Essay:

Today, many schools are considering to preparing enough time for physical exercise to students. However, some people say that students should spend the whole school day on academic studies. In my opinion, I believe that physical exercise should be a required part of every school day because of three following reasons.

For the first reason, the health is very important to the studying. This is because the person who usually gets sick encounters many difficulties in studying. For example, he must absent many sessions at school when he suddenly catches a disease. Then he must try more to keep pace with other students. Moreover, he is not easy to focus on his studying without healthy spirit which is only possessed by a healthy person. So, doing physical exercise is a useful tool to the studying.

Furthermore, the health brings happiness to people. We can get a person who is talented but easily get ill as an example. He is good at all academic subjects but does he feel happy? I sure that he has not been comfortable when his family always spent a large amount of money to treat his and he always is painful with his own disease. Conversely, a student who is good enough in his school and has a good healthy almost does not any concern in his life.

Finally, physical exercise does not take much time as many people think it does. I have ever seen many persons, such as my friends and brother, complained that doing physical exercise took their time so much that they did not have enough time to do other things. But, in fact, we only need one hour to do daily morning exercise to have the good health. Instead of sleeping in interval between five and six o’clock, we should wake up and take an exercise in this time. In addition, we can regard physical exercise for five minutes as a relaxing thing when we feel tired.

In summary, physical exercise is important for student because it contributes an important part to the studying of students, to bring happiness to people and does not take much time. Hopefully, the importance of doing physical exercise will be emphasized in all of schools in near future.

Topic: What are some of the qualities of a good parent? Use specific details and examples to explain
your answer.

Essay:

Parents are a important part in our lives. The qualities of parents also influence the success in our life. There are supposed question which the qualities of a good parent are. In my opinion, a good parent should be persevering, diligent and wise.

First, a good parent should be persevering in educating their children. In childhood, most of us are very stubborn so that parents encounter a lot of difficulties to bring up us. If they try to direct us to good characteristics, we will become good, then. Conversely, we may catch some bad habits if our parents ignore us. For example, there is a parent that always buy everything that their child requests because the child always cry when the parent do not please him. Then the child will become more difficult to teach in future.

Second, a good parent should be diligent to bring happiness for their family. If their parent is not diligent enough, their child will always suffer the lack of materials. By contrast, if their parent works hardly, their child will have enough convenient things for his mature. For example, he will have enough nutrient food and learning tools for their health and education.

Finally, a good parent should be wise to bring good advices to their children. All of us have ever been confused in various issues. In each of these cases, we may need an advice from our parents to solve problem. In the past, I had been confused to choose one of the academic universities to take the entrance examination. My parent had helped me to find the university which is best suited to me.

In summary, good parents should be perseverant to create our good personalities. They are also diligent to create best conditions for our mature. Furthermore, they must be wise to give us best advices when we encounter difficulties. There are many other qualities the parents should have, but in my opinion the three above qualities are best.
