【解析】B ______curtain，此处为特指，用定冠词；____nationwide craze，此处为抽象名词具体化，要用不定冠词。
3.There has been ____rising demand for grain as ____industrial material in spite of the nation's good harvests.
A./;an B.a;an C.the;an D.a;/
【解析】B：Demand作为要求和请求时为可数名词；作为需要需求时为不可数名词，在惯用法中既可以说much demand,也可用 great/rising等形容词修饰，此时前面用不定冠词。Material与此类似。

【解析】D 第一个空是泛指，用不定冠词；第二个空是特指，用定冠词。
二、名词类

12.Some students remember much knowledge but can't recognize ways to use it in new____.
A. conditions B. cases C. backgrounds D .situations
【解析】D Condition与in 连用时有两种义项：
1）?U?the state of general health, fitness, or readiness for use健康状况；适用情况，如：
This car is in very good condition.
2) ?P?state of affairs; circumstances情况；状况。如：
firemen having to operate in very difficult conditions. 须在极困难情况下工作的消防队员。
Under existing conditions在现有的情况下
Case与in 搭配时，主要有两个义项：1）an example of a particular situation, problem etc事例，实例，如：
In some cases, it is necessary to operate.在有些情况下，动手术是必要的。
It was a case of stupidity, not dishonesty.那是愚蠢，而不是不诚实。
2）（通常用单数）circumstances or special conditions relating to a person or thing.与某人或某事物有关的环境或特殊情况。：I cannot make an exception in your case.我不能为你破例。
C项意思为背景；D项situations=set of circumstances of state of affairs , esp at a certain time意思是状况，处境，局面形势。如：The company is in a poor financial situation. eg is losing money. 请体会：
1） Your question brings a case about how to learn English well.
2）In your situation, I would say that "reading a lot" is one of the best ways to learn a foreign language under the condition that you are not living in an English speaking country.
13. I found her sitting in the corner, reading _____ newspaper, with _____ in her eyes.
A. a, tear B. a piece of, tears
C. a, tears D. a piece of, tear
【解析】C。newspaper和 tear均为可数名词，它们不仅可以连用不定冠词、可以用复数，而且还可以连用数词。Her eyes filled with tears. 她热泪盈眶。
She dried her tears with a handkerchief. 她用手帕擦干了眼泪。
The newspapers were full of lies. 报纸上一片谎言。
A newspaper is a publication. 报纸是一种出版物。
顺便说一句，若不是将 newspaper 当作是供阅读或传递信息的一种东西，而只是把它当成一种"纸"来看待，也可用作不可数名词，如：
Wrap it in (a sheet of) newspaper. 把它用张报纸包起来。
14. Her father works as a ______ in a hotel and her mother a ______ in a private company.
A. cooker, typewriter B. cook, typist C. cooker, typist D. cook, typewriter
【解析】正确答案为B：cook=厨师，cooker=炊具；typist=打字员，typewriter=打字机。即此题。
15. "Why couldn't they meet us at five o'clock?" "Because they were delayed by ________."
A. heavy traffic B. heavy traffics C. crowded trafficD. crowded traffics
【解析】A 对于此题，首先要明确traffic为不可数名词，没有复数形式，故排除B和D。另外，汉语习惯说"交通拥挤"，而英语习惯上却不能用crowded 来修饰 traffic，要表示汉语的"交通拥挤"，英语通常说heavy traffic，即选A。如下面一题也是选A：
16.She is not a competent driver and can't cope with driving in _______.
A. heavy traffic B. heavy traffics C. crowded trafficD. crowded traffics
17. In fact, _______ one cause that leads to the problem.
A. cattle is B. cattle are C. cattles are D. the cattles are
【解析】B,但此题容易误选A，想当然地认为cattle是单数，并且空格有表单数的one，自然谓语动词用is。cattle(牲畜，牛)为集合名词，尽管它不带复数词尾-s，却永远表示复数意义，若用作主语，谓语要用复数。又如：
For this many cattle were killed. 为此宰了不少牲畜。
The prisoners were herded like cattle. 囚犯像牲口一样被赶到一起。
类似地，police(警察)，people(人)，police(警察)，poultry(家禽)等也具有同样用法，即只有单数形式，但却表示复数意义；用作主语时谓语通常也用复数；不与 a(n) 连用，但可与the连用(表示总括意义和特指)。如：
The poultry have been fed. 家禽已经喂过饲料了。
In Britain police do not usually carry guns. 在英国警察通常不带枪。
It annoys me when people forget to say "thank you". 遇到有人忘记道谢的时候，我就不痛快。
18. By all _______, you must try every _______ to help him.
A. mean, mean B. means, means C. means, mean D. mean, means
【解析】此题正确答案为B，但容易误选C，认为第一空前有all修饰，故用means，而第二空前有every修饰，故用mean。其实，means是一个单复数同形的名词，并且永远带有尾-s。换句话说，在表示"方式"、"方法"时，不存在mean这一形式(mean主要用作动词，表示"意思是"；也可用作名词，表示"中间"、"中庸")，by all means为习语，意为"一定"、"尽一切办法"。顺便说一句，means用作主语时，其谓语的数需根据句意来确定。比较：
All possible means have been tried. 所有可能的办法都已经试过了。
Every possible means has been tried. 每种可能的办法都已经试过了。
若句意不能明确地表明主语的单复数，其谓语则用单数或复数均可。如：
Is [Are] there any other means of getting more money? 还有其他什么办法可弄到更多钱吗?
19. Jim is ______ person, and everyone is willing to be ______ with him.
A. so kind a, friends B. so a kind, friends C. so kind a, friend D. so a kind, friend
【解析】此题最佳答案为A，但容易误选C或D。认为 friend要用单数。so kind a person相当于such a kind person，注意两者中冠词的位置不同。be friends with是习语，意为"与……友好"、"跟……做朋友"，与之同义的类似地还有make friends with。值得说明的是，这类短语中的名词总是用复数，即使句子主语为单数也是如此。如：
He is friends with me. 他与我是朋友。
He has made friends with everyone here. 他与这儿的每个人交上了朋友。
20. We already have ______ pencils, but we need two ______ pens.
A. dozen of, dozen B. dozens of, dozens C. dozens of, dozen D. dozens of, dozen of
【解析】此题最佳答案为C。但容易误选 B。关于dozen的复数是否加词尾-s的问题比较复杂，大致原则是：(1) 当它与具体数字连用时，既不加复数词尾-s，也不后接介词of。尽管有的词书也有 two dozen of 这样的用例，但这已属过时用法，在考试中应避免，如1992年全国高考有一道单项选择题就认为two dozen of为错误选项：
Shortly after the accident, _____ police were sent to the spot to keep order.
A. dozens of B. dozens C. dozen of D. dozen
(2) 当它不与具体数字连用，而是表示不确定的泛指数时，则不仅要加复数词尾-s，而且要后接介词 of，此时可将dozens of(许多，几十)视为习语。如：
I've been there dozens of times. 我去过那儿几十次。
She's got dozens of boy-friends. 她的男朋友很多。
下面一例中的dozens加了复数词尾-s也属为似情况：
Pack them in dozens. 按打装袋吧。
(3) 当与 a few, several 等数目不很具体的词连用时，加不加复数词尾-s均可，但需注意：不加复数词尾-s时，其后的介词of可以省略；加词尾-s时，其后介词 of不能省略。如：
several dozen (of) pencils=several dozens of pencils几打铅笔
注：英语较少使用many dozen的说法，要表示类似意思可用dozens of。
(4) 当它后面的名词受 the, these, those 等特指限定词修饰时，或其后的接的是us, them这样的人称代词时，则此时必须用介词 of。如：
two dozen of these eggs 两打这种鸡蛋
three dozen of them 它们中的3打
注：score, hundred, thousand, million等也具有以上类似用法。
