How to Deal with Cheating?
Many students tend to cheat in the exams.Some will copy the answers from their books.Some will talk with each other to share the right answers.Besides, some even write down the information on their skin.There are several causes leading to cheating.Some students want to get high scores without efforts.Secondly, some are under great pressure and they fear to fail the exams.Once the students are found cheating, the teachers should punish them severely and explain the harm of cheating to them.There are at least two ways to eliminate cheating.On the one hand, we should explain the harm of cheating to our students.On the other hand, strict measures should be taken against cheating.As a result, the fair play in the exams can be achieved and students can pay attention to study instead of cheating.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic Heated Match, Fair Play.You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:

Heated Match, Fair Play
Dear fellow students,Good evening.Here comes the coverage of the final basketball match of our school league.The match was held in the school stadium in the morning.One team was from the English Department, and the other from the Maths Department.The game began at 8:30.All the players brought their potential into full play.Both teams took the lead by turns.The biggest margin was less than ten points.It was really the closest game I have ever watched.When there was 5 seconds left, the team from the English Department lagged narrowly behind by two points.At the last second, Li Qiang scored a three pointer and put the English team in lead by one point.The audience burst into thunderous applause and cheers.At last, the English team screwed a 7574 win over the Maths team.All of the players on both teams played marvelously, with the leading scorer Li Qiang.He scored 26 points, 10 of them in the decisive final quarter.Besides, he also snatched 9 rebounds.No wonder he was elected the MVP of the game.That’s the exciting report on the game.Thank you.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic A Letter to the University President about the Goods Promotion on Campus.You should write at least 120 words, and base your composition on the outline given below in Chinese:

A Letter to the University President
about the Goods Promotion on Campus April 21, 2006
Dear Mr.President,Nowadays the goods promotion on campus is on the rise.When you are taking a nap on the dormitory, you will be disturbed by knocks on the door by a salesman.Most of those goods promoted are of poor quality.Worse still, this poses a potential danger on the security of the dormitory.Why is the goods promotion so pervasive on campus? Firstly, many salesmen believe that college students are naive and can be easily deceived.Secondly, a number of students, especially the freshmen, are in great need of various necessities at the beginning of each semester.Thirdly, some students want to take part-time jobs and earn some money.As for this kind of phenomenon, I’d like to put forward some suggestions.On the one hand, those professional salesmen should not be allowed to enter the dormitory to promote their goods.On the other hand, no promotion activity should be allowed during noon break.I hope in this way our campus life will be left undisturbed.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic A Letter of Application for a School Loan.You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:

College Graduates Work as Village Officials
Nowadays many college graduates choose to work as village officials in the remote areas.To this, people’s attitudes differ sharply.Some hold the positive view while others are against it.As far as I am concerned, I believe that it is a wise choice.Above all, college graduates can contribute a lot to the development of the countryside.First, they can apply their professional knowledge there.Secondly, they can introduce new concepts to the countryside and speed the development of rural culture.As a result, the gap between the city and the countryside can well be bridged.In addition, these graduates can benefit a lot from working as village officials.While too many college graduates are fighting for the handful of positions in big cities, these graduates can find themselves a wider stage of development and realize their value.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: How to Keep Psychologically Healthy.You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:

On a Harmonious Dormitory Life
Dormitory life is an indispensable part of college life.But sometimes the harmony in the dormitory will be disturbed in one way or another.For example, some members listen to music late into the night and make those light sleepers restless.Worse still, the smell of some students socks is powerful enough to drive other members out of the room.As is known to all, a harmonious dormitory life is important to college students and benefits all the members.On one hand, we can have a good rest and put our heart into study.On the other hand, we will have a good mood and enjoy being together.In contrast, an unharmonious life will be depressing and counterproductive.There are several ways to create and maintain a harmonious dormitory life.Firstly, you have to evaluate your life style and try to get rid of your dirty habits, if there are any.Secondly, when an annoying situation arises, you’ll just have to learn to tolerate each other and coexist.Thirdly, you’ll have to share with each other and make good friends.In conclusion, we should try our best to build a harmonious dormitory life for the purpose of good study and good life.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic How to Deal with Sub health.You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:

Study under a Work study Program
