What is success? What is success? Different people have different opinions on this issue. Some people think that if you can make a lot of money, you will succeed. Others think that success means holding an important government position.
There are still some people who think that whoever gets a high academic title will succeed. Obviously, there are many different opinions. In order to succeed, you should first have perseverance and Diligence, you know, no matter what you do, there are always two possible results: success and failure.
When you fail, you should not lose the opposite confidence, you must build up your confidence and work harder. You should always remember that perseverance is the mother of success and diligence is the key to success. In addition, you should pay great attention to your working methods.
You must constantly sum up your experience and improve your work efficiency. Finally, this is very important. If you can get along well with your colleagues, care for each other and help each other, if you follow these principles, you will surely achieve extraordinary success in the future.
In my opinion, success means making brilliant achievements in your work, that is, making outstanding contributions to the development of the country and bringing happiness to the people. So my conclusion is that, Even if a person has made great progress in his career, I don't think he has any reason to be proud.
中文翻译:
什么是成功什么是成功不同的人对这个问题有不同的看法有些人认为一个人如果能赚大钱就成功了其他人认为成功意味着担任一个重要的政府职位还有一些人认为谁获得了很高的学术头衔,谁就成功了这一点显然有很大的不同意见成功为了成功,你首先要有毅力和勤奋,你知道,无论你做什么,总有两种可能的结果:成功和失败当你失败时,你不应该失去相反的信心,你必须树立你的信心,更加努力地工作。你应该始终牢记,毅力是成功之母,勤奋是成功的关键。此外,你应该非常注意你的工作方法,你必须不断地总结你的经验,提高你的工作效率。
最后,这一点很重要如果你能和你的同事相处融洽,互相关心,互相帮助,如果你遵循这些原则,你一定会在未来取得非凡的成功在我看来,成功意味着在工作中取得辉煌的成就,也就是说,为国家的发展做出了杰出的贡献,给人民带来了幸福,所以我的结论是,即使一个人在自己的事业上取得了很大的进步,我认为他没有理由骄傲。
外研社写作比赛样题范文 第二篇
Emotions are miscellaneous, such as optimism and pessimisism; merriment and sorrow; excitement and despondency;... Human beings are inherently
emotional and emotions do play a significant role in our actions and attitudes. We may encounter some personal tragedies or sufferings, but the actions and attitudes we take might differ. For example, being moderately positive means that we can keep a sanguine outlook on our experience; means that we can transmute the negative feelings into a positive attitude towards our frustration; means that we can look the unpleasant matters in a positive light and tackle them with great
resilience. Personally, I espouse bing a moderately positive inpidual.
Hellen Keller, who was blind and deaf, became a celebrated writers with unflagging belief in herself and unyielding willpower. In front of Hellen Keller, there lied two options: either live live to its fullest or wither away like the autumn leaves. Instead of capitulating to the sheer darkness and silence, she harbored prodigious fortitude to vanquish the personal trageies and sufferings. Under the assistance of her teacher Anne, she learnt Braille and writing. After reading a sea of books, Hellen Keller soaked up all the quintessence and wisdom of other writers and attempted to write her own. The spirit of never being pessimistic sustained her in the most darkest hours of her life and she rose like a shinging star in the firmament of writing. Her teacher also held a positive belief in Hellen so she resolved to help Hellen face life positively.
There are innumerable other examplars of being moderately positive. Thomas Edison, by dint of a postive mindset and unwavering pursuit, invented the most endurable and suitable material to make the incandescent bulb which marked the inauguration of the electrical era. Madame Curie, by virtue of a optimistic attitude and steadfast tenacity, extracted an infinitesimal amount of radium from tons of impure materials after three-year-and-nine-month experiment and advocated to use radioisotope to cure cancer which rendered humanity a powerful weapon to fight against the fatal disease. Hua Luogeng, a renowned C, metamorphosed into a math master by holding a positive outlook and unswerving doggedness.
It's not hard to find the common denominator of the brilliant and reverent giants: a positive outlook towards the sufferings and failures.
Being moderately positive will arm us with an effective weapon to repel the enemies of negative feelings that will hold us back and become a stumbling block on the way ahead. It will bolster up our belief and confidence in the face of the mishaps and torments and we will possess a more optimistic perspective to the life tragedies. Being moderately
positive is like a beacon light of hope which will illuminate our way ahead and resembles a lighthouse which show us the path when we are disoriented. Then all the darkness will fade away and crumble into dust. Being
moderately positive is the inner force which propels you froward in the teeth of setback and hurdles. We will ooze confidence and persistence no matter how tough the situation is.
Nevertheless, we are supposed to put the positive mindset in perspective, which means we need to understand it in the appropriate and right way. Here the positive mindset is a moderately positive one, not overly optimistic. Anything that is too much will backfire. The last emperor of Shang Dynasty was being too sanguine and optimistic and believed that his kingdom was impregnable and was never to be toppled by others. Thus he sank into the debauched and promiscuous lifestyle, listened to the malign suggestions of his diabolical officers and precluded any good suggestions from being sent to him. The decadence and depravity eventually led to his downfall and his power was nullified and compromised. This renders us a good lesson that we shall never become overly optimistic about our lives, works, conditions and circumstances because undue and inordinate optimism led to the complacent and smug mentality. It is always counterproductive.
Inpiduals should always strive for the better selves rather than rest and wallow in self-contentment when the achievements are made. That is why being overly optimistic should be deprecated and criticized.
So, what we need to do is to differentiate the positive mind from the overly-optimistic one, for there is a blurry line between these two. Our capacity to distinguish between them must be acuqired by constant failures and attempts. Always being moderately positive is not an easy task and trying to keep it is even much harder. Sometimes we will become disheartened and lose all the hope; sometimes we will enjoy the
exhilaration of being successful and then get obsessed with the current achievements. Through failures, we can have a much clearer interpretation of being moderately postive. And this is a long process that should be covered step by step and brick by brick.
