4、minutes on this task. 1 【正确答案】 Technology is amazing and changing fast. Crops can be grown in controlled conditions to produce the huge quantities needed to feed people, and vegetable protein substitutes mean that people do not have to eat meat. Synthetic fibres mean that alternatives to wool and le

5、ather are readily available, and are usually cheaper. However, people still choose to cat crops that are grown in a more traditional manner, and people still choose to eat meat. Eating is still bound up with social convention and tradition. People can and do survive on completely artificial food, bu

6、t they miss the social aspect of sharing food with family and friends. Eating traditional food, especially on special occasions, is still important to us. The animals who share our world are important to us. If we had no use for domestic animals they would cease to exist. Animals are bred for meat,

7、as producers of dairy products, or for their fur or skins as well as by-products such as glue. If farmers cant sell the products, they will not breed the animals. In England, we have a number of examples where traditional husbandry of animals is important. In the Lake District, flocks of sheep known

8、 as Herdwick sheep live in the inhospitable hills. They make the landscape what it is, and people go out and walk, climb or ride to enjoy the stunning countryside. The sheep are hefted, which means that they know which hillside (or fell side as it is called there) they live on. Their wool is very th

9、ick and strong, ideal for outdoor coats and carpets. Farmers are trying very hard to get people to buy products made of wool. In the lowland areas sheep produce softer wool suitable for clothing, and again people are encouraged to use it. If we want the countryside to stay as it is, something we can

10、 all enjoy, we have to support the farmers and their animals, who keep it that way. Beautiful clothes and excellent locally produced healthy well flavoured food have much more appeal than mass produced goods. 【知识模块】 大作文 2 【正确答案】 Britain is a country that has absorbed immigrants for thousands of year

11、s. Waves of so-called Celtic people arrived over 2000 years ago, followed by the Roman armies that included soldiers from all over the known world; then Angles, Saxons, Danes, Vikings, all of whom left their mark; Norman French, then Huguenot refugees from France; and in more recent times people fle

12、eing persecution in Europe, mainly Jews, then people displaced because of war; ex Italian and German prisoners of war who wanted to stay, then people from the Caribbean, invited to work in the 1950s; and in the last four decades, Africans from Kenya and elsewhere, Muslims and Hindus. A real mix of p

13、eople are all attracted to the idea of living in a free, stable, prosperous country. All of this has brought tremendous benefits. The earliest settlers have left an amazing legacy and craftwork of the highest order, added to the language. They have also left place names to remind us of their presenc

14、e. Skills, such as that of the Huguenot weavers, business skills, and finance have all enriched the country. Initial hostility to people from Africa has almost disappeared but still rears its ugly head in subtle and not so subtle ways. Most of the people from the Caribbean had a genuine respect for

15、Britain, the Commonwealth, and especially the Queen. Many people in Britain have made a tremendous effort to embrace the idea of a multicultural society. Different festivals, such as Diwali, are celebrated in schools. Cities encourage such events as Chinese New Year celebrations. Important informati

16、on is available in many different languages and every effort is made to encourage newcomers. However, it seems that whilst for the most part people of different faiths and traditions meet at school and work quite freely, many such as Hindu, and especially Muslim, really do not want to be fully integ

17、rated. They want to keep their traditional dress and to look and to be distinct. A recent survey showed that many Muslims would like Shariah Law, a different system of laws, feel that women are second class citizens, would not report a suspected terrorist and so on. This is a huge drawback, because

18、it threatens the liberal, democratic way of life that we have, and poses a threat to the very reason for which they have come freedom. 【知识模块】 大作文 3 【正确答案】 Shopping centres, especially huge out of town shopping centres, have come to be a place where people spend their free time. They come to browse a

19、round the shops, eat at one of the many fast food outlets and go home happily laden with new clothes and all sorts of other things, having enjoyed a days retail therapy. Everyone has to shop, even though Internet shopping is increasingly important. Everyone needs clothes, shoes, food, books, gadgets

20、, jewellery and so on, but today people buy and buy and buy to make themselves feel good, and huge shopping centres encourage their rather unhealthy pastime. If public parks and sports facilities are planned when housing is built, they will be there for those who wish to use them. To build houses an

21、d not leave space for such facilities means that these things cannot then be built. Public parks can help encourage childrens activities, picnics for all the family, fun runs, and above all they provide a green space where trees can reduce the level of pollution. Sports facilities, such as swimming

22、pools, golf courses, gyms, hockey and football pitches, all help to encourage people to keep fit and use their leisure time in a way that encourages health, so that they are really important in cities . It is difficult today to say whether emphasis should be on shopping or recreation facilities beca

23、use the size of a shopping centre depends on the number of people able and willing to use it, and this to a certain extent is true of sports facilities and parks. It might be that in a city, two small neighbourhood parks are better than one huge one. Small parks are easily used by local children and

24、 families and can have play areas containing equipment, such as slides, swings and climbing frames. A bigger park can accommodate walkers, cyclists and horse riders. Ft really is important to match the available facilities, both for shopping and for leisure, to demand present and future, whilst also

25、 considering the number of such facilities and their size. 【知识模块】 大作文 4 【正确答案】 It is widely recognised that the number of goods, such as clothing, computers and food, that are produced for consumers has resulted in quite extensive damage to our environment and any increase in their production would,

26、 logically, exacerbate this damage. Looking at the causes of this potentially irreparable damage, I believe, they can be put into 2 major groups: resourcing and production. Most people, these days, are demanding more and more technology, more and more choice without understanding the impact this has

27、 on our world. Mobile phones would be the classic example of this. People dont realise the chain of production in something like an iPhone. The fact is that there will be several mines around the world to produce the metals needed for the circuitry, the amount of diesel fuel required for either the

28、trains or the trucks when transporting either the raw material, or for that matter, the finished product and the amount of pollution factories cause during both the refining and production processes. As for potential solutions to this problem, we need again to look at both the beginning and the end

29、of the production cycle. If we can develop technology that improves the efficiency of the use of raw materials, not only would this potentially reduce the amount we need, but also extend the life of what weve got. Looking at the production side of this issue, we need to be able, in some way, to redu

30、ce the pollutants that factories are placing in the air. Maybe this could also be done with a new form of technology, or maybe it could just be done by changing some processes involved. Overall, I think the best way to solve this problem is to try and help society understand that they dont need to be so greedy. If there was not the continuing expansion of desire and unrelenting want for something new, we wouldnt have this problem in the first place. 【知识模块】 大作文
