The life quality of older people Some people think that quality of older people's life nowadays is worse than before. To what extent do you agree or disagree? The society is developing, our lifes have been changed a lot compared with several years ago, such as housing condition, public service, medical care and so on. But, some people hold an opinion that the quality of living conditions for elderly people are getting worse than before. I disapproval this point of view for the following reasons. In China, we experienced a significant high speed development of economy in recent decades. This improvement brings many dramatic impacts for our basic necessities of life, including better food, clothing, shelter and transportation. All those changes in different fields are beneficial to older people. For instance, their diet nutrition is reasonable and healthy than before, according to some researchs, our average lifespan is also increased. We can easily buy variety of food in supermarket without any restriction. In contrast, in our old days, people have to get food via tickets which is due to a principle “to each according to his needs”, they could not gain extra things not only food. The government investments build high quality health-care services for elderly people. It’s easily observed that more and more hospitals are built in our cities, towns and villages. Especially many neighborhoods, it provides free medical care for retired people. Furthermore, our medical condition has been improved a lot, the new technologies are able to cure those diseases easily, and the medical support is stronger than many years ago. In consequence, elderly people don’t need to worry about some normal diseases anymore. In conclusion, the improvements of life conditions bring many benefits to vulnerable older people, the would get more help form government and others.

History in school History serves as a mirror/ history is like a mirror, it can show what our ancestors did in the past, and what their mistakes and successes were. Then we learn from these events and from people’s actions. When we have a similar situation, we just need to look back and find a better way to solve the problems by learning from the past and not making the same mistakes as our ancestors. From this view, I support that children should learn history in school, it is as essential as other practical subjects. On one hand, history contains our cultural identity and memories from the past. A person can’t live without knowing his identity, needless to say a nation. If a man forgets his address, forgets his achievements in work or personal life, and doesn’t remember any wrong things he did, then he won’t know what he can do in the future and how influential he was, and worse he can’t even go back to his own house. Therefore, learning a country’s historical events and famous respectable people will help children understand their own culture and it will also set a model for them. On the other hand, every subject is important in different circumstances. it depends on who is learning it and what his goal is. If a kid is interested in painting, then painting is important to him. But if he is determined to become a doctor then history is not quite important to him. So from this point, if a subject is more relevant to life it is a better element for everyone but not for a specific individual. Especially, kids are not quite sure about their future and interest. Teenagers are usually not stable as they are in their adolescence stage. What educators can do is just provide them good choices which they can choose from. History’s value is not so obvious at present and it cannot cause an effect instantly we can only see the effect in the long run. In spite of this, it is still a fundamental subject in school, and it gives the younger generation long term influence in their life. It not only help them not to make the same mistakes as their ancestors, but it also gives them different point of views about life and society for them to know more about possibilities and to predict what’s coming. It is unquestionable that practical subjects are important such as mathematics, literature and so on. They are all essential subjects in school, but children should still study history to improve their comprehensive ability in their long time education period of school.

教育4 history PK some subjects more relevant to life Some people think all children learn history in school is important; some others think learning subjects more relevant to life is important. Discuss both views and give your opinion. ................................................................................................................ History just likes a mirror, it can shows what our ancestors did in the past, what were their mistakes and successes, then we can learn from these events and people’s actions. when we have a similar situation, just look back and find a better way to solve the problems, not make the same mistakes as our ancestors. from this view I sport children should learn history in school, it is a essential subject same as other practical subjects. On one hand, history is memory of humans. A person can’t live without memory, needless to say a nation. If a man forget his home’s location, forget his achievements in work or personal life, and doesn’t remember any wrong things he did, then he won’t know what he can do in the future and how big power he has, even can’t go back his house. Therefor, children are learning their country’s historical events and famous people were respected as some thing, it will help kids understand his country’s culture and set a model. On the other hand, every subjects are important in different circumstances, it’s depends on who are learning it, what is his goal, if a kid is interested in painting, then painting is important to him. But if he was determined to become a doctor then history is not quiet important to him. so form this point, if a subject is more relevant to life it is a better element for the entireness but not for individual. Especially a kid is not quite sure about his future and interest. Teenagers are usually not stable as they all in adolescence. what educators can do just give kids best choose which they think. History’s value is not so obvious and might couldn’t get effect instantly, but it is still a fundamental subject in school, and give younger generation long time influence in their life, not only help them don’t make a same mistake as their ancestors, but also give people different views to observe life and society, to know more possibilities and to predict what’s coming if possible. Unquestionable, practical subjects are important such as mathematics, it is a elementary subject in school, but children should improve their comprehensive ability in their long time education period of school.