21. She raised her finger to her lips as _____ for silence.
A. an idea B. a mark C. a sign D. a word
【解析】应选C。但容易误选B。sign与mark的区别是：sign 的意思是"迹象"、"征兆"gesture or movement made with the hand, head, etc, used to give information, a command, etc(用手或头等做出示意动作以传递信息或命令等)，mark 的意思是 written or printed symbol or figure, line etc made as signor an indication of sth(书写与印刷的符号或图、线等记号)。根据此二词的语义区别以及常识可知答案为C。类似地，下面两题的答案也是C：
(1) Those black clouds are a sure _____ that it's going to rain.
A. thing B. mark C. sign D. one
(2) Just as a famous Chinese saying goes, a timely heavy snow is a ______ of good harvest next year.
A. mark B. track C. sign D. appearance
但是，下面一题却不能选sign，也不能选mark，而选symbol(象征)：
The lion is considered the king of the forest as it is a(n) _____ of courage and power.
A. example B. sign C. mark D. symbol
顺便说一句，在近几年的高考中像这类结合词义区别以及语境和生活常识进行考查的试题经常出现，同学们需引起注意。
22. "May I take your order now?" "We'd like three black _______ and two green _______."
A. coffee, cups of teas B. coffees, teas C. cups of coffee, tea D. cup of coffees, teas
【解析】选B，但容易误选C，认为coffee和tea均为不可数名词，不能后加复数词尾-s，从而排除选项A、B、D。有的同学认为 coffee 和tea是物质名词，不可数，不能用 three coffees, two teas 这样的表达。其实，coffee既可用作不可数名词，表示"咖啡"这种物质，也可用作可数名词，表示"一杯咖啡"，即在口语中 three coffees 就等于 three cups of coffee。同样，"三杯茶"既可说成 three cups of tea，也可说成 three teas；"三杯啤酒"既可说成 three glasses of beer，也可说成 three beers。
23. _____ is a good form of exercise for both young and old.
A. Walk B. Walking C. The walk D. To walk
【解析】最佳答案为B。但容易误选A或D。
(1) 首先，选项D不如选项B佳，因为，不定式通常表示特定的动作，而动名词才表示习惯性的动作。
(2) 尽管walk用作名词时可以表示"散步"，但它是可数名词，指的是一次一次的具体的散步，而不表示抽象意义或泛指意义的"散步"，要表示此义，要用动名词 walking。比较：
How about going for a walk? 出去散散步如何?
Walking does good to your health. 散步对你的健康有益。
类似地，dance 和 dancing 以及 swim 和 swimming 的区别也是一样：
(1) 名词的 dance表示"跳舞"，是可数名词，指的是一次一次的具体的跳舞，而不表示抽象意义或泛指意义的"跳舞"，要表示后者的意思，要用动名词转化来的名词 dancing。比较：
Let's have a dance. 我们跳曲舞吧。
He is interested in dancing. 他对跳舞感兴趣。
(2) 名词的 swim表示"游泳"，是可数名词，指的是一次一次的具体的游泳，而不表示抽象意义或泛指意义的"游泳"，要表示后者的意思，要用动名词转化来的名词 swimming。比较：
She had a swim every day. 她每天游一会儿泳。
She loves swimming. 她喜欢游泳。
24. Ten years had passed. I found she had _______.
A. a few white hairs B. a little white hair C. some white hair D. more fifty hair
【解析】选A。hair 可用作可数或不可数名词，用作可数名词时，指一根一根的毛发或头发，如说 There's a hair in my soup (我的汤里有根头发)；用作不可数名词时，则是整体地指一个人的头发。
25.-Hi, this way, please.
-OK.I sometimes have no sense of ______ when I arrive at the crossroad.
A. position B. direction C. situation D. condition
【解析】选B。需根据句意来分析。have no sense of direction 意为"没有方向感"。
26. Shelly had prepared carefully for her English examination so that she could be sure of passing it on her first ________.
A. intention B. attempt C. purpose D. desire
【解析】选B。需根据句意来分析。attempt 在此表示"尝试"。
27. I didn't have to work all weekend - I did it by _______.
A. chance B. choice C. accident D. myself
【解析】选B，由于上文说 didn't have to work，所以下文相应的语境应是 did it by choice。类似地，下面一题应选D，也是因为choice与下文的have to do it 相呼应：
28. "Did you get _____ to the party?" "Yes, I replied to it this morning."
A. an answer B. an invitation C. a question D. a letter
【解析】选 B。注意其后的 to the party 和 replied to it。
29. I paid him ￡50 for the painting, but its true ______ must be at least ￡500.
A. price B. money C. value D. importance
【解析】 选C。value 指"价值"。
30. His letter was so confusing that I could hardly make any ______ of it.
A. explanation B. meaning C. sense D. guess
【解析】选C。make sense of 意为"明白"、"理解"。比较：make sense 意为"有意义"、"意思清楚"、"有道理"。
31. You've just missed your ______, and you will have to wait for the next round.
A. chance B. turn C. time D. part
【解析】选B。miss one's turn 电为"错过机会"，注意下文的 …have to wait for the next round 所表示的语境。
32. -Li Lin is very bright and studies hard as well.
-It's no ______ he always gets the first place in any examination.
A. question B. doubt C. problem D. wonder
【解析】选D。it's no wonder (+that从句)的意思是"难怪"，也可说成 No wonder (+that从句)。
33. -How can I use this washing machine?
-Well, just refer to the _______.
A. explanations B. expressions C. introductions D. directions
【解析】选D。directions 的意思是"使用说明"，空格前的 refer to 意为"查看"、"参考"。
34. Jim was late for two classes this morning. He said that he forgot both of the ______.
A. rooms number B. room number C. room's numbers D. room numbers
【解析】选D。room 为无生命名词，不用 room's 这样的所有格形式，在此可直接用名词作定语。类似地，
35. -Hello, I'd like to speak to Henry.
-Oh, which _______? There are two ______ in our office.
A. Henrys, Henrys B. Henries, Henries C. Henry, Henrys D. Henrys, Henries
【解析】 选C。在通常情况下，专有名词具有"独一无二"性，因此它通常没有复数形式，即不可数。但是，专有名词的独一无二性有时是相对的，随着范围的扩大，这种独一无二性便会受到破坏。如在一个星期(week)内，只有一个星期六(Saturday), 一个星期日(Sunday)等，但是在一个月中甚至一年中，便有多个星期六，多个星期日了。所以我们有时可以说：We have spent many happy Sundays there. 我们在那儿度过了许多个愉快的星期日。另外一点值得注意的是，与一般的名词单数变复数不同，以"辅音字母+y"结尾的专有名词，其直接加词尾-s，而不将y改为i。
36. Electricity, like other forms of ______, has greatly increased in price in recent years.
A. pressure B. force C. strength D. energy
【解析】选D。从常识来考虑，electricity 属于 energy，结合全句的语境，只有D最合适。同样地，
37. In order to learn the _______ of the family business, Bill took a job as messenger boy in one of the offices.
A. ins and outs B. dos and don'ts C. heads and tails D. t's and i's
【解析】选A。ins and outs 意为"细节"，dos and don'ts 意为"注意事项"，heads or tails 为掷钱币打赌时用语，意为"你赌正面还是赌反面"，p's and q's主要用于 mind one's p's and q's，意为"留意自己的言行"。结合句意，选A最合适。
38. -I've got an "A" in the examination.
-That's a good ______. You will surely win a second.
A. result B. news C. start D. idea
