第一篇：on the necessity of A World Language 英语专业八级
World Language is not a cultural bridge but a poison to a diversified society
Owing to the incessant technological evolution, today’s world seems more prone to be involved in inter-lingual communications than ever before.In reaction to the phenomenon, some one proposes to either invent a language or adopt an existing one as the world language in the hope of addressing cross-lingual problems.While many people are in favor of the proposal, I believe it utterly unnecessary to do so, not only because of the invaluable cultural loss it may cause but also of the infeasibility to carry it out.First thing first, it seems far from practical to adopt one single language in the whole world featured by diversity.As is acknowledged to all, currently, the extant languages on earth today can be approximately amounted to 6000, signifying that it will definitely be a thorny task decide which one should be chosen for almost all the people, as I’m convinced, might prefer their own mother tongue to be the one and therefore it‘s an impossible mission to apt for one that satisfies all and undoubtedly, once mishandled, fierce and everlasting disputes would be triggered.But what if people, instead of adopting an existing one, turn to inventing a new language? The answer would also be ‘Nope’.This proposal is destined to be a giant fiasco because of the fact that the demographic situation of the globe is very complicated and thus people speaking different languages, with different cultural identities and educational backgrounds, at different ages, are not blessed with the same capacity to acquire a new language.Even for those equipped with exceptional ability of learning, it may still be a laborious and painstaking work for them to master a newly fabricated language and to apply it freely in their daily life, not to mention those not that capable, especially for senior citizens and invalids.Obviously, rather than bridging language gaps, it may instead constitutes another confrontation against people with different mother tongues.Next, despite the conspicuous infeasibility, one can not but neglect the fact that to push a world language will result in nothing less than a great loss of linguistics and priceless cultures entailed by those languages, a loss that human being are not afford to pay off.By no means could one language fill the shoes of all the others in the role of carrying and exhibiting cultures
It must be first noted: apart from the superficial differences, each language, as a matter of fact, suggest a unique perspective to observe the world, which, in another word, means that language and diversity is the prerequisite for that of ideas and thoughts, the rooting reason for almost every great progress of human-being.Once the world is dominated by one single language, then it might cease to advance towards the future.Still, almost every language, through the long course of its development has created varied literary works in radiant splendor.One might be inspired by the philosophical doctrines of Confucius while indulged in the dramatic world filled with love and hatred in Shakespeare’s masterpieces, both of which are among the extraordinary legacies of human’s long accumulated inspirations and nonetheless, would be turned to nothing if people decide to replace with diversified world with a monotonous one.To sum up, human beings do not need a world language to restrict their potential, extirpate their culture and eliminate their history.What they need is a linguistically diversified world, where they could read their past as well as their future.
第二篇：英语专业八级作文
旅游高峰中国旅游景点是否该高收费
Nowadays, with the quick development of economy, we are embracing a tourism boom in China.More and more people want to spend their holidays in some famous tourism attractions and get themselves relaxed.Under this circumstance, whether the price of admission tickets in scenic spots should be charged high becomes a heated topic.In my opinion, the tickets price should be set at an affordable level for most of Chinese people and should not be too expensive, and the following are my reasons: First of all, all the natural and cultural tourism attractions are heritages which belong to the whole Chinese people, as a result, every citizen should have equal access to these spots.And affordable tickets price is a guarantee for this basic right.If the ticket price is too expensive, it actually means that the citizens who have lower income are deprived of their right to these places of interest.Secondly, tourism can make an important contribution to economic development, since tourism can create employment opportunities and boost the local economy.In this regard, affordable tickets price will help to attract more visitors and better finance the local economy as well as finance the protection of cultural and natural heritage.The last but not least, tourism helps to keep traditions alive and increase visitor appreciation of the natural and cultural heritage, which will give them a sense of national pride.Hence, affordable tickets price will provide this chance for most Chinese people instead of just the rich ones, and this is beneficial to the whole nation.All in all, affordable tickets price in scenic spots is beneficial to both the development of tourism and the development of local and national economy, and it is a wise decision to set the tickets price at an affordable level.

