2001年考研英语一作文范文

2001年考研英语一作文范文In the year 2001, the postgraduate entrance examinationin China introduced an English composition task that required candidates to articulate their views on a specific topic. The essay prompt typically involved a social issue, a personal experience, or a hypothetical scenario that candidates needed to address.The first paragraph should set the tone by introducing the topic and providing a brief overview of the essay's main points. For instance:"The rapid development of technology has ushered in an era of unprecedented connectivity, yet it has also raised concerns about the erosion of privacy and the digital divide."Following paragraphs should delve into the specifics of the topic, providing examples and arguments to support the thesis statement. For example:"One of the most significant impacts of technology on society is the way it has transformed communication. Instant messaging and social media platforms have made it possible to stay in touch with friends and family across the globe.""However, this connectivity comes at a cost. The widespread use of smartphones and the internet has led to anincrease in cybercrime, with personal data being compromised and privacy invaded on a daily basis.""Moreover, the digital divide has become a pressing issue, as those with access to technology enjoy numerous benefits, while the less fortunate are left behind, exacerbating social inequalities."In the penultimate paragraph, the essay should address potential solutions or the implications of the situation. For example:"To mitigate these issues, it is essential to implement robust cybersecurity measures and to promote digital literacy among the population. Additionally, efforts should be made to bridge the digital divide by providing affordable access to technology in underprivileged areas."Finally, the conclusion should succinctly summarize the main points and leave the reader with a lasting impression of the author's stance. For example:"In conclusion, while the advancements in technology have undoubtedly enriched our lives, it is imperative that we remain vigilant about the challenges it presents. A balanced approach to embracing technology's benefits while addressingits drawbacks is the key to a harmonious future."。

