			<description><![CDATA[<span style="color: #FF4500;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">The best way to reduce the number of traffic accidents is to make all young drivers complete a safe driving education course before being licensed to drive.<br />
</span></span><br />
<br />
Traffic accident is one of human beings' fatal enemies. The major cause for traffic accidents is lack of safety awareness. Therefore to complete a safety driving education course is a very important way to reduce the number of traffic accidents.<br />
<br />
However, the key point for this issue is people's awareness towards safety. It is a long-term goal rather than a single course for safety driving.<br />
<br />
Actually, the safe driving education course has already been undertaken in China. To get the driving licenses, people should attend a one-month training for traffic rules and pass the examination on regulation before they take further on-road examination. During the traffic rules training, the lecturers re-stress several times the critical role of safety in driving. During the on-road exercises, the coaches emphasize repeatedly the importance of safety in daily driving. Further, during the examination, most of the students get high marks, which indicate that they are really well equipped with all safety knowledge. However, safety related traffic accidents still occur and the peace-breakers are not only young people, but also the middle-aged and experienced.<br />
<br />
Safe driving education is a long-term commitment and should be carried out with a regular basis. Many cities, which have implemented the quarterly safety training for those already obtained driving license, have made remarkable achievements. Their approach should be followed and gradually spread out all over the country. Only by this way can people build up their self-conscience for safety driving; only by this way can people pay enough attention to their daily driving work and only by this way can people reduce safety-related traffic accident fundamentally.<br />
<br />
In short, the best way to reduce the number of traffic accident is to enhance people's awareness towards safety driving. A single safety driving educational course will not help too much.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<span style="color: #FF0000;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Human being does not need to eat meat in order to maintain good health because they can get all their food needs from meatless products and meatless substitute.<br />
</span></span><br />
<br />
Meat provides human beings with a lot of nutrition needed for maintaining good health. People get protein, fat, heat and cholesterol etc. from meat to build themselves stronger than ever.<br />
<br />
However, along with the development of meatless products and meatless substitute, people can also get their nutrition needs.<br />
<br />
Vegetarians are the best example. They don't eat meat, but only depend on vegetables, eggs and milk. They live a happy life, working everyday, doing sports, going for disco and traveling for sightseeing etc. Most of them are in such good health, they can even compete with athletes in sports games. Monks are another example. Due to their faithful religious belief, they are not allowed to eat any meat, yet they are in good shape. Children as young as 5 know Shaolin Monks, who can play Shaolin wushu. These monks are the essence of the Shaolin Temple. They protect people's interests and punish bad guys. During war time, they stood out to protect a nation's sovereignty and dignity by making use of their Kongfu. Moreover, the secret of longevity is to eat meat as little as possible, according to most of people over 100 years old.<br />
<br />
Theoretically, people will be in good health so long as they have enough protein and vitamin. People can easily get protein from milk and egg, while get vitamin from fruits and vegetables. Science and technology makes everything possible. It can even clone sheep and cow, let alone their meat.<br />
<br />
Based on the above, my conclusion is that people can live without meat, particularly along with the advancement of the science and technology, which can create more meatless substitutes. People can maintain good health, even if they do not eat any meat.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<span style="color: #FF4500;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Writes an essay, considering and assessing arguments for and against the following view:<br />
As reading is important for a good education, we should encourage our children to read whatever appeals to them.</span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
The famous English philosopher Francis Bacon said, "Reading makes a full man". Reading books can strongly shape you inclination, mature your thoughts, widen you horizon and enrich your personality. Life is limited, but knowledge is boundless. The more books we read, the more knowledge we get. Hence, We should encourage our children to read more books.<br />
<br />
However, books can also be harmful, particularly the pornographic books. Bad books contain evil thoughts. In them, there might be much description about violence, superstition, and s6. Let's suppose that you are in the position of a parent. Would you allow your children to read whatever appeals to them? If your answer to the question is "yes", you are either extremely permissive or just plain irresponsible. If children read bad books, the evil thoughts would poison their mind gradually. They will be dispirited and perhaps commit a crime.<br />
