big funeral is too late
dear editor:
grandma li was my neighbor, who died last month. the old lady had three sons. all of them had grown up and got married, but none of them wanted to take care of her. they let her live in a small dark room. they gave her little food. when she got ill, they refused to take her to hospital.
but to my surprise, the old lady’s sons spent a lot of money on her funeral. the funeral lasted several days, and scores of cars and trucks were used on the day when the old lady was buried.
what is the use of such a big funeral for the old lady? it is too late for her. we should take care of old parent s while they are alive instead of spending so much money on them when they are dead.

15.视频游戏video games
video games have become very popular in recent years. wherever you go, you can see youngsters or even adults indulged in the games. when they play the games in clubs, stores, or homes, they concentrate all their attention on them, with their hands busy operating. obviously, video games give them great wonderful entertainment. they bring great pleasure to youngsters, train them to respond quickly, stimulate their imagination and interest in electronics and computer science. in short, video games play a good part in the development of youngsters intelligence.
just as a coin has two sides, video games have also some disadvantage. some young people especially school children, spend too much time playing them, which would do harem to their health and eyes and affect their school achievements. only if one has enough self-control, can one benefit from video games.
16.电影让位tvfilm is giving way to tv
there are fewer film-goers now than before. the number of tv-watchers has been increasing. in 1975, there were only 5,000 tv-watchers and in 1985, the number increased 20 times. the increase is due to the development of tv industry. with the development of economy, people are richer than before and many families can afford to buy color tv sets. people would prefer to stay at home to watch tv rather than go out to see a film.
although film is giving way to tv, there are still some people who like watching films not only because good films are not shown on tv but because film has its own advantage.
17.城市绿化城市绿色的状况;绿化的好处(如:清洁空气,美化城市,改善
recent efforts toward the greening of our cities have achieved much, although the results are still far from satisfactory. in recent years many trees have been planted in the cities and much care has been taken of the planted trees. in spite of all this, the greening process is relatively slow compared with cities in many other countries. for example, the green space available on average to each shanghai citizen is only 0.4 mu while every londoner has more than 20 mu.
we can benefit much from making our cities greener by planting trees. first, trees absorb carbon dioxide to produce oxygen which is essential to the health of human beings. second, trees and other greenery make our cities more beautiful. third, trees can also improve the climate of the cities.
since we can get so much from making our cities greener, we should spare no effort to do that. we should plant more trees and take better care of them. we also should not cut down the trees. in a word, we should do everything to add to the greening of our cities.
18.英语学习你在
to a chinese, the task of learning english well is not easy. so i, like many other english learners, have met with difficulties in learning english during the past seven years. but i managed to overcome them and made much progress.
the spelling and meaning of words can be said to be the first difficulty i met as a beginner. but i found our my own way to deal with them. as to spelling, i never copied a new work again and again to remember it, but tried to find its relevance to the sound. in fact, as long as i can read the word out, i can write it out. as to the meaning, i rarely recite its chinese translation but often put the word into the sentence to learn its meaning. moreover, if you use a word quite often, its spelling and meaning will be no problem. after all, we are learning english in order to use it.
grammar and idioms may be another difficulty. but i have also got over it. i have not read lots of grammar books. but i spent much time reading the articles written by native speakers or specialists in english. by doing so, i came to gain “a sense of english language”. i began to gain a feel for which sentences are “good english” and which are not.
finally, i want to say that overcoming all these difficulties requires perseverance. in the past seven years i spent at least an hour on english each day. i believe this is an important reason why i am able to make progress in learning english.

