Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Reading Classics or Popular Books? following the outline given below. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

1. 书在我们生活中起着重要作用

2. 有些人认为应该读经典著作，有些人则认为应该读畅销书

3. 在我看来……

Reading Classics or Popular Books?

Books are good companions in our lives. Every time we are bored or down, we can always turn to a book at hand, which instantly opens a new world to us, where we can lead different lives and experience various adventures.

People’s view differs with regard to whether to read classics or popular books. Some claim that we should read classics as they offer us an access to the great wisdom of the literature giants at home and abroad. Reading these books enlightens us and makes us think about our lives. In contrast, other people believe that we should read popular books as they are easy to understand and can relieve our pressure from a burdened life in such a hustle and bustle world.

As far as I am concerned, we should read both kinds of books. Classics help us form our values and outlook on life, while popular books make our lives more colorful.

(译文) 读经典著作还是畅销书？

书是我们生活中的好伙伴。每当我们感到无聊和失落时，我们总能向手边的书寻求帮助。它们即刻就为我们展开一个全新的世界，在那里我们可以过各式人生、经历各种冒险。

关于应该读经典著作还是读畅销书，人们的看法各异。有人声称我们应该读经典著作，因为经典著作为我们提供了一个学习国内外文坛巨匠伟大智慧的途径。阅读这些书使我们得到启迪，也促使我们对人生进行思考。相反，另一些人认为我们应当读畅销书，因为畅销书易于理解，能够为我们在这熙熙攘攘的世界里的沉重生活减轻压力。

在我看来，两种书我们都要读。学习经典著作能帮助我们形成价值观和世界观；而畅销书则使我们的生活更多彩。

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled How Should College Students Spend Their Spare Time? You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

How Should College Students Spend Their Spare Time?

College is a place where students arrange their own studies and take part in all kinds of activities as they like. Thus, plenty of time is left at college students’ disposal.

How should college students spend their spare time then? Firstly, it will be very beneficial to brush up a foreign language, so going to an English corner or taking some language courses will be a good way of spending the spare time. Secondly, developing personal interest could also be a good after-school activity. For instance, learning to play some musical instrument or learning painting can bring fun to one’s life and help enlarge one’s circle of friends.

College years are very precious, for we are young enough to pick up new skills quickly and old enough to face many challenges. Therefore, it is very important and meaningful to make good use of the spare time in college.

（译文）大学生应如何利用课余时间?

大学是一个学生自由安排学习和参与各种活动的地方。这样一来，学生就有了许多空闲时间可以自由支配。

大学生该如何利用课余时间？首先，提高外语水平十分有益，因此，去英语角或者选修一些语言课程是利用课余时间的好方法。其次，发展个人兴趣也是很好的课余活动。比如，学习弹奏乐器或绘画，这些都能为生活带来欢乐，并且有助于扩大朋友圈。

大学时代是非常宝贵的，因为我们正青春年少，能够快速学习新技能，也足够成熟以迎接许多挑战。因此，好好利用大学课余时间非常重要并且很有意义。

Topic 3

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay commenting on the remark,“Not to know is bad; not to wish to know is worse.” You can give examples to illustrate your point and then explain how people can develop curiosity. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

On the Importance of Curiosity

The saying that “Not to know is bad; not to wish to know is worse” best illustrates the importance of curiosity, a desire to know, a hunger to explore and a delight to discover. Without curiosity, human beings would never reach the civilization today.

Curiosity motivates us to uncover the truth about nature and life. It takes a curious mind to look beneath the surface and discover new worlds and possibilities. Were it not for curiosity, Newton would never have developed the law of gravitation, nor would the continents of America or Australia be discovered. Being curious allows us to engage in activities that will stretch the boundaries of our mind and naturally broaden our horizons.

Fortunately, curiosity is a habit that can be nurtured and developed. To be more specific, we need to approach the world with a child-like habit of asking questions. With practice, we are sure to transform everyday tasks into enjoyable experiences and lay the ground for future discoveries and opportunities.

