Read the following paragraph and underline the topic sentence.The most vital difference between Muslims in America and their brothers in Europe is the U.S. enduring emphasis on religious liberty. Religion is given far more respect in the U.S. than in Europe. Think about it. The U.S. is in the midst of a resentful debate over immigration in which many Americans reject “hyphenated (带连字符的) identifies”like Mexican-American as a threat to national unity. Yet while Protestant, Catholic and Jewish Americans may disagree strongly among themselves, the religious basis of their identity is not seriously questioned by anyone. If Muslim Americans are not so readily accepted today, it is not because they are believers. In Europe, by contrast, Muslims are resented and marginalized precisely because their religion threatens strong secular (世俗的) values.18. Read the following paragraph carefully and select the best topic sentence from the four possible answers that follow the paragraph. Write the letter of your choice in the blank provided. Topic Sentence: _____________ These memories of mine have been collected slowly, over a period of years. Some readers, finding them in a magazine, have taken them for stories. The assumption that I have “made them up”is surprisingly prevalent (流行的), even among people who know me. I do not understand the reason for these doubts. Can it be that the public takes for granted that anything written by a professional writer is necessarily untrue? The professional writer is looked on perhaps as a “story-teller”, like a child who has fallen into that habit and is mechanically scolded by his parents even when he protests that this time he is telling the truth.A. I am essentially a story-teller.B. I am often accused of telling lies.C. The fact that I am a professional writer is often doubted by my readers.D. The memories of mine are often taken as stories by some of my readers.IV. 重新组合段落( 5 points, 1 point each )Rearrange the following numbered sentences so that they will be read logically.

My father had taught me, on his lap, before I started school - A Child’s, Garden of Verses, and Eugene Field, his favorite poet.21. I remember a storybook, which soon disappeared, about some Belgian children along a canal escaping from Germans.22. At any rate, these are all the books I recall from my childhood household.23. From an early time, I had been a great reader.24. A few volumes had come with us, I think, from Seattle to Minneapolis, but they were for looking at the pictures on the living-room floor while a grown-up watched, not for reading.25. But after our parents’death, almost no books were permitted.26. Was it to save electricity, or because books could give “ideas” that would make us too big for our boots?V. 标出与段落内容无关的句子( 10 points)Read the following paragraph and cross out the TWO irrelevant sentences.It was mid-June the morning we graduated, and I fainted in the huge hall for the Commencement (毕业典礼) from the heat. Afterwards Frani’s parents took several of us to lunch at the Silver Swan. My grandparents had not come for the occasion, but sent me a check for a trip to Europe —that was a graduation present, and a wedding present as well, he wrote. Yes, the decision of marriage had eventually been made. We had already had an interview with the curate (牧师助理), and it was exactly one week after the Commencement and my twenty-first birthday when we “stood up” together in the chapel. John told me that I would never become a good actress. We had a one-night honeymoon at an inn in Briarcliff, and there all of a sudden I had an attack of panic. As we climbed into the big bed, I knew, too late, that I had done the wrong thing. To marry a man without loving him, which was what I had just done, not really perceiving it, was a wicked action, I saw. Stiff with remorse and terror, I lay under the thin blanket through a good part of the night.VI. 写信(40 points)Write a letter according to the following situation: you came across a piece of news from China Daily that Zhaoyang High School in Gansu Province is recruiting English teachers. You (Li Ming), an English major going to graduate next summer, decide to apply for it.

