关于大学生兼职的英语作文:

Taking a Part-Time Job

Nowadays, many people think that college students should take a part-time job for several advantages. For one thing, it gives the students a chance to know the society to learn to be independent. For another, they can also get financial reward and working experience as well, which is helpful to their growth. Whats more, they can put what they have learned into practice, and know their strong and weak points so that they can improve their studies and personalities, which are beneficial in their later lives.

However, still many people think taking part-time job may have some negative effects on students. In their opinions, it will take them much time and energy, and will affect their studies as a result. Whats worse, some students may be so keen on making money that they may neglect their studies in the end.

In my opinion, I am in favor of taking a part-time job. But we have to keep a balance between the job and the study. After all, study is our main task at school.

Campus Security

Campus security has been a big topic many people pay great attention to. Students fight,injury and being robbed can be heard of from time to time.Some students have fights with each other,some are injured unexpetedly,some students belongings such as ,bikes and cell phones are stolen.Whats more,some students are extorted money by the bad boys in society.

What has caused these problemsIn my opinion,the reasons are as follow.First of all,students nowadays have less awareness of law.They cant tell what is legal and what is not.Second,schools dont have a good management. People in society can enter them easily.These people go into the campus,stealing and fighting.

But how to solve the problemsWe should strengthen the education on law in school,letting the students know what is right and what is not.Were supposed to place great emphasis on campus management.Only students can go into the campus and people in society can not without permission. I hope our campus is a safe and peaceful place for us to learn.

有关大学生结婚问题:

Since September this year, the college students are now allowed to get married in campus, which is declared officially by the National Education Bureau. The results of this issue take a broad influence on the colleges, even on the whole society. Some are in favor of it while some are against it. Whether college students should be allowed to set up a family has become a hot topic to be fiercely argued from then on.

Some believe it is reasonable for college students to select marriage in campus. Firstly, the college students have reached the national legal ages. Secondly, suppose two students are fall in love with each other. Is it necessary for them to struggle to avoid marriage until graduationThe couples are supposed to help each other, love each other and conduct the harmonious little family on their own. All the matters they are faced with will not only help them taste sweet produced by family but also get to know the hardness to sustain a family. Furthermore, college students are usually to be found living together. Such behavior has no difference from those done

after marriage. We should rather legalize such behavior than put aside them to happen secretly. However, some think it more negative than positive for college students to get married on campus. In their opinion, the college students, especially male students, are too young to be likely to shoulder the burdens brought by family and take the relative responsibility. On the other hand, it is showed by study that the devoice rate of those who get married early is much higher than that of those who get married late or at right time. Such high devoice rate is mainly due to the less consideration taken before marriage, even being a totally prompt impulse to some extent. Some stubborn problem appears gradually after marriage, which leads to the mutual discontents between couples and end up in devoice as a solution.

It that case, I think, with more supports from parents and society, we can cope with study and love more intellectually if we ideally balance the positive and the negative caused by marriage on campus.

关于大学生就业问题:

Today’s college students face choices unheard of years ago. Terms like two way selection, self-employment are not new to them. Many students swarm (蜂拥) into job market or look every talent fair (人才交流会) for potential employers. The concept of selling (推销) oneself rather than hiding oneself is well accepted by students.

Hunting a job is no small matter. Instead, it is probably one of the most, if not the most, important decisions any of would-be graduates can make in a lifetime. Therefore, they are very serious and cautious when that time comes. It is something that the society has taught them.Now more and more students lose their jobs when they graduate from school. Its easy for some students to find work. But the fact is that some students think the salary is so low that they dont want to do the job, they except to find an easy work with a higher salary. Like the reason above,some jobs have nobody to do it ,but somebody is free with no job.

As the job market gets shrinking, it has also become a must for undergraduates (在校本科生)to work harder than before to keep their competitive edge (保持竞争地位). More students are engaged in their studies with no distractions (分心，干扰). They are investing today for a promising (大有希望的，前途无量的) tomorrow.

As far as Im concerned, those students who want to find a higher salary but have no better job to do should be do an easy work from basic.Work hard on ,I believe through their hardworking theyll get a better job soon.

