第一篇:9月寫作預(yù)測(cè)
2011年9月雅思寫作預(yù)測(cè)發(fā)布啦!分別針對(duì)9月 3/15/17/24日的每一次考試哈,整個(gè)9月就這一個(gè)預(yù)測(cè),沒(méi)有單日的預(yù)測(cè)。必須參看預(yù)測(cè)題目前的使用說(shuō)明哈!告訴自己以及身邊每一個(gè)考雅思的人,不用到處亂逛了!你可以橫向比較一下,到目前為止,業(yè)內(nèi)我的雅思寫作預(yù)測(cè)命中率最高。尤其從今年3月我的雅思寫作預(yù)測(cè)全新改版以來(lái),到目前(7月30日)為止共20次雅思考試,16次基本命中原題,三次沾邊,一次失敗。信強(qiáng)哥,雅思過(guò)!
我的預(yù)測(cè)如何使用?--必讀,必讀,必讀??!
本次雅思大作文預(yù)測(cè)共分兩個(gè)部分:雅思寫作9-12月高危題庫(kù)和雅思寫作9月預(yù)測(cè)精選。高危題庫(kù)有25個(gè)出題點(diǎn),每個(gè)出題點(diǎn)下有若干題目。如果你足夠爺們追求高分,且準(zhǔn)備時(shí)間充足,那就把雅思寫作9-12月高危題庫(kù)中每一個(gè)出題點(diǎn)下的每一道單個(gè)題目寫一下(只寫素材,即分論點(diǎn)就行,大可不必寫完整作文);如果你足夠不爺們不追求高分,且時(shí)間準(zhǔn)備不充足,那就按照雅思寫作9月預(yù)測(cè)精選中給出的35道雅思寫作試題準(zhǔn)備考試。―高危題庫(kù)‖的命中率要高于―預(yù)測(cè)精選‖,使用哪一個(gè),取決于你自己的情況。但無(wú)論你使用哪一個(gè),一定要記?。耗阒恍鑼懨康李}目的素材,即兩正一負(fù)3個(gè)分論點(diǎn)就行(每個(gè)主體段的主題句),也就是如果你按―預(yù)測(cè)精選‖準(zhǔn)備考試,大概只需要寫105句話。不管怎樣,這個(gè)新版的預(yù)測(cè)是為了讓大家在考前對(duì)雅思作文最??嫉降乃夭挠袀€(gè)徹底的了解和提升,避免到了考場(chǎng)用中文都不知該寫什么的窘境。因此,如果你有一個(gè)月及以上的備考時(shí)間,哪怕一道題目都不寫,但最好按照―高危題庫(kù)‖中給出的題目提前用中文想想素材,都會(huì)極大減輕你到考場(chǎng)上會(huì)面臨的壓力并節(jié)省時(shí)間。其實(shí)關(guān)于我的預(yù)測(cè),在這篇評(píng)論人人網(wǎng)雅思公共主頁(yè)的文章中得到了更好的闡述,閱讀這篇文章不僅對(duì)普通的小烤鴨大有益處,同時(shí)對(duì)從事雅思寫作預(yù)測(cè)和培訓(xùn)的同行們也會(huì)有些積極的啟發(fā),點(diǎn)擊這里http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_4f7a1d290100t9io.html
注意,這里是強(qiáng)哥對(duì)雅思寫作題型代號(hào)的專用縮略語(yǔ):
辯論類AD=agree or disagree, DG=discuss both views and give your own opinion, LB=利弊 解釋類RS=reason and solution,RE=Reason and effects, R.LB=reason和利弊分析,變態(tài)類BT=不常考的變態(tài)題型,題目怎么問(wèn),就怎么答,和解釋類近似。
我的預(yù)測(cè)更新頻率?--必讀,必讀,必讀??!
每月的第一次雅思考試結(jié)束后,我會(huì)預(yù)測(cè)下一月的考試;―預(yù)測(cè)精選‖每月一改,―高危題庫(kù)‖每個(gè)考試季度一改(每年的1-4月,5-8月,9-12月)。也就是本次9月的―預(yù)測(cè)精選‖只適用于9月份的考試,10月的要等9月第一次雅思考試結(jié)束后發(fā)布;本次的―高危題庫(kù)‖適用于今年年底之前的任何一次考試,不會(huì)有大的變化。
強(qiáng)哥的雅思寫作預(yù)測(cè)還在不斷進(jìn)步,更新,升級(jí)!
今后我的雅思寫作預(yù)測(cè)將逐步增添更多業(yè)內(nèi)無(wú)人能及的強(qiáng)悍功能和超級(jí)實(shí)用的補(bǔ)丁,敬請(qǐng)期待!
溫馨提示:如果你恰好在考場(chǎng)上碰到和強(qiáng)哥預(yù)測(cè)里一模一樣的題目,請(qǐng)抑制自己激動(dòng)的心情,冷靜淡定地把作文寫完。

