In the current society, with the rapid development of the Internet,

shopping on the internet has been a fashion especially among the youngsters.

Online shopping has made our daily life become more convenient and feel

comfortable. In the first place, shopping on the Internet can save much time so

they would be able to concentrate more time and energy on their academic study.

In the second place, the Internet has provided kinds of goods to consumers, and

we can save much money through online shopping.

However, every coin has two sides, online shopping also has shortcomings.

We maybe buy some fake products online because of lacking of the face to face

communication with sellers. What’s more, the delivery will increase the risk of

items’ damage.

Weighing up these two arguments, I prefer the former, because shopping on

the internet has become more and more important to us in our daily life. We

should follow the footsteps of the times.

There is a library in every university, some schools pay special attention

to the building of the library, because the library always on behalf of

presentation of a school. We can find all kinds of books in the room, library

provides convenience, but it still has space to improve.

On the one hand, we can check the information and go to the library every

day. It is open all the week, and the time is from 8 o’clock to 10 o’clock. For

students, they can go to the place all the time. What’s more, the book they want

is easy to find, they can check on the computer, and find the number

quickly.

On the other hand, the library needs to improve its equipment. The books on

the library are very old, it is not good for students to do some research paper.

The amount of the computer is not enough, I always find the students wait for

the computer, while some students need to use the computer for a long time. So

there will be better if increase the number of the computer.

Despite these drawbacks, I am generally pleased with the library and hope

that it will continue to make improvement in the future.

Recently, I have been reading a book named Communication Arts. In this

book, the author Doctor Li introduces many methods to communicate with others

successfully and tells readers why everyone should be a polite person. My

favorite sentence in this book is “Everyone has potential, and everyone can

determine your own future by developing positive psychological, mastering

communication arts and showing your personality charm. In that way, you can have

a wonderful life!”

During whole sections, this book tells us human should live in a large

group, since people can’t solve all problems by their own. For that matter,

human beings should learn a series of manners to deal with any situation which

might happen wherever and whenever. After that, Doctor Li makes a point that

people need to realize how to resolve disagreements between friends, families or

colleagues. There always appears this kind of situation in social life, so it’s

important to understand how to settle it. Finally he teaches us that

communication techniques not only reflect in normal talk but also within body

languages.

In each part of the book, the author takes a large number of examples in

daily life to confirm his points. These examples in daily life are easy to

understand and accept.

After reading the book, I find many shortages of my communication skills. I

used to lack of patience when I talk to others, even got mad at them. This was

impolite and might destroy relationships between my friends and me. Therefore I

would try my best to improve myself and be welcome.

With the development of science and technology, our lives have changed a

lot in the past century. Many things that wouldn’t happen before have come into

reality now. Therefore, our lives will change as well in the future. Our pace of

live will greatly speed up, because we will help many machines to finish our

work. Many things can be done autonomously. Therefore, people will have more

time for fun. People can travel the outer space freely. Space shuttle can bring

people to planets far from the earth. Human beings may live in other planets.

Besides, our environment will be much better than now, because some effective

measures are taken to protect the environment. Earth is still a beautiful home

for human.

An essential quality for young people is diligence.Nowdays,the issue on the

most important personal quality of young people is highly debatable,and ideas

vary from peerson to person. Some would claim that confidence is the most

essential. But for my part,the most essential quality for young people is

diligence that helps us a lot.

Diligence enables us to academic results. As we all know,academic results

requires lots of researches. An ancient calligraphy,named Wang Xizhi,devoted

lots of his time practicing writing. As is known to us all,he dried his pool

with his writing brush day after day. Though diligence,he became the greatest

calligraphy,finally.

Deligence helps us to achieve better scores in school. Last semester,one of

my fellow students failed to pass the Listening cours. In fact, questions set in

that paper were not very difficultt. If she had spent a little more time

listening rather than watching TV at her dorm,she could have passed the exam. On

the other hand,one of my roomates worked hard every day and got a high

score.

