第2题：
C
You speak, write a letter, make a telephone. Your words carry a message. People communicate with words. Do you think you can communicate without words? A smile on your face shows you are happy or friendly. Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad.
When you put up your hands in class, the teacher knows you want to say something or ask questions. You shake your head, and people know you are saying "No". You nod and people know you are saying "Yes". Other things can also carry messages. For example, a sign at the bus helps you to know which bus to take. A sign on the door helps you where to go in or out. Have you ever thought that there are a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time? People can communicate in many other ways. An artist can use his drawing to tell beautiful mountains, about the blue sea and many other things. Books are written to tell about all the wonderful things in the world and also about people and their ideas. Books, magazines, TV, radio and films all help us communicate with others. They can help us to know what is going on in the world and what other people are thinking about.

问答题Nowadays more young people can enjoy university education than in the past, but they are faced with another problem: job hunting. Most graduates find it hard to find a satisfactory job, and some have to stay jobless for several years. What do you think may have caused this problem? Write a composition of about 400 words to explain your point of view. The title has been provided for you.Problems in university students' job hunting In the first part of your writing you should present your thesis statement, and in the second part you should support the thesis statement with appropriate details. In the last part you should 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 above instructions may result in a toss of marks.正确答案：
Problems in university students' job hunting Many years ago, most young people could not go to university because university only accepted a small amount of students. To their delight, young people now find it easier to go to university, but to their dismay, they also find it harder to find jobs. How come university students, who are intelligent, ambitious and knowledgeable, have difficulty in finding jobs? There are several reasons to account for this problem.
One important reason is that nowadays university students pursue too high a goal. Most of them dream to work in office buildings, and hold contempt for jobs in places where things are made or sold. Some care too much about some minor factors, such as salary, location or comfortableness of the working place. Because of these, students usually narrow down their selections, thus making it harder to find a proper job. For example, most students want to work in cities or in coastal areas, such as Shanghai, Beijing or Guangzhou. Although talents are badly needed in some western provinces, the graduates are unwilling to go there. This naturally makes it hard to find a job in some areas and hard to find a talent in some other areas.
Another reason is that the majors some students study in universities do not fit in with the demands of the vacant jobs. As the society is developing so quickly, university cannot catch up with it and offer courses to satisfy all requirements. Besides, there are some majors where not many graduates are needed but are admitting many students each year. When these students graduate, they may find that there are almost no vacancies that really need their knowledge. Majors like history or philosophy are examples of this type.
The last reason is that some employers raise too strict requirements on graduates. Because students stay on campus, most of them do not have time to work. But most companies just want to employ people with at least two-year working experience. This can keep many students from applying for the jobs. Some employers also just want boys, and then the girls will lose the chance of applying for the jobs.
From the above discussion, we can see that students, universities, and employers should all be responsible for the problems in the job market. To solve the problem, graduates should hold reasonable expectations, university should offer courses to meet the latest requirements of the society and flexibly adjust admission policy, and employers should raise sensible requirements on candidates. If all these three parties make joint efforts, university students will soon find that finding a job is not as hard as they expected.解析：

