society, most people have more and more things to do and have less time to

Firstly, it is quite convenient ant safe for us to use a credit card. Cash-stolen does not exist in this way. People now take a card instead of a heavy purse wherever they go. Secondly, credit cards represent great honour. People using credit cards shows his special identity and draw others attention.

On the other hand, credit cards are not always that good. Credit cards can lead to overspending somehow. People pay more than they have and then get busy paying off. Furthermore the credit card cheating happens more often.

Since I started my major in the tea culture of ChinaI have been deeply

impressed by its sophistication and beauty.I would like to share some

fascinating aspects of the tea culture of China.

In a country with the history of five thousand yearsthe Chinese tea

drinking habit dated back to the Tang Dynasty (618-907AD).It became a national

tradition and led to development of a delicate tea drinking ritual.Over the

centuriespoets and artists in China wrote many marvelous masterpiecesin

appreciation of tea and Chinese people’s constant love of tea drinking .One of

the best-known writers is Lu Yuwho was regarded as the “Tea Sage ” for he

composed the first book on tea.In his classic bookhe detailed his studies of

teasuch as the origin of teatea toolstea pickingtea cookingtea ceremony and

well-known areas where tea was grown.And the valuable knowledge he recorded has

laid foundation for modern tea culture development.

based on ways in which tea leaves are processedthere are five distinct

types of tea.They are as follow:the green teathe black teathe Wulong teathe

compressed tea and the scented tea.Among themmay foreigners are familiar with

the green tea.The Longjing teaof the green typehas a reputation.

With the development of the e-commerce, more and more people intent to do

the shopping online. There are many advantages of online shopping, yet there are

some disadvantages too.

On the one hand, the online shopping are very convenient. Unlike the

physical stores, there is no limit of time for you to do the shopping online.

And you can find anything in the online store, some of which you may hardly buy

at the local. And also, the price is relatively transparent, you can choose the

affordable one to buy.

On the other hand, since the goods are only presented by the pictures and

descriptions, it is hard to tell its reality, so you might have bought something

you don’t like, or even the fake one. Of course you can ask for the after

service, but it will increase your cost of the time. And the advertisements on

the online shops may make you spend much more money on online shopping without

being conscious.

Anyway, the online shopping makes the shopping easier, but please do it

with rationality.

Many people dream to live a healthy life. But sometimes they do not have a

full understanding of healthy life. In my mind, a healthy life includes physical

and mental health. People need to have a healthy diet and regular exercise to

make our physical more and more healthy. At the same time, people have to

remember that mental health is also very important. People need to find ways to

relax themselves and keep a good mood every day. At least do not be depressed

for a long time. People can have a healthy life only when they keep a good

health between physical and mental.

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.

In the winter vacation life I have seen such a story to share with you:

Boone smile day, boone to visit a client, but unfortunately, they didnt

reach an agreement. Boone very upset, come back later told the story to the

manager. Tell the manager listened patiently boone, silent for a moment and

said, "you might as well go again, but should adjust their own state, always

remember to smile, use your smile to impress each other, so that he can see your

sincerity."

Boone to try to do it, he behaved himself very optimistic, very sincere,

has been permeated with a smile on his face. Results each other have also been

infected by boone, they happily signed agreement.

Boone have been married for 18 years, every morning to go to work. Busy

life let he forgot his beloved wife, he seldom smile to his wife. Boone decided

to give it a try and see what difference smile will bring their marriage.

The next morning, boone comb my hair looked in the mirror is smiling at

frail, the scowl on his face. When he sat down to eat breakfast, he greeted Mrs.

With a smile. She amazed, very excited. In this two weeks, boone felt more

happiness than in the past two years.

Boone often sincerely compliment, now stop talking about their needs and

annoyance. He tried to see things from other peoples opinions. All this really

changed his life, he gained more joy and friendship.

This story gave me the message, do anything to adjust their own state of

mind, always remember to use the smile, set each other, play with your smile so

that he can see your sincerity. A smile can bring warmth, friendship, can bring

happiness. So in the work, life will smile to face, in a good state of mind to

treat people and things around.

The usage of Internet becomes one of the most controversial topics in the

society. As a college student, I believe Internet is beneficial to me more than

the way it harms me. There are many advantages for using Internet.

First, I can best use my time to find information online instead of going

to different libraries. Also, the information can be dated back in decades ago.

It is very helpful to use those information as reference and historical proof.

In the library, it is hard to find so much "old" information. Another advantage

to use Internet is that I can stay home and have a lecture online. It is much

more convenience to me because I can stay warm to have class in the winter time

instead of spending two hours on the bus and physically attend class. In

addition, Internet provides me a better way to communicate with my friends and

professors. I can get response from my professor in a few minutes instead of

waiting outside of his door for hours. Some of my friends are living in a

foreign countries, I can simply just drop him an email whenever I can and get a

message from him very quick. It is much better than waiting for letters. Also,

the email will not lose while the letter might be losing in the process of

delivery.

