(20 points)量体裁衣范文1：This cartoon is silly, and yet compelling: a large customer holds a hopelessly small piece of cloth as the tailor carefully measures. Such an image suggests that one needs to consider practical reality in the pursuance of goals. Merely acting on ones desires, while ignoring the facts at hand, cannot lead to success.The fact that currently there are more graduates than jobs reminds us of the importance of rational thinking. Every year approximately 3 million students graduate from universities and begin looking for work. Many of them fail to find suitable employment because there are simply not enough opportunities to accommodate such great numbers of graduates. In addition, however, one might also cite flawed individual assessment as a reason. In order to create a realistic target for ones future, one must make rational decisions and prepare accordingly. A student who aims to be a surgeon, for example, must take care to acquire opportunities to do clinical practice and gain sufficient knowledge. In other words, customers would do well to take accurate measurements before purchasing their fabric. A small piece of cloth cannot adequately clothe a large person.译文：这幅画很可笑，但引人注目。一位身体庞大的顾客在裁缝仔细地为他量尺寸准备做衣服时，手里却拿着一块小得令人绝望的衣料。这幅画告诉我们，一个人在执行任务的过程中必须考虑到实际情况，仅从主观意愿出发而不顾眼前的事实，是不可能成功的。当前大学生的就业率使我们意识到进行合理思考的重要性，每年有大约300万大学生从学校毕业，寻找工作，他们中的很多人并没有找到一份适合自己的工作，有一个原因是没有足够的就业机会提供给数量如此庞大的毕业生。但除此而外，过高的自我估计也是可能的原因之一。为了能够实现未来目标，一个人必须做出合理的决定，并做好相应的准备。比如一个志在成为外科医生的学生，就必须确保自己有临床实习的机会和足够的知识，换句话说，顾客在购买衣料前必须先量好准确的尺寸，一个大块头是无法穿上一小块布料的。范文2：In the cartoon we can see a large person being measured by a tailor to get suitable clothes made. Anything to be done must be measured in advance so that we are able to find a proper way to do it. If the tailor does not take measurements of the man, then he would not be able to make suitable clothes for this person. This same principle applies to solving any other problem. Firstly, when we want to know the reality of something, we must describe it like it is, getting rid of our prejudices and exaggerations, so that we can hxdye an unbiased view. Secondly, the object should be analyzed in a concrete way so that we can grasp the reasons and rules of it. Thirdly, we must adapt our approach to solving a problem, for each situation is different from the others. So we must view a problem from different perspectives. The cartoon implies different meanings to different people. A teacher should adopt different teaching methods according to the students in the class; a doctor should prescribe different treatments according to the patients symptoms; a farmer should seed different plants according to the various conditions of the earth. From a philosophical point of view, dissimilar problems should be approached differently. Good results come from attentive analysis of a problem.译文：从图中我们可以看到，一个裁缝正在给一位身材高大的人量身定做一件合适的衣服。在做任何事情都应该预先筹划，以便找到恰当的解决办法。如果这个裁缝不为这个人量尺寸，他就不能为他做出一件合适的衣服。 这个道理同样适合解决其它任何问题。首先，当我们要了解某事的真相时，我们必须如实地对其描述，排除任何偏见与夸张，以便我们能够得到真实的情况。其次，具体事物要具体分析，这样我们才能够抓住事物的规律。最后，事物的状态是不断变化的，所以我们应当“因地制宜，同时制宜。”总之，我们要从不同的角度看待问题。 图画的内涵对不同的人有着不同的意义。对于教师来说，面对不同的学生要采取不同的教学方法；对于医生来说，要根据病人的不同病情采用相应的治疗方法；对于农民来说，面对不同的土地状况要种植不同的作物。从哲学角度来说，具体问题要具体分析。好的结果总是来自对问题的仔细分析. 核心提示：例如，人们可能会想到莱昂纳多达芬奇画蛋，王羲之练习书法和托马斯爱迪生发明电灯的故事。我们应该重视这些故事和历史，牢记打好基础的重要性。