    阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

Increased College Enrollment

    In recent years, there is a steady increase in college enrollment. To many high-school students, it's definitely good news，for they would have better chance of receiving higher education.

    You don't have to look very far to find out the advantages of the increased college enrollment. For one thing, it lessens the worries of both high school graduates and their parents. Besides，increased college enrollment can contribute to raise the educational level of our nation. What's more, increased college enrollment can provide more students with specialized knowledge, thus serving our development in a positive way.

    On the other hand, we can not deny that there are some potential problems about increased college enrollment. To begin with, with the increased number of students, the shortage of teaching staff and facilities becomes clearly seen. Worst of all, increased college enrollment leads to increased competition in the job market.

    It's not an easy task to tell whether the tendency should be encouraged. As to me, it's laudable to grant more students higher education. But a college degree is by no means a guarantee for a better job or future. To cast a promising career, we need a lot more abilities which we can not learn from college.

 Save Resources and Love Our School

阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

   Nowadays we live in a global village, and many difficulties will arise if we can’t express ourselves fluently in English.

   In spite of my awareness of its importance,I seldom find chances to practice and improve my oral English.So,I am still very weak with regard to this respect.One reason is that my pronunciation and intonation aren’t good enough.The other is that I am so shy that I am always too nervous to find other exact words to express my ideas and feelings.As a result the best way for me to do is to remain silent when others are practicing and making great progress in their oral English every day.

   Now I am attaching much more importance to oral English and I have made up my mind to seize every opportunity to parctice. I begin to participate activities,such as going to “English Corners”,talking in English with my classmates and with native speakers. “Nothing is difficult in the world if you really put your heart to it.”as the Chinese saying goes.If I can build up my confidence,if I am not afraid of losing face any more,if I really work hard on it,I am sure my oral English will be excellent someday