Can being positive backfaire? I cannot answer in the affirmative. But add xxxmoderatelyxxx to the sentence: Can being moderately positive backfire? My answer is definitely NO.
Variety is the Spice of Life
Nowadays,the transportation are more and more convenient,we can go someplace and visit some friends easily,but an increasing number of people always feel body is close,but how far is it from one soul to another?We feel alone,because we do not care much about what is happening around the world if it does not affect our personal my opinion, life is fine and enjoyable, yet you must learn to enjoy your fine is stupid to just care about should know that variety is the spice of it is important to know events happening around the world, though sometimes they are unlikely to affect our daily life.

快乐的生活自然是我们追求的目标。可你曾想到,挫折更是生活中的重要部分。可以说,没有挫折就没有成功。
记得一次,学校开学了,我十分想买到这一册的英语磁带。但我独自在街上转悠了半天,各大书店都找遍了,售货员都说:“货卖完了,要买明天才有!”我十分沮丧地走在街上,因为明天就是星期一了,没时间上街了。正当我灰心丧气之时,一家音像店吸引了我,它门外的牌子上写着有我需要的磁带。我欣喜若狂,急忙走了进去,果然看见那磁带正躺在架子上。我急忙问老板娘这磁带多少钱?他热情地说:“十八元!不多了,一进货就卖完了,很好卖!”我注意起着盒子来,觉得盒子怎么这么轻,封面的颜色一点也不鲜艳。记得以前买来的可是又鲜亮又结实。哪想这么粗糙?在我怀疑之际,望见了老板娘那似笑不笑的样子,便问她:“还有没有新的,也就是每打开过的?”“没有了,都一样的,厂家出来就这样!”他答得很干脆,说着又撩撩他的头发,很自在的样子。我翻来覆去,心想:这不会是假的吧?但有那么像,而且好不容易才找到的……那个老板娘看起来应该不会出售假货吧!况且封面上还写了“假冒必究”四字。我最终把十八元钱递给了她,拿着那盒磁带走了。
在回家的路上,我更是忐忑不安,打开盒子。我突然看见磁带上印着“人民教育出品”,我的天哪!应该是“外研社出品”才对!因为我们使用的教材就是外研社出版的。我的心忽然沉重了起来,急匆匆地赶回家,想看看这盒磁带与正版的磁带有什么不同。我一回家,便找来了我以前使用过的英语磁带对证。当我把两盒磁带放在一起时,我吓了一跳。它们产生了鲜明的对比!不仅新买的磁带颜色没有正版的鲜亮、清晰,就连防伪标志也不同。外壳、磁带质量也没有正版的那么好。我的心彻底凉了,原来我花十八元钱买了一盒假磁带。
我第一反应就是想马上与那个老板娘退货、举报假货,但妈妈了解到情况告诉我:“干那些音像店的人是说不清的,店里没几样东西是正版的,大家都买着买盗版的。”
我又遭到了挫折,我怎么也想不到相貌堂堂、语言优美的一个人竟是个骗子。或许我的思想太幼稚了,没有了解社会。但正是这次挫折,也让我得到许多。
我也明白了生活中处处有挫折,挫折虽然会给人带来痛苦,但挫折之后会给人带来成功。
外研社写作比赛样题范文 第四篇
事业看精神,技高艺精方能气定神闲。提升机关干部队伍战斗力,必须从锤炼过硬本领上提升队伍的精气神。在新时代新征程中,面对“两个大局”,只有干部队伍能力过硬,才能在改革发展中“任凭风浪起,稳坐钓鱼船”;只有干部队伍本领高强,才能在攻坚克难中有宠辱不惊的淡定和风过无痕的从容。
为了培养专业能力、专业精神,增强干部队伍适应新时代中国特色社会主义发展要求的能力,大赛着眼于机关党员能力素质提升,坚持开展比赛和试题测验相结合,着力强化机关干部写作能力和综合素质。大赛建立电脑作答、限时比赛、多轮评卷等比赛机制,要求选手完成起草“领导讲话”“调研报告”“工作意见”三个项目,着力打造“机关公文写作铁人三项比赛”。在试题设计和答题要求方面,大赛注重政治理论和实际操作,要求参赛党员干部熟悉党的理论、了解法规政策、吃透决策部署、把握省情域况、选定文种题材、提炼主旨观点、构思框架层次、运用精准语言,着力增强机关党员干部的政策理解能力、决策执行能力、服务发展能力、改革创新能力和综合文稿能力,促使参赛党员干部综合素质得到有效提升。
