2020年大学英语四级作文预测范文:网络的利弊预测作文话题:The Internet1. 有人认为网络能够让学习、工作更有效率2. 有人却认为网络让青少年沉迷,影响学习3. 我的看法作文范文:The InternetIn the era of information and technology, the Internet plays an important role in oursociety. However, people’s opinions are still divided on this point. Those who are in favor of the Internet claim that it has a lot of advantages. Firstly, information searching is no longer a tough job with the help of all kinds of search engines. Secondly, we can contact friends or business partners via e-mails or software such as Internet Meeting and Yahoo Messenger.Those who are opposed to the Internet hold that its disadvantages are numerous. In the first place, using the Internet costs considerable time, money and energy,especially for those with poor self-control. In the second place, increasing young people are indulged in online games and unhealthy information, which are extremely harmful to their development.In my opinion, its pros outweigh the cons. The past twenty years have witnessed the fast development of the Internet along with the national economy. A brighter future is awaiting us if we make good use of the Internet.。
四级英语作文预测范文(十五篇精选)文凭与知识Directions: Write a composition entitled Knowledge and Diploma. You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chiness.1.目前,在社会上有这样的一种说法,文凭越高越吃香;2.而有些人则认为文凭不等于知识;3.你的观点。
参考范文:Knowledge and DiplomaWith the development of the society, more and more people enroll in the postgraduate examination for getting a higher diploma.Most companies are inclined to hire the people with high diploma.However,is it really true that high diploma equals to high ability or profound knowledge? Some people do not agree on this kind of idea.They claim that ability or knowledge means more than diploma.Take Bill Gates, the head of the microsoft,for example,he does not have an MBA degree which is believed to play a vital role in the success in commercial life. Furthermore,Sam Walton of Wal-Mart Stores Inc. does not have an MBA degree,but he is the most successful man in the business community.In my opinion,diploma is not equal to knowledge.A diploma is a piece of paper which establishes your education degree.But your ability and the real knowledge come from yourhard work and endowment.If you got a diploma by dishonest behavior,no matter how high a diploma it is,it is just a piece of paper,and you are as blank as that paper.随着社会的发展,越来越多的人为获得更高的学历而参加研究生考试。

英语四级预测作文范文01择业注意事项(Things to Consider in Applying for a Job)many students consider applying for job very important after graduation. they think it will affect their course of lives, their circle of friends, and even their choice of spouses in the future. the following are two suggestions that you should consider when looking for a job. first, you should have an awareness of yourself, your personal interests in particular. generally speaking, your interest supplies your motivation and energy for work. if you don't have any interest in the job, you are sure to be bored by it even if it is a highly paid one. second, you should have knowledge of the job itself. the job you are looking for should neither be beyond your reach nor should it be too easy. instead, it should bring your abilities into full play. going to work that is too difficult may only lead to frustration and failure. going to work that is too easy, however, will be a waste of your knowledge, and you will soon lose interest in it. besides, you should think of the prospect of the job. will you have a promising future if you take the job? do not be misled by the present salary it offers. think of its future development. it is important to weigh the immediate advantages against the long term prospects of the job.at this point, it is always advisable that you turn to your parents, your teachers, and your friends for help if you cannot make the decision. they are the people who know you the best. you can also ask some job advisors for advice. they are usually experienced and can give you some valuable hints. of course, it is you who have to make the final decision.