Topic1 On
making mistakes
anything.
indicates
that
to
err
is
human,
as
was
remarked
centuries
ago
by
Alexander
Pope,
the
renowned
British
poet.
Strangely
enough,
people
exert great efforts
to avoid making mistakes, which actually are part
of our life. Let's name but a few.
First, we may take the wrong steps
when
we first learn to toddle, and fall over. However,
we learn how to
walk and run from it.
Second, we may make friends with someone who is
a hypocrite, and get hurt.
Topic2 On manner of dealing with people
Confucius once said,
to be
done to you
the
interpersonal
relationship.
It
tells
us
that
we
should
put
ourselves in others' shoes when we get
along with others. However, in
reality,
chances are good that people do things in their
own way and
fail
to
take
others'
feelings
into
consideration.
There
may
be
no
better example than living in the
dormitory. For example, in the same
dormitory some like playing video games
with a loudspeaker, but others
like
quietness and enjoy reading. Some like to stay up
late with the
light on, but others get
used to sleep early. As a result, all may
dislike each other and the dormitory
life may become chaotic. In short,
mutual understanding is indeed vital in
dealing
with others. That's
why
the
first
thing
I
will
do
in
social
interaction
is
to
be
more
considerate, thinking of others'
feelings more. What's more, I will
try
to be as polite as possible and show my sincerity
all the time,
always treating others as
I'd like to be treated myself.

