I would like to talk about tennis which is my best love among all the popular sports Tennis is popular all over the world especially loved by teenagers There is a comic book named Prince of Tennis illustrated by a Japanese artist The spread of this book made tennis more popular
The spirit of tennis is practice makes perfect and we should never give up When I was in sixth grade I began to learn how to play tennis because I was a fan of the comic book When I play tennis I will devote myself to it I have entered for many tennis competitions I like winning so the procedure seems exciting At that time I was not good at sports But after playing tennis my PE grades became the best in my class
Because of tennis I learned that I should never give up when I face difficulties I still have lots more to work on Tennis is my favorite outdoor sport
2Moviestarstruck
I recently watched a movie called Starstruck which was a Disney movie talking about how a famous pop star Christopher fell in love with an ordinary girl Jessica The movie was filmed in Los Angeles and was on in February 2010 not too old
I chose it because of the ranking but when I actually watched it I realized that it was a teen’s movie However I didn’t regret watching it because I think I learned something from the movie It is interesting because it sees celebrity life from another angle and tells us that we are blessed to be common people because there is more freedom for us to enjoy In the film it shows us how hard it might be when a person can’t make his own choices and decisions At that point material wealth will not matter to them because they can’t live their life the way they really want to
It helped me to reflect on my own life Now I see I should just enjoy my life because everyone has the right to enjoy his or her life no matter who he or she is

4 A favorite subject
I think the most interesting subject in my high school is geography I have a dream to travel around the world since I was a child At that time I would always wonder where exactly some famous cities were on the map such as London New York so I am really interested in geography
I had a great geography teacher in my high school She was knowledgeable hardworking and devoted to the students I always felt very excited when I had geography classes because I couldn’t wait to learn more about the world Besides that I also liked reading atlas and other books about geography during my spare time I would always have good marksgrades on geography throughout my high school years
When I talk about geography with my classmates or even parents I can always impress them with my knowledge I still like geography and hope I can travel around the world in the future
5 sports Jogging
Nowadays many people spend too much time indoors working or studying but outdoor activities are very important for us to keep healthy I like many outdoor activities especially jogging
I often jog in the park near my home on sunny days I can listen to music and breathe the fresh air while I jog so I can feel really relaxed When I jog in the park I can also see the green trees and beautiful flowers I can feel close to the nature It’s also a good time for me to think important things in life I feel it’s an important part of my daily life Sometimes I would ask my friends or parents to join me It’s also a good time to communicate with others It’s a simple activity you only need a pair of good sneakers It’s also suitable for many people from children to old people They can enjoy this activity
I think everybody should do some outdoor activities because it’s a great way to help us get close to the nature It’s not only good for our physical fitness but also good for our mental health
6 A Toy
I want to describe a toy in my childhood Actually it was not a girly toy It is a model car
When I was a kid I acted like a boy and I was very interested in car models and guns But my mother didn’t know that and she bought many dolls for me To tell you the truth my father found that I liked model cars so he bought me one as a little present
It’s as big as a book and the color was very bright it was red I think the car was cool and I liked it very much I would always take it out and study it I figured out many functions of the car I felt it was amazing that people could invent this tool for transportation
Since it was the gift that my father gave me I kept it very carefully Even now it still looks like a brand new car I think it’s very meaningful for a kid to own something that they like
7 A practical skill
I’d like to describe a skill I learned which is to edit songs on computer by using the software called cool edit
I love singing so a skill to edit songs is very practical and important for me I first heard about it when I was eleven years old When I was surfing the internet a net friend told me about this software I began to learn how to use at once by watching many online classes about it Soon I can record my voice on the computer and after a lot of practice I can edit many audio files perfectly For example I sang a song named take me away after being edited it sounds just like the original singer’s singing It is amazing because I can even change a girl’s voice into a boy’s voice
I like to play with it in my spare time so my skill has improved a lot When I told my friends about it all of them were really impressed
