Over the past Spring Festival, I got involved in a family dispute. Right before I got home, four satellite channels of CCTV were added to the 14 channels we had already had. In prime time at night, they all had interesting shows. Therefore, the five of us-my parents, my sisters and I-had to argue over what to watch. Finally, we agreed that we should watch the "most interesting" programme... If we could agree what that was.
However, all of us there remember that for a long time after we had TV, there were only one or two channels available. The increase in options reveals an important change in our life: the abundance of choice.
Fifteen years ago we all dressed in one style and in one colour. Today, we select from a wide variety of designs and shades.
Fifteen years ago, we read few newspapers. Today, we read English newspapers like the China Daily and the 21st Century, as well as various Chinese newspapers.
Fifteen years ago, English majors took only courses in language and literature. Today, we also study Western culture, journalism, business communications, international relations, and computer science.
The emergence of choices marks the beginning of a new era in China's history; an era of diversity, of material and cultural richness, and an era of the rebirth of the Chinese nation.
We enjoy the abundance of choice. But this has not come easily.
About 150 years ago, China was forced to open up its door by Western canons and gunboats. It has been through the struggle and sacrifice of generations that we finally have gained the opportunity to choose for ourselves. The policy of reform and openness is the choice that has made all the difference.
Like others of my age, I'm too young to have experienced the time when the Chinese people had no right to choose. However, as the next century draws near, it is time to ask: What does choice really mean to us young people?
Is choice a game that relies on chance or luck? Is choice an empty promise that never materializes? Or is choice a puzzle so difficult that we have to avoid it?
First, I would like to say: To choose means to claim opportunities.
I am a third-year English major. An important choice for me, of course, is what to do upon graduation. I can go to graduate school, at home or abroad. I can go to work as a teacher, a translator, a journalist, an editor and a diplomat. Actually, the system of mutual selection has allowed me to approach almost every career opportunity in China.
Indeed, this is not going to be an easy choice. I would love to work in such big cities as Beijing or Shanghai or Shenzhen. I would also love to return to my hometown, which is intimate, though slightly lagging in development. I would love to stay in the coastal area where life is exciting and fast-paced. I would also love to put down roots in central and western China, which is underdeveloped, but holds great potential.

good morning/afternoon/evening to mr.____(your teacher's name) and my friends.
i would like to introduce you a short novel named “the old man and the sea”.
it is written by ernest hemingway in cuba in 1951 and published in 1952.
the story of an aging, life-long fisherman who attempts to find himself, and hopefully a fish, on a fishing trip in the gulf waters off cuba.
after spending most of his life alone and losing his only companion who is a young cuban boy, the old man heads out to sea once again.
his 84 days without a notable catch end on this trip, but will he be able to defeat the odds after catching a gigantic marlin?
this short novel is universal in its consideration of the plight of an old man struggling against age, loneliness, mortality, humility and poverty to maintain his identity and dignity. apart from that, the cheerful and optimistic old man wants to reestablish his reputation in the community. besides, he also wants to ensure for all time his relationship with those he loves and to whom he hopes to paon everything he values the most. finally, he survives and wins the battle. this has shown his heroic struggle not only redeems himself but also inspires and spiritually enriches those around him.
thanks for your attention.
a common concept among some people is that opportunities are few. they always complain that opportunities never occur to them. they only admire those people who make a hit or succeed by seizing some opportunities, and always wonder why they are never given a good opportunity to show their talent.
another common notion is that there are opportunities everywhere. opportunity may occur to anybody at any time and under any circumstances as long as he/she keeps ma-ki-ng constant efforts. as a student, you can get to the top through your hard work. as a businessman, you can succeed through accurate calculation and with a complete certainty that you can make a profit.
in my opinion, opportunity favors only those who keep trying and who are ready for it. as the saying goes "god helps those who help themselves", so no matter whether there's opportunity or not, what we should do is to study, to learn and become learned people, only in this way can you seize your opportunity when it occurs. so never say there's no opportunity again, opportunities are around us.

水在顫抖,他們的靈魂依舊不朽;水在激涌,他們的精神仍然長存。心泉汩汩,流水潺潺,用心去聆聽,他們的人生流出一汪碧海;側(cè)耳去聆聽,他們的理想?yún)R成一灘小溪。——題記
汨羅江的守護(hù)高山流水,知音何在?弦聲已絕,如何獨(dú)生……從政的道路上,他始終一個(gè)人蹣跚前行,沒有朋友的陪伴,沒有知音的追隨。他的一生是在追求國家強(qiáng)盛的道路上輾轉(zhuǎn)反側(cè),莫大的猜疑、妒忌、排擠……“良禽擇木而棲,良臣擇主而事”,雖然君主剛愎自用,但他依舊選擇了追隨。內(nèi)心的懷才不遇始終縈繞,到頭來落得流放在外的結(jié)局。盡管這樣,他依然譜出了《離騷》的無韻,《九歌》的魅力出現(xiàn),《天問》的非凡問世,成為了文學(xué)史上一顆璀璨的明珠。國是他的根,文學(xué)創(chuàng)作是他的魂。他,有著山的堅(jiān)定與傲然;他,有著海的胸懷和坦然。他就是屈原——一個(gè)愛國與文學(xué)兼得的守護(hù)者。汨羅江的流水滾燙著……哦,原來有屈原的忠實(shí)守護(hù)。站在汨羅江岸,我聆聽到,一個(gè)愛國者內(nèi)心的無助與迷茫。

立于赤壁水前,我聆聽到,半個(gè)君王內(nèi)心的徘徊與滯留。
零丁洋的憤怒
山河破碎,身世浮沉,赤誠忠心,何留史冊(cè)……國家的危亡,民族的興旺,他深深牽掛?上,太多的苦難終究降臨,國勢(shì)危急,他也漂流四方,抗元的抱負(fù)終未圓滿實(shí)現(xiàn)。內(nèi)心難免惶恐萬分,為了祖國,他甘愿舍生取義。雖然事與愿違,但是,他的精神永遠(yuǎn)銘刻在我們心中,“人生自古誰無死,留取丹心照汗青”。∷奈膶W(xué)也讓我們暗暗佩服!墩龤飧琛返募ぐ号炫,《過零丁洋》的憤慨不平,《金陵驛》的沉郁悲壯。他,有著劍的銳利與徹寒;他,有著弓的回旋與正直。他就是文天祥——一個(gè)舍生取義卻事與愿違的肝膽烈士。零丁洋的水翻涌著,哦,原來有文天樣的憤怒。
停在零丁洋上,我聆聽到,一個(gè)以死明志的將軍內(nèi)心的激昂與澎湃。聽水之韻,思物之珍,認(rèn)真的聆聽,永遠(yuǎn)的堅(jiān)定。背起行囊,繼續(xù)前行,收獲人生的大海,聆聽碧綠的深潭。
