正确答案：
Nowadays in many nations there are serious school problems—absenteeism, disrespect for teachers, drug abuse, and tardiness. Serious school problems are positively associated with high-risk behaviors of teens: smoking, drinking alcohol, smoking marijuana, and so.
There might be many causes for these various school problems in different cases, but one reason is in common—the student’s attitude. Every single person is responsible for his or her own actions, so do the students. And if one’s attitude is upright, there would be no reason for him or her to misbehave. On the contrary, if a student is experiencing serious school problems, parents and teachers better take a close look into his or her attitude. There must be something wrong with it.
Thus, in order to prevent serious school problems, it is necessary to cultivate a positive attitude in the students. Positive attitude will bring out the best in them and will become the key to their success at school.

第1题：
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：
这道题要求谈论原因，即why it is hard for university students to find a job。作者从学生个人的期望值过高、学校课程陈旧和雇主要求太高三个方面进行了阐述，要点合理恰当。引言段采用对照法开头，用一个问题引出讨论主题，保证了文章中心思想的清晰明了。正文段中，作者按照个人、学校、社会三个方面的顺序安排要点，符合由小到大的顺序，保证了文章的通顺。论据方面，除了推理以外，我们还可以发现很多例子，这就增强了文章的说服力。 -

问答题Practice 6 You should spend about 40 minutes on this task. Write about the following topic: Some people believe that these environmental problems are too big for individuals to deal with, while others think that individuals should take some action. Discuss both views and give your opinion. You should write at least 250 words.正确答案： 【参考范文】
Nowadays, environmental protection has become an urgent task, and who should take the responsibility or more responsibility? Some experts believe that as long as all the citizens take actions on to protect the environment, could the pollution problem be solved. On the contrary, others think that some problems are too big for citizens and the government should take the duty. Personally, the two sides can not be separated.
There are at least three things which are within individual’s reach: Firstly, developing green habits is contributing to the environment. It is a good one to conserve nonrenewable resources in daily routines. Not only should people make full use of the nonrenewable resources but also try to use some alternative ones. Secondly, it is fashionable for young people to follow the new trend called the low-carbon lifestyle. The idea of “low carbon” is to complete daily routines without discharging much waste. Lastly, people can also enhance the green awareness day by day as the society makes progress. If people have environmental-friendly values, they will protect the local surroundings without deliberate reminders.
Individuals, however, can not do everything as their capabilities are limited. Firstly, as for some huge constructions like dams or power stations, it is impossible for individuals to build or even think about them out of the restriction of funds and labors. Furthermore, individuals do not have force to stop illegal damages to the environment. Only if the legislative authorities draw up and put into practice relevant laws can citizens have rules to obey and can the destroyers be punished based on legal grounds. Lastly, citizens can only realize the importance on their own, but there is little chance to popularize these ideas to the public, so the media should make more effort by designing a theme TV program about eco-protection for the general public to have a full awareness of eco-protection.
As is mentioned above, protecting the local environment is the obligation for both individuals and the government. The government should make more efforts and build a platform on which citizens can have the chance to make some contributions.解析： 暂无解析 -

The Best Way to Keep Fit and Healthy A fit and healthy body is the base of wealth and wisdom. Good health enables us to enjoy our life and achieve what we hope for in our career. On the contrary, poor health tends to deprive us of our interest in everything around us. Only by keeping ourselves healthy and strong can we feel energetic and vigorous in studying, working and living a happy life. People aware of the health problems bring up with a lot of ways to keep fit and healthy. However, the best way to keep fit and healthy is to exercise more and eat properly.
Firstly, physical exercise is very crucial in order to keep fit and healthy. In taking part in out-door sports, we are closer to the nature and can take in fresh air. The beauty of nature will keep us clear-headed, which is essential to our health. Secondly, proper nutrition is important for our body, so we have to keep a balanced diet and maintain a regular eating habit. It is important for us to take more fruits and vegetables because they provide vitamins and they help in the process of digestion. At the same time, we should avoid eating too much food rich in sugar and fat.
In conclusion, if we stick to the proper ways of exercise more and eat properly, we’ll lead a healthy life and become as fit as a fiddle.

Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind.—Bertrand Russell in What I Have Lived For正确答案：
Three Passions in Life Bertrand Russell said in his article What I Have Lived For: “Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind”, which I think is the similar to everybody.
If you ask people that what is the most important experience in their life, most people will say love. Love is the basic feeling of everybody and it is love that links people’s hearts together so that they want to spend time with each other and do something, even sacrifice for each other. So the longing for love will take possession of most people for life-long. And when this love extends to the whole human kind, it presents as unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. It is this kind of pity that supports people live out of the long history through unaccountable hardships.
To most people, the search for knowledge will occupy most time of their life. It’s knowledge that separate people from other animals and keeps mankind progressing.
When you are old and look back to review your life, if you find you have spent most of your life for these three things, though I don’t know if it’s successful or not, but I dare to say that your life is meaningful.解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题Practice 5 You should spend about 40 minutes on this task. Write about the following topic: In some countries the average weight of people is increasing and their levels of health and fitness are decreasing. What do you think are the causes of these problems and what measures could be taken to solve them? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience. Write at least 250 words.正确答案： 【参考范文】
Today, more and more countries are experiencing a situation where their citizens are becoming heavier, less fit, and more unhealthy. The causes of this are clear, and there are many possible solutions. I shall look at the causes and a couple of possible solutions in this essay.
In almost all cases, the causes of increased weight are excessive eating and/or lack of exercise. If a person eats more calories than they use, they will certainly gain weight. If they do not exercise enough, this weight gain will become fat and too much fat results in health problems such as obesity and depression. The solutions, therefore, are simple enough—to convince people to consume fewer calories and/or exercise more.
This is easier said than done. Nowadays, more and more people have access to an increasing amount of food. Many people prefer food that is high in calories—perhaps because they think it tastes better or because it is faster and more convenient. One way of getting them to eat fewer calories can be to show them tastier dishes quickly prepared with lower calories.
Another solution is to have people do more exercise, so that the calories eaten are less of a problem. This could be done by reducing the cost of keeping fit and by creating better infrastructure. Financing sports and exercise facilities could be pricey, but there are long-term savings as well as benefits if people are healthier as a result. If every neighbourhood had easily accessible sports and exercise facilities, people would be able to use them much more often.
In conclusion, there are two main causes of weight increase and there are several possible solutions to tackle it.解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题Scientific and technological advances have improved our daily lives. However, in many fields scientists cannot solve the problems they have created themselves. Do you agree or disagree with this opinion? Give your reasons. Write a composition of about 400 words on this topic.正确答案：
Scientific and technological advances have, admittedly, improved people's daily lives and dramatically changed the way people live. People nowadays actually owe a great debt to the inventors who have pushed forward the development of science and technology. However, I am a strong believer in the claim that scientists in many fields cannot solve the problems they have created themselves, for the following reasons :
The creation of a new scientific and technological product is a purely academic matter, but its application may be affected by political, historical and military factors. For example, the original purpose of cloning was simply scientific—to change undesirable genes at the embryo stage, and to alleviate pain and illness of the patients. However, some people with ulterior motives may take advantage of this technique to clone human genes. This is sure to cause serious moral uncertainty and chaos for the human race. The inventors of cloning might have never imagined that the technology is now used for dishonorable purposes, and they can only rely on the government to prohibit human cloning by enforcing strict laws.
Sometimes it is impossible for researchers and scientists to predict the future application of the product they are working on. Atomic energy is a case in point. Its study and research are conducted with the aim of saving the world's limited energy resources and optimizing the use of current energy sources, such as water. Yet people are saddened by the news that atomic technology is used to manufacture dangerous weapons for the purpose of threatening or even destroying other countries and innocent people. For example, to retaliate Japan's attack on its Pearl Harbour, the United States dropped two atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, causing huge mortality and destruction, which were absolutely never dreamed by the scientists who invented the weapon. And once it was put into military use, the inventors could do nothing to change the fearful result.
In conclusion, scientists in many fields find themselves helpless when it comes to controlling the application of the technology they have labored so hard to produce and to solve the problems they have created.解析：
针对“科学家无法解决一些科技进步带来的问题”这一观点，范文作者在第一段末表示赞同。第二、三段具体解释了赞同的原因。首先，科技的应用受到政治、历史和军事因素的影响。其次，科学家不能完全预测产品的未来用途。其中恰当地运用了实例支持分论点。结尾段简洁地总结了中心思想。 -