However, there are also disadvantage of using Internet. For example, I

might spend too much time on the Internet to concentrate on my study. Also,

there is a chance that I am cheated because of the Internet purchasing. Last,

Internet has lots of information, both helpful and harmful. There might be too

much tempatation that I will access some of the harmful information I can on the

Internet.

Even though the usage of Internet has both positive and negative effect to

me, I still consider Internet is a symbol of technology development. I believe I

can use the Internet very well as long as I know how to control myself.

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.

Nowadays, there is a growing focus on health care. People are pursuing a

healthy lifestyle. A healthy diet is one of the most important parts of it. As

the saying goes, bread is the staff of life, eating healthily and deliciously is

the goal we pursue. From my point of view, in order to build healthy eating

habits, we should eat more vegetables and less fat and sugar. Vegetable is the

best source of s vitamin, because vegetables are rich in vitamins. Among them,

vitamin C and vitamin A are the most important. Too much fat and sugar can lead

to obesity, which is harmful to health. Besides, eating more fruits and drinking

more water is of great help.

Friend plays important role in our lives. Everyone needs his or her own

friends. Some people make friends easily but some do not. And “friend” means

differently to people. Some people think friends should stay together all the

time, but some others think that share and support is the real meaning of

friend. From my point of view, friend is the person who will always be with you

no matter what happens. It’s the person who can share your happiness as well as

sorrows.

Dear mom and dad, How time flies! And it has been really seven years since

I entered the middle school, during which time I spent the unforgettable time

with my friends; what’s more, the most precious ages with my family. Instead of

calling you regularly, I thought I’d write a letter to tell you exactly what I

want to say. To be good parents is by no means an easy job as I imagined before.

It includes patience, responsibility and affection. Through these years, I here

really gained a lot from your experience. I still remember when I failed in

maths and even wanted to give it up, you just patted me on the shoulder and

encouraged me to have another try. Later, you praised me for my progress and

earnest effort, which really gave me a sense of achievement. Looking younger

children, I suddenly saw myself in teenage years. I was so rebellious and

inconsiderate at that time. You must have gone to a lot of troubles for me. I am

really sorry for the time I made you irritated. Mom and dad, thank you for being

firm with me when I went through my rebellious stage. I do appreciate what you

have done for me. I love you forever.

Yours loving boy,

Zhu Bajie

Recently,haze weather has become a daily one right here in large part of

China.People are forced to wear the mask to avoid breathing poisonous air.So it

is necessary to find out the reason why leads to that and work out the

resolution.If we trace the cause for haze weather ,the main points are as

follows ,first,china s air quality standards are rather lax and evaluation

factors are limited,so you will see that current air appraisal system has

defects.Second,some people just go for economic interests instead of turning out

products according to relevant law and regulations.They tend to use obsolete

equipment in which they are high likely to emit a great deal of wasted air.

Third,across our society ,relevant protection awareness has not built up so

that people havent formed a habit of using green product and saving energy as

much as possible.Just for the sake of convience to go out,people rely more and

more on travelling and working by car while car is the main cause for the haze

weather

To settle this problem,a series of meaures should be taken as follows.First

,we should strengthen air monitor to lower the levels of small particulate

pollutants.Second,we should enact more strict laws and regulations and keep

perfecting our current law on environmental protection to regulate people s

daily action and the industrial production and punish those factories that

ignore the protection and keep emitting dangerous material that cause haze.

Third,we should develop green and energy-saving energy to lower the

emission of haze and improve air quality.As far as i am concerned ,if we work

together to be able to do such measures ,our environment will getting better and

better and haze weather will vanish completely.

There is an old Chinese saying: Top students come from strict teachers.

Perhaps affected by this saying for a long time, we believe it right. However,

as time flies, lots of things have changed. Therefore, I am eager to discuss

what relation is the best between teachers and students.A teacher can treat a

student in two ways .One is strict, and the other is friendly. Most teachers

prefer the first way.To start with, we certainly have to admit that strictness

is very effective, especially to the naughty pupils.

As pupils we aren’t able to control ourselves well or fix our attention on

one thing for a long time. We do most things because they are interesting or we

feel like doing. We are always looking out of the window in class. Sometimes, we

get to play games and forget our homework. On this occasion, strictness is a

must. It not only forces us to do the right thing, but also helps us develop a

good learning habit, which is of great importance during our whole life .In

other words, it is the first step to success.Still, everything has two sides.

Its weak points are very obvious. You see, there’re top students in a class,

where average students make up the majority. Then teachers’ orders or

suggestions are for the majority, not for top students. However, top students

always have their own study plans and prefer special homework, so orders usually

won’t take great effect on them.

