    正确答案: 【参考答案】
    My name is... My registration number is... My topic is: My View on College Students’ Use of Mobile Phones.
    China is becoming a country with the biggest population of mobile phone subscribers and an increasing number of college students are joining the existing users. Statistics show that eight out of ten college students have got one. However, is it necessary for a college student to own a mobile phone?
    In my opinion, there is nothing wrong for a college student to have a cell phone, with is, students will be better connected with friends and parents. What’s more, mobile phones play an important role in graduates’ job-hunting. Therefore, instead of banning the use of mobile phones, schools should take measures to guide an appropriate use of them on campus, For example, students are required to switch off their phones in classrooms and under no circumstances should they use a mobile phone during exams. In some public places, like libraries, a poster can be placed at the entrance to alert library users to switch their phones to vibration mode before they enter the library.
    I believe mobile phones can bring benefits to our students as long as we can make good use of them.

    正确答案: 【参考答案】
    Bicycle theft is very common on campus, which is immoral and illegal. And it is damaging to the academic image of the colleges and universities.
    There are several reasons for this. First, the security system of the school should be partially responsible for the losses. Besides, more than too often, students’ carelessness leaves opportunities for the thieves. Sometimes when they have to leave their bicycles for 10 minutes, they will not take the trouble to lock them. The last point that is also worth mentioning is that there is a lack of moral education in most schools.
    Considering these situations, the school and the students should work together to fight against this phenomenon On the one hand, the school security system should be perfected. On the other hand, students should learn to he more allergic. Above all, moral education must be added and emphasized.

    问答题
    Practice 4  Both language and culture are learned by children without special organized programs of instruction, but motivation to learn is very high since language is the most effective means for a child to obtain what he or she wants. If the learning of a new language begins before lower adolescence, one is likely to be able to speak such a language with complete naturalness, but if learned after upper adolescence some hangover of a mother-tongue feature is very likely to persist. But not only do languages exhibit such learning patterns, but so do cultural traits, for example, shaking hands, kissing, and embracing.  Although many persons assume that languages exist in dictionaries and grammars, in fact they only exist in people’s heads. But this is equally true of cultural traits, which indicate clearly a they only exist in people’s heads. But this is equally true of cultural traits, which indicate clearly a person’s value system when crucial decisions need to be made before there is any time to think about alternatives, for example, diving into a flooding stream to rescue a drowning child.

    正确答案: 【参考译文】
    儿童学习语言和文化,无须专门编制的教学计划,但他们的学习积极性很高,因为他们获得想要的东西,语言即是最有效的手段。如果一个人十来岁开始学习一门新的语言,日后他就有可能轻松自如地说这门语言。但如果到十六、七岁才学,那么他说话时多半会夹杂一些母语的痕迹。不仅语言学习呈现这种模式,文化特征,如握手、接吻和拥抱,也同样如此。
    尽管许多人认为语言存在于词典和语法中,然而事实上语言仅存在于人们的头脑里。文化特征亦然。在没有时间考虑何取何舍而必须作出关键性决定时,如跳入泛滥的河水去救一个溺水的孩子,文化特征会清楚地表现出一个人的价值体系。

    问答题
    Read the passage carefully and answer questions 1 to 5. Answer each question in a maximum of 10 words. Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet  Overseas assignments are becoming increasingly important to advancement within executive ranks. The executive stationed in another country no longer need fear being “out of sight and out of mind.” He or she can be sure that the overseas effort is central to the company’s plan for success, and that promotions often follow or accompany an assignment abroad. If an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas, superior will have greater confidence in his or her ability to cope back in the United States where cross-cultural considerations and foreign language issues are becoming more and more prevalent.  Thanks to a variety of relatively inexperience communications devices with business applications, even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets. English is still the international language of business. But there is an ever-growing need for people who can speak another language. A second language isn’t generally required to get a job in business, but having language skills gives a candidate the edge when other qualifications appear to be equal.  The employee posted abroad who speaks the country’s principal language has an opportunity to fast-forward certain negotiations, and can have the cultural insight to know when it is better to move more slowly. The employee at the home office who can communicate well with foreign clients over the telephone or by fax machine is an obvious asset to the firm.  Questions:  1.What is the author’s attitude toward high-tech communications equipment?  2.What is becoming more and more important to promotion?  3.What does “out of sight and out of mind” (Line 2. Para. 3) probably mean?  4.According to the passage, what is an important consideration of international corporations in   employing people today?  5.What is the advantage of employees having foreign language skills?

