Boys and girls,

I’m the chairman of Student Union, Li Hua, and I have big news for you. To enrich our life on campus and improve our English, we, Student Union, set up an English club. Obviously, besides study, there are also other things beneficial to us. It is believed that the club can make our campus life colorful and rewarding. There goes the plan.

It is arranged that we will see English films in the auditorium on Tuesday evening. Apart from that, there is going to be an English debate or discussion on Saturday evening; yet, the specific topics haven’t been settled. If you have wonderful ideas and suggestions, please let us know.

I’ll highly appreciate it if you are actively involved in the club. You will never regret joining us. So, just do it. Student Union

例4：目前，有不少中学生不做家务，一些父母认为：中学生学习负担重，首要任务是学习。再者，中学生也不知道怎样做家务。请你就此用英文给一家报社写一篇短文，阐述你的观点和看法。

Nowadays, some students don’t help their parents do housework at home.

Some parents love their children too much and don’t let them work at home. On one hand, they think that their children are too busy with their studies and expect them to do well in their lessons only. On the other hand, they think their children don’t know how to do the housework.

However, I think students should help their parents do housework at home. First, that can develop their love for

work. Next, that can help them understand their parents better. Last and the most important, that can help them cultivate their ability to live.

(七)有关“环境友好型、资源节约型社会”话题

例1：近日你所在的学校开展了“为建设节约型社会献一计”主题活动，同学们提出了许多建议。请你根据以下要点，用英语写一篇短文向English Horizons杂志编辑部投稿：

有人建议 你的建议 1。不浪费粮食和纸张2。尽量不使用方便筷、塑料袋 3。毕业生将书赠给低年级同学循环使用？ 方便筷disposable chopsticks Recently，there has been an activity of “doing your bit for an energy-saving society” in our school. Our schoolmates are highly concerned about the increasing lack of energy and provide their own suggestions.

Some students suggest that we shouldn’t waste any food or paper, though they appear very easy to get. Meanwhile, some other students think it advisable to refuse to use disposable chopsticks and plastic bags. Besides, it is also strongly recommended that those used textbooks as well as reference books of graduates, which are still in good condition, not be thrown but recycled.

Actually, there are still quite a lot that we can easily do: say, try to take buses or ride bicycles instead of driving cars, etc. All of these will definitely help to build an energy-saving society.

例2：假如你上周末参加了某旅行社组织的所谓生态游，你觉得名不副实。请你根据下表内容把自己经历的这次生态游和对真正生态游的看法写出来。

所谓的生态游

欣赏风景，享受新鲜空气 有人摘花、捉鸟、乱扔垃圾 真正的生态游 享受自然，同时也是一种责任 要保护自然，保护野生动物 带走美好回忆，留下青山绿水

Last weekend I went on an eco-travel with a travel agency. All the way we enjoyed the beautiful scenery and fresh air. But a few of us picked flowers as while going sightseeing.. Some even tried to catch the birds they saw. What was worse, many tourists threw rubbish here and there. The rubbish may do harm to wildlife there.

I don’t think this is a true eco-travel. A true eco-travel is a tour that not only allows us to express our love for nature,

but needs our responsibility as well. As we enjoy the beauty of nature, we should try our best to protect it. And we should also try to protect wildlife. A true eco-travel should be like this: take nothing away but your good memory; leave nothing behind but all the green trees and the clean water.

(八)有关“文明礼仪”话题 例1：

请根据下列提示用英语在校园网站上报道该校即将举行的一次主题演讲活动。 主题：文明校园，我的责任 时间：本周六上午 地点：学校操场

演讲者：各年级演讲前两名获胜者 出席人员：全体师生 主要内容：不乱扔废弃物，保持校园清洁； 爱护花草、树木，让校园充满绿色； 不追逐打闹，文明举止 关爱他人，让校园充满爱。

参考词汇：文明civilize

There will be a speech on our school playground this Saturday afternoon, whose theme is “To civilize schoolyard is my responsibility”. All the teachers and students are required to attend. In the activity, the first two winners in each grade will give such valuable advice as follows: we should not litter anywhere in order to keep our campus clean; we should love flowers, grass and trees so that everyone can enjoy the greenness; we should behave well instead of running after one another, quarreling and fighting noisily; we should care for others so that our school will be full of love. We believe our school

will become more and more beautiful and peaceful.

例2：

假设你是李明，最近你校的一份英语报纸正在校园出现的“涂鸦”现象开展讨论。请你根据以下要点写一封信给报纸编辑，发表你的看法。(1)“涂鸦”丑陋难看。(2)公共建筑物不是表达观点、感情的地方。(3)禁止“涂鸦”。

graffiti 涂鸦，(在墙上的)乱涂 vandalism 对公共财物的有意破坏 Dear Editor,

Recently graffiti has become more noticeable in my college. I feel quite annoyed at them, especially when some of my classmates praise them as a kind of so-called art. Confronted with this impolite phenomenon, I can’t help asking myself: what is wrong with today’s teenagers?

In my opinion, graffiti is a form of vandalism. They are a mess and are ugly to look at. Meanwhile, walls are public places, and they should not be used to express personal views and feelings.

