- 1.老师教学方法 If a teacher is honest, reliable and responsible and hence respected by all the people, the students will follow his or her suit and develop into such a person.
如果老师诚实，可靠，负责任，受到大家的尊重，学生就会以老师为榜样，也成为这样的人。
Based on the analysis above, we may safely conclude that teachers should possess teachers' ethics（师德）, respecting and caring for their students so that students can learn to respect others.
基于以上分析,我们可以得出结论:教师应具备师德，尊重和爱护他们的学生，这样学生才能学会尊重他人。 - 2、校园霸凌 But bullying（欺凌弱小） can have a wide spectrum of effects on a student, making him or her feel angry, depressed, stressed and even want to commit suicide（自杀）. Additionally, the school bullying can develop into different social disorders.
但是欺凌行为会对学生产生广泛的影响，使其感到愤怒、抑郁、有压迫感，甚至想要自杀。此外，校园欺凌可能发展成为不同的社会混乱现象。
Therefore, it is imperative for the relevant authorities to implement school regulations and laws to prevent and punish the school bullying.
因此，相关部门要实施学校规章制度和法律以对校园欺凌行为进行预防和惩罚，这是势在必行的。 - 3、对待知识的态度 As a matter of fact, with each passing day, modern society urges us to increase our studies and to remain open to new knowledge at all times. Only in this way can we maintain pace with（跟上…步伐） rapid social development. Otherwise, sooner or later, we will be weeded out（淘汰）.
事实上，现代社会每天都在敦促我们不断充电，随时准备学习新知识。只有这样，我们才能跟上社会快速发展的步伐。否则迟早会被淘汰。
All in all, we should always bear in mind（牢记） that one is never too “full” to learn.
总之，我们应时刻牢记：知识用不满，学习不能歇。 - 4、海外游学 With the upgrading education consumption, overseas study tour services have been heating up but brought about（引起） some pressing（紧迫的） issues as well.
随着教育消费不断升级，海外游学持续升温，却同时带来了一些亟待解决的问题。
For one thing, agencies make use of parents' anxiety about their children's education and boast the value of overseas study tour, but during the services they cut corners（马虎从事） by converting（使转变） study tours into nothing more than sightseeing.
一方面，游学机构利用家长对孩子教育的焦虑，过分鼓吹海外游学的价值，却在游学过程中偷工减料,把游学变成单纯的游玩。 - 5、青年教学 And after getting admitted to（被录取） universities, those students without self-discipline（自制力） fail to do their duties conscientiously（认真地） and waste their precious time with nothing accomplished.
而进人大学后，那些缺乏自制力的大学生没有认真做自己应该做的事情，而是在碌碌无为中浪费了大好光阴。
The significance of education in cultivating talents is self-evident（不证自明的）, and the quality of education is vital to a nation's future. Secondary school students' burden had better be effectively alleviated（减轻） and score should not be regarded as the only measure.
教育对于培养人才的重要性不言面喻，其质量的好坏也直接关乎国家的未来。在中学，应有效地为中学生减负,不再以分数为唯一的衡量标准。
Today, many celebrities are accumulating（积累） great wealth by hyping（大肆炒作） themselves up through vulgar（粗俗的） means. This severely distorts（扭曲，使变形） teenagers' values, inducing them to believe that fame, fortune and quick success matter most while diligence, tolerance and entrepreneurship are outdated.
当前，许多明星在靠租俗的方式炒作自己从而借机巨大财富。这严重地扭曲了青少年的价值观，鼓动着他们认为名声、财富、快速成功最为重要，而勤奋、忍耐、实干精神却已经过时。
Without solid skills and concrete abilities, a celebrity（名人） will inevitably（不可避免地） become a has- been（过去时、已经）.
没有坚实的技术和具体的能力，明星最终也难免会过气。
Therefore, it's essential that educators and parents jointly（共同地） guide our youngsters to cultivate a critical mind and hence foster noble ideals（培养高尚理想）.
所以，当务之急是，教育者和父母们应共同引导年轻人形成批判性思维，从而培养出高尚的理想。 - 6、人文教育与专业教育 The essence（本质） of humanity education lies in the cultivation of a human being. It helps students to gain new insights into（洞察） things, treat others with kindness, and understand the meaning and value of life.
人文教育的本质是培养“人”。它帮助学生洞察人生、善待他人、理解人生的意义与价值。
The lack of humanities may well make students become utilitarian（功利主义的） and immoral（不道德的）, thereby resulting in severe social problems.
人文教育的缺失,极易使学生变得功利主义并道德失范，由此带来严重的社会问题。 - 7、采取行动实现就业 When looking for a job or pursuing other goals, young people tend to aim high, but not put their thoughts into action（好高骛远，没有付诸行动）.
在找工作或者追求其他目标时，年轻人往往好高骛远，而不将自己的想法付诸行动。
What’s worse, they are beginning to adopt a cynical attitude（愤世嫉俗的态度） towards life, complaining about unfairness brought upon them.
更糟糕的是，他们会因此产生愤世嫉俗的生活态度，抱怨生活对他们的种种不公。
The unwillingness to take effective measures for the dream may lead to permanent failure in one’s personal and even affect the development of a country.
不愿为实现梦想而采取有效行动不仅会导致自己人生的永远失败，甚至会影响整个国家的发展。

