Dear Editor ,

I’m a midde school student . I hear that a power station will be built near Mt . Yunxia . a place of interest . We know the power station will provide us with plenty of power and as a result , the local economy will develop rapidly , but many citizens and I are against the plan . To build the power station ,many people will have to move away and a great number of trees will have to be cut down . What’s worse, once the scenery of Mt . Yunxia is destroyed , it can never be restored . therefore , this plan is not good for protecting the enviroment . We suggest the city government should think over this plan .

In the above cartoons, a young woman happily eats bananas and throws the peels on the street, unaware of the fact that such actions not only pollute the environment but also bring dangers to others. A disabled man struggles to properly pick up the peels she has left behind and put them in the dustbin.　

In my opinion, despite the girl's beauty, it is the disabled man who is truly beautiful.　 Being well dressed is of great importance in keeping a good appearance. However, we should always keep this in mind: True beauty comes from one's actions . The old man is displaying a more beautiful virtue even though he is disabled, compared with the young girl.

　　 While most of us enjoy pretty appearances, I think it is more important to have a clean and beautiful soul. Only such souls can create a beautiful society.

In recent years the government has spent a large sum of money in improving housing but the shortage of housing is one of the most serious problems facing many big cities in China. We’ve discussed heatedly the topic “How to Solve the Housing Problem in Big Cities.”

Some of us suggest building more high-rise apartments while others believe to develop underground housing areas. I am in favor of the former opinion. For one thing, it is cheaper to build above ground than below. For another, living underground for a long time will do harm to people's health. Above all, people are unwilling to live underground with artificial lighting and they prefer to live above ground to enjoy the sunshine. 　Although there may be some other ways to solve the housing shortage problem, I believe to build more high-rise apartments is one of the promising solutions to the housing problem.

At present , many high school students are addicted to buying lottery tickets and they seem to have good reasons . However , I’d like to talk about my views on the phenomenon .

In my opinion , its disadvantages are far more than its disadvantages , despite one of their reasons that they can do something useful for society in this way . High school students can’t support themselves financially but depend on their parents for the moment . Thus , in order to collect money with which to buy lottery tickets , they may try every possible means , even commit crimes .

In addition , if they put their minds on lottery tickets , their lessons will be affected more or less . And in the long run , lottery ticket purchasing will contribute to their wrong understanding that there must be a shortcut to every destination , which will surely do great harm to them the whole life .

Therefore , I think it is necessary for them to keep away from lottery stations and concentrate on their studies for now .

Yours ,

Li Hua
