No.1 Opportunity and Success
Opportunities don/'t come often. They come every once
in a while. Very often, they come quietly and go by without
being noticed. Therefore ,it is advisable that you should
value and treat them with care.
When an opportunity comes, it brings a promise but
never realizes it on its own. If you want to achieve something
or intend to fulfill one of your ambitious, you must work
hard, make efforts and get prepared. Otherwise, you will
take no advantage of opportunities when they come to visit
you.
The difference between a man who succeeds and one
who does not lies only in the way each treats opportunities.
The successful person always makes adequate preparations
to meet opportunities as they duly arrive. The unsuccessful
person, on the other hand, works little and just waits to
see them pass by.
In my opinion, there are plenty of opportunities
for everyone in our society, but only those who are prepared adequately and
qualified highly can make use of them to
achieve their purpose.

No.2 On Developing Tourism
Tourism, a "smokeless industry", is developing rapidly
in China. With the open and reform policy being carried out, thousands upon
thousands of foreign visitors are crowding into
our country. The are eager to see this old mysterious land
with a splendid culture of more than 5000 years.
Tourism brings China a lot of benefits. First it enables
the Chinese people to know more about the outside world and
promotes friendship and mutual understanding. Second ,it is financially bene
ficial to China, which needs more foreign
currencies for its modernization program.
Tourism, however, gives rise to a number of problems. For instance, it b
ecomes a burden to our inefficient transportation system. Besides, the livin
g standard of the average Chinese is still not high enough to be able to aff
ord the many different sorts of expenses during long distance travels.
As for me, I believe that with the development of our national economy,
all these problems will certainly be solved step by step. A much better and
brighter future awaits us.

No.3 The Value of Time
As a popular saying goes, "Time is money. "In fact, time is more preciou
s than money. When money is spent, you can earn it back if you want to. Howe
ver, when time is gone, it will never come back.
As the pace of modern life continues to accelerate ,the
time at our disposal is quite limited. But there are a lot of
things to be done in our lives. We should make full use of our
time to fulfil what is useful to us. For instance, as students we should dev
ote most of our time to our academic studies. In this way we can acquire new
knowledge and skill necessary for our future carrier.
In my opinion, wasting time means wasting our valuable life. But many of
us don/'t realize this .They think time is inexhaustable. I/'m not in favor o
f such of a view .Hence ,my conclusion is that we should never put off what
can be today until tomorrow.

No.4 Are Prizes a Good Thing?
Nobody denies that competitions with prizes can bring people/'s initiativ
e into full play. Encouraged by a strong desire to win a prize, one will go
all out to seek his greatest success. Consequently, the best achievements wi
ll be obtained in a game with awards.
However, the prompting of a prize does not always lead to desirable resu
lts. For example, a competitor who cannot overcome the temptation of a prize
is likely to take a stimulant .And the hopeless competitor sees nothing but
the prize, which might cause improper behavior.
In my opinion, the remedy lies in moral education of competitors. This w
ill help them to understand the slogan: "Friendship--first, and competition-
-second. "Then, prices will play a better part in any contest. Generally spe
aking, I believe that prizes are a good thing.

No.5 On Keeping a Diary in English
Keeping a diary in English is one of the effective ways to improve our E
nglish writing ability. Compared with other forms of writing, it is shorter
and takes less time. It can help us to cultivate the habit of thinking in En
glish. If we persist in this practice, gradually we/'ll learn how to express
ourselves in English.
In keeping a diary in English, we inevitably run up against a lot of dif
ficulties .In the first place, it often happens that we have trouble finding
appropriate words and phases to give expression to our mind. Secondly , the
re are many idiomatic ways of saying things in Chinese. And it is extremely
hard for us to put them into English properly. Certainly, there are some oth
er roadblocks we may come across in our keeping a diary in English.
As far as I/'m concerned, my suggestion is that we should always have a n
otebook and a Chinese-English dictionary within easy reach. Whenever somethi
ng beats us, we can first put it down in our notebook and then consult our d
ictionary. We can also turn to our English teacher for help, if necessary. I
n short, I believe that it is of great use to keep a diary in English for th
e development of our writing skills.

No.6 On University Tuition System in China
Tuition system has become one of the hottest topics in China since it wa
s put into effect. Different people have different opinions on it.
Some people think that there is no university in the world which is open
to students without tuition. As far as China is concerned, it is a developi
ng country with the largest population in the world. The government is unabl
e to allocate enough funds to pay for various teaching facilities and many d
ifferent kinds of expenses. One of the ways to relieve the problem is for st
udents to pay tuition. The money raised in this way can be used to improve t
he conditions for running schools.
Others ,however, are opposed to the tuition system. They argue that the
living standard of the Chinese people ,especially of those in the poor rural
areas, is still low, compared with that in the Western World. The universit
y tuition will certainly add to the already heavy burden of the parents, who
live on their salaries or wages. Moreover, tuition may become an obstacle t
o the development of China/'s higher education. This is because it hinders so
me talented people from entering the university just on account of their pov
erty.