In the left picture, a young man on a unicycle（独轮车） representing professional education is about to topple over（不稳而倒下）. By contrast, the man in the right picture is steadily moving forward on a bicycle, whose two wheels stand for（代表） professional education and humanity education respectively. The two pictures vividly illustrate that receiving the professional education only, one can hardly advance, and that balancing both, one can progress smoothly.
The essence（本质） of humanity education lies in the cultivation of a human being. It helps students to gain new insights（洞察） into things, treat others with kindness, and understand the meaning and value of life. However, some universities overemphasize professional education while neglecting the humanities（人文社科）. Humanity courses are often offered as optional, and students even tend to skip them at will（随意）, thinking they are useless for skill improvement and job-hunting. The lack of humanities may well make students become utilitarian（功利主义的） and immoral（不道德的）, thereby resulting in severe social problems. The heartbreaking cases that a university student hurt a black bear in a zoo, and another one intentionally hurt his roommates are both bloody tragedies（血淋淋的悲剧）.
Therefore.universities should give due（应有的） attention to humanity education, so as to shape good personalities of students, as well as a harmonious society. Meanwhile, students are also expected to arm themselves with humanity knowledge to get a full-scale（全面的） development. Only then can both the society and individuals develop healthily.

左图中，一个年轻人骑着代表“专业教育”的独轮车差点摔倒。相比之下，右图中的年轻人骑着前后轮分别代表“专业教育”和“人文教育”的自行车稳步前行。两幅图生动地表明只接受专业教育的人很难取得进步,平衡二者，才能顺利前进。
人文教育的本质是培养“人”。它帮助学生洞察人生、善待他人、理解人生的意义与价值。然面，如今有些学校过分强调对学生的专业教育，忽视人文教育。人文课程被设置为了通选课，学生甚至随意逃掉这些课，认为他们对提升技能、找工作没有什么作用。人文教育的缺失，极易使学生变得功利主义并道德失范，由此带来严重的社会问题。大学生在动物园内伤害黑熊、大学生故意伤害室友等令人痛心的事件，都是血淋淋的悲剧。
因此，学校应该给予人文教育应有的重视，以此塑造学生良好的人格并建设一个和谐的社会。同时，学生也应该以人文知识武装自己以取得全面发展。唯有如此，社会和个人才能得到健康的发展。

one’s trip to a certain extent.
共享单车的出现极大地改变了人们的出现方式。它不仅提高了人们的出行效率，而且在一定程度上降低了出行成本。
Last but least, conception of bike-sharing makes it possible for us to lead a healthy and active lifestyle because it is an environment-friendly （环境友好型）means of transportation.

