    【参考范文】
    Which to Celebrate—the Western or Eastern Festivals? Nowadays, most young people are willing to celebrate western festivals. As a result, importance should be attached to the issue of festival celebration.
    As to which to celebrate, there exist different ideas. For one thing, western festival celebrations are so colorful and interesting. Just imagine the romantic atmosphere on St. Valentine’s Day, the fun on All Fool’s Day and the ecstasy brought by gifts and games at Christmas. For another, Chinese festivals have their own attractions. Think about the comfort of family reunion during Spring Festival and the delicacy of national feelings on many occasions.
    As for me, some meaningful western festivals are no doubt days to set aside as special. Meanwhile, I cannot afford to be absent from family gathering during many Chinese festivals. My celebration would be a combined one, some for western festivals, some for Chinese ones.

He led us to an appreciation of the beauty and perfection of English language and literature, rather than tedious grammar or vocabulary. Then, I was attracted by his wisdom and humor. I still remember many of his classes, which were humorously delivered, and filled with chuckles or loud laughs.

    Internet Friendship According to the recent survey, 80% of people who surf online are in search of social interaction. As a consequence, the voice speaking from the other side of the line can be used to disguise aspects of a user’s personality. And this might bring an unpleasant or even damaging outcome.

    In my opinion, it is true that people may gain community on the net, but this exists only in cyberspace. Although Internet friendship can give users companionship and even romance, it ends with failure and even disaster most of the time. It is high time that we placed great emphasis on this phenomenon.

    Tour Fever Should Be Cooled Down As a new and expanding industry, tourism is attracting more and more public attention. Consequently, both arguments and counter-arguments concerning its development have emerged as time goes on. I’d like to focus on its counteraction on social progress.
    Above all, tourism sometimes leaves the local people psychologically unbalanced. Because it is usually people from better-off countries or regions that can afford to travel, their wealth sometimes makes the local people more aware of their own poverty.
    Next, the exploitation of tourism is bound to destroy some natural resources and scenic areas. Environmental pollution is a case in point and its far-reaching harm is self-evident.

    But the criteria for good students are changing now. True, good marks continue to be some students: dream, yet there are a growing number of students who are concerned much more about extracurricular activities for all-round development. They involve in community services and activities. Some students even become campus “businessmen” or “businesswomen” by starting or serving in self-supporting businesses.

    【范文】
    My Idea of Professional Ethics for a Scientist There is no denying that a distinguished scientist should not only be learned and creative but also have good professional ethics for the good of both society and the scientist himself. But what are good professional ethics for a scientist?
    In my opinion, a scientist should possess the following qualities. First of all, an eminent scientist should make sure that his knowledge is used to bring benefits to the general public rather than to make his personal gains. He should devote himself to the advancement of technology, with the aim of raising the living standards of people and making our world a better place to live in. Secondly, as a respectable scientist, he should be on good terms with other scientists. Cooperation and mutual trust between scientists are very critical for scientific achievements. Thirdly, a good scientist should be honest and respect the work of others. Never should he copy from others or falsify research findings. Last but not the least, a scientist should be a responsible person. He should not make any hasty decisions. Once a decision is made he should shoulder its consequence.
    In a word, an excellent scientist should have good professional ethics to win the respect of the people and contribute more to people’s benefits.

You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    Youth Unemployment upon Graduation The recent years have witnessed a depressing social phenomenon in many countries—a great number of college students become unemployed after graduation. This fact not only causes pressure for the graduates, but also lays burden on the society.
    There are mainly two possible reasons accounting for this problem. Firstly, the expansion of universities provides chances for more students to receive higher education, but the job market cannot develop at the same speed. The situation is even worse with those students who uniformly choose the “hot” majors such as economics and accounting. Secondly, some students think too highly of themselves so that they choose not to work at all if they are not satisfied with the salary or working environment of the job.
    To solve this problem, the government should try to develop the economy in order to create more job opportunities. College authorities should take the job market into consideration when enrolling students. Besides, students also should cherish every job opportunity.

