4、alth conditions first and then act accordingly.”For anyone who has witnessed the disregard of crowds in China, the advice borders on comical. Chinese accidents and other public mishaps often garner lavish gawking but helpful intervention isnt as common. Last Sunday morning, an 88-year-old resident o

A court ruled in her favor and Peng was ordered to pay 40,000

9、 yuan (US$6,255) compensation.” (The case was later settled, but Peng was still liable for a portion of the legal fees.) A poll by the Peoples Daily, the state mouthpiece, found that nearly 90% of 2,425 people surveyed online would refuse to help an elderly person who had fallen down, lest they land

Earlier this year, a Chinese man stabbed his mother in the Shanghai airport with nary an intervention from Chinese

11、 onlookers. Eventually a foreigner dashed to help, but the Beijing-based Global Times ran an editorial headlined: “Heartless bystanders not solely Chinese problem.” The piece went on to describe a so-called “bystander effect” in which “Columbia University researchers tested the theory on unwitting s

The hardship of disability being no longer an obstacle on their journey, they support each other with firm hands and proceed steadily. The caption indicates tha

14、t they can travel north and south extensively with combined legs.It is apparent that the cartoonist aims at reminding us of the importance of cooperation in our daily life. Hardly can anyone achieve success in his career without the assistance of his colleagues and partners. As competition in all li

15、nes of work grows increasingly fierce, we must defeat our rivals through powerful team work. Take basketball hero Yao Ming for an example, he can slam the dunk smartly because all his teammates contribute more or less to his outstanding performance. Likewise, the successful launching of Change No.1

If we work separately, we will be confined to frail/ fragile minds and limited resources.On the basis of the analysis above, we may draw a conclusion that cooperation and team work really c

In addition, it is indispensable to train our kids frequently to interact smoothly with others in a team. As the proverb goes, unity is strength. (239 words

18、)【参考范文二】What the drawing is trying to portray is that two handicapped people are depending on each other while the crutch is left behind them. The picture seems to be humorous and preposterous but thoughtprovoking on second thoughts, which serves to remind us that cooperation is of utmost significan

19、ce and without it, the society we live in can not going smoothly.Undoubtedly, the purpose of the drawing is to illustrate that due attention has to be attracted to the fact that cooperation is of great value in reality. With more emphasis put on “building a harmonious society”, people in mounting nu

20、mbers begin to realize that we should serve each other. Obviously, cooperation is pervasive in nearly every field of our society, which, in a certain sense, should be given deep consideration. It is commonly acknowledged that each member of the team, during the game, must cooperate with his teammate

21、s, and otherwise, they would lose the game no matter how skillful each individual player might be.The vivid picture, to my mind, is urging us to cultivate the awareness of the public that helping each other has always been the traditional virtue of our nation. As the central task of our country is t

According to the words on the picture, the two may even plan to travel around the world.The cartoon is thoughtprovoking in that it highlights the importance of cooperation. Without cooperation, the two people

24、 have to walk with the help of crutches respectively; now by mutual support, they are able to walk like a normal person and travel the world. The theme of the cartoon is thus clearly shown. Obviously, cooperation is a good solution to challenging tasks nowadays. People have limitations; one always f

27、tween Virtual and Real WorldAs is illustrated in the drawing, separated individuals who enjoy the Internet accesses are connected with each other though the spider-web-like information super highway. But meanwhile, each of them is confined to a small cell and attached to the laptop before they can g

28、et into touch with others.At first sight, every one can chat, communicate and make friends with others by means of the powerful Internet links. It is extraordinarily convenient for Internet users to transfer information in various forms because people are just a click away. However, under the surfac

29、e of this amazing closeness created by the “cyber space” is the ever extending distance in reality. While people are indulging in the convenience and entertainment brought about by the Internet, sitting all day long in front of a screen all alone, they are virtually driving away their intimate famil

30、y, friends and real life. Quality time with parents is replaced by aimless chatting with a total stranger; space for hanging out and bonding with real life friends is roughly occupied by endless Internet games. Indeed, the Internet has greatly facilitated our communications and thus improved efficie

31、ncy in governments, business, and schools. Yet an inconvenient fact has emerged: at personally level, many people have got addicted to the Internet by immersing in the virtual space and shutting the real world out all together.Judging from all evidence offered，we may safely come to the conclusion th

32、at the Internet is both a blessing and a curse. It is up to the users to strike a balance between the merits and setbacks and make good use of the Internet resources to their favor.

