新东方学校四级作文教师 李艳华
Among various recipes one enjoys in his or her college life, recreational activities can by no means be ignored.It is numerous activities, such as spoken English competitions, sports events, and clubs and societies of different interests, that help to make campus life colorful and diversified.Facing so many interesting extracurricular activities, we college students have trouble to choose the proper ones.As freshmen, we are confused by all kinds of posters for students’ clubs to recruit new members.There are two opposite views about recreational activities.One says they exert positive influence on a student’s physical and mental development, for they can explore a student’s talent, develop a student's ability in communication, and teach them to be more independent.While, opposite voices can also be heard by asserting that recreational activities waste too much time, and therefore may hinder student from focusing on his or her study.As for me, I hold a belief that recreational activities do more good than harm, because I have always been of the impression that as a college student, he or she, besides the academic information, should pick up more practical skills to be better prepared for the career development.Recreational activities do give us a good chance.And, so long as one can arrange the time by reason, activities besides study will definitely provide more benefit for us.Recreational activity
In people’s daily life, there are various recreational activities apart from studying or working ranging from Karaoke or dancing to computer games or sports games.Such activities are beneficial as well as harmful to us if undertaken inappropriately.On one hand, recreational activities can help us to not only build our body and mind but also improve our communication and understanding with friends because most of these activities are done with others.On the other hand, if we spend too much time on singing, dancing or other games, we might fail to concentrate on our duties such as studying our working, which in turn may lead to further consequences.As far as I’m concerned, recreational activities should be done within a certain limit so that we can keep a proper balance between recreation and studying or working life.In the era of information and technology, there are all kinds of recreational activities.Some people think those recreational activities are great and necessary, because they can help people relax from the hard work and study.Some of the activities, such as hiking, jogging, can help people relax physically;while some of them, such as surfing the Internet, can help people relax mentally.However, some people think that so many kinds of recreational activities may have a bad effect on our lives.Some people may not resist some temptations from those activities, and indulge themselves in those activities.At last they are lured away from their study or their work.In my opinion, we should pay more attention to the advantages of various recreational activities and make the most of them.Meanwhile, we should learn how to use those activities positively, and make them a helpful tool for our development.分析:此次写作题目与昨天我们预测的写作题目之一The Internet重合度非常高,都属于正反论证类,需要考生论述正反两方的观点,并最终表明自己的观点。写作中可用的句型和表达也与The Internet的范文达到高达70%的重合度。具体参加下面的预测范文。
Directions: For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write a composition on the topic The Internet.You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in hinese:
1.有人认为网络可以让学习、工作更有效率
2.还有人认为网络让青少年沉迷,进而影响学习
3.你对于网络的看法
The Internet
In the era of information and technology, the Internet has played an improtant role in our society.With the Internet, it's easy to get the information we need, improving the efficiency of our study and work.We can't deny that it is impossible for lots of people to achieve great success in the modern society without the Internet.However, some people think that the Internet has a bad effect on the growth of the teenagers.The teenagers are too young to resist some temptations from the Internet.Some of them indulge themselves in the Internet and at last are lured away from the study.In my opinion, we should pay more attention to the advantages of the Internet and make the most of it.Meanwhile, we should teach the teenagers how to use the Internet positively, and make the Internet a tool for their healthy development.21st century has brought with it an unprecedented variety of recreational activities ranging from traditional outdoor activities such as playing ball games to all kinds of online ones, the latter of which is a great appeal to the young generation.So I’d like to narrow my topic down to online recreational activities.It goes without saying that various activities brought by modern technology have greatly broadened our horizon and brought much excitement to us.With access to the Internet, you can get to know people from any country in the world and you can talk with them, play games with them---a temptation very hard to resist, and even see them via web cam.The disadvantage, however, is that anyone who lacks self-control would very easily get lost and become addicted to the online world, which in turn might seriously affect their life, work and interpersonal relationships.As a college student, I think what really matters is to make better choice and exert more discipline.We’d better take advantage of good online recreational activities to enrich our lives and broaden the scope of knowledge.When it comes to those addictive, time-consuming and less meaningful activities, I think to stay away from them is a wise decision.Recreational Activities
