对比论述型作文

 

对比论述型作文多为提纲式作文,议论文题材。这类作文是以考生面临的两种选择为主题,最终以考生本人的选择和态度归结全文。如果考生对选择的态度是明确的,即二者选其一,那么考生分别阐述两种不同的观点的时候应有自己的主观倾向性。比如:对赞成事物的优点要详写,缺点要略写;对反对的事物则反之,从而使自己的论点得以实现。如果考生的态度是不明确的,即两者各有利弊,那么就不应该完全肯定某一个事物,也不应该彻底否认另一个事物。如果个人看法与文章前面列举的某种观点相同或相似并且需要论述理由时,考生要避免简单地重复前面提到的论据。
这类题型的基本模式是:
第一部分:引言。阐述标题中涉及的现象并且提出问题。
第二部分:第一种选择。第一种选择及其理由或者优缺点;(这一部分除了可以独立成段外,也可以与第一部分合为一段,或是与第三部分合为一段。
第三部分:第二种选择。可以考虑用对照关联词引出第二种选择及其理由或者优缺点。
第四部分:考生自己的选择。综合前面的分析,表明自己的态度或做法,并且简述选择的理由。

Direction: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled A Good Major or a Good University. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below:
1. 学生在报考大学时面临两种选择—— 选好专业还是好大学。有人认为应该选择好专业
2. 也有人认为应该选择一所好大学
3. 我的看法

范文一(用模板一改写)
                     

 A Good Major or a Good University
    When asked to choose between a good major or a good university before college enrollment, people have different opinions. Many people believe that a good university means great advantage for job application after graduation. On the one hand, a good university has good reputations, which adds credits for its graduates. On the other hand, a good university has all sorts of channels to help graduates get a good job. All these point to the indispensability of a good university.
     However, others claim that a good major is all that counts. As far as they are concerned, excellent teaching staff of a good major makes sure that the student are sufficiently trained in the chosen field. Moreover, if one chooses a major that is most needed by the society, not only will he/she find a job easily, but they will contribute much to the society.
     As for me, such choice should be made according to our academic interest. Because whether a major or a university is good depends on how we look at it. If certain major or university fits our interest, it will be considered good. What’s more, interest is the best teacher, so a choice of our own interest can help us overcome difficulties in the study. Therefore, let our interest decide for us.

范文二
A Good Major or a Good University
  There is no consensus of opinion among people as to the choice between a good major or a good university before college enrollment. Some people who are in favor of the idea of having a good major hold that it can ensure one’s future success. For one thing, a good major, even in a common university, can help its students become rare talents, thus gaining in advantages for future competition. For another, a good major boasts various exclusive learning recourses which makes it highly possible for students to further their education. Therefore, a good major is more important.
However, those who insist on choosing a good university argue that graduates from famous universities are popular in talent market. In their opinions, a good university can give students confidence, which is very helpful in their study and future work. In addition, a good university has a set of educating system, incomparable with common university. Thus it is wiser to choose a good university.
In my viewpoint, a good university should be my only choice. If there is a chance, who doesn’t want to enter Bejing or Qinghua, Harvard or Yale? That is to say, a good university is worthy of every effort. In a word, a good university is of great importance in one’s future development.
 

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled The Pros and Cons of Dormitory Life. You should write at least 120 works following the outline given below:
1. 很多人认为学校应该要求大学生住在宿舍内,赞成理由是…
2. 很多人认为学校不应该强制要求大学生住宿舍,理由是…

范文一:
The Pros and Cons of Dormitory Life(重要)
      When it comes to whether university authorities should require students to live in dormitory, people’s opinions differ. Many people believe that there are great advantages of dormitory life. For one thing, students have the chance of enjoying the friendship of their roommates. This can be the most precious memory they have later in life. For another thing, university dormitories do not cost much, while living off campus can be very expensive. Let alone the issue of security.
     Some people, however, take a different attitude. They regard dormitory as an undesirable place. In their view, since 4 to 8 people live in one dormitory, there is not enough privacy. Furthermore, dormitory is troublesome because it is very likely that one could have clashes with his dorm mates.
     As far as I am concerned, students benefit greatly from dormitory life. On one hand, dormitory life provides precious lessons on how to communicate with others. On the other hand, students do not feel lonely. There are always people of the same age around. And when they have trouble, there are always helping hands in the dormitory. So why should students live off campus while there is a good life right in here?