【解析】选C。从语法上看，news 不可选，因为它不可数；从意义上看，D不可选，因为选D意思不通；比较A和C，选C最合适，因为 start与下文的 a second 相吻合。
三、代词类
39.---Go and get Lily to write for the wall newspaper.
----Why _______?couldn't I do better?
A. I B. her C. she D. me
【解析】B.，口语中往往用宾格来代替主格，
例如-----Tom, go and get me some water.
-----Why me , Lucy is free now.
【解析】：人称代词的宾格在句子中作宾语或介词宾语，但在口语中也能作主语补语，第一人称在省略句中，还可以作主语，例如：
I saw her with them, at least, I thought it was her. 我看到她和他们在一起，至少我认为是她。（her做宾 语，them做介词宾语，her作主语补语）
A. -- Who broke the vase? --谁打碎了花瓶？
B. -- Me. --我。（me作主语补语= It's me.）
在上面两例句中，her和me分别作主语补语。现代英语中多用宾格，在正式文体中这里应为she和I。
40.Mom promised to buy me a nice gift for my bithday,_____beyond my imagination.
which B.that C.something D.the one
【解析】C。逗号后面的部分不是句子，不能用AB两项。此处是泛指，不能用the one。本句子的意思是：某样我想象不到的礼物。
41.----Which of the electronic dictionaries do you like most?
-----______.They are both expensive and of little use.
A None B.Either C.Neither D.Any
【解析】A：本题的干扰点在于短语both …and…，而both此处并非指两本电子词典，而是这些词典的的属性。题眼是do you like most，说明所比较的事物为三个或三个以上，从既昂贵又无用来看，说话人三个以上事物中哪个也不喜欢，故选A。
42.Thank you for giving up your coffee break to help.I know you always need_____after three classes.
A that B. one C. it D. this
【解析】B。表示泛指.用one来替代可数名词的单数。Eg. Do you have a pen?
-----Yes .I have a red one. 而it用来替代同一事物。one来替代同一类事物。
42.To save class time, our teacher has ______students do half of the exercises in class and complete the other half for homework.
A us B.we C.our D.ours
【解析】A.空格上要填的词作students的同位语，两者都是has的宾语，要用宾格。
四、形容词类
43.Internet is a great tool if we know how to use it ,but it shouldn't be a replacement for ______life.
A oringinal B.real C.natural D.actual
【解析】B。Real 的意思是existing in fact , not imagined or supposed .real life是现实生活的意思。
44.I'm very pleased with the results of my blood test, for all tested items show _____ reactions.
A negative B. good C. positive D. correct
【解析】A：本题极易将人引入习惯思维的陷阱。既然主语心情为pleased，应该体检项目的结果为阴性，negative除表否定，消极之意外，还有表阴性之意。而如果仅看positive 的字面含义"积极的"、"肯定的"而忽略整个语境的意义从而选C项的话， 实际就成为检查结果呈阳性，证明主语有病，前后就自相矛盾了。
45.The school is trying its best to make more accommodation _______for increasing studens.
A available B.approachable C.affordable D.accessible
【解析】A Approachable意思是可以接近的；可以进入的。Affordable的意思是出得起金钱或时间的；accessible的意思是有权利使用或能够使用的。Available的意思是：(of objects)that can be obtained. e.g The book you ordered is not available.
46. This kind of foods which are already prepared for cooking are_____ in supermarket.
A ready B. probable C. available D approachable
【解析】C：A项易排除；probable 意为极有可能的； available=that can be gotten, seen or used.可得到使用等；approachable=able to be reached 可接近的。本句意为：已准备好可烹饪的食品在超市上可以买得到。
47..----How is she getting along with her workmates?
-----Quite well. She is very_____ to other people's feelings.
A Active B.simple C.sensible D.sensitive
【解析】D Sensible：reasonable and practical; having or showing good sense 明智的；有见识的
sensitive ：（1）quick to show or feel the effect of something对……敏感;感觉灵敏的 ，如sensitive to cold/pain(2)showing delicate feelings or sympathetic understanding 感情或判断细腻的；同情理解的。本句意为：她与工友相处和谐，因为她体谅别人的感受。
48. A healthy life is frequently thought to be___ with the open countryside and homegrown food.
A associated B. bound C. related D. tied
【解析】A be associated with be bound up with be related to be tied up with 均表示和-----有联系的意思。
49.-----Did you remember to pay the telephone bill?
------The telephone bill? ______.
A. That isn't due yet. B. Are you sure C. My telephone is out of order D. Please remember the amount
【解析】A：本题考查due一词多义，作为形容词：1）作表语，常用due to somebody应给予，应支付；应得到常用be due for something.2）作表语，意思为"应立即支付；到期"。本句的意思是：我的电话费还不到交的时候呢！
50..______medical examination will help us find our health problems as early as possible.
A Regular B. Normal C. Common D. Ordinary
【解析】A Regular 意思是coming, happening, or dong again and again at even intervals（定期的有规律的）
51.This lecture is by no means the most boring. I've attended_____.
A better B.worse C.the best D.the worst
【解析】B ：根据句意：这个演讲绝不是最乏味的，我还看过比此更糟糕的。后句应为；I've attended a worse one than it.
五、副词类
52.David arrived at the meeting____at ten o'clock,as it was scheduled,not a minute early or late.
A flexibly B.temporarily C.approximately D.punctually
【解析】D本题考查副词。根据not a minute early or late.可以推出是：按时。准时。Flexibly：灵活的 B.temporarily：暂时地；临时的 C.approximately;大约地
53.----Did you enjoy yourself at the party?
-----Sorry to say I didn't. It was ____a meeting than a party.
A. more of B. rather like C. less of D. more or less
【解析】：more of脱胎于not much of:算不上……。例如He isn't much of a speaker.他不是一个很健谈的人。本举的意思是：与其说这是个聚会，还不如说这是个会议。rather like与more无法呼应。
54.As I will be away for at least a year. I'd appreciate hearing from you telling me _____how everyone is getting along.
A. By and by B. more or less C. now and then D. at the same time
【解析】：by and by意为before long即不久以后；more or less意为或多或少表数量 now and then意为from time to time时而，表频度，此处修饰telling 发生的频率，故选C； at the same time意为in the meanwhile同时；然而
55. Mr. Lin's comments were very difficult to follow because they were ______related to the topic under discussion.
A. specifically B. precisely C.loosely D.typically
【解析】specifically意为专门地；明确地 ； B. precisely精确地 C.loosely，不精确地，不严密地。 D.typically典型地，具有代表性地。本句的意思是：
56.I no longer have the support of the committee. _____，I have decided to resign.
A. However B. Otherwise C. Therefore D. Besides
【解析】：前后两句间为顺承关系，后者为前者的结果，故用therefore。A项表示转折；B项表示"否则"；D项表示补充说明，意思是"再说："。
57.It's hard for him playing against me.I've got nothing to play for,but for him,he needs to win so______.

