Second, people will lose the fun of bargaining.In my view, although shopping via media brings great convenience to us, we still should be careful when we “go shopping” through media. We should check the information released by the media. Only in this way can we fully enjoy the convenience brought by media shopping without the concern of being cheated.作文话题3： Directions: Write a composition entitled Fast Food.

Once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go(忙个不停 ) from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body. Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing as it is often supposed to be. Acertainamount of stress is vital to provide motivationand give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control can it lead to poor performance and ill health. The amount of stress a person canwithstand depends very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress, and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities.Others lose heart at the first signs of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress, in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact, we make a choice between flight or fight(逃跑或战斗) and in more primitive days the choices made the difference between life or death. The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme, but however little the stress, it involves the same response. It is when such a reaction lasts long, through continued exposure to stress, that health becomes endangered. Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart diseases have established links with stress. Since we cannotremovestress from our lives (it would be unwise to do so even if we could), we need to find ways to deal with it.作文话题10：On Competition (关于竞争）（作文范文10） On Competition Competition is a commonphenomenonin our social life.

What is more, by attempting to compete at different activities, we learn to win and lose, gain experience and know our strengths and weaknesses. Competition prepares us for the tough things in life. To go ahead, to acquirepossession, we should be competitive. Thusindustriousnessandambitionare positive values.Whether in games, in study or in business alike, the aim is to win the game, the degree, the trophy(战利品), and the contract. Learning to be competitive is clearly the best preparation for life.
