Do grades encourage students to learn Grade may be very important for almost every student. In some way, grade is a essential judgment standard to decide which kind of student he or she is. For my point of view, grades encourage students to learn. First, grade can be a kind of pressure for students in some aspect. And this kind of pressure is motivation. Students may think the one who gets high grades is a good student. And the pressure of grade is left in the students’ mind invisible. Students could try their best to get high grades. This is when the pressure comes out. Under the motivation, students may be more struggled to achieve the goal. They will learn more. Second, grade is helpful to strengthen the students’ confidence in study. If the students get good grades in the exam, they will think that what they did make effects on studying and they were not wasting the time. Success in the exam is good for strengthening the confidence whether about study or in life. Once students are full of confidence, they will go all out to learn with the purpose to be a winner. This is a virtuous cycle. At last, grade can give students more opportunity to become successful. Students with high grades can be prominent; also many people can take notice of them. So more opportunities can be provided for the good grade students. The opportunities may be to attend a better class or a better school. The more opportunities students get, the more they will learn. These are all good for them to be successful. Although the grade may bring bad effects on students, I think the advantages is more than disadvantages. All in all, the grades do encourage students to learn.

Entertaining movie Movies are very important element of people’s life! There are so many kinds of movies in the world, serious movie or entertaining movie. The entertaining movie has witnessed unprecedented boom. Different person will have different opinions based on what people like and dislike. As for me, I would express my appreciation for entertaining movie. First of all, entertaining movie can release our pressure. Entertaining movies present the facts of the society in different and funny ways. It attracts people’s eyes and they affect people’s felling. When people are in low sprit and under big pressure, entertaining movie may be a good choice to release. In this kind of time, they may be totally for your fun. <Rush Hour >is a typical example. Li and Carter is good partner, but they have many different opinions. The temporary partner created a lot of misunderstanding and joke. But with the crisis happening, two people gradually have created rapport. The story makes audiences buried in the plot of the story. You will gradually forget and go out of the pressure. Secondly, entertaining movie is easy to understand. The main goal of the entertaining movie is to make people laugh, so the movie is expressed as a funny way. People have no problem learning the story of the movie. For insurance, Chaplin uses his behavior to express the story. He is funny and although there is no sound in the movie, people can easily understand what he is saying. Chaplin’s excellent performance leaves people a deep expression. From the entertaining movie, we can learn more about the culture despite the serious movie also express the culture. But it is not the all. From the entertaining movie, we can learn the difference between china and western country. From the little thing ---- the standards of the laugh, we can deeply go into the daily life to know about the foreigner’s custom and their culture.