With the development of living standard, people spend more time on various forms of recreational activities.People can do sports, singing karaoke, go dancing, go to the movies, play video games or online games, or surf the Internet.Recreational activities are good to people’s health, both physically and mentally.Sports and dancing can keep people fit.Singing karaoke, playing video games or online games can satisfy people’s imagination.Surfing the Internet can bring people a lot of information and knowledge.However, recreational activities might be harmful if people are addicted.Spending too much time on recreational activities will seriously influence people’s normal lives, especially work and study.Therefore, people will benefit from recreational activities only if they take part in them properly.此次作文难度适中,沿袭了往年的常考题型—argumentation型,讨论某一主题的利弊。本
次题目recreational activities涵盖面宽,因此考生需要注意把话题缩小到某一个范围,对于大学生而言,对于网络上的娱乐活动可能更有话可说,所以可以把这个很泛的话题限制在网络娱乐活动。而对于网上活动的利弊想必同学们都可以说出一二,好处比如能够开阔眼界、增长知识,弊端就是很容易上瘾,影响学习生活;而个人的看法就是用其精华弃其糟粕,即利用其好处,对不好的地方避而远之。这是个比较容易套用模板的题目,如果同学们在考前熟悉了这种体裁的写作,拿到相对理想的分数应该不是难事。
附上该体裁写作的模板,供同学们参考。

例:Buying or Borrowing Books?(1)有些人认为书应该借来看(2)有些人认为书应该买来看(3)你的选择?
Buying or Borrowing Books?
Books can arm us with knowledge and information we need to make success of life.There are generally two ways in which we can have access to books: borrowing or buying.While millions are borrowing books, I still think buying them best suits me and gives me the greatest pleasure.Many people choose to borrow books.For one thing, borrowing books can save us huge amounts of money.For another, if we borrow books from the library or friends, we normally have deadline to finish them.And consequently we can read more books in a limited time, just as a famous Chinese saying goes, “books can not be read unless borrowed.”
I believe that advantages for buying books are more obvious and compelling.Firstly, we can keep the books as long as we wish.Secondly, we can take whatever notes on the margin of the pages of the books.Finally, the process of selecting and keeping books can be a great fun.4.口语作文 例:工作总结演讲
1.简述上周五系学生会搞的一次以环保为主题的到某一湖区拾trash的活动。2.上述活动的效果及存在的问题。3.你的建议。My fellow students, Last Friday, the Students‟ Union of our Department organized a clean-up project to Zhongshan Lake.The purpose of this project is to enhance(加强)the environment awareness of general public.Late in the afternoon around 4, a group of 35 volunteers went to the park where we pick up the trash(垃圾)left by some tourists.As head of the group, I would like to report to you on the event.Actually, we did a wonderful job.When we were collecting the trash near the lake, many people paused to watch and then came to our help, showing considerable appreciation and support.But our work still left some to be desired.For one thing, since our project started late in the afternoon, hours were not long enough to attract enough people as we had predicted.For the other, lots of people passed by apparently not knowing what we were doing.But for these two drawbacks, our project could have been much better and more effective.So, following are two of my suggestions: next time we have similar activities, try to start earlier, say in the morning.In this case we can put in more hours.And also, as we are getting along, we can put up some posters to tell people what we are doing and call their attention to environment protection.Thank you.5.图表作文
A: staying at home B: traveling C: doing social investigation D: other ways
From the two charts, we can see that in the past ten years the students who go traveling and do social investigations during vacations have increased greatly while those who stay at home have decreased a lot.There are several reasons for the changes.Firstly, with the development of economy, many people have become better off.Students can get financial support from their parents for traveling.Secondly, tourism has greatly developed over the past ten years.Many new scenic spots have been built and exploited.In addition, the students today are expected and encouraged to participate in facing the real world.In this way they can obtain the necessary experiences required when they go job-hunting upon graduation.From the changes in the charts, we can predict that more and more college students will make their vacations interesting and worthwhile by going to the outside world instead of staying at home.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic of Studying Abroad.You should write at least
words following the outline given bellow:
1.近几年来越来越多的学生选择留学
2.出现这种现象的原因
3.这种现象可能带来的影响
四级模考参考范文:
Recent years have witnessed a phenomenon that more and more students swarm into foreign countries to finish their education.They have not considered our homeland as the unique place to enrich their knowledge any more.Instead, some excellent boys and girls whose financial condition is fine simultaneously began to pay their attention on some oversea prestigious colleges and institutions and dream to get degrees there.There are several reasons to cause this change.First of all, with the globalization and much more frequent communications with developed countries, most of the people in China get to realize the wide gaps in many fields, especially in science and technology,between China and western countries.They thirst for studying aboard to get ready better for the fierce competition in the job-hunting market.Moreover, the life in foreign countries is usually attractive to young people and studying aboard may satisfy their curiosity.Besides, the rapid development of our mother country and the remarkable growth in our income make going abroad to study available, which is almost impossible to average Chinese students in the past.The move-out of our students changes our society a lot.On one hand, being students in foreign universities will widen their view and offer them more possibility to get favorite jobs.And consequently their success will draw more latecomers to do the same thing.On the other hand, if the majority of them will not go back to China to work in the future, our fatherland will probably suffer a significant loss which may be difficult to be estimated by money.毕业的问题
1、Studying Abroad or Home
(1)现在有越来越多的人想出国留学。
(2)出国留学与在国内学习的对比。
(3)你的观点。
Nowadays, with the development of science and technology, more?and?more?people want to study abroad.There are students from colleges and universities, from the middle schools, from the primary schools, and people from all walks of life.What difference does it make?between studying abroad and studying home ?
Though many students are crazy about going abroad to pursue their higher education, I think studying home is preferable.For one thing, you don‟t have to take foreign language tests such as TOEFL and GRE.This can save you a tremendous amount of time, money and effort, allowing much of your energy to be devoted to your academic foals.In addition, if you study home ,you can stay with your family and old friends.Meanwhile , while studying home ,you can enjoy the kind of intimate friendship and comfortable family atmosphere which you can only dream of in a foreign university , where you will be accompanied by your own shadow most of the time.For these reasons, pursuing one‟s higher education at home is a more realistic and sensible choice.In a word, I prefer to study home.The Intensified Postgraduate Entrance Examination
It can be seen from the graph that there are more and more students attending the postgraduate entrance examination year by year.Compared with before, the rate of the student taking part in the postgraduate entrance examination becomes higher and higher.In the meanwhile, the admittance rate is also rising.What are the reasons for this and the possible consequences? On the one hand, there are three reasons for this.First, the job market becomes more and more competitive.As a result, most people want to find or exchange for a better job by obtaining a high degree.Second, most college students want to pursue their study after their graduation from the undergraduate.Third, with the development the science and technology, what has been learned at college is not enough to meet the need of the society.On the other hand, there are some possible consequences of this.For one thing, most people will be force to pay more attention to the examination than to the improvement of their true ability.For another, it will have a negative effect not only on the individual but also on the society in the long run.Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a Letter of Apology.You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese:
1.表达自己对晚交论文一事的歉意。
2.说明未能按时交论文的原因。

1There has been a heated discussion over the growing income gap now.Some people hold that the gap is natural because it 2reflects different contributions that different people make in their work.3In their view, those people with high income work hard and long.Besides, these people bring high 4efficiency, and create more wealth.Accordingly, they deserve high pay.1On the other hand, there are always some people who view this gap negatively.They believe that a lot of crimes happen as a result of this income gap.Some people make so little from their work that they 2risk taking criminal acts to get rich.In fact, experts have long found out that most cases of crime are directly related to low income.There is 3another point to 4back up a negative view against income gap.For most people, income gap may destroy the satisfaction
that they obtain from work.1As anything has two sides, so has the problem of income gap.Personally, I believe that this gap may 2motivate people to compete better in job market.When this gap is growing too wide, however, our government should make some policies to 3get rid of its negative consequences.◇第一段思路点评:收入差距的合理性

How Should Parents Help Children to Be Independent
①It is beyond reproach that children are always considered the apple of parents” eyes ,which is especially true in single-child families.②However ,many parents goso far as to take over everything for their life and study even to their future.③It is not unusual to witness that an increasing number of children are accompanied by parent on their first day in college.④I declare in no uncertain terms that it will end up with the children” s lack of independence.In such a world full of fierce competition ,being independent becomes essential for a would-be success.Thus ,⑤what should parents do ?
