essay with a brief description of the picture and then express your views on the influence of smart
phone addiction. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.


【范文】

Smart Phone Addiction

Has it ever happened to you? Have you been among friends，whose eyes focused on their
smart phones, without saying a word for a long time? As is illustrated in the picture above, lots of
people suffer from that “smart phone addiction”.

Ironically, modern technology, which is supposed to enhance our contact with each other, has
actually become the barrier to personal communication. That phenomenon is superficially
plausible, but it is harmful in the long run. As for individuals, the unwillingness to communicate
may produce the estrangement between people. Concerning groups, relations are indispensible for
interpersonal communication in the course of team work. From a social aspect, the survival and
growth of a group is mainly dependent upon the sound communication with others. If not, the
world would become a horrible place filled with misunderstanding and indifference.

We can conclude from the previous discussion that interpersonal communication is of vital
importance to us. It is high time that we put down the smart phones and resume communication
with others. Only in this way can we make our society more peaceful and harmonious.

智能手机瘾

在你身边发生过这样的事情吗？你是否经历过与一群朋友在一起，大家却都只盯着自己
的手机，相互之间长时间一言不发？如上图所示，现在有很多人都有这种“智能手机瘾”。

现代科技本该用来增强人们之间的联系，但极具讽刺意味的是，它反而成了人际交往的
障碍。这种现象看似合理，但从长远来看，贻害无穷。就个人来说，不愿与人交流会使得人
与人之间产生隔阂。就团队来说，团体合作都离不开人际交流。就社会来说，社会的存续和
发展离不开有效的人际交流。否则，我们的世界将充满着误解和冷漠。


通过以上讨论，可以得出结论，人际交流对于我们来说至关重要。我们是时候该放下手
机，重拾人际交流了！只有这样，我们的社会才能更加安定和谐。

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Which Is
More Important, Diploma or Competence? You should write at least 120 words but no more than
180 words.

对于学历和能力哪个重要，不同人有不同的意见：

1.有人认为高学历是打开企业大门的敲门砖

2.有人则认为专业技术能力和经验更具优势

3.我的看法



【范文】

Which Is More Important, Diploma or Compet

ence?

Which counts more，diploma or competence? It is a much- discussed question. Many people
believe diploma is of great importance since it is the first requirement for many job descriptions.
With an increasing number of graduates pouring into the job market, diploma becomes a crucial
criteria for the interview during the first round.

However, there are many people holding the opinion that competence is much more important
than diploma in practice. Many company favor those who have professional skills and practical
experience in dealing with emergencies, especially for those who can take an initiative when given
an assignment or a challenging task.

To the best of my knowledge，it is reasonable to say that diploma is important when people
hunt for a job, while competence is relatively more important when you deal with a practical
problem. Therefore，it is better to get the diploma first and then make every effort to put what you
have learnt into practice.



【译文】

学历和能力哪个更重要？

学历和能力哪个更重要？这个问题一直备受人们争论。许多人认为学历更重要，因为它
是许多工作要求的第一标准。随看越来越多的毕业生涌入就业市场，毕业证书成为公司第一
轮面试的重要标准。

但是，有人认为在实际中工作能力比学历更重要。许多公司更青昧有专业技能和实践经
验并能够处理紧急事件的人才，尤其是那些能够主动承担具有挑战性工作的人。

在我看来，人们找工作时证书很重要；而在解决实际问题时能力更重要。因此，首先应
该获得证书，然后努力将所学到的理论应用到实践中。



Topic 3

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Failure Is the
Mother of Success by commenting on the saying “Sometimes you have to fall before you can fly”.
You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.




【范文】

Failure Is the Mother of Success

The proverb “Sometimes you have to fall before you can fly” conveys such a moral that
failure comes first, followed by success, namely, failure is the mother of success. This rule holds
true for many cases in our life.

When someone does something, he often fails before he can overcome obstacles and then
move forward. Just think of the story of the great inventor Thomas Edison. He failed 10,000 times
before he invented the electric light. The voluminous personal papers of Edison revealed that his
inventions typically did not spring to life in a flash of inspiration but evolved slowly from
previous works. It is believed that sometimes a series of apparent failures are really followed by
successes.

