From the above analyses, it is not difficult to get the conclusion that grades encourage students to
learn. Grades give students the stress and make them compete with each other so that they must
study and work hard to succeed.

Almost in every modern society, grades play an import role in assessing students' academic
ability.There are all kinds of tests to winnow out weak students. Knowledge itself is so complicate
and vast, each one of the test usually can't cover every aspect of it. So I wonder whether grades
can really encourge students to learn.
The basic reason why I disapprove of the title statement lies in the belief that grades usually don't
have positive impact on student who is strong or weak alike. Take the example of student who has
high grades: If Tom got good grades in the class, normaly he can't feel conceited. This situation
certainly won't lead him into finding some blind spots or weak points in his study. And he won't
realize that may be just his good memorizatation helps him a lot or this kind of test suits him well.
Let's us look another example: Suppose Johnny isn't good at memorization, but he is at home with
analyzation and deduction. Unfortunately, he got poor grades in tests facilitate memorization. One
can foresee what harm will bring to him due to the poor grades. In all these cases, the grades play
a negative role in encourging students to learn.
Most important of all, the grades usually a convenient way of assessing a student's academic
ability. But it is by no means a scientific one. Teachers can't determine from the grades whether
the student is hardworking(diligent) or out of cram. The tests given to all students regardless of
their individual's character traits, just like force everyone to wear shoes of same size. Famous
educationist Confucius said two thousands years ago: "Teach students in accordance of their
aptitude". Our world is a colorful world, so should be our educational world. Grades especially
poor grades will frustrate greatly potential successful students to learn. It will give them a flase
impression that their intelligence may be inferior to other students.The worst thing about poor
grades is that it may have repercussions in a underachiever's heart when all his fellow students and
teacher have long forgotten. In fact, the potential talent of a student will be strangled by those

poor grades. A real pity to the student himself and the society.
Last but not the least, there is some advantage in taking grades as a tool to evaluate students'
academic performance. As in my humble opinion, they should be combine with other scientific
methods to encourge students to gain knowledge but not solely focus their energy on how to win
high grades. After all, it is the knowledge that it is power, not the grades.

A lot of people claim that marks in tests encourage students to learn. I agree with this statement,
because examinations are a good way for a student to review what students have learned; test
scores are a standard measurement for students’ learning ability and knowledge level; and the test
system can benefit their future.
First of all, tests are important for students’ learning. Attending classes is not enough for students
to learn the subjects no matter how carefully they listen to what teachers say. They need
examinations to review the lessons. In most cases, grades or marks are the only means by which
TWE Essays 131/292
131
teachers measure students’ learning ability and learning progress. Therefore, grades encourage
students to study for examinations, and it is good system for them to learn the subjects.
Secondly, test scores are a standard measurement for students’ learning ability and knowledge
level. Most people would agree with this, therefore universities all over the world take test results
as a standard measurement to give admission to new students, to offer fellowships, and to decide
whether to grant a student graduation. High school teachers use test results as a means to evaluate
the effects of teaching, and students’ learning progress. By test scores, teachers also know each
individual student’s ability to learn.
Thirdly, test results can stimulate a student to work hard on his courses. The testing mechanism
encourages students to work hard in order to achieve a better result; they will devote more time
on study, and develop a "never give up" spirit. This will not only benefit their study, but also teach
them a truth, that everyone needs constant learning and hard working in order to be useful to this
society. Students who have developed such learning habit and never give up nature will not only

have good performance in schools, but can also superior to others in other aspects; for example,
such natures are important factors even after finishing schools. I believe most students understand
the importance of these qualities and impacts on their life; therefore they know how important it is
to work hard and try to achieve a better score.
In conclusion, marks can stimulate student to learn, and good marks can give them advantages in
going to a good university and finding a good job. Therefore I strongly support the statement that
marks can encourage students to learn.

The use of computer is increasingly popular in modern society. Some people think that the
computer makes life more convenient and easier because they can compile documents, buy goods
through the Internet and do other works on the computer. Nevertheless, in my opinion, the
computer makes life more complex and stressful. There are many instances supporting my
opinion.
Before the computer was invented, people only need to learn the knowledge of mathematics,
physics, chemistry and so on. However, today people have to learn how to operate the computer,
to use a variety of software and if the computer does not work, people have to learn how to repair
it. People have to learn not only the knowledge of software but also that of hardware. No ending
learning makes people exhausted and their life more complex.
The computer also makes life more stressful. The society in which we live is called "information
society& quot ;. Thanks for the development of the computer, the rhythm of life are increasingly
rapid. The business men has so many meetings to attend, so many e-mails to deal with that they
have no time to have his lunch. Some students have to work late on the computer to do the
homework at night. There are more and more people struggling from the nervous sickness and
complaining the "busy life".
The rapid development of the computer makes people feel stressful, too. The new generation of
the software and the hardware, the update of them, all of these make people have to pay more and
more time and money on their computers.
Although the computer has become an indispensable part of our life, it can be concluded from the

above statements that the computer makes life more complex and stressful.