<br />
Good books, on the other hand, teach and help children to do good things. Good books are children's real companions, and they are both instructive and inspiring. Children know past events from history books, study communication by language book, learn space and numbers through mathematics books. In a word, different kinds of good books can give them a large amount of ideas and knowledge.<br />
<br />
Consequently, those who read good books can be inspired to grow healthily, while those who read bad ones will lead a wicked life and meet with miserable failure. So before we encourage our children to read books, we should teach and help them to identify good and bad books.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<span style="color: #FF0000;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Zoos are sometimes seen as necessary but poor alternative to a natural environment. Is it necessary to keep animals in zoos?</span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
In the modern society, zoos are almost indispensable places in large cities for people to visit. In some large zoos, there are various animals from space to sea, and from primitive invertebrates to advanced and intelligent mammals. In the zoos, all animals, including those rare animals, such as panda, Africa elephant, and North-East tiger, could enjoy good care and protection away from any hurt. However, along with the stronger natural environmental protection consciousness, many people think that to put animals into small cages will change their living instincts, and therefore break the ecological balance.<br />
<br />
Viewed from the basic relations between animals and human beings, animals should have the equal freedom with human beings. They are all forms of life. Animals have their own living instinct, and it is this instinct that forms the biological chain of the Earth. This relation is called ¡°Ecological Balance¡± academically. For example, insect¡ªbird¡ªsnake. If most birds in a region are killed and locked into cages by human beings, the pests will eat out all crops, and snakes will lose a large part of food (bird)-resources, therefore leading to starvation and death.<br />
<br />
This opinion sounds ideal theoretically. However in reality, human beings and other animals cannot stay together peacefully on the Earth. Because of human beings' lust for fortune, many valuable animals are killed or sold, especially those endangered species. Therefore, zoos appear as an active way for people to protect those poor animals. First, this is an action not only for animals but also for human being itself. Once the biological chain is broken, human beings will be punished inevitably. Next, zoos can serve a purpose of educating and entertaining people, narrowing the distance between human beings and animals.<br />
Last, zoos can be a scientific study center to rescue more endangered spices and make animals better serve people's need.<br />
<br />
The key point of this topic is freedom or protection. In my opinion, those two aspects can be unified. It is necessary to keep animals in zoos for the purpose of protection, teaching and study. Let's think it further, the purpose of all these actions is to make animals live happier, therefore, maintain the ecological balance, hence protect our own living environment.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[<span style="color: #FF0000;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Children learn best by observing the behavior of adults and copying it.</span></span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
The Process of growing up is very complex for children. Among countless factors that influence children's growth, the behavior of adults plays a significant role in shaping children's inclination and character. After the baby is born, the first and the nearest adults are his/her parents. Although the baby is just slur pronunciation, the little baby has started to learn from their parents by observing and copying the adults' talk. This learning environment is important for the babies.<br />
<br />
There is a special case reported by the press. A baby was abandoned when she was born. A sow fed her as a piglet. When she was about eight years old, some villagers found her, her intelligence was just similar to the two-year old baby and all of her behaviors were looked like a pig. From this case, we know child is a "mirror" which will reflect the behavior of the closet adults.<br />
<br />
Along with the children's growth, adults will influence them much more, such as logical thinking, making decision, cooperation with others, etc.. The behavior of adults can give children both good and bad influence. Most of the behaviors represent adults' inclination. For instance, if media report chiefly on the shadow side of the society, children will easily incline to violence and excessive s6. Therefore, they will be infected with bad mental state.<br />
<br />
Behavior is a direct and convincing method to teach children. Things are easier said than done. Parents always tell children those principles repeatedly, but most children can not accept it through these boring method. Adults' behavior is the most effective education method to let them observe the whole process of how to deal with the problems. The children will learn from you naturally.<br />
<br />
Children are like young trees, they need to be carefully irrigated, fertilized and trimmed. Your behavior will be greatly helpful to shape them into useful talents.]]></description>

