A survey conducted in Tianjin found that 98% of high school students and 92% of elementary school students have to spend most of their weekends doing homework.
　　Write an essay of about 120 words. You may include the following points:
　　1. Discuss the negative effects of too much homework on children.
　　2. Discuss the disadvantages of the present exam-oriented education system.
　　3. Call for efforts to ease students' burden and help them lead a colorful and enjoyable life.
　　「参照范文」
　　Too much homework has become a common complaint in high schools and elementary schools. Students have to spend most of their time doing homework, even on weekends. As a result, they have no time for their hobbies, or for their parents or friends. All they do is what they have to do, not what they like to do.
　　The underlying cause for this phenomenon lies in the present exam-oriented education system. National College Entrance Examination has become the sole focus of teachers, parents, and students themselves. High score becomes the ultimate goal, to the neglect of practical abilities, personality development, and all that.
　　It is urgent that we deepen our educational reform. We must allow for students' overall development, not just evaluate their test scores.

　　Dear sir:
　　I wish to apply for a position with your company as an assistant accountant. I am twenty-six years old and at present employed by the Island Company, where I have been for the past two years. Formerly I was employed by Global Export Co., where it was nearly three years.
　　My only reason for leaving either of these positions would be to better myself and I feel there is no future opportunity in my present position. I wish to serve in a large company like yours, to provide me with ample opportunities to learn new things.
　　I can give you references from both these firms as to my character and ability as an accountant. My present salary is $2,600 a month and I would not care to accept less in another position, but I am willing to start at the same salary, provided there is an opportunity for advancement.

According to some surveys done by the Ministry of Education, there are about 153 million illiterates and semi-illiterates in China. Its illiteracy rate in the western region is much higher than the country's average level and it is as high as 40 percent. The rate for the country's whole population stands at 14 percent. Write an essay of about 120 words, stating your opinion about this issue now confronting China.
　　「参照范文」
　　The task of educating a huge population can be challenging to any country. Though China has shown great concern and done much in education, and in eliminating illiteracy, it still has 153 million illiterate and semi-illiterate citizens, according to some statistics issued by the Ministry of Education. So, in my opinion, raising China's education level, to a large extent, depends on greater educational achievement in its vast western region and some other backward areas.
　　In the past decade, China has moved to combat illiteracy and promote nine years of compulsory schooling, especially in poor areas and areas inhabited by minorities, and has achieved a great success, but it seems a difficult task in regions where educational opportunities are limited. However, we should set a target that, by 2023, nine-year compulsory schooling should be realized and the illiteracy rate among young and middle-aged adults should be reduced to the minimum. Only in this way can China raise its national educational level.

　　An article in a newspaper once said: "As China strives to develop its western area, some effective measures should be taken to improve forestry in the region." Write an essay of about 120 words, stating what effective measures should be adopted to improve forestry in the western area.
　　「参照范文」
　　Over the past 10 years, China has made much headway in its afforestation and soil conservation. For instance, the national forest acreage has increased by 13.7 million hectares since the fourth national survey on forest resources in 1990. Despite these great achievements, some serious problems still remain to be solved such as how to improve forestry in the western area in the course of its economic development.
　　Forestry build-up in the west is a long-term task. In order to have this goal materialized, I think some concrete and effective measures should be taken immediately. For example, to protect the natural environment of the west, some previously cultivated areas should be returned to forest and grassland. In the course of improving forestry, some strict laws should made and their enforcement must be guaranteed. Those who violate forest protection laws must be severely punished. Only by taking these effective measures can forestry in the western area be improved.
(5) As is known to all, computers are becoming more and more popular in our daily life nowadays, especially in education. Write a short essay of about 120 words, describing how important computers are in education.
　　「参照范文」
　　It has turned out that computers have become quite indispensable to education. With computers, students can do their homework more quickly and more efficiently; with computers, teachers can reduce their work load and improve their teaching. For instance, computers can free teachers from certain kinds of time-consuming bookkeeping; help teachers "bank" test items, thus greatly reducing the time required to produce a new test, and mark test papers. More importantly, they can analyze test results, indicating to the teacher which points may need further treatment in class. They can also make it possible for a teacher in the classroom to give individual attention to students who are having trouble in their studies. While the rest of a class is working on an educational program, the teacher can take the time to work directly with a student who is falling behind. So it goes without saying that computers are extremely important in education at all levels.
(6) Below is a bar graph showing the causes of fire in a city. Look at the graph and write an essay of about 120 words making reference to the following points.
　　1. bad results caused by fire
　　2. the causes of fire
　　3. How to prevent fire?
　　「参照范文」
　　Fires and Causes
　　From the table, it is clear, fires bring great disasters to us. More and more people are killed and houses including many valuable things are burnt out. Fires are threatening to our lives and wealth.
　　Look at the bar graphs we can see there are mainly three causes of fires. 40% are caused by cigarette ends which people carelessly throw away, while 25% are started by the leakage of gas pots and 15% results from the children who play with matches.
　　Fires can be prevented if we take necessary measures. The key measure is to educate people to be careful to make fires, warn the children of the danger of playing with matches. Though we cannot avoid fires completely, we can reduce the fire disasters
(7) Below are two graphs showing the changing of the working hours per week in China from 1980 to 2023 and the changing of working days per week from 1994 until now. Look at the graph and write an essay of about 120 works making reference to the following points:
　　1. the changing of the working hours per week in China from 1980 to 2023
　　2. the changing of working days per week from 1994 until now
　　3. the way the Chinese people use their leisure time
　　Hours worked 1980～2023　　Weekdays worked 1949～2023
　　「参照范文」
　　Leisure Time in China
　　From the graphs we can see that Chinese people now have freer time and holidays than they did before. The average working hours per week decreased from 50 hours in 1980 to 40 hours in 2023, and non-manual workers tend to have a rather shorter week, averaging about 37 hours. In addition, full-time workers now have totally about 120 holidays a year, about one third of the days of the year.
　　Since the reform and open policy was carried out, Chinese people have had more time to spend on various kinds of leisure activities. A lot of people love both to play and to watch team sports like basketball or football. Many people stay at home having a rest, reading books, watching TV, and so on. In recent years, more and more people love to travel during longer holidays. They go to visit some scenic and historical sites, and some people even make a tour abroad to see the world.

(9) Below is a chart showing the global water supply. Write an essay of about 120 words making references to the following points:
　　1) describe the percentage of different kinds of water supply of the world;
　　2) analyze the current situation of fresh water on earth;
　　3) give the possible reasons for this situation.
　　「参照范文」
　　Water is a precious resource. Although we are surrounded by it in oceans, lakes, rivers and streams, our supply is limited. The chart given shows that most of the water on earth — 97.4 percent — is salt water stored in oceans. Only 2.6 percent of the earth's water is fresh water, and 2 percent is locked up in ice caps and glaciers. Thus the fresh water left for us to use is only 0.6 percent of the total water supply.
　　There will never be any more fresh water than there is now. In fact, the earth is short of fresh water. Besides, the increasing growth of the world population, the growing demand of industry for water, the serious pollution of our environment — all this makes the world in danger of running out of fresh water. In some large cities such as Tianjin, fresh water cannot meet the daily needs.
　　Since water is essential to all life and the supply limited, we must manage it intelligently and carefully.
