9、 for a Job A recent survey shows that people who get higher salaries generally work longer hours than those who get lower salaries. Some people favor higher-paid jobs, even though such jobs always result in less time with their family and friends. They believe that money is so indispensable in peopl
10、es lives that without it no material comforts or well-being can be guaranteed. However, I dont think so and I insist that people should take up lower-paid jobs with shorter hours. I have several reasons to support my view. First of all, working people of today are already too stressed. They need tim
11、e of their own to collect themselves and to update their knowledge. In addition, for families as well as individuals, money doesnt necessarily ensure happiness and well-being. People need to spend time getting together with their family members and friends to satisfy their mental demands. Finally, i
12、f people have much spare time and the low-paid jobs cant cover their expenses, they can do an extra part-time job for making up.

14、d about whether euthanasia should be permitted or not for the hopelessly sick people, different people hold different views. Some people take it for granted that nobody is entitled to end others lives under whatever circumstances. However, others hold that euthanasia benefits both the patients and t
15、heir families. As far as Im concerned, I agree with the latter. On the one hand, many terminal patients lose their courage to live for their remaining years because they can no longer endure the tremendous pains caused by diseases and they would choose to suicide if they are not allowed to perform e
16、uthanasia. So it is better to permit them to spend their last minute of life calmly than to witness their self-destruction. On the other hand, euthanasia can be a relief to the patients families. More often than not, family members not only bear the burden of looking after the patients but also part
17、ake of their anguish, therefore life is harder for the family members than any onlookers could imagine. Therefore, a natural conclusion can be drawn that euthanasia can be a blessing in disguise to the seriously ill people and their families. So the purpose of euthanasia lies not so much as in depriving the patients right to life as in satisfying their wish of dying nobly and peacefully. 【试题解析】 第一部分以他人立场引出我的立场:可以允许病人选择安乐死。 第二部分从病人和家属两个方面进行理由阐述。 第三部分概括全文,重申观点。 【知识模块】 作文
