大学英语第四学期期末作文

1. Luxurious Buildings On Campus

1.近年来，一些大学建起豪华楼舍来提升形象；

2.有人赞同，有人反对；

3.谈谈你的观点。

【范文】

With a view to improving their image and comprehensive strength, many universities are rushing to build luxurious constructions.

Some people are in favor of this trend, because the considerably more comfortable environment could let students apply themselves to academic studies. The others who hold the opposite opinion think it not only wastes money but also disturbs the normal teaching activities.

Generally speaking, newly-built blocks help to meet the increasingly demanding requirements of the modern students. But with the breakdown of heaps of age-old buildings, their original historic significances would disappear. Most importantly, the trend towards luxury shows the commercialization of college education, which gives negative influence on students. Therefore, I strongly hope universities could attach more attention to the construction of specialties and improvement of their cultural connotation, attracting students

by their excellent teaching qualities and research achievements.

【点评】

首段直接点题，说明现象；第二段分述人们对此现象各持己见；第三段陈述自己的观点，并提出建议。

范文首段提出大学楼舍“豪华风”这一普遍现象；第二段指出赞同者认为舒适的环境能让学生更好地投入学业中，反对者认为这不仅浪费钱，而且扰乱了正常教学活动；第三段给出自己的观点---旧楼的拆除破坏了校园原有的历史意义；奢华的趋势使得大学教育商业化，给大学生带来负面影响。最后提出建议，希望大学能注重提高自身的文化内涵，加强学科建设。

第一段中With a view to意为“为了”，后面接v.-ing；第二段中apply themselves to academic studies意为“全身心投入学业”；第三段中construction of specialties 意为“专业队伍的建设”，improvement of their cultural connotation意为“提高自身文化内涵”。

2. On Buying Graduation Thesis

1.毕业论文买卖成风；

2.有人认为本科生没必要写毕业论文，有人认为有必要；

3.你的看法。

【范文】

Since graduation thesis serves as a role of evaluation, college students are

required to write academic essays focusing on their major before graduation. Afraid of not getting their degree, buying graduation thesis has become a prevailing practice.

Consequently, heated discussion on the issue has been arisen. Some don't think it is necessary to write the graduation essay while the others support the current educational system.

However, the main argument for scrapping essays is because most of them are of such a low quality. As this work is usually assigned in the last term, exactly when they are starting to hunt for jobs, it is no wonder that they are not fully focused on the task. Furthermore, the communication between student and tutor is far from adequate. Nevertheless, I still believe that thesises are something from which students can gain a lot if they put their heart into the task.

【点评】

文章首段通过毕业论文的用途引出社会现象----买卖论文成风；第二段指出不同的人对此持有不同意见；第三段结合自身观点，分析现象产生的原因：毕业论文一般是最后一学期完成，而学生忙于找工作导致论文质量低，另外学生和导师的沟通不够，最后给出自己的观点---毕业论文对于学生而言很重要，如果用心去做，学生可以从中学到很多。