(译文) 关于好奇心的重要性

引言“无知是悲哀的，无意求知更可悲”很好地阐述了好奇心的重要性。好奇心是一种求知的欲望、一种探索的渴求以及一种发现的喜悦。如果没有好奇心，人类绝不可能达到今天的文明水平。

好奇心激励我们揭开关于自然和人生的真理，需要一颗好奇的大脑才能透过表象发现新的世界和新的可能。如果不是好奇心，牛顿绝不可能推出万有引力定律，美洲和澳洲大陆也不可能被发现。好奇心使我们积极参与能够扩展我们大脑界限的活动，自然也就扩展了我们的视野。

幸运的是，好奇心是一种可以培养和养成的习惯。具体来说，我们需要带着孩子般爱提问的习惯来接触这个世界。加以练习，我们一定能将日常的任务变成有趣的经历，为未来的发现和机遇打下基础。

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled On Regional Unbalance in Educational Development following the outline given below. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

1.中国沿海和内陆教育不平衡

2.产生教育不平衡的原因

3.提出建议，如何促进教育的均衡发展

On Regional Unbalance in Educational Development

Although education in China has been greatly developed in the past decades, there is a big gap of education qualities between coastal and interior regions.

Why is education in our country so unbalanced? There are two major reasons. From a general perspective, economic condition affects the regional education development. Poor regions can’t afford advanced teaching facilities or attract excellent teachers. Besides, people in those poor areas don’t think education is very important and tend to send their children to work rather than study.

In light of the seriousness of this problem, effective measures should be taken immediately. First of all, it is crucial that our government should allocate more budgets to develop education in those interior regions. Second, it is necessary to greatly publicize the advantages of receiving good education.

(译文) 关于区域教育发展不平衡

虽然在过去的几十年中国的教育得到极大的发展，但是沿海地区和内陆地区的教育质量存在着很大的差距。

为什么我国的教育如此不平衡？主要有两方面的原因。总的来看，经济状况影响地区教育发展。贫困地区买不起先进的教学设备，也吸引不了优秀的教师。除此之外，那些贫困地区的人们不认为教育非常重要，他们倾向于把孩子送去工作而不是读书。

鉴于这个问题的严重性，我们应该立即采取有效措施。首先，政府拨更多的资金用于发展内陆地区的教育

是至关重要的。其次，有必要大力宣传接受良好教育的好处。

Topic 5

Directions: F or this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled On Seizing Opportunity by referring to the saying, “Chance favors the prepared mind. ” You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

On Seizing Opportunity

History has taught us that opportunity is essential to success. Napoleon Bonaparte said “ability is of little account without opportunity.” Many people believe that all men are equal before opportunity, in other words, “every dog has his day”. But reality once and again tells us that chance favors the prepared mind.

It is true that the prepared mind is more likely to seize an opportunity, which perhaps only knocks once. First, he/she is “mentally” prepared like a watchful leopard waiting for its prey. Once the opportunity shows up, he/she can swiftly grasp it. Otherwise, he/she who hesitates is lost. Second, he/she is “physically” prepared like a veteran athlete who trains hard. Once the chance presents itself, he/she is able to seize it.

Since chance is rare and fleeting, anyone who desires success should always be ready to seize the opportunity when it appears. For one thing, he/she should constantly sharpen his/her skills to be “physically” prepared; for another, he/she should have his/her eyes open for opportunity to stay “mentally” prepared.

（译文）论抓住机遇

历史教育我们，机遇对于成功至关重要。拿破仑曾说过：“没有机遇，再有能力也没用。”许多人认为机遇面前人人平等，换句话说，即“凡人皆有得意日。”但是，现实一次又一次地告诉我们，机遇青睐有准备的人。

确实，有准备的人更有可能抓住机遇，有些机遇也许人生就一次。首先，他/她做好了“心理准备”，就像一只警惕的猎豹在等待它的猎物。一旦机遇出现，他/她就能迅速抓住它。否则，犹豫不决，只能落得两手空空。其次，他/她做好了“身体准备”，就像一位经验丰富、训练有素的运动员。一旦机遇降临，他/她有能力抓住。

既然机遇难得、骤然飞逝，任何渴望成功的人都应该时刻准备着，当机遇一旦出现，就能迅速抓住它。一方面，他/她需要不断提升自身技能，以做好“身体准备”；另一方面，他/她需要关注机遇，以做好“心理准备”。Topic 6.

