　　1. 图画作文：传统文化/外来文化/文化交流

　　An American girl in traditional Chinese costume

　　Directions:

　　For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay based on the picture below. You should start your essay with a brief account of An American girl in traditional Chinese costume and then explain the importance of cultural exchanges. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words。

　　The picture vividly depicts a lovely American girl in traditional Chinese costume with a sweet smile on her face. She wears ribbons, necklaces and other accessories that are characteristic of the clothes of a certain Chinese minority group。

　　The fact that people from different countries are attracted to mysterious Chinese culture indicates that to some extent a culture can be accepted, respected, appreciated and shared internationally. In other words, a nation’s unique/distinctive culture can become international through worldwide economic and cultural exchanges. Since the trend of globalization becomes irresistible, the increasing cultural exchanges can effectively improve mutual understanding and friendship。

　　It is my view that national culture as priceless spiritual treasure should be preserved and cherished. Meanwhile, there are good reasons to advocate international culture for those ideas from the other cultures, controversial or even absurd at first sight, can provide a different perspective for us to observe the world in the long run. Nevertheless, when we are confronted with a different culture, we should be sensible enough to absorb its essence and to resist its dark side。

　　参考译文

　　这幅图画生动描述了一位可爱的美国小女孩身穿传统的中国服装，面带甜蜜的微笑。她戴着具有某个中国少数民族服饰特征的发带、项链和其他装饰品。

　　神秘的中国文化吸引了各国人民这一事实，显示了在某种程度上，一种文化可以被国际性地接受、尊重、欣赏和分享。换而言之，一个民族*特的文化可以通过全球性的经济和文化交流走向世界。由于全球化潮流不可阻挡，所以文化交流可以有效增进相互间的理解和友谊。

　　在我看来，我们应该保存和珍惜作为无价精神财富的民族文化。同时，我们很有必要推广世界文化，因为来自其他文化的观点，即使乍看起来相互矛盾或荒谬，但从长远看来，可以为我们观察这个世界提供一种不同的视角。

　　2.图画作文：环境保护

　　Directions:

　　For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay based on the picture below. You should start your essay with a brief account of environmental pollution in some scenic spots and then explain the importance of environmental protection. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words。

　　旅程之“余”

　　As is subtly portrayed in the cartoon, two tourists are taking sightseeing on a small boat while discarding their picnic leftovers casually into a lake. And below the drawing, there is a topic which says: "after" the travel or "me" in the travel。

　　From the portrayal, we can conclude that the painter wants to convey such a message: a good many scenic spots are flooded with visitors, who spoil the beauty of nature by creating and leaving behind God-knows-how-much trash. On the one hand, tourism, as a multibillion-dollar business, is booming everywhere. On the other hand, tourism has exerted great pressure on the environment we are living in: water is polluted, the ecological system is disturbed, and natural resources have been excessively used。

　　Undoubtedly, tourism could not be banned in any country as it does help to shore up the economy in places which offer few sources of income. The significant point is that the unchecked growth of the travel business may render the development of an economy unsustainable。

　　参考译文

　　如图所示，两名游客正在一艘小船上观光，同时把野餐的剩余垃圾随意丢入湖中。在图画下方，有个小标题写明：“旅程之‘余’”。

　　从漫画中，我们可以得出结论，画家想要表达下述信息：成群的游客涌入很多景点，制造并丢弃了大量的垃圾，影响了大自然的美观。一方面，旅游业作为一项数十亿美元的产业，正在世界各地迅猛发展。另一方面，旅游业已经对我们生存的环境造成了巨大的压力：水受到污染，生态平衡遭到破坏，自然资源被过度开发。

　　毫无疑问，由于在其他收入很少的地区，旅游业确实有助于发展经济，因此任何国家都无法禁止旅游业。但重要的是旅游业毫无节制的发展可能使得经济发展不可持续。

　　3.提纲作文：网上购物

　　Directions:

　　For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Online Shopping. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below。

