Currently, every college student knows that ability is important. They would like to attend various training programs and apply for different certificates so that they are more competent. Do you think that attending training programs and getting more certificates can improve competence? Write an essay of about 400 words entitled: Do More Certificates Stand for Better Ability?
正确答案：Do More Certificates Stand for Better Ability?
This is the very hot season for the college graduates to hunt for jobs in the market. You may see a lot of graduates holding a variety of certificates indicating their versatile skills. Every college student knows that ability is important. They would like to attend various training programs and apply for different certificates so that they are more competent. However can attending training programs and getting more certificates improve their competence? As far as I am concerned the certificates do not really mean competence.
First of all the certificates are simply several pieces of papers proving that you have attended some training programs. Whether you are competent or not really depends upon your cleverness and experience. For example many English majors have passed the TEM-8 an English test specific for the language students. Does that mean their English is perfect once getting such a certificate? Not exactly. The fact is you may find more often than not that many students speak broken English and write poor English. The reason is that they may assume that a certificate can prove their English is very good. So they stop their daily exercises and training and rest on the satisfaction of getting their certificates.
Secondly the ability must be obtained through hard work and long practice. The students should attach more importance to obtaining the ability rather than getting the certificates. The social practices help them make the book knowledge become their own. The certificates should stimulate them to study hard and become more excellent and competent. As for the recruiting companies they prefer the students who can put their book knowledge into daily use which is far more practical than the certificates. Finally the students should try to make themselves more marketable. They need to give up the unrealistic assumption and realize the true fact.
To sum up the certificates do not really mean competence. What we need to do is integrate the certificates with the development of our competence. The two should go hand in hand to make us capable persons.

One is to take a job in a company and the other to go to a graduate school.You are to make a choice between the two.Write an essay to explain the reasons for your choice.You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.
参考答案：
Upon graduation, virtually all college students will confront the problem of
the career choice，which is truly a tough choice.Students'' opinions differ
greatly on this issue.Some hold that priority should be given to take a job, but
others take the attitude that going to a graduate school is the most critical
factor influencing their future career choices.
As to myself, I prefer the latter view.A higher educational background exerts
a tremendous fascination on a great number of people, with no exception to
me.This phenomenon that the graduates have difficulties in finding job after
their graduation can easily be found anywhere in our daily life, especially on
campus.On the one hand, with the improved high education of Chinese college
students which directly brought the result that there are more and more
graduates every year.On the contrary, job vacancies don’t increase that
fast.More people, less food, which is the exact deion of the hard condition.On
the other hand, more and more people go on to pursue their master and doctor
degree; more and more Chinese oversea students come back to China to hunt better
working chances.It is sure that the competition is more and more fierce.
Therefore, it is high time that we took effective measures to improve our own
competitiveness.That is the secret of success in the future employment market
after our graduation.
One is to work in a state-owned business and the other in a joint venture.You are to make a choice between the two.Write an essay to explain the reasons for your choice.You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

business of your own, but others take the attitude that finding a job is the
best choice influencing their future.
As to myself, I prefer the latter view.An opportunity to start a business
exerts a tremendous fascination on a great number of people, with no exception
to me.In my view, With the competition in the job market becoming increasingly
fierce for college graduates， some ambitious students have tried their hands at
launching their own businesses.Over the years，there have been many successful
cases of student entrepreneurship and such attempts should be encouraged and
promoted by both the universities and the society at large.What’s more ,College
students who start businesses are pioneers，among whom will be born China’s
future business leaders.Faced with unknown challenges， they are audacious enough
to embark on a perilous journey while most of their peers enjoy stable salaries
by working as white-collars at high-end office buildings.
All in all, the essential difference between the students who find a job or
those students who create their own businesses is that the former are docile
followers whereas the latter are aggressive trailblazers.For this reason，
business-launching college graduates are more admirable， and thus they command
our deep respect.
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on Certificate Mania. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.
1.描述大学生忙于报考各种证书的现象;
2. 陈述这种现象产生的原因;
3. 阐述考证热的影响，并简述你的观点。
参考答案：
Certificate Mania In the face of fierce competition in the job market nowadays, many university students take various training courses and sit for certificate exams to gain a competitive edge. They usually spend weekends or vacations in training camps, polishing up on their acquired skills or trying to get a new one. Certain "certificate maniacs" even aim to obtain a bunch of certificates, believing that they may come in handy someday. Several reasons may lead to this certificate mania, and the most important is that there is an increasing number of university graduates while that of job vacancies does not grow in proportion to it. Therefore, employers prefer to recruit the ones with more related experience and skills. Since exams and certificates in some way are a testimony to one's certain skills, many students tend to spare no effort to get them. Apparently, it is a good thing to be motivated to learn new things. However, "certificate mania" goes to extremes. It is not only misleading but also places a great burden on students. Some people believe that the more the better and consequently, their major studies may be neglected due to the tight schedule. In my opinion, a certificate does not necessarily reflect one's ability that really counts, so we had better keep a skeptical eye on this mania and avoid vain and burdensome efforts.

