五、站得高 看得远 Directions: Study the following drawing carefully and write an essay in which you should 1) describe the drawing, 2) interpret its meaning, and 3) point out its implications in our life.? You should write about 160—200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points) 范文1: Drawings can be useful tools; a simple picture may reveal a profound truth. The illustration above, for example, is far from complicated, and yet carries deep implications; from the top of a mountain one can see clear and far. Such an image draws attention to the fact that people tend to be distracted by immediate benefits, or deterred by present difficulties. If one was to stand higher and take a broader view, one could make wise, long-term decisions, as well as have a clearer sense of how to solve any given problem. The importance of keeping things in perspective is of practical significance to university students especially. When students face difficult decisions such as choosing between majors or careers, or deciding whether to continue with postgraduate education, they should consider their future life in broad terms. If you allow yourself to become preoccupied by immediate interests or discouraged by current obstacles, you might not make the wisest decisions. Nevertheless, it is important to realize that viewing our lives from a far is not equal to aiming for an unattainable goal. Inexperienced youth must be careful to realistically create and pursue their ambitions.? It is best to look beyond temporary needs and problems and keep one's present and future life in perspective.六、挥霍时间金钱VS为未来充电 Directions: Study the following set of cartoons carefully and write an essay in which you should 1) describe the cartoons, 2) state its main idea, and give your comment. You should write about 160—200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points) 范文1: These two cartoons show two contrasting scenes. While the male student spends all his time and money playing Internet games, the female student studies diligently. One could easily argue that a bright future awaits the students who study hard, while those who waste tuition playing games have little to look forward to. The above images encourage students to value their time in school and take advantage of educational opportunities.? While students dream of being accepted into college for years, they often become lost once admitted. Without their parents' constant support and advice, or because of limited communication with teachers, many students are unable to focus on their future goals. Such confusion leads some to forget their studies and resort to playing on the Internet, among other forms of recreation. Students should not only keep their ambitions in mind, but also seriously strive towards them. Without a clear purpose, one might easily waste crucial years neglecting one's studies. Constantly playing on the Internet leads to failure, while continuously studying guarantees success. Students need to appreciate their time in school, and work hard in order to ensure a good future. 七、图画描述刘翔 Directions: Study the following picture carefully and write an essay in which you should 1) describe the picture, 2) interpret its meaning, and 3) support your view with examples. You should write about 160—200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points) This picture captures a scene from the Olympics in Athens. People all over the world watch in excitement as Liu Xiang moves towards the finish line in the 110 meter hurdle race. His spirit and determination inspire all, and show how valuable giving your all can be. Life is a continuous process of fighting and one cannot achieve success without effort. Sparing no effort shows that one fears no difficulties. Striving for a definite goal with such perseverance and determination is a valuable quality. One should not stop trying until one has obtained one's dream. Everybody should have this spirit of persistence because one cannot attain anything without exerting oneself. One of the waiters at Tsinghua University, for example, received a full score on his TOEFL examination. He earned this score through diligence and self discipline. Regardless of the task you are undertaking, whether it be preparing for a university examination, or working towards a career,you should always give all your effort. Only when you work hard can you achieve success. Although one might think that one can complete a job without sparing any effort, this is never true. Perhaps being a top student in primary or middle school did not take much effort or energy. Or perhaps you did not work as hard as your classmates and were still admitted into a university. Every person's life includes many troubles therefore it is important to both work as hard as possible and be prepared for life's difficulties. 八、甘愿做一颗螺丝钉 Directions: Study the following picture carefully and write an essay in which you should 1) describe the picture, 2) interpret its meaning, and 3) point out its implications in our life. You should write about 160—200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points) 范文1: The scene above depicts multiple rows of students in the midst of a graduation ceremony. Their academic caps and gowns signify that they have successfully completed their courses and are preparing to enter into society. The hand in the foreground holds two small screws, implying that such students are the screws that hold society together and ensure it functions properly. Such an analogy encourages us to consider our purpose and place in life. While many people harbor grand desires to improve and change their respective communities and countries, not a single unit could stay together without the screws that hold things in place. Success, therefore, depends on the smaller tools, or pieces, that keep structures from tumbling. Just as screws are the small yet essential objects that strengthen and sustain, we