As shown in the picture, a young woman is working at home. In a society where internet is widely used, the phenomenon is hardly surprising. By allowing employees to work at home, employers can widen the base from which they recruit and boost the chances of
capitalising on rich human capital. For instance, parents with childcare responsibilities and those with disabilities prefer to work at home.
Distance between their work place and their place of residence has never ceased to be a problem. Home working enables working people to perform their jobs at ease, and thus gives employers more options in human resource use.
Apart from those benefits, home working might have its drawbacks. Working at home deprives the employees of face to face communication with others, which is disadvantageous in social life. In addition, once any problem in work arises, it's impossible to discuss it with others immediately. In that case, home working can be very difficult and frustrating.
Therefore, I have to say that telecommuting job, like a coin, has two sides. It can provide convenience and satisfaction, but it may bringproblems and trouble as well. Hence, home working has a long way to go to become popular.

This is a tremendously interesting and thought－provoking picture. From the left picture, it describes a young mother holding a little girl’s hand. However, when you look at the right part of the drawing, you will see another picture which stands in marked contrast to the right part: an adult female supporting an old mother’s with her hand. As is vividly shown by the picture, the issue of the aging population in China has become a major concern around our society, which is increasingly serious.
The picture is attempting to convey a thought-provoking message.
Filial piety has been advocated as a traditional Chinese virtue throughout history. In the first place, every step of a child’s growth, from birth to death, bears so much time and energy of the parents and above all, their unselfish love. So our parents rightly deserve our reward—love, respect, care and support. Whatis more, family relationship is very much like a mirror. If you smile upon it, it will smile back upon you. By treating our parents kindly, we will set an example for our sons and daughters and gain their respect and love in return.
In a word, it is our innate obligation to be filial to our parents.

Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Parents are the best teachers. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
Throughout my life, I have been lucky enough to have a very good relationship with my parents. They have supported me, given me necessary criticism, and taught me a great deal about how to live my life. Parents can be very important teachers in our lives; however, they are not always the best teachers.
Parents may be too close to their children emotionally. Sometimes they can only see their children though the eyes of a protector. For example, they may limit a child's freedom in the name of safety. A teacher might see a trip to a big city as a valuable new experience. However, it might seem too dangerous to a parent.
Another problem is that parents may expect their children's interests to be similar to their own. They can't seem to separate from their children in their mind. If they love science, they may try to force their child to love science too. But what if their child's true love is art, or writing, or car repair?
Parents are usually eager to pass on their value to their children. But should children always believe what their parents do? Maybe different generations need different ways of thinking. When children are young, they believe that their parents are always rights. But when they get older, they realize there are other views. Sometimes parents, especially older ones, can't keep up with rapid social or technology changes. A student who has friends of all different races and backgrounds at school may find that her parents don't really understand or value the digital revolution. Sometimes kids have to find their own ways to what they believe in.
The most important thing to realize is that we all have many teachers in our lives. Our parents teach us, our teachers teach us, and our peers teach us. Books and newspapers and television also teach us. All of them are valuable.

The cartoon presents the Earth with a personified human face that seems quite unhappy. A examination of the picture immediately reveals that the source of its mood is the air pollution resulting from a huge number of automobiles spread around its surface.
The cartoon, no doubt, aims at alarming humans of the heavy load we have exerted on Earth by our insatiable production and usage of automobiles. However, the majority of people merely indulge in the celebration of the convenience brought by cars, while forgetting or simply neglecting their harmful impact on the atmosphere. Admittedly, there are various factors contributing to the current worldwide air pollution, but it is undeniable that the exhaust from automobiles is categorized as one of the major elements. I would like to make the following proposals to solve this problem: firstly, we should apply the most cutting-edge technologies in order to adopt new forms of energy as substitutes for fossil fuels. It should also be guaranteed that the clean energy be inexpensive so that it can be widely accepted. Besides, there should be attempts to develop possible transportation means, so that citizens can be diverted from dependence on cars. In short, it is humans‘ responsibility to resume clean air for Earth.

This cartoon is silly, and yet compelling: a large customer holds ahopelessly small piece of cloth as the tailor carefully measures. Such an imagesuggests that one needs to consider practical reality in the pursuance of acting on one's desires, while ignoring the facts at hand, cannot lead tosuccess.
The fact that currently there are more graduates than jobs reminds us ofthe importance of rational thinking. Every year approximately 3 million studentsgraduate from universities and begin looking for work. Many of them fail to findsuitable employment because there are simply not enough opportunities toaccommodate such great numbers of graduates. In addition, however, one mightalso cite flawed individual assessment as a reason.
In order to create a realistic target for one's future, one must makerational decisions and prepare accordingly. A student who aims to be a surgeon,for example, must take care to acquire opportunities to do clinical practice andgain sufficient knowledge. In other words, customers would do well to takeaccurate measurements before purchasing their fabric. A small piece of clothcannot adequately clothe a large person.

