Nowadays, increasingly more argumentations about A can be found in TV programs, newspapers, ugogo and marry aspects of our everyday life.Since its concept covers vast fields, such as science, humanity, ideology, economy, society and nature, A is difficult to be defined, precisely and fixedly. Generally speaking ,we can describe A as follows:--.A’s status as the focus of public concern mainly results from its in negligible but harmful influence on individuals, collective, and even the whole world. It seems to have a strange power to drive some individuals or organizations to act wrongly. The essence of these wrong actions is:(1) to gain personal, short-term and partial individual interest at the expense of damaging others’ long-term and overall interest;(2) to adopt improper means to win more rewards with less input.Situating under the shadow of A, individuals /organizations and violate natural law merely to obtain temporary, or even illusory interests. However, the result may turn out to be loss of really important and valuable resource or ability.We must keep highly alert of the problems evoked by A, because once the harmful influence accumulates to a certain degree and then spread, it will surely threaten the development of the whole society.Though with various reasons and forms, from the perspective of the essence, the problems brought by A originates from the fundamental principle of human ideology and material production. Thus, we should seek the solutions through setting foot on this principle.Due to the depth and width of A’s harmful influence, we should draft our solutiogogotematically on the basis of deep analysis of A problem. We must acquire our power from technology, management, law and culture terrorm, effectively eliminate the shadow of A, and e万能英语作文模板.Nowadays ,there are more and more XX in some big cities .

It is estimated that (75 percentagesof parents often complain their children\’s unreasonable behavior while childrenusually think their parents too old fashioned).Why have there been so much misunderstanding between parents and children?Maybe the reasons can be listed as follows . The first one is that ( the two generations,having grown up at different times, have different likes and dislikes ,thus the disagreement often rises between them) . Besides(due to having little in common to talk about , they are not willing to sit face to face ) . The third reason is (with thepace of modern life becoming faster and faster , both of them are so busy with theirwork or study that they don\’t spare enough time to exchange ideas ).To sum up ,the main cause of XX is due to ( lake of communication and understanding each other) .It is high time that something were done upon it.

Why does such circumstance occur in spite of social protects? For one thing ,(the population of the world is increasing so rapidly that the world has been so crowded. ).For another,(the overuse of natural resources has influenced the balance of natural ecology ). What is more , since ( the industrial revolution ) ,it is naturalthat (a great number of factories have been springing up like mushrooms .The smoke and harmful chemicals released from factories also pollute the environment ).

But I say that to read books is more valuable than anything else, because books give us knowledge and knowledge gives us power.5.介绍环境式的开头即开头利用自然景物或自然环境引出要介绍的事物.如“An Accident 的开头是:It was a rainy and windy morning.

Dear Mr. Watson,

CLAIM AL54323432–-STORM DAMAGE TO ROOF

     I received a cheque for $623 dated 26 January in payment of my recent claim(索赔). However, I wish to tell you how upset I have been by the way your Claims Assessor, Mr. Michael Tan, handled this claim.

    When Mr. Tan first called me, he specifically told me that he believed I had been overcharged, and he would expect to pay that price for work on a double garage, rather than a single garage like mine. Mr. Tan suggested that I neither use nor recommend this contractor again. He continued to tell me it was unlikely for me to receive full payment. Never during this conversation did he mention that the reason for not receiving full payment was because of the nature of my insurance policy.

    Consequently, I wrote to Mr. Lance Ashe to complain about his pricing, stating that I was very upset thinking that he could have taken advantage by overcharging a 73-year-old woman. Mr. Ashe telephoned me immediately and explained his charges in detail. He later reported back to me that Mr. Tan explained that I would not receive full payment because of the type of policy I hold, which does not cover wear and tear. This was the first time this issue had been brought to my attention, so you can imagine my surprise.

   When I received Mr. Tan’s letter of 2 February, this situation was explained. If this had been explained in the first place I would have accepted it and would not have questioned Mr. Ashe’s charges. Instead, by telling me initially that I had been overcharged for this work, he caused a great deal of upset, not only for me but also for Mr. Ashe.

    I believed this claim was handled badly by Mr. Tan from the beginning. Therefore, a great deal of embarrassment has been caused over this issue.

I felt you should know how disappointed and upset I am. I trust you will look into this and ensure that such claims are handled more appropriately in the future.

                                               Yours sincerely,

                                                    Mrs. Richard

1.The author writes this letter to ______.

A. inform the manager of a payment

B. complain about a mishandled case

C. demand an apology from Mr. Watson

D. require the manager to fire Mr. Tan 

2.The underlined words “the contractor” in Para.2 refer to ______.

A. Mr. Tan       B. Mrs. Richard      C. Mr. Ashe    D. Mr. Watson

3.The author could not receive full payment because _______.

A. her policy doesn’t cover some of the items        

B. the contractor overcharged her for the work

C. Mr. Watson doesn’t take the matter seriously     

D. she spent too much money fixing her garage

4.We can learn from the passage that Mr. Tan works in a/an _______.

A. welfare organization         B. nursing house  

C. local affairs office           D. insurance company
