Topic: Some people believe that university students should be required to attend classes. Others believe that going to classes should be optional for students. Which point of view do you agree with? Use specific reasons and details to explain your answers.

It has been discussed for years whether university students should be required to attend classes. Some people agree that they should, yet others suggest that going to classes should be optional for students. They argue that students should have an opportunity to decide what to do within their limited study time. However, attending classes is too important to be optional.

First of all, students can learn more in classes than by studying alone. Teaching content offered by a teacher is sometimes regarded as lacking of flexibility, yet generally a teacher is more skilled and experienced than students, especially at universities with high teaching quality. A student learns language by remembering the spelling of each word, while a teacher explains the culture behind those words. A student solves questions one by one, while a teacher provides general roles of a category of problems. A teacher’s accumulation of knowledge and skills, done by a pretty long period of time, is sent to students completely at classes, and leads them to a more efficient way which considerably saves their lives. Thus, attending classes is too valuable to be optional.

Besides, attending classes can help students to form good habits. Classes are arranged at certain times of each day, so students have to make their own schedules. Time schedules enable a student to have a regular life, which will obviously help with one’s health, not to mention gym classes required. Furthermore, appearing at classes on time is a good training of keeping one’s time, and staying with other classmates is a good exercise of self-control. Therefore, attending classes is too serious to be optional.

Admittedly, studying by oneself, including reciting fresh words, looking for answer to questions, and reading useful books, is also extremely important. However, university students still have plenty time out of their classes to study by themselves. Attending classes helps a student with his self study work rather than takes over its time.

In a word, university students should be required to attend classes. Going to classes is valuable for it offers students more knowledge, and it is serious as it helps students to build good habits. As a result, attending classes is so important that it cannot be optional.

我觉得你的结构和味道都出来了。你写作文的速度真快，我都跟不上你的脚步了。因为自己水平很烂，所以那些标注也不一定正确。

It has been discussed for years whether university students should be required to attend classes. Some people agree that they should, yet（用whereas比较好吧，whereas表示对比意思，yet表示转折意思） others suggest that going to classes should be optional for students. They argue that students should have an opportunity to decide what to do within their limited study time.（我觉得这句应当和前一句的后半句合成一句比较好，感觉有歧义。） However, attending classes is too important to be optional.[/color](这句话感觉很别扭，不知楼主要表达何意？？）

同楼主作文对比我发现，自己在把问题展开的方面还有所欠缺，有时候一个问题说着说着就没词了
还的努力啊

夜一UID: 2130338

对不起大家，昨天上了一天的课，晚上倒头便睡了，没有上来
今天看见这么多的朋友帮我改了作文，真是太感谢了

扁舟子说的那一段的逻辑问题，的确是逻辑不清楚，我在写的时候就很头疼，怎么才能把话说清楚，然而最终是想不清楚了
待会儿去看看大家的文章，再想想到底应该说什么

另外我现在的文章还远没有到限时的阶段，真得非常头痛阿
这篇文章，说实话一开始想起来的就只有那三个too...to，然后死命的往里凑字数。。。

TWE果然还是最头痛的，算算字数也没多少，也就374，死活都不能限时写完，这回也是写到第四段就没时间了，然而看看论述并非真得很生动具体，转去K了一堆理论还是一头雾水，不知道怎么能写得快点，555


Topic: A person you know is planning to move to your town or city. What do you think this person would like and dislike about living in your town or city? Why? Use specific reasons and details to develop your essay.

One of my friends living in Beijing is planning to move to my home town, Chengdu, a city located in the southwest of China, irritated by several rivers, and surrounded by huge mountains. I believe she will fall in love with this city, though it is not so ideal as she imagines.

First, she will extremely like the pleasant climate here. Unlike northern cities, such as Beijing, Chengdu does not have cold winters and harsh windy days, not to mention dust storms. High mountains around Chengdu shield this city from wind from outside. Since she is always sensitive to her skin conditions, she will find Chengdu a comfortable place to live in. I’m sure she will enjoy walking through fine wind on a warm spring’s morning, and sitting in her garden on a shining winter’s afternoon.

Besides, Chengdu is famous for its delicious food, which will probably attract her. Chengdu is a fertile land, growing various fruit and vegetables, feeding numerous fowl and livestock. Residents here have worked hard for thousands of years dealing with the taste of food, and dishes in Chengdu are highly praised all over the country. I expect that she will have a good time here, just like others.

