About Doing Physical Exercise 关于体育运动

Physical exercise is very important to a happy life. There is a famous saying: "Life lies on exercise." Although you will not necessarily die without regular physical exercises, they' II certainly help you live longer and more healthily.

Exercise is good for us to build up our bodies and improve our health. It lets the heart beat faster than usual, and then helps enlarge the blood vessels to protect us from heart attacks. Exercise can also contribute to the development of our ability to response quickly. For example, playing table-tennis can make you respond faster.

In a word, exercise is helpful, important and necessary.

How to Keep Healthy 如何保持健康

例1

The desire for good health is universal. Especially nowadays, the possession of good health is regarded by nearly everyone as vital to a happy and successful life. Only if you are in good shape can you expect to live comfortably or work efficiently.

Then, how to keep healthy? First, enough time should be set aside

for sleep, rest and doing exercises. Secondly, you must break bad habits

that damage your health, such as smoking and drinking too much alcohol. Finally, be sure to have your physical check-up regularly.

As for me, I have always been taking care to have proper sleep and relaxation. In my spare time I like running, swimming, and playing table tennis. So, I can keep fit and have a good life. 例2

Nowadays, more and more people know the importance of keeping

healthy .Without a healthy body, we can do nothing .For me , there are three main ways to keep healthy.

First, it is necessary to keep a balanced diet, which is the basic

of good health. It is better for us to have more fruit and vegetable every day. Secondly, it is important to take regular exercise, such as swimming, jogging and so on. Last but not least, it is essential to keep in a good mood. Relaxation and entertainment are ways to renew our

spirits and release our stress.When we make healthy habits a part of our everyday life, we are bound to keep healthy.

Wealth and Health 财富与健康

As a joke goes, the young try to accumulate wealth by sacrificing their health while the old are desperate to restore health by wealth they have owned. The fast-paced modern society places its members in a dilemma: if one wants to possess great wealth, he will have to keep busy all the time, which would always endanger his health. Wealth seems to be too attractive to resist, for the industrialized society prices almost everything that one needs to survive. Health, however, cannot be earned in the way wealth is obtained but can only be consumed. Once health is

neglected, it can be hardly regained in the future. Therefore, the question of wealth and health should attract great attention from the public so that they might make the balance.

Is Stress a Bad Thing? 有压力是坏事吗

Are you afraid of stress? Today I want to talk about stress. Let me share my opinion with you.

Some people regard stress as a monster. They are terrified of stress. But other people think stress is a good thing for them. In my eyes, although much pressure is put on me, I’ll receive them

as a gift. At first, stress encourages me a lot. It seems to tell me I have to work hard. Being lazy will let me get low marks. Secondly, proper stress develops my self-confidence. I still believe I’ll do better than others. Finally, if someone gives me a lot of stress, it shows he cares for me. I’ll work harder to make him happy. I always have much stress on studying. Well, I’ll have many

ways to deal with i t. If I feel tired, I’ll take a deep breath,

play the piano for a while or walk my

dog. Doing these things makes me relaxed.

At last, I want to say if you have so much pressure, finding proper ways to deal with it is the most important. Don’t be nervous.Don’t be afraid of it! Believe yourself! Then you will find

everything is very easy.

Smoking Is Harmful 吸烟有害

It has been estimated that smokers have made up half of the population in China. And the smokers are becoming younger and younger, even including some middle school students.

Nowadays more and more people have realized smoking can do harm to people’s health.

However, some people still enjoy smoking. Why? Because some of them think it is a kind of fashion; some think it is of great fun and some others think that smoking can refresh themselves.

In fact, smoking is a bad habit. It can cause a lot of diseases. Meanwhile smoking is a waste of money. Besides, careless smokers may cause dangerous fires. Smoking is harmful and it is not only bad for smokers themselves, but also bad for non-smokers. Therefore, I hope all the smokers can give up smoking for themselves and also for the people around them.

Health and Eating Habit 健康与饮食习惯

As we all know, we are what we eat. Therefore, it’s very important for us to develop healthy

eating habits. However, bad eating habits are still very common among us students. Some of us often go to school without breakfast; some like to have snacks; some others are particular about food and still some eat or drink too much. All these bad habits will surely do harm to our health.To keep fit, we should have various healthy diets, which generally include proper amounts of fish, meat, vegetables, fruit as well as main food. Besides, we’d better have meals regularly. In my

opinion, we should try to develop healthy eating habits to build up

a strong body. Only in this way can we have enough energy to study better.

