11、 emotion and pride, as well as the moral behavior in local people.

12、-effects to a city.First, the environmental impacts, including the increasing exhaust smoke of cars, more pressure on water resources, huge amount of wasted leaflets and other materials used for public activities, are most probably neglected.

13、e cut. Near the construction site, the tiny dust may float in the air for a long time. Reduction of farmland may be caused by the need of setting up new sports centre or accommodation facilities.

36、 he had lost his left arm in a car accident.The boy began lessons with an old Japanese judo teacher.

Then the boy got up the courage to ask what was really on his mind. Teacher, how did I win the tournament with

41、 only one move?The teacher answered. First, youve almost mastered one of the most difficult throws in all ofFor centuries people dreamed of going into spaceThis dream began to seem possible when high-flying rockets were built in the early 1900s.In 1903 a Russian teacher named Konstantin Tsiolkovsky

These can be encouraging words and words of determin ation.A person who believe

49、s in himself will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails. In my opinion , the quality of determination to succeed is an important one to have. Therefore, I believe that we should never give up.One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anything. It i

50、s not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt at something new, so we should not feel disappointed and should try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail , we will not be able to develop new skills and grow.Another reason we should never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes s

51、o that we can not make the same ones. If we do not try again, the lesson we have learned is wasted.Finally, we should never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge ourselves, we w

52、ill begin to doubt our abilities.In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end or not , we will learn something , and what we learn will help us to become better and more confident. Furthermore, if we give up , we have no chance of attaini

53、ng our goals any more , but if we keep making great efforts, there is always a chance that we will succeed one day.Topic: Never Give UpAlthough many Chinese students say that their knowledge of English grammar is good, most would admit that their spoken English is poor. Whenever I speak to Chinese s

54、tudents they always say, My spoken English s poor. However, their spoken English doesnt have to remain poor. I would like to suggest that there may be some reasons for their problems with spoken English. First, they fail to find suitable words to express themselves due to a limited vocabulary. Obvio

55、usly the better answer is to expand their vocabulary. However, you can speak with a limited vocabulary, if your attitude is positive. Others will follow you as long as you use the words that you know. Second, they are afraid of making mistakes. Sometimes they make mistakes when they are speaking, be

56、cause they are shy and nervous. Yet students should remember that their goal should be fluency not accuracy. Your aim in writing is to be accurate following the rules for grammar and using tenses to get your message across. But to talk to someone in English, as quickly and well as you can, even thou

57、gh sometimes you may use a wrong word of tense, but it doesnt matter because the person you are speaking to will understand you.The third reason is that not enough attention is paid to listening. you have one mouth but two ears! All that hearing is necessary for you to start speaking.Fourth, most Ch

58、inese students are reactive rather than pro-active language learners. Instead of actively seeking out opportunities to improve their spoken English, they passively wait for speaking opportunities to come to them and wonder why their English always remains poor. If you have this pro-active outlook, t

59、hen, you will see English opportunities wherever you go.If you dont use your English beyond the classroom you will forget that English you know. Remember USE IT FOR IT! You can learn how to speak English better by speaking English more.How to be a good listenerEveryone loves a good listener. But there are more reasons to develop the skill of listening than
