高中议论文范文: 习惯
摘要:千百年来,地球总被认为是方的,是平的,那么那些忠于习惯的人将永远也领略不到哥伦布到达美洲,麦哲伦环航地球的豪情。同样,要是没有达尔文的数十年艰苦的探索,没有他对上帝造人的怀疑,恐怕就将在教堂中手捧《圣经》来领悟生物的起源了吧!
这是一条千百年来束缚着中国人的枷锁!
这是一头吞噬了亿万个生灵的猛兽!
然而,这又是为许许多多人所信仰的至理。劈开他们的头颅,清晰可见的雕刻着两个大字习惯!
读书便是四书五经,重病便依《本草纲目》。要出门嘛,好,老规矩,请祭祀祖宗。
习惯嘛,这便是习惯,便是信条,根本不必问什么,你所供奉的祖宗是这样过的,你的祖父和父亲是这样过的,至于你自己嘛,好了,不必想了,你的早已成为一堆白骨的大仁大智的祖先已经为你安排好了,一切循例也就是了。自然,你会心宽体胖,这就是祖宗所赐予的福吧!
也许你的祖先们俱已消散,那么,也不妨为自己保持了长久的习惯沾沾自喜:饭前一支烟,饭后百步走。办事则可以翻翻以前的记录,照这样办,是不会出错了。这样也好,可以保持旺盛的精力在牌局上施展,而大可不必学傻瓜那样,吃力不讨好,人财两空。
这样的生活不知经历了多少年。如同一双魔爪,吞噬了无数人的心灵,养了一群似太上之忘情的废物。
然而死水也不会没有波澜,总是不断的会有人对这习惯产生疑问,想冲破这以千百个习惯织成的巨网。无数人失败了,被吞食干净。但也终于有些人勇敢地劈开荆棘,历尽千辛万苦,他们留下的,有鲜血和泪,然而也有喜悦开拓者的沾着眼泪的喜悦。
千百年来,地球总被认为是方的,是平的,那么那些忠于习惯的人将永远也领略不到哥伦布到达美洲,麦哲伦环航地球的豪情。同样,要是没有达尔文的数十年艰苦的探索,没有他对上帝造人的怀疑,恐怕就将在教堂中手捧《圣经》来领悟生物的起源了吧!
再设想一下,要是没有本世纪初胡适之、陈独秀、周树人、郭沫若等许许多多有志之士冲破旧中国数千年来传统的文言文的束缚,没有他们对新文化、新思想坚定的探索,现在中国的文学又会成为什么样子呢?
然而要抛弃旧的习惯,就不免会有牺牲。如第一个打破人心脏禁区的塞尔维斯,一心要向人们揭示行星运行奥秘的布鲁诺,以及为了探索放射性而过早逝去的波兰的玛丽?居里,丹麦的罗兹,美国的沃森。
但这与那些为习惯所埋葬的人们不同,这些先驱者的英名将永远长存,他们的墓碑将永不磨灭!
眼前,我仿佛看见:一盘巨磨碾着一颗颗心脏,在周而复始地转着,转着;一条崎岖蜿蜒的山道,盘旋着通向山顶,两旁却尽是先人留下的鲜血。 我愿保存我的心脏,以我的身去攀登,留下那血肉与先驱者相伴。 我愿习惯这个词永不存在!

议论文写作(Argumentative Writing)(10分)
Read the following two paragraphs with contradicting views, and write a passage on the issue. You should clearly state your opinion and explain the reasons for your opinion. You should write about 500 words.
Tablets are the ideal system of organization in schools. They are convenient, in which much information is stored in small sizes and kept together in one place, and cheap, as digital information is now becoming more affordable than print. As evolution continues to rock the modern world, digital devices will become more and more reliable. Someday, they will entirely replace print books, and hopefully, that day will come soon.