In the long journey of life，we will inevitably encounter all kinds of difficulties and obstacles.
We should have a doom unbeatable faith and determined will

and be not afraid of falling in order
to climb to the peak. Please remember if we want to fly freely in the sky of success, we have to
fall first.



【译文】

失败乃成功之母

有句谚语说，“有时候，你得先跌下去，才能飞起来”，它传达了这样一个寓意：先经历
失败，紧随其后的就是成功，即失败乃成功之母。这条准则适用于我们生活中的很多情况。

当有人在做一些事情的时候，在克服障碍向前迈进之前，他总是经历一些失败。想一
想伟大的发明家托马斯·爱迪生的故事。他失败了一万次才发明了电灯。大量有关爱迪生的
私人文件显示，他的发明通常并不是源于瞬间迸发的灵感，而是之前大量工作的逐步积累。
人们相信，一系列明显的失败之后，紧接着就是成功。

在人生的途中，我们不可避免地会遇到各种各样的困难和障碍。为了攀登高峰，我们应
该有无与伦比的信心和坚定的意志。请记住，如果我们想在成功的天空中自由飞翔，我们必
须先跌下去。





Topic 4

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Credit. You
should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

1.信用对一个人的发展很重要

2.现在社会面临信用危机

3.如何提高信用度



【范文】

Credit

Credit is of great importance to one's development. Without credit, one wouldn’t get trust
from others, let alone get help from others or cooperate with others.

However, nowadays the whole society is faced with “credit crisis”. To begin with, business is
threatened by the lack of credit and trust between enterprises and banks. According to a recent
survey conducted by the People’s Bank of China, a total amount of 367,240,000 Yuan debts were
not paid off to banks by the enterprises in the year 2006. In addition, lies often exist between


friends. Xiao Wang—my neighbor— was persuaded to buy certain insurance product and at last
found that he was cheated.

We should take measures to improve people’s sense of credit and establish stricter laws to
punish the behavior of those who do not have credit. Only in these ways can the credit of the
whole society be enhanced.



【译文】

信用

信用对于一个人的发展很重要。一个人不讲信用，就不会赢得他人的信任，更别说他人
的帮助或者合作了。

然而，如今整个社会都面临着“信用危机”。首先，商业受到企业和银行之间缺乏信任
的威胁。根据中国人民银行的最新调查，2006年企业亏欠银行的债务高达3.6724亿元。另
外，朋友之间也存在欺骗。我的邻居小王最近被朋友劝去买保险，结果发现自己被骗了。

我们应该采取措施提高人们之间的信任感，并制定严格的法

律制度惩罚那些不诚信的
人。只有这样，才能提高整个社会的信用度。

1.一些大学生认为住在校外好

2.另一些大学生认为住学生宿舍好

3.我的看法



【范文】

Which Do You Prefer—Living on or out of the Campus?

As regards the choice between college students’ living on and out of the campus, there has
been a heated discussion among the general public in our society. People who lend their support to
living out of the campus argue that this kind of independent life will protect their privacy and help
individual development, which will then make college life more diversified and colorful.

By contrast, others hold that college students should live on campus. According to a recent
survey a high proportion of parents as high as 98 percent believe that collective life will benefit
their children in shaping them to be well disciplined. What’s more，campus can provide students
with a safe living environment and good academic atmosphere.

As far as I am concerned, the best choice is living on campus, by which I can acquire the art
of interpersonal communication through living with people from different places.

【译文】

住在校内宿舍还是校外，你倾向于哪一种？

关于大学生对住在校内宿舍和住在校外的选择，在社会民众中引起一场激烈的讨论。支
持学生住在校外的人认为，这种独立的生活可以保护学生的个人隐私，而且有助于学生个人
发展，进而可以使大学生活更加丰富多彩。

相反，另外一些人主张大学生应该住在校内。根据最近的一个调查显示，比例高达98%
的家长认为，集体生活将使他们的孩子更加有纪律性。而且，校园能提供给学生安全的生活


环境和良好的学术氛围。

就我而言，最好的选择是住在校内，这可以让我通过与来自不同地方的人一起居住来学
习人际交流的技巧。

Starting Career in aBig City or a Small Town?