正确答案：I am not surprise when I read in the newspapers that many people move to English speaking countries.

For example when I read technical English specifications when I meet Japanese industrials to build together some electronic materials or when I go on holidays in Italy where the best way(for me)to communicate is to speak English.

The Importance of Higher Education The contemporary society has seen a trend of discordance in education. Many college students graduate only to find that they earn much less than their bosses who even have never entered colleges. However, higher education is still valuable for students.
Most importantly, higher education is the source of expertise. Every industry in the society is built on the professional knowledge. If all the staff is poor-educated, who can we depend on to make profits? Colleges can equip students with the most useful and systematical theories. Further, the academic environment in college will provide students with a better opportunity to develop healthy bodies and hearts. What they need to do is to read more and think more for their own pursuits. Thus, they can be stronger to confront the extreme thoughts that may destroy their righteous beliefs in the future. Lastly, good friends and teachers from colleges will help students form right outlook on life and values, which will also benefit their future career.
In summary, higher education will set students a higher start in the future career. If you can not see it now, wait and see that how the better are separated from the good.

正确答案：
【范文】
Is Space Worth Exploring? With the development of science and technology, space exploration has greatly advanced. We could watch the exciting news from TV and read the latest achievement in this field almost every day. As human beings, we are so proud of our work.
Yet, not everyone has the same attitude towards this issue. Some people think we could use the money and resources to find out ways to relieve the suffering of the earth’s starving millions. It has also been felt that the space might lead to the development of space weapon, which may cause the destruction of earth. Despite these disadvantages and potential dangers, the advantages are far greater. Our daily life cannot be without the results of the space science. We use satellites for communication, weather forecast and oil exploration. Some problems may be solved with further exploration. For instance, with the success of space shuttles and the feasibility of living on other planets, we may solve the population problem on earth. Space projects will also enable us to find new sources of energy to solve the energy problem and discover new chemical elements to cure some incurable diseases.
So in my opinion, space exploration contributes a lot to the improvement of the quality of human life. We will have better life with the advances of the space exploration.

Practice 1Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the remark “Success is something most people try to achieve.” You can cite examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.
正确答案：
【范文】
At the mention of success, different people maintain various views. Some hold that wealth is the only criterion on account that without money you can’t live a decent life, and that the more money you possess, the happier you will be. Some however, regard fame as a symbol of one’s achievement, in that the social recognition is the value of each individual because people will respect you if you are in high social status. In my personal point of view, the achievement of self-value decides whether his or her life is successful.
Maslow’s famous theory has pointed out that human needs are divided in to different levels. Once the lower level has been achieved, we begin to seek higher needs. Money, which brings us basic needs of life, only produces physical comfort. Social needs are higher, because respect and recognition are indispensable for us social animals. But the highest need we pursue is the self-value, which is through work or other things we do, we feel we are needed and contribute our efforts to the society. This has nothing to do with which social rank we are in.
So whether one person is successful or not does not hinge on his wealth and fame, for the accomplishment of self-worth is what we should focus on.

You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.
正确答案：
【范文】
My View on Home-fear Group As usual, many people working outside will be eager to go home and visit friends and families whom they have missed terribly. However, according to a survey, the surprise is that there are an increasing number of people, known as the “home-fear” group, who feel anxious about returning home.
As far as I am concerned, such fears can be attributed to economic pressure, long distance, parents’ desire to see their child get married and so on. Besides, difficulty in buying tickets is another important reason causing fear. In Spring Festival, not only bus and train but also airplane can not offer enough seats to take people home. So many people have to line up in advance for a couple days. In addition, many people are anxious about having to spend a lot of money during the festival.
In my opinion, Spring Festival is the time for family reunion. Therefore, the “home-fear group” should abandon all their worries, and go home to spend Spring Festival with their family.
