范文一：

Peer pressure is a term describing the pressure among the people who are similar in age. Peer pressure is like a double-edged sword. Sometimes it may be a motivation, but sometimes it may lead to much anxiety.

Peer pressure is around us everywhere and most of the time. I am a person of great enterprise. So often do I call on myself to study and work harder than others when facing so much keen competition. I try to grasp every chance to strengthen my abilities and to increase my experience. However, peer pressure sometimes annoys me. Pressure sometimes is like a rope holding me so tight that I feel hard to breathe. Every time at this moment, I will listen to music, sing to myself and relax myself by doing some physical exercises. What is more, I may chat with my friends and we will motivate each other to change the pressure into power. Most importantly, I will set proper goals according to the present situation so that I take a right way. In these ways, I lead a balanced and meaningful life.

As to peer pressure, positive attitude is important. Everyone has his or her methods to cope with it. For example, they may try to get away with it by doing things like playing chess, going shopping and so on. But remember, everything depends on attitude. So do not be depressed and lose your confidence, just smile and take it easy. I believe I can! So do you, don’t you?

Peer pressure is a kind of pressure given by someone who is at the same age as you are, such as, your friend, classmate, your roommate etc.

You may often feel peer pressure in everyday life. For instance, your roommates ask you to play basketball while you are studying in the dormitory. Then they go out, leaving you alone. At that moment, you will probably feel lonely and regret not having gone with them. Also, you may sometimes hesitate to do something, because you can not ignore suggestions from people around you, for they are your good friends who you care about much. In my opinion, we should make judgment on our own after taking positive suggestions into consideration and disregarding the negative ones. This is what I usually do when I get into trouble.

How do we deal with peer pressure? How can we walk away from hesitation? The answer is self-confidence. If we are confident of ourselves, we will know what should be done and what should not.

范文三：

Peer pressure means the pressure from their classmates or schoolmates. Facing others’ hard work and good performance in academic and other aspects, many students feel great pressure.

Then, how to cope with peer pressure? First and foremost, y ou can take a careful look at your present level and set a pract ical object. You needn’t always compare yourselves with those on the top and just make your efforts towards your object. Then, under peer pressure, you shouldn’t feel depressed and discouraged. On the other hand, you should make it your efforts for harder work. Finally, if you find pressure is beyond your control, you’d better turn to professional psychological guidance.

As a college student, we have no way to avoid peer pressure, so we should try our best to find the way to do with it well. Because of my focus on my own goal, I have no time and energy to think about the pressure.

范文四

Peer pressure refers to the pressure exerted by the people who are at the similar age. This pressure is very commonplace among the young.

As a student, I can't avoid peer pressure. So I try to figure out the way to do with it well. For one thing, I clearly know peer pressure is not necessarily harmful to us,

for I believe in myself. For another, I set my own practical goal and know well my position among the peers. Because of my focus on what I am doing, I don't have time and energy to think too much about the pressure. So I'm seldom obsessed by it.

In my opinion, if your peer pressure is out of control, talk to someone you trust. Don't feel guilty if you've made a mistake or got into trouble. Turn to the person you can rely on, such as your parents, classmates or teachers. They can help you feel much better. In this way, you enable yourself better prepare for more challenges in life.
