13. Brain Drain

Brain drain is a delicate problem with which this country is confronted. In the last ten years

or so, a lot of scientists and technicians have swarmed into developed countries for further studies or research work, let alone numerous promising students. And there are no indications that they will be back home before long. This country has paid the expenses of training them but lost them. How did that come about?

It seems that it isn't impossible to solve the problem. The scientists and the like can be

attracted back home so long as great importance is attached to the intellectual's deserving treatment and effective measures are taken to provide them with excellent pay and agreeable conditions.

注：so long as 只要； great importance is attached to... 重视

effective measures 有效措施

14. Treasure Water

The availability of water has been an important factor in China's growth. China is blessed

with large supplies of fresh water. Such mighty rivers as the Yellow, the Yangtse and the Songhua irrigate the farming land of thousands of miles along them. In addition, the development of industry and the water supply of big cities are made possible largely by vast resources.

注：Treasure v 珍惜.

15. How to Solve Energy Crisis

Man is faced with a big problem—the energy crisis, which is becoming more and more

serious. First, with the increase in the world's population, the demand for fuels is growing steadily. Second, the rapid development of industry and agriculture calls for an increasing amount of coal, oil and natural gas.

注：energy 能源；crisis 危机

1、面临

2、解决

Confronted with the energy crisis, we should take a series of effective measures to save

energy. For one thing, it is high time that people all over the world realized the severe fact that our natural resources have been fixed since the earth was created. For another, the governments of all countries are supposed to lay down the rules and regulations to restrict the amount of gas used by cars. Finally, scientific researches should be encouraged to work out efficient methods of saving fuels and to seek new sources of energy.

Personally, I believe that solar energy is a possible source of clean, inexpensive and abundant

energy. It does not pollute the environment and costs only as much as the installation of solar panels to absorb the sun's rays. Consequently. I'm confident that a bright future is awaiting us because solar energy will be able to help us to solve the energy crisis.

注：personally 就我个人而言；solar 太阳能

17. Physical Exercise

More and more people today are realizing the importance of regular physical exercise. In the

past, most people were involved in manual labour out in the fresh air of the fields. Nowadays a lot of people work in offices, spending most of their time indoors. In the evenings they usually sit watching TV or reading newspapers. Their daily lives don't provide them with the exercise needed to keep them healthy. Therefore, they must devote part of their time to doing regular physical exercise.

注：两点提纲：

1、重要

2、方法

18. Information in the Modern Society

n the modern society, it is important to be well-informed. Success in many fields depends on

getting the latest information. At the same time, failure in policy-making often results from the lack of necessary information. That is why we call the current age“the Information Age”.

There are many means of acquiring information which enable us to keep up with the step of social development. First, we read various books, newspapers ...

注：surf 冲浪

16. Fire Accidents in Big Cities

In recent years there has been a marked growth of fire accidents in big cities of our country.

Almost every day we see fire engines rushing through streets. Fires have not only resulted in heavy economic losses but also injured and killed many people.

What are the causes of fire accidents? Most of the fires are brought about by carelessness and violation of fire safety regulations. Others are due to the poor quality of home electrical appliances. ...

In my opinion, in order to prevent fires we should first of all foster people's sense of fire

prevention. The second thing we have to do is to increase the number of professional fire fighters, to whom regular training courses should be offered. Finally, we are to improve the existing fire engines and add more fire facilities to high-rise buildings. In this way, a reliable fire prevention system will be formed.

注：foster 培养；enhance 提高

How I Finance My College Education

After I came into the college, there is a question how I finance my college education.

There are many way to solve the tuition and fees of college education. The most usual way is use the family's money. Most of the students get money from their parents. If someone's family situation is not well he can apply for loan to bank.

How I Finance My College Education

Nowadays, tuition and fees for college are much higher than ever before. How to finance

your college education has become a matter of concern for many. You can deal with in many ways. You can get all of the money from your parents. You can apply for a loan especially set up for college students. You can also acquire the money completely by yourself, doing a full-time job in summer or winter holiday. In addition, you can ask your parents for most of it and earn the rest in your spare time in college, by doing a part time job.

注：get all of 得到；alpply for 申请；loan 贷款；acquire 得到

Part-time Jobs for College Students

There are some controversies on part-time jobs for college students. People who are against it

hold that the sole purpose of higher education is for the students to acquire knowledge. If they are engaged in part-time job they will be invariably distracted from their studies and as a result they can not fulfil the requirements mapped out by the State Education Commission. The writer, however, thinks that there are several advantages for college students involved in part-time jobs.