Asregards where to startcareer,there has been a heated discussionamong college students.
Graduates who prefer to stay in big cities after graduation believe that big cities mean moreopportunities to see the big world and more space for career development.

【译文】
在大城市还是小城镇开始职业生涯？
关于在哪里开始职业生涯，在大学生之间产生了热议。倾向于毕业后待在大城市的毕业
生认为，大城市意味着更多观察大世界的机会和更大的事业发展空间。

相反，另外一些人愿意在小城镇开始他们的职业生涯。椐最近的一个调查显示，比例高
达58.3%的毕业生想过一种更加安静、竞争不太激烈的生活。除此之外，通过在小城镇工作，
他们能更加容易获得领导的关注，而且可能更容易获得升迁。

就我而言，我倾向于在大城市，比如北京，在那里开始职业生涯，我能够结识来自不同
地方和有不同文化背景的人。我可以从他们身上学到一些从教科书上无法学到的东西。

【范文】

Be a Modest Person

As an old saying goes, “Thewise man knows he knows nothing, the fool thinks heknows all”.


Truly wise men are always modest; by contrast, those who know nothing are always conceited.

The wise work hard and aim at learning more to improve themselves. They cherish modesty
and are unwilling to show off their talents, but they are willing to exert an imperceptible influence
on others. Still waters run deep However, the fool who have little knowledge or no comprehension
likes to show off before people. They have to conceal their superficiality and ignorance in a showy
manner. They like to lecture to people and are used to getting the upper hand.

To my mind，a man with modesty, gratitude and tolerance deserves respect. We should try our
best to be a wise and modest person.



【译文】

做一个谦逊的人

正如一句名言所说，“智者知不足，愚者多自负”。真正的智者通常很谦虚，相比之下，
那些知识浅薄的人却很自负。

智者刻苦工作，目的在于学习更多知识充实完善自我。他们总是谦虚，不喜炫耀，却愿
意潜移默化地影响他人。静水流深。愚者浅薄无知，却喜欢人前卖弄。他们不得不用炫耀的
方式掩盖自己的肢浅和物质。他们好为人师，习惯于处处占上风。

在我看来，谦虚、心怀感激、宽容大

度的人值得尊敬。我们应该努力成为一名谦逊的智
者。

2.证件考试能使学生受益，但也有一定的负面影响

3.作为当代大学生，我认为……



【范文】

Certificate Craze

According to a recent survey conducted by China Daily, the past five years has witnessed a
sharp increase in the number of college students who are crazy about getting certificates, from
1,254,251 to 11,548,254. Campuses are full of all kinds of certificates.

However, this has both advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, in order to get
certificates, students have to pay more attention to studying instead of playing. They can learn a
lot from the process of preparing for the examinations, which will benefit their later life. What’s
more, those certificates can help them succeed in applying for jobs. On the other hand, it also has
many negative influences. Some students are very blind. They just go with the flow and don’t
consider from their own points of view. Many unnecessary certificates waste them a lot of time
and money.

In my opinion, we should take action from our own reality and try to get some useful
certificates.

【译文】

考证热

据《中国日报》最新调查显示，在近五年里，热衷于考试以获取证书的大学生数量急剧
增长，从五年前的1254251增长到了现在的11548254。各种各样的证件充斥着大学校园。


然而，考证既给学生带来了好处，又有很多的负面影响。一方面，为了获得证书，学生
不得不花更多的精力在学习上。他们在准备考试的过程中学到了很多，这对他们后来的学习
生活大有益处。而且，他们获得的证书对将来找工作也有着莫大的帮助。另一方面，考证又
有着很多的负面影响。一些学生考证很盲目，他们只是随大流而没有从自身角度考虑。一些
没必要的证书浪费了他们大把的时间和金钱。

在我看来，我们应该从自身的实际出发，通过考试获得一些实用的证书。

Interests of College Students. Please give a brief description of the chart first and then make
comments on it. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.




【范文】

Reading Interests of College Students

As can be seen from the bar chart, students are more inclined to reading the following four
kinds of English articles. The most popular is news articles, with the number of students
accounting for 53% of the total. Those who like story articles make up 26 percent

, ranking in
second spot. The third group are those who prefer science articles and only seven percent of the
students are interested in reading articles about learning methods.

