[一]:Styles of Living 1．有些人愿意和父母居住在一起 2．有些人想自己独立居住 3．我的看法

Some people enjoy living together with their parents after they have grown up.They hold the opinion because, living with parents, they can take better care of their parents and vice versa.Meanwhile, they can turn to their parents for help if they get into trouble or have some difficulties.To them, life in a big family seems to be more enjoyable than that in a small family.Others, however, prefer to live separately.They cherish the idea to be independent of their parents, seek more freedom and wish to have a place of their own, in which they can do what they like.Bedsides, they don＇t want to be overprotected by their parents but long for chance to face the society by themselves.As to me, I like an independent life style in spite of the fact I love my parents.Different generations have different life styles and values.What one generations likes may not be another generation＇s fondness.Living

separately, each generation can enjoy different value.In addition, by leading an independent life, I can train my character and develop my own ability to deal with things encountered in my life.[二]: Direction: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition entitled On Power Failure.You should write at least 120 words according to the following guidelines(given in Chinese): 1．很多城市缺电现象严重 2．分析原因 3．提出建议

On Power Failure Recently, every morning when I wake up, I find my air-conditioner automatically turned off.I didn＇t understand why at first, but soon I learned that there was a great shortage of electricity supply in our city C my air-conditioner turned off because of a power failure midnight.With the rapidly developing industry and the ever-increasing population, demand for electricity supply is soaring.Besides, summers in recent years are much hotter than before, so most working places and households are air-conditioned, which consumes additional electricity.Face with such a hard nut, we have to find ways to crack it.Above all, in western areas China, there is surplus of electricity supply.So, cities that are thirsty for electricity may ask for remote help.Then, when we have electricity, we should remember to save it.Set your air-conditioners at 27C and you won＇t feel less comfortable than when they are at 26C.In fact, some factories already shift their working hours to avoid the peak time of electricity consuming.My parents don＇t work from Monday to Friday as before C they work form Saturday to Wednesday and have the following two days off instead.This is also a way out, isn＇t it? [三]： Career or Family: which is more important? When asked about their opinion of career and family, people always respond differently.Some people deem it more important to pursue their career, while there are always other people who argue that family should be the number one in one’s life.It goes without any question that career plays a key role in our life.In the very first place, career can give us an aim to live on.Without career, much of our living time will be certainly wasted.What’s more, career can provide us with a means to live on.Most of the people earn their income from a job.On the other hand, family is also an indispensable part of life, as many people will admit.Family is always regarded as a place where we can escape from troubles in life.In addition, we can obtain a sense of

belonging to from family.Without it, anyone will feel lonely and desperate.In my opinion, career and family are not in opposition to each other.Rather, they can enhance each other so that one’s life can become better and better.Therefore, it’s not a choice between right and wrong, but one between ideal and practical.中国公务网 2006-5-28 11:34:59 [四].Olympics and I Dear friend，I have a great news to inform here.Through long efforts, Beijing has been granted the right to host 2008 Olympic games.As a resident in Beijing, I feel quite excited and like to share with you my happiness.This success means a lot more than a game to me.In the first place, this Games will definitely promote the development of our economy.According to a recent survey by some experts, this games will raise our GDP by about 3%, and offer about 10,000 jobs.What’s more, our culture will be widely recognized and accepted all over the world through the Games.People will come over from every corner of the world, and experience Chinese culture in every aspect.Besides, through the games, our living environment will be greatly improved.For example, the public

Ever since early this century, electricity has become an essential part of our modern life.It plays an important role in many fields such as industry, agriculture and the daily life of men.Electricity is a source of energy that makes it possible for the factories to turn out products and for people to create comfortable living conditions, for example.If there were no electric power, things would be quite different.Machines could not run and people would have to fall back on their hands to produce what is essential for them to keep alive.Traffic would have to stop at night because there would be no lights in the street.A world in darkness would no longer be a pleasant one.In a word, things would be in a mess.Therefore, we should realize the importance of electricity.As

electricity is insufficient in our country, we should be frugal in using electricity.We should make great efforts to produce more electricity.[七]

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 miniutes to write a composition on the title:make our city greener,your composition should be based on the following outline: 1：城市绿色的状况

