Title: What Will Happen If China Enters WTO?B. Word Limit: about 200 wordsC. Your composition should be based on the Outline given in Chinese below: 1. 每个中国人都盼望中国加入世界贸易组织。 2. a. 加入世贸组织，国家和人民都将大大受益； b. 加入世贸组织，也会带来一些不利影响，如国有企业将面临更大的挑战。 3. 对中国加入世贸组织感到欣喜之余，我们也应看到随之而来的一些挑战。What Will Happen If China Enters WTO? Every Chinese is looking forward to Chinas entry into WTO, widely seen as a blessing and a promise of prosperity. It seems to be so at first sight, however, on reflection, were convinced that its just another coin with two sides.On the one hand, both the nation and people will benefit greatly from Chinas entry into WTO. Shut out of WTO, China used to be deprived of equal trade opportunities and was placed at a distinct disadvantage in world trade. This situation will change if China enters WTO. In addition, foreign companies will stream into China and offer great job opportunities, which, in a sense, will relieve the unemployment problem. On the other hand, the entry will impose some negative effects on China. State-owned enterprises in China are undergoing great difficulties, which will be more acute with the flow of foreign competitors into China. In short, excited about the advantages caused by the entry, we should not lose sight of the severe challenges posed by it. 范文（2） A. Title: Fast FoodB. Word Limit: about 200 wordsC. Your composition should be based on the Outline given in Chinese blew:1. 快餐在中国十分流行，它是现代快节奏社会的最佳反映。2. a. 快餐受欢迎有两条原因： b. 然而，从营养角度来讲，快餐却差强人意。 3. 对快餐还是以偶尔品尝为宜。 Fast FoodFast food is becoming more popular in China, especially among children and teenagers. Today, its certainly difficult to think of any other single thing that represents the fast pace of modern society as powerfully as fast food. There are several reasons for its popularity. First, it is very convenient and saves a lot of time. The trends of modern society seem to all point to one ultimate goal saving time, and fast food well serves this purpose. You just go into a fast food restaurant, order your food, and your food is ready in no time. You can either eat it there or take it away. Second, its popularity is also attributed to the clean and comfortable environment of fast food restaurants, the excellent service, and the guaranteed quality of food. However, in terms of nutrition, fast food is far from satisfactory. It usually does not compose a balanced diet and is low in nutritional value. Thus, doctors suggest that people, especially children, eat fast food as little as possible. Although cooking at home is time-consuming and the following washing-up tiresome, it offers healthy and delicious meals your body likes and needs. Fast food is only a good choice when you are in a hurry and turn to it once in a while. 范文（3）Directions:A. Cars play an important role in modern society. But they are also responsible for a good part of air pollution in big cities. Write an essay of about 200 words on car and air pollution on the following topic: Cars and Air PollutionB. Your essay must be written neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2.Outline:1. the serious problem of air pollution caused by cars;2. your suggestions on how to deal with the problem. Cars and Air PollutionToo many cars have created a lot of serious problems in our world. Besides congestion, accidents and fast fuel consumption, cars are responsible for a good part of air pollution in big cities. All the time, they are pumping huge amounts of waste gases into the atmosphere. These gases are very harmful, causing disease and even death. Last winter, car fumes formed heavy smog over Beijing, making the sky gloomy for weeks and deteriorating peoples health. One possible solution is to design and develop clean cars and clean fuels. In Tsinghua University, campus buses are driven by electricity. In Beijing some of the public buses begin to run on natural gas, which does not give off as much carbon dioxide as the petrol. But it may take decades for the new models of clean cars to completely replace the traditional ones.Another solution is to develop modern public transportation systems and restrict the use of private cars. If the price of petrol rises constantly and the public vehicles are efficient and convenient enough, most people will not private cars. And the total number of cars in big cities will reduce greatly. On the whole, the elimination of air pollution needs the co-efforts from the government, the public and the environments. This problem will be solved only with the help of science and technology. (227 words)范文（4）Directions: A. Write a letter to your local English-language newspaper giving your view on a discussion that has arisen as a result of an article they published entitled Why Do We Need English?B. Your letter must be written of about 200 words, excluding the addresses, etc. No.47, Haidian Road Haidian DistrictBeijing, China 100086 August 18,1999 The Editor Local English DailyWuhua Building Beijing, 100781 Dear Sir: I have been following with great interest the discussion inspired by Mr. Wang Lis article Why Do We Need English? published in the Local English Daily of 20th May, 1999. The one aspect of the English language that most of your correspondents seem to be unaware of is its widespread use as the international language of diplomacy, commerce and technology. It is the language of the United Nations and its agencies as well as of many other international bodies. We would be foolish to confine our vision to our national borders only. We are still, after all, dependent on other countries for technical and industrial assistance. How can we hope to be economically and technologically independent if we are not able to communicate in these areas outside our own country?English must be taught in all our schools, not only for the above reasons but also so that our students can go abroad to learn the techniques our nation so urgently needs. We also need representatives who can command respect at the international conference tables of the world. And if English is the common language of communications for world diplomacy, economics and defence, then let us be as fluent and proficient in it as possible, for the sake of our own countrys advancement and prestige. Yours sincerely, Li Xiaohua 范文（5）Direction:A. Title: A Matter of Approach B. Word Limit: about 200 words OUTLINE: 1. Two secondary school teachers I remember2. The differences between the two teachers in classroom attitudes 3. Their attitudes to their students4. Their methods of teaching A Matter of ApproachTwo secondary school teachers I remember show how different people can be though engaged in the same profession.Mrs. Wang, my philosophy teacher, sent us to sleep less than ten minutes when she started talking in class. When a head nodded, she would point at the dozing student and made threatening remarks. She said that she was bored teaching us. Some students in her eyes had no desire to learn. But the other teacher Mr. Li always had bright eyes in a smiling face and encouraging words which showed that he loved Chinese history he was teaching and wanted us to love it too. When it came to their attitudes to their students, they were different too. After Mrs. Wang finished her days lessons she felt that she had finished her job. Once when I asked her a question outside class about a term, she continued with preparation to leave and said that I could bring my question to class next week. Before I knew it she had put her keys into her handbag and walked out of the door. In the history class, however, a question even after the bell would still be given attention to by Mr. Li. He would rush to the board in a last minute attempt to clear up. Often he was seen with a number of students standing outside the classroom, discussing the days assignment.Their methods of teaching were not like as well. Mrs. Wang stuck to the textbook and trained us how to memorize minute facts. However Mr. Li brought in films, maps, slides, tapes, anything that would help us learn. Once the whole class went to see the film Lin Zexu in order to better understand the history of the Optium War from 1840 to 1842. Owing to these contrasts, I do not think I can forget either of my past teachers.
