精选文库顾家北 0813精品班作文大作文Many people think it is very important to protect the environment but they make no effort to do it themselves. Why do you think it is the case? What actions can be done to ensure that individuals protect the environment?顾家北Environmental problems have threatened the world but few people have chosen to take any action to deal with these problems, although they realise the impact of these environmental woes on their lives. We should implement some changes to improve the situation. Many people spend money wisely, so they are not willing to purchase environmentally friendly products, despite the fact that these products can help preserve the environment. These products are normally more expensive than conventional counterparts. For example, LED lighting devices are energy efficient, but normally charge consumers a higher price than traditional light bulbs. Electric cars are normally likely to cost more money than those vehicles powered by petrol. As consumers do not opt for these green products, it is not easy to conserve resources and reduce pollution. Another reason is that many people are not willing to change their ways of life, even though these lifestyles can be harmful to the environment. The use of electrical equipment has led to a sharp rise in electricity consumption, which means that the power generation sector has a higher demand for fossil fuels. People also prefer to travel by car, but car emissions can cause global warming, which is a threat to the environment. The reliance on different electronic products including mobile phones is another issue, since many of these products end up in landfill sites. These problems can be tackled by two policies. Governments can enact laws to forbid those behaviours which can cause damage to the environment, such as disposing of waste carelessly. Those who drop litter should be fined, so the environmental impact of this behaviour can be reduced. Another solution is to offer subsidies to encourage people to go green. For example, those consumers who buy fuel efficient cars can be subsidised, so car emissions can be reduced significantly.lCurrently, more and more people are aware of the importance of environmental protection but the public never give priority to protect environment during their daily life.One reason accounts for the phenomenon is that people live carefully without spending their money on environmental products. Households live with a tight budget are not willing to spend their money these products, whose prices are higher than other similar goods. For instance, LED lights are energy saving, but they are more expensive than incandescent bulbs. Similarly, prices of electric vehicles are higher than those of traditional vehicles averagely. For the sake of money, people quit buying green products and this is contrary to our purpose of environmental protection.Another reason can be that people are not willing to change their living styles, which need to consume various kinds of energy. For example, electronic appliances consume electricity while driving consumes petrol. Especially those who are fond of plenty of materials consume more.Personally, the government are supposed to establish relevant laws to ban citizens from doing detrimental behaviours to environment. Punishments are imperative for those who littered. On the other hand, it is also imperative for the government to give subsidies to encourage environmental protection. Some countries, such as China, provide subsidies for those who purchasing vehicles under 1.6L.All in all, only through the joint efforts of government and individuals can we live in a sustainable environment.lCurrently, a large proportion of children are exposed to an ocean of commercial advertisements day to day. I am on the side that the ads, which purposely incite kids to buy snacks, toys and electronic games, should be limited or even, banned.Suppose that ads aim to kids were rectified, children will not request their parents to buy what they want day in and day out. Kids lack sensitivity to price, nevertheless, parents tend to satisfy their material needs. For instance, some children like expensive toys and girls are in favor of clothes. This will bring a heavy burden for the middle-class families. Only by minimize the impact of ads on kids can the problem be avoided.Children may have eccentric behaviours and bad living habits due to the ads. Some kids are fans of fast food, since they see ads of it every day. Others are in bad temper, due to the violent games they play daily. The predominance of games is also resulted from merchants propaganda. All these problems will influence the healthy growth process of kids both physically and mentally. However, we cannot deny that some ads do have their advantages to kids. Some advertisements promote nutrient food, such as milk, wheat, etc. Meanwhile, some advertise books, games and educational toys. Parents, who are not familiar with these products, can have a comprehensive verdict according to advertisements. In a nutshell, I strongly suggest the government ban ads whose target consumers are kids, especially if their products are harmful to children. But if the products the advertisements focus on are beneficial, then the ads should be allowed. 小作文第一篇The table illustrates the proportion of people who are laid off in Poland, Denmark, Germany, Italy and Hungary. The two colons are the figures of young people (aged from 15-24) and all citizens respectively.The highest unemployment rate for young goes to Poland, which reaches 37% and is twice more than the rate of its overall rate 15%. Coming next is Italy. The proportion of its young citizens who are out of work is 23% and its unemployment of whole country comes to top at 18%. Hungary shows mediocre rates of 21% and 17%. And German figures are 4% and 3% lower than Denmark respectively. Denmark keeps both figures lowest, with the unemployment rate for 15-24 age group 8% and for overall only 3%.All of the five countries show 35% rates lower of overall unemployment than those of the young, except Poland which has the largest gap between the two figures. 