On SpaceProject 5lxq-E3
给《**周刊》宇航专栏的编辑写一封信,说明你对太空探索项目的态度(支持或反对),并简单陈述你的理由。 >Y'yM4e*
Dear Editor, Mdrv
/x{
Thank you for your starting a specia1 co1umn jor the discussion on spaceprojects. Frankly, it seems to me that our space projects so far have been inthe main a waste of money, time, energy, human lives and resources. DjIswI1I
The richer countries are pouring large sums of money into space researchprograms which are of no benefit to human beings while in underdevelopedcountries thousands of people are dying of hunger. Besides, many scientists’time and energy are wasted, which could have beendevoted to improving our living condition. What’s more, many astronauts havedied complete1y uselessly in space vehicles which have been faulty. They wereyoung people who hadn’t enjoyed the fruit of life yet. N ]7a=
Apart from human wastage, there is the wastage of resources which are finiteand essential if man is to survive. I think it’s hightime we stopped these meaningless programs. t60/f&A#7H

On Power Failure 7=.VqC^
Recently, every morning when I wake up, I find my air-conditioner automaticallyturned off . I didn’t understand why at first , but soon Ilearned that there was a great shortage of electricity supply in our city – my air-conditioner turned off because of a powerfailure midnight. 87(^P3
;@
With the rapidly developing industry and the ever-increasing population, demandfor electricity supply is soaring. Besides, summers in recent years are muchhotter than before , so most working places and households are air-conditioned, which consumes additional electricity. thPH_DW>eb
Face with such a hard nut , we have to find ways to crack it . Above all , inwestern areas China, there is surplus of electricity supply. So , cities that are thirsty forelectricity may ask for remote help. Then ,when we have electricity , we shouldremember to save it . Set your air-conditioners at 27C and you won’t feelless comfortable than when they are at 26C. In fact , some factories already shift their working hours to avoid the peaktime of electricity consuming. My parents don’t workfrom Monday to Friday as before – they workform Saturday to Wednesday and have the following two days off instead. This isalso a way out , isn’t it? 56Y5kxmi

Being online is nolonger something strange in our life. To some degree, it has become part of ourdaily life. We can do a lot of things online, such as searching for informationand communicating with friends far and near. But recently another helpfulonline activity has become very “in”. That is online education. Ul713Bjz
Why could online education be so popular within such a short period of time?Among other reasons, the quick development of the internet should be anessential one, which makes all our dreams of attending class in the distancepossible. Another underlying reason is the quick development of both societyand technology. Today ,modern science and technology is developing withlightening speed. To catch up with this development we all feel an urgent andstrong desire to study. However , due to the great pace of modern society ,many people are too busy to study full time at school. Online education justcomes to their aid.

Personally , I appreciate this new form of education. It’s indeed a helpful complement to the traditionaleducational means. It can provide different learners with more flexible andversatile ways of learning. Most of all ,with online education, we can sick toour jobs and at the same time study and absorb the latest knowledge. h>^jq{yu

Many large cities are anything but pollution-free. Our cities have manyfactories, which we need to make food, clothing and other things. Every yearthese factories pour millions upon millions of tons of smog into air. Powerplants and houses that burn coal add greatly to air pollution. Besides , thereare more cars in cities now. Once out on the streets, they will take in freshair and replace it with poisonous gases. rGn5QV
Our country is trying hard to prevent and control air pollution. As long asevery citizen also realizes its importance and makes join efforts, the day willcome soon when people will take in only clean air. Then , the sunlight will nolonger be blackened out by smoke and soot. 22Y!u00D

distinctdifferences between being a small fish is a big pond and a big fish in a smallpond, so it is with working as a subordinate in a large enterprise andpresiding in a small firm. LA;V}%y?
With the former, you can derive a deep sense of satisfaction from being amember of a well-known organization such as General Motors, or the BellTelephone System. You have the opportunities of learning from experiencedexecutives and knowing about the standard working process. A"BtVy[[9
With the latter, you have greater responsibilities and your decision may bringimmediate effect. Normally you are expose to various experiences and expectedto do a great many thing without much help or guidance.

