The Young Want to Be Leaders篇一:六级翻译

出游的方式有很多种,有的人为了节省时间乘坐飞机,有的人选择较为舒适的火车,还有的人情愿乘坐拥挤的巴士。但你们有没有想过自行车旅行也是一种不错的方式呢!

作文题目:

There are many ways of traveling. People may travel by plane if they want to travel far and reach their destination in a shorter time. It is the most comfortable but expensive way. Most people travel by train because it is a less expensive way but the compartments are cramped and stuffy. Bus journey is a cheaper way but it is spent on narrow, bumpy roads which are crowded with traffic. Trips by ship may be the cheapest and most comfortable way but it takes too much time. I like traveling by bike. I can set out when I like and stop when I like. I can go wherever I like so that I can enjoy delightful spots rarely visited by other travelers. When I feel tired, I sit down by the bike and have a good rest. Besides, I can save much money for tickets and much time in waiting for the train or bus. I can cover more places by riding a bike than going on foot. Traveling by bike is good to health. It is really a sort of good exercise to strengthen one's muscles and to test one's will. Moreover, it brings no pollution to the air. So it helps to clean the atmosphere.

The Young Want to Be Leaders

An online survey conducted by the China Youth Daily shows that most young people (66.6%) want to be a leader, whether they serve in private companies or public sections* Only 4.8% say they are not interested in being a leader. This is especially comnionplace among people bomia the 70s and 80s.

Some people say it is a good phenomenon that the young want to be leaders. After all, it

shows that the young have great ambitions which will inspire them to work hard. Others, however, think otherwise. They argue that it only reveals so many young people are chasing fame 如d fortune, a sign that is bad for the healthy development of the young and the whole society.

Peisonallyj I believe the saying ICHe who doesn’t want to be a general isn’t a good soldier' And, it’s encouraging that we still have many young people who seek power from a mere view of the good of the people. So, I dcm^t think it anything wrong for the young desiring to have a position in the lead as long as they don’t eye it as a shortcut to fame and fortune.

How to improve the graduates’ mental health

Graduates’ mental health has been playing an increasingly important role in the daily life. Actually, it is widely accepted that it has gained growing popularity among persons in all walks of life. However, in the season of graduation, it’s reported some cases of self-killing or mental disorder still happened.

Obviously, graduates face various kinds of pressure. When graduates confront with great pressure, the best method is to communicate with friends or family members to unburden the feelings. And the universities and colleges should also pay more attention to graduates’ mental health and take effective action such as providing psychological service for students helping them to deal with mental problems. From the perspective of parents, they should care more about their kids’ mental health, too. Though the parents cannot write the dissertation for the graduates, nor

can they find a job, they can communicate with their kids and help them to figure out the reasons for the difficulties.

From the factors mentioned above, we may safely draw the conclusion that we can free ourselves from mental illness by taking certain precautions. For example, if you have pains or puzzles in mind, finding a friend to express is a good way to release pressure. Certainly, there is no doubt that further attention will be paid to this issue.

Hiring Celebrities as Mating Professors

Via Internet or other means of mass media,it is commoE to team that some super stars are employed as a guest professor of a universityT Whether it is helpful to hire personages for a university's development on hot debate from the very beginning.

There are two voices: Some people think that stars’ social influence can do good to the enrollment of a university and raise its social degrees of approval. Besides, universities should open to society and take advantage of various social resources,inclusive of celebrities1 life experience and struggling adventure. However, others hold the opposite viewpoint. They think that a professor under a star's name is just ai) advertising stunt, and has no practical meaning to the development of the imiversity. It also diverts students* attention from their academic study. In my view, just as a coin has two sides, the inviting of celebrities as guest professors has both good and bad efFecU. Thus I think colleges should evaliiate the possible results thoroughly, and their choices should be based on the improvement of teaching standards and students, development. Universities should also take the features of their relevant disciplines into consideration before hiring some celebrity as a visiting professor

Limiting tbe Buying of Cars or Not?