(40 points)Text 1Of all the changes that have taken place in English-language newspapers during the past quarter-century, perhaps the most far-reaching has been the inexorable decline in the scope and seriousness of their arts coverage.It is difficult to the point of impossibility for the average reader under the age of forty to imagine a time when high-quality arts criticism could be found in most big-city newspapers. Yet a considerable number of the most significant collections of criticism published in the 20th century consisted in large part of newspaper reviews. To read such books today is to marvel at the fact that their learned contents were once deemed suitable for publication in general-circulation dailies.We are even farther removed from the unfocused newspaper reviews published in England between the turn of the 20th century and the eve of World War II, at a time when newsprint was dirt-cheap and stylish arts criticism was considered an ornament to the publications in which it appeared. In those far-off days, it was taken for granted that the critics of major papers would write in detail and at length about the events they covered. Theirs was a serious business, and even those reviewers who wore their learning lightly, like George Bernard Shaw and Ernest Newman, could be trusted to know what they were about. These men believed in journalism as a calling, and were proud to be published in the daily press. “So few authors have brains enough or literary gift enough to keep their own end up in journalism,” Newman wrote, “that I am tempted to define ‘journalism’ as ‘a term of contempt applied by writers who are not read to writers who are.’”Unfortunately, these critics are virtually forgotten. Neville Cardus, who wrote for the Manchester Guardian from 1917 until shortly before his death in 1975, is now known solely as a writer of essays on the game of cricket. During his lifetime, though, he was also one of England’s foremost classical-music critics, a stylist so widely admired that his Autobiography (1947) became a best-seller. He was knighted in 1967, the first music critic to be so honored. Yet only one of his books is now in print, and his vast body of writings on music is unknown save to specialists.Is there any chance that Cardus’s criticism will enjoy a revival? The prospect seems remote. Journalistic tastes had changed long before his death, and postmodern readers have little use for the richly upholstered Vicwardian prose in which he specialized. Moreover, the amateur tradition in music criticism has been in headlong retreat.21. It is indicated in Paragraphs 1 and 2 that[A] arts criticism has disappeared from big-city newspapers.[B] English-language newspapers used to carry more arts reviews.[C] high-quality newspapers retain a large body of readers.[D] young readers doubt the suitability of criticism on dailies.22. Newspaper reviews in England before World War II were characterized by[A] free themes.[B] casual style.[C] elaborate layout.[D] radical viewpoints.23. Which of the following would Shaw and Newman most probably agree on?[A] It is writers' duty to fulfill journalistic goals.[B] It is contemptible for writers to be journalists.[C] Writers are likely to be tempted into journalism.[D] Not all writers are capable of journalistic writing.24. What can be learned about Cardus according to the last two paragraphs?[A] His music criticism may not appeal to readers today.[B] His reputation as a music critic has long been in dispute.[C] His style caters largely to modern specialists.[D] His writings fail to follow the amateur tradition.25. What would be the best title for the text?[A] Newspapers of the Good Old Days[B] The Lost Horizon in Newspapers[C] Mournful Decline of Journalism[D] Prominent Critics in MemoryText 2Over the past decade, thousands of patents have been granted for what are called business methods. received one for its "one-click" online payment system. Merrill Lynch got legal protection for an asset allocation strategy. One inventor patented a technique for lifting a box.Now the nation's top patent court appears completely ready to scale back on business-method patents, which have been controversial ever since they were first authorized 10 years ago. In a move that has intellectual-property lawyers abuzz the U.S. court of Appeals for the federal circuit said it would use a particular case to conduct a broad review of business-method patents. In re Bilski, as the case is known , is "a very big deal", says Dennis D. Crouch of the University of Missouri School of law. It "has the potential to eliminate an entire class of patents."Curbs on business-method claims would be a dramatic about-face, because it was the federal circuit itself that introduced such patents with is 1998 decision in the so-called state Street Bank case, approving a patent on a way of pooling mutual-fundassets. That ruling produced an explosion in business-method patent filings, initially by emerging internet companies trying to stake out exclusive rights to specific types of online transactions. Later, move established companies raced to add such patents to their files, if only as a defensive move against rivals that might beat them to the punch. In 2005, IBM noted in a court filing that it had been issued more than 300 business-method patents despite the fact that it questioned the legal basis for granting them. Similarly, some Wall Street investment films armed themselves with patents for financial products, even as they took positions in court cases opposing the practice.The Bilski case involves a claimed patent on a method for hedging risk in the energy market. The Federal circuit issued an unusual order stating that the case would be heard by all 12 of the court's judges, rather than a typical panel of three, and that one issue it wants to evaluate is whether it should "reconsider" its state street Bank ruling.The Federal Circuit's action comes in the wake of a series of recent decisions by the supreme Court that has narrowed the scope of protections for patent holders. Last April, for example the justices signaled that too many patents were being upheld for "inventions" that are obvious. The judges on the Federal circuit are "reacting to the anti-patent trend at the Supreme Court", says Harold C. Wegner, a patent attorney and professor at George Washington University Law School.26. Business-method patents have recently aroused concern because of[A] their limited value to business[B] their connection with asset allocation[C] the possible restriction on their granting[D] the controversy over authorization27. Which of the following is true of the Bilski case?[A] Its ruling complies with the court decisions[B] It involves a very big business transaction[C] It has been dismissed by the Federal Circuit[D] It may change the legal practices in the U.S.28. The word "about-face" (Line 1, Para 3) most probably means[A] loss of good will[B] increase of hostility[C] change of attitude[D] enhancement of dignity29. We learn from the last two paragraphs that business-method patents[A] are immune to legal challenges[B] are often unnecessarily issued[C] lower the esteem for patent holders[D] increase the incidence of risks30. Which of the following would be the subject of the text?[A] A looming threat to business-method patents[B] Protection for business-method patent holders[C] A legal case regarding business-method patents[D] A prevailing trend against business-method patentsText 3In his book The Tipping Point, Malcolm Gladwell argues that social epidemics are driven in large part by the acting of a tiny minority of special individuals, often called influentials, who are unusually informed, persuasive, or well-connected. The idea is intuitively compelling, but it doesn't explain how ideas actually spread.The supposed importance of influentials derives from a plausible sounding but largely untested theory called the "two step flow of communication": Information flows from the media to the influentials and from them to everyone else. Marketers have embraced the two-step flow because it suggests that if they can just find and influence the influentials, those selected people will do most of the work for them. The theory also seems to explain the sudden and unexpected popularity of certain looks, brands, or neighborhoods. In many such cases, a cursory search for causes finds that some small group of people was wearing, promoting, or developing whatever it is before anyone else paid attention. Anecdotal evidence of this kind fits nicely with the idea that only certain special people can drive trendsIn their recent work, however, some researchers have come up with the finding that influentials have far less impact on social epidemics than is generally supposed. In fact, they don't seem to be required of all.The researchers' argument stems from a simple observing about social influence, with the exception of a few celebrities like Oprah Winfrey—whose outsize presence is primarily a function of media, not interpersonal, influence—even the most influential members of a population simply don't interact with that many others. Yet it is precisely these non-celebrity influentials who, according to the two-step-flow theory, are supposed to drive social epidemics by influencing their friends and colleagues directly. For a social epidemic to occur, however, each person so affected, must then influence his or her own acquaintances, who must in turn influence theirs, and so on; and just how many others pay attention to each of these people has little to do with the initial influential. If people in the network just two degrees removed from the initial influential prove resistant, for example from the initial influential prove resistant, for example the cascade of change won't propagate very far or affect many people.Building on the basic truth about interpersonal influence, the researchers studiedthe dynamics of populations manipulating a number of variables relating of populations, manipulating a number of variables relating to people's ability to influence others and their tendency to be influenced. Our work shows that the principal requirement for what we call "global cascades"– the widespread propagation of influence through networks – is the presence not of a few influentials but, rather, of a critical mass of easily influenced people, each of whom adopts, say, a look or a brand after being exposed to a single adopting neighbor. Regardless of how influential an individual is locally, he or she can exert global influence only if this critical mass is available to propagate a chain reaction.31. By citing the book The Tipping Point, the author intends to[A] analyze the consequences of social epidemics[B] discuss influentials' function in spreading ideas[C] exemplify people's intuitive response to social epidemics[D] describe the essential characteristics of influentials.32. The author suggests that the "two-step-flow theory"[A] serves as a solution to marketing problems[B] has helped explain certain prevalent trends[C] has won support from influentials[D] requires solid evidence for its validity33. What the researchers have observed recently shows that[A] the power of influence goes with social interactions[B] interpersonal links can be enhanced through the media[C] influentials have more channels to reach the public[D] most celebrities enjoy wide media attention34. The underlined phrase "these people" in paragraph 4 refers to the ones who[A] stay outside the network of social influence[B] have little contact with the source of influence[C] are influenced and then influence others[D] are influenced by the initial influential35. what is the essential element in the dynamics of social influence?[A] The eagerness to be accepted[B] The impulse to influence others[C] The readiness to be influenced[D] The inclination to rely on othersText 4Bankers have been blaming themselves for their troubles in public. Behind the scenes, they have been taking aim at someone else: the accounting standard-setters. Their rules, moan the banks, have forced them to report enormous losses, and it's just not fair. These rules say they must value some assets at the price a third party would pay, not the price managers and regulators would like them to fetch.Unfortunately, banks' lobbying now seems to be working. The details may be unknowable, but the independence of standard-setters, essential to the proper functioning of capital markets, is being compromised. And, unless banks carry toxic assets at prices that attract buyers, reviving the banking system will be difficult.After a bruising encounter with Congress, America's Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) rushed through rule changes. These gave banks more freedom to use models to value illiquid assets and more flexibility in recognizing losses on long-term assets in their income statement. Bob Herz, the FASB's chairman, cried out against those who "question our motives." Yet bank shares rose and the changes enhance what one lobby group politely calls "the use of judgment by management."European ministers instantly demanded that the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) do likewise. The IASB says it does not want to act without overall planning, but the pressure to fold when it completes it reconstruction of rules later this year is strong. Charlie McCreevy, a European commissioner, warned the IASB that it did "not live in a political vacuum" but "in the real word" and that Europe could yet develop different rules.It was banks that were on the wrong planet, with accounts that vastly overvalued assets. Today they argue that market prices overstate losses, because they largely reflect the temporary illiquidity of markets, not the likely extent of bad debts. The truth will not be known for years. But bank's shares trade below their book value, suggesting that investors are skeptical. And dead markets partly reflect the paralysis of banks which will not sell assets for fear of booking losses, yet are reluctant to buy all those supposed bargains.To get the system working again, losses must be recognized and dealt with. America's new plan to buy up toxic assets will not work unless banks mark assets to levels which buyers find attractive. Successful markets require independent and even combative standard-setters. The FASB and IASB have been exactly that, cleaning up rules on stock options and pensions, for example, against hostility from special interests. But by giving in to critics now they are inviting pressure to make more concessions.36. Bankers complained that they were forced to[A] follow unfavorable asset evaluation rules[B] collect payments from third parties[C] cooperate with the price managers[D] reevaluate some of their assets.37. According to the author , the rule changes of the FASB may result in[A] the diminishing role of management[B] the revival of the banking system[C] the banks' long-term asset losses[D] the weakening of its independence38. According to Paragraph 4, McCreevy objects to the IASB's attempt to[A] keep away from political influences.[B] evade the pressure from their peers.[C] act on their own in rule-setting.[D] take gradual measures in reform.39. The author thinks the banks were "on the wrong planet" in that they[A] misinterpreted market price indicators[B] exaggerated the real value of their assets[C] neglected the likely existence of bad debts.[D] denied booking losses in their sale of assets.40. The author's attitude towards standard-setters is one of[A] satisfaction.[B] skepticism.[C] objectiveness[D] sympathyPart BDirections:For Questions 41-45, choose the most suitable paragraphs from the list A-G and fill them into the numbered boxes to form a coherent text. Paragraph E has been correctly placed. There is one paragraph which does not fit in with the text. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET1. (10 points)[A] The first and more important is the consumer's growing preference for eating out; the consumption of food and drink in places other than homes has risen from about 32 percent of total consumption in 1995 to 35 percent in 2000 and is expected to approach 38 percent by 2005. This development is boosting wholesale demand from the food service segment by 4 to 5 percent a year across Europe, compared with growth in retail demand of 1 to 2 percent. Meanwhile, as the recession is looming large, people are getting anxious. They tend to keep a tighter hold on their purse andconsider eating at home a realistic alternative.[B] Retail sales of food and drink in Europe's largest markets are at a standstill, leaving European grocery retailers hungry for opportunities to grow. Most leading retailers have already tried e-commerce, with limited success, and expansion abroad. But almost all have ignored the big, profitable opportunity in their own backyard: the wholesale food and drink trade, which appears to be just the kind of market retailers need.[C] Will such variations bring about a change in the overall structure of the food and drink market? Definitely not. The functioning of the market is based on flexible trends dominated by potential buyers. In other words, it is up to the buyer, rather than the seller, to decide what to buy .At any rate, this change will ultimately be acclaimed by an ever-growing number of both domestic and international consumers, regardless of how long the current consumer pattern will take hold.[D] All in all, this clearly seems to be a market in which big retailers could profitably apply their scale, existing infrastructure and proven skills in the management of product ranges, logistics, and marketing intelligence. Retailers that master the intricacies of wholesaling in Europe may well expect to rake in substantial profits thereby. At least, that is how it looks as a whole. Closer inspection reveals important differences among the biggest national markets, especially in their customer segments and wholesale structures, as well as the competitive dynamics of individual food and drink categories. Big retailers must understand these differences before they can identify the segments of European wholesaling in which their particular abilities might unseat smaller but entrenched competitors. New skills and unfamiliar business models are needed too.[E] Despite variations in detail, wholesale markets in the countries that have been closely examined—France, Germany, Italy, and Spain—are made out of the same building blocks. Demand comes mainly from two sources: independent mom-and-pop grocery stores which, unlike large retail chains, are two small to buy straight from producers, and food service operators that cater to consumers when they don't eat at home. Such food service operators range from snack machines to large institutional catering ventures, but most of these businesses are known in the trade as "horeca": hotels, restaurants, and cafes. Overall, Europe's wholesale market for food and drink is growing at the same sluggish pace as the retail market, but the figures, when added together, mask two opposing trends.[F] For example, wholesale food and drink sales come to $268 billion in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom in 2000—more than 40 percent of retail sales. Moreover, average overall margins are higher in wholesale than in retail; wholesale demand from the food service sector is growing quickly as more Europeans eat out more often; and changes in the competitive dynamics of this fragmented industry are at last making it feasible for wholesalers to consolidate.[G] However, none of these requirements should deter large retailers (and even some large good producers and existing wholesalers) from trying their hand, for those that master the intricacies of wholesaling in Europe stand to reap considerable gains.EPart CDirections:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written carefully on ANSWER SHEET 2. (10 points)One basic weakness in a conservation system based wholly on economic motives is that most members of the land community have no economic value. Yet these creatures are members of the biotic community and, if its stability depends on its integrity, they are entitled to continuance.When one of these noneconomic categories is threatened and, if we happen to love it .We invert excuses to give it economic importance. At the beginning of century songbirds were supposed to be disappearing. (46) Scientists jumped to the rescue with some distinctly shaky evidence to the effect that insects would eat us up if birds failed to control them. the evidence had to be economic in order to be valid.It is painful to read these round about accounts today. We have no land ethic yet, (47) but we have at least drawn near the point of admitting that birds should continue as a matter of intrinsic right, regardless of the presence or absence of economic advantage to us.A parallel situation exists in respect of predatory mammals and fish-eating birds.(48) Time was when biologists somewhat over worded the evidence that these creatures preserve the health of game by killing the physically weak, or that they prey only on "worthless" species.Some species of tree have been read out of the party by economics-minded foresters because they grow too slowly, or have too low a sale vale to pay as timber crops. (49) In Europe, where forestry is ecologically more advanced, the non-commercial tree species are recognized as members of native forest community, to be preserved as such, within reason.To sum up: a system of conservation based solely on economic self-interest is hopelessly lopsided. (50) It tends to ignore, and thus eventually to eliminate, many elements in the land community that lack commercial value, but that are essential to its healthy functioning. It assumes, falsely, I think, that the economic parts of the biotic clock will function without the uneconomic parts.。

