However, I try my best to understand them. Although they don't allow me to make my own decisions and give me too much pressure. I know that it is because they really love me and want me to have a bright future.

You can avoid getting tired and being trapped in the crowded people and cars and save time. When shopping on line, you can choose from more varieties of goods, whose prices are generally lower.
Every coin has two sides. Its disadvantages are obvious, too. On the one hand, it’s very easy for you to buy goods different from the pictures you see on the Internet. On the other hand, shopping on line may cause people to buy goods that are not badly needed. That’s a waste of money.

My friend told me that people who can’t help checking their phones all day are known as phubbers(低头族). Phubbing trends not only to involve the young people, but also the elderly. Soon, I noticed a Stop Phubbing campaign site had been launched. I found the slogan of the website as follows: "stop twittering, stop posting
photos…enjoy your food, enjoy the music and respect your campaign."

According to the passage, the author was addicted to playing mobile phone and it affected his normal life. However, Stop Phubbing campaign helped him realized the importance of the real life and he could use phone reasonably.
Nowadays, we can see many people are watching their mobile phones in subway, restaurants, elevators, roads and so on. There is no denying that people who like the mobile phone are concerned about its attractive functions. Phubbers can’t stop sending messages, surfing on the Internet, listening to music and even taking photos by using the mobile phone. Moreover, some people have less time to relax themselves. They make use of the time when they are on the way to school or other places to play mobile games.
However, phubbing disturbs not only our study but also our life. On the one hand, phubbers waste lots of time playing cell phone games and sending messages, particularly in class. Other people also complain they are disturbed when phones ring in classrooms. On the other hand, it can lead to health problems. For instance, using a mobile phone on the sofa can cause back and neck pain.
As far as I am concerned, it is high time that we threw away the phone and raised our heads up. Do cherish everything around us and appreciate the scenery ahead of us. What’s more, we should do more exercises and take part in real-life activities. In a word, only when we use the phone reasonably, can we realize the happiness of life.

I still remember I helped one of my classmates with his English when we were in the first term of Junior Eight. Li Hua, one of my classmates, was not good at English while I did well. One day, he asked me to help him. So from then on, whenever he had problems, he would ask me, and I was patient to explain them to him. Slowly, his English improved with my help. At the same time, I found my English improved too. Actually, helping others is helping ourselves.
【参考范文②】
In our daily life, everyone needs help.
Here let me tell you a story. One day, I saw a little girl was walking across the street. Suddenly an old man fell down while he was crossing a street. The little girl ran towards the old man at once, but she was so short that she couldn’t help him to stand. I helped her and we together brought the old man to safety. The old man thanked us over and over. The little girl and I were very happy because we helped the old man.
In my opinion, helping each other makes everyone happy and gets well with each other. So let’s help those who need help from now on.
