Should private car owners be taxed for pollution?私家车主是否应交污染税?
With the development of society, many people can afford a car.As the number of the cars is rising, we are facing some problems.One big problem is the pollution caused by the use of cars.In order to solve this problem, government agencies in some big cities recently suggest that a “pollution tax” should be put on private cars in order to control the number of cars and reduce pollution in the city.For my part, I agree to this viewpoint, and my reasons are as follows:
To begin with, cars contribute to the environmental pollution.For example, a lot of big cities in China are now plagued by serious air pollution.Then it is the responsibility of these private car owners to pay for the pollution and they should be taxed.The purpose of collecting environmental pollution tax is to raise the fund, and then utilize the tax revenue lever to protect our environment.Secondly, it is a good way to raise people’s environmental awareness by putting a pollution tax on private cars.If people suffer from the financial loss when making a decision, they will think more about their decision.Then they will consider more when deciding to buy a private car.Consequently, the increase rate of the number of the private cars can be controlled.In a word, it is a very good and necessary attempt to use the means of taxation to treat the pollution.Of course, it must be kept in mind that all people, including the private car owners, should try their best to protect the environment.该文章转载自无忧考网:http://

1In the past thirty years many social changes have taken place in Britain.The greatest of these have probably been in the economic lives of women.2The changes have been significant, but, because tradition and prejudice can still handicap women in their working careers and personal lives, major legislation to help promote equality of opportunity and pay was passed during the 1970s.3At the heart of women's changed role in society has been the rise in the number of women at work, particularly married women.As technology and society permit highly effective and generally acceptable methods of family planning there has been a decline in family size.Women as a result are involved in child-rearing for a much shorter time and related to this, there has been a rapid increase in the number of women with young children who return to work when the children are old enough not to need constant care and attention.4Since 1951 the proportion of married women who work has grown from just over a fifth to a half.Compared with their counterparts elsewhere on the Continent, British women comprise a relatively high proportion of the work-force, about two-fifths, but on average they work fewer hours, about 31 a week.There is still a significant difference between women's average earnings and men's, but the equal pay legislation which came into force at the end of 1975 appears to have helped to narrow the gap between women's and men's basic rates.5As more and more women joined the work-force in the 1960s and early 1970s there was an increase in the collective incomes of women as a whole and a major change in the economic role of large numbers of housewives.Families have come to rely on married women's earnings as an essential part of their income, rather than as “pocket money”.At the same time social roals within the family are more likely to be shared, exchanged or altered.66.The general idea of the passage is about
A.social trends in contemporary Britain.B.changes in women's economic status.C.equal opportunity and pay in Britain.D.women's roles within the family.67.According to the author, an increasing number of married women are able to work because
A.their children no longer require their care.B.there are more jobs available nowadays.C.technology has enabled them to find acceptable jobs.D.they spend far less time on child care than before.TEXT B
Nature' s Gigantic Snowplough
1On January 10, 1962, an enormous piece of glacier broke away and tumbled down the side of a mountain in Peru.A mere seven minutes later, when cascading ice finally came to a stop ten miles down the mountain, it had taken the lives of 4,000 people.2it is extremely cold at very high altitudes, snow rarely
melts.It just keeps piling up higher and higher.Glaciers are eventually created when the weight of the snow is so great that the lower layers are pressed into solid ice.But most avalanches occur long before this happens.As snow accumulates on a steep slope, it reaches a critical point at which the slightest vibration will send it sliding into the valley below.3Even an avalanche of light power can be dangerous, but the Peruvian catastrophe was particularly terrible because it was caused by a heavy layer of ice.It is estimated that the ice that broke off weighed three million tons.As it crashed down the steep mountainside like a gigantic snowplough, it swept up trees, boulders and tons of topsoil, and completely crushed and destroyed the six villages that lay in its path.4At present there is no way to predict or avoid such enormous avalanches, but, luckily, they are very rare.Scientists are constantly studying the smaller, more common avalanches, to try to understand what causes them.In the future, perhaps dangerous masses of snow and ice can be found and removed before they take human lives.68.The first paragraph catches the reader's attention with a
A.first-hand report.B.dramatic description.C.tall tale.D.vivid word picture.A.violently ruinous.B.spectacularly interesting.C.stunning.D.unpleasant.70.The passage is mostly about
