预测作文
(一)Food Safety
1. 食品安全问题令人担忧。
2. 对此,你有什么看法(可从蔬菜、水果滥用农药、激素方面分析)?
【范文】
Currently, many problems concerning the safety of food have popped up.As for me, I believe at least three factors account for this issue.First, I observe that profits drive many food producers to commit illegal things.They aim to gain more money at the expense of consumers’ health.Second, the overuse of agricultural pesticide has resulted in the degradation of food quality.The excessive pesticide bears enormous health hazard for people.Furthermore, some food producers inject hormones into domestic animals so as to make them grow more quickly and thus they can turn in more profit.As a result, people’s health has been seriously disturbed.All in all, food safety is such a great concern, and we all should do establish laws and implement them effectively to avoid producing toxic foods.【点评】
首句直接点题,词组pop up指弹起,这里指食品安全突然间成了一大社会问题。文章第二部分从蔬菜生产商、水果滥用农药及激素方面阐释了食品安全问题的根源。
Observe除了有观察之意,还可以表示某人的观点;动词commit后面通常接违法或伤害性的事情,如commit a crime, commit illegal things, commit suicide等等。“以消费者的健康为代价”除了使用at the expense of 还可以使用at the cost of 或者ignoring。另外,在表达同一意思或相近意思时,此文避免了一词多用,而是采用不同的单词或词组,如劣质食品使用了problems concerning the safety of food, the degradation of food quality和toxic foods。
最后一段再次点题,并提出了万能解决方案之一,即政府和相关单位要制定法律法规。预测作文
(二)Should we help others in need?
1. 现在经常有这样的现象发生:路上有人摔倒,没人敢上前帮忙。
2. 这是人们的公德心缺失还是其他什么原因呢?
3. 你对此有何看法?
【范文】
Helping others has always been a virtue in traditional Chinese culture.But what’s strange nowadays is that people dare not show their helping hands to those in need.I would like to elaborate my views on this issue.Firstly, I think people’s moral sense has degraded.When egoism gains the upper hand, many people find it growingly hard to help others.Secondly, there is no denying that some tragic events turn out to be traps by people with evil intentions.So common people are becoming more risk-conscious and are more wary of traps and deceits.In general, I contend the idea that we should be warm-hearted and offer help as well as look out for potential hazards so as not to be deceived.【点评】
第一句话介绍背景,使用“美德”virtue一词。第二句话为转折句,除了使用but这个表示强烈转折意味的连接词,还采用了strange和首句形成鲜明对比。
文章第二部分开始阐释人们公德心(moral sense)缺乏的原因。指出原因之一为自私。此处采用了egoism, 也可使用selfishness, 但不可使用individualism,后者在英语语境中通常作褒义词讲,即崇尚自尊自立之意。原因之一是内因,原因之二是外因。Trap指陷阱,deceit指欺骗。第二段使用了内外因、主客观因素结合的方法,较全面地解释了公德心缺失的根源。
最后一段表明作者立场,提出既要坚持善良之心也要有防备之心。

(三)College Students’Living Condition
1. 反应大学生生存状况的词语从“蜗居”、“蚁族”到“鼠族”,不断
涌现。
2. 对于这种现象,你有什么看法?
