Extravagant Spending on College Campus

According to a survey, in recent years the monthly expenditure of a college student hasbeen on the sharp rise. Many college students have no concept of thrift in their mind. Theytake it for granted that they spend money from their parents before they enter into the society.This extravagant spending is primarily caused by the following factors.

First of all, nowadays most of the students are the only children of their families. They arethe apple in their family’s eyes and naturally get more care and pocket money. In addition, withthe improvement of living standards, parents can afford higher expenditure of their children.Moreover, some students like to pursue fashion and trends, which tend to need more money.Finally, campus love is also a possible factor causing extravagant spending.

From my point of view, a college student, as a pure consumer, should learn to be thrifty.We should limit our expenditure on daily necessities but not buy whatever we want regardlessof their prices. The habit of thrift can help us form right values and is favorable to our futuredevelopment.

【范文】溺愛

"Nowadays parents are too permissive withtheir children." Do you agree or disagree withthis statement?

談?wù)勀銓Ω改改鐞酆⒆舆@種現(xiàn)象的看法

Today, few people would defend the traditionalattitude to children. If you recall what happened inold days, you would be astonished at the severeand strict education for children, for instance, old-fashioned spanking was common punishment forchildren. As a result, while the parents thusestablished their own authority, the poor children would never recover from the dreadfultraumatic experience when they grew up.

However, as you know, things often go to extremes. Nowadays, parents' confidence in theirown authority has been greatly undermined. Countless articles in magazines and newspapersand tv programmes publicize childcare. When so much over-enthusiastic advice flying about,mum and dad just don't know what to do any more. In the end, they do nothing.

So from early childhood, the kids are in charge and parents' lives are regulated according tothe needs of their off spring. When the little dears develop into teenagers, they take completecontrol. If the young people are going to have a party, for example, parents are asked to leavethe house. Their presence merely spoils the fun. What else can the poor parents do butobey?

In my mind, a child certainly needs love, and a lot of it. But the excessive pe rmissiveness ofmodern parents is surely doing more harm than good. The spread of juvenile delinquency islargely due to parental laxity. Mother, believing that her little baobao can look after himself, isnot at home when he returns f rom school, so little baobao roams the street. The dividing-linebetween permissiveness and sheer negligence is very fine indeed.

【范文】Feather in the Wind

A certain good woman one day said something that hurt her best friend of many years.She regretted immediately and would have done anything to have taken the words back.What she said hurt the friend so much that this good woman was herself hurt for the pain she caused.In an effort to undo what she had done,she went to an older, wiser woman in the village,explained her situation, and asked for advice.Listening to her,the older woman sensed the younger woman’s distress and knew she must help her.She also knew she could never alleviate her pain,but she could teach.

She knew the outcome would depend solely on the character of the younger woman.She said, “Tonight, take your best feather pillows and put a single feather on the doorstep of each house in town before the sun rises.”The young woman hurried home to prepare for her chore,even though the feather pillows were very dear to her.All night long, she labored alone in the cold.Finally the sky was getting light,she placed the last feather on the steps of the last house.Just as the sun rose, she returned to the older woman.“Now,” said the wise woman,“Go back and refill your pillows with the feather you have put on the steps.

Then everything will be as it was before.”“You know that’s impossible!The wind blew away each feather as fast as I placed them on the doorsteps!”The young woman was surprised.“That’s true,” said the older woman.“Never forget. Each of your words is like a feather in the wind.Once spoken, no amount of effort,regardless how heartfelt or sincere, can never return them to your mouth.Choose your words well and guard them most of all in the presence of those you love.”

【范文】The Wind

We notice the wind when it seems cruel,when the trees turn away from it,and it cuts into our hearts.“Certain winds will make men’s temper bad,” said George Eliot.In Israel, there is one kind of wind that brings irritability,headaches, sickness and respiratory difficulties.In Germany, a warm, dry wind is said to blow heartaches down from the Alps.In Southern California,the Santa Ana is associated with an increase in depression and domestic violence.Scientists have tried without success to identify physiological reasons for these reactions.Everyone agrees, however, that dry winds like the Santa Ana,the cold northerly wind in France and the wind in Germany and Switzerland seem to have negative effects on our mental and physical well-being.

