It can be noticed that there are some unhealthy living habits among young people, especially college students. Typical examples include staying up late, being addicted to games, consuming in an inappropriate way. Thus, due attention should be paid to students daily habits.
Apparently, these bad habits may generate negative impacts. To begin with, they may impair students physical health and psychological fitness. In addition, what worries many teachers is that they may also exert negative influences on students academic performance. To conclude, never can we turn a blind eye to these phenomena.
In view of the seriousness of this issue, it is time that we took effective measure. Firstly, it is suggested that universities or colleges should cultivate students awareness of healthy living. Secondly, students themselves are well-advised to learn to regulate and control their own life appropriately. Only by doing so, can we hope to see the ideal scenes in which students enjoy their colorful and healthy life in Ivory Tower.

Soccer is the most popular sport in the world.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the game I would like to give a brief introduction. 2 teams of 11 players compete on a soccer field at once. They can only touch the ball with their feet, head and chest. If they use their hands, the ball is given to the other team. Only the goalie can use hands. The objective is for each team to score on the opposing teams goal.
In 2004, the president of the International Confederation of Association Football, or FIFA for short, confirmed that soccer originated from China during the Warring States Period in 476-221 B.C. However, even though they followed the no-hands rule it was still very different from the soccer we know and love today.
Soccer changed and developed over the next centuries as it traveled through different countries around the world.
Modern day soccer started in England about 200 years ago. In May 21 1904, FIFA was established in Paris. From 1930, a World Cup would be held every 4 years.
Soccer is already a sport that we need in our life. There are about 800 thousand teams that usually play in matches. There are about 40 million players that signed up. There are a 100 thousand professional players.
As I mentioned before, traditionally, soccer matches have consisted of 11 players; however, now other competitive options are available including, five on five, seven on seven, and even beach soccer.
Soccer is really a sport that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and ability. I have loved playing for more than half of my life and I know that if you start today you will too.

What will win, money or knowledge? I look upon this matter for a long time and came to a conclusion that knowledge is more important than money. Without proper financial planning, we might eventually face financial problem even though we are filthy rich. Another similar situation would be, without a good understanding in English we will not be able to write good post to entertain our readers, isn’t it? So for a long run I think it is bad. Well, that’s only my personal point of view.
Knowledge will forever be the best future ingredients of life as we know it.
If you got stuck in the middle of no-where (or maybe on another planet) with no transportation or no one around - will money get you home any better?
If you have to pick between a billion knowledgeable thoughts or a billion dollars - wouldn’t you rather spread your knowledge to others laiyuan jishuoshuo.com instead of thinking about becoming a billion dollars for yourself?
Money governs our system in which we live right now, but knowledge will defy yet prove the facts about endless dollars that are spent in our worldly developing lifetime.
I would much rather (in almost any lifetime) have all the knowledge in the world than all the money in the world! Not because I don’t need to be rich, but because spreading that knowledge would be infinitively more bliss-full pleasurable than passing around money to people everyday.

approaches to knowledge
there have been a lot of ways of acquiring knowledge. and the number is increasing unepectedly owing to the popularization of modern mass media.
however, reading books has always been the major and convenient approach to knowledge. one may acquire most of his knowledge through reading books, since they can be carried easily and read leisurely everywhere at any time. another equally important means of acquiring knowledge is through practice, especially learning from others. it is unlikely for a person to get all-round knowledge by merely reading books. as a matter of fact, genuine knowledge comes from practice.
although books and practice are indispensable to the enrichment of one’s knowledge, other means shouldn’t be turned aside. with the development of it industry, people tend to hunt for knowledge by means of internet. internet is changing people’s traditional approaches to knowledge. it has found its way into every field of the world.

Nowadays, it is popular in the world to see whether a country or a nation is prosperous and strong, and it depends on the level of peoples cultural knowledge of this country and its people. I think thats not unreasonable. Even if a country is not rich enough for the time being, as long as it has a wise people and a tradition of valuing knowledge, it can be asserted that this country has a future. If a country and a nation are rich now, and support a group of "uneducated" people, the result must be deplorable. It is bound to fade away.
The tang dynasty in history formed the prosperous scene of "kaiyuan flourishing age". In addition to the emperors enlightenment, the main reason was the full development of science and technology in all walks of life at that time. Domestic talents are abundant, and the state is powerful and powerful.
In ancient times, natural phenomena such as wind and rain and thunder were regarded as ACTS of god. When the drought came, the people killed the pigs and slaughtered the sheep. On the altar, kowtow to god, the priest to call the rain. To this day, it seems silly and ridiculous, but it is the inevitable result of lack of knowledge. Now we have the scientific knowledge, we have the method of artificial rainfall, even in the drought, the crops can grow very well. Oh, my god. We cant get our neck. Man can conquer nature, because people have knowledge.
Therefore, the prosperity and prosperity of the country cannot be separated from knowledge.

I have some good advice for your work. If you can do the following things, you will succeed in doing everything.
Firstly, whatever you do, you must be punctual and hard-working. If you sow a good seed, you will get a good harvest. If the seed is in poor quality, the harvest will also be very bad. And if you sow nothing, you will get nothing at all. Nothing.
Secondly, you must be honest. As honesty is the moral tuition that everyone should have. If you treat other people friendly and sincerely, others will also respect you.
Thirdly, you must be tolerant to others, since no one is perfect in the world. Everyone has his own faults, but if you can see everything on other persons perspective, there will be no problem at all.
Whats more, when you are in a big company, you should not only respect the leaders, but also get on well with the colleagues. Sometimes, you should try to please your boss, so that you could have more chances to be promoted.
Last but not the least, dont ignore the little things, because such a little thing will have a great effect on your life. So you should start yourselves at the bottom, in order to get enough working experience. As you have enough working experience, nothing you will be afraid.

