Any government, which is blind to this point, may pay a big price. 任何政府忽视这一点都将付出巨大的代价。 15. Nowadays, many students always go into raptures at the mere mention of the coming life of high school or college they will begin. Unfortunately, for most young people, it is not a pleasant experience on their first day on campus. 当前，一提到即将开始的学校生活，许多学生都会兴高采烈。然而，对多数年轻人来说，校园刚开始的日子并不是什么愉快的经历。 16.

This view is now being questioned by more and more people. 这一观点正受到越来越多人的质疑。 32. Although many people claim that, along with the rapid economic development, the number of people who use bicycles is decreasing and bicycles are bound to be replaced. The information I've collected over the recent years leads me to believe that bicycles will continue to play an extremely important role in the modern society. 尽管许多人认为随着经济的高速发展，用自行车的人数会减少，自行车可能会消亡， 然而，这几年我收集的一些信息让我相信自行车仍然会继续在现代社会发挥极其重要的作用。 33.

Despite many obvious advantages of the bicycle, it is not without its problems. 尽管自行车有许多明显的优点，但是它也存在它的问题。 37. Bicycles can't be compared with other means of transportation like cars and trains for speed and comfort. 在速度和舒适度方面，自行车是无法和汽车、火车这样的交通工具相比的。 38. From what has been discussed above, we may safely draw the conclusion that advantages of bicycles far outweigh their disadvantages and they will still play essential roles in the modern society. 通过以上讨论，我们可以得出结论：自行车的优点远大于缺点，并且在现代社会它仍将发挥重要作用。 39. There is a general discussion these days over education in many colleges and institutes. One of the questions under debate is whether education is a lifelong study. 当前在高校和研究机构对教育存在着大量争论，其中一个问题就是教育是否是个终身学习的过程。 40. This issue has caused a wide public concern. 这个问题已经引起了广泛关注。 41. It must be noted that learning must be done by a person himself. 必须指出学习只能靠自己。 42. A large number of people tend to live under the illusion that they had completed their education when they finish their schooling. Obviously, they have failed to realize that education is a lifelong process. 许多人存在这样的误解，认为离开学校就意味着结束了他们的教育。显然，他们忽视了教育是一辈子的事。 43. As for me, I'm in favor of the opinion that education is not completed with graduation, and the reasons are as follows.
44. It is a common sense that no college or university can promise that they can teach the students all knowledge needed in the future by the time they graduate. 高校是不可能在学生毕业的时候教会他们将来需要的所有知识的，这是常识。 45. Even the best possible graduate needs to continue learning after graduation. 即使最优秀的毕业生在毕业后也要不断地学习。 46. It is commonly thought that our society has been dramatically changed by modern science and technology, and humans have made extraordinary progress over the past decades. 人们普遍认为我们的现代科技使我们的社会发生了巨大的变化，近几十年人类取得了惊人的进步。 47.

