4、d about 40 minutes on this task.（分数：2.00）_解析：2.Do the problems brought by international travel outweigh the advantages?（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案： Today, many people prefer to spend holidays in foreign countries, and increasingly more nations are opening their doors to welcome foreign visitors. Generally,

5、 I think it is a good thing. For visitors, travelling to another country can be eye-opening and rewarding. In foreign places, people get the chance to learn about various customs, lifestyles and rituals, so they tend to be more broad-minded. And journeys to places such as nature preserves or resorts

6、 are always relaxing and refreshing, which allow people to take a break from the hustle and bustle of city life. Apart from the individual benefits, many more positive influences can be easily noted. International travel undoubtedly creates more employment opportunities, adding to the revenue of the

7、 host country and increasing income of local residents. This is the very reason that it is encouraged. More importantly, international tourism helps to promote the understanding between different nations or ethnic groups. During their travel in an alien country, tourists may find its people are unex

8、pectedly hospitable and friendly and vice versa. From a long-term point of view, some people might be concerned that if foreign visitors swarm into a country in unsustainable amounts, it may be damaging to the preservation of local culture in terms of religion, language or some customs. This could b

9、e true to some extent, but the obvious merits brought by international tourism clearly outweigh its disadvantages, and rules and regulations have already been taken by many countries to minimise its negative impacts on both local residents and their communities. So overall, I believe in this age of

10、globalisation people and nations all benefit from the development of the international tourist industry in general.)解析：3.Several languages die out every year. Some people do not think it is important and say that our life will be simpler with fewer languages. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

11、（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案： According to some statistics, half the worlds 6800 languages are likely to die out within two generationsthat is one language would vanish every ten days. am sure that this is a curse rather than a blessing for our society, especially in the long run. Some people might argue th

12、at fewer languages will make life much simpler and more convenient, for we do not have to bother to adopt a totally new tongue or employ a translator or an interpreter to understand people from other nations. This could be true especially when cost-effectiveness and convenience are mainly considered

13、. However, it is far from true when we take other side-effects into consideration as well. At the very last, extinction of various tongues is obviously a heavy loss to the study of languageslinguistics, which relies on comparisons between languages, if some minority languages die out, especially tho

14、se without any recorded form, they will be forever lost to science. A more significant point that should be noted is that to be simple means to be monotonous. If languages, especially the minority ones, are disappearing at the current speed mentioned above, the great cultural diversity would be impo

15、ssible to preserve, for no culture would be expected to continue without its language. In such cases, most people would speak the same language and think in a similar way; consequently, critical thinking would be a strange thing to people. And with diverse cultures and traditions lost, national iden

16、tities might be blurred and monotonousness and dullness might result, which is never the consequence desired by anyone today. In conclusion, the dying out of languages is indeed a huge loss to the cultural diversity of the world today, and there is no way of compensation at all. So I think it is tim

17、e individuals and governments alike should make a move to try to preserve the current languages we still have.)解析：4.Some people say that giving aid to poor countries has more negative effects than positive ones. To what extent do you agree or disagree?（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案： In this age of globalisati

18、on, nations are more closely bonded than ever before. So it is quite common for rich countries to give international aid to the more impoverished ones. The positive sides of this practice are easily noted. With foreign investment, there tends be more chances of employment in less developed places, w

19、hich means more income for the local people and greater social stability for the local communities. More direct benefits can also be noticed in the fields of education and medical care. As a result of medical donations, and some dedicated medical teams in particular, some prevalent diseases have bee

20、n controlled or eradicated in several poor nations. And with the support of educational resources from developed countries, more schools have been set up in impoverished countries, so people there have more accesses to education, which actually helps to promote the development of those places in the

21、 long run. On the other hand, people who claim giving aid is more of a curse than a blessing may argue that the poorest nations are typically badly governed, where corruption, official incompetence, and the failure to protect basic property rights are capable of rendering the aid not just useless bu

22、t harmful. This is indeed a problem. However, the point here is not that we should be sceptical of the concept of international aid itself, but that the way we implement it should be improved. Overall, I am supportive of the idea that richer countries have a moral responsibility to help poor ones an

23、d this endeavour has more benefits than drawbacks and should therefore be encouraged.)解析：5.Nowadays a lot of charities and organisations have set up a number of special days to attract peoples attention, like National Childrens Day and National Non-Smoking Day. Why do they do so and what will the ef

24、fects be?（分数：2.00）_正确答案：(正确答案： I shall give reasons why some charities have used special days to attract attention to their causes and suggest what the effects of this might be. Obviously, the main thing for charities is to raise money. They have to compete with a lot of other charitable organisatio

25、ns for peoples attention and money. If one charity starts using a particular method to raise funds, other charities are likely to follow suit. So, when one charity decided to designate a particular day for a particular fund raising event, others were sure to do the same. Now, our calendar is full of

26、 them. So what are the effects of these special days? I think that most people remain ignorant of them. The exceptions might be days that are widely recognised internationally, such as AIDS day. As the aim of these special days is to raise money, an important effect has been that there are a lot of

27、public fund raising events where people cannot only give money, but also volunteer their time or find out more information about the charity and its aims. The effect of publicising the charity and its work may be of equal importance to that of raising money. As I have mentioned, charities need to co

28、mpete for attention. Of course, a main aim of the charity is to use such events to raise cash, possibly by convincing people to agree to give on a monthly basis. To conclude, I think that charities have such days to increase awareness of the charity and to raise money, but this might not always succeed when so many different charitable groups do the same thing.)解析：