来自省政府办公厅的参赛选手杨威说,“参加首次大赛后的这四年,我深深感到自己对中央和省委决策部署的把握更加全面,思维视野得到拓展,能力水平得到提升。”
5年来,大赛为一大批优秀年轻干部提供了一个展示个人写作才干的“舞台”,40岁以下党员干部占参赛党员的,的获奖人员得到晋升,党员干部队伍得到良好训练。
“壮筋骨” 从实践上锻炼队伍
骨头硬气,人才有志气。党员干部是党和国家事业的中坚力量,担当干事既是党员干部的职业素养,更是价值取向。自古实践出真知,锻炼长才干。在新时代新征程中,党员干部必须在实战实训中补钙质、壮筋骨,在实践实际中经风雨、见世面,努力担当起该担当的责任,练兵备战、以战提能、在战斗中学习、在工作中成长,敢于在新征途不断跨越新的“娄山关”“腊子口”。
大赛充分发挥培训平台和比赛“擂台”作用,着力提升党员干部贯彻落实省委决策部署的能力和水平。邀请长期从事政策研究、直接服务省委中心工作的领导和专家,详细讲解省委推动经济社会高质量发展、推进乡村振兴战略、促进区域协调发展等政策要义。
教育引导机关党员干部始终在研究状态下工作、在工作状态下学习,是大赛的重要功能。如省委组织部长期坚持“部长带处长、处长带干部”深入开展调研,每年撰写形成高质量调研成果20篇以上,并以此为指导,扎实推进理论武装、班子换届、基层党建、引才聚智等重点任务。
近年来,大赛紧扣打赢脱贫攻坚战、激励干部职工担当作为、转变作风服务群众等重点工作进行命题,深入检验党员干部认识问题、分析问题和解决问题的能力和水平,引导青年干部在实际工作中进一步转作风、办实事、求实效,勇于直面经济社会中的热点、痛点、难点问题,善于“下深水”,敢于“涉险滩”,探索改革发展新特点,总结服务民生好经验,推动党员干部服务推进“五位一体”总体布局和“四个全面”战略布局等各项工作能力和水平有效提升。
参赛“攻略”听听他们怎么说
四川省机关公文写作技能大赛,是我省机关党建和群团工作围绕中心、建设队伍、服务群众的重要举措。5年来,全省各级机关干部积极参加不同类别的专项竞赛。经过专家评委严格规范评审,一大批优秀选手脱颖而出。为激励和引导更多机关干部踊跃参与今后的相关赛事,特邀请部分获奖选手和阅卷评委分享他们的体会与经验。
优秀选手说——
◆周正彬(四川省科学技术协会办公室干部,第一届大赛经验总结类一等奖获得者)
公文写作“五字诀”
机关公文写作大赛是一个以文会友的平台,是一个公文写作的“擂台”,更是一个练就本领的“舞台”。我们在这里碰撞思维、激扬文字,同一个题目、同一份答卷,用精美的文字演绎出绚烂篇章,更像是一次美丽的邂逅,与写作相约,遇见公文之美。回想起来,公文写作“五字诀”值得与大家共勉。
一要把握立意“新”。题目多读一次、现象多想一层、问题多思一遍,准确把握题目的主旨、行文的主题、文章的主干,力求“想到别人想不到”的核心要义。
二要做到结构“精”。“文似观山不喜平”。在把握体例的前提下,重在结构精巧、材料精当、文笔精妙,夹叙夹议中突出文章的逻辑、段落的层次。
三要注重文风“实”。准确鲜明地表达观点、阐述论点,用新词、说新话,力戒“假大空”的套话。引入身边的事实、素材和数据说话,多写一些平实的话,真正把事情想明白,把道理讲清楚。
四要把握文章“简”。公文之美,在于结构简约、层次简化、语言简洁。开篇“说什么”开门见山,有理有据,有力有节;文中“做什么”简洁明了,可长可短,有张有弛。
五要功在平时“写”。写在赛场,功在平时,读千遍不如写一遍。胸怀大局、关注大势,转换格局、谋全川事,从多写多练中积累常识、从经典论著中增长学识、从大事要事中增长见识。
◆章津铨(四川省委xxx部干部,第五届大赛领导讲话类一等奖获得者)
多学习 多积累 多练笔
四川省第五届机关公文写作技能大赛,既是组织全省机关干部深入开展党史学习教育的有力举措,也是指引我们立足“三新”投身社会主义现代化四川建设伟业的生动实践。
从现实来看,我认为写好一篇公文要从“三个问题”出发。
第一问:为何写材料——要充分理清文章的“思想”。胸中有大义,笔下有乾坤。首先要做到对xxx、省委重要会议与指示精神的学习领会,充分理解写作意图,准确把握任务目标,突破思维定式,创新思路立意,在文章思想上力争做到“人无我有,人有我优”。
第二问:材料写什么——要广泛组织文章的“血肉”。基础不牢,地动山摇。在确立了文章思路以后,就要多方面收集能够支撑文章论点的案例、数据,这将组成文章的基础。必要时还要开展多方调研,确保全部基础要素客观准确、支撑有力。
第三问:怎么写材料——要创新搭建文章的“骨骼”。万事俱备,只欠东风。“思想”和“血肉”已经具备了,还需要一个坚强有力的“骨骼”来支撑,这就是文章的框架结构。想清楚各部分之间的逻辑关系,明确先写什么后写什么,哪部分详写哪部分略写,用哪种结构排列方式。只要敢于尝试,终将收获惊喜和成功。
总之,写作最大的窍门就是多学习、多思考、多练笔、多创新,时间能够酝酿一切。这次大赛我获得了一等奖,但是成绩属于过去,未来任重道远。今后,我将围绕省委决策部署、围绕全局中心继续工作,加强学习、增强才干,立足岗位再建新功!
