Students’ Starting Their Own Undertakings
Nowadays there are many college students who choose to start their own undertakings instead of finding a job after graation. The government encourages this practice, and provides many preferential policies and facilitation measures for college students. This phenomenon has aroused great concern from the whole society.
However, why do so many college students take the way of starting their own undertakings? Firstly, college students are facing severe employment situations. Many college graates couldn’t find ideal jobs, which forces them to set up their own businesses. Moreover, some ambitious college students are not satisfied with being employed by others. They want to develop and prove their talents by running their own businesses. Besides, the government’s encouragement and the media’s reports on college students venture stars have stimulated more college students’ enthusiasm to take this way.
As for me, it is a good choice for college students to start their own undertakings. However, it is a very difficult cause, which needs firm determination, clear mind, ability to enre hardship and a feasible project. Therefore, think it over and make full preparation before you decide to start your own business.

1、北京奥运
The Beijing 2008 Summer Olympics logo has a single Chinese character on a traditional red Chinese seal. The English words "Beijing 2008" are written with a Chinese brush below it. At the bottom of the picture, there are the five rings of Olympic Games. The figure in the logo resembles a runner or dancer and the Chinese character "jing" which means "capital".
The image carries the message that today's China is not only a nation with a long and glorious history, but also one full of modern dynamics. First and foremost, this logo is a journey to the future, the emblem for China moving towards the 2008 Olympic Games. What is more, it is a symbol of the city's promise to make the Games a success. Accordingly, this emblem represents the heart of an ancient culture embracing the modern world, the spirit of a people moving towards a new destiny.
In my view, first of all, the Olympic Game represents the spirit of sports. Arms flung wide, it invites all people and the world to share in the city's history, beauty, energy, and its future. In addition, it is a gesture of friendship and hope that the community of nations will unite in peace through sports.
参考译文
北京2008年夏季奥运会会徽在传统的红色中国印章上刻着一枚汉字。汉字下方用中国毛笔书写了“北京2008”的英文字样。图画底部是奥运的五环标志。会徽中的人物象征了一位跑步者或舞蹈者，而汉字“京”的意思是“首都”。
这一会徽表达了当今的中国不仅个拥有悠久灿烂的历史国度，更是一个充满了现代活力的国家。首先，这一会徽是一次奔向未来之旅，是中国迈向2008年奥运会的象征。其次，它是北京承诺将成功举办奥运的标志。因此，这一会徽代表了一种悠久文化拥抱现代世界的信心，以及中国人民迈向新征程的精神。
在我看来，奥林匹克运动会首先代表了体育的精神。它伸展了双臂邀请全世界及其人民分享北京的历史、魅力、能量及未来。此外，它是友谊的象征，以及希望国际社会通过体育运动进而和平共处。
2、留学
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic Studying Abroad. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below:
1)目前很多中国学生出国留学，
2)出国留学的好处，
3)我的看法。
Nowadays, going abroad for studies is enjoying a striking popularity among adolescents. Importance should be attached to studying abroad.
There are a great many advantages of studying overseas. First and foremost, living and studying abroad offers students a different perspective of the world. On a university campus, international students are likely to encounter their counterparts from various countries and areas and are exposed to diverse ideas and values. What is more, overseas experience is the best opportunity for the real-life use of foreign languages. There is no better opportunity to improve second-language skills than living in the country in which it is spoken.
Generally peaking, it is my view that although going abroad is expensive and perhaps painful, the payoff is worthwhile. In the first place, in addition to knowledge, overseas students can gain precious experiences that those who stay at home will never have. Furthermore, overseas experience, frustrating and painful as it may be, is concive to the growth of adolescents.
3、网络
Directions: For this part you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic Internet. You should write at least 120 words and base your composition on the outline below:
1、 互联网使用的现状，
2、 大学生是否应该使用互联网，人们的看法不同，
3、 我的看法。
In recent years, people are developing an inseparable relationship with Internet. As is known to all, it is convenient for us to click the mouse when surfing on line, either to entertain ourselves or to meet the work’s needs.
On the one hand, no one denies that Internet is currently one of the most useful media in our daily life. As a college student, I get on line every day to exchange information through e-mails with my net friends. But on the other hand, a good many people admit that they are too much addicted to Internet to maintain a regular and wholesome lifestyle.
Thus, it is necessary for us to use Internet in a reasonable way and restrain from overinlgence. After all，Internet is invented to enrich our life, and to improve the efficiency of our work rather than shackle us with a chain.
4、考试
Directions: For this part you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic My Views on Examinations. You should write at least 120 words and base your composition on the outline below:
1)大学都用考试来衡量学生的成绩，
2)考生可能带来的副作用，
3)我对考试的看法。
In most colleges and universities the examination is used as a chief means of deciding whether a student succeeds or fails in mastering a particular subject. Although it does the job quite efficiently, its side effects are also enormous.
To begin with, examinations lower the standards of teaching. Since teachers are often judged by examination results, they are reced to training their students in exam techniques. No subjects can be taught successfully merely through being approached with intent to take examinations. In addition, the most undesirable effect is that examinations encourage bad study habits. As the examination score is the only criterion for his academic performance, a student is driven to memorize mechanically rather than to think creatively.
In fact, few of us admit that examinations can contribute anything really important to the students’ academic development. If that is the case, why cannot we make a change and devise something more efficient and reliable than examinations?
5、老师
Directions: For this part you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic The most unforgettable Teacher I ever Know. You should write at least 120 words and base your composition on the outline below:
1)我生活中最难忘的老师是……
2)为什么他(或她)令我难以忘怀，
3)结论。
In my life I have met a great many teachers who are really worth recalling. But perhaps the most unforgettable one I ever know is my English teacher.
What frequently brings back memories of my school teacher is his special qualities. First of all, 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 English language and literature, but also aroused our great interest in exploring something deeper in this field. Second, I was attracted by his lively wit. I remember that we students always anticipated his class with great eagerness because his lecture were humorously delivered, never failing to provoke chuckles or loud laughs.
Although it is nearly two 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.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to inform you that I wish to move into a new room next semester. I would prefer a single room, as I find the present sharing arrangement inconvenient.