范文二:
The Pros and Cons of Dormitory Life

  There is a heated debate over whether students should be required to live in dormitory. It is commonly accepted that dormitory life is a very important part of college life, so students should live in dormitory. In contrast, others think that students have the right to choose other places for accommodation.
  Those who hold the first opinion suggest that dormitory life is colorful and interesting. In their view, when young people live in one dormitory, they tend to create and enjoy a culture of their own. However, others think dormitory life can be annoying. They argue that dormitory is always crowded and one can hardly feel convenient and comfortable.
  Considering one after another, I stand on the side of the first group. First of all, I am interested in living with students from different places so that I can contact with special cultures. Furthermore, I can learn how to get along with other people from dormitory life. Thirdly, I like making friends and dormitory life gives me such chance. Therefore, I think dormitory life is worthy of living.

 Directions: for this part, you are allowed 30minuttes to write a composition on the topic Marks or Abilities? You should write at least 120 words and base your composition on the outline below.
1. 在大学,一些学生认为学习成绩是最重要的
2. 在大学,一些学生认为培养个人的能力是最重要的
3. 你的看法

范文一(套用对比论述型模板一):
Mark or Abilities?

  When it comes to the task of college students, students’ opinions differ. Many students believe that marks are very important. For one thing, they think that their primary task is to study and learn from teachers and textbooks. For another, they seldom take part in other activities, for they are afraid that those activities will affect their study.
  Some students, however, take a different attitude. They regard it is more important to develop one’s own practical ability. In their views, college students should not learn from the textbook knowledge, they should also learn from outside the textbook. Furthermore, one’s own practical ability is of primary importance.
  As far as I am concerned, we should first study hard, then try to develop our abilities at the same time. On the one hand, study is our primary task. On the other hand, we shouldn’t neglect our own practical abilities, for when we enter the society, we need various abilities. So the sound foundation of knowledge along with practical abilities is essential for us to be useful for the society.

 Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Electronic Dictionaries Are not Good. You should write at least 120 works following the outline given below.
1. 很多学生喜欢使用电子词典
2. 使用电子词典的缺点
3. 正确使用词典学习进步会大得多

Electronic Dictionaries Are not Good
There is a heated debate over electronic dictionaries. It is commonly accepted that using the electronic dictionaries has many advantages. In contrast, others think using electronic dictionaries has more disadvantages.
  Those who hold the first opinion suggest that it is more convenient to press some keys on the machine. In their views, they should catch up with the new development of the science and technology. However, others think electronic dictionaries are not good. They argue that constant use of such electronic device may cause side effects.
Considering one after another, I stand on the side of the latter. First of all, electronic dictionaries do not contain as much information as a qualified dictionary compiled by authorities of the field. Furthermore, some explanations in them are so simple that they cam certainly cause misunderstanding. Thirdly, a lazy attitude towards language learning is always most inefficient in the long run. Therefore, a learner should have a good dictionary on hand and treat the electronic dictionary as a makeshift.

4) Some changes, such as those in earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, result from the movement of plates along the weaknesses in the earth’s crust, but many others have much to do with man’s activities. 5) In the first place, man’s mindless and excessive exploitation of natural resources has done a lasting damage to the ecosystem, only to invite more floods, landslides and mud-rock flows. 6) The rare flood to which China was subjected in 1998 is typical of the evil seeds man had sowed for himself. 7) In the second, in order to feed their more and larger families, people from all over the world have had to overwork their farming land as well as their grassland, which in turn has accelerated the desertification of the land on which they have been relying for existence. 8) In the third, man’s blind application of scientific findings has caused unfavorable and permanent changes in the global living environment. 9) Among these changes are the depletion of ozone layer, the worsening of greenhouse effect, the recurrence of hurricanes and the extinction of more species.

