Establish a purpose for reading. If a thorough understanding is the purpose, how would you read the following text? If you are to have a good but not detailed understanding of the text? If you just need to know what the text is about in general?Does Travel Broaden the Mind?One often hears it said that travel broadens the mind: if you stay in your own country the whole time, your ideas remain narrow, whereas if you travel, you see new customs, eat new foods, do new things, and come back home with a broader mind.But does this always–or even usually–happen? An acquaintance of mine who lives in England and had never been outside it until last summer decided to go over to France for a trip. When he returned, I asked him how he liked it. “Terrible,” was his answer. “I couldn’t get a nice cup of tea anywhere. Thank goodness I’m back.” I asked him whether he hadn’t had any good food while he was there. “Oh, the dinners were all right,” he said. “I found a little place where they made quite good fish and ch ips. Not as good as ours, mind you, but they were passable. But the breakfasts were terrible: no bacon or kippers or haddocks. I had fried eggs and chips, but it was quite a business getting them to make them. They expected me to eat rolls. And when I asked for marmalade, they brought strawberry jam. And do you know, they insisted that it was marmalade? The trouble is they don’t know English.”I thought it useless to explain that we borrowed the word “marmalade” from French, and that it means, in that l anguage, any kind of jam. So I said, “But didn’t you eat any of the famous French food?” “What? Me?” he said. “Of course not! Give me good old English food every time! None of these fancy bits for me!” Obviously travel had not broadened his mind. He had gone to France determined to live there exactly as if he was in England, and had judged it entirely from his own English viewpoint.This does not, of course, happen only to Englishmen in France: all nationalities, in all foreign countries, can be found judging what they see, hear, taste and smell according to their own habits and customs. People who are better educated and who have read a lot about foreign countries tend to be more adaptable and tolerant, but this is because their minds have already been broadened BEFORE they start travelling. In fact, it is easier to be broad-minded about foreign habits and customs if one’s acquaintance with these things is limited to books and films. The American smiles tolerantly over the absence of central heating in most English homes when he is himself comfortably seated in his arm-chair in his centrally heated house in Chicago; the Englishman reads about the sanitary arrangements in a certain tropical country, and the inhabitants of the latter read about London fogs, and each side manages to be detached and broad-minded. But actual physical contact with things one is unaccustomed to is much more difficult to bear philosophically.Physical differences are not so difficult to adapt oneself to as religious, ethical and irrational ones. Indonesians are trained from earliest childhood to give and receive things with the right hand only: the left hand is considered unclean. When a foreigner offers an Indonesian something with his left hand, or holds out his left hand to take something he is being offered, the Indonesian may explain this action rationally as arising from a difference in custom, but the deep prejudice against the use of the left hand which was instilled in him during his most impressionable years will not be so easily satisfied.There are some travelers who adapt themselves so successfully to foreign customs and habits that they incur the severe criticisms of their less adaptable fellow-countrymen. If they are Asians, they are accused of having become “Westernized”, and if they are Europeans, people say they have “gone native”. Which is better, rigid, self-satisfied prejudice against things foreign (the idea “Thank God I am not as others are!”), or loss of your certainty that your own country’s habits and customs are the only right ones, and hence the inability to be one of a herd any longer?Perhaps the ideal would be if travel could succeed in making people tolerant of the habits and customs of others without abandoning their own, the criterion for judging a foreigner could be: Does he try to be polite and considerate to others? instead of: Is he like me?1.Write the main idea of the text.2.Read the text again and see how each part of the text is connected to another. Forexample, in what way are paragraph 1 and 2 connected? What is the relationship between paragraph 3 and 4? And 4 and 5?3.Write an outline of the textplete the following sentences by ticking the best alternative.(1)The writer’s acquaintance did not quite enjoy his trip to France becauseA.the food there was terrible.B.he could not get the English marmalade.C.he disliked the French breakfast.D.his way of looking at things was entirely English.(2)People who are better educatedA.might show more understanding about foreign customs and habits.B.know a lot about foreign habits and customs.C.can easily adapt themselves to new customs and habits.D.All of the above.(3)The example of the Indonesian is used to illustrate the point thatA.the Indonesians are very particular with the use of hands.B.physical differences are more difficult to bear than the religious, ethicaland irrational ones.C.it is important to remember the different customs and habits.D.physical differences are not so difficult to adapt oneself to as religious,ethical, and irrational ones.(4)According to the criterion for judging a foreigner suggested by the writer, aforeigner is a friend if heA.can support our views.B. can accept our customs and habits without criticisms.C. can just live like one of us.D. is polite and thoughtful.5.Questions·What point does the sentence “The American smiles tolerantly…manages to be detached and broad-minded.” (line s 7-11, Para. 4) illustrate?·Paraphrase “…the Indonesian may explain this action rationally…not be so easily satisfied” (line s 5-7, Para. 5).·What is the author trying to prove? Do you agree with the author? Does the author adequately defend his/her argument? What kind of proof does he/she use? Is there something he/she leaves out that you would put in?。
