12、. You should supply an appropriate title for your essay. （分数：20.00）_正确答案：()解析：范文 The Internet Is Not the End of the AcademiaAs what history has repeatedly shown to us, new technologies always stir controversies as they bring conveniences and benefits. The concern that the Internet will hinder the de
13、velopment of problem-solving ability by making things too easy has indeed a justifiable motive. However, upon careful consideration, it can be argued that such worry is unnecessary. As far as I see it, the Internet won“t worsen students“ problem-solving abilities. First of all, the Internet won“t ca
14、use the deterioration of students“ problem-solving ability because it is hardly omnipotent. The Internet provides a quicker and more efficient option of problem-solving for students, but it doesn“t apply to all problems. Google, for example, may be helpful when students are trying to search for back
15、ground information or browse through studies by other people, but it may prove unhelpful when, say, a student attempts to tackle one particular issue in his experiment. Although Google has definitely made things easier for students, it does not complete the whole research process for them. In other
16、words, even when students are solving a lot of problems by using Google, they will still have to deal with the unique, original and in most cases most significant ones by themselves. Hence worrying that the Internet will worsen students“ problem-solving ability is simply worrying too much. Secondly,
17、 the Internet actually trains students“ ability of problem-solving since it pushes them to be more original and innovative. Nowadays, there are very strict rules concerning cribbing in higher learning institutes. And although the Internet provides more sources for students than ever before, they hav
18、e to use it with great caution because they will be accused of cribbing if their works resemble any of the works found on the Internet. It is then clear that the Internet in fact adds pressure for the students because study results of other people are available to all: not only students, but also te
19、achers and supervisors. To accomplish their study, students will have to be able to skim through and screen different materials, and try to come up with more differentiated findings. In this manner, students will naturally sharpen their skills of sorting out information and developing their own idea
20、s upon the materials concerned. As Newton so rightly puts it, “If I have been able to see further, it was only because I stood on the shoulders of a giant“. The Internet is not the end of the academia, but rather a shoulder for us to stand on to see more and see further. The worry that the Internet
21、may worsen students“ problem-solving ability is unnecessary. 本题属于“支持与反对型”论说文，涉及的题材是“校园学习”。该题要求考生就“网络是否使学生解决问题的能力下降”提出个人的看法。按照题目的要求，可谋篇布局如下： 开头：提出个人观点：互联网并不会降低学生解决问题的能力。 主体：分两方面阐述。 1互联网不会导致学生解决问题能力的降低，因为它并不全能。即便学生用谷歌能解决许多问题，对于那些新的、独特的也往往是最重要的问题，他们还是得自行解决。 2互联网实际上能锻炼学生解决问题的能力，因为它让学生变得更具创新能力。由于有剽窃机制的制约
22、，学生得浏览和甄别各种信息，然后得出自己与众不同的结论。这样学生能锻炼筛选信息的能力以及基于现有材料的独立思考能力。 结尾：引用牛顿的名言作结。2.Limited Use of Computers for College Freshmen限制大学新生使用电脑 In some universities in China, computers in the dormitories are not allowed for freshmen, because the school authorities fear that the newly-enrolled students have diffic

24、 for FreshmenSome universities in China prohibit freshmen from using computers in their dormitories, for fear that they might develop the Internet addiction. This ban is received by most students with opposition and resentment I personally, however, welcome this ban on the use of computers in dormit
25、ories during the freshman year. For starters, the existence of computers in a dormitory might obstruct students“ effective time management. The first year in college is a period of orientation during which students get accustomed to independent living and learning, making sense of university educati
26、on and thus working out a schedule for the rest of the four years. Computers can serve as an efficient tool speeding up the process of academic research. If not properly used, however, they can aggravate procrastination, the thief of time. Your initial reason for logging online is to conduct some su
27、rvey for a report due the next day, but then you get carried away by a newly released movie and your friends“ updates on Tweeter or Microblog. Before you know it, two hours have passed, leaving nothing but blankness in your Word file. The second and most obvious danger of computers is the emission o