问答题Test 13 We are now living in a society of severe competition. Students need to compete for better school; companies compete for better products and more customers. Many people neglect the role of cooperation. What do you think of the relationship between competition and cooperation? Write on ANSWER SHEET TWO a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:COMPETITION AND COOPERATION You are to write in three parts. In the first part, state specifically what your idea is. In the second part, provide one or two reasons to support your idea OR describe your idea. 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.正确答案：
【参考范文】
It is often believed that competition and cooperation are in opposition to each other. We are now living in a society of severe competition. Students need to compete for better schools; companies have to compete for better products and more customers. And there is constant competition for jobs, fame, and wealth and so on. Cooperation is often neglected by many people. Here I would like to say that both competition and cooperation play an important role in social progress.
Competition is the impetus of the constant development of the human society. The pressure of competition can force people to try their best and give people a sense of the pursuit of excellence. Without competition people would be satisfied with their present condition and society would not advance. A strong desire to succeed and do better than others inspires us to work harder. However, we also need to know the importance of cooperating with others. It’s unimaginable for an individual to live without society. In many cases, people need to cooperate with each other to overcome difficulties. Mere competition may lead to failure.
To succeed in life, we must learn that both com- petition and cooperation are indispensable. Competition will make us always be active to create while cooperation gives us the possibility of working together to overcome obstacles.解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题In the past few decades,“generation gap” has become a quite popular phrase, signifying the barrier between parents and children. But what has caused the barrier, why do people living together disagree with each other? Write a composition of about 400 words on the following topic:Who Has Dug The Generation Gap? In the first part of your writing you should present your thesis statement, and in the second part you should support the thesis statement with appropriate details. In the last part you should 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 above instructions may result in a loss of marks.正确答案：
Who Has Dug the Generation Gap? Since its invention, the phrase generation gap has spread all over the world in almost an instant. In the past few decades, although human beings are striving toward more common goals, the gap between parents and children seems to be widening. It is high time that we thought about the causes of this prevailing trouble.
The most important reason is that parents and children hold different values. With the constant development of technology, social values are also undergoing continuous changes. Because parents and children belong to quite different times, they naturally belong to different value groups, and this in turn leads to the barrier between different generations. For example, our parents living in the 1960s think that people should cherish their membership in their groups, and should adapt themselves to their groups, but we emphasize individual values and are ready to leave our groups at any moment in search of a better one. It is unlikely for people holding different values to agree on everything in life, and the barrier is, therefore, also unavoidable.
Another important reason for the generation barrier is lack of communication. A good talk can sometimes dissolve the disagreement between people with different values, but the trouble is that there is not enough communication. With the ever increasing pressure in work and life, parents are spending less effort and time with children; the children, faced with heavy study load or various distractions such as IV plays and computer games, are also spending less time with their parents. This results in a lack, or an inability, of communication when it is necessary.
Besides these two general reasons, there may be some special cases. According to a recent report, about 5 per cent of generation gap results from irresponsible parents. Some parents, especially those without good education, tend to evade the duty of raising and caring their children. The same report also reveals that about 3 percent of the problem results from problematic children who consistently refuse parents~ help. This type of cases represents only a small portion, but the problem is often more serious.
In a word, except for some special cases, barriers come into being either because the two parties involved embrace too different values or because they are not talking to each other often enough. After finding out the reasons, we may know that it is wrong to blame parents or children for the barriers, and we should mainly encourage communication, for if parents and children can talk to each other more, barriers will have less opportunity to stay.解析： 本文要求分析父母与子女之间产生隔阂的原因，属于因果关系的说明文。文章引言段采用了开门见山的方式，直接以代沟开始。Thesis statement用的是It is high time that we thought…，婉转但仍然达到了目的。正文段的衔接词很好地体现了各要点间的主次关系，用得非常恰当。结论段虽然提到三个要点，其实质是在强调前面两个，更强化了文章的衔接。因为是谈问题的原因，所以结尾处的最终评论就采用解决方法，非常自然协调。 -

问答题At present, people obtain most of their information from news reporting. However, some people think that we should not believe what journalists report. What is your opinion? What qualities do you think a journalist should have? Write a composition of about 400 words on this topic. In the first part of your writing you should present your thesis statement, and in the second part you should support the thesis statement with appropriate details. In the last part you should 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 above instructions may result in a loss of marks.正确答案：
Currently, news reporting is one of the major channels by which people become informed of various affairs around the globe. However, some people believe that the journalists who furnish the reports do not deserve any trust. For my part, I agree to this viewpoint for the following reasons.
Firstly, many journalists fabricate sensational incidents in order to make themselves eye-catching and prominent. Reporters, like many people in other occupations, now feel the fierce competition in their own circle. Consequently, some of them, to survive the competition, deliberately exaggerate or whitewash certain matters to gain the upper hand over their colleagues. Their reports are certainly not dependable.
Secondly, some journalists will say anything to flatter a certain enterprise, as long as they are given a considerable sum of money by the owner of the enterprise in question. Such news people have no respect for their own profession, and will doubtlessly win no trust from their readers.
Thirdly, if a journalist works for a profit-bent mass media, he will find furnishing sensational news stories a must. To increase the circulation of the newspaper or magazine which they work for, or to lure more viewers and listeners for the broadcasting organization where they earn a salary, they have to write something that can attract people. If they want to reach this goal quickly, they find it necessary to make up some parts of their reports or simply invent a news story, which can help them to stir a sensation among people. As the circulation gets bigger, or more people tune in their programs, more advertisers will come. That means a greater profit for their bosses and a higher income for themselves.
Last but not least, some newspersons have no idea of the rule that news should be based rigorously on facts. Sometimes they just pick up some interesting hearsay. And then their active imaginations are brought to bear, so that a touching or enchanting story is mistaken for news. This kind of story can be an entertainment, but can never be taken as something true happening in the world.
All in all, many news reports cannot be counted upon. However, if reporters or journalists strictly abide by their professional requirements and nurture professional qualities, namely being honest, righteous, insightful, and farsighted, and having a strong sense of justice and social responsibility, readers and reporters will have more mutual trust, and the world will surely be a better place.解析：

