Howe

12、ver, this kind of attitude can do great harm. For instance, Fang Yan, a 23-year-old white collar worker, died of an acute stomach ulcer due to irregular eating habits and long-term stress at work. Fang“s misfortune is a wake-up call for young people, especially workaholics, that it“s crucial to stri

13、ke a balance between life and work. The first and most important step is to rectify a problematic cultural value that “work comes first“. This is a traditional belief prevalent in the Chinese society. Praises are sung to selfless heroes who dedicate their life to endless labor despite toil and hards

14、hip. Flowers are presented to devoted workers who are willing to work overtime regardless of pains and ailment. That is why we cannot identify with the western idea of “call it a day once the shift is done“. From the perspective of happiness and health, the clear-cut division between work and play i

15、s more conducive to a pleasant, efficient and well-balanced life. The second step requires young workers to adjust their attitudes accordingly. In a society that is galloping at full speed with ever-increasing pressure, young people feel the need not just to catch up with but also to stay ahead in t

16、he competition. As an only-child generation, they assume the responsibility to provide for the family and make their parents proud. In pursuit of limitless ambitions, their limited time of youth is consumed and depleted. Only by lifting these burdens off their shoulders can they be able to relax and

17、 let it be. In the mean time, young people should also rearrange their schedules. Apart from keeping a healthy and regular diet, they should remember to take their mind off work once leaving the office. “All work and no play make Jack a dull boy“ is the golden rule to stick to. It is important to de

18、velop hobbies and friendships to relieve occasional stress and loneliness. If a job exhausts you, pause for a while. Life is not all about work. The criterion of a successful life is being about to enjoy the fun of work as well as delights outside of work. In a word, health and youth are invaluable

19、assets, not for us to exploit, but to cherish while they are still in our possession. We can work for many jobs after all but we all live for once. 本题属于“表达看法型”论说文，涉及的题材是“社会生活”。题目要求考生就当下出现的一些年轻白领因工作压力而英年早逝的现象做出阐释，并就如何平衡工作与生活提出方法。按照题目的要求，可谋篇布局如下： 开头：提出个人的观点：在工作和生活之间取得平衡是至关重要的。 主体：分三方面阐述平衡工作与压力的方法。 1纠正

20、“工作第一”这种病态价值观。划清工作和生活的界限，有利于营造愉悦、高效、平衡的生活。 2年轻人需要相应调整心态，要把“赡养父母、有所作为”的心理重担卸下，学会放松心态，让一切顺其自然。 3年轻人也应当重新安排自己的生活作息，要保持健康均衡的饮食习惯，忙里偷闲。丰富业余生活、结交好友都可以让自己的生活变得乐趣无穷。 结尾：重申观点，健康和青春是无价的资本，趁我们还拥有时，要好好珍惜。2.DIY or Not?是否自己动手?

21、ing the professionals, they procure the materials and do the decoration, the assembling and some construction work by themselves.

22、rojects among young couples? 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 The Advantages of DIYSince home furnishing materials can be easily fetched in the supermarket and simply constructed, many young couples are now able to do t

23、he home improvement by themselves. Though it is a time-consuming issue and involves a lot of physical labor, I think DIY should be encouraged, because it is a rewarding journey, promised with fun, knowledge and above all money-saving. First of all, DIY offers the pleasure that could not be found in

24、the job. Many young couples sit all day long in the offices, with their eyes glued to computer screens. DIY is an exciting contrast to this tedious routine and helps to relieve stress. Just imagine the cabinet boards you and your wife are piecing together. It is surely a great joy to do it by you bo

25、th, during which you can talk and discuss. Once the cabinet is done, I“m sure a sense of achievement will be hovering over you. Nothing can compete with a smile the one you love wears. Moreover, the experience itself provides an opportunity to improve a sense of cooperation between you, which might

26、become a source of strength and unity to enable you to tide over possible future difficulties. In other words, the physical labor involved is leading you to the right balance between life and work and a functioning relationship. Secondly, DIY rewards you with a host of knowledge of home improvement.

27、 If you pay professionals to do the decoration, it is true that you can lay back and lead a carefree life. Nevertheless, by undertaking the improvement projects yourself, you can acquaint yourself with the basic and interesting knowledge of interior design and furnishing. With this, you are no longe

28、r a couch potato, but progress into an amateur designer, carpenter, and even gardener, the skills of whom will give you a sense of achievement. Finally, and perhaps most significantly, DIY helps young couples save money. Chinese young couples have enough money-consuming issues to deal with, ranging

29、from housing to medical care and beyond. As CPI is soaring, some couples, with their moderate salaries, cannot afford great living expenses. Paying extra fees for home improvement projects might make the situation worse, and might be the last straw to break their backs. Fortunately, DIY provides an

30、alternative. With half of the price, you can purchase the furniture components and assemble it yourself. Hours of labor can save you up to thousands of RMB, which could be spent on purchasing another item. To conclude, it is fair to say that DIY is a plausible and advisable option for Chinese young

