题目：Buying or Borrowing Books? 买书还是借书呢？
Books are close friends of humanity. They can arm us with knowledge and information we need to make success of life. Through books we can obtain skills and techniques for survival and development. Through books we can enlighten our spirits and live a fuller life. There are generally two ways in which we can have access to books: borrowing or buying. While millions are borrowing books, I still think buying them best suits me and gives me the greatest enjoyment.
Admittedly, there are a few merits for borrowing books. For one thing, borrowing books can save us huge amounts of money. And of course, with the money saved we can do other more worthy things .And also, as we borrow books from the library and friends, we normally have deadline to finish them, and consequently we can read more books in a limited time. And we can, above all, better our efficiency of our reading, just as a famous Chinese saying goes, “books can not be read unless borrowed.”
However, some advantages for buying books are more obvious and compelling. One of them, definitely not shared by the choice of borrowing books, is the abundance of freedom that buying books can offer us. Since we can keep the books as long as we wish, we can read as much as we want. Another strength of owing books is that we can take whatever notes on the margin of the pages of the books. And finally, the process of selecting and keeping books can be a great fun that borrowing books can by no means offer.
While borrowing books can, to some extent, quench our thirst for knowledge, buying books gives us greater pleasure of selecting and keeping the best of the world treasure. Can we think of any thing else more delightful and rewarding?

题目Buying or Borrowing Books? 买书还是借书呢？
Life without books is life without light. By books, we improve the material gain and elevate our spiritual civility; by books we praise the good and refute the wicked; by books, we inform the wise and educate the ignorant. There are generally two ways in which we can have access to books: borrowing or buying. While millions are borrowing books, I still think buying them best suits me and give me the greatest enjoyment.

题目 Benefits of Joining Various Organizations
Last week, our class had a heated discussion about whether we college students should join various organizations on campus like Student Union. Some believe it beneficial whereas others think it does no good. For my part, there are many benefits for getting involved in these organizations.
First of all, we can improve our ability to communicate with people. Suppose we take part in an organization, we must manage programs. Then we inevitably need help from the fellow students and advice from teachers. And all these require us to have strong social ability. Secondly, we can spice our life in college by participating various activities. And such events as basket ball campaigns, volunteering works, and evening gala really can add to our emotional energy. Finally, getting ourselves involved provides us with incentives for our studies. When we join an organization, we often take charge of certain works like management. We are leaders. As leaders, we, of course, should set others good examples. And studying hard and well will probably be the wise way to accomplish that goal.
All in all, we can learn a lot from all these activities. By actively involving ourselves in them we can meet new people and make more friends, improve our ability, and above all study well.

题目Team Work： How to Achieve Team Work
"Experience is the best teacher," people say. Indeed, the most important, and sometimes the hardest, lessons we learn in life come from our participation in situations. For my part, you can't learn everything from a book. And only practice makes you a successful person.
To begin with, first-hand experience is important for a child. When we were children, we learned the fundamental lessons of life solely from experience. That is to say, parents teach us by experience such as how to walk steadily, how to cope with the adults, and so on and so forth. Secondly, first-hand experience is also important for an adolescent. At school, we do not learn everything from books, in that few books can teach us successfully how to meet new people and make more friends. Finally, as we leave adolescence behind and enter adult life, no book can teach us how to fall in love and get married. But experiencing our own triumphs and disasters is really the only way to learn how to live a successful life.
To conclude, knowledge gained both from experience and from books have their respective roles to play in our life. However, in my view, I think the former one is more important than the latter one. The most important lessons can't be taught; they have to be experienced.

TV—Blessing or Curse?
Few things in the modern world have so much influence on people as the television does. Being besieged with TV news, absorbing teleplays, well-masterminded programmes, one can easily conclude that TV is a real blessing to the human society, offering affluent entertainment and information. Yet, convenient and helpful as it is, the television also brings negative effects.
To begin with, TV makes people more passive than before: since everything on TV is ready-made, there is no space for audience's initiatives. The news has been carefully edited, teleplays well shot, programmes rehearsed, so all you need to do—and all you can do is to sit on a comfortable sofa and look at the screen. Though a lot of people enjoy doing this, the undoubted truth is that people are becoming more passive simply because there is no interaction and no efforts on them.
Television also contributes to the fact that people nowadays are more distant to each other. Since most of our free time is taken away by the act of watching TV, we can no longer find enough time to visit friends, call on relatives or go to
interesting places. This is also true within a family, parents and children and other members are less close to each other, because family get-togethers and conversations are disturbed by TV—when one member is watching TV, he would like others to keep quiet.
Of course I am not denying the great conveniences and huge benefits the TV brings us, but to make it a really blessing to us, we should try to avoid its negative effects.