专家评委说——
◆谢安军(四川省自然资源厅机关党委书记,担任两届大赛领导讲话类阅卷评委)
博观而约取 厚积才能薄发
作为两届评委,我评阅过大量参赛文稿。我认为,文稿的比拼不仅是写作能力,而且是考验参赛者的思维思考、系统谋划、信息归纳掌握、综合表达能力等。在此,我为大家分享几点建议:
一是注重政策理论素养的历练提升。历届大赛主要围绕党和国家政治生活中的大事要事进行命题。比如,新思想是贯穿历届大赛的考点,党内教育、脱贫攻坚、生态文明、成渝地区双城经济圈建设等是近两年竞赛的热点与关键点。参赛者备赛时要紧盯考点,培养全局眼光,坚持系统思维,从国际、国内两个维度,系统梳理、追根溯源中央治国理政大政方针和省委省政府决策部署的缘起、现状、未来走向,以及落地落实的四川实践,吃透中央要求和上级精神,吃准本部门、本单位实情,真正做到“身在兵位,胸为帅谋”。
二是注重类型化文稿的积累沉淀。博观而约取,厚积而薄发。我向大家推荐一些好的学习渠道和平台,报刊类有《xxx》《求是》《红旗文稿》《秘书工作》《半月谈》等,微信公众号有“学习强国”“老笔头”“如椽巨笔”“办公室主任”“出卷人”等。要让学习成为常态,养成读书看报习惯,用好精读方法,细读标题、厘清结构、深扒金句、反复细刍、烂熟于心,广泛积累素材,扩充知识储备。
三是注重实践实战和熟练运用。在强化记忆、深化理解的基础上,做好消化、内化、转化,输出形成个人的思维导图和逻辑框架。注重掌握运用提炼主题和标题的方法技巧,力求准确、聚焦、鲜明、新颖、简洁。有些优秀文稿提炼的标题既有气势,又很工整,看起来赏心悦目,而且文稿的主题、体例和内容都很贴切,与部门职责特点又很贴近,这样的文稿很容易脱颖而出。扎实搞好基础工作,珍惜日常工作中每一次提笔实践、基层调研的机会,在每一次认真细致谋篇构思、精益求精反复修改中,不断锤炼脑力、笔力、眼力。

外研社写作比赛样题范文 第五篇
Read the following paragraphs which present contradictory views. Write a passage about the issue, clearly stating your opinion and explaining your reasons. You should write about 800 words.
A poll conducted this year by , a job-hunting service, reports that of 2015 college graduates hope to start their own companies. This has almost doubled the figure for last year. Driven by this trend as well as encouraged by the Chinese government’s preferential policies for startups (创业公司), many college seniors are facing the dilemma as to whether to try to establish a business or to look for a job upon graduation.
Some people, mostly entrepreneurs-to-be, claim that with their passion, openness and creativity, as well as their knowledge, graduates can bring their potential into full play when building a startup. Others argue that new graduates, who have long been in the ivory tower of education, will find launching a business too difficult. Apart from finding the initial investment, operating a startup also requires the managerial experience and social connections which can only be gained through years of work in a mature enterprise.

I don't think so. printed books won't be abandoned in such a short time. i admit that new technology is developing fast.
Many advanced electronic products are gradually take the place of traditional tools. just like in university, teachers like to use multimedia in class for it is quite convenient and efficient. however, for our student, it is not realistic to study completely by electronic products.
There are many things need to recorded on books. books are something meaningful and practical. i should say, in our country, printed books wouldn't be abandoned within 20 years at least for two reasons.
Firstly, books are classical container of knowledge. they accompany human to advance. a student without books could be someway ridiculous.
Secondly, our country haven't developed so strong to make every student study by computer or other forms of electronic tools. and even after 20 years, the possibility is also very small.
I also think it is unnecessary because books are cheap but useful and still meaningful.

啦啦操大赛终于成功落下帷幕了,从总体上来说这次活动是比较成功的,基本上达到了预期目的。场上参赛队员卖力比赛,场下观众激情加油,甚者备有打鼓,虽有扰大赛秩序,但从中能看见他们的热情。
啦啦操比赛是我参与组织的第一个活动,虽然状况多多,但我还是从中体会出了几点道理。
首先,我对啦啦操有了一定认识。啦啦操是一项新兴的体育运动项目,对于高校学生具有广泛的价值,在丰富校园体育文化内涵的同时对促进整个校园体育文化的建设发挥着重要的作用;啦啦操也是一项集健身、娱乐、艺术、表演于一体的体现青春活力、健康向上、团结合作的团队精神的新兴运动项目。对全面提高学生素质,促进全民健身和体育的发展等都起到良好的促进作用。其次,我认识到了学生会是一个整体,有的时候部门工作并没有明确的界限。宣传不再只是宣传部的事,各部都有人帮忙帮展板,布置会场等;体育部的人不再是“体力”部,出谋划策时总有他们身影。就好像布置整个活动区的时候,大家都是哪里有活干就往哪里跑。布置的时候大家都很抓紧时间,整个学生会便如拧成了一天绳子,互帮互助,齐心协力在短短时间内布置好活动场地。但也发现少许问题…在前期工作分配上没有很好落实,导致工作范围不明确,造成了一些失误,如小板凳的准备,茶水的准备等。
再者,我意识到临场应变的重要。我主要负责啦啦操彩排和正式比赛的伴奏音乐播放工作,总体还算可以,没有太大失误。在播放音乐工作上,在主任及学长学姐们的教授下,弥补了我的经验不足,使大赛的音乐播放任务顺利完成~但从中发现自身缺乏临场应变,不能及时做出正确判断,造成一些不必要的失误。还有当桌布没有在校会那借到时,也不能及时去弥补,虽然最好有惊无险找到桌布,但我从中发现自己还需要好好的锻炼。最后,我从我的工作中也认识到了细心的重要。象在各系传送音乐时,只要将其音乐名稍稍改下,就不仅能省播放时的功夫,还能减少失误。
通过这次活动,我从中获取很多工作经验。这次我在组织活动中贡献了一份小小的力,在活动过程中我还是有点手忙脚乱。但我会不断提升自己的能力,不断进步到新的台阶。

才艺大赛的前几天,小动物在努力地练习着。小猴想:练什么才好呢?
