如何利用参考书籍?How to Make Full Use of Reference Books? Nowadays, a flood of reference books has become a great concern among students and teachers.There are all kinds of reference books in market, making students and teachers difficult to choose.Besides, reference books also bring bad influence to students and teachers.目前,大量的参考书在教师和学生中对已经形成了担忧。市场上有各种各样的参考书,让学生和教师都很难选择。除此之外,参考书也给教师和学生带来不良的影响。
For one thing, with the help of reference books, students are inclined to think about the questions less.Owing to the elaborate explanations given by reference books, many students will adopt the answers in reference books directly without thinking independently.And in a long term, students will rely on the reference books too much and lower their thinking ability.For another, reference books limit teachers’ thinking model to some extent because some teachers rely on reference books too much.Depending on reference books is not good for teachers’ breaking through the traditional teaching model and thinking model.首先,在参考书的帮助下,学生倾向于不怎么思考问题。由于参考书给出了详尽的解释,许多学生都会直接采用参考书中的答案而没有独立思考。长期下去,学生会过于依赖参考书,降低他们的思维能力。另一方面,由于一些教师过于依靠参考书,在某种程度上参考书也限制了他们的思维模式。依靠参考书并不利于教师突破传统的教学模式和思维模式。
Therefore, we should make use of reference books properly.First, think about the question before you use reference books.Then find out the difference between your answer and the answer given by reference books.Third, learn something new from reference books and mend your way of thinking.In addition, do not rely on reference books too much so that you can think freely.因此,我们应该正确使用参考书。首先,在使用参考书之前先思考问题。然后找出你的答案和参考书中给出的答案之间的差异。第三,从参考书中学习新的知识,改进思维方式。此外,不要过多地依赖参考书,这样你才可以自由思考。
提高大学生出勤率 Increase Attendence Rate in College Low attendance rate has been a big problem among colleges and universities.To avoid this problem and finish their teaching tasks, different teachers come up with various methods.There are two common methods as following.在高校中低出勤率一直是一个大问题。为了避免这个问题,完成教学任务,不同的教师想出了不同的方法。以下是两种常见的方法。
The most common-used method is to call over.Teachers call over each class or after an interval of one or two classes and write down the names of the absent students.And usually, if someone’s name is written down more than three times, they will lose their qualification in taking part in the final exam of this class, which means they need to repeat the class next time.Another method usually used in smaller classes is to ask questions at random.Teachers will ask some students to answer the questions to check if they attend the class.最常用的方法是点名。每节课老师都点名或者在一节课和两节课之间的间隔中点名,然后写下缺席的学生的名字。通常,如果有人的名字被登记超过三次,他们就不能参加这门课程的期末考试,这就意味着他们需要重修这门课。另一个在小班中常用的方法是随机提问问题。老师会叫一些学生来回答问题来检查他们是否有来上课。
However, even though these methods force students to attend the classes and increase the attendance rate to some extent, it doesn't solve the problem throughout.In my opinion, the most important point is that teacher should improve their teaching skills, break through traditional teaching model and try to make their classes more active and interesting so that students will attend the classes of their own accord.Meantime, students should try to improve their self-discipline ability and learn to appreciate the advantages of their teachers.然而,尽管这些方法可以强迫学生去上课而且出勤率在某种程度上也有所增长,但这并不能彻底地解决问题。我觉得最重要的一点是教师要提高他们的教学技能,突破传统的教学模式,来使他们的课变得更生动有趣,这样学生们才会主动去上课。同时,学生应该努力提高自己的自律能力并学会欣赏他们老师的优点。
大学生逃课现象 Skipping Classes in College Campus Skipping classes is quite common in college campus in that students have more freedom on college than ever before.But why do they want to skip classes? Different students have different reasons concerning it.在大学中逃课是很常见的,因为学生们在大学中得到的自由比以往都要多。但是为什么他们要逃课?对于这一问题不同的学生有不同的原因。
There are some reasons given by some students.First, some students skip their classes just because they don’t like the classes.They think that some classes are quite boring and time-wasting, as well as they can’t learn a lot from the classes.Therefore, they skip this kind of classes to study individually.This is one of the reasons for high absence rate in some public courses.Second, many students skip their classes because they lack of self-discipline and are indulged in other things, such as playing online games.They cannot control themselves well and finally lost their aim and motivation to learn.In addition, oversleeping and being ill are also the reasons for class absence.They consider that their absence will not be noticed if they teachers don’t call over.一些学生说了很多理由。首先,一些学生逃课仅仅只是因为他们不喜欢那门课。他们觉得一些课程是非常乏味、浪费时间的,而且从课堂上他们也学不到什么东西。因此,他们就逃了那一类课,然后去自习。这是一些公共课程中高缺勤率的原因之一。第二,很多学生逃课是因为他们缺乏自律并沉迷于其他事情,如,玩在线游戏。他们自控能力不是很好,终于会丢失学习目标和学习动机。另外,睡过头,生病也是上课缺席的原因。他们觉得如果老师不点名的话他们不去上课也不会被发现。
There are various reasons for skipping classes, but as far as I am concerned, skipping classes should not be advocated because students always can learn something from each class, no matter how boring the class is.In addition, skipping classes is a kind of waste of money.What’s more, attending classes is also a kind of respect for our teachers.Therefore, please attend each class as much as possible.有各种各样的逃课理由,但我觉得不应该提倡不上课,因为每一门课学生都可以从中学到一些东西,不管那门课是有多么的无聊课。而且,逃课也是浪费钱的一种方式。更重要的是,去上课也是对老师的尊重。因此,请尽量地去上课吧。
回顾2008 Back in 2008 2008: It is the most unforgettable year for our Chinese, since we underwent so many things.Looking back on that year, I found it eventful.2008是我们中国最令人难忘的一年,我们经历了这么多的事情。回首这一年,我发现那是一个多事之秋。
At the beginning of that year, we suffered a lot from the ice and snow disaster.Everything was so expensive at that time.To make things worse, all the traffic lines were frozen;so many workers and students were detained at the railway station.They had a terrible job to go home.那一年年初,我们遭受了严重的冰雪灾害。那时候所有东西都很贵。更糟的是,所有的交通路线都被冻结了;很多工人和学生都被逼留在火车站内。他们回不了家。
In March, a horrible violence happened in Tibet, which caused so many deaths and injuries, and caused bad social influence.It seemed that our world was no longer a safe place to live in.三月,西藏发生了可怕的暴力事件,导致许多人死亡和受伤,并造成了不良的社会影响。看来我们的世界不再是一个安全的地方。
On May 12th, the most terrible earthquake which happened in Wenchuan deprived of tens of thousands of lives.We were dreadful at that time.Some of my schoolmates collected money for disaster area.Some of my schoolmates prayed good luck for them with candles.I also joined in them.We eagerly wished that the dead people would go well on their way to haven and people alive could be strong.五月十二日,最可怕的汶川地震剥夺了成千上万人的生命。我们当时都吓坏了。我的一些同学给灾区集资。一些同学用蜡烛为他们祈祷。我也参与进去了。我们热切地希望死去的人在去天堂的路上能够一路走好,而活着的人也能变坚强。
In August, the Olympic Games were hold in our country that was a totally success, bring great reputation to our nation.We were so excited to welcome athletes all over the world.It was a great chance for the world to know us better.八月,我们国家成功地举行了奥运会,为我们的国家带来了很好的声誉。我们很兴奋地欢迎来自世界各地的运动员。那是让世界更好地了解我们的一个很好的机会。
At the end of the year, there came a financial crisis.Many companies went bankrupt.Therefore, so many workers lost their jobs.在今年年底出现了金融危机。许多公司都破产了。因此,很多工人都失去了工作。What a poignant year we had spent in 2008, but we were not defeated, because China was getting more and more flourishing.We have the confidence and ability to overcome all difficulties.2008是多么痛苦的一年,但是我们没有被打败,因为中国越来越繁荣了。我们有信心也有能力克服所有的困难。
我与英语 Me and English My name is Jason.I have graduated from Hunan First Normal College.My major is English that I really fond of.English is an international language.If we can speak English very well, we will be able to communicate with the people all over the world.As a young boy, I had a strong desire to study English.I began to learn English in primary school.During the three years in middle school, I developed my interest in English;during the three years in high school, I laid a firm foundation in English;during the three years in college, I make a lot of progress in my oral English.Nowadays, I can speak in English freely and fluently.I can not only communicate with others in English, but also express my great feelings and introduce something in English.I can also talk with foreigners.Most foreigners speak highly of my oral English.我叫杰森。我毕业于湖南第一师范学校。我的专业是英语,我真的很喜欢英语。英语是一门国际语言。如果我们能说好英语,我们就能够与来自世界各地的人交流了。作为一个年轻的男孩,我学习英语的欲望很强烈。我从小学的时候就开始学习英语。在初中的三年里,我培养了我对英语的兴趣;在高中的三年里,我在英语上打下了坚实的基础;在大学的三年里,我在英语口语上有了很大的进步。现在,我能够随时说流利的英语了。我不仅仅只用英语与他人交流,也要用英语表达我的感受,用英语给别人介绍东西。我可以与外国人交流。大多数外国人都称赞我的英语口语。
Although I'm lack of so many things, I still trust in myself, because English is always together with me.English gives me confidence.While speaking English, I'm very strong and powerful.As a major of English, speaking English is not only my great honor, but also a fashion to me.虽然我还有很多的不足,我仍然相信自己,因为英语永远和我在一起。英语给了我信心。说英语的时候,我感到很强大。作为英语专业的一名学生,说英语不仅是我莫大的荣幸,也是一种时尚。
大学生考证热 Certificate Craze on Campus It is quite a common phenomenon that college students are enthusiastic over getting all kinds of certificates, such as accountant certificate, teacher certificate and so on.What is the reason for that? And it should be advocated or not?
这是一个相当普遍的现象,大学生都热衷于获得各种证书,如会计证书,教师资格证书等。这是为什么呢?应不应该提倡呢?
In my opinion, there are two reasons accounting for the phenomenon.For one thing, many students think that the more certificates they get now, the more chances they can get a good job in the future.They are told that the companies or institutions think highly of the certificate when interviewing.Therefore, they try their best to get all kinds of certificates, even though some have no any relationship with their majors or interests.For another, following others’ choices is another reason.A number of students go to purse the certificates because they find that many classmates around them are doing that so they think it would be safe to follow others.在我看来,有两个原因。一方面,许多学生认为他们得到了越多的证书,将来他们能够得到一份好工作的机会就越大。他们被告知说,公司或一些机构在采访的时候都认为证书很重要。因此,他们努力获得各种证书,即使是一些和他们专业和兴趣没有任何关系的证书。另一方面,随波逐流也是一个原因。许多学生用钱去买证书,因为他们发现他们周围的很多同学都是这样做的,所以他们觉得跟着别人会比较安全些。
From my point of view, it is not wise for everyone to follow others’ steps to get all kinds of certificates.I consider that we should make our choices combining with our own concrete conditions.Besides, certificate is not the only one criterion to measure our ability and we should not be too enthusiastic over it.在我看来,每个人都跟随别人的脚步去获得各种证书是不明智的。我认为我们应该结合自己的具体情况而做出选择。此外,证书并不是衡量自己能力的唯一标准,我们不应该对它过于热衷。
机器翻译与人脑翻译 Machine Translation and Human Translation Nowadays, all sorts of translation software or electronic dictionaries are emerging in an endless stream and people can get a lot of help from using of them when studying and working.Therefore, some people say that new translation tools will inevitably replace the human translation one day in that translation software or machines are becoming increasing exact and accurate in dealing with the words or phrases, even the sentences.In addition, compared with human translation, new translation tools are more convenient and less time-consuming.如今,各种翻译软件或电子词典层出不穷,在学习或者工作中人们可以从中得到很多帮助。因此,有人说新的翻译工具将会替代人工翻译因为软件或机器翻译在处理单词或短语甚至是句子的时候越来越精确。此外,与人工翻译相比,新的翻译工具更方便、更省时。
However, on the other hand, some people hold that translation machine will never replace human translation, as computer will never replace human brain.The sentences or the passages translated by translation machines are rigid and inflexible because translation machines cannot change or convert the meaning of the words or phrases according to different occasions.And what’s worse, if we depend on translation machines too much, we will be lazy in thinking independently and likely to lose our ability of thinking.然而,另一方面,有些人认为翻译机器永远都不会取代人工翻译就像电脑永远不会取代人脑一样。由翻译工具翻出来的句子或者段落会比较僵化死板因为翻译机器不能根据不同场合改变单词或短语的意思。更糟糕的是,如果我们过于依赖翻译机器,我们会懒于进行独立思考,可能会失去思考的能力。
Taking above into consideration, I support the latter.As far as I am concerned, we should never let ourselves controlled by digital products or other things.As for translation, I think that we should try our best to do it by ourselves at first before using the tools, especially the students.综上所述,我支持后者。在我看来,我们不应该让自己受数码产品或其他东西控制。至于翻译,我认为我们应该在使用翻译工具之前尽我们最大的努力去想,尤其是学生。
高中生活 High School Life According to my memory, my high school life was full of happiness and fortune because of my lovely friend and teacher.They are sunshine in my high school life.根据记忆,我的高中生活充满了幸福和运气,因为有可爱的朋友和老师。他们是我高中生活的阳光。
I met my best friend in senior one.She is a girl with long legs, white skin, and small face.What makes me a deep impression is her wide shoulder, wider than other girls who have the same height as her.She was kind, treating me just like I was her sister.I didn’t live in school dormitory, but she did.So, I slept with her at noon.Sometimes we argued, but we both checked our mistakes and recovered our relationship soon.When we were senior two, I moved in school dormitory, I didn’t feel comfortable in there very fast.She took care of me and made me feel warm.In my opinion, she is more than a friend, like a family.在高一的时候我遇到了我最好的朋友。她是一个女孩,有着一条长长的腿,白皙的皮肤和小小的脸蛋。她比同身高的女生都要宽的宽宽的肩膀让我印象深刻。她很善良,对我就像是她妹妹一样。我不在学校宿舍住,但是她在。所以,中午我和她一起睡。有时候我们会争吵,但我们都自我反省,之后我们的关系很快就会恢复了。当我们高二的时候,我搬到学校宿舍住,很快我就觉得不舒服。她照顾我,让我感到很温暖。在我看来,她不止是朋友,也是家人。
As for my teachers, my chemistry teacher is my favorite teacher.She is a woman with sweet smile, not so tall, but she built a tall imagination in my heart.I used to chat with her result from my failure in the exam.She is a divorced woman;however, she was steel, living a happy life with her daughter.I appreciate people with a strong heart, maybe the reason is that I want to be the kind of person who is always optimistic and can’t be defeated easily.She expresses that.至于我的老师,我最喜欢的老师是我的化学老师。她是一个女老师,总是挂着甜美的微笑,她不是很高,但她在我的心里却是伟大的形象。我曾经因为考试不及格而和她聊天。她是一个离了婚的女人;然而,她却像钢铁一样坚强,和她的女儿过着幸福的生活。我很欣赏拥有一颗坚强的心的人,也许是因为我想成为一个永远乐观,不轻易被打败的人。她说道。
The high school memory is a valuable memory in my life.It’s my fortune to meet them, my sunshine.在我的人生中高中记忆是我一段宝贵的记忆。遇见他们,我的阳光是我的运气。
大学生意志力的缺失The Lack of Willpower for College Students As we all know, college is a place where students can cultivate their professional skills, but more and more students now lose their heart in study.They are addicted to playing computer games or other activities.If the Internet is not turned off, they would rather stay up to play than go to bed.Why this phenomenon gest so common? How really should do to college students?
我们都知道大学是一个可以培养学生的专业技能的地方,但现在越来越多的学生无心学习。他们沉迷于玩电脑游戏或其他活动。如果没有断网,他们宁愿熬夜玩电脑而不是去睡觉。这种现象为什么如此的普遍?大学生真正应该怎么做?
