  Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic More Candidates for Civil Servant. You should write at least 120 words, and base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese) below:
  1、 现在有越来越多的大学应届毕业生报考公务员,带来了一定的不利因素;
  2、 列举两到三个不利因素加以论述;
  3、 你对此有何看法。
  【思路点拨】
  本文是一篇主要论述大学生报考公务员增多的原因和对此看法的文章。从提纲可以看出,文章是侧重分析这一现象背后深层次的原因。所以第一段简单阐述大学生报考公务员增多的现象并分析原因;第二段可用论证或是举实例的方法列举其不利因素;第三段提出作者观点或是针对这一现象的负面影响的对策。
  【参考范文】
  More Candidates for Civil Servant
  Nowadays many college graduates apply for civil servant positions. It is true that the positions are ideal in terms of incomes, employment security and respect of others. However, the ever increasing number of applicants doesn't necessarily mean a good thing. The fever for civil servant has brought some side effects. The side effects are listed as follows:
  Firstly, many students apply for the positions for wrong reasons. Some of them apply just because their friends do it or because their parents want them. Some, instead of aiming at serve the people, have the intention of enjoying the interests and power brought by their future position. Secondly, too many candidates compete for limited positions. Take such hot positions as those in the judicial branch of government for example, it is estimated that one matriculate is selected out of 200 candidates. More worse, with the flow of most talents to such positions, those positions that are important for social welfare but inferior in personal welfare are left uninterested. This should arouse our deep concern.
  For my part, college students should be cautious when deciding whether to apply for the positions. On the one hand, they should not follow others blindly. On the other hand, there are plenty of ways of employment and self-employment, so why crowd on one bus? In a word, the fever should be cooled down.
  【点评】
  本文属于现象解释型作文。首先通过对当前很多人报考公务员这一现象进行阐释,接着讨论造成这一想像的原因,最后总结全文,表达自己对此的观点。文中精彩词汇包括:apply for,the ever increasing number of,compete for,arouse our deep concern,cooled down。其中句式It is estimated that…;以及疑问句的使用So why crowd on one bus?也成为文章亮点。
  例文二
  Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic Media and Shopping. You should write at least 150 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:
  1. 当今,各种媒体非常发达,人们通过媒体购物相当普遍起来;
  2. 媒体购物给人们带来很多方便,同时也暴露出其弊端;
  3. 我的看法。
  【思路点拨】
  提纲第1点指出一种新兴事物时下非常流行,提纲第2点针对比该事物的优势和缺陷,提纲第3点要求表明“我”的看法,由此可判断本文应为利弊对比型作文。根据所给提纲,本文应包含如下内容:描述时下媒体发展迅猛,媒体购物也逐渐流行;阐述其优点和弊端;最后谈谈自己的看法拟或是提出对策如何最大限度的减少其弊端的影响。网络课堂对传统课堂的挑战;提出关于网络课堂是否会取代传统课堂的两种不同观点并说明理由;表明“我”的态度并说明理由。
  【参考范文】
  Media and Shopping
  With numerous technological advances, various kinds of media have been well developed. As a result, an increasing number of people are fond of purchasing goods with the help of media, such as newspapers, radio stations, TV stations and the Internet.
  As we know, there are always two sides to everything and shopping via media is no exception. On the one hand, it saves much time, money and effort to purchase goods through media since you don’t have to go to the shops in person. Besides, you can choose what you want from an enormous variety of goods on display. On the other hand, you may be cheated sometimes by the false information and suffer a considerable loss.
  As far as I am concerned, shopping via media brings great benefits to our life and our economy on the whole. At the same time, we need strengthened supervision over the information released via media. In this way, we can gain more benefits from shopping via media and reduce the possible harm to a minimum.