即使没有人看到，我们也能每次都做自己认为是正确的事情，就是向加强诚信迈出了一大步。- 3、信任危机 First and foremost, people will be deprived of（被剥夺） much since they become over-cautions and feel insecure all the time. Besides, a lack of trust is detrimental to personal relationships since “Trust is the glue of life. It’s the most essential ingredient in effective communication. It’s the foundation principle that holds all relationships.” Last but not least, people’s loss of trust in the government could intensify social contradictions（加剧社会矛盾）.
首先，人们时刻小心谨慎，没有安全，因此被剥夺了许多乐趣。此外，缺乏信任对人际关系有害，因为“信任是生活的粘合剂。它是有效沟通的最重要的因素。它是维系所有关系的基本原则。”最后应特别指出的是，人们对政府失去信任会加剧社会矛盾。
Therefore, it is high time that （正是......的时候）we called on all sides to deal with the trust crisis. For one thing, the government should make great efforts to promote a credibility system. For another, the mass media should also play a positive role in restoring mutual trust among people.
因此，现在汇聚各方力量应对信任危机正当其时。一方面，政府应当着力推荐诚信体系建设。另一方面，大众媒体也应该在恢复人与人之间的相互信任方面发挥积极作用。- 4、就医之专家号 People tend to believe that experts are more professional, that prestigious experts can always make faster and better diagnosis and treatment.
人们往往认为专家更加专业，觉得知名专家总是能给予更快、更好的诊断和治疗。
This, in my opinion, not only wastes people’s time, but also takes up the precious medical resources（占用宝贵医疗资源）.
在我看来，这种做法不仅浪费了人们的时间，还占用了宝贵的医疗资源。- 5、乱扔垃圾 Litter can contain objects that can cause physical injury（人体伤害） to people namely needles, blades（刀片） or broken glass. Furthermore, it can facilitate（促进） the spread of disease.
垃圾中可能含有对人体造成伤害的物体，如针、刀片或碎玻璃。此外，它还会促进疾病的传播。
Meanwhile，toxic（有毒的） chemicals and disease-causing microorganisms（微生物） in the trash may also contaminate（污染） water systems and spread water-borne diseases which can negatively affect the health of both animals and humans if unclean or untreated water is consumed.
同时，垃圾中的有毒化学物质和致病微生物也可能污染水繁统，并在水中传播疾病。如果饮用不干净或未经处理的水动物和人类的健康也会受到这些疾病的负面影响。 - 2、诚信 What's more, when we have integrity, we gain the trust of others. We're dependable（可靠的）, and we become role models for others to follow when we hold ourselves accountable for our actions.

In the picture above, in an unattended bookstore where there is no cashier（收银员） and no staff, a customer is paying for the book he has chosen of his own free will. Such a bookstore is basically based on the customers' integrity. This illustration reveals the importance of integrity in today's society.
Integrity means doing the right thing even when no one is around. There are many reasons why integrity is important in our lives. First, living a life of integrity means that we never have to spend time or energy questioning ourselves. When we listen to our hearts and do the right thing, life becomes simple. Our actions are open to others, and we don't have to worry about hiding anything. What's more, when we have integrity, we gain the trust of others. We're dependable（可靠的）, and we become role models for others to follow when we hold ourselves accountable for our actions.
In our lives, we are going to be tested at one point or another by our integrity and ethics. Every time we do what we think is the right thing even though no one else sees us do it, we have taken a big step toward strengthening（加强） our integrity.

