2010年12月四级考试作文预测预测作文1. Protect Non-Material Cultural Heritage1. 保护非物质文化遗产很重要2. 非物质文化遗产指的是…3. 为保护非物质文化遗产我们应该…【范文】Protect Non-Material Cultural HeritageAs we all know, non-material cultural heritage, also called intangible culture, plays an important role in maintaining the continuity of the nation’s civilization and sustainable development. But due to the development of globalization and other reasons, more and more non-material cultural heritages are on the verge of distinction. So its protection has become an urgent and important task at present.What is non-material cultural heritage exactly? It refers to various manifestations of traditional culture handed down from generation to generation and closely related to people’s life, including various practices, performances, festivals, traditional knowledge and skills, the related instruments, artifacts and cultural places. For example, paper-cutting and Dragon Boat Festival have been regarded as non-material cultural heritage not only by our country but also by the United Nations. Then how can we protect the intangible culture? First of all, we can introduce special programmes and columns on TV or in the newspapers and magazines to arouse people’s awareness of its preservation. Second, we should have a rational attitude towards the acceptance of foreign cultures. Last but not least, we can enforce laws to intensify the protection of non-material cultural heritage.预测作文2. On Graffiti1. 校园“涂鸦”现象随处可见2. 人们对此看法不同3. 我的看法Useful words and expressions:涂鸦：graffiti恶意破坏：vandalism【范文】On GraffitiNowadays it is very common to see graffiti on campus, such as the graffiti on desks. Sometimes you can even see graffiti on students’ uniforms. Some of these graffiti are just cartoons and advertisements which do no harm to students. But a lot of them contain unhealthy information which has a bad effect on students.This phenomenon has attracted the public’s attention. Some say it is not only a way for students to release pressure, but also an expression of art. But others consider it as a form of vandalism and also a reflection of the problems in the school culture.In my opinion, we can turn graffiti into a meaningful activity if students and the school make joint effort. First, students should have a correct understanding of graffiti and find a proper way to relax themselves. Second, the school ought to give students right guidance and professional advice, such as organizing some contests, which can provide space for them to show their skills and creativity.预测作文3. Suspend Schooling to Work1. 目前有些大一学生申请休学一年到校外打工2. 出现这种现象的原因是…3. 你对此的看法【范文】Suspend Schooling to WorkCurrently, some university students are applying to suspend their schooling to work for one year or so. In some colleges, the number is surprisingly big. Here is an example: according to a news report, up to three percent of an art college’s students have suspended schooling to work.Students suspend their schooling to work for various reasons. Some students hope to better understand the need of the society through full-time working and then set more clear-cut objectives back in their study. Some intend to gain useful work experience which may land them an ideal job after graduation. Still, there are students who have to work to pay the tuition and accommodations due to financial problem of the family. Personally, I think it is a good try to suspend schooling to work for a year or so. We can easily see its benefits to both the students and the society no matter what reason mentioned above. Therefore, while emphasizing the issue of safety, college and universities should allow or encourage students to spend more time working and experiencing the society.预测作文4. Registering Online with Real Names1. 目前网络游戏等领域开始实行网络实名制2. 对于网络实名制，有人赞成，也有人反对3. 你的看法【范文】Registering Online with Real NamesOnline gamers in China will have to begin registering with their real names due to the new government regulations. Netizens may no longer post their comments onwebsites anonymously either. Because authorities will implement the real-name registration in communication sectors of cyberspace, such as bulletin board system,also known as BBS in short.The new regulations have provoked different reactions from the public. Some people say that they will benefit the healthy and orderly development of China’s Internet, e.g. protecting minors from Internet addiction and helping prevent irresponsible expression online. Others, however, oppose the regulations. They are concerned about web users’private information and personal safety.Personally, I think we should treat online real-name registration separately. For example, it’s necessary to use your real name on games or shopping websites. But online forums are designed to encourage web users to express their views freely. If required to use real names on bulletin boards, web users may not feel free to express their real thoughts.预测作文5. Create a Conservation-Oriented Campus1. 建设节约型校园十分重要2. 原因是…3. 为了建设节约型校园我们应该…【范文】Create a Conservation-Oriented CampusNowadays, conservation-oriented society has become a household term to all of us. It is our government’s strategy to maintain the sustainable development of society. Thus, the building of a conservation-oriented campus, which is a part of this plan, has a great significance.The creation of conservation-oriented campus can not only benefit the development of students but also the improvement of schools. On the one hand, students can form the good habit of thriftiness which can have a good influence on their future life. On the other hand, schools can use the savings to introduce more advanced facilities or recruit more talents which can help improve the quality of teaching.Then how can we build the conservation-oriented campus? Here are several measures we can take. First, we can organize some programs to let students be aware of the necessity and meaning of this proposal. Second, we can do some small things in our daily life, such as turning off the lights in classroom when it is unnecessary, taking care of the teaching facilities, which all contribute to the construction of conservation-oriented campus.预测作文6. Killing Time Indoors1. 现在有不少人业余时间喜欢“宅”在家里2. 人们对这种做法有不同看法3. 我的看法【范文】Killing Time IndoorsNowadays a growing number of people, especially the 20s or 30s, tend to stay indoors for most of their spare time, especially on holidays. Some spend the majority of the time online chatting, blogging, shopping, dating or playing computer games. Some sit with their eyes glued to the television screen, day and night.People’s opinions vary when it comes to this way of killing time. A great number of people maintain that staying indoors is cheap, comfortable, and most importantly, very safe. Others, however, frown upon staying indoors for too long. They are worried that lack of physical exercise and face-to-face communication with others will do harm to people’s body and mind.Personally, I don’t think staying indoors for most of the day should be advocated. Instead, people in all ages, their physical conditions permitting, should be encouraged to spend more time outdoors. The brilliant sunshine, the pleasant green space, the interactions with other people, etc. are all good for people’s health, both physically and psychologically.预测作文7. Restrict Mobile Phone in Library1. 现在有不少人在图书馆的阅览区里使用手机2. 这一现象可能带来的影响3. 我的看法【范文】Restrict Mobile Phone in LibraryAs the number of students who have mobile phones increases, problems which are caused by its popularity on campus also rise. One of the problems that have aroused people’s attention is the use of mobile phone in library’s reading room. And this phenomenon becomes so common that you can see someone using it whenever you go to the library.There is no doubt that this behavior will have no good effect. On the one hand, students who use it can not concentrate on their own studies when they constantly send or receive messages. On the other hand, with the ringing of the phones and people’s talking, students around them can be distracted from their reading as well. Therefore, the proper way of using mobile phones in the library must be emphasized. First, use phone’s silent or vibration setting to avoid the disturbance of other students. Second, if you do need to make a call or send messages, you’d better go out of the roomor at least try to reduce the volume of your sound and your phone’s sound.预测作文8. Whom Do You Turn to When in Trouble?1. 有人遇到困难时向同学、朋友求助2. 有人则向老师、家长求助3. 以你自己为例…【范文】Whom Do You Turn to When in Trouble?Just as the saying goes: life is not all roses, all of us will need someone else’s help to deal with problems that we encounter in our life. Here comes the question: whom will you turn to for help? Some say they will ask their classmates or friends for help, because they are peers, thus they can understand each other easily.However, others have different choices when in trouble. They are inclined to tell their teachers and parents the difficulties they are faced with. In their opinion, teachers and parents who are much older than them can give them a hand with their rich experience.As for me, close friends are always the people who come to my mind firstly when I’m intrigued by something that can not be solved by myself. If we can not figure out a solution by our joint effort, I will go to my teachers or parents for help. With their suggestions or instructions, I can finally find the best way to cope with my troubles.