第三篇:高考寫作預(yù)測(cè)
2018年高考英語(yǔ)書面表達(dá)預(yù)測(cè)26篇各類應(yīng)用文(含中國(guó)文化等)
2018年高考英語(yǔ)書面表達(dá)預(yù)測(cè)(經(jīng)典)
教育部考試中心主任姜鋼在《中國(guó)高等教育雜志》刊登的文章《堅(jiān)持以立德樹(shù)人為核心深化高考考試內(nèi)容改革》透露,在命題工作中更加注重“四個(gè)加強(qiáng)”:加強(qiáng)社會(huì)主義核心價(jià)值觀的考查;加強(qiáng)依法治國(guó)理念的考查;加強(qiáng)中國(guó)優(yōu)秀傳統(tǒng)文化的考查;加強(qiáng)創(chuàng)新能力的考查。業(yè)內(nèi)人士認(rèn)為,無(wú)論是發(fā)言者的身份,還是探討的話題,堪稱權(quán)威重磅。
反觀近年全國(guó)卷真題,2013年I卷的“中國(guó)畫”、2013年II卷的“中國(guó)結(jié)”和2015年II卷的“重陽(yáng)節(jié)”均考查了“中國(guó)優(yōu)秀傳統(tǒng)文化”這個(gè)話題;其中2015年II卷的“重陽(yáng)節(jié)去敬老院”還考查“社會(huì)主義核心價(jià)值觀(孝敬老人)”這個(gè)話題。1.穩(wěn)。即文體基本局限于應(yīng)用文中的書信體(含電子郵件)。
2.變。即可能會(huì)回避近年(特別是兩三年內(nèi))考過(guò)的邀請(qǐng)信、求助信(請(qǐng)求信)、建議信、申請(qǐng)信、咨詢信、約稿信。有可能傾向于近年未考過(guò)的祝賀信、感謝信、求職信等書信體;另外屬于應(yīng)用文的留言條也是生活中常用文體,也可能是考查方向(2009年I卷考查過(guò)留言條)。
1.很可能會(huì)突出“中國(guó)優(yōu)秀傳統(tǒng)文化”這個(gè)方向。例如中國(guó)的四大藝術(shù)“琴棋書畫”、文房四寶、四大發(fā)明、四大名著、國(guó)粹京劇、唐詩(shī)宋詞、古代建筑藝術(shù)、文化遺址、中國(guó)武術(shù)、中醫(yī)中藥等等,與這些相關(guān)的話題均可能是命題的重要素材。
2.可能是體現(xiàn)“社會(huì)主義核心價(jià)值觀”,如“愛(ài)國(guó)”“誠(chéng)實(shí)”“守信”等。實(shí)際上,這些也是中華優(yōu)良的傳統(tǒng)美德。
3.也可能是升學(xué)、留學(xué)、求職、招聘等方面相關(guān)的話題。