A.avalanches.B.glaciers.C.Peru.D.mountains.C
I was born in Tuckahoe, Talbot Country, Maryland.I have no accurate knowledge of my age, never having seen any authentic record containing it.By far the larger part of the slaves know as little of their age as horses know of theirs, and it is the wish of most masters within my knowledge to keep their slaves thus ignorant.I do not remember having ever met a slave who could tell of his birthday.They seldom come nearer to it than planting-time, harvesting, springtime, or falltime.A lack of information concerning my own was a source of unhappiness to me even during childhood.The white children could tell their ages, I could not tell why I ought to be deprived of the same privilege.I was not allowed to make any inquiries of my master concerning it.He considered all such inquiries on the part of a slave improper and impertinent.The nearest estimate I can give makes me now between twenty-seven and twenty-eight years of age.I come to this, from hearing my master say, some time during 1835, I was about seventeen years old.2My mother was named Harriet Bailey.She was the daughter of Issac and Betsey Bailey, both coloured, and quite dark.My mother was of a darker complexion than either my grandmother or grandfather.3My father was a white man.He was admitted to be such by all I ever heard speak of my parentage.The opinion was also whispered that my master was my father;but of the correctness of this opinion, I know nothing;the means of knowing was withheld from me.My mother and I were separated when I was but an infant — before I knew her as my mother.It is a common custom, in the part of Maryland from which I ran away, to part children from their mothers at a very early age.Frequently, before the child has reached its twelfth month, its mother is taken from it, and hired out on some farm a considerable distance off, and the child is placed under the care of an older woman, too old for field labour.For what this separation is done, I do not know, unless it be to hinder the development of the child's affection towards its mother.71.The author did not know exactly when he was born because
A.he did not know who his mother was.B.there was no written evidence of it.C.his master did not tell his father.D.nobody on his farm knew anything about it.72.In the mid-nineteenth century, slaves often
A.marked their birthdays by the season.B.did not really care how old they were.C.forgot the exact time when they were born.D.pretended not to know each other's birthdays.73.The author's mother told him
A.his father was black.B.his father was white.C.nothing about his father.D.his master was his father.74.According to the passage, when the author was very young his mother
A.ran away.B.was light-skinned.C.had several children.D.was sent to work elsewhere.75.The author had not spent much time with his
A.mother.B.master.C.grandfather.D.grandmother.76.The author was most probably raised

Please Recycle That Bobsled Run(大学橇滑道)
1For the 1992 Winter Games, French organizers constructed a new motorway, parking lots and runs for skiing in the Alps.Environmentalists screamed “Disaster!'.Thus warned, the Norwegians have adopted ”green“ advice and avoided great blots on the landscape.The speed-skating rink was built to look like an overturned ship, and placed so as not to disturb a bird sanctuary.Dug into a mountainside, the hockey arena is well concealed and energy efficient.The bobsled run is built out of wood not metal and hidden among trees.No wonder the president of the International Olympic Committee has called these the first ”Green Games“.2Lillehammer's opening ceremonies featured a giant Olympic Torch burning biogas produced by rotting vegetation.During construction, builders were threatened with $7,500 fines for felling trees unnecessarily.Rare trees were carefully transplanted from hillsides.Food is being served on potato-based plates that will be fed, in turn, to pigs.Smoking has been banned outdoors as well as in, with enforcement by polite requests.3Environmentalists have declared partial victory, though Coca-Cola's plan to decorate the town with banners has been scaled back, there are still too many billboards for strict green tastes.Perhaps, but after the Games, athlete housing will be converted into vacation homes or shipped to the northlands for student dormitories.Bullets will be plucked from biathlon targets and recycled to keep the lead from poisoning ground water.And these tricks won't be forgotten.Embarrassed by environmental protests, the I.O.C.claims that green awareness is now entrenched — along with sport and culture — as a permanent dimension of the Olympic Charter.4Indeed, Sydney was successful in becoming host for the 2000 Summer Games in part on the strength of its endorsement from Greenpeace.Aspiring host cities are picking up the code.Salt Lake City, bidding for the 2002 Games, may opt to use the bobsled run that Calgary built for the '88 Games.after that, who could deny that recycling is an Olympic movement?
77.Which of the following countries has not paid enough attention to the ”green" issues?
A.Norway.B.France.C.America.D.Australia.78.In which area did the environmentalists fail in Lillehammer?
A.Energy.B.Smoking.C.Housing.D.Advertising.79.Which of the following describes the I.O.C.'s attitude towards the environmentalists' protests?
A.Trying to commit themselves.B.Showing indifference and contempt.C.Arguing for practical difficulties.D.Negotiating for gradual changes.80.The 2002 Games might be held in
A.Oslo.B.Calgary.C.Sydney.D.Salt Lake City.