参考范文As is known to all, September 10th is Teacher’s Day in our country, when teachers’work is celebrated nationally. On this occasion, I would like to say to my teachers, “Thank your for your hard work. Please enjoy this special holiday of your own.”I believe that everybody share my feeling because all of us must have benefited one way or another from our teacher’s care and guidance. During my first year in junior high school, I did rather poorly in English, which made me very upset. Mr. Hu, my English teacher at the time, did not look down upon me just because I lagged far behind the others. Instead, he encouraged me repeatedly and spent much of his spare time helping me. slowly, my English was improved and I managed to catch up with others.I know that the best way to reward the love and efforts of Mr. Hu and many other teachers is to work harder and make myself better prepared to serve our country. I’m sure that my thought is also shared by all of other students who owe their achievements in work and life to the beloved teachers.2009年专升本英语真题随着互联网的迅速发展及其对人类生活产生的巨大影响,越来越多的人喜欢在网上购物。

请你根据下表提供的信患。

写一封回信,谈—谈2.生词:减轻学习负担——reduce learning load满分作文(一)Dear Dick,I am glad to receive your letter. You ask me if learning load isreduced in our schools. I can tell you something that I know. Before schools reduce learning load, we had classes and did the homeworkin weekends. Usually, we had to do our homework until 11:30 pm. But a fter that measure, we have time to do some extracurricular activitiesin weekends, such as visiting a museum, learning computer, and drawi ng. When we have supper, we can watch TV for news, or read after sup per. In that case, we could go to bed earlier at 10:00 pm. I think the differences, which after schools practice the measure are obvious. Best wishes.Yours,Li Hua满分作文(二)Dear Dick,I’m very glad to hear from you again. From your letter I know you wantto know more about reducing learning load for primary and middle school students in China. Let me tell you. Before learning load was reduc ed, I had had to do my homework, so I could not go to bed until halfpast eleven; but after learning load was reduced, I can visit muse ums, take computer and painting lessons. At night I can read books and newspapers or watch TV. Now I usually go to bed at ten. We are all like it very much.Best wishes.Yours,Li Hua满分作文(三)Dear Dick,I am very glad to hear from you. You asked me about the change o f school education in China. We are really happy about the changes c alled on to reduce learningload. Before I had to study six days a week and I always went to bed after 11:30. I seldom had free time to do what I like. But now I hav e more spare time. I can read many interesting books, watch TV or eve n do some sports. And I never feel tired in the class as before, beca use I go bed at 10:00. All of my classmates are happy about this new arrangement of things.Best wishes.Yours,Li Hua满分作文(四)Dear Dick,How time flies! I’m very glad to hear from you again. You want to know what is going o n in schools in China? In a word, everything has changed. Every scho oltakes part in the campaign of reducing learning load. In the past, I used to study until 11:30 on weekends. But now I can arrange thing s on my own, such as readingbooks, visiting museums, or taking computer lessons in my weekend d ays. In the evening I can watch news on TV or read newspapers. What’s more, my parents supportme. They said although I was a student, I didn’t have to work all day long. I think the idea of reducing learning l oad is well accepted by everyone.Best wishes,Yours,Li Hua满分作文(五)Dear Dick,I am so glad to tell you about the policy of reducing learning l oad in China. All of us think it benefits us more than before, though our studying time has been shortened. We have learned much more and become more knowledgeable. As a high school student in modern times, we shouldn’t merely be students, hard-working students,but also be fully developed and have wide interests. We used to lear n for gaining high scores, so always didn’t find effective ways to learn but lost ourselves in our textbooks. Also there are pressures from our parents and teachers. It seemed t hat we were forced to learn something, but not on our own willingness . We are often subject to the school’s regulations, which limit our activities. After the policy of reduci ng learning load came into practice, all the problems can be solved. Now I feel more confident about my future, because I have learned many things not just one thing--studying.Best wishes.Yours,Li Hua满分作文(六)Dear Dick,I’m glad to hear from you again. You want to know what is going on in schools in China? In fact, things have improved a lots after the re ducing learning load plan was carried out. First, we can spend our weekends in a pleasant way. For example, we can go to museums, take c omputer lessons and draw pictures. But in the past we still has less ons at weekends. Secondly, we watch news on TV, read books and news papers. We usually go to bed at ten o’clock. Everyone is pleased with the new arrangement. Can you underst and how good it is to reduce students’ learning load?Best wishes.Yours,Li Hua满分作文(七)Dear Dick,I am so glad to hear from you again. In your letter, you said y ou were interested in the policy of reducing learning load in China a nd wanted to know more. OK, I’d like to talk about it. Now, I feel many things have begun to change . I used to study from Monday to Saturday, just one day left. I shoul d do endless homework. Every night, I didn’t go to bed until 11:30 after I finished my homework.

The interview, so to speak, has become indispensable for getting a satisfactory job. On the one hand, the interviewer can take advantage of the occasion to learn about the candidates, such as their work experiences, education and their personalities, so as to pick out the right person for the company. On the other hand, the interviewee can make use of the opportunity to get to know the job he is going to take up, the salary, the working conditions and many other things about the job he is interested in.Therefore, the job interview is very important to ajob-hunter. But how can one succeed in it? Firstly of all, the interviewee must pay attention to his or her appearance. The first impression is always where we start. Get dressed properly and neatly. Secondly, good manners are equally important. Don't be too proud, and neither too timid. Just be courteous. Thirdly, the interviewee must demonstrate his aptitude and skills for the job and his knowledge about the job-related areas. Be confident. Last but not the least, the interviewee ought to be honest about his or her personal as well as academic background, for honesty is the best policy.To sum up, the job interview is indeed important, but there is no need to be nervous. As long as the interviewee has the ability for the job, with careful preparation and a fairly confident and honest performance, his or her success can be ensured.参考翻译:(作文地带)如今,在一个日益吃紧的劳动力市场,不管是对于求职者还是雇主,面试都非常重要。

考研英语2001年作文题目及范文

考研英语2001年作文题目及范文

考研英语2001年作文题目及范文In the year 2001, the postgraduate entrance examination in China presented a topic that resonated with the aspirations and struggles of many young scholars. The essay question asked candidates to reflect on the journey of pursuing higher education and the personal growth associated with this quest. The following essay embodies the spirit of that prompt, weaving a narrative that captures the essence of academic pursuit and the transformative power of knowledge.Embarking on the path to postgraduate studies is akin to setting sail on a vast ocean of knowledge. The decision to pursue further education is not merely a continuation of one's academic journey; it is a commitment to personal and intellectual development. It is a testament to the belief that through learning and research, individuals can contribute to the betterment of society.The pursuit of postgraduate studies is often driven by a deep-seated passion for a particular field of study. This passion becomes the guiding light, illuminating the path through the challenges and rigors of academic research. It is the fuel that keeps the flame of curiosity burning, inspiring scholars to delve deeper into their subjects and uncover new insights and truths.As one navigates through the complexities of advanced studies, the experience is both humbling and empowering. The more one learns, the more one realizes the vastness of what remains unknown. This realization fosters a sense of humility, an understanding that knowledge is infinite and one's pursuit of it is a lifelong endeavor.However, this journey is not without its obstacles. The road to academic excellence is paved with trials and tribulations. There are moments of doubt and frustration, times when the goals seem unattainable and the effort futile. Yet, it is in these moments of struggle that the most significant growth occurs. Overcoming these challenges builds resilience and fortitude, qualities that are invaluable in both academic and personal spheres.The camaraderie among fellow postgraduate students forms an integral part of the experience. The exchange of ideas, the collaborative research efforts, and the shared aspirations create a vibrant intellectual community. It is within this community that scholars find support and encouragement, a collective force that propels them towards their goals.The culmination of postgraduate studies is not merely the attainment of a degree. It is the acquisition of a mindset that values critical thinking, innovation, and a relentless pursuit of knowledge. It is the development of a scholarly identity, one that is characterized by a commitment to making meaningful contributions to one's field and to society at large.In conclusion, the journey of postgraduate studies is a transformative experience that shapes the minds and lives of those who undertake it. It is a journey marked by passion, perseverance, and the relentless pursuit of knowledge. As scholars embark on this path, they do so with the conviction that their efforts will not only enhance their own lives but also enrich the world around them.This essay, while adhering to the guidelines provided, aims to encapsulate the essence of the 2001 postgraduate entrance examination essay topic. It strives to convey the depth and breadth of the postgraduate experience, using language that is precise, vivid, and succinct. The logical flow of the narrative ensures coherence and fluency, reflecting the high quality of the document as requested. 。

