In the picture above,in an unattended bookstore where there is no cashier and no staff,a customer is paying for the book he has chosen of his own free will.Such a bookstore is basically based on the customers'integrity.This illustration reveals the importance of integrity in todays society.cheif ieav-os onion,toona when no one is around There are many reasons why integrity is important Integrity means doing the right thing even when no one is around in our lives.First,living a life of integrity means that we never have to spend time or energy questioning ourselves.When we listen to our hearts and do the right thing,life becomes simple.Our actions are open to others,and we don't have to worry about hiding anything.What's more,when we have integrity,we gain the trust of others.We're dependable,and we become role models for others to follow when we hold ourselves accountable for our actions In our lives,we are going to be tested at one point or another by our integrity and ethics.Every time we do what we think is the right thing even though no one else sees us do it,we have taken a big step toward strengthening our integrity

The line graph shows audience rating at different time.From the graph,it can be seen clearly that the number of TV audiences is on the rise from 6 a.m.At noon the number of audiences accounts for about 20%of the total population.At 6 p.m.,audience balloons to the peak of the day,reaching approximately 59%,and then the number ofTV audiences drops dramatically.There are several reasons leading to the trend of the audience rating.In the first place,traditional Chinese families would like to get together after dinner,watching news report or other entertainment programmes,therefore 6 p.m.witnesses the highest point of the whole day.Second,the drop of audience rating after 6 p.m.is partly due to the prevalence of Internet.There is a trend that more people resort to virtual space and computer games for entertainment at night.Third,since working people and students are occupied by theirjob sand study at daytime,only retired people and housewives are potential audience.Therefore,audience rating is in accordance with people's pace oflife.Internet has impacted TV audience to some extent.

This bar chart shows mobilephone subscriptions in developing countries and developed countries,measured in billions,for the years 2000 to 2008.The mobilephone subscriptions in both developing countries and developed countries enjoyed increase in different speed over time.In this chart,the mobilephone subscription in developed countries maintained a continual and steady increase from 2000 to 2007 and remained constant in 2008.Meanwhile,the mobilephone subscription in developing countries have undergone a slow increase from 2000 to 2004 and then saw a great surge from 2005 to 2007.This trend increased to a peak about 4 billion in 2008.Based on different national situations,the reasons leading to this trend can be summarized into two points.First,the developed countries have a limited number of population,which decides that the demand for mobilephone service is also limited and will soon be saturated.Second,as for the developing countries,it has a large population and also a large demand for mobilephone service.And as the mobilephone becomes more available and more affordable,there is an increasing number of people buying their mobilephones.In my view,this trend that the number of mobilephone subscription continues to grow in developing countries will be constant for a while in the future.And this trend would also benefit most of the mobile users both in the developing countries and developed countries.

Chin8 s Automobile Market Grows Rapidly According to the table above,the auiomobile production sales in China amounted to over 8 million in 2007,with an average annual growth of more than 22qo from 2001 t0 2007.This means that after less tban one decade of development,China has emerged into the world's fastesl-growing major auto market.There are two main reasons for the increase.For one thing,since general market-onented reforms were introduced in China around 30 years ago.restrictions and controls on the automobile sector have been gradually eased,resulting in the joint venture partnerships with major global automobile manufacturers.For another,thanks to Lhe burgeoning economy,the disposable income of Chinese cithens has maintained an upward trend for years,contributing to an increasing number of people owning private vehicles.Despite the breakneck growth over the past decade,China's auto market still has much room Lo grow before reaching saturation and the prospects for China's auto market remain bright.

