科技化生活的好坏 It is suggested that everyone should own a car, TV and fridge. Do you think disadvantages of this development to the society outweigh the advantages?
These days, the wide range use of technology-driven facilities such as cars, TVs and fridges has had a profound impact on our daily life. As far as I am concerned, it is analytical to encourage people to use them which can bring substantial benefits to the users. My reasons would be expounded as below.
New technology improves the convenience of the public, because it focuses on simplifying life by reducing the time and steps between users and their final goals. For example, the personal independence derived from having a car is immense. People can work, shop and pursue leisure activities flexibly, without being subject to the fixed arrival-and-departure schedules of public transportation systems or expensive on-call cab services. Similarly, under the function of a fridge to preserve and keep food fre 登录查看全部内容

先进的通讯和运输技术带来的利弊 Today, people can work and live in anywhere they want, because of the improvement of communication technology and transport. Do advantages of this development outweigh the disadvantages?
At the present time, new technologies have enlarged the extension for people’s living and working. As far as I am concerned, the risks brought by this trend override its benefits, and my reasons will be expounded as below.
Admittedly, the telecommunication allows people to work at home which is beneficial, in many aspects. For example, it brings great convenience to commuters, because telework saves an employee’s time that could have been spent on commuting over distance, such as the driving router between office building in downtown area and far-flung home in suburb, as well as keeping them from wasting time on standing in a line in bus station, or being stuck in traffic rush hours. Besides, it is by telecommuting that the costs and overheads for running a company, including office renting, water and electricity consuming, and 登录查看全部内容

太空探索的利弊 Space travel to the moon is considered as “a step of mankind.” But some people think that space travel has made little difference on people’s lives today. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Space exploration, one of the most controversial issues of today, has expanded human frontier of science. Though, some people advocate the act for it has done substantial improvement in human life, others disregard it as a waste of huge amount of money. This essay would substantiate the ways how exploring the space has been in favor of human race.
Firstly, the most crucial out of all advantages of space travel is that it offers mankind with obstacles. Challenges always fascinate men to overcome it, and this in turn leads to many new discoveries and innovations. For instance, it was this curiosity which led man to land his feet on moon. Next, the information that man acquired out of his achievements to explore space is limitless. The research into the sun and the stars helped u 登录查看全部内容

制定课程靠政府还是老师The subjects and lesson contents are decided by the authorities such as the government. Some people argue that teachers should make the choice. Do you agree or disagree?
Who should shoulder the responsibilities of determining the contents of subjects of school education? The government or the preceptors? This issue has been a heated social issue in debate. Personally, I believe the combination of them might be the best solution, and reasons will be expounded as below.
Firstly, the government should make efforts in popularization of basic education, which ensures every child can grow up into a regular citizen. For example, it is very wise that the central government forces every elementary school to teach some compulsory subjects like official languages and state’s laws, for the general knowledge can shape all children of new generations, especially the ones in remote or religious areas, into standard people with common languages skills to read news and data in media, as well as law-abiding consciousness to distinguish the right from the wrong. On the contrary, a single teacher is untruthful. In many cases, a local teacher in a religious region prefers instill 登录查看全部内容

学理科的学生人数减少的原因 Not enough students choose science subjects in university in many countries. What're the reasons for this problem? What're the effects on the society?
Nowadays, there are fewer applications of high school graduates for science subjects in universities and colleges. In this essay, I will explore possible reasons and impacts of this trend on the society.
Many reasons can explain why the population of students majoring science is shrinking. Firstly, Scientific subjects cost too much, and computer science is a typical example. High tuition fees, extra investment in devices and software for studying, in conjunction with the fierce competition in fellowships, make this subject too expensive to be affordable to many youngsters. Secondly, compared with arts subjects, the knowledge of Math, Physics and Chemistry are publicly hard to learn, because they contain t 登录查看全部内容

学习历史的必要性 Some people consider that history is of little or no use to us. Others believe that studying history helps us to know the present. Discuss these views and give your own opinion.
These days, the passion of a fraction of people in studying history is declining, because they believe such knowledge is out of mode and impractical in modern society. In my view, this contention overlooks the irreplaceable values of learning history, and my reasons will be listed as below.
Admittedly, the information in history is too theoretical, outmoded, abstract and purposeless to be applied in daily life of children. For example, no matter how proficient children are in remembering historical stories and people, they still have no idea about answers of how to use computer and the Internet, how to deal with banking business, or skills of cooking and first aids. Therefore, to this extent, it is reasonable to give the priority to those life-related subjects over history, because the form courses like computer, health care and economy are the main way of equipping ch 登录查看全部内容