Most students are fond of reading news articles, because reading news is the best way to know
the world outside and learn the fresh things. The story articles, through the fascinating story plot
and vivid characters, give people a lot of imagination. Some students who love science will
choose popular science articles, which can satisfy their curiosity for nature. As for the articles
about learning methods, perhaps they are so dull and rigid that students can hardly take an
initiative to read them.

Generally, college students choose the type of English reading materials according to their
interests. Obviously, interesting articles can easily draw more students，attention.

【译文】

大学生阅读喜好

通过条形图中的信息我们可以看出，学生们更倾向于阅读以下四类英文文章：其中最受
欢迎的是新闻类，其学生数量占总体的53%；其次是喜欢故事类文章的学生位居第二，占
26%；排名第三的是喜欢科普类文章；而只有7%的学生对阅读学习方法类文章感兴趣。

大多数学生喜欢新闻类的文章，是因为通过阅读新闻是学生了解外在世界和学习新事物
的最佳途径。而故事类的文章则通过引人入胜的故事情节和鲜活的人物性格，留给人们无限
的遐想。一些热爱科学的学生则会选择科普类文章，以满足他们对自然界的好奇之心。至于
学习方法类文章，或许是由于它们过于枯燥死板，学生们很难主动去阅读。


一般来说，大学生们还是会根据自己的兴趣爱好选择阅读的英文读物。当然，有趣的文
章会更吸引大家的眼球。

Online Education

Nowadays, online education has become very popular among people. According to a recent
survey conducted by CCTV, the past five years has witnessed a sharp increase in the number of


people who has once received this kind of education, to an astonishing number of 9,745,000.

To account for this phenomenon, people have come up with various reasons listed below. To
begin with, compared with having classes at school, online education saves us time, energy and
money, especially for those who are too busy to have full-time education. What’s more, the
schedule is flexible so that we can have a free choice to study what we need in urgency and decide
when, where and how to study.

As far as I am concerned，I appreciate this new form of education and also have got some
benefits from it. It’s indeed a helpful complement to the traditional education.

【译文】

在线教育

现在，在线教育已经非常流行。根据中央电视台最近发起的一项调查显示，在过去五
年里，曾接受过这种在线教育的人数急剧增长，这到非常惊人的数字——9,745,000人。

为了解释这种现象，人们提出了以下几点理由。首先，相比在学校上课，在线教育节
省了时间、精力和金钱，尤其是对于那些太忙而不能进行全日制学习的人来说更是如此。而
且，在线教育的日程表设置得很灵活，因此，我们可以自由地选择学习我们急需学习的东西，
决定何时何地去学以及如何去学。

就我而言，我欣赏这种新的教育形

式，而且也已经从中获益匪浅。它确实是传统教育
的一种有效的补充。



Topic 12

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay. You should start your
essay with a brief description of the picture and then express your views on the importance of
inheriting the traditional virtues. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.










【范文】

The Importance of Inheriting the Traditional Virtues

As we can see from the picture above, when the boy was small, his father helped him wash his
feet to show a father’s love and care. When the boy grew up and his father grew old, he took care
of his father by washing his father’s feet. The picture illustrates a long-treasured virtue in
China——respecting the old and caring for the young.

It is well-known that there are many traditional virtues in China, among which respecting the
old and caring for the young is regarded as the most important one. When a person is a little baby,
it is his parents who should take the responsibility to take care of him. However, as he grows into
his adulthood, his parents surely have become old. At this time, what his parents need is his care
and love. Otherwise, they would feel lonely and abandoned.


It goes without saying that the traditional virtue needs to be passed down from generation to
generation. Respecting the old and caring for the young is only one of the many traditional virtues
of China, and all traditional virtues should be inherited by young people. It is the young people’s
responsibility to perpetuate our splendid traditional virtues and make our society more
harmonious.

