1.The gap between the rich and the poor is becoming wider. The rich is growing richer and the poor is growing poorer.

What are the causes of this problem?

What solutions can you propose to solve this problem?

Nowadays , the widening gap between the rich and the poor has become a thorny issue, people have been attaching greater importance to this social problem , for it may induce a host of consequences such as hatred toward the billionaire or even social riot .In this essay, I aim to explore this complicated phenomenon from diverse perspectives , and bring up some effective measures.

To my mind , the origins of the problem come as follows. To begin with ,the rich people are already blessed with superior education , better resources, some of them are born into the purple and can make use of their wealth accumulated by their ancestors to make wise investment, while the impoverished people have no advantage in starting their business , for huge fund problem has always been an impediment/barrier /hurdle on their way to take the first step.

Besides , it is always the rich people that are in the dominant positions in the society , thus they are more likely to make policies which are in favor of their interest . And the increase of fortune/wealth seems to be a privilege of their own.

Another factor we need to point out is that most of the rich people are always adventurous and willing to accept challenges and will try their best to achieve a goal despite constant failures . On the contrary , some poor people are always counting on luck and free lunch instead of striving hard for a change, therefore , their chances of making money will slip away every time they choose to avoid difficulties and bury themselves in complaint .

The situation cannot last too long and there must be some ways out. First ,governments are obliged to moderately redistribute social wealth by posing heavier taxes to the rich class and investing more in the warfare of the people living in poverty. In addition, the authorities concerned are supposed to enact favorable financial policies for those people who want to start a company , for example , low-interest loan.

To live in a common wealth society is the ultimate goal of mankind and we must cherish the hope that with the joint efforts from government and the poor people themselves , the gap between the rich and the poor will be eventually bridged.

2. Science tells us some activities are good for our health and there are some unhealthy activities. But millions of people still do those unhealthy activities. Why is it happening?

What can we do to change this situation?

staying up

eating junk food

going on a strict diet

increasing pressure from work and study leaves little time for bed time or for a decent meal.

lack of self control and time management skill.

work requirement

due to the wrong concept of beauty , many girls sacrifice health for a slim body.

Despite the fact that physicians warn us that certain activities may lead to cancer or other serious diseases , a large number of drinkers and smokers are still unwilling to drop their cups or throw the cigars away. In this essay, I aim to explore this complicated phenomenon from diverse perspectives , and bring up some effective measures

Why so are many people obsessed with such harmful activities ? Firstly , we can never deny the healing effect of cigarette or a glass of wine when we feel depressed , frustrated and lonely or simply need an inspiration .Secondly , lack of self-control and perseverance is the main cause of our constant failures in kicking out the bad habit .

When it comes to the addiction to the internet or TV watching ,( which brings physical damage as well , say ,obesity, failure of eyesight..), the disillusion of their dream should be responsible . Those poor people, by watching the surreal but happy TV dramas or communicating with their cyber friends , can find spiritual satisfaction and emotional relief.

The solutions , in my opinion , may come as follows. To begin with, wider promotion of the hazards of the relevant practices should be made by the media .Besides , the victims are encouraged to seek help from friends and family or communities which could provide professional advice and care. Another effective way is to divert attention to healthy sports , such as swimming or playing badminton ,which can also bring fun and relaxation.

We are dreaming to enjoy a healthy life , but we should be conscious of the harm under disguise .With our joint efforts, I firmly believe that the situation will change for the better.

3.The rise of living standard in a country often only benefits cities rather than rural areas.

What problems can be caused?

How to reduce these problems?

Many countryside people who want to seek superior life in the city will pose problems to the city first , such as surging urban population , traffic

problems , more fierce competitions in the job market

In addition , the villages will suffer from the negative impact of the population drain . (brain drain. )it is not unusual to find that many farms fall disused, for the strong young labor are in the city . Another fact we should notice is that many country factories will go bankrupt because of young labor shortage.