Maybe I can explain the first question with some reasons.Nowadays, college students are under more pressure from school work and coming employment.On one hand, they should try to pass the tests to get credit;otherwise they can’t get the academic degree.They may be defeated by the challenges or difficulties.They just want to do something exciting to escape the problem what they faced.On the other hand, college life is more flexible.Students could choose various ways to study.If they can’t make good use of time wisely, the result is that they will get lost.Students give up easily and can’t behold on consistently and persistently.也许我可以解释第一个问题。如今,大学生学业、就业的压力越来越大。一方面,他们应该通过考试来获得学分;否则他们不能获得学位证书。他们可能会被挑战或困难打败。他们只想做一些令人兴奋的事来逃离他们所面临的问题。另一方面,大学生活更灵加的活。学生可以选择各种方法来学习。如果他们不能充分理智地利用时间,他们就会迷失。学生轻易放弃,而且不能有始有终、坚持不懈。
So the most lack to college students is willpower.Just as the old saying goes, “where is a will, where is way.” If college students want to do something perfectly, they should stick to it every day and do not let other things distract their aims.Then they will be a great winner in college and life.所以大学生最缺乏的是意志力。正如俗话所说,“有志者事竟成。”如果学生想要做好某件事,他们就要每天坚持做,不要让其他的事情分散他们的目标。这样他们在大学生活中将是一大赢家。
网络游戏 Online Games As computer and Internet are increasing entering ordinary people, in addition to the development of scientific technology, more and more online games are available and popular among people, especially the youngsters.However, this phenomenon brings a lot of worries to many parents and teachers in that many students who have lower self-discipline are addicted to the games and indulge into these games too much, which affects their health and academic performance.随着计算机和互联网不断地进入普通人家庭,除了科学技术的发展,越来越多的网络游戏可供人们来玩,它们也很受欢迎,尤其是年轻人。然而,这一现象给许多家长和教师带来了很多困扰,很多学生自律能力比较低,他们沉迷于游戏,影响他们的健康和学业成绩。
But on the other hand, some people point out that online games are not good for nothing.They argue that playing online games can help the player practice their reaction capacity, which is good for forming prompt and responsive thinking.In addition, the players can temporarily release from the great pressure in work and study and enjoy themselves when playing online games.但另一方面,有人指出,网络游戏并不是没有好处的。他们认为,玩网络游戏可以帮助玩家练习他们的反应能力,这对形成敏捷的反应和思维很有帮助。而且,在玩电脑游戏的时候玩家可以暂时释放在工作和学习上的巨大压力并感到愉悦。
From my point of view, I think playing games is not a bad choice of indoor relaxation for those who have high self-discipline.But for those who have no enough self-controlled ability, it is not wise to try to play these games.从我的角度来看,我认为游戏对于那些自律能力强的人来说是放松的一个不错的选择。但对于那些没有足够的自我控制能力的人,玩游戏则是不明智的。
探险活动 On Adventure Activities Depending on personal experience, preference and emotion, different people have different views towards adventure activities like rock climbing and bungee jumping.As far as I am concerned, these adventure activities have a great positive effect on our physical and mental health.由于个人经历,爱好和情感不同,对于冒险活动不同的人有不同的看法,像攀岩、蹦极。我觉得这些冒险活动对我们的身心健康有积极的影响。
There are reasons accounting for my view.For one thing, it is a good way to keep our body health.In modern society, most people are busier than ever before and have less time to take exercise, so the positive effects that doing exercises bring to us is unprecedented needed.Attending adventure activities now and then can help us keep fit and keep labor and relax in balance.For another, attending adventure activities also has a great impact on keeping our mental health.Most people in modern society suffer greater pressure than ever before and need to release it effectively and promptly.Attending adventure activates needs more concentration and attention and that can help us release our pressure by distracting our attention from work and study.There is no denying that releasing pressure in time is good for our mental health.以下的理由可以支持我的观点。一方面,它是保持身体健康的一个好方法。在现代又可以帮助我们保持健康,可以保持劳逸平衡。另一方面,参加冒险活动对我们的心理健康也有很大的影响。现代社会大多数人都忍受着前所未有的压力,需要及时有效地释放。参加冒险激活动需要更加的集中注意力这样可以通过分散我们的注意力帮助我们释放工作和学习上的压力。不可否认的是,及时释放压力对我们的精神健康有好处。
To put it in a nutshell, attending adventure activities has a great positive effect on our health.However, one thing should be reminded of that, adventure activities are not appropriated for everyone and great attention should be given while attending.简而言之,参加冒险活动对我们的健康有很大的积极作用。然而,有一点需要提醒的是,冒险活动并不适合每一个人,在参加的时候应该要重视。
我的职业选择 My Choice for Job A recent survey shows that some people prefer the higher-paying job even though it requests a longer hours than those low-paying job, especially among the young.They consider that they should spare no effort to earn money and improve their life standard when they are still young.最近一项调查显示,有人喜欢高薪水的工作,即使它工作的时间比那些低收入的工作时间更长,特别是在年轻人之间。他们认为在他们都还年轻的时候应该尽力去赚钱来提高他们的生活水平。
However, others hold diverse view that they would rather choose lower-paying jobs and earn less money than do longer hours jobs.What they consider is that they should accompany their family and friends as much as possible even though they are busy.Moreover, they think they need to enjoy their lives while they are making their living, in that life is limited and money is not everything.然而,其他人则持不同观点,他们宁愿选择低报酬,挣的钱也比长时间工作少的工作。他们认为,即使他们很忙他们应该尽可能的陪自己的家人和朋友。此外,他们认为在他们谋生的同时也应该享受生活,因为生命是有限的,而钱不是万能的。
If I had a chance to choose my job, I would be inclined to choose the latter one.In my opinion, many things are more important than money even though money can solve many problems, such as our family, affection and friendship.In addition, we also need to take our personal preference and conditions into consideration when choosing jobs.Only in this way can we real enjoy our jobs.如果我有机会选择我的工作,我会倾向于选择后者。在我看来,尽管钱可以解决很多问题,但是很多东西都比金钱更重要,如我们的家人,感情和友谊。而且,在选择工作的时候我们还需要把我们的个人爱好和情况考虑进去。只有这样我们才能真正享受我们的工作。
低碳生活 Low-carbon Lifestyle With the spread of the consciousness of environmental protection, the word “low-carbon” has been very popular in life.We can find it in many aspects, such as low-carbon products, low-carbon consumption, and low-carbon travel and so on.Generally speaking, more and more people are advocating “low-carbon” lifestyle.随着环境保护意识的传播,“低碳这个词在生活中变得很受欢迎。在许多方面都可以找到它,如低碳产品,低碳消费,低碳旅游等。总之,越来越多人提倡“低碳”生活方式。
As implied in the name, “low-carbon” lifestyle is a kind of new pattern of lifestyle which aims to lowering the carbon dioxide emission in living as much as possible.For example, some office workers are not proud of driving private cars from work to home any more but pride themselves on riding or taking public transportation.In addition, they advocate recycling water and saving energy as much as they can.就像名字暗示的那样,“低碳”的生活方式,是一种旨在尽量降低生活中二氧化碳排放量的新型生活方式。例如,一些上班族不再以开私家车上班回家自豪,而是骑车或乘坐公共交通工具而感到骄傲。此外,他们提倡循环用水,尽可能多的节约能源。As college students, we also make some contribution in our daily life to reduce the emission of the carbon dioxide.For example, switch off the light when leaving and save water.In addition, we should use our knowledge and action to arouse others’ concern about the importance of lowering emission of carbon dioxide and lead them to lead a “low-carbon” life.作为大学生,在日常生活中我们也做了一些贡献来减少二氧化碳的排放。例如,在离开的时候关灯,节约用水。而且,我们应该利用我们的知识,采取行动来引起别人对降低二氧化碳排放的重要性的关注并引导他们过“低碳生活”。
低碳生活Low Carbon Life Low carbon life is popular nowadays.Its aim is to reduce the energy in our daily life, especially reduce the emissions of carbon dioxide.It is well-known that the air pollution is more and more serious.So we should do something to protect our earth.如今,低碳生活是很受欢迎的。其目的是为了减少我们日常生活中所消耗的能量,尤其是减少二氧化碳的排放量。众所周知,空气污染越来越严重。所以我们应该做些什么来保护我们的地球。
Firstly, we should take more bus instead of driving cars.As people’s living standard has improved, there are more and more people driving private cars.This phenomenon is one of the causes for air pollution.Because its gas will produce lots of carbon dioxide, which may eventually lead to air pollution.Secondly, when we leave our house or classroom, we would better turn of the lights, fans or air-conditioning.首先,我们应该多坐公车而不是开车。随着人们生活水平的提高,越来越多的人开私家车。这一现象是造成空气污染的原因之一。因为它排放的气体会产生大量的二氧化碳,这可能最终导致空气污染。其次,当我们离开我们的房子或教室时,我们最好把灯,风扇或空调关了。

I have many friends, but Jim is one of my best friends.He is not handsome, but kind-hearted.We know each other at primary school.He was the tallest in our class at that time.He is good at study and playing basketball, while bad at playing table tennis.Everytime he has delicious food, he will give it to me.Moreover, whenever I feel sad, he will play with me and comfort me.However, he is not spoilt me.For example, everytime I meet difficulties in study, I would like to copy his, but no matter what I say, he never give his homework to me to copy.Instead he teaches how to do it.All in all, no matter what difficulties I meet, he will help me.It is him make me realize that a friend in need is a friend indeed.我有很多朋友,不过吉姆是我最好的朋友之一。他长得不帅,但是很善良。我们在小学的时候就互相认识了。那时,他是我们班里最高的。他的学习成绩很好。他很擅长打篮球但是乒乓球却打得很烂。每次有好吃的他都让给我吃。而且每次我不开心的时候他都会陪我玩,安慰我。但是他并不宠溺我,比如说,在做作业的时候我遇到不懂的就总想抄他的,那个时候不管我怎么求他,他从来都没给我抄过作业,而是教我如何去写。总之不管我遇到什么困难,他都会帮助我。他让我明白了患难见真情。
点评:be good at 和 be bad at是一对反义词,前者是擅长于做某事,后者是不擅长于做某事。spoil有溺爱的意思。a friend in need is a friend indeed是一句谚语,患难见真情。
Maybe you will surprise that my best friend is book.But you don’t need to suspect you hearing, it’s true, book is my best friend.I like reading since I was a child.The knowledge in the book makes me feel enjoyable and peaceful.When I am unhappy, I will go to find my best friend---book.And then I will forget the things that make me unhappy and attract by the book’s content.From the book, I learn the story of Helen Keller, I know the history in the ancient times, I also know the culture of foreign countries that I have never been.Therefore, I think book will be my best friend forever.也许你会很惊讶,我最好的朋友是书。不过你不用怀疑你听到的,这是真的,我最好的朋友是书。在我还是个小孩的时候我就喜欢阅读。书中的知识能让我开心,平静。当我不开心的时候。我会去找我最好的朋友——书。之后我就会忘记了让我不开心的事情,被书中的内容吸引住了。从书中我懂得了海伦凯勒是的故事,知道了古代的历史,还了解到了我从未到过的国外的文化。所以,我觉得书永远都会是我最好的朋友。
点评:suspect是怀疑的意思。海伦凯勒的故事是一个励志的故事。
Tom is my best friend.Who is he?

点评:sleep late 是睡懒觉的意思。couldn't help 后要接动名词表示禁不住……

对待生活的两种态度 Two Attitudes towards Life There are two people watching outside the window.The first man can only see the rubbish, because he is a pessimist.He always complains about his life, as he always regards that God is not equal to him.While facing difficulties, he's always frightened.Therefore he often loses his chances to win.Reminding his old days, he's very regretful.Once his father had placed him at the entrance of the road and told him to be careful while choosing his life.But he has chosen the wrong way.Now he gets nothing from his journey but remorse and errors.He dares not to see his father in the haven.He often cries bitterly but in vain.No wonder he is a penniless failure.有两个人看着窗外。第一个男人只看到垃圾,因为他是一个悲观主义者。他总是抱怨自己的生活,因为他总是认为上帝对他不公平。在面对困难的时候,他总是害怕。因此他经常失去了获胜的机会。想起他以前的日子,他感到很遗憾。他父亲曾经将他放在道路的入口处并告诉他要小心选择自己的生活。但他选择了一条错误的路。现在,从他的旅程中他什么也没有得到,除了悔恨和错误。他不敢去见他在天堂的父亲。他经常痛哭但是徒然。难怪他是一个身无分文的失败者。
However, the second man is different from the first.Through the window, he can see the beautiful stars.As an optimist, he always smiles to everything.While facing difficulties, he still keeps a sense of humor.He can defeat all the setbacks and stumbling blocks by his great determination.And he often finds his life so colorful and interesting as he overcomes all the difficulties.What's more, he's very strong and powerful.Although life is very difficult outside, he still makes a great effort to overcome all the troubles.He's very brave and confident.He's so brave, brave enough to face the present life.He's so confident, confident enough to challenge himself.He's very easy-going and kind-hearted.He always helps others when they are in trouble.That's why he always owns a good fame.然而,第二个人和第一个人不一样。透过窗户,他看到了美丽的星星。作为一个乐观主义者,他总是微笑着面对一切。面对困难,他依然保持着幽默感。他可以通过强大的定力战胜所有的挫折和阻碍。他经常觉得他的生活是丰富多彩和有趣的,因为他克服了所有的困难。更重要的是,他非常强大。虽然生活很困难,他仍然可以通过努力克服所有的困难。他非常勇敢和自信。他是那么的勇敢,勇敢到可以面对现在的生活。他很自信,有足够的信心去挑战自己。他很随和,善良。他总是帮助那些有困难的人。这就是为什么他总是可以拥有好名声。
From the story, we know the fact that the second man has set a good example to us, so we must follow his good example.从这个故事中,我们知道一个事实,第二个人已经给我们树立了一个好的榜样,所以我们以他为榜样。
广告的利弊The Advantage and Disadvantage of Advertisement With the development of information, people have more and more chances to choose the commodities they like.But the more goods exist, the more confusion people feel in choosing one.Therefore, advertisement stands out to take the responsibility for people to choose the products they prefer.But advertising has advantages and disadvantages.Some people are in favor of it, while some are on the contrary.As for me, I’m in the neutral place.随着信息化的发展,人们有更多的机会选择自己喜欢的商品。但是商品越多,人们在选择的时候就越困惑。因此,广告站出来帮助人们选择他们喜欢的产品。但是广告既有优点也有缺点。有些人赞成,而有些人则相反。至于我,我在中立的立场。
On the one hand, advertisements help people have a better understanding about products.Advertisements always tell people the advantages and functions of the products.People can buy the things they want by reading advertisements.By the way, advertisements are free for consumers.Moreover, advertising is much more interesting than the instructions on the packaging box, because advertisements contain various factors, such as pictures, videos, voice plots and so on.Don’t you think it is a good way for choosing a product?
一方面,广告有助于人们更好地了解产品。广告总是告诉人们产品的优势和功能作用。通过阅读广告人们可以买到他们想要的东西。顺便说一下,广告对消费者是免费的。而且,广告也比包装盒上的说明书要有趣得多,因为广告包含各种元素,如图片,视频,情节等。难道你不觉得这是选择产品的一种好方法吗?
On the other hand, sometimes advertisements are tempting and deceptive.In order to attract the target customers, the advertiser will fill the content of decorating expressions, regardless of the filthy measures they have taken or the severe damages they may bring about.The advertisements always exaggerate the advantages and functions of the products.As a result, they mislead consumers to buy things that are not deserved.另一方面,有时候广告是具有诱惑性和欺骗性的。为了吸引目标客户,一些广告商为了满足修饰产品的作用,而忽视他们使用的一些肮脏措施,或者他们所带来的严重损害。广告经常夸大产品的优势和功能作用。结果,他们误导了消费者购买不值得的东西。
To sum up, advertisements have the good side and the opposite side.If we just take them as a reference, it will be good.But if we depend on them to buy things, we may suffer losses in the end.总之,广告有好的一面也有不好的一面。如果我们只是把它们当成是参考,广告会是好的。但是如果我们依赖于它们来买东西,我们最后可能会遭受损失。
改编经典 The Adaptation of the Classics In recent years, many adapted classics have appeared and aroused a great concern constantly.In these adapted works, we can find that even some typical characters and the plot of the classics are changed.Why do the adapted classics become so popular?
近年来,出现了很多经典改编,也不断引起了广泛的关注。在这些改编的作品中,我们可以发现,甚至一些典型人物和经典情节都变了。为什么改编经典如此受欢迎?
