For instance, citizens‟

protection should be fostered from childhood. Bearing this thought in mind, we went to some elementary schools to publicize environmental protection knowledge.

To protect the precious forests, we could take our own tableware with us and reduce the dependence on single-use tableware; we‟d better use charging batteries which are not only economical but also environmental protective; when shopping, we can use cloth bags instead of plastic bags. What‟s more delightful, the pupils said they would like to share their feelings about these with their parents. Thus our activity got an impact of a greater scope.

century. This new type of education method quickly spreaded to Europe, America and the world,and became a great power of breaking through the traditional education.According to the research did by the OECD,the world organization of economic cooperation and development, from 1995 to 2004, the market size of the distance education worldwide is expanding at an annual rate of 45%. Since 2000, there are 20 million people around the world learn through the

education(Jiang

Minhong ,2009).

Like Sr.airman Aaron Fisher said” The ability to take my classes while on deployment ,and have my questions answered anywhere in the world,was a dream come ture.” (Nicholas Slabbert and Mirlea Saks ，2004)The convenient and the flexible are the most marked characteristics

of

the

learning. ”Online learning seems a boon for people whose circumstances make it hard to attend classes.”（ Nicholas Slabbert and Mirlea Saks ，2004）You can „attend a lecture‟ everywhere, anytime. You can study at home at 11:00 p.m., you can learn math when you sit under a tree in your backyard, and you can also watch the teaching video in a train. Distance education is more valued to individual

With the rapid development and parents would not let their children wide spread of information technology taking these web-based courses, because

“it dosen‟t require as much commitment and discipline as conventional classroom courses.”（ Nicholas Slabbert and Mirlea Saks，2004） I think it is the problem can only be solved by learners and teachers themselves.

Distance education is for everyone. Students can take lectures for their final exam.

promotion. For “the 83 million adults aged 25 to 54 who have no college degree” , the accredited online colleges and universities are really a boon. Distance education offers a wide range of online accredited degrees, including online MBA‟s, teaching certification, and Associate‟s Bechelor‟s and Mster‟s degrees in everything from a network management degree to onlinr criminal justice degree(Jiang Ninhong ,2009). What‟s more, online education has made a great contribution to promote the life-long education, recurrent education and further education. The recurrent education refers to a kind of alternating education system, it tries to give each person another chance to continue their study or make them have other opportunities to get training after study interruption. (Ding Jinhong ,2002).

There is a big proportion of househoulds that have no land or almost no land in rural areas of developing countries. The rural paimary schools are scattered with inadequate facilities and unqualified teachers.In many rural areas, only 10% of the children can complete the primary education. Accordance to the UNESCO's forecast, although the enrollment rate is growing in developing countries, due to the population growth, there will have 103 million children aged 6 to 11 can not enrolled, and 222 million young Youth out of school by 2000. （Li Jiying ，1999） distance education gives a way.\"If you put a professor's best performance of his life online, you can make something even better than Harvard,\" says Saylor, an M.I.T. graduate. （Jodie Morse，2000）

With the further improvement of

distance education, it will benefit more people. Everyone can become a digital dreamer In the near future.

Opportunities and Challenges First, I would like to know, what does your destiny offer you? Happiness, wisdom, a strong body or something else. If I had asked this question to president Nixon, he would probably had said,”Our destiny offers not the cup of despair, but the chalice of opportunity.”

Needless to say, one of the biggest opportunities given to China is the 2008 Olympic Games. Till now, we have used two sevenths of the preparation time. How much changes have you seen? New roads, new subway

lines,

equipments with beautiful colors, large blocks of grass fields, and also lots of modern gyms which are under construction.

Other than those, there are even more good effects brought to us by the Olympic Games that cannot be seen directly. For example, more and more people will get to know China. I‟m sure the mysterious Chinese culture will attract them strongly. And the games will also do good to the economy and environment, for it is gaining the attention of foreign investors and the awareness of environmental protection is being strengthened. What is more, Olympic Games give a unique opportunity to inspire and educate a new generation

First, by traveling we can enjoy the beautiful scenery in different places. We will see with our own eyes many places read of in books, and visit some famous cities and scenic spots.

Second, we will meet people with different interests and see strange and different things when we travel. We can get ideas of the conditions and customs of other people, taste different foods and local flavours if we like. In this way, we can understand how differently other people live.

Third, travel will not only help us to gain knowledge of geography and history and other knowledge, which will arouse our deep love :for our motherland, 1. Travel

Nowadays, with the development of should take immediate measures to tourism, the quality of the environment prevent the occurrence of offensive has been seriously declined. It pains us to phenomena

the decay of its lake, and HuangShan Mountain are spread all over by litters. We have to think twice about the effect tourism has exerted on the environment.

For one thing, tourism can have a positive effect on the environment. First of all, with the development of tourism, it can bring our country huge finance income. Secondly, we can find ecological problems in some areas so that we can take immediate measures to deal with it, such as ecological construction and pollution control. In this way, we beautify the environment.

For another, tourism can also cause passive effect. Excessive tourism would not only cause the air pollution, water pollution and solid waste, but also result in an inappropriate use of local resources. Not to mention the disturbance to the local living environment.

In conclusion, tourism can be beneficial to both nature conservation and economic development if it is developed in a moderate way. We must try our best to find the balance between tourism and the environment. 6. A Tour Without a Travel Agency Suffering

pressure brought by the quickening pace of modern life, we want to have some relaxation by traveling． But the tour with a travel agency may make us feel even worse and we really feel regretful．

The reasons why I don‟t choose a travel agency during the tour are as follows： Firstly， the guide sometimes seems really arrogant． He or she doesn‟t answer the questions we ask． Secondly， the accommodations are different from what we imagine． Moreover， the travel