Nowadays more and more college students are taking part time jobs as they have more time at their disposal.Some are eager to gain experience and improve their practical skills.Others want to earn some money and relieve the financial burden on their families.But every coin has two sides.On the one hand, part time jobs do much good for us.We can develop our skills and improve our material life as well.On the other hand, we may not be able to put our heart into study in the “gold rush”.Worse still, those who fail to resist the temptation from society will take a wrong road, and even end up in prison.In conclusion, the outcome of study under a work study program depends on how we handle it.We should allot plenty of time to our study, keeping in mind that study should have priority over anything else for us college students, and money is not our purpose but a means to provide us with comfort.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic A Job searching Experience.You should write at least 120 words, and base your composition on the outline given below in Chinese:

A Job searching Experience
Last Friday my English teacher told me that one of her friends was looking for an English governess.I asked for her friend name and phone number and determined to seize the chance.I was a little bit nervous when I went to the woman house.I was told that the talk between us that day would decide whether I could take the job.However, when the woman, Lucy as she was called, welcomed me into her house, I felt much relaxed.I thought as long as I was sincere and friendly I would perform well.The conversation went on smoothly.She seemed much more interested in my habits and hobbies than how good I was at English.Then it seemed that I did the most talking that day.I told her about my family and school life.Obviously I succeeded and from then on I went to teach her English every weekend.Lucy told me later that it was my sincerity that makes her willingly accept me.It is true that there are many tips while seeking for a job, but remember to be sincere.It’s the secret of my success.7

employment opportunities.On the other hand, English which is the language of internet provides us a fast way to get information.Ultimately, it enables us to make friends with people from all over the world.There are diverse reasons to explain my argument.For one thing, not only does English brings us various kinds of job opportunities, but also English is a fast way to get information.For another, when a person is speaking English, his or her pronunciation sounds attractive.Las but not least, it is obvious that English enables us to improve the quality of our life and job in diverse aspects.In summary, the significance of English, as never before, should not be neglected.Consequently, it is high time that we began to study English.Only in this way, can we meet the requirements of modern society.In conclusion, the importance of English should not be overlooked.Thus, it is essential/advisable that we should pay much attention to English learning.Moreover, not only do we need to study reading English, but also we need to learn spoken English.In modern society, countryside dwellers and city residents hold different points of view to tradition.Some think of it positively, especially the aged.In their opinion, tradition contains various beneficial elements and enables us to get unexpected experience which is very useful in our life and jobs.It is estimated by the mass media that around 80% of the aged believe that tradition should not be given up.Advantage(2)
Nowadays, there is a heated discussion on whether tradition should be given up.Quite a lot of countryside residents and city dwellers, especially the old, claim that tradition should be reserved.They support their argument from the following aspects.Tradition has been accepted by our ancestors for thousands of years because it is constructive to our history.For instance, tradition tells people to be polite to friends and relatives.It is said that 78% of the old people believe that tradition should not be given up.Disadvantages
Although the above point of view sounds reasonable, others think of it negatively.They claim that tradition has nothing to do with modern society.What is more, tradition slows down the progress of our economy and science to a great extent.Although its negative impact can not be clearly sensed by ordinary people, it usually leads to serious consequence in the end.On the contrary, a great many people, especially the teenagers in high schools and college students believe that tradition should be forgotten completely.And they firmly think that modern ideas are 100% better than old traditions.For example, American culture and miscellaneous creative working modes are improving the quality of our life and job.It is believed that almost three quarters of youngsters in our country appreciate new life mode rather than old tradition.As far as I am concerned, I suppose that tradition brings us both advantages and disadvantages.As a result, it is suggested that we should deal with it according to different situations.Only in this way, can we make a right decision, which is helpful to our achievements.In my opinion, judging tradition from just one aspect is not completely right because every coin has two sides.But most modern ideas are better than the old tradition.For instance, men and women should be equal.Thus, it is right for us to open our mind and get more new ideas.正面因素
sth.enables us to make friends with people from all over the world.Sth.can largely improve the quality of our life and jobs in diverse aspects.Sth.contains various beneficial elements and enables us to get unexpected experience which is very useful in our life and job.反面因素
Had people paid more attention to the above issue before, the present situation would not be so serious.If its negative impact can not be dealt with timely, the result is sometimes disastrous and destroying.Although its negative impact can not be clearly sensed by ordinary people, it usually leads to serious consequence in the end.

