1. You borrowed some books from your school or college library. Unfortunately you have to go away to visit a sick relative and cannot return the books in time.
Write a letter to the library. Explain what has happened and tell them what you want to do about it.
You should write at least 150 words.
You do NOT need to write your own address.
Begin your letter as follows: Dear _______
Dear sir/madam,
I am writing to you in regarding of some books borrowed from the college library on Tuesday this week. According to the conditions, I should return them in 2 weeks, that means it should be returned by Tuesday, July 14,2009. Unfortunately, I just got this notification today, it says that my grandfather is very sick, there is a great possibility that he can’t surrive this heartattack. I love him very much and I must see him this time or I’ll have no chance any more. Because of this reason, I’ll go back to home for about 3 weeks. That makes me can’t return the books in time.
I hope that you could help me to extend the time, so that I can keep it for an addition week. If it can’t be done, I’m willing to pay the penalty for the late return.
The books I borrowed are:
How to win friend and influence people, ISNXXXXX
Computer science, ISNXXXX
Yours faithful
Simon
2. Some governments say how many children a family can have in their country. They may control the number of children someone has through taxes.
It is sometimes necessary and right for a government to control the population in this way.
Do you agree or disagree?
Give reasons for your answer.
The planet is becoming over populated, it holds more than 5 billion people now, and the number is growing everyday. It is worried that if the population continues to grow is the current spend, we can’t find enough resources to support the economy. This problem is especially dominent in some countries such as China and India.
Some governments take the population problem as a serious one, and they are taking necessary action to control the birth rate. For example, Chinese government is exeuting a policy that says female should get married after 20, male can’t before 22,and each family could only have one child, or there will be a punioh fee applied. Some other countries also have similar policym in the hope of keep the population rate down.
There are various reasons to control the population. First of all, a person will consume tons of food, cloth, water, during his/her whole life. On the other reason, increase in the population will raise the burden on the education system, medical system and economy system. If the population enbarges too fast, it may become a disease for to the whole country.
While the birth control is executed for several decades some negative effects is drawing the public’s attention. They found that the whole country is aging. It means there are more old people than young ones, because of low birth rate and higher death age. In a aged society, old people can’t get enough care, factories and companies are becoming chort of labors. This makes the economy growth slowed down.
In my opion, it si definitely necessary for some ower populated countries to control the birth rate. But they should be very careful about this issue. A measure of the birth rate should be watched, so that the population won’t grow too fast while the economy can continue to run in a healthy condition. |
