Once upon a time there was a farmer who worked hard in the fields every day. One day, while he was ploughing the field, he heard a bumping sound. He saw a rabbit lying by the trump. He picked it up and found that it was a fat rabbit. He thought to himself, “Since it is so easy to get a rabbit like that, why should I work so hard all day long?” He threw his hoe away and lay by the tree every day, dreaming for more rabbit to come. When he finally realized his foolishness and returned to his field, he found that all his crops were dead. This story tells us that we should not wait for unexpected gains by chance and luck. Or, we should not hope to get rewards without hard work.

There was once a farmer who worked very hard every day. One day when he was hoeing in the sunshine, he suddenly heard a low sound “Peng!”. He turned and hurried to the tree. He found a rabbit dying. He took hold of the rabbit and was excited. “What a rabbit! I’ll have it for dinner!” Then he had a good idea, “Why can’t I wait for more rabbits here? It’s cool under the tree.” So he dropped off his hoe and waited there. But day after day, there were no more rabbits coming. What was worse, all his crops were dead.
The story tells us that if you want to get something, you must work hard for it. Remember, “No pains, no gains!”

My Opinion on Cheating in Examinations
It is known to us all that some students cheat in examinations at school.
As students, we often take examinations at school, but sometimes we have too many examinations which are too difficult for us. On the other hand, some of us are lazy and don’t work hard at their lessons. So when taking examinations, they sometimes cheat in order to get better results to please their parents and teachers.
In my opinion, it is wrong to cheat in examinations because it breaks the rules of schools, we students should be honest and try to get good results by studying hard instead of cheating in examinations. What’s more, we should improve our study methods and get well prepared for examinations.

Great Changes
The activity of being a good student and good citizen has been held since the beginning of this term in our school. Everybody has taken an active part in it.
In the past, we didn’t have the habit of keeping our classroom tidy and even threw waste anywhere. We weren’t polite enough to our teachers and sometimes forgot to greet them. While doing shopping or waiting for a bus, some of us jumped the queue instead of obeying the rules.
But now everyone is willing to do cleaning and sort the waste before throwing it into dustbins. Everybody has great respect for our teachers and helps them with something. In pubic places, we try to wait in line and offer seats to the old on the bus.
What great changes have taken place! We do hope every student can keep it up.