In the cartoon we can see a large person being measured by a tailor to getsuitable clothes made. Anything to be done must be measured in advance so thatwe are able to find a proper way to do it. If the tailor does not takemeasurements of the man, then he would not be able to make suitable clothes forthis person.
This same principle applies to solving any other problem. Firstly, when wewant to know the reality of something, we must describe it like it is, gettingrid of our prejudices and exaggerations, so that we can have an unbiased , the object should be analyzed in a concrete way so that we can graspthe reasons and rules of it. Thirdly, we must adapt our approach to solving aproblem, for each situation is different from the others. So we must view aproblem from different perspectives.
The cartoon implies different meanings to different people. A teachershould adopt different teaching methods according to the students in the class;a doctor should prescribe different treatments according to the patient'ssymptoms; a farmer should seed different plants according to the variousconditions of the earth. From a philosophical point of view, dissimilar problemsshould be approached differently. Good results come from attentive analysis of aproblem.

on university tuition system in china
directions: it is reported that many universities in china have begun to charge students for tuition. should university students in china pay their own tuition ? state two opposite opinions and illustrate them in detail. write an essay of about 200 words within 40 minutes.
tuition system has become one of the hottest topics in china since it was put into effect. reports on this topic are published in a variety of newspapers and magazines. people differ greatly in their opinions on it.
some people think that there is no university in the world which is open to students without tuition. as far as china is concerned, it is a developing country with the largest population in the world. the government is unable to allocate enough funds to pay for various teaching facilities and many different kinds of expenses. one of the ways to relieve the problem is for students to pay tuition. the money raised in this way can be used to improve the conditions for running schools.
others, however, are opposed to the tuition system. they argue that the living standard of the chinese people, especially of those in the poor rural areas, is still low, compared with that in the western world. the university tuition will certainly add to the already heavy burden of the parents, who live on their salaries or wages. moreover, tuition may become an obstacle to the development of china’s higher education. this is because it hinders some talented people from entering the university just on account of their poverty.

In some countries, teenager have jobs while they are still students. Do you think this is a good idea? Support your opinion by using specific reasons and details.
I dont think it is a good ideas for teenagers to have jobs while they are still students. It can interfere with their studies, It can disrupt their home life, and it takes away part of their childhood that their can never replace.
Education today is very complex and difficult .In order to learn and get good grades, a student must work very hard and concentrate, This means attending classes from early in the morning until late afternoon, then doing research for projects, then going home and doing homework. It’s a busy schedule for everyone. For someone trying to hold down a job, it’s even harder. Students need all their energy for their studies. If theyre working after class at night, they’re going to be tired the next day. They wont be able to concentrate. This will have a negative impact on their learning, and eventually on their grades.
Having a job can also disrupt a teenagers home life. Families spend less and less
time together. If a teenager has a job to go to after school, he wont be home for dinner.
He wont be home after dinner either, and may not get home until late at night, This means he doesnt have a lot of time to spend with his family .If he doesnt have a car, it can mean changes in his parents schedule ,too. They have to drive him to work and pick him up.
The main drawback of a teenager having a job while hes still a student is that hes missing out on the fun of being young. He has a whole lifetime in which hell have to earn a living. This is the last free time hell have, It’s the last chance hell have to hang out with friends and just enjoy himself. Soon enough hell have to worry about paying the rent and buying food.
Jobs bring money, but money isnt everything. A teenager with a job gives us too much. No one should spend all his time at working, and especially not a teenager.

From the table chart given above, we can observe that it reflects the statistics of students’ graduation intention. From 2004 to 2012, the proportion of students who are determined to further study increased rapidly from 45% to 76%. During the same period, the percentage of students who are willing to work after graduation remains steady.
The table chart informs us of the phenomenon that students in increasing numbers are willing to further study after graduation. What exactly contribute to this phenomenon? Reason can be listed as follows: for one thing, facing with intense competition in the employment market, quite a few students regard further study as a buffer. moreover, they are convinced that a higher education will put them in a competitive position in the future employment market. their decision could also be attributed to the power of so-called “group dynamics”: when their friends and classmates choose to study after graduation, they will be influenced easily and imitate others’ behaviors.
By observing the tendency of the past, we may forecast that the proportion of further study will continue to rise. However, students should bear in mind that a higher education will not guarantee them an ideal job. It is capabilities and skills that determine their future.

This picture is simple but significant. As is shown in the picture above, rising up his head, a young boy is holding a glorious sun with his firm hand. The caption indicates that, “ with dreams, our hearts can fly high; with flight, our dreams will not be far away.”
Why are dreams so importantWe may attribute its significance to three factors. First and foremost, dreams can give us courage and strength to overcome all the difficulties in our lives. Besides, having dreams is beneficial for us to be confident, passionate and energetic, and it may put us in a favorable position in our life journey. On the contrary, were there no dreams, our life will be dull and meaningless. Last but not least, if all of us have dreams, our society will be more vigorous and harmonious.
Considering every aspect of this positive issue, we should bear in mind that dreams are of great significance to both our society and , the mass media, such as television, Internet and radio, should try best to propaganda and advocate it. As for ourselves, we should take practical actions to cherish our precious dreams and let them be realized. Then, we have every reason to be convinced that we can have a bright future if we have dreams.

People attend college or university for many different reasons (for example, new experiences, career preparation, increased knowledge). Why do you think people attend college or university? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
People attend colleges or universities for a lot of different reasons. Career preparation is becoming more and more important to young people. For many, this is the primary reason to go to college, They know that the job market is competitive. At college, they can learn new skill for careers with a lot of opportunities. This means careers, such as information technology, that are expected to need a large workforce in the coming years.
Also, students go to colleges and universities to have new experiences. This often means having the opportunity to meet people different from those in their hometowns. For most students, going to college is the first time they’ve been away from home by themselves. In additions, this is the first time they’ve had to make decisions on their own. Making these decisions increases their knowledge of themselves.
Besides looking for self-knowledge, people also attend a university or college to expand their knowledge in subjects they find interesting. For many, this will be their last chance for a long time to learn about something that doesn’t relate to their career.
I would recommend that people not be so focused on a career. They should go to college to have new experiences and learn about themselves and the world they live in.

