1What’ s your favorite color?

White:

I love the color white because it’ s so clean and pure. When I wear white, I feel very peaceful

at heart. But I have to pay attention because it gets dirty so easily. I think a white Tee Shirt

and blue jeans are the best combination.

black;

think black is very mysterious and sophisticated. For a girl, it looks very sexy.

And when you wear black you look thinner, because the color is very slimming

Blue:

It ’ s the color of the sea and the sky. It’ s also the color of jeans.

So I guess in a sense, it’ s a young and free color.

Red:

Red is the hottest and most enthusiastic color you can ever imagine.

And it’ s colorthe of China.

Green:

The color green reminds me of the nature and the environment.

It ’ s the color of Spring when all lives come back around us.

So wearing this color, I feel very close to nature.

2Do you like the same color now as you did when you were younger?

Same:

Well, yeah.

’ t change.

I ’ m a kind of person that likes something and doesn

And I think the colors of black and white are the most classic.

I ’ m a simple guy, so I like simple colors.

Changed:

I guess it changed. When I was young, I was childish, so I like bright colors, such as light yellow

and shiny.

There are so many people in the world, about 8-9 billion. But the ones that really matter are

few. But now, I ’ m a 20 years old young man, I re mature,’mandmoso I like more understated

colors, such as dark blue or deep green.

3 What can you learn about a person from the color they like?

I think you can tell about a person ’ s personality by his or her favorite colors. For example, if a

person lov es the color red, he ’ s very-goingoutand not afraid to show his

feelings and emotions. But if a person loves black, for instance, she maybe very reserved

and mysterious. She may not want to share too much with others.

4Do any colors have special meanings in your culture?

I think the colors of red and yellow represent our home country, China,

because they’ re the main colors of the national flag.

The color red also means happy occasions, such as wedding.

I know that the color white means wedding in the west.

Yet, the it means death in China.

Surprising, huh?

our family members. Most importantly, we can enjoy the time without any inteference.( a

little bit time consuming.)

But, it is time effetive, senice, we can get more dieing experience, enjoy the specialty of the resturant and the ethnic food, even feel the exotic culture and tradition that are different from our country.

7multiple choice and the essay

question multiple choice:

it is very logical, and during that process, we can consolidate the specific details and the

knowledge that we learn from the class. and we can use some examnation skills like the

reasonable guess or the rational guess. But the students can cheat in the exam, so it cannot show the learning result overall.

essay question:

in this method, we can have more academic freedom, we can combine all the specific

details and develop our own opinion, even form our personal style. this method will reinforce

our originality and the creativity. But, to be successful in this method we have to memorize

and write so very much, it is really a little bit stressful.

10What changes took place in education in your country over the past decade?

Answer:

Well, everything is changing, so is education.

The most important change that took place over the past decade is this.

10.1 increased admission

It seems to me that more and more people are now able to go to college while in the past

the competition was much stronger.

College admission is opening up, and this is a direct result of the state policy.

The consequence is that many students who have not reached the level of

university education are also allowed to sit in the college classroom, therefore the

quality of education has been declining.

10.2 master ’ s degree / overseas education

It is because this problem that an increasing number of people are pursuing more education

after college graduation.

These options include master’ s program and possibly overseas education, just like what I

doing right now.

We’ re fed up with the boring routine life in college, and we’ re fighting for a better future for

ourselves.

3. increased tuition

Unfortunately,not every child would have the opportunity to continue their education after

college. Why? Simply because going to school is so costly.

The tuition has been almost tripled over the past decade and this presented serious financial

pressure that some families cannot handle.

So some of my classmates have to drop out just because their families ran short of money.

Human tragedy!

I ’ m lucky. My mom and dad are making enough money, so I can even go to college in Canada. But

I ’ m not taking this for granted, I’ ll be eternally grateful to them.

4. Private training institution

Wherever there’ s need, there’ s a solution. As more families realized the importance of making

education investment in their kids, training demands has been soaring over the past 10 years.

