Would you prefer a higher pay job with longer work time or an average pay job with normal work time.
托福独立写作范文【1】
People tend to have to different expectations out of a job, like personal satisfaction, higher pay, respect, and social recognition. Some people prefer to work long hours to pursue a higher salary while others tend to hold on a average paying job with normal work hours. If I have to face these two choices, I tend to choose to take a job with normal pay but more free time based on the following reasons.
Admittedly, monetary reward is indeed one of primary motivation to pursue a career, one needs money to cover daily expenses like room and board, utility bills, buy medical insurance, without money it is impossible for someone to live a decent life. However, it is not monetary benefit that gives an individual great personal satisfactions. Research that is done by lots of well-established professor in psychiatry has shown that the freedom to allocate your time and your intimacy with friends and families guarantee great personal happiness and satisfactions.
First off, spending too much time and working overtime can add more pressure and stress to one personal life and jeopardize their health. Lots of jobs are sedentary, like secretaries, lawyers, clerks, which pose great threat to their physical healthy. They might get dizzy, backache, and lack of energy. Other professions are even more competitive and intense, like stock broker, financial analyst who have to stare at a computer screen for more than 10 hours a day. It is not surprising to hear someone who has worked for 14 hours a day and several days in a row and eventually suffer from cardiac sudden death. It is clear that working overtime pose great threat to employees" healthy, which leads to sloppy working habits and negative attitude. The most unwanted scenario is the lack of morale in a professional environment. On the other hand, working normal hours makes the individual employee happier in their personal life and more productive in the working place.
Additionally, working overtime means that the individual will have to sacrifice much of their spare time devoted to boring and repetitive work. There are more meaningful stuff to do than working day and night, for instance, by choosing working normal hours one can develop a new skill or hobby, like learning how to play piano, play golf with a friend. Besides, working normal hours makes it possible for individuals to spend some quality with their families and maintaining a harmonious bond with families can be very important. Not only does good to the individual"s mental health, but also it will make one more productive in a professional setting.
In conclusion, it is more advisable to work average hours with normal pay than otherwise since more flexibility in working schedule means more quality time with families and friends, great personal satisfaction and productivity in working place and lower risk of physical and mental problems.
托福独立写作范文【2】
In the current society full of fierce competition, we can readily observe that landing an ideal job has become increasingly difficult, which forces us to a concession in the requirement of the job we want. When it comes to which is more appealing, a higher pay job with longer work time or an average pay job with normal work time, people varying in backgrounds and personalities may view the same issue from different angles. From my perspective, towards such a long-running tug-of-war, my choice will depends on what age I am.
On the one hand, during my twenties and thirties, my preference will be a higher pay job with longer work time. For one thing, as for young adults wrestling with various bills in daily life, the high salary will help them to relieve their financial pressure and thus meet their basic need of life. To be specific, the extremely high price of house in China has been beyond the affordable range of most people. In order to pay the rents or afford a house, young people needs desperately a large sum of money which can be earned in a decent job. For another, longer work time is not a big deal for the young, because they are so energetic and vigorous that a sound sleep can help them to restore their vitality. A good case in point is the experience my friend, Andy. As a broker in an Stock Exchange Company in Beijing, he has to deal with large quantities of data and keep close track of any events which may cause the fluctuation of stock price. Although the heavy pressure brought by his job often require him to work overtime and even around the clock, he never makes complaints because the exciting and adventurous experience from selling or buying stocks appeals him a lot.
On the other hand, n the other hand, when I am at the middle age or old age, an average pay job with normal work time will be much better. After accumulating fortunes in the early years of life, old-age people do not suffer from huge financial pressure so that low income will not affect their life greatly. As we know, the old have owned their own houses and are not interested in pursuing the latest electronic devices or fashionable clothes, thus decresing their living cost to a large extent. As a result, they can lead a relatively high-quality life without high wage. Also, older people are usually those who have got married or even have children, so spending more time accompanying their family members is of great significance. Undoubtedly, the job with normal work time can better satisfy the need of staying longer with their kids or spouse. During the stay, the emotional bond between them will become closer and more intimate.