这天,小猴在外面玩,看见了小兔在写作文。他走过去,拍拍小兔的肩膀说:“小兔,我们一起写作文吧!”小兔子说:“好啊,我们先从句子开始写吧。”没写几句,小猴的注意力就不集中了。
小猴往窗外一看,发现小熊在吹喇叭,动听的音乐声,引来了小鸟的围观。于是小猴就跑过去说:“小熊,我们一起吹喇叭吧!”小熊说:“好啊。”小猴刚吹了两首,就说:“我不吹了,我腮帮子都痛了。”小熊说:“小猴,还有好多首呢!”小猴头也不回地走了。
回家的路上,小猴看见了小鹿在跑步,就走过去说:“小鹿,我们一起跑步吧!”小鹿说:“好啊!”可是才跑了几十米,小猴说:“我不适合练习跑步,实在太累人了。”
才艺大赛那天,小兔、小熊和小鹿得了第一名,他们得意地把奖牌挂在胸前。只有小猴两手空空,他只好垂头丧气地回家了。

Questions 15-17 (Suggested completion time: 6 minutes)
Directions: Read the text about a science discovery. Answer the questions according to the text.
Manipulating Memory
Memory is notoriously malleable. Our recollections fade and take on new meanings; sometimes we remember things that never even happened. But 15 .
Recently, however, scientists have started to grasp and tinker with memory's physical basis. Last year, in work evocative of films such as Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Inception, researchers discovered ways to manipulate specific memories in mice using optogenetics, a powerful technique that can trigger nerve cells in animals' brains by zapping them with beams of laser light. In a series of experiments, they showed that they could delete existing memories and xxxinceptxxx false ones.
This year, researchers went even further: switching the emotional content of a memory in mice from bad to good and vice versa. Under the laser, for example, male mice that had once associated a certain room with being shocked were tricked into acting as though they had once met friendly female mice there instead.
Whether the mice in these experiments actually experienced vivid false memories or just a fuzzy sense of pleasure or fear is unclear. Nor is it clear whether the findings apply to the tricks of memory so familiar to people. Long-sought therapeutic advances, such as treatments for post-traumatic stress disorder, could remain far off. One thing is certain, however: Once considered beyond scientific dissection, memory is finally starting to yield its secrets.
15. Which of the following best fits the numbered space in the text?
A. what is really happening in our brain as memories are remodeled remains mysteriousB. scientists are curious about why people are oblivious to what have happened to themC. advanced technology has helped scientists discover the workings of our brainD. some scientists argue that what we observe about human memory is not what it really is
16. The word xxxinceptxxx is closest in meaning to ________.
A. operateB. startC. detectD. occupy
17. Which of the following can be inferred from the text?
A. People's false memories result from the impact of different emotion provoked by later experience on the same . The success in research indicates that it won't be long that a therapy is worked out for people disturbed by painful . By zapping the brain cells of mice with light, researchers are able to create, erase, or alter their memories, good or . Many fancy ideas in science fictions or movies that are based on them actually draw greatly upon scientific achievement.
Questions 18-19 (Suggested completion time: 4 minutes)
Directions: Read the text about cholera. Decide whether the statements are True or False according to the text.
A child receives the oral cholera vaccine Shanchol
Cholera is caused by a bacterial infection of the intestine. Approximately one in 20 people infected with cholera has a serious case, with symptoms including severe diarrhea, vomiting, and leg cramps. These symptoms quickly cause dehydration and shock, and can result in death within hours if the infected person doesn't receive treatment. Cholera is typically transmitted by contaminated food or water. In areas with poor treatment of sewage and drinking water, the feces of people with cholera can enter the water supply and spread quickly, resulting in an epidemic. The cholera bacterium may also live in the environment in some coastal waters, so shellfish eaten raw can be a source of cholera in affected areas.
18. Cholera is known to be a life-threatening disease which easily causes death of most of the ( ) False ( )
19. Cholera typically occurs in areas near the sea or the river where contaminated food is a major source of the ( ) False ( )
Questions 20-21 (Suggested completion time: 5 minutes)
Directions: Read the abstract of a research paper from the DeepMind website. Decide whether the statements are True or False according to the abstract.
Teaching Machines to Read and Comprehend
Authors: K. M. Hermann, T. Kočiský, E. Grefenstette, L. Espeholt, W. Kay, M. Suleyman, P. Blunsom
Published: NIPS 2015
Abstract: Teaching machines to read natural language documents remains an elusive challenge. Machine reading systems can be tested on their ability to answer questions posed on the contents of documents that they have seen, but until now large scale training and test datasets have been missing for this type of evaluation. In this work we define a new methodology that resolves this bottleneck and provides large scale supervised reading comprehension data. This allows us to develop a class of attention based deep neural networks that learn to read real documents and answer complex questions with minimal prior knowledge of language structure.
20. Previous studies didn't take constant effort to evaluate the reading ability of artificial intelligence machines, which was why the present research was ( ) False ( )21. One implication of the research is that a methodology that helps gather and handle big data is indispensable to artificial intelligence related ( ) False ( )
Questions 22-23 (Suggested completion time: 6 minutes)
Directions: Read the text about the xxxThink smallxxx advertising campaign. Answer the questions according to the text.
Think Small
If you're interested in marketing and advertising, Volkswagen's xxxThink smallxxx campaign for the Beetle when it was first introduced to North America in 1959 looms large as one of the greatest advertising campaigns of all time. It wasn't just a revolution in automotive advertising; it changed the entire industry.
Until the Beetle hit the market, automotive marketing copy was full of bluster, and the images were flights of fancy, emphasizing low, long lines and a fantasy lifestyle.
The clean, simple photography on a white background that emphasized the Beetle's compact, practical form may seem commonplace these days, but it was a revolution in a world where Americans grew up obsessed with muscle cars, horsepower, and tire smoke. Making the car small, when the convention was to make it fill the page, was also novel. The simplistic approach to design and layout was totally contrary to the advertising conventions of the time.
__ __22_____ The text was minimalist in both look and content, presenting the facts simply instead of trying to weave tall tales and fantasies; and instead of bluster, it ushered in an intelligent sense of humor that made readers feel like they were in on the joke. The message was one of smart anti-luxury, and took gentle aim at an industry obsessed with superficiality and styling, rather than the substance underneath the car bodies.
