The Way of Learning (学习的方法）
Abigail Adams once said, “Learning is not attained by chance； it must be sought for with passion and attended to with diligence.” It is to say that learning is an enduring process in which one should exert oneself with desire for knowledge. On the contrary, some people hold the idea that there is a shortcut in learning, and drag themselves to look for easy ways to study.
From my point of view, I am totally in favor of Abigail Adams’ s remark. For one thing, passion is of ultimate importance in learning, as interest is the best teacher. For another, one should resort to hard work and perseverance to acquire knowledge. Rome was not built in a day. Diligence and determination will be rewarded, as God loves those who spare no effort to cultivate themselves. In a word, learning is a life-long process which requires passion and diligence.

Attitude Is Everything (态度决定一切）
There is a well-known proverb
，“Every horse thinks its own pack heaviest,” which means whether people feel optimistic or not lies in what attitudes they adopt. It is universally acknowledged that life is by no means perfect and a positive attitude makes life brighter. As the case stands, it is our attitude rather than the situation itself that determines how we feel.
On the one hand, a positive mind brings about an active life, because to be in a good mood or a bad mood is at one’ s own choice. On the other hand, looking at the bright side of the situation and remaining cheerful work out quite well when one is confronted with adversity.
In such a rat-race society, everyone is bound to encounter difficulties. In my opinion, we should keep an optimistic attitude to pull through any hardship, as we can say “attitude is everything” .
Directions: For this part，you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled The Importance of Diligence by commenting on the proverb “Diligence is the mother of good luck. ”
You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.
The Importance of Diligence(勤奋的重要性）
“Diligence is the mother of good luck
，”as the saying goes, which means hard work and perseverance bring about fortune and success. However, it does not mean exerting oneself all day and night without rest, food or sleep.
From my point of view, diligence is of vital significance in one’ s life and career. There are some reasons as follows. Firstly, industrious spirit is an indispensable quality that makes a person stand out, as most people are biologically endowed with almost the same IQ. Secondly, diligence leads to accomplishments while laziness must result in failure. An idle man indulges himself in creature comforts. That he is doomed to failure is of no doubt. Lastly, diligence helps remove ignorance, overcome difficulties, and enlighten the mind.
Therefore, it can be said that being diligent costs nothing but is worthy of millions of dollars. All in all, I hold the view that diligence is crucial in one’ s life.

People Migrating to Another Country
Nowadays, many people choose to live is a foreign country, which has aroused great concern. Many people, especially some intellectuals and celebrities, migrate to some developed countries^ such as America, Britain and Canada. In addition, there are also many people studying and working in foreign countries struggling for “green cards1'
There arc many reasons accoimting for this phenomenon. Among all these fectorSj pursuing high-quality life, which is guaranteed in wealthy countries, plays a critical role. Besides, most people oiigrate to some foreign countries in the hope that their children t;an receive better education and have a more promising future there. Moreover, some people move abroad just expecting to experience a different culture- As far as I am concerned, though I wouLd like to experience various cultures all over the world, I won’t migrate to another country. For one thing, I hate to live far from my friends and relatives who have been with me for more than twenty years. And I firmly believe in the saying that “East or west, home is best.*’ For another, the preparation before movmg Jo another country would be a tough task* Especially，learning a foreign language is really a torture to me.

Should College Students Hire Cleaners?
That some college students at a local university hired a cleaner to do laundiy and cleaning once a week has led to a heated debate. Some people advocate and support the practice. They mamtain that hiring cleaners to keep the dorms clean can help students save time, which they can spend on their studies.
Others, however, argue that hiring cleaners could help students save time and devote to their studies is merely a pretext* Typically, college education is not dominated by heavy loads of coursework and college students have ample time to manage their own afeirs apart &om studies. Usually, those students who claim they are too busy to clean their own dorms are most often found preoccupied with playing computer games or shopping. They refuse to do manual labor because they tend to regard themselves as elites once they succeed in entering a college. Personally, I think college students shouldn't hire cleaners. In performing the cleaning himself/herselft a college student learns to share the responsibility for managing a public space of which one is a part. And by doing so, the student also shows respect for the common welfare of the entire dorm- Cleaning one's own dorm is a small but necessary process whereby one becomes a responsible person.

