Classmate conflicts among senior middle school students are often heard on campus over recent years. These conflicts make the excitement of campus life grow grey and have bad effects on both their living and learning.
Classmate conflicts often rise from daily tiny things such as space where to store books or notes. When personalities don’t mix, the specifics can tear classmates apart and sometimes even lead to serious conflicts. Besides, the fact that classmates hold different attitudes towards certain issues is another factor causing these conflicts. Classmate conflicts are harmful and need to be settled. Though many people think that school discipline can soften the conflicts, I believe learning to be tolerant with each other can play a more constructive role because it teaches students flexibility and the art of compromise. Meanwhile, communication contributes to the solution to this problem since many of these conflicts result from misunderstanding.
7.保护传统文化
要求:某中学生英文报就“保护中国传统文化”为主题举行英语征文活动。你阅读了上述文章后,准备给该报投稿,稿件内容包括: 1.以约30个词概括以上短文内容。
2.然后以约120个词谈谈你的观点,并包括以下要点: (1)保护中国传统文化的重要性;
(2)列举1-2个你所知道的国家或当地政府文化保护的事例; (3)谈谈你对文化保护的建议。
Protect Traditional Chinese Culture
The passage mainly tells us the importance of protecting traditional Chinese culture, which is challenged or facing extinction because of the developing society and changing lifestyle. Besides,
China is nationwide sparing no efforts to do it.(36 words)
The protection of national and folk culture is of great significance to Chinese cultural diversity and also to the harmonious development between local economic and social development. It is reported that the Guangdong government pays special attention to protecting Chaoju(潮剧), a local drama born in Chaozhou in the eastern Guangdong province.
In my opinion, some measures should be taken to protect traditional culture effectively. To start with, we should make a law to regulate the society’s performance. Besides, we should draw more people’s attention to it, for the more they know about the importance of culture protection, the stronger the support we can get from the public. In a word, it is high time for us to treasure and develop our own valuable culture.

Li Hua 【参考范文】 Dear editor,
As we all know, homework plays an important role in Chinese education. Students do homework to strengthen what they've learnt in class and meanwhile prepare for the new lessons.
But too much homework is really a heavy burden for Chinese students. They have little time to take physical exercise and some wear thick glasses because exercises take up most of their spare time. They also suffer punishments if work is done badly or late. After years of bad homework experiences, some of them lose interest in study and hate school life.
So I think homework is necessary, but it needs to be well designed and shouldn't take up all the students' spare time. Only in this way can the students find pleasure in their homework and become more interested in study. Best wishes. Yours, Li Hua

I'm a senior high school student named Li Hua. Now many students have iPads and think it's a fashion to use them. 参考范文: Dear Editor',
I'm a senior high school student named Li Hua. Now many students have iPads and think it's a fashion to use them. U sing an iPad, we can listen to music, download a lot of learning materials and read them on the screen. Apparently, it's helpful to our study, especially to our English listening.
Some students, however, bring their iPads to the classroom and listen to music without earphones, which makes the teacher and other students greatly annoyed. Some of them even waste precious time in class playing video games.
In my opinion, as students, we should make good use of iPads to help achieve academic success. The classroom is a place for students to study, and thereforeconcentration is awfully needed for us to learn our lessons. Furthermore, the school should make a rule to guide the students to use iPads in a proper way. Yours sincerely, Li Hua
10.食品安全
我们的身体健康与食品安全息息相关,但现在我们却面临越来越多的食品问题如染色馒头、毒奶粉。请用英语写一篇100-120词的短文,简要分析食品问题形成的原因并提出相应的解决措施。
染色馒头the industrial dye of steamed bun 毒奶粉the notorious milk powder
It is universally acknowledged that the safety of food is closely related to our health. As the famous saying goes, “we are what we
eat.” However, things often go contrary to our wishes since we are faced with a series of food safety problems at present, ranging from the industrial dye of steamed bun to the notorious milk powder. There are several reasons for this severe problem. First and foremost, many manufactures produce fake food of poor quality in order to get higher profits. In addition, the relevant laws and regulations are imperfect and even ineffective. Last but not least, the public especially customers from poor families, are not alert enough to the safety of food.
In view of the seriousness of the problem, effective measures must be taken to improve the situation. Firstly, it is essential that relevant laws and regulations on food safety should be enforced. Secondly, the relevant department should attach more importance to supervising监督 the manufacturers. Also, the public should be trained to be alert to food quality, believing our efforts will make an enormous difference. Only by taking these actions can the problem be coped with successfully in the nearest future. 11.节约
