1. Public Transportation

As part of domestic modernization, public transportation needs to be developed urgently in China. I can illustrate some examples.

There does not only exist serious traffic jams but also crowded buses, underground and railways. Commuters find it hard to get to work on time due to overcrowded buses or tubes. Travelers could hardly get on buses in big cities during weedends owing to fewer buses and more people. When Spring Festival is drawing near, there is much greater –ressure on public transportation since it has to deal with a large number of travelers rushing home. And travelers need special arrangements to go home. In a word, public transportation has become bottleneck to the advanc of Chinese economy.

To solve the above-mentioned problems, the departments concerned should carry out the following steps: to build more roads, highways or railways and to add buses or trains to the original lines. But ther funds have to be raised both from the government and the public.

There are three sources for fund raising. One is to raise the fares for all kinds of all transportation vehicles. Another is to increase the prices for various vehicles on sale. The third is to raise the prices of petrol and diesel oil in addtion to the governmental funds. If all this money to raise the prices of petrol and diesel oiil in addtion to the governmental funds. If all this money collected is used to improve transportation services, the situation will be bettered and favorable.The third step to take is to introduce new technology in order to raise the efficiency of vehicles. For instance, the speed of trains can be increased as much as two times so that two times as many people can be held. In this way, the pressure on public transportation can be dramatically alleviated. So in a word, we need to introduce new technology to raise the speed of vehicles while having built even wider roads and added more efficient trains and huses.

2. Only Stricter Traffic Laws Can Prevent Accidents

From the health pointg of view we are living in a marvelous age. We are immunized from birth against many of the most dangerous diseases. A large number of once fatal illnesses can now be cured by modern drugs and surgery. It is almost certain that one day remedies will be found for the most stubborn remaining diseases. The expectation of life has increased enormously. But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before, every day we witness the incredible slaughter of men, women and children on the roads Men versus the motor-car! It is a never-ending battle which man is losing. Thousands of people the world over are killed or horribly mutilated each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen.

It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel, his car becomes the extension of his personlity. Ther is no doubt that the motor-car ofter brings out a man’s very worst qualities. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become uecognizable when they are behind a steering wheel. They swear, they are ill-mannered and aggressive, willful as two-year olds and utterly selfish. All their hidden frustrations, disappointments and jeaslousies seem to be brought to the serface by the act of driving.

The surprising thing is that society smiles so benignly on the motorist and seems to condone his behavior. Everything, is done for his convenience. Cities are allowed to become almost uninhabitable because of heavy traffic; towns are made ugly by huge car parks; the countryside is desecrated by road networks; and the mass annual slaughter becomes nothing more than statistic, to be conveniently forgotten.

Is high time a world code were created to reduce this senseless waste fo human life. With

regard to driving, the laws of some countries are notoriously lax and even the strictest are not strict enough. A code which was universally accepted could only have a dramatically beneficial effect on the accident rate. Her are a few examples of some of the things that might be done. The driving test should be stadardized and made far more difficult than it is; all drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so; the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21; all vehicles should be put through stringent annual tests for safety. Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can impair a person’s driving ability. Present drinking and driving laws (where they exist) should be made much stricter. Maximum and minimum speed limits should be imposed on all roads. Governments should lay down safety specifications for manufacturers, as has been done in the USA. All advertising stressing power and performance should be banned. These measures may sound inordinately harsh, but surely nothing should be considered as too severe if it results in reducing the annual toll of human life. After all, the world is for human beings, not motorcars.

3. Population Control

Progress in science and the improvement of living conditions have led to the rapid growth of world population. Modern medicine, for example, has made it possible for babies to grow up healthily and for people to live longer. With improved living conditions particularly in the countryside, people tend to have larger families. As a result, the world population has increased so rapidly that it has now exceeded 6 billion.

But the overgrowth of population presents a threat to the existence of food supplies and shelter space. However, the limited productivity and scarce world resources can hardly meet the needs of the ever-increasing population. Thus, in the long run, the overgrowth of the world population will only harm mankind.

To guarantee the steady development of human society, mankind must realize the consequences resulting from a fast population growth and carry out a family planning program. Only by adopting effective meausres, can human society develop steadily and have a bright future.

4．Part-time Jobs for College Students

Nowadays, many college boys and girls take part-time jobs in their spare time. Some are employed by the companies near the campus, working as office clerks or computer programmers. Others have become salespersons for the commercial businesses. Foreign language students may serve as interpreters or translators where international cooperation is carried out. Or they may become tour guides for travel agencies. Also, it is a common practice for girl students to become governesses helping children with their school work in their homes.

