专转本英语作文模板原因解决方法类
专转本，有两个拉分最厉害的部分，一是阅读题，一是作文题。，跟汉语作文的“起承转合”类似，英语作文其实也有固定模式，如认真拜读一遍之后，不由得大吃二惊。第一惊的是：我们中国真是高手如林，多么复杂、困难的问题，都能够迎刃而解，实在佩服之极。第二惊的是：“八股文”这朵中国传统文化的奇葩，在凋谢了一百多年之后，竟然又在中华大地上重新含苞怒放，真是可喜可贺。 感慨之后，转入正题。这五个模板，在结构上大同小异，掌握一种即可，所以我从中挑选了一个最简单、最实用的，稍加修改，给各位介绍一下。这个模板的中文大意是：在某种场合，发生某种现象，并提供一些相关数据，然后列出这种现象的三个原因，并将三个原因总结为一个最主要原因，最后提出避免这种现象的两个办法。总的来说，利用这个模板写英语作文，是相当容易的，您只要将适当的内容，填写到对应的方括号中，一篇通顺的英语作文即可完成。下面就是这个模板。 Nowadays, there are more and more [某种现象] in [某种场合]. It is estimated that [相关数据]. Why have there been so many [某种现象]? Maybe the reasons can be listed as follows. The first one is [原因一]. Besides, [原因二]. The third one is [原因三].

And for another example,money can't buy us good health and a long life. But we can not live without money. We need it for our daily necessities such as food,clothes and transportation. What's more,we need it to live a better life. In short,we should learn the value of money and make the most of its advantages. 2、一些人喜欢住在城市，因为城市生活有许多便利。 Where to live —in the City or in the Country Some people like living in the city because city life has many advantages. They think there are more job opportunities in cities,life there is more colorful and meaningful than that in the country,and there are more modern conveniences in cities for people to enjoy. But some other people prefer to live in the countryside. They say life in the countryside is closer to nature and better for their health,life there is quieter and that country people are more honest than city people. I would like to live in a city when I am young to earn enough money and I live in the countryside when I am old for having a quite life. 3、你叫平，是英语系学生会主席。写一封信给王教授，请他做一个有关中国历史的报告。 注意信中要包括目的、时间、日期和地点。Ⅴ.Writing May 19,2002 Dear Professor Wang： On behalf of the Student Union of the English Department,I am writing to invite you to give a lecture on Chinese history.

Other people believe that women have the ability to compete with men. There have been many famous women state leaders and great scientists in the wor ld. We should fully carry out the principle “to each according to his work” so that the enthusiasm of both men and women for work can be fully aroused. 5、在中国，自行车是最为流行的交通工具。 The Bicycle in China The bicycle is the most popular means of transportation in China. China is a country “on bicycle wheels”.People ride them for various purposes such as going to and from school and work. Bicycles are very cheap and easy to buy in China. There are many advantages to riding a bicycle. First,using a bicycle can greatly help reduce the air pollution in many big cities. Second,people can improve their health by riding a bicycle.

英语写作(一) 期末考试试题及参考答案
英语写作试题（一） I. Supply the missing paragraph (20 points) The following passage is incomplete with one body paragraph missing. Study the passage carefully and write the missing paragraph in about 100 words. Make sure that your tone and diction are in unity with the passage provided. Attaining Success in College Succeeding in college is not only important to getting and education, but also crucial in this day and age to success in the work place. To me, the three most important things for attaining a successful college experience are having smart classroom conduct, taking advantage of campus resources, and making college the first priority. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ Making good use of campus resources is also of great importance to college success. The school library has many resources for the growth of the students’ mind. With computers and copy-machines for individual use, computer labs and writing labs are there not just for learning purposes but also for actual help with writing papers. The “office hours” will help the students build a close relationship with their professors and give them access to the professors’ mind. From the professors the students can acquire possible extra information that may put them ahead of their study. All these resources are free, since they are funded by student tuitions. So taking good advantage of the resources can only make the students’ education more attainable. Finally, any students who want to assure success must establish school as the top priority. Personally I have watched some students slowly loosen up; I have seen a pattern of partying and a lack of motivation. Many of the freshmen have no idea why they are in college, and their “eyes” often tell it all. This world is so rich in distractions that it is hard to keep a strong focus, especially if one is just starting his or her academic career. It is said that the first semester is often the most “unsuccessful” one. This certainly rings true for me. I made mistakes in this regard and eventually learned that, to achieve success, school must always be placed above other things. In my college experience, I have observed and learned how to achieve success. I wish someone had told me earlier the importance of having that smart classroom conduct, of fully utilizing the school resources, and of making college my top priority. Then, my college beginnings would not have been so rocky and tough. II. Write an outline (20 points) Read the following passage carefully and compose a “topic outline” for it. Smell Smell, as a means of nonverbal communication, is important. Odor communicates not only when we are face to face with another person, but also when the other personis not present. People from different cultures may have different attitudes toward body odors. Most people in the West respond negatively to what they consider bad odors such as body odor, breath odor, or