58.When I go out in the evening I use the bike ____the car if I can.
A. rather than B. regardless of C. in spite of D. other than
【解析】本题考查固定短语，根据句子含义，我使用自行车，而不是小汽车。rather than means instead of (而不是)

Peter was an employee in a company. He liked listening to music as he worked. One day he was typing a paper. Of course he listened to music usual. After finishing the paper, he handed it to his boss. The boss was very angry after he read it. He asked Peter to come to his office and shouted at him, “ Peter! Can you explain why you have made so many wrongly written characters in the papers recently?”

A few days ago, Miss Wang was going home by bike. While she was riding in the street, she saw a man with a knife in his hand and his face covered with a piece of cloth running towards her. The man had taken her handbag out of the basket of her bike and run away before she could do anything. There was no one she could turn to for help at that time, for it was very late at night.
Luckily, she had her mobile phone at hand. Immediately she took it out and phoned the police. She told them what the man was like and in which direction he had run. The police came very quickly and caught the robber. Miss Wang got her handbag back and felt very grateful for what the police had done for her.

Monday September 1 Sunny
Today is the first day of the new school term. I was asked to help our new foreign teacher, Park, a handsome American, to get to know about the school life. In the morning, I showed Park around, guiding him to the classroom building, library and other places, which impressed him a lot. As noon, I invited him to eat at our school canteen. We talked over lunch about his interests and the use of Chinese chopsticks. Knowing that he is cravy about playing basketball. I suggested he play with my classmates. During the sports time in the afternoon, Park’s wonderful skills made him an eye-catching player on the court. I guess he must have had a good time. So did I .Today is my first time that I have communicated with a foreigner, which made me more confident in English learning.Therefore, I think everyone can learn English well if they think they can.

The vivid picture shows that a poor boy was crushed down by a heavy school bag. Both school and parents hold the same belief that they will never let children lose at the starting line, so they give heavy learning load to children to learn many other things after school. Living a busy and tiring life now, few students enjoy learning very much. As a result, too many students suffer from poor health under heavy pressure, they are neither physically nor mentally healthy now.
In my opinion, we must prepare for competition, but above all, we should have a happy life and sound body for the future.
观察左面的一幅漫画，用英语写一篇100―120左右题为“Birds
with Weak Wings”的短文。
要求：1、简要描述漫画内容； 2、说明图示所反映的社会现状；
3、发表自己的观点和看法。 4、参考词汇：农民工（off-farm workers）
There stands a tall tree in which there is a beautiful house called the city’s primary school. Under it, five little birds, on whose backs are written five characters which mean “children of off-farm workers”, are sitting on the ground, with their eyes looking at the house well above. How they want to fly into the house, but their wings are too weak.
As we know, a lot of off-farm workers come to cities to earn their living. They try their best to serve the city, but they can’t afford the expensive schooling for their children.
I hope there will be enough schools for the off-farm workers’ children; this way we can enjoy a better life together.
It is the old man’s birthday today. Now he is sitting on a sofa alone. Maybe his wife has been dead. On the right side is a big birthday cake sent by his son. And there are also some presents given by his daughter on the left. Yet the old man doesn’t feel happy. Instead, he looks very sad because he is lonely.
Our life is getting better and better than before. Some people think that old people will be satisfied as long as they have enough to eat and drink. I think they are quite wrong. Old people easily get lonely because they have no work to do. So we should spend time together with them and take care of them in every possible way.

Quality-oriented Education is being carried out in our country now. Our school calls on us to develop varieties of hobbies and interests.
A recent survey shows that 53% of the students like sports, so doing sports is the most popular activity in our school. The secong popular activity for students is surfing the Internet and 36% of the students have interest in it. Only a few students, about 8 percent of them, take reading as a hobby. And even fewer are fond of playing musical instruments.
In my point of view, our school should have more sports facilities built to satify the need of the students. Guidance shoud be given to students on surfing the Internet and ways must be found to arouse students’ interests in reading and music.

Dear editor．
Recently a survey has been done to find out how middle school students spend their pocket money．
In this survey, both junior students and senior students spend most their money on books, sacks and playing games, still some money goes to clothes, banks, sports, and so on. The survey shows that about 44％ of seniors prefer books to sacks （37%）and playing games （31%）.On the other hand, only 32％ of juniors will spend their pocket money buying books, while over a half buy sacks and 44％ spend on playing games. Both seniors and juniors would not waste too much money in clothes or put it in banks.
I think too much sacks will not only makes us put on weight but also does herm to our health. In addition. if we play games without limit, we'll lose much precious time, which results in low grades. Furthermore, the money is hard-earned. I hope we students value our money as well as our time.

From the graph we can see that there were two peaks in car accidents in 2001. One was in March with the number of accidents 35. The other was in August with the number of car accidents 45, which was the highest point on the distribution line. From August, the number of car accidents decreased till it reached the lowest point of the year in December. The two seasons which had most of the year’s rain is the most important reason for car accidents. Be careful, when you drive a car on rainy days.

I think it’s bad for us high school students to play computer games. Some of us students can not control ourselves. If we get addicted to them, we will spend too much of our precious time away from our study. Besides, it will do harm to our health because we may sit long hours in front of the computer. As we all know, some computer games may be very violent which can be bad for the growth of young people and our personal development. Students can’t always tell whether something is bad or not. Computer games are unrealistic, which may give us students some wrong ideas about our real life.

Should Internet Slang Be Prohhibited?
At present, Internet Slang, such as “ GG”, “MM”, “Xia Mi”, has become popular among teenagers.
There are different opinions on Internet Slang. Some students think Internet Slang is vivid, fashionable and full of homor and intelligence. Besides, it makes chatting on the Internet quicker and more interesting.
However, some other students think Internet Slang lacks depth of thought and is too simple. Besides, it is hard to understand and not accepted by most people. The words sometimes might make people confused, even resulting in misunderstanding.
Every coin has two sides. In my opinion, living in the Information Age, if we don’t know the Internet Slang, we seem to fall behind. It will be OK as long as these terms are used correctly in proper situations.