According to the chart above,people are checking their phones as soon as they wake up（51%）,on their way Lo work（51%）,at lunch（51%）,in the evening（65%,64%）,and even in bed（35%,40%）.This indicales that the majoriLy of Chinese people are using their smartphones mainly in the evening,when they are back trom work and want to relax.It mighl seem like a perfect opportunity to check your email,play a video game,see what your friends are up to on social media or check tomorrow's weather forecast in the evening.However,ac-cording to relevant studies.smartphones are almost perfectly designed to disrupt sleep,because they keep us mentally engaged late into the evening.causing us Lo sleep a lot later than we ideally should.What's more,people who are on their phones after 9 p.m.are notably more tired and less productive the next day compared with their unplugged counterparts.Therefore,it is recommended that we should place our smartphone on the other side of the room and then get into bed with a good book when we are getting ready to sleep.

Portrayed in the above pie chart is a survey of college students'purposes of traveling。The number of students who take traveling as a chance to see beautiful scenes accounts for 37%,while students who would like to travell relieve pressure fr om study.

As can be seen from this pie chart,students travelling to enjoy the beautiful scenery account for the biggest proportion and reach 37%.33%students take a trip for the purpose of relieving pressure.Only 9%students are to make friends and another 6%are to nurture their independence.And the remaining 15%students travel for other purposes.There are two factors responsible for this phenomenon.To begin with,with the improvement of our living standard,the once-deemed-expensive traveling has become affordable to students.（2）In addition,the increasingly heavy pressure from study and life has made it necessary for students to take a trip to relax themselves.As far as I am concerned,this phenomenon（4）is not the single case,and the structure of travelling purposes needs adjustment.Besides enjoying the landscape,students should make full use of their trips to associate with a wider range of friends and to foster their independence and interpersonal skills.Only in this way can they benefit more from their trips.

On Media Violence According to the picture above,a boy is imitating what he has seen on a television program,taking a knife on one hand,and a stick with another,saying"kill them all!"What this illustration tries to reveal is the devastating effects of electronic media violent program on young people Everything that children see or hear in the media early on in their lives affects them in nowadays,it's virtually impossible to keep kids in a violence-free bubble.Over sixty percent of television shows being shown in prime time contain some form of violence.Current research shows that violent media is associated with aggressive behavior.Children who view media violence are more likely to have more feelings of hostility and less remorse for consequences Violent situations are all too common in everyday entertainment and there are far fewer non-violent programming choices.Therefore,parents should monitor and be more attentive to their children.They need to pay more attention to their childrens lives and not let them sit in front of the television,whether it is for movies,video games,or general television shows

From the graph,we can clearly witness that the urban population was ascending while the rural population was declining during 1990 to 2010.The number of the urban citizens rose from 300 million in 1990 to about 460 million in 2000,and to about 685 million in 2010,while the rural peopledescended from about 820 million in 1990 to 800 million in 2000 and to 690million in 2010.It's apparent that in the past two decades,the urbanpopulation witnessed a steady growth,but in the latter decade,the rural population had a remarkable shrinkage.Personally,there are two main reasons for this phenomenon.On one hand,the economic boom led to the regular improvement of people sliving standard,and further resulted in a steady growing urban labor force.On the other hand,from 2000 the countryside urbanization oriented by the government gave rise to a conspicuously declining of rural labor force.In conclusion,based on the analysis above,the increase of urban quantity of citizen will be going on,while the rural population will continue to drop in the future,which is the need and trend of china's urbanization process.

The pie chart given above reflects the public's attitude towards food safety.According to the figures,44.7%of the people take neutral attitude towards food safety,ranking first.The percentage of consumers being a little worried about food safety ranks the third among all.making up t 5.8%.There is no denying that food safety is related to people's health and basic livelihood.However,many producers tend to adopt poor-quality raw materials to lower costs,resulting in poor-quality products prevailing in our society,which not only poses threats to people's health,bul also wreaks havoc（破坏）on the economic development and social stability.Particularly,when the authorities concerned fail to give direct control and supervision,these profit-driven companies are unlikely to shoulder social responsibility.To conclude,such a trend will probably develop more dramatically in the future.Therefore,it is advised that administrators and the authorities should keep taking measures to reverse such trend,and it is only by consistent and persistent efforts that they can ultimately eliminate the misdeeds.

