2015年专八写作真题及两篇范文
2015年专⼋写作真题及两篇范⽂TEM 8 2015 WritingThere has been a new trend in economic activity- the sharing economy. The biggest sector of the sharing economy is travel. You find a potential host through a website. If you both get along and they are available during your planned trip, you stand a chance of getting a place for free. In addition, people also use website and apps to rent out their cars, houses, tools, clothes and services to one another. Time magazine has included this trend in a list titled “10 ideas that will change the world.” It said, “In an era when families are scattered and we may not know the people down the street, sharing things-even with strangers we’ve met just online-allow us to make meaningful connections.” What do you think of Time’s comment?Write your essay of about 400 words for the following topic:My Views on the Sharing EconomyIn the first part you should state clearly your main argument, and in the second you should support your argument with appropriate details, in the last part you should bring what you’ve written to a natural conclusion or make a summary.Outline:My views on the sharing economyⅠThesis:The sharing economy plays an important part in modern societyⅡ ArgumentsA:It helps people make good use of resources.B:The rose's in her hand,the flavor in mine.C:People can make more friends by it.ⅢSummary:We can take an active part in the sharing economy and take good advantage of it.范⽂⼀My Views on the Sharing EconomyThe sharing economy has been a new trend in economic activities.Many people benefit a lot through it while different people hold different opinions toward the new topic.On my personal note,with the development of the modern society and economy,the sharing economy plays an important part nowadays.My reasons are as follows.First of all,it helps people make good use of resources.As we all know,the owners can share their available bargains with people who need for free or rent their unused things to one another.It can make sure that many things can be used for as many times as possible instead of being abandoned in the corner.Secondly,as the old saying goes:"The rose's in her hand,the flavor in mine."The sharing economy is just like the rose,it is the bridge between owners and recipients and offers a brand new way t o help others and the owners will receive happiness at the same time.When one release the notethat he need a place to stay for some time,the one who can offer him will contact him and they both can get what they want.Last but not least,people can make more friends through this.By chatting or negotiating online,two strangers can become familiar with each other and make meaningful connections.For example,if you plan to travel and you find the man who are willing to offer you a place to stay,you will share your journey with him or her,then you may find you two have similar outlooks on life or other similarities.You may even keep in touch with each other for a long time after the bargain.In summary,as the Times magazine comments,the sharing economy is becoming one of 10 ideas that change the world.It brings much convenience in our daily life.From my point of view,we can take an active part in the sharing economy and take full advantage of it.(304 words)范⽂⼆,My Views on the Sharing EconomyThe sharing economy refers to the economic pattern in which people share access to resources, such as goods, services and data. This newly emerging trend would be impossible without the development oftechnology. It is the Internet that makes the sharing cheaper and easier and helps to strike a balance between supply and demand. Time magazine has listed the sharing economy as one of the “10 ideas that will change the world”. As far as the comment is concerned,I cannot agree with Time more⾮常同意.As one of the greatest benefits of the digital age, the sharing economy arises from our oldest instinct as human beings. There is always an urge for us to connect with others, especially in an era when families are scattered and we do not really know the people who live nearby. It has been said that “Joys shared with others are more enjoyed.”However, in my eyes, the resources shared with others are more beneficial to our society.On the one hand, sharing economy leads to a more efficient use of resources. Some items are expensive to buy but widely owned by people who do not make the best use of them. Occasional sharing may provide extra income for the owners and can be less costly for the borrowers. If managed well, a win-win situation is achieved for both parties in the process. Besides, sharing economy contributes to environmental protection. Take accommodation for example. The more hotels are built, the more resources are required, which might in turn result in a decrease in arable land and public green space. On the other hand, the transaction 交易cost is reduced due to the use of Internet and various apps. With asmart phone in your hand, it is not difficult to find a potential host in the neighboring area. People are meeting increasingly on screens, discussing online and purchasing goods domestic and overseas, paying through Internet payment system.To summarize, although the sharing economy is not perfect at present because of concerns in insurance, legal liability, safety and the like, I believe, quite firmly, that it represents the future trend and has the power to change the world for the convenience and flexibility it brings to us. Just as the old Chinese saying goes, the defects cannot obscure掩盖the virtues of a splendid jad e瑕不掩瑜, and I assume it also applies to the sharing economy.(400 words)。

TEM 8 2015 Writing
There has been a new trend in economic activity- the sharing economy. The biggest sector of the sharing economy is travel. You find a potential host through a website. If you both get along and they are available during your planned trip, you stand a chance of getting a place for free. In addition, people also use website and apps to rent out their cars, houses, tools, clothes and services to one another.Timemagazine has included this trend in a list titled “10 ideas that will change the world.” It said, “In an era when families are scattered and we may not know the people down the street, sharing things-even with strangers we’ve met just online-allow us to make meaningful connections.” What do you think of Time’s comment?
