4、 【点评】首句交待背景，用无生命的名词词组(inanimate noun phrase)作主语并使用被动语态，文章更加客观中立。第二句话使用单词 embarrassing，深入地挖掘了当今大学生生存状况艰难与大学生十年寒窗之间令人无奈的矛盾。第三句话为承上启下句，fail to do sth. 表示没能、不能做某事。文章第二部分阐释了作者的个人看法。认为此社会现象的一个原因是大城市的高消费与大学生刚刚毕业收入相对较低之间产生的矛盾。第二个原因来自大学生对自身期许过高与大城市人才济济之间的矛盾。使用单词 ambitious，表示雄心勃勃。在形容人才济济时，使用abundant，表示充足的。此外，
5、文章还指出第一个原因是直接原因，第二个原因是间接导致了大学生生存困境。最后一段给出了解决方法，better oneself 指使某人自身更加优秀， better 此处作动词讲。预测作文（二）Should we help others in need?1 现在经常有这样的现象发生：路上有人摔倒，没人敢上前帮忙。2 这是人们的公德心缺失还是其他什么原因呢？3 你对此有何看法？【范文】2Helping others has always been a virtue in traditional Chinese culture.

8、美德”virtue 一词。第二句话为转折句，除了使用 but 这个表示强烈转折意味的连接词，还采用了 strange 和首句形成鲜明对比。文章第二部分开始阐释人们公德心（moral sense）缺乏的原因。指出原因之一为自私。此处采用了 egoism, 也可使用 selfishness, 但不可使用 individualism，后者在英语语境中通常作褒义词讲，即崇尚自尊自立之意。原因之一是内因，原因之二是外因。Trap 指陷阱，deceit 指欺骗。第二段使用了内外因、主客观因素结合的方法，较全面地解释了公德心缺失的根源。最后一段表明作者立场，提出既要坚持善良之心也要有防备之心。预测作文（三）

13、food, the degradation of food quality 和 toxic foods。 最后一段再次点题，并提出了万能解决方案之一，即政府和相关单位要制定法律法规。预测作文（四）The Popularity of Micro-blogging1近年来“微博”越来越流行，许多人利用“微博”来表达心声、交流想法。2微博流行的原因。3微博可能引起的弊端。【范文】Micro-blogging is no longer a strange word.

16、点评】第一段直接切入主题。首句在说明微博越来越流行时没有用肯定句 micro-blogging is more and more popular, 而是用否定句的方式“负负得正” 。从第二段开始阐释流行的原因。Contribute to 是固定词组，表示为作出贡献，其对应的名词是 contribution。第一个原因是微博方便人们在任何时候表达他们当时的感觉。这里通过“at any time”和“ instant feeling”突出了微博和传统博客的区别。第二个原因是微博可以减压。此处 release 表示释放，除了跟 release pressure, release stress, 还可
17、以跟release news。第三段描述了微博的弊端，give away 表示出卖，同义词有 betray。最后一段是作者的对微博的态度，在充分肯定微博积极意义的同时提醒人们要谨慎使用微博。预测作文（五）Reflection on Natural Disasters1 最近国内外灾害不断发生，这些灾害引起了我们对于自然所做的行为的再一次思考。2 你是如何看待自然灾害的？43 我们应该采取哪些措施来尽可能避免这些灾害和减少损失呢？【范文】Natural disasters happen almost every day，those devastating ones leave us to thi
