9、bout 400 words on the following topic. 1 【正确答案】 Is It Reasonable to Make Drunk Driving a Crime? With the tremendous development of the automobile industry in China, the number of drivers is increasing to a large extent, and so is the traffic accident rate. Currently, the problem of drunk driving has

10、 caught much attention after a series of fatal accidents causing severe casualties. The bloody scenes of accident sites and the death of promising lives have so deeply impressed the public that some people propose drunk driving be made a crime instead of a mere violation of traffic rules. However, t

11、he rationality of such a proposal is also questioned. As for those who support making drunk driving a crime, they believe that only legislation can eliminate the potential hazards brought by such activities from the very beginning. They insist that only moral restrictions are far from enough to prev

12、ent car accidents caused by drunk driving from happening. Drivers always consider themselves as the lucky dogs until real disasters happen. And the penalties for traffic accidents are also too tender to perform the functions of shock and awe. Only when every drunk driving is made a crime will driver

13、s dare not drink before driving. Thus a major factor of traffic accident will be diminished and our transportation environment will be safer. However, many experts argue that the current laws and regulations have strict and precise stipulations on the measurement of penalties of drunk driving and cr

14、imes committed by drunk driving. Drunk driving itself should not be considered as a crime, while the crimes committed in the state of drunk driving will definitely be punished according to current rules. The proposal is a kind of simplification, which ignores the differences between the violation of

15、 laws and crime. In addition, relative regulations should be published to enhance the punishment to those who have the record of drunk driving within a certain period of time, so that the drivers who are prone to drunk driving will pay more attention to their desire of alcohol because of the potenti

16、al punishments. All in all, the debate is still continuing. As for my viewpoint, the penalties of drunk driving should be enhanced so that there will be less tragedies caused by traffic accidents. However, whether a drunk-driving driver should be considered as a criminal or not should depend on spec

17、ific conditions, and drinking itself should not be considered as the only standard of crime. 【知识模块】 作文 2 【正确答案】 On Donation The issue of donation can always arouse great public attention when there is a natural disaster. People will talk about the amount that celebrities donate in the event and thos

18、e with less generosity will be severely scolded by the public. It is true that we are living in a modern society and the noble action like donation should be promoted or upheld as one of the standards in measuring a person. However, donation is not what we can order people to do, but the action cont

19、rolled by the individuals willingness. Firstly, all humans, with no exception to the millionaires, have dominating decisions over their belongings and others have no right to force them to donate their wealth to the society, even if it is with the noblest intention. Nowadays, it is not rare to see d

20、onations in the time of natural disasters and wars, which suggests that people are inclined to do things out of their own willingness, instead of being ordered or pushed by others. The very act of pushing them to donate may trigger their resistance and consequently lead to the opposite direction. Fo

21、r instance, it is appropriate for Warren Buffett and Bill Gates to launch campaigns to encourage rich people to donate their wealth, but if more mandatory requirements were added, rich people would be with rejection at the thought of donation. Therefore, it will be more reasonable and effective to g

22、ive people more choices over whether they want to donate. Secondly, there are deep flaws in the present donation policy; that is, the donations tend to be distributed without clear notification in the public and the donating procedures are often more than complicated. For example, most of the donati

23、ons currently are made by mail payment remittance rather than donating in person, therefore, they will not be directly given to the place in need and people wanting to donate have to undergo a series of procedures. As a result, people are always reluctant to donate for fear of exposing their wealth

24、and the unsuitable usage of their donations on the one hand and the waste of their precious time on the other hand. Such concerns have greatly reduced peoples incentives to donate. In summary, donation, as a humanitarian social relief, if properly used, will help the refugees in times of conflict an

25、d provide assistance to disaster victims. And it cannot be denied that such charity undertakings should be greatly boosted; nevertheless, we should respect peoples right of distributing their own wealth and for the promotion of donation among the society, we should improve the transparency and simpl

26、icity of donation procedures. There is no doubt that this is an effective way to increase peoples incentives to do so. 【知识模块】 作文 3 【正确答案】 Better to Give or to Receive? Jesus told us that “it is more blessed to give than to receive“. The meaning of life is giving, but not receiving. When you were bom

27、, you were unclothed and there were nothing with you. You cant grow up well without the love from your parents and the whole society. I cant agree more that it is better to give than to receive for giving is a wonderful thing. First of all, giving is one of the most valuable ways to establish interp

28、ersonal relationship. If you just focus on what you can take and give nothing, then your relationship with others will become bad and none of your family or friends will feel a thread of warmth from you; while if you extend your hands and your favor to those who badly need it, you will win the respe

29、ct from others through your kindness. Thus when you encounter difficulties one day, others will surely spare no efforts to help you through. Based on this, giving is actually a win-win strategy. Giving is a kind of good deed and can make your life more meaningful, through which you can deeply sense