There are reasons I think can accounting for the phenomenon.First, there is no denying that the adaptation of classics is designated to cater for readers’ taste and the current trend, because a large number of people are absorbing by this kind of adapted works.Second, it is another way to absorb people’s attention and entertain people.Most of these adapted classics are funnier and easier to understand than the original one, and that arouse the readers more interest.Finally, the appearance of adapted classics is also a show of the conception of creativity.我觉得支持这一观点的理由有。首先,不可否认,经典的改编是为了迎合读者的口味和目前的趋势,因为许多人都被这种改编的作品吸引了。第二,那是换了另外一种方式来吸引人们的注意力、娱乐人们。大多数这些改编的经典都比原著更加的有趣并且更容易理解,这就使得读者更感兴趣。最后,经典改编的出现展示了创新的概念。
However, I am not appreciated this kind of action.For one thing, the adapted classics misinterpret the original meaning of the works and lower their real value.For another, it is a kind of destroy for our traditional culture and this kind of action will cause that our descendants have not chance to know and inherit our traditional culture.然而,我并不欣赏这种行为。一方面,改编的经典作品曲解了原著的意思也降低了其真是价值。另一方面,在某种程度上,它算是摧毁传统文化,会使得我们的后代没有机会认识并继承我国传统文化。
关于选秀节目 On Attending TV PK Shows With a success of a “Super Girl” show a few years ago, a growing number of “Super Girl” or “Super Boy” have been springing up in our country.Accordingly, a large number of young people swarm into taking part in this kind of shows.Concerning with this phenomenon, people have different opinions.随着几年前“超级女声”这个节目取得成功后,越来越多的“超级女声”或“超级男声”在我国兴起。据说,有大量的年轻人涌去参加这类节目。针对这一现象,不同的人有不同的意见。
For one thing, some people sing high praise of it because they consider this kind of shows as another chance to be famous.Some parents also argue that it is a good chance for youngsters to display their ability and personality.Some also point out that younger can broaden their horizon and increase their social contact through these shows.一方面,有人赞扬它因为他们觉得这一类的节目是成名的另一个机会。一些家长也认为这是年轻人展示自己的能力和个性的好机会。有的还指出,通过这些节目年轻人可以拓宽他们的视野,增加他们和社会的接触。
However, for another, those people who hold diverse views figure that it is not a rational choice for those who have no talent in the fields;on the contrary, taking part in these shows will increase their family financial burden and wasting their time.The worst thing is that some young people give up their studies to attend these shows and that will depress them a lot if they were lost in the shows.然而,另一方面,那些持有不同意见的人争论道,这对那些在那个领域没有天赋的人并不是理性的选择;相反,参加这些节目会增加他们家庭经济负担,浪费他们的时间。最糟糕的是,一些年轻人放弃了学业来参加这些节目,要是他们在节目中失败了会让他们很难过的。
Taking the above into account, I consider that people should think twice before they act, especially those who have no any talents in this field and those whose families are not so rich.But at the same time, I advocate that those who have some talents in singing or acting or other things can make a try.针对以上问题,我认为人们应该三思而后行,尤其是那些没有在这个领域没有天赋的人以及那些家庭不是很富裕的人。但同时,我认为支持那些在歌唱或表演或其他方面有天赋的人可以去试试。
大学不应为名人降低入学条件Universities Shouldn't Lower Admission
Requirements for Celebrities In recent years, some universities lower admission requirements for some celebrities who want to continue their study in college.Concerning with the issue, some people think it is acceptable while others disagree.In my point of view, there are no reasons for universities lowering admission requirements for celebrities for the following reasons.近年来,一些大学为一些名人们继续学习降低了入学要求。关于这个问题,有人认为这是可以接受的,有人则是不同意的。在我看来,没有任何理由为名人降低大学入学要求。
For one thing, lowering admission requirements for celebrities is unfair to those students who spare their efforts to enter college by examination and fair competition.If universities lower admission requirements for celebrities, some students will lose their chance to go to colleges for an unfair reason.And that is not good for carrying our national policy in fair education.For another, this kind of action will set a negative example for people in that celebrities have a great influence on our society.If universities treat the celebrities as special figures, more and more people will use these similar examples as an excuse to seek some special treatment in various areas, which will abet the corruption in our society.首先,降低标准招收名人学生对那些辛苦考试进入大学的人是不公平的也没有公平竞争。如果大学降低标准招收名人学生,有些学生会因为不公平的原因失去上大学的机会。这对推行平等教育国家政策方面是不好的。另一方面,这种行动会为人们建立不好的例子因为名人对社会有重大的影响。如果大学把名人当做特殊人物,越来越多的人将会使用类似的例子作为借口来在各个地方寻求特殊待遇,这在我们的社会中将会助长腐败现象。
Therefore, I oppose that universities lower admission requirement for celebrities because it will cause negative influences on students and our society.I advocate that celebrities should compete with other students to get the chance of entry colleges by fair means.因此,我反对大学为名人降低入学要求因为对学生和社会会造成负面影响。我认为名人应该与其他学生公平竞争获得进入大学的机会。
假如我有很多钱 If I Have a Lot of Money “What will you do if you have a lot of money?” This is a very complicated question.Perhaps some people want to buy an expensive car while some others want to buy a luxurious house.Or some people want to operate a company and so on.I also have my own attitude towards it.“如果你有很多钱,你会干什么?”这是一个非常复杂的问题。有人也许想买一辆昂贵的车,还有人想买一栋豪华的房子。或着有人想经营一个公司等。我也有我自己的想法。
If I have a lot of money, I will publish an English book under my name.Maybe I will be famous someday, because everyone will know the fact that I'm good at English.如果我有很多钱,我会用我的名字出版了一本英语书。也许有一天我会很出名,因为每个人都会知道我擅长英语的事实。
If I have a lot of money, I will help my best friend to set up a training school.Since this is his greatest dream.If I can make his dream come true, I will be very honorable.I will let him be the boss, but I only want to be his assistant.如果我有很多钱,我会帮助我最好的朋友建立一个培训学校。因为这是他最大的梦想。如果我能实现他的梦想,我会感到很光荣。我会让他成为老板,而我只想做他的助手。
If I have a lot of money, I will travel to various coast cities.As they are facing the sea, I can spend a wonderful time at the seaside.It is said that the seaside is so wonderful and beautiful.The sunrise is glorious at the seaside and surfing on the sea is very exciting.While facing the sea, I can enjoy endless pleasure.How charming it is while feeling the sea wind blowing to us.It's also wonderful to enjoy the beautiful sunshine on the golden beach.如果我有很多钱,我会去各沿海城市旅游。他们都面向大海,所以我能在海边度过一个美好的时光。据说,海边是非常美丽和美妙的。海边的日出很美,在海边冲浪也很刺激。面对大海,我可以享受到无穷的乐趣。多么迷人,感觉到海风吹向我们的时候是多么的迷人啊。在金色的沙滩上享受美丽的阳光也是非常棒的。
These are my beautiful dreams.Even though I find it a little difficult to fulfill my dreams, it doesn't matter, because where there is a will, there is a way.I believe I can realize my dreams through my great efforts.这些都是我美丽的梦想。虽然我很努力去实现我的梦想但是还是有点难度,不过没关系,因为有志者事竟成。我相信我能通过我的努力实现我的梦想。
月光族 The Moonlight Clan There are a small number of people called “the moonlight clan” in our society, who always run out of their income each month and have no plan to save money.Concerning with this kind of consumption conception, some consider it as a fashion while other oppose it.在我们的社会中有一小部分人叫“月光族”,他们每个月总是没有钱剩余也没有存钱的计划。关于这种消费观念,有人认为是时尚而其他则持反对态度。
Those who are in favor of this kind of consumption conception point out that being moonlight clan let them have more chances to enjoy lives and live in a high-quality life.However, the opponents argue that it is not a kind of rational conception because those called “the moonlight clan” may have no ability to cope with their rainy day.In addition, this kind of consumption habit put a premium on extravagance and waste to some extent.那些支持这种消费观念的人指出成为月光族让他们有更多的机会享受生活,过高质量的生活。然而,反对者则认为那不是理性的概念,因为那些所谓的“月光族”在他们低迷的时候可能没有能力应付。此外,这种消费习惯在某种程度上形成了奢侈浪费。
Taking the two opinions into consideration, I am inclined to agree with the latter one.From my point of view, the life of the moonlight clan is more luxurious or high-quality but they may be lack of sense of security, especially in their rainy day.Therefore, I still advocate that all of us should keep some money at any time so that we will not be too difficult in our rainy day.考虑到以上两个观点,我倾向于同意后者。从我的角度来看,月光族的生活更豪华或质量更高但是他们也许会缺乏安全感,尤其是低迷的时候。因此,我仍然认为我们所有人在任何时候都应该存一些钱,这样在困难的时候就不会过得太艰辛。
假文凭 Fake Diplomas In our society, the use of fake diplomas has been a serious problem and causes a lot of trouble and loss in many aspects.So what should we do to eliminate this phenomenon?
在我们的社会里,假文凭的使用已经成为一个严重的问题,并在方方面面造成了很多的麻烦和损失。所以我们应该做点什么来消除这一现象?
We can never ignore the bad influence that fake diplomas bring to us.For one thing, it intensifies the unfairness in our society in that those who use fake diplomas to occupy the seats that should belong to those who have enough qualification and ability.For another, in most cases, those who use fake diplomas are not qualified for their jobs and that will bring a large amount loss for the companies or constitutions they work for.In addition, it will put a premium on cheating.我们绝不能忽视假文凭给我们带来的不良影响。一方面,它加剧了社会的不公,那些使用假文凭的人占了本应属于那些有足够资格和能力的人的位置。另一方面,在大多数情况下,那些使用假文凭却无法胜任工作的人会为他们工作的公司或组织带来大量的损失。此外,这也将会助长作弊现象。
Therefore, effective action should be taken to eliminate fake diplomas right away.In my opinion, our relevant departments should control strictly in conferring diplomas.Moreover, those who use fake diplomas should be punished seriously and announced in public.To put it in a nutshell, we should spare no effort to eliminate fake diplomas.因此,应该马上采取有效的行动来消除假文凭现象。在我看来,我国有关部门要严格控制文凭的授予。而且,那些使用假文凭的人应该受到严惩,并公开宣布。简而言之,我们应该不遗余力地消除假文凭现象。
我更愿意在大城市生活 I Prefer to Live in the Big City I prefer to live in the big city.I was a rural child.When I was a little kid, I was curious about kids living in the big cities.Great school, modern equipment, luxurious house, they were one of my dreams in the childhood.But now, I am a college student, and I still want to live in the big city and I don’t want to be a small fish in a big pond.A big city always means more opportunities, more career development and naturally higher salary.我喜欢住在大城市。我是一个农村的孩子。当我还是个孩子的时候,我就很好奇生活在大城市的孩子。大大的学校,现代化的设备,豪华的房子,它们是我童年的一个梦想。但现在,我是一个大学生,我还想住在大城市,我不想成为大池塘中的小鱼。大城市总是意味着有更多的机会,更多的职业发展、自然也就有更高的薪水。
In addition, my future children are inclined to get an education with a higher quality compared with the counterparts who live in the small city.Furthermore, there are more commodities and services, more available public utility, even more foreign guys to communicate with.You know, as an English major student, it is really essential yardstick.另外,同样情况下,与小城市相比,我未来孩子也会想要得到更好的教育。此外,还有更多的商品和服务,提供更多的公共事业,甚至有更多的外国人可以进行交流。你知道,作为一名英语专业的学生,这是真的很重要。
Every upside has a downside.I have to admit that living in a small city has its own advantages, like less completion pressure, more fresh air and a quieter atmosphere.But personally speaking, to live in a metropolis is never an unwise choice for me.什么事情都有优缺点。我不得不承认,住在在小城市里也有它的优势,如压力比较小,更多的新鲜空气和宁静的气氛。但就我个人来说,生活在大都市从来都不会是不明智的选择。
长征 The Long March If there is anyone who still doubts that China is a nation of diligence and bravery, the Long March is definitely one of the most persuasive evidences.Taking a whole year to achieve, suffering all sorts of difficulties, it would be a great miracle in human race.如果有人对中华民族是一个勤劳,勇敢的国家产生怀疑,长征绝对是最具有说服力的证据。长征在人累进程中是一个奇迹,用一年的时间经历了各种各样的困难取得了成功。
In October, 1934, the Red Army began their march from Ruijin, Jiangxi Province because of the failure of the fifth counter-encirclement.Going westward with unimaginable effort to break through 4 blockade lines, they arrived at Xiang River in December.In the middle January, 1935, after the occupation of Zunyi, the Red Army held the well-known “Zunyi Meeting”, at which Mao Zedong’s leadership was established.Then, they amazingly crossed the Jinsha River which made them cast off the besiegement of KMT.And they went on the march northward, passing through Daliang Mountain, capturing Luding Bridge, and crossing the Jiajin Mountain perennially covered with snow.In the middle of June, the Red Fourth Army was joined forces.Aiming at setting up three more basements, the whole mixed army was divided into two parts to plod through grasslands.Having won several campaigns on the way to north, the Red Army finally got to Wuqi Town, which was the early end of the Long March.1934年十月,红军开始从江西省瑞金进军,因的第五次反围剿失败。向西进军用无法想象的努力突破第四道封锁线,他们在十二月到达乡河。在1935年一月中旬,占领遵义后,红军举行了著名的“遵义会议”,建立了毛泽东领导。然后,他们惊人地横跨了金沙江,使他们摆脱了国民党的围攻。之后他们就向北进军,穿过大良山,巧夺泸定桥,穿越终年积雪的夹金山。在六月中旬,红军第四军加入了。旨在建立三个地下室,整个军队被分成两部分来通过草原。在北进过程中赢得了几个战役,红军终于到达吴起镇,这就是长征早期的结束。
Although this was not the eventual end of the Long March, every step remained in 14 provinces had absolutely reflected the Long-March spirit which would always be the highest expression of the Chinese people's being indomitable and constantly striving to become stronger.虽然这不是长征最终的结束,但他们留在14省的脚步已经完全反映了长征精神将是中国人民永远百折不挠、自强不息的最好的表达。
五一出游 My Labor's Day It is a memory full of joy that we have 3 day off for labor’s day.To celebrate this short holiday, my uncle decided to take us to Yangmei ancient town to have a visit.劳动节放的那三天假是充满欢乐的记忆。为了庆祝这个短暂的假期,我叔叔决定带我们去参观杨梅古镇。
The road to the town is really painful.We waited for about 4 hours to board the ship.The mosquito on the road made my little cousin cry all the time.I felt just like it was the worst day in my life.Our car was in the end of line, and the start of the line was unknown.They said there was only one ship that only brings 8 cars at a time.I considered going home but I really wanted to have a look at that ancient town, so we waited.Thank god.The endless waiting did have an end.We arrived Yangmei at 2 o’clock in the afternoon.去古镇上的路是很艰难的。我们大约等了4个小时的船。在路上有很多蚊子弄得我小堂弟一整天都在哭。我感觉那就像是我一生中最糟糕的一天。我们的车停在最后面,最前面在哪里根本就不知道。他们说只有一艘而且一次只能运八辆车。我都想要回家了,但我真的很想看看这个古镇,所以我们等着。感谢上帝!无尽的等待终于结束了。我们在下午两点钟到达杨梅古镇。
The town is really amazing.Modern architectural design seems no effect the buildings there.People there still live in the house make of woods and black brick.They grow plants in the house.In the hall, it is evergreen, means the family is like the plant never decays.In the front door are some flowers with bright color, or a tree with age.The family tree is on the wall.We can see the beginning of their family was Ming Dynasty.One of the restaurants there impressed me.The restaurant is an ancient house of a big and rich family.The house is old with a bed where people lay and did some reading in the old times.The most interesting thing was that there are two red bridal sedan chairs in the front door.They are telling the love and marriage in the old days.The house also has an attic.Water flows through the tube on the left side of it.那个镇真是太神奇了。现代化建筑设计似乎并没对它造成任何影响。那里的人民仍然住在用木头和青砖搭建的房子里。他们在家里种植物。在大厅里种着万年青意味着家庭就像植物一样永远不会衰落。在前门种着颜色鲜艳的花,或有一定年纪的树。家谱就挂在墙上。我们可以看到他们家族的开始是明代。那里其中一个餐厅给我留下了深刻的印象。餐厅是属于一个富有的大家庭的一个古老的房子。房子很旧里面有一张床,在古代人们就躺那看书。最有趣的是,在前门有两个红色的新娘花轿。他们在说以前的爱情与婚姻。房子里面也有一个阁楼。水在阁楼左边的水管中流过去。
A river runs through this town, and the water is clean.We chose a riverside restaurant to have our lunch.The food there was wonderful.We had a good time there.Despite the traffic jams.Yangmei is really a good place to visit.I hope I can visit there again when all the roads and ships are ready for cars.有一条河横穿过这个镇,河水是干净的。我们选了一个河边餐厅吃午饭。那里的食物很美味。我们玩得很开心。尽管交通堵塞,但是杨梅仍然是个去玩的好地方。等到路和船都为汽车做好准备时,我希望我能再去那里玩。
热爱自然 Love Our Nature Previously, I lived in the countryside where the sun always rose.Every morning, I got up early to see the sunrise.As the sun came out, trees, flowers, birds and other animals woke up from their long sleep and smiled gently towards the sun.“What a glorious view!” I whispered.But as I moved to the city, I could hardly see such a glorious view now.Nowadays, with the development of society, the living step is so fast that we are always so busy and we don't even have the time to take a breath.While in our free time, we can do nothing but play computer games.What a dull life it is!I eagerly want to return to our nature.以前我住在太阳升起的农村。每天早上我都早起看日出。太阳出来的时候,树木,花儿,鸟而还有其他动物都从长眠中迎着太阳微笑醒来。我低声说,“多么壮丽的景色!”但是当我搬到城市里后,我现在几乎都看不到这样辉煌的景色。如今,随着社会的发展,生活节奏如此的快让我们总是在忙碌中,甚至都没有时间喘口气。而在我们空闲的时候,我们能做的又只是玩电脑游戏。多么乏味的生活啊!我迫切回归自然。
To make things worse, as a result of modernization, pollution is a serious problem.Nowadays we often breathe the dusty air and drink the dirty water.What's more, we always suffer from the noise and the heavy light pollution.I'm really tired of this life.I want to change it.If I have a chance, I will get up early to see the sunrise, in order to embrace our nature.更糟糕的是,由于现代化的原因,污染成了一个很严重的问题。我们现在经常呼吸着多粉尘的空气、喝脏脏的水。更重要的是,我们经常遭受噪音和严重的光污染。我真的厌倦了这样的生活。我想做出改变。如果我有机会,我会早起看日出,来拥抱自然。
As far as I'm concerned, our nature is our mother.She offers us everything we want or need.If our nature disappears, human-beings will be in great danger.Therefore, we must love our nature unconditionally.Don't always ask too much from her but return her nothing.Moreover, as her sons and daughters, we should always appreciate for her bounty.我觉得自然是我们的母亲。她为我们提供了我们想要的或需要的一切。如果自然消失了,人类就会陷入危险中。因此,我们必须无条件地爱护自然。不要向她索取太多,不然她会报复回来的。此外,作为儿女,我们应该感激她的馈赠。
学生使用信用卡 Credit Cards on Campus Nowadays, credit cards have been increasingly popular on campus in that banks are growingly paying their attention to students and laying out various policies to cater for students’ need.People hold different views towards students’ owning credit cards.As far as I am concerned, it is necessary for students to keep credit cards.如今,信用卡在校园中已经越来越流行了,因为银行越来越关注学生并制定各种政策来满足学生的需求。对于学生拥有信用卡人们有不同的看法。我觉得是有必要的。
There are reasons accounting for my view.For one thing, it is convenient for students to deal with various financial matters.Students can use their credit cards to pay their tuition fees and other fares and that is safer than pocket a large sum of money go everywhere.For another, using credit cards is a good way to teach students to improve their ability in managing their money and form good habit in spending money.For instance, students who receive their pocket money at the beginning of the month have to make a plan to spend their money before they consume with the credit cards, so that they will not suffer from lacking of money at the end of the month.In addition, the overdrawing function of the credit cards provides a chance for those students who cannot afford their tuition fees to continue to receive their education.我认为以下原因能支持我的观点。一方面,它便于学生处理各种财务问题。学生可以使用他们的信用卡来支付他们的学费和其他费用,这比装着一口袋的钱到处走要安全得多。另一方面,使用信用卡可以提高学生管理金钱的能力,并养成良好的花钱习惯。例如,在月初时学生得到的零花钱必须要在使用信用卡的之前制定计划,这样他们就不会在月底资金短缺。此外,信用卡的透支功能为那些无法交付学费的学生提供继续接受教育的机会。Although some students overdraw their money from their credit cards to buy luxurious and unnecessary things that will increase their family financial burden, I consider that the advantages far outweigh its disadvantages.虽然一些学生透支信用卡来购买会增加家庭经济负担的奢侈品和不必要的东西,但是我认为它的优点远远大于它的缺点。
Thus, I consider that it is necessary for students to use credit cards.Besides, they also should be taught to use it properly and form a correct notion of consume.因此,我认为学生使用信用卡是有必要的。此外,他们还应该得到教导如何正确使用信用卡,形成正确的消费观念。
