2012年6月四级作文真题 Excessive PackagingNowadays the phenomena of excessive packaging of goods are prevailing in our society: clothes swathed in tissue paper, placed in cardboard box and finally wrapped in well-designed plastic bags, imported bottles of grape wine packed in wooden boxes, fruits put in hand-woven baskets, to name but a few. There are several causes of excessive packaging. The first reason is that a large number of companies believe that they can attract customers attention and stimulate their purchasing desire by over-packaging their goods, thus gaining more profits. On the other hand, quite a number of consumers mistakenly hold that the more delicate the package is, the better the quality will be, thus encouraging excessive packaging.In my point of view, excessive packaging has disastrous consequences, including the loss of precious resources, excessive consumption of water and energy, and unnecessary extraction of scarce land for landfill.To solve the problem, its necessary to take the following measures. First, laws and regulations must be made to restrict excessive packaging of companies. In addition, we need to raise consumers awareness that excessive packaging doesnt equal to high quality and advocate packaging recycling.2011年12月英语四级真题作文Nothing Succeeds without a Strong WillAs a humorous saying goes “quitting smoke is the easiest thing in the world, I have done it hundreds of times”, it reminds me what a significant role a strong will plays in our life. I firmly believe that “Where there is a will, there is a way”. In terms of the academic performance, a strong will exerts a great influence on students academic performances. A strong will of acquiring the knowledge and resisting the temptation of entertainment motivates students to try their best in order to pursue the academic excellence. When it comes to the musical mastery, it is well known that the key to acquiring proficiency in musical instrument is a strong will of repetition. For example, the famous pianist Lang Lang plays the piano from 5am every day and practices over and over again. Therefore, we can easily draw the conclusion that nothing succeeds without a strong will. I am convinced that for the individual himself, nothing is more important than his strong will and his determination to follow that. 2008年12月四级作文真题Limiting the Use of Disposable Plastic Bags1.一次性塑料袋曾被广泛的使用 2.造成的问题 3.限制使用的意义 Disposable plastic bags were once widely used in China. When we went shopping at supermarkets and departments stores, shopping assistants often provided free plastic bags for our convenience. For a while, life without them seemed unimaginable for most of us. However, disposable plastic bags do bring severe damage to our environment. Costumers usually threw them away after use, and because they are thin and hard to decompose, these plastic products will exist for a long time. This is an immediate threat to our earth and water. Nowadays, the government has passed relevant regulations for limiting the use of disposable plastic bags: they are not free any more. In some shopping places, in order to invoke the public awareness of environmental protection, plastic bags are offered in a much higher price. As a result, people are changing their behavior: paper and clothing bags that vanished for a long time come back to our daily life. It is true that by limiting its usage, everyone in this society contributes some effort to the improvement of the environment. 2010年6月英语四级作文测试题Private Tutoring1为孩子聘请家教目前非常普遍2家教的利与弊3我的看法A recent investigation shows that about 80 percent of pupils have private tutors. Such a popular practice indicates that people are attaching greater importance to education. Many parents, for various reasons，missed the chance of obtaining a good education. When their children meet with difficulties in study, they are helpless. Private tutoring is the only solution. As private tutoring is usually one-to-one, the teacher knows the strong points as we11 as the weak points of the pupil, clearly. However, private tutoring has its own disadvantages; for one thing, it takes up so much of the pupils time that they can hardly find enough time for rest and entertainment, which are essential for their physical and mental health. For another, some teachers, busy “shuttling” from one family to another, tend to neglect their regular teaching duties. Whats more, some teachers are eager to help pupils do well in the test, offering the so-ca11ed tips for testtaking rather than help them acquire what is more meaningful. Generally speaking, its disadvantages outweigh its advantages. Greater emphasis should be laid on classroom teaching and practice, on the improvement of teaching quality and on the tapping of the pupils potentials. Only in this way can we generation be healthily brought up.2010年6月英语四级作文测试题Environmental Protection1. 目前环保还存在着许多问题。2. 为了保护环境，各国政府做了大量的工作。3. 我的看法。There are still many problems of environmental protection in recent years. One of the most serious problems is the serious pollution of air, water and soil. The polluted air does great harm to peoples health. The polluted water causes diseases and death. What is more, vegetation had been greatly reduced with the rapid growth of modern cities. To protect the environment, governments of many countries have done a lot. Legislative steps have been introduced to control air pollution, to protect the forest and sea resources and to stop any environmental pollution. Therefore, governments are playing the most important role in the environmental protection today. In my opinion, to protect environment, the government must take even more concrete measures. First, it should let people fully realize the importance of environmental protection through education. Second, much more efforts should be made to put the population planning policy into practice, because more people mean more pollution. Finally, those who destroy the environment intentionally should be severely punished. We should let them know that destroying environment means destroying mankind themselves.2009年6月四级真题Free Admission to MuseumsNowadays, an increasing number of museums are admission-free to visitors home and abroad. The hidden reason behind this is not hard to analyze as theres a growing awareness for the authorities regarding the urgency of popularization of culture, knowledge and history with every average person in our society. Only with free access to this live database, can most people fully enjoy what museums could offer to them.However, free admission to museums might lead to some social problems as well. The most obvious problem is that it might give museums a very heavy economic burden which directly impedes the sustainable development of these organizations. As a result, our government has to work out other ways to collect funds from different channels, which might be difficult to operate or control. On the other hand, free admission attracts too many visitors, some of which might not be well-purposed and do some conscious or unconscious damage to the valuable treasures which used to be well-preserved in the museums.As a university student, I am in favor of the free-admission conduct. Yet it is proposed that some measures should be taken to solve the potential problems caused by it. For example, museums can make some regulations to guide the behavior of visitors or set some closed days for museums for regular maintenance. Only in this way can free-admission to museums become a long-lasting phenomenon and have sustainable development.1. 北京奥运会现招募志愿者。2. 本次志愿者活动的目的、内容、安排等。3. 报名条件及联系方式。An Announcement for a Voluntary ProgramWelcome to Beijing Olympics!
