many positive aspects of taking part in sports.)To begin with,when doing sports,we get the chance to train all parts of our bodies.There is no doubt that proper sports activities keep our physical fitness.Furthermore,sports can enrich our life and maintain our psychological health.Through participation in sports,everyone can learn that on the playground he not only struggles for himself but

some physical exercise,watch TV at home and so on.zIn the meantime,the two-day weekend also will bring some problems.In the first place,some college students always idle away their time,playing cards,drinking and even gambling.In the second place,doing part-time jobs will distract studentsattention from their study.zzTaking into account all these factors,we can safely come to the conclusion that college students will get/gain more benefits from the two-day weekend.As a student,I myself consider it very beneficial to us college students.If possible,I will find time to do many interesting things such as doing a part-time job or participating in social practice.All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.It is really true.模式二模式二z有些人认为.如:(做)某事有必要z有些人认为相反 如:(做)某事没有必要z1992年1月CET-4:Is

different attitudes towards failure.Some people regard failure as a bad thing.After a failure,they may become discouraged and even give up their hope for success.They think people will laugh at them because of their failure.zOn the other hand,there are still many other people who believe that failure is not a bad thing.They are not seriously affected by failure.In spite of their failure,they continue to do their best in what they do until they finally succeed.zzIn my opinion,whether a failure is good or bad somewhat depends on how one copes with the failure he has experienced.If you take a pessimistic attitude towards your failure,it will be a head-on blow to you and even do you severe harm.On the contrary,if you take an optimistic attitude towards failure,it may benefit you tremendously.You can find the correct way to success on the basis of your objective analysis of your failures.Remember,failure is not a crime,but failure to learn from failure is.模式三模式三z提出问题z分析问题z解决问题分析问题的常用句型分析问题的常用句型zThere are many reasons why.zThere are many means through which college students can get to know the society.zThe existence of the problem of can be

bad effects on the society and people,but also laid roadblocks to the development of the national economy.The government and consumers must work together to get rid of the roadblocks.zzFake commodities are harmful to us in many aspects.For one thing,they are dangerous to consumers.Fake goods ranging from foods,clothes to radios,TV sets,&even some medicines have brought a lot of trouble to our daily life.For another,fake commodities have equally affected some manufacturers with sound reputations.Those who have fallen victims of the fake goods will never buy them again,even though the commodities are good the next time.In addition,fake&inferior products do harm to the society&bring about great loss to the nation.zThere are many measures that we can take to get rid of fake commodities.In the first place,laws should be made to punish those who produce fake goods.In the second place,people should be educated to distinguish good products from the fake ones.Consumers shouldnt buy inferior things simply because they are cheap or the advertisements tell them to do so.zIn a word,the whole society should pay close attention to the problem of fake and inferior goods and fight a battle against them.Both the government and consumers should take measures to react against them so as to develop our economy in a healthy way.Only by doing so can fake commodities be driven out of our daily life completely in the future.图表作文图表作文历年四级考试作文题目历年四级考试作文题目zz1991年6月CET-4:zzChanges in Peoples Dietzz1.State the changes in peoples diet in the past 5 years.zz2.Give possible

computers more and more nowadays.Reading this chart,we can find that the average number of hours a student spends on the computer per week has increased sharply.In 1990,it was less than 2 hours;and in

friends in remote places through the Internet.Besides,the prices of computers are getting lower and lower,which enables more students to purchase them.zzHowever,there still exist some problems,such as poor quality,out-of-date designs and so on.And how to balance the time between using computers and studying is also a serious problem.zzAnyhow,we still benefit a lot from computers as long as we use them properly.(And I am firm in my belief that in the future,young students will make more effective use of computers to benefit themselves.)书信作文书信作文Letter Writing2001.6 zzSuppose you are Zhang
