谈谈高考结束之后你最想做的一件有意义的事情，并阐明其理由。 The time when we will finish our high school life is just ahead. Among my various plans after the National Entrance examinations, to be a volunteer in my community is what I am eager to do most. Being a volunteer is both meaningful and rewarding for us students. Studying in the school for over 10 years leaves few chances for us to contribute to our community. Being a volunteer appears such s good way to do my best to help those in need. Whats more, through the work of a volunteer, I will be able to have a close look at the world around me and gain practical experience, which I believe will benefit me a lot. So to some extent, to be a volunteer can be considered as an unforgettable experience that prepares for my future life. It wont be long before I can carry out the plan. What is for sure is that it will certainly become the highlight of my summer vacation. 生活中，人们常说 “Thank you.” “Im sorry.”, 以及遇人点头微笑是应该具有的好礼貌。用 亲身体会谈谈好礼貌是对他人的尊重，同时也会使自己快乐。 As is universally believed, saying such words as “Thank you”, “Im sorry” or smiling when meeting others is considered good manners. Your politeness not only shows respect for others, but delights yourself as well. This is vividly illustrated by one of my experiences. It was a hot summer afternoon when I was taking a bus to school. A sudden brake plunged everyone forward, and I, accidentally, stepped on the foot of a middle-aged woman next to me. She appeared angry at first. But after I sincerely apologized to her, saying “I am so sorry”, she softened a little bit, and gave me a smile in return. It must have been my politeness that conveyed my respect to her, and then, her kindness warmed me to my hart. As is shown in the example above, politeness is just doing magic in turning conflict into harmony. What we can hope for is that our life will be more wonderful if a broad smile is always on our faces. 一副漫画：高三学习紧张，大家都在全力拼搏。但也看到一些学生去庙里烧香拜佛。 请你 描述这幅画的内容并谈谈你的看法。 Considering the importance of the coming college entrance examinations, students are now sparing no effort to prepare for it. We even see some students rush to temples to pray for their success, which I think is absolutely ridiculous. From my perspective, the key to success lies only in ones continuous efforts. As the saying goes, God help those who help themselves. Therefore, it is never sensible for us to count on Buddha to bring us good exam results and praying only serves as a way to express good wishes. Moreover, what is hidden behind the picture is the students lack of confidence. They are letting someone else decide their own fate, rather than themselves, which no wise people will ever do. Hopefully, these students will stopping praying and get down to real work. It is wise for everyone to practice more and build up their confidence. Remember, you are the one who will control your fate. 2 北京奥运会期间，对私家车实行“每周限行一天”的政策，有效地改善了交通和环境。世 博在即，有人提议在上海也对私家车采取相同的政策，谈谈你对此的看法。 During the Beijing Olympics, the Beijing government made a policy that private cars couldnt be used one day a week, which was considered quite successful. In order to make the 2010 Shanghai Expo a great success, I think the Shanghai government may as well learn something from the example of Beijing. Cars have created a lot of serious problems. Besides traffic congestion and accidents, they are also responsible for a good part of air pollution in big cities. By restricting the use of private cars, the total number of cars in Shanghai will be reduced and therefore the problem of traffic congestion will be somewhat eased , especially during such a big event as the World Expo. With fewer private cars running in the streets and less carbon dioxide given off into the atmosphere, the environment in Shanghai will become better and better, which is sure to greatly impress the people from all over the world. However, the successful execution of the policy will be guaranteed by many factors. The government should work out effective laws and develop efficient public transportation system, and at the same time all the citizens should raise their environmental consciousness. Only in this way can the policy achieve its desired effect during the 2010 World Expo. 作文题目：设想你买了一本英语词典，发现有这样那样的质量问题，书店的态度又不好， 因此给报社编辑写信。信中必须包括以下内容： 1.事情的起因 2.与书店交涉的经过 3.呼吁服务行业(service industry)必须提高服务质量 Dear editor, I am writing to make a complaint about my unhappy experience of buying a dictionary last week. Several days ago, I bought an English-Chinese dictionary in a book store. To my disappointment, the quality of it was so poor that it wasnt worth the money at all! For instance, not only were there many mistakes in it but also the paper was rough. Then I returned to the store asking for my money back. But the store keeper paid no attention to my complaint and refused to deal with it. After a long argument, he didnt agree to pay off my loss and exchange the dictionary until I threatened to phone their manger. In my opinion, the quality and attitude of service are of great importance to the operation of a shop or even a company. A customers buying things in a shop means his trust to it. Therefore, as a successful businessman, he must live up to customers expectation and trust. If the comments or complaints are ignored, the bad reputation of the shop will lead to its being closed down. Every shop assistant should try their best to meet the needs of customers and face directly the shortcomings they have. Only in this way can they make more progress and more profits. Service industry plays an important role in our daily life. To some extent, the quality of it is an reflection of our level of life, As long as more importance is attached to the service industry, our society can be more comfortable and harmonious.

