It is perfectly possible to organize the life of our colleges in such a way that students and teachers alike will take part in it; in such a way that a perfectly natural daily intercourse will be established between them and it is only by such an organization that they can be given real vitality as places of serious training, be made communities in which youngsters will come fully to realize how interesting intellectual work is, how vital, how important, how closely associated with all modern achievement — only by such an organization that study can be made to seem part of life itself.

To celebrate the popularity of football, or soccer as it is called in the United States, and to coincide with the World Cup, the National Geographic Museum in Washington D.C. organized an exhibit of pictures of people of all ages and cultures, playing soccer. This report is narrated by Carolyn Weaver.
There are images we have all seen around the world. What makes the particular 52 pictures different is that they were taken by some of the best photographers in the world, says Susan Norton, director of the National Geographic Museum.
“We know that on the news every night and on the sports channels you will be seeing professional soccer. But because soccer is everywhere, we wanted to show people playing soccer everywhere, normal people like you and me, even animals in the exhibition playing soccer,” she told us.

It was at about 9:00 on Sunday morning, when I went out of the campus to go to a supermarket for a shopping. I was walking leisurely on the sidewalk of Xueyuang Road when I heard a loud crash just at the cross about 10 meters away. Two cars crashed together.It was a serious traffic accident.
Lots of people rushed to the spot to see what had happened, me included. I found two cars were badly damaged with a door knocked off. One driver was blooding on his forehead and another was shut in the taxi. Some people were trying to help the driver get out of the damaged car; others were calling 110 and 120 for help.At that time a lot of cars were jammed on the road.

In all one’s lifetime it is oneself that one spends the most time being with or dealing with. But it is precisely oneself that one has the least understanding of. When you are going upwards in life you tend to overestimate yourself. When you are going downhill you tend to underestimate yourself. It’s likely that you think it wise for yourself to know your place and stay aloof from worldly wearing a mask of cowardice, behind which the flow of sap in your life will be retarded.

I received a call from the nursing home. Grandpa was failing rapidly. I should come. There was nothing to do but hold his hand. “I love you, Grandpa. Thank you for always being there for me.” Memories…memories…six days a week, Grandpa in that old blue shirt caring for those cattle…on hot summer days plowing the soil, planting the corn and beans and harvesting them in the fall…always working from dawn to dusk. Survival demanded work, work, work.

It is necessary for college students to know the world outside the campus. This is because in this “Information Age” the society is developing so fast that we should keep pace with the progress of the outside world. Therefore, without knowledge of the outside world, it will be difficult for us to ensure an ideal job after graduation; it will be more difficult for us to succeed in the fierce competition.
How to know the outside world? First of all, we should be well-informed about what is happening around us with the help of mass media:radios, televisions, newspapers, the Internet, and so on. Moreover,we should do some practical social services so as to cultivate our social skills, widen our horizon and enrich our social experience.
As for me, I plan to know the outside world in two ways. I am going to do a part-time job in this summer vocation. In addition, I hold the idea that getting knowledge from books is a better method to know the outside world.

Should college students live on or out of the campus? There are mainly two different opinions. Most people hold that college students should live on campus where they can be well-disciplined and taken good care of. By contrast, others maintain that college students should be allowed to live alone off campus.