2001-2010考研作文优秀范文

2001-2010考研作文优秀范文

In this vivid picture, an oil lamp with a happy smile twinkles in the dark. Around it is the caption reading "Love is similar to a light shining brighter in the dark". The picture means that love is considered more precious in more difficult situations and more needed by people in urgent need of help.Only when love is contributed to the people in greater need, can it better achieve its value, I can exemplify this conclusion with the Poverty Alleviation Project. In its spirit of helping the poor in backward regions, many college students, upon graduation, choose to work in poor areas where they are most needed and their knowledge can be made better use of. Dedication of love is their choice. Seeing how excited the people there are when they witness the change these dedicators bring about, we can know how much the devoted love and help are cherished.The best way to show our love, in my opinion, is to follow the above mentioned example by giving love to the people during the hours of darkness. Therefore when we see someone in difficulty or in distress, we shouldn’t hesitate to offer our hands.2002.An American girl, dressed in Chinese traditional costume of a minority group, smiles sweetly and radiantly in the photo above. The ethnic accessories such as jeweled headdress, beaded necklace, earrings with tassels and silk attire with ribbons have added oriental glamour to her beautiful appearance. Obviously, the girl who has great curiosity and interest in Chinese culture feels fairly satisfied with her new look.The picture reflects that, in recent years, a new fashion trend of wearing Chinese traditional clothes has swept the world accompanied by a global upsurge of Chinese craze. More importantly, with rapid social development and frequent cultural exchanges, a mounting number of foreigners begin to understand and accept splendid Chinese culture and some of them even flood into China to gain a deeper insight into it.On one hand, the phenomenon highlights the glamour of our culture, which has been universally accepted as the invaluable treasure of all human beings. On the other hand, it results from our great achievements during the last two decades, such as the re-unification of Hong Kong and Macao with China, the accession to WTO, Beijing’s successful hosting of the 2008 Olympic Games, the triumphant launch of Shenzhou spaceship and so forth. How can one resist being appealed to such an energetic nation with an increasingly significant status as well as a long and colorful culture?2003.The two pictur es show us the relationship between circumstance and one’s growth. At the beginning, a flower thrives on the protection of the greenhouse, its branches tender and petals fresh. However, once removed away from the shelter, the flower withers and its petals fall in the thunderstorm. Form the pictures we can see that a flower kept in a greenhouse can never survive the harsh conditions.It is an obvious fact that the development of a person is similar to the growth of a flower. A child under the complete protection of parents can never learn to face challenges on his own. This is particularly true of children born after the 1980s, which grew up in a time of fast economic growth and in increasingly wealthy families. Being the only child in the family and the focus of parents and grandparents, the so-called little emperors or empresses have not the least idea of what hardship and harshness are. As soon as they grow up and walk out of the protection, they will have difficulty coping with life, and what’s more, will be at a loss when making their own decisions. What concerns us beyond individual growth is that sooner or later our country will be passed to the hands of the younger generation.This problem is directly related to our concept of family education. As we all know, the role that a home plays in the overall development of a child is more crucial than that of the school. The responsibility of parents is much more than providing the child with a comfortable life. Parents should treat their child as an individual who will become independent sooner or later and thus encourage him or her to think and act independently. Until this right concept of parenting is installed, we shall continue to have children like greenhouse flowers, beautiful but fragile and unable toA boy, sweaty and happy, is dashing to embrace his victory in a race. However, when he crosses the finishing line, his step, to one’s surprise, doesn’t cease. In front of his feet, there are two huge Chinese characters-----Starting Point.It is apparent that the author of the drawing tries to reveal us: a finishing line always leads to another starting point. This is true not only in a race, but also in one’s life as well. One track represents no more than one stage in the process of life, while the finishing line is merely the realization of a short-term goal. Therefore, this line doesn’t announce the finishing of a race, but rather marks the starting of another one.Such stimulating stories are not rare in our daily life. The most persuasive example is Madame Curie, a world-renowned female scientist. She was awarded twice the Nobel Prize for Physics and for Chemistry, which were in totally different research fields, within less than 10 years. It is rather a unique thing in the history of science in the whole world! The same spirit of keeping on striving is also shared by Chinese scientists. After the triumphant end of Shenzhou V spaceship’s launch, they began the further study of China’s space exploration. The continued efforts of them gave birth to Shenzhou VI and Shenzhou VII spaceships. A third example is relevant to us. Four year’s college life is now approaching an end and each of us is standing at a new starting point, either pursuing further study or starting a career. Only when we are well-prepared for this change, can we face the challenge in the future and be the winner of the next stage.2005.As we can see from the picture, a football match of supporting parents is going on. The eldest son is exerting all his strength to kick away his father who is crouching in the middle of the field like a football, while the other three children are standing in different corners, guarding their own goals. It is obvious that none of them is willing to receive the old father.This picture does reflect a thought-provoking social phenomenon. Nowadays many young people in China regard taking care of their aging parents as a burden and refuse to take the responsibility. As a result, the old are neglected and even abandoned when growing weak and helpless.The phenomenon reflected in the picture is both immoral and illegal. It is well know that caring the old is not only a traditional virtue cherished by Chinese but also a duty laid down in the constitution. In order to prevent such mistreatments typified in the picture, we should make efforts to promote moral education, and at the same time strengthen the regulations and laws. Only in these ways, can we ensure a better life for the aged.2006.As is shown in the two photos, one man has written ”Beckham” on his face and the other is spending RMB 300 to have Beckham’s hair style. How mad their behaviors are!The photos have revealed a current social phenomenon that some young people are crazily following super stars. They devote almost all the time and energy to the pursuits of stars. What’s more worrisome is that they mainly pay attention to the physic appearance rather than the soul force of the stars. Few of the youngsters can realize the achievements the superstars attain are from their diligence and perseverance.In my opinion, though the appreciation of idols itself gives little cause for criticism, the young should admire and imitate their idols in a proper way. It is not worthwhile for the young people to hurt themselves or spend extravagantly to imitate idols. Idol worship is not necessarily bad and real heroes can inspire the young generation in their pursuit for better life and brighter future. To have a good result, the society should encourage the young people to focus their attention on good qualities which help the stars succeed and the young people themselves should learn how to work hard like their idols to earn their own honor.A football match has reached its climax before a critical penalty kick! The football is waiting for a powerful and accurate kick form the attacker while the goalkeeper, watching it closely, has prepared himself to defend the goal. Suddenly, frustrating scenes occur to both the kicker and keeper and destroy their confidence. In the eyes of the attacker, the goalkeeper grows into a giant and it’s hopeless to shoot in. Meanwhile, the defender minimizes himself and despairs of keeping good guard.The message conveyed in the picture seems to be that people tend to underestimate their abilities and magnify difficulties when confronted with challenges. But in fact, it is not the case. What is true is that people with tremendous potential have buried their chances to win under stones of negative thoughts, which damages their confidence and hope. To awake one’s dormant spirit and lead to bigger success, a strong positive attitude is indispensable.Numerous examples can demonstrate the power of a positive outlook. For instance, there is a fierce in the entrance exams for postgraduate schools. It is not uncommon to find students with positive thinking often excel in the exam eventually. Another case in point is Deng Yaping, the internationally famous athlete. She is very short, but becomes a legend in world table-tennis field. Her perseverance and strong will enable her to win not only 18 major world champions but also respects from all over the world.2008.Do you regard it as a tale from the Thousand and One Nights i f I say that two single-legged men stride forward without crutches they have to rely on? The above drawing depicts this touching miracle. With the support of each other, they abandon the walking sticks and, just as the caption at the bottom states, will travel extensively from north to south together with their combine legs.The picture shows: even disable people can make up a capable team. It can be vividly illustrated by the beautiful dance Kwan-yin of 1000 Hands performed by 20 disable girls during the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. With the perfect cooperation, these deaf-mute girls change disadvantages into advantages, the impossible into reality.Without cooperation, a person or organization cannot accomplish much in the increasingly interdependent society we now live in. It is the cooperation based on the complementary advantages that will contribute to the ultimate success. Moreover, the spirit of cooperation should be embraced by every nation in the world. China, in order to achieve the goal of win-win and the common development, has been actively participating in the cooperation with other countries in various fields. In conclusion, cooperation is an essential element of success.2009.An enormous net, which symbolizes the Internet, has connected together everyone-young and old, men and women. People from every corner of the world are keeping in touch with each other just by clicking the mouse and pressing keys on the keyboard. With its convenience and efficiency, Internet is narrowing the distance among people in terms of both space and time.However the picture also shows: while people enjoy surfing online, walls of barrier emerge unnoticed and restrict each one of them to a narrow space. As time spent on Internet is on the rise, face-to-face communication has experienced a rapid drop. And the reduction of contact in reality may result in feeling of distance and isolation. This can be illustrated by the example of a young couple who used to live a happy life. Since the third year of their marriage, they have got addicted to chatting online through QQ, each with a computer in a different room. As time passed by, the couple gradually lost the desire to talk with each other. Eventually, the increasing isolation between them led to the end of their marriage.Such vivid examples in our real life remind us that we shouldn’t over-rely in the Internet to communicate. Instead, we need to actively interact with others in social activities. After all, the virtual net world cannot be a substitute for the real world. So we must make use of the Internet judiciously and learn to respect real people and real life.The picture presents a steaming “cultural hotpot”, which contains a variety of ingredients of culture, both ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign. These cultural ingredients, such as Swan Lake, Confucianism, and Einstein, are tremendously delicious and nutritious when combined together. What a great cultural feast! This drawing implies a prevailing trend-the integration of global cultures and the co-existence of multi-cultures.The blend of worldwide cultures could become much “tasty”. Just as the vegetables or meat taste especially delicious when they are incorporated in a hotpot, cultures become extraordinarily pleasant to appreciate only when integrating. The integrating provides an abundance of choices for people around the whole world, who may not only enjoy their own culture but also alien ones.The culture blending could also bring countless spiritual “nourishment” for human beings. Both Chinese and foreigners will benefit a lot from absorbing different cultures, which could be complementary to each other. For instance, Westerners could enrich their artistic understanding by means of learning Kong Fu or appreciating Peking Opera and Chinese could also improve their level of artistic appreciation through watching western classical ballet Swan Lake. Another case in point is that Chinese traditional philosophy, Confucianism, has been introduced, accepted and applied into practical use in the western world to boost the effectiveness of management; besides, the Enlightenment from the West help Chinese to break the bonds of feudalism and supply the thought basis for China’s social changes in the end of 20th Century.Writing materials:1. It is typified in Chinese people’s efforts to fight against the recent natural disasters such as floods and earthquakes. The merciless disasters devastated millions of houses, causing a great many of people homeless. Under those circumstances, Chinese people and overseas Chinese voluntarily offer financial or other support to rebuild the disaster areas.2. When the devastating earthquake hit Sichuan Province severely, people across whole country make untied efforts to reconstruct the stricken area and rebuild lives of people suffering the disaster.3.Helen Keller, a woman who has lived in a world without light and sound for 87 years, didn’t let the flower of her life wither away because the merciless illness left her deaf and blind. Instead, she strived to learn knowledge and became a master of 5 languages, famous writer and educator.4. Employment situation continues to worsen and many young people are forced to move away by the demands of finding work. Therefore, there is concern about the breakdown of traditional cultural practices where children take care of aged parents.。

