¡¡¡¡Conservation Essay
¡¡¡¡Robert Frost once said ¡°nothing gold can stay¡±. Today those famous words are closely connected to our environment. Scientists and researchers are 1)the negative effects of modern technology on our environment and our lives. Cars, computers, refrigerators and 2)all other electric inventions consume natural resources. These resources are often 3), causing a harsh supply and demand crisis. Fuel prices will 4) to rise, which means that people will have to find a new mode of transportation. Coal will 5)out, therefore bringing an end to our main source of electricity. Rainforests will 6), causing a shortage of paper on which to write conservation essays. When viewed by short 7) effects, society does not consider environmental issues to be important¡ªwhat is the big deal about cutting down a few trees? The long term results of such massive negligence are scary enough to make me think twice before tossing my 8) out the window. The bottom line is that people need to be more conservative of our natural resources before they are gone.

Passage 2.
Plagiarism: Selfª²destruction
¡¡¡¡Why do so many people use planetpapers.com simply to 1) other people¬ðs writing? Is it even possible that someone cannot write their own essay, or that someone cannot read a book of any length? If you plagiarize, aren¬ðt you 2) yourself to failure? And if you cannot gather information, aren¬ðt you opening yourself to attacks from the System?
¡¡¡¡Easy come, easy go.
¡¡¡¡À´µÃÈÝÒ×È¥µÃ¿ì¡£I know many students who use sites such as planetpapers.com to gather researches, 3) other people¬ðs ideas and papers. Yet it still amazes me that people could be so lazy. Think about it: in high school, you are already expected to know whatever material you¬ðve been taught. If you cannot get 4) high school without cheating, how well will you do in college? Professors check whether you have cheated, and you are required to write lengthy papers based on detailed research, which is not present on many Internet paper mills and notes sites. If you cannot read, write, and think on your own, you are 5) . Maybe not now, maybe not during your high school career, but eventually, you will 6) a class or get expelled for cheating. If your job requires you to write essays or gather information, and you cheat, (gather information without citing it and getting permission) you will be sued and fired.
¡¡¡¡During high school and college, you are more likely to hurt your grade than to get into serious trouble. (However, if your paper sounds too well written, or if a teacher finds that you stole information, you can still be expelled.) Let¬ðs face it: Cliffs Notes aren¬ðt the Holy Grail of research. If you read Cliffs Notes or Monarch Notes or planetpapers.com¬ð essays, you are 7) to miss important details. Any decent teacher will check whether you read a book, and to do so, he will ask you details and concepts from the work that you did not read. Cliffs Notes shortchange you; there are few concepts and almost no details in those. Monarch Notes only have concepts. And most planetpapers.com essays are written by highª²scholars, filled with typos and inaccuracies, and nonª²scholarly.
¡¡¡¡For the lazy, Cliffs Notes, Monarch Notes, and planetpapers.com are an easy way to 8) work, practice, and thought. However, for the scholar or anyone who wants to be more successful in school, these resources should be just that resources. They are intended to supplement reading, not to replace it. When students read from these works to better understand what they have already read, they are preparing themselves for the real world. And when they enter it, they will be more successful than cheaters.

¡¡¡¡Some Tips to Workaholics
¡¡¡¡Lately, your job has taken up much of your time. You¬ðve even started bringing work at home. You spend Saturdays and Sundays with your head bent on your work. And you¬ðre supposed to spend these days with your family, or friends, or for your relaxation!
¡¡¡¡No longer do you work in order to live, but you now live in order to work. A workaholic. This is what you have become. Here are some tips to help you, the workaholic, reª²focus and get the best out of life and keep you healthy and alive in the long run too!
¡¡¡¡First, eight hours of sleep! Make it a point to get at least eight hours of sleep. While food has substitutes in the form of natural medicines or artificial foods, there are no substitutes for sleep. Don¬ðt believe that you can always ¡°catch some sleep later.¡± Your body cannot make up for lost sleep because it is not physiologically possible.
¡¡¡¡Second, strictly family on weekends! Resolve to make Saturdays and Sundays strictly for family time. And stick to this! Mondays until Fridays you make an excuse not to relax and spend time with your family because it¬ðs work time, why not make a similar excuse for Saturdays and Sundays?
¡¡¡¡Third, work up those muscles! Exercise, exercise, exercise! Set aside at least an hour each day for exercise. Your body needs to be conditioned, and working nonª²stop isn¬ðt going to give it the proper physical conditioning it needs. Since most workaholics tend to have their behinds stuck on their chairs, it¬ðs even more important that you get some exercise.
¡¡¡¡If you start following the tips outlined today, then you¬ðve just taken the first step to living a healthy, successful and happy life.
