(20 points)1 【正确答案】 The picture depicts a scene in which residents of Earth all try their best to obtain water from outer space. Crowds of people are crammed in the one window, stretching

5、their hands outwards with bowls to catch one or two drops of rain. Further examination reveals that the window actually is dramatized as the window of Earth.Apparently, the picture symbolizes that humans, with such a huge population, may one day suffer from the exhaustion of resources. Take water as

6、 an example. Water is indispensable in humans daily life. We find that the unbalanced distribution of the resource poses a difficult problem to the rapidly increasing human population as how to maximize the value of water. To make it worse, pollution from industrial production transform many clean r

7、ivers into undrinkable water.If the tendency of population boom and shortage of resources is not properly controlled, we have every reason to hold a pessimistic perspective towards humans future on Earth. Perhaps eventually we would face the situation suggested by the picture, that is, relying on th

8、e limited resources from outer space. Accordingly, I strongly recommend that the whole globe launch aggressive programs to address this serious problem.【知识模块】 短文写作2 【正确答案】 It is a very alarming cartoon, in which hundreds of new-born babies are crying for food but there are only two bowls of porridge

9、 available. The babies represent human population while the porridge symbolizes global resources, as indicated by the caption. The drawing aims to alarm us that resources on Earth are far from enough to sustain our exploding population.This message is quite true. The 20th century had not only witnes

10、sed a huge hike in population, but also the emergence of crises resulting from fighting for restricted resources. Take crude oil for example, it is so immensely consumed in daily life and industrial production that its role is fundamental in todays global economic and political stage. People of diff

11、erent nations even initiate wars to obtain more oil fields, an activity which can be best exemplified by the complicated scenario in the Middle East. Other examples include more disputes over the sharing of water resources, as well as the lack of food and other necessities in most African countries.

12、Indeed, a large population with limited resources casts a shadow on mankinds future existence in this planet. Therefore, we must take positive steps with the strength of all human beings to hold back this grim tendency. Sustainable development needs a moderate population with a reasonable exploitati

13、on of natural resources.【知识模块】 短文写作3 【正确答案】 The cartoon features the sharp contrast between the students of the same elementary school in 1970 and 2000. In 1970, the school is named “Labor School“ where most students were very skinny compared to one fat guy. But in 2000, the schools name changed to

14、“Doctor School“ in which the majority of students were well-fed with round bodies.It is abundantly clear that the picture aims at criticizing obesity among todays Chinese children. In the past, our society valued labor as the supreme virtue, and thus most people were content with hard work supported

15、 by ordinary food. However, recent accumulation of material wealth has led to changed values and fostered individual enjoyment as the most important task. In particular, a generation of the “only child“ has grown up with their desires greatly indulged. Parents provide them with feasts and comfortabl

16、e facilities, while the children do not even have the chance to labor or exercise. All of these factors contribute to the drastic change in childrens weight in general.It is important to note that the improvement of population quality is one of the main tasks that Chinas population policy addresses.

17、 In brief, tentative measures should be adopted to promote a healthy life style and outlook of value in the society, particularly among the next generation.【知识模块】 短文写作4 【正确答案】 As is depicted in the picture, compared to the situation in the past, nowadays the total wealth that mankind possesses consp

18、icuously surpasses that of any time in history. What is more striking is that most of the wealth concentrates in the hands of a small bunch of people.It is quite obvious that the artist wishes to set us thinking about the disparity between the rich and the poor in todays world. On the one hand, it i

19、s staggering for us to find in the annual list of the “Worlds Wealthiest People“ by Forbes Magazine how the property of the rich keeps aggregating in an unbelievable scale. For instance, the fortune of Bill Gates certainly amounts to, or even exceeds, the annual GDP of an average developing country.

20、 On the other hand, the majority of humans have to struggle simply to make ends meet, not to mention those still suffer from hunger in the most underdeveloped countries.It is beyond doubt that the gross discrepancy of wealth distribution, though being a problem long existing in human society, is now developing to an extreme which may cause chaos. Therefore, the whole world should take this problem into serious consideration. Only through a systematic reform to achieve a more equal society can we prevent the problem from deteriorating.【知识模块】 短文写作
