However, there are both advantages and disadvantages to live in the big city. Living in the big city do may bring much convenience to people. Because the supermarket, food shops and clothes shops are everywhere, you can make a purchase as you like. Furthermore, there are parks, zoos, museums and so on accessible to people, where people can relax from hard work mentally and enrich their knowledge.But on the other hand, the big city are always crowded, people living there are more likely to suffer from heavy pressure.What is more, the environment in the big city has been polluted, which has bad effect on the health of people.
In my opinion, we should pay more attention to protecting our surroundings when we live in the big city, making it greener and harmony. Only in this way, can we enjoy living in the big city to the full.

The other challenge may come from their family, or to be specific, the oversea students will be more likely to be homesick, especially for those who are in their first year, and their parents will share that feeling with them.

Despite all these challenges, there are still great amount of people choose to study abroad, because great challenges always come along with great opportunities.

I prefer to live in the big city. I was a rural child. When I was a little kid, I was curious about kids living in the big cities. Great school, modern equipment, luxurious house, they were one of my dreams in the childhood. But now, I am a college student, and I still want to live in the big city and I don’t want to be a small fish in a big pond. A big city always means more opportunities, more career development and naturally higher salary.
我喜欢住在大城市。我是一个农村的孩子。当我还是个孩子的时候，我就很好奇生活在大城市的孩子。大大的学校，现代化的设备，豪华的房子，它们是我童年的一个梦想。但现在，我是一个大学生，我还想住在大城市，我不想成为大池塘中的小鱼。大城市总是意味着有更多的机会，更多的职业发展、自然也就有更高的薪水。
In addition, my future children are inclined to get an education with a higher quality compared with the counterparts who live in the small city. Furthermore, there are more commodities and services, more available public utility, even more foreign guys to communicate with. You know, as an English major student, it is really essential yardstick.
另外，同样情况下，与小城市相比，我未来孩子也会想要得到更好的教育。此外，还有更多的商品和服务，提供更多的公共事业，甚至有更多的外国人可以进行交流。你知道，作为一名英语专业的学生，这是真的很重要。

什么事情都有优缺点。我不得不承认，住在在小城市里也有它的优势，如压力比较小，更多的新鲜空气和宁静的气氛。但就我个人来说，生活在大都市从来都不会是不明智的选择。

The challenges of starting a career after graduation.
Nowadays there is a growing concern over starting a career after graduation for the newly graduates. For years, the society has witnessed that a growing number of newly graduates remain unemployed after graduation, and the challenges may as follows:
First, students upon graduation may be overwhelmed by the social reality that their majors are not so correspond to the real work. Especially for the liberal arts graduates, because it's challenging to transfer theoretical knowledge into practical use.
Then, the newly graduates will have to face the challenge that most companies would prefer to hire employees with working experience. It is true that many students graduate with zero experience.
Besides, the high living expenses after graduation, taking rent as an example, is another great trial that can’t be overlooked.
There is sufficient evidence to show that starting a career after graduation is certainly challenging. But for the newly graduates, they still need to stay optimistic. The long life path is still at its beginning and the great challenges always come along with great opportunities.

A number of people prefer to live in countryside because they consider that living in big cities has many disadvantages。
许多人喜欢住在农村，因为他们觉得生活在大城市有很多的劣势。
First of all， the most obvious problem is traffic。 In big cities， traffic jam is quite common everywhere， especially in the rush time。 And a large number of people have to spend a great deal of time in going to work and coming back from work。 In addition， traffic accident is another threat。
首先，最明显的问题是交通。在大城市里，到处交通堵塞是很常见的现象，尤其是高峰期。很多人不得不花费大量的时间在上下班的途中。此外，交通事故也是另一个威胁。
Second， with the increase of cars and buses in big cities， air pollution has become another disadvantage of living in big cities。 Besides， a growing number of factory have also accounted for air pollution in big cities。 Consequently， many diseases caused by air pollution are emerging in an endless stream。
第二，随着大城市的汽车和公交车数量的增加，空气污染已成为在大城市生活的另一个劣势。此外，越来越多的工厂也导致了大城市空气污染。因此，很多疾病通过空气传播造成了无止境的污染。
Finally， another image of big cities is relative to noise， such as the noise of transportation， the noise of construction and so on。
最后，大城市的另一个形象是噪音，如交通噪声，施工噪声等。
In a word， living in big cities has many advantages but also disadvantages。 And living in big cities or countryside should depend on our personal preference and needs。
总之，生活在大城市有很多优点，不过也有很多缺点。生活在大城市或农村都应该是取决于我们个人的喜好与需求。

