1、Recent years, the number of crimes committed by young people in major cities throughout the world has been increasing. Why this has happened and how to deal with this problem? 犯罪 A大城市竞争激烈 B经济和心理压力大 C年轻人犯罪解决 Intense competition economic pressures release negative emotions A: 影视作品追求收视率 R: 接触承认内容 E：年轻人

3、)，年轻人犯罪率下降 Juvenile delinquency has become a widespread problem in some urban areas and it is important to tackle this problem. The competition is intense in cities and this is possibly a primary cause of soaring youth crime. Young people are likely to face some problems that cause economic pressure
4、s, and it is difficult for them to find well-paid jobs and afford property. They may choose to commit crimes to release negative emotions or sometimes to earn a fast buck. Another reason is that media companies give importance to the coverage of violence and crime in order to boost ratings. Exposure
5、 to violence can have a negative effect on young peoples perception of violence, and they do not realise the consequences of their behaviour. As a consequence, they may fall into a life of crime. This is particularly the case for those who lack self-control. To solve this problem, governments should
6、 launch awareness campaigns, which enable young adults to understand the dire consequences of crimes. It is therefore easier to curb crime. Young people should also receive a well-rounded education and improve skills. Education can provide them with oppoirtunities to increase competitivenes and make
7、 a decent living. This will also lead to a lower crime rate. To summarise, I believe that competition and the media are responsible for juvenile delinquency. This issue can be addressed by government action, such as giving young people educational opportunities. Some teachers say students should be
8、organised into groups to study. Others argue students should be arranged to study alone. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.教育类 A 小组学习 B 互相交流，知识共享 C 学生能发现自己知识漏洞 （ knowledge gaps） Draw upon each others ideas pool knowledge A 单独学习 b.不会被同伴拉后腿（ held back by peersc. ） 专心 (concentrate on studies
9、) , 时间自由 (Manage time freely )， 效率高 A小组学习 -B一起讨论 -C提升交流 (Communication skills)、合作 (abilities to work well in groups) 、解决冲突能力 (skills to resolve disagreement) It is sometimes argued that students can achieve more if they study in groups. I agree with this idea, although studying independently is some
10、times important. If students study in teams, they are able to communicate with each other and share knowledge. Teamwork provides them with opportunities to discover knowledge gaps and acquire knowledge accordingly to fill these gaps. They can make the most of each others knowledge and strengths to o
11、vercome their weaknesses. By contrast, it is difficult for those students who study by themselves to realise their problems and make progress. On the other hand, opponents argue that it is possible to improve learning outcomes, if These students are less likely to be held back by peers, and students
12、 study independently.they do not have to block out distractions in team meetings or assignments. It is easier for them to concentrate on studies and manage time freely, thereby performing well in studies. This benefit is obvious for high-achievers. In my opinion, studying in groups enables students
13、to improve communication skills.They normally discuss how to solve problems together and how to deal with team tasks. These experiences make it possible for them to improve abilities to work well in groups and upgrade the skills to resolve disagreement. They are thus well prepared for their working
14、lives. To sum up, I believe that both approaches can benefit students, but it appears that studying in groups offers more advantages. Some people think the increasing business and cultural contact between countries brings many positive effects. Others say it causes the loss of national identities.
