主题：On Space Project 给*周刊宇航专栏的编辑写一封信，说明你对太空探索项目的态度(支持或反对)，并简单陈述你的理由。Dear Editor，Thank you for your starting a specia1 co1umn jor the discussion on space projects. Frankly, it seems to me that our space projects so far have been in the main a waste of money, time, energy, human lives and resources.The richer countries are pouring large sums of money into space research programs which are of no benefit to human beings while in underdeveloped countries thousands of people are dying of hunger. Besides, many scientists time and energy are wasted, which could have been devoted to improving our living condition. Whats more, many astronauts have died complete1y uselessly in space vehicles which have been faulty. They were young people who hadnt enjoyed the fruit of life yet.Apart from human wastage, there is the wastage of resources which are finite and essential if man is to survive. I think its high time we stopped these meaningless programs.主题：环保观点对比题Economic Development and Environmental Protection1.有人认为经济发展先于环境保护;2.有人环境保护先于经济发展;3.我的看法。范文There are some individuals who argue that, compared to the environment protection, the top priority is supposed to given to economic development. They deem that environmental problems are inevitable and unavoidable in the process of economic development. They are only the by products of economic development, which can be handled later when we have the time and money.However, other individuals hold different opinions that(或者：other holders of the opposite opinions argue that ) environment protection should be attached more importance than economic development in that present serious environmental problems will threaten the health of the residents and hinder the advance of the economy.As far as I am concerned, environmental protection and economic development can coexist in parallel and can stay in harmony. Our ultimate aim in economic development is to provide a comfortable and happy life for our people. What is the point of economic development if we achieve it at the cost of our environment? There has been much evidence to prove that a balance between the two helps more rapid and continuous development of the society.主题：农民工Why Are There So Many Rural Laborers in Big Cities?1. 近年来越来越多的民工涌入大城市2. 产生这一社会现象的原因【范文】For a number of years, there has been a steady rise in the number of rural laborers who flood into big cities. Many men work on construction sites, while many women work as dishwashers in restaurants or babysitters for city dwellers. Three reasons, in my mind, can account for this social phenomenon.First and foremost, the limited land can no longer produce enough crops for an ever-increasing rural population. In the second place, there are far more opportunities in big citiesrural laborers dream of earning money through hard work. Last but by no means least, many of them want to live permanently in big cities, because they admire the way of living there, and wish their children to receive good education.I firmly believe that if we try our best to create a healthy social atmosphere, rural laborers will make greater contribution to our nation.【点评】本题谈论的是一种社会现象。第一段首句引入某一现象，第二句举例说明，第三句是个过渡句，引起下面解释原因段落的第二段;第三段是简洁的结束语，其中的宾语从句嵌套一个状语从句。范文首先指出大量农民工涌入大城市这一现象，并引出第二段所阐述的三个原因。首先，农村有限的土地不能满足日益增长的人口消费。其次，大城市有更多的工作机会。最后，农民工向往大城市的生活，想永远居住在大城市。末段总结指出，如果创造一个健康的社会环境，农民工就可以为国家做出更大的贡献。第一段第二句中的construction site表示“建筑工地”，babysitter表示“帮人看孩子的人”。第二段第一点中的rural指“农村的”;第三点中的permanently和admire分别指“永久地”和“羡慕”，receive education指“接受教育”。主题：低碳生活问题解决性作文1. 低碳生活受到人们的普遍欢迎2. 低碳生活方式非常有好处3. 我们应该如何去做范文Nowadays, there are a considerable number of individuals who prefer to lead a low-carbon lifestyle which find expression in the fact that more and more commuters are using public transportation system in their daily life.Low carbon lifestyle can endow us and our society with numerous benefits. Firstly, it goes beyond doubt that low carbon lifestyle contributes a lot to the environmental protection and it is a favorable way to slow down the rate of climate change of our earth, which also means a lot to our health.We are supposed to undertake the responsibility to lead a low-carbon lifestyle, which is of great significance. And there is a diversity of measures we can take so as to lead such an environmental-friendly life. For one thing, we are expected to minimize the use of private cars, which emit a large amount of greenhouse gases. For another, we are supposed to cultivate the public awareness of energy conservation for energy in the world today is decreasing rapidly. For instance, we can turn off electrical appliances if not necessary as well as using renewable materials. Furthermore, at our leisure, we can seek opportunities to plant more trees which can absorb carbon-dioxide.In brief, low-carbon lifestyle is nothing but the best choice for us and only in this way can we form a harmonious relationship with the environment.