音乐课和体育课的重要性 Schools should teach children academic subjects which will be useful in their future careers. Subjects such as music and sports are not useful. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Currently, there is an argument that non-academic courses like music and sports should be cut off, because they have no serviceable values. Personally, this contention is indefensible and overpasses the positive impacts of these courses on the growth of children. My reasons will be explored as below.
Admittedly, in school education, academic courses should be given the priority over music and sports, because the former is practically more helpful and beneficial. For example, by studying math, a typical academic subject, a child can acquire basic skills of coping with numbers and calculation, as well as cultivate abilities of critical thinking and reasoning. That is to say, math plays a role of doorway for children’s further education, future career and daily life. In comparison, there are very limited pragmatic effects of non-academic subjects on children’s future employment. Obviously, no matter how well a student can play 登录查看全部内容

老年人不受尊敬的原因 In many countries, insufficient respect is shown to older people. What are the reasons and what problems does it cause to the society?
Currently, showing no respect to seniors has been a heated social issue in debate. I will present my own resolutions about the root reasons and social problems related to this phenomenon, in the following essay.
Firstly, there are two main reasons why the elder group gradually loses respect in the society today. For one thing, in eyes of the public, especially of the youth, older people are no more valuable and knowledgeable, because their minds could not keep pace with the development of new technologies. For example, in the pre-Internet age, older people, namely treasures of knowledge and life experience, always play an important role of life consultants or wise men, and can give useful advices and instructions to youngsters. However, nowadays people have been used to using 登录查看全部内容

城市化带来的问题/大城市的问题 The movement of people from agricultural areas to cities has become a major trend in recent years. What are the problems with this trend? Give your suggestions about how to solve it.
Rapid urbanization is the process of people migrating from rural areas to urban regions, which increases the scale of the cities to which they move. As far as I am concerned, this tendency goes with many risks, and correspondent resolutions will be also presented as below.
There are many major problems caused by rural-to-city migration, including the decline of living conditions, infrastructure challenges, social crimes, broken family structure, and economic recession in rural places. Firstly, a higher-level population density of urban areas causes overcrowding-related social issues, for example, individuals living in small spaces with several other people, the rise of slums, and rapidly rising rents for housing.
Secondly, the movement of people from rural areas to urban areas also puts a strain on a city's infrastructure. Roads and freeways become overcrowded as new construction struggles to keep up with the demand. Waiting time at emergency rooms can become a 登录查看全部内容

女性和男性是否擅长不同的工作 Some people think that men and women have different qualities. Therefore, some certain jobs are suitable for men and some jobs are suitable for women. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Nature has blessed both men and women with individual characters, which set them apart. All these disparate traits allow them to do different tasks according to their affinities. Due to this, some people assert that it would be best for both genders to engage themselves in those tasks which suit their personalities and skill sets. However, other refute that both are equal and can do each other’s job as efficiently and effectively as they can do their own. Therefore, let us analyze the task from both perspectives in order to arrive at a proper conclusion.
To begin with, it can be said that both males and females have their individual set of characteristics, which enables them to perform well in certain tasks. For example, women are considered exceptionally good at taking care of the household activities and bringing up the children, because most of the women are kind, loving and caring by nature. Similarly, men also have some special traits attac 登录查看全部内容

同辈压力对于年轻人的影响 Young people are often influenced in their behaviors and situations by others in the same age. This is called “peer pressures”. Do the disadvantages outweigh the advantages?
Peer pressure refers to the influence exerted by a peer group in promoting a person to alter his or her attitudes, values, or behaviors in order to conform to group norms. In my view, peers bring more negative than the positive impacts on a youngster, and my reasons would be expounded as below.
Individuality is removed. Actually, for the purpose of receiving the social acceptance, young people might consciously compel themselves to approve of and comply with ideas, views and behaviors of other peers, instead of obeying their inner hearts. One typical example is lifestyle. As living in groups, unconditionally catering to even-aged students and students around is the main way of young people to avoid being labeled as eccentrics, suc 登录查看全部内容