8 A piece of equipmentairconditioner
I’d like to talk about a piece of advanced equipment in my home an air conditioner My parents bought it in a department store when I was sixteen years old to replace the old one
I think it is interesting to use this equipment just like magic Because when we use it it can change hot air to cold air When we are cold we also get warm by using it I can’t imagine what our life will be if we don’t have it
Of course we don’t use it all the time Because when in spring or autumn the weather is very comfortable it isn’t necessary to use it If we use it all the time it is not environmental friendly Also it is not good for our health if we stay in an airconditioned room for a long time When I feel very hot or cold outside I will miss my air conditioner
9A person who speaks a foreign language
I’d like to describe a foreign teacher of mine Bob He is tall and strong with strong muscles He is a typical American—confident and humorous He is a very attractive man
A lot of my classmates liked his class very much I also chose his course in the second year of my university At first I didn’t feel there was anything special about him Later I found that he really had the ability to make his class interesting because he was so funny and good at telling jokes He was also creative He had so many new ways for us to practice our English
After class I like talking with him in both Chinese and English because he also learned some Chinese Through communicating with him I learned a lot about western culture
I need to thank him Because of him I feel that English is actually a fun subject to learn My interest in English grew and now I’m still interested in learning language
10 A family but not yours
I’d like to talk about my uncle’s family I think the life style in this family is very different from mine because as a big family they can do many things together It’s very different from my family they have three children two boys and one girl
This is big family is always very lively I’m the only child so sometimes I feel lonely But in this family you will always hear the laughter and everyone will be influenced by their cheerfulness They always do some outdoor activities For example they would have picnic on weekends and go mountain climbing at the nearby places They sometimes go far away places for long trips I admire them because when I look at their pictures I could see how happy they are
Usually I think it’s a good thing to be the only child because I could have my parents’ full attention However sometimes when I look at their family I will feel it might be even better if I have brothers and sisters
11 A friend you admire
I want to talk about one of my playmates in my childhood Her name is Su She’s very beautiful She had long black hair and big eyes She looked like a Barbie doll
However her personality was very different from her appearance I like her because of her strong personality and her kindness to others She never cried even when she hurt her knees badly and would always help and comfort others just like a big sister
I always knew she’s a strong girl but later I realized that she’s stronger than I thought When we were in primary school one day my teacher asked her out and told her that her father died in a car accident She came back to our classroom to get her school bag without crying When I went to her home to ensure she was ok I saw her comforting her mother She was like an adult still without crying
Later she went to Canada and we haven’t seen each other for about five years I can still her beautiful appearance and her strong personality When I feel discouraged I will always remember her and I can become strong because of her influence
12 A successful foreign person
There are many successful people in the world Since I’m a football fan I’d like to talk about David Beckham a successful football player A lot of people know him not because he’s an excellent football player but because of his good looking Especially a lot of women they regard him as a big sport star But that’s not the reason I admire him I think he’s a successful man because he works hard and never gives up
As a young player he was blamed for his mistake that caused the failure of his national team in the 1998 world cup A lot of people laughed at him but he was not defeated and tried harder than before In 2001 his score helped his national team to win the game against Greece which enabled them to enter world cup in the next year He became a national hero overnight
I learned a lot from him Sometimes we might fail once or several times but it doesn’t mean we will never succeed It’s always good to keep trying I believe hard work will eventually make a big difference
13a quiz show One Versus One Hundred
I only watch TV occasionally but there are still many TV programs that I like I recently watched a program called 1 versus 100 which is a quiz show presented on Hunan TV channel