Just as an old saying goes: it is never too late to learn. 对于那些想过上健康而有意义的生活的人们来说，找时间学习一些新知识是很重要的，正如那句老话：活到老，学到老。 51. There is a general debate on the campus today over the phenomenon of college or high school students' doing a part-time job. 对于大学或高中生打工这一现象，校园里进行着广泛的争论。 52. By taking a major-related part-job, students can not only improve their academic studies, but gain important experiences they will never be able to get from the textbooks. 通过做一份和专业相关的工作，学生不仅能够提高他们的专业能力，而且能获得从课本上得不到的经验。 53. Although people’s lives have been dramatically changed over the past decades, it must be admitted that shortage of funds is still the one of the biggest problems that students nowadays have to face because tuition fees and prices of books are soaring. 近几十年，尽管人们的生活有了惊人的改变，但必须承认，由于学费和书费日益飞涨，资金短缺仍然是学生们面临的最大问题之一。 54. Consequently, the extra money obtained from part-time jobs will strongly support students to continue to their study. 因此，业余工作挣来的钱将强有力地支持学生们继续他们的求学。 55. From what has been discussed above, we may safely draw a conclusion that part-time jobs can produce a far-reaching impact on students and they should be encouraged to take part-time jobs which will benefit students, their families, and even the society as a whole. 通过上面的讨论，我们不难得出结论：业余工作对学生们会产生深远的影响，我们应鼓励学生从事业余工作，这将有利于学生和他们的家庭，甚至整个社会。 56. These days, people in growing numbers are complaining that work is more stressful and less leisurely than in the past. Many experts point out that, along with the development of the modern society, it is an inevitable result and there is no way to avoid it. 现在，越来越多的人们开始抱怨工作比以前更有压力。许多专家指出这是现代社会发展必然的结果，无法避免。 57. It is widely acknowledged that computers and other machines have become indispensable to our society, for they make our life and work more comfortable and less laborious. 人们普遍认为计算机和其它机器已经成为我们社会必不可少的一部分。 它们使我们的生活更舒适，减少了大量劳动。 58. At the same time, along with the benefits of such machines, employees must acquire relevant knowledge to control the machines. 同时，随着这些机器带给我们的好处，员工们也必须要学习与之相关的知识以便使用它们。 59. No one can deny the basic fact that it is impossible for average workers to master those high-technology skills easily. 没有人能否认这一基本事实：对于一般工人来讲，轻松掌握这些技术是不可能的。 60. In the second place, there does not seem to be enough job opportunities, resulting in the rise of unemployment. 第二方面，似乎没有足够的工作岗位, 这直接导致了失业率的攀升。 61. Millions of people have to spend more time and energy on learning new skills so that they can keep a favorable position in the job market. 成千上万的人们不得不花费更多的精力和时间学习新的技术知识，使得他们在就业市场能保持优势。 62. According to a recent survey, a growing number of people express a strong desire to take another job or to spend more time on their job in order to get more money to support their families. 根据最近的一项调查，越来越多的人表达了想从事另外的工作或加班以赚取更多的钱来补贴家用的强烈愿望。 63. From what has been discussed above, I am fully convinced that the leisure life-style is undergoing a decline with the progress of the modern society, which is not necessarily a bad thing. 通过以上讨论，我完全相信，随着现代社会的进步，幽闲的生活方式正在消失并不是件坏事。 64. The problem of international tourism has caused a wide public concern over the recent years. 近些年，国际旅游的问题引起了广泛关注。 65. Many people believe that international tourism exerts positive effects on the economic growth and the local government should be encouraged to promote international tourism. 许多人认为国际旅游对经济发展有积极作用，应鼓励地方政府发展国际旅游。 66. But what these people fail to see is that international tourism may bring about disastrous impacts on the environment and the local culture. 但是这些人忽视了国际旅游可能会给当地环境和文化造成的灾难性的影响。 67. As for me, I'm firmly convinced that the number of foreign tourists should be limited for the following reasons. 就我而言，我坚定地认为国外旅游者的数量应得到限制，理由如下： 68. In addition, in order to attract tourists, a lot of new facilities have been built, which has certain unfavorable effects on the environment. 另外，为了吸引旅游者，大量人工设施被修建，这对环境是不利的。 