It is a long and good tradition in China to respect teachers and emphasize education. Every year after the college entrance exams, students and their parents try to express their gratification to teachers by saying thanks in person, calling the teachers, sending short messages or buying proper presents. In recent years, some students and parents hold graduation-dinner party and invite the teachers as well as their friends and relatives. To our regret, many people try every means to keep up with Joneses.
Some people think graduation-dinner is a good way to express thanks as long as the family can afford it. These people think gradation dinner can provide a better atmosphere for parents, students and teachers to communicate further.
However, some hold that graduation-dinner is just a waste of money. It is bad to society to keep up with Joneses. Besides, Students from poor families will feel great pressure and shy to express their thanks to teachers in the original ways.
Personally, I think it is unnecessary and it is a better way to thank teachers by working hard in colleges and making achievements in the future.

Nowdays a lot of schools keep their students in school all day long.Students have different opinions about it. Some of the students think they enjoy less freedom and have little chance to get in touch with society.They are not able to fully develop their interests and hobbies. Therefore, they have lst interest in their studies.
Some others think school is the best place to get knowledge so they should put their heart into their lessons. Some students lack the ability to control themselves.Once out of school, they may lose control of themselves and do something that will influence/affect their studies.
Personally I think, it is necessary to keep students at school.But at the same time schools should organize various activities so that students can enjoy their school life.(I don’t agree to keep students at school all day. Schools should offer students more free time to develop their personal interests.

（锦州09）With the college entrance examination approaching day by day, more and more senior three students are moving out from their dorms and living in a rented apartment nearby their schools.
Toward this issue, there are different points of view from students, parents and schools.
Most students think although school dorms bring them fun and friendship, the blackout rule to guarantee students sleeping hours doesn’t leave them enough time to finish homework. Worse still, the noise in the dorm not only influences their studies but also ruins their rest.
To many parents, their investment is worthwhile if it works better for their children’s studies to rent an apartment nearby school. Besides, they can take care of their children’s daily meals and laundry, so their children can eat better and have a comfortable life.

Boys and girls:
We high school students do have some growing pains, but we can rid of them correctly and wisely. First, some of us are upset about their body styles and looks. It’s unnecessary and it’s not important at all. We needn’t care about it. It is one’s inner beauty that matters. Second, we sometimes seem to be misunderstood by our teachers, parents and classmates. Facing this, we can find a proper time to have a heart―to―heart talk with them, trying to remove the misunderstanding. Some of us have fewer friends. I think being open―minded and friendly will do you good. Third, we may fall behind others, which makes us stressed. Actually we can encourage ourselves to work efficiently, full of determination. Last, some of us don’t have much pocket money, so they feel unhappy. Isn’t it strange? So long as we have some, that’s enough. And we can learn to spend money!
That’s all. Thank you.

The 2008 Beijing Olympic Games ended successfully. Recently a heated discussion on the topic how to grow up along with Olympic Champions was held in our class.
We all agree that the Olympic Champions have much in common. They go all out to be excellent--- swifter, higher, and stronger. They show respect for everyone, regardless of competitors, judges or the media. Besides, faced with one failure after another, they never give up.
How can we become a champion in real life and make a difference? We all expressed our ideas from different angles. Firstly, we must set a clear goal, which will inspire us to pursue what we want, no matter what difficulties we may come across. Secondly, concentration and a good state of mind are decisive factors in success.
I think we must learn to deal with stress, build up self-confidence and try to focus on our goals all the time. In addition, we should be sincere to others, treasure friendship and do our bits for making contributions to society as well as to our country.

2008年的全球金融危机使得中国求职市场愈加激烈， 就业形势愈加严峻。假如你是某大学的应届毕业生， 针对目前全国大学生面临就业的严峻形势，你班同学对一些专家和同学们进行了一次调查，请你根据以上提示及以下调查的结果， 结合自己的看法，写一篇150字左右的短文。
1. 一些资深评论家认为：金融危机给中国带来了一系列的负面影响， 大量企业举步维艰， 中国的经济受到极大地威胁。
2. 调查表明： 70% 的同学希望及早就业，早日摆脱贫穷，减轻家庭负担;
3. 专家建议大学生到社区、县里、农村去工作，以寻找更多的发展机遇；
4. 20%的同学选择继续深造；
5. 10%的同学则在寻找机会自己创业；
你的看法：（请联系自己拟定内容， 列举两至三点）
One possible version
In 2008, a world-wide financial crisis broke out, making it hard for the graduates to seek jobs. And some qualified critics have the opinions that the crisis has a series of negative impacts on China. For example, numerous enterprises have to struggle to survive and China’s economy is under the bad threat of it.
Considering the gravity of employment, my classmates made a survey among the graduates, which reveals that 70% of them prefer to find jobs after graduation to get away from poverty, and release their families’ heavy burden, and 20% of them hope to get further study in the future, while 10% want to have opportunaties to create their business. So the experts’ proposal is that they should go to the communties, the counties or the countrysides so as to find more job chances.
In my opinion, it’s better for the graduates to go to the rural areas, where more intellectual persons are needed, so jobs can be found easier than that in the cities. As for youself, you can experience different lifestyles and realize your value in society.

Ban Smoking in public places?
Smoking bans can be seen in public places in many countries. Our class had a heated discussion on banning smoking in public places. Opinions fall into two.
Some students agree that smoking is dangerous, Not only does smoking harm smokers themselves but also harm the people around them. Bans in public places would also urge smokers to smoke less or give it up.
However, Others hold an opposite view. They believe that it’s legal to smoke and smokers should have the freedom and right to smoke in any place they like. Besides, bans on smoking in public places would drive many bars, pubs or clubs out of business. What’s worse, many people will be out of job because of this.

Dear Li Hua,
How are you? With this letter I’d like to introduce my hometown―Jiangsu Province to you .Situated in the east of China, Jiangsu is one of the most developed provinces of our country. It is a province with a large population of 70,000,000 but not much farmland for people to live on, and it lacks natural resources with an area of more than 100,000 square kilometres .
With the development of economy and growth of its population, more and more good farmland has been used to build houses and factories. As a result, farmland is decreasing year by year.
Fortunately people are realizing the importance of protecting farmland and the government has taken measures to stop the illegal use of farmland.
In my opinion, it’s our duty to protect our farmland as well as our obligation to benefit the younger generations.
Looking forward to your reply.
Best wishes.

Dear Editor,
I’m writing to tell you about the discussion we recently had about how to deal with bad behaviors in public, like smoking and spitting. This is, to remind or to fine.
The majority of us are for reminders. They think that those who have done something wrong may not have noticed the warning signs. And reminders will surely help them to realize their mistakes and correct them willingly.
However, the others think these people should be fined because, generally speaking, people will not learn to obey rules unless they are taught a lesson. What’s more, those who go against the rules are usually frequent wrong-doers. Reminders won’t work on them any longer. Meanwhile they suggest these people should be fined properly.

