杂思(400字)作文
精选作文:杂思(400字)作文
一次帮朋友收拾行李时，无意邂逅了一个杯子，看起来没那么美妙，甚至令人生厌，可就是那么妙不可言，这种搪瓷早已流逝在岁月中。
我将它捧在手里，污涩的彩漆残花枯叶般凋零。
朋友忍俊不禁：是我爷爷的，你喜欢就拿走好了，倒也真有点舍不得呢。最后故意轻叹一口气，云淡风轻，不见得多么悲哀。
它拙劣的表面在我的轻抚下显得那么畏缩不堪，古旧与残破像极了饱经风霜的流浪艺人或是风烛残年的老者，由远及近，响起了跌宕起伏的音节。它们以蹒跚摇摆的步履走过岁月。
我听到了杯子苍老的沉吟。
砰！一声闷响，激得四下寂静。
我寻回着，杯子并未支离破碎，至少给了失神的我一个安慰，我不禁为它的顽强感到庆幸。
生在黑暗里的花，孕育着短暂而灿烂的片刻，持续了几个世纪。
那杯子没有荣光，却又响应着世界，它的存在。
当我再次拿起它时，竟有一种不可思议的错觉。
它完整的背后埋藏着看似残缺破碎的某种人生。

some people claim that the disadvantages of the car are more than the advantages,do you agree or disagree?
范文1
the birth of cars have made an enormous change to our life.in the past,we travel from one place to another only by foot,nowaday,cars can do it .its goes withour saying that the invention of cars bring great benefit to all of us.but as proverb goes:no garden without weeds.car is not exception.
owing a car has a lot of advantages.for one thing,car provide us the most convient way of transportation.we can get around freely without spenting a lot of time.emotionally,i always found driving is so exciting.for another,its the comfortable to drive a car.In winter.drivers always can stay warm and dry even in rainy whether,in addition,drivers are usually safe in their cars when they are out at night.
Cars bring the human merits,their side-effects graudually come to the surface.firstly,to run a car need a lot of oil,which is getting less and less.the increasing number of cars contribute the lacking of energy.secondlly,as more and more cars are used,the traffic ecpecially in big cities is getting heaver and heavier,which lead to the serious social problem--traffic jam.in addition,the inceasing numbers of cars ,which excaust sent a huge quantities of carbon monoxide into atmosphere.it make the air of cities unbreathabe,it strip people contact with frensh air.
therefore,the new energy should be explored to replace the oil so that our envionmental pollution can be avioded .and the strick law should be issued to keep the numbers of cars under control.thus,our heavier traffic can be solluted!