金字塔Directions:Study the following picture carefully and write an essay in which you should1) describe the picture,2) interpret its meaning, and3) support your view with examples.You should write about 160200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points)金字塔是由一块块石头积累成的范文1：One glance at a pyramid can lexdye the viewer in awe of its beauty and splend or. Upon closer examination, however, one might be surprised to discover that such a grandiose structure is composed entirely of ordinary stones.Most people are familiar with the proverb: Rome was not built in a day. An object as grand as a pyramid is likewise not so quickly or easily constructed. Just as the greatness of the city of Rome is due to the combination of its smaller parts, a pyramid is only as strong as the stones it is comprised of. The image of a pyramid reminds us that great success is in fact an accumulation of small a chievements.History proves that many famous artists and scientists are only successful because of their continued efforts, even after numerous failures. One might recall Leonardo DaVincis drawing of an egg, Wang Xi Zhi practicing handwriting, or Thomas Edison inventing the light bulb, for example. The fable that tells us that even water can eventually pierce through stone also points to the importance of patience and diligence. We should take such stories and histories into account and remember the importance of fundamentals; remember that one can build a pyramid only if one is willing to work with small stones. People would be wise to abandon rash inclinations and instead try in earnest. Perseverance is sure to leadto success. 译文：瞥一眼金字塔，看见其美丽壮观的景象，敬畏之情就会油然而生。然而，走近仔细再看，人们会很吃惊地发现如此宏伟的建筑皆由普通的石头砌成。大多数人都熟悉这个谚语：罗马不是一天建成的。像金字塔这样壮丽雄伟的建筑也同样不能如此快地轻易建成。就像罗马城的伟大是由各个小的部分组合起来的一样，金字塔也如构建它的石头一样坚固。金字塔的形象告诉我们伟大的成功实际上就是集腋成裘。历史上，许多有名的艺术家和科学家都是由于他们不断的努力才获得成功的，尽管屡屡失败他们也在所不惜。例如，人们可能会想到莱昂纳多达芬奇画蛋，王羲之练习书法和托马斯爱迪生发明电灯的故事。“水滴石穿”这个寓言也喻意耐心和勤奋的重要性。我们应该重视这些故事和历史，牢记打好基础的重要性；且还要记住人只有在他愿意堆砌小石块时才能建造起金字塔。人们摒弃急燥冒进并代之以严肃认识是明智之举。坚持不懈必定会走向成功。范文2：We can see in the picture, a great Egyptian Pyramid towering magnificently into the sky. At first sight visitors may be overwhelmed by the pyramid and cannot help but marvel at the huge stones in front of them the embodiment of patience and endurance of an Ancient Egyptian Civilization. During this extended period of building, one can only imagine the amount of patience and endurance that was required by the people before any of this greatness was to be achieved.The stones of the pyramid remind us of a famous saying: “Rome was not built in a day,” that is, great things are never done without much time and labor.As human beings, we are eager to win merits for ourselves. It is, however, onlypatience as well as endurance that can help us to succeed in performing great deeds. In the case of Si Maqian, without those brilliant qualities mentioned above, he could never attain such great achievements. Difficulties are unxdyoidable, unless we do not engage in anything at all. In the end, it is patience and endurance that counts. Some people would give up halfway in the face of what seems to be insurmountable. Men of such a type can hardly expect to succeed. We must take a stepbystep approach to accomplish everything until we get the final result. The reason is very simple: if one attempts to climb a mountain, however high he reaches, he has failed if he does not reach the top. 译文：在这幅画中我们可以看到，一座伟大的埃及金字塔擎天而立，雄伟壮观。尽管游客们第一眼看到它时，都会被它的磅礴气势所震撼，然而震撼过后，他们都不禁要对眼前这些体现着古埃及人民坚忍不拔精神的巨石惊叹不已。在漫长的修筑过程中，你不难想象在这个伟大创举的背后，饱含着人民坚韧不拔的精神与毅力。 金字塔的巨石使我们想到这样一句名言：“罗马不是一天建成的。”也就是说，不付出艰辛的劳动和足够的时间就不会成就伟大的事业。人类急切希望为自己创造价值。但是，只有耐心和坚韧才能帮助我们完成伟大创举。以司马迁为例，假如他不具备上述优秀品质，成就那样的伟业绝无可能。做任何事情，障碍都是不可避免的，除非我们什么都不做。说到底，有了耐心和坚韧才能成功。 有些人在看上去不可逾越的障碍面前中途放弃。这些人是永远不会成功的。我们在做任何事情时都要脚踏实地，一步一步去实现我们最终的目标。道理很简单：如果一个人爬山，无论他爬得多高，只要没有到达山顶，他终归是一个失败者。 核心提示：前人栽树 后人乘凉Directions:How can we meet the needs of today without diminishing the capacity of future generations to meet theirs。 Sustainable development implies a broad view of human welfare, a long term perspective about social development。 