当前不少文学作品被改编成电影。有人选择看电影，有人则喜欢读原著。请你以“Film or book, which do you prefer?”为题，按照下列要点写一篇英语短文：

1、 看电影：省时、有趣、易懂  2、 读原著：细节更多、语言优美

3、 我的看法及理由：文章题目和开头已给出（不计入词数）。

      2、参考词汇： original work 或 book in the original （原著）

Film or book, which do you prefer? 

Some of us think that it is better to see the film than to read the book in the original. The reason is that it takes less time to understand the whole story. Besides, the film is usually more interesting, and it is easier to follow.

Some others have just the opposite opinion. They think that they can get more detailed information from the original. Meanwhile, the language in the book is possibly more lively and beautiful.

Personally, I agree with the second view. Actually I have more reasons for it. I think I can stay at home, reading quietly in a situation of my own, and what's more, I am able to better understand the author's ideas. In a word, to read the original work is better than to see the film based on it.

 

阅读下列图表，以“Changes in the Ways People Spent Their Holidays”为题，写一篇词数为120左右的短文。

注意：1 短文的首句已给出，不计入总数；2 可根据图表信息，适当发挥。

The ways people spent their holidays have changed greatly recently.

In 2002,35% of people spent their holidays at home. The number dropped greatly to 10% in 2006. It seems that people have more time and more money to enjoy the outside world than before.

The graph shows that the number of people spending their holiday traveling abroad increased. Compared with 15% in 2002, the rate in 2006 rote to 25 % . Because people now have much more money than before, they can afford to travel abroad , and the rate may continue to rise in the near future.

From the graph we can also see that the number of people going to the seaside remained nearly the same, while the number of people who go camping rose from 10 % in 2002 to 30 % in 2006. The reason may be that people become tired of the city life and want to be close to nature.

改善注意力的建议：

Our school has made a survey about how long middle school students can fix their attention in class during each period. The result shows that only 40% of the students can draw their attention to the class, while the rest of them can not concentrate on the lesson. 30% of the students think the problem is caused by all kinds of noises in the classroom; the other part of students consider the lack of sleep and tiredness as the major causes.

Therefore, we advise that the classroom be bright and the air inside stay fresh. As for students, they should try their best to be active in class in order not to be disturbed by others. During the breaks, they can take some exercises or have a little rest in the classroom.

参考答案：

The programs, which we just watched, are beneficial to all of us. We know how to survive earthquakes, big floods and so on. There is no denying that the security deserves our attention. As a student, we should do our best to achieve the goal of making our school campus safe.

    Therefore we should realize that we cannot do anything well without the awareness of security. We should pay more attention when doing sports. Do not go to playground to do exercises like swing and double bars all by yourself. Besides, we should attach importance to the safety both inside and outside the campus. Moreover, when getting into trouble with our classmates, we should remain calm and report it to the teachers.

In my opinion, all the students and teachers should work hard and creatively to put the “making our campus safe” activity into practice. On the other hand, we are supposed to follow the law and discipline and take every opportunity to make our school safe.

     Our school is our own home to study at. Here in safety, we can enjoy a peaceful and happy life, making everything in harmony.
