2.分析“远离网吧”运动的原因

3.作出对比的评论

Away from Net-bar Campaign

It has been reported that a middle school in Xuzhou City has recently launched a campaign named “Away from Net-bar”. More than a thousand students have signed for their solemn promise that they will not spend a single minute in the net-bars. With the nearing of the summer vacation, this campaign is especially meaningful for the healthy development of the minors.

The internet has brought people great convenience in getting information, entertainment and contact with others, and it has also benefited some businessmen, especially the owner of net-bars. While it is true that most net-bars are running legally, it is also true that some are offering unhealthy programs that involve violence and sex content. Since most middle school students are prone to be influenced and they can hardly tell which bars are doing well and which ones are not, it is only advisable that they stay away from all. Besides , staying away from net-bars also does good to students’ physical health. By passively sitting too long in front of the computer screen, both their eyesight and physique suffer.

Obviously , the Away from Net-bars Campaign is an activity that is worth advocating and it merits other schools’ reference

篇六：Online Education

1.目前网络教育形成热潮

2.我认为这股热潮的'的原因是……

3.我对网络教育的评价

Being online is no longer something strange in our life. To some degree, it has become part of our daily life. We can do a lot of things online, such as searching for information and communicating with friends far and near. But recently another helpful online activity has become very “in”. That is online education.

Why could online education be so popular within such a short period of time? Among other reasons, the quick development of the internet should be an essential one, which makes all our dreams of attending class in the distance possible. Another underlying reason is the quick development of both society and technology. Today ,modern science and technology is developing with lightening speed. To catch up with this development we all feel an urgent and strong desire to study. However , due to the great pace of modern society , many people are too busy to study full time at school. Online education just comes to their aid.

Personally , I appreciate this new form of education. It’s indeed a helpful complement to the traditional educational means. It can provide different learners with more flexible and versatile ways of learning. Most of all ,with online education, we can sick to our jobs and at the same time study and absorb the latest knowledge.

篇七：Air Pollution

根据所给的题目和下面的关键词，写一篇120个词左右的短文：

health , surrounded by , smog , anything but , gases , impurities , absorb , poisonous , try hard , blacked out

We all know that clean air is important to good health. Wherever you go and whatever you do, you are always surrounded by a sea of gases that we call air. If there are impurities in the air, they may be absorbed by our bodies and make us ill. We need clean air, but unfortunately , air pollution is globally present , especially in cities.

Many large cities are anything but pollution-free. Our cities have many factories, which we need to make food, clothing and other things. Every year these factories pour millions upon millions of tons of smog into air. Power plants and houses that burn coal add greatly to air pollution. Besides , there are more cars in cities now. Once out on the streets, they will take in fresh air and replace it with poisonous gases.

Our country is trying hard to prevent and control air pollution. As long as every citizen also realizes its importance and makes join efforts, the day will come soon when people will take in only clean air. Then , the sunlight will no longer be blackened out by smoke and soot.

I graduated two years form ** University, and obtained a bachelor’s degree in the field of business management. During my stay in the university my major courses included macro-economics , business communication skills marketing and computer applications. I was especially fond of the communication skills which enabled me to deal with people and thing around well.

Upon graduation I engaged with HP China Branch as an assistant to the head of Marketing Department. My responsibilities consisted of carrying out market surveys, writing reports and organizing meetings within the department. This is two-year experience has helped me a lot in many ways.

篇九：To Be a small Fish in a Big Pond or a Big Fish in a Small Pond?

1．在大企业工作的特点

2．在小企业工作的特点

3．我的选择

Just as there are

distinct differences between being a small fish is a big pond and a big fish in a small pond, so it is with working as a subordinate in a large enterprise and presiding in a small firm.

With the former, you can derive a deep sense of satisfaction from being a member of a well-known organization such as General Motors, or the Bell Telephone System. You have the opportunities of learning from experienced executives and knowing about the standard working process.

With the latter, you have greater responsibilities and your decision may bring immediate effect. Normally you are expose to various experiences and expected to do a great many thing without much help or guidance.

Personally I prefer to work in a small enterprise, where my prospect of promotion is good as long as I work hard. To tell the truth , I’d rather become a well-known and important figure within my own small pond.

