Keeping a Pet
Nowadays it is common to see people keep a dog or cat or a pet of another kind all over the world.
There are many advantages of keeping a pet. For one thing，pets are good companions. This is especially important for people who live alone and for the old who do not go out much. Some pets can also help to protect the house from thieves. For another, dogs and cats like to play and can give hours of amusement to children and adults. Taking care of an animal also helps children to develop a sense of responsibility and to learn about the nature.
However, keeping a pet, just like anything else, has its negative side as well. It may also give rise to some problems. For example, some pets are dirty and tend to transmit some sort of disease. Worst of all, some dogs may attack and seriously injure small children for the reason that their owners don’t train them properly or actually encourage them to be aggressive.
To sum up, there are more advantages than disadvantages to keeping a pet, especially for lonely people and children. Meanwhile, it is, however, quite necessary to bear in mind that pets should be well trained lest they attack people. 模板(二)
Working at Home
Nowadays, with the development of science and technology, particularly computer and telephone technology, it has been made a reality that some people are capable of working at home，which has brought much convenience and pleasure to them.
Generally speaking, people enjoy working at home for the following benefits. For one thing, they not only save time by not having to travel long distance to work every day but save money on transportation and business clothes. For another, suffering less stress from their employers, they can think more clearly and be more creative in the quiet and peaceful atmosphere of their home. Most
18
agreeable of all, they have much freedom to decide for themselves how and when to do their job, enabling them to spend more time with their family.
While working at home allows much more freedom than working in office, some problems cannot be ignored. For example, sometimes, they cannot separate their personal life from their working life. Besides, if they work at home, it follows that they are lack of person-to-person communication with their counterpart, thus having trouble keeping pace with the ever-changing development. After all, many people still prefer to conduct business face to face.
What’s more, there is evidence that people working at home are more likely to catch some mental illness as sometimes they cannot shy away from loneliness.
For all the possible problems arising from working at home, I still believe more and more people would love to do most of their jobs at home because working at home can really provide them with much more freedom to manipulate their time. 模板(三)
Studying Abroad Nowadays, studying abroad gains popularity in China. Many rich parents would rather send their children abroad to receive education than let them be educated in China.
As everything has two sides, studying abroad is not an exception. There are advantages for people to attend schools abroad. In the first place, he can use the foreign language in his daily life so that his ability in the second language may be greatly improved, as it is obvious that there is no better opportunity to improve second-language skills than living in the country where it is spoken. Secondly, while studying in a foreign country, he will most likely encounter many others from overseas and it is possible to make friends from all around the world. This is not only exciting on a social level, but could lead to important overseas contacts in his career as well.
Thirdly, we can get acquainted with the latest knowledge in science and make use of the first-rate facilities available. In this way, there is every chance that he is able to widen his horizon and broaden his mind.
Of course, attending schools abroad may also bring about a series of problems．The most serious problem is language barrier.
Most of the students who are ready to go abroad do not have adequate presidency in the language spoken there. As a result, on arriving there, they will find it difficult to understand what the instruct torso say. Besides, for lack of knowledge of the customs of the local people, they may constantly run into trouble in dealing with various situations. Inevitable, misunderstandings often arise. Furthermore, the tuition and the cost of living is much higher than that in our country, which may add more burden to their family finance.
Therefore, given an opportunity to attend a school abroad, one must consider both sides of the factors carefully before making up his mind. 模板(四)
My View on Reference Books
Nowadays students constantly find themselves flooded with all kinds of reference books. Reference books themselves are of no harm. Generally speaking, most of them are helpful and beneficial to our studies. For example, when we are teaching ourselves a foreign language, good reference books are really a good teacher.
However, depending too much on reference books has many negative effects. To begin with, armed with keys to all the questions, some students seem to know all, and then they will be less
19
attentive in class. Besides, some reference books published in such haste that they occasionally provide students with wrong answers, thus making students confused about some knowledge. Worst of all, merely copying from the reference books, students gradually become lazy and get into passive learning habits, which will definitely do great harm to their creativity.
In my opinion, we should make proper use of the books and never overuse them by merely copying without thinking. 模板(五)
Electronic Dictionaries
In recent years electronic dictionaries have become very popular as a study aid among students. Compared with a traditional dictionary, this kind of new dictionary has many advantages. First, in comparison with a traditional dictionary, it’s obviously very handy and convenient. Besides, due to its multifunction, it’s also very helpful. It cannot only translate words from English to Chinese, but vice versa. Some even can teach the learner how to pronounce a word. Most important of all, most of the entries in electronic dictionaries are comparatively updated.
On the other hand, electronic dictionary has its disadvantage tags. First, the definitions in the entries are very limited. In addition, there are not enough explanations, patterns, or examples to illustrate the correct usage of word. Last but not the least, constant use of this study aid can make people too much attached to the dictionary and become lazy, which will lead them to form a passive and lazy attitude towards learning.
In my opinion, we should use it properly and should have a good English dictionary at hand and treat the electronic one as a makeshift when necessary.
