How Do students Spend Their Summer VacationsIn the past, summer vacations meant an escape from the academic life and a restoration to freedom. Most students enjoyed their rights of leisure to the ultimate extent. Summer vacation were made up of endless activities such as visiting friends, watching TV, fishing, touring and occasional help of housework of chores.However, the trend has changed. Currently, students are fully occupied during the summer vacation. Some are busy attending various skill training courses, trying to obtain a driving license, pass language competence tests, or challenge computer qualification tests, while others are busy seeking part-time jobs to experience an adult world. On the whole, they want to be well equipped for students to accumulate enough skills and experiences for a bright prospect but leisure-time cannot be ignored, even be omitted. Therefore, we’d better arrange summer vacations in a more flexible way.RecreationRecreations are an important part of people’s life. For example, after hours of attentive study, students feel like having a football game to relax their nerves. Workers, too, find it very satisfying to sit in front of a TV set for an hour or two when they come back from a day’s tiring work. Besides, recreations serve as a pleasing way for the retired people to pass their excessive time. Everywhere you go, you will find that during their spare time, people are engaged in recreational activities of one kind or another.Generally speaking, there are two kinds of recreations: physical activities and intellectual activities. Physical activities, on the one hand, keep one fit and develop team spirit. Basketball is a n example. On the other hand, intellectual activities such as playing chess and reading novels can train one’s brains and provide temporary escape from one’s troubles.In my opinion, there should be a balance between the two forms of activities. This is because physical activities are necessary for good health while intellectual activities are beneficial to one’s mind. Therefore, in order to make his life enjoyable, one should go in for both kinds of pastimes.A Letter to Harvard University and Apply for Administration into the MBA ProgramDear Sirs,I graduated two years ago from the Department of International Trade at the University of International Business and Economics, the leading institution of business education in the people' s Republic of China. I am now applying for admission into the MBA program of your university next fall, that is, after I finish three years of being an employee in the branch company of SONY in Beijing.It is my great pleasure to have taken international trade as my major as China is expanding its trade with foreign countries. I earnestly hope I will have an opportunity to pursue graduate study at Harvard University which has a high reputation for its business education.My TOEFL score is 650 and GRE is 2038.Please send me an application form and information regarding your scholarships and assistantships.Sincerely yours,Wang LiShopping Through the InternetRecently, many people have begun to try a new way of doing shopping through the Internet. Some people are quite confident of its future popularity. Their conclusion is based on the following reasons: First, more and more people will have their own computers and will have them connected with the Internet, which makes it possible for more people to take advantage of Internet to do shopping. Second, shopping through the Internet enables buyers to save some money and a lot of time. Considering its convenience, it seems that few people can resist it.Others, on the contrary, tend to think poorly of the new method. The biggest disadvantage of shopping through the Internet is that buyers can only see pictures of a product. They may, therefore, lose the pleasure of touching and trying things in a large supermarket or a luxurious shopping center. The limited scope of this business is the next important reason why they do not like it.Based on the above analysis, I think, with problems solved and services improved, this kink of shopping is definitely to be accepted by a greater number of Chinese in the near future.To Become a Postgraduate or an EmployeeSome seniors intend to study further after graduation. They want to acquire more knowledge, enlarge the scope of their major and then apply fully what they have learned. On the other hand, other students prefer to be an employee first. They want to make use of their knowledge and get their work experience. If they find their knowledge inadequate for their work after a perod of working time, they will decide to receive further education.Each student would have his own idea about becoming a postgraduate or to be an employee. As for me, what I choose depends on the situation or the opportunity I may face. If an ideal job is waving to me, I would not let it pass. If society needs students with high diploma, then I will have to take the exam to be a postgraduate.Fascinating ChinaChina, one of the cradles of human civilization, possesses so many treasures with Chinese characteristics that numerous foreign friends come to visit her.The first place to go to is, the Great Wall, which is the symbol of China and one of the seven wonders of the world. What’s more, it is said to be the only construction that can be seen from the outer space. In the imperial periods, it was used in defense of the dynasties. Since liberation, it has become a place of interest. There is a famous saying: “He who does not reach the Great Wall isn’t a true.”China is the home of pandas, an animal with only two colors, white and black, but very cute. It’s our national treasure, often functioning as a friendly diplomat. Terracotta warriors un earthed in Xi’an, a famous ancient city, were sculptured in Qin Dynasty, the first dynasty of China. Whenthe former U.S President Clinton came to China, he visited the terracotta warriors first. The above mentioned are just a wave of the sea. If you want to know more about the ancient nation, come and be our guest.What Music Do College Students LikeThe chart reveals that majority (83%) of students like pop music, which is in great contrast with only 5% of them favor classical music and 12% of them are fond of folk music.The