(40 points)Text 1Of all the changes that have taken place in English-language newspapers during the past quarter-century, perhaps the most far-reaching has been the inexorable decline in the scope and seriousness of their arts coverage.It is difficult to the point of impossibility for the average reader under the age of forty to imagine a time when high-quality arts criticism could be found in most big-city newspapers. Yet a considerable number of the most significant collections of criticism published in the 20th century consisted in large part of newspaper reviews. To read such books today is to marvel at the fact that their learned contents were once deemed suitable for publication in general-circulation dailies.We are even farther removed from the unfocused newspaper reviews published in England between the turn of the 20th century and the eve of World War II, at a time when newsprint was dirt-cheap and stylish arts criticism was considered an ornament to the publications in which it appeared. In those far-off days, it was taken for granted that the critics of major papers would write in detail and at length about the events they covered. Theirs was a serious business, and even those reviewers who wore their learning lightly, like George Bernard Shaw and Ernest Newman, could be trusted to know what they were about. These men believed in journalism as a calling, and were proud to be published in the daily press. “So few authors have brains enough or literary gift enough to keep their own end up in journalism,” Newman wrote, “that I am tempted to define ‘journalism’ as ‘a term of contempt applied by writers who are not read to writers who are.’”Unfortunately, these critics are virtually forgotten. NevilleCardus, who wrote for the Manchester Guardian from 1917 until shortly before his death in 1975, is now known solely as a writer of essays on the game of cricket. During his lifetime, though, he was also one of England’s foremost classical-music critics, a stylist so widely admired that his Autobiography (1947) became a best-seller. He was knighted in 1967, the first music critic to be so honored. Yet only one of his books is now in print, and his vast body of writings on music is unknown save to specialists.Is there any chance that Cardus’s criticism wi ll enjoy a revival? The prospect seems remote. Journalistic tastes had changed long before his death, and postmodern readers have little use for the richly upholstered Vicwardian prose in which he specialized. Moreover, the amateur tradition in music criticism has been in headlong retreat.21. It is indicated in Paragraphs 1 and 2 that[A] arts criticism has disappeared from big-city newspapers.[B] English-language newspapers used to carry more arts reviews.[C] high-quality newspapers retain a large body of readers.[D] young readers doubt the suitability of criticism on dailies.22. Newspaper reviews in England before World War II were characterizedby[A] free themes.[B] casual style.[C] elaborate layout.[D] radical viewpoints.23. Which of the following would Shaw and Newman most probably agree on?[A] It is writers' duty to fulfill journalistic goals.[B] It is contemptible for writers to be journalists.[C] Writers are likely to be tempted into journalism.[D] Not all writers are capable of journalistic writing.24. What can be learned about Cardus according to the last twoparagraphs?[A] His music criticism may not appeal to readers today.[B] His reputation as a music critic has long been in dispute.[C] His style caters largely to modern specialists.[D] His writings fail to follow the amateur tradition.25. What would be the best title for the text?[A] Newspapers of the Good Old Days[B] The Lost Horizon in Newspapers[C] Mournful Decline of Journalism[D] Prominent Critics in MemoryText 2Over the past decade, thousands of patents have been granted for what are called business methods. received one for its "one-click" online payment system. Merrill Lynch got legal protection for an asset allocation strategy. One inventor patented a technique for lifting a box.Now the nation's top patent court appears completely ready to scale back on business-method patents, which have been controversial ever since they were first authorized 10 years ago. In a move that has intellectual-property lawyers abuzz the U.S. court of Appeals for the federal circuit said it would use a particular case to conduct a broad review of business-method patents. In re Bilski, as the case is known , is "a very big deal", says Dennis D. Crouch of the University of Missouri School of law. It "has the potential to eliminate an entire class of patents."Curbs on business-method claims would be a dramatic about-face, because it was the federal circuit itself that introduced such patents with is 1998 decision in the so-called state Street Bank case, approving a patent on a way of pooling mutual-fund assets. That ruling produced an explosion in business-method patent filings, initially by emerging internet companies trying to stake out exclusive rights to specific types of online transactions. Later, move established companies raced to add such patents to their files, if only as a defensive move against rivals that might beat them to the punch. In 2005, IBM noted in a court filing that it had been issued more than 300 business-method patents despite the fact that it questioned the legal basis for granting them. Similarly, some Wall Street investment films armed themselves with patents for financial products, even as they took positions in court cases opposing the practice.The Bilski case involves a claimed patent on a method for hedging risk in the energy market. The Federal circuit issued an unusual order stating that the case would be heard by all 12 of the court's judges, rather than a typical panel of three, and that one issue it wants to evaluate is whether it should "reconsider" its state street Bank ruling.The Federal Circuit's action comes in the wake of a series of recent decisions by the supreme Court that has narrowed the scope of protections for patent holders. Last April, for example the justices signaled thattoo many patents were being upheld for "inventions" that are obvious. The judges on the Federal circuit are "reacting to the anti-patent trend at the Supreme Court", says Harold C. Wegner, a patent attorney and professor at George Washington University Law School.26. Business-method patents have recently aroused concern because of[A] their limited value to business[B] their connection with asset allocation[C] the possible restriction on their granting[D] the controversy over authorization27. Which of the following is true of the Bilski case?[A] Its ruling complies with the court decisions[B] It involves a very big business transaction[C] It has been dismissed by the Federal Circuit[D] It may change the legal practices in the U.S.28. The word "about-face" (Line 1, Para 3) most probably means[A] loss of good will[B] increase of hostility[C] change of attitude[D] enhancement of dignity29. We learn from the last two paragraphs that business-method patents[A] are immune to legal challenges[B] are often unnecessarily issued[C] lower the esteem for patent holders[D] increase the incidence of risks30. Which of the following would be the subject of the text?[A] A looming threat to business-method patents[B] Protection for business-method patent holders[C] A legal case regarding business-method patents[D] A prevailing trend against business-method patentsText 3In his book The Tipping Point, Malcolm Gladwell argues that social epidemics are driven in large part by the acting of a tiny minority of special individuals, often called influentials, who are unusuallyinformed, persuasive, or well-connected. The idea is intuitively compelling, but it doesn't explain how ideas actually spread.The supposed importance of influentials derives from a plausible sounding but largely untested theory called the "two step flow of communication": Information flows from the media to the influentials and from them to everyone else. Marketers have embraced the two-step flow because it suggests that if they can just find and influence the influentials, those selected people will do most of the work for them. The theory also seems to explain the sudden and unexpected popularity of certain looks, brands, or neighborhoods. In many such cases, a cursory search for causes finds that some small group of people was wearing, promoting, or developing whatever it is before anyone else paid attention. Anecdotal evidence of this kind fits nicely with the idea that only certain special people can drive trendsIn their recent work, however, some researchers have come up with the finding that influentials have far less impact on social epidemics than is generally supposed. In fact, they don't seem to be required of all.The researchers' argument stems from a simple observing about social influence, with the exception of a few celebrities like Oprah Winfrey—whose outsize presence is primarily a function of media, not interpersonal, influence—even the most influential members of a population simply don't interact with that many others. Yet it is precisely these non-celebrity influentials who, according to the two-step-flow theory, are supposed to drive social epidemics by influencing their friends and colleagues directly. For a social epidemic to occur, however, each person so affected, must then influence his or her own acquaintances, who must in turn influence theirs, and so on; and just how many others pay attention to each of these people has little to do with the initial influential. If people in the network just two degrees removed from the initial influential prove resistant, for example from the initial influential prove resistant, for example the cascade of change won't propagate very far or affect many people.Building on the basic truth about interpersonal influence, the researchers studied the dynamics of populations manipulating a number of variables relating of populations, manipulating a number of variables relating to people's ability to influence others and their tendency to be influenced. Our work shows that the principal requirement for what we call "global cascades"– the widespread propagation of influence through networks –is the presence not of a few influentials but, rather, of a critical mass of easily influenced people, each of whom adopts, say, a look or a brand after being exposed to a single adopting neighbor. Regardless of how influential an individual is locally, he or she canexert global influence only if this critical mass is available to propagate a chain reaction.31. By citing the book The Tipping Point, the author intends to[A] analyze the consequences of social epidemics[B] discuss influentials' function in spreading ideas[C] exemplify people's intuitive response to social epidemics[D] describe the essential characteristics of influentials.32. The author suggests that the "two-step-flow theory"[A] serves as a solution to marketing problems[B] has helped explain certain prevalent trends[C] has won support from influentials[D] requires solid evidence for its validity33. What the researchers have observed recently shows that[A] the power of influence goes with social interactions[B] interpersonal links can be enhanced through the media[C] influentials have more channels to reach the public[D] most celebrities enjoy wide media attention34. The underlined phrase "these people" in paragraph 4 refers to theones who[A] stay outside the network of social influence[B] have little contact with the source of influence[C] are influenced and then influence others[D] are influenced by the initial influential35. what is the essential element in the dynamics of social influence?