For a better understanding between parents and children

（Generation Gap）

范文一

Nowadays ，there is often a lack of understanding between parents and children. Children always complain that their parents are out of date， while parents can't approve of what their children say and do. Thus ，a big generation gap is formed.

The gap remains wide for many reasons. Children want to be free to choose their own friends ， select their own classes in school， plan their own future ， earn and spend their own money ，and generally run their own life in a more independent way than many parents allow. Also， young children wish to be understood by their parents， but most parents don't quite understand their children. They regard it as their responsibility to teach their offspring traditional beliefs. They want them to be obedient and do well in school . Therefore ， misunderstanding often arise from parents' tendency to interfere in children's daily activities. In my opinion， most problems between parents and children could be solved by joint efforts of both sides to enhance mutual understanding.

范文二

Nowadays there is often a lack of understanding between parent and child. Parents often complain about their children's "unreasonable" behavior, while children usually think their parents too "old-fashioned." Then, when a child has a problem, he usually goes to his intimate friends for sympathy and advice, leaving his parents totally in the dark.

There are some possible reasons for the present situation. First, the two generations, having grown up at different times, have different likes and dislikes for the things around them and thus have little in common to talk about. Second, parents and children, due to the misunderstanding between them, may even feel it uncomfortable to sit face to face with each other talking. Finally, with the pace of modern life becoming faster and faster, both parent and child are too busy to spare enough time to exchange ideas, even if they find it necessary to communicate. As a result, the gap between them is growing wider and wider.

To bridge this so-called generation gap, in my opinion, both parent and child should make an effort. The children should respect their seniors. The older generation, on the other hand, should show solicitude for the young. As for their differences, both generations should make allowance for each other. If they will take the first step by actually talking to one another, it won't be long before the arrival of a better understanding between parent and child.

Energy problem

范文一

how to solve the energy problem

1. 有人认为解决能源危机的方法是厉行节约。

2. 有人则认为开发新能源是最好的办法。

3. 我的方法。

Nowadays, the world is facing the big problem of energy shortages. The energy that we can use is running out day by day. Maybe one day we will all end up drinking dirty water if we don't do something about it. Here are some things that everyone can do to help save energy.

First, we must try to use our air conditioner less during the summer months, as this consumes a great deal of electricity. Second, we should try to remember to use less water while washing our hair. Third, we must not let leaky taps run all day. We should fix them as soon as possible. We should, also, try to close the fridge as quickly as possible. This will save a lot of electricity and is good for the fridge as well. Another thing we can do is to ride our bicycles instead of driving cars or riding buses. They "drink" lots of petrol, which comes from oil, a nonrenewable (adj. 不可再生的) energy resource. Finally, don't forget to turn off the lights when leaving a room. It doesn't take much time, but saves a lot of electricity.

I hope more and more people will realize the importance of saving energy and do what they can to use

less so that life will be good in the future.

How to Solve the Energy Problem

When asked about one of the biggest problems today, many people say that an energy crisis is approaching and threatening mankind’s survival. They are afraid that the world is likely to run out of oil and metals and to run short of food in the near future.

To this problem, most countries respond with the demand for more rigid conservation of our natural resources. Indeed, this is urgently needed, for the present waste of energy in industrial and personal consumption is so serious that it has become habitual and traditional. If the natural resources are used economically, we can certainly slow down the present drain on the limited energy supply. However, conservation alone is not the answer. It is obvious that even if we can save much energy, we can only delay the energy crisis, but cannot solve the problem completely. No matter how abundant certain natural resources may be, they cannot reproduce themselves and are bound to be used up ultimately. So in the long run we must develop new sources of energy instead of merely conserving the known, limited supplies.

Man is highly adaptable and creative, and since he is able to tap such resources as oil and metals, why can’t he develop and harness solar energy, nuclear energy and other unknown energy resources?

Is celebrating western holiday acceptable

或者 Should Chinese celebrate western holiday？

As we know, there are so many festivals in the entire world, including Chinese traditional festivals and Western festivals. I strongly disagree to celebrate western holidays in China.

0n the one hand, western festivals have the cultural and historical origins in the western countries, which are not known and comprehended by Chinese people. There are so many western festivals, including Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and Saint Valentine's Day and so on, which are originated from or related with Christian or Catholicism which are not believed in by the majority of Chinese people. We could not gain the happy feeling since we could not understand these holidays’ meanings.

On the other hand, there are negative aspects on unhealthy people in the western festivals which should not be celebrated by us. All Saints Day is a very thrilling festival, in which people put the horrible or sinister mask upon their faces. Though these kinds of actions help people to boost their courage, it is dangerous to the unhealthy people or ill people with heart diseases. If they encounter the people with a vivid skeleton mask on face suddenly without any caution, it is very likely that they would be threatened and fainting on the floor.

To sum up, there are different kinds of meaningful and adequate festivals in China. Obviously, western festivals, with negative effects on the unhealthy and cultural background being unknown to Chinese people, should not be celebrated by us.