On windy days, playground fights,suicides and heart failures are more frequent.In Geneva, traffic accidents increase when a wind called the bise blows.At the request of patients,some Swiss and German hospitals postpone surgery when the wind blows off the northern slopes of the Alps.It is human to ask what is behind the wind.It is easy to personify the wind as the breath of God.The act of taking wind into our lungs is what gives us life.The Jews, Arabs, Romans and Greeks all took their word for spirit from the word for wind.Eskimo women once chased the wind from their house with clubs,while the men shot it with rifles to kill the evil spirit they believed rode its gusts.But our day-to-day lives are no longer blown on the winds.

We do not identify wind with spirit any more.That is good for commerce,but it exacts a cost to the human eye and heart.The wind blows us simple pleasures.There are winds lapping at shores,bathing us in scents of coconut and spice,beckoning us further.

【范文】Types of University Students

University students are different.They come from different parts of the country,speak various dialects,and follow their distinctive regional customs.However, a closer look at their purposes of learning at university will enable us to classify them roughly into three groups:those who learn out of instinct,those who learn for a promising future,and those who learn with no definite purposes.Firstly, there are a handful of students who learn without fatigue simply because they like to learn.They read a great deal of British and American novels because they are keenly interested in literature.

Others sit in front of the computer screen,working on one new program after another all day and all night because they have discovered beauty in complicated signal patterns,and dream of becoming “Bill Gates” one day.Secondly, there are job-oriented who work hard for a better career.It is arguable that the majority of university students fall into this category.After enrolling in the hottest specialty of the moment,they throw themselves into books, whether they like them or not,so as to absorb the most knowledge and to obtain all the available certificates,which may serve as a competitive edge in the cut-throat human resources market in four years’ time.

Thirdly, there is a small fraction of students who learn without an aim.They take courses, finish assignments, enjoy life on campus,but lead a directionless life.They do not know what they are doing,nor what they are willing to do,nor what they will be doing after college.They are a group of “sleepers”.Students from all parts of the country gather in the same university.After four years, they part to continue their various lives.However, it is almost certain that those who learn out of instinct will be happy,those who learn with a determination will be professionally successful at least,and those who learn without an aim will end up with nothing.

【范文】Christmas Carols

Usually at this time of the year,Christmas carols can be heard all over New York.They will waft from any street and lane,even from the dirtiest station of the dirtiest route, Route 7.Many people have to change trains there.When dusk falls, the commuters have to line up to move upstairs.The train is to clime up and onto the overpass and drive its way through this dirty and messy block.Peering downwards and into the windows of some extremely dilapidated building,passengers may sometimes see some mysterious-looking orientals dressed in Japanese-style dark suits practicing karate.

Looking further downwards,they may see an elderly black woman wearing a dirty flowery skirt,and holding a big plastic bag.Breathing with much difficulty, she is tottering along.If one happens to be in a dreamy and imaginative mood,he might think he has blundered into Hollywood and happens to be watching the making of a crime film.This is America too!.At the sight, some “rags to riches” dreamers might burst into tears.The other day, Christmas fast approaching,I was changing trains here.It was cold and wet. People inched forward,intending to change to Route 7.

Then I heard the voice of a child,who was singing “Silent Night” to the accompaniment of a small accordion.They were standing at the foot of the stairs, an elderly man and a little boy.Holding a little red tin can in one hand,the boy was ringing an iron bell with the other.His little face that appeared above his black overcoat was flushed in the cold air.Some passengers produced coins and dropped them with a tinkle into the can.In the bone-chilling dusk,the bell kept ringing,and the child singing, loud and clear.

