大学英语四级考试优秀作文 1. 1) 每年，高校许多大学生受到鼓舞去贫困地区支教 2) 支教活动的意义 3) 我的看法 Aid education in china Each year, college students, encouraged to aid students in the poverty, stricken areas ,volunteer themselves in poor villages for a year and try to improve education in poor areas. Aid,education has been beneficial in two aspects. On the one hand, college volunteers are really devoted to the cause. They have opened the eyes of students in underdeveloped regions to the outside world by bringing them new knowledge and thoughts. As a result, they are extremely well received by the children there. On the other hand, college students have received a rigorous training by adapting to the harsh living conditions. They are enjoying the appreciation and no,distance friendship from the children. What’s more, they are greatly inspired by the moving and tireless spirit of the children. In my opinion, China’s educational development can’t be isolated from each individual and we college students should take the lead in response to the appeal for offering aid to children in poor areas. 2. 1) 表达你对Lawrence的想念之情 2) 介绍中国的春节 3) 邀请Lawrence和你们一起过春节 Dear Lawrence, It has been five years since we met each other last time.

About 40 years ago, on the 3rd of march, Chairman Mao called upon the whole nation to “learn from Comrade Lei Feng and serve the people. From then on, the whole nation has been responding enthusiastically to Mao’s teaching and trying every means to give help to those who needed. However, in recent years, with the development of market economy, great changes have taken place in our ways of thinking and modes of living. To serve the people” has become a foolish and formalist slogan. Some people argue that the motto of serving the people is going out of style. They say that we are born to be selfish creatures; even a baby will not give its candies to other kids, let alone the adult. On the other hand, in the present system of market economy, everyone is minding his own business, making his own money, and giving full play his potential capabilities. In a world, we just need to serve ourselves, our own interests. However, there are still other people who maintain that the virtue of serving the people will never be out of date. They assert that since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships, and the strength of human condition is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances. In the service of other people around us, we are in fact serving ourselves. So far as I am concerned, I take sides with those who uphold the virtuous principle of serving the people whenever and wherever it is possible .In daily life, I am always ready to render service and help to render service and help to everybody who does need it . 4. 1) 你的名字叫王海，你看了昨天《扬子晚报》所登的关天招聘销售经理的广告 后，向该公司提出求职申请 2) 简单介绍你自己的经历，以及工作经验 3) 希望得到面试的机会 Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing in response to the advertisement you placed in Yangzi evening newspaper yesterday for a sales manager in your company .i am 2 interested in joining such a professional organization. As you can see from the enclosed resume, my previous work in an export company has provided me with lots of opportunities to contact all kinds of customers and suppliers home and abroad. By communicating with them, I have got very familiar with the international trade and the current market. Besides, my educational training at university focused also on international trade which equipped me with a solid foundation in sales and trade . I hope to have an opportunity to meet your human resource manager in order to let you know more about me. I enclose a resume and could be available for an interview at your convenience. Looking forward to hearing from you and thank you for your consideration. Yours sincerely, Wang Hai 5. College Graduates on the Job Market As is shown in the pie chart ,65% of college graduates are paid only between 1,000 and 2,000yuan monthly, compared with a mere 15% getting entry-level salaries of over 2,000yuan. .It mirrors the fact that university graduates no longer have an edge on the job market. What has contributed to the low income of the so-called unusually lucky people? In the first place, with the coming of the boom of college education, more university graduates have been turned out, sometimes even at the expense of the education quality. As a result, the job market for the graduates is getting tighter and tighter. In the second place, companies are simply unwilling to handsomely pay recruits who are short of working experience and unable to bring about much benefit. Then, how can we enhance college population’s competitive power? In my view, universities ought to gear their education to the demand of the society rather than just have a mass production of ivory-towered graduates. Beyond that, what the university students should do is to improve their overall capacity so as to achieve career security as well as financial security when the day of graduation comes. 6.

