第1题：
The text is mainly about _____.
［A］ the advantage of having cosmetic surgery
［B］ what kind of people should have cosmetic surgery
［C］ the reason why cosmetic surgery is so popular
［D］ the disadvantage of having cosmetic surgery
正确答案：C本题考查文章主旨。全文首句利用数据（10年和400%）说明现在美容手术很受欢迎。第一段分析了人们做手术的心理原因。第二段表面上在谈论做美容手术的年龄，其实从侧面也说明了人们随着年龄的增长有做手术的需求。第三、四段分别从手术费用和技术发展两个角度分析手术越来越普及的原因。因此，［C］是全文主旨的概括。其他项都是文章某一部分涉及的内容，不足以说明整篇文章的主旨大意，以偏概全，不入选。

You should spend no more than 40 minutes on this task. As part of a class assignment you have to write about the following topic. Millions of people every year move to English-speaking countries such as Australia , Britain or America , in order to study at school, college or university. Why do so many people want to study in English ? Why is English such an important international language? Give reasons for your answer. You should write at least 250 words.
正确答案：I am not surprise when I read in the newspapers that many people move to English speaking countries. I am an engineer in a process control since ten years and I understand the necessity of English language. For example when I read technical English specifications when I meet Japanese industrials to build together some electronic materials or when I go on holidays in Italy where the best way(for me)to communicate is to speak English. Therefore today it"s necessary to learn English and the best way is to study in English as soon as possible when we are at school but also when we have a job. It"s so important to communicate with foreigners because of work. For example: to sell foods in USA to build electronic cards with the Japanese to obtain a certification with FDA(American organization)in order to sell some pharmaceutical products. In fact it"s important for everybody: the workers the visitors the scientists etc... These are the main reason which explain why so many people go to English speaking countries(the best way to learn)and why English is such an important international language(the communication between many the people over the world).

问答题Practice 2 You should spend about 40 minutes on this task. Write about the following topic: Many people are busy with work and do not have enough time to spend with families and friends. Why does this happen? What are the effects of this on family life and society as a whole? You should write at least 250 words.正确答案： 【参考范文】
Imagine that you are in a car parked on the road during rush hour for more than one hour. You may be regretful for wasting such a long time and losing time to get together with family. This question will be the main topic of the following essay; besides, it will also tall about its effects at the same time.
As for those brief-case men and white collar, they have to cope with a lot of issues at work. And thus only leave their families a small amount of time. There are many reasons for this. Firstly, living in modern society, it is impossible to avoid the pressure from both inside and outside. In order to maintain a good public praise or just get a further promotion, people not only care about their own feelings but those of others’ as well. Secondly, the world is full of material stimulation, encouraging people to chase their happiness, materially. Without money, no one can live in society in his most-wanted way. In order to own a satisfactory living standard, they have no choice but work harder. Last but not least, the advances of modern technology enable people to communicate with each other without seeing each other. This is almost a tragedy for mankind. If we spend all our time on the Internet, we will lose so many traditional ways like face-to-face talking and body language.
Also, the influence of this issue should never be neglected for society: Cumulative stress from work becomes the potential health killer. People are easily infected with psychological illnesses like anxiety, eccentricity and insomnia. In addition, due to materialism and realism, society as a whole has easily become money-oriented, where people make judgments of achievements just according to the materials. Finally, over-dependence on telecommunication leads to the lack of recalling traditions and rethinking of the history and culture, which is a shame for civilized people.
Naturally, a profession is fundamental for all modern city dwellers without any question. However, the family is the ultimate destination for them indeed.解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题Topic 5：Should government relief recipients be kept from owning “luxuries”? Questions for Reference: 1. What kind of products will you define as “luxuries”? 2. Should people who receive subsistence allowance from the government be allowed to own luxuries? Why or why not? 3. What do you suggest will be the more “humane” restrictions on those who apply for subsistence allowance?正确答案： 【参考答案】
My name is... My registration number is... My topic is: Should government relief recipients be kept from owning “luxuries”?
My name is my registration number is my topic is: Should government relief recipients be kept from owning “luxuries”?
I have known from newspapers that one local government has declared that government relief recipients are not allowed to buy “luxuries” such as cell phones and computers. Once violated, the subsistence allowance will be halted. It has caused withdrawn debate among the Public. The supporters say that limited financial resources should be used where they are most needed and those who can afford top-grade commodities have no right to the subsistence allowance. Nevertheless, the opponents insist that purchasing something they think necessary is personal freedom and should not be interfered. As far as I am concerned, government relief recipients shouldn’t be kept from owning such “luxuries”. My reasons are as follows:
Firstly, I agree that it is personal freedom [or people to decide what to buy, even for the poor. How recipients use the money is their own business in which the government has no right to interfere despite its role as the provider of the relief.
Secondly, cell phones and computers are currently becoming the daily necessities for the majority of the average people, including the poor. They can help o improve people’s living standards and shake off poverty.
Thirdly, we are now living in a modern age. Information technology is developing fast with each passing day. We all need to try our best to keep up with the time.
Finally, I hope that the government will take more active measures to implement the policy of urban subsistence allowance and effectively help those from low-income families. 解析： 暂无解析 -
第21题：
问答题Some people believe that a college or university education should be available to all students. Others believe that higher education should be available only to good students. Which view do you agree with and why?正确答案：
Most universities require the completion of a secondary, or high school education for admission. They also require proof of academic performance to guarantee that the student has the knowledge and skills needed to successfully complete their higher education. I believe that if a student has a poor academic record through their primary and secondary education,they should not be allowed to attend university.
In the first place, a university education should be considered a privilege, not a right. A consistent effort must be made through the first two lower stages of a person’s education in order for them to earn the right to study in university. When I was in high school, I saw many students skip class regularly to shop, smoke drugs, or just because they “didn’t feel like” going to class. The obvious result was low grades. These students were all at least 17 or 18 years old, old enough to understand the value of their education. However, they did not value their secondary education and therefore,in my opinion, should not have the opportunity to study in university.
In the second place, because education is cumulative, a student must work consistently through primary and secondary school to master facts and establish a foundation of knowledge in order to meet the demanding academic requirements of university courses. In primary and secondary school, students have the opportunity to develop their writing skills and analytical abilities, both essential to learn to cope with the challenges of higher learning. For students without the appropriate skills,success is unlikely. One university I attended published statistics showing a 50% dropout rate for first year students; the main reason listed was that the students were unprepared for the rigor of university life.
In the third place, the limited educational resources at present in China make it almost impossible to provide every student with a college or university education. This means that students have to fight for their admission to the colleges and universities. As long as the present competition for higher education goes, it is not realistic to talk about letting every student have higher education. Competition for a successful walk through the single—plank bridge of college entrance examination is the most fair way to determine that privilege to higher education in China.
Many people take their education for granted. In my high school, most people only needed to make a little effort to maintain an A or B average, but there were still many people who weren’t willing to make any effort at all. I am sure that these people without proven track records should not, have the privilege of attending university’ especially when higher education resources are not abundant.解析：
文章引文段作者用I believe that…明确表明了论点，即初等和中等教育阶段成绩差的学生不应被大学录取。正文部分作者从三方面论证自己的观点：高等教育应该是特权，而不是权利；上大学应该具有足够的知识积累；中国的现状不允许给每个人都提供高等教育。在论据方面用到了逻辑推理、举例、列数字等方法。文章结尾部分简洁明了，与首段形成了照应。 -