Maybe you have thought out that teachers can give orders only to the

majority and set some freedom to top students. However, it’s impossible .For a

whole class, teachers couldn’t give order to part of the class, for the majority

would question why they needn’t do such work, but we need? It would be probable

that they think teachers treat them not equally, and will not obey teachers’

orders any more. This is a difficulty for teachers.It also has another

disadvantage——the communication problem .Since teachers are strict, we never

tell teachers our personal affairs or secrets. Mostly we just tell them to our

friends, but as students too, they couldn’t help to solve our problem, such as

puppy love, communication problems or study problems .Not being solved

completely, they always disturb us, influencing our daily life and study. I’m

sure that you think that making friends with teachers can solve the problem, and

you are eager to do so as well. But if we do so, new problems will come out .You

see, an adult couldnt control himself well at times, let alone us students.

However if teachers are our friends, I doubt whether their orders will take

effect any more .You see, have we ever treated our friends’ orders as orders? We

think they’re only jokes. This is another difficulty for teachers.Additionally,

our parents have the same problem. Yes, we need to be friends, but not complete

friends. We need to keep a certain distance, making us communicate well and

willing to take your orders. I remember a story.One day, a lady had her rest

room decorated. And a skilled worker was bricking up the wall. Seeing large

cracks between the bricks, she questioned why. The worker told her after this

summer, the bricks would become bigger, and those cracks would disappear.That is

not only decoration, but also communication. The principle is the same.

The generation gap is unavoidable in almost every family, which brings

about a number of conflicts in a family. In my opinion, to limit the bad effects

of the generation gap, each family should use the following three methods:

First of all, it is important that family members discuss openly about

their pleasures or sadness in childhood in family gatherings. This activity does

not only create a close relationship but also help build up understanding among

all members. For instance, once children are aware that their grandparents and

even their parents did not have a good upbringing during their hard childhood,

they will stop complaining about the previous generations’ obsoleteness. In the

meantime, once old people realize young people are nurtured in a new modern way,

it is easy for them to be tolerant of young people’s new habits or hobbies.

Secondly, people of each generation should not develop a very high feeling

about themselves. In order to do that, they should not think that they are the

only right people in their family because each person has his or her own

limitations. Teenagers would realize that their parents have to struggle with

pain to support them financially, and they would stop rebelling their

strictness. Parents would realize that their children’s new style does no harm

to their studies and stop imposing their own unsuitable standards on their

children.

Finally, the generation gap and its bad effects can be limited if all

members cooperate to build up a close-knit family relationship and a harmonious

atmosphere in which they are open and tolerant of each other. I strongly believe

that each family, by doing that, can enjoy a cozy atmosphere with minimum

interference by the generation gap.

Mobile phone is really necessary and important in modern society as it

brings a lot of convenient to our lives and provides a new way for us to contact

with the world.

In the first place, mobile phone closes the relationship between people

because people can use mobile phone contact with each other at any time. In

particularly, for those people who are far away from each other, mobile phone is

definitely the best tool for them to keep and strengthen their

relationships.

Second, mobile phone makes our work or study more efficient. People can use

mobile phones to search data, to delivery files and so on. For students, they

can use mobile phone to do some readings at any time and any places without

carrying a book.

In addition, mobile phone makes our lives be more wonderful in that it has

been added more and more functions, such as watching movies, listening to music

and writing blog, etc.

Finally, we can use mobile phone to get acquaintance with the matters that

are happening all over the world. With the help of mobile phone, we can get the

latest news even that we stay indoors.

In a word, mobile phone provides great convenient for our lives, makes our

lives more wonderful and brings us an easier way to contact with the world.

Since I go to middle school, I have to learn many subjects. Though I am not

the best student in class, but I won’t give up. I always tell myself to work

hard, because if I want to compete with other students, I need to make great

effort. People are easy to deny themselves when they face difficulty. If they

fail one time, then they will doubt the effort they have made. Actually, we are

not studying in vain. What we learn will be a great help to improve ourselves.

The thing we learn decides what kinds of person we are. So don’t deny yourself,

as you will see the value you have stored before in the future.

Communication is the activity of conveying information through the exchange

of thought, messages, or information. There are many communicating methods, such

as speech, visuals, signals, writing or body languages.

It plays an important role in social lives of human beings, which some

people consider that it’s the basic of human existence.

On the one hand, it’s the communication that spreads information, making us

know the news although it’s far from us. By communicating with others, people

send and get information that helps us know about our surroundings. We all know

that information is extremely important in our lives. On the other hand,

communication builds personal relationship, which connects different people

together. We live in the same society which makes personal relationship

essential in lives. Only with communication can we build and keep good personal

relationships with others. In addition, communication can eliminate

misunderstandings and promote emotions. When we have misunderstandings with

others, timely communicating is the only effective way to solve it.

In short, communication is essential to all people that everyone should

realize that. Therefore, we should learn how to communicate with other

effectively.