In addition, rivers and mountains here are so beautiful that she will certainly be captured. During her leisure time, she will have opportunities to listen to stream flowing across a small bridged, view clouds under her feet from the top of a mountain, and take photos together with wild animals. As she love nature very much, she will find all these things wonderful.

Admittedly, she will feel bothered by several facts here. For example, Chengdu is a perfect place not only for human beings but also for insects. While walking along the river’s bank, she may have to spend more time battling with mosquitoes than breathing fresh air. Additionally, as a result of poor railway development, traveling to other cities provides nothing except either an arduous journey or a much higher cost if she decides to take plane instead.

As I see, in spite of bothering insects and poor railway system, she will enjoy living in my home town, Chengdu, because of its pleasant climate, nice food, and beautiful natural environment.

继续贴，0308的题目，topic137

Topic: Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? High schools should allow students to study the courses that students want to study. Use specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.

Should high school students be allowed to study courses as they like? In my country, most of the high schools have announced that students can study some subjects optionally, while main courses, such as languages, mathematics, and gyms, are still required. I simply support this scheme.

High school students should have the opportunity to decide their own courses, because different students have different abilities. It is not wise to force a student cut out for history to spend too much time on physics. It is also absurd to ignore a student’s talent in music or painting. Since high school students are about to enter colleges or universities, they should have rights to grasp their chance of self development, that is, study courses according to their abilities.

Besides, allowing students to study subjects which they are interested in will encourage their hard working. Enthusiasm is powerful. Students will pay more attention at classes of their favorite subjects, instead of doze off. They will as well spend more time after classes. Through hard working, students do not only obtain more knowledge, but also create determination and self-confidence to overcome difficulties.

However, main courses, such as languages, mathematics, and gyms, are too important to be optional. Languages provide students the ability to communicate with others. Mathematics teaches students calculation and logic. Gyms keep students healthy during their school time. All high school students should study these courses, in order to gain basic reading and writing skills, deal with finance and time schedule, and maintain personal health. They should do even if they would not like to, or they can not become strong enough to survive in modern society.

In conclusion, high schools should allow students to take some courses according to their abilities and interests, in order to develop their talents and encourage hard working, yet students are still required to study several main subjects, including languages, mathematics, and gyms.

Topic: Why a person you know decided to move from a town to your city.Use specific reasons and details to develop your essay.|留Tw

There has been a heated debate on going to live in a town or live in a city for years.  A friend of mine has decided to move to my city with his family recently.  And also I stand on his side because the advantages in living large cities comparing to living in towns are more obviously.  
   Being a citizen of large cities, people can directly acquainted with the latest arts, news, and all kinds of high-technology.  Besides, both the most museums and the best universities of one nation are mostly built in large cities.  Thus citizens in large city have more chances to feel this atmosphere and learn more from these.  Then they can get a wild visual field as well. In other words, my friend’s children can be cultivated with a better education than any other child living in a town.
   Furthermore, there are vast shopping mall and all kinds of bars among cities’ countless buildings which made up of steel and concrete composite structures.  People in cities can easily buy what they want to get. Convenience is another reason why my friend liking to enjoy in living in a city.
   More and more people would like to move from towns to cities in my country, although a person living in large cities must bear greater pressure.  Maybe more working opportunities and taking on better positions are the last targets of people in cities, as well as higher salary.
   However, admittedly various kinds of pollutions, such as the air pollution, water pollution and the chaos pollution, is going downhill in these years in big cities all over the world.  In addition, the more the people excited in cities, the worse the traffic jams in cities went downhill.  For instance, taxi drivers in large cities usually must waste two hours or even more hours to complete a half-hour journey, from Block one to Block 9 in the same street.  So one person who live in a large city must conquer these more or less disadvantages as well.
   A coin has two sides, we know. You can get many benefits from living in large cities, meanwhile you can bear and conquer other disadvantages from it.
If I have a chance, I prefer to living in a city because of its arts atmosphere, working opportunities, better educational quality, and all sorts of leisure life.

to sweetykathy (Kathy)
呃。。请问你写得topic是。。。
如果是跟我一样的topic的话，是否对题意有些误解呢？
题中要求的是your town or city，重点不在town或者city，而在于your，我是这么认为了
不是要讨论town好还是city好，而是描写你的城市的风土人情，那一些你的朋友会喜欢，那一些会不喜欢
所谓风，当然首推气候条件
所谓土，当然是指自然风光
所谓人情，不外乎名优小吃，历史遗迹

如果我猜想的没错，TWE里面另有一片让人选择town还是city的，sweetykathy (Kathy)写的是那一篇么？