28、f health-threatening radiation. As mentioned above, once you turn on a computer, time seems to fleet away without you noticing it. Students easily caught in the Web are likely to spend half a day or even a whole day in front of this radiant machine, motionless except for a brief trip to the bathroom
29、 or reaching for snacks. This is especially true for the freshmen, who just get unlimited amount of time and freedom to deal with. By and by, unhealthy living habits such as prolonged sitting, excessive eating and lack of sleep are formed among the freshmen. Apart from jeopardizing physical health,
30、computers are also responsible for the production of indoorsy people. Infatuated with animations, online video games and social networks, indoorsy people seldom leave the house unless they run out of food or other necessities, which will gradually dull their social skills. The longer hours one spend
31、s on a computer, the less he/she is able to achieve successful communications with a real person. It“s therefore important that first-year students be liberated from this “cyber dependence“ and encouraged to go outside and expand their life circles. When young people first set foot in a university,
32、everything appears fresh and novel to them. It will be partially the school“s responsibility to keep them in a real world, not lost in a virtual one. 本题属于“支持与反对型”论说文，涉及的题材是“校园学习”。该题要求考生就“是否赞成限制大一新生在宿舍使用电脑”提出个人的看法。按照题目的要求，可谋篇布局如下： 开头：提出个人观点：赞成这一禁令。 主体：分三方面阐述。 1在宿舍里使用电脑会影响学生进行有效的时间管理。大学一年级是适应期，在这段时间里，
33、我们应学会独立的生活和学习，不要把时间荒废在电脑前。 2长时间使用电脑会对身体造成影响。进入大学后，会感觉时间和自由变多了，若一头扎进电脑里，久而久之，就会养成久坐不动、暴食和熬夜等不良习惯。 3电脑也是导致宅男、宅女一族产生的原因之一。大学新生若沉迷电脑，他们的社交能力也被钝化。因此，我们应当把大学新生从这种“网络依赖”中解放出来，鼓励他们走出房门，多交朋友。 结尾：学校有责任将他们留在真实的世界，避免他们迷失在虚拟空间。3.Should Students Take Cosmetic Surgery?学生应不应该进行整形手术?

Others believe that this testifies to the shallowness of students in China. What is your opinion? Should
35、high school and college students take cosmetic surgery? Write an essay of about 400 words. You should supply an appropriate title for your essay. （分数：20.00）_正确答案：()解析：范文 Beauty Is Only Skin-deepIt is a truth universally acknowledged that the desire for beauty is the nature of all human beings. Such
36、desire is reflected in the rise of cosmetic surgery in recent years. For students in their immature and vulnerable years, however, cosmetic surgery may not be a wise choice since there are certain risks in taking such surgery and beauty is not just about physical appearance. In a word, I do not thin
37、k high school and college students should take cosmetic surgery. The first reason of my belief is that cosmetic surgery is not entirely safe. Each surgery has its particular risks and side effects, which, though perhaps made clear to the patient beforehand, may not be a point of concern of inexperie
38、nced and curiosity-driven young people. This makes the surgery a potential threat to the health of youngsters. Furthermore, since young people usually do not have much money and might not be supported by their parents to take cosmetic surgery, they are inclined to choose small or even illegal clinic
39、s to take the surgery. This may also harm the well-being of young people as a whole. Putting the above two points into consideration, students should not take cosmetic surgery at the risk of their health. Additionally, the interpretation of “beauty“ is multiple. Students should not be too obsessed w
40、ith their physical appearance or regard it as the only way of defining beauty. A kind heart and a fine taste are also two alternative indicators of beauty, or specifically inner beauty. What is more, inner beauty is more valuable than outer beauty, as inner beauty is much harder to be acquired. For
41、instance, you can take cosmetic surgery to boost your nose, but there is no clinical procedure available to transform you from a nasty person into a nice one. Even if you have an attractive appearance, you are at best good-looking. In order to be really beautiful, you should also have a good-natured
42、 heart. Therefore, if high-school and college students take cosmetic surgery prematurely, they are confining themselves to the superficial understanding of beauty, without giving full attention to the inner beauty which deserves more credits. To sum up, high school and college students should not ta
43、ke cosmetic surgery because of the high risk of health and the low-mindedness of narrow definition of beauty. As the famous saying goes, “beauty is only skin-deep“. Older people should guide the young to form an informed and mature decision. 本题属于“表达看法型”论说文，涉及的题材是“校园学习”。题目要求考生对高中生及大学生整容发表个人意见。按照题目的要求
44、，可谋篇布局如下： 开头：提出观点应该限制高中生和大学生接受整形手术。 主体：分两方面阐述原因。 1整形手术并不完全安全。整形手术有风险，但学生未必能充分理解；学生收入不多，而且可能难获父母资助，因此要到小的诊所甚至非法诊所整形。 2对“美丽”的诠释也是多样的。内在美比外在美更有价值。 结尾：重申观点，引用名言，指出高中生和大学生整容不可取。4.Is Going to College Worth It?上大学值不值?