Private training institutions such as New Oriental flourished.So as long as you want you will

always find a place to study and a class schedule that fits you. Opportunities for personal

improvement are many.

将来 50 年教育会发生什么变化?

Question:

What change do you foresee in the next 50 years?

如何答”将来”题目

Wow. 50 years is such a long time.I don ’ t even know if I will still be around in half a century

time. So this question is kind of challenging. Nobody knows for sure what’ s gonna happen in the

future, right, because the future is unpredictable. But, let me try to answer this question.

1. Education will be a social welfare without any charges.

Maybe this is just a Utopian Dream. But I strongly believe, as our society moves forward,

education will eventually become a social benefit. Families will not have to pay for education of

the kids, because when the kids receive good education,the society will be benefited as it

receives a continual wave of talents. It is only fair that the society take out some of the tax

revenue and use it on education for young people. Since tuition is no longer a problem, more and

more people can finally all go to school. This is what I call“ educational equality” .

2. Education will become less time-consuming.

One day I suddenly realized that each and every one of us spend 20 years or so on education. 20

years! That ’ s crazy. Those years are probably the best time in our lives. So if you ask me what

change do I want to see happen in 50 years time, I ’liked to see education short. I believe

education can become so efficient and well-designed that we can finish our education from ABC

to master ’ s degree in just 10 years time. So by the time a person is 16, he or she will be ready to

start living.

3. Education will become a technical evolution. 技术的进化

Maybe I ’ veseen too many science fiction movies, but I believe science and technology will revolutionize the way we receive education. And this will happen during the next 50 years. You

see! We can put all the knowledge of human kind into little computer chips, and we can open a

socket to our, I don ’ t know, brain. So every time we want to use a particular knowledge, we just plug it in, you know, like a USB disk. Wouldn ’ t that be cool?

4. Science and technology will make it possible for all countries to share education resources. We often say that the world is flat now. What makes it flat? Science and technology,

tele- communication, especially internet. So I wouldn ’ t be crazy toinimaginethefuturethat50 years, with the help of internet video conferencing, we can bring the image of a professor of Harvard, Oxford, Cambridge, you name it, into the classrooms in China. Therefore, internationally famous professors and ideas can be shared globally.

必背口语作文：（一定要背诵，加油吧！）

1法律规则的重要性：

people tend to rebel against laws and regulations, because we want to have more freedom.

However, we cannot deny the necessity of rules. Without laws, there will be no order in society.

And I ’ m not an expert on laws since I’ m not a law student.

But I found“ the prohibition of smoking in public places”an incredibly good law.

I don’ t know exactly when it was put into practice,

but I guess France is the first country in the whole wide world to make such a legislation

that smoking is banned in all public places all over the country.

This is a great law for the individual and for the state.

I mean, come on, think about it. Smoking is so harmful in so many ways.

It causes lung cancer to millions of people every year,

and it ’ s totally uncivilized to smoke in public places because other people will be affected by your smoking since your second-hand smoke is everywhere.

After smoking, your clothes stink of cigarettes.

And it’ s not polite and professional if you go to work covered in the smell of smoke.

And smoking is the reason for many fire accidents and disasters every year.

(这一段也可以直接用作“不良习惯话题”)

Therefore, such is a good law.

I don’ t know when such a law will be made in China.

But once it is enforced, my country will be a much cleaner place.

I know it ’naturals for people to hate any new law since the law brings to people limitation, confinement and restraints.

Yet, hey, someone once said, “ Youcan only truly enjoy freedom after you have experienced discipline.”

只有受过纪律约束的人才知道自由的真正乐趣. (283 words)

2最喜爱的运动：

My favorite sport is without a shadow of a doubt basketball.

And, funny story, I met a NBA basketball player for the first time in my life at an airport when I

wasn’ t that familiar with NBA.

I looked at him and did n’ t know who he wa. Now I think about it, it was Kobe Bryant.

Wow! I had no idea! What a waste of opportunity! I mean, I

could i didn ’ t. Ooooh, I hate myself.