Beijing has placed strict restriction on the number of newly purchased car in the city and the policy bas sparked heated discussion. Some people support the policy, saying it,s a powerful method to cope with the severe traffic congestion in the capital. With cars increasing drastically in the past few years, severe traffic jams occur not only in rush hours but at any time of the day now. Others, however, aie strongly against the limitations. They argue that the great number of official cars,which are frequently used, is a big factor causing traffic congestion. But the policy mainly aims at private cars and has no dear restrictions on the use of official cars. Besides, car purchase limitation would hinder the development of China's automobile industry,and more people would lose their jobs as a result.

Personally, I think the restriction of buying and use of cars, official cars incladed, is

inevitable and just a matter of time for Beijing. If the number of cars is not limited, there will be a

huge disaster for the environment, road resources, the travel demands of normal people and the improvement of living standards.

On Volunteer

In recent years, the volunteering spirit has spread widely among the public, especially among youngsters. From Olympic Games to urban communities, many people are seen to offer free help. Volunteering is of tremendous benefit to those in need. For example, hundreds of thousands of volunteers played an active role in the recent quake-hit Yushu area: they offered medical and psychological aid to the victims in the relief work. On the other hand, volunteering is beneficial to the volunteers themselves too. Involved in volunteering activities, people are exposed to new circumstancesj and they can learn how to work well in a team and how to improve their interpersonal skills, all of which are critical for their career development.

In my view, we should all join in volunteering work as long as we have spare time. That doesn’t necessarily mean that we all volunteer in regions struck by natural disasters. There are many people eise who need our help, i.e. the old or the sick in the near nursing home. Little by EittJe, we are sure to help make the world better

Publicizing Lists of Uncivilized Residents

To improve tbe behavior of its citizens, the government of X City has teamed with local media to release lists of uncivilized behavion. The lists have photos and basic information of offenders e. g, drivers brealdng traffic rules have their license-plate nurabers listed along with the time and location of the infraction. This has attracted particular public attention.

Some welcome the policy, believing it will deter people ftom poor behavior They say it will force people to behave themscives, or they will risk being named and shamed in the media. However, critics have complained that the initiative is an abuse of administrative power and is irresponsible* Citizens should certainly be held responsible for misconduct, they say, but the government should also create an environment to help people exercise self-discipline.

Personatlyt I agree that citizens should be responsible for their improper behavior but governments also do have a responsibility to improve their management. Besides, according to laws, law enforcement departments are entitled to give the proper punishments to violators of public regulations. It is, however, groundless for these governmental organs to publicly disgrace the rule- brcakcis.

Self-help Traveling

More and more college students choose self-help trayelijig rather than arranged tours when they plan to travel. The reason inay be that by ananging the route, booking cheaper hotels and taking cheaper transportation means 2.W by themselves, they can save a lot of money.

Convenient and economical as self-help traveling sounds, it still has some potential problems Perhaps the most important one is the safety hazard. Being alone without a group or a tour guide, a traveler may be helpless in face of danger, i.e. robbery, wild animal attacks, etc. In addition, they are more Eikely to be at risk of getting lost when traveling alone in a strange city or in the remote countryside.

In my view, self-help traveling can be exciting and challenging which is worth trying. However, before setting out alone on a tour, travelers should make good preparations. Besides, they should hear security in mind all the time and keep ia touch with their friends or relatives. By doing soa they can enjoy the pleasure of exploring a strange city safe and sound.

The Young Want to Be Leader

It is a widespread phenomenon that today’s young people want to be leaders, whether they serve in private companies or public sections, This is especially commonplace among people born in the 70s and 80s.

To this phenomenon, people have various opinions, According to some people, it reveals that today’s young are all but down-to-earth. They are all reaching for what is beyond their grasp. In the eyes of others, however, it is just natural. Everyone is instinctively pursuing a better life, they say, and becoming a leader is obviously one of the shortcuts to it.

In my view, young people should have their feet the on the ground. After all, the leading positions are limited and require vision and special qualities, which, unfortunately, many of today’s young people are lacking. Fighting blindly for the position, they won’t ascend to the leadership but fall and get drowned in the sea of disappointment.

