My Home Town

My home town is a beautiful place. It stands beside a wide river and is rich in fish and rice.

But in the old days it was a poor and backward little town. Many people had no work. They lived a hard life.

In 1949 my hometown was liberated. Since then great changes have taken place there. The streets have been widened. Factories, schools, hospitals, cinemas and theatres have sprung up one after another. The life of the people is greatly improved.

I love my hometown. All the more I love its people. They are working hard so as to make it still richer and more beautiful.

he values Americans live by may seem strange to you. As a result, you might find their actions confusing, even unbelievable. This is my opinion about American Value. Whether you agree with me or not - or is willing to accept as valid any generalizations about Americans - my observations are thought-provoking.

Americans do not believe in the power of fate, and they look at people who do as being backward, primitive, or na-iv-e. In the American context, to be “fatalistic” is to be superstitious, lazy, or unwilling to take initiative. Everyone should have control over whatever in the environment might potentially affect him or her. The problems of one's life are not seen as having resulted from bad luck as much as having come from one's lazineand unwilling to take responsibility in pursuing a better life.

In the American mind, change is seen as indisputably good, leading to development, improvement, progress. Many older, more traditional cultures consider change disruptive and destructive; they value stability, continuity, tradition, and ancient heritage - none of which are considered very important in the United States.

Time is of utmost importance to most Americans. It is something to be on, kept, filled, saved, used, spent, wasted, lost, gained, planned, given, even killed. Americans are more concerned with getting things accomplished on time than they are with developing interpersonal relations. Their lives seem controlled by the little machines they wear on their wrists, cutting their discussions off abruptly to make their next appointment on time. This philosophy has enabled Americans to be extremely productive, and productivity Is highly valued In their country.

Equality is so cherished in the U.S. that it is seen as having a religious basis. Americans believe that all people are created equal and that all should have an equal opportunity to succeed. This concept of equality is strange to seven-eighths of the world which views status and authority as desirable, even if they happen to be near the bottom of the social order. Since Americans like to treat foreigners “Just like anybody else”, newcomers to the U.S. should realize that no insult or personal indignity is intended if they are treated in a lethan-deferential manner by waiters in restaurants, clerks in stores and hotels, taxi drivers, and other service personnel.

No invention has received more praise and abuse than Internet .

There is no doubt that we can do the things that for us may be difficult or even impossible in the past with the help of Internet . We can communicate with the friends we have lost touch with for many years by the Internet

I enjoy go on line ,for I can do whatever I like ,such as talking with my friends,chatting with my teacher and also listenning some ver, what I like most is to read electrical magzine or watch some English films.I can also know the lastest news about the world instently. As I am a student ,I do not have much time surffing the Internet..

But I will go on line in the weekend if I have finished my homework parents agree with fact they always support me on everything I like I believe that people equate success in life with the ability of operating is generally accepted that no college or university can educate its students by the time they graduate,so may be computer skills will enchance our job opportunities or promotion..

However ,some believe that it is a terrible invention,because their kids are clinging to the net games and even crime as a result of the bad effect. What is more,some girls are cheated by people through Internet.

Some parents do not allow their kids to surf ,they think that it will have a negative effect on kids. I agree with the old saying “no work and no play make jack a dull boy”. So we have to face the internet fairly. Every thing has two sides,we should learn to use it correctly. First ,we should learn the common sense of re we do every thing,we should think will help us ,we should try to protect ourselves.I think we had better not chat with some most important thing is that we must not leave out our address and some information about us and our familly.

In all,we should know to master it in a right is also the reason why everyone can not be Bill Gates.