參考譯文: China is a time-honored multi-ethnics nation with a vast territory and abundant resources, and every ethnic group has its unique abundant dishes.Regional cuisines have taken shape after long-history evolution under the influence of geographical environment, climate, cultural tradition, folk customs and other factors.The most influential and representative ones are Lu, Chuan,Yue, Min, Su,Zhe, Xiang and Hui Cuisines, which are commonly known as “Eight Major Cuisines”.Dishes in the “Eight Major Cuisines” in China are characterized by diversified cooking skills, with each having its strong points.5.四合院
四合院是從明代的北京延續(xù)下來的古典建筑風(fēng)格的住宅。四合 院之間的狹窄的街道被稱為 “胡同”。一個(gè)四合院有園林包圍著四個(gè)房子,有高高的圍墻保護(hù)。四合院與胡同都是人們 常見到的,有超 過 700 多年的歷史,但是由于現(xiàn)在的城市改造和中國經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展,四合院 慢慢地從北京消失。

說到筷子(chopsticks)的起源,中國是世界上第一個(gè)使用筷子的 國家,用筷子吃飯已經(jīng)有至 少 3000 年的歷史了。筷子看起來很簡單,只有兩根小細(xì)棒,但它有很多功能,比如挑選,移動(dòng),夾,攪拌或 者挖。此外,它便于使用,價(jià)格便宜。而且筷子也是世界上獨(dú)有的 餐具(tableware)。使用筷子的人,無論是中國人還是外國人,都無不欽佩筷子的發(fā)明者。
As the origin of chopsticks, China is the first country in the world to use chopsticks and has a history of at least 3,000 years to have meals with chopsticks.Chopsticks seems quite simple with only two small and thin sticks, but it is in possession of many functions, such as picking, moving, nipping, mixing and digging;moreover,it is convenient for use and cheap in price.Besides, chopsticks are also unique tableware in the world.Anyone using chopsticks,no matter Chinese or foreigners, would without exception admire the inventor of chopsticks.9.扇子
中國扇子的歷史可以追溯到 3000 多年前的商朝(the Shang Dynasty)。第一種扇子叫作 “扇汗”(Shanhan),是拴在馬車上用來 擋住強(qiáng)烈的陽光,給乘客遮雨的。“扇汗”有點(diǎn)像現(xiàn)在的雨傘。后來 “扇汗”變成了由薄但是結(jié)實(shí)的絲綢或者鳥的羽毛做成的長柄扇,稱為中山扇(Zhangshan fan),它主要用于皇帝的儀仗(honour guard)裝飾。
參考譯文: The history of Chinese fan can be dated to over 3,000 years ago,around the Shang Dynasty.The first type of fan, known as Shanhan, was tied to a horse-drawn carriage to shut out the strong sunshine and shelter the passengers from the rainfall.The Shanhan was a bit like today’s umbrella.Later this Shanhan became a long-handled fan made of thin and tough silk or birds5 feathers, called a Zhangshan fan, which was mainly used by the emperor’s honour guard as decoration.10.中國茶
中國是茶的故鄉(xiāng)。據(jù)說早在五六千年前,中國就有了茶樹(tea-shrub),而且有關(guān)茶樹的人類 文明可以追溯到兩千年前。來自中國的茶和絲綢、瓷器(porcelain)—樣,在 1000 年前為世界所知,而且一直是中國重要的出口產(chǎn)品。目前世界上 40 多個(gè)國家種植茶,其中亞 洲國家的產(chǎn)量占世界總產(chǎn)量的 90%。其他國家的茶樹都直接或間接地起源于中國。

絲綢之路(the Silk Road)是歷史上連接中國和地中海的一條重要 貿(mào)易路線。因?yàn)檫@條路上的 絲綢貿(mào)易占絕大部分,所以在 1877 年它 被德國的一位地理學(xué)家命名為“絲綢之路”。這條 古道從長安開始,經(jīng)過河西走廊(the Hexi Corridor),到達(dá)敦煌后分成三條:南部路線,中部 路線和北部路線。這三條路遍布新疆維吾爾自治區(qū)(Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region),然后擴(kuò)展到巴基斯坦(Pakistan),印度,甚至羅馬。