As the CEE is approaching, a yearly activity named “Come on Senior Three” was held on our school playground on the afternoon of May 30th.Aiming to help Senior 3 students to relieve stress and cheer them up, not only teachers but also the students in Senior One and Senior Two all took an active part in the activity, and they gave wonderful and inspiring speeches, besides which, students and teachers sang songs together and they all enjoyed themselves very much.In my opinion, this kind of activity is a great way to deal with study pressure for Senior 3 students, for they can get away from the study for a moment and get relaxed and refreshed.Therefore with the pressure gone, I think they will do well in the examination.9.(介紹端午節(jié))假定你是李華。你剛從英國(guó)為期五天的旅游回來(lái),感謝好友Rick的款待。得知他對(duì)中國(guó)的文化非常的感興趣,特別是即將到來(lái)的端午節(jié),請(qǐng)你寫一封信介紹中國(guó)的端午節(jié)。內(nèi)容要點(diǎn): 1)感謝他的招待。

My View on Job-hopping
Outline: 1.有些人喜歡始終從事一種工作,因?yàn)椤?2.有些人喜歡經(jīng)常換工作,因?yàn)椤?.3.我的看法
People's opinions are always different when they talk about job-hopping.Those who never change their job throughout their life maintain that they have accumulated enough experience to work smoothly and efficiently, so what's the point in changing it and taking another job? They also firmly believe that anyone who wants to excel in his specialty has to work hard on the same post for years to acquire the required skill and knowledge.However, many others hold just the opposite view.On the one hand, they believe that if the present job can offer neither satisfactory working conditions nor future opportunities, they will not hesitate a moment to leave.On the other hand, they hold that life is but once and job-hopping can provide rich and exciting experiences.My own opinion is that job-hopping, in this fast-changing era of information, has become more than common and acceptable.If we want to keep pace with the times, we have to change for the faster, the higher and the stronger.If life is a journey, we have nothing to regret so long as we put meaning into it.So why not make a change?

Dear Sir or Madam,I learned from Beijing Youth Daily Oct.2 that your company is offering a position for a secretary, and it's a great pleasure for me to write to explore the possibility of seeking the job.I graduated two years ago from Beijing University of Technology, and obtained a bachelor's degree in the field of business manage?ment.During my stay in the university my major courses included macro-economics, business communication skills, marketing and com?puter applications.I was especially fond of the communication skills which enabled me to deal with people and things around well.Upon graduation I engaged with HP China Branch as an assis?tant to the head of Marketing Department.My responsibilities consist?ed of carrying out market surveys, writing reports and organizing meet?ings within the department.This two-year experience has helped me a lot in many ways.In particular, I become increasingly aware of the importance of co-ordination and co-operation among co-workers.I also believe the experience will qualify me for the current vacancy in your company.I passed both CET-4 and CET-6 with high marks.My spoken English is also fluent enough to organize meetings in English, which was actually my routine work in HP.Most of my market reports were presented in English, as my former boss is a native English speaker
I enclose herein my resume and some relevant documents as re?quired.And if you need any further information on me, I also refer you to Mr.Johnson, my ex-colleague, who is available at 021-66668888.I appreciate your sincere consideration of me, and am looking forward to an early interview with you.Sincerely yours, Wang Peng

