Festival Gala has set records for TV commercial rates, which accordingly has caused heated discussions due to product placement in the programmes.
The opinions on this topic vary from person to person. One in four think there is so much of product placement that lots of people feel unsatisfied when they watch the programmes. And 10% of the people think product placement in the programmes greatly ruins the image of CCTV, beause it will leave a bad impression on audience in and outside China. Besides, nearly one third of the people hold the opinion that it’s hard to relate the product placement to the programmes, making the audience feel uncomfortable.
However, there are 15% of the people who think it is helpful for the development of CCTV. And the rest think there is no need for us to be so strict with product placement. After all, it’s very natural.
Personally, the product placement is really disgusting and CCTV should try to avoid it.

The 2010 Spring Festival Gala has set records for TV commercial rates, which accordingly has caused heated discussions due to product placement in the programmes.
According to the pie chart, we can see 15% of the surveyed people think it’s difficult to develop CCTV without the product placement, because it can provide enough money. At the same time, 20% of them think the product placement is presented in the progamme in a natural way.
On the other hand, the rest of the people are against the move and they have their own reasons. Nearly one third of them say the product placement has little to do with the programmes, which reduces their interests in the programmes. And 10% of the people hold the idea that the disadvantage that it ruins the image of CCTV outweighs its advantage. Besides, a quarter complain there are too much product placement in the programmes.
As far as I’m concerned, even if it’s common to see product placement, I don’t think it should appear in some programmes of art and culture.
本文反映出作者对英文写作极强的驾驭能力,首先作者能够很好地审题,通过图表找准信息,并且将文章结构安排地很合理,让读者一目了然,再次,作者在语言方面极具天赋,从开始的一个without的强调句,到非限制性定语从句,及后来 Spring Festival Gala has set records for TV commercial rates, which accordingly has caused heated discussions due to product placement in the programmes.
As is shown in the pie chart, 20% of the people surveyed think it acceptable, for the product placement appears in the programmes naturally. And 15% of them consider it necessary for CCTV to make money from product placement, which is of great benefit to the development of CCTV itself.
However, among the people surveyed, more than one third of them complain that the product placement has nothing to do with the programmes. 25% of them even feel hurt seeing so much of it. Furthermore, the rest 10% hold the view that great harm has been done to the image of CCTV.
From the chart we can draw a conclusion that most of the people surveyed are against product placement in the programmes. In my opinion, product placement nowadays is almost unavoidable, but it should not damage the art of the show and should take the audience’s feelings into account.

你班同学开展了一场“司机醉驾是否应该处罚乘客”的讨论。请你根据下表提
I’m writing to tell you about the discussion we’ve had about whether passengers who ride in a car driven by a drunken driver should be punished.
A small part of the students approve of it for the reason that on one hand, this punishment can decrease the amount of the traffic accidents. On the other hand, it can improve the safety of passengers and drivers. Besides, avoiding riding in a car driven by a drunken driver is not only responsible for us, but also for the driver and pedestrians.
However, the majority of the students are strongly against this punishment in that they think it hard for passengers to judge whether the driver has drunk or not. What’s more, even the passengers know the driver has drunk, if the driver doesn’t accept their advice, it’s unfair to punish the passengers.
Personally, I think people who ride in a car driven by a drunken driver should be punished because the public’s safety is the most important.
作者分三个段落来完成此篇书面表达,先说明少数人赞成的观点,接着说明多数人反对的观点,最后给出作者自己的观点,并说明理由。结构紧凑,要点全面,
作者观点鲜明,理由具有说服力。文章中作者使用了大量的高级词汇和高级结构,为文章增添了色彩。on one hand, on the other hand, besides, however, what’s more, personally等过渡词增强了文章的流畅性。
’ve had about whether passengers who ride in a car driven by a drunken driver should be punished.
The minority of the students who are for the idea think that it can reduce traffic accidents and promote the safety of traffic. They also think avoiding taking a car driven by a drunken driver is an activity responsible for passengers and the driver and other people on the road as well.
On the contrary, the majority of the students are opposed to it. The first reason they give lies in that passengers have difficulty finding whether a driver is drunken. Apart from that, even if passengers know that the driver is drunken, it is unfair to punish them when the driver doesn’t take their suggestion seriously.
In my view, it’s traffic security that greatly matters and we
should punish those drunken drivers rather than the passengers.
该文的最大亮点是多处使用的复杂句式,体现作者娴熟的语言表达技巧。Be opposed to, take…seriously等高级短语的使用亦为文章增添了色彩。过渡词on the contrary, apart from, even if, in view, and等使用较为考究。综合全文的这些特点,该理应为一篇优秀作文。
I’m writing to tell you about the discussion we’ve had about whether passengers who ride in a car driven by a drunken driver should be punished.
The minority of the students hold the opinion that punishing the passengers helps reduce traffic accidents and increase traffic safety. Not to ride in a car driven by a drunken driver is not only a responsible behavior for passengers but also for the driver and other people on the road.
The majority of the students, however, disapprove of the idea, stating that it is difficult for common passengers to know whether the driver has been drinking or not. What’s more, even if the passenger knows the driver has drunk alcohol and has attempted to persuade the driver not to drive, it is unfair to punish the passenger when the driver does not follow the advice.
As far as I am concerned, punishing passengers as well as the drivers is not only unfair but also hard to carry out.
Yours sincerely,

