英语专业四级历年写作真题集（作文15分，便条10分）1992年My View on Reading ExtensivelyWhen asked about how to read--read selectively or extensively? Everyone has his own view.Some would argue that they prefer reading selectively to doing extensively. They point out that with the development of modern science and technology, more and more books are published every day. It is impossible for us to read all the books. And What's more, there are many books that are poisonous to our mind, and we shouldn't read them. Since we can't read all the books, and we shouldn't read bad books, we must read selectively.But others may not agree. They emphasize that today's society is not what it used to be. If you want to be successful, you must read widely and acquire knowledge in both natural sciences and humanities. If a man knows much in one field but little in others, he may hot be of great use to the society. Since we must have a wide range of knowledge, we must read extensively.Who's right? There is a lot to be said for both sides of the argument. However, to my eyes, we should read extensively first and then read selectively and dig into the subject we want to specialize in.1993年My Idea of Becoming a Teaching in the FutureIn my opinion, becoming a secondary teacher means another big challenge in the new century. A secondary teacher in the future is required to have many different kinds of abilities. He may have to learn a lot.As is known to all of us, society develops very fast. With the development, many changes take place. In order to adapt to the changes, students are required to learn something new and have more skills. As a secondary teacher, he must know a lot and have a good knowledge of many new aspects. So, first of all, a secondary teacher in the future has to keep pace with the development of society and have a good knowledge. Second, as we all know, nowadays, a successful person is not only good at subjects, study, but also thought. Only a helpful, kind person can succeed. So a secondary teacher in the future should not only teach students something in class, but also something in life. Above these, the teacher should also do well in communicating with students. As a secondary student, he has grown up and has his own idea, even though his idea is different from the teacher’s. A secondary teacher should not only be a teacher, but also a friend of the students. He should often talk with the students and know what they think. Only in this way they should get well with each other.In a word, becoming a secondary teacher in the future means a big challenge. But I want to face this big challenge. And I would like to be a secondary teacher in the future.1994年TV: a good thing or a bad thing?Nowadays TV has got into nearly every person’s life. Most people spend their spare time watching TV programs. People like doing this because TV is a good thing in many respects. First, TV is a good source of information—news, programs and commercials timely and completely provide information about world affairs, domestic problems, sports events and business developments. Second, TV is an effective tool of education. Millions of students take the same TV lecture at the same time. No school can afford such a large classroom. Third, TV is a convenient means of entertainment. People can view plays, movies and art shows without taking the trouble of going to the theatre. Information, education and entertainment are so important that TV has become part of people’s lives. It is a really good thing today.However, if we further improve the quality of programs and eliminate sex and violence from the screen, it will be an even better thing tomorrow.1995年Nowadays it has become fashionable for college students to take a part-time job in their spare time. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this trend.In recent years, more and more college students begin to take part-time jobs in their spare time to earn pocket money or even education fees by themselves and such a phenomenon has caused numerous heated debates among the people around us. From my standpoint, taking part-time jobs has advantages as well as disadvantages.As a social activity, a part-time job certainly offers college students substantial practice, which is crucial to them after they graduate and go to their work posts. Besides, income earned from part-time jobs can solve their financial problems, especially for those who come from poor-stricken areas. Moreover, with part-time jobs, college students can put what they have learned from their books into use, thus connecting theories with practice and making abstract knowledge concrete and practical.However, since part-time jobs take much of the students’ time that must originally be spent on their studies, those who take them waste a great deal of time, therefore, their academic performance is tremendously affected. According to some worried sociologists, the duty of students is to acquire as much knowledge as possible so that they could better serve the society after their graduation. As a result, such people deem part-time jobs, which are regarded contradictory to study, as “not attending to one’s proper duties”.Admittedly, people rarely reach an absolute consensus on such a controversial issue. From my point of view, so long as