Some University Students Want Schools to Return Their Money
They wanted to experience college life, but their universities sent them home to learn from online classes during the coronavirus crisis.
Now, students across the United States are taking legal action against over 20 colleges and universities. They want the schools to return part of the money they paid for tuition, meal plans and housing costs. The students say they are not getting the quality of education they were promised.
2.小站托福
范文-你喜欢住在农村还是城市
Compared to living in a city, I would like to live in the countryside. The reasons are as below.
Firstly, living in the countryside means we can appreciate the healthier environment. Nowadays, people living in city have to suffer the air and water pollution caused by the high speeding development of industry.
Secondly, we can enjoy the slow pace of life in the countryside. In big cities, pedestrians are always walking fast and it seems like they would feel unwilling to stop.
But with the easy life style of countryside, they don' t have to deal with the high pressure resulted from working and living. So it'l be much more comfortable to live there.
That's why I prefer to live in the countryside.
范文-艺术家对社会有贡献
Yes, I agree with the statement that artists and musicians are significant to a society. My reasons are as follows.
Firstly, artists and musicians can make the society more colorful by enriching the variety of culture.
Secondly, people can benefit a lot from the works of artists and musicians. For example, they can draw some pictures or listen to some favorite music to have a good relaxation after a day's hard-work.
范文-自己做饭吃VS去外面吃
I would rather buy fresh food and prepare it myself.
First, food which is already prepared will be much more expensive than raw material because labor cost keeps increasing nowadays. And prepare those food material won't cost us too much time.
Second sometimes food material prepared by others can be unhealthy or even harmful to our health, because additive and preservative will be added into food during the process.
These substance are used to make food look like it is still in good conditions. If we buy raw material and handle it ourselves. we can avoid this kind of bad things. So prepare food ourselves is better compared with getting
processed food.

please introduce yourself（自我介绍）
Good morning, dear professor. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to have this interview. I’m Li Fang, coming from a beautiful ancient city, Huizhou, Anhui Province. I graduated from Anhui Normal University, majoring in Mathematics.
During my four years of study, I was granted the first-class scholarship every semester. I have mastered both basic and professional skills in Mathematics. And I have passed CET-4 and CET-6 in my sophomore year.
I also did part-time jobs in my spare time. The knowledge I learned from university helped me a lot in my work. If I am lucky enough to be a student of this great university, I will try my best to develop my abilities in related aspects and try to be a qualified graduate. That’s all about me. Thank you.
What’s the climate like in your hometown?
There are four seasons in my hometown. It’s windy and dry in spring. The temperature ranges between 12 to 25 degrees Celsius. In summertime, it is quite hot, I think, like about 35 to 37 degrees Celsius, and always with high rainfall, some areas reaching 30 millimeters, even 50 millimeters. The engines of cars tend to be out of work during the rainy season. And it is dangerous for people to walk in the street when there is a storm.
Autumn is probably the best season; it is very comfortable—mild and pleasant, not too cold or hot. It’s also a harvest season. Winter is cold and snowy, about 4 degrees Celsius.
