第一篇:2009年12月四級考試預(yù)測作文
Topic l:Certificate Craze On Campus
1.近幾年大學(xué)生們熱衷于考取各種各樣的證書,校園內(nèi)出現(xiàn)“考證熱”
2.產(chǎn)生這種現(xiàn)象的原因
3.在我看來……
Nowadays there is a “certificate craze” on campus.Thousands of college students are keen on working for various certificates,such as CET Band 4 and Band 6 certificates,Business English Certificate,and other different professional certificates.
But why is there such a craze? First,it has much to do with the fierce competitive Workforce market.It is widely believed that the more certificates a college student has on graduation,the better chance he has for a decent job.Second,many students just want to prove themselves by working for a certificate.They have been interested in a certain field and have worked hard on it,so they want a certificate to justify their efforts.
I think the certificate craze is good for both the society and students.When students combine their work for some certificates with their academic efforts, their college life will be more fruitful than otherwise. Topic 2:On Food Safety
1.接連發(fā)生的食品安全問題引起大家的密切關(guān)注, 比如牛奶問題
2.請分析一下食品安全的重要性
3.你認為相關(guān)部門應(yīng)采取什么措施加強食品安全
The problem of food safety has attracted much attention recently.Everyone is astonished at the news that thousands of babies suffered from serious health problems because they had been fed with some poisonous milk products.
The issue of food safety is SO important that we cannot afford to ignore it.For one thing,food safety concerns the well-being of all the people in the country.For another,failure to ensure the safety of food causes damage to the image of our government,especially when such food is exported to other countries.Furthermore,unsafe food can undermine consumers’ confidence in the food industry,which may cause disastrous effect to our economy.
Therefore,our government should take all measures to make sure that all the food in our country is safe to eat.The government must strictly carry out food safety standards,and impose severe punishment on those who violate them. Topic 3:Avoid Plagiarism
1.論文抄襲(plagiarism)象頻頻出現(xiàn)
2.由此帶來的問題
3.如何杜絕這種狀況
Plagiarism has been an increasingly serious problem on campus.Many college students use others’ ideas without reasonably stating the sources.Even some professors are discovered to have borrowed passages from the works of others.
Undoubtedly plagiarism has much bad effect.First,those whose works have been plagiarized suffer losses because their efforts were not duly recognized.Second,those who plagiarize also endure great mental pressures.Plagiarism may have brought them something they need for the moment,but they are always in a fear that someday their plagiarism may be disclosed,and then their career may be totally destroyed.
Finally,plagiarism brings negative impact on the ordinary people.They may lose their faith in the academic field and no longer believe in the saying “Honesty is the best policy.’’
To avoid plagiarism,both prevention and correction are needed.For prevention,all people should be taught lessons on the various forms of plagiarism.For correction,severe punishment is called for when plagiarism is discovered. Topic 4:My View on Writing a Biog
1.越來越多的大學(xué)生以寫博客來記錄生活,表達感情, 發(fā)表意見
2.有人支持.有人反對
3.我的看法
More and more college students are becoming bloggers.They keep blogs to note down what happens to them,to describe their emotions and feelings,and to express opinions on current affairs.
There are different views regarding this phenomenon.Some people think it’s a good idea for college students to keep a blog.They say blogs do not only provide an outlet for the students’ inner feelings like traditional diaries,but also provide a channel through which young people can communicate with one another.Others think differently.They are afraid that some students have spent too much time on their blogs,trying hard to win clicks and replies.Therefore both their academic work and their everyday interpersonal relationships may suffer.
In my opinion.both views are reasonable.While writing blogs are advisable,the students also need to be aware of its potential shortcomings. Topic 5:Cars and Air Pollution
1.私家轎車越來越多.污染問題隨之產(chǎn)生
2.解決的方法是……
3.我對這種現(xiàn)象的想法
Too many cars have caused a lot of serious problems in our world.Besides congestion,accidents and fast fuel consumption,car8 are responsible for a good part of air pollution in big cities.
One possible solution is to design and develop clean cars and clean fuels.In Shanghai,some of the public buses begin to run on natural gas,which does not give off as much carbon dioxide as petrol.
Another solution is to develop modern public transportation systems and restrict the use of private cars.If the price of petrol rises constantly and the public vehicles are efficient and convenient enough,most people will not buy private cars.Thus,the total number of cars in big cities will reduce greatly.
On the whole,the elimination of air pollution needs the collective efforts from the government,the public and the environmentalists. Topic 6:On Volunteering
1.越來越多的人從事志愿工作
2.志愿工作對需要幫助的人和社會都有利,對志愿者本身也有好處
3.我認為……
The volunteering spirit has spread among the Chinese people in recent years,especially among young people.
Volunteering is of tremendous benefits to both those in need and society.Take the Wenchuan Earthquake as an example.Hundreds of thousands of volunteers play an active role in Wenchuan quake—hit areas.And they contribute daily necessaries,offer medical help and psychological help to the disaster relief work.
Besides, volunteering would be beneficial to the volunteers themselves.Getting involved in volunteering, volunteers will be exposed to a new environment, and they can learn how to work well in a team, how to improve their interpersonal skills and organizational skills,all of which are critical for their professional growth.
As a college student,I sincerely hope that everyone would join the volunteering work.It is not only good to our society,but also a chance for US to grow and to learn. Topic 7:A Letter to Computer Hackers
1.隨著電腦的普及,電腦黑客們也越來越猖獗;
2.分析他們的所作所為給社會、他人帶來的損失;