In recent years there has been a marked growth of fire accidents in big cities of our country. almost every day we see fire engines rushing through the streets. fires have not only resulted in heavy economic losses but also injured and killed many people.what are the causes of fire accidents? most of the fires are brought about by carelessness and violation of fire safety regulations. others are due to the poor quality of home electrical appliances. by the way, some people dont know how to use them properly. besides,there are quite a few businesses which focus so much of their attention on profits that they tend to neglect and even ignore fire precautions.
In my opinion, in order to prevent fires we should first of all foster peoples sense of fire prevention. the second thing we have to do is to increase the number of professional fire fighters, to whom regular training courses should be offered. finally, we are to improve the eisting fire engines and add more fire facilities to high-rise buildings. in this way, a reliable fire prevention system will be formed.

Housing problem has become one of the biggest concerns for people in big cities. With the rapid development of industry and great increase in employment, more people are swarming into cities. Accommodations have become ever difficult, causing inconvenience to people＇s work and life.
Many proposals have been put forward to solve this problem. Some suggest that more high buildings be constructed. Some insist that the underground be developed. Others propose that satellite cities be built. Still others argue that cities should be expanded to move people to the suburbs.
Personally, I am in favor of building satellite cities in the suburbs. For one thing, these cities are not far away from big cities. It is still very convenient for people to go downtown as they wish. For another, the fresh air and adequate space there will be a great attraction for people who are living in crowded cities. If many people move to the satellite cities, the housing problem in big cities will cease to exist. I am against the idea of developing the underground. Because compared with building satellite cities, it is more costly. With each house to light even at daytime, we need a lot of electricity. Besides, it witt deprive people of the fresh air and bright sunshine which they can get so easily when they are above the ground.

Great changes have taken place in the ownership of houses in cities in China from 1990 to 2000. While the number of state owned houses decreased, that of private houses increased. In 1990, seventyfive percent of the houses were state owned whereas only twenty five percent of the houses were private. In 2000, however, the proportion of state owned houses reduced to twenty percent and that of private houses increased to eighty percent.
There are many reasons for the great change in the ownership of houses in cities. The development of the economy is the most important one. Thanks to this development, people make more money than they used to. As a result, they can set aside some money to buy houses after their daily necessities are satisfied. The measures the government adopts may be the next incentive. Nowadays, people can have access to various kinds of loans from banks when buying the house. The large supply of housing may be the last reason. Wherever you go, you can see houses of various designs and sizes available for people to choose.
These changes will have a great influence on both the living standard of the individual and the productivity of the society. People can live in the spacious houses of their own and the government can increase the productivity by using the money from selling the houses.

With the rapid development and the overpopulated in this society, more and more people rushing into the big cities for personal development. So, the housing problems in the big cities is becoming more and more serious.
In my humble opinion, there are several ways to slove this problems. First of all, we can expend the cities, and build more apartment in the country. The fresh air and clean water will attract young people to live there. What’ more, the housing price will be lower than the big cities. Second, the government should control the price of the house. If the house is too expensive, many people may not be able to afford a house on their own. The government should build some cheap apartment for the poor, the young people. Last but not least, we should have more skyscapes, the land is limited, we need more space to support people to have a good living condition.
A good living condition is the key to social stability. if our country have enough houses, the pressure can be relieved to some degree. And our people can live a better environment.
随着城市的快速发展和人口的飞速增长，越来越多的人进入城市寻求个人发展。因此，住房问题日益严峻。
在我看来，有几个办法可以解决这个问题。首先，我们可以扩宽城市，在郊区建立更加多的公寓。新鲜的空气和干净的水资源会吸引年轻人搬到那边去的。更重要的是，郊区的房价会比城市便宜很多。其次，政府应该调控房价。如果房价太贵，很多人就会买不起房。政府应该为穷人和年轻人建造一些廉租房。最后，我们应该建造的摩天大楼。土地有限，我们需要的空间来给人们提供一个更好的居住环境。
好的居住环境是社会保障的根本。如果我国有足够的房子，人们的压力就会在一定程度上减轻。我们的生活环境才能更好。