[竞争 英语作文

Different people have different views on success. Some hold that making a great deal of money means success. Others argue that holding an important post in the government means success. Still others believe that having a high academic title at a famous university or a research institute means success.

In my opinion, success means brilliant achievement in our work. In other words, no matter what we do, making outstanding contributions to the development of our country and bringing help and happiness to others is success.

To achieve success, we should, first of all, have a clear long-term goal in our life. Besides, we should have short term goals in different periods of life. As we know, it is these short term goals that make our long-term goal possible. Second, we should be both perseverant and hardworking. Whatever we do, there are always two possibilities: success and failure. We should never lose heart when we come across difficulties or when we are confronted with failure. Instead, we should learn from our experience, build up our confidence and work even harder and smarter towards our purpose. Third, we should follow the examples of those who are successful and learn from them. Finally, we should try to get along well with our classmates and colleagues. We should care for each other and help each other in our study, our work and our life, because team work is of great importance in the realization of our dream.

If we can follow these principles, we will certainly achieve remarkable success in our life.

[以成功为话题的英语作文

As soon as I was enrolled in college I reit a big burden off my mind. So did my classmates. We just wanted to relax. But at our first English Lesson on how to improve our study the teacher told us," There is no end to learning. You can only become a top student with additional work." And she says hard work is rewarding.

The teachers words awakened me. In fact everyone in the world is always learning. Mans talents are like wild plants. They need cutting and pruning with the tool of learning, We lears not only inside the classroom but also outside the classroom. Learning is a process in which man adapts to his surroundings. It is driven by mans desire to win respect and to contribute to society. It is the curiosity for knowledge stimulated by knowledge itself." To learn is to be young. Not to learn is to die." This saying applies to every society and to all ages.

Indeed, everyone living on earth is learning all the time. Man learns not only from books but also from his own experience We can not hope that as long as we learn we will gain benlfits. Efficient study is inseparable from good methods and motivation, A man of a strong sense of responsibility and full of ambition is insatiable in learning.

I entered the university after much efforts. I know it is only the first step on the road leading to the sea of knowledge. It is but the first page in the book of science. The further away ! am off shore, the more far-sighted! will be. The more you learn. the more you feel the need to learn. Art is long, life is short.

一进大学，我感到思想上卸了一个包袱，就像我们的同班同学一样，大家都想放松一下。可在如何提高学习水平的笫1堂英语课上，老师就对我们说：“学无止境。只有通过努力才能成为优等生。”同时还说努力学习是会有报偿的。

老师的话唤醒了我。事实上，世上每一个人都在学习。人的才能如野生植物，需要用学习这把工具予以修剪。我们不仅在课堂上学，而且还要在课外学。学习就是不断适应环境的过程。学习受“人要赢得尊重，就得对社会做贡献”的欲望所驱使。学习就是知识本身所引起的对知识的好奇。“学习使人年轻，不学习等于死亡。”这句话造用于任何社会、任何时代。

确实，世人无时不在学习。人不仅从书本上学，而且在经验中学。我们不能指望只要学习就必有所获。有效的学习是与好的方法与动机分不开的。责任心强且有抱负的人会学而不厌。

经过努力，我进了大学，但我知道，这只是通往知识海洋上的第一步，只是科学这本书中的第1页。离岸越远，视野越宽。越学越想学。生命短暂，艺术无涯。

This is a touching book, but also gives people a happy book, but also gives an enlightening book. This is Cao Wenxuan novel "grass house," I left a deep impression. Although I have not personally experienced a novel heroine Sangsang around what happened to some things, but small Sangsang and his partners often lifelike image to emerge in my eyes. Sangsang especially a good friend - on paper the miserable fate of not only caused the shock of my soul, I feel the life in the United States.

Paper, is a great girl, her brush is the word, Yau Ma Tei, primary school students in one of the best written, she will be back many ancient poetry, readings also very good, writing is not bad, but not on paper Yisiyihao the Best.

Although the paper on the growth in rural areas, not superior living environment, not gorgeous Yizhuang, in my eyes she was then the United States, like the lotus pond in Hanbaodaifang.