A Letter to the Teacher Dear Teacher, Thank you very much for your kind help in all these years. I always owe my academic success to your wise counsel. Now I am writing to tell you that I am determined to work in underdeveloped areas after graduation. Nowadays, more and more people, including a great number of college students, swarm into cities in well-developed areas to seek better jobs. As a result, it becomes increasingly difficult for college graduates with the intention of working in big cities to obtain their ideal jobs. Big cities do not need so owing to a lack of qualified builders, economy in backward areas is hardly developed through decades, and are suffering poverty there. You told me that a youth should have ideas, and our personal ideals should meet the needs and interests of the majority of people. Therefore, I have made up my mind to work as a volunteer teacher to dedicate my life to helping the poor and needy in those places. Please allow me to realize my lifelong dream. Thank you! Yours sincerely, Fan Ming 8( Shopping Online Nowadays, with the popularity of computer and network, it is more likely for many people especially the “white collars” the shop online. Accordingly, more and more shops are opened online and a great variety of goods are available, ranging from fancy ornaments to sophisticated digital cameras. As can be seen by all, the advantage of shopping online is quite obvious. First, it can certainly save the time that the traditional shoppers should spend going to 4 shopping centers. Obtaining things without going out of home brings much convenience. Second, without the need to pay for the rent of a shop, the goods provide online are relatively cheaper. At the some time, buyers can compare the price online with the click of mice. However, this new buying tendency is not altogether perfect. Many people are complaining about the quality of the goods, which are not the same as the photos displayed online. Buyers have a feeling of being cheated. At the same time, to some serious shoppers, shopping online deprives them of the joy of getting what they like spontaneously. Lastly, some people confess that they actually spend more time searching and comparing, leaving many tasks unfulfilled. Therefore, it is appropriate to set a reasonable amount of time and buy sensibly online. 9( Students’ Pressure Nowadays, university students are confronts with many kinds of pressure. Some students have been so seriously affected that they even lose interest in study and choose to drop out. According to a recent survey, there are mainly two pressures students consider to be the most severe. On the one hand, they have to get high scores on various exams to live up to their parents’ and teachers’ expectations. On the other hand, due to the international financial crisis, the job market is turning more and more fierce. Sometimes, graduation just means joblessness. These two problems are profound enough for students, not to mention their high tuition and other psychological problems. Therefore, it is essential that educators and parents give these students a hand to help them out of the glooming situation. First, scores are not the only standard to measure students’ value. They should be taught to live optimistically and face difficulties bravely. Secondly, university students can take part in some extracurricular activities on campus to train their abilities and try to do some part time job on weekends or during vacations to gain more working experience so that they can be qualified after graduation. Only under these ways can students’ pressures be relieved. 10( Wealth and Health With the development of society, people attach greater importance to wealth and health. But which is more important, wealth or health? Different people have different opinions. Some people prefer wealth, holding that money can not bring everything, but without it, one can do nothing. In order to accumulate more money they can do anything. However, other people regard health as more important. Once health is lost, it is no use having a lot of money. As far as I am concerned, I love wealth, but I value health more, because health is the premise on which people start striving. Everybody wants to live a happy life. So they try their best to earn money which 5 can ensure they lead a comfortable life. But if happiness and comfort are achieved at the cost of their health, how can they be happy? Without health money becomes meaningless. In my opinion, no one agrees that a wealthy person without good health can be happy. So just do our best and keep fit! 11( Food Safety More and more attention recently has been focused on the problems of food safety. It brings not only health problems but also social problem. But the most serious of the problem is that it will make people lose heart. As a result, consumers pay special concerns on it. They are concerned with whether the milk they drink has anything unhealthy to their babies; they are concerned with whether the meat-pork, beef, chicken and etc.-will carry any epidemic disease to them; they are concerned with whether the vegetables they eat have been sprayed chemicals more than needed. Food is to people what water if to fish. Therefore it is high time that something were done on it. First of all, the government should force the food producers to obey strictly the food producing regulations to guarantee the safety of food. Accordingly, the consumers should read the directions on the products carefully they buy them. Only in this way, can we eat a safer food. 12( People’s Plans for the Coming Golden Week Another golden week is approaching, and do people plan to spend the holiday? As we can see from the table, about 43,of people choose to stay home while only about 15,will go traveling. Besides, about 26.5,of people decide to visit friends or go shopping. In the meanwhile, people who will work and marry occupy about 12,and 2,respectively. Why do a large percentage of people tend to stay home instead of traveling? A few factors may account for the result of the survey. To begin with, in the golden week, overcrowded scenic spots and soaring traveling expenses often discourage tourists from going out for sightseeing. Furthermore, the golden week offers a good opportunity to people who have been busy working to have a rest or to transact their own business such as marrying and shopping. To make the golden week more enjoyable and interesting, we should keep a good balance in the activities in which we participate. For instance, we may make a trip along with our friends for three or four days, and then stay home to have a rest in the rest of the week and prepare for the work after the weeklong holiday. 6 预测1 Directions: For this part, you are allowed to 30 minutes to write a passage entitled Salary or Interest. You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese. 1. 有的人找工作的时候选择兴趣，有的选择工资 2. 