In the black and white drawing above, a youth gravely contemplates a narrow winding pathheading into a forest. Perhaps he thinks that his own future may be much like this path; full ofbends and curves, thorns and traps. The road to success is never anything but uneven anddifficult.
In fact, one could even say that the more successful one's life is, the more problems andhardships one must have overcome. The ability to work through difficult situations andunfortunate events only makes one stronger and more capable. Given that the road tohappiness always contains obstacles and setbacks, we should be well prepared for thehardships that life inevitably brings, and abandon the idea that life is smooth or easy. Wemust accept the fact that failures are unavoidable, whether they are failures in examinations,in finding a job, or carrying out a task. People who accept that their life will not always be simpleor calm are better able to handle problems when they arise. Those who are upset by each andevery small setback — and there are many people with such attitudes— do not have muchpotential. Failure is mother to success as it can strengthen one's will. Those who can drawlessons from failure are destined for success.
Nowadays a large number of universitiesencourage and organize students to take part in social practice activities. During theholidays, students in mounting numbers choose to be the volunteers, take part-time jobs, ortake part in other practical activities alike. It is obvious that social practice is playing anincreasingly essential role in China’s college education.
Undoubtedly, college students have benefited a lot from social practice. Above all, they areprovided with more opportunities to contact the real world outside campus. What is more, insocial practice activities, students can ap*** their theoretical knowledge to the solution to thepractical problems. So their practical skills are improved greatly. Besides, social practice helpsstrengthen students’ sense of social responsibility.
Considering the above-mentioned, it is necessary for college students to participate insocial practice. However, social practice may bring some problems. For example, somestudents spend too much time in taking part-time jobs so as to ignore their study. Hence, weshould try to balance the relationship between social practice and study.
Recently，every morning when I wake up，I findmy air-conditioner automatically turned off.I didn’t understand why at first，but soon Ilearned that there was a great shortage of electricity sup*** in our city–my air-conditionerturned off because of a power failure midnight.
With the rapidly developing industry and the ever-increasing population，demand forelectricity sup*** is soaring. Besides，summers in recent years are much hotter than before，so most working places and households are air-conditioned，which consumes additionalelectricity.
Face with such a hard nut，we have to find ways to crack it.Above all，in western areasChina，there is surplus of electricity sup***.So，cities that are thirsty for electricity mayask for remote help.Then，when we have electricity，we should remember to save it.Setyour air-conditioners at 27C and you won’t feel less comfortable than when they are at 26C.Infact，some factories already shift their working hours to avoid the peak time of electricityconsuming. My parents don’t work from Monday to Friday as before–they work form Saturdayto Wednesday and have the following two days off instead.This is also a way out，isn’t it?

A Letter to a Publishing House on Food Safety
June 15th, 2006
Dear Sir or Madam,
Thank you for taking time to read this letter. As the problem of food safety has been becoming worse and worse nowadays, I am obliged to write to you.
Several days ago, one of my classmates came back from supermarket with a large bag of food. Because of having found a new style of tinned?ish in the food store, she was very glad. Several other roommates were invited to enjoy the “mouth?atering chicken”. Unfortunately, after finishing the food, all of my three friends had stomachaches and vomited, their faces having become paler and paler. Due to sensitivity to that kind of tinned food, I escaped that suffer. At that time, my mind went blank. I dialed the emergency number with my trembling hand, therefore they were quickly sent to hospital. The doctor said they were lucky to be out of danger because they did not eat too much of that rotten fish and were hospitalized on time.
This is the matter that happened around me which made me realize the seriousness of the food safety problem. I sincerely hope that the whole society could attach much importance to this issue.
Thanks!

it can be seen from the graph that there are more and more students attending the postgraduate entrance examination year by year. compared with before, the rate of the student taking part in the postgraduate entrance examination becomes higher and higher. in the meanwhile, the admittance rate is also rising.
what are the reasons for this and the possible consequences? on the one hand, there are three reasons for this. first, the job market becomes more and more competitive. as a result, most people want to find or exchange for a better job by obtaining a high degree. second, most college students want to pursue their study after their graduation from the undergraduate. third, with the development the science and technology, what has been learned at college is not enough to meet the need of the society. on the other hand, there are some possible consequences of this. for one thing, most people will be force to pay more attention to the examination than to the improvement of their true ability. for another, it will have a negative effect not only on the individual but also on the society in the long run.
last friday afternoon, when i was on my way home, a traffic accident took place at the crossing of shanghai road.
a pupil was knocked down by a black car when he was walking across the street. his legs were badly hurt. sever(several) minutes later an ambulance came, and the driver of the black car sent the pupil to the hospital immediately.
in my eyes, this accident was due to that the pupil broke the traffic rules. that is to say, the pupil walked across the street when the traffic lights were red. as soon as the driver saw the pupil, he stopped the car, however, it was too late. in my opinion, it was necessary to advocate people to confirm to the traffic rules. if the pupil hadnt broken the traffic rules, the accident might not have happened.

