I am on the threshold of graduation in a wink. Its time to look back to my four years campus life, and to have a reflection on the most precious y

18、ears in my whole life. During the four years, there were happiness and sorrows, ups and downs, but on the whole, it was full of colors and achievements. I have gained a lot, psychologically and physically. To begin with, the study at university equipped me with knowledge. Most people firmly believe

19、that university is the ivory tower where we enrich our knowledge, improve our observation ability and learn new methods. It is well known that university is an ideal place for learning, because there are numerous excellent professors and experts in both academic areas and practice areas. In addition

20、, reading and studying has reshaped my character and associating with different people has made me grow mature. Besides, I have learned that we should love and be responsible for our work. During the four years study, my dear professors have set good examples for me. Their sense of responsibility, t

21、heir carefulness and their detailed preparations for classes, all have reflected one thing, that is, their deep love to the course and us students. Illness and bad weather could never easily wither their passion and enthusiasm. They made me think a lot about the meaning of life, and let me know that

22、 it is giving not demanding that values. Whats more, I have learned from my classmates to be considerate and thoughtful. My classmates have never ignored other students unhappiness and troubles. When someone was in a tight corner, they would give him a hand and help him out. It was in college that I

23、 have learned what true friendship is. College is the place where I have learned how to interact and share with my friends, the place where I have learned to be more grateful for friends care and concern. I tried my best to be nice to my friends and to know more about them. It is evident that if we

24、want to be treated nicely by others, we should try to be nice to others first. Pure friendship is precious; friends can share happiness and sadness with each other with true heart. Life is full of ups and downs, and everyone may encounter difficulties and might need others help. So in my later life,

25、 I will help those who are in great need and give a hand to people in plight. In a word, campus life influences me greatly. The campus years are considered as one of the most important periods in my life which has a great impact on my future. It makes my thoughts grow mature and broadens my horizons

26、, and it lets me know what is valuable to my life. 【知识模块】 作文 2 【正确答案】 Should University Students Go in for Business? There are two opposite views on university students trying their hands at business. One is that doing business helps to adapt better to society after graduation, while the other is th

27、at doing business might occupy too much of the students time and energy which, in turn, has a negative impact on their academic study. In my opinion, as long as we can strike a balance between doing business and studying successfully, its benefits far outweigh the disadvantages. Firstly, going in fo

28、r business can help us put what we have learned into practice. In fact, doing business is not that easy as we have expected. It requires good communication skills, negotiation knacks, presentation capabilities and so on. Although we can learn all these from textbooks, they are just theories, and the

29、 real situations are much more complicated. Only when we put knowledge into practice can we capture its essence and grasp the skills better. That is also why at present, more and more universities emphasize the importance of practice in the process of learning. If it is the case and meanwhile we are

30、 provided with the chance to do business by ourselves, why shouldnt we have a try? Secondly, doing business may help us fit into society soon after graduation. As we know, it takes us considerable time to grow from innocent students into reliable employees. The earlier we are able to adjust ourselve

31、s to the business environment of society, the better it will be for our future career development. Negotiating a deal, making a trade, or running a shop all these will not only provide new insights into the world outside the ivory tower but also brighten up the resumes of those marketing, finance an

32、d economy majors. At the same time. when we are seeking for a working position in society, this experience may tell us whether we are fit to do business, in which aspect we are strong and in which aspect we are weak. Last but not least, doing business can enrich our campus life. Campus life is not l

33、imited to academic study. It offers us a lot of spare time for extracurricular activities. If we can use our leisure time to do what we are interested in, such as running a small business, without neglecting our schoolwork, it will surely make our campus life more colorful and meaningful. Undoubtedl

34、y, going in for business is full of risks. It takes knowledge, wisdom, and creativity to cope with obstacles. By learning from doing business, a university student is more likely to become a practical graduate and make a greater contribution to the society in future. 【知识模块】 作文 3 【正确答案】 The Most Impo

35、rtant Personal Quality of a University Student When my eyes caught this topic, my mind began its search for the most important one from many options such as honesty, creativity, fortitude, diligence, etc. Then the best choice teamwork spirit occurred to me. Why does teamwork spirit count so much? Ho

36、w does it set itself off from other qualities which are of absolutely immense but relatively less importance? Before answering this question, I want to remind you of a story of ancient China. It is about three monks. The first monk lived alone in a temple far away from the river which was his only w

37、ater source. He carried water for himself every day. Later came the second monk and then they shared a pole to carry water together. Soon a third monk joined them. Surprisingly, the participation of one more person brought them thirst instead of more water. Since the pole could not be shared by thre

38、e men, each insisted that the other two should go to carry water. Consequently none had water to drink. This story simply proves the importance of teamwork: united, we succeed; divided, we fail. The conventional wisdom holds true for our situation. First, teamwork spirit enables a university student

39、 to fit in at work more smoothly. With the rapid technological specialization and social development, more and more tasks need to be accomplished with collaborative efforts. So, in the present-day society, we are more likely to succeed by working well with colleagues in a group. If a group is like a

40、 machine composed of many a part, teamwork spirit is just the lubrication which ensures its good running. Armed with it, we university graduates can closely cooperate with others and better fulfdl our duty. Second, teamwork spirit maximizes individual value. However sweet a drip of dew is, it cannot

41、 stop your thirst; however luminous a firebug is, it cannot light your way; however powerful a finger is, it cannot give a punch. But if combined with its kind, each can achieve beyond itself. Just as the saying goes, many straws may bind an elephantleft alone, a straw is still a straw, to be trampl

42、ed on. All these tell us that union is strength. Therefore, teamwork spirit can instill power into an individual and help him realize his potential to the utmost extent. Of course, there are other qualities vital for a graduates future success, but they have to come after teamwork spirit, for all th

43、ose qualities shine brightly with teamwork spirit and all of them dim without it. Therefore, to be successful in the present-day society, university graduates should first have teamwork spirit. 【知识模块】 作文 4 【正确答案】 My Views on Working from Home Thanks to the advancement of the Internet and modern comm

44、unication technologies, working from home is becoming a new working pattern. More people choose to work from home instead of going to the office. Different people hold different opinions on this phenomenon. Just as the saying goes, every coin has two sides. Working from home is similar to a two-side

45、 coin. On one side are the advantages while on the flip side are the disadvantages. However, in my opinion, the advantages of working from home far outweigh the disadvantages. First of all, there is no doubt that working from home does workers great favor. The most obvious advantage is that people c

46、an make a better balance between career and family. Since the working schedule becomes more flexible, people can manage their time more efficiently and take more care of their families. In addition, working at home can save both money and time. With the hours on the bus being saved, the workers will

47、 feel less tired. Therefore, workers are able to have higher efficiency, which can produce a feeling of job satisfaction. Whats more, working at home means that you are more productive. Most people spend eight hours per day at work but they rarely work eight hours. A lot of time is wasted on things

48、like chatting with co-workers, or pointless meetings. However, when working at home, workers dont have these distractions. Last but not least, suffering less stress from their employers, the employees can think more clearly and be more creative in the quiet and peaceful atmosphere of their home. Sec

49、ondly, the employers can also benefit a lot from their employees working from home. As stated above, workers can work more efficiently at home than ever before, which will definitely make more contributions to the company and more profits for the employers. Moreover, if the employees work from home, it will reduce various office expenses such as the cost of workplace renting, office supplies and so on. Working from home, just as any other thing in our life, has both advantages and disadvantages. However, in general, there are
