It is indeed a tough question for him: wha
10、t is happiness? Making a huge sum of money, or winning true love, or keeping good health, or what? The picture is fairly thought-provoking(发人深省), which intends to convey to us this message: Due attention should be paid to the constant topic of humanhappiness.We can easily recognize the significance
11、of attitude in terms of happiness. On the one hand, some have suffered a great deal but generally remain happy. Take the victims of Wen Chuan earthquake as an example, they lost their families and even something more precious, but they eventually stepped out of the pain to rebuild their home. On the
12、 other hand, people who have a relatively easy and comfortable life, and yet are essentially unhappy. Without a positive attitude or the determination to find the little happiness of life, you are destined to(注定) be grievous, no matter what kind of situation you are in.Considering all the points dis
13、cussed above, it is advisable that we highly value optimism and apply it in our studies and work. We are, therefore, supposed to take a rational attitude. Happiness is an attitude, not a condition, which lies in the unswerving efforts(坚持不懈的努力) to complete ones life.如图所示,一个男孩沉思着“幸福”的真正含义。这对他确实是很难回答,什
14、么是幸福呢?挣大钱,赢得真爱,永葆健康,还是其它?这个图片令人沉思,它试图传递给我们这样一个信息:我们应该适当关注人类这个永恒的话题-幸福。我们很容易就能认识到在“幸福”这个话题中“态度”的重要性。一种情况,一些人遭受了很多,但仍然很幸福。就拿汶川地震的受害者为例,他们失去了家园,甚至是更加宝贵的东西,但最终还是走出痛苦,重建了家园。而有些人过着相对惬意舒适的生活,但一点儿都不快乐。可见,如果你没有积极乐观的态度和寻找生活中小幸福的决心,不管你身处何境,都注定是悲伤的。综上所述,我们应该重视乐观的态度并把它应用到我们的学习和工作中。因此,我们应该有一个合理的理念:幸福是一种态度,而不是一种条件
15、,它的实现在于通过不断地努力让自己的人生更加完美。【中西方文化合璧】As is shown in the picture, a young American girl is wearing traditional Chinese dress and ornaments and 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
16、our door to the world, we have attracted and influenced by things from other cultures, such as jeans, country music and fast food. We have shown such interest in them that some people, especially the younger generation, become crazy about them. The more exotic(异国风情的) they are, the more fashionable t
17、hey seem to be. Now, national culture began to show its charm and gain popularity(受到欢迎) all over the world. Our national costume, just as shown in the picture, Beijing Opera, Cross Talk, for example, have won favor with(得到支持) a lot of foreigners.As national culture becomes international culture, peo
18、ple in the world better understand each other. We are all villagers in this global village. Mutual respect and understanding (相互尊重、理解)make this world a better place to live in.如图所示,一个年轻的美国女孩穿着传统的中国服饰,笑容甜美。图片或许很简单,但它表达了深刻的含义:民族文化也是世界的文化。自从改革开放以来,外来的文化,例如:牛仔裤、乡村音乐及快餐等吸引并影响着我们。我们对这些充满兴趣,尤其是年轻人为其疯狂。他们越是
19、异国风情,就越是时尚流行。如今,我们的本族文化开始展现其魅力,并且在全世界范围内受到欢迎。例如,图片中展示的民族服装、京剧、相声受到了很多外国人的喜爱。民族文化也是世界的,所以全世界的人们能够更好的理解对方。我们都是地球村的村民,相互的尊重和理解让这个地球更适宜居住。On a tree sprout four branches, which are symbols of academic abilities(学术能力), practical abilities(实践能力), organization abilities(组织能力) and acting abilities(表演能力). A s
20、aw, a symbol of education, violently cuts down three branches, leaving the only one symbolizing academic abilities.This picture illustrates a current problematic standard practice in education which stresses only academic learning. High scores in examinations or rather academic success is apparently
21、 the main pursuit by most students, parents and teachers. In china, a great educational background is always considered as a sure ticket to a lucrative career(有钱途的职业) and a successful life. Children, consequently, are expected to go along the same growth path from a famous kindergarten to a good pri
22、mary school to a key middle school and then hopefully to a well-known university. If a child shows no interest in traditional learning, even though he is talented in other fields, he will be considered as an idle person without big dreams and be severely punished.This education principle was fruitfu