第二篇The bar charts provide us information about how families in an Asian country spent their money in 1998 and 2008.A glance at the charts tells that expenditure on different goods in 2008 overweighed that in 1998 except that spent on clothes. People gave much more priority to spiritual enjoyment which lead to a huge increase of expenditure on holiday, eating out, reading (newspapers and magazines) and going to cinema, rising from 8% to 15%, 6% to 15%,3% to 8% and 3%to 5% respectively. The costs for electronic goods also increased from 12% to14% during the decade. The only difference is expenditure on clothes which was totally opposite to the mainstream. The proportion of it was 10% in 1998; however it dropped to half of its original rates in 2008. All in all, the past 10 years witnessed a huge change of the expenditure on various of aspects for households.第三篇The charts tell the proportion of different categories of house people live in three parts of Australia in 2001 and 2006.In 2001, Victoria had 76% residents in house, 12% in semi-detached house, 11%in apartments and the rest in other types. In NSW, house also accounted for the largest part of 66%, with 10% and 13% in duplex and flat respectively. And more people lived in other kinds. Tasmania had largest proportion of house living population, which reaches 88%. Five years later, the rates for house all dropped 2% in the three regions. As for semi-detached house, Victoria, NSW and Tasmania saw 1% increase, 1percent decrease and stability respectively. The figures of flat all had a slightly increase. And for the rest unmentioned types, they remained the same at 1% except NSW rose from 11% to 12%.The table compares five European countries in terms of the proportions of unemployed people as well as the figures for those young people out of work. Poland had the highest youth unemployment rate at 37%, nearly five times the level in Denmark. The levels of unemployment for young people were similar in other countries, with the highest seen in Italy 23% and the lowest in Germany at 17%. It is clear from the table that in all these countries, the unemployment rate for the younger generation was higher than the overall unemployment figures. Interestingly, Poland, Germany, Italy and Hungary had similar unemployment rates, ranging between 15% and 18%. The figure for Denmark was significantly lower at 3%. Overall, youth unemployment was more serious in Poland than in other countries. Denmark had the lowest figures for both youth unemployment and overall unemployment, while other countries had similar figures for these problems.流程图写作The chart illustrates how to use cocoa beans to produce several food items for customers. Firstly, whole beans are carefully picking before drying in the shell. Then they are pressed into cocoa liquor, which is the main material of the second stage. Then cocoa liquor is further pressed until it becomes a coca cake, which is directly sent to industry to make cakes and drinks or is sold to the consumer after grinded into cocoa powder. The cocoa liquor can also convert into cocoa and then be sent to relevant industry. Cocoa liquor, after further refining, mix with cocoa and sugar turns to industry chocolate. Finished chocolate products will be put on the shell, before the final process.All in all, cocoa beans can be used to produce cocoa powder, chocolate products and ingredients for relevant industry through three simple stages starting from pre-processing raw material to final packaging for sell. 顾家北The whole beans are picked at the first stage with shells removed, and then dried and pressed until cocoa liquor is created. This marks the start of the second stage, which involves three processes. The cocoa liquor can be used to make coca cakes in the first option. Another choice is the manufacture of cocoa, while cocoa liquor is refined in the third process to produce industrial chocolate. In the final stage, these materials are processed further to create different end products for either corporate clients or ordinary consumers. Coca cakes are ground into cocoa powder for individual consumers, or directly delivered to catering businesses which provide drinks and cakes. Cocoa in the second procedure mentioned earlier is also transported to these businesses. In contrast, the industrial chocolate is flavored with sugar, and finished chocolate products are subsequently available for consumers. 第一篇The table provides us with data of the percentage of consumer expenditure on different items in five countries in 2002.The biggest number existed in Turkey, where people spent 32.14% of their income on food, drink and tobacco, almost five times the number of percentage spent on clothing (6.63%) and eight times the figure of percentage spent on spiritual enjoyment. Coming next is Ireland, whose percentage of national consumer expenditure of eating was 28.91%. Costs for clothing and footwear accounted for only 6.43%, three times the expenditure of leisure and education. Spain took the third place though the proportion of its national consumer expenditure was the lowest (1.98%). Expenditure of food items in Spain accounted for 18.8%, threefold the figure of its clothing spending. Italy and Sweden citizens had small percentages of income spent on food(16.36%，15.77%)，only about half the figure of Turkey. However, their clothing costs (9%, 5.4%) and spiritual pay-outs (3.2%, 3.22%) were relatively high. In a nutshell, the percentages of national consumer expenditure by category in 2001 varied a lot among the five countries. But all shared some similarities, namely, largest proportion of expenditure on food, drink and tobacco and smallest percentage of leisure and education costs.第二篇The bar charts show the number of marriages and divorces in USA and marital status of American adults during the period of 1970 to 2000.The number of marriages remained at 2.5 million in 1970 and 1980, after which it had a slightly decrease to 2 million in 2000.