In these circumstances, I find it difficult to concentrate on my studies, and I am falling behind in my assignments.
I am sure you will agree that the only solution is for me to move into a room of my own. Therefore, I would be grateful if you could find a single room for me, preferably not in the same building but as near to the college campus as possible.
Yours sincerely,
Li Ming

Credit Cards
Personal credit cards are becoming more common in China. Banks and other financial institutions are encouraging their customers to change the way they buy things. Credit cards， otherwise known as “plastic money”， are being offered on very good terms to encourage the change. Consumers will be able to “buy now， pay later”， and many see this as an advantage.
But people need to be careful. There are dangers associated with credit cards. Some people find it very easy to exceed their budget. They are tempted to purchase goods that they do not really need， and can become quickly overburdened by debt. The credit cards often charge a high rate of interest， which exacerbates the problems for these people.
However， used wisely credit cards can improve the quality of people’s lives. They can give people access to money to meet sudden unplanned expenses. Properly handled， they can let people control their expenditure and the monthly statements provide a record of where their money has gone.

On one hand, we can have a good rest and put our heart into study. On the other hand, we will have a good mood and enjoy being together. There are several ways to create and maintain a harmonious dormitory life. Firstly, you have to evaluate your life-style and try to get rid of your dirty habits, if there are any.

It sounds strange since young college students are usually intelligent, well-ecated phenomenon, aspirant and eager to bring their talent into full play. Then what underlies the strange phenomenon? There are several reasons for this. To begin with, nowadays college students aim too high. All they want are “good” jobs which could offer good salary, comfortable working conditions, high social status among others. Consequently, most college students are unwilling to accept vacant jobs they consider not “good” enough. Another reason is that there is a big gap between the majors some students study in school and the demands of vacant jobs. So companies think some students are not fit for the jobs. Solution to the problem requires efforts on both the society and the students. The companies should value the students, talent and knowledge while the latter should not merely aim at material gains. They should be down-to–earth in building up their career. Furthermore, they should face their weak points so as to improve themselves and be more competent. 点评：本预测题为社会热点话题。近年来大学生就业难日益成为各级政府及社会各方面关注的焦点，媒体也广泛报道了大学生就业形势严峻，呼吁全社会共同努力；此外，该预测题也与大学生就业密切相关，也是四级作文选题重点之一。 Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic of Credit Cards.

