1. “A Letter to the Minister of Education”.

Your must base your composition on the following instructions (given in Chinese). Your composition should be no less than 120 words. Remember to write it neatly.

假设你是李文，请你就学校假期的安排给教育部长写一封信，向他建议将学校传统的长假调整为几次短假并陈述相关的原因比如：学习时间过长可能引起过度疲劳，而放假过长则可能导致浪费时间等等。 A Letter to the Minister of Education Dear Minister of Education,

I am a college student and I would like to suggest that students should be given several shorter breaks through the year instead of the traditional long vacations. The reasons why I am in favor of it are as follows.

First, students must work very hard at their studies. If they work for too long without a break, they may become overtired and discouraged. They may lose their enthusiasm for learning. Second, a very long vacation is not necessary. Students can recharge their energy in a few days rather than weeks.

Furthermore, many students do not use a long vacation wisely and just waste their time instead of doing something meaningful. And last but not least, vacations give students time to explore other interests and perhaps apply what they have been learning to the real world. If they always focus on their studies. They may lose touch with what is happening in their society.

In conclusion, I believe that students today would benefit more from several short vacations than they do form two long ones.

I do hope you can take my suggestion into consideration and make a final wise decision. Yours Sincerely Li Wen来源：考试大 2. Campus Life

Outline: 1. 有的大学生认为大学生活是丰富多彩、充实的 2.有的大学生对校园生活不满意

3.你理想中的大学生活是什么样的?谈谈你的感受。 Sample 1:

Early in senior high school, we longed to be enrolled in a university. Now the dream has come true. But how do we college students like our campus life?

Certainly, some relish it, finding it colorful and rewarding. Besides study, they spend considerable amount of time improving themselves in various aspects. Yet others do not think much of their college life, thus do not benefit as much. In their eyes, the university is just a bigger high school. The only difference is that they have more time at their disposal without parents looking over their shoulder.

As to me, college life is ideal if only I have abundant books to read, some bosom friends to keep me company, a couple of conscientious professors to instruct me, and an easy access to the Internet. Sample 2

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a letter of about 120-150 words to your cousin. In the letter, you should give him some advice how to prepare for the college entrance examination he is going to take next month. Dear Xiao Yan,

Your entrance examination is drawing near now, and I expect you to be very busy preparing

for it and a little nervous. But I believe that you will do well. As a good friend of yours and survivor of the exam, I am going to give you a few practical hints. It is no good to go on studying until the last minute of examination.

What you need in the exam is a clear mind. If you tire yourself out before the examination, you will not be mentally and physically ready for it. So a day or two before the examination just relax-leave your books shut and try some other things: get out into the open air; do some physical exercises; see a film; have fun.

When you take the exam, don't feel nervous. Breathe deeply and picture yourself performing well in all the tests. Then, read the questions through carefully and thoughtfully, and put your answer down to paper.

Last, you should pay attention to the time. Keep an eye on the clock and allot appropriate time to each section. I hope all these suggestions will be helpful to you. Best wishes for your success. [NextPage]

Sample 1：工作总结演讲

1. 简述上周五系学生会搞的一次以环保为主题的到某一湖区拾trash的活动。 2. 上述活动的效果及存在的问题。 3. 你的建议。 My fellow students,

Last Friday, the Students’ Union of our Department organized a clean-up project to Zhongshan

Lake. The purpose of this project is to enhance(加强)the environment awareness of general public. Late in the afternoon around 4, a group of 35 volunteers went to the park where we pick up the trash(垃圾)left by some tourists. As head of the group, I would like to report to you on the event. Actually, we did a wonderful job. When we were collecting the trash near the lake, many people paused to watch and then came to our help, showing considerable appreciation and support. But our work still left some to be desired. For one thing, since our project started late in the afternoon, hours were not long enough to attract enough people as we had predicted. For the other, lots of people passed by apparently not knowing what we were doing. But for these two drawbacks, our project could have been much better and more effective.

So, following are two of my suggestions: next time we have similar activities, try to start earlier, say in the morning. In this case we can put in more hours. And also, as we are getting along, we can put up some posters to tell people what we are doing and call their attention to environment protection. Thank you. Sample 2 真题演讲例文

I joined the department students' union the moment I entered this university, and have been the president of that organization one year later. Consequently, I have accumulated rich experiences in organization activities and communicating with students. Besides, I have a belief of serving for the benefits of students and that of the university as well.

If I am lucky enough to be elected the president, I will contribute great efforts to serve the interests of our school.

5. Should College Students Live on Campus v a. 有些人喜欢住在学校的宿舍，因为?? v b. 有些人喜欢住在校外，因为?? v c. 我的看法

There are an increasing number of students who choose to live off campus. Parents and university administrations understandably reacted differently. They voiced concerns about security and the threat of off-campus lifestyles getting out of control. However, college students have their own reasons for their choices.

Some students prefer to live on campus for the following reasons. First, campus residents are closer to classes, the library, and other resources, so they are more likely to succeed in college and complete their bachelor’s degree in four years. Furthermore, living in a dorm is a great opportunity to meet all kinds of new people and develop relationships with them, so students living on campus are more sociable. Last but not the least, living on campus is cheaper and more convenient. Often times, off-campus housing is more expensive than on-campus housing and while living on campus, you don’t have to worry about monthly rent payments and utility bills. Some others choose to live off campus because they believe living off campus they are more independent, with more privacy and a lot more quiet time. Living off campus gives them freedom from those dorm rules and allow them to set their own. The extra space also means that one can probably find a quiet place to study in the convenience of his own home.