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a letter to a friend, advising him not to give up the Computer Rank Examination following the outline given below. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

你的朋友李明打算放弃计算机等级考试，写信劝说他不要放弃。信中应包括以下内容：

1．希望他再三考虑并说明此次考试的重要性

2．给予鼓励，并表示愿意提供帮助

A Letter to A Friend

Dear Li Ming,

How are you doing? I heard you have been confronted with a lot of difficulties in your computer study lately and you are thinking about giving up the Computer Rank Examination next month.

I hope you can give it a second thought. This exam is very important for us because the certificate is highly valued by most of the employers in job recruitment. Besides, later in our jobs, it is inevitable to use some basic computer skills. It is normal to have barriers in the road of learning. But they are not impossible to overcome as long as you keep trying.

There is still one month left. Don’t give up! I believe you have the ability and courage to catch up and pass the exam at last. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to tell me. I’m always there supporting you.

Yours,

Xiaogang

(译文) 写给朋友的信

亲爱的李明：

你过得好吗？我听说你最近在电脑学习过程中碰到了很多困难，并且正在考虑放弃下个月的计算机等级考试。

我希望你再考虑一下。这个考试对我们非常重要，因为大部分的雇主在招聘中非常重视这个证书。此外，在我们以后的工作中，不可避免地需要使用一些基本的计算机技能。在学习的道路上碰到困难是正常的，但是只要你坚持尝试，这些拦阻并非不可跨越的。

现在距离考试还剩一个月时间，不要放弃！我相信你有能力和勇气赶上来，并且最终通过考试。如果你有任何问题，请立刻告诉我。我永远支持你。

你的朋友

Topic 7

Directions：For this part, you’re allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay. You should start your essay with a brief description of the picture and then express your views on the importance of reading literature. You should

write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

(审题：本题的漫画反映的是一个社会现象。在漫画中，老师把一本厚厚的书交给学生，并

对他说：“Just think of it as if you’re reading a long text-message.”结合题目中的写作指令

(express your views on the importance of reading literature)，考生可以得出这幅漫画所反映的社

会现象：随着新的电子媒体的出现，文学阅读日渐式微。需要提醒考生的是，漫画中的text-

message象征着当代层出不穷的新媒体，这里并不需要对其做过于狭隘的理解。)

From the cartoon given above, we can observe that there is a teacher and a student standing in the classroom. When receiving a literature book given by her teacher, the little girl seems to be

quite nervous and unwilling. Having observed her student’s response, the teacher tells her that

“Just think of it as if you are reading a long text-message.”

The cartoon aims at informing us of the phenomenon that quite a few students or youngsters are reluctant to read literature nowadays. With the Internet and electronic communication tools

such as micro blogs, mobile phones and QQ becoming increasingly widespread, quite a few

people are more used to reading short context. They hold that, compared with long contents such

as literature, these shor t ones are more convenient and timesaving. What’s more, many students

refuse to read literature because they believe that literature is boring and of little use in modern

society.

However, no one can disclaim the importance of reading literature. It enables people to enrich their knowledge and expand their horizons. Moreover, reading literature also inspires

people to think critically and independently. Last but not least, by spending time in reading

literature, we can also develop and perfect human personality such as being patient and optimistic.

Hence, why not just get out of the reality temporarily and spend some time on literature ?