Not only does xxxThink smallxxx continue to inspire Volkswagen advertising to this day, it ushered in a creative revolution in the advertising business and changed the world of marketing forever. xxxThink smallxxx showed the power of humor and honesty, and its photographic and design principles brought about a major shift in the look and feel of marketing around the world.
22. Which of the sentences below best fits the numbered space in the text?
A. What defined the ad even more than its visual style was the tone of its . This ad starts off doing the exact opposite of what you would expect in a car . This was an exercise in minimalism and a very accurate reflection on the product . The car wasn't depicted as an integral piece of the daily lives of a middle class family.
23. It can be inferred that the advertising conventions of the 1950s were reflected in the following except that ___________.
A. The ads in the 1950s typically showed proud owners and passengers evoking great joy about new shiny big . The marketing concept then focused on providing as much information as possible to the reader such as the way it's . The marketing schemes associated the advertised product with an idea or a way of living from average consumers' . The marketing practice may attach importance to a sense of humor brought by the use of exaggerated language.
Questions 24-25 (Suggested completion time: 4 minutes)
Directions: Read the following six remarks concerning the crowd. Four of them are taken from Gustave Le Bon's book, The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind. Choose the two remarks that may NOT be taken from the book.
24-25. _______
The Crowd
A. In crowds it is stupidity and not mother wit that is . Crowds most envy the lonely man who walks confidently as if he is walking with the great crowds!C. A crowd is not merely impulsive and mobile. Like a savage, it is not prepared to admit that anything can come between its desire and the realization of its . I walked with them, as crowds have that effect on me, I want to do what they do, to journey towards some point of revelation, which of course never . Crowds, being incapable both of reflection and of reasoning, are devoid of the notion of improbability; and it is to be noted that in a general way it is the most improbable things that are the most . …the inpidual forming part of a crowd acquires, solely from numerical considerations, a sentiment of invincible power which allows him to yield to instincts which, had he been alone, he would perforce have kept under restraint.
Questions 26-28 (Suggested completion time: 5 minutes)
Directions: Read the text about a fly. Answer the questions according to the text.
The Fly
At that moment the boss noticed that a fly had fallen into his broad inkpot, and was trying feebly but desperately to clamber out again. xxxHelp! Help!xxx said those struggling legs. But the sides of the inkpot were wet and slippery; it fell back again and began to swim. The boss took up a pen, picked the fly out of the ink, and shook it on to a piece of blotting-paper. For a fraction of a second it lay still on the dark patch that oozed round it. Then the front legs waved, took hold, and, pulling its small, sodden body up, it began the immense task of cleaning the ink from its wings. Over and under, over and under, went a leg along a wing, as the stone goes over and under the scythe. Then there was a pause, while the fly, seeming to stand on the tips of its toes, tried to expand first one wing and then the other. It succeeded at last, and, sitting down, it began, like a minute cat, to clean its face. Now one could imagine that the little front legs rubbed against each other lightly, joyfully. 27 .

28. The tone of the text can be described as a complex mixture of anything but _______.
A. sympatheticB. humorousC. cheerfulD. depressing
Questions 29-30 (Suggested completion time: 7 minutes)
Directions: Read the text about Chaco Culture. Answer the questions according to the text.
The xxxChaco Culturexxx, as modern-day archaeologists call it, flourished between roughly the 9th and 13th centuries . and was centered at Chaco Canyon in what is now New Mexico.
The people of the Chaco Culture built immense structures that at times encompassed more than 500 rooms. They also participated in long-distance trade that brought cacao, macaws (a type of parrot), turquoise and copper to Chaco Canyon.
29_______, researchers have to rely on the artifacts and structures they left behind, as well as oral accounts that have been passed on through generations, to reconstruct what their lives were like.
Archaeologists generally agree that Chaco Canyon was the center of Chaco Culture. Today the canyon is a national park and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The National Park Service estimates that there are about 4,000 archaeological sites in the park, including more than a dozen immense structures that archaeologists sometimes call xxxGreat Housesxxx. Archaeological research has revealed many discoveries, including a system of roads that connected many Chaco Culture sites, and evidence of astronomical alignments that indicate that some Chaco Culture structures were oriented toward the solstice sun and lunar standstills.
“There has been more archaeological research conducted in Chaco and on the subject of Chaco than on any other prehistoric district in North America,” says a National Park Service statement posted on Chaco Culture National Historical Park's website.
xxxToday, twenty Puebloan groups in New Mexico, as well as the Hopi in Arizona, claim Chaco as their ancestral homeland and are tied to this place through oral traditions and clan lineages. A number of Navajo clans are also affiliated with Chacoan sites through their traditional stories,xxx the National Park Service statement says.
Despite the fact that there has been an immense amount of archaeological research carried out at Chaco Canyon, and at other Chaco Culture sites in the American Southwest, modern-day archaeologists disagree over what the people of the Chaco Culture were like.
Some archaeologists think that the people of the Chaco Culture were not politically united, while some think they controlled an empire centered on Chaco Canyon. xxxWhat was Chaco? Opinions vary widely, perhaps wildly. Interpretations range from a valley of peaceful farming villages to the monumental capital of an empire,xxx wrote Stephen Lekson, a professor at the University of Colorado Boulder, in an article published in the book The Architecture of Chaco Canyon, New Mexico (University of Utah Press, 2007).
Lekson noted that there are different interpretations among archaeologists as to what the Great Houses were. Some archaeologists believe that they were villages inhabited by thousands of people, while others think that they were elite residences that housed a small number of residents.
