范文1Directions:When we decide to attend college, some people think school brand is the most important factor to be taken into consideration, but others hold that major is more important. Which weighs more, do you think, a school or a major?Major is More Important than School Brand in College ChoiceAfter years of preparation for high education, it is time for high school students to decide which school to enroll. Among various factors, school brand and major become the most important factors to be taken into consideration. Between them I hold major as more important than school brand.My preference for a good major rather than school brand lies in the following two reasons.The first one is that an ideal major can motivate me to make greater efforts in academic study. As a popular saying goes, interest is the best teacher. With a major of great interest, I will exert more efforts on it and more inspiration will come out. But in a famous school with no ideal major, though there are learned supervisors, and excellent teaching facilities, I will feel dull with no academic interest. The second reason is that a good major means a good occupation in the future. The reputation of a famous college is very important in job hunting. But what employers need are faculties who can do special jobs. So they pay more attention to the employees’ quality and ability in specialties.From what we have discussed above, we can safely get the conclusion that major outweighs school brand in our decision of college entrance.范文2Directions: Every July is the time for graduates to decide whether to further study or find a job. Some students take part in graduate entrance examination, but others want to work as soon as they graduate. Suppose you were to graduate, which one do you prefer?Which to Choose: to Further Study or to Find a JobA survey says that in recent years more and more students enter for postgraduate entrance examination. But many people argue against the tendency. They hold that to find a good job soon after graduation is more practical. Actually, different people have different opinions as to the question whethe r we should further study in graduate school or we should begin works, because both have their advantages and disadvantages.Many people appreciate the bright future a master’s degree may bring to them. Three years’ accumulation of knowledge is more likely to enable them to solve more challenging problems. And it is a fact that in many cases a graduate has more chances to get a promotion, and to have high salary than an undergraduate. But a promising job after college graduation is also attractive, especially when the job hunting competition becomes more and more fierce. A job in hand is worth two in the future. Another three years’means a delay but more heated competition with others latter.However, both of them have their own problems. Academic study in graduate school may be difficult for a freshman from college who has no practical experience, which may be also a problem when they search for a job three years later. Those without a master’s experience may come across many problems too., like special knowledge inefficiency, and research ability inadequacy.As far as I am concerned, I want to be more knowledgeable and capable through postgraduate study. So given me the chance, I would choose to further study in graduate school.范文3Directions: After graduation, some students prefer to go work in developed cities like Beijing and Shanghai, while others want to go to West China. Where do you want to work?Where to Work: Developed Cities or West China?To respond to the call of government, many graduates have gone to West China to work these years. But many students still say frankly that they would choose developed cities like Beijing and Shanghai to work. People are so distinct in the choice of work place because both working in developed cities and working West China have their own advantages and disadvantages.Many people appreciate the privileges the developed cities may bring to them. The developed cities may offer them more opportunities to get a good job and earn more money, and the advanced working facilities may make their work more comfortable. Nevertheless, working in West China is also very attractive. They will have more chance to learn the practical problems in poverty-stricken western areas. And therefore their abilities to solve problems will be improved.Both working in big cities and in less developed West China may have some problems. You have to bear the working pressures from the heated competition in big cities, and you have to bear the poor working, transportation, and communication conditions in West China.As far as I am concerned, I would like to have the chance to improve my abilities and to contribution what I can to the development of West China. Therefore, I would choose to work in West China.范文4Directions: People in modern society live under a lot of pressure, from education, career, or family. So it is important for them to keep a good mood under whatever circumstances. Write a composition on the following topic: The Importance of Keeping a Good Mood.The Importance of Keeping a Good Mood.Competition is one of the traits of this society. Heated competition in career and education has exerted great pressure on people, which brings about many physical illness and mental problems. In my opinion, a good mood is critically important for us under whatever situation.The importance can be shown in the following two aspects.For one thing, a good mood is beneficial to our health, both physically and mentally. People who are always gloomy, according to the Chinese traditional medicine, have more chances to suffer from physical illness such as kidney pains. On the contrary, keeping in a good mood, we can make ourselves relaxed and therefore can keep claim and optimistic in difficulties. Therefore, a good mood keeps doctors (including mental healing) away. For another, with a good mood, we are likely to work more efficiently. The reason is that in a good mood we are more willing to cooperate with others, and are more willing to listen to others’ advice. With such relaxation, it is easy for all the people to figure out solutions and the problems. Therefore, it is not exaggerating to say that a good mood is the precondition of working efficiency.From the reasons we have presented above, we can surely come to the conclusion that keeping a good mood, we will be healthier, and in a good mood, we are more likely to succeed in our career.