8、n away by a forklift, while a passer-by is wondering where he can buy newspapers afterwards. Should newsstands be abandoned? Obviously, the answer is no. With the development of science and technology, e-books have been gaining increasing popularity in the past years. As a result, the newsstand play
9、s a less important role in our life. But as far as I“m concerned, the newsstand shouldn“t be abandoned. First and foremost, people who don“t know how to use Internet and smart phones still read newspapers. If the newsstands were abandoned, where could they buy newspapers? Besides, there is no denyin
10、g that newsstands have brought us much convenience in our daily life.

13、ides some data regarding the risks of fresh university graduates“ self-employment. As listed in this chart, the most serious risk is lack of fund, which is as high as 31%. Difficulty in marketing and lack of experience in business management rank the second and the third, accounting for 25% and 20%
14、respectively. Besides, there are also some other risks, such as inadequate technological expertise, etc. As for the top three risks, they all have their own reasons. First of all, newly graduated students don“t have enough startup capital, which generally comes from their parents. It is difficult to
15、 get bank loan and venture investment. Secondly, campus is usually called ivory tower, in which students develop few social connections. This increases the difficulty of marketing. In the end, what university students have learned is mostly book learning and they are short of practical experience. H
16、owever, during the startup stage, business experience largely outweighs book learning. In summary, there are potential risks in fresh university graduates“ self-employment. Therefore, those who want to start a business should think carefully before action.3.For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes

18、0）_正确答案：()解析：参考范文 Analysis of Annual Household Consumption ExpenditureThe pie chart on the percentage of Chinese household consumption expenditure in 2012 shows that food accounts for as high as 41%. Clothing and housing rank the second and the third with 13% and 11% respectively. The percentages of
19、 health care, education and recreation, and transportation and communication are similar, surpassing that of household equipment and items. We can read a lot from the chart. Firstly, clothing, food and housing still play very important roles in Chinese people“s daily life, of which food is the most
20、important. Secondly, a lower figure of Engel“s Coefficient, namely, the percentage of food consumption expenditure, reflects a higher standard of living. Thirdly, the fact that the percentages of health care, education and recreation, and transportation and communication exceed that of household equ
21、ipment and items shows that people“s consumption concept has changedpeople care more about their life quality. It can be foreseen that the percentage of food consumption expenditure will decrease gradually with the increase of people“s living standard. On the contrary, the percentages of other items
22、 will increase, especially health care, education and recreation, and transportation and communication.4.For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Eat Healthily based on the statistics provided in the graph below .

Snacks like cand
24、y, cookies and pretzels are well loved by both boys and girls. Although fruits are girls“ favorite, boys dislike them most. Besides, neither boys nor girls like eating vegetables. There are a number of reasons for such food preferences. Firstly, chips and chocolate bars taste good and can be bought
25、everywhere at a cheap price, which also explains why other snacks are much loved. Secondly, girls“ love of fruits is partly because of their need to keep a good appearance and a good shape. On the contrary, boys“ dislike of fruits is mostly because they think it too troublesome to eat fruits. Thirdl
26、y, vegetables“ lowest ranking may be partly explained by its mild taste. This graph reveals the problems that lie in youth“s food preferences.

Please give a brief description of the pie chart first and then make comments on it. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words. （分数：20.00）
28、_正确答案：()解析：参考范文 Cut Down Your Time OnlineThis is a pie chart on free time management of teenagers. Teenagers spend more than half of their spare time surfing the Internet. Only 36% of their free time is allotted to reading. Little time is spent on doing sports and playing musical instruments, which
29、account for 8% and 3% respectively. It can be clearly seen that teenagers spend too much of their spare time surfing the Internet. They may be indulged in video games, chatting with their friends or even shopping online, which would distract them from their academic study and accordingly reduce the
30、time for reading. Teenagers should spend more time reading, which can help improve their literacy and broaden their horizon. Meanwhile, doing sports and playing musical instruments would also benefit teenagers both physically and mentally. All in all, teenagers should manage their spare time effectively by cutting down their time online and fostering hobbies beneficial to their body and mind.
