You may use your own experiences or examples from others to illustrate your point.Example Essay:In today’s fast-paced world, perseverance often serves as the key to unlocking the door to success. Achieving goals, whether academic,professional, or personal, requires unwavering dedication and resilience.I personally have witnessed the power of perseverance in my journey to mastera foreign language. Initially, the task seemed daunting, with its complexgrammar rules and vast vocabulary. However, through consistent effort and perseverance, I gradually overcame these challenges. Each day, I dedicated myself to reading, listening, and speaking, never giving up despite the difficulties. Over time, my efforts paid off, and I found myself fluent in the language.This experience taught me that perseverance is not just about enduring hardship; it’s about turning challenges into opportunities. It’s about believing in oneself, even when the going gets tough. In conclusion, perseverance is a vital trait for anyone aspiring to achieve their goals, as it transforms dreams into realities.(Note: This is a sample essay to illustrate the structure and content of the writing task. Students should write their own essays based on their own experiences and insights.)。

The internet has made information more accessible than ever before, allowing people to connect with each other across the globe. This has not only facilitated global communication but has also opened up new opportunities for education and career development.One of the most notable developments in education is the rise of online learning platforms. These platforms offer a wide range of courses from varioussubjects, making education more flexible and accessible. Students can now learn at their own pace, from the comfort of their homes, and at a fraction of the cost of traditional education. Additionally, online learning has enabled students to gain knowledge and skills that are essential in the modern workforce.However, the digital revolution has not come without its challenges. One major concern is the potential impact on face-to-face interactions. With the increasing reliance on digital communication, many people are spending less time engaging in face-to-face conversations. This can lead to a decline in social skills and a loss of the personal connections that are essential for a healthy society.Despite these challenges, the digital revolution continues to shape our lives in profound ways. Here are some key points to consider:1.Global Connectivity: The internet has connected people from different parts of the world, breaking down geographical barriers and fostering global collaboration.2.Access to Information: The internet has made vast amounts of information readily available, allowing for self-education and lifelong learning.3.Economic Opportunities: The digital economy has created new job opportunities and allowed entrepreneurs to reach a global audience.4.Challenges of Digital Overuse: There is a risk of becoming overly dependent on digital devices, which can lead to social isolation and other health issues.Questions:1、What is the main topic of the passage?A) The benefits of traditional educationB) The impact of the digital revolution on societyC) The challenges of online learningD) The history of the internet2、According to the passage, what has the internet facilitated?A) The decline of social skillsB) The rise of online learning platformsC) The end of face-to-face interactionsD) The loss of personal connections3、What is one of the concerns mentioned about the digital revolution?A) The cost of educationB) The potential for social isolationC) The lack of access to informationD) The decrease in global connectivity4、Which of the following is a benefit of the digital revolution mentioned in the passage?A) The end of global collaborationB) The increase in social isolationC) The creation of new job opportunitiesD) The decline in the quality of educationAnswers:1、B2、B3、B4、C第三题Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.In the small coastal town of Pencader, the annual Pencader Festival is a much-anticipated event.

One of the most significant impacts has been on education. With the advent of online learning platforms, students now have access to a vast array of resources that were once only available in traditional classrooms. This shift has not only increased the convenience of education but has also opened up new opportunities for learners around the world.Online learning platforms offer flexibility that traditional classrooms cannot match. Students can learn at their own pace, revisit lessons, and even access course materials from anywhere in the world. This has been particularly beneficial for those who have work or family commitments that make attending regular classes difficult. Moreover, online courses often provide a wide range of subjects and topics that might not be available in local schools.However, the shift to online learning has also raised concerns about the quality of education. Some argue that the lack of face-to-face interaction with teachers and peers can hinder the learning experience. Additionally, there is a fear that online learners might lack the discipline and motivation to complete their studies without the structure of a traditional classroom.Despite these challenges, many educational institutions are embracing the digital revolution. They are integrating online elements into their traditionalcurricula to enhance the learning experience. This hybrid approach combines the best of both worlds, allowing students to benefit from the flexibility of online learning while still engaging in interactive and collaborative learning environments.Questions:1、What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To discuss the benefits of online learning.B. To argue against the shift to online learning.C. To compare traditional and online learning environments.D.

Focus solely on traditional classroom teaching.C. Integrate online elements into traditional curricula.D. Ignore the concerns and continue with the current approach.Answers:1、A2、C3、A4、C四、阅读第二节(12.5分)Reading SectionPassage:The ancient Egyptians had a remarkable understanding of mathematics and architecture. Their most famous architectural achievement is the construction of the pyramids, which were built as tombs for the pharaohs. The Great Pyramid of Giza, the largest of the pyramids, was built around 2560 BC. It was designed to be a perfect square, with each side measuring approximately 230 meters. The Egyptians were able to calculate the length of the sides of the pyramid with remarkable accuracy, even though they did not have the benefit of modern tools.One of the key mathematical concepts used in the construction of the pyramidswas the Pythagorean theorem. The Egyptians used the theorem to ensure that the corners of the pyramid were 90 degrees, which was essential for stability. Another important mathematical concept they used was the concept of pi, which they approximated as 3.16. This allowed them to calculate the circumference of the base of the pyramid, which was crucial for the construction of the outer casing.The Egyptians also had a sophisticated understanding of astronomy. They believed that the stars and planets had a significant impact on the human world, and they used their knowledge of astronomy to guide their daily lives. For example, they aligned the pyramids with specific stars and celestial bodies to ensure the pharaoh’s tomb was in harmony with the cosmos.Questions:1.What is the main topic of the passage?A. The Great Pyramid of GizaB. The mathematical concepts used in ancient Egyptian architectureC. The pharaohs’ tombsD. The influence of astronomy on ancient Egyptian life2.Which ancient Egyptian architectural achievement is mentioned in the passage?A. The Great Pyramid of GizaB. The SphinxC. The temples of LuxorD.

Third, it would be a good idea if you promise them that you will study hard and that you won’t let them down. Last but not least, why not try to show them their old photos? On seeing these photos they will think of all the happy days they spent together. Maybe they will forgive each other.These are only my personal suggestions.