英语四级预测作文范文02怎样面对压力(How to Deal with Stress)stress is a state of being upset that happens when we are under pressure. both our feelings and our bodies get upset. we can even get emotionally and physically sick if we have too much stress for too long.stress can come at us from every direction.for instance, it can come from fights with other people. it can come when we have too many things to do and too little time to do them. it can also come when we do not have enough money to pay for what we want.since stress can make us sick, we have to learn how to deal with it. there are good ways and bad ways to do so. we should deal with stress in good ways, of course. good ways to cut down on stress include changing our lifestyles. for example, we can learn either to get along with people or to stay away from them. we can decide what to do now, what to do later, and what to leaveoff doing forever. we can also figure out how to get money or we can cut down on what we want.we should not deal with stress in bad ways because bad ways to cut down on stress just lead to more troubles, for example, skipping out and leaving our work undone, blaming our problems on someone else, stealing or cheating.英语四级预测作文范文03就业时选择高薪还是好的职业(Do You Prefer High Salary or A Promising Job?) when it comes to the choice of career, some people prefer the job with high salary. why?their reasons run as following: to begin with, high salary can bring them happy life; in addition, with high salary, they can do whatever they want.but some others prefer to choose a job with promising future. they base their choice on the following reasons: on one hand, a promising job itself means a raise and promotion in the future; on another hand, job with a bright future will bring them honor and sense of pride.as for me, if I’m left to make the choice, I’ll not hesitate to choose a promising job. first of all, i appreciate the honor and challenge it brings to me. at the same time, if i work hard, it will offer me a lot of opportunities including high salary, good position, etc.英语四级作文预测041. 一次性用品曾广为使用2. 由此带来的问题3. 限制使用一次性用品的意义Limiting the Use of Disposable Products / GoodsDisposable goods were once provided in hotels, restaurants, markets or other public places, which can be called “an era of deposable goods”. Look into your life, how many deposable goods have you been using daily? Countless! Plastic bags were one of the disposable products without which we couldn’t survive.However, disposable products bring serious pollution, massive waste of resources, as well as big damage to people’s health. Millions of square meters of forest are cut down yearly and thrown away as disposable chopsticks. Tons of trash is produced daily with disposable products. And to make things worse, many disposable goods can cause serious health problems for people.Fortunately, the government has realized the problems and taken practical measures to limit the use ofdisposable goods, which can be of benefit to the good health of people and more friendly to the environment.英语四级作文预测051. 近年来网络语言在青少年中很流行2. 人们对这一现象看法不同3. 我的看法Internet SlangInternet slang such as LOL (laughing out loud) and ROFL (rolling on the floor laughing) enjoys great popularity among teenagers nowadays. In fact, it becomes so popular that many terms now cross from computer-mediated communication to face-to-face communication. Some teenagers even use them in essay writing.People have different opinions towards this phenomenon. Some people say that it will help enrich the language system and make language diverse. But others disagree, saying that these new words, being abbreviations for existing, long-used phrases, don’t “enrich” anything; they just shorte n it and their total effect on language will be trivial.In my opinion, Internet slang has little effect on language in general, but will greatly influence individuals’, especially teenagers’ language development. The reason is that overuse of Internet s lang will lead to the lack of proper punctuations and grammar and has numerous misspellings in writing. That will drastically reduce chances of employment when students graduate and seek jobs. So, for the sake of their future, teenagers had better refrain from Internet slang.