behind every great achievement in anyones life lies perseverance. we see this in every human endeavour. outstanding sportsmen spend all their time practising. their endurance is beyond imagination.

the same is true of businessmen who build up fortunes. what we usually see are their achievements, but once we go behind the scenes we will find that they have put in a lot of continual steady efforts. we all have read of great musicians, writers and inventors who have created or discovered breakthroughs in human achievement. invariably they have said that they owe all their success to perseverance. as to college students, quite a big number of then, have become successful language learners through perseverance, however, a certain group of then, just stop half way and their previous efforts turn out to be fruitless.

of all the countless examples the saga of colonel saunders is perhaps one of the most outstanding. the 65-year-old man from kentucky had a dream to start a chain of fried chicken restaurants all over the world. to realize his dream, he knew that he needed a restaurant owner to go into partnership with him to open the first restaurant and to fry chicken according to the secret recipe he had. colonel saunders had knocked on 1008 doors before he finally found his partner. it is doubtful whether many of us would have had the perseverance to knock even a hundred doors.

from the above discussion we can draw a conclusion that success comes to anyone who keeps working perseveringly and lack of perseverance can only result in frustration and failure.

kinds of high-tech products, such as computer, digital cameras and so on. These

products make our life more convenient, we can keep in touch with family and

friends any time any where. Our life has been changed by the high-tech, we live

in a fast-pace world. Cell phone influences our life deeply, everyone owns it.

While cell phone brings many dangers. First, cell hone contains radiation which

hurts people’s body. Today, more and more people die of cancer, the main reason

is that the high-tech products radiate their bodies, in the long run, the bodies

get sick. Cell phone is one of such products, it hurts our bodies as long we use

it. Second, cell phone distracts our attention about discovering the beauty of

life. People pay their attention on cell phone, they count on it by reading news

and making friends, being less going out. We should use cell phone properly.

Now it is the information society,so a mobile phone is one of the fastest information communication tools.On the one hand, they can contact their parents anytime, especially where dealing with an emergency and in great need of the adults. On the other hand, it is a fashion to be equipped with a cell phone. Whats more, students can relax themselves by playing mobile phone games.

However, students should use cell phones in a proper way. sometimes, middle school students are too small to prevent themselves from misusing cell phone. For example, students tend to waste lots of time to play cell phone games and sending messages, particularly in class.

As far as I am concerned, it is reasonable for middle school students to follow the fashion. After all, cell phones may bring lot of convenience. Yet since the major task of students is study, it is advisable that they should focus on the teachers and textbooks in class and anyone using his or her cell phones in class should be punished.

现在是信息社会,手机是最快的信息交流工具之一。一方面,他们可以随时联系他们的父母,特别是在处理紧急和重大需求的成年人。另一方面,它是一个时尚配备手机。更重要的是,学生们可以放松自己,玩手机游戏。

然而,学生应该使用手机在一个适当的方式。有时,中学生太小,防止自己滥用手机。例如,学生往往会浪费大量时间玩手机游戏和发送消息,尤其是在课堂上。

就我而言,这是合理的中学学生追随时尚。毕竟,手机可能带来很多方便。然而,因为学生的主要任务是学习,是明智的,他们应该把重点放在老师和教科书在课上和任何使用他或她的手机在课堂上的人应该受到严惩。

范文：

It isn’t hard to grow up into a responsible member of society。

I can well remember an incident that happened on a rainy Sunday afternoon。 I was on my way to the bookstore and was waiting for the green light at a crossing when a girl of about ten was knocked down by a passing car， which drove off quickly。 A man immediately rushed to the girl to give her first aid and I joined in without hesitation。 Luckily she was not badly injured and we sent her to the nearest hospital。 Compared with the escaped driver， I am proud of what I did。

As a member of the society， I am aware that being responsible is what it takes to make a better society。

So many children take what their parents do for them for granted, they

haven’t realized the meaning of being grateful. So they always get angry with

their parents, because they don’t get what they want. According to the news that

a little girl went out of the house and refused to go home because her parents

did not give her enough pocket money. I was so shocked to hear it, I would never

ask much from my parents, because I knew they were not easy to make a living and

I am always feel so thankful for what they offer me. Even the one who gives me a

hand when I am in need, I would remember him and when I have the chance, I will

return. A grateful heart makes us a kind person and create a harmonious

environment.

