One possible version: There is much discussion nowadays as to whether or not the relationship between family members is as close as before. Diverse contributing factors can be identified. In the following, I would like to present my point of view. Great changes have taken place in family life along with the development of society. One of them is that the once-extended family tends to be-come smaller and smaller. Many children have to leave their parents at an early age to study or work elsewhere. As time passes, children become emotionally estranged from their parents. Compared with the past, social competition is becoming increasingly fierce. People are urged to concentrate their efforts upon work, so that they can achieve success, or at least a good standard of living. As a result, they can t afford to spend their leisure hours with their families. The importance of bonds of kinship is gradually fading from their minds. In addition, the availability of various kinds of recreational facilities al-so diverts people from enjoying chats with the members of their families. Their free time is mostly occupied by watching TV, surfing the Internet or playing video games. They come to lose interest in communicating with the other members of their families. In view of such alienation within families, urgent steps must be taken, in my opinion. For members if families who live away from one another, regular contact on the phone can bring them the care that they need. Family reunions on holidays or other important occasions can make a difference as well. For those living together, it is a good idea to take some time off work or recreation periods to spend more time with each other. In the final analysis, a close family relationship can surely be maintained as long as we realize the significant role it plays in our lives and attach importance to it.One possible version: Career or Degree? Every Graduate s Decision After staying on campus for many years, some students become bored and can t wait to get a job. They are eager to lead a life that is less stressful intellectually and less pressing economically. In their eyes, a job can provide them with opportunities to solve problems that will demand a combination of both academic and practical knowledge. However, some students plan to continue their education in pursuing has her degree. As Far as academic preparation is concerned, the knowledge and skills acquired at an undergraduate level are far from adequate in the job market. It is a fact that an ever-increasing number of graduates are returning to school, motivated by the need to update their knowledge and enhance their skills. The news that graduates with higher degrees are better off is a directresult of the shrinking job market. All this indicates that a bachelor s degree can hardly qualify students for a competitive position. If I were able to choose for myself, I would prefer to stay and pursue an M.A. degree. I know my choice would mean a commitment of time and money. Opportunities, however, always take the form of hardships and risks. The days might be rigorous and painstaking, but they would certainly be fulfilling and rewarding, and would surely lead to a prosperous future.Some people claim that staying in a place all ones life is good for ones growth, while others disagree with the view, and they prefer changing the place. Write an article to express your point of view on this topic.One possible version: Do you prefer staying in a place all your fife? There is a widespread concern over whether it s a bad thing that people live in a place all their life. But it s well known that one man s meat is an-other man s poison. A majority of people think that staying in a place for a long time is a better choice. In their views there are two reasons contributing to this attitude as follows: in the first place, people who stay in one spot can develop a fife-time friendship, and such a friend will give a hand without hesitation if trouble comes. In the second place, when people move to different places, they usually are under pressure from strangeness. A person may feel lost and tense in a place where streets, stores and schools are all different. As a saying goes: Fear always springs from ignorance. People, however, differ in their opinions on this matter. Some people hold the idea that people shouldn t live in one place through their fives. In their point of view, on the one hand, people who spend a lifetime in one location can be locked into a limited way of life. A real problem is that life lacks passion. On the other hand, those who move frequently have a variety of outlooks. There is a chance to appreciate different ways 9f life. As far as I am concerned, I finally agree the view that people shouldn t stay in a place all their fives. It s not only because people can broaden their vision in different places, but also because fear will disappear with time. There is no doubt that nothing brave nothing hasWrite an article titled as “Knowledge Economy”. You should write it according to the following outline. Outline: (1) A new knowledge economy age is coming near. (2) What is “knowledge economy ” (3) The knowledge economy age presents both opportunities and challenges to us.One possible version: Knowledge economy was still something unheard of just a decade ago. But today it has become a household word and is on everybodys lips. Knowledge economy is not only a concept now, but will be a reality in near future. At the turn of the century, a new knowledge economy age is approaching us. In the 1980s, when people talked