2、uld we Love them or Hate them?In the picture, there are some statistics showing the cars number in China from 1980 to 2002. From the statistics, we can see that the number of cars has increased drastically since the turn of the millennium.The statistics indicate that there is a higher and higher dem
3、and for cars nowadays. Ten years ago, the car was a real luxury for most of the people in China. Owning a car seemed to be a dream too far away to realize. However, this luxury is now becoming somewhat of a necessity to many people. From this phenomenon, a conclusion can be reached that the living s
4、tandards of the people have improved by a big margin. Cars make our life more convenient. However, good dreams may sometimes turn to be nightmares. Many problems accompany the increasing numbers of cars. There are more and more accidents which can bring disaster to many families. The city traffic is
5、 in chaos and traffic jams have become a part of our daily life. Air pollution and noise pollution caused by cars do harm to our health. People who loved cars so much before have begun to hate these annoying machines. In fact, all things have dual characters. What we should do is to reduce the influ
6、ence of the negative one to the minimum. It is true that cars have brought a lot of problems to our life. However, many measures can be taken to tackle them. More roads and overpasses can be built. Some improvements can be made to reduce the volume of the exhaust air. I believe that everybody will l
7、ove cars one day in the future.Study the picture above carefully and write an essay entitled “After Graduation” In the essay, you should (1)describe the picture (2)interpret its meaning (3)give your opinion about the phenomenon.You should write about 200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET2.

8、duation is an important event for all of us. It is the divide between school and a full-time working life. After graduation, we are no longer students protected by parents and teachers, but a member of the real society. Lets look at the picture first. A graduate is told by his teacher, “You must dep
9、end on yourself during your life journey after graduation” He finds that some former graduates fly high into the sky while some experience a drastic fall.The picture tells us a principle. Graduation is not the end of your education, but the beginning of your real journey. At school, we may find we a
10、re no different from our classmates. However, there will be a great gap between us after graduation. Some may try their best to improve themselves and become the mainstay of our ear era? While some are indulged in creature comforts and give up their initial ideals. Therefore, we should remember that
11、 graduation is the beginning of our real life journey. If you want to be a person useful to society, you should make all efforts to learn as much as possible from others and improve yourself. In this way, you may fly high in the sky.Study the picture above carefully and write an essay entitled “The
12、Adaptation of the Classical Literature”. In the essay, you should (1) describe the picture (2) interpret its meaning (3) give your opinion about the phenomenon. You should write about 200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points)The picture gives us a view of a popular phenomenon: the adaptation o
13、f the classics. Some classical literary works, such as our four great classics i.e. A Dream of Red Mansions, Journey to the West, The Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Heroes of the Marshes, are all adapted to cater to some readers tastes. The traditional characters become so strange and the plots a
14、re totally different. It is so ridiculous that the precious literary treasures are allowed to be ruined so much.As we all know, the classical literature is the representation of the outstanding art of our nation. Some familiar characters such as Monkey King express the good wishes of our common peop
15、le. From them, we learn many good virtues such as honesty, bravery, justice etc. However, in those adapted works named “Bantering*”or “Reboiling*”, all plots are changed and all characters become somewhat watered clown. Some readers interested in reading burlesque works have high praise for them. Bu
16、t they never think of the negative effects of such adaptations on the average reader, especially to children. Children are the future of the nation. They always believe that what is in the books is the truth. Those adapted works will affect their outlook on life. Therefore, some measures should be t
17、aken to restrict these adaptations. The real classics should be presented on the bookshelves to lead people to appreciate the real art.Study the two pictures above carefully and write an essay entitled “On the Relationship between Environment and Economy” In the essay, you should (1) describe the pi
18、ctures and interpret their meaning (2) give your opinion with some proof (3) give your conclusion.You should write about 200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points)On the Relationship between Environment and EconomyThe two pictures above are both about the relationship between the environment an
19、d the economic development. In the first picture, GDP is on the rise while the environment is drastically polluted. In the second picture, economic efficiency progresses with environmental protection. Its easy to get the conclusion that development according to the second picture is more reasonable
20、than that in the first one. In the early development of socialism, our country didnt pay much attention to the issue of environmental protection and savored the bitterness. Now, the government has taken many measures and is implementing the strategy of “sustainable development”. One aspect of the st
21、rategy is to develop the economy and take measures to protect the environment at the same time. In this way, we can develop our country in a sustainable manner and our offspring can have enough resources to develop society. If we dont put much emphasis on the environment issue and excavate the natur
22、al resources blindly, our country will become a barren land sooner or later.In a word, sustainable development is a reasonable strategy which should be implemented for a long time. The nature is providing us with plentiful resources generously, but it may punish us severely if we dont care her.Study
23、 the two pictures above carefully and write an essay entitled “On Education of China” In the essay, you should (1) describe the pictures (2) interpret their meaning (3) give your opinion about the phenomenon .You should write about 200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points)The two pictures look
24、 so similar at one glance, but they are totally different. In the first picture, a peasant boy, carrying a heavy bundle of rice straw is out of breath under the great pressure. His hope is to have a school to attend. In the second picture, a student is on his way home from school, a heavy bag of boo
25、ks on his back. What he wishes is that he didnt have to go to school any more. How can the two boys at the same age have such different ideas about attending school?The two pictures show some problems in the present education system in China. In the poor countryside, especially in some western parts
26、 of China, the education is also poor. There are no buildings for classrooms, let alone good teachers. Children there cannot have regular education. They are sometimes forced to leave their studies because their families cannot afford the necessary fees. However, the situation is totally different i
27、n the cities. Almost all the children in the cities can have regular education. They can enjoy the bright classrooms and adequate facilities. But they have their own problems. What they face is the endless homework, which puts so much pressure on them that some students dont want to continue their s
28、tudies.Given the problems above, our government has taken some measures. “The Hope Project” has been in operation to ensure that children in the poor areas can achieve education. Some strategies have also been put into force to reduce the pressure on the students. Teachers are asked not to give too
29、much homework. Emphasis should be put on the improvement of the quality of the students. However, there is a long way to go in the improvement of our education conditions. The whole society should be mobilized to make some contributions to our education.Study the picture above carefully and write an
30、 essay entitled “On the Interpersonal Relationship in the Modern World” In the essay, you should (1) describe the picture (2) interpret its meaning (3) give your opinion about the phenomenon .You should write about 200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points)The picture is talking about a story a
31、bout neighborhood. Two ladies living in the opposite apartments say “hello” when they happen to meet each other in the corridor. One of them says, “I moved here 5 years ago, but I never met you before. Could I ask your name please?” The other says,” I have been here for 6 years. How should I call yo
32、u?”It seems very ridiculous that people living so near dont know each other for such a long time. However, this kind of story is performed everywhere. It is the exact reflection of interpersonal relationships in the modern world. In the modern world, most people live in apartments. They close their
33、doors and never go out as soon as they get home from work. If they live alone, they will kill their time by watching TV or reading magazines. They dont have any connections even with their closest neighbors, who seem no different from people they meet everyday in the street. They become more and mor
34、e indifferent. This phenomenon is no good to us, nor to our society. People will feel lonely more and more. The world becomes so indifferent. Interpersonal relationships are not harmonious. Its time that we took some measures to improve it. People living in the same zone can be organized to have som
35、e activities together. We should call on people to be friendly to each other. As a popular song says,” If everybody gives a little love to each other, the world will become the sea of love.”Study the picture above carefully and write an essay entitled “On Cultural Exchanges ” In the essay, you shoul
36、d (1) describe the pictures (2) interpret their meaning (3) give your opinion about the phenomenon. You should write about 200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points)There is no denying that the cultural exchanges are playing a more and more important role in the modern world. Firstly, lets have
37、 a look at the picture. A foreign lady is making a traditional Chinese painting of bamboos. It seems that she is totally indulged in her painting. The picture shows that people from foreign countries are interested in our traditional Chinese culture. They not only appreciate the traditional Chinese
38、paintings, music, costume, etc, but also begin to learn to how to make them. In this way, they hope to gain a better understanding of Chinese culture and thus can know the country better. Since our country became more open, our Chinese government has made great efforts to promote all kinds of exchan
39、ges with the outside world. These exchanges range from economics and education to culture. The cultural exchanges play a more and more important part in our life. Many channels are open for the foreigners to learn our traditional art. They can take some courses in some special schools and many profe
40、ssionals can be their teachers.In my opinion, the cultural exchange is good to all of us. It is an efficient way to introduce our Chinese culture to the world. In this way, people in the foreign countries can know more and more about China. Some biased views about our country can be dispelled.Study