Some people say that computers have made life more complex and stressful, but I totally disagree.
In my opinion, computers have really made our lives easier and more convenient in
communicating, getting informed and doing research work, if you have known how to work with a
computer.
The e-mail service and Internet based on computer make us communicating with others much
easily and conveniently. In the past, we have to write letters or meet in person in order to
communicate with others. The mails seem to take forever to arrive and meeting in person means
to put out a lot of efforts. Now, the e-mail lasts only a few seconds to send and to receive and we
can always meet new people even foreigners in chat room whenever we set up our computers. It
really makes our socializing easier.
The news on the Internet is being broadcasted 24 hours everyday and tailored to your specific
interests. You can always connect your telephone and modem with a computer to read them.
Listening to radio or watching television can be informed with what are happening around you
conveniently too, but just on the computer can you easily read the specific news in which you are
interested without having to buy newspapers. So, up to now, it is the most convenient way to read
news at home.
Besides, it is very convenient and much easy to do research work with a computer turning on.
You can save your work on computers too easily more than just typing a few letters, no matter
what your work is, even audio or video data. You can also type a few keys to print them out
neatly. Also, you can search whatever materials you want without the trouble of looking for books
or magazines in libraries.
Some people think that computers have made life complex and stressful. They may not be very
familiar with computers or do not know how to work with a computer efficiently. It does not
matter. Only after a few weeks of training, they can probably easily enjoy the convenience of

computers in socializing, reading news and doing research job.

Some people believe that computers provide easier and more convenient lives for them. In their
opinion, computers help them surf internet and share information. They may communicate
directly by E.mail. But others hold that computers have made life more complex and stressful and
they point out that computers bring many bad effects to human beings, such as information
security problem because of hacking attack and environmental pollution because of irradiation. As
far as I concerned, I prefer the first opinion rather than the second view.
My opinion comes from following three aspects. First of all, computer made life more efficient
than before. For example, people might access websites, gain a lot of valuable information and
contact each other around the world. Secondly, computer made life more relax and easier.
Computers provide varity kinds of games and people could enjoy and relax from them everyday.
Finally, compute help people solve many complicated problem by software, such as investment
and finance. Therefore, people’s life become more simple and convenient.
TWE Essays 133/292

However, just as what other people say that computers give us some negative effects in the
meantime. For example, Irradiation does harm for our bodies and eyes, so we can not made
people seat too long in front of computers. Hacking is a really trouble, and we are supposed to
enhance computer control and technology.
In general, computers give people an easier and convenient life. Although there exists some bad
effects of computers as mentioned above. We are supposed to do our best to solve the problems
and pay more attention on their good effects. I believe that our society will benefit more from
them in the future.

Nowadays some may hold the opinion that computers have made life easier and more convenient,

but others have a negative attitude; they say that computers have made life more complex and
stressful. As far as I am concerned, I agree that computers have brought more advantages than
disadvantages to our life. My arguments for this point are listed as follows.
One of the primary causes is that computers have improved the quality of life in our society. They
have brought to us more conveniences than ever before: whether we book a plane ticket, arrange
a travel to foreign countries, or hook up a telephone line, with the help of computers and modern
technologies, they can be done in a few minutes by simply a phone call or a few key strokes; we
will not have to run from one place to another, and wait for thousands of years before we can get
the services we want.
There is a further more subtle point we must consider. Because computers can make use of more
personal details about people, companies can provide customers with more individualized service
than before. Take booking for a plane ticket for example, as soon as the operator input our name
and telephone number into the computer, the system can retrieve our information from the
database, and it will analyze our previous traveling patterns and habits, and decide the best fair,
airline, traveling time and seating for us. The computer can also arrange accommodations after we
arrive at the destination. All these can be done in just a few seconds.
What is more, computers give people more convenient access to useful information and services.
Nowadays computers and internet is ubiquitous in every corner of our world. We use computers
in libraries and public agencies to check up for useful information and the books we need.
Furthermore we access internet or CD-Rom to get whatever information we want. Before
traveling to a new place, we can check on the computer what the place looks like, what spots are
must-sees, and how we can get there. We can get information from the internet on how to get a
drivers license, how to write an article on a topic, and even take simulation tests on a specific
subject. The computer is such a great learning and information tool!
Recognizing the fact that computer is so indispensable to our daily life, we can safely conclude
that computers have made life easier and more convenient for us.

