15．假定你是李華，你班同學(xué)進(jìn)行了一場(chǎng)關(guān)于"公交車上是否該讓座？"主題的大討論．一些人認(rèn)為不應(yīng)該讓座；另一些人認(rèn)為這是一種好行為．請(qǐng)你用英語(yǔ)給某英語(yǔ)報(bào)社寫一篇100詞左右的短文，介紹討論情況，并談?wù)勛约旱淖龇ê涂捶ǎ?br />Dear editor，
Recently my classmates had a heated discussion about whether we should offer seats on bus or not．
Some students are against offering seats on bus．The reason they hold is that all passengers have equal rights to have their own seats，especially when they are tired．The old and disabled should own separate buses specially provided for them．On the other hand，the others are in favor of it．They think it is a good deed．
As for me，I always offer my seat to women who are pregnant or holding a baby．I also offer my seat to the senior citizens．Actually，I offer my seat to whoever really needs it．In my opinion，I think offering seats on bus，a small act though，is a symbol of kindness and the level of our civilization．
Yours sincerely，
Li Hua．

14．Teachers want to get along with students．（71）E  The clashes （沖突） can happen between any two people．
Show your teacher that you want to make the situation better．（72）F  By handling a problem like this，you learn something about how to get along with people who are different from you．
（73）G  Just like your parents have business relationships with the people they work with or the people who deliver the mail to your house，kids also can have these kinds of relationships．They are different from your family relationships and friendships，which are built on affection and love．In a business relationship，each of the two parties gets something out of the relationship，but does not necessarily need to be good friends or like each other a lot．（74）B
When you act this way，and remember that you're not the only kid in the class，you are helping your teacher．（75）C  Teachers also like it when students follow directions and when they learn and obey the rules of the classroom．For instance，there may be rules about listening when another student is talking，or about taking turns，or about raising your hand when you want to say something or ask a question．

A．So they will be happy when you do well in exams．
B．In other words，they need to"get down to business"．
C．Your teacher is likely to notice this and appreciate it．
D．However，they may develop friendship with each other．
E．But teachers and students sometimes have personality clashes．
F．Then he or she will probably do everything possible to make that happen．
G．Your relationship with a teacher is often your first chance to develop a"business relationship"．

8．與很多國(guó)家一樣，美國(guó)也比較缺乏淡水，尤其是在春夏季節(jié)．根據(jù)一項(xiàng)調(diào)查表明，美國(guó)的淡水使用分布情況如下面的圖表所示．請(qǐng)根據(jù)圖表，寫一篇調(diào)查報(bào)告．

注意：1．短文必須包括圖表的內(nèi)容；
2．詞數(shù)100左右．

From the graph，we can see that most of the fresh water in the US has been used to irrigate the fields，which accounts for 82 percent of all．While the rest，about 18 percent in all，is used in domestic daily life，industry，livestock，commerce，thermo power and mining，among which domestic use of fresh water has the biggest percentage，accounting for about 7 percent．The use of fresh water in livestock，industry and thermo power is equally 3 percent，taking the third place，and commercial and mining use of fresh water accounts for the least，only 1 per cent．
America has the most developed agriculture and so consumes the biggest share of freshwater．．