There is no doubt that traffic congestion becomes a growing worry for the

residents of most urban areas. Some major roads are regularly choked with

traffic in rush hours. The limited transport capacity contributes largely to the

vexing problem. How to solve the headache?.

The existing solutions to traffic jam mainly aim at creating metro bus

systems and broadening major roads. Widening the existing roads can solve

traffic snarls on some level. Soaring car ownership compounds the chronic

annoying problem, so we must sharply reduce the heavy reliance on cars and drive

a shift to the mass transportation. It is a cheap and good way. We can create a

system of customized bus routes and highlight the development of subways,

trolleys and light rail. The effective combination of these solutions will

enable the urban areas to possess a smooth traffic.

我们班有一个学习不是很好、很调皮的同学，他就是王xx

而他真的是很调皮吗?事实的确如此。但是我发现他身上有一个优点——乐于助人。

一次上数学课时，我的作业本破了，而我又没有带剪刀和胶棒。于是，我胆怯地转过身说：“王胤臻，我没有带剪刀和胶棒，你可不可以借我一下?”我焦急地问道。他看了看我，又用眼睛瞄了一下老师，对我微微一笑，点了点头。之后，便毫不犹豫地转过身，偷偷摸摸地将书包拉链拉开，手慢慢地伸进去，东翻西找，将整个书包翻了个底朝天也没有找到。那时正是冬天，我看见王胤臻的手被冻得红通通的，可是他还是不顾被书本刺到的疼痛，坚持帮我找工具。而在这时，老师正好看见了正在东张西望的他，很奇怪，于是一声令下让他回答问题。而他呢?却什么也不知道，用不解而又无知的眼神望着老师：“站着!”老师一声吼，我看见他的身体微微抖动了一下。

老师继续讲起课，但王胤臻并没有忘记要借我东西。只见他动作敏捷地在地上找，抽屉里找，都没有找到。但是，他是一个非常守信用的人，答应别人的事情就一定要做到。我想说“算了吧，下课我问别的人借吧!”可是，当我看到她那坚定的眼神，就没有说出口。他深深地吸了一口气，在如此“危险”的情况下帮我找东西，经过他的不懈努力，终于在它的语文书里找到了我所需要的工具。他缓缓地将东西递给我，我轻轻地接过他借我的东西，用敬佩的眼神望着他，心里充满了感激。而他呢?是因为我的原因，被罚站了一节课，我心里十分过意不去。我心想：他在老师和同学的眼里有很多缺点，但也不能够忽视他的优点啊!每一个人都是有优点的!

又有一次，老师让我们说王胤臻的缺点，当时我真是犹豫不绝。最后，我还是复述了别人的观点。

王胤臻就是一个可爱的、乐于助人的男生。

In recent years, a new type of online shopping is rapidly gaining popularity — group purchasing, which was originally introduced from foreign countries but is now widely accepted all over China. People can buy not only goods, but also all kinds of services on group purchasing sites.

Group purchasing is very convenient, and saves people a lot of money. But it also has some problems. Since group purchasing is nothing more than another form of online shopping, the nature of it is no different from other online shopping patterns. Problems that exist in online shopping also can be found in group purchasing, like deceptive advertisements or poor after-sale services.

In my opinion, we should treat group purchasing as a way of shopping and nothing more. We must be careful not to buy something we don’t need only to follow the fashion.

导语：共享单车是种更加绿色的出行方式，并且为用户提供了一种友好的体验，共享单车现在越来越常见，它们开始慢慢渗透进人们的日常生活中，下面是yuwenmi小编为大家整理的相关优秀作文，欢迎阅读与借鉴，谢谢!

About three decades ago, China was known as the “Bicycle Kingdom”. But the two-wheeled mode (方式) of transport’s popularity began to fade, with many bikes soon replaced by their fuel-powered competitors.

大约在30年前，中国被称为“自行车王国”。但随着自行车不久被燃油驱动的汽车所取代，这种双轮交通方式的热度开始衰退。

But recent months have seen a revival (复兴) of the humble (普通的) bike across China, with an increasing number of people choosing cycling instead of driving to schools, to workplaces or to do

sightseeing. The introduction of bike-sharing schemes, pioneered by start-ups (新兴公司) like Ofo and Mobike, has brought the trend to a new level.

