1.Where to live—in the City or in the Country
（1）一些人喜欢住在城市，因为城市生活有许多便利。
（2）有些人喜欢住在农村。
（3）我认为„„
Some people like living in the city because city life has many conveniences advantages.They think there are more job opportunities in cities，living there is more colorful and meaningful than that in the country，and there are more modern conveniences in cities for people to enjoy.
But some other people prefer to live in the countryside.They say life in the countryside is closer to nature , better for their health and is quieter and that country people are more honest than city people.

2.Saving and Spending Money ① 过去与现在存钱与花钱现象的对比。 ② 针对现象分析原因。 ③ 我的看法。
According to a statistical study, several years ago, people spent more than half of their total income on food.After that, they tried their best to save the rest.Now, in contrast, they spend more than what they save.Most people’s income is put in consumption of clothes, recreations, travel, investment, education, etc.There are several reasons why people use their money so differently in the past and at present.First, it is due to people’s living standard.In the past, most people didn’t have much left after they considered their daily expense.Therefore, it often required years of savings to buy one of the neceary household appliances.Now, people’s living standard has been raised greatly, and they can afford expensive things like house or child-education.They can also enjoy a variety of recreations.The second reason lies in people’s ideology and their life style.In the past, they must save up their own money cent by cent to buy anything they wanted.Nowadays, they dare spend money that will be earned tomorrow through loan, installment or mortgage.Finally, people can enjoy long holidays than they did before.Travel agencies, big shops and stock markets all arouse people’s desire to consume.
As to my opinion, we should divide what we’ve got into three parts: one for investment, one for saving and one for spending, Only in this way can we feel secure if one of them comes to nothing one day.Rockefeller once said, “Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.”

3.Which to Prefer, Health or Wealth? ① 健康与财富，哪一个更重要？ ② 阐明理由。 ③ 得出结论。
If I were asked to choose between health and wealth, I would prefer health to wealth, for I think nothing is more valuable than health.There’s a saying: “Good health is the best wealth”.Although money can bring much to us, it means nothing to one who is not in good health.A person who is in poor health can not make good use of his abilities or riches, and will gradually lose all his interest in life due to illne.Money can buy many things, but it can not buy good health and happine.On the contrary, if one is strong, even though he is not rich, he can try his best to overcome all obstacles lying ahead of him and achieve succe one day.Therefore health is the foundation of one’s future succe and health is happine.In one word, health is above wealth, and we must try every means to keep fit.Health is the most valuable poeion one can have.No one can afford to lose it.【范文解析】 这是一篇议论文，第一段直接阐明自己的观点：健康比任何东西都更珍贵。第二段作者从正反两个方面论述健康比财富重要，身体不好不能实现自己的理想，金钱无法弥补这一缺陷；反之健康能给人带来成功和幸福及财富。最后一段作者总结观点，强调健康胜于财富，告诉人们应想尽办法保持身体健康。

7.low-Carbon living
(1)当今社会提倡低碳环保的生活方式； （2）低碳环保的生活方式的益处； (3)我该怎么做。
low carbon living
Presently, a new lifestyle called low carbon life is spreading every corner of our country.The concepts of low carbon are low energy and no waste.It is such a significant project that I can’t wait to present my ideas on how to promote it.
On the first place, a no-car day is supposed to set up every week in our school.Because cars not only cause serious air pollution but also waste energy.On no-car day, neither students nor teachers are allowed to drive to school.Meanwhile, just walk, jump, cycle or run.Use our legs and enjoy the fun.On the second place, we had best not use plastic bags any more.No one can stand the “white pollution”.So, it is wise to use bags which can be reused again and again.Finally, one thing that we should keep in mind: every big thing comes from the subtle.Therefore, as students, we ought to turn out the lights the moment we leave, turn off the tap in time, and reuse our textbook and so on.
All in all, it weighs greatly for all of us to put the low carbon lifestyle into practice.Just set our mind to these: no-car day, no plastic bags, and no waste.Let’s do it now.8.City Problems

Nowadays, with the development of our economy and society，there has been a steady rise in the number of rural laborers who flood into big cities.This phenomenon has aroused considerable concern from the whole society.Why does this phenomenon take place？People tend to focus on three fundamental reasons.First and foremost, there is no denying the limited land can no longer produce enough crops for an ever-increasing rural population.In addition, it is obvious that there are far more opportunities in big cities—rural laborers dream of earning money through hard work and hope their children receive good education.Last but not least, they are able to have a colorful and meaningful life in the city.

This is the matter that happened around me which made me realize the seriousne of the food safety problem.I sincerely hope that the whole society could attach much importance to this iue.