   4) A closer analysis of the phenomenon can find that three main factors are well worth our concern.  5) In the first place, it is the product of students’ seeking after individuality and novelty, for which the college campus offers an ideal climate. 6) In the second, it is seen, among the students, as an ideal way of freeing themselves from stress for the time being, since most college students, single child of each family, are subjected to the unprecedented pressures from all sides although they enjoy the abundance of material wealth. 7) And above all, it is an inevitable result of more and more exchanges between Western and Eastern cultures. 8) While the Chinese watch their children thirst for the joy derived from foreign festivals, in fact, the Americans are discussing whether or not to list the Chinese Spring Festival among their official holidays.

9) The effects of this change on our college life are positive. 10) On the one hand, it has created more chances for students to gain a better insight into other cultures. 11) On the other, it has enriched the college life, thus making the campus a more pleasant place to live on. 12) With more and more health and color added to the trend, I firmly believe, it will certainly bring more benefits to our campus life in the time to come.

实战与点评

Good Health

1 Importance of good health 2 Ways to keep fit 3 My own practice

这样的作文的要求句就可以扩展成主题句。扩展后三段的主题句分别为:

It is very important to have good health. (将名词importance变成形容词important)

There are four ways to keep fit for me.(there be句型)

My own practices are the following.(采用原词)

三、条理

  保证不跑题是写作当中第一重要任务,第二个重要任务就是条理清楚。对于议论文来说,正反面要清楚。对于说明文来说,123条要清楚,对于描述文要来,谁干什么要清楚。就拿上例Good Health来说,第一段保持正反面要清楚就应这样写:主题句(It is very important to have good health.,正面(With good health, we can...,反面(Without good health, we can do nothing. We can't do...)

第二段应当这样写:主题句(There are four ways to keep fit. 从几方面说明: Firstly, we should have our breakfast in the morning. Second, we should have a nap at noon. Third, sports exercises are necessary in the afternoon. And fourth, we could have a pleasant feeling in the evening by listening to the music....

 为了使文章更具关于条理性,我们可以用first(ly),second(ly),third(ly)等副词,他们可以使文章的条理性十分突出。作文是主观性题,要想得高分我们必须把评卷老师考虑进去。评卷老师的时间很短(每份卷子的作文只有一两分钟就要阅完),所以我们在列条条时最好不用:To begin with, ... After that,... And then,... The next,... The following,... At last ...。因为用这样的词语不利于阅卷老师看出你作文的条理性。

 第三段应当这样写:主题句(My own practices are the following.)具体情况(主语为第一人称代词I,与第二段呼应) In the morning, I have my breakfast . At noon, I have a nap. And in the afternoon, I always play football. In the evening, I usually listen to the classic music.

 综上所述,如果我们按以上几节的方法去做,就可以保证及格以上分数。

四、 十二句作文法

 在作文的评分标准中字数也是一个要求。四、六级的作文要求是要写出120-150字。对于这样的要求考生不必怕写不够。我们知道,四、六级作文大都是三段式。我们算一下,如果我们在每一段中写上四句话,即主题句加两三句扩展句和一个结论句就可以了。这样全篇在十二句左右。每一句十多个词,这样就是120-150字。同时,我们也提醒大家,不能写得太多,写得多容易跑题。在写作时,我们要横向写作,即写某一问题的横段面。例如,上面讲到健康的重要性时,我们只写四句就可以了。第一句主题句,第二句从正面论述,第三句从反面论述,第四句为结论句。但有的同学在写的时候说健康非常重要,然后就写吃波莱非常重要,因为波菜含有丰富的铁,铁对人是非常重要的,因为...。这样的作文的基本模式是A-B B-C C-D D-E以此类推。这就叫流水账,没有中心。我们写作时要根据横段面去写,而不要写成流水账。避免写成流水账的方法是不要就前一句中的一个非重点词再进行描述。而要对主题句从横段面去写,写完一个横段面就不要再对这一横段面进行阐述了,应当去写别一个横段面。