As English Spreads, Indonesians Fear for Their Language

Paulina Sugiarto’s three children played together at a mall here the other day, chattering not in Indonesia’s national language, but English. Their fluency often draws admiring questions from other Indonesian parents Ms. Sugiarto encounters in this city’s upscale malls.

But the children’s ability in English obscured the fact that, though born and raised in Indonesia, they were struggling with the Indonesian language, known as Bahasa Indonesia. Their parents, who grew up speaking the Indonesian language but went to college in the United States and Australia, talk to their children in English. And the children attend a private school where English is the main language of instruction.

“They know they’re Indonesian,” Ms. Sugiarto, 34, said. “They love Indonesia. They just can’t speak Bahasa Indonesia. It’s tragic.”

Indonesia’s linguistic legacy is increasingly under threat as growing numbers of wealthy and upper-middle-class families shun (避开) public schools where Indonesian remains the main language but English is often taught poorly. They are turning, instead, to private schools that focus on English and devote little time, if any, to Indonesian.

For some Indonesians, as mastery of English has become increasingly tied to social standing, Indonesian has been relegated to second-class status. In extreme cases, people take pride in speaking Indonesian poorly.

The global spread of English, with its sometimes corrosive (逐渐破坏的) effects on local languages, has caused much hand-wringing (焦虑) in many non-English-speaking corners of the world. But the implications may be more far-reaching in Indonesia, where generations of political leaders promoted Indonesian to unite the nation and forge a national identity out of countless ethnic groups, ancient cultures and disparate dialects.

The government recently announced that it would require all private schools to teach the nation’s official language to its Indonesian students by 2013. Details remain sketchy, though.

“These schools operate here, but don’t offer Bahasa to our citizens,” said Suyanto, who oversees primary and secondary education at the Education Ministry.

“If we don’t regulate them, in the long run this could be dangerous for the continuity of our

language,” said Mr. Suyanto, who like many Indonesians uses one name. “If this big country doesn’t have a strong language to unite it, it could be dangerous.”

The seemingly reflexive preference for English has begun to attract criticism in the popular culture. Last year, a woman, whose father is Indonesian and her mother American, was crowned Miss Indonesia despite her poor command of Indonesian. The judges were later condemned in the news media and in the blogs for being impressed by her English fluency and for disregarding the fact that, despite growing up here, she needed interpreters to translate the judges’ questions.

In 1928, nationalists seeking independence from Dutch rule chose Indonesian, a form of Malay, as the language of civic unity. While a small percentage of educated Indonesians spoke Dutch, Indonesian became the preferred language of intellectuals.

Each language had a social rank, said Arief Rachman, an education expert. “If you spoke Javanese, you were below,” he said, referring to the main language on the island of Java. “If you spoke Indonesian, you were a bit above. If you spoke Dutch, you were at the top.”

Leaders, especially Suharto, the general who ruled Indonesia until 1998, enforced teaching of Indonesian and curbed use of English.

“During the Suharto era, Bahasa Indonesia was the only language that we could see or read. English was at the bottom of the rank,” said Aimee Dawis, who teaches communications at Universitas Indonesia. “It was used to create a national identity, and it worked, because all of us spoke Bahasa Indonesia. Now the dilution (淡化) of Bahasa Indonesia is not the result of a deliberate government policy. It’s just occurring naturally.”

With Indonesia’s democratization (民主化) in the past decade, experts say, English became the new Dutch. Regulations were loosened, allowing Indonesian children to attend private schools that did not follow the national curriculum, but offered English. The more expensive ones, with tuition costing several thousand dollars a year, usually employ native speakers of English, said Elena Racho, vice chairwoman of the Association of National Plus Schools, an umbrella organization for private schools.

But with the popularity of private schools booming, hundreds have opened in recent years, Ms. Racho said. The less expensive ones, unable to hire foreigners, are often staffed with Indonesians teaching all subjects in English, if often imperfect English, she added.

Many children attending those schools end up speaking Indonesian poorly, experts said. Uchu Riza — who owns a private school that teaches both languages — said some Indonesians were willing to sacrifice Indonesian for a language with perceived higher status.

“Sometimes they look down on people who don’t speak English,” she said.

