近年住在大城市的现象已经引起人们的广泛关注,越来越多得人选择住在大城市是因为大城市基础设施健全且工资水平较高,除了好处,住在大城市的挑战也成为人们关注话题。
首先,最明显的问题是交通。
在大城市里,到处交通堵塞是很常见的现象,尤其是高峰期。
很多人不得不花费大量的时间在通勤上。
其次,随着大城市的汽车和公交车数量的增加,空气污染已成为在大城市生活的另一个劣势,这些污染很有可能会危及人们的健康。
最后,生活在大城市的人会有承担更多的生活和工作压力,这对他们的心理健康也很不利。
在接下来几年这种现象会保持什么样的趋势呢?在我看来,住在大城市的人口会因享受大城市的便利而不断增加,然而人们也应该注意到生活在大城市的弊端,想要应对各种挑战最好是自己时刻保持状态良好。

2018年12月四级真题作文范文(毕业后的创业挑战)
【作文三参考范文】
The Challenges of Starting a Career after Graduation
Facing the rising employment pressure,a host of college graduates choose to start a career instead of looking for a regular job in a company.As we all know that,starting a career is beneficial to realize one’s own dreams and value.However,it is also widely acknowledged that stating a career will be inevitably confronted with numerous challenges.
When it comes to the challenges that we may meet in the process of staring a career,the main ones can be listed as follows.First of all,as freshmen who have just entered into the society,it is obvious that college graduates lack related experience,which will increase the rate of failure they may encounter during starting a career.Being short of entrepreneurial experience is one of difficulties that college graduates need to overcome.In addition,the collection of money is another problem they should solve urgently.Otherwise,there is no possibility of starting a career. Although starting a career after graduation has so many challenges to be solved,college graduates still need take a positive attitude towards it.Moreover,prudent consideration and entrepreneurial spirit are also necessary for graduates to start a career.
【四级写作范文译文】
面对日益增加的竞争压力,众多大学生选择自己创业,而非选择一家公司过朝九晚六的生活。
尽管创业有助于个人实现自我价值和梦想,但众所周知的是,创业同样不可避免地会面临很多挑战。
提及刚毕业大学生创业可能面临的困难,主要的挑战如下所述。
首先,作为刚步入社会的新人,大学生在工作经验方面显然很是欠缺,这就增加了他们在创业过程中失败的几率。
缺乏经验只是挑战之一。
此外,资金的筹措是刚毕业大学生创业过程中另一个需要亟待解决的问题,缺乏资金则创业无门。
尽管刚毕业就创业面临着众多困难,但是大学生仍旧需要对创业保持积极乐观的态度,而且,审慎的态度和创业的精神也是刚毕业大学生创业必不可少的品质。

A device that weighs less than one kilogram is part of a mission that will allow scientists to deliver fourth generation or4G mobile coverage to the moon in2019.If successful,the tiny device will provide the moon with its first ever mobile phone network.The lunar network will support high definition streaming of video and data between the moon and earth.The network is part of a mission to the moon.This is a project with the goal of landing the first privately paid for mission to the moon.The4G mission is set to launch from Cape Canaveral in the United States on a space X Falcon9rocket in2019.Mission to the moon intends to establish and test the first elements of a communications network on the moon.The scientists working on the project opted to build a4G rather than a fifth generation or5G network.This is because fifth generation networks are still in testing and trial phases.This means that a5G network may not yet be stable enough to work on the moon’s surface.
Question1:What are scientists planning to do?
Question2:Why did scientists choose to set up a4G network in their mission?
News2

Question3:What does the news item say about the fire?
Question4:What had City Hall planned to do?
News3
Potato chips in Japan are being sold for6X their normal price.This is after the country’s main manufacturer stopped sales due to a potato shortage.Storms and floods and its main potato growing region last year caused the worst harvest and more than3decades.Local media reports suggest Calbee and its main rival Koike-ya are halting almost50products.