96 TEM4SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN]Write on ANSWER SHEET ONE a composition of about 150 words on the following topic: Every college student would agree that life in college is not the same as it was in the middle school. Now, you have been asked by the Students' Union to write a passage entitled:THE MAIN DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MY COLLEGE LIFE AND MY MIDDLE SCHOOL LIFE as part of an introduction programme for new students coining in September.You are to write in three paragraphs.In the first paragraph, state clearly what you think the main difference between college and middle school life.In the second paragraph, state which life you prefer and why.In the last paragraph, bring what you have, written to a natural conclusion with a summary or suggestion.Marks will be awarded far content, organization, grammar and appropriacy. Failure to follow the instructions may result in a loss of marks.参考样文The Main Difference Between My College Life and My Middle School LifeAs every college student would agree,life in college is different from that in middle sch001.In my opinion.the main difference lies in the fact that we enjoy more independence at college.As far as I‟m concerned,I prefer the college life to the middle school life.For one thing,I live on my own:wash my own clothes,buy my own food,looking myself.I make my daily decisions of my own will.For another,I depend heavily on myself in my study.I have plenty of free time outside the classroom.In order to achieve academic success,I can derive as much from the teachers‟ lectures as from my own diligence.In the absence of pressure from both the college and the family,I must have a workableplan of my own.To sum up,I live a quite different life at college from that in my middle school in that I am much more responsible for my own life and study.To those newcomers,1 would suggest they break away from their parents‟ tender care and stand on their own feet.97 TEM4SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN]Write a composition of about 150 words on the following topic:Some of your classmates think that more pressure from academic studies is not beneficial to students. You either agree or disagree with them.MORE PRESSURE FROM ACADEMIC STUDIES DOES (OR DOES NO) GOOD TO USYou are to write in three paragraphs.In the first paragraph state clearly what your view is.In the second paragraph, support your view with details.In the last paragraph, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion with a summary or suggestion.Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriacy. Failure to follow the instructions may result in a loss of marks.参考样文More Pressure From Academic Studies Does No Good to Us It is believed one of the main problems with today's education is that too much emphasis is placed on test scores. It has become the most important criterion for college enrollment. A student, however creative and intelligent, will not be admitted into a college, for assignment or in employment competitions if his/her test scores are not high enough. Therefore, students are faced with more and more pressure from academic studies. In my opinion, this is harmful for students' overall development.First, the competition for high scores among students becomes intense. Students find themselves concentrating more on strategies to achieve high scores than on acquiring the knowledge. They will play truant of some subsidiary courses, skip over the substance which will not be tested on. Second, teachers are apt to give their students high scores. As their job is judged mainly by students' performance in terms of scores, some teachers tend to set easy papers to test their students on or narrow down the scope of the exam, even give them the hints to exams, or favor their students with high scores.In fact, times are different. The criteria for good college students are changing now. It is tree that good marks continue to be some students' dream, yet there are a growing number of students who are concerned much more about things other than academic achievement. Job market demands personnel with both intelligent and non-intelligent qualities. Therefore, students today should be better prepared for challenges and competition upon graduation.98 TEM4SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN]It is now generally accepted that vehicles (cars, trucks, etc.) are a major source of air pollution in cities. You are to suggest only ONE way to solve the problem.Write on ANSWER SHEET ONE a composition of about 150 words on the following topic:ONE WAY TO SOLVE THE PROBLEMYou are to write in three paragraphs.In the first paragraph, state what your suggested way is.In the second paragraph, state one or two advantages of your suggestion.In the last paragraph, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion.Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriacy. Failure to follow the instructions may result in a loss of marks.One Way to Solve the ProblemToo many vehicles, such as cars, tracks, motorcycles, have created a lot of serious problems in our world. Besides congestion, accidents and fast fuel consumption, they are responsible for a good part of air pollution in big dries. All the time, the vehicles are pumping huge amounts of waste gases into the atmosphere. These gases are harmful, causing disease and even death.One possible solution that may reduce air pollution created by so many vehicles is to develop modem public transportation systems and restrict the use of private cars. If the price of petrol rises constantly and the public vehicles are efficient and convenient enough, most people will not have private cars. And the total number of cars in big cities will reduce greatly. People would find more room to walk, to jog, to perform what they used to do in the open air. Moreover, dirt, noise exhaust, parked cars, and smog would decrease greatly.There is no inherent incompatibility between man in an urban setting and the automobile. But we don't want cars to seize our living space. We take for granted that everyone could enjoy thepleasure of stretching his legs freely, breathing and sniffing the air cheerfully. On the whole, the elimination of air pollution needs the co-efforts from the government, the public and the environments.1999 TEM4 SECTION A COMPOSITIONWe see advertisements on television every day.

