14、fer the latter view. A higher educational background exerts a tremendous fascination on a great number of people, with no exception to me. This phenomenon that the graduates have difficulties in finding job after their graduation can easily be found anywhere in our daily life, especially on campus.

15、On the one hand, with the improved high education of Chinese college students which directly brought the result that there are more and more graduates every year.

21、tional Day, in which people can spend one week or so enjoying themselves in different ways, especially going shopping and traveling. It has been agreed that the long holiday may bring much more benefit to both the customer and the businessmen.On the other hand, however, the long holiday also brings

22、much expectable problems to the society. First, too many visitors in the long holidays have caused the strain in traffic. Second, the visitors like to go to the well-known interesting places, which may lead to the serious damage to the nature and the scene.In my view, people need such long holidays,

23、 and what really matters is how to guide people in their entertainment. For example, it is advisable that people try to avoid going shopping or traveling in the rush days. Anyway, the long holiday is a good idea of satisfying both the people and the merchants.2015年12月第一套Directions: For this part, yo

26、 listening. First and foremost, only by listening to others carefully can we understand their points of views. Secondly, more listening can not only broaden our horizons, but also helps us absorb others wisdom. Last but not least, listening is an input and talking is an output. It is unwise to voice

27、 our opinions in those topics that we are unfamiliar with.As an old Chinese old saying goes, silence is gold.

30、uthless and relentless competition, only by learning constantly can we bring our potential and ability into full play and catch up with the times. Secondly, learning does not only help us acquire knowledge, but also enriches our lives and broadens our horizons. Thirdly, science and technology change

31、 with each passing day. Without constant learning, it would be impossible for us to update our knowledge.Accordingly, it is constant learning that really matters in achieving success in modern society.

As we all know, there were numerous scientists who wanted to find this substance, but it was her firm actions that made her the first Chi

35、nese Nobel laureate in medicine.WhyReasons are quite simple and can be listed as follows. To begin with, only by taking actions can we find the best way to solve those problems we are facing, but as a bystander, we can learn nothing meaningful. In addition, in an age full of ruthless and relentless

36、competitions, without taking actions to make things happen, we are bound to lose those valuable opportunities. For instance, if Apple had just gone out there to see what happens in mobile phones, it could not have presented the amazing product, iPhone, to us.Accordingly, we college students should n

37、ot just be a watcher but a doer. In my humble opinion, we can start from applying what we have learned into practice.2015年6月高校英语四级考试作文真题及范文How Will Our Life Go on without InternetIf asked whether the Internet is the greatest discovery of the 20th century, my answer would be yes. The Internet has dra

38、wn the world closer together, realized countless incredible dreams, and provided modern people with a great many conveniences and a brilliant life.Today, many people simply feel they cannot live without the Internet. Governments publish their latest policies and decisions online for worldwide recogn

39、ition. Political campaigns are often done online to gain wider public support. Companies and enterprises resort to the Internet for more business opportunities and potential customers home and abroad. Universities and researchers turn to the Internet if theyd seek international cooperation or fundin

40、g. Common folks like us also rely on the cyber world in various ways, for communication, entertainment, banking and shopping.True, the power of the Internet is all pervasive and its many negative effects are already visible. For example, Internet addicts tend to withdraw to their own fantasy world r

41、ather than communicate with a real person. Children are exposed to online pornography and violence. Internet frauds are an everyday occurrence. In view of all this, you are advised to use the Internet with wisdom. Keep it at a safe distance and never lose yourself.范文一As is clearly depicted in the ab

42、ove picture, a daughter tells his mother a piece of good news that she has been admitted to a university as her mother desires. There is no denial in saying that the cartoon leaves us such a deep impression that we cannot help thinking over a question: What role should parents play in their children

43、s growthFrom my point of view, during the process of a childs growth, the role of parents is mainly listed as the following two aspects. On one hand, there is no doubt that parents are liable to take good care of their children. On the other hand, in childrens personal growth, parents ought to play

44、a role as a person who helps children develop self-dependence, which carries more significant to childrens future life. In other words, parents should encourage their sons or daughters to be independent rather than reliant on others.To conclude, in childrens personal growth, parents are responsible

45、to care for their children. However, considering that they will grow up and live their own life in some day, parents should enable their children to acquire the ability to be self-independent.Go to school, the right choiceAs is vividly depicted in the cartoon given above, we can observe that a son,

46、holding a smart phone, says to his mom, “why am I going to school if my phone already knows everything” there is no doubt that the picture strongly reflects that phenomenon that more and more students object the idea of going to school when they have a phone, which can help them know everything. How

47、ever, it is by no means a sensible idea.It is generally acknowledged that going to school is not outdated. Whereas, it will remain as vital as it used to be. To begin with, going to school makes it possible to study with classmates and make progress together. As the old saying goes, “many hands make

48、 light work.” If students can study together, they can arouse the interest and cooperate with each other, thus making study more easy and enjoyable. Whats more, going to school means the face-to-face communication. It goes without saying that this way is more direct and effective, where we can raise

49、 questions and solve all the questions on spot. Last but not least, mobile phones cannot replace school. When using mobile phones. There are more chances for students to distract their attention. In addition, they may easily addicted to the games on the phone.On the whole, as far as I am concerned, mobile phones do help us study in some ways