Please write your composition on the Answer Sheet.正确答案：
Reading is an Excellent Way to Increase Your KnowledgeWe Chinese have a tradition of enjoying reading. In my opinion, reading is an excellent way to increase one’s knowledge.
Firstly, books are the most comprehensive source of knowledge from which we can get all the nourishment we need for our mind. Secondly, books are quite cheap and available everywhere. Finally, reading is the most flexible of all the ways to obtain knowledge. Compared with listening to radio or watching TV, we can read books whenever and wherever we like, and we can read as many times as we wish.
However, there is one problem about reading. There are all kinds of books in the world, good or bad. Good books are beneficial to our soul while bad ones are harmful to our mind. Therefore, it is of great importance for us to separate good plants from wild weeds.解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题Task II（20 points）Directions:Your class has recently had a discussion on violence on television and in films today. Your teacher has now asked you to write a composition giving your opinion on the following statement. Violence on television and in films can make young people behave badly. Please write your composition in no less than 160 words on the Answer Sheet.正确答案：
Nowadays, many violent pictures have appeared on the screen of the televisions and films. Those violent films not only give a strong influence on adults, but also bring a tremendous effect on the young people.
First and foremost, violence on TV or in films is portrayed as vividly as possible in order to attract audience. This will definitely set a bad example for all the audiences who are watching, especially those young children lack of parents’ guidance. Secondly, immature audiences are easily influenced by the violent pictures. They are likely to imitate the violent behavior just because that behavior seems different. This underlies a potential for possible future crime. Thirdly, the violent pictures influence not only the behavior of those immature audiences, but also their minds. They might become aggressive and cold-blooded, which would enhance the violent crime of the society.
In a word, violence on TV or in films plays a bad role for the growth of our teenagers. The government should take measures to control those violence pictures and give our young people a clean growing environment.

The first thing I have to say is that security of the dorms should be improved. Strangers can go in and out freely without any inquiries and checks. Thefts occur from time to time because of the negligence of the dorm management. Secondly, the heating system is frequently out of order and has not been repaired in a timely manner. As a result, quite a few of my roommates have caught colds. And I, too, have also caught a very bad cold.
I sincerely hope that the people in charge of the dorms would take immediate action to solve these problems.

问答题Task II(20 marks) Directions:For this part, you are required to write a composition on The Anti-Addiction System. You should write at least 160 words and please write it on the Answer Sheet. Now in China the anti-addiction system and a “real name checking” system have been adopted in Cyber cafes to prevent players under 18 from becoming addicted to online games. What do students think about this system? What is your opinion about this?正确答案：
The Anti-Addiction System Now in China, the adoption of the anti-addiction system and a “real name checking” system in netbars has led to a heated debate among students.
Some say that students’ self-discipline is very limited and now at least 14 percent of the urban teenage players are addicted to the Internet and some children even repeatedly disappear from home to spend their nights at local Internet cafes, and play truant from school. Therefore, they have failed quite a few school exams. In this sense, the new policy can prevent minors from developing online addiction.
Others claim that the anti-addiction system is only a means to an end and cannot remove the root of the online addiction completely and they believe the key is to guide the minors to improve their self-control and balance their work and play.
In my opinion, the latter point hits home for me because it cuts to the chase. However, education is a long process and takes time, which means before education produces effects on children, some supplementary measures should also be taken to speed up the process and the anti-addiction system is one of them.

