Three Types of Cell-phone Users Are you a compulsive cell phone user; or do you busy yourself with a flood of messages while dining out? Are you more inclined to engage in a face-to-face conversation rather than texting; or would you feel rather annoyed when trying to talk to someone who can not spare one minute to look at you without tethering to their cell phone? Your answer to these questions will reflect your habits of using the cell-phones. In my observation, all cell phone users can be grouped into three categories based on their dependency—the addicted, the moderately dependent, and non dependent. Addicted users can never stop. They are also known as the “nomophobia”—a term describing a growing fear of being without mobile devices. Getting connected is not the most important thing—it is the only thing. Relentlessly hunting for the optimal wifi signals, they would rendered fidget and restless were their cell phone being taken away. This ‘’irrational fear” and the pang of anxiety has, arguably, afflicted legions of young people who are longing for a sense of belonging. Ironically, they’ve been connected across continents, but having trouble crossing the street to greet their new neighbors. Non-dependent users use their cell-phones only for emergencies. Senior citizens and some celebrities are typical of this category. Some still cling to a Luddite mentality “suffice it to say that hundreds of millions of people lived for thousands of years without cell-phones”, as one senior citizen proudly proclaimed. Some are fully aware of the pros and cons of the cell-phones and are willing to give up the boon only to avoid potential detriments—the starling quantities of misinformation and disinformation. There are also some the famous people like Nicolas Cage who famously declare “if someone needs to talk to me, they know where I live.” The third class of cell phone users— those moderately dependent users —constitute perhaps the bulk of savvy businessman, committed intellectuals and straight A students. They use their phones purely for practical reasons— making a handful phone calls, catching up with the fads occasionally. It is inaccurate, of course, to say they rarely use the cell-phones. They use them as a tool instead of being enslaved by them.

What is Freedom of Speech According to the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, “Everyone has the freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers”. This is the “officially accepted” definition of freedom of speech. Nevertheless, it is necessary to mention that the freedom of speech is a notion that has caused many controversy and a few boundaries need to be drawn accordingly. Initially, Freedom of Speech is one of the most basic rights of man. Every citizen, may, accordingly, speak, write, and press with freedom. It is essential to the exchange of ideas and to the establishment of of an inclusive and transparent government. A glimpse of Chinese history illustrated that almost any enlightened and prosperous dynasty was characterized by a cavalcade of righteous ministers who would speak bluntly to their emperor. Many would even risk their lives to argue with the nobility for the sake of public good. A good emperor, like Emperor Taizong of Tang, one of the greatest emperors in Chinese history, would allowed his ministers speak about hearsay with exemption of being accused of libel. Thanks to his modesty and open-mindedness ."Reign of Zhenguan"-a golden age was created. Freedom of speech, however, is not a matter of downright black and white; It is not something mockery - in the disguise of an expression of opinion. It is something said with due respect to the subject of the speech; It is something with many shades of gray. Therefore, certain boundaries must be drawn. On the Monday of January 7, two brothers, forced their way into the office of Charlie Hebdo, a French satirical weekly magazine and opened fire, killing twelve. This“deplorable”atrocity, arguably, results from the disturbing illustration of a growing offensive expression synonymous with Islamphobic, racist. The abuse of the free speech is also evident in the Internet whose unique characteristics allow users to present themselves anonymously, through the use of pseudonyms, avatars. Consequently, the Internet may be used for cyberbullying through inflammatory languages. Freedom of speech truly is a basic human right but it also assumes a level of responsibility on the part who exercise these freedoms as a invisible social contract. As John Stuart Mill put in On Liberty “The only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any member of a civilized community is to prevent harm to others".

My History Class As the day wore on,the sun climbed higher and higher,almost imperceptibly,ascended to its peak.Wrapping in my wildest dream,I was sapped of strength by the sun's torridity.Mr.Alfred,our history teacher,who invariably boasts his exceptional sparkling teaching methodology,is,as it were,a mundane sort of fellow.His afternoon class may well serve as a perfect antidote to the miserable insomnia during the sacrosanct siesta,albeit he contrived to explain his mesmerizing monotonous sermon on the epic history of Roman Empire.If it were not for the unexpected burst of the bell ring,I would still dwell in my medieval heroic adventure with Lord Baron. Waking to the reality reluctantly,I fumbled in my pocket for my cellphone.Alas!It's not my phone.As I contrived to hunt out the irksome dream-wrecker,the whereabouts of the bell ring was clearly coming to light,it turned out to be Emily's cellphone.In her bashfulness,she turned it off in a minute,even so, it was too late for her to dodge as nothing could escape the omniscient Mr.Alfred.Exasperated by the vibe-killing ring,he flashed his brown hawk's eyes through his thick glasses upon the dreaded Emily as if he would pierce her soul.Overwhelmed by her sheepishness,Emily flung herself face downwards on the desk.

