Some people believe that greed and selfishness has become the basis of modern society. We should return to the old traditions of family and community, and then we will have a better life. To what extent do you agree or disagree with the above opinion?
In this fast-paced world, many values are undergoing major changes. While people traditionally prioritize(区分优先次序) caring, sharing and generosity in life and work, modern people seem to be more self-absorbed and self-concerned.
Modern people act selfishly to survive the harsh competition of life. They say that it is a jungle out there. To survive, you have to fight with whatever means that come handy. Obviously greedy and selfishness go perfectly well with such ideas. In a company, employees do everything they can to get better pay and higher position, even at the cost of colleagues. We are in any way advocating any selfish conduct. It is just that people are pressured to act in a certain way due to outside influences.
In spite of common practice, it is hard to conclude that modern society is built on greed and selfishness, both of which are not newly invented vocabulary. In ancient times people also did greedy and selfish things though such behaviors were more condemned(谴责) then. But we cannot ignore the fact that people in the past lived a relatively more isolated life and faced less pressure compared with their modern twins.
Are we happier to share with others and be generous to them? There is no fixed answer either. Some people take great pleasure helping and giving to others while others feel happy doing the opposite. But I personally think that people should not be too selfish. Caring for others can actually encourage the development of a mutually beneficial relationship.
In conclusion, modern people appear to be more self-centered than those in the past due to strong outside pressure. However, we should encourage people to know the importance of being caring and generous and to build a mutually beneficial relationship with others.

It’s such a common event that you probably never asked yourself why you sleep. ___1____ In fact, for sleep researchers, it’s one of the biggest unanswered questions in the field.
Stop and think about it for a second. Why should we sleep? ____2_____ But we sleep every night, even when we have had plenty of rest. There are,no doubt,several different answers to this question, but let’s just consider one general purpose of sleep: ____3_____ Human beings are creatures that are normally active during daylight hours, when our senses function most effectively. ____4_____ We can’t see objects well, our color vision is entirely lost, and we don’t have the smelling or hearing sharpness of other animals. So it actually does make sense to have us stay where we are during the dangerous period when night-waking animals are walking here and there. And one sure way to make sure we don’t fall down everywhere and get lost or eaten is to have us not move for seven or eight hours, rising again only when the light is back and our survival chances are better.
It’s not the only reason we sleep. ____5____Perhaps even the most important one.
A.Is it because we get tired? |
B.Should that put human beings in a terrible situation? |
C.But from a scientific point of view, this is far from anordinarymatter. |
D.But in terms of evolution, it may have been one of the first reasons. |
F. Sleep as a survival approach.
G. At night, humans do rather poorly.
In the contrary, some other students think that the old buildings may hold back the development of economy and the process of modernization. It may affect the beauty of the city.
As far I’m concerned, I approve of(赞成) the former opinion. But if a building is worth of little, it may be proper to demolish(摧毁) it and make better use of that area. We should just weight the advantages and disadvantages.
What is happiness? 小题1: people have different ideas. Some people are rich; they think they are happy. 小题2: people have many friends, so they feel 小题3: . Still others are happy because their lives are meaningful. Happiness attracts everyone. For children, happiness often suggests eating something good or 小题4: with toys. 小题5: a stamp collector, stamps bring more delight than meals. And for a scientist, a discovery or an invention rather than 小题6: else gives him greatest satisfaction. As everything exists only because of its opposite, happiness exists only when 小题7: exists. Just as a person who does not know failure never knows success, a person, who has not experienced suffering or sadness never knows 小题8: happiness means. Cheer up and be happy. Happiness is not far from you. It’s just around you. Try to grasp it and enjoy it.
The World Bank, the United Nations and the London School Of Hygiene and Tropica1 Medicine did a study to urge hand-washing around the world. They found that one million lives could be saved each year if people washed their hands with soap often. They said that programs to increase hand-washing with soap could be among the most effective ways to reduce infectious disease.
Doctors say, many diseases can be prevented from spreading by hand-washing. These include pinworms (寄生虫), influenza (流行性感冒), the common cold, hepatitis (肝炎) A, meningitis (脑膜炎) and infectious diarrhea (腹泻).
Hand-washing destroys germs from other people, animals or objects a person has touched. When people get bacteria on their hands, they can infect themselves by touching their eyes, nose or mouth. Then these people can infect other people.
The experts say the easiest way to catch a cold is to touch your nose or eyes after someone nearby has sneezed or coughed. Another way to become sick is to eat food prepared by someone whose hands were not clean.
The experts say that hand-washing is especially important before and after preparing food, before eating and after using the toilet. People should wash their hands after handling animals or animal waste, and after cleaning a baby. The experts say it is also a good idea to wash your hands after handling money and after sneezing or coughing. And it is important to wash your hands often when someone in your home is sick. The experts say the most effective way to wash your hands is to rub them together while using soap and warm water.They say you do not have to use special antibacterial soap. Be sure to rub all areas of the hands for about ten to fifteen seconds. The rubbing action helps remove germs. Then rinse (冲洗) the hands with water and dry them.
