27、educing and curing it.Now our high school students will meet more and more stress,most of which come from piles of homework,taking examinations and entering key universities.Proper stress can serve as effective motivation of study,but too much stress tends to cause depression among teenagers.It is o

28、ften reported that some high students have serious mental problems and even commit suicide because they fail to get effective psychological treatment.Since life is unlikely to be smooth,we should find our own ways to reduce our stress and get rid of depression,such as,taking physical exercise,listen

29、ing to music,reading humorous stories,talking with friends and so on in our free time,for we all know that out-letting our pressure is also very important to us.Its not so difficult to be successful In this text,the writer tells us his experience of becoming famous in the field of sports,through whi

30、ch he is trying to tell us that it is not so difficult to be great.Generally speaking,most of us are eager for success and greatness.However,it is up to us whether to be great or not.Great people can be found everywhere around us.If we turn to them for help modestly,they will do what they can to hel

31、p us.With the help of masters,we can avoid unnecessary mistakes and take a short cut to be successful.Besides,if we want to be great,we should spend a lot of time and energy because we cannot achieve our goal without hard work.Whats more,we should make plans and stick to them and never give it up un

32、til we become successful in our work.Dont leave todays work for tomorrow The passage argues that people who lack determination leave todays work for tomorrow and they achieve little success by showing us the example that without strong will John failed to quit smoking.In my opinion,we cant leave tod

33、ays work for tomorrow,because for different days we have different things to do.So if we fail to make up our mind to complete todays work and leave it for tomorrow,well gradually pile up too many things and will never get them done.Still more,only the people without determination and will-power will

34、 find all kinds of excuses for the things they should have done today.That John found excuses for leaving quitting smoking for tomorrow and couldnt make it in the passage is a good lesson for us.In addition,leaving todays work for tomorrow is a bad habit,which will make for a persons laziness.As stu

35、dents,having a lot of things to learn and homework of different subjects to do every day,we cant afford to waste time,so the earlier we plan our time and get down to the work,the better results we will get.When I was a child,I had to depend on my parents.But as time flew,I gradually made my decision

36、s and finish work by myself.When I meet difficulties or challenges in life,I encourage myself to fight against them,not retreat.If I fail,I never give up.Some young men dont try their best to make themselves valuable to human beings.They can not gain achievements unless they see their weakness and c

37、hange their course.They are nothing now,and will be nothing as long as they live,unless they accept the advice of their parents and teachers,and depend on their own efforts.Depend on yourself The author tells us that he is disappointed at peoples selfishness because they are not willing to help othe

38、rs.But he is sure that one must learn to depend on themselves when they are growing up.We middle school students should form the habit of depending on ourselves.Depend on yourself is what nature says to every man.Parents can help you.Teachers can help you.Others still can help you.But all these peop

39、le only help you to help yourself.Never give up!To build a considerably impossible bridge between Newyork and Long Island,John died and Washington was badly injured.But Washington tapped out his instructions with his finger on his wifes arm until the bridge was finally completed.In fact,many famous

40、persons in the world lived through a hard time and got their achievements.We can find lots of examples in our daily life.Thomas Edison,a great inventor,achieved his success after hundreds of failures.Helen Keller,a girl who couldnt hear and see anything,made her great efforts to overcome all the dif

41、ficulties she met with in her lifetime,and became a famous educator and writer.From these facts,we can learn that never giving up will bring you a great success,which John and Washington taught us.I was moved by the story,which shows that one mans spirit,and his determination should not be defeated

42、by circumstances.Personally,I think hardships cannot defeat us if we never give up.Do it by yourself From the passage we know that do-it yourself exists commonly in our daily life.However,we can not do everything by ourselves.So we should keep the balance between cooperation and do-it-yourself.We st

43、udents should form the good habit of do-it-yourself in daily life since we are children.We should do what we can on our own but not depend on others.At home I help parents with some housework,such as cleaning the house,cooking meals,washing clothes and dishes and so on.Nevertheless,some goals can no

