Making a phone or writing a letter
When you want to connect someone ,you would like to make a phone or write a letter .Some people like making a phone while others prefer writing a letter.
The advantage of phoning is obvious ,it is handy and fast. We can connect whoever we want to and talk with him right away. By making phones calls, people can discuss things conveniently. However, some people prefer to write letters. There is no doubt that letters are less expensive than long-distance calls. In addition, it is a better choice for those who are not good at expressing themselves orally, but it takes days for a letter to reach its destination.
Both making a phone call and writing a letter are effective means of communication . It seems advisable to make use of them both on different occasions.
Should college students should do part-time jobs
Lt is a hot topic about college students should do part –time job or not .However, different students have different opinions about it.
Some students think that college students do part-time job can support themselves and reduce the burden of family .In addition ,they can get some experience of work and get in touch with society through part-job.
Some students hold a view that it‟s not easy to find suitable for students.Some jobs requiring long hours of tedious work under tough conditions may do harm to their health .Besides ,some jobs may lead them to the negative aspects of society –dishonesty and corruption.
As far as l am concerned ,students should take a second thought in deciding whether they should do part-job or do what kind of jobs. A college student can benefit from a good part- time job ,otherwise ,who may waste the time and energy.
Electricity and Life

A thirsty world
Now the world is very thirsty for water .Though nearly 75% of the earth‟s surface is covered with water, about 97percent of this huge amount is seawater. Man can only drink and use the fresh water from rivers, lakes ,underground and other sources. But unfortunately ,some of it has been polluted and is unfit for drinking .As our need of water is increasing rapidly, we must take necessary measures to protect the fresh water sources.
Some measures can be taken, one of the first steps we should take is to develop ways of reusing water. Today in most big cities water is used only once and then discharged. But it is possible to pipe water that has been used to a purify plant ,and then it can be used again. Another way is changing seawater into fresh water.
Turn off your mobile phone
As the information technology is rapidly developed and the price of communication products low down, the mobile phone has become a necessity for people .lt is that shortens the distance between people and makes our life more convenient .Due to it ,it „s easy for us to contact others anytime and anywhere.
However, some phenomena make people angry .For example , you can see people pressing the mobile phone to his ear and shouting loudly in public. It is more than likely that you have noticed that the mobile phones ring continuously on a formal occasion .People around them have to listen to the noise and they can‟t concentrate on what they‟re doing.

Education-preparation for society\
Nowadays children are in school to be educated, so as to fit them for life ,but just educate them .
With the development of society ,many young people have more opportunities to receive college education. However, the society can not provide enough jobs for them with university degrees, so it is difficult for graduates to find a suitable job, besides ,they refuse to do what they think “low” jobs- work with hands is thought to be indecent.
As we all know ,jobs are necessary for society ,so we should hold a good attitude towards our job when choosing a career.
The young and the old
Lf the young man starts to earn own living ,he will be free from discipline of school and parents ,however, he is forced to accept responsibilities. He can no longer expect others to pay for his everything ,including the food ,the clothes ,and his room, but he has to work hard if he wants to live comfortably. A man who is out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of seeing himself make steady progress in his job, and building up his own position in society.
Maybe some old people are in sick, but it is not always unhappy. When the old see their making progress in life and watch grandchildren growing up around ,they will feel happiness.
How to cope with stress
In modern society ,everyone is faced with various stress, which can be a friend or an enemy .For examples, when a businessman suffer from stress ,he may be work harder ,otherwise he may get little happiness in his life. If a student is under heavy pressure ,he will spend more time studying ,on the other hand ,he may become negative .
Ho wever, when you find you can‟t relax ,it is a sign of danger., you must adjust yourself to good conditions through some ways .Such as ,you can join a relaxation class, or taking up dancing ,painting or gardening, especially talking to your parents or friends can help you a lot.
How to behave in an interview
lf you leave a good impression to an interviewer, you may get your job.Before an interview ,you must prepare yourself for it, for example you‟d better arrive in plenty of time for the interview ,so that you give yourself a little time to relax and find some rules about the company.
In most of interviews ,you will have to do a lot of talking ,so you need to plan what to say ,such as answering a few questions about your education ,experience ,schoolwork ,strong points and the reasons for applying for the job ,in addition ,the salary you expect.
You will also be allowed to ask some questions ,you can ask questions like these:What duties will I have to do in the job? Does the company provide health insurance ?Does the company provide opportunities for further education ?
Sport and sportsmen
In the past,the “sport ”meant that people do something in their free time.Later it often meant hunting wild animals and birds.But from a hundred years ago,it means organized games.
Nowadays more and more people like sports, on one hand, they spend much spare time playing football,basketball,tennis and many other sports ,just because they like.On the other hand,they do sports as a job,these people called professional sportsmen,who must spend most of time exercising and joining many games.
A famous sportsman can earn lots of money from games if he or she becomes the winners.For examples ,a professional footballer in England earns more than 150,000pounds a year.International golf and tennis champions can make more than 5000,000pounds in a year,but it is only possible thing in spots for individual,like golf ,tennis and motor racing.In addition ,the stars can earn more money from advtising than from sport.
Careering hopping
Today , people are always changing their jobs due to different reasons ,most of them are about the unsatisfied salary, the work of time , the holiday and so on .
Job changes and careers shifts occur at all ages. Lt is assessed that one
out of four male workers between the ages of twenty and twenty-five
change their lines of work. About half that number do so between the
ages of twenty-five and forty-four ,Some married women combine child-rearing
responsibilities with new career lines.
As motives for changing careers vary widely, many people leave for a new job just
because they are tired of the dull routine.
The pleasures and pains of childhood
When coming to our childhood, we may recall many interesting things.
As a child ,he is looked after well and loved by good parents.Sometimes a child may come across some difficulties during childhood ,however, who can always get a lot of help to solve the prombles.In addition,a child is usually curious about everything ,and he can find pleasure in playing in the rain, sand or in the snow.
But a child has his pains :he is not so free to do as he wishes as he thinks older people are:he is continually being told not to do things,or being punished for what he has done wrong.His life is therefore not perfectly happy.
A letter of complaint
Dear Sir,
I am writing to complaint about one of your bus drive, who was so rude to the passengers.
The day before yesterday ,I was taking the bus NO.3 to the street .It was about 10:00 in the morning .It was not the rush-hour and there not many passengers on the bus. But the driver drove so fast and he didn‟t slow down even when the bus turned round street corners .One of the passengers asked him to drive slowly but he did not listen. When the bus reached the next stop ,a man stood up and walk toward the door. The driver stepped the bus so suddenly that the man could not keep his balance and fell on the floor .The driver didn‟t make an apology and asked him to get off the bus right away.
I hope proper measures ought to be taken to prevent such incidents from happening again.
Yours sincerely