Family and media which one is a bigger influence Question: A family has a great influence on children's development, but others believe that the media is a bigger influence. Discuss both views and give your opinion. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When we came to this world and in the face of our parents, the first environment we touched with was our family. So it is surely has major influence on the development of children's life for a long time. especially kids are good at imitating the behavior of their parents whatever positive sides or negative sides. Nevertheless, the social media becomes more and more impactive in these days. This trend depends on high developing technology, nowadays teenagers can easy in touch with internet by variety of different kind of equipments, such as computer, laptop, smart phone and so on, and also including television, they can watch abundant TV programs easily. Majority of younger generation are crazy about playing online social applications and watching Korean and American dramas. According to a research, engaging in various forms of social media is a routine activity which has benefit to children and adolescents by enhancing communication, social connection, and even technical skills. Social media websites such as Sina weibo and Wechat offer multiple daily opportunities for connecting with their friends, classmates even strangers who are sharing interests. It is a remarkable changes in this world. On the other hand, social media also brings drawbacks to pupils. This phenomenon has affected mostly teenagers since they are losing their social ability and even includes they don’t know how to interact face to face. Secondly, for convenience, they prefer to do their homework by researching on the internet instead of practical action by their hands or go to library reading books. They just copy paste the answers or other’s viewpoints from any websites as less using their brain to think deeply. Family members maybe can set a good example for their children but it obvious not enough, it is very hard to control kids keeping far away from internet these days. We can see technology almost everywhere, internet is also totally a part of our lives. In addition, parents lack of basic understanding about their kids’ online lives, some of them even have gap between their kids. Therefor, I agree with media is play a greater influence.

International news It is believed that secondary school children should study international news as one of their school subjects. Others think that this is a waste of valuable school time. Discuss both views and give your opinions. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- International news is a good way to know what happened or is happing in this world, which is a kind of eyes of people these days, because all most everyone and anywhere we can easy visit internet and communicate with others.But if educators or government make it become a subject, personally speaking, I don’t think it is a good idea. The first rough problem is what kind of news children should study or know? how we define it? If educational expert can’t give a good answer and do a good action, then kids might be go to imitate since they watched or read bad news which has negative perspective, such as violence, eroticism and some extreme behavior reports. on the other hand, international event has its own culture element, if people don’t know other country’s facts and their traditional culture then they can’t empathize with them, they might wouldn’t understand what happened, and what were influence brought by those events. for example, if we told children what happened in the school attract of Pakistan by Taliban terrorist, perhaps it will seed fear and hatred in student’s mind. People are using different action to face this situation, there are not absolutely correct or wrong, but not every pupil can make accurate judgment. From these point of view, I’m more inclined to don’t let it be a module of secondary school. I’m sure news are valuable but teacher should guide young generation to get their own mature world outlook and values instead of pushing someone’s worldview and values to them, if student have to study international news as a subject in rather than initiative to access news then it is kind of passive learning.

修改：Painting 改版： IELTS writing part2: Some people think painting and drawing are important as other subjects, and they should be compulsory in high school education. To what extent do you agree or disagree? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Children's education is a very important thing in this society, teaching them language, literature, physics, chemistry and so on is not enough, we should also cultivate other interests, such as drawing, music and so on. In my case drawing is more important, I have been learning this for many years, so from my experience, this subject has benefited me a lot. I enjoy every moment when I am immersed in drawing. Firstly, art bring beauty in people’s daily lives, when we draw something we are observe too, so it can help children find and comprehend details carefully and it also gives them new views. Secondly, painting is a kind of artwork. Children usually don't know this world too much because they are pure however their eyes can see something adults can't see. Their imagination is wide and through their pen, they can tell others about their true feelings which are hard to speak by words. Sometimes it is said that drawing is another way to explain people's mind in an indirect way, it's seems like a kind of language. The last advantage I’d like to tell you is that painting helps children to express their mind and in turn it helps them to realize their potentials and hidden talents. Lastly, painting teaches a person to concentrate on what they are doing. To sum up, drawing is essential as other subjects. It is a wonderful way to show young generation’s colourful and fancy insightful world. We should encourage educators to make it compulsory in schools or some academies. I extremely agree with this perspective.