44、t be achieved on our own.Instead,we need help and cooperation with others to reach our goals.After all,we have the limit of time,energy and ability.As for me,we can learn to gain independence through do-it-yourself.If so,we will not attach ourselves to our parents and others.Whats more,do-it-yoursel

45、f gives us more experience of doing things and learn the truth of life.Confidence makes no LimitDear Tom,Today,I read a passage talking about the topic we are interested in.Lets share it.It mainly tells us a story of Ashrita,who challenges himself to his limits and sets many Guinness World Records.H

46、e draws conclusions that everyones capacity is unlimited and can do better than expected.I absolutely agree with Ashritas opinion.If we want to achieve success,what we need is selfconfidence.Instead,if you lose heart,you really cant succeed.It reminds me of an experience in a school sports meeting.T

47、wo years ago,I took part in the 800-meter race.Because I had caught a bad cold before that,it seemed impossible for me to finish the painstaking event.But my classmates cheer encouraged me not to lose heart.I eventually rushed to the finishing line.I lost the match,but I was full of joy of fulfillme

48、nt.Its the competition that impressed me a lot.Im very grateful and excited for my perseverance.From then on,I changed much from a girl lacking confidence into the one who faces everything actively.In my opinion,giving up means losing everything.As long as you stick to your strong will and great cou

49、rage,success belongs to you forever.Yours truthly Wang HuaCooperation is needed everywhere The passage tells us that nowadays cooperation is needed in many fields or situations.Cooperation requires us to work together because it makes people united,make our job done easily and encourage us to face d

50、ifficulties.We students need cooperation.Firstly,it can help students to complete the collective tasks efficiently.Secondly,we can help each other in the course of the task.Thirdly,we can learn from others and depend on each other if necessary.Once I was too proud and too independent to work togethe

51、r with others in a proper way.But everything changed one day.There was a time when I met with a problem.I was in such trouble that I turned to one of my classmates for help.We cooperated closely and in the end we made it!It is due to cooperation.Cooperation is needed everywhere.But it does not mean

52、depending on others when the job can be done by yourself.Be grateful to those helping you One day,a crane thanked the young man who helped her,turning into his wife and making beautiful cloth for him to sell and get money.The tale shows that expressing ones gratitude is a lovely quality.I had such a

53、n experience of helping others.One evening,when a man was sadly walking along the street,our car passed and he stopped it and said he needed a ride badly.My father and I did as asked.He felt a little surprised.Seven days later,we got a letter from the man,saying,“I got your car number and knew about

54、 your address with the polices help.So,I write to you to thank you so much for helping me so that I was able to meet my dying wife just before she passed away.God bless you for helping me.”In fact,nobody can tell when he is in trouble.If everybody just looks on,what will our world be?From the story

55、above,I think,“If so for a crane,why not for man?”Nowadays,we do need the atmosphere of helping each other,which will be beneficial to building our harmonious society.We should accept criticism This passage states no matter how competent we are,we will be criticized if we have done something wrong b

56、ecause we are inexperienced.Our teachers and parents may warn us against possible troubles.Sometimes,however,people really dislike criticism.They will make excuses when criticized because they feel they will lose their face if they admit that they are wrong.Or they will refuse to correct their mista

57、kes because they think their seniors are splitting hairs.These people will regret if they refuse to accept others criticism.As a student,to accept criticism is very important.When they refuse to accept criticism,on one hand,they will never find their shortcomings.If they do not think over other peop

58、les words,they will never know what others see in them.On the other hand,they will become bad-tempered and rude.They will not respect their seniors.These are all bad behaviors for us students.Dear editor,I am a reader from China.I recently read a news story in your paper that reports an ATM pays dou

59、ble the amount of money withdrawn from customers accounts,and therefore,many people come and wait in line to draw money there.As a Chinese reader,I do admire the good manners of the gentlemen and gentle ladies,but I do think they lack honesty as citizens,which is essential to our society.In this poi

