Read the following paragraph and underline the topic sentence.The most vital difference between Muslims in America and their brothers in Europe is the U.S. enduring emphasis on religious liberty. Religion is given far more respect in the U.S. than in Europe. Think about it. The U.S. is in the midst of a resentful debate over immigration in which many Americans reject “hyphenated (带连字符的) identifies”like Mexican-American as a threat to national unity. Yet while Protestant, Catholic and Jewish Americans may disagree strongly among themselves, the religious basis of their identity is not seriously questioned by anyone. If Muslim Americans are not so readily accepted today, it is not because they are believers. In Europe, by contrast, Muslims are resented and marginalized precisely because their religion threatens strong secular (世俗的) values.18. Read the following paragraph carefully and select the best topic sentence from the four possible answers that follow the paragraph. Write the letter of your choice in the blank provided. Topic Sentence: _____________ These memories of mine have been collected slowly, over a period of years. Some readers, finding them in a magazine, have taken them for stories. The assumption that I have “made them up”is surprisingly prevalent (流行的), even among people who know me. I do not understand the reason for these doubts. Can it be that the public takes for granted that anything written by a professional writer is necessarily untrue? The professional writer is looked on perhaps as a “story-teller”, like a child who has fallen into that habit and is mechanically scolded by his parents even when he protests that this time he is telling the truth.A. I am essentially a story-teller.B. I am often accused of telling lies.C. The fact that I am a professional writer is often doubted by my readers.D. The memories of mine are often taken as stories by some of my readers.IV. 重新组合段落( 5 points, 1 point each )Rearrange the following numbered sentences so that they will be read logically.

My father had taught me, on his lap, before I started school - A Child’s, Garden of Verses, and Eugene Field, his favorite poet.21. I remember a storybook, which soon disappeared, about some Belgian children along a canal escaping from Germans.22. At any rate, these are all the books I recall from my childhood household.23. From an early time, I had been a great reader.24. A few volumes had come with us, I think, from Seattle to Minneapolis, but they were for looking at the pictures on the living-room floor while a grown-up watched, not for reading.25. But after our parents’death, almost no books were permitted.26. Was it to save electricity, or because books could give “ideas” that would make us too big for our boots?V. 标出与段落内容无关的句子( 10 points)Read the following paragraph and cross out the TWO irrelevant sentences.It was mid-June the morning we graduated, and I fainted in the huge hall for the Commencement (毕业典礼) from the heat. Afterwards Frani’s parents took several of us to lunch at the Silver Swan. My grandparents had not come for the occasion, but sent me a check for a trip to Europe —that was a graduation present, and a wedding present as well, he wrote. Yes, the decision of marriage had eventually been made. We had already had an interview with the curate (牧师助理), and it was exactly one week after the Commencement and my twenty-first birthday when we “stood up” together in the chapel. John told me that I would never become a good actress. We had a one-night honeymoon at an inn in Briarcliff, and there all of a sudden I had an attack of panic. As we climbed into the big bed, I knew, too late, that I had done the wrong thing. To marry a man without loving him, which was what I had just done, not really perceiving it, was a wicked action, I saw. Stiff with remorse and terror, I lay under the thin blanket through a good part of the night.VI. 写信(40 points)Write a letter according to the following situation: you came across a piece of news from China Daily that Zhaoyang High School in Gansu Province is recruiting English teachers. You (Li Ming), an English major going to graduate next summer, decide to apply for it. In the letter, make sure to include your devotion to education, your enthusiasm to work in the Northwest of our country, and your qualifications for the job.

