What would you like to say to the students who are not sufficiently appreciative of what they have now but idle away their time on campus? Write an essay of about 150 words with the tips given above.Its natural, and perhaps human, for people to feel overjoyed when given acknowledgement and honor. However, in Text B the author has more than just happiness to share with us about her success and honour. What is it then? Do you get the message the author tries to convey? Think about, for example, your admission to college, a success of some degree for you and your family. Did you receive support, help, and encouragement from your family members, teachers, and friends? When looking back on your journey to the college, what do you want to say to them? Write an essay of about 150 words to share your feelings with your classmates. Sample Essay for Task 1:Today, many college students are from single-child families. Growing up in such environments, they tend to take for granted what they have. Some even develop bad habits and character flaws such as self-will, lack of responsibility and selfishness. In my opinion, taking a listless attitude toward life is extremely harmful to them. With such a negative attitude, they fail to appreciate the advantages they enjoy. They waste away their precious time, seeking pleasure in running after pop stars or indulging in computer games. In the end, they may have to leave college without having acquired any useful skills or knowledge.Sometimes I think it is good for us to think more of the young people who are still struggling for their lives and education. Such an attitude would certainly impel us to cherish more our college life. And life would be more meaningful if we treat it with a gentleness, a vigor and keenness of appreciation.Sample Essay for Task 2:Being admitted to college was an important turning point in my life. I would never have been able to make it without the help and support of my parents, teachers and classmates.Throughout the time I was preparing for the entrance examination my parents were always there to back me up. They allowed me to make my own decisions about which major I wanted to pursue. Whats more, they had full confidence in me.I was lucky enough to have had fine teachers and kind classmates. My teachers were patient and competent to explain the problems I did not understand; my classmates helped me and encouraged me all the time. We shared our hopes and anxieties together. That was a memorable time in my life! I didnt achieve everything alone. I owe a lot to those who have helped me to get where I am.

Sample Essay:A team player is someone who can work well with other people in a team. But it is not enough just to get along with others. A true team player must be more positive and constructive than just following the herd; he or she must also be able to play an active part in decision-making.Our society demands team players because by gathering all our various strengths together, we can accomplish more in a shorter time. It is because of teamwork that most businesses are able to function properly.To become team players we must learn to compromise.