She added: “In some families, the grandchildren cannot speak with the grandmother because they don’t speak Bahasa Indonesia. That’s sad.”

Anna Surti Ariani, a psychologist who provides counseling at private schools and in her own

practice, said some parents even displayed “a negative pride” that their children spoke poor Indonesian. Schools typically advise the parents to speak to their children in English at home even though the parents may be far from fluent in the language.

“Sometimes the parents even ask the baby sitters not to speak in Indonesian but in English,” Ms. Ariani said.

It is a sight often seen in this city’s malls on weekends: Indonesian parents addressing their children in sometimes halting English, followed by nannies using what English words they know.

But Della Raymena Jovanka, 30, a mother of two preschoolers, has developed misgivings (担忧). Her son Fathiy, 4, attended an English play group and was enrolled in a kindergarten focusing on English; Ms. Jovanka allowed him to watch only English TV programs.

The result was that her son responded to his parents only in English and had difficulties with Indonesian. Ms. Jovanka was considering sending her son to a regular public school next year. But friends and relatives were pressing her to choose a private school so that her son could become fluent in English.

Asked whether she would rather have her son become fluent in English or Indonesian, Ms. Jovanka said, “To be honest, English. But this can become a big problem in his socialization. He’s Indonesian. He lives in Indonesia. If he can’t communicate with people, it’ll be a big problem.”

With the rapid development of our society,more and more characters prefer the work like managers rather than the ordinary staff.Especially among the young ,either boys or girls,both of them want to be leaders. What's the attitudes towards this phenomenon?

Different people hold different ideas about this

phenomenon.Some people think that .the young just

graduated from school a few years.They lack of working experience.Many of them can't deal with the emergy

events which happened during work.They also need

advices from the old one. But some people have the different ideas.They believe that,young people are

creative,and they're the future .Their thought are not

restrainted.They always did wekk when they are leaders.

(二) Is Offering Seats Compulsory for Young

Passengers?

(1) In recent years, there have been many disputes about young's giving seats to the

elderly on buses. (2) Some people maintain that the elderly are physically weak and (3) are more prone to falling and getting hurt when standing on a moving bus. (2) Therefore, young people, especially those taking the priority seats, have obligation to offer the seats to senior citizens to prevent potential hurt.

(4) Some people, however, think the other way.

(5) Young passengers, they say, pay for the bus trip, so they enjoy the same right as senior citizens to use seats on the bus. (5) Besides, many young riders, though physically strong, can't escape (3)being exhausted by a day's work and are in great need of the seats on buses too. Forcing them to give up the seats seems inhuman and unfair.

(6) In my view, whether it is compulsory for the young to give up their seats to needy riders

depends on the kind of seats they take. (7) In general, it is a moral requirement for young passengers on regular seats to do so. (7) However, for those sitting on priority seats, it is a legal

ID Registration Policy for Mobile Phone Users

(1) People were not required to show and have their identities registered when they bought a sim card before. Except some sim cards designated for particular people, you could get almost what you wish - no matter what kind of sim card and how many cards you want. All seemed so simple and convenient.

(2) Obviously, (3) the easy access to sim cards has its drawbacks. (4) The most annoying one is the (3) rampant spread of spam messages, telephone harassment and fraud. The reason: a mobile phone number that gives no useful in-formation makes it difficult to

chase the anonymous caller or sender. (4) Besides, many users tend to discard cards at random and that causes waste of resources.

(5) When people are asked for their ID in the purchase of sim cards, however, the problems mentioned above will be solved easily. (6) Since sim cards can be used to identify users, people will

(3) feel trapped when they intend to send spam messages or commit telephone frauds. (6) And the fact that their sim cards contain confidential information concerning their personal interests

The Young Want to Be Leader

It is a widespread phenomenon that today’s young people want to be leaders, whether they serve in private companies or public sections, This is especially commonplace among people born in the 70s and 80s.

To this phenomenon, people have various opinions, According to some people, it reveals that today’s young are all but down-to-earth. They are all reaching for what is beyond their grasp. In the eyes of others, however, it is just natural. Everyone is instinctively pursuing a better life, they say, and becoming a leader is obviously one of the shortcuts to it.