These two drawings, apparently, can be associated with two distinct habits. In the left one, there is a girl beside a desk, being absorbed in learning, with an idea in her mind —it is advisable to complete as early as possible. By contrast, in the right picture, a young guy sits leisurely in a sofa, telling himself, “I need not act until the deadline.” Finally, two Chinese characters can be noticed, which say “habit”.
Successful figures are usually characterized by their diverse merits, including diligence, perseverance and striving every day. However, in reality, a host of youngsters are accustomed to taking no action until the last day. This terrible habit is particularly worth concerning and as a matter of fact, their laziness has constituted an obstacle that hinders their personal growth and progress.
To my understanding, we are supposed to accomplish our assignments on time each day. This good habit can be likened to a journey, leading to success and a promising future. A case in point is myself. During the past year, as a senior who has been preparing for the national entrance examination for postgraduates, I have never postponed one day’s task until the next day. This excellent habit ensures my motivation for learning, brings me power and helps me accumulate knowledge every day.
To conclude, never put off till tomorrow what you can do today. Meanwhile, every one should bear in mind that a positive habit means a lifelong treasure.

显然，这两幅图能联系到两种截然不同的习惯。左图中，书桌旁有一个女孩儿，专注学习的同时，大脑中还在想：尽早完成才放心。相反，右图中，一个男孩儿悠哉悠哉地坐在沙发上，告诉自己：不到最后不动手。最后，两个汉字能被注意到，其内容是：习惯。
成功人士的特征通常是他们的众多优点，包括勤奋、持之以恒和每天的奋斗。然而，在现实生活中，很多年轻人习惯于直到最后一天才会有行动。这种糟糕的习惯很值得关注，而且事实上，他们的懒惰已经构成了一种障碍，阻碍着他们个人的成长和进步。
在我看来，我们应该每天按时完成当天的任务。这种好习惯能被比喻成一条路，通向成功和美好未来。一个典型例子就是我。在过去的这一年，作为一名一直在为考研做准备的大四学生，我从未将当天的任务拖延至第二天。这种好习惯确保了我学习的动力，带给我力量，帮助我每天积累知识。
总之，今日事今日毕。同时，每个人都应该牢记：一个好习惯是一生的财富。

xxxWhen people succeed, it is because of hard work, Luck has nothing to do with success.xxx Do you agree or disagree with the quotation above? Use specific and examples to explain your position.
When people succeed, it is because of hard work, but luck has a lot to do with it,too. Success without some luck is almost impossible. The French emperor Napoleon said of one of his generals, “I know he’s good. But is he lucky?” Napoleon knew that all the hard work and talent in the world can’t make up for bad luck. However, hard work can invite good luck.
When it comes to success, luck can mean being in the right place to meet someone, or having the right skills to get a job done. It might mean turning down an offer and then having a better offer come along. Nothing can replace hard work, but working hard also means you’re preparing yourself opportunity. Opportunity very often depends on luck.
How many of the great inventions and discoveries came about through a lucky mistake or a lucky chance? One of the biggest lucky mistakes in history is Columbus’ so-called discovery of America. He enriched his sponsors and changed history, but he was really looking for India. However, Columbus’ chance discovery wasn’t pure luck. It was backed up by years of studying and calculating. He worked hard to prove his theory that the world was round.
Success that comes from pure luck and no hard work can be a real problem. For example, consider a teenage girl who becomes a movie star.
Imagine she’s been picked from nowhere because of her looks. She is going to feel very insecure, because she knows she didn’t do anything to earn her stardom. On the other hand, think about an actress who’s spend years learning and working at her craft. When she finally has good luck and becomes a success, she will handle stardom better, she knows she earns it.
People who work hard help make their own luck by being ready opportunity knocks. When it comes to success. I think that hard work and luck so hand in hand.

“should men and women be equal?” this is an issue much talked all over the world. china has made great effort to improve the legal status of women and put the principle of equality into practice. however, women are still denied the right to compete with men on equal terms in many fields.
in this enlightened age, there still exist a certain number of men who view women as second-class citizens. they maintain many things men do could not be done by women, who are inferior, unreliable,irrational and weak. some men even say housework is the women’s task and the wives’ sacrifices are sure to set the husbands up for great success. so the former should have more rights than the latter.
nevertheless, women have shown their excellence and superiority in any fields. as football players, doctors, professors, scientists, and even presidents of countries, they are as good as men and have often put men to shame. they are so conscientious, industrious,and persevering that they frequently succeed brilliantly in all walks of life in addition to bearing and rearing children.
it goes without saying that from the time when mankind first appeared on the earth, there have been men and women. humanity could not have existed and progressed without either of them.