We can easily tell the nature of the program by hearing the name There will be one challenger versus one hundred opponents at each show Both the one and the one hundred will be given the same multiplechoice questions One question is asked at a time and the one hundred answer first then it will be the one’s turn Since the one is alone during the show heshe is allowed to ask for help three times including making a phone call following the majority or asking the presenter to eliminate one wrong answer Each time some of the one hundred will be eliminated if they get the answer wrong In the end if the one answers all the questions correctly the one will win the game and get a big amount of money as the prize However if the one fails the money will be divided by the remaining opponents Maybe because of the big prize or the competitive atmosphere the participants are always very excited
The reason I like it is that this quiz show asks some simple questions that we are supposed to know but a lot of people actually have never thought about them For example one question asked was about the picture on the back of a 50 yuan RMB but the majority of the one hundred got this simple question wrong I have seen several shows but I have never seen the one answered all the questions correctly I began to wonder that maybe I could enter for the show too because I actually knew the answers of a lot of their questions I think it will be fun if I can try
14 Advertisement
I want to tell you an advertisement about a health product called Naobaijin It’s such a famous advertisement that almost everybody in China can recite the lines of the advertisement
The advertisement is very simple An old couple tell us that they don’t need any gift for the spring festival but naobaijin It has been showed on TV year after year especially during the Spring Festival In China young people are supposed to buy presents for the older generation during Chinese New Year but they usually don’t have many good choices except cigarette and wine These are not good for their health Because Naobaijin is a very healthy gift for older people so it becomes popular You would see it everywhere from newspapers to internet
A lot of people might feel tired of it but I think it is a successful advertisement although it is not creative It’s simple to remember so everybody knows this product now It has drawn our attentions successfully and brought fortune to the manufacturer
15Hotpot Restaurant
I’d like to talk about a hotpot restaurant called super hot in my hometown I like hotpot very much My friend told me about the restaurant so I went there with my sister
The food there is very delicious After eating there many times I recommended it to my friends and most of them liked it too I think the manager is very creative Since the business is very good sometimes customers have to wait for the tables The manager make this waiting time more rewarding When the costumers have to wait for more than five minutes they can have three plates of vegetables for free Sometimes we feel happy if we have to wait which is very different from the experiences in other restaurants If you eat there you can enjoy your drinks for a low price and you get your refills for free I think it is very economic
It became a very famous restaurant in my city Now a lot of chain restaurants opened in my hometown I think the business of this restaurant will be even better Maybe soon we will be able to find it in hangzhou

2 Describe a new law
Well to provide a secured life for the public every year the government of China is improving in its law system by updating those already existed ones or by issuing new ones Here I would like to talk about a new law that was just in practice in January 1st this year It is about the regulations on advertisements on TVs and Radios
For a time in the past there are great varieties of advertisements on TVs and radios but due to lack of proper management and supervision there exist a lot of misleading or unhealthy advertisements which exert a negative influence on the general public And therefore in January 1st this new regulations were called into practice
In this new law it does not allow any misleading advertisements or advertisements that contain unhealthy information such as violence pornography disgusting pictures unhealthy life attitude Also it does not allow any advertisements about cigarettes and those about liquors are limited to a larger extent In addition it also regulates about the timing the periods about the advertisements
In this way this new law tends to provide the public a much healthier living environment And from its practice over the past months the public especially the children do have a much better exposure of information from TV and radio programs I do hope that more and more news laws that are intended to improve our life are issued in the future
3 Describe a TV presenter
Well there are so many different TV programs on show everyday in diversified channels hence there are thousands and thousands of TV presenters we can see Some may leave us a very deep impression while others may not leave a thing in our mind Here I’d like to talk about the TV presenter I love Wuzongxian although others may have a mixed feeling about him
Being a TV presenter in Taiwan Wu started his career in the field of variety shows in the late 1980s and then he became famous because of his unique style of hosting TV programs and therefore the TV programs he hosted are constantly ahead in the ratings All these earn him the top salary among those TV presenters in Taiwan being the local king for many years In 2008 he even won the Golden Bell Awards in television industry