’ ve asked for an autograph. But

I ’ m a huge fan of the L.A. Lakers. There

To start with, it ’dynasty in the forming.Some

’ re too manythis. reasons for

people say that Shaquille O’ nealand Kobe

Bryant, THAT was a dynasty!

But I’ m not a big fan of Shaq; I love Kobe.

Being a guard, he’ s all around.

He scored 81 points back in 2006 in a game against the Toronto Raptors.

In 2007, around the same time of the year, he scored more than 50 for four consecutive games.

And this year, he’ s taking the Lakers all the way to the Final after beating San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference Final.

And before that they beat Utah Jazz.

We often say that there’ s no easy game in the West. And Kobe and his team came all the way. That could only mean one thing-- They ’ re unbelievably good.

I play basketball whenever I can. And I even imitate some of Kobe’ s moves.

I ’ m notthat tall, but still, I can jump shoot, do the lay-up, and if the hoop is low enough, do

a slam dunk.

Being a guard is like being a captain of a team.

You initiate every attack, you decide the offense strategy. And when you give out assists, you

helping other teammates;

when you ’ re hitting three-pointers, you’ re encouraging the whole team. When you do a-uplayin

a fast break, you’ re pissing off your opponents.

The more you play basketball, the more you find there

’ s more to basketballphysicalthan just a

It has a mental state to it.

How to be selfless, how to contribute to the team instead of just thinking for yourself, how to

work with others

--these are also questions we have face in real life.

The NBA has a catch phrase "i love this game". It is more than i can say about it .And this year

i found it was changed,

now it is where the amazing happens! Dave Stern is absolutely a genius!

bas provides me more than the excercise, but more importantly the inspiration and encouragement

in my life! I love it!!

3最喜爱的老师：

It ’ s about teachers in our lives.

No doubt, teachers are important as they provide not only education but more critically, life guidance.

We should always feel grateful to our teachers.

Talking about my favorite teacher, there ’nos ne other than Mr. chen, our first mathematics teacher

in senior high school.I remember back then, I was so young, so immature, and frankly, a

little bit stupid because I was so lazy at learning. I didn ’ t realize that learning was for my own future. And Mr. Chen totally changed that.

His writing on the blackboard was so clean and beautiful that every time he wrote on the blackboard

we enjoyed looking at it so much. Naturally, that increased my interest in learning the subject. His

teaching methodology was so versatile that we never felt bored.It was so fun!

He was very different from the other teachers, because he looked very thin,and if he was

any thinner, he wouldn't exist.

And he was unbelievably responsible for us.She treated us as her own children.

He impacted my life greatly since it was he who showed me that not working hard when you can

is a crime.

I remember he said to me one day“ We’ re not foolish, we’ re not stupid,and we need to fight for our own future with blood, sweat and tears.”

Someone said,a mediocre teacher tells;a good teacher explains;a superior teacher demonstrates;and a great teacher inspires.

To me he's the greatest teacher I’ ve ever known.

4 音乐 Music：

I love music. I love every last one kind of music.

From Jazz to Classical, hip pop to blues, Rock and Roll to Country music.

Different music genres create a variety of moods for you.

Sometimes, a piece of music can complement a movie so well that you remember the movie and

the song all together.

I can remember back then, when I f irst saw the movie“ Titanic” , I was deeply moved by the story.

and the song sung by Celine Dion-- “ My heart will go on --made”a great impression to me.

it won the Oscar for best original score for a motion picture that year and was played all over the

world.

Every where you went you would hear it.

Celine Dion sang it so well that you feel like it touched the soft-spot of your soul.

Even today, almost 10 years later, it’ s still considered one of the most beautiful songs of all time.

I think the song communicates a message that love is universal, and it transcends social

classes and family backgrounds.

And true love is worth dying for.

The movie “ Titanic ” won many Oscars that year.And I think this song played a crucial role in the

movie ’ s success.

(200 words)

5 电影（ A Movie: E.T）： .

I go to the movies almost once every month, and I have an extensive DVD collection at home.