北京大学2010年将试行由中学校长实名推荐的招生改革。被推荐的学生高考成绩可获得30分的加分。2009年11月16日北大公布了39所有推荐资格的中学名单。北大这一举措在全国引起了一场激烈的争论。请根据以下要点给《中国日报》写一
will enroll students recommended by high school principals this years. The recommended students will have an extra 30 points added to their national college entrance exam scores. Peking University’s move has set off a nationwide debate.
On the one hand, some people in favor of it think there is no doubt that Peking University’s move is a bold attempt of reforming the educational system. In addition, it is also a guarantee for outstanding students or those gifted in some aspects that they have a chance to be admitted into first-class universities. Besides, this move will encourage the middle schools to pay more attention to the all-round development of the students.
On the other hand, some think there are a lot of disadvantages of this move. First chances are that some students try to cheat because 30 points is a great lure for them. Also,
it is unfair for most students in many other schools.
Personally, we should balance its advantages against its disadvantages. It is the college entrance examination that decides students’ future to a large extent. So I don’t think it’s a good idea or policy.
文章三段式写作,层次分明,结构清晰,文章中大量地使用了一些高级词汇如:reform, guarantee, be admitted into 和balance…against等,另外,最后一段的精心安
will enroll students recommended by high school principals this years. The recommended students will have an extra 30 points added to their national college entrance exam scores. Peking University’s move has set off a nationwide debate.
Supporters hold the opinion that by doing this Peking university attempts to reform the current university entrance system bravely. In addition, the policy can make sure that the students who have good qualities or special talents will be enrolled by first-class universities. What’s more, it’s also an effective measure to drive high schools to focus on the students’ all-round development.
On the contrary, there is another voice. These objectors argue that there is no point in carrying out the policy. Firstly, it may lead to cheating. Besides, it’s against the principle that the universities entrance exam is held on an equal basis. So it’s unfair to other students. And they think there is no need to give extra scores to the recommended students, most of whom are excellent students.
From my point of view, I think it’s well worth having a try. After all, it’s a great leap in reforming the current university entrance system.
读完此篇作文,心中不禁感叹作者良好的英语语言驾驭能力,作者在文中简约有序地组织表达了所有的内容要点,用词精确谨慎,所选句式难易交错,固定句式及地道的短语赋予了文章别样的风采,在文末水到渠成地用了一句it’s well worth
表达了自己的观点,精彩圆满地完成了写作目标。
University will enroll students recommended by high school principals this year. The recommended students will have an extra 30 points added to their national college entrance exam scores. Peking University’s move has set off a nationwide debate.
Some people approve of this move. They think this is the bold attempt Peking University has made at reforming the current university entrance system. This move provides quality students and students talented in certain subjects with an opportunity to enter first-class universities and ensure that they aren’t overlooked simply because of their performance in the national university entrance exam. Meanwhile, it will push high schools to pay more attention to the students’ all-round development.
However, quite a few people object to the move. Firstly, it many lead to cheating. Secondly, only 39 schools are qualified to recommend students, which is unfair to so many schools across the country. Thirdly, there is no point giving extra scores to those recommended students, for they are mostly top students and have no problem entering
Peking University.
As far as I’m concerned, I’m in favor of this reform. As the process of recommendation is transparent, cheating is impossible. Besides, we should support new reforms even if they are not mature.

Directions: Write an English composition in 120 words according to the instructions given below in Chinese.
下图是小学新生的课堂一角,对照你当时的上课情况,作出比较并谈谈你的感受。你的作文必须包括:
●描述图片里学生上课的场景
●比较你同时期的上课情况
●简述谈谈你的感受
boys and girls are active in class, raising their hands and all wearing a smile. They are sitting leisurely on their seats, with one boy even facing the window as if his attention is focused on what is happening outside.
This reminds me of my school days. We had too many rules: All of us should sit straight, both hands placed on the table. No one was allowed to speak in class and everyone’s concentration should be on the teachers. Those who got high marks would sit in the front and you had to sit at the back if you got low marks. Punishment always came to those who broke these rules and regulations.
It’s a little painful to compare education in primary school home and abroad. Students abroad enjoy complete freedom and respect while students in China suffer heavy burden and the lack of initiative. This is a problem well worth consideration.
本篇文章读来有一气呵成之感,层次清晰,语言流畅,从自身角度客面反映事实,合情合理,词汇及句式结构运用娴熟,运用了众多较高级的结构和表达,如独立主格结构、非谓语动词、with的复合结构、状语从句、定语从句等,同时使用上了许多较高级词汇,如leisurely, focused on, concentration, initiative, regulations. 值得称道的是对图画的描述非常的形象,有栩栩如生之妙,阐述自己感受则是非常的深