2：绿化的好处（如：清洁空气，美化城市，改 善气候......）

3：怎样才能实现绿化

范文：

Recent efforts toward the greening of our cities have achieved much, although the results are still far from satisfactory.In recent years many trees have been planted in the cities and much care has been taken of the planted trees.In spite of all this, the greening process is relatively slow compared with cities in many other countries.For example, the green space available on average to each Shanghai citizen is only 0.4 Mu while every Londoner has more than 20 Mu.We can benefit much from making our cities greener by planting

trees.First, trees absorb carbon dioxide to produce oxygen which is essential to the health of human beings.Second, trees and other greenery make our cities more beautiful.Third, trees can also improve the climate of the cities.Since we can get so much from making our cities greener, we should spare no effort to do that.We should plant more trees and take better care of them.We also should not cut down the trees.In a word, we should do everything to add to the greening of our cities.[八]

1, state the changes in people's diet(饮食)in the

From the chart past five years;

2, give possible reasons for the changes 3, draw your own conclusions.4, you should quote as few figures as possible.we can see that during the past five years there have been great changes in people’s diet.The

greatest change occurs in grain consumption, which has dropped 4% from 49% in 1986 to 45% in 1990 in total food consumption.The second greatest change is in milk consumption, which increased from 10% in 1986 to 13% in 1990.But on the other hand, two trends can be observed in the consumption of meat and fruit and vegetables.From 1986 to 1989, meat consumption increased from 17% to 23% while that of fruit and vegetables dropped from 24% to 20%.From 1989 to 1990, meat consumption dropped a little to 21%, while that of fruit and vegetables increased a little to 21%.What has caused the great changes in people’s diet? The main reason, I think, lies in the improvement in people’s income level.With the development of our society, people are becoming richer and richer, which enables them to purchase more nutritious food such as meat and milk.In the meantime, grain consumption in people’s diet consequently dropped.So from the analysis, we can draw a conclusion that our society is progressing and people are living a better life than ever before.We are now able to purchase more delicious and nutritious food, resulting in an improvement in our health.[九]

others.And there are times when we fail to do satisfactory work.All

these failures happen naturally and almost every one of us has such experiences.However, there are different attitudes towards failure.Some people lose heart when they fail;they think the world is at its end.Some people don’t take failure seriously but just let it be, while some others learn

much from failure, and therefore see the light of hope through failure.In my opinion, what really counts is not failure itself, but what we think of failure and what we do after failure.As long as we don’t give up, keeping believing in ourselves, and in the meantime learn something from failure, we’ll certainly make our mark in the end.So I am never afraid of failure, for I believe that failure is not a bad thing.Rather, “Failure is the mother of success.”

Directions: For this part, you are allowed30 minutes to write a composition based on, the following two questions:

范文：

To a Chinese, the task of learning English well is not easy.So I, like many other English learners, have met with difficulties in learning English during the past seven years.But I managed to overcome them and made much progress.The spelling and meaning of words can be said to be the first difficulty I met as a beginner.But I found our my own way to deal with them.As to spelling, I never copied a new work again and again to remember it, but tried to find its relevance to the sound.In fact, as long as I can read the word out, I can write it out.As to the meaning, I rarely recite its Chinese translation but often put the word into the sentence to learn its meaning.Moreover, if you use a word quite often, its spelling and meaning will be no problem.After all, we are learning English in order to use it.Grammar and idioms may be another difficulty.But I have also got over it.I have not read lots of grammar books.But I spent much time reading the articles written by native speakers or specialists in English.By doing so, I came to gain “a sense of English language”.I began to gain a feel for which sentences are “good English” and which are not.Finally, I want to say that overcoming all these difficulties requires perseverance.In the past seven years I spent at least an hour on English

each day.I believe this is an important reason why I am able to make progress in learning English.[十一]

city you live in and thought you knew nobody there, you were surprised to find that you ran into one of your old classmates on the street!Then both of you cried out, “What a small world!”

