　　Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Universities should give the same amount of money to their students sports activities as they give to their university libraries. U specific reasons and examples to support your opinion.

　　I disagree strongly with the idea that the same amount of money should go to university sports activities as to university libraries. Although playing sports is a wonderful way to learn about teamwork, strategy and reaching your goals, it should not be the principal focus of a university education.

　　Students need the most up-to-date library facilities available to get the best education. Many of tho facilities are very expensive to buy and maintain. The include computerized programs and access to internet rearch databas that students can u to find information all around the world. If a university is only offering its students resources of a decade ago, it’s depriving tho students of a tremendous amount of information.

　　Even the book and magazine budget of universities has gone up tremendously in last decade. More is being published on every subject, and every university wants to have this information available to its students.

　　It also costs money for universities to keep their libraries open. Students need to have access to all the libraries rearch tools as much of time as possible. Becau students are young and can stay up all night studying, many universities are starting to leave their libraries open all night during exam periods. This costs money, becau the staff has to be paid extra to be there. It also costs money to run the building (electricity, heat) during that time.

　　Students at universities are only going to benefit from their education if they can get to all the tools they need to learn. Sports are condary to the resources that students need from university libraries. For this reason, libraries should always be better funded than sport activities.

　　"When people succeed, it is becau of hard work, Luck has nothing to do with success." Do you agree or disagree with the quotation above? U specific and examples to explain your position.

　　When people succeed, it is becau of hard work, but luck has a lot to do with it,too. Success without some luck is almost impossible. The French emperor Napoleon said of one of his generals, “I know he’s good. But is he lucky?” Napoleon knew that all the hard work and talent in the world can’t make up for bad luck. However, hard work can invite good luck.

　　When it comes to success, luck can mean being in the right place to meet someone, or having the right skills to get a job done. It might mean turning down an offer and then having a better offer come along. Nothing can replace hard work, but working hard also means you’re preparing yourlf opportunity. Opportunity very often depends on luck.

　　How many of the great inventions and discoveries came about through a lucky mistake or a lucky chance? One of the biggest lucky mistakes in history is Columbus’ so-called discovery of America. He enriched his sponsors and changed history, but he was really looking for India. However, Columbus’ chance discovery wasn’t pure luck. It was backed up by years of studying and calculating. He worked hard to prove his theory that the world was round.

　　Success that comes from pure luck and no hard work can be a real problem. For example, consider a teenage girl who becomes a movie star.

　　Imagine she’s been picked from nowhere becau of her looks. She is going to feel very incure, becau she knows she didn’t do anything to earn her stardom. On the other hand, think about an actress who’s spend years learning and working at her craft. When she finally has good luck and becomes a success, she will handle stardom better, she knows she earns it.

　　People who work hard help make their own luck by being ready opportunity knocks. When it comes to success. I think that hard work and luck so hand in hand.

　　Some people believe that university students should be required to attend class. Others believe that going to class should be optional for students. Which point of view do you agree with? U specific reasons and details to explain your answer.

　　Some people may believe that going to class should be optional, but I disagree. I dont understand how university students can expect to learn anything if they dont attend class. Personal experience can help people learn about themlves and the world outside the classroom, but when it comes to learning about academic subjects, students need to be in class.

　　In class they receive the benefit of the teachers knowledge. The best teachers do more than just go over the material in than class textbook. They draw their students into discussion of the material. They prent opposing points of view. They schedule guest speakers to come, give the students additional information, or show documentary films on the subject.

　　Also, attending class on any subject teaches more than just facts. It teaches students how to learn, how to absorb information and then apply what theyve learned to other situations. Their teacher is the best one to help them with the skills. They cant learn them just by reading the textbook.

　　Going to class also teaches students how to work with the other members of the class. Many times students will be given group assignments. This is different from what they did in condary school. Here theyre with people from different backgrounds and experiences. In this situation, they learn how to handle working with people different from themlves to achieve a common goal.

　　Going to class also teaches students responsibility and discipline. Having to be at a particular place at a particular time prepares them for getting a job. Being at a place on time with an assignment completed prepares them for a career.

　　In short, by going to class students learn more than just information from the teacher. They also learn how to learn, how to work with others, and how to work responsibly. The are not optional skills in life, so attending class should not be optional in college.

　　Clear Your Mental Space

　　Think about the last time you felt a negative emotion-like stress, anger, or frustration. What was going through your mind as you were going through that negativity? Was your mind cluttered with thoughts? Or was it paralyzed, unable to think?

　　The next time you find yourlf in the middle of a very stressful time, or you feel angry or frustrated, stop. Yes, that’s right, stop. Whatever you’re doing, stop and sit for one minute. While you’re sitting there, completely immer yourlf in the negative emotion.

　　Allow that emotion to consume you. Allow yourlf one minute to truly feel that emotion. Don’t cheat yourlf here. Take the entire minute---but only one minute---to do nothing el but feel that emotion.

　　When the minute is over, ask yourlf, “Am I wiling to keep holding on to this negative emotion as I go through the rest of the day?”

　　Once you’ve allowed yourlf to be totally immerd in the emotion and really fell it, you will be surprid to find that the emotion clears rather quickly.

　　If you feel you need to hold on to the emotion for a little longer, that is OK. Allow yourlf another minute to feel the emotion.

　　When you feel you’ve had enough of the emotion, ask yourlf if you’re willing to carry that negativity with you for the rest of the day. If not, take a deep breath. As you exhale, relea all that negativity with your breath.

　　This exerci ems simple---almost too simple. But, it is very effective. By allowing that negative emotion the space to be truly felt, you are dealing with the emotion rather than stuffing it down and trying not to feel it. You are actually taking away the power of the emotion by giving it the space and attention it needs. When you immer yourlf in the emotion, and realize that it is only emotion, it los its control. You can clear your head and proceed with your task.

　　Try it. Next time you’re in the middle of a negative emotion, give yourlf the space to feel the emotion and e what happens. Keep a piece of paper with you that says the following:

　　Stop. Immer for one minute. Do I want to keep this negativity? Breath deep, exhale, relea. Move on!

　　This will remind you of the steps to the process. Remember; take the time you need to really immer yourlf in the emotion. Then, when you feel you’ve felt it enough, relea it---really let go of it. You will be surprid at how quickly you can move on from a negative situation and get to what you really want to do!

　　People have different views on what children should do at a very early age. Some think that children should begin their formal education and start to spend most of their time on studies. Others believe that it is still time for young children to play. Both views are bad on respective ground.

　　Tho who argue for the playing time for children suggest that children at a very early age are still too young to focus their attention on learning. Their brain may not be ready for rious studies such as comprehension and memorizing learning materials. The people are partially right, for it is true that young children can hardly concentrate. Their attention on one thing lasts for no longer than 15 minutes or so. But we can arrange class for shorter periods, can’t we? And we can shift teaching subjects. Through putting them tostudy, young children are occupied with learning but not with playing.

　　Tho who argue for children’s early commencement for formal education believe that being put to studies, children can develop good habit of studying, for the process of learning helps develop children’s mental abilities like the ability to memorize, the ability to understand and the ability to do simple calculation. Children’s habit of studying and love for learning are of great importance to youngsters becau the two things t up the sound foundation for their future studies.

　　Having children start formal education at a very early age benefits young children much more than simply letting them play most of their time. A good habit needs a long time to develop to become a cond nature. More importantly, it is better to develop a good habit before a bad one may grow. Similarly, the love for learning should take roots before the love for playing is established.