In my view, young people should have their feet the on the ground. After all, the leading positions are limited and require vision and special qualities, which, unfortunately, many of today’s young people are lacking. Fighting blindly for the position, they won’t ascend to the leadership but fall and get drowned in the sea of disappointment.

Hiring Celebrities as Mating Professors

Via Internet or other means of mass media,it is common to team that some super stars are employed as a guest professor of a university Whether it is helpful to hire personages for a university's development on hot debate from the very beginning. There are two voices: Some people think that stars’ social influence can do good to the enrollment of a university and raise its social degrees of approval. Besides, universities should open to society and take advantage of various social resources,inclusive of celebrities1 life experience and struggling adventure. However, others hold the opposite viewpoint. They think that a professor under a star's name is just an advertising stunt, and has no practical meaning to the development of the university. It also diverts students* attention from their academic study.

In my view, just as a coin has two sides, the inviting of celebrities as guest professors has both good and bad effect. Thus I think colleges should evaluate the possible results thoroughly, and their choices should be based on the improvement of teaching standards and students, development. Universities should also take the features of their relevant disciplines into consideration before hiring some celebrity as a visiting professor.

Giving Children Cell Phones

More and more children are showing up at school each September with cell phones. Many parents buy their children a cell phone because it is a nice safety measure. It gives those working parents a little sense of control and security to know when diet children are off school grounds and on their way home.

But having a cell phone might be a problem* Parents may find themselves facing a frightening bill at the end of the month. The reason: chatting on the phone and sending text messages can soon become the favorite pastime of preteens and teenagers. Worse still, cell phones in schools can lead to classroom distractions, text-message cheating and inappropriate photographs.

Knowing their children can always be reached is reassuring for parents. But before buying their child a cell phone, I think parents should decide if the child is really capable of managing his or her own phone. Besides,parental control must be exercised in the use of the phone. For example, they should set limits on how long the child is allowed to stay on the phone.

Should Graduates Spend Much on Job Hunting?

Nowadays college graduates spend more and more money on job hunting. According to a recent survey, almost every graduate spends some money on finding a job. And clothing, transportation, resumes producing and training expense are the main aspects that cost them a lot of money.

As to this phenomenon, different people have different views. Some say it is necessary for graduates to spend money on producing embellished resumes and buying suitable clothes, which can give interviewers a good impression and increase their chance of success. However, others don’t think so. They argue that the high expenditure can increase their parents,financial burden since most students have no regular income. Apart from that, the decorated resumes do little help to find a job because most HR managers pay more attention to skills.

In my opinion, there is nothing wrong far graduates to invest some money on job hunting* But they should bear in mind that it is their knowledge, skills as well as experience that matter a lot. So they must have a rational attitude toward what they should buy and how much money they should spend,

Should Food Be Banned on the Subway?

Currently, some cities are considering a food ban on subways, which has sparked heated discussion. Some people say food should be banned because of the trash and rats they attract. And, garbage from discarded food can cause track fires. Beyond sanitary and mechanical concerns, food can also fiiel fist fights, as was discovered last week by one passenger who criticized a woman eating steamed stuffed bun on the subway.

However, some others are opposed to the idea. They argue that people like eating in the train in the morning because they don’t have enough time to eat at their houses or restaurants. Sometimes that may be the only time or meal a transit rider may be able to eat especially when traveling long distances. Besides, there are people, for example diabetics, who do require food at various times to maintain blood-sugar levels.

Personally, I’m against the ban because of the huge inconvenience it would cause commuters, and the expense involved in enforcing it. Still, I believe we should have a little common courtesy. I think we all have responsibility to try to treat our subway system and fellow riders with respect, and that extends to food as well.

2. 出现这些现象的原因和后果

Equality of Education Opportunity

In recent years the problems which are caused by the inequality of education opportunity have attracted the public's attention. For instance, the backward teaching facilities and dilapidated school buildings in rural areas are in sharp contrast to those advanced facilities and well-equipped classrooms in urban areas, students from poor families can,t go to universities because of the high tuition.