Many may argue that tablets are much more convenient than paper books. But not everyone shares this preference of tablets or finds them convenient. In fact, in a study conducted by Book Industry Study Group (BISG), it was found that 75% of college students preferred traditional textbooks in which they can highlight the key words and write notes. Also, some may suggest that it is cheaper to invest in tablets than textbooks. In fact, in a 2008 study of public schools in Kentucky it was estimated that the cost of textbooks and supplies totaled around $44 million. The cost per school was around $988 for textbooks and supplies. That is roughly the cost of only two tablets. To provide tablets to all the students in a school would be an enormous sum. Therefore, we may conclude that while tablets have their purposes, they should not replace the printed books used in schools.

Printed Book or E-book, Which Is to Succeed?
Since the beginning of human history, printed books have accompanied us for quite a long time. They have been used to pass on culture, knowledge and history from one generation to the next, and they have never been denied of their functions. In recent years, however, with the rapid development of e-books, many people voice that printed books are no longer useful, thus should be replaced by e-books. On the contrary, I hold the view that printed books should never be replaced. The reasons are as follows.
As printed books have played a glorious throughout history, they are mostly known as textbooks, on which there are printed articles, formulas for students to learn. Some of printed books are heavy, and not easy to carry, though, they are convenient for students to take notes and easy for them to review at any time when they open the book. But learners with e-books are impossible to write down notes on pages, so they may need extra notebooks during classes. What's more, there are already many versions of every kind of printed books, from which people can choose the one best suits their need, while only one version is accessible online for most of the time, and if readers want another version, they will be charged for extra fees, which, sometimes, even higher than a printed one.
Some people argue that printed books are a waste of trees and e-books are environmental-friendly. I don't agree. I believe that one won't throw a book away after
reading it, instead, most people choose to put it off the bookshelf and refer to it when necessary. In fact, it's a tradition to keep as many books at home as possible in a traditional Chinese family, because it shows that the family members are knowledgeable and intelligent and earns them respect from neighbors. Yet, I've also seen that in modern groups, especially among college students, second-hand books are in. Many students sell used printed books at very low prices, both maximizing the use of the book and realizing the mutual benefit of sellers and buyers.
Printed books, frankly speaking, are much cheaper compared to the money one has to pay for electronic devices in order to use e-books. For example, high quality products are expensive, which can be a burden to ordinary families. But once poor quality ones are broken, books will all disappear at once and they need requirements frequently, which, also means a large sum of money. In addition, with e-books, one will take much time to upload new systems and update new procedures so that the device can function properly and keep pace with the world.
Although e-books are becoming more and more popular, other problems like eyesight protection remain to be solved. Therefore, in this era of rapid development of science and technology, printed books, having survived for thousands of years, will continue to play an important part and succeed in the end."

Tablets Serves More for Students in School
Tablets are enjoying increasing popularity in school. One can always grasp shadows of tablets wherever he is, in classrooms or in the dining halls. Admittedly, the evolution of technology has rocked the world; however, there are indeed doubts on the growing vogue of tablets. Some people approve of them because of their convenience, others oppose and claim that students should use printed books and they will never be replaced. Nevertheless, as a significant progress made in digital time, tablets and E-reading are more likely favored by students and serve more in their school life.
Initially, tablets are more convenient than printed books. Other than just being a smaller-sized text, it is more of a portable database, in which one can not only read the whole content just as it is with the paper book, but also search for information about the background knowledge as well as the reviews, as Wi-Fi is more commonly used nowadays and tablets are able to connect to it. Also, for students who are eager to get the latest news or the new versions whether they are the requirements from the teacher or just their own interests, tablets provide with an access to every update while printed books fail to do so. Compared with a bag full of books that weighs more than 6 kilos in total, more students certainly tend to prefer to use the lighter tablets with more convenience.
In addition, electronic-reading is cheaper and that version of books is easy to preserve for really a long time. Other than just test books, most colleges require extra class materials (such as classic novels for an English class) and reference books, and the average cost for books and supplies for the 2012-2013 school year was about $1,200 at universities in the US, according to a report from the College Board. Although the price for books in China is much lower, it still counts greatly in students’
tuition fee. Compared with paper books we have to buy continuously, a tablet costs only for approximately $499, with free digital information or e-books with great price, which is cheaper in the long run.
