尊敬的先生或女士:
    我是一名中国学生,希望向您这所著名大学申请入学。我计划下学期开始我的课程,如果您能好心提供一些基本信息,我将非常感谢。
    首先,我在您的大学听课需要什么条件?我已经从北京大学获得学士学位,但我想知道是否有进一步的学术要求。其次,学费是多少?尽管我打算自费,但我想了解一下是否国外学生可以获得奖学金。最后,住宿情况怎么样?
    我期待着您的答复,并且希望进入您这所著名大学。
                                                     您真诚的,

    首先,这个展览规模怎么样,主题是什么,陈列了哪些物品?其次,这个展览举行的日期是什么,每天开馆时间是几点?
    我需要指出的是我想带着很多学生去参观展览。所以我想询问一下是否关于学生的门票可以获得一些折扣。期待着您的回信。

尊敬的经理先生或女士:
    2005年8月10日我在贵饭店608房间住过。您是否可以检查一下失物招领处,看一下我的包是否还在?
    这个包是一个小的黑皮文件夹。在里面,您可以看到几张名片和一张林黛玉小姐的照片。这些东西不值什么钱,但很有个人价值。
    如果您能尽快和我联系,我将非常感谢。如果您能用特快邮件专递把包寄给我,那就太感谢了。多谢您的帮助。

    我也想了解付款方式和售后服务。如果您出售这些书,我希望邮购订货。请告诉我是否可以现金付款或使用信用卡。

尊敬的先生或女士:
    我写信是为了表达关于住宿的不满。由于我发现目前的分居状况很不方便,我想下学期搬到一个单间。
    我需要解释的是,我不满的原因是我室友不体谅的行为。首先,他的朋友经常来访。其次,他经常举办一些吵闹的聚会。
    为了解决这个问题,我希望引起有关当局的注意。我确信您也会同意,唯一的解决措施是搬到一个我自己的房间。因此,如果您可以给我找一个最好不在同楼但离校园越近越好的单间,我将非常感谢。
                                                       您真诚的,
                                                       李明

尊敬的拜伦先生:

    不但我的资历和工作经历使我成为这个工作的一个完美人选,我的性格也非常适合做一位女服务员。我是一个友好的人,可以迅速和各年龄段的人建立良好关系。
    我想尽快见到您,讨论一下在您饭店工作的可能性。感谢您考虑我的申请。期待着在不远的将来见到您。
                                                       您真诚的,

7、
尊敬的王先生:
    我写信是为了告诉您我从目前职位上辞职的决定。
    主要原因如下。首先,两个月后,我确实感到很难适应加班和夜班。其次,工资比您原来承诺的低很多,而我有一个大家庭要供养。最后,我在大学中所学无法适应做一位编辑的要求。
    对于我所造成的任何不便深表道歉。我真诚希望您能同意我的辞呈。
                                                       您真诚的,

尊敬的先生或女士:
    我写信是为了推荐我最好的一个朋友周伯通申请这个职位。由于他拥有杰出的领导能力和令人愉快的个性,他多次当选为复旦大学学生会主席。
    尽管他很忙,但他完成了自己的专业——青少年心理学,并拥有杰出的学校成绩。毕业之后,他被分配到复旦中学做一名教师。此外,他热爱自己的职业并喜欢和孩子们工作。这使他在学生中很受欢迎。
    因此,我毫不犹豫推荐他作为您招聘职位的一名理想候选人。我确信您将做出雇用他的明智选择。
                                                       您真诚的,

亲爱的奥黛丽:
    你好!我叫李明。很高兴有这个机会写信给你成为笔友。
    首先做一个自我介绍。我现在在一家大的跨国公司做计算机程序员2005年我毕业于清华大学,获得计算机科学的学士学位。我喜欢听流行音乐和旅游。
    今年夏天,我将和郭靖先生一起去挪威。如果你有时间,我非常高兴当面见你。好吧,就此止笔。期待着你的回信。希望我们成为好朋友。
                                                       您真诚的,

10、
亲爱的小强:
    我写信是为了表达我衷心的感谢。我指的是那天我被一辆出租车从自行车上撞下来的不幸事件。
   如果没有您给予我的第一手的及时帮助的话,恐怕后果会更严重。大家都认为正是您在那个紧急事件中的快速反应才导致了满意的后果。
    尽管现在越来越多的人谈论到大公无私的必要性,但是我们看到很少有人言行一致。如果有更多人象您的话,世界会更加美好。
                                                       您真诚的,
                                                       李明