Private cars vs Public traffic
As traffic problems become more and more serious in many cities of developed and developing countries, their governments have to try hard and loads of money and energy have been spent to deal with them.
Firstly, it is not efficient for the commuters to use their private cars to and back from their workplaces. Occasionally we can see they have to sit on the wheels wasting time and fuel in a heavy traffic jam. At the same time, through burning the fossil fuels, green house gas CO2, CO1, acid rain gas SO2, fumes and dusts are being released into the atmosphere, all of which heavily overload the environment. Thirdly, with the increase of private cars, the road traffic accidents are also rise dramatically. For example, in a city with 5000 cars, there will be at least 250 accidents happening everyday, which also burden the public healthy services.
On the contrary, expected public traffic may be an ideal solution to these problems. For example city buses and railways are widely used or being constructed by many cities. People can take buses easily, which can be found every 10 minutes or less in the peak time. Actually, Nottingham Transport Company is building its own light railway in the city, which is announced by the speak man of the company, “It will be completed in the next year, the tickets will be very competitive and at the same time the travel will be very safe and comfortable.”
On the other hand, public traffic had its own disadvantages. Usually it cannot provide door-to-door service. It is inconvenient to go shopping by public vehicles. Sometimes you must wait a long time for the train. And quite a lot of people prefer to enjoy driving.
In conclusion, developing the public traffic is a useful approach to deal with these difficulties. One possible way, if not the best, is to taxi private cars heavily and use these revenues to provide citizens cheaper public traffic services.
范文3
With the development of science and technology, the cars have already become the important component in our daily life gradually. Cars make our life convenient and swift. However, too many cars have caused very serious social problems. Some people claim that the disadvantages of car are more than the advantages. I doubt whether the argument can bear much analysis.
Since one century [ago], the auto industry has [been] developed at full speed worldwide, and has brought the enormous progresses to our life. For example, the car is the most convenient tool of transportation. We can [be] on and off duty by car every day, we can go to travel by car on the vacation, we can utilize the cars to deal with some emergency too. The car [is] playing an important role in our daily life. They make our rhythm of life faster and faster, make our business become more and more efficient.
On the other hand, the development of the automobile has brought a lot of infant industry to people, Give people countless employment opportunities too. Such as, manufacturing industry, repairing industry and maintaining industry. We are enjoying the convenience that the cars bring to us;
at the same time we can utilize the auto industry to support ourselves.However, we can not ignore that too many cars cause enormous social problems, for example, traffic jam, air pollution, traffic accident, to which we have to find a solution.
In a word, the cars have brought enormous change to our life;
the advantages are far more than the disadvantages. We should recognize the merit of the cars, and do our best to solve the problems. If so, our life will be brighter.