Studying abroad or not

1有学生想出国留学，原因是 2有的不想，原因是 3我的观点

At present, some Chinese students are crazy for studying abroad. Some of them tend to think that studying abroad is the best way to develop themselves. It may be the following reason let them hold that view: Firstly, studying abroad can improve their oral English and listening comprehension; Secondly, with economic development, increasing income of some parents make it possible that they can sent their child abroad.

On the contrary, other people have different opinion. They argued that it is hard to say whether oversea students can benefit from studying abroad or not. They pointed out that it is not good for oversea students if they could not adapt to new circumstance as fast as possilbe.Additionally,they will face some great challenges to communicate with foreigners at the very beginning. What’s more, in their opinion, studying abroad will make a lot of money run off.

As far as I am concerned, I am in favor of the latter. The reasons is that we can study well our English

in our country as long as we have good habit of studying English. And also, our country is developing with high speed, it will be more and more strong and advanced, and it also provides not a little opportunity to us. In a word, I believed that we can develop ourselves in home as well as in other country.

Studying abroad 国外学习的利与弊

范文一

In recent years, studying abroad has been popular in our country. More and more middle school students would like to go abroad through mediators. Is it good or bad to study abroad? In my opinion, on one hand, it has some advantages. Studying abroad can provide better studying conditions. People can make rapid progress in their foreign language study and it can also help widen their field of vision. Meanwhile, young students can learn advanced science and technology from foreign countries and spread cultures of different nations.

On the other hand, it has disadvantages. For example, because of the lack of living experience and poor capability to take care of themselves, they may feel lonely and homesick. In addition, high living expenses and tuition fees will become a heavy burden upon their parents.

So I think whether studying abroad or not should be decided according to oneself and one's family. It is not right to follow others.

范文二

In recent years, studying abroad has been popular. More and more students leave their own country to go abroad for their further education. They say that they can develop better with advanced facilities and teaching methods in those modern schools. By communicating with foreign students or staying a long time with them, a profitable experience is available to them. By the time they come back home, they are supposed to have a great advantage over the students at home in many ways. I quite agree with what they say. But one fact I’d like to remind them of is that quite a number of overseas students stay abroad disappointed as they can’t obtain what they hope for, let alone success. When they are abroad, they are helpless and have to be independent, which is quite contrary to what it is at home. They lack independence; they can’t even tell right and wrong apart, and as a result some of them even commit crimes. Therefore, whether it is good or not to study abroad depends on the individual. So take more factors into careful consideration.

The number of Chinese studying abroad has exceeded 30 million. At the same time China has received a total of nearly 40 million students from more than 150 countries and regions.

Chinese language will play a very important role in the carrier. From the fact listed above, we can draw the conclusion that the number of people learning Chinese around the world is increasing.

The expansion of enrollment

1大学扩招的优缺点 2我的看法

Many colleges and universities have expanded their enrollment since 1998. The reasons for the expansion are as follows. Firstly, they want to keep up with the need of the job market to produce more qualified people to take up the jobs. Secondly, the expansion has entitled many high school graduates to the right of receiving higher education. Last but not least, it can raise the intellectual standards of our nation.

However, studies show that the trend to expand has brought about many problems. For instance, the teaching facilities and accommodation capacities of many colleges and universities are limited and are unable to meet the demand of an ever-increasing number of the newly enrolled students. On the other hand, the average quality of the freshmen is declining. In the long run, hunting for a job will be a tough thing for the graduates and that will inevitably exert much pressure on the prospects of employment.

In spite of all this, I am still confident that the expansion of enrollment is of great benefit to our society and is a good thing. With the development of our national economy, the problem as mentioned above will be solved if proper measures are taken.

On the increasing numbers of travelers

或者Travels on Holidays in China

Nowadays, more and more people like to travel in their holidays. The other day I read a report about the ways people spend their holidays. It is reported that in recent years several new holiday habits have been developed. Among them, the most interesting one is the growth of the so-called holiday camps.

Why do so many people like traveling ? I think there are several reasons. First, with the rapid development of economy, people can afford to travel. Second, people prefer to pursue a high-quality and colorful life. Third, their attitudes to relaxation have changed. Less people want to save much money by leading a simple life. In short, people's living standard today has been rising greatly.

Jobs for Graduates

1、大学生难找工作，2、原因很多，3、解决的办法。

Job hunting has always been a headache for college students. Though many graduates are employed right after graduation, some are not. Most serious of all, some still have no idea where to go working even a long time after graduation.

The reasons for this phenomenon are various. On the one hand, a few years ago colleges and universities enrolled many students in popular majors, such as economy, finance and so on. As a result, the number of graduates was greater than the need in the market. On the other hand, most graduates would rather stay in large cities without suitable job to do than go to the country.

