Recently the students in our class have discussed the following topic: which is more important for college graduates to choose jobs, being interested in it or being good at it?

Some agree that the love of job is very important because interest is the best teacher. People are often willing to do what they like doing. If you are not good at it in the beginning, you can work hard and gradually improve your skills to make you good at it. Others hold their view that if you are good at it, you have more chances to achieve success very soon. While you work, you can do all you can to gain the interest in it little by little.

From my point of view, I think we should make full use of our strengths to change them each other regardless of the fact that you like it or you are good at it.

13.在2008年北京奥运会上，中国著名运动员刘翔因腿伤退出比赛，引起人们的广泛争议，下面是新浪网站的一项调查：运动员受伤后，应该坚持还是应该退出？

　请你结合上表，写一篇英语短文，谈谈自己的看法。要求：100词左右。

In the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games Chinese athlete Liu Xiang dropped out of the race due to his foot injury， which led to a heated discussion among people across the country.

答案：

In the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games Chinese athlete Liu Xiang dropped out of the race due to his foot injury， which led to a heated discussion among people across the country.

According to a survey conducted by Sina Website，about 64% of the people think an athlete should quit the race when injured since health is much more important than a gold medal；While nearly 36% of the netizen believe that an injured athlete should hold on to the end instead of giving up halfway. They regard the sport field as a battlefield in which every athlete should fight for the honor of his or her country in spite of any difficulty.

In my opinion，it's a right choice for Liu Xiang to choose to quit the race. For one thing，nothing is more important than health and sports doesn't mean sacrificing one's health for a gold medal；for another，after Liu Xiang recovers fully，he still has many chances to realize his dream

生词：减轻学生负担 – reduce learning load

答案：

Dear Dick,

　How nice to hear from you again. You want to know what is going on in schools in China. In short, things have begun to improve since schools were called on to reduce learning load. I don't know about others, but I used to have to work even at weekends doing endless homework and attending classes as well. Now I have more free time. I can follow my own interests such as reading books, visiting museums, and taking computer lessons. In the evenings I can watch news on TV or read newspapers. What’s more, I can go to bed earlier. As far as I know, everyone is happy about this new arrangement of things.

　　　　　　　　　　　　Best wishes,

　　　　　　　　　　　　Li Hua

参考词汇：周末包机　 weekend charter flights　　

货轮　 　cargo ships　　　　　　

冲绳岛　 island of Okinawa　　

答案：

I’m very glad to receive your letter, and I feel it a great honor to introduce briefly to you something about the direct flights between the Chinese mainland and Taiwan.

Six decades ago, Taiwan put a ban on the regular links between the two sides. But Last July saw

the starting of weekend charter flights. Now both sides are even enjoying daily direct flights, which numbers up to monthly 60 at least. When the direct flights began in the first week, twelve air companies from the two sides applied for 101 flights, providing services between four Taiwan and 12 mainland cities.

　 Originally, the passenger planes were required to fly south by way of Hong Kong, and the cargo ships had to sail around the Japanese island of Okinawa north of Taiwan. Now the flights and cargo ships from Taipei and other main cities can directly reach more than 10 cities of the mainland, like Shanghai, which has taken much less time and greatly reduced the shipping costs.

　 The direct flights, I think, have opened a new era (时代) of direct air and shipping services, and brought new vigor (活力) to economic and trade ties between the two sides.

　 That’s what I can tell you at present Maybe I’ll have some more information for you not long time later.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 Yours,

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 Li Ming

Dear Mr. Smith,

I am very excited to learn that we are going to start a magazine together.

答案：

Dear Mr. Smith,

　　 I am very excited to learn that you are going to start a magazine. It is indeed a wonderful idea and I hope for its success.

　　 I would like the magazine to have three columns: Sports News, Teachers'Advice and Students' Voice. I am a sports fan. From Sports News we can learn about what is going on in the sports field. In Teachers' Advice, our teachers can give us such help as we may not be able to get in the classroom. Students' Voice will allow us to freely express our thoughts and feelings about our lives and studies.

　 　I hope that this magazine will be successful, and I am looking forward to reading it as soon as possible.

Yours faithfully,

Li Hua