学生应通过考试 Students Should Pass All the Courses Whether college students should pass all the courses or not has always been a controversial issue.Some argue that college students have the responsibility to accomplish their courses to make sure that they have learned something in college, while others hold the opinion that student has the right to choose their favorite classes rather than all the courses arranged for them.As far as I concerned, I incline to the idea that students should pass all the courses they take so that they can not only get a bachelor’s degree but also can learn more.大学生是否应该通过所有课程一直是一个有争议的问题。有些人认为,大学生们有责任去完成他们的课程以确保他们在大学学到了东西,而另一些人则认为学生应该权利选择自己喜欢的课程而不是接受他们安排的所有课程。就我而言,我认为学生应该通过他们所学的所有课程,这样他们就不仅仅是只得到了学士学位,也可以学到更多。
On one hand, passing each course is the necessity to get a bachelor’s degree.Almost all universities urge students to pass all their courses so that they can finally get a bachelor’s degree.If not, students won’t get a certificate which means years of study for a degree go in vain.Nowadays, a bachelor’s degree is the guarantee to a good job.Therefore, most students fight for a degree which means they should try their best to past all the courses arranged for them.一方面,通过每个是获得学士学位的必要条件。几乎所有的大学都要求学生通过他们的课程,这样才能获得学士学位。如果没通过,学生就不会得到证书也就意味着几年的学习就白费了。如今,学士学位是获得一份好工作的保证。因此,大多数学生都会为了学位而奋斗,这就意味着他们要努力通过所有安排给他们的课程。
On the other hand, our society needs versatile people implies that students should take more courses to learn more so that they could be accepted by high-leveled position, although some of the courses are not their majors.To be high qualified, students should master knowledge they learned from their courses and pass them at the same time.Although passing the exam does not mean students have mastered what they learn, if not passing them, it’s certain that they don’t do well in their study.Moreover, failing in some exams may make people doubt that your learning ability is not so good.The employers may think twice before hiring you.另一方面,我们社会需要多功能人才,意味着学生应该接受更多的课程学习,这样他们才可以得到高级别的职位,虽然有些课程并不是他们的专业。为了成为高素质人才,学生们应掌握他们从课程中学到的知识并同时通过他们。虽然通过考试并不意味着学生已经掌握了他们所学的知识,但是如果没及格,他们肯定是没有学好。此外,在一些考试中不及格可能会使人怀疑你的学习能力不太好。雇主会雇用你之前会三思。
To sum up, as students, they have the responsibility to pass all exams to get a certificate for a better job, but also to make them high-qualified to win in the competitive job market.总之,作为学生,他们有责任通过考试获得证书来得到一份更好的工作,而且还使他们更有资格在竞争激烈的就业市场取得胜利。
政府鼓励大学生创业 College Students Starting Their Own
Undertakings Nowadays, it is a common phenomenon that our government offers some policies or conveniences to college students who want to start their own undertakings, such as lending loan and subsidy, reducing tax.These measures have a great contribution to encourage students’ starting their own undertakings.如今,我国政府为想要自主创业的大学生提供一些政策或方便已成为普遍现象,如贷款,补贴,降低税收等。这些措施对鼓励学生自主创业做出了很大的贡献。
But what are the reasons for our government to encourage college students to start their own undertakings? I think there are several reasons can account for it.First, it is a good way to relieve our social heavy employment pressure.If some students can start their own undertakings, they will not go to compete with others as well as provide some job opportunities for others.Second, encouraging college students to start their own undertakings is good for our national development in many aspects, such as commerce, industry.In addition, encouraging students to start their own undertakings has a contribution to encourage students to apply their knowledge to practice and then make their contribution to our motherland.但是我国政府鼓励大学生自主创业的原因是什么呢?我认为有几个理由可以解释。首先,它是缓解社会就业压力的一个好方法。如果一些学生可以自主创业,他们既不会去和别人竞争,也会为他人提供一些工作机会。第二,鼓励大学生自主创业在多方面都是有助于我们国家的发展,如商业,工业。此外,鼓励学生们自主创业是在鼓励学生把所学知识运用到实践中,为自己的祖国作贡献。
Thus, I appreciate our government’s encouraging to college students to start their own undertakings because that will have some great and positive effects on students, society and our nation.I hope more and more students can benefit from our government’s help and subsidy.因此,我很感谢我国政府鼓励大学生自主创业因为这对学生,社会,我们的国家会产生一些积极的影响。我希望更多的学生能从我们政府的帮助和补助中受益。支持不废除死刑 Death Penalty Should Exist Although the problem of keeping or abolishing death penalty has not reached an agreement in the long debate, the argument put by the two sides enables us to stand on the forefathers’ shoulder to view this problem: should death penalty be abolished? Different people have different opinions.I think it should not be abolished.The followings are my reasons:
关于死刑的存废,数百年的争论虽然没有使这一问题形成定论,但争论使存废两派的支持者发挥得淋漓尽致,使我们有机会站在前人的肩膀上冷静地看待这个问题:死刑到底应不应该废除?我的答案是不该废除。以下是我的观点:
Firstly, death penalty is the necessary way to punish some special crimes.As our society is very complicated, it is easy to appear some series crimes.Those crimes are not forgiven.In order to keep the society stable, the government should publish those people by death penalty.Otherwise, the society will not be safe.首先,死刑是对付特定恶性犯罪的必要手段。由于社会状况复杂,难免在一定时期出现穷凶极恶的犯罪。这些犯罪都是不可原谅的。为了保持社会稳定,政府应该用死刑来惩罚那些人。否则这个社会将不再安全。
Secondly, when a person kills people, he does not receive death penalty, but other punishment, like life imprisonment.Does anybody think that life imprisonment is a waste of resource, and once the prisoner runs away from the prison, it is dangerous to the society? While death penalty won’t make that happen.Therefore, death penalty cannot be replaced by other punishment.第二,当一个人杀人后,他没有被处以死刑,而是其他的惩罚,如终身监禁。有没有人觉得终身监禁是在浪费资源,而且一旦囚犯从 监狱中逃脱,这个社会就会变得很危险。而死刑不会让这种事发生。所以,死刑不能由别的惩罚代替。
Recently, Norway suffered a huge explosion and a shooting, which declaring the abolition of capital punishment is unwise.Nearly a hundred people died in the two events that were and made by the same boy.However, as the law is too permissive, the boy was sentenced to imprisonment for 14 years and he could be released on parole.Norwegians worry about that the people who cause great harm cannot be executed.After 14 years, he can walk in the street again, which it is very frightened.According to the survey, 80% of Norwegians want the boy to be sentenced to death, but the Norwegian law doesn't have the death penalty.The example can be quite clear that death penalty should exist.最近,挪威遭受了一次巨大的爆炸和枪击,这就说明了废除死刑是不明智的。近百人在这两个事件中死亡,而制造这些事件的人都是同一个男孩。然而,由于法律宽容,男孩只被判处14年监禁,而且他也可以被假释。挪威人担心造成这么大伤害的人而不处决。14年后,他又可以在街上行走,真的是很吓人。据调查,80%的人希望这孩子被判处死刑,但挪威法律没有死刑。这个例子可以很清楚地证明应存在死刑。
In short, the death penalty helps society become stable.China's securities need the death penalty.So, I think it should not be abolished.总之,死刑让社会变得更稳定。中国的安定需要死刑。所以,我认为死刑不应该被废除。
给朋友的一封信A Letter to a Friend Dear Leo, 亲爱的里奥:
How are you? TEM-4 is around the corner.According to the teachers’ telling, I know passing TEM4 is not an easy thing.Although it may not be too difficult to pass it, getting a high mark needs hard work.So I often go to the library to study.I like the feeling of working hard.While I prepare for the exam, I often feel so satisfied.I think it’s a good thing for me to prepare TEM4.The most difficult thing for me to do well in TEM-4 is the vocabulary.I find it’s hard to remember, and I am unwilling to remember words, because in middle school and high school I didn't need to remember vocabulary on purpose.I can remember them through the exercises.Unfortunately, I can’t do it now.But my problem is I still can’t find a good method which is fit for me to remember vocabulary well.Could you do me a favor? I am looking forward to your replying.Best wishes!
你好吗?英语专业四级考试迫在眉睫。从老师的口中,我知道通过英语专业四级考试并不是一件容易的事情。虽然通过这个考试并不是很困难,但是想要取得高分就得很努力学习。所以我经常去图书馆学习。我喜欢努力学习的感觉。在我准备考试的时候,我经常感到心满意足。我认为准备英语专业四级考试对我来说是好的。在英语专业四级考试中对我来说最困难的事是词汇。我发现很难记住单词,而且我也不愿意去记单词,因为在初中和高中的时候我不需要特意去记词汇。我可以通过做练习记住单词。不幸的是,我现在做不到了。但我的问题在于我仍然找不到适合我记单词的好方法。你可以帮我吗我期待你的回复。万事如意。
Sincerely yours, John 约翰
现代社会中的家庭主男 House Husband in Modern Society Nowadays, house husband has become a hot phenomenon in modern society.As we all know that no matter what country, it’s a tradition that men play a core role in family who always take the burden to earn money to support their family.But things are kind of different as society develops, more and more men are beginning to take over housework while women go out from house.In my point of view, I think this is not a big deal.如今,家庭主男已经成为现代社会中的一个热点现象。我们都知道,无论什么样的国家,男人在家庭中起着核心作用一直都是传统,他们接起挣钱养家的责任。但随着社会的发展,情况已经变了,越来越多的男性开始接管家务,而女性则走出家庭。在我看来,这并不是什么大不了的事情。
In the first place, house husband may be a shame title for men, but when it comes to money, there is no room for reputation.As society develops, the life standard are rising, and everything for living is much expensive than before, if couples want to guarantee their life quality, then they should let the one who earn better to work, although the one is female.首先,家庭主男对男性来说可能是一个可耻的称呼,但当谈到钱的时候,名声就站不住脚了。随着社会的发展,生活水平的提高,生活中的一切东西都比以前昂贵了,如果一对夫妇要保证他们的生活质量,那么他们应该让工资更高的人去工作,就算那个是女性也一样。
In the second place, it’s fine for women to support family as long as they earn better than men.In the past, women always were treated very badly, and they got no rights to be educated, to work.In some countries, they can’t even show their face to others.A traditional female role is to stay at home, taking care of children and do all of the housework.But now, lots of women have a good job, so that they totally have the ability to be the economic backbone.Therefore, in order to take good care of family, men are likely to stay at home to do housework.I don’t think it’s a shame for men, because no matter what you do, as long as you do it well, you are successful.第二,只要女性能比男性挣得更多,让她们来支撑家庭也是可以的。在过去,女性一直被恶劣对待,他们也没有受教育,工作的权利。在一些国家,她们甚至不能给别人看她们的脸。传统的女性角色是呆在家里,照顾孩子,做所有的家务。但是现在,许多女性都有一份好的工作,他们完全有能力成为家里的经济支柱。因此,为了照顾家庭,男性更有可能呆在家里做家务。我不认为这是男人的耻辱,因为无论你做什么,只要你做得好,你就是成功的。
To sum up, people should change their opinion about core role of a family.It’s acceptable for women to support the family, and there is no shame for men to do the housework.As long as you remember life quality comes first.综上所述,人们应该改变关于在家庭中谁起核心作用的观点。女性养家是可接受的,所以男性做家务也是不用感到羞耻的。只要记住生活质量才是最重要的。
乡村之变 The Changes in Countryside Nowadays, thanks to the reform and opening-up policy, great changes have taken place in countryside.Now let me introduce some changes in details.如今,由于改革开放政策,在农村发生了巨大变化。现在让我介绍一些具体的变化。
In the past, farmers used to live in the huts which were in poor quality.They would be destroyed easily in the heavy storm.But nowadays, most farmers have their own houses and flats.Some houses are even bigger and more marvelous than the ones in the city.过去,农民们常常住在质量差的小屋。这样的小屋在暴雨中很容易会被破坏。但如今,大多数农民都有自己的房子和公寓。有些房子甚至比城市里的更大、更不可思议。
In the past, farmers usually starved to death in disasters, because they had nothing to eat.But nowadays, farmers can plant many corps to live with or sell them.No wonder that most of them are wealthy.在过去,农民通常饿死在灾难中,因为他们没有东西可以吃。但现在,农民可以种植很多庄稼来维持生活或者拿来出售。难怪大部分都是富有的。
In the past, farmers were hardly to see the outside world, since they had to tramp over the mountains if they wanted to go out.But nowadays, many high ways and tunnels have been built, so it’s convenient for them to go out.Moreover, most farmers also have their private cars.Therefore, they can go anywhere they like.在过去,农民们很难看看外面的世界,因为如果他们想出去的话,他们不得不徒步翻山越岭。但现在,建立了很多高速公路、隧道,人们出去是很方便的。此外,大多数的农民也有自己的私家车。因此,他们可以去任何他们喜欢的地方。
In the past, farmers always suffered from the diseases, because there was no doctor at all.But nowadays, many hospitals have come into being in countryside, so they can be cured in time.在过去,农民经常遭受病痛,因为根本就没有医生。但如今,在农村里也有很多医院了,所以他们可以及时得到治愈。
In the past, it was difficult for children to study in countryside.But nowadays, as there are so many schools in countryside, more and more children can get a better education.在过去,农村的孩子很难去上学。但现在,因为在农村有很多学校,越来越多的孩子可以得到更好的教育。
What a wonderful life in countryside.Maybe countryside will be more thriving than the city in the near future.在农村的生活是多么美好啊。也许在不久的将来农村会比城市更加繁荣。
阅读经典的重要性 The Importance of Reading Classics
There is no denying that people can get a lot benefits from reading classics.On the one hand, it is a good way for readers to broaden their horizon and increase their knowledge in many aspects.For instance, they can learn the society characters by reading classic literature novels about history or culture.On the other hand, it also provides a chance for them to enhance their aesthetic taste in that most of classics has a very beautiful or unique language style and arts, which gives readers more enjoyment and interest.不可否认的是人们从阅读经典中可以获益匪浅。另一方面,阅读经典也是让读者开阔视野、多方面增加知识的好方式。例如,他们可以通过阅读关于历史和文化的文学经典小说来了解社会人物。另一方面,阅读经典还为他们提供增强审美观的机会,因为大部分的经典都有着美丽而独特的语言风格和艺术,这可以给读者更多的享受和兴趣。
However, nowadays a large number of people, especially the young, are unwilling to or cannot spend their times in reading classics.There are some reasons accounting for the phenomenon and I would like to state two of them.For one thing, people are distracted by other things increasingly, which can give their more joy and fun and have no requirement in thinking, such as all kinds of entertainment activities.For another, some people think that it is no use of reading classics because these classics are outdated and useless to our society and lives.然而,如今许多人,尤其是年轻人,不愿意或不能花时间去阅读经典。对于这一现象有很多原因,这里我只想列出两点。一方面,越来越多的人被由其他的东西分散了注意力,它们可以给他们更多的乐趣也不用思考,如各种娱乐活动。另一方面,有些人认为阅读经典是没有用的,因为这些经典著作在我们的社会和生活中已经过时了而且也没有用。
In my opinion, it is wrong to consider classics as an outdated matter because it still has many important functions and influence on our society and our lives.Classics are a kind of treasure in a nation.Therefore, we should give enough attention to them.And I advocate that all of us should try our best to read some of them.在我看来,把经典著作看作是过时的东西是错误的,因为它在我们的社会和生活中仍然有重要的作用和影响。经典是一个国家的一种财富。因此,我们应该给予足够的重视。我认为我们都应该尽量去读一些书。
电子书不能取代传统书籍 E-Books Can Not Replace Traditional Books With the development scientific technology and the improvement of people’s life standard, a growing number of e-books have been available for the readers.Therefore, some people hold the idea that e-books will replace traditional books in the future, because the former is more advantageous than the latter, such as more convenient and less expensive.随着科技的发展和人们生活水平的提高,读者可以看到越来越多的电子书。因此,有些人认为电子书在未来会取代传统书籍,因为前者比后者更有优势,如更方便和更便宜。
However, as far as I am concerned, e-books will not and cannot replace traditional books.First, compared with traditional books, we cannot get the same pleasure from reading e-books in that e-books are easier to make our eyes to be tired and dry when reading.Second, with concern about copyright, there are many books are not available in digital form, especially classics.In other words, the resource of e-books is quite limited and cannot satisfy the readers.Third, there is a function of traditional books that e-books do not have—as a gift and a collection.I suppose that those who love reading would be willing to keep a printed form even though he has read the electronic form of it.然而,我认为电子书不会、也不能取代传统书籍。首先,与传统书籍相比,从电子书中我们不能获得同样的乐趣,因为电子书阅读的时候更容易使我们的眼睛累,干燥。第二,因为版权问题,有许多书是没有电子形式,尤其是一些经典著作。换句话说,电子书的资源是非常有限,无法满足读者。第三,传统书籍有一个电子书没有的功能——作为礼物或拿来收集。我想那些爱阅读的人会愿意保存着纸质版的书,尽管他已经阅读过电子版的了。
In a word, traditional books will continue to be the most important form in our reading.总之,在阅读方面,传统书籍会一直成为最重要的形式。
论微博的流行 On the Popularity of Micro Blog Nowadays, there is a common phenomenon that the micro blog is more and more popular.Many people use micro blog to do a lot of things, including expressing their hearts, exchanging each other’s ideas, delivering information and so on.Micro blog is playing an important role in our society life.如今,有一种非常流行的东西就是微博。许多人都在用微博做很多事,包括表达心声,交流思想,传递信息等等。微博在我们的社会生活正扮演一个重要的角色。
As it’s known to all, there are many reasons for micro blog’s popularity.Firstly, with the development of the Internet, more and more people have their own computers and cell phones which are advanced.As a result, traditional communicating ways are getting changed.Micro blog is one of the new styles.The next, micro blogs are as convenient as short messages, but much cheaper.What’s more, not only does it send word messages, but also it can carry pictures and sounds.众所周知,微博的流行有很多原因。首先,随着网络的发展,越来越多的人有了自己的先进的电脑和手机。所以,传统的交流方式逐渐改变了。微博就是新型方式的一种。其次,微博跟短信一样方便但更便宜。再说,微博不仅能发文字信息,还能发送图片和声音。
Just like coins have two sides, the micro blog also has its disadvantages.We should know that micro blog is merely a way of relaxing ourselves.Too much time spent on micro blog is not wise.What we should do is bridging the balance between play and study or work.In addition, micro blog perhaps show up our individual secrets, which maybe a tool for some bad men.任何事物都是双面的,微博也有不好的一面。我们应该知道微博仅仅是一种放松自己的方式。在微博上花太多时间是不明智的。我们应该掌握好玩耍和学习与工作之间的平衡。另一方面,微博可能泄露我们的隐私,从而成为坏人的工具。
大学应只开设专业课程 Universities Should Develop Curriculum about
Major Student should learn well on their major, so that they can get a good job in the future.Universities develops the curriculum about student’s major field ensure student learn more on that field.Moreover, the curriculum focuses on the major will not confuse student’s goals.They will know what exactly they should do by paying all their attention on one field.学生应该学好他们的专业知识,这样他们才能在将来获得一份好工作。高校开展专业课程来确保学生在该专业领域学到更多。确保学生的学习更多关于那场。而且,课程的重点主要集中在专业上,不会干扰到学生的目标。把注意力集中在一个领域可以让他们确切地知道什么是应该做的。
Firstly, a broad field of knowledge is not enough for getting a good job.I am afraid that the curriculum covers a broad field will make students know many things but good for nothing.It is better to have a curriculum focuses on one field and that it is easier for students to have more time working on their major and learn deep on it.Having good knowledge can help students to find a good job after graduate.首先,广阔的知识领域对于找到一份好的工作是不够的。恐怕覆盖了广泛领域的课程会让学生了解很多事情但是却一点用都没有。最好是有一门课把重点只放在一个领域上,这样学生可以更容易有更多的时间来学习专业知识并进行深入学习。具有良好的知识可以帮助学生毕业后找到一份好工作。
Secondly, Students spend a lot of time on a range fields of knowledge cannot concentrate on their major, because they have to work hard on all subjects that really distribute their attention about their major.Student will soon confuse what their priority is.If all classes are focused on student’s major, student can make it clear that what they should do first and they can follow their teachers easily, because they put all their attention and time on that major.其次,学生在大范围的知识学习上花大量的时间,他们会无法集中精力与他们的专业上,因为在每个学科上他们都必须要努力学习,这样真的会分散他们对专业学习的注意力。学生会很快疑惑他们应该把什么放在第一位。如果所有的课程都集中在学生的专业上,学生就能清楚地了解他们首先应该做什么,也能够更好地跟着老师走,因为他们把所有的时间和精力都放在了该专业上。
From all these above , I think that universities should develop a curriculum focuses on student’s major field to make sure student have more time to work on their major and do well on it.If students want to learn something more than their major, they can learn it after school, there is no need to develop a curriculum covers a broad range of fields.从上述中,我认为大学应该开展专业课程来确保学生有更多的时间放在专业上,并学好。如果学生想比专业知识学习更多,他们可以放学后学习,没有必要开设涵盖广泛领域的课程。
大学毕业生应该创业还是就业?Should Graduates be Business or
Employment Should College Graduates Start Their Own Business?
