Q and A Q: How can I improve my writing if I cannot write complete sentences?A: Wring is to express your thought through language. Here we have to key elements: language and th

20、ought. For a successful writing activity to happen, both are necessary. When writing in our mother tongue, we spend almost no time in considering language, so our attention is mainly on contents. But when writing in a foreign language, we have to pay attention to both language and thought. If we can

21、not deal with these two, we might never learn to write in a foreign language well.Generally speaking, learning to write in a foreign language demands you to go through three steps, although there is not clear distinction between them. First, learning the basic vocabulary and grammar of this language

22、. At this time, learners have not grasped the basic usage, therefore are still in the basic stage of language learning. Writing exercise usually does not exit in this period; even if it does, it mainly serves a kind of vocabulary or grammar exercise. This kind of writing practice presents very simpl

23、e contents, but requires that learners should use both vocabulary and grammar correctly.Second, learning both language and thought expression. At this time, learners have already got familiar with the basic vocabulary and grammar, and can express simple ideas in this language. Writing exercises at t

24、his stage can work for two purposes. Firstly, they can help learners further their understanding of this language. Secondly, they can help learners express certain ideas in foreign language. In the learning practice, these two aspects are actually inseparable. Many students start to keep diary in En

25、glish from Junior Three; they are in fact progressing in this second stage. Third, learning to focus on thought. When learners If you find it difficult to write complete sentences, you are still in the first stage. At this stage, you do not have to rush to long articles, although you may have some p

26、recious profound ideas in your mind. You should make efforts in language accumulation, paying special attention to usages of common words and sentence patterns. Besides, doing translation exercise may also help you improve your ability in using the language, thus making preparation for improving you

27、r writing ability. Many exercises in our translation column are also helpful in improving your ability in writing. Whats more, doing more reading exercises can also help sharpen your sensitivity towards the language.To sum up, you may try to make efforts in these three aspects: accumulate language m

28、aterials, try some translation exercises, and take up some reading exercises. As your language proficiency gradually improves, you will also gradually move into the second stage. Then you will have no trouble in producing complete sentences. 裬 򵥣 򵥵12 𲽽 Opportunity and Success

29、Opportunities dont come often. They come every once in a while. Very often, they come quietly and go by without being noticed. Therefore ,it is advisable that you should value and treat them with care. When an opportunity comes, it brings a promise but never realizes it on its own. If you want to ac

30、hieve something or intend to fulfill one of your ambitious, you must work hard, make efforts and get prepared. Otherwise, you will take no advantage of opportunities when they come to visit you. The difference between a man who succeeds and one who does not lies only in the way each treats opportuni

31、ties. The successful person always makes adequate preparations to meet opportunities as they duly arrive. The unsuccessful person, on the other hand, works little and just waits to see them pass by. In my opinion, there are plenty of opportunities for everyone in our society, but only those who are

32、prepared adequately and qualified highly can make use of them to achieve their purpose. PrivatecarOutline: 1)Advantages of owning a private car. 2)Disadvantages of owning a private car. 3)Should it be necessary to enlarge the private car market? Why or why not? Nowadays, any Chinese can enjoy the lu

33、xury of owning a private car - if he or she can afford it. Having a car of your own means no more traveling to work on crowded buses or subway trains, and you can drop off the children at school on the way. Moreover, it also means that you can enjoy theHowever, there are drawbacks to owning a car. F

34、or one thing, with the increase in car ownership in recent years, the roads are becoming more and more crowded, often making the journey to work more of a nightmare than a dream. For another, it is not cheap to run a car, as the prices of gasoline and repairs are constantly rising, not to mention th

35、e prices you have to pay for a licence and insurance coverage. Having considered both sides of the argument, I have come to the conclusion that the advantages of owning a car outweigh the disadvantages. Therefore, it seems to me that China should increase its output of automobiles and enlarge the pr

36、ivate car market. The result would be that cars would become cheaper, while at the same time the extra demand would encourage the auto industry to produce more efficient and family-oriented vehicles. On Developing Tourism Tourism, a smokeless industry, is developing rapidly in China. With the open a

37、nd reform policy being carried out, thousands upon thousands of foreign visitors are crowding into our country. The are eager to see this old mysterious land with a splendid culture of more than 5000 years. Tourism brings China a lot of benefits. First it enables the Chinese people to know more abou

38、t the outside world and promotes friendship and mutual understanding. Second , it is financially beneficial to China, which needs more foreign currencies for its modernization program. Tourism, however, gives rise to a number of problems. For instance, it becomes a burden to our inefficient transpor

39、tation system. Besides, the living standard of the average Chinese is still not high enough to be able to afford the many different sorts of expenses during long distance travels. As for me, I believe that with the development of our national economy, all these problems will certainly be solved step

40、 by step. A much better and brighter future awaits. The Value of Time As a popular saying goes, Time is money. In fact, time is more precious than money. When money is spent, you can earn it back if you want to. However, when time is gone, it will never come back. As the pace of modern life continue

41、s to accelerate ,the time at our disposal is quite limited. But there are a lot of things to be done in our lives. We should make full use of our time to fulfil what is useful to us. For instance, as students we should devote most of our time to our academic studies. In this way we can acquire new k

42、nowledge and skill necessary for our future carrier. In my opinion, wasting time means wasting our valuable life. But many of us dont realize this .They think time is inexhaustable. Im not in favor of such of a view .Hence ,my conclusion is that we should never put off what can be today until tomorr

43、ow. Are Prizes a GoNobody denies that competitions with prizes can bring peoples initiative into full play. Encouraged by a strong desire to win a prize, one will go all out to seek his greatest success. Consequently, the best achievements will be obtained in a game with awards. However, the prompti

