that.However/but/nevertheless,.When asked about the biggest problem today,many people say that it is the serious energy crisis.They are afraid that the world will soon run out of oil and run short of food.However,I hold an optimistic view:I just regard it as a natural result of the economic development and believe it will be only solved with further advances in economy and technology.20.一对立法 There is a controversy nowadays about the problem of.Those who object to it believe thatBut people who are in favor of,on the other hand,maintain that There is a general debate on the campus today over the phenomenon of college students doing a part-time job.Those who object to it maintain that students should not spend their precious time in this way.But people who advocate it,on the other hand,claim that,by taking a major-related part-time job or summer job,students cannot only improve their academic studies,but gain much experience,which they will never be able to get from the textbooks.For my part,I agree to the latter opinion due to the following three reasons.21.一对立法lIt is commonly believed that.But I doubt it is a satisfactory explanation/solution.lWhen it comes to,the opposition voice point to drawbacks.Supporters,on the other hand,contend thatlMany people believe that.However,there is little evidence/it is questioned/doubted thatlSupporter-opponentlOpposition voice-supportive opinionlPeople who advocate/favor-people who oppose to/object to 22.Good samplelThere is some agreement nowadays that reading is not as necessary as it once was.Radio and especially television have taken over many of the functions served by print.Admittedly,television serves some of these functions extremely well;the visual communication of news events,for example,has enormous impact.But it may be seriously questioned whether the advent of modern communications media has much enhanced our intellectual skills.23.Good sampleoThere are many different opinions on the best way to reduce crime.The traditional solution is to be hard on criminals and put them in prison for a very long time.An opposing view is expressed by people with more modern ideas.They think that education and community work are the long-term solutions to cutting crime.So who is right-the traditionalists or the modernists?24.二现象法(report常用)In recent years,many countries/people have faced/seen/troubled with/experienced/witnessed/undergone the serious problem of/(acute shortage of/alarming increase in)Drug abuse among young people has become more and more prevalent in recent years,which pose a lethal threat to the well-being of the society and families as a whole.What the reasons are for this and what can be done to combat it have aroused deep concern.25.sample A person living in the twenty-first century has seen many changes take place in almost all areas of human life.Some people are excited by the challenges that these changes offer;others long to return to the simpler,less automated life style of the past.Living in the twenty-first century has certain advantages,such as a higher standard of living,but it also has some disadvantages,such as a polluted environment,the depersonalization of human relationships,and the weakening of spiritual values.26.现象法 There is a growing tendency(to/in/that)general belief(in/that)nation-wide recognition(of/that)general awareness(of/that)deep concern(over/for/that)great demand for growing enthusiasm for (Nowadays/currently/recently)There is a growing concern over the heavy burden,both academic and psychological,that our children have to bear.27.sampleoA much debated issue these days is whether citizens should take out private health insurance or not.The cost of providing free medical care for both the wealthy and poor is far too great for any government.In this essay,I will argue that all who can afford it should be insured,but free medical care must be made available for those too poor to do so.28.Good sampleoTelevision is the most popular form of entertainment in many households.People of all ages use this medium to entertain themselves for an average of four hours a day.Thus,television has had a tremendous influence on its viewers,especially children.Scientists now say that children can be adversely affected by constantly watching television.This is due to the fact that they participate less in physical activities,spend less time reading and studying,and see a world of violence that affect their own feelings of security.29.Good sampleoMetropolitan city is full of charm and scenic beauty,so visitors from around the world come to enjoy its famous theaters,museums,countless ethnic restaurants,and scenic wonders.Although metropolitan city seems like a paradise,it is not,for the city has several serious problems:poor public transportation,congested streets,and expensive housing.30.比较法 For years/until recently.had been(seen/viewed/regarded)as But(that is changing now/people are taking a fresh look at it).With the(growing)(demand for/interest in/concern over),people.For years,womens domain have been considered in the kitchen and laundry.But that is changing now.With the growing awareness and constant fighting for equal rights,women are no longer regarded as the“weaker sex”.31.Good sampleoFor centuries,people have fantasized that someday machines could have intelligence like mankind and work as faithful servants.Today this dream has come true in many fields thanks to rapid development in artificial intelligence research.Wonderful as this seems,machines have problems.32.Good sampleoRecent advances in the fields of medicine and biotechnology have brought about situations that could scarcely be imagined only a generation ago,such as exact duplicates of animals can be made.While such scientific achievements may ultimately benefit mankind,they have also created complex legal and ethical issues.33.观点法oI believe that child-rearing should be the responsibility of both parents and that,whilst the roles within that partnership may be different,they are nevertheless equal in importance.In some societies,it has been made easier over the years for single parents to raise children on their own.However,this does not mean that the traditional family,with both parents providing emotional support and role-models for their children,is not the most satisfactory way of bringing up children.34.引用法 One of the great (men/writers/philosophers/scientists)(said/wrote/remarked)that.One of the great ancient philosopher said,“give me a fish,and I will eat for a day;teach me to fish,and I will eat for a lifetime.”Such concept is still used by teachers in contemporary society and it convinced me that teachers could not be replaced by computer learning.35.故事法 Once upon a time there was.The(tale/story)may be(unbelievable/unreal),but(it still has a realistic significance/its underlying moral has continuing relevance)(today).Once upon a time there was a girl called Cinderella,poor and disrespected by her stepmother and sisters,turned out to be the princess of the country.The tale may be unreal,but it still has a realistic significance.That is,do not look at a person only from his origin or appearance.36.问题法 (Should/What)?Opinions of/attitudes toward vary widely.Some regard/view it as,others argue/believe/claim that.Should a scientist be responsible for his discoveries?Opinions vary widely/greatly./Opinions are sharply divided./Opinions vary from person to person.To some people,the function of the scientist in society is to supply knowledge and he neednt concern himself with the uses to which his knowledge or discoveries may be put.But others argue that a scientist has a duty to make sure that his discovery is used for,not against,society.37.问题法 It is indeed the case that most countries have seen an increase in crime over recent years.The underlying causes of this rise are complex and not easily analyzed.What are some of the factors involved,and what action can governments take to prevent further increase?38.问题+对立oWill the Three Gorges Project prove to be a monumental achievement or nothing more than a giant fiasco?Opposition voices point to drawbacks such as the massive cost of the project,the need to relocate millions of local residents and destruction of the unique natural environment.Supporters,on the other hand,contend that the advantages,like improved flood control,increased power generation capacity,and desirable impact on economic development in related areas,will far outweigh the disadvantages.Time will tell and history will judge the wisdom of the project.39.Practice oShould cigarette smoking be prohibited?40.Examples of an introductionoShould cigarette smoking be prohibited?NoAs economy and societydevelop,a growing number of people are paying attention to their health,so many of them deny smoking because they believe it is harmful to their health.However,in my opinion,at least two benefits can be gained in cigarette industry.41.Examples of an introduction As economy and society develop,competition has become increasingly fierce,so many people smoke to relieve the pressure from their work.But in my opinion,smoking is harmful at least in three aspects.Should cigarette smoking be prohibited?yes42.