亲爱的旺财:
    你问我关于是否该学历史还是计算机的看法,我将尽力给你一些有用的建议。
    首先,你必须牢记的是,你的大学训练是为将来职业的一种准备。毫无疑问,计算机领域将比历史提供更广泛的工作机会。此外,就可以预见的将来,不但每个人都有必要计算机扫盲,仅仅为了谋生也需要具备计算机技能。
    当然,我建议你在业余时间可以继续读历史。
                                                      您真诚的,
                                                      李明

致有关人士:
    作为一名可以自力更生的学生,我写信请求您帮我找一位希望工程的受助人。
    如果考虑到这个孩子的两个方面,我想知道对您是否方便。首先,由于我打算帮助一名来自我家乡的孩子,所以这个孩子应该来自四川省。其次,他最好是一名由于非常贫困而退学的小学生。
    我计划每年资助我的受助人,直到他大学毕业。这笔钱将包括他在校的学费和其他费用。此外,我将经常和他联系以便他在需要时可以寻求建议。非常感谢您对于我询问的迅速关注。
                                                        您真诚的,
                                                        李明

亲爱的欧内斯特:
    我非常期待着你来到我们市。想象一下:在这么多年互相通信之后,我们终于有机会见面了!然而,我遗憾的告诉你:我无法在你到达时,如期在机场见你了。
   原因是你的航班一大早到,而我能到机场的最早时间是大约你抵达一小时后。请在到达厅等我。
    顺便说一句,由于我们从未见面,我需要告诉你如何认我。我是中等身材,有一撇小胡子。期待着我们的初次见面。
                                                        您真诚的,

    请接受我最深切的吊慰。令尊是一位受人尊敬的人士和慈祥可亲的父亲。每个了解他的人都因他的去世而惋惜。我知道您现在的心境,但您必须善自珍重,妥善料理家事,望勿过于悲伤。
    请接受我最深切和至诚的悼意。

事由:关于300台个人电脑的索赔
   
我方订购的300台个人电脑已经收到。但令人遗憾的是,所有箱子,一个也不例外,都严重受损。
    根据北京市商检局的全面检查,所述的300台个人电脑在此地卸货之前就已被严重震动损坏。
    由于这批货物对我们已毫无用处,我们不得不向你方提出索赔,赔偿我们发票值加检验费共计32万美元。一旦索赔解决,我们立即将所说货物退还你方。
    随函附上由北京市商检局签发的(05)108号检验报告。期待着很快收到解决问题的回复。

主题:员工计算机培训
    正如我们本周初期讨论的那样,我同意你的看法:我们公司正面临员工高比率电脑盲的问题。我们需要制定一个计划在这个新的领域培训员工。
    我想让你制定我们自己的内部计算机培训计划。我们最好把员工分类,让他们轮流参加这个项目。
    写一个简要的计划,涵盖你认为这个项目需要包括的内容。假定培训为十周,每周四小时。同时假定员工在计算机方面没有任何预先的知识或正式课程。

    随着心理语言学研究理论的发展,人们更加重视学习者的性格特点。这项研究的主要目的是发现是否在语言学习和所用方法方面存在任何联系。
    这个研究的对象是电机工程课的24名学生。我们主要通过问卷调查的形式完成了数据收集工作。
    在数据分析之后,我们发现交流的目的极大的驱动了这些学习者。据此得出结论:根据研究,被学习者用来最有效实现他们特殊目标的方法,最有可能是他们最喜欢的方法。

    儒勒•凡尔纳(1828-1905),《八十天环游地球》的作者,出生于法国南特。他致力于文学事业,并写了很多科幻小说,使他赢得“现代科幻小说之父”的美名。
    这是一本科幻小说,讲述了一位英国绅士的一个激动人心的故事。菲利•弗格先生跟他的俱乐部伙伴打了个赌,并设法在八十天之内环游了地球。书中生动描述了他的旅途中发生的许多困难和故事。
    从这本书中,我们可以看出作者对于海洋、旅行和冒险的热爱。这些在作者一生中影响深远。作者丰富的想象力和科学地理知识也使我们惊讶并折服。

Jules Verne (1828-1905), the author of Around the World in Eighty Days, was born in Nantes, France. He devoted himself to literature and wrote several scientific romances, which gained him the name——Father of Modern Science Fiction.

