Topic 1: A Logical Fallacy I Have CommittedWhat is a logical fallacy? A logical fallacy is, roughly speaking, an error of reasoning. When people speak of logical fallacies they often mean to refer to this collection of well-known errors of reasoning, rather than to fallacies in the broader, more technical sense given above.Look at a seemingly fallacious example: "if I fail my exams, I can't graduate. If I don't graduate, I won't get a good job, so I'll probably do odd jobs after graduation."This is a common fallacy, and some are taking it for gospel truth，just like I used to be.But in fact,some people can’t graduated from college or poor students not get goods grades also achieve great success in their future.We can't judge others by their present performances .Maybe they just can’t adapt their current study or lifestyle.I think the reason for this fallacy is that most people think mark is the main factor to determine the future，so they always put the mark in an important position and ignore other factors to our future.Topic 2: The Pursuit of BeautySome people spend their whole lives to look for beauty，Some people spare no effort to keep young face,Some people are indifferent to the end of his life but comprehend the true meaning of beauty.So,What is beauty? In my eyes,beauty is a young man who gives his seat to the old,beauty is the police man who serves the people every day，as well as a children who take stray animals.The beauty in my heart is something invisible but can be feeling.In fact,We divide beauty into physical beauty and inner beauty.Physical beauty more focused on people, mainly refers to the body, appearance,its attention is the morphological characteristics of people.Inner beauty refers to the beauty of the inner world of human beings, and is the concrete embodiment of human’s thoughts, morality, sentiment, character and so on. Therefore, inner beauty is also called spiritual beauty.As for me ,I would like to pursue inner beauty.I think ,inner beauty is a manifestation of people’s thought altitude.Through it,we can recognize a real person.There is a saying goes：don’t judge a person by his appearances.So,inner beauty is willing to pursue.Topic 3: The Entrepreneur I Admire MostMention entrepreneurs, the first one in my mind is Ma Yun，One might think that he have a background or a successful man whenever.But when Ma yun was a child, he was definitely not a good boy. He was naughty and liked to fight. He was not very smart.When he grown up,Ma Yun was admitted to Hangzhou Normal University majored in foreign language.After graduation,Ma yun and his friends set up Hope translation agency and now it is the biggest translation agency in Hangzhou.Afterwards,when he contacted the Internet, he formally established the Alibaba website.T admire him because he is never content with comfort,But to be bold and try to do something really meaningful.He has a spirit of indomitable will.I learn courage and insistence from him. At many times, we are always worried, afraid, and hesitant.In fact, This is just our lazy excuse.Ma yun’s experience told me:Today is very cruel, tomorrow is more cruel, the day after tomorrow is beautiful,But most people died in tomorrow night, and can not see the sun the day after tomorrow.so we should try our best to reach the day after tomorrow.Topic 4: Culture DifferencesCultural differences means different countries have various cultures.and some of them are same,others are not.such as people in the East prefer to have a shower at night to confirm a comfortable sleep while the western people are fond of taking morning bath to refresh themselves to go through a whole day’s work with energy.These differences not only in behaviors ,but also in education ,gestures,forms of expression and so on.If we are failure to recognize cultural differences,We may do things that not respect enough to threat others，or misinterpret what they really mean,even crack a big joke.Actually, every culture that could not replace each other exists for its unique and important reasons, therefore, we can not force other people to follow our culture. At the same time, what we should do is to respect the cultural diversity.Every culture have their own unique significance ,We can't think about what to change, but try to accept and understand them.Topic 5: Gender EqualityGender equality is a concept we have been advocated for a long time. Almost all countries in the world have realized this idea, but in a few countries, gender discrimination still exists. What is gender equality? Gender equality is either to a man or woman, we should always treat them with the same standard. In fact, Some remote areas in the China, Because of the backwardness of ideas,They still put men in a higher position , so some women are still in an unfair position. Except China，In a small number of countries around the world, The status of women is not high. this phenomenon is worthy of our attention, and we also should do something to achieve or improve gender equality. On the one hand, we need to spread the idea of gender equality, tell people, There is no difference between man and man. everyone deserves to be respected and be love. On the other hand, we need to take immediate action to reflect this idea and let more people know, they did not treated specially by others.Topic 6: Should Men and Women Be Equal?Should Men and Women Be Equal?The answer is sure。
