1 .Are we too dependent on computers?

Nowadays computers have become an important part in our daily life: we contact with our friends through the QQ, we write many essays by clicking the keyboard, sometimes we also use the computers to do business......computers have changed our life in many aspects. However, here comes the problem: are we too dependent on computers?

It is astonishing to find that lots of people always make many mistakes in writing with a pen, some of them even lost their inspiration because they have got used to copying essays from the computers. There is no doubt that computers have done great contribution to improving our quality of life, but we can never neglect the importance of maintaining our initial ability to do things with our own head. One day computers would be ubiquitous in every where, but if we become too dependent on them, we would suffer a lot. Imagine that in a case when you are required to write a paper with your pen, but you found yourself cannot remember the correct spelling of several words, or you are not capable to get your own ideas without searching information from a computer,that would draw you into anxiety.

We are all too dependent on computers nowadays, t his is not a good thing which may add to our indolence and laziness. So now that we have already realized that, it is time for us to do something to change it.

2 what makes a fine student

Whenever we talk about fine students, we will usually attach some qualities to them: they should be diligent, polite to others, get high marks in their studies, etc. In fact, all of us want yo know what kind of quality that makes a fine student. Nowadays, our standard for a fine student have already changed.

In the past, students who just do well in their studies can be called fine students because it seems that they have done something remarkable that not everybody can. However, with the development of the time, our society have stepped into a new period which requires more and more from everyone, thus a fine student must improve themselves in all aspects.

In my opinion, as a student, learning is our first duty, so a fine student should first do a good job in his study which would require him to be responsible and diligent. The reason why I emphasize the importance of the sense of

responsibility is because I think nobody can get rid of it, only if we hold a sense of responsibility, can we get to know what to do and how to care about people beside you.

Speaking of diligence, there is no doubt that a fine student should be

diligent even if his IQ is more than 100 because we stress more on a student's attitude than his cleverness. What's more, students who are diligent can always persistently stick to their goals and they will finally make great progress and succeed.

So I think the sense of responsibility and diligence is that what makes a fine student, as a responsible student, he wouldn't neglect the importance of his study and the development of himself ; with diligence, he wouldn't miss the chance to get improved in his study, so he can finally be a successful man.

3 Why should we attach importance to both theory and practise? Why should we attach importance to both theory and practise? It is really a worthy problem for us all to think of. In human society, we have accumulated

abundant experience from various of activities. Later, we learn to systematic those experience and then summarize it into theory.

Theory is based on practise. Human beings have gone through a long period of history. We first konw how to get fire through trying, we developed a series experience from all kinds of attempts, and these practise became the origin of the theory. Without practise, the theory is just like a tree without roots, which can never exist stably for a long time. That is to say, practise is the source of theory and provide it with vitality.

Theory, in turn, serves practise. Theory influence our mind, its existence affect our knowledge to the world, ideas of the life, and the senses of values, It gradually becomes the guide of our behavior. Evidently.

the correct theory always lead us to step forward yet the wrong theory can mislead us. In other words, we should put it to an important place that we need develop correct theory to conduct our practice.

We can only improve the quality of students the sense of innovation, innovation in order to cultivate the ability of students to continue learning. The continuous development of using this method in order to cope with the times, the rapid growth of knowledge industry trades often transform the situation. We should recognize that to develop students' creative thinking ability, the correct way to deepen the reform of English teaching, English education modernization.

English teaching other science are nothing special function of the alternative culture creativity.

English is an important carrier of culture, has a distinctive cultural and therefore precipitate a profound historical customs and cultural traditions. In teaching English, history, customs and cultural traditions of the negative factors that form a deep-rooted traditional concepts of education, enclosed teaching model and the rigid mindset, seriously hindered students' creative spirit and creativity. To effectively improve the quality and capability of the

students' English, it is necessary to eliminate the impact of negative factors, and establish a new teaching concept. Teaching perspectives about teaching objectives determine the use of the choice of teaching content, teaching methods, teaching evaluation standards. Ability creation ability to be reflected in the English language teaching, it depends on whether English teachers with suitable teaching concept.

Family Education

Since ancient times, family education was concerned by people, but it was used as a kind of academic study in recent years. People's education is a system of education works, here includes family education, social education, collective(school) education, that are interrelated together. Family education is the foundation of all education. Throughout history, we can see a good family life education benefits people, not good family life education naturally bungled people.

First, family education is the beginning point of educating people. Family education generally refers to the family of parents and adults in the education process of young children. Their educational goal should be: a child into the community to accept the collective education (kindergarten, school education) to ensure the child prior to physical and mental health development, as a kindergarten, school education in future. The focus of education is moral education mainly among how children develop good moral character and behavior-based, behavioral habits, including: lifestyle, work habits, study habits, teach children how to learn "Being a human".

