A businessman wishes to make greater profit; a farmer expects good harvests; a student tries to learn more and better.However, one should be sensible about whether his ideal is well founded or not. If it is, one has to plan and work hard for its realization. Effort, skill and persistence are all necessary. And very often, one has to get help from others, including advice and support in one form or another.My ideal is to become a doctor. It is said that the field of medicine is a well-paid profession, but I take it as a lofty profession entrusted with saving peoples lives. To realize my ideal I have concentrated on laboratory work to develop the analytical skills necessary to become a qualified doctor. Im sure I will persevere in this pursuit.【译文赏析】理想人人都有理想。商人的理想是赚取更大的利润；农民希望获得更大的丰收；学生则争取学得更多、更好。每个人都为实现理想多多少少付出了努力。然而，人们应该想想自己的理想是否建立在扎实的基础上。如果是，那么人们就必须为实现理想而做出计划、辛勤工作。努力、技巧和恒心都是必备要素。人们还常常需要从别人身上获得帮助，包括各种形式的建议和支持。我的理想是成为一名医生。医师是一个薪水不错的职业，而我则视之为一个治病救人的高尚职业。为了实现我的理想，我必须集中精力于实验室的工作，从而培养作为一名合格医师所必备的分析技巧。若能持之以恒，我相信我能实现自己的理想。【词汇表达亮点】strive v. 努力，奋斗with more or less effort 用或多或少的努力realize v. 实现be sensible about 意识到persistence n. 坚持It is said that 据说well-paid adj. 收入高的，待遇优厚的lofty adj. 高尚的entrust with. 委托给某人concentrate on 集中注意力于analytical adj. 分析的qualified adj. 合格的persevere in 坚持pursuit n. 追求；职业2013 年 12 月英语四级作文预测：论灾难Directions: Write a composition entitled On Disasters. You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese: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，要积极面对人生。3. 我的看法。【范文】On DisastersAn old saying goes: Life is full of roses and thorns. As we all know, ones 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, its even worse if one cant drag himself out of the grief in that mental break-down is more serious than the disaster itself. Instead of indulging oneself in sadness, one should take positive attitude towards life and contribute to the reconstruction of his or her life and hometown.As for me, if I am lucky enough to survive in 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 endeavor to recover from the sadness as soon as possible and be certain to be strong and supportive to the recovery work.【译文赏析】论灾难俗话说：“生活总是喜忧参半。 ”众所周知，人的生命里充满着各 种意想不到的事，有些很美好，有些却是不幸的。洪水、雪灾以及地震 这些巨大的灾难总是让人无比沉重。但是，如果一个人不能从悲痛里恢复过来，那么精神上的打击要远比灾难本身严重。因此在灾难面前，我们不应该沉湎于悲痛，而要积极 地面对人生，努力帮助他人重生和重建家园。如果我在一场灾难中幸存下来，我会通过捐款或者献血，尽力去帮助其他受灾人群。要是我在灾难中受伤了，我也会尽快从伤痛中恢复，坚强起来，全力支持灾后重建工作。【词汇表达亮点】unexpected adj. 想不到的；意外的；突如其来的disastrous adj. 灾害的；灾难性的，悲惨的weigh one down 打垮某人drag out 拖延，从 .走出来grief n. 悲痛；悲伤Indulging in 沉溺于，纵情于，享受于contribute to 有助于，促进，加剧survive v. 幸免于，幸存，生还endeavor to 努力，尽力2013 年 12 月英语四级作文预测：地铁禁止吃东西Should Food Be Banned on the Subway?1. 对于禁止在地铁和公交车上吃东西，有人表示赞成2. 有人则表示反对3. 你的看法 【范文】Should Food Be Banned on the Subway?Currently, some cities are considering a food ban on subways, which has sparked heated discussion. Some people say food should be banned because of the trash and rats they attract. And, garbage from discarded food can cause track fires. Beyond sanitary and mechanical concerns, food can also cause fights, as was discovered last week by one passenger who criticized a woman eating steamed stuffed bun on the subway.However, some others are opposed to the idea. They argue that people like eating in the train in the morning because they dont have enough time to eat at their houses or restaurants. Sometimes that may be the only time or meal a transit rider may be able to eat especially when traveling long distances. Besides, there are people, for example diabetics, who do require food at various times to maintain blood-sugar levels.Personally, Im against the ban because of the huge inconvenience it would cause to commuters, and the expense involved in enforcing it. Still, I believe we should have a little common courtesy. I think we all have responsibility to try to treat our subway system and fellow riders with respect, and that extends to food as well.2013 年 12 月英语四级六级作文预测：给孩子配手机Giving Children Cell Phones1. 目前越来越多的家长给孩子配手机，目的是2. 也会带来一些问题3. 你的看法【范文】Giving Children Cell PhonesMore and more children are showing up at school each September with cell phones. Many parents buy cell phones to their children because it is a nice safety measure. It gives those working parents a little sense of control and security to know when their children are off campus and on their way home.But having a cell phone might be a problem. Parents may find themselves facing a frightening bill at the end of the month. The reason: chatting on the phone and sending text messages can soon become the favorite pastime of preteens and teenagers. Worse still, cell phones in schools can lead to classroom distractions, text-message cheating and inappropriate photographs.Knowing their children can always be reached is reassuring for parents. But before buying their child a cell phone, I think parents should decide if the child is really capable of managing his or her own phone. Besides, parental control must be exercised in the use of the phone. For example, they should set limits on how long the child is allowed to stay on the phone.2013 年 12 月英语四级六级作文预测：代沟Directions: Write a composition entitled Generation Gap. You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:1. 