Answer:17.Read the following paragraph and underline the topic sentence.What has happened to the American male? For a long time, he seemed utterly confident in his manhood, sure of his masculine (男性的) role in society, easy and definite in his sense of sexual identity. The frontiersmen(边远地区居民) of James Fenimore Cooper, for example, never had any concern about masculinity; they were men, and it did not occur to them to think twice about it. Even well into the twentieth century, the heroes of Dreiser, of Fitzgerald, of Hemingway remain men. But one begins to detect a new theme emerging in some of these authors, especially in Hemingway: the theme of the male hero increasingly preoccupied with proving his virility(男子气概)to himself. And by mid-century, the male role had plainly lost its rugged clarity of outline. Today men are more and more conscious of maleness not as a fact but as a problem. The ways by which American men affirm their masculinity are uncertain and obscure. There are multiplying signs, indeed, that something has gone badly wrong with the American male’s conception of himself.18.Read the following paragraph carefully and select the best topic sentence from the four possible answers that follow the paragraph.Topic Sentence:“Music,”the teacher would tell his pupils,“is a state of being. It is not so much knowledge and know-how .If you want to be good at playing an instrument, let music get hold of you first and this will in turn get hold your muscles and make them produce the music that is now inside you. How can music come out of an instrument if it is not first put into it? And who is to put it there? The composer, the maker of the instrument, the printed score or the player?”A. If you want to be good at playing an instrument, let music get hold of you first.B. It is about stages of learning to play an instrument.C. Only when the player puts the music into the instrument, can music come out of it.2D. Only when the maker of the instrument puts the music into the instrument, can music come out of it.Ⅳ.重新组合段落（本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分）Rearrange the following numbered sentences so that they will read logically. Put the numbers in proper sequence in the boxes provided below.19.When the eyes begin to move, this is a sign of another change─the person is dreaming.20.If a person continues to sleep, she or he enters a new stage, a more active stage.21.There are two kinds of sleep: active sleep and passive sleep.22.Throughout the night, people alternate between passive and active to being active, and thendreaming occurs.23.And as the brain becomes more active, the eyes begin to move rapidly.24.This stage is known as slow-wave sleep because the brain waves move in a very slow, regular rhythm.25.The body goes through several changes: the brain temperature rises, the amount of blood in the brain increases, the body becomes very still, and the brain goes from being very inactive to being active.Ⅴ.标出与段落内容无关的句子（本大题共10分）Read the following paragraphs and cross out the irrelevant sentences.To the American visitor, Iceland is a very interesting country, partly because it is different in so many ways from what he or she is used to seeing at home. There are quite a few things that are not done, or that do not exist on the island─quite a few no’s.There is no pollution, for instance. No dogs are permitted in Reykjavik, the capital. There is no television on Thursdays or during the entire month of July, and only three hours of black-and-white TV the rest of the time. Because many people now worry about the effect that TV has on the young. There is no hard liquor on Wednesdays and no beer at any time. There are no handguns; even the police do not carry them. Crime is so rare that there is only one jail of thirty-five cells in the entire land─an admirable figure, even for a small country of 222，000 people.There is no army, air force or navy. There is no tipping for anything. There are no large stores open on Saturdays and on Sundays. Since Iceland is situated just under the Arctic Circle, there is no darkness in summer and no daylight in winter. Therefore, people prefer summer to winter. But thanks to Gulf Stream, the climate is rather mild, with temperatures ranging from thirty-four degrees Fahrenheit to fifty-two degrees in July.The rules on television, liquor, and guns are the result of governmental decision. But the absence of pollution is due in great part to the hot springs that come out of the ground; in fact,3Iceland uses only 3 percent of all its available power.Ⅵ.写信(本大题共40分)Write a letter of complaints according to the following situation: You (Liu Dan)bought an air conditioner in Sun Appliances and had it installed the other day, but you found that the fan made too much noise when the machine operated. Y ou demand the store to senda representative to check it up. In your letter, provide the specific defects of the airconditioner, the date of purchase, the serial number of it and the way to contact you.(150-200words)4。