【范文】明星代言

Direction: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic Private School?You should write at least 150 words following the outline given below in Chinese:

1.當前，社會上有很多私立學校和培訓(xùn)學校;

2.私立學校的利與弊

3.你的看法

范文：

It can be noticed that a large number of private schools or training organizations become a new landscape in education.When you read newspapers, when you watch TV, when you walk on the road,you will inevitably see lots of advertisements about private schools.There are private schools mainly dealing with foreign languages,computers,music and sports.

However,is it a good or bad thing to have so many private schools? As a coin has two sides,so are the private schools.On the one hand,private schools can meet the special needs of the society or the particular requirements of people.On the other hand, they often bring people extra burden because of comparison and competition.

When asked to decide whether we should have a society without private schools or a society with private schools,I will not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter.Although attending a training course will result in the extra cost or burden,it is of tremendous merits in preparing my work and cultivating my skills.

【范文】讓驚喜傳達你的愛

Let the Surprise Speak of Your Love

In China, people are not used to saying out the word “l(fā)ove”, they don’t express their emotion strongly, it is Chinese tradition, people believe that deep love should be proved in action instead of speaking out, while I’d prefer to express our emotion by making surprise, because it impresses people.

在中國，人們不習慣講“愛”這個詞，他們不強烈地表達自己的感情，這是中國的傳統(tǒng)，人們相信深愛不應(yīng)該只是講講，要用行動表達，然而我比較喜歡通過制造驚喜來表達感情，因為這讓人們印象深刻。

There is a famous song “hard to speak out love”, many people have such experience, they want to let people know how much they love them, but it is so hard for them to express their love. Sometimes people can change their ways to show their love, they can give surprise, it is much better than the words, at the same time, surprise also solves the problem of speaking love words face to face.

有一首出名的歌“愛在心口難開”，很多人都有這樣的經(jīng)歷，他們想要讓人們知道自己有多愛他們，但是對于他們來說，表達自己的情感太難了。有時候人們可以改變一下他們表達愛的方式，他們可以制造驚喜，這比詞語好多了，同時，驚喜也可以解決當面講出愛的困境問題。　　

Surprise is a good way to show love, girls are especially like it. Surprise can bring about some positive effect, such as it promotes people’s communication, strengths their connection. Surprise is so romantic, if you are begging for forgiveness, it always works, because no girl can resist its charm.

驚喜是表達愛意的好方法，女孩們特別喜歡這樣的方式。驚喜可以帶來一些積極的效果，比如它促進了人們的交流，增強了他們的聯(lián)系。驚喜也很浪漫，如果你請求原諒，驚喜總是有效果的，因為沒有女孩子能抗拒它的魅力。

If we love someone, we should let them know our love, sometimes words are hard to say, but we can make surprise.

如果我們喜歡別人，就應(yīng)該讓他們知道我們的愛意，有時候很難用詞語表達，但是我們可以制造驚喜。

College Students'Living Condition

Recently, the living condition of some college students is frequently referred to as “dwelling-narrowness”. In fact, this embarrassing situation is very serious that few of us can fail to meditate on the causes of it.

In the first place, it's difficult for graduates to bear the high cost of life in big cities. Poor payment thus gives rise to bad living conditions. Next, college students are more ambitious. Many of them are eager to compete in big cities like Shanghai and Beijing, where talents are abundant and positions are limited. Refusing to go back hometown let them suffer in big cities, which indirectly make their situation worse.

Generally speaking, college students should be more qualified to better themselves and adjust their goals according to the reality.

【范文】On a Harmonious Dormitory Life

Dormitory life is an indispensable part of college life. But sometimes the harmony in the dormitory will be disturbed in one way or another.

As is known to all, a harmonious dormitory life is important to college students and benefits all the members. On the one hand, we can have a good rest and put our heart into study. On the other hand, we will have a good mood and enjoy being together.

There are several ways to create and maintain a harmonious dormitory life. Firstly, you have to evaluate your life style and try to get rid of your dirty habits, if there are any. Secondly, when an annoying situation arises, you’ll just have to learn to tolerate each other and co-exist. Thirdly, you’ll have to share with each other and make good friends. In conclusion, we should try our best to build a harmonious dormitory life for the sake of good study and good life.

