你的朋友彼得沉湎于网络，因而成绩下降，你，汤姆，作为他的朋友，给他写封信，谈谈你对网络的看法。
Dear Peter,
I am sorry to hear you are so obsessed with Internet that you have neglected all your studies. As your friend, I feel obliged to share with you my opinions on surfing the Internet.
With Internet becoming part of our life, we are increasingly aware of the benefits it brings about. It keeps us informed of current social affairs and the latest information. It enriches our life by allowing us to play games or chat or listen to music. In a sense, our life becomes colorful correspondingly thanks to the Internet.
However, we should never be addicted to Internet, especially when we are faced with the most important exam in our life. We should make use of Internet to improve ourselves and relieve our pressure. Never should we lose our control and forget our main task. I sincerely hope you can wake up as soon as possible and strike a balance between relaxation and your study. As long as you stir up, you will still live up to your parents’ expectations.
Yours, Tom

Will Christmas Replace the Spring Festival?
1．全球化环境下，每个人都有选择自己喜欢的节日的自由。
2．过圣诞节并不意味着就不重视春节这一传统节日了。
One possible version:
Christmas arouses increasing attention year by year in China. Christmas cards become popular with students. People hold Christmas parties and exchange Christmas gifts. A lot of TV and radio programs about Christmas are on. Meanwhile the Spring Festival is less appealing to youngsters. Thus some people wonder whether Christmas will replace the Spring Festival.
This worry is fairly unnecessary. Why? One reason lies that Christmas only affects Christians, college students and joint-venture workers. Another reason is that Christmas is mostly celebrated in cities. Few people in countryside show extreme interest in this exotic(带有异国情调的) festival. By contrast, the Spring Festival is the most influential traditional festival in every family in China.
I think, it is natural that with increasing exchanges with the West, a lot of Western holidays have been gradually introduced into China. For us Chinese we should never neglect or even discard our own traditional festivals. For centuries Chinese have observed this traditional holiday to welcome the beginning of a new year. And we will treasure the Spring Festival forever.

2009上海高考英语作文
2009上海高考英语作文With the advent of the 21st century, the Internet has become an integral part of our lives, revolutionizing the way we communicate, work, and learn. The impact of the Internet on education has been particularly profound, offering new opportunities and challenges for students, teachers, and educational institutions alike.Firstly, the Internet has provided access to a wealth of information that was previously unavailable or difficult to obtain. Students can now research topics in real-time, consult online encyclopedias, and access academic papers from around the world. This has not only made the learning process more efficient but also encouraged a more in-depth exploration of subjects.Secondly, online learning platforms have emerged, offering courses on a wide range of subjects. These platforms allow students to learn at their own pace and according to their own schedule, which is particularly beneficial for those who may have work or family commitments. Moreover, online courses often come with interactive features such as discussion forums and virtual labs, which can enhance the learning experience.However, the Internet has also brought about challenges in education. One of the main concerns is the issue of information overload. With so much information available, itcan be difficult for students to discern reliable sources from unreliable ones. This requires a new set of skills to evaluate the credibility of online content.Another challenge is the potential for distraction. The Internet is filled with tempting content that can divert students from their studies. It is crucial for educational institutions to teach students how to manage their time effectively and to stay focused on their academic goals.In conclusion, the Internet has had a significant impact on education, offering both opportunities and challenges. As we move forward, it is essential for educators to harness the power of the Internet to enhance learning while also addressing the issues that come with it. By doing so, we can ensure that the Internet becomes a valuable tool for education rather than a hindrance.。

2009年高考全国一卷英语作文题目
2009年高考全国一卷英语作文题目全文共10篇示例，供读者参考篇1Oh my gosh, I can't believe I have to write a super long essay for the 2009 National College Entrance Exam! But hey, I'm gonna do my best and show off my English skills.So, the essay topic for the exam is all about the importance of learning English. Well, let me tell you, English is super cool and useful. I mean, you can talk to people from all over the world, watch awesome movies without subtitles, and even travel to different countries without getting lost.When we learn English, we can open up so many doors for our future. We can get better jobs, make new friends, and have amazing adventures. Plus, learning English is so much fun! We get to learn about new cultures, try out new foods, and listen to cool music.I know some of my friends think English is hard, but I'm not giving up. I practice every day, watch English cartoons, and listen to English songs. I even have a pen pal from the UK! It's so cool to learn about her life and share about mine.So, even though writing this essay is a bit of a challenge, I know it's gonna help me improve my English skills. And who knows, maybe one day I'll be able to travel the world and speak English like a pro.So, to all my fellow students out there, keep on learning English and never give up. It's gonna open up so many opportunities for us in the future. Let's show the world how awesome we are at speaking English!