3.奉勸他們?yōu)榱俗约汉退四芷桨?、和諧地生活與工作.不要再做不該做的事情了。Dear hackers,With the growing popularity of the Internet and online transactions, one of the universal issues that has caused increasing concern is how to stay safe online, but your name never fails to cause panic among netizens.
When you,hackers,use your computers to gain unauthorized access to information on other people’s computers,you are committing crimes.On the one hand,with your breaking into computer systems run by banks,companies and even government departments, some confidential documents or data will be at risk of being leaked out.On the other hand,your existence makes people doubt the safety of the Internet and hesitate to be involved in activities such as on1ine business.
In an age of computer technology and network, cyber security is what we are looking for.No matter how interested in hacking you have ever been, please convert our interest, for example,into safeguarding our Internet.Yours sincerely,John Topic 8:Please Be Punctual
1.當(dāng)今社會,一些年輕人時間觀念淡薄,經(jīng)常不守時
2.不遵守時間有什么危害
3.大學(xué)生應(yīng)該從自身做起
With the advent of the era of knowledge economy,time is treasured by an increasing number of people.However, many young people attach little importance to punctuality,which,in my opinion,will give rise to many problems.
First,you may impress other people as being unreliable and dishonest.When you are late for a job interview,the boss may refuse to give you the chance since people tend to assume that if you cannot fulfill your promise,you have no sense of responsibility and can do nothing well.Second,others may think that you show no respect to them.
Therefore,university students should learn that punctuality is a good habit.Being punctual,you are showing respect to others and,in return,you will win others’ respect and trust. Topic 9:On Overseas Study
1.有人認為出國留學(xué)是個人發(fā)展的最佳選擇
2.也有人堅持在國內(nèi)也能實現(xiàn)自己的理想
3.我的看法
With the deepening of reform and opening-up of our country,many people dream of going abroad for further study.They insist that the modern research facilities, world famous professors and excellent environment in those foreign colleges can help lay a perfect foundation for their future development.
However,there are still many people who favor studying at home.They argue that studying abroad is too expensive and doesn't pay.They also point out that there are no language and cultural barriers if they study in our country.
Both opinions are acceptable in some sense.If students have the chance and financial resources,they should seize the opportunity to go abroad and broaden their eyes.On the other hand,if conditions don’t permit,they can pursue their studies in top universities at home.What counts is not the place where they study,but what they can learn. Topic 10:On Students Being Tutors
1.目前很多大學(xué)生利用假期尋找家教等工作;
2.大學(xué)生當(dāng)家教,既可以自食其力,又可以豐富自己的假期生活;
3.請你就此現(xiàn)象發(fā)表看法。
About two weeks from now,college students will begin to enjoy their long summer holidays.Many are looking for odd jobs,of which tutoring is almost the most popular one.
These students say,by doing part—time jobs,they can not only make some money for next term’s tuition,but also enrich their holidays.They prefer to be tutors because this has more to do with what they have learned in class.
As a student, I myself have also been a tutor.But I didn’t wait in line until 1 was chosen.I put up an advertisement with my school scripts attached.So,my suggestion to my fellow students is:be a tutor only when you are good at your courses. Topic 11:On TV Shows
1.時下電視真人秀(如超級女聲、夢想中國等節(jié)目)非常流行
2.有人認為真人秀很好,可以展現(xiàn)自己,體會人生, 有人卻不喜歡
3.我的看法
Nowadays,TV shows are very popular.TV programs like Super Girls and Dreams in China have attracted thousands of people to participate,and many more wait to watch them when they are on show.
Why are so many people interested in such programs? Advocates say that these programs provide excellent opportunities for young people to express themselves and to show their specialty.They help improve young people’s serf-confidence and can add to their courage.
However,some people criticize these programs,arguing that they are not only a waste of energy,money and time,but also a revelation of social vanity.
From my point of view,we need not be too critical about such TV programs.If they can bring happiness to those participants as well as to the audience,they are justifiably entitled to prosper.
Topic 12:Modern Technology and Human Intimacy
1.有人認為現(xiàn)代科技拉近了人與人之間的距離
2.也有人認為現(xiàn)代科技反而把人與人的距離拉遠了
3.在我看來……
Has modern technology brought people nearer together or taken them farther apart?
Apparently modern transportation,such as the plane,has made it easier and faster for people to travel around the world than before.Telecommunication technologies,such as the Internet,enable people to send information to a distant place instantly.Imagine it once took months before the emperor got to know the result of an important war!Therefore,it is safe to say that modern technology has significantly drawn people nearer.
However, some people feel differently.They say family members are no longer talking with each other over meals because they are watching TV.Many people now greet each other with short messages instead of visiting their friends and relatives in person.
It’s a pity that modern technology should make people feel farther apart.Actually,it is not modern technology,but our bad habit,that is to blame. Topic 13:An Inquiry Letter
假如你是某校輔導(dǎo)員劉梅.幾天前你給王先生發(fā)了一封請求信。內(nèi)容是請求對方安排學(xué)生去他所在的公司參觀,他回信表示同意。請你再寫一封詢問信。信中先簡要介紹參觀人員和參觀日程安排.并詢問是否可以召開學(xué)生和公司新員工的見面會等。Dear Mr.Wang,Thank you for your kind letter dated June 16th 2009 accepting our request for a field visit to your company.I have told the good news to the students concerned.They ale a group of 46 students aged between 17 and 18,and they are taking part in the visit as part of their career development program. would like to suggest June 28th for the visit.The group will leave at 9:00 am and should arrive at your company by 9:40 am.
By the way,would it be possible for the students to talk to some of your new employees at an informal meeting? would be grateful if you could inform me as to whether these proposals are suitable and 1 would like to thank you once again for your cooperation.