(译文)

如图所示，我们可以观察到有一位老师和一个学生正站在教室里。当这个女学生收到老师给的文学书本的时候，她显得紧张而又不情愿。观察到女学生这种反应后，老师告诉她：

“你只要把它想成是正在读一条很长的短信就可以了。”

这幅漫画告诉我们一个现象，那就是，相当多的学生，或者是年轻人如今都不太乐意阅读文学作品。随着诸如微博、手机和QQ这样的互联网或电子通讯工具变得越来越普及，相

当多的人更加适应于阅读短小的信息内容。他们认为，比起文学这样的长篇内容，这些短小

内容更加方便和省时。再者，相当多的学生拒绝阅读文学作品是因为他们认为文学作品非常

枯燥，并且在现代社会没有什么用处。

然而，我们不能否认阅读文学作品的重要性。它能使我们丰富知识，拓宽视野。而且，阅读文学作品可以激发我们批判性地、独立性地思考问题。最后，通过花时间在阅读文学作

品上，我们也可以发展和完善我们的人格，比如变得有耐心、乐观。因此，我们为什么不可

以暂时的远离现实而花一些时间在文学上呢？

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Learning Through Theory or Practice? following the outline given below. You should write at least 120 words but

no more than 180 words.

1.有人认为应以理论作为学习渠道，有人则认为应以实践为渠道

2. 理论与实践作为学习渠道各自的优点是……

3. 在我看来……

Learning Through Theory or Practice?

Nowadays there has been a heated discussion about the best learning method. Some people argue that priority should be given to studying theories, while others believe that practice is the best way of learning.

On the one hand, previous experience and authoritative views in textbooks are regarded as reliable, thorough and systematic knowledge which prevents us from making mistakes. On the other hand, practice provides a down-to-earth learning experience. Such a method enables people to get some valuable practical first-hand information which they will never find from textbooks.

From my point of view, the combination of the two works out the best way. In fact, I believe acquiring theories

in books and putting them into practice is the most efficient learning method.

（译文）应以理论还是实践作为学习渠道？

如今，何为最佳的学习方式已经成为了热点话题。有些人认为应该优先学习理论知识，另一些人则认为实践才是最佳的学习方法。

从一方面来看，课本中有许多前人的经验与权威的观点，人们认为这些知识可靠、全面、系统，可以使我们避免犯错。从另一方面来看，实践为我们提供了一种切实可行的学习体验。这种方式使人们有机会获得珍贵又实用的第一手信息，这些信息在课本上是找不到的。

在我看来，结合两者才是最佳的学习方式。事实上，我认为从书本中获得知识，并运用到实践中去，才是最有效的学习方式。

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled On the Importance of Teamwor k following the outline given below. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

1.在现代社会，人们都很强调团队合作

2.团队合作如此重要的原因是……

3.我认为应如何加强团队合作

On the Importance of Teamwork

Teamwork, as the mainstream way of doing business, cannot be emphasized more in the modern world. There are programs designed to improve one’s teamwork ability; team spirit is deeply engraved in the mind of each social man.

Why does teamwork become so important? Two major reasons are listed as follows. To start with, only through effective teamwork can we achieve success. Behind each business miracle or each successful man, there is a big team supporting and contributing. The huge success of Apple products should be attributed to teamwork rather than the personal accomplishment of Steve Jobs. The importance of teamwork is not only reflected on achieving success, but also on the issue of survival. In modern society, we know very well that no one can survive by himself. Every loaf of bread, every article of clothes, every house or apartment is the product of cooperative efforts.

To sum up, teamwork is such an essential ability that we college students should seize every chance to develop. At least , do not keep silent during group discussion in class next time.

（译文）关于团队合作的重要性

在现代社会中，人们非常强调团队合作。团队合作成为主流的做事方式。改善团队合作能力的项目随处可见；团队精神深深铭刻在每个社会人的心中。

为什么团队合作变得如此重要？两点主要原因罗列如下。首先，只有通过有效的团队合作，我们才能取得成功。在每个商业奇迹或者成功人士背后，都有一个支持并为之贡献的大团队。苹果产品的成功应该归功于团队合作而非史蒂夫?乔布斯个人。团队合作的重要性不仅体现在取得成功方面，而且体现在生存问题上。在现代社会，我们都清楚地知道没有人可以依靠自己而生存。每片面包﹑每件衣服﹑每栋房子或者每套公寓都是人们合作的产物。

