In order to get a suitable occupation, the high diploma is essential. In addition, an increasing number of people, especially employers, are becoming much more concerned about the significance of knowledge than they were. Because with great knowledge, people can make a lot of unpredictable fortunes, which will be profitable to both individuals and the society. Last but not least, further study does not only offer students knowledge printed in books, but offer them more opportunities to develop their abilities in other fields. Therefore, if appears that students with further study are superior to those simple graduates.
As far as I’m concerned, I’m firmly for the choice of further study. Because books can enrich myself and I’ll become more mature with further study.

PS: I know you may feel confused when reading this article. This is a composition assigned by my English teacher. She showed us the chart on the blackboard and I didn't get it. And the reason why I upload it is just to make sure if there are any grammar errors and to want to know the places that'll be improved. Thanks for your reading and corrections!

They point out the fact that people have found staying with the same company for a lifetime seem as outdated as the typewriter when faced with rapidly changing techonology. Moreover, incomes continue to climb with the number of degree held. So it goes without saying that going to college is a wise move.
Other people, on the contrary, hold the quite opposite opinon. For them, going back to school is only a waste of time without any gains, let alone the lifelong education! To make matter worse, lifelong education is really silly in eyes of many people and it tends to cause irony from our friends.
As far as I’m concerned, I firmly support the former idea. I think it’s essential to keep going forward for our own competitiveness. We have to stay conversant with the technology. Though learning while working seems to be a bittersweet occasion, we can learn to let all the negativity go in one ear and out the other. A college not only offers a medium by which we can get a degree, but opens up a brand new world we’ve never seen. Just as a saying goes: “It’s never too old to learn.”

To begin with, a majority of students always hold the idea that the college is the paradise where they can enjoy themselves as much as they want and therefore they lack long run definite goals in their lives. While to some others, difficulties of changing majors also lead to students’ discontent about current situation to some extend. The reason why they live such decadent lives is just to escape from the reality. Last but not least, the students are anxious to acquire the knowledge they think they need to make a buck, but they aren’t really interested in education for education’s sake. As a result, they gradually form a habit of getting by exams by cramming at the last minute.
From what has been discussed above, it’s obvious that nothing is more important than changing college students’ lifestyle to a positive one and taking a correct attitude towards study. As college students, it is high time we set a high goal and make plans step by step towards it. And we are also aught to maintain optimistic whatever setback we may encounter. I’m sure both proposals are sound and well-grounded as well.

I may suffer from homesickness along with the vile environment, but it will be better worth doing than that of staying wasting a whole holiday eating and sleeping at home.

They could hardly believe their eyes and spoke highly of them. Additionally, I seem to look better owing to those dresses. Perhaps the next time going shopping, I will pay more attention to clothing styles.

Thank God, the weather forcast says that there will be rain these days and meanwhile the temperature will also reduce by 2-3 degrees.
While the rain is coming in the near future, the sun will still be shining like a burning fire in the tomorrow morning. All I need to do at present is just to wait patiently for the rain while praying. May God bless me !!!

People prefer plastic bags to paper ones when going shopping because they are not only cheap but reusable, which is possibly less damage to the environment. But is it true ?
A plastic bag are mostly discarded once people gets home, then there are 3 possible situations happening on it. First, the plastic bag has been in other places before they are taken to landfills and somehow is floating on the sea, As a result, marine animals unluckily recognize it as food and eat it ! Second, the bag makes its way to landfills but is blown away before getting buried. Therefore, it has to continue its similar trip to the former one. If the bag is indeed lucky, it may have the third option: be wrapped in lager plastic bags and stay still in landfill. Still, the plastic is harzardous and can also make its may into the environment. To make matters worse, few places can hold trash after certain years and we may even live on top of piles of plastic bags due to the lack of the land.
For the sake of those animals as well as the environment, we'd better not use a bag at all or bring our own cloth bags. But if we must, just use the paper ones.