关于环境

Water Pollution 水污染

例1

Today, I read a piece of news about water pollution in Taihu Lake in a newspaper. But water pollution exists not only in Taihu Lake but also

in some other rivers, lakes and seas in our country.

Without any doubt, water pollution is a serious problem today. Rivers, lakes and even oceans all over the world are being polluted by garbage and dangerous chemicals. Oil and other chemicals can kill fish and make water unsafe for drinking.

More and more people have realized how serious the problem is. Our government is doing its best to take measures to fight against pollution. We've done a good deal of work, but there's still a long way to go. We must keep on fighting until we find ways to protect the environment from being polluted, and do away with pollution. We are sure that we'll win the battle. Goodbye, water pollution!

例2

Water pollution has been a serious problem. With the development of industry, water pollution is becoming more serious now. The polluted water not only kills fish, it is also harmful to our health. Many people

get sick because they drink the polluted water. In some rivers the water is so dirty that they can even kill plants.

People can't live without water so we should fight against the pollution. Our government has taken measures to protect the rivers against pollution. People also realize the seriousness of the pollution. We should stop using harmful things and keep the water clean.

I wish it is not a dream that in the near future we can have clean rivers again.

Plant More Trees 种更多的树

1. 树是一种重要的自然资源;

2. 树有利于环境的改善;

3. 让我

们多种树。

Trees are important resources. They provide us with wood, which is not only an important building material, but also indispensable in making paper, furniture, matches and many other useful things. Without tress, we would perhaps still be living in caves, and our life would be very miserable.

Trees also do good to our environment. They not only make our world greener and more beautiful but also produce oxygen which makes the air we breathe fresher and better for our health. What’s more, trees help maintain ecological balance, which is very important to our survival.

Fortunately, trees, unlike other resources, can be “reproduced”. While coal and oil can be burnt up and exhausted, trees will never be used up because we can always plant new ones. And when we plant trees,

we know that we are helping make our world richer, pleasanter, and more beautiful to live in. So let’s plant more trees.

关于成功

The Way to Success

内容需包括以下方面:

… 1. 每个人都试图在事业上获得成功;2. 获得成功的要索;3. 我坚信

Everyone tries to achieve success in his/her career. But some

finally attain their aims while others fail. Why, Some continue their cause to the end through long period of hard struggles, but others are easily disappointed and stop halfway.

Strong will, perseverance and diligence are the three essentials of success. A man of strong will and perseverance always has an inflexible spirit. He sticks to his cause no matter how tough it might be. Life is short and we have too much to do. Without diligence no one can achieve anything.

I believe that where there is a will there is a way, and that success belongs to those who can make constant efforts. Don't be afraid of life. Believe that life is worth living, and your belief will help create the fact.

Failure Is the Mother of Success(失败乃成功之母)

Everyone may fail in his life. But different people treat failure differently. Some are afraid of failure, while others welcome it. I think failure is a good thing.

Failure can be a good teacher. It can reveal that where we need improvement. So we know where we should invest more time and energy, and what strategy to take. In this way, failure teaches us to be better the second time around. As they say," The more you try, the more you'll succeed."

No one can keep from failure. If we can turn failure to our advantages, we will succeed sooner or later.

My View on luck

1. 一些人把成功归于运气;

2. 另一些人把运气看作是成功的结果;

3.我的

看法。

When talking about one's fate, some people think that luck is one of the important factors that determine one's success. When one manages to do something, people would say, "You have good luck."While one fails, people would say, "You are unlucky". But some people hold a different views, they believe that nothing but diligence is the mother of good luck. People can gain success only by their hard work and efforts. On

the other hand, good luck doesn't occur all the time. To my mind, I believe that success comes from diligence and hard work.

关于金钱

On Money/ Money is Not Everything

Money is regarded by some people as the most important thing in life. It is even regarded as the symbol of wealth and social position. For example, with plenty of money a man can do whatever he wants to. He can afford expensive cars and luxurious houses, and he can travel around the

world and visit as many interesting places as he wants to. In their eyes, money is everything in life.