college students put their courses first and concentrate on their studies while at school, certain amount of time spent on part-time jobs is not incorrect. I think the most important for them to do is to balance the two aspects well and give priority to study if the two contradict each other.Another version:Nowadays it has become fashionable for college students to take a part-time job in their spare time. I think this trend has advantages as well as disadvantages.The example of one of my classmates may well illustrate this point. By taking a part-time job, she can earn some money for her daily necessities, so as to ease her family's financial burden and become economically independent. And by taking a part-time job, she can also get some working experiences and know how to apply the knowledge to practical work, how to cooperate with others and how to deal with the problems she may face. However, because of spending too much time on part-time jobs, she does not have enough time to digest what she has learned in class. As a result, her academic studies are negatively affected. She has even failed in some examinations.Since this trend has both advantages and disadvantages, college students should be careful when they decide whether to take a part-time job or not. I advise them to strike a balance between academic studies and part-time jobs so as to make the most of the 4-year study in college.1996年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 Student’s Union to write a passage entitled:The Main Difference Between My College Life And My Middle School LifeIt is generally accepted by college students that the main difference between middle school and college life lies in the degree of independence. As for me, I prefer the more independent life in university for the following three reasons. First and foremost, since the very day I entered the university, I have learned to live on my own and cultivated thehabit of solving problems by myself. Without parents company, I have learned to arrange my daily meals for myself, wash clothes, set financial plans and make decisions relying on myself. Besides, college life is academically different from that in middle schools. Teachers in university only give students due guidance at due time, which renders college students more freedom to set academic goals. What’s more, we can choose any courses we are interested in and the teachers whose teaching styles are to our preference. Last but not least, we enjoy more free extracurricular time. We can make good use of the free time to broaden our views and make more friends.In conclusion, I am leading a life that is quite different from that in middle school, and I enjoy more independence in university. To the freshmen, I would suggest they devise various methods to adjust themselves to such an independent lifestyle sooner.1997年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 good to usThere has been a heated debate about the effect of pressure from academic studies on us students in college. Some of my fellow students argue that it is not good for us to study under great pressure. Personally I do not agree to this view.My argument is based on the following two aspects. First, no pressure means no progress. With the development of our society, competition among people grows more and more fierce. College students are no exception. They must learn how to deal with future challenges foreseeable. Under proper pressure, each student has to work hard to lay a solid foundation in his or her specialty. Second, no pressure means no self-discipline. In our daily college life, quite a few students idle away their spare time—even some of their academic time. With more academic pressure upon the students, they will cherish their time and have self-restrictions with their study and even self-behavior.In summary, I believe more pressure from academic studies does a great deal of good to us college students. If we put pressure into perspective, we will surely enjoy our campus life more and benefit more from it accordingly.1998年It is now generally accepted that vehicles (cars, trucks, etc.) are a major source of air pollution in cities. Your are to suggest only ONE way to solve the problem.One way to solve the problemWe all know that vehicles are the major source of air pollution in cities. To solve the headache, people have taken a variety of steps, but the result is not satisfying. Here, one way to solve the problem is to set gas thrifter in vehicle. Setting gas thrifter in vehicle not only decreases the consumption of gas which is a major source of air pollution but also slows down the cost of possessing a vehicle which makes millaye price lower. Thereby, all vehicles set gas thrifter will make air have a lower carbon dioxide content deriving from burning gas and coal. The less carbon dioxide, the less air pollution. Therefore, through setting gas thrifter, vehicles will bum lower gases, and the problem will partly be solved.Despite other ways to solve the problem, I think the best way is to set gas thrifter in vehicle for both effect and practice.1999年We see advertisements on television everyday. Some people think that TV advertising brings as benefits, but others don’t think so. What is your opinion?A major advantage/disadvantage