1.現(xiàn)在有越來(lái)越多的大學(xué)畢業(yè)生報(bào)考公務(wù)員
2.引起此現(xiàn)象的原因
3.你的看法
Every year hundreds of thousands of people in China take civil service exams conducted at various levels in the hope of becoming government employees.Among them, college graduates are a fast-growing force that can‘t be ignored.The craze for being a civil servant is not limited to liberal arts majors, as it‘s also gaining popularity among science and engineering students.In the final analysis, this growing trend among the youngsters is mainly attributable to two factors – ambitions and comforts.On one hand, many ambitious college graduates view these exams as a springboard to a higher social status, greater power and prestige, on which many of their other wishes rest.On the other, as being a civil servant generally means a as well stable income, enviable healthcare and pension programmes, as other comforts of life, it‘s quite an appealing career option to many people, especially in this age of sluggish蕭條的 world economy.Personally, the desire to be a government official is beyond reproach(無(wú)可厚非), as the nation and the people do need an injection of new blood into the civil service sectors.The fresh-faced college graduates, armed with lofty崇高的 ideals, new vision, and strong drive, are undoubtedly among the best candidates.5.Friendship
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: What does friendship mean? You should write at least 120 words and you should base your composition on the outline(given in Chinese)below:
1.友誼是人生永恒的主題。
2.友誼到底意味著什么。
3.友誼的重要性。
What does friendship mean? There is no definite answer.An eternal theme in literature, friendship is also indispensable in daily life.Friendship is to our life what salt is to dasher.When you are happy, friendship is just like adding flowers on the brocade;when you are sad, friendship is a dose of consolation;if you are in trouble, friends will surround you and remove the barriers for you;if you have a hard nut to crack, you can turn to friends for help.We admire the great friendship between Marx and Engel, which firmly combined them and pushed them forward on the road to exploring and fulfilling Communism.Friendship isn't almighty, but no one can live happily without it.3.Private Tutoring
Outline: 1.為孩子聘請(qǐng)家教目前非常普遍 2.家教的利與弊 3.我的看法
Sample: Private tutoring is ―in‖.A recent investigation shows that about 80 percent of pupils have private tutors.Such a popular practice indicates that people are attaching greater importance to education.Many parents, for various reasons, missed the chance of obtaining a good education.When their children meet with difficulties in study, they are helpless.Private tutoring is the only solution.As private tutoring is usually one-to-one, the teacher knows the strong points as well as the weak points of the pupil clearly.However, private tutoring has its own disadvantages.For one thing, it takes up so much of the pupils‘ time that they can hardly find enough time for rest and entertainment, which are essential for their physical and mental health.For another, some teachers, busy ―shuttling‖ from one family to another, tend to neglect their regular teaching duties.What‘s more, some teachers are eager to help pupils do well in the test, offering the so-called tips for test-taking rather than help them acquire what is more meaningful.Generally speaking, its disadvantages outweigh its advantages.Greater emphasis should be laid on classroom teaching and practice, on the improvement of teaching quality and on the tapping of pupils‘ potentials.Only in this way can a new generation be healthily brought up.Sample 1

Suppose that I am chosen to be an exchange student, ready to stay and study in the USA for a while, I will show the American people the best of our country and our culture.I think the best way to achieve this purpose is to bing them some souvenirs that can best represent Chinese characteristics.I would choose Chinese Ties.The reasons for my choice are twofold.First things first, it symbolizes a Chinese dream, a dream deeply rooted in the Chinese culture—a harmonious society.Typically round in shape, a Chinese Tie reflects ancient Chinese outlook on the world, which, they believe, should be round.In turn, round things signify a harmony.Secondly, I think few things are so wonderful as a...., since just in its middle is a square hole, which has another meaning– the idea of order and rule.Perhaps, there are numerous things that can stand for China, such as …… However, the best that can visualize China, as far as I am concerned, is the Chinese tie.Sample 2

The Fascinations of China
China, one of the cradles of human civilization, possesses so many treasures with Chinese characteristics that numerous foreign friends come to visit her.The first place to go to is, the Great Wall, which is the symbol of China and one of the seven wonders in the world.What's more, it is said to be the only construction that can be seen from the outer space.In the imperial periods, it was used in defense of the dynasties.Since liberation, it has become a place of interest.There is a famous saying: “He who does not reach the Great Wall isn't a true man.”
China is home to Panda, an animal with only two colors, white and black, but very cute.It's our national treasure, often functioning as a friendly diplomat.Terracotta-clay warriors unearthed in Xi'an, a famous ancient city-were sculptured in Qin Dynasty, the first dynasty of China.When former U.S.President Clinton came to China, he visited terracotta‘s first.The above mentioned are just a wave of the sea.If you want to know more about this ancient nation, come and be our guest.Sample 3