Second, a good family education can purify the soul of children. Parents must first clear the direction of education and the national interest, consistent with the principle of people's demands, not to their children as private property, to establish a state religion for the child's thinking, and correct educational purposes. During 21st century, people should have good

ideology, noble morality, sound psychological qualities, positive spirit of cooperation with others, strong adaptability, hard-working all-round development of a new generation. If no such group of 21 high-quality builders is very difficult to complete this great post, with such qualities is not something that can do it, and good family education is a prerequisite for cultivating high-quality people.

Third, Children will let themselves go without engagement to be anyone they want and to do anything they want. With age growing up, children come into contact with people outside the family. All stuffs from society will come into the child's perspective, so adults' taken to isolation technique is infeasible, because the TV show and movie will continue to reflect from different angles with the reality of today's society, some is positive and the other is negative. Children, especially young children lack a rational capacity to distinguish right from wrong, but they has a keen feeling of ability than adults. Parents should help children understand right and wrong place to identify community so that they specifically feel that truth is the bright side, and also appreciate that the ugly is despicable. For example, today the information is full of our lives and children can get information easily. The information includes political situation, scientific and technological progress, the various elements of everyday people and situations, from which you can learn a lot of knowledge and understanding of domestic and foreign affairs, but also, it includes violent, obscene absurdity. "Most researchers have examined families with infants, school-age children, or adolescents. Clearly, more research is needed that examines the specific contributions that couple dynamics and satisfaction, parenting practices, and parental depression have on child behavior problems during the toddler years" (Linville, Chronister et al. 245). Parent's behavior plays an important role in educating children and affect children for depression. For these reasons, parents should have the responsibility to take care of children's lives and also their mind. Parents should address these issues in a timely manner, improve the ability of the child's identification, but also

any indecent their own behavior, as children establish a positive image, optimizing children's minds, to prevent children make mistakes, and even law and discipline. Family is the cell of society. With healthy cells, it can be a sound body. If cells are sick, the body can cause disease. On all accounts, a good family life education is good for children, and not good family life education naturally bungled children. School education, social education, family Education, of these three, family education is the least likely to ignore the fact that parents are children's first teacher, is the first contact with the child, so it shows the importance of family education. But not only a home education on it, it is the attitude of parents towards children's education. Parents should pay attention to it. Family education teaches their children learn to love themselves, and love others. It is to give individuals more emotional things, such as behavioral approach is the formation of world view. A good family education is important for children.

篇五：English Essay

Housing Problem

Housing problem is closely related to population. Some of the big cities in China are now crowded with an ever increasing population. Naturally, one of the most serious problems incurred is that of housing.

As far as the cause of housing problem are concerned, many factors are involved in the first place, with the rapid increase in population, the lack of housing is becoming more evident than ever before. Many old houses have been knocked down to make room for new apartment buildings, which complicates the housing problem for the time being. In the second place, despite the ever-increasing high-rise buildings, the provision of living space still falls far short of demands. Because the society is advancing, city-dwellers long for spacious living. They look forward to decent dwelling places which can protect human dignity. All these factors result in the stress of housing problem.

Various solutions have been suggested. But there seems to be a drawback to each of the solutions. The traditional free allocation of dwellings to the needy adds to the governments burden, while paid allocation brings an equal burden to the average man. The moving of urban residents to the suburbs may ease housing problem in the inner city but gives rises to a traffic problem. The best solution I think is to put the birth rate under control. But we still have a long way to go.

Managing Your Student Loan Debt

The cost of higher education continues to rise. Unfortunately, it's rising faster than the supply of grant and scholarship funds. This means that students today are leaving school with greater indebtedness than ever before. And yet, student loan defaults are at an all-time low! This can only mean that students today are better informed, and better prepared to take positive steps toward financial responsibility. managing your student loan debt

Responsibility toward your student loans doesn't just mean staying out of default. It also means staying out of delinquency, keeping your account current. This may not always be easy. But we think these steps will help:

* Know Your Rights and Responsibilities.

* Know Your Repayment Options.

A loan from the Federal Family Education Loan Program (FFELP) offers many more options for repayment than most forms of credit.

* Keep in Touch.

Stay in close contact with your lender or servicer.

* Keep Your Credit Cards Under Control.

Or, better yet, avoid them completely until you know you're on solid financial ground.

* Make a Budget.

And make sure that it includes your monthly student loan payment.

学术诚信

Direction: Plagiarism in academic studies is becoming a major problem worldwide. Study the picture carefully.Your essay should include the following points:

1)a description of the illustration showing your understanging of the symbolic meaning;

2) your understanding theissue;

3) suggest counter measures.

You should write about 160~200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2.

