I think animal testing is a terrible idea; they get all nervous and give the wrong answers. - Author Unknown Well, not all sorts of animal testing is funny as is seen in the quote mentioned above. Animal testing in cosmetic industry is a serious issue. When was the last time you used that atrociously expensive lip color on your lips with a feeling of guilt? Probably never! Animal testing in cosmetic industry is one of the most ignored factors and many women may not even be aware about the kind of tests, animals have to undergo, so that women can procure that perfect shade of red. Animal testing is the use of animals for the process of scientific experimentation, which is a common practice in the cosmetic industry. This subject remains to be one of the highly controversial subjects seen today. While leading companies in the cosmetic industry use animals for testing, animal rights activists' strongly oppose the same. Here's a look at some important factors connected with animal testing in the cosmetic industry. Animal Testing in Cosmetic Industry: The debate continues solely due to the fact that animals are being treated cruelly only for the sake of a few cosmetics. Did you know, the mascara you use can cause blindness to the animals during the process of testing? Animal testing in the cosmetic industry has been used for thousands of years but today, due to the efforts of animal activist groups; alternative measures are being developed for the same, without the use of animals. Animal testing in the cosmetic industry is especially done for make up and soaps. Rabbits are used largely for such processes to know the effect that is felt by the animal upon the application of the cosmetics. Guinea pigs are used to test sunscreen products. This is done to know about the various reactions and allergies that may be caused by the products. Apart from this, a large number of rats and mice are also used for testing. Mice are most preferred due to their size and also because they are available at a relatively low cost. Dogs are used for biomedical research whereas cats are used for neurological research. It is not only these groups of animals, but monkeys, are also imported into the U.S. for carrying out tests in the laboratory. There are certain laboratories that raise flies and worms. Animals have to suffer a lot of pain due to animal testing in the cosmetic industry. Although there have been arguments that animals do not really 'feel' pain to a large extent as humans do, animal activists argue these are indeed harmful and cruel ways to test products. Many animals end up suffering from injuries due to such testing in the cosmetic industry. For example: Rabbits are known to suffer from eye irritancy due to the testing of various cosmetics. So, is it really fair we spend exorbitant amounts on cosmetics to beautify our looks at the cost of the health of these innocent beings? Well, there are many cosmetic industries that claim to sell products, which are not tested on animals. Brands such as Avon and Clinique have made their stance clear by using alternative methods to animal testing. Aveda and Estee Lauder also avoid animal testing for their various products. The sad story about the authenticity about such claims remains in the fact that many statements are hardly genuine. Some companies do not really stick to the facts and distort the truth.
英语辩论赛 话题：当代社会男人压力大还是女人压力大 主持：主持词：Good morning everyone, today, we will bring you a small but brilliant debate. I hope all of you would enjoy the time.（介绍来宾）The judges of today's debate are our teacher and everybody here! Welcome! The topic for our debate today is "whether the pressure of men is more than women?" First please let me introduce the contestants of both sides. Those on the pros are Liu Junyi and me. Those on the cons are Gao Tianli and Lei Feiyan. As everybody is ready now, here starts the debate.