Judging from what has been discussed above, we can draw the conclusion that my preference for a job varies according to what age group I am at.

考研英语应该重视语法复习
●抛弃语法，原何是正确率低的“罪魁祸首”
抛弃语法成为正确率低的“罪魁祸首”，这要从英语语法的重要性谈起，如果没有坚实的语法基础知识做可靠保证，那么考生就无法对完形填空所要求的语言形式以及整体结构做一个很好的思考;就无法在文章分析中把握语段一致性、连贯性，将逻辑层次理清。语法让我们的英语语言更具有系统性，试想，在试卷的作文中展现倒装、强调、比较、省略等等结构的闪光句型，势必会吸引阅卷老师的眼球。建立在扎实语法的基础上学习，能够有效帮助考生在完成考研英语的各个题型中顺利登顶。
●语法不牢，症结究竟在哪些方面
首先，语法不牢，源于考生们根深蒂固的母语情节，摆脱母语情节的窠臼，能帮助考生真正理清考研英语文章的真谛;由于考生们对语法的“一知半解”，使得考生无法将知识串联起来，所以具备英语完整的语法体系也是很重要的一点;对语句结构的不明确，使得诸如五四三二，即五大简单句、四大并列句、三大复合句、两大特殊句式“云山雾绕”，也是语法不牢固的一大症结。
●语法在手，长难句不再是“老大难”
正所谓，任何语言都离不开语法知识，一些考生喜欢凭语感来做题，语感的确是好东西，但是，都教授不得告诫各位考生，语感是一种玄妙的东西，在长难句的理解中，时而奏效时而不奏效，而语法才是最“靠谱”的东西，通过语法分析能将主谓宾以及从句进行有效分解，从而逐词逐句理解到位。在基础夯实阶段，熟悉语法，使长难句迎刃而解，不再是“老大难”问题。
恐惧是一个人生的主要课题，每一个人都有自己害怕面对的事物，怎样克服恐惧心理呢?以下是小编为你整理的关于克服恐惧的英语作文。
关于如何克服恐惧的作文
How to Overcome Fear
Everyone may meet difficulties when they deal with some problems. When we experience some situations which we cannot overcome at once, we will get nervous, and they may drive us to the distraction. Fear will bring us physical and mental torture. As a result, the case will get worse and worse. And we will be lake of confidence to finish the task. So learning how to overcome fear is particularly vital for us.
每个人可能都会在他们处理一些问题时会遇到困难。当我们经历一些我们不能立刻解决的问题的情况时，我们会变得紧张不安，并且这些情况会驱使我们注意力分散。恐惧将会带给我们身心折磨。结果，事情将会变得更加糟糕。我们也会缺乏自信完成我们的任务。所以说，学会如何克服恐惧对我们来说尤其重要。
Firstly, we must have a great control to let us calm down when we meet some emergency situations. Thus, our brain will get precious time to think about how to do with this terrible situation. On the contrary, if we are in a panic, the best chance to gain success will fly away. Although it may be difficult to do that, we should do it again and again, and then we will acquire enough experiences to overcome our fears.
首先，我们必须要有一个良好的控制力去让我们在遇到紧急情况时镇静下来。这样，我们的大脑也会有珍贵的时间去思考如何处理糟糕的情况。相反，如果我们陷入恐慌中，获得成功最好的机会将会飞走。尽管这样做会有些困难，但是我们应该反复训练自己去平静下来。这样，我们就会获得足够的经验去克服恐惧。
Secondly, it is also essential for us to know some good ways which can overcome fear. When you are in a hard situation, but there are some people who still speak negative words to you, just ignore them. You should tell yourself that it’s my own business, so I must deal with it by my heart, and I can’t be influenced by other persons. Psychological hint will become a strong motivation to you to solve your problems. Furthermore, you should focus on your mind to think of how to be out of the wood rather than waste time to do some unnecessary things.