英语四级预测作文范文06On Privacy of Famous People1. 许多媒体都热衷于揭露名人的隐私2. 出现这种现象的原因3. 我的看法On Privacy of Famous PeopleIn recent years, many newspapers and magazines focus on the activities of film stars, pop singers and some other celebrities. Reporters disguise their identities, infiltrate the subject’s business and family, or even bug and wiretap them to get the news by whatever means.It is not difficult to explain the reason for the reporters’ great interest in celebrities’ priv ate lives. What matters to a newspaper or a magazine is the number of readers. A large readership means the rise in the circulation of their publications, hence a huge profit. Since celebrities are newsworthy figures, and their stories draw far more attention than those of ordinary people, it is natural that the press tries to feature private lives of celebrities.In my view, famous people are also citizens. They have the right to keep their own privacy like ordinary people — their privacy should be respected, protected and guaranteed by laws under all circumstances.Therefore, the press should stop invading their privacy.英语四级预测作文范文07Group Purchasing1. 现在团购很流行2. 团购有很多好处,但也有不少问题3. 我的建议On Privacy Group PurchasingIn recent years, a new type of online shopping is rapidly gaining popularity — group purchasing, which was originally introduced from foreign countries but is now widely accepted all over China. People can buy not only goods, but also all kinds of services on group purchasing sites.Group purchasing is very convenient, and saves people a lot of money. But it also has some problems. Since group purchasing is nothing more than another form of online shopping, the nature of it is no different from other online shopping patterns. Problems that exist in online shopping also can be found ingroup purchasing, like deceptive advertisements or poor after-sale services.In my opinion, we should treat group purchasing as a way of shopping and nothing more. We must be careful not to buy something w e don’t need only to follow the fashion.英语四级预测作文范文081. 如今网络时代,网络舆论事件时有发生2. 网络舆论事件逐渐趋多的原因3. 网络舆论事件的影响与效果On Events of Network Public OpinionDo you still remember the “Guo Meimei Scandal” which has aroused national fury and mistrust toward Red Cross Society of China in 2011? However, it was just a start of the influence of network public opinion of China in changing the society. Now, nearly every day or two, there will be a new event heatedly commented by Chinese netizens through online facilities.Actually, network public opinion is the co-product of the interaction between two factors. For one thing, the highly developed internet has brough t the explosion of information to everybody’s life. Each piece of information can potentially be an “event”. For another thing, democratic consciousness has grown stronger in minds of Chinese people. Network is the democratic outlet where their free speech can be fully realized.Now, network public opinion has become the constructive power for a better society, which has been acknowledged by all levels of governments. With overwhelming influence and massive power, it will help a lot in constructing Chinese social equity, including improving Chinese democracy, promoting anti-corruption; bring in judicial fairness, and etc.英语四级预测作文范文091. 洋快餐颇受中国消费者的青睐2. 产生这种现象的原因3. 我的看法The Prevalence of Western Fast FoodFast food is becoming more and more popular in China, especially among children and teenagers. Today, nothing is more representative of the fast pace of modern society than fast food.There are several reasons for its popularity. For one thing, it is fast and convenient. Go into a fast food rest aurant, and your food will be ready in a minute. Precious time won’t be wasted waiting-in-line to order or waiting at your table for your food to serve. For another, its popularity is also attributed to the clean food, the excellent service and the comfortable environment of the fast food restaurants in American style.I think that fast food isn’t healthy enough because it doesn’t compose a balanced diet and is low in nutrition. Fast food is only a good choice when you are in a hurry and we should turn to it only once in a while.英语四级预测作文范文10On Card Slave“卡奴”是指一个人使用大量的现金卡、信用卡,但负担不出缴款金额或是以卡养卡、以债养帐等方式,一直在还利息钱的人。