Something I Admire about the Western Culture
Despite the cultural conflicts between the Orient and the Occident, there do exist some admirable ingredients in the Western culture.First and foremost, the equality between parents and children.The parents are not always superior to their children, and the children do not always need to obey their parents‘order, that is, they are more like close friends.Second, the independent personality.Western people have a strong sense of supporting themselves and being independent.They begin earning their pocket money early in their life, even as kids.Last, Western people do not always assess a person according to his background.If only he can achieve success through personal struggle, he can win status.It's a talent-oriented society, not background-oriented.1.“A Letter to the Minister of Education”.Your must base your composition on the following instructions(given in Chinese).Your composition should be no less than 120 words.Remember to write it neatly.假設(shè)你是李文,請(qǐng)你就學(xué)校假期的安排給教育部長(zhǎng)寫一封信,向他建議將學(xué)校傳統(tǒng)的長(zhǎng)假調(diào)整為幾次短假并陳述相關(guān)的原因比如:學(xué)習(xí)時(shí)間過(guò)長(zhǎng)可能引起過(guò)度疲勞,而放假過(guò)長(zhǎng)則可能導(dǎo)致浪費(fèi)時(shí)間等等。
A Letter to the Minister of Education
Dear Minister of Education,I am a college student and I would like to suggest that students should be given several shorter breaks through the year instead of the traditional long vacations.The reasons why I am in favor of it are as follows.First, students must work very hard at their studies.If they work for too long without a break, they may become overtired and discouraged.They may lose their enthusiasm for learning.Second, a very long vacation is not necessary.Students can recharge their energy in a few days rather than weeks.Furthermore, many students do not use a long vacation wisely and just waste their time instead of doing something meaningful.And last but not least, vacations give students time to explore other interests and perhaps apply what they have been learning to the real world.If they always focus on their studies.They may lose touch with what is happening in their society.In conclusion, I believe that students today would benefit more from several short vacations than they do form two long ones.I do hope you can take my suggestion into consideration and make a final wise decision.Yours Sincerely

Early in senior high school, we longed to be enrolled in a university.Now the dream has come true.But how do we college students like our campus life?
Certainly, some relish it, finding it colorful and rewarding.Besides study, they spend considerable amount of time improving themselves in various aspects.Yet others do not think much of their college life, thus do not benefit as much.In their eyes, the university is just a bigger high school.The only difference is that they have more time at their disposal without parents looking over their shoulder.As to me, college life is ideal if only I have abundant books to read, some bosom friends to keep me company, a couple of conscientious professors to instruct me, and an easy access to the Internet.Sample 2

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(加強(qiáng))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.Sample 2 真題演講例文

v c.我的看法
There are an increasing number of students who choose to live off campus.Parents and university administrations understandably reacted differently.They voiced concerns about security and the threat of off-campus lifestyles getting out of control.However, college students have their own reasons for their choices.Some students prefer to live on campus for the following reasons.First, campus residents are closer to classes, the library, and other resources, so they are more likely to succeed in college and complete their bachelor‘s degree in four years.Furthermore, living in a dorm is a great opportunity to meet all kinds of new people and develop relationships with them, so students living on campus are more sociable.Last but not the least, living on campus is cheaper and more convenient.Often times, off-campus housing is more expensive than on-campus housing and while living on campus, you don‘t have to worry about monthly rent payments and utility bills.Some others choose to live off campus because they believe living off campus they are more independent, with more privacy and a lot more quiet time.Living off campus gives them freedom from those dorm rules and allow them to set their own.The extra space also means that one can probably find a quiet place to study in the convenience of his own home.As for me, I‘m a faithful supporter of the former group because I, living on campus myself, have witnessed and enjoyed all the convenience and happiness of doing so.To me, living on campus undoubtedly adds an important element to the complete college experience.6-1.How to improve student's mental health