1.目前大学毕业生就业竞争非常激烈
2.有人认为去找工作不如自己创业
3.我的看法……
Should College Graduates Start Their Own Business? 大学毕业生应否自己创业
With the competition in the job market becoming increasingly fierce for college graduates,some ambitious students have tried their hands at launching their own businesses.Over the years,there have been many successful cases of student entrepreneurship and such attempts should be encouraged and promoted by both the universities and the society at large.对于大学毕业生来说,随着就业市场上的竞争日趋白热化,某些雄心勃勃的学生已开始尝试着去自己创业。在过去几年中,已出现了诸多学生创业的成功案例,因此,此类尝试理应获得学校和整个社会的鼓励与推动。
College students who start businesses are pioneers,among whom will be born China’s future business leaders.Faced with unknown challenges,they are audacious enough to embark on a perilous journey while most of their peers enjoy stable salaries by working as white-collars at high-end office buildings.Nevertheless,they are the masters of their own destiny and,exposed to many more uncertainties and setbacks,they develop perseverance,stamina and the indomitable spirit that are indispensible to all the great entrepreneurs.Even if they fail,they are not down;they keep exploring for new business opportunities and work tirelessly until they succeed.As people of vision,of individual initiative,of leadership,and of creativity and innovation,they represent the future and the hope of a nation.那些自己进行创业的大学生可被视为先驱,在他们之中,将会诞生中国未来的商界领袖。尽管面对着许多未知的挑战,他们仍无所畏惧地踏上一条充斥着艰难险阻的征程。与此形成对比的是,他们的大多数同龄人却作为白领,在高端写字楼里上班,拿着稳定的薪水。但是,创业的学生才是其命运真正的主人。由于接触到更多的不确定性与挫折,他们形成了锲而不舍、坚忍不拔、顽强不屈的精神,所有这些品质都是杰出企业家所不可或缺的。即使他们失败,他们不会垮掉,他们会不断探索,寻找新的商机,不知疲倦地努力,直至成功。作为一个具有远见卓识、个人进取性、领导力、创造力和创新精神的群体,他们代表着一个国家的未来与希望。
Not all college graduates are suitable for undertaking entrepreneurial projects.To launch a business,one needs to have a sound business idea,a viable business plan,the charisma to create a cohesive team where members make concerted efforts for a common objective,effective managerial skills,and above all,the courage to compete against powerful rivals and ultimately to prevail.The essential difference between the students who become civic servants in government organizations or employees at leading domestic or multinational companies and those who create their own businesses is that the former are docile followers whereas the latter are aggressive trailblazers.For this reason,business-launching college graduates are more admirable,and thus they command our deep respect.并非所有的大学毕业生都适合去从事创业项目。要想创业,必须要有一个好的商业点子,一个可行的商业规划,非凡的个人魅力以形成一个有凝聚力的团队,使团队成员们步调一致地去奋力实现共同的目标,以及有效的管理才华;尤其是,需要有敢于与最强劲对手展开竞争、并最终取得胜利的勇气。那些成为政府机构里的公务员的学生,或者那些成为本土大企业或跨国公司的雇员的学生,与那些自己进行创业的学生相比,最本质的差别在于,前者是温顺的追随者,而后者则是奋发进取的探路者。正是基于这一原因,创业的大学毕业生们更令人钦佩,也因而赢得了我们深深的敬意。
患难见真情 A Friend in Need Is a Friend Indeed Several years ago, I lost my brother in a terrible accident.My brother, who was a lovely and handsome boy, but an accident cruelly snatched his young life.He should have possessed a bright future and colorful life.I was so sad and my spirit was in collapse at that time.I don’t know how to express my feeling or what should I do.I could not believe this truth would have happened to me.I tried to hide my feeling in my bottom heart in order to prevent others seeing my sadness.几年前,在一次可怕的事故中我失去了我的弟弟。我的弟弟是一个可爱、帅气的男孩,但事故残酷地剥夺了他年轻的生命。他应该拥有一个光明的未来和丰富多彩的生活。那时我很伤心,精神都要崩溃了。我不知道怎样来表达我的感觉或者我该怎么办。我不能相信这样的事会真的会发生在我身上。为了不让别人看见我的悲伤,我试图隐藏我内心的感觉。
After knowing the bad news, my friend, Li Hang, came to my house and stayed with me.He tried his best to make me happy and forgot the terrible thing.I still remember what he said, no matter what happened, I will stay with you all the time.I was deeply moved.He persuaded me to go out to walk with him.Sometimes, he just walked quietly beside me.In addition, he lent his favorite book to me when I am alone at my house.A couple days later, I felt better than before.Without his company, I couldn't go out from the sadness and shadow.Being alone, I was not willing to tell anyone about my feeling.I do really appreciate that what he did for me.得知这个坏消息后,我的朋友李航来到我家,陪着我。他尽力他自己最大的努力来使我快乐,忘记那件可怕的事。我仍然记得他说了什么,无论发生什么事,我一直都会和你在一起的。我被深深地感动了。他说服我跟他出去走走。有时候,他只是静静地走在我身旁。而且,当我一个人在家的时候,他把他最喜欢的书借给我。几天之后,我感觉比以前好多了。没有他的陪伴,我无法走出悲伤的阴影。一个人的时候,我是不愿意告诉别人我的感受的。我真的很感激他为我所做的事。
As the proverb says “A friend in need is a friend in deed”, if two person are really good friends, no matter what happens, they should help each other.They should stand side by side and go out from hard times together.正如谚语所说的患难见真情“,如果两个人真的是很好的朋友,不管发生什么事,他们都应该互相帮助。他们应该肩并肩,一起走出艰难时期。
城市生活 City Life Depending on personal experience, personality type and emotional concern, we find that some people hold the idea of living in the country, while others prefer living in the city.In my opinion, I prefer the city life, though it has advantages and disadvantages.根据个人经历,个性与情感关注的不同,我们发现有人持在乡村生活的想法,而另一些人则更喜欢住在城市。在我看来,我更喜欢城市生活,虽然它有优点也有缺点。
First of all, city life is very colorful.City is the center of the surrounding area.So, it is also the most booming place having the best things.There are many great things and wonderful activities in the city, while there isn’t in the country.For example, there are KFC, wonderful shopping mall, delicious food from various places, dancing club, different kinds of activities and so on.We can also learn the culture from all the countries.Despite city life is so wonderful, it still has many disadvantages.Nowadays, with the improvement of people’s living standard, people have more cars and more people come to city, and then the city becomes more and more crowd.As a result, traffic jam emerges, which makes great inconvenience for people to go out.What’s worse, the air pollution becomes serious day by day, which is bad for people’s health.首先,城市生活是多姿多彩的。城市周边地区的中心。因此,它也是最繁荣的地方拥有最好的东西。城市有很多好东西和精彩的活动,而在乡村里则是没有的。例如,城市里有肯德基,美妙的购物商场,来自不同地方的美味食物,舞蹈俱乐部,各种各样的活动等。我们也可以了解到各个乡村的文化。尽管城市的生活是如此美妙,它仍有许多缺点。如今,随着人们生活水平的提高,私家车越来越多,也有越来越多的人涌向城市,城市就变得越来越拥挤了。结果出现了交通拥堵,给人们外出带来了极大的不便。更糟糕的是,空气污染日益严重,这对人们的健康是有害的。
To sum up, every coin has two sides.Living in the city also has good side and bad aspect.Whether like living in city or not depends on individual thinking.As myself, I like living in city though I know the disadvantage of living in city.总之,每个硬币都有两面。生活在城市中有好的一面也有不好的一面。是否住在城市主要是看个人想法。像我这样,虽然知道生活在城市的缺点,但我还是喜欢生活在城市。

防止全球变暖To Prevent Global Warming Many people believe that human activity is causing the earth’s temperature to rise.They say that this global warming will have dreadful consequences for our environment, such as drought and flooding.很多人都认为是人类活动导致了全球气温上升。他们说全球变暖会对我们的环境造成可怕的后果,如干旱和洪水。
What should governments do to help prevent global warming? Give reasons for your suggestions.政府该做什么来防止全球变暖呢?给出你建议的原因。
The earth’s temperature is rapidly changing.As a result there has been a lot of climate change such as heat waves, droughts and floods.Scientists believe that this is the result of human activity, which is polluting the Earth’s atmosphere.This could become a disaster if governments do not act to help prevent global warming.They can act in three ways;by supporting research, by making laws and by keeping the general public informed.地球的温度正在迅速改变。导致很多气候变迁,如热浪、干旱和洪水。科学家认为这是人类活动污染了地球的大气层的结果。如果政府不采取行动来防止全球变暖的话,这可能会成为灾难。他们可以在三个方面上有所行动;支持研究,制订法律和保持公众知情。
Firstly, governments can support research.For example, they should encourage companies to develop vehicles that cause less pollution.They should also support alternative sources of electricity from wind and water rather than from oil and coal.As well, they should sponsor conferences to discuss the effects of greenhouse gas emissions and possible solutions to the problem.首先,政府可以支持研究。例如,他们应该鼓励公司致力于汽车研发来减少污染。他们也应该支持来自风和水的电力替代能源,而不是来自石油和煤的电源。同时,他们应该主持会议来讨论温室气体排放的影响和可能解决问题的方案。
Secondly, they should make laws that limit the amount of greenhouse gases that companies can emit.Private companies should be rewarded for following these laws.They should also be punished for creating pollution.其次,他们应该制定法律限制公司发出的温室气体。私人公司应该因为遵循这些法律而得到奖励。他们也应该因为创造出污染而受到惩罚。
Finally, everybody is affected by global warming.Therefore, it is important that governments involve individuals in the problem solving process.For example they should encourage households to save as much energy as possible by using more efficient light bulbs or less hot water.They should also encourage the public to recycle, and this should be compulsory for everyone.Another way of saving energy is by public transport systems.Governments should spend money on public transport to make it as easy as possible for the public to save energy.最后,每个人都是受到全球变暖的影响。因此,政府和个人在解决问题的过程中是很重要的。例如,他们应该鼓励家庭尽可能多的节省能源,尽可能多的使用更高效的灯泡或少用热水。他们也应该鼓励公众回收,因为这对每个人来说都是必须的。另一种节约能源的方法是公共交通系统。政府应该把钱花在公共交通使公众尽可能容易的节约能源。
In summary, it is clear that there are a lot of things that governments can do to prevent global warming.They should involve companies, support scientists and encourage individuals to protect the planet.总之,很明确的,各国政府可以做很多事情来防止全球变暖。他们应包括公司,支持科学家和鼓励个人保护地球。
彩票弊大于利 The Lottery Does More Harm than Good Lottery, reflecting people's dream of being rich overnight,is always a controversial subject.Admittedly, it has made so great profits which our society may benefit from, but such profits could never compensate for the loss it costs.彩票,反映了人们想一夜暴富的梦想。这一直是一个有争议的话题。诚然,我们的社会可能会从彩票产生了的大利润中受益,但这样的利润无法弥补带来损失。
People may be surprised at the amazing development of lottery when they thoroughly look into it.Is it a kind of capital in vestment or is there any deeper reason hidden behind? Those who buy lottery tickets may have different backgrounds while they share the same goal, hoping that the free pie will fall some day as long as they keep throwing the money in.Such attitude may gradually influence their personality and eventually form an opportunistic mentality.当人们对彩票进行彻底的调查时,他们也许会对彩票的惊人发展感到惊讶。难道它是一种资本投资或背后隐藏着更深层次的原因?那些买彩票的人有着不同的背景,相同的目标,都希望坚持投钱进去总有一天会有免费的馅饼掉下来的。这样的态度可能会逐渐影响他们的人格,最终形成一个机会主义心态。
Besides, even if you are the lucky guy,you won't be so happy as you've once expected.People around you may be green with envy;some may even hate you for your gaining the treasure effortlessly.此外,即使你是幸运的家伙,你不会像你曾经预期的那么开心。你周围的人可能会十分妒忌;有些甚至恨你可以毫不费力的获得财富。
It is commonly accepted that whether to buy lottery tickets or not is just a personal affair.Actually, it isn't.We know that the real value of the tickets, we buy is no more than several pieces of paper.According to the economics pattern, too fast circulation of currency may bring down the value of the money,especially when it is spent without any material production.The result is that our domestic financial condition will be out of control.人们普遍认为买不买彩票只是个人的事情。实际上,并不是。我们懂得彩票的真正价值,我们买的只不过是几张纸。根据经济格局,货币流通过快可以降低货币的价值,特别是当它没有产生任何的物质时。结果就是我们国内的财务状况将会失去控制。
Lottery may help us gather the wealth of the whole society,but not in the proper way;it may donate a lot to the charities,but just a small part of what has gained.Hence, it is the thing we can make use of, but not be crazy of.彩票也许可以帮助我们聚集整个社会的财富,但却是不正确的方式;可能捐了很多给慈善机构,但也只是占所得到的一小部分而已。因此,彩票只是我们可以利用的东西,但不是该痴迷的东西。

大学生就业问题之我见 My View on Employment Problems of College
Students Nowadays, the difficulty of college students for employment has been brought to the attention of the public.Not only the students themselves worry about it but also the government concerns about.There are some researches show that both the employee and employer should take the responsibility.如今,大学生就业难已经引起了公众的注意。不仅学生自己担心政府也担忧。有研究表明,出现这个问题员工和雇主都应承担责任。
First of all, college students do not master the knowledge their major require.Some students regard the school as a place for enjoyment.Their aim at college is to get the diploma instead of learning something.They often play computer games or sleep in the dormitory or go out to play with friends.As a result, they learn little from college.So they can’t qualify the job they applying for, which makes the employment difficult.On the other side, many employers always want the students are full of experience so that they can make contribution to the company right away.In other words, they regard experience more important that knowledge.At the end, they always think that the graduates are not good enough to satisfy their requirement.首先,大学生没有掌握好专业所要求的知识。有些学生把学校作为享乐的地方。他们去上学的目标是得到毕业证而不是学到知识。他们经常在宿舍玩电脑游戏或睡觉或和朋友出去玩。结果他们从大学里什么都没学到。所以他们无法胜任所申请的工作,使得就业越来越难。另一方面,许多雇主都希望学生有充分的经验能立刻为公司做贡献。换句话说,他们把经验看得比知识更重要。所以他们总是认为毕业生不足以满足他们的要求。
In summary, as the problem between both the employee and employer makes employment become more and more difficult.If students can realize their responsibility in university and try their best to learn knowledge, and the job finder can put more patience and value students’ potential ability, the problem will be solved sooner or later.总之,由于雇主和员工之间的问题让就业变得越来越困难。如果学生能意识到自己在大学的责任并努力学习知识,而招聘者可以更加的耐心并看重学生的潜在能力,这个问题迟早会解决的。
自荐信 Self-recommendation Dear Manager, 尊敬的经理: Thanks for reading my resume.My name is Daniel, an undergraduate from Hunan Normal University.I apply for the position that you offer in your company's website.My major is Chemistry.I chose it as my major because I think chemistry plays an important part in our daily life.Once I was a little boy, I liked using my head.I always keep this good habit wherever I go.Thus I always can think some effective ways to handle the difficult problems.感谢你能查阅我的简历。我叫丹尼尔,毕业于湖南师范大学。我申请的这个职位是在你提供的公司网站上看到的。我的专业是化学。我选择了它作为我的专业是因为我觉得化学在我们的日常生活中扮演着一个重要的角色。在我还是个小男孩的时候,我喜欢动脑筋。无论我走到哪里,我一直都保持这个良好习惯。因此,我总是想出处理难题的有效方法。
I studied hard at school, so I got the bachelor’s degree.During four years learning in university, I have not only learned a lot of useful knowledge, but also improved my comprehensive abilities.What’s more, I go in for English so much and work very hard on it.Because of my diligence, I have already passed CET-6.By the way, I also learned some computer skills in my free time, making me an expert on computer.在学校我很努力学习,所以我获得了学士学位。在四年的大学学习中,我不仅学到了许多有用的知识,同时也提高了我的综合能力。更重要的是,我非常喜欢英语,也很努力学它。由于我的勤奋,我已经通过了大学英语六级考试。顺便说一下,在我空闲的时间里我也学到了一些电脑技术,使我成为电脑专家。

Sincerely yours, Daniel 丹尼尔
大学教育的目标The Goal of University Education Nowadays most people go to university not only to learn new knowledge but to get a degree.Many of them no longer care about what they really learn in university, they care more about whether they will get the degree or not.They regard the degree as a golden key to a better jobs or higher salaries.For them, nothing is more important than a degree in university.In my point of view, I cannot agree to this idea.现在大多数人上大学不是为了学习新的知识,而是为了要得到学位。大多人都不再关心他们在大学真正学到什么,他们关心的是是否能得到学位。他们把学位作为找到更好工作或获得更高薪水的金钥匙。对他们来说,没有什么比大学学位更重要。在我看来,我不同意这个观点。
In the first place, degree is nothing but a paper that can prove you have finished your courses.Most students don’t realize what helps them to find a good job is what they really learn from university, the professional course, and the social skills and so on.In addition, having certificates is more important than having a degree.For instance, if you are looking for a translation job, you certainly need a CET-4 or CET-6 certificate.if you want to be a high school teacher, you need more certificate to prove yourself that you are fit for this job, such as TEM-8 and teacher certificate which is not a degree can show your abilities.首先,学历只不过是一张证明你已经完成学业的纸而已。大多数学生并没意识到真正能帮助他们找到一份好工作的是他们在大学里真正学到的东西,比如专业课,社会技能等。此外,证书比学位证书更重要。例如,如果您正在寻找一份翻译的工作,你一定需要一个大学英语四或六级的证书。如果你想成为一名中学教师,你需要更多的证书来证明你自己适合这份工作,如英语专业八级证书和教师资格证书,这虽然不是学位却能显示你的能力。
In the second place, having a good personal relationship is much nicer than having a degree.In the social net, you have more friends means you have more choices.For example, many students do not choose the right major in university because their parents chose for them, so that they may not work hard.In that case, this kind of students should spend more time to learn what they are really interested in and make more friends.It’s much better than they spend the whole time to learn the major which they don’t like at all.第二,有一个良好的人际关系比拥有学位要好得多。在社交网站上,你拥有更多的朋友意味着你有更多的选择。例如,许多学生没有选择恰当的大学主要是因为他们的父母为他们做了选择,以至于他们可能不努力学习。在这种情况下,这类学生应该花更多的时间去学习自己真正感兴趣的东西,交更多的朋友。这样比他们把全部时间花在他们不感兴趣的专业上要好得多。