This cartoon depicts an ironic scene: a man is walking dangerously on a wire with a pole in his hand. On one end of the pole hangs a box which is named xxxthe convenience of jobsxxx while on the other end hangs a box which is labelledxxxillegal profitsxxx. The man is trying hard to reach the end of the wire, where a piece of papar is attached which says xxxyou should be responsible for what you have done. xxx However, the man believes that he will not be blamed since he has taken just a little. The sobering aspect of this cartoon is corruption always happens on those who think they are the lucky ones.
Human nature being what it is, most people have a kind of fluke mind that they may not be punished since the amount they take illegally is small. However, this idea could not be more wrong in our contemporary society. Let's assume that all the government officials in China hold this idea. If this assumption comes true, it will definitely exert a butterfly effect: the appetite of these officials will become even bigger. The amount of money they take may end up as astronomical figures. One day their behavior will be revealed as severe crime and they will spend the rest of their lives in jail.
So it can be justified without any exaggeration that when we look at the consequences of curruption, we may find it very difficult to assess the costs. But these costs can be very considerable and may even hurl the whole society system into a occurs to many that the most effective solution is to appeal to the authorities, or to take legal means. But that is just a passive wayand only works on extreme cases. Therefore, I recommend that massive media, school education and family cultivation should be activated to call for self-discipline on this matter.
这幅漫画描述了一个具有讽刺意味的场景:一个人走路危险与钢管线在手里。在杆的一端挂一盒被命名为“工作”的便利而在另一端挂一盒贴上“非法利润”。男人努力达到线的结束,在一片分析附加说“你应该为你的所作所为负责。“然而,男人认为他不会指责,因为他一点点。这幅漫画是腐败的发人深省的方面总是发生在那些认为他们是幸运的。
人性就是这样,大多数人有一种侥幸心理,他们可能不会受到惩罚,因为他们非法量小。然而,这一想法不能更多的错误在我们的现代社会。假设所有的政府官员在中国持有这个观点。如果这种假设成真,它肯定会产生蝴蝶效应:这些官员的胃口将变得更大。他们的.钱最终可能是天文数字。有一天,他们的行为将会发现是严重犯罪,他们将在xxx度过他们的余生。
所以可以证明没有任何夸张,当我们看的后果,我们可能会发现很难评估成本。但这些成本是非常可观的,甚至可能把整个社会系统陷入混乱。发生很多,最有效的解决办法是吸引当局,或采取法律手段。但这只是一个被动的学汉语只有在极端情况下工作。因此,我建议大规模媒体,学校教育和家庭培养应该激活呼吁自律在这个问题上。

For over a decade, the craze of Chinese college graduates taking qualifying examinations to become civil servants has remained unabated. An important proportion of graduates view civil service as their top priority in job selection and they spare no efforts in preparing for those examinations, sometimes years before their graduation.
To some extent, this craze is a modern revival of the ancient notion that “those who excel in academics end up in officialdom.” In the present-day China, however, there are complicated reasons underlying this phenomenon. The jobs in sectors other than civil service are insecure and unstable, and employees have to work under greater stress faced with growing competitions in the workplace and the industry. Some government departments are related to monopolized industries and civil servants can enjoy unusually high salaries and welfare benefits. Finally, government officials are usually regarded as occupying the highest rung of the social hierarchy and a student who succeeds in becoming government official is considered the pride of the family, adding prestige and glory to the entire clan.
For all the apparent attractions of the officialdom, the craze of entering the civil service is a distorted one. In the United States, truly ambitious students enter the industry instead of civil departments, where they apply their individual initiative to achieve personal success. It has already been pointed out that, with so many best minds of the nation fighting their way into the civil sectors, the consequences are catastrophic. The civil servants system, with its inherent bureaucracy and rigid rules, would inevitably turn the otherwise energetic and aggressive young people into docile followers of their superiors’ instructions and dutiful but mediocre implementers of executive orders. This will considerably undermine the vitality of a whole generation and the competitiveness of the entire country in the international arena. All forms of craze are accompanied by elements of irrationality and abnormality and, the sooner this craze vanishes, the better.

Nowadays, food has become easier to prepare. Has this change improved the way people live? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
The twentieth century has brought with it many advances. With those advances, human lives have changed dramatically. In some ways life is worse, but mostly it is better. Changes in food preparation methods, for example, have improved our lives greatly.
The convenience of preparing food today is amazing. Even stoves have gotten too slow for us. Microwave cooking is much easier. We can press a few buttons and a meal is completely cooked in just a short time. People used to spend hours preparing an oven-cooked meal, and now they can use that time for other, better things. Plus, there are all kinds of portable, prepackaged foods we can buy. Heat them in the office microwave, and lunch at work is quick and easy.
Food preparation today allows for more variety. With refrigerators and freezers, we can preserve a lot of different foods in our homes. Since technology makes cooking so much faster, people are willing to make several dishes for even a small meal. Parents are more likely to let children be picky, now that they can easily heat them up some prepackaged macaroni and cheese on the side. Needless to say, adults living in the same house may have very different eating habits as well. If they don’t want to cook a lot of different dishes, it’s common now to eat out at restaurants several times a week.
Healthful eating is also easier than ever now. When people cook, they use new fat substitutes and cooking sprays to cut fat and calories. This reduces the risk of heart disease and high cholesterol. Additionally, we can buy fruits and vegetable fresh, frozen or canned. They are easy to prepare, so many of us eat more of those nutritious items daily. A hundred years ago, you couldn’t imagine the process of taking some frozen fruit and ice from the freezer, adding some low-fat yogurt from a plastic cup and some juice from a can in the refrigerator, and whipping up a low-fat smoothie in the blender!
Our lifestyle is fast, but people still like good food. What new food preparation technology has given us is more choices. Today, we can prepare food that is more convenient, healthier, and of greater variety than ever before in history.

after years of enthusiasm for more children, childbearing is losing its appeal for many young couples, especially in big cities. many newly-weds put off having children or decide not to have any at all. the reasons are as follows:
there is a growing desire for the freedom and happiness of a childless life. more and more young people prefer to spend their precious youth, and their limited money and energy on other things like vacations. another reason is that they see childbearing as a heavy burden which will take up a lot of the fun time of their lives. reluctance to have children is also attributed to increasing demand for personality development and self-fulfillment. a large number of young people go to different kinds of schools after a day’s work to learn foreign language and computers. they are so busy working for diplomas and degrees, well-paid jobs and promotion that they can hardly consider having a child.
after all, the trend that young couples don’t want to become parents reflects a significant change in traditional values. modern youth no longer abide by the notion that to have children is to assure being taken care of in old age and carrying on the husband’s family to have children.