【译文】

继承传统美德的重要性

如上图所示，小男孩很小的时候他爸爸帮他洗脚来表现对他的爱和关心。当这个男孩逐
渐长大，他爸爸逐渐变老的时候，他通过帮他爸爸洗脚来照顾他。这幅图表现了中国一个长
期受到珍视的美德——尊老爱幼。

我们都知道中国有很多传统美德，其中尊老爱幼被视作是最重要的。当孩子小的时候，
他父母有责任照顾他。然而，当孩于逐渐长大成人，他的父母就会变老。这时，老人需要的
是孩子的关心和爱。否则，老人就会有孤独和被抛弃的感觉。

毫无疑问，传统美德需要被一代代的传承下去。尊老爱幼只是中国众多传统美德中的一
种，所有的传统美德都应该传承给年轻人。传承我们优良的传统美德，让社会变得更加和谐
是年轻人的责任。

【范文】

On Food Safety

Over the past couple of years, several cases of the food scandal have been disclosed on
various media. The problem of food safety has become a hot button across society.

There are a couple of reasons accounting for this phenomenon. To begin with, economic
driving force behind this undesirable tide is an obvious factor. Furthermore, the neglect of moral
education gives rise to the rising rate of the problem. More importantly, the lack of adequate
regulation and punishment on those illegal producers enforces the trend.

As the saying goes, it is better late than never. In my opinion, prompt and strict measures
should be taken to turn back this evil trend. The government should launch a massive moral
campaign to educate all citizens and draw up tougher laws to crack down those irresponsible
corporations and prohibit them from entering the food industry again. I am firmly convinced that
through our combined efforts we are bound to enjoy more risk-free foods in the future.



【译文】

食品安全

在过去几年里，一些关于食品安全的丑闻频频在各种媒体中曝光。食品安全问题已经
成为全社会关注的焦点。

造成这个现象的原因有几个。首先，在这不良趋势的背后，利益驱动力的存在是一个明
显的因素。另外，道德教育的忽视导致了该问题的加剧。更重要的是，对这种非法生产商缺


乏足够的监管和惩罚，也促使了这种不良趋势的蔓延。

常言道，亡羊补牢，为时不晚。在我看来，我们应该赶紧采取严格措施来扭转这股不正
之风。政府应推行一场大规模的道德运动来教育民众认识到这一点，并且政府还应该制定出
更严厉的法律来打击那些不负责任的企业，禁止他们再次进入食品行业。我坚信，通过我们
的共同努力，未来我们必定能够享受到安全的食品。

The Purposeof College Education

Nowadays, with the policyof collegeenrollment expansion inChina,higher education is nolonger the privilege only enjoyed byminorities. The past decade has witnessed a steady increase
in the percentageof people owning college diploma, from 8.3% to 23.5%.

However, every coin has two sides. Everyyear so many graduates pour into the employmentmarket and greatlyintensify the competition in job market. Plenty of themremain unemployed.
Consequently, the concept of “uselessness of study”prevails among the people who adoptanegative attitude toward higher education and b

elieve it futile to pursue a degree.

As far as I am concerned, the purposeof university education is not only to equip studentswith knowledgeandprofessionalskills, butto cultivatequalified citizenstodealwith variouschallenges with full developed character and talent. Therefore, as college students, we shouldvalue the learning opportunity to perfect ourselves for the future competition.

【译文】
大学教育的目的
现在，随着高校扩招政策的实行，在中国高等教育不再仅仅是少数人的特权。过去十年
见证了拥有大学文凭的人数比例的增长，从十年前的8.3%稳定增长到了现在的23.5%。

然而，任何事物都是有两面性的。每年如此多的毕业生涌入就业市场，加剧了找工作的
竞争力。他们中的许多人无法找到工作。所以，在那些对高等教育采取消极态度并且认为攻
读学位只是徒劳的人中，“读书无用论”开始盛行。

我认为，大学教育的目的不仅仅是用知识和职业技能来武装学生，而且还要培养合格的
公民，以全面发展的人格和才能处理各种各样的挑战。因此，作为大学生，我们必须珍惜学
习机会，完善自我，来迎接未来的竟争。

【范文】

The Popularity of Self-Drive Tourism

As more and more people own private cars, self-drive tourism has gained increasing
popularity. According to a recent survey conducted by China Daily, the past five years has
witnessed a sharp increase in the percentage of self-drive tourism, from 4.5 to 25.9.