【范文】Is A Test of Spoken English Necessary?

A test of spoken English will be included as an optional (component of the College English Test (CET). Some people contend that it is absolutely necessary to hold a test of spoken English in China because we have been told many times that a Chinese student who has been learning English for years cannot communicate with a native English speaker. Sometimes even those top students who excel at grammar and writing skills find their English inadequate to express their thoughts freely when speaking. A test of spoken English will bring the importance of speaking English to the awareness of the college students, and thus help them with their communicating skills.

On the other hand, there are also people who maintain that good reading and writing skills would be enough for the average English learners. College students are already under considerable pressure from their coursework. Another required test will only add to their burden. Also, some students may take the shortcut and only practice the questions according to the fixed format of the test, which will not actually improve their spoken English.

I believe that a test of spoken English will do more good than harm. Since China will continue its policy of opening and reform, the ability to speak fluent English is a must for anyone who wants to surpass others in a highly competitive society. Whether I take the test or not, I shall make all efforts to practice my spoken English in the rest years in college.

【范文】It pays to Be Honest

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.

【范文】What Makes People Tick?

All people have their own way of being in the world. It is easiest to comprehend this basic yet profound fact when we consider that every human being on the planet occupies a distinct role in the universe. We grow up in different environments, affected by a unique range of influences. The preferences, values, and beliefs we embrace are frequently related intimately to our origins. And the need to individualize our experiences is instinctive, as doing so enables us to cope when we must face challenges on our own. Consequently, each of us has developed a perspective that is uniquely ours. Interacting peacefully and constructively with people from all walks of life is a matter of first understanding where they are coming from. Then we can adjust our expectations so that we avoid making undue assumptions about what they are about.

In the face of emerging interpersonal conflict, it is easy to assume that others are being difficult, unreasonable, or stubborn. We are apt to grow frustrated when someone in our environment does not share our opinions or feel compelled to support us in our endeavors. It is likely that the individual or individuals before us may simply possess differing notions with regard to what is and what is not important in this life. We can ease the tension that exists between us by reaffirming our belief in the fundamental right of all beings to determine their own destinies. To foster a harmonious relationship, we need to do our best to relate to the unique universes they inhabit. And as we discover what makes them tick, our ability to find a mode of interaction that is pleasing to both of us is enhanced.

When there are barriers keeping you from connecting with someone else, think of questions you can ask them to gain a more thorough understanding of their point of view. You may discover that in addition to the differences in perspective dividing you, they are subject to insecurities and other personal issues that influence their way of seeing the world. It is likely that you will never fully grasp the myriad complexities embodied by humanity, but you can go a long way toward encouraging mutually satisfying relations by reaching out to others in the spirit of sympathetic comprehension.

【范文】Morning Dew

The world awakens each day from its nightly slumber, transformed by a sparkling layer of morning dew on the grass, on flower petals and leaves, on cars and car windows. These glistening droplets last only a little while, an integral part of what imbues the early morning with its aura of magic. If we sleep too late, we miss the magnificent display of sunlight playing upon an infinite amount of tiny crystal balls. To step onto the dew-covered grass is to anoint our feet with a form of water that comes only once a day for a short time, a rarefied gift of the night air that will soon evaporate in the full light of the sun. If we inhale slowly and consciously enough, it is almost as if we are drinking in this magical elixir formed in the boundary between darkness and light.

In one myth, morning dew is believed to be tears from heaven, and in another, the droplets are poured from the vessel of the goddess of dawn. When we see the earth draped with these shimmering drops, it is easy to imagine fairies bathing in the water, or a sky god weeping from a longing to be closer to his beloved earth goddess. Seeing the sparkling beauty of the earth emerging from darkness, we may understand this longing in terms of our own gratitude; how blessed we are to be here.

