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.
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

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.

参考答案：
Renting an Apartment off Campus Nowadays, an increasing number of college students would rather rent an apartment off campus than live in a dormitory. This phenomenon has raised considerable concern among parents and college faculties about living off campus, which is caused by the following reasons. To begin with, living conditions of an apartment off campus may be better than those of a dormitory. A rented apartment is often equipped with an independent washroom and a shower equipment which may be of great advantage over the school dormitory. In general, a typical dormitory often accomodates four or six, or even eight students and it is too crowded and noisy for those who prefer private space as well as quiet circumstances. In addition, instead of being regulated by dormitory rules, students may enjoy more freedom in a rented apartment. If college students intend to rent an apartment, I think they should give top priority to safety. It is important to make a survey of the surroundings first to ensure the security. Besides, when they tend to enjoy the freedom, they should have a better sense of self-control and make good use of their time.

【范文】
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.

Practice 5Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the remark “Is Space Worth Exploring?” 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】
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.

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.

正确答案：
【范文】
The More I Learn, the More Ignorant I Find Myself to Be As soon as I was enrolled in college, I felt a big burden off my mind. So did my classmates. We just wanted to relax. But at our first English lesson on how to improve our study the teacher told us, “There is no end of learning. The more you learn, the more ignorant you will find yourself to be. The only way you can do is to work hard to learn more.”
The teacher’s words awaken me and remind me of the ignorant few who claim to have all of the answers to man and life but know less than you or I, and who, with their hands held up high, offer everything you may have wanted to know about life itself, but when pushed and pried knowing nothing but what they are told. Now I am a postgraduate, and life has taught me too many harsh lessons. The more I learn and experience, the more I realize how little I know. Therefore, bearing in mind the motto that there is no end of learning, I keep on my studies. I do not only learn from the books, but also from experiences, as practice makes perfect.
For all of my efforts, I am fully aware how far I am away from the sea of knowledge. The more I learn, the more ignorant I find myself to be and the more I feel the need to learn. Art is long, and life is short.

Practice 1Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the remark “More and more teenagers use cell phones.” 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】
My View on the Use of Cell Phone among Teenagers It is usual if you notice a teenager in a school uniform speaking through a cell phone on the street.
It is very convenient to have a cell phone at hand. In the event of an emergency, they can call their parents or teachers or even the police for help by cell phone. They can send text messages to their classmates exchanging ideas or seeking assistance in their learning when they are away from one another. And their parents will not be very worried as it is rather easy for them to contact their children and check their whereabouts and what they are doing by cell phone.
However, some teenagers might indulge themselves in showing how fashionable their cell phones are to their peers. Such behavior might prove contagious and soon other users will be tempted to pester their parents for a showier new model of cell phone. What is annoying to teachers is that the ringing of cell phones will easily disturb the class if some of the students forget to switch off their cell phones in class.
In conclusion, parents should think twice before they buy a cell phone for their children at primary or secondary schools.