A person you know is planning to move to your town or city .What do you think this person would like and dislike about living in your town or city? Why? Use specific reasons and details to develop your essay.
A friend of mine from college is moving to my city, so I have been thinking about what she would and wouldnt like about it, I’d say the quality of life here, as far as fun and activities are concerned, is very good. The quality of life isnt very good, though, in other important ways.
Living in a lager city is exciting, but you pay a price for it. There are lots of interesting things to do, and good restaurants with food from around the world. There are museums, art galleries, and lots of movie theaters. However. the crime rate is high, and people have to be careful about where they go at night. Theres a lot of traffic most of the time, and finding a parking space can be a problem. There are also a lot of people living here. Sometimes it feels too crowded.
In a big city like mine, housing is very expensive. If costs a lot even if youre just renting an efficiency apartment. The good side is that theres a lot of choice about where you want to live and how you want to live. You can find apartment of all sizes in different settings. Houses of equal variety are available for sale or rent.
If my friend likes the great outdoors, she might be disappointed. Unfortunately, my city doesnt have a lot of wide open green spaces, and there arent a lot of trees on the streets. Were not near the ocean, and the mountains are a days drive from here. Still, we do have some natural areas. For example, we have a beautiful big park. It even has a lake in the middle thats used for ice skating in the winter. There’s a different kind of beauty in the city.
Thinking about it, I suppose whether my friend likes my city will depend on whether or not she likes exciting places. I hope she likes a lot of variety as far as housing and activities are concerned. If she does, then this is the place for her.

some people think it improper for college students to dance. they say dance distracts students from their atudy. it is time-consuming and also a waste of money. besides, when men and women dance together, an intimate feeling will arise. that is terrible. they may fall in love before marriagable age, which will affect their studies.
i think the above opinion is one-sided and prejudiced. in my opinion, dancing is a good oercise and means of relaation. after a weeks tense work and study, it feels good to sit in the ball room, listening to light music in the soft lamplight. the colorful lamps twinkle and glisten. the sea-like blue light reflected on the blue screen lends a feeling of coming to the sea. the waves of white blue light smoothe your soul and comfort your heart. i feel serene just sitting there listening to the gentle words of a love song, not to speak of the music is playing, you either chat or dance or make aquaintances. the more friends you have, the more enlightened and open-minded you are.
it cannot be denied that there are certain villains who want to take advantage of others and abuse dancing. we should not let the rat spoil the soup. just get rid of the rat. that is all. i prefer danceing once or twice a month to be relaed and refreshed for work and study.

In the pictures above are a father and her beloved son. In the left cartoon, smoking a cigarette and sitting in a sofa comfortably, the father is watching a football match on TV and shouting, “Son, study hard for me!” On the contrary, in the left portrayal, at 9 . , the father is studying together with his son, both totally absorbed in their books. The caption indicates, “Instead of merely making a request, setting an example.”
The purpose of the pictures is to show us that utmost significance should be attached to practicing what you preach. On the one hand, parents teach much more by their actions, than by their words. Some of them may say to their children, “don’t say nasty things about so and so”, and then the children will hear them criticize their friends and neighbors. On the other hand, parenting is such a crucial responsibility, yet there are no required courses to prepare one to undertake this role in life. The only learning is the example from one’s own parents.
To sum up, parents are the best teachers.
Obviously, if parents’ actions don’t conflict their own words, they would have the opportunity to be outstanding examples of their children. Just as an old saying goes, “Action speak louder than words.”
在上面的图片中是一个父亲和她心爱的儿子。在左边的卡通,抽着烟,舒适的坐在沙发上,父亲在电视上看一场足球赛,大喊一声:“儿子,给我努力学习!“相反,在左边的描述,在9点,父亲和他的儿子一起学习,完全沉浸在他们的书。标题所示,”而不是仅仅发出请求,树立榜样。”
图画的目的是告诉我们,最大的意义应该练习你所说。一方面,父母教更多的行动,而不是他们的话。他们中的一些人可能会对他们的孩子说,“不要说坏话某某”,然后孩子们会听到他们批评他们的朋友和邻居。另一方面,父母是这样一个至关重要的责任,然而没有必修课程准备一个在生活中承担这个角色。唯一的学习例子从自己的父母。
总之,父母是最好的老师。
显然,如果父母自己行动不冲突的话,他们将有机会成为优秀孩子的例子。正如那句老话,“行动胜于言语”。

Given is a pie chart, clearly illustrating the striking contrasts in college students’ reading purposes on mobile phones in a certain university. Overall, the aim of learning ranks the first, accounting for 58%. Then, the next is searching for information, with 28%, followed by entertainment, at 12%.
These statistics above can be associated with the importance of mobile phones in students’ learning and daily life, but what result in the differences? On the one hand, smart phones are characterized by the diverse and powerful functions, which brings them great convenience and enhance their learning efficiency. A typical example is that they, with cell phones, can take online courses and look for useful information anywhere. On the other hand, compared with others, university students suffer greater mental stress, so they relax by listening to music or watching videos on phones.
As a youngster, I believe that we should use mobile phones in a rational way. Meanwhile, it is not advisable for anyone to be addicted to online games or social networks.

