【题一】
Nowadays in China, the income gap is getting wider and wider. In some privately owned firms, joint ventures, or foreign funded companies, an executive's yearly income is ten times or even a hundred times as much as an ordinary worker's.
Faced with this situation, people will undoubtedly have different opinions. Some believe that it benefits the social and economic development since driving force is often derived from the gap. In other words, the gap inspires people to advance. Others think that income gap is often the root of social unrest and also contrary to our socialism's principle.
From my point of view, while it is true that the income gap may stimulate the social development to some extent, it causes troubles as well. An income gap that is too wide can contribute to neither the country's stability nor its economic development. Therefore, as we are advocating the rapid development of our country, we should tolerate the moderate income gap but narrow the wide one.

Styles of Living
Some people enjoy living together with their parents after they have grown up. They think that by living with parents they can take better care of their parents and vice versa. Meanwhile, they can turn to their parents for help if they get into trouble or have some difficulties. To them, life in a big family seems to be more enjoyable than that in a small one.
Others, however, prefer living separately. They cherish the idea of being independent, and wish to have a place of their own. Besides, they don’t want to be overprotected by their parents, but long for the opportunities to face the society by themselves.
As for me, I like an independent life style. Different generations have different life styles and values. What one generation likes may not be another generation’s fondness. In order to avoid conflicts, the best way is to live separately. In addition, by living an independent life, I can develop my own ability to deal with the difficulties in my life. So I want to live by myself.
