Online Libraries

Online libraries are becoming increasingly popular，which has become an

essential part in people’s life. Just as a coin has two sides, online

libraries also have their advantages and disadvantages.

On the one hand, online libraries can provide abundant resources with

small volume. Readers can make use of online libraries without the limit

of time and space. What’s more, online libraries can transmit

information quickly, as well as share resources efficiently.

On the other hand, the use of online libraries is restricted by certain

conditions, for example, it must be connected with network to be used.

If there is a malfunction, it cannot be read. Moreover, the content of

4

online libraries is faced with the risk of being distorted and sometimes

the security of the content is poor. What’s worse, if use online library

more often, it’s bad for the readers’ eyes.

To be concluded, online libraries have changed people's life in many ways,

but they also lead to some negative consequences. People should

discern good from bad when using online libraries and use them

reasonably and flexibly. Only in this way can online libraries better serve

people and not the other way around.

Moutai, China's most famous liquor, was chosen for the state banquet on

the eve of the founding of People’s Republic of China.

It is said that villagers along the Chishui River began brewing Moutai four

thousand years ago. During the Western Han Dynasty, the people there

produced high quality Moutai and they tributed it to the emperor. Since

the Tang Dynasty, this local liquor has been shipped overseas via the

Maritime Silk Road.

Moutai has a soft taste and a special aroma. Moderate consumption can

help relieve fatigue and has a sedative effect, so it is widely loved by

consumers at home and abroad.

The Use of PowerPoint (PPT) in Class

The use of PowerPoint has gained popularity in class nowadays. More

and more teachers are using PowerPoint in their classes, no matter in

primary schools, high schools or universities. Some students love it,

some don’t. Indeed, not all teachers, students even parents hold the

same opinion, as they focus on the different perspectives of the PPT.

For people who love it, they believe PPT serves as a useful tool in class.

PPT can present knowledge in a clarified way and students no longer

need to recognize the handwriting of their teachers as some teachers do

have terrible handwriting. And for teachers, PPT also rescues them from

writing on the blackboard, which is sometimes a heavy work. Besides,

PPT can be saved and copied for students to review after class.

But for people who prefer the traditional class, they think PPT can never

replace the blackboard. As when having class with PPT, students have

less time taking notes. Meanwhile, some teachers say preparing PPT is

very time-consuming and not efficient at all. Some parents, especially

parents of primary students, are strongly against PPT for they regard PPT

as a digital product that damages the eyesight of their kids.

6

To sum up, PPT does have strengths and weaknesses. But I believe it

brings so much convenience for us that we can ignore the few weakness

it has. And when using it, we can still take the blackboard as an aid so as

to present the class in the best way.

Tea has a history of five thousand years. A legend goes that a few tree

leaves fell into the kettle of Shen Nong when he was boiling water. When

the water was boiled, he smelled a pleasant aroma. He took a few sips

and felt refreshing. Tea was accidentally discovered in this way.

Since then, tea has gained popularity in China. Tea gardens have

prospered around the nation and tea merchants become rich. Expensive

and graceful tea sets have been regarded as symbols of status.

Today, tea is more than just a healthy beverage. It has become a part of

Chinese culture. More and more international tourists who are attracted

by tea are getting to know Chinese culture.

The increasing popularity of using online dictionaries has aroused a

heated discussion as to its benefits and drawbacks. Views on the topic

7

vary greatly among people from different walks of life. Some believe that

it is convenient for looking up new words but others believe that it does

more harm than good.

On the one hand, an online dictionary is lighter than a traditional

dictionary and it saves time. Instead of carrying a thick dictionary around,

all you need to do is download an online dictionary on your phone. And

a tap on the screen will rescue you from awkwardness when coming

across a new word. On the other hand, using online dictionaries too

much may hinder language learning, especially for students. Looking up

words in a traditional dictionary takes time, but it can enhance your

memory of the words at the same time. If students rely too much on

online dictionaries, they would probably stop learning new words.

From my perspective, it is crucial that companies should update their

apps regularly and improve the overall quality. Also, it is high time that

people realized that online dictionaries are not only for looking up new

words, but for vocabulary learning as well. Only by doing so can people

truly enjoy the benefits brought by online dictionaries.

If you visit Beijing, there are two things you should never miss: one is to

climb the Great Wall, the other is to eat the Peking roast duck. The

8

world-known Peking roast duck, once only limited to the palace, is now

served in hundreds of restaurants in Beijing.

Peking roast duck originated in Ming Dynasty six hundred years ago.

Chefs from all over the country were selected to come to the capital to

cook for the emperor. It was considered a great honor to cook in the

imperial palace, and only those who were excellent could get the job. In

fact, it was these palace chefs who perfected the art of Peking roast duck

cooking.
