Women seemed to be the least important creatures in the world in ancient that time the criterion whether a woman is good or not is obedience. A woman was to be obedient to her parents in her youth, to her husband once she got married and to her children in her old that time, women were subordinate to men, having no humanity at all, not to mention the so-called liberty or equality.
As time goes by,tremendous changes have happened to women＇s status, from women being permitted to receive education together with men to being able to go out to work in the society. Nowadays, such cases are ordinary that women compete with men,work with men,and even take the en＇s status arrives at an unprecedented high level, which can be called as equality to some extent.
However, the situation is not so optimistic as the majority of women think. In effect, women are far from equal to ally, men＇s superiority is inveterate, which can＇t be shaken overnight. Though the society keeps on saying women should be treated equally as men, the idea that men are better than women still exerts a subtle influence on people＇s minds. When opening newspapers, how many “only men are eligible” are there in advertisements for employees? That is the le tend to value men, not women, at least subconsciously, men are super I don＇t think the concept is based on science. It can＇t be denied that men take a dominant position in strength, logical thinking etc.， but there are characteristic advantages women have anyhow, in which men fail to contend with them. Consequently,men are no better than women. Policewomen, women pilots,and women astronauts.。. all these will prove the ability women own to the public. As a result, women get more and more aware of their own values. Despite its hardships and high costs, lots ofthem are trying their best to change the prejudice of the society.
However, what I want to point out here is that not only men have the prejudice, but some women themselves do too. Eyen those who claim to long for equality with men have the double standard of equality. On one hand, they demand equal opportunity; on the other hand, they take “lady first” for granted,considering that it is perfectly justified for men to open door for them, offer their own seats to them, pay for dinner for it make sense? How can you ask others to treat you equally while you yourself have admitted the inequality in advance?
In short, I think as long as our sense doesn＇t completely change, the real equality between men and women won＇t come.
When I was a little girl, I always wanted to go to college. Now I am a freshman of a key university. I have asked myself the same question so many times：Why I go to college? You may say: you go to college just because you want to have a good job after graduation. Well, why I come to college is not for one single reason, but for many.
The major reason is that I need to further my education and know more about the outside world. In high school, I was always feeling not enough to get knowledge from the textbooks and I didn’t have enough time to travel to see the outside world. But in the college, I have abundant time to read the books I’m interested in and travel to different places to broaden my horizon.
Moreover, college is such an ideal place to make new friends who come from different places and I can learn about the different culture. As I am a typically southerner, I find there are many differences between north and south after I come to college, such as the way they talk, and the food they used to eat. Before I went to college, I admit I never pay attention to these. And I don’t want to be a person with a tunnel vision; I want to make more friends during the four years.
Last but not least, staying the university can give me enough time to prepare when I step into the society, I can do some part-time job and get myself ready. With the working experience and degree, I can find an ideal job. I know it is going to be harder when I graduate from college, but I’m not afraid. I’ll spare no efforts to make my dream come true.
I really enjoy the life in college. And I will learn experience and challenge myself in this four year and be a better man.
當我還是個小女孩的時候，我就一直想要讀大學。現在，我已經是一名重點大學的新生了。我曾經問過我自己同樣的問題很多遍：為什麼我要上大學？你也許會説：你讀大學只是為了找一份好工作。我讀大學只是為了不僅僅是因為這個原因，還有其他原因。
讀大學的主要原因是我需要繼續深造並更多的瞭解外面的世界。在高中，我總是感覺是學習課本上的知識遠遠不夠，而且我也沒有很多的時候去旅遊。
但是在大學，我擁有足夠多的時間去閲讀我自己喜歡的'書，去不同的地方旅遊以此開闊我的眼界。除此之外，大學是一個可以結交來自五湖四海的朋友的好地方。我還可以瞭解不同的背景文化。作為一個典型的南方人，來到大學之後，我發現南北之間有很多不同。比如説話的方式、平常喜歡吃的東西。在沒上大學之前，我可是從來沒有注意到這些。我也不願意成為目光短淺的人，我要在大學四年認識更多的朋友。
最後，讀大學讓我有更多的時間來為進入社會做準備。我可以做些兼職為將來做打算。有了工作經驗和學位證，我就能找到一份理想的工作。我知道未來的路會更艱辛，但是我不怕。我會不予餘力的努力實現我的夢想。
我很享受我的大學生活。在這大學的四年中，我會努力去學習、去體驗、去挑戰自我，成為一個更好的人。
City Problems Nowadays, millions of migrant workers flock into cities in search of jobs and better living. However, with the sharp rise in the urban population, many problems arise in the development of cities.
Firstly, cities become more and more crowded, putting much pressure upon transportation, housing, sanitation, education, employment and so on. City services and facilities have been strained to a breaking point. Secondly, a growing number of private cars emit huge amount of carbon dioxide, leaving the air mercilessly polluted. What is more, the city is also threatened by rising crime. Not a single day passes without the report of someone being robbed, kidnapped or murdered.
Last but not least, city-dwellers are not only separated from the natural world but also isolated from each other, even not knowing the name of their next-door neighbor.
All these problems have harmed the attractiveness of the city. Unless there is some improvement, more and more people may seek to live in the suburbs.
