1）近年来“博客”越来越流行，许多人利用“博客”来表达心声、交流想法

2）博客流行的原因

3）目前的博客中可能存在的问题

The Popularity of Blog 考{试大In recent years，blog has become very popular.More and more people have created their own blogs and often visit others’ blogs.They use blog to reveal their inner voice，or collect and share thoughts and things they

find interesting.In brief，blog is an online dairy or a frequently updated personal page.转载自考试大ExmdaCom

Why does blog become so popular in such a short time？ Firstly，it is the widespread of Internet that provides a platform for the appearance and popularity of blog.Secondly，anyone can create his own blog as he wishes.Blog has no fixed rules and needn’t’t professional knowledge and skills，which enables millions of people to have a voice and connect with others.Thirdly，blog covers all kinds of topics from daily life to political forums，from individual thoughts to world events.Among millions of blogs，you can always find something you

are interested in.However，blog has some problems.For one thing，plagiarism（剽窃）in blog is not unusual.The protection of blog copyright cannot be guaranteed.For another，many blog contents are in a mess，and some even include

unhealthy things.Therefore，blog still has a long way to go before it becomes mature.1)近几年大学校园内出现“考证热”

Certificate Craze On Campus

In recent years, getting a certificate has become a new craze among college students.Just randomly ask a student on campus what he or she is busy doing;quite possibly, you may get the answer that he or she is preparing

for a certificate of some kind.Why does this craze appear?

There are mainly two reasons behind this phenomenon.First, it is the employment pressure that forces college students to get more certificates.With the admission expansion of colleges, a lot more graduates have to face the fierce competition in the job market.How can one make himself more competitive? More certificates at hand, maybe.Second, diploma and certificates are still important standards by which many employers measure a person’s ability.In order to increase the qualifications for a job, the students compel themselves to run from one

exam to another.From my point of view, we should be more rational when it comes to certificates, since certificates do not necessarily prove one’s ability.Being crazy in getting certifications blindly is nothing but wasting time.To conclude, we should focus on improving our ability but not getting a certificate of no practical value.四六级冲刺备考

Private Tutoring 考试大论坛

1.为孩子聘请家教目前非常普遍

2.家教的利与弊

3.我的看法

Private tutoring is “in”.A recent investigation shows that about 80 percent of pupils have private tutors，Such a popular practice indicates that people are attaching greater importance to education.Many parents, for various reasons，missed the chance of obtaining a good education.When their children meet with difficulties in study, they are helpless, private tutoring is the only solution.As private tutoring is usually one-to-one, the teacher

knows the strong points as we11 as the weak points of the pupil, clearly。

However, private tutoring has its own disadvantages;for one thing, it takes up so much of the pupils’ time that they can hardly find enough time for rest and entertainment, which are essential for their physical and mental health.For another, some teachers, busy“shuttling” from one family to another, tend to neglect their regular teaching duties.What’s more，some teachers are eager to help pupils do well in the test, offering the so-ca11ed

tips for test

Generally speaking, its disadvantages outweigh its advantages.Greater emphasis should be laid on classroom teaching and practice, on the improvement of teaching quality and on the tapping of the pupils’ potentials.Only in

this way can we generation be healthily brought up。

Styles of Living

1．有些人愿意和父母居住在一起

2．有些人想自己独立居住

3．我的看法请访问考试大网站hpwwexwmdamo

Some people enjoy living together with their parents after they have grown up.They hold the opinion because , living with parents , they can take better care of their parents and vice versa.Meanwhile, they can turn to their parents for help if they get into trouble or have some difficulties.To them, life in a big family seems to be

more enjoyable than that in a small family.Others, however, prefer to live separately.They cherish the idea to be independent of their parents, seek more freedom and wish to have a place of their own, in which they can do what they like.Bedsides, they don’t want to

be overprotected by their parents but long for chance to face the society by themselves.As to me, I like an independent life style in spite of the fact I love my parents.Different generations have different life styles and values.What one generation likes may not be another generation’s fondness.Living separately, each generation can enjoy different value.In addition, by leading an independent life , I can train my

character and develop my own ability to deal with things encountered in my life.

第二篇：六级翻译技巧以及话题

英语六级翻译对很多同学来说都是一个大难点，其实六级翻译也是有技巧的。下面来看小编为大家整理的2014年12月英语六级翻译技巧之词的翻译，希望对大家有所帮助。

(一)词的翻译

1.词义选择

所谓词义选择，是指词本来就有这个意思，问题是要我们将其在特定场合的正确意思选出来。正确选词是保证译文质量的重要环节，如果能做到在词语意义和字面形式上都对等当然最好，如果不能兼顾，则取意义，舍形式。越是普通的词，越是拥有繁多的释义和搭配，翻译过程中的词义也就越难以确定。选词时，要注意词义的广狭、所处的语境、词义的褒贬和感情色彩。

例1

原文：但通常每个家庭都会在除夕夜团聚，一起吃年夜饭。

译文：However, New Year's Eve is usually an occasion for Chinese families to gatherfor the annual reunion dinner.分析：“年夜饭”此处实际就是每年一度的团圆饭，为了让译文更符合英语国家的习惯，这里用的是annual reunion dinner，理解起来更容易。

例2

原文：人们还会在门上粘贴红色的对联(couplets)„„译文：And doors will be decorated with red couplets„

分析：原文中“粘贴”的意思其实就是用对联装饰门窗，如果直译的话表达不出真实的意图，因此这里用了“decorate”，表意更直接。

2、词类转换

词类转换是汉译英常用的一种手段。汉语的动态性和具体性特点使其在语言运用上多用动词。英语则因其静态性和抽象性特点在语言使用上呈现出名词化和介词化倾向。在汉译英的过程中，适当转换词性，可以使泽文更符合英语表达习惯。

(1)动词→名词

汉语巾动词使用比较频繁，而且动词既没有时态变化的约束，也没有谓语动词和非谓语动词的形式之分，动词甚至可以充当句子的各种成分。相反，英语动词的使用受到形态变化规则的严格限制。一个句子往往只有一个谓语动词，大量原来应该由动词表达的概念，常需借助于名词，因为名词比较不受形态规则变化的束缚，使用相对灵活、方便。

例

原文：各地欢度春节的习俗和传统有很大差异。

译文：Customs and traditions concerning the celebration of the Chinese New Year vary widely from place to place.分析：原句中“欢度”是动词，但是如果译文中也用动词来表达，则整个句子的结构显得罗嗦，不够整洁，所以译文中用了“celebration”来表达，使得整个甸子更匀称、清晰。

(2)动词→介词

介词与名词密切相关，英语名词的广泛使用使得介词也得以频繁出现。而且英语中有些介词本身是由动词演变而来的，具有动词的特征。因此，汉译英时，有些动词可以用介词来表达。

例

原文：但通常每个家庭都会在除夕夜团聚，一起吃年夜饭。

However, New Year's Eve is usually an occasion for Chinese families to gather for the annual reunion dinner.(3)动词→形容词

汉语的一些动词也常常可以用英语的形容词来表达，这些形容词通常是与动词同源的词这样的译文有时比直接使用动词更地道、标准。

例

原文：在明朝和清朝时期(the Ming and Qing Dynasties)特别流行。

译文：It was widespread particularly during the Ming and Qing dynasties.由于语法结构和修辞的需要，汉语的形容词和副词也可以转译成英语的名词。

例

原文„„只有这些生灵自由自在地享受着这个黄昏。

译文„leaving these living things to enj0Y this moment of dusk with full ease and freedom.(5)名词→动词

有些情况下，汉语的名词由英语的动词表达，此时汉语中修饰名词的形容词也随之改为英语中作状语使用的副词。

例

原文：地欢度春节的习俗和传统有很大差异。

译文：Customs and traditions concerning the celebration of the chinese New Year vary widely from place to place.分析：原文中“差异”为名词，为了符合英文的表达习惯，译文中将其转换为动词“vary”，原文中修饰“差异”一词的形容词“很大”转换为了副词“widely”，使译文更生动。

