7、ages and Disadvantages of Living in the CityLike many other city dwellers, I often complain about having to cope with the problems related with city life. I sometimes fancy getting closer to nature and appreciating its beauty fully in the country. Once a friend asked me, “Do you really hate life in

8、the city that much? If you had a choice, would you move away to the country?“ I compelled myself to think about city life more seriously. Now I have to do justice to it. Admittedly, the attractions of city life still appeal to me strongly despite its drawbacks. In general, city life is relatively co

9、nvenient and comfortable. The supply of water and electricity is continuous. Whenever one wants