Studying Abroad
Nowadays, going abroad for studies is enjoying a striking popularity among adolescents. Importance should be attached to studying abroad.
There are a great many advantages of studying overseas. First and foremost, living and studying abroad offers students a different perspective of the world. On a university campus, international students are likely to encounter their counterparts from various countries and areas and are exposed to diverse ideas and values. What is more, overseas experience is the best opportunity for the real-life use of foreign languages. There is no better opportunity to improve second-language skills than living in the country in which it is spoken.
Generally speaking: it is my view that although going abroad is expensive and perhaps painful, the payoff is worthwhile. In the first place, in addition to knowledge, overseas students can gain precious experiences that those who stay at home will never have. Furthermore, overseas experience, frustrating and painful as it may be, is conducive to the growth of adolescents.

Jobs for Graduates
Job hunting has always been a headache for college students. Though many graduates am employed right after graduation, some are not. Most serious of all, some still have no idea where to go working even a long time after graduation.
The reasons for this phenomenon are various. On the one hand, a few years ago colleges and universities enrolled so many students in popular majors, such as economy, finance and so on that the number of graduates was greater than the need in the market. On the other hand, most graduates would rather stay in large cities without suitable job to do than go to the country.
I reckon this problem can be solved if both colleges and students take measures. First, they should research the market and develop special skills to suit its need. Second, students' attitude towards employment should be changed. They should go to small cities and country. There they can also give full play to their professional knowledge. In a word, if we pay mush attention, the situation can be improved.

Internet
In recent years, people are developing an inseparable relationship with Internet. As is known to all, it is convenient for us to click the mouse when surfing on line, either to entertain ourselves or to meet the work's needs.
On the one hand, no one denies that Internet is currently one of the must useful media in our dally life. As a college student, I get on line every day to exchange information through e-mails with my net friends. But on the other hand, a good many people admit that they are too much addicted to Internet to maintain a regular and wholesome lifestyle.
Thus, it is necessary for us to use Internet in a reasonable way and restrain from overindulgence. After all, Internet is invented to enrich our life, and to improve the efficiency of our work rather than shackle us with a chain.

4. (四)考试
Directions: For this part you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic My Views on Examinations. You should write at least 120 words and base your composition on the outline below:
1．大学都用考试来衡量学生的成绩
2．考生可能带来的副作用
3．我对考试的看法

[范文]
My Views on Examinations
In most colleges and universities the examination is used as a chief means of deciding whether a student succeeds or fails in mastering a particular subject. Although it does the job quite efficiently, its side effects are also enormous.
To begin with, examinations lower the standards of teaching. Since teachers are often judged by examination results, they are reduced to training their students in exam techniques. No subjects can be taught successfully merely through being approached with intent to take examinations. In addition, the most undesirable effect is that examinations encourage bad study habits. As the examination score is the only criterion for his academic performance, a student is driven m memorize mechanically rather than to think creatively.
In fact, few of us admit that examinations can contribute anything really important to the students' academic development. If that is the case, why cannot we make a change and devise something more efficient and reliable than examinations?

5. (五)节日
Directions: For this part you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic Which to Celebrate--the Western or Eastern Festivals? You should write at least 120 words and base your composition on the outline below:
1．年轻人日益喜欢西方节日
2．关于西方与东方节日，人们的看法不同
3．我的看法

[范文]
Which to Celebrate--the Western or Eastern Festivals?
Nowadays, the majority of young people are willing to celebrate western festivals. As a result, importance should be attached to the issue of festival celebration.
For one thing, western festiv

al celebrations are so colorful that especially the youth cannot resist all the temptation of having one. Just imagine the romantic atmosphere on St. Valentine's Day, the fun on All Fool's Day and the ecstasy brought by gills and games at Christmas. For another, Chinese festivals have their own attractions. Think about the comfort of family reunion during Spring Festival and the delicacy of national feelings on many occasions.
As for me, some fashionable western festivals are no doubt days to set aside as special. Meanwhile, I cannot afford to be absent from family gathering during many Chinese festivals. My celebration would be a combined one, some for western festivals, some for Chinese ones.