I really think vandalism should be stopped, and those who refuse to stop this bad practice should be punished. We should clear away these ugly expressions and drawings so that our college may return to its true self--a clean, quiet place for study, teaching and research.

Yours, Li Ming

(九)有关“网络”话题

例1：报纸和网站是当今两大主要媒体。请根据下表内容，以 “Newspapers and Websites” 为题，用英语写一篇短文，简要介绍这两种媒体的优缺点。

报 纸1. 传统媒体，天天更新，信息可靠 2. 携带方便，随时随地可以阅读 3. 仅有文字和图片 网 站1. 新兴媒体，信息更新速度快 2. 依赖于电脑及互联网 3. 包含文字、图片、音频和视频

. 参考词汇：更新update；音频audio；视频video

Newspapers and Websites

Newspapers and websites are two major new media in the world today, both of which can provide us with lots of news and information. But they’re different in some ways.

Newspapers enjoy a longer history and often come out daily with more reliable news and information. They can be carried and read almost anywhere you like. So many people like reading them. But they can only contain texts and photos.

On the other hand, websites are quite new and popular, especially among young people. Websites have not only texts with pictures but also audios and videos, which makes stories more interesting. What’s more, they are updated from time to time. So the latest news is always seen on websites instead of in newspapers. But it is not quite convenient for people without a computer connected with the Internet to get information from websites.

例2：目前，一些诸如GG, MM, Xia Mi 等网络语言在青少年中极为盛行，并且出现在家庭作业报告，甚至全国入学考试的作文中。请你以 “Should Internet Slang Be Prohibited (禁止)？”为题，根据下表内容用英语写一篇短文，并谈谈你自己的看法。 一些同学认为 网络语言生动、时尚 网络语言充满幽默与智慧 使网上聊天更快捷

另一些同学认为 网络语言缺乏思想性 没有被大部分人理解、接受 过多使用使人不解，甚至误解 你的看法 参考词汇：生动的vivid；智慧intelligence

Should Internet Slang Be Prohibited?

At present, Internet Slang, such as “GG, MM, Xia Mi”， has become popular among the teenagers.

There are different opinions on Internet Slang. Some students think Internet Slang is vivid, fashionable and full of humor and intelligence. Besides, it makes chatting on the Internet quicker.

However, some other students think Internet Slang lacks depth of thought and is too simple. Also, it is hard to understand and not accepted by most people. The words sometimes might make people confused, even resulting in misunderstanding.

Every coin has two sides. In my opinion, living in the Information Age, if we don’t know the Internet Slang, we seem to fall behind the times. It will be OK as long as these terms are used correctly in proper situations.

例3：假如你是李华，最近你对本班的60名同学(男女各半)进行了上网目的的调查，结果见下表。请你用英语给某报社写一篇报道，反映你调查的内容，以引起公众的关注。

参考词汇：做调查make a survey Dear editor,

I have recently made a survey among 30 boys and 30 girls in our class about their purpose(s) of getting on the

Internet. The girls’ favorite is chatting, but few boys like it. What boys like to do most is playing games and the girls also like them. Both boys and girls like to read news or send e-mails on the Internet. Maybe they think it’s the most convenient way to get information or keep in touch with friends. As for studying, the numbers of boys and girls are equal, but altogether only several of them will use the Internet as a tool to study.

(十)有关“人与事件”话题

例1： The Most Unforgettable Person I Ever knew

(1)我生活中最难以忘怀的人是?? (2)为什么他(或她)一直在我心中 (3)结论

In my life I have met many people who are really worth my recalling. But perhaps the most unforgettable person I ever knew is my Chinese language teacher.

What frequently brings back memories of my school teacher is his special qualities. First of all, I was attracted by his

lively wit. I remember we always long for his class with great eagerness because his lecture were humorously delivered, never failing to provoke loud laughs. Second, he gave us the greatest gift a teacher can offer-- an awakening of a passion for learning. He not only led us to an appreciation of the beauty and perfection of Chinese and literature, but also aroused our great interest in exploring something deeper in this field. Finally, I was deeply impressed by the respect he showed for

us, for he treated us like friends rather than students.

Although it is nearly 10 years since I attended his last class, he is the talk of our old classmates, and I know part of him has already stayed in my heart.

例2：

A Lesson from My Parents

Parents are your first teachers. Write a short essay to describe one of instructive lessons you once learned from

your parents, including：

(1)描述一件有教育意义的事情；(2)它对你的影响。

A distance of 500 miles separates my college from my hometown, an old city, where my parents have been living,

but my heart has never been away for a single step, because the lesson from them will be a gift of lifetime.

When I was still 15, the laid-offs, or rather untimely retirements, of both my Mum and dad, arrived by far earlier

than ever expected. Moreover, it could be hardly imagined how much their careers meant to them other than earning money.

Nevertheless, it would be not long before they managed to get over such a blow. They thus underwent all kinds of

odd jobs they could run into, be they dirty or painstaking. That way with sufficient money for my tuition fee and living expenses I went through my three academic years.

Now one of them is getting weaker and both older, but the lesson that God only helps those who help themselves

they taught me will endure in my mind despite the passage of time.