预测作文9. Should People Keep Bizarre Pets?1. 现在越来越多的人饲养另类宠物2. 人们对这一现象有不同看法3. 你的看法【范文】Should People Keep Bizarre Pets?Bizarre trends tend to surface here and there when you least expect them. Who would have thought that people would start a new bizarre trend of keeping unsightly and dangerous animals such as lizards, spiders and snakes as their pets? Well, that’s the newest craze now in China.People have different opinions about this trend. Some think that it is natural —everyone likes a pet, whether it is the “normal” kind, such as a dog, cat and rabbit or the strange, bizarre type. Others, however, oppose keeping bizarre pets. They are afraid that some pets such as snakes and crocodiles can be dangerous and put the owner or neighbors at risk.In my opinion, generally people do have the right to choose and own pets that touch their hearts. However, there are still animals that are illegal to be kept as private pets,especially those dangerous and endangered species that belong in the wild. So, before attempting to keep these animals, people should check with the local officials.预测作文10. Should We Help Strangers?1. 有人认为帮助陌生人是一种美德2. 有人却认为帮助陌生人会给自己带来危险3. 我认为…【范文】Should We Help Strangers?Helping strangers has always been considered as a treasured virtue of human kind. We need help from others throughout our life, whenever we travel to other places or stay at home. On the other hand, helping others can make us happy. We feel great joy when we are trusted, needed and able to give a hand.However, some people are cautious when it comes to helping strangers. They say that helping others involves risks of getting hurt or cheated. Lending a hand to a stranger often puts us in a vulnerable position for it means trusting someone we do not even know. Moreover, there are times when we have physical limitations — e.g. we can’t swim but a girl is drowning. If we are blind to that limitation, giving a hand would conversely take our life.In my opinion, we should still offer what we can do to help needed strangers. Meanwhile, we should beware of getting cheated and use common sense to tell whether the strangers are real needed people or just professional cheats. Detecting anything unusual, we should defend ourselves or turn to the police.预测作文11. Should Chinese Athletes Serve Overseas?1. 有些中国运动员取得其他国家国籍，代表他国参赛2. 对于这一现象，有人赞成，有人反对3. 你的看法【范文】Should Chinese Athletes Serve Overseas?Nowadays it’s not rare that some Chinese athletes, top athletes especially, settle abroad and acquire foreign nationality. When taking part in international games, they represent and play for the immigrated countries instead of their motherland China.To this phenomenon, people have different opinions. Some people condemn these athletes for being unpatriotic. After all, they say, it costed China lots of time and energy to train them to be top athletes. Others, however, see it in a different way. They maintain that sports should go beyond national boundaries and as long as we can appreciate athletes’ excellent performance, nationality really doesn’t count.In my opinion, it is just natural for Chinese athletes to represent other countries in international games, and, it has nothing to do with being patriotic or not. For one thing, everyone enjoys the right to choose nationality. For another, as today’s world goes global, international exchange of athletes is evitable in the process. Athletes going global are just following the trends of historical development.预测作文12. Text Messages on TV Shows1. 目前各类电视节目广泛使用短信参与方式2. 人们对此有不同看法3. 我认为…【范文】Text Messages on TV ShowsAt present, text messages are widely used in various TV shows. From serious news programs to different kinds of entertainment programs, we can always see some interactive sessions which all include the use of text messages, such as text-message voting.Is it good or bad? Some people hold the view that it provides a convenient and relatively cheap way for audience to participate in the program. While others think it is nothing but a method which takes advantage of the public’s curiosity and their hope of winning awards to lure them into sending lots of messages that cost them a large amount of money.As far as I’m concerned, text message is an effective medium for the audience to interact with the TV shows, which can arouse people’s passion for watching the programs, and bring benefits to the TV station as well. But when we are enjoying the merit of it, we should also take the contents and objectives of the programs using text messages into consideration to ensure the quality of the TV shows.预测作文13. Low-carbon Lifestyle1. 目前低碳生活成为一种流行2. 低碳生活指的是…3. 作为大学生我应该怎么做【范文】Low-carbon LifestyleEver since the World Climate Conference was held in Copenhagen, the term “low-carbon lifestyle” has become a buzzword in our daily life. Everyone, old or young, is talking about it and exerting himself to achieve the low-carbon goal. Even the celebrities are exerting their great influence to the common goal of low-carbon lifestyle.What on earth is low-carbon lifestyle? Low-carbon lifestyle means to lower the emission of carbon, especially carbon dioxide, by reducing the energy we use in our daily life. For common people like us, this is an attitude rather than a capacity. Low-carbon lifestyle calls for the active participation of all the people in the process of saving electricity and gas, as well as recycling the useful materials.As college students, we should contribute to the revolution of low-carbon lifestyle by all means. Firstly, we should avoid using disposable products to reduce the emission of carbon dioxide. Secondly, taking public transport rather than driving is another effective way. Last but not least, both we and the earth will benefit enormously if we eat green food instead of junk food.预测作文14. The Real-name Train Ticket System Launched1. 有些地方开始实行火车票实名制，目的是…2. 也会带来问题3. 你的看法【范文】The Real-name Train Ticket System LaunchedIn some southern cities, railway station offices and authorized agencies have begun selling name-based railway tickets. Requiring a valid form of identification, the real-name system aims to make buying tickets more convenient and fairer. It is also said to be effective in curbing scalping, especially during the Chinese New Year travel peak.Though the aim of introducing real-name train ticket is fully justified, it has brought about some problems. One problem is the leaking of personal information. Buyers’names and ID numbers printed on the tickets may be used to make false certificates or for other purposes once the tickets fall into the wrong hands. Another is that the complicated system and check-in process add to the already heavy workload of the railway workers.In my view, the name-based train ticket system is a bold try to ensure passengers’security and an effective weapon against notorious scalping. Since it is new-born and needs time to perfect itself, we should treat fairly the current problems it brings. I believe that with people’s awareness of privacy protection enhanced, and with the development of technology, the problems will soon be things of the past.预测作文15. On Vegetarian1. 近年来越来越多的人成为素食者2. 人们对素食的看法不一3. 我的看法【范文】On VegetarianIn recent years, more and more people are becoming vegetarians. Some of them choose not to eat meat or fish for health or religious reasons. Some do so because they want to avoid cruelty to animals.People have very different opinions about vegetarianism. Some maintain that going vegetarian benefits not only people’s health but also the environment, since human beings are not born to eat meat or fish and vegetarians produce much less carbon. Others, however, argue that a diet consisting completely of vegetables, fruits, grains and nuts fails to provide essential nutrients such as vitamins and fat for people. In this sense, it’s more likely that a vegetarian will suffer from malnutrition.Both sides give their reasonable explanation. Nonetheless, whether to be vegetarian, in my opinion, it still depends. For overweight adults, vegetarianism would be a good choice for both their health and body shape, so they should give it a try. However, for underweight people or children who need different types of food necessary for healthy growing, vegetarianism is not recommended.预测作文16. Should We Resume the Traditional Chinese Characters?1. 有人提出恢复使用繁体字2. 有人对此反对3. 