    正确答案:
    1.Positive 题干表面是问作者对于高科技通讯工具的态度,但我们从全文可以感觉到作者对现代通讯是持正面态度的,因而对于其通讯工具估计也是持肯定态度的。另外,第四段中的”communications devices”与题干中的communications equipment相对应。而它所在的这一段说:由于各种各样的相对来说并不贵重的通讯设备用于商业,连小企业也能进入国际市场了。能进入国际市场自然是好事,所以作者明显是持正面的态度的。

What are the possible solutions to such a problem?

    正确答案: 【参考答案】
    My name is...My registration number is...My topic is...The Retirement Age for Chinese.
    It has been said that the government is discussing about extending the retirement age of employees. Although the authorities involved have ruled out the possibility of increasing the retirement age for the time being, it has still caused much concern and heated discussion.
    Back in the 1980s, China’s major concern was its huge population, which had to be tackled first. But today, the aging of its population has become a pressing issue. As life expectancy increases with the help of higher social living and healthcare standards, more and more retired people are becoming healthier and still energetic enough to continue their work. For example, a 50-year-old man used to be regarded as aged a few decades ago, while he would more probably be considered a middle-aged person today. On the other hand, people in China retire earlier than in many other countries. In many of the western countries, the retirement age today is usually 65, or even beyond 65. But in China, the average men retire at the age of 60, and women at 55. Moreover, many workers retire earlier than the legal retirement age owning to preferential policies for women and workers in some of the heavy industries. The other thing which is worth our consideration is that the life expectancy of Chinese has been raised for a number of times over the past decades, and in many of the big cities in China, it has already reached 80 or over, so our pension scheme is facing an increasingly heavy pressure. Taking into consideration of the above-mentioned situation and some other factors, many people think that the retirement age for Chinese workers should and can be extended.
    However, adjusting the social security system is a big issue, which has to be done with caution and discretion. The government should encourage a thorough public discussion on the issue and strike the right balance between the pros and cons before making the decision.

    ◆Topic 12:Fast Food  Questions for reference:  1) Fast food is a good reflection of the quick-paced modern society. What role does fast food play in China?  2) Why is fast food so popular? What are the demerits of fast food?  3) What attitude should we have towards fast food?

    正确答案: 【参考答案】
    Fast food is becoming more popular in China, especially among children and teenagers. Today, it’s certainly difficult to think of any other single thing that represents the fast pace of modern society as powerfully as fast food.
    There are several reasons for its popularity. First, it is very convenient and saves a lot of time. The trends of modern society seem to all point to one ultimate goal-saving time, and fast food well serves this purpose. You just go into a fast food restaurant, order your food, and your food is ready in no time. You can either eat it there or take it away. Second, its popularity is also attributed to the clean and comfortable environment of fast food restaurants, the excellent service, and the guaranteed quality of food.
    However, in terms of nutrition, fast food is far from satisfactory. It usually does not compose a balanced diet and is low in nutritional value. Thus, doctors suggest that people, especially children, eat fast food as little as possible. Although cooking at home is time-consuming and the following washing-up tiresome, it offers healthy and delicious meals your body likes and needs. Fast food is only a good choice when you are in a hurry and turn to it once in a while.

What are the advantages/disadvantages of buildings designed as works of art?  3. Recently, more and more people believe that a building should serve its purpose rather than looking beautiful. What’s your view?

    正确答案: 【参考答案】
    Recently, more and more people believe that a building should serve its purpose rather than looking beautiful, whether the architects should worry about buildings as works of art has become an issue of controversy. Before presenting my opinion, I would like to probe into both sides of the debate.
    Critics argue about the shortcomings of buildings designed as works of art. First of all, it needs a great sum of money to design beautiful buildings with extra decorations. Most people would like to have better infrastructures and recreational facilities rather than a better look. Secondly, the side effects brought by artistic designs also arouse people’s wide concern. They worry about the safety of buildings and they believe the steadiness is more essential. Last but not least, the appearance which is loved by the designers may not be accepted by everyone. Different people have discrepant views. It is easier said than done to settle a proposal satisfying everybody.
    Supporters also claim that there are a large number of benefits following the special architectures. For one thing, we can hand down our cultural heritages by constructions. If we fail to build up symbols of our tradition, our descendants may forget it someday. For another thing, it’s also a good way to enhance the embellishment. There is no doubt that a good image of the city could successfully attract the world’s attention and powder .the dwellers with more opportunities. Also worth mentioning is that it can give us good feelings. Under such circumstance, people could work more efficiently and rest more comfortably.
    Generally speaking, both of their views are rational. But personally, I side with the latter one.
    Anyway, we don’t want to live in a world with the same buildings, the same colours and the same styles.