范文5Directions: Nowadays, people are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of health. And they have different ways to stay healthy. For example, some exercise every day; others try to keep a balanced diet. What do you think is the best way to stay healthy? Write a composition of about 150 words on the following topic:The Best Way to Stay HealthyIn such a quick fixed society, people have to bear burdens from education, work and families. Therefore, it’s necessary for them to attach more importance to their health. As to the best way to k eep healthy,some people insist on a balanced diet, and some others argue for physical exercises. As far as I am concerned, I agree with the latter.My suggestion of sports as the best way to stay healthy lies in the following reasons. Firstly, doing sports cankeep you fit, for it helps you burn your excessive fat, which is much safer than any wonder drug, miracle diet or liposuction to lose weight. Secondly, doing sports can contribute a lot to a patient’s recovery. However severe one’s illness may be, the process of exercise can more or less do good to him or her, for it can speed up the rate of blood circulation, and help him or her to inhale more fresh air. In this way, exercise can quicken the process of recovery. Thirdly, by doing sports you can get your brain refreshed, which is of vital importance to the people working at offices and students in intensive study.T he benefits of sports are more than I have listed. Doing sports will make us fit, strong, and in good working condition, namely, it helps us stay healthy.范文6Directions: Ours is called a male society. In the world of jobs, most high-level ones are done by men. Some people think the government should reserve a certain percentage of these jobs to women. Do you agree or disagree?Reserve Certain High-level Jobs to WomenNowadays, most of the high-paying, powerful, and responsibility-demanding jobs are held by men. Some people suggest that the government should reserve a certain percentage of these jobs to women. I do agree with this opinion, because our society could benefit a lot if more women were in the positions of power for the following reasons.Firstly, women may make greater contribution to the development of society because of their own peculiar w the line of thinking. Women tend to care more about details, which may decide the success or failure of a matter to some extent. The more detailed consideration, the fewer loopholes there are in an important plan. With female leaders’thoughtful consideration, work decisions and plans may be more comprehensive. Secondly,women’s nature of tenderness and tack in communication may make high-level jobs more fruitful especially in some fields demanding harmonious interpersonal communication. Conflicts are unavoidable in any work, and negotiation among various parts to each an agreement is especially critical. In these cases, women, with their born tact to communication with others may play an important role in negotiation.I have outlined the advantages of providing more high-level jobs to women. Though it may arouse problems, as many other things against our tradition. It is a course worthy of our efforts,considering the contributions women may make in high position.范文7Directions:Nowadays, there are a growing number of people who show less interest in going to the cinema than in watching TV. Some people worry that maybe someday, TV will replace film. What’s your opinion?TV Will Never Kill FilmAccording to a recent survey, in 1991 about 57% of people went to movies as in important recreation. However, this number has fallen to 15% in 2008. Some people even worry that TV will kill film. But I don’t think so.I insist that TV never kills film for the following two important reasons. Firstly, film can provide us with a good chance to enjoy the special passion derived from the cinema effect. When the beautiful scenery, the horrible scene, the magic world, and the moving love story are projected onto the much larger screen, we can vividly feel we are in the film as one of the characters and all our excitement will be motivated, in which way we can get the real experience of the story. However, watching TV, no matter how hard we try to create “cinema effect” at home. We are still sitting to watch the performance of others. I love going to the film. Secondly, because watching film, I can get more art appreciation in much shorter time. We rarely have film serial like TV serial and a film lasts at most three hours. So producers, in such a short time, must try their best to offer us all the condensed essence of the film, and to provide us with the best artistic creation. We don’t have to wait for several days or several months to followthe development of the story, and much is left to audience to ponder over. But usually TV serial is really time-consuming, and it seems that the story will never end. Sometimes, we may feel that we have nothing to think about but waiting for the next part to tell.I love that kind of passion in the films, and I love artistic enjoyment from film. Therefore, comparing with watching TV, I like movies more.