1、 Should College Students Be Allowed to Get Married? There is no denying the fact that it is a hotly debated topic today whether college students should be allowed to get married. Some time ago, the ban was lifted by some universities on students getting married. To this peoples attitudes differ shar
2、ply. Some hold the positive view. They say that most college students are adults and that it is a basic right for those who have reached the appropriate ages to get married. Besides, they argue that with their biological and emotional needs met, these students will study better. The ban on this mean
3、s a severe violation of human rights. Many others, however, hold the negative opposite view. They claim that the university or college is a place to study instead of a community to lead family life. Allowing college students to get married would adversely affect their study. For instance, they would
4、 spend too much time attending their family and love, unable to concentrate on their school work. As far as I am concerned, Weighing the arguments of both sides, I believe that it is OK to allow college students to get married. Anyway, this is their freedom. Actually, we dont have to worry too much
5、because facts have shown that most college students would choose not to get married in the face of such fierce competition and heavy school work. (或 As far as I am concerned, Weighing the arguments of both sides, I believe that college students should not be allowed to get married. Though mostly adu
6、lts, they are actually immature psychologically. Their wishes to get married are, more often than not, impulses. Besides, as students, they are not ready to support a family financially.Career or Family: which is more important?When asked about their opinion of career and family, people always respo
7、nd differently. Some people deem it more important to pursue their career, while there are always other people who argue that family should be the number one in ones life.It goes without any question that career plays a key role in our life. In the very first place, career can give us an aim to live
8、 on. Without career, much of our living time will be certainly wasted. Whats more, career can provide us with a means to live on. Most of the people earn their income from a job. On the other hand, family is also an indispensable part of life, as many people will admit. Family is always regarded as
9、a place where we can escape from troubles in life. In addition, we can obtain a sense of belonging to from family. Without it, anyone will feel lonely and desperate.In my opinion, career and family are not in opposition to each other. Rather, they can enhance each other so that ones life can become
10、better and better. Therefore, its not a choice between right and wrong, but one between ideal and practical.Olympics and IDear friend,I have a great news to inform here. Through long efforts, Beijing has been granted the right to host 2008 Olympic games. As a resident in Beijing, I feel quite excite
11、d and like to share with you my happiness.This success means a lot more than a game to me. In the first place, this Games will definitely promote the development of our economy. According to a recent survey by some experts, this games will raise our GDP by about 3%, and offer about 10,000 jobs. What
12、s more, our culture will be widely recognized and accepted all over the world through the Games. People will come over from every corner of the world, and experience Chinese culture in every aspect. Besides, through the games, our living environment will be greatly improved. For example, the public
13、transportation system will be up-dated. Moreover, its known that more trees will be planted, and grassland will be considerably expanded.My friend, I really look forward to the coming of this great Games. As an individual, Im all ready to offer my help in any way I can. I also hope to invite you all
14、 to come here, and watch the games in 2008. Sincerely yours,How to Improve Students Mental Health1. 大学生心理健康很重要 2. 为此，学校可以3. 我们自己应该In modern society, people are destined to cope with a lot of pressure, from either outer world or inner will. The cases of suicide in campus in recent years fully reveal
15、the importance of mental health.As a consequence, it is imperative for the colleges and universities to take effective actions. In the first place, the authorities concerned should enhance the awareness of college students that mental fitness is of utmost significance to them. It is true that physic
16、al factors affect ones health conditions a great deal, but at the same time, we should not neglect the mental factors. In the second place, the universities should frequently enlighten the juvenile to keep optimistic in their daily life.Hence, it is vital for us to keep mental health under whatsoeve
17、r circumstances. All of us have experienced failures. However, some with self-confidence may draw lessons from failure and achieve success, while others are desperately frustrated. When most people are aware of the significance of physical health, we must also remind them of the value of mental heal
18、th.Directions: In this section, you are asked to write a composition entitled Should people own cars or not? Your composition should be based on the outline given below. Your composition should be at least 150 words.Outline:1. 有人赞成个人买车。 2. 也有人持相反观点。3. 你的看法。Should People Own Cars or Not?(a) There is
19、no denying the fact that it has been a hotly debated topic in China whether people should have their own cars. Peoples opinions differ sharply on this issue. Some hold the positive view. They say that the car provides the most convenient form of transportation. Besides, a car is a comfortable way to
20、 travel, especially in winter. Finally, a driver is usually safe in his car when he is out at night.Others, however, hold the opposite view. They say that there are many disadvantages to owning a car. For one thing, it can be very expensive to purchase and run a car. For another, owning a car can al
21、so cause worry and stress. It is exhausting to drive a car in heavy traffic. What is worse, cars are responsible for most of the smog in cities, which pollutes the environment seriously.In spite of all the above mentioned, I still favor owning a car. The reason is that the car gives a person the fre
22、edom to schedule his own time. Though we are confronted with a problem of energy crisis, I am sure that the real solution will have to be a new kind of car, one that uses cheap, efficient fuel and does not contaminate the air.(b) Nowadays, an increasing number of people have become car owners. Yet t
23、here is no consensus on the development of private cars. Some people hold the positive view. They say that the car is the result of modern science and technology and everyone is entitled to enjoy it. They also argue that the development of private cars will vigorously stimulate the development of ot
24、her industries and the whole national economy.Others, however, hold the negative view. They point out that the increasing number of cars have led to a series of problems. First, they result in air pollution, which seriously damage peoples health. Secondly, too many cars on the road easily lead to tr
25、affic jams, which actually slow down the pace of life and work.Weighing the pros and cons of these arguments, I am inclined to agree with the latter point of view. The government should put a ban on the development of private cars and exert more efforts to develop public transportation, such as buse
26、s and subways. In this way, we can both enjoy efficiency and a clean environment.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic Buying Lottery Tickets. You should write at least 150 words and you should base your composition on the outline given below: 1. 有
27、些人赞成买彩票 2. 有些人反对买彩票 3. 你的观点 Buying Lottery Tickets There is no denying the fact that buying lottery tickets is a hotly debated topic in China today. There is no denying the fact that buying lottery tickets is becoming popular in China today. Some people believe that it is beneficial in many ways. In
28、 the first place, it helps raise money for such groups as the poor and the disabled as well as for such causes as sports. (Thus, the heavy financial burden on the government will be relieved or even removed.) In the second place, lottery games provide people with a means of entertainment or pastime.
29、 (Without lottery games, many people might find nothing interesting to do. Last but not least, by buying lottery tickets, one may make a fortune overnight.) Others, however, hold the opposite view. They say that buying lottery tickets is actually a kind of gambling. People are encouraged to earn mon
30、ey through guessing instead of down-to-earth labor. As a result, some people are tempted to commit crimes. A case in point is the two bank clerks in Heibei who stole millions of money from the bank to buy lottery tickets. Weighing the arguments of both sides, I am inclined to agree with the former.
31、Lottery games can serve as a good means to raise funds. But the ticket buyers should keep in mind the original purpose of such games, that is, to help the underprivileged or to contribute to public welfare. If they happen to win the prizes, its nothing but a return for their kindness. (Personally, I
32、 think that both sides have something right. Actually, lottery games should be viewed as a two-edged sword, which presents us with both benefits and troubles. But we should not give up eating for fear of choking. The best policy, as I see it, is to maximize their advantages and eliminate their unhealthy side-effects. Or in other words, we should further develop lottery games and exert proper supervision over them so that they can benefit us in a better way.)