第四篇:英语四级作文真题
Part Ⅰ Writing
审题谋篇
本次四级作文主题为“绿色校园”,这是一个看似简单普通的话题,写起来却不是那么容易。因为很多考生对于“绿色校园”所表达的内涵感觉比较生僻。假如对“绿色校园”这一主题感到难以把握,考生可以从作文提纲入手进行分析以获取对“绿色校园”这一概念的相关信息。根据作文提示2,可以看出此处的“绿色校园”指的决不仅仅是青青的草地和高大的树木构成的校园绿色风景,也不仅仅指对校园环境的珍视和爱护,而是指一种环境保护的文化氛围和师生具有的环境素养,以及由此带来的和谐的人文环境和社会绩效。在深入理解概念的基础上,考生还应对 “绿色校园”的重要性进行剖析,这时,考生可以从多个角度组织素材,比如从校园的环境问题出发,进而扩展到师生的环境意识对“绿色校园”所产生的长远意义以及为未来环境改善所做的贡献。最后是阐述建设“绿色校园”所要采取的措施。需要注意的就是作文给分的重点在于考生如何用恰当的语言词汇表达自己的思想观点。而不是写得越多,得分就越高。一般分成三个自然段,大概十句话,基本的分布为首段、末段合起来五句或六句,中间段五句或四句,做到结构清楚,重点突出,就可以了。参考范文
Creating a Green Campus
Recently, with the idea of making and maintaining “a green earth” being the focus of the society, “green campus” has become a more and more popular concept in universities or colleges, which, undoubtedly, will bring us an ever-lasting benefit to both our campus and our society.The concept of “green campus” does not only mean a green environment but also refers to an environmental sense in people’s mind.Campus plays a crucial role in educating the young generation and the consciousness of “green campus” will definitely produce a profound effect on students’ various environmental protection activities after their graduation.What’s more, the young generation is under the burden of severe environmental pollution and there are many problems waiting for them to solve.To make “green campus” come true, firstly, it is necessary to work out effective principles for the development of sustainable and recyclable campus.Secondly, it calls for people’s awareness of the serious pollution around us and actual action to reduce the waste.Last but not least, it is necessary to strengthen the ties between campus and society, so as to ensure that “green campus” can work smoothly with the co-effort of the whole society.建设绿色校园
近来,随着建设并保持“绿色地球”的观念成为社会关注的焦点,“绿色校园”也成为校园里流行的话题。这无疑会给我们的校园和社会带来长远的利益。
“绿色校园”不仅仅指绿色的环境,还包括人们头脑中的环境意识。学校在培养年轻一代上起着关键作用,“绿色校园”的意识必定会对学生毕业后的环境保护意识产生长远影响。更为重要的是,年轻一代面临着严重的环境污染,有太多问题等待他们去解决。
为使“绿色校园”成为现实,首先应该制定出可持续发展、可长远发展的有效政策。其次,还需要人们对环境污染的严肃性有正确认识并采取实际行动切实减少污染。最后但同样重要的是,有必要加强学校和社会的联系以便在全社会共同努力下使“绿色校园”顺利实施。范文点评
范文以“绿色校园”开篇,保证了文章切题。第一段开门见山,强调当今环保理念下构建“绿色校园”的长远意义。第二段,着重讨论“绿色校园”的含义,指出“绿色校园”不仅指校园中的绿化,还指生活在校园中的人们的绿色和环保意识,把校园这个小环境和社会这个大环境结合起来,说理更加深刻。第三段是谈及具体的做法,分一、二、三点进行论述,无疑是使“绿色校园”的理念落在实处。结构完整,首尾呼应,用词准确。关系词的正确使用让句与句之间、段与段之间衔接紧凑,思想表达成熟有深度。
【生动的用词】 maintain保持;concept概念;profound长远的;sustainable可持续的;recyclable可循环的。
【丰富的短语】bring benefit to带来利益;play a crucial role in发挥关键作用;under the burden of在„„重负下;come true实现;call for要求。
【多变的句式】
范文中长句、短句、简单句、复杂句交叉使用。不同句型之间的转换,能让阅卷老师更好地了解考生对句子结构的掌握运用,从而获得高分。
避错指导
本次作文在题材上,虽然仍然延续了我们所熟悉校园类话题,但与社会背景有很大关系。刚刚闭幕的哥本哈根世界气候大会使环保减排这个主题成为焦点,在全世界都提倡可持续发展、和谐发展这一背景下的“绿色校园”,同时也是一个社会热点话题,这是我们审题时所必须考虑的。另外开篇时,切忌拖泥带水,应直截了当,使阅卷老师对文章主题一目了然。除正确审题之外,考生还应注意语言的准确运用,不落俗套。不同句型之间转换时,考生应对句子结构全面掌握,避免句式错误造成扣分。
最后,应尽量避免单词拼写错误。本次作文常见的卷面拼写错误如下表:
正确拼写 词性及词义 错误的拼写
focus n.焦点 focuse
effect n.影响 effection /affect
environment n.环境 envirment/invironment
burden n.负担 burdon solve v.解决 slove serious a.严肃的 serous true a.真的 ture
society n.社会 soceity
theory n.理论 thery
总之,考生在构思和写作过程中要尽可能做到思路完整,恰如其分地选择词汇。毕竟,无错表达才是四级语言表达合格的核心。

2.娱乐活动可能使人们受益,也可能有危害性 3.作为大学生我的看法
College students are enjoying various kinds of recreational activities which involve the following ones: hanging out with friends in parties and clubs, watching films, etc.Those activities bring about benefits as well as disadvantages.Participating in such leisure activities, on the one hand, provides them with great benefits.To begin with, it helps to enhance the communication between undergraduates who are often busy themselves in their homework and researches.It invigorates their off-class lives.Moreover, it will lesson their anxiety and pressure and give them fresh feeling, thus enabling them engage in their works by heart and soul.On the other hand, it does harm to them.Firstly, it distracts students from their studies.To some extent, they can’t find a good balance between the entertainment and study.As a university student, I will spare no efforts to strike a balance between recreation and study.Only in this way can we develop ourselves in an all-around way.2008年1月
What Electives to Choose 1.各大学开设了各种各样的选修课
2.学生因为各种原因选择了不同的选修课 3.以你自己为例······