active part in holding up hands to answer the questions, happy and relaxed. Even one of them is looking outside when having class.
This sight brings us a feeling that these students take delight and interest in learning. Meanwhile, it reminds me the period when I was studying in the childhood. We had to listen to the teacher carefully in each aspect. Even we also did the same, but not many students were smiling like them. What’s more, sometimes we often suffered a burden of homework and punishment. Besides, teachers emphasized more on teaching knowledge rather than organizing activities. What’s worse, some students lost interest in study at the young age.
As far as I’m concerned, it’s essential to realize the significance of the differences between them. Also measures should be taken to change it, or it must have an effect on the future generation.
本篇文章各种句式结构运用较多,有定语从句、状语从句、同位语从句、并列句等,同时在连接词的使用也非常的灵活多变及紧凑,如Meanwhile, What’s more, Besides 等。尤其值得称道的是在字里行间处处流露出作者的一种写作情感,对事情
hands to answer the questions, wearing smiles on their face. Definitely, they are delighted and not anxious in class. Even one students is looking out of the classroom at ease.
Actually, I as well as classmates did so as they are doing when in the primary school. However, if some students made mistakes in answering questions, teachers would give us criticism or unconcern instead of more encouragement. Like this for a long time, we came to lose interest in study and become silent, not willing to answer the questions actively. What’s worse, we were all afraid of meeting teachers face to face.
In my view, the basic reason is that there exist different teaching methods at home and abroad. It’s a pity that Chinese teachers pay more attention to imparting knowledge than concerning students’ ideas. Therefore, it’s time for us teachers to change it.

shortage ; 资源 resource
As is known to us all, water means everything to the human race. Were there no water, there were no life on the earth. We are now suffering greatly from the global water shortage and what is to be done?
Firstly, we should reserve plenty of water for emergency needs, such as severe drought. Secondly, we can turn sea water into fresh water, which can be used directly in our daily life. As a matter of fact, seventy percent of the earth is covered by sea and ocean, so there is abundant sea water for us to make use of. Obviously we have many other ways to save water, for example, after we wash vegetables, we can use the water in the bathroom.
To conclude, we should do everything we can to protect and produce fresh water on the earth when faced with the current terrible water shortage.
That’s all. Thank you.
本篇作文堪称考场佳作,段落清晰,各段内容安排合理;段内各句连贯自然有序,朗朗上口;高中所涉及的句型更是如大珠小珠落玉盘,如as is known to us all, Were there no water, there were no life on the earth, what is to be done等等,表达方式丰富,令人击节赞赏。在词汇运用方面,作者体现出深厚的词汇运用能力,如the human race,
as a matter of fact, for emergency needs, to conclude 等等,用词恰当,不落俗套。
It’s universally acknowledged that human beings are severely suffering from the global water shortage: numbers of people lack fresh water and lots of animals and plants die of shortage of water; what’s worse, the desert is expanding its territory day by day. Faced with such a terrible situation, what shall we do to save the earth and ourselves? 8
In the first place, we are supposed to reserve plenty of fresh water so that we can manage to survive even during a very long drought time. Also, we can take advantage of our modern technology and techniques to turn sea water into fresh water; after all, most of the earth is covered by seas and oceans and there is sufficient sea water for us to make good use of. In our daily life, we should form the habit of saving water. For example, never leave the tap running after use.
Despite lots of challenges facing us, I’m sure we can successfully cope with the problem and have a bright future.
That’s all. Thank you.
本文语言地道流畅,表达手段丰富多彩,段落与段落之间,句与句之间衔接紧密连贯。句型使用合理得体,长短句错落有致。列举词汇,颇有新意。单词和短语的运用,如acknowledge, lack, severely suffer from, in the first place, expand its territory, sufficient 等,均正确无误,令人击节赞赏。文章结尾处提供对未来的展望,也给文章增色不少。
As we know, the global water shortage is becoming increasingly severe mainly due to global warming, environmental pollution and the ever-increasing population. Therefore, it’s high time we did something about it.
Firstly, an effective way, I think, is to reserve water in a scientific way for future use. Secondly, new methods need to be developed to use the existing water resources, for example, turning sea water into fresh water. Thirdly, we must stop water pollution by law. Last but not least, it’s everyone’s responsibility to make good use of water, such as recycling and saving water in our daily life.
In conclusion, people around the world should be aware of the real situation of water shortage, protect the present water resources and explore potential ones scientifically.

is a most effective device used by people to communicate with a computer.
For most people, it’s almost impossible to operate a computer without a mouse, let alone surf the Internet. A well-chosen mouse is really handy, flexible and convenient in controlling the screen. With the functions of inserting, deleting, moving and copying, it enables us to edit text, browse web page and download what we want. It can even help us email people, shop online and find friends around the world. A simple click can even bring us a flood of music, movies and PC games. Just imagine, all this can be done with a cute mouse.
A convenient tool can certainly make our work easier, but it doesn’t always help in a positive way. Too much ready information on our fingertips leaves little room for knowledge pursuing. Too many ready answers make us less excited in finding truth. Relying too much on mouse clicking makes us lazier and less creative both mentally and physically.
