2、 an essay of about 120 words on “Science and Technology Have Come into Our Houses“. Make reference to the following points1）科学技术已走进千家万户2)科学技术给人们带来的便利3)怎样提倡学习科学技术一、写作 (一) 存在问题 1.不会写所谓不会写指的是，当考试拿过一篇文章不知如何下手，不知如何提笔进行写作。笔者认为主要是存在以下两个原因：一是考生的确无话可说；二是心里虽然有话，但是拿捏不准该写哪句为妙。于是思前想后、犹豫不决，始终不敢提笔进行写作。2.写不好所谓写不好就是
3、，拿过作文题，没有明确的写作思路，不按套路出牌；或是简单汉语逻辑思维写作，不符合英语写作标准，近而没有文采。原因在于：第一是平时没有养成良好的写作习惯；第二对于英语写作的句式特点以及整体文章结构框架不了解。(二)解决办法 第一，首先必须熟悉英语写作具体要求。要求考生在短时间内写出 120 字的文章。2体材主要有议论文(分为“Topic 题型”和 A never; not only-,but also-; seldom) 在我一生当中很难遇到这样的人 Seldom in my life have I met such a kind-hearted man. 地点方位名词位于句首 In no ot
4、her place in the world can one find such enthusiasm for applying for hosting the 2008 Olympic Games. (3)修辞5无论是汉语写作还是英语写作，修辞其实非常的重要。它是作者写作功底具体事例地展现。所谓修辞包括比喻、拟人、排比等等。这里仅举一个比喻例子，还是拿“重要的”来举例。当你用完词组之后，如果你用上下面比如句子，则文章就会显得神采飞扬，试比较：The bicycle is important for us.The bicycle is of importance for us.The bicy
5、cle plays an important role in our life.The bicycle, environmental friendliness vehicle, plays an important role in our life.The bicycle is like the air, water, and sunshine and cannot be parted with a moment in our life.那么很明显，最后一个句子是我们最终拿到考场上去搏击高分的句子。第四，平时要注意积累 写作技巧写作绝招一（如何写好开头和结尾）一 开头万能公式：1.开头万能公式
6、一：名人名言有人问了， “我没有记住名言，怎么办？尤其是英语名言？”，很好办：编！原理：我们看到的东西很多都是创造出来的，包括我们欣赏的文章也是，所以尽管编，但是一定要听起来很有道理呦！而且没准将来我们就是名人呢！对吧？经典句型：A proverb says， “ You are only young once.” （适用于已记住的名言）It goes without saying that we cannot be young forever. （适用于自编名言）更多经典句型：As everyone knows， No one can deny that2.开头万能公式二：数字统计原理：要想
7、更有说服力，就应该用实际的数字来说明。原则上在议论文当中不应该出现虚假数字的，可是在考试的时候哪管那三七二十一，但编无妨，只要我有东西写就万事大吉了。所以不妨试用下面的句型： According to a recent survey， about 78.9% of the college students wanted to further their study after their 6graduation.看起来这个数字文邹邹的，其实都是编造出来的，下面随便几个题目我们都可以这样编造：Honesty根据最近的一项统计调查显示，大学生向老师请假的理由当中 78%都是假的。Travel by
8、 Bike根据最近的一项统计调查显示，85%的人在近距离旅行的时候首选的交通工具是自行车。Youth根据最近的一项统计调查显示，在某个大学，学生的课余时间的 70%都是在休闲娱乐。Five-day Work Week Better than Six-day Work？根据最近的一项统计调查显示，98%的人同意每周五天工作日。更多句型：A recent statistics shows that 二 结尾万能公式：1. 结尾万能公式一：如此结论说完了，毕竟要归纳一番，相信各位都有这样的经历，领导长篇大论，到最后终于冒出个 “总而言之”之类的话，我们马上停止开小差，等待领导说结束语。也就是说，开头
9、很好，也必然要有一个精彩的结尾，让读者眼前一亮，这样，你就可以拿高分了！比如下面的例子： Obviously（此为过渡短语） ， we can draw the conclusion that good manners arise from politeness and respect for others.如果读者很难“显而见之” ，但说无妨，就当读者的眼光太浅罢了！更多过渡短语： to sum up， in conclusion， in brief， on account of （由于）this， thus更多句型： Thus， it can be concluded that， Ther
10、efore， we can find that2. 结尾万能公式二：如此建议7如果说“如此结论”是结尾最没用的废话，那么“如此建议”应该是最有价值的废话了，因为这里虽然也是废话，但是却用了一个很经典的虚拟语气的句型。Obviously， it is high time（正是时候,） that we took some measures to solve the problem.这里的虚拟语气用得很经典，因为考官本来经常考这个句型，而如果我们自己写出来，你说考官会怎么想呢？更多句型：Accordingly， I recommend that some measures be taken.Cons
11、equently， to solve the problem， some measures should be taken.二、主题句原则文章也要有其主。否则会给人造成“群龙无首”之感！相信各位读过一些破烂文学，故意把主体隐藏在文章之内，结果造成我们稀里糊涂！不知所云！所以奉劝各位一定要写一个主题句，放在文章的开头（保险型）或者结尾，让读者一目了然，必会平安无事！特别提示：隐藏主体句可是要冒险的！To begin with， you must work hard at your lessons and be fully prepared before the exam（主题句） 。 Witho
12、ut sufficient preparation， you can hardly expect to answer all the questions correctly.三、一二三原则领导讲话总是第一部分、第一点、第二点、第三点、第二部分、第一点如此罗嗦。可毕竟还是条理清楚。考官们看文章也必然要通过这些关键性的“标签”来判定你的文章是否结构清楚，条理自然。破解方法很简单，只要把下面任何一组的词汇加入到你的几个要点前就清楚了。1）first， second， third， last（不推荐，原因：俗）2）firstly， secondly， thirdly， finally（不推荐，原因：俗
13、）83）the first， the second， the third， the last（不推荐，原因：俗）4）in the first place， in the second place， in the third place，lastly（不推荐，原因： 俗）5）to begin with， then， furthermore， finally（强烈推荐）6）to start with， next， in addition， finally（强烈推荐）7）first and foremost， besides， last but not least（强烈推荐）8）most impor

16、oes, you dont know what happiness is until you lose it you dont know what health is until you are ill. “Health is of vital importance to life” sounds like a clich（陈词滥调） to everyone, but it is absolutely true.The negligence of the delicate balance of your body and soul, the harmful habits such as smo
17、king, 9excessive drinking will catch up with you someday. How many big plans are interrupted by bad health! Even a normal life is unimaginable without the guarantee of health.How to keep fit is an eternal（永恒的） topic. Regardless of all the different suggestions poured from all kinds of sources, one s
