Newspaper as a Better Source of News

1．  現(xiàn)在許多人都從電視上得知天下事

2．  但我認(rèn)為報(bào)紙是獲取消息的更好來源

3．  其理由是…

(1)For most of us today, television has become our main source of daily news. (2)This is unfortunate, however, because for several reasons newspapers should be regarded as a better source.

(3)It is true that television news can vividly bring into our living rooms dramatic events of singular importance, such as space launchings, natural disasters, wars and so on, but it can not cover important stories in the depth they may deserve because of its time limitation. (4)On the contrary, print news excels in its ability to devote as much space to a story as it sees fit, though it can not compete with television visually. (5)Besides, television is essentially a passive medium. (6)Whether we like a particular piece of news or not, all we have to do is sit in front of the tube and “l(fā)et it happen”. (7)But a newspaper reader can select what he is interested in, skip what he thinks is boring or irrelevant and read it any time he likes to. (8)Most importantly, if all of us get news and information exclusively from television, there will be a decline in general literacy. (9)By contrast, although to follow and absorb a newspaper article is a little bit hard as it requires a high level of mental involvement, it helps to develop one’s intellectual skills.

(10)When we consider television versus newspaper papers on the basis of nature, format and coverage, shouldn’t we think the latter is a better source of our daily news.

How to Solve the Problem of Heavy Traffic?

1．  為解決交通難，有人建議多造馬路

2．  有人則建議限制自行車和小汽車

3．  我的看法

(1)Nowadays, heavy traffic has become the source of greatest complaint in many big cities. (2)As it has seriously influenced people’s daily life and economic development, the highest priority of governments has been given to the problem and many experts have been called in for advice.

(3)A great number of solutions are being offered. (4)Some people suggest that more streets and roads should be constructed. (5)The advantage is obvious: it can reduce traffic density and hence speed up the flow of buses and cars. (6)But traffic flows constantly rise to fill whatever scale of roads and highways are provided for them. (7)And in a city with booming industry, land is precious and cannot be extravagantly used for traffic. (8)So others argue that the number of bicycles and cars should be limited while more bus routes should be opened up because buses can accommodate more passengers. (9)But the decrease in the number of bicycles and cars might give rise to another new set of problems, such as inconvenience to people.

(10)Since neither of the suggestions can effectively solve the problem of heavy traffic, there is an increased awareness that the two solutions may be combined with other possible solutions to produce the best effect.

College Lectures and Discussion

1．  大學(xué)里教學(xué)有講授和討論兩種

2．  這兩種方式有什么長(zhǎng)處和不足

3．  我的看法

What is the difference between the lecture system and the discussion system--- the two teaching methods prevalent on campus both at home and abroad? As a senior, it is not very difficult for me to tell: they have both strengths and weaknesses.

Many students like the lecture system because it helps to learn quickly and much more. Attending a well-prepared lecture is a most rewarding experience: it can open a new horizon for you and save your much time as well—time you might otherwise spend reading one book after another. Yet the fault of the lecture system is that it cultivates a bad habit of passive learning. Students bring their notebooks and even tape recorders to class to write everything down without thinking for themselves, let alone raise any question. On the contrary the discussion system encourages students to form their own ideas and opinions. To engage in frequent and even heated debate, you have to do a lot of homework beforehand, find answers yourselves and thus you develop the analytical skills which benefit both your academic career and your future life. However, it also has its weakness: students do not learn systematically.

In my opinion, both the systems must be improved and a hybrid method may gain more popularity among us students.