Worldwide environmental deterioration (恶化) is alarming. The earth is plagued with population explosion，energy crisis，lack of food，housing problem and environmental pollution. During the process of industrialization，human beings are pur crazily the benefits from the economic growth.

Create a Green Campus “Green campus” is, to some extent, a relatively new concept to us. It not only means creating a green environment on campus, but also refers to that the students should be educated and have an environmental sense in their mind. Of course, this concept is very important for the students because it sets goals toward the future of the world. The young generation is under the burden of severe environmental problems and the hopes of environmental improvement are lying in them. Therefore, campus plays a more important role in educating the young generation. The creation of “Green campus” will greatly stimulate students to take part in various environmental protection activities; most importantly, students will be educated to take environmental problems seriously as their own mission and responsibility. Under such stimulations, students may grasp the chance to learn every necessary course for the harmonious and sustainable development of the world. To bring “green campus” to its full play, effective measures should be taken. First, based on its education function, campus should bring the theory of “sustainable development” into classrooms, set environmental management rules and conduct environmental education activities. Second, campus also needs to strengthen its ties with the society, tries to communicate with parents and experts so as to ensure that students could have a better participation in the practical activities. Only by the co-efforts of the whole society could “green campus” work smoothly and bring benefit to people's well-beings.
There are many precious qualities to be a good man, and for a qualified college student, I think he should possess such qualities as honesty, ambition, and a sense of responsibility.
To begin with, honesty is the best policy. It is what a young man could rely on to establish his career and reputation. A liar might take advantage of others' trust once, but it could seldom happen again. Therefore, a qualified college student should be an honest man at least. Secondly, ambition is necessary for a young man who is in his prime to seek his dreams. As is often said, cease to struggle and you cease to live. So be ambitious and never regret. Furthermore, a qualified college student should be a man with a sense of responsibility and a man who dares to face the consequences of his own deeds. Only this kind of people could steer the ship of the economic construction in China.
To conclude, there are far more good qualities than those above. But a qualified college student should be at least honest, ambitious, and responsible.

It is reported by the World Luxury Association that by 2012 China will have been expected to be the biggest trade and consumer center of luxury goods. And this provokes a heated discussion.
There are many factors that have stimulated this great change of consumption value. First of all, the rising of living standard enables people to afford the luxury goods. Secondly, owing to the high quality and famous designer, consumers prefer luxuries as long as the goods meet their needs in terms of aesthetics or collection value. Last but not least, it is vanity that derives more and more people to buy luxury goods. Consumers prefer so much to imitate their idols like pop stars that they just blindly pursue the trend and label themselves as rich.
As a college student, I am supposed to buy what I can afford. I’ll take the factors like style , quality and design into consideration, regardless of whatever the brand is.
We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job. Here are some suggestions on how to give a good speech.
First of all, it is important to plan. Do your homework. Find out everything you can about your subject. And, at the same time, find out as much as you can about your audience. Who are they? What do they know about your subject? Do they have a common interest? Why are they coming to hear you speak? Put yourself in their shoes as you prepare your speech①. Just remember: be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion.
Let us suppose that you have been asked to introduce the main speaker at a meeting. First, find out the most important and interesting things about the speaker. Then, summarize this information in a few words. Remember, you are not the main speaker; you are introducing the main speaker.
If you are giving a lecture or explaining an idea, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures or charts if they will help you make your points more clearly. Never forget your audience. Don’t talk over their heads, and don’t talk down to them②. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.
If you follow these simple steps, you’ll see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you ask to make more speeches! You’re not convinced yet? Give it a try and see what happens.

With the popularity of the Internet, network columns in which celebrities such as pop stars, atheles show off their wealth become prevalent.
Opinions on this issue differ from person to person. An army of people, especially youngsters today are fond of these activities. Not only can they know about the latest information of these celebrities but also they can get their shopping desires stimulated by copying what the rich do. On the contrary, a number of people hold the negative attitude towards this phenomenon. They maintain that the show-off may mislead the public’s value of consumption that erode people’s outlook on life.
For my part, despite the continuous improvement of people’s living standard, in China where the gap between the rich and the poor is increasingly widening, the rich should play at least a small role in helping those in povertity instead of flaunting their wealth.