你的看法 Salary or Interest Upon graduation, virtually all college students will confront the problem of the career choice. It is truly a tough choice. Students’ opinions differ greatly on this issue. Some hold that priority should be given to their interest in jobs, but others take the attitude that salary is the most critical factor influencing their career choices. As to myself, I prefer the latter view. A well-paid job exerts a tremendous fascination on a great number of people, with no exception to me. Although it might be choose my future career. In my view, our career choices largely depend on how and where we have been brought up. I come from a poor urban family and my parents were both laid off workers. In order to finance my tuition, they have been working hard over the past four years. As the only son in my family, I have to shoulder the burden of supporting my family. In short, salary is the first and only consideration in my choice of career. 预测2 Directions: For this part, you are allowed to 30 minutes to write a passage to your local English-language newspaper giving your view on a discussion that has arisen as a result of an article they published entitled “Do We Need Blog?” You should write at least 120 words according to the outline giving below in Chinese: 1( 网络博客的现状 2( 你认为博客该如何发展 A letter to the Editor Dear Editor, I have been following with great interest the discussion inspired by the article“Do We Need rdBlog?” published in your newspaper of June 3. I’d like to voice my opinion about this issue. As stated in that article, the blogospheres become trapped in the difficulties striking a balance between writing they want to and writing what may be too offensive to those who have access to their space. Then, to blog or not to blog? This is a question for many people. However, no one can deny the fact that blog is definitely a useful means of free expression online. It has found an immediate welcome and enjoyed much popularity ever since its birth in that never before have ordinary people been allowed such vigorous and understand debate on certain issues. Therefore, to put an end to blogs may not be a way out. What must be pointed out is that bloggers should have an awareness that online insults are as unforgivable as those in real life. So it is necessary that online insults are as unforgivable as those 7 in real life. So it is necessary that bloggers discipline themselves. Apart from people’s self-discipline, lawmakers are called on to establish laws to police activities. Only in this way can we have a clean blogosphere and enjoy freedom of speech. Yours sincerely, Li Ming 预测3 Directions: For this part, you are allowed to 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic The Reading Population in China. You should write at least 120 words, and base your composition on the chart and outline given below: 1( 描述图中所示我国国民读书情况 2( 分析读书率变化的原因 3( 你的看法 The Reading Population in China The bar chart illustrates the gradual decline in the number of Chinese people reading books between 1999 and 2005. According to the graph, in 1999, more than 60% of Chinese people practiced certain readings. The percentage dropped dramatically to 54% in 2001, and continued to decrease until 2005 by nearly 6%. Why do less and less Chinese people read books? The reasons may boil down to the following factors,. For one thing, Chinese people, especially the young, are now experiencing an unprecedented competition. They are struggling hard to accomplish their daily work, leaving no time and energy for reading. For another, modern society provides various channels ranging from television to the Internet for people to effortlessly get whatever information they need. Nevertheless, we cannot afford to be blind to the problem of the decrease in popularity of the decrease in popularity of books among people, especially the young generation. To my mind, nothing can equal the benefits derived from reading. In one sense, books are no less necessary to our mental life than air is to our physical life. People should make is a rule to do some reading each day. Time-consuming as it may be, reading will inevitably exert profound influences on a person, a community and a nation. 预测4 Directions: For this part, you are allowed to 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic Certificate craze on campus. You should write at least 120 words, and base your composition on the information given in the following: 1( 近几年大学校园里出现“考证热” 2( 产生这一现象的原因 3( 你的看法 Certificate Craze on Campus 8 In recent years, getting a certificate has become a new craze among college students. Just randomly ask a student on campus what he or she is busy doing; quite possibly, you may get the answer that he or she is preparing for a certificate of some kind. Why does this craze appear? There are mainly two reasons behind this phenomenon. First, it is the employment pressure that forces colleges students graduates have to face the fierce competition in the job market. How can one make himself more completive? More certificates at hand, maybe. Second, diploma and certificates are still important standards by which many employers measure a person’s ability. In order to increase the qualifications for a job, the students compel themselves to run from one exam to another. From my point of view, we should be more rational when it comes to certificates, since certificates do not necessary prove one’s ability. Being crazy in getting certificates blindly is nothing but wasting time. To conclude, we should focus on improving our ability but not getting a certificates of no practice value. 预测5 Directions: For this part, you are allowed to 30 minutes to write a passage entitled Internet-based CET. You should write at least 120 words, according to the following guidelines: 1( 有人认为有必要举行网络考试 2( 也有人持不同的看法 3( 我的看法和打算 Internet-based CET It is reported that College English Test will be Internet-based. Some individuals argue that it is necessary to adopt this new testing system. Firstly, they claim that it is favorable for students to enhance their computer skills, which are of vital importance in modern society. In addition, Internet-based test will be more efficient and convenient. Others, however, hold the opposite opinion. They think this new testing system will result in injustice. On the one hand, a number of students can hardly afford their food and clothes. How can they be as skillful as those from rich families ,in n using computers? On the other hand, CET, in their opinion, should test the examinees English proficiency rather than computer skills. Personally, I am convinced that the new test contribute a lot to students comprehensive ability. Not only should they get a good command of English, but also master some basic knowledge on computer. Only in this way can they become winners in the future job-hunting. To conclude, I am in favor of this new test system. 预测6 Directions: For this part, you are allowed to 30 minutes to write a composition titled Practicing Tennis for Your Health.