60、nt,they behave the same like some people in China.As we all know,honesty is the best policy.If we want to have each others belief,we need show our honesty.But actions speak louder than words.Judging from this report,I have come to realize we all lack the awareness of honesty,both in China and the UK

61、.In China,there is a similar story which causes a heat discussion;some people think the customers are innocent,while some believe they are stealing money.And the court believes their behaviors are illegal.I agree to this opinion.How about your opinions?Yours sincerely,Li HuaDear Amy,I am writing thi

62、s letter to share my feelings and thoughts on“peer pressure”.You told me about your conflicted feelings on the first school day after a holiday.You dont know what clothes to wear,whether to be the same as your friends or to be your own person.I suffered the same worry as yours in China.Although we d

63、ont have to be upset about clothes because all of us are required to wear school uniform,we are living under the peer pressure in other aspects,such as,hairstyle,schoolbags,shoes,stationery and even whether to find a boyfriend(girlfriend)or not.In our class,almost all the students wear the same bran

64、d of sneakers,Adidas,no matter rich or poor.This phenomenon gives great pressure to the students from poor families,and finally may lead to worse stories,such as,stealing or dropping out school.So Ive made up my mind to be above the peer pressure.As an old saying goes,“Follow your own course,and let

65、 people talk.”We should be more confident about our own styles and taste.It is diversities that make the world more wonderful,dont you think so?I look forward to hearing from you soon.Yours truly,Li PingDont run away from home According to the passage,our pressures from surroundings make us feel ver

66、y bored and upset.Some people want to run away from home so that they wont face so many stresses.Since I was a child,I have lived with my loved family for 18 years.When I was suffering punishment from my parents,I often thought it was unfair for me and didnt want to speak to them any longer.But I ne

67、ver had the decision to run away from home.I knew clearly that living alone was not so simple as I expected.Whats more,my parents love me so much,so do I.I dont think running away is the best of way to solve your problems or find your way out.As far as I am concerned,it is foolish for us to run away

68、 from home because we wont get the real independence and freedom.Not until it is too late will we realize what we have done is very absurd.We should lessen our stresses in a proper way.Dont be discouraged under stress.Home is the best place where we grow up.Silence the Negative Voice The author tell

69、s us that when people say were not good at something,we should move past the negative voice by giving us a story about Arthur Miller who became a great dancer through hard work although he was told he danced badly when young.An example that jumps into my mind is about my father.When he was young,he

70、was interested in drawing.One day with great excitement he showed his drawing to my grandmother and told her seriously,“Im going to be an artist when I grow up.”He expected her to mirror back his enthusiasm with“great”.Instead she replied,“Im afraid theres no good in your drawing.”It really upset hi

71、m but fortunately he didnt give up.Following his dream,he took every opportunity to practice drawing and now hes a famous artist.From what has been mentioned above,we can safely draw the conclusion that we should silence the negative voice and try our best to realize our dreams.Say no to violence on

72、line From the news report,we know a school student in Finland killed 10 other students with a gun and then shot himself.The motivation and plan of this shooting is greatly influenced by the violent video clips on the Internet.With its widespread,the Internet brings people especially teenagers harm a

73、s well as benefits.It is very easy for people to get addicted to the Internet because it can provide the varieties and huge amount of information and the imaginative and free cyber space.However,compared with adults,teenagers havent formed the ability to tell right from wrong.So they are easily expo

74、sed to the bad influence of the violence and pornography online.Some teenagers even follow the bad examples and regard those violent acts as cool behaviors,which results in the rising rate of teenager crime.I think teenagers should be better guided by their parents and teachers when surfing on line.

