14、he importance of diligence outweighs that of talent. In learning a foreign language, I think it is still true: talent is less important than hard work. Hard work keeps us on the ground, while talent tends to make us self-satisfied and lazy. To master a foreign language, we need to have sufficient ex

15、posure to the language, which means hours and hours of effort put into it. We might listen to 10,000 hours of materials until we have no difficulty in communicating with a native speaker. We might read extensively before we are able to read native newspapers with ease “Practice makes perfect“ This a

16、ged-old saying is particularly true in learning a foreign language. Talented people may be less inclined to sharpen their linguistic skills in a hardheaded manner. They would presume that they will get the same result with half of the effort, so they spend less time in reading and listening. At the

17、first stage, probably talent could help them memorize a word or mimic a native pronunciation much quicker than the less talented people. But ultimately, their tricks will run out of effect, because hard effort cannot be replaced by mere talent. In conclusion, the best scenario is to have both talent

18、 and hard work. If not, we should work harder. As Thomas Edison said, “There is no substitute for hard work“. 【试题解析】 本题属于 “立场选择型 ”作文，涉及的题材是 “文化教育 ”。该题要求考生对 “天赋是否是学习外语的一个重要因素 ”提出个人的意见。按照题目的要求，可谋篇布局如下： 第一段：从爱因斯坦的名言入题，指出学习一门外语，努力比天赋更重要。 第二段：阐述原因。努力可以让我们脚踏实地，而天赋会让我们变得沾沾自喜而且懒惰。有天赋的人以为自己能事半功倍，因此他们花较少的时间去读

19、、去听。但是天赋是无法取代努力的。 第三段：引用爱迪生的话重申观点 “努力无可替代 ”。 【知识模块】 作文 2 【正确答案】 Should Universities Accept Equal Numbers of Male and Female Students? I study in a university specialized in language majors and I am often envied that I am surrounded by beautiful girls. “You have an eyes feast!“ My friend would say. A

20、ctually, despite the predominant presence of female students in my university, I still think that universities should not accept equal number of boys and girls. First of all, a forced equal ratio of boys and girls will lead to greater inequality. For example, as we expect it, girls tend to have bett

21、er linguistic skills than boys. If universities for language studies are required to enroll equal number of male and female students, many girls who are actually good at languages will be replaced by mediocre male language learners. This is virtually a more serious unfair treatment for female studen

22、ts. Secondly, we should educate our students according to their potentials, not their genders. When we place students into different classes or majors, we should consider their motivation, aptitude and possibilities. Enforcing an equal ratio policy is actually focusing on a trivial gender issue and

23、forgetting the bigger picture of the education principle. In conclusion, when male and female students present their talents to universities, they should be embraced, regardless of their sex. 【试题解析】 本题属于 “立场选择型 ”作文，涉及的题材是 “文化教育 ”。该题要求考生对 “大学应否接收同等数目的男生和女生 ”提出个人的意见。按照题目的要求，可谋篇布局如下： 第一段：从本人就读的大学入题，指出大

24、学不应该接收同等数目的男生和女生。 第二段：阐述原因。首先，强行保证男女生数目相等会引致更大的不平等，以语言类专业为例 ；其次，我们应该因材施教，而不是因性施教。 第三段：重申观点 大学不应该接收同等数目的男生和女生。 【知识模块】 作文 3 【正确答案】 Wed Better Read for Pleasure Ever since TV came into our life in 1930s, the majority of our family hours have been spent in front of it. Watching TV is always an easy deci

25、sion to make when we want to kill time. But what if we want to improve ourselves? I think reading for pleasure is better than watching TV in this regards. First of all, reading for pleasure can enhance our linguistic skills. When we read, we learn new words, pick up some smart sayings and shape our

26、rhetoric ability. Unlike watching TV, we can pause and savor a beautifully written sentence before resuming the fiction. We could acquire linguistic knowledge at our own pace, instead of following the rushed speed of TV programs. Secondly, reading for pleasure can develop our cognitive skills. When

27、reading, we have to focus on the materials at hand and use our imagination to put ourselves in the shoes of authors. Watching TV, however, is a mechanical task, which requires few processing efforts. That is why “couch potatoes“ are usually slow in response and weak in imagination. In conclusion, re

