正确答案：There are many reasons adult people go back to school, but probably the most common reasons are job-related. In a world of increasing economic variation, we need to be prepared for one thing above all: change. Jobs change, companies change, technology changes. Opportunities arise or disappear. The job you have today might not exist ten years ago, it may no longer exist five years from now! To equip yourself to handle changes, you need further education.
If you are busy with your work and have limited time, online programs may suit you. If you value people-to-people contact of a traditional class, night and weekend classes are set up for the people just like you. Whether your purpose is a certificate, or a higher degree, or some skills, there is always a program to meet your needs.

参考答案：

Many people appreciate the conveniences and comforts provided by private cars. A private car enables a person to go where he wants, so that he can enjoy his leisure to the full by making trips to the country or seaside on the weekends, without any irritation caused by waiting for buses or trains. Public transport, on the other side, has attractions of its own. People can feel relaxed on a bus or on a subway train, because they don’t have to concentrate on driving. And if they use public transport, they will help to lessen air pollution and traffic jams. Moreover, it costs them less money and means more job opportunities for others. As far as I am concerned, I hate the air pollution and traffic jams caused by cars. So given the chance, I would prefer public transport.

正确答案：Recently, numerous reports related to children's dependence on their parents on various media have, once again, aroused wide concern among public about kids' lack the ability to face their lives by themselves. It is widely accepted that excessive reliance on one's parents is bound to be harmful to his prospect and thus it is necessary that some urgent actions be taken to alter current trend.
For one thing, more opportunities should be given to children to participate in different competitive and cooperative activities, for competition is one of effective ways to lead them to achieving outstanding accomplishments and cooperation can build trust between each other and help to bring long-term relationship among peers. For another, it is suggestive that children receive some outward-bounds, which are beneficial to kids' physical and emotional endurance, to inspire children's underlying potentials and shape their best character and consequently cultivate their awareness of independence.
In a nutshell, parents are supposed to be subject to the limitations of traditional concepts of raising a child; on the contrary, children ought to be offered more chances to explore as many as possible areas in their lives to find their optimal careers. Accordingly, the cultivation of the ability to be independent might be regarded as a basic education, which plays a crucial role in a child's all-round development.

参考答案：

In our life, opportunities don’t come often. They often come quietly and pass by without being noticed. Some people complain that opportunities are few. They always admire those people who make a hit or succeed by seizing some opportunities. Owing to the contingency of opportunities, we should value and treat them with care. Everyone desires for success, but when it comes to the way to success, different people have different opinions. Some people think that opportunity is the first factor leading to success. Almost all successful people have come across some valuable opportunities. It should be noticed that opportunity won’t wait for you all the time. If we can’t notice and seize it, others do. The ways for different people to treat opportunities lead to different results. We must take advantage of opportunities when they come. That means we should be well-prepared all the time, then we can seize opportunities and achieve success. In my opinion, there are plenty of opportunities for everyone in the society, but not only those who are prepared adequately can make use of them. As the saying goes “God helps those who help themselves.” No matter whether there’s opportunity or not, what we should do is to work hard. Only in this way can we find and seize opportunity when it occurs.

My View on On-campus College Students’ Marriage

  It is a new thing thatChinese on-campus college students are legally allowed to get married before they complete their courses. Many peopleapplaudthis new developmentwhileothers haveexpressedtheir concern about this.

  Those whodisapprove ofthis new trend believe that college stundents will inevitably have less time and energy for their academic life. One common argument,however, for on-compus college students’ marriageis thata number of students do have a desire for an ideal marriage. Now that they havecome of age, theyare entitled tosuch happiness.

  Of the two views discussed above,I’m in favor ofthe former. My reason is that on-campus students areladen with academic tasks.If one gets married now, he or she has to work much harder than other students because they have to solve their financial problems at the same time. As a married couple, for instance, theyare supposed torent a room in or outside the university, which will naturallyadd to their spending.

正确答案：The famous saying goes that one is never too old to learn. It means learning is not only the business of school children. As long as you want to learn, it’s never too late to start.
There are many examples to show that learning is never too late. Florence Ross, the respectable lady in the passage once I read, earned her doctorate at the age of 82. She did not complain about her age, and she made it!
I am lucky that I can study in college and receive good education now. But it doesn’t mean that my education will come to an end with a college diploma in hand. Many things are awaiting me to learn and to discover. I’ll make learning my life-long pursuit.
