二解读专四作文历年真题

专四英语作文历年考题(1992~ 2009)及其类型

如上表所示,从1992年到2010年共19年的专业四级作文来看,全部都为提纲式作文。

1提纲式作文

提纲式作文为考生提供了明确的英文题目与一个简单的写作提纲,将考生的写作控制在一定范围内。它要求考生紧扣题目主题,并根据提纲提示的思路和要点展开段落。由于提供的写作提纲一般分为提出论点、论证或描述论点和总结全文等三部分,所以考生必须按照三段式作文将简单的提纲扩展为主题句,再按照主题句作文的写作方法进行文章写作。

按照命题形式,提纲式作文又可进一步划分为三个具体的命题类型:

1)对比选择型

对比选择型的题目,在提出一个话题后,通常给出这个话题的两种观点或两种选择,然后要求考生分析对比两个观点或两种选择的优缺点,从两者中选出一种作为自己作文的论点,并论证其正确性。

2)给定观点型

给定观点型的题目,在提出一个话题之后,同时也给定了关于这个话题的一种观点,要求考生以这个给定的观点作为作文的论点进行论证。这种类型作文的关键是如何能够很好地论证给定的观点。

3)自由发挥型

自由发挥型的题目,在提出一个话题之后,可能会提供一些大家对此话题的观点和看法,要求考生通过利用已给定的材料做出自己的分析,然后发挥想象力,提出并论证自己的观点。题目对考生的观点不做限定,只要不离开给出的话题即可。考生既可以从题目给出的观点选一个作为自己的观点,也可以自己提出一个题目没有的想法。

从1992年到2009年共18年的专业四级作文来看,采用对比选择型命题方式的作文最多,有9个,可以分为三类:

2016 Part VI Writing Read carefully the following excerpt on term-time holiday arguments in the UK, and then write your response in NO LESS THAN 200 words, in which you should: ·summarize the main message of the excerpt, and then ·comment on whether parents should take children out of school for holiday during term time in order to save money. You should support yourself with information from the excerpt. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, origination and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks. Term-time holidays will be banned Parents are to be banned by Michael Gove, UK’s Education secretary, from taking their children out of school to save money on holidays. He is t abolish the right of head teachers to “authorize absence” from the classroom, which has been used to let families take term-time breads, and will warn them they face fines for their children not being at school. “Any time out of school has the potential to damage a child’s education,” a senior source at the Department for Education said this weekend. “That is why the government will end the distinction between authorized and unauthorized absence.” “This is part of the government’s wider commitment to bring down truancy levels in our schools. There will also be stricter penalties for parents and schools.” The tough measures on truancy are part of a wider attempt by Mr. Gove to make education more academically rigorous and to tackle a culture in the educational establishment which he believes has accepted “excuses for failure”. Russell Hobby, the general secretary of the National Association of Head Teachers, said the measure would discourage parents from trying to put pressure on heads to sanction term time holidays. “The high cost of holidays outside of term time is still an issue but ultimately a child’s education is more important than a holiday,” he said. Write your response on Answer Sheet Three.

TEM-2011:Should private car owners be taxed for pollution? 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. 272words TEM-2010:Should College Students Hire Cleaners? According to a recent report, six university students hired cleaners to clean their dorm and do their laundry every week. Although we have no right to tell them what to do with their money, as a university student myself, I find this practice absurd. For a start, away from our parents, it is in university that we learn to be independent adults. Cleaning the room and doing one’s laundry are the most

专四作文样题及参考答案+2016、2017、2018真题及参考答案

专四作文样题 (2016年发布) 第一部分:原题 PART VI WRITING [45 MIN] Should we review traditional Chinese characters or continue using simplified characters? This has been an intensely discussed question for years. The following are the supporters' and opponents' opinions. Read carefully the opinions from both sides and write your response in about 200 words, in which you should first summarize briefly the opinions from both sides and give your view on the issue. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks. Yes No Traditional characters, which date back to more than 2000 years ago, have a more beautiful appearance and a more reasonable structure. As indicated by the 親and 愛examples, traditional characters make more sense, convey traditional values and can therefore represent traditional culture. For two millennia, Chinese historical records and classic works were written in traditional characters. To be able to read them and inherit traditional cultures, we need to bring traditional characters back. Politically, it is also necessary to restore traditional Chinese characters. Currently, traditional characters are still in use in Hong Kong, Taiwan and many Chinese communities around the world. Restoring them can contribute to cross-Strait exchanges and national reunifications and unite Chinese people around the world. In today’s world, efficiency matters most. Traditional characters, which usually have more strokes than simplified ones, are more difficult to learn. By contrast, simplified characters are much easier to learn and use. Over the past 50 years, lots of classic texts have been turned into simplified-character versions, which means simplified characters can also promote and preserve traditional culture. Constant simplification has been a trend in the evolution of Chinese characters. From the oracle bones script of 3000 years ago to traditional characters, the Chinese writing system has always been slimming down for better communication.