你的看法【范文】Should We Resume the Traditional Chinese Characters?With the increasing exchanges between the mainland and Taiwan or Hong Kong, a problem has attracted people’s attention: different Chinese characters used in different parts seem to stand in the way of the exchanges. So some people propose to resume the traditional Chinese characters. Besides, they say, learning traditional characters helps people know better about our traditional culture.Others, however, oppose the proposal. Firstly, they argue that traditional Chinese characters are much more complicated than the simplified ones. If we bring back the traditional ones, it will add to the difficulty of both writing and reading. Secondly, for foreigners, simplified characters are much easier to learn, which may help popularize the Chinese culture.Personally speaking, I don’t see anything wise in the restoring of the traditional Chinese characters. It is obvious that bringing them back will cost a lot of time and energy, because nearly all the mainlanders will have to start from the scratch. In addition, foreign exchange will be affected with foreigners frightened away by thecomplicated characters.预测作文17. Principals Recommending Students to PKU1. 北大开始实行校长推荐制2. 对此有人赞成，有人反对3. 我的看法【范文】Principals Recommending Students to PKUPeking University released a name list of 39 high school principals who have the right to recommend outstanding students to the university. According to the university, the recommended students could be given offers without taking the national college entrance examination.As a reform measure of enrollment, the recommendation policy has attracted widespread attention across the county. Some believe it is a new flexible method to recruit all kinds of talent and will supplement the present college entrance examination. Many people, however, are worried that the policy might impair equality in education. They maintain that while an effective supervisory system over the new practice is absence, there will probably be damage to equality and fairness in education.Personally speaking, I’m afraid that Peking University’s recommendation policy might lead to greater education inequality. The policy is supposed to make the recruitment system more flexible, but when only 39 school headmasters have the right to recommend excellent students, is it really a flexible way of recruiting? This policy is nothing but an extra opportunity for these schools.预测作文18. On Professional Ethics of Doctors1. 目前许多医生的职业道德遭到人们的质疑2. 原因是…3. 你认为应该如何解决这一问题【范文】On Professional Ethics of DoctorsRecently, professional ethics of many doctors have been questioned. According to a survey on professional ethics violating, doctors were ranked first. Many doctors are reported to treat patients lightly and take bribes from patients or medicine manufacturers.There are two factors contributing to this phenomenon. One factor is how doctors are paid. Since most doctors are paid according to the quantities rather than qualities of medical services they perform, many of them tend to see more patients at theexpense of quality. The other factor is how people see doctors’ taking bribes. Doctors’performances concern patients’ health and life, and most patients or their families assume that doctors would try their best in the medical treatment if they take bribes, so many doctors take bribes for granted.How should we solve these problems? First, I think it is necessary to carry out reforms in the paying system and encourage doctors to perform high-quality medical services. Second, we should change the attitudes of both patients and doctors and make it very clear that treating and saving people are doctors’ duty instead of privilege.预测作文19. Should We Trace and Reclaim Cultural Relics Lost Overseas?1. 有人赞同到海外追回流失的文物2. 有人则反对3. 我的看法【范文】Should We Trace and Reclaim Cultural Relics Lost Overseas?The loss of China’s cultural relics is a serious problem and also a historical issue. Some people now firmly support tracing and reclaiming cultural relics lost overseas. In terms of the significance or value, they insist, the lost relics are historically, scientifically and artistically important. Besides, it is just natural that the owner gets back what belongs to him.Others, however, oppose the recovery. Since many lost cultural relics are put up for auction, it is the traffickers, speculators and overseas auction houses that benefit most from the reclaiming. Worse still, the huge profit from cultural relics would stir up more smuggling and illegal digging for cultural relics. In a way, tracing and reclaiming the lost cultural relics would set up a vicious circle.Personally speaking, I think we should maintain a sensible attitude when it comes to reclaiming cultural relics lost overseas. If our cultural relics are under high-level preservation and available to the whole mankind to the greatest extent, there is no need to reclaim them. After all, just as the international heritage concept advocates, cultural relics belong to all humanity.预测作文20. Should Enterprises Hold an Annual Meeting?1. 许多单位都喜欢在年底开年会2. 有人却并不赞成这么做3. 我的看法【范文】Should Enterprises Hold an Annual Meeting?Many companies tend to hold an annual meeting at the end of the year in recentyears. The organizers believe both the company and the employees will benefit a lot from it. An annual meeting, if held successfully, can help create a harmonious working atmosphere in the company.Some people, however, are against this practice. They regard it a big waste of money to rent the meeting hall, to pay for the hostess, to eat in luxurious restaurants and so on. Besides, it would contribute to a considerable portion of the financial expenditure of the company. In consequence, it would inevitably lower the amount of money that goes to the employees.In my view, the advantages of holding the annual meeting outweigh its disadvantages. Firstly, the employees can be refreshed after a whole year’s hard working. Secondly, the conference gives colleagues valuable chances to get a further understanding of each other. Moreover, a good annual meeting can help create a sense of belonging in the heart of the staff.预测作文21. Should Universities Lower Admission Requirements for Celebrities?1. 近年来很多大学降低标准招收名人学生，有人对此反对2. 也有人认为这很合理3. 你的看法【范文】Should Universities Lower Admission Requirements for Celebrities? Nowadays, it is not rare to learn that some universities have lowered their admission requirements for celebrity students. Some people object strongly to this admission pattern, holding that it damages the basic rule of fairness in education. In addition, they argue that it would be an insult to college education if a person academically unqualified was admitted.For others, however, this practice is reasonable. For one thing, they say, since a celebrity has made significant contributions to the society, it is understandable that a university lowers its admission requirements to reward the individual. For another, celebrity students can be positive role models for their fellow school mates. Many of the celebrities are self-assured, hardworking, and persevering and their stories of success can stimulate fellow students to follow their examples.In my view, it is a wise move for universities to lower their admission requirements for renowned people. On the part of universities, it will enhance the universities’reputation. In a word, bending the rules for the celebrities benefits the favored individual, the student body, and the university, so we see no reason to deny it.预测作文22. Does Technology Widen the Gap between the Poor and Rich?1. 有人认为科技扩大了贫富分化2. 有人认为科技缩小了贫富分化3. 你的看法【范文】Does Technology Widen the Gap between the Poor and Rich? People’s opinions vary greatly when it comes to whether technology widens or narrows the gap between the poor and rich. Some people think that technologies are widening the gap. The reason lies in the fact that poor people are less likely to access the advanced technologies, especially considering the high cost.Others, however, argue that technologies are indeed bridging the gap. Firstly, they say, the availability to the range of technology is making people’s life more efficient, thus ensuring them more time to do some other things, such as a part-time job. Secondly, in the so-called information age when advanced technologies are vital, once people have a sound knowledge of the technology, they can easily find a well-paid job.Personally, I tend to regard technology more as a blessing than a curse. Due to the highly developing technology, most people are given much more chances to be successful. For example, thanks to the popularization of the Internet, everyone can have access to the up-to-date information in both business field and scientific researches, which is vital for their further development.预测作文23. Spam Message1. 目前垃圾短信泛滥2. 这种现象产生的原因3. 如何解决这个问题【范文】Spam MessageWith the increasing use of cell phones, spam message has become a heated issue. According to a survey, on average, people receive about 40 pieces of spam message per month. Spam message may disturb, confuse, or even threaten people at any time. Generally, there are two reasons for the spam epidemic. On one hand, due to the fact that text message is a comparatively cheap channel, many companies take advantage of it to advertise their products or services. Whether people are willing to receive the message is neglected. On the other hand, operators holding lots of information on cell phone users sell the information and make money out of it.To solve the problem of spam message, relative authorities and professionals should make joint efforts. The government should set up laws to severely punish the illegal。