范文1
Nowhere in the world has the issue of tobacco been so much debated as in
our society. Nowadays, tobacco is more harmful than drug to people’s
health, therefore many people think that smoking is legal that is a direct and
primary reason to induce this kind of problem. The above point is certainly
true;
this essay will outline three reasons.
The main reason is that tobacco is a silent killer to smokers. Tobacco is
known to be the probable cause of some 25 different diseases, and for some,
such as lung cancer, bronchitis and emphysema, it is the main cause.
According to a WHO report four million people die yearly from tobacco-relate
d diseases, that is one death every eight seconds. Tobacco is significantly
becoming a greater cause of death and disability than any other single cause.
Another reason is that more and more young people are under 18 years old who smoke cigarette have been blinded by the deceit of tobacconists. Tobacco among adolescents remains stubbornly persistent. Smoking among adolescents rose in the 1990s in several developed countries， such as China,Vietnam and Thailand . While new markets are being opened by the tobacco industry actions, old markets have not been closed. Tobacco is a global threat.
Last but not the least reason is the increase in cigarette smuggling. Because
of tobacco smuggling, the legal retailing and distribution systems are badly
affected, and faced with increased lawlessness and heavy tax losses. This be
havior severely affects the economy.
In conclusion, the tobacco should be considered illegal. Perhaps a pack of
cigarettes is less harmful than another drug, but tobacco is actually the
biggest killer of all the drugs.
=================================================
范文2
Advertisements of tobacco and those of “smoking is harmful”are often seen
together. But there has been an on-going argument about whether or not
tobacco should be forbidden and made illegal. I have always believed that
smoking should be illegal for the following reasons.
First, smoking does great harm to human health and causes many diseases.
It is reported that more than 70% of lung cancer sufferers are smokers, and
the average life-span of smokers is seven years less than that of non-
smokers. Moreover, it hurts not only smokers, but also the ones around the
smokers. Many researchers claim that breathing “second-hand smoke” may
be even more harmful than smoking.
Second, many social problems and disasters can be attributed to smoking.
For instance, many wives cannot bear their husbands’ smoking all the time,
which causes many quarrels, or even divorces. Furthermore, the biggest fire
disaster in China, the Daxinganling fire disaster, was caused by a burning
cigarette end, and the cost of the resulting loss was unimaginable.
Last, smoking tobaccos is a main source of air pollution.A magazine said that
for every cigarette smoked each day,a whole tree is needed to clean the air.
In other words, smoking one less cigar every day equals planting a tree. It
is a brilliant contribution to the earth we are living on.
In a word, all the above demonstrate that smoking harms yourselves as well
as your neighbors, pollutes the air we ourselves are breathing, and even
agitates the social peace. So, in my opinion, tobacco should be strictly
forbidden, and smoking should be made illegal.
范文3
there has long been controversy over the legality and apparent acceptance of tobacco in society .some hold that cigarettes and other tobacco containing products should be banned, that is, treated as narcotics.personally,i agree with this point of view for the following reasons:
although cigarettes do not offer as intense an effect as drugs like heroin and cocaine,they rank higher in the level of dependence it creates in the user.thousands of smokers try to rid themselves of cigarettes but cannot,because of the physiological dependence they developed,chiefly imputable to its chemical nicotine.this explains why smokers continue their habit despite the numerous health warnings. furthermore,medical science has now proved beyon
d a doubt that smoking kills.with all the other causes of preventable deaths such as alcohol,illegal drugs,aids,suicide,road accidents,fire,and guns,cigarettes still account for more preventable deaths than all of those combined.
more disturbingly,whilst the use of heroin is dangerous solely to the users,the use of tobacco endangers those who are in their vicinity as well. this phenomenon, known as passive smoking, nulls the counter-argument that putting one's own health at risk through smoking should be up to one's own individual choice.reports have shown that the amount of second-hand smoke inhaled by a typical nonsmoker is equivalent to one cigarette smoked per day,and what is more,passive smoking can increase a nonsmoker's chance of getting cancer by ten to thirty two per cent.
there are those who will say that the black market created by outlawing tobacco will produce deadlier cigarettes because the product standards of the bootleggers are not as high.however,we should all bear in mind that legal cigarettes cause roughly four hundred thousand deaths a year.it is hard to imagine the limited distribution provided by the criminal underworld could compete with this tragic figure.
to sum up, the harm visited upon our society by tobacco usage is substantial.there will be no solution other than to control tobacco much in the same way that the government now controls drugs which could allow people to remain attentive to the seriousness of the effects of these substances,and hopefully to prohibit their usage.
范文4
Apparently, it would seem that tobacco is totally different substance from drugs, and it can be used freedom by public. In fact, however, our authority should make tobacco illegal as well as drugs, and using of tobacco should be controlled strictly.
Tobacco only can be used for research and medical purpose. As far as I am concerned, as a kind of dope, tobacco has been widely used to help patients alleviate their pain in surgery. At the same time, ordinary people should not be allowed to access it legally for two main reasons.
Among countless factors which influence my inclination, there is a most conspicuous one: it is harmful that smokers addict to tobacco. Many decades ago, scientists have already found that there is a definite link between smoking and bronchial troubles, cardiac disease and lung cancer. More seriously, it not only has negative influence for smokers, but others living or working in same surrounding, even the next generation of a smoking pregnant women may be harmed by so-called “second hand smoking”. Research shows that sometimes “second hand smoking” is more dangerous than smoking directly, because, at least smokers can get the protection from filter tips to some extent. Thus, compared to the hazard of drugs, tobacco can involve more other innocent people and harm their health unknowingly.
The second aspect relates to the problem that our natural resources and money are wasted senselessly during the course of planting, transporting and manufacturing tobacco. In light of a statistics, China consumes nearly 1,000 tons of wood fibers to produce cigarettes annually. Besides, the investment absorbed by tobacco manufacturers every year, is enough to solve all financial troubles that higher education have to face. Obviously, if tobacco is banned by our governments, it means that considerable money will be saved.
In summary, judging from all the evidence offered, we may safely arrive at the conclusion that tobacco should be forbidden as well as drugs except for a few special purposes, such as research and medicine.
补充
With the development of society, our life and working pressure are greater and greater. In this way, a lot of people have become smokers. Tobacco, as a kind of drugs, prevails in the society. Some people hold the opinion that tobacco should be given freedom be use, but others, in contrast, deem it should be made illegal as the same way as other drugs and that is also my point.
Medical science proves that smoking can cause the heart diseases, lung cancer, and the immune system diseases. These diseases are all mankind's healthy enemies. The statistics have sho

