    Practice 5Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the remark “Is Space Worth Exploring?” You can cite examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    Is Space Worth Exploring? With the development of science and technology, space exploration has greatly advanced. We could watch the exciting news from TV and read the latest achievement in this field almost every day. As human beings, we are so proud of our work.
    Yet, not everyone has the same attitude towards this issue. Some people think we could use the money and resources to find out ways to relieve the suffering of the earth’s starving millions. It has also been felt that the space might lead to the development of space weapon, which may cause the destruction of earth. Despite these disadvantages and potential dangers, the advantages are far greater. Our daily life cannot be without the results of the space science. We use satellites for communication, weather forecast and oil exploration. Some problems may be solved with further exploration. For instance, with the success of space shuttles and the feasibility of living on other planets, we may solve the population problem on earth. Space projects will also enable us to find new sources of energy to solve the energy problem and discover new chemical elements to cure some incurable diseases.
    So in my opinion, space exploration contributes a lot to the improvement of the quality of human life. We will have better life with the advances of the space exploration.

    Practice 1Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the remark “Success is something most people try to achieve.” You can cite examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    At the mention of success, different people maintain various views. Some hold that wealth is the only criterion on account that without money you can’t live a decent life, and that the more money you possess, the happier you will be. Some however, regard fame as a symbol of one’s achievement, in that the social recognition is the value of each individual because people will respect you if you are in high social status. In my personal point of view, the achievement of self-value decides whether his or her life is successful.
    Maslow’s famous theory has pointed out that human needs are divided in to different levels. Once the lower level has been achieved, we begin to seek higher needs. Money, which brings us basic needs of life, only produces physical comfort. Social needs are higher, because respect and recognition are indispensable for us social animals. But the highest need we pursue is the self-value, which is through work or other things we do, we feel we are needed and contribute our efforts to the society. This has nothing to do with which social rank we are in.
    So whether one person is successful or not does not hinge on his wealth and fame, for the accomplishment of self-worth is what we should focus on.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    The best holidays are the ones spent in a different country. Do you absolutely reach an agreement with me? At least, I suggest so. Regarding the reasons, the following example related to my own experience can prove everything.
    Several years ago, I was lucky to have an opportunity to go to Singapore to have a summer camp with my high middle school teachers. We have stayed there for about half a month. During that period of time, we had interviewed many high middle schools, and we exchanged our experience of teaching, learning, school management and so on. In that way, we had truly gained much valuable experience. We also paid several visits to some beautiful tourist attractions that were quite different from those of China. Lastly I had also found that Singapore is a country with severe laws for protecting pubic sanitation. It is very easy to find that the country is very clean and tidy with fresh air permeating everywhere.
    Till now, through spending holidays in a foreign country, we can really gain a great deal. We can get to know quite different forms of cultures and customs. We can enlarge our vision and may also make several friends from different nationalities. However, the journey abroad will cost you a large sum of money. In all, the benefits obviously outweigh its expenditure.

    正确答案:
    【参考范文】
    Key Factors to Success That everyone wishes to be successful in life is beyond doubt. To succeed, three fundamental principles should be borne in mind.
    The first key factor to success is diligence. Diligence can help us remove ignorance, overcome difficulties, and enlighten our minds. If we while away our time now, our future life will be a failure.
    Devotion, which means the concentration of our mind and effort in doing things, is another key factor to success. Whatever job we are doing, we must love it and do it whole-heartedly.
    Perseverance, or a strong will, is also necessary in order to make success a certainty. If we study and work day after day, there is nothing that cannot be achieved.
    To conclude, all great men achieve success through diligence, devotion, and perseverance, just as the famous English saying goes: no pains, no gains.

