In most countries in the world, advertising is common. You can see posters on doors, signs on buses, pictures in magazines, and commercials on TV. Though these signs of advertising are often disliked, I feel that, overall, advertising has very positive results. The harmful effects of advertising are obvious. When you are listening to beautiful music on the radio, a commercial is disturbing when it interrupts your program and changes your mood. Television commercials are the worst of all. Your program is stopped, and you are forced to watch an advertisement unless you actively change the channel or leave the room. I think that there should be laws to limit the advertisers right to interrupt TV and radio programs. In general, however, I think that the positive results of advertisements are beneficial to society and individuals. When I do shopping, I can use advertisements in newspapers to compare prices, features, and quality of the product I want to buy. By being more informed, I can buy something that will benefit me in the long run. With advertisements, people save a lot of time in shopping, looking for jobs, etc. Adversity leads to prosperity. 逆境通向成功。All in all, for a wise and educated shopper, the helpful effects of advertising outweigh the harmful effects.【学习要点】 commercial商业广告 benefit me in the long run从长远来说对我有益。比较in the short run: 从短期来说 all in all 总的说来；总之【要点提示】is seldom welcome; and those who want it the most always like it the least. 忠言逆耳，就是最需要忠告的人也总是最不喜欢它。结构分析：.

ConclusionAs far as I am concerned, I am in favor of / against TV ads because But 模拟训练参考范文My View on Advertisements on TV Nowadays advertisements are very common. Whenever you turn on TV, you are likely to see ads. The advertisers are trying to inform you of the many different sorts of up-to-date products on the market. Besides, it often occurs while you are absorbed in watching a wonderful film on TV, endless commercials interrupt you from time to time, and make you quite annoyed. There are two reasons, I think, for the growing number of ads on TV. First, in a competitive economy, the consumer usually has the choice of several different brands of the same product. Thus, manufacturers are confronted with a problemhow to keep their sales high enough to stay competent in the business. They solve this problem by advertising. By advertising, each producer tries to convince the consumers that its product is preferable. Second, most consumers are interested in ads. They want to get from TV ads the first hand information about new products, which enables them to choose the one they like best. Consequently, ads increase a lot on the TV screen. As far as I am concerned, I am in favor of TV ads because most of them are interesting and informative. But there is no denying that some TV ads are tedious and boring. So I feel TV stations are faced with an arduous艰苦的 task to strengthen the control of ads, to improve their quality and to make them attractive.Test 2 Bicycle自行车After the work is done, repose is sweet. 工作到完毕，休息感甜蜜。【写作佳句及惯用表达】1.A bicycle is really an important means of transportation in China.在中国，自行车是一种重要的运输工具。2.

Compare the advantages of these two ways of reading. Which do you prefer? Why?Write a composition of about 150 words on the following topic: Borrowing Books or Buying BooksSome people like to borrow books to read, while others prefer to buy books. Both ways have their advantages. Borrowing books to read has two major advantages. First, you just urge yourself to finish as soon as possible the books you borrowed from a library or from other people. You will be fined if you fail to return them to the library in due time, or you will lose trust if you keep books of others too long, and they will probably refuse to lend you any more books. So you have to read it desirously, forgetting your meals and sleep. On the other hand, if you buy a book, you may put it away, thinking it is yours and you dont have to finish it quickly. Another advantage of borrowing books enables you to read books without spending any money. In recent years, more and more books come out each year, and the prices of books keep on rising. Ordinary people cannot afford to buy so many books they want to read either for information or entertainment. In addition, often I need to read only a part of some books. It is unnecessary for me to buy them. However, there are some kinds of books that I have to buy. The first kind is reference books such as dictionaries and encyclopedias I need to use frequently. The second kind is textbooks I need to read more carefully in order to understand well. And it is also necessary for me to buy some famous literature books like The Complete Short Stories of Mark Twain, The Old Man and the Sea, Romance of the Three Kingdoms.So I think books are of two kinds: books for borrowing and books for buying. I like to borrow books that I read mainly for entertainment or read a part of. And for those books like reference books, I prefer to buy. Whether to borrow or to buy books, I think, mostly depends on the kinds. All roads lead to Rome. 条条大路通罗马。【学习要点】 You will be fined if you fail to return them to the library in due time. 你如果到期不还书就会被罚款。 reference books 参考书，工具书 encyclopedia百科全书Call a spade a spade.直言不讳。【要点提示】All that speak us fair are not friends.说我们好话的人并非都是朋友。本文为议论文。作者首先提出自己的观点：Both ways have their advantages. 在正文中作者对比买书，举出充分的论据来说明借书的好处，然后作者又说明有些书需要买。这样，避免了使观点绝对化，又很客观地说明了问题。最后作者得出结论：So I think books are of two kinds: books for borrowing and books for buying. 接着又用两句话解释了该结论。文章观点明确，论据充分，论证严密。本文关联词语使用恰当：表示对比：On the other hand 表示列举：First，Another., In addition（此外，引出补充论据）表示对比或转折：However【模拟训练3】35 MIN.Fiction (such as novels and short stories) can teach us more about life than textbooks can.