篇2Hey guys! Do you remember the 2009 national college entrance examination English essay question? Oh, it was a tough one! We had to write a composition of more than 2000 words. Can you believe it?The essay question was something like this: "Many people believe that success in life comes from hard work and determination. Others believe that it comes from luck and chance. What is your opinion? Use specific examples and details to support your answer."Wow, that's a big question! But don't worry, we can break it down and make it easier to write about. First, we need to think about what success means to us. Is it getting good grades,making lots of money, or being happy? Once we figure that out, we can start writing about whether success comes from hard work or luck.In my opinion, I think success comes from a combination of hard work and luck. Sure, we need to work hard to achieve our goals, but sometimes we also need a little bit of luck to help us along the way. For example, if we study really hard for a test, we might still need some luck to get the questions we know the answers to. And if we work hard at our job, we might need some luck to get a promotion or a raise.It's also important to use examples and details to support our opinion. For instance, we can talk about famous people who have achieved success through hard work and determination, like athletes who train for hours every day to win competitions. We can also talk about people who have had unexpected success, like actors who get discovered by chance and become famous overnight.So, in conclusion, I think success comes from a mix of hard work and luck. We need to work hard to achieve our goals, but we also need a little bit of luck to help us along the way. And if we keep working hard and staying positive, we can achieve anything we set our minds to!Alright, time to start writing that 2000-word essay! Let's do this!篇3Oh my gosh, I can't believe I have to write an essay for the 2009 national college entrance exam! That's like, super important and stuff. But hey, I'm gonna do my best because I wanna get into a good college and make my parents proud.So, the essay question is like, "Describe a memorable experience in your life and explain why it was important to you." Hmm, that's kind of a tough one. I mean, I've had a lot of cool experiences like going to Disneyland or winning a spelling bee. But I think the most memorable experience for me was when I rescued a baby bird that fell out of its nest.It all started one sunny day when I was playing in my backyard. I heard this tiny chirping sound and I saw a cute little bird flapping its wings on the ground. I knew it needed help, so I gently picked it up and put it back in its nest. I felt so happy and proud that I could save the little bird's life.This experience was so important to me because it taught me a valuable lesson about kindness and compassion. I realized that even the smallest creatures in the world deserve our loveand care. It also made me feel like a superhero, like I could make a difference in the world.I'll never forget the feeling of joy and satisfaction I had when the baby bird flew away with its family. It was a moment that will stay with me forever and remind me to always be kind and help those in need. I'm so grateful for this experience and I know it will shape me into a better person in the future.So yeah, that's my essay for the 2009 national college entrance exam. I hope the examiners like it and I get a good score. Wish me luck, guys!篇4I'm so excited to tell you guys about the English test question on the 2009 national high school entrance exam! It was super fun and interesting, and I can't wait to share it with you!So, the question was all about writing an essay on a given topic. We had to write more than 2000 words, which might sound like a lot, but it was actually pretty easy once we got started. The topic was something like "The Importance of Friendship", which I thought was really cool because it's something that everyone can relate to.I started off my essay talking about how friends are like treasure - you know, they're really valuable and precious. I used examples from my own life, like how my best friend always picks me up when I'm feeling down, or how we have so much fun together playing games and going on adventures. I also talked about how friends help each other out, like when they study together for exams or support each other through tough times.I then went on to discuss why friendship is so important. I talked about how friends help us grow and learn, how they make us feel loved and accepted, and how they bring joy and laughter into our lives. I even mentioned some famous quotes and sayings about friendship to make my essay more interesting and persuasive.Overall, I had a really great time writing my essay for the English test. It was a fun and creative way to express myself, and I felt proud of what I had written. I hope you guys enjoyed hearing about it as much as I enjoyed writing it! Thanks for listening, and I can't wait to see what other awesome topics we get to write about in the future!