Being Successful Through Self-study
Going to a top university has long been the dream of many students and their parents. However，in my opinion，going to college may not be the only way to success. All roads lead to Rome.
As Bill Gates once said，self-study is the best university. Many eminent figures achieve success through self-study. Gates himself serves as a good example，who dropped out from the university and，by self-study，accomplished his goal of setting up a software empire.
For me，self-study has several advantages. Firstly，self-study is flexible，which enables me to arrange my time and adjust my process according to my work and life. Secondly，as a process of learning without others' guidance，self-study helps me to cultivate my ability of self-management and independent thinking. Finally，self-study is a method to keep lear
ning. School life will come to an end anyway，and only self-study can keep us learning all the time and enable us to do as the saying goes，“it is never too old to learn".

A less is more英语作文150字Penny Saved Is a Penny Earned
As the saying goes，"A penny saved is a penny earned." Thrift is a virtue that our elder generation treasures and should be inherited by us.
As we all know，many historical figures lived a thrifty life. Yao，the ancient Chinese emperor，often wore linen clothes and ate coarse steamed rice. He devoted himself to his work and paid no attention to luxury or enjoyment. His thrift won him the love of people and made him a saint in Chinese history.
As to me，I believe there are several ways to live thriftily. First of all，I never spend money on things unnecessary for my life，which can help me to save money for any unexpected emergency in the future. Secondly，I never waste any thing I possess and always make the best use of everything.
Finally，I try to engage myself more in my work and study，so that I do not have too much
time and energy for material luxury and live a more simple but meaningful life.

Is It Necesary for Children to Do Housework？
Some parents think that it is necessary and important for students to do some housework.Housework is a kind of physical exercise necessary for mental development.Other parents，however，hold that it is study that is of extreme importance to children.Priority should first and foremost be given to study both at school and at home.Hence children should be exempt from any tedious and time-consuming housework.
I think students should share some housework with their parents. The reasons are as follows. First，doing some housework can enable the children to have some sense of responsibility. There is a lot of housework in each family. As a member of the family, each one should do his or her share. Since a child is a member of the family, undoubtedly, he is of no exception. In the second place, doing some housework can give children opportunities to get to know their parents better. By doing housework, children will know how hard it is for their parents to go to work everyday while raising a family. They will make
even greater efforts in their study later on. Finally, doing some housework can give children a chance to do some physical exercises. Since children have to sit and study most of the time, this is certainly beneficial to their health.