Many people, including some professors and parents, make no secret of their disapproval of this. On the one hand, they argue that academic pursuit is the main task for college students and that taking part-time jobs distracts their attention and consumes a lot of energy needed. On the other hand, professors and parents tend to believe that college boys and girls need to further cultivate their personality and develop their sense of responsibility before they can be ready for any serious jobs.

But in my opinion, every coin has two sides. It is true that the students’ major task is to study. It is also true that taking part-time jobs will take a lot of time and energy. However, if the students can learn to arrange their time properly, the professors and parents might as well be relieved from all their worries. As many students take jobs related to their fields of study, they can gain some first-hand experience instead of being distracted from their study. Moreover, treated as full adults

on their part-time jobs, they will develop their sense of responsibility very soon. When they finally graduate, they will find themselves in a more agreeable social environment.(280w)

5. Private Cars

A few years ago, having a private car might be a wild dream to many Chinese families. But today, you can see the number of private cars running along the road and street is increasing rapidly. Statistics show that one in every six families in big cities has a car. Some people say that it is good because the number of car ownerships indicates a country’s auto industry, which in turn shows the country’s general economic development. The fact that more and more people can afford a car demonstrates that people in China enjoy a higher standard of living than they did before. Besides, a private car also adds a new dimension to a family’s work, daily life and leisure activities.

Other people think differently. They argue that having private cars may not necessarily mean a more advanced society. It may bring about more stress, instead. More cars would consume more petroleum, produce more air pollution, and thus aggravate the already serious environmental problems. What’s more, another problem remains yet to be solved. Road conditions being what they are esp. in urban areas, accidents become a common occurrence, resulting in thousands of deaths per year. No wonder cars have been considered as the number one deadly weapon in the modern world.

I find some truth in both of the arguments mentioned above. I feel it a personal choice to buy a private car. If you can afford it and you really need it to get around, having a car is fine. But remember, try to use environment-friendly type of gasoline and take special care while driving. If you don’t have much need for cars in your work and life, there is no need to follow fashion or keep up with the Jones. Remember, when you cycle, you are living a healthy life and at the same time contributing to our environment protection.

6.Direction: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition entitled On Power Failure. You should write at least 120 words according to the following guidelines(given in Chinese): 1．很多城市缺电现象严重2．分析原因

3．提出建议On Power Failure

Recently, every morning when I wake up, I find my air-conditioner automatically turned off . I didn’t understand why at first , but soon I learned that there was a great shortage of electricity supply in our city – my air-conditioner turned off because of a power failure midnight.

With the rapidly developing industry and the ever-increasing population, demand for electricity supply is soaring. Besides, summers in recent years are much hotter than before , so most working places and households are air-conditioned , which consumes additional electricity.

Face with such a hard nut , we have to find ways to crack it . Above all , in western areas China , there is surplus of electricity supply. So , cities that are thirsty for electricity may ask for remote help. Then ,when we have electricity , we should remember to save it . Set your air-conditioners at 27C and you won’t feel less comfortable than when they are at 26C . In fact , some factories already shift their working hours to avoid the peak time of electricity consuming. My parents don’t work from Monday to Friday as before – they work form Saturday to Wednesday and have the following two days off instead. This is also a way out , isn’t it?

Title: Dictionary

(1) The dictionary is a living teacher.

(2) Skills will develop with your constant use of various dictionaries.

(3) But you should have one thing in mind.

Dictionary

The dictionary is living teacher. Whenever you come across a new word, just consult it and you will get a clear definition from it. Every student, no matter attending school or self-taught, should always have a dictionary at hand. As a study aid, it is convenient, inexpensive and allknowing. Skills will develop with your constant use of various dictionaries The more you use them, the more familiar you will become with them. Sooner or later, you will be quite skilled in finding the page, scanning the entries and locating the exact meaning of the new words.

But you should have one thing mind. As a language student, you should never depend too much on dictionaries. Basic language skills do not come from dictionaries, but from your practice. For some extensive reading, for example, you need not account to a dictionary every time you encounter a new word, you could just guess the meaning and skip it. Learn the language by listening, speaking, reading and writing more, and that is the only way to the mastery of a language.

Title: Help Children to Be Independent

The topic sentence is provided as follows:

(1) Today in China, many families have only one child.

(2) There are some ways to help children to be independent.

(3) To be independent is good for the children

You should write 160-200 words.