When a guest comes to my home from afar on a cold night, I light bamboo to

boil tea to offer him. Ancient Chinese poem.China is the home country of tea.

Before the Tang Dynasty, Chinese tea was exported by land and sea, first to

Japan and Korea, then to India and Central Asia and, in the Ming and Qing

dynasties, to the Arabian Peninsula. In the early period of the 17th century,

Chinese tea was exported to Europe, where the upper class adopted the fashion of

drinking tea. Chinese tea like Chinese silk and china has become synonymous

worldwide with refined culture. At the heart of the culture of tea the study and

practice of tea in all its aspects is the simple gesture of offering a cup of

tea to a guest that for Chinese people today is a fundamental social custom, as

it has been for centuries.China traces the development of tea as an art form to

Lu Yu, known as the Saint of Tea in Chinese history, who lived during the Tang

Dynasty and who wrote The Book of Tea, the first ever treatise on tea and tea

culture. The spirit of tea permeates Chinese culture, and throughout the country

there are many kinds of teas, teahouses, tea legends, tea artifacts and tea

customs. Better-known places to enjoy a good cup of tea in China include Beijing

noted for its variety of teahouses; Fujian and Guangdong provinces and other

places in the southeast of China that serve gongfu tea, a formal serving of tea

in tiny cups; the West Lake in Hangzhou, also the home of the Tea Connoisseurs

Association, noted for its excellent green tea; and provinces in southwest China

like Yunnan where the ethnic groups less affected by foreign cultures retain tea

ceremonies and customs in original tea-growing areas.

Today, we have a health class. The main content is the harm of haze.

We watched a movie called "the harm of haze", which mainly explained how

terrible haze is.

Haze passed through our bodies, just like games. It comes to the blood

vessel first, let the partners block the blood vessel together, so our blood

pressure will rise; it also has a partner who is less than 0.5cm and has a knife

in both hands, and can directly pass through the blood vessel; it comes to the

internal organs, which are like a tree, and there is white fat like a giant,

which can directly eat the dirty things. However, we have iron ore in our body.

If we eat too much white fat, we will die. This is a blood station! So the

resistance of man has decreased. Its finally at the center - the heart, because

we just blocked your blood vessels, so your heart will cause myocardial

ischemia. "Tremble! Human beings! Im in every breath of yours, "cried haze.

Haze has a great influence on us. With haze, we cant play in the

playground, cant have physical education class, and we need to wear a little

annoying mask. Therefore, we should protect the environment and nature. As long

as you start little by little, you will be able to achieve the results you

want.

The air we breathe is so freely available that we take it for granted. Yet without it we could not survive more than a few minutes. For the most part, the same air is available to everyone, and everyone needs it. Some people use the air to sustain them while they sit around and feel sorry for themselves. Others breathe in the air and use the energy it provides to make a magnificent life for themselves.

Opportunity is the same way. It is everywhere. Opportunity is so freely available that we take it for granted. Yet opportunity alone is not enough to create success. Opportunity must be seized and acted upon in order to have value. So many people are so anxious to "get in" on a "ground floor opportunity", as if the opportunity will do all the work. Thats impossible.

Just as you need air to breathe, you need opportunity to succeed. It takes more than just breathing in the fresh air of opportunity, however. You must make use of that opportunity. Thats not up to the opportunity. Thats up to you. It doesnt matter what "floor" the opportunity is on. What matters is what you do with it.

People always say in one life, they can’t be sailing plainly, it means

people will meet all kinds of difficulties and they are easy to feel frustrated,

the one who gets over frustration, the one who becomes successful. When we meet

difficulties, we must learn to face it in the optimistic way, so we can see the

hope and have the faith to move on. The difficult moment is just the small

interlude of our lives. As the saying that failure is the mother of success, so

we need to learn lessons from failure and then when the time comes, we will get

successful. Facing frustration is unavoidable, if we can handle it well, we will

win.

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Good morning! I am Oscar, the spokesman of the Students’ Union. On behalf

of the Students’ Union, the main organizer of today’s sports meeting, I welcome

you all to the beautiful stadium. After two months’ preparation, our annual

sports meeting is held on schedule.