2020年英语四级作文预测:钱能买来幸福吗最近几天人民币成了世界媒体的头条,因为继美元,英镑,欧元,日元之后,人民币正式成为世界第五大国际货币!为了与这个历史时刻挂钩,新东方在线英语四级频道为大家准备的四级预测作文也跟钱相关呢!作文题目:Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic Can Money Buy Happiness? You should write no less than 100 words and you should base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese) below:1. 有人认为金钱是幸福之本 (source of happiness)2. 也有人认为金钱是万恶之源 (root of all evil)3. 我的看法参考范文:Can money buy happiness? Various people have various answers. Some people think that money is the source of happiness. With money, one can buy whatever he enjoys. With money, one can do whatever he likes. So, in their minds, money can bring comfort, security, and so on. Money, as they think, is the source of happiness.But there are still a lot of others who think that moneyis the root of all evil. Money drives people to steal, to rob, and to break the law. A lot of people became criminals just because they were in search of money. And in the Western countries, there is nothing that can’t be bought by money. Many people lose their own lives when hunting it.I think that money is essential to life and we cannot do without money. But even though money is necessary to life, it can’t buy happiness. Happiness is not something that can be measured by money. It is a state of mind. One can have plenty of money, with which he can buy whatever he wants, and at the same time he is not happy because he is never satisfied or he is troubled by various kinds of problems. Therefore, although money is necessary for a happy life, it can’t buy happiness.。

You should write at least 120 words but no more than180 words.With the popularity of online trading, a growing number of college students are joining the trend of opening online shops.Opinions on whether college students should open online shopsvary. For my part, I entirely approve of the practice.Firstly, opening online shops is a good opportunity for students to put the textbook knowledge into practice. In the process of running online shops, they are required to grasp relevant knowledge in order to make a profit, and thus their later studies will become more purposeful and efficient. Secondly, opening online shops gives the students on campus a chance to equip themselves with adequate skills such as interpersonal skills and problem-solving abilities, which cannot be learned from textbooks but are of great significance. Thirdly, if the online shop works well, students will earn a good income. In view of its marketing mode, even if the online shop fails, students will have nothing to lose.In any case, it’s noteworthy that the prerequisite for college students to open online shops is to ensure that their study will not be interfered with.popularity受欢迎; 普及; 流⾏trend趋势; 趋向; 倾向; 动态; 动向shops商店; 店铺; ⼯⼚; ⼯场; 作坊; 车间; 购物; 采买; 去商店买; 在商店购物; 逛商店; 告发; shop的第三⼈称单数和复数For my part⾄于我,对我来说entirely全部地; 完整地; 完全地approve of对……予以认可In the process of在…的过程中; 正在做make a profit盈利purposeful有意义的; 有⽬的的; 坚毅的; 果断的on campus在校内problem-solving寻求答案; 解决问题great significance重⼤意义textbooks教科书; 课本; 教材; textbook的复数great significance重⼤意义even if即使; 尽管; 纵然have nothing to lose不会损失什么noteworthy值得注意的; 显著的; 重要的prerequisite先决条件; 前提; 必备条件; 必须先具备的,必要的; 先决条件的interfered⼲涉; ⼲预; 介⼊; interfere的过去分词和过去式2020年9⽉英语四级作⽂预测2医疗保健Directions:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay. There are two different viewsabout health care: one is that health care should be free for everyone and the other is that people should pay medical costa