69. For lack of a distinct culture, some places will be attractive to tourists any more. Consequently, the fast rise in the number of foreign tourists may eventually lead to the shrinking of the local tourism. 由于缺乏独特的文化，一些地方不再吸引旅游者。因此，国外旅游者数量的快速增加可能最终会导致当地旅游业的衰败。 70. There is a growing tendency for parents to expect their children to be involved in some extra educational programs over the recent years. 近些年，父母要求他们的孩子接受额外的教育呈增长的势头。 71. This phenomenon has caused a wide public concern in many places of the world. 这一现象在全世界许多地方已引起了广泛关注。 72. Many parents believe that additional educational activities enjoy obvious advantages. By extra studies, they maintain, their children are able to obtain some practical skills and useful knowledge, which will put them in a favorable position in the job market when they grow up. 许多家长相信额外的教育活动有许多优点，通过学习，他们的孩子可以获得很多实践技能和有用的知识，当他们长大后，这些对他们就业是大有好处的。 73. In the first place, extra studies bring about unfavorable impacts on the physical growth of the children. Educational experts point out that, it is equally important to take some sports activities instead of studies after the children have spent a whole day in the classroom. 首先，额外的学习对孩子们的身体发育是不利的。教育专家指出，孩子们在教室里呆了一整天后，从事一些体育活动，而不是额外的学习，是非常重要的。 74. Children are undergoing fast physical development; lack of physical exercise may have disastrous influences on their later life. 孩子们正处于身体快速发育时期，缺乏体育锻炼可能会对他们未来的生活造成严重的影响。 75. In the second place, from psychological aspect, the majority of children seem to be of no interest in additional educational activities. 第二，从心理上讲，大部分孩子似乎对额外的学习没有什么好感。 76. It is hard to imagine how they feel to be forced to focus on the textbooks while other children are playing. 当别的孩子在玩耍的时候，很难想象一个学生能集中精力在课本上。 77. Moreover, children will have less time to play and communicate with their peers due to extra studies; consequently, it is difficult for them to develop their characters and interpersonal skills. They may become more solitary and even suffer from certain mental illness. 而且，由于要额外地学习，孩子们没有多少时间和同龄的孩子玩耍和交流，很难培养他们的个性和交际能力。他们可能变得孤僻甚至产生某些心理疾病。 78. From what has been discussed above, we may safely draw the conclusion that, although extra studies indeed enjoy many obvious advantages, its disadvantages shouldn't be ignored and far outweigh its advantages. It is not wise to force children to take extra studies after school. 通过以上讨论，我们可以得出结论：尽管额外学习的确有很多优点，但它的缺点不可忽视，且远大于它的优点。因此，放学后强迫孩子额外学习是不明智的。 79. Any parents should place considerable emphasis on their children to keep the balance between studying and playing. As an old saying goes: All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. 任何家长都应非常重视保持孩子在学习与玩耍的平衡，正如那句老话：只工作，不玩耍，聪明的孩子会变傻。 80. These days, a growing number of mothers or fathers prefer to stay at home looking after their children instead of returning to work earlier. 现在，越来越多的母亲或者父亲选择留在家里照顾他们的孩子而不愿过早返回工作岗位。 81. Parents are firmly convinced that sending their children to kindergartens or nursery schools will have unfavorable influences on the growth of the children. 父母们坚定地相信把孩子送到幼儿园对他们的成长不利。 82. However, this idea is now being questioned by more and more experts who point out that it is not good for children to stay with their parents at home all the time. 然而，这一想法正遭受越来越多的专家的质疑，他们指出，孩子总是呆在家里，和父母在一起时不好的。 83. Although parents would be able to devote much more time and energy to their children, it must be admitted that parents have little experience and knowledge on how to educate and supervise the children when compared with teachers working in kindergartens or nursery schools. 尽管父母能在他们孩子身上投入更多时间和精力，但是必须承认，与工作在幼儿园的专职教师相比，他们在如何管理教育孩子方面缺乏知识和经验。 84. From what has been discussed above, we may safely draw a conclusion that, although the parents' desire to look after the children by themselves is understandable, the disadvantages of this practice far outweigh the advantages. 通过以上讨论，我们可以得出如下结论：尽管家长想亲自照看孩子的愿望是可以理解的，但是这样做的缺点远大于优点。 