You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    Undoubtedly, the Internet has become a major choice when looking for information or seeking pleasure for us modern people. It provides us with instant news stories, color pictures, and video clips. Based on this, many people maintain that the Internet outweighs the newspapers, and hence will replace the latter one. However, the extinction of the newspaper will not be seen in a relatively short time. The following are the reasons.
    First of all, the convenience of the newspaper is its biggest advantage. We could fold a piece of newspaper and put it in our pocket when taking a bus. Some would argue that using other devices such as cell phone, laptop, etc, we could easily get access to the Internet, thus looking for news. But this requires electronic devices and the number of the people who have such tools is still not high.
    In addition, the Internet does no good to our health. Exposure to radiation cannot be avoided when we access the internet, by whatever means we use. Newspaper, in contrast, has no radiation at all. For the sake of our health, the newspaper is a better option.
    Newspaper has a long tradition in the mass media. Many press and agencies are built on this industry. Once newspaper becomes extinct, the structure of the industries will have to change. Even if newspaper becomes a thing of the past, it will not happen in a short period.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    The best holidays are the ones spent in a different country. Do you absolutely reach an agreement with me? At least, I suggest so. Regarding the reasons, the following example related to my own experience can prove everything.
    Several years ago, I was lucky to have an opportunity to go to Singapore to have a summer camp with my high middle school teachers. We have stayed there for about half a month. During that period of time, we had interviewed many high middle schools, and we exchanged our experience of teaching, learning, school management and so on. In that way, we had truly gained much valuable experience. We also paid several visits to some beautiful tourist attractions that were quite different from those of China. Lastly I had also found that Singapore is a country with severe laws for protecting pubic sanitation. It is very easy to find that the country is very clean and tidy with fresh air permeating everywhere.
    Till now, through spending holidays in a foreign country, we can really gain a great deal. We can get to know quite different forms of cultures and customs. We can enlarge our vision and may also make several friends from different nationalities. However, the journey abroad will cost you a large sum of money. In all, the benefits obviously outweigh its expenditure.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    Living in the College Town In recent years, college towns have been thriving across China as a result of rapid economic and cultural development. Students hold different views on living in these remote areas of their cities.
    Many of them loathe the isolation from city life. They complain about the tedious experience of catching the shuttle bus to the outskirts every day. And what annoys them more is that they are detached from normal campus life and they find few teachers to interact with. However, quite a number of students argue that staying away from the bustling surroundings will eventually benefit their academic performance.
    As one of the students living in a college town, I have deeply experienced the inconvenience and monotony. Therefore, some measures should be taken so that more attention can be given to the students in the college town. On the one hand, more cultural events and recreation activities can be launched. On the other hand, a closer teacher-student relationship should be established so as to strengthen their communication.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    It Pays to Be Honest Nowadays, some people hold the opinion that those honest people are fools whose ways of coping with the outside world cannot work. They believe that only those who stop at nothing to get what one wants can subsist and succeed in our society, which features severe competitions. However, in my opinion, no matter what we do, to be honest is the best policy for all of us. If we stick to the principle of honesty, we will benefit and achieve for sure a lot from it, which will promote us to succeed in the future.
    Honesty can help us win trust and respect from others, which no doubt will do good to us. In university, for example, to students, honesty is of great importance and of great value to their academic research or cooperation with their supervisors. To tell the truth, it requires a good deal of time and patience to do the research honestly. Nevertheless, we will learn a lot from our hard work and will feel fulfilled as well. At the same time, our efforts will be recognized by our supervisors. In this way our honesty will not only bring us improvement in studies, but also will lead to mutual trust and respect between students and supervisors.
    In conclusion, honesty is the best policy for all of us. Whatever we do we must uphold the principle of honesty, because it not only can win trust and respect from others for us, but also bring us more opportunities in the future.

    正确答案:
    【参考范文】
    Immoral Behavior in Public To witness immoral behavior in public, one just needs to have a look at the bus stop. There are always lots of people waiting for buses at the bus stop. Few of them stand in line as required. Whenever a bus comes, many people just run to the bus and try to get on in chaos. Many of them push each other in an effort to get on first.
    Immoral behavior in public leads to a series of problems. Among the most serious, one is that it may exert a negative effect on our sense of social responsibility. If we allow this kind of immoral behavior to continue, we are ignoring others’ rights and feelings, and in turn, we as well will be disrespected.
    To improve this phenomenon is certainly not easy. In view of practical implementation, I propose that society make it clear at all points that people who fail to respect the common good will be seriously punished. Strict policies regarding this should be made to correct this phenomenon as soon as possible.

    Holiday Economy The long holidays have caused unexpected great travel craze and brisk economic activities. Holiday spending, not only adds fuel to the Chinese economy, but also leads to the creation of a new term “holiday economy”.
    Some economists are in favor of the holiday economy and they believe it has many advantages. Firstly, tourism-based holiday economy will raise consumption, up spending and, therefore, help to spur the domestic demand. Secondly, it benefits tourism, transportation, and hotel and service industries and enables them to thrive during holidays.
    However, others overstate its disadvantages and hold that it brings undeniable problems: Thousands and thousands of tourists flood into scenic spots, jamming railway stations and airports, causing some over-crowdedness and safety problems.

    Teenage Smoking Soars In recent years, China has experienced an alarming increase in teenage smoking. The statistics are quite disturbing and cause people to ask why.

