200年专四作文真题：Travel Broadens the Mind（旅游开阔人的视野）——关于旅游Direction：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 a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:Travel Broadens the MindYou 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.There are four sample compositions I sifted from Internet and I marked some phrases that explain how travel broadens the mind.01 Travel Broadens the MindNowadays more and more people choose to travel during their holidays, since travel not only brings leisure and joy but also broadens the mind. As for me, not only can it bring me more historical knowledge, but it can also add to my social experience.Take my trip to Mount Tai for example. As is known to all, it’s a magnificent mountain famous for both the beautiful scenery and the splendid cultural heritage. At the very sight of her, m y soul was attached to her. I remembered the poem “Wang Yue” written by Du Fu, I remembered many historic events which happened on this land and I also recalled the responsibility to conserve this heritage. As I climbed up the mountain, our guide told me many things I had never got to know before, which of course broadened my scope of knowledge. It was also on this trip that I made many new friends with whom I exchanged my opinions, and that I got acquainted with some information about first aid and package tour. All this indeed added to my social experience.In short, travel offers a good chance for me to open my eyes and enrich my experience while I can enjoy myself. It broadens the mind in a relaxing way.02Travel broadens the mindTravel has many benefits to offer. It enriches our experiences and helps us know more about the world, aside from relaxing ourselves both physically and psychologically.To begin with, travel is one of the best ways to enrich our experiences. If wevisit tourist attractions and historical or cultural relics at different places of our country or foreign lands, we will meet different people, enjoy exotic natural sceneries, have a taste of varied cultures and, in the long run, enrich our knowledge. Moreover, travel also helps to enlighten and broaden our minds, since it provides us with new perspectives through what we learn from other cultures. For example, it helps to reduce cultural prejudice after we have got a better understanding of civilizations that vary sharply from one another.Travel is gaining increasing popularity among us. We travel to relax ourselves, enrich our experiences and broaden our minds.03Travel broadens the mindNowadays more and more people spend their weekends or holidays on travelling. It is considered a popular way to enjoy life. In my mind, travel not only relaxes people physically but also broadens the mind.First of all, travel can help people learn different geography. When they have been to Tibet, they will know what plateau is; When they have been to Sahara, they will know what desert is; when they have been to Amazon, they will know what rain forest is;… Every new place they travelled is their best teachers to teach them geography. Secondly, travel can help people understand various cultures. When people travel in their homeland, they can experience the customs of different peoples. For example, Chinese love to go on their holidays in minority areas where many ethnic peoples live, such as Qiang People in Sichuan, Tibetan in Tibet, Dai People in Yunnan. Besides enjoying the breathtaking natural sceneries there, they can try hundreds of delicious foods and drinks, and celebrate many wonderful festivals with locals. Thus, travel will foster greater understanding among peoples of different traditions and bring harmony to China. In addition, by travelling abroad, people will experience exotic customs, cultures and traditions. They can also learn foreign languages which enable them to appreciate literature and know history.As I mentioned above, people gain kinds of knowledge through travelling. That is travel broadens the mind.04Travel broadens the mindAs far as we know, modern people have more time at their disposal, long holiday, and long weekend. But how to take great advantage of the leisure time is a problem. Someone chose staying at to spend the boring time; someone would rather sleep during the holiday. However, as far as I concerned, traveling is not a bad choice, which one can broadens one’s mind when do it.Firstly, one can learn some different knowledge during travel. When one go around a place, who must be attracted by the local culture and custom, and the curiosity will force one to realize it, the local history, culture and the story of it .So people can learn a lot which one c an’t study from the text book. Secondly, one must meet many people from all over the country and thus can learn something from them. Place of interest attract a lot of people who take their different experience and opinions which is about the same stuff. When one meet with them, and those people can share their cheerful time with you, as well as some grieved experience, which will largely enrich one’s mind.To sum up, travel can surely broadens one’s mind. If one possesses enough money and plenty of time at one’s disposal, then travel is the best choice。

1989年1月四级作文题及范文Directions: The Tape Recorder范文：The tape recorder is one of the most welcome and popular electronic devices ever invented. Nowadays, almost every family has a tape recorder. It can record people’s voices or popular songs or some other t hings that people would like to listen to more than once. Tape recorders have been warmly welcomed since the day they were invented.This device is useful in many ways. For example, a reporter can use it in interviews instead of the old, less accurate means of writing them in a notebook. Also, in studying foreign languages, students can use it to improve their listening ability. Moreover, they can record their own voice to improve their pronunciation in the foreign language.However, it can also become a nuisance. Your hearing can be seriously harmed if you listen to a recorder with the volume too high. And, if you can’t control yourself, you can waste a lot of time listening to a recorder. So, if used properly, the recorder will serve you well. If used improperly, it can do harm to you.1990年1月四级作文题及范文Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition about What Would Happen If There Were No Power in three paragraphs.