85. Parents should be encouraged to send their children to nursery schools, which will bring about profound impacts on children and families, and even the society as a whole. 应该鼓励父母将他们的孩子送到幼儿园，这将对孩子，家庭，甚至整个社会产生深远的影响。 86. Many government officers always go into raptures at the mere mention of artistic and cultural projects. They are forever talking about the nice parks, the smart sculptures in the central areas of the city and the art galleries with rarities. Nothing, they maintain, is more essential than such projects in the development of a city. 只要一提起艺术和文化项目，一些政府领导就会兴奋不已，他们滔滔不绝地说着美丽的公园，城市中心漂亮的雕塑，还有满是稀世珍宝的艺术展览馆。他们认为在一个城市的发展中，没有什么比这些艺术项目更重要了。 87. But is it really the case? The information I've collected over years makes me believe that artistic and cultural projects may be less useful than many people think. In fact, basic infrastructure projects are playing extremely important roles and should be given the priority. 这是真的吗？这些年我收集的信息让我相信这些文化、艺术项目并没有许多政府想象的那么重要。事实上，基础设施建设非常重要，应该放在首位。 88. Those who are in favor of artistic and cultural projects advocate that better cultural environment will attract more tourists, which will bring huge profits to the local residents. Some people even equate such projects with the improvement of the economic situation. 那些赞成建设文化艺术项目的人认为好的文化环境会吸引更多的游客，这将给当地居民带来巨大的利益。一些人甚至把建设文化艺术项目与发展经济建设等同起来。 89. Unfortunately, there is little evidence showing that big companies are willing to invest huge sums of money in a place without sufficient basic projects, such as the supply of electricity and water. 然而，很少有证据表明大公司愿意把巨额的资金投到一个连水电这些基础设施都不完善的地方去。 90. From what has been discussed above, it would be reasonable to believe that basic projects play far more important roles than artistic and cultural projects in people's lives and the economic growth. 通过以上讨论，我们有理由相信在人们的生活和经济发展方面，基础建设比艺术文化项目发挥更大的作用。 91. Those urban planners who are blind to this point will pay a heavy price which they cannot afford. 那些城市的规划者们如果忽视这一点，将会付出他们无法承受的代价。 92. There is a growing tendency these days for many people living in rural areas to come and work in cities. This problem has caused a wide public concern in most cities all over the world. 农民进城打工正成为增长的趋势，这一问题在世界上大部分城市已引起普遍关注。 93. An investigation shows that many migrant workers think that working in the cities provides them with not only a higher salary but the opportunity to learn new skills. 一项调查显示许多民工认为在城市打工不仅有较高的收入，而且能学到一些新技术。 94. It must be noted that the improvement in agriculture doesn’t seem be able to catch up with the increase in the population of the rural areas and there are millions of peasants who still lead a miserable life. 必须指出，农业的发展似乎赶不上农村人口的增加，并且仍有成千上万的农民过着贫寒生活。 95. Although migrant workers contribute greatly to the economic growth of the cities, they may inevitably bring about many negative impacts. 尽管民工对城市的经济发展做出了巨大贡献，然而他们也不可避免的带来了一些负面影响。 96. Many sociologists point out that migrant workers are making things from bad to worse: putting more pressure on the population control and the security of the society, threatening to take the few jobs from the job seekers in the city, and worsening the traffic and public health problems. 许多社会学家指出民工使得城市雪上加霜：给人口控制和社会治安带来更大压力，威胁着本已萧条的工作市场，恶化交通和公共卫生状况。 97. It is suggested that governments ought to make efforts to reduce the increasing gap between cities and countryside. They ought to set aside an appropriate fund for the improvement of the standard of peasants' lives. Besides, they ought to invite some experts in agriculture to share their experiences, information and knowledge with peasants, which will contribute directly to the economic growth of the rural areas. 建议政府应该努力减少正在拉大的城乡差距。应该划拨适当的资金提高农民的生活水平；应该邀请农业专家向农民介绍他们的经验，知识和信息，这些将有助于发展农村经济。 98. In conclusion, we must think about this problem rationally and place more emphases on peasants' lives. Any government that is blind to this point will pay a heavy price. 