I reckon this problem can be solved if both colleges and students take measures. First, they should research the market and develop special skills to suit its need. Second, students’ attitude towards employment should be changed. They should go to small cities and country. There they can also give full play to their professional knowledge. To sum up, if we all pay much attention, the situation can be improved.

Cyber Crimes

1) 随着互联网的普及和应用，网络犯罪开始摆在世人面前

2) 应该如何来打击和预防网络犯罪越来越成为人们必须要解决的一个难题

3) 作为大学生，你应该怎么做？

With the popularization of the Internet, cyber crimes have become a serious problem facing us. Nowadays cyber criminals seem to be everywhere on the Internet. As a result, these crimes destroy network security greatly and make computer users suffer great losses。

However, we shouldn’t tolerate these cyber criminals any more. It’s high time for us to take effective measures to fight against cyber crimes. First, we should reinforce the cyber laws to punish cyber criminals strictly. Moreover, we should develop high techniques as soon as possible to improve intrusion detection and prevent cyber crimes. Besides, more talented people should be trained and more effective firewalls should be built up so as to make the net immune to all kinds of viruses。

As college students, we have responsibility to join the battle against cyber crimes. For one thing, we should not use others’ computers unless we get permission. For another, we should be honest to others on the Internet and not release or spread unreal information. In a word, it takes our common efforts to defeat cyber crimes。

作文十一

Knowledge and Diploma

1. 目前社会上存在这样一种说法：文凭越高越吃香

2. 而有些人则认为文凭不等于知识

3. 你的观点

It is generally believed that a high diploma guarantees a promising future. Some people identify high diplomas with profound knowledge and exceptional competence. Companies also tend to emphasize the academic achievement of a job candidate. Like it or not, there does exist a social reality – the higher diplomas one gets, the more popular he becomes.

On the contrary, other people claim that a high diploma doesn’t automatically translate into knowledge. A diploma, in their eyes, is only the acknowledgment of one’s educational experience rather than a guarantee of one’s ability. Therefore, we can never measure the depth of one’s knowledge by the grade of one’s diploma. Besides, many knowledgeable people don’t have a high diploma. Take Bill Gates for example. His dropping out of college cannot deny the fact that he is one of the world’s most learned men.

So I must say no one should ever equate a diploma with knowledge, because a diploma is nothing but a proof of a short-term study while genuine knowledge needs one’s lifelong devotion.

Say “Thank You” to Parents

1. 很多的大学生从未跟父母道过谢 2. 请说明原因 3. 你的建议

According to a recent survey involving over 3000 undergraduates, 35% of university students have never said “Thank you” to their parents. Their parents have done all they could to bring them up in the past score of years, but have never been rewarded with gratitude.

The reasons for this phenomenon are as follows. First and foremost, a quarter of the interviewed students regard it as parents’ duty to support them spiritually and financiall y. And it is not necessary to express appreciation to their parents. However, the majority of youngsters are aware of their parents’ tender love but are not accustomed to saying “Thank you”. Some even find a generation gap between themselves and their parents, thus feeling reluctant to express their affection for their parents.

In my opinion, extending thankfulness to our parents is a way of respecting them and their love. We should express our feelings directly and bravely. What’s more important, we should do all that we can to reward them.

Attend Your Classes Regularly

1) 大学校园里，迟到，早退，旷课是常见的现象。

2) 保证学生出勤水平对大学教育的重要性。

3) 作为学生应该怎样做。

Nowadays it is a very common phenomenon for some college students to be late for or even be absent from their classes. And still there are some students who slip out of the classroom before the class is over. Class attendance has become a terrible problem to both the students and the teachers.

In fact, it is very important for the students to attend their classes regularly. First, it will ensure you to catch up with the teachers in your learning. That is very helpful to you if you want to do a good job in your study. Second, attending classes regularly is a way of showing respect to your teachers, too. Your teachers will feel bad if the students do not attend their classes, which, in return, will affect their teaching and be no good for both the students. Third, attending classes regularly will help to form a good habit of punctuality, which is of great importance for the students to do a good job in the future.

Therefore, we college students should form the good habit of attending our classes regularly from now on. And some day we will benefit from it.

Fast Food

1. 快餐在中国十分流行 2. 快餐受欢迎的原因 3. 我对快餐的看法

Fast food is becoming more and more popular in China, especially among children and teenagers. Today, nothing is more representative of the fast pace of modern society than fast food.

There are several reasons for its popularity. First, it is quick and convenient. When you go into a fast food restaurant, your food will be ready in a minute. You can satisfy your hunger instantly. Precious time won't be wasted in waiting-in-line to order or waiting at your table for your food to arrive. Second, its popularity is also attributed to the clean food, the excellent service and the comfortable environment of the fast food restaurant.

However, I think that fast food isn't healthy enough because it does not compose a balanced diet and is low in nutrition. Doctors suggest that people should avoid eating too much fast food. Although home cooking is time-consuming, it offers healthy and delicious meals your body needs. Fast food is only a good choice when you are in a hurry and we should turn to it only once in a while.