但在近几个月中，中国大地上见证了一场普通自行车的复兴，越来越多的人选择骑车上班上学、游览观光，而非驾车出行。而由Ofo、摩拜单车等新兴公司发起的共享单车计划，则将这一趋势带向了一个新高度。

According to data compiled (编制) by iResearch Consulting Group, the first week of this year saw 5.85 million active users of Mobike while Ofo had 1.4 million active users.

根据艾瑞咨询集团整理的数据显示，在本年度的第一周中，摩拜单车共有585万活跃用户，而Ofo则有140万。

People can unlock the shared bikes by simply using their smartphone. The bikes are equipped with GPS and can be left anywhere in public for the next user. They’re popular among many Chinese people as they provide an effective solution to the “last mile” problem, which refers to the final leg of a person’s journey.

仅凭自己的智能手机，人们就能解锁这种共享单车。这些单车都装有全球定位系统，可以被放在公共场合的任何地方，等待下一位用户使用。它们受到了许多中国人的欢迎，因为它们有效地解决了“最后一公里”难题，即个人行程中的最后一段。

“In places where the subway doesn’t extend (延伸到), where it’s difficult to change from one kind of transport to another, it’s so easy to get where you want to go with Mobike,” Hu Hong, 29, told AFP. She pedals (骑自行车) to her Shanghai real-estate (房地产) job.

“在地铁线路覆盖不到的地方，很难换乘其他交通，用摩拜单车去你想去的地方就简单多了，”29岁的胡红(音译)在接受法新社采访时表示。在上海从事房地产行业的她都是骑自行车去上班的。

However, the schemes have also led to problems such as illegal parking, vandalism (故意破坏) and theft.

然而，这一计划也出现了一些问题，如非法停车，故意破坏和偷窃等。

Last month, two nurses in Beijing were placed under administrative detention (行政拘留) for five days for putting locks on two shared bikes.

上个月，北京的两名护士因在共享单车上上锁(占为己有)，被处以行政拘留5天。

And in December, a man who stole a shared bike was sentenced to a 3-month detention with a 3-month probation (缓刑期), and fined 1,000 yuan by the Shanghai Minhang People’s Court.

而在去年12月，一名男子因偷窃一辆共享单车，被上海闵行人民法院判处拘役3个月，缓刑3个月，并处罚金人民币一千元。

“Bike-sharing is a greener method of transportation and provides a user-friendly experience,” said Liu Xiaoming, vice-minister of transport. “But it’s a combination of online and offline business. Operators are usually strong in online services, but lack offline business experience, which causes problems.”

“共享单车是种更加绿色的出行方式，并且为用户提供了一种友好的体验，”交通部副部长刘小明表示。“但是这是一种线上和线下商业的结合。经营者的线上业务能力很强，但缺乏线下业务经验，导致了问题产生。”

In fact, these problems are also shared by bike-sharing schemes abroad. Launched in 2007, Vélib is a large-scale public bike sharing system in Paris. At its early stage of operation, it also suffered from problems of vandalism or theft.

事实上，这些问题在国外的共享单车体系中也同样存在。创建于2007年的Vélib是一个位于巴黎的大型公共单车共享系统。在其初期的运营中，它也曾遭遇故意损毁及偷窃等问题。

By Oct 2009, a large number of Vélib’s initial bikes had to be replaced due to vandalism or theft, according to The New York Times. Bikes were found hanging from lampposts (街灯柱) or thrown into the Seine River.

据《纽约时报》报道，截至2009年10月，由于故意损毁和偷窃问题，大量初期的Vélib自行车不得不被置换。这些自行车曾被发现挂在街灯柱上，或是被扔进了塞纳河中。

To deal with these problems, the company came up with the idea of encouraging people to return the bikes to stations by rewarding free time for their next rides.

为了处理这些问题，该公司想到一个办法：鼓励人们将自行车归还至站点，并在他们下次使用时奖励免费用车时间。

Now, Chinese service operators are also trying to address these problems. For example, Mobike sets a 100-point credit score for each user, with points taken in the case of bad behavior. Once a score drops below 80, bike rental is increased to 100 yuan per 30 minutes, up from 0.5-1 yuan.