  如果我们感觉字数不够,就在每一句或某些句子上添加些词词就行了。例如我们感觉上边第二段不够长,就可以这样来加词:

主题句There are four ways to keep fit.- There are four or more ways to keep fit for everyone of us. 从几方面说明: Firstly, we should have our breakfast in the morning.- Firstly, we should have our breakfast, such as milk, eggs, bread and so on, in the morning. Second, we should have a nap at noon.- Secondly, we should have a short nap, even 30 minutes, at noon. Third, sports exercises are necessary in the afternoon. - Thirdly, sports exercises are necessary for everyone and we can do some sports exercises in the afternoon. And fourth, we could have a pleasant feeling in the evening by listening to music. - And fourthly, we could have a pleasant feeling in the evening by listening to both popular and classic music. 

 这样一来,我们只要保持本句的主题不变加添一些次要词就能达到字数的规定标准。

Will E-books Replace Traditional Books?

  1. 随着信息技术的发展,电子图书越来越多

  2. 有人认为电子图书会取代传统图书,理由是……

  3. 我的看法

  [参考范文]

  Will e-books replace traditional books?

  A new era has come. With the mass production of electronic devices and application of new technologies, mankind has entered an “e” age. Nowadays, we have e-mails, e-tickets, e-tests, and e-books, and consequently, paper-based materials gradually vanish. Nowadays, e-books become extremely popular among youngsters, while traditional ones seem suffer a great loss of their readers.

  For some people, electronic and internet based books are convenient and accessible. Environmentalists even advocate the benefit of e-books on the ground of forest protection. E-books lovers even assert that traditional books will disappear in the near future. I have been a book worm for a long time. For me, reading experience is unique and rewarding. Nothing can be more thought-provoking than thumbing through a book bought years ago under a table lamp in a dark night. As to note-taking, scanning and skimming, and portability, traditional books have advantages. Just as the invention of camera didn't put an end to the history of painting, traditional books are, and will still be, an intimate friend of readers.

  范文二:

  With the development of the information technology, electric books e-books have attracted the attention from all our society. Wherever we go, we can see them, such as in the libraries, in the classroom as well as on the Internet. Just some experts predicted in a rectent TV interview, e-books would possibly dominate the reading the next few decades. Some people claim that the e-books will substitute the traditional ones. For one thing, the e-books can not only bring them great amount of convenience, but also free them from going to the bookstores to selecting traditional books. For another, e-books save them lots of space as well as money. They can just put them in computers and take them while traveling. However, traditional books are too heavy and bulk for us to carry. From my perspective, I firmly believe the e-books can not take the traditional books' place totally. They will unquestionably co-exist for a long period.

  Although the e-books offer us lots of favorable consequences, the traditional books can provide us opportunities to take note on them and to be easy for collection. Therefore, the e-books and the traditional books are preferable to different people, and both of them can bring us benefits.

Digital Age 数字化时代

  1、如今数字化产品得到越来越广泛的使用,例如

  2、数字化产品的使用对人工作、学习、生活产生的影响

  要求150个词

范文1

Life is becoming more digital and the digital is becoming more alive. Have you ever noticed that you were surrounded by all kinds of digital products? Digital camera, digital computer, digital television, and so on. Because of these stuff, great changes have taken place in our modern life.

  Firstly, with the development of digital products, TV, film and music go on-line and mobile. Our life are becoming more and more colorful. Secondly, the growth of peer to peer digital media means that people can generate and transact digital content and services over global networks. Nowadays, information is being unleashed and re-shuffled. And everything is becoming increasingly more connected. This is both very exciting and a bit unnerving. At last, the digital age has renewed our interest in friendship which means there is also an opportunity to deepen our sense and appreciation of it.

  To sum up, our future is digital. To achieve success in the 21st century, all of us need to attain proficiency in digital products.