上图中，在-个无人看管的书店里，没有收银员和其他工作人员，一个顾客自愿为自己选择的书付钱。这样过太上是以顾客的诚信为基础。这个例子说明了在当今社会诚信的重要性。
诚信意味着即使没有人在身边,也要做正确的事。诚信在我们生活中很重要的原因有很多。首先,正直地生活意味着我们永远远不必花时间和精力质疑自己。当我们听从内心的声音，做正确的事情生活就会变得简单。我们的行为是公开的，每个人都可以看到，我们不必担心隐藏任何东西。更重要的是，当我们诚信时，我们会获得别人的信任。我们是可靠的，当我们对自己的行为负责时，就会成为别人学习的榜样。
生活中我们都会在某个时刻受到诚信和道德的考验。即使没有人看到，我们也能每次都做自己认为是正确的事情，就是向加强诚信迈出了一大步。

近年来，随着平板电脑、智能手机等电子产品的普及，人们的阅读习惯发生了巨变。

Moreover, a research shows that readers are easily distracted（分心） when they are reading e-books. Readers would find it more difficult to concentrate especially when the device is equipped with（设备被……占用） other apps like game apps.
此外，还有研究表明，电子书很容易让读者分心，尤其是当阅读设备上还装有其他软件如游戏软件时，阅读者更加难以集中精力。 - 2、信息安全 Every year, thousands of people lose money due to（因为） telephone scams from a few bucks（美元） to their life’s savings（毕生积蓄）. Phone scammers devise（想出，图谋） many different types of detailed phone scams to establish trust or instill （灌输）fear or both.

Violent situations are all too common in everyday entertainment and there are far fewer non-violet programming choices. Therefore, parents should monitor（监控、关注） and be more attentive to their children.
暴力场景在日常娱乐中太常见了,而相比之下非暴力的节目选择要少得多。因此，父母应该对自己的孩子进行监督，更加关注他们。 - 4、垃圾邮件 Everyday people are bombarded with（被轰炸） junk emails offering fake pharmaceutical（药品） products, dodgy loans（不良贷款）, dubious（可疑的） products or get-rich-quick schemes.

Every year, thousands of people lose money due to（因为） telephone scams from a few bucks（美元） to their life’s savings（毕生积蓄）.

- 1、污染 Mobile phone usage in public places like hospitals can easily interfere（打扰） with the medical equipment, which can be harmful to the patient.
在医院等公共场所使用手机很容易干扰医疗设备，这对病人有害。
In my opinion, cell phones should be allowed in public places with some restrictions. What's more, in public places, quiet zones where phone use is banned should be set up.
在我看来,应该允许在公共场所使用手机，并设有一此限制。此外，在公共场所,应该建立禁止使用手机的安静区域。 - 2、城市病 The unprecedented （空前的）expansion of cities undoubtedly leads to the excessive concentration of population, which in turn brings about
a series of problems, such as environmental pollution, traffic jam, increased crimes and high housing prices.
城市空前的扩张无疑造成人口的过度集中,这反过来又会产生一系列问题，如环境污染、交通堵塞、犯罪增多及高房价等。
Therefore, the focus of urban authorities（市政部门） should be on consolidation and upgrading of urban infrastructure. Great attention should also be paid to develop a mechanism to monitor the carrying capacity（承受能力） of both resources and environment of cities to achieve urban layout optimization（布局优化）.
因此，市政部门应关注城市基础设施的整合和升级。还应该重点建立一种机制来监督城市资源和环境的承受能力，以达到城市布局最优化。 - 3、垃圾分类 Worse still, in many places, waste is disposed of（被处理） by burning, and burning the recyclable waste（可回收垃圾） like plastics will give off toxic（有毒的） smoke which pollutes the air.

In the picture, three garbage containers are classified as kitchen garbage container, recyclable garbage container and other garbage container. However, they are stuffed with（被充斥着） the same kinds of garbage. It seems that their function of sorting garbage has failed.
The picture demonstrates that many people haven’t formed the habit of sorting waste now in China, even though sorted garbage containers are available in every neighborhood in the city. Without thinking whether the garbage is recyclable or not, many people just throw their domestic garbage — kitchen refuse（厨房垃圾）, plastics, paper, china and glass, etc. — all into one public container.
This,I think, will reduce the value of stuff that can be recycled or reused, such as plastics and paper. Worse still, in many places, waste is disposed of（被处理） by burning, and burning the recyclable waste（可回收垃圾） like plastics will give off toxic（有毒的） smoke which pollutes the air. In this sense, throwing the trash unsorted into the same garbage container should not be advocated, no matter whether it is from the perspective of economic or environmental protection. People should form the habit of garbage sorting.