Why is the world getting smaller and smaller? For one thing, modern technology has created various means of transportation.And they are more and more available.Buses, trains, planes and taxis are found in most cities of the world.They carry goods and passengers to and from every corner of the world.For another thing, with the development of modern society, people are in contact with one another more frequently.Everyday we must deal with a lot of people unknown to us before.The more advanced a society, the more contacts we make with others.So we can draw the conclusion that as long as technology makes progress, the world will grow smaller and smaller.[十四]

Can money buy happiness? Various people have various answers.Some people think that money is the source of happiness.With money, one can buy whatever he enjoys.With money, one can do whatever he likes.So, in their minds, money can bring comfort, security, and so on.Money, as they think, is the source of happiness.But there are still a lot of others who think that money is the root of all evil.Money drives people to steal, to rob, and to break the law.A lot of people became criminals just because they were in search of money.And in the Western countries, there is nothing that can’t be bought by money.Many people lose their own lives when hunting it.I think that money is essential to life and we cannot do without money.But even though money is necessary to life, it can’t buy happiness.Happiness is not something that can be measured by money.It is a state of mind.One can have plenty of money, with which he can buy whatever he wants, and at the same time he is not happy because he is

never satisfied or he is troubled by various kinds of problems.Therefore, although money is necessary for a happy life, it can’t buy happiness.[十六]

You should write at least 100 words, and base your composition on the outline(given in Chinese)below: 1.有人认为读书要有选择 2.有人认为应当博览群书 3.我的看法

Reading Selectively Or Extensively

范文：

Some people think when we read we should read selectively.That is to say, we should select some books we are interested in and ignore the others.Reading selectively can help us concentrate our limited time and attention on those selected books.Others think we should read extensively.No matter what kind of book it is, we should look it over.We should read various kinds of books, whether we are interested in them or not.They maintain that reading extensively can help to enlarge our view and grasp the general knowledge in different fields.In my opinion, the two reading ways have their roles respectively in our reading.However, the disadvantages of each methods are easy to see.If we only read the books we select or prefer, the framework of our

knowledge may not be complete.Our knowledge would be rather limited.And if we read without selection, we may not have so much time and energy to be specialized in one particular field.Therefore, the combination of the two methods is more reasonable.[二三]

January 12th, 2002 Dear Mr.President，I’m very lucky to attend this world-famous university, but I’m afraid I’m not content with the canteen service on campus.Firstly, the quality of the dishes should be improved.Undoubtedly, there are a lot of delicious dishes, but all the year round, they are the same.More and more students are complaining about eating the same food each day.So I think the most urgent problem is variety.Secondly, the price is a bit too high.Many of us hope that the canteen can provide us with not only delicious but also cheaper food.Finally, the environment is so noisy that we can’t enjoy our meals in good mood.I suggest that there be some soft music to help us relax.These suggestions are not just of my own, but also of may other students.We hope our respectable president will pay attention to our suggestions.By the way, the canteen workers are very patient and always smiling.So I think if our university offers them better conditions, they will offer

us better service.Best wishes，[二六]

It Pays to Be Honest

范文：

Although honesty is believed to be a virtue, there are still dishonest people in our society.For example, some businessmen sell fake product to their consumers;some students cheat in the exams.Dishonest people are short-sighted.Those who sell fake products may make money at first, but consumers won’t buy their products any more.As a result, they will lose their fortune or even be sent to prison.By contrast, honest people gain a lot.Those who always tell truth or keep to their promise not only let

others trust them but gain respect from other people as well.Such persons are sure to have a lot of good friends.Because they are trustable and respectable, everyone is eager to make friends with them, Besides, it is easier for a person with a good record to get a good job.Generally speaking, every employer wants his employees to be honest.So we can say that anyone who is honest will be paid back later.In a word, honesty wins trust, respect and honor.So it is important that we should be honest.[二七]

An Eye-Witness Account of a Traffic Accident

范文：

My name is Liming.I

am

studying at college.A week ago I saw a traffic accident , which is still vivid in my mind.It was at about 9:00 on Saturday morning, June 15th, when I went out of the university to visit a friend of mine at another university.I was

walking leisurely on the sidewalk when I heard a loud crash of two vehicles just at the T-junction about 10 meters away.Two taxis crashed together.It was a traffic accident.I went up and found that the two taxis were badly damaged.Both hoofs were out of shape.One door of a car was knocked off and lying on the road.One driver was blooding and another was shut in the taxi.Some people were trying to help the driver get out of the damaged car.One man was calling to the traffic policeman station.A lot of cars were jammed on the road.From the stopping track on the road, it is clear that the two taxis were driving too fast.But it is just one of the reasons.In my opinion, the taxi drivers are eager to take more passengers and make a little more money.On the other hand, both drivers don't show concern for one another.Both of them wanted to run in front of another.Therefore, the accident is inevitable.So far, we should let the drivers keep it in their mind that a little slower, a little safer.Taking care of other's lives means taking care of your own life.[二八] For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay[IN honour of teachers on