    ◆Topic 8: Is education Losing its Value?  Questions for reference:  1. Some people think that this increased access to education is devaluing degrees. What’s your point of view?  2. What can the degrees bring to people?  3. Do you think it’s necessary to have increased emphasis on degrees in our society? Why?

    正确答案: 【参考答案】
    People have several arguments against the need for degrees. They say that having so many graduates devalues a degree. People lose respect for the degree holder. It is also claimed that education has become a rat race. Graduates have to compete for jobs even after years of studying.
    Another point is that studying for such a long time leads to. learners becoming inflexible. They know a lot about one narrow subject, but are unable to apply their skills. Employers prefer more flexible and adaptable workers.
    However, I feel strongly that this move to having more qualifications is a positive development.
    In the past education was only for the rich and powerful. Now it is available to everyone, and this will have many advantages for the country and the individual. First of all, it is impossible to be overeducated. The more people are educated, the better the world will be, because people will be able to discuss and exchange ideas. A further point is that people with degrees have many more opportunities. They can take a wider variety of jobs and do what they enjoy doing, instead of being forced to take a job they dislike. Finally, a highly educated workforce is good for the economy of the country. It attracts foreign investment.
    In conclusion, although there are undoubtedly some problems with increased levels of education, I feel strongly that the country can only progress if all its people are educated to the maximum of their ability.

    Topic 4:Talk about Virtue  Questions for reference:  1) What virtues can you name?  2) Which one do you think it the most important one?  3) What should we do in order to establish concept of honor and disgrace among people?

    正确答案: 【参考答案】
    My name is... My registration number is... My topic is: Talk about Virtue.
    We must uphold these core virtues including diligence, honesty, justice and responsibility. Traditionally, we Chinese admire the virtue of plain living and hard struggle. The vital importance is also placed on honesty and justice.
    In my eyes, however, responsibility tops our priority. To shoulder some heavy responsibilities, we must keep a style of plain living and hard struggle. Responsibility also means honesty and justice. Everyone must assume a set of responsibilities. For example, we college students must take the responsibility for pursuing the impressive academic performance. But an army of students plant themselves in online games, an activity which compels them to shun huge responsibilities.
    The virtue of responsibility is strongly associated with the “Eight Dos and Don’ts” moral campaign in full swing. Under this slogan, everyone must take on his/her own responsibilities and dedicate to his/her own position. Unquestionably, everyone must promote the socialist concept of honor and disgrace.

    正确答案: 【参考答案】
    Nowadays, international communication has become more and more important, people prefer to communicate in languages, such as English, Arabic and Chinese. But many of the world’s languages and culture are dying out. In my presentation I will examine the problem of languages and culture, dying and the solutions, such as writing books and increasing language population levels.
    Firstly, as the technology improves, people around the world are relying more and more on electronic devices to communicate with each other. While this trend is helping the major culture, it is having a harmful effect on the minor culture that could be swallowed up by the major culture.
    Secondly, some of the world’s languages are not being learned widely by children or used in daily commerce. In some boarding schools, children were punished for speaking their parent’s language. Despite the desires of language and culture activists, the outlook is somewhat grim.
    People already realize this problem exists and are trying to solve it. For one solution, people can record the culture and languages on books or tapes, making sure our descendants can learn or use them in the future.
    The second solution is increasing the language population levels. Governments can make some policies, like encouragement for people to learn and teach the languages facing extinction, no matter whether the language is used in daily commerce or not. By trying to keep them alive, at least they have a future as second languages.
    The important thing is to learn the elder’s tongue and culture before it’s too late. Otherwise we will lose them.