In my opinion, money is not everything. Money can both benefit

people and do harm to them. On the one hand, we can't deny that money is useful. We need money to buy food or a house or pay our education cost. Money can make us live more comfortably. For example, with more money, we can help others and take part in more social activities and receive a good education, thus increasing our knowledge and developing our skills. On the other hand, some people try to get money by dishonest means, for example, they often cheat and gamble, even rob and kill people. Sooner

or later, they will be punished by the law. Money can bring them nothing but misery.

城市和乡村

Living in a Big City

Recently, thousands of people are rushing into big cities to settle down. I think that people who move to big cities must enjoy the advantages of city life. I am certainly a supporter among them. If you live in a big city, shopping centers, restaurants and recreation centers are always within easy reach. Therefore, it's very convenient to buy various goods. In addition, people in big cities can participate in different activities more often than those living in the country.

However, crowded big cites are being faced with many problems. The most serious ones are "Traffic jam", "housing condition", and

"pollution". So we should pay more attention to the environment and public facilities. Only in this way can we live in great comfort.

My View of the Country Life and Town life/ City Life and

Suburban Life

我对城市和乡村生活的看法/ 城市生活和郊区生活

内容需包括以下方面:

:城市生活比乡村生活好;2. 你对这种观点的看法;3. 你的1. 有一种观点认为结论。

Some people believe that town life is better than country life. I don’t agree with this. Town life can be convenient to us in many aspects. For example, you can move around easily, shopping can be more fun in a big shopping mall and you can enjoy a more colorful

nightlife .But there are also many disadvantages. It is much nosier than in the country .Air pollution is more serious .It is not easy to park your car .It costs more to live in town .To name but a few is enough. Therefore, I prefer country life .

Where to Live

1. 有人喜欢住在城市

2. 有人喜欢住在农村

3. 我的看法

Where to Live

例1

Some people prefer to live in the big cities. Life in the city

enjoys many advantages. Take education for example, usually schools in

the city have better facilities and teachers. Secondly, life in the city is very convenient because shopping centers, restaurants, cinemas and supermarkets are always within easy reach.

But some other people prefer to live in the countryside. Compared with the life in the city, life in the countryside is simpler, more peaceful and with slower pace. People can get closer to the nature and enjoy the beauty of nature.

From my point of view, as far as I’m still studying and working, I think life in the city is more

suitable for me because I can have more opportunities in the city. Furthermore, I want to make use of the better facilities in the city to enrich my life. After I retire, I’ll consider moving to the countryside to live a healthier and simpler life.

例2

Living in the city or in the country is really a problem for some people because both of them have strengths and weaknesses.

Living in the city, undoubtedly, will have more convenience than living in the country. There are good infrastructures, convenient traffic, completely health service, different kinds of shops that meet your different needs and various means of entertainment. You could live in a modern flat and enjoy a cozy life. However, there also exist some common problems, such as, pollution, noises, traffic jams.

Compared with living in the city, living in the country may avoid above problems. Besides,

usually, the environment in the country is much better. But another problem appears. What seem to be the advantages for living in the city have become the disadvantages for living in the country. Inconvenience

is the biggest one among all of these. So people who face to make a decision must have a good balance of both sides.

To me, according to the situation of China, I prefer to live in the city. An important reason is that the development of city is far beyond that of country. Some countries, especially in remote areas, are still very poor and backward. The life there is still very tough and difficult. Nevertheless, nothing is absolutely, some people still would rather choose live in the country, it is really up to yourself. Remember, happy and comfortable are the purposes.