of advertising on televisionEvery time we turn on the TV, we might encounter advertising. Some people enjoy the benefits advertisements bring, while others say that commercials on TV are annoying. According to my own experience, I can positively point out that the major advantage of TV ads lies in its convenience.Advertising on TV can first save me a lot of time. With the help of TV ads, it is unnecessary for me to spend much time trying to find the goods I need from one shop to another. What's more, advertising on TV can also save me much money. I can compare the similar products advertised on TV and finally get the best and cheapest one without stepping out of the door. Last but not least, some chiming music and vivid plot of TV ads are no less enjoyable than certain programs.To sum up, advertising on TV plays a vital role in our daily life, from which we can conveniently get to know what products are available, how much they cost us and where to get them—in a pleasant way.2000年College life should be varied and colorful. And extracurricular activities are an important aspect of 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 activities1.You shuttle between vocabulary tables and chemistry equations like a painstaking Puritan, axis of life joining only the classroom and dormitory, and then you risk being called "bookworm" at best and "geek" mostly. The fact is, outside the chalkboard and tomes there is a need for something complementary yet critical.For one thing, extracurricular activities animate your body. Intensive study and sedentary lifestyle have taken a toll on the well-being of many students. Myopia being a national epidemic, we see our youth wearing appalling glasses. Lack of exercise leaves millions suffering from overweight, if not obesity. However, in extracurricular activities you stretch your muscle and spare some time for your body. May it be a stroll in the park or 2 hours’ workout in the gym; these activities revitalize you and keep you in shape. For another, extracurricular activities refresh your mind. All work and no play make Jack a dull boy. Without something ”extra”, school courses amount s to unbearable toil and moil and everyday degrades to a miserable repetition of yesterday’s routine. The inevitable consequence is stifled imagination, staled thoughts and numbed senses, and we are doomed to become a group of bigoted scholars responsive only to impersonal dogmas. Extracurricular activities actually expose you to a world full of new experiences. You get to know people, visit places and develop skills. Through excursions and parties, social investigations or community work, you gradually are molded into a sociable extrovert receptive to new ideas with a wide prospective.In conclusion, extracurricular activities are an essential in that it ensures a more satisfying existence, both physically and mentally.2.People hold different opinions about how students spend their college days, but they share a common view thatcollege life should be varied and colorful. Extracurricular activities make up a important part of college life, which is indispensable in college life.To begin with, extracurricular activities enable us to build a strong body .As the proverb says, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Without good health, we cannot improve our study efficiency and make great achievements in academic studies. On the other hand, outside-class activities help us to develop teamwork spirit. Students should not spend the whole day on academic studies. It is very crucial for us to get along and cooperate well with others in a group。

96TEM4 SECTION 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 LIFEas 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 MiddleSchool 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．97TEM4 SECTION 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 disagreewith 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 becomesintense. 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.98TEM4 SECTION 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 numberof 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 the pleasure 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.2000 TEM4 SECTION 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 aspect of 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 ActivitiesIn 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 awardedfor 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 extracurricular activities can make students‟ life more colorful and beneficial. There are various forms of exercise. My favorite one is football. I playfootball with my classmates for one hour every afternoon. After aday‟s hard work, how nice it is to stretch my arms and legs! By playing football I‟ve got both joy and strength. I always look energetic.Act ually 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,T om Smith2001TEM4 SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN]Travel has become part of our life. And more and more of us have come to know the significance of travel through our own experience. Write on ANSWER SHEET ONE a composition of about 150 wordson the following topic:TRA VEL BROADENS THE MINDYou are to write in three parts.In the first part, state what