Fuera de clase leo el periodico en inglés ,a veces lo leo en español .Me gustan todos los deportes,pero nunca practico ninguno en serio.A veces juego con mis companeros al futbol.Por la noche,hago ejercicios,suelo acostarme antes de las doce y yo,normalmente,me levanto a las seis y media.Creo que duermo poco y trabajo demasiada,pero "C'est la vie."

Fake Commodity：A Costly Threat Today，we are confronted with a plethora of fake commodities in China，from the everyday necessities to the life-saving industries.Some laud their convenience and relatively low price.However,in this essay,I intend to argue that those kinds of bogus products are detrimental both to individual's health and China's economy at large. First of all,numerous examples of life-threatening accidents caused by fake commodities have repeatedly shown that those products may present multiple risks.For instance,the counterfeit electronic devices prove to be susceptible to fire；the fraudulent medicines are often responsible for the growth of diseases.As a result,fake products have proven to be unsafe,if anything,downright deadly. Furthermore,the sells of the fake products threaten China's economy and suppress innovation.Over the years,we have grown numb with the fake phone,imitation KFC restaurant while the manufacturers have grown reluctant to create new products due to the prosperity of the fake products' consumer market.And,this,in turn,reduces China's competitiveness. By way of conclusion,I believe that fake commodities will continue to become more popular as the pace of life fastens.Given the threats associated with this trend.I believe that crackdowns on fake commodities will be warranted.

Seeing Is Not Believing Many people do not understand why girl like me would go faraway to attending college.Part of the reason is that I want to experience the diversity culture in China..Since I’ve never been to Chongqing ,only happened to catch a glimpse of it on TV and I was fed up living in the paradise ,as people would call my city,So I decided to savor just a little bit of the earthly life.No offense ,but to tell you the truth,I do have some negative impression on Chongqing ,like the worrying societal safety and the exhausting mountain road,the suffocating summer heat , let alone the horrible spicy food which I believe is definitely not in my DNA.However,Upon arriving at Chongqing,I was so thrilled about the new journey that I was about to embark.Everything seems to cast a spell on me ,the spicy hotpot and snacks,the warm-heart citizen,i will never forget when we were like a straying lamb ,roaming around the bus station ,hungry and helpless ,an old lady labored to show us to the right direction and introduce us to the local specialties ,and last but not the least,the breath-taking misty mountainous scenery ,you name it,all these Chongqing’s charisma never fail to enchant me.I was totally fell in love with this city at the first sight.Living here for more than a year ,I’ve picked up some local dialect that makes me feel I am one of you.I have constantly realized that seeing does not give all full proof,you need your senses to get information about the world around you .As sound cannot been seen ,nor tasted or touched.

Legalizing Marijuana In china ,we tend to hold a rather negative attitude towards marijuana,however,In America ,things are going in a different way , the last 40 years has seen the bitter war on this issue First of all,Marijuana is a formal name for 大麻 in Chinese， and it is originally a Spanish word,street name like pot,a little bit old-fashioned .Weed is by far the most common name we use to refer to marijuana.Compared to other drugs ,let me give you 3 facts of Pot.Fact #1Pot is the least dangerous.Pot is not an addictive drug,less addicted than coffee Fact#2 Pot will cause some short term memory loss.The effect is temporary and wears off completely and have no long term affects on the brain. Fact#3 The most dangerous thing about pot is getting caught with it,you can go to jail Why legalize it ?There are several reasons I make this claim. Although Pot has it's problems, it's benefits for outweigh it's consequences. If Pot were legal, many people would switch from alcohol to Pot. I think that a lot of Alcohol abuse come from the fact that it is the only legal drug and therefore is overused. Alcohol is highly addictive, physically and psychologically destructive, and is a severe drag on society. I think that if Pot were legal that many people would switch to Pot and be much better off. On top of that,Pot has many other functional uses.It can be mixed in food,brewed as tea and was the primary source of fiber for the production of paper thus would replace wood products saving our forests thirdly,Since marijuana is already one of the most popular agricultural products in the U.S., legalizing it would also mean that the increased Tax revenue Last but not least ,I would say that the war on drug is also the war on fighting racial discrimination......
