Recently, a
software named
This software is to
offer paid service for students who need a
substitute for attending class. Each class costs
20 RMB to 50
RMB,
but
making notes
should
pay
extra. Both parties
trade on-line. It's
estimated that almost
2000
students have
registered,
Guangzhou Daily
reports.
The practice of hiring a
substitute for attending class is not new, while
the emerging of the related software
assistant
obviously
a
novelty.
The
reporter
from
the
paper
installed
the
software
and
registered.
When
logging
on, you can see
categories of information for your registered
university, subject, class time, location and
repay ways. The
subscribers
can
substitute
or
can
be substitutes
themselves
to
get some
earnings,
or
they
can
post
information themselves too.
In
the
column
of
information
there's
one
option
named
that states
you can pay for
meals
or
movies in
return. In
addition, you can pay money too. As a matter of
fact, most users prefer paying money for services.
The price rages
from
20
RMB to
50
RMB.
The
payment depends
on

After

According
to Pu
Wei
(alias),
the
software's
developer,
universities
in
and
around Guangzhou has
been
over
3000.
In
Guangzhou,
there
have
been 2000
subscribers.
That makes
Guangzhou rank
the
7th.
biggest
subscriber
among
all
subscribers in China.
The
software
background
data
show,
most
subscribers
are
from Guangdong
University
of
Technology
(396
people),
then South
China
Agricultural
University
(345),
the
third Guangdong
University
of
Foreign
Studies
(268),
the
fourth
Zhongkai Agricultural Engineering
Institute (214), the fifth Jinan University (202)
and and the sixth South China Normal
University (176).
Pu
Wei
says,
most
students
play
truant
on
courses
like PE,
Higher
Mathematics,
College English
and
so
on.
Business
demand of these subjects is the
biggest. He also says, there are 1500 subscribers
registered and every day, 8000 subscribers
are
active
viewers.
He initially
designs this software
not to
encourage
students
to
skip
class,
but
for
students
to
swap classes
that
they
don't
like
out
for
classes
they
like.
This way,
they
can
make
full
use
of
time. Meanwhile,
it's
a
warning for the teachers
that they should design their course more
efficiently.
The
reporter
also
paid
a
visit
recently
to
some
universities
in
Guangzhou,
such
as
Zhongshan
University,
South
China
Normal
University
and Jinan
University.
15
students
from
the
above
universities
admit
that
they
do
study
boring
and unintelligible courses. 9 out of
them admit their willingness to pay for their
truancy.
Xiao
Qin,
a
third
year student
from
Zhongshan
University
says
she's
majoring
in Science
and
Engineering.
She
has
no
interest
in
English
at
all,
but
sadly, the
teacher
would
call
the
roll
on
each
class.
Xiao
Liu
from
South
China
Normal
University
stresses
that
Higher
Mathematics
really
gives
him a big
headache.
If
the
teacher
wants
to
call
the
roll,
he's
willing to pay for the
substitute for his truancy.
He
Qianting,
associate
professor
in
Chinese
language
department from
Zhongshan
University
points
out
that
it's
sad
that
paying for attending class is becoming a trend.
It's a dishonest behavior and it should be
severely criticized. University
time is
very precious for every student. They should learn
something important instead of paying others to
attend classes for
their classes.
Xiong Bingqi Professor,
educational expert thinks this phenomenon is
popular among universities in China. He's hoping
all
schools
and
educational
departments
should
reflect
on
three
factors:
First,
universities
can
have
more
options to
design
school courses; Second, to change the
existing teachers' appraisal systems, putting more
emphasize on teaching itself; Third,
all teachers should make every effort
to make their courses more interesting and
attractive.

How to write
a persuasive essay
Writing a persuasive
essay is much like preparing for a debate. You
need to study your persuasive essay topic from
various
perspectives,
establish
your
main
argument
and
gather
supporting
evidence.
You
also
need
to
know
how
to
write
a
persuasive essay, namely how to
organize parts of the persuasive essay in the way
that will work best.
Try
the
following instructions on how to write a
persuasive essay. They are indispensable in
writing a well-planned and
thoroughly
considered persuasive essay.
Start with an Impressive Lead-In
The
introduction
of
your
persuasive
essay
is
the
first
words
you
utter
to
render
the
readers
to
be
well-disposed
to
you.
Moreover, it is by the
introduction that the reader decides whether to go
on reading you essay or leave it in peace. Thus,
the
introduction of your essay should
be attention grabbing and impressive enough to
induce the reader to read further on.
Writing a persuasive essay, you need to
pay particular attention to the first sentence you
are going to write down, namely a
lead-
in. It is the most important part of the whole
persuasive essay, out of which you come out either
a winner or a loser.
To
write a strong and impressive lead-in, try the
following strategies:
start
with an unusual detail;
put a strong
statement;
quote a famous person;
introduce a short and up-to-the-point
anecdote;
open the essay with a
statistic or fact;
start with an
emphatic rhetorical question;
Before
deciding on one of the strategies, try all of
them. You will be surprised to find out how
different strategies can enrich
and
smarten up the introduction to your persuasive
essay.
After you have put
the opening sentence, be sure to introduce a
sentence that will show that you see both pros and
cons of
the subject matter under
consideration. Then write a thesis or focus
statement, which has to reveal your own point of
view.
A well-formulated thesis
statement is the key to success, as it is the
central part of your essay, around which all other
parts
are organized.
Remember that a good introduction
should be brief, concise and end with a closing
sentence that will be transitional to the
next paragrath.
Support Y
our Thesis in the
Body
The body of your persuasive essay
is the main part of your writing where you present
supporting evidence and elaborate on
the reasons you stated previously. The
body should be a proof that you have researched
and examined your persuasive essay
topic and that your arguments are
reasonable and reliable.
