Can money buy happiness? Various people have various answers. Some people think that money is the source of happiness. With money, one can buy whatever he enjoys. With money, one can do whatever he likes. So, in their minds, money can bring comfort, security, and so on. Money, as they think, is the source of happiness.
But there are still a lot of others who think that money is the root of all evil. Money drives people to steal, to rob, and to break the law. A lot of people became criminals just because they were in search of money. And in the Western countries, there is nothing that can’t be bought by money. Many people lose their own lives when hunting it.
I think that money is essential to life and we cannot do without money. But even though money is necessary to life, it can’t buy happiness. Happiness is not something that can be measured by money. It is a state of mind. One can have plenty of money, with which he can buy whatever he wants, and at the same time he is not happy because he is never satisfied or he is troubled by various kinds of problems. Therefore, although money is necessary for a happy life, it can’t buy happiness.
Charity is of utmost importance to us humans. While following a spate of scandals, some individuals and institutions involved in this field have encountered criticism in recent months.
There are several reasons for this phenomenon. Above all, compared with those of developed countries, the charity awareness in our country is backward. Some people equal charity with donation, and therefore they believe that charity is the rich’s responsibility and has nothing to do with the middle-class and the poor. The second thing that must be taken into consideration is that a number of individuals and charitable organizations lack a sense of social responsibility, which results in the declining social credibility.
For my part, I believe the following steps can address this situation. Firstly, people’s awareness of how profound influence charity can bring to our society should be heightened. Secondly, rigorous supervision must be carried out by the administrations involved, so that the charity activities will become more transparent.
We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job. Here are some suggestions on how to give a good speech.
First of all, it is important to plan. Do your homework. Find out everything you can about your subject. And, at the same time, find out as much as you can about your audience. Who are they? What do they know about your subject? Do they have a common interest? Why are they coming to hear you speak? Put yourself in their shoes as you prepare your speech①. Just remember: be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion.
Let us suppose that you have been asked to introduce the main speaker at a meeting. First, find out the most important and interesting things about the speaker. Then, summarize this information in a few words. Remember, you are not the main speaker; you are introducing the main speaker.
If you are giving a lecture or explaining an idea, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures or charts if they will help you make your points more clearly. Never forget your audience. Don’t talk over their heads, and don’t talk down to them②. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.
If you follow these simple steps, you’ll see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you ask to make more speeches! You’re not convinced yet? Give it a try and see what happens.
My father used to talk to me about his five used to say thatIwas unfortun ate that I had Iused to envy him and wonder how nice it would beto have aho useful of brothers and used to wonder what would happen to me if I were to lose my speaking,I do not have to share anything with own all my parents' can ask for anything I always wear new clothes and eat the best my parents spend all their money on me,I can study at the best university of t he country.
Lucky asI am,I now and then feel very lonely andI have nobody to complain about my Ilong fora quarrel with my brothers and sisters! Of course I have classmat es and friends, but they are I feel so pessimistic that after myparents leave the world,I will have no blood relatives left to share with me the fond memories of my am likely to become selfish while Irealize the world is for shari
So,I am happy but lonely;Iam fortunate but piteous;Iam loved but spoiled;Iam well-bre d but selfish, because I am the only child of the family.
My View on Job-Hopping
Some people tend to stick to their positions all the time, as they think the longer one works in a particular field, the more skillful one will be at it. Some have been teachers all their lives. Some devote their life energy to scientific research. Such people love their work and turn out to be specialists in their own field. They are usually high achievers.
Some are different. They are in the habit of job-hopping, for they always pursue what is new and stimulating. They never seem content with their present situation. Some like to meet more people, make more money and new acquaintances, so they hop from job to job.
As far as I am concerned, I want to be professionally strong. I am not in favor of frequent job hopping, as the saying goes Jack of all trades, master of none. But I want to have opportunities for advancement and as many colleagues as possible to cooperate and communicate with so as to be more creative and less partial.
During my four years in the university, a great many classmates and teachers have exerted a positive influence on me and rendered me instant assistance when I got into trouble. Among those unforgettable people, Yin Fang, one of my roommates, is the most impressive one and leaves me numerous sweet memories.