28、ading for fun is more helpful in sharpening our linguistic and cognitive abilities, while watching TV blunts our tongues and minds. 【试题解析】 本题属于 “立场选择型 ”作文，涉及的题材是 “文化教育 ”。该题要求考生对 “我们更应该悦读还是看电视 ”提出个人的意见。按照题目的要求，可谋篇布局如下： 第一段：从电视是消磨时光的权宜之计入题，指出悦读 (即为了娱乐而阅读 )比看电视更能提升自我。 第二段：阐述原因。首先，悦读能提高我们的语言能力，学会新单词、巧言妙

29、语、提升修辞能力；其次，悦渎能提升我们的认知能力，举注意力和想象力为例说明。 第三段：重申观点 悦读能有助于我们锻 炼语言能力和认知能力。 【知识模块】 作文 4 【正确答案】 Should Financial Support Only Be Provided for Scientific Research? It is presumed that science is more valuable in the contribution to economic development and national strength. Arts, however, are usually regar

30、ded as a luxury and fancy. Despite this, I think that financial support should also be provided for other fields, not exclusive for scientific research only. First of all, a healthy society needs the contribution of both science and arts. It is true that scientific invention will make our life easie

31、r, but the creative works in arts will make our life richer and fuller. For instance, the invention of computers transforms our way of communication, but a new type of art, by using mouse to draw a picture, also revolutionizes the traditional tools of “pencils and brushes“. The funding for both scie

32、nce and arts thus fuel the twin engines of our life, which is made more convenient and more interesting. Secondly, funding the disciplines other than science will enable us to know more about ourselves and the world. Science is very useful in changing the world. Arts, however, provide insights into

33、our inner self and the relationship between mankind and the world. In other words, scientific research produces more tools, but other research gives meaning and life to these tools and interprets their relationship with us. In conclusion, science and arts both deserve our funding, because they are w

34、orthy in their own unique way. 【试题解析】 本题属于 “立场选择型 ”作文，涉及的题材是 “文化教育 ”。该题要求考生对 “应否只对科学研究给予资助 ”提出个人的意见。按照题目的要求，可谋篇布局如下： 第一段：从科学的作用与文科的地位入题，指出科研资助不应该只对理科开放，其他领域也应该得到资助。 第二段：阐述原因。首先，一个健康的社会需要文科和理科的共同合力，以电脑发明和鼠标绘画为例；其次，向理科以外的学科资助，能让我们更了解自己和世界。 第三段：文科和理科各有长处，都值得我们资助。 【知识模块】 作文 5 【正确答案】 Is University Educat

35、ion Very Important? Since the “great-leap“ of college education in 1999, a bachelor degree is not able to secure a job as easily as it did 20 years ago. In this context, many people question the necessity of university education, saying that the input is falling short of the output. Despite this, I

36、think university education is very important. First of all, college education makes us specialized in a certain field. Upon high-school graduation, we know something of everything. But in university, we are supposed to know everything of something. For instance, I had to learn about chemistry, physi

37、cs, biology, history, geography, English, Chinese and math in senior high school. In university, I majored in English. Therefore, I was turned into a “specialist“ of English after college education. Instead of wasting time and energy in every possible filed, I could devote my heart and soul to one m

38、ajor and excel in it. Secondly, university education makes us a well-rounded person. Through presentations, interest groups, research groups and other activities, we not only gain valuable knowledge, but also sharpen our skills, such as communication skills, researching skills and teamwork spirit. A

39、ll these will benefit us for the entire life. In conclusion, university education is very important in that it improves us into “experts“ with multiple capabilities. 【试题解析】 本题属于 “立场选择型 ”作文，涉及的题材是 “文化教育 ”。该题要求考生对 “大学教育是否重要 ”提出个人的意见。按照题目的要求，可谋篇布局如下： 第一段：从大学大跃进的背景入题，指出大学教育很重要。 第二段：阐述原因。首先，大学教育让我们在某一领域有所专攻。举本人在高中和在大学所读科目为例；其次，大学教育使我们变成全面发展的人。 第三段：大学教育很重要，能把我们培养成一专多能的人才。 【知识模块】 作文