2010年12月英语四级写作话题预测(一)

2010年12月英语四级写作话题预测（1）Jobs for Graduates （就业难）1)大学生难找工作2)原因很多3)解决的办法SampleIt’s very hard for college graduates to find a job, of course harder to get an ideal job. In fact, ma ny factors contribute to the unfavorable situation.First, more and more students can go to college because of the being fast improved high education of China. As a result, there are more graduates every year. However, job vacancies don’t increase that fast. More people, less food, which is the exact description of the hard condition. Second, more and more people go on to pursue their master and doctor degree; more and more Chinese oversea students come back to China to hunt better working chances. It is sure that the competition is more and more f ierce. Third, because of the fast development of science, technology, economy, society and the interchan ge of different nations, all units have higher requirement of their employees, for example, stronger abilit y and higher degree.In addition to the factors above, there are still more which bring hardship for graduates to find job s. Nevertheless, how to solve the problem is more important. It is a good idea for the graduates to lea rn more knowledge with a higher degree and to practice and improve their capability of dealing with a ll kinds of situation, organization, having good terms with others and cooperative spirit. Besides, the go vernment should try to and encourage all units to create more job vacancies for the college graduates. Of course, the graduates should have a proper attitude towards various jobs, but not always pursue thos e with higher payment.（2）My View on Job-hopping（换工作）Outline: 1. 有些人喜欢始终从事一种工作，因为…….2.有些人喜欢经常换工作，因为…..3.我的看法People's opinions are always different when they talk about job-hopping. Those who never change t heir job throughout their life maintain that they have accumulated enough experience to work smoothly and efficiently, so what's the point in changing it and taking another job? They also firmly believe that anyone who wants to excel in his specialty has to work hard on the same post for years to acquire t he required skill and knowledge.However, many others hold just the opposite view. On the one hand, they believe that if the prese nt job can offer neither satisfactory working conditions nor future opportunities, they will not hesitate a moment to leave. On the other hand, they hold that life is but once and job-hopping can provide rich and exciting experiences.My own opinion is that job-hopping, in this fast-changing era of information, has become more tha n common and acceptable. If we want to keep pace with the times, we have to change for the faster, t he higher and the stronger. If life is a journey, we have nothing to regret so long as we put meaning into it. So why not make a change?（3）Choosing a Career （择业）Outline: 1. 择业是每个青年人都要面临的问题。