3、词的增补

(1)语法需要

由于汉英两种语言的差异，汉译英时往往需要补充汉语里省去的词语或没有的词类，以使译文符合英语语法的要求。增词译法在汉译英中实际上是添加原文为了语言简洁而省去的成分，增补的词多为冠词(英语所特有)、代词或名词(充当句子的主语、宾语、定语等成分)、连词和介词等。

例

原文：但通常每个家庭都会在除夕夜团聚，一起吃年夜饭。

译文：However，New Year's Eve is usually an occasion for Chinese families to gather for the annual reunion dinner.分析：英语中用得最多的介词有at, by，for，from，in，of，on，to和with。这些介词是连接英语句子的重要纽带，在英语中起着极其重要的作用。汉译英时，要根据上下文搭配灵活地选择介词。另外，译文中增译“all occasion”来解释说明“除夕夜”的作用，使得除夕夜的作用更加突出，彰显r巾国人对于除夕夜的重视。

(2)意思表达需要

例

原文：这是黄河滩上的一幕。

译文：This is a scene taking place on the shore of the Yellow River.分析：在翻译“这是黄河滩上的一幕”时，增译taking place短语，使译文表达更为生动贴切。

(3)文化背景解释的需要

中西文化差异的存在使得英语和汉语包含着许多文化色彩浓厚且不易为译文读者所理解的词语。因此，在翻译过程中需要使用增词译法，把棚关文化背景知识翻译出来。例

原文：三个臭皮匠，胜过诸葛亮。

译文：The wit of three cobblers combined surpasses that of Zhuge Liang，the master mind.4、词的减省

所谓词的减省，就是翻译时，把原文中一些仅仅为了语法上的需要而存在的词、词组加以适当省略，从而达到译文通顺、意思完整而句子精练的目的。汉语中重复的部分可以是主语、谓语、宾语、表语、定语等，在译成英语时需适当删减，以保持句子的通畅。

例

原文：为驱厄运、迎好运，家家户户都会进行大扫除。

译文：It is also traditional for every family to thoroughly clean the house in order to

sweep away misfortune and bring in good luck.分析：删减了原句中的“进行”一词。

5、词的替代

重复是汉语中常用的一种语篇衔接手段，虽然英语中也用重复，但多是利用词语的重复来体现语义的强调或进行语言润饰。汉语以重复见长，英语则以省略见长。因此在汉译英时，可采用替代的方法来避免重复。在英语中主要有三种替代现象：名词成分替代、谓语成分替代和分句替代。

1.注意时态

汉语当中多主动，英语当中多被动。

2.注意用词

翻译重点考察语言的应用能力，所以在考试时，应尽量避免使用一些过于简单的词汇，而应选择一些更高级的词汇。比如“have to”可以换成“be obliged to”，“help to”可以换成“contribute to”。

3.注意搭配

这里的搭配主要指一些固定搭配。比如“学习知识”不用“learn knowledge”，而必须用“acquire knowledge”;“concern”后面的介词必须跟“over”而不是“of”等等。

下面给大家总结出了常见的一些搭配:

动词和名词的搭配：

raise awareness, adopt measures, take steps, adopt approaches

动词词组的搭配：

give a green light to, deepen one’s understanding of, pave the way for

形容词和名词的搭配：

compelling reason, ample evidence, harsh punishment

名词词组environmental awareness, coverage of crime, health effect

介宾短语的搭配in the media, on the internet, on television, in newspapers

表示某个特定意思的习惯搭配：

lead a fulfilling life, close the rich/poor gap, discriminate between right and wrong

have a higher chance of developing cancer, fail to achieve work-life balance

避免中式英文的直接翻译

improve the problem →solve the problem or improve the situation

接触暴力contact with violence→exposure to violence

针对儿童的广告advertisements about children→advertisements aimed at children.4.懂得变通词汇

另辟蹊径，试着用几个词去解释自己突然想不起的单词或者找同义词，近义词来替换。

如“匿名”对应的单词是“anonymity”，可以用“a unknown name”来代替。”美化”对应的单词“beautify”,可以用“make sth more beautiful”来代替。英语六级翻译常考词组有哪些?下面新东方小编为您整理了英语六级翻译常考词组100条，请大家熟悉记忆。

每种文化都有自己的行为准则，中国也不例外。在中国，跟别人打招呼时，你或者点个头，或者微微鞠个躬。握手也很常见，但你要等到中国朋友先伸手才可以。另外，与西方社会的做法截然相反，中国人不太喜欢被陌生人触碰。所以不要轻易地触碰别人，除非你完全有这样的必要。最后一点，根据儒家思想(Confiicianism)的观点，老人在任何情况下都应该受到年轻人的尊敬。你应该总是以老人为先，并对他们表本最大的敬意。

翻译：Every culture has its rules on how to act，and China is no different.In China,to greet someone, you nod your head，or you bow slightly.Handshakes are also common, but you should wait for your Chinese partner to initiate the motion.In addition，as opposed to those found in Western society，Chinese people do not enjoy being touched by strangers.Don’t touch someone unless you absolutely have to.Finally, from the perspective of Confucianism, the elders are to be respected in every situation by those who are younger.You should always acknowledge the elders first,and show the most respect to them.讲解：1.行为准则：有多种译法，如rules on how to act, rules of conduct或standard of behavior。

吹糖人

作为中国传统的民间艺术，吹糖人(Sugar Figure Blowing Art)历史悠久，然而随着中国经济的发展，这一艺术正渐渐消失。据说这一民间艺术始于宋朝，当时被称为戏剧糖果(operacandy)。吹糖人以糖作为基本材料，糖人艺人用自己的方法熬 ft,然g吹或各种人物。艺人先把糖加热到适当的温度，然后拉一些糖稀(syrup)捏成一团，再用各种技巧做出不同的形状,并涂上鲜艳的颜色。这种艺术是手、眼、心、呼吸和一定温度所需时间控制的真正结合。一项技术不过关，整个过程都会失敗。

翻译：As a truditional Chinese folk art, the Sugar Figure Blowing Art have a long history.But it is gradually disappearing in the process of economic development in China.It is said that this folk drt was formed in the Song Dynasty;at that time it wan called opera candy.The Sugar Figure Blowing Art uses sugar as its basic material, and the artists have their own ways to boil sugar and blow it into various figures.Artists heat up sugar to proper temperature, then pull some syrup and knead it to a ball.Then they make different shapes by using different skills and paint bright colors on the figures.This art is really a combination of hand, eye, heart, breath, and the timing of temperature skill.If there is one skill you couldn’t perform well, the whole procedure will be a failure.解析：1.历史悠久:可译为have a long history.2.戏剧糖果:可译为opera candy.3.以糖作为基本材料：可译为uses sugar as its basic material。中国民间艺

中国民间艺术与中国哲学统一于“阴阳(yin-yang)生万物”这一理念。这一理念源于中国原始社会，是对人类的人生感悟的哲学注解。中国人祖先的哲学论断是“近看自己，远观他人”。要理解中华民族民间艺术的原始艺术，这一结论必不可少。人类的本能欲望是生存并通过繁衍(propagation)继续存在。人生来的首要本能是求生，然后是长寿。从原始社会到今天，阴阳和永生的观念始终贯穿中国的社会生活和民族文化。中国民间艺术反映了社会的所有基本哲学理念。

翻译：Chinese folk art and Chinese philosophy are unified in the belief that yin-yang produces all living things in the world.Originated in Chinese primitive society, this was the philosophical explanation of human's perception of life.Chinese ancestors philosophical conclusion was to “look at oneself up close and other creatures from afar”，which is essential to the understanding of the primitive art to the folk art of the nation.To live and to continue life through propagation are the two instinctive desires of human.From birth, a person's first instinct is to survive, and then to live a long life.From primitive society to the present day, the view of yin-yang and perpetual life has permeated in all aspects of social life and the national culture of Chinese society.Chinese folk art reflects all of the basic philosophical concepts.讲解：1.阴阳生万物：可译为；yin-yang produces all living things in the world。

2.源于：可用originate in，spring from或stem from来表达。

3.人类的人生感悟：可译为human's perception of life。

4.近看自己，远观他人：可译为look at oneself up close and other creatures from afar。其中look at sth.up dose意为“近距离观察某物”。

