9. Harmfulness of Fake Commodities

　　1.目前社會(huì)上有不少假冒偽劣商品(fake commodities)。為什么會(huì)有這種現(xiàn)象？

　　2.舉例說(shuō)明假冒偽劣商品對(duì)消費(fèi)個(gè)人、社會(huì)等的危害。

　　Nowadays in the society, there are enormous fake commodities. When you go to the supermarket, you may buy some fake food commodities. When you go to the pharmacist's, you may buy some fake medicine.

　　The deep root of this phenomenon lies in someone's greed for money. In order to get a large amount of money in a short time, they try every means to produce fake commodities, without any regard for other people's benefit and health.

　　Fake commodities can do great harm to both consumers and society. For example, when a person bought fake medicine, it was useless in curing his disease and really a waste of money. Sometimes fake medicine can even cause death. Fake commodities are usually sold in a lower price. It causes unfair competition in the market economy and puts the whole society in disorder.

　　10. Don't Hesitate to Say "No"

　　1.別人請(qǐng)求幫助時(shí)，在什么情況下我們會(huì)說(shuō)"不"

　　2.為什么有些人在該說(shuō)"不"的時(shí)候不說(shuō)"不"

　　3.該說(shuō)"不"時(shí)不說(shuō)"不"的壞處

　　Don't Hesitate to Say "No"

　　To help those who are in need is always regarded as a traditional Chinese moral. However people have to know well what the need is before the help is offered. When the need is just for some minority's benefit and against most people's interests, or when it is immoral or unlawful, people should not hesitate to say No. Otherwise they will put themselves into trouble.

　　Unfortunately, there are so many such examples around us that people end up their leadership in jail or bury their glory in shame simply because they don't say "No" while they should. Some people are reluctant to say "No" in front of all kinds of briberies as they want to swamp their power for money. They can't resist the temptations of accumulating wealth in a fast but illegal way. For their own good and their friend's favor, these people would sacrifice millions of RMB Yuan for an unproportional commission and therefore stake there future on scales of law. Other people don't say No because of misinterpreted friendship and lack of sense of law. They never hesitate to do whatever their friends ask them to do. They believe they are helping their friends even when they are actually violating the law or local regulations. Such people will also be punished according to the degree of their misbehavior.

　　Therefore, to help is not always doing good. People should learn to say a No when the help might hurt other people's interests.

　　11.Reading Selectively Or Extensively？

　　1.有人認(rèn)為讀書(shū)要有選擇

　　2.有人認(rèn)為應(yīng)當(dāng)博覽群書(shū)

　　3.我的看法

　　Reading Selectively Or Extensively？

　　How should we read? Should we read selectively or extensively? Everyone has his own view.

　　Some people think we should read selectively. They argue that with the development of modern science and technology, more and more books are being published every day. It is impossible for us to read all the books. What's more, there are many bad books that are poisonous to our mind, and we shouldn't read them. Since we can't read all the books, and we shouldn't read bad books, we must read selectively.

　　But others may not agree. They emphasize that today's society is not what is used to be. If you want to be successful, you must read widely and acquire knowledge in both natural sciences and humanities, if a man knows much in one field but little in others, he may not be of great use to the society. Since we must have a wide range of knowledge, we must read extensively.

　　Who's right? There is a lot to be said for both sides of the argument. However, I think we should read extensively first and then dig into the subject we are interested in.

　　A letter to a Schoolmate

　　June 23, 2001

　　Dear Xiao Wang,

　　I am delighted to know that you will be able to visit me for a week during the National Day holiday. I am looking forward to your visit and to the opportunity to catch up. Welcome to my home in Nanjing!

　　As you know, Nanjing has many places of interest to see, to discover, and to enjoy. Among its historical sites are stone city wall, the Confucius Temple with its magnificent night view, and Dr. Sun Yetsen's Mausoleum. With all its universities, Nanjing is a cultural center, offering an abundance of artistic and musical performances. It's also a city of beautiful gardens and parks, such as the Xuanwu Lake Park. With all these features, we will have a fun-filled week, especially that in early-October, there are many sunny and mild days for outdoor activities. So, I would suggest visiting these places first, and deciding on the others as our week develops.

　　Finally, since at this time of the year the weather gets a little chilly in the evening, I would suggest that you bring some warm clothing with you. Also, as there will be crowds of people at the stations and on the trains, you need to be very careful with your belongings!

　　Best wishes for a pleasant journey!

　　Yours,

　　Zhang Ying