选择住在城市还是乡村对于某些人来说是一个真正的问题。因为不管住哪里各

自都有利

有弊。

住在城市，毫无疑问，肯定比住在乡村要便捷的多。城市有好的公共设施，方

便的交通，

完善的健康服务体系，各种各样的商场来满肚你不同的需要和各种娱乐设施。

你可以住在一

个现代的公寓里享受着舒适的生活。然而，住在城市也有些共同的问题，比如:污染，噪音

和交通堵塞。

相比住在城市，住在乡村可以避免以上的问题。而且，通常，住在乡村的环境

要比城市

好很多。但是其他问题又出现了。似乎住在城市的优点成了住在乡村的缺点。其中不便捷就

是众多问题中最大的一个。因此，人们面对选择时，必须要考虑双方的平衡。

对我而言，根据中国的现状，我宁愿选择住在城市。最重要的一个原因是城市的发展要

远远比乡村的发展发达。有些乡村，尤其是偏远农村地区，是非常贫穷和落后的。那里的生

活非常的艰苦和困难。然而，任何事情都没有绝对的，有些人宁愿选择乡村，这完全取决于

你自己。只要记住，快乐和舒适是其目的就好。

City Life and Suburban Life

In recent years more and more homes are being pushed outwards as the activities of business, government and pleasure tend to be concentrated in the centers of the cities. Although most people are reluctant to move to the outskirts of the cities, I feel like living in the suburbs.

It is true that the city can provide much convenience and entertainment, the very reason why people can't bear to part with city life. But the cost for the privilege of living in the city is also high. What's more, there is more gas and noise pollution in the city, which is full of petrol fumes and toxic gases, torn by the roar of buses and taxies, and thronged ceaselessly by great crowds. In contrast, living near the countryside one can enjoy the clean atmosphere, the closeness

to nature and the quiet, peaceful surroundings - the essentials of a healthy life. Although living in the suburbs one may suffer a little discomfort brought about by the necessity of traveling miles to work every day, it means nearly nothing when thinking of the high cost and heavily polluted environment of the city.

The new suburban life is fast becoming a predominant pattern of living in most cities; and with the improvement of traffic and the perfection of services, it will prove to hold great superiority over city life.

城市生活和郊区生活

近年来越来越多的家庭因为商业活动的发展而被推到城市的外围。政府和娱乐中心占据

着城市的中心。尽管大多数人不情愿搬到城市的郊区地带，而我感觉住在郊区其实也挺好。

城市可以提供更多的便捷和娱乐，这也是为什么很多人无法忍受没有这些的生活。但是

住在城市的生活成本也是很高。而且，城市里人口拥挤，公共汽车、出租车汽油燃烧后的有

毒废气和噪音的污染更加严重。相比之下，住在郊区既可以享受清洁的大气，接近自然地宁

静环境-这些事健康生活的本质。尽管住在郊区可能遭受每天乘车往返中旅途的一点点不舒

适，但是考虑到生活成本和城市环境的严重污染，这点不舒适就不算什么了。

新的郊区生活将很快成为大多数城市的主流生活方式。随着交通服务设施的完善提高，

住在郊区将有着城市生活得优势。

Which means of transportation do you prefer?

In a modern city, there are many means of transportation, such as subway, taxi, bus and so on .But my favorite means of transportation is by bike.

First, riding a bike is good for keeping healthy. I spend one hour riding a bike to my office on my working day, and I think it is a good form of physical exercise .Secondly, it is money-saving .Recently, the private car drivers always complain the price of gas is higher and higher, but if you ride a bike, it will cost you nothing. Thirdly, it is beneficial for protecting the environment, so it is a “green” fo rm of transportation.

Therefore, although it has some disadvantages, I like riding a bike best.

Interest Is the Best Teacher 兴趣是最好的老师

例1

I was not able to get high marks when I was in primary school. Teachers didn’t like me

because I was not a good student. Mother considered me as a bad kid. They hurt me by thinking I am a retarded child. But I am no fool. Almost all of my paintings were showed in public. Many famous artists had praised me for my paintings. They called me "little genius". And dad was on my side too. He encouraged me to do what I liked and what I thought was proper. He told me that

interest is the best teacher; Dad did what he could to develop my talent fully. I believe that interest together with hard work will make me a successful artist in the near future.

例2

In our life the best teacher is our interest. If we do something

with great interest, we can not only save a lot of time and energy but also do a much better job. On the contrary, if we start doing something without any interest, we may feel bored very soon, let alone do a satisfactory job finally.

Since interest is of great importance in our study, work as well as our daily life, it is very necessary for us to arouse our interest in

things. We are expected to discover the interesting sides while doing something before we develop our interest gradually in it. If we have had great interest in doing something, we need to make a good use of it and exploit its advantages to the full.

In conclusion, all of us need to be directed by our best teacher—interest.