Dear friends,
Jun 26th is the International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking every year and it aims to keep people from drugs. As we all know, drugs are harmful to our health. Taking drugs increases people’s heart rate and blood pressure. Drug takers may suffer from heart attacks.
It is easy for drug takers to become addicted to drugs, but it is hard for them to break this addiction. Drugs cost people much money. If they don’t have enough money to buy drugs, they will suffer great pain. In that case they may commit a crime. When you see drug takers, you should call the police. Keep away from people who take drugs and don’t keep in touch with them.
Dear friends, let’s start fighting against drugs now and say yes to life and no to drugs.

The idea of sustainable development has been accepted by the world. How to keep sustainable development is a big problem facing our planet.
The present situation is worrying. First，natural resources are becoming less than before. Second，as some people are not aware of the importance of the environmental protection，the problems with it remain extremely serious to some degree. The gap between the rich and the poor has the tendency to become wider and wider.
To our great joy，many countries have taken action. On one hand，they have made relevant laws and regulations and put large amounts of money to the environmental protection. On the other hand，popularized education(普及教育) as well as international cooperation is being carried out.
As for myself，I should take the responsibility to
devote myself to sustainable development，if not, our future and the lives of our children and our
grandchildren will be in danger.

优秀英语短文赏析
1.On Open Policy
The open policy means that our country is open to investment, trade and technical and economic cooperation with other countries on the basis of equality and mutual benefit. The purpose of open policy is to acquire advanced technology, management skills to serve our socialist construction so as to promote the realization of the four modernizations.
We must stick to the open policy. Because economic relations between states today have become increasingly close, and no country can possibly advance behind closed doors. Only in this way can we gradually close the gap between our country and the developed countries.
Through the implementation of policy, we can learn advanced technology and managerial expertise from abroad; make full use of the foreign capitals to set up great enterprises; absorb useful and healthy ideas and new knowledge of the modern civilization; and broaden our views and raise our level of competence.
2. The place of Science and Technology in Modern Life.
Human life can not continue without science and technology. For many years, human society has developed with the advance of science and technology while the development of science and technology has in turn brought the process to mankind. So the life we are living now is more civilized than that of our fore fathers.
The development of science and technology have brought about many changes in people's life. for example, the invention of television and space rocket have opened a new era for mankind. Through the use of TV people can hear the sound and learn the events happening thousands of miles away. Owing to the invention of spaceship and rocket, the dream of man's landing on the moon has now come true.
Science and technology also play an important role in our socialist construction. We may say, our socialist construction is just like a skyscraper, while science and technology are its base. Without the base, the skyscraper can't be built. Therefore, we should try our best to contribute to the development of science and technology so as to provide a more solid base to build our country.
3. Importance of Education
In modern times, when science and technology are making great progress, the education of the work force is of primary importance. Moreover, many of the success in advanced countries have demonstrated that a nation 's prosperity mainly depends on the quality of its labour force, namely those who have been well educated.
In a developing country
such as
4. Air Pollution
Air pollution is one of the major problems of the modern world. A great deal of energy is needed to run the factories of modern industrial nations. Automobile, trains, planes and busses need energy, too. Nearly all of this energy is produced by burning fuels. The burning produces wastes, some of which remain in the air, causing air pollution.
Scientists are finding ways to stop air pollution especially in big industrial areas and densely-populated cities. They are studying new ways of generating electricity that may be less damaging to the environment. In the meantime, many power plants are being modernized to give off less polluted material. Also, engineers try to design and locate new power plants to do minimum damage to the environment.
However, it may be that we still have a long way to go before we have a "clean" world. Nearly all of the countries are trying hard to prevent and control air pollution. There indeed seems to be no end to tasks that environmentalists will be required to do. People will continually find new ways to control pollution.
5. Environmental Protection
Today the quality of our natural environment has become an important issue. The world population is rising so quickly that the world has become too crowded. We are using up our natural resources and at the same time polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals. If we continue to do this, life on earth cannot survive.
Concerned people have made some progress in environmental protection. Governments of many countries have established laws to protect the air, forests and sea resources and to stop environmental pollution.
Still more measures should be taken to solve environmental problems. People should be further educated to recognize the importance of the problems, to use modern methods of birth control, to conserve(保存） our natural resources and recycle（再循环） our products. We are sure that we can have a better and cleaner place in the future.
6. Automobiles
Automobiles, as a product of modern civilization, have been playing a vital part in the daily activities of human society. Industry needs automobiles for farming as well as transportation. Every day, automobiles drive people to and from work. On weekends automobiles take families for joyful outings. And during holiday seasons, automobiles fill the highways everywhere, even in remote areas. It could be said that the wheels of automobiles move society forward.
But automobiles have also given rise to a series of problems. For example, cities are overcrowded with automobiles. They create a lot of noise and traffic accidents which disable（伤残） or kill many people each year. Worst of all perhaps is the air pollution caused by the exhaust gases produced by automobiles. Some of the gases are highly toxic(有毒的） and a serious health hazard.
7. Computer
The computer is widely used in all fields of society. Today, wherever you go, you will find computers being used. For example, computers are used in universities, large corporations, and small offices, etc. It has even entered the homes of ordinary people. As it is able to store and process a large amount of information, the computer bring about great convenience and high efficiency to people of all walks of life.
Computers can help people in different ways. For example, computer help scientists in analyzing data and doing complex calculation. For another example, computers are made use of by engineers in designing a plane, or a spaceship. Besides, computers may also play a great role in helping children with their lesson. Whatever you are doing, you many find computer a useful aid.
However, the computer must be designed and instructed by man. What is more, it is true that computers can make decisions, but they need detailed instructions and programs prepared by humans to operate. Therefore, the computer can never replace the human brain.
8. Travelling
It is exciting to visit different places. As you travel, you will see beautiful sceneries typical of the region. Besides, you can meet and make friends with people of different colors and races. Finally, you can get to know the customs and living habits of the local people. Today people are so fond of travelling that tourism has become one of the fasters growing industries in most countries.
The main reason why people travel is, perhaps, for pleasure. For example, having worked hard throughout the weekdays, people will find a widened trip to the nearby mountains or beaches a real relaxation. For another example, spending an annual holiday travelling abroad is an especially satisfying experience for those who do not have much of an opportunity to be away from their homelands. When people return from their travel, they will generally feel fresh and energetic, ready to work harder.
Travelling is also one of the best means for learning. You may have read or heard about something but you can never get an accurate picture of it until you see it for yourself. Seeing is believing. Furthermore, if you area careful observer, you can learn much during your travel about the geography, biology, and history of the places you visit. No matter how well educated you are, there is always a lot for you to learn through travelling. The knowledge acquired from travel, as you will have found in your life, is no less valuable than that from any influential reference book.