问答题Many people hold the view that money is everything. What do you think? Write a composition of 400 words on the following topic, expressing your views on the importance of money. HOW IMPORTANT IS MONEY? In the first part of your writing you should present your thesis statement, and in the second part you should support the thesis statement with appropriate details. In the last part you should 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 above instructions may result in a loss of marks.正确答案：
HOW IMPORTANT IS MONEY? No one would deny that money is unimportant. There are certain things that human beings need—food, shelter, perhaps medical care—and these things cost money. But if one has enough money to live on, to pay for the basic essentials of life, is it important to have a lot more money than that? Will your life improve in proportion to the amount of money that you have? Money is important but it does not guarantee happiness.
There is no denying that money can buy a lot. Maybe you do not need much money to pay for simple shelter, but how about if you want a nice, big apartment in a nice neighborhood, or if you want to buy a house? The fact is that people do get on each other's nerves if they are crowded together in a small space, and that a married couple or members of a family are likely to get along better if they are not constantly tripping over each other and asking each other not to be so noisy—if each can find a little privacy from time to time. A big apartment or a house will allow them this privacy.
It is nice to get a little pleasure out of life, a little fun from time to time. Unfortunately, many of the fun things that you can do today cost money. Films, concerts, gyms are available to you only after you have bought the tickets. Delicious food in a restaurant can only be tasted after you have paid for it. Some people believe America is the most fantastic place in the world, while some say it is the hell. Why do their opinions vary so greatly? Because the latter do not have enough money to take advantage of many attractions there.
However, is money the road to happiness? Not really. Large number of people work every day, work overtime, work weekends, and make a lot of money. Are they happy?. No. They have no time to form or to maintain friendships. Enjoying means taking things in, taking the time to see, to hear. But unfortunately, many people simply do not take the time to do these.
Surely everyone has thought at times, ff only I had a lot of money, I could be the happiest person in the world. It is important to remember, however, that money is only a means to an end, not the end itself.解析：

Personality and Career
1.When you select your career,there's a whole lot more to it than assessing your skills and matching them with a particular position.If you ignore your personality,it will hurt you long-term regardless of your skills or the job's pay.There are several areas of your personality that you need to consider to help you find a good job.
2. There are isolating（使孤立）jobs that will drive an outgoing person crazy and also interactive jobs that will make a shy person uneasy.Most people are not extremes in either direction but do have a tendency that they prefer. There are also positions that are sometimes a combination of the two, which may be best for someone in the middle who adapts easily to either situation.
3.Most jobs these days have some elements of change to them,but some are more than others. If you need stability in your life,you may need a job where the changes don't happen so often.Other people would be bored of the same daily routine.
4.There are people who are happy to spend more than 40 hours a week on a computer,while there are others who need a lot of human interaction throughout the day.Again,these are extremes and you'll likely find a lot of positions somewhere in the middle as well.
5.Some people prefer a smaller setting where you'll get to know almost all the people there fairly quickly to being in a large building with a lot of people you won't know immediately.
6.Anyway,these are a great starting point for you.I've seen it over and over again with people that they make more money over time when they do something they love.It may take you a little longer,but making a move to do what you have a passion for can change the course of your life for the better.Paragraph 2_________

问答题Now Internet has almost become the symbol of information age. Some think that it is a very great invention because by it, they can do many things that were impossible before. But some view Internet with much disapproval because it distracts people's attention rather than help people do things better. What is your opinion about the influence of Internet on the modern society?