总而言之，团队合作是一项极其关键的能力。我们大学生应抓住每个机会来锻炼团队合作能力。至少，在下次课堂小组讨论环节不要再沉默不语了。

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled On More Attention Be Paid to English than Chinese following the outline given below. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

1.在中国，英语明显比中文更受重视

2.人们对这一失衡现象各持己见

3.我的观点是……

On More Attention Be Paid to English than Chinese

In China, English has clearly gained much more attention than Chinese, which is rare in other countries in the world. Anything with connection, even a remote one, to English is bound to flourish, such as bilingual summer camp.

This phenomenon has been in the spotlight for some time. Some people argue that the unbalanced situation will put China’s traditional culture in danger since language is the medium of culture. However, according to a different view, more emphasis put on English is not necessarily a bad sign. To those who hold this view, English is exactly what we need to know and learn from western countries, which is crucial to China’s rise.

From my mind’s view, recognizing the importance of English should not hinder us from pursuing more understanding of our own language and culture. Therefore, we should devote as much time and energy to Chinese as to English.

（译文）关于英语比中文更受重视

在中国，英语明显比中文更受重视。这种现象在世界上其他国家非常少见。任何与英语有关的事物，即便只有一点点关系，都会兴旺发达，例如双语夏令营。

这一现象已被关注了一段时间。部分人认为这种不平衡的状况将使得中国的传统文化堪忧，因为语言是文化的媒介。然而，另有观点认为重视英语不一定是坏现象。在此此种观点的人看来，英语正是中国了解和学习西方国家所需的，这对中国崛起至关重要。

在我看来，认识到英语的重要性不应阻碍我们增加对本国语言和文化的了解。因此。我们应该在中文上投入跟英语同样的时间和精力。

2.减少这类损失的方法包括……

3.作为一名大学生，我能做什么

How to Limit the Damage Caused by Natural Disasters?

Due to either cyclical changes or human interventions, there has been an increase in natural disasters in recent years. Earthquakes, tsunamis and hurricanes have taken numerous lives throughout the world.

What can we do to prevent damage and minimize loss? First and foremost, people should by all means take measures to protect the environment. Methods such as recycling and using renewable energy should be advocated to help us save resources. Secondly, advanced technologies in disaster prediction are of great importance. Precise forecast ahead of time is crucial for people to survive. So the government should pay more attention to forecasting technology and allocate more funds to support related research and development programs.

As a university student, I will work as a volunteer to help raise the public’s environmental protection awareness. More importantly, I would like to teach survival skills during disasters to the people in my university and community. （译文）如何减少自然灾害带来的损害？

由于周期变化，或是人为干预，近年来自然灾害不断增多。全世界有很多人死于地震、海啸和飓风。

为了避免伤害并把损失减到最小，我们能做些什么？首先，人们一定要采取措施保护环境。应当倡导回收利用与使用可再生能源，来帮助我们节约资源。其次，灾难预测中使用先进的科技十分重要。事先精准的预报对于人们逃生而言十分关键。因此，政府应当更加重视预报技术，拔出更多资金来支持相关的研发项目。

作为一名大学生。我将会作为志愿者，帮助提高公众的环保意识。更重要的是，我想要在我的学校和社区中，教人们灾难时的求生技能。

1.人类在不断地探索外太空

2.一些人认为探索外太空很有意义，一些人认为没有意义

3.我的观点是……

My View on Outer Space Exploration

Since the first landing on the moon, men have never lost their enthusiasm for outer space exploration. Billions of funds have been spent , quite some lives have been sacrificed, and meanwhile secrets of the universe have been gradually discovered, However, people’s view on outer space exploration differs greatly.

Some people think it is meaningless to allocate large budget to study such issues as whether there are other intelligent beings in outer space. In contrast, others argue that it is worthwhile to invest time and money into the scientific research of outer space because it can help us understand the universe better.

