教育的评价。
Online Education It is not until very recent years that online education has been paid attention to.More and more people choose to study on the internet and it has brought and is bringing to us a lot of changes in the education field:
As far as reasons for this phenomenon concerned, there are many factors involved, and here I will only mention the most important three ones.To begin with, now many adults have realized the importance of knowledge, but they can not be confined to schools any longer.Furthermore, online education is more flexible and can provide many choices.Everyone can choose what to study and what time to study.The last but not least, online education is more interactive that students will be stimulated to grasp the knowledge they are interested in.Online education is still a new thing and leaves much to be desired.We should avoid shortcomings and try our best to make full use of it.39.关于 “师范生免费”
Nowadays, a newly released policy enlightened many poor students: students in certain normal universities can enjoy free tuition on condition that they would go back to their hometown to be a teacher for ten years, which is a ”win-win“ solution for both the students and the society.The exemption of tuition can not only relieve the financial burden of the students from the undeveloped areas, but also guarantee the supply of qualified teachers objectively, for which most educators would give their applause.On one hand, it provides a golden chance for those students from remote regions to receive higher education, which can help to enrich their knowledge and enlarge their horizon.On the other hand, it is the education that decides the future development of a region, and it is the teaching level that determines the quality of education.Therefore, if more college graduates can contribute to education industry, if a lager number of them can stand on the platform in classrooms and if they can also spread what they have learned during college to more students, the education quality will be greatly improved, which will in mm benefit the economic development to turn the undeveloped areas into highly-developed regions.Therefore, in order to quicken the development step of our country, we should create more chances youngsters to attend universities and encourage them to plough into future work!
40.大学生的身心健康
College athletics It is known to us all that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.The uncountable subjects, enormous homework and constant examinations have driven youngsters into great study pressure and begin to influence their health as well.Therefore, college athletics have become an indispensable part of college education.College athletics contribute both to students' physical well-being and to their mental well-being.There is a new appreciation of the importance of sports as students' bodies are increasingly weak and vulnerable to disease because of the lack of adequate physical exercise.School authorities, as well as students themselves, have realized that sports are especially necessary to a person who works with their brain most of the day.Besides, sports offer a healthy form of escape from their monotonous routine studies.Taking part in swimming, jogging and ball games can make their academic life richer and fuller.And, most importantly, sports help to promote the development of a student's personality.Such traits of characters as competitiveness, self-discipline, teamwork and endurance---the things much needed in their late career and life---are encouraged and cultivated in sports.To sum up, college athletics plays a vital role in a student's life, and it deserves further attention from colleges and universities.41.“有人没事干,有事没人干”(大学生就业问题的理性分析)”Some people cannot find suitable jobs, while others cannot suit them.“ / ”Some jobs are not available, while others are always vacant.“ The fact that the there is incompatibility/dissonance between demand and supply of the talents reminds us of the importance of rational thinking.One needs to consider practical reality in the pursuance of goals.Merely acting on one's desires, while ignoring the facts at hand, cannot lead to success.Every year approximately four million students graduate from universities and begin seeking their long-cherished jobs.Many of them fail to find suitable work due to the flawed inpidual assessment, In order to create a realistic target for one's future, one must make rational decisions and prepare accordingly.A student who aims to be a surgeon, for example, must take care to acquire opportunities to do clinical practice and gain sufficient knowledge.In other words, students should not only keep their ambitions in mind, but also painstakingly strive towards them.On the other hand we should realize great success is in fact an accumulation of small achievements rather than only a brilliant start, and remember that one can build a pyramid only if one is willing to work with small stones.People would be wise to abandon rash inclinations and instead try in earnest.Because we should always keep this notion in mind: One can come to extraordinary achievements on an ordinary position which is rationally fit for him.42.大一新生家长陪读引发的思考