现在，中国的服务经营者们也开始尝试去解决这些问题。举个例子，摩拜单车为每个用户设定了100分的信用值，行为不当将会被扣分。当信用值降到80分以下时，自行车租赁费用将会从每30分钟0.5-1元上涨到100元。

Our great motherland is one of the largest countries in the world. It has a population of over twelve hundred million. Beijing is its capital.

We Chinese people are brave and hardworking. We have a glorious revolutionary tradition. We drove out all the enemies. In 1949 the Peoples Republic of China was founded. Since then great changes have taken place in our motherland. Now our country is getting stronger and stronger. We Chinese people are working hard to make our motherland into a powerful country.

周末，奶奶说带我去公园玩！

一路上我又蹦又跳，来到到了公园，可是奶奶就跟她的几个老朋友喝茶聊天去了，没有小朋友跟我玩儿，我觉得很无聊就走到草丛边想去抓几只甲虫来研究。

正在这个时候，草丛边来了一位老爷爷。老爷爷右手拿着一把螺丝刀，左手拿着一个纸盒子。我觉得很奇怪就问老爷爷：“老爷爷，您拿这些东西干什么呢？”老爷爷说：“我挖几条蚯蚓钓鱼。”我一听立马来了兴趣，赶紧对老爷爷说：“老爷爷，让我来帮您抓蚯蚓好吗？”老爷爷乐呵呵的点了点头。

于是我拿起螺丝刀往土里使劲儿一插，然后再往上使劲儿一挑，一下子挑起一大块泥土来，掰开泥土，里面有几条又大又肥的蚯蚓正在扭来扭去。老爷爷说：“小朋友你还真行，一下子就抓了这么多蚯蚓，都不用我再动手了。谢谢你啊小朋友。”说完他就带着蚯蚓心满意足的走了。

通过帮老爷爷我才明白了老师说的那句话：帮助别人是快乐自己！

If I were a boy again, I would practice perseverance more often, and never give up a thing because it was or inconvenient. if we want light, we must conquer darkness. perseverance can sometimes equal genius in its results. “there are only two creatures,” says a proverb, “who can surmount the pyramids—the eagle and the snail.”

if i were a boy again, I would school myself into a habit of attention; i would let nothing come between me and the subject in hand. i would remember that a good skater never tries to skate in two directions at once.the habit of attention becomes part of our life, if we begin early enough. i often hear grown up people say “ i could not fix my attention on the sermon or book, although I wished to do so” , and the reason is, the habit was not formed in youth.

if I were to live my life over again, I would pay more attention to the cultivation of the memory. I would strengthen that faculty by every possible means, and on every possible occasion. it takes a little hard work at first to remember things accurately; but memory soon helps itself, and gives very little trouble. it only needs early cultivation to become a power.

halloween has always been a holiday filled with mystery, magic and superstition. it began as a celtic end-of-summer festival during which people felt especially close to deceased relatives and friends. for these friendly spirits, they set places at the dinner table, left treats on doorsteps and along the side of the road and lit candles to help loved ones find their way back to the spirit world.

todays halloween ghosts are often depicted as more fearsome and malevolent, and our customs and superstitions are scarier too. we avoid crossing paths with black cats, afraid that they might bring us bad luck. this idea has its roots in the middle ages, when many people believed that witches avoided detection by turning themselves into cats. we try not to walk under ladders for the same reason. this superstition may have come from the ancient egyptians, who believed that triangles were sacred; it also may have something to do with the fact that walking under a leaning ladder tends to be fairly unsafe. and around halloween, especially, we try to avoid breaking mirrors, stepping on cracks in the road or spilling salt.

but what about the halloween traditions and beliefs that todays trick-or-treaters have forgotten all about? many of these obsolete rituals focused on the future instead of the past and the living instead of the dead. in particular, many had to do with helping young women identify their future husbands and reassuring them that they would someday--with luck, by next halloween!--be married.

