Due Attention Should Be Given to SpellingIn learning English, spelling receives the least attention among quite a few students nowadays. The reasons are simple but thought-provoking.Topping the list is the prevailing use of computers to handle our daily paper work. Since many word processing soft wares are becoming increasingly powerful to correct almost all spelling mistakes, we tend to neglect the exact spelling of many words. Besides, some people hold the notion that as long as one is able to communicate in English, it is not at all important whether he can spell the word he uses or not. Last but not least, our exams do not test spellings so much as they used to, shifting students attention to other aspects of English acquisition.Therefore, in order to change the situation, students should be encouraged to depend less on automatic spelling-check software. At the same time, teachers should highlight the importance of correct spelling, which, to a certain extent, indicates the degree of English level.由于应注意拼写在学习英语，拼写收到不少学生现在最不重视。原因很简单，但耐人寻味。排在首位的是当时使用计算机来处理我们的日常文书工作。由于许多文字处理软商品正变得越来越强大，纠正几乎所有的拼写错误，我们往往忽略了许多词的确切拼写。此外，有些人认为，只要一个人能够用英语进行交流，这是不是他是否能拼出他使用或不字，在所有重要的概念。最后但并非最不重要的，我们考试不考拼写，因为他们用了这么多，转移学生的注意力，以英语习得的其他方面。因此，为了改变这种状况，应鼓励学生较少依赖于自动拼写检查软件。同时，教师要突出正确的拼写，这在一定程度上预示了英语水平的重视程度。How Should Parents Help Children to Be Independent Nowadays, a lot of parents are overdoing in taking care of their children. From doing laundry to job hunting, they have made every effort. However, such deeds deprive the youth of opportunities to grow independent.In order to cultivate a sense of independence in their children, parents are supposed to first stop doing what the youngsters are able to do for themselves. Besides, it is advisable that parents expose their children to more difficulties and failures on purpose, helping them to learn valuable lessons from setbacks. Last but not least, parents should help their children develop a sense of responsibility.It is hopeful that all parents realize an independent soul dies in a bed of roses and find a more sensible way to love their kids.家长应如何帮助孩子独立如今，很多家长都在矫枉过正采取他们的孩子。从洗衣服到求职，他们已经尽了一切努力。然而，这种行为剥夺了发展机遇独立的青年。为了培养独立子女的意识，家长应该先停止做什么的年轻人都能够为自己做。此外，建议家长揭露他们的孩子更多的困难和失败的宗旨，帮助他们学习宝贵的经验教训，从挫折。最后但并非最不重要的，家长应帮助孩子养成一种责任感。这是希望所有的父母意识到一个独立的灵魂死在一个称心如意的，找到一个更明智的方式来爱自己的孩子。 Online Shopping Online shopping has become a fashion trend. Almost everyone has experienced online shopping-some even have got accustomed to it. However, while making our life easier, it may bring us problems as well. Good ranging from fruit to steak, from a book to an intensive training program, from a film ticket to a package tour can all be purchased without leaving ones home, which safes all the traffic jams, parking inconvenience and queuing time.Nevertheless, goods or services of poor quality, fake products or even Internet frauds may consume rather than save our time, energy, and money, turning our online shopping into a nightmare.

Ive done it hundreds of times.” But have you ever thought about its implication? Undoubtedly, nothing succeeds without a strong will.Those who claim to have practiced smoking-quitting for hundreds of times failed to have a strong will. Without a strong will, one can never give up smoking once and for all, not to mention being successful in other endeavors. It is a strong will that contributes to the success of the Olympic winners, that results in the spectacular victory of the 2010 World Expo, and that leads to the successful exploration of the moon.Where there is a will, there is a way. Only when the will is strong enough will the way lead us to success.没有成功，没有坚强的意志也许我们大多数人都听过的幽默说法的“戒烟是最容易的事在世界上。我已经做了几百次。“但你有没有想过它的含义？毫无疑问，没有成功，没有坚强的意志。这些谁声称已经练吸烟戒烟数百次未能有坚强的意志。如果没有坚强的意志，谁也不能放弃吸烟一劳永逸，更何况是成功的其他努力。这是有助于奥林匹克获奖者的成功，这将导致2010年世博会的壮观胜利坚强的意志，并且通向成功探索月球。凡有意愿，有办法。只有当意志够强将一路引领我们走向成功。On Excessive PackagingExcessive packaging has increasingly become a common concern of the public. A package is supposed to serve as a cover of the product to keep it clean and prevent it from being damaged. However, most of the current packages have already surpassed the mere function of packaging.The reasons for this are obvious. The primary reason, presumably, is that the manufactures attempt to attract potential customs with delicate packaging, or to cover up the inferior quality of the product. The second reason is that the consumers want to show their sincerity and elegance with beautifully packaged gift.Personally I think excessive packaging should be controlled because it conceals the quality of the product, consumes a lot of resources and adds much to the cost of the goods. To improve the present situation, manufactures had better distinguish family packaging separately so that consumers could make choices according to their own needs.对过度包装过度包装越来越成为公众的共同关注。一种包装是应该作为产品的一个盖，以保持它的清洁，并防止它被损坏。然而，大多数当前的包已经超过包装的单纯功能。这种情况的原因是显而易见的。主要的原因，想必是在生产试图吸引与精致包装的潜在习俗，或掩盖了产品的质量低劣。第二个原因是，消费者希望展示自己的诚意，优雅与精美包装礼盒。我个人认为，过度包装应该控制，因为它掩盖了产品的质量，消耗了大量的资源，并增加了多少货物的成本。为了改善目前的情况，制造了更好的区分家庭分开包装，使消费者可以根据自己的需要进行选择。