Preservation is also problematic for paper books. It might be Okay if we are talking about a student or two; however, preservation of some specific books or historic records which are significant is important to schools. Proper handling and storage is essential to the preservation, not to mention a whole series of complicated packing and selection for places that is neither humid nor shady. However, books can be preserved in tablets easily without so many considerations. Librarians just have to create a database, which professors and students can have access to, and prepare for couple of computers or tablets for public use.
Admittedly, paper-reading has a long history and is accepted by most people; however, its negative impacts cannot be neglected, and the environmental problems it has brought about are definitely one of them, which have led to a high level of consumption and waste. According to a survey, nearly 4 billion trees worldwide are cut down each year, not to mention the air and water pollution. Also, few books will be recycled, which lead to a great amount of waste. However, the tablets can be used for quite a long time if the users use it properly, and the information can be update in time with lower cost.
The using of tablets in schools has really become a hit because of their convenience, abundant storage of information, and lower cost for information to be both read and preserved. In addition, it avoids the problem of waste and pollution paper book might cause, which not only benefit individuals, but also the society as a whole. More importantly, using tablets is a sign for the bloom of digital system of organizations in schools, and also the coming era of technology. Perhaps there is a day that all paper-books will be replaced by e-books stored in digital devices, and the storm of high-tech will blow almost everyone’s mind."

Nowadays there is a trend that digital devices are occupying an increasing number of market shares of educational business, a typical example of which can be tablets in colleges. Nevertheless, from my own perspective, tablets do not have advantages over paper books, which has also been proved by some studies. In fact, traditional textbooks possess a lot more merits than tablets in various aspects.
Initially, concerning the assistance to study, print books enable us to output what we have learned timely such as underlining the critical points and taking notes during the learning process. While with tablets, it is not convenient for us to write down our inspiration though they can store a large amount of information. Additionally, due to their multifunction, tablets will distract our attention more easily, which is fatal to a person’s study process. Such a typical phenomenon is that new games always spread faster through pads than any other devices, keeping the youths from concentrating on their study. Since the essence of study is the exchange and collision of ideas, paper books apparently weigh heavier than tablets for they can provide such a platform where students can place much more emphasis on learning. In terms of the investment, not only the cost but also the repair fees of tablets
are rather high. At the same time, with the software continuously being renovated, tablets set higher requirements on technology. For instance, schools usually face difficulties in collecting sufficient information and making effective management of so many of them in such a small device, which can only be dealt with by renewing the software. In brief, limited budget will restrict tablets’ popularization to a large extent while it can promise the paper books’ supply.
Another problem lies in the impact on health. There is no doubt that students’ loss of vision is closely attached to the exposure to lots of digital devices, one of which is tablet. Besides, it has been wildly accepted that the electromagnetic radiation from tablets is detrimental to our physical body. By comparison, print textbooks act as a more protective role in our study career because the unadorned paper will not do harm to us.
There is no denying that the invention of digital devices has brought a revolution to the study methods, converting people’s preference from conventional paper into convenient smart devices. However, it has to be identified that development is a process, whose basic responsibility is ameliorating living pressure and promoting life quality. We have taken a wide range of factors into account, only to find that traditional books have irreplaceable advantages not merely in pursuing the essence of learning but in maintaining healthy as well. Therefore, public introspection on how to balance technology and tradition should be aroused by this controversial issue. Fortunately enough, some people who foresee the disadvantages have also made attempt to keep themselves from too many digital products and eventually showed appreciation for such a healthy lifestyle.
It is we students who make the final decisions. Consequently, only when we make a better understanding of both tablets and traditional textbooks comprehensively can we truly reap the benefits from these two learning tools. Since what really matters is whether it can be helpful to our learning careers, I prefer paper books for the reasons presented above."