His fast reaction and tactfulness in hosting is among the first class second to few others and gradually he formed his own style of hosting TV programs Because he likes to use those popular words on the internet and his figure is not like other middleaged men he is quite popular among the young audience However he also likes to rip on people open the yellow gun speak nonsense and disrespect women which meanwhile bring him a lot of criticisms
Thanks to the change of the criteria of assessment Wu was nominated three times for the best TV presenter in 20062007 and 2008 and successfully won the golden bell award in 2008 with the popular program guess guess guess This is also the best affirmation to him
When I feel stressed and in my spare time I like to watch the program he hosts I like to enjoy the relaxation and laugh out my pressures by seeing him on the screen He is really a great TV presenter in my mind
4 Describe an artist
Well you know when we are pursuing a more fashionable life various kinds of arts are being created However compared to the achievements and levels of those artists in our history it is hard to find out one who is more outstanding Therefore to describe an artist I would like to talk about Qi baishi One of the ten top artists in the 20th century in China and also wellknow through out the world
I became to know him when I was in the middle school when my father one day came back home very excitedly because he successfully got one painting of Qibaishi However a week later my father was disappointed because the painting turned out to be a fake Later I am quite interested in gathering all possible information about this artist and his art works
Under his brush each flower bird fish and even an insect is amazingly vivid while the hills the waters and the figures are all perfect showing the wisdom and philosophy of life and thus moving the readers directly In his 80s he was especially famous for his talents in drawing shrimps He was so hard working that in his life time he had produced more than 30000 paintings and 3000 poems
He is a great artist because of his profound achievement in the filed of paintings calligraphies poems and seals because of his combination of the folk art and traditional art because of his integration of paintings from the life and paintings with freehand I really admire him
Well you know in my childhood I was really a naughty boy and I did a lot of naughty things such as breaking the neighbor’s windows because of my poor football skills beating other people’s pet dogs to see them bark around the yard disguising myself as ghosts to scare other children and so on Even now when I recall those naughty things smiles may still arise on my face But here I would like to talk about a naughty thing I did to my grandfather because in the end I was praised because of my bad behavior
5 naughty things
When I was 9 years old it was the first summer holiday that I had as a student my parents sent me to the countryside to live with my grandpa coz they were too busy to take care of me in the daytime Not like many other grandpas who may spoil their grandchildren my grandpa was quite demanding on me You know I was only 9 years old but during that summer holiday he often asked me to go to the farmland with him to do the farming even in the hot sunshine And so I tried my best to avoid doing the labor One day together with my grandpa we planted corns in the filed My grandpa was ahead digging holes for me to cast the corn seeds inside And he worked so hard that he dug the holes faster than I could sow the seeds In order to work less and try to finish the work quickly I sowed much more seeds than were needed for one hole and soon we ran out of corn seeds Although there were still a lot of holes vacant we had to finish the job and went back home Yeah not enough seeds And I felt happy because my grandpa didn’t find out my trick Several weeks later the corn plants sprouted In some places there were only a few but in others there were a lot And I was not aware that my trick would be discovered later when they grew out Luckily it happened that year we met a drought and those sprouts did not grew well even some of them died My grandpa then divided some of the sprouts from those spare ones and planted them into those vacant holes You know my grandpa did not blame me for my trick but praised about my contribution He said thank you boy it is you that we could grow those corns so well in the field
Well my naughty behavior turned out to be a contribution It was the only time that I got praise for my naughty behavior Even now when I think about it it’s still a funny memory
6 Describe a good teacher
Everyone may have many teachers in their life Some may be helpful to him while others may not Here I would like to talk about my head teacher in my high school Mrs Hu She is a middle aged woman in her forties She has a very cute face and friendly to others Everyone likes her at first sight
Mrs Hu is very responsible for us Every time when students in her class have troubles she would be the first one there to offer help so she is very busy and have less time to stay with her family
She is very skillful in her teaching and management of the class She knows how to teach those naughty boys how to arouse our interests in learning and how to unite our class together Being one of her students we all feel proud
