A Factory near the Neighborhood

Having a factory near where one lives brings with it both advantages and disadvantages. An obvious advantage is an increase in the number of available jobs, and many people in the community might find employment in the new factory. The factory would bring money into the community in other ways as well. It would have to pay some taxes to the local government, and workers might go shopping or eat at a restaurant in the area before or after their shifts.

However, the factory would bring some disadvantages, too. Depending on what kind of factory it is, it might pollute the environment and bring down property values. It would be sure to increase traffic in the area, causing congestion and making it unsafe for children to play outside. Finally, the neighborhood would become a noisy, busy place. For all of these reasons, I would be opposed to the construction of a new factory near my community. While the employment opportunities would help the community, I believe it would be better for residents to commute to work and preserve the peace of our neighborhood.

Different people have different hobbies. Some like singing some like playing and others like collecting.?

I like collecting things too. But I don’t like collecting stamps or coins. And instead I like collecting cartoon books drawn by Japanese. I like them because the pictures in the books are all very beautiful and many stories are exciting and nice.?

Many parents and teachers don’t think that the cartoon books are very good for students but I don’t agree with them. I know some of them are not good but just some. Beauty always needs to be discovered. The books include many kinds of life and spirit and also many things we have never heard about before. Besides that I also like collecting beautiful pictures VCDs photos etc.?

People have different views on what children should do at a very early age. Some think that children should begin their formal education and start to spend most of their time on studies. Others believe that it is still time for young children to play. Both views are based on respective ground.

Those who argue for the playing time for children suggest that children at a very early age are still too young to focus their attention on learning. Their brain may not be ready for serious studies such as comprehension and memorizing learning materials. These people are partially right, for it is true that young children can hardly concentrate. Their attention on one thing lasts for no longer than 15 minutes or so. But we can arrange classes for shorter periods, can’t we? And we can shift teaching subjects. Through putting them tostudy, young children are occupied with learning but not with playing.

Those who argue for children’s early commencement for formal education believe that being put to studies, children can develop good habit of studying, for the process of learning helps develop children’s mental abilities like the ability to memorize, the ability to understand and the ability to do simple calculation. Children’s habit of studying and love for learning are of great importance to youngsters because these two things set up the sound foundation for their future studies.

Having children start formal education at a very early age benefits young children much more than simply letting them play most of their time. A good habit needs a long time to develop to become a second nature. More importantly, it is better to develop a good habit before a bad one may grow. Similarly, the love for learning should take roots before the love for playing is established.

There was once a man that thought he knew everything, and he kept showingoff to the people in his country. As time passed, many people began to feel,that this smart man, could even beat the professor of the king. Now this kingwas very proud, but the professor was not so at all. But the professor said,“Don’t say it too soon;” and from those words, he began to decide which hardquestion to ask the man.

At last he thought of a funny question, “He shall never find the answer!Ha!” it all happened that the clever man whom I have told you; had a big the people that have questions, should stand on this stage, and ask him whatthe problem or question is.

One day the professor piled up in the line, and waited for his turn. Whenit was his turn, he asked the smart man, “I don’t think you could answer thisquestion my lord,” said the professor smiling, “I could answer all of themfoolish professor!” shouted the man with an angry tongue, “Tell me what thequestion is, and I shall prove to you that I can answer every question; if Ican, then I shall ask you a question; if you do not give me the correct answer,then I shall kill you!” shouted the man.

“But what if you don’t?” asked the professor, “Then you shall stand on thisstage and I shall hire servants to serve you;” said the man with a laugh. Theprofessor then began his question, “What is the first tower in 1910, and 1911;and 1912, and 1913…and 20xx? And what is the height of them? If they all stackup, then how tall would it be?” “Ugh, give me a sec would you mind?” and then hebegan to calculate; but he couldn’t find the answer.” “What’s wrong?” asked theprofessor with a smile, “Couldn’t find the answer, perhaps?” “No, I-I-I-I justne-ed… Ugh, fine; you win! Ugh!” and so the professor soon became king and ruledhis country wise and well. People asked him many other questions, and theprofessor answered them all. The clever man that thought he knew everything,however, was locked up in a cage for his cruelty to the king.