themselves. You are to give your own opinion. Write an essay to explain the reasons for your opinion. You should write at least 120 words but no more than180 words.Health care has long been a major concern to the government and the public. When it comes to medical charges, some people think free health care can greatly improve their quality of life. Others argue that covering the medical costs will impose a heavy burden on the government. As far as I’m concerned, people have the right to enjoy free health care.Many remarkable reasons contribute to my view. For one thing, citizens have fulfilled their obligations to pay taxes. In the meantime, they should be entitled to free public services like health care. For another, there are still a great number of people who live under the poverty line but need urgent medical care. Therefore, free medical policy can extend the coverage of medical care to more people and reduce the number of people who risk financial ruin because of medical costs.In summary, each individual should have access to free medical care, which is the basic social welfare. And a greater role for the government to play in health care should be advocated.major主要的; 重要的; ⼤的; 严重; ⼤调的; 少校; 主修课程; 专业课concern影响,牵涉; 与…有关; 涉及; 让担忧; 担⼼,忧虑; 关爱; 关⼼; 重要的事情government政府; 内阁; 政体; 国家体制; 统治,治理,统治⽅式,管理⽅法quality of life⽣活质量covering覆盖层,遮盖物; 装饰性覆盖物; 覆盖某物的⼀块材料; 掩蔽; 遮盖; 盖; 覆盖; 撒上,洒上,溅上; cover的现在分词impose推⾏,采⽤; 强制实⾏; 迫使; 把…强加于; 使接受⾃⼰的意见concerned担⼼的; 忧虑的; 感兴趣的; 关切的; 关注的; 影响,牵涉; 与…有关; 涉及; 让担忧; concern的过去分词和过去式contribute to捐助; 给…投稿; 捐给; 投寄给fulfilled感到满⾜的; 觉得满意的; 满⾜的; 实现; 履⾏; 执⾏; 符合; 具备; 起…作⽤; ⽬的是; fulfil的过去分词和过去式; fulfill的过去分词和过去式obligations义务; 职责; 责任; obligation的复数In the meantime在此期间;其间; 在这期间be entitled to有权做某事,得到public services公共事业; 公营事业; 公益事业; 政府; 政府部门;poverty line贫困线urgent紧急的; 紧迫的; 迫切的; 催促的; 急切的medical care医疗处理individual单独的; 个别的; ⼀个⼈的; 供⼀⼈⽤的; 独特的; 与众不同的; 个⼈; 与众不同的⼈; 有个性的⼈;某种类型的⼈; 古怪的⼈free medical care免费医疗social welfare社会福利advocated拥护; ⽀持; 提倡; advocate的过去分词和过去式2020年9⽉英语四级作⽂预测3⼤学⽣挫折教育的重要性Directions:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the importance of frustration education among college students. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.Each year there are a growing number of college students committing suicide when confronted with setbacks and frustration, which suggests that frustration education is extremely important for college students.First of all, what cannot be ignored is that most college students who are far away from their familiesneed to face challenges alone and may easily get confused and frustrated. Thus, strengthening frustration education can help correctlydeal with negative emotions is beneficial to students’ mental health and encouraging them to take a positive attitude towards their school life. Moreover, frustration is inevitable in our lives. If college students do not learn how to cope with it when they are young, they may encounter more problems in their future careers, such as lack of confidence, difficulties in getting along well with others and unwillingness to try new things, which certainly will become obstacles to their success.In short, frustration education can bring great benefits to students, which should not be neglected at college.committing做出; 犯; ⾃杀; 承诺,保证;suicide⾃杀; ⾃杀性⾏为; ⾃毁; ⾃取灭亡的⾏为; ⾃杀者confronted使…⽆法回避; 降临于; 处理,解决; ⾯对; 对抗; 与对峙;setbacks挫折; 阻碍;frustration懊丧; 懊恼; 沮丧; 令⼈懊丧的事物; 受阻; 受挫; 阻⽌; 挫败suggests建议; 提议; 推荐; 举荐; 使想到; 使认为; 表明;extremely极其; 极端; ⾮常frustrated懊丧; 懊恼; 沮丧; ⽆效的; 没有得到满⾜的; 失意的; 不得志的; 使懊丧; 使懊恼; 使沮丧; 阻⽌; 防⽌; 挫败;strengthening加强; 增强; 巩固; strengthen的现在分词mental health⼼理卫⽣;精神卫⽣encouraging令⼈⿎舞的; 振奋⼈⼼的; 给⼈希望的; ⽀持; ⿎励; 激励; ⿎动; 劝告; 怂恿; 促进; 助长; 刺激; encourage的现在分词inevitable不可避免的; 不能防⽌的;cope with对付…such as例如; 像; 象…这样; 诸如…之类lack of缺少;缺乏;需要unwillingness不愿;推委:obstacles障碍; 阻碍; 绊脚⽯; 障碍物; 障碍栅栏; obstacle的复数benefits优势; 益处; 成效; 福利费; 褔利,奖⾦; 给付,保险⾦; 对有⽤; 使受益;2020年9⽉英语四级作⽂预测4For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on Attend Your ClassesRegularly following the outline below below.