18、hould do at least two things for him/herself. First, hold an active and optimistic attitude toward life and maintain a mental well-being. Second, live a regular life and keep a balanced diet. Anyway, a healthy life is within reach when you begin to adjust your mind and body.2. Energy ResourcesChina
19、is rich in various energy resources. Coal and petroleum, for instance, are two major ones. They are essential in developing the countrys industry, science and technology. China has done a great deal in the past few decades to raise its output of coal and petroleum.Three energy resources are being us
20、ed up rapidly. With the building of four- modernization, new industrial and science projects are springing up like bamboo shoots after rain. They are all big consumers of energy resources. Besides, there has been considerable waste in the utilization of these resources.To avoid an energy crisis in t
21、he future, the government must take certain measures. First, it should let people know the importance of saving energy. Second, efforts should be made to develop new energy resources, such as solar energy, wave energy and so on. 3. CompetitionCompetition makes people original and creative. It very n
22、ecessary to compete if human society wants to advance. (Even animals compete for survival.) Without it, we would become lazy and nobody would take any responsibility. When three monks live together, there will be no drinking water. This Chinese proverb vividly describes why Chinas productivity was s
23、o low before Mr Deng came to power. At that time, we had the so-called planned economy. There was no competition at all. So neither farmers nor workers worked hard. China was on the edge of collapse.Competition can stimulate people to try their best to do anything. For example, in 100-meter race, ea
24、ch sportsman runs as quickly as possible, trying to win the champion. The same things happen in our society and in our daily life. If a company wants to surpass others, it must compete with them. It must raise its efficiency. All the companies doing this will no doubt benefit the whole 10society and
25、 the whole human race.Being a student, I must compete with others in our studies. I must study hard in all the fields so that I can be a useful man when I enter the society after graduation.4.Students Part-time jobsThere are many advantages for a student to have a part time job. For instance, it hel
26、ps him to realize that no success comes from nothing. It enables him to be independent and builds up his self-confidence. Therefore, part-time jobs can get the students out of the ivory tower and give them the opportunity to know more of himself and of his personal value in society.As everything has
27、 two sides, the disadvantages cant be ignored. Part-time jobs cut into students study time; some even become so preoccupied(全神贯注的) with making money that they can t focus their attention on studying. In the end, the students may fall behind or fail in their studies.In my opinion, students can choose
28、 to take up a job according to their own situation. The most important thing is for him to keep a good balance, put his study on top of the list and assign an adequate amount of time to it.5.Wealth and HappinessEverybody wants to get wealth. In todays material world, making money or becoming wealthy
29、 symbolizes a persons success and capability. Many people just make every effort, pay any price to attain greater wealth. With money, they can but nice, large apartments in nice neighborhood; with money, they can own stately luxury cars. Wealth seems with money, they can own stately(堂皇的) luxury cars
30、. Wealth seems to bring all happiness in life.In my opinion, people cannot do anything without money, but money is not everything. What money will bring you depends on your personal belief and goal in life. If you are kind enough to help others, especially the poor, money is a good thing to you. Wit
31、h it, you can do much more for the benefit of people and your country, and it will and to your own happiness. If you want money just for your own needs, youll never be satisfied or happy. In a word, you should have money spent for more people, only then can money be the source of your happiness.6.Id