【范文】
Recently, the living condition of some college students is frequently referred to as “dwelling-narrowness”.In fact, this embarrassing situation is very serious that few of us can fail to meditate on the causes of it.In the first place, it’s difficult for graduates to bear the high cost of life in big cities.Poor payment thus gives rise to bad living conditions.Next, college students are more ambitious.Many of them are eager to compete in big cities like Shanghai and Beijing, where talents are abundant and positions are limited.Refusing to go back hometown let them suffer in big cities, which indirectly make their situation worse.Generally speaking, college students should be more qualified to better themselves and adjust their goals according to the reality.【点评】
首句交待背景,用无生命的名词词组(inanimate noun phrase)作主语并使用被动语态,文章更加客观中立。
第二句话使用单词embarrassing,深入地挖掘了当今大学生生存状况艰难与大学生十年寒窗之间令人无奈的矛盾。第三句话为承上启下句,fail to do sth.表示没能、不能做某事。文章第二部分阐释了作者的个人看法。认为此社会现象的一个原因是大城市的高消费与大学生刚刚毕业收入相对较低之间产生的矛盾。第二个原因来自大学生对自身期许过高与大城市人才济济之间的矛盾。使用单词ambitious,表示雄心勃勃。在形容人才济济时,使用abundant,表示充足的。此外,文章还指出第一个原因是直接原因,第二个原因是间接导致了大学生生存困境。
最后一段给出了解决方法,better oneself指使某人自身更加优秀,better此处作动词讲。预测作文
(四)The Popularity of Micro-blogging
1.近年来“微博”越来越流行,许多人利用“微博”来表达心声、交流想法。
2.微博流行的原因。
3.微博可能引起的弊端。
【范文】
Micro-blogging is no longer a strange word.More precisely, it has become part of our life.As for me, many factors contribute to the widespread of Micro-blogging.First, it is very convenient for people to express their instant feelings at any time.Second, it provides a chance for people to release their inner stress.By revealing their heartfelt emotions on the Micro-blogging, their friends may also know about their conditions and can offer in-time comfort.However, Micro-blogging can also be potentially dangerous as it
may give away people’s privacy and other significant information.All in all, Micro-blogging provides us comfort and also inevitably some concerns.We should be careful while using it.【点评】
第一段直接切入主题。首句在说明微博越来越流行时没有用肯定句micro-blogging is more and more popular, 而是用否定句的方式“负负得正”。
从第二段开始阐释流行的原因。Contribute to是固定词组,表示为„„作出贡献,其对应的名词是contribution。第一个原因是微博方便人们在任何时候表达他们当时的感觉。这里通过“at any time”和“instant feeling”突出了微博和传统博客的区别。第二个原因是微博可以减压。此处release表示释放,除了跟release pressure, release stress, 还可以跟release news。
第三段描述了微博的弊端,give away表示出卖,同义词有betray。最后一段是作者的对微博的态度,在充分肯定微博积极意义的同时提醒人们要谨慎使用微博。

(五)Reflection on Natural Disasters
1. 最近国内外灾害不断发生,这些灾害引起了我们对于自然所做的行为的再一次思考。
2. 你是如何看待自然灾害的?
3. 我们应该采取哪些措施来尽可能避免这些灾害和减少损失呢?
【范文】
Natural disasters happen almost every day,those devastating ones leave us to think about our behaviors towards nature again.First of all,we need to set a sound pre-warning mechanism, which enables us to detect potential risks at an early stages.Accordingly,emergency measures can be taken,and losses can be minimized.Second,governments have to equipped with an excellent Disaster Assistance Response Team to rescue those disaster-stricken areas.The primary goal is to provide emergency services, such as drinking water and medical treatment, until long-term aid arrives.Third, citizens need to realize that the main cause of those disasters is largely due to climate crisis;therefore, they should purchase energy efficient appliances, plant trees and economize our consumption on housing.From what has been discussed above, I maintain that minimizing the cost of disasters can be achieved by our persisting efforts.【点评】
第一段为总起段,提出问题并引起读者的注意。在形容自然灾害时,用disaster。Devastating表示极具破坏性的,同义词为destroying。Leave sb.to do sth.意味着使某人做某事。之后第二段中使用了连接词accordingly, 用以表示顺接或因果关系,连接词的使用能够使文章更具连贯性和逻辑性。而两个被动语态的使用则使文章更加客观公正。
第三段从政府的角度来进一步论述。Disaster-stricken为形容词,意思为饱受摧残的。在讲述政府提供的救援时,文中用了举例的方法使文章更加具体有说服力。
第四段中的be due to主要用来表示不好的原因。Purchase表示大宗购买,意为buy。这里用了三个并列的动宾词组,使文章更加有说服力。
最后一段maintain用来表示某人的观点,同义词还有observe, declare, insist。
第一,关于带的东西,首先是三证(身份证,学生证或图书证,准考证)缺一不可,丢失部分证件的学生及时去团总支开证明,其次是耳机(检查电池是否有电,耳机是否正常工作。)最后是2B铅笔、橡皮和黑色签字笔。
第二,关于考试流程,一般是8点半学生入场,入场后即可调试耳机(试音很早就开始),找着台后拿下耳机,以便听监考老师的各种有关考试的要求,9点开始播放考场指令,9点10开始考试,先做作文部分(提醒学生,不要在20分钟以内完成作文,因为这样不但无法保证作文质量,而且监考老师不允许提前开启试题册做快速阅读,9点45开始快速阅读,10点至10点5分收答题卡1(这上面包括了作文和快速阅读两部分的答题内容),10点5分开始听力部分考试,提醒学生老师收答题卡1的时候应立即带上耳机并快速浏览短对话部分,充分利用这5分钟的收卷时间。听力结束后是仔细阅读、完型填空和翻译三个答题,这四个答题都在答题卡2上作答,最后11点20考试结束后交答题卡2和试题册。第三,关于听力考试调台,我们学校的频点一定是FM校台11点左右的位置,如果旋钮正上方那个点看作12的话,它左侧那个点附近就是,而它右侧1点那个位置有个电台经常播放英语,四级考试时也播放,提醒学生千万别调错了。
This cartoon is silly, and yet compelling: a large customer holds a hopelessly small piece of cloth as the tailor carefully measures. Such an image suggests that one needs to consider practical reality in the pursuance of goals. Merely acting on ones desires, while ignoring the facts at hand, cannot lead to success.