子题：监狱除了惩罚犯罪，还有什么功能？降低犯罪的最佳方法是延长监狱星期吗？刑满释放人员再犯罪率很高，为什么，如何解决？你认为罪犯应该送到监狱还是应该做一些社区工作或学习一些技能？
八、文化、语言、旅游、全球化

母题：Multi-cultural societies, in which there is a mixture of different ethnic peoples, bring more benefits than drawbacks to a country. To what extent do you agree or disagree? (060825)
提示：多元文化multiculturalism的好处是促进文化的融合，鼓励思维的多样性，带动社会创新。而缺点则可能导致文化同化cultural assimilation，会导致民族间的cultural conflict.
子题：游客是否应当遵守当地的风俗习惯，还是应该让当地人接受文化差异？外来移民应该接受当地文化还是作为一个独立的群体过不同的生活？
2、语言应当受到保护吗？
母题1：Every year several languages die out. Some people think that it is not important and that life will be made easier if there are few languages in the world. To what extent do you agree or disagree? (041030)
提示：尽管语言单一性语言与文化息息相关，语言的灭绝就是人类文化多样性cultural diversity的丢失。语言就是一种思维方式，语言的消失就意味着人类将会失去一种思维模式thinking pattern，失去一种认识世界的角度perspective to recognize the world.
子题：语言和文化消失的原因是什么，如何预防？（提示：全球化）把英语作为一种全球通用语言好不好？学习一个地区的语言是否要同时学习它的文化？要不要创造一门新的语言来便利人们的交流？（提示：世界语Esperanto）政府是否应该投资保护语言？（提示：与政府类话题结合）

4、要不要保护老建筑？
母题：Some people think that too much money has been spent looking after and repairing old buildings, so we should knock down old buildings and build modern ones instead. To what extent do you agree or disagree? (110428)
提示：要不要花钱保护老建筑？这类话题和语言类话题、教育类话题中的“要不要学习历史”这道题目类似，因为建筑也是历史的见证者，保存历史建筑就能够让后人了解到先人的文化，了解历史才能帮助人们更好地把握将来。
子题：是否要把新的建筑建成传统的样式来保护文化文化认同感cultural identity？建筑物的实用价值要比美观更重要，因此建筑师不用操心把建筑物建成艺术作品，你同意吗？

4.Some people think that the range of technology available to individuals makes the increasing of gaps between rich people and poor people. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this opinion?
The past decades have seen a rapid leap in the morden technology, not only in the field as distant as the outerspace, but also in areas available to individuals. The change happened around us has surely led to the increasing of gaps between the rich and the poor more or less.
First of all, unemployment has been expanded by technical improvement. It is no wonder that computers calculate more precisely than human beings and allows people to set down the operating process just by pressing a couple of buttons, as a result, workers are substituted by those cold iron machines, which increase the unemployment rate naturally. However, entrepreneurs amass fabulous wealth at the meantime. In other words, the rich become richer, the poor become poorer.
Next, take the car industry as an example, luxury cars, like Benz and Ferrari, are the most treasured possession of the rich, on the contrary, a poor man can never afford to them. The cars are no longer a simple kind of transportation tools, but a symbol of status and wealth. Gaps are enlarged obviously compared with several years ago, when those high-tech products had not appeared.
Last but not the least, gap is a wide notion including both material part and spiritual part. The modern technology has separated the rich and the poor into two circles, between which the overlap is smaller and smaller. How could a poor man share the topic about the latest ipad with a rich man? Therefore, the distance in their minds goes further.
However, there are variables. Technical improvement is aiming at better lives on the whole.
A harmonious society is expected by progress in the technology and it has indeed narrowed the gap in certain aspects such as the cheaper digital facilities. After all, I hope to see the decreasing trend in the near future as this is the right direction for modern technology to go in.