This is a book of science fiction which tells us an exciting story about an English gentleman, Mr. Phileas Fogg, who makes a bet with his clubmates and manages to travel around the world in eighty days. It gives us a vivid description of the many difficulties and incidents which happen on his journey.

From this story, we can see the author’s deep love for the sea, travel and adventure, which played a vital role in his life. We are also astonished and convinced by his fertile imagination and scientific and geographical knowledge. (130 words)

Directions: One of your pen pals will shortly be visiting your city. For some reason, you cannot manage to meet him at the airport on time. Write a letter asking him to wait for you at the airport, and tell him how to identify you.

Dear Earnest,

I am very much looking forward to your visit to my city. Just think: after all these years of writing to each other, we will finally have the chance to meet! However, I regret to inform you that I will not be able to meet you at the airport as soon as you arrive.

The reason is that your flight will arrive early in the morning, and the quickest I can get to the airport will be about an hour after your land. Please wait for me in the arrival lounge.

By the way, as we have never met I must tell you how to recognize me: I am of medium height and have a small mustache. Looking forward to our first meeting.

Yours sincerely,
Li Ming(123)

The occasion will start at seven o’clock in the evening, with the showing of their wedding ceremony. This will be followed by a dinner party. At around ten, we will hold a small musical soiree, at which a band will perform some works by Bach and Strauss.

Directions: Your fiend’s father died a few days ago. Write a letter of consolation to him/her.

Dear Mr. John,

I am exceedingly sorry to hear that your father passed away. The painful news reached us this morning, and we were so shocked that we could not at first realize the fact.

This sad news has put me in full sympathy with you. Your father was an honorable man and tender parent. Everybody who has known him must feel a great loss caused by his death. I quite understand how you feel now, but you are in duty bound to look to your own health and to take care of your family affairs. These would be impossible if you indulge your feeling in grief.

Please accept the deep and true sympathy which is all I can offer.

Yours sincerely,
Li Ming

Dear Sir or Madam,

We have recently received a rather large order for personal computers from a company in your city whose name and address are as follows: China Machinery Import and Export Co., 1, Zhongguancundajie Street, Haidian District, Beijing. They asked us to open a credit account.

As it is entirely a new customer to us, we shall highly appreciate you if you will give us any information regarding its financial standing and business capacity.

It is hardly necessary for us to assure you that whatever information you give us will be treated as strictly confidential. We assure you of our readiness to reciprocate at any time.

Yours sincerely,
Li Ming

Dear Sir or Madam,
  
Subject: A Claim on 300 Sets of Personal Computers

We have received the 300 sets of Personal Computers ordered by us. But we are so disappointed to find all the cases, without a single exception, have been badly damaged.

The Beijing Commodity Inspection Bureau presented the inspection report that the said cases of computers had been violently shocked and crashed before they were unloaded here.

Now that we totally do not need the consignment, we have no choice but to inform you to return us the invoice value and the inspection charges in the total amount of 320,000 US Dollars. As soon as the claim is settled, we will return the said consignment to you immediately.

Enclosed please find the survey report No (05) 108 issued by the Beijing Commodity Inspection Bureau. We look forward to hearing from your prompt answer.

Yours sincerely,
Li Ming

Directions: You are the president of a company. Write a memo to Percy Shelley, the vice-president on the employee’s training on computer, telling him the need to train the employees, detailed information, and ask him to write a plan.

Date:January 14, 2006
To:Percy Shelley, Vice President
From:Li Ming, President
Subject:Computer Training of the Staff

As we discussed earlier this week, I agree with you that our firm is faced up with problem of the high rate of computer illiteracy of the staff. We need to make up a plan for training our employees in the new field.

I would like you to design our own in-house computer-training program. We had better classify the employees and put them through the program in turn.

Write up a brief proposal, describing what you think the program should cover. Assume the class runs four hours a week for ten weeks. Also, assume people have no prior computer knowledge or any formal course work in computer science. (128)

1)
A third kind of thinking is stimulated when anyone questions our beliefs and opinions. We sometimes find ourselves changing our minds without any resistance or heavy emotion, but if we are told that we are wrong we resent the imputation and harden our hearts. We are incredibly heedless in the information of our beliefs, but find ourselves filled with an illicit passion for them when anyone proposes to rob us of their companionship. It is obvious not the ideas themselves that are dear to us, but our self-esteem, which is threatened. We are by nature stubbornly pledged to defend our own from attack, whether it be our person, our family, our property, or our opinion. We may surrender, but rarely confess ourselves vanquished. In the intellectual world at least, peace is without victory.