新东方四级作文：2010年12月英语四级作文范文（21篇）

新东⽅四级作⽂：2010年12⽉英语四级作⽂范⽂(21篇)　1. On Open Policy The open policy means that our country is open to investment, trade and technical and economic cooperation with other countries on the basis of equality and mutual benefit. The purpose of open policy is to acquire advanced technology, management skills to serve our socialist construction so as to promote the realization of the four modernizations. We must adhere to the open policy. Because economic relations between states today have become increasingly close, and no country can possibly advance behind close doors. Only in this way, can we gradually close the gap between our country and the developed countries. Through the implementation of policy, we can learn advanced technology and managerial expertise from abroad; make full use of the foreign capitals to set up great enterprises; absorb useful and healthy ideas and new knowledge of the modern civilization; and broaden our views and raise our level of competence. 2. The place of Science and Technology in Modern Life. Human life can not continue without science and technology. For many years, human society has developed with the advance of science and technology while the development of science and technology has in turn brought the process to mankind. So the life we are living now is more civilized than that of our fore fathers. The development of science and technology have brought about many changes in people's life. For example, the invention of television and space rocket have opened a new era for mankind. Through the use of TV people can hear the sound and learn the events happening thousands of miles away. Owing to the invention of spaceship and rocket, the dream of man's landing on the moon has now come true. Science and technology also play an important role in our socialist construction. We may say, our socialist construction is just like a skyscraper, while science and technology are its base. Without the base, the skyscraper can't be built. Therefore, we should try our best to contribute to the development of science and technology so as to provide a more solid base to build our country. 3. Importance of Education China, as a developing country, is determined to catch up with and even surpass the developed ones. I think that one of the best possible ways to do so is to give first priority(优先)to the development of culture, science and especially education. In modern times, when science and technology are making great progress, the education of the work force is of primary importance. Moreover, many of the success in advanced countries have demonstrated that a nation 's prosperity mainly depends on the quality of its labour force, namely those who have been well educated. In a developing country such as China, our investment in culture, education and science, and especially elementary education, must enjoy top priority. This is crucial(决定性的)for China to catch up with the developed nations in today's surging(汹涌的) waves of technological revolution. Otherwise, the gap between China and advanced countries will be widened rather than bridged. 4. Air Pollution Air pollution is one of the major problems of the modern world. A great deal of energy is needed to run the factories of modern industrial nations. Automobile, trains, planes and busses need energy, too. Nearly all of this energy is produced by burning fuels. The burning produces wastes, some of which remain in the air, causing air pollution. Scientists are finding ways to stop air pollution especially in big industrial areas and densely-populated cities. They are studying new ways of generating electricity that may be less damaging to the environment. In the meantime, many power plants are being modernized to give off less polluted material. Also, engineers try to design and locate new power plants to do minimum damage to the environment. However, it may be that we still have a long way to go before we have a "clean" world. Nearly all of the countries are trying hard to prevent and control air pollution. There indeed seems to be no end to tasks that environmentalists will be required to do. People will continually find new ways to control pollution. 5. Environmental Protection Today the quality of our natural environment has become an important issue. The world population is rising so quickly that the world has become too crowded. We are using up our natural resources and at the same time polluting our environment with dangerous chemicals. If we continue to do this, life on earth cannot survive. Concerned people have made some progress in environmental protection. Governments of many countries have established laws to protect the air, forests and sea resources and to stop environmental pollution. Still more measures should be taken to solve environmental problems. People should be further educated to recognize the importance of the problems, to use modern methods of birth control, to conserve(保存) our natural resources and recycle(再循环) our products. We are sure that we can have a better and cleaner place in the future. 6. Automobiles Automobiles, as a product of modern civilization, have been playing a vital part in the daily activities of human society.Industry needs automobiles for farming as well as transportation. Every day, automobiles drive people to and from work. On weekends automobiles take families for joyful outings. And during holiday seasons, automobiles fill the highways everywhere, even in remote areas. It could be said that the wheels of automobiles move society forward. But automobiles have also given rise to a series of problems. For example, cities are overcrowded with automobiles. They create a lot of noise and traffic accidents which disable(伤残) or kill many people each year. Worst of all perhaps is the air pollution caused by the exhaust gases produced by automobiles. Some of the gases are highly toxic(有毒的) and a serious health hazard. 7. Computer The computer is widely used in all fields of society. Today, wherever you go, you will find computers being used. For example, computers are used in universities, large corporations, and small offices, etc. It has even entered the homes of ordinary people. As it is able to store and process a large amount of information, the computer bring about great convenience and high efficiency to people of all walks of life. Computers can help people in different ways. For example, computer help scientists in analyzing data and doing complex calculation. For another example, computers are made use of by engineers in designing a plane, or a spaceship. Besides, computers may also play a great role in helping children with their lesson. Whatever you are doing, you many find computer a useful aid. However, the computer must be designed and instructed by man. What is more, it is true that computers can make decisions, but they need detailed instructions and programs prepared by humans to operate. Therefore, the computer can never replace the human brain. 8. Travelling It is exciting to visit different places. As you travel, you will see beautiful sceneries typical of the region. Besides, you can meet and make friends with people of different colors and races. Finally, you can get to know the customs and living habits of the local people. Today people are so fond of travelling that tourism has become one of the faster growing industries in most countries. The main reason why people travel is, perhaps, for pleasure. For example, having worked hard throughout the weekdays, people will find a widened trip to the nearby mountains or beaches a real relaxation. For another example, spending an annual holiday travelling abroad is an especially satisfying experience for those who do not have much of an opportunity to be away from their homelands. When people return from their travel, they will generally feel fresh and energetic, ready to work harder. Travelling is also one of the best means for learning. You may have read or heard about something but you can never get an accurate picture of it until you see it for yourself. Seeing is believing. Furthermore, if you area careful observer, you can learn much during your travel about the geography, biology, and history of the places you visit. No matter how well educated you are, there is always a lot for you to learn through travelling. The knowledge acquired from travel, as you will have found in your life, is no less valuable than that from any influential reference book. 9. The World Population Explosion The human race has experienced a consistent increase in population since the beginning of its history. Famine and disease have done little to offset(抵消)this steady increase. Too many people are added annually to the population of the world. So both the causes of population increase and the results of having more people are worth careful study. Culture evolution is the major factor responsible for population increase. Early in human development, people invented tools to hunt animals. Later they built shelters to protect themselves. Step by step, they made life easier. As a result, fewer died from natural forces, such as harsh climate and disease. In the past, when population grew, there was unexplored territory to inhabit. But now, almost all the habitable land has been explored. The world's population may reach 8.7 billion in 2033. It is clear that world population is a serious issue that needs careful attention. Human beings are unique to solve problems through cultural evolution.(发展) Facing the world population explosion in the near future. We must carry out the birth control program in order to save the mankind and save the world.　10. Opening-door Policy is the Only Way to Make China StrongModern Chinese history leads us to the conclusion that socialism, not capitalism is best for China. But how a socialist China should look at capitalism and more importantly, make use of the better side of capitalism for its own advantage is of vital(⾄关) importance to the country.。