The moral of this story is, when you think you know everything; don’t thinkso; for maybe a question will ruin your brain----Lulu read.

Yesterday was the first day of the new semester. Everything here is new to me. Our school is an old school, but it is very beautiful.

There are new students in my class who are excellent. I feel a little sad because I am too ordinary. But now think about it, it is a good thing.

I believe that if I can study with such excellent students, I will also be very good. I don't know why Microsoft chose me as the student committee, but I know it's a good opportunity to improve my ability. All I can do is try my best in the future.

Since ancient times， there have been countless good sentences chanted because of concern. Wang Wei‘s concern for his relatives and friends is that he is alone in a foreign country and thinks twice about his relatives and friends every holiday； Li Bai’s concern for his hometown is that he looks up to the bright moon and bows his head to think about his hometown； Li Shangyin‘s concern for his lover is that he cuts the Western window candles but talks about the rain at night in Bashan. In today’s society， people‘s concern for their relatives and friends is no longer that of the moon， but that of using technology to release themselves The emotion of.

When people are worried about their relatives and friends， they just need to search out their mobile phones from their pockets， input the number of each other， and then press the dial key gently. When the other party is connected， they can hear his voice. Or online and his video， voice chat， very convenient， fast， do not have to suffer from Acacia.

When people miss their hometown， they only need to search the electronic map on the Internet and look at themselves by satellite

My hometown。 In the electronic map， you can see the local customs of your hometown， the great rivers and mountains of your hometown， and even what your relatives are doing in different places. It’s very convenient. You don‘t have to dream about the moon any more.

But now， can people’s concern be regarded as the real concern？ Is that kind of “continuous cutting and disorderly reasoning” sorrow？ Is that kind of “first smell tears full of clothes” concern？ Now the long—time relatives meet， without that sentence contains a strong feeling of “you have changed”. Now wandering around， there will be no more soil with the smell of native grass。 Now that couples have been separated for a long time， they will no longer stare at each other for a long time？ Although high technology is irreplaceable， the so—called concern of the ancients has gradually receded. I wonder if those scientists with advanced minds will invent 3D projection mobile phones in the future to make the image of each other appear in front of you.

High tech is a trend， it is as inevitable as the ebb and flow of the tide. Instead of rejecting high technology， we should accept it and develop with its development. But should we also leave a place for tradition？ Let that traditional， primitive feeling open up a virgin land in the modern society of high—tech flood， not be disturbed by it， and keep it forever.

And care， in this virgin land of the indigenous people， naturally should live in this for a long time. People don‘t use high—tech to release their concerns every day. That kind of concern is not a concern but a habit. I believe that in the long run， people will not have the feeling of “more timid near the countryside， dare not ask people”. How terrible that is！

Smoking should be banned Nowadays, tobacco is more harmful than drug to people's health, therefore many people think that smoking isn't banned that is a direct and primary reason to induce this kind of problem

The main reason is that tobacco is a silent killer to smokers According to a WHO report four million people die yearly from tobacco-related diseases, that is one death every eight seconds

Another reason is that more and more young people are under 18 years old who smoke cigarette have been blinded by the deceit of tobacconists Smoking among adolescents rose in the 1990s in several developed countries， such as China, Vietnam and Thailand Tobacco is a global threat Because of tobacco smuggling, the legal retailing and distribution systems are badly affected, and faced with increased lawlessness and heavy tax losses

In conclusion, smoking should be banned, because of the hazard it poses to people's health.

As economic globalization accelerates, language plays a vital role in cross-boundary communication. An international language like English is inevitably popular among language learners all over the world. And there is a widespread concern whether or not to go abroad for one's English study. To me the answer is undoubtedly a yes, since it provides a chance not only to learn the language, but also to understand the culture.

First of all, going to an English-speaking country is a better way to create an ideal language-learning environment. As it is said, when in Rome, do as Romans do. Thus it can be inferred that a better way to learn how Romans behave is to go to Rome and observe their way of life. It is also true with English study. In an English-speaking country, one is likely to be exposed to more chances to communicate with native speakers rather than being confined to book knowledge only. On his stay in London, a student will have a taste of royal English himself, thus it is easier for him to improve his pronunciation and intonation through imitation. Surrounded by native speakers, a language learner will also find it very helpful in improving other skills like speaking, reading and writing.