Few of us take the pains to study the origin of our cherished convictions; indeed, we have a natural repugnance to so doing. We like to continue to believe what we have been accustomed to accept as true, and the resentment aroused when doubt is cast upon any of our assumptions leads us to seek every manner of excuse for clinging to them. The result is that most of our so-called reasoning consists in finding arguments for going on believing as we already do.

A third kind of thinking occurs when we are told that our beliefs and opinions are wrong. We may have been heedless in their information, but our self-esteem will not permit us to change. We may have to give up, but we are not convinced. We do not study the origin of our beliefs; we believe as we have been accustomed to believe, and we seek arguments for continuing to believe as we already do. (75 words)

Directions: Two months ago, you got a job as an editor for the magazine Fashion & Design. But now you find that the work is not what you expected. You decide to quit. Write a letter to your boss Mr. Wang, telling him your decision, stating your reason(s), and making an apology.

Dear Mr. Wang,

I am writing to inform you about my decision to resign from my current position.

The primary reasons are as follows. First, after two months, I do feel that it is not easy for me to get used to the extra work and night shift. Second, the salary has proven to be much lower than you originally promised, and I have a large family to support. Last, what I have learned in the university cannot meet the requirement of being an editor.

I feel terribly sorry for the inconvenience I have caused. I sincerely hope that you approve of my resignation.

Yours sincerely,
Li Ming(101)

Directions: One of your friends wants to apply for a job involving working with foreign teenagers. Write a letter of recommendation for him/her.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to you to recommend one of my best friends, Zhou Botong, for this post. With his outstanding leadership and cheerful personality, he was elected chairperson of the Student Union of Fudan University several times.

Busy as he was, he completed his major, teenage psychology, with an outstanding school record. Upon graduation he was assigned to be a teacher in Fudan Middle School. What is more, he loves his job and enjoys working with children. This has won him great popularity among his students.

Therefore, I do not hesitate to recommend him as an ideal candidate for the post you advertised. I am sure you will make a wise decision in hiring him.
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming(114)

Directions: You are writing your first letter to a pen pal. Describe your previous studies and work experience, your current activities, hobbies and interests. Tell your pen pal that you will be visiting his/her country during the summer vacation and suggest meeting him/her.

Dear Audrey,

Hi! My name is Li Ming. I am very glad to have this chance to write to you and become pen pals.

Let me first introduce myself. I’m currently working as a computer programmer in a large multi-national company. I graduated from Tsinghua University with a Bachelor’s Degree in computer science in 2005. My hobbies include listening to pop music and traveling.

This summer, I will be traveling with Mr. Yang Guo to Norway. If you are free, I would be very happy to meet you in person. Well, let me finish here. I am already eagerly awaiting your reply. I hope that we can become good friends.

Yours sincerely,
Li Ming(109)

Directions: After being involved in an accident, you were looked after by another person. Write a special letter to express your thanks.

Dear Xiaoqiang,

I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude. I am referring to that unfortunate accident the other day, when I was knocked off my bike by a taxi.

If it had not been for your timely assistance in giving me first aid, I fear that the consequences might have been much serious. Everyone agrees that it was your quick-witted response in that emergency that has led to this satisfactory outcome.

Although nowadays people in mounting numbers talk about the need to be unselfish, we see very few people practice what they preach. If there were more people like you, this world would be a much nicer place.

Yours sincerely,
Li Ming(107)

Directions: You have a friend who is about to enter university, and he wants you to advise him on which subject to specialize in——history, in which he is very interested, or computer science, which offers better job prospects.

Dear Wangcai,

You have asked me for my advice concerning/regarding whether you should study history or computer science at university, and I will try to make some useful/practical/conducive suggestions/proposals/recommendations.

You must keep in mind that, above all, your university training is a preparation for your future career. There is no doubt that the field of computer science offers far wider job opportunities than history. Besides, for the foreseeable future, not only will it be necessary for everyone to be computer-literate, it will also be necessary to be equipped with computer skills merely to earn a living.

Of course, I would recommend that you keep up your reading of history in your spare time.