Photos Offer First Glimpse of Live Deep-Sea GiantLike something straight out of a Jules Verne novel, an enormous tentacle creature looms out of the inky blackness ofthe deep Pacific waters.But this isn't science fiction. A set of extraordinary images captured by Japanese scientists mark the first-ever record of a live giant squid (Architeuthis) in the wild.The animal—which measures roughly 25 feet (8 meters) long—was photographed 2,950 feet (900 meters) beneath the North Pacific Ocean. Japanese scientists attracted the squid toward cameras attached to a baited fishing line.The scientists say they snapped more than 500 images of the massive cephalopod before it broke free after snagging itself on a hook. They also recovered one of the giant squid's two longest tentacles, which severed during its struggle.The photo sequence, taken off Japan's Ogasawara Islands in September 2004, shows the squid homing in on the baited line and enveloping it in "a ball of tentacles."Tsunemi Kubodera of the National Science Museum in Tokyo and Kyoichi Mori of the Ogasawara Whale Watching Association report their observations this week in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B."Architeuthis appears to be a much more active predator than previously suspected, using its elongated feeding tentacles to strike and tangle prey," the researchers write.They add that the squid was found feeding at depths where no light penetrates even during the day.Giant BreakthroughDespite people's fascination with this deep-sea behemoth, the giant squid's life and habits have remained largely a mystery. The little information known has been mostly based on dead and dying specimens that were caught by commercial fishing boats or washed ashore.The mysterious creature has inspired countless sea monster tales and has been the subject of various scientific expeditions.Since the mid 1990s there have been a number of research trips in search of giant squid. Cameras attached to deep-diving subs or sperm whales have been used to try to capture the elusive animals on film, but without success.The Japanese researchers used sperm whales as guides to help them pinpoint likely giant squid haunts. Over the years whalers have reported finding a high number of large squid beaks in the mammals' stomachs, pegging sperm whales as primary predators of large squid.The images are generating considerable excitement among squid experts."I think it's wonderful that we've finally got a picture of a living giant squid," said Richard Ellis, a research associate at the American Museum of Natural History in New York and author of The Search for the Giant Squid."I thought it would only be a matter of time before someone got images of Architeuthis," he added."After all, it's not an endangered species, not even all that rare, and it's one of the largest of all invertebrates. So the Japanese film finaly breaks through and renders the statement 'nobody has ever seen a living giant squid' inoperative."Squid expert Martin Collins of the British Antarctic Survey based in Cambridge, England, says the new images are a "fantastic" achievement.The marine biologist says he was skeptical that a dedicated giant squid hunt would succeed. He thought the first wild sighting would probably come by accident."Fair play to these guys who've made the effort, gone outthere and looked in what they thought was a good area, and found it," he said.Hunting for CluesCollins is especially interested in clues the images might provide to the way giant squid swim and hunt in the deep ocean."Seeing the animals on film gives you a tremendous insight into how they live down there," he said. "It shows they are pretty active animals, and that answers a big question that's been out there for some time."Collins says there were two competing schools of thought among giant squid experts."One was the idea that [giant squid] were fairly inactive and just drifted around, dangling their tentacles below them like fishing lures to catch what came by," he said."The other theory was that they were actually quite active. This new evidence supports this, suggesting they are active predators which can move reasonably quickly.""The efforts the squid went to untangle itself [from the baited fishing line] also shows they are capable of quite strong and rapid movement," he added.The study team reports that the severed tentacle repeatedly gripped the boat deck and crew after it was hauled aboard. The squid's tentacles are armed with suckers, each ringed with tiny teeth to help snare prey.Measuring 18 feet (5.5 meters) long, analysis of the tentacle confirmed it came from a giant squid and allowed the researchers to estimate the total length of the animal.But the researchers caution that their data assume the tentacle was severed at it base. If not, the squid may have been considerably larger. The longest giant squid on record measured59 feet (18 meters), including its two elongated tentacles.Shedding Light on Giant SquidGiant squid, along with their close cousins colossal squid (Mesonychoteuthis), have thelargest eyes of any animal."Giant squid do have particularly large eyes, which would suggest vision is important to them. Having a large eye isn't unusual in deep-sea animals-you see it quite often in fish."The fact that the animal caught on film was swimming in total darkness suggests the species detects prey using alternative light sources. "The only light down there is likely to be light produced by other animals," said Collins of the British Antarctic Survey.The Japanese team thinks that research techniques similar to their own could be used to bring about more close encounters with giant squid. Ellis of the American Museum of Natural History agrees."I'm sure we can learn a lot from an analysis of these images," he said. "And now that we have an idea of where to look for [the squid], we will undoubtedly get more pictures."1. The passage talks mainly about the studying of a live giant squid by American scientists.2. The giant squid was photographed 2,950 feet beneath the North Pacific Ocean.3. The observations by Tsunemi Kubodera and Kyoichi Mori was reported in the journal Proceedings of Royal Society B.4.

Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the staements in the fewestpossible words. Write your answers in the spaces provided on Answer Sheet 2.Culture shock is so named because of the effect it has on people when they enter a new culture. Experts have been interested in these effects and have agreed on five basic stages of culture shock. These stages are general and should only be used as a reference. Not every individual will go through each stage, and one stage may last longer than another for different individuals.The hardest thing for most travelers to deal with is the emotional "roller coaster" they seem to be riding. One moment they feel very positive toward the new culture, and the next moment very negative. It seems common that international visitors and immigrants vacillate (犹豫不定)between loving and hating a new country. Feelings of separation and alienation can be intensified if they do not have a sense of fitting in or belonging.Fatigue is another problem people face when entering a new culture. There can be a sense of a greater need for sleep. This is due not only to physical tiredness, but also to mental fatigue. This mental fatigue comes from straining to comprehend the language, and coping with new situations.The impact of culture shock can vary from person to person. There can be significant differences because some people maybe better prepared to enter a new culture. Four factors which play into these are personality, language ability, length of stay, and the emotional support received.It is logical to think that when people are deprived of their familiar surroundings they will feel disoriented. One solution some have found is to bring a few small reminders of home. Pictures, wall hangings, favorite utensils, and keepsakes(纪念品)are all good candidates to make things feel more familiar. Another helpful activity is to establish little routines that become familiar over time. Even better is fitting things that were part of the regular routine back in the home country into the routine established in the new culture. This will make people feel more at home.47. According to the 1st paragraph, experts have interests in ________________.48. Emotional "roller coaster" refers to ________________.49. When entering a new culture, the problems people face are ________________.50. Coping with new situations may result in ________________.51. According to the author, the more effective way to solve "cultural shock" is ________________.Section BDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked [A], [B], [C] and [C]. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 52 to 56 are based on the following passage.Sixteen years ago, Eileen Doyle's husband, an engineer, tookhis four children up for an early morning cup of tea, packed a small case and was never seen or heard of again. Eileen was astonished and in a state of despair. They had been a happy family and, as far as she knew, there had been nothing wrong with their marriage.Every day of the year, a small group of men and women quietly pack a few belongings and without so much as a note or a good-bye close the front door for the last time, leaving their debts, their worries and their confused families behind them.Last year, more than 1,200 men and nearly as many women were reported missing from home—the highest in 15 years. Many did return home within a year, but others rejected the past completely and are now living a new life somewhere under a different identity.To those left behind this form of desertion is a terrible blow to their pride and self-confidence. Even the finality of death might be preferable. At least it does not imply rejection or failure. Worse than that, people can be left with an unfinished marriage, not knowing whether they will have to wait seven years before they are free to start a fresh life.Clinical psychologist Paul Brown believes most departures of this kind to be well planned rather than impulsive. "It's typical of the kind of personality which seems able to ignore other people's pain and difficulties. Running away, like killing yourself, is a highly aggressive act. By creating an absence the people left behind feel guilty, upset and empty."The Salvation Army's Investigation Department has a 70 percent success rate in tracking missing people down. According to Lt. Co. Bramwell Pratt, head of the department, men and women run away for very different reasons though lack ofcommunication is often the biggest motive. "The things that disturb a man's personality are problems like being tied up in debt or serious worries about work. And some women make impossible demands on their husbands. Women usually leave for more obvious reasons but fear is at the root of it. Men are more often prepared to give their marriage another try than women, but we are aware that, for some wives, it would be a total impossibility to return after the way they've been treated."52. When her husband left home, Eileen Doyle ________ .[A] could not forgive him for taking the children [C] could not understand why[B] had been expecting it to happen for some time [D] blamed herself for what had happened53. Most people who leave their families behind them ________.[A] do so without warning [C] come back immediately[B] do so because of their debts [D] change their names54. The man or woman left behind usually ________.[A] admits responsibility for the situation[B] wishes the person who has left were dead[C] feels embarrassed and useless[D] will have no legal marriage life for seven years55. Paul Brown regards leaving home in such circumstances as ________.[A] an act of despair [C] the result of a sudden decision[B] an act of selfishness [D] the result of the enormous sense of guilt56. The Salvation Army believes that _________.[A] most men run away because of the impossible demands of their wives[B] men's reasons are more understandable than women's[C] some women never give their men another chance[D] women are often afraid to start marriage againPassage TwoQuestions 57 to 61 are based in the following passage.The English have the reputation of being very different from all other nationalities. It is claimed that living on an island separated from the rest of Europe has much to do with it. Whatever the reasons, it may be fairly stated that the Englishman has developed some attitudes and habits distinguishing him from other nationalities.Broadly speaking, the Englishman is a quiet, shy, and reserved person among people he knows well. Before strangers he often seems inhibited, even embarrassed. You have only to witness a railway compartment any morning or evening to see the truth. Serious-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or dozing(打盹)in a corner, and no one speaks. An English wit once suggested to overseas visitors, "On entering a railway compartment shake hands with all the passengers." Needless to say, he was not being serious. There is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior, which, if broken, makes the person immediately the object of suspicion.It is well known that the English seldom show openly extremes of enthusiasm, emotion etc. Of course, an Englishman feels no less than any other nationality. Imagine a man commenting on the great beauty of a young girl. A man of more emotional temperament might describe her as "a marvelous jewel", while the Englishman will flatly state "Um, she's all right." An Englishman may recommend a highly successful and enjoyable film to friends by commenting, "It's not bad." Theoverseas visitors must not be disappointed by this apparent lack of interest. They must realize that "all right", "not bad" are very often used with the sense of "first class", "excellent". This special use of language is particularly common in English.57. One explanation for the different character of English people is that ________.[A] they are geographically isolated from the European continent[B] they have nothing to do with the other Europeans[C] they like to keep quiet among their acquaintances[D] they tend to be reserved by nature58. The word "inhibited" (Line 2, Para. 2) in this passage probably means ________ .[A] unable to have good manners [C] able to act properly[B] unable to express and relax freely [D] able to talk freely59. According to the passage, on entering a railway compartment, an overseas visitor is expected to ________ .[A] inquire about the code of behavior in the train [C] shake hands with the person he knows[B] shake hands with all the passengers [D] behave like an Englishman60. The English way of commenting on something or somebody suggests that ________.[A] the English are modest in most circumstances[B] the English feel no less than any other nationality[C] the English tend to display less emotion than they feel[D] the English don't take a strong interest in making comment61. What does the passage mainly discuss?[A] The differences between the English and the otherEuropeans.[B] The different character of the Englishman and its reason.[C] The reasons for English people's shyness.[D] The code of behavior of the nationalities in Europe.Part V Cloze (15 minutes)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked [A], [B], [C] and [D] on the right side of the paper. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage. Then mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the center.To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor: you must be able to 62 theattention and interest of your students: you must be a 63 speaker, with a good, strong, 64 voice which is fully under your control: and you must be able to 65 what you are teaching in order to make its meaning clear. 66 a good teacher and you will see that he does not sit still 67 his class: he stands the whole time when he is teaching; he walks about, using his 68 , hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will 69 the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always 70 according to what he is 71 about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn't 72 that he will indeed be able to act 73 on the stage, for there are very important 74 between the teacher's work and the actor's. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart' he has to repeat exactly the 75 words each time he plays a certain part; 76 his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually 77 beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem 78 on the stage.A good teacher 79 in quite a different way. His students take an active part in his 80 : they ask and answer questions; they obey orders; and if they don't understand something, they will say so. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of his students. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must 81 it as he goes along.62. [A] pay [B] hold [C] give [D] know63.

