- Efficiency or Accuracy The statement asks what the key to the success is, the accuracy or the efficiency. In terms of this question, I believe we should not keep working rapidly only at the expense of the accuracy, or vice-verse. The key to the success is to have both of them, the efficiency and the exactness. In modern society, these two elements are both essential to the success, no matter for governments, companies or universities. Policies conducted by governments usually relate to the wellbeing of thousands of people. It probably results in a terrible disaster even though officials only make a small mistake. For instance, in 2003, Beijing has been facing the outbreak of the SARS, a horrible infectious disease. Firstly, the Beijing government only made a simple evaluation and experts held that the SARS was just like a cold. With this result, officials did not take any measures and thus, missed the best opportunity to cure the disease. When they reconsider to check the robustness of the research consequences, everything is too late since the virus has begun to widespread. Therefore, accuracy is quite important for a government. Of course, the efficiency should not be ignored either. Some terrible diseases such as SARS must be controlled within several days. If the government cannot response as soon as possible, the situation would worsen. Based on this real example, we can conclude that officials in government must work quickly and precisely. The rule for a businessman to get the peak is also to work efficiently and exactly at the same time. The classical example comes from Jack Ma, who is the leader of the Alibaba, the most successful electronic business company. Jack is famous for his readiness and exactness. He can make the accurate business decision within several hours. Last summer, Alibaba became the first company to explore the Internet bank and achieved the huge profit. When asked about the secret of the success, Jack responded that he must decide this investment quickly, or the share would be taken by the competitors; he also need to investigate the market and consumers exactly to know whether or not the Internet bank could be accepted by common people. A tiny mistake may result in the company burdening enormous losses. Therefore, for a superb businessman, one must give the same weights to the efficiency and the exactness. Overall, if one have a strong desire to get some achievements, he must work quickly and precisely simultaneously.March 17, 201711
- Old friends or new friends Some people hold the view that keeping old friends are more important than making new friends because we are familiar to the former. However, I cannot agree with this statement. For one thing, one can broaden his horizon through knowing new friends. Also, if people move to different places, current friends can provide them with necessary aids. Firstly, we can broaden our horizon and make ourselves become increasingly inclusive by making new friends, especially those who have different backgrounds from ours. For instance, I am interested in knowing new friends no matter where they are from. Through talking with them, I can know a lot of things that I never hear before. Indian friends tell me that there are diverse religions and beliefs in their country; Japanese let me know that married women in their countries do not need to work. All of these traditions and cultures are totally different from those in my country, China. With my horizon widening, I can accept any discrepancies peacefully and become more inclusive. It is this characteristic that allows me to adapt to various environments and to work harmoniously with different types of people. On the contrary, my sister is reluctant to contact new friends. Most of her friends and she share common ideas. Because of that, her life is such boring and tedious as she cannot receive fresh matters. As time passes, her mind becomes more and more narrow so that she cannot get along well with anyone other than her intimate friends. In addition, if we move to a new place for studying or working, we must know new friends, who will aid us to make our life more convenient. I once studied overseas and was not familiar to my new circumstance. I did even not know how to rent an apartment or which is the best place to shop. Thanks to my new friend, Tom, who is a local resident, can I solve all of problems. He provided me with valuable information about the average house price and the location of suitable market. Moreover, he also took me to some scenery spots and introduced his friends to me in case I am alone. Without his help, I cannot adapt to the new circumstance such rapidly. Overall, knowing new friends will benefit us at least from two aspects. For one thing, we could widen our horizon. In addition, new friends will facilitate our life in a strange surrounding.October 6, 201600
- Celebrities are important models for people I believe that celebrities are important models for people. Take my favorite singer, Jay Zhou, as an example. Because of him, I begin to realize that dream is the first and most important step to the success. Jay is not a guy who is born with talent. However, he has dream to become the top singer. When he proposes that the sales of his album will reach 2 million, everyone around him thinks he is crazy. But as a result of his hard work, the dream comes true only after several years. Jay's experience let me know that we should have the dream to motive and encourage ourselves.October 5, 201630
- college students should choose their major based on talent Some people propose that students should choose majors based on their talent while others indicate that the availability of the job market may be more important. In my opinion, I think the talent should be the main factor for students to decide their majors. For one thing, if students have talent in some areas, they are more likely to be successful. Examples from famous people can illustrate this point. Nash, one of the prominent mathematicians, acquired the Nobel Prize in 1994 because of his significant contribution to the game theory. Nash had showed his talent in math when he was a little child. He even can solve some problems puzzling his teachers. The other example comes from Edison, who was an inventor promoting the development of our society. His invention, telephone and bulb, had improved the life quality of people all over the world. It is his genus that allows him to possess accurate inspection that ordinary people do not own. Therefore, Edison could always have marvelous ideas and make it come true. Overall, only choosing majors that students are really interested in, can they have the opportunity to get the peak of their career. Meanwhile, when students regard as their career the major they are skilled in, they will easier get confidences. If entering into an area where you have weakness, you will always fail. As time passes, you may lose your self-confidence and afraid to do anything. It will block the development of your career. Some people may propose that the demand of the major in job market, is also an important factor that should be taken into consideration. Students majoring in philosophy and history are difficult to find a job. I admit that this reason cannot be ignored, but it should follow students' talent. If students indeed have talent in some cold areas, they can also create the glory. My sister, whose major is history, has become the youngest professor in Peking University. She has genius in history since she was child as she can remember over 100 names of the kings. Thus, the reason why some students cannot find a job is probably that they choose an unsuitable major. Overall, I think that students should choose the sphere that they are talent in, because it will bring them the success, the confidence and the pleasure.October 4, 201640
