since we enter the 21st century,the spirit of cooperation has become more and more important.win-win is a popular word. in this way, one plus one is actually bigger than rather than just equal to two.
in this highly developed society,the progress of science and technology is the result of cooperation.the human genome project is a good example.more than 1000 top scientists from different countries have participated in the great project. every scientist may be a 'one',but one plus one, the final result is much greater than 'two'.
the theme of our society is not competition, but cooperation. every stage of practice shows that people with spirit of cooperation or team work will win success much more easily than those without the spirit, and a country or region will develop faster and better if cooperating with the outside world instead of self-enclosed. we can benefit from each oher if we create value together.we must correctly handle the relationship between cooperation and competition, and learn to cooperate with other. we need to make one and one bigger than two.
the terrible disaster caused more then 40075 inhabitants deaths and countless injured up to18:00 may 20th. the 8-day search-and- rescue efforts have put more strain on people's nerves. many chinese spent the agonizing week following news on tv, on net, or glancing over newspapers and on public transport during rush hours. even strangers exchanged information on the updated death toll and the latest outcome of rescue missions; cheered for every survival narrowly escaping hell; mourned each new death; and prayed for the strong lives still trapped in the debris. but hope is dimming as time is running out. so many people lost their lives in a flash, so many happy family become destitute and homeless far and near, so many buildings collapsed without any hesitate, the earth cracked, and even worse, it rained while others try to rescue them…i can not image how sad a child will be that she or he turn out to be orphan after this earthquake.or the old lost all her offspring in this earthquake.people begin to wonder what they can do to help those who are still suffering.
what else can i do? has been the question on everyone's mind since the deadly quake hit sichuan province.
after all, only a few warm-hearted volunteers could access the front lines of combating disaster considering the complicated conditions and fear of potential calamity. people can be seen everywhere lining up to make donations. in many cities, blood banks have been reported up to saturation; and volunteers wishing to donate blood have to register and wait for to be notified. more and more people are eager to be involved in the rescue and relief work that they are becoming unsatisfied with the disaster-relief efforts made outside of the quake-ravaged areas; and volunteers are descending upon the worst-hit areas in growing numbers.