From my perspective, it is necessary to continue to exploring outer space because what we learn in outer space can influence the future of the earth. The more we know about the universe, the better we can understand our position as human beings in this planet where we live and thus live harmoniously with nature.

（译文）我对探索外太空的看法

自从第一次登上月球，人类从未失去过探索外太空的热情。数以亿计的资金已投入其中，一些人的生命也已为此牺牲，同时宇宙的秘密已逐渐地被发现。然而，人们对于探索外太空的看法大不相同。

一些人认为拨出大量预算来研究“外太空有没有智能生命”是没有意义的。相反，另外一些人争辩说向外太空的科研投入时间和金钱是值得的，因为这可以帮助我们更好地认识宇宙。

在我看来，有必要继续探索外太空，因为我们在外太空中学到的东西会影响地球的未来。我们对宇宙认识越多，就越能理解我们作为人类在我们生活的星球上的位置，从而能与自然和谐相处。

2.分析亚健康现象出现的原因

3.摆脱亚健康，应该怎么做

On Sub-health Condition

Experts say that quite a number of people who are 18 to 45 years old are under sub-health condition.They are not suffering from obvious diseases but their physical functions are in a weak state.

Why are these people, who are in their golden ages, in sub-health condition? First, people aged between 18 and 45 are so busy with their study or work that they can’t spare enough time for physical exercise. Second, air pollution and water pollution affect our lives so badly that we could hardly maintain a good health.

In order to get rid of sub-health, it is of great importance that we do outdoor exercise frequently to remove weariness and have our body refreshed. Besides , governments should try harder to protect the environment so that people have fresher air to breathe and cleaner water to drink.

（译文）关于亚健康状况

专家指出许多18 到45 岁的人处于亚健康状况。他们没有患明显的疾病，但身体功能却处于虚弱状态。

为什么这些黄金年龄段的人处于亚健康状态呢？首先，18至45 岁的人学习或工作过于忙碌，以至于不能抽出足够时间来锻炼身体。此外，大气污染和水污染严重影响我们的生活，以致我们很难保持健康。

为了摆脱亚健康，经常进行户外运动非常重要，这样我们可以去除疲惫，身体也能恢复活力。除此之外，政府应更加努力保护环境，以便人们能呼吸更清新的空气、饮用更干净的水。

1.大部分学校都要求学生穿着校服

2.人们对此的看法不一

3.你的看法是……

Do Students Need to Wear School Uniforms?

It is not new to see students wearing school uniforms. In fact, most schools in China, both public and private, require their students to wear school uniforms.

People’s opinions are divided on this issue. Some people hold that wearing school uniforms is beneficial to students in that they cannot judge their peers by the clothes they wear. Therefore, students, no matter from poor or rich families, are equal in this regard. In contrast, others think that wearing school uniforms has a harmful impact on students’ individuality, which certainly does no good to their development.

Taking different opinions into account, I believe school uniform is an indispensable part of school life due to its many merits, but we should not put too much emphasis on it.

（译文）学生需要穿校服吗？

学生穿校服不是什么新鲜事。事实上，中国大多数的学校，不论公立还是私立，都要求学生穿校服。

人们对此的看法各异。一些人认为穿校服对学生有利，因为学生不能以服饰取人。家庭贫穷的孩子和富裕家庭的孩子能够在这一点上处于同等地位。但是，其他人认为穿校服有碍学生个性的发展，这对孩子的成长当然是无益的。

综合考虑两种不同的观点，我认为校服是校园生活不可或缺的一部分，益处良多，但是我们也不应该过分强调校服的作用。

A Classmate Who Has Influenced Me Most in College

Once upon a time, I was not so confident about my study and was subject to being pessimistic when confronted with frustrations. However, I found myself gradually changing as Tom, one of my classmates in college, strived to encourage me. I really appreciate his help.