29. Which of the following best fits in the numbered space in the text?
A. The people of the Chaco Culture did not use a writing system and as suchB. While archaeologists are not certain what caused this dramatic population bumpC. When thinking about archaeological sites, we tend to think of them as dead silentD. Since Chaco's national monument status may not protect it from development pressures
30. Which of the following statements can we know from the text?
A. The people of the Chaco culture were good at foreign . xxxGreat Housesxxx were built from approximately the 9th to 13thcentury . Most descendants of ancient Chaco people live in New Mexico . Archaeologists hold different ideas about how the people of the Chaco Culture lived.
Part III Read and Question
In Part III, you will read passages on the same subject. You will be required to identify the writer's position and evaluate the effectiveness of the writer's arguments. (Time allowed: 35 minutes)
Questions 31-40 (Suggested completion time: 35 minutes)
Directions: Read three passages about fashion. Answer the questions according to the passages.
Passage A
It's not that easy to answer the question, xxxwhat is fashion?xxx because it means different things to different people. Fashion is an art. It's a religion. It's a job. It's a peek into a personality. It's playfulness. It's an escape or a disguise. It is a feast for the eyes. But ultimately, 32 . French fashion designer Coco Chanel once said, xxxFashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening.xxx
It's true. Fashion isn't defined solely by our clothing choices, but is also conveyed through the way we carry ourselves, our personalities and our views of the world. At its most fundamental, fashion is simply the prevailing style or custom, as in dress or behavior.
So, who exactly answers the question xxxwhat is fashionxxx? Who decides what's fashionable and what isn't? What's in or what's out?
Fashion Designers. The iconic fashion houses—Prada, Gucci, Chanel—are referred to as haute couture, French for xxxhigh sewingxxx. These designers lead the way in creating trend-setting fashion. While some of their designs are outrageous and completely unrealistic when it comes to everyday wear, generally the theme is adapted into versions suitable for wearing.
Media. Fashion trends are often sparked by characters on popular television shows and movies as well as adopted from magazine pages. xxxSex and the Cityxxx, xxxThe Devil Wears Pradaxxx, these shows introduced us to new, cutting-edge designs. While you might not be caught dead wearing a Carrie Bradshaw original, you might take ideas inspired from her look and piece together your own creation.
Celebrities. A prime example of a celebrity-driven fashion trend? UGGs. Until Kate Hudson and Jessica Simpson were spotted wearing them around . several years ago, no one had given any thought to UGG boots. Now they are everywhere.
Musicians. Musicians have always been very influential when it comes to dictating fashion. Rock 'n' roll is fashion. Elvis is an iconic example. In the 1950s, everyone wanted to dress like Elvis. What about the heavy metal hair bands so popular in the 1980s? Axl Rose reinvented the head bandana while Poison, Motley Crue and Bon Jovi set the pace for big, rocker hair.
Just because you don't know if a Prada bag is fall 2007 or spring 2008 doesn't matter. All that matters is that you like it and it's an expression of you. That is fashion.
Passage B
[A]Fashion is more prevalent in modern society than in primitive tribes or peasant communities. The modern society is an open society where class distinctions are not so rigid as in primitive society. Its urban and mobile class structure enables people to cultivate inpidual taste and adopt new course. [B]Our standards of judgment have also changed. Today the inpidual is rated more by observable externalities than by his ancestry, his character or his genuine accomplishments. The clothes a man wears, the language he speaks, the manners he shows have more weight in ascribing a status than his simplicity, patriotism and integrity.
If he can keep himself up to date in the matters of his dress, speech and manners, he will assure himself a high social esteem. [C]Not only the mobile and urban character of modern society but its affluence also speaks for greater prevalence of fashion in it. Men today are richer than their ancestors and have more leisure. They have the necessary means and time to play with luxuries and to think of fashion. Maclver writes: We do not think of fashion in overalls; there is more of fashion in the body of an automobile than in its chassis. There is no fashion in steam shovels. [D]Consequently the higher the standard of living the more material there is for fashion to operate upon.
Passage C
As summer has officially faded into the colder weather of autumn, I assumed the days of Nike shorts, comically large T-shirts and polos would be only a memory of yesterday. This has not been the case.
Fashion, in and of itself, is already a type of conformism. In order to be considered fashion, a look, a garment or a stylistic choice must be deemed fashionable.
Who gets to decide this—what is fashionable? While certain fashion heavyweights play a role in this decision, the ultimate decision is left to the public.
As I was surfing the Web recently for inspiration for this column, I came across the Prada website. What I discovered literally caused me to gasp. Of course, everyone knows Prada is an expensive brand—a luxury—but what I discovered shocked me: a keychain priced at $180. No, this keychain was not solid gold or encased in diamonds. It was simply a keychain: a skull with the word xxxPradaxxx on a small charm.
How can a company charge $180 for a keychain? The answer: people are willing to pay for it. People know the brand and conform to the idea of owning a piece of such an Italian xxxluxuryxxx.
This is nonsensical. Why do we choose to wear miniscule shorts in frigid weather or spend nearly $200 on a charm? Such decisions are influenced by peers, the media and the personal resolution to not make rational, inpidualistic choices. We cling to the idea of acceptance.
In short, we often choose to abide by the pressures of social conventionality, and this leads us to make ridiculous selections—pairing Ugg boots with shorts or wearing neon with camouflage—which we would otherwise not make.
I am certainly shamefaced in my occasional conformity to these ludicrous fashion folkways. I am guilty of donning Crocs in public. Yikes!
Transient, often preposterous trends referred to as fads inspire some rather strange ideas. Who can recall the pet rocks of the '70s or Popples of the '80s? Such pop trends are not confined to behavior; they bleed into the fashion world, evidenced in overly distressed jeans, the most painful of neon shades, shoes that resemble Swiss cheese and a host of other fads I do not have the space to mention.
I refuse to give up hope for societal common sense.
