The Necessity of Examination

As regards examination, there has been a heated discussion among the

general public in our society. People who believe in its necessity may

have some arguments as follows. To begin with, examination helps to tell

the better-behaved from the worse- behaved students. What

’

s more,

examination may stimulate the students to work harder. Take Xiao Wang

as an example, a student from Hebei Normal University, he used to have

poor command of English. However, under the pressure of College

English Test Band 4, he made great progress and can now speak fluent

English.

By contrast, some people think that examination may give rise to a series

of negative effects. They maintain that examination cannot always

faithfully reflect one

’

s study performance. It is believed that too many

students may be misled and neglect the improvement of practical ability.

Examples of

“

High marks but poor competence

”

are often cited on

different media.

Just as any coin has two sides; it

’

s no exception with the issue of

examination. Students should develop a right attitude towards it and

strike a balance between examination and practical ability achievement.

Integrate Chinese Culture into College Education

As a result of globalization and convenient interaction among different

nations, a variety of native cultures are being or have been lost. It

’

s true

of Chinese culture as well. We may easily recognize all sorts of English

courses in college education curriculum but few of Chinese culture. And

these indicate that Chinese traditional culture has been ignored in

college education.

As we all know, traditional culture represents the accumulated wisdom of

our ancestors down through the ages and is a rich heritage to every

Chinese. For college students, successors of modernization construction,

mastering of Chinese culture is particularly of significance. Besides,

traditional culture education can promote the cultural awareness and

patriotism among college students. Therefore, it

’

s necessary and

beneficial to integrate Chinese culture into college education.

To achieve this, colleges and universities should take effective measures

to preserve the native culture. Culture awareness should be promoted

both through the courses and extracurricular activities. As for college

students, we should actively be involved in the culture education.

University Club

College life is a brand-new period for the freshmen who have just gone

through the

“

torturing

”

high school and a fate-changing college

entrance examination. Among all the new things, one is the clubs and

societies on campus, such as football club, speech club, debate society,

astronomy club, movie association, etc. These associations take the

chance of every September to recruit new blood.

However, students hold different opinions about on-campus clubs and

societies. Some students think that to join in some club is a good

opportunity to develop their comprehensive ability, especially when they

can be leaders. Some students disagree and believe there exist more

disadvantages, since it will take students a lot of time that they should

spend on study, and especially when they immerse themselves in more

than one club. Still some other students are indifferent to on-campus

clubs, or even completely ignore them.

For me, I think it

’

s foolish to be totally involved into some clubs or to be

an outsider completely, and the best way is to make sure about your own

interest, make the correct choice, and fight for a balance between club

activities and study.