5.人类的本能欲望：可译为instinctive desires of human其中instinctive意为“本能的”。

6.贯穿中国的社会生活和民族文化：可译为be in all aspects of social life and the national culture of Chinese society。

7.所有基本哲学理念：可译为all of the basic philosophical concepts。

译文：Every culture has its rules on how to act，and Chinais no different.In China,to greet someone, you nodyour head，or you bow slightly.Handshakes arealso common, but you should wait for your Chinesepartner to initiate the motion.In addition，asopposed to those found in Western society，Chinese people do not enjoy being touched bystrangers.Don’t touch someone unless you absolutely have to.Finally, from the perspectiveof Confucianism, the elders are to be respected in every situation by those who are younger.You should always acknowledge the elders first,and show the most respect to them.解析：1.行为准则：有多种译法，如rules on how to act, rules of conduct或standard of behavior。

2.中国也不例外：可译为China is no different或China is no exception。

3.打招呼:即greet。

4.截然相反：可译为as opposed to。

5.在任何情况下：可使用短语in every situation表达。

6.以老人为先：可译为acknowledge the elders first。

中文热词通常反映社会变化和文化，有些在外国媒体上愈来愈流行。例如，土豪(tuhao)和大妈(dama)都是老词，但是已获取了新的意义。土豪以前指欺压佃户和仆人的乡村地主，现在用于指花钱如流水或者喜欢炫耀财富的人，也就是说，土豪有钱，但没有品位。大妈是对中年妇女的称呼，但现在特指不久前金价下跌时大量购买黄精的中国妇女。土豪和大妈可能会被人收入新版牛津(Oxford)英语词典，至今已有约120个中文词被加进了牛津英语词典，成为了英语语言的一部分。

翻译

The Chinese heated words usually reflectsocial changes and culture, some of which are increasingly popular with foreignmedia.Tuhao and dama, for example, are both old words, but they get differentmeanings now。

The word tuhao used to mean rural landlordswho oppress their tenants and servants, while now it refers to people spendingmoney without limits or those showing off all around.That is to say, tuhaoowns money rather than taste.The word dama is used to describe middle-agedwomen.However, it is regarded as a special word to call those Chinese womenwho rushed to purchase gold when the gold price decreased sharply not long ago。

Tuhaoand dama may be included in the new Oxford dictionary.Up to now, about 120Chinese words have been listed in it and became part of the English language.【真题】—科学发展

最近，中国科学院(Chinese Academy of Sciences)出版了关于其最新科学发现与未来一年展望的系列报告。系列报告包括三部分：科学发展报告、高技术发展报告、中国可持续发展战略报告。第一份报告包含中国科学家的最新发现，诸如新粒子研究与H7N9病毒研究的突破，该报告还突出强调了未来几年需要关注的问题。第二份报告公布了一些应用科学研究的突破。该报告还突出强调了未来几年需要关注的问题。第二份报告公布了一些应用科学研究的热门领域。如3D打印和人造器官研究。第三份报告呼吁加强顶层设计，以消除工业升级中的结构性障碍，并促进节能减排。

翻译：ChineseAcademy of Science recently published an annual report about its latestscientific findings and the prospect of the next year.The report consists ofthree parts:science development, more advanced technology development and thesustainable strategy of China.The first one includes the latest findings ofChinese scientists, such as the research of new particle and the breakthroughin the study of H7N9 virus.Furthermore, it highlights some problems we need tofocus in next few years.The second one announces some heated fields in appliedscience.For example, the 3－dimension print and the study of artificialorgans.The third one suggests people enhance the top design in order to getrid of the structural obstacles in industrial upgrading and to promote theenergy-saving and emission-reduction.【真题】—丝绸之路

闻名于世的丝绸之路是一系列连接东西方的路线。丝绸之路延伸6,000多公里，得名于古代中国的丝绸贸易。丝绸之路上的贸易在中国、南亚、欧洲和中东文明发展中发挥了重要作用。正是通过丝绸之路，中国的造纸、火药、指南针、印刷术等四大发明才被引介到世界各地。同样，中国的丝绸、茶叶和瓷器（porcelain）也传遍全球。物质文化的交流是双向的，欧洲也通过丝绸之路出口各种商品和植物，满足中国市场的需求。

翻译：The world-renowned Silk Road is a series of routes connecting the East and the West.It extended more than 6,000 kilometers.The Silk Road was named after ancient China’s silk trade which played an important role in the civilization development of China, South Asia, Europe and the Middle East.It was through the Silk Road that papermaking, gunpowder, compass and printing of the four great inventions of ancient China were introduced around the world.Similarly, Chinese silk, tea and porcelain spread all over the world.Europe also exported various goods and plants through the Silk Road to meet the needs of the Chinese market.【真题】—治理污染

北京计划未来三年投资7，600亿元治理污染，从减少PM2.5排放入手，这一新公布的计划旨在减少四种主要污染源，包括500多万俩机动车的尾气(exhaust)排放、周边地区燃煤、来自北方的沙尘暴和本地的建筑灰尘。另有850亿元用于新建或升级城市垃圾处理和污水(sewage)处理设施，加上300亿元投资未来三年的植树造林(forestation)市政府还计划建造一批水循环利用工厂，并制止违章建筑，以改善环境。另外，将更严厉地处罚违反限排规定的行为。

翻译：Beijing is going to invest 760 billion yuan to curb environmental pollution in the next three years, starting from reducing the emissions of pm 2.5 emissions.The newly announced plan is intended to reduce the four major sources of pollution, including exhaust emissions of 5 million motor vehicles, coal-burning in surrounding areas, sandstorms from the north and construction dust in the locality.Another 85 billion yuan is used for establishing or upgrading the facilities of municipal waste treatment and sewage treatment.Besides, 30 billion yuan invests to the afforestation program in the next three years.In order to improve the environment, the municipal government also plans to build a good number of plants which can use recycled water and to stop illegal construction.In addition, Beijing will punish those people who violate the regulations of emission-reduction more severely.中西方对动物的不同解读

同一种动物在东西方不同的文化背景下所表达的含义不尽相同。在西方人眼里，蝙蝠就是一个邪恶、丑陋的吸血鬼(bloodsucker)。但是在我国南方，旧式住宅的门上常常雕刻着蝙蝠，因为蝙蝠是好运、健康、财富、幸福的象征。西方人认为孔雀走起路来总是趾高气扬，目中无人，头冠(crown)频频摆动，还不时开屏炫耀其美丽，这是“骄傲”、“虚荣”的表现。而中国人认为孔雀开屏是喜庆吉祥的象征，所以人们常用孔雀比喻美丽的人或事物。

翻译：The same animal in different culture backgrounds between the East and the West respectively expresses different meanings.To the West, bats are evil, ugly bloodsucker;but in southern China, bats are often carved on the doors of the old houses, because they are symbols of fortune, health, wealth and happiness.Westerners generally believe that the peacock always walks around with her nose in the air, swinging its crown repeatedly, and shows off its beautiful tail frequently.These are signs of pride and vanity.In contrast,Chinese think it symbolizes joy and luck that the peacock spreads its tail.So people often compare the peacock to beautiful persons or things.解析：1.东西方不同的文化背景:可译为different culture backgrounds between the East and the West。

2.上雕刻着:可译为被动形式be carved on„

3.走起路来总是趾高气扬，目中无人:可简译为always walks around with her nose in the air。with one's nose in the air即有“目中无人地”意思。

4.孔雀开屏:可译为 the peacock spreads its tail。

华佗是中国东汉(the Eastern Period)和三国时期(the Three Kingdoms Period)著名的医生。他擅长各个医学领域，尤其是外科手术。他被后人称为“外科圣手”(Surgeon Master)”和“外科鼻祖(Founder of Surgery)”。他是一个受过良好教育的人，熟悉古典文学。然而，他拒绝了高官的推荐，决定做一名给老百姓治病的医生。他在开处方和治疗疾病方面技术精湛。此外，他的名字总是和外科手术相联系，因为他被认为是中国第一个外科医生。