75、Besides,more regulations and laws should be set up to check what can be posted and what can not on the Internet.Only in this way can the circulation of violence on line be slowed and reduced.My dream-outdoor life The passage tells us that the writers daughters special outdoor life.And he thinks it i

76、s important for children to have outdoor life,which makes difference in childrens life.As for me,I feel that my life is so dull that I am not satisfied with my life any more.Therefore,I want to have my own outdoor life which can broaden my horizons.Outdoor life has lots of advantages.Firstly,we can

77、learn more things that can not be learned in classes.Moreover,outdoor environment gives us healthier condition,in which we can have fresh air,cool water and so on.Most importantly,in outdoors,we can devote ourselves to studying more easily.Of course,indoor life is also important,but we should pay mo

78、re time on our outdoor life.The life full of freedom,equality and fresh air,real natural things,is my dream life.Id like to live such a special outdoor life.Participation enriches your school lifeThe passage introduces the student associations in Leiden.Student associations can enrich student life a

79、nd develop their different skills.Augustinus is one of the biggest student associations,which holds a variety of weekly programmes.There are no less than 40 student associations in our school including IT Association,Echo Band,English Corner,Chess Association and some others.All the associations hol

80、d activities or performances every Wednesday afternoon after the last period.My favorite one is English Corner.There I not only can practice and improve my English,but also can make a lot of friends who love English.The organizers often invite some English native-speakers to English Corner and organ

81、ize some games and speaking competitions among the participants as well,which makes English Corner more popular and interesting.The high school life is very busy and stressed for most Chinese students.But if you can join in some students associations,you can forget your pressure for a moment and dev

82、elop your organizational,communicative and social skills along with your academic performances.Is there real friendship between boys and girls?Michellita,a Brazilian girl,thought there was no real friendship between boys and girls because of the unhappy experience between her and a boy.In my opinion

83、,there is real friendship between boys and girls.Friendship between opposite sex is beneficial to the psychological health.Boys and girls are born to have different characters and their own advantages.So boys and girls can learn from each other and help each other in the way of living and thinking w

84、hen getting along.As for the worry of falling in love,I think if you are conscious of the direction and development of your friendship,you can get the relationship under your control.I am always feeling very blessed that I have kept very pure and sincere friendship with a boy since the primary schoo

85、l.We understand and help each other all the way.Therefore,whether there is real friendship between boys and girls depends on their attitude and sometimes luck.Are men smarter than women?The study shows that men are smarter and at the same time more stupid than women.Women are doing better in academi

86、cs than men maybe because the education system favors womens learning style.Some insists that men are smarter than women in general.As is often the case,boy students learn arts of science much better,including physics,math,and chemistry and so on.Whats more,many boys are naughty and dont spend much

87、time in their study,but they can still do quite well in exams.However,others hold the view that women are smarter.As is stated in the passage,women are securing more firsts and seconds,while men more thirds.Besides,much more girl students are admitted to universities than boys.In my opinion,there is

88、 not much difference between men and women in IQ,but they do have different learning styles.Generally speaking,its not their IQ but their hard work that really matters.Is it good for students to be given extra lessons?The passage tells us that recently American schools have made some changes to exte

89、nd students learning periods at school.It concludes that it is the educator not the time that has the largest effect on the students learning.The same thing happens in China.Students are being given more and more extra lessons during weekends and vacations.As we all know,everything has its own advan

90、tages and disadvantages.Extra lessons give us more chances to seek help from teachers and to learn systematically,which finally helps us do better in exams.However,too many extra lessons can also bring some weaknesses.It can make us more dependent on teachers.Besides,it will spare us little time and

91、 freedom to develop our own interests,do some outdoors activities and make friends.“All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.”We dont want to be dull boys.We want to develop different interests and skills as well as learning knowledge.The author in the passage told us a story that a 5-year-old bro

92、ther decided to donate his blood to save his sister who had a rare and serious disease though he misunderstood what the doctor said.Different people have different opinions about donating blood.Some people think it is a good thing.However,others dont insist on donating blood.As to me,I am in favor o

93、f the first idea.The reasons for my choice are as the following:First,when it is right time,that is,when somebody may lack of blood and almost lose his or her life,we will donate blood in time to save his life.Second,we all are in the same family,so we should help each other.Third,if we can make som

94、e safe rules about donating blood,there is no problem in donating blood.It makes us feel safe.From above analysis,I believe donating is a good thing.My opinion on readingThe passage is about what the writer thinks about reading.In his opinion,the main purpose of reading is for pleasure.On the whole,