Diligence provides us more chancs to be succeed. As the saying goes “The

early bird catch the worm”. A diligent man may get up early and have more time

to improve himself. And that is the key to be succeed. If

we spend some time observing people around us,we can easily find some

people,just like Li Jiachen,are diligence and successful.

All in all,as a young people,once we have cultivated the essential quality

of diligence,we can achieve academic achievements,get a high score and have more

chances to be succeed. Once we have this essential quality:diligence,it do helps

us a lot in many ways.

TheTimeof a date has different standard for boys and girls. Girls always

like to be late for about ten minutes while boys always reach the destination on

time. If the girls are earlier than the boys, then the situation will become

awkward, it is not polite to let a girl wait for a boy. But sometimes girls are

always late for more than half an hour, which annoys the boys. It is said that

if you call a girl to ask her if she is on the way, then she will answer you

that she just goes out of the house, the truth is that she is still in the

house. Most girls are late for making up for a long time. It is considerate to

be late for a date for a few minutes, but it is impolite to be late for much

time.

My father used to be a heavy somker.He smoked more than 20 cigarets each

day;therefore,he was the polluter wherever he went.My mother and I tried to

persuade him to give it up.He gave it up many times but each time only for a few

days or only for a few hours.

Once he declared that he would stop smoking right away under the pressure

of my mother,and he threw his cigarets into the dustbin.The effect of his

declaration lasted only for two days.Then I found him smoking again when he

thought that he was alone and no one saw him.On the fifth day of his

declaration,he smoked openly.

Last winter he got pneumonia.When he was well again,the doctor ordered him

to give up smoking.To our delight,this time he really got rid of the habit.It

seems that the doctors order is more effective than mothers scolding,my

suggestion and his own declaration.

The Ten-minute Break Between Classes Time seems to be so limited for us Senior Three students. As a result, more and more students try to study from early morning till late afternoon, even during the ten-minute breaks. In my view, taking a ten minute break between classes is equally important. Otherwise, we will feel exhausted both physically and mentally,During the ten minute break, we are supposed to do something really relaxing, we need is to have a rest, instead of getting more tired. Besides, studying during the break doesn ’ t necessarily mean that you will achieve more. So doing nothing tiring in that short period is of greater significance. As far as my ten-minute breaks are concerned, sometimes I take some simple exercise, such as having a walk with my classmates, or just a free chat to refresh myself. When the next class begins, I feel energetic again.

As it is known to us, Ping An was chosen to perform on the CCTV Spring

Festival Gala with his melodious and strong voice. Also, he had a great

achievement on this dream stage. Although he hadnt gain the popularity among

the audience at the beginning, he always kept his dream in mind and never gave

it up. It is his success that brings home to me the power of dream.

A life without a dream is a life without a sun. Therefore, in no

circumstances can we give up our dream. Unquestionably, dreams are of great

importance. For one thing, a person having a dream will be considered to be more

responsible and unswerving. For another, in pursuit of our dream, there is a

chance that good habits and positive attitudes can be formed, contributing to

our success.

As for our students, what we should do is to choose a healthy seed and

plant it on fertilized soil. Firstly, knowledge is the foundation of dream

realization, so we should spend much time in study to enrich ourselves.

Secondly, it also takes perseverance and confidence if we want to realize our

dreams. Last but not least, we should not be craven and timorous but brave when

we meeting obstacles.

As a student, my main target is to study well and then make progress step

by step. When holiday comes, it is time for me to play, and I should be happy,

while playing all the time makes me feel empty in my heart. I have done nothing

at all. I want to do something meaningful to enrich my life. So a target is

needed for me. I set a small goal, such as, read a book, or help my mother with

her work. Everytime when I finish my target, I will feel so satisfied. The

meaningful life is to do something useful and make you feel happy.

Last night, I went to my friend’s birthday party, I made some friends. We

talked happily, one of my new friends showed us the pictures of the places he

had been visited. We were so envious, all of us had the dream to go travel to

many places, but none of us took the action. He told us that we were so young

and had the energy to see the world. He told us to carry out the plan once we

had the idea. What he told us is right, we are young and it is good to be young.