范文2

From the day the first digital product was given birth, unbelievable changes have happened in our life.

  A few years ago, when we read, prints on the paper are the only media which carries meaning. When we listen to music, we have to buy magnetic tapes or CDs which record the sound.

  However, nowadays, our life is a totally different picture. We read books all the same, but many of them are e-books which is more convenient and more cheap. As to music, with a matchbox-sized mp3 player, we can download whatever we like from the boundless music files on the internet. These are only the most insignificant examples how digital products have benefit us. Thanks to indigital products, the variety and quantity of information we can obtain is unprecedented. In everyday work, study and many other aspects, digital products have played a more and more important life in our life.

  However, on the other hand, digital products also cause many negative effects to our lives. As life become more and more convenient, most people become more and more indifferent.

  They close their doors and never go out as soon as they get home from work. If they live alone, they will kill their time by surfing online. They don't have any connections even with their closest neighbors, who seem no different from people they meet everyday in the street.

  For students, they spend much more time than before on listening to the music or playing computer games. These phenomena are no good to our universities, nor to our society.

  On the whole, it is high time that we recognized the positive effects and also the negative ones of digital products, and used them in the right way.

范文3

It is widely accept that the digital age has already arrived, such as mobile phone, Mp3, Mp4, digital camera, digital computer and so on. They make our life convenient and colourful.

  But at the same time many people maintain that just for these stuffs our life become more and more monotonous, and people lack face to face communication. Everything has two sides.

  The advantages of the digital products are obvious to some people. For one thing, in terms of convenient, the increasing popularity of using these has helped us save a lot of time. For another, due to the rising of digital age, it makes our life colourful. We often see all sorts of people bring different kinds of products of digital age to go sightseeing and travelling.

  However, there are still quite a few people who strongly oppose these fashionable digital things. Reality mobile phones, in some extent, make friends lack face to face communication, and the families spend less and less time together, which cause generation gap and indifference to the person around us.

  Personally, I side with the former opinion. It is a wonderful feeling and a great way to make our life much more colour and convenient. As long as the society is developed, there follows a great number of digital products.

  Should One Expect a Reward When Doing a Good Deed?

  A great many people presume upon a reward when doing a good deed. First and foremost, there is a natural tendency to equate doing good deeds with a certain amount of reward, and reward with a certain amount of money. What is more, they maintain that since the basis of contemporary society is money, one of the major means of earning money is getting reward by doing good deeds.

  On the contrary, the vast majority of people assume that doing a good deed should be based on people's personal interests. Hence, doing a good deed is fulfilling itself and reward is of minimal significance. Numerous examples can be given, but this will suffice. Mr. Leifeng lived a simple life dedicated to doing good deeds without expecting any reward and helping people from all walks of life, yet he was remembered as one of the most successful hero of our time.

  Generally speaking, it is my view that we should not expect a reward when doing a good deed. We do this for enjoyment, fulfillment and other spiritual enhancement, not for the purpose of reward.

  The Importance of Reading Classics

  It is widely acknowledged that reading the classics is both important and beneficial to the character development and personal growth of the young people. To me, nothing can bring more joy and happiness than reading those masterpieces created by great figures like Confucius and Cao Xueqin. I believe works like The Dream in the Red Chamber and The Legend of Three

  Kingdoms can drastically elevate one's aesthetic taste and deepen the understanding of the glorious history of Chinese culture.

  However, the modern society is full of temptations. Compared with TV soap operas, sport events, and video games, classical literary works are old fashioned and time consuming. In bookstores, “Fast-food” reading materials are replacing classics, and young writers with sensational and “cool” remarks win the support of a large number of fans.

  As the salt of this world, we college students should be fully aware of the important role the classics play in broadening one's vision. Therefore, we should start reading and studying the treasuries our ancestors left and absorbing the essence of those classical works. We should also advocate to the public the importance of classics so that an increasing number of general people can enjoy the pleasure of reading.

