Currently
, we
could
hardly
live a single
day without seeing a celebrity
spokesperson promoting a product or a
social campaign on TV, net or other media. This is
an
intensely
popular trend that we cannot fail to notice.
There is no doubt that the
celebrity spokespeople could boost the sale of a
product. A
host of celebrity
spokespersons,
however
, have
emerged as the marketing tool of some
companies, even companies producing and
selling fake and inferior items. This kind of
behavior has produced negative impacts
on consumers and whole society, which should be
severely criticized and penalized.
Of course, as is known to all,
everything has both
bright and dark
sides.
Some stars’ endorsement of
social activities and public
campaigns
raises public awareness, giving rise to changes in
public behavior. In this case,
they
serve as positive role models of the general
public. To name only one case: Pu CX, a
household figure, acting as the
celebrity spokesman of the China AIDS Foundation,
contributes greatly to the cause of
AIDS prevention and cure in China.

关于选秀节目
Over the past couple of years, a
variety of talent shows have emerged on
TV channels across the nation, from
Super Girls to Happy Boys and so forth.
This type of entertainment program is
intensely popular, especially among
young adults and has produced profound
impacts on their studies and life.
There are a couple of reasons behind
the tide. To start with, young folks need
role models to learn from. So many of
them are crazy for contestants
participating in these programs. This
gives rise to the increasing emergence of
these shows because TV networks
naturally need to cater to young audiences.
Plus, thanks to economic and political
reforms carried out by the government,
this crop of young generation have more
freedom and desire to express and
showcase themselves. Therefore, a
growing number of young people desire to
get involved in these shows.
This is a divisive topic. On my
personal level, the talent show is a superb
means of relaxing and amusing and can
hugely relieve our strains. As college
students, however, we could not afford
to indulge in them and should be aware
of the utmost importance of
studies.

食品安全问题
On the Food Security
Over
the past couple of years, several cases of the
food scandal have been disclosed
on
various media. The problem of food security has
become a hot button across society.
The
prevalence of food insecurity has greatly impacted
public health, which the
government
could not afford to ignore, according to the
online edition of the People Daily.
There are a couple of driving forces, I
would argue, behind this undesirable tide. First,
in the course of the rapid economic
evolution, we ignore moral education, giving rise
to the
rising rate of the problem. More
importantly, the lack of adequate regulation and
punishment on those illegal producers
enforces the trend.
As
Confucius instructed, it is better late than
never. Prompt and strict measures
should be taken to turn back this evil
trend. The government should launch a massive
moral campaign to educate all citizens
and draw up tougher laws to crack down on those
irresponsible corporations and prohibit
them from entering the food industry again. I am
firmly convinced that through our
combined efforts we are bound to enjoy more risk-
free
foods in the days ahead.
社会不文明现象
On Uncivilized Behaviors
We
cannot fail to notice that countless uncivilized
behaviors exist in our daily lives,
such as spitting, talking loudly,
littering, saying nasty words in public places and
so forth.
All these are bad manners
that we should not lose sight of. As an ancient
land enjoying a
splendid civilization
spanning over 5,000 years, China is witnessing a
surge in improper
acts that every
Chinese citizen should feel ashamed of.
Uncivilized behaviors by a host of
Chinese both at home and abroad have
seriously affected China’s image, according to an
editorial posted on People Daily’s
official websit
e.
As Chinese, we should not get offended
when others point out our weaknesses but
should focus more attention on
improving ourselves. We should strive to identify
the
causes of those improper behaviors
and find ways to eliminate them. There are a host
of
causes, I would argue, behind this
trend. To name only one: the lack of moral
education.
The government should wage a
massive moral campaign to fight against this trend
and we
ourselves should endeavor to
behave decently in our daily lives. As college
students of the
new age, we should take
the leading role.
感恩
On Cultivating the Sense of
Gratitude
On college campuses across
the nation, there is a noticeable phenomenon that
we
cannot afford to ignore: far too
many young college students lack the sense of
gratitude,
one of the countless
traditional virtues of this ancient land with a
splendid civilization
spanning over
5,000 years. These young adults were not and are
not aware of the huge
importance of
expressing gratitude to those who once helped
them, from teachers to
parents and so
forth.
Personally, I deem
that the root cause of students without a graceful
heart is that
they receive an education
not valuing the moral sphere. I strongly believe
that joint efforts
from folks across
society are the final remedy for this social
headache. As young university
students
of the new era, we should make our own
contributions to this cause. Imagine a
world without the sense of gratitude.
This kind of world is doomed to failure. Simply
put,
we should join our hands to
heighten our awareness of fostering a graceful
heart. Only in
this way can we build
our society into a harmonious one. My fellow
students, I beg you to
act from now on.
大学生使用信用卡现象
On Credit Card
At present, a
wide vareity of credit cards issued by major banks
and shopping malls
are thriving in
colleges and universities across the nation, with
a multitude of college
students making
up a growing population of card holders. Indeed,
one out of five students
is estimated
to be in possession of at least one credit card,
and the figure is expected to be
on the
steady increse, the latest data published by
Yangtze Evening Post suggests.
Like
anything prior to the emergence of this small
piece of plastic, the increasing
popularity of credit card on campus has
both bright and dark sides. On the one hand,
young adults in college, free from the
trouble of pocketing a considerable sum of cash,
could enjoy the convenience of credit
cards and purchase expensive goods by
installments.
On the other hand,
however, the irresponsible and excessive use of
the cards by these