95、I agree with the writer.Reading is of great use to all of us,particularly reading good books,no matter how old we are.First,reading really gives us a lot of fun.We may forget our unhappiness while reading.Besides,we can enlarge our knowledge and broaden our views by reading.We can also learn somethi

96、ng that cant be learnt in class.I think a good book is a good friend.In my spare time,I enjoy reading a lot of good books and magazines,such as Wisdom backpack,Readers Digest.The book that impressed me most is Story of My Life by Helen Keller,from which I have learned a lot about how to face difficu

97、lties in life.I hope that we young people can make better use of our time and read as many good books as possible.The passage mainly talks about different opinions on selecting“Three-Goods”students in schools.Some people believe that the practice should be stopped while others disagree.There are sti

98、ll some other people who suggest that new standards be included.In a way,what Mr Gu said sounds reasonable,but I dont quite agree with him.As we know,most students need their idols at school and“Three-Goods”students can set good examples for them to follow.Besides,selecting“Three Goods”can encourage

99、 more students to work harder and behave better.In our school,selecting“Three-Goods”students is a long-term practice.In the past,academic performance was paid more attention to,but now some changes have been made,especially the standards.The school not only focuses on the students studies but also o

100、n their behaviors and other abilities,such as arts and science.In my opinion,the practice of selecting“Three-Goods”students is necessary but a new system is needed.Only in this way will it have a better effect on the students.How to protect yourself in an earthquake According to the report,a strong

101、earthquake hit Sichuan province.Many people died,injured,or were listed as missing.Government began to help the homeless people.Earthquakes occur without any warning and may be so violent,but you can protect yourself in the majority of situations.(1)If an earthquake happens while you are watching te

102、levision,lie down and curl up in the fetal position next to a sofa,or large chair.(2)If you are in bed during the night and an earthquake occurs,simply roll off the bed.A safe void will exist around the bed.(3)If you are trapped in debris move as little as possible so that you dont kick up dust.Cove

103、r your nose and mouth with a handkerchief or clothing.(4)Tap on a pipe or wall so that rescuers can hear where you are.Shout only as a last resort.(5)Try to get into an open area away from trees,buildings,walls,signs and power lines if outdoors.It is reported in the passage that scores of people wer

104、e killed or injured in two separate fires.One happened at the Mingdian Western-style Restaurant in Dongguan City and the other in an apartment building in WenzhouCity.A serious fire may destroy a whole building or even a whole city,leaving people homeless.Whats worse,it can injure or kill people.Jus

105、t in a very short time,the property that you have struggled for a whole life may be burnt to ashes.In our daily life,taking precautions is of very great importance to prevent fires.At school,we can never use electrical appliances or light candles in the dormitories or classrooms.When it comes to hom

106、e safety,we should always remember to turn off the gas before going out.Keep a fire extinguisher available at any time at home.In case of fire,first of all you should keep calm.If possible,use a piece of wet cloth to cover your nose and escape the building using the stairs instead of the lift as soo

107、n as possible.Union is strength A father asked his sons,who often quarreled with each other,to break one stick and a bundle of sticks which were tied together to show them the importance of unity.I am deeply moved by the lesson the father gave,in fact such cases are often seen in our daily life.In o

108、ur school,there are always some basketball matches between classes.Teamwork plays a very important role in them.One team is sure to fail if its members dont play as a team,so the five players must be well organized and play together.Besides the players,all our classmates go and cheer for them.Even i

109、f our team loses the game,we all give our players encouragement instead of complaints.Its our support that inspires them to try their best and never give up during the matches.Therefore,as a member of the class,we should make every effort to make our class a warm family.In conclusion,we are strong w

110、hen we stand with one another and thus it is hard for us to be defeated,just as the fagot in the story mentioned above.Keep your promise The writer tries to tell us that once we make a promise,we must keep it and never break it.If we break it,well lose respect and friends.Please try to imagine:one d