So, it’ s safe to say I’ m a big movie buff.

In a sense, movies educate us, inspire us, and provide more life experience to us.

My favorite movies are many.

And the one that I want to talk about here is E.T., the ExtraTerrestial by Steven Spielberg.

I know this movie is very old, more than 20 years I think.

But when I saw it last year, I was still quite moved by it.

It is about an Alien, E.T. and his friendship with some kids on earth, how they tried very hard/every

effort to get E.T. home ，

how in the process they became very good friends,and how E.T. learned to speak English very fast.

This unusual friendship between people of different planets is so unique and so pure.

The warmth in that movie makes me feel great, even now the world is with a lot of problems.

It ’ s a kind of movie that will put you in a very good mood.

And I couldn ’ t help shedding tears when E.T. had to go back to the mother ship and when the

little girl said goodbye.

I was moved by the pureness of their friendship. It restores faith in people ’hearts about true

friendship.

And it’ s definitely a movie to watch, a movie to collect and a movie to remember.

6 奢侈品（ Luxury）：

In many countries and cultures, owing something of luxury is considered a symbol of wealth and

status.

Such luxuries may include a private boat, posh villas, diamond watch and the list goes on.

I like expensive things because I believe you get what you pay for, and higher price is usually

accompanied by superior quality.

I ’ d like to think that one day I can have enough money to afford luxurious things in life.

The first extravagant thing I’ d like to own is probably a car.

A Lamborghini may be cool.

Since I saw it f irst on the magazine and later in the movie“ Mission Impossible III” , I couldn loving it.

The exterior and the interior are both of the world’ s highest class. It’ s one fast running m It ’ s born for speed.

In addition to the excellent performance, it provides much convenience to the driver too，

GPS, automatic air-conditioning, DVD system, hi-fi system,you name it.

Another reason why I love it is the sturdy bodywork of the car.

Lamborghini makes their cars really strong so when you st, you’restilldrivingfeelquitefa safe.

I guess it won’ t surprise people when they discover the price of the car is unbelievably high.

It will cost you an arm and a leg to buy it, about 4 million RMB. I don’ t think I will be able to

it in a short time.

However, I believe people are driven by dreams.

’ ll be successful enough to own one.

As long as it ’ s a dream for me, one day I (257

7 电脑（ Computer）：

Of all the things I have and had, computer is probably the most important thing in my life.

As the world is changing fast, technology is getting more and more cutting edge.

Computers are indispensable in everyone’ s life.

And there ’ s no need to stress on the significance of computer skills. Computers make things easy

and bring about increasingly new possibilities into our lives.

Just look at what computers are capable of doing these days.

I mean, Wow! Talking about state-of-the-art!

Internet brings people closer ，and makes the world smaller than ever before.

People can easily talk to each other through on-line chatting programs, no matter where they

are.

With a webcam you can see each other’ s faces. And the good news is, it’ s almost free. Plus, internet- shopping is revolutionizing all people’ s lives.

On-line shopping websites like E-bay and https://www.360docs.net/doc/342850023.html, are getting popular among more and

more people.

I got my first laptop back in high school as a prize for my good grades. It was a gray DELL.

I used it to collect information about sports and entertainment, beautiful pictures and movie

clips.

I read English news on line, listen to English music and watch English movies both on and off line.

So, if there’ s one thing I love the most, and one thing that benefits my study and life the most, it

absolutely my computer.

8 理想住所（ Ideal Home）：

My idea of an ideal house is a place with an excellent natural surrounding.

I mean I don’ t want to live in the city, with all the hustle and bustle of the city life.

I want to be able to enjoy some peace and quiet when I go home.

So my ideal home should be in the country.

You know, lots of trees, maybe a river, fresh air, clean water, fewer people?

Make no mistake about it, I’ m not going to live a farmer’ s life.

I want my interior dé cor to be posh, trend-setting, and full of technology.

I want to have a fully-equipped study, desktop computer, laptop computer, hi-fi system, and

many more appliances.

I want a big living room with windows all the way from the ceiling to the floor, all around.