Yours sincerely,Liu Mei Topic 14:Please Observe Traffic Rules
1.據(jù)統(tǒng)計.13%住院治療的人是因為車禍
2.舉例說明不少司機、行人、騎車的人不遵守交通規(guī)則
3.呼吁為了自身和他人的安全,請自覺遵守交通規(guī)則
According to the latest statistics,13 percent of inpatients are hospitalized as a result of traffic accidents.The problem is getting worse with a rapid rise in the number of vehicles on the roads and increased violations of traffic rules by drivers,pedestrians and bicycle—riders.
Driving in wrong directions,making unsafe turns at will,running red lights and using the wrong lane to overtake,just to name a few,are common daily practices.Besides,ignorance of traffic rules is so popular that one may find himself the only person to wait for the green light while the majority of people will go straight ahead even when the red light is glaring.
That is a big problem in cities since a modem city needs not only skyscrapers,but also civilization in its people.If all people are willing to comply with traffic rules,our country will be a much safer place to live on.
Topic 15:Should College Students Be Involved in Business Activities?
1.現(xiàn)在有許多大學(xué)生參與商業(yè)活動
2.對大學(xué)生是否應(yīng)該參與商業(yè)活動有許多說法
3.我的看法
In recent years,a new phenomenon has quietly sprung up--college students participating in business activities.
Inevitably,like many other newly—emerged things,this has also received praise and criticism.
From my viewpoint,if the students can put what they have learned in school into practice or integrate their major with social activities,it is an important and valuable opportunity for them.But if they are just obsessed with the activities,that is,their exclusive goal is to earn money or to satisfy their excessive pride,it is not a wise action,and may even lead to some unexpected trouble.What’s more,if the students neglect their study,then it is no doubt putting the cart before the horse.College students who are involved in business activities should make clear to themselves the purpose of doing so,and make full use of the opportunity. Topic 16:On Energy Shortage
1.很多城市出現(xiàn)能源短缺現(xiàn)象
2.分析原因
3.提出建議
Energy shortage is a huge problem for modem society,and it has a negative impact on people’s daily life and economic development.
Many elements account for energy shortage.Firstly,rapid economic development prompts an increase of energy consumptions in different industries.Secondly,population growth creates greater demands for household energy usage.Thirdly,people have yet to develop the sense of energy conservation.
Actually we can do a lot to save energy in daily life.Turn off lights and fans when nobody is in the room;design buildings with the concept of energy saving;use public transit instead of private cars in rush hours…It is very easy for US to do these things as long as we have the sense of energy conservation, and we should do it right now!Topic 17: Should Free Music Downloads Be Banned? 1.越來越多的人開始在網(wǎng)上下載免費歌曲
2.有人認為這會嚴(yán)重影響唱片業(yè)的反戰(zhàn),應(yīng)該予以禁止,有人則不以為然 3.我的看法
With the development of technology, more and more people are making use of the Internet and are enjoying downloading all types of materials.Some are especially fond of downloading free music.They argue that free music downloads not only enrich our life, but also are good for the music industry because they help increase the popularity of music.However, from my point of view, it is not advisable to allow free music downloads.For one thing, they violate the intellectual property rights of musicians.For another, they have a negative impact on the sales of musical products such as CDS, which may do harm to the whole music industry.Without good returns, who would like to invest in the music industry?
In order that the music industry can develop healthily, we had better ban free music downloads.Let’s all start to do so with ourselves.Topic 18: Should English Classes Be Compulsory for Students? 1.目前,英語課是大學(xué)生的必修課之一
2.有人認為英語課不應(yīng)該被視為必修課,有人卻不這樣認為 3.我對此所持的看法與理由
Most universities in China have made English a compulsory course, which has aroused many complaints among students.Many students wish that English could be removed from the lsit of compulsory course.However, I think it is of great significance for al university students to study English.To begin with, as an international language, English is widely used.Today, university students must master the language if they are to communicate with foreigners and to participate in the fierce international competition in the future.In addition, studying English as a foreign language does not only provide students a useful tool for communication, but also open a door to cultures different from our own.As is universally acknowledged, mutual understanding among different cultures is vital for keeping the world safe and peaceful.Therefore, I strongly recommend that all students should take advantage of the compulsory course, and try to study English well.Topic 19: A Letter to the University President 1.表明寫信目的:建議提高學(xué)校的教學(xué)質(zhì)量
2.提出具體建議,如:改進課堂教學(xué)質(zhì)量,加強培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的自主學(xué)習(xí)能力,舉辦只是競賽以促進學(xué)習(xí)風(fēng)氣的改善 3.希望建議得到關(guān)注 Dear Mr.President,I’m a sophomore majoring in Law.I’m writing to make suggestions on improving the education quality of our university.First, I think there is still much room for improvement concerning our classroom education.Some teachers just recite textbooks and their courses are boring.It’s not very helpful for us.We need more interaction and communication in the classes, and we welcome more lively and practical course.Second, we students need help to develop our initiative in our study.I hope our university can invite some famous people to deliver lectures to us on how to study.Finally, in order to get all students involved in our studies, I suggest some contests be held in the university.For example, the Department of Law can have legal knowledge contests.Thank you for reading my letter.I hope my suggestions will be seriously looked to.Yours Sincerely,Li Ming

