As the number of the cars is rising, we are facing some problems. One big problem is the pollution ca
2、used 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
3、 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 environm
4、ental 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 peoples environmental awareness by putting a pollution tax on private cars. If people suffer from the financial loss when making a decision, they will thin
5、k 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 mus

7、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.第一部分:短文从一则新闻报道入手,要求考生就这一话题发表意见,由于是考生熟悉的校园话题,且考生看到题目直觉的反应就是不应该雇佣清洁工,因此首段直接表明观点,对该做法持否定态度。第二部分:主体部分从两方面进行分析,第一,根据古人“一屋不
8、扫,何以扫天下”的道理展开,说明作为大学生应该逐渐培养独立意识,不应该连最基本的小事都依赖他人;第二,从金钱角度阐述该现象的恶劣影响,大学生基本靠父母供养,雇佣清洁工打扫寝室很容易导致校园中产生攀比、炫富等不良现象。第三部分:结论部分呼吁结束这种做法,并且呼应主体部分的两点原因,号召大学生尽快建立独立意识和良好的金钱观,让父母对我们的自理能力放心。Should College Students Hire Cleaners?According to a recent report, six university students hired cleaners to clean their dor
9、m 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 ones laundry
10、are the most basic living skills. If we always depend on others to take care of us, how can we survive when there is no one to help us? How can we take on any responsibility when we step into society? For another, the practice reflects their flippant attitude towards money. The money they paid for t
11、he cleaners probably comes from their parents, who must be very depressed once they know the truth. It also sets a very bad precedent on campus. Other students may follow suit to show the wealth of their families; or worse, they tend to think money can buy them anything in this world, which obviousl
12、y is wrong.All in all, I think we must do away with this practice. Otherwise, we may never appreciate the good value of money and an independent way of life. The better and sooner we can take care of ourselves, the more proud our parents will be.2009年专四作文真题:Will Tourism Bring Harm to the Environment

Many people believe that tourism produce positive effects on economic growth and we should try our best to promote tourism. But wha
15、t these people fail to see is that tourism may bring about a disastrous impact on our environment. As for me, Im firmly convinced that too much tourists bring harm to the environment. The bad impact of tourism on the environment has mainly expressed itself in various ways. One way is the process of
16、exploiting a new scenic spot. In order to attract tourists, a lot of artificial facilities have been built, which have certain unfavorable effects on the environment. This process usually breaks the ecological balance of the area. In some mountainous places, trees are being cut down to build hotels
17、for others to see and explore the beauty of the mountains. Then land slides and mud-rock flows come up. Another way the development of tourism has damaged the environment occurs when tourists go to scenic spots. Some tourists dont have the awareness to protect the environment, and ignorantly throw t
18、heir garbage here and there. Some people even kill the local wildlife to eat, which badly damages the balance of the natural environment. It is wrong to sacrifice the environment for the growth of tourism. We must keep in mind that too much tourists bring harm to the environment. We need to find a b

Why would so many people like to do volunteer work? Are there any benefits of volunteering?The answer is absolut
22、ely yes. First of all, through volunteering we can gain more experiences. Whatever volunteering work we do, either being a volunteer teacher for a village school or a volunteer worker in a retired house, we can taste different lifestyles and broaden our horizon. Secondly, through volunteering we can
23、 acquire the sense of being needed. Many people feel frustrated with travails in life and empty with the cycling of working and resting. They gradually become numb, losing the sense of being needed. By joining the volunteer group and offering help voluntarily to people who need it, we may feel happy
24、 and fulfilled again. Thirdly, through volunteering we can learn more good qualities. Volunteer work is team work, which needs good cooperation. We can know people with different personalities and different background joining in the volunteer group and devoting to the volunteer work together. From o

28、ine. We know friends are indispensable in our daily life but they cannot stay with us wherever we go. For many people, especially college freshmen, leaving friends and the security of home for a new place where they dont know anyone can be overwhelming. With some online chatting tools such as QQ and
29、 MSN, they can talk to people they like and find people with common interests easily. In addition, online friends can help broaden our knowledge about different cultures and customs. Chatting with people from different places and social backgrounds is surely an effective way to understand other cultures and develop cross-cultural communication skills. We can also practice our English in speaking and writing. To sum up, making friends online is amazing. In the online global community we can enjoy an active social life with rewarding experience, so it is wise to make online friends. 专心-专注-专业
