Learn to Be Grateful
第一段：概述问题段
Nowadays quite a few young people lack consciousness of being grateful.They tend to take such things for granted as parents’supporting them，teachers’helping them，and waiters’serving them.They are even mean to say“thank you”.This phenomenon has caused great attention from the whole society.
第二段：说明原因段
The following points can account for the lack of gratefulness consciousness.First of all，unsound family education plays an important role.Most parents tend to pay too much attention to children’s academic performance，but ignore their value orientation.Moreover，schools don’t input enough time and money in moral education.Besides，nowadays young people get so much love that they are insensitive to others’care and help.
第三段：说明方法段
Considering the seriousness of the problem，it is high time to take effective measures to strengthen young people’s consciousness of being grateful.First，parents should improve self-quality and influence children by their own behaviors.Second，society and schools must increase input in moral education.Finally，we should learn to express our gratefulness to people around us，just beginning with a simple“thank you”.

Learn to Give up Wisely
第一段：提出观点段
“Never give up”has been accepted by many people as a positive life attitude.It is no denying that persistence often plays an important role in one’s success.However，in many cases，to give up might be wiser than blind persistence.
第二段：论证观点段
The following reasons can support this argument.Firstly，sometimes our goal may be unrealistic.If we insist it blindly，it will finally bring us nothing but failure.At this time，we should give up the original goal and reset a more practical one.Secondly，not all persistence can bring deserving results.For a very simple example，if we keep waiting in line for hours only to have a lunch，maybe it is unworthy.Finally，to give up wisely do not mean admitting failure.Instead，it does mean a new hope of success.
第三段：总结观点段
Considering the above-mentioned，we can come to the conclusion that to give up wisely is a kind of more mature life attitude.Though giving up sometimes is painful and costly，in the long run，what we gain will definitely far outweigh what we lose.

Parents’Being Slaves to Children
第一段：描述图画段
As can be seen in the picture，the whole family including grandpas and grandmas are supporting a child.The picture reflects a kind of hot phenomenon in Chinese society that many parents become their“children’s slaves”.
第二段：说明影响段
Young parents spend a large part of their income and energy on children，and in many cases these young parents have to turn to their old parents，just as the above picture describes.The burden of raising a child not only pose great financial pressure on these young parents but also might threaten their physical and mental health，and even their marriages.
第三段：说明原因段
In my opinion，the appearance of a“child’s slave”is the result of the following factors.For one thing，the cost of raising a child in China has been on rise，while young parents’incomes are limited.For another，Chinese old tradition of spoiling a child has to be blamed.Parents compete with each other in trying to provide the best possible living conditions for their children.Their expenditure on children is sometimes even beyond their means.

Does Happiness Lie in Contentment？
第一段：提出观点段
There is an old saying which goes“Happiness lies in contentment”.Some people take it as a doctrine and believe they should learn to be content with their present situation，while others maintain that only discontentment can bring constant improvement.
第二段：对比论证段
Those who hold the former opinion say that one person，who is content with profits and position he has gotten，has a more peaceful state of mind and knows more about how to enjoy life.Also，in their opinions，contentment can hold back one’s greed and evil desires.However，many others do not agree this.They think that being satisfied with things as they are will make one accept mediocrity and lose initiative，and finally lead to unhappiness but not happiness.
第三段：总结观点段
Weighing these two arguments，I prefer the latter one.From my point of view，contentment can not bring permanent happiness，and“happiness lies in contentment”is an excuse of those lazy and coward people.Besides，discontentment is a motivation to promote further improvement.Therefore，we should never be content with our present achievement but should improve ourselves constantly.
Test 6
Should College Students Do Business in the Dormitory？
第一段：描述图画段
As we can see from the picture，a students’store is opening for business，and a student is informing his customer of the arrival of the goods he ordered.The picture reflects a kind of phenomenon on campus that some college students with a good business sense have started their own businesses in the dormitory，like a grocery store or a duplicating shop.
第二段：说明利弊段
It is no doubt that doing business brings about some benefits to these students.They can earn more money to ease the burden of their families.What’s more，it makes them become more independent and understand parents’hardships.However，doing business do some harm to the students.Above all，spending too much time on business will influence normal study.Besides，since the dormitory does not belong to one individual，one’s business might disturb the others，which will lead to the disharmonious atmosphere.
第三段：总结观点段
In my opinion，college students’starting a business should be allowed and supported since they can get benefits from it.But it is worth noting that those students shouldn’t ignore their study and should try to avoid disturbing other students.

Travel Alone or Travel with a Companion？
第一段：提出观点段
When it comes to traveling way，different people will offer different opinions.Some people like to travel alone，while others prefer to travel with a companion.Of course，everyone has his consideration for his preference.
第二段：对比论证段
Traveling alone，one can enjoy more freedom.The traveler can arrange his tour as he wishes without the trouble of humoring others.Moreover，traveling alone tends to bring the traveler unexpected surprise，such as making a new friend and enjoying a different scenery.Compared with traveling alone，traveling with a companion has also its advantages.For one thing，the group members can help and look after each other in the journey.For another，traveling with others who have the same interest，he can share costs and experiences with them.
第三段：总结观点段
As for me，I prefer to travel with a companion.Firstly，we can deal with possible problems and difficulties in the journey.Secondly，I like to share the pleasure of traveling with others.In sum，both traveling alone and traveling with a companion have their attractions，and you can find the pleasure from either one.