Some people believe that advertising on television can bring us benefits, but others don‟t think so. In my opinion, I am in favor of the advertising on television.There are two reasons, I think, for the growing number of advertisement on TV. First, in a competitive economy, the consumer usually has the choice of several different brands of the same product. Thus, manufacturers are confronted with a problem—How to keep sales high enough to stay in business. They solve this problem by advertising. Through advertising, each manufacturing company tries to convince consumers that its product is special. Second, most consumers are interested in advertisement. They wish to get from TV advertisement thefirst hand information about new products, which enables them to choose the one they like best. As a result, there is a sharp increase in advertisement on the TV screen.In conclusion, TV advertising plays a very important role in our economic behavior. With abundant information available on TV, we can make sensible choices as consumers.2000 TEM4SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN]Write on ANSWER SHEET ONE a composition of about 150 words on the following topic: College life should be varied and colourful. And extracurricular activities are an important aspectof it. However, at present, there is much room for improvement in this regard. Write an article to the university radio entitled:The Importance of Extracurricular Activities In the first part of your article you should clearly present your view, and in the second part you should support your opinion with appropriate details. In the last part you should bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or summary.Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriacy. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.The Importance of Extracurricular ActivitiesDear Editor,People have different ideas about how students should spend their school days. Some believe that students should spend the whole day on academic studies. Others believe that extracurricular activities should be a required part of every school day. I think both ways have their advantages. But I prefer the latter.As a student, our main task is to concentrate on our academic study. We have to attend classes, reading books and doing assignments. Only by working hard can we learn our courses well. But I don‟t think we should spend every hour and minute on academic study. A proverb says, “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.” Without good health and strong body, how can we improve our study efficiency and make great achievements in our academic study? Besides, spending the whole day on academic study may make us exhausted and weak. We should find other meaningful things to do besides studying. For example, doing extracur ricular activities can make students‟ life more colorful and beneficial. There are various forms of exercise. My favorite one is football. I play football with my classmates for one hour every afternoon. After a day‟s hard work, how nice it is to stretch m y arms and legs! By playing football I‟ve got both joy and strength. I always look energetic.Actually doing extracurricular activities doesn‟t disturb our study if we make full use of our time. Instead it does help us study more efficiently. We can be good at learning as well as extracurricular activities. So I suggest that students do extracurricular activities along with their academic studies.Yours Sincerely,Tom Smith 2001年专四作文真题:Travel Broadens the Mind 年专四作文真题:(旅游开阔人的视野)——关于旅游Direction::Travel has become part of our life.