范文：

This is Teachers' Day and a time to be grateful to all teachers.This profession deserves the special recognition and respect.There is no more appropriate time than this to honour you and others in your chosen field.You have my eternal gratefulness.Have a happy Teachers' Day.The whole secret of the teacher's force lies in the conviction that men are convertible.Teacher, who educate children, deserve more honor than parents, who merely gave them birth;for the latter provided more life, while the former ensure a good life.What sculpture is to a block of marble, education is to the soule.My heartfelt thanks to you, dear teacher.On the voyage of life, you have kindled the light of hope for me.What you have done enriches my mind and broadens my view.On this day I honour you sincerely.No one deserves a bigger thank you than you.One day is hardly enough to show our gratitude.[二九] Directions: For this part，you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Should the University Campus Be Open to Tourists?

Should the University Campus Be Open to Tourists？

参考范文：

Should the University Campus Be Open to tourism?

Nowadays, many famous university campuses have become one of the popular tourist attraction.It has been shown on TV and on the radio that every year thousands and thousands of middle school students visit

TsingHua University and Peking University and other famous universities in China.In the place far away from the capital city，the local students also visit the universities famous in their own province.so far as the present situation is concerned, is it a good or bad thing to open the university campus for tourists? Different people have different opinions.On one hand，some people argued that it is a good thing for the students to visit the famous university campus in that it can enable the middle students to get more information about the university and they can have enough time and opportunity to prepare themselves with the chance to get into the university.On the other hand，some people hold a negative view about this phenomenon.In their opinion，the public tourism will have negative effect on the universities because it will not only do harm to the environment but also to the intellectual atmosphere.In my opinion, the tourism to the universities is not a good thing.The campus is mainly a place for study.With the increasing tourism on the campus，it will ruin the spiritual atmosphere in this learning field.

31.Advantages of Trying New Things

It is widely accepted that one is more likely to succeed at things he already knows how to do well.However,to limit ourselves to doing only those things we are good at will make us miss many opportunities to develop other interests and skills.Therefore,sometimes it is necessary for us to try some new things and take some rests.Though we have the risk of failure when trying new things,we can get many advantages from it.Firstly,the process of trying a new thing is a rewarding experience,from which we may feel a different world.Secondly,even if we fail,we can still absorb experience and lessons from the trying process and our failure.Thirdly,if it turns out that we succeed at this new try,we'll get great pleasure and confidence.Finally,it is impossible for us to never fail even if we do only what we are familiar with.We don't know when we'll meet the situation we can't control.With experience of trying new things,when facing unexpected situations,we can deal with them better.Condidering the above mentioned,we needn't be afraid of new things but should bravely try them.But it is worth noting that trying new things bravely does not mean acting rashly and blindly.We should take full account before we are ready to try new things.32.Holiday Economy

As we see, the extended holidays have caused unexpected great travel craze and brisk economic activities.But there are many debates on the advantages and disadvantages of this kind of holiday economy.Many people,especially some economists,are in favor of the holiday economy.They believe that tourism-based holiday economy has raised consumption and helped to spur the domestic demands.In addition,transportation,catering,hotels and service industries become flourishing during long holidays.However,many others argue that the holiday economy do more harm than good.First,the travel craze puts a heavy burden on the traffic system.Second,thousands of tourists full scenic spots causing over crowdedness and safety problems.As to me,I believe the advantages of holiday economy outweigh its disadvantages.After all,holiday economy greatly benefits the development of our overall economy.Besides,consumers can enjoy more colourful commodities and more preferential policies provided by the merchants.But the government should take effective measures to reduce the side effects of holiday economy.33.Education For All

