It is obvious from the
2、 table that people tended to be more and more mobile, and they wanted to get entertainment in the outside world. What contributed to these changes? I think the reasons are as follows. To start with, with the rapid development of economy, people earn by far more money than they used to. Thus, people
3、are able to afford traveling expenses. Secondly, people think it important to get well-informed about the outside world in this new era when everything is on the move. Traveling, of course, is a sure way to achieve this goal. Whats more, in this competitive society, people are usually under great st
4、ress. However, it is not difficult to find traveling an effective way to relieve peoples stress and get relaxation. Last but not least, by traveling outside, people are close to nature, which is not only beneficial to both their health and peace of mind. In conclusion, people prefer to go traveling
5、rather than stay at home during holidays for a combination of reasons. Moreover, it seems that this trend will last in the foreseeable future.人口增长对野生动物的影响（99 年真题） 2.图画/图表描述段 From these graphs, we can draw a conclusion that, with the growth of human population, the number of species has decreased rap

Third, as for ourselves, we should take practical actions to protect our living environment.烟草生产和消费（01 年大纲样题）1.现象/现状说明段The majority of p
10、eople would agree that cigarette smoking has caused serious problems. But the tobacco companies insist that they contribute greatly to the world economy by paying taxes to the government and employing hundreds of workers.4.利弊说明段Personally, I believe that cigarette production and consumption threaten
11、s to do more harm than good. Firstly, smoking is responsible for many fatal diseases such as lung cancer, heart diseases and so on. According to the survey, tobacco consumers account for about 20% of the world population, and among them, three million people die from smoking-related diseases every y
12、ear. The fact that the output of tobacco production is reduced from 143.64 billion pounds in 1994 to 142 billion pounds in 1995 also suggests that people have come to realize the negative effects of smoking. Secondly, tobacco consumption is extremely wasteful of money. As is indicated in the picture
13、s, 200 billion US dollars is lost due to smoking each year. Obviously, the total loss of money around the globe substantially exceeds the gain in the industry.8.归纳结论段In conclusion, as the economic development aims at making our life better, we cannot sacrifice our health for short-term financial ben
14、efits. If we have to spend more and more money providing medical services for those who suffer from smoking-related illnesses, the notion of promoting economy via tobacco production is not justifiable. It is high time that we fought for the total tobacco ban.日用花销统计Statistics in Peoples Daily Expense

The statistics of rise and fall seem to exist in isolation but closely related to one another.6.原因列军段There are two factors accounting for these changes. Development in economy is an essential one in the five years. T
17、he increased income resulting from economic growth plays an important part in the less expense on food. Hence, a small percentage of total income is enough to cover food expense. Another one is the changes in life style. When food presents no worry to the average, people begin to focus more of inter
18、est on handsome appearance and happy leisure time. As a result of such a shift, spending on clothing and recreation increased year after year.9.趋势预测段From the analyses made above, we may come to the conclusion that peoples living standards in Xi an have been constantly improved between 1995 and 1999.
19、 With the further growth in economy and more changes in life style, the tendency indicated in the table will continue in the table will continue in the better direction.【段落类型分析】第一段 第二段 第三段图画/图表描述段 原因阐释段 建议措施段【参考范文一】From these graphs, we can draw a conclusion that, with the growth of human population

