Caring House

(1)Nowadays more and moreelderly people choose to live in the caring house. Some people areholding the opinion that caring houses provide old people with a betterenvironment than homes. Personally I agree with this opinion for the followingreasons.

(2)In the first place,caring houses provide the elderly with (3)first-rate facilities and services, which the familyis lacking in. Nowadays, working couples need to face intense competition andthey need to make more money to support their family. As a result, they haveless time to care for the old people, especially when the elderly suffer fromserious diseases. On the contrary, when old people live in caring houses,nurses can meet their needs and advanced facilities also provide a bettertreatment. Secondly, in caring houses theelderly can meet people of similar age, taste and hobby, with who they can havemore common topics to talk about. Besides, theold people need more serenity and rest while the young need more activities. Whenthe elderly choose to live in caring houses, they need not worry about thisproblem.

(4)However, the emergence of excessive package has given rise to manyundesirable consequences that can’t be neglected. For one thing,it is a waste of precious andlimited natural resources,which will thus pose underlying threat to our offspring generation.For another, customers are often deceived by artificial external packing ratherthan being provided with high-quality goods.

(5)Tochange this situation, I think we should take the following measures.First, laws must be made and implemented to impose restriction on excessivepackaging. Second, a public education campaign should be launched to arousecustomers’ consciousness that packaging is not equal to quality, and to letthem know the bad impact of it.

【范文】

Real-name System for Train Ticket

(1)With the largestpopulation in the world and an underdeveloped railway system, China isnotorious for making train tickets particularly hard to purchase for ordinarycitizens, especially during the Spring Festival when the railway is the primarymeans of transportation. The reason is that (2)ticket scalpers have proliferated, monopolizing alarge quantity of tickets by either hiring people to buy tickets or conspiringwith the ticket sellers within the railway stations.

As the entirenation’s outrage over ticket scarcity keeps mounting, the Chinese governmenthas introduced the drastic measure that (3)citizens purchase train tickets with valid personal IDs.(4)The system isdesigned primarily to crack down on ticket scalpers who have been themajor reason of the problem. By allowing each individual to buy only oneticket, the system seeks to make tickets accessible to people in real need,rather than controlled by the profit-seeking and illegal scalpers.

(5)However,this reformatory measure, while somewhat easing ticket scarcity, creates newproblems. Buyers find the whole buying process troublesome andtime-consuming. Furthermore, when boarding the train, the passenger who forgetsto bring his valid ID certificate will be denied access to the train. I believethe introduction of each new system is coupled with shortcomings but there mustbe ways to improve the system. (6)Of course, we look forward to the day when China’s railwaynetworks are so sufficiently developed that tickets are readily available toanyone at any time.

【行文点评】

(1) 描述与话题相关的现象,为下文提出话题做铺垫。

(2) 指的是“票贩子,黄牛党”。

Drunk Driving

(1)Nowadays, the phenomenonof drunken driving has aroused wide concern among the public. Especiallythe young generation living in metropolis, tend to drive after drinking,ignoring the fact that this behavior may pose underlying threat to theirprecious life and others.

(2)Generally speaking, thereare several reasons accounting for this phenomenon. Firstly, the absenceof consciousness of driving security may be one of the leading causes. Peopleparticipate in more activities or banquets than ever before, where alcohol is inevtable.Then, they may get drunk but continue to drive. Secondly, relevant laws andregulations may not have been strictly enforced to warn people not to driveafter drinking. (3)Drunkendriving is bound to generate severe consequence if we keep turning a blind eyeand a deaf ear to it. First and foremost, this behavior will directlythreaten the safety of drivers, passengers and pedestrians, resulting intraffic accidents, injuries and even deaths. Besides, treating the injured andrepairing broken cars means a grievous cost of money, time and resources.

(4)In viewof the seriousness of this problem, effective measures must be taken beforethings get worse. First, it is essential that the supervisory role oflaws and regulations should be strengthened to impose heavy penalty on thosewho drive after drinking. Secondly, a more extensive education campaign shouldbe launched to arouse the public’s consciousness of the importance of drivingsafety.

They think that it isquite difficult for newly married couples to have a stable life without moneyor house, and they will probably get divorced in the end.

(3)As faras I am concerned, it is acceptable for young people to have a “nakedwedding”. (4)If husbandand wife are of the same mind, their sharpness can cut through metal.

The Hollywoodfilms and the western music all cater to their tastes of pursuing fashion. (3)By contrast, mostof our traditional festivals are regarded rigid, so they may be suitable forthe elder. Although festivals such as the Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-AutumnFestival have been added as legal holidays recently, these festivals’ influenceon young people is relatively weak.
