televisionwith the development of advertising, our television programs are flooded with numerous advertisements every day. in my opinion, advertising on television is a negative force in society because they create all kinds of impossible fantasies and they are often dishonest and offensive. in the first place, ads always show happy, rich people, and they make life look easy. however, life is not always easy; on the contrary, it is often very difficult. not all people live in big and beautiful houses and dress in fashionable clothes. advertising gives the audience an untruthful picture of reality; therefore, it acts as a distorted social mirror.secondly, television programs are constantly interrupted by ads, which is annoying and offensive to the majority of audience. if tv stations need money, cant they come up with better ways instead of advertising?all in all, advertisement on television is a form of pollution. they invade our visual space and they are a great nuisance.2000college life should be varied and colourful. and extracurricular activities are an important aspect of it. however, at present, there is much room for improvement in this regard. write an article to the university radio entitled:the importance of extracurricular activitiesin the first part of your article you should clearly present your view, and in the second part you should support your opinion with appropriate details. in the last part you should bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or summary.the importance of extracurricular activitiespeople have different ideas about how students should spend their school days. some believe that students should spend the whole day on academic studies. others believe that extracurricular activities should be a required part of every school day. i think both ways have their advantages. but i prefer the latter. as a student, our main task is to concentrate on our academic study. we have to attend classes, reading books and doing assignments. only by working hard can we learn our courses well. but i dont think we should spend every hour and minute on academic study. a proverb says, “all work and no play makes jack a dull boy.” without good health and strong body, how can we improve our study efficiency and make great achievements in our academic study? besides, spending the whole day on academic study may make us exhausted and weak. we should find other meaningful things to do besides studying. for example, doing extracurricular activities can make students life more colorful and beneficial. there are various forms of exercise. my favorite one is football. i play football with my classmates for one hour every afternoon. after a days hard work, how nice it is to stretch my arms and legs! by playing football ive got both joy and strength. i always look energetic.actually doing extracurricular activities doesnt disturb our study if we make full use of our time. instead it does help us study more efficiently. we can be good at learning as well as extracurricular activities. so i suggest that students do extracurricular activities along with their academic studies.2001travel has become part of our life. and more and more of us have come to know the significance of travel through our own experience.write on answer sheet one a composition of about 150 words on the following topic:travel

or at home. as a matter of fact, travel has become part of our life. this situation is encouraging, for it not only broadens peoples minds to the extend which may not be reached previously, but also relaxes the m physically, which help people work out mental problems more actively.one of my best friends is so exclusively engaged in his works that he did not even know what was happening out of his own discipline. whats worse, his progress was nearly little. after accepting my advice, he traveled a few cities and towns. the experience gave him a good opportunity of learning. today, he gets a bumper harvest in his knowledgethe longstanding dream of entering graduate school comes true.in conclusion, travel opens our mind because it enables us to know about the history and culture of a nation. in a way, going on travels is like reading books.2002nowadays people are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of health. and they have different ways to stay healthy. for example, some exercise every day; others try to keep a balanced diet. what do you think is the best way to stay healthy?write a composition of about 150 words on the following topic:the best way to stay healthyyou are to write in three parts.in the first part, state what you think is the best way.in the second part, support your view with one or two reasons.in the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.the best way to stay healthynowadays people are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of health. and they have different ways to stay healthy. for example, for my part, the best way to stay healthy is the combination of proper physical exercise and a balanced diet.both physical exercise and a proper diet are essential to health. for one thing, physical exercise not only builds a persons body, but also helps to reduce his or her unnecessary fat. indeed, this is very important since the redundancy of fat has been medically proved to be a cause of various diseases, some of which are even fatal.for another, a balanced diet can provide a person with the right kind and amount of nutrition required for the operation of our organs. as we know, a multitude of elements are effective in keeping our body running properly. a deficiency in any of them will result in some dysfunction. yet a balanced diet may prevent this from happening.all in all, i believe the best way to keep fit is talking proper physical exercise plus staying on a balanced diet. neither is dispensable if we are to enjoy sustainable health.2003people in modern society live under a lot of pressure, from education, career, or family. so it is important for them to keep a good mood under whatever circumstances. write on answer sheet one a composition of about 150 words on the following topic:the importance of keeping a good moodyou are to write in three parts.in the first part, state specifically what your view is.in the second part, support your view with one or two reasons.in the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.the importance of keeping a good moodmodern people are supposed to endure a lot of pressure, from education, career, or family. however, not all people can manage to tide them over. there are often reports of someone going insane or someone committing suicide. those unfortunate people are not intelligently poor. yet they were doomed only because they suffered troubled minds or mixed feelings. from their experiences, i would argue that keeping a good mood is all too important.living in a good mood under whatsoever circumstances is important in at least two ways. for one thing, it can help one foster friendly interpersonal relation. instead of treating colleagues or classmates as rivals or opponents, one will try to cooperate with them and benefit from them. one will work harder to keep paces with others or surpass them rather than complaining or get consumed by jealousy all the time. for another, a good mood can help one put disappointments and frustrations in the right perspective. thinking that failure is the mother of success, one can well survive the temporary blows and look forward to the bright future. both friendship and optimism derived from keeping a good mood or mentality are effective outlets for pressures whatsoever.thus, we need not only to build a strong body but also keep a good mood in order to face the pressures or challenges of modern society. while most people are aware of the importance of the former, quite a proportion of people fail to recognize the significance of the latter.2004nowadays young people tend to phone more often than write to each other. so, some say that phones will kill letter writing. what is your opinion?write on answer sheet one a composition of about 150 words on the following