Help Children to Be Independent

Today in China, many families have only one child. So the children usually doted upon by all

family members. Gradually some of them get used to depending on their parents and lack the ability to solve problems independently.

There are some ways to help children to be independent. Firstly, the child should have a chance to see the world around him. He must understand that therere various competitions in this world, and everyone can find his right position in the society only by individual efforts. Secondly, the parents should give the child enough help to make him feel comfortable. Its impossible to ask a child not to depend on parents at once. A child needs help from the beginning. Without any help, the child may lose his faith. Thirdly, parents should let his child make decisions, which can temper his ability to deal with problems. A child should be praised when he is successful or when he fails. To be independent is good for the children, because no parents can accompany the children for the whole life. It is the child himself who is responsible for her own fate. Only an independent person can live and succeed in this world.

译文

帮助孩子独立起来

现今的中国，很多家庭都是独生子女家庭。所以孩子受到了所有家庭成员的宠爱。渐渐地他们习惯了依赖父母，缺乏了独立解决问题的能力。

有一些方法可以帮助孩子独立起来。第一，孩子应该有机会认识身边的世界。他必须知道世界上有各种各样的竞争，只有通过个人的努力才能找到自己的位置。第二，父母应该给他们提供帮助。开始的时候孩子都需要帮助，离开了父母的帮助他们会失去方向。第三，父母应该让孩子做决定，以此来锻炼他们处理问题的能力。当孩子成功或失败时他们都需要鼓励。 独立对于孩子是有利的。因为父母不能陪伴他们一辈子。他们要对自己的命运负责。只有独立的人才能够在这世界生存并取得成功。

Only Stricter Traffic Laws Can Prevent Accidents

Though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before, every day we cites the incredible slaughter of men, women and children on the roads. Man versus the motorcar! It is a neverending battle which man is losing. Thousands of people in the world are killed or horribly mutilated each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen.

只有制定更严格的法律才能防止事故发生

尽管现在幸福和长寿比以前更容易得到，但每天却有很多人丧身车轮。人和车的冲突永无止境，人却是受害者。世界上每年都有成千上万的人死于车祸，我们再也不能坐视不管。 有一种说法我认为是对的，每当人们手握方向盘的时候，他们的个性就显露出来了。勿容置疑汽车将人们的恶性显露出来。平时安静的人一开车马上变得让人认不出。他们变得具有攻击性，极度自私，像两岁孩子一样任性。

令人惊奇的是人们对于肇事者的态度十分纵容。为他们提供了各种便利条件。由于严重的交通拥挤，城市几乎变得不适合认居住。乡村也被各种公路网所污染。大量的交通死亡人数也只不过是一些数字，被人们所遗忘。

我们必须要建立一种世界制度来制止这种对生命的扼杀。一些国家关于驾驶的法律太松懈，甚至最严酷的法律也是那么无力。被普遍接受的世界制度对于降低事故率只会有利。

范文2

There is a heated discussion on airconditioner "price battle" in a newspaper.

Write an essay to the newspaper

1) giving a brief introduction to the issue.

2) stating your view about the "price battle", and

3) justifying your prediction.

You should write 160-200 words.

With the rapid advances in the living standard of the Chinese people in recent years, airconditioners have joined other household electrical appliances as items in great demand. However, output has far exceeded supply, as manufacturers have scrambled for sales in this profitable market. As a result, fierce competition has driven them to resort to all sorts of measures to pull ahead of their rivals and avoid going bankrupt.

These measures include aggressive advertising campaigns, offering a free gift with every purchase of an airconditioner, and most important of all, lowering prices. Price wars are a common

phenomenon whenever supply outstrips demand in a freemarket economy, and Chinas newly liberalized economy is no exception. Nevertheless, I do not think we will see a repeat of the recent price war in the airconditioner market in the future

I have three reasons for my prediction. The first is that the earlier round of pricecutting eliminated the lessefficient manufacturers from the industry; so there are fewer companies supplying the market. The second is that the government has taken measures to regulate the airconditioner market, eliminating the chaos that price wars entail. And the third is that with Chinas admission to the WTO, manufacturers will have to offer more attractive-not cheaper-products. 译文

随着近年来中国人民生活水平的快速提高，空调也同其他家用电器一样有了广大的市场。但是，产量远远超过了需求量，制造商只能在这一领域种挣扎。结果，激烈的竞争使得各个制造商采取了各种措施超过其竞争者而使自己免于破产。

这些措施包括大规模的广告，提供免费礼物，当然最重要的是降价。在供大于求的自由市场条件下，价格战是非常普遍的。中国也不例外。然而，我认为将来这种空调价格战不会再重演。

我有三个理由。第一，首轮的竞争已经淘汰了那些效率低下的制造商。所以市场上的供应将减少。第二，政府已经采取了措施来规范空调市场，消除了价格战的混乱。第三，中国加入WTO后，制造商只能靠提供更好的而不是最便宜的商品来赢得市场。

Directions: In the past people thought that education was only for young people. But now it is believed that education is for a lifelong progress. Do you agree or disagree?