1 Weather Weather affects all of us in one way or another, directly or indirectly. For example, good weather makes people happy and gay, while bad weather makes people sick and depressed. Besides, on a fine day, one can get out for a walk or play a game in the open air. On a rainy day, however, he can only stay indoors. In a word, weather is part of life for all of us. The first thing that many people do after getting up in the morning is to see what the weather is like. With a knowledge of the weather, people can arrange work and life of the day. If it is fine, he may decide to go on a picnic. If it is cloudy, he will have to take a raincoat or an umbrella with him when he is leaving the house. Whatever the weather may be, one tends to adjust his activities to it accordingly. In order to know what the weather will be, special people are hired to provide this information. They collect data, analyze them and provide the weather of the coming day. This information, which is announced on the radio or on TV, is usually very accurate. Thanks to the efforts of those professionals, we can always know the weather in advance and get prepared for it. 2

优秀专四作文范文 导语:下面是小编整理的关于专四必背的作文,希望大家喜欢,小 编就很喜欢这一篇作文,现在跟大家一起分享。 专四题目:朋友 Some people choose friends who are different from them, Others choose friends who are similar to them. Which kind of friend would you choose-different or similar? 专四范文: Choose a Friend Who Is Different From You This would be a very boring world if we were all exactly the same. Our differences are what make us exciting and interesting. Personally, I prefer different friends since you can enjoy a variety of interests and you can also learn from each other. Firstly, the most obvious and undisputed advantage of having a different friend is that you can enjoy more kinds of amusement. Admittedly, if your friends and you have the same interest in something, you can share with each other and that will be an enjoyable time for you. However, it will be more interesting if you can persuade your friends to enjoy your interests that he or she has never ever tried before, Secondly, a different friend means the opportunity to learn from each other. Given that each person can be good at different things, you can expand your scope of knowledge by making different friends. For instance, a friend of mine was very good at mathematics and I was quite good at literature, So we always learn together. She made some complex arithmetical problems clearer and I explained to her how to write an essay better. This greatly contributed to our gradual progress in

The amount of tax private car owners would have to pay would depend on the emission levels, i.e. engine or vehicle size. This has caused quite a stir among the public. Some regard it as an effective way to control the number of cars and reduce pollution in the city. But others don't think so. What is your opinion?Should Private Car Owners be Taxed for Pollution?(200 words) One possible version: Should Private Car Owners be Taxed for Pollution?

NOTE-WRITING: During the summer vacation you would like to invite your best friend to your home town.Write a note to him/her, extending your invitation and telling him/her how to get to your hometown. (50-60 words ) One possible version: Dear my friend, The summer vacation is coming next month. I hope you will visit our home town and stay with us. It's beautiful here with everything in bloom now. If possible, you can come here by the train No. 1010, which will arrive here at 18:00.I am looking forward to seeing you as soon as possible. Sincerely yours, Sally 2010—COMPOSITION: It was recently reported in a newspaper that six students who shared a dorm at a university hired a cleaner to do laundry and cleaning once a week. And each of them paid her 60 yuan a month. This has led to a heated debate as to whether college students should hire cleaners. Should College Students Hire Cleaners?(200 words) One possible version: Should College Students Hire Cleaners? It’s a popular phenomenon nowadays that college students would hire cleaners to help do the laundry and clean their dormitories, which has sparked a heated debate among students, parents and teachers. In my point of view, such practice should not be encouraged on campus. To begin with, college students should have the capacity for the basic laundry and cleaning work. Doing family chores is a simple way to cultivate independence. If college students can’t even do the most basic things in their life, how c an they handle big challenges under pressure in the future? In addition, college students should feel shamed of disposing of their parents’ hard-earned money in this way. Since a large proportion of their living expenses and tuition are covered by their parents, hiring cleaners could be considered a waste of money. Finally, I do not agree with those who claim they hire cleaners for the sake of either study or saving time. This is a mere excuse for their sloth and overreliance. In summary, hiring cleaners should be discouraged on campus, where students are supposed to cultivate a sense of responsibility and independence rather than become lazy parasites. NOTE-WRITING: Your good friend, John, is thinking of organizing an end-of-the-term party. Write him a note telling him that you like his idea and offer to help him. You have to be specific about how you can help him.(50-60 words ) One possible version: Dear John,, As a close friend of you, I really love your idea of organizing an end-of-the-semester party. W hat a great idea! It’s my pleasure to give some help if necessary. Firstly, I would like to attend the celebration and share our joy. Secondly, I wish to hold a small musical soiree, at which a band of mine will perform some works by Bach and Strauss. Looking forward to your reply. Yours, Mike 2009—COMPOSITION: Tourism is a booming business in China. However, some people worry that too many tourists may bring harm to the environment, while others don't think so.