about the Third Wave and the post industrial society, knowledge economy remained a concept yet to be crystallized. However, in the 1990s, with knowledge playing an increasingly vitalrole in every sphere imaginable of our economic life, a knowledge-based economy is gradually taking shape. Simply shated, knowledge economy is a kind of economic system based on the production, storage, distribution and consumption of knowledge and information products. Knowledge economy is knowledge-intensive, energy-saving as well as environment-friendly. In the knowledge economy era, economic development relies heavily on science and technology. For example, the information industry in the US has already ac-counted for 10% of its gross domestic product and is expected to enjoy a further increase in the years to come. This imminent knowledge economy age presents both vast opportunities and immense challenges to every nation. Worldwide competition in knowledge and information, science and technology, inventions and patents, nature a land human resources will become even more fierce. As the saying goes, Knowledge is power, and so the gap between countries, in the final analysis, is the gap of knowledge. To meet these challenges posed by knowledge economy, our country should raise the overall quality of her labor force and cultivate more and more specialized personnel. Section IV Writing (计25分，权重25%) One possible version: People have different opinions on the effect of television on children. Some think that it is good for children to watch IV while others believe that television is bad for children. In my opinion, most of the effect TV has on children is bad. By the time children reach school, they have spent up to one-third of their waking hours in front of the television. Because they just sit back and let thing happen to them while watching TV, they become passive. As we all know, children are inventive and they have the ability to imagine a whole world of their own. But what happens when their imagination is not needed, when TV does all the imagination for them? Obviously, these kids are not going to grow up as inventive and imaginative as their parents, for they have been robbed of creative impulses by television watching. On one hand, TV watching also forces kids into becoming consumers and then tricks them. They are surrounded by ads for dangerous toys, mind-less games, and unhealthy foods. They force their parents to buy them, for the children themselves are not wise enough to detect the falsity of so much advertising. On the other hand, by watching too much TV, children are over ex-posed to violence. They watch programs like murders, fights and many other crimes for hours every week, with no adult around to tell them that life is not like that. The effect of the heavy dose of violence is to suggest kids that violence is an ordinary way of life ,and that slugging, shooting and cheating are ways to succeed. The total effect of TV on children is dangerous. It is time for parents to take charge and supervise their childrens play instead of parking them by the tube and hoping it will act as a baby-sitter. The influence of TV is so important that parents will have to be on their guard to make sure that their children are not being harmed by exposure to it. （ ）表示可有可无的话，字不够就加上。a/b/c表示方括号内由/分开的几句话选一句。（一） 对立观点式（1）给出两个对立的事物或者一个事物对立的两个方面，要求考生支持一方并进行说明。 具体表述如下：TOPIC： Some people like A； others like B. Which one do you prefer A or B？ Give specific reasons and examples to illustrate your answer.（2）给出两个对立事物或一个事物对立的两个方面，要求考生说明二者为什么不同或比较它们的优缺点，并给出理由。 具体表述如下：TOPIC： Some people believe that A while others consider B more appropriate. Give advantages and disadvantages of the two positions and explain which position you support.对立观点式的三种模板：1. 人们往往看到B的明显优点而忽视了它的缺点，同时A的内在优势没有被重视。第一段：To choose A or to choose B is something of a dilemma to the public because they sometimes are confused by the seemingly good qualities of B while neglect the genuinely good aspects of A.第二段：For B， people are often driven to believe that / It is quite easy for common people to CHOOSE B because of the obvious reason that _. （As a proverb says， Everything has two sides.） Although B does have its seemingly profound advantages， in the meantime there lie harmful characteristics/ intrinsic drawbacks in it such as _ / it can be achieved only conditionally because_ . Some people/experts maintain/warn that_. However， it is often overlooked by the public/most people. （Therefore we have no complete evidence to suggest that B is always better than A.）第三段： Unfortunately， the innate quality of A is often underestimated.或：What is more， if you notice the invisible benefits of CHOOSING A， you can understand A more deeply. Here I would explain a few of the most important reasons for choosing A. 第一点原因。第二点原因。第三点原因。（列举原因的句式见最后的通用句型）第四段：Therefore from what we have discussed， we may safely come to the conclusion that CHOOSING AAA is a rather wise decision.2. 选A还是选B的确是一个热门话题，我们来研究一下，A比B至少有三大优势：1，2，3.第一段：There is no denying the fact that _（whether it is better to choose A or B） is a popular topic which is much talked about not only by _， but also by _/by people across the world/ in a modern society.或：There is no denying the fact that _（whether it is better to choose A or B） is a popular topic which has caused heated debate over a long period of time （because it affects everybody in his or her daily lives）.或：In a modern society， people are always faced with the dilemma of whether to choose A or B. This problem is a much-debated one in that it affects everybody in his or her daily lives.