以上数据使人想到手机在学生的学习和日常生活中的重要性，但是，是什么导致了这些差异？一方面，智能手机有多样和强大的功能，给他们带来了极大的方便并提高了他们的学习效率。一个典型的例子是，他们可以使用手机在任何地方上在线课程、查询有用的信息。另一方面，与其他人相比，大学生承受着更大的精神压力，所以他们通过用手机听音乐或看视频来放松。

A recent survey analyzed the change in number of film-goers and TV watchers in X city. As is shown by the graph, there has been a sharp decline in the number of film-goers during the period from 1992 to 2002, adding up to 20,000 in 2002. On the other hand, the number of TV watchers has steadily increase in the last decade, reaching 150,000 in 2002. Finally, it is interesting to note that there were as many film-goers as TV watchers in year 1998.
There might be two reason, I think, for the change. Firstly, TV is not only a convenient source of entertainment, but a comparatively cheap one. There is no point in arranging transport. And one needn’t pay for expensive seats at the cinema. Secondly, TV makes it possible for one to keep track of current events and the latest developments in science and technology. As a consequence, most people prefer to stay at home, watching TV, rather than go out to the cinema, which wastes both time and money.
Personally, there are still a lot of people who enjoy watching films. They argue that the film is a fascinating form of art. Sitting comfortably in the cinema, one can appreciate the latest movies, which will usually be shown on TV far later on. Therefore, I trust the number of film-goers will be on the rise in the future.

The bar chart clearly indicates the turnover of online shopping and its growth rate in China from 2001 to 2022. During that period, there was a dramatic increase from billion to 125 billion in its turnover. Meanwhile, the growth rate decreased from 200% to at the same time.
Why dose this phenomenon take placeThere are generally three factors accounting for it. First and foremost, due to the fast economic and social development, people enjoy a sharp improvement in their living standards. Accordingly, they can afford to buy computers and mobile phones: the common tools for shopping online. Besides, e-shopping is extremely convenient and efficient. It is available 7/24 and this means people can buy what they want anytime without going out. Last but not least, the price of the goods online is much lower than those in the stores, which greatly caters to the consumer's needs.
From what has been discussed above, we can predict that the turnover of online shopping will continue to increase at an alarming rate and it will give a huge boost to our national economy. However, we should also be aware of its drawbacks, such as fake commodities, personal financial security, illegal ads and so on. Thereby, we should take a reasonable and scientific attitude towards it.

Should governments spend more money on improving roads and highways, or should governments spends more money on improving public transportation ( buses, trains, subways)? Why? Use specific reasons and details to develop your essay.
Governments should definitely spend more money on improving all forms of public transportation. These include buses, subways and trains. This is the best way to preserve natural resources and reduce pollution.
As a planet, we’re dealing with a finite amount of natural resources. Once they're gone, they can't be replaced. They can't fill our need for oil and gasoline forever. But we seem to forget that and consume them at an incredible rate. In wealthier counties, some families have two or three cars. As soon as teenagers get their driver's licenses, they’re given cars so their parents won't have to drive them places.
Public transportation hasn't been sufficiently developed. Because of this, suburban areas surrounding cities have been allowed to sprawl more and more widely. This means that people can't even go to the store without having to hop into the car. Everything is too far away from where they live. If there were better and more frequent public transportation, people would be able to give up their cars for local driving.
As a result of all the cars being driven, we’re dealing with terrible pollution problems. In big cities, there are days during the summer when the elderly and people with respiratory problems are advised not to leave the house. Ten years ago this was unheard of! Now it's the norm. Public transportation would cut down considerably on air pollution.
Public transportation also encourages a sense of community. People who travel to work together all the time get to know each other. Car isolate us from neighbors. However, people feel they need to drive because they can't depend on public transportation to fit their schedules. If more money were available, buses, subways and trains could run 24 hours a day. Then they would be available all the time to the people who need them.
I always try to take public transportation whenever possible, and I encourage friends and neighbors to try it too. I think we must support public transportation in order to create a better world.

It has been said, “Not every thing that is learned is contained in books.” Compare and contrast knowledge gained from experience with knowledge gained from books. In your opinion, which source is more important? Why?
“Experience is the best teacher” is an old cliché, but I agree with it. The most important, and sometimes the hardest, lessons we learn in life come from our participation in situations. You can’ learn everything from a book.
Of course, learning from books in a formal educational setting is also valuable. It’s in schools that we learn the information we need to function in our society. We learn how to speak and write and understand mathematical equations. This is all information that we need to live in our communities and earn a living.
Nevertheless, I think that the most important lessons can’t be taught; they have to be experienced. No one can teach us how to get along with others or how to have self-respect. As we grow from children into teenagers, no one can teach us how to deal with peer pressure. As we leave adolescence behind and enter adult life, no one can teach us how to fall in love and get married.
This shouldn’t stop us from looking for guidelines along the way. Teachers and parents are valuable sources of advice when we’re young. As we enter into new stages in our lives, the advice we receive from them is very helpful because they have already bad similar experiences. But experiencing our own triumphs and disasters is really the only way to learn how to deal with life.