23、l(有成效的) when university students were highly valued by the job market but no longer productive since the job market has greatly changed. The job market requires more than academic ability nowadays. People with admirable educational background will also fail because of lack of other abilities. There
24、are many forms of abilities for a person, and wed better strive for a balanced development.一棵树上生出四个枝杈,分别象征着学术能力、实践能力、组织能力和表演能力。一把象征教育的锯生硬地把三个分枝砍掉了,只剩下了一个象征学术能力的枝丫。这幅图说明了当前在教育界,标准的惯例是有问题的:只强调学术学习。很明显,大部分的学生、父母、老师最主要追求的是考试中取得高分以及学术上的成功。在中国,好的教育背景一直被认为是高新工作和成功人生的入场券。所以孩子们都期待能有这样人生:从著名的幼儿园到知名的小学,再到重点高中,
25、然后希望考上名牌大学。如果一个孩子对传统的教育不感兴趣,尽管他在其它领域有天赋,人们也会认为他是一个没有梦想无所事事的人,还会受到严厉的惩罚。当职场赋予大学生高得价值是,这个教育理念就是有益的,但因为职场有了很大的变化,这一理念已经不再有益了。现在的职场需要的不仅是学术能力,有着非凡教育背景的人因为缺乏其它能力也会失败。一个人有各种各样的能力,我们最好追求发展的平衡。【让座】In the thought-provoking picture, a young man and a lady is sitting on the chair in a waiting room that is allo
26、cated specially for mothers with baby. Regrettably(令人遗憾的是), they simply neglect the mother with a baby in her right arm and a big bag in her left hand standing just beside them with great efforts. The scene will set ordinary citizens to think seriously about the nations painfully declining moral cli
27、mate(道德风尚的衰败).Some of this can be attributed to the lack of morality(道德缺乏), a problem shown particularly in the younger generation. Their sense of moral standards (道德感标准)seems to be withering(下降) although their material comforts have been considerably enhanced. What makes matters even worse is the f
28、act that such misdeeds as spitting, picking flowers in public gardens or making noises in public places are becoming so pervasive(普遍的) that they are likely to be taken for granted(习惯成自然) by the public. With todays worsening morality, social bonds (社会联系)have been weakened, replaced by a greater empha
29、sis on self. That is why new ideas must come forward to improve the nations moral climate though the challenge cannot be underestimated(低估).Moral decline will not be reversed(扭转)until we find new ways to improve our moral standards. For adults, we can make use of every chance to remind young people
30、of the importance of good manners, both as a competent citizen(合格公民) in modern society and as a model for them to follow. Only in this way can the moral climate of our nation be improved, and we sincerely wish that the young man in the picture could realize that he has sit on a “wrong” seat.在这个法人深省的
31、图片中,一个年轻人和以为女士坐在母婴室的座位上。遗憾的是,他们忽视掉了旁边站着的一位母亲,她右手抱着孩子左手提着个大袋子,非常吃力。这个场景让我们不禁沉思整个民族道德风气的衰败,令人痛心。导致这种现象的一些原因可以归因为道德缺失,这一现象在年轻人当中尤为明显。尽管人们物质上的舒适度提高了,但道德感却下降了。更加糟糕的是,一些不良行为,比如说吐痰,在公园采花,在公共场所大声喧哗等越来越普遍,而且公众逐渐习惯成自然。今天随着道德感的下降,社会联系也已经弱化,取而代之的是更加明显的以自我为中心。这也是为什么我们必须提出要提高全民的道德风尚,尽管挑战是不容低估的。只有找到提高道德标准的方法,我们才能逆
32、转道德感的下降。对于成年人,作为现代社会的合格公民和年轻人仿效的榜样,我们应该利用每次机会提醒他们良好习惯的重要性。只有通过这种方式,国家的道德风尚才能被提高。我们也真诚的希望,图片中的年轻人能够意识到他坐错了座位。【环境保护】The cartoon presents the Earth with a personified human face that seems quite unhappy. An examination of the picture immediately reveals that the source of its mood is the air pollution
33、resulting from a huge number of automobiles spread around its surface.The cartoon, no doubt, aims at alarming humans of the heavy load we have exerted on Earth by our insatiable(贪得无厌的) production and usage of automobiles. However, the majority of people merely indulge in(沉迷于) the celebration of the
34、convenience brought by cars, while forgetting or simply neglecting their harmful impact on the atmosphere. Admittedly(无可否认地), there are various factors contributing to the current worldwide air pollution, but it is undeniable that(不可否认地) the exhaust from automobiles is categorized as one of the majo