On Disasters
An old saying goes: Life is full of roses and thorns.As we all know, one’s life is full of unexpected events, some of which are wonderful and some of which are disastrous.Those heavy blows, such as floods, snowstorms and earthquakes, threaten to weigh one down.However, it’s even worse if one can’t drag himself out of the grief in that mental breakdown is more serious than the disaster itself.Instead of indulging oneself in sadness, one should take positive attitude towards life and contribute to the reconstruction of his or her life and hometown.As for me, if I am lucky enough to survive in a disaster, I will try my best to help those who are suffering by donation blood or money.If I am a victim, I will endeavor to recover from the sadness as soon as possible and be certain to be strong and supportive to the recovery work.作文題預(yù)測二:
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on the topic College Marriage.You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.參考范文:
College Marriage
Nowadays, news on college marriage has aroused a debate on whether college marriage should be advocated.Many people strongly oppose the phenomenon of college marriage.They hold that the chief task for college students is to study, and marriage will distract their attention and occupy a lot of time.Moreover, students are not economically independent, so marriage will cause a lot of problems such as future job hunting and housing, In a word, they believe marriage will largely hinder both present study and future work.From my perspective, I think college marriage should be permitted but be practiced with extreme care.On the one hand, the right of college students should be respected, as they are adults.On the other hand, the time in college is so precious that every student will think twice before they get married.Once married, they should be mature enough to balance academic and martial commitments.作文題預(yù)測三:

參考范文:
My View on Job-Hopping
Many people are inclined to do one job in their lives.In their opinions, people who change their jobs frequently are superficial and tactless.They believe that the only way to success is to stick to one job, because constant practice in a professional field helps make an expert.But there are still many people who don’t agree.They argue that change means progress.If you are not satisfied with your present job or you have some better opportunities, of course you have the right to replace it with a more challenging and better paid one.Every change is a step to further success.This idea may be the reason why they change their jobs so offer.For my part, I think it reasonable to change your job if you have a better opportunity.But once you have found a position where you can fully display your ability, it is advisable to settle down to it and put all your efforts into it.Only in this way, can you get the true joy of achieving your goal and improving your capability.【句型解析】
Every change is a step to further success.每一個改變都是向成功邁進了一步。點評:這句話短小精悍,富有哲理,其實生活中大家都要善于改變,接受新事物。

New technology links the world as never before.Our planet has shrunk.It?s now a “global village” where countries are only seconds away by fax or phone or satellite link.And.of course, our ability to benefit from this high-tech communications equipment is greatly enhanced by foreign language skills.Deeply involved with this new technology is a breed of modern businesspeople who have a growing respect for the economic value of doing business abroad.In modern markets, success overseas often helps support domestic business efforts.Overseas assignments are becoming increasingly important to advancement within executive ranks.The executive stationed in another country no longer need fear being “out of sight and out of mind.” He or she can be sure that the overseas effort is central to the company?s plan for success, and that promotions often follow or accompany an assignment abroad.If an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas, superiors will have greater confidence in his or her ability to cope back in the United States where cross-cultural considerations and foreign language issues are becoming more and more prevalent(普遍的).Thanks to a variety of relatively inexpensive communications devices with business applications, even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets.English is still the international language of business.But there is an ever-growing need for people who can speak another language.A second language isn?t generally required to get a job in business, but having language skills gives a candidate the edge when other qualifications appear to be equal The employee posted abroad who speaks the country?s principal language has an opportunity to fast-forward certain negotiations, and cam have the cultural insight to know when it is better to move more slowly.The employee at the home office who can communicate well with foreign clients over the telephone or by fax machine is an obvious asset to the firm.21.What is the author?s attitude toward high-tech communications equipment? A)Critical.C)Indifferent.B)Prejudiced.D)Positive.22.With the increased use of high-tech communications equipment, businesspeople ______.A)have to get familiar with modern technology B)are gaining more economic benefits from domestic operations C)are attaching more importance to their overseas business D)are eager to work overseas 23.In this passage, “out of sight and out of mind”(Lines 2-3, Para.3)probably means ____.A)being unable to think properly for lack of insight B)being totally out of touch with business at home C)missing opportunities for promotion when abroad D)leaving all care and worry behind 24.According to the passage, what is an important consideration of international corporations in employing people today? A)Connections with businesses overseas.B)Ability to speak the client?s language.C)Technical know-how.D)Business experience.25.The advantage of employees having foreign language skills is that they can _______.A)better control the whole negotiation process B)easily find new approaches to meet market needs C)fast-forward their proposals to headquarters D)easily make friends with businesspeople abroad In recent years, Israeli consumers have grown more demanding as they?ve become wealthier and more worldly-wise.Foreign travel is a national passion;this summer alone, one in 10 citizens will go abroad.Exposed to higher standards of service elsewhere, Israelis are returning home expecting the same.American firms have also begun arriving in large numbers.Chains such as KFC, McDonald?s and Pizza Hut are setting a new standard of customer service, using strict employee training and constant monitoring to ensure the friendliness of frontline staff.Even the American habit of telling departing customers to “Have a nice day” has caught on all over Israel.“Nobody wakes up in the morning and says, ?Let?s be nicer,?” says Itsik Cohen, director of a consulting firm.“Nothing happens without competition.”
Privatization, or the threat of it, is a motivation as well.Monopolies(壟斷者)that until recently have been free to take their customers for granted now fear what Michael Perry, a marketing professor, calls “the revengeful(報復(fù)的)consumer.” When the government opened up competition with Bezaq, the phone company, its international branch lost 40% of its market share, even while offering competitive rates.Says Perry, “People wanted revenge for all the years of bad service.” The electric company, whose monopoly may be short-lived, has suddenly mopped requiring users to wait half a day for a repairman.Now, appointments are scheduled to the half-hour.The graceless El Al Airlines, which is already at auction(拍賣), has retrained its employees to emphasize service and is boasting about the results in an ad campaign with the slogan, “You can feel the change in the air.” For the first time, praise outnumbers complaints on customer survey sheets.26.It may be inferred from the passage that _______.A)customer service in Israel is now improving B)wealthy Israeli customers are hard to please C)the tourist industry has brought chain stores to Israel D)Israeli customers prefer foreign products to domestic ones 27.In the author?s view, higher service standards are impossible in Israel ________.A)if customer complaints go unnoticed by the management B)unless foreign companies are introduced in greater numbers C)if there?s no competition among companies