There are a lot of views whether the best way to travel is in a group led by a tour guide. Different

people has different viewpoint. In my opinion, a group led by a tour guide is the best way to
TWE Essays 134/292
134
travel. The argument for this view goes as follows:
In the first place, there are many advantages when people travel in a group. First, people will not
feel boring in a long trip. People can talk, laugh and make joking like a big family. Second, the
group will help you a lot when you have any emergency. The people in the group could help you
figure out the awkward situation that will be unimaginable when you travel alone. Third, with the
group discount, such as the discount for airplane ticket, the hotel, and the admission ticket,
travelers can save a lot of money when they use the group discount.
In the second place, there are many advantages too when people travel led by a tour guide. The
tour guide will arrange all the details about the trip in advance. The traveler need not worry about
where to find the hotel, where to rent the car, and how to find the direction. It will make the trip a
little bit easy. Another advantage is that led by a tour guide will save much time than traveling
alone. With the professional knowledge, tour guide will make the smartest schedule. I would
never forget that one of my friend, a city tour guide in the Shanghai, China, said that she can lead
traveler to visit the whole city by one day which people should spend two or three days to finish
it.
In conclusion, there are many advantages when people travels in a group led by a tour guide, such
as save money, save time, do not feel boring, and is easy to take care of. Therefore, I strongly
agree that the best way to travel is in a group led by a tour guide.

No doubt,I do strongly advocate this idea that the best way to travel in a group led by a tour
guide. There are numerous reasons why I agree with this opinion, and I would in here explain a
few of the most imporant ones.
At first, I can get many conveniences if I travel in a group led by a tour guide. I don't worry about
some things such as residence, transportation, and eating. During the whole journey, I can
completely enjoy the pleasure of traveling without being disturbed by some trivial things.

Another reason why I agree with this idea is that traveling with a group people is more enjoyable
than traveling alone. We can share with the beautiful view each other and can express our feeling
each other. In addition, if I encounter certain difficulities, there will be many people to help me.
So, this traveling pattern will also more safe.
The last reason is that a tour guild will let us learn more knowledge about where we will go
because we aren't familiar with that place. Maybe due to our ignorance, we will miss many
interesting places without a tour guild.
Understanding the reasoning above, it is quite safe now to say: the best way to travel is in a group
led by a tour guild.

Some people may think that the best way to travel is in a group led by a tour guide, but it is just
where I differ from those people. I think the best way to travel is to travel alone. If I travel alone,
I can enjoy the pleasure of meeting new people, trying new things and totally relaxing. However,
TWE Essays 135/292
135
if I am to travel with a group led by a tour guide, this pleasure seems impossible.
Travel alone means that I can meet new people more freely. I can meet not only the other
travelers, but also the local residents whenever I travel to a new place. If the person I want to
meet is not available at the present time, I can even reschedule my time. But if I travel in a group
led by a tour guide, I have to stick to the schedule. I have to take other people’s time into
consideration. That means I will lose a lot of chances to meet new people.
Travel alone also means I can try new things personally. I can go anywhere I want and do
something different from my lifestyle. However, if I travel in a group, the place where I go and the
things that I will deal with are all arranged and fixed in advance. I have no choice but to follow.
That will be miserable for me as a traveler.
When I finally mange to take a travel, I want to relax myself totally. Work is too hard to do and I
am really eager to have an enjoyable break. However, I am in a group and I have to stick to the
travel schedule, to consider the other group members’ feelings, to go wherever the tour guide

leads to. That seems just like I am on my duty at work again. I cannot really get relaxation.
I always prefer to travel alone. I would like to meet a lot of different people, experiencing new
things on my way in traveling. I think that only scheduling my travel time more casually can make
me relax completely. Would not that be the only purpose of traveling? I would like to encourage
you to travel alone too. In any case, do not travel in a group led by a tour guide.

There are basically two ways of traveling: traveling in a group led by a tour guide, or traveling
independently. There are advantages and disadvantages of the both. By traveling in a group, you
will enjoy the companionship, comfort and safety of group travel, and learn more information
about the place from a tour guide; while traveling independently, you can maintain the freedom,
flexibility and individualism. Some people say that for most people, the best way to travel is in a
group led by a tour guide. I agree with this opinion.
Firstly, you will enjoy the companionship when traveling in a group. Usually a tour group consists
of around 20 people. These people travel together, eat together and stay in the same hotel. During
the trip, you can always find someone you like to talk with, and you will never feel lonely as when
you are travelling alone.
Secondly, you will enjoy the comfort and safety of group travel. When traveling in a group,
everything is pre-arranged by the travel agent, and you do not have to worry about booking a
ticket, finding a hotel, decide what places to visit, and so on. In the meantime, as you are not
preoccupied with arranging the trip by yourself, you may find yourself concentrate more on the
trip itself and enjoy it more. In addition, it is much safer to travel in a group. Your personal safety
is always taken cared of by others.
Thirdly, you can learn more information about the place from a tour guide, and not worrying
about missing an important spot. The tour guide will take you to each spot that should be visited,
and give you detailed information about the place you visit. You never have to find information
about the places you are going to through the Internet or buy a book from the bookstore.
Traveling in a group can save you time and money on information searching.
In conclusion, there are many advantages of traveling in a group. Although for young people,