2017年专四作文真题及范文Part VI WRITING参考范文With Intelligent Machines to Do the Thinking, Will Our Brains Get Lazy?Nowadays, many aspects of people’s daily life have undergone considerable changes because of the recent development in artificial intelligence. Obviously, artificial intelligence has already completely renovated people’s lifestyle. On the one hand, th e contribution of artificial intelligence to the society is prominent and people’s dependence on it is an irreversible trend. People enjoy the benefits and convenience brought by intelligent machines. On the other hand, people are still concerned about its negative impact, for example, whether our brains will regress with intelligent machines to do the thinking.In my opinion, artificial intelligence will enable our brains to get more creative. Admittedly, a lot of work has been done by intelligent machines. It seems that the function of people has been weakened and people’s brains have been replaced. As a matter of fact, thanks to intelligent machines, people can expand their creative energy and add new varieties. Simply speaking, when people are free from tedious, repetitive, sometimes even dangerous work, work efficiency will undoubtedly be improved. As a result, people can spare more time to do what they want and pursue what they dream of, which is the premise of creativity. Moreover, creativity stems primarily from knowledge and thinking. Once people have the opportunity to do more thinking and learning, their intelligence would be enhanced rather than weakened.Although artificial intelligence is the exhibition of people’s high degree of crea tive power, it should be noted that it is like a double-edged sword. The sensible choice is to embrace its advantages and cope with the problems it has aroused. This is what an advanced and rational society should be like.2016年专四作文真题及范文P ART Ⅵ WRITINGWhich Is More Important, Education or a Cheaper Holiday?New research has shown that almost four out of ten parents in the UK have taken their children out of school to go on holidays. Cost is the main reason given by parents for sacrificingtheir children’s education. Parents are to be banned, however, by UK’s E ducation Authority, from taking their children out of school to go during term time.Should local authorities stagger school holidays to enable families with children to take advantage of travel bargains? Or is it wrong for parents to jeopardize their chi ldren’s education for the sake of a cheaper holiday? As far as I am concerned, education is more important. Firstly,children’s education must come first. A cheap holiday during the school season shouldn’t be the reason to take a child out of school. Some parents are not willing to sacrifice or schedule their lives in terms of their children’s needs. This kind of attitude will influence their children deeply. It’s no wonder so many kids are not interested in school and don’t take their study seriously. Seco Secondly, school isn’t day care center. It’s an educational institution that needs every student to ndly, school isn’t day care center. It’s an educational institution that needs every student to follow its rules. Taking a child on holiday when school is in session will disturb the order of the school. Besides, it is disruptive for the child, because he will have to catch up when he returns.All in all, taking children out of school for a cheaper holiday is irresponsible behavior. Those parents would risk being fined financially and morally. It’s not only kids that need to grow up up——————a lot of parents need to as well. a lot of parents need to as well.2015年专四作文真题及范文How I Deal with StressIn today today’’ s increasingly compe ve society, the tempo ①of people people’’s living is speeding up and more and more people are loaded with a growing amount of stress and tension.

Some people think it is not good to do so because this may not make people smart consumers. But in my eyes, the advantages of being careful with money in daily life outweigh the disadvantages.First, being careful with money is a virtue that can always benefit people. Being thrifty is of great help, especially when the economic status around the world is not very good and it becomes harder to earn money than before. A good habit of being careful with money will help many people go through this difficult period or any other difficult financial situation in their life. People with this awareness will think carefully before deciding to buy anything. For sudents, this awareness is also of great help since they mainly depend on their parents for financial supports. When they keep this awareness in their mind, they will definitely avoid wasting money.Secondly, being careful with money is, in fact, a good way of practicsing how to manageone''s money. In current society, it is necessary to learn somthing about finance. But theories areusually hard to learn. In contrast, most people can learn quickly by practising. Being careful with money means an efficient use of money, which, in essence, equals to part of the job of a financialplanner. Being careful with money can teach people to make best use of their money.It is true that being too careful with money may have some disadvantages; for example, it may cause people to ignore other aspects of commodities. But overall this behavior is good and has its reality basis. Money-consciousness is always needed in the market-oriented economy.2012年专四作文真题及范文The Dragon Boat FestivalThe Dragon Boat Festival, also called the Duanwu Festival, is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to the Chinese calendar. This festival is to commemorate the death of QU Yuan, an upright and honest poet and statesman who is said to have committed suicide by drowning himself in a river.The most important activity of this festival is the Dragon Boat races. It symbolizes people's attempts to rescue Qu Yuan. In the current period, these races also demonstrate the virtues of cooperation and teamwork.Besides, the festival has also been marked by eating zongzi (glutinous rice). Zongzi is made of glutinous rice stuffed with different fillings and wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves. People who mourned the death of Qu threw Zongzi into the river to feed his ghost every year.With the changes of the times, the memorial turns to be a time for protection from evil and disease for the rest of year. People will hang healthy herbs on the front door to clear the bad luck of the house. Although the significance of the festival might be different with the past, it still gives the observer an opportunity to glimpse a part of the rich Chinese cultural heritage.2011年专四作文真题及范文Should private car owners be taxed for pollution?