The gap between the city and the village will be widened in terms of food varieties , nutrition , transport convenience , entertainment means and housing condition . Thus, there might emerge some social conflicts ,for the rural residents/dwellers/inhabitants might show discontent with the social inequality

The absence of a large number of capable people , (who are usually the hardcore of the family , ) will make old people and children unattended , therefore , the problem of health and education of children is becoming increasingly serious.

First , the government should give priority to the infrastructure construction of the rural areas. More money should be invested in the development of roads , medical care and education . Besides , more job opportunities should be provided to the rural inhabitants/dwellers who need not seek jobs in the city . Last but the least, more talents can be retained in their home town if the government could provide rewards or incentives .

4. Mobile phones and the Internet play an important role in the way people relate to one another socially. Is this a positive or negative development? Advantages :

1. The production efficiency is greatly enhanced by the popularity of technology.

2 Technological inventions could bring great convenience to our daily lives and lift the standard of living.

disadvantages：

1.Along with the leisure enriched by the Internet, people tend to ignore / neglect the communications with family members and friends.

2.Along with the boost of efficiency ,the requirement of physical labor is decreasing, thereby many corporations have to downsize

3. In the era of technology, the fast life pace can increase the risk of ( cause) lifestyle diseases, such as obesity, stroke, heart disease and so on.

4. New technology may induce/trigger new pollution and moral/ethical conflicts.

范文

Now that you are benefitting from the use of the mobile phone and the Internet as social interaction media, could you imagine what your daily lives would be without these inventions? Living in this age of information technology may be a blessing, but there seems to be an undesirable feeling under disguise.

It has become incredibly easy to relate to one another electronically and share information instantly in the social context. Through digital networking, the cell phone and the Internet have updated the lives of the current generation . Gone are the days when people could only communicate via fixed telephone or writing letters which took several days to reach others. Apart from being able to connect people anywhere and anytime, new handsets of innovative technology boast cutting-edge functions( sharing photos and videos with more friends simultaneously ) , all at your fingertips, no one is not crazy about Facebook and Twitter that are on their computer screens or smart phones.

In spite of the merits mentioned above , never should we turn an blind eye to this technological progress . first and foremost , excessive use of internet and mobile phone has been undermining our interpersonal relationship off line . Even during a face-to face conversation , it is no rare thing that everyone is busy looking at his cell phone, neglecting his friends or families across the dinner table. worse still , the users` privacy is at stake on line . Chances are that the they may unconsciously leak their personal information by posting pictures or exposing profiles that strangers can get access to . That is why cyber fraud

has found its way there. This channel of committing crimes can bring more looming hazards than a daylight robbery. ( 极端比较)

As far as social interaction is concerned, the benefits of the cellular and the

Wi-Fi seem indeed too good to be blamed as long as the users keep it under control.

5.More and more work is done by machines and they begin to replace the humans in production and housework. To what extent do you think the positive effects outweigh the negative effects on the individuals and the society as a whole?

As humanity/ mankind/ human being has stepped into the 21st century, machines have found its wide application in all walks of life, including manufacture and chore , it is no rare thing to us that machines have started to substitute mankind . Do the merits outweigh the demerits? People rarely reach a consensus on such a controversial issue.

When it comes to electronic machines ,on one hand, people never fail to think of its great convenience . Compared with manual work , various domestic electronics ( washing machine, dish washer, vacuum cleaner ) boast greater power in handling almost all housework, as a result of which, a typical housewife can enjoy herself watching TV , with all the machines doing her work. Besides, heavy machines used in factories renders workers more safety and efficiency , an industrial robot can free them from the danger of working around a hot furnace .

