正确答案:
My Opinion on Campus Flea Market As we university students progress from one grade to another, we may find that besides other things, we have accumulated a large pile of things that is no longer useful, for example, textbooks, test preparation materials, tapes and CDs. How to deal with the pile is really a big problem. Some throw them away, some prepare to keep them as souvenirs, and some sell them in flea market on campus. I find the last choice is the best one, because flea market actually can bring many benefits.
Flea market has much to offer for sellers. Obviously it can help sellers get some money. By selling things that are no longer needed, they can cover some of the original cost. This can be of much importance to students who do not have their own income. Last semester I sold about 30 books in the flea market, and the money was enough to cover my food bill for almost a month. Besides, selling things in flea market can also help sellers cultivate a good habit of making the fullest use of their belongings. This will prevent them from throwing things away at will, thus becoming a thrifty person.
If it just benefits sellers, flea market cannot be so prosperous. In fact, buyers also stand to gain a lot. Things sold in this place are usually much cheaper than the new ones in stores, but the function is almost the same. If they buy their textbooks and other reference books here, they can save about 200 yuan every semester. It is said that second-hand book stores are very popular in foreign countries, and many students from poor families finish their colleges by getting most of books there. Here in China there are also many students troubled by financial difficulty. If university authority can organize a regular market, many poor students will find it easier to finish their university.
The third benefit, which is usually neglected, is the positive influence on environment. This may sound irrelevant, but in fact, when we are using used products, we can help save paper, save printing materials, and this can greatly reduce the negative impact on the already fragile environment. What's more, if we develop the habit of reusing products, we can make our contribution to the establishing of a recycling economy that the government is advocating. Experts estimate that if all textbooks in universities can be used once again, we can save about 100 million yuan in environmental protection. This fully demonstrates the social significance of the tiny market place.
Therefore, if well managed, flea markets on campus can benefit sellers, buyers and the whole society as well. Of course, we should not sell everything used, for some of them may become valuable souvenirs all our life. It will be a pity if you graduate empty-handed. But as for those things that we can get rid of, we should carry them to the flea market rather than the dustbin.