To sum up, students should not care too much about their degree, and they should focus on what is truly needed for their future life.The goal of university education is not just to get a degree, but the really useful knowledge and practical experience.总之,学生不应该太在意他们的学历,他们应该关注他们未来生活真正需要的是什么。大学教育的目标不仅仅是获得一个学位,而是真正实用的知识和实践经验。
关于大学生就业困难 On the Toughness for Graduates to Find a Job It has always been a major concern for people that college students have difficulty in finding ideal jobs they want.Some people say that students lack of social experience and most companies are reluctant to hire graduates without practical experience.Others hold that almost all graduates think that they deserve a higher salary than their ability.From my point of view, I think students should pay attention to enrich their social experience by doing some fundamental work rather than just expecting a high salary.大学生找到理想的工作难一直都是一个主要问题。有人说学生缺乏社会经验而大多数的公司都不愿意雇佣没有实际经验的毕业生。其他人则认为,几乎所有的大学生都认为他们应该得到比他们能力更高的薪水。从我的角度来看,我认为学生应该注意通过做一些基层的工作来丰富自己的社会经验而不是期望得到高薪水。First, most students are unwilling to do the most fundamental job at the very beginning.Lacking of experience is a rather significant reality for graduates.However, most graduates think that the fundamental job neither can bring them money nor benefit, so they won’t choose to do it.As a result of this, most students just miss the chance of being a potential figure in a certain field.首先,大部分的学生在一开始的时候都不愿意做最基层的工作。毕业生缺乏经验是一个很现实的问题。然而,大多数毕业生认为基层工作既没有钱也无法给他们带来利益,所以他们不愿意做这样的工作。因此,大多数学生错过了成为某一领域人才的机会。
Second, most companies are too strict to the graduates.For example, some companies think that students without practical experience won’t conform to their position need, so they refuse the graduates at the first time.There are some companies make severe requirements for students, such as certain height, just male or female, graduate from national famous university, get certain certificate and so on.It is strange that these companies should have these conditions for students.Anyone could be a genius in a certain area, so it may be true that these companies may miss some talents.第二,大多数公司对毕业生要求太严格了。例如,一些公司认为没有实践经验的大学生不符合他们的岗位的要求,所以他们在一开始的时候就把他们拒绝了。还有一些企业为学生制定了苛刻的要求,如一定的身高,性别,是否毕业于国内名牌大学,获得一定的证书等。奇怪的是,这些公司要求学生具备这些条件。在某一领域每个人都可以成为天才,所以这些公司可能会错过一些人才也可能是真的。
Third, China is a country with a huge population, which leads to a rather fierce competition among students.However, limited job requirement and a great numbers of students flocking into job market at almost the same time will increase the unemployment rate of students.第三,中国是一个人口大国,导致学生之间竞争激烈。然而,有限的工作需求以及大量的学生几乎在同一时间涌入就业市场将会增加学生的失业率。
In conclusion, not only the students themselves have limited ability to get a better paid job, but also, the social environment aggravates the difficulty of finding an ideal job.As a result, graduates should not only focus on improve their capacity of handling things but also learn to adjust their vision to find new chance to lead a better life.总之,不仅学生本身能力有限去获取一份较好的工作,而且社会环境加剧了找到理想工作的困难程度。因此,毕业生不仅要注重提高自己的办事能力也要学会调整自己的势力范围寻找新的机会过更好的生活。
手机 Mobile Phone Nowadays, mobile phone is so popular that has become a necessity in daily life.A mobile phone is not only a tool for communication, but also a symbol of fashion.如今,手机是如此的流行以至于成为人们日常生活中的必需品。手机不仅仅是沟通的工具,也是一种时尚的象征。
A mobile phone has so many functions that makes our life convenient and joyous.For one thing, it's easy to carry, so we can make phone calls and send messages whenever and wherever possible.For another, it can be used as a computer as well.We can surf on the internet and get some latest news through mobile phones.What's more, some mobile phones also contain the functions of digital cameras and digital players, so that we can enjoy ourselves in our spare time.手机有很多功能,能使我们的生活方便、快乐。一方面,手机很容易携带,所以我们可以随时随地打电话或发短信。另一方面,它也可以当做电脑来用。我们可以通过手机上网,获得一些新的消息。更重要的是,有些手机还包括数码相机和数码播放器的功能,使我们能在空闲的时候好好享受。
However, every coin has two sides.There are also some disadvantages of mobile phones.On one hand, as most students have their mobile phones, they always concentrate on their mobile phones, but pay little attention to their study, which is not a good phenomenon.On the other hand, if our mobile phones ring when we focus on one thing, we may feel irritated.Moreover, many people always lose their mobile phones, because bad guys are everywhere.A mobile phone costs a lot of money.When we lose our mobile phones, we may feel so upset.然而,每个硬币都有两面。手机也有一些缺点。一方面,大多数学生都有自己的手机,他们总是专注于他们的手机,但不注意学习,这是很不好的现象。另一方面,在我们集中精神于一件事的时候如果我们的手机响时,我们可能会感到恼怒。此外,因为坏人无处不在,很多人都丢失了自己的手机。买一个手机需要花费很多钱。当我们丢失手机的时候,我们会感到如此的不安。
While the way I see it, a mobile phone is only a mobile phone, a tool for communication.We needn't to buy a very luxurious mobile phone.Holding a mobile phone, the following points we should pay attention to.Firstly, we should use them properly.Secondly, we shouldn't compare our mobile phones with others'.Furthermore, we must take care of our mobile phones when we are outside.而我看到它的方式则是,手机是一个移动电话,是通讯工具。我们不需要买一个很豪华的手机。拿着手机,我们应该注意下面的几点。首先,我们应该正确地使用手机。其次,我们不应该把自己的移动电话与他人相攀比。再者,在外面的时候我们必须看好手机。
学校应开展性教育 Sex Education Should Be Taught in School Sex education should be taught in schools, for too many students do not know clearly about it.When children get physically mature, they may want to have sex, while they may not know how to protect themselves as well.Especially for girls, they may get more hurt than boys.在学校里应该开展性教育,因为太多的学生并不清楚地了解它。当孩子们身体发育成熟,他们可能会想做爱,但是他们也许可能不知道如何保护好自己。特别是女孩子,她们受到的伤害可能会比男孩更多。
Teens need to be given guidelines to help them protect themselves.The US has more than a million teenagers being pregnant each year.Teenagers have the highest rate of sexual transmitted diseases.Of any age group, one in four young people contract an STD by the age of 21, and the number of HIV infection increases rapidly among young people.In addition, if teenagers have an unprotected sex, they may have a chance to have a baby, and base on their young age, less experience, and no income, the young father and mother have no choice but to abort the child.Those innocent babies who deserve to born to the world and live under the sun are killed by their ignorant parents.青少年需要获得指导来帮助他们保护自己。美国每年有超过一百万的青少年怀孕。青少年感染性传播疾病的可能性最大。在任何年龄段中,四个21岁的年轻人中就有一个染上性病而且艾滋病病毒在年轻人当中感染速度在迅速增加。此外,如果青少年有不安全的性行为,他们可能有机会怀上孩子,而且由于他们年龄太小了,经验少,没有收入,年轻的父母没有别的选择只能选择不要那个孩子。那些应该来到这个世上、在阳光下生活的无辜的婴儿却死于他们父母的无知中。So, sex education must be taught in school.Besides, Chinese parents are always shamed of telling their children about sex.From the discussion above and think more deeply, I think the question is not whether sex education should be taught in school or not, but how it should be taught, protecting teenagers from getting hurt.所以,学校必须开展性教育。此外,中国的父母总是羞于告诉孩子们关于性的问题。从上面的讨论并进行更深入的思考,我认为问题不在于是否该在学校开展性教育,而是该如何教,从而保护青少年免受伤害。
一个好邻居应有的素质Good Qualitiess of a Neighbor Not all people have the same opinion about a good neighbor.In my opinion, a good neighbor should be helpful and reliable as they live near us.并不是所有的人对于一个好邻居的要求的想法是一样的。在我看来,一个好邻居应该是愿意帮忙的、可靠的,因为他们就住在我们身边。
First of all, no one can do all the things by himself or herself.So help is necessary for everyone.That’s why I want a helpful neighbor.For example, when I was in high school, one day I was so concentrated on my homework that I forgot to have my lunch.When realizing, it was time to go to dormitory.I was hungry, but I couldn't go to the canteen, as the school rule doesn't allow.At that moment, my roommate was back to the dormitory and said to me, “I know you don't have lunch, so after I finish mine I ordered one for you.” I was deeply grateful.首先,没有人可以独自做好做所有的事情。所以对每个人来说帮助是很有必要的。这就是为什么我想要一个愿意帮忙的邻居。例如,我在高中的时候,有一天我过于专注于写作业,我忘记了吃午餐。当我想起来的时候已经是午睡的时间了。我很饿,但我又不能去食堂,因为学校不允许。在那时,我的室友回到宿舍,对我说,“我知道你没有吃午饭,所以我吃完之后帮你打了一份,”我非常的感激。”。Moreover, the most important thing for a good neighbor is never spread personal things.My best friend in the middle school is that kind of person.Being my best friend, she knew almost all of my secrets.Happily, she didn't tell anyone.I told her that I put some glue on our chemistry teacher's chair by accidence making him embarrassed.I dared not tell him the truth.Apparently, she didn't tell anyone, because the teacher still tried to find out who did it after a long time.此外,对于一个好邻居的最重要的事情是不会传播的私密。我在初中时最好的朋友就是那种人。作为我最好的朋友,她知道几乎我所有的秘密。令人高兴的是,她没有告诉任何人。我告诉她,我不小心涂了一些胶水在我们化学老师的椅子上,这让老师感到很难堪。但是我不敢告诉他真相。显然,她没有告诉任何人,因为很长一段时间后老师仍在试图找出是谁干的。
Back to my view, nobody is perfect, but to be a good neighbor, those qualities are necessary.回到我的观点,没有人是完美的,但是一个好的邻居,那些素质是必须的。
多媒体技术与教育 Multimedia Technology and Education Nowadays, multimedia teaching devices have been brought into public concern and the heating debates are right on their way.Some people hold that multimedia technology is necessary and significant to students’ learning while others hold opposite views.From my point of the view, I am in favor of the former and I consider that multimedia technology has a great contribution to teaching as well as its use is a great progress in education.如今,多媒体教学技术已经引起了公众的关注而激烈的争论也即将到来。有些人认为对于学生学习来说多媒体技术是必要的,重要的,而有些人则持相反的观点。从我的角度来看,我赞成前者,我认为多媒体技术为教学做出了很大的贡献,它的使用也是教育界的一大进步。
There are reasons accounting for my view.First, multimedia technology provides more ways and wider resources for students’ learning.Compared with the traditional teaching model, multimedia technology allows teachers to use more flexible and various ways to spread knowledge.Second, based on the first reason, multimedia technology will rise students’ interest and make them more concentrated on their class because it allows teachers to use not only words but also pictures and sound to present their courses.Therefore, with the help of multimedia technology, our learning will be more effective and efficient.理由有几点。首先,多媒体技术为学生的学习提供了更方便的方式和更广泛的资源。与传统的教学模式相比,多媒体技术允许教师采用更灵活的各种方式来传授知识。第二,基于第一个原因,多媒体技术会提高学生的学习兴趣,使他们更集中精神于课堂上,因为它不仅允许教师使用文字而且还有图片和声音来上课。因此,有了多媒体技术的帮助,我们的学习会更为有效和高效。
I am also agree with some people’s view that the technology often distract students’ attention from real learning sometimes, but I think its advantages far weight than its disadvantages.我也同意一些人认为有时多媒体技术往往会分散学生在真正学习上的注意力的观点,但我觉得它的优点远大于缺点。
In short, I consider that multimedia technology has a great contribution to teaching.Therefore, I advocate that all schools should try to use it in teaching and introduce more advanced technologies to improve our education.总之,我认为,多媒体技术对教学做出了很大的贡献。因此,我主张所有的学校都应该在教学中尝试使用它,并引入更先进的技术来提高我们的教育水平。
生活的真谛 True Meaning of Life We have to face our daily life, so why don't we spend every day happily.In fact, life is colorful.我们必须得面对我们的日常生活,那么我们为什么不开心地度过每一天。其实,生活是丰富多彩的。Life is an endless road.There's no stop sign on this road, but sometimes we should stop to have a rest and appreciate the beautiful scenery beside the road.Life is a box of chocolate.You wouldn't know what you're going to get.Life is a lemon.Although it tastes sour and even bitter at the beginning, you will also taste the sweetness inside if you don't give up.Life is treasure.We're always wealthy when we're alive, because we can make everything we need and everything we want when we're living in the world.Life is a special gift.Don't save anything to a special occasion, since every day you're living is a special occasion for you.人生是一条没有尽头的路。在这条路没有停止的迹象,但有时,我们应该停下来休息一下来欣赏路边美丽的风景。生活就像一盒巧克力。你不知道你将会得到什么。生活就像是一个柠檬。虽然一开始的时候它尝起来是酸的甚至是苦的,但是如果你不放弃你也会尝到里面的甜头。生命就像宝藏。活着的时候我们总是很富有,因为在我们活在这个世界上时我们可以得到我们需要的和我们想要的所有东西。生活是一个特殊的礼物。不为特殊时刻存储任何东西,因为你活着的每一天都是对你来说都是特殊时刻。
However, life isn't always so peaceful and quiet.Life is a story, which is full of turns and twists, but we will find it marvelous after we overcome all the difficulties.Life is a sea, which is full of adventures, but surfing when the wind blows will make us stronger and stronger.Life is an Iceland, which is so slippery, but skating on this land is a good way to test our abilities.Life is a sword, which has its chances and challenges, but we can benefit a lot from life if we make good use of it.然而,生活并不总是那么平和安静。生活是一个充满曲折的故事,但我们会发现它是那么的不可思议在我们克服一切困难后。生活是大海,充满着冒险,但当风吹起的时候去冲浪会让我们变得更坚强。生命是一个冰岛,它很滑,但在这片土地上滑冰是检验我们的能力的一种好方式。生活是一把剑,它有机遇和挑战,但如果我们可以好好利用它,将会从生活中获益匪浅。
关于成功的建议 Some Advices about Success I have some good advice for your work.If you can do the following things, you will succeed in doing everything.我对你的工作有一些好的建议。如果你能做到以下的几点,你做什么事情都会成功。
Firstly, whatever you do, you must be punctual and hard-working.If you sow a good seed, you will get a good harvest.If the seed is in poor quality, the harvest will also be very bad.And if you sow nothing, you will get nothing at all.Nothing.首先,无论你做什么,你必须要守时和勤奋。如果你种下良好的种子,你会有一个好的收获。如果种子的质量不好,收获也将会是不乐观的。如果你没有耕耘,你将什么都得不到。什么都没有。
Secondly, you must be honest.As honesty is the moral tuition that everyone should have.If you treat other people friendly and sincerely, others will also respect you.其次,你必须诚实。因为诚信是每个人都应该有的道德教育。如果你对其他人友好、真诚,别人也会尊重你。
Thirdly, you must be tolerant to others, since no one is perfect in the world.Everyone has his own faults, but if you can see everything on other person's perspective, there will be no problem at all.第三,你必须对别人宽容,因为在这个世界上没有人是完美的。每个人都有他自己的缺点,但如果你能换位思考,什么问题都不会有。
What's more, when you are in a big company, you should not only respect the leaders, but also get on well with the colleagues.Sometimes, you should try to please your boss, so that you could have more chances to be promoted.更重要的是,当你在一家大公司里面时,你不仅要尊重领导,也要与同事相处好。有时,你应该取悦你的老板,这样你就可以有更多晋升的机会。
Last but not the least, don't ignore the little things, because such a little thing will have a great effect on your life.So you should start yourselves at the bottom, in order to get enough working experience.As you have enough working experience, nothing you will be afraid.最后但并非最不重要的,不可忽视小事,因为这样的小事对你的生活也会有很大的影响。所以为了获得足够的工作经验,你应该从基层做起。当你有足够的工作经验时,你就什么都不会害怕了。
独自旅行 Travel Alone I think there is no one would say “no” to travel.People love travel, for it can make them relax and widen their vision.Some people like to travel with friends, because they want to share the pleasure of traveling, and they think the journey will be much easier for they can take care of each other.While some people like to travel alone, they can go anywhere in anytime.They don’t have to care about what the partner’s idea.In my opinion, I’m much preferred to travel with friends, but I always have an urge to travel alone.我想没有人会对旅行说“不”。人们喜欢旅游,因为旅游可以使他们放松并开阔视野。有些人喜欢和朋友一起旅行,因为他们想要分享旅游的乐趣,他们认为旅行会变得更容易,在旅程中将他们可以互相照顾。有些人喜欢独自旅行,他们可以在任何时候去任何地方。他们不必在乎对方的想法。在我看来,我更喜欢和朋友一起旅行,但我总是有一种冲动想独自旅行。
Firstly, I was told that travel alone can help people to grow up quickly, and that’s what I really need.If you travel alone, you have to do everything by yourself in the journey, for instance, to buy a ticket, to book hotel, and ask directions.That maybe just a small case for extrovert, but for introvert, like me, it’s really a big challenge.I remember the first time I go to travel with friends and my little brother, they did everything, and I just follow and had fun.I even too shame to check into a hotel, and my little brother did it for me.I was humiliated for that.So, travel alone could force introvert to do the things that you don’t dare to do.It could help you to build an outgoing personality.For extrovert, travel alone could enhance your ability to handle emergence case.首先,有人告诉我独自旅行能帮助人们迅速长大,这才是我真正需要的。如果你独自一人旅行,你必须在旅途中,自己做所有的事情,比如,买机票,预订酒店,问路。这些对于外向的人也许只是小事,但对于性格内向的人,像我,就是一个非常大的挑战。我记得我第一次与朋友和我的小弟弟去旅行的时候,他们把所有的事情都做好,而我只是跟着并寻找乐趣。我甚至太害羞而不敢到酒店登记,结果是我的弟弟为我登记的。对于这一点我感到很羞愧。所以,独自旅行能强迫内向的人做你不敢做的事情。它可以帮助你形成外向的性格。对于外向的人,独自旅行能提高你处理紧急情况的能力。
Secondly, travel alone gives you peace of mind.Image that, you walking alone in the beach, there are no sounds of human beings, just burst of sound waves.You close your eyes, enjoy the moment, you will feel peace.其次,独自旅行可以让你心情平静。想象一下你一个人独自走在沙滩上,那儿没有人类的声音,只有浪花的声音。闭上眼睛,享受这一刻,你会感觉到平静。
In short, travel alone could be loneliness and dangerous, especially for girls, but it’s worth having a try for the beautiful scene in the journey, it seems like all the things are just exist for you.总之,独自旅行可能会有孤独和危险,特别是对女孩子,但为了旅途中美丽的景色是值得一试的,似乎所有的事物都只为你而存在。
改善人际关系 How to Improve Human Relations in Business?