You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese: 1( 越来越多的大学生在校外租房居住 2( 人们对此的看法 3( 我认为„„ Should University Student Rent Houses Off the Campus Recent years have witnessed an increasing trend in university students’ renting houses off campus. It is no surprise that an army of college students move into the neighborhood housing around university campus. This idea of living off campus finds an echo among the students who believe it gives more freedom to them. As is natural, as far as school dormitories are concerned, students are confident to a small living circle. What’ more, students dormitories are hardly furnished with modern facilities such as TV sets and washroom, which is simply inconvenient for the students. Not everyone, however, shares this feeling. Those who view this phenomenon the other way round maintain that this practice may result in the chaos of the universities’ disciplining their students, who are still in the passage into maturity. In addition, it may also add extra financial burden to those students’ families., As for me, I choose living off campus over staying on campus not only because it provides more freedom and allows more privacy, but because it helps present the world outside the ivory tower 10 to the students. 预测8 Directions: For this part, you are allowed to 30 minutes to write a composition titled Should Teenagers Be Encouraged to Attend TV Shows? You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese: 1( 越来越多的青少年出现各种电视选秀节目中 2( 人们对此看法各不相同 3( 你的观点 Should Teenagers Be Encouraged to Attend TV Shows In the past two years, various TV shows have given magic birth to some idols of the young in China, among whom last year’s “supergirls” unlikely to be neglected. It is no exaggeration that their overnight success has become the talk of the whole society. Numerous teenagers are enthusiastically following their examples by attending TV singing contents. This trend gives rise to much discussion. It is assumed by some people that such TV shows make it possible for the common people to become superstars, which is otherwise an extremely tough task.. However others frown on young students’ participation in these programs. It is held that the primary concern of adolescents should be school activities rather than social activities. Besides, such TV shows may lead some teenagers to be under the illusion that there is a shortcut to success and be unwilling to work hard, which will exert s bad influence on the society. In my view, it is absolutely unadvisable for teenagers to appear on the TV shows, wearing grown-up clothes and grown-up expressions. They should put study above anything else become adolescence is a crucial age for their education. What really matters in one’s life is not short-lived early success but real competency. 预测9 Directions: For this part, you are allowed to 30 minutes to write A Proposal for Blood Donation without Repayment on behalf of the Student Union.