In the illustration provided, authors of what should be unique articles peer over at their colleague’s work. Perhaps they are looking for inspiration, but more likely, they are stealing ideas and using these ideas as their own. It appears from this pictures that everyone is guilty of this crime; there is no strat or finish to the cycle of plagirism . Academic plagiarism is a problem that is not limited to one or two schools in the word. One can only imagine that some form of academic is present everywhere. This process can occur innocently enough. One writer is looking for information on a certain topic and does not cite his work properly, the orignal author is forgotten, and credit is not placed where it is due.

I believe that this issue is a very serious problem in universities today. The administration should do everything they can to stop plagiarism. This could include lecturing students on how to properly quote references, and also raising the penalities for those who are found guility of plagiarism.

Daily Stress

Temporarily, stress can sharpen your eyesight, give you more acute hearing and make your body produce more of the white blood cells which destroy invading bacteria and viruses.

Problems arise when you experience a number of big changes or events and become overstressed. About 10 percent of us have low stress tolerance, so the beginning of stress can happen rather quickly. Prolonged overstress can make you ill. Are You Overstressed?

If you are showing physical symptoms of overstress, it's time to take action,

Don' t rely on quick pick-me-ups like caffeine and alcohol. These may make you feel better temporarily but won't get to the root of the problem.

Do give yourself a break. Every morning make a list of the things you would like to get done during the day, then cut off the bottom half of the list. You'll get those things done tomorrow, next week or even next month. Feel relaxed about organizing yourself.

Don't choose this time to make a big change to your living environment. Postpone

shifting house or renovating until you' re feeling better.

Do keep your blood sugar steady by eating small, frequent meals instead of a few large ones. Eat complex carbohydrates like cereals, rice, bread and potatoes. These are broken down slowly by the body, releasing sugar over a long period of time.

Don't say yes to every request for your time and energy.Learn to say no when it's

necessary.

Don' t postpone exercising.

Even if it's just moving around your living room to music that you love, getting your body active will help the healing process.

Remember: Less stress will lead to a longer, healthier and happier life. 每天的压力

偶尔的压力使你的目光变得敏锐，听觉更加灵敏，使你的身体产生更多的白细胞以消灭入侵的细菌和病毒。

在你经历了一系列的巨大变故或事件后，你的压力过大时，问题就出现了。我们之中约有10％的人抗压力能力低，因此在遇到压力时，压力感很快就产生了。若你长期处于过大的压力下，你就会生病。

你压力过大吗?

若你的身体出现了压力过大的症状，应及时采取行动；

不要依赖诸如咖啡因和酒精等使人迅速恢复精神的东西。它们可能会使你暂时感觉好一些，但不能从根本上解决问题。

务必给自己以休息的时间。每天早晨列出你一天内想要做的事，然后把它的后半段砍掉。把那些事情放到明天、下周或下个月去做。在安排你的生活时应感到放松。

不要选择在此时(备感压力时)让你的生活环境发生巨大的改变。在你感觉好些了以后再搬家或装修房子。

不要暴饮暴食，要少吃多餐，务必使你的血糖保持稳定。吃一些诸如谷物、稻米、面包、土豆等碳水化合物。它们在体内缓慢分解，长时间地释放糖分。

不要对占用你时间和精力的每一个要求都答应下来，必要时，要学会说“不”。 The Rewards of the Professions

The probability that any person should ever be qualified for the employment to which he is educated, is very different in different occupations. In the greater part of mechanic trades, success is almost certain; but very uncertain in the liberal professions. Put your son apprentice to a shoemaker,

there is little doubt of his learning to make a pair of shoes, but send him to study the law, it is at least twenty to one if ever he makes such a proficiency as it will enable him to live by the business. In a perfectly fair lottery,those who draw the prizes ought to gain all that is lost by those who draw the blanks. In a profession where twenty fail for one that succeeds, that one ought to gain all that

should have been gained by the unsuccessful nineteen. The counsellor at law, who, perhaps, at near forty years of age, begins to make something by his profession, ought to receive the retribution, not only of his own so tedious and expensive education, but of that of more than ten others who are never likely to make anything by it. How extravagant soever the fees of counsellors at law may sometimes appear, their real retribution is never equal to this.

Those professions keep their level, however, with other occupations, and notwithstanding these discouragements, all the most generous and liberal spirits are eager to crowd into them. Two different causes contribute to recommend them.First, the desire of the reputation which attends upon superior

excellence in any of them; and, secondly, the natural confidence which every man has,

more or less, not only in his own abilities, but in his own good fortune.

