Americans are very direct people. When they want something they say “yes” and when they don’t they say “no”. If they want something different from what is given, they ask for it.
Here’s an example. I arrive at someone’s house and he gives me wine, I don’t want wine. Maybe I don’t like it or maybe I just don’t want it. I will say “No, thanks.” If everyone around me is drinking something, I would ask for something else, “No, thanks. But I’ll take a bit of tea if you have some.” If I really want wine, I just say, “Yes, thank you.” Unless they happen to know the Chinese customs, westerners will not ask you again and again after you have said you don’t want it.

People often said Thomas Edison was the greatest of his age. There are only a few men in all of his history who have changed the lives of other men as much as the inventor of the first useful electric light. But Edison could never be pleased only because someone said he was a genius(天才).“There is no such thing as genius,” Edison said. He thought what people called genius was mostly hard work.
But Edison was a dreamer as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. He tried to understand them, and then he tried to learn what he could usefully do with them.
Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people would do almost anything instead of thinking, especially if they don’t think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking could give men enjoyment and pleasure.
Edison could not understand why someone could not be interested in life. As he loved to think, he also loved to work. On the day he became 75 years old, someone asked him what idea he had about life. “Work”, he answered, “discovering the secrets of nature and using them to make men happier,” He said he had enough inventions in his mind to give him another 100 years of work.

参考范文（一）
We should watch TV
As we know, TV plays an important part in our daily life. In my opinion, watching TV is good for us.
Since it was invented, TV has been an important part of the modern life. It is also an important tool to spread culture and information. We can learn much knowledge from TV which we can’t get from books. What’s more, good TV programs can keep us wise and healthy. With TV, children can grow up happily.
Since TV is so important and useful, why shouldn’t we watch TV often?
参考范文（二）
We shouldn’t watch TV
It is known to all that TV is very important and useful to our daily life, Yet it doesn’t mean that we should spend much time on it. I think we shouldn’t watch TV often.
Watching TV may be enjoyable, however, it is also bad for our health, especially our eyes. It can cause many kinds of diseases. Also, spending too much time watching TV can influence our work and study. Furthermore, many TV programs are not suitable for children. They have a bad influence on children’s growth.
In a word, for all the reasons above, we’d better not watch TV.