[A] The eagerness to be accepted[B] The impulse to influence others[C] The readiness to be influenced[D] The inclination to rely on othersText 4Bankers have been blaming themselves for their troubles in public. Behind the scenes, they have been taking aim at someone else: the accounting standard-setters. Their rules, moan the banks, have forced them to report enormous losses, and it's just not fair. These rules saythey must value some assets at the price a third party would pay, not the price managers and regulators would like them to fetch.Unfortunately, banks' lobbying now seems to be working. The details may be unknowable, but the independence of standard-setters, essential to the proper functioning of capital markets, is being compromised. And, unless banks carry toxic assets at prices that attract buyers, reviving the banking system will be difficult.After a bruising encounter with Congress, America's Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) rushed through rule changes. These gave banks more freedom to use models to value illiquid assets and more flexibility in recognizing losses on long-term assets in their income statement. Bob Herz, the FASB's chairman, cried out against those who "question our motives." Yet bank shares rose and the changes enhance what one lobby group politely calls "the use of judgment by management."European ministers instantly demanded that the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) do likewise. The IASB says it does not want to act without overall planning, but the pressure to fold when it completes it reconstruction of rules later this year is strong. Charlie McCreevy, a European commissioner, warned the IASB that it did "not live in a political vacuum" but "in the real word" and that Europe could yet develop different rules.It was banks that were on the wrong planet, with accounts that vastly overvalued assets. Today they argue that market prices overstate losses, because they largely reflect the temporary illiquidity of markets, not the likely extent of bad debts. The truth will not be known for years. But bank's shares trade below their book value, suggesting that investors are skeptical. And dead markets partly reflect the paralysis of banks which will not sell assets for fear of booking losses, yet are reluctant to buy all those supposed bargains.To get the system working again, losses must be recognized and dealt with. America's new plan to buy up toxic assets will not work unless banks mark assets to levels which buyers find attractive. Successful markets require independent and even combative standard-setters. The FASB and IASB have been exactly that, cleaning up rules on stock options and pensions, for example, against hostility from special interests. But by giving in to critics now they are inviting pressure to make more concessions.36. Bankers complained that they were forced to[A] follow unfavorable asset evaluation rules[B] collect payments from third parties[C] cooperate with the price managers[D] reevaluate some of their assets.37. According to the author , the rule changes of the FASB may resultin[A] the diminishing role of management[B] the revival of the banking system[C] the banks' long-term asset losses[D] the weakening of its independence38. According to Paragraph 4, McCreevy objects to the IASB's attempt to[A] keep away from political influences.[B] evade the pressure from their peers.[C] act on their own in rule-setting.[D] take gradual measures in reform.39. The author thinks the banks were "on the wrong planet" in that they[A] misinterpreted market price indicators[B] exaggerated the real value of their assets[C] neglected the likely existence of bad debts.[D] denied booking losses in their sale of assets.40. The author's attitude towards standard-setters is one of[A] satisfaction.[B] skepticism.[C] objectiveness[D] sympathyPart BDirections:For Questions 41-45, choose the most suitable paragraphs from the list A-G and fill them into the numbered boxes to form a coherent text. Paragraph E has been correctly placed. There is one paragraph which does not fit in with the text. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET1. (10 points)[A] The first and more important is the consumer's growing preference for eating out; the consumption of food and drink in places other than homes has risen from about 32 percent of total consumption in 1995 to 35 percent in 2000 and is expected to approach 38 percent by 2005. This development is boosting wholesale demand from the food service segment by 4 to 5 percent a year across Europe, compared with growth in retaildemand of 1 to 2 percent. Meanwhile, as the recession is looming large, people are getting anxious. They tend to keep a tighter hold on their purse and consider eating at home a realistic alternative.[B] Retail sales of food and drink in Europe's largest markets are at a standstill, leaving European grocery retailers hungry for opportunities to grow. Most leading retailers have already tried e-commerce, with limited success, and expansion abroad. But almost all have ignored the big, profitable opportunity in their own backyard: the wholesale food and drink trade, which appears to be just the kind of market retailers need.[C] Will such variations bring about a change in the overall structure of the food and drink market? Definitely not. The functioning of the market is based on flexible trends dominated by potential buyers. In other words, it is up to the buyer, rather than the seller, to decide what to buy .At any rate, this change will ultimately be acclaimed by an ever-growing number of both domestic and international consumers, regardless of how long the current consumer pattern will take hold.[D] All in all, this clearly seems to be a market in which big retailers could profitably apply their scale, existing infrastructure and proven skills in the management of product ranges, logistics, and marketing intelligence. Retailers that master the intricacies of wholesaling in Europe may well expect to rake in substantial profits thereby. At least, that is how it looks as a whole. Closer inspection reveals important differences among the biggest national markets, especially in their customer segments and wholesale structures, as well as the competitive dynamics of individual food and drink categories. Big retailers must understand these differences before they can identify the segments of European wholesaling in which their particular abilities might unseat smaller but entrenched competitors. New skills and unfamiliar business models are needed too.[E] Despite variations in detail, wholesale markets in the countries that have been closely examined—France, Germany, Italy, and Spain—are made out of the same building blocks. Demand comes mainly from two sources: independent mom-and-pop grocery stores which, unlike large retail chains, are two small to buy straight from producers, and food service operators that cater to consumers when they don't eat at home. Such food service operators range from snack machines to large institutional catering ventures, but most of these businesses are known in the trade as "horeca": hotels, restaurants, and cafes. Overall, Europe's wholesale market for food and drink is growing at the same sluggish pace as the retail market, but the figures, when added together, mask two opposing trends.[F] For example, wholesale food and drink sales come to $268 billion in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom in 2000—morethan 40 percent of retail sales. Moreover, average overall margins are higher in wholesale than in retail; wholesale demand from the food service sector is growing quickly as more Europeans eat out more often; and changes in the competitive dynamics of this fragmented industry are at last making it feasible for wholesalers to consolidate.[G] However, none of these requirements should deter large retailers (and even some large good producers and existing wholesalers) from trying their hand, for those that master the intricacies of wholesaling in Europe stand to reap considerable gains.EPart CDirections:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written carefully on ANSWER SHEET 2. (10 points)One basic weakness in a conservation system based wholly on economic motives is that most members of the land community have no economic value. Yet these creatures are members of the biotic community and, if its stability depends on its integrity, they are entitled to continuance.When one of these noneconomic categories is threatened and, if we happen to love it .We invert excuses to give it economic importance. At the beginning of century songbirds were supposed to be disappearing. (46) Scientists jumped to the rescue with some distinctly shaky evidence to the effect that insects would eat us up if birds failed to control them. the evidence had to be economic in order to be valid.It is painful to read these round about accounts today. We have no land ethic yet, (47) but we have at least drawn near the point of admitting that birds should continue as a matter of intrinsic right, regardless of the presence or absence of economic advantage to us.A parallel situation exists in respect of predatory mammals and fish-eating birds. (48) Time was when biologists somewhat over worded the evidence that these creatures preserve the health of game by killing the physically weak, or that they prey only on "worthless" species.Some species of tree have been read out of the party by economics-minded foresters because they grow too slowly, or have too low a sale vale to pay as timber crops. (49) In Europe, where forestry is ecologically more advanced, the non-commercial tree species are recognized as members of native forest community, to be preserved as such, within reason.To sum up: a system of conservation based solely on economic self-interest is hopelessly lopsided. (50) It tends to ignore, and thus eventually to eliminate, many elements in the land community that lack commercial value, but that are essential to its healthy functioning. It assumes, falsely, I think, that the economic parts of the biotic clock will function without the uneconomic parts.Section ⅢWritingPart A51.