In the last part you should 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 above instructions may result in a loss of marks.正确答案：
The Internet and the Modern Society Recently the influence of Internet has attracted much public attention. People worry about the time wasted on it, the damage caused by virus spread on it, and most of all, some violent crimes committed due to the violent games played on it. All these concerns may be reasonable. But if we take a broader perspective, we may find that Internet has had many positive impacts on the modern society.
First of all, Internet has made the access to information more convenient. In .the past, people could get information they wanted through only limited channels, such as newspaper, radio, and television. This means that only a certain amount of people could get the information at a certain time and in a certain place. But now with the help of internet, people can get information no matter when they want. As a researcher has pointed out, information explosion means that people live in the ocean of information, and Internet has been essential to make that true.
Besides, Internet has also made communication more convenient. Sociologists agree that communication is vital to maintain harmonious human relation, but the communication was rather inconvenient in the past despite the continuous improvement of technology. Letters have been so slow as to be nicknamed snail mail; telegraph and telephone may be quicker, but they have been very costly. But now many new communication tools developed on the basis of the Internet, such as e-mail, msn and QQ, have made talking to a person extremely quick, convenient, and virtually free of charge. This will undoubtedly improve the human relation in the modern world.
The most important impact, however, is that Internet has made social interaction more convenient. Before the Internet era, various social institutes had only limited options to choose from if they wanted to reach the public, and naturally the result was usually unsatisfactory. But now in the Internet era, all these institutes can set up their own websites, which can not only provide the public with information but also collect reaction from the public. For example, the government can collect people's opinion about a certain project through the Internet, producers can promote products through Internet, and universities can clarify admission policies through Internet. The result is that Internet can help to bring about a more open, fair and interactive society.
In a word, more convenient social interaction, personal communication and access to information are the three major changes the Internet has made in the modern society. Although there do exist some problems with the Internet, these positive influences certainly are more important. What we should do is to find measures to solve the problems rather than just talk about them. Just as the proverb goes, we should not stop eating for fear of being choked.解析：

问答题What do you know about the English Renaissance?正确答案： Renaissance was the revival of classical literature and artistic styles in European history. It began in Italy in the early 14th century and spread to England in the late 15th century.
The English Renaissance had 5 characteristics:
(1) English culture was revitalized not so much directly by the classics as by contemporary Europeans under the influence of the classics;
(2) England as an insular country followed a course of social and political history which was to a great extent independent of the course of history else where in Europe;
(3) Owning to the great genius of the 14th century poet Chaucer, the native literature was vigorous enough and experienced in assimilating foreign influences without being subjected by them;
(4) English Renaissance literature is chiefly artistic, rather than philosophical and scholarly;
(5) the Renaissance coincided with the Reformation in England. The English Renaissance was largely literary, and achieved its finest expression in the so-called Elizabethan drama. Its finest exponents were Christopher Marlowe, Ben Jonson, and William Shakespeare.解析： 暂无解析 -
第20题：
问答题Some believe that people should never be satisfied with what they have and should always strive for something new and different, but there are also people who believe that those who constantly feel satisfied tend to be happy. What is your opinion? Write a composition of about 400 words on the following topic:Does satisfaction bring happiness? In the first part of your writing you should present your thesis statement, and in the second part you should support the thesis statement with appropriate details. In the last part you should 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 above instructions may result in a loss of marks.正确答案：
Does satisfaction bring happiness? Usually people are unhappy because they are not satisfied with what they have got. But do you think they will be happy if they are satisfied with what they have achieved? This seems a tricky question. Some believe that satisfaction brings happiness, but some believe that dissatisfaction can bring a happy life. If we mean by happiness is continuous improvement of human life, then it is dissatisfaction that brings happiness.
To begin with, dissatisfaction can motive personal development. As human society has been developing at an ever increasing speed since the industrial revolution, people find that there is more and more room to better their life. If they are unhappy with the education they have received, they will try to study on. If they are unhappy with their present jobs, they will try to find one that suits them better. And if they are unhappy with their relationship with others, they will try to improve it or find a better one. Therefore, dissatisfaction encourages people to seek life of a better quality rather than stay with the present one, and this process constitutes their development.
Besides helping individuals to develop, dissatisfaction can also promote the continuous development of the whole society. Common sense tells us that there cannot be a perfect society, therefore, if a society is satisfied with itself, it only means that it is willing to live with its problems. A society with dissatisfaction is in fact one that dislikes problems. It will find and solve the problems, and this will certainly help the society to keep moving forward. We can take China as an example. Chinese people used to believe that satisfaction brings happiness, but they had actually been living a very hard life before the 1980s. The reform and opening-up policy was adopted in the 1980s just because the Chinese were no longer satisfied with the society at that time. Facts show that the change of mentality has brought about thorough changes to the society.
Last but not least, dissatisfaction has also been a driving force of human civilization as a whole. It is reasonable to say that in the primitive society, science came into being because the ancestors were not satisfied with their understanding of the world, and technology came into being because they were not satisfied with working purely with their hands. The curiosity and desire has in fact led to the prosperity of science and technology in later times. Similarly, in the artistic world, new propositions and practices keep emerging because people are not pleased with the existing ways in expressing their feelings and emotions.
To sum up, dissatisfaction has played a vital role in the development of individuals, the whole society as well as human civilization. Although too much dissatisfaction may be harmful, a proper sense of dissatisfaction can be very beneficial. When everybody is pleased with what they have, the world will stop moving forward, which virtually means the end of humankind.解析：
题目中的happiness是一个很模糊的概念，每个人可能都有自己的理解。在引言段中，作者在通过问题引出话题后，先给出“幸福”的定义才明确自己的观点，这样全文的讨论就有了比较坚实的基础。引言段的问题提得自然到位，既抓住了读者的心理，又点出了文章的中心议题。文章的正文段从个人、社会、人类文明三个角度阐述了不满的重要性。这三个要点不仅范围从小到大展开，议题也是从具体到抽象逐步深入。从论据上看，除了逻辑推理外，作者还用了中国社会的发展作例子，具有较好的说服力。文章结论段简洁明了。作者用一个句子做总结，然后用本讨论话题的意义作最终评论。 -

