11、f “left-over girls“, a derogatory term to describe those single ladies above 30 years old in China. The group is increasing its size by each passing day, as more and more white-collar ladies join the rank. As I see it, the emergence of this social rank is attributed to the improved status of women a
12、nd the social progress regarding the marriage concept. First and foremost, with the hard-won gender equality in China, females are now better exposed to job opportunities than ever before. People are no longer surprised by a female judge, doctor, policewoman, and many other professions occupied by w
13、omen. They and their male counterparts enjoy equal pay in the same job. This has empowered females to be independent, without relying on their boyfriends or husbands to support them financially. With a decent income, ladies are able to buy whatever they desire and lead a life on their own terms. In
14、this regard, ladies have more say in a relationship, which might hurt the macho feelings harbored by many Chinese men. That is why they tend to avoid ladies who are earning the same money, if not more, as they do. Furthermore, the changes of marriage concept also allow more tolerance and freedom to
15、women when it comes to marriage choices. In ancient China, most of marriages were notoriously arranged by parents who bad no regard for their children, especially daughters. As the society evolves itself, China is now more tolerant of when and how people get married. Ladies may choose to get rid of
16、all the trivial rituals and have a western style wedding. Similarly, they can also choose not to get married even when they come of age. It is true that some of the “leftover girls“ are constantly subject to the nagging of their parents. But the good news is that ff you really want to stay out of th
17、e wedlock, your parents cannot tie the knot for you, which is invariably the norm in the old society of China. The outdated concepts of arranged marriage and “marry sooner than later“ have been eliminated by the social progress. In conclusion, we should not cry for “left-over girls“, because they ar
18、e not the abandoned girls, but loaded ladies, loaded in two sensesfinancially and spiritually. Instead, we should celebrate for “left-over girls“, because they are symbolic of the gender equality and tolerant attitude towards marriage choices. 本题属于“现象解释型”论说文，涉及的题材是“人际交往”。该题要求考生就导致“剩女”现象的原因发表个人的看法。按照

Personally, I believe that going Dutch should be encouraged among college lovers since most of them are economically dependen
23、t and going Dutch can give them a better sense of budgeting. First of all, it is better for college lovers to split their bills due to their economic dependence. As students, college lovers usually do not have much money except for the pocket money they get from their parents and a small amount of s
24、alary earned from part-time jobs. Dating, however, can be very expensive for students especially when it involves romantic restaurants and decent cinemas. It is highly likely that whoever shouldering the responsibility of financing the dates would be under great economic pressure. And since relation
25、ships in college are not usually supported by parents, college students will have to face the pressure all by themselves. This not only may cause great anxieties in both life and study for the students involved, but also would make the relationship more vulnerable because quarrels may arise, revolvi

By splitting their bills, college lovers would be able to keep clearer track of how much money they are spending indivi
27、dually instead of leaving their budget in a chaotic status, which might happen if the bills are always treated carelessly and paid randomly. When they are more aware of where their money is going, they would naturally have a better plan of spending different amount of money on different purposes. In
28、 this way, college lovers would solve the problem of wasting money and avoid unnecessary personal financial crises. They may even save more money to spend on books and extracurricular activities. In this regard, going Dutch is apparently beneficial to cultivating the students“ sense of budgeting. As
29、 a conclusion, I believe that going Dutch should be encouraged among college lovers for the sake of their economic status and budgeting skill. 本题属于“表达看法型”论说文，涉及的题材是“人际交往”。题目要求考生就是否鼓励大学恋人实行 AA 制提出个人意见。按照题目的要求型，可谋篇布局如下： 开头：由朋友 AA 制与情侣 AA 制的差别入题，提出观点支持大学情侣实行 AA 制。 主体：分两方面阐述。 1大学情侣最好实行 AA 制，因为他们并没有实现经济独

Thanks to the Internet, people are linked with each other in an unprecedentedly epic scale. Despite the legitimate c
33、oncern that people might be set apart by the Internet, I am convinced that interpersonal relationship is able to be enhanced by the Internet. First of all, the Internet enables people, despite different localities, to communicate as if they were sitting next to each other. Imagine a scenario where a
34、 son is studying in America, while his parents are .living in China. A century ago, they would endure months for the exchange of information via posts. A quarter of century ago, they would wait anxiously for the phone call to get through. Now, however, with the help of online chatting tools, they ca
35、n ease themselves into a comfortable position and enjoy chitchat to the fullest without time limitation. Because of the Internet, the family bond is strengthened, without the fear of the missed letters or high fee of international calls. What is more, the availability of the Internet allows us to ex
36、press and share our feelings, thoughts and ideas instantaneously. On online social networks, such as Facebook and Sina micro blog, we are connected to more friends than ever before. If you are angry with the bad service in a restaurant or overjoyed by an amusing film, you simply tweet your feelings
37、and your friends can immediately share the anger or the fun with you. You don“t have to reserve your emotion and save it until the tea party scheduled on a Saturday afternoon. Such instant interaction is surely very convenient and helps to strengthen the friendship. Last but not least, the Internet
38、not only ties friends closer, but also promotes communication between people of differing cultures and beliefs. With the advent of online communities, users can exchange their thought with a particular group of people, meet like-minded people, and make new friends. Through conversing with people fro
39、m various geographic locations, users become more tolerant of different ideologies, which helps to reduce friction in social occasions.

41、时候都多的朋友交友比以往都多；而且我们可以随时分享自己的感受，不必憋住自己的情感而无法宣泄。 3指出对网络还可以让人们结交有共同兴趣的好友，与处于不同文化和地域的人交流，从而减少不同意识形态的差异。 结尾：重申观点，网络无处不在，使让网络联系你我，还是让网络使我们彼此疏远，决定权都在我们手上。4.Single Child独生子女 According to some experts and employers, many young employees with a single-child background have a hard time adapting to the society

43、确答案：()解析：范文 On “Strawberry Generation“The enactment of “One Child“ policy was meant to curb the soaring population in China. It is a pity that the by-product of this policy was a generation of spoiled children, or sometimes mocked as the “strawberry generation“. In my opinion, it is the overmuch aff
44、ection of parents and the relationship vacuum that cause this fragile generation. First of all, parents are inclined to put all their love on the only child they have in the family. Unlike the. generations before the “One Child“ policy, many parents now take care of only one child. Naturally, they d
45、evote all their time and energy to the “Prince“ or “Princess“ in the family. The much beloved child gradually tends to regard parents as his/her servants, who do the son“s biddings or run errands for the daughter. There is a satirical saying in China which goes like this, “those single children have
46、 only to open their mouths to be fed and hold out their hands to be dressed“. If a child grows up in a family where everything is done and prepared by parents, it will be very difficult for him to cope with the challenges and pressures by himself. What a sad picture it is! No matter how considerate
47、parents are, a child still has to stand on his own feet one day. Therefore, parents should spare more room for their child to learn to be independent instead of spoiling him. Furthermore, children from a “one-child“ family are usually over protected by their parents, and are stuck in a relationship vacuum. Decades ago, kids in the neighborhood roamed in the streets, played foo