Modernization and urbanization bring both benefits and problems. In order to solve the problem of housing, high-rise buildings have been and are being put up in ever greater numbers in more and more big cities.
High-rise buildings have their advantages and disadvantages, of course. In urban areas where land is expensive, they take up less space. Some people say that high-rise buildings can give a city striking beauty.Some buildings are apartments, which can house hundreds of families under one roof.
On the other hand, high-rise buildings may be dangerous.What if there is a fire or an earthquake? What if power and water are in short supply? In addition, high-rise buildings/blocks may not be suitable for children and old people.
To conclude,it goes without saying that high-rise buildings are necessary, but their number should be limited.At the same time, effective measures must be taken to solve such problems as the supply of water and power.

Nowadays there appears a phenomenon that the western customs are spreading into the east countries step by step thus making many inhabitants who live in big cities enjoy themselves on these western festivals such as Christmas Day April Fool’s Day etc. Such phenomenon shows us that the world people are getting close gradually and the world is becoming smaller and smaller as well.
Therefore in my opinion it’s a normal phenomenon s well as a necessary trend.First of all it shows that we Chinese have become much opener rather than clinging to some very old customs which are opposite our living. Looking back on the history we can find the answer to why our China was very poor and weak in the 1800’s. Yes the answer is that we closed ourselves not to let other countries know about us and this led us to a very hard road on which we suffered many wars that many European countries launched. So I think it is more than necessary to accept other customs instead of closing ourselves. Of course festivals are just the beginning.What’s more the Open and Reform Policy results in this. So I want to say it is a great achievement for the policy. Since we took the policy into practice our country is developing with a rapid speed. No doubt it is an essential trend.Last but not the least we may get closer and closer not only to our home friends but also to many foreigners. We can never feel embarrassed for not knowing the other’s customs and manners.
And more misunderstandings can be avoided as well.To sum up the trend has its great advantage to a certain extent. However if we admire the western customs too much it will be a disadvantage because China is our own country all of us should enjoy a patriotic heart. Wish in the near future we can see the situation that westerners are enjoying themselves on the Spring Festival.

My favorite city in the world is Auckland, New Zealand. It is one of the world's best cities for living, also known as the "City of Sails" and the Queen City. There are many harbors， beaches, oceans and mountains, among which is the famous Rangitoto volcano.
If you like history, you can visit the Auckland Museum, the Auckland War Memorial Museum, the New Zealand National Maritime Museum and so on. If you like shopping, then go to the Queen Street, Parnell Road, and Ponsonby Road and enjoy yourself. If you like nature One Tree Hill, which is named for its lone tree on top of the hill will not disappoint you.At the foot of the hill,there are crowds of sheep and green grass.All is truly the Newzealand countryside style.
If you want to learn about Auckland's education, you can visit the University of Auckland.It's one of the most famours universities in the world.Founded in 1883，it has two campuses，sometimes you have to take a bus to go to different colleges
Auckland is an English-speaking country, so if you want to visit there, you'd better learn some English, or you‘ll have to take a transator with you.