或：（如果是针对某一事件的题目，不是什么popular topic）If _（it is announced that a new movie theater may be built _）， I will not be surprised to see _ （whether it is better to choose A or B） become a popular topic which is much talked about not only by _， but also by _. Although it seems that sometimes we can not tell which one outweigh the other between A and B / they normally coexist peacefully， they deserve some close examination. If three criteria were taken into account in comparing these two， I would prefer A. / As far as I am concerned， I vote for the latter. There are no less than three advantages in A as rendered below：第二段 第一点原因。第二点原因。第三点原因。第三段 In conclusion， （it must be explained that these three reasons sometimes intertwine to form an organic whole and thus become more persuasive than any one of them.） Only these three reasons are enough to make a person draw the conclusion that _ ， not to mention there are more.3. 选A还是选B的确是一个热门话题，我们来研究一下，二者各有优势，不过我来选的话，A的优点还是比B多。第一段前两句同2，第三句While both the two methods/choices may have their advantages and disadvantages， they can be applied under different circumstances. Later on， I will explain my opinion about it.第二段：A has the obvious advantage that / One very strong argument for A is that _. But there lies intrinsic harmful characteristic in this method. Some people/experts maintain/warn that_ Furthermore， _. Therefore we have no complete evidence to suggest that A is always better than B.第三段：On the other hand， choosing B also has advantages to some extent， For example， _. However， once again， it is important to see that under certain circumstances B will_（disadvantage）或：Yet there are some people who cast serious doubts on B或：Although B does have its seemingly profound advantages/ reason，in the meantimethere lie intrinsic harmful characteristics/drawbacks in it such as _ / it can be achieved only conditionally because_.第四段：（针对我个人的情况又可以说出一套理由）But if all these factors are contemplated， as far as I am concerned / according to my knowledge， the advantages of A carry more weight than those of B because A fits me/us students better in two ways： In the first place， _， In the second place/secondly，_Therefore from what we have discussed， we may safely come to the conclusion that choosing A is a rather wise decision.或：（我个人的情况说不出什么新的理由，只好说我觉得A优点就是比B多）It seems very difficult for us to prefer one to another because all of them have their advantages and disadvantages to the extent that it is hard to distinguish. Yet that does not mean that they are all the same to me. Which one I prefer depends on my own experience， life style and emotional concerns / educational background/_. As far as I am concerned / According to my personality and fondness/ To be frank， I would like to choose A， because there are too many benefits that outnumber its disadvantages not to choose it. B， on the other hand， has advantages no more than its disadvantages.（二）单一观点式两种形式：（1）给出一个论点，此论点不包括两种事物的比较，要求考生支持或反对并给出理由。具体表述如下：TOPIC： Do you agree or disagree with the following statement？ AAA. Use specific reasons and details to support your answer.（2）给出一个论点，主要是对两个事物进行比较的陈述，要求考生支持或反对并给出理由。具体表述如下：TOPIC： A is superior to B. Do you agree or disagree with this statement？ Use specific reasons to support your point of view.注：在模板中用A、B表示相比较的两个事物，这种形式与对立观点式有着很大的相似之处，考生可以进行适当的借鉴。（2）可以使用对立观点式的模板。（1）的两种模板如下：1. disagree这个问题的确是个热门话题，支持的人的理由是_，但是它的错误在于_.第一段：There is no denying the fact that _（if one should _ /if _ is right） is a hot topic which is much talked about not only by _， but also by _ /by people across the world/ in a modern society.或：There is no denying the fact that _（if one should _ /if _ is right） is a popular topic which has caused heated debate over a long period of time （because it affects everybody in his or her daily lives）.或：There is no denying the fact that _（if one should _ /if _ is right） is a basic （moral/philosophical） problem that can not be circumvented by anybody，（ because the opinion on this problem will determine ones attitude toward the world and the life）.或：（如果是针对某一事件的题目，不是什么popular topic）If _（it is announcedthat a new movie theater may be built _）， I will not be surprised to see _ （whether the plan should be supported or opposed） become a popular topic which is much talked about not only by _， but also by _. Before rendering my opinion， I think it is important to take a glance at the arguments on both sides.第二段：People who support AAA usually give （some， even all of） the following reasons. 第一点 原因。第二点原因。第三点原因。第三段：At the first glance， the opinion saying yes to the above question perhaps sounds reasonable and appealing. Nevertheless， many people do not think this view can hold water / we can find that it presents us with numerous negative effects along with its benefits.或：Although _（the opinion in question） does have its seemingly profound advantages/reasons， in the meantime there lie intrinsic harmful characteristics /drawbacks/faults in it/this method such as _ / it can be achieved only conditionally because_.Some people/experts maintain/warn that_. Unfortunately， it is often overlooked by the public/most people. （Therefore we have no complete evidence to conclude that the statement is right.） What is more， _第四段：In a word， despite the fact that the argument I disagree does hold a little bit of water， I think that_2.Agree或disagree都可以用。这个问题的确是个热门话题，乍一看不好说，不能仓促下结论，但是我同意/不同意它，至少有3条理由：1，2，3.（下面是按agree写的，容易改为disagree的模板）第一段第一句同1 ，第二句：At first glance it seems very difficult for us to draw a definite/quick conclusion that _ is right or wrong， because it has both advantages and disadvantages / since everything has two sides.