　　1. 现在网上购物已成为一种时尚

　　2. 网上购物有很多好处，但也有不少问题

　　3. 我的建议

　　Nowadays, can we find a person who has not heard of online shopping? It may be a little difficult. Online shopping is coming into fashion in most cities due to the rapid development of Internet technology。

　　Online shopping is welcomed by the majority of people owing to its obvious advantages: it’s convenient and people can do it 24 hours. You can shop whenever you want——if you want to buy a mobile phone at 2 a.m., you can. Unfortunately, shopping online has its own disadvantages too: you can’t touch the item, let alone try it on. The material of the dress that you see on the screen may be flimsier than what you had expected, and it will probably look much better on the model than it does on you。

　　Personally, I find buying online to be an excellent way to shop for certain items. Nevertheless, for other items, such as clothes, I reckon it is better to shop at a regular store. In a regular store, you can see the real color, feel the material, and try it on。

　　参考译文

　　现在，我们能够找到从未听说过网上购物的人吗？恐怕有点困难。由于互联网技术的飞速发展，网购在大多数城市都已成为时尚。

　　由于网购具有的明显优势，即其方便性以及随时性，大多数人都喜欢网购。只要喜欢，你可以随时购物——如果你想半夜两点买部手机，没问题。然而，网购也有其缺点：你无法接触商品，更别说试穿了。你在屏幕上看到的衣服材料可能比你预期的要更薄，而且很可能穿在模特身上比你更好看。

　　个人而言，我认为网购对于购买某些商品是一种很好的方式。然而，对于诸如服装等其他商品，我认为*好在传统商店购买。在传统商店，你可以看到真正的颜色，感觉面料，并且试穿。

　　4. 图表作文：教育

　　Directions: In this section, you are asked to write an essay based on the following diagram. Describe the diagram and analyze the possible causes. You should write at least 150 words。

1998-2004年全国工程硕士招生录取人数1998-2004年全国工程硕士招生录取人数
 

　　工程硕士：Master of Engineering

　　The diagram above clearly illustrates that dramatic elevation has occurred in the recruitment of Master of Engineering (ME) in the past seven years. According to the statistics given above, we may conclude that the recruitment of ME was on a steady rise from 1998 to 2004. In 1998, the number was at a low level, only about 2,500. Surprisingly, it reached to more than 35,000 in 2004 within no more than seven years。

　　Some driving factors that contribute to the above-mentioned changes may be summarized as follows. First and foremost, China has become particularly active in manufacturing, which leads to the increasing demand of qualified engineers. In addition, the development of job market on the whole cannot keep pace with the expansion of college graduates, which obliges a large number of students to stay on campus for another three years to get better prepared for their career. Last but not least, working pressure is another reason. Taking all these factors into account, we may predict that with speedy development of our society, the number of recruitment of ME will keep growing in the forthcoming decade。

　　On the other side of the coin, however, this tendency may bring about a good many problems, such as the waste of talent. It is necessary for us to take effective measures to ensure this situation doesn’t get out of hand, and encourage students to choose majors in which theoretical knowledge and practical skills will be demanded in the job market. (246 words)

　　上述图表清楚揭示了过去七年在工程硕士招生方面出现了急剧增长。根据上面给出的数据，我们可以得出结论：从1998到2004年，工程硕士招生稳步增长。在1998年，招生人数较少，只有大约2500人。令人惊讶的是，在不到七年中，到2004年招生人数达到35000多人。

　　促成上述变化的一些主要原因可以概括如下。*先，中国在制造业方面已经变得异常活跃，这导致了高素质工程师需求的增加。此外，就业市场的总体发展无法跟上大学毕业生的增加，这促使很多学生继续呆在校园里三年时间，为就业进行更好的准备。*后，工作压力是另外一个原因。考虑到所有这些因素，我们可以预计：随着社会的迅速发展，工程硕士的招生人数在不远的将来将会继续增加。

　　然而，在问题的另一方面，这种趋势可能带来很多问题，例如人才的浪费。我们必须采取有效措施确保这一状况不会失控，同时鼓励学生们选择那些在就业市场上所需要的既有理论知识又有实践技能的专业。

　　5.图画作文：两代关系

　　Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay. You should start your essay with a brief description of the picture and then express your views on the importance of self-dependence. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words. Write your essay on Answer Sheet 1.