They communicate with each other through the electric line. They are becoming so dependent on telephones that some people say that one day phones will kill letter writing. But I don't think it is the case.It is true that communicating by letters is not as convenient as by telephone. However, letter writing makes people think clearly. When a person writes, he must organize his thoughts and express his ideas and feelings more logically. In addition, letters give you a chance to read them again. Isn't it exciting to receive a letter from your parents or your friends? Isn't it pleasant to red the letter again and to feel again the excitement and the pleasantness?So if you have time, write a letter right now, and you will certainly give your friends and your family a pleasant surprise.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)。

Low-carbon life means a kind of lifestyle in which people do their best to reduce energy consumption and carbon greenhouse gas emissions.It is of vital importance for the whole world to practice the low-carbon lifestyle.

Secondly, in order to protect our environment from serious greenhouse effect, we need a low-carbon emission. It is low-carbon life that enables our next generations to live a better and superior life.What we should bear in mind is that the earth is common home.

(185words)2.世博主题：Better City, Better Life(太长，用时需改短)Nowadays, with the fast development of economy of the world, many cities become bigger and bigger and many modern cities are appearing. Thus, we face the complex problem: Urbanization. Urbanization has been a subject of heated discussion for a long time. Some people are in favor, while others are opposed.In my opinion, urbanization benefits human beings rather than do harm to them.Two reasons may account for my conclusion.Firstly, urbanization enriches our life.We can imagine what will happen without convenient traffic system, without big department stores, without KTVs and many other entertainments? To some extent, it is impossible for human beings to live in this world. Urbanization make it possible for us to enjoy our life more than before, Also, urbanization quicken the pace of science, especially in the communication field, in the early time, if we want to connect with our family members or friends, the only way we can choose is writing letters. But urbanization changed this situation, we can talk with the friends in the foreign countries with our any difficulties through the Internet, we gain whatever information we need on the internet. These conveniences are brought by the urbanization.Secondly, urbanization also raise our country economy.As we all know, the policy of Reform and Opening give our country a golden opportunity to develop our economy, we have a direct feeling about the dramatic increasing of our living standard, many productions that we cannot afford in the past time can be owned in today. This phenomenon proves that urbanization benefits our life basically. With the fast step of urbanization, many job opportunities are supplied in the occupation market which makes many rural migrant workers get a solid work in the urban area. They also contribute to the economicdevelopment in the urban area. These prosperities are definitely brought by the urbanization.I live in Shanghai, and it is a typical big city in China. I found that we also have many negative sides of urbanization. For instance, we can talk to the friends thousands miles away, but we don’t know our neighbors in the high-rises; many migrant workers do not enjoy the same profits and rights as the permanent unban residents and this will make their living without and insurance system.But we don’t need to be so pessimistic of the situation at hand. It is evident that the advantages of urbanization outweigh the disadvantages. What we should do is to remain the positive side , meanwhile to conquer the negative side. Our government will also introduce many effective policies to narrow this contradictory. So we have enough reasons to believe the situation will become better and better so that we can reach our aim ”better city, better life ” !.3. 王长喜预测作文：校园安全问题Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic Campus Security.