    Practice 3Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the remark “As the popularity of the Internet continues to increase, newspapers will soon become a thing of the past.” You can cite examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    Undoubtedly, the Internet has become a major choice when looking for information or seeking pleasure for us modern people. It provides us with instant news stories, color pictures, and video clips. Based on this, many people maintain that the Internet outweighs the newspapers, and hence will replace the latter one. However, the extinction of the newspaper will not be seen in a relatively short time. The following are the reasons.
    First of all, the convenience of the newspaper is its biggest advantage. We could fold a piece of newspaper and put it in our pocket when taking a bus. Some would argue that using other devices such as cell phone, laptop, etc, we could easily get access to the Internet, thus looking for news. But this requires electronic devices and the number of the people who have such tools is still not high.
    In addition, the Internet does no good to our health. Exposure to radiation cannot be avoided when we access the internet, by whatever means we use. Newspaper, in contrast, has no radiation at all. For the sake of our health, the newspaper is a better option.
    Newspaper has a long tradition in the mass media. Many press and agencies are built on this industry. Once newspaper becomes extinct, the structure of the industries will have to change. Even if newspaper becomes a thing of the past, it will not happen in a short period.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    Youth Unemployment upon Graduation The recent years have witnessed a depressing social phenomenon in many countries—a great number of college students become unemployed after graduation. This fact not only causes pressure for the graduates, but also lays burden on the society.
    There are mainly two possible reasons accounting for this problem. Firstly, the expansion of universities provides chances for more students to receive higher education, but the job market cannot develop at the same speed. The situation is even worse with those students who uniformly choose the “hot” majors such as economics and accounting. Secondly, some students think too highly of themselves so that they choose not to work at all if they are not satisfied with the salary or working environment of the job.
    To solve this problem, the government should try to develop the economy in order to create more job opportunities. College authorities should take the job market into consideration when enrolling students. Besides, students also should cherish every job opportunity.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    My View on the Use of E-Dictionary When it comes to learning English, nobody can do it well without the assistance of a dictionary. Confronted with the difficult task of learning English at college level, many students turn to electronic dictionaries (e-dictionaries) for help.
    While an ordinary, paperback English-Chinese/ Chinese-English dictionary is often big and heavy, e-dictionaries are small and light, hence quite portable and handy. They provide students with an easy access to information concerning pronunciations, spellings, meanings, translations, antonyms and synonyms whenever students come across a new word.
    However, with a limited storage capacity, e-dictionaries are often subjected to a low storage of good examples illustrating the usages of a word compared with its high storage of vocabulary. Meanwhile, an ordinary, paperback dictionary will turn out popular and helpful when it offers abundant examples and illustrations for a word. And a financial problem will also arise if you intend to possess an e-dictionary. The price of an ordinary, paperback dictionary is around 100 Yuan, but the price of an average e-dictionary is often over 200 Yuan.
    I would like to have both. I will carry an e-dictionary with me to all my English classes, and, keep an ordinary, paperback dictionary close at hand when I am learning alone.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    My Idea of Professional Ethics for a Scientist There is no denying that a distinguished scientist should not only be learned and creative but also have good professional ethics for the good of both society and the scientist himself. But what are good professional ethics for a scientist?
    In my opinion, a scientist should possess the following qualities. First of all, an eminent scientist should make sure that his knowledge is used to bring benefits to the general public rather than to make his personal gains. He should devote himself to the advancement of technology, with the aim of raising the living standards of people and making our world a better place to live in. Secondly, as a respectable scientist, he should be on good terms with other scientists. Cooperation and mutual trust between scientists are very critical for scientific achievements. Thirdly, a good scientist should be honest and respect the work of others. Never should he copy from others or falsify research findings. Last but not the least, a scientist should be a responsible person. He should not make any hasty decisions. Once a decision is made he should shoulder its consequence.
    In a word, an excellent scientist should have good professional ethics to win the respect of the people and contribute more to people’s benefits.