It goes without saying that self-drive tourism has its advantages. To begin with, self-drive
tourists can enjoy the full freedom of itinerary, being free to choose the destination instead of
hurrying after the guide from one place to another. In addition，avoiding the jostling crowd and
saving the trouble of booking tickets, tourists will surely feel more comfortable and convenient.
However, self-drive tourism has disadvantages, too. The driver may be unfamiliar with the route
and driving itself sometimes is a little tiring.

As far as I am concerned, I prefer self-drive tourism because this way of traveling is more
challenging and gives me more pleasure of sightseeing.



【译文】

自驾游的盛行

随着越来越多的人拥有私家车，自驾游越来越流行。据《中国日报》最新调查显示，在
过去五年里，采取自驾游的人数比例急剧增加，从4.5%增加到了25.9%。

不言而喻，自驾游有很多优点。首先，自驾旅游者可以享受旅程中的自由，可以自由地
选择

目的地，而不是随着导游匆匆忙忙从一个地方走到另一个地方。另外，自驾旅游避免了
拥挤，免去了订票的麻烦，游客自然会感觉到更加舒适和方便。然而，自驾游也有弊端。司
机可能对线路不熟悉，而且驾车本身有时候也很累。

就我而言，我更倾向于自驾游，因为这种旅行方式更具有挑战性，而且给予我更多观光
的乐趣。

Traffic Jam

Nowadays，the problem of traffic congestion has become increasingly serious in big cities.
According to a recent survey conducted by CCTV, a high proportion of people as high as 74.5
percent in Beijing and Shanghai admit that traffic jam wastes them more than 2 hours every day.

To account for this phenomenon, people have come up with various reasons listed below. To
begin with, more and more people buy private cars, which gives rise to more serious traffic
congestion. In addition, a rising number of people from rural areas are pouring into big cities,
among whom many lack the sense of abiding by traffic rules, which will undoubtedly have a bad
effect on traffic.


Serious as the problem seems, we can take some measures to deal with it. Establishing more
convenient public transportation services and educating people to improve the sense of abiding by
traffic rules should be a good choice.

如今，大城市的交通堵塞问题越来越严重。根据中央电视台的最新调查，在北京和上海

My View on Spam Message

With the increasing use of cell phones, spam message has become a hated problem. Take
Beijing as an example, the past five years has witnessed

a sharp increase in the number of spam
message people received per day from 2.7 to 8.3.

To account for this phenomenon, people have come up with various reasons listed below. To
begin with, for senders，they can advertise their product in such a cheap way. What’s more, for
those in charge of personal information of cell phone users, some of them can not resist the
temptation to make profit simply by disclosing information to those law breakers.

Serious as the problem seems, we can take effective measures to deal with it. The
government should set up laws to punish both senders and those who disclose information, and the
media should call on people to resist such kind of immoral deeds.

我对垃圾短信的看法

随着手机的日益普遍，垃圾短信也成了一个令人厌恶的问题。以北京为例，在过去五年
中，人们每天接收的垃圾短信数量已经从2.7条增加到8.3条。

人们认为出现这种现象的原因主要有以下几点。首先，对于垃圾短信发送者来说，他们
可以以低廉的价格给自己的产品做广告。另外，在掌握了手机使用者的私人信息的人中，有
些人抗拒不了仅仅通过泄露个人信息就能赚钱的诱惑。

尽管垃圾短信现象很严重，我们仍然可以采取有效措施来解决这一问题。政府应该制定
法律惩罚那些发送垃圾短信和泄露个人信息的人，媒体也应该呼吁人们抵制这种不道德的行
为。

Students’ Preference for Internet Rather than Library

In the past ten years，as is shown in the bar chart, students’ time spent in library dropped
tremendously from 20 hours per week to about 12, while their time spent on the internet soared
from approximately 6 to 18.

Several reasons, I believe，can account for this phenomenon. First of all, the development of
IT has offered us an easier access to the internet, thus an increasing number of students have
become the regular netizens. Secondly, the internet is tempting with its convenient availability of
massive information compared with the library. As everything is at hand in a few clips, the
majority of students no longer bother to study in library. Thirdly, it must be pointed out that the
internet also provides multiple entertainments extremely appealing to young students——some of
whom, unfortunately, have become online game addicts.