You should use your own ideas, knowledge and experience and support your arguments with examples and relevant evidence.

You should write 160-200 words.

Education is an indispensable part in ones life. It illuminates human knowledge and culture, improving the development of science and technology. In my point of view, education is not only for young people, it should be proceeding in peoples whole life.

For one reason, our society is developing at an amazing speed along with the improvement of science and technology. If people stop studying after graduation from university, they can not keep pace with the steps of social development and easy to be eliminated in the fierce competition. Take the IT as an example. The amount of information is increasing in a speed dozens of times faster than before. If a person does not learn the latest knowledge they would not be able to develop new technology and products. Therefore, a person should take a lifelong learning.

As the saying goes, “never too old to learn.” To keep up with the development of world, a person must study during his whole life. Otherwise, he will lag far behind the others.

译文

在人的一生中教育是不可分割的一部分。它承载了知识和文明，促进了科学技术的进步。在我看来，教育不尽属于年经人，而是一个一生的过程。

其中一个原因就是随着科学技术的不断进步，社会发展的速度也是惊人的。如果大学毕业后

就停止学习，人们很难跟上社会发展的脚步，很容易在激烈的竞争中被淘汰。比如说IT技术。信息正在以以前几倍的速度增长。如果人们不学习最新的知识他们就不能发展新技术和产品。因此，人们应该终身学习。

正如谚语所说“活到老学到老“。为了跟随世界的脚步，人们必须终生学习，否则他们将落于人后。

Directions: Nowadays, young people tend to rush into independence. Many of them leave home to study or work while still in their teens. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this. You should write 160-200 words.

It is very common for young people to rush into independence. Especially, many teenagers leave home to study or work on their own. I am of the opinion that this new trend has both advantages and disadvantages.

It goes without saying that earlier independence helps young people to better understand the people around them and the world as a whole. They can gather more valuable social experience for their future life and career. Moreover, living on their own enable the young people to face and overcome difficulties by themselves.

However, every coins has two sides, we cannot turn a blind eye to the unavoidable disadvantages of early independence. On one hand, people in their teens are still immature. They need proper protection to all the temptations and evils of society. On the other hand, they are inclined to allot their time and energy inappropriately, for they may have to spend the lions share of their time earning their own living.

To sum up, young people should think the advantages and disadvantages of early independence seriously before making the decision to leave home and face lifes challenges alone. 译文

现在年经人很早就开始追求独立了。特别是许多十几岁的青少年离开家独自在外学习和工作。我认为这种新的趋势既有利也有弊。

毫无疑问，早期的独立有利于年经人更好地理解周围的人和事。他们可以积累更多未来生活和工作非常宝贵的经验。而且，独立生活使得年经人可以独立面对和克服困难。

但是任何事情都有两方面，我们不能忽视早期独立不可避免的弊端。一方面，人在十几岁的时候一般还不成熟。面对社会上的各种诱惑和邪恶，他们需要适当的保护。另一方面，由于这些孩子年龄小，他们也不能合理地利用自己的时间。

总之，年经在决定离开家独自面对生活的挑战时应该慎重考虑早期独立的利与弊。

2014英语五一冲刺圆梦高考5

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

From the health point of view we are living in a wonderful age. A large number of once fatal illnesses can now be cured by modern drugs and surgery. But though the pos sibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before, every day we witness the incredible killing of people on the roads. Man is opposite to the motor-car! It is a neverending battle which man is losing. Thousands of people are killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen.

It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering-wheel(方向盘) , his car becomes the extension of his personality. There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a man's worst qualities. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become uecognizable when they are behind a steering-wheel. They are rude, ill-mannered and aggressive. All their hidden frustrations and disappointments seem to be brought to the surface by the act of driving.

The surprising thing is that society smiles on the motorist and seems to forgive the behaviour. Everything is done for his convenience. Cities and towns are made ugly by huge car parks.