And still there are some students who slip out of the classroom before the class is over. Class attendance has become a thorny problem to both the students and teachers.In fact, it is very important for the students to attend their classes regularly. First, it will ensure you to catch up with the teachers in your learning. That is very helpful to you if you want to do a good job in your study. Second, attending classes regularly is a way of showing respect to your teachers ,too. Your teachers will feel bad if the students do not attend their classes, which in turn will affect their teaching and be no good for the students. Third, attending classes regularly will help to form a good habit of punctuality,which is of great importance for the students to do a good job in the future.Therefore, university students should form the good habit of attending our classes regularly from now on. And some day we’ll benefit from it.2020年9⽉英语四级作⽂预测5阅读的重要性Directions:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay based>“It's called ‘reading’. It's how people installnew software into their brains.”参考范⽂The Importance of ReadingAs is described in the picture, the teacher is telling her student that it is through reading that people install new software, new knowledge in this case, into their brains. I approve of such statement because reading is of great significance in our life.First and foremost, reading is the basic way in which we acquire knowledge of the world. Although we can obtain new information through various means, such as watching TV and surfing the Internet, we still gain most knowledge directly or indirectly by means of reading. Secondly, books are the stepping stones of human progress. Being the record of human history, books show us a world full of knowledge and wisdom. Through reading we can grasp abundant knowledge. In addition, reading is also an important way of recreation. From reading we can get pleasure and relaxation. When we are engrossed in reading, we enter a world of our own, leaving all the troubles behind.To sum up, reading is a necessity in our life. Young people should focus more。

华研外语英语专业四级预测作文20篇Topic 1 网络对生活的影响The Internet-A Blessing or Curse?Nowadays college students often use the Internet for study,shopping, entertainment, and many other things.Some people say that the Internet facilitates students' lives,but others worry that it might affect students' study.In my opinion,the Internet is good for college students when it is used appropriately.The Internet is good for college students.First, students can collect many kinds of information via the Internet.When students find something interesting in the book,but their teacher cannot give them more details or answer all their questions in class,they can search the Internet after class to find the details or answers by themselves.Second, the Internet keeps students updated with what is happening all over the world.Just by browsing the web-page,students can read a lot of news.They can also type on some key words to search and follow any affairon the Internet.They don't have to search piles of newspapers and thus save much time for study.In one word, the Internet facilitates students' lives when it is used reasonably.Now more and more college students are becoming aware of the convenience and the importance of using the Internet.Topic 2 电子词典VS 纸质词典Will Electronic Dictionaries Kill Printed Dictionaries?Many people today prefer to use electronic dictionaries rather than printed ones, because electronic dictionaries are much lighter and smaller and easier to be taken everywhere. Some people worry that printed dictionaries may disappear one day. But I believe that electronic dictionaries will not kill printed ones.First, printed dictionaries are much cheaper than the electronic ones. Many students, who use dictionaries most often, can hardly afford anexpensive electronic dictionary. Therefore, the printed ones are exactly what they need. Second, scholars prefer printed dictionaries to electronic ones. Holding a thick, heavy dictionary is what a teacher used to do,and I believe that they will like to keep this habit. Third, only the printed dictionaries can be collected into libraries or be put on our private bookshelves.We may use an electronic dictionary very often, but we will never collect it, since it's designed to be used, not to be collected.Of course electronic dictionaries will be more popular in the future, because they are really convenient. But the printed ones are still needed and will not be replaced. The two kinds of dictionaries are just complementary to each other.Topic 3 对工作应持何种态度?Work as a Part of LifeSome people regard work as the goal of life and spare no pains to pursue a fulfilling career.Others regard work as a means to achieve the value of life, emphasizing the meaning and significance of life itself.I think work is just a part of one's life. To work means to live, and to live must involves work.First, when one works, he also lives. There is not a period of time when one is only working but not living. Therefore when one works hard and feels happy about his achievements, he is also living fruitfully. There is no need to say that he just "lives to work". Second, it is impossible to imagine a life without work. Marx once said that work is the basic need of the human