You should write at least 120 words folllowing theoutline given below.1. 目前不少父母为孩子包办一切2. 为了让孩子独立, 父母应该……How Should Parents Help Children to Be Independent?范文1: Today in China, many families have only one child. So the children usually doted upon by all family members. Gradually some of them get used to depending on their parents and family members, as a result they lack the ability to face their lives by themselves.There are some ways to help children to be independent. First, the child should have a chance to see the world around him individually to understand that there are various people and competitions in their lives, and learn to find his right position in the society only by individual efforts. Second, it is impossible to ask a child not to depend on parents at once.The parents may give the child enough help and space to make him feel comfortable. A child needs help from their families. Because without any help, the child may lose his faith. Thirdly, parents can help their children make their own decisions, which can challenge his ability to deal with problems. A child should be praised when he is successful or encouraged when he fails.To be independent is vital for the children, because no parents can go with their children for the whole life. Only an independent person can live and enjoy a full and meaningful life.范文2：Nowadays, more and more parents indulge their children too much, showing too much love to them. The parents get used to make an arrangement of everything for their children. As result,many adult children will not deal with things by themselves but depend on their parents strongly.How should parents help children to be independent? On the one hand, parents should try to tell the children the importance of independence at an early age. If the children have no awareness early, how can we expect them to achieve independence later. On the other hand, let the children always have a try by themselves before asking for help. Let them know that independent thinking is an absolute necessity in their life.Helping children towards independence will always be our businesses.范文3：Nowadays, the number of single-child family is increasingly growing under the Family Policy. It’s not surpring that the child, viewed as the apple of the parents’ eye, get so much attention that there is a lack of independence in the life. While the parents are eager to make a fuss over their child, they must be aware that it is their too much love that make the children’s inability to comfront the difficulties from the life.It is necessary for parents to provide love for their child in a right way. First，they are supposed not to pray for an easy life for their child. Children should be exposed to the real world, and with parents’ help they will make it clear that life is filled with ups and downs. Second, parents do as a leader to give children a right direction and other things are left to children. Last but not least, parents’ approval of right decision from children and encouragement to children when they fail is the strength of the growth for children. Sharing children’s success with them and helping them when necessary is more vital than too much love.If parents can act as they realize the importance of helpingtheir children as independent as much , they will find a real short- cut to a happy life for their children. 相关推荐：。

Part ⅠWriting【写作思路】本文是一篇关于代沟的议论文。

从代沟的现象开始讨论，接着提出代沟产生的家庭原因以及社会原因。

【参考范文】Generation GapGeneration gap seems a hot topic between the old and the young. Parents complain that children don’t show them proper respect and obedience, while children complain that their parents don t understand them at all. Often they discover that they have very little in common.One cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own life. In traditional societies, children lived in the same area as their parents, married people their parents knew and approved of, and often continued the family occupation.In our society, people often move out of the home at an early age, marry or live with people their parents have never met, and choose occupations that are rather different. Parents often expect their children to be better than them. However, these ambitions for their children are another cause of the division between them.Finally, the speed of change in our society is another cause of it. In the traditional culture, people are valued for their wisdom, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date.No doubt, the generation gap will continue to be a feature of our life. Its causes are rooted in the freedoms and opportunities of our society, and in the rapid pace at which society changes.Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension(Skimming and Scanning)原文精译动物的运动除了缺少剧情音乐之外，这看上去就像《大白鲨》影片中的一个场景：一条巨大的鲨鱼在水中慢慢地游着，尾巴就像钟摆一样来回地摆动。

2010年12月大学英语四级作文范文（1）How Should Parents Help Students to Be Independent1、目前不少父母为孩子包办一切2、为了让孩子独立，父母应该……Nowadays, there is a popular phenomenon that more and more parents are doing all things for their children. For example, they will offer them everything like food or clothes at home. They even send them to school and arrange for everything at dorm for them. As a result, their children can do nothing by themselves.About this, there are many factors accountable for the phenomenon. On one hand, there is only one child in many families, so most parents regard them as their “Adam’s Apple”. So, they would try all best to satisfy their needs. On the other hand, the whole society, including schools are paying more attention to study rather than independent education.As parents, they should do their best to encourage their children’s independence. For one thing, they should allow their children to do those things that they can manage themselves. For instance, washing, making the bed or making decisions. For another, students themselves should develop an independent concept that they are mature enough to do things freely since they have grown up. When they face some difficult situations, they should think by themselves rather than ask parents to do whatever for them. Lastly, the school or society should also advocate a kind of independent spirit that to be independent is vital for young people to grow up and to be successful in the future.2010年12月大学英语四级作文范文（2）In recent years, floods of parents are willing to make arrangements and decisions for their children. And there’s no denying that majority of children take their parents’ concerns for granted. According to statistics, over 80% of parents still accompany their children to the universities, even the examinations. In this essay, I will discuss the measures that should be taken to help students be independent and offer my view on it.First and foremost, parents should abandon the stereotyped role in Chinese parenting and render their children free to the fascinating world. Besides, we, the children themselves, should manage our own daily stuffs. Inaddition, the society should set up more courses and camps for children to cultivate their capability to be independent.As far as I’m concerned, the all-covering parenting method may give rise to severe consequences, and a spoiled child won’t be competitive in this world full of the fierce competitions. Thus, the whole society should attach great importance to this problem and make our contribution to avoid this.2010年12月大学英语四级作文范文（3）How Should Parents Help Children to be IndependentNowadays, there is a growing concern over such a phenomenon, that is, some parents take care of almost everything concerned with their children, including study, work, marriage. Some parents believe that this is love, however, it is only to destroy children’s independence thoroughly.For the future of the next generation, more efforts should be made by parents to help their children to be independent. The fundamental one is to cultivate the awareness, namely, the importance and necessity of being independent, which is supposed to begin from childhood. Children should be taught that no one can be stronger and more helpful than themselves in this world.The quality of independence is so indispensable for us that parents had better act as a tutor, not a dictator. And only with parent’s trust, can the next generation accumulate confidence step by step.2010年12月大学英语四级作文范文（4）How should parents help children to be independent?Nowadays, there’s an increasing number of household in China that has an only one child. Most of parents Love and care for children so much that children has less chances to deal with problems by themselves. Consequently, children get used to depending on their parents in everything and lack of ability to solve problems independently, which is bad for their growing.There are some effective ways for parents to help their children be independent. To start with, parents should give their children more chances to experience the world and life around them. Thus their children can enhance the capability to overcome the difficulties and handle problems independently. In addition, parents should offer enough assistance when their children need some instructions and advices. In this way, they depend on their parents in a right way and can solve problems independently when they face the same one next time. Last but not least, parents should allow their children to make decisions independently. Children would improve the ability to dealwith the problems they are confronted with in their life.From the above discussion, I strongly believe that parent should help their children be independent by instructing them in a proper way rather than planning and considering everything for them. It’s children who decide their future and fate, so it would be beneficial for them to live independently with some proper instructions of their parents.2010年12月大学英语四级作文范文（5）In recent years, floods of parents are willing to make arrangements and decisions for their children.