总之，我们应理智考虑这一问题，重视农民的生活。任何政府忽视这一点都将付出巨大的代价。 99. Although many experts from universities and institutes consistently maintain that it is an inevitable part of an independent life, parents in growing numbers begin to realize that people, including teachers and experts in education, should pay considerable attention to this problem. 尽管来自高校和研究院的许多专家坚持认为这是独立生活不可避免的一部分，然而越来越多的家长开始意识到包括教师和教育专家在内的人们应该认真对待这一问题。 100. As for me, I think it is essential to know, at first, the problems young students would be faced with on the campus. 我认为，首先应看看学生们在校园可能遇到哪些问题。 101. In addition to the obvious problem——loneliness, another major obstacle, in my opinion, is the alien environment of the campus. 除了孤独这一明显的问题之外，我认为另一个困难是对校园环境的不熟悉。 102. Freshmen often get lost on the campus, failing to find the way to the dormitory or the library. 新生常常在校园迷路，不知道去宿舍或图书馆该怎么走。 103. What’s worse, being away from their hometown and parents, quite a number of students might get homesick very often, which invariably hinders them from focusing on their studies. 更糟的是，离开了家乡和父母，很多学生经常得忍受思家之苦，这可能会导致他们难以集中精力学习。 104. In the first place, colleges should provide far more services to help the freshmen to get used to the new life as soon as possible. 首先，学校应提供更多的服务，帮助新生尽快适应新的生活。 105. The senior students should be encouraged to share their own experiences on how to overcome the difficulties and how to adjust to the new environment. 高年级学生可以与新生一起分享他们的经历：如何克服遇到的困难，如何适应新的环境。 106. At the same time, young people should be encouraged to communicate with their peers and develop their interpersonal skills, which may help them greatly reduce the dependence on their parents and are essential in the maintenance of the healthy mental conditions. 同时，应该鼓励年轻人和他们的同龄人交往，发展他们的交际能力，这将帮助他们极大地减少对父母的倚赖并且保持健康的精神状态。 107. In conclusion, we must lay emphasis on this problem and make our maximum contribution to help them spend their first days on the campus smoothly. 总之，我们应重视这个问题，尽最大努力帮助他们平稳度过他们最初的校园生活。 108. There is a general discussion over fashion in recent years. One of the questions under debate is whether a person should choose comfortable clothes, which he or she likes, regardless of fashion. 近些年，关于时尚存在着广泛的争论。其中一个问题就是一个人是否应选择他喜欢的舒适的衣服，而不管是否时尚。 109. This issue is becoming a matter of concern for more and more people, especially for parents and experts in education. 这一问题已被越来越多的人所关注，尤其是父母和教育专家。 110. Many young people always go into raptures at the merely mention of buying fashion clothes. And they seem to be attracted by the colorful materials and the various styles. Nothing, they maintain, can be compared with fashion clothes. In fact, fashion clothes have become indispensable in youngster's lives. 许多年轻人一提到时尚服装就兴高采烈。他们似乎被时尚服装那多彩的面料，各种不同的款式所吸引。 111. Many people seem to overlook the basic fact: the major function of clothes is to keep us warm and comfortable. 许多人似乎忽视了这个基本事实：衣服的基本功能是保持我们舒适和温暖。 112. Furthermore, trying to impress others by wearing stylish clothes, people who are crazy about fashion clothes have to spend more time going shopping. As a result, it is impossible for them to devote enough time and energy in their studies and jobs. 而且，沉湎于时尚服装的人们不得不花费更多时间逛商店，更加注意自己给别人的印象。因此，他们不可能有足够的时间用于学习或工作。 113. No one can doubt the essential fact that the traffic problems have caused a wide public concern all over the world. And experts in increasing numbers are firmly believed that such situations might have serious social consequences. 没有人能否认这一重要事实：交通问题在全世界已经受到了普遍关注。越来越多的专家相信这种状况将产生严重后果。 114. There are several reasons for this problem. One of the main reasons is that the number of vehicles is increasing much more rapidly than the construction of roads. Another primary reason is that there seems to be too many private cars and not enough public buses. 关于这个问题，有很多原因。一个主要原因是车辆增加的数量远快于道路的建设。另一个主要原因是私家车过多而公交车不够。 