I used not to be good at English; however, whenever I was confused about the teacher’s explanation, he always interpreted it to me in an explicit way. Gradually, I found English not so difficult and made progress day by day. In addition, it was Tom who kept guiding me how to live through all kinds of setbacks and frustrations in life. I’ll never forget the very day when I failed my speech contest and was overwhelmed and ashamed. Tom told me that nobody can defeat a person if he is determined to stand up to every failure. With his encouragement, I regained confidence in learning, realizing that optimism was always the key to success.

Thanks to Tom, I eventually learned the significance of self-confidence and optimism. They not only serve as indispensable characteristics of personality but also will benefit people all his life.

(译文) 对我影响最大的大学同学

我曾对自己的学习并不那么自信，而且遇到挫折时就容易悲观。然而，当我的一个大学同学汤姆竭尽全力鼓励我的时候，我发现自己渐渐地有所改变。我非常感激他对我的帮助。

以前我的英语不好，然而每当我对老师的讲解感到迷惑不解时，汤姆总是用清晰明了的方式给我解释。渐渐地，我发现英语并没那么难，并一天天地取得进步。不仅如此，汤姆还一直引导我如何应对生活中各式各样的挫折和失败。我永远也忘不了我演讲比赛失败那一天，我当时不知所措，觉得很羞愧。汤姆告诉我，没有谁能打败一个在每一次失败面前都坚定地站起来的人。在他的鼓励下，我重拾了学习的信心，认识到乐观常常是成功的关键。

多亏汤姆，我最终认识到了自信和乐观的重要性。它们不仅是人们必备的品格，而且还将使人终身受益。常用写作谚语：

1.Where there is a will, there is a way. 有志者，事竟成。All that glitters is not gold. 闪光的不一定都是金子。

2.No pains, no gains. 没有付出就没有收获。

3.Success belongs to the persevering. 坚持就是胜利。

4.Practice makes perfect. 熟能生巧。

5. A good medicine tastes bitter. 良药苦口。

6.When in Rome, do as the Romans do. 入乡随俗。

大学英语四级作文5篇范文

1. The Advantages and Disadvantages of Private Tutoring Private tutoring is “in”. A recent investigation shows that about 80 percent of pupils have private tutors. While private tutoring has both advantages and disadvantages, I feel that we should give more thoughts to its negative effects. Such a popular practice clearly indicates that people are attaching greater importance to education. Many parents either missed the chance of obtaining a good education themselves or have been too busy with their own business. When their children meet with difficulties in study, they are helpless. Private tutoring seems to be the only solution. As private tutoring is usually given on the one-to-one basis, the teacher knows the strong points as well as the weak points of the pupil; and teaching is, in most cases, directly to the point. Private tutoring benefits a lot of pupils, indeed. While on the other hand, private tutoring has its own disadvantages. For one thing, it takes up so much of the pupil’s time that they can hardly find enough time for rest or entertainment, which is essential for kids’ physical and mental health. Besides, some teachers, busy “shuttling” from one family to another, tend to neglect their regular teaching duties. What is more, some teachers are eager to help pupils do well on the test, offering the so-called tips for test-taking instead of helping them acquire

四级写作范文必背经典 大学英语四级范文背诵(01) COLLEGE STUDENTS SHOULD ATTEND PHYSICAL EXERCISE Physical exercise is a necessary part of college life. However, still some college students do not like to attend sports activities, they think those activities waste their time and influence their study. Indeed, it is very unwise for college students to keep distance from physical exercise because physical exercise is not harmful but good to them. College students can benefit a lot from physical exercise. First of all, attending physical sports can help students build a strong body, and keep abounding energy. Moreover, physical exercise is an effective way to relief pressure and keep a pleasant move. Besides, by attending physical activities, students can have chances to contact and communicate with others which can help them improve their social skills.