One day we will comprehend that shorts are for the summer and ridiculously expensive keychains are for “never.” Do not allow others to dictate for you. Be bold. Be an inpidual. Do not buy the keychain.
31. The phrase xxxmight not be caught deadxxx in Passage A most probably means ______.
A. would rather not die anywayB. might not be caught red handedC. would refuse completely to do somethingD. might be uneasy though doing something
32. Which of the following best fits the numbered space in Passage A?
A. fashion is an inpidual statement of expression for each of usB. fashion facilitates social change by providing a transitional stageC. fashion is not an inpidual choice but a group choiceD. fashion determines our speech, opinion, dress, music, art, etc.
33. It can be inferred from Passage A that fashion designers, media, celebrities and musicians share the following views except ______.
A. that fashion is anything but separated from the daily life of ordinary peopleB. that nothing completely absurd and unrealistic can finally become fashionC. that fashion is what society accepts and has an element of social sanction behind itD. that if a particular choice remains confined to an inpidual it can't be called fashion
34. The word xxxaffluencexxx in Passage B is closest in meaning to ______.
A. versatilityB. wealthinessC. peculiarityD. charisma
35. According to Passage B, which of the following attributes may probably be more important than others for an inpidual to be favorably received now?
A. A wide range of . Loyalty to his or her . A passion for popular . Good virtues such as honesty.
36. Look at the four blanks with letters (A, B, C, and D) in Passage B and decide where the following sentence could be added.
The modern society is more tolerant of differences and therefore places few shackles on the cycle of fashion.
Where would the sentence best fit?
A. Option AB. Option BC. Option CD. Option D
37. Which of the following is NOT true about the author's attitude towards fashion according to Passage C?
A. The author thinks it a waste of time mentioning a list of examples of irrational . People are mad about fashion and therefore lose their own good . The author never allows himself to be carried away by the fashion . Behind the behavior of keeping up with fashion is a need to stay in the crowd.
38. What does the author mean by xxxI refuse to give up hope for societal common sensexxx in Passage C?
A. To criticize the social obsession with . To provide an example of how ridiculous some fashion trends . To prove that the pursuit of fashion is beyond people's common . To predict a possible impact of today's fashion on people's social behaviors.
39-40. Decide whether the statements are True or False according to the three passages.
39. All the three passages agree that fashion plays a role in the interplay of class relations that it satisfies the contrary desires for novelty and for ( ) False ( )40. None of the three passages are denying conventional social values in people's judgment, for example, what's considered good about things or ( ) False ( )
Part IV Read and Create
In Part IV, you will read a passage and then write a short essay according to it. You should write with clarity and logic. (Time allowed: 40 minutes)
Question 41 (Suggested completion time: 40 minutes)
Directions: Read an excerpt from Discourse on the Method of Rightly Conducting the Reason and Seeking the Truth in the Sciences. Write a short essay according to the excerpt.
… And as a multitude of laws often only hampers justice, so that a state is best governed when, with few laws, these are rigidly administered; in like manner, instead of the great number of precepts of which logic is composed, I believed that the four following would prove perfectly sufficient for me, provided I took the firm and unwavering resolution never in a single instance to fail in observing them.
The first was never to accept anything for true which I did not clearly know to be such; that is to say, carefully to avoid precipitancy and prejudice, and to comprise nothing more in my judgment than what was presented to my mind so clearly and distinctly as to exclude all ground of doubt.
The second, to pide each of the difficulties under examination into as many parts as possible, and as might be necessary for its adequate solution.
The third, to conduct my thoughts in such order that, by commencing with objects the simplest and easiest to know, I might ascend by little and little, and, as it were, step by step, to the knowledge of the more complex; assigning in thought a certain order even to those objects which in their own nature do not stand in a relation of antecedence and sequence.
And the last, in every case to make enumerations so complete, and reviews so general, that I might be assured that nothing was omitted.
The long chains of simple and easy reasonings by means of which geometers are accustomed to reach the conclusions of their most difficult demonstrations, had led me to imagine that all things, to the knowledge of which man is competent, are mutually connected in the same way, and that there is nothing so far removed from us as to be beyond our reach, or so hidden that we cannot discover it, provided only we abstain from accepting the false for the true, and always preserve in our thoughts the order necessary for the deduction of one truth from another. And I had little difficulty in determining the objects with which it was necessary to commence, for I was already persuaded that it must be with the simplest and easiest to know, and, considering that of all those who have hitherto sought truth in the sciences, the mathematicians alone have been able to find any demonstrations, that is, any certain and evident reasons, I did not doubt but that such must have been the rule of their investigations.
41. Write a short essay of about 300 words based on your understanding of the excerpt. Remember to write in your OWN words. Your essay should respond to the following questions:
1) What is the main issue that Descartes explores in this excerpt, and what is his method?2) What is your OWN understanding of the methods proposed by Descartes?

森林王国要举办才艺大赛,小动物们纷纷认真准备起来。
一天,小猴偷偷地在小兔的窗户边看小兔在学写作。他想:我也学。小猴回到家,拿起作文本写了起来。刚写两句话,就觉得没话可说了,小猴说:“写作文怎么这么难,不学了!”
突然小猴听到喇叭声,真好听。小猴自言自语地说:“我还是学吹喇叭吧。”小猴给自己买了一个喇叭,吹了起来。刚吹两天,小猴觉得腮帮子疼了,说:“这个也太难,不学了。”喇叭被扔在角落里再也没动过。
又一天,小猴在外散步,看见小鹿跑得真快。小猴心动了,说:“我也学跑步。”小猴撒腿就跑,跑了一两圈就累得气喘吁吁。小猴又不学了。
才艺大赛那天,小兔、小熊、还有小鹿他们都得到了金灿灿的奖牌,而小猴却两手空空,他后悔极了。
