1、精选优质文档-倾情为你奉上英语专业八级满分作文范文推荐Ambition is the decision one makes and the resolution with which he carries out that decision. It provides us with the required driving force to accomplish any undertakings in our life. Just as Joseph Epstein, a famous American writer put it, “And as we decide and choose,

2、so are our lives formed.” Indeed, once we make up our minds to choose to do something, then our life becomes meaningful and specifically orientated. This notion of life, as far as I observe, is closest to truth and does apply to almost all aspects of life. First things first, ambition renders us a s

3、ense of mission. No matter what decision you make you have to be responsible for your choice. Your choice procures you a sense of orientation, or more specially a sense of mission. And only a strong mission may enable one to accomplish greatness. Caesar of the ancient Roman Empire was urged by his a

4、mbition “I came, I saw, I conquered.” And became an unrivaled empire builder in the history of Rome. John Milton, stimulated always by his ambition that aimed at writing some “mighty lines” which England would unwillingly forget, had in due time secured his position as the second Shakespeare in the

5、history of English literature. In the second place, ambition can bring ones potentials to the full. Ambition may well serve as a catalyst activating ones dormant potentials. Without ambition ones potentials will remain slumbering like a dormant volcano. A case in point is Ms Zhang Haidi, a Chinese H

6、elen Keller. It was her ambition to be a useful person has turned the almost paralyzed Zhang Haidi into a well-accomplished figure whose achievements would dwarf those of some normal people aim at the sun, though, at worst, they may probably land on the moon. Influential as it is upon us, however, a

7、mbition must be channeled in the right direction. If wrongly directed, ones ambition may bring havoc on him and others. Hitler, whose ambition was to conquer Europe by whatever evil means, finally turned him into a demon. It was this demon that almost cast Europe into an unfathomable abyss of anguis

8、h and suffering. Another case is Macbeth whose ambition was to become the king of Scotland. However, his ambition was materialized by the murder of King Duncan. Consequently, unbearable guilt and psychological agony drove him to his tragic doom. To sum up, ambition can benefit us tremendously if wis

9、ely and correctly channeled, otherwise it may ruin others and ourselves. A poet says: life can be bad; life can be good; life can be dirty; life can be sad,; life can even be painful. In my minds eye, a person can make his life beautiful, meaningful and rewarding and stand out as a respectable perso

10、nage if he is motivated by a well-orientated ambition. 2013 英语专八范文：中国大学收费制度On University Tuition System in ChinaTuition system has become one of the hottest topics in China since it was put into effect. Different people have different opinions on it. Some people think that there is no university in

11、the world which is open to students without tuition. As far as China is concerned, it is a developing country with the largest population in the world. The government is unable to allocate enough funds to pay for various teaching facilities and many different kinds of expenses. One of the ways to re

12、lieve the problem is for students to pay tuition. The money raised in this way can be used to improve the conditions for running schools. Others, however, are opposed to the tuition system. They argue that the living standard of the Chinese people, especially of those in the poor rural areas, is sti

13、ll low, compared with that in the Western World. The university tuition will certainly add to the already heavy burden of the parents, who live on their salaries or wages. Moreover, tuition may become an obstacle to the development of Chinas higher education. This is because it hinders some talented

14、 people from entering the university just on account of their poverty.The Rise of Intellectual Property ProtectionIntellectual property scarcely existed in the vocabularies of academic researchers and administrators even 15 years ago. Now it is an ever-present part of discussions on research policie

15、s and directions. This new importance of intellectual property in academia reflects a changing view on their relationships of research at universities to the surrounding society. Until recently, research at universities has been relatively isolated from demands of economic utility, and education of

16、graduate students has emphasized a career in academic research as the final goal.Now almost all research universities in the United States have technology licensing operations. The number of U.S. patents granted to American universities in a year rose from about 300 in 1980 to almost 2000 in 1995. T

17、he direct economic impact of technology licensing on the universities themselves has been relatively small. In contrast, the impact of university technology transfer on the local and national economies has been substantial, and leads to the conclusion that the Licensing Act () is one of the most suc

18、cessful pieces of economic development in recent history. It has been estimated that more than jobs have been created in the United States in product development and manufacturing of products from university licenses, with the number increasing fairly rapidly as the licenses mature.Intellectual prop

19、erty terms have become vitally important. The company wants to be assured that it can use the results of the research-and that these results will not be available to their competitors. But most universities insist that transfer of research results is pivotal to their identity and mission and will no

20、t agree to keep the project results secret. The key to resolving this dilemma is to grant patents: the university will publish the results, but will first agree to file patents that will protect the companys privilege in the commercial market place.2013英语专八范文：是什么让我们作弊?What Has Turned Us Into Cheater

21、s?The writing topic for this years CET-6 was revealed again before the day of testing. A student has been expelled due to misbehavior in a final examination. This kind of titles has been very popular these days, and all these have revealed a public secret: cheating on exams. This behavior, which was

22、 denounced by almost all, is spreading at a high rate, and this has puzzles not only teachers but also the whole society. Then why do students cheat on exams? In my understanding, there are mainly three reasons,(namely unscientific testing, completion for scholarship, and pressure from future job hu

23、nting).Some students cheat on exams to protest against the improper testing format. The purpose of university education should be teaching students to use knowledge to solve problems; therefore, exams and tests should test students ability to use certain knowledge to solve some problems. But most te

24、sts in China just test understanding instead of application, and some exams are even worse because they only test students memory. Some students think it unnecessary to spend time and effort to prepare for such exams, so the just cheat in order to get a decent score, which in their mind, means nothi

