1)
University Students Like Reading Newspapers in English

Dear Editor:

I am a student at Renmin University of China in Beijing. As a regular who goes to the university library＇s newspaper room, I have discovered that many students like reading newspaper in English, especially China Daily.

The reason that China Daily is popular among students is not difficult to explain. A major characteristic of China Daily is the conciseness of its articles. Most of the articles are brief, clearly written and informative. Many students are busy with their studies and don＇t have much spare time. However, by reading China Daily, readers can get up-to-date news about China and the world and enhance their reading capabilities at the same time and, more importantly, it doesn＇t cost them a lot of time. In this sense, China Daily is providing a sort of “fast-food” to its readers. Furthermore, China Daily also helps its readers improve their writing skills. For those students who find English compositions difficult, articles on China Daily serve as perfect examples.

Many fellow students told me that they had learned a lot from China Daily about China and the world. As a result they also improved their reading and writing and got high marks in English exams.

Yours Sincerely,

Lin Weiying

2) China＇s Most Famous Symbol in Need Of Help

Years ago, walking the Great Wall in the Beijing region was like no other experience in China. It was peaceful; there were no coke cans or mineral water bottles to spoil the view----it was quite simply the world＇ s most spectacular open air museum.

How things have changed! There are now cans and bottles, and sometimes much worse. While I used to spend most of recreational time climbing the Great Wall, I have found myself spending an increasing amount of time cleaning up the wall. In the last 18 months I have organized four Great Wall clean-up activities, mobilizing around 350 people to collect garbage. I ask myself, why is the Great Wall becoming such a dump?

Litter was not a problem at in the 1980s, because packagers of foods and drinks used traditional materials that were biodegradable or returnable. Now, as the market economy has expanded, consumption has boomed. In everyday life, plastic bottles, metal cans, foils and cellophane are widely used as disposable packaging materials. Increased mobility as the result of mushrooming private car ownership has also fueled the widespread use and abuse of disposable packaging.

Viewing this serpent of stone snaking across the mountains north 0f Beijing, I know that the Great Wall is the No 1 wonder of the world, a precious and unique cultural relic, a fragile wilderness. The Great Wall is in danger of becoming just a symbol, despoiled in reality. I hope that more people can start to show their love for the Great Wall in action.

3) Wealth and Happiness

Wealth has always been what some people long for. It is true that most of them try to acquire wealth by means of honest labor. Their efforts contribute to the welfare of the society and at the same time to the accumulation of their wealth, and hence to their happiness.

There is no doubt that wealth brings happiness, especially in the modern society. Various kinds of up-to-date household appliances, latest fashions and recreations make their appearance with each passing day. All this makes our life more comfortable and colorful. Therefore, without money we cannot turn admiration into reality.

But there are exceptions when wealth does not go hand in hand with happiness. Wealth may tempt weak-willed persons to be addicted to harmful habits, such as drug-taking and gambling, and result in their own ruin. Also, a person may lost his reason and go astray if he is entirely devoted to seeking wealth.

In my opinion, on no account can we identify wealth with happiness. I also believe that one should never rely only on wealth to achieve happiness.