111、ay you have an appointment with your friend to go somewhere and ask your friend to wait for you.But you forget it!Your friend has waited for you for a long time there and in the end he gets very angry.Whats more,you do not say sorry to him.After that,he no longer trust you and keep away from you,you

112、 must feel very upset.On the contrary,if you always keep your promise,the people around you will think it worth to keep friendship with you.So you will be able to make more and more friends.In my opinion,keeping a promise is very important.If you keep your promise,you will be able to let other belie

113、ve in you and you have more opportunity to lead to success.It you cant,you lose your chance to gain others trust and it will cause you trouble.Success results from hard work The passage mainly tells us that American people respect those who succeed through their own efforts,and that even those who a

114、re rich will try to do everything themselves and take pride in it.Having read this passage,I felt surprised that Americans though considered the wealthiest in the world,still focus so much on succeeding through their own efforts and I felt somewhat ashamed of some of my friends who never think of ac

115、hieving their goals by working hard themselves.Instead,they hold the view that if they are to succeed,their parents or relatives must help them in some way or another.Even worse,some girls think that marrying a rich man can help get what they want in life,like money,fancy clothes and so on.They neve

116、r dare to take up challenges and easily give up in face of difficulties.As far as Im concerned,success should result from our own hard work.What should be kept in mind is that only if we really work hard can we be well armed to face hardships of all kinds and succeed eventually.My view on food safet

117、y The passage tells us that the eggs suspected of being laced with melamine,which were added into dairy products and caused 4 deaths,have been removed by retailers and this raised further worries about food chain in China.The fake and poor-quality food has harmed greatly the interests of the buyers

118、and caused great losses to the producers.Moreover,sometimes the poor-quality as well as the contaminated food can cause great harm and even deaths to the consumers who pay a lot of money for it.Besides,this may also ruin the reputation of the enterprises,and some of them are even made bankrupt.There

119、fore,in my opinion,some drastic measures must be taken to prevent the production and sale of these poor-quality and contaminated foods.First,laws should be made to stop the production of these foods,and the producers and sellers of these foods should be punished severely.Second,our government should

120、 enhance the administration and supervision on foods.Third,people should learn more knowledge about food safety and refuse to buy any illegally-made or contaminated foods.Dear Sir or Madam,I am writing this letter to apply for the position of volunteer in 2010 Asian Games.From the news article,I kno

121、w the Volunteer recruitment for the Asian Games to be held in Guangzhou has launched,and my heroine Chen Xiexiahas registered as the first volunteer.As a high school student in Guangzhou,I feel very proud that our city will be the host city of 16th Asian Games.I think it will be a best opportunity f

122、or the whole Asian world to know the modern Guangzhou.Since I was born and grew up in Guangzhou,I know the local customs and culture very well.If I become a volunteer,I will show those foreign guests around Guangzhou,introducing the famous local food to them.Moreover,I have a good knowledge of Engli

123、sh and a good command of Japanese.So there will be no difficulty for me to provide language service to those foreign guests.Most importantly,I love sports very much and I am very warm-hearted.Therefore,I think I am qualified to be a volunteer for the Asian Games.I look forward to hearing from you so

124、on.Yours truly,Li PingDear Sir,Please consider me as an applicant for the position of the Senior IT Manager which you describe in the advertisement.I know you need a senior manager who masters a professional knowledge of JAVA programming and computer science and has an overall sense of managing and

125、making decisions.Relevant working experience and degree are also a must.I would be interested in exploring the possibility of obtaining such a position within your firm.I think Ill prove to be a real find for you.I received a Bachelor of Science degree in computer programming from University in June

126、,1998.Since September,1994 I have been participating in Professional Training Program as Programmer Trainee and have gained a great deal of experience in computer applications.Details of the academic courses I have taken are contained in the enclosed resume.Although I have a work experience of 10 ye

127、ars as IT manager in a high-tech company,I am willing to work hard and learn and challenge myself to a new height.May I have an appointment for an interview with you to discuss my qualifications in detail?Id very much appreciate the chance to talk to you and to get your opinion on whether I am quali