篇5Hey guys, have you heard about the English writing topic for the 2009 national college entrance exam? It's like super important, and I wanna share it with you all!The topic is about "My Dream School". Isn't that cool? We get to imagine our dream school and write about it. I think I would want my dream school to have a big playground with lots of swings and slides. And maybe a cool treehouse where we can have secret meetings and play games.In my dream school, the teachers would be really nice and funny. They would make learning super fun and interesting. I would love to have classes on art, music, and even magic! Yeah, wouldn't that be awesome?Oh, and my dream school would also have a huge library with tons of books and comfy bean bags to read in. I love reading, so having a big library would be a dream come true for me.I think in my dream school, there would also be a big garden where we can grow our own vegetables and flowers. It would be so cool to learn about nature and how to take care of plants.Overall, my dream school would be a place where I can learn, play, and make friends. It would be a place where I feel happy and excited to go to every day.What about you guys? What would your dream school be like? Let's share our ideas and create some awesome stories together! Let's dream big and have fun with our imaginations!篇6Title: My Thoughts on the 2009 National College Entrance ExamHey everyone! So, you know how we always hear about the big scary test that high school students have to take to get into college? Well, that test is called the National College Entrance Exam, and in 2009, it was a big deal. I want to share with you guys my thoughts on the exam and why I think it's so important.First of all, the National College Entrance Exam is like the ultimate test that determines your future. It's like the Super Bowl of tests, except instead of winning a trophy, you get to go to a cool college. So, it's super important to do well on this test because it can really open up a lot of opportunities for you.Secondly, the exam covers a bunch of subjects like English, math, Chinese, and other stuff. It's a lot of information to remember, and it can be pretty overwhelming at times. But at the same time, it's a great way to show off all the stuff we've learned in school. So, even though it's tough, it's also kinda cool to see how much we've grown and know.Lastly, I think the National College Entrance Exam is important because it teaches us to work hard and stay focused. It's not easy to prepare for such a big test, but it's a good lesson for us to learn about perseverance and determination. Plus, it's a great way to show our parents and teachers how much we care about our education.In conclusion, the 2009 National College Entrance Exam was a big deal, but it was also a great learning experience. I hope that when it's my turn to take the test, I'll be prepared and do my best. And who knows, maybe one day I'll get to go to a really awesome college because of it. But for now, I'll just keep studying and dreaming big. Thanks for listening, guys!篇7Title: My Experience on the 2009 National College Entrance ExaminationHey everyone! So, I wanna tell you all about my experience taking the 2009 National College Entrance Examination, also known as the gaokao. It was a pretty big deal and I was super nervous, but I survived it and I'm here to tell the tale!First off, let me tell you about the day of the exam. So, I woke up super early because the test was in the morning. I had my breakfast, packed my pencil case, and headed off to the exam center with my parents. There were so many other students there and everyone looked so focused and serious.When I got to my desk, I looked at the test paper and felt my heart sink a little. There were so many questions and I wasn't sure if I knew all the answers. But I took a deep breath, said a little prayer, and started writing. The first section was Chinese, which is my strongest subject, so I felt pretty confident. The next section was math, which is not my favorite subject, but I tried my best.After the morning session, we had a break for lunch. I was so hungry and tired, but I knew I had to stay focused for the afternoon session. The next section was English, which is usually my favorite subject, but the questions were kinda tricky. I did my best to answer them all, even if I wasn't 100% sure.Finally, the exam was over and I felt a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I was so relieved and happy that I made it through the gaokao. My parents were waiting for me outside and they were so proud of me. We went out for a celebratory dinner and I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders.So, that's my experience taking the 2009 National College Entrance Examination. It was a challenging and nerve-wracking day, but I made it through with hard work and determination. I hope all of you who will be taking the gaokao in the future will do your best and believe in yourself. Good luck, everyone!篇8Title: My 2009 National College Entrance Examination ExperienceHey guys! Today I want to tell you all about my experience taking the 2009 National College Entrance Examination (NCEE)! It was super exciting and a little bit nerve-wracking, but I think I did pretty well in the end.So, the exam started early in the morning and we had to be at the test center pretty early. I was so worried that I would oversleep, so I set like a million alarms to make sure I woke up ontime. When I got to the test center, there were so many students there and everyone looked super serious.The first part of the exam was the Chinese language test, which was kind of hard because there were a lot of difficult vocabulary words. But I did my best and tried to remember all the grammar rules we learned in class. Next was the math test, which was my favorite part because I love solving math problems.I think I did pretty well on that one!After a quick lunch break, we had the English test. I was a little bit nervous about this one because English is not my strongest subject. But I practiced a lot of reading and writing before the exam, so I felt more confident. The listening section was a little bit tricky, but I managed to understand most of it.Finally, we had the last test, which was either science or history depending on your major. I chose the science test because I like learning about how things work in the world. It was a little bit challenging, but I think I did my best.After the exam was over, I felt so relieved and excited that I had finished all the tests. I celebrated with my friends and we all went out to eat together. It was a great day and I will always remember my 2009 NCEE experience!In conclusion, taking the 2009 NCEE was a challenging but rewarding experience. I learned a lot and tested my knowledge in different subjects. I hope that I did well and can get into my dream college. Thank you for listening to my story and I hope all of you will have a great experience taking the NCEE too!