From 1992 to 2002, the proportion of graduates going to graduate school and joint-venture remained unchanged at 25%. The proportion of graduates who intended to join state-owned firms increased markedly from 50% to 20%. However, the percentage of graduates with intention of entering private firm increased dramatically from 20% to 50%.We learn from the pie charts that more graduates tend to choose private firms while less of them would like to work for state-owned firms after graduation. What might account for this phenomenon? Possible reasons can be listed as follows: for one thing, quite a few graduates come to know that, compared with state-owned firms, private firms can provide them with higher salaries. Moreover, private firms are famous for scientific management and fair competition, they seem to enjoy more experience and opportunities. Last but not least, some graduates hold that private firms surpass state-owned firms in working conditions, career promotion and personal relationships.Graduates do have rights to choose their ideal firms. However, they should also bear in mind that what kind of firms will not determine how successful they will be. It is their abilities, attitudes and diligence that determine how long they can go. (211 words)参考译文：这两幅饼状图反应了大学毕业生就业的变化。从1992年到2000年，毕业后读研和加入合资企业的毕业生的比例维持在25%不变。毕业后想加入国有企业的学生的比例快速地从50%下降到20%。然而，毕业后想去外企的学生的比例从20%迅速增加到了50%。我们从饼状图中得知，越来越多的毕业生在毕业后选择私企而越来越少的学生愿意到国有企业工作。如何解释这个现象?可能的理由可以罗列如下：首先，相当多的毕业生逐渐知道，与国营企业相比，私企能够为他们提供更丰厚的薪水。其次，私营企业以科学的管理和公平的竞争而闻名，他们似乎可以在私营企业里获得更多的锻炼和机会。最后，有些人认为，在工作环境、职场晋升和人际关系方面，私企也胜过国企。毕业生确实有选择自己理想的公司的权利。然而，他们也应该牢记在心，什么样类型的公司不能决定他们会如何成功。倒是他们的能力、态度和勤奋会决定他们能够走多远。预测七为什么越来越多的人开始读电子书 The bar chart given above reflects that the number of readers choosing paper book or electronic books experienced some changes during the past four years. The number of paper book readers decreased slowly from 10 million in 2010 to 8 million in 2013. However, during the same period, the number of electronic book readers increased steadily from 8 million to 12 million.We learn from the bar chart that people in mounting numbers would like to choose electronic books while less people like paper books. What might account for this phenomenon? Reasons can be listed as follows: for one thing, with the widespread availability of electronic devices such as smartphones，tablet PC and Electronic Reader，it is much easier for electronic books to be applied and popularized. Secondly, compared with paper books, electronic books are characterized by convenience in terms of carrying and saving spaces. Furthermore, the costs of purchasing and downloading electronic books are lower that of paper books, which enables readers to save a great deal of money. Last but not least, electronic books sometimes stand for high fashion and efficiency.Whether electronic books will totally replace paper books one day still seems to be uncertain. However, no matter what kind of books will vanish, the habit of reading books should not be eliminated. (218 words)参考译文：这幅所给的柱状图反应了纸质图书和电子版图书的阅读者的数量在过去的四年发生了一些变化。纸质书籍的读者的数量从2010年的1000万缓慢下降到2013年的800万。而相反的是，电子书读者的数量从800万稳定增加到1200万。我们从这幅柱状图中得知，越来越多的人愿意选择电子书而越来越少得人喜欢纸质书。有什么可以解释这个现象?理由可以罗列如下：首先，随着诸如智能手机、平板电脑、电子阅读身背这样的电子产品的广泛普及，电子书的使用和传播变得相对容易。其次，相比纸质书而言，电子书的携带更加方便，也更加节省空间。再者，购买或下载电子书的成本比购买书籍要低得多，这可以为读者省下一大笔钱。最后，电子书似乎也是一种时尚和高效的象征。是否电子书会在某天彻底取代纸质书不得而知。然而，不管哪种书会消失，阅读的习惯是不能消失的。预测八Due Attention Should Be Given to Speaking1. 如今不少学生在英语学习中不重视口语2. 出现这种现象的原因是3. 为改变这种状况，我认为【范文】Due Attention Should Be Given to SpeakingNowadays fewer and fewer students pay attention to their spoken English, which results in a dramatic increase in the number of students who can spell English words but are incapable of speaking them fluently or correctly. This phenomenon has aroused many peoples attention.Why does such a phenomenon emerge? As far as Im concerned, there are possibly two reasons contributing to this phenomenon. On the one hand, exam-oriented education makes many schools lay emphasis on passing the English exams, which leads to the lack of speaking environment for students to practice their spoken English. On the other hand, students themselves dont realize the importance of the ability to speak English which has a great influence on their futurestudy and career development.To change this situation, I think, we can take the following measures. First, the importance of oral English should be emphasized to raise students awareness of the necessity of speaking English. Second, exams should be modified to make students pay attention to their spoken English. Third, schools can organize various activities to arouse students interest in speaking English.预测九Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Post-holiday Syndrome Among Students. You should write at least 150 words following the outline given below.1. 很多学生在开学伊始都会出现假期综合症2. 出现这一现象的原因3. 我的建议范文：Post-holiday Syndrome Among StudentsWith the gloomy prospect of returning to school, many students could suffer from post-holiday syndrome, which refers to a general feeling of depression before returning to campus life, which is caused by irregular lifestyles during the holiday. Symptoms include fatigue, lack of appetite and concentration, irritability and a feeling of helplessness.Various reasons can account for it. But most important of all, a large number of students tend to overindulge themselves in eating, merrymaking and playing around during the holidays, which makes it difficult to adjust to their routine study schedule and life pace on the campus.My suggestions to