25、ng. Dr. Wang who specializes in education assessment supported this view in one paper, and he said that teachers should blame themselves because they forced students to cheat.More students cheat on exams in order to struggle for scholarship. As universities are collecting tuition from students, they

26、 also increase the amount of scholarship. This money of course is very attractive to students, who have virtually no income. As scholarship is mostly decided by examination scores, students willing to get the money will try every means possible. In a recent survey, some good students admitted that t

27、hey cheat on exams because if most students are cheating, it is unfair when you choose not to. This probably represents a breach of traditional ethics, and is a more important reason than conscientious protest against improper tests.The most important reason, in my mind, should be the pressure from

28、job hunting. In the past few years the situation in the job market is deteriorating, and this forces students to prepare as early as possible. Due to its importance, students naturally want to make their reports more attractive, and one way to realize it is cheating. As a student said in a news repo

29、rt, students are aware of the cost of being caught, but the profit of not being caught is too much, so many of them just go ahead. Maybe it is not unreasonable to say that it is the society that makes students cheaters.To sum up, the desires to get a good job and a high scholarship, or simply to sig

30、nal a protest in current education, have forced us students to copy in exams. It is undeniable that some suffer from weak moral principles, but it is wrong to blame them only. Only when the society and the university find the real source of the problem and deal with it can we restore the traditional

31、 criticism against cheating.2013英语专八范文：旅行能促进国家间的交流Travel Helps Promote Communication between CountriesWith the steady growth in the worlds economy as well as the peoples living standard, nowadays more and more people are able to afford to go to travel abroad. Thus people of different races and color

32、s have more chances to meet each other and understand each other. Such activities among people help promote the understanding and communication between countries, which helps to make this world a better and more harmonious place.Different countries are striving to develop their national tourism beca

33、use tourism really has a lot of advantages. Firstly, beautiful scenery, attractive tourist spots and splendid culture allure tourists with different parts of the world, which provides many opportunities to promote exchanges among people from different backgrounds. For example, since the reform and o

34、pening-up, China, a country which has rich tourist resources, receives millions of foreign tourists every year. The frequent contacts between foreign tourists and Chinese people promote the exchanges of culture and science, creating international friendship and promoting deeper understanding and str

35、engthening ties. Meanwhile this has accelerated the development of these countries. Secondly, travel enriches ones knowledge, widens ones vision and enhances mutual understanding. In the past, Chinese people knew little of the outside world. Since the reform and opening-up, with peoples living stand

36、ard greatly improved, more and more people have the chances to go abroad for sightseeing. Through traveling, we Chinese have expanded our scope of knowledge, and we have come to know the world better and have been learning how to develop our own country better. Thirdly, tourism boosts（推进） local econ

37、omy and promotes commercial exchanges. Singapore is such a good example. It is a small country with scarce natural resources. But owing to the prosperous tourism, the countrys economy develops very well and it is named one of the four economic tigers in northeastern Asia.But some people say that tou

38、rism cannot work so well as people expect. They argue that the purpose of the tourists is just to enjoy sightseeing and in fact tourism has its disadvantages. Firstly, tourism does great harm to the tranquility（宁静） and sanitation（卫生，卫生设施） of the local place, and sometimes it even causes pollution to

39、 the natural environment. Secondly, many tourists cannot even speak a word of the language of the country they are visiting. There is little possibility that they will have a deep understanding of the country in such a short period of time. Thirdly, during the trip, poor service and language barrier

40、（语言障碍） may even give rise to unwanted（不必要的） misunderstanding. Also the tourists wealth may make the local people more aware of their own poverty and lead to jealousy and psychological imbalance.As the proverb goes, No garden is without weeds. In my opinion, compared with the advantages, disadvantage

41、s of tourism have become trivial things. It is important for a country to develop its tourism to upgrade its international position and at the same time promote global understanding to remove prejudice and bias. We should make good use of our rich tourist resources to make our motherland more beauti

42、ful and attract more foreign friends.2013英语专八范文：面试仅能看到外在而非内涵Interview - A chance to view the outer part, but not the coreAs a senior student in university, I have gone through many interviews - interview to recruit new club members, interview for internship（实习医师, 实习医师期）and so on. In my opinion, the

43、procedure of recruitment is like choosing apples - viewing resumes is liking picking up apples, you can only decide the appearances, or in other words, whether there are obvious flaws. Interview is like the first bite, by which you know the real taste of an apple. But only by eating all the apple ca

44、n you see the core. That is to say, only by working with a person for some time, can you judge a person. So to me, interview can help us to get a basic knowledge about a person and is indispensable in recruitment but it has its limitations.Interview is most helpful in the aspect that it provides int

45、erviewer a chance to observe something that resumes can not tell, for example, How the interviewee behaves? Is he/she nervous under pressure? Does he/she has excellent communication skills like eye contact? These things might be very important. Because some job might ask more than ones academic know

46、ledge it might also require the ability of dealing with people and so on. Another important function of interview is that it can help interviewer to decide whether the interviewee lied in his/her resume. As we all know, under hot completion, in order to get more chances, some people tend to lie in t

47、heir resumes about their experiences and so on. But in an interview, interviewer could ask questions related with interviewees experiences. If the experiences are made-up, its easy to detect. The last advantage of interview I want to list here is that it can be carried out in different forms for dif

48、ferent purposes for example, pressure interview - to see how a person react under harsh conditions, group interview - to see how a person act in a team and so on. Thus, by arranging an interview in a particular form, a company can find out the person most suitable for the job.But interviews have the

49、ir limitations. You can not find out all about a person in only a few hours like that some apple might appear good and taste sweet but bad in the core.In summary I want to point out that interview is an efficient way for companies to choose their employs but only by observing the long term performance, can you judge an employee.专心-专注-专业