9. The World Population Explosion
The human race has experienced a consistent increase in population since the beginning of its history. Famine and disease have done little to offset(抵消）this steady increase. Too many people are added annually to the population of the world. So both the causes of population increase and the results of having more people are worth careful study.
Culture evolution is the major factor responsible for population increase. Early in human development, people invented tools to hunt animals. Later they built shelters to protect themselves. Step by step, they made life easier. As a result, fewer died from natural forces, such as harsh climate and disease.
In the past, when population grew, there was unexplored territory to inhabit. But now, almost all the habitable land has been explored.
The world's population may reach 8.7 billion in 2033. It is clear that world population is a serious issue that needs careful attention. Human beings are unique to solve problems through cultural evolution.(发展） Facing the world population explosion in the near future. we must carry out the birth control program in order to save the mankind and save the world.
10. Opening-door Policy is
the Only Way to Make
Modern Chinese history
leads us to the conclusion that socialism, not capitalism is best for
As far as our country's economic construction is concerned, taking advantage of the part of capitalism that is useful to us means we need to develop foreign trade, introduce advanced technology and better management, and make use of foreign funds. It also means we can absorb some of the economic theories, and make use of those economic policies, methods and measures that comply with(遵循） the law of mass production and a commodity economy.
By opening our windows
wider to the outside world, people can learn more about other peoples and learn
to make sensible judgments. absorbing the better part of the cultures of other
people to enrich ourselves is the best way to safeguard our socialist culture.
So taking advantage of capitalism and stepping up economic reforms is the only
way to make
11. Choosing an Occupation
Every one faces the problem of choosing an occupation after graduation from college or university, which plays a vital role in his life. An appropriate occupation makes a man work with zest(热情） and vigor, as well as contribute to his country.
To make a wise choice, two important things should be taken into consideration. One is the interest, the other, the demands of people and society. Only if the two aspects are connected, can a man show his talent and ability to the best advantage. If the two conflict, the former should be under the latter, for the people's interests are more important than the individual's.
In regard to my choice in the future, I am fond of learning foreign languages; what is more, with the implementation of the Open-Door Policy, exchange between home and abroad in economy and culture has been growing significantly, thus I'm determined to be a qualified interpreter.
12. Studying abroad
In recent years, studying abroad has been popular. Tens of thousands of Chinese teenagers have gone to foreign countries for further study. As is shown on the chart, the number of the teenagers studying abroad is increasing steadily. At the end of 2002, about 40% of the students studying abroad were middle school students. By the year 2005, the proportion can reach up to more than 80%.
It is believed that there are many advantages in attending schools abroad. First, students can learn foreign languages more quickly under favorable conditions. Second, it can broaden their experience and help them learn much more advanced knowledge of science and technology from foreign countries.
However, there are some disadvantages. Most of the students studying abroad are too young to live alone without any living experience. Besides, being far away from their home country, they may feel lonely and homesick. Also, the costs are much higher there than in the native country.
As far as I’m concerned, I would like to go further study abroad after graduation from college so that I can make a greater contribution to our country when I come back.
13. Modernization of Family Life
With the rapid development of the society, family life is becoming modernized. Years ago, people considered owing radios, sewing machines, watches and bicycles as being modernized. but in recent years, almost all families have TV sets, refrigerators and washing machines. It is very common to see people ride motorcycles or even drive private cars and more and more families have telephones, computers and air-conditioners.
The modernization of family life brings us convenience and comfort. One may enjoy TV or radio programs, communicate with his friends through telephone or work with his computer while his washing machine, refrigerator and air-conditioners are running. and by car or motorcycle one can quickly reach wherever he wants to go.
In spite of this, these modern facilities also bring us disadvantages. For example, radiation from TV sets and computers is harmful to our health; improper driving of cars and motorcycles becomes the major cause of traffic accidents. The quietness of a family is often disturbed by a falsedialing or unwelcome phone call. but it is believed that these disadvantages will be disposed of with the improvement of modernization and our life will be more healthy and more comfortable.
14. Energy Resources
Three energy resources are being used up rapidly, With the building of four modernization, new industrial and science projects are springing up like bamboo shoots after rain. They are all big consumers of energy resources. Besides there has been considerable waste in the utilization of these resources.
To avoid an energy crisis in the future, the government must take certain measures. First, it should let people know the importance of saving energy. Second, efforts should be made to develop new energy resources, such as solar energy, geothermal(地热） energy and so on. We have reason to be optimistic in this respect.
15. Competition
Competition makes
people original and creative. It very necessary to compete if human society
wants to advance. (Even animals compete for survival.) Without it, we would
become lazy and nobody would rake any responsibility. When three monks live
together, there will be no drinking water. This Chinese proverb vividly
describes why
Competition can stimulate people to try their best to do anything. For example, in 100-meter race, each sportsman runs as quickly as possible, trying to win the champion. The same things happen in our society and in our daily life. If a company wants to surpass others, it must compete with them. It must raise its efficiency. All the companies doing this will no doubt benefit the whole society and the whole human race.
Being a student, I must compete with other students in our studies. I must study hard in all the fields so that I can be a useful man when I enter the society after graduation.
16.Students’ Part-time jobs
There are many advantages for a student to have a part time job. For instance, it helps him to realize that no success comes from nothing. It enables him to be independent and builds up his self-confidence. Therefore, part-time jobs can get the students out of the ivory tower and give them the opportunity to know more of himself and of his personal value in society.
As everything has two sides, the disadvantages can’t be ignored. Part-time jobs cut into students’ study time; some even become so preoccupied with making money that they ca ‘t focus their attention on studying. In the end, the students may fall behind or fail in their studies.
In my opinion, students can choose to take up a job according to their own situation. The most important thing is for him to keep a good balance, put his study on top of the list and assign an adequate amount of time to it.
17.Wealth and Happiness
Everybody wants to get wealth. In today’s material world, making money or becoming wealthy symbolizes a person’s success and capability. Many people just make every effort, pay any price to attain greater wealth. With money, they can but nice, large apartments in nice neighborhood; with money, they can own stately luxury cars. Wealth seems with money, they can own stately luxury cars. Wealth seems to bring all happiness in life.
In my opinion, people cannot do anything without money, but money is not everything. What money will bring you depends on your personal belief and goal in life. If you are kind enough to help others, especially the poor, money is a good thing to you. With it, you can do much more for the benefit of people and your country, and it will and to your own happiness. If you want money just for your own needs, you’ll never be satisfied or happy. In a word, you should have money spent for more people, only then can money be the source of your happiness.
18.Ideals
Everyone has his ideals. A businessman wishes to make greater profit; a farmer expects bumper harvests; a student tries to learn more and better. And everyone strives, with more or less effort, to realize his ideal.
One should be sensible about whether his ideal is well founded or not. If it is, one has to plan and work hard for its realization. Effort, skill and persistence are all necessary. And very often, one has to get help from others, including advice and support in one form or another.
