It is not uncommon to see teenagers smoking today. Causes:

? Peer pressure ? Imitating adults More topics: Popularity of e-books Peer pressure in college

参考作文:

It is not uncommon to see teenagers smoking today. Some of them smoke because of peer pressure. When they see some of their friends smoking, they feel the pressure to try it out in order to “fit in” with the crowd. Some other teenagers smoke because they want to imitate adults or appear to be mature. Teenagers like to imitate their favorite stars and adults around them. So, parents who smoke may set a bad example for their children. In conclusion, the causes of teenager smoking can be attributed to peer pressure and their intention to look like adults.

今天看到青少年吸烟并不罕见。有些人因为同龄人的压力而吸烟。当他们看到一些朋友吸烟时,他们感到有压力去尝试,以便“融入”人群中。有些青少年吸烟是因为他们想模仿成年人或看起来成熟。青少年喜欢模仿他们喜欢的明星和周围的成年人。所以,吸烟的父母可能给孩子树立了坏榜样。总之,青少年吸烟的原因可以归因于同龄人的压力和他们看起来像成年人的意图。

What is culture shock? Example:

Mr. Li's experience on a bus in the US

? Mr. Li meant to give his seat to an elderly man on a bus. ? The elderly man refused to take the seat. ? Mr. Li's American friends explained why. Conclusion:

Culture shock is the feeling of confusion and anxiety when you encounter situations where the cultural norms in your culture no longer apply.

参考作文:

What is culture shock? When he first visited the US, Mr. Li was

confused on a bus. He offered his seat to an elderly man, but the man seemed annoyed and refused to take the seat. Later Mr. Li's American friends explained to him that in the US it is not advisable, and even offensive, to offer your seat to elderly people. This is very different from China, where people are encouraged to do so. From the example we can see that culture shock is the feeling of confusion and anxiety when you encounter situations where the cultural norms in your culture no longer apply.