题目:国外旅游

  2、出现这种现象的原因

  3、这种现象可能产生的影响

  表格:

  1995  2000  2005

  1万人  近4万 12万以上

  From the table, we can see that in the past 10 years, the number of people in a given city who have gone traveling abroad has increased considerably. Especially in the recent 5 years, the figure has been more than tripled, surging from 40,000 to 120,000.

  There are several reasons for the change. Firstly, with the development of economy, more and more people become better off. And their ability to finance their trip abroad is growing. Secondly, tourism has greatly developed over the decade. Travel agencies offer not only domestic packages but also travel specials abroad. In addition, individuals today are expected and encouraged to go outside to widen their horizon and to face the real world of globalization. In this way they hope to keep themselves informed of what is going on around the world.

From the changes reflected in the table, we can predict that the number of individuals going out of the country will boost. This encouragingly and inevitably facilitates the cultural exchange between ours and the rest of the world and this trend will be irreversible.

  Intelligence-Nature or Nurture?
  Nowadays, there is no agreement among people concerning intelligence. Some people contend that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. And the closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence.
  However, others maintain that environment plays a crucial role in our intelligence. For instance, if we put two identical twins in different environments, we might send one to university and the other to a factory where the job is boring, we would find differences in their intelligence several years later.
  Just as every coin has two sides, our intelligence is partly born and partly developed. The sure way to develop our intelligence is intelligent parents as well as a good environment.

  It is your parents who teach you to walk; it is your parents who teach you to speak; it is your parents who teach you to do these basic things in your life. Thus parents should be the best teachers!
  First of all, parents know us more than others do. Parents give us life, and I consider that we will spend plenty of time with them. Therefore, they learn about our merit and shortcomings clearly. At the same time, they will help us to shake off our demerit. Besides, parents own much more life experience than us. Sometimes, they are just like our models. And as the saying goes: “Example is better than precept.” Thus we will unconsciously imitate some of our parents’ habits and styles of behavior, which means that we can learn good things from them.
  Just as the saying goes: “There is no place like home.” And I think there is no teacher like our parents. They are the best teachers in our life.

  A Shopping Center in the Neighborhood
  Although large shopping centers are very convenient and good places to spend free time, they can also bring some disadvantages, and for this reason I would disagree with the building of one in my neighborhood.
  First of all, one disadvantage of having a large shopping center would be a great increase in traffic. More cars would not only bring traffic jams but also noise and parking problems. Second, a large shopping center requires a lot of space. To build one, some open space would have to be sacrificed. We might no longer have room for a sports ground.
  Just because of the above disadvantages, I would oppose any plan to construct a large shopping center in my neighborhood. Although it is necessary for me to visit shopping centers on occasion, I could spend some time traveling to another one not far away. My neighborhood is a peaceful and quiet place and I hope it will stay that way.

  How to Arrange Your Time at College?
  Nowadays, people are divided on the question how students should arrange their school days. Some people claim students should spend the whole school days in academic studies. However, others contend physical exercise should be a required part of every school day.

As for me, I will choose the latter without hesitation. Being a student, his or her main task is to work hard on his or her academic study. Only by studying hard can he or she obtain adequate   knowledge from academic studies. Nevertheless, I don’t think a student should focus on studying   too much, he or she should join in other meaningful activities. For instance, doing physical exercise is a good way to make students’ life more colorful and beneficial.

In a word, when students gain knowledge from academic studies, they should not neglect to relax themselves and take regular physical exercise.

  Do Libraries Become Useless at the Age of Information?

  There has been a heated discussion about libraries at the age of information among people. Some people, especially the younger generation, challenge the value of conventional libraries. When they need any information in their studies or work, they can turn to their computers for help. For this reason, they do not need to go to a library for borrowing or returning one or two books.

  While others, including most old people as well as scholars, value libraries. They love libraries because they can enjoy peace and quietness in an isolated spiritual world. And they also have access to rare academic works needed for their studies in the libraries.

  In my view, conventional libraries are still available though there is still much room for improving. At the Age of Information, as long as knowledge is respected and cherished, libraries won’t extinct from our lives. On the other hand, libraries should not refuse the latest information technology, which will enable them to regain those young readers.