She is very professional in teaching knowledge to students She teaches politics in the high school and it seems that she knows a lot about the situation in china and in the world She likes to teach the knowledge by telling us stories and her own analysis This helps us greatly in understanding the knowledge and remembering the facts
She is really a good teacher friendly responsible skillful and professional We all love her
Getting away from traffic for sake of health
We citydwellers already know about the extra risks we face from heart disease and sudden cardiac arrest linked to air pollution But according to a new study we may be able to reduce our risk of dying of coronary heart disease by moving away from traffic
citydweller 城市居住者 sudden cardiac arrest 心跳骤停 coronary heart disease 冠心病
The dirtier the air the more likely people are to suffer sudden cardiac arrest
The study looked at more than 450000 healthy adults in Vancouver Canada and found that people who lived within 009 miles of a highway or 003 miles of a major road were 29 percent more likely to die of coronary heart disease than those who lived farther away However people who first lived near heavy traffic then moved away were just 14 percent more likely to die
be likely to do sth 极 heavy traffic 交通拥挤
The first thing I did after reading that was check my own Brooklyn brownstone rental on Google Maps Turns out I’m 005 mile away from a major road which is probably why I have to clean soot off my windowsill every weekend
I can’t move though Most of us can’t The busy location is one of the reasons I could afford the rent Besides so many people are living in cities now more than ever before that fleeing to the countryside isn’t a realistic option If we’re going to get serious about reducing the estimated 60000 US deaths per year caused by smallparticle pollution we’re going to have to attack vehicle pollution at its urban source The American Heart Association recommends stricter emissions standards We could also work to pass laws against building houses and apartments too close to main roads or even to make sure the residential buildings are built facing away from winds carrying pollutants

As a young player he was blamed for his mistake that caused the failure of his national team in the 1998 world cup A lot of people laughed at him but he was not defeated and tried harder than before In 2001 his score helped his national team to win the game against Greece which enabled them to enter world cup in the next year He became a national hero overnight
I learned a lot from him Sometimes we might fail once or several times but it doesn’t mean we will never succeed It’s always good to keep trying I believe hard work will eventually make a big difference
13a quiz show One Versus One Hundred
I only watch TV occasionally but there are still many TV programs that I like I recently watched a program called 1 versus 100 which is a quiz show presented on Hunan TV channel
We can easily tell the nature of the program by hearing the name There will be one challenger versus one hundred opponents at each show Both the one and the one hundred will be given the same multiplechoice questions One question is asked at a time and the one hundred answer first then it will be the one’s turn Since the one is alone during the show heshe is allowed to ask for help three times including making a phone call following the majority or asking the presenter to eliminate one wrong answer Each time some of the one hundred will be eliminated if they get the answer wrong In the end if the one answers all the questions correctly the one will win the game and get a big amount of money as the prize However if the one fails the money will be divided by the remaining opponents Maybe because of the big prize or the competitive atmosphere the participants are always very excited
The reason I like it is that this quiz show asks some simple questions that we are supposed to know but a lot of people actually have never thought about them For example one question asked was about the picture on the back of a 50 yuan RMB but the majority of the one hundred got this simple question wrong I have seen several shows but I have never seen the one answered all the questions correctly I began to wonder that maybe I could enter for the show too because I actually knew the answers of a lot of their questions I think it will be fun if I can try
14 Advertisement
I want to tell you an advertisement about a health product called Naobaijin It’s such a famous advertisement that almost everybody in China can recite the lines of the advertisement
The advertisement is very simple An old couple tell us that they don’t need any gift for the spring festival but naobaijin It has been showed on TV year after year especially during the Spring Festival In China young people are supposed to buy presents for the older generation during Chinese New Year but they usually don’t have many good choices except cigarette and wine These are not good for their health Because Naobaijin is a very healthy gift for older people so it becomes popular You would see it everywhere from newspapers to internet
A lot of people might feel tired of it but I think it is a successful advertisement although it is not creative It’s simple to remember so everybody knows this product now It has drawn our attentions successfully and brought fortune to the manufacturer
15Hotpot Restaurant