问答题Task Ⅱ (20 points) Instructions: Nowadays some university students think they should study further after graduation and then find a job. Do you agree with this or not? State your opinion in 160-180 words, writing your answer on the Answer Sheet.正确答案：
Further Study after Graduation Nowadays the employment of undergraduate students is not so positive, which is partly a result of the world financial crisis. In order to relieve the pressure of employment after graduation, more and more university students think they should study further after graduation and then find a job. I agree with the idea of studying further after graduation for three reasons.
First of all, postgraduate study satisfies the desire of studying a subject in more depth and taking the first step in becoming an academic. To be an academic is also an attractive career.
Second, studying further after graduation for another two or three years may help us relieve the pressure of employment during the world financial crisis. In my opinion, two or three years later, the world financial crisis will be subsided down and the economy will begin to recover. Therefore seeking a job at that time will not be so hard as right now.
What’s more, to do a master degree is to qualify ourselves for a specific career, and to help us stand out from the crowd when applying for jobs. Even if a postgraduate qualification isn’t required for the job we want to do, it can still be a way of standing out in a competitive job market.
In all, if possible, to study further after graduation and then find a job will be a good decision for most university students right now.解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题Writing Task II (20 points) Directions: Write a composition of no less than about 160 words, saying whether you agree or disagree with the following statement and giving examples: The biggest dangers to our health and environment come from cars. Remember to write your composition on the Answer Sheet.正确答案：
There is an argument that the biggest dangers to our health and environment come from cars. Some people may agree with this, while others may disagree. In my opinion, I don’t think the situation is true.
Firs of all, car brings much convenience to our life. Nowadays, with the fast development of China’s economy and China’s entry into the WTO, each year, there is an increasing number of cars on the roads as millions of new cars are produced. Many Chinese people who live in big cities, to a large extent, rely on cars to go to work every day. Without cars those people will have a lot of trouble going to work.
Secondly, although cars have many drawbacks, there are always many solutions to those problems. One way to get rid of the polluted air is to produce green cars without pollution. Another way is to replace car engines with something else. Inventors are now working on steam cars as well as electric cars.
Thirdly, cars do post some dangers on our health and the environment, but they are not the biggest cause. Dangers come from many aspects, such as factories or hospitals producing many toxin gas or dumping poisonous water into river.
In sum, on the one hand, we should take measure to resolve the problems; on the other hand, we could also use the scientific and technical productions.

问答题Directions: There is a strange phenomenon that many college students passed college English tests, and some even with high scores, but they could not properly communicate with foreigners, nor can they translate between languages, let alone write well in English. Where do the problems lie? Write a composition giving your opinion about the problems. You should write at least 160 words.正确答案：
There is a strange phenomenon that many college students passed college English tests, and some even with high scores, but they could not properly use it in real life. How does this happen? I think several reasons lie behind this phenomenon.
First reason connects with the English classes. The teaching is teacher-centered and the only thing for the students to do is take notes down and recite as many grammar rules as they can. The materials are not good for ability improving, for the emphasis is always on the multiple choices. The students can get rare chance to speak out their true feelings. Secondly, the environment for the students to practice their oral English is hard to find. English corners can only be found in college once a week. And most of the time they keep silent.
Now,it is time to change all this. On the one hand, the materials should add more practical subjects. And there should be a shift concerning the teaching emphasis, from teacher-centered to students-centered. On the other hand, more English speaking environment should be provided to the students.解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题China has the greatest population in the world and a large pool of research workers, yet it has not produced a single Nobel Prize winner so far. What has caused this situation in your opinion? State your opinion in about 160 words, and write it on the answer sheet.正确答案：
We can often hear the news that an American scientist or a Poland researcher get the Nobel Prize for certain inventions or findings, but China, with the greatest population in the world and a large number of research workers, yet has not produced a single Nobel Prize winner so far. There are various reasons for that.
First, there are serious problems in the educational system in China. The Chinese education has long been examination-oriented, which means that students are just forced to swallow the existing knowledge, without thinking much about it. Thus, the researchers think that the systems fostered are lacking in a sense of creativity.
Second, there is too little academic communication between China and the outside world. Due to some historical reasons, China had been isolated from the outside world. Thus it lags behind other countries in science and technology. So what scientists in China are doing now is mainly a repeat of their western counterparts.
Realizing the problems, the government has made many adjustments: the quality-oriented education is gradually taking the place of the examination-oriented one and a great number of leading technology and experts from the foreign countries are brought in. So, it’s certain that in the near future there will be Nobel Prizewinners in China.解析： 暂无解析 -

The Best Way to Keep a Harmonious Relationship in Dormitory When we mention the phrase “dormitory life”, a vision of wild parties and loud music probably pops into our mind. It is true that the dormitory relationship can easily run into trouble, confusion and tension for all kinds of reasons. But is there anything we can do to solve this problem? For me, the best way is communication.
Communication is vital to any relationship, especially to the dormitory relationship. Students sharing the same dorm come from different family backgrounds and thus have different life styles, habits and characters. Without communication, misunderstanding will be frequent and unavoidable. In the practice of communication, roommates should, first of all, share openly their expectations on issues, such as cleanliness, visitation, music, study time and lights out, before they have problems and get out of control. Once common understanding has been reached, we get the guide for our everyday conduct. Furthermore, it may be necessary to make adjustments as new issues may constantly arise in the future life. Therefore, continuous communication is by all means necessary for us to avoid possible misunderstanding or conflicts.
In conclusion, we may be able to enjoy a harmonious dormitory relationship by means of communication, and in this case the dormitory may become our second sweet home away from home.解析： 暂无解析 -