The proportions of both married and widowed adults saw drops during the three decades. Married adults accounted for 70% in 1970 while the figure was less than 60% in 2000. As for divorce rate, it had a significant rise form nearly 0% to almost 10%. All in all, the period from 1970 to 2000 witnessed a huge change of marriages and divorces in America. Both the total number and percentage of marriage decreased while the proportions of never married and divorced people saw an upward trend.流程图The two diagrams illustrate how to produce cement and how to use cement to produce concrete.Cement production is relatively complex and uses two materials. Firstly, limestone and clay are placed in the crusher, where these materials are crushed by the crusher. Then powder is mixed by the mixer, before being heated by the rotating heater. At the next stage, heated powder is sent to the grind, where it is grounded into cement. And finally cement is packed in the bags.Concrete production is relatively simple. 15% of cement, 10% of water, 25% of sand and 50% of gravel, namely small stones are mix in the concrete mixer, where they turned out to be concrete. All in all, cement production includes 5 stages and the outcome cement is one of the four raw materials of the concrete production.地图The maps show how an area changed during the period of 1780 to 2000. In 1780, there were 100 homes located on the north-eastern corner with woods to the south. A river crossed the area from south to north with four farms in the middle of the region.80 years later, the number of dwelling places doubled to 200, while the number of farms dropped by half and woods also shrank in size. A road was built in the north area, connecting the living place to the river. Another major change is that a bridge was constructed over the river.In 2000, the number of homes suddenly increased to 500 and a newly built road, heading towards south replaced farm and woods area, which linked the dwelling places to the school and sports field in the south. Several shops opened to the right side of the downstream river with a wetland for birds to their south. Overall, this area saw an increase in constructions such as dwelling places, schools and facilities, although farmland and forests were removed for new buildings and transport infrastructure. 大作文We live in cities or towns which have museums displaying historical and cultural importance, but people do not visit them. Why do you think people do not visit museums in their local areas？What is the importance of museums to society?顾家北Visiting museums is hardly a rewarding experience for many people, so they will not consider this option when they can spend leisure time on other activities. These museums do not organize new exhibitions that can keep up with the trends, or provide any form of entertainment like interactive games to attract the young audience. This is why a trip to a museum can hardly compete for attention with sports, picnics and parties. Another reason is that people can gather information about those artefacts on display on the Internet. They will increase knowledge about the stories behind and the cultural value of each item, without having to visiting the museum in person. Museums can encourage visitors interest in their cultural heritage and disseminate knowledge about a city or a countys cultural assets. Some exhibitions may show ancient utensils used by previous generations, so people who attend these exhibitions may have a good idea of how traditional food was cooked. Some historical documents and paintings might show the architectural style which used to predominate, and many visitors might be impressed by the architectural achievements of their ancestors. With such knowledge, these visitors may make an effort to preserve some traditions and keep some old-fashioned cooking skills or building techniques alive. Museums have also been operating as a center of learning, where young people can keep up to date with the cutting-edge technology in different fields. The aviation museums, for example, give children a glimpse of the airline industry and even space travel, including spaceships and equipment supporting astronauts who explored the outer space. The museum of archeology can show them how some species have died out, and possibly inspire them to do research in biology and extend our knowledge of how to preserve our ecosystem. They could not make contributions to social progress, if they did not have access to such knowledge. Recently, an increasing number of people refused to pay a visit to museums in their local places. Personally, following reasons may account for the phenomenon.Some people reckon museums as boring places so that they are never willing to visit. For example, the historical and cultural importance displayed there has never changed and there is no entertainment, such as interactive games. All these tend to left people a boring feeling. In contrast, people prefer to join some interesting activities such as ball games, picnic and dining out. Another reason is that nowadays people learn history and acquire science knowledge through internet rather than go to library in person. Information of the exhibitions the historical value and story can be easily accessed on line.However, visit