C)the appointment takes only half a day to make D)they only have to wait half an hour at most 29.The example of El A1 Airlines shows that _______.A)revengeful customers are a threat to the monopoly of enterprises B)an ad campaign is a way out for enterprises in financial difficulty C)a good slogan has great potential for improving service D)staff retraining is essential for better service 30.Why did Bezaq?s international branch lose 40% of its market share?
A)Because the rates it offered were not competitive enough.B)Because customers were dissatisfied with its past service.C)Because the service offered by its competitors was far better.D)Because it no longer received any support from the government.以下信息不可外傳

On Cultivating the Sense of Gratitude
On college campuses across the nation, there is a noticeable phenomenon that we cannot afford to ignore: far too many young college students lack the sense of gratitude, one of the countless traditional virtues of this ancient land with a splendid civilization spanning over 5,000 years.These young adults were not and are not aware of the huge importance of expressing
gratitude to those who once helped them, from teachers to parents and so forth。
Personally, I deem that the root cause of students without a graceful heart is that they receive an education not valuing the moral sphere.I strongly believe that joint efforts from folks across society are the final remedy for this social headache.As young university students of the new era, we should make our own contributions to this cause.Imagine a world without the sense of gratitude.This kind of world is doomed to failure.Simply put, we should join our hands to heighten our awareness of fostering a graceful heart.Only in this way can we build our society into a harmonious one.My fellow students, I beg you to act from now on

On Uncivilized Behaviors
We cannot fail to notice that countless uncivilized behaviors exist in our daily lives, such as spitting, talking loudly, littering, saying nasty words in public places and so forth.All these are bad manners that we should not lose sight of.As an ancient land enjoying a splendid civilization spanning over 5,000 years, China is witnessing a surge in improper acts that every Chinese citizen should feel ashamed of.Uncivilized behaviors by a host of Chinese both at home and abroad have seriously affected China's image, according to an editorial posted on People Daily's official website。
As Chinese, we should not get offended when others point out our weaknesses but should focus more attention on improving ourselves.We should strive to identify the causes of those improper behaviors and find ways to eliminate them.There are a host of causes, I would argue, behind this trend.To name only one: the lack of moral education.The government should wage a massive moral campaign to fight against this trend and we ourselves should endeavor to behave decently in our daily lives.As college students of the new age, we should take the leading role。

great significance.And there is a diversity of measures we can take so as to lead such an environmental-friendly life.For one thing, we are expected to minimize the use of private cars, which emit a large amount of greenhouse gases.For another, we are supposed to cultivate the public awareness of energy conservation for energy in the world today is decreasing rapidly.For instance, we can turn off electrical appliances if not necessary as well as using renewable materials.Furthermore, at our leisure, we can seek opportunities to plant more trees which can absorb carbon-dioxide.In brief, low-carbon lifestyle is nothing but the best choice for us and only in this way can we form a harmonious relationship with the environment.2011英語四級考試作文預(yù)測:農(nóng)民工
Why Are There So Many Rural Laborers in Big Cities?
1.近年來越來越多的民工涌入大城市
2.產(chǎn)生這一社會現(xiàn)象的原因
【范文】
For a number of years, there has been a steady rise in the number of rural laborers who flood into big cities.Many men work on construction sites, while many women work as dishwashers in restaurants or babysitters for city dwellers.Three reasons, in my mind, can account for this social phenomenon.First and foremost, the limited land can no longer produce enough crops for an ever-increasing rural population.In the second place, there are far more opportunities in big cities—rural laborers dream of earning money through hard work.Last but by no means least, many of them want to live permanently in big cities, because they admire the way of living there, and wish their children to receive good education.I firmly believe that if we try our best to create a healthy social atmosphere, rural laborers will make greater contribution to our nation.【點評】