篇9Title: My Thoughts on the 2009 National College Entrance ExaminationHey guys, today I want to talk to you about the 2009 National College Entrance Examination! It's a big deal for all of us, right? I want to share with you my thoughts and feelings about it.First of all, let me tell you how I prepared for the exam. I studied super hard, you know! I made sure to review all my notes and do lots of practice tests. I even joined a study group with my friends so we could help each other out. It was tough work, but I knew it was worth it.When the day of the exam finally arrived, I was so nervous! I felt like my stomach was doing somersaults. But once I started the test, I calmed down a bit. The questions were challenging, but I tried my best to stay focused and answer them as well as I could.After the exam was over, I felt a mix of emotions. I was relieved that it was finally done, but I was also worried about how I did. I kept thinking about all the questions I wasn't sure about and wondering if I had made any mistakes.But you know what? In the end, I realized that all I could do was my best. The exam is just one part of my life, and no matter what the results are, I know that I have the skills and abilities to succeed in whatever I choose to do.So to all my friends out there who also took the 2009 National College Entrance Examination, remember to stay positive and keep believing in yourselves.

Today I want to tell you about the topic of the national entrance exam in 2009. It’s about an English essay question that we had to write about.The question was "What is the most valuable lesson you have learned in your life so far? Explain why this lesson is important to you.”I think this is a really cool question because it makes us think about the things that are important to us and the lessons that we have learned along the way.So, when I was thinking about what to write for this essay, I thought about all the things that I have learned in my life. I thought about the times when I made mistakes and how I learned from them. I also thought about the times when I achieved something and how it made me feel proud and happy.In the end, I decided to write about the lesson that I learned when I was in a school play. I was really nervous because I had never acted before and I was afraid that I would mess up. But I worked really hard and practiced a lot, and when the day of the performance came, I did my best.After the play was over, I realized that the most important lesson I learned was to never give up, even when things are difficult. I learned that with hard work and determination, I could achieve anything that I set my mind to.This lesson is important to me because it taught me to believe in myself and my abilities. It also showed me that I am capable of doing great things if I put my mind to it.So, that’s the lesson that I wrote about in my essay for the 2009 national entrance exam. I hope you enjoyed hearing about it! See you next time!。

She wanted to improve her English, because it could help her get a better job, maybe even a job teaching English someday. She’s interested in traveling and studying different cultures.

She also feels North American students often discriminate against other students who don’t have fashionable clothes and hairstyles. In her opinion, North Americans aren’t open to different cultures and customs.65. Why did Poliana come to the U.S.?A. Because she was interested in traveling and studying different cultures.B.

As immigrants with little money, my parents were convinced that the time to teach children about investment building was as early as possible. They wanted my brother and me to get a head start on that long road to financial stability.Two years earlier my parents had helped me open my first bank account, and now my mother was introducing me to mutual funds. An enthusiastic pupil, I was soon contributing income from my paper route towards my investments.Then, later, as a high-school student with university on the horizon, I began to wonder how I could possibly afford the $2,200-a-year tuition. I had decided to major in sciences, with the aim of going on to medical school. In other words, there were a lot of years of tuition ahead of me.Clearly, it was time to step up my investing planning. I read investment magazines carefully and thoroughly for money-making advice. My comfort level grew, as did my investment. At the end of high school, I was able to pay for my university tuition. In fact, the proceeds of that investment supported me much of the way through medical school.Since Mom’s first chat nearly two decades ago, I have come a long way as an investor. Above all, I have seen firsthand how smart investing can help you reach important goals in life. It’s partly thanks to the good financial habits I picked up as a child that I’m enjoying a medical residency in Edmonton today — thanks, in other words, to my money-wise Mom and Dad.72.