Thanks to the support and help from our school leaders and teachers. Though

they have many school responsibilities, they have taken time off to take part in

our sports activities. Let’s give them a big hand. Through sports, we can not

only develop our physical prowess, but also promote social and emotional skills,

and even intellectual skills, which will matter in our future lives

substantially. So hope everybody here cherish this opportunity and enjoy it.

At last, best wishes for the success of the sports meeting and best wishes

for the good results of our athletes. It is my pleasure to announce the open of

the sports meeting. Thank you and good luck!

should internet slang be prohibited?

at present, internet slang, such as “gg, mm, xia mi”， has become popular among the teenagers.

there are different opinions on internet slang. some students think internet slang is vivid, fashionable and full of humor and intelligence. besides, it makes chatting on the internet quicker.

however, some other students think internet slang lacks depth of thought and is too simple. also, it is hard to understand and not accepted by most people. the words sometimes might make people confused, even resulting in misunderstanding.

every coin has two sides. in my opinion, living in the information age, if we don’t know the internet slang, we seem to fall behind the times. it will be ok as long as these terms are used correctly in proper situations.

He to the United States after treatment, and participated in many international and domestic competition, repeatedly won the champion, second, third, also broke the records.

我心中的偶像是刘翔。他是举世闻名的田径运动员。他在各类比赛中，已获得50枚金牌、13枚银牌和6枚铜牌。

在2004年的雅典奥运会上，他一举夺得110米栏男子跨栏世界冠军，成为中国人的骄傲，也是亚洲人的骄傲。

因为刻苦的训练和比赛，刘翔留下了很多伤病，特别是跟腱受伤严重。2008年奥运会上，刘翔因为伤痛没能进入决赛，很遗憾地退出了。

他到美国治疗后，又参加了很多国际国内比赛，屡次获得冠军、亚军、季军，还打破了多项纪录。

今年的伦敦奥运会上，刘翔又参加了比赛，令人惋惜的是他在预赛中因伤又摔倒了，但他顽强地站了起来，用一条腿艰难地蹦向终点，他疼得不时还要停下来，做一下深呼吸。

尽管很多人因为刘翔退赛都批评他，但我觉得他取得的成绩和争得的荣誉是绝大多数人无法做到的。他的拼搏精神是值得我学习的。

我们无论在学习中，还是做其它事情，不正是需要这种坚持不懈的精神吗?

我在实际生活中，每当遇到困难想退缩时，一想起刘翔那顽强的精神，就会激励我想办法去克服。所以说，他是我心中的偶像。

What impresses me most in Beijing is the Great Wall which is one of the

greatest projects in the world.

Its not only the cultural heritage, but also a symbol of China. "Its

glorious." I think. It looks like a big dragon running across the mountainous

area. It starts Shanhaiguan in the east to Jiayuguan in the west.Its so long that nobody can walk from the beginning to the end.It was firstly built in Qin Dynasty and prolonged in Ming and Qing

dynasties.It was used to protect the enemies from invading in the past, but now it

has become the place of interest which attracts so many tourists both at home

and abroad.

When I was standing on the top of the Great Wall, I felt as if I were in

ancient days.

I could see many laborers working very hard. How could they finish this

extremely difficult task by hand?

十月一日正好是国庆节，也就是祖国妈妈的生日。

每当国庆节来临之际，单位的门上挂起了灯笼，甚至上面都插上了彩旗，门上还张贴了“欢度国庆”四个大字。公园、大街小巷的树上都挂了灯笼。街道两边都摆满了五颜六色的鲜花。到处洋溢着节日气氛。

为了迎国庆，我们有的写作，有的画画，并且要从里面选出几个最好的作品贴在后面，办一个国庆专栏，作为送给祖国妈妈的生日礼物。

祝祖国妈妈生日快乐!

October is just the National Day, that is, the mothers mothers birthday.

When the National Day approaching, the unit hung on the door of the lantern, and even above the plug in the banners, the door also posted the "celebrate the National Day" four characters. Park, the streets of the trees are hung with lanterns. Both sides of the street are filled with colorful flowers. Filled with festive atmosphere everywhere.

