Should I choose a good major or a good university? Senior three student will
face the question after they pass by the college entrance examination. Some students
prefer to consider majors first so that they can learn what they are interested. It will
also make it possible for them to do their favorite jobs in the future. Therefore, those
who think differently believed that the environment is more important to one’s
development. They also believe that students graduate from leading universities are
often more possible to find a good job. Honest, the best choice is to choose a good
major at a good university. But if we can obtain both, the first thing to consider is a
good major, because no matter where we study, they can still achieve a lot in a certain
field if we try our best.
The word addiction usually makes you think of alcohol or drugs, but in modern-day society we are seeing some new kinds of addictions. Some people are compulsive(难以自制的) shoppers. Others find it impossible to pull themselves away from their work. Still others spend countless hours watching TV or playing computer games
Over the years, shopping has become a very common activity. Many people enjoy going to malls or stores more and more every day, but it's more than a common hobby for some of them. They have turned into shopaholics. They are people who simply enjoy shopping and walking around spending money without being able to stop doing it. They are hooked on shopping and usually buy things that they don't need. Even though they don't have enough money, they buy everything they want.
The question is: why do they have this addiction? There isn't a specific answer. Some people go shopping when they are sad, worried, upset or lonely and they want to feel better. They use this activity as a way to forget their problems. Shopaholics say that they feel more important and better after they buy something. They also tend to have this addiction when they feel guilty.
Shopaholism seems to be a harmless addiction, but it can ___________. Some of them can be psychological. If this is the case, people addicted to shopping should go to a support group to help them break this habit. However, the process, like for most addictions, is long, and they suffer a lot. It can also cause financial problems. They just think about satisfying their feelings, so they spend money they don't have. They get deep in debt, and they can even go bankrupt and get sent to prison.
