After the 911 happened, the terrorist threat has been headache for most of the western countries. Therefore, the governments order more and more cameras to be installed around in aims to monitor the well-being of some important spots in case of terrorist activities, which however raises the concerns over the abuse of power as invasion of privacy by law enforcement.But if this action fully expose to legitimate process, the benefits with respect to the safety of the public will definitely overweight the concerns of the invasion of privacy.
To protect people from the threat of terrorists is the government's obligation. Increasing the number of cameras around some important facilities such as power plants, airports, expressways and train stations is very necessary because these are not only the most common terrorist targets, but also the way for crime to get away. Without the help of cameras and satellites, it undermines the ability of police department to carry out effective plans to prevent terrorists and bring the murders into justice. Moreover, it is widely believed that the terrorists could have the identification as a legal citizen. For the sake of the security of the society as a whole the police has to be provided with the right to monitor any suspect, no matter he or her is a legal citizen or not. Surely people would have be angry about the fact that they can be monitored at any time or any place. Actually to limit the power of law enforcement, we can enact a legislation to make sure that any action suspected to violate people's privacy has to be in line the law.Sometimes,individual benefits have to give way to the that of the public.
The surveillance equipment is totally out of the need for government to counter terrorist activities which I believe could bring much more damage that the underlying invasion of people's privacy. Let's make effort together to protect our country, for our own sake and the offspring's.

My Medical Accident
There was a embarrassing thing happened to me once. My parents were too busy to be around when I was a child. They were afraid that I will have any accident, when they were absent. Therefore, they put me in a boarding school where every class had a child care teacher.
There was a night when the teacher was about to give out some strange pills to all of the students after the dinner in the classroom. She said at the front of blackboard: every body has to take one piece of this medicine. It helps to kill the worms in your stomach. The students in the seats fell into a curiosity. Personally I was delighted because I caught the words "kill the worm" in my mind. After everybody got a piece, I quickly finished it in a hurry. However I noticed that some girl seemed unwilling to take the pills, so I asked them. They said they are so afraid of taking this medicines, because they don't trust that care teacher. "Could you please take pills for us?" . You know what, I was totally beyond willingness, because that means I can kill more worms! Then I took the pills as delightedly as the girls turned and walked away.
After we went back to dormitory, the teacher came to me with a fearful expression and said in anger: "did you take the girls' pills?!" "No, no I....I did not...." My little body seemed like can not withstand the teacher overwhelming anger. I answered trying to cover what I did with no idea about how she can got the information. "If you take more pills, you will die!!!!" "OMG! Okay okay I did, what about now? What do need to do now??" Teacher said unhappily:"Go to the clinic room with me, throw it up!" I started to ran right away with the teacher yelling behind "easy, easy..." When entered the clinic room I only know the washbasin was the target. Even before getting close to the corner, I start to put my fingers into the mouth trying to reach deeper. At that time I know exactly the wired sighting from stranger is beyond my concern. Finally I was sure that the pills have been cleaned off until I got a vision of the food I had in dinner before.
In a few minutes, the teacher came in. She checked me out with the doctor. Then I went back with the nervousness dying down. But do you know what makes me more embarrassing? I don't even know whether taking two pieces of that small pill will truly kill me! Anyway, from then on I never take more pills than the doctor prescribe but only less.

The Beach Nearby My School
Our university is located next to a beach which is a famous site in Shandong province. Every year there are so many people coming after the fame. The bathing beach starts with a soft polishing grass ground covering fresh-smelled soil.Siting on the grass with the breeze which comes from the remote sea bringing salty air would be the best relax for the residents living nearby.Between the grass and the sea lies a about 3000 meters long sandy beach which is decorated by all kinds of people,arranging from the old to babies, and lovers to family who are all falling in the joy that this scene brings. There comes a sense of happiness overwhelming! If we take a look to the remote, the sea looks like a huge blue moving crystal, so pure and clean that I can't help closing the eyes and taking a deep breath. With the salty fresh air coming all the way down to my stomach, I can clearly feel the whole sea in my body,with the pulse running as rhythm of the the waves. Yes! That's it!