For early explorers and settlers, it meant bare survival in the face of ‘hostile’elements and natives: carving out a place and a way of keeping alive. But the word can also suggest survival of a crisis or disaster, like a hurricane or a wreck, and many Canadian poems have this kind of survival as a theme; what you might call ‘grim’survival as opposed to ‘bare’survival. For French Canada after the English took over it became cultural survival, hanging on as a people, retaining a religion and a language under an alien government. And in English Canada now while the Americans are taking over it is acquiring a similar meaning. There is another use of the word as well: a survival can be a vestige(痕迹) of a vanished order which has managed to persist after its time is past, like a primitive reptile. This version crops up in Canadian thinking too, usually among those who believe that Canada is obsolete.18.Read the following paragraph carefully and select the best topic sentence from the four possible answers that follow the paragraph.Topic Sentence:______________________Before planting, check to see if the tree roots are moist; if they are not, soak them in water for two or more hours until they appear soggy. While the roots are soaking, find a sunny spot in which to plant the tree. The soil should be a dark brown color—indicating that it is rich in nutrients. If the soil is in poor condition, mix in peat moss or potting soil. Next, dig a hole big enough to allow the tree roots room to spread out. Place the tree in the hole and, while holding the tree straight, fill in the hole with dirt; pack the dirt lightly. Water the tree every day for a week so that the roots can take hold in the ground.A. We should consider the color of the soil before we transplant a tree.B. To transplant a tree, we check the tree's roots first, then find a sunny spot with soil rich in nutrients and finally dig a hole to place the tree in it.C. A botanical garden is a garden where a wide range of plants are grown for scientific research and educational purposes.D. Successfully transplanting a tree requires careful attention to details.Ⅳ.重新组合段落(5 points, i point each)Rearrange the following numbered sentences so that they will read logically. Put the numbers in proper sequence in the boxes provided below.19.Coaches and athletes often feel tension before big games because they do not want to commit errors that might cause their teams to lose.20.There are many situations which cause pressure and tension to build up inside of us.21.We suffer from fear of making an embarrassing mistake during the performance.22.Performing in front of an audience commonly produces pressure.23.Mnay of us also experience tension when we are among new people.24.I feel tension right now as I write this paragraph because I want it to be the best paragraph I've written this semester.25.In such situations, we become quiet out of fear that other people will label us as “loud mouths”.26.No matter how har we try to avoid pressure and tension, there will inevitably be times when breathing becomes hard and fear gets a grip on us that is difficult to loosen.Ⅴ.Read the following paragraph and cross out the irrelevant sentences.As her wedding date approached, I think that I was almost as excited as my sister. She claims she did not sleep at all the week before the wedding, and I don't really think I did either. Usually I go to bed about 10∶30 and sleep until around 7:30. I know that at least two of those nights we sat up all night reviewing plans, checking to see that we had done everything on our “to do”list. Two days before the wedding, my excitement had reached such a peak that I didn't even eat. I usually enjoy eating a lot of candies every day. Maybe I had borrowed love from my sister and was living on it. but I just went sailing through the day, full of energy and not the least bit hungry. On the day of the wedding, I was up at 4:30 in the morning, shouting at everyone to get up, this was the day. I even began to get dressed for the wedding an hour before my sister did. And after I was dressed in my bridesmaid's gown, I couldn't sit down. I just paced the floor —for an entire hour. I don't think I could take having a sister get married very often.Ⅵ.写信(40 points)Write a letter of thanks according to the following situation. Once you were ill and were hospitalized for a few weeks in the Chaoyang Medical Center, Taiyuan, Shanxi province. During your stay the entire staff were kind to you. When you came back home, you wrote them a letter of thanks. In your letter, tell them how you feel now, and thank them for all they did for you.

However, other names can have a negative impact.In one study, for instance, teachers gave lower grades to essays supposedly written by boys named Hubert and Elmer than to the very same essays when they were credited to boys with more popular names.

Or, if we want to see distant happenings on earth, they use some of the previously wasted electromagnetic (电磁的) waves to carry television images which they re-create as light by whipping tiny crystals on a screen with electrons (电子) in a vacuum. Or they can bring happenings of long ago and far away as colored motion pictures, by arranging silver atoms and color-absorbing molecules (分子、微粒) to force light waves into the patterns of original reality. Or if we want to see into the center of a steel casting or the chest of an injured child, they send the information on a beam of penetrating (穿透的) short-wave X rays, and then convert it back into images we can see on a screen or photograph.Thus almost every type of electromagnetic radiation yet discovered has been used to extend our sense of sight in some way.18.

It is far from enough to read about nature, to camp occasionally, to travel around by car. Life in the country as farmers live is as distinct as can be from life in towns and cities.Of course, everyone can see this sociologically. There are so many different ways of being entertained in a city outside office or factory hours. People entertain themselves at their homes. There are few distractions on a farm and the hours of work are as long as daylight.Still, the main differences lie somewhere else. Country life is demanding and calls for many skills. One has to be a jack-of-all-trades to cope with numerous emergencies and with the varying3needs of the moment for, except on the largest farms, it is not easy to enlist the help of a specialist for each breakdown in machinery, plumbing or electricity.

A tornado forms when a layer of warm, dry air is on top of a layer of cooler, moist air. This combination of dry, warm air above wet, cool air creates a condition that causes the lower layer of air to lift up.

Masks are very useful. At Halloween, children wear masks for fun; they may, of course, also think they are disguising themselves, but chiefly theirmotive is to experience the joy of saying “ boo” to someone. Soldiers wore masks for protection, in ancient times against swords and battle-axes, in more recent times against poison gas. Bank robbers wear masks to disguise themselves, and though of course this disguise is a sort ofprotection, a robber ’s reason for wearing a mask is fairly distinct from a soldier ’Alls. of these reasons so far are easily understood, but we may have more trouble grasping the reason that primitive people use masks in religious rituals. Some ritual masks seem merely to be attempts to frighten away evil spirits, and some seem merely to be disguises so that the evil spirits will not know who the wearer is. The masks are usually made of paper. But most religious masks are worn with the idea that the wearer acquires, through a union with supernatural powers, a new identity,and thus in effect becomes—really becomes, not merely pretends to be — a new person.VI. 写信 (40 points)Write a letter to your friend according to the following situation: Y ou(Weiping) haven ’t heard from your friend(Zhijie) since the SARS outbreak.