    正确答案:
    【范文】
    How to Solve the Energy Problem Energy is one of the biggest problems people are faced with today. Not a few far-sighted people point out that our natural resources are very much limited. If we keep consuming our resources at the present rate, they warn, the world will soon be running out of oil, coal and metals and this will certainly lead to a serious energy crisis threatening mankind’s survival.
    The majority of the world’s people have responded with a clamor for more severe conservation of our natural resources. This is urgently necessary, indeed. It must be realized that much of our energy, in the form of oil, coal, gas, or electricity, has been wantonly consumed. If things go on like this, we will leave for our descendants a devastated world, a vast stretch of wasteland. So, from now on, we will have to make serious efforts to practise economy in using energy and cut down waste of any form so as to slow down the present drain on our limited resources.
    But conservation alone is not all the answer. The best way to solve the energy problem is, I think, to develop new sources of energy. It is obvious that, even if we save much energy by using it carefully, our natural resources, however abundant, will run out ultimately. And when they are unexplored areas seems to be the only way out of our predicament.

    Living in the College Town In recent years, college towns have been thriving across China as a result of rapid economic and cultural development. Students hold different views on living in these remote areas of their cities.
    Many of them loathe the isolation from city life. They complain about the tedious experience of catching the shuttle bus to the outskirts every day. And what annoys them more is that they are detached from normal campus life and they find few teachers to interact with. However, quite a number of students argue that staying away from the bustling surroundings will eventually benefit their academic performance.
    As one of the students living in a college town, I have deeply experienced the inconvenience and monotony. Therefore, some measures should be taken so that more attention can be given to the students in the college town. On the one hand, more cultural events and recreation activities can be launched. On the other hand, a closer teacher-student relationship should be established so as to strengthen their communication.

    The More I Learn, the More Ignorant I Find Myself to Be As soon as I was enrolled in college, I felt a big burden off my mind. So did my classmates. We just wanted to relax. But at our first English lesson on how to improve our study the teacher told us, “There is no end of learning. The more you learn, the more ignorant you will find yourself to be. The only way you can do is to work hard to learn more.”
    The teacher’s words awaken me and remind me of the ignorant few who claim to have all of the answers to man and life but know less than you or I, and who, with their hands held up high, offer everything you may have wanted to know about life itself, but when pushed and pried knowing nothing but what they are told. Now I am a postgraduate, and life has taught me too many harsh lessons. The more I learn and experience, the more I realize how little I know. Therefore, bearing in mind the motto that there is no end of learning, I keep on my studies. I do not only learn from the books, but also from experiences, as practice makes perfect.
    For all of my efforts, I am fully aware how far I am away from the sea of knowledge. The more I learn, the more ignorant I find myself to be and the more I feel the need to learn. Art is long, and life is short.

    Can Money Buy Happiness? I have once seen a caricature that depicted an ironic picture: a man who is overloaded with a pretty large piece of gold is making every effort to creep forward. However, there is much to say about it. It gives a vivid expression to a serious topic—Can money buy happiness?
    Money means wealth—social wealth as well as personal wealth. Making money is creating wealth. The more money you have, the wealthier you are. To increase wealth is what a person desires and what society needs. A person’s desire can never be satisfied and social progress has no ending. Therefore, making money is one of essential activities that identify a person’s existence.
    Happiness is referred to as enjoyable experiences that people are feeling. To some extent, enjoyable experiences result from a person’s mental satisfaction. People can never get satisfied with making money, so money is something distant from happiness. Although the man mentioned above is possessed of much money, he is suffering from the weight of gold. It is not exceptional that some millionaires are not happy at all in life. Indeed, money can buy wealth, but it cannot buy happiness if inappropriately used.
    Nevertheless money is not in contradiction to happiness when making money is regarded as a means to attain a definite goal. In a word, more attention should be focused on orientation of life when it comes to the subject—Can money buy happiness?

    Internet Friendship According to the recent survey, 80% of people who surf online are in search of social interaction.