2001年考研英语大作文范文

2001年考研英语大作文范文In the year 2001, the world stood at the cusp of a new millennium, facing challenges and opportunities that were as daunting as they were exciting. The turn of the century prompted individuals to reflect on the past and speculate about the future, particularly in the realm of education and personal development. The pursuit of higher education, especially postgraduate studies, became a focal point for many aspiring students who sought to enhance their knowledge and skills in an increasingly competitive global landscape.The significance of postgraduate studies cannot be overstated. It represents not just an academic endeavor, but a transformative journey that shapes one's intellectual and professional trajectory. For those embarking on this journey, the mastery of language, particularly English, is paramount. It is not merely a tool for communication but a bridge to a world of ideas, cultures, and innovations.As we delve into the intricacies of language learning, we find that it is an art form as much as it is a science. The nuances of grammar, the rhythm of syntax, and the color of vocabulary come together to paint thoughts and emotions on the canvas of comprehension. The ability to articulate complex ideas with clarity and precision is a testament to one's proficiency and a gateway to academic success.In the context of the 2001 postgraduate entrance examination, the English essay served as a critical component, assessing not only the candidate's linguistic abilities but also their critical thinking and analytical skills. The essay topics often revolved around current affairs, social issues, or philosophical debates, requiring examinees to present well-reasoned arguments supported by evidence and examples.To excel in such a task, one must first understand the essence of argumentation. It begins with the identification of a central thesis, a statement that encapsulates the core argument of the essay. This thesis serves as the guiding star, around which all subsequent points orbit. The body of the essay then unfolds in a series of paragraphs, each dedicated to a specific aspect of the argument, providing depth and dimension to the thesis.The use of language in these paragraphs must be both precise and evocative. Active verbs bring energy to the narrative, while adjectives and adverbs add flavor and intensity. However, the true power of language lies in its ability to connect ideas. Transitional phrases and conjunctions weave sentences together, creating a tapestry of logic that leads the reader through the argument with ease and grace.Examples and anecdotes serve as the concrete pillars that support the abstract framework of the essay. They ground the argument in reality, making it relatable and convincing. Statistics and quotations from authoritative sources lend credibility, demonstrating the writer's research and understanding of the subject matter.In conclusion, the art of essay writing is a dance of intellect and expression. It demands a balance between form and function, where every word, every sentence, and every paragraph plays a crucial role in conveying the writer's message. The 2001 postgraduate entrance examination English essay is not just an academic exercise; it is a reflection of one's ability to navigate the complex world of ideas and emerge with a clear and compelling voice.As we look back on that pivotal year, we recognize that the lessons learned and the skills honed in the process of preparing for such an examination remain relevant even today. They remind us that the pursuit of knowledge is a timeless endeavor, one that transcends the boundaries of years and continues to inspire generations of learners to reach for the heights of their potential. 。

The drawer’s intention seems to b e highly self-evident and the meaning causes us to be thought-provoking。

It holds to be apparent that the cartoon is indicative of a pervasive phenomenonwith regard to culture. When it comes to(一谈到) culture,its great impacts and benefits can’t be too estimated. As China opens to the outside world, our traditional culture is embracing the foreign culture, thus making our Chinese culture more diversified, colorful and internationalized just like a melting pot. What the picture conveys goes far beyond this. The fact that people from different countries are attracted to each othe r,indicating that to some extent different cultures can be accepted,respected,appreciated and shared internationally. Or put it in another way, Chinese unique culture can become international through worldwide cultural exchanges. Since the trend of globalizationbecome irresistible, cultural integration can effectively improve mutual understanding and friendship among different countries.In my personal sense, Chinese national culture as priceless spiritual treasure should be preserved and cherished. Meanwhile,there are good reasons to embrace foreign cultures on the ground that those ideas from other cultures can provide different perspectives for us to observe the world in the long run. However,confronted with a different culture,we should be sensible enough to absorb its essence and to resist its dark side. Only in this way can we promote cultural integration positively, thus making our motherland dimensional, colorful and vigorous.

However, to my surprise and sadness, I have found that disposable plastic bags are still widely used in some areas just because people are unwilling to change their old habits, thus causing their surroundings to be even worse.To solve this serious problem, I would like to put forward a couple of practical suggestions. Above all, our country should establish a strong agency to limit the production of those bags and monitor the use of them. Furthermore, some other choices should be adovcated to replace plastic bags with paper or bamboo ones. Finally, consumers should pay for the use of plastic bags so as to enhance their consciousness of environmental protection.I really hope my suggestions would attract your due attention and receive an early reply.Y ours Sincerely,Li Ming52:用网络使我们看不见的东西能听见,远隔千山万水但能联系,意思就是网络的远与近大作文是:网络的近与远一客观描述图二说明意思三给出观点【范文】As is vividly depicted in the drawing, in front of computers and in narrow spaces are sitting many people, exchanging their views with each other by surfing the Internet. How impressive the drawing is in describing the people’s addiction to the Internet. The drawer’s intention seems to be highly self-evident and the meaning causes us to be thought-provoking.It holds apparent that the cartoon is indicative of a pervasive problem with regard to Internet. When it comes to(一谈到) Internet,its great impacts and benefits can’t be too estimated. It is the Internet that makes our big world become a global village. However, as a growing number of individuals are addicted to (沉溺于) the Internet, they forget doing other important work and are gradually indulged in(沉溺在) the virtual world, unwilling to go into the real society. As a consequence(因此), they close their doors and never go out as soon as they return home from work, reluctant to have any face-to-face connection even with other folks except on line. What’s worse, they become indifferent(漠不关心)to their friends, neighbours, as well as relatives.This phenomenon is harmful to us and our community too. As the pressure in life and work increases, we should learn to use proper ways to relieve it. It’s time that we took some measures to improve the situation. People can be organized to hold some activities together to develop some good hobbies. Consequently, we must make full use of Internet to do everything beneficial to make our daily life both joyful and meaningful.