My ideal is to become a doctor, It is said that the field of medicine is a well-paid profession, but I take it as a lofty profession entrusted with saving people’s lives. To realize my ideal I have concentrated on laboratory work to develop the analytical skills necessary to become a qualified doctor. I am sure I will realize my ideal if I persevere in this pursuit.
19.Popular Sports in
Sports are flourishing in china now. More and more people are willing to take part in sports of different kinds, such as table-tennis, football, volleyball, and so on. Every year there are many matches played on the city, provincial or national level. Sports are no longer limited to a few professional players.
Early in the morning people may be seen doing exercise. Martial arts (like Chinese boxing or swordplay) which formerly were cultivated for self-defense, now have become a form of physical exercise and are practiced in parks, streets, gardens, or on campuses. In addition young and old people are also often seen running in order to build up their bodies.
20.Is Failure a Bad Thing?
Failure is what often happens. It is everywhere in our life. Students may fail in exams, scientists may fail in their research work, and athletes may fail in competitions.
Although failure happens to everyone, attitudes towards failure are various. Some people don’t think their failure is a very important thing at all. So they pay no attention to it. As a result, they will have the same failure a period later. Some people think themselves are fools and lose their hearts in everything after they get a failure. Consequently, they spend their time and energy on useless things and they may really be fools as they have thought.
Other people are quite different from the two kinds of people mentioned above. Instead of being distressed and lost, they draw a lesson from every failure and become more experienced. After hard work, they will be successful in the end. It is said that failure is the mother of success. Success will be gained after times of failures so ling as we are good at drawing lesson from our failures.
In my opinion, failure is not a bad thing, the really bad thing is taking a failure as failure or even lose our heart after failure.
21.Health and Life
As the saying goes, you don’t know what happiness is until you lose it， you don’t know what health is until you are ill. “Health is of vital importance to life” sounds like a cliche to everyone, but it is absolutely true.
The negligence of the delicate balance of your body and soul, the harmful habits such as smoking, excessive drinking and burning mid-night oil will catch up with you someday. How many big plans are interrupted by bad health! Even a normal life is unimaginable without the guarantee of health.
How to keep fit is an eternal topic of diversity and controversy. Regardless of all the different suggestions poured from all kinds of sources, one should do at least two things for him/herself. First, hold an active and optimistic attitude toward life and maintain a mental well-being. Second, live a regular life and keep a balanced diet. Anyway, a healthy life is within reach when you begin to adjust your mind and body.
22.Dialect TV plays
Last week a discussion was held in our class about whether dialects should be on TV.
45% of the students held the idea
that a television play is more interesting and enjoyable if a dialect is used.
However, the other 55% of us didn’t agree with them. They thought that as people in a developing country become more closely related, there should be a common language for communication. If dialects are used on TV, some audiences will not understand the programmes. They will not be able to communicate. Besides, if dialects are used on TV, people who watch it will probably misunderstand what performers intend to express. Some of them may lose interest in watching it.
23.Recycle textbooks
As we know, when senior students graduate from school, most of their textbooks, which are still in good condition are thrown away. What a great waste it is! Thus, here comes a heated debate on / people have different opinions about whether we should recycle textbooks.
Some people are the opponents because they think there is a danger for students when using the recycling textbooks with many bacteria on them, which are bad for children’s health. Furthermore, notes on the pages made by the students may disturb the next users. As for Printing Industry, Publishing Industry and other related ones, it is big loss in making profits.
On
the other hand, however, many more people think recycling textbooks is a good
suggestion, which I quite agree to. For one thing, recycling textbooks can save
a lot of natural resources and reduce waste. Besides, a cut in the expenses
means less stress for the parents, especially for those relatively less rich
ones. And for students, it is also a useful way to develop a good habit of
reading and taking care of books, to cultivate the sense of social
responsibility of valuing common property and promote the awareness of
treasuring natural resources. As a matter of fact, recycling textbooks is very
popular with some foreign countries such as
Therefore, recycling textbooks is not only necessary but also helpful.
24.Harmonious society
What a good boy! Child as he is, he set up a good example to us. Everyone has the responsibility to keep our environment clean. If everyone does as Xiao Ming did, we can imagine how harmonious the society will be. Compared with the whole society, a tiny person perhaps won’t have an opportunity to create a great cause. But if we paid more attention to some tiny things around us, we would make a contribution to the development of the Harmonious Society.
25.Happiness
Happiness means different things to different people. / Different people value happiness differently. So a survey has been conducted by China Daily lately among students to find out what happiness means to them.
29% of the students believe that money can make them happy. They think they can buy and do whatever they like with the money they have. However, 34% of them insist that health is the most important, without which they cannot enjoy themselves. There are another 13% of the students expecting the wealth from their parents, thus they don’t have to work while the rest 24% think they should put knowledge at the first place.
But I don’t think money and wealth are the most important. There are many things that you can’t do with money. Healthy body but less knowledge cannot make a great man. So I quite agree to the opinion that mastering more knowledge is the happiest thing in people’s lives. With knowledge we can do lots of useful things to make people live better and happier. Of course we’ll be much clever and much more thoughtful with knowledge.
26.Jobs
I’m a senior 3 student. My name is Li Ming. Recently I have made a survey among 50 boys and 50 girls. The result of the survey is as follows: What the boys like to do is to become businessmen and scientists. Only a few boys want to be teachers. It is interesting that the number of boys and girls who want to become doctors is equal. As for lawyers, more boys expect to have this job. However, there are still students who are not clear about their future.
27.Learning strategy
Thank you for writing to me. I’m sorry that you are worried about your study. My suggestions are as follows:
Firstly, you’d better keep in a good mood to overcome test anxiety. It’s important to stay calm when facing difficulties. It will help you relax and concentrate on what you are learning. Don’t step away from a challenge, but go for it.
Secondly, it is necessary to make a study scheme and set yourself/have a clear goal. Making a good study plan makes it possible for you to learn more and faster in limited time, and therefore prepares you for the coming exams.
Last but not least, you should create your learning strategy so that you can learn more efficiently. Try to find the most appropriate ways to improve your study skills, then you’ll manage your learning effectively.
Cheer up and have confidence in your own abilities, and I’m sure you’ll succeed.
28.Study at university
Next year, I will go to study at university, but I don’t know how to adapt myself to university life. I hear many freshmen are at a loss what to do when they are at university. They can’t take care of themselves in their everyday life, feeling lonely and homesick. Clothes, money or mobile phones are sometimes gone. And because of different climates and food, they often feel sick. Some even rent rooms outside the campus. Could you tell me how to deal with these problems so that I will be able to suit the university life in the future?
29.Power station
I’m a middle school student. I hear that a
power station will be built near
30.Saving Our City
As is known to all, it is very important to deal with the rubbish in cities. Rubbish must be treated properly. Otherwise it may pollute the environment and do harm to our health/ cause a lot of problems. It may pollute the air and water. When people breathe (in) the polluted air and drink the polluted water, they may get ill.
Our city has begun to pay attention to the problem. As far as I know, some rubbish is sorted and sent to different factories. Rubbish, such as old newspapers and glass, is recycled. Some harmful rubbish is sent to a certain place and buried. Waste air is cleaned before it goes into the air. Waste water is treated before (it is) poured into rivers.
At the same time, the government has passed laws to prevent people from throwing rubbish everywhere to protect the environment. We should do our best to take good care of the environment.
