Students can considerably improve their academic performance if they study with great interest. Therefor

2、e, educators are striving to find ways to help arouse students interest in various subjects. Some propose that no means is better to increase students interest than teaching them the importance of the subject outside of school. However, I have different opinion.Do you agree or disagree with the foll

3、owing statement: The main role of a university professor is to educate students rather than to do research.Universities are places where foundations of academic study are cultivated and it is no question that professors play an important role in the education quality at the university. Among the tas

4、ks that professors undertake every day, researching and teaching activities take up most of their time. Some people would say that professors should focus more on teaching than research. I disagree. I believe that in order to enrich the learning experience of college students, a professor should foc

5、us a significant amount of time on his or her research.Although science and technology will continue to improve, the most significant improvement for the quality of people's lives have already taken place.The development of science and technology has always accompanied the progress of human soci

6、ety. The 21st century has seen leaps and bounds advancement of science and technology, making peoples lives more and more efficient and convenient. Some people are wondering whether science and technology will keep on improving. As for me, I believe many significant innovations will continue to occu

An effective leader should try to make others feel that they are part of the decision making process.Leaders play a profound role in the success of a

8、 group. Due to this, the strategy of a leader is at the frontline of public debate. So there is a controversy whether effective leaders should let group members feel they participated in the process of decision making or not. From my point of view, good leaders should try to make group members feel

9、they are part of the process of decision making. My reasons and examples listed below will strengthen my point.Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Newspapers and magazines are the best ways to learn about a foreign country.With the increasing development of technology, we now have

10、 the ability to acquire much information from foreign media sources. Because we can learn much about events happening in other countries from the mass media, such as magazines and newspapers, many people may think that reading magazines and newspapers is the best way to learn about a foreign country

11、. However, I believe that only reading magazines and newspapers as a way of learning about a foreign country has several limitations.練習(xí)：Young people today are more likely to help others than in the past.Your job will have more effect on your happiness than the social life does.寫好主題句：范文：Do you agree

12、or disagree with the following statement? It is more important for the government to spend money on art museums and concert halls than on recreational facilities such as swimming pools and playgrounds.To begin with, compared with art facilities, recreational facilities such as swimming pools and pla

17、t and music as compulsory subjects to children because parents believe they can help cultivate creativeness. However, I hold a negative attitude toward this opinion due to the fact that art and music cost too much money and are not necessary to help children get to success.Admittedly, learning art a

18、nd music have some minor advantages. They can make students more creative and this will benefit students in the future. For example, a businessman inspired by art and music may create a way of selling his commodities. However, art and music are not the only way of being creative. In fact, some subje

19、cts such as math, chemistry and physics also contribute greatly to our creativeness.First, learning art and music is quite costly. If schools have art and music classes, they need to equip themselves with a great deal of instruments, brushes and pigments, all of which need lots of money and therefor

20、e, schools will ask students to pay more money. Only in that way can a school afford the costs. Take my school for example. Before we were required to study art and music, we only need to pay about 150 yuan a month. However, when we were required to study them, the school fees soar to 400 yuan. This

21、 made parents felt upset and angry because they thought the school had no reason to increase school fees. In the end, it made the school unaffordable and few parents wanted to pay the extra tuitions. As a result, our schools educational quality decreased at an unbelievable rate. Obviously, it is not

22、 advisable to require children to study art and music. In addition, learning art and music does not necessarily lead students to success. A mathematician who has no time to study art can finally obtain great achievement and contribute a lot to science; a business people who only desires money can fi

23、nally become wealthy and famous in his field; an athlete who treat art and music as boring stuffs can finally stand on the top of the podium and be respected by people all over the world. All of the above demonstrate the fact that knowledge from art and music is indeed not so necessary for students

24、future careers.From the foregoing discussion, requiring children to study art and music can help children cultivate creativeness to some extent, but the disadvantages are of more importance. Instead, I suggest the art and music courses can be optional courses for young school children. (418 words)09

25、年11月7日Do you agree or disagree with the following statement?To achieve successful development of a country, a government should focus its budgets more on young childrens education rather than on universities.Whether a government should focus its budgets more on young childrens education than on univ

26、ersities? The answer is yes. I concede that university education now mostly relies on governments budget. However, early education needs more money to guarantee good quality of education and school facilitates.Children aged from 5-18 are at the most crucial stage of intelligence development, so they

27、 deserve better educators. According to a latest research result reported by China Children Health Fund (CCHF), a childs intelligence develops mostly from five to eighteen, so commonly, excellent educators are required in peoples early ages. Besides, the training and educating of a well-qualified te

28、acher in primary school or secondary school are often quite costly, and they need to be paid a relatively high salary, for example, over 1000 dollars per month. As the number of teachers in primary school and secondary school increases, young children education becomes unaffordable for most parents

29、and as a result, government should pay more to subsidize the early education.Young children education also needs good school facilitates, which cost governments a great amount of money. The chief minister in Treasury announced that they spent 3% fiscal income, as much as 500 million dollars, on prim