At the beginning of the new term, the first roommate I met in the university was Yin Fang who seemed to be accustomed to living on campus and encouraged me to adapt to the new environment as soon as possible. From that day on, we have becom#e best friends in spite of occasional quarrels for trifles in life. In terms of character, my friend, optimistic and kind-hearted, always wore a friendly smile on her face, which made her popular among students. Most importantly, as the elder sister in her family, she took several part-time jobs during university in order to relieve burden of her parents and afford her own tuition fees.
The acquaintance with my best friend, Yin Fang, is one of my luckiest things in my life. The first day on campus is the start of an enduring friendship, and I firmly believe that the friendship between us will be everlasting although we will be separated in different corners of the world after graduation.
As a college student, campus is our home,a warm and sunny house,you can find thev igor to live and sustain for do remember there is unusual scenery youshould pay great attention to,that is the love in the it comes to this theme,various wo rds rushed into my mind,sweet, happy,love for ever,everything sounds to be wonderful.
However,our elders always exaggerate about love in believe that it is a waste of time and will make students to forget their studies and eventually may even destroy their lives.
As for me,although Iam looking forward to having an excellent boy study and live wit h me,it isjust a dream actually. We are still children,do not haveenough experience inI ove;we do not take in the spirit of truelove. Forus it isjust a good feeling,a slight feeli ng because of well-dressed or handsome appearance,not by about the perso nality or her habits, we do not know,wejust love because of her depending o n this will certainly go not so further,one day,you find you two are unable to share in the same way,you will quit, leaving tears fallen turns out that love in the campus is c ommonly short and dreamful.
I think after you become matureenough, then you can use your sharp eyes to recogniz e people, find who you really suit to,then, take it seriously.
The use of translation apps is becoming increasingly popular. Why? Admittedly, in the contemporay society, an increasing number of people, with the help of translation apps, find it convenient to read foreign literature or essays.
On the one hand, these apps can bring users greater efficiency and help them save more time or energy, particularly for those who have no knowledge of a foreign language. For instance, a host of people may have a variety of difficulties or troubles in learning English, but with the assistance of these apps, it will not be difficult for them to read and understand English materials. On the other hand, it is these apps that cuase some learners to lose motivation for studying. With Apps in hand, they are not willing to do their utmost to memorize new words, pratice speaking or writing skills every day. Fianlly, they will fail to get a good command of any foreign language.
I, as a college student, deem that it is of great necessity for youngsters to use translations apps in a rational way. We should bear in mind that any translation app is merely a tool. Provided that one intends to master a foreign language, it is advisabel to practice each day instead of relying on translation apps.
At the picture depicts, a father told his son that he should read deeply rather than merely pursue the quantity of reading materials. It reflects that people tend to browse and scan e-books without stopping to ponder even one question. The way we read is so superficial that it arouses great concern in modern life.
To be a better reader, we had better do as follows. For one thing, take notes about crucial details as we used to do. Taking notes can avoid the phenomenon that the more we read online or on smart phones, the less we seemed to memorize. For another, classics deserve to be savored by the contemporary people. For example, some classical novels can be read free on Kindle, which makes them popular among youngsters again. What's more, if we did not make summaries from time to time, nothing that we learnt from e-books would truly be ours.
In conclusion, when we enjoy digital reading, we should consciously conducts deep reading. Try our best to keep those good habits which are acquired in the process of paper reading, such as intensive reading and deep thinking.
With the popularity of the Internet, network columns in which celebrities such as pop stars, atheles show off their wealth become prevalent.
Opinions on this issue differ from person to person. An army of people, especially youngsters today are fond of these activities. Not only can they know about the latest information of these celebrities but also they can get their shopping desires stimulated by copying what the rich do. On the contrary, a number of people hold the negative attitude towards this phenomenon. They maintain that the show-off may mislead the public’s value of consumption that erode people’s outlook on life.
For my part, despite the continuous improvement of people’s living standard, in China where the gap between the rich and the poor is increasingly widening, the rich should play at least a small role in helping those in povertity instead of flaunting their wealth.