If there were no electric power.3. Therefore.范文：Ever since early this century, electricity has become an essential part of our modern life. It plays an important role in many fields such as industry, agriculture and the daily life of men. Electricity is a source of energy that makes it possible for the factories to turn out products and for people to create comfortable living conditions, for example.If there were no electric power, things would be quite different. Machines could not run and people would have to fall back on their hands to produce what is essential for them to keep alive. Traffic would have to stop at night because there would be no lights in the street. A world in darkness would no longer be a pleasant one. In a word, things would be in a mess.Therefore, we should realize the importance of electricity. As electricity is insufficient in our country, we should be frugal in using electricity. We should make great efforts to produce more electricity.1990年6月四级作文题及范文Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the title: make our city greener, your composition should be based on the following outline:1：城市绿色的状况2：绿化的好处（如：清洁空气，美化城市，改善气候......）3：怎样才能实现绿化范文：Recent efforts toward the greening of our cities have achieved much, although the results are still far from satisfactory. In recent years many trees have been planted in the cities and much care has been taken of the planted trees. In spite of all this, the greening process is relatively slow compared with cities in many other countries. For example, the green space available on average to each Shanghai citizen is only 0.4 Mu while every Londoner has more than 20 Mu.We can benefit much from making our cities greener by planting trees. First, trees absorb carbon dioxide to produce oxygen which is essential to the health of human beings. Second, trees and other greenery make our cities more beautiful. Third, trees can also improve the climate of the cities.Since we can get so much from making our cities greener, we should spare no effort to do that. We should plant more trees and take better care of them. We also should not cut down the trees. In a word, we should do everything to add to the greening of our cities.1991年1月四级作文题及范文Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition about What Would Happen If There Were No Power in three paragraphs.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked [A], [B],[C] and [D]. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage ADogs are social animals and without proper training, they will behave like wild animals. They will soil your house, destroy your belongings, bark excessively, fight other dogs and even bite you. Nearly all behavior problems are perfectly normal dog activities that occur at the wrong time or place or are directed at the wrong thing. The key to preventing or treating behavior problems is learning to teach the dog to redirect its normal behavior to outlets that are acceptablein the domestic setting.One of the best things you can do for your dog and yourself is to obedience train(驯服) it. Obedience training doesn't solve all behavior problems, but it is the foundation for solving just about any problem. Training opens up a line of communication between you and your dog. Effective communication is necessary to instruct your dog about what you want it to do.Training is also an easy way to establish the social rank order. When your dog obeys a simple request of “come here, sit,”it is showing obedience and respect for you.It is not necessary to establish yourself as top dog or leader of the dog pack ( 群) by using extreme measures. You can teach your dog its subordinate(从属的) role by teaching it to show submission to you. Most dogs love performing tricks for you to pleasantly accept that you are in charge.Training should be fun and rewarding for you and your dog. It can enrich your relationship and make living together more enjoyable. A well-trained dog is more confident and can more safely be allowed a greater amount of freedom than an untrained animal.21.Behavior problems of dogs are believed to _______.A. be just part of their nature.B. worsen in modern society.C. occur when they go wildD. present a threat to the communityBestAnswer:A详解:[A] 要点判断题。