私家车主是否应交污染税?With the development of society, many people can afford a car. As the number of the cars is rising, we are facing some problems. One big problem is the pollution caused by the use of cars. In order to solve this problem, government agencies in some big cities recently suggest that a “pollution tax” should be put on private cars in order to control the number of cars and reduce pollution in the city. For my part, I agree to this viewpoint, and my reasons are as follows:To begin with, cars contribute to the environmental pollution. For example, a lot of big cities in China are now plagued by serious air pollution. Then it is the responsibility of these private carowners to pay for the pollution and they should be taxed. The purpose of collecting environmental pollution tax is to raise the fund, and then utilize the tax revenue lever to protect our environment.Secondly, it is a good way to raise people’s environmental awareness by putting a pollution tax on private cars. If people suffer from the financial loss when making a decision, they will think more about their decision. Then they will consider more when deciding to buy a private car. Consequently, the increase rate of the number of the private cars can be controlled.In a word, it is a very good and necessary attempt to use the means of taxation to treat the pollution. Of course, it must be kept in mind that all people, including the private car owners, should try their best to protect the environment.2010年专四作文真题及范文2010年专四作文真题: Should College Students Hire Cleaners?(大学生是否应该雇佣清洁工)——关于大学生的生活独立Direction:It is recently reported in a newspaper that six students who shared a dorm at a local university hired a cleaner to do laundry and cleaning once a week. And each of them paid her 60 yuan a month. This has led to a heated debate as to whether college students should hire cleaners.Write a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:Should College Students Hire Cleaners?You are to write in three parts:In the first part, state clearly what your view is.In the second part, support your view with appropriate reasons.In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriateness. Failure to follow the instructions may result in a loss of marks.Should College Students Hire Cleaners?According to a recent report, six university students hired cleaners to clean their dorm and do their laundry every week. Although we have no right to tell them what to do with their money, as a university student myself, I find this practice absurd.For a start, away from our parents, it is in university that we learn to be independent adults. Cleaning the room and doing one’s laundry are the most basic living skills. If we always depend on others to take care of us, how can we survive when there is no one to help us? How can we take on any responsibility when we step into society?For another, the practice reflects their flippant attitude towards money. The money they paid for the cleaners probably comes from their parents, who must be very depressed once they know the truth. It also sets a very bad precedent on campus. Other students may follow suit to show the wealth of their families; or worse, they tend to think money can buy them anything in this world,which obviously is wrong.All in all, I think we must do away with this practice. Otherwise, we may never appreciate the good value of money and an independent way of life. The better and sooner we can take careof ourselves, the more proud our parents will be.2009年专四作文真题及范文2009年专四作文真题:Will Tourism Bring Harm to the Environment?(旅游对环境的影——关于环境响?)?)——Direction:December 5th is International V olunteers Day.

Many people believe that tourism produce positive effects on economic growth and we should try our best to promote tourism. But what these people fail to see is that tourism may bring about a disastrous impact on our environment. As for me, I'm firmly convinced that too much tourists bring harm to the environment.The bad impact of tourism on the environment has mainly expressed itself in various ways. One way is the process of exploiting a new scenic spot. In order to attract tourists, a lot of artificial facilities have been built, which have certain unfavorable effects on the environment. This processusually breaks the ecological balance of the area. In some mountainous places, trees are being cut down to build hotels for others to see and explore the beauty of the mountains. Then land slidesand mud-rock flows come up. Another way the development of tourism has damaged theenvironment occurs when tourists go to scenic spots. Some tourists don't have the awareness to protect the environment, and ignorantly throw their garbage here and there. Some people even kill the local wildlife to eat, which badly damages the balance of the natural environment.It is wrong to sacrifice the environment for the growth of tourism. We must keep in mind that too much tourists bring harm to the environment. We need to find a balance between satisfying the needs of tourists and reducing to a minimum the pollution they cause.2008年专四作文真题及范文2008年专四作文真题:The Benefits of V olunteering关于大学生和社会(参加志愿活动的好处)——关于大学生和社会Direction:December 5th is International V olunteers Day.