So there will be a lot of sunshine and beautiful things to look at.

My master bedroom should be spacious, so it will reduce the pressure of mine.

I move a lot in my sleep so I want a king-sized bed.

I want my interior to be colorful. Just like my life.

Full of passion, full of energy, and full of possibilities.

I don’ t know when I can own it. But as longas I strive for it, one day it will be mine.

(227 words)

9 梦想 Dream：

This is a very intriguing question.

Dream is an excellent thing. It motivates you and keeps you going; it gives you courage and strength. And I believe whatever dream you have, one day it will come true.

I saw a movie recently; the name is The American Dreamz.

In that movie, everyone wants to become a hit singer through a talent show.

Not everyone will win the ultimate title, but the struggle, the hard-work make the exciting.

I was inspired by that movie, because I got power from it.

Right now, in China, there are also many talent shows like that.

And many young people have already made their dreams come true.

It ’ s exciting to see their lives now. And I can’ t helpyselfwantingtoo. that for m My dreams are many.

I want to own a worldwide company, and be a really good CEO,

just like Steve Jobs of Apple Computer.

And I love cars, I love driving.

I hope one day, I can own my sports car, a Lamborghini, maybe. Yeah! That

I realize that in order to fulfill my dreams, I will have to go through a difficult process.

But hey, I’ m young. I have strong determination and perseverance.

I will beat whatever difficulties that may come my way. Impossible is nothing.dream

’ s cool, isn’ t i

I will turn the impossible into possible.

Dreams will come true as long as you believe in it and in yourself.

10 一件重要的事An Important Thing in Life / An Important Person around me：

Of all the things that happened to me, one thing last year was of the most significance.

My grandma passed away last year. She was 85.

In my life, she played an irreplaceable role.

When I was young, my parents were extremely busy.

It was my grandma that took care of me all the time.

She attended to all the details in my life.

It wasn’ t easy looking after me, I’ ll tell you that.

When I was 8 months old, an unfortunate accident happened to me.

I was burnt by hot milk. Can you imagine?

My grandma took good care of me.

I got better so fast because of her care. I owe so much to her.

From the time I was born until I became a grown-up, she had always been by my side, loving and caring.

Her passing away made me felt great emptiness and loss.

I ’ m still adjusting to life without her.

I ’ m learning to be strong and learning to take care of myself.

In a way, her passing away changed me, helped me to become more mature and responsible.

Up until now, that has been the most important thing that happened in my life.

I absolutely can’ t forget it, NOT for ever.

11 学校My School：

In the early part of our lives, we re gonna have’ to go through a number of schools to complete

our education.

Of all the schools that I’ ve been at, my college, liaoning University played a most important part in making me who I am today

First things first, it’ s a huge comprehensivetywithuniversimorethan 26,000 enrolled students.

And you can find all majors here, environmental engineering, information technology, English,

you name it.

The campus is quite big, with more than 500 square kilometers.

And it almost feels like a small city with all the infrastructure a person may need for daily life. Accommodation, food court, supermarket, sports ground ?The teachers that I had were all responsible for their students and conscientious about their job.

There are many foreign teachers here who are willing to help us in and out of class.

No doubt, my English improved because of them. My university is my second home.

And the four years I studied in it were also the time during which I grew up to be a mature,

and independent-thinking person.

I found out who I was, who I am and who I want to be in my university.

In this sense, the teachers I met, the information I was given to, and the environment I was living in

at my university really influenced my life greatly.

12选课问题： chose the most difficult classes, even it means that you cannot get a very good score.

first of all, grade is very important, but it is only part of the enjoyment and the achivement you

can get from the calss.

The reason why we go to class, is we want to be infulence by the professor and the students,

so to improve ourselves.

the students that go to the most difficult class are usually the a s students. You will be

puting yourself among the elicits.

students of top intellegence, and be around them you will enhance your requirment of yourself. Sequencely and gradually, you will make

steady progress.

And the professor teach the most difficult class has to be the best professor at the school.

