　　This time of year most students are focused on meeting new friends, joining new activities and upcoming classes. Thoughts of the past easily drift away while future exploits receive the most attention. But as you busy yourself with the new semester, pause a moment to remember the famous writer, Lu Xun, who would have celebrated his 124th birthday today.

　　In commemoration of this great mans life, the Book Club has organized a guest speaker from Peking University to come speak to students about some of Lu Xuns unpublished memoirs. The lecture will be in Classroom 204 in the main building, starting at 7:00 pm.

　　Such an academic lecture might not seem like the most appealing way to spend a Friday evening, but it promises to be an evening that will both entertain and inform even the most seasoned students of Chinese history.

　　5：Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the title Should Olympic Athletes Get High Salaries according to the following OUTLINE given in Chinese. Your composition should have no fewer than 120 words.

　　1: 雅典奧運會后，關于獲獎運動員高薪的問題引起了社會的廣泛關注。

　　2：有些人支持這種做法，認為運動員們付出了很多，贏得回報;有些人則持反對意見。

　　3：我的觀點

　　After the Olympic Games in Athens, Greece, the topic of whether it is fair for athletes to pocket large sums of money from their Olympic participation is arousing more and more interest from the public.

　　Those who support high salaries for these athletes may offer some of the following reasons. Firstly, just as the old saying goes, no pain, no gain. The athletes in the Olympic Games must have undergone painstaking physical and psychological training. It naturally follows that they deserve commensurate compensation for these sacrifices. Whats more, they make significant contributions to a positive international reputation for their home countries. This gives them yet another reason to deserve monetary compensation in addition to the advantages already offered them. The main reason that the naysayers often have is that they do little to boost the national economy directly, and thus should not receive compensation of the monetary kind. Even the naysayers admit, however, that these athletes do offer a lot of positive encouragement to young people in persuading them to participate in physical activity.

　　As for me, I side with the supporters of greater compensation for Olympic athletes. The more we give, the more we deserve to have. On account of all the time and energy they spend in rigorous training, I firmly believe that they should get high salaries.

　　6. Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the title Immoral Behavior in Public according to the following OUTLINE given in Chinese. Your composition should be no fewer than 120 words.

　　1：我們經常在公共場合見到各種不道德的行為，敘述你的一次相關經歷。

　　2：這些不文明的行為會有哪些影響。

　　3：我們應該怎樣改善這種現象。

　　Immoral Behavior in Public

　　To witness immoral behavior in public, one need only visit the Beijing subway. I still remember the first time I took the Beijing subway. It was an early morning. I was in a hurry to go to school. When I was trying to get a ticket, I found a lot of people waiting in front of me, but nobody was in the line.

　　Immoral behaviors in public exert a series of problems. One of the most serious ones is that it may exert a negative impact on our sense of social responsibility. We will keep ignoring other peoples rights and feelings, and in turn, we too will be disrespected some day.

　　The improvement of this phenomenon is certainly not easy. With an eye on practical implementation and cost effectiveness, I propose that society make it clear in every way that people who fail to respect the common good will be seriously punished. Stricter policies for this should be made to correct this phenomenon as soon as possible.

　　3. 我的看法

　　It is a new thing that Chinese on-campus college students are legally allowed to get married before they complete their courses. Many people applaud / welcome this new development while others have expressed their concern about this.

　　Those who take sides against this new trend believe that college students will inevitably have less time and energy for their academic life because married students have more real-life problems to deal with than those unmarried ones.

　　One common argument, however, for on-campus college students marriage is that a number of students do have a desire for an ideal marriage. Now that they have come of age, they are entitled to such happiness.

　　Of the two views discussed above, Im in favour of the former. My reason is that on-campus students are laden with academic tasks. If one gets married now, he or she has to work much harder than any other student because they have to solve their financial problems at the same time. As a married couple, for instance, they are supposed to rent a room in or outside the university, which will naturally add to their spending.

　　A Quarrel with My Roommate

　　The other week I had a bitter quarrel with one of my roommates. Six of us live in small room about eight square meters, desperate for more space.

　　Weeks ago, one of my roommates brought in a very large suitcase and placed it under her bed, but days later she found something wrong with her suitcase. As we live on the ground floor, her case soon got wet. She took it out and, after drying it up, she/he just put it on her desk because she had no other choices. I happened to be opposite her desk and her suitcase was so large that it not only occupied the whole of her desk but half of mine as well. I was very much annoyed, so I angrily pushed it forward without first talking to her about it. I pushed a bit too hard and the case fell off her desk, messing up everything it contained. On seeing this, she flew into a temper and angrily shouted at me. The quarrel started and lasted about two hours.

　　When I calmed down days later, I thought over the quarrel and began to see something. I should have talked to her about it first and then worked with her to find a solution to the problem. Living in a room with limited space, we should learn to get on well with one another.

　　Dear James,

　　In todays newspaper, I read about the recent events in your town and I am writing to extend my deepest condolences.

　　It broke my heart to see all those pictures of those whose homes have been destroyed in the tragic hurricane. I couldnt believe my eyes when I saw a little girl crying on the roof of her house asking for help. I am really worried about you and your family, and all your friends there. I am crossing my fingers for you now in hopes that you are all safe and sound.

　　I can only imagine how difficult this time must be for you, and I want to extend to you my unwavering support. Our government and many nongovernmental organizations are initiating various campaigns to urge people to donate money and necessary things to send to America. I donated all my allowance that I have been saving for years.

　　I feel extremely sorry for this tragedy, and I will be looking forward to hearing from you. Please pass my concern on to your parents.

　　Yours sincerely,

　　Meng Fei