范文首先指出大量農(nóng)民工涌入大城市這一現(xiàn)象,并引出第二段所闡述的三個原因。首先,農(nóng)村有限的土地不能滿足日益增長的人口消費。其次,大城市有更多的工作機會。最后,農(nóng)民工向往大城市的生活,想永遠居住在大城市。末段總結(jié)指出,如果創(chuàng)造一個健康的社會環(huán)境,農(nóng)民工就可以為國家做出更大的貢獻。
第一段第二句中的construction site表示“建筑工地”,babysitter表示“幫人看孩子的人”。
第二段第一點中的rural指“農(nóng)村的”;第三點中的permanently和admire分別指“永久地”和“羨慕”,receive education指“接受教育”。

Studying Abroad
The past several years have witnessed a drastic increase in the number of Chinese students who choose to study abroad.As is illustrated by the column chart,the number ofstudents studying overseas has more than doubled from 2008 to 2013,climbing from 180,000 to around 410,000.
There are a variety of reasons for studying overseas.First,students can enrich their knowledge and enlarge their horizons by being exposed to entirely new ideas and cultures.Second,an overseas living experience allows a real-life use of a foreign language,so it can improve the efficiency in acquiring second-language skills.Last but not least,many people hold the idea that all overseas diploma from top universities in the world Can provide more competitive advantages for their future careers than a diploma obtained at home.
Generally speaking,studying abroad is valuable in one’s personal development. However,people should also be aware that it may not necessarily pay off due to the high financial COSffi and the potential challenges of adapting to a new culture.
出國留學(xué)
過去幾年見證了中國學(xué)生選擇出國留學(xué)在人數(shù)上的急劇增長。如柱狀圖所示,出國留學(xué)人數(shù)從2008年的18萬增加到2013年的41萬,增長了一倍多。
選擇出國留學(xué)的原因有很多。首先,通過接觸新的思想和文化,學(xué)生可以增長知識,拓寬視野。其次,國外生活經(jīng)歷可以使外語在實際生活得以使用,從而提高掌握外語技能的效率。最后但并非最不重要的是,很多人認為,同在國內(nèi)院校獲得的文憑相比,從國外頂尖院校獲得的文憑能給自己未來的職業(yè)發(fā)展帶來更多競爭優(yōu)勢。
總的來說,出國留學(xué)對于個人發(fā)展是很重要的。但是,人們也應(yīng)該意識到,由于較高的經(jīng)濟開支和適應(yīng)新的文化帶來的潛在的挑戰(zhàn),出國留學(xué)未必一定帶來好的結(jié)果。

Should We Help Others in Need?
The picture illustrates what we are often sorry to see in modem society:an old man is lying on the ground,while the passers-by are all hesitating over whether to offer help or not,fearing that it may incur unwanted trouble.
From my perspective,there are two reasons that may account for this phenomenon:on one hand,it is reported that some people wim evil intentions adopt this method to blackmail those friendly and helpful people.So people now are more risk-conscious and wary of such deceits.On the other hand,due to the increasing pressures from modern life and the well.accepted concept that time is money,people tend to care more about themselves than others,not to mention helping a stranger.
However,as we all know,being accommodating has always been seen as a virtue in Chinese culture.We should stick to and carry on this fine tradition.Of coursc,we should also look out for potential hazards so as not to be deceived.