42、ern world, mental health has become a matter of great concern. Firstly, lets look at the pictures above. There are four pictures, which give us some advice about how to be in good mental health. The first picture tells us that happiness depends not on what you have, but on what you can give. The sec
43、ond one shows that you cannot decide what the weather is like, but you can decide what mood you are in. The third one shows that you should examine your own words and deeds before correcting the others. The fourth one shows you should not be always upset and should say to yourself everyday, ” Im rea
44、lly good.”These pictures indicate that we should try to be in good mental health. Nowadays, it is a common phenomenon that people go to have some psychological consultations. This is because people in the modern world are facing great pressure from work and life. Being depressed for a long time, som
45、e problems will come out in peoples mental health. These problems will do great harm. They may cause some health problems and affect our daily life and work. To be a healthy person, mental health seems to be more important.To become a real healthy modern man, we should take the advice of the picture
46、s. Besides, we should remember some important points. Firstly, we should be open with people. Talk with your family and your friends when you meet some difficulties. Secondly, we should be sympathetic. Since we are a part of a society, we should be concerned with it. Thirdly, we should spend some ti
47、me in reading, listening to the music and learning to lessen our pressure. In this way, we can become a healthy modern man, ready to take on any challenges.Study the picture above carefully and write an essay entitled “On the Essential Responsibility of the Professor” In the essay, you should (1) de

(20 points)The picture shows a common phenomenon among our professors nowadays. In the picture, a professor is on a thick pile of research papers. Th
49、ere are so many papers that he is high in the air and far away from his students. And the student shouts at him, ”Professor, the blackboard is here. Look downward please.”This is a satirical cartoon which describes vividly a kind of common phenomenon among some professors in the universities. Nowadays, some professors are indulged in composing his endless research papers in order to get some fame in their research fields and thus to be promoted to a higher position. They spend so much time in thesis composing that there is little time for them to think about how to teach th
