Should Students Wear the school Uniform ?for:1. School uniform is identification for students. It is a respect to the school. A uniform represents the school. A person wearing a set of uniform represents that he/she is a student.2. Wearing uniform can show the tidiness and discipline of the school, decrease discrimination among peers.3. Further more, school uniform can keep out some unnecessary disturbance on students’ studies. It can save the students’ time on choosing what to wear to school.4. School is a place for study, not a place for fashion. Students should concentrate on their study but not their clothes.5. Uniform can lower some unnecessary problems. Students will not compare themselves on the brands or styles of their casual clothes. Every student is fair in the school no matter how they are different in background.6. Uniforms help to create a strong sense of belonging to a particular community.7. Also, uniforms give students a good team spirit. They make students feel united because they wear all the same things.8. Lots of people are trying to copy some stars’style of clothing, even students do it too, but some star’s clothing is always inappropriate for students to wear. Wearing uniform can avoid it.9. By having everyone wear the same uniform, students are easily identified. For example, when on an excursion, if someone gets lost, they can be easily recognized and can find their group by their distinctive uniforms. This helps the teachers and the school to control and look after the students.Against:1. There should be more freedom for students to wear casual clothes.2. Uniforms are expensive and ugly3. Everyone has different styles, everyone is unique, It disables students to show their styles and all students will look dull and indifferent. No impressions would be made, and everyone would look boring and inflexible.4. It's more important to make the students to be active than to make a nervous atmosphere in campus.5. Policies like this maybe will limit the creative and personality of student. Every day student faces the same things, and there is no space for student to develop the imagination and creativity.8. Is it a good idea to control the world's population growth?For:1. In modern times, a family with few children, or even with no children at all, is still a happy family.2. With fewer children in a family, parents spend less time on household chores and concentrate more on their own interests, and their children enjoy better material and educational opportunities than those in bigger families.3. The most pressing problem created by the rapid increase in population is a shortage of food. At present a large proportion of the existing population is not getting enough of the right kind of food (e.g. people in India, Ethiopia, etc. ).4. The rapid rise in world population is creating problems for all countries on earth because there simply aren't enough resources.5. Both rich and poor countries of the world should take united action to deal with the population explosion. Otherwise, there will be more people fighting for less land and fewer resources, and the future will bring poverty, misery and war to us all.6. Population increase in developing countries has wiped out the material benefits that they have achieved.7. Statistics show that where the population rate is high, people's living standards are low. This means, people's living conditions cannot improve unless there is a reduction in the increased rate of population.8. Overpopulation creates a shortage of schools, teachers, hospitals and doctors.9. Overpopulation causes problems in housing and employment, especially in cities.10.

Whether to have children or not is a private matter and nobody should interfere with it.3. It is unfair to blame all the problems on the increase in population. It is those greedy manufacturers and businessmen in developed countries that make the heaviest demands on the world's resources and cause the most pollution.4. If population control were a must, it should be carried out in developed countries as well because a baby born in the U. S. will use in his lifetime 30 times more of the world's resources than a baby born in India.5. Children are the most important thing in life. With fewer children around, life will be dull, meaningless and unhappy. It is incredible fora couple to have no children at all.6. Children in a family give the parents a sense of responsibility and pride. They are very important to the stability of a family.7. Population control does greater harm than we realize. For instance, if the one child policy is still in practice in 100 years, people then will have little idea of kinship ties, for most of them will have no brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, or cousins.8. With the government's family planning policy in operation we now havea generation of "only child" families: most of them are arrogant, selfish, and spoilt.9. A big family offers children a chance to learn how to cope with and care for other people.10.

The financial crisis leads to many wage cuts, layoffs and closures. In the first half of 2008, 60,000 - 70,000 small and medium-sized enterprises went out of business in China. Many migrant workers are unemployed and return their homes. In the year of 2009, there will be 6.10 million college graduates seeking for jobs around the country. As a result, college graduates are doomed to experience "job-hunting winter". In the face of such employment environment, how should graduates get employed? How should they choose professions? For such serious problems, schools, students and parents should take some corresponding measures. Concerning the significant impact that the financial crisis brought about on our students, this article aims at making a brief description of the latest guidance.Above all, we should look at the financial crisis in a rational way. The Secretary-General of the Asian Economic Association said: "In China, most of the enterprises that face closures in this financial crisis are in the industries of high pollution or high energy consumption. Therefore, these enterprises' collapse is a natural die out, which is the development trend." The financial crisis would have a bad influence on many Chinese enterprises, but it also offered many China's enterprises some opportunities to go through transformation. For the reason that the demand and employment is still inevitable in the depression, the financial crisiswill lead to the reshuffle of the division of the world's manufacturing industry chain and help develop a new round of economy restructuring. That is why students should rationally look at the impact of the financial crisis and have full confidence in the development of the future.When it comes to the specific methods on promoting the employment rate of the graduates, there are several measures that students and schools can take.First, as graduates, you should lower your job expectations. College students are not so rare and precious as before. So you should change all the obsolete ideas and face the reality. It's advisable for you to get employed first rather than choose profession. So prepare yourself to work from the bottom and accept a not so satisfactory pay.Second, prepare for the job hunting beforehand. The enterprises' recruitment begins more than half a year earlier before students' graduation. So graduates need to get down to make resume when they just enter senior year. Besides, reading some books on the job applying skills may benefit them a lot.Third, students had better go out of the dormitory and run between job fairs. The more companies you apply to, the more opportunities you may have to get an interview. And of course the employment probability increase.Forth, never goes into despair. You should make the most of each interview to show yourself well. And when you face failure, never fall into despair. You should tell yourself that failure is inevitable in one's life and you should adjust your mood and deem it as a chance to gain experience.Fifth, university career center should carry out a series of guidance courses. It should help graduates get conscious of the employment situation, build the confidence and establish positive attitude. It should also give graduates some instruction on how to write resume and how to act in an interview.Determination is foundational to success. An ambitious person with a positive attitude will thrive. If you made your decision and change your perception and actions, you can change your life. Take an attitude of perseverance, and determine to go for it!。