It is reported now China has 4.5 million registered volunteers having provided more than 4.5 billion hours of volunteer work. Why would so many people like to do volunteer work? Are there any benefits of volunteering?The answer is absolutely yes. First of all, through volunteering we can gain more experiences. Whatever volunteering work we do, either being a volunteer teacher for a village school or a volunteer worker in a retired house, we can taste different lifestyles and broaden our horizon.Secondly, through volunteering we can acquire the sense of being needed. Many people feel frustrated with travails in life and empty with the cycling of working and resting. They gradually become numb, losing the sense of being needed. By joining the volunteer group and offering help voluntarily to people who need it, we may feel happy and fulfilled again.Thirdly, through volunteering we can learn more good qualities. V olunteer work is team work, which needs good cooperation. We can know people with different personalities anddifferent background joining in the volunteer group and devoting to the volunteer work together. From our co - volunteers we can absorb many good qualities that could help us be better persons. In conclusion, volunteering is of great benefit in that we can gain more experiences, acquire the sense of being needed and learn more good qualities.2007年专四作文真题及范文2007年专四作文真题:Is It Wise to Make Friends Online?(交网友)——关于流行文化:网络Direction :Nowadays the Internet has Nowadays the Internet has become part of people’s life, and millions of young people have become part of people’s life, and millions of young people have made friends online.Write a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:Is It Wise to Make Friends Online?You are to write in three parts:In the first part, state clearly what your view is.In the second part, support your view with appropriate reasons.In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.

Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriateness. Failure to follow the instructions may result in a loss of marks.My Idea of a University Arts FestivalUniversity University arts festival has always been a big occasion to display students’ talent in art as arts festival has always been a big occasion to display students’ talent in art as well as to cultivate their artistic taste. Therefore, to make the incoming arts festival more fruitful, I personally think it should include two parts: one is to organize some art activities among students such as singing, painting, photography, recitation or short play contests, and the other is to invite all kinds of art troupes to campus to stage excellent performances of ballet, orchestra or drama for our students.As regards why university arts festival should be organized in this way, there are mainly two reasons: to develop students’ artistic potential and to enhance their aesthetic ability. Byparticipating in art contests, students not only have a golden opportunity to show their special gift for art but also undergo sort of training through preparation, rehearsal and competition. Thus those activities encourage students to get involved in art activities, which is not readily accessible to them in normal times. Such an intimate contact with real art enables students to understand art better and appreciate it properly, which will refine their artistic taste in the long run.Since my idea of arts festival integrates training students’ artistic ability with improving their aesthetic taste, I believe it will go a long way in art education, which is also the ultimate aim of university arts festival.2004年专四作文真题及范文Direction:Nowadays young people tend to phone more often than write to each other.

Failure to follow the instructions may result in a loss of marks.Will Phones Kill Letter Writing?Telephone is said to be one of the greatest inventions of the world, which has revolutionized people’s way of life. Although m ore and more people nowadays tend to phone more than write letters, I still don’t believe phones will kill letter writing in people’s daily communication.People communicate for different purposes and in different ways. Letters, though traditional in a way, help people express their ideas in a more exact way,without the careless tongue slips of telephone conversations. More importantly, it is long held that “To see is to believe.” and communication in written form is considered to be more formal than that done orally. Therefore, letters are always the preferred way of communication when it comes to formal occasions like job application, nailing down a contract or traveling information confirmation. It is not entirely groundless to say that letters are still indispensable nowadays.In a word, letters have their unique features to satisfy certain communication purposes and will therefore never be replaced by phones in people’s daily life. It’s perhaps more appropriate to say that they supplement each other instead of replacing each other.2003年专四作文真题及范文Direction:People in modern society live under a lot of pressure, from education, career, or family.

But more and more people are living under greater pressure than ever before. As a consequence, people are increasingly suffering from various distortions both physically and mentally. To help out, it is important that everyone keep a good mood today.There are several reasons for my argument. First, a good mood can create high efficiency. When you work with a good mood, you will feel happy and be willing to do some work which used to be boring. On the contrary, a bad mood can make you passive and do things with reluctance. Second, a good mood is beneficial to your health. If you fail to keep a good mood, you will be feeling depressed and fed up, which is apt to cause some psychological diseases. Third, when you have a good mood, other people around you will be influenced. Thus more and more people will feel happy to communicate with you.To sum up, keeping a good mood is very important both for yourself and for the people around you. If you want to have a happy and successful life, please keep a good mood every day.2002年专四作文真题及范文Direction:Nowadays people are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of health.