<br />
I am a business man from America, and my name is David Smith. Last month it was the first time that I traveled to Beijing for business, signing a contract with a Chinese food company. Unfortunately I got a bad flu and then had a fever. I was sent to your hospital. Because my temperature was nearly 40 degree centigrade, I was asked to be in hospital. I worried about my business and the delay of signing the contact will lead to great losses to my company. However, After the doctors' careful treatment and nurses' patient care, I was recovered only in 4 days.<br />
<br />
I completed the negotiation with the food company smoothly and signed the contract on time finally. So I sincerely appreciate all the staffs in your hospital who helped me full-heatedly. I was deeply impressed by the kind doctors and nurses, the pleasant and comfortable environment, and considerate services. I have no relatives and friends in Beijing, but I felt at home in your hospital. I will always remember all those warmhearted persons and your hospital in my heart.<br />
<br />
Best wishes to you all!<br />

Sincerely yours,<br />

			<description><![CDATA[<span style="color: #FF0000;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">PROS AND CONS OF POCKET MONEY</span></span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
With the development of our modern society, people's living conditions become much more comfortable. But along with intense competition, parents have less time to consider children's needs in all-round. One method to solve this ontradiction is to give children some pocket money. Pocket money is useful to children. But whether the children are considerable enough to make correct use of these money.<br />
<br />
There are two viewpoints about the pocket money. Some people think that giving children pocket money will make them become luxurious. Others think that will not lead to such disadvantage. In my opinion, both of them are partially reasonable.<br />
<br />
Someone believe that giving children pocket money really has many advantages. With pocket money, children can buy their daily necessities such as pencils, little toys, and snack food they like. It will give children a certain freedom to select what they want, make them aware rules of the equivalent exchange.<br />
<br />
Since time to parents is very precious, giving pocket money to children help them to save time spent in shopping, but used in busy working and earning money.<br />
<br />
<br />
Others insist that there are undoubtedly some disadvantages in spending pocket money. First, young children do not know how to use pocket money appropriately, they possibly consume all the money to buy expensive merchandise that they like, and then ask for extra money from their parents.<br />
<br />
Some parents cosset their children, and always give them a large amount of pocket money. Such conditions will make children become more and more prodigal. Second, since adults do not supervise the procedure of shopping, children could probably buy something that is not suitable for their age, such as small child magazines.<br />
<br />
Judging these two viewpoints above-mentioned, I think that parents should give their children a limited amount of pocket money. There are some preconditions: the amount of pocket money must be finite; the parents should instruct their children how to use the money moderately and what is suitable to them; for a costly merchandise, parents themselves should take children to buy it. With these preconditions, pocket money will do no harm to their children.]]></description>

I am a reporter from the News Weekend. Because of the demand of my work, I often come to Beijing to do interviews. Your hotel is my favorite, because of the comfortable living conditions, and the considerate service, especially your excellent food.<br />
<br />
The restaurants in your hotel have many kinds of delicious food such as Chinese food, Japanese food, French food and so on. Among these delicious foods, I like the Beijing Toast Duck best, not only because of its Chinese characteristics but also its special taste for people from all over the world. So every time I come here I always choose this course.<br />
<br />
Furthermore, what impressed me most is the high quality service, it always makes me feel at home. Waiters and waitresses are so kind and warmhearted that they always earnestly recommend every new or special food of the restaurant. I will recommend your hotel and restaurant to my friends without any reservation and hesitation.<br />

Hope your hotel and restaurant will be more prosperous in the future.<br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #FF0000;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Dear President, November 11, 1999</span></span><br />
<br />
I 'm very happy to hear that a famous author has donated considerable money to our institute. And I think we could use it to establish an education fund to aid our teachers to study abroad.<br />
<br />
Firstly, teachers could increase their teaching level and enrich their knowledge by studying aboard. For teachers of a language institute, this kind of experience is really necessary. Teachers would consider that as a kind of prize and therefore work harder for that. Secondly, our institute could be benefited from doing that. Since we could provide the overseas-studying chance for our teachers, graduates with high score in the Normal Colleges are more willing to come to our institute. Thirdly, that will help our students. Our last year's survey showed that 65% of our students prefer the language teachers who had overseas-studying experience.<br />
<br />
In a word, I think that using the donated fund to assist our teachers to study abroad is a good way to promote the healthy development of our institute. <br />
Please take good consideration of my advice. Thanks!<br />
<br />
<br />
Yours sincerely,<br />

<br />
In 01/01/2000, I took flight CA983 from Beijing to Los Angeles. When the flight arrived at Los Angeles, because of my carelessness, I left my handbag, a black leathered bag, on my seat. There are some important things in it, including my passport, ID card, credit card, some checks and one thousand US Dollars. But the most important thing is my business address book, in which record all my clients' phone numbers and appointment agenda in the following two weeks.<br />
<br />
Since this bag is very important to me, my friends told me that I should contact your department to seek help, so I write this letter to you anxiously. Hope you and your staff can help me find my lost bag. Your meticulous and warmhearted help will be greatly appreciated.<br />
<br />
For information about my lost thing, please contact me in the following ways.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #FF1493;">Mobile phone:</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">13901160626</span><br />

