Certificate Craze on Campus
In recent years, to get a certificate has become anew craze among college students. Just randomly ask a student on campus what he or she isbusy doing, quite possibly, you may get the answer that he is preparing for a certificate ofsome kind. Why does this craze appear?
There are mainly two reasons behind this phenomenon. To begin with, it is theemployment pressure that forces college students to get more certificates. With the admissionexpansion of colleges, a lot more graduates have to face the fierce competition in the jobmarket. How can one make himself more competitive? More certificates at hand, maybe.Furthermore, diploma and certificates are still vital standards by which a good many employersmeasure a person’s ability. In order to
increase the qualifications for a job, the studentscompel themselves to run from one exam to another.
From my point of view, we should be more rational when it comes to certificates, sincecertificates do not necessarily prove one’s ability. Being crazy in getting certificates blindly isnothing but wasting time. To conclude, we should focus on improving our ability but notgetting a certificate of no practical value.

The Influence of Television and Movies
There is no doubt that watching television andmovies can influence the way that people behave.Moreover, it seems that people are spending moreand more time watching some sort of visualentertainment, whether it is television, a video tapeor a DVD. Therefore, the effects of visual media cannot be ignored.
One obvious effect of these media is that watching them induces people to buy certainproducts. Television advertising is widespread and, nowadays, even movie theaters permitadvertisements. Another way TV and the movies affect people is that they give people either abroader view of the world or a distorted one, depending on what type of program they watch.Those who watch news and educational program can learn many new things while those whowatch primarily entertainment shows may come to believe that most people in the worldpossess great wealth and good looks. It may make them become dissatisfied with their ownlives. Finally, perhaps the most susceptible viewers are children, who may be unable to tell factfrom fiction and may try to imitate acts that they see on TV or in the movies.
With the ever-increasing popularity of video entertainment, society must pay attention tothese effects. Television and movies, while entertaining and informative, cannot take the placeof real experience.

Advantages and Disadvantages of the MobilePhone
With the rapid economic development, the mobilephone has found its way into campuses and a hostof students take advantage of this wonderfulgadget to communicate with each other. Thisphenomenon gives rise to this question: What arethe advantages and disadvantages of the mobilephone?
It is widely believed that it greatly facilitatesstudents’campus life. Many instances could be foundto support this type of opinion. A graduating student in our university bought a mobile phonein the course of hunting for his job. He told me that through the mobile phone he could easilykeep in touch with the employer of the company he intends to work with and would not missany opportunities.
However, everything has both positive and negative facets. The mobile phone also hasmany disadvantages. For instance, the ringing of the
mobile phone often disturbs the teacher’steaching and other students’learning.
Personally, the advantages of the mobile phone outweigh the disadvantages of it as long aswe don’t interfere with others while using it.

Extravagant Spending on College Campus
According to a survey, in recent years the monthly expenditure of a college student hasbeen on the sharp rise. Many college students have no concept of thrift in their mind. Theytake it for granted that they spend money from their parents before they enter into the society.This extravagant spending is primarily caused by the following factors.
First of all, nowadays most of the students are the only children of their families. They arethe apple in their family’s eyes and naturally get more care and pocket money. In addition, withthe improvement of living standards, parents can afford higher expenditure of their
children.Moreover, some students like to pursue fashion and trends, which tend to need more money.Finally, campus love is also a possible factor causing extravagant spending.
From my point of view, a college student, as a pure consumer, should learn to be thrifty.We should limit our expenditure on daily necessities but not buy whatever we want regardlessof their prices. The habit of thrift can help us form right values and is favorable to our futuredevelopment.