We all know that elective course can make a free space for everyone to show their strong points, develop their imaginations, creations and personal styles.Every term our school would offer a range of elective courses which you can choose according to your own areas of interest.I always read all course information and analysis which one is suitable for us study.This semester, I took an course about psychological health as my elective course.Nowadays, it is a common phenomenon that people go to have some psychological consultations, including students in school.I always face great pressure from study and life.Being depressed for a long time, I doubt if I am physically healthy.So I choose it as my eclective course of this term.During the course, my mental state improved greatly.First and foremost, I tried to build up a healthy lifestyle.Furthermore, I realized that we need to find different ways to relax ourselves when we face severe competition.Thirdly, we should be sympathetic.Thanks to the electives course.范文2
All the universities offer various electives for students to choose.They may make different choices due to different reasons.But as far as I am concerned, Fashion and Image Design course is worth studying for each individual.First, a good appearance may help us make a better impression in social contacts.The way we are dressed helps us to preserve a sense of our own value and personality.Second, Fashion adds spice to life with its rich color, variety, and beauty.The world will be a dull place to live in if we always wear clothes of the same style and color.And the third, also the most important, being well-dressed is of psychological importance.Because dress properly can enhance our self-confidence in appearance, which will lead to confidence in our success in life.That’s the reason why I choose this course.The confident people are the most charming people, I believe that Fashion and Image Design will give you an unusual life.范文3
Nowadays, there usually exists a wide selection of electives for college students to choose from.However, students have quite different plans for their future so they always end up learning courses based on their own ideas.Some students may choose to learn a certain course in order to obtain an extra certificate for their job hunting after graduation.Because they assume that some more knowledge could ensure more chances of winning in finding a good job.Others may have their choice made just for fun.They tend to hold the idea that college life could be more colorful if they could widen their knowledge through elective courses.As far as I’m concerned, I’m inclined to choose electives based on both the value of the courses and the interest of my own.范文4
Nowadays many college students prefer to have electives in their spare time because the courses can offer a variety of skills and abundant knowledge apart from what they learn in the daily courses.There are many factors that may account for it, and the following are the most conspicuous aspects.To start with, many students want to get another degree besides their own, so that they can have more competence when they seek a job.Furthermore, as for me, I don’t care about degree or job, I just want to obtain some necessary skills to make my college life worthwhile.What I’m concerned most is how to own more skills that may be necessary for my future.Finally, some students want to learn anything that is different from what they are learning now.The science students, for example, want to know about Shakespeare while the art students want to tell how a vehicle works and how to deal with it when it breaks down.So, they can all get what they think is useful to their college life.On the whole, the phenomenon is one of the results of multi-demand of the employment market.There is still a long way for us to improve the elective itself, but as a student myself, I find it rewarding and interesting

Spring Festival Gala on TV 1.许多人喜欢在除夕观看春节联欢晚会 2.有些人却提出取消春节联欢晚会 3.在我看来······
【参考范文】
Spring Festival Gala on CCTV
Since its very advent CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala has made every effort to present grand parties to its gigantic audience with a galaxy of stars and wonderful performances.It has become a custom for millions of Chinese people to sit through the variety show following the traditional family reunion feast.They simply cannot step into the new year without the gala which seems as indispensable to the New Year’s Eve celebration as firecrackers.With the passage of years however a growing number of people begin to view the gala as “ chicken rib” unappealing and worthless when people can feast themselves on other evening entertainment.Some even suggest throwing away the show which fails to give its increasingly demanding and diverse audience a convincing excuse to be rooted in the sofa and stay glued to the TV.To my eye the existence of the gala is still justifiable.For one thing with the variety show characteristic of Chinese tradition aired both home and abroad it provides the Chinese people especially those overseas with a good opportunity to establish their cultural identity on this unique evening.For another the gala a rare occasion of gathering of those performers is undoubtedly a treat for those in the remote or poverty-stricken areas.【参考范文】