Moreover, a student going abroad not only enhances their language proficiency but also comes into direct interplay with a new culture, which is an integral part of language study. Some linguists maintain that one cannot fully grasp a language unless he knows about the culture profoundly, for language is only a medium to conduct communication. Thus living with English-speaking people, one can obtain a vivid first-hand understanding of some idioms, slang and the cultural background And this personal experience will be very difficult to achieve-whatever abundant study resources can be accessed to domestically. By chatting with native speakers in daily life, students can gain an insight in the culture.

Judging from all the analysis above, we may safely come to such a conclusion that going to an English-speaking country is advantageous for English learners. A study experience abroad is such a practice to double the achievements with half the efforts. Fully utilizing the chance to get a deeper involvement in the exotic culture, students may become real masters of English.

How to improve public morals

Nowadays there are still many behaviors against public morality, such as spitting or littering in public places, cutting in line, wasting water or electricity, and so on. One of the main reasons for these immoral behaviors is that some people have poor personal manners and lack public consciousness.

Actually, the little things in many people’s eyes have brought harmful effects on our community. Above all, these immoral behaviors disturb social orders and weaken social stability. Moreover, when one violates public morality he not only impairs other’s interests but also dose harm to himself. For example, if most people buy pirated products, the original producers will suffer great loss and might lose the enthusiasm to continue their production, which in turn affects consumers.

Taking the above effects into consideration, I think, it is high time that we took more effective measures to improve public morals. First of all, education plays a vital role. We must make them realize how their behaviors influence the society so they may follow public morals consciously. Besides, the government should improve the administration system and ensure the efficient implementation of the administration measures.

Most of us can learn how to do something simple on our own with just a set of instructions. However, to learn about something more complex, it’s always best to have a teacher.

Teachers bring with them varied and useful backgrounds. They’ve been trained to teach individuals in different ways depending on their style. For instance, omen students learn better by discussing a topic. Others learn more by writing about it. Teachers can help students learn in the way that’s best of each student. A textbook or a manual can only give you one way of learning something. Plus they’re only as helpful as your ability to understand them. A good teacher can adapt her teaching to your needs.

Teachers help you focus on what you’re learning. If you’re learning something by yourself, it’s easy to become distracted, and go on to other activities. Teachers keep your attention on the subject. They also approach a subject logically, taking it one step at a time. On your own, it’s tempting to skip parts of the learning process you think you don’t need. That can binder your ability to really understand the subject.

Learning a subject on your own is a very narrow way of learning. You can only use the information you get from the textbook. With a teacher, you get the information in the written materials as well as the teacher’s own knowledge of the topic. Teachers can also provide extra materials to broaden the scope of what you’re learning.

There’s nothing wrong with studying on your own, and a learner can always benefit from some quiet study. For the best possible learning, though, a good teacher is the biggest help you can have.

Although the grand ceremony of Oscar was over this year, the attention and discussion linger in the Chinese movie munity and out. Some insiders hold that following global trends is the only way to develop China’s film industry. Others insist, however, that the Oscars are simply one the many awards that Americans like to crown themselves. Domestic films should maintain their distinct flavors. As a movie fan myself, I think we should strive for it to gain international recognition.

Firstly, the Oscars Award is an international recognition in terms of both artistic performance and box office revenue. With live broadcast in 50 languages, it plays a huge role in shaping the global film industry. It is no wonder that so many people around the world pay much attention to it. The reality is that Hollywood movies account for more than 90 percent of global market shares-this has inevitable worldwide impact. Obviously, the Oscars Award has bee something that we can not afford to ignore it.

Moreover, we live in a global, multicultural world where different cultures interact. China’s movie industry needs to realize it and sharpen its petitive edge. If Chinese films are to make a global impact, then movie production, distribution and marketing organization need improving. Chinese films should adjust to satisfy the variety of social demands. The introduction of foreign successful formulas and technology is a must for Chinese film industry. It is parochial to think that China can only use its national characteristics to define domestic movies. Conservatism will hinder the progress of film industry. If China does not develop its film industry through embracing innovative multiculturalism, Chinese movies will have little opportunity to gain a share in the international market.