race. Work is not only a breadwinning process, but is also a process of exploring the unknown world, creating beauty, providing help, expressing love, friendship and care. Anyone would hate a life without work, and I think only those who work well enjoy their life best.To conclude, I am firmly convinced that work is a part of life. So enjoy your work, for when you make progress and have fun in your work,you are also enjoying your life.Topic 4 学校教育:传统教育VS 实用科目Should Universities Give Priority to Practical Courses for Students? Because of the demands in the job market, students with "hot" degrees such as computer science or finance are more likely to get a job than students with a "cold" degree like geography. Some people say that universities should give priority to practical courses for students. But I think that traditional courses are equally important and universities should not give priority to practical courses.First, both practical and traditional courses are needed in our country. Students who do well in different courses can help to develop different aspects of our country after their graduation. For example, our society needs not only people who can help to develop economy and technology, but also people who can contribute themselves to literature and education. Second,if universities give priority to practical courses, more students will choose those "hot" degrees. When these students graduate, they will have to fight harder for a job because there will be too many applicants with the same degrees. This will in turn cause an imbalance of supply and demand in the job market.In one word, both practical courses and traditional courses are important,and universities should not give priority to either side.Topic 5 社会道德:是否应该帮助陌生人Should We Help Strangers?We used to appreciate those who like to help strangers. But nowadays people tend to be very cautious of strangers, because they are afraid that helping others can sometimes bring them trouble. In my opinion, we should try our best to help others in a reasonable way.We should try to help others, no matter they are strangers or not. First, helping others is avirtue, and it will make our society more harmonious. Just imagine what a terrible world it would be if everyone was cold-hearted! Second, to some extent, helping others is helping oneself. We may come across some trouble and need others' help some day. If everyone turns a blind eye to our trouble and turns a deaf ear to our appeal for aid just because we are strangers to them, what shall we do at that time? Therefore, we should be glad to help others. However, helping others may sometimes bring us trouble or even put us in danger. So when we are helping others, we should also protect ourselves and offer our help in an appropriate way. For example, to help someone who was robbed, calling the police is a much wiser way than chasing the robbers alone.Topic 6 给在校大学生的几点建议My Advice to the Undergraduates Because of the severe competition in the job market, it's quite difficult to get a decent job fora college graduate. Many college students complain that graduation means the coming of unemployment.To avoid this dilemma, I have some advice to the undergraduates.To avoid unemployment after graduation,the undergraduates have to prepare themselves for the job-hunting long before their graduation. First, study as hard as you can. Surely an applicant with more high marks in his resume will be more likely to get a job. And a hard-working student can acquire more knowledge and pass interviews easily.Second, get a part-time job which is related to the job you want to get in the future. Many college students like to find a part-time job, but most of them do this only for pocket money. Can this part-time job be written into your resume as a related job experience? Can this part-time job bring you new friends who are doing the very kind of job you want to do after graduation? Think it over and make full use of your part-time job.If the undergraduates prepare themselves well for the job-hunting, they will have more chances to find a good job after graduation.Topic 7 正确使用信用卡Will Credit Cards Bring Harm to the Students?Recently, in order to extend business to university campus, some banks offer credit cards to college students. Many people worry that credit cards may do harm to students, while others don't think so. In my opinion, credit cards are good for students if they are used appropriately.First, when a student uses credit cards, he needn't bring much cash with him every day. And the less cash he brings, the less he needs to worry about being stolen. Second, using credit cards can minimize the chances of receiving forged notes. Students are not quite good at distinguishing forged notes, and thus often become victims of coiners. If they use creditcards, it will be very possible for them to avoid receiving forged notes because they don't need to get the changes. Third, using credit cards can help students to know more about "credit". If they don't repay their credit account in time, they will have to pay more interests and what's worse, they will get a bad credit record which will bring inconvenience to them in the future. Therefore, I believe that credit cards will not bring harm to students if used reasonably.Topic 8 如何保持心理健康How to Keep Psychologically