【文章內(nèi)容簡(jiǎn)介】 many people avail of the opportunities to receive college education. But there are not enough positions for people with university degrees. Besides, some graduates refuse to do what they think “l(fā)ow” jobswork with hands is thought to be indecent. In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us should do whatever job is suited to his brain and ability, and secondly, that we must realize that all jobs are necessary to society.13教育為社會(huì)做準(zhǔn)備教育不是目的,我們不是為了教育孩子而教育他們,我們的目的是讓他們適應(yīng)生活. 由于現(xiàn)代教育的發(fā)展,有些畢業(yè)生拒絕做他們認(rèn)為低等的工作手工工作被認(rèn)為是不得體的. 實(shí)際上,當(dāng)我們說(shuō)所有人都必須接受教育,意思是我們應(yīng)該按照以下方式接受教育:第一,我們每個(gè)人都應(yīng)該做適合我們大腦和能力的工作。第二,我們必須意識(shí)到所有工作對(duì)社會(huì)都是必須的. 14 Making a Phone Call or Writing a LetterWhen there is a need to municate with people, we either make a phone call or write a letter. Some people like making a phone call while others prefer writing a letter. The advantage of phoning is evident. It is handy and fast. We can contact whomever we want to and talk with him right away. By making phone calls, people can discuss things as if they were in the same room. However, there are still some people who prefer to write letters. There is no doubt that letters are less expensive than longdistance calls. Besides it is a better choice for those who are not good at expressing themselves orally. However, it takes days, even weeks for a letter to reach its destination. Both making a phone call and writing a letter are effective means of munication. It seems advisable to make use of them both on different occasions. 14打電話還是寫信當(dāng)我們需要與他人聯(lián)系時(shí),我們或者打電話,. ,. 打電話和寫信都是有效的交流方式,我們建議應(yīng)該在不同的場(chǎng)合使用這兩種不同的方式. 15 A Letter of ApplicationDear Sir: I was pleased to see your ad in the newspaper on December 25th for a sales engineer.

It was about 9:30 in the morning. It was not the rushhour and there were not many passengers on the bus. But the driver drove so fast and he didn’t slow down even when the bus turned round street corners. One of the passengers asked him to drive slowly but he did not listen. When the bus reached the next stop, a man stood up and walked toward the door. The driver stopped the bus so suddenly that the man could not keep his balance and fell on the floor. The driver didn’t make an apology and asked him to get off the bus right away. I think that public bus system should serve the public wholeheartedly. The safety of passengers should be the major concern. It is my sincere hope that proper measures ought to be taken to prevent such incidents from happening again.

While many like to join package tours for convenience’s sake, I prefer to travel by myself.I like traveling on my own not only because it costs less but because it gives me freedom. Traveling on my own, I’m my own boss and can decide when to start or where to linger I can adjust my own plan. By contrast, in a package tour you’re deprived of such freedom as you are supposed to follow the agenda of the tour team. True, you may encounter inconveniences if you travel alone。 getting acmodations for the night and finding a place for meals might give you headaches. But nothing can be pared with freedomthe freedom which is vital to a person who takes a holiday trip to be free from constrains of the routine life.17我最喜歡的旅游方式隨著人們生活水平的提高,越來(lái)越多的人在假期出去旅游,但我更喜歡自己?jiǎn)为?dú)去旅游. ,決定什么時(shí)候出發(fā),在什么地方逗留,跟團(tuán)旅游你就沒那么自由了,你得服從整個(gè)旅行團(tuán)的日程安排.當(dāng)然,獨(dú)自旅行時(shí)你也可能遇到些許不便,因?yàn)閷?duì)于一個(gè)通過旅行來(lái)使自己擺脫日常生活束縛的人來(lái)說(shuō)自由才是最重要的。練習(xí)一 order to learn to be one’s true self ，it is necessary to obtain a wide and extensive knowledge of what has been said and done in the world。（2010考過）要想了解真實(shí)的自我，必須深入廣泛的探索前人所說(shuō)過的話，所做過的事。 element of the unknown has of centuries added greatly to the fear and horror surrounding earthquakes ，but in recent times there have been indications that earthquake prediction may be possible。數(shù)百年來(lái)，地震的不可知性給地震蒙上了極大的恐懼和驚慌，然而近幾次的地震發(fā)生之前已經(jīng)顯露一些跡象。 3.