Yours sincerely,
Li Ming(111)

Directions:
  You want to contribute to Project Hope by offering financial aid to a child in a remote area,  write a letter to the department concerned, asking them to help find a candidate. You should specify what kind of child you want to help and how you will carry out your plan. Write your letter in no less than 100 words. Write it neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2.
Don\'t sign your own name at the end of the letter, use \"Li Ming\" instead. Don\'t write the address. (10 points)

To whom it may concern,

As a student who can support myself, I am writing to request if you can help me find a potential beneficiary of Project Hope.

I wonder whether it is convenient for you if two things regarding the child are taken into account. First, the child should come from Sichuan Province because I intend to help a child from my hometown. Second, it will be better if he or she is a primary school student who was forced to drop school because of abject poverty.

I would like to help the recipient of my assistance annually until he graduates from college. Firstly, the money will cover his tuition fee and other expenses at school. Besides, I will correspond with him frequently so that he can seek advice whenever he needs. Your prompt attention to my inquiry would be highly appreciated. (139)

I am a Chinese student who wish to apply for admission into your prestigious university. My plan is to start my course next term, and I would be grateful if you would be kind enough to provide me with certain essential information.

Write to the manager of the hotel and enquire whether the bag has been found. Give any relevant information about the bag and its contents.

I would appreciate it if you could contact me as soon as possible. If you could send the bag to me by EMS, I would be most grateful. Thank you for your help.

Yours sincerely

Directions: You live in a room in college which you share with another student. You find it very difficult to work there because your roommate always has friends visiting. He/She has parties in the room and sometimes borrows your things without asking you.
Write a letter to the Accommodation Officer at the college and ask for a new room next term. You would prefer a single room. Explain your reasons.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to express/air dissatisfaction/disappointment/concern regarding accommodation. I would prefer to move into a single room next semester, as I find the present sharing arrangement inconvenient.

I must explain that the reason for my dissatisfaction is my roommate’s inconsiderate behavior. For one thing, his friends are constantly visiting him; for another, he regularly holds noisy parties.

To solve this problem/surmount this difficulty/improve this situation/crack this hard nut, I hope to draw the attention of the authorities concerned. I am sure you will agree that the only solution is for me to move into a room of my own. Therefore, I would be grateful if you could find a single room for me, preferably not in the same building but as near to the college campus as possible.

Yours sincerely,
Li Ming(128)

如图所示,树木对水土保持起着至关重要的作用。左图中,人们被贪婪的沙丘追赶,因为他们砍伐了所有的树木。标题写着:“沙进我退”。右图中,人们拿着工具、水和树苗回来重新植树造林。我们被告知:“我进沙退”。
我认为,漫画家要告诉我们的是:树木对水土保持的重要性,以及每个人参与抵制沙化威胁的必要性。实际上,他要说的是如果我们不与沙漠做斗争,它会把我们从土地上赶走。如果我们让这种情况继续下去,环境将遭到巨大的破坏。
第二幅图清楚地说明了击退贪婪沙漠的方法。那里的人们正在热情高涨地着手植树造林、收回土地,使它变得肥沃。图中三个人每人干不同的工作,这说明合作努力是成功防止土壤侵蚀的关键之一。

上表中显示的数据表明,从1995年到1999年,西安人的日常支出发生了很大变化。食物支出下降了30%,服装和娱乐支出分别上升了9%和7%。上下波动的数据似乎独立存在,但是相互之间却紧密联系。
造成这些变化的因素有两个。这五年中的经济发展是一个不可或缺的原因。经济发展带来的收入增长,对食物支出的减少起到了很大的作用。因此,工资总额的一小部分足以支付食物的费用。另一个因素是生活方式的改变。当普通人不再担心食物时,人们开始把更多的兴趣集中到漂亮的外貌和快乐的休闲时间。这种转变的结果是服装和娱乐的支出逐年提高。
根据上面所做的分析,我们可以得出这样的结论:西安人的生活水平在1995年和1999年期间一直在改善。随着经济的进一步增长和生活方式的更多改变,表中显示的趋势将继续向好的方向发展。

如图所示,河南和浙江省上万的大学生进入两个招聘会寻找工作。找工作对很多大学毕业生来讲已经变成了非常头疼的问题。
为什么大学生发现越来越难找工作?这个现象的原因如下。首先,几年前各大学院和大学录取了这么多经济、金融等热门专业的学生,以至于毕业生的数量超过了市场需求。其次,大多数大学生宁愿呆在大城市没有合适的工作,也不愿去小城市和乡村。根据中国教育部最新调查,2005年全国有338万大学生毕业,而其中只有75%毕业后马上找到了工作。
我认为如果大学和学生都采取有效措施,这个难题可以解决。首先,大学应该调查市场来发展学生的特殊技能适应需求。其次,学生的就业观念应该转变。他们应该去小城市和乡镇,在那里他们可以充分发挥自己的专业的理论知识和实践技能。总而言之,如果我们更加重视,这种状况可以得到改进。

