     Our authority concerned must use the death penalty as a form of criminal punishment.  Although some people insist that using the death penalty as a form of criminal punishment isn’t a good way to deter the crime for the judge could pronounce erroneous sentence, which may trigger their family feel sorrow, I think there are few possibilities for the judge to announce the wrong sentence as they would look into the crimes thoroughly.  Some may stand up for that human has the rights to survival, so it doesn’t justify using the death penalty to decrease the crimes.  However, the counterargument is that those who commit homicide don’t treasure their live and others’, so if not using the death penalty to diminish the crimes may cause more cases than ever before and there will be more victims killed by the murders.  Additionally, no one can argue against the fact that if the criminals are sentenced to life imprisonment, people are under no obligation to pay money for the criminals to have meals in prison.  Due to all of these reasons, one must conclude that our government should use the death penalty as a form of criminal punishment.

That students should wear uniform to school or not has been discussed for a few time.  Majority of people regard that students don’t wear uniform to school as liberty and a policy the authority concerned should implement, while what I think is that wearing uniform to school is more convenient than wearing leisure wears.  It’s because students don’t spend too much time chosing which clothes they should wear before going to school.  If students dress in leisure wear to school, it may take quite a little time to those who want to look more beautiful and handsome to decide the clothes, which contributes to them to go to school late.  Additionally, some continue to argue that students don’t have to wear uniform to school, but the condition now in every school backs up that students wear uniform to school looks more regular and can be identified.  If students get lost while going field trip; the police can help find them more easily.  Moreover, if students wearing uniforms were attacked by the gangs and passed out, passersby can call the school to help make contact with their parents by telling their student numbers.  Last but not the least, no one can argue against the fact that if students wear uniform to school, they can be safer.  That is, if a stranger or a thief runs into a school, securities, teachers and military instructors can catch him immediately before he hurts students, makes school into a chaos and commits crimes.  Taking into account all of these points, it should be clear that student should wear uniform to school.

     Both John Adams and Thomas Jefferson were important Americans.  They played significant parts in American Revolution.  Additionally, like Thomas Jefferson, John Adams was delegated to the Continental Congress.  When it comes to Declaration of Independence, John Adams was one of the signers, and so was Thomas Jefferson.  Moreover, not only did they study and practice law, but they were also presidents of United States.  On July fourth, 1826, John Adams died. Likewise, Thomas Jefferson passed away on the same day. There were many similarities between John Adams and Thomas Jefferson.

There are two people sent resumes to apply for a new English instructor in my school.  One is Debra Fines, and the other is Lynn Whitnall.  Debra has more education than Lynn.  The former studied philosophy at PhD Linguistics in University of Pennsylvania, MA English in University of Toronto and BA English in McGill University, whereas the latter only studied Spanish in International High School.  Besides, Debra experiences more employment than Lynn does.  Debra was a swimming teacher, a teaching assistant at Linguistics Department in University of Pennsylvania, and an instructor at Intensive English Program in University of Vermont; now she is a consultant and author.  Unlike Debra, Lynn was an English Instructor in Tokyo Girls High School, now she is a Spanish teacher in International High school.  Additionally, Debra has published English books, but Lynn hasn’t.  When it comes to their language ability, Debra can speak English and French.  On the other hand, Lynn is fluent in Spanish, French, and Japanese.  Compared to the two resumes, I would like to hire Debra Fines because she has more English experience than Lynn does, and I hope Debra Fines can do the job well.

My friend and I are looking for an apartment to share near campus, and I see two descriptions of apartments on the Internet.  One is Fairfax Apartments, and the other is CAMPUS APTS.  They are different in many ways as following:  For one thing, there are two large bedrooms in the Fairfax Apartments, whereas there is only one bedroom in the CAMPUS APTS.  Additionally, the former provide furnish, while the latter doesn’t.  As for pets, keeping pets is allowed in CAMPUS APTS.  In contrast, it’s not allowed in Fairfax Apartments.  When it comes to rent, it takes $1250 per month to rent Fairfax Apartment.  On the other hand, we only have to spend $900 on CAMPUS APTS.  After comparing with these two descriptions of apartments, my friend and I decided to rent CAMPUS APTS, since it is cheaper than the other one and we can keep a pet.

Julie and Judy are my good friends and they have some similarities in some ways.  As for appearance, Julie has long hair and so does Julie.  Moreover, Julie’s eye size is similar to Judy’s.  When it comes to personality, Julie is as quiet as Judy.  Additionally, Julie doesn’t like to do complicated things and so does Judy.  As to capabilities, two of them are good at drawing and writing.  Last but not the least, they are at the age of seventeen.  As what mentioned above, Julie and Judy are alike in many ways, if Julie doesn’t wear a pair of glasses and isn’t taller than Julie; it’s easy for me to make mistakes.

     I find a piece of interesting news on the newspaper, and it says, “A severe car accident happened on the Washington Street this morning, and the police found something interesting when they kept a record of the two careless drivers’ licenses.  Tow of the drivers are women; one is called Stephanie Brooks and the other is named Ann Friedman.  Both of their driver’s licenses are released from the Department of Motor Vehicles in Alabama State.  Besides, Stephanie Brooks’s brown eyes are the same color as Ann Friedman's.  Moreover, their hair colors are alike.  As to their height, not only is Stephanie Brooks 5 feet and 3 inches in height but Ann Friedman is also.  Finally, Stephanie Brooks was born on July thirty-first in 1981, and so was Ann Friedman.”  Little do I believe that one’s personal information may be the same as others, after I read the news.  Perhaps some day I could meet someone having something in common with me.

Giveing Reasons--My favorite movie--Revise

     My favorite movie is Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, a science fiction, which is about how the main characters Harry, Ron, and Hermione figure out the clues left by Albus Dumbledore to struggle with Lord Voldemort.  The movie is filled with magic, adventure, love and strong friendship between each other.  I am fond of this movie, for I learn a variety of precious things from it.  To begin with, it takes guts to accomplish every mission.  Since the three main characters are brave enough to defeat the demon, I hope I could be more courageous like them to fulfill significant tasks, face the difficulties, and challenge plenty of adventure to improve myself .  Additionally, mutual trust is the key to the success.  In the movie, the three charters trust each other in the war so that they can win.  As far as I'm concerned, if I believe that my teammates can defeat other team on the relay race, I will be more energetic and there will be more likely to win the race.  Last but not the least, it is of crucial important of doing the best to achieve the goals.  Harry figure out the clues and fight the Voldemort with all his effort.  As an old saying goes, “Where there is a will, there is a way.” implementing my goals with all my mind instead of giving in to obstacles, maybe someday all my goals will be carried out.  As what are mentioned above, not only do I learn many things from this movie but I get lots of pleasure from this movie as well.
