1、专业英语四级（作文）模拟试卷 74及答案与解析 一、 PART VI WRITING 1 After graduating from colleges, most graduates have to face a difficult choice of where to find a job. Should university graduates choose jobs in large modern cities, such as Beijing, Shanghai, or Guangzhou? People have different ideas. Read carefully the

2、 opinions from both sides and write your response in about 200 words, in which you should first summarize briefly the opinions from both sides and give your view on the issue. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the a

3、bove instructions may result in a loss of marks. YES In big cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, young people can have many more opportunities than in small towns. Those big cities are usually economically developed areas in China, and therefore many Chinese and international companies choos

4、e to do business there. For young university graduates, they can have far more chances to find a promising job in big cities. If college graduates choose to work in big cities, they can have opportunities to get in touch with elites in every field. Many forums and international meetings are held in

5、big cities, providing great opportunities for young people to enrich their knowledge and renovate their thinking. Living and working in big cities can broaden their horizon. In modern big cities, ones ability is far more important than his family background. As long as one is diligent and hard-worki

6、ng, he can build up a bright future by himself. NO Big cities like Beijing and Shanghai are the most developed areas in China, but at the same time, the living cost there is also too high to afford. Although the salary in big cities is higher than that in small towns, the cost is even higher. The co

7、mpetition in big cities is too fierce, and the pace of life there is too fast for people to bear. In some top 500 companies, it is quite common for employees to work till night. In order to get promotion, young people have to face greater pressure, and therefore both their mental and physical health

8、 is often facing threats. If graduates choose to work in small cities or towns, their salary may not be that high, but they can live a healthy and normal life. Instead of working overtime, they can relax themselves on the weekend, such as going outdoors and attending gatherings. 2 In todays job mark

9、et, applicants who have studied abroad are widely welcomed by companies and schools, and are offered with more opportunities to find rewarding jobs than those without such experience. Are overseas returnees superior to graduates who are at home? Employees and employers have different views. The foll

10、owing are opinions from both sides. Read carefully the opinions from both sides and write your response in about 200 words, in which you should first summarize briefly the opinions from both sides and give your view on the issue. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, orga

11、nization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks. YES Graduates who have studied abroad can easily distinguish themselves from those who are at home in terms of the mastery of foreign languages, especially English. Studying and living in foreign c

12、ountries have sharply improved the overseas returnees oral English, language proficiency as well as their communication skills. This advantage is extremely important and is greatly valued by todays employers, especially international companies. Studying abroad can broaden ones horizon, and enhance o

13、nes understanding and tolerance of cultural diversity. During their college years, the overseas students may contact with people from different nations and cultural backgrounds. Thus they are often more adept at dealing with cross-cultural issues than college students at home. NO Not everyone who st

14、udies overseas can learn real skills. As peoples living standard has been improved very much, many students have the chance to study abroad. But not all of them treasure this chance. For some college students, when they go to a foreign country, what they like to do most is to play and have fun, not

15、to study. When they return home, what they bring back is simply a diploma, but not the real skills. If the employers choose them only because of their diplomas, it will be unfair to the others. The knowledge from overseas does not always fit in our country. Even if the students who go abroad do lear

16、n some real skills, it does not mean that these skills and knowledge are completely suitable for the Chinese employers. 3 Should we slow down the pace of life? This has been intensely discussed for years. The following are the supporters and opponents opinions. Read carefully the opinions from both

17、sides and write your response in about 200 words, in which you should first summarize briefly the opinions from both sides and give your view on the issue. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions ma

18、y result in a loss of marks. YES People need to slow down the pace of life and show their care for their beloved. With the fast pace of life, young people have become busier and have less time to stay at home to accompany their parents. In modern life, peoples living standard has been greatly improv

19、ed, but the fast pace of life does bring physical and mental harm, so people should slow down the pace of life to keep healthy. Jobs become demanding and require workers full commitment, resulting in their depression and pressure. People should change their lifestyle and slow down the pace of life t

20、o enjoy all the things that life gives them. NO The fast rhythm of life requires people to enhance efficiency when working and then allows them to enjoy longer leisure time. The acceleration of the pace of life also implies the expansion of peoples social circle. In the past, social relationships we

21、re limited by physical factors such as geographical distance and low mobility, but nowadays, one can travel farther and get acquainted with more people with technological advances. The fast pace of life increases efficiency and further improves overall productivity. 4 Will culture be ruined if it is

22、 used to earn tourism revenue? This has been intensely discussed for years. The following are the supporters and opponents opinions. Read carefully the opinions from both sides and write your response in about 200 words, in which you should first summarize briefly the opinions from both sides and gi

23、ve your view on the issue. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks. YES Food, festivals, costumes and other noticeable elements of a culture are highlighted to entertai

24、n tourists, who show no respect to the locals and may cause damage to the unique nature of a culture. Cultural commercialization has made the sacred elements of a culture commonplace and tourists are encouraged to attach little importance to a unique tradition, which cannot be found elsewhere. Too m

25、uch tourism may harm the quality of the tradition and heritage of a place. Due to the unplanned and mismanaged growth of cultural tourism, an ever-booming place might gradually become the victim of its own success. By and by, the unique culture of that place may lose its attractiveness, which can ev

26、entually lead to the decline and fall of its cultural identity. NO Providing economic incentives for cultural preservation is unarguably one of the main contributions of tourism. To many tourists, culture and history are their first consideration when choosing a destination. Their mindset has been a

