Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? The food we ate in the past is healthier than the food today.

As the agricultural industry has developed with the advance of technology, foods are often presented with chemical materials. For example, there are vegetables with pesticides, junk food which is fried and genetically-modified foods which are potentially harmful to human beings, thus people tend to have something cooked by their own. All these information points to the fact that the food we ate in the past is healthier than the food we eat today.

First of all, it is obvious that modern people suffer from the pesticide remains in vegetables and fruits. Undeniably, with the help of the pesticide, the agricultural productivity has been greatly promoted, not to mention the shape of the fruits and vegetables look more pleasant than it used to be. Therefore, in order to make the foods look more delicate and smell more delicious, people use pesticide to protect goods. However, one of the unfavorable consequences is that pesticide remains result in horrible diseases, or at least render people vulnerable to the infection of bacteria and viruses.

Moreover, people’s diet includes a large portion of fast food, which is mostly fried and harmful to their health. Imagine that we eat the hamburgers, French fries and coke everyday, the most likely result is that we will get overweight. No wonder rate of obesity is on the rise, especially among kids, because they only eat what tastes good, unaware of what are healthy and what are not. What’s worse, heart disease, hypertension and some other diseases could be partially attributed to the over intake of fast food.

In addition, as the genetically-modification technology appears, food produced in this way may lead to some potential harm to people’s health. According to some medical researches, the food that is not naturally cultivated may change the organization of certain genes of human, and thus influence the normal growth of human body. As a consequence, the safety of food nowadays is not as reliable as that in the past. Taking all the reasons above, people’s diet structure is healthier in the past for they do not have to eat food containing pesticides, genetically modified, or mostly fried.

Some people think that bicycle is the best way to travel from place to place. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the bicycle.

Nowhere are bikes more widely used than in China. About 300 million bikes are being used daily around the country, mainly for transport purposes. Indeed, I would certainly cycle to work if I lived nearer to my workplace.

Riding a bike contributes to our health. At the very least, cycling burns calorie. In fact, it does much more. Cycling helps to train our eye-hand-feet coordination and sharpens our sense of balance. It is easy to learn and not physically demanding. It is probably the best sport for overweight people. Besides, the air will be a lot cleaner if more people choose to use bikes instead of cars. Bicycle is the most environment-friendly means of transport except for walking, which has the intolerable downside of being too slow. Actually, due to traffic congestion, cycling is often the quickest way to reach your destination. Apart from being clean and quick, cycling is safe. This means safety for us and others. In light of the actual speed at which a bike usually travels, the likelihood of a collision with pedestrians and fellow cyclists is minimal. Even in the event of such an accident, people involved usually get away with a few scratches at the worst.

Having said that, a more critical rider may find a bike less than satisfactory. For example, it can’t shield against rain or dust; the saddle is often uncomfortable. Besides, bikes are unfit for long distance travel. After all, most people can’t ride more than 20 miles at a stretch.

Taken all together, the bicycle is indeed a brilliant human invention. Unlike many other devices, bike reinforces our reliance on ourselves both physically and mentally. This never fails to fascinate me.

If students were allowed to decide their own subjects, … 高分写作必须杜绝的两种低级错误:时态和单复数 第一段:例举数字,引入话题。

特别提醒:例举的故事、数字、名人名句,精确性不重要,关键是能带入相关话题 第二段:阐述自行车的advantages Riding a bike contributes to our health. 开门见山指出第一个优势

其它写法:Riding a bicycle does have its appeals.

用 In fact, it does more (事实上,它的益处远不局限于此)来引入其它的优势。

It is easy to learn and not physically demanding. It is probably the best sport for overweight people. Besides, the air will be a lot cleaner if more people choose to use bikes instead of cars. 使用“Besides”,自然过渡到下一个advantage 类似的词语: Furthermore, moreover, in addition,

Bicycle is the most environment-friendly means of transport except for walking, which has the intolerable downside of being too slow.

高分搭配:intolerable downside 无法容忍的缺点 与downside\\disadvantage(缺点)搭配的词语:

普通版:obvious(明显的), great(大的), main(主要的), major(主要的)

升级版:considerable(相当大的), distinct(明显的), manifest(明显的), intolerable(不可容忍的), unendurable(无法容忍的), unbearable(无法容忍的), insufferable(无法容忍的), inevitable(不可避免的), doubly(双倍地)

动词: experience(遭遇), suffer from(遭遇), offset(抵消), outweigh(抵消), overcome(克服), remove(消除)

Though bilingual education may sound practical at first thought, it inevitably puts students at a distinct disadvantage.

Actually, due to traffic congestion, cycling is often the quickest way to reach your destination. Traffic congestion = traffic jam 交通堵塞
