7、 copyright; copyright infringementSay No to Pirated ProductsPiracy is a serious problem with which this country is confronted. In many places we see 新东方在线 网络课堂电子教材系列 新六级写作补充材料2people peddling pirated books or disks. Actually, piracy has become so widespread that it has severely hindered the develop
8、ment of the nations economy.A number of factors account for the problem, but the following are the most critical ones. First, pirated products are much cheaper than copyrighted ones, so they are very attractive to people, especially youngsters, who are not financially well-off. Secondly, with highly
9、 developed technology, it is not difficult to manufacture pirated products. With one authorized copy, the illegal producers can make thousands of fake ones at a very low cost, thus making huge profits. As a result, intellectual property rights are severely infringed upon. Honest producers will lose
10、the motivation to develop new products. Meanwhile, pirated products are often of low quality, thus damaging the interest of buyers.

You should write at least 150 words following the outline given
27、below.1阅读经典书籍对人的成长至关重要2现在愿意阅读经典的人却越来越少，原因是3我们大学生应该怎么做The Importance of Reading ClassicsReading classics plays a vital role in a persons growth. By reading classic works, either Chinese or foreign, one can learn a great deal about history, geography, politics, wars and customs. Besides, as these clas
28、sics are the outstanding representatives human language, reading them can enormously improve our ability to read and write and to inherit cultural traditions. However, a diminishing number of people would like to read classics now. A variety of factors may have contributed to this phenomenon, but th
29、e following are the critical one. In the first place, as the pace of life and work quickens, people can find little time to indulge themselves in thick and serious works. They would rather read light and easy magazines or surf the Internet and do online reading. In the second place, most classics de
30、pict things far away from our real life, which makes reading them seem irrelevant. As college students, we should shoulder the burden of inheriting and developing cultural heritage. Therefore, it is essential that we should make plans to read classics regularly. Besides, we should try to influence p
31、eople around us into reading them. 7Keeping PetsThere is no denying the fact that keeping pets is a hotly debated topic today. Some people think keeping pets is a good thing to do. They believe that pets, like cats and dogs, can help relieve the loneliness suffered by senior citizens and other socia
32、l members who are confined to their homes for this reason or that. They also argue that keeping pets helps mankind understand animals world and develop positive feelings toward them.Others, however, hold the opposite view. They regard keeping pets as a useless but harmful thing to do. First, pets ca
33、n transmit diseases. Secondly, the noises and dung of pets are sources of pollution. Last but not least, as many rare birds and animals are kept as pets, they will surely be 新东方在线 网络课堂电子教材系列 新六级写作补充材料5hunted on a large scale, which means a threat to the balance of the ecosystem. Weighing the pros a
34、nd cons of these arguments, I am inclined to agree with the latter. Anyway, we can lessen our loneliness and express our love toward animals in other ways. And it is my belief that only by placing man and other species on an equal basis can we expect to have a lively and colorful world. 8. Where The
35、re Is a Will, There Is a WayA well-known proverb goes that “where there is a will, there is a way”, which means that one can find a way to success as long as he or she has a strong will. With a strong will, one can focus all his energy on one point, which makes his success possible. Without a strong
36、 will, however, one can be easily distracted from his goal or discouraged by setbacks, which leads to his ultimate failure. History abounds with examples of strong-willed figures winning success. Actually, there is no better illustration of the proverb than the deeds of Gou Jian, king of Yue in anci
37、ent China. Defeated by Fu Chai, king of Wu, Gou tried every means possible to steel his will. Eventually, with the help of Fan Li and Xi Shi, he managed to rebuild his country and his armies and had Fu Chai taste the bitterness of failure. In short, a strong will is essential if we want to make achi
38、evements in our studies or work, or indeed in any other aspect of our lives. One should lose no chance to strength his will and remember, God helps those who help themselves.9. More Students Pursue Master DegreesIt can be seen from the chart that there have been sharp increases in the number of stud
39、ents attending graduate entrance exams in a college in the past decades. As the chart shows, the year 1996 witnessed only 200 students taking part in the exams. In 2001, the number nearly doubled. In 2006, far more students prepared themselves for graduate studies. A number of factors could account
40、for the change in the chart, but the following are the most critical ones. First, thanks to the policy of reform and opening-up, the nations economy has been developing at a considerably high speed in the past decades. Therefore, the people have more extra money for education. Secondly, other releva
41、nt state policies and the boom of higher education provide students with more opportunities to pursue higher degrees. Last but not least, the increasingly fierce competition forces college students to further their study in order to gain more edge of competition. In a word, this chart is a perfect i
42、ndicator of Chinas fast expanding higher education. Although many problems have arisen in the process, we have every reason to believe that they can be solved in the near future with effective measures taken. 10. Studying Abroad: Hardships and RewardsThe recent years have seen a dramatic increase in
43、 the number of Chinese studying abroad. Obviously, studying abroad has its rewards. In the first place, a student can have access to advanced science and technology as well as desirable working conditions which might not be available at home. In the second place, he can be exposed to entirely new id
44、eas and trends. Last but not least, by living and studying in a foreign country, one can improve his foreign language much faster than at home.新东方在线 网络课堂电子教材系列 新六级写作补充材料6However, just as every coin has two sides, studying abroad may also confront one with a series of hardships. For one thing, learn
45、ing a foreign language is far from an easy thing at the beginning for most people. For another, a completely new environment with different customs and habits may also be a barrier to overseas students, especially to the young. An added difficulty lies with finance: it can cost a lot to study abroad
46、. From my point of view, the advantages of studying abroad outweigh its disadvantages. But it is a big decision to go abroad to study and one should take into consideration his financial conditions and his ability to adapt to new surrounding. Personally, I choose to go abroad and study if I find it
