七.作文（1*10）
1. Where There Is a Will There Is a Way
It is widely believed that some people are born lucky, because they possess high intelligence. But high intelligence is not equal to success. No pains, no gains. Success is built upon tremendous amount of study, practice and devotion.
In fact, researches have evidence that diligence for one’s work is a key factory for success. Life is a struggle, just as the most striking part of Longfellow’s poem: “Be a hero in the strife.”Beethoven was a typical “hero in the strife”. As a deaf man, he went on working with his strong
will in the last year of his life, through he was not able to hear his own fine music. Marie Curie, a famous scientist, also has set a good example. In 1898, Marie found a new element in the pitchblende. In order to improve her discovery, Marie and her husband worked hard. At last they saw the dim blue light of new elemento9——radium. Her dream had come true.
Success comes from one _ percent inspiration and ninety _ nine percent perspiration. Please have a definite goal first. Hold fast to your will. The path to will may not be smooth and wide, even some sacrifices are needed, but hold on to the end, you will find there is no greater happiness than making your will come true.
2. How Should Parents Help Children to Be Independent?
Nowadays, there is a growing concern over such a phenomenon, that is, some parents take care of almost everything concerned with their children, including study, work and marriage. Some parents believe that this is love.
H owever, it is only to destroy children’s independence thoroughly.
For the future of the next generation, more efforts should be made by parents to help their children to be independent. The fundamental one is to cultivate the awareness, namely, the importance and necessity of being independent, which is supposed to begin from childhood. Children should be taught that no one can be stronger and more helpful than themselves in this world.
The quality of independence is so indispensable for us that parents had
better act as a tutor, not a dictator(独裁者). And only with parents' trust, can the next generation accumulate confidence step by step.
3. Can Students Skip Classes?
Early this year Yan Fan, a professor in China University of Political Science and Law, stirred a fierce debate. It happened that some students were absent in his selective course, which annoyed him and he flew into a rage and uttered some course. And in fact, some surveys indicate that nowadays more students skip classed.
Should students skip classes? There are two completely opposite opinions. Those who stand for skipping classed are of the belief that students are adults, and they should decide for themselves whether to attend class or not. It is not up to the professor to make that decision. In addition, students can contribute to improving the quality of college education by going to informative, popular classed and leaving less successful ones. This helps themselves, the professors and the universities. Students shouldn’t be stripped of this right. On the other hand, those who are against skipping classes hold that classroom order is a basic requirement for teaching to take place. Skipping classes undermines the foundations of university education. So far as I am concerned, I support skipping classed with conditions. Students can be allowed to skip classed for certain class hours, for example, twice. This practice can enable teachers to improve teaching quality, because when teachers present wonderful lectures, no students are willing to be absent. So we can use students’ absence as an indication of whether teachers are offering excellent lectures.。