  Social Practice

  Social practice is a bridge between their theory and reality. So, in recent years, more and more college students choose to take part-time jobs in or outside school.

  In the social practice, students are sure to learn more than their textbooks. Their participation in social practice might strengthen their sense of social responsibility. Their close contact with the working people might help them to apply their knowledge to the solution to the practical problem. But many teachers complain that there are fewer and fewer students who pay attention to their study.

  In my view, it’s an undenied fact that students break the balance between their jobs and studies, especially when they fall into conflict. But I think students should spend their spare time taking part-time jobs. Timely participation in social practice will benefit them all through their life.

  Generally aid-education is helpful in two aspects. First of all, it can broaden volunteers’ horizons in poverty-stricken regions. For instance, it is a golden opportunity for volunteers to experience a completely different life. In addition, college students have to adapt themselves to the harsh living conditions, meanwhile they can make friends with the children.

  In my view, the future of China’s education depends on the joint efforts of the society, the government and all the citizens. To sum up, we college students should take the initiative in response to the appeal for supplying help to children in poor regions.

  In the first place, students can choose the teacher according to their interests, which will be helpful for their future careers. Besides, selecting courses can reduce the rate of students’ absence indirectly for students usually choose their favorite teachers.

  As far as I am concerned, every coin has two sides. On the one hand, students may learn the course better, because they may choose the professor they liked. On the other hand, if the professor who is very popular and a great number of students would like to attend his/her course, the classroom must be overcrowded. It will have a bad impact on the class.

Thirdly, the drop in price and the simultaneous improvement in the functions have made it possible for an average person to make use of a cell phone. ?

In order to continue my study, I have to apply for a student loan.

  If my request is granted, I will make good use of the money and put my heart into study. I will definitely pay back the loan according to the requirements. I hope that you will consider my application.

  Looking forward to your reply.

With the modernization of the world, people’s standard of living has improved a lot. Then there appears a state of sub-health among people which poses a new threat to them.

There are some typical symptoms for people who are in a state of sub-health. First of all, those who suffer from it often have a headache or backache. Secondly, they feel like having a rest frequently. What upsets us most is that, the situation is spreading countrywide. As a result, more and more workers in big cities are harassed by it, with a percentage of 75 in Beijing, 72 in Shanghai and 70 in Guangzhou respectively.

Then how can we solve this problem effectively? Experts suggest that the best way to keep ourselves healthy is to do exercises. It is also very important that people should form a good living habit, for example, getting up early and going to sleep early. Only doing so can we keep us healthy.

 I was a little nervous when I went to the woman’s house. I was told that the talk between us that day would decide whether I could take the job. However, when the woman, Lucy as she was called, welcomed me into her house, I felt much relaxed. I thought as long as I was sincere and friendly I would perform well. The conversation went on smoothly. She seemed much more interested in my habits and hobbies than how good I was at English. It happened that we have the same hobby: playing tennis. I told her about my family and school life. Obviously I succeeded and from then on I went to teach her English every weekend.

Lucy told me later that it was my sincerity that made her willingly accept me. It is true that we can play some tricks while seeking for a job, but remember to be sincere. It’s the secret of my success.

My Opinion on Campus Love

On campus, lovers can be found here and there. Some people think too much intimacy has a bad influence. It takes lovers too much time and energy. Furthermore, their intimacy can distract their own as well as other students’ attention from study. Campus should be a place for study and should maintain an atmosphere of learning. On the other hand, other people believe it is OK. Pursuing love is all right to students on campus and intimacy is a natural expression of love. Some scholars of law hold that friendship and appropriate intimacy are an important part of student development.
  In my opinion, what all people should do is just leave it as it is. University students are adults, and they can handle their own affairs well enough. However, they have to admit that school is a place where people receive an education and their main task is to study. Therefore, students are expected to behave themselves in proper ways.

Do We Need “Never give up”?