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Students are becoming busier and busier. They have more courses to take, more expectations to meet, and more pressure to suffer. But many teachers complain that students are not spending enough time on reading, especially on reading literary works. What is your opinion on this issue? Write a composition of about 400 words on the following topic:Should Students Read Literary Works?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：
Should Students Read Literary Works? University used to be regarded as a place of reading,and students used to spend most of their time reading not only textbooks but also books of general interests. But now,faced with intense worrying about future job market,students are spending most time on taking useful course and winning various certificates. Students are reading fewer books about their majors,not to mention literary works. Many teachers deplore the disappearance of literary works from students’ reading list,and I think reading literary works can be completely justified.
Most students assume reading a waste of time,but actually reading literary works can help students with their study. For language majors,reading literary works in English gives them more time to use the language,thus helping them learn it better. For other students of social sciences,literary works can help them understand their majors. For example,students of history can know more about the certain decade from novels,and students of management can find more examples from many stories. Even for students of natural sciences,reading literary works can help relax their mind so that they can work better.
The second function of literary works is helping students cultivate themselves. A person who has a balanced knowledge and knows more about human experience is more likely to become one of cultivation. Reading literary works can not only ensure a broad scope of knowledge,but also offer opportunities to know about other people’s experience,so it can help students to improve their own quality. Many professors are respectable because they show much knowledge both in their own study and in human history and other cultures,and this should be attributed to their broad reading of literary works. Most importantly, reading literary works is necessary for carrying on human culture: University is respected in human society just because it is a place where human culture is created and carried on. Knowledge and wisdom in books are
actually dead,and only when they are remembered and understood can they be really alive. When reading literary works, students can understand and remember the great ideas and achievements in human culture. As a professor pointed out, students with little literary knowledge just have an incomplete knowledge and cannot be called a cultivated person. If universities cannot produce cultured graduates, they cannot carry on human culture to the future.
To conclude, reading literary works is of vital importance because it can help students with their study, their personality development, and continuation of human culture. Given its importance, universities should find ways to encourage students to take an interest in this treasure. Let's hope that we can soon find classical novels on the top of the students' reading list.解析：

问答题Advances in technology and science have solved many problems. However，they have also created new problems，among which pollution has attracted much attention of the public. Write a composition of about 400 words on the following topic，discussion the problems caused by pollution.ON POLLUTIONIn 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：
ON POLLUTION Nowadays we have many conveniences in our society, which have been brought through technology and science. However, these same advancements in technology and science have caused some very dangerous problems. These problems will not go away easily because people do not want to give up the conveniences of a modem lifestyle. The most critical problems that should be dealt with immediately are those of pollution.
Pollution caused by chemicals is a very serious problem because it causes the loss of the ozone layer. Without our ozone, not only we ourselves but also plant and animal life are exposed to dangerous rays from the sun. Aerosol cans emit chemicals that break down our ozone layer. Refrigeration and air-conditioning systems and ears also have dangerous emissions. A very serious threat to the planet—the warming of the earth's atmosphere—is primarily caused by carbon dioxide emissions. Many scientists think that the warming could be sufficient to melt the polar ice caps, thus raising the sea levels. This would mean that many parts of the world would be submerged below sea level.
There are other problems caused by pollution. Factories that make our modem conveniences emit poisonous gases onto the air we breathe. The chemicals we use for cleaning and wastes from factories go into our water systems and pollute the water we drink and the fish we eat. They also kill much of the wildlife we depend on for food. Some of the pesticides we have sprayed on our crops have been found to be dangerous. This kind of pollution may stay in the ground for a very long period of time.
Last but not the least, nuclear pollution will lead directly to nuclear damage. The explosions at Three Mile Island in the United States in 1979 and at Chernobyl in the Soviet Union in 1986 provided lessons to the global nuclear industry. The exposure to very high radiation levels released by nuclear plants within a short period of time may harm the environment many years, and usually will cause fatal injuries to human health.
In conclusion, the problems created by pollution are growing daily. Because people do not want to change their lifestyles, we must invent a way to neutralize the pollutants we are putting into our environment. People need to be educated so that will stop damaging the planet. Furthermore, government must take action to prevent individuals and companies from harming their environment.解析：