Television Revolution
Nowadays, it is difficult for us to consider how our lives would be like without television. Although television addict some adolescents to situation comedies; although televisions put glasses on millions of students' noses; although television reduce communications between families and friends, I still think the advantages television brings to us is far more than the harm it does to us.
To us individuals, when we finish a whole day's work and feel exhausted both physically and mentally, we may turn on televisions and have a good relaxation; when we want to get information on sports、entertainment or large events in the world, we turn on televisions and get it from all kinds of TV programs; even when we want to learn English、etiquette or custom of foreign countries, we can turn on the television and get what we need from them, always. As to the corporate world, television is also of great use. By advertising their products or service on television, corporations can improve their sale and make more benefit.
In a word, I think television is a great invention which is of great significance to the evolution of human society.

Learning from Experience
There has been much talk recently about whether we should learn from books or we should learn from experience. Some people think that learning from experience is more important while others hold the different opinions. Personally, I side with the former, in the belief that experience is the best teacher.
Admittedly, learning from books, as advocated by many, has its active role to play in our academic life. It can put us in touch with the great minds and arm our heads with massive knowledge.
However, there are numerous merits for learning from experience，too. First things first, experience is the source of knowledge and understanding as well as meaning. Nowhere can the importance of learning from experience be described so vividly and accurately as in the old saying- “Nothing ever becomes real till it is experienced”. Take the human progress as an illustration. Dating back to hundreds of thousands years ago, we human beings were utterly ignorant. But by incessant practices, our ancestors cumulated massive experience, from which they acquired a great amount of knowledge, transforming our world from a primitive society into a highly-developed one. Second, unlike the theories recorded in books, experiences can apply to practical use. When we are at work, what we need is the experience of practical application instead of the abstract theories in our books.
Taking all these into account, we can draw a conclusion that learning from experience is more important than learning from books. Always remember the old saying given by Einstein——“The only source of knowledge is experience. ”

Private cars should not be encouraged.
The number of private cars is on the rise in our country. some people think that private cars should be encouraged. others argue that private cars should not be encouraged. i think that too many private cars may create endless problems though they bring much convenience and comfort.
First, cars often produce air pollution and fill the cities with unbearable noises. second, most of the important cities in the world suffer from traffic congestion. in fact any advantage gained in comfort is often cancelled out in city by the frustration caused by traffic jams, endless queues of cars crawling bumper to bumper through all the main streets. third, to own a private car in china will not only cost you a fortune, but also bring you all kinds of trouble: getting a license plate, keeping the machine in good maintenance, finding a parking place at night, etc. what is worse, cars are the main cause of traffic accidents.
All over the world thousands upon thousands of people are killed or injured ever y year. traffic accidents caused by cars not only bring deaths and injury, but also make people suffer mentally and physically. in addition, our country has a very large population. if everyone had a car, all roads would be crowded with cars!
Therefore, i think the number of private cars should be limited. we should try t
o find a safer means of transport that will bring joy and comfort rather than in
jury and death.

My view on money
In modern society it seems impossible to live without money. for instance, a country needs money to develop its economy and to raise people’s living standards.
For a person suffering from poverty or a serious disease, he has to go hungry or
to wait to die. money is even regarded as a symbol of wealth and status. as a p
roverb goes, “money makes the mare go.”
Different people have different attitudes toward money. some think of money as the most important thing in the world. they may try all means, such as gambling and cheating, to make more and more money. they believe that money can bring them everything such as fancy cars, luxurious houses, expensive furniture and beautiful lovers. some people, however, think that there are things more important than money, such as good health, happiness and achievements. they devote themselves to their careers. they earn money by hard work.it seems to me that money is very important. with lots of money we can live comfortably. but i don’t think it is allpowerful. there are still things like friendship and love more valuable than money. there are also certain things that money cannot buy, such as health, youth and happiness. for a millionaire suffering from serious cancer, money cannot serve its purpose. money is only a medium of exchange, a symbol of our work or achievement. therefore, we should earn money by honest means. only when money is obtained by hard work can it make us really happy.