范文8Directions: Cell phones have become a popular medium. But as to the attitude toward it, some people hold that it is the wonder of human invention, which makes our life colorful, while others insist that it be harmful. What are that advantages and disadvantages of cell phones?Cell Phones: Both a Blessing and a CurseHigh-technology has played an important role in our daily life. And the communicative medium we benefit most is cell phone. Though some people worry about the troubles they may bring to us, I do believe that “ A coin has two sides.” Cell phones can be both a blessing and a curse.On the one hand, cell phones bring us a lot of convenience. As a means of communication, cell phones make it possible to call any person anywhere at any time, which seemed impossible decades ago when one had to stand in the telephone box to make a call. Now we can call a friend when we feel lonely at a distant place, and we can call an ambulance immediately when an accident occurs though there is no telephone available at hand.On the other hand, cell phones do bring us some troubles. Short message traps, which inform you of a big prize, promise you a special service, and sell you even arms and cars, really annoy both police and cell phones users. In addition, radiation from cell phones may be a threat to our health.Taking these merits and demerits into account, I do think cell phones can be a choice of communicative means, when the above problems can be solved.范文9Directions: Continuous reports about the tragedies caused by children’s being indulged in computer games have aroused the whole society’s concern for this problem. Write a composition in about 200 words on the following topic: Being Indulged in Computer Games is Harmful.Being Indulged in Computer Games is Harmful.An excellent college student flunked because he could not concentrate on the study for being too indulged in computer games. He spent nearly all the money on games, which was earned by his father’s selling blood. When his father knelt down to beg him to return school, he was too numb to show any regret. When computers’entertaining function is highly spoken of, such a problem does deserve our serious concern.The most serious harm of computer games comes from their contents, which affect children’s mental health. Many games involve violence such as fighting and killing. To win or kill their opponents, children are permitted to use all various means like guns, knives and bombs. When they are enjoying the pleasure of success, a violent turn of mind is developed and rooted in them, which may induce future violent behaviors in their real life. Being indulged in computer can arouse many uncomfortable feelings such as a headache, poor eyesight and even losing hair. Being lack of sleep and dinner, children are more likely to get irritable and suffer from severe malnutrition.Of course, it is not the end of the story. Being indulged in computer games also affects children’s study, and their communication with others. All these facts show that it is time for us to manage computer games by the whole society.范文9Directions: We see advertising on television every day. Some people think that TV advertising brings us benefits,bit others don’t think so. What’s your opinion? Write a composition on the following topic: A Major Advantage or Disadvantage of Advertising on TV.Version 1A Major Advantage of Advertising on TVSome people complain about the interference of TV ads in their enjoying excellent performance. Many others even turn to other channels when TV ads are released. They believed that TV ads mislead customers especially youngsters to have unreasonable consuming concepts. In spite of such hostile attitude, we must admit that TV advertising is beneficial to us in various ways. The major advantage is to promote consumption.TV advertising promotes for, firstly, it is an efficient way for manufacturers to publicize their product s. TV is a medium, through which information can be spread quickly, vividly, and in a large scale. When Wahaha, a kind of children’s drink, is released on TV, the song is imitated by children all over the nation nearly overnight. Along with its release the sale of drink increases greatly. Without TV ads, a product would get a longer time to be acknowledged by a limited number of people.TV advertising promotes consumption for, secondly, it provides a good way for consumers to learn the products. This is a time when information is too excessive to be processed. Without TV ads, customers will spend large quantity of time looking for the goods they want, and choosing from the alternatives. TV ads give them much information about the products, the manufacturers, the places they can purchase or enjoy, and the possible effects.From the above reasoning, we can easily see the consumption promoting function of TV ads. We hope that TV ad agencies will give us more colorful and more trustworthy about advertising.Version 2Major Disadvantages of Advertising on TVT V advertising plays an important role in promoting commercials.With skillful creation, charming images, and bright colors, TV ads have become a consuming guide. With rapid and wide conveyance of advertising, advertised products are soon acknowledged. But when we appreciate the advantages of TV advertising, we must admit that it does bring us some troubles. The serious one is the TV ad has interfered in people’s normal life. The interference of TV ads in our normal life is reflected in the following ways. Firstly, in almost every ten minutes a television program will be interrupted by commercials for a couple of minutes, which ruins good television shows and our mood to enjoy the shows. To make use of audience’s interest in the shows, advertising is arranged so skillfully that it is annoying to find that what you are patiently waiting for is only the end of the show after the irritating ads. You will feel cheated. Secondly, TV ads interfere in our life also in that some of them mislead people with flowery phrases and empty promises, arousing an acquisitive desire for material things, and thus confusing our real needs.Our discussion about the disadvantages of TV advertising is not to get rid of them from our life, for they do benefit us in many ways. We want to suggest that TV advertising should show more respect for audience, and should take more responsibility to guide people’s consumption.。
