Craze for National Civil Servant Test.
1. 当前，越来越多的人参加公务员考试。
2. 产生这一现象的原因。
3. 我对该现象的看法。
In modern society, the number of people taking part in the national servant test has increased dramatically. On the one hand, college graduates are busy in preparing for such examination. On the other hand, some people who have already worked for a couple of years also join in this team.
The reasons for this phenomenon can be listed as follows. Firstly, in recent years, it is hard for college students to find satisfactory jobs after graduation due to the enrollment expansion(扩招) of universities and global economic recession(经济危机，不景气). Secondly, public servant is a comparatively stable profession in China, with high social position and such potential profits as social security(社会保险) and retirement benefits（退休福利）. Thirdly, it seems that a few people consider the examination as a springboard(跳板) to greater power and a short-cut to success in career.
As a matter of fact, this practice reflects many social problem, which we must respond to in a thoughtful and productive way. For one thing, our government should take some feasible(切实可行的) actions to ease the situation. For another, students may be encouraged to strike off on their own to have more control over their careers. All in all, only by every field’s efforts can we reduce the negative effects.

Which is important: Competition or cooperation?
1. 有人认为竞争重要， 有人认为合作重要；
2. 陈述不同观点的原因；
3. 我的观点。
When it comes to the issue of competition or cooperation, different people have different opinions. Some argue that competition is important. While others maintain that cooperation is of great significance.
Those who hold the first opinion believe that competition had got a free ride(普遍的，流行的) in our social life, such as hunting for a job or playing a game. On the one hand, without competitive notion, it is impossible for us to win a place in the world. On the other hand, competition is one of the motive forces（动力） for the development of individuals and society. In contrast, those who hold the second view think that we can seldom compete without cooperation. For one thing, a good cooperation with others facilitates（有助于） us to make a success. For another, the spirit of team work is the source of power, and fosters(培养) our social abilities.
In my opinion, I stick to both sides of a coin because nothing is to be carried to extremes. As a result, only competition together with cooperation can help us dramatically to achieve out goals.

Diploma and Competence
1. 现在， 越来越多的人参加研究生入学考试以获得高学历。高学历意味着高能力吗？
2. 试论证这一问题。
3. 我的看法。
At present, there are still some people who are wedded to the belief（坚信） that high diploma equals to high ability and profound knowledge. For example, the number of people attending the enrollment examination(入学考试) of graduate study has been increasing greatly. As a matter of fact, high diploma can not have a final say in one’s competence. There are a dozen of reasons behind this argument.
For one thing, competence is a comprehensive（综合的） combination of schooling, experience and flexibility, and diploma is only validation of the education one is supposed to receive. For another, there is always a gap between theory and practice, and without proper application of knowledge into practice, diploma accounts for nothing. Last but not the least, if not given the opportunity, one with high diploma may never show his or her ability.
All mentioned above tell us that diploma can not decide everything and fully reflect one’s ability. Therefore, we are in a position to develop our comprehensive competence and attach importance to the activities of putting book knowledge into social practice.

The Problem of energy Shortage
1. 目前能源短缺问题严重，其原因是……..
2. 如何解决能源短缺问题。
3. 我的看法是…….
With the rapid development of economy, there arises a problem of energy shortage, to which many factors may contribute. Firstly, energy is non-renewable(不可再生的). Secondly, the present waste of energy is deadly serious in industrial and personal consumptions(个人消费).
It is high time that we took effective measures to solve the energy shortage. First of all, governments are in a position to shoulder up the responsibility(肩负起责任) to exploit more energy resources. Besides, vigorous policies must be adopted to conserve energy. For example, a daylight saving system(夏令时制) can be used. Finally, everyone should embrace the notion of energy-saving and live a low-carbon life. Only through these ways can we sloe down the strain on energy resources.
From my point of view, energy shortage will endanger the survival of mankind. What we must do is to change improper consumption habits and develop alternative energy resources(开发可替换能源).