Burning desire to succeed
The motivation to succeed comes from the burning desire to achieve a purpose. Napoleon Hill wrote, "Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve."
A young man asked Socrates the secret to success. Socrates told the young man to meet him near the river the next morning. They met. Socrates asked the young man to walk with him toward the river. When the water got up to their neck, Socrates took the young man by surprise and ducked(vt. 将……猛按入水) him into the water. The boy struggled to get out but Socrates was strong and kept him there until the boy started turning blue. Socrates pulled his head out of the water and the first thing the young man did was to gasp(vi.喘息) and take a deep breath of air. Socrates asked, "What did you want the most when you were there?" The boy replied, "Air." Socrates said, "That is the secret to success. When you want success as badly as you wanted the air, then you will get it.There is no other secret."
A burning desire is the starting point of all accomplishment. Just like a small fire cannot give much heat, a weak desire cannot produce great results.

When it comes to success, different people have different opinions about what makes it come true. Some people regard hard-working as an essential quality to success while others believe being clever would lead to success. From my point of view, I think perseverance and hard-working are indispensable for those who want to make an achievement.
Firstly, perseverance let people step closely towards success. Most people want to make a big difference to prove their value. People who set their goal and keep moving would make their dream come true. However, there are some people who set their goal but they stop at the difficulty would fail in the end. I think the difference between success and failure is perseverance. If we have perseverance, even if we are not clever, we will make a great difference, but if we not, we are doomed to lose. As we all know, Edison is a great inventor in the world. However, before he invented the bulb, he kept trying for tens of thousands of times to find a suitable wire. Let us imagine, if he gave up at the 999th, then how he couldn’t become so successful. So, I strongly believe that perseverance produces success.
Secondly, there is also a kind of people who are born with cleverness, I think they are lucky. Nevertheless, if they don’t make a hard work on their way to their goal, they, absolutely, will become loser. Whether we are gifted for intelligent, we must be hard-working so as to success. I regard hard-working as an efficient approach to be successful because I believe ‘pains and gains’. As for those who do not make great efforts on work, failure follows. In old times, there is a clever boy who can make excellent poem when he can talk. When his father found the little child’s cleverness, he just let the child make poems to show around while never let the boy learned anything. When the boy grew up, people forgot him because he lost the ability to compose poems and became ordinary as others. From this matter, we can see that only by hard-working can we get knowledge and make a good future.
Anyway, I think perseverance and hard-working are both important in our way to success for they enhance us and produce success.

In the Information Age, public awareness of the value of knowledge critically affects the economic growth of a nation. The schematic diagram clearly shows how the value of knowledge evolved in China in the past 50 years.
The schematic diagram mainly consists of three parts. From 1950 to 1966, the curve was roughly a straight line slightly above zero, showing that China was a poorly-educated nation then. In 1966, the curve drastically dropped below zero, moving down hopelessly in the next 11 years. This periodcoincided with the "Culture Revolution". Our society went mad then, books were burned,schools were closed and all kinds of academic activities were banned. Knowledge inflicted its masters nothing but disasters. Life was a nightmare for Chinese intellectuals, including famous scholars as well as common people who received higher education or whose profession had anything to do with knowledge. It was a time when ignorance was a virtue and knowledge was a crime. People tried desperately to be away from knowledge. As a result, China lagged farther behind the rapid progressing world. This was the darkest time in the history of New China. The curve returned to its original non-zero position around 1978 and moved up but slowly. From 1984 on, it has been shooting up. The open-up policy encourages people to study and to channel their knowledge to the market economy. Millions of Chinese are bettering off by means of their knowledge and more Chinese enjoy the fruits of knowledge and say goodbye for good to poverty that haunted them for generations.
As our world is rapidly advancing towards the Information Age, increasing number of people realize that knowledge is power and creativity is everything. Only when China becomes a better educated nation, can China be a great nation with international prestige.

We gain our knowledge about the world and our life from two sources: from experience and from books. These two resources are both important, but which of them is more important?
Knowledge from books forms a very important part of our knowledge structure. In schools and colleges, we learn knowledge which is fundamental to our future career. We learn knowledge from books in order to make our contributions to this society in the future. A student learns mathematic equations and other scientific knowledge and bee a scientist or engineer. We will be illiterate and ignorant without learning knowledge from books. Moreover, we acquire knowledge about life and the world by reading books, magazines and newspapers. This is also very important as we cannot experience everything all by ourselves. Therefore books are a very important source of knowledge.
On the other hand, we cant learn everything from a book. “Experience is the best teacher” is an old cliché, but I agree with it. The most important, and sometimes the hardest, lessons we learn in life e from our participation in situations. We learn how to get along with others or how to have self-respect from our experience, not from books. We cannot learn emotional feelings, such as love and care, through books; they e from our real life experience. Knowledge from experience is also a very important supplement to knowledge from books.
Needless to say both learning sources, books and experience, are very important to us. But in my opinion knowledge from experience is more important, because without knowledge from experience, it is impossible to get a real understanding of knowledge from books, and how to apply this knowledge to real world situations.