　　精彩范文

　　The set of drawings above vividly depict the destiny of a flower in different circumstances. As is shown in the first cartoon, the flower is growing in full bloom in a comfortable greenhouse that shelters it from the threatening lightning and storm. On the contrary, when removed from the greenhouse and exposed to the driving rain, the flower soon fades and withers。

　　The delicate flower is naturally associated with young people, to be specific, the only children in our current society; the greenhouse epitomizes parents’ doting care and abundant material supplies that can shield the children from the storms, or the harsh reality. Once the young people begin to seek independence and accept challenges from the real world, they are found too spoiled to be strong enough in the face of difficulties。

　　Accordingly, it is vital for us to derive positive implications from these thought-provoking drawings. Only by undergoing more challenges and toils in adversity can young people cultivate strong personality and ability, and only in this way can they become winners in this competitive world。

　　参考译文

　　上述这组图生动描述了一朵鲜花在不同环境中的命运。如**幅漫画所示，这朵鲜花正在舒适的温室里充分绽放，温室保护它免于可怕的闪电和风雨。相反，当被搬出温室并暴露在风雨之下时，鲜花很快就凋谢枯萎了。

　　这朵娇弱的鲜花自然和我们的年轻人联系起来，具体而言，就是当代社会的*生子女。温室是保护孩子免受风雨的父母溺爱和优越物质条件的缩影，而风雨就是严峻的现实。一旦年轻人开始寻求*立并且接受来自现实世界的挑战，人们发现他们已经被惯坏了，在困难面前无法足够坚强。

　　总之，我们很有必要从这些发人深思的图画中得出积*的含义。只有经历更多的挑战和磨练，年轻人才能培养强大的个性和能力，而且只有这样他们才能成为这个竞争世界中的强者。

　　6.引语评论：信任

　　Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled On Maintaining Trust by commenting on the saying “It takes years to build trust, and a few seconds to destroy it。” You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words。

　　As an old saying goes¹, “It takes years to build trust, and a few seconds to destroy it。” Maintaining trust is the most important characteristic that a person requires to be successful in life. Only by consistently proving to be² honest can a person earn the precious trust of family members and business partners。

　　On the one hand, a parents’ relationship with his children must be based on trust and integrity. If a father promises many times to take his son to a football match and cancels every time, his son will naturally lose begin to lose faith in his father’s words. On the other hand, in the business world, people with no trust sooner or later earn the bad reputation they deserve. I have observed how destructive a person’s dishonesty has been to his chances for success, and how his relationships with other people are purely superficial, based only on self-interest。

　　Trust is a very valuable asset, which is easy to lose but hard to gain³. In the long run, an honest person will have earned the love and respect of the people closest to them, which, in my opinion, is the greatest measure of a successful life。

　　正如谚语所说，“建立信任需要很多年，但毁掉信任只需要几秒钟”。一个人若想人生有成，应具备的*重要的特征就是保持信任。一个人只有坚定不移地做到诚实，才能赢得家人和商业伙伴的宝贵信任。

　　一方面，父母和孩子的关系必须建立在信任与诚信的基础上。如果一位父亲多次许诺儿子会带他去看足球比赛，结果每次都取消计划，那么慢慢地，儿子自然就不再相信父亲说的话了。另一方面，在商界，没有诚信的人迟早会落个身败名裂。我目睹了一个人用欺骗毁掉了自己成功的机会，他与别人的关系统统是以个人利益为基础，因而纯粹是肤浅的。

　　信任是一份十分珍贵的财富，失去容易获得难。从长远看，一个诚实的人将赢得周围人的爱戴和尊敬。在我看来，这就是衡量成功人生的*重要的尺度。

　　7. 引语评论：习惯

　　Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the remark “Good habits result from resisting temptation。” You can cite examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words。

