题目：Do you agree or disagree with the following sentence:
there are so many source of information and news that we can not tell which one is true or who is telling the truth

With no doubt, as the development of information technology, more sources of information are available for people; however, what various news resources bring us are not clear or definite about the news, but are confusing. Also, this is what I am troubled: it is really hard for us to identify which news or information is the real one or who tell the truth.

In today's competitive world, hardly the phenomenon that mass media try every effort to exposure news no matter it is true or not would disappear. As newspaper or magazine companies, their primary job is to reported news, reflecting the truth. But when their competitors are upsurging, a threat always driven them to discover and uncover the most fresh but reliable news. Once failed, the most effective way lowers their standard. Gradually, the goal of media is the quantity not the quality, even without checking the reliability of the most news their reported. On the other hand, newspaper or magazine companies, paying attention to reveal the news as soon as possible, make the news even less trustworthy. Nowadays, people are surrounded by all kinds of information, some of which is inferior and somewhat artificial. So, it is not strange that most of people can not figure out that which piece of is telling the truth.

This phenomenon attributes to another serious and bothersome situation: some irresponsible people deliberately create some fake news to attract media in order to be well-known. It is not difficult to find examples in entertainment world. Say, to draw fans' attention on singers' new records, record company which aimed at more profit make the most of media to exposure singers: fabricate rumors or gossips or disseminate vague information. This strategy is universal. Most of us are accustomed to it, failed to identity its authenticity. This is uncontrollable.

The reality that media companies are thirsty for news and Entertainment Companies are eager for profit exists inevitably. And people are affected. But, if we concentrate on those shows less and attain information through more authoritative media, we may reduce the effects.

Through the analyses above, though sensible judgment can relieve the influence, we could reach the conclusion that barely can we tell which one is true or who is telling the truth from so many sources of information and news.

第十篇，最后一篇独立作文。
题目：In today's world, to speak well is more important than to write well. Agree or disagree.

The issue that whether speaking skill is more important than writing skill never fails to beget controversy. It is acceptable that different people hold different places due to their various backgrounds; and for the same reason, in my opinion, the importance of speaking or writing is distinctive to different people. I will use following reasons to illustrate my point of view.


The capacity to write well to writer is what air to human beings（这句话应该没错把，就像 water to fish is what the foundation to skycraper). Qualified writers are basically capable of using various sentence patterns, skilled language usage, coherent express etc. Without those skills, hardly a person would be acknowledged as a writer, that is to say, to some extent, writing skills are of great importance to writers; other skills, such as speaking and reading, have remote chance to reach (that importance 可以这样改吗？).

Also(In the contrast 我觉得还是这个好一点，有一些相反的意味), to some people, what is minimally required is to speak well. Politician is a typical example. It is worldwide known that before nominated as an America president, the candidates have to debate with their rivals a number of times. How can some of them magnetize  more constituents, how can they unambiguously and briefly elucidate the policies and measures which they would implement if they were to （make it）（删去，变为becom the American president), how to show their confidence and charisma, all of those are based on their eloquence; all of those was(are) mirrored by they(their) speaking. That is the reason why today's democratic candidate Obama has a large amount of polls. However, few people will pay attention to the writing levels of the candidates. It is to write well that is negligible to a politician（这个强调句错了？）.

As to students, situations changed(the situation changes 原句有歧义？). Not only have the students to learn both speaking and writing, but also compulsory for them to speak coherently and write effectively. The abilities to speak and write well are equally important for them, for the two skills are qualification to attend an excellent university, which appeals to many students. It is students’ undecided job inclination （ambiguous tendency to the job可以不？)that results in the equal value of speaking and writing.

Through the most common examples（illustrated above 也可以用小艾那个。为什么evidence好些？), we can clearly draw the conclusion that: to speak well or to write well, which is more important to a person depends on circumstances.

如果要用it is negligible  的话 应该是 it is negligible for sb to do sth.
谢谢你们了，很感谢！！！！！

我的第一篇综合作文。四天or五天。
The lecture discusses that a four-day workweek would have some bad effects,challenging what is mainly stated in the reading passage that working four-day a week is benefit for companies, the whole country, and employees.

First, the point, endorsed in the listening material, is that hiring more employees is a waste of resources and money and cut out company’s profits because the company has to provide more training and medical benefits for the new employees; also, more offices and more computers are required. In contrast, in the reading passage, it elicits a counterclaim that less workload could rest employees; thus they prone to make fewer errors while working. As a result, company can increase its profit.  

Second, the speaker makes a point that company would not be that merciful; what company expects is that the employees utilize four-day to finish the same workload of five days or urge them to work over time. Consequently, there would be no more jobs available. While the reading passage holds the opposite opinion that this policy would reduce unemployment rates due to more people hired.

Finally, the speaker raises the issue that if employees choose to work four-day a week, they would decrease the capacity to work; this situation would more easily make them lose their jobs. Also, the access to promotion would be lost because what the company likes is a five-day management. However, a counter-explanation induced from reading passage says that doing so, employees could lead to a high-quality lives—developing personal interests, enjoying more happy-family time etc.

Therefore, the contents in the reading passage are totally jeopardized by the speaker and the speaker has totally different ideas on the topics made in the reading.
修改了一下的。

Without those skills, hardly a person would be acknowledged as a writer, that is to say, to some extent, writing skills are of great importance to writers; other skills, such as speaking and reading, carry much less weight than that.

It is to write well that is negligible to a politician.这句改成Good writing to writer is like air to human beings.

第三段的ALSO改成 In the contrast.

all of those were mirrored by their speaking

It is to write well that is negligible to a politician.如果是强调句的话我觉得是It is negligible that ... 或者不用强调句 Writing well is a negligible ability to politician

As to students, situations changed。这句不明白意思

It is students’ undecided job inclination that results in the equal value of speaking and writing. job和inclination不能直接连在一起吧

最后一段的Through the most common examples 觉得examples指代不明，不知道哪些是the most common的
--小艾说用juding from all evidence offered, we could safely say
或者 obviously, all the evidence warrants just conclusion that，evidence 比 example 好

写作讨论群的结果。。。