33、ally acknowledged that the Internet, an entirely new way of communication, is becoming so popular nowadays that its difficult to imagine modern life without it. Undoubtedly, it exerts a profound effect on our life that it revolutionizes the way of peoples living and thinking.Definitely, the symbolic

34、 meaning of the picture subtly conveyed should be taken into deep consideration. To begin with, with the Internet, it is convenient and fast for people to get a variety of information and what they need to do is just to press key buttons. Whats more, the great utility of the Internet allow people wi

35、thin a company, across a nation or even around the world to work together. Finally, we can do almost everything via Internet in a long run. Specifically, we can conduct E-business, advertise our products, book an air ticket, buy and sell stocks, even hunt a new job through clicking the mouse. Nevert

36、heless, it is a two-edged sword as well and has its own negative effects. To illustrate, some people tend to spend hours on the Internet for the sake of relaxation and develop addictions. As a result, the public have an emotional distance sometimes and thus few communications in reality due to Inter

37、net addiction without self-restriction.From what have been discussed above, it is clear that with a personal computer and modem any individual can call up information about almost anything from almost anywhere and almost anytime on the Web. All in all, the Internet, an indispensable part in modern l

38、ife, has the power to connect people and, yet, to some extent, separate people in reality. 【参考范文三】The painter of this picture is really imaginative. According to his understanding of the real world, the human society is depicted as a cobweb through the Internet links. Just as spiders rely on the cob

39、web to prey on insects, so also the social members make use of the Internet to communicate with others. As shown in the picture, confined to homes or offices, each person sits in front of computer screens sending or receiving information from the world.Indicative of this picture is the decrease of f

40、ace-to-face communications. Consequently, although the society seems to be physically woven as a “cobweb” by the Internet, it is possible that social members will be separated from each other in the long run. Firstly, when people get accustomed to the convenience of the Internet, they would not both

41、er to make face-to-face contact with their friends and relatives. Secondly, with the increasing dependency on the Internet, more and more work can not be accomplished without the Internet; therefore, people will spend more time in front of computer screens and hence reduce the time in activities tha

42、t require face-to-face communication. In addition, many people make on-line friends and indulge in chatting through the Internet, which means that they will gradually keep away from their friends in real life.To conclude, while the Internet does provides a convenient network for social member, there

43、 is possibility that people will spend less time in face-to-face communications and therefore the Internet would bring us a separated world. In brief, we should balance the Internet communication with face-to -face. (258 words)【参考范文四】The past decade has witnessed an increasingly inseparable relation

44、ship between man and Internet. As is vividly depicted in the picture, within a stretching spider web many people are surfing on line, either to entertain themselves or to meet the works needs. Actually on-line visiting has become a routine activity in our everyday life. However, it seems rather iron

45、ic to present people separated from each other by the spider web when they attempt to communicate。The metaphoric and impressive portrayal has subtly revealed the duality of the relationship between man and Internet. The spider web undoubtedly serves as a symbol of Internet, both connecting people an

46、d isolating them from each other. On the one hand, there is no denying that Internet is currently one of the most efficient media used for interpersonal communication. As a college student, I get on line everyday to discuss news with other people on BBS, to study English by registering for web cours

47、es, to chat freely through e-mails with my friends. Being a veteran on-line shopper, I frequently bargain with sellers to purchase books at much lower prices. But on the other hand, a good many people admit that they are too much addicted to Internet to maintain face-to-face contact with their frien

48、ds and colleagues. Cyber-living resembles the experience of seeing disguised people behind a mask, maintaining distance between one another. Once indulged in the fictitious world, people feel reluctant to approach others and to concentrate on real life. Thats why some people have lost the skill of d

49、irect contact and get alienated from others。 Therefore, it is necessary for us to use Internet in a reasonable way and restrain from addiction. After all, Internet is invented to connect you and me, and to bring conveniences to our life rather than set a barrier to keep people beyond reach。2010年“文化火锅”【参考范文一】As is symbolically portrayed in the drawing, a hotpot is being served with a large variety of cultural ingredients melting in it.