reason for the popularity of the pop songs are its themes and melodies, which describe mostly emotions and daily life of young people. Besides, pop songs are usually easy to follow and meaningful to those young people.As far as I’m concerned, I prefer all kinds of music. When I feel stressed or exhausted after a day’s hard work, I often listen to light music, classical music or folk music to relax myself. When I feel sad, I’ll listen to some pop songs or rock music to encourage myself.My Favorite SportsI go in for a lot of sports in my spare time, among them are running, swimming and some ball games. Because of my heavy schedule, I can hardly go to play ball games very often. So most of the time I like going to swim with my friends.Swimming is considered as one of the most popular sports in the world. Many people like it because it is not so exhausting as running or playing basketball. But it can make people cool, relaxed and comfortable, especially in summer. Swimming in the cool water, taking deep breath, people may have a sense of refreshing. Besides, it can also make people energetic by providing an opportunity for people to get enough exercise. The last but not the least is that it has become more and more popular with people of all ages. That’s why all kinds of people, both the old and the young, can be found in the swimming pool during the summer time.There is no doubt that swimming is the best and most popular sport in summer. People can get entertainment and relaxation while they are in cool water. It makes people stronger, happier and more energetic.A Letter to The Minister of EducationDear Sir or Madam:I am a college student , coming from northwest China. I am writing this letter to state some educational problems in my hometown as well as in some other similar areas in the northwest.As far as I am concerned, the biggest problem concerning education is the lack of teaching staff. If a school cannot have enough good teachers, it may greatly influence the development of the students. Another problem, I think, is the poor teaching and learning conditions. Most schools cannot provide advanced facilities such as computers for teachers and students. Therefore, the teaching and studying methods tend to be out of date, which makes the whole region lagging farther behind other areas.As for organizing the volunteers in colleges and universities to go there and aid the teaching,I suggest that they go there regularly, at least twice a year. They should help the teachers get in formed of the latest information. Moreover, they should get systematical training first, in order to be efficient and experienced.Above all, I would be very grateful if you would pay attention to this issue and consider my suggestions.Faithfully yours,Zhang YuA Letter of ComplaintDear sir/madam,My name is Wang Ming. I am an ordinary/regular consumer of your shop. I venture to write to you about the service in your shop.The focus of the complaint is the cashier’s attitude. For one thing, one of your cashiers attempted to shortchange me. For another, the same thing has occurred twice in one month. Frankly speaking, for the first time, I haven’t taken notice of it. But yesterday I purchased several items totaling ￥38.2 and handed a ￥50 bill to a cashier, but she gave me only ￥10.2 change. Besides, she was not only very kind to me when I pointed out her mistake.All in all, there is still much room for improvement. I do hope this is the last time and she will learn a lesson from it. Thank you for your time and kind consideration.Faithfully yours,Wang MingNo Pains, No GainsNo great work can be accomplished without effort. We envy successful and famous men and imagine their prosperity and fame were due to some extremely good luck. But when we know their experiences, we find that it is long years’striving and persistent sffort that brought about their success.The key to success is diligence. Diligence gives everyone access to success. Many men have become great due to their hard work. Diligence can make a fool wise and a poor rich. Thus, diligence is very important.To do nothing is to bring ruin upon oneself. Idleness is the root of all evils. Many people love idleness. They eat delicious food, wear beautiful clothes, and waste time on pastimes. Such men don’t known how to study and work and never amount to anything during their life. To get fruitful results we must guard against idleness.How To Keep FitNothing is more valuable than health. It is the fountain of one’s future success. A healthy person can always be energetic and enjoy his life and achieve what he hopes for in his career. On the other hand, poor in health, a person can not achieve much success though he is wee-educated.Then, what should we do to maintain and enhance our health? There are many ways which help to build up our health. Firstly, we should keep a balanced diet and that is to say, we shouldnot have too much intake of animal fat, but more vegetables and fruits. Secondly, if one wants to keep fit, he must give up the habits that damage his health. Finally, regular physical exercise is essential for a healthy mind and body.In conclusion, if everyone can stick to what is mentioned above, one can always keep fit and pursue one’s career effectively.图表作文The Problem of populationAs is shown in the chart, in the last century, world population has increased dramatically, doubling in every-shortening cycles. In 1930, world population stood at 2 billion, and a brief 48 years later, it reached over 4 billion. But in 2001, it increased another 2 billion in less than half of 48 years. Population explosion has become a serious problem.Population growth has imposed enormous pressure on world food supplies, making it difficult to avoid hunger and starvation on a large scale. In addition to food shortage, the growing population poses a threat to the environment. Land resources are reducing very fast and raw materials are being consumed at an increasing rate. At the same time, overpopulation affects the quality of life due to the inadequate supply of land.It is clear that the problem of population needs careful attention. Facing the world population explosion in the near future, we must carry out the birth control program in order to save the mankind and save the world.。
