1112 The Way to SuccessSuccess is something everyone looks for, longs for and dies for. But have you ever considered what success is? Some may hold that success means one has beautiful life, like pretty house, cool cars and great power. It’s indeed one wa y to define success. But to me, success is doing something one really feels like doing.To achieve this kind of success, one has to bear in mind three essential prerequisites, namely knowing where your interest really lies in, possessing the strong will to pursue your interest and having the diligence to realize your dream. In other words, they are “what” “why” and “how” of success. It’s really luckily good for one, especially for the younger generation of today to find their dreams, follow them and in the end, make them come true and become successful.Although it’s never easy to succeed, progressing with the strong will and diligence towards the right direction, you’ll be the one!1106 Certificate Craze1. 现在许多人热衷于各类证书考试2. 其目的各不相同3. 在我看来In recent years, to get a certificate has become a hot topic among people,especially among the young and heated debates are right on their way.A number of factors could account for the problem, but the following are the most critical ones. College students in growing numbers are beginning to believe that get a certificate contributes directly to enhancing their future job opportunities or promotion opportunities. The pressure of employment makes college students be more inclined to get various certificates. What’s more M any parents and teachers believe that additional educational activities enjoy obvious advantage. By preparing certificate test, they maintain, their children are able to obtain many kinds of practical skills and useful knowledge, which will put them in a beneficial position in the future job markets.After a thorough consideration, for my part, I am in favor of being more rational when it comes to certificates, since certificates do not necessarily prove one’s ability. Being crazy in getting certificates blindly will definitely leads to wasting of time. The students should enhance their awareness of the importance of ability. To conclude, we should focus on improving our ability but not getting a certificate of no practical value.1012 My View on University Ranking1. 目前高校排名相当盛行2. 对于这种做法,人们看法不一3. 我认为……It is a not-uncommon social phenomenon that the university rankings are especially prevalent in our country. For example, universities are measured by scale, academic achievements or the number of papers published in famous magazines.As to this issue, opinions vary from person to person. Some people hold that university ranking dramatically promotes the development of university in various fields.But others maintain that university ranking also leads to some undesirable consequences such as academic fraud even to deceive people.As far as I am concerned, every coin has two sides. On one hand, University ranking does encourage the development and growth of colleges. Such growth– the grand libraries, splendid stadiums and fruitful academic achievements, has caught the attention of the world. We’re impressed by these signs of our education’s tour to the 21st century.On the other hand, we have to pay attention to an unexpected phenomenon that some people have ignored the objectivity of university ranking. Take South University of Science and Technology of China for an example, this university occupies the second position in some university rankings. In those rankings, it is superior to Peking University and Tsinghua university. In a word, we should inspire the advantages of university and abandon its disadvantages.1006 Due Attitude Should Be Given to the Study of Chinese1、近年来在学生中出现了忽视中文的现象2、出现这种现象的原因和后果3、为了改变这种状况,我认为……Almost no one in China can have failed to notice the fact that a number of students pay little attention to the study of Chinese nowadays. Taking a look around, one can find examples too many to list: some refuse to go to Chinese classes, some read few Chinese classics and some rarely write in Chinese.A number of factors can account for such phenomenon, but the following might be the critical ones. For one thing, the craze for learning English affect, to some degree, students’ passion for the study of their native language. For another, the increasing emphasis on some so-called “practical subjects” closely related to the pursuit for jobs also cut into students’ time and energy spent on the study of Chinese。