should strive to steadily support the society we live and work within. Without our earnest efforts, communities could not be so securely maintained. The screws also promote a particular sense of perspective. Human society is vast and seemingly boundless, and it also important to be modest. Regardless of how great one's achievements may be, one is still only a single screw in the large machinery. But if you must be a screw, be a strong and shining one!TOP 1 图表作文 知识成就未来 Study the following chart carefully and write an essay in which you should 1) analyze the chart, 2) interpret its meaning, and suggest possible measure to take. The chart shows that the U.S. workforce, about 145 million in number, matched job demands well in 2000. However, the gap between workforce and jobs, especially skilled jobs, appeared soon after 2001. The shortage of skilled workers is estimated to grow to about 5.5 million in 2010, and 25 million in 2020. The cartoonist warns that the supply of labor is about to fall seriously short of demand, which means that the economical development will be hampered by the scarcity of labor, especially skilled workers, over the next 20 years. The labor squeeze may result from the fact that the existing workforce is going to get out soon, and the feeder pool just isn’t coming up. Possible precautions against the threat of labor shortage may include: providing effective job training for most employees, bidding up wages for skilled workers, tempting older workers to stay on the jobs they are skilled in, and lobbying the government to raise the share of skilled immigrants. Anyhow, what Americans are to do least is ignore the severity of the problem. TOP 2 图画作文 网络与人 新东方 Part B Directions: 1. Study the following picture carefully and write an essay of at least 200 words. 2. Your essay must be written neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. 3. Your essay should meet the requirements below: 1) Write out the messages conveyed by the picture. 2) Give your comments. In recent years, people are developing an inseparable relationship with Internet. As is vividly depicted in the picture, it is convenient for us to click the mouse when surfing on line, either to entertain ourselves or to meet the work’s needs. Actually on-line visiting has become a routine activity in our everyday life. However, it seems rather ironic to use a chain instead of normal cable to connect with the mouse in this picture. The exaggerative and impressive portrayal has subtly revealed the duality of the relationship between man and Internet. Discussion on the duality has become very popular in newspapers or in people’s chats. On the one hand, no one denies that Internet is currently one of the most useful media in our daily life. People from all walks of life are benefiting considerably from its powerful function of information communication. As a college student, I get on line everyday to learn the news, to study English by registering for web courses, to exchange information through e-mails with my net friends and to download my favorite music, flash, film and pictures. Being a veteran on-line shopper, I frequently purchase books, CDs at much lower prices. 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. Cyber-living resembles the experience of looking constantly into a kaleidoscope which displays both colored patterns and illusions. Once indulged in the fictitious world, people can barely concentrate on real life. Consequently, many students just chat on line or play computer games immoderately everyday, skipping many important classes. Such a waste of time inevitably leads to their failure in the exams.Therefore, 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, to connect you and me, and to improve the efficiency of our work rather than shackle us with a chain.今年的英语考题可能在以下题目中出题,请大家好好准备:1、创新 2、科技的发展(如Internet)3、知识就是力量4诚信5、环境保护 6、应用文写作7、奥运会8、WTO 9、哲理性漫画 10、百分比和增减速度图表当然6、7、8出题的可能性不大,请关注9和10的写作。51Test有人分析说,写作题的变化从最早的提纲作文,发展到图表和图画作文,而且后者在近年出现的比率更大,考生也应该对这两类作文形式加以关注。写作在考试形式上也越考越灵活,总体上放弃了机械做题,避免考生猜题、押题,每年出题都在求变,考生就应该把握题型规律,掌握模式化语言,以不变应万变。背范文、照搬句子在现在的写作考试中已经不那么有效了,但是如果能掌握写作的框架结构和精彩句型就能占据一部分优势,这些将构筑起一篇文章以及亮出它的“闪光点”,得到评卷老师的欣赏。图表作文的写作要看清数据的变化,通过坐标和图表纵横比较说明事实,并且从表面看到实质,了解变化反映的深层意义。同时考生还应该掌握图表术语,比如“增长、降低、突增至……恢复稳定”等一批单词和词组的表达。图画作文的难点在于对图画信息的描述是否准确,侧重锻炼考生看图说话的能力,如果表达不全的话就要考虑用迂回来绕开,但是不能偏离主题。然后要点破图画的寓意,分析背后的原因,这是文章的重头戏,所以在复习中就要多看些报刊文摘的图片,培养对图片的敏感和逻辑思维能力,多关注社会热点也是很好的锻炼方式。汪海涛强调,写作最重要的是不能跑题,在做题前列出提纲和主干来是很有必要的,考生在复习中也要做些这方面的练习。在考研进行到这最后的阶段,查缺补漏最关键,但是在做错题时不能悲观失望,应该想到的是自己又攻克了一个难关,多掌握了一个知识点,调整好考试心态,增强信心,迎接考试。范文一(创新)With the economic globalization becoming increasingly intensive, invention or innovation has become one of central topic around the world. Many countries see it as the key to develop their economy. Our government, with no exception, regard it as “ the soul of our nation.” What, however, can we benefit from it? First of all, invention or innovation can enhance overall national economy, which is important to heighten our nation status in the world. Additionally, if factories have the abilities in invention, the factories will be booming. As a result, they can provide our people with more jobs and it will make our nation more stable. What is more, a majority of new products may be avaible through invention. Therefore, it is also significant factor for improving our living standards. Owing to such benefits, no wonder more and more countries focus on invention today.Recognizing its importance is only the fist step to advocate invetion or innovation, and some effective measures should be taken for it. For one thing, our authority should continue to enlarge the recruit of graduate. For another, the conditions of scientists and skilled workers should be further improved. Only in this way, can “the soul of our nation” be fully embodied and our nation have a brighter future.