There are several factors which contribute lo these problems. First, the distribution of resources is unbalanced between rural and urban schools- Second, educational loans for poor students are far from enough. Third, the inequality in some schools* admission policies also turns many students away. The education inequality can have many bad impacts. On the one hand, it can affect people’s future employment. On the other hand,it is the root of many social problems.

To change this situation, I think, we should take the following measures. Firstly, the government spending on education should be increased and the allocation of public resources gives probity to rural and weak urban schools. Secondly the implementation of the government financial aid system for students should be accelerated. Thirdly, the government should speed up education reforms to ensure

everyone has equal access to schools,

We Shouldn’t Totally Turn to the Internet

Nowadays Internet has become an indispensable part in our life, and we use it for various purposes, such as searching useful information and chatting online. However, now more and more people turn to the Internet for help whenever they have trouble in finding solutions to their problems^ and this phenomenon has aroused the public’s attention.

Relying on the Internet to solve all our difficulties can have bad impacts on us+ On the one hand, since we can always settle the troubles by searching solutions online, we can become very lazy and don*t bother to think up answers by ourselves, which can hinder the development of creative thinking. On the other hand, the answers online may be inaccurate or wrong. If we use them without thinking the credibility of them, we may make serious mistakes someday.

As far as I'm concerned, we shouldn’t completely depend on the Internet to settle problems* When we come across some difficulties, we’d better try our best to find possible solutions* If we make great efforts and still can’t come up with an answer, then we can surf online to search solutions. But we should question the correctness of these answers before we adopt them.

Paying little attention to older parents can have serious consequences- First, the elderly often feel lonely and depressed if there is no child with whom they can talk, and this can have a bad effect OD their mental heath. Second, the aged parents with no children by their sides can have a lot of trouble in their daily life due to disease or old age.

In my opinion, we should take the following measures. Children should be encouraged to live with or near their old parents, which is very helpful for them to know their parents,conditions and attend their daily life. And it is also necessary for them to create chances to communicate with their aged parents. Besides, our

government should strive to establish the service system for the elderly and expand its social insurance coverage among them.

As English Spreads, Indonesians Fear for Their Language

Paulina Sugiarto’s three children played together at a mall here the other day, chattering not in Indonesia’s national language, but English. Their fluency often draws admiring questions from other Indonesian parents Ms. Sugiarto encounters in this city’s upscale malls.

But the children’s ability in English obscured the fact that, though born and raised in Indonesia, they were struggling with the Indonesian language, known as Bahasa Indonesia. Their parents, who grew up speaking the Indonesian language but went to college in the United States and Australia, talk to their children in English. And the children attend a private school where English is the main language of instruction.

“They know they’re Indonesian,” Ms. Sugiarto, 34, said. “They love Indonesia. They just can’t speak Bahasa Indonesia. It’s tragic.”

Indonesia’s linguistic legacy is increasingly under threat as growing numbers of wealthy and upper-middle-class families shun (避开) public schools where Indonesian remains the main language but English is often taught poorly. They are turning, instead, to private schools that focus on English and devote little time, if any, to Indonesian.

For some Indonesians, as mastery of English has become increasingly tied to social standing, Indonesian has been relegated to second-class status. In extreme cases, people take pride in speaking Indonesian poorly.

The global spread of English, with its sometimes corrosive (逐渐破坏的) effects on local languages, has caused much hand-wringing (焦虑) in many non-English-speaking corners of the world. But the implications may be more far-reaching in Indonesia, where generations of political leaders promoted Indonesian to unite the nation and forge a national identity out of countless ethnic groups, ancient cultures and disparate dialects.

The government recently announced that it would require all private schools to teach the nation’s official language to its Indonesian students by 2013. Details remain sketchy, though.

“These schools operate here, but don’t offer Bahasa to our citizens,” said Suyanto, who oversees primary and secondary education at the Education Ministry.

“If we don’t regulate them, in the long run this could be dangerous for the continuity of our language,” said Mr. Suyanto, who like many Indonesians uses one name. “If this big country doesn’t have a strong language to unite it, it could be dangerous.”

The seemingly reflexive preference for English has begun to attract criticism in the popular culture.