But now that the country has embarked on the return to democracy, Commonwealth heads of government have agreed to end this estrangement. Secretary general chief Ormiga Anyaco said in a statement: "I'm delighted at a fortunate episode in Nigeria Commonwealth relations will now come to an end and Nigeria is resuming its rightful place in the Commonwealth."News Item Two (21--22)The Space Shuttle Discovery made a real night landing at the Kennedy Space Center early on Thursday. The night landing, the 11th in the centre's 94 shuttle missions, ended a 10-day mission to outfit the orbiting international space station. Although the space craft created a solid boom that can be heard along much of Florida's eastern seaboard, witnesses on the ground could not see the orbiter until it was directly over the one-way lights. Scattered showers off the Florida coast had threatened to postpone the shuttle's return. But broadcasters gave a green light when they decided no rain will fall within 48 kilometres of the space centre.News Item Three (23-- 24)Five people died, two were missing and at least 18 were injured on Wednesday when an Italian petrol vessel collided with a dingy filled with refugees crossing the Agiatic sea from Albania, authorities said. The victims were believed to be Albanians from either Albania or Kosovo, said authorities from Italy's Tax Police Division, which, along with the coast guard, patrols the nation's coast. The cause of the collision was not immediately known. Three Albanians believed to smuggle the refugees were arrested a few hours after the accident.News Item Four (25)Malaysian authorities are discussing possible salvage efforts with Sun Cruisers, the Singapore owner of a large liner, that sunk off Malaysia last week, a news report said yesterday. Sun cruisers had received some advice from Malaysia on the matter. The Business Times newspaper quoted the company's spokeswoman Judy Shoo Asian. Judy and other Sun Cruiser's officials could not immediately be reached for further comment as they were away in Indonesia. The Sun Vista went down in international waters. The nearby Malaysia may have the right to order the wreck's removal, the newspaper said. Salvage experts said the wreck of the Sun Vista, which sank 65 metres of water, poses no threat to ships passing over it. But Malaysia may still want it removed.听力完TEST FOR ENGLISH MAJORS (2001)—GRADE FOUR—TIME LIMIT: 140 MINPART ⅠWRITING [45 MIN]SECTION A COMPOSITION [35 MIN]Travel has become part of our life.

英语四级作文历年真题参考范文(cet4)2000年6月大学英语四级考试Is A Test of Spoken English Necessary?A test of spoken English will be included as an optional (component of the College English Test (CET). Some people contend that it is absolutely necessary to hold a test of spoken English in China because we have been told many times that a Chinese student who has been learning English for years cannot communicate with a native English speaker. Sometimes even those top students who excel at grammar and writing skills find their English inadequate to express their thoughts freely when speaking. A test of spoken English will bring the importance of speaking English to the awareness of the college students, and thus help them with their communicating skills.On the other hand, there are also people who maintain that good reading and writing skills would be enough for the average English learners. College students are already under considerable pressure from their coursework. Another required test will only add to their burden. Also, some students may take the shortcut and only practice the questions according to the fixed format of the test, which will not actually improve their spoken English.I believe that a test of spoken English will do more good than harm. Since China will continue its policy of opening and reform, the ability to speak fluent English is a must for anyone who wants to surpass others in a highly competitive society. Whether I take the test or not, I shall make all efforts to practice my spoken English in the rest years in college.2001年1月大学英语四级考试How to Succeed in a Job Interview?Nowadays, in an ever tighter job market, great importance has been attached to an interview by both the employer and the applicant. The interview, so to speak, has become indispensable for getting a satisfactory job. On the one hand, the interviewer can take advantage of the occasion to learn about the candidates, such as their work experiences, education and their personalities, so as to pick out the right person for the company. On the other hand, the interviewee can make use of the opportunity to get to know the job he is going to take up, the salary, the working conditions and many other things about the job he is interested in.Therefore, the job interview is very important to a job-hunter. But how can one succeed in it?Firstly of all, the interviewee must pay attention to his or her appearance. The first impression is always where we start. Get dressed properly and neatly. Secondly, good manners are equally important. Don’t be too proud, and neither too timid. Just be courteous. Thirdly, the interviewee must demonstrate his aptitude and skills for the job and his knowledge about eh job-related areas. Be confident. Last but not the least, the interviewee ought to be honest about his or her personal as well as academic