Healthy? Nowadays more and more people are concerned about mental health issue. It is reported that the number of people committing suicide is on the rise. Many of them committed suicide just because of some little frustration such as failing an exam. If they had paid more attention to their mental health,they might not have reacted in such an extreme way.How to keep ourselves psychologically healthy?First, we should adjust ourselves to the new conditions. When we go to a university as freshmen, or go to work in a strange city, we may become nervous because everything is so unfamiliar. The only way out is to adjust ourselves to the new conditions and shake off the anxiety quickly. Second, we should know ourselves well and admit that we are just ordinary people. Knowing that ordinary people may not be good at everything, we can easily accept some small failures in our lives. Third, we should try to share our feelings with friends. By doing this, we are assured that any difficulty can be solved since we are not alone.It is very important for us to be psychologically healthy, and we should pay more attention to our mental health.Topic 节食的危害Is Dieting Good or Bad?In order to keep a slim body and to be more attractive in appearance, many people,especially girls, would like to lose weight by eating less. Some people worry that dieting is bad for our health, while others don't agree. In my opinion, dieting is not good for most people. First, dieting is harmful to people's health. It has been proved that if one begins to eat less to keep slim, he or she will be much weaker than those who don't. Young people's bowels must work in an orderly way everyday. If a 20-year-old girl eats less than what her body needs, her metabolism will slow down because there is not so much food to be digested each day. As a result, this young girl will become both physically and mentally slow as a 40-year-old one. How terrible it is! Second, dieting may affect our lives. In this modern society, people need to be very energetic to face severe competitions in their study or work. Dieting will surely reduce their energy and in turn affect their lives badly.In conclusion, I believe that dieting is not advisable for most people, except for those whoare told to do so by doctors.Topic 10 食品安全之我见My Ideas of Cracking down on Poisonous FoodRecently there are a lot of news about poisonous food, such as tainted milk powder, illegal food additives, and illegal cooking oil, which do great harm to people's health. The news has aroused much panic among people, and it's high time that we took measures to crack down on poisonous food.To crack down on poisonous food, I have some ideas to offer. First, the government should make laws to forbid the making of poisonous food. Manufacturers who are caught making these kinds of food should be punished severely, and factories in which these kinds of food are produced should be closed down. Second, food manufacturers must be well informed that they should produce safe food as food safety is their first priority in business. Third, people shouldbe more cautious. When you are shopping food, please remember that natural food is usually safer, better and cheaper than artificial food. And if you think that some brands of food may be poisonous, complain to the related department without hesitation.In one word, only when both the government and citizens take some measures can poisonous food be cracked down on.Topic 11 建议便条April 9Dear Ann,I heard that you are planning to go sightseeing in China, and I want to recommend you a good place.

However, I couldn’t agree with this argumentAdmittedly, translation machines and software bring much convenience for our study and our work. With them, we needn’t bother to leaf through the heavy dictionaries. However, machine translation has its disadvantages.

2020年英语四级作文预测:范文(11)
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a Composition entitled The Prevalence of Western Holidays. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese:
1.我国某些传统节日受到冷遇,而西方节日却日益升温;

The Prevalence of Western Holidays
Many young people in China today prefer Western holidays to traditional Chinese festivals. Christmas is now celebrated by the younger generation all over China, and it has become especially popular as a romantic holiday for boyfriends and girlfriends or young married couples. Valentine's Day is also extremely popular, and even Halloween is being celebrated now.
This phenomenon has actually developed quite naturally in recent decades due to our educational system's focus on English study and therefore on English-speaking cultures. To many students, Western culture has become a symbol of self-expression and freedom from restraint. Celebrating Western holidays has become a way for students to express their love of something different from traditional Chinese culture, and to have fun together with their own generation.
In my opinion, it's fine for students learning English and studying English-speaking cultures to celebrate Western holidays with their teachers and classmates. However, the way
I see it, unless the young people later go abroad to live in those cultures, there is no reason for them to continue to celebrate them. We Chinese should hold on to our traditional festivals, the festivals which we have celebrated for centuries.。