Last year, a woman, whose father is Indonesian and her mother American, was crowned Miss Indonesia despite her poor command of Indonesian. The judges were later condemned in the news media and in the blogs for being impressed by her English fluency and for disregarding the fact that, despite growing up here, she needed interpreters to translate the judges’ questions.

In 1928, nationalists seeking independence from Dutch rule chose Indonesian, a form of Malay, as the language of civic unity. While a small percentage of educated Indonesians spoke Dutch, Indonesian became the preferred language of intellectuals.

Each language had a social rank, said Arief Rachman, an education expert. “If you spoke Javanese, you were below,” he said, referring to the main language on the island of Java. “If you spoke Indonesian, you were a bit above. If you spoke Dutch, you were at the top.”

Leaders, especially Suharto, the general who ruled Indonesia until 1998, enforced teaching of Indonesian and curbed use of English.

“During the Suharto era, Bahasa Indonesia was the only language that we could see or read. English was at the bottom of the rank,” said Aimee Dawis, who teaches communications at Universitas Indonesia. “It was used to create a national identity, and it worked, because all of us spoke Bahasa Indonesia. Now the dilution (淡化) of Bahasa Indonesia is not the result of a deliberate government policy. It’s just occurring naturally.”

With Indonesia’s democratization (民主化) in the past decade, experts say, English became the new Dutch. Regulations were loosened, allowing Indonesian children to attend private schools that did not follow the national curriculum, but offered English. The more expensive ones, with tuition costing several thousand dollars a year, usually employ native speakers of English, said Elena Racho, vice chairwoman of the Association of National Plus Schools, an umbrella organization for private schools.

But with the popularity of private schools booming, hundreds have opened in recent years, Ms. Racho said. The less expensive ones, unable to hire foreigners, are often staffed with Indonesians teaching all subjects in English, if often imperfect English, she added.

Many children attending those schools end up speaking Indonesian poorly, experts said. Uchu Riza — who owns a private school that teaches both languages — said some Indonesians were willing to sacrifice Indonesian for a language with perceived higher status.

“Sometimes they look down on people who don’t speak English,” she said.

She added: “In some families, the grandchildren cannot speak with the grandmother because they don’t speak Bahasa Indonesia. That’s sad.”

Anna Surti Ariani, a psychologist who provides counseling at private schools and in her own practice, said some parents even displayed “a negative pride” that their children spoke poor Indonesian. Schools typically advise the parents to speak to their children in English at home even though the parents may be far from fluent in the language.

“Sometimes the parents even ask the baby sitters not to speak in Indonesian but in English,” Ms. Ariani said.

It is a sight often seen in this city’s malls on weekends: Indonesian parents addressing their children in sometimes halting English, followed by nannies using what English words they know.

But Della Raymena Jovanka, 30, a mother of two preschoolers, has developed misgivings (担忧).

Her son Fathiy, 4, attended an English play group and was enrolled in a kindergarten focusing on English; Ms. Jovanka allowed him to watch only English TV programs.

The result was that her son responded to his parents only in English and had difficulties with Indonesian. Ms. Jovanka was considering sending her son to a regular public school next year. But friends and relatives were pressing her to choose a private school so that her son could become fluent in English.

Asked whether she would rather have her son become fluent in English or Indonesian, Ms. Jovanka said, “To be honest, English. But this can become a big problem in his socialization. He’s Indonesian. He lives in Indonesia. If he can’t communicate with people, it’ll be a big problem.”

The Young Want to Be Leaders篇十:作文

An online survey conducted by the China Youth Daily shows that most young people (66.6%) want to be a leader in a company or in other organizations. Only 4.8% say they are not interested in being a leader. Some people say it is a good phenomenon that the young want to be leaders. After all, it shows that the young have great ambitions which will inspire them to work hard. Others, however, think otherwise. They argue that it only reveals so many young people are chasing fame and fortune. A sign that is bad for the healthy development of the young and the whole society.

Personally, I believe the saying “He who doesn’t want to be a general isn’t a good soldier.” And ,it’s encouraging that we still have many young people who seek power from a mere view of the good of the people. So, I don’t think it anything wrong for the young to desire a position in the lead as long as they don’t eye it as a shortcut to fame and fortune.