According to the previous discussion，we may safely come to the conclusion that much
attention should be placed on students’ preference for the internet than library, and that if they
could reject the disadvantages of the internet and take advantage of its convenience, they would
spend their college years fruitfully and meaningfully.

学生倾向于互联网而不是图书馆

如图所示，在过去十年间，学生花在图书馆的时间大幅下降，由原来的每周20小时减
少到约12小时，而他们花在网络上的时间则由每周约6小时飙升到18小时左右。

我认为可以从以下几个方面来解释这一现象。首先，信息技术的发展使得人们能够更容
易地接触到网络，因此很多学生已经成为了忠实的网民。其次，相比图书馆来说，网络的诱
人之处在于，它可以方便地获得大量的信息。只需轻点几下鼠标，一切信息就唾手可得，于
是大部分学生就不用费力去图书馆了。第三，必须指出的是，网络也能提供多样的娱乐，对
于年轻学生具有无法抗拒的吸引力。不幸的是，很多学生已经染上了网瘾。

综上所述，我们完全可以得出以下结论：学生青睐网络

，应当引起人们足够的重视。假
如他们能够避免网络的弊端，利用网络的便捷，那么，他们的大学生活就会硕果累累、意义
非凡。

Science and Human Life

Science and technology have brought human beings tremendous benefits. Thanks to the
development of science and technology, we now live comfortably and conveniently; we can eat
fresh vegetables all the year round; we can travel long distance in a short time, etc.

However, science and technology have also brought us a lot of disasters. First, with the
development of medicine, people are now living much longer, which caused the increase of
population. The wastes from factories caused pollution of all kinds. What’s more, some terrorists
are using biological, chemical and unclear weapons to threaten the world peace.

So, it’s urgent that we find ways to solve these problems. But I don’t think we should stop the
development of science and technology. Instead, we should make some rules to regulate people’s
actions. As long as we use science and technology in a proper way, they may bring us more
benefits.

科技与人类生活

科学技术给人类带来了巨大利益。正是因为有了科学技术的发展，我们生活得舒适方便，
常年都能吃到新鲜蔬菜，可以在短时间内去很远的地方。

但是，科学技术也给我们带来了很多灾难。首先，由于医学的发展，人们现在的寿命比
以前长了很多。因此，世界人口不断增加。工厂的废物造成各种污染。而且，一些恐怖分子
正利用生物、化学武器和不明武器来威胁世界和平。

所以我们迫切需要找到一些解决这些问题的办法。但是，我认为我们不能因为这些问题
就阻止科学技术的发展。相反地，我们应当制定一些规章制度来规范人们的行为。只要我们
以恰当的方式来利用科学技术，它们就可能给我们带来更大的利益。

How to Manage Money?

Managing money is vital to university students. As university students live in the ivory tower,
they don，t have a regular job and the majority of them count on the money given by their parents.

Then how to manage money? In the first place, we

must learn to keep accounts and budget
our money. According to a recent survey conducted by Global Times, a high proportion of 80%
university students use different methods to keep accounts, and they always consume more
rationally than others. Moreover, taking a part-time job is helpful for students to manage money as
well. Taking a part-time job can not only help us multiply our earnings but also make us know the
difficulties of earning, which can help us cultivate a positive way to deal with money.


When applying the methods above, you will find yourself proficient and wise in managing
money and you will have a comfortable and cheerful campus life.

如何理财

理财对大学生来说是非常重要的。因为大学生生活在象牙塔中，没有稳定的工作，大
部分人都依靠父母供给来生活。

那么应该如何理财呢？首先，我们必须学会记账和预算开支。据《环球时报》最新调
查显示，高达80%的大学生使用不同的方法来记账，他们比其他人的消费要理智很多。此
外，做兼职也是理财的好帮手。做兼职不仅能帮我们增加收入，而且能让我们知道赚钱的艰

使用上面的方法，你会发现自己是个理财能手，你的校园生活也会变得舒适而愉快。
