Topic1 On making mistakes”The onl y man who never makes mistakes is the man who never does anything。

” Obsolete as it may sound，the saying is quite sensible. It indicates that to err is human, as was remarked centuries ago by Alexander Pope, the renowned British poet。

Strangely enough，people exert great efforts to avoid making mistakes，which actually are part of our life。

Let’s name but a few。

First，we may take the wrong steps when we first learn to toddle，and fall over. However，we learn how to walk and run from it。

Second，we may make friends with someone who is a hypocrite，and get hurt.Topic2 On manner of dealing with peopleConfucius once said，"Do not do to others what you would not like to be done to you”, which is an important principle in deal ing with the interpersonal relationship。

It tells us that we should put ourselves in others' shoes when we get along with others. However，in reality, chances are good that people do things in their own way and fail to take others' feelings into consideration。

There may be no better example than living in the dormitory。

For example, in the same dormitory some like playing video games with a loudspeaker，but others like quietness and enjoy reading. Some like to stay up late with the light on, but others get used to sleep early。

As a result，all may dislike each other and the dormitory life may become chaotic. In short, mutual understanding is indeed vital in dealing with others. That's why the first thing I will do in social interaction is to be more considerate，thinking of others' feelings more。

What's more, I will try to be as polite as possible and show my sincerity all the time，always treating others as I'd like to be treated myself.Topic3 Dare to be differentCoco Chanel, founder of the world famous French brand Chanel, remarked：”In order to be irreplaceable，one must always be different." The quote not only summarizes the secret of Chanel，but also reveals the jungle law of our society: it gains the competitive edge to be different. If you are different from others, you arehard to be replaced, because others don't have special qualities as you do. However, if you don’t stand out, the situation is wholly different. China, for example, was known for its cheap labor, which made the products "Made in Chi na” popular in the world。

But now, China is being replaced by countries like Vietnam for their cheaper labor。

After all，the Chinese model has nothing special and is easy to copy. On the contrary，the American design，for their distinction and originality，has nearly met no rivals yet. As for me，the most important thing to be different and irreplaceable is to dare to be myself。

First，I will do what I like to do and what I’m good at. What's more, I will keep learning skills to keep improving myself。

And I will speak out and dare to present the opposite views。

Topic4 On informationThe advent of the Internet has brought us into an era of information explosion。

Many people embrace the new information age, cheering ”information is king"；while others are skeptical，saying "Information is pretty thin stuff unless mixed with experience。

" I tend to agree with the latter, because experience is the catalyst to make information valuable。

There is no doubt that the importance of information becomes so self—evident，but without experience information can be futile or even fatal。

Take Ma Su as an example。

As a smart disciple of Zhuge Liang, the legendary figure in the Romance of Three Kingdoms，he was good at analyzing information and coming up with brilliant military tactics。

But when appointed commander in a real battle，he met his Waterloo for the lack of hands-on experience。

In order to make information more useful, we need experience to guide us how to make the best of information。

Of course, we should gather useful information first. But what is more important is to apply the information to practical use and accumulate as much valuable experience as possible，which can make information "thick” and work in our favor。

Topic5 On obstaclesThere is a saying that goes，”Obstacles are things a person sees when he takes his eyes off his goal。

" Simple as it sounds，the intended meaning is more than profound. It is indicated in the quote that if we stick to our goal, we will triumph over any adversity and no longer see them as obstacles。

For instance，I once had to make a tough decision after my failure in the college entrance examination: to accept what life throws at me or to try it again。