32、ealsEveryone has his ideals. A businessman wishes to make greater profit; a farmer expects bumper 11harvests; a student tries to learn more and better. And everyone strives(努力), with more or less effort, to realize his ideal.One should be sensible about whether his ideal is well founded or not. If i
33、t is, one has to plan and work hard for its realization. Effort, skill and persistence are all necessary. And very often, one has to get help from others, including advice and support in one form or another.My ideal is to become a doctor, It is said that the field of medicine is a well-paid professi
34、on, but I take it as a lofty profession entrusted with saving peoples lives. To realize my ideal I have concentrated on laboratory work to develop the skills necessary to become a qualified doctor. I am sure I will realize my ideal if I persevere in this pursuit.7. Popular Sports in ChinaSports are
35、flourishing in China now. More and more people are willing to take part in sports of different kinds, such as table-tennis, football, volleyball, and so on. Every year there are many matches played on the city, provincial or national level. Sports are no longer limited to a few professional players.
36、Early in the morning people may be seen doing exercise. Martial arts (like Chinese boxing or swordplay) which formerly were cultivated for self-defense, now have become a form of physical exercise and are practiced in parks, streets, gardens, or on campuses. In addition young and old people are also
37、 often seen running in order to build up their bodies.China promotes sports to enhance the physical condition of its people; she is formulating policies to provide encouragement of this activity. She awards prizes to the excellent players for the best records both in china and the world. In the worl
38、d the Chinese have become a strong people instead of “the weaklings of East Asia”.8.Is Failure a Bad Thing?Failure is what often happens. It is everywhere in our life. Students may fail in exams, scientists may fail in their research work, and athletes may fail in competitions.Although failure happe
39、ns to everyone, attitudes towards failure are various. Some people dont think their failure is a very important thing at all. So they pay no attention to it. As a result, they will have the same failure a period later. Some people think themselves are fools and lose their hearts in everything after
40、they get a failure. Consequently, they spend their time and energy on 12useless things and they may really be fools as they have thought.Other people are quite different from the two kinds of people mentioned above. Instead of being distressed and lost, they draw a lesson from every failure and beco
41、me more experienced. After hard work, they will be successful in the end. It is said that failure is the mother of success. Success will be gained after times of failures so long as we are good at drawing lesson from our failures.In my opinion, failure is not a bad thing, the really bad thing is tak
42、ing a failure as failure or even lose our heart after failure.9.Modernization of Family LifeWith the rapid development of the society, family life is becoming modernized. Years ago, people considered owing radios, sewing machines, watches and bicycles as being modernized. But in recent years, almost
43、 all families have TV sets, refrigerators and washing machines. It is very common to see people ride motorcycles or even drive private cars and more and more families have telephones, computers and air-conditioners.The modernization of family life brings us convenience and comfort. One may enjoy TV
44、or radio programs, communicate with his friends through telephone or work with his computer while his washing machine, refrigerator and air-conditioners are running. And by car or motorcycle one can quickly reach wherever he wants to go.In spite of this, these modern facilities also bring us disadva
45、ntages. For example, radiation from TV sets and computers is harmful to our health; improper driving of cars and motorcycles becomes the major cause of traffic accidents. The quietness of a family is often disturbed by a falsedialing or unwelcome phone call. But it is believed that these disadvantages will be disposed of with the improvement of modernization and our life willbe more healthy and more comfortable.