Write an essay which should cover:1) describing前人栽树 后人乘凉Directions:How can we meet the needs of today without diminishing the capacity of future generations to meet theirs? Sustainable development implies a broad view of human welfare, a long term perspective about social development. Write an essay which should cover:1) describing the set of drawings below,2) stating its main idea, and3) giving your comment.You should write about 160200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points)前人栽树，后人乘凉范文1：The images above are both meaningful and instructive: this mans hard work is not only for his own benefit, but also for the benefit of future generations. The pictures serve to remind us that the existence of our current happiness and valuable national heritage is due to the struggles of our predecessors. We, in turn, should also work hard in order to guarantee the comfort and safety of generations to come. Sustainable development has become a topic of heated debate in recent years. While it is justifiable to satisfy current demands, we cannot neglect the needs of our descendants in the process. Our children also depend on Earths natural resources and we should not deprive them of such necessities. Unfortunately, many people only think of their shortterm, personal interests. An entire forest might be clearcut, in the interest of making a profit, without a single tree planted in its place. This inconsiderate attitude towards the welfare of our descendants, as well the indifference to the outcome of such reckless actions, can only turn Earth into a cold and lifeless planet. People must be taught to appreciate Earth as not only their home, but also the home of our children and grandchildren, as well as all other plants and animals.While making great efforts to increase our current quality of life, we must simultaneously consider how our actions will affect future lives. 译文：上面的漫画意味深长而发人深省，栽树人的艰辛劳作不只是为了他自己，也是为了后人。这幅漫画是为了提醒我们今天的幸福生活和宝贵的民族遗产归功于我们祖先的奋斗，而我们，反过来，也要努力劳动来确保我们后代的幸福和平安。可持续发展是近几年的热点话题，虽然我们要满足自己当前的需要，但不能将子孙后代的需求抛置脑后。我们的孩子同样需要自然资源，我们不能剥夺他们的这份必需品。不幸的是很多人只考虑他们短视的、自私的利益。为了获得利润，整片的森林被砍光，一棵树都不留下。这种不顾及子孙福利的态度，和对这种轻率行为的后果的无动于衷，只会让我们的地球变成一个冷冰冰而无生气的行星。必须告诫人们的是：地球不仅是他们的家园，也是他们的孩子和所有后代的家园，还是其他所有的植物和动物的家园。在努力提高今天的生活质量的同时，我们必须考虑到我们的行为会对未来的生命产生什么样的影响。范文2：As can be seen from the drawings, the father has planted a small tree thatgrows into a big one and is left to his son to enjoy. Years later, his son sits under the big tree enjoying its shade. In social development, we should not over utilize our natural resources, as in the case of forests. A reasonable use of forests and reforestation are the best choices in the long run. Human beings should plan ahead when it comes to social development. Even though trees are in short demand today, we must still keep the deforestation under control, for we do not want to eliminate all of our forests, which are essential to our existence. Reforestation is another wise practice. We may not fully benefit from planting trees for the time being, but we must continue doing so, since it will benefit later generations. From the point of view of sustainable development, we hxdye the responsibility to ensure that future generations hxdye enough natural resources to use and arenot penalized for the shortsightedness of present day decision makers. In otherwords, we should not use up our natural resources just to meet our own present day needs, while ignoring the future of our planet.译文：画中可见，一位父亲种了一棵小树，这棵小树将长成参天大树，他的儿子将会从中受益。多年以后，他的儿子坐在树下享受着大树带来的阴凉。在社会发展中，我们不能过度使用自然资源，比如说森林资源。从长远来说对森林的合理利用和植树造林是最好的选择。人类应当为社会发展做长远的打算。尽管木材在当今社会十分短缺，我们也必须控制滥砍滥伐，因为我们不愿看到森林这一人类赖以生存的基础被彻底用尽。植树造林无疑是又一项英明的举措。我们也许暂时不能够充分享受植树给我们带来的益处，但是我们必须继续将这一举措坚持下去，因为它会使我们的后代受益。从可持续发展的角度来看，我们有责任来保障后代有丰富的自然资源可利用，并且不会使他们因今天决策者的目光短浅而受到惩罚。换句话说，我们不应该仅为满足我们自己当前的需要而用尽所有的自然资源，忽视我们后代的需求。 