128、fied for the job you offer.If you can grant me the honor to work for your company as a secretary for two months,Id feel obliged.Thank you for reading my application letter.Im eager for your early reply.Sincerely,Li HuaDear Mr.John Smith,Thank you for your letter of 29th of September.I learn from you

129、r letter that youre dissatisfied with the poor facilities in our hotel,especially the air-conditioner and the bathroom,as well as the unprofessional behavior of our working staff.I am very sorry to hear that you had such an unpleasant stay in our hotel.I am investigating the points you raised in you

130、r letter and I will be checking the behavior of our staff here.This is the first time we have received a complaint of this nature and I am surprised and shocked at your experience.The Luxury is a five-star hotel,which prides itself on the quality of its service.I will be training staff on how to dea

131、l more professionally with our guests and I would like to take this opportunity to apologize for any inconvenience the poor service may have caused you.We appreciate your constructive comments,which allow us here at the Star to improve our service to our guests.I can assure you this will not happen

132、again.I am enclosing a voucher for a free 2-night stay at our hotel so that you can experience the very best of what we have to offer.I look forward to receiving you again at the Luxuary very soon.Yours sincerely,Li HuaA shameful lie The authors little son told a lie by saying that his sister pushed

133、 him and made his clothes dirty but she didnt.Finally he told the truth and apologized to his sister.This reminds me of my story which happened last Wednesday.Feeling tired and cold,I stayed 30 more minutes in bed after being awakened by the alarm.As a result,I was late for school that morning.Unfor

134、tunately the head-teacher was in the classroom when I arrived.He asked me why I was so late.I thought quickly and said that I had been caught in a traffic jam.He didnt scold me but just told me to be careful on the way.I couldnt calm down to study with mixed feelings of what I had done.Ive told myse

135、lf to be honest.Its obviously wrong to tell such a lie.But I was afraid of being scolded.Maybe the best way is to go to school on time in the future.Try to solve the problem actively The author tells us his unfortunate experience of losing his job recently.He hasnt told his parents about it because

136、he believes that he should and he can solve it by himself.This reminds me of my experience.Last term my English teacher asked me to lead my classmates through the reading exercises in the morning.However,when I did it,they began to talk,sleep or even eat snacks if the teacher was not in the classroo

137、m.At first I felt really depressed.But anyway I made up my mind to solve the problem actively.Maybe I couldnt help the students who had little interest in English,so I focused my attention on the students who wanted to improve.Once I started making connections on those students,they did improve and

138、the other students paid more attention to my lessons.Naturally I became a better teacher and we all made rapid progress in English.Self-esteem changes our life Inspired by the writers words,the former beggar turned into a wealthy and successful merchant.With this instructive story,the writer tries t

139、o show us the magic of self-esteem in our lives.Such successful stories can be seen or heard all over the world,of which my neighbor Mr Li is one example.Mr.Li was caught in a traffic accident and had one leg cut off when he was still a boy.He had been quite down for a while.However,his mothers word

140、s inspired him and he was determined that he should not remain so forever and that he should live with dignity and self-esteem though others may look down upon him.He found himself interested in computer and made up his mind to devote all of his effort to it.With many years going by,he gradually mad

141、e his fame in computer program designing.Now he is a well known program designer in our city.Such is Mr.Li,an excellent and successful example of self-esteem.Never give up The story mainly tells us how Xue Xiao survived the earthquake and got the name“Cola Boy”.The reason why Xue could survive and b

142、e remembered by all Chinese is that he didnt give up his life and always kept an optimistic attitude.Although I am much luckier than Xue without going through the terrible earthquake,I have to meet and conquer some difficulties in study and life.The high school where I am studying is boarding school

143、.Before I entered it,I had never lived alone without the care of my parents.Thus,the first week of boarding school life was almost unbearable.At that time my first thought was to quit the boarding life and go back to live at home.But after a period of adaptation and my painful perseverance,I gradual

144、ly got used to every aspects of new life.Meeting difficulties is process of pains and challenges,but conquering difficulties always bring us the sense of accomplishment which nothing can surpass.Therefore,I believe nothing is impossible to a willing heart.Value relationships We seldom have the right