In order to meet the National Day, we have some writing, some painting, and from the inside to choose a few best works posted in the back, do a national celebration column, as the mothers birthday gift to the motherland.

I wish my mother a happy birthday!

The stage of college is the new chapter for students. They need to learn

independent as they live in the dormitory. Learning major knowledge and

mastering the professional skill are the main tasks, but the necessity of

practical experience can’t be ignored if they want to start their career

successfully.

Being freshmen, many students start to lose themselves as they just want to

enjoy the freedom and forget about study when they come to campus. But some wise

students have made their plans. They not only spend a lot of time in library,

but also fulfill their time by taking practical experience, which will be a

great help in future career. We are easy to find that the successful young men

have started their career as they are students.

In the job market, most employers care about the practical experience when

they look at the resumes. They want this type of graduates because they can

spend less time to teach them get familiar with the new environment, which can

improve the working efficiency. If students want to take advantages over others

in the job market, then they’d better seek some internship.

This morning I wake up, I found white outside, its snowing! I quickly got dressed and went downstairs grandma.

Came to the front, foot in the white snow "through" the sound. The tree, the roof, the car is covered white snow, snow in the tree, in particular, like pieces of blooming flowers. Covered with white snow vehicle, does not know by which the naughty boy painted all kinds of pictures, very funny.

When I was watching the snow, my back doesnt know what was hit, I looked back a look, turned out to be a grandma threw a snowball, I rub a good big snowball away in the past, hit on the head of the grandma. In this way, a "snowball fight" began. Finally, we both tired, exhausted, grandma said: "ok, dont play, go home!" "Well, Im tired too." I replied.

Upstairs came home, I reluctantly took one look at the beautiful snow, really good beautiful beauty.

今天早上我一觉醒来，发现外面白茫茫的，下雪了!我赶紧穿好衣服和奶奶下了楼。

来到楼前，脚踩在洁白的雪上发出了“咯吱咯吱”的声音。树上、房顶、车上都盖上了白白的雪，特别是树上的雪，就像一朵朵盛开的白花。盖着白雪的车辆，不知被哪个调皮的孩子画上了各种各样的图画，好玩极了。

正当我欣赏着雪景时，我的后背不知被什么撞了一下，我回头一看，原来是奶奶扔了一个雪球，我也搓了一个好大的雪球扔了过去，正好打在了奶奶的头上。就这样，一场“雪球大战”开始了。最后，我们双方累得筋疲力尽，奶奶说：“行啦，别玩了，回家吧!”“嗯，我都累得不行了。”我回答道。

上楼回家的时候，我依依不舍地看了一眼那美丽的雪景，真的好美好美。

The way people hold the belief that a fun-filled， pain-free lifestyle

equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever obtaining real

happiness. If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness，then pain must be equal to

unhappiness. But in fact，the opposite is true： more often than not things that

lead to happiness contain some pain.

As a result，many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true

happiness.They fear the pain inevitably (不可避免地) brought by such things as

marriage，raising children，professional achievement， religious commitment，

self-improvement.

Ask a bachelor why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be

less and less satisfying. If he is honest，he will tell you that he is afraid of

making a commitment，for commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is

filled with fun， adventure and excitement.Marriage has such moments，but they are

not its most distinguishing features.

Couples，with infant children， are lucky to get a whole nights sleep of a

three-day vacation. We dont know any parent who would choose the word fun to

describe raising children. But couples that decide not to have children ever

know the joys of watching a child grow up or playing with a grandchild.

Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun

is one of the most liberating realizations. It liberates time： now we can devote

more hours to activities that can really increase our happiness. It liberates

money：buying that new car or those fancy clothes to increase our happiness now

seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy：we now understand that all those

who always have so much fun actually may not be happy at all.

What is a good eating habit? In my opinion, a good eating habit is related

to eat healthily and regularly. To say it simply, Xiao Ming has breakfast about

7:30a.m. to 9:00a.m. every morning and lunch at noon. He also has dinner about

6:30p.m. to 7:30p.m in the evening. What he eats is healthy food, such as, meat,

vegetable, fruit, egg, milk and so on. He would not have some snacks for a meal.

He also would not eat and drink too much or eat nothing. Xiao Ming sets a good

example to have a good eating habit.