“We don’t know when we’ll be able to restart”,a company spokesman said.Snack lovers are panic buying and many supermarket shelves are bare.Japanese laws limit the amount of imported potatoes that can be used in Japanese made products.Japan says fear of disease is its main reason to block fresh imports.It still only allows potatoes from selected US states.This is only at certain times and on condition that they are processed at factories based near Japanese ports.
But global warming has raised the possibility that domestic produce could be seriously affected by rare weather events more often.
Question5:What problem is Japan facing?
Question6:Why does Japan limit the import of potatoes?
Question7:What might affect Japanese domestic produce?
Conversation1
M:Mr.Brown’s lectures are so boring.
W:Yes,he is not a very exciting speaker.But the subject is interesting.
M:During every one of his lectures,I try to listen I really try.But after about10minutes my mind begins to wander and I lose concentration.But I see that you seem to be OK.How do you stay focused through the entire hour?
W:Well,what I do is keep my pen moving.
M:What do you mean?
W:It’s a method of active concentration I read about.One of the most effective ways to concentrate is to write things down.But it has to be done by hand,not typing on a keyboard.You see writing by hand forces you to actually engage with what you’re learning in a more physical way.
M:Do you review your notes afterwards then?
W:Sometimes but that’s not important.My notes may or may not be useful but the point is that by writing down what Mr.Brand says I can follow his line of thinking more easily.In fact,sometimes I draw a little too.
M:You draw in class and that helps me pay attention?
W:Yes,honestly it works for me.I just draw little lines and nonsense really.It was also in that article I read.It can keep the mind active,prevent getting bored and help to concentrate.Again the point is to listen hard while keeping the pen moving.If I’m at home and I need to study what I do is read out loud.It has a similar effect to writing by hand.It helps memorize information in a physical way.
Question8:What does the man think of Mr.Brown’s lectures?
Question9:What does the woman do during Mr.Brown’s lectures?
Question10:Why does the woman draw in class?
Question11:What does the woman say about reading out loud?
Conversation2
M:And where is this?
F:These photos are from the Taj Mahal in India.We went there about ten years ago for our honeymoon.
M:Was it romantic.
F:Yeah.The Taj Mahal was a very romantic place.The guide told us there is a famous love story behind this building that all Indians learn in school.I think it was during the1600and the princess at that time died while giving birth to her14th child.The Emperor loved the princess so much and was so sad when she died that he ordered the palace to be built in her honor.
M:Wow!That sounds very romantic.It looks amazing.
F:Yes it’s gorgeous.It’s also larger in real life than it looks in the photos.The building is very tall and there are gardens in a wall around it all.It’s all built in this white stone and some walls of the building are decorated with jewels.
M:It must have been very crowded when you were there.
F:Yes it’s a very famous tourist destination.So there are thousands of visitors every day.
M:Was the rest of India crowded?
F:Yes,very crowded in many cities.It was sometimes so crowded that it was difficult to walk along the streets especially through busy markets.And there are so many cars.Traffic was terrible but the people were friendly.The culture is amazing and we had a great time.
M:What about the food?
F:the Indian food is great.There are lots of different dishes to try and every region has its own special food.
Question12:For what purpose did the woman go to India?
Question13:Why was the Taj Mahal built?
Question14:What does the woman say about the Taj Mahal?
Question15:What is the woman‘s impression of Indian cities?
Passage1
A Pew Research Center survey of more than1000Americans conducted in April2016finds that Americans continue to express largely positive views about the current state of their local public libraries.For instance around three quarters say that public libraries provide them with the resources they need and66percent say the closing of their local public library would have a major impact on their community.Although notably just33percent say this would have a major impact on them personally or on their family.A majority of Americans feel libraries are doing a good job of providing a safe place for people to hang out or spend time as well as opening up educational opportunities for people of all ages and roughly half think their libraries contribute a lot to their communities in terms of helping spark creativity among young people and providing a trusted place for people to learn about new technologies.As in past Pew Research Center surveys of library use the April2016survey also measured Americans usage of and engagement with libraries. Overall,53percent of Americans ages16and older have had some interaction with the puppet library in the past year either through an in person visit or using a library Web site some48percent of adults specifically visited a library in the past12months.A modest increase from the44percent who said that in late2015.