Nowadays, high school students are faced with increasingly serious stress of study, which attributes to many students poor performance in their studies and ill health. Even some students commit suicide as a way free from stress. Therefore, if stress is not correctly treated, it will lead us students to going astray. Since stress is a natural part of everyday life, there is no way to avoid it. The things we can do are to learn how to relieve ourselves in a proper way. As for me, listening to some light music is a good way to help me calm down, far from stress. Moderate exercise during the day also benefits me a lot, ensuring me a good nights sleep. And besides, talking with my parents during the dinner time gives me a release from the feeling of stress, which enables me to feel more secure and confident. Facing the life going hand in hand with stress, we first need a positive attitude no matter what way we may choose to relieve it. I hope all the students, including me, can deal with the stress from life and study well, turning frowns into smiles. 作文: 假设你是 Mary，你与几位同窗约定，高考后去外地旅游。但你的父母以“不安全” 为由阻止你。写一封信给学校的心理老师，告诉她事情的原委，表明你的观点，并向她寻 求解决问题的方法。 Dear Miss Li, Im Mary from senior three. Im writing to you to ask for your help with my problem facing me now. My classmates and I plan to make a trip to other cities after the College Entrance Examinations. To my disappointment, my parents are strongly against our plan. Much as I have tried, they still insist on their opinion that its not safe enough for us to do that. Honestly, the trip is a super chance for me to relax after a stressful year of senior three. The places of interest and attractive sceneries can surely slow down our breath and refresh us both physically and mentally. Contrary to my parents opinion, the trip for me is not a “dangerous trap” but a “helpful ladder”, helping me to grow mature. Far away from my parents, we are not only prone to be independent, but we are also provided with access to what life really is, which is sure to exert a lifelong influence on me. I really dont want to miss this chance to travel with my classmates. But I am at a loss what to do with my parents. Much obliged to you if you could give me some advice as soon as possible. Sincerely yours, Mary 4 根据以下图片（写信、电话、手机、e-mail） ，描述今昔通讯方式的变化，以及这些变化给 人们生活带来的影响。 (A) As is shown in the pictures above, the means of communication has experienced a revolution with the development of technology and has greatly facilitated our modern life.

As for the letter, I hope that it may give her power and courage when she is depressed. So I will write in the letter “There is no way to happiness, happiness is the way. Complete darkness may endure for a night, but it will never overcome the radiant light of the morning.” On the whole, the present bears my sincere wishes and it will become an everlasting symbol of our friendship. 7 作文： 你校的校报将新增一个英语版面（an English section） ，主编 Terry 向全校同学广泛征 求意见。请你以 Allen 的名义给他写一封邮件，谈谈你希望在该版看到的内容和你的理由。 写作提纲: 1.Beginning: 信件开始必要的寒暄- 很高兴得知校报新增版面. 2.Body: 提建议讲理由- 可以先提建议再分析理由; 也可以边建议边分析. 3.Ending: 期望和祝愿- 希望采纳我的建议; 祝报纸越办越好.