The above two pictures have shaped sharp contrast to each other. In one picture, a flower grows in a greenhouse and is in full bloom in spite of the outside rain. But in the other, the flower, moved outside and without the protection of the greenhouse, is withering in the thunderstorm. The two pictures show us that the flower, which is raised in a greenhouse and carefully protected, cannot stand natural wind and rain at all.
It is most likely that the drawer means to compare children in our country to the flower in his drawings and reflect a problem in the present education of our children. For one thing, nowadays, most children are brought up by their parents with tender care. Parents always try their best to meet the children’s demands, to provide them with the best environment of growth and study and to protect them from any possible harms, setbacks and sufferings. For another, owing to the present examination’ oriented education system, most children are too heavily burdened with studies to have time to take part in social activities, so they learn little about the society, the real world outside their family and school. Growing up in such a manner and such an environment, the children will inevitably and naturally lack the ability to stand sufferings and overcome obstacles when they leave their parents and step into the society.
To sum up, the problem of children’s education must be solved timely and effectively because it is they that constitute the future of our country.

What an impressive picture it is！Two young men sitting on the boat are throwing rubbish into the lake, with all kinds of garbage floating on the surface. What is conveyed in the picture is both realistic and thought-provoking.
Clearly, we can deduce from the picture that with the rapid development of economy, tourism as a form of enterprise brings China a lot of benefits, but the environment is being polluted tremendously. In public places people have no awareness that they are doing something damaging the environment, the only environment we have. They cause inconvenience and discomfort to other tourists, and also degrade Chinas image as a nation.
What can we do then? First, I think that government should issue severe regulations, punishing any behavior that damages the environment. Second, the environment protection awareness of the public should be enforced. People should know how closely the clean environment is related to their personal lives. Lets hope we will have a cleaner and more beautiful world in the near future.
多么震撼的画面啊！两个年轻人坐在船上扔垃圾到湖里，各种浮在表面的垃圾。图片中反映的问题是既现实又发人深省。
显然，我们可以推断出的画面，随着经济的快速发展，旅游业给中国带来了很多好处，但环境被污染了。在公共场所，人们没有意识到他们正在做的事情，破坏环境，我们唯一的环境。他们造成不便和不适的其他游客，并降低中国的形象作为一个国家。
我们能做些什么呢？首先，我认为政府应该严厉惩罚条例的问题，任何行为，损害环境。其次，公众的环境保护意识势在必行。人们应该知道如何密切的'干净的环境是他们的个人生活有关的。希望我们在不久的将来会有一个更美好的世界。

One glance at a pyramid can leave the viewer in awe of its beauty andsplend or. Upon closer examination, however, one might be surprised to discoverthat such a grandiose structure is composed entirely of ordinary stones.
Most people are familiar with the proverb: Rome was not built in a day. Anobject as grand as a pyramid is likewise not so quickly or easily as the greatness of the city of Rome is due to the combination of itssmaller parts, a pyramid is only as strong as the stones it is comprised of. Theimage of a pyramid reminds us that great success is in fact an accumulation ofsmall a chievements.
History proves that many famous artists and scientists are only successfulbecause of their continued efforts, even after numerous failures. One mightrecall Leonardo DaVinci's drawing of an egg, Wang Xi Zhi practicing handwriting,or Thomas Edison inventing the light bulb, for example. The fable that tells usthat even water can eventually pierce through stone also points to theimportance of patience and diligence. We should take such stories and historiesinto account and remember the importance of fundamentals; remember that one canbuild a pyramid only if one is willing to work with small stones. People wouldbe wise to abandon rash inclinations and instead try in earnest. Perseverance issure to leadto success.

Some people prefer to eat at food stands or restaurants. Other peopleprefer to prepare and eat food at home. Which do you prefer? Use specificreasons and examples to support your answer.
Some people like to eat out at food stands and restaurants, while otherslike to prepare food at home. Often it depends on the kind of lifestyle peoplehave. Those with very busy jobs outside the house don't always have time tocook. They like the convenience of eating out. Overall, though, it is cheaperand healthier to eat at home.
While eating in restaurants is fast, the money you spend can add up. When Ihave dinner at restaurant with a friend, the bill is usually over twentydollars. I can buy a lot of groceries with that much money. Even lunch at afast-food stand usually costs five or six dollars for one person. That’s enoughto feed the whole family at home.
Eating at home is better for you, too. Meals at restaurants are often highin fat and calories, and they serve big plates of food--much more food than youneed to eat at one meal. If you cook food at home, you have more control overthe ingredients. You can use margarine instead of butter on your potatoes, ornot put so much cheese on top of your pizza. At home, you can control yourportion size. You can serve yourself as little as you want. In a restaurant, youmay eat a full plate of food xxxbecause you paid for itxxx.
It's true that eating out is convenient. You don't have to shop, or cook,or clean up. But real home cooking doesn't have to take a lot of time. There arelots of simple meals that don't take long to make. In fact, they're faster thaneating out, especially if you think of the time you spend driving to arestaurant, parking, waiting for a table, waiting for service, and drivinghome.
Both eating at restaurants and cooking at home can be satisfying. Both cantaste good and be enjoyed with family and friends. I prefer cooking at homebecause of the money and health issues, but people will make the choice thatfits their lifestyle best.