主题：食品污染Food ContaminationFrom time immemorial, food contamination has become a common phenomenon in China, ranging from poisonous milk power to the plasticizers in huge quantities of Taiwan-manufactured beverages and food exported to the mainland. The public has experienced so many crises of food contamination that only the most deadly cases would create some sensations, which soon pass into oblivion with the quick occurrence of new ones.Food contamination is indisputably detrimental. The poisonous milk power has bereaved many young couples of their innocent and lovely new babes. Some contaminated foods lead to irreversible and chronic diseases. Some affected individuals, though without visible aftermaths, may suffer from lingering psychological trauma. However, the hazards produced by food contamination are more moral than physiologicalwith contamination cases cropping up here and there, the credibility of the entire society has been ruined and people find nothing and nobody to be trustworthy.Technically, food contamination is caused by the introduction of illegal additives and non-edible chemical substances into the manufactured food. Morally, it results from the sheer drive for profitability by gluttonous merchants who use cheaper, and often harmful, substitutes, all at the expense of the physical welfare of the public. To address the problem, some appeal to the moral conscience of the businessmen. But the high frequency at which contamination cases have happened makes this moral appeal feeble and futile. The ultimate solution lies in lawthe profit-minded businessmen would not have a penitent heart unless they are driven to bankruptcy and taken into jail!【参考译文】食品污染已记不得从何时起，食品污染在中国已成为一种司空见惯的现象，稍前有毒奶粉事件，稍近则有台湾制造并输入至大陆的大量饮料与食品中的塑化剂。民众在经历了如此之多的食品污染危机之后，以至于只有最为致命的个案才会激起一些涟漪，但随着新危机的快速涌现，此前的危机很快就被人淡忘。无可辩驳的是，食品污染危害极大。毒奶粉已夺走了许多年轻夫妇们的无辜、可爱的新生儿。有些遭到污染的食物，可以导致不可逆转的慢性疾病。有些受有毒食品影响的个体，虽然并无显著的后遗症，也会遭受久久挥之不去的心理创伤的折磨。但是，食物污染所造成的危害与其说是生理层面上的，还不如说是道德层面上的。随着污染个案此起彼伏，层出不穷，整个社会的诚信已被摧毁殆尽。人们发现，任何人，任何事，都不值得信赖。从技术上讲，食物污染是由于非法添加剂或非食用性化学物被引入到所制造的食物中。但在道德层面，它则源自利欲熏心的商人对利润的不择手段的追逐。他们采用成本更为低廉、且往往是有害的替代品，罔顾民众的身体健康。为了解决这一问题，有些人诉诸于商家的道德良知。但是，食品污染事件如此高频率的重复发生，已使这一道德诉求苍白无力，徒劳无效。终极的解决之道只有一个，那就是法律。满脑子想着如何赚钱的不良商家是绝不会心存忏悔的，除非将他们逼至破产的境地，或令其锒铛入狱！【值得熟记的句式与短语】1.

Employment becomes a major social issue in our country. More and more people pay great attention to it.This issue result from two aspects. First many undergraduates are finding jobs. They hope to get a job with high salary and other pensions. So the government and the society face great pressure. More job opportunities are needed to create for them.On the other hand, there are many vacancies of jobs in the west. So there comes an imbalance between the supply and demand in the east and the west. Few people want to seek jobs in the west. They prefer to live in the major cities, such as Beijing , shanghai and other developped areas.To solve this issue, it is a better choice to encourage people to seek jobs in the west. This also help to develop local economy and offer a brandew chance for graduates.主题：大学讲座Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic My Opinion on Campus Lectures. You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:1. 大学校园里的讲座丰富多彩2. 听讲座的益处3. 你对在大学校园里听讲座的评论【范文】My Opinion on Campus LecturesIn recent years, more and more lectures are being given on campus. They are organized either by the departments or by the students unions with an aim to improve the students quality both mentally and academically. These lectures are usually in series and on different topics, such as arts, life, economy, psychology and world issues.Generally speaking, the advantages of good lectures are various. First they broaden the students knowledge horizon and cultivate interest in different fields. Second, they make the life of the students colorful and enjoyable.With these merits, lectures are just complementary and subordinate to our school work. If students spend too much time attending lectures, their regular study will be affected and disturbed. So, in my opinion, the students should, on the one hand, do their class work and homework well first, on the other hand, set as more time as possible to attend good lectures which are helpful to our life and study.主题：食品安全Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a letter to a publishing house on food safety.