115. Meanwhile, the numbers of people, who have their own cars, have risen sharply in the recent years. 同时，拥有私人轿车的人数这几年却在快速增加。 116. Moreover, many people, including drivers and cyclists, do not obey the traffic rules properly, especially at busy intersections. And this undoubtedly is making things from bad to worse. 而且，许多人，包括司机和骑自行车的人，不能很好地遵守交通规则，特别是在繁忙的十字路口，这无疑使本已严重的状况雪上加霜。 117. The number of private cars in urban areas should be limited while the number of public buses should be increased. 在城市私人轿车的数量应得到控制而公交车的数量应该增加。 118. When asked what kinds of schools they are willing to send their children to attend, many parents say they would choose boarding schools rather than day schools for their children. 当问到愿意将孩子送到哪种学校的时候，许多父母认为他们会选择寄宿学校而不 是日制学校。 119. Many surveys show that people in increasing numbers are beginning to recognize that boarding schools provide better environment and facilities for children. 许多调查显示越来越多的人开始意识到寄宿学校能给他们的孩子提供较好的学习环境和设施。 120. At the same time, there are still many people holding the belief that day schools are extremely important for the growth of the children. 同时，仍有许多人认为日制学校对孩子的成长发挥着极其重要的作用。 121. On the one hand, it is indisputable that boarding schools are exerting positive influences, especially in the past few years. 一方面，寄宿学校正在发挥积极作用，尤其是最近几年，这是无可争辩的。 122. Being away from their parents, students attending a boarding school would become extraordinarily independent. 离开父母上寄宿学校的学生将会变得特别独立。 123. What's more, living in the school can save them a great deal of time every day, for they won’t have to commute between home and school. So they would be able to concentrate on their academic work. 而且，生活在学校里能节省大量每天往返于学校和家的路上的时间，这会使他们有更多的时间和精力放在学习上。 124. However, the contribution of day schools can't be ignored. 另一方面，日制学校的贡献是不能忽视的。 125. Due to the high tuition fees, most ordinary families cannot afford to send their children to boarding schools. 因为较高的学费，大部分普通家庭支付不起他们的孩子上寄宿学校的费用。 126. Since it is unnecessary to worry about students’ everyday life, day schools can lay more stress on teaching. 由于无需考虑学生的日常生活，日制学校可以将更多注意力放在教学上。 127. Furthermore, students living in their own places would have access to a comfortable life and more opportunities to communicate with their parents, which have beneficial impacts on the development of their personal characters. 而且，学生生活在自己家中，有舒适的生活，并有更多机会和父母交流，这对他们个性的培养是有利的。 128. From what has been discussed above, we may safely draw the conclusion that both day schools and boarding schools are important. 通过以上讨论，我们可以得出结论，寄宿学校和日制学校都是重要的。 129. There is much discussion over science and technology. One of the questions under debate is whether traditional skills are bound to die out when a country begins to develop modern science and technology. 关于科学技术存在许多争论，其中一个问题是当国家发展现代科学技术时，传统的技术方法是否可能会消亡。 130. As for me, I do not think the declining of traditional skills is a bad thing; it is the result of the progress in the society. 我认为，传统技术方法的消亡不一定是坏事，这是社会进步的自然结果。 131. In the first place, some traditional skills are hampering the progress of human beings. 首先，部分传统技术阻碍人类进步。 132. Although modern science and technology have proved that such methods are absurd, there are still millions of people applying such practices in many remote places nowadays. 尽管现代科学技术已经证明了这些方法是愚昧的，然而在许多偏僻的地方，仍有成千上万的人们在使用这些方法。 133. In the second place, many values of traditional skills are out of date and should be replaced by modern science. 第二点，许多传统技术方法已经过时，应被现代科技所取代。 134. Although many people tend to live under the illusion that traditional skills are still playing extremely important roles in people's lives, increasing evidences show that they are not so useful as many people think. 尽管许多人保持着传统观念，认为传统技术方法在人们生活中仍发挥着重要作用，但是越来越多的证据显示它并没有人们想象的有用。 135. From what has been discussed above, I firmly believe that time will prove that traditional technology and methods would die out with the development of modern science and technology.