如今，中国正步入老龄化社会，因此独生子女一代面临着巨大的工作和生活压力。中国政府开始适当调整计划生育政策，允许一些家庭在特殊情况下生育二胎。但调查显示，很多夫妻迫于不断加重的经济压力，放弃生育二胎。因此，要从根本上解决老龄化的问题不能依靠出生率的上升，最有效的办法是建立有效的社会保障制度。

和平稳定是发展的前提和基础。上个世纪，人类经历了两次世界大战，生灵涂炭，经济社会发展遭受严重挫折。第二次世界大战结束以来，世界经济能够快速增长，主要得益于相对和平稳定的国际环境。

我们应该恪守联合国宪章宗旨和原则，充分发挥联合国及其安理会在维护和平、缔造和平、建设和平方面的核心作用。坚持通过对话和协商，以和平方式解决国际争端。

我们应该坚持国家不论大小、强弱、贫富都是国际社会平等一员，以民主、包容、合作、共赢的精神实现共同安全，做到一国内部的事情一国自主办、大家共同的事情大家商量办，坚定不移奉行多边主义和国际合作，推进国际关系民主化。

Peace and stability form the prerequisite and foundation for development.The two world wars in the last century caused mankind untold sufferings and world economic and social development severe setbacks.It is mainly due to the relatively peaceful and stable international environment that the world economy has been able to grow at a fast pace in the post-war era.We should abide by the purposes and principles of the UN Charter and bring into full play the central role of the United Nations and its Security Council in peace keeping, peace making and peace building.We should seek peaceful settlement of international disputes through dialogue and consultation.All countries, big or small, strong or weak, rich or poor, are equal members of the international community.We should work for common security in a spirit of democracy, inclusiveness, cooperation and win-win progress.Internal affairs of a country should be handled independently by the country itself and international affairs should be managed collectively through consultation by all.We should be committed to multilateralism and international cooperation, and promote democracy in international relations.从某种意义上说，汉语是一种很古老的语言，其最早的汉字已有近四千年的历史了。汉字在其漫长的发展史中演化成许多不同的书写形式，例如篆书、隶书、楷书和行书。中国书法家往往使汉字的字形夸张以取得艺术效果，例如旅游胜地的一些石刻碑文。中国书法是一门研究艺术，随着各位学习兴趣的提高，我们将适时介绍中国书法的流派，以及如何欣赏中国书法的艺术性。

尽管中国古代神话(mythology)没有十分完整的情节，神话人物也没有系统的家谱(genealogy)，但它们却有着鲜明的东方文化特色，其中尤为显著的是它的尚德精神(the spirit of esteeming virtue)。这种尚德精神在与西方神话特别是希腊神话比较时，显得更加突出。在西方神话尤其是希腊神话中，对神的褒贬标准多以智慧、力量为准则，而中国古代神话对神的褒贬则多以道德为准绳。这种思维方式深植于中国的文化之中。几千年来，这种尚德精神影响着人们对历史人物的品评与现实人物的期望。

译文：

Although ancient Chinese mythology does not have relatively complete plot and mythological figures don't have systematic genealogy, they have distinct features of oriental culture, among which the spirit of esteeming virtue is particularly significant.When compared with Western mythology, especially Greek mythology, this spirit of esteeming virtue is even more prominent.In Western mythology, especially Greek mythology,the criteria for judging whether a god is good or not are mostly the god's wisdom and strength,while in ancient Chinese mythology, the criterion lies in morality.This way of thinking is deeply rooted in Chinese culture.For thousands of years, this spirit of esteeming virtue has affected people's comments on historical figures and expectations of real people.敬茶礼仪

当今社会，客来敬茶已经成为人们日常社交和家庭生活中普遍的往来礼仪。俗话说:酒满茶半。上茶时应以右手端茶，从客人的右方奉上，并时带微笑。当然，喝茶的客人也要以礼还礼，双手接过，点头致谢。品茶时，讲究小口品饮，其妙趣在于意会而不可言传。另外，可适当称赞主人茶好。总之，敬茶是国人礼仪中待客的一种日常礼节，也是社会交往的一项内容，不仅是对客人、朋友的尊重, 也能体现自己的修养(self-cultivation)。

翻译：

丁克家庭

中国有一句俗语叫做“不孝有三，无后为大”。但现在，很多时尚的年轻夫妇选择不生育孩子的生活方式，组建了丁克家庭。很多夫妻担心无法给孩子提供优越的生活条件，选择成为丁克家庭。现在，孩子的教育费用比过去高很多。在大城市，送孩子上好一点的幼儿园要花费巨资，重点中小学的学费更高。还有一些夫妻成为丁克家庭是迫不得已。当他们做好准备生育孩子时，已经错过了最佳生育年龄。

译文：

A popular saying has it that “There are three forms of unfilial conduct, of which the worst is to have no descendants.”But now, it is quite fashionable for many young couples to choose a lifestyle without kids and organize the DINK family.Some couples who choose DINK family are fearful that they cannot provide favourable living conditions for children.Nowadays, the cost of educating a child is much higher than that of the past.In a big city, to send a child to a better kindergarten takes a large amount of money and the key primary or secondary schools are even more expensive.Some couples who have chosen DINK family are obliged to do so.When they make preparations for having a baby, it is a pity that they have missed the most fertile years.翻译词汇：

赡养父母

在大家庭里，老一辈人的意见受到尊重，小一辈人得到全家的呵护。中国宪法规定赡养父母是成年子女义不容辞的责任。在城市里，不和家里老人一起住的年轻夫妇给老人提供生活费并帮助他们干家务活儿。在农村，尽管大家庭解体了，许多结了婚的儿子和他的家人还和父母住在同一个院子里。对他们来说，分家不过是分灶而已。结了婚的儿子往往把房子盖在父母家附近，这样父母和子女互相帮助、探望都和过去一样方便。

译文：

In extended families, the older members’ opinions are respected, and the youngest members are loved and taken good care of by all.China’s Constitution stipulates that grown-up children are duty-bound to support their parents.In the cities, couples who do not live with their aged parents offer them living allowances and help them with the chores.In the countryside, though quite a number of extended families have dissolved, many married sons and their families continue to live in the same courtyard with their parents.To them, breaking up the extended family means only cooking their meals separately.Most often they have their houses built near their parents’ home, making it convenient for parents and children to help and visit each other as before.翻译词汇：

歌谣和神话

远在文字出现之前，歌谣跟口头流传的神话就已大量产生。中国的文学正是开始于此。不过，歌谣本是人们在生活中随兴而发的东西，上古时代也没有保存和记载它们的方式，因此也就很快湮灭，不留痕迹。如今，我们只能从一些古书中推断它们的存在。古书中记载了一些年代非常久远的歌谣，但是大多出于后人的伪托，能够断定出处的歌谣要到《诗经》里才能看见。从这点来看，古代神话对中国文学的影响更为显著。

翻译词汇：

歌谣 ballad

随兴而发 improvise

痕迹 trace

推断 deduce

年代非常久远的 time-honored

伪托 derivative

《诗经》 The Book of Songs

译文：

Long before the emergence of the written word, ballads and myths, passed around by word of mouth, were widely popular.Chinese literature finds its origins in these traditions.However, ballads were what people improvised out of daily life, and due to lack of means to record and preserve them in ancient times, they quickly disappeared without leaving much of a trace.Today, we can only deduce their existence from ancient books, which recorded some time-honored ballads, though most of these are believed to be derivatives of later generations.Ballads in The Book of Songs are the earliest writings that can be dated.From this point of view, ancient mythology has had a greater influence on Chinese literature.中国书法

书法(calligraphy)是中国文化的精髓。书法在中国随处可见，与日常生活紧密相连。书法作品能装点客厅、书房和卧室。它是将汉字写在吸水性良好的宣纸(Xuan paper)上，然后将作品贴在一块镶有丝绸边的厚纸上，安上卷轴（scroll)或用画框装裱起来挂在墙上。书法作品通常是一首诗、一副对联或主人很喜欢的座右铭。主人亲自书写的作品将体现他的愿望、兴趣以及文学或艺术才华。一幅书法作品可以给白色的墙壁增添活力，为宾客友人带来快乐。