自考英语写作试题及答案doc
自考英语写作试题及答案doc一、写作题目Instructions:1. Write an essay of about 300 words on the topic above.2. Your essay should include an introduction, a body, and a conclusion.3. Discuss the positive and negative effects of technology on education.4. Use examples to support your points.二、参考范文The advent of technology has revolutionized many aspects of our lives, and education is no exception. The integration of technology in the classroom has brought about significant changes, both positive and negative.On the positive side, technology has made education more accessible. With the internet, students can access a wealth of information at their fingertips. Online courses have opened up opportunities for learners who may not have the means or the ability to attend traditional schools. Furthermore, technology has made learning more interactive and engaging. Educational software and applications can cater to different learning styles, making the learning process more enjoyable and effective.However, the negative impacts of technology on education are also worth noting. One of the major concerns is the potential distraction it can cause. The use of smartphones and laptops in the classroom can easily divert students' attention from the lesson. Additionally, the over-reliance on technology may lead to a decline in critical thinking and problem-solving skills, as students may become accustomed to finding answers with a simple search query rather than engaging in deep thought.In conclusion, while technology has the potential to greatly enhance education, it is important for educators to find a balance. The benefits of technology should be harnessed in a way that complements traditional teaching methods, rather than replacing them. By doing so, we can ensure that the education system evolves to meet the needs of the modern world without losing the essence of what makes learning valuable.三、范文点评The essay provided is a well-structured piece that addresses the topic of technology's impact on education. It follows a clear introduction-body-conclusion format, making it easy to follow. The writer effectively discusses both the positive and negative effects of technology in education, providing a balanced view. Examples such as online courses and educational software are used to illustrate the points made, which adds credibility to the argument. The conclusion succinctly summarizes the main points and suggests a forward-looking approach to integrating technology in education.四、参考答案1. The positive effects of technology in education include increased accessibility to information and learning opportunities, as well as more interactive and personalized learning experiences.2. Negative effects may include distractions in the classroom and a potential decline in critical thinking skills due to an over-reliance on technology.3. To harness the benefits of technology, educators should aim to integrate it in a way that supports, rather than replaces, traditional teaching methods.五、写作技巧提示- Maintain a clear structure: Ensure your essay has a clear introduction, body, and conclusion.- Balance your argument: Discuss both sides of the topic to provide a well-rounded perspective.- Use examples: Support your points with relevant examples to make your essay more convincing.- Conclude effectively: Sum up your main points and suggest a solution or a way forward in your conclusion.六、结束语Education is a dynamic field that continues to evolve with the times. As technology becomes an increasingly integral part of our daily lives, it is crucial for educators andstudents alike to understand its impact and to use it as a tool for enhancing the learning experience. By doing so, we can prepare students for the future and ensure that they are equipped with the skills they need to succeed in a technology-driven world.。

自考试卷：英语写作基础21年10月自考试题及答案
自考试卷：英语写作基础21年10月自考试题及答案题目一题目要求：以“The Impact of Social Media on People’s Daily Lives”为题，请你用英语写一篇短文，分析社交媒体对人们日常生活的影响，并阐述你的观点。
答案：In today’s digital era, social media has become an integral part of people’s daily lives. The impact of social media on our lives is undeniable and has both positive and negative aspects.First and foremost, social media has revolutionized the way we communicate and connect with others. It provides us with convenient platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, where we can easily stay in touch with friends, family, and even strangers from around the world. We can share our thoughts, experiences, and photos instantly, bridging the gap of distance and time.Moreover, social media has also transformed the way we obtain and consume information. With just a few taps on our smartphones, we can access news, articles, and opinions from various sources. This immediate access to information hasempowered individuals to be more informed and aware of the world around them. However, it also poses the challenge of distinguishing reliable and accurate information from misinformation and fake news.On the other hand, the influence of social media on people’s daily lives has its downsides. One major issue is addiction. Many people find themselves addicted to constantly checking their social media feeds, seeking validation through likes and comments. This addiction can negatively impact productivity, relationships, and mental health. It is important for individuals to strike a balance and not let social media consume their entire lives.Another negative aspect is the potential for social media to create a false sense of reality. People often present an idealized version of their lives, sharing only the highlights and filtering out the struggles and challenges. This can lead to feelings of inadequacy and a constant need to compare oneself to others.In conclusion, social media has undoubtedly had a significant impact on people’s daily lives. It has changed the way we communicate, obtain information, and perceive ourselves and others. While it offers numerous benefits, it is important for individuals to be mindful of its potential drawbacks and use it in a balanced and responsible manner.题目二题目要求：请你给一封英语的邮件，邀请你的外国朋友来中国旅游，并告诉他/她一些有关中国文化和旅游景点的信息。