在我看來,有兩個原因能解釋這種現(xiàn)象:在一方面,有報道說具有不良意圖的一些人用這種辦法來敲詐那些友善的、樂于助人的人。所以人們現(xiàn)在更具有風(fēng)險意識,對這種騙局更加警覺。在另一方面,由于日益增長的現(xiàn)代生活壓力和被普遍接受的“時間就是金錢”的觀念,人們更關(guān)心自己,不太關(guān)心別人,更不要提幫助陌生人了。
但是,總所周知,在中國文化中,樂于助人一直被看作是一種美德。我們應(yīng)該堅持并發(fā)揚這一優(yōu)良傳統(tǒng)。當(dāng)然,我們也應(yīng)該小心提防潛在的危險,以防被騙。

Dear Li Ming,I’m very glad to hear from you.Concerning my plan after graduation,I will probably continue my study as a postgraduate.
I have the following reasons.First of all,a higher degree and beaer educational background will give me an edge on the fierce competition of job-hunting because the fact that millions of college students enter the job market annually makes it difficult for US to find the job we want.Besides,as far as I am concemed,knowledge is,undoubtedly,an invaluable treasure of human being,and we should make full use of our youth to learn as much knowledge as possible.of course.staying in the Ivory Tower doesn’t suggest that l will be cut off from society;instead.I will get involved in social and practical activities in my spare time.
Taking all aspects into account.I choose to further my study and get a master’s degree.
Many thanks for your concern.Best wishes!

Trust Crisis
The picture vividly depicts the trust crisis in modern society:the customer doubts about the quality of a bargain,while the seller worries that the bill is counterfeit.This is a worrying social problem,which makes people always suspicious about others,and then affects social harmony.
To get to the root of this problem,we should call on the efforts from all sides to recognize the value of honesty and credibility in the tide of commodity economy.For one thing,the government should enact strict laws and regulations to punish frauds.For another,the mass media and education institutes should play a positive role in restoring mutual trust.
Finally,individuals should improve their own moral standards,and develop a sense ofresponsibility for others.
In short,being honest and credible is SO valuable a virtue that it should be the last thing that can be cast away.Everyone should watch out his behaviors and eradicate immediately the seed ofdishonesty once it is sowed in the mind.

要從根本上解決這個問題,我們應(yīng)該號召各方共同努力來認識到誠信在商品經(jīng)濟浪潮中的價值。首先,政府應(yīng)該制定嚴(yán)格的法律規(guī)定來懲治欺詐行為。其次,媒體和教育機構(gòu)應(yīng)該在重建相互信任上發(fā)揮積極作用。最后,個人應(yīng)該提高他們的道德標(biāo)準(zhǔn),培養(yǎng)對他人的責(zé)任感。
簡言之,誠信是一項重要美德,不應(yīng)該被丟棄。每個人應(yīng)該注意自己的行為,一旦腦子里有了欺騙的想法,就應(yīng)該馬上根除。

【范文】Youngsters’ Worship
Nowadays, star-worshiping is popular among teenagers, especially many university students.Why? When it comes to the symptoms of worshiping a star, the main factor I’d like to mention is imitation.With a blind love for their idols, teenagers firmly believe that their choices are the best.As a result, the stars’ clothes, hairstyles and hobbies, as well as their behaviors in public, are closely observed or followed, though, to some extent, they may be considered improper or even ridiculous.In my opinion, having idols is not a bad thing.However, we should make it clear who are the real “heroes”.As far as I am concerned, the real heroes are those who are making the most contributions to our society, such as teachers, doctors and scientists.As students, we should learn from them.Only in this way can we become useful persons in the future.On Pursuing Fashion

On Pursuing Fashion
Nowadays, more and more undergraduates are pursuing fashion.Some of them even cut down the expenditure on books and meals to satisfy their desire for fashionable items.The blind following of fashion has had a great influence on college students.First of all, the pursuit of fashion has made many college students get lost.Some of them even fail to focus on their study.Secondly, it is a costly hobby to follow the tide, which will impose great financial burden on their parents.As far as I am concerned, college students should cherish ambitions rather than become slaves of fashion.As for them, the main task on campus is not to pursue fashion but to study.All in all, undergraduates should adopt a more reasonable attitude towards the pursuit of fashion.預(yù)測作文8 Green Consumption
1.綠色消費的概念在中國日漸流行

【范文】Green Consumption
The conception of green consumption has gradually become popular in China.More and more green foods are making their appearance on the market and more and more people are becoming conscious of environmental protection.However, there still exist quite a few difficulties in the further promotion of green consumption.On the one hand, many people are still not quite clear of the advantages of green foods.On the other hand, due to high profits, many fake green foods are found in the market.Moreover, many consumers don’t want to pay extra money for green foods.There may be several ways to solve these problems.Firstly, the government should supervise the good quality strictly to protect consumers’ interests.Secondly, the conception of green consumption should be further promoted and emphasized.Thirdly, the government should work together with manufacturers to make the price more reasonable.