Aid-ecation has been beneficial in two aspects. On the one hand, college volunteers are really devoted to the cause. They have opened the eyes of students in underdeveloped regions to the outside world by bringing them new knowledge and thoughts. As a result, they are extremely well-received by the children there. On the other hand, college students have received a rigorous training by adapting to the harsh living conditions. They are enjoying the appreciation and no-distance friendship from the children. What’s more, they are greatly inspired by the moving and tireless spirit of the children. In my opinion, China’s ecational development can’t be isolated from each indivial and we college students should take the lead in response to the appeal for offering aid to children in poor areas. Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below: 1. 现在某些高校校园禁止车辆驶入， 2. 这种规定的考虑， 3. 谈谈你的看法。 Should cars be allowed into College Campus? With the rapid development of our national economy, private cars have become in large number; of course, quite a few cars are heavily driven into College Campus. In a significant way, these cars do not take up students’ places for study, but actually affect their daily life and study-- for instance, this crowd of cars may make noise and emit filthy gas to choke us to death. And the campus is jammed with lines of cars and seems to be parking lot instead of an academic institute. So cars have been strictly prohibited into many College Campuses. It seems that this is not convenience to some persons, indeed, but this is for the sake of our safety. Thus when someone enjoys convenience from modern tools, don't forget that it is dangerous to the students in the College Campus. Therefore, I agree that cars are not allowed into College Campus. By and large, with the price of cars falling significantly, cars will enter average families, and most Chinese will enjoy a luxurious lifestyle in their life. However, they are still prohibited to drive their cars into College Campus, which , I think, is a hard truth in the eyes of most people. 点评：随着人们物质生活的提高，私家车发展迅猛，越来越多的私家车停放在校园，由此产生了一些问题，如空间被占、噪音污染、环境污染等，为此许多学校禁止车辆驶入校园，本预测题与2006年1月名校校园是否对外开放相仿，值得关注。 Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic Choosing an Occupation. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese: 1. 选择职业是一个人要面对的众多难题之一。 2. 需要花时间去选择职业。 3. 选择职业时可以向多人寻求建议和帮助。 Choosing an Occupation One of the most important problems a young person faces is deciding what to do. There are some people, of course, who from the time they are six years old “know” that they want to be doctors or pilots or fire fighters, but the majority of us do not get around to making a decision about an occupation or career until somebody or something forces us to face the problem. Choosing an occupation takes time, and there are a lot of things you have to think about as you try to decide what you would like to do. You may find that you will have to take special courses to qualify for a particular kind of work, or you may find out that you will need to get actual work experience to gain enough knowledge to qualify for a particular job. Fortunately, there are a lot of people you can turn to for advice and help in making your decision. At most schools, there are teachers who are professionally qualified to give you detailed information about job qualifications. And you can talk over your ideas with family members and friends who are always ready to listen and to offer suggestions.

【范文】The Prevalence of Western Fast Food
Fast food is becoming more and more popular in China, especially among children and teenagers. Today, nothing is more representative of the fast pace of modern society than fast food.
There are several reasons for its popularity. For one thing, it is fast and convenient. Go into a fast food restaurant, and your food will be ready in a minute. Precious time won’t be wasted waiting-in-line to order or waiting at your table for your food to serve. For another, its popularity is also attributed to the clean food, the excellent service and the comfortable environment of the fast food restaurants in American style.
I think that fast food isn’t healthy enough because it doesn’t compose a balanced diet and is low in nutrition. Fast food is only a good choice when you are in a hurry and we should turn to it only once in a while.

