28、YesNo）寫這種作文時.態(tài)度要明確、堅決，最好不采取所謂的中庸之道、因為如果我們既說這種觀對.又說它不對，閱卷老師可能會認為我們觀點鮮明。Example As more and more students are admitted into universities, campus discipline has become a hot topic. Some universities adopt a very strict approach, banning such behaviors as skipping classes, eating breakfast in classroom,

29、 leaping classroom in the middle of a class, along with some too intimate behaviors between student lovers. Some students pretest that these requirements are not suitable, for they are no longer high school students who need close supervision. What do you think of this problem?My opinion on Campus D

30、isciplines In recent years, universities in China tried to admit more students. While meeting public demand for higher education, these universities are usually troubled with various problem behaviors on the students part, such as skipping classes, eating breakfast in classroom, and even too intimat

31、e behavior between student lovers. To deal with these problems, many universities carried out mere strict disciplines. Though many students are against them, I believe these disciplines are necessary and helpful.My opinion on Campus Disciplines First, these disciplines are necessary to establish a p

34、ese disciplines are necessary to prepare students for their future career. Many students are not aware that there are very strict disciplines concerning ones behavior in the work place. If they do not cultivate proper mentality towards disciplines at university, they will not be used to disciplines

35、in the future; and this will be a potential threat to their success. I learned from a friend that a graduate from a key university was fired because he had not followed the companys discipline of not coming to office late, and lee admitted that he had been late for class frequently when he was at university, It can be seen from this example that if students do not cultivate a sense of discipline at school, they will have various failures in store for them.My opinion on Campus Disciplines Finally, strict campus disciplines are also necessary for the sound development of th