篇十：Styles of Living

1．有些人愿意和父母居住在一起

2．有些人想自己独立居住

3．我的看法

Some people enjoy living together with their parents after they have grown up. They hold the opinion because , living with parents , they can take better care of their parents and vice versa. Meanwhile , they can turn to their parents for help if they get into trouble or have some difficulties. To them, life in a big family seems to be more enjoyable than that in a small family.

Others, however , prefer to live separately. They cherish the idea to be independent of their parents, seek more freedom and wish to have a place of their own, in which they can do what they like. Bedsides , they don’t want to be overprotected by their parents but long for chance to face the society by themselves.

As to me , I like an independent life style in spite of the fact I love my parents. Different generations have different life styles and values. What one generations likes may not be another generation’s fondness. Living separately , each generation can enjoy different value. In addition , by leading an independent life , I can train my character and develop my own ability to deal with things encountered in my life.

考得学位英语，是我们现在复习英语作文的一个目标。下面是我给大家整理的学位英语考试作文，供大家参阅!

Directions: Some people think that knowledge gained from books is much richer and broader than what can be learned from direct experiences. Do you agree or disagree with this view? Write a composition on Which one is more important, knowledge gained from practical experiences or knowledge acquired from books ?

Which One is More Important, Knowledge Gained from Practical Experiences or Knowledge Acquired from Books?

Knowledge can be acquired from many sources. These include books, teachers and practical experiences, and each has its own advantages.

The knowledge we gain from books and formal education enables us to learn about things that we have no opportunity to experience in daily life. We can study all the places in the world and learn from people we will never meet in our lifetime, just by reading about them in books. We can also develop our analytical skills and learn how to view and interpret the world around us in different ways. Furthermore, we can learn from the past by reading books. In this way, we won’t repeat the mistakes of others and can build on their achievements.

Practical experiences, on the other hand, can give us more useful knowledge. It is said that one learns best by doing, and I believe that this is true, whether one is successful or not. In fact, I think making mistakes is the best way to learn. Moreover, if one wants to make new advances, it is necessary to act. Innovations do not come about through reading but through experimentation. Finally, one can apply the skills and insights gained through the study of books to practical experiences, making an already meaningful experience more meaningful. However, unless it is applied to real experiences, book knowledge remains theoretical and, in the end, is useless. That is why I believe that knowledge gained from practical experiences is more important than that acquired from books.

Tradition and Modernization

The process of modernization today is even greater than before. It is unavoidable that some achievements are made ① at the cost of tradition. Many people believe that tradition should be reserved to the largest extent. On the one hand, they think that the tradition is the ② cream of history with perfect conclusion and abstraction, and thus it should be followed. On the other hand, we should keep our own traditional characteristics as a culture, so that we can find our own position in a world of ③ diversity.

However, some people believe that it is worthwhile to abandon tradition for modernization. In the first place, they view the history as a ④ linear course moving forward, and outdated concepts must be timely eliminated. In the second place, they believe that civilization is more important, and should be realized ⑤ at all costs.

As far as I am concerned, we should sort out the universal truth in our tradition and stick to them. But we should also selectively put down some traditions for a better life.

名师点评

Living in Big Cities or Medium and Small Cities?

① We can not choose where we were born, but we can choose where we live during the whole life. ② That’s why after graduation, some students want to stay in big cities like Beijing and Shanghai, while some others might long to live in medium and small cities like Yantai and Ningbo.

When referring to the city they’d like to live, different college graduates have different choices. ③ Some insist that big cities are their favorites because there are more opportunities for personal development and more modern facilities that make their lives wonderful and convenient. ③ In addition, they believe that their horizons will be broadened and their potentials will be fully exploited before so many challenges. ④ However, there are a large part of people choosing to live in medium and small cities. ⑤ Firstly, less pressure there will make them live much more comfortable. ⑤ Secondly, the air is fresher than big cities. Therefore, it will be beneficial to their health.

⑥ Personally speaking, I’d rather choose to go to big cities because personal development ⑦ rather than comfort is what I have been pursuing.

Analysis