1、晕屏症—Cybersickness
随着智能时代的到来，越来越多的人不自觉的成为了新科技的奴隶，智能手机的使用尤能说明这一点。无论是上下班的路上，还是赋闲在家，无论是休闲娱乐，还是聊天购物，智能手机总是与我们形影不离，对于智能手机带给人们的便利之处我们不可否认，但是其弊端也日益显现，看看“低头族”“僵尸族”这些网络热词吧，从中我们不难发现无时无刻使用智能手机给我们造成的危害，但这些危害常常为沉迷于智能手机的人们所忽略。分析利弊，是英语四级作文的关键，只知其利，不知其弊，也不是一篇完美的作文。下面我们就来分享一篇文章——刷屏刷到吐你得“晕屏症”了(Do you suffer from cybersickness It causes nausea while scrolling on phones)，认识到智能手机可能会带给我们的危害，希望它能警醒我们，让我们能够更加合理的使用智能手机。
Do you suffer from cybersickness It causes nausea while scrolling on phones
The rise of mobile phones has been blamed for a number of social ills, but your smart phone may also be making you physically sick as well. Scientists have identified a condition called “cybersickness”, which they say is the digital version of motion sickness. The phenomenon, which affects up to 80 percent of the population who own smartphones or tablets, leads to feelings of nausea and unsteadiness. It is caused by seeing fast motion on a screen and covers anything from a car chase in a film to scrolling through web pages on your phone. The more realistic the visual content is, the higher your chances of getting cybersickness. The condition was identified in a piece in the New York Times in which British and US experts said that it needed addressing. Cyriel Diels, a cognitive psychologist and human factors researcher at Coventry University’s centre for Mobility and Transport, said: “It’s a fundamental problem that’s kind of been swept under the carpet in the tech instry.” “It’s a natural response to an unnatural environment.” Motion sickness leaves sufferers feeling ill because they feel movement in your muscles and your inner ear but do not see it. The mismatch in digital sickness is the opposite—you see movement on the screen but do not feel it. The effect is the same and the symptoms include a headache, wanting to throw up, confusion and the need to sit down. Often cybersickness manifests itself in a subtle way and sufferers put it down to stress or eyestrain.Steven Rauch, a professor of otolaryngology at Harvard Medical School, said: “Your sense of balance is different than other senses in that it has lots of inputs.” When those inputs don’t agree, that’s when you feel dizziness and nausea “Some studies that have been carried out into cybersickness found that women are more susceptible than men, the New York Times reported. Those who have Type A’ personalities—meaning they are confident and assertive—are more likely to suffer from cybersickness as well. Among those who have reported experiencing the condition have been video gamers who spend hours playing fast paced games. Cinema-goers have struggled with some scenes in action movies which have quick cuts and fast editing—and virtual reality has made the problem even worse. Jonathan Weinstein, a professor at the Kanbar Institute for Film and Television at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts, said: “The idea is to get audiences to feel like participants in the action rather than outside observers of the action. Engineers at Oculus VR, the virtual headset manufacturer, have admitted that digital motion sickness is one of their biggest problems.

【译文】
移动电话的广泛使用被指引发了诸多社会弊端，不仅如此，手中的智能机也会让你觉得身体不适。科学家们把这种状态称为“晕屏”，是晕车的电子版。80%的手机和平板用户会晕屏，他们会有恶心、眩晕的感觉。造成晕屏的原因是浏览了含移动内容的屏幕，可能是看了有追车镜头的电影，也可能是浏览了手机上滚动的内容页。视觉内容越真实，晕屏的发生率就越高。《纽约时报》的一篇文章报道了这种症状。英美专家在文章中称，这个问题需要着手解决。认知心理学家、考文垂大学移动运输中心的人为因素研究员西里尔·蒂尔斯表示：“对弊端置之不理算得上是科技产业一个最根本的问题了。”“这是对非自然环境作出的自然反应。”晕动症会令患者感到肌肉和内耳在移动，但实际上并没有看到它们在移动。而晕屏症恰恰相反——你看到屏幕在移动，实际上却感受不到。二者的影响却是相同的，其症状为头疼、想吐、思绪混乱，需要静坐下来。晕屏症状通常不易察觉，患者会以为是因为压力大或者视觉疲劳引起的。哈佛医学院耳鼻喉科教授史蒂芬·劳奇表示：“与其他感官不同，当有大量信息输入时，人的平衡感会发生改变。”“当这些信息输入没有被感官接受，你就会觉得头晕、恶心。”《纽约时报》称，一些有关晕屏的研究发现，女性比男性更容易晕屏。A型人格，即果断自信的人，也更容易晕屏。“有晕屏症状的通常是连续几小时玩快节奏视频游戏的玩家。看动作片的观众在看到快速剪辑和切换的镜头时会不舒服，这是因为虚拟实境会加重晕屏。纽约大学提斯克艺术学院康贝尔影视研究所的教授乔纳森·温斯坦说：“动作片就是想让观众身临其境，而不是当一个局外人。”虚拟实境游戏头盔制造商“欧酷拉”公司的工程师们坦言，晕屏也是他们面临的最大问题之一。