You should start your essay with a brief description of the picture and then give your comments. Write your essay on Answer Sheet 1. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words. 【参考范文】 Grabbing red envelopes has been hogging the limelight in our daily life since the 2016 Spring Festival. At no point is it clearer that this activity has endowed our vapid life with the flavor of high-tech and fun, especially giving traditions typical of festive periods, such as the Chinese New Year and Chinese Valentine’s Day, a facelift. However, some people may be trapped in a situation where they put the cart before the horse. Disappointedly, what some people do on festivals is not to communicate with their relatives and friends but to hold their cell phones and fix their eyes on the screen all day long, just in order to grab red envelops. For my part, what really matters is the relationship instead of the money. Essentially speaking, gifting red envelopes is beyond reproach. Only in a rational way shall we not be reduced to slaves of materialism or hijacked by the high technology. Festivals offer precious opportunities for us to send good wishes to our beloved ones and what we should do is to cherish these chances rather than to ignore the essential connotation of the festivals. Anyhow, kinship, friendship and other relationships are above anything and we ought to make every endeavor lest the profound cultural atmosphere of traditional festivals should decline. 【参考译文】 从2016年的春节起，抢红包在我们的日常生活中变得越来越流行。俨然，抢红包这种现象往我们比较乏味的日常生活中添加了些许高科技的元素和乐趣，尤其使得那些传统节假日（比如说春节和七夕节，等等）的习俗变得焕然一新。 但是，有些人似乎有点本末倒置了。令人失望的是，有些人在节假日整天拿着手机，盯着屏幕不放，为的是能抢到红包，却不和家人、亲戚朋友交流。在我看来，真正重要的是人与人之间的那份感情而不是金钱。从本质上来说，发红包无可厚非。但是只有理性的做法才会让我们能免于成为物质的奴隶并且不被所谓的高科技所绑架。

Some are in favor of the rating system, They hold that since students attend t he teachers’ classes every day, they should have their opinion about their teachers’ effectiveness. Others, on the contrary, are strongly against it. They believe that there is much more to teaching than what is shown on students’ rating forms. Students sh ould not be expected to judge whether the materials they use are up to date or how well the teacher knows about the subject. These judgments require professional knowledge, which is best left for the teachers’ colleagues. I think students’ rating of their teachers is necessary, but it should be conducted in a way that can really shed meaningful light on teachers’ performance. Instead of rating the teachers’ knowledge on the subject, students should be asked to estimate what they have learned in a course, an d to report on such things as a teacher’s ability to communicate with students, his or her relationship with students, and his or her ability to arouse students’ interest in the subject. 点评：越来越多的高校采取让学生给老师打分的形式来了解教学反馈，并以此作为促进教学质量的有效手段。对此做法，管理部门及教学双方褒贬不一，看法迥异。本范例题为校园生活热议话题，值得关注。

2018年12月英语四级作文真题及范文【三套全】

2018年12月英语四级作文真题及范文【三套全】Directions：For this part，you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the challenges of starting a career after graduation. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words. Currently，whether to start a career after graduation has become a hot topic among people，especially among the young, and heated debates are right on their way. People's opinions about this issue vary from person to person. I consider that starting our own business tends to pose a considerable number of threats to our future. First and foremost, compared with graduate education, our knowledge will be limited and our horizons will be narrowed if we choose to take a position after graduation due to the fact that possessing a bachelor’s degree is to maintain one’s competitiveness. In addition, applying for a job is likely to take up our precious time which can be used for more valuable activities. Taking all these factors into consideration, we naturally come to the conclusion that we should be prudent and cautious when we face various options after graduation. Directions：For this part，you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the challenges of living in a big city. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words. Currently，whether to live in a big city has become a hot topic among people，especially among the young, and heated debates are right on their way. People's opinions about this issue vary from person to person. I consider that living in a big city tends to pose a considerable number of threats to our future. First and foremost, since the phenomenon of left-behind children has arisen as one of the most fearful social situations, parents are likely to have less family time with their children, which is detrimental to fostering harmonious families. In addition, busy city life is also negative for our mental health. The fierce competition that exists everywhere in big cities is destructive to our relationship with our colleagues, neighbors, and even friends, resulting in our isolation and loneliness. Taking all these factors into consideration, I solidly consider that we should be prudent and cautious when we consider about the question of whether we should live in big cities.
