One of the most difficult problems a young person faces is deciding what to do.Some people,however, from the time they are six years old“know”that they want to be doctors or teachers or firefighters.but most of us do not get around to making a decision about a job until someone or something forces us to face the problem.
Choosing a job takes time,and there are a lot of things you have to think about as you try to decide what you would like to do.You may find that you will have to take special courses for a particular kind of work,or you may find out that you will need to get enough knowledge for a particular job.
Fortunately,there are a lot of people you can turn to for advice and help in making your decision.At most schools,there are teachers to give you information about jobs.And you can talk over your ideas with family members and friends who are always ready to listen and to offer suggestions.

Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don’t agree with them.
Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources(资源), we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.
In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.