现代生活越来越好，但老年人和年轻人之间的代沟却依然不可逾越2. 产生代沟的原因3. 解决的办法【范文】Generation GapThough many aspects of our social life have been improved, the generation gap between the youths and the olders remain and even grows wider.In my opinion, because of the influence of individualism from western civilization, the youths do not blindly follow what the elders say, that causes the gap. The young are creative and revolutionary, always go along with the trend and like changing. While the old, accustomed to everything of the past, are hostile to change. Also with more and more different beliefs and philosophical ideas, it is natural the young hold different opinions from the old.I think in order to narrow the gap, both parts should try to understand and respect each other, instead of trying to change others as they wish. Diversity doesnt mean conflict so long as they hold the right attitude towards the problems.【译文赏析】代沟虽然我们社会生活的诸多方面，已经得到了改善，但年轻人与老年人之间的代沟仍然存在，甚至在扩大。依我来看，因为受西方个人主义的影响，年轻人不再盲目跟随老人们的说法，而这导致了差距。年轻人富有创造性和革新的力量，始终顺应潮流，喜欢变化。而老人们则习惯了过去的一切，不喜欢改变。同时也有越来越多的不同信仰和哲学思想，这自然造成了年轻人与老年人持有不同意见。我认为，想要缩小差距，双方应尽量相互理解和尊重，而不是以他们自己的意愿来试图改变别人。只要他们持有应对问题的正确态度，多元化并不意味着冲突。【词汇表达亮点】aspect n. 方面，方位influence n./v. 影响individualism n. 个人主义civilization n. 文明blindly adv. 盲目地，轻率地creative adj. 创造性的revolutionary adj. 革命的 n. 革命者trend n. 趋势，潮流 v. 趋向be accustomed to 习惯于be hostile to 对有敌意，与敌对philosophical ideas 哲学思想narrow v. 使变窄；缩小 adj. 狭窄的diversity n. 差异；多样性conflict n./v. 冲突so long as 只要 2013 年 12 月英语四级作文预测：上网搜答案We Shouldnt Totally Turn to the Internet1. 现在不少人一遇到问题就上网搜答案2. 这种现象可能产生的影响3. 你认为应该怎么做【范文】We Shouldnt Totally Turn to the InternetNowadays, Internet has become an indispensable part in our life, and we use it for various purposes, such as searching useful information and chatting online. However, now more and more people turn to the Internet for help whenever they have trouble in finding solutions to their problems, and this phenomenon has aroused the publics attention.Relying on the Internet to solve all our difficulties can have bad impacts on us. On one hand, since we can always settle the troubles by searching solutions online, we can become very lazy and dont bother to think up answers by ourselves, which can hinder the development of creative thinking. On the other hand, the answers online may be inaccurate or wrong. If we use them without thinking the credibility of them, we may make serious mistakes someday.As far as Im concerned, we shouldnt completely depend on the Internet to settle problems. When we come across some difficulties, wed better try our best to find possible solutions. If we make great efforts and still cant come up with an answer, then we can surf online to search solutions. But we should question the correctness of these answers before we adopt them.2013 年 12 月英语四级作文预测：亚健康1、随着现代化的不断加速发展，全世界的物质生活水平不断攀升，但人们却日益受到“亚健康”这种不良状态的威胁。2、亚健康的具体表现及在我国的蔓延程度（据调查，北京 75%、上海 72%、广州 70%的上班族都处于亚健康状态）How to Deal with Sub-healthWith the modernization of the world, peoples standard of living has improved a lot.

You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:1. 有些人认为信息时代不再需要传统图书馆了，因为2. 有些人认为信息时代传统图书馆仍然有重要作用，因为3. 你的看法There has been a heated discussion about libraries at the age of information among people. Some people, especially the younger generation, challenge the value of conventional libraries. When they need any information in their studies or work, they can turn to their computers for help. For this reason, they do not need to go to a library for borrowing or returning one or two books.While others, including most old people as well as scholars, value libraries. They love libraries because they can enjoy peace and quietness in an isolated spiritual world. And they also have access to rare academic works needed for their studies in the libraries.In my view, conventional libraries are still available though there is still much room for improving. At the Age of Information, as long as knowledge is respected and cherished, libraries wont extinct from our lives. On the other hand, li