Some other good sentences:

It is a widespread phenomenon that today’s young people want to be leaders, whether they serve in private companies or public sections. This is especially commonplace among people born in the 70s and 80s. To this phenomenon, people have various opinions.

They are all reaching for what is beyond their grasp.

In my view, young people should have their feet on the ground

Fighting blindly for the position, they won’t ascend to the leadership but fall and get drowned in the sea of disappointment.

Is offering Seats Compulsory for Young Passengers?

In recent years, there have been many disputes about young’s giving seats to the elderly on buses. Some people maintain that the elderly are physically weak and are more prone to falling and getting hurt when standing on a moving bus. Therefore, young people, especially those taking priority seats, have obligation to offer the seats to senior citizens to prevent potential hurt.

Some people, however, think the other way. Young passengers, they say, pay for the bus trip, so they enjoy the same right as senior citizens to use seats on the bus. Besides, many young riders, though physically strong, can’t escape being exhausted by a day’s work and are in great need of the seats on buses too. Forcing them to give up the seats seems inhuman and unfair.

In my view, whether it is compulsory for the young to give up their seats to needy riders depends on the kind of seats they take. In general. It

is a moral requirement for young passengers on regular seats to do so. However, for those sitting on priority seats, it is a legal obligation..

Whether it is compulsory for young passengers to offer seats to elderly people has become a topic of debate in China. Supporters say it is compulsory because it helps create a sound social environment. If those refusing to give up their seats can get away with it, in the long run, the selfish bus riders will never change their behavior and proper bus manners won’t prevail.

Opponents, on the contrary, maintain that it’s not compulsory. According to these people, young bus riders pay the same fare as senior citizens (certain elderly people even enjoy the right to take the bus free of charge). Therefore. Young people have no obligation to give up their seats and hurt no one’s right if they refuse to do so.

Personally. I think offering seats to the elderly on buses is a morally good deed and is necessary for the healthy development of the society. However, the precondition is that the young do this out of true willingness. Those refusing to offer their seats shouldn’t be forced to do so; instead, education and proper guidance would be the right way to correct improper behavior.

Hiring Celebrities as Visiting Professors

Nowadays, it is not rare that celebrities from all walks of life are employed as guest professors in universities. And we can always see reports about this in newspapers , magazines and other news media.

Some people see it as a win-win situation. On the one hand, celebrities can share their successful stories with students, which can broaden students’ horizon and inspire them to work harder. On the other hand, being visiting professors of universities, the celebrities can make themselves known to more people. However, other people disapprove this practice. They argue that universities’ intention of inviting celebrities to be professors is to enhance the school’ fame instead of improving the quality of education, and some celebrities are not qualified to be professors.

In my view, just as a coin has two sides, the inviting of celebrities as guest professors has good and bad effects. Thus I think college should evaluate the possible results thoroughly, and their choices should be based on the improvement of teaching standards and students’ development.

Via the Internet or other means of mass media, it is common to learn that some super star is employed as a guest professor of a university. Whether it is helpful to hire personages for a university’s development is

on hot debate from the very beginning.

There are two voices. Some people think that stars’ social influence can do good to the enrollment of a university and raise its social degrees of approval. Besides, universities should open to society and take advantage of various social resources, inclusive of celebrities’ life experiences and struggling adventures. However, other hold the opposite viewpoint. They think that a professor under a star’s name is just an advertising stunt, and has no practical meaning to the development of the university. It also diverts students’ attention from their academic study.

In my opinion, university should take the features of their relevant disciplines into consideration before hiring some celebrity as visiting professor. Any rash decision bears no good fruit.

Online shopping has become a fashion trend. Almost everyone has experienced online shopping-some even have got accustomed to it. However, while making our life easier, it may bring us problems as well. Goods ranging from fruit to steak, from a book to an intensive training program, from a film ticket to a package tour can all be purchased without leaving one’s home, which saves all the traffic jams, parking inconvenience and queuing time. Nevertheless, goods or services
