9.1 million applicants are expected to sit this year's college entrance exam on June 7 and 8. As the Chinese exam has just finished, the composition topics of the exam were revealed one after another, causing debates on the Internet.

National version
During your time in high school, there must be something you cannot forget, be it a heated argument with your classmates or the inspiration from others.

Some agency has carried out a research on the relationships between classmates in schools. The result shows that 60 percent of the students find the relationships consent, while 36 percent of them consider it OK, and 4 percent thinks the relationship is unsatisfied. The reason of the intense relationship can be over self-awareness, personality clashes or competition.

Another 72 percent of the students are quite confident about creating a harmonious atmosphere.
