第二节：Possible version
Helping others is helping yourself
As is often the case, everyone will surely come across some trouble in life, when help
is badly needed. However, help never comes for no reason. After all, one good turn deserves another.
Here I’d like to share one of my personal experiences. Tom, one of my classmates, was weak in English, which I’m good at. Hard as he tried, he still couldn’t catch up with others. Therefore, I offered him a helping hand. In return for my kindness, he volunteered to help me with my poor math. Several months passing, our efforts have paid off — we both have got improved, which best illustrates the old saying: helping others is helping yourself.
Thereby, we can safely conclude: God helps those who help themselves and others.

M: Not exactly, but I think I will leave in early November.
Text 10
Today all the students in my school had a heated discussion about whether we students should wear school uniforms or not. There were three clear opinions on this question.
80 % of the students think school uniforms are a bad idea. They think all school uniforms are of the same style and the same color, which will prevent students from expressing their individual personalities. Besides, some school uniforms are of poor quality, which makes it uncomfortable to wear. However, 15% of the students think wearing school uniforms is necessary for students. They say it can help schools and teachers to manage the students better, and it can also help some students stop focusing showing off with their clothes. The rest, about 5 %, don't take the issue seriously. They are only concerned whether they can get high grades or not.
As for me, I'm part of the 15%, for the following reasons. First of all, as students, we should obey school rules, which currently require us to wear school uniforms on weekdays. In addition, school uniforms help students avoid comparing themselves to others in terms of clothes. What's more, school uniforms encourage students to feel like part of a bigger group. For all of these reasons, I think that school uniforms are a good idea, and that students ought to wear school uniforms at school.。
