9) ECONOMIC REFORMS IN CHINA
China has taken her economic reforms for nearly two decades. People have
greatly benefited from the free market economy. Year in and year out, our
salaries are higher and higher, and at the same time, our deposit secured
steadily. With money in pocket, people can turn their eyes to other forms of
consumption instead of living necessities: They have more opportunities to enjoy
their lives. Meanwhile the number of people in poverty also decreased greatly.
China, now full of confidence, is catching up with other developed nations.
However, there do exist some problems in the reformation of economy in
China. First of all, with the aggravation of leans in some state-owned or
state-operated corporations, more and more people lose their jobs. That will
make not only those laid-off workers but the whole society lose confidence and
will hinder the development in economy. Secondly, deficit in bank has become a
major problem in the reformation in China. Thirdly, the polarization of the
society gets more and more serious. The rich have become richer and the poor
poorer.
In spite of all these difficulties, people don' t feel frustrated. They
still feel happy and confident about the future. They expect the government can
continue the reformation in economics and solve all these difficulties.
10) AIR POLLUTION
Air pollution is one of the major problems of the modern world. As is known
to all, air is essential for life, but it has been getting polluted almost
everywhere. Air pollution is more serious in industrialized countries. With the
development of industry, the number of various kinds of vehicles and factories
is rapidly increasing. They give off a great amount of gas, which is poisonous
and harmful to the health of people.
Scientists are finding ways to stop air pollution especially in big
industrial areas and densely-populated cities. For instance, people have fixed
special device on a car to reduce its end gas.
Measures have been taken to purify the poisonous gases to a great degree.
Smokeless fuels like natural gas are used by more and more citizens. New
factories are not allowed to be put up in the center of cities, and factories
have used soot-eliminating devices or built recovery towers and sewage treatment
tanks to turn the harmful into the beneficial.
However, we still have a long way to go before we have a "clean" world. Air
pollution is a world-wide problem. It can't be solved easily within a day or
night. People all over the world should make concerted efforts to reduce air
pollution step by step.
11)WOMAN'S POSITION
Almost 50 years have passed since China's liberation. "Though the position
of women has improved to a level higher than used to be the case, it is not high
enough. The situation can be reflected from the facts of woman's social
life.
Firstly, in many rural areas, the problem of looking down on female
children is very serious.
To give birth to a boy, peasants run here and there to escape the
punishment of the authorities, and a few people even throw the newly-born girl
baby in the open. Moreover, to the children's education, the parents adopt quite
different attitudes. If their money is limited, they always send the boys to
school ad let the girls stay at home to earn money. They often say, "Daughters
eventually will belong to others.
Though some female students are lucky enough to enter college, they will
force the problem of employment after their graduation. Most companies would
rather accept boys. About this they have many so-called excuses. If the female
employees get married, they will have much trouble. They will need a long time
to take a care of the baby. Some women who have been accepted by the company
will have few chances to be trained or promoted for the same reason. Now among
the senior leaders of the state there are only a few women, so many important
policies will not reflect women's thoughts and desires.
12) MY VIEW ON TELEVISION
The advent of Television has exerted a strong influence on our lives. But
in my view, Television watching should be minimized if we want to live a more
meaningful and healthy life. The reasons are as follows: |