译文：

Calligraphy is the essence of Chinese culture.It can be found everywhere in China, and is closely linked to daily life.Calligraphic works decorate sitting rooms, studies and bedrooms.The Chinese characters are written on Xuan paper which is good at absorbing ink.The work will be pasted on a piece of thick paper with a silk edge, and then mounted on a scroll or put into a picture frame for hanging on the wall.Usually, a calligraphic work contains a poem, a pair of couplets or a motto the owner likes very much.If the calligraphic work is written by the owner himself, it will demonstrate his wish and interest as well as his literary or artistic talent.A calligraphic work can bring vitality to the white wall,pleasure to guests and friends.翻译词汇：

1...的精髓:可译为the essence of。essence在这里意为“精髓，精华，另外它还有“本质”的意思。

2.随处可见:文中译为can be found everywhere，还可以用can be seen everywhere表达。

3.吸水性良好的:可理解为“善于吸水的”，即is good at absorbing ink。

4.安上卷轴:可译为mounted on a scroll。其中mount意为“安装”。

5.装裱起来:可理解为“放进画框”，译为put into a picture frame。

6.一副对联:可译为a pair of couplets。其中couplet意为“对联；对句”。

7.艺术才华:可译为 artistic talent。

8.增添活力:可译为bring vitality to，即“为...带来活力”。

中国礼仪

中国文化中，一个家庭或一个组织中最年长的人享有最多的尊敬、荣誉和尊严。对家庭女性而言，最高辈分的长媳比其余的媳妇和儿媳(daughter-in-law)更有权力。年轻人会称呼年长的人“爷爷”、“奶奶”、“叔叔”和“婶婶”以示尊重，即使和那个人没有血缘关系(blood lineage)。中国人坚持的一个传统就是当父母上年纪时候要一直亲自照顾他们。

译文：

In Chinese culture, the oldest person in a family or an organization has the most respect, honor, and dignity.For family ladies, the first elder wife holds more power than the next wives and daughters-in-law.The young people will call an older person “Ye Ye”(grandfather), “Nai Nai”(grandmother), “Shu Shu”(uncle), and “Shen Shen”(aunt)as a sign of respect even if there is not blood lineage.A tradition that Chinese people hold on to is taking care of their parents personally when they get older.光棍节

光棍节(Singles'Day)-11月11日是在20世纪90年代开始流行的。单身青年互相请客吃饭或送礼物给心上人，以告别单身。赠送礼物的传统使光棍节成为购物节，因为所有销售商，从卖珠宝的到卖电视的，甚至到卖汽车的，都看到了这个营销机会，并推出了光棍节促销活动。这是美国“网络星期一(CyberMonday)”—感恩节周末后的第一天—的翻版，这天圣诞采购开始，是商人售卖最忙碌的一天。

译文：

Singles，Day —Nov.11 began to gain its popularityin the 1990s.Unattached young people would treateach other to dinner or give gifts to the personhe/she loves to end their single status.That gift-giving helped to turn Singles'Day into a shoppingfestival as sellers of everything from jewelry to TVs，even to cars saw a marketingopportunity and launched Singles'Day sales.It is similar to Monday in the United States—theday after Thanksgiving weekend，when online Christmas shopping begins and merchants havetheir busiest sales day.中国幸运数字

中国幸运数字(lucky numbers)的概念与其他文化相似。对广东人来说，区别好数字与坏数字的关键是根据发音。例如，2是幸运的，因为它和“容易”的发音相似。3与生活有关。4在汉语里听起来像“死”。6代表好运。8与“繁荣”有关，所有场合都适用。9与“永恒(eternity)”相联系。起初只有皇家(the imperial family)才能用9。例如，故宫就设计有9999个房间。

译文：

The Chinese concept of lucky numbers is similar tothat of other cultures.The key to distinguish goodor bad numbers for Cantonese is based on sound,For example, the number two is fortunate, becauseit is similar to the sound of “easy”.Three isassociated with living.The number four sounds like “death”in Chinese.Six represents good luck.Eight is associated with “prosperity” and is desirable for all occasions.Nine is associated with“eternity”.Originally it could only be used by the imperial family.For example,the Forbidden Citywas designed with 9,999 rooms.中国神话故事

夺分要点

翻译一直追求“信”、“达”、“雅”。庆幸的是，六级考试中要求没有那么高，我们只要做到“信”和“达”就可以啦。对于实力较强的同学，如果想在翻译题中夺得高分，千万不要忽视以下四个要点：

1、高级词汇。翻译时，尽量表现出自己的语言水平，避免使用一些过于简单的词汇，而要选择一些更高级的词汇，例如“have to”可以换成“be obliged to”。

2、句式多样。可以有选择性地运用倒装结构、被动语态、否定句、虚拟语气、比较结构、从句、非谓语动词等句型，让句式结构更加丰富多彩。

Ø 例：正是通过丝绸之路，中国的造纸、火药、指南针、印刷术等四大发明才被引介到世界各地。

Ø 一般译文：The Silk Road introduced four Chinese inventions to the world.They were papermaking, gunpowder, compass and printing.Ø 高分译文：It was through the Silk Road that the four great inventions of ancient China, namely papermaking, gunpowder, compass and printing, were introduced to the world.Ø 点评：“一般译文”为两个主动语态的简单句，“高分译文”将其整合成了一个被动句。把“正是„„才„„”处理成了“It was„ that„”的强调句型，并将“造纸、火药、指南针、印刷术”处理成了插入语“namely papermaking, gunpowder, compass and printing”。

3、长难句。译文中如果出现1~2个长难句，可以立马吸引考官的眼球，瞬间让译文变身高大上，提升水平档次。

Ø 例：物质文化的交流是双向的，欧洲也通过丝绸之路出口各种商品和植物，满足中国市场的需求。

Ø 一般译文：The exchange of material culture is a two-way process.Europe also exported various goods and plants through the Silk Road.It could meet the needs of the Chinese market.Ø 高分译文：As the exchange of material culture is a two-way process, various goods and plants were also exported through the Silk Road from Europe to China to meet the needs of the Chinese market.Ø 点评：“一般译文”为三个简单句，而“高分译文”将其合并成了一个长句。把“物质文化的交流是双向的”处理为状语从句“As the exchange of material culture is a two-way process”，并将“满足中国市场的需求”作为目的状语“to meet the needs of the Chinese market”。

4、字迹工整。翻译过程中难免会进行多次修改，从而影响卷面整洁，所以一定要先打草稿，整洁的卷面有助于增加印象分哦~

这四个妙招同学们肯定都非常熟悉，但却常常被大家忽视。例如，小明在做翻译时，总是习惯性地使用基础词汇，然后又习惯性地使用简单句型，当时间紧迫时还会紧张地老写错别字，导致在卷面上涂涂改改，影响美观。不知不觉，小明默默地走上了“低分”之路。所以，教研君要提醒大家，应时刻将这四招牢记于心，并且认真贯彻实施，那么，“高分”就在向你们招手哦~

最后，同学们也来练练手吧，拼一拼谁的词汇更高级~

1.钢筋、水泥等生产资料大幅度增长。

The Prevalence of Western Holidays

It is noticeable that western holidays are becoming increasingly popular day by day, while Chinese traditional holidays are being somewhat neglected.Old people often complain that Chinese New Year has lost its real meaning.To their astonishment, young people in China, ignorant about Chinese traditional holidays, are crazy about Christmas or Valentine Day.There are several possible reasons for this phenomenon.First, western nations, such as the United States and Britain, are powerful and dominant in every aspect.Everything in these countries is assumed to be superior and adored by some modern young people.Second, the prevalence of English as a world language and the development of globalization enable western culture to flood in China.Overwhelmed by such a trend, Chinese unconsciously get involved in western culture.Last but not least, some Chinese people have blind faith in foreign things while dismiss our own possessions with contempt.I am critical of this trend.China boasts a brilliant history and splendid traditions.In modern times, Chinese tradition should be preserved and promoted.But it seems that young people no longer treasure the tradition.On the contrary, they turn to pursue enthusiastically a supposedly more modern culture.If this trend is allowed to continue, the priceless heritage of our ancestors will be replaced by western traditions.Nobody expects such a consequence.So let join hand in hand to protect Chinese tradition.1.据统计，在网上聊天交友、玩网络游戏是目前我国大学生上网的主要活动内容

What are College Students doing on the Internet?