Education Pays As shown in the graph, among those with doctoral degree, the unemployment rate is 1.9%; while in sharp contrast, for those without even a high school diploma, the unemployment rate is 14.9%. The fact revealed by the statistics is obvious: the unemployment rate is in opposite proportion to the level of education- the higher the degree, the lower the unemployment rate.What are the reasons leading to the situation reflected in the graph? Firstly, education offers us basic knowledge or certain skills to land a job. Secondly, higher education provides more advance knowledge or more sophisticated skill, which will ensure us to be more competitive in our career. Thirdly, the more education we receive, the better we can handle problems and stress confronted in our careers, thus achieving sustainable development in our career.Education really pays. Lets study harder and strive for a brighter future.教育自付如图中所示，在那些有博士学位，失业率为1.9;而形成鲜明对比的，对于那些甚至没有高中文凭，失业率为14.9。经统计发现，这一事实是显而易见的：失业率是相反的比例，教育水平-学历越高，较低的失业率。什么是导致反映在图中的情况的原因是什么？首先，教育为我们提供了基本的知识或某种技能找到一份工作。其次，高等教育提供了更先进的知识和更复杂的技能，这将确保我们能够在我们的职业生涯更具有竞争力。第三，更多的教育我们接受，我们就能更好地处理问题和面对的压力在我们的职业生涯，从而实现我们的事业可持续发展。教育真正支付。让我们努力学习，争取一个光明的未来。The Importance of Learning Basic Skills The drawing above vividly shows that the need to learn basic skills such as multiplication table is questioned. In reality, there is also concern about whether basic skills might become out-dated and of no help to college graduates.As I see it, the basic skills college students learn will not turn old-fashioned. Instead, they will remain as important as they will ever be. To begin with, though basic skills is often classified as impractical subjects that cannot be applied directly to ones future career, it is these basis subjects that lay a solid foundation for more advanced skills, preparing us for further studies. Furthermore, most basic skills, like calculating and literacy, are always necessary in a variety of occupations. It is obvious that no employer is willing to hire a graduate who cant even fully understand a written contract. For this reason a lack of these skills may result in future career failure. To sum up, insignificant and boring as learning basic skills may seem, it is actually of great importance and should not be neglected.学习基本技能的重要性该图生动以上表明，需要学习的基本技能，比如乘法表质疑。在现实中，也有关于没有帮助高校毕业生基本功是否有可能成为过时和关注。在我看来，基本技能的大学生学不会变成老气。相反，它们将保持，因为他们将永远为重要。首先，虽然基本技能往往是归类不能直接应用到自己的未来职业不切实际科目，正是这些基础学科奠定了更先进的技术了坚实的基础，我们准备继续深造。此外，最基本的技能，如计算和识字，总是需要在各种职业。很明显，没有雇主愿意聘请的毕业生谁甚至不能完全理解书面合同。基于这个原因，缺乏这些技能可能会导致将来的事业失败。归纳起来，微不足道的，乏味的学习基本技能看起来，这是非常重要的实际和不应该被忽视。The Impact of the Internet on Learning As the Internet has exerted great influence on learning, an increasing number of individuals contend that acquiring information means education. However, education involves much more than simply learning to obtain information. Form my perspective, education involves critical thinking and practical skills rather than a mere accumulation of information. On the one hand, critical thinking is essential to scientific progress, contributing to innovation and technical advancement. Just as Confucius put it, “learning without thinking leads to confusion”. On the other hand, it is crucial to apply what you have learned into practice and thats the very reason why outstanding scientists accomplish great achievements in their profession. In a word, the Internet does provide valuable information for learners, but people should be fully aware of the essence of education and attach importance to cultivating the ability of independence thinking instead of relying on the Internet. Only by emphasizing innovation can education be completely fulfilled in practice. On the Overuse of the Mobile Phone As is shown in the above picture, having a mobile phone in hand and at the ready is the default mode of many people walking on the streets. What this cartoon symbolically reveals is that people nowadays, especially young people, are growing increasingly dependent on their mobile phones. It is true that the mobile phone has brought great convenience to peoples life. However, just as is illustrated in the picture, the overuse of it leads to several bad consequences. To begin with, there is evidence that long-term exposure to electromagnetic radiation may trigger many health problems, such as insomnia, headaches and even cancer. In addition, when people immerse themselves in the use of the mobile phone, they tend to pay less attention to their surroundings, posing an immediate threat to their life, health and property. Last but not least, excessive use of the mobile phone means less chance of face-to-face interactions with the people who populate their real lives. In conclusion, while mobile phones have contributed a lot to making our life more convenient, we should use them appropriately and rationally. A Tour to Mountain TaiI am delighted to learn that my foreign friend, Bill, is going to take a vacation in my hometown. For the sake of his hospitality I enjoyed in England, I will show him around the landscape, among which Mountain Tai is unquestionably on the top of my list.Centuries ago, at the summit of the mountain, Confucius exclaimed that the world was small; in modern times, everyone is bound to appreciate its spectacularity and sacredness. Mountain Tai is more than a mountain; it is a place which symbolize hope and auspiciousness, embodying profound culture. Furthermore, Mount Tai is considered to be sacred to the point where almost every ancient Chinese emperor for a p
