1. The 2010 World Expo Shanghai

May 1st2010 is the day I’m looking forward to, when the World Expo will open in my hometownShanghai. There is no doubt that our city will become more beautiful and attractive, and display her unique charm to the world.

The World Expo will provide me with a golden opportunity to serve as a volunteer and devote my efforts to helping make our city vivid with life.

Meanwhile, the Expo will enable me to keep pace with the fast-developing science and technology because these new scientific results will help to widen my horizon.

Last but not least, a better city will surely bring us a better life. Our government is now sparing no efforts to making our city cleaner, the sky bluer and transportation system more convenient.

In May to October, we will warmly welcome millions of friends from different parts of the world. I firmly believe the Expo will be a great success, leaving a marvelous impression on the whole world.

2. The USA Pavilion—Spirit of America

We often hear people say “Spirit of America”, but what exactly does the phrase mean? We’ll have a close experience of the country’s spirit in the huge gray steel structure of the USA Pavilion at the World Expo hosted by China, opening in Shanghai on May 1.

With the theme of “Rise to the Challenge”, the exhibition building is meant to look like an eagle stretching its wings in welcome. In keeping with the Expo’s theme of “Better City, Better Life,” the challenges depicted will be creating environmentally friendly communities, enjoying a healthy lifestyle and using technology to improve people’s lives. The pavilion presents the US as a place of opportunity and diversi ty where people come together to change their communities for the better.

3. The life of the students in Senior Three

Most of the students in Senior Three are used to studying day and night, dealing with one problem after another and they are living a very busy and boring life. So do I. I seldom complain about it as I want to be a student of a famous university.

But, sometimes, I wonder whether such a life is worth living. I know how important my study is at the moment, and I understand how our teachers and parents worry about our studies. They all hope I will have a bright future. However; is it the only way to get into a good university?

No doubt, I have to keep on studying hard. But I have decided to relax myself a little bit by doing something I like to. For example, chatting with my friends, visiting some exhibitions or taking part in some public welfare activities. I think the life of Senior Three students be rich and colorful.

4. Is it worthwhile to study abroad?

Some people think it worthwhile to study abroad. One advantage is that going abroad to study takes us to a different culture, environment and language. In a different culture, we can meet people who think differently from our way we do. Another advantage is that it is very effective for us to go to the country where the language is spoken. We are forced to use the language whether or not we feel like it, so we can learn more rapidly and more easily.

Other people believe there are more disadvantages to studying abroad. For example, we often pay high transportation costs as well as high tuition and living expenses. We are surrounded by people who have such a different culture that we feel completely out of place and very lonely sometimes.

Despite these negative possibilities, it is important for our future that we overcome the disadvantages. If we overcome our fears and culture shock, going to study abroad is very helpful to us in disciplining our will, improving our minds, and promoting our cultural understanding.