Unfortunately, after I came back from Canada, I found it in my luggage. I was in such a hurry that I forgot to return it to you. I will send it to you by post or express as soon as possible. If necessary, I will compensate for any troubles it may cause.Once again, I feel so sorry for any inconvenience caused. Please accept my apologies. Sincerely yours,Li Ming大作文范文As is illustrated in the picture, the two disabled persons whose crippled legs are bound together do a lot of traveling. Accordingly, this far-reaching picture reflects a common phenomenon in today’s society: the people who are in the dark want to tu rn the corner but they can not make it respectively and in turn they have to choose to pull together in times of trouble.There are several reasons accounting for this. Since we have to live in an on-the-move lifestyle, we may encounter various plights, where we would be at a loss rather than to seek for others’ assistance. Further more, if we do not offer help to each other when we confront dilemma, we would not realize our dream. And no issue in China is as basic to build up the society in harmony as to conduct coordination in face of disasters.Judging from what have been argued above, people have come to realize the value of mutual aid. It is, therefore, necessary that some effective steps be made to advocate spirit of supporting each other. To begin with, the government should make laws to encourage people to unite. In addition, people should enhance the awareness of caring each other especially when they are in trouble. Only in those ways, can we make people, even not being acquaintance, help each other.200751. 参考范文January 20th, 2007Dear Sir or Madam,I’m a student in the university and a loyal reader of this library. I’m writing to tell some of my ideas, which I hope to be helpful for you.I notice that many magazines in our library are out of date. It would be beneficial to us students if they could be updated in time. And I suggest introducing some new journals so as to bring new fresh air to the library. Furthermore, since we have a huge number of books, it is not easy to find the right one easily. However, if we can introduce some new searching means, such as implementing new information management system that would be useful.Thank you for taking time reading this letter and I’m looking forward to seeing some new changes soon.Sincerely Y ours,Li MingPart B (20 points)52. 参考范文As can be seen from the cartoon, different ideas may come from the same thing. In the picture, while trying to catch the upcoming soccer, the goal-keeper says to himself why it is so big. And, the striker simply thinks in a different way, that is why it is so small?!What makes such a big contrary on the same tournament at the same moment? It is no doubt that they are facing the very same goal and experiencing the very same moment. However, the subjective views result in different impression on the same object. Many of us may still remember the story of a pony crossing the river, which we learned from the textbook in primary school. The squirrel tells him, the river is deep; and the cow tells him, the river is not deep at all. However, in the end, he tells himself a third answer. Therefore, it is not exaggerating to say that most of us are looking into the world with personal ideas. Subjective mental status may result in a really big difference in personal views, just like the goal-keeper and the striker in the drawing.A possible solution might be to face any situation as objectively as possible. Ifwe realize this in an objective way, it would be good for us to deal with what we encounter in life, especially when we are in setbacks or facing difficulties.200651. 参考范文Dear Sir or Madam,As a college student who is studying and living in a good environment, I wish to contribute to Project Hope by offering financial assistance to a child in a remote area. Having conceived such a plan for a long time, I write this letter to request your help to recommend a proper candidate.I wonder if it is convenient for you if three things concerning the child are taken into consideration. First, the child should come from Gansu Province, for I intend to help a child from my hometown. Second, it will be better if the child is a primary school student. I hope I will help him/her from the very beginning. In addition, he/she must be willing to return to his hometown to help built it after graduation from university.My plan will be carried out as follows. On one hand, I will remit at least 2,000 Yuan in cash every year until he/she finishes his/her education before entering college. On the other hand, I decide to teach the child math and English in person during my summer vacation, which will surely be more beneficial to the child.Y our prompt help would be highly appreciated. And I am looking forward to your reply very soon.Y ours sincerely,Li MingPart B (20 points)52. 参考范文How ironic the two pictures are in describing one of the most widespread social phenomena concerning idol adoration! In the first picture, a young man writes the name of Beckham on his face. In the second picture, another young man spends 300 Y uan in dealing with his hair to make himself look like Beckham.The meaning conveyed in the two pictures reveals that in current China some young people are losing themselves. I am greatly shocked by the enthusiasm for this British football superstar shown by these two young men. Frankly speaking, things of this kind really happen among us. Some people, especially college students, do nothing but concentrate on imitating superstars. This does great harm to their study and growth. If we can’t stop the worsening of this tendency, our own culture will be damaged, and we ourselves will be the ultimate victims.From my point of view, a lot of measures should be taken to save our losing culture and re-find ourselves. In fact, some measures have already been taken. In my university, campaigns have been launched to educate people to pay more attention to our traditional culture and read more books instead of focusing on our appearances. As a result, we have witnessed some improvements but still there is a long way to go.200551. 参考范文A Letter, to QuitJun 22, 2005Dear Mr. W ang,First of all, please allow me to express my deep sorry to you for my resignation. I do know that this will bring about much trouble to you so that I write to you for my explanation.I decided to quit for some reasons as follows. To begin with, the job as an editor for the magazine Designs & Fashions is not suitable to me. What’s more, I am preparing for another degree and I prefer to further my study. Again, I apologize for my resignation to you!I am looking forward to your early reply.Sincerely yours,Li MingPart B (20 points)52. 参考范文A Helpless FatherThe picture ironically shows that a pitiable old man in rags is being helplesslykicked off by his three sons and a daughter, who all wear decent clothes. The father’s negligent children are all guarding their home gates lest their old father “roll into” their households. In other words, they four ignore their moral sense of assuming the responsibility for their old father even though they may be all living a satisfying life. That is a painful scene we often encounter in our daily life.Sad to say, the moral decline of the younger generations may be a rather explosive situation in our modern society. People definitely have their living conditions improved by wider and wider margins, as evidenced by the four children’s decent dressing, but their moral sense still remains sadly unchanged or in some cases becomes dramatically downgrading. Most people might have become too much self-centered, and even worse, they discard the tradition of giving respect to the elderly. They no longer care for their elders, let alone their neighbors or the disadvantaged; instead they try every means to avoid responsibility for other citizens. When one cares for others, one might even appear stupid or may even be distrusted.Therefore, we have to take some useful measures to avoid the scene that is mentioned above. W e must launch a variety of campaigns about the return to the good tradition of giving help and love the elderly. Moreover, we must appeal to our government to establish some relevant laws to punish those who avoid their duties. The last but not the least, our respect for age is an indication of the progress of human society, as imperatives of traditions require. W e sincerely wish that the old man could be welcome to any of the four households, elegantly dressed, and a smile on the face.………(终点又是起点)66. 参考范文Look at this picture. A man is running toward the end of a race, sweating all over. Perhaps there is nothing special about the man and the race, yet the end line leaves a deep impression on us for it is both “finish line” and “starting line” if we look at it from a different angle.The picture tells us a lot about life. An ordinary runner may think that his achievement calls for celebration for he has reached his goal. But an ambitious runner will well realize that his success is the starting point for a new race. Obviously, the way we look at things determines how far we will go. If we feel satisfied with the ability to read and write, perhaps we will not strive to get a college education. Again, if we think a Bachelor degree is quite enough, we will not take pains to pass the examination for postgraduate. Life is just like an endless race. If we don’t prepare for new races, we are either disqualified from the race or surpassed by others. That’s why the finish line is also a starting live.I like this picture. I may have been running this endless race, but I have been pushed forward by my parents or people around me. From now on, I will become more active and take the initiative, for the picture has really enlightened me. (233 words) ……..(温室的花朵)66. 参考范文As is shown in the two pictures, the same flower has different fate when put in different situations. When there is protection, the flower blooms beautifully. However, when exposed directly to rain and storm, the flower quickly withers. W e can safely come to the conclusion that greenhouse flowers cannot withstand rain and storm.The same is true with our children. As the one-child policy is adopted in China, more and more parents overprotect their children. With everything done for them and every need satisfied by their parents or grandparents, these only children seem to be healthy, happy and high-spirited. But when they leave home, they become disappointed and frustrated. Facing harsh things they have never experienced before, such as competition from peers, criticism from supervisors, pressure for deadlines and restriction for discipline, they will be at a loss, miserable or even desperate. In fact, the more protection they get from their parents, the less ability they acquire. Parents’ love for their children turns out to be a disaster.Children, like flowers, should be treated with care, but reasonable and sensible ways of doing things will help to bring about more fruitful results, if we not only love our children but also teach them how to love, our love will be passed down from generation to generation; if we not only solve problems for our children but also encourage them to solve problems, our diligence and ingenuity will make our life more meaningful and worthwhile.。