The above pie chart illuminates the shortcomings of fresh graduates as perceived by employers.As is clemonstrated in the diagram,up 10 32%of employers lament gracluates'lack of ability to solve practical professional problems,next comes the concern over graduates'unreacliness to work,accounting for 26%.In an increasingly competitive job market,a good degree could no longer guarantee a decent job.Today's employers are putting increasing emphasis on candidates'problem-solving skills and the correct mindset to get a job which are unforiunately found missing from most young graduates.College students usually dedicate time and effort to theoretical knowledge while seldom engage in work-related learning activities.Moreover,few students have iclentified their career paths by the time they leave university.They prioritize salary over everything else and hold unrealisitic expectations.To assure smooth integration into professional life,and hence into society,students need to equip themselves with a battery of professional practical skills and develop a career plan aligned with their abilities and interests instead of continuing to moan about the lack of employment opportunities.

This table ilustrates the difference of degree of satisfaction among employees at different ages in some company.In general,the overall trend of the degree of satisfaction is different with the variation of ages.Of those who feel satisfactory about their jobs,those beyond 50 years old take up the majority,accounting for 40%,followed by those who are no more than 40 years old,which take up 16.7%.Those between 41 to 50 years old have the lowest satisfactory rate,merely0.0%.Of those who feel dissatisfactory about their jobs,those between 41 to 50 years old take up the majority,accounting for 64.0%,followed by those less than 40 years old,which take up 33.3%.Those who beyond 50years old enjoy the lowest dissatisfactory rate,taking up only 10%.Besides,there are still 50.0%of less than 40 years old employees,36.0%of those between 41 to 50 years old and 50.0%of over 50 years old employees remaining uncertain about the degree of satisfaction.The contributory factors to this result can mainly divide into three parts.Firstly,those less than 40 years old are ambitious,impractical and eager to find their places in work.With those characteristics,they often get upset find their places in work.With those characteristics,they often get upset when they fail to fulfill their goals.Secondly,those between 41 to 50 years old employees,confronted with challenges posed by their young colleagues,often face a great deal of working competition and pressure.Lastly,with their impending retirement,those beyond 50 years old face relatively small working pressure and feel satisfactory about their jobs.From this table,we can make a conclusion that if the companies want to raise the degree of satisfaction of its employees,it should make more efforts to improve the working environment,ameliorate the welfare and establish the effective incentive mechanism.

From the chart above.we can see the numbers of beds per thou.sand older people in elder-care institutions of some Chinese cities and the developed countries.Though the numbers for some cities,such as Guangzhou,Wuhan and Beijing,are higher than the average number for the whole country,which is 21.5,they are st川much lower than that of developed countries,which is 60.There are many factors contributing to the above-meniioned phenomenon,but in general,they may come down to two major ones.To begin with,the tradition of supporting the elders at home in China has hindered the development of nursing institutions.What's more,while the aging of the population is speeding up,the attention placed on the elders is insufficient.Considering the big gap between China and the developed countries,it is high time for us to take measures to close the gap.First,we.should change our idea that nursing institutions are only for those whose children don't respect them.In addition,more funds should be invested for the construction of elder-care institutions.Only in this way can we construct a society in which the elderly are looked after properly.

The bar chart shows the general trend of university students whotake parttime jobs at different stages during their college life.Seeing from the chart,more than half of the college students,about 66.77%take a parttime job at their first year.And the proportion increases slightly year by year,til the last year,the proportion reaches the maximal number,surging to 88.24%.There are basically three reasons behind this trend.To begin with,most students are eager to take a parttime job in the purpose of earning some money,which can ease their parents'burden.Besides,they can acquire more experience before officially entering the society.And with more experience,they can easily get a job compared to those who do not have any experience.Finally,they can not only turn what they have learnt into the application,but also learn more which they cannot obtain from their books.In my view,getting a parttime job is a good practice.However,the major task of students is still the study.They should make a balance between their academic life and their working life.