In the old people’s eyes, we are so free and can go where we want. But most of

the young people haven’t realized the right they have, they waste their youth

and dare not to do what they want.

People will be the envy of the sky eagle, but never thought it a thousand

times to practice hard; people were envious of butterfly flowers, but do not

have to pay attention to it once as a caterpillar suffering; people are jealous

of those celebrities, those scientists, those successful people, but never

thought they have too much to pay behind the hardships and sweat, experienced

many setbacks.

So, in the face of the unexpected blow, who seem insurmountable

difficulties, the vast expanse of the thorns, I will not retreat. Because I

know, success is built on the basis of failure and sharpening.

Far and away the most important holiday in China is Spring Festival, also

known as the Chinese New Year.

To the Chinese people it is as important as Christmas to people in the

West.

The dates for this annual celebration are determined by the lunar calendar

rather than the Gregorian calendar, so the timing of the holiday varies from

late January to early February.

To the ordinary Chinese, the festival actually begins on the eve of the

lunar New Year‘s Day and ends on the fifth day of the first month of the lunar

calendar. But the 15th of the first month, which normally is called the Lantern

Festival, means the official end of the Spring Festival in many parts of the

country.

Spring Festival is the most importantand popular festival in China.Before

Spring Festival ,the people usually clean and decorate their houses.And they go

to the Flower Fairs to buy some flowers.

During Spring Festival ,the adults usually give lucky money to

children.People often get together and have a big meal.Some people eat dumpling

for dinner.

I love Spring Festival .

It was Mother’s Day. Sun Zheng thought he should do something for his

mother. He decided to help his mother do some housework. After school he went to

a shop to buy some food on his way home.

When he got home, he did his best to cook some nice food,though he couldn’t

do the cooking well. Thenhe cleaned the room. He felt very tired, but he was

very happy.

When his father and his mother came back and saw the clean rooms and dishes

which weren’t so nice, they were very happy.They had their supper together. His

mother said, "Thank you,my child!"

As my second year of high school life has come, I feel a little stressful,

because I want to enter a better college, but my score worries me. I have made

up my mind to make great progress on my study. Firstly, I need to improve my

weak subjects. Geography and math are always my weakness, so I decide to go over

the important knowledge and ask help from my classmates. My good friend is very

patient, and she explain the details to me. With her help, I will make progress.

Secondly, every time when the exam paper handed down, I will scan my mistakes

and figured out how to make it right. Though I always feel frustrated, I will

tell myself to stick on. Finally, I will make it and see hope. Every aim I made

completes me and makes me stronger.

I have a kind mother. Here, let me use the "language" camera to take a

picture of her!

She has a pair of big eyes and double-fold eyelid. Tilted slightly under

the nose of asevere mouth, is not tall. Mothers hand is very rough, because dad

on a business trip in the outside, mum do all the chores. Such as cleaning,

washing clothes and so on, her hand how does not become rough? Rough hands it

doesnt matter, however, when her hands gently pat when I fell asleep, will also

bring me warm, let I drifted into sleep.

At ordinary times mom to my learning method is very concerned about. No

matter how busy, she will carefully check my homework, I wont do topic she

would teach me patiently. If the homework careless, she often remind me, want me

to be careful. She comforted me: "you are also pretty good, get rid of this

trouble, would be much good." Listen to the mother, I told myself, must correct

the flaws of this careless. Summer, mom know I study very tired, you take me to

travel, see the world, I have learned many knowledge outside.

Because I love my mom, so I know, mom, mom is of concern to me, so I am

proud of I have a good mother.

Nowadays, almost everyone has a mobile phone. Some people even have two or

three. Mobile phones changes our lives a lot. It’s so easy to get to others. All

you have to do is making a call. You can talk to anyone no matter how far you

are. Making calls and texting messages are the basic functions of mobile phones.

But now, we can do a lot of things by mobile phones, such as listening to the

music, watching movies, taking photos, reading books and so on. It’s so

functional that it seems like a computer to some extent. Some people even deal

with their business by mobile phones. It’s amazing.