Some attribute it to the increased standard of living which enables kids to have more pocket money, while others blame cigarette advertising and the import of cigarettes. In addition to the external circumstances, the psychological factors should also be examined. Most young people begin to smoke merely out of curiosity: they have a strong desire to experience the pleasure of smoking. They also have a subconscious feeling that smoking will make them mature and tough and sophisticated.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    Can Money Buy Happiness? I have once seen a caricature that depicted an ironic picture: a man who is overloaded with a pretty large piece of gold is making every effort to creep forward. However, there is much to say about it. It gives a vivid expression to a serious topic—Can money buy happiness?
    Money means wealth—social wealth as well as personal wealth. Making money is creating wealth. The more money you have, the wealthier you are. To increase wealth is what a person desires and what society needs. A person’s desire can never be satisfied and social progress has no ending. Therefore, making money is one of essential activities that identify a person’s existence.
    Happiness is referred to as enjoyable experiences that people are feeling. To some extent, enjoyable experiences result from a person’s mental satisfaction. People can never get satisfied with making money, so money is something distant from happiness. Although the man mentioned above is possessed of much money, he is suffering from the weight of gold. It is not exceptional that some millionaires are not happy at all in life. Indeed, money can buy wealth, but it cannot buy happiness if inappropriately used.
    Nevertheless money is not in contradiction to happiness when making money is regarded as a means to attain a definite goal. In a word, more attention should be focused on orientation of life when it comes to the subject—Can money buy happiness?

    Practice 4Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the remark “Some people place a high value on loyalty to the employer. To others, it is perfectly acceptable to change jobs every few years to build a career.” You can cite examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    Should We Change Jobs a Lot or Not? Different cultures place varying values on loyalty to the employer. In some countries, most notably in Asia, there is a high degree of loyalty to one company. However, in most European countries and the United States, loyalty to one’s employer is not highly valued; instead, it is considered more rational and reasonable for an employee to change jobs whenever it is warranted to achieve the optimal overall career. Both of these positions have advantages and disadvantages.
    In cultures that value loyalty to the employer, a kind of family relationship seems to develop between employer and employee. It is a reciprocal arrangement which the employer is concerned with assisting the employee to develop his/her full potential and the employee is concerned about optimizing the welfare of the company. The negative aspect of absolute loyalty to one company is that an employee may stay in one job that he/she has outgrown and may miss out on opportunities to develop in new directions. From the employer’s point of view, the company may be burdened with employees whose skills no longer match the needs of the company.
    In cultures in which it is quite acceptable to change jobs every few years, employees can build the career they choose for themselves. They can stay with one company as long as it is mutually beneficial to company and employee. As long as good relationship exists and the employee’s career is advancing at an acceptable pace, the employee can remain with a company. But at any time the employee is free to move to another, perhaps to achieve a higher position, to move into a new area, or to find a work situation that is more suitable to his/her personality. The disadvantage of this situation is that employees tend to move from around a lot.
    Although both of these systems have advantages and disadvantages, it is much better for employees to have opportunity to move from job to job if it is necessary to have a better career.

    My View on Home-fear Group As usual, many people working outside will be eager to go home and visit friends and families whom they have missed terribly. However, according to a survey, the surprise is that there are an increasing number of people, known as the “home-fear” group, who feel anxious about returning home.
    As far as I am concerned, such fears can be attributed to economic pressure, long distance, parents’ desire to see their child get married and so on. Besides, difficulty in buying tickets is another important reason causing fear. In Spring Festival, not only bus and train but also airplane can not offer enough seats to take people home. So many people have to line up in advance for a couple days. In addition, many people are anxious about having to spend a lot of money during the festival.
    In my opinion, Spring Festival is the time for family reunion. Therefore, the “home-fear group” should abandon all their worries, and go home to spend Spring Festival with their family.

    Practice 3Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the topic “How to Solve the Energy Problem.” You can cite examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    How to Solve the Energy Problem Energy is one of the biggest problems people are faced with today. Not a few far-sighted people point out that our natural resources are very much limited. If we keep consuming our resources at the present rate, they warn, the world will soon be running out of oil, coal and metals and this will certainly lead to a serious energy crisis threatening mankind’s survival.
    The majority of the world’s people have responded with a clamor for more severe conservation of our natural resources. This is urgently necessary, indeed. It must be realized that much of our energy, in the form of oil, coal, gas, or electricity, has been wantonly consumed. If things go on like this, we will leave for our descendants a devastated world, a vast stretch of wasteland. So, from now on, we will have to make serious efforts to practise economy in using energy and cut down waste of any form so as to slow down the present drain on our limited resources.
    But conservation alone is not all the answer. The best way to solve the energy problem is, I think, to develop new sources of energy. It is obvious that, even if we save much energy by using it carefully, our natural resources, however abundant, will run out ultimately. And when they are unexplored areas seems to be the only way out of our predicament.