參考譯文: The Silk Road is a historically important international trade route between China and the Mediterranean.Because silk comprised a large proportion of trade along this road, in 1877, it was named the Silk Road by an eminent German geographer.This ancient road begins at Chang’an, then by way of the Hexi Corridor,and it reaches Dunhuang, where it divides into three, the Southern Route,Central Route and Northern Route.The three routes spread all over the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, and then they extend as far as Pakistan, India and even Rome.12.經(jīng)濟(jì)水平多樣化的中國
中國是一個(gè)文化、語言、風(fēng)俗和經(jīng)濟(jì)水平都很多樣化的地方。經(jīng)濟(jì)格局尤其多樣化。大城市如北京,廣州和上海是現(xiàn)代的,相對富裕的。然而,約 50%的中國人仍然生活在農(nóng)村地區(qū),盡管中國只有 10%的土地是可耕地(arable land)。數(shù)百萬農(nóng)村居民仍然依靠體力勞動(dòng)或役畜(draft animal)耕作。兩三百萬農(nóng)民遷到城鎮(zhèn)尋找工作。一般來說,南部和東部沿海地區(qū)比內(nèi)陸地區(qū)更富有,西部和北部,以及西南部是非常不發(fā)達(dá)的地區(qū)。參考譯文: China is a very diverse place with large variations in culture, language, customs and economic levels.The economic landscape is particularly diverse.The major cities such as Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai are moden and comparatively wealthy.However, about 50% of Chinese still live in rural areas even though only 10% of China ’s land is arable.Hundreds of millions of rural residents still farm with manual labour or draft animals.Some 200 to 300 million former peasants migrated to townships and cities in search of work.Generally the southern and eastern coastal regions are wealthier while inland areas, the far west and north, and the southwest are much less developed.13.中國對外貿(mào)易
對于世界上很多國家來說,中國正迅速成為他們最重要的雙邊(bilateral)貿(mào)易伙伴。然而,中國和世界其他國家之間貿(mào)易不平衡的問題已經(jīng)引發(fā)了關(guān)注。尤其是美國對中國的貿(mào)易赤字是最大的,達(dá)到了 3150 億美元,這個(gè)數(shù)字是十年前的三倍還多。貿(mào)易糾紛(trade dispute)也越來越多,主要是關(guān)于傾銷(dumping)、知識(shí)產(chǎn)權(quán)和人民幣的估價(jià)。
參考譯文: For many countries around the world, China is rapidly becoming their most important bilateral trade partner.However,there have been concerns over large trade imbalances between China and the rest of the world.The US in particular has the largest trade deficit in the world with China at $315 billion, more than three times what it was a decade ago.There have also been a growing number of trade disputes brought against, mainly for dumping, intellectual property and the valuation of the yuan.14.中國的假日
中國人民依法享受超過 115 天的假期,其中包括 104 天的周末和 11 天的節(jié)假日。中國一 年中有 7個(gè)法定假日,包括元旦(New Year’s Day),春節(jié)(Spring Festival),清明節(jié)(Qingming Festival), 五一勞動(dòng)節(jié)(May Day),端午節(jié)(Dragon Boat Festival),中秋節(jié)(Mid-Autumn Day)和國慶節(jié)(National Day)。員工有 5 至 15 天的帶薪年假。學(xué)生和老師有大約三個(gè)月的寒暑假。在中國,暑假一般約在 7 月 1 日開始,8 月 31 日左右結(jié)束,寒假是根據(jù)春節(jié)的日期,通常是在 1 月或 2 月
參考譯文: Chinese people legally enjoy over 115 days off including 104 days of weekends and 11 days of festivals.China has seven legal holidays in a year,including New Year’s Day, Spring Festival, Qingming Festival, May Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Day and National Day.Employees have 5 to 15 days of paid annual leave.Students and teachers have summer and winter vacations for about three months.The summer vacation in China generally starts around July 1st and ends around August 31st,and the winter vacation usually falls on January or February according to the date of the Spring Festival.15.信用卡