Online Chatting
Nowadays online chatting is becoming a very popular way of communication, especially among youngsters. People can do lots of things through it ,such as making friends ,exchanging information and airing their views. It is easier to talk with a stranger online ,so people tend to regard it as a means of relaxation .In addition ,some students practice their oral English by chatting in English.
However, different people hold different views.Some people think it‟s a waste of time,especially for students .They may be addicted to it if spending too much time chatting online.What‟s more,unhealthy information may corrupt young Internet users and affect their studies.
As a coin has two sides ,online chatting has both advantages and disadvantages.We should hold an attitude that controlling ourselves to reduce the negative effects to the minimum,and making online chatting as beneficial as possible to our life and studies ,but stop ourselves from it due to its negative effects.
My view on E-Mail
Nowadays e-mail is a new way of communication by means of computer ,and it is becoming more popular all over the world .
We can send and receive documents by e-mail conveniently, besides ,we can send e-mail to anyone in other countries in no time. By e-mail we can also store ,delete, compile information .In a word ,e-mail helps you overcome spatial and time limitations in communication .
As computer is widely used , we expect that e-mail plays a more and more important role in our lives , helping us express quickly and freely .
My favorite mode of travel
Nowadays traveling is more and more popular all over the world. Some people like joining package tours for convenience‟ sake ,but I prefer to travel by myself .
I like traveling on my own not only because it costs less but because it gives me freedom. On my own, I can decide when to start and where to linger .By contrast, you should be supposed to followed the agenda of the tour team in a packaged tour.
In fact, you will find many inconveniences if you travel alone, such as finding a place for meals and getting accommodations for the night ,but I can overcome everything, comparing with package tour .I think ,traveling alone is more exciting and fantastic.
The purpose of school
We send our children to school to make themselves educated,when they will be big and they can work for themselves .They learn the languages in order to make themselves understood .Now they learn foreign languages so that they can benefit from what people in other countries have written and said ,and in order to make people from other countries understand what they themselves mean.
They learn arithmetic in order to be able to measure and count things in their daily life , geography in order to know something about the world ,and history to know something about human beings they meet every day.Nearly everthing they study at school has some practical use in their life.But that is not the only reason why they go to school.
There is more in education than just learning facts. However,we go to school to learn how to learn, so that we can continue learn when we left school.A man who really knows how to learn will always be successful, because whenever he has to do something new which he has never had to do before,he will rapidly teach himself how to do it in the best way.

Living in a city a crazy idea
Nowadays more and more people are leaving cities. As we all know ,the city is always so crowed ,specially during the rush hour.
Lt‟s not strange for people complain about the living condition in the city .Many good things of life like sunshine and fresh air are a premium. Tall buildings blot out the sun ,the flow of traffic goes on continuously and the noise never stops ,so there is much convenience living in a city .
However ,some rich people with their children start to live in countryside to spend their spare time ,in order to have a nice time there.