Despite the great benefits , on no account should we ignore the relevant problems . To begin with , too much dependence on the home devices is likely to increase the risk of life-style disease , for the use of them greatly reduces our physical exercise ,( a simple click of the button will never burn as much calorie as a sweating labor does ), consequently , a lot of illnesses( hypertension, obesity ) keep on the rise. What is worse , excessive application of machines in production will probably trigger unemployment . One machine, with its higher efficiency , is able to substitute 10 workers , whose unemployment may pose a great threat to social stability .

In summary , the machines bear no original sins , they are invented with the aim to make human life more comfortable , their merits are too good to be blamed as long as we utilize them in a wise and moderate way.

Some people propose that…In appearance, it seems to be practical/ reasonable .While in truth, it cannot stand testing. I am firmly against this idea for several sound reasons as follows.

动物保护

6. In modern world, it is no longer necessary to use animals for food or use animal products, for instance, clothing and medicines. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

核心

保护濒危动物，禁止虐待动物protect wild/endangered animal species and forbid /ban /prohibit animal abuse

For

1. Many animals are of great value to the scientific and technological advancements

2.Animals can provide the necessary nutrition for human survival .

Against:

1. It is self-evident that all lives on the earth are equal, mankind does not have the privilege to deprive animals of their lives

2.. battery farming is cruel, the chickens are abused. (extract gall from living bears) shark fin

范文

Animals have always been the sources of human food , clothes , medicine or other products since human civilization began , however , some people claim that human use of animals is no more necessary in modern time . Even as an animal lover, I am against this view myself.

On one hand , animal meat ,by providing necessary nutrition (protein , fat) and energy, is essential for human health . Living in this competitive modern world, our energy consumption doubles with the increasing living pressure. When we are exhausted after a long day`s work , a wonderful meal of steak or chicken may be the best way to revive. On the other hand, for human survival , it is crucial to extract valuable substance from animals for medical purpose . Only certain animals can provide a cure for some fatal disease, say, cancer .

While exploitating animals for clothes is unnecessary. It is unbearably cruel to slaughter minks or seals to make fur coats. Fashion means torture for defenseless animals. In modern society , high-tech materials can replace fur to keep human

warm in cold winter.

In spite of the fact we are entitled to use animals for food and pharmacy out of necessity , we should always keep in mind that no wild or endangered animals are to be harmed for human interest. As the most powerful creature on the earth , we should be grateful for their sacrifice.

Merits of Globalization：

1.Create a win-win situation ，boost the global economy.

2. Enhance the international competitive edge of superior enterprises, eliminate the inferior enterprises.

3. Improve living standard. Enrich our life. Boost culture.

4. Provide more global work opportunities for people with special skills (paper-cut) /competent people

Defects:

Economic monopoly

Exploitation of the poor /backward nations.

Cultural /religious conflicts

Assimilation /loss of diversity.

7.He likes watching X-men, and is singing hip-pop. He can be anyone, a Chinese, an Indian, or a Spanish. And he is someone who might forget his own national identity in the age of cultural globalization. While such a concern increases among some scholars, I would rather approach this issue with a more balanced attitude.

The most striking beauty about such a phenomenon is that it frees people from the confinement of geography. Being Frenchmen does not mean they can only aspire to speak French, eat French food and read French novels. In addition to the increase of individual freedom, it also boosts the exchange and integration of various cultures, because they are not set in stone, and they develop under influence both from home and abroad. As more Chinese people sip wine , green tea , a traditional Chinese drink, is gaining popularity in France . As yoga is being known and practiced by more Americans, basketball is hailed by Indian fans with just the same craze as it is back home.

On the other hand, however, the disadvantages are not to be neglected, such as

the assimilation of values. People of various nationalities, by watching the same movies or TV programs, may share the same world outlooks. Living an urban life is generally considered superior to a country one, so millions of people rush to struggle in the city, ending up in slums. What is worse, the cultures of some nations with weaker economic power will be under great threat from those of the super powers, whose influence will wipe out other languages and traditions , for example , an increasing number of Chinese youngsters prefer Christmas to Spring Festival.

