Traveling
People who like traveling have their reasons. They maintain that traveling can help them expand their scope of knowledge, especially geographical and historical learning They go on to point out that touring will provide more chance for them to enjoy food and try on clothes that they otherwise cannot possibly have Those who dislike traveling would argue that traveling means a considerable amount of money and energy.

If your finance and health permit you might as well do some traveling from time to time. It will at least enable you to get familiar with people and thing that you will probably grow to like and love 2. Advertisement Advertisement can be a service to people.

corporations have cheated their employees and stockholders, such as Enron and the World Telecom. As a result, both of them have gone bankrupt and the CEOs of the two corporations have been severely punished. They deserved the punishment because they have seriously destroyed the confidence of the investors in the US stock market and brought about a great turmoil. Everyone should learn a lesson from these cases Honesty is beneficial to everyone and it pays to be honest A person always obtains friendship, happiness and respect if he or she is honest. People with integrity never pretend to be honest. They always bear it in mind. Even when they are in great trouble they still stick to it and are willing to sacrifice any other things for this valuable virtue. And this helps them to be respectable and successful. Therefore, as university students, we must take honesty as a basic requirement, keep it in mind and practice it in our daily life study and work. (220 words 4.

Vacation long or short Some people favor long vacations because they can have enough time to do things that cannot be finished within a short period. During a long vacation, they may make a
complicated experiment, carry out an involved investigation or go to a far-away place for some necessary fieldwork Taking a full time job to earn money for one or two months s another benefit the long vacation provides And sometimes a good academic thesis with a considerable length needs a long vacation. Those who prefer short vacations also have understandable reasons. For two or three week's rest is adequate for students to refresh themselves without forgetting the lessons that are to be continued next semester. Short vacations also me an to rest three times a school year and short semesters. To study in this way is easier than to study for a long exhausting time with many courses and lessons crammed together. On the whole, either long or short vacation has its advantages and disadvant ages What matters is how to make use of it 6. Examination There are many arguments about the advantages and disadvant ages of examin ation Some people think examination is the only best way to test how examinees have mastered what they have studied and it is the only measurement for examiners to select which persons they need. While, on the other hand, some object that examination can't measure how the students have really studied. They say it can do nothing but burden the students As for me. I think for both examiners and examinees the examination can show what and how much the examinees have mastered. The results of examin ations are just like mirrors for both examiners and examinees. Through examination the examinees can check their work and get aware of which aspects they have not done well, so that they'll make much improvement in their work. As far as examinees are concerned, they can not only know how they have studied but also find out what they are still unknown or what they haven't mastered well. Thus, they will be inspired to greater efforts to improve their studying method so as to make greater progress. Of course too many examinations are burdens to both examiners and examinees In sum, the examin ation does more good than harm for both examinees. We must take a correct attitude towards examin ation. We should take full advantage of it and avoid