in 18th-century ireland, a matchmaking cook might bury a ring in her mashed potatoes on halloween night, hoping to bring true love to the diner who found it. in scotland, fortune-tellers recommended that an eligible young woman name a hazelnut for each of her suitors and then toss the nuts into the fireplace. the nut that burned to ashes rather than popping or exploding, the story went, represented the girls future husband. (in some versions of this legend, confusingly, the opposite was true: the nut that burned away symbolized a love that would not last.) another tale had it that if a young woman ate a sugary concoction made out of walnuts, hazelnuts and nutmeg before bed on halloween night, she would dream about her future husband. young women tossed apple-peels over their shoulders, hoping that the peels would fall on the floor in the shape of their future husbands initials; tried to learn about their futures by peering at egg yolks floating in a bowl of water; and stood in front of mirrors in darkened rooms, holding candles and looking over their shoulders for their husbands faces.

other rituals were more competitive. at some halloween parties, the first guest to find a burr on a chestnut-hunt would be the first to marry; at others, the first successful apple-bobber would be the first down the aisle.

of course, whether were asking for romantic advice or trying to avoid seven years of bad luck, each one of these halloween superstitions relies on the good will of the very same "spirits" whose presence the early celts felt so keenly. ours is not such a different holiday after all!

Wind blows up bags higher and higher in the sky. It is a scary thought that some day the earth will turn into a huge garbage land. Wastes, if not treated properly, will make our life a living nightmare.

The environmental issue is getting worse almost every day in cities with very large population. As is often the case, city development outpaces environmental protection. People consume great amount of natural resources and produce wastes. To effectively address such problems, cities need to spend big money. In addition, they need to call to the attention of people to become more environmentally responsible.

Many people are becoming less responsible and easily influenced by bad behaviors. “Why should I care while others shouldn’t?” Such idea makes some people only concern with places where they live and work. Furthermore, people sometimes even purposely litter for revenge to other people.

Although media promotes environmental awareness, good people are often snubbed as posers who try to set up a superior image in real life. Consequently, they are intimated of receiving negative comments for doing the right thing. Wrong as it is, such phenomenon is widespread especially among youngsters and people with low income and little education.

However, our society is waging a campaign against environmental pollution. People learn the harms of un-degradable lunch boxes and other polluting wastes. Laws in many countries prohibit or limit excessive use of polluting bags. Companies are continually replacing the old materials with more environmental friendly and recyclable kinds. Scientists have developed more effective technologies in waste treatment. As time goes by, more and more people put high priority on the protection of environment for a healthier life.

To sum up, people produce huge amount of garbage and the environment is seriously polluted because of lack of financial resources, sense of responsibility, or efforts. But the world will not turn into a “throw away” society if people put in sufficient efforts to protect our environment.

Dear Tony,

Chongyang, the traditional Chinese festival for the elderly, is coming around. We are planning to visit the Nursing Home to celebrate the speeial day, and we would like to invite students from your school to join us.

We have planned several activities. When we get there, we will visit the elderly in their rooms in groups, presenitng them with flowers and self-made cards to show our respect and love. Then we will do some cleaning and washing for them with the help of the nurses.

As some old people feel lonely. We may chat with them about their old days, changes of our city, or anything they are interested in. We may also give them some performanees: singing, dancing, and so on.

I am sure we will both gain a better understanding of the elderly in China. If you have any suggestions, please let us know.

Looking forward to your early reply.

Yours,

Li Hua

我相信在中国我们都能更好的了解老年人。如果您有任何建议，请让我们知道。

My Dream

Everyone has his dreams. As young students, we have many kinds of dreams.

These dreams are our China dreams. The dreams can be very big, and they can also

be small. In fact ,a big dream is made up of many small dreams.

scientist. From now on, I have to study hard to achieve my dream. I must learn

as much as I can. When I meet any difficulty, I won’t give it up , I must get it

over .

I’m sure it’s very important to dream,. Some dreams are more realistic,

others are not. No matter what our dreams are, we should hold on to them, they

can just come true one day.

Our city insists to protect the environment, so we began to use the Public Bicycle Service to reduce the traffic stress in 2008. There were 65 thousand bicycles for people to use in daily life.
