【3】 On the one hand, well-designed PPT slides can definitely enhance teaching efficiency because all the knowledge has been prepared beforehand and teachers don’t need to spend time writing on the blackboard. 【4】 What's more, many delicately designed PPT slides are quite attractive to students. 【5】 On the other hand,we have to admit there are some potential problems with the overuse of PPT in class. 【6】 For example, many teachers don't know how to teach without PPT because of their heavy reliance on PPT.【7】 In addition, there is a possibility that some students are distracted by the decorations or animation of PPT slides, which leads to lower learning efficiency.【8】In brief, teachers are supposed to take both the teaching efficiency and students' learning outcome into consideration, and make a good balance between them. 【9】 After all, all the use of PPT should respect the educational principles and students' real,needs.精彩点评【1】严格按照题目要求中给出的提示语开篇点题。

You are required to write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.共享单车高分范文：My View on Shared BikesShared bikes in different colors have sprung up on the city streetsalmost overnight. Despite the convenience they offer, it is highly unlikely that shared bikes will be the most popular means oftransportation in the near future.Firstly, equipped with GPS and digital locks, shared bikes are onlyavailable to the target customers. That means users must have asmartphone, download apps and know how to unlock the bikes. Moreover,bike-sharing thrives only in traffic-clogged cities where it is the best method to solve the problem of the last-mile transportation.Secondly, as shared bikes pour into or out of populated regions, they,problems. Thirdly, hugelike cars,can inevitably create new trafficinvestments must be used to maintain services, update apps and expandoperation.

Thefamous remark reminds us that the knowledge we have learnt from booksis of great importance, while what’s more important is to put it intopractice.As we all know, most people acquire knowledge about science,society and so on from books and the Internet. Later they start toknow the world in general and can deal with some problems properlyand reasonably. However, as an old saying goes, “Practice is the solecriterion for testing t ruth.” truth.” No matter h owhow brilliant the knowledge is, it must be applied to practice so as to examine whether it works or not.In a word, what we should pay attention to is not only thecomprehension of knowledge but also the application of it.

I firmly hold the view that encouragement enables us to conquer them. Just as the saying goes, “A word of encouragementduring a failure is worth more than an hour of praise after success.”First of all, encouragement is the best means to make us feel betterwhen we are dismayed. When we are in bad mood, an encouraging word can warm us up, motivate us and help us make it through the day. What’smore, encouragement can give us courage and confidence to fightagainst hardships and motivate us to move on. When we are confrontedwith tough tasks, encouragement helps us build up our confidence and drives us out of the adverse circumstances we are stuck in.Beyond our imagination, encouragement arouses magical power whichpushes us forward. I believe all difficulties that we face in our liveswill be overcome with the encouragement from others. Therefore, fromnow on, we should express our encouragement to others generously and then we can feel that positive energy is all around us.3.四级翻译4篇 Topic 1 社群学习在消费升级（upgrade ）下的新时代，在线教育市场变得越来越成熟，付费社群模式正引领潮流。