What are the most important personal traits linking to success in business? Recent research indicates that human relations are very important in business.“Integrity” and “ability to get along with others” are by far the most important success-related characteristics while “inability to understand others” and “inability to work with others” two most common failings.Luckily, human relations skills can be learned, and practice helps to improve performance.人最重要的个性与商业上的成功有什么关系?最近的研究表明,人与人之间的关系对商业是很重要的。“诚信”和“与人相处的能力”是迄今为止成功最重要的相关特点,而“无法理解他人”和“不能与他人相处”是两个最常见的弱点。幸运的是,人际关系的技能是可以学习的而练习则是有助于提高行为表现。
One skill that is helpful in working with people is being able to observe accurately.Most of time, we see events around us from a very personal viewpoint.Our observations are usually laced with assumptions and inferences that distort our ability to see what is happening.Practice in accurate observation helps us to respond more appropriately to the people around us.其中一个技巧是在工与人们相处时能够如实观察。大多数时候,我们是从一个非常个人的观点来看到发生在我们周围的事情。我们看到的通常是参杂着假设和推论的,这会误导我们看到正在发生的事情。练习准确的观测有助于我们更适当的回应我们周围的人。
The second skill is listening.Listening to other is the most important skill we can learn.We can learn to hear what the other people are saying without defensiveness or judgmental attitudes.We can learn ways to respond, so that other person knows that we have heard what he or she was trying to say.第二个技巧是聆听。我们可以学到的最重要的技巧是倾听他人。我们可以听到其他人没有防御或判断性态度的说法。我们可以学习如何回应,这样其他人就可以知道我们听到他或她想说的是什么。
The third area for learning in human relations is assertiveness: expressing our needs, feelings and ideas clearly, but without stifling others or putting them down.Many interpersonal problems arise from our inability to say what is on our minds in a proper way that people can accept.在学习人际关系中的第三个点是过于自信:明确地表达我们的需要,情感和思想,但不用扼杀他人的想法或看低他们。许多人际问题产生的原因在于我们无法用一个大家可以接受的正确方式来表达我们的想法。
The fourth area related to our ability is to recognize the culturally conditioned values of people we work with, and to be able to take them into account.Especially when these values clash with our own, we need to be sensible to the implications of this conflict for our work.第四个与我们的能力相关的领域是承认和我们相处的人的文化制约价值观,并能够为他们着想。特别是当这些价值观与我们自己的有冲突的时候,我们要理智地对待这个工作上的冲突。
大学生兼职 Doing a Part-time Job in College Most college students tend to do a part-time job, because they want to make their college life colorful and interesting.大多数大学生都想做兼职,因为他们想让自己的大学生活更加的丰富多彩。
Doing a part-time job brings them so many benefits.For one thing, college students can earn pocket money by doing part-time jobs, so that they needn't ask money from their parents any more.For another, the part-time jobs can help them get more working experience.做兼职可以给他们带来了很多好处。一方面,大学生可以通过做兼职工作挣零用钱,这样他们就不用再向从他们的父母要钱了。另一方面,兼职可以帮助他们获得更多的工作经验。
Nowadays, the working experience is an important thing in job hunting, for most companies prefer to hire someone who is experienced.What's more, through the part-time jobs, they can make more friends and know the society better.如今,在找工作的时候工作经验是很重要的,因为大多数公司更喜欢雇用有经验的人。更重要的是,通过兼职,他们能结交到更多的朋友,更好地了解社会。
Nevertheless, it's not absolutely right for college students to do the part-time jobs.Since most of them are always busy with their part-time jobs at night, so that they may not have a good rest.Therefore, they can't listen to the teachers carefully and fall asleep in class.I don't think it's wise for them to do so.As college students, study is their major task.If their part-time jobs have a bad effect on their study, they had better give them up and pay more attention to their study instead.然而,大学生做兼职也不是绝对正确的。因为大部分人总是在晚上忙于自己的兼职工作,这样他们就可能休息不好。所以,他们无法认真听课而且还会在课堂上睡觉。我不认为他们这样做是对的。作为大学生,学习是他们的主要任务。如果兼职工作对学习影响不好,他们最好放弃,把更多的注意力放在学习上。
公务员考试热 The Popularity of Civil Service Exam In recent years, there are people in expanding numbers who have participated in the test for civil servants.Millions of students choose civil servant as their most ideal occupation after graduation.According to the authoritative statistic, more than 1.5 million people take the exam, and the most competed position ratio is 9175:1.The craze in civil service exam has attracted widespread attention.In my opinion, people take part in the exam should basis on their personality and dreams, not just drifting with the current.近年来,参加公务员考试的人不断扩大。成千上万的学生选择公务员作为他们毕业后最理想的职业。据权威统计,超过1500000人参加考试,而最具竞争性的职位录取比例为9175: 1.公务员考试的热潮已经引起了广泛关注。在我看来,人们参加考试应该根据对他们的性格和梦想为依据,而不是随波逐流。
First and foremost, one of fundamental causes which accounts for this kind of craze is that most people think civil servant is the iron rice bowl, having less stress in job market.Nowadays, not only fresh graduate faces great employment pressure, but also many high-educated, such as boffin, white-collar, have the same pressure.People who work in companies have to work overtime without paying.Besides, with the stronger ability of young people have, the larger chance they would get, when they become older, they would worry about the increasingly fierce competition of society.But the civil service is different.It is stable, as long as they don't make any big mistakes, they would not be fired.首先,造成这种疯狂行为的其中一个根本原因是,大多数人认为公务员是铁饭碗,在就业市场上具有更少的压力。如今,不仅应届毕业生面临巨大的就业压力,很多高学历,如科学家,白领,也同样有压力。在公司上班要免费加班。此外,由于年轻人的能力越强,他们得到工作的机会更大,当他们慢慢变老了,他们会担心竞争日益激烈的社会。但是,公务员是不同的。它是稳定的,只要他们不犯任何大过错,他们是不会被解雇的。
Moreover, the high social position of civil servants is a crucial factor to attract many people to take part in the exam.In recent years, accompanied with the policy of reform and opening-up, both of national and local civil servants are more respected.In addition, the mind of “A good scholar will make an official” has deeply rooted in people’s hearts.Most people think that civil servants owning power would glorify and illuminate the ancestors.此外,公务员的高社会地位是吸引许多人参加考试的一个关键因素。近年来,由于改革开放的政策,国家和地方公务员都受到了更多的尊重。再者,“学而优则仕”的想法已深深植根于人们的心中。大多数人认为,拥有权力的公务员可以光宗耀祖。
Last but not least, the welfare and salary of civil servants have been improved greatly, which undoubtedly become people’s preferable choices.In some big cities of China, such as Beijing, Shanghai, registered permanent residence is very important.House, school and medical insurance all link together with it.Generally, enterprise will not solve these problems for employees easily.最后但并非最不重要的,公务员的福利和待遇有了很大的提高,这无疑成为人们最好的选择。在中国的一些城市户口是非常重要的,如:北京,上海。房子,学校和医疗保险都和它联系在一起。一般来说,企业将无法轻易棒员工解决这些问题。
第二篇:Maybe...(经典英语散文,附带翻译)
Maybe it is true that we do now know what we have got until we have lost it.it is also true that we do not know what we have been missing until it arrives.
或许这是真的,直到失去后,我们才知道曾经拥有过什么;只有拥有时,我们才知道正在失去着什么。
Giving someone all your love is never an insurance that they will love you back.Do not except love in return,but if it dose not,be content it grew in yours.给一个人你所有的爱并不意味着他(她)一定会爱你,不要期望爱的回报。即使真的没有回报,我们也要感到满足,至少爱已经滋生在我们的心底。
It takes an hour to like someone,and a day to love someone,but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
喜欢上一个人需要一小时,爱上一个人需要一天,但忘记一个人却需要一生的时光。Do not rely on one’ s appearance;it can deceive.Do not rely on wealth, even that fades away.Rely on someone who makes you smile, because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.不要信赖一个人的外表,那是会欺骗人的;不要依赖金钱的力量,那是会褪色的。相信一个能让你微笑的人,因为只需一个微笑,就会使你眼前的阴霾烟消云散。
There are some moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them form you dreams and hug them.生命中总有这样的瞬间,当你十分思念一个人时,你就渴望能在梦中见到他(她),和他(她)拥抱在一起。
Dream what you want to dream;go where you want to go;be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.梦想你所梦想的,去你想去的地方,成为你想成为的人……因为你只有一次生命和一个机会,去做所有你想做的所有事。
May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy.足够的快乐让你变得甜蜜,足够的磨难让你变得坚强,足够的悲哀让你变得人性,足够的希望让你变得快乐。
Always put yourself in others’ shoes.If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person, too.永远为他人着想,如果你感觉到那伤害了你,那也一定伤害了他人。
The happiness of people do not necessarily have the best of everything;they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.Happiness waits for those who cry, those who have been hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.人生之幸,不在于拥有一切,而在于凡事能尽力而为。幸福等待那些哭泣的人、曾被伤害的人、苦苦寻找的人、疲惫不堪的人——唯有他们能够真正珍惜人生路上曾经帮助过他们的人。
The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past.You can not go on well in life until you let your past failures and heartaches go off.人生的美境,在于对过去的忘却。忘却过去的失败和悲伤,你才能继续幸福的生活。
When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling.Live your life so that when you die, you are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.你出生时,你在啼哭,周围的人却为一个新生命的诞生而微笑。终其一生,随风而逝的时候,你在微笑,周围的人却为失去一个生命而哭泣。
PS:
也许大家想象不到这篇文章的来历,这是一张英语试卷上的一篇阅读,前前后后已经做过三次了。
“but it is also true that we do not know what we have been missing until it arrives.” 当某件事到来,我们才会发现,我们正在失去着什么。
这是让我感受最深的一句话。刚开始苦苦思考却无法理解,但老师举了一个例子后,便感触颇深。
当我们真的踏出考场,六月的阳光洒在年轻的脸上,或许才会明白,曾盼望的这一瞬间,我们正在与太多的事情错过。
中文是我自己翻译的,水平太低,把原文的诗意都译没有了。(希望有高手能把它再翻译一次,因为这确实是一篇不错的文)。
题目为自己加。
第三篇:礼记大学翻译及原文
《礼记·大学》在南宋前从未单独刊印,相传为孔子弟子曾参(前505~前434)所作。下面是小编为大家整理的礼记大学翻译及原文,欢迎阅读。
原文
大学之道,在明明德,在亲民,在止于至善。
知止而后有定,定而后能静,静而后能安,安而后能虑,虑而后能得。
物有本末,事有终始,知所先后,则近道矣。
古之欲明明德于天下者,先治其国;欲治其国者,先齐其家;欲齐其家者,先修其身;欲修其身者,先正其心;欲正其心者,先诚其意;欲诚其意者,先致其知,致知在格物。
物格而后知至,知至而后意诚,意诚而后心正,心正而后身修,身修而后家齐,家齐而后国治,国治而后天下平。
自天子以至于庶人,壹是皆以修身为本。
其本乱而末治者否矣,其所厚者薄,而其所薄者厚,未之有也!