145、 attitude towards the relationship which exists and is helpful in our daily life.It is not until friendship is away that we begin to know how to treasure it.As for me,I also have the similar experience,when I was in junior middle school.My deskmate,Lihua,who was once my best friend,transferred to th

146、e other school because of his parents job change.I was very sad for a long time.I wasnt brave enough to express my gratitude to him for his help with my English because I didnt have a good relationship after I quarreled with him over his breaking my favorite toy.At that time,I didnt forgive her alth

147、ough she apologized to me.There is no doubt that it was my own fault.I should have accepted her apology.Whats more,she didnt mean to break it.Not until Li Hua was leaving did I realize I was selfish.I can get another new toy but I cant get another Li Hua again.It seems to me that we should treat our

148、 friends with more forgiveness no matter what happens.Be confident all the time The author tells us her experience of how she overcame difficulties to join an orchestra successfully.She concludes that confidence helps to realize her dream.There is no denying that confidence plays an important role i

149、n our life.A convincing example that jumps into my mind is about English speaking.When I was a beginner,I was too timid and nervous to talk with my classmates in English.Fortunately my English teacher told me it was beneficial to speak English loudly in public and encouraged me to have a try.So I di

150、d.Needless to say,it brought me a lot of confidence and I made great progress.It was also with the same confidence that I won the first prize in the English Speech Contest held in our school last month.From what is mentioned above,we can safely draw the conclusion that confidence really makes a diff

151、erence.Therefore its wise for us to stay confident all the time.First aid knowledge required In the passage the author introduces a way to know about giving first aid by keeping DR ABC in mind,which are short for some specific steps to do first aid.As far as Im concerned,first aid knowledge should b

152、e known to us all.Take myself for example.I know a little about giving first aid and when emergencies take place,I know what to do instead of standing by at least.In P.E.lessons,teachers may tell us what to do when we get hurt,and which virtually helps us a lot.Thats where I acquire my first aid kno

153、wledge.Indeed,everyone is supposed to know how to give first aid.As many unpredicted accidents occur nowadays every day,we dont know what will happen next and absolutely things are not under our control all the time.In case tragedies should take place,we can learn to be careful to avoid them;but onc

154、e it comes to us,we must know how to deal with the situation.Thats why first aid knowledge is required.In a word,all of us ought to know first aid and carry it out precisely when it is needed.Only in that way can we limit the damage to the least degree.This passage introduces to us that FudanUnivers

155、ity allocate housing to sophomores according to the result of survey on students adaptability,with an aim to creat harmony in the dormitory.The practice has its advantages.As everyone can expect,it can creat a good harmony and favourable environment in the dormitory,since the stuents in the same roo

156、m share similar temperaments,hobbies,habits and so on.This will largely decrease the unavoidable conflicts caused in daily life.However,if we students have the chance to choose whom to live with,we will certainly choose someone who we can easily get along with,and this will limit us to develop a ver

157、y important ability,that is,dealing with people with different personalities and characteristcs.And this is vital in our future life.In my opinion,it is unnecessary for schools or universities to adopt this dormitory arrangement plan.In fact,they should allow students chances to get along with peopl

158、e of all kinds,and provide students with some practical instructive courses on communication skills at the same time.A poor boy got help from a young woman.Years later,he saved her life as a doctor and didnt charge any money for the treatment as a payment for her kindness.After I read the story,I wa

159、s shocked by the kind-hearted strangers.How great they are!This story reminds me of a similar experience.One day,on a bus,an old lady suddenly fell from her seat.At this moment,everyone on the bus got up from their seats and ran up to her.Having checked the situation of the lady,we decided to send h

160、er to the hospital.So the driver drove the bus to the hospital and all of us stayed with the lady till the doctor announced that there was nothing serious with her.In my opinion,the modern society is in great need of kind-hearted people,because there are so many people in trouble.As long as everyone is given their love,this world will become a better human.