<br />
<br />
To construct and maintain roads is a public service administered by the government. However, where does the money come from? Somebody believe that the government should allocate money from national finance on the road.<br />
<br />
construction; but others think that the roads are constructed for people, so every tax-payer has the responsibility for constructing and maintaining the roads. It is so called ¡°What is taken from the people is used in the interests of the people.¡±<br />
<br />
To the first opinion, since government is the administrative organ, it has responsibility to do overall plan on those public services of city construction, including constructing the road. They think that the government<br />
should do plan and allocate every penny on all things concerning people's life. <br />
<br />
However in reality, the government cannot do all specific plans and money allocations on every detail concerning the society running. It only has the right of macro-adjustment and control. To be specific on the road construction, many people believe that based on the principle above, since the road is constructed for the convenience of people themselves, every tax-payer has duty to devote a little on the road construction, which is not only for the city overall plan, but also for their own use fundamentally. Once the constructions<br />
finish, the roads will be wider and longer, the facilities along the roads will be better in use, by then people could further improve their working efficiency, etc..<br />
<br />
As I know, the second opinion is more reasonable and feasible, because it has two advantages: 1. The government could reduce heavy burdens, simplify and make clear the usage of money; 2. Tax-payers are clear about the usage of money they turn over, thus improve the transparency. Therefore, it is a good measure for both sides to allocate money from the tax paid by people on the road construction.]]></description>

<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #0000CD;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Dear General Manager,</span></span><br />
<br />
As a staff of Sales Department, I'm very glad to see the rapid development of our hotel. With the coming of New Year, I am writing to you to pre I think more on the further improvement of our hotel¡ªto establish a website of our own to attract more clients.<br />
<br />
Firstly, with the development of Internet, more and more people are willing to go to the outside world through the information on Internet. Thus if we could establish our own website and introduce ourselves on it, more friends, especially foreign friends, could know our latest promotion at home whenever they want. Secondly, according to the statistics of World Hotel Association, 33% of clients made hotel reservation through the Internet last year. And the proportion will largely increase in year 2000. Thus if we could introduce reservation system on our homepage, clients could contact us and make reservation directly. Finally, hotel promotion on Internet could reduce our operation cost greatly.<br />
<br />
As someone says that Internet shorten the distance of the world, I believe that the one who could make use of Internet effectively today will be the winner tomorrow. We will get a lot and have a brilliant future.<br />
<br />
<br />
Yours sincerely,<br />