Nowadays in China,the limit to candidates for college entrance examination is not so strict as before.People of all ages and even married people can take the examination and have a chance of becoming a college student.The new regulation has many advantages.Firstly,it provides more people with chances to receive high education.There are many people who have once lost the chance to enter a college for some reason.Now they can pick up their own dreams of being a college student.Secondly,it will introduce more students with different backgrounds and the abilities for colleges and universities.Finally,it stimulates competition and promotes the candidates to work harder.However,relaxing the limit of age and marriage might bring some problems.For one thing,married students have to take care of the family and children, which brings more difficulties for school management.For another,there might be a gap between the elder students and the other young students.Therefore,more attention should be paid to the enrollment of those people of other age groups and married persons.34.Parental Hopes and Personal Ideals

All parents hope their children will have a bright future.However, parents’ expectations for their children are not always in accordance with their children’s personal ideals, and sometimes they are even conflicting with each other.This is often a main cause for quarrels and gaps between parents and children.But what lead to the conflict between parental hopes and personal ideals?

The following three factors contribute to the conflict.First of all, in this fast-changing society, parents and children have too many differences in mind.Secondly, traditional patriarchy is still influencing Chinese parents in modern society.They are used to making decisions for their children.Third, nowadays young people have strong independence, who want to plan their own future and control their own destiny.Thus the conflict between parents and children inevitably appear.In order to solve the conflict, both parents and children should pay their efforts.For one thing, parents should give their children rights to make their own decisions.They may help their children make choices instead of replacing them to make choices.For another, children should learn to respect their parents’ advices since parents tend to have more life experience.Besides, to communicate with each other actively is necessary to their understanding each other.As long as both parents and children learn to think from the other side’s point of view, the conflicts between them can be avoided

35.Does e-mail make people get closer or drift apart?

Nowadays, more and more people are exchanging a great variety of imformation by using electronic mails instead of traditional ways of mailing letters.Some people think that e-mail makes relationships among people closer, while some others maintain that makes people drift apart.Those who hold the former opinion insist that the appearence of e-mail makes communication quicker and more convenient.By e-mail people can deliver more information including pictures and sounds.However, some others think e-mail with the same format and printfont includes less emotion, then traditional letters written by hand.Most people use e-mails to deliver information instead of feelings.From my point of view, e-mail does bring great convenience for people, but it is not a better way to express our feelings than traditional letters.Our hand-writing on the paper can deliver much emotion.Therefore, when you want to express your love and care to someone, writing a letter to her or him by hand is a wise choice.36.How to improve public morals?

Nowadays there are still many behaviors against public morality, such as spiting or littering in public places, cutting in line, wasting water or electricity and so on.来源：http://www.xiexiebang.com

One of the main reasons for these immoral behaviors is that some people lack personal manners and public consciousness.Actually these small things in many people's eyes have brought great bad effects on our community.Above all, these immoral behaviors disturb social order and disrupt socialsbility.Moreover, one's violating public morality not only evades others' benefits but also does harm to himself.For example, if most people buy pirated products, those original producers will suffer great damage and might lose the enthusiasm to continue their producing.Which in turn, influences consumers taking the profits into consideration, I think it is high time that we would take more effective measures to improve public morals.First of all, education plays a very vital role.We must utilize education to make people know their behaviors influence on the society and follow public morals consciously.Besides the government should improve the administration system and ensure the efficient improvement of administration measures.37.A Food Poisoning Accident

Last month, I witnessed a food poisoning accident happening to my classmates.At that time the situation was really very dangerous and urgent.Though finally they got out of danger, this accident is still vivid in my mind.恒星英语学习网 http://www.xiexiebang.com

That day was Julie’s birthday, one of my classmates.In order to celebrate it, her roommates bought a big birthday cake for her from a supermarket nearby.They shared the cake happily.However, after a while, all of them felt abdominal pain, nausea and dizziness.Two of them even cannot stand up because of great pain.We rushed to send them to the hospital.It turned out that the cake they ate had expired its guarantee period.Futunately, due to timely treatment, they all recovered very soon.However, this accident leaves me a deep ponder.I think it is very urgent to take effective measures to improve food safety.Firstly, the government should strengthen supervision and administration on food safety.More importantly, to those who immoral businessmen, more strict punishment should be given.Besides, we consumers should be more careful in buying food.Only in this way can we make sure that no same accident happens.38.Internet and Privacy