Last but not least, the Hollywood films also conform to specific cultural demands. Take this year’s Academy Awards as an example, nominated movies include both high-cost productions like The Lord of the Rings and subtle, more moderate budgeted projects like Lost in Translation, these films suggest that Hollywood movies maintain a basic balance in keeping the style of its own and absorbing diverse cultures. Hence, the Chinese filmmakers should spare no efforts to present original domestic films to foreign viewers. We will be left behind if we stick to the so-called orthodox. For instance, Couching Tiger Hidden Dragon was acted by Chinese actors and through cultural icons, but actually its style and structure of the movie all conform to a Hollywood formula. This partly explains why it appeals to a wider range of audiences from different cultural background.

In a word, the Oscars are very important to Chinese filmmakers. Nominations are a kind of approval by international peers of their achievements. As China’s market improves, its movie industry will get stronger and will eventually cash in on the Oscars.

Nowadays, food has become easier to prepare. Has this change improved the way people live? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

The twentieth century has brought with it many advances. With those advances, human lives have changed dramatically. In some ways life is worse, but mostly it is better. Changes in food preparation methods, for example, have improved our lives greatly.

The convenience of preparing food today is amazing. Even stoves have gotten too slow for us. Microwave cooking is much easier. We can press a few buttons and a meal is completely cooked in just a short time. People used to spend hours preparing an oven-cooked meal, and now they can use that time for other, better things. Plus, there are all kinds of portable, prepackaged foods we can buy. Heat them in the office microwave, and lunch at work is quick and easy.

Food preparation today allows for more variety. With refrigerators and freezers, we can preserve a lot of different foods in our homes. Since technology makes cooking so much faster, people are willing to make several dishes for even a small meal. Parents are more likely to let children be picky, now that they can easily heat them up some prepackaged macaroni and cheese on the side. Needless to say, adults living in the same house may have very different eating habits as well. If they don’t want to cook a lot of different dishes, it’s common now to eat out at restaurants several times a week.

Healthful eating is also easier than ever now. When people cook, they use new fat substitutes and cooking sprays to cut fat and calories. This reduces the risk of heart disease and high cholesterol. Additionally, we can buy fruits and vegetable fresh, frozen or canned. They are easy to prepare, so many of us eat more of those nutritious items daily. A hundred years ago, you couldn’t imagine the process of taking some frozen fruit and ice from the freezer, adding some low-fat yogurt from a plastic cup and some juice from a can in the refrigerator, and whipping up a low-fat smoothie in the blender!

Our lifestyle is fast, but people still like good food. What new food preparation technology has given us is more choices. Today, we can prepare food that is more convenient, healthier, and of greater variety than ever before in history.

With the development of globalization, there are an increasing number of scholars these days who hold the opinion that we need a common language to be spoken by all the people in the world. However, other scholars are afraid that this will weaken other languages and cultures at the same time. As for me, I am not in favor of the viewpoint that one language should replace others as the universal one.

Nowadays it is universally acknowledged that language is not only a tool of communication but also a kind of art. Each language, no matter what kind of language it is, has its unique pronunciation, grammar and expressions, which contribute to the diversity of the world. Therefore, if the diverse languages are diminished, our world will become less colorful.

We can say that language is part of culture, and plays a considerably important role in culture. Indeed, some social scientists consider it the keystone of culture. Without language, so the argument goes, culture would not be possible. On the other hand, language is influenced and shaped by culture; it reflects culture. In the broadest sense, language is the symbolic representation of a people, and it comprises their historical and cultural backgrounds as well as their approach to life and their ways of living and thinking. Cultures differ from one another, and each culture is unique. There is no denying that it will be a disaster for us to see the world's diverse cultures disappear one by one.

When all the factors are examined, we may safely come to the conclusion that although we are convinced that, no matter what our career choice is, a command of foreign languages is an important skill to acquire, yet we should protect our own language, the carrier of our culture.

Happiness is important in our life. In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it.

I will never forget one thing. Once, I had a bad mark at a math test. I was shy and afraid to meet my parents. But when I got back home late, my parents knew what happened, they said to me: “It doesn’t matter, my child. Remember we’ll be always beside you when you need help. We believe you can be better next time. Never give up!” I was moved and made up my mind to work harder and harder.

