Some people believe that lectures
6、 can help students learn more quickly. In contrast, others hold that discussions can stimulate students to learn by themselves. Those who hold the first opinion suggest that students attend more lectures. In their view, by giving lectures teachers pass on what theyve accumulated over years of study
7、and research to the students. However, others think that in a discussion, the teacher usually guides the students instead of dominating them. They argue that to get involved in a discussion, students have to develop their ability to analyze problems independently. In my opinion, I stand on the side
8、of neither idea. First of all, either method has its disadvantages. Furthermore, each student has his or her preference. Thirdly, lectures are preferable to discussions in the teaching of science subjects, and on the contrary, discussions are preferable to lectures in studying the humanities. Theref
9、ore, we should adopt different teaching methods according to different subjects. 【知识模块】 作文 2 【正确答案】 Aging of the Population Population officials and demographers have much to worry about Chinas increasingly aging population. It is estimated that the proportion of people aged 60 or older in China wil
10、l rise to 11.8 percent in 2020. By the middle of this century, people aged beyond 60 will take up 27. 4 percent of the total population that means one out of every four people will be senior! The aging population poses a serious challenge to families and the society. On the one hand, with families b
11、ecoming smaller and living pace escalating, it is even graver for families to care for aged members adequately. On the other hand, aging causes a relative decline in working force. Consequently, the productivity of the whole society will be affected to some extent. The rapidity of the populations ag
12、ing has made it more urgent to adopt counter-measures. There is no doubt that the key is to build a solid economic foundation. Meanwhile, importance should be attached to overall social progress by changing the backward situation in social security, welfare and service. Whats more, family care and c
13、ommunity-based services should also be encouraged. 【知识模块】 作文 3 【正确答案】 Should Food Be Banned on the Subway? Currently, some cities are considering a food ban on subways, which has sparked heated discussion. Some people say food should be banned because of the trash and rats they attract. And, garbage
14、 from discarded food can cause fires. Beyond sanitary and safety concerns, food can also cause fist fights, as was discovered last week by one passenger who criticized a woman eating steamed stuffed bun on the subway. However, some others are opposed to the idea. They argue that people like eating b
15、reakfast in the train because they dont have enough time to eat at their houses or restaurants. Sometimes that may be the only time or meal a transit rider may be able to eat especially when traveling long distances. Besides, there are people, for example, diabetics who do require food at various ti
16、mes to maintain blood-sugar levels. Personally, Im against the ban because of the huge inconvenience it would cause commuters, and the expense involved in enforcing it. Still, I believe we should have a little common courtesy. We all have the responsibility to try to treat our subway system and fell
17、ow riders with respect, and that extends to food as well. 【知识模块】 作文 4 【正确答案】 Publicizing Lists of Uncivilized Residents To improve the behavior of its citizens, the government of x City has teamed with local media to release lists of uncivilized behavior. The lists contain photos and basic informati
18、on of offenders; for example, drivers breaking traffic rules have their license-plate numbers listed along with the time and location of the infraction, which has attracted particular public attention. Some welcome the policy, believing it will deter people from poor behavior. They say that it will
19、force people to behave themselves, or they will risk being named and shamed in the media. However, critics have complained that the initiative is an abuse of administrative power and is irresponsible. Citizens should certainly be held responsible for misconducts, they say, but the government should
20、also create an environment to help people exercise self-discipline. Personally, I agree that citizens should be responsible for their improper behavior but governments also do have a responsibility to improve their management. Besides, according to laws, law enforcement departments are entitled to g
21、ive the proper punishments to violators of public regulations. It is, however, groundless for these governmental organs to publicly disgrace the rule-breakers. 【知识模块】 作文 5 【正确答案】 The Popularity of Sinology In recent years, Sinology, the study of Chinese traditional culture, literature, history and s
22、ociety, has become increasingly popular. It is reported that many primary and secondary schools have set up courses of Sinology, in which students are taught classical works created by Chinese ancient educators and philosophers, like Confucius. Sinology becomes prevalent due to the fact that it is o
23、f vital significance for both the individuals and the society. For one thing, Sinology is the essence of Chinese civilization with more than 5,000 years history. Thus, for individuals, they can enlarge their scope of knowledge, enrich their experience and adapt themselves to the complicated society.
24、 For another, it is acknowledged that the rehabilitation of Sinology can contribute to the establishment of a harmonious society. In my opinion, all Chinese people should inherit the merits of Sinology. In order to achieve such a goal, we can read books by ourselves or attend lectures on this issue. Besides, we have the obligation to popularize and introduce it to the world. Only by doing so can we not only inherit it but also make it glorious and prosperous. 【知识模块】 作文
