Essay——Wether robots are important to human’s future development Topic:Some people think that robots are very important to human’s future development. Others think that they are dangerous and have negative effects on society. Discuss both opinions and give your personal view. With the development of science and technology, living standard has been improved largely. There are a great number of robots being used in our life, like automatic sweeping machine, robot waiter etc. Some people point out that robots play a vital role in human’s future development. Others, however, believe that they are adverse to the society. Here I am going to discuss both views. Obviously, the emergence of robots promotes the productive efficiency. For instance, in the past, it might take people one day to wave a piece of cloth. Nowadays, people can finish a bolt of cloth in a few minutes by manipulating machines. Furthermore, using robots can reduce the expenses of companies. Robots can work 24 hours a day and seven days a week, without rest. In other words, it helps companies cut down the cost of employment largely. Lastly, robots can replace people to do some high-risk jobs, say, mining, blasting, which guarantees workers’ safety. On the contrary, robots also cause some harmful effects on our society. A growing number of robots are used in working places, and substitute mankind, which could result in the increase of unemployment rates and could influence social stability. For example, currently some restaurants have robot attendants which could lessen some people’s job opportunities. What’s more, robots cannot deal with emergencies. They only can do what human demand. So sometimes we still need people to take effective measures, especially when it comes to a matter of life or death. One more thing, overusing robots could make people become lazier and lazier and foster the dependence on machinery. To some extent, it could bring a backward step on human’s development. In short, even though robots have some negative sides to society, from my own perspective, the advantages of robots surpass the disadvantages of them. I believe as long as we make use of them appropriately, they can not only make our life more convenient and effective, but also boost the development of modern science and technology.

Essay——The qualities of life of people in big cities Topic: Today, the qualities of life of people in big cities are worse. What are the causes of this problem? Any measures should be taken to solve it? Nowadays, the pace of life in big cities has become faster and faster, people who live there lead a busy life. They feel happy no longer and the qualities of their life have been declined constantly. Let me present what the causes for this problem. To begin with, houses in big cities are extraordinarily expensive which results in people living under enormous stress of housing loan. The reason for the housing shortage is that every one wants to live in a big city, because of its sophisticated infrastructure and favorable education. In addition, the sheer volume of cars also contributes to the reasons of the dropping qualities of people’s life. On account of too many vehicles, traffic jams take place quite often in big cities. People are forced to spend a good deal of time during their daily commute. Meanwhile, the waste gas from cars pollutes the air which makes people live in a hazy and adverse environment. Apart from that, the intense employment competition in big cities is considered as one of the reasons. As we know, there are many job opportunities in big cities, people would like to come and exploit them. It means people need to compete among those excellent people to get the job, which increases the burden on people. For this problem, here are some measures which should be taken. First of all, the government should take more efforts to develop small cities and encourage people live there so that we can relieve the intense demands of housing in big cities. Besides, improving the public transportation and restraining private cars is also a good choice. It not only reduces the number of cars, but also helps to improve the environment. Lastly, we can encourage young people to develop and run their own business in their hometown by offering them some good conditions. In that way, there will be more job opportunities being available in small cities. All in all, although there is a long way to solve the problem of the declining qualities of people’s life in big cities, I believe as long as we continue perfecting it, people will lead a happy life wherever they live in.

whether planning future is a waste of time Nowadays, whether people should have a plan for the future has triggered off a heated discussion. Some people think of planning future as a waste of time, they prefer to focus on the present. Speaking for myself, I would not go along with this point of view and the reasons are given below. First of all, planning future helps people to set up a clear goal. In the current society, people are up against to a good deal of choices about their future in life. However, their energy and time is too limited to do everything. Planning future enables people to make sense of what choice is suitable for them and pick it as their specific aim. Then, they could devote themselves to achieve the goal. As a result, it will be easier for them to be successful in the minimum time. In addition, planning future can improve people’s ability of dealing with affairs. For instance, students who preview the lesson in advance can grasp the key points more easily. A boss, who always has countless meetings and negotiations, need to schedule his time so that he can make everything under control. Finally, people sometimes need to make plans in advance for those undesirable incidents, such as signing a health insurance contract. It can prevent people from feeling panic and reduce the loss of their property. In conclusion, planning for the future is definitely not a waste of time. It is more important than just focusing on the present. It not only motivates us, but also improves our competence. In spite of many uncertain elements in our future, we should make great efforts to plan properly. It will make us lead a happier life.

Questions Q: What kinds of people become famous? I think those people who are beautiful and outgoing will become famous easily. Obviously, there is a truth that a handsome man or a beautiful woman is much admired in society. Because most people, even very smart ones, like to appreciate beautiful things. Apart from beauty, an outgoing personality is important for people to become famous. To be famous means you will be known by many people. In other words, you have to show yourself without shyness and try your best to get attentions from other people. Q: What kinds of people do you think should become famous? I think people, like Yo-Yo Ma, should become famous. He is an artist, and his artistic attainments have been reached world-class level. He has been invited by American president to perform in the White House. Furthermore, he is also very nice. Now he is quite famous in America, but not everyone knows him in China. So I think people who have extraordinary ability and good personality should be known by everyone. Q: What responsibility to society do famous people have? I think famous people should take great responsibility to society. They have so much influence and authority over people, so they should pay more attentions to their behaviors, and act as role models, instead of giving negative impacts to society. For example, if a famous actor didn't pay attention to his behaviors, it’s easy for children to copy them and use them in their life. So, I think famous people are not just to be part of entertainment, but set up a positive effect to society. Q: Is your neighborhood noisy or quiet? My neighborhood used to be very quiet. However, these days, it became quite noisy, because of a neighbor living upstairs. They have two little boys, who make noisy every morning. They strike the floor and play basketball at home. It’s so annoying. I can’t have a good rest since they moved into our building. Actually, I told their parents about the noisy, but it seems doesn't work. I can’t endure the noise that they create all the time, but I can't do anything about it.

The famous foreign person I want to meet The famous foreign person I want to meet is Oprah Winfrey. She is a well-known host in America. She is regarded as one of the most influential women in the world. She has her own TV channel and magazine. Besides she is also an actress, this is why she is called ‘the Queen of all Media.’ I admire her, because she is a tough woman and has a good personality. I read her story from the news. She has lived a difficult life before she became successful. She had an unlucky childhood and unpleasant teenage years. But she didn't surrender to her poor life. She worked hard, and struggled to make her life better. Finally, she did it. I like watching her shows. She is such a lovely woman. Unlike other hosts who just want to show themselves. Oprah used her show as a platform to teach and inspire people who have had experiences similar to her. If I meet her, I would probably be too excited to speak. But If I could, I really want to take a picture with her, and say ‘ You are the most wonderful person in the world, I hope I can be successful as you.’

Answers to the questions Q: Is riding bicycles common in your town? A: Yes, riding bicycles is common in my town. These days the number of riding bicycles has been increasing. Because people realized that riding bicycles not only is good for our health, but also can reduce the air pollution. If home is not so far from company, people prefer riding bicycles to go to work, instead of taking bus or driving private car. There are many advantages of riding bicycles. First, riding bicycles makes you healthier. Second, you don’t need to worry about traffic jam. Third, it can help you save money. So, I think riding bicycles will be more and more common in the future. Q: Have you ever given someone a gift you made yourself? A: Yes, I have given my mother a gift that I made by myself on Mother’s Day. It was a video I recorded to show how much I appreciate my mother's time and effort she spent on raising me. I still remember what my mother looked like when she saw the video. She was moved to tears and gave me a big hug. That is the first time I've made a gift by myself. I was so happy that my mother liked it. Q: How do people maintain friendships? A: There are many ways that people maintain friendships. One is to have fun together. This might be obvious, but sometimes it’s easy for us to get into a trap of using our friends for emotional support, and not taking time to enjoy their company. Second is to show interest in your friend’s life. For example, if your friend plays a sport or is acting in a play, go to a game or performance to cheer them on. Third is to build trust. If your friend tells you something personal, don't share it with other people. They need to know that they can trust you with their secrets. Q: Do you live with your family or friends? A: I live with my friend. She is my colleague. We rent an apartment near our company together. I think living with friends is better than living alone. There are many advantages of living with friends. First, you never feel lonely. You can eat together, play together, and do house chores together, you will never feel bored doing house chores. Second, when you forget to bring your keys, you don’t have to worry about it, because your friend brings her keys. Third, your friend can share the rent. It helps you save money. So I like living with others.