    Our Disappearing Countryside In many people’s minds, countryside means a place with green trees, beautiful flowers, clear rivers and blue sky, but the notion is changing. Trees and flowers become fewer, rivers are stagnant and the sky turns blurry. Countryside does not agree with the one that in our memory. Our countryside is disappearing.
    People in the whole world are highlighting urbanization and industrialization nowadays for they are the synonyms of prosperity and advance, in spite of how much they should pay for that. The destroyers would never realize that the generous nature gives us the pleasing environment for free is not because it is valueless when compared to practical profits but invaluable until they ruin the last clean pitch on the earth. How pathetic they are! And as residents on the same earth, how pathetic we are!
    Measures should be taken to protect our countryside—the last paradise for human beings. Save water, avoid using one-off stuff, plant more trees, reduce rubbishes and start doing so in this moment, for it is our last chance to keep our disappearing countryside.

    Practice 3Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay discussing about how much freedom parents should allow young people to have nowadays. You can cite examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.

    【范文】
    My Views on the Freedom Given to Young People Young people have more freedom today than they did one hundred years ago, but how much freedom depends on the family. And it is obvious that nowadays young people are given too much freedom by their parents.
    As we know, today parents are busy with their work and have no time to get much information about their children, for example what they have done and what kinds of friends they have. This isn’t a good phenomenon because young people can easily get into trouble by drinking too much or mixing with the wrong people. What’s worse, they may get addicted into online games. Therefore, some limitations should be given to young people, such as the prohibition of drinking and smoking and the online time. On the other hand, young people must learn how to be sensible, knowing what should be done and what shouldn’t be done.
    In all, I don’t think parents should give their children too much freedom, but it is important for parents and children to reach agreement on some rules.

You have 30 minutes to plan, write, and revise your essay. Typically, an effective response will contain a minimum of 300 words.Some people believe that hard work is the only way to be successful. Other people believe that success comes from luck. Which do you agree with and why?

    正确答案: (1)
    In my opinion, I believe hard work is the most important element to be successful. The meaning of success varies for different people. As for me, success is being financially well off and being emotionally happy as well. And hard work is the gateway to success.
    The main reason why people are successful is to work hard. A hard worker is able to follow directions from superior, act in obedience to the orders given to him. And in most cases, works set goals for themselves. But the difference that sets hard workers apart from regular workers is hard workers make any effort to accomplish their objectives. Hard workers are well aware of their goal and do not stop until they achieve it. Consequently, success is due to those who truly work hard.
    A good example of this is Tiger Woods. He is a person who has been extremely successful. Maybe he possesses some natural talent, but in fact, he spent a tot of time and efforts on practicing, and finally became an excellent golfer. He did not just rely on luck one day and win a championship in a tournament. It is the years of dedication and hard work he put into golf that leads to his success. Natural talent can only get you to the entrance of the field.
    Hard work provides consistent or sustained power to become success too, because people do not necessarily depend on chance factors, such as luck. Hard work is something people work at doing. They are in the process of pursuing success instead of relying on luck to give them a break. If success is the goal for a hard worker then they will achieve it, and they will be sure to. Their hard work will lead them there.
    (2)
    At one time I regarded hard work as more important than luck, but now I think chance is of the great importance for success. Luck, or chance, comes about not by design but accidentally. It is the reason why many unqualified people are successful. This success, from the financial perspective, is a matter of chance.
    In the movie industry, a lot of actors and models were discovered by chance or owing to some type of luck in many countries around the world. Some of the situations might be that they were sitting next to an agent or a director at lunch, or when they were walking down the street. Someone spotted them. Under Such circumstances, these people were picked out because they happened to be next to the one who could help promote them into a better career and situation. They may then have successful careers and make a lot of money just because of one chance lucky meeting. They were lucky indeed.
    Assuming a real world situation. A man owns a restaurant, and he works hard every day to run his business, but the result turns to be that he does not make much money. One day, he gets a call for a special food delivery order. His employee delivers the food to the customer, who is the owner of another large restaurant chain. The franchise owner especially enjoys the food, hence he offers the man a deal that the man is invited to join in the restaurant chain. Then, the man, who was struggling, becomes successful. It was very lucky for the man that the chain restaurant owner tries the food; as a result, he gets the opportunity to achieve success. I believe a lot of people work hard, but do not benefit from luck. Though they do a great job at work and try their very best. If they do not happen to have a certain lucky situations, they may never be successful.