此谓知本,此谓知之至也。
所谓诚其意者,毋自欺也,如恶恶臭,如好好色,此之谓自谦,故君子必慎其独也!小人闲居为不善,无所不至,见君子而后厌然,掩其不善,而着其善。人之视己,如见其肺肝然,则何益矣!此谓诚于中,形于外,故君子必慎其独也。曾子曰:「十目所视,十手所指,其严乎!」富润屋,德润身,心广体胖,故君子必诚其意。
《诗》云:「瞻彼淇澳,菉竹猗猗。有斐君子,如切如磋,如琢如磨。瑟兮僴兮,赫兮喧兮。有斐君子,终不可諠兮!」「如切如磋」者,道学也;「如琢如磨」者,自修也;「瑟兮諠兮」者,恂栗也;「赫兮喧兮」者,威仪也;「有斐君子,终不可諠兮」者,道盛德至善,民之不能忘也。
《诗》云:「于戏前王不忘!」君子贤其贤而亲其亲,小人乐其乐而利其利,此以没世不忘也。
《康诰》曰:「克明德。」《太甲》曰:「顾諟天之明命。」《帝典》曰:「克明峻德。」皆自明也。
汤之盘铭曰:「茍日新,日日新,又日新。」《康诰》曰:「作新民。」《诗》曰:「周虽旧邦,其命惟新。」是故君子无所不用其极。
《诗》云:「邦畿千里,惟民所止。」《诗》云:「缗蛮黄鸟,止于丘隅。」子曰:「于止,知其所止,可以人而不如鸟乎?」《诗》云:「穆穆文王,于缉熙敬止!」为人君,止于仁;为人臣,止于敬;为人子,止于孝;为人父,止于慈;与国人交,止于信。
子曰:「听讼,吾犹人也,必也使无讼乎!」无情者不得尽其辞,大畏民志。此谓知本。
所谓修身在正其心者:身有所忿懥,则不得其正;有所恐惧,则不得其正;有所好乐,则不得其正;有所忧患,则不得其正。心不在焉,视而不见,听而不闻,食而不知其味。此谓修身在正其心。
所谓齐其家在修其身者:人之其所亲爱而辟焉,之其所贱恶而辟焉,之其所畏敬而辟焉,之其所哀矜而辟焉,之其所敖惰而辟焉。故好而知其恶,恶而知其美者,天下鲜矣!故谚有之曰:「人莫知其子之恶,莫知其苗之硕。」此谓身不修不可以齐其家。
所谓治国必先齐其家者,其家不可教而能教人者,无之。故君子不出家而成教于国:孝者,所以事君也;弟者,所以事长也;慈者,所以使众也。《康诰》曰:「如保赤子」,心诚求之,虽不中不远矣。未有学养子而后嫁者也!一家仁,一国兴仁;一家让,一国兴让;一人贪戾,一国作乱。其机如此。此谓一言偾事,一人定国。尧、舜率天下以仁,而民从之;桀、纣率天下以暴,而民从之。其所令反其所好,而民不从。是故君子有诸己而后求诸人,无诸己而后非诸人。所藏乎身不恕,而能喻诸人者,未之有也。故治国在齐其家。《诗》云:「桃之夭夭,其叶蓁蓁;之子于归,宜其家人。」宜其家人,而后可以教国人。《诗》云:「宜兄宜弟。」宜兄宜弟,而后可以教国人。《诗》云:「其仪不忒,正是四国。」其为父子兄弟足法,而后民法之也。此谓治国在齐其家。
所谓平天下在治其国者:上老老而民兴孝,上长长而民兴弟,上恤孤而民不倍,是以君子有絜矩之道也。
所恶于上,毋以使下;所恶于下,毋以事上;所恶于前,毋以先后;所恶于后,毋以从前;所恶于右,毋以交于左;所恶于左,毋以交于右。此之谓絜矩之道。
《诗》云:「乐只君子,民之父母。」民之所好好之,民之所恶恶之,此之谓民之父母。《诗》云:「节彼南山,维石岩岩。赫赫师尹,民具尔瞻。」有国者不可以不慎,辟则为天下戮矣。《诗》云:「殷之未丧师,克配上帝。仪监于殷,峻命不易。」道得众则得国,失众则失国。
是故君子先慎乎德。有德此有人,有人此有土,有土此有财,有财此有用。德者本也,财者末也,外本内末,争民施夺。是故财聚则民散,财散则民聚。是故言悖而出者,亦悖而入;货悖而入者,亦悖而出。
《康诰》曰:「惟命不于常!」道善则得之,不善则失之矣。
楚书曰:「楚国无以为宝,惟善以为宝。」舅犯曰:「亡人无以为宝,仁亲以为宝。」
《秦誓》曰:「若有一介臣,断断兮无他技,其心休休焉,其如有容焉。人之有技,若己有之;人之彦圣,其心好之,不啻若自其口出。实能容之,以能保我子孙黎民,尚亦有利哉!人之有技,媢嫉以恶之;人之彦圣,而违之俾不通。实不能容,以不能保我子孙黎民,亦曰殆哉!」唯仁人放流之,迸诸四夷,不与同中国,此谓唯仁人为能爱人,能恶人。见贤而不能举,举而不能先,命也;见不善而不能退,退而不能远,过也。好人之所恶,恶人之所好,是谓拂人之性,灾必逮夫身。是故君子有大道,必忠信以得之,骄泰以失之。
生财有大道。生之者众,食之者寡,为之者疾,用之者舒,则财恒足矣。仁者以财发身,不仁者以身发财。未有上好仁而下不好义者也,未有好义其事不终者也,未有府库财非其财者也。孟献子曰:「畜马乘,不察于鸡豚;伐冰之家,不畜牛羊;百乘之家,不畜聚敛之臣。与其有聚敛之臣,宁有盗臣。」此谓国不以利为利,以义为利也。长国家而务财用者,必自小人矣。彼为善之,小人之使为国家,灾害并至。虽有善者,亦无如之何矣!此谓国不以利为利,以义为利也。
译文
大学的宗旨在于彰明自身的光明之德,在于亲爱民众,在于使自己达到至善的境界。知道达到至善的境界而后才能确定志向,确定了志向才能心无杂念,·心无杂念才能专心致志,专心致志才能虑事周祥,虑事周祥才能达到至善。万物都有其本末,凡事都有其终始。知道了应该先作什么,后作什么,那就接近于大学的宗旨了。
古代的想要把自己的光明之德推广于天下的人,首先要治理好自己的国家;要治理好自己的国家,就要先管理好自己的家庭;要管理好自己的家庭,就要先修养好自身的品德;要修养好自身的品德,就要先端正内心;要端正内心,就要先意念真诚;要意念真诚,就要先知道什么是善恶吉凶,行善则有善报,行恶则有恶报。报应的不爽才能使其辨别善恶,能辨别善恶才能使其意念真诚,意念真诚才能使内心端正,内心端正才能使品德好生修养,品德好生修养才能使家庭管理得好,家庭管理得好才能使国家得到治理,国家得到治理才能使天下太平。上自天子,下至普通百姓,都要把修养自身品德的间题当做根本问题来抓,一这个根本问题没有抓好,而要使家庭、国家、天下的问题解决好,那是不可能的。该下力气的地方没有下,不该下力气的地方却下了力气,这样作而希望得到好的结果,也是没有的事。这就叫做知道根本,这就叫做最高的智慧。
厂少所谓意念真诚,就是不要自己欺骗自己。这就好比厌恶臭秽之的气味而嘴上不讲,又好比喜欢漂亮的女人而佯装讨厌,这叫做自我掩饰。所以君子一定谨慎自己的独处。小人在一人独处时作起坏事来,什么坏事都做得出来,只有在见到君子时才躲躲藏藏,掩盖他做过的坏事,炫耀他做过的好事。可是在他人看来,就如.同见到了他的五脏六腑那样清清楚楚,这样作又有什么好处呢!这就叫做内心有什么想法,必然要从行动上表现出来,所以君子一定要谨慎自己的终处。曾子说过:“很多眼在看着你,很多手在指着你,这多么让人敬畏啊,’毛人的贫富可以从其住室看得出来,人的道德可以从其行动看得出来,心胸宽广自然身体舒泰,所以君子一定要意念真诚。
《诗经》上说:“看那湾湾的淇水岸边,慕竹郁郁葱葱。有位风度 高雅的君子,好像切磋过的象牙,好像琢磨过的美玉。庄严而又威武,显赫而又坦荡。风度高雅的君子,教人始终难忘。”“如切如磋”是说君子的研究学间;“如琢如磨”,是说君子的修养品德。”“瑟兮侗兮”,是说君子的内心恭敬戒惧;“赫兮喧兮”,是说君子的外表威严。“有斐君子,终不可喧兮”,是说君子的道德尽善尽美,让老百姓难以忘怀。《诗经》上又说,“呜呼!先王的美德使人难忘。”君子从先王那里学到了尊重贤人和热爱亲人,小人从先王那里享受到快乐和得到实惠,因此,在先王去世以后,无论是谁都对他念念不忘。《康浩》上说:“文王能彰明德行。”《大甲》上说:“你应当关注上天赋于你的光明德行。”《尧典》上说:“帝尧能够彰明崇高的道德。”说的都是人君要自明其德。商汤的《盘铭》上说:“如能一曰自新,就能曰旧自新,每曰自新。”《康浩》上说:“要洗心革面,重作新人。”《诗经》上说:“姬周虽然原来是殷商的诸侯国,但已受天命取代殷商为天子。”所以君子在曰新其德方面是十分努力的。《诗经》_上说:“天子辖地千里,皆是百姓所居。”《诗经》上又说:“黄鸟声声鸣,止息在山麓。”孔子说:“鸟儿的止息,都知道应该止息于何处,难道人反而不如鸟吗i,,《诗经》上说:“端庄恭敬的文主啊!一光明磊落,知其所当自处。”当国君的,要达到仁的境界;当臣子的,要达到敬的境界;当子女的,要达到孝的境界;当父母的,要达到慈的境界;与国人交往,要达到信的境界。孔子说:“审理诉讼,我和别人差不多;一定要说有什么不同的话,那就是我想使诉讼从根本上不再发生。”要使无理的一方不敢凭借狡辩取胜,德行张大到使民众从内心敬畏。这就叫做知道事情的根本。
所谓要修养好自身的品德首先要端正内心:是因为自身有所愤怒,内心就不能端正;自身有所恐惧,内心就不能端正;自身有所嗜好,内心就不能端正;自身有所忧患,内心就不能端正。当你心不在焉的时候,就会视而不见,就会听而不闻,就会吃东西不知道滋味。这就叫做要修养好自身的品德首先要端正内心。
所谓要整顿好家庭首先要修养好自身:是因为人的看法往往对自己所亲爱的人会有所偏颇,对自己所厌恶的人会有所偏颇,对自己所敬畏的人会有所偏颇,对自己所怜悯的人会有所偏颇,对自己所轻视的人会有所偏颇。所以,喜爱代个人而能知道他的缺点,厌恶一个人而能知道他的优点,世上少有。所以有句谚语说:“没有一个人知道自己儿子的毛病,没有一个人认为他的庄稼长得已经够好了。”这就叫做自身的修养不搞好也就难以管理好家庭。
所谓治理好国家首先要管理好家庭能管好而能管好别人的事是没有的。所以是因为自己的家人都不,如果每个君子都管好了自己的家水,那就等于管好了全体国民。家庭中的“孝”,可以移来侍奉君主;家庭中的“梯”,可以移来侍奉官长;家庭中的“慈”,可以移来爱护百姓。《康浩》上说:“如同爱护婴儿那样。”只要诚心诚意去追求,虽然不能完全做到,但也差不多。没有先学会了养儿育女然后才出嫁的。国君一家讲究仁爱,整个国家就会讲究仁爱;国君一家讲究谦让,整个国家就会讲究谦让;国君一人贪暴,全国百姓就会作乱。事情的关键就是这样。尧舜给天下做出仁爱的表率,天下的百姓也就跟着仁爱;莱封给天下做出残暴的表率,天下的百姓也就跟着残暴。如果君主说的是一套,而做的是又一套,百姓们就不会听从。所以,君子自己做到的才能要求别人做到,自己没有这种缺点才能批评别人。自己身上就看不出有什么仁爱的影子,却要教训别人做到仁爱,这是从来没有的事。所以说,治理好国家的前提是管理好家庭。《诗经》上说:“桃花多么好看,枝叶多么茂盛。这个姑娘出嫁,定会使全家和顺。”能够使全家和顺,然后才能教育国人。《诗经》上说:“兄弟和睦相处。”兄弟能够和睦相处,然后才能教育国人。《诗经》上说:“自己的言行如一不走样,才是四方各国的好榜样。”国君自己是个好的父亲、好的儿子、好的哥哥、好的弟弟,做出了榜样,然后百姓们才会效法他。这就叫做治理好国家首先要管理好家庭。
所谓平治天下的前提在于治理好自己的国家,是因为只要国君尊敬老人,国人就会孝顺成风;只要国君尊重长者,国人就会梯道成风;只要国君体恤孤幼,国人就不会遗弃孤幼。所以君子有絮矩之道。所厌恶于上级的行为,就不再用来对待下级;所厌恶于下级的行为,就不再用来对待上级;所厌恶于前人的行为,就不再用来对待后人;所厌恶于后人的行为,就不再用来对待前人;所厌恶于在自己右边的人的行为,就不再用来对待在自己左边的人;所厌恶于在自己左边的人的行为,就不再用来对待在自己右边的人。这就叫做絮矩之道。《诗经》上说:“与民同乐的君子,乃是民之父母。”老百姓喜欢什么自己就喜欢什么,老百姓讨厌什么自己就讨厌什么,这就叫做民之父母。《诗经》上说:“巍峨的南山啊,山石高又高。显赫的太师啊,万民齐瞩目。”治理国家的人不可以麻痹大意,出了间题就要受到天下人的惩罚。《诗经》上说:“殷商未曾丧失民心时,、上帝还保佑。我们应该借鉴殷商灭亡的教训,上帝才会永远保佑。”讲的就是这样二个道理:得到民众就得到国家,失去民众就失去国家。
所以君子首先要考虑的是德行。有了德行就有了民众,有了民众就有了国土,有了国土就有了财富,有了财富就有了国用。德行是本,财富是末。轻本重末,就会从老百姓手上抢夺财富。所以说,国君聚敛财富,百姓就背离而去;国君布施财富,百姓就络绎而归。所以,国君既然有不中听的话出口,百姓就会有不中听的话进入其耳;国君的财货既然不是从正道而得,也就会不从正道出去。《康浩》上说:“天命并不总是保佑某一个人”意思是说,有好的德行就能得到它,没有好的德行就会失掉它。《楚书》上说:“楚国不把别的什么东西当做宝贝,只把德行当做宝贝。”舅犯说:“流亡者没有什么可以当做珍宝的,只有把珍视仁义作为珍宝。”
《秦誓》上说、“假如有这样的一位大臣,诚恳忠实,无他特长,但其品德高尚,心地宽厚,能够容人容物。别人有了什么本领,就好像他自己有了;别人的才能,别人的美德,他都衷心地赞美,不但口头上加以称道,而且还能包容推荐他们,这就使我的子孙黎民得到保护,也有利子国家。别人有了什么本领,他就嫉妒厌恶;别人的才能,别人的美德,他压着盖着不让国君知道,不能包容推荐,因而使我的子孙黎民不能得到保护,对国家也很危险。”只有仁爱的国君能够流放此辈嫉贤妒能之人,把他们驱逐到四夷,不和他们同居国中。这就是说,只有仁人才懂得要热爱什么样的人,厌恶什么样的人。见到贤人而不能推荐,推荐以后而不能重用,这是怠慢。见到坏人而不能斥退,斥退以后又不能流放远方,这是错误。喜欢人民所讨厌的,讨厌人民所喜欢的,这叫做违背人的本性,其结果势必灾祸临头。所以君子有一条治国大道,一定要忠信才能得到它,骄傲放纵就会失去它。
生财有方法、规律可循。这就是干活的要多,吃饭的要少,生产效率要高点,消费速度要慢点,那么财富就永远充裕了。仁者把自己的财富分给别人,赢得令名;不仁者宁要财富,不要令名,没有听说过国君爱好仁而臣下却不爱好义的。也没有听说过臣卞爱好义而事情却办不成的。也没有听说过臣下不把国家府库的财富当做自己的财富加以爱护的。孟献子说:“畜马乘之家,就不必再计较养鸡养猪之利;伐冰之家,就不必再计较养牛养羊之利;百乘之家,就不该再养活一个专门敛财的部下。与其养活一个专门敛财的部下,还不如养活一个强盗做部下。”这就是说,国家不应该以利为利,而应该以义为利。当了国君而一心想着如何敛财,必定陷入小人行径。国君想要施行仁义,却让此辈小人来管理国家,那就要闹到祸不单行,灾害并至的地步。到了这时候,即使有善人帮助,对此也无可癫了。这就是说,国家不应该以利为利,而应该以义为利啊!

大学第三章原文
作者:曾参
汤之《盘铭》曰:“苟日新,日日新,又日新。”《康诰》曰:“作新民。”《诗》曰:“周虽旧邦,其命维新。”是故君子无所不用其极。
大学第三章译文
商汤王刻在洗澡盆上的箴言说”如果能够一天新,就应保持天天新,新了还要更新。”《康诰》说:“激励人弃旧图新。”《诗经》说,“周朝虽然是旧的国家,但却禀受了新的天命。”所以,品德高尚的人无处不追求完善。
大学第三章注释
(1)汤:即成汤,商朝的开国君主。盘铭:刻在器皿上用来警戒自己的箴言。这里的器皿是指商汤的洗澡盆。
(2)苟:如果。新:这里的本义是指洗澡除去身体上的污垢,使身体焕然一新,引申义则是指行精神上的弃旧图新。
(3)作:振作,激励。新民:即“经”里面说的“亲民”,实应为“新民”。意思是使新、民新,也就是使人弃旧图新,去恶从善。
(4)“《诗曰》”句:这里的《诗》指《诗经.大雅.文王》。周,周朝。旧邦,旧国。其命,指周朝所禀受的天命。维:语助词,无意义。
(5)是故君子无所不用其极:所以品德高尚的人无处不追求完善。是故,所以。君子,有时候指贵族,有时指品德高尚的人,根据上下文不同的语言环境而有不同的意思。
延伸阅读:《大学》简介
《大学》是一篇论述儒家修身治国平天下思想的散文,原是《小戴礼记》第四十二篇,相传为曾子所作,实为秦汉时儒家作品,是一部中国古代讨论教育理论的重要著作。经北宋程颢、程颐竭力尊崇,南宋朱熹又作《大学章句》,最终和《中庸》、《论语》、《孟子》并称“四书”。宋、元以后,《大学》成为学校官定的教科书和科举考试的必读书,对中国古代教育产生了极大的影响。
《大学》提出的“三纲领”(明明德、亲民、止于至善)和“八条目”(格物、致知、诚意、正心、修身、齐家、治国、平天下),强调修己是治人的前提,修己的目的是为了治国平天下,说明治国平天下和个人道德修养的一致性[1]。
《大学》全文文辞简约,内涵深刻,影响深远,主要概括总结了先秦儒家道德修养理论,以及关于道德修养的基本原则和方法,对儒家政治哲学也有系统的论述,对做人、处事、治国等有深刻的启迪性[2]。
第五篇:大学第四章原文翻译
《大学》寄托了古人内圣外王的理想。下面是小编收集整理的大学第四章原文翻译,希望对您有所帮助!
第四章
《诗》云:“邦畿千里,维民所止。”《诗》云:“缗蛮黄鸟,止于丘隅。” 子曰:“于止,知其所止,可以人而不如鸟乎?”
《诗》云:“穆穆文王,於缉熙敬止!”为人君,止于仁;为人臣,止于敬;为人子,止于孝;为人父,止于慈;与国人交,止于信。
《诗》云:“瞻彼淇澳,菉竹猗猗。有斐君子,如切如磋,如琢如磨。瑟兮僴兮,赫兮喧兮。有斐君子,终不可喧兮!”“如切如磋”者,道学也。“如琢如磨”者,自修也。“瑟兮僴兮”者,恂栗也。“赫兮喧兮”者,威仪也。“有斐君子,终不可喧兮”者,道盛德至善,民之不能忘也。
《诗》云:“於戏,前王不忘!”君子贤其贤而亲其亲,小人乐其乐而利其利,此以没世不忘也。
译文
《诗经》说:“京城及其周围,都是老百姓向往的地方。”《诗经》又说:“‘绵蛮’叫着的黄鸟,栖息在山冈上。”孔子说:“连黄鸟都知道它该栖息在什么地方,难道人还可以不如一只鸟儿吗?”
《诗经》说:“品德高尚的文王啊,为人光明磊落,做事始终庄重谨慎。”做国君的,要做到仁爱;做臣子的,要做到恭敬;做子女的,要做到孝顺;做父亲的,要做到慈爱;与他人交往,要做到讲信用。
《诗经》说:“看那淇水弯弯的岸边,嫩绿的竹子郁郁葱葱。有一位文质彬彬的君子,研究学问如加工骨器,不断切磋;修炼自己如打磨美玉,反复琢磨。他庄重而开朗,仪表堂堂。这样的一个文质彬彬的君子,真是令人难忘啊!”这里所说的“如加工骨器,不断切磋”,是指做学问的态度;这里所说的“如打磨美玉,反复琢磨”,是指自我修炼的精神;说他“庄重而开朗”,是指他内心谨慎而有所戒惧;说他“仪表堂堂”,是指他非常威严;说“这样一个文质彬彬的君子,可真是令人难忘啊!”是指由于他品德非常高尚,达到了最完善的境界,所以使人难以忘怀。
《诗经》说:“啊啊,前代的君王真使人难忘啊!”这是因为君主贵族们能够以前代的君王为榜样,尊重贤人,亲近亲族,一般平民百姓也都蒙受恩泽,享受安乐,获得利益。所以,虽然前代君王已经去世,但人们还是永远不会忘记他们。
