1.Traditional classroom:
• Advantages: more direct communication between the teacher and students;
a better learning atmosphere.
• Disadvantages: little interaction either among students or between students and the teacher; the teacher tending to dominate the class; writing on blackboard reducing efficiency.
Multimedia learning:
• Advantages: more vivid teaching materials; students better engaged in classroom learning.
• Disadvantages: too many distractions with too many pictures and vid eos in multimedia classrooms.
Studying online:
• Advantages: being able to choose when and what you want to learn; easy access to the wide range of online information.
• Disadvantages: making it easier for students to copy answers from the Inter net; lack of face-to-face communication between the teacher and students; the possibility for students to develop Internet addiction.
2.• I prefer the multimedia way of learning. A multimedia classroom is vivid with teaching materials presented in different ways: slides, pictures, and even movies. Compared with a traditional classroom, a multimedia classroom is more interesting.
• To be frank, I prefer to study online. In this way I can manage my own time. I can have my own priorities and do things at my own pace. It is simply what I want.
3.• Yes. The Internet is indispensable in teaching and learning nowadays. It is hard to imagine what it would be like without the Internet. We would have no easy or quick way to learn about the latest development of teaching and learning. We would miss the many interesting online courses; we couldn't communicate effectively with teachers after class. We just can't afford to lose the Internet.
• No. Teaching and learning had been carried out long before the Inter net came into being. And people did just as well without the Internet or the computer. It is true that the Internet makes teaching and learning more convenient and more
efficient, but it is by no means indispensable. I'm sure we can still teach or learn without the Internet.
1. A fleet of laptops, smartphones and Internet connectivity 24 hours a day.
2. Wireless Internet access anywhere and anytime on campus.
3.Because smartphones could draw students' attention and encourage sophisticated thinking.
4. Because too much time online can mean too little time in real-life studying or exercising or visiting with friends. If we spend too much time online, we will be cut off from the real world.
5. They used the money to wire dorms with high-speed connections and equip their campuses with Wi-Fi networks.
6. Because the university was afraid that its technology was not as advanced as that of other universities, it gave away free Apple iPads to compensate for its inferiority in this aspect.
7. If a university can't keep up with the rest of the world, or if it can't provide high-bandwidth information as expected, it will be at a competitive disadvantage.
8. It is mainly because they want to provide students with the most advanced free system.
Reference:
1.• Yes, I think so. Internet access is a must on campus. We students need the Internet to do research for our study, to obtain information to broaden our knowledge of the world, to communicate with family and friends, and to enrich our lives in our spare time.
• No, I don't think so. There are many potential disadvantages if Internet access is so easily accessible on campus. Some students may waste too much time in playing online games or chatting online, be tempted to visit "unhealthy" websites, or even become Internet-addicted and neglect their study.
2.• It sounds like an awful idea to me. Obtaining knowledge is only part of learning. Learning not only gives us a wealth of knowledge, it also provides us with great vision, strong principles, social abilities, good manners, interpersonal skills and many more valuable attributes. This obviously cannot be realized by learning at home only with the computer.
• I think it is a good idea that students can study at home via the Internet in the future. Learning would become more flexible and accessible. This way, college
education could become available to many more people, old or young, near or far, healthy or handicapped.
3.• The Internet and smartphones have become an indispensable part of our daily life because they don't cost much and they make communication much more convenient. We can talk to people, or leave them messages almost anywhere and anytime. And very often we will get responses in no time.
• With the Internet and smartphones becoming mo re and more popular, we are forgetting how to write with a pen or how to talk with people face to face. The more we use the Internet and smartphones, the less we meet our friends in real life. Even when friends meet face to face, instead of talking with each other, they all look at their smartphones, checking email or posting something on WeChat.
4.• Life would be unimaginable without the Internet or smartphones. I depend on them to do everything, from study to communication, from shopping to entertaining. Without the Internet, the banking systems, the communications systems, in fact all key aspects closely related to people's life will collapse. Life without the Internet would be terrible and simply unimaginable.
• Actually, I wouldn't mind having a li fe without the Internet or smartphones. Without them, I would meet my family and friends face to face and spend more quality time together. I might take up some interesting hobbies or try something new. So, without them life might become even more colorful.

Reference:
It is not uncommon to see teenagers smoking today. Some of them smoke because of peer pressure. When they see some of their friends smoking, they feel the pressure to try it out in order to "fit in" with the crowd. Some other teenagers smoke because they want to imitate adults or appear to be mature. Teenagers like to imitate their favorite stars and adults around them. So, parents who smoke may set a bad example for their children. In conclusion, the causes of teenager smoking can be attributed to peer pressure and their intention to look like adults.

China's space industry was launched in 1956. Over the past decades, China's space industry has created one miracle after another.

1. Teenagers and college students are more likely to become Internet addicts. Many teenagers lack self-discipline. Though their parents may watch them closely at home and only allow them very limited time to get online, once being away from home, these kids are likely to indulge themselves in the Internet. The same is true for college students. College students often use the Internet to help with their study, and they lack supervision from their parents if they live on campus. If they do not watch their time online and what they do with the Internet, they may also become addicted to the Internet.
2.• Yes, I think so. A weak personality usually can't resist temptation. Jack, my former classmate, definitely falls into this category. He knew for sure that online games would take up too much of his study time. However, he just couldn't stop thinking about the games and completely indulged himself in this virtual world.
• No, I don't think so. A person with a strong persona lity may also become an addict. One of my friends had a very strong personality. He was independent and decisive, and he was always the leader among his friends. But somehow he became an Internet addict. So I think addiction to the Internet has nothing to do with one's personality.
3. If I have friends who unfortunately become Internet-addicted, I will help them: 1) set time limits. I will suggest that they should allow themselves a limited amount of time to spend online each day; 2) keep themselves busy. I will help them find activities to keep their mind off the Internet, e.g. meeting friends, taking up new hobbies, doing sports.
4.• "No Computer Day" is a good idea. If you shut down your computer for a day, you'll possibly find a book to read, go out with friends, talk with your family, visit a museum, play basketball, or go to a concert. A day without the computer is a reminder that there are more rewarding things to do.
• I don't think it is a good idea. For people who depend on their computers for their work or study, they could do little or almost nothing without computers. Moreover, the business world may become out of order without computers, even for only one day.