With the fast pace of modern life, more and more people are living under great pressure.Some people are afraid of pressure.They think that the stresses and strains of work deprive them of joy and happiness.In their view, stress does harm to them both physically and mentally.That is why they prefer something less competitive and strenuous to something more demanding and challenging.Others argue that stress isn't as bad as it often supposed to be.Unless it is overwhelming, a certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and stimulation.Without stress, you may slack off and idle away your time.It gives purpose and meaning to an otherwise meaningless, dull life.People under stress tend to bring their potential into full play and to realize their goals.In my opinion, we shouldn't escape from stress but to face it as it is.What we can do is to adapt to the stress and to profit from it rather than to avoid it.Sample 3 On disasters 面對(duì)災(zāi)難

Sample 1: Statistics of Family Expenses in Shanghai
As is shown in the table above, dramatic changes have taken place in family expenses in the City of Shanghai within two decades(from 1980 to 2000).The most obvious change is in expense on food and clothing, which has dropped by 48%, while those on recreation, education and health care have increased respectively by 5%, l6% and l0%.Expenses on other things keep rising from 17% to 35%.The statistics of rise and fall seem to exist in isolation but are in fact closely related to one another.The most likely factors accounting for these changes are as follows:
Development in economy is the fundamental one.The increased income results in the lowering percentage of food and clothing.Another factor lies in the development of people‘s concept.People begin to interest themselves in recreation and education.These changes should also be attributed to social reforms.In the 1990‘s, college education was not totally free as it was before, which also accounts for the rising expenses on education.Soon after, the government gradually stopped offering houses to its citizens without charges.People had to save a large proportion of their money for housing.That's partly why the expenses for ''others'' doubled.As for the more expenses on health care, I figure there are two main reasons: the cancellation of free medical care and people‘s awareness of the importance of health.The changes reflect the development of the city and indicate that people are enjoying more.Sample 2:

“To buy or to rent”, that is a question about living for most young people who just graduated from university or who have worked for one or two years in big cities.Many people see it as a torturing choice and feel weak in face of it.sub-topics:
1.Which one will choose or have you chosen? Why?
2.Discussion: the advantages and disadvantages of buying a house and renting a house.3.What's your expectation about the realty market in the coming 10 years?
Millions of Americans have been unable to pay the mortgage on their houses and have had to leave them.Many are now renting, but are finding it difficult financially
Owning your home was once part of the American dream.But that dream has faded because of the economic recession in the United States.Millions of Americans have been unable to pay the mortgage on their houses and have had to leave them.Without a home of their own, many people are now renting, but this also can be difficult financially.Until recently, Brenda Ganaway lived in a home of her own in Alexandria, Virginia, a suburb close to Washington, D.C.But then the economic crisis hit and she was unable to keep paying the mortgage on her house.“We were behind on a few payments and we couldn't get a loan anywhere, so they just immediately foreclosed it and told us we had a certain amount of days to leave,” she explained.There are millions of people like Brenda Ganaway in America now.Raphael Bostic is the assistant secretary at the U.S.Department of Housing and Urban Development, or HUD.He says the number of Americans who own their homes is steadily dropping.“The homeownership rate in the United States used to be somewhere close to 70 percent.We've fallen off by several million households now,” he said.“And so the rate is down considerably.And a lot of those have now gone into the rental market.”
Renting does have some advantages over home ownership.If a renter wants to move, for example, he does not have to worry about finding a buyer for the house.Yazgul Odekova manages a rental property in Alexandria.She says the major reason people rent is that it is usually less expensive than owning a home.“People rent for different reasons.Number one is affordability,” she said.“It is cheaper to rent and it is risk-free.”
Renting is cheaper for many reasons, says Arun Shu.He is an international businessman who rents a home near Washington.He says there are many costs to owning a house besides paying the monthly mortgage.“If you decide to buy a house, a lot of expenses are involved.Not only payment if you take a mortgage, but also you have to pay property tax, maintenance and upkeep of the house,” he said.“You probably will want to spend some money on renovating the house, remodeling parts of the house if you buy [a] used house.”
But even renting can be difficult in today's market, especially in big cities.Danilo Pelletiere is an official at the National Low Income Housing Coalition.He says there just are not enough homes to rent and poor people are the most affected.“In the United States there has been a focus both at the local level and a national level on home ownership.That affected renters, low-income people and the like and a result you have shortage of three million units of affordable housing for lowest income people,” he said.Even if a house is available, Mr.Pelletiere says, being able to pay for it is another problem.To afford the rent, he says, many poor people work more than one job.“Today you need multiple minimum wage jobs to be able to afford a two-bedroom apartment,” he added.“We calculated about $18 an hour.”
Even if a person can afford the rent there are other obstacles.Yazgul Odekova, the property manager in Alexandria, says most people just do not meet the necessary qualifications, such as being able to prove they can afford the rental payments.“Right now from every 10 application we turned down nine.It is not just because people are dishonest.Sometimes people have big medical bills, sometimes people have bankruptcy, because suddenly they became sick and don't have health insurance.Sometimes peoples' income is very low, sometimes it is unstable relationship between people,” Odekova said.HUD's Raphael Bostic says the U.S.government has programs to help low-income families pay the rent.“We provide direct subsidy where we try to make sure that families are not overly burdened [so we don't wanna go over that 30 percent ratio], but that they can get into some decent high-quality housing,” Bostic said.But most analysts agree that until the U.S.economy improves, buying a home or renting one will be especially hard for low-income people.1.My View on the Income Gap