And because only the top students attend the such classes, the professor will not hold back

in teaching.

He will be more free in challenging the students intellengece.

Being in this class, you will have the opportunity to dig up your potential,

and you know what, you are much better than all the students that go to a less difficult class.

As most people are intimidated by the most difficult class, so very often, you find very few

people in the class.

What happen next, your professor become more avilible to you, you will get more personal

attention from him or her,

So, even though you will get a b in this class, but still, you are learning much more than in the

lower classes.

13电视利弊：

https://www.360docs.net/doc/342850023.html, is probably one of the best inventions of mankind.

We sit for hours in front of the TV watching a variety of channels, you know glued to the tube.

And be happily entertained.

2.The TV show I like the most is an American Sitcom on NBC called“ Friends”. The show is so big worldwide, and fans are in millions.

To me it’ s entertainment and English learning because they speak English so cool.

3.Our family got cable very early, so one day I was watching this commercial on TV about this

show.

I didn ’understand it because the people were speaking so fast, but I heard all the audience

laughing.

So I said to myself this is funny. I need to watch it. So I bought some DVDs. I think it was in the

year 2002

4.The show lasted for 10 years. It’ s basically about six very different friends staying close for an unusually long time.

They grew up together, and they were always there for each other. It m.’ s very war 5.I like the show because it shows me that people can genuinely care about each other.

We live so lonely nowadays especially in the city.

And this show provides some kind of a friendship utopia that we can take shelter in.

That kind of friendship is what everybody wants.

I learned true friends should listen to each other, give each other understandings and

supports and respect the choices each makes. (246 words)

Our life is just like an dreamlike gift favored by god. So if our dreams die, our life will be ended. In addition, there are millions of cases that showed us impossible is nothing, and I believe I can turn the impossible into possible.

all the details of my life. So my childhood is absolutely light-hearted. Second, I was totally out-going and open-minded when I was a little boy, so I got a lot of friends to play with me and

live my childhood better. We go to play basketball together, we go to swim together, so I got so

much beautiful memory to share with my guys. Finally, I was really lucky to find out what I love and figure out what kind of person that I want to be.

follow to lead my life is really beneficial to the development of my life. And all of these are derived

from my wonderful childhood, so this period of time in my life is really unforgettable.

The One about 电视利弊

电视的好处 :

Television is a convenient source of entertainment, and a comparatively cheap one. People will

not have to pay for seats in a movie theater ； and let ’s face it, movie tickets are still more costly.

Television keeps one informed about current events and updated with the latest development of science and politics. Television, together with the many channels now, cable TV provides,offers an endless series of programs, which are both instructive and entertaining.A lot of television programs introduce people to things they have never thought of before and have never heard of before.

Watching TV is much more entertaining than in the past. For one we have many more channels

than in the past and the size of the TVs is just getting bigger and bigger. 10 years ago, yo u’ ll be lucky if your family had a 29 inch color TV that looked like a hideous wooden box. But now, 70 inches plasma or LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) TVs that look no thicker than a dictionary can be easily affordable. And, at the same time, the programs on TV are just getting increasingly

entertaining with the cutting edge technologies used in editing. Even the used-to-be-boring

commercial breaks are now full of high-tech flavor. Sometimes, I would just wait to see my favorite

TV commercials by Adidas, Nike, Pepsi, etc.

Television made many literary masterpieces popular as they are adapted to TV series. And it

provides special instructive programs such as language teaching, sewing, painting, cosmetics, etc.

Programs on Discovery Channel, National Geographic Channel, and the like, popularize science

among TV viewers. People all over the world are no longer distant and isolated from each other.

The most distant countries and the strangest customs are brought right into one -room. ’ s sitting So in this sense, TV

is tearing down national boundaries and cultural barriers and bringing us into

a global community of sharing and understanding.

When people are the most busy, when they work the hardest, we need some sort of passive way

of relaxing ourselves. And TV comes in just handy. And the traditional flaw of TV programs not

being able to be watched again is more or less solved todayas people are using Tivo or Apple

TV to book and record their favorite programs by means of a Cable TV Network or iTune Store.