信用卡(credit card)是銀行所創(chuàng)造出來的最便捷同時(shí)也是最危險(xiǎn) 的信用工具。通過信用卡,人們可以先用銀行付賬的方式購買那些 負(fù)擔(dān)不起的物品,同時(shí),銀行也將對此征收比 一般貸款要高的利率(interest rate)。遺憾的是,信用卡現(xiàn)巳成為資本主義體制(capitalist system)的重要組成部分,而該體制就得依賴消費(fèi)(consumption)的持續(xù)增長。
Credit cards are one of the most convenient devices ever created by the banking system but, at the same time, one of the most dangerous.They allow people to buy things they,otherwise, couldn’t afford,with money created by the banks and, charged out at much higher interest rates than normal loans.Unfortunately, credit cards have become an essential part of the capitalist system which only survives on the continued growth in consumption.參考譯文: 16.老齡化
根據(jù)全國老齡工作委員會(huì)(the China National Committee On Aging)的數(shù)據(jù)來看,到 2053 年,中國 60 歲及以上的老人數(shù)量預(yù)計(jì) 會(huì)從目前的 1.85 億一躍變?yōu)?4.87 億,或者說是占總?cè)丝?的 35%。擴(kuò)張的比例是由于壽命的增加和計(jì)劃生育政策(family planning policies)限制大部分城市家庭只生一個(gè)孩子。快速老齡化對社會(huì)和經(jīng)濟(jì)穩(wěn)定 造成了嚴(yán)重威脅。
參考譯文:The number of people aged 60 and above in China is expected to jump from the current 185 million to 487 million, or 35 percent of the population, by 2053,according to figures from the China National Committee On Aging.The expanding ratio is due both an increase in life expectancy and by family planning policies that limit most urban families to a single child.Rapid aging poses serious threats to the country’s social and economic stability.17.中國經(jīng)濟(jì)
自從 1978 年經(jīng)濟(jì)改革以來,中國已經(jīng)完成了從中央計(jì)劃經(jīng)濟(jì)(centrally planned economy)向 市場經(jīng)濟(jì)(market based economy)的轉(zhuǎn)變。超過 6 億人已經(jīng)脫離了貧困,但是仍然有超過 1.7 億人生活在 國際貧困線以下,每天少于 1.25 美元。2012 年,中國的人均 GDP 為 12405.67 美 元,這是 30 年前的 37 倍。到 2018 年,中國的人均 GDP 將從世界第 90 位上升到第 75 位。然而,這仍然是低于預(yù)計(jì)的世界平均水平。
參考譯文: Since initiating market reforms in 1978,China has shifted from a centrally planned to a market based economy.More than 600 million citizens have been lifted out of poverty, but over 170 million people still live below the $1.25-a-day international poverty line.In 2012, China’s GDP(PPP)per capita was $12,405.67.This is 37 times higher than what it was just 30 years ago.By 2018,China’ s GDP per capita will climb from the 90th to 75th highest in the world.This however will still be below the forecasted world average.18.中國的保健食品
中國的保健食品(health food)市場首次出現(xiàn)于 20 世紀(jì) 80 年代。保健食品是指具有特定保 健功能或補(bǔ)充維生素或礦物質(zhì)的食品。保 健食品適用于特定人群消費(fèi),具有調(diào)節(jié)人體功能 的效果,但不用于治療疾病的目的。保健食品有兩種。一種是具有特定保健功能的食品,另外一種是營養(yǎng)補(bǔ)充劑。