Now the income gap is getting wider and wider.In some privately owned firms, joint-ventures, or foreign-fund companies, an executive‘s yearly income is ten times or even a hundred times as much as an ordinary worker‘s.Faced with this situation, people will undoubtedly have different opinions.Some believe that it benefits the social and economic development since driving force is often derived from the gap.In other words, the gap inspires people and gives a push to advancement.Others speak of its side effect: income gap is often the root of social unrest and also contrary to our country‘s principle.From my point of view, while it is true that the income gap may stimulate the social development to some extent, it causes trouble as well.An income gap that is too wide for most people to bear can neither contribute to the stability of a country nor promote its economic development.Therefore, while we are advocating the rapid development of our country, we should tolerate the narrow income gap but narrow the wide one.4.Fast Food

Fast Food
Fast food is becoming more and more popular in China, especially among children and teenagers.Today, nothing is more representative of the fast pace of modern society than fast food.There are several reasons for its popularity.First, it is quick and convenient.Go into a fast food restaurant, and your food will be ready in a minute.You can satisfy your hunger instantly.Precious time won't be wasted in waiting-in-line to order or waiting at your table for your food to arrive.Second, its popularity is also attributed to the clean food, the excellent service and the comfortable environment of the fast food restaurant.However, I think that fast food isn't healthy enough because it does not compose a balanced diet and is low in nutrition.Doctors suggest that people should avoid eating too much fast food.Although home cooking is time-consuming and following washing-u p tiresome, it offers healthy and delicious meals your body likes and needs.1.2010年作文預(yù)測(cè)--地震慰問(wèn)信

Every year, college students are inspired to help students with their study in underdeveloped areas in china.They have been trying their best to impart knowledge and offering help to those students who are so eager to learn.This volunteer practice has been beneficial in two aspects.On one hand, college volunteers are really devoted to the cause.They have opened the eyes of students in underdeveloped regions to the outside world by bringing them new knowledge and thoughts.As a result, they are extremely welcome and respected by the children there.On the other hand, college students have received a rigorous training by adapting to the harsh living conditions.They are learning how to deal with difficulties and face challenges as well.What‘s more, by any means, this volunteer experience will be always a valuable asset in his or her life.In my opinion, every Chinese citizen is responsible for the development of education in china.And we college students should take the lead in response to the appeal for offering aid to children in poor areas.