30、ary education, but that is not enough. It is because children desire a complete set of school facilitates, such as playgrounds, canteens, laboratories, libraries and dormitories which are so expensive. For example, a school library equipped with advanced computers costs at least 100 thousand dollars

31、; a dormitory building serving meals and laundries costs at least 150 thousand dollars. Since early education is compulsory for everyone in my country, the government has to pay much more to set up school facilitates.Admittedly, university education does need money. Usually, salaries of university p

32、rofessors are high and the schooling instruments are costly. However, college education should mainly rely on donations from social organizations, large corporations and accomplished alumni, which relieve much financial pressure of governments. Whats more, considered as the elites education, college

33、 career is optional for people, so it is reasonable for colleges to charge a comparatively high tuition fee to students anticipating universities.To conclude, although universities need budgets to build campuses, remodel laboratories and refill libraries, many social organizations, companies and ind

34、ividuals can raise fund for them. The government, with limited budget splitting to many fields, should put priority to young childrens schooling in terms of education. (426 words)Do you agree or disagree with the following statement:The benefits that students can get from student organization or clu

35、b activities are as many as that they can get from their academic studies. Presently, universities in China often go to extremes by laying too much emphasis on the academic studies while ignoring the importance of extracurricular activities like student organizations and club activities, which is, s

36、o far as I'm concerned, rather ill-considered. As a matter of fact, in my observation, student organizations and club activities benefit students equally as the academic studies, and the reasons are manifold.To begin with, student organizations and club activities provide students with a valuabl

37、e platform to enlarge their social circles. By participating the clubs and organizations, students are more likely to meet people sharing the common interest with them, and establish long-lasting friendship. Take my own experience as an example; my enthusiasm for English brought me to the English co

38、rner in our university weekly, where I met a group of students who were equally passionate for English, even though they were not majoring in this area. The casual chat with them opened a new window for me, and I was greatly enlightened and refreshed by those friends, who have now constituted an ins

39、eparable and valued part of my life.In addition, the experience in the student organizations and club activities will be particularly instrumental for you if you want to acquire leadership and organizational skills. The real participation in the organization of clubs and associations will oftentimes

40、 indicate frequent communication with different people, the coordination of different groups, as well as some minor technical problems like the design of posters and websites. Though seemingly troublesome or even trivial sometimes, all these will benefit you in the long run. I have witnessed many fr

41、iends who have earned desirable positions in the job hunting due to their rich experience in student organizations and club activities.Finally, taking part in the student organizations and club activities will also help students pursue their interests. Oftentimes, the academic studies are just borin

42、g and possibly a far cry from the student's own interest, whereas the participation of club activities can reignite their passion and offer a stage for them to pursue their love. It once happened in my university that a student majoring in Japanese won the top prize for software design, which wa

43、s really very surprising. The reason for his success lies in his participation in the computer club which provides him with the chance to indulge in his interest. Therefore, considering all these factors, it is only fair to conclude that student organizations and club activities are indeed equally b

48、=2009.9.19北美 約等于 2008.5.10Its more important for the government to spend money to build art museums and music performance center than to build recreational facilities (such as swimming pool, playgrounds).An important function of the government is to build public facilities to enrich the material and

49、 spiritual life of its citizens. Whether the government should put priority on art museums and concert halls or spend money on entertaining places like playgrounds is a debate being discussed. In my view, building art museums and concert halls has more value than recreational facilities. Admittedly,

50、 recreational facilities can enrich the way people spend their holidays. For Example, Universal Studio in Los Angles have many fancy cartoon cosplays, thrilling rollercoaster and 3-dimension movies. I can still remember the day when I went there with my best friends, all about laughter and happiness

51、. However, entertainment costs money, and the primary function of the government is not to entertain people and make profits from it. Many corporations and affluent individuals can invest money on those luxury buildings and equipments, so the government should put more budgets on cultural facilities

52、. Moreover, art museums or concert halls can enhance the culture environment of the region or even the whole country. If the government cherishes the cultural heritage and encourage people to go to galleries and concerts by lowering the fees or even making it free, people will be immersed in this ar

53、t atmosphere and try their best to preserve it. For example, in Vienna, where the beauty Sydney Opera House stands, people regard music as an indispensible part of their daily life. It is not exaggerating to say every Viennese is a musician, and we can see people discuss the symphony of Bach in the

54、bar or cafe on the street. In addition, if the government builds elaborate art museums and concert halls, they can become the symbol of a city and boost tourism. By attracting a large population of tourists, the whole economy of a region or a country will boom accordingly. Not only the entrance tick

55、ets but also the other domains, such as the catering and hotel industry, can bring large profits. For example, Paris allures millions of tourists every year, and one key reason is peoples yearning for the grand Louvre Palace to admire the most brilliant artistic works in the world. As an art lover,

56、one important purpose of my New York travel was to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and I bought some souvenirs there. Hence, the money that governments spend on art museums and concert halls will be paid back by the visitors. In conclusion, although entertainment is a crucial aspect of peoples

57、 life and provides them a vehicle to release stress in present society, the cultural investment can pacify humans soul to a more profound extend. Regarding the functions of the government and potential benefits cultural facilities can bring, it is wiser to use the funds in art museums and concert ha
