Money and the Meaning of Life Recently,a professor of philosophy in the

United States has written a book called Money and the Meanlng of Life. He has

discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning

than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to

keep a record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend

their money, they can see what they really value in life. He says our relation

with others often becomes clearly defined when money enters the picture. You

might have a wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very

good friends. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some

money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger

than ever before. Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesnt. This

person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in

the money world, there is something lereal about it.

People just have an idea of ma-ki-ng more and more money, but what is it

for? How much do I need for any given purposes in my life7 In his book, the

professor uncovered an important need in modern society: to bring back the idea

that money is an instrument rather than the end. IMoney plays an important role

in the material world, but expecting money to give happinemay be missing the

meaning of life.

So we should cherish youth and do whatever we like. In my opinion, when we are

这几天,霾像一个邪恶的国王,统治着我们南京的上空。它耀武扬威、胡作非为,给我们的生活造成了很大的危害。

早上,原本灿烂的阳光晒到我身上暖洋洋的,可由于雾霾的遮挡,那耀眼的太阳变得模糊起来,像一个若隐若现的鸭蛋黄,雾霾好像把它当作了一顿美餐,随时都有可能吞没这可怜的太阳。没了阳光的温暖,我感觉身上冷冰冰的,枫树、小草、月季花也好像失去了生机与活力。这可恶的雾霾夺走了我们这个阳光明媚、鸟语花香的环境!

妈妈带我骑车外出,前方模模糊糊的,妈妈只好小心翼翼地开着,大车、小车都像中了魔法,有气无力的,速度简直像蜗牛一样。赶时间的司机急得直按喇叭,可根本无济于事。电视上报道,因为雾霾,大批航班晚点,许多高速公路封闭。通往江心洲的公路上还发生了三车连环相撞的车祸。这可恶的雾霾夺走了我们畅通无阻的交通!

听专家说,霾是由空气中的灰尘、硫酸等粒子组成的。霾在吸入人的呼吸道后对人体有害,长期吸入严重者甚至会导致死亡。怪不得家家户户的窗子不敢打开了,老年人清晨不敢在户外锻炼身体了,人们上街纷纷戴上口罩了,而我身边咳嗽的同学也越来越多了……这可恶的雾霾污染了原本清新的空气,夺走了我们健康生活的环境。

可恶的雾霾,我们不欢迎你!

I saw you through it, faint, so distorted; Through it, I see the dark gray day, dangerous; I saw this busy city, through it, but are confused MuYun. I through it, as though covered with a layer of yarn, but not white, does not light. You am in the shadow of the people, the fog haze! When you can recede.

I have a small masks, masks, haze body around completely, I feel lost and sad, why should meet haze? Why cant isolated from it? My mask, contains not only the haze, and sad. The rapidly changing, clear of renewal, which fills the world how can become cant see? The gorgeous neon lights, under the haze, but also a group of colored clouds. Under the fog haze, everything is so bad, though is hazy, but without any artistic conception, just hate and sadness.

We will meet and fog haze "prompt", why do I not happy? I was so wanton destruction of the environment, is not waiting for the arrival of the fog? Why is that?

Verbal complain, people are floating clouds, there is no use. The work is to protect the fragile nature and irascible "Sir"!

Said ok, dont gossip, I take for the subject "meet with fog", although this is you dont want to, because I want you to understand that the consequences of doing so, will be unimaginable!

我透过它,看见了你隐约的身影,多么扭曲;我透过它,看见了黯淡的灰天,多么扑朔迷离;我透过它,看见了这个繁华都市,只不过都是迷茫暮云。我透过它,仿佛蒙上了一层纱,但并不洁白,并不轻盈。你是万千人民的阴影,霾啊!你何时才能退去。

我有着一个小小的口罩,口罩外,围绕着团团霾体,我感到失落、伤心,为何要与雾霾相约?为何不能与它隔离?我的口罩,包含的不只是这霾体,还有伤心。这个瞬息万变、万象更新的清晰大千世界,怎么会变得看不清?那华丽绚烂的霓虹灯,在雾霾下,也不过一团彩色乌云。在雾霾下,一切都是那么不如意,虽说是朦胧的,但却没有任何意境,只是憎恨和忧伤。

我们都会与雾霾相约“九八”,我为何高兴不起来?我那么肆意的破坏环境,不就是等着雾霾的到来吗?为什么?