Perhaps heaven really does long to be here on earth, and perhaps that is why we are heres conduits between the divine and the earthbound. As we drink the morning dew in with our eyes, our skin, our breath, it is easy to imagine that it really is a magical potion, a gift from heaven, a reminder of our true purpose, and a daily opportunity to be transformed.

【范文】Importance of Education

China, as a developing country, is determined to catch up with and even surpass the developed ones. I think that one of the best possible ways to do so is to give first priority(優(yōu)先)to the development of culture, science and especially education.

In modern times, when science and technology are making great progress, the education of the work force is of primary importance. Moreover, many of the success in advanced countries have demonstrated that a nation 's prosperity mainly depends on the quality of its labour force, namely those who have been well educated.

In a developing country such as China, our investment in culture, education and science, and especially elementary education, must enjoy top priority. This is crucial(決定性的)for China to catch up with the developed nations in today's surging(洶涌的) waves of technological revolution. Otherwise, the gap between China and advanced countries will be widened rather than bridged.

【范文】量體裁衣

This cartoon is silly, and yet compelling: a large customer holds a hopelessly small piece of cloth as the tailor carefully measures. Such an image suggests that one needs to consider practical reality in the pursuance of goals. Merely acting on one's desires, while ignoring the facts at hand, cannot lead to success.

The fact that currently there are more graduates than jobs reminds us of the importance of rational thinking. Every year approximately 3 million students graduate from universities and begin looking for work. Many of them fail to find suitable employment because there are simply not enough opportunities to accommodate such great numbers of graduates. In addition, however, one might also cite flawed individual assessment as a reason.

In order to create a realistic target for one's future, one must make rational decisions and prepare accordingly. A student who aims to be a surgeon, for example, must take care to acquire opportunities to do clinical practice and gain sufficient knowledge. In other words, customers would do well to take accurate measurements before purchasing their fabric. A small piece of cloth cannot adequately clothe a large person.

Be Yourself

In every school a “top” crowd sets the pace, while the others follow their lead.Let’s say the top crowd decides that it is smart to wear bright red sweaters. Pretty soon everybody is wearing a bright red sweater. There is nothing wrong with that, except the fact that on some people a bright red sweater is extremely unbecoming. The situation can even become dangerous, if the top crowd decides that it is smart to drink or to drive cars at seventy miles an hour. Then the people who follow the lead are endangering their lives. They are like the sheep being led to the butcher.

Now, chances are that you have come across situations like these more than once in your life; chances are that one time or another you probably did something you knew to be wrong. You may have excused yourself by saying, “Gee, the crowd does it.” Well, let the crowd do it, but don’t do it yourself. Learn to say, “No.”

Develop your own standards and your own judgment. If you know the crowd is planning something you disagree with, have the courage to bow out politely. You’ll have the satisfaction of standing on your own two feet. Remember this in your heart, you are the unique one in the world, just be yourself.

【范文】Online Education

Nowadays, online education has become very popular among people. According to a recent survey conducted by CCTV, the past five years has witnessed a sharp increase in the number of people who has once received this kind of education, to an astonishing number of 9,745,000.

To account for this phenomenon, people have come up with various reasons listed below. To begin with, compared with having classes at school, online education saves us time, energy and money, especially for those who are too busy to have full-time education. What’s more, the schedule is flexible so that we can have a free choice to study what we need in urgency and decide when, where and how to study.

As far as I am concerned，I appreciate this new form of education and also have got some benefits from it. It’s indeed a helpful complement to the traditional education.1、心態(tài)哲理話題

“Give me six hours to chop down a tree , and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.”Abraham Lincoln once said. Although four hours seem to be quite a long time, it can help people chop down the tree more smoothly and less laboriously in the rest two hours. It is obvious that a full preparation can enhance the efficiency of trees-chopping.

The saying aims at informing us of the significance of adequate preparation. Definitely , we can’t emphasize the importance of full preparation too much in our pursuit of success. A full preparation enables us to achieve our objectives and realize our dreams more smoothly and rapidly. The more preparation we make, the more likely we are to become confidence, reduce the risks of failure and seize the fleeting opportunities. For example, when graduates hunt for jobs, it is those who are well prepared that can surpass other candidates and get the offer finally.

