Perhaps he will give her some work to do in her vacation. Today, nearly everyone has a cell phone. Cell phones have greatly changed our
7、life. In the past, when we had no cell phones, it was not very easy to stay in touch with people living in another place. Mails are too slow, and traditional phones are inconvenient. But cell phones have solved all these problems. You can send text, voice or video in a very fast manner. Besides, bec
8、ause people usually carry their cell phone with them, its very easy to contact them. Cell phones have solved many problems, but they have also created a few new ones. For example, it has become hard to really stay alone with a cell phone in your pocket, just as shown in the picture. In general, cell
9、 phones have made life easier and more convenient. We must get used to it. 【知识模块】 作文 2 【正确答案】 On Companies Monitoring Their Employees Electronically The picture shows two employees in front of a computer monitor. According to their conversation, their boss likes to keep a close eye on his employees.
10、 Even when he isnt around, he uses a screen saver to make the employees feel that he is still watching. Some employers have grown the habit of watching their employees work. They have different reasons. Some think that if they dont watch, the employees will waste time at work or spend time on someth
11、ing else, like playing games. Some others think that the employees will work harder if they receive a little pressure from their boss. In my opinion, watching the employees is quite unnecessary. Firstly, it gives them the feeling that the boss doesnt trust them. Secondly, they may also feel that the
12、ir privacy is not respected. These bad feelings wont help them work better. If I were the boss, I would stop watching my employees, and let them work without unnecessary pressure. 【知识模块】 作文 3 【正确答案】 Importance of Work-Life Balance The conversation in the picture seems to take place in an office. A b
13、oss is asking an employee to stay late that night, because he wants her to attend a talk on work-life balance.

14、ople must work overtime to accomplish their work. However, peoples time is limited. If they put more time on work, they will have less time for their personal life. They will have less time to rest, to relax, and to recover from the fatigue of work. In my opinion, this is not only unhealthy, but har
15、mful to them. If they continue to work overtime, they will become more and more tired, and finally fall ill. I think employers should take employees health into consideration, and give them enough time to rest. 【知识模块】 作文 4 【正确答案】 On Cheating An exam is going on in the picture. It is an ethics exam,
16、but a student is cheating. If he can cheat in an ethics exam, what else cant he cheat on? I think what he is doing is seriously wrong. Some students like to cheat in exams. They say that exams are only a waste of time, so is preparing for them. As long as they can pass, they dont care about the meth
17、od. Cheating can save a lot of time. If they do it carefully, they wont get caught. So why dont they cheat? In my opinion, they made two mistakes. Firstly, the purpose of exams is to test whether they have learned the necessary knowledge. If they only pass exams by cheating, then there is no point i
18、n taking the courses. Secondly, exams are not only tests for knowledge, but personality. If they cheat, then they fail to be honest. They must stop cheating. 【知识模块】 作文 5 【正确答案】 Computer Is Changing the Way We Learn In the picture, a little kid is asking his father to let him use the computer, becaus
19、e he needs to do his homework on it. From the picture, we can learn that the way todays children learn things is quite different from what we used to do. When I was a kid, all I had were books.

20、ot recently. Some schools are using digital textbooks, and students are using computer to do homework. I think its a good change. The e-books have a lot of advantages.