A host of people expecially teachers think it is necessary to hold spoken English test. They regard if someone want to master English well, he had to say English fluently. Firstly, through such a test, which can motivate students plunge into learning spoken English. Secondly, China is a competing society. Pehaps you will beat your rival obtaining your job which you are satisfied with by saying fluent English. Lastly, China is expericining reform and opening-up. Many foreigners come into China. If you want to communicate with them,you had to grasp spoken English well. All these points are indispensable to holding spoken English test.
Some people ,however, take a different attitude. Spoken English test is regarded as being unnecessary. For one thing, they think China has not a good language circumstance to practice spoken English. For another, In daily life, most of us have a touch with Chinese. It is unnecessary for us to communicate with each other in using English.
As far as I am concerned, I am in favor of holding spoken English test, which will benifit students forever. If you can say English fluently,you will pround of yourself. So I decide to study spoken English hard and grasp every opportunities to practice my spoken English.
To swim the English Channel takes at least nine hours. Its hard work and it makes you short of breath. To fly over the channel takes only twenty minutes as long as youre not held up at the airport, but its an expensive way to travel. You can travel by hovercraft if you dont mind the noise and that takes forty minutes. Otherwise, you can go by boat, if you remember sea-sickness pills. All these means of transport have their problems, and the weary traveler often dreams of being able to drive to France in his own car. Not possible, you say. Well, wait a minute people are once again considering the idea of a Channel tunnel or bridge. This time , the great London Council is looking into the possibility of building a channel link straight to London. A bridge would cost far more a tunnel, but you would be able to go by rail or by car on a bridge, whereas a tunnel would provide a rail link only.
Why is this idea being discussed again? Is Britain realizing the need for links with Europe as a result of joining EEC? Well, perhaps. The main reason , though, is that a tunnel or bridge would reach the twenty square kilometers of Londons discussed stimulate trade and revitalise the port, and would ,make London a main trading center in Europe. With a link over the channel, you could buy your fish and chips in England and be able to eat them in France while they are still warm!
On college campuses across the nation, there is a noticeable phenomenon that we cannot afford to ignore: far too many young college students lack the sense of gratitude, one of the countless traditional virtues of this ancient land with a splendid civilization spanning over 5,000 years. These young *s were not and are not aware of the huge importance of expressing gratitude to those who once helped them, from teachers to parents and so forth.
Personally, I deem that the root cause of students without a graceful heart is that they receive an education not valuing the moral sphere. I strongly believe that joint efforts from folks across society are the final remedy for this social headache. As young university students of the new era, we should make our own contributions to this cause. Imagine a world without the sense of gratitude. This kind of world is doomed to failure. Sim* put, we should join our hands to heighten our awareness of fostering a graceful heart. Only in this way can we build our society into a harmonious one. My fellow students, I beg you to act from now on.

As we all know , fast foodis becoming more and more popular in Chian,childrens and teenagers to eat fast food very much.
There are many reasons for its popularity . Firstly, fast food is very conrenient and save time. Secondly,fast food restaurant enviroment is clean and comfortable. Thridly,fast food restaurant have good service and has a very good taste. However,it also has many disadrantages. Every coin has two sides. At first,nothing balanced diet. Last but not least , eat many fast food put on weight.
In my opinion, fast food can try, but childrens should not eat fast food, it many do harm to their health.
With the rapid development of the societymore and more people are busier with their own work.They have so litle time that they can't spare too time on cooking.
As a resultthe fast food become more and more popular.It all because that fast food are convenient.
Howevereating fast food have so many disadvantages.Above allit can't provide enough nutrition that we need.
Besideswe may get fed up with the fast food as we eat it for a long time.We can't always have the food that we want.
In order to ameliorate the fast foodI think the variety of the food shoud be increased.
Vagetables and meat should be included at the same time and it must be clean enough for the customers.
In present-day China, fast food is so popular, especially among children and teenagers, that it can be seen in every big and medium-sized city. It’s even difficult to think of any other single thing that represents the fast pace of modern society in the way that fast food does.
Some people think it is very convenient and saves a lot of time.
The trends of modern society seem to all point to one ultimate goal―saving time, and fast food well serves this purpose. In their opinions, its popularity is also attributed to the restaurants’ clean and cozy environment, excellent service, and guaranteed quality of food and drinks.
However, others maintain that fast food is usually low in nutrition and can’t be regarded as a balanced diet.
For example, doctors suggest that people, especially children, eat fast food as little as possible. Besides, although cooking at home is time-consuming and the following washing-up tiresome, it offers healthy and delicious meals your body needs and likes.
As far as I’m concerned, fast food is not my best choice.
For one thing, I prefer traditional spicy Chinese food. For another, being engaged in the work all day, I may spend one or two hours to prepare my favorite dishes to ensure myself a nice rest. As a result, fast food is only a good choice when I am in a hurry and resort to it once in a while.
Fast food is very popular in the foreign countries, so many children have the problem of obesity. But nearly every kid like to eat fast food, because it smells really good. But it is known to all that fast food is not good for people’s health. Eating it for a long time will make them lose nutrition and become fat.
So we’d better stay away from fast food, or if we like it so much, we should not eat it often.
Fast food becomes more popular now, especially among the teenagers and the children. Why do so many people like fast food?
For one thing, it's very fast and convenient. It always serves in no time, so we can either eat it in the restaurant or take it away. For another, because of the different ways of cooking, it looks nice and tastes delicious.
What's more, the service and environment is good, so that we can have our dinner in a happy mood.
However, in terms of nutrition, it's far from satisfactory. Most fast food is junk food. It contains so much sugar and fat, which makes us put on weight so easily. Since the westerners have the fast food every day, most of them have heavy weights, high blood pressure and bad teeth.
Therefore, I suggest that we should eat less fast food but more nutritious dishes.