As for me, I’m a faithful supporter of the former group because I, living on campus myself, have witnessed and enjoyed all the convenience and happiness of doing so. To me, living on campus undoubtedly adds an important element to the complete college experience. 6-1. How to improve student's mental health Sample 1

1、 大学生的心理健康十分重要 2、 因此，学校可以...... 3、 我们自己应当......

As is known to all, psychological health is as important as, if not more important than, physical health for a student during his/her growth. However, it’s quite worrying that nowadays some students are not quite psychologically healthy.

Undoubtedly, schools and universities should take great account in the responsibilities of students’ psychological health. Relevant courses and activities should be introduced to students so that they would be more aware of the significance of psychological health and find appropriate ways to maintain and improve it. For example, there should be a psychological counseling hotline or office for students to turn to when they need some psychological aid.

Of course no psychological health can be obtained without the efforts from the students themselves. From my perspective, what they can do is trying to stay positive, optimistic and follow the right guidelines from their schools. To be more specific, they can participate in some activities such as voluntary work to cultivate an opening and caring mind. Meanwhile, harmful impacts from the cyber space should definitely be avoided. [NextPage]

6-2面对压力、困难、挫折、灾难的主题 Sample 2 On Stress 面对压力

1. 压力是学生和工作的人都面对的事情。

2. 有人说压力过大，影响到身心健康，使人无法做出最佳表现;也有人说，压力能够使人不断进取，是一个人不断进步的必须条件。 3. 我的看法。 (1.有的人害怕压力。

2.有的人认为压力并不是一件坏事。 3.我的看法。)

With the fast pace of modern life, more and more people are living under great pressure. Some people are afraid of pressure. They think that the stresses and strains of work deprive them of joy and happiness. In their view, stress does harm to them both physically and mentally. That is why they prefer something less competitive and strenuous to something more demanding and challenging.

Others argue that stress isn't as bad as it often supposed to be. Unless it is overwhelming, a certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and stimulation. Without stress, you may slack off and idle away your time. It gives purpose and meaning to an otherwise meaningless, dull life. People under stress tend to bring their potential into full play and to realize their goals.

In my opinion, we shouldn't escape from stress but to face it as it is. What we can do is to adapt to the stress and to profit from it rather than to avoid it. Sample 3 On disasters 面对灾难

1. 人的一生中，可能会遇到一些灾难事件，给我们的生活带来意外的打击。 2. 面对灾难，我们应该坚强，不要过于沉湎于悲痛，积极面对人生。 3. 我的看法。

As we all know, one’s life is full of unexpected events, some of which are wonderful and some of which are disastrous. Those heavy blows, such as, floods, snowstorms, and earthquakes, threaten to weigh one down..

However, it’s even worse if one can’t drag himself out of the grief in that break-down in the sprit is more serious than the disaster itself. Instead of indulging oneself in sadness, one should be positive of life and contribute to the reconstruction of the hometown..

As to me, if I am not the victim of a disaster, I will try my best to help those who are suffering by donation blood or money. If I am a victim, I will try my best to recover from the sadness as soon as possible and try to be strong and supportive to the recovery work.. Sample4 On Crisis 论危机

1.危机的作用 2.举个例子说明 3.总结

Crisis is to us what illness is to our body. On the one hand, illness can harm our body and sometimes even put an end to our life. In the same manner, crisis can cause damage to our life and career. On the other, just as illness sometimes can harden and strengthen our body (our immune system), so crises, especially those minor crises in life sometimes can be turned into a bless to us.

A ready example that comes to mind is the earthquake crisis that has recently devastate most of Kyushu, Qinghai Province . Admittedly, it has cost us quite a lot. So many people were seriously injured and still so many even lost their lives. And our economy suffers a temporary setback and a slowdown. However we also have learned a great deal from it. Never has our nation been so united

or have our people been more aware of value of lives.

All in all, if we can bear in mind all the sufferings and ordeals we have experienced, then all our blood, tear, toil and sweat will not go unrewarded. 7. 投诉信 Sample1

(1)陈述你对学校图书馆的不满 (2)列举图书馆存在的问题 (3)希望能够得到改进 September, 11 Dear President,

I am a sophomore with the Department of Law. My name is Wang Ming. I am writing to you today to intimate you with something undesirable that I have found in the University Library. You may or may not realize how much our library, the landmark of our university or even of our town, weighs in our minds. It is a place we are most proud of and where we like to spend most of our time. In such an honorable place we have noticed recently some phenomena which hurt our eye. Some seats in the reading rooms are ‘permanently reserved vacant seats’, that is, some students “occupy” some seats they never come to use. What a terrible waste of valuable resource! Some other students are too noisy, talking among themselves, leaving mobile phone beeping anytime. And some library staff is ill-mannered and rude and not helpful most of time. These and other undesirable things have already done damage to the fame of our university and caused a lot of inconvenience to the users.

Dear President, we hope that something can be done to change and reverse the current situation. Let our cozy, comfortable, quiet, effective library come back. Best wishes

Yours sincerely，Wang Ming 真题投诉信和申诉信 Sample 2 申诉信 Dear Mr. Smith,

In return for your quality work, we have given all our business to you. Now that relationship is in jeopardy because of your untimely delivery of printing orders.

We know you can meet the deadlines. Your action of getting our printing requirements to us on time is greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Li Ming