Nowadays surfing the Internet has become very popular on campus.I am impressed most that many college students spend too much time playing games and chatting on the Internet.As is well known, chatting and playing and can do much harm to us if we spend too much time on the virtual world.Firstly, it is an enormous waste of time and we will have little time for our study.Secondly, those who play games or chat day and night will be harmed physically for lack of rest and sleep.Thirdly, our social ties will suffer as a result of the immersion in the virtual world.The last but not the least, it will cost us much money.In my opinion, we should deal with the Internet carefully.On the one hand, we can get some pleasure and knowledge from the Internet.On the other hand, we shouldn’t spend too much time, energy and money on the Internet because study is our priority.In conclusion, we should make good and proper use of the Internet.工作的选择

A recent survey shows that people who get higher salaries generally work longer hours than those who get lower salaries.Some people favor higher-paying jobs, even though such jobs always result in longer work time.They believe that money is so indispensable in people’s lives that without it no material comforts or well-being can be guaranteed.However, others have different preferences.They would rather take up lower-paying jobs with shorter hours.In their eyes, money doesn’t necessarily ensure happiness and well-being.They want to spend more time in doing their likes and getting together with their family and friends.As for me, I prefer to take up a job with shorter hours even if it pays less.In my opinion, work is not our whole life.We should allocate enough time to our family and friends and have more time to enjoy our life.Besides, we are not machines.We need time to relax and rest so that we could be energetic enough to do our job better.校园“考证族”的队伍不断壮大，很多学生忙于考区各种资格证书大学生忙考证的利弊你的观点

On Qualification-obtaining Fever

Currently, there is a long-lasting fever of obtaining a variety of qualifications among college students, including vocational qualifications and skills certificates.Many students spend their weekends and vocation in preparing for tests on English, Law and Computer Science.Even after their graduation, some of them are still having full enthusiasm on it.No doubt qualifications have attractions of their own.They are evidences to confirm students’ abilities.Work-related or competence-based qualifications may even help students find a satisfactory job, so students hold the opinion that they are obtaining not credentials but opportunities for their future.However, as it is known to all that each coin has its two sides, obtaining qualifications also brings negative influences in spite of its advantages.First, some vocational qualifications are obtained at the expense of the basic discipline study or major learning.Second, it will take 300 to 500 Yuan to go in for a certain certificate, leading to great financial burden.Third, better jobs do not always necessarily follow more qualifications.From my point of view, what matters most is relevant experience or skill, not the number of credentials you have obtained.[Next Page好词佳句]

Road Accidents

Road accidents, as one of the important social problems, have always been paid great concern.In most of the big cities, every day, there happen quite a few road accidents.In these accidents, many people suffer great property losses and some of them even lose their lives.The following reasons contribute to road accidents.Above all, traffic is becoming heavier and heavier, especially in big cities.More and more vehicles on road increase the chances of accidents.In addition, many drivers lack safety awareness and even don’t comply with the traffic regulations.For example, some drivers run the red light or drive after being drunk.Besides, the weak supervision and management of traffic control sectors is a noticeable reason.Considering the seriousness of the traffic problem, it is high time for us to take more effective measures to solve it.Firstly, the government should invest more money to improve public transportation and provide more transportation ways for people to choose.Secondly, stricter laws and regulations should be made to punish those who break traffic regulations.Finally, drivers should enhance safety awareness and develop good driving manners.Only in this way could road accidents be avoided successfully.2009年英语六级作文预测范文第二篇

Cyber Crimes

With the popularization of Internet, cyber-crimes have become a serious problem facing us.Nowadays cyber criminals seem to be everywhere on the Internet.To illustrate, some commit fraud or lift intellectual property, others snatch passwords or disrupt e-commerce, and still others unleash viruses to crash computers.As a result, these crimes destroy network security greatly and make computer users suffer great losses。

However, we shouldn’t tolerate these cyber criminals any more.It’s high time for us to take effective measures to fight against cyber-crimes.First, we should reinforce the cyber laws to punish cyber criminals strictly.Moreover, we should develop high techniques as soon as possible to improve intrusion detection and prevent cyber-crimes.Besides, more talented people should be trained and more effective firewalls should be built up so as to make the net immune to all kinds of viruses。

As college students, we have responsibility to join the battle against cyber-crimes.For one thing, we should not use others’ computers unless we get permission.For another, we should be honest to others on the Internet and not release or spread unreal information.In a word, it takes our common efforts to defeat cyber crimes。

Attending TV PK Shows Does No Good to Young People

Nowadays TV PK shows are great hits in China and have attracted many young people.Some youngsters even give up their studies to attend these shows in the hope of becoming famous overnight.Some people think these shows provide young people more chance to show talents, while others believe that attending these shows does no good to the young people.As for me, I prefer to the latter opinion。

It should be admitted that some young people like Li yuchun has stood out from the numerous attendants in the PK show, but that doesn’t mean attending the PK shows is a good way to become successful for young people.The following reasons can support my view.Firstly, TV PK shows breed restlessness and induce young people to hunt after fame at whatever cost.Secondly, TV PK shows can subvert the youngsters’ values.They think attending the PK shows is a shortcut to the success, so they may despise the way of achieving success by hard work.Finally, if the young people fail in these shows, they will suffer a psychological unbalance。

In a word, entering for TV PK shows is not a good way for young people to make a success.I suggest young people should think twice before deciding to attend PK shows。

College Students’Job Hunting

Nowadays, the employment of college students is becoming more and more of a problem.About a decade ago, university students could find satisfactory and enviable jobs after graduation, while the things are quite difficult at present.In addition, according to statistics, about 30% of graduate students can’t find a job but stay at home after graduation。

Employment difficulty of college students is due to the following reasons.Among these, the increasing recruitment of colleges and universities plays a vital role.In addition, many colleges and universities fail to adapt their courses to the development of economy。

Considering the seriousness of unemployment of college students, I think it is high time that we took effective measures to solve the problem.Above all, college students should realize their own defects and further improve themselves to keep their competitive edge in society.Moreover, colleges or universities should provide more trainings and internship opportunities before the students enter the society.Besides, college students should hold a right attitude towards jobs and set their job expectations at a suitable level.Only through these ways can the college students find a satisfactory job and have a brighter future。

Recently, self-employment has become a popular idea among youngsters, college graduates in particular.Owing to favorable policies, a large number of graduates launch their own business as the starting line of career.Furthermore, some successful examples have already been reported in the newspapers and Internet.Admittedly, there are several advantages for graduates to become self-employed.Firstly, the current intense competition for jobs can be eased to a large extent.Besides, it is apparent that young people can broaden their horizon in this process.Even if unsuccessful, they can learn from their failure and enrich their experience.Lastly, the hardship in self-employment enables graduates to be more diligent, which will be of tremendous benefits to their career in the society.As modern college students, not only should we get a good command of professional knowledge, but also make a clear and reasonable plan for our future career.Personally, I intend to establish my own business after graduation.I am convinced that being self-employed can contribute a lot to my personal development.(170 words)

Online open courses are gaining popularity in recent years.Follwoing globally famous universities like Yale and Harvard, some universities in China have also started to offer online open courses.Those courses have attracted people from all classes with different occupations.The courses have brought many benefits to people.Many of the courses are provided by universities in foreign countries, and thus offer fresh ideas to us.Through them, we can keep up with what people are thinking all over the world.But that can also be a problem.Some of the courses may not be very suitable for Chinese students because of cultural differences and may cause chaos on Chinese campus.In my opinion, online open course is useful and we should make use of it to broaden our horizons.But we should also remember to have our own thinking and not be brainwashed by improper ideas.题目：On Blind-date Show