人们口头上的抱怨,都是浮云,没有任何用处。最管用的是好好保护大自然这位脆弱而又暴躁的“先生”吧!

好了,闲话不多说,我之所以题目取为“与雾霾相遇”,尽管这是大家不想要的,是因为我想让大家明白,这样做的后果,将不堪设想啊!

雾霾天气:hazy weather

注意:1.词数:120_-150;

2.可适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。

Nowadays, the hazy weather frequently appears in our country. It has not only done harm to people’s health, but also affected the public transportation. Terrible accidents happen every now and then, some highways have to be shut down because of the low visibility.

Obviously, air pollution is the main factor that has resulted in the frequency of hazy weather. At the same time, smoke from burning coal and all kinds of dust are also important factors. Besides, exhaust emission from cars and buses has made the situation even worse.

So proper measures should be adopted to deal with the serious problem. To students, opportunities for outdoor sports activities should be decreased, washing faces and hands with running water after each outing is also important, and do not forget to wear a good-quality mask to protect yourself while going out.

I hope we will regain a fresh, clean and bright world soon.

Meaning of Life Life is important to anyone in the world. But what the life

mean is not clear to anyone on the earth.

What is the meaning of life? Someone thinks that life is working and

working. They think that they dont need to know anything outside the field of

their specializations, so they dont care about many things such as sports,

entertainment, music...

Life is more than working. Of course working is important to our life,

because it supports oppotunity to get money, and make our life better. However,

working is not enough to life. As a human in todays society, he or she should

know much more knowledge than his or her own field. The knowledge outside ones

specialization can help him or her build up the moral sense.

The meaning of life is difficult to explain. No one can give the clear

identification of it. But the life is not difficult. The meaning of life is to

devote. If anyone in the world is ready to devote, the life of the world will be

今年除夕到正月十五期间,北京雾霾天气出现的天数占到50%以上,严重影响了老百姓的生活和健康。请写一篇短文,描述一下北京雾霾的情况,分析雾霾出现的原因,并提出治理雾霾的措施。

注意:词数不少于100词。

参考范文:

During the 15 days from New Years Eve to Lantern Festival, Beijing was affected by smog for more than half the time, because of which people suffered a lot. On the road people drove slowly because they could not see clearly. People also suffered from many illnesses caused by smog.

The smog in Beijing has been caused by many factors, in which the increase of cars in the city area plays an important role. The cars send off a lot of poisonous gases, which in turn adds to the already serious air pollution.

In my opinion, the number of cars should be limited. We should call on the people to use more public transport. Only in this way can we expect to have more sunny days.

【参考译文】

在新年除夕到元宵节的15天里,北京受到烟雾的影响超过一半,因为人们遭受了很多痛苦。路上人们开车缓慢,因为他们看不清楚。人们也遭受了许多由烟雾引起的疾病。

北京的烟雾是由多种因素引起的,其中城市汽车的增长起着重要的作用。汽车排出大量有毒气体,这反过来又加重了业已严重的空气污染。

在我看来,汽车的数量应该是有限的。我们应该号召人们使用更多的公共交通工具。只有这样,我们才能有更多的晴天。

glittering and sinister. A high, clear flame, an immense and lonely flame,

ascended from the ocean, and from its summit the black smoke poured continuously

at the sky. She burned furiously, mournful and imposing like a funeral pile

kindled in the night, surround-ed by the sea, watched over by the stars.

A magnificent death had come like a grace, like a gift, like a reward to

that old ship at the end of her laborious days. The surrender of her weary ghost

to the keeping of stars and sea was stirring like the sight of a glorious

triumph. The masts fell just before daybreak, and for a moment there was a burst

and turmoil of sparks that seemed to fill with flying fire the night patient and

watchful, the vast night lying silent upon the sea.