background, for honesty is the best policy.To sum up, the job interview is indeed important, but there is no need to be nervous. As long as the interviewee has the ability for the job, with careful preparation and a fairly confident and honest performance, his or her success can be ensured.2001年6月大学英语四级考试A letter to a SchoolmateDear Xiao Wang,I’m delighted to learn that you are going to visit me duringthe week-long vacation. My parents will also be happy to see you again. I’m sure you will enjoy every minute here.I know you are fond of swimming. A river lies not far away from my home. We can go swimming there. I think it would be very pleasant and refreshing to swim in such hot summer days. In every big room of my home there is an air-conditioner. We can watch TV, play CDs or read books very comfortably at home.A mountain about two miles away from here is beautiful and it is worth touring. We can go there on foot. When we climb to the top of the mountain, we can have a wonderful bird-eye view of the whole village.Just phone me before you set off. There is no need for you to take anything. I’ll prepare everything for you.I am looking forward to seeing you soon.2002年1月大学英语四级考试A Letter to the University President about the Canteen Service on CampusJanuary 12th, 2002Dear Mr. President,I’m very lucky to attend this world-famous university, but I’m afraid I’m not content with the canteen service on ca mpus.Firstly, the quality of the dishes should be improved. Undoubtedly, there are a lot of delicious dishes, but all the year round, they are the same. More and more students are complaining about eating the same food each day. So I think the most urgent problem is variety.Secondly, the price is a bit too high. Many of us hope that the canteen can provide us with not only delicious but also cheaper food.Finally, the environment is so noisy that we can’t enjoy ourmeals in good mood. I suggest that there be some soft music to help us relax.These suggestions are not just of my own, but also of may other students. We hope our respectable president will pay attention to our suggestions.By the way, the canteen workers are very patient and always smiling. So I think if our university offers them better conditions, they will offer us better service.Best wishes,Yours sincerely,Liming2002年6月大学英语四级考试Student Use of ComputersStudents tend to use computers more and more nowadays. Reading this chart, we can find that the average number of hours a student spends on the computer per week has increased sharply. In 1990, it was less than 2 hours; and in 1995, it increased to almost 4 hours; while in 2000, the number soared to 20 hours.Obviously computers are becoming more and more popular. There are several reasons for this. First, computers facilitate us in more aspects of life. Also, the fast development of the Internet enlarges our demands for using computers. We can easily contact with friends in remote places through the Internet. Besides, the prices of computers are getting lower and lower, which enables more students to purchase them.Along with the time spent on computers, there arise some problems. The most serious one is that many students are spending so much time playing PC games so that they ignore their studies. It is urgent to let the students use computers in a proper way.2002年12月大学英语四级考试It pays to Be HonestAlthough honesty is believed to be a virtue, there are still dishonest people in our society. For example, some businessmen sell fake product to their consumers; some students cheat in the exams.Dishonest people are short-sighted. Those who sell fake products may make money at first, but consumers won’t buy their products any more. As a result, they will lose their fortune or even be sent to prison. By contrast, honest people gain a lot.Those who always tell truth or keep to their promise not only let others trust them but gain respect from other people as well. Such persons are sure to have a lot of good friends. Because they are trustable and respectable, everyone is eager to make friends with them, Besides, it is easier for a person with a good record to get a good job. Generally speaking, every employer wants his employees to be honest. So we can say that anyone who is honest will be paid back later.In a word, honesty wins trust, respect and honor. So it is important that we should be honest.2003年6月大学英语四级考试An Eye-Witness Account of a Traffic AccidentMy name is Liming. I am studying at college. A week ago I saw a traffic accident, which is still vivid in my mind.It was at about 9:00 on Saturday morning, June 15th, when I went out of the university to visit a friend of mine at another university. I was walking leisurely on the sidewalk when I heard a loud crash of two vehicles just at the T-junction about 10 meters away. Two taxis