Question16:What do most Americans say about local public libraries?
Question17:How can local public libraries benefit young people?
Question18:What does the2016survey show about adult library users?
Passage2
A Savannah cat is a crossbreed between a domestic cat and a medium-sized wild African cat called the Serval.The unusual cross became popular among breeders at the end of the1990s.And in 2001,the International Cat Association accepted it as a new registered breed.The savannahs are tall and slim and can weigh up to nine point one kilograms,making them one of the largest breeds of cats that people can own.They have a spotted code similar to that of many types of wild cats and their ears are very large.They are also commonly compared to dogs in their loyalty and can be trained to walk on a lead and to fetch,and often noted characteristic of the Savannah is its jumping ability.They are known to jump on top of doors and high cabinets.Some can leap about2.5 metres high from a standing position.Cats are typically known for being very inquisitive and so are the Savannahs.They often learn how to open doors and cupboards.Many Savannah cats do not fear water and will play with or even dive into water.Some owners even shower with their Savannah Cats,presenting a water bowl to Savannah may also prove a challenge,as some will promptly begin to bat all the water out of the bowl until it is empty using their front paws. Question19:What do we learn about the savannah cat?
Question20:What is characteristic of Savannah cats?
Question21:What do some people do with their Savannah cats?
Passage3
When children start school for the very1st time parents often feel a sense of excitement coupled with a touch of sadness at the end of an era.This is the start of a new adventure for children playing and interacting with new friends sharing,taking turns and settling into a new routine.
But of course,this is not the start of your child’s education which in fact began at birth.Back then, you would have been your child’s most influential teachers.During this time at home,your child would have learnt more than at any other period in their life.During your child’s first year in school much time will be spent in learning to read and they need to know that this is fun and worthwhile.Your child will naturally copy you so it is important that you are seen reading and enjoying books newspapers and magazines rather than just absorbed in screens.Ultimately an excellent education should be a close partnership between parents and teachers.A child’s year splits fairly neatly into thirds:a3rd at school,a3rd asleep and a third awake at home or on holiday. Irrespective of the quality of a school a child‘s home life is of key importance.It is the determining factor of their academic success.Your child may have started on a new journey but your work is far from finished.
Question22:How do parents feel when their children start going to school?
Question23:What does the passage say about children’s education?
Question24:What should parents do for the success of their children’s education?
Question25:What does the passage say is the key factor of loinbo’s academic success?

Section B
Directions:In this section,you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs.Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived.You may choose a paragraph more than once.Each paragraph is marked with a letter.Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet2. Food-as-Medicine Movement Is Witnessing Progress
[A]Several times a month,you can find a doctor in the aisles of Ralph’s market in Huntington Beach,California,wearing a white coat and helping people learn about food.On one recent day, this doctor was Daniel Nadeau,wandering the cereal aisle with Allison Scott,giving her some idea on how to feed kids who persistently avoid anything that is healthy.“Have you thought about trying fresh juices in the morning?”he asks her.“The frozen oranges and apples are a little cheaper, and fruits are really good for the brain.Juices are quick and easy to prepare,you can take the frozen fruit out the night before and have it ready the next morning.”
[B]Scott is delighted to get food advice from a physician who is program director of the nearby Mary and Dick Allen Diabetes Center,part of the St.Joseph Hoag Health alliance.The center’s ‘Shop with Your Doc’program sends doctors to the grocery store to meet with any patients who sign up for the service,plus any other shoppers who happen to be around with questions.
[C]Nadeau notices the pre-made macaroni(通心粉)-and-cheese boxes in Scott’s shopping cart and suggests she switch to whole grain macaroni and real cheese.“So I’d have to make it?”she asks,her enthusiasm fading at the thought of how long that might take,just to have her kids reject it.“I’m not sure they’d eat it.They just won’t eat it.”
[D]Nadeau says sugar and processed foods are big contributors to the rising diabetes rates among children.“In America,over50percent of our food is processed food,”Nadeau tells her.“And only 5percent of our food is plant-based food.I think we should try to reverse that.”Scott agrees to try more fruit juices for the kids and to make real macaroni and cheese.Score one point for the doctor,
zero for diabetes.