the topic actually means to you.In the second part, give one or two examples to illustrate your ideas.In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusionor a summary.Travel Broadens the MindNowadays, travel has become a popular activity. More and more people have enough money to travel abroad or at home. As a matter of fact, travel has become part of our life. This situation is encouraging, for it not only broadens people's minds to the extend which may not be reached previously, but also relaxes them physically, which help people work out mental problems more actively.One of my best friends is so exclusively engaged in his works that he did not even know what was happening out of his own discipline. What‟s worse, his progress was nearly little. After accepting my advice, he travelled a few cities and towns. The experience gave him a good opportunity of learning. Today, he gets a bumper harvest in his knowledge——the longstanding dream of entering graduate school comes true.In conclusion, travel opens our mind because it enables us to know about the history and culture of a nation. In a way, going on travels is like reading books.2002 TEM4 SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN] Nowadays people are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of health. And they have different ways to stay healthy.For example, some exercise every day; others try to keep a balanced diet. What do you think is the best way to stay healthy?Write a composition of about 150 words on the following topic: THE BEST WAY TO STAY HEALTHYYou are to write in three parts.In the first part, state what you think is the best way.In the second part, support your view with one or two reasons.In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.The Best Way to Stay HealthyNowadays，the desire for good health is universal. Wherever you are and whatever you do, staying healthy is always important. With the improvement of our living standards, people are attaching more and more importance to their health. However, which do you think is the best way to keep healthy?Different people come up with different views: eating green food, doing outdoor exercises or going to hospital for medical treatment frequently. As far as I am concerned, the best way to keep healthy is to develop a good quality of psychology. According to some surveys, nowadays, most patients are not physically sick but mentally ill. The burden on their shoulders is much heavier than others, so they can‟ t step out of the shadow of depressio n andsadness. They need to release their spirit to the nature. Besides, if you have developed a good quality of psychology, you‟ll become more sociable and thus more willing to play your part in the society. Enrolling for some keep-fit clubs or joining some travel agency, which by themselves are various versions of physical exercise, will benefit you a lot.As a poem says, youth is not a period of time; it‟s a state of mind. Everybody wants to keep young at heart because youth is a symbol for endless energy and passion for living. Keep a good quality of mind, or keep a sense of humour, even if you are 80, and you‟ll never be old.2003 TEM4 SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN] People in modern society live under a lot of pressure, from education, career, or family. So it is important for them to keep a good mood under whatever circumstances. Write on ANSWER SHEET ONE a composition of about 150 words on the following topic:THE IMPORTANCE OF KEEPING A GOOD MOODYou are to write in three parts.In the first part, state specifically what your view is.In the second part, support your view with one or two reasons.In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.THE IMPORTANCE OF KEEPING A GOOD MOODPeople in modern society live under a lot of pressure. I see three kinds of pressure working on people today: pressure from education, family and career. It is easy to blame the school for charging too much money, the family members for the heavy burden, the society for the fierce competition. I think people should relax. It is important for them to keep a good mood under whatever circumstances.Long gone are the days when people lived their life with a certain relaxation, sampling a wide variety of activities—film, music, art, poetry. But now, a lot of people suffer from a lot of pressure. They can‟t communicate well with co-workers and family members, and have unbalanced, one-dimensional lives. Some people complain of symptoms of stress, for instance, loss of appetite, a complete sense of exhaustion, insomnia and low morale. Thus have destructive effect on their health. People tend to lose temper easily, and this may interfere personal relationship. What‟s more, a high rate of suicide may warn people of their emotional well-being.To be a healthy person physically and psychologically, one should keep a good mood, according to some psychology experts.Those little things may seem relatively insignificant—reading mystery novels, playing volleyball, spending time with family and friends, maintaining your emotional well-being, getting plenty of rest, going fishing. They can help you keep a good mood.2004 TEM4 SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN] Nowadays young people tend to phone more