crashed together. It was a traffic accident.I went up and found that the two taxis were badly damaged.Both hoofs were out of shape. One door of a car was knocked off and lying on the road. One driver was blooding and another was shut in the taxi. Some people were trying to help the driver get out of the damaged car. One man was calling to the traffic policeman station. A lot of cars were jammed on the road.From the stopping track on the road, it is clear that the two taxis were driving too fast. But it is just one of the reasons. In my opinion, the taxi drivers are eager to take more passengers and make a little more money. On the other hand, both drivers don't show concern for one another. Both of them wanted to run in front of another. Therefore, the accident is inevitable. So far, we should let the drivers keep it in their mind that a little slower, a little safer. Taking care of other's lives means taking care of your own life.2003年9月大学英语四级考试The Day My Classmate Fell Ill (or Got Injured)During the SARS period in this spring, the year of 2003, one of my classmates, Li ming, was struck down by the virus and was immediately sent to hospital.The news spread quickly on campus. At first, we were terrified and wondered if we were infected too. However, through our government's publicity on mass media, we gradually conquered the fear and set out to try out best to help her. Some teachers provided darly necessities while some students recorded the English class contents for him so that Li ming could not be left behind. With our care and concern, Li ming recovered quickly.Such an incident teaches us a good moral. Our society is full of love, warm and peaceful, in which people-from man to woman, from individual to individual-lend others a hand. Just like afamous song goes, "the world will turn itto heaven only if everyone contributes a little." and I do believe that it's my great honor to live in this love-filled paradise。

One morning you wave goodbye, and that __71__ evening you’re burning the late-night oil in sympathy. In the race to improve educational standards, __72__ are throwing the books at kids. __73__ elementary school students are complaining of homework __74__. What’s a well-meaning parent to do?As hard as __75__ may be, sit back and chill experts advise. Though you’ve got to get them to do it, __76__ helping too much, or even examining __77__ too carefully, you may keep them __78__ doing it by themselves. “I wouldn’t advise a parent to check every __79__ assignment,” says psychologist John Rosemond, author of Ending the Tough Homework.There’s a __80__ of appreciation for trial and error. Let your children __81__ the grade they deserve.Many experts believe parents should gently look over the work of younger children and ask them to rethink their __82__. But “you don’t want them to feel it has to be __83__,” she says.That’s not to say parents should __84__ homework -- first, they should monitor how much homework their kids __85__. Thirty minutes a day in the early elementary years and an hour in __86__ four, five, and six is standard, says Rosemond.

It’s the one 61 the teacher standing in the schoolroom door 62 goodbye to students for the summer and calling 63 them, "By the way, we won World War II."The problem with the joke, of course, is that it’s 64 funny.

I’ve been 71 only once –for a woman who had merely fainted. But the 72 made me quite curious about how 73 this kind of thing happens I wondered what I would do if 74 with a real midair medical emergency-with out access 75 a hospital staff and the usual emergency equipment. So 76 the New England Journal of Medicine last week 77 a study about in –flight medical events. I read it 78 interest.The study estimated that there are a(n) 79 of 30 in-flight medical emergencies on U.S. flights every day. Most of them are not 80;fainting and dizziness are the most frequent complaints.81 13% of them –roughly four a day – are serious enough to 82 a pilot to change course. The most common of the serious emergencies 83 heart trouble. strokes, and difficulty breathing.Let’s face it: plane rides are starters, cabin pressures at h igh altitudes are set at roughly 85 they would be if you lived at 5,000 to 8,000 feet above sea level. Most people can tolerate these pressures pretty 86 ,but passengers with heart disease 87 experience chest pains as result of the reduced amount of oxygen flowing through their blood. 