35、r elements.I would like to make the following proposals to solve this problem: firstly, we should apply the most cutting-edge technologies(前沿技术) in order to adopt new forms of energy(新能源) as substitutes for(取代) fossil fuels(矿物燃料). It should also be guaranteed that the clean energy be inexpensive so
36、that it can be widely accepted. Besides, there should be attempts to develop possible transportation means, so that citizens can be diverted from(摆脱)dependence on cars. In short, it is humans responsibility to resume(恢复,唤回)clean air for Earth.这幅漫画以拟人的方式呈现地球,它的脸显得非常不高兴。仔细观察这幅图就会发现其郁闷来自于空气污染,这是由于其表面上有
37、着无数车辆在行驶。毫无疑问,这幅漫画意在向人们敲响警钟,即人类永不知足的生产和使用汽车给我们的地球带来了巨大的负担。但是,大部分人却沉溺于汽车带来方便,而忘记了或者是忽略了其对大气层的负面影响。诚然,有很多因素导致了现在的全球空气污染问题,但是不能否认的是汽车废气被归为最重要的因素之一。为了解决这个问题,我想提出以下建议:第一,我们应该运用最先进的技术从而以新能源替代化石燃料。同时,我们要确保清洁能源的价格低廉以得到大众的接受。此外,我们应该尝试发展各种交通方式,这样市民们能够摆脱对于汽车的依赖。简而言之,人类有责任来恢复地球的清洁空气。城镇居民人口变化What is clearly pres
38、ented in the above chart is the different numbers of urban residents and rural population among 1990,2000 and 2010.The number of urban residents climbed steadily(稳步上升) from 300 million in 1990 to 660 million or so in 2010,while rural population decreased slightly(缓慢下降) from about 820 million to 680
39、million or so in the same period.It is not difficult to come up with(提出)some possible factors accounting for(解释)this trend. On the one hand, with the rapid development of economy and society, people in mounting numbers crowd into cities in search of employment, a decent living and the excitement of
40、urban life recently. On the other hand, the economy in the rural districts is comparative(相对而言)less developed and thus the opportunity to make money and pursue their future is as well lean. As a result, an increasing number of folks are trying to escape this destiny by flocking into(大量涌入) the urban
41、areas.Given the analyses above, I firmly believe that such established trend(现有趋势)will surely continue for quite a while in the forthcoming years and due importance should be attached to this evident situation.精彩译文:图中清楚的描述出在1990,2000以及2010年间,城市和农村人口数据上的变化。从1990年到2010年,城镇人口的数量由3亿稳步上升到6.6亿,而同一时期农村人口从8
42、.2亿缓慢下降到了6.8亿。想出一些可能的因素来解释这种趋势并不难。一方面,随着社会和经济的快速发展,最近越来越多的人涌入城市寻找工作、体面的生活及城市生活的激情。另一方面,农村地区的经济相对不发达,所以赚钱和追求未来的机会也很少。因此,越来越多的乡下人为了逃避这种命运而大批来到城市。综上分析,我坚信这种趋势在未来的几年中将会持续下去,而且我们应该重视这种明显的形势。大学生兼职比例In the bar chart, it shows the changes of the proportion of the students having part-time jobs during the fo
43、ur years study in college. The proportion increases slightly(缓慢增长)from the first year to the third year, however, the fourth year has witnessed a fast increase, surging to(高达)88.24%.There is no denying that(毫无疑问) taking a part-time job certainly brings about both advantages and disadvantages.

45、ome money, which helps to unload problems(解决问题) may also arise. The main job of college students is to study, not to work. If they have part-time jobs, they may have to reduce their time for study. As a result, they may find it hard to adjust to what the college expects from them as well as their em
46、ployers expectation, and finally, they may fall behind or fail in their studies.Due to the analysis above, you have to strike a balance(公平处理) between your study and the job. Study is your major task while a part time job is a minor one though work experience is desirable.柱状图展示出在大学四年中学生从事兼职比例的变化。从大一到
47、大三比例小幅上升,然而,到了大四快速上升到了88.24%。毫无疑问,做兼职工作肯定不仅有益处而且也会有弊端。首先,学生通过做兼职能够学会如何与人相处,也会更好的了解社会。其次,参加兼职工作能提供给学生宝贵的机会,把从书本上所学的应用到实践中去。最后,学生可以赚钱来解决问题。但学生最主要的事情是学习而并非工作。如果参加兼职工作,学习的时间就会减少。结果他们发现很难调整学校对和老板对自己的期望,最后可能在学习中落后或不及格。综上所析,你应该在学习和工作中寻找一个平衡点。尽管工作经验很难得,学习始终是主要任务,兼职是第二位的。手机用户数量变化Developed and developing countries witnessed different rates of growth in mobile-phone subscription from 2000 to 2008.