I’d like to talk about a hotpot restaurant called super hot in my hometown I like hotpot very much My friend told me about the restaurant so I went there with my sister
The food there is very delicious After eating there many times I recommended it to my friends and most of them liked it too I think the manager is very creative Since the business is very good sometimes customers have to wait for the tables The manager make this waiting time more rewarding When the costumers have to wait for more than five minutes they can have three plates of vegetables for free Sometimes we feel happy if we have to wait which is very different from the experiences in other restaurants If you eat there you can enjoy your drinks for a low price and you get your refills for free I think it is very economic
It became a very famous restaurant in my city Now a lot of chain restaurants opened in my hometown I think the business of this restaurant will be even better Maybe soon we will be able to find it in hangzhou

2 Describe a new law
Well to provide a secured life for the public every year the government of China is improving in its law system by updating those already existed ones or by issuing new ones Here I would like to talk about a new law that was just in practice in January 1st this year It is about the regulations on advertisements on TVs and Radios
For a time in the past there are great varieties of advertisements on TVs and radios but due to lack of proper management and supervision there exist a lot of misleading or unhealthy advertisements which exert a negative influence on the general public And therefore in January 1st this new regulations were called into practice
In this new law it does not allow any misleading advertisements or advertisements that contain unhealthy information such as violence pornography disgusting pictures unhealthy life attitude Also it does not allow any advertisements about cigarettes and those about liquors are limited to a larger extent In addition it also regulates about the timing the periods about the advertisements
In this way this new law tends to provide the public a much healthier living environment And from its practice over the past months the public especially the children do have a much better exposure of information from TV and radio programs I do hope that more and more news laws that are intended to improve our life are issued in the future
3 Describe a TV presenter
Well there are so many different TV programs on show everyday in diversified channels hence there are thousands and thousands of TV presenters we can see Some may leave us a very deep impression while others may not leave a thing in our mind Here I’d like to talk about the TV presenter I love Wuzongxian although others may have a mixed feeling about him
Being a TV presenter in Taiwan Wu started his career in the field of variety shows in the late 1980s and then he became famous because of his unique style of hosting TV programs and therefore the TV programs he hosted are constantly ahead in the ratings All these earn him the top salary among those TV presenters in Taiwan being the local king for many years In 2008 he even won the Golden Bell Awards in television industry
His fast reaction and tactfulness in hosting is among the first class second to few others and gradually he formed his own style of hosting TV programs Because he likes to use those popular words on the internet and his figure is not like other middleaged men he is quite popular among the young audience However he also likes to rip on people open the yellow gun speak nonsense and disrespect women which meanwhile bring him a lot of criticisms
Thanks to the change of the criteria of assessment Wu was nominated three times for the best TV presenter in 20062007 and 2008 and successfully won the golden bell award in 2008 with the popular program guess guess guess This is also the best affirmation to him
When I feel stressed and in my spare time I like to watch the program he hosts I like to enjoy the relaxation and laugh out my pressures by seeing him on the screen He is really a great TV presenter in my mind
4 Describe an artist
Well you know when we are pursuing a more fashionable life various kinds of arts are being created However compared to the achievements and levels of those artists in our history it is hard to find out one who is more outstanding Therefore to describe an artist I would like to talk about Qi baishi One of the ten top artists in the 20th century in China and also wellknow through out the world
I became to know him when I was in the middle school when my father one day came back home very excitedly because he successfully got one painting of Qibaishi However a week later my father was disappointed because the painting turned out to be a fake Later I am quite interested in gathering all possible information about this artist and his art works
Under his brush each flower bird fish and even an insect is amazingly vivid while the hills the waters and the figures are all perfect showing the wisdom and philosophy of life and thus moving the readers directly In his 80s he was especially famous for his talents in drawing shrimps He was so hard working that in his life time he had produced more than 30000 paintings and 3000 poems