88 common in-flight problem is deep venous thrombosis –the so-called economy class syndrome (综合症).89 happens, don’t panic. Things are getting better on the in-flight-emergency front. Thanks to more recent legislation, flights with at 90 one attendant are starting to install emergency medical kits to treat heart attacks.71 A)called C)Informed B)addressed D)surveyed72 A)Accident C)incident B)condition D)disaster73 A)soon C)many B)long D)often74 A)confronted C)identified B)treated D)provided75 A)for C)by B)to D)through76 A)before C)when B)since D)while77 A)collected C)discovered B)conducted D)published78 A)by C)with B)of D)in79 A)amount C)sum B)average D)number80 A)significant C)common B)heavy D)serious81 A)For C)But B)On D)So82 A)require C)engage B)inspire D)command83 A)include C)imply B)confine D)contain84 A)enjoyable C)tedious B)stimulating D)stressful85 A)who C)which B)what D)that86 A)harshly C)easily B)reluctantly D)casually87 A)ought to C)used to B)may D)need88 A)Any C)Other B)One D)Another89 A)Whatever C)Whenever C)Whichever D)Wherever90 A)most C)least B)worst D)best（2006年6月）The part of the environmental movement that draws my firm's attention is the design of cities. buildings and products. When we designed America's first so-called "green" office building in New York two decades 71, we felt very alone. But today, thousands of people come to green building conferences, and the 72 that buildings can be good for people and the environment will be increasingly influential in years to 73Back in 1984 we discovered that most manufactured products for decoration weren't designed for 74 use. The "energy-efficient" sealed commercial buildings constructed after the 1970s energy crisis 75 indoor air quality problems caused by materials such as paint, wall covering and carpet. So far 20 years. we've been focusing on these materials 76 to the molecules, looking for ways to make them 77 for people and the planet.Home builders can now use materials-such as paints that release significantly _78_ amounts of organic compounds -that don't 79 the quality of the air, water, or soil. Ultimately. 80_, our basic design strategy is focused not simply on being "less bad" but on creating 81 healthful materials that can be either safely returned to the soil _82_ reused by industry again and again. As a matter of _83, the world's largest carpet manufacturer has already _ 84_"_ a carpet that is fully and safely recyclable (可循环用的).Look at it this way: No one __85 out to create a building that destroys the planet. But our current industrial systems are } 86 causing these conditions, whether we like it or not. So 87_ of simply trying to reduce the damage, we are _88_ a positive approach. We're giving people high-quality, healthful products and an opportunity to make choices that have a 89 effect on the world. It's not just the building industry, either. 90_ cities are taking these environmentally positive approaches to design, planning and building.

The dance of the honeybee communicates the location of flowers 70 other members of the hive(蜂群). But human language permits communication about anything. 71 things like unicorns(独角兽)that have never existed. The key 72 in the fact that the units of meaning, words, can be 73 together in differentways, according to 74 , to communicate different meanings.Language is the most important learning we do. Nothing 75 humans so much as our ability to communicate abstract thoughts, 76 about the university the mind, love, dreams, or ordering adrink, It is an immensely complex 77 that we take for granted. Indeed, we are not aware of most78 of our speech and understanding. Consider what happens when one person is speaking to 79 .The Speaker has to translate thoughts into 80 language. Brain imaging studies suggest that thetime from thoughts to the 81 of speech is extremely fast. Only seconds! The listener must hearthe sounds to 82 out what the speaker means.

Mood may be defined67 a temporary and mild positive or negative feeling that is generalized and not tied 68any particular circumstance. Moods should be 69 from emotions which are usuallymore intense, 70 to specific circumstances, and often conscious. 71 onesense, the effect of a consumer’s mood can be thought of in 72 the same way as canour reactions to the 73 of our friends—when our friends are happy and “up”, thattends to influence us positively, 74 when they are “down”, that can have a 75impact on us. Similarly, consumers operating under a 76 mood state tend to react tostimulate（刺激因素）in a direction 77 with that mood state. Thus, for example, weshould expect to see 78 in a positive mood state evaluate products in more of a 79 manner than they would when not in such a state. 80 , mood states appear capable of 81 a consumer’s memory.Moods appear to be 82 influenced by marketing techniques. For example, the rhythm, pitch, and 83 of music has been shown to influence behavior such as the 84 of time spent in supermarkets or 85 to purchase products. In addition, advertising can influence consumers’ moods which, in 86 , are capable of influencing consumers’ reactions to products.67. A）as B）about C）by D）with68. A）over B）under C）to D）up69.