新东方:2015年8月22日托福阅读真题及答案解析
新东⽅:2015年8⽉22⽇托福阅读真题及答案解析 20150822阅读机经 机经词汇: altogether=fully tangible=physical sequence=series exploitation=use steadily=unvarying reflect=indicate subsequent=later 第⼀篇 考⽣回忆:本⽂主要讲述的是对于测算地球年龄的各种尝试。
⼀共是三个⽅法。
第⼀个⽅法是试图通过计算演化的速率来来推断地球年龄。
演化的速率是由⽣物来化⽯来推断的,但是这个⽅法得出来的地球年龄只有⼏百万年,和真实的地球年龄(46亿年)相距甚远。
这个⽅法的缺陷有两个,第⼀个是它默认所有的化⽯的演化速率是⼀致的,实际上不是。
第⼆个是⼀些很古⽼的化⽯极度缺失,导致计算结果有偏差。
第⼆个⽅法是试图通过海洋⾥⾯的沉淀物的厚度来推断地球年龄。
具体的计算⽅法就是⽤总体沉淀物的厚度除以每年沉淀的厚度就得到沉淀所花费的时间。
这个⽅法误差还是很⼤,主要是缺陷在于很多沉淀物与别的沉淀物混合在⼀起,形成新的沉淀物。
还有⼀些沉淀进⼊了⽔循环,测算不到。
第三个⽅法是试图通过推算海洋的年龄来推算地球的年龄,因为地球诞⽣之初就有海洋。
然后科学家(哈雷爵⼠,发现哈雷彗星)认为可以通过计算海⾥的含盐量来计算海洋的年龄,⽅法是把海洋的总含盐量除以平均每年进⼊海洋的盐量来最终得出海洋存在的年龄。
同样,这个⽅法计算出来的偏差也是很⼤,⽐地球实际年龄少了50倍。
但是这个⽅法已经是这个⼏个⽅法⾥⾯最靠谱的了,因为它⽀持了达尔⽂和赫胥黎等对于演化速率的观点。
总体⽽⾔还是很有指导意义的。
解析:本⽂在2014年3⽉1⽇以及2014年9⽉21⽇考过,已经是第三次出现在托福考试中了。
本⽂围绕测定地球的年龄的各种科学尝试这个主题展开,分别叙述了三种不同的⽅法。
值得注意的是,每⼀种⽅法的展开都是先介绍此种⽅法的原理,然后再转折去讨论这种⽅法的不⾜之处。

托福2015年8月22日综合写作真题预测1、阅读:一个什么动物在很久以前身躯很大的原因:那时候氧气含量很多plant 很多warm climate listening :1.氧气含量其实比现在还少(很多百分比,听糊涂了,这样不确定)2.plant 是很多,但是营养很少3.warm climate is actually a disadvantage, because they needed to cool off2、阅读:越来越多的人对在大公司上班失去了兴趣,转而自己开公司(self-employed):1 大公司上班有太多bureaucracy,难以实现自己的idea。
2 大公司上班工作稳定感大大不如从前。
3 大公司最近几年不提供extra benefits,比如退休金,更低的医疗保险。
听力里驳斥1 自己开公司要面对的手续会更多。
2 自己开公司明显更有风险,稳定感更不强。
3 自己开公司extra benefits 更没有保证。
3、文章是讲的关于Harappan civilization decline 的原因的三个假说。
第一个是受到游牧民族nomadic tribe 入侵。
第二个是气候变化导致农业垮了,没有食物。
第三个是水源被污造成一种通过水传播的流行病,所以就搬迁。
听力反驳:第一个是当时H 文明的地盘很大large scale 游牧民族虽然打了他几个地区但是还不至于导致他decline。
第二个是同时期的埃及文明和另一种文明同样遭受了气候变化但是都调整了农业有了surplus 的food。
所以H 也不可能因为气候变化而decline。
第三个是H 人都是出色的工程师,他们创造了先进的水系统可以防止疾病通过水传播。
4、阅读说bee 在200 million years 前就存在了的观点受到质疑,理由:1 没化石。
2 没花没食物。
3 化石结构可能不是bee 的。
speaker 反驳1.没有化石是因为那时候没树,无法preserve 化石。
2.bee 不是一定要feed on 花的,也可以是pine tree 什么的。
3.通过化学物质可以断定化石那就是bee 的。
5、Anasazi 文明突然vanished ,估计是干旱drought 造成的。
理由如下:【1】全球变暖,该文明消逝前后的1800AD 正值一场大规模的全球变暖,带来严重干旱,导致文明消逝。
【2】文明消失前,Anasazi 人已经规模的修建水利公事,但估计最后是这些公事没能保证足够的水源,使得Anasazi 人无法应对突如其来的旱灾,被迫离开家园。
【3】Anasazi 的文明消逝的非常突然with no notice,并且in a short time,说明不是一般的文明衰落的原因。
教授说,关于Anasazi 的文明突然消逝的原因很多,但至今没有定论,干旱的说法更是站不住脚。
理由如下:【1】全球变暖说。
文明消失的1800AD 前后是有一次大变暖,但考古发现Anasazi 原住地附近的树长得都很好,一点也不缺水,说明全球变暖带来的缺水说不成立。
【2】Anazia 人在几百年前就修建水利公事,而且他们完全有能力储备足够的水源,所以,这一说法也不成立。
(这一点没听好)【3】文明突然消逝,可能是由其他原因造成的。
比如瘟疫plague 和战争war.有一种理论认为,另一个强大但缺水的部落civilization 为了争夺水源和Anazia 人打仗,迫使后者离开家园。
6、综合写作passage 讲了三种可能的理论来解释一次物种大灭绝,1. sea leveldecline 造成coast living 灭绝。
2. cool climate,主要是火山活动造成的SO2 增多,导致地球变冷。
3. asteroid strikes,产生的cater 使植物得不到足够的sunshine,也是恐龙灭绝的原因。
listening 里的professor 进行一点一点的否决:1. 她说sea level 在那个时候是fluctuate,但是很graduate,所以对coast living 造不成影响因为它们能适应环境的变化。
2.SO 虽然能使地球变冷,但是大气中的SO 不怎么多,而且还为变成酸雨降到地面上。
3.asteroid 撞击地球是在12 million year ago(好像是,不太确定没在作文里写),在生物大灭绝之前发生,和这次没任何关系。
