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。
In junior high school, one of my classmates, Eithan, was addicted to TV. This boy simply knew everything about such pop shows as Who's the Boss?
Then one day Ethan's mother made him an after in order to draw him back to his school subiects. She promised that she would give him $200 if he could go a full month without watching any TV. None of us thought Ethan could do it, but he did quit TV. His mom paid him $200. He went out and bought a TV, the biggest he could find.
In recent years, hundreds of schools have carried out experiments with paying kids with cash for showing up or getting good grades. All school kids admire this trend. But it upsets adults. Teachers say that we are rewarding kids for doing what they should be doing of their own will.Psychologists warn that money can actually make lies perform worse by making the act of learning cheap. The debate has become a typical hattle over why our kids are not learning at the rate they should be despite decades of reforms and budget increases.
[写作内容]1. 以约30词概括上文的主要内容。2. 以约120词对用金钱鼓励孩子学习的现象进行议论，内容包括：(1)你对用金钱鼓励孩子学习的看法；(2)你的父母（或其他亲人）是如何鼓励你学习的；(3)你认为怎样才能更好地鼓励孩子学习。
[写作要求]1. 作文中可以使用亲身经历或虚构的故事，也可以参照阅读材料的内容，但不得
直接引用原文中的句子。2. 作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。
[评分标准]概括准确，语言规范，内容合适，语篇连贯。
The Chinese government has decided to ban smoking in public places across the country.This decision, which aims to make all indoor public places smoke-free, will come into effect from the first day of 2011. To this end, no-smoking signs will be put up in all indoor public places. Currently China has about 350 million smokers, among whom 75% are men and 25% are women. Around 540 million people are affected by second-hand smoke, which causes 100,000 deaths per year.
The Chinese government has decided that smoking be banned in indoor public places all over the country. This decision, which will be carried out from January 1, 2011, aims to bring a complete smoke-free indoor environment. In order to achieve this goal, no-smoking signs will be put up in all indoor public places. Statistics show that China has approximately 350,000,000 smokers, among whom 75 percent are men and 25 percent are women. Around 540 million people are affected by second-hand somke, causing 100,000 deaths a year.
Ethan's mother failed to stop Ethan watching TV by rewarding him with cash.This kind of action is common, and even becomes a trend, which is concerned by many adults.
From where I stand, I am not in favor of encouraging kids with cash just because they have got good marks.
My parents used to encourage me like this. Whenever I made progress in my studies, they bought me my favourite books, which not only made me motivated to learn, but also helped me get along well with my studies.
To get kids motivated to learn, I think we should not treat every child in the same way. To some students, oral praise is essential. Don’t save the praise for only the top score. If possible, involve other adults in praising them. However, this method may not work well with other kids. Maybe what is more important to them is to watch a movie or go on a trip together with their parents. It just depends.

假设你将参加某英语杂志社开展的一次征文活动，征文的内容要求你在电视、手机（cell）和网络三者中，放弃其中一个并陈述理由。请你以"Which would you give up: TV, cell, or
Web?" 为题，写一篇英语短文。
We are now living in an information age, in which TV, cells and the Web are widely used. It seems that many people cannot enjoy themselves without them.
However, if I had to give up one of them, I would turn off the TV rather than switch off my cell or cut off the Internet. I could do without TV because few shows take my fancy and there’re too many commercials. Besides, most programs on TV are also available elsewhere.
As for cells and the Web, they are more necessary to me. I need a cell to keep in touch with my friends and family, and almost all information can be gathered on the Internet.

In the morning class the next day, the English teacher came to me while I was reading the text aloud as other students. After listening to me for a while, she gave me a big smile and said she liked my voice very much. The smile shone on the whole day and the following days. A week later, I voulunteered to take charge of English study in my class.
Thanks to the comforting smile in my first morning class, I began to be confident.

请根据下面提示，写一篇短文。词数不少于50。In your spoken English class, your teacher shows you the following picture. You are asked to describe the picture and explain how you understand it.
Last weekend, I helped my grandparents prepare their trip to Beidaihe. On Saturday morning, together with my grandparents, I searched the Internet for the train schedule, the weather in Beidaile, and some hotel information. In the afternoon, I went to the train station and managed to buy two tickets for my grandparents although there was a long queue. After dinner, I packed into the suitcase the things my grandparents reed, such as clothes, glasses, an umbrella, and a map. The next morning, I went to the station to see them off. Waving goodbye to them on the platform, I felt happy for them and wished them a safe journey.
In the picture, between two closely-located buildings grows a big tree. Unlike most trees, this one bends in the middle, struggling all the way up to get more sunshine. The picture reminds me
of those who succeed in unfavorable conditions. Faced with difficulties, they never give up but try their best to find a way out. Life can be hard. But if we have the courage and determination, we will finally get the sunshine we want as the tree in the picture does.

假设你是李华，福建省某中学高中学生，今年暑假将前往澳大利亚参加主题为"WATER FOR LIFE"的交流活动。请你以参访代表的身份，根据以下图片提示，用英语写一篇发言稿。参考词汇：短缺shortage；资源resource
Ladies and gentlemen,
Good morning. I’m Li Hua from Fujian, China. It’s my great honor to be here to say something about the global water shortage and ways of dealing with it.
As we know, the global water shortage is becoming increasingly severe mainly due to global
warming, environmental pollution and the ever-increasing population. Therefore, it’s high time we did something about it.
Firstly, an effective way, I think, is to reserve water in a scientific way for future use. Secondly, new methods need to be developed to use the existing water resources, for example, turning sea water into fresh water. Thirdly, we must stop water opllution by law. Last but not least, it’s everyone’s responsibility to make good use of water, such as recycling and saving water in our daily life.
In conclusion, people around the world should be aware of the real situation of water shortage, protect the present water resources and explore potential ones scientifically.
That’s all. Thank you.