我们生活中最好的老师是兴趣。如果我们做一些事情有很大兴趣，那么我们不仅可以

节约大量的时间和精力，还能干得很好。相反，如果我们开始做一件事便没什么兴趣，我们

很快便会感觉非常无聊，更不必说最后能把事情做好了。

由于兴趣对我们的学习、工作和日常生活有着重要意义，我们有必要激发我们的兴趣。

我们在干事情的过程中就应该发现事情有趣的一面，逐渐培养我们的兴趣。如果我们本来就

对干一件事有很大兴趣，我们则需要好好利用我们的兴趣。

总之，我们每一个人都需要受到我们最好的老师—兴趣的指导。

Parents Are the Best Teachers 父母是最好的老师

内容需包括以下方面:

1.父母是最好的老师;

2.解释其中的原因;

3.重申观点。

We will all have many teachers in our lives. They include not only our teachers in school, but our classmates and friends, our colleagues

and our bosses and, most importantly, our parents. Our parents are our first and best teachers because they teach us the most important things in life, teach us continually and always have our best interests at heart.

First, our parents begin teaching us the moment we are born, and

what they teach us in those early years are the most important things we can learn. They teach us how to get along with other people. In addition, they teach us how to be independent and how to learn. Of course, they also teach us language and many other practical skills. Second, our parents are always teaching us whether we realize it or not. They teach both in words and by example. Finally, our parents are devoted teachers who always want the best for us. Their purpose for teaching us is to prepare us for a good life in the future.

Throughout our lives we will learn from many people, for there is something that we can learn from everyone we meet. However, no teacher can take the place of our parents because they are our most devoted and best teachers.

Honesty Is the Best Policy 诚实乃上策

There is an English proverb which says(saying)“Honesty is the best policy.”It signifies the

importance of honesty. What are the benefits of honesty,If you are honest to others，they will be

honest to you in return. When you are sad，they will comfort you. When you are in trouble，they

will help you. There is no enumerating the evils of dishonesty here.

In a word，a dishonest man

will be looked down upon by others and(be)regarded as a public enemy.

Honesty is better than dishonesty. Firstly, honesty is one of

traditional virtues of China. We should regard it as our motto. Secondly, honesty will bring not only happiness but also respect to you. On the contrary, dishonesty will cause many serious results. On one hand, your

d ishonesty will mak

e other people distrust you. People begin to doubt your words and actions. It is a punishment to you. On the other hand, dishonesty dose harm to other people, even our country.

In a word, honesty is the best policy. With the development of society, credit system will be founded. People will get benefit from

their honesty. The society without honesty can’t develop stably and rapidly. We should abide our social law and regulation and contribute to our country.

East or west, home is best. 金窝银窝不如自家的狗窝

What’s the best place in your heart? If I ask you where the best

place is in your heart, perhaps you may say it’s Zhongnanhai, the White House or the Kremlin Palace. But I’ll tell you that it’s home rather than any one of them. B ecause a proverb says well that “East or west, home is best.”

That’s why? Because home is the port of our soul and the only one place that we are looking forward to going for the whole life. Because I think home means all to me and anybody else. It’s

home where we can go whenever we are hurt or tired. It is also home where we can enjoy the feelings of parents, brothers and sisters. It’s home that that fights against wind or rain whether in the day time or at night.

In a word, whatever we do and wherever we go, home is the best place that we can go forever.

Should the University Campus Be Open to Tourists?

大学应向游客开放吗

内容提示:

1(校园是否应对游客开放，人们看法不同。你的观点;

2(阐述你的理由;

3(结论，重申观点。

It is true that many university campuses, especially those of the famous ones, have recently become the new tourist attractions.

Some people are quite in favor of the campus’ opening to tourists while others are opposed to it. The opening of campus will stimulate the tourist industry, but the easier access to campus will lead to some

a ccidents or safety problems which will interfere in students’ life.

In my opinion, campuses can be open to tourists once a week, say, on Saturday or Sunday. This suggestion, I believe, is quite workable because it could kill two birds with one stone. For one thing, campuses could attract many tourists on weekends, thus boosting the tourism. For another, restricted opening of campus will beneficially narrow the gap between campuses and the outside world. Furthermore, this will also