Probably some of you are concerned for the physical fitness if some blood is gone. While it is true that loss of too much blood is dangerous to one’s health, it doesn’t follow that donating a little blood is also harmful. As a matter of fact, donating a certain amount of blood helps promote metabolism. I do hope you will cherish the opportunity to volunteer in our joint efforts in serving the society. 11 If your little blood can pull back someone on the way to death, will there be anything that can make you even happier? If you are healthy and ready to contribute to the noble cause, you may go to the blood donation center in our school hospital which will be open at every weekend from now on.

In the previous two months, we have made great achievements in many ways. I’d like to thank everybody here for your tremendous efforts and full dedication to our work.. Our fellow students are satisfied with our service as a whole. They spoke highly of the charity dance which raised a certain amount of money for the Project Hope. Additionally, last month’s English speaking Contest was also a huge success. However, we still have some way to go before we can meet most student’ needs. students are complaining that our campus life is somewhat boring. I am therefore recommending to the union that we hold a series of football games on weekends, which are bound to enrich our daily life as well as make the whole university more harmonious.

It has been argued by popular cry since the technology came off. Those who rush into cosmetic surgery deem it as a best way to stand out from the crowd, boosting their chances of academic and career success. For some young people’s part, just as it is normal for a lady to have make-up, it is an acceptable life style to attain attractive appearance under the knife. However, some others feel it ill-advised for those obsessed with desirable looks to turn to plastic surgeons. A world with similarly copied faces is far from colorful. What’s more, true beauty consists in one’s competence and confidence which will not fade away. As for me, leaping into a plastic surgery clinic is the last thing I will do. Cosmetic surgery is anything but an option to change one’s self-image. It is one’s sincerity and dangerous and tricky. A good case in point is the household pop singer Michael Jackson. The overenthusiastic beauty-hunter has spent a handsome sum of money only to find himself trapped in endless medical treatments to keep fit after dozens of plastic surgeries and sinking in the entertainment industry. 预测12 Directions: For this part, you are allowed to 30 minutes to write a composition with the titled How will our life Go on without Internet ?

The Internet has drawn the world closer together, realized countless incredible dreams, and provided modern people with a great many convenience and a brilliant life. Today, many people simply feel they cannot live without Internet. Governments publish their latest policies and decisions online for worldwide recognition. Political campaigns are often done online to gain wider public support. Companies and enterprises resort to the Internet for more business opportunities and potential customers home and abroad. University and researchers turn to the Internet if they’d seek international cooperation or funding. Common folks like us also rely on the cyber world in various ways, for communication, entertainment, banking and shopping. The power of the Internet is all pervasive, yet its many negative efforts are already visible. For example, Internet addicts tend to withdraw to their own fantasy world rather than communicate with a real person. Children are exposed to online pornography and violence. Internet frauds are an everyday occurrence. In view of all life, you are advised to use the Internet with wisdom. Keep it at a safe distance and never lose yourself . 13 预测13 Directions: For this part, you are allowed to 30 minutes to write a letter to your local English-language newspaper. You should write at least 120 words according to the guidelines given below in Chinese: 假设你所在的地区马路重建后刚投入使用，你发现新的道路系统并没有给居民带来方便， 于是给报社编辑写信，希望引起相关部门的注意。 thMarch 15,2010 Dear Editor, I’m a student of Fudan University. I’m writing to you about the new street in the neighborhood which the local people have been looking forward to for two years. We were happy to see it finally put in service last week. Nevertheless, there turns out to be an absence of bicycle lanes, which has now become the source of the greater complaint. Bicycle riders are reduced either to sharing the pavement with pedestrians or to mixing themselves into the stream of automobiles, exposing all the parties to great danger. As it was, I happened to see a bicycler falling victim to a car yesterday. The new road system was reported to have duplicated street designs in those developed countries. However, it seems that the city planners have failed to recognize the actual situation. Bicycle lanes are still of great necessity in China, a country viewed as “ Kingdom of Bicycle”. In my eyes, by no means is an advanced project contradictory to the practical conditions rewarding. I do hope those concerned may read this letter and take this problem into serious consideration.

Choosing an occupation takes time, and there are s lot of things you have to think about as you try to decide what you would like to do. You may find that you will have to take special courses to qualify for a particular kind of work, or you may find out that you will need to get actual work experience to gain enough knowledge to qualify for a particular job. Fortunately, there are a lot of people you can turn to for advice and help in making your 14 decision. At most schools, there are teachers who are professionally qualified to give you detailed information about job qualifications. And you can talk over your ideas with family members and friends who are always ready to listen and to offer suggestions. 预测15 Directions: For this part, you are allowed to 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic of old people living in the nursing home. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below: 1( 有些年轻人将自己年老的父母送到养老院生活 2( 他们这么做出于怎样的考虑 3( 老年人住在养老院的好处和可能产生的问题 On Old People Living in the Nursing Home In today’s China, couple with the people’s rising standard is the marked increase in the number of old people. Contrary to the traditional custom that the old spend their late years with their children, a considerable number of old people are placed in nursing homes, homes specially built for the aged members of the society. The explanation for this phenomenon involves several factors. For one thing, on the adult children’s part, the quickening life pace and fierce social competition render them too busy to tend their old parents. For another, on the old people’s part, nowhere else can they receive more professional care than in rest homes. Needless to say, nursing homes help relieve the adult’s burden and worries about their old parents who now can have people of their age as companions. Nevertheless, this practice may also invite some problems. Some people may go to extremes, leaving their grey-haired parents completely at the mercy of others.

Beibei’s case is far from rare. As it is, numerous school children dedicate themselves to various training courses on weekends as well as during vacations. When deciding what course to attend, people are often inclined to choose those remedial courses, hoping that they may lead the children to score high, perform well and rank first at school.

Flexible paid holidays are preferable to the fixed ones. Decision-markers are supposed to work out a scheme to grant every citizen two or three weeks of paid holiday each year at whatever time the individual likes. Only then can Chinese people enjoy their leisure time in a leisurable way. 预测19 Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to writes A Brief Introduction to the University.