I feel happy. Whenever I am in trouble, I can feel my parents’ love. I want to be a good child for my parents.

【参考译文】

幸福在我们的生命中很重要。事实上，幸福总是围绕着你，如果你把你的心。

我永远不会忘记一件事。有一次，我在数学考试中得了个不好的分数。我害羞和害怕见到我的父母。但是当我回家晚了，我的'父母知道发生了什么事，他们对我说：“没关系，我的孩子。记住，当你需要帮助的时候，我们会一直在你身边。我们相信你下次会更好。永不放弃!“我很感动，下定决心要更加努力地工作。

我感到快乐。每当我遇到困难，我都能感受到父母的爱。我想成为我父母的好孩子。

Is a sound social environment necessary for people to be good to others

Helping others has always been a virtue in traditional Chinese culture, but nowadays many people dare not offer help to those in need, for fear of getting into trouble. The issue has aroused public debate over the climate of morality and credibility, and many people sigh over the moral degeneration. In my opinion, while social environment is necessary for people to be good to others, each individual should try his or her best to do good deeds and be sympathetic with others, instead of waiting for the environment to improve.

There is no denying that some tragic events turn out to be traps by people with evil intentions, so people are becoming more risk-conscious and are more wary of traps and deceits. some people even wonder, ‘Is our society hostile to good people?’ The question may sound ridiculous but many people apparently think so. They believe that our current society provides a bad environment for good people doing good things, and good people pay a high price for being compassionate.

In fact, such kind of things only accounts for a pretty small percentage, but massive media coverage makes the situation seem serious. Actually, most people around me are kind, warm-hearted and helpful, and I am quite delighted in their company. So I believe media should pay more attention to publicizing good people and exemplary deeds to enhance our confidence, rather than exposing disgusting behaviors.

At the same time, as John Donne puts it, “No man is an island, entire of itself. Every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.” Since everyone of us is a component of the society, it is each individual’s conducts that form social morality. Just imagine it is you who need help, what would you feel if everyone watches indifferently or suspiciously? So, put yourself in other’s position and be sympathetic. If we do nothing but wait for the environment to improve, nothing will happen. Only by removing the fence around our kind consciousness can we reverse the regress of social ethics, and make our world full of warmth and happiness. Therefore, if help is needed, never hesitate to lend a helping hand. It will make you happy and feel better about life.

In sum, I contend the idea that while social environment is necessary for people to be good to others, it is each individual’s responsibility to offer help to those in need, and together we build up a more harmonious society.

专八英语作文范文 第20篇

Some people are committed to their dreams and work hard to achieve their goals． What is guiding them is a kind of illusion．Some people think that illusion is good for success while others argue that it is not so good because it may get people unrealistic． As far as I am concerned， illusion is necessary in our life only if it is encouraging and realistic．

There are several reasons．First of all， there is power in illusion． The illusion can lead people to the path they want to go on and it gives us passion． We need to live each moment wholeheartedly， with all our senses so that we can find pleasure in the fragrance of backyard garden， the crayoned picture of a six－year－old， and the enchanting beauty of a rainbow． The illusion can be enthusiastic love of life that puts sparkle in our eyes， a lilt in our steps and smoothes the wrinkles from our souls．

Secondly， we are born with wide－eyed， enthusiastic wonder as anyone knows who has ever seen an infant’s delight at the jingle of keys or the scurrying of a beetle． It is this childlike wonder and illusion that gives enthusiastic people such a youthful air， no matter how old they are． For example， the famous cellist Pablo Casals would start his day by playing Bach. Music， for him， was an elixir that made life a never－ending adventure． As author and poet Samuel once wrote， “Years wrinkle the skin， but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.”

Lastly， people with illusions also love what they do， regardless of money or power or title． If we cannot do what we love as a full－time career， we can as do a part－time vocation， like the head of state who paints， the nun who runs marathons and the executive who handcrafts furniture． We cannot afford to waste tears and energy and time on “might－have－beens”． We need to turn the tears into sweat as we go after “what－can－be”．

To sum up， God gives each bird its food， but he does not throw it into its nest． Wherever you want to go， just cherish your precious illusion and let your dream be realized．