Topic3 Dare to
be different
Coco
Chanel,
founder
of
the
world
famous
French
brand
Chanel,
remarked:
The quote not only summarizes the
secret of Chanel, but also reveals
the
jungle
law
of
our
society:
it
gains
the
competitive
edge
to
be
different.
If you are
different from others,
you are hard
to be replaced,
because others don't have special
qualities as you do. However, if you
don't stand out, the situation is
wholly different. China, for example,
was known for its cheap labor, which
made the products
popular in the world.
But now, China is being replaced by countries
like Vietnam for their cheaper labor.
After all, the Chinese model has
nothing
special
and
is
easy
to
copy.
On
the
contrary,
the
American
design, for their
distinction and originality, has nearly met no
rivals
yet.
As
for
me,
the
most
important
thing
to
be
different
and
irreplaceable is to dare to be myself.
First, I will do what I like to
do and
what I'm good at. What's more, I will keep
learning skills to
keep improving
myself. And I will speak out and dare to present
the
opposite views.
Topic4 On information
The
advent
of
the Internet
has brought us into an era of
information
explosion.
Many
people
embrace
the
new
information
age,
cheering
is
pretty thin stuff unless mixed with
experience.
with the latter, because
experience is the catalyst to make information
valuable. There is no doubt that the
importance of information becomes
so
self-evident, but without experience information
can be futile or
even fatal. Take Ma Su
as an example.
As a smart disciple of
Zhuge
Liang, the legendary figure in
the Romance of Three Kingdoms, he was
页脚
.
.
.
good at analyzing
information and coming up with brilliant military
tactics.
But
when
appointed
commander
in
a
real
battle,
he
met
his
Waterloo
for
the
lack
of
hands-on
experience.
In
order
to
make
information more
useful, we need experience to guide us how to make
the best of information. Of course, we
should gather useful information
first.
But
what
is
more
important
is
to
apply
the
information
to
practical use and accumulate as much
valuable experience as possible,
which
can make information
Topic5
On obstacles
There is a saying that
goes,
when he takes his eyes off his
goal.
meaning is more than profound. It
is indicated in the quote that if we
stick to our goal, we will triumph over
any adversity and no longer
see them as
obstacles. For instance, I once had to make a
tough decision
after my failure in the
college entrance examination: to accept what
life
throws
at
me
or
to
try
it
again.
Since
college
was
my
dream,
finally
I decided to do it again despite the prospect that
I had to
bear more pressure than ever.
Life didn't let me down again due to my
determination and hard work. Adversity
is a challenge for cowards but
an
opportunity for the brave. Therefore, every time
adversity blocks
my way, I always tell
myself not to fear and keep reminding myself of
where I am heading. Moreover, I will
cope with obstacles by analyzing
the
problems and finding the solution to them. I have
faith that I can
overcome any obstacle
and finally get to my destination.
Topic6 On preparation
There
goes
a
famous
saying,
failing
to
prepare,
you
are
preparing to
fail.
页脚
.
.
.
of
preparation can never be underestimated. If one
doesn't get well
prepared before taking
action, chances are good that he/she will be
doomed to fail. Getting ready is the
secret to success. If you don't
develop
adequate
abilities,
gather
enough
experience
or
prepare
yourself mentally,
you can hardly succeed. The sports world abounds
in
examples
which
demonstrate
this
point.
Li
Na,
the
greatest
Chinese
female
tennis
player,
had
practiced
hard
for
many
years
and
played
countless matches both at home and
abroad and suffered so many losses
before she won the championships in the
French Open and the Australian
Open.
James Harden, one of the NBA talents, used to be a
bench player
for the Thunder, but years
of preparation made him the backbone of the
Rockets. As a college student, in order
to avoid failure in the future,
what I
can do is to make full use of everyday. In other
words, I will
master as many core
skills and knowledge as possible, and get myself
ready for my future career.
Topic7 Challenge yourself
A
famous saying goes,
you
could
never
do,
and
what
you'll
find
is
that
you
can
overcome
anything
and outside of your
comfort zone, you will tap into your potentials
and discover how strong you really are.
I find no better example than
my
English learning experience. Before college, I was
quite good at
English
reading
and
writing,
but
my
oral
English
is
was
rather
disappointing. What's worse, I was so
shy that I even seldom spoke in
public.
I
thought
I
could
never
speak
fluent
English.
However,
my
fondness
of
English
encouraged
me
to
open
my
mouth.
Constantly,
I
challenged
myself
to
make
English
speeches
in
class
and
practiced
speaking with foreign teachers. Two
years later, I made great strides
页脚
.
.
.
in oral English and could
speak English with foreigners freely. You
never
know
how
potential
you
are
until
you
challenge
yourself.
Therefore, I think there are many
things I can try to challenge myself
daily to better myself, such as getting
up early each day and learning
more
English words, talking to one stranger each day,
ditching one bad
habit in a month.
Topic8 On success
There is such a saying,
have
the
courage
to
lose
sight
of
the
shore.
This
saying
not
only
emphasizes the importance of courage
for success
but also indicates
that
courage
is
the
first
step
toward
success.
Indeed,
having
the
courage to take the
first step to act is quite essential for success.
As we all know, human beings are great
thinkers, capable of coming up
with
brilliant schemes. Yet from scheme to success
there is a long way
to
go.
Without
the
boldness
to
make
the
first
step,
no
scheme
can
translate into success. Take Bill Gates
as an example. If he had not
been
bold
enough
to
choose
to
drop
out
of
Harvard
and
embark
on
a
software
business
venture,
he
might
not
be
able
to
build
up
his
Microsoft
Empire.
As
a
college
student,
I
think
the
first
step
to
success for me is to
dedicate myself to study and to learn more useful
skills, which will pave the way for my
future career. I know for sure
that if
I don't work hard,
I have no chance to
savor the
beautiful
scenery
beyond the ocean.
Topic9
Doubt and Faith
In an age where faith
appears to be questioned at every turn, some
people hold that doubt should be
smothered the very moment it arises
in
case it taints
our faith. However,
more
people
believe in the saying,
页脚
.
.
.
indicates that
doubt can actually reinforce our faith. History is
never
short of stories which can
demonstrate the point. As I see, the best
case in point is Confucianism. As a
doctrine held high by the Chinese
dynasties and a faith highly praised by
people, Confucianism has been
doubted
many
times
in
Chinese
history.
However,
doubts
about
Confucianism did not
triumph over but gave rise to transformation which
kept pace with the development of
society. So in today's China,
neo-
Confucianism is still popular and
held as a moral rule to some extent.
As
to how I will keep my own faith, I will not fear
to expose my faith
to doubt and let it
be challenged. Doubt about my faith will urge me
to explore and to
verify it.
Besides,
I will
keep
learning and expanding
my knowledge to
defend my faith and stay strong in it.
Topic10 On imagination

Imagination

a comparison with
logic. It recognizes the power of logic on one
hand,
but on the other hand, it puts
the accent on imagination, the engine
of social development. Logic is
important in certain ways, but it is
imagination
that
is
the
driving
force
of
human
civilization.
For
example, in the past cell phones were
only used for making a call. But
later
they
became
similar
to
the
computer
and
had
more
and
more
functions because of great imagination.
Indeed, they were produced on
the basis
of logic,
including electron or
mechanistic theories,
but
all
the
innovation
should
be
more
credited
to
human
imagination,
without which
logic would have no role to play. As a college
student,
in
order
to
be
imaginative,
first
I
would
keep
learning
and
accumulating knowledge rather than sit
idling. Second, I would stand