[E]Nadeau is part of a small revolution developing across California.The food-as-medicine
movement has been around for decades,but it’s making progress as physicians and medical institutions make food a formal part of treatment,rather than relying solely on medications(药物). By prescribing nutritional changes or launching programs such as‘Shop with your Doc’,they are
trying to prevent,limit or even reverse disease by changing what patients eat.“There’s no question
people can take things a long way toward reversing diabetes,reversing high blood pressure,even
preventing cancer by food choices,”Nadeau says.
[F]In the big picture,says Dr.Richard Afable,CEO and president of ST.Joseph Hoag Health,
medical institutions across the state are starting to make a philosophical switch to becoming a
health organization,not just a health care organization.That feeling echoes the beliefs of the
Therapeutic Food Pantry program at Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital,which
completed its pilot phase and is about to expand on an ongoing basis to five clinic sites throughout
the city.The program will offer patients several bags of food prescribed for their condition,along
with intensive training in how to cook it.“We really want to link food and medicine,and not just
give away food,”says Dr.Rita Nguyen,the hospital’s medical director of Healthy Food Initiatives.
“We want people to understand what they’re eating,how to prepare it,the role food plays in their
lives.”
[G]In Southern California,Loma Linda University School of Medicine is offering specialized
training for its resident physicians in Lifestyle Medicine—that is a formal specialty in using food
to treat disease.Research findings increasingly show the power of food to treat or reverse diseases,
but that does not mean that diet alone is always the solution,or that every illness can benefit
substantially from dietary changes.Nonetheless,physicians say that they look at the collective
data and a clear picture emerges:that the salt,sugar,fat and processed foods in the American diet
contribute to the nation’s high rates of obesity,diabetes and heart disease.According to the World
Health Organization,80percent of deaths from heart disease and stroke are caused by high blood
pressure,tobacco use,elevated cholesterol and low consumption of fruits and vegetables.
[H]“It’s a different paradigm(范式)of how to treat disease,”says Dr.Brenda Rea,who helps run the family and preventive medicine residency program at Loma Linda University School of Medicine.The lifestyle medicine specialty is designed to train doctors in how to prevent and treat disease,in part,by changing patients’nutritional habits.The medical center and school at Loma Linda also has a food cupboard and kitchen for patients.This way,patients not only learn about which foods to buy,but also how to prepare them at home.
[I]Many people don’t know how to cook,Rea says,and they only know how to heat things up.
That means depending on packaged food with high salt and sugar content.So teaching people
about which foods are healthy and how to prepare them,she says,can actually transform a
patient’s life.And beyond that,it might transform the health and lives of that patient’s family.
“What people eat can be medicine or poison,”Rea says.“As a physician,nutrition is one of the
most powerful things you can change to reverse the effects of long-term disease.”
[J]Studies have explored evidence that dietary changes can slow inflammation(炎症),for example,or make the body inhospitable to cancer cells.In general,many lifestyle medicine physicians recommend a plant-based diet—particularly for people with diabetes or other inflammatory conditions.
[K]“As what happened with tobacco,this will require a cultural shift,but that can happen,”says
Nguyen.“In the same way physicians used to smoke,and then stopped smoking and were able to talk to patients about it,I think physicians can have a bigger voice in it.”
36.More than half of the food Americans eat is factory-produced.
37.There is a special program that assigns doctors to give advice to shoppers in food stores.
38.There is growing evidence from research that food helps patients recover from various illnesses.
39.A healthy breakfast can be prepared quickly and easily.
40.Training a patient to prepare healthy food can change their life.
41.One food-as-medicine program not only prescribes food for treatment but teaches patients how to cook it.
42.Scott is not keen on cooking food herself,thinking it would simply be a waste of time.
43.Diabetes patients are advised to eat more plant-based food.
ing food as medicine is no novel idea,but the movement is making headway these days.
45.Americans’high rates of various illnesses result from the way they eat.
