9、s greater than ever before, every day we cites the incredible slaughter of men, women and children on the roads. Man versus the motorcar! It is a never-ending battle which man is losing. Thousands of people in the world are killed or horribly mutilated each year and we are quietly sitting back and l
10、etting it happen. It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel, his car becomes the extension of his personality. There is no doubt that the motorcar often brings out a mans very worst qualities. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when
11、 they are behind a steering wheel. They are ill-mannered and aggressive, willful as two-year olds and utterly selfish. The surprising thing is that society smiles so benignly on the motorist and seems to condone his behavior. Everything is done for his convenience. Cities are allowed to become almos
12、t uninhabitable because of heavy traffic; the countryside is desecrated by road networks; and the mass annual slaughter becomes nothing more than a statistic, to be conveniently forgotten. It is high time a world code were created to reduce this senseless waste of human life. With regard to driving,
13、 laws of some countries are notoriously lax and even the strictest are not strict enough. A code which was universally accepted could only have dramatically beneficial effect on the accident rate.译文http:/3只有制定更严格的法律才能防止事故发生尽管现在幸福和长寿比以前更容易得到,但每天却有很多人丧身车轮。人和车的冲突永无止境,人却是受害者。世界上每年都有成千上万的人死于车祸, 我们再也不能坐视不
14、管。 有一种说法我认为是对的,每当人们手握方向盘的时候,他们的个性就显露出来了。勿容置疑汽车将人们的恶性显露出来。平时安静的人一开车马上变得让人认不出。他们变得具有攻击性,极度自私,像两岁孩子一样任性。令人惊奇的是人们对于肇事者的态度十分纵容。为他们提供了各种便利条件。由于严重的交通拥挤,城市几乎变得不适合认居住。乡村也被各种公路网所污染。大量的交通死亡人数也只不过是一些数字,被人们所遗忘。我们必须要建立一种世界制度来制止这种对生命的扼杀。一些国家关于驾驶的法律太松懈,甚至最严酷的法律也是那么无力。被普遍接受的世界制度对于降低事故率只会有利。三. 规定情景作文范文 1Directions: I

Do you agree or disagree?Education is an indispensable part in ones life. It illuminates human knowledge and culture, improving the development of science and technol
16、ogy. In my point of view, education is not only for young people, it should be proceeding in peoples whole life. For one reason, our society is developing at an amazing speed along with the improvement of science and technology. If people stop studying after graduation from university, they can not

Therefore, a person should take a lifelong learning.As the saying goes, “never too old to learn.” To keep up with the development of world, a person must study during his whole life. Otherwise, he will lag far behind the others. 译文在人的一生中教育是不可分割的一部分。它承载了知识和文明,促进了科学技术的进步。在我看来,
19、教育不尽属于年经人,而是一个一生的过程。其中一个原因就是随着科学技术的不断进步,社会发展的速度也是惊人的。如果大学毕业后就停止学习,人们很难跟上社会发展的脚步,很容易在激烈的 竞争中被淘汰。比如说 IT 技术。信息正在以以前几倍的速度增长。如果人们不学习最新的知识他们就不能发展新技术和产品。因此,人们应该终身学习。正如谚语所说“活到老学到老“。为了跟随世界的脚步,人们必须终生学习,否则他们将落于人后。四、图表作文 第一段http:/4试题1The graph shows the cheese sales in the country X in the year 1997.

25、5% 15%Chinese Students 90% 5% 5%范文The table gives information about income sources between Chinese students and American students and we can clearly find they are totally different. In China, students get 90% of their money from their parents while in America, only 50% of students money is provided
26、by parents. In addition, Chinese students earn only 5% of their money from part-time jobs and 5% from fellowship or scholarship while income from these two resources for American students takes up 35% and 15% respectively of their total income.I think there are probably three reasons for their diffe
27、rences. First, because of the influence of different social and family values, Chinese students have formed the habit of asking for money from their parents while American students have developed more sense of being financially independent. Second, most Chinese parents devote too much care to their

38、e carefully and write an essay entitled “Cultures National and International“. In the essay you should 1) describe the picture and interpret its meaning, and 2) give your comment on the phenomenon. As is shown in the picture, a young American girl is wearing traditional Chinese dress and ornaments a
39、nd is smiling sweetly. It may be an ordinary picture, but it conveys deep and profound meaning: national culture is also international culture. Ever since we opened our door to the world, we have been attracted and influenced by things from other cultures, such as jeans, country music and fast food.
40、 We have shown such interest in them that some people, especially the younger generation, become crazy about them. The more exotic they are, the more fashionable they seem to be. Now, our national culture begins to show its charm and gain popularity all over the world. Our national costume, just as
41、shown in the picture, Beijing Opera, Cross Talk, for example, have won favor with a lot of foreigners. As national culture becomes international culture, people in the world better understand each other. We are all villagers in this global village. Mutual respect and understanding make this world a

When there is protection, the flower blooms beau
43、tifully. However, when exposed directly to rain and storm, the flower quickly withers. We can safely come to the conclusion that greenhouse flowers cannot withstand rain and storm. The same is true with our children. As the one-child policy is adopted in China, more and more parents overprotect thei

But when they leave home, they become disappointed and frustrated. Facing harsh things they have never experienced before, such as com
45、petition from peers, criticism from supervisors, pressure for deadlines and restriction for discipline, they will be at a loss, miserable or even desperate. In fact, the more protection they get from their parents, the less ability they acquire. Parents love for their children turns out to be a disa
46、ster. Children, like flowers, should be treated with care, but reasonable and sensible ways of doing things will help to bring about more fruitful results, if we not only love our children but also teach them how to love, our love will be passed down from generation to generation; if we not only sol