often than write to each other. So, some say that phones will kill letter writing. What is your opinion?Write on ANSWER SHEET ONE a composition of about 150 words on the following topic:WILL PHONES KILL LETTER WRITING?You are to write in three parts.In the first part, state specifically what your view is.In the second part, support your view with one or two reasons.In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.Letter Writing Will Not Be Killed Nowadays, young people choose to phone each other rather writing letters. But even if so, I still maintain that letter writing will never be killed by phones, though we have stepped into theInformation Age.First, letters can express your subtle feelings. With the increase of the living pace of modern society, we find that there is a lack of communication now. Sometimes when you are speaking to someone that you care and love on the phone, you are so shy that it‟s too hard to express any of your feelings towards him/her. Your throat seems to be blocked! At this time, letters will help. Without any embarrassment, you can just write down your deep concern and love on a piece of paper. When you drop the letter into the pillar-box, you will feel what he/she will receive is not only a letter, but also your deepest love. Secondly, letters can be kept as a record of memory, while phones cannot. Just imagine, when you open an old box of letters and read them years later, a lot of beautiful and indelible memories will be brought back to you. What an irreplaceable feeling it is! And I believe, this feeling is something that you can definitely never experience through several phone calls.All in all, letter writing will absolutely survive and even thrive in the Information Age. Phones can never kill it, neither will anything.2005 TEM4 SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN]The students‟ Union of your university is planning to hold an artsfestival next semester, and they are inviting students to contribute their ideas and suggestions as to how it should be organized or what should be included.Write on ANSWER SHEET TWO a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:MY IDEA OF A UNIVERSITY ARTS FESTIV ALYou are to write in three parts.In the first part, state what you think is the best way.In the second part, support your view with one or two reasons.In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.My Idea of a University Arts FestivalAn arts festival will no doubt add much to our campus life, since it, like other group activities, will be a stage on which students from different colleges and departments communicate and share their interests. This festival, of course, needs to be well organized, so as to get everyone involved. While all kinds of activities contribute to this great festival, lectures by leading artists in this country will surely make it more successful.First of all, influential …stars‟ are always an attraction to involve the greatest number of participants. The main purpose of this festival, just as other cam pus activities, is to add variety to students‟ life. Itsresults and influence need to be measured more by the number of participants than by their artistic level it will display. The more people get involved, the more successful the festival. While a few of the students are busy performing during the festival, lectures permit the majority to sit there listening and asking their …masters‟ questions. Secondly, face-to-face communication between students, some of whom are potential artists, and the leading artists is always a bridge linking textbook knowledge and practice. University students spend most of their time learning from textbooks or at the library, but knowing how to do is quite different from doing it. The experience of and advice from those practitioners in the fields of music, movie, and painting help university students to think what else they need to learn and what they will do in the future. What‟s more, lectures by well-known experts will enhance the influence of the arts festival and the university. Arts festivals are held in many universities in the city, but they are organized in more or less the same way. As far as I know, lectures are seldom part of them. Therefore, it will promote the reputation of our festival, which is a new comer in the city.In a word, it will be beneficial to invite some experts to give lectures. It will get more students to get involved, students will benefit from lectures by experts, and it will draw more public attention to the festival.2006 TEM4 SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN] Recently a Beijing information company did a survey of student lifeamong more than 700 students in Beijing, Guangzhou ,Xi 'an, Chengdu , Shanghai , Wuhan, Nanjing ,and Shenyang . The results have shown that 67 percent of students think that saving money is a good habit while the rest believe that using tomorrow's money today is better, what do you think?Write on ANSWER SHEET ONE a composition of about 150 words on the following topic:Saving Money or Spending Tomorrow’s Money You are to write in three parts.In the first part, state what you think is the best way.In the second part, support your view with one or two reasons.In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.You