The approach of the Chinese Lunar New Year poses a national issue concerning the necessity of holding the CCTV Spring Festival Gala.Its established status is being challenged by a growing number of people, especially by younger generations.It is increasingly difficult to cater for all tastes.Some individuals deem that it should be canceled or replaced by other programs.These young people focus their attention on other forms of celebration instead of immersing themselves in TV.Despite that, the majority of mid-aged people and senior citizens uphold the importance of the traditional performance.The most striking feature of this gala is its traditionally close link with ordinary people's lives.Most of people view this gala as an annual staple on the traditional Chinese Spring Festival Eve.They all have a restless night and glue their eyes on the television.I am not supportive of the view that the grand gala should be abandoned.Undoubtedly, it plays a vital role in the celebration of Chinese New Year.To increase its appeal and meet young adults' need, the upcoming performance should invite some big names including super stars from Hongkong and Taiwan.We are all eagerly anticipating this unforgettable evening show.2006年6月新题型
Our Students Selecting Their Lecturers 1. 有些大学允许学生自由选择某些课程的任课老师 2. 学生选择老师时所考虑的主要因素是······ 3. 学生自选任课老师的益处及可能产生的问题
Nowadays many universities entitle students to choose lecturers freely for some courses, which is welcomed by most students, and is becoming the focus of the students and lecturers concern.There are many factors which will influence students’ selecting lecturers.First of all, it is generally accepted that a lecturer’s professional knowledge and ability is the most important factor, since students choose his /her courses to learn knowledge.Moreover, quite a few students think teaching methods and skills are essential to a good lecturer.A lecturer must know how to teach.In addition, a lecturer’s sense of humor is also an important factor many students will consider.Undoubtedly, freely choosing of lecturers is very beneficial to both lecturers and students.On one hand it can provide a good chance for lecturers to prove and show their ability.On the other hand, in this way students can choose lecturers they like and obtain more initiative in learning.However, since it is a free choice, a small number of excellent lecturers will become the focus of most students, which will lead to an unreasonable class size and influence teaching effect seriously.2006年6月英语四级作文

[参考作文]Should the University Campus Be Open to Tourists?
[参看范文一]
One can always find visitors taking pictures and enjoying the scenery in university compus.During the May Day Holiday, National Day Holiday, summer and winter vacations, many University campuses become popular tourist sites.In my opinion, university campus should be open to tourists.In fact, there are many royal gardens and parks, all of them obviously better than the scenery in the Universities.Why do you think people prefer visiting here with their children? That is because it is a dream goal for many Chinese parents and young ambitious students.Besides this, as more tourists come to visit universities, these universities can widen their influence as well and they can also make some profit from the tourism.In a word, I think the university compus should be open to the tourists
[参看范文二]
In university campus, especially in some famous ones, such as Peking University and Qinghua University, tourists are always seen looking around everywhere.Although most of them visit with hope and respect, I think university campus should not be open to tourists.First, tourists' visit will disturb the normal teaching.They always get into teaching buildings, libraries and so on.They will make noise and throw rubbish everywhere.Second, some tourists trample grass to take photos, and sculpture on trees to leave words.These will affect the environment of the campus badly.The university is a holy place for study, not for tourism.So It should not be open.2005年6月18日英语四级作文及范文