核心提示：人生选择Directions:Study the following picture carefully and write an essay in which you should1) describe the picture,2) interpret its meaning, and3) point out its implications in our life。You should write about 160200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2。 (20 points)人生处处面临选择范人生选择Directions:Study the following picture carefully and write an essay in which you should1) describe the picture,2) interpret its meaning, and3) point out its implications in our life.You should write about 160200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points)人生处处面临选择范文1：This simple picture represents a situation that every person must face:when approaching a junction, which direction should one choose?Most viewers can empathize with the sense of hesitation and uncertainty embodied in such an image. Without exception, everyone has to make choices in life, whether they concern school, career, or love. While some choices are simple, one cannot xdyoid the task of making difficult decisions. Choices are often directly related to ones happiness. University students,for example, face a hard and crucial decision upon graduating. Many students hxdye difficulty deciding whether to continue studying or begin developing a career. Every individual is different, and one must take the factors of ones personal life into consideration. In addition to an awareness of specific circumstances, however, making the right choice also depends on correct appraisal of oneself.In order to choose correctly, therefore, one must be both realistic and selfaware. Furthermore, once hxdying made a decision, one should seriously accept and pursue the path one has chosen, and strive towards the realization of ones goal with spirit. 译文：这幅简单的画表现了我们每个人都要面对的情况：走到叉路口了，该选择哪条路呢？绝大多数读者都能感受到这幅画中包含的犹豫和彷徨。毫无例外，每个人在一生中都要多次做出选择无论是涉及到学业、职业还是爱情。虽然有些选择很容易，但一个人无法回避艰难的选择。选择通常直接关系到一个人的幸福。比如对大学生来说，临近毕业就面临着一个艰难而至关重要的选择很多学生难以决定是继续求学还是开始自己的职业生涯。每个人的情况都不相同，所以一个人应该把自己生活的方方面面都考虑到。除了对周围特定的环境要有清楚的了解外，做出正确的选择还依赖于有一个正确的自我评价。因此，一个人为了做出正确选择，必须既现实又清醒。此外，一个人一旦做出了决定，就应该严肃地承认并奉行既定的路线，鼓起勇气为实现自己的目标而奋斗。范文2：In the picture we can see a man standing at a crossroad with two similar roads, and trying to decide which way to take. In daily life we are often faced with such choices. More often than not, we hxdye to make cardinal decisions indepentently. This moment is very important for everyone to go through. In order to make a decision that we will not regret, we should bear these two principles in mind: thinking before acting, and never missing any opportunities that arise. On one hand, we should hxdye an apparent, objective judgment about ourselves while maintaining a clear idea about the world around us. On the other hand, we should also think about opportunity. Many people may not quite agree with this and think that opportunity is so rare that only the luckiest people come across it. However, opportunity is open to everyone and one should make good use of it when confronted with it. One should take advantage of it just like the proverb states: “Opportunities are only from the prepared minds.” So when one is faced with choices the next time, remember that using the mind and taking advantage of good opportunities will pxdye the way to success.译文：从这幅画中我们可以看到，一个人正站在叉路岐途之前，等待他的是要决定究竟走哪条路。人生中我们经常会面临这样的选择。我们还时常必须独立做出重大决定。这是我们每个人都要经历的重要时刻。如果我们不想为自己做出的决定而感到后悔，就必须遵循这两个原则：一是三思而后行；二是不要错过任何机会。一方面，我们要对自身做出客观公正的判断，同时还要对我们周围的世界有一个清醒的认识。另一方面，我们对待机遇要用心思考。有些人可能不太承认机遇，认为机遇太少，而且只是那些幸运儿的专利。然而，机遇是属于每一个人的，所以在面对机遇时我们要充分利用它。每个人都应利用机遇，正如这句名言所说：“机遇只留给那些做好准备的人。”所以当你再一次面对机遇时，请不要忘记开动脑筋，莫失良机，成功一定属于你。 核心提示：缺乏经验的年轻人必须注意，要脚踏实地塑造和追求自己的理想并为之而奋斗。就拿科学研究为例，研究者不应把自己局限在手头易得的资料中。相反，打破常规走出去搜集尽可能多的资料，对于科研者来说是至关重要的。已被科学界的前辈广泛研究过的大量科学资料可被看作是当今科学研究的基础。