五、作文
(一)My Opinions on English Study (我对英语学习的看法)
Many people like English and hate it at the same time. They like it because it is useful at school, at employment market and on travels abroad. Even some retired people would like to learn a little English because their sons or daughters are studying or working in the English speaking countries. They hate English because it is too difficult to learn. Many people can’t communicate with English native speakers after about ten years’ English study from primary school to university.
Many people’s frustration in English study may be due to too scattered total study time. Let’s compare the efficiency of heating a kettle of water in winter with that of English study. If we turn down the fire to the minimum when a kettle of water is being heated in winter, the heating effect will be close to the cooling effect, efficiency of the heating is very poor. If the fire has been turned off from time to time before the water boils, the water is always unboiled water. If the total time you spend in learning
35
English is too scattered, or the study stops from time to time before you master it, the English study efficiency is certainly very poor.
(二)A Job I Like (我喜欢的工作)
It is well known that job is very important in our life. Nobody can live without it. My dream job is to become a teacher.
There are many reasons that I dream to be a teacher. First, teachers can teach others knowledge; Second, teachers are always very good; Third, teachers always have a young mind.
Above all, it is very important for us to have a dream job. Only in this way can you have a happy and colorful life. I wish everyone can have a good job.
(三)The Life I Want to Live(我想过的生活)下面二选一
(1)There are many reasons explain that I select the big city. Firstly, I think that live in the big city is helpful for the development of individual. The economic development in the big city is better than in the small one. In the big city, the possibility of success is more than in the small city. Live there, there are better, larger companies to offer the opportunities of the development to us. With the development of the economy and the civilization in the world, in the 21st century, knowledge and information will be more important. In the big city, I can get them rapidly then utilize them quickly. For us, the big city is the place near the dream
Second, I think I can live more convenient in the big city. If I live in the small city, maybe there is nothing what I want or I could buy it far from where I live. On the other hand, I can buy anything I want and needn’t run very far in the big city. The traffic is more convenient and there are various traffic tools and I can spend the lest time to arrive where I want. It is helpful for person’s communication and social contact.
The last reason is that, I like play. In the big city there are the best facilities. Small city is suit for relax and the big city is suit for entertainment.
36
So I prefer to live in the big city.
(2)I like to live in countryside,living in a big city will lower one's life span while living in a small town will make me very I can not have a life like living in the country,but I of cause will have a good time together with those birds,those flowers and big trees.

SO in a word ,I individual like living in countryside much better.

Nowadays, any Chinese can enjoy the luxury of owning a private car - if he or she can afford it. Having a car of your own means no more traveling to work on crowded buses or subway trains, and you can drop off the children at school on the way. Moreover, it also means that you can enjoy the weekends and holidays better, because with a car you can go to places where the regular buses and trains do not go, and so you can find a quiet scenic spot with no crowds.
But, cars can bring us pollution ,too. As we all know, cars have bad effect on air. They make the air polluted. So we should not forget our environment when we use cars. And only in this way ,we will have a bright tomorrow!

Secondly, the salary and the prospect take considerable time when choosing the occupation. In addition, it’s better to measure it with your taste, like whether you like doing research or running for business and so on.