第四篇：2013 英语专业八级 作文
Is sound social environment good to the development of people
When it comes to the relationship of environment and people to be good to others, different men often see the same object in different lights.Some people
that our current society provides a “bad environment” for good
people doing good things, and it is surely that a sound social environment is necessary, while others do not think so.Helping others has always been a virtue in traditional Chinese culture, but nowadays many people dare not offer help to those in need, for fear of getting into trouble.The issue has aroused public debate over the climate of morality and credibility, and many people sigh over the moral degeneration.In my opinion, while social environment is necessary for people to be good to others, each individual should try his or her best to do good deeds and be sympathetic with others, instead of waiting for the environment to improve.There is no denying that some tragic events turn out to be traps by people with evil intentions, so people are becoming more risk-conscious and are more wary of traps and deceits.some people even wonder, „Is our society hostile to good people?‟ The question may sound ridiculous but many believe
people apparently think so.They believe that our current society provides a bad environment for good people doing good things, and good people pay a high price for being compassionate.In fact, such kind of things only accounts for a pretty small percentage, but massive media coverage makes the situation seem serious.Actually, most people around me are kind, warm-hearted and helpful, and I am quite delighted in their company.So I believe media should pay more attention to publicizing good people and exemplary deeds to enhance our confidence, rather than exposing disgusting behaviors.At the same time, as John Donne puts it, “No man is an island, entire of itself.Every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.” Since everyone of us is a component of the society, it is each individual‟s conducts that form social morality.Just imagine it is you who need help, what would you feel if everyone watches indifferently or suspiciously? So, put yourself in other‟s position and be sympathetic.If we do nothing but wait for the environment to improve, nothing will happen.Only by removing the fence around our kind consciousness can we reverse the regress of social ethics, and make our world full of warmth and happiness.Therefore, if help is needed, never hesitate to lend a helping hand.It will make you happy and feel better about life.In sum, I contend the idea that while social environment is necessary for people to be good to others, it is each individual‟s responsibility to offer help to those in need, and together we build up a more harmonious society.Is sound social environment good to the development of peopleWith the great influence of globalization and rapid development of technology, our work and life has become more and more convenient.In the past few years, our economy has maintaining a high rapid development and to our astonishment, our GDP ranked second all over the world last year.The whole country in general is enjoying a peace and prosperity.However, to some extent, standards of morality are now dropping fast.One of the famous cases recently is that a girl dropped into the manhole and lost because someone who has stolen the manhole covers, which is definitely a tragic for all of the people in our country.Such cases lead heated discussion of the moral consciousness.Is a sound social environment necessary for people to have moral standards and be good to others? As far as I am concerned, I am strongly in support of this view.For one thing, a sound environment is indeed essential for providing an energetic living condition, as we all know, environment plays a vital role in our self-development as every one is a member of the
society in which one is supposed to take part in various activities frequently and cannot escape the influence of it.To me, a sound environment means fair justice, sincere communication, orderly society and harmonious relationship between man and nature in which people can treat each other heart and soul.For another, under a favorable social environment, we are expected to share a stable job, harmonious family and wonderful working atmosphere, thus we have adequate time and energy to learn and enhance the quality of life.With the wide spread of civilization, one will have the awareness of improving their basic essence and trust and good quality will be greatly advocated among the whole society.In this way, there will be no fighting, no cheating and filled with kindness and love.All in all, a positive environment will enable the majority to be a moral citizen.Everyone is suggested to learn to self-management and cultivate a good sense of morality.Striving for an aim of being a noble person and make a contribution to build a stable and prosperous society.

生活就像一杯红酒，热爱生活的人会从其中品出无穷无尽的美妙。将它握在手中仔细观察，它的暗红色中有血的感觉，那正是生命的痕迹。抿一口留在口中回味，它的甘甜中有一丝苦涩，如人生一般复杂迷离。喝一口下肚，余香沁人心脾，让人在终身受益。红酒越陈越美味，生活越丰富越美好。当人生走向晚年，就如一瓶待开封的好酒，其色彩生活沉静的，味道中充满慷慨与智慧。
【译文】Life is like a glass of wine, never ceasing to offer wonders to those who truly love it.Holding the glass I the hand, you will observe the dark red tainted with blood, which justly symbols the trace of life.Taking a sip and recollecting its aftertaste in the mouth, you will taste the sweetness mixed with a bit of bitterness, a taste as complicated and elusive as life is.Once you swallow the sip, the lingering aroma will refresh the heart and mind, leaving the drinker life-long benefits.How remarkably wine resembles life: the longer the wine ages, the mellower it may taste;the more you experience, the more life may reward you.Life, at its twilight, becomes a good wine waiting to be savored, calm and profound in its color yet full of generosity and wisdom in its flavor.