It is widely accepted that “Never give up”, a strong and positive life attitude, is the key for individual success on the grounds that permanent persistence may boost our confidence, strengthen our will, and provide us a second chance for success when we are in hardship. However, others argue that sensible abandonment is more precious than blind persistence because the wise one should choose the most suitable area for himself/herself.

In my opinion, we need to learn to give up timely. The most immediate reason is that we should adjust our aim carefully in order to go ahead continuously. Sometimes, to give up those unrealistic targets is essential for success. Besides, the attitude “Never give up” exhausts us both mentally and physically. Only through learning to give up can we lead a pleasant and relaxing life. Finally, the temporary comprise means a new start, a beginning bringing new hopes, expectations and opportunities for us.

Passive as giving up sounds alike, it represents a more mature and realistic mentality. If those opposing this attitude can take into consideration of its benefits, then this may seem acceptable in our lives.

As we know, the temptation and opportunities provided by big cities attract people who want to make a fortune in big cities, which is the major cause of housing problem in big cities. Besides, house vacancy and speculating in the housing market are becoming the tough problem. We can’t deny the housing problem has brought about great pressure to the low-income families. Meanwhile, solving this problem will affect the public’s confidence on the government.

To solve this problem, I think building satellite cities in the suburbs is more practical. The fresh air and beautiful scenery in the suburbs will pull many people from the overcrowded city and alleviate the pressure of housing.

How to Eliminate Fake Diplomas?

There has been a serious epidemic of fake diplomas in some big cities recently. Usually a certificate of Bachelor’s Degree costs about 200 yuan, which is really cheap compared with the 4 years of hard work and the pretty big sum of fees involved in normal ways of getting the diploma.

The victims of fake diplomas are first of all employers, who pay high salaries but do not get real talents. People who have genuine diplomas are also hurt greatly. They have honestly spent 4 or even more years and great energy working hard in schools, but cannot get any advantage in job hunting.

To combat the epidemic, practical ability and individual personality should be recognized as important factors of excellent job performance. Besides, effective measures supported by advanced IT technology should be introduced and taken to help employers distinguish genuine diplomas from fake ones.

Personally, I side with the former opinion. It is a wonderful feeling and a great way to relax for me to watch talent shows and see ordinary people like myself become famous and win cash prizes. As long as talent shows are entertaining and inspiring us, there is great sense in keeping and encouraging them.

A Letter of Advice

Dear Freshmen,

I, the undersigned, am a senior in the Computer Science Department of Peking University. I would like to say a few words to you, which I hope would be helpful to you.

To begin with, the change of ideas is of most importance for freshmen to adapt themselves to campus life. During the middle school days, we usually depend upon our teachers at school and parents at home. However, the life and study on university campus features independence, which is essential to our psychological development. In my view, we had better always bear in mind the idea of independence.

What ’s more, English learning is a must. On one hand, without CET 4 certificate, we can not get our degree when we graduate from university. On the other hand, when we hunt for job, English level is a deciding factor. Therefore, I do hope that all of you will have a good understanding of the necessity of learning English well.

Good Luck to you!

Sincerely Yours

Li Ming

参考范文:

Earth Hour

  Earth Hour started in Australia with millions of homes and businesses turning their lights off for one hour. Now it has grown to become one of the world’s biggest climate change initiatives. People are all joining together in a global effort to show that it’s possible to take action on global warming.

  Earth Hour has brought about some new changes to our lives. The iconic "Bird’s Nest" National Stadium and the nearby "Water Cube" National Aquatics Center, usually illuminated by floodlights, went dark at 8:30 p.m., while dozens of hotels, office buildings, shopping malls and restaurants also switched some lights off. People join activities such as candle-lit dinners and star-gazing parties as a response to the call for "going dark". However, some critics have dismissed the event as simply a gimmick that will not make any difference.

From my point of view, Earth Hour is a global call to action to every individual, every business and every community. A call to stand up, to take responsibility and to get involved in working towards a sustainable future. Earth Hour is a message of hope and a message of action. Everyone can make a difference.