31、couples. They will find that the process is gratifying in terms of the happiness shared, the skills acquired and the money saved. 本题属于“表达看法型”议论文，涉及的题材是“社会生活”。该题要求考生就“是否鼓励自己动手来改造家居”提出意见。按照题目的要求可谋篇布局如下： 开头：简要引出观点应该鼓励年轻夫妻自己动手改造家居。 主体：分三方面阐述原因。 1自己动手能让我们找到许多乐趣。举夫妻二人组装柜子的例子，指出自己动手能促进生活和工作的平衡，并能增进感情。 2自己动

32、手能使我们增长一些关于家居改造的知识，带给我们成就感。 3自己动手能省钱。年轻夫妻肩上的压力已不少，我们应该鼓励自己动手，这样他们能省下钱，不至于让装修家居把他们压垮。 结尾：重申观点，指出自己动手能让我们分享快乐、学习技能、省下金钱。3.Talent Shows选秀节目 Ever since the upsurge of “Super Girl“, talent shows have been quite popular among Chinese audience. Despite the phenomenal response from the grass root Chinese, s

33、hows of this kind are often criticized as vulgar and profane ones. What is your opinion? Write an essay of about 400 words on the following topic: Should Talent Shows Be Restricted on TV Channels?（分数：20.00）_正确答案：()解析：范文 Should Talent Shows Be Restricted on TV Channels?An opera singing contest was he

34、ld in my hometown recently and aired on the local TV channel. It was then that I realized how talent shows had affected even this small city. Despite the valuable opportunities for potential talents, talent shows throughout the country are now churned out in the same pattern. Therefore, I believe we

35、 should restrict talent shows on TV channels. To begin with, talent shows in China usually feed on gossip and scandals instead of real talents, which exerts a negative influence on viewers. As a matter of fact, talent shows are now turned into highly-commercialized circus shows, to entertain rather

36、than to enlighten audience. “Outstanding“, for example, is a talent show on a provincial TV channel, seeking the leader of a model team. It“s apparently a lousy “parody modeled after “America“s Next Top Model“. The contestants in “Outstanding“ go all lengths to stand out, such as eating insect pupas

37、 and pulling off the dress of another contestant. It is a lengthy melodrama where contestants are directed to scheme against one another, in pursuit of a higher audience rating. Shows of this kind will only poison audience“s mind. Moreover, the popularity of talent shows has sparked off unhealthy id

38、ol worship. Many so-called fans are in fact “fans“, bought and prearranged. A friend of mine, who used to be a fan of one of the “Happy Boys“ contestants, admitted that the fan club she joined resembled a cult, where everyone was brainwashed into contributing money to the group and no criticism of t

39、he “star“ was allowed. Different support groups attacked each other by discrediting the “idol“ the other group worshiped. This distorted dynamism behind the glamour and glory on TV is an enough reason to cut down on the number of talent shows, especially those rampant singing contests. Finally, the

40、prevalence of talent shows creates a delusion of readily-available fame. Young people, who hardly keep their feet on the ground, now dream of a sudden leap to stardom. Their flames of fantasy are further fueled by overnight sensations such as Li Yuchun and Zhang Liangying, the Second generation of “

41、Super Girl“. In a talent show, ironically, not everyone is gifted. It is essential to stay realistic. What our society needs is cool-headed talents with substantial competence. In short, talent shows in China are mostly of questionable quality and misleading concepts. To improve the quality of talen

42、t shows, we should restrict the quantity and the gimmicks which have plagued the shows. 本题属于“表达看法型”论说文，涉及的题材是“社会生活”。该题要求考生就电视频道上的“选秀”节目提出自己的看法。按照题目的要求，可谋篇布局如下： 开头：清楚表达个人观点应该限制“选秀”节目。 主体：分三方面阐述原因。 1中国的选秀节目通常是以绯闻、丑闻为噱头，而不是真正展示才华，这样对观众的影响不好。举一个卫视电视台的选秀节目的例子说明其对观众的不良影响。 2选秀节目的泛滥引起不健康的偶像崇拜。举身边的例子说明一些“粉丝”

43、的盲目行为及其害处。 3选秀节目的泛滥让年轻人容易做“明星白日梦”，缺乏实干精神。 结尾：重申观点，要限制选秀节目的数量和其噱头的运用，使中国的选秀节目做得有质量且能真正带来良好影响。4.DINKs丁克族 Over the past decade, DINK (Double Incomes No Kids) has been a life style pursued by an increasing amount of westerners and has influenced people in China in recent years.

44、perfect choice for Chinese couples simply for the reason that they don“t have to bear the rising costs in tuition, medical care and so on. Others held the view that DINK goes against the Chinese culture, which considers child as an integral element of a family. What is your opinion? Should we discou

45、rage Chinese young couples to be DINKs? Write an essay of about 400 words.

46、ts to continue the family line. DINKs in China, therefore, are faced with great pressure from family and society. According to the current situation in China, however, I think we should not discourage Chinese young couples to be DINKs. Firstly, pursuing a DINK life style can spare couples the expens

47、es of raising a child. Reflected in the emergence of home mortgage slaves, card slaves and car slaves are the soaring living costs in China. What holds couples further in bondage is the birth of a child. Baby formula, diapers, tuition fees from kindergarten to college, medical care and insurance, all take a large amount of money. It“s as if the apple of your eyes was gouging