should supply an appropriate title for your composition.Saving Money or Spending Tomorrow’s Money Recently a Beijing information company did a survey of student life among more than 700 students in Beijing, Guangzhou, Xi‟an, Chengdu and Shanghai, etc. To my surprise, almost 67 percent of students regarded saving money as a good habit. As far as I am concerned, spending tomorrow‟s money today is a better and wiser option.First of all, spending tomorrow‟s money may improve our living standards and enable us to live a happy and well-to-do life. Still remember the wide-spread story about two old ladies—one is American and the other is Chinese. In her life the American lady spent tomorrow‟s money, enjoying the capacious houses, luxuriouscars and all the modern electrical appliances. Before she died, she had paid off all her loans, and she said she had no regret in her life and she had led a happy life. On the other hand, the Chinese one just saved money, living a hard life. When she died, she finally could afford the luxurious houses with her savings, but she had no time to enjoy it any longer. What a poor lady! What‟s more, spending tomorrow‟s money also plays a significant role in the economy of our country. Since it can spur people to make more money to enjoy life, the consumerism by this trend will undoubtedly drive forward our economy. With the country‟s economy developed, the best beneficiary is our common people. In other word, it is the best way to ensure a life free from poverty and anxiety about future.All in all, with benefits to both our personal lives and the development of the country, spending tomorrow‟s money in advance will be a sensible choice, comparing with a life of saving money all life long which will surely brings us poverty.2007 TEM4 SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN] Nowadays the Internet has become part of people‟s life, and millionof young people have made friends online.Write on ANSWER SHEET ONE a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:Is It Wise to Make Friends OnlineYou are to write in three parts.In the first part, state what you think is the best way.In the second part, support your view with one or two reasons.In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.Is It Wise to Make Friends Online?Internet, as one of the most important inventions of the twentieth century, has greatly changed our life. Nowadays, more and more young people have many friends online, which, as far as I am concerned, has more benefits than negative efforts.Firstly, Internet enlarges our circle of friends considerably. No other ways of communication enable us to makes friends all around the world as easily as Internet does. As long as we can speak English or other foreign languages, we are able to chat with Americans, Japanese as well as European people, and therefore, to broaden our views by exposing ourselves to various cultures and experiences. Apart from that, we tend to be more honest and straightforward when we make online friends than in real life. Since in the cyberspace, we cannot see others‟faces, we do not have to worry about the negative results brought by direct communication. For instance, we are free to air our opinions on some sensitive issues of the society, and share our little secrets with our online friends with ease. In this way, online friendship gives rise to more openness and less stress or pressure at the same time.While many people argue that making friends online is notstable or even dangerous, I posit that embracing this technological innovation by becoming a true netizen is definitely a wise choice.Will Tourism Bring Harm to the Environment?In recent years, tourism has developed rapidly in China. 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 process usually 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 slides and mud-rock flows come up. Another way the development of tourism has damaged the environment 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.。

The greatest change occurs in grain consumption, which has dropped 4% from 49% in 1986 to 45% in 1990 in total food consumption. The second greatest change is in milk consumption, which increased from 10% in 1986 to 13% in 1990. But on the other hand, two trends can be observed in the consumption of meat and fruit and vegetables. From 1986 to 1989, meat consumption increased from 17% to 23% while that of fruit and vegetables dropped from 24% to 20%. From 1989 to 1990, meat consumption dropped a little to 21%, while that of fruit and vegetables increased a little to 21%. What has caused the great changes in people's diet? The main reason, I think, lies in the improvement in people's income level. With the development of our society, people are becoming richer and richer, which enables them to purchase more nutritious food such as meat and milk. In the meantime, grain consumption in people's diet consequently dropped.So from the analysis, we can draw a conclusion that our society is progressing andpeople are living a better life than ever before. We are now able to purchase moredelicious and nutritious food, resulting in an improvement in our health.