It is universally acknowledged that college students should be guided correctly to facefrustrations in life. Frustration is inevitable during our life, and frustration education should becarried out among colleges and universities. The truth of it is deep and profound.
A great many remarkable illustrations contribute to this argument. A case in point is thatthere are an increasing number of college students committing suicide each year whenconfronted with some kind of frustration. This is close to suggest that strengtheningfrustration education allows of no delay. As a matter of fact, it seems that successful peopletend to be good at dealing with frustrations. Moreover, most of the students are oftenannoyed and discouraged by frustrations instead of drawing lessons.
Judging from the evidence offered, we might safely draw the conclusion that frustrationeducation is essential to the college students.

And among them, the high-educated, like masters and doctors, take quite a largepercentage. The craze in civil servant test has attracted widespread attention.
The following fundamental causes can account for this kind of craze. First and foremost,nowadays college students face great employment
pressure. Civil servant, as one of the moststable professions in today’s China, becomes their preferable choice. Moreover, recently, thewelfare and salary of civil servants have been improved greatly, which undoubtedly attractsmany people. Last but not least, the high social position of civil servants is a crucial factordrawing many people to take part in the civil servant test.
In my opinion, this craze in civil servant test will continue in the following years. However,from the long run, it does not do good to the development of our nation. If most high qualitytalents gather in the government departments, it might lead to a waste of
resources.Accordingly, both the individuals and the government should have a more objectiverecognition of the civil servant test craze.

Job hunting has always been a headache forcollege students. Though many graduates areemployed right after graduation, some are not. Mostserious of all, some still have no idea where to go working even a long time after graduation.
The reasons for this phenomenon are various. On the one hand, a few years ago collegesand universities enrolled so many students in popular majors, such as economy, finance andso on that the number of graduates was greater than the need in the market. On the otherhand, most graduates would rather stay in large cities without suitable job to do than go tothe country.
I reckon this problem can be solved if both colleges and students take measures. First, theyshould research the market and develop special skills to suit its need. Second, students’attitude towards employment should be changed. They should go to small cities and country.There they can also give full play to their professional knowledge.

One glance at a pyramid can leave the viewer in awe of its beauty and splend or. Uponcloser examination, however, one might be surprised to discover that such a grandiosestructure is composed entirely of ordinary stones.
Most people are familiar with the proverb: Rome was not built in a day. An object as grandas a pyramid is likewise not so quickly or easily constructed. Just as the greatness of the cityof Rome is due to the combination of its smaller parts, a pyramid is only as strong as thestones it is comprised of. The image of a pyramid reminds us that great success is in fact anaccumulation of small a chievements.
History proves that many famous artists and scientists are only successful because of theircontinued efforts, even after numerous failures. One might recall Leonardo DaVinci's drawing ofan egg, Wang Xi Zhi practicing handwriting, or Thomas Edison inventing the light bulb, forexample. The fable that tells us that even water can eventually pierce
through stone alsopoints to the importance of patience and diligence. We should take such stories and historiesinto account and remember the importance of fundamentals; remember that one can build apyramid only if one is willing to work with small stones. People would be wise to abandonrash inclinations and instead try in earnest. Perseverance is sure to leadto success.

3.我应该怎么去面对竞争。

【范文】
Competition
Just as animals' competing for survival makes them stronger, competition is very necessary for the advancement of human society. Without competition, man would become lazy and nobody would take any responsibility.
In the first place, competition can make people hardworking and
creative. In the past, China's productivity was very low because of the so-called planned economy. That system makes no competition at all. So neither farmers nor workers worked hard. However, when Deng Xiaoping put forward the marketing economy which requires fiercer competition, China began to become prosperous and strong in economy. In the second place, competition also can stimulate people to try their best to do things. For example, in 100-meter race, each sportsman runs as quickly as possible, trying to become the champion. The same things happen in our society and in our daily life.
Being a student, I must compete with other students in our studies. Therefore, I study hard in all the fields so as to be a useful man when I enter the society after graduation。

Money
Money is regarded by some people as the most important thing in life. For those people, a man with plenty of money can live happily. So in their eyes, money is the main goal oftheir life.
But money cannot buy everything. For instance, no matter how much money one has, he cannot buy good health, which is essential to a good life. Neither can it buy happiness or friendship. Thus, although money is useful in many ways, there are still a lot of things in the world that can not be bought with money.
There are people who obtain money by gamnbling ，cheating or other dishonest means. Sooner or later, they will be punished by the law. Therefore, money will bring them nothing but rnisery. Only when money is obtained through working can it make people really happy.

