3、ship with my parents. They have supported me, given me necessary criticism, and taught me a great deal about how to live my life. Parents can be very important teachers in our lives; yet, they may not serve as the best teachers. Firstly, parents may be too close to their children emotionally. Someti

4、mes they can only see their children through the eyes of a protector. For example, they may limit a child“s activity for the purpose of safety. A teacher might think that a trip to a big city is a valuable experience for the young while in the parents“ eyes it may mean danger. Another problem is tha

5、t parents want their children to develop according to what they have arranged for them. They may force their children to learn what they are interested. If they love science, they will ask their child to love science too. But what if their child“s true love is art, or writing, or car repair? Parents

6、 are usually eager to pass on their value to their children. But should children always believe what their parents believe in? Maybe different generations need different ways of thinking. When children are young, they believe that their parents are always right. But when they get older, they realize

7、 there are other views. Sometimes parents, especially older ones, can“t keep up with rapid social and technological changes. A student who has friends of all different races and backgrounds at school may find that her parents don“t really understand or value the digital revolution. The most importan

8、t thing to realize is that we all have many teachers in our lives. Our parents teach us, our teachers teach us, and our classmates can teach us as well. Books and newspapers and television also teach us.2.“Is Self-Confidence the Most Important Factor for Success?“（分数：16.00）_正确答案：()解析：Self-confidence

9、 is one very important factor for success, but there are two other equally important factors: knowledge and sensitivity. All three are basic elements which contribute to a successful career and a happy lifetime as well. One needs to feel one can accomplish a task. If one thinks he is incapable of do

10、ing something, he or she will not succeed. For example, if you think you are going to do poorly in an important test, you will probably do poorly. It is important to tell yourself that you can do it well. If you have confidence in yourself, you will probably do well. Even if you have a great deal of

11、 self-confidence, you won“t be able to do well without sufficient knowledge. You have to understand your subject very well. You have to work hard on the subjects or on preparation for a certain issue. With knowledge and self-confidence you have a better chance of success. In areas other than exams,

12、you will need to be sensitive to your surroundings, to your co-workers, and even to such minor things as a smile to a cleaner. You will need to know whether you should talk or keep silent; you will need to know whether you should take the lead or let others. This is a difficult skill to learn, but a

13、n important one for success. These three qualities, self-confidence, knowledge, and sensitivity will help us to accomplish our life goal and as well as help to create a harmonious society. Alone, none of these factors will help you succeed. But together, they ensure success.3.“The Effects of Televis

14、ion and Movies“（分数：17.00）_正确答案：()解析：There is no doubt that watching television and movies can affect the way that people think and behave. Moreover, it seems that people are spending more and more their spare time watching some sort of visual entertainment, such as television programs, videotape or

15、a DVD. Therefore, the effects of visual media cannot be neglected. One obvious effect of these media is that watching them induces people to buy certain products. Television advertising is widespread and, nowadays, even movie theaters present advertisements. Another way that TV and the movies have i

16、nfluence on people is that they give people either a broader view of the world or a distorted one, depending on what type of program they watch. By watching news and educational program can learn many new things while those who watch primarily entertainment shows may come to believe that most people

17、 in the world possess great wealth and good looks. In this way it may make people become dissatisfied with their own lives. Another important effect of those visual media is that perhaps the most susceptible viewers are children, who may be unable to tell fact from fiction and may try to imitate act

18、s that they see on TV or in the movies. Eventually they may become violent or inhabited and become the victims of those visual media. With the ever-increasing popularity of visual media entertainment, the whole society must pay attention to these effects. Television and movies, while entertaining an

19、d informative, cannot take the place of real life experience.4.“The Sand Is Advancing.“（分数：17.00）_正确答案：()解析：As is often broadcast in the radio or reported by TV report, we all know that the desert is advancing towards cities. What can we do to prevent the advancement of the sand? There is close rela

20、tionship between desert and people. We build dams, cut down trees, block waters, so the nature is responding to our deeds. The desert is expanding at an alarming speed. People are fleeing from greedy sand hills. As the sand advances, we retreat. Certainly the sand expansion should be stopped. We sho

21、uld return to the places where we have cut down trees. We should replant tress there. We should bring back what is originally there; even it is just a piece of rock, a drop of water etc. Also we should stop doing anything harmful to the environment. Our soil should be conserved. As we advance, the s

22、and retreats. The best way to fight back the greedy desert is that we should publicize the danger of desert expansion. We should teach not only children to protect our mother nature, but also the adults, and the businessmen. No one is allowed to make profits by harming the environment. We should set

23、 about the task of planting trees to reclaim the land and make it fertile.5.“The Media and Celebrities“（分数：17.00）_正确答案：()解析：A great deal of attention has been focused on the personal lives of celebrities on television in newspapers and magazines, and on the Internet. It seems that the public can nev

24、er have enough of this kind of news. However, I believe that the media have a responsibility to present a balanced view of the world, as well as respect the lives of those famous people. Therefore, I believe that the media should not pay too much attention to the personal lives of those people. For

25、people who are fascinated with the lives of public figures there are some forms of media devoted exclusively to this topic. They can satisfy their curiosity by buying fan magazines and watching TV shows devoted to entertainment news. The general media should present all types of information because

26、people have different interests. Furthermore, the practice of dwelling on the private lives of celebrities can direct people“s attention to these matters than they otherwise would. Perhaps most importantly, the media should respect the privacy of every individual, including those celebrities. They m

27、ay have chosen to be in the public eye, but that does not give the public the right to know everything about them. Moreover, many stories about celebrities are not true; they are only gossip reported to increase sales of magazines and other media. It is unfair to intrude into their life and sometime

28、s may mislead the public. For all of these reasons, I believe that the media should pay more attention to issues such as charity, education, social welfare other than the private lives of public figures. In this way, they can appeal to a wider audience and encourage people to concern about the socie

29、ty. To sum up it is beneficial for the media not to pay too much attention to the private lives of public figures.6.“Does Virtue Justify Corruption?“（分数：17.00）_正确答案：()解析：Recently, a former vice mayor of a small-unknown city was on corruption charges. According to the court ruling, he was charged wit

30、h taking bribes of 95000 yuan ($11700) and other illegal payments worth 100000 yuan ($12300). Found guilty, he has been sentenced to three years in jail with a live-year suspension. The penalty also includes the confiscation of 60000 yuan ($7400) worth of property. People have had different reaction

31、s and ferocious debates on his deeds and the court“s final verdict. Some people argue that he was a virtuous public official, for he had spent the majority of his bribery money on supporting needy people and public undertakings since 2002. So they believe that he should not have been convicted. At l

32、east, they claimed, his deeds were better than the corrupt officials who used bribes to purchase luxurious houses and support mistresses. However, other people hold the view that he deserves his sentence and that the punishment is too lenient given that his guilt is clear. Even though he did spend some of the bribery money on the needy, it doesn“t mean that he is clean and can escape punishment and even be forgiven.