现代游戏VS传统游戏 Some people think modern games can help children to develop a wide range of skills, but others argue that traditional games can be much better for developing such skills. What is your opinion?
What kind of games should a child choose to play, modern games or traditional ones? Personally, In terms of contributions of games to enriching skills of children, I believe traditional games score higher in terms of overall performance, and my reasons will be expounded as below.
Admittedly, benefits stemming from modern games should not be ignored. Generally speaking, playing video games is an interactive process that stimulates the neural mechanism of children. By this way, the eye-hand coordination, reaction and decision-making ability can be improved. Many puzzle games also sharpen cognition capacities like calculating, interpreting, logic thinking and reasoning. In addition, another practical skill trained from playing online games is computer 登录查看全部内容

人们是否变的更独立 Some people think that in the modern society individuals are becoming more dependent on each other,while others say that individuals are becoming more independent of each other. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Should the level of interdependence between people in the present society be up or down? This question has been a heated social issue in debate, and has resulted in opposite viewpoints among the public. Personally, I believe the community turns more self-supporting, and my reasons will be expounded as below.
In terms of information communication, the thriving Internet today has reduced the level of people’s connection with others, because this technology can provide more abundant, timely and objective information to every social individual. In other words, modern people are used to relying on the Internet for the acquirement of news, knowledge, social experience and even answers of school tasks, rather than face-to-face questioning, talking or discussing with others. Therefore, the common interdependent human relation 登录查看全部内容

国外电影VS本土电影 Nowadays foreign movies are very popular and attract most of people, so that fewer people watch local films. Do you think the government should support local movie industry?
Presently, the high popularity of foreign movies in local film market has been a heated issue in debate. Some people propose that to preserve local movies the government should interfere with by supporting finance and formulating policies. Personally, I partially concur with this view, and my reasons would be expounded as below.
Firstly, I believe this assertion is on the wise side, because supporting local films actually serves to preserve local culture. The main worrying aspect of foreign movies, such as Hollywood ones, is that they are culture invaders, which expose local viewers to a global pop culture, from food of MacDonald to rock music, from luxury fashion to famous-brand cars. By watching these movies, local people, especially the young ones, might be misled that the foreign culture has the superiority over the local one. Therefore, there is always a justification for the government to back dome 登录查看全部内容

文化传统是否应该变成收钱的旅游胜地 Some people think that cultural traditions may be destroyed when they are used as money-making attractions aimed at tourists. Others believe that it is the only way to help traditions to remain in the world. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
In the present case, there is a heated social debate over the problem whether or not the traditions of culture should be shaped into tourist attractions. Personally, I fundamentally concur that this measure might be a wise means in obviating the extinction of a local culture, especially a less-known one, and my reasons will be expounded as below.
Firstly, this policy can make an extra financial contribution to cultural protection. For example, as long as a historic building or museum can be turned into an attraction for tourism, then the inflow of visitors, both local and international, will provide a stable financial source, such as paying for fees of the admission and souvenirs, for a better maintenance of these traditional elements. That is to say, more securities, conservators and specialists of restora 登录查看全部内容

为什么人们现在不大去博物馆了 We live in cities or towns which have museums displaying artistic, historical or cultural importance, but people do not visit them. Why do you think people do not visit museums in their local areas?What is the importance of museums to society?
In the contemporary society, a declining popularity of museums has been a social issue concerning the public. In this essay, I will give the reasons behind the trend and emphasize the contributions of these cultural facilities to the society.
There several reasons as to why today people’s interests in visiting museums are fading. To begin with, under a fast-paced, work-oriented lifestyle, people have to struggle in overwork and extra meetings at nights and weekends, so that spending time pursuing spiritual needs, such as appreciating cultural items and antiques in museum, is no more than an unreachable day dream. What is more, by advanced computer technology, main con 登录查看全部内容

现代建筑是否应该遵守传统风格:Modern buildings change the character and appearance of towns and cities. The government should insist that new buildings be built in traditional styles to protect cultural identity. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Should new buildings pursue traditional architecture style, for the sake of culture preservation? This question has been a controversial issue in debate. Personally, I believe this assertion is partially problematic, and my reasons would be expounded as below.
Firstly, tradition-based new buildings can be beneficial for the recovery of the public interests in a local culture. In fact, the cultural identity of a nation now is fading, because of the invasion of a global culture caused by the Internet and international travelling. This undesirable trend, however, can be reversed by new buildings designed in traditional way. For example, an old-style building is an aggregation of local culture, collecting and presenting the unique materials, structures, patterns and artistic skills and even traditional inscriptions written by indigenous language. By watching this building closely, local residents can find the beauty and greatness of traditional elements, thus igniting their enthusiasm of respecting, appreciating and protecting their regional culture.