It is common for students to attend job fairs, send their resumes to companies or look for job adverts in newspapers but now more and more students are turning to the Internet in their search for a job. What is one major advantage or disadvantage of hunting for jobs on the Internet?
范文：
The Internet Makes Job Hunting More Efficient
The rapid development of the Internet gives rise to the phenomenon of applying for jobs online. It is commonplace to submit one's resume and recommendation letters via the Internet and a large number of graduates are employed via online tests. I would like to focus on one major advantage which is that job hunting becomes more efficient when it is done online.
One of the pronounced advantages of online job hunting is that it is more efficient since potential candidates do not have to travel to other cities where the job is. The rise of online interviews provides even more convenience both for the employees and the employers. Furthermore, graduates can get access to considerably more information online since there are a number of websites dedicated to job hunting. The Internet has rendered the whole process more effective and efficient. Graduates can select several categories and narrow down their options. In a way, the Internet serves as a gigantic database and matches graduates with their potential employers. However, it is undeniable that an online interview can only reflect some aspects of a candidate. I believe that in order to gauge a person's potential and aptitude face-to-face interview is imperative.
In conclusion, the efficiency and effectiveness of the Internet for job seekers is a huge advantage which is reflected in the growing number of positions available online.
19、题目：独立精神

范文：
One Major Advantage of Being Independent
Considering how strongly prejudiced our society is against anyone who does not fit into the“independent”category, we can easily understand why independence is so important. As far as I am concerned, one of the most significant advantages I independent is that it facilitates motivation in both study and work.
Firstly, independent students are more likely to become self-motivating learners. Students from a large state university participated in a survey on the effect of independence on perceptions of obligation. Results indicated that independence was associated with intrinsic motivation, one major factor for success. If you are an independent learner, you will be motivated to learn, manage your own learner and reflect on your
learning. Bering motivated will enable you to become a successful learner and provide you with insight into your learning achievements that will in tum enhance your motivation to continue learning. Secondly, being independent at work boosts, motivation to great achievements, Taking self-employment as an important case of independence, it is shown that the self-employed derive more motivation from their work than people employed by an organization, irrespective of income gained or hours worked Independent people are more likely to focus on effective intrinsic reinforcers to make internal and controllable attributions for their success. They set goals and persist at tasks related to those goals.
To conclude, being independent enhances motivation, which is beneficial to both study and work.
20、题目：要让每个学生都接受高等教育吗？
Some people believe that college or university education should be available to all students. Other people take the view that higher education should be available only to good students. What is your opinion?
范文：
University Education Should Be Available for All
Many people propose the idea that higher education should be available to only qualified students-students with certain aptitudes, who have achieved an excellent academic performance. However,l beg to differ for the following reasons.
To begin with, the general level of education nationwide has always been employed as a criterion to gauge how advanced or developed a society is. In an ideal egalitarian society, everyone should be able to receive higher education unless he willingly forgoes that option. In other words, education should not be viewed as a privilege enjoyed only by people who are endowed with certain talents. Furthermore, it would be tremendously beneficial to any society if the general public6 rather than the fortunate few can enjoy higher education. A wide range of social issues can be effectively remedied by a high-quality education which imparts crucial moral principles. In addition, a great amount of economic value can be generated if higher education is available to more people. Yet, I also concede that it may not be practical or realistic to provide higher education to everyone owing to limited financial as well as human resources. Not even the most affluent nation in the world can fulfill that objective at this stage
In the final analysis, I believe that the more people who can receive higher education, the better off a society will be.。