六级作文题：Directions: for this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition based on the graph below.Outline:1.Rise and fall of the rate of car accident as indicated by the graph;2.Possible reason (s) for the decline of car accidents in the city;3.Your predictions of what will happen this year.Food Year 1986 1987 1988 1989 1990Grain 49% 47% 46.5% 45% 45%Milk 10% 11% 11% 12% 13%Meet 17% 20% 22.5% 23% 21%Fruit and vegetables 24% 22% 20% 20% 21%Total 100% 100% 100% 100% 100%Your composition should be no less than 120 words and you should quote as few figures as possible.范文：The graph shows the changing rate of car accidents in Walton city in 1990. The first two months of 1990 showed an increasing trend. The rate rose to 32 in March butfell to 26 in June. From June on the rate was rising again and reached the peak point 39 in August. After August the rate began to decline, and eventually dropped to the lowest point 16 at the end of the year. The highest rate in August was due to unfavorable weather conditions. Humidity and high temperature make drivers impatient, which easily leads to car accidents. The high rate in the first half of 1990 was also caused by the bad weather condition. InWalton City the excessive rain comes at early spring. The rain made road slippery, which often resulted in car accidents. This year the pattern is expected to change. The city government has raised fund to improve the road condition. Two new roads will be finised at the beginning of this year and are expected to open to traffic soon. Furthermore, the new road regulation provides that in summer every car must be air-conditioned. With all these precautions, I'm sure that the rate of car accidents will be much lower this year. 1992年12月CET 作文题目 四级作文题目： The Positive and Negative Aspects of Sports 1.体育运动的好处. 2.体育运动可能带来的副作用. 3.我参加体育运动的体会. 范文： To a Chinese, the task of learning English well is not easy. So I, like many other English learners, have met with difficulties in learning English during the past seven years. But I managed to overcome them and made much progress.The spelling and meaning of words can be said to be the first difficulty I met as a beginner. But I found our my own way to deal with them. As to spelling, I never copied a new work again and again to remember it, but tried to find its relevance to the sound. In fact, as long as I can read the word out, I can write it out. As to the meaning, I rarely recite its Chinese translation but often put the word into the sentence to learn its meaning. Moreover, if you use a word quite often, its spelling and meaning will be no problem. After all, we are learning English in order to use it.Grammar and idioms may be another difficulty. But I have also got over it. I have not read lots of grammar books. But I spent much time reading the articles written by native speakers or specialists in English. By doing so, I came to gain “a sense of En glish language”. I began to gain a feel for which sentences are “good English” and which are not.Finally, I want to say that overcoming all these difficulties requires perseverance. In the past seven years I spent at least an hour on English each day. I believe this is an important reason why I am able to make progress in learning English.六级作文题目Directions:1．新世纪科技发展的前景如何？2．新的科学技术会给社会带来什么好处？3．新的科学技术会给社会带来什么问题？4. 你怎样对待新世纪的挑战？Looking Forward to the Twenty-first Century范文：The new century is approaching.

Most important of all, they can decelerate aging and prolong life.Besides, permanent stations will be set up in the moon or other planets or stars so that scientists can make a thorough study of the moon and other planets or star. Most probably life will be found in other stars in universe or the planets or stars suitable for the human existence will be discovered.However, the scientific development will also bring about some social problems. How should we regard from an ethical perspective the one who is bred through the gene technology in the laboratory. How can the police identify the criminal from a group of people with the same DNA?It is quite natural that we will meet problems in the scientific and social development. Therefore, we should be prepared to meet new challenges.1993年1月CET作文题目四级作文题：Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic Positive and Negative Aspects of Sport.

When there is a traffic jam, it can go through the cars that are held up in the street. Besides, it doesn't consume much petrol. Most important of all, it can carry another person at the back.But every coin has two sides. The negative aspects are also apparent. To begin with, it's very complicated to get qualified for riding a motorcycle. You'll have to go through a series of procedures to get a riding license. Furthermore, the maintenance is expensive. Worst of all, it costs a big sum of money to pay for the license plate, especially in Shanghai.In conclusion, it has both favorable and unfavorable aspects. However, if the authorities concerned simplify the procedures and reduce the cost of the license plate, the motorcycle will be accepted by more people.1993年6月CET作文题目四级作文题：Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic My Most Favorite Programme.

And the most important character is its fast pace. Because of this fast pace, news programs can contain much information in a short time.In my opinion, the News Report is more than a TV program.