　　There is a saying that “Good habits result from resisting temptation”， to which I can’t agree more. Unfortunately, lack of determined will¹ and social experience, teenagers frequently fall into the traps of temptations such as Internet games, smoking, drinking, and so on。

　　In a bid to form good habits, one needs a strong will and perseverance to resist temptation. Numerous examples can be given but these will suffice. The outstanding habit of reading classic literature on a regular basis² is a case in point. Nevertheless, you would definitely have to spend less time on your favorite Internet games or fascinating mobile phones. Likewise, the good habit of doing exercises every day means repeatedly dragging oneself away from the TV series and cozy couch. These cases effectively clarify that good habits arises from resisting temptation。

　　As has been mentioned above³, a wise mind and determined will should be gradually cultivated so that the adolescents can resist various bad temptations and form excellent habits. Just as Oscar Wilde, an esteemed British novelist put it, “I can resist everything except temptation。”

　　有句话说“好的习惯来自于抵制诱惑”，我非常同意。不幸的是，年轻人缺乏坚定的意志和社会经验，总是陷入网络游戏、吸烟、喝酒等诱惑的陷阱。

　　为了养成良好的习惯，人们需要坚定的意志和坚持不懈来抵制诱惑。可以给出无数的例子，但下面这些例子足矣。经常阅读文学经典的优秀习惯就是其中之一。然而，你必须在心爱的网络游戏或诱人的手机上花费更少的时间。同样，每天进行锻炼的良好习惯意味着日复一日强迫自己远离电视剧和舒适的沙发。这些例子清楚证明了好的习惯源于抵制诱惑。

　　综上所述，我们年轻人应该逐渐培养明智的心态和坚定的意志，以便抵制各种各样不好的诱惑并形成良好的习惯。正如著名的英国作家奥斯卡王尔德所说：“除了诱惑，我都能抵制。”

　　8.引语评论：幸福

　　Directions: For this part you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on happiness by referring to the saying “Happiness is not the absence of problems, but the ability to deal with them。” You can cite examples to illustrate your point and then explain how you can develop your ability to deal with problems and be happy. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words。

　　As an old saying goes, “Happiness is not the absence of problems, but the ability to deal with them。” Why is difficult to define, or rather discover and achieve happiness? I maintain the major determinant lies in a person’s attitudes。

　　There is little correlation¹ between the circumstance of people’s lives and how happy they are. Instead, happiness lies in the struggle to be happy. To demonstrate, people sometimes go to extremes², and frantically pursue money, power, high social status, and so on, which are all symbols of success—but never of happiness. Perhaps if they shifted their life’s goal from ultimate success to unswerving efforts and to a confidence that they will be successful one day they would be a great deal happier。

　　Besides defining it, how do I achieve happiness? There is little doubt that³ various people have diverse ways of going about this task. As for me, the most significant secret is realizing that happiness is a by-product of something else. The most obvious sources are those pursuits that give our lives a purpose. These can be anything from playing tennis to studying insects. The more passions we have, the more happiness we are likely to experience。

　　正如谚语所说：“幸福并非没有问题，而在于解决问题的能力”。为何很难定义、发现和获得幸福？我认为*重要的因素在于人们的态度。

　　人们的生活环境和他们多么幸福之间没什么关系。相反，幸福在于获取幸福的奋斗之中。例如，人们有时候会走*端，疯狂追求金钱、权利、很高的社会地位等等。这些都是成功的象征，但并非幸福的象征。也许如果他们把人生目标从终*成功转向未来他们必将成功的自信，他们将会更加幸福。

　　除了定义幸福之外，我如何来获取幸福？毫无疑问不同的人对于实现这一目标有着迥然不同的方式。对我而言，*大的秘密就是认识到幸福只是其他事情的一种副产品。*明显的来源就是给予我们目标的那些追求。这些追求可以使从打网球到研究昆虫的任何事情。我们越有激情，我们越有可能感受到幸福。
