1. 现在许多人都从电视上得知天下事
2. 但我认为报纸是获取消息的更好来源
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 “let 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. 为解决交通难，有人建议多造马路
2. 有人则建议限制自行车和小汽车
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. 大学里教学有讲授和讨论两种
2. 这两种方式有什么长处和不足
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. |