27、dopted by many tourism sites and their money has been subsequently used on cultural protection, including the maintenance of key historical sites. Tourism can make an indigenous culture known to the world and rally support worldwide to protect it. Needless to say, tourism adds value to a scenic reso

28、rt by serving as a driving force in boosting that places economy. 5 People have different expectations of jobs. Nowadays, whether or not to stay in one position for a long time is a problem that troubles a lot of people. Some people prefer to do the same job in the same company while others would ra

29、ther change jobs frequently. Read carefully the opinions from both sides and write your response in about 200 words, in which you should first summarize briefly the opinions from both sides and give your view on the issue. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organizatio

30、n and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks. YES The merit of going in for a life-time career is obvious. Firstly, working in the same position for a long time can help you become an expert in this area, so you can get familiar with your work from e

31、very angle and accumulate abundant experience. If you stick at one post, you will have the opportunity to know every aspect of the job: as time goes by, you will definitely have a good command of it. Consequently you may become a veteran of the field and earn prestige and respect from others. In add

32、ition, mistakes in your routine tasks would be miramized because of your rich experience. Finally, you can establish an extensive social connection relating to the field, which will help you tear down most of the barriers standing in the way of your work. NO Staying in one position for a long time w

33、ill definitely result in boredom. As peoples patience is limited, some, especially the young, may feel that the longer they do the same job, the less interest they may have. In comparison, if one person changes job frequently, he will never be annoyed by this problem. Then lets look at work motivati

34、on. If one works for the same company for a long time without promotion, he may feel bored and tired of doing the same daily routine. Changing jobs frequently would endow one with the feeling of freshness. Whats more, in view of the fierce competition in the job market, having more working experienc

35、es would definitely be an advantage. 6 A popular TV host in China has reportedly invested about $ 740, 000 in a project to research, preserve and promote the Hunan provincial dialects. Chinese TV anchors are required to speak Mandarin in their work, but should dialects be allowed on air? Many citize

36、ns embrace the TV programs which use dialects, while some experts hold different views. Read carefully the opinions from both sides and write your response in about 200 words, in which you should first summarize briefly the opinions from both sides and give your view on the issue. Marks will be awar

37、ded for content relevance, content sufficiency, organization and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks. YES Dialect is an important part of local culture, but now many kids dont even know how to speak their local dialects because of the dominant use

38、 of Mandarin around them. It would be a pity if future generations were unable to understand and speak the local dialects that are used by their predecessors. It would be a terrible loss in cultural heritage. The television programs, radio programs and some online programs provide good opportunities

39、 to introduce dialects and promote the popularity of them. Using dialects on air is an excellent way to promote language variety and protect cultural heritage. Besides, in the south of China, dialects are used more widely than Mandarin, and the programs about local peoples daily life are more vivid

40、when presented in local dialects. NO TV and radio broadcasters should take the lead in popularizing Mandarin. As broadcasters, their primary goal is to let themselves be easily understood by all the audience. It can be imagined that if broadcasters can speak dialects as they please, the audience who

41、 do not understand them will be confused. It is also a basic right of the audience around the country to hear Mandarin on TV or radio programs. To require hosts to speak Mandarin is not to oppress dialects, but only to restrict and curb improper and irresponsible use of language. It is unprofessiona

42、l for some hosts to imitate the pronunciation of dialects. Some dialects contain vulgar and improper words and expressions, and unrestricted use of dialects will degrade the honor of public media. 专业英语四级（作文）模拟试卷 74答案与解析 一、 PART VI WRITING 1 【正确答案】 Bright Future in Big Cities When it comes to the vas

43、t pool of young and underemployed college graduates, they are really on the horns of a dilemma of choosing a proper place to start their career. To choose a modern big city like Beijing or Shanghai, or to stay in a small town, is a tough question. Some graduates prefer big cities for the metropolise

44、s remain a strong appeal to them with the multitudinous opportunities. Small towns, in some other graduates opinion, create a comfortable work environment. In my point of view, I believe youth is for us to strive, and there is no better place for us to do so than big cities. Firstly, although the wo

45、rking condition in big cities is far more arduous, we can still give full play to our initiative. As long as we keep making efforts toward our dreams, we will surely enjoy a rosy future. If graduates can weather the initial difficult situations, what they embrace will be a strong mind to overcome mo

46、re difficulties, which is a very important element for them to succeed in the future. Secondly, in big cities, there are more chances for graduates to improve themselves. Once they seize the chance, their sweat and tears will get rewarded. Lastly, owing to the fact that many companies and organizati

47、ons at home and abroad are situated in highly developed cities, young graduates are more likely to widen their intellectual horizons in big cities. In conclusion, I strongly hold that it is better for graduates to choose a job in big cities. The abundant opportunities there will enable young people

48、to exploit their potential and realize their dreams. Although life in big cities may be more difficult and arduous, all the efforts and hardship will be paid off if we are determined to seize the opportunities. 【知识模块】 作文 2 【正确答案】 Overseas Returnees Are Not Superior Studying abroad has become a popul

49、ar trend in recent years. Many overseas students have become strong competitors in the job market after they return to China. There is no doubt that language skill is one of the distinctive advantages of overseas returnees. However, some people hold the opposite opinion. They claim that overseas study should not be always considered as an open sesame to a well-paid job since many youngsters merely regard the experience of studying abroad as a fabulous travel. In my opinion, in this ability-oriented society, practical skills and enriched knowledge of an em
