5、每当我们感到无聊和失落时，我们总能向手边的书寻求帮助。它们即刻就为我们展开一个全新的世界，在那里我们可以过各式人生、经历各种冒险。关于应该读经典著作还是读畅销书，人们的看法各异。有人声称我们应该读经典著作，因为经典著作为我们提供了一个学习国内外文坛巨匠伟大智慧的途径。阅读这些书使我们得到启迪，也促使我们对人生进行思考。相反，另一些人认为我们应当读畅销书，因为畅销书易于理解，能够为我们在这熙熙攘攘的世界里的沉重生活减轻压力。在我看来，两种书我们都要读。学习经典著作能帮助我们形成价值观和世界观；而畅销书则使我们的生活更多彩。Topic 2 Directions: For this part, yo

15、更可悲”很好地阐述了好奇心的重要性。好奇心是一种求知的欲望、一种探索的渴求以及一种发现的喜悦。如果没有好奇心，人类绝不可能达到今天的文明水平。好奇心激励我们揭开关于自然和人生的真理，需要一颗好奇的大脑才能透过表象发现新的世界和新的可能。如果不是好奇心，牛顿绝不可能推出万有引力定律，美洲和澳洲大陆也不可能被发现。好奇心使我们积极参与能够扩展我们大脑界限的活动，自然也就扩展了我们的视野。幸运的是，好奇心是一种可以培养和养成的习惯。具体来说，我们需要带着孩子般爱提问的习惯来接触这个世界。加以练习，我们一定能将日常的任务变成有趣的经历，为未来的发现和机遇打下基础。Topic 4Directions:

20、但是沿海地区和内陆地区的教育质量存在着很大的差距。为什么我国的教育如此不平衡？主要有两方面的原因。总的来看，经济状况影响地区教育发展。贫困地区买不起先进的教学设备，也吸引不了优秀的教师。除此之外，那些贫困地区的人们不认为教育非常重要，3他们倾向于把孩子送去工作而不是读书。鉴于这个问题的严重性，我们应该立即采取有效措施。首先，政府拨更多的资金用于发展内陆地区的教育是至关重要的。其次，有必要大力宣传接受良好教育的好处。Topic 5Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitle
