By taking the photos, I could record my trip easily I don't need to spend a lot of time on writting down what I see, so that I could rest more The interesting costume of the people, the exotic

architectures, the great scene, and so on, everything will be "written down" by the camera

Obviously, the photos are my whole life's treasure, because maybe I will never be there again

Not everyone could have the oppotunity like me to travel such a long time They may be busy all the time, or may not have healthy body to travel Fortunately, my friends could enjoy the photos I take during my trip They could see what interest me without stepping out their house

Furthermore, the camera may help me if I were in short of money I would exchange my camera

to get money in case of emergency The most valuable to me is the films I take not the camera itself

So, in addition to the personal necessities, I strongly recommend you to take a camera You could record what you see at anytime The photos you take will certainly be a fortune to share with friends And you can exchange money in your emergencies

When you see a beautiful view of rising sun, when you see a spectacular waterfall, when you enjoy the moment you travel with your friends, at this time, what do you especially want? I

believe the answer is a camera It is also what I would take in addition to clothing and personal care items when I plan to have a long trip Among countless factors, there are two conspicuous aspects as follows:

The main reason for taking a camera is a camera will record everything that happens in a trip If you encounter beautiful scenery, you can take a picture of it If you meet a humorous and nice person in a trip, you can have someone taken a picture for you and the new friend If you meet a girl you love in the trip, why not ask your friend to take a picture when you send a rose to her? Let’s imagine how disappointed it is if you do not have a camera with you at that time

Another reason can be seen by every person that each picture is a memory Maybe a person will take many trips in his life, if you take many pictures in each trip, you will find it is just like a novel about your own life When you are old, you will always recall many things that happened long before At that time, I swear that you will take out the albums and "read" them with happy tears You also can find how you loved the life and what a pleasant life that god gave you

Above the two reasons, you can find it is very important to take a camera with your trip And that

is my choice when I am preparing for a trip

Students moving into a new community and attending a new school can face a lot of problems Their biggest worry is usually fitting in The school counselor, the school's administration and the students' teachers can all help the students come through this experience successfully They can engage other students to become involved with the new students, too

New students in a school need to feel like pan of the school community as quickly as possible A

school administrator should begin by giving students a complete orientation to their new school They should take them on a tour of the school and show them the classrooms, gym, computer lab, band room, and cafeteria They should tell them about the history of the school, its academic achievements, and its athletic and debating teams The administrator can talk to the students about what's expected of them in the classroom and what rules the school has

The school counselor should talk to the students about what they're most interested in studying If these are older students, the counselor can ask them about career interests If these are younger students, the counselor can ask them about their favorite subjects at their old school The

counselor can tell the students about all the extracurricular activities there are at the school For example, the school might offer things like sports, art, music, and working on a school newspaper

The teachers have the most important job when it comes to new students It's up to them to help the students meet other students in class They can also help them learn how classes are

conducted in their new school They can encourage other students to make friends with new

people and help them learn the system Since they're with the students the most, they can keep an eye on them and make sure they're adapting well

Both the adults and the other students need to help new students feel apart of their new school It's not easy, but it pays off with happier, more successful students in the end

It is undoubtfullly important for a freshman to get accustomed to the new environment as soon as possible ,of course ,the ability of adaptation varies from one person to the other ,with the more tough situation for those who have never left his or her home and lived alone ,but what role

should the school play considering how to help the newcomers to adapt themselves to the new surroundings and the new atmosphere?

I think ,the school ,should at first offer the orientation service to the newcomer to aid them in becoming familiar with the kinds of buildings ,such as the lab buildings ,the teaching building ,the dormitory apartment and so on ,which will be at convenience for the newcomers' later study and life Then ,the school had better develop the relevant service network and hand out the brochure and other materials of the introduction of the school as welll as the service booklets ,in which all the service phone numbers should be included with the purpose of offering the service when and where.Besides ,the school should organize the volunteers to be at hand for the new students to consult and they also can give a brief introduction of the school

What is more ,the school should develop the atmosphere for the prospective students to feel at home and like to study and live at the school even at the first sight As we all known ,if impressed

by the scenery or some person or some where at the first sight ,we will naturally have a crave to experience the scenery again ,to keep in touch with the person ,or to live there for a long time even if you had at first planned only to stay for a couple of days there,so is the school If the new students are impressed by the the attractiveness of scenery ,the kindness of the volunteers ,the timely services and all the other things they have experienced at the first day ,it will inevitably attract them to live and study at the school

Of course ,dozens of services the school can offer besides the above said ,but the aim of the

service is the same ,that is ,to help the new students to get used to the new environment more quickly and make them love to study and live at the school and be free of nostalgia for some

I don't think it's a very good idea to borrow money from a friend It can cause resentment and awkwardness in the relationship How do you approach your friend without making him feel he has to do this for you? It's unlikely he'll feel as if he can turn you down Can he turn you down without insulting you? Probably not

How do you know whether your friend can afford to lend you the money? He may be

embarrassed to admit he's a little short of funds himself Or he might not want to disappoint you

So he lends you the money and then he needs money, too

There's also the question of when you'll pay back the loan It's awkward for your friend to ask for

a deadline for repayment Besides, if you're short of funds, you may not be able to predict when you'll pay him back What about interest on the loan? If it's a small amount of money, this doesn't matter However, if large funds are involved, and you won't be paying it back for a while, should you offer to pay interest? Should your friend ask you to pay interest? All these issues can result in hurt feelings and can harm the friendship

It's possible, of course, that if you borrow money from a friend and pay it back in a timely fashion, this will create a special bond between the two of you You'll know that you can count on your friend when you need help He'll know you're trustworthy

However, more often than not, money issues between friends are an embarrassment If you need money, it's better to go to a bank for a loan

The principal differences between my generation and my parents' generation are in how they relate to others My generation is more tolerant of other people's choices, less concerned about what others think, and more self-centered

My parents' generation has stricter standards about what kinds of behavior are acceptable They sometimes have a hard time accepting the fact that other people may have different ideas about what's right and what's wrong My generation thinks people should have a lot of choices For example, they choose whom they want to live with, whether or not to have children, whether or not to practice a particular religion, and what to do for a living

My parents (generation is much more concerned about what other people think of them Many grew up in tightly knit communities where people knew each other's families Fitting in meant that you had to act a certain way Many of my generation grew up in loosely knit communities, where

we only knew about our closest neighbors We didn't care what the rest of the community thought

of us Also, we were a very rebellious generation and often did things just to shock people

Wherever we grew up, most of my generation didn't have to worry about having enough to eat or

a roof over our heads My parents' generation did They grew up during the Great Depression, when many people were poor For this reason, my parents didn't have time to analyze their

feelings or think about their inner selves They were too busy trying to get by Children of my generation were well taken care of by their parents Because of that, we had time to think about

ourselves and our place in the universe As adults, many of us have continued to be self-absorbed

We join health clubs to be perfect in body and go into therapy to be perfect in mind

When I think about our actions, it seems that my parents' generation is more "outer" directed and

my generation is more "inner directed."

In my country, the lecture system is the most common system It is the one I prefer for three

reasons: I am used to the lecture system; it is an efficient system; I am too shy to talk in class

All my life, I have listened to teachers They come into the room, open their books, and start to lecture We students sit quietly at our desks and take notes We never ask questions because we don't want to seem stupid At the end of the course, we are given a test If we can repeat on the test what the teacher said in class, we will get a good grade

The lecture system is an efficient one The teacher is the one who knows the subject, not the

students It is a waste of time listening to a student's ideas What good will that do me? Time is short I want the teacher to give me as much information as he or she can during the class period

Even if we could talk in class, I would never open my mouth I am much too shy I would be

afraid the other students would laugh at me and make fun of my ideas I prefer to listen to the teacher and memorize the teacher's ideas

I hope I can always study in a school where they use the lecture system I think it is better to continue with what one is used to I also think that there is a lot of information that I must learn in the most efficient manner possible I wouldn't want to interrupt a teacher with my foolish

questions

Most countries already have many holidays In my country, China, we have nineteen official holidays However, I believe that my new holiday, "Walking Day" would be very beneficial and should be added to the nineteen holidays China already has In this essay, I will outline the three main reasons why "Walking Day" would be a very good holiday

First, walking is good exercise As we all know, people all over the world are becoming busier and busier They are studying more and more so that they can have better jobs When they work, they are working more and more As a result, people have less time for other important things in their lives, including exercise We can read reports in the newspapers everyday about people who have worse health and complain about poor health condition Many of these problems could be reduced

by exercising more and walking is one of the best and simplest exercises for people

Second, by walking, we can reduce pollution and thereby protect the environment As technology improves all over the world and people have more and more money, they are starting to use this money to buy automobiles As a result, people are using public transportation less and less

Driving one's own car every day has had a very large impact on the environment as a result of the pollution created by gas burning automobiles Walking is the perfect way to reduce pollution since there are so many other benefits as well

Finally, by walking, people can slow down the pace of their lives Perhaps this is one of the

greatest benefits of walking more Life at the beginning of the new millennium is stressful people are competing with each other for better jobs, countries and companies are competing with each other for business Many people start to forget about the importance of slowing down in their lives, of simply enjoying the moment People need to contemplate life more Walking is a perfect opportunity to slow down, think about life, and simply enjoy the big, beautiful world that we live

in

Finally, we could celebrate this holiday by encouraging people to walk instead of driving or taking the bus for at least one trip during the day I believe that people could find at least one trip during the day that they could make on foot instead of some other form of transportation For example, if people usually drive to a large supermarket to buy food, perhaps they could walk to a closer, smaller market to buy only a few things I believe that while people were walking, they would be able to enjoy the exercise and the fresh air and would be able to think calmly and clearly

In short, if I had to create a new holiday, I would create "Walking Day" because of the many simple benefits it could provide us

October 24 is Union Nations Day The day is noted in the calendars, but not observed as a holiday around the world I want the entire world to celebrate the birth of the United Nations because of its attempts to promote peace, education, and health around the world

Peace is the most important thing that we can have today The sooner that we can stop war the sooner we can all have better lives There are countries around the world that have been at war for generations In some of these countries, UN Peacekeepers have temporarily stopped the

violence so people can go about their lives If this peace could be made lasting, the lives of these citizens would be much richer

The UN actively works to promote education Universal literacy is one of its important goals Every child in the world deserves to know how to read and write The UN is also involved in job training for adults The age of information technology demands new job skills.-The UN works with continuing education programs around the world so workers are not left out of the job market The UN has played an instrumental role in the eradication of smallpox Polio vaccines and AIDS-awareness programs have also helped reduce the incidence of these diseases There is a lot to be done in these areas

Much of the work of the UN is unknown and underappreciated If we want to live in a peaceful world, where every child can attend school and where every citizen has access to health care, we need to support the work of the UN We need to recognize its importance and celebrate its

birthday

Between going on vacation and buying a car, I would like my friend to buy a car Below is why

The first and most important reason is that a car can bring him convenience Undoubtedly,

nowadays people rely on cars for transportation more than ever before For example, when he drives a car to go shopping, he may feel more convenient and can pick up more groceries than before because he can put groceries in the car trunk instead of carrying them by hands

Furthermore, when he wants to pick somebody up, or travel to a scenic spot, a car will make him feel convenient

Another great reason why I encourage my friend to buy a car is that my friend will not spend much time on commuting anymore Everyday we waste too much time on waiting for a bus or riding a bicycle to work We all experienced the frustration of taking a bus After having their own cars, such the problems will disappear automatically

Of course, if my friend decides to use his money to go on a vacation, I think that there are some advantages also For example a vacation may increase his personal experience and knowledge, and may even reduce many troubles that are related to a car But if all the factors are

contemplated, I think that the advantages of buying the car will carry more weight than those of going on vacation

From what has been discussed above, I may safely draw the conclusion that buying a car will be correct choice for my friend

Trying to decide how to use your money is always tough Should you use your money to buy a car

or go on a vacation? Both afford lasting pleasure, but of a very different kind From a vacation you get the pleasure of doing wonderful things and of totally relaxing and enjoying yourself The memories you bring home with you can give you that same pleasure again every time you think of them

A car also gives you pleasure, every time you drive it There's the pleasure of not having to

depend on public transportation You can go places off the beaten track, where public

transportation doesn't go There is also the pleasure of being independent You are able to go anywhere your car can take you, without depending on others

A vacation gives you the opportunity to learn new things and meet new and interesting people However, it's only for a short period of time A car gives you the same opportunities on a smaller level, but on a more regular basis With a car, you can go someplace new every weekend You can also join a car pool That way you can share travel expenses with the new people you meet

Some people might say that spending your money on a vacation instead of on a car is being

impractical But nothing is as satisfying as a really good vacation It's mentally and physically healthy It gives you a chance to get away from all that is familiar to you and see the world from a new perspective It lets you do nothing but play, the way you did when you were a child Being able to play, even for a short period of time, is absolutely necessary for everyone's mental health

I would choose the vacation, because we all deserve to indulge ourselves sometimes
