张家界的“南天一柱”的绝伦惊险，直插云霄，令人惊叹不已。峰体造型奇特，垂直切割明显，仿若刀劈斧削般巍巍屹立于张家界，有顶天立地之势。“南天一柱”的命名，形象、直观、恰如其分地概括了此山的独特形态和险峻特色。“南天”隐隐还会让人想到中国神话传说中的“南天门”，平添了很多浪漫和神秘色彩，具有典型的东方文化色彩。
云雾缭绕、美丽壮观，山脉如在空中漂浮??这是《阿凡达》中的经典场景“哈里路亚山”。长达两个半小时的《阿凡达》科幻片中约有半个小时有以
张家界石英砂岩峰林为背景的“哈里路亚山”，这一中国元素让《阿》剧更富神秘感。张家界方面介绍，“南天一柱”就是《阿》剧里的“哈里路亚山”。
张家界旅游协会在1月19日下午专门召开了“借助《阿凡达》营销张家界”的小范围座谈会，其中包括“做好(证明南天一柱与悬浮山存在关联的技术工作，截图、时间、对比、精华贴和技术贴，做成铁证如山;张家界所有宣传品在改版时加上《阿凡达》的内容;给卡梅隆授予荣誉市民，给予全家终身免票待遇;和中影集团直接对接，开展某种程度的广告宣传工作”等。
此外，为了更好地利用美国科幻大片《阿凡达》促进张家界市旅游事业的发展，“张家界市旅游协会阿凡达主题游综合事务办公室”于1月21日宣布成立，简称“阿办”。
“阿办”的成立，标志着张家界市的旅游事业正式进入“阿凡达年”。推出“阿凡达潘多拉神奇之旅”“阿凡达哈里路亚山玄幻之旅”“阿凡达悬浮山神秘之旅”等多条旅游线路，景点囊括张家界的黄石寨、金鞭溪、袁家界等经典景区，但每条线路又各有自己的风格和特色。张家界一些人士在25日将风景区中的“乾坤柱”更名为“哈里路亚山”。《每日经济新闻》记者注意到，在张家界政府官网新闻中，“南天一柱”被确认更名为阿凡达“哈里路亚山”。此举引来各界关注和争议。

月，甘肃舟曲特大泥石流灾害当天，身处灾区的岁男孩王凯“习惯性”地用手机拍下黑暗中一盏微弱的烛火，并配以文字上传微博。这条微博使王凯成为全国图文“报道”灾情的第一人，成为连接外界和灾区的桥梁。而后，他奔波于灾区并通过手机在微博上记录见闻，被冠以“微博男生”、“一个人的通讯社”等称号。灾难使这个“后”男生学会坚强和担当，在虚拟与现实的“灾难战场”，“后”不仅显得可爱，更令人感到可亲可敬。

[参考范文]
The two pictures look so similar at one glance, but they are totally different. In the first picture, a peasant boy, carrying a heavy bundle of rice straw is out of breath under the great pressure. His hope is to have a school to attend. In the second picture, a student is on his way home from school, a heavy bag of books on his back. What he wishes is that he didn’t have to go to school any more. How can the two boys at the same age have such different ideas about attending school?
The two pictures show some problems in the present education system in China. In the poor countryside, especially in some western parts of China, the education is also poor. There are no buildings for classrooms, let alone good teachers. Children there cannot have regular education. They are sometimes forced to leave their studies because their families cannot afford the necessary fees. However, the situation is totally different in the cities. Almost all the children in the cities can have regular education. They can enjoy the bright classrooms and adequate facilities. But they have their own problems. What they face is the endless homework, which puts so much pressure on them that some students don’t want to continue their studies.
Given the problems above, our government has taken some measures. “The Hope Project” has been in operation to ensure that children in the poor areas can achieve education. Some strategies have also been put into force to reduce the pressure on the students. Teachers are asked not to give too much homework. Emphasis should be put on the improvement of the quality of the students. However, there is a long way to go in the improvement of our education conditions. The whole society should be mobilized to make some contributions to our education.