On the whole, no matter how the world would look tomorrow, as long as we know how to define ourselves, rather than have ourselves defined by cultures, we can make the most of what cultural globalization has to offer.

8.Space travel has been possible for some time and some people think the space tourism could be developed in the future.

To what extent do you think it's a positive or negative development?

enrich the travelling pleasure

boost relevant technological advance

dull ,dangerous ,radiation ----- not sustainable

waste of resources

space junk.,

waste of investment,

9.Many parents these days go to work in other countries, taking their families with them.

Do you think the advantages of the development outweigh its disadvantages merit /virtue

1, It is convenient for them to attend to their aged parents and young children who are likely to have trouble in their home countries. Generally , the foreign countries where parents are willing to take their families boast superior medical care or better environment.

2. It serves to maintain their family bond. If the parents and children are separated too long , there might be serious generation gap.

3. As for the children, they are offered a good chance to broaden their minds and learn

a second language.

defects

1, Living far away from their homelands, their families, especially old people will feel lonely and isolated from the new environment , for they have serious language barriers and are unlikely to make new friends of the same background there.

2. Despite the fact that children will have a more diverse study environment , they may have great difficulty understanding the text due to cultural difference and language hurdle, which might impede their further study.

3. Another factor we should not ignore is the living cost, which will probably double in another country .Thus, it will not be a good choice to take family members with them if their income is not large enough to cover all the expenses.

family 原则

old parents / children

couple / brothers, sisters

10.As part of education, students should spend a period of time studying and living in a different country to learn language and culture. Do you agree or disagree?

pros

Being very receptive and curious , students stand at an advantageous position in learning another language when they are totally exposed to an authentic language context.

Compared with the text book in their home countries, first-hand experience in foreign countries are more valuable ( of more value ) to their understanding about exotic traditions.

cons

As for some students who lack independence , it will pose great challenge to their study life overseas, especially when they have very little command of another language , for example ,English.

On the other hand, going abroad to study will increase the economic burden of their families .

What is more, the proficiency of language hinges on long time of consistent / constant efforts and devotion, the short period of time serves very little.

11.The students from the poor background such as rural areas often find it difficult to get access to the university education, so people think universities should make it especially easy for students from these backgrounds to enter. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

college education plays a crucial part in a person` s life , and it is a shame that some students are deprived of the right just because of poverty.

however, it does not mean that the access should be made especially easy , there must be a criterion and requirement , otherwise , it is unfair to other students. moderate aid should be provided to qualified students

bank loan . scholarship

internship.

12.Nuclear energy is better than other resources in meeting ever-increasing needs of the globe.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

nuclear power plant

merit

compared with coal , oil , ( fossil fuels )

highly efficient / clean , renewable

demerit (wind power, tide power)

high running cost , not affordable to all, huge potential danger of leakage , radiation to ecosystem , mutation

13.Charities should give aids to people in greatest need wherever they are from, while others think that they should only help people in their own country. Discuss both views and give your own opinion

A . To help the needy people is the best demonstration of humanism . As the equal member of international community , we are obliged to help our brothers and sisters who are suffering from poverty , illness or war.

Charitable projects serve to prevent the spread of epidemics and the influx of refugees , . It is conceivable that if the neighboring countries are afflicted with severe disasters , indifference will only worsen the situation and pose a threat to the stability of our country.

B

the charity fund is limited and it is impossible to help all the people across the world , for the interest of domestic people is always a top priority . Hatred will easily arise if the aid goes to foreigners instead of us.

unprincipled help , especially fund will make the relevant people lose independency

blind charity will breed corruption.

It is advisable that the charity groups should help as many people as possible while providing assistance to their national citizens.

14.Some people think parents should strictly control kids’ behavior, others believe children should freely behave as they like.

Discuss both views and give your opinion.

strict control is necessary for a child`s development ( forming good habit, building correct values, staying away from bad influence , it is useful for lazy children who lack discipline---------

lead to rebellion , deprive children of their imagination

submissive

freedom contributes to the exploration of children potential , imagination , creativity , questioning ,

flexible ,wise and moderate control is recommended .

(题目提示语) Economic and social indicators for Japan, Canada, Peru and Zaire in 1994.

Indicators Japan Canada Peru Zaire Annual income per person (in US$) 15,760 11,100 160 130 Life expectancy at birth 78 76 51 47 Daily calorie supply per person 3,326 2,486 1,927 1,749 Adult literacy rate (%) 99 99 68 34

The table illustrates the financial and social conditions in Japan, Canada, Peru and Zaire in 1994. It reflects the great differences between developed and developing nations.

Japan and Canada had annual incomes of $15,760 and $11,100 per person

respectively. These figures were significantly greater than the corresponding figures of $160 in Peru and $130 in Zaire. Life expectancy at birth was higher among the developed countries.(概括) Japan reported the highest life expectancy (78), while Zaire the lowest (47).

Peru and Zaire people were also in the disadvantageous position in terms of daily calorie provision . The amount of calorie they got from their daily food was less than 2,000 which was much lower than the amount taken in by Japanese and Canadians. Literacy rates among adults were also higher in wealthier countries. Japan and Canada both reported literacy rate of 99% each, while Peru claimed 68%, which was twice as much as that of Zaire , the lowest one.

The figures appear to confirm the link between national wealth ,health and educational standards. The higher level of economic development generates better living standards.

The pie chart below shows the main reasons why agricultural land becomes less productive. The table shows how these causes affected three regions of the world during the 1990s.

Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant

范文：

The pie shows that there are four main causes of farmland becoming degraded in the world today. Globally, 65% of degradation is caused by too much animal grazing and tree clearance, constituting 35% and 30% respectively. A further 28% of global degradation is due to over-cultivation of crops. Other causes account for only 7% collectively.

The chart below shows the amount of leisure time enjoyed by men and women of different employment status.

Write a report for a university lecturer describing the information shown below.

The chart shows the number of leisure hours enjoyed by male and female in a typical week in 1998 – 99, according to gender and employment status.

Among those employed full-time, men on average had fifty hours of leisure, while women had approximately thirty-seven hours. There were no figures given for male part-time workers, but female part-timers had forty hours of leisure time, only slightly more than women in full-time employment..

In the unemployed and retired categories, leisure time showed an increase for both sexes, as might have been expected. Here men also enjoyed more leisure time – over eighty hours, compared with seventy hours for women, perhaps reflecting the fact that women spend more time on housework than men. Lastly, housewives enjoyed approximately fifty-four hours of leisure. There were no figures given for househusbands.

Overall, the chart demonstrates that in the categories with statistics on male leisure time , men enjoyed at least ten hours of extra leisure time.

The graph below shows the consumption of fish and some different kinds of meat in a European country between 1979 and 2004.

Summarize the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparison where relevant.

范文：

The graph indicates great differences between the consumption of fish and three different types of meat in a particular European country from 1979 to 2004. As we can see, there is no overall pattern of either increase or decrease.

During the period of 25 years, beef and lamb both showed an obvious similar downhill trend, while the consumption of the former was always higher than that of the latter at any given time. ( while the latter overtook the former from ....on). In 1979, they reported approximately 220 grams per person per week and 152 grams per person per week respectively , and they both dropped by about 90 grams per person per week by the end of the period.

On the contrary , the amount of chicken consumed revealed an uphill trend, rising steadily from about 140 grams per person per week to 230 grams per person per week despite constant slight fluctuations during the whole time. There was very little change in the consumption of fish which remained the lowest all the time. It showed an initial fall from 60 grams per person per week in 1979; however, from 1982 on ,it remained stable at 48 grams per person per week for the rest of the period.

Overall, the graph shows the consumption of chicken increased dramatically while the popularity of other foods decreased over the period.