Some people imagine to leave this fearful world,only to come down to earth. Scientists tell us that of all the stars known in the vast universe,the earth is the only planet on which human beings can survive. But now we are facing the risky problems concerning our existence on earth.
Worldwide environmental deterioration (恶化) is alarming. The earth is plagued with population explosion,energy crisis,lack of food,housing problem and environmental pollution. During the process of industrialization,human beings are pur crazily the benefits from the economic growth. Now we have suffered from the overuse of natural resources has affected ecosystem(生态系统) on earth.
Environmental deterioration has critically upset the balance of nature. The damage mainly attributes to man's ignorance,greed and wastefulness. For immediate interests human beings have overused earth resources with no thought for the future. Now the terrible damage poses a severe challenge to our existenceg Then what will our future be if we do not act now.
A recent investigation shows that about 80 percent of pupils have private a popular practice indicates that people are attaching greater importance to education. Many parents, for various reasons, missed the chance of obtaining a good education. When their children meet with difficulties in study, they are helpless. Private tutoring is the only solution. As private tutoring is usually one-to-one, the teacher knows the strong points as well as the weak points of the pupil clearly.
However, private tutoring has its own disadvantages. For one thing, it takes up so much of the pupils’ time that they can hardly find enough time for rest and entertainment, which are essential for their physical and mental health. For another, some teachers, busy “shuttling” from one family to another, tend to neglect their regular teaching duties. What’s more, some teachers are eager to help pupils do well in the test, offering the so-called tips for test-taking rather than help them acquire what is more meaningful.
Generally speaking, its disadvantages outweigh its advantages. Greater emphasis should be laid on classroom teaching and practice, on the improvement of teaching quality and on the tapping of pupils’ potentials. Only in this way can a new generation be healthily brought up.
With the development of technology as well as economy, more and more students begin to use their WAP phones to surf the Internet. Admittedly, WAP phones have broughtconvenience to us –surfing the Internetanytime anywhere. Nevertheless, its bad impact can not be ignored. In the first place, apart from those who can control themselves, most of the students are addicted to playing with WAP phones. They set study, their main tasks, aside and spend much time on their WAP phones. In the second place, since students can surf the Internet with WAP phones anytime anywhere, they are likely to do it all the time. As a result, they will spend much money on the Internet. Thus, those who are financially dependent on their parents will greatly increase the financial burden on their parents.
Based on the above, it’s safe to come to the conclusion that it’s advisable for the students to use WAP phones in an appropriate way.
As a primary source of information as well as an efficient means of communication, the Internet offers people a colourful and convenient life. Just by clicking the mouse, we can enjoy a brilliant and easy life that could not be achieved ever before: shopping, making friends, contacting relatives, looking for jobs, downloading music and movies, conducting business deals, and freely airing our opinions. For its convenience, the Internet has attracted people like magnets and some people even claim that it is indispensable. To them, life can’t go on without it. Every day millions of people spend hours on end surfing the Internet. They are obsessed with it so much so that they forget many other important matters. As for me, I don’t approve of unrestrained Internet reliance. Although the Internet is a gift of the technological revolution and a blessing of this information age, we should never let it control our life. The Internet absolutely doesn’t mean the whole world to us. Instead, we should guard against its negative effects. To those Internet addicts, I would add: “Self-control can make or break your life. With proper use, the Internet serves you; otherwise, it kills you.”
Nowadays more and more parents are eager to send their children to study abroad before they finish high school by whatever means and at whatever is quite understandable for parents to send their children to study overseas because they place high expectations on their children. They are encouraged by the success stories of those who have completed their overseas study.
With the development of economy, companies and institutions at home are giving more and more emphasis on overseas experiences, too. Consequently, pursuing overseas study became a kind of short cut in gaining a better future. Moreover, there is still one underlying reason for this rush-economic reason. The rapid economic progress in the past few years in China has enabled more and more parents to afford the huge cost for their children’s overseas for me, overseas study is surely a helpful way to get both advanced knowledge and necessary experiences, but overseas study at an early age is neither necessary nor benef1cial. The students may be too young to either tend for themselves or think for themselves. I do think that overseas study can contribute to one’s self-improvement, but it’s better to be pursued after one has finished his college study at home, when he is more capable of learning and living on his own.