25、ract investment from outsideInvestment in Beijing from Different Countries and RegionsHong Kong -44%Japan - 19.2%U.S.A.-16%Other 23 countries -21.8%自从年中国对外开放以来，北京在吸引投资合资企业方面已取得了显著成绩。根据图示，不同企业的投资者来自个国家和地区。香港的投资额居第一位，占总额的 44%。 日本占 19.2%，居第二位。美国为第三，占16%。普遍认为，北京从外部投资中受益匪浅。首先，大量合资企业已经建立，这就大大促进了“首都经济”的发展。
26、其次，外资企业为北京市民提供了许多就业机会。这又缓解了北京的下岗工人问题。最后，由于北京和沿海开放城市一样享有许多优惠政策，所以高科技产业在首都迅速发展。 至于吸引外资的措施，我认为有如下几点。一方面，我们应该专门努力来改善投资环境。另一方面，我们应该抓住机遇把目前的外资企业管理好。Since China opened its door to the outside world in 1979, Beijing has made remarkable results in attracting foreign business to invest in joint ventures. Acco
27、rding to the pie chart, the investors in different enterprises come from 26 countries and regions. Hong Kong investment ranks first, accounting for 44 per cent of the total. Japans investment makes up 19.2 per cent, putting it in second spot. Third is the United States at 16 per cent. It is generall
28、y believed that Beijing benefits a lot from the outside investment. In the first place, a large number of joint ventures have been set up, which contributes greatly to the development of Capital Economy. Secondly, the foreign-invested enterprises offer a lot of jobs to the residents in Beijing. This
29、 in turn relieves the problem of laid-off workers in the city. Finally, the high-tech enterprises in the capital will grow rapidly as Beijing enjoys the same preferential policies as coastal cities open to the outside world.As far as the measures to attract outside investment are concerned, I think
30、they are as follows. On the one hand, we should make special efforts to improve the investment environment. On the other hand, we should take advantage of this opportunity to run the present foreign-invested enterprises efficiently.Directions: In this part, you are to write an essay of about 200 wor

Suggest ways to fight against fake and inferior products 正如所给的图画所描绘的，我国社会主义市场经济正在迅速发展，就像一辆高速行驶的卡车。但是公众惊讶地发现，
32、越来越多的假冒伪劣产品严重地阻碍了我国市场经济的发展。消费者必须经常谨慎地去购买他们所需的货物或服务，否则他们会落入制假人所设的陷阱。毫无疑问，假冒伪劣产品极其有害.首先,它们危害人民的健康,引发了许多伤害事故.例如,伪劣药品不仅使病人恶化,而且往往会威胁病人的生命, 更糟的是，导致病人的死亡。其次，假冒伪劣产品通常廉价出售。在许多情况下，它们有干扰了我国正常的经济秩序，影响了许多高质量产品的销路。这在很大程度上阻碍了我国社会主义市场经济的健康发展，并损害了我们国家的利益。因此，我们可以说，假冒伪劣产品是我们健康经济中的一颗“毒瘤”，对此必须尽快清除。依我看，必须采取若干措施来与假冒伪劣产品斗
33、争。一方面，制假者必须依法严惩。另一方面，由于市场的日益复杂化消费者常会遇到欺诈行为。虽然有法律保护消费者，但是没有足够数量的执法者来处理市场的全部流弊。所以，消费者应该学会辨别真假。只有这样，消费者才能维护他们的合法权益As the picture given depicts, the socialist market-oriented economy in our country is developing rapidly, just like a truck running at a high speed. But the general public is surprised to f
34、ind that there are more and more fake and inferior products seriously hampering the expansion of our marker economy. Consumers have to be very careful in purchasing goods and services they need; otherwise they will fall into the traps set by the illegal manufacturers who make fake and inferior produ
35、cts.There is no doubt that fake and inferior products are extremely harmful. In the first place, they endanger peoples health, giving rise to a lot of injury accidents. For instance, inferior-quality medicines not only aggravate a patients condition, but also tend to threaten his life and, whats wor
36、se, to result in his death. Secondly, fake and inferior products are usually sold on the cheap. In many cases they interfere with the normal economic order in our country, affecting the market of many high-quality goods. This in a great degree, hinders the development of our socialist market economy
37、 and harms the interests of our state. Therefore, we can say that fake and inferior products are a dangerous “tumor” in our healthy economy, which must be cut away as soon possible.In my opinion, several strong measures should be adopted to fight against fake and inferior products. On the one hand,
38、those who make them must be severely punished by the law. On the other hand, due to the growing complexity of the market, consumers are often faced with deceptive practices. Although there are laws designed to protect consumers, there is not a sufficient number of law enforcers to cover all the abus
39、es of the marketplace. Hence, consumers should learn to discern between true and false. Only in this way can they defend their own legal rights and interests.Directions:A.
