英语作文 篇1
Dear Sir,I'm writing to tell you something about our discussion on the topic“Whether Middle School Students Can Carry Mobile phones (Cell phones)" at the class meeting.Forty percent students agreed, for they thought it was convenient for them to communicate with their relatives and friends. They also thought they could surf the Internet to search for some information and store some useful information in the meantime. Besides, they could play games for rest if they feel tired after a long time's study. However, sixty percent of us were against it. They said the radiation of cellphones was harmful to health, and the ringing sound did somewhat affect the cellphone holders and others. Also, cellphones were luxurious things for middle school students and it was easy to lead them to compare with each other.As far as I am concerned, I agree with the majority. It is not suitable for middle school students to have cellphones. We can get in touch with others by other means and we can read more books to enrich ourselves.Best wishes.

Staggering
Things are slow to change in America's boardrooms
THE annual review of American company board practices by Korn/Ferry, a firm of headhunters, is a useful indicator of the health of corporate governance. This year's review, published on November 12th, shows that the Sarbanes-Oxley act, passed in 20xx to try to prevent a repeat of corporate collapses such as Enron's and WorldCom's, has had an impact on the boardroom--albeit at an average implementation cost that Korn/Ferry estimates at $5.1m per firm.
Two years ago, only 41% of American firms said they regularly held meetings of directors without their chief executive present; this year the figure was 93%. But some things have been surprisingly unaffected by the backlash against corporate scandals. For example, despite a growing feeling that former chief executives should not sit on their company's board, the percentage of American firms where they do has actually edged up, from 23% in 20xx to 25% in 20xx.
Also, disappointingly few firms have split the jobs of chairman and chief executive. Another survey of American boards published this week, by A.T. Kearney, a firm of consultants, found that in 20xx 14% of the boards of S&P 500 firms had separated the roles, and a further 16% said they planned to do so. But by 20xx only 23% overall had taken the plunge. A survey earlier in the year by consultants at McKinsey found that 70% of American directors and investors supported the idea of splitting the jobs, which is standard practice in Europe.
Another disappointment is the slow progress in abolishing "staggered" boards--ones where only one-third of the directors are up for re-election each year, to three-year terms. Invented as a defence against takeover, such boards, according to a new Harvard Law School study by Lucian Bebchuk and Alma Cohen, are unambiguously "associated with an economically significant reduction in

sleep is very ancient. in the electroencephalographic sense we share it with all the primates and almost all the other mammals and birds: it may etend back as far as the reptiles.
there is some evidence that the two types of sleep, dreaming and dreamless, depend on the life-style of the animal, and that predators are statistically much more likely to dream than prey, which are in turn much more likely to eperience dreamless sleep. in dream sleep, the animal is powerfully immobilized and remarkably unresponsive to eternal stimuli. dreamless sleep is much shallower, and we have all witnessed cats or dogs cocking their ears to a sound when apparently fast asleep. the fact that deep dream sleep is rare among pray today seems clearly to be a product of natural selection, and it makes sense that today, when sleep is highly evolved, the stupid animals are less frequently immobilized by deep sleep than the smart ones. but why should they sleep deeply at all? why should a state of such deep immobilization ever have evolved?
perhaps one useful hint about the original function of sleep is to be found in the fact that dolphins and whales and aquatic mammals in genera seem to sleep very little. there is, by and large, no place to hide in the ocean. could it be that, rather than increasing an animal＇s vulnerability, the university of florida and ray meddis of london university have suggested this to be the case. it is conceivable that animals who are too stupid to be quite on their own initiative are, during periods of high risk, immobilized by the implacable arm of sleep. the point seems particularly clear for the young of predatory animals. this is an interesting notion and probably at least partly true.