Importance of Buying a House

3. 我认为…
There is a heated debate on the importance of buying a house with the soaring house prices. Those emphasizing the in^ortance of buyiog a house maintain that living in your bwn house makes you feel better and more comfortable compared to that in a rented one. Besides, no investment is more rewarding than buying a house nowadays. Statistics from both home and abroad shows that owning a house guarantees an increase in assets.
Quite the contrary, many people say, buying a house is not that important. On one hand, a rented apartment can provide the same comfortable or even better life for people. This is especially true when many people have no money to decorate their houses after the big purchase. On the other hand, peopk can spend more money on other more protitable investment than involving in real estate, such as buying stocks or other art poliections. Personally, I think possessing a house is extremely important. At its core, a house is a shelter After buying a house, people will becomc stable. What’s more important is that thctr children will also settle and can concentrate on study _ children could get affected as they adapt themselves with the new places, teachers and creating new friends making them Lag behind academically.
Sinology
1. 近年来国学变得越来越流行
2. 出现这种现象的原因
3. 我对这种现象的看法
In recent years, Sinology, the study of Chinese traditional culture, literature, history, society etc*, has become increasingly popular* For instance, it is reported that many primary and secondary schools have set up courses of sinology, in which students are taught classical works by Chinese ancient educators and philosophers, like Confucius- Another good illustration is in the program CCTV Lecture Room famous scholars, e.g, Yu Dan, give lectures on Chinese ancient philosophies and literatures*
Sinology becomes prevalent due to the fact that it is of vital significance for both the individuals and the society. For one thing, Sinology is the essence of Chinese civilization with more than 5,000 years. Thus, for individuals, they can enlarge their scope of knowledge, enrich their experience and adapt themselves to the complicated society. For another, it is acknowledged that the rehabilitation of Sinology can contribute to the establishment of a harmonious society.
In my opinion, all Chinese people should inherit the merits of Sinology. To do so, we can read books by ourselves or to attend lectures on this issue. Besides, we have the obUgation to popularize introducing it to the world* By doing so, we can not only inherit it but also make it glorious and prosperous.
Should People Play Games While od Duty?

2. 也有人反对这种做法
3. 我的看法
Should people play games white they are working? People*s.attitudes toward it vary greatly. Some people regard it as a common phenomenon in office nowadays. They think playing games is a good way to kill liie boring time. At the same time, it can make them relaxed, which, in turn, can help them do their job efficiently*
However, some people have the opposite opinion. They think companies should prohibit their employees from playing games. They raaintain that playing games at work is an irresponsible behavior and a wrong working attitude which can exert a bad influence on their colleagues. Moreover, many serious mistakes are often made when people piay games during tbeir working time, because playing games distracts people's attention.
In my view, people s&outdi^t play games while on duty. Oa the one hand, pi ay mg games can occupy some of their time wbicb can be used to do something more important and meaningful, such as the further study of their working field and the improving of their working skills. On the other hand, playing online games takes up a lot of corporate network resources which may interfere with other colleagues work.
Working from Home
1.现在有些单位开始允许员工在家办公
2.在家办公的好处
3.这种现象可能产生的影响
Certain companies, especially some small-scale businesses, start to encourage their siaff to work from home or use home as £t working base for at least part of the week nowadays. Some offer some form of remote working support to their workforces, such as equipping them with laptops and installing broadband, and others pay for the telephone bills for these workers. This worJc pattern is popular because it’s clear that there are a number of benefits for these companies. First, it helps retain employees, especially highly- qualified working parents with childcare responsibilities. Second, it brings higher productivity because the employees have fewer interruptions and less commutiBg time. Last but not feas^ it offers savings on premises and other facilities.
However, there are some potential drawbacks. For one thing, there is difficulty of managing home workers and monitoring their performancej and difficulty of maintaining staff development and upgrading skills. For another, it may create a sense of isolation among home workers and it can be harder to maintain team spirit. Therefore, enterprises should weigh the pros and cons before permitting their employees to work at home.
On Taking CET Repeatedly
1. 现在许多考生为了得高分，多次参加大学英语等级考试
2. 有人对这种做法不赞成
3.我的看法
In recent years, many college students are laying grearstress on CET exams. In order to get high marks in the exam3 many sbdents are'taking CET lime and time again although they have passed it. When “CET season” approaches, campuses are filled with students occupied with CET preparations.
However, some people disapprove the idea of taking CET repeatedly for high scores. Although CET application fee is not high, taking the exams constantly can be a considerable financial burden. Moreover, it’s a waste of time to prepare for it every year, when you can do something more meaniigftil during the golden time in college. In addition, rather than focusing on CET, students should strive to develop other kinds of abilities.
As far as Tm concerned, it’s understandable to taking CET repeatedly for higher marks to be more competitive in the job market. If our future job requires a good mastery of English, we can step further to take high-level exams such as TOEFL or IELTS. But if it doesn't, we should not waste our lime and energy to take CET repeatedly.
Campus Safety
1. 校园安全十分重要
2. 因此，学校应当…
3. 我们自己应当…
Campus security and safety is a big issue and has become a focus in education, especially when tragic events happened time and time again on carnfms. The recent stampede at a middle
school in Hunan Province is still fresh in our memory. It took the lives of eight teenagers and injured 26 others.
The tragic events served as a wake-up call. It warns that3 to safeguard the students, there is still much to be done. Schools across the country should take safety education seriously and conduct it compulsorily. Besides, they should revise their emergency preparedness plans and tighten security. For example, security guards should patrol on campus aro^md teaching buildings and student dorms, and enforce strict entrance checks, barring entry to anyone carrying a gun or s. knife.
As students, we should enhance our awareness of safety — that is, being aware of safety issues and of potential hazards in our daily life. For example, foresee the possible incidents and keep away from crowded places. Lock the dorm at night or whenever we are alone in the dorm. If possible, we should also have some first-aid trainings in order to help us survive emergency situations.