Accordingly, at no time should we overlook the power of preparation. Besides, we need to set up a proper goal, carry out a full investigation and elaborate a detailed plan before we take actions. “Preparation breeds success.” Benjamin Franklin also once said.

“給我留個小時砍掉一棵樹，那么我會花前面的四個小時來磨斧子?！眮啿?林肯曾經(jīng)說過。雖然四個小時看起來是挺長的一段時間，然而它卻可以幫助人們在剩余的兩個小時內(nèi)更加順利和省力地砍掉樹木。很明顯，充分的準備工作可以提高砍樹的效率。

這句話目的在于高速我們充分準備的重要性。確實，沒有人可以否認充分準備在我們追求成功過程中的重要性。充分準備可以使我們更加順利和快速地達成目標、實現(xiàn)夢想。我們做的準備越多，我們就更有可能變得自信、減少失敗的風險并且抓住稍縱即逝的機會。舉個例子，當畢業(yè)生在找工作的時候，正是那些做了充分準備的人才可以超越其他的候選人并且最終贏得工作機會。

From the cartoon given above, we can observe that there are two people watching Peking Opera. With the actress performing vividly on the stage, the old man is watching attentively. However, the little boy sitting beside does not even cast a glance at the actress and falls sleepy. It is obvious that he shows no interest in Peking Opera.

The cartoon reflects an interesting and usual respect of daily life. However, from a deeper perspectives, it also reveals the gradual loss of traditional culture in modern society. What exactly contribute to this phenomenon ? Possible reasons could be listed as follows: for one thing, quite a few people, especially youngsters, hold that Chinese traditional culture is out-dated and of little use in modern society. Perhaps, from their perspective, traditional culture form the distant past can hardly adapt to or keep pace with the ever-changing new world. Moreover, exotic cultures, to some extent, have also posed a great challenge to the traditional culture of China. As we can see, a large body of people have been attracted by foreign cultures which feature diversity, novelty and richness —Crazy fans of foreign TV programs, electronic products or even ways of life abound in our daily life.

However, no one can deny the significance of Chinese traditional culture. It is the crystallization of Chinese wisdom and civilization. An individual or nation showing no respect to the essence of traditional culture cannot be expected to develop and be stronger. Hence, something could and should be done to reverse the inexorable decline in the emphasis of Chinese traditional culture.

參考譯文：

如上圖所示，我們可以看到有兩個人正在看京劇。當女演員生動地在舞臺上表演，老者專心致志地看著。然而，坐在邊上的小男孩甚至都沒有瞥一眼女演員并且睡著了。很明顯，他對京劇沒有什么興趣。

這幅圖畫反應(yīng)了日常生活中有趣而又平常的一面。然而，從更為深層的角度來看，它也揭示了現(xiàn)代社會中的傳統(tǒng)文化的流失。是什么導(dǎo)致了這個現(xiàn)象?是什么導(dǎo)致了這個現(xiàn)象?可能的理由可以羅列如下：首先，相當多的人，尤其是年輕人，認為中國傳統(tǒng)文化在現(xiàn)代社會中過時而且沒有什么用了。也許，在他們看來，來自遙遠的過去的傳統(tǒng)文化幾乎是不能適應(yīng)和跟得上持續(xù)變化的新世界的。再者，外來文化也在某種程度上對傳統(tǒng)文化造成了巨大的威脅。正如我們所能看見的，相當多的人已經(jīng)被以多樣性、新穎性和豐富性為特征的國外文化吸引了—對國外電視節(jié)目，電子產(chǎn)品甚至是生活方式狂熱的粉絲在我們生活中比比皆是。

然而，沒有人可以否認傳統(tǒng)文化的重要性。它是中國智慧和文明的結(jié)晶。一個不尊重傳統(tǒng)文化的精髓的民族和個人是無法發(fā)展和強大的。因此，我們可以也應(yīng)該做一些事情，來扭轉(zhuǎn)現(xiàn)在人們對中國傳統(tǒng)文化的重視的不可遏制的下降。

From the cartoon given above，we can observe that there are many people in a bus. When seeing that an elder man is entering into the bus, the old man near the seat just stands up instantly, says “ please have a seat here” and offers his seat to the elder one. However, all of the other people around, young and healthy, show no intention of giving seats to the old and infirm man.