图画中，三个垃圾桶被分为厨余垃圾桶、可回收垃圾桶和其他垃圾桶。然而.它们装的垃圾都一样。看起来.它们的垃圾分类功能并没有实现。
这幅画显示出，现如今的很多中国人都还没有养成垃圾分类的习惯，尽管城市里每个居民区 都有分类垃圾桶。很多人想都不想垃圾是否可回收，就一股脑地把家里产生的垃圾——厨房垃圾、塑料、废纸、瓷器和玻璃等——全都仍进一个公共垃圾桶里。
在我看来，这种做法会降低一些可回收或可再利用的物品的价值,比如塑料制品和废纸。更糟糕的是，在很多地方，垃圾是通过焚烧来处理的，而焚烧诸如塑料之类的可回收垃圾，会释放有毒气体,污染空气。因此，无论是从经济角度还是环保角度，都不提倡垃圾不分类就扔掉的行为。人们应该养成垃圾分类的习惯。

在大城市，尽管我们的生活压力可能更大，但城市相对包容的氛围以及丰富的资源也给予了我们巨大的上升空间。
In summary, facing such a dilemma（进退两难）, we must make trade-offs（权衡） and accept what we choose, No matter where we are, we will eventually make significant accomplishments as long as we’re willing to buckle down（埋头苦干） and approach（处理） our work with tremendous efforts.

As is shown in the picture, a sailor is steering a ship in a calm sea, which definitely would not rouse his faculties and fortitude. That is why the caption reads “A smooth sea never makes a skilled sailor.” This drawing, in a straightforward way, warns us to be alert to our comfort zones and teaches us that adversity leads to competence.
There is no denying the fact that it is rough times that make us grow faster. Unfortunately, many parents, particularly those in China, do not seem to realize this. They exert every effort （竭尽全力）to arrange everything for their children, depriving them of the opportunities to undergo frustration and ordeals（经历挫折和磨难） and learn from them so that their grownup children cannot deal with the stress from the competitive world and even become the so-called “NEETs”,or parent-dependents. In addition, in today’s society there are lots of shut-ins, i.e.teenagers or young adults who shut themselves indoors all the time. For them, the home is their comfort zone, and the longer they stay there, the less likely they would be able to deal with life’s storms.
Just as a saying goes, greenhouse flowers cannot survive the unpleasant weather outdoors. We should not be content with（满足于） a life of ease. Instead we should be brave enough to take on new challenges to bring out the best in us.

如图所示，一名水手驾着一只船在平静的大海上航行。这当然不会激发出他的能力和坚忍的意志。这就是为什么图片说明上写着“平静的水面练就不出强悍的水手”。这幅图画以直白的方式警告我们要对舒适区保持警惕，教育我们逆境出能力。
不可否认，逆境会使我们成长得更快。不幸的是，许多父母，尤其是中国的父母，似乎没有意识到这一点。他们竭尽全力地为孩子安排好一切，剥夺了他们经历坎坷与磨难并从中学习的机会，以至于孩子长大成人后不能处理来自充满竞争的世界的压力，甚至成为所谓的“啃老族”（经济上依靠父母的人）。另外，当今社会有许多宅男宅女，他们是一群把自己关在家里的青少年或者年轻人。对他们来说，家就是他们的舒适区，在那里待的时间越长，越不可能经受住生活中的暴风雨。
常言道，温室的花朵经不起外面的风雨。我们不应满足于过一种安逸的生活，而应该勇于接受新的挑战，以激发我们最大的潜能。