英语作文 篇5
Large Companies and Small Companies
Upon graduation from college， young men and women face the first choice in their career life： to go to a large company or a small one？ Although many graduates are attracted by the prestige of large companies， I believe the small one will afford more chances of success and more opportunities to develop your ability.
There are two basic differences between the large and small enterprises. First， working in the small company you operate primarily through personal contacts； you have more chance to develop your communication ability and the ability to handle various kinds of personalities. In contrast， in the large company there are established policies and fairly rigid procedures. Even the man at the top is only a cog in a big machine： you needn‘t make any decision and can’t see the effect of your work…… Second， in a small business you are normally exposed to all kinds of experiences and expected to do a great many things without too much help or guidance. Thus， you may acquire much more skills and experience， and develop the ability to handle different， complicated things. But in the large corporation， since you are normally taught one thing and limited to one procedure， you may become the man who knows more and more about less and less.
Obviously if you want to gain more experience and ability needed in business organizations and to become an excellent manager or executive in your future career， working in a small company is your best choice.
大型企业和小型公司
大学毕业后，年轻的男人和女人在他们职业生涯中面临的第一个选择：去大型公司或小的吗？虽然很多毕业生都由大型公司的声望吸引了，我相信一个小的将会承受更多的成功的机会和更多的机会去发展你的能力。
有大企业和小企业之间的基本差异。第一，在小公司工作的你操作主要是通过个人接触；你有更多的机会发展你的沟通能力和处理各种各样的人物的能力。相比之下，在大型公司有既定的政策和严格的程序。即便在高层的人在一个大的机器只有一个重心：你不必做任何决定，不能看到你的工作......二的`影响，在小企业里你一般会接触到各种各样的经验和预期，没有太多的帮助和指导做许多事情。因此，你可能会获得更多的技能和经验，并发展处理复杂事物的能力不同。但在大公司，因为你通常是教一件事，局限于一个程序，你可能会知道的人越来越少。
如果你想获得更多的经验和能力，企业需要在你未来的职业生涯中成为一个优秀的经理或主管，在小公司工作是你最好的选择。

Directions：Write a composition entitled Online Examination. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:
1.现在一些大学开始试点进行在线考试，也就是网考;
2.请简述网考的优势和所面对的挑战;

参考范文：
Online Examination
The pilot project of online examinations recently is under heated discussion in the universities.Though online examinations have been tried in some foreign countries,they are still fresh for Chinese colleges. People hold unanimous views on them.
Online examinations have their own special advantages of creating a just environment for tests,which is called green tests and permits no cheat because each student will have a different online paper.However, the popularization of onlineexamination is unavoidably facing many challenges,such as the establishment of a complete performance criterion on online examination,principles of supervision and strict training of staff,but among them the most important one is the requirement for equipment.Due to the unbalanced development in education,many universities in some remote areas are incapable of purchasing so many computers for testing and create an examination point.
In spite of so many challenges for online exams,as a reform of modern examinations,I believe that online exams will be adopted in more examinations.Every trial will be perfected in practice and there is no exception to online examinations.
亮点词汇：
Pilot n.飞行员 v.领航 adj.引导的
unanimous adj.全体一致的，一致同意的
popularization n.通俗化，平易化，普及
be incapable to 无法

英语作文 篇9
The sports meet of our university was held on a charming spring day.The stand around the playground was packed with spectators.Firt came the parade of the opening ceremony.Athletes walked into the field in orderly arrays.After the opening address was delivered,the athletes withdrew.Then there was a performance of group callisthenics.
The contests and races of track and field events were exciting.The runners of 100 metre race dashed to the terminal point.The winner took the lead only by a small fraction of second.A boy athlete gave a javelin a lorceful throw.It shot across the sky and arrived at a point far ahead of the former record.A girl athlete,in a long distance race,stumbled over the foot of another athlete and fell down.She rose to her feet,clenched her teeth,and continued her running.The most attractive is the relay race that was so intense that all spectators cheered,hailed and applaused.
The sports meet was over.Our athletes not only gained a good harvest of prizes,but also strengthened their body and tempered their will.