The cartoon aims at informing us of the phenomenon of the gradual loss of social morality. Quite a few people today are selfish and egocentric. when putting self-interest in the first place, they tend to overlook others’ benefit or feelings and become nonchalant. Moreover, this phenomenon can also be attributed to people’s concern that their social morality, which can be best expressed through kindness, hospitality and warm-hearted behaviors, will sometimes invite unnecessary trouble.

However，no one can deny the importance of social morality. It is conducive to the harmony of society, people equipped with the awareness of social morality are more likely to provide others with a helping hand, endeavor to abide by social orders and curb on their undesirable behaviors. Confronted with the inexorable decline in the emphasis of social ethics, we should adopt some measures to reverse the current situation.

參考譯文：

根據(jù)上面所給的這幅漫畫，我們看到有很多人在bus上。當看到有個老者正進入車子，一旁的老人馬上站了起來，并說：“請坐我的位置”然后把座位讓了出來。然而，周圍其余的所有人，他們年輕而且健康，卻沒有顯示出任何想要給這位年長且虛弱的老人讓位的想法。

這幅漫畫旨在告訴我們一個現(xiàn)象，關(guān)于社會公德的逐漸缺失?，F(xiàn)在相當多的人都很自私，以自我為中心。而當把自己的個人利益放在首位的時候，他們往往就會忽略別人的利益和感受并且變得冷漠。再者，這個現(xiàn)象也可以歸因于人們的某種擔心，他們擔心通過友善、熱忱和熱心的行為而得到良好展示的社會公德心，有些時候反倒會給他們帶來不必要的麻煩。

然而，沒有人可以忽略社會公德的重要性。它有利于社會和諧，擁有社會公德意識的人們更有可能為別人提供援助之手，努力地遵守社會規(guī)則并且約束自己的不良行為。面對對社會公德的重要性的不可抑制的下滑，政府應(yīng)該開展大規(guī)模的教育運動來營造出一種尊重社會公德的氛圍。與此同時，我們自己也應(yīng)該提高意識。

For a number of years, there has been a steady rise in the number of rural laborers who flood into big cities. Many men work on construction sites, while many women work as dishwashers in restaurants or babysitters for city dwellers. Three reasons, in my mind, can account for this social phenomenon.

First and foremost, the limited land can no longer produce enough crops for an ever-increasing rural population. In the second place, there are far more opportunities in big cities—rural laborers dream of earning money through hard work. Last but by no means least, many of them want to live permanently in big cities, because they admire the way of living there, and wish their children to receive good education.

I firmly believe that if we try our best to create a healthy social atmosphere, rural laborers will make greater contribution to our nation.

The population on earth is increasing rapidly, and with the developmcnr of modern industry, more and more people are flowing into cities. So, the housing problem in big cities is becoming more and more serious.

There have been many suggested solutions to this problem. And I'm in favour of the idea of building satellite cities in suburbs. The fresh air and beautiful scenery will attract people to leave the overcrowded city. With many people leaving the city, more space will be available for those remaining. We can find a lot of successful examples in other coun tries which solve the housing problem by building satellite cities.

Meantime, I don't think developing to the underground will help solve the problem. I can hardly imagine that people will like to live under the ground, withoul the sky and the sun. It will make people feel totally uncomfortable.

The building of satellite cities is a good way to solve the housing problem. It will not only relieve the burden on the big city, but also provide a much better environment for people to live. Of course, there is no perfect way to solve the problem. The housing problem is very complicated, involving many other problems such as traffic, you cannol rely on one way to solve the problem completely.