23.喜欢读报纸为什么我喜欢读报纸
why i like to read newspaper
the newspaper is one of the many mediums of carrying information to us. no wonder people often say: “ even without stepping out of my house, i am well-informed of al that has been happening in the world.”
we get all kinds of news from newspapers. newspapers can tell us about various events, past and future, domestic and foreign. besides, they can teach us a lot of useful things. in fact, everyone can find something he wants from newspapers, and everyone enjoys reading them everyday.
reading newspapers can widen our scope of knowledge. not only they help us improve our reading ability but they can help us enhance our ideology. because of all these benefits, i like reading newspapers.
my opinion of today’s education
i think one of the main problems with today’s education is that too much emphasis is placed on test scores. it has become the most important criterion for college enrollment. a student, however creative and intelligent, will not be admitted into a college if his total scores are just one point less than required. it is also one of the crucial factors either in job assignment or in employment competitions.
the competition for high scores among students becomes intense. students find themselves concentrating more on strategies to achieve high scores than on acquiring knowledge. they will play truant of some subsidiary course, skip over the substance which will not be tested on, even pump teachers for hints on upcoming exams. teachers are apt to give their students high scores. as their job is judged mainly by the students’ performance in terms of scores, some teachers tend to set easy papers to test their students on or narrow down the scope of the exam. some teachers even leak “accidentally” the exam questions or lower their criterion of scoring.
as a
result, the competition for high scores becomes so intense that it actually defeats academic goals of education.
24.科学的作用科学的作用和教学在现代生活
the role of science and teaching in modern life
human life can not continue without science and technology. in fact, the advancement of human society has always been depended upon the development of science and technology. as a result, the life we are living now is more civilized than that of our forefathers’.
the development of science and technology has brought about many changes in people’s life. for example, the invention of television has opened a new era for mankind. we can now view events which are happening thousands of miles away.
science and technology also play and important role in our socialist construction. our socialist construction is just like a sky scraper, while science and technology are its base. without the base, the skyscraper
cannot be built. therefore, we should try our best to further develop science and technology so as to lay a more solid base for our socialist construction.
relationship between customer and seller
the relationship between customer and seller is now becoming more and more important in people’s life, with the rapid development of market economy. a good relationship between customer and seller can make buying and selling a happy experience and benefit both buyer and customer.
a good relationship between customer and seller can only exist on the basis of honesty and respect. the seller should be honest to customers introducing the actual advantages and disadvantages of his goods. he mustn’t deceive customers, charge too high a price or serve them indifferently. on the part of the customer, he should also respect the seller and be reasonable. some customers think they are “god” of the sellers, so they often behave coldly or even rudely to them. that’s not good manners. as long as one busy of his own will, both sides are equal.
sometimes problems and mistakes are inevitable. for example, the seller may forget to give his customer the change. if he doesn’t do it on purpose, the customer should be considerate and excuse him. on the basis of honesty and kindness, problems can easily be solved.,
25.教育市场education and the market
as the socialist market economy in china is expanding, education is becoming more closely related to the market. in a broad sense, all the modern society is based on the market economy. as part of the society, education cannot be separated from the market. on the contrary, the former has much to do with the latter. therefore, it is general believed that educaiton serves the market and the latter, in turn, supports the former.
the reason for education to enter the market is obvious. as a developing country, china is not likely to invest a huge amount of money in education in the near future. education has to turn to the market to find its own way. it is important to note that teacher’s way of production is to teach and train students. the students’ knowledge is an invisible product. in addition, their services to students and society are valuable. so education has to be run in accordance with the law value to realize the aim that students pay for their education and find jobs for themselves rather than being assigned jobs by the states.
personally, i think education is an independent industry between students and the talent market. it is the indispensable link between the two. so i can conclude that since science and technology and talented people can enter the market, it is a matter of course for

b. 加入世贸组织,也会带来一些不利影响,如
c. 对中国加入世贸组织感到欣喜之余,我们也应看到随之而来的一些挑战。
例文: what will happenif china enters
every chinese is looking forward to china“s entry into wto, widely seen as a blessing and a promise of prosperity. it seems to be so at first sight, however, on reflection, we“re convinced that it“s just another coin with two sides.
on the one hand, both the nation and people will benefit greatly from china“s entry into wto. shut out of wto, china dused to be deprived of equal trade opportunities and was placed at a distinct disadvantage in world trade. this situation will change if china enters
on the other hand, the entry will impose some negative effects on china. state-owned enterprises in china are undergoing great difficulties, which will be more acute with the flow of foreign competitors into china.
in short, excited about the advantages caused by the entry, we should not lose sight of the severe challenges posed by it.
29.快餐快餐在中国十分流行,它是现代快节奏社会的最佳反映。
a. 快餐受欢迎有两条原因。
b. 然而,从营养角度来讲,快餐却差强人意。
c. 对快餐还是以偶尔品尝为宜。
例文: fast food
fast food is becoming more popular in china, especially among children and teenagers. today, it“s certainly difficult to think of any other single thing that represents the fast pace of modern society as powerfully as fast food.
there are several reasons for its popularity. first, it is very convenient and saves a lot of time. the trends of modern society seem to all point to one ultimate goal —— saving time, and fast food well serves this purpose. you just go into a fast food restaurant, order your food, and your food is ready in no time. you can either eat it there or take it away. second, its popularity is also attributed to the clean and comfortable environment of fast food restaurants, the excellent service, and the guaranteed qualith of food.
however, in terms of nutrition, fast food is far from satisfactory. it usually does not compose a balanced diet and is low in nutritional value. thus, doctors suggest that people, especially children, eat fast food as little as possible. although cooking at home is time — consuming and the following washing-up tiresome, it offers healthy and delicious meals your body likes and needs. fast food is only a good choice when you are in a hurry and turn to it once in a while.
30.环保爷爷以卖上等
例文: preserving natural resources
through the changes in the ways of making a living in a family over several generations, the cartoon aims at sounding a warning against man“s wasteful use of natural resources and emphasizing the urgent need to preserve these resources.
ever since man appeared on the earth, man“s survival has been heavily relied on nature. almost everything we use in our everyday life comes from nature, ranging from the food we eat, the water we drink, to the wood which is turned into furiture. with the development of technology and population growth, the amount and range of materials used has increased at an alarming rate. however, natural resources are not inexhaustible. some reserves are already on the brink of exhaustion and there is no hope of replacing them. the widespread water shortage is an example in point. if man continued to squander natural resources with no thought for the future, the later generations would end up selling sand, as is the case in the cartoon, and the whole world would be in a mess.
time is running out. it is up to us to take effective measures before the situation gets out of hand.