topic:will phones kill letter writing?you are to write in three parts.in the first part, state specifically what your view is.in the second part, support your view with one or two reasons.in the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.letter writing will not be killednowadays, young people choose to phone each other rather writing letters. but even if so, i still maintain that letter writing will never be killed by phones, though we have stepped into the information age.first, letters can express your subtle feelings. with the increase of the living pace of modern society, we find that there is a lack of communication now. sometimes when you are speaking to someone that you care and love on the phone, you are so shy that its too hard to express any of your feelings towards him/her. your throat seems to be blocked! at this time, letters will help. without any embarrassment, you can just write down your deep concern and love on a piece of paper. when you drop the letter into the pillar-box, you will feel what he/she will receive is not only a letter, but also your deepest love. secondly, letters can be kept as a record of memory, while phones cannot. just imagine, when you open an old box of letters and read them years later, a lot of beautiful and indelible memories will be brought back to you. what an irreplaceable feeling it is! and i believe, this feeling is something that you can definitely never experience through several phone calls.all in all, letter writing will absolutely survive and even thrive in the information age. phones can never kill it, neither will anything.2005the students union of your university is planning to hold an arts festival next semester, and they are inviting students to contribute their ideas and suggestions as to how it should be organized or what should be included.write on answer sheet two a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:my idea of a university arts festivalyou are to write in three parts.in the first part, state specifically what your idea is.in the second part, provide one or two reasons to support your idea or describe your idea.in the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.my idea of a university arts festivalan arts festival will no doubt add much to our campus life, since it, like other group activities, will be a stage on which students from different colleges and departments communicate and share their interests. this festival, of course, needs to be well organized, so as to get everyone involved. while all kinds of activities contribute to this great festival, lectures by leading artists in this country will surely make it more successful.first of all, influential stars are always an attraction to involve the greatest number of participants. the main purpose of this festival, just as other campus activities, is to add variety to students life. its results and influence need to be measured more by the number of participants than by their artistic level it will display. the more people get involved, the more successful the festival. while a few of the students are busy performing during the festival, lectures permit the majority to sit there listening and asking their masters questions.secondly, face-to-face communication between students, some of whom are potential artists, and the leading artists is always a bridge linking textbook knowledge and practice. university students spend most of their time learning from textbooks or at the library, but knowing how to do is quite different from doing it. the experience of and advice from those practitioners in the fields of music, movie, and painting help university students to think what else they need to learn and what they will do in the future. whats more, lectures by well-known experts will enhance the influence of the arts festival and the university. arts festivals are held in many universities in the city, but they are organized in more or less the same way. as far as i know, lectures are seldom part of them. therefore, it will promote the reputation of our festival, which is a new comer in the city.in a word, it will be beneficial to invite some experts to give lectures. it will get more students to get involved, students will benefit from lectures by experts, and it will draw more public attention to the festival.2006recently a beijing information company did a survey of student life among more than 700 students in beijing, guangzhou, xian chengdu, shanghai, wuhan, nanjing, and shenyang. the results have shown that 67 percent of students think that saving money is a good habit while the rest believe that using tomorrows money today is better, what do you think?write on answer sheet two a compositions of about 200 words.you are to write in three parts.in the first part, state specifically what you opinion isin the second part, support your opinion with appropriate detail.in the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.you should supply an appropriate title for you composition.using tomorrows moneysome of you may have heard about the story of two old ladies. one said before taking the last breath with a sigh, finally ive saved enough money to buy an apartment ; the other remarked with a relieved smile, at last ive paid off all the mortgage for my house. this make-up story vividly shows two different attitudes of consumption; saving money or using tomorrows money. personally i would rather use tomorrows money so as to enjoy a quality life before it is too late.with the rapid development of market economy and increasing income, china has already entered a consumption era and it is natural for people to seek after material things and pleasure. using tomorrows money will help people satisfy their needs. for example, nowadays the housing in beijing is getting more and more expensive; as a result, lots of young people cannot afford a decent apartment. to solve the problem we can borrow money from the bank. with the bank loan, we can have our own shelter right away, which will definitely facilitate our life and work a great deal. moreover, using tomorrows money can also help those in difficulties, ensure them a better future. in some rural areas in china, quite a few talented students might lose the opportunity of higher learning simply because they could not pay their college tuition in the past. now by asking for loans from the government, more students are able to attend college, which will offer them a brighter future.surely using tomorrows money cannot only meet the urgent needs of a group of people, but also enable some enjoy a better life earlier. but we need to be realistic about the burden we can shoulder at the same time when spending tomorrows money because the debt has to be paid back some day in the future.2007nowadays the internet has become part of peoples life, and millions of young people have made friends online.write on answer sheet two a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:is it wise to make friends onlineyou are to write in three parts.in the first part, state specifically what your opinion is.in the second part, support your opinion with one or two reasons.in the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.online friends, live resourcesas i see it, making friends online should be encouraged, especially for english learners in china. online communication with native speakers of english can significantly increase ones knowledge in english and the foreign culture, and more importantly, the motivation in learning and using the language.to begin with, online chatting is a simulation of everyday conversation in real life, which greatly improves the participants english. when connected to the internet, english is the only language to communicate with others. and one is forced to exhaust his repertoire of english to express ideas and feelings, and to keep the conversation going. in this virtual environment, one learns the basic expressions and techniques of english communication much faster than in english classes. furthermore, while the knowledge of the language itself increases through online chatting, one also
