In the past three years the number of Chinese traveling abroad was on a steady rise. According to the statistics the number increased from 5.2 million in 1997 to more than 30 million in 2006. I think there are at least three reasons to account for the above mentioned increase. First and foremost the changes arc primarily concerned with the income of Chinese. They are better off and can afford to travel abroad. What's more they have a lot to do with the development of the travel industry in China. More and more travel agencies are attracting more people to join in their tours abroad. Last but no the least the changes are closely related to our policy of opening up to the outside world. From what has been discussed so far it is obvious that the increase in the number of Chinese traveling abroad is of great concern of our life. It reflects the improvement of our living standards and the development of our economy.The Increase in the Number of Chinese Traveling Abroad Foreign trips for Chinese tourists began in 1997 and since then the trend of Chinese traveling abroad is going up these years.

Many colleges and universities have expanded their enrollment since 1998. The reasons for the expansion are as follows. Firstly they want to keep up with the need of the job market to produce more qualified people to take up the jobs. Secondly the expansion has entitled many high school graduates to the right of receiving higher education. Last but not least it can raise the intellectual standards of our nation. However studies show that the trend to expand has brought about many problems. For instance the teaching facilities and accommodation capacities of many colleges and universities are limited and are unable to meet the demand of an cvcr-incrcasing number of the newly enrolled students. On the other hand the average quality of the freshmen is declining. In the long run hunting for a job will be a tough thing for the graduates and that will inevitably exert much pressure on the prospects of employment. In spite of all this I am still confident that the expansion of enrollment is of great benefit to our society and is a good thing. With the development of our national economy the problem as mentioned above will be solved if proper measures are taken.Is the Expansion of Enrollment a Good Thing?

It means that success involves persistent work but does not imply that we are to exert ourselves around the clock without food drink or sleep. The true meaning of diligence is the careful use of one's time for the purpose of success or to work persistently without wasting time. Some people believe in luck. This is a serious mistake. If there is really any luck at all it will never come to a lazy person. If a farmer plows his field one day and then remains idle for the rest of the season the best of luck will not bring him anything. There would be no harvest for him at all. Those are clever who understand the importance of diligence and make it their habit. It is they who are on the right way to success. There are also people who always think that luck is more decisive in bringing about success and therefore there is no need for working hard. But they fail to realize that diligence is the key and only diligence will bring them luck and success.Diligence Is the Key to Success Diligence is the key to success.

Some people are tempted to make money in an illegal way. Bombarded by clever advertisements a consumer tends to buy what he or she doesn't actually need. Students are tempted to indulge themselves in computer games so much that they give up their studies. To pass the exams they turn to cheating tricks on tests. Yielding to temptation leads to corruption. In many cases greed for money is the root of evil. We have read many tragic stories about how people become the slaves of temptation. A good citizen turned into a robber because he could not resist gambling. A promising government official ended up in jail because he took bribes from profit- hungry business people at the cost of their bright career. Temptation may ruin a person a family or even ruin a company or a government. Its something that we must be always on our guard. Most important of all we should develop a right philosophy of life that is honesty is the best policy. And we should also bear in mind that in the world there are still other things th