6. (六)网上交友
Directions: For this part you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic Internet Friendship. You should write at least 120 words and base your composition on the outline below:
1. 网上交友的现状
2. 我所了解的一个例子
3. 我对于网上交友的看法

[范文]
Internet Friendship
According to the recent survey by CCTV, 80% of people who surf online are there in, search of social interaction. As a consequence, the voice speaking through the other side of the line can be used to disguise aspects of a user's personality. And this might bring an unpleasant or even damaging outcome.
Numerous examples can be given, but this will suffice. One of my closest friend, Helen, started a net relationship with a man she knew as "Prince Charming". The physical contact, however, reveals that her beloved idol was a husband with wife.
In my view, first and foremost, it is true that people may gain community on the net, but this exists only in cyberspace. Furthermore, although Internet friendship can give users companionship and even romance, it often ends with failure and even disaster. It is high time that we placed great emphasis on this phenomenon.

7. (七)青少年犯罪
Directions: For this part you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic Juvenile Delinquency. You should write at least 120 words and base your composition on the outline below:
1. 青少年犯罪的现状
2. 这个问题的原因
3. 我的建议

[范文]
Juvenile Delinquency
Recently, juvenile delinquency is increasingly lower than normal age. Careful deliberation of this problem has given me several ideas as to why this should be so.
To begin with, with the rising divorce rate, some children are not properly taken care of, and are easily led astray by evildoers. What is more, inexperienced and gullible young people plunge into the illusory world of electric games, on-line chat or even pornography. Such alienation from proper social values is the slippery slope to crime.
It is my view that, first of all, the whole of society should attach great importance to the sound growth of youngsters. Furthermore, proper guidance and protection of adults and schools are vital to teenager

s. To sum up, if we exert every effort, the juvenile crime rate will undoubtedly be brought down and effectively controlled in a short while.

8. (八)我最喜爱的小说

[范文]
My Favorite Novel
My favorite novel is Around the World in Eighty Days which is written by Jules Verne. The author was born in France and devoted himself to literature and wrote several scientific romances, which gained him the name-Father of Modem Science Fiction.
This is a book of science fiction which tells us an exciting story about an English gentleman, Mr. Phileas Fogg, who makes a bet with his clubmates and manages to travel around the world in eighty days. It gives us a vivid description of the many difficulties and incidents which happen on his journey.
From this story, we can see the author's deep love for the sea, travel and adventure, which played a vital role in his life. We are also astonished and convinced by his fertile imagination and scientific and geographical knowledge.

3．结论

[范文]
The Most Unforgettable Person I Ever Know
In my fife I have met many people who are really worth recalling. But perhaps the most unforgettable person I ever know is my English teacher.
What frequently brings back memories of my English teacher is his special qualifies. First of all, he gave us the greatest gift a teacher can offer--an awakening of a passion for learning. He not only led us to an appreciation of the beauty and perfection of English language and literature, but also aroused our great interest in exploring something deeper in this field. Second, I was attracted by his lively wit. I remember that we students always anticipated his class with great eagerness because his lecture were humorously delivered, never failing to provoke chuckles or loud laughs.
Although it is nearly two years since I attended his last class, he is the talk of our old classmates, and I know part of him has already stayed in my heart.

[范文]
Statistics in People's Daily Expenses in Xi'an
What is shown in the table above indicates that dramatic changes have taken place in the daily expenses in Xi'an from 1995 to 1999. The expenses on food have declined by 30% while those on closing and recreation have increased respectively by 90/0 and 7%.
There are two factors accounting for these changes. In the first place, the risen income resulting from economic growth plays a vital role in the less expense on food. In the second place, when food presents no worry to the average, people begin to focus more of their interest on handsome appearance and happy leisure time. As a result of such a shift, spending on clothing and recreation increases year by year.
From the analyses made above, with the further growth in economy and more changes in life style, the tendency indicated in the table will continue in the better direction.