Nowadays, the blind-date shows are becoming more and more popular.Whenever we turn on TV, those incredible senses of blind-date shows would pop up on the screen.Many people, from teenagers to the elderly, are so crazy about these shows that they never miss a single chance to watch them.Three reasons would contribute to the popularity of these blind-date shows.To begin with, there are over 180 million people who remain single long after they have reached the official age for marriage.Moreover, a great number of people would like to amuse themselves by watching other people dating.Last but not least,more and more television producers add a couple of attractive elements to cater for the different tastes of the audience.In my view, the government should impose restrictions to these blind-date shows.Many of these shows advocate money-warship and materialism;quite a few of the guests’ identities are artificial.If these problems are not solved, the misleading effects can be disastrous.题目：Self-help Traveling

Self-help traveling enjoys great popularity among college students today.The reason may be that they can save a lot of money by arranging the routes, booking cheaper hotels and deciding cheaper transportation tools all by themselves.Convenient and economical as self-help traveling sounds, they still have some potential problems.Perhaps the most important one is the safety problem.Being alone without a group or a tour guide, a traveler may be helpless in face of danger, i.e.robbery, wild animal attacks, etc.In addition, they are more likely to be at risk of getting lost when traveling alone in a city strange to them or in the remote countryside.In my view, self-help traveling can be exciting and challenging and is worth trying.However, before setting out alone, travelers should make good preparations.Besides, they should bear safety and security in mind all the time and keep in touch with their friends or relatives.Thus, they can enjoy both safety and pleasure of exploring different places.题目：On Adversity

范文：

Everyone meets setbacks and frustrations in life,and each tries hard to avoid them, only to find that they are just like your own shadow accompanying you all your life.When confronted with adversity, different people make different response.Some people consider it a stumbling block on the road to success,and get depressed or even sink into despair, others consider it the stairway to great accomplishments and try to overcome it with constant struggle.The latter, therefore, will recognize their disadvantages from their temporary defeat,draw lessons from it,and grow stronger each time they have coped with a difficulty.In my opinion, adversity often leads to prosperity.Painful and depressing as it is, overcoming adversity endows us with great confidence that is crucial to success.Great people are not born successful, they are great only because they have tempered their personality and remedied their deficiencies through experiencing countless adversities and defeats，which is actually a goddess of blessing in disguise.Traveling Abroad

In recent years, more and more citizens are traveling abroad.In 1995, the number of people who choose to travel abroad was about 10000.The number quadrupled to nearly 40000 in 2000.And in 2005, the number further climbed above 12000.There are several reasons for the shocking rise.To begin with, the improvement of the life standards makes traveling abroad affordable to more and more people.Moreover, the convenient transportation facilities make more destinations accessible.The last but not the least, after visiting most famous scenic spots throughout our country, exotic cultures seem to appeal more to many citizens.And gradually, they begin to treat traveling abroad as a new fashion.This trend is beneficial for people on the whole.On one hand, it is a very interesting and romantic way to spend one's vacation.On the other hand, it enlarges people's vision by having a look at what is going on in a different country.话题：树立目标

The Importance of Goal

There is no denying that setting a goal is very important.We find that successful people are always those having and achieving their goals.They set goals, short-term or long-run, to help realize their visions.Why is goal-setting important? By setting goals you are taking control of the tempo of your life.It is having a map to guide you to where you want to head for.With a clear direction, and with certain plans, you will straightly get what you want.On the contrary, without a goal ,you will live a wandering life.You do not know where to go, what you want and why you are listless.Then your life becomes dull and meaningles just like the dead water in a muddy lake.From my point of view, goals are not difficult to set and realize.First, you should make clear what you really want, which constitutes your goals.Then you make detailed palans and follow the through, as many wi话题：How to Enhance

the Sense of Happiness

范文：

The sense of happiness is of great significance.As a vital factor of life, it brings us power, arouses our enthusiasm for loving life, and helps us to create a promising future.However, in contemporary China, it has become a trend for Chinese people to hold different views about happiness and the way to enhance it.In addition to material basis, the sense of happiness also refers to several others aspects.Firstly, based on a recent survey, a majority of individuals admit that they are no longer content with being fed and clothed adequately, and their happiness depends more on their success in careers, friendship and love.Secondly, a great many people claim that health is the key to their sense of happiness.It is health that enables them to build up a solid foundation for anything significant.As a college student, I am convinced that never can money equal happiness.To enhance our sense of happiness, we should educate, advocate and encourage our friends and classmates to enrich their knowledge, broaden their horizon and cultivate their ability.1.当今社会，社交网站很流行 2.各人对此看法不同 3.我的看法

Social Network Sites

In recent years, social network sites like Renren and Kaixin have rapidly gained popularity among all kinds of people.Many people spend a lot of time on those sites chatting, making friends and playing games.Those sites have become a part of their life.The public hold different views on this phenomenon.Some are in favor of those sites for they provide many opportunities to know other people and to know what’s happening in the world.Besides, they’re very convenient to access.One can use a computer or cell phone to log on at home, in a restaurant, or even in the subway.But some people don’t approve of the social network sites.They say that people are wasting too much time on the sites.Some even get addicted to them and abandon their real life.After all, they don’t live in the virtual world.In my opinion, the social network sites can be very helpful when we want to keep in touch with friends, but we must remember that the real world is the most important in our life.1.有人相信知识能改变命运2.有人则认为当今社会光靠知识已经很难改变命运3.我认为„„

Can Knowledge Change One’s Destiny?

【参考范文一】

Can Knowledge Change One’s Destiny?

Some people have always believed that knowledge can change their destiny.Most of them are those from undeveloped areas, and by knowledge they usually mean diploma.They believe that if they send the kids in the family to college and that the kids get a diploma, they can change the kids’ destiny from doing farm work to enjoy a modern and advanced life in the city.However, some hold a different view.They say that in today’s society, knowledge alone is not enough to change destiny.To succeed in this complicated age, one needs not only knowledge, but also good communicating skills and a wide horizon, which cannot be easily learned in class.Knowledge itself is also more complicated than before.With technologies constantly advancing, one needs good learning ability to keep up with the time.In my opinion, knowledge is essential, but it is not everything.To change the destiny, one needs to keep learning various skills, to widen his horizons, and to keep pace with the latest trend.

1.The Importance of Asking Questions

Nowadays, it is common to see that people are active in showing their understanding of things.But when it comes to something that they are not familiar with, seldom do they reveal the ignorance.In fact, they are just afraid of looking like fools.As far as I am concerned, coming up with a question is not necessarily a negative sign.To begin with, people don't have a question when they don't study at all, which means they are not thinking and just letting the days slip by.Another case is that people are actually pondering over some questions that they cannot find answers on their own.However, they choose to keep these questions in the dark for fear that someone else might know their weak points.In this way, they lose the motivation to think about and put forward questions day by day.In brief, there is no need to hold back from asking questions.Just as the saying goes, “He who asks is a fool for five minutes, but he who does not ask remains a fool forever.”

2.Is Becoming Rich the Only Goal of Life?

As the saying goes, “Money makes the mare go.” Living in the contemporary society, more and more people are becoming money-oriented whether voluntarily or reluctantly.Sometimes, they should be reminded that becoming rich is not the only purpose of life.If one spends all his life pursuing nothing but money, he might live in a big house and drive a luxury car when he gets old.However, a person's material need is within limits.One cannot live in two houses and drive two cars at the same time.Neither should one take in two persons' amount of food.Besides, people's desire and ambition to make money could be infinite.More of money doesn't always make us happier.More of Money tends to make us used to that money and desirous of having even more of that.Therefore, we should look around and find other goals of life.For example, one can a meaningful life by discovering his gift and making the best of it.One can also live a happy life by making more friends and building a joyful family.3.How to Enhance Our Sense of Happiness?