44、ng of a prize does not always lead to desirable results. For example, a competitor who cannot overcome the temptation of a prize is likely to take a stimulant .And the hopeless competitor sees nothing but the prize, which might cause improper behavior. I my opinion, the remedy lies in moral educatio

45、n of competitors. This will help them to understand the slogan: Friendship-first, and competition-second. Then, prices will play a better part in any contest. Generally speaking, I believe that prizes are a good thing. On Keeping a Diary in English Keeping a diary in English is one of the effective

46、ways to improve our English writing ability. Compared with other forms of writing, it is shorter and takes less time. It can help us to cultivate the habit of thinking in English. If we persist in this practice, gradually well learn how to express ourselves in English. In keeping a diary in English,

47、 we inevitably run up against a lot of difficulties .In the first place, it often happens that we have trouble finding appropriate words and phases to give expression to our mind. Secondly , there are many idiomatic ways of saying things in Chinese. And it is extremely hard for us to put them into E

48、nglish properly. Certainly, there are some other roadblocks we may come across in our keeping a diary in English. As far as Im concerned, my suggestion is that we should always have a notebook and a Chinese-English dictionary within easy reach. Whenever something beats us, we can first put it down i

49、n our notebook and then consult our dictionary. We can also turn to our English teacher for help, if necessary. In short, I believe that it is of great use to keep a diary in English for the development of our writing skills. On University Tuition System in China Tuition system has become one of the

50、 hottest topics in China since it was put into effect. Different people have different opinions on it. Some people think that there is no university in the world which is open to students without tuition. As far as China is concerned, it is a developing country with the largest population in the wor

51、ld. The government is unable to allocate enough funds to pay for various teaching facilities and many different kinds of expenses. One of the ways to relieve the problem is for students to pay tuition. The money raised in this way can be used to improve the conditions for running schools. Others ,ho

52、wever, are opposed to the tuition system. They argue that the living standard of the Chinese people ,especially of those in the poor rural areas, is still low, compared with that in the Western World. The university tuition will certainly add to the already heavy f Chinas higher education. This is b

53、ecause it hinders some talented people from entering the university just on account of their poverty. SmokingIt is almost known to all that smoking is bad for peoples health. Scientific researchs show that smoking can lead to heart disease,cancer and other problem.The World Health Organization says

54、diseases linked to smoking kill at least two million five-hundred-thousand persons each year.Still,many people find it difficult to stop smoking.One reason is that smoking usually becomes a habitual behaviour,and habits,whether good or bad are not easy to be given up.Another reason is the effect of

55、nicotine,the substance found in cigarettes works on people somewhat as drugs do.Measures have been taken to help people keep away from the harm of smoking. In many cities,smoking is forbidden in public places.The danger of smoking is warned of everywhere.And newspapers are asked not to publish adver

56、tisements for cigarettes.World No Tobacco Day is observed every year as the biggest compaign against smoking. My first JobBefore I started at university,I took my first job as a waitress in a nice restaurant.At the night before my first day.I was too excited to go to sleep and as a result,I got up l

57、ate in the morning.I threw on my clothes and rushed over to the restaurant.In a great hurry,I didnt hear clearly the head waiters instruction that we should go into the kitchen through one door and out from the other.So when I took two plates of eggs and bacon and an orange juice out to the restaura

58、nt,I went straight towards the wrong door and collided with another waiter coming in!Worst of all was that I wore a pair of smart shoes but with high heels! A few hours later I was in agony yet had no time to change them. By the time we finished serving dinner at about 10:30 I was completely exhaust

59、ed. Nevertheless, I learnt something through my experience. Birth controlSince the Chinese Government singled out family planning as one of the basic state policies in 1978,the country has adopted various measures and achieved great success in birth control.The total birth rate has been decreasing g

60、radually.However,at present Chinas population is still growing very rapidly.It is reported that every year the population of this country increases by an extra 15 million and China is encountering a birth peak during the 1990s.It is abvious that Chinas economic development and improvement of peoples

61、 living standards have been and will be greatly affected by the population.Therefore,to control population growth more strictly is clearly essential to the countrys reforms and economic development.We should restress the importance of birth control and call on the whole nation to make more effective

62、 actions Adverti Advertisements are getting their way into peoples lives. People depend on advertisers in their daily lives because they are cusumers. The advertisers are always manufacturers. Sometimes they are salesmen. Their merchandise needs advertising. Thus nearly every product is advertised.T

63、o some extent, good dvertising means success while bad advertising can means failure. There are many ways to advertise and ads come in different forms. Newspaper carry advertisements. Some products are announced on TV and radio which have a wide audience.Billboards also carry advertising. Advertisin

64、g is a big industry now and many agencies are set up to furnish a variety of services for it.However, advertising is not always truthful.A product is often misrepresented. The advertiser exaggerates the benifits of the merchandise he wants to sell. Thus, he misrepresents the truth.The consumer falls

65、 victim to such advertising. Millions of people have bought advertised products and they havent always been satisfied. Fighting CriminalsToday the crime rate in soe cities of our country is rising. Many citizens often complain about the thefts and robberies that have taken palce in the areas they li

66、ve in and appeal to the governments at all levels to take effective measures to reduce the crime rate.Faced with criminals,some people are so frightened that they shamelessly give up the fight and other people turn a blind eye to them.However,some people are brave enough,to risk their lives to fight

67、 the criminals.Their fearless actions prevented the criminals from doing evils,saved the victims,and protected the public properties.To reduce the crime rate,we all the people should first receive a law education.Criminals must be severely punished.Meanwhile we should set up a foundation to reward t

68、hose who fight criminals.It is also important to call on people to learn from those heroes and encourage more people to stand up to crime. Chapter One 1-1 : , .(e.g) 1.