问答题题目要求: In this part of the test, you are asked to give a short talk on a business topic. You have to choose one of the topics from the two below and then talk for about one minute. You have one minute to prepare your ideas.Practice 1 A: What is important when...? Attending an interview ●Punctuality ●Manner ●Appearance B: What is important when...? Working in a team ●Having a team leader ●Deciding people’s responsibilities ●Sharing information正确答案： 【参考范例】
If you choose A:
When attending an interview, it’s a merit that we show up on time. For an interview due to start at nine thirty in the morning, the candidate is expected to arrive five minutes earlier. To be better prepared for the interview, if possible, he’d better pay a visit to the interview site in advance. By doing this, he will be able to figure out the shortest route and the approximate time to get there.
In addition, remember that the interviewer is observing you even before your entrance into the room. Therefore, don’t forget to knock at the door first, no matter whether it’s shut or open. Furthermore, eye contact is necessary. Look straight into the interviewer’s eyes with politeness and self-confidence. At the meanwhile, greet him with a smile
Furthermore, a person who is particular about his appearance is always welcome everywhere. With your hair neatly cut your beard nicely shaved and your face cleanly washed, you are more likely to leave a good first impression. At the same time, arm yourself with a starched shirt, an ironed suit and a pair of polished shoes. By doing that, you’re definitely a pleasant guy in the eyes of both male and female interviewers.
If you choose B:
When working in a team, first of all, a team leader is essential for the team. With the lead of a good team leader, the team can fulfill the tasks smoothly. Without a team leader, there will be no definite direction and employees may not know what to do and how to do the work in co-operation with each other.
Secondly, it is important that every employee knows his/her responsibility. When clear-cut assignment of responsibility, employees can concentrate on their tasks and work more efficiently. As a result, the company’s objective can be eventually achieved.
Thirdly, as a member of the team, every employee is entitled to know any information within the group. Therefore, information should be shared, and by doing this a lot of time and energy can be saved, which may otherwise be used to do much more work.解析： 暂无解析 -
第23题：
问答题PART 3Discussion topics: Children Do you think children today are happier?正确答案： While I think we have to talk about the issue critically. Firstly, I don’t think kids today are happier than before. Kids nowadays have to endure heavy bags and tight schedule and they also have to worry about many things for they have tremendous academic pressure .But they can attend many extra-curriculum classes(or interest classes )and learn many skills such as the piano, dancing and so on. I think they are a little burdened but I also think they are lucky because they have the opportunity to learn so much. Children in the past didn’t have so many chances to learn those things but they have less pressure.解析：
考生可辩证回答这个问题。一方面，现在的孩子和从前相比，有更多的机会学习很多东西，比如各种乐器和舞蹈等。另一方面，他们也面临更大的压力，自由娱乐的时间就相对减少了。