The fact that currently there are more graduates than jobs reminds us of the importance of rational thinking. Every year approximately 3 million students graduate from universities and begin looking for work. Many of them fail to find suitable employment because there are simply not enough opportunities to accommodate such great numbers of graduates. In addition, however, one might also cite flawed individual assessment as a reason.
In order to create a realistic target for ones future, one must make rational decisions and prepare accordingly. A student who aims to be a surgeon, for example, must take care to acquire opportunities to do clinical practice and gain sufficient knowledge. In other words, customers would do well to take accurate measurements before purchasing their fabric. A small piece of cloth cannot adequately clothe a large person.

例:Buying or Borrowing Books?(1)有些人认为书应该借来看(2)有些人认为书应该买来看(3)你的选择?
Buying or Borrowing Books?
Books can arm us with knowledge and information we need to make success of life.There are generally two ways in which we can have access to books: borrowing or buying.While millions are borrowing books, I still think buying them best suits me and gives me the greatest pleasure.Many people choose to borrow books.For one thing, borrowing books can save us huge amounts of money.For another, if we borrow books from the library or friends, we normally have deadline to finish them.And consequently we can read more books in a limited time, just as a famous Chinese saying goes, “books can not be read unless borrowed.”
I believe that advantages for buying books are more obvious and compelling.Firstly, we can keep the books as long as we wish.Secondly, we can take whatever notes on the margin of the pages of the books.Finally, the process of selecting and keeping books can be a great fun.4.口语作文 例:工作总结演讲
1.简述上周五系学生会搞的一次以环保为主题的到某一湖区拾trash的活动。2.上述活动的效果及存在的问题。3.你的建议。My fellow students, Last Friday, the Students‟ Union of our Department organized a clean-up project to Zhongshan Lake.The purpose of this project is to enhance(加强)the environment awareness of general public.Late in the afternoon around 4, a group of 35 volunteers went to the park where we pick up the trash(垃圾)left by some tourists.As head of the group, I would like to report to you on the event.Actually, we did a wonderful job.When we were collecting the trash near the lake, many people paused to watch and then came to our help, showing considerable appreciation and support.But our work still left some to be desired.For one thing, since our project started late in the afternoon, hours were not long enough to attract enough people as we had predicted.For the other, lots of people passed by apparently not knowing what we were doing.But for these two drawbacks, our project could have been much better and more effective.So, following are two of my suggestions: next time we have similar activities, try to start earlier, say in the morning.In this case we can put in more hours.And also, as we are getting along, we can put up some posters to tell people what we are doing and call their attention to environment protection.Thank you.5.图表作文
A: staying at home B: traveling C: doing social investigation D: other ways
From the two charts, we can see that in the past ten years the students who go traveling and do social investigations during vacations have increased greatly while those who stay at home have decreased a lot.There are several reasons for the changes.Firstly, with the development of economy, many people have become better off.Students can get financial support from their parents for traveling.Secondly, tourism has greatly developed over the past ten years.Many new scenic spots have been built and exploited.In addition, the students today are expected and encouraged to participate in facing the real world.In this way they can obtain the necessary experiences required when they go job-hunting upon graduation.From the changes in the charts, we can predict that more and more college students will make their vacations interesting and worthwhile by going to the outside world instead of staying at home.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic of Studying Abroad.You should write at least
words following the outline given bellow:
1.近几年来越来越多的学生选择留学
2.出现这种现象的原因
3.这种现象可能带来的影响
四级模考参考范文:
Recent years have witnessed a phenomenon that more and more students swarm into foreign countries to finish their education.They have not considered our homeland as the unique place to enrich their knowledge any more.Instead, some excellent boys and girls whose financial condition is fine simultaneously began to pay their attention on some oversea prestigious colleges and institutions and dream to get degrees there.There are several reasons to cause this change.First of all, with the globalization and much more frequent communications with developed countries, most of the people in China get to realize the wide gaps in many fields, especially in science and technology,between China and western countries.They thirst for studying aboard to get ready better for the fierce competition in the job-hunting market.Moreover, the life in foreign countries is usually attractive to young people and studying aboard may satisfy their curiosity.Besides, the rapid development of our mother country and the remarkable growth in our income make going abroad to study available, which is almost impossible to average Chinese students in the past.The move-out of our students changes our society a lot.On one hand, being students in foreign universities will widen their view and offer them more possibility to get favorite jobs.And consequently their success will draw more latecomers to do the same thing.On the other hand, if the majority of them will not go back to China to work in the future, our fatherland will probably suffer a significant loss which may be difficult to be estimated by money.毕业的问题
1、Studying Abroad or Home
(1)现在有越来越多的人想出国留学。
(2)出国留学与在国内学习的对比。
(3)你的观点。
Nowadays, with the development of science and technology, more?and?more?people want to study abroad.There are students from colleges and universities, from the middle schools, from the primary schools, and people from all walks of life.What difference does it make?between studying abroad and studying home ?
Though many students are crazy about going abroad to pursue their higher education, I think studying home is preferable.For one thing, you don‟t have to take foreign language tests such as TOEFL and GRE.This can save you a tremendous amount of time, money and effort, allowing much of your energy to be devoted to your academic foals.In addition, if you study home ,you can stay with your family and old friends.Meanwhile , while studying home ,you can enjoy the kind of intimate friendship and comfortable family atmosphere which you can only dream of in a foreign university , where you will be accompanied by your own shadow most of the time.For these reasons, pursuing one‟s higher education at home is a more realistic and sensible choice.In a word, I prefer to study home.The Intensified Postgraduate Entrance Examination
It can be seen from the graph that there are more and more students attending the postgraduate entrance examination year by year.Compared with before, the rate of the student taking part in the postgraduate entrance examination becomes higher and higher.In the meanwhile, the admittance rate is also rising.What are the reasons for this and the possible consequences? On the one hand, there are three reasons for this.First, the job market becomes more and more competitive.As a result, most people want to find or exchange for a better job by obtaining a high degree.Second, most college students want to pursue their study after their graduation from the undergraduate.Third, with the development the science and technology, what has been learned at college is not enough to meet the need of the society.On the other hand, there are some possible consequences of this.For one thing, most people will be force to pay more attention to the examination than to the improvement of their true ability.For another, it will have a negative effect not only on the individual but also on the society in the long run.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a Letter of Apology.You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese:
1.表达自己对晚交论文一事的歉意。

1There has been a heated discussion over the growing income gap now.Some people hold that the gap is natural because it 2reflects different contributions that different people make in their work.3In their view, those people with high income work hard and long.Besides, these people bring high 4efficiency, and create more wealth.Accordingly, they deserve high pay.1On the other hand, there are always some people who view this gap negatively.They believe that a lot of crimes happen as a result of this income gap.Some people make so little from their work that they 2risk taking criminal acts to get rich.In fact, experts have long found out that most cases of crime are directly related to low income.There is 3another point to 4back up a negative view against income gap.For most people, income gap may destroy the satisfaction
that they obtain from work.1As anything has two sides, so has the problem of income gap.Personally, I believe that this gap may 2motivate people to compete better in job market.When this gap is growing too wide, however, our government should make some policies to 3get rid of its negative consequences.◇第一段思路点评:收入差距的合理性