这些漫画生动描述了当前中国庆祝西方和中国节日的现状。在图一中,元宵节在擂台上被情人节打败了。文字说明显示:“情人节PK元宵节”。在图二中,一个开心的圣诞老人满载礼品,跑在两个迷茫的拿着鞭炮和灯笼的中国孩子前面。我们被告知:“春节危险”。
这些漫画的目的是告诉我们应该重视庆祝节日的问题。一方面,西方节日如此丰富多彩以至于尤其年轻人难以抵制过节的诱惑。设想一下情人节的浪漫气氛、愚人节的乐趣和圣诞节礼物和游戏带来的惊喜。另一方面,中国的节日也有其魅力。想想那春节期间全家团圆的温馨以及很多节日中民族情感的慰藉。
对我而言,一些时尚的西方节日无疑是要特别度过的。同时,我也无法在很多中国节日中缺席家庭聚会。我的节日祝贺是中西结合的。

近年来,人们与互联网之间的关系变得越来越不可分割。如图生动所示,无论是为了自我娱乐还是适应工作的需求,我们都很方便在网上冲浪时点击鼠标。事实上,网上浏览已在我们的每日生活中成为一种日常活动。然而,在这幅图中看来相当讽刺的是,使用一条锁链而不是普通的鼠标线连接鼠标。这幅夸张并使人印象深刻的图画微妙揭示了人与互联网之间关系的双重性。
在报纸上和人们的谈论中,关于这种双重性的讨论已经变得非常热门。一方面,不可否认互联网现在是我们日常生活中最有用的媒体之一。作为一名大学生,我每天上网了解新闻,通过注册网络课程来学习英语,同时借助电子邮件和我的网友们交流信息。但在另一方面,很多人承认他们太沉迷于网络而无法保持一种正常和健康的生活方式。因此,很多学生每天只是没有节制的网上聊天或打电子游戏,逃过很多重要课程。这么浪费时间无疑会导致他们考试失败。
因此,我们很有必要以一种合理的方式使用互联网,避免过度沉迷。毕竟,人们发明互联网是为了丰富我们的生活,连接我和你,并非用锁链束缚我们,而是为了提高我们的工作效率。

这幅漫画生动显示了当两个年轻人见到他们名叫“美女老佛爷”的网友时,令他们目瞪口呆的是,他们看到一位老奶奶坐在电脑前。这幅图的目的是告诉我们应该充分重视网络友谊的问题。
根据中国社科院最新调查,65%的人在信息高速公路上浏览是在求找社交。其结果是,网线另一端发出的声音可以用来掩盖一名用户性格的方方面面。而这可能造成不快甚至破坏性的后果。可以给出无数的例子,但下面这个就足以说明问题。我最好的一个朋友海伦,和一名网名“白马王子”的男子开始了一场网恋。而亲身接触证明了她深爱的偶像是一名有妇之夫。
在我看来,首先人们确实可以在网上获得社交,但这只存在于数字空间中。此外, 尽管网络友谊可以给用户带来友情甚至浪漫,它也经常以失败和灾难告终。我们早就该重视这个现象了。
24、
这幅漫画生动描述了一群年轻人手持斧头,正在跑去群殴。文字说明显示:“青少年犯罪低龄化”。
对这个问题的认真思考告诉了我这个问题出现的原因。首先,随着离婚率上升,有些孩子没有得到适当照顾,很容易被坏人带入歧途。其次,由于缺少教育和学校环境的熏陶,各种入学考试中落榜的青少年对于他们认为抛弃了他们的社会充满仇恨。最后,无知轻信的年轻人陷入电子游戏、网络聊天甚至色情的虚幻世界中不能自拔。这种偏离正确的社会价值观很容易导致犯罪。
在我看来,首先,整个社会应该高度重视青少年的健康成长。其次,成人和学校的正确引导和爱护对青少年至关重要。总而言之,如果我们竭尽全力,短期之内青少年犯罪率无疑会下降并得到有效控制。