It was reported that many parents moved to where their sons and daughters received college education, rented an apartment and lived with their ”precious babies“ taking care of all their housework including cooking, laundry, cleaning and other stuff, which/and all of the above gave rise to national attention on college students' dependence on their parents and ignorance of everyday living.Parents are so selfless that they're willing to do anything for their children, but most of them misunderstand the nature of education whose importance does not only lie in the textbook knowledge but also the practical abilities for them to live in the world.Parents' generous action provided the students with conveniences;meanwhile, they actually deprived the students of their opportunity to learn how to take care of themselves and other people.The lack of practical skills makes some straight-A students' aura dim.We can hardly imagine a future capable leader or a future excellent engineer would be fed by their silver-haired parents.So it is the parents' responsibility to give their children love and care as well as a chance to live on their own.43.大学生养猪
Recently, news astonished the public that several graduates should devote themselves to pig-raising instead of holding their jobs in their majors.Job hunting is known as one of the most serious problems in today's world.Each year thousands of graduates flood the job market, waving their college diplomas and certificates, expecting great vacancies in their majors.However, the fact is that few of them can get jobs related to their majors or to their favor.Therefore, it's high time that we change our traditional concept about job selection.According to social circumstances, it is not that easy for everyone to get a job he is satisfied with.In addition, the significance for university graduates of getting employed means much more than just money making and obtaining experience.Beyond these factors, their outlook should be broadened and the attitudes switched from dream chasing to reality respecting.All in all, there are many ways to achieve their ambitions and fulfill their expectations.To be successful in modem society, no matter what kind the job is, the promising one concerning their majors, or the ordinary one like pig-raising, one should be diligent and hard-working, which is a must and necessity.44.关于网络红人对青年人的影响(芙蓉姐姐、天仙妹妹、公交妹妹、山东二哥)Recently, the alarm about the phenomenon of the hot figures on the Net has caused wide argument, and understandably so.With the popularity of the Internet and with so many people dreaming of being the focus of the public, there are some people taking advantage of the net to enter the show business.It just took several months from some photos to the coverage on foreign TV programs.Sister Furong only needs to stage a few poses and be well-known around the world.Those who favor it hold the belief that people can use the new arising propaganda vehicle to promote themselves.They insist that everyone has a dream;therefore, they can make the dreams come true no matter what the cost is.There exist some understandable reasons, nevertheless, we have to face that the negative effects that the phenomenon of hot figures on the Net has posed a big problem to people, especially to the youngsters.They will abandon their belief that as common people, high academic degree is the only permit to the upper class.Consequently, they don't study hard to make contribution to our nation but addict themselves to the question how to make themselves hot figures before the public eye.It will lead them to the wrong value to society.In the information era, the young are exposed to the all kinds of lure.Parents and society should take effective measures to keep their access to the internet rationally available and don not abuse the internet which can benefit us a lot.45.大学生如何获得知识与能力的双赢(由北大光华学院毕业生当陪聊有感而发)Enough as it seems, the time of your college life is, rather than always in your hands, under the control of the brutality of natural laws, within which reads ”elapsed time never turns back".When it comes to the goal of your college life, the limitation of four years confronts you with a seemingly tough question: knowledge or ability?
Some are making an issue out of this-----one camp maintains the historical feat and the contemporary contribution made by knowledge, while the other side comes up with loads of cases where failure is tasted by some straight-A graduate, leading to a debate doomed to have no winner.Being two indispensable factors of a qualified college graduate, knowledge and ability are in nature unnecessarily contradictive, so it's totally irrational to pursue for one on the expense of the other.What we need here is not an in-circle debate but an approach to a win-win situation where the acquisitions of knowledge and ability are kept in harmony.The development of human society has never been so fast, requiring not only intelligent brains but also skillful hands, sound bodies and other stuff, say, such as interpersonal relation skills.We college students should develop ourselves in an all-round way.46.你心目中的宜居城市是什么样子的?
Living-friendly city
As the industries and business develop, we live a more comfortable life.We have shifted our focus on life from the basic necessity to the choice of cities, and what is the living-friendly city like?