Firstly, part-time jobs provide opportunities for students to contact society so as to know the

situation of the talent market. For instance, if a student works as a part-time governess, he or she will know what kind of professionals are urgently needed by the market and this will help him to choose a future job. Secondly, there are some financial gains from part-time jobs. Since the reform was carried out, institutions of higher education have started to collect tuition fees from students. Needless to say this means another financial burden on parents. And part-time jobs can serve as a partial solution to this problem. Last but not least, part-time jobs can cultivate students' sense of independence.

Should Firecrackers Be Banned?

1. 有人认为放鞭炮是好事，为什么？

2. 有人认为放鞭炮是坏事，为什么？

3. 我的看法

2. 造成：cause、lead to、result in sth.、bring about、be

responsible for

First,setting off firecrackers leads to fires.Secondly it result in injuress to people.Finally it also brings about noise.

On the other hand, there are many people who say that firecrackers should be banned.

They point out that firecrackers are responsible for fires which destroy property, and for injuries suffered both by the people who set them off and by innocent bystanders. They also say that firecrackers are a waste of money and resources.

注：point out 指出；be responsible for 造成

On the other hand,there are many people who say that pets should be banned.They point

out that pets are responsible for nioses which disturb people's rest,and for injuries suffered both by the people who keep them by innocent neighbors.

My own point of view is that we should preserve the old custom of letting off

firecrackers, while at the same time making them harmless. We can do this by banning firecrackers from public places. In addition, we should restrict the setting off of firecrackers to festival days.

注：My own point of view is that we should be allowed to keep pets, while at the same time making them harmless.

For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write a composition on the topic Do “Lucky Numbers” Really Bring Good Luck? You should write at least 120 words and you should base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese) below:

Do “Lucky Numbers” Really Bring Good Luck?

1.有些人认为某些数字会带来好运。

2.我认为数字和运气无关……

注：Some people believe that some number can bring them good luck.

For example in China the number eight is believed to be a number that can bring people good luck.Another example is the number six.

There are people who believe that some numbers bring good luck, while others bring bad

luck. For instance, in China the number eight is thought to be lucky. Turning our attention to the West, we find that the number seven is considered lucky, but the number 13 is avoided like the plague.

注：认为：is thought、is considered

In spite of all these claims, most people would agree that there is little evidence that numbers

have any influence on our lives. In fact, they say, the reverse seems to be the case. ……In fact, they say, the reverse seems to be the case. For one thing, we might expect calculators to break down every time they note the number 13, and for another, although every week has seven days we know that not every week is lucky for us.

Weighing the pros and cons of these arguments, I am inclined to agree with the latter point of

view. It is obvious that there is no scientific basis for the belief that there is a connection between luck and numbers. All in all, it seems to me to be superstition.

注：latter -> former；superstition 迷信；All in all, it seems to me to be a waste of time.

第三节

As a general rule, people like to help others, but there are occasions when you should say no

to requests for favors. For instance, it is better to refuse when a child pesters you for sweet food and drinks or for too many toys. Another example is when a relative asks you to use your influence to get him or her a bank loan or a work promotion.

注：pesters sb. for 缠着某人要……

However, we cannot ignore the fact that many people are reluctant to say no. They feel that if

they turn down a request from a relative or friend, they will cause ill-feeling within the family or become unpopular with their acquaintances. A notable case in point is when the boss asks them to do something which they feel is unreasonable.

注：2004年1月 “Reduce waste on campus”

we cannot ignore the fact that many students are wasting food.

……Not throw them away, they revised the perservation date, and saled them again after several

days. Another case in the point, a pair of shoes was made from goat. However, in order to sale at a

high price, the salers would say they were made from cow which has good quality.

注：把问题说清楚分成三步：

1、提出问题 2、分析问题 3、解决问题

Like most people, I welcomed the advent of the market economy. Nevertheless, it must be

admitted that, along with the benefits of the market economy, have come problems. In my opinion, the biggest problem is the large number of fake and shoddy goods, which are found all over the country and do great harm to society

It must be admitted that, along with the benefits of the internet, have come problems.

Fake and shoddy goods are harmful on two levels. Some people think that the quickest

way to make profits is by selling poor-quality commodities, and this undermines the nation's economy; at the same time, some fake and shoddy goods are bad for people's health. This makes consumers distrust the sellers, and the free market in general.

注：Fake commodities do harm to consumers' health.

I drank a bottle of water so I had a bad stomachache, so I went to see the doctor.

level：层面 (on)；aspects：方面（in）

In view of the seriousness of this problem, it is essential that laws and regulations be

worked out to ban the manufacture and circulation of fake and shoddy goods. At the same time, consumers should be educated to identify sub-standard commodities. With proper laws and an alert public, it will only be a matter of time before fake and shoddy goods become things of the past.

Yet 的用法

一、副词 yet 作“还”，“仍然”讲

1. Much yet remains to be done.

    尚有许多事情待做。

5. Man has not yet learned to store the sun's heat.