其次，我们知道一些好的克服恐惧的方法也是非常重要的。当你处在一个困境时，并且还有人对你说一些消极的话时，你可以忽视他们，你应该告诉你自己，这是我自己的事情，所以我必须要用心做好它，我不能被别人影响。心理暗示将会成为一个强大的动力让你有信心去解决问题。还有就是，你应该集中注意力思考如何脱离困境而不是浪费时间去想一些没必要的事情。
Finally, we should open up our train of thought to think over the situation. And it is benefit for us to let our friends give us a hand. Surely, we must mainly depend on ourselves. Thus, we will overcome our fear, get a strong motivation, and gain a clear way to finish our tasks.
最后，我们应该打开我们的思路反复思考这个情况。请求朋友帮助对我们来说也是有益的。当然，我们主要还是要靠自己解决问题。这样，我们将会克服恐惧，得到强大的动力，清晰的方法去完成我们的任务。
In a word, we should have a good psychological quality to overcome fear.，and we need to learn how to be stronger.
总之，我们应该要有一个良好的心理素质去战胜恐惧，并且学习如何变得更加强大。
如何应对压力英语作文
How to Cope with Stress
With the development of society, the competition of the entire society is more and more intense, causing increasing pressure to people. Stress of study, work and life are ubiquitous, but how can we deal with it? Here are some tips that I hope can be useful.
随着社会的发展，全社会的竞争越来越激烈，给人们带来了越来越多的压力。学习，工作，生活上的压力是最普遍的，但是我们怎样才能应对它?以下是几点建议，希望对大家有用。
Firstly, keep good health. A healthy body is the premise to face presure. It’s the least capacity to cope with stress when a person is sick. Secondly, to accept the pressure. The reason why many people can not cope with stress is that they resist and escape it. Actually, there always is trouble and problems once we chose a path to go, because almost everything worth doing is not so easy. Thirdly, solve the problem, rather than complain about it. Many people complain about the surroundings and don’t think about the solutions when faced with problems. We all know that complaint can do nothing but only let you down. As long as the problem not solved, the pressure is always there. Fourthly, tell others your pressure and get help from them. Lots of pressure can’t be solved by our own and the rational way is talking the pressure to workmates or friends to get help from them. But the premise to do so is that we don’t intend to put pressure to others but to seek help and support to solve problems.
首先，保持健康。健康的体魄是面对压力的前提。当一个人生病的时候，应对压力的能力是最小的。其次，接受压力。人们不能够应对压力是因为他们抵抗和逃避压力。实际上，一旦我们选择了要走的路，总是会有麻烦和问题，因为几乎每一件值得做的是都不是那么容易的。再次，解决问题，而不是抱怨它。的那个面对问题的时候，很多人抱怨环境而不思考解决方法。我们都知道抱怨什么都解决不了，只会让你失望。只要问题没有解决，压力就一直在那里。最后，告诉别人你的压力，向别人寻求帮助。很多压力靠自己是解决不了的，理智的方法是向同事或者朋友倾诉，从他们那里得到帮助。但是这样做的前提是我们不是故意给别人压力，而是寻求帮助和支持以解决问题。
Of course, there also are some other ways to cope with stress, such as readjusting goal and expectation, playing games to relax, even shopping or eating. But no matter how, solving the problem that causes stress is the best way.
当然，还有其他应对压力的方法，比如重新调整目标和期望，玩游戏放松，甚至是购物或者吃东西。打那时不管怎样，解决引起压力的问题是最好的方法。
英语作文直面内在的敌人
Facing the Enemies Within
We are not born with courage, but neither are we born with fear. Maybe some of our fears are brought on by your own experiences, by what someone has told you, by what you’ve read in the papers. Some fears are valid, like walking alone in a bad part of town at two o’clock in the morning. But once you learn to avoid that situation, you won’t need to live in fear of it.
我们的勇气并不是与生俱来的，我们的恐惧也不是。也许有些恐惧来自你的亲身经历，别人告诉你的故事，或你在报纸上读到的东西。有些恐惧可以理解，例如在凌晨两点独自走在城里不安全的地段。但是一旦你学会避免那种情况，你就不必生活在恐惧之中。
Fears, even the most basic ones, can totally destroy our ambitions. Fear can destroy fortunes. Fear can destroy relationships. Fear, if left unchecked, can destroy our lives. Fear is one of the many enemies lurking inside us.