Internet has penetrated into all the aspects of our life and work.We can study and work by it.We can find a job by it.We can communicate by it.We can entertain by it.We can buy and sell by it.We can do almost everything on Internet, and almost anywhere, anytime.However, at the same time Internet provides services for us, it is inevitably invading our privacy to some degree.The services on most websites require our registry.If we want to enjoy these services, we have to provide much private much private information, including our names, genre, address, telephone number and sometimes bank accounts.Due to the poor Internet administration and weak network security, our information might be open, stolen or sold.Even sometimes the information will be misused by the criminals.来源：www.xiexiebang.com

Considering the above mentioned, we must enhance the alertness when using the Internet.First, when we need Internet service, we should always log on those big legal websites.Second, if the service requires important private information, you should think twice before you type in it.39.Show Your Love to Victims in Wenchuan Earthquake

40.Learn to Be Grateful

Nowadays, quite a few college students lack conciousness of being grateful.They turn to take such things for granted, as parents supporting them, teachers helping them, and waiters serving them.They are even mean to say “Thank you” to others.This phenomenon has caused great attention from the whole society.The following reasons can account for the lack of gratefulness conciousness.First of all, unsound family education plays an important role.Many parents turn to pay too much attention to children's academic performance, but ignore their value orientation.Moreover, schools don't input enough time and money in moral education.Besides, nowadays, college students get so much love that they are insenstive to others' care and help.Considering the seriousness of the problem, it is high time to take effective measures to strengthen college students conciousness of being grateful.First, parents should improve self-quality and influence children by their own behaviors.Second, our society and schools must increase input in moral education, and try to build the atmosphere of being grateful.Finally, we college students should learn to express our gratefulness to people around us, just beginning from the simple “Thank you”.41.The Moonlight Clan

Nowadays, more and more people, especially the young are joining in the army of “the moonlight clan”.These people exhaust their earnings every month without any savings.Many people think this is a fashionable life style, while more other people object to this kind of consumption style.Those who support “the moonlight clan” think that those people know how to enjoy life and have a higher life quality.However, more other people criticize “the moonlight clan”.They say that the consumption habit of “the moonlight clan” is unhealthy and sometimes wasteful.In addition, no savings will place “the moonlight clan” in a difficult position in case of unexpected expenses.恒星英语学习网

Weighing these two arguments, I prefer to the latter one.In my eyes, though “the moonlight clan” may acquire temporary satisfaction from their consumption, in the long term, it is unfavorable to their family and career.Just as a proverb says, one should always prepare for a rainy day.42.Young People Should Have Ideals

What are you going to do when you grow up? When I was a child, people often asked me this question about the ideal.Undoubtedly, every inpidual, especially a young person, should have an ideal.Hardly can we find any great people we know ideal when they were young.An ideal is a vital importance to one's growth and success.On the one hand, an ideal is the target of one's life.Once you decide what your ideal is, you know where to go, and which way to take.Otherwise, you might become puzzled in many things in your life.On the other hand, an ideal is like the engine of vehicles.Only when we have our own ideals, can we find the origin of energy and enthusiasm in life, and become active and perseverant.Whatever your ideal is, careful plan and preparation is vital to its realization.Of course, the path from where you are to where you want to get is not always smooth and straight.Therefore, an optimistic, positive mind is indispensable in the process of your persevering your ideal.In a word, only if you have an ideal, you will have the chance of realizing it.http://www.xiexiebang.com

43.parents making decisions for their children

In morden society,traditonal patriarchy is still influencing Chinese parents.They tend to make almost all decisions for their children,from choosing school to picking up a profession and to deciding whom they are to marry.Sometimes even those detail things such as clothing and daily timetables have to be decided by parents.However,deciding everthing for children does not help them but harm them in many ways.On the one hand,it will make children lack independence and initiative,which is unfavourable to their development in the long run.On the other hand,in many cases parents' decisions are not always in accordance with children' personal ideas and interests,this will make children form resistence and naturely influence their growth.本文来源:恒星英语学习网

From my piont of view,it is unwise for parents to make every decision for their children.It is obvious that parents can not accompany their children for ever.To grow to be indepent is a nature way for everbody.Therefore, in my opinion parents should give their children chances to make their own decisions.They may help their children make choices instead of replacing them to make choices.44.Criticism