Currently, more and more people become increasingly aware of the importance of health, therefore, first we want to live in a city of pollution-free and noise-free.The cleanness and freshness must be available in the living-friendly city.Besides, the sun shines warmly on us and we can hear the singing of the bird that makes us relaxed and happy.Secondly, living in the living-friendly city, we must enjoy all the conveniences provided by civilization: big stores, restaurants, theaters, galleries and so on.The city should have such a large population that you can make friends with people of different ages and backgrounds.It must be a metropolitan.Life isn't dull but colorful.Last but not the least, people in the living-friendly city must be affectionate, cooperative, and well-educated.There must be a great variety of jobs available, and hence more opportunities to succeed in life.47.博客(Blog)作为一种新的交流方式其好与坏
As a new means of communication, blog plays an increasingly important role in freshmen's life.Some freshmen have got down to writing blogs.On the one hand, blog provides opportunities for people to communicate or exchange their moods, feelings or opinions.It is a place where visitors can talk or express themselves freely.Moreover, some people become well-known because of their articles in blogs that are popular with the widespread readers, and, I think, that may belong to the reasons why blog is more and more trendy today.On the other hand, however, blogs also spare room for those who intend to let off their anger or dissatisfaction about the society or the phenomenon mentioned in the written articles.Those who are not relatively approving the ideas forwarded by the writers may objectively analyze the situations, but some of them will speak out a few dirty/vulgar words, which will definitely break the civilized and ordered atmosphere of the cyber life.As far as I am concerned, we ought to make the most of blogs properly to get much knowledge and make ourselves well-informed.48.关于如何面对日益加重的城市交通问题
With the rapid increase of population and the development of economy, the traffic problems in urban areas are becoming increasingly serious.As the result, streets packed with ever-flowing vehicles, traffic jams becomes a common thing for everyone.It goes with saying that heavy traffic causes much inconvenience, waste of time and inefficiency.It is really a challenge to find a fine solution to solve it.But I think the following suggestions may be advisable.First, the authorities should put more investment in building more roads to accelerate the flow of traffic and therefore relieve the heavy traffic.Second, the old narrow streets should be broadened at the expense of pulling down some old buildings.Last but not least, underground passageways and tubes should be built to minimize the burden of common roads.People should be aware of the urgency of traffic problems in that it may hinder the further development of economy in the decades to come.49.赡养老人
Who and How to take care of the seniors? China’s aging population is increasing.We are faced with the problem of who and how to take care of the seniors.(敬老院:home for the seniors;独生子女政策:one-child policy;独生子女:only child)
One-child policy has been adapted as an essential policy in China from 1980s.When the total population is increasing and death rate is declining, the problem of aged population becomes more and more urgent for us to deal with.Who and how to take care of the seniors has aroused widely concern in public.According to Chinese tradition, children should take care of their aged parents and young people should spend their free time in chatting with their parents and helping to do housework and so on.Since there is only one child in one family, a newly-married couple should take care of four seniors when they are married.Obviously such heavy pressure is challenging the young generation.As far as I’m concerned, the suggestions are as follows: In the first place, young people should confront with the challenge bravely and take historical responsibility of taking care of the seniors.In the second place, the government should take effective measures to take care of seniors.For example, the government could sponser more and more homes for seniors in order to decrease young people’s pressurethe last but not the least, social organizations should be encouraged to take care of the aged.Only by doing so can we have a harmonious society.50.大学生当村官
College Graduates Works as Village Officials It has to be noticed that nowadays more and more college graduates choose working as village officials after graduation from college.Needless to say, this issue has aroused great concern among the general public.From my perspective, it is a good idea that most of college students prefer to work as village officials in the rural areas.As everyone knows, with a series of agricultural policy being carried out, there have been rapid development in China’s agriculture.Therefore, qualified people are hungrily needed in the fast developing land.College graduates are persons of extraordinary ability and they are knowledgeable about advanced science and technology.So they can apply what they had learned in class to the practice in the countryside.For example, they can teach the villagers how to feed the pigs effectively and plant the fruits and vegetables scientifically, which can help the villagers lead a happy life in a short time.At the same time, college graduates can gain experience and training from their positions as village officials.For example, they may learn how to live in the poor living condition and correctly handle the contradictions among the people in the complicated countryside.They may know much more about Chinese farmers, and have a better platforme to display their talents and abilities.Therefore, students should be encouraged to enter the market proudly and openly.