He is a great artist because of his profound achievement in the filed of paintings calligraphies poems and seals because of his combination of the folk art and traditional art because of his integration of paintings from the life and paintings with freehand I really admire him
Well you know in my childhood I was really a naughty boy and I did a lot of naughty things such as breaking the neighbor’s windows because of my poor football skills beating other people’s pet dogs to see them bark around the yard disguising myself as ghosts to scare other children and so on Even now when I recall those naughty things smiles may still arise on my face But here I would like to talk about a naughty thing I did to my grandfather because in the end I was praised because of my bad behavior
5 naughty things
When I was 9 years old it was the first summer holiday that I had as a student my parents sent me to the countryside to live with my grandpa coz they were too busy to take care of me in the daytime Not like many other grandpas who may spoil their grandchildren my grandpa was quite demanding on me You know I was only 9 years old but during that summer holiday he often asked me to go to the farmland with him to do the farming even in the hot sunshine And so I tried my best to avoid doing the labor One day together with my grandpa we planted corns in the filed My grandpa was ahead digging holes for me to cast the corn seeds inside And he worked so hard that he dug the holes faster than I could sow the seeds In order to work less and try to finish the work quickly I sowed much more seeds than were needed for one hole and soon we ran out of corn seeds Although there were still a lot of holes vacant we had to finish the job and went back home Yeah not enough seeds And I felt happy because my grandpa didn’t find out my trick Several weeks later the corn plants sprouted In some places there were only a few but in others there were a lot And I was not aware that my trick would be discovered later when they grew out Luckily it happened that year we met a drought and those sprouts did not grew well even some of them died My grandpa then divided some of the sprouts from those spare ones and planted them into those vacant holes You know my grandpa did not blame me for my trick but praised about my contribution He said thank you boy it is you that we could grow those corns so well in the field
Well my naughty behavior turned out to be a contribution It was the only time that I got praise for my naughty behavior Even now when I think about it it’s still a funny memory
6 Describe a good teacher
Everyone may have many teachers in their life Some may be helpful to him while others may not Here I would like to talk about my head teacher in my high school Mrs Hu She is a middle aged woman in her forties She has a very cute face and friendly to others Everyone likes her at first sight
Mrs Hu is very responsible for us Every time when students in her class have troubles she would be the first one there to offer help so she is very busy and have less time to stay with her family
She is very skillful in her teaching and management of the class She knows how to teach those naughty boys how to arouse our interests in learning and how to unite our class together Being one of her students we all feel proud
She is very professional in teaching knowledge to students She teaches politics in the high school and it seems that she knows a lot about the situation in china and in the world She likes to teach the knowledge by telling us stories and her own analysis This helps us greatly in understanding the knowledge and remembering the facts
She is really a good teacher friendly responsible skillful and professional We all love her
Getting away from traffic for sake of health
We citydwellers already know about the extra risks we face from heart disease and sudden cardiac arrest linked to air pollution But according to a new study we may be able to reduce our risk of dying of coronary heart disease by moving away from traffic
citydweller 城市居住者 sudden cardiac arrest 心跳骤停 coronary heart disease 冠心病
The dirtier the air the more likely people are to suffer sudden cardiac arrest
The study looked at more than 450000 healthy adults in Vancouver Canada and found that people who lived within 009 miles of a highway or 003 miles of a major road were 29 percent more likely to die of coronary heart disease than those who lived farther away However people who first lived near heavy traffic then moved away were just 14 percent more likely to die
be likely to do sth 极 heavy traffic 交通拥挤
The first thing I did after reading that was check my own Brooklyn brownstone rental on Google Maps Turns out I’m 005 mile away from a major road which is probably why I have to clean soot off my windowsill every weekend
I can’t move though Most of us can’t The busy location is one of the reasons I could afford the rent Besides so many people are living in cities now more than ever before that fleeing to the countryside isn’t a realistic option If we’re going to get serious about reducing the estimated 60000 US deaths per year caused by smallparticle pollution we’re going to have to attack vehicle pollution at its urban source The American Heart Association recommends stricter emissions standards We could also work to pass laws against building houses and apartments too close to main roads or even to make sure the residential buildings are built facing away from winds carrying pollutants