Personally I prefer to work in a small enterprise, where my prospect ofpromotion is good as long as I work hard. To tell the truth , I’d rather become a well-known and important figurewithin my own small pond. 1O]5/Eu

3.我的看法 s0\f9D
Some people enjoyliving together with their parents after they have grown up. They hold theopinion because , living with parents , they can take better care of theirparents and vice versa. Meanwhile , they can turn to their parents for help ifthey get into trouble or have some difficulties. To them, life in a big familyseems to be more enjoyable than that in a small family. z@Z_] h
Others, however , prefer to live separately. They cherish the idea to beindependent of their parents, seek more freedom and wish to have a place oftheir own, in which they can do what they like. Bedsides , they don’t want to be overprotected by their parents but longfor chance to face the society by themselves. 5D]30
As to me , I like an independent life style in spite of the fact I love myparents. Different generations have different life styles and values. What onegenerations likes may not be another generation’sfondness. Living separately , each generation can enjoy different value. Inaddition , by leading an independent life , I can train my character anddevelop my own ability to deal with things encountered in my life. k%Ma4_Z

My View on the income Gap SG

JVUZ}#O
Now the income gap isgetting wider and wider. In some privately owned firms, joint-ventures, orforeign-funded companies , an executive’s yearlyincome is ten times or even a hundred times as much as an ordinary worker’s H}) Dcg3
Faced with this situation, people will undoubtedly have different opinions.Some believe that it benefits the social and economic development since drivingforce is often derived from the gap. In other words , the gap inspires peopleand gives a push to advancement. Other speak of its side effect: income gap isoften the root of social unrest and also contrary to our country’s principle.
93E,
From my point of view, while it is true that the income may stimulate thesocial development to some extent, it causes trouble as well. An income gapthat is too wide for most people to bear can neither contribute to thestability of a country nor promote its economic development. Therefore , whilewe are advocating the rapid development of our country , we should tolerate thenarrow income gap but narrow the wide one. inr%XS/m

A good teacher-student relationship is ab1e to effective1y furtherthe student to a higher level in study. The teacher with patience andunderstanding encourages the student instead of pushing or forcing him. Therelationship of this sort makes learning so enjoyable and funny that thestudent would work hard willingly. a"0B?3*r46
However, a bad relationship seriously weakens the achievement of teaching. Itdiscourages the student from 1earning, leaving him with a wrong and negativeattitude towards studying. Thus, teaching also becomes an unpleasant task,which forms a vicious cycle. YBYB OH
As I see it, the relationship between a teacher and a student should beattached much importance to. A good relationship makes the teacher’s job worthwhile while a bad one ill-affects thestudent’s development, even to the rest of his life. dWsT Jyx~

Traveling by Train or by Plane ]vm\3=@}9

3.你的结论如何 Dc5bkm
When we go on abusiness trip, we will be faced with the choice of traveling by train or byplane. Before making the right choice,we hadbetter make a close comparison and contrast of them. w+q?T
First of all, a train will take us to our target railway station. Also, a planewill take us to the target airport, Second,in a train we can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the countryside. Likewise, ina plane we can command a good view of fields, buildings, mountains and evenplains of clouds. Despite these similarities, they differ in the followingaspects. First, a train ticket is cheap. Most of us can afford it. However, aplane ticket is about twice as expensive as a train ticket. Most of us grudgepaying for it. Besides, it is safer to travel by train. If the train gets intosome trouble, we may survive by jumping out of it. On the contrary, if wetravel by plane, we have to ask God to bless us. However, it takes us longertime to travel by train than by plane. Wm<z?.lS
Therefore, it depends which transportation tool we should choose. If we justwant to save money,we will travel by train; but if we want tosave time, we will turn to the plane. cvKV95bn

Dear Fang, rFhW^fP/
I understand that you are in a dilemma. Although so many graduates are eager toset feet on their work-life road, there are still some who prefer to starttheir new life after gaining another degree to make better preparation forentering society. In my opinion, the latter are more admirable. You are good atall your course these years, so if you do like to spend another two or threeyears on campus, you should stick to it. In today's society, the achievementand status you can get and the devotion you can make are no doubt in proportionto your educational background and degrees, coupled with the efforts you put inthem. If you want to stride to your destinations more smoothly and easily, whynot head for the further study courageously? d4%dIR)
Whichever you choose, I firmly believe your industry will ensure your success.After all, it is you who have the finally say on the final choice. {]=v]O|,