It is high time a world law were created to reduce this senseless waste of human life. With regard to driving, the laws of some countries are not strict and even the strictest are not strict enough. A law which was universally accepted could only have a beneficial effect on the accident rate. Here are a few examples of some things that might be done. The driving test should be made to a fixed standard and far more difficult than it is; all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so; the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21 ; all vehicles should be put through strict annual tests for safety. Present drinking and driving laws (where they exist) should be mad much stricter. Driving speed should be limited on all roads. These measures may sound extremely severe. But surely nothing should be considered difficult if it results in reducing the annual

toll of human life. After all, the world is for human beings, not motor-cars.

56. The main idea of this passage is______.

A. traffic accidents are mainly caused by motorists

B. thousands of people in the world are killed each yearC. only stricter traffic laws can prevent accidents

D. the laws of some countries about driving are too strict

57. Which of the following is right according to the passage?

A. It is right to build huge car parks in cities and towns. B. all the drivers must be asked to take a test every year.

C. Working by car can save time and money.

D. Society overlooks their rude driving.

58. Why does the author say" his car becomes the extension of his personality" ?

A. Driving can show his real self.

B. Driving can bring out his good character.

C. Driving can make a man excited and joyful.

D. Driving can make a man quiet and pleasant.

请认真阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A

We know the famous ones—the Thomas Edison and the Alexander Graham Bells —but what about the less famous inventors? What about the people who invented the traffic light and the windshield wiper(雨刮器)？Shouldn’t we know who they are?

Joan Mclean thinks so. In fact, Mclean, a professor of physics at Mountain

University in Range, feels so strongly about this matter that she’s developed a course on the topic. In addition to learning “who” invented “what”, however, Mclean also likes her students to learn the answers to the “why” and ”how” questions. According to Mclean,” When students learn the answers to these questions, they are better prepared to recognize opportunities for inventing and more motivated to give inventing a try.”

So, just what is the story behind the windshield wiper? Well, Mary Anderson came up with the idea in 1902 after a visit to New York City. The day was cold and stormy, but Anderson still wanted to see the sights, so she jumped aboard a streetcar. Noticing that the driver was struggling to see through the snow covering the windshield, she found herself wondering why there couldn’t be a built-in device for cleaning the window. Still wondering about this when she returned home to Birmingham, Alabama, Anderson started drafting out solutions. One of her ideas, a lever(操作杆)on the inside of a vehicle that would control an arm on the outside, became the first windshield wiper.

Today we benefit from countless inventions and innovations，It’s hard to imagine driving without Garrett A Morgan’s traffic light. It’s equally impossible to picture a world without Katherine J. Blodgett’s innovation that makes glass invisible, Can you picture life without clear windows and eyeglasses?

( ) 1. By mentioning “traffic light” and “windshield wiper”, the author indicates that countless inventions are.

A. beneficial, because their inventors are famous

B. beneficial, though their inventors are less famous

C. not useful, because their inventors are less famous

D. not useful, though their inventors are famous

( ) 2. Professor Joan McLean’s course aims to_____.

A. add color and variety to students’ campus life

B. inform students of the windshield wiper’s invention

C. carry out the requirements by Mountain University

D. prepare students to try their own invention

( ) 3. Tommy Lee’s invention of the unbreakable umbrella was _________.

A. not eventually accepted by the umbrella producer

B. inspired by the story behind the windshield wiper

C. due to his dream of being caught in a rainstorm

D. not related to Professor Joan McLean’s lectures

( ) 4. Which 0f the following can best serve as the title of this passage?

A How to Help Students to Sell Their Inventions to Producers?

B How to Design a Built-in Device for Cleaning the Window?

C Shouldn’t We Know Who Invented the Windshield Wiper?

D Shouldn’t We Develop Invention Courses in Universities?

A篇

第一篇文章是关于生活中离不开小发明，鼓励年轻人要善于把握发明的契机，推动社会的进步。

56.观点态度题，根据第一段but 处：but what about the less famous inventers? What about?.windshield wiper? 可以得出结论。这些人的发明不是很有名，确实非常有用的。答案为B。

57. 细节题。根据题干可以定位到原文第二段，However处正是考点出题处，引号当中的内容正是证明了Mclean的观点：when students learn the answers to these

questions,?.prepared to recognize?inventing a try.由此可以看出选项D正是原文的同义替换。

58.细节题。根据题干中的人物Tommy lee可以定位到原文第三段，引号当中正是他的观点：If I had not heard the story of the windshield wiper’s invention?..i never would have?.，可以判断出答案B正确。
