Recently we have had a hot discussion about whether we should talk with each other in our free period. Our opinions were divided into two parts.

About 45% of the students in our class think we can discuss in the free period. A student can find a better way if he discusses with other students when faced with a difficult problem. Besides, what he learns from others will be remembered for a long time. They think it is a good way to study efficiently.

The rest think it is bad for us to discuss in the free period. In their opinion, everyone should keep quiet in the free period. If two or three students discuss something, others will be disturbed. In other words, other students can’t consider their problems independently, thus having a bad effect on their studies. [答案] 60.【参考范文】

Nowadays, there are more and more people owning private cars. Is it good or bad to have a private car? There are some advantages. First, it can provide you with convenience. If you have a car, you can go wherever you want quickly and safely. Second, it can help you save a lot of time which may be wasted waiting for other vehicles. And it also gives you a sense of independence.

However, it also has disadvantages to have a private car. For example, sometimes it is difficult for you to find a parking place. What’s more, the expenses are high, such as paying for petrol and all the repairs your car needs. The most dangerous thing is that it is possible for you to cause some accidents.

So maybe it is better for people to take public transportation. [答案] 61.【参考范文】 Dear new friends,

Recent research has been done on how middle school students prefer to communicate with each other. It shows that they prefer modern ways instead of traditional ways. Of the 54 students interviewed, 10 of them said that they often called each other. 21 preferred using text messages while 20 were fans of QQ. Only three students said they liked to write letters.

With the development of technology, new ways of communication have become popular. They are more convenient and faster, but I think the traditional ways shouldn’t be abandoned. For example, handwriting is more personal compared with typing. It is also nice to hear the voice of a friend when you are frustrated.

When we are enjoying the comfort and convenience, don’t forget those things that can touch your heart.

I am at a loss nowadays.

My parents and my teacher have different opinions about my major. My parents think I should major in International Economics and Trade, maybe I can make a lot of money. On the other hand, my teacher doesn’t agree. He says I should choose Software Engineering as a result of my high intelligence. Writing the software is very popular in the future and if I choose it, there is no difficulty in finding a good job.

Despite their opinions, I want to learn Environmental Science. I see so many pollutions, air pollution, water pollution, that I’d like to do something for my hometown. However, I dare not tell my parents and teacher about my opinion.

What should I do? Could you give me some advice?

[答案] 65.【参考范文】 Dear Editor, I’m writing to you about the industrial area which will be built near our town. Recently the local government has decided to build an industrial area, which has aroused a heated argument. Some agree that we should build the industrial area. If we do so, many new jobs can be created, which will increase people’s income and improve their living standards. What’s more, it can push the development of the local economy and the natural resources can also be made good use of. But others oppose the idea, because they think it will pollute the environment. They believe that it will produce noise which will disturb people’s peaceful life. Furthermore, a lot of farmland will be built on.

Personally, I agree with the second view. Economic development should never be at the cost of the environment. We must pay attention to sustainable development so that we’ll have a better hometown in the future. Yours truly, Jiang Feng

[答案] 66.【参考范文】 Dear Mike,

I am so glad to receive your letter. I think I can give you some help. Here is something I know about Confucius Institutes.

The first Confucius Institute was founded in 2004 as a tool to help non-native speakers to learn the Chinese language. In order to meet the increasing demands of learning the Chinese language, 271 such institutes have been set up in more than 70 countries and regions. About 100, 000 people have attended courses. Confucius Institutes around the world help them to learn the Chinese language and look for the friendship between China and the rest of the world. Confucius Institutes have been playing the role of a bridge to develop understanding between the Chinese and the people in other parts of the world.

I don’t know if I wrote enough. If you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to write to me.

Best wishes! Yours, Liu Liang [答案] 67.【参考范文】 Dear Sir, I am a senior student of our school. I’d like to say something about the canteen service in our school. Generally speaking, the service is satisfactory. The hall is clean and tidy. The dishes look inviting and taste delicious as well. What’s more, the workers there treat us as their friends, which makes us feel very happy.

However, we feel the price of the meal is a little too high. Besides, we can only have a limited variety of dishes with little change every week. In addition, we often have to stand in line for a long time before we can get the meal. You could understand how precious time is to us students. Therefore, may I suggest something be done to solve the problems so that we can all enjoy our meals at school?

Thanks for your consideration. Sincerely, Yang Yun [答案] 68.【参考范文】

Failure is so common a thing in our life as we will surely meet with. What we should do is taking an active attitude towards failure.

Then how should we face failure? When faced with failure, some people become frustrated and lose their self-confidence. They refuse to make any further efforts. These people will probably never achieve success. Some people just don’t fear failure. They firmly believe that failure is the mother of success. As a result, not only can failure not stop them, but they draw useful lessons from it and try even harder. Such people are sure to succeed someday.

As for me, failure can never discourage me but only enrich my experience. With this positive attitude in mind, I will try hard and I’m sure I will succeed in the end. [答案] 69.【参考范文】 Dear Manager,

I am writing to say something about your service. Generally speaking, the service was far from satisfactory. Firstly, it was agreed that the travel agency would pay for all the tickets, but the guide asked us to pay for some of the tickets. Secondly, we were told that we could visit 8 scenic spots during the trip. However, we were only shown around 6 of them. Thirdly, we were extremely disappointed at the poor food service and conditions of the hotels we stayed in. Worst of all, your guide was rather rude because she even quarreled with us several times when we questioned her about the service. I do hope you can look into the matter. Looking forward to your reply. Yours sincerely, Wang Gang [答案] 70.【参考范文】 Dear Mr. Lee,

I would like to know if I could ask for a casual leave for a week, from April 2nd to April 9th. This morning I received a telephone call from my classmate Mike, telling me that an accident happened to him on his way to school. He was badly hurt and needed an operation as soon as possible. His parents are on business in another town, and they can’t come here for the time being. So I have to ask for a week’s leave.

By the way, I am on duty this week. Would you please ask my deskmate to take my place? I apologize for the inconvenience to you and our class. I’ll be back once the situation becomes better.

I would be very thankful if you can give me your permission. Thanks. Yours, Xie Li