In my humble opinion, ⑥on the one hand ,parents should raise children in a free-ranging way instead of being “helicopter” parents, who always seem to hover over their children;⑦ on the other hand ,parents should teach children to be responsible for their own behaviors instead of monopolizing everything.⑧I cling to the belief that only when parents realize what is better for their children and care them in a right way ,can they help children develop independence.精彩点评:①引入话题:孩子是父母的掌上明珠。②自然过渡:但是,有些父母却为孩子包办一切。③引用生活中的实例,证实父母为孩子包办并非空穴来风。④分析包办所带来的后果。⑤提出问题:父母应该如何做?⑥和⑦具体阐述解决问题的策略,层次分明。⑧简要总结前文所提的具体侧咧,是文章结尾不显突兀。

A green environment ,rather than anything else, plays a decisive role in the growth of college students.Meanwhile ,③it should also be mentioned that a preen campus includes not only the places where the students live, but also the mental environment.Without green surrounding ,the soul of students would be not as pure as we wish.In that case ,④in no place other than campus should we attempt to make a green atmosphere.Due to the seriousness of the situation, it is crucial for us to take effective measures to create a green campus.⑤In the first place, it” s essential that law and regulations should be worked out and enforced by the government and authorities.⑥Furthermore, it is high time that we enhanced the awareness of the students themselves.⑦ Only in this way can we get satisfactory results.With these measures taken ,it is reasonable for us to believe that a green campus will be achieved in the near future.精彩点评:①开门见山,提出绿色校园的话题已经引起社会关注。②点名绿色校园的重要意义。③用not only..but also 句型介绍绿色校园的内涵和外延。④半倒装句的运用恰到好处,引出下文要阐述的内容,即社会各界应行动起来,推动绿色校园的建设。⑤和⑥结构连接词in the first place 和furthermore 的运用,使得论述清晰明了。⑦结尾常用的倒装句,总结前文。

3. 你的看法
Living alone or Living with Roommates
Nowadays, there has appeared a heated discussion among the college students as to whether they should live alone outside the campus or live together with other roommates in the students’ dormitory.Opinions are divided over the matter.Those who are in favor of Living alone maintain that it is very convenient to live by themselves.They can enjoy absolute freedom in a room of their own.They can have their own timetable without disturbing others.They are also free to equip the room with a personal computer so that they can have easy access to the Internet.But others argue that living with roommates has attractions of its own.With several students sharing the same room, each person’s experiences can be greatly enriched.They can learn a lot
from talking to one another.By learning to tolerate the differences between individuals, they can become more mature.As far as I’m concerned, I prefer to live with roommates because I love the feeling of belonging.Besides, it is a lot cheaper to live in a dorm than to rent a apartment outside the campus.
第五篇:大学英语四级考试
大学英语四级考试流程
8:50---9:00试音时间
9:00---9:10播放考场指令,发放作文考卷
9:10取下耳机,开始作文考试
9:35发放含有快速阅读的试题册(但9:40才允许开始做)
9:40---9:55做快速阅读
9:55---10:00收答题卡一(即作文和快速阅读)
9:55---10:00重新戴上耳机,试音寻台,准备听力考试
10:00开始听力考试,电台开始放音
听力结束后完成剩余考项。
11:20全部考试结束。
注释:
1,标准分满分710分=听力248.5+阅读248.5+综合测试106.5+写作106.5。
2,从听力、阅读部分的换算表可以看出,错前两分的时候,标准分扣分严重,1分扣10.5分,错到第3分的时候,标准分扣分有所降低-7分,扣到10分以后,标准分扣分就更低(3分),可见,标准分换算目的是把同学的成绩档次拉开,让特别优秀的同学脱颖而出,要想总分取得630分以上,必须保证很高的正确率,卷面扣的前几分在标准分的权重相当大。这也就解释了为什么考630分以上的同学这么少!据换算,要考630分,阅读和听力部分卷面每部分扣分在3分左右。
3,综合测试的分数权重不大,卷面错1分在标准分中扣的分也相对较少,而且完型填空题量大,得分率不高,在考场上建议大家不要把完型填空耗费掉太多的时间,得不偿失!
4.当你拿到成绩单,上面写着290,那么恭喜你,你的卷面成绩为0分。如果425+,就算顺利通过
