HomeworkWrite down your own article(文章)
after class. Pay attention to your
handwriting(书写).ThankyouNowadays, there is a debate(辩论) over the
advantages and disadvantages of the Three Gorges
Dam.
It is widely believed that there are several
positive aspects as follows: Firstly, it can provide
hydro-electric power , reducing the electricity
pressure in middle and eastern China. Secondly, it can
improve the waterway conditions, making it more
convenient by water.
Possible version:However, as a popular saying goes, “every coin
has two sides”. The Three Gorges Dam is no exception.
It has negative aspects. To begin with, it floods many famous historical relics. Additionally, many people have
to move from their homes.
In conclusion, we should try to bring the advantages of the Three Gorges Dam into full play. Only in this way, can we make full use of it to serve us.
