But with the develo
18、pment of economy, people want to live comfortably and freely, and university dormitories, with their crowded space and strict discipline, obviously cannot satisfy this demand. Many students begin to rent houses out of campus. This naturally causes much debate. In my opinion, living on campus is much
19、 better than living away from universities because it helps students with their study, their life as well as their understanding of the society. First of all, living on campus can help students study better. Those who prefer living off campus usually say that living in a rented fiat means that they
20、can manage their own time without interruption from others, and this can help their study. / These may be true; but by living on campus, students can stay closer to study facilities such as the library and the language lab, thus getting more information and training. / Besides, they can have more di
21、scussion and group activities, and this is very important to putting knowledge to use. Moreover, living on campus can help students live a richer life. / Students who live off campus say that they can stay closer to shopping centers or cinemas, so they can enjoy a colorful life rather than the borin
22、g life at school. / But this is wrong. Shopping or seeing movies is not the lifestyle suitable to students because they are distractive, time consuming and expensive. / On the other hand, there are a lot of facilities on campus which promise a colorful life. For example, on most campuses students ca
23、n find cinemas, swimming pool, tennis courts, etc. These facilities are less expensive or even free. / What“s more, there are usually some clubs on campus where students can learn from one another, but students can seldom do so if they live off campus. Lastly, living on campus can help create real f
24、riendship. / Students who prefer to live away from school argue that they can stay closer to the society, meeting different kinds of people, and become more mature. But this again is a misconception./ On one hand, they cannot spend enough time on these people, therefore cannot really know them well
25、enough. / On the other hand, as university students are young, they should first learn to stay with people of similar age. By living in the same place for four years, students can learn to observe, understand, and deal with different kinds of contemporaries, and build real friendship with some of th
26、em. This is more important than staying with various residents in the same building. There is no denying that university students are adults, and their freedom and rights should be respected. The recent decision of the Ministry of Education is exactly a case to the point. / But considering the benef
27、its on students“ study, life and understanding of the society, I strongly suggest those who plan to live off campus thinking before they leap. / Anyway, for university students, university is their home, and as the saying goes, “East or west, home is the best“.2.As a major of English language and li

31、 novels used to be a major entertainment for people in the 19th century and before. But since the invention of film at the end of the 19th century, people have gradually abandoned novels for movies to enjoy new stories. Nowadays novel readers are on a decline. However, if I were to make a choice bet
32、ween reading a novel and seeing a movie for a story I have never heard of, I would still prefer the former. The first reason to account for my preference of novels is that I can get the real story. / As we know, a movie usually lasts for about two hours, and in order to finish the story in such a li
33、mited time, the director has to adapt it, telling only the important part and leaving out much that he thinks as trivial. So what you see in a movie is in fact a partial story. But if you read a novel, you can get every word, and this can promise a more complete understanding of the story. / Besides
34、, a movie is the director“s version of the story, because the director will color the story with his own understanding, sometimes, there may be even adaptation or distortion. In my English literature class, we used to compare the movie of A Passage to India with the novel, and find as many as 26 cha
35、nges, some of which are clear distortions by the director. The second reason is that I can get more enjoyment from reading a novel. / When watching a movie, the story comes in the form of real pictures and sounds. Although it is concrete, it is fixed and allows no more interpretation. But when readi
36、ng a novel, what I get is language, which I can easily turn into varied mental images and thus, appreciate it to a higher degree. / For example, when the story describes a beautiful scene, I can draw it in my mind in a many different ways, and each mental picture can give me a different enjoyment. B
37、ut in movies, there is only one version, so the pleasure is definitely decreased. Lastly, reading novels can help me with my language study. Although watching movies can improve my listening ability, reading novels can provide me with more comprehensive language training. For example, I can learn mo
38、re new words, new sentence patterns. I can learn new ways to try in my writing. / Besides, reading novels takes much more time than watching a movie, and even if the information input is the same, a longer process can definitely help me more. To sum up, I prefer reading a novel to watching a movie b
39、ecause I can get a more real story, more enjoyment, and more language practice. These benefits can be very important for us English majors. I suggest teachers making the better booklist for students in the future, to cultivate in them good reading habits so that they can get more from their four-yea

On the other hand, many employees have also voiced many complaints about new recruits. But the fact is that many graduates can

44、in choosing their jobs. But facts show that a free job market is really a double-edged sword. On one hand, it brings graduates a wider selection of jobs. On the other hand, it imposes higher a requirement on these inexperienced job seekers. Many have failed in interviews; some are performing rather
45、badly on their positions, or get fired soon. To avoid these problems, I think we college students must make at least three efforts to get prepared for the job market. First, we must learn to apply knowledge to practical use. Our future jobs will require much from our knowledge, but the actual way th
46、e knowledge is used may be widely different from class discussion, so only when we can properly apply classroom knowledge to practical use can that knowledge become really useful. / To do this, we should develop the habit of analyzing actual problems with our course knowledge. Many courses include a
47、 component called case study, and this is a valuable opportunity to apply knowledge to practical use. Meanwhile, we can also learn to apply our knowledge to our discussion or reflection of various issues of interest. Besides, we should also learn to cooperate with others. Though the society is becoming increasingly competitive, success in future jobs should really come from competition with opponents and cooperation with colleagues. This is why the concept of teamwork is becoming so popular now. / To get prepared for this, we should learn to get along with classmates