自考真题英语作文I woke up this morning feeling completely exhausted.It's like I didn't even sleep at all. I guess I must have been tossing and turning all night. I really need to figure out a way to get better rest.I stumbled into the kitchen and made myself a cup of coffee. I don't usually drink coffee, but today Idefinitely need it. I can already feel the caffeinestarting to kick in. Maybe today won't be so bad after all.I glanced at the clock and realized that I was running late. I quickly threw on some clothes and grabbed my bag. I really need to start getting up earlier so I'm not rushing around every morning.As I walked to the bus stop, I couldn't help but notice how beautiful the weather is today. The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and there's a gentle breeze in the air. It's days like this that make everything seem a little bitbetter.I arrived at work and immediately got bombarded with a million different tasks. It's going to be a long day. I really need to find a way to manage my time better so I'm not constantly feeling overwhelmed.At lunchtime, I decided to take a walk outside. I needed a break from the chaos of the office. As I strolled through the park, I couldn't help but feel a sense of peace wash over me. Sometimes all it takes is a little fresh air to clear your mind.The rest of the day seemed to drag on forever. I can't wait to go home and just relax. Maybe I'll take a hot bath and read a good book. That sounds like the perfect way to unwind after a hectic day.Finally, the workday is over and I can head home. As I walk through the door, I can feel the stress melting away. I'm so glad to be done with today. Now I can focus ontaking care of myself and getting the rest I so desperately need.。

Masks are very useful. At Halloween, children wear masks for fun; they may, of course, also think they are disguising themselves, but chiefly their motive is to experience the joy of saying “ boo” to someone. Soldiers wore masks for protection, in ancient times against swords and battle-axes, in more recent times against poison gas. Bank robbers wear masks to disguise themselves, and though of course this disguise is a sort of protection, a robber 's reason for wearing a mask is fairly distinct from a soldier 'Alsl . of these reasons so far are easily understood, but we may have more trouble grasping the reason that primitive people use masks in religious rituals. Some ritual masks seem merely to be attempts to frighten away evil spirits, and some seem merely to be disguises so that the evil spirits will not know who the wearer is. The masks are usually made of paper. But most religious masks are worn with the idea that the wearer acquires, through a union with supernatural powers, a new identity, and thus in effect becomes—really becomes, not merely pretends to be —a new person.VI. 写信(40 points)Write a letter to your friend according to the following situation: Y ou(Weiping) haven 't heard from your friend(Zhijie) since the SARS outbreak.

自考试卷：英语写作基础21年10月自考试题及答案题目一题目要求：以“The Impact of Social Media on People’s Daily Lives”为题，请你用英语写一篇短文，分析社交媒体对人们日常生活的影响，并阐述你的观点。

答案：In today’s digital era, social media has become an integral part of people’s daily lives. The impact of social media on our lives is undeniable and has both positive and negative aspects.First and foremost, social media has revolutionized the way we communicate and connect with others. It provides us with convenient platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, where we can easily stay in touch with friends, family, and even strangers from around the world. We can share our thoughts, experiences, and photos instantly, bridging the gap of distance and time.Moreover, social media has also transformed the way we obtain and consume information. With just a few taps on our smartphones, we can access news, articles, and opinions from various sources. This immediate access to information hasempowered individuals to be more informed and aware of the world around them. However, it also poses the challenge of distinguishing reliable and accurate information from misinformation and fake news.On the other hand, the influence of social media on people’s daily lives has its downsides. One major issue is addiction. Many people find themselves addicted to constantly checking their social media feeds, seeking validation through likes and comments. This addiction can negatively impact productivity, relationships, and mental health. It is important for individuals to strike a balance and not let social media consume their entire lives.Another negative aspect is the potential for social media to create a false sense of reality. People often present an idealized version of their lives, sharing only the highlights and filtering out the struggles and challenges. This can lead to feelings of inadequacy and a constant need to compare oneself to others.In conclusion, social media has undoubtedly had a significant impact on people’s daily lives. It has changed the way we communicate, obtain information, and perceive ourselves and others. While it offers numerous benefits, it is important for individuals to be mindful of its potential drawbacks and use it in a balanced and responsible manner.题目二题目要求：请你给一封英语的邮件，邀请你的外国朋友来中国旅游，并告诉他/她一些有关中国文化和旅游景点的信息。