电视的危害 :

Television is a great time waster. When you’ re glued to the“ tube ” , you don’ t even realiz much time passes by idly. You find the more you slough as a couch potato, the less things you get

done and the less willing you’ re in getting things done.People who don’ t watch TV are happie than those who watch it because television leaves the viewers nothing to spare, nothing left.

In a way, when you receive information without judgment, you ’ rebeing brainwashed and

manipulated by TV programs, especially TV commercials.Television is to blame.Children

nowadays find no points in learning to read and write largely because they ’ addictedre to the

kind of picture and sound communication TV presents. And a lot of parents use TV as a pacifier

for their children. T hey place the kids in front of the TV and don’ t care whether they’ re watchi utterly rubbishy commercials

or scenes of violence and sex as long as the children are quiet. This is selfishly irresponsible.

Television obstructs people ’communications because many programs require absolute silence

and attention and no one dares to open his mouth during a program. Television is undoubtedly a

great invention, but one of the main controversies about its effect on modern people’ s liv that viewers are not selective enough. When you allow all kinds of information, useful or

meaningless, to bombard you, you lose initiative in the process. You sit for hour after hour and

you get very receptive and very unquestioning and it seems to me the important thing in life is to

be active, to do things, to think things and to be as creative as possible, and television, in a way,

prevents all these. Television is doing irreparable harm. Before we let this-eye monster”“ intoone

our homes, we never found it difficult to occupy our spare time. We used to enjoy civilized

pleasures, we used to have hobbies, and used to entertain our friends and be entertained by

them. We used to read books and listen to music and talk to our family. But now we rush home

just to gulp down our meals to be in time for this or that program. We have even given up sitting

at the table and having a leisurely evening meal, exchanging what happened to each and

everyone of us during the day.I think in a way TV is making our minds dull. There e ’ s a limit to th amount of creative talent available in the world. Everyday, television consumes vast quantities of

creative genius in us. When millions of people around the world watch the same program

(sometimes a poorly choreographed one), the whole world becomes a village, and society is reduced

to a pre-literate condition. We become utterly dependent on the two most primitive media of communication: pictures and spoken words. And we become so lazy, we choose to spend a fine day

in semi-darkness, glued to the tube, rather than go out into the world.

批评对年轻人有好处吗？

The one about 批评年轻人

没好处 :

First off, criticism brings pressure to young people. To wake them up and feel the reality of

competition in the society and the hardship they have to face in order to survive. This is good;

but sometimes, giving young people too much stress can lead them astray. In the worst case of

scenario, the youth may act out their pressure by doing something irresponsible and cynical, such

as drug abuse and proneness to violence. Young people are usually counter-reactional to their

parents constructive advice. They tend to rebel against their parents’ wish. Their parents may one way and they would go exactly the opposite way in order to show their identity and their

disobedience to their parents’authority. Sometimes too much criticism will deprive the young

people of their self-confidence in life. They become doubtful of their ability and this is harmful.

I think the western idea of education for young people is always to encourage them, to build up

their confidence in order to dig up their potential. To recognize their achievement and overlook

some of the small demerits.And through this, young people become more sure of their life and

will cope with difficulties in life with more certainty.This is without a doubt beneficial to young

people as it improves their chances of becoming successful and useful. Young people are great at

imitating their parents. So when parents set up an example, they follow suits. When a parent

constantly criticizes a kid, the child begins to think this is normal and common practice. And

when he or she grows up, he / she will perform the same thing on his or her child. As a result,

this bad habit will continue into the next generation, carrying with it bitterness in the relationship

between parent and child and loss of confidence in life in the next generation.

An unhealthy parenting tradition is formed in the family. That Young people,’s tragicespecially.

those with higher Emotional Quotient, often feel insulted, as hamed and insecure when they’ re

criticized. They understand their own feelings and are more acute to others opinions’about

them. They begin to think they’ re unwanted and useless when they receive too much negative

comments on their behavior.Such young people will thrive in a healthy and positive

environment; and could wither under pressure and negative karma.