恐惧，哪怕是最基本的恐惧，也可能彻底粉碎我们的抱负。恐惧可能摧毁财富，也可能摧毁一段感情。如果不加以控制，恐惧还可能摧毁我们的生活。恐惧是潜伏于我们内心的众多敌人之一。
Let me tell you about five of the other enemies we face from within. The first enemy that you’ve got to destroy before it destroys you is indifference. What a tragic disease this is! “Ho-hum, let it slide. I’ll just drift along.” Here’s one problem with drifting: you can’t drift your way to the to of the mountain.
让我来告诉你我们面临的其他五个内在敌人。第一个你要在它袭击你之前将其击败的敌人是冷漠。打着哈欠说：“随它去吧，我就随波逐流吧。”这是多么可悲的疾病啊!随波逐流的问题是：你不可能漂流到山顶去。
The second enemy we face is indecision. Indecision is the thief of opportunity and enterprise. It will steal your chances for a better future. Take a sword to this enemy.
我们面临的第二个敌人是优柔寡断。它是窃取机会和事业的贼，它还会偷去你实现更美好未来的机会。向这个敌人出剑吧!
The third enemy inside is doubt. Sure, there’s room for healthy skepticism. You can’t believe everything. But you also can’t let doubt take over. Many people doubt the past, doubt the future, doubt each other, doubt the government, doubt the possibilities nad doubt the opportunities. Worse of all, they doubt themselves. I’m telling you, doubt will destroy your life and your chances of success. It will empty both your bank account and your heart. Doubt is an enemy. Go after it. Get rid of it.
第三个内在的敌人是怀疑。当然，正常的怀疑还是有一席之地的，你不能相信一切。但是你也不能让怀疑掌管一切。许多人怀疑过去，怀疑未来，怀疑彼此，怀疑政府，怀疑可能性，并怀疑机会。最糟糕的是，他们怀疑自己。我告诉你，怀疑会毁掉你的生活和你成功的机会，它会耗尽你的存款，留给你干涸的心灵。怀疑是敌人，追赶它，消灭它。
The fourth enemy within is worry. We’ve all got to worry some. Just don’t let conquer you. Instead, let it alarm you. Worry can be useful. If you step off the curb in New York City and a taxi is coming, you’ve got to worry. But you can’t let worry loose like a mad dog that drives you into a small corner. Here’s what you’ve got to do with your worries: drive them into a small corner. Whatever is out to get you, you’ve got to get it. Whatever is pushing on you, you’ve got to push back.
第四个内在的敌人是担忧。我们都会有些担忧，不过千万不要让担忧征服你。相反，让它来警醒你。担忧也许能派上用场。当你在纽约走上人行道时有一辆出租车向你驶来，你就得担忧。但你不能让担忧像疯狗一样失控，将你逼至死角。你应该这样对付自己的担忧：把担忧驱至死角。不管是什么来打击你，你都要打击它。不管什么攻击你，你都要反击。
The fifth interior enemy is overcaution. It is the timid approach to life. Timidity is not a virtue; it’s an illness. If you let it go, it’ll conquer you. Timid people don’t get promoted. They don’t advance and grow and become powerful in the marketplace. You’ve got to avoid over caution.
第五个内在的敌人是过分谨慎。那是胆小的生活方式。胆怯不是美德，而是一种疾病。如果你不理会它，它就会将你征服。胆怯的人不会得到提拔，他们在市场中不会前进，不会成长，不会变得强大。你要避免过分谨慎。
Do battle with the enemy. Do battle with your fears. Build your courage to fight what’s holding ou back, what’s keeping you from your goals and dreams. Be courageous in your life and in your pursuit of the things you want and the person you want to become.
一定要向这起敌人开战。一定要向恐惧开战。鼓起勇气抗击阻挡你的事物，与阻止你实现目标和梦想的事物作斗争。要勇敢地生活，勇敢地追求你想要的事物并勇敢地成为你想成为的人。