China’s health food market first emerged in the 1980s.Health food refers to food products which claim to have specific health functions or supplement one’s vitamins or minerals.Health food is suitable for the consumption by specific groups of people and has the effect of regulating human body functions, but is not used for the purpose of treating diseases.There are two kinds of health food.One is food with specific health functions, the other is nutritional supplements.19.成年子女必須探望父母的法律
這周頒布的一項(xiàng)新法律要求子女必須經(jīng)常探望年齡超過 60 歲的 父母,并確保他們經(jīng)濟(jì)和精 神上的需求得到滿足。星期二,新華社 報(bào)導(dǎo)了_條新聞,來自江蘇市無錫市的一位 77 歲的老太太起訴她的女兒忽略她。這是新法律生效后的第一起案件,當(dāng)?shù)胤ㄔ阂?guī)定她的女兒至少每月探望母親兩次,并提供財(cái)力支持。但是這項(xiàng)法律引發(fā)了爭議。有人說這給了那些因?yàn)楣ぷ鳌W(xué)習(xí)或者其他原因搬離家鄉(xiāng)的人更多壓力。參考譯文: A new national law introduced this week requires the offspring of parents older than 60 to visit their parents “frequently” and make sure their financial and spiritual needs are met.On Tuesday, Xinhua reported a news that a 77-year-old woman from Jiangsu city of Wuxi sued her daughter for neglecting her.In the first case after the new law came into effect, the local court ruled that her daughter must visit her at least twice a month and provide financial support.But the law’s introduction has proved controversial.Some say it puts too much pressure on those who move away from home for work, study or other opportunities.20.中國游客出境游
聯(lián)合國下屬機(jī)構(gòu)世界旅游組織(World Tourism Organization)公布的數(shù)據(jù)顯示,中國游客對全 球旅游業(yè)的貢獻(xiàn)最大。中國人去年花 在出境游上的支出膨脹至 1020 億美元,同 2011 年相 比增長了 40%。聯(lián)合國世界旅游組織在其網(wǎng)站上發(fā)布的一份聲明中說,這一增幅令 中國 迅速超越德國和美國。后兩者在之前是出境游支出最高的兩個(gè) 國家。2012 年德美兩國出境 旅游支出均同比增長 6%,約 840 億美元。參考譯文: The figures from the United Nations World Tourism Organization show that Chinese travelers are making the most contributions to the global tourism industry.Chinese travelers spent a record $102 billion on outbound tourism last year, a 40% rise from 2011.That surge sent China screaming past Germany and the U.S.— the former No.1 and No.2 spenders, respectively 一 which both saw tourist outlays increase 6% year-on-year to around $84 billion in 2012, the UNWTO said in a statement on its website.21.大學(xué)生就業(yè)問題
2008 全球經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退導(dǎo)致中國的新畢業(yè)生的就業(yè)市場顯著下降。2009 年畢業(yè)的學(xué)生將加入到 2008 年畢業(yè)仍在找工作的 300 萬學(xué)生之中。畢業(yè)生過剩(glut)也可以歸因于大學(xué)入學(xué)率的提高和教育機(jī)構(gòu)的增加。雖然大學(xué)的學(xué)生人數(shù)增加了,但是他們的質(zhì)量并沒有明顯地提高。在大多數(shù)情況下,畢業(yè)生無法在 2008 年找到合適的就業(yè)機(jī) 會(huì)是因?yàn)樗麄儧]有行業(yè)所需的技能。
The 2008 global recession resulted in a significant drop in the job market for China’s new graduates.Students graduating in 2009 will join around three million students who graduated in 2008 and are still seeking job opportunities.The graduate glut can also be attributed to a rise in the number of college enrollments and educational institutions.Although the number of college students has increased, there has not been any significant improvement in their quality.In most cases, graduates were unable to find suitable employment in 2008 because they did not have the skills required by the industry.