站的高 看的远Directions: Study the following drawing carefully and write an essay in which you should1) describe the drawing,2) interpret its meaning, and3) point out its implications in our life.You should write about 160200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (20 points)范文1：Drawings can be useful tools; a simple picture may reveal a profound truth. The illustration above, for example, is far from complicated, and yet carries deep implications; from the top of a mountain one can see clear and far. Such an image draws attention to the fact that people tend to be distracted by immediate benefits, or deterred by present difficulties. If one was to stand higher and take a broader view, one could make wise, longterm decisions, as well as hxdye a clearer sense of how to solve any given problem. The importance of keeping things in perspective is of practical significance to university students especially. When students face difficult decisions such as choosing between majors or careers, or deciding whether to continue with postgraduate education, they should consider their future life in broad terms. If you allow yourself to become preoccupied by immediate interests or discouraged by current obstacles, you might not make the wisest decisions. Nevertheless, it is important to realize that viewing our lives from a far is not equal to aiming for an unattainable goal. Inexperienced youth must be careful to realistically create and pursue their ambitions.It is best to look beyond temporary needs and problems and keep ones present and future life in perspective.译文：图画是一种有力的表达工具，简单的一幅画往往揭示深刻的真理。比如说上面这幅站得高，看得远。简单，但却意蕴深远。这幅画揭示了一个事实人们往往只为眼前的利益所吸引，或被时下的困难所阻吓。如果一个人站高一点，眼界放宽一点，那么他就可能做出更成熟、更着眼长远的决定，而对解决当前面临的问题也会有更清醒的认识。对于大学生来说，富有远见并整体地看待事情尤其具有重要的现实意义。当面临一个不容易作决定的选择诸如选专业、找工作，或是决定是否考研时，必须从长远的角度来考虑自己的未来。如果斤斤计较于当前的利益，或是囿于眼前的困难而踯躅不前，那是不会做出最明智的决定的。不过，目光长远并不等于空谈海市蜃楼，意识到这一点是很重要的。缺乏经验的年轻人必须注意，要脚踏实地塑造和追求自己的理想并为之而奋斗。用长远的眼光看待眼前的需要和问题，用全面的眼光对待现在和未来，这才是最好的。范文2：As can be seen in the drawing, a man is standing on top of the highest of many mountains while looking at something far away. If you want to be considered as the man who can see further than anyone else, you must stand on giants shoulders. Needless to say, if you were to stand at the foot of a mountain, mountains would be all around you, surrounding you, blinding you. You can only see a small piece of the sky when looking up, just like a frog at the bottom of a well. If the frog wants to see the outside world, it must jump out of the well to broaden its range of vision. In science, researchers should not confine themselves to xdyailable materials that can be easily found. On the contrary, it is very important for them to go outside the norm and use as many materials as possible. A large number of scientific materials that hxdye been defined by previous scientists can be regarded as the basis of present research. If we want to make more progress in our present study, we must base our research on previous theories and results. The more materials you possess in your base, the greater the potential. That is, the higher on the mountain you are, the farther you can see.译文：从这幅图中我们可以看到，一个人站在最高的那座山的山顶上，眺望远方。如果你想成为比别人看得更远的人，你必须站在巨人的肩膀上。毫无疑问，假如你站在山脚下，你会被群山包围而障目塞听。当你抬头仰望，你只能看到一小片天空，就像一只井底之蛙。如果这只青蛙想看到外面的世界，它必须从井底跳出来开阔自己的视野。就拿科学研究为例，研究者不应把自己局限在手头易得的资料中。相反，打破常规走出去搜集尽可能多的资料，对于科研者来说是至关重要的。已被科学界的前辈广泛研究过的大量科学资料可被看作是当今科学研究的基础。如果我们想在当今科研中取得更大的进步，就必须以前人研究的成果为基础。 核心提示：为未来充电Directions: Study the following set of cartoons carefully and write an essay in which you should1) describe the cartoons,2) state its main idea, and give your comment。You should write about 160200 words neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2。 (20 points)范文1：These two cartoons show为未来充电Directions: Study the following set of cartoons carefully and write an essay in which you should1) describe the cartoons,2) state its main idea, and
