2 如因课程难度高，则可以参加课后补习班

Response:

Well, heshould not do that and there're possible solutions to every possibility hedropped out of school. Firstly, he may lack money for tuition. For this, hecould make a loan or take a part time job. Secondly, he may fail exams andcannot catch up with other students. For this, he can take training sessions after class. Moreover, he may loseinterest in college education and for this, he could be reminded of theimportance of certificates.

思路：

观点： card game

论点：1. 电脑已经无处不在，card game可以脱离电脑

2. card game非常经典

Response:

For me, I prefercard games. Computer games are fine, but computers have already infiltrated ourlives so much. We work on them, write on them, watch shows on them, etc. It’salways good to just take a break from the computer and play a card game that hasnothing to do with computers. Even the feel of the deck of cards in your handsis such a welcome physical change from staring at a screen. Also, somethingabout cards is so classic. You can sit on your front porch, playing a game ofpoker as the sun sets in the distance, and really feel like someone could havebeen doing the exact same thing a hundred years ago. It’s a very cool sensationand makes card games even more fun.

Thereis no gap for extra requirement. Besides, to succeed a living only means to beprominent in those classes related with the chosen career. Take my brother forexample.

The university plans to offer daily necessities 24/7 and will give outsurveys to students to decide what items to be included. The male student inthe conversation agrees with this idea. First, stores with these items are faraway from the campus and close early at night. Last night, he wanted aspirinsfor headache but could not buy any nearby.