有好处:

When young people receive criticism they ’ re absorbing experience from the critic. This will be beneficial

to them because they ’ retold of what ’ rights and what ’wrongs by a senior fellow.

When young people get over their heads and become overambitious and arrogant, we need

some sort of a wake-up-call to make them sober and alert to the reality again. Criticism is right

there to help them out in this category. Life is not just sunshine and roses, the bitterness can be

provided by some harsh words. Instead of hurting the young person’ s feeling, if controlled nicely, criticism can serve as a tool to restore the balance in our mind, and return us to what we really

are.

True words hurt, but they’ re notwithstanding helpfulYoung. people lack self-control. They may

do what they enjoy excessively, such as internet games, drinking, watching too much TV or playing

too much sports. We need someone to discipline them and help them plan their time.

So in this sense, in-time criticism can prevent the young from squandering time. We only live in

this world for an average of 75 y ears or so. If criticism can save you from wasting your time, it

just as saving part of your life. Young people should get used to criticism in the early part of their

life because, very likely, later in their life, say when they there may still’berecriticism30or40,.

If parents never criticize a kid, even when he or she has done something wrong, this is being

over-protective.

And the kid, consequently, will be spoiled by the over-indulgence from the parents. Is that really

responsible for the kid’ s development? When the kid becomes touchy at other’ s criticism, then he may lose a lot of chances for progress. No one would dare approach him with the right advice,

just because he’ toos sensitive about it.The ability to accept criticism, as a good habit of

self-improvement, should be formed when a person is still young. The benefit of it will go on

increasing throughout his / her life. Criticism, as a reality-check, will make the young people more

aware of the seriousness of their problems. And some youth may develop their potential rapidly

under proper amount of criticism. They begin to take things seriously and take matters into their

own hands. Under such a feeling, they begin to think,“ How can I solve this problem more

creatively.” And in the process, they may even hit a big idea. If I remember correctly, the founders

of Youtube, were only trying to solve a little problem in their life —sharing videos among

international students. And the result is a multi-billion dollar business belonging currently to the

biggest search engine in the world,Socrates“Googleonce”said,. a life without self-reflection is a

not worth living.Criticism is such a self-reflecting tool.It ’withouts -a-shadow-of-a-doubt

beneficial to young people

补充：电影片段及台词的应用（看看吧，不强求）

上课的时候讲到的片断是下面这两个，

上课没记下来的在这里回顾一下吧：

第一段

Demi Moore Woody Harrison Robert Redford

“ Indecent Proposal《不道”德的交易》开场部分

Man:

“ Losing Diana was like losing a part of me. I thought nothing could change the way we felt about

each other. I thought we were invin cible.”

Woman:

"Someone once said, if you love something badly, set it free.

If it comes back to you, it was yours to begin with;

if it doesn't, it was never meant to be yours.

I know one thing. I was David's and David was mine."

第二段

Juliet Roberts Richard Gere

"Runaway Bride"《逃跑的新娘》求婚一段

“ guaranteeI that we'll have tough times. I also guarantee that at some point, one of both us would want to get out of it.

But i also guarantee that if i don't ask you to be mine, i'm gonna regret it for the rest of my life. Because i know in my heart, you're the only one for me.”

这样精彩的片断，可以灵活变化引用到自己的口语或作文中。

比如说谈到实现出国梦想：

Well, now going abroad for further study is my dream. I've had this dream for sometime, and

i know it's not easy to achieve.

I guarantee i'll have tough times. I also guarantee that at some point i would want to get out of

this dream.

But i also guarantee that if i don't make it come true now, i will regret it for the rest of my life. Because, i know in my heart, going abroad for study is the only dream for me.

And someone once said, if you love something badly. Set it free, if it comes back to you, it

was yours to begin with;

if it doesn't, it was never meant to be yours.

So even if overseas study doesn't come ture. I'm going to take it easy. Maybe this way, it can come true for me soon.

呵呵...