Along with the improvement of living standards, people are no longer content with being fed and clothed adequately.They are more concerned about how to enhance their sense of happiness.To a large extent, happiness depends on individuals‟ understanding about it.For some people, happiness relies on material basis, without which they can't live comfortably and decently.For others, they believe that happiness has nothing to do with money.Thus to enhance happiness is not equal to improving one‟s material living standards.Instead, people are supposed to confront their life with right attitude, to be active and grateful in order to have a happy life.For my part, money does buy happiness, but only up to the point where it enables one to live comfortably.To boost one‟s happiness not only needs the material but also the spiritual enrichment.It encompasses living a meaningful life, utilizing your gifts and your time, living with reflection and objective.4.In recent years, more and more college students quit school ahead of schedule.Except the minority quitting for objective reasons like health problem,most students leave with the pursuit of an ideal career, as well as more experience and fortune.Several factors may contribute to its emergence.In the first place, some students think that the opportunity cost of spending four years on college campus is too high,and the job market competition is getting fiercer.Therefore, when there‟s a satisfying job available, it‟s worth quitting.In the second place, some hold that the real world is a better school for them to get practical knowledge than traditional schools.Last but not least, the publicizing and popularity of some successful businessmen like Bill Gates and Steve Jobs,who didn‟t finish school but ended up with a great fortune and achievement, set examples for the young generation emphasizing individuality and personality.However, I don‟t think it‟s rational for college students to quit school.Armed with high education and more mature personality, better-prepared graduates can fight for their future more easily.In a word, college education pays off.5.How to Be Successful in a Job Interview

To be successful in a job interview or in almost any interview situation, the applicants hould demonstrate certain personal and professional qualities.Most likely, the first and often a lasting impression of a person is determined by the clothes he wears.The job applicant should take care to appear well-groomed and modestly dressed, avoiding the extremes of too pompous or too casual attire.Besides care for personal appearance, he should pay close attention to his manner of speaking, which should be neither ostentatious nor familiar but rather straight forward, grammatically accurate, and in a friendly way.In addition, he should be prepared to talk knowledgeably about the requirements of the position, for which he is applying in relation to his own professional experience and interests.And finally, the really impressive applicant must convey a sense of self-confidence and enthusiasm for work, as these are factors all interviewers value highly.If the job seeker displays the above-mentioned characteristics, he, with a little luck, will certainly succeed in the typical personnel interview.6.The Impact of the Cellphone on Interpersonal Communication The picture depicts a couple dating in the park.While the man just focuses on his cellphones, and doesn‟t pay any attention to his partner or the nature beauty in the park.This picture reflects a common phenomenon in today‟s society: people spend too much time with their cellphones and communicate less and less with the people around them.Nowadays, the smart-cellphones become more and more important in our daily life.They have made our life more convenient.We are timely aware of the most latest news around or faraway from us.However, everything has two sides.Except for all the advantages, the smart-cellphones also have brought some problems.First, when you‟re focus on the cellphone, you may ignore the beautiful scene around you.What‟s worse, you are just absorbed in your own small world, rather than share your happiness and sorrows with the family.You hardly talk with your family and the ones around you.You become indifferent to them.All in all, let‟s put down the cellphones and spend more time communicating with our family and friends face to face directly.7.Spend Our Leisure to the Best Advantage

Most of us are inclined to feel that it is difficult to spend our leisure properly.When we have holidays, we usually feel bored and do not know what to do.Many people just sit in a sofa watching TV, while many other people stay in bed to venture their dreamland.Actually, having this feeling is quite natural since, in our daily life, we do things more or less in accordance with an unwritten daily routine in our mind.For instance, a student goes to school in the morning, takes lunch at noon, goes home in the evening and does homework at night;while a clerk gets to the office in the morning, takes tea in the afternoon, goes back home in the evening and reads newspaper at night.Gradually and accordingly we get used to the routine in our mind.And once we have holidays, we need not carry out this routine.So we are at a complete loss.How to spend our leisure? Here are some helpful suggestions but the subject matter is to have recreation!If you are an active person, you can go on a picnic, or play some sports games.The fresh air and the fascinating scenery in the countryside may refresh you and the amusing games may make you happier.For those who are not so active and like to stay at home, they may listen to light music or read novels.Indoor games such as chess, cards, table tennis and hobbies such as gardening and keeping pets are also enjoyable.In this way, we will feel relaxed, happier and more energetic.When holidays a re over and we begin to work again, we can do much better with a light heart.8.No one would argue, I think, that money is unimportant.There are certain things that human beings need — food, shelter, medical care and these things cost money.But if one has enough money to live on, to pay for the basic essentials of life, is it important to have a lot more money than that? Will your life improve in proportion to the amount of money that you have? Well, there is no denying that money can buy a lot.Maybe you do not need much money to pay for a simple shelter, but how about if you want a nice big apartment in a nice neighbourhood, or if you want to buy a house? In fact, people do get on each other's nerves if they are crowded together in a small kitchen, if a married couple cannot but share a room with their parents, if children are not allowed to have a little privacy of their own.Moreover, it is nice to get a little pleasure out of life, a little fun from time to time.Unfortunately, many of the fun things that you can do today cost money.In modern cities, for example, on any night, outstanding performers appear in night clubs and on concert stages.Furthermore, you can dine on foods from every corner of the world in the restaurants.So how can it be that many people in modern cities do not have fun? Simple, they do not have the money to take advantage of all these attractions.So, is money the road to happiness? Not really.Large numbers of people work every day, work overtime, work weekends, and make a lot of money.Are they happy? No.They have no time to form or maintain friendship, no time to enjoy themselves.Surely everyone has thought at times, “If only I had a lot of money, I would be the happiest person in the world.” But it is important to remember that money is only a means to an end, not the end itself.9.Overseas Study

The discussion about overseas study has never stopped in the past few years.Let„s have a look at its advantages and disadvantages before drawing the final conclusion.The biggest advantage of studying overseas is the higher academic level and advanced research facilities.What‟s more, by understanding a new culture and meeting different people, students can develop a more reasonable and balanced view towards the world.Last but not least, the experience will be invaluable to character building, which makes most students more independent, diligent and enterprising.However, the negative effects are also obvious.To begin with, if a person does not make full preparations before going abroad, he will have great difficulty adapting to the new environment.In the second place, the cultural differences will hinder the regular life in many ways.Finally, money is always a big problem.Many students have to find part-time jobs to earn money to pay tuition and fees.In conclusion, the advantages of overseas study outweigh disadvantages.Once they return home, the overseas students will make great contributions to our motherland.10.University Students‟ Pursuit of Famous Brands

“What perfumes are you wearing?” “Aren‟t your shoes Nike‟s latest release?” “I like the Mickey bag you bought yesterday.” “I hear the Jack & Jones store is on sale this week.Do you wanna come along?” Don‟t feel surprised if you hear them coming out of the mouth of college students.It‟s quite common to hear and see college students swapping information about the brands they like and the products they use.In fact, discussions about brand names have become one of the college students‟ favourite pastimes.They learn about the latest fashion from each other, exchange tips about when and where to get the item, and buy it at their earliest convenience.“Keeping up with the Joneses” is their conviction —“If the Joneses have it, how could I have not?” About this current mindset of the college students, many people may hasten to show their disapproval.They‟ll probably take it to be a reflection of the students‟ vanity and superficiality.And they may lecture them on the virtue of being thrifty.However, I beg to differ.For one thing, name-brand products are usually quality products.They are something beautiful, endurable, and reliable.“The love of beauty is common to all,” goes the proverb;therefore, there‟s nothing to blame about the pursuit of famous brands.For the other, college students are old enough to make their own decisions.Likewise, they must abide by the consequences if they make an ill-advised one.If they let their pursuit of brands eat into their budget for other more important issues,they should be able to correct their mistakes and keep everything in moderation.So this becomes no other than a good chance to learn management, isn‟t it?

11.Many people try hard to avoid failure because they tempt to think that failure is bad and a person without success is failure and failure means underdog.But the truth is, everyone meets failure in life, and only find that it is just like your own shadow accompanying you all your lives.However, hold a different view, failure is not a bad thing.Great people are not born successful, they are great only because they have tempered their personality and remedied their deficiencies through experiencing countless failures and defeats.Failure inspires people to overcome hardships and difficulties and achieve the final success.Indeed, we cannot always hope to embrace success if we accept failure.But if we harness it and take it as our source of inspiration, we may ultimately enjoy the glory of success

Through some people consider failure a stumbling block on the road to success, but I see it as stairway to great accomplishments.I will recognize disadvantages from my temporary defeat, draw lessons from it, and grow stronger each time I cope with a difficulty.Failure is not a bad thing, seriously.