关于英语辩论赛的技巧 英语辩论赛的技巧：多用反问句 在进行比赛的时候，可以多用一些反问句来增加气势，让对方觉得你准备充足，如经常用到Don't you think that。 英语辩论赛的技巧：语句要尽量简短 在英语辩论赛的时候尽量要以短小、简短的句子为主，用词要简单，道理浅显，别人一听就知道你在说的话语，而不是要想半天才明白你在说什么，如可以说you are bad，就尽量不要说you are not good。 英语辩论赛的技巧：要围绕主题 有些参加英语辩论赛的朋友，很多时候不知不觉在说的过程中就偏离了主题，其实这个对于英语辩论赛来说是很分的，一定切记要围绕主题，要有好心态，不要太心急。 英语辩论赛的技巧：保持微笑 每次站起来的时候要先微笑，过两秒再进行辩论。脸上保持微笑，这样会表示自己充满自信，也可以放松自己，同时给辩论对方一种气势，造成对方一定的心理压力。 英语辩论赛的技巧：语速要慢 记得你这个是英语辩论赛，全程是用英语进行的，你的对手在你说话快的程度可能会听得到明白你在说话，但大部分听众对于你说得快的情况就会不知道你在说什么，这样就是失去辩论的意义。 辩论赛技巧： 1、打乱阵脚：组织有序进攻，打乱对方的阵脚，使之兵未败而阵先乱，岂有不败之理? 2、直击底线。有意识地对对方底线全力猛攻，使其自我动摇，无力接济，仅有招架之功，却无还手之力，处于被动境地。 3、时间把握：即从严把握本方时间，有意启导、引导对方在无意识中把规定时间及早耗尽，以造成缺席审判的情势，这对本方极为有利。 4、节奏把握：自由辩论的时间不长，但是由于争锋剧烈，对抗性强，故往往呈现出很强的快节奏。一般而言，一强到底，一胜到底的队伍不多，这就需要有韧劲和力量持久才能取胜。故有经验的辩论队往往是先弱后强，欲擒故纵。其利在于先让对方强，以观察其底气，辨别其优劣，在制伏它。 5、避锋折锐：针锋相对，往往会陷于对峙和僵持。你针尖我麦芒，你推我搡，既不利于取胜，现场效果也不好。故有经验的辩论队往往不正面迎击，而是闪避一旁，轻轻折断其锋锐。这种闪避不是回避问题，而是巧用智力，或侧击、或高压、或机智、或幽默，巧击要害，巧借场上效果来使对方退却。简言之，即以大智大巧而对，不以表面热闹、直硬相拼见高低。 大家一定要记得上面所说的几点，并且多点练习就好。
& Are interpersonal relationships more important than one’s practical ability to a successful career 介绍环节 正方：Good morning, everyone we are the objective part. I am debater 1 I am debater 2 。。。。 . I am debater 3 。。。。 . I am debater4 。。。。 . ` 反方：We are the negative part. I am debater 1 。。。 I am debater 2 。。。。 .I am debater 3 。。。。 . I am debater4 。。。。 . !
立论环节（） 正方立论Hello everybody! As is known to all , The 21st century is the century of talents’ ou tbreak. It is a highly competitive age. but if you want to obtain a successful career, it relays on not only the practical ability of outstanding individuals, but also good relationships. Therefore, our view is that relationship is more important than the practical ability for a successful the enterprise, a top staff should know how to handle interpersonal relationships, and has harmonious relations with colleagues, if he have not good interpersonal relationships, I don’t think he will be able to improve his ability or achieve success. So that our sides insist on that relationships are more important for success. ' 反方立论: Hello everyone! Today's opportunity to come to grips with so many friends and this undoubtedly superior personal quality and ability is a promotion of opportunity. We think that an individual career success, personal ability is more important than relationships. We think: an individual career success, by strength, no strength, interpersonal and how
Oral Test Form: Debate Time: 5 minutes (minimum) Directions: In this part, two students work together to debate on one of the following issues. Procedures: 1) Each candidate gives an opening statement to illustrate your viewpoint clearly. (1 minute each) 2) Two candidates debate on the issue by asking and responding to the opponent for more details. Each candidate should have an adequate background of the positions and arguments that you will be proposing. (3-4minutes) 3) Each candidate gives a final conclusive argument/statement at the end of the debate. (1 minute) 1.Examination is a common means to evaluate a student’s academic achievement. But some people think universities should assess students by other ways. Candidate 1: Examinations do more harm than good. Candidate 2: Examinations do more good than harm. Statement: In my opinion I think examination does more good to the recent situation. As we can see , the exam is a common way to evaluate a student, teacher and others. Why it is commonly used not only at home but also at aboard? The reasons are as follows. First, it is the easiest way up to now. you can’t find a better way now. you can judge a person in a short time. It only need two or three hours. Second, it is the fairest way. The candidate have the same access to the test, they have the same time to prepare the exam, in case of some people get in from the back door. What’s more, so many talented was selected by the exam in china, for example , hujitao a student of tinghua university. Free debating: First of all , I want to say that , if there isn’t a exam , what will you do ? you can almost get nothing after a semester, because you don’t have to take a exam, so you don’t have to remember and practice, which is not good for a student to rise their ability. We work on the subject for a semester, exam is the most efficient way to test the students who really paid much effort. Second , the exam do make much pressure to the students , but if their do not have pressure , how can the students make program? Sum up: To sum up, I still hold the point that the exam does more good than harm. All coins in the word has two sides, I do agree some point of you, but as you can see , in current days , this is the most scientific way ,not only from time or space , exam is still a way that can operate, you can’t come up with a better idea except this.. As for some point you just mentioned. I don’t agree. For ……….. So I still a defender of my idea 2.Which is more important for you in your life: knowledge from books you read, or personal experiences in reality? Candidate 1: Knowledge from books is more important than experiences. Candidate 2: Experiences is more important than knowledge from books. 开头：In my opinion I think【Experiences is more important than knowledge from books.】…………A s we can see 1.All books are in a good order, they are ordered by chapters. This could make your brain a computer, you just think in a fixed way. You will don’t have your own idea. 2.Almost all the company offer few salary to the newly graduate students, as time goes by, the boss will pay more the worker. Why they can get more payment? the experience played a very important role. 3.What’s more , all the books is based on the experience. If one don’t have much expe rience , I guess there is no possibility that he can make a book. Let us see some of you relatives , even they are not well educated , they may only know few word , they even cant read, but they still make money. Sometimes they even make more than the one who get educated. What’s more , all the book are not all right at all . some are even wrong. If you just take in , and have no experience, you may make wrong. And some situation are not for your case, you have to experience and get a new way of yourself. Last , if you only read books and never practice , the effort is in vain. A man can live on his own experience , but can’t live on books.

辩论稿（全部英语） 1.正方一辩：Are interpersonal relationship more important than one’s practical ability to a successful career Dear Mr President, Friends of the other debate, my friends: Hello everybody! As is known to all , The 21st century is the century of talents’ outbreak. It is a highly competitive age. but if you want to obtain a successful career, it relys on not only the practical ability of outstanding individuals, but also good relationships.

First, as the development of the times, everyone should be raised to their real ability, but the single person's capacity is limited. A person's success, 85% attributed to his personal connections. Seemingly fortune to come, in fact, mostly the result of hard work,contacts. Second, we live in a certain social group among the people.