To excel in any profession, in which but few arrive at mediocrity, is the most decisive mark of what is called genius or superior talents. The public admiration which attends upon such distinguished abilities, makes always a part of their reward;a greater or smaller in proportion as it is higher or lower

in degree. It makes a considerable part of it in the profession of physic;a still greater perhaps in that of law; in poetry and philosophy it makes almost the whole. 职业的回报

任何人在接受相关教育后能否胜任工作，由于行业的不同而千差万别。就大多数技工行业而言，成功几乎十拿九稳；但文科性职业则很难预测。假设你让儿子跟鞋匠做学徒，他学会做鞋当然毫无疑问。但若送他去学法律，让他对这一行业驾轻就熟并借此谋生，成功率只有二十分之一。在一次非常公正的摇奖中，中彩者所赢份额应当等同于摸白票者所输之全部。某种职业，只有二十分之一的成功率，那惟一成功者所获得的应当是十九位失败者本可获得的全部。律师或许年届四十时开始在事业上小有所成，他理应得到回报，这不仅是他本人繁重昂贵的教育投入的回报，也包括另外十几位可能一事无成的同行的投入。律师的收费似乎过高，但他们真正应得的报酬却远非如此区区之数。

然而，有些职业同其他各行保持一致，尽管有诸多不尽如人意之处，仍有许多慷慨大度、胸襟开阔之士渴望跻身其中。可能有两个原因促成这种取向：首先是对杰出才干及随之而来的名誉的强烈渴望；其次是每个人与生俱来或多或少的自信心，不仅相信自身的能力，也坚信自己能走好运。

Goals

There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-term and long-term goals.

Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities,which we can apply on a daily basis.Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, our long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.

The medium-term goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.

Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.

目标

目标有三种：短期目标、中期目标和长期目标。

短期目标通常着眼于眼前的活动，人们可以以天为单位，逐日实施。这样的目标可以在一周或不到一周、或两周乃至数月内实现。人们不应忘记，没有坚固的基础就没有坚固的建

筑物；同样，不去扎扎实实地实现短期目标，我们就不可能在实现长期目标上有大的作为。在完成短期目标之后，我们应当标明日期，并在已实现的目标基础上规划新的短期目标。 中期目标以短期目标为基础。中期目标可能涉及一个学期或整整一学年，甚至可能延续数年之久。无论何时你只能一次向前迈一步，绝不能使自己失去信心或者把自己压得喘不过气来。这样每完成一步，你就会增强对自己能力的信心：你有发展潜力，可以事业有成。随着列出的目标实现日期表的加长，你的动力和要求也会增加。

长期目标可能与我们对未来的憧憬有关。长期目标可能跨越五年或者更长时间。人生不是静止不变的。我们决不应当让长期目标束缚我们的手脚、限制我们的行为。

Learning：A Lifelong Career

学习：一生的事业

As food is to the body, so is learning to the mind. Our bodies grow and muscles develop with the intake of adequate nutritious food. Likewise, we should keep learning day by day to maintain our keen mental power and expand our intellectual capacity. Constant learning supplies us with inexhaustible fuel for driving us to sharpen our power of reasoning, analysis, and judgment. Learning incessantly is the surest way to keep pace with the times in the information age, and an infallible warrant of success in times of uncertainty.

Once learning stops, vegetation sets in. It is a common fallacy to regard school as the only workshop for the acquisition of knowledge. On the contrary, learning should be a never-ending process, from the cradle to the grave. With the world ever changing so fast, the cease from learning for just a few days will make a person lag behind. What's worse, the animalistic instinct dormant deep in our subconsciousness will come to life, weakening our will to pursue our noble ideal, sapping our determination to sweep away obstacles to our success and strangling our desire for the refinement of our character. Lack of learning will inevitably lead to the stagnation of the mind, or even worse, its fossilization, Therefore, to stay mentally young, we have to take learning as a lifelong career.

学习之于心灵，就像食物之于身体一样。摄取了适量的营养食物，我们的身体得以生长而肌肉得以发达。同样地，我们应该日复一日不断地学习以保持我们敏锐的心智能力，并扩充我们的智力容量。不断的学习提供我们用不尽的燃料，来驱使我们磨利我们的推理、分析和判断的能力。持续的学习是在信息时代中跟时代并驾齐驱的最稳当的方法，也是在变动的世代中成功的可靠保证。

一旦学习停止，单调贫乏的生活就开始了。视学校为汲取知识的唯一场所是种常见的谬误。相反地，学习应该是一种无终止的历程，从生到死。由于世界一直快速地在变动，只要学习停顿数日就将使人落后。更糟的是，蛰伏在我们潜意识深处的兽性本能就会复活，削弱我们追求高贵理想的意志，弱化我们扫除成功障碍的决心，而且扼杀我们净化我们人格的欲望。缺少学习将不可避免地导致心灵的停滞，甚至更糟地，使其僵化。因此，为了保持心理年轻，我们必须将学习当作一生的事业。
