1. Reduce Waste on Campus
Nowadays, waste is quite prevalent and serious on campus. Food is thrown away simply because it doesn’t taste good. Newspapers and magazines are discarded, because they have been read. What is worse, students seem to be quite accustomed to such waste and don’t have a feeling of guilt.
Waste can do much harm. Our country has the largest population in the world and suffers from a shortage of natural resources. It is crucial for us to make full use of what we have, or else, the resources will soon run out, and we will have nothing left for the next generations. Waste is certainly making matters worse.
Second, waste may contribute to a habit of extravagance, which is not good at all. We Chinese people have the good tradition of being economic, and are indingnant about waste of any kind.
Therefore, all of us should reduce waste. We can try to eat up a meal. We may give our old books to those who need them, instead of throwing them away. Also, we should form the notion that waste is quite shameful. As long as all of us take action, waste will surely be reduced.

2. It can be discerned that the American students prefer to read the popular novels rather than any other kind of books, such as the unpopular fictions, technical books, poems and so on. The percentage of the popular novel is about 68.2% currently. Comparatively, other kind of novels is about 16.8%, 8.3%, and 5.2%.
It is not difficult to understand why the popular novels can attract so many students. The popular novel is interesting, and not so abstract as books that are full of the mathematic formulaes. However, as university students, study is the primary task for us to do. So it’s advisable that we should pay more attention to the books in our major. Fictions may make our life rich and colorful, but it cannot become the major part of our life.
As far as I am concerned, I would like to spend my spare time on reading academic collection of dissertations, periodicals in my major, such as technology digests, computer newspapers and so forth, because I want to do a good job in my subjects. Fortunately, my dreams come true. Meanwhile, I have gained other things, i.e. I’ve laid a solid foundation in specialized field, which makes me feel easy to contrive the electronic circuits that have to be done during our bachelor years. Thanks to those books!

3. Changes on State-owned Houses and Private Houses of China
The chart well shows the changes on state-owned houses and private houses of China. In 1990, 75% houses in the country were state-owned, with only a quarter left for individuals. From then on, great changes took place. As shown by the chart, in 1995, the ratio between state-owned houses and private ones was 3:2, that is, the number of private houses has increased much, but still less than state-owned ones. While by the year of 2000, things dramatically changed, with only 20% houses were state-owned, only one quarter of private houses.
These changes are mainly based on two reasons. For one thing, with the pace of reform and opening-up furthering on, the traditional housing system did not accommodate to the new situations. Thus, state government abandoned it. Houses were no longer distributed according to people’s ages or official status. People were encouraged to buy their own houses. For another, owing to economic take-off of the nation, miraculous growth was accordingly brought about to people’s income. More and more people do have the capability to buy their own houses. In addition, there is still another factor, the government has taken great effort to build more houses in order to meet the need of individuals.
With the new housing system bringing into effect, the state government were released from the burden of providing housed for the people, so it is enabled to make staggering progress in economy development. On the other hand, as to individuals, everyone can buy and own his private house and thus improve his housing standard. This can definitely stimulate their working enthusiasm. Therefore, a mutually beneficial circulation has been created.

4. It Pays to Be Honest
From the mass media and also with our own eyes, we know much dishonest behaviour existed in our society. For example, businessmen sell fake products to cheat their customers; students copy other one’s homework or download illicit paper from
Internet to cheat their teachers; and even worse, there are medical person produce fake medicine harming the patients. Seeing our society is filled with so many dishonest phenomena, I can’t help asking myself what’s wrong with us ? 
When we were very young we were taught the importance of being honest. I am sure everyone must still remember that story “wolf is coming”. In the story the child kept cheating other people that wolf was coming, but when the wolf really came, nobody trusted his words and he finally suffered his own dishonesty. Also we have heard many stories that people benefit from their virtues of honesty. 
So since we have already known being honest benefit both ourselves and other people, why many of us are still dishonest? I hope everyone to bear in mind that being honest is the basic quality of human being and then we won’t be afraid of any “wolf”.

5. Student Use of Computers
Students tend to use computers more nowadays. Reading this chart, we can find that the average number of hours a student spends on the computer per week has increased sharply. In 1990, it was less than 2 hours; and in 1995, it increased to almost 4 hours, and in 2000, the number soared to 20 hours.
Obviously computers are becoming more and more popular. There are several reasons for this. First, computers facilitate us in more aspects of life. Also, the fast development of the Internet enlarges our demands for using computers, we can easily contact with friends in remote places through the Internet. Besides, the prices of computers are getting lower and lower, which enables more students to purchase them.
However, there still exist some problem, such as, poor quality, out-of-date designs and so on. And how to balance the time between using computers and studying is also a serious problem.
Anyhow, we will benefit a lot from computers as long as we use them properly.

Dear President，
As one of your university students, I am not very satisfied with our canteen service.The first reason is that there are many students coming from all kinds of places. They may be not accustomed to the local food at the beginning of the term. So our canteen should provide much more kinds of food for them to choose.
Secondly, the price of the food is higher than we can afford. I hope the price of some food can be decreased a little. Then we can have a larger choice.
In addition to above suggestions, I want to reflect that many students will have lunch after classes. At that time, the canteen will become too crowded. So we hope that you can arrange some more seats for students.
These are my suggestions of our canteen service. I really hope you can take some measures to make the canteen service better and better. Thank you very much!

Yours sincerely,
Li Ming