I am Sandy Lee, an undergraduate student of the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. At the beginning of this semester, I registered one of your courses, African Literature and Culture.<br />
<br />
It is a two-hour course held on every Thursday afternoon. Yesterday, I received a notice from my department that a major course, Computer Principle, would be changed to Thursday afternoon.<br />
<br />
This major course conspicuously influences my credits and it is every important to me. Unfortunately, I can not study your course this semester.<br />
<br />
Because of your reputation and my enthusiasm in literature, I hope I could study this course in next semester. I also heard that another course of yours, China Literature, is held every Friday afternoon.<br />
<br />
If the registration of this course hasn't closed yet, I will be so glad to participate in your class.<br />
<br />
Sorry to bother you, your help will be greatly appreciated.<br />
<br />
<br />
Sincerely yours,<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Manor Competition heads to its home circuit, Donington Park, next weekend for the 17th and 18th rounds of the 2007 Formula Renault UK season and hopes are high of a great team performance from the crack Nottinghamshire squad.<br />
 <br />
The New Ollerton outfit, which goes into the event on 8th/9th September on the back of a superb debut showing in the Formula Renault Northern European Cup at Germany’s Nurburgring last weekend, is looking forward to its return to Donington Park for what will undoubtedly be the biggest meeting of the year, supporting the World Series by Renault.<br />
 <br />
With over 100,000 enthusiasts expected to attend, the race weekend will be a fantastic spectacle and with Alexander Sims having claimed his maiden single-seater race victory at Donington’s National Circuit configuration in mid-July, both driver and team are bidding to repeat the result on the world-famous Grand Prix layout.<br />
 <br />
As Manor’s sole entry in the Formula Renault NEC last weekend, Sims made a superb debut by qualifying in fourth and fifth position for the two races. Although a broken steering rack forced a retirement in the opening encounter, the 19-year-old raced well to leave the Nurburgring with a top five result in race two.<br />
 <br />
“Nurburgring was a great weekend, we really enjoyed it and Alexander made some good progress”, reflected team boss Tony Shaw, “He’s gaining more confidence each time he sits in the car and is starting to become a real force which we always knew would happen with time and experience. He stands a great chance of podiums at Donington.”<br />
 <br />
Excellent performances aren’t the sole preserve of Peterborough racer Sims however, with Kris Loane and Alex Morgan having both made impressive strides during recent rounds. In particular, the last two race meetings at Snetterton and Brands Hatch saw both drivers begin to come of age in single-seaters.<br />
 <br />
At Donington next weekend, Loane and Morgan hope to build on their respective season’s best results – the Northern Irishman’s being fifth position during round 13 at Snetterton, which also earned him Driver of the Day status, and Welshman Morgan’s a top seven showing in the same race.  <br />
 <br />
Shaw added: “Everyone is happy, buoyant and working hard and we’ll certainly do our best to achieve some excellent results – hopefully we’ll hit the front. Considering Kris’ lack of experience he’s starting to show some much more experienced drivers the way which is great to see and his pace isn’t far away from the top three.<br />
 <br />
“Alex enjoyed a good run at Snetterton and at Brands he did very well, especially when taking into account the wet conditions in which he’s had some bad accidents in the past. To have such a good showing and to have gained such confidence is brilliant. All three drivers are aiming for a strong run at Donington, we’re looking forward to it.”<br />
 <br />
Manor Competition will return to the track this Wednesday, 5th September, for official testing at Donington Park Grand Prix Circuit with qualifying for the 17th and 18th rounds of the season scheduled to take place on Saturday, 8th September, at 13.15.<br />
 <br />
Both races are timetabled for Sunday, 9th September, with round 17 beginning the day’s action at 09.00 and round 18 expected to follow at 16.00.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Dealer Team Suzuki drivers James Wozencroft and Lorna Smith swept to victory at the Ulster International Rally over the weekend in their Swift Sport Group N2 cars.<br />
<br />
Wozencroft and co-driver Chris Ridge battled all rally with the MG of Matt Beebe, who suffered an engine failure on the penultimate stage, moving James up to 1st in class R2 and a top 10 placing of 8th overall in the British Rally Championship and 1st in class N2 in the Irish Tarmac Championship. This win came on the back of a mature drive in the Swift Super 1600 factory car at Rally Deutschland.<br />
<br />
Team mate Lorna Smith and co-driver Joanne Oakey entered the Ulster International Rally knowing that if they finished, they would be crowned Irish Tarmac Champions Class N2 with one round remaining in Cork during late September.<br />
<br />
All was going to plan until stage 11 (Mount Pleasant 1) when they misjudged a crest and in fifth gear flat out rolled the car losing 4 minutes in the process. They managed to get the car back to service at Armagh, where in 30 minutes the technical crew repaired the car and sent them back out.<br />
<br />
There were no further dramas as they brought their Swift Sport Group N2 car home 3rd in class R2 and 12th overall in the British Rally Chgampionship, and 2nd in class N2 in the Irish Tarmac Championship thereby securing the title they so richly deserve.<br />
<br />
Team Manager Ian Robinson commented: “This has been a great weekend for Dealer Team Suzuki and Suzuki Sport, having secured a major championship with the Swift Sport Group N2 car in its first year of competition. Both crews ran a near perfect rally, despite Lorna’s accident, which once again showed the strength of the car.<br />
<br />
“This result was a great team effort and I cannot thank enough the Technical crew who for the second time this year employed their experience and professional approach to ensure that Lorna’s car was repaired and back in the rally without receiving any penalty points.”<br />
<br />
Dealer Team Suzuki now travels to Cork for the last round of the Irish Tarmac Championship with the two cars in 1st and 2nd position in class N2 and still with the opportunity of winning the British Rally Championship class R2 with the Trackrod and Wales Rally GB rounds remaining.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[South coast rally driver Steve Hendy is set to compete in one of the classic European rallies this weekend when he tackles the Flanders Rally in the Hendy Group Ford Focus WRC.<br />
<br />
 <br />
<br />
The Hankook-supported driver heads to Roeslare for two action packed days of rallying, pitting his skills against the likes Patrick Snijers and Freddy Loix.<br />
<br />
 <br />
<br />
“More than 100 cars are set to take part in the event from legends such as Snijers and Loix through to a strong British contingent and plenty of local drivers,’’ said Steve.  “The tricky stages, the tough competition and the sheer length of the rally with 24 high speed tests are set to make for a challenging weekend.’’<br />
<br />
 <br />
<br />
Hendy and co-driver Aled Davies have the opportunity to recce the stages before action gets underway to fine tune the pacenotes they will use on the event – something which Steve said would be absolutely vital for the pair to succeed.<br />
<br />
 <br />
<br />
“The closed roads make for some very tricky driving and the recce is a hugely important part of the preparation work for the rally.’’<br />
<br />
 <br />
<br />
He said that while the technicians from Hendy Group will be working hard on the correct set up of the car for the asphalt stages it will be the recce which will determine the Hankook tyres needed for the surface and weather conditions and the best notes for Aled to call to ensure the fastest times possible on the stages.<br />
<br />
 <br />
<br />
Action gets underway at 8am on Saturday September 8 with the finish on Sunday afternoon.]]></description>
