Dozens of old people gather in public parks and squares early in the morning, turn on the loudspeakers and dance to the music, which has been controversial because of the noise pollution it creates. 　　　　　　　　(Para 1为Introduction:见表格上说明内容)

Some citizens hold the view that the loud noise is unbearable, thus disturbing the normal life of the people living near the squares and they also hope that the groups can keep the volume down to create a quiet environment. However, the retirees think group dancing brings them health and happiness, without which their life will be extremely boring. Besides, they have their own right to dance on the square as it is also one of the recreational activities like playing chess or playing cards.　 (Para 2为不同心声,即观点)

In my opinion, there is no denying that getting together to dance allows the elderly to maintain health and be social (make more new friends who share the same hobby with them, and build up their body as well). However, whatever their choice of entertainment, it’s important not to neglect the public order and affect other people’s lives. So it’s time for the government to draft regulations which include details such as the restrictions on the volume, the areas and the musical equipment. Only in this way can we see a harmonious scene.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　(Para 3为你的观点)

With the development of our modern society, children have more and more pocket money, which has raised public concern. As is seen from the pictures, nearly twenty-six percent of the students take 50-100yuan or more from their parents every week while forty percent get less than 10yuan. Although four in ten parents refuse to give the money when thinking it’s not reasonable, half of them seldom refuse their children’s request and one in ten cares little about how the money is spent. Therefore, some students with a large amount of pocket money may not know how to use it appropriately. Just as the picture shows, to show off how rich he is, one student treats his classmates to dinner, asking them to order whatever they like.

　　 　　There are several reasons for the phenomenon but I think the main reason for this is that children aren’t taught the skills to manage money.

So I have some suggestions to make. First, parents should help kids learn money-management skills by making a plan. Besides, more opportunities should be offered to kids, helping them know earning money is hard work. Only in this way will kids learn to save the money.

As is shown in the picture, the traffic jam is so heavy that it is more of a parking lot than a crowded street. Anxious passengers cannot take buses because there are few buses. Instead, the street is filled with too many private cars and official cars.

　 　　　The phenomenon is not uncommon nowadays. With the number of private cars and official cars increasing, traffic jams are certain to happen. Heavy transportation pressure in large cities may bring much inconvenience to people and have negative impacts on the environment. For one thing, when traffic jam happens, drivers and passengers have to waste a lot of precious time on the road. For another, waste gas produced by cars has polluted the environment and caused carbon emission, which is against the concept of living a low carbon life.

　　　 　In my opinion, the government should take effective measures to deal with the traffic jam. Firstly, it is necessary to raise private car purchase taxes so as to restrict private car ownership rate. Secondly, public transportation should be encouraged and promoted so that we can have a smooth transportation.

2、漫画

①　　　 As is shown in the picture, in front of a computer happily sits a teenager, attempting to work on his homework, only by searching the Internet for the answers.

The picture does show us that our life has been greatly influenced and changed by the

Internet. With the Internet’s convenience and efficiency, we can acquire what we want from the Internet. So under much study pressure, many students tend to turn to the Internet for help whenever faced with difficulties. However, while computers are helping students finish the academic jobs, they are also killing the students' creative thinking and exploration spirit. One main effect of this key­board dependence is that the young, nowadays, even can seldom spell correctly, so let alone the improvement of their learning capacity and skills.

In my view, while enjoying the conveniences of the Internet, we should learn how to

　handle the problems it has caused. Only in this way will the benefits of the Internet outweigh its problems.

②　　 In the cartoon, the man enjoys being clever and wishes to do a great job. However,

regretfully, he is firmly fastened to his original position by the nature of laziness and

certainly achieves nothing.

　　 　　In fact, you can see many such examples in life. Just as the old saying goes, “diligence

leads to success while laziness results in failure”. Every task requires hard work, from

learning English to building a house. Some of my classmates are definitely clever, and they

have a strong desire to go to a famous university, but unfortunately, they are accustomed to

wasting time getting around, talking or playing. And consequently, they end in failure.

　　 　　Therefore, in my opinion, diligence plays a very important role in life. Only by

working hard and practicing a lot are we able to overcome difficulties and achieve our goals. No one can succeed just by thinking without any actions.

概括1：As modern technology gets people much closer than ever before, it is of great significance for people to study abroad, which not only improves themselves but also helps people confront a variety of challenges together.

概括2：In the modern world with a closer link, to experience different cultures and societies is what studying abroad is more about, which may benefit both the individual’s future and the future of the country.

In her speech made in Peking University, she mentioned a famous Chinese saying: “It

is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.” This saying highlights the importance of travelling, which means if one wants to understand people and the world profoundly(具有深远影响地), travelling is a better way than just reading books directly.

I am strongly for this idea, which is really meaningful and helpful to us. As we know,

we gain knowledge from books, and put them into practice finally. Yet most of time, we find that the knowledge of the book is quite different from that of reality. Travelling can tell us the truth, helping us learn the world more clearly. Sometimes, what the books tell us is rather idealized. Not until we experience in person do we realize that the world is not as pure and simple as we think.

As students, we of course should read as much as we can, but meanwhile if possible,

we can travel to other places personally, contacting different people, experiencing various cultures, and learning different languages. These may not be acquired by reading, but can help us understand the world better and live a better life in the future.
