为了交流学习经验，提高学习效率，某初中英语学习报正在举办以“how to be a good learner”为题的征文比赛，请踊跃投稿。

【优秀范文】

How to be a good learner

To be a good learner, we should have good habits and ways of learning.

We need to get ready for our lessons before class and always listen carefully in class. After class, we must go over the lessons and finish our homework on time. It’s good to study in groups and help each other. We should do more reading in our free time. If we have any problems, we’d better ask others for help. As a student, working hard is important, but don’t forget to do sports and keep healthy.

I think all above is helpful to us to be a good learner.

Changes in people’s life

Great changes have taken place in people’s life in the last few years.

In the past people kept in touch with relatives or friends mainly by sending letters. They would listen to the radio for news and other information. Children used to go to school by bike. Big families had to share small rooms.

Now people can talk to others by telephone or on the internet at home. When they are free, they watch the news and other programs on TV. Some families are rich enough to send their children to school in their own cars. More and more people live in big and bright apartment with several rooms.

In a word, people live better than before.

计算机在我们的生活、工作中的作用越来越大，你知道计算机的起源与发展吗？请结合计算机的发明时间（1946年）、外形、用途等方面，谈一下它的发展变化，并说明你对未来计算机的畅想。

【优秀范文】

Computer

Computers are becoming more and more important in our daily life. Do you know when the computer was invented?

The computer was invented in 1946. At that time, it was huge. With the development of science and technology, the computer has grown smaller. Now there are many kinds of computers, such as personal computers and laptops. The computer is a very useful tool in our life. For example, it can send some messages to foreign friends by email. What’s more, it can share information with others through the World Wide Web. We can also listen to music or play the game on computers. It makes us relax.

It’s hard to imagine what our life would be like without computers. I think computers will be more convenient and they are going to change our life completely in the near future.

There are many rules in our school.

At our school we have to wear uniforms every day. The problem is that all my classmates think the uniforms are ugly. I think young people should look smart, so I’d like to wear my own clothes.

Although we have different views on the rules, I think everyone should obey the school rules.

As we all know, different countries have different customs. So the manners in China are very different from those in your country. Let me tell you something about customs and manners in our country.

First, we Chinese are supposed to shake hands when we meet for the first time. Then we greet each other. After that, you can talk about something relaxing. But you are not supposed to talk about someone’s salary, age and so on. Second, we use chopsticks to have meals while you use your forks at table. Also, it’s bad manners to talk too much when you’re having meals.

I hope you’ll have a wonderful time in our country.

I still remember the bad day I have experienced clearly.

It was a Friday. I woke up late because my clock didn't go off. I felt very nervous. I might be late for school. When I got to school，the teacher was having a class. I felt afraid. As a result，the teacher punished me. I was very sad. By the time we had English class，I found I had left my English book at home. So I had to borrow one.

After lunch，I fought with my classmate because of some small things.The teacher kicked me off the classroom and sent me home. I knew I let my parents down. I also felt I wasn't a good child. I didn't feel like eating dinner and went to bed.

That night I thought about these things carefully and decided to make a change. I believed I could be a good boy soon.