——a traversing between Andy and I. I don’t know why, why this is happening to me. Andy is just a character from a Sharon Draper’s book ‘Tears of a tiger.’ And I am a person in real life. But I feel sort of connected, to the person above heaven. This sounds crazy but true. I can hear his calls; feel his pain, spreading into the empty air.
It’s all my fault. My fault. I shouldn’t be drinking and driving. And I killed Robbie.
I wanted to die right after the accident. I should be the dead one, not Robbie. I mean, he had his life all planned and I’m sure he’ll do great when he comes to his age. But I? I don’t know anything yet, it’s like I can’t see the future, and my eyes are blinded by the darkness. Yes, the darkness surrounding me tightly, choking me to death. Most of all, no one will care if I was gone.
Right. I’ve got no one around me. Mum, she’s too…well, unreasonable. We never open our hearts to each other, we kind of stay out of each other’s ways. Dad is plainly lame, he never talks, he yells. And all he cared about was good grades, which I haven’t got. I stopped asking him things before I turned twelve. I ask him a question, and I get a lecture, its easier that way.
Keisha, she used to know me. We were tight until…the talent show, when she burst out of the hall way, never looking back. She left, just like everyone else did.
The only one that’s real cool is my younger brother, Monty. He can really make me smile. But too bad, he’s only six. And what can a six year-old do? He was silly enough to put a dragon in a jungle and tears on a tiger. You know what I’m saying? And he insisted that the tiger and the tears were supposed to represent me and my pain. I ain’t no tiger, and I ain’t got no pain.
No pain. I’m just…cold.
Do you think Robbie is cold? Seriously, it could be real freezing up there. My geography teacher told me that places with high elevation has low temperatures. Is Robbie lonely? Will there be basketball up there in heaven?
I dreamt of Robbie, demanding me to go up, go up to keep him company.
Aw what am I thinking? Robbie is dead. He’s dead for god’s sake. And I killed him.
It’s all my fault……
I can’t take this anymore. I feel like the pain is crushing my guts open.
Last night, I stood there on the mountain. I became sort of hypnotized by the slick whistling of the cars as they rushed beneath me. And I wanted to jump. I just felt like I should be down there, like if I were part of that fast moving rush, I wouldn’t feel anything anymore and everything would be cool again.
Oh man. Only if I never existed. Never existed……I wish I could sleep for ever.
It’s not that I want to die; it’s just that I can’t stand the pain of living anymore. I just want the hurt and pain inside to go away. It’s like a monster in my gut- eating me up from the inside out. Actually, I feel like the only thing that’s keepin’ me from going crazy is this terrible terrible pain.
I’m sorry for all I’ve done- so sorry…so very, very sor—
It’s dark where I am
And I cannot find the light.<
There are shadows all around me
Everyone is cheerful
They can never see
That storm clouds are forming
Upon the peaceful sea.
I cannot see the future
And I cannot change the past<
But the present is so heavy
I don’t think I’m going to last.
Dear Andy:
You are probably on your way to the heaven, where there would be no pain, forever.
But don’t you see, life isn’t perfect, but it’s at least life! There are tons of people out there trying to survive, and you took your life for granted!
Andy, you silly fellow. Why did you do that? Why do you still blame yourself for something Robbie will forgive you for?
You didn’t die in that car crush for a reason, god needed you down here with us. But what have you done? You’ve taken away every single hope of ours.
Suicide is the coward way out, brave man face their problems, and what does that make you? Death isn’t the solution and it will never be. What were you thinking when you held your father’s shot gun in hands? Did you ever think about your parents? Your family and friends? What would they feel? Yes, I admit, it’s your life and you can decide to take it or not. But it’s also connects other people’s feelings, and you have no rights to hurt them, but hurt them anyways.
There are things beyond our power to control, and we can’t do anything about it.
If you feel depressed, wreck it. Cry, and you’ll feel all lightened up. Who says tigers don’t cry? It’s just that tigers don’t cry in front of people other people. Andy, there are no shame in tears.

If I had my life to live over……I would have talked less and listened more. I would have invited friends over to dinner even if the carpet was strained and the sofa faded. I would have taken the time to listen to my grandfather ramble about his youth. I would never have insisted the car windows be rolled up on a summer day because my hair had just been teased and sprayed. I would have burned the pink candle sculpted like a rose before it melted in storage. I would have sat on the lawn with my children and not worried about grass stains. I would have cried and laughed less while watching television - and more while watching life. I would have gone to bed when I was sick instead of pretending the earth would go into a holding patter if I were not there for the day. I would never have bought anything just because it was practical，would not show soil or was guaranteed to last a life time. There would have been more“I love you”……more“I‘m sorry”……but mostly，given another shots at life，I would seize every minute……look at it and really see it……live it……and never give it back.