问答题Some people say that computers are making the world lonely and dehumanized. What is your opinion? State your opinion in no less than about 160 words, and write it on the Answer Sheet.正确答案：
Many people hold that computers are making the world lonely and dehumanized. I could hardly agree with them and I believe that the benefits brought by computers outweigh their defects.
First of all, computers make our lives more convenient than that of before, especially in communication. Chatting on line is much cheaper than talking on telephone and quicker than writing letters.
What’s more, computers enrich our lives and broaden our horizon greatly. We are able to get access to news and other useful information all over the world even when we stay at home. At the same time, listening to music or watching movies on line is such a pleasure.
Last but not least, the computer has become an indispensable tool of the modern society. Now we have business on line, bank on line, we even shop on line. With computers, we can handle complicated data, which was considered impossible by human beings in the past.
In sum, though computers might bring us certain negative effects, they benefit us a lot. Used in an appropriate way, computers could be of great help.

问答题Your class has recently had a discussion about testing. For homework, your teacher has asked you to write a composition in no less than 120 words, giving your opinion about the following statement: A test can tell the whole story. Please write your composition on the Answer Sheet.正确答案：
Can a Test Tell the Whole Story?In the old days, testing was regarded as an important way of electing government officials. Now, testing is still the main way to evaluate students’ ability. However, can a test tell the whole story? In my mind, the answer is absolutely no!
Firstly, a test can only assess a student’s learning states at a particular period of time, but not their all-round ability. Nowadays, the education is mostly test-oriented, which seriously hampers the all-round development of the young. Secondly, sometimes the test result is not objective at all. Many students got their excellent scores actually by cheating. What’s more, the content of the test may not necessarily cover all the points taught in the class.
In sum, a test does play a role in evaluating a student’s leaning states. But a simple test cannot explain the whole story. Now the education for all-around development is what we badly need in China.解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题More and more students are renting flats to live away from campus, and some of them are student lovers. Some students think this is unacceptable, but others find it attractive. What is your opinion on student lovers living together? Write an article of about 400 words to express your opinion. You should supply a title for your article. 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：
On Student Lovers' Living Together According to official statistics, the number of college student lovers living together off campus in Beijing has increased by four times between 1997 and 2001. This is undeniably true of many other places in China. Although many students do not strongly object to it, I don't think it is advisable for college student lovers to live together away from campus.
Some lovers say that living together can help them study better, for it can help them get rid of the interference of other students. This is actually not true. When living away from campus, the lovers will always think of each other rather than the teachers' assignment, and other unavoidable family chores such as looking and washing will also take much time away that might have been spent on study. Besides, many courses now require group work or cooperation. If they stay away from other classmates, how can they study these courses well?
Some lovers say that living together can relieve their loneliness and pressure, but it is not really the best choice. On the one hand, the real reason for their loneliness is that they are not focusing their mind on study. Study, the most important task for university students, can prove to be fascinating if you really focus on it. On the other hand, even if their loneliness is real, there are many better ways to deal with it. For instance, they can find friends to take part in sports or other entertaining activities. By staying away from other classmates, living together can be a source of rather than solution to loneliness.
Other lovers argue that they mean to get married after graduation, and this experience can help them test each other to see if they are suitable for married life. But this mentality does not hold water. The two lovers may really love each other, but living together can actually spoil a good relationship, because it enters into weakness rather than strength, doubt rather than conviction. A follow-up study shows that few couples living together really end in marriage.
In a word, those student lovers cannot find enough reasons to justify their choice. What they can offer all represent self-deception or misconception. Although universities are not allowed to forbid students to live off campus, they can still find more effective ways to convince this lost group of the disadvantages, and improve teaching and after-class activities to attract them back to campus.解析：
这道题要求回答的问题是Is it correct for student lovers to live together away from campus，属于观点态度题的范畴。例文作者在引言段中清楚地表达了自己的观点，并且从学习、心情和婚姻三个方面分析了校外同居的坏处。本文最突出的特点是采用了驳论形式，作者不是直接阐述校外同居的坏处，而是假设有人赞成这一做法并同其辩论。所以在正文段中，作者总是先引出反方观点，然后再说明自己观点并加以论证。由于采用这种方式，所有的主题句都出现在段落中间。本文其他成功之处还包括用文章的话题作标题，引言段采用数据开头以吸引读者注意以及用解决问题的建议作最终评论等。
