英语创新大赛展示• Informal Higher Education Serves Better• 　　• 　　 Although most students are still fighting for the diploma in universities after graduation from high school, it has been a

clear trend that more and more students choose to start their working career earlier and receive informal higher education, which in my opinion, serves better to build more competitive and suitable personal abilities.

• 　　 Informal higher education offers better opportunities to adapt to social life for students, and help them understand better the reality of their social community and responsibilities they are to take. Compared with those who spend entirely their time on the campus, students who take evening classes could contact with more people, develop their communication skills and social behaviors during working hours. They know better how cruel and realistic the society is and that it is your power and capabilities that only speak. They understand and adapt better to the pressure of life’s difficulties which in universities could hardly be realized.

• 　　 Secondly, after experiencing real working life, those who attend correspondence courses would know better what kind of knowledge and abilities they must master, which definitely help them in future advancement and career choices. Suppose you’re a graduate from high school and become an assist of a car repairing workshop. Then you’ll have to know how the engine and different parts of the car works and how to deal with various emergent problems. Therefore, evening classes would enable you to acquire more specialized knowledge which are fit to you. However, in universities, you have to learn a great many courses, some of which are comparatively useless and can even make you bewildered to the future.

• 　　 Furthermore, as they have more time to manage for themselves, students drop higher education in universities could earn some money and gain earlier start in career. These will ease their families’ burdens and satisfy their desire for basic money needs. As a matter of fact, nowadays, more than a few American teens abandon university’ s education and try to become a worker like air-conditional air-conditioner repairman who can earn as much as $ 30, 000 for the first year. Thus, their decisions benefit themselves and their families.

• 　　 To conclude from all the facts talked above, we can safely arrive at the summary that informal higher education is more efficient and serves better. It makes you ahead of others in career development with more competitive skills, fit knowledge, precious experiences of social life and more leisure to earn some essential financial supports. As we’ll one day indulge ourselves walk into the realistic society, informal higher education serves better for our present and future development.

英语创新大赛展示 Fruit & the Vitamin Medicine 　　 With the world developing at high speed, more and more young people take part in higher education. Some of th

em choose to go to universities, and the others joined evening classes and open universities or took correspondence courses. I think, if we put the formal university education as the fruits we eat and the informal higher education would be like the vitamin medicine. Both of them could give us what we need.

　　 Let’s see two examples: The first one is my elder sister, who studied very well and went into Beijing University with a high mark. Now, after the four-year university life, she was employed by a lawyer firm and makes a large sum of money every year.

　　 Another example is a girl who used to work in my father’s bar. She was a country girl, and she worked hard but got little money, so under my father’s encouragement, she attended an evening class in spare time. The first two years was a hard time, because on one hand, she must learn knowledge in the evening when she was very tired after one day's work; On the other hand, she had to make money to pay for the evening class. But then her way was wider and wider, and now she found a better job in a small company and can offer much more money to her poor family.

　　 In my opinion, even both the girl and my sister got a good job at last, but I still think that attending formal university is better. Because in universities we could make more friends, we could get more chances to communicate with the experienced professors, we could get more ways to receive information of our future jobs, and we could also send ourselves into the colorful groups in the university so that we could have a happier higher educated life. But in the informal education, there could not be so much fun.

　　 Though I thought like this, but I have to say equally that both fruit and vitamin medicine can give us the vitamins we need, the only difference between them is that some people love fruits and the others may think having medicine is easier. So whatever you choose, the formal university education or the informal higher education, the most important is that you can get the knowledge you wanted, isn't it?

英语创新大赛展示 Failure Leads to Success 　　 Staring at my marks, I was trembling. The highlighted ‘50’ was like a bolt from the blue, which sugges

ted I utterly failed. However, to my astonishment, my mother didn’t keep a straight face with my paper in hand. Slowly she said, “It’s compulsory to face the music, boy. Always remember: Failure leads to success.” Ever since then, I committed those words to memory to stand up again after failure.

　　 My dear friends, failure is not dire. What really awesome is giving yourselves over to the bad mood after failure. It’s a common sense that everybody wants to end up in success, so sparing no effort to work hard becomes a corollary. In history, examples of peoples who succeeded after failure were as many as stars can .

　　 For instance, Edison was kicked out of school on account of his bad grades. However, he immediately overcame the sadness and committed himself to scientific invention. Then, as we all know, he became the greatest inventor after failure and was universally highly thought of. From this, we can see, failure never defeated Edison. On the contrary, failure turned into the power of his success.

　　 On top of that, I want to mention Alert Einstein, whose life was considered a downright failure by his teachers. Alert’s teacher used to maintain that the boy was too iconoclastic and inevitable to become a philistine. Alert took a very view of that. He developed his interest in physics and tried his best to do research on some cosmopolitan problems. At last, his “Theory of Relativity” made the world convinced that he was successful.

　　 Depending on my personal experience and emotional concern, failure is totally the darkness before dawn. If we pull ourselves out of the black abyss, we will see the sun shining above the horizon.” God helps those who help themselves.” Only when we help ourselves out of failure, can we eventually achieve success.

英语创新大赛展示 Failure and Success 　　 Thomas Edison, one of the greatest scientists ever happened in the world, had experie

nced failure many times, more than we can ever think of. In inventing the light bulb, he tried more than 2,000 materials, yet they all failed. Though this might be enough to deprive the hope of success from anyone, it didn’t discourage Edison. He went on trying until he found the right material. He achieved success after thousands of times of failures.

　　 In real life, we all have to experience failure. Nobody can be successful all his life without meeting even one downfall. We may feel happy when we succeed and are sad when we fail. However, the important thing is that we shouldn’t be discouraged or give up hope when we meet failure. Failure is always on our way to success, yet we have to overcome that difficulty to achieve our goal.

　　 Jay Chou is a good example. Everyone knows the singer Jay Chou now, but only a few years ago, he was just an ordinary musician who wrote songs for other singers. His music wasn’t accepted at first because it was regarded as “weird”. Jay, however, didn’t give up. He continued with his music until success finally knocked at the door.

　　 Stephen Zhou Xing Chi is another persistent man not discouraged by failure. Before he became a world figure, he could only play small parts in films. What’s more, his acting skills weren’t recognized by his fellow actors. The times of failure and difficulties he faced were unbelievable. Stephen, however, didn’t give up. He held on to his dreams until the days of glory finally arrived.

　　 Failures are unavoidable if we are to succeed. We should be adamant enough as not to be discouraged, persistent enough as not to give up and diligent enough to overcome the barriers of failure. If we can do that, we will find that success will light our way.