Success comes from financial stability(D)Scientists estimate that more than 60 percent of cancer deaths in the United States are preventable through lifestyle changes. Although there is no certain way to avoid all cancers, reducing individual risk factors significantly decreases the likelihood of getting many forms of this dangerous disease.The American Chemical Society estimates that smoking causes nearly 30 percent of all cancer deaths in the United States — that is, about 166,000 cancer deaths each year. All cancer deaths caused by tobacco smoking could be prevented completely by not smoking and not using smokeless tobacco. For those who already smoke, quitting will reduce the risk of developing cancer. Studies show that after about ten ye ars of not smoking, a past smoker’s risk lowers to about the level of those who have never smoked.After quitting smoking, eating a healthy diet is the best way to lower the risk of cancer. Certain foods have been found to protect against cancer. Among these foods are cabbage, tomatoes, soy products, and foods high in vitamins A, C, and E. In addition, green and possibly black teas contain compounds that protect the body from cancer-causing substance.To lower cancer risk, diets should include little or no red meat. Other foods to avoid orconsume in moderation include sugar, fat from animal products, and salt. Added fats and oils should come from vegetables, such as olives or corn, rather than from animal sources. Carbohydrates (碳水化合物) should come from whole grains, such as brown rice and whole wheat bread, rather than from processed foods, such as white rice and white bread.The risk of cancer of the esophagus (食道) increases with heavy alcohol consumption, and many studies suggest that consuming alcoholic drinks increases the risk of breast cancer as well. Studies show that limiting intake to two drinks a day for men, and one drink per day for women, reduces cancer risk.Low levels of physical activity have been implicated (牵连) in some cancer. Moderate activity for 30 minutes a day enhances the immune system, shortens the time food takes to move through the intestines (肠), and changes body composition and hormone levels. Researchers are studying how these effects might lower cancer risk.76. Which do you think is the best title for this passage?A. Lifestyle and DiseaseB. Tips for Cancer PreventionC. Causes of CancersD. How do We Remain Healthy?77. Which of the following is true according to the author?A. Those who have quitted smoking for 10 years and non-smokers have the same cancer risk .B. Once a smoker has stopped smoking, there is almost no chance of getting cancers.C. A balanced diet is absolutely effective in preventing one from getting cancer.D. A person drinking tea regularly will not be likely to suffer from cancer.78. What kind of people increase their chances of getting cancers?A. Their food contains less sugar, animal fat, and salt.B. One who is not moderate in drinking and eating.C. Those who have one or two drinks regularly and enjoy doing so with their families.D. Those whose diet contains a lot of red meat and not a little fruit.79. The last paragraph implies that ______.A. Food's staying in one's body for too long a time might be related to a kind of cancerB. Exercise can consume more whole grainsC. 30 minutes' physical activity is good for ordinary peopleD. Plenty of physical exercise is most important for one to remain healthySection CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.A. A careful analysis biologicallyB. What is global warming?C. Solution to the terrifying resultD. Greater danger of extinctionE. Many shocking things were found.F. A shocking report80.The earth is getting warmer. People burn coal, oil and gas and this produces carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. These gases, called ―greenhouse gases‖, prevent the heat of the su n from leaving the earth’s upper atmosphere and this makes the earth warmer.81.A few weeks ago a group of scientists produced a report about global warming and the natural world. They wanted to find out if global warming was dangerous for plants and animals. According to what they found, the scientists say that during the next 50 years about 25% of land animals and plants will become extinct. More than a million plant and animal species will be extinct by 2050.82. More than 10% of all plants and animals will become extinct. It is too late to save many plants and animals because of the greenhouse gases that are already in the atmosphere. But the scientists say if we control greenhouse gases now, we could save many more plants and animals from extinction.83.The scientists studied some regions of the world with a very rich biology. These regions were Europe, Australia, Central and South America, and South Africa. Their studies showed that species living in mountainous areas had a better chance of survival because they could move uphill, to get cooler. In flat areas, such as deserts, plants and animals would have to move a very long distance to get cooler, so they are in greater danger of extinction.84.The scientists found that half of the 24 species of butterflies they studied in Australia would soon become extinct. 60% of the species in the Kruger National Park in South Africa would also die out, and more than 100% of the 300 South Africa plant species they studied would also become extinct. One of the plants in danger of extinction is the national flower of South Africa, the King Protea. They studied 163 tree species in the Cerrado region of Brazil and found that 70 would become extinct. Many of the plants and trees that live in this region live nowhere else in the world. In Mexico, they studied 1,870 species and found that more than 30% of these were in danger of extinction.第II 卷（共45分）I.