30、the true value of your life. Giving sometimes is a tiny thing that may cost absolutely nothing. For example, giving a smile to your classmates or workmates every day; giving a hand when someone is in trouble; helping the blind cross the street; writing to your friend who is studying abroad, etc. All

31、 of these are very tiny things for us to do, but for the people who receive them, they are wonderful gifts from the heaven. In addition, the amazing thing about giving is that when you are giving, you are actually receiving at the same time. You are receiving a sense of self-fulfillment and the resp

32、ect from others. Nothing can compare with the sense of satisfaction you get when you know youve helped someone else. And sometimes, your giving can make the world different and even change someones life. That is why when you help someone out of his setbacks, you will feel happy from the bottom of yo

33、ur heart. Actually in this process you are receiving all the time. All in all, giving and receiving are two sides of the same coin, while giving is the premise of receiving. Anyone who is willing to give today, I suppose, will definitely receive double in the future, simply because what goes around

34、comes around! 【知识模块】 作文 4 【正确答案】 Is It Advisable to Look for Friends Online? With the increasingly fast development of the modern society, the Internet has become an indispensable part of our daily life. One thing we can do with it is to make friends. Though many people may consider it unsafe to loo

35、k for friends online, I believe its advantages far outweigh its disadvantages. There are two reasons why it gets my vote. First, Net pals can enrich our knowledge and understanding of the world we are living in. In our daily life, we have little chance to meet people and know different things, and o

36、ur ability to make friends and explore the society is also constrained for one reason or another. Fortunately, by making friends online, we can get to know more people and learn about things that may be impossible for us to meet in real life. Especially for those who have stayed in the ivory tower f

37、or years, it is one of the most effective ways for them to get to know the real world in advance, making preparations for their stepping into the society and beginning to meet all kinds of people in their work and life. Second, sometimes it is easier to find friends online than in real life. As the

38、social competition is becoming more and more intense, interpersonal relationship is also becoming increasingly hard to deal with, to say nothing of the chance of talking heart to heart with people around such as a schoolmate or colleague. In this case, making friends online is not a bad way out. Onl

39、ine friends do not have to talk face to face, so they will not feel embarrassed or uneasy to share sadness with each other as well as happiness; online friends usually do not have conflict of interests, so they feel safe and reassuring to directly pour out problems to and receive sincere suggestions

40、 from each other. As the old saying goes, a friend in need is a friend indeed. Therefore, I dont consider it necessary to define specifically whether the friend is made in the real life or online, as long as we can find a true one. From the above analysis, we can conclude that the Internet is quite

41、a positive means to find pals if we can keep our head and stay away from its unhealthy effects. In other words, all depend on human efforts. Therefore, it would be a great pity if we rejected the alternative way of making friends only because of the possible risks it involves. 【知识模块】 作文 5 【正确答案】 Mor

42、e Space Is Required for Real-Life Communication Nowadays, with the development of social media, especially the network, more and more people, especially teens, tend to use the Internet to communicate with their parents. While some hold that the Internet serves as a very good means of parent-child co

43、mmunication, many others argue that virtual communication online actually undermines parent-child relationship. I am with the latter, believing that more space should be given to real-life communication, which boosts honesty, trust and concentration. Firstly, real-life communication is much better t

44、han communication online in terms of enhancing parent-child relationship, for the former can better guarantee honesty of the communication. Real-life communication is often a combination of verbal communication and body-language communication. And it is often done in an extemporaneous manner. These

45、two factors together ensure that people have little chance to ask for others advice or make up lies or excuses without looking or sounding awkwardly during communication. Therefore, real-life communication itself constitutes a confirmation of honesty. Secondly, real-life communication deserves more

46、attention than online communication, for it can eliminate distrust between parents and children. According to a recent survey, most children feel disgusted if their parents stalk or follow their accounts anonymously on social media. However, what they do not realize is that they barely talk with the

47、ir parents in their daily life and thus parents have to do in that way so as to know them well. Therefore, both sides should talk with each other through real-life communication and distrust between parents and children will be greatly eliminated. The more frequent face-to-face communication is, the

48、 less distrust and conflicts between parents and children will be. Thus, full play should be given to real-life communication. Thirdly, real-life communication is more desirable than online communication for parents and children can concentrate better on it. With the help of multi-model expressions

49、including frequent eye-contacts and body languages, there is little chance for parents or children to be distracted when communicating. However, when communicating online, children may browse other websites, send e-mails or even talk with different people simultaneously, which surely undermines the degree of concentration on each part, making parents feel that they are not important. Thus, in order to improve parent-child relationship, it is better to communicate face-to-face. In a nutshell, compared with communication thr