As is shown above, in the middle of the cartoon stands + 主题词，which symbolizes + 主题词的另一种表达，+ 同位语即主题词第三种表达 + 表示主题词动作的非谓语动词 (例如：in the middle of the cartoon stands a hot pot，which symbolizes culture，the one containing many Chinese culture symbol. The drawer's intention seems to be highly self-evident and the meaning causes us to be thought-provoking. It is therefore safe to draw the conclusion that + 主题词 + is momentous and fundamental to the mind what food is vital and significant to the body.)
Not only I, but also the best philosophers and poets also praise that this concept should be a permanent universal values. Obviously, I can think of no better reasons for the phenomenon other than the following two. Initially, the millennia-long run of + 主题词 + left us with a lot of traditions that are extremely profoundly rooted. 加拓展句：主题词 is a kind of emotional strength, which can support us no matter how dark around us becomes.(比如：爱心/自信/亲情/团结/坚持/诚信/友谊/乐观的态度/是一种情感的力量，无论我们周围有多么的黑暗，它都能支持我们。) Additionally, our government's effective measures and policies are playing a significant role in the realization of such a situation(.加拓展句：without 主题句，the heart would break.上面的主题词都可以套进去，比如：没有爱心，心灵将会枯竭。) Just as an old Arab proverb has it, there is a growing tendency for the public in the west to think the significance of + 主题词.
From what has been discussed above, the most important thing is not to say, but instead to do. Chinese citizens are expected to enhance their awareness that it is an indispensable part for the construction of harmonious society. Only in this way, can we /our country/ the individual have a glorious future.)

This pie chart clearly illustrates the purposes of students’ touring in a certain university. As is reflected by the diagram, 37 percent of college students travel in a bid to appreciating the scenery, next comes the aim of relieving pressure, accounting for 33% percent. By contrast, the percentage of students travelling aiming at others, making friends and cultivating independence account for 15%, 9% and 6% respectively.
Several primary factors could contribute to this phenomenon. In the first place, travel can offer us a wide range of experiences. In travelling, we may join tourists marveling at the incredible power of Niagara Falls, mingle with the happy throngs strolling in the Paris boulevards and experience the bitterness and joy of people on different lands and in different times. In the second place, college students, who have to juggle academic work, romantic relationships and a busy social calendar, are particularly susceptible to pressure. By touring, they can successfully manage and reduce stress.
Taking all these factors into consideration, we may predict that with the quickening pace of campus life and ever-increasing pressure, the number of university students touring will keep growing in the forthcoming decade.

It is vividly depicted in the cartoon that a boy is running along the racetrack with painstaking efforts, sweat pouring down his face. After a long journey, he is making the final spurt toward the finishing line, with strong determination to become the champion. It seems that he could rest for a while to enjoy the ecstasy of victory. However, straight ahead lies a sign which indicates a new xxxstarting pointxxx and urges him to continue rushing to the next destination.
Undoubtedly the cartoon conveys the meaning that life is like the process of running in which one should make constant efforts and never stop making progress. Owing to the quickening pace of life, competition goes increasingly fierce in all walks of life, stimulating everyone to pursue one goal after another.
Once a person stops making progress, he can hardly maintain his past glory and survive in this competitive world. As Deng Xiaoping, the great Chinese leader said, xxxdevelopment is the only way.xxx No matter how powerful a country is, no matter how successful a specific institution, it will definitely seek new development in high speed. Generally speaking, neither a country nor a person can remain stagnant.
A case in point is the successful launching of xxxShenzhou V Spacecraftxxx which sets china in a high position of aviation and space flight. Although it means a great achievement for us Chinese, we are facing new challenges in the future and need to do further research in space technology. Another illustration is closely related to us, the examinees. If we pass this test and are fortunately admitted by a university, we shall not stop making efforts. Instead, we are confronted with the challenge of conquering the difficult graduate courses. We still have to strive for success in our future academic study, employment and career. On the whole, these examples effectively clarify the saying that xxxdestination is another starting point.xxx

In the cartoon we see a servant bringing a cup of coffee for the emperor. The joke is that the idea of emperor and the idea of coffee do not usually come together. It is funny to think of the emperor drinking coffee. But the cartoon may yet have another meaning. It implies that emperor, if he were still there today, would learn to drink coffee. Modernization is a historical trend.
China is a country with a long history. It has special traditions and customs. They are the nation’s great treasures which we should do our best to preserve. However, as China opens up to the world, more and more foreign ideas and products come into country. How we take this western influence and what relationship should be established between the east and the west have become urgent questions for us to answer. For example, should we allow a coffee shop to be opened in the Forbidden City, a place which is thought to represent the essence of oriental life? Can the coffee shop integrate itself into the surrounding or will it from an eyesore?
I believe that we should be open-minded about western influence. If it is good, we should not refuse it. A coffee shop in the Forbidden City will not pose an threat to our traditional culture. It will instead provide a convenient resting place for visitors who have to walk through the huge palace. The spirit of the 21st century is one of cooperation and coexistence. We should allow different cultures to exist together and flourish together.

From this graph，we can come to the safe conclusion that the Chinese automakers are doing a good job in outcompeting their Japanese and American counterparts in 2009，but the gap is not so significant and if no efforts were made from the part of the Chinese auto industry，the distribution map might be rewritten in the future.

Thirdly, it is fruitful for us to learn from the book after reading it.

With reading, we can learn innumerable things we do not know, be aware of what has happened in the past as well as what is going to happen in the future, and solve the urgent problems that beset us.