It is not unusual for people to be subject to criticism.Anyone may be criticised by others in his work or study.For example: workers who fail to accomplish their tasks will be criticised.Students who have poor performance in exams will be criticised.Attitudes towards criticism differ from person to person.Some people will become annoyed if they are criticised and they will try to excuse themselves by all means.Some people tend to be indifferent criticism.They just regard criticism as nonsenses.But still some people accept criticism modestly and try to find their shortcomings by other's criticism.These people stand a better chance of success in their life.http://www.xiexiebang.com 恒星英语

As to me, I welcome other's criticism to me.I have always believed the Chinese saying,“Good medicine but taste bitter will heal one's illness”.In my opinion, the criticism will make us unhappy.It can help us know our shortcomings and inadequacy.Therefore,we should take other's criticism seriously, instead being annoyed with or turning a deaf ear to it.45.Learn to give up wisely

Never give up has been accepted by many people as a positive life attitude.Admittly persistence often plays an important role in one success.However,in many cases to give up might be wiser than to persist blindly.The following reasons can support this argument.Firstly,sometimes our goal may be unrealistic.If we insist on it blindly, it will finally bring us nothing but failure.At this time,what we should do is give up the orignal goal and reset a more pratical one.Secondly,not all persistence can bring deserving results.For a very simple example if we keep waiting in line for hours, only to have a luncheon restaurant may be it is unwise.来源：恒星英语学习网 http://www.xiexiebang.com

Finally, to give up wisely does not mean admitting failure.Instead,it does mean a new hope of success.Considering the above mentioned, we can come to the conclusion that to give up wisely is a kind of more mature life attitude.Though giving up sometimes is painful and costly,in the long run what we gain will definitely far out weight what we lose.46.a witness of a theft incident

Yesterday I witnessed a theft incident on my way home.The thelf was so that it left me a very deep impression...It was in the rush hour when many people would buy tickets the subway station.A woman took her purse out and pay for the ticket and then she put her purse back into her bag and turn to leave when a middle aged man rushed pass her muttering:“excuse me ”, she didn't feel unusual and went into station indeed her purse had been stolen by that man.To our surprise the thelf seems not to be nervous at all and even began to look others up and down.Maybe he was searching for the next target.At that time,some persons including me witnessed the process but unfortunately no one dared to warn that woman.恒星英语学习网

This incident makes me ashamed and leave me a deep thought:the pickpocket has posed a great threat to residents and visitors' property safety.Undoutedly, it is a urgent thing to take action to prevent pickpocket.However, it cannot dependent on the police only ,instead it needs our common efforts.We connot shut our eyes and mouths to the pickpocket anymore.It should be kept in our minds that our forces are far beyond these thelves.47.A complaint letter to one neighbour

Auguest 14th,2008.Dear Mr.John ，I'm one of your neighbours.And I'm now writing and behave of the resident 's association to complain about your making noises.You disterb others' normal lifes.恒星英语 www.xiexiebang.com

Since you moved in the building three months ago we have received many complaints about your bad behaviors.According to the complaints you have shown very little consideration for the other residents of the building.For example ,you often turned on the music very loudly till late.Furthermore every weekend your extremely noisey partys last until the early hours of the next morning so that other residents can not have a good rest.Much words though some residents have talked to you about the noise you made your behavior has no improvement.A harmony community's life needs every resident's effert.Of course you are no exception.We hope you can realise and stop your improper behavior as soon as possible.Unless you do something to improve the present situation,we will have no other choice but to take legal action.Your's sincerely

When it comes to a traveling way, different people will offer different opinions.来源：恒星英语学习网

Some people like to travel alone, while others prefer to travel with a companion.Of course every one has different considerations for his preference.Traveling alone one can enjoy more freedom.The traveler can arrange his tour as he wishes.Without the trouble of compromising with others.Morever, traveling alone tends to bring the traveler unexpected surprises, such as making a new friend and enjoying different scenery.Compared with traveling alone, traveling with a companion has also its advantages.For one thing the group members can help and look after each other on the journey.For another traveling with others who have the same interest as you, you can share experiences and pleasure with them.As for me, I prefer to travel with a companion.Firstly, we can together deal with the possible problems and difficulties on the journey.Secondly, I like to share the experience of traveling with others.In summary, both traveling alone and traveling with a companion have their own attractions and you can enjoy the pleasure of traveling from either one