范文二(Internet发展)Internet is becoming more and more popular in the world. As is shown in the pictures, two persons are sitting in front of their own computer in different places. they seem to be very happy owing to the accession to Internet. We can see clearly that the left fellow(guy) types a message and sends it to the right one, the message says:“David, would you have a coffee tonight?”the right one receives it and quickly replys:“sure,where?”What a convenient tool of Internet is! With the rapid development of high technologies and economy, people will get more and more benefits from the use of internet.(or: people will benefit a lot from Internet) There is no denying that COMPUTER NETWORK is an indication of social civilazation and progress. internet is an information pool , people can search anything they want by TYPING THE KEY words. For example, someone wants to know the Great Wall of China, what he/she need to do is only TO OPEN AN INTERNET EXPORER and TYPE the words:“the Great Wall”and search it, then he/she can get so many relevant links. What‘s more, people can purchase their favorite goods through the Internet instead of going shopping in CHAOTIC streets. LAST BUT NOT LEAST, people ALSO can MAKE FULL USE OF Internet to study ONLINE . From the ANALYSIS made above, we can come to (or REACH)a conclusion that we SHOULD make the BEST use of Internet, which CAN brings us a great deal of benefits. as a citizen of China we should study hard. Only in this way Can we have a brighter future and make our country flourishing(OR: PROSPEROUS)。范文三(知识就是力量)Knowledge Is Power Recently there has been a discussion regarding the issue of knowl- edge in the newspaper. As can be seen from the picture, knowledge is symbolized by a clenched fist as power. The fist sends out a message for “obedience”, threatening to crack with power any hard nut. The more demanding and challenging a task is, the more powerful the fist seems to grow. Similarly, knowledge, the strongest power for human beings, feeds up the field of science and technology. The more ad- vanced and developed a field is, the more profound knowledge seems to become. A specific example is the dunaping of Mir, Russia‘s space station. As is the case of the Russian space program, the country could no longer afford to keep Mir aloft in orbit because of lack Of financial support. Therefore, Rus- sia decided to dump the space station. The effect is both immediate and far -reaching. As far as the present is concerned, the successful launching and dumping of IVrLr has proved to the world that mankind, armed with pro- fca. md knowledge, cannot just build things but can operate them welt. For the distant impact, the once- in- a- lifetime success of/VFtr provides man with valuable and indispensable experience for manned space flight in the years to crane. Then, someday in the furore, them might appear in space more Mirs, visiting Mars, spreading friendship, parading the perfect maste- ry of knowledge. As to the best way to master knowledge, I suggest that everyone of us “ask not what others will learn from you, but what you can learn from the others.” By so doing, I sincerely believe each person, pro- tected by’ the “fist”, will be learned and knowledgeable.范文四(保护环境)A From this cartoon, we can see that at the top end of the river, is a chemical factory and a paperrnaking factory which send out and poisonous wastes. And the river has been seriously polluted, n be seen from the color of it. Along this “black” river, there are a few people selling fresh water which must have been taken from far away places. At the first glance, it is very strange to us how can people sell wa- ter along the river, but this is the case, because the water in this river is undrinkable. This presents a serious social problem——environmental pollution. With the development of economy, our living standards have been greatly improved. But we can‘ t ignore the fact the air we take in and the water we drink today are not as fresh and clean as they used to be. Some kinds of pollution can even be deadly to people. It is high time that we took some measures to solve the problem. I think we can first call people’s attention to this problem so that they will be aware of the serious consequences of it. Then,we can pass certain laws to restrain the factories from sending out wastes. Finally, we can do more resarch work to find out ways to deal with the wastes.范文四(保护环境)BKeep Square Clean, Tidy On Sunday, still on display on Tian‘ anmen Square were dozens of floats that were paraded along Chang’ an Avenue during the National Day celebrations. Thousands of people strolled on the narrow lanes be- tween the floats that fragmented the square, busily taking photos. Not far from the noisy crowds, yellow leaves fell nonchalantly from locust trees along the driveway, sending out the first signals of the coming autumn. But even if all the leaves fall, they still cannot cover the brown and black spots on the whitish stones in the huge square. Such stains of chewing gum, stale oil or some worse blemish have remained a constant pain for city cleaners since the square ‘was re- opened a few months ago after renovations to celebrate the 50th anni- versary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China. Few renovation project planners likely foresee this discouraging outcome. Originally, they merely intended to give the city a face- lift. The square was indeed impeccable when new: The-white terrazzo surface not only looks clean but it was made with materials that help prevent it from becoming slippery. However, as time goes by, the virtue becomes the vice: the sur- face attracts and accentuates dirt. As a result, China‘ s most high - profile site has to suffer the indignity of being paraded daily before the public in a humiliation state. While the tourists who litter should bear the bulk of the blame, the renovation designers should also have learned something: including the square’s sanitary maintenance issue into their consideration.范文五(求职信)