7、阅读文章说用GAS 做能源有诸多坏处。
1. 不是绿色能源; 造成温室效应。
2. 开采用的水添加了化学有毒物质,会污染饮用水体系;3. 开采时噪音和灯光会影响LOCALCOMMUNITIES;istening:进行一一反驳1.确实不是干净能源,但是风能太阳能不能满足现在需要,而且天然气产生的温室气体是煤的一半;2.污水不被吸到地面也会渗透地底同样污染水源;3.开采管道都会off 社区,还有公司会给钱,这些钱可以改善社区环境。
8、Schools in big cities do not have enough teachers, the reading believes that signing bonuses ( offering teachers cash payment,and other financial incentives) project can improve urban schools.在大城市的学校没有足够的教师,阅读认为签约奖金(提供教师现金支付,和其他财政奖励)项目可以提高城市学校。
1.Signing bonus will increase the income, usually teachers' income is low.So this project could stimulate other teacher to apply for urban schools.2.The Signing bonuses makes the teachers's salaries comparable with other professions, thus would attract capable candidates from other professionsinto teaching positions such as computer science, engineers.3.The signing bonuses will reduce teacher staffing problem at the beginningof a school term. They will not quit at the beginning of their jobs. Besides,They are legally obligated to pay back the money if they quit.听力The signing bonuses are not likely to solve the problem.1. According to a survey concerning what do teachers care the most. Salaryis not the top concern. Other factors, such as how well the schooladministration is, how well the laboratories and libraries are, or even the commute hours matter more to some experienced teachers. So the experienced teachers are not likely to apply for urban schools only for the sake of money.2. The biggest obstacle for other professions to enter teaching position isthe stressful and long process getting the teaching certification. Theyhave to quit the old jobs to prepare, which results in salary loss. If theyare preparing while doing their current job, it would be more stressful.3. it would not be a good thing to both teachers and their students if teachersare trapped in their position. Teachers can not leave schools before theypay back the bonus money, they will not in good mood, the teaching and studentwill suffer.9、【主题】野牛数量的下降Reading:1.人将它作为了source of food2.Migrators 带来的competing for grassland3.新科技的发展,如枪的发展Listening:1.人是从东部迁徙过去的,但是野牛数量下降时从西边开始的,东部也吃野牛,但是数量没有下降。
2.野牛可以在寒冷的天气下生存,有很厚的皮,还可以吃雪下面的草而牛和马在冷环境下无法存活。
过去的狩猎武器跟新武器一样有效,所以新武器出现后威力更大的说法是说不通的。
10、reading 谈到了deer 鹿的角的三种function1st 散热2nd keep from predator3rd male 用来表示他们predominantlecture 的观点:1 不对,deer 夏天过后它们的角还在grow 呢;cold 的地方还grow 呢;有些warm的地方deer 的角偏小,cold 的地方它的角偏大,所以不是用来散热的啊。
2 不对,如果是防predator 呢,那female 咋不长呢。
还有啊,在有些地方deer 是kick 击退wolf 的啊3 不对,两个deer confront each other,发出song 来传达信息,然后其中一只deer walk around,没有clear 的迹象表明是角比较小的deer walk around 了啊11、【主题】Stone 为什么能够被搬到很远的地方Reading:(1)风吹的;(2)ice 把stone 包裹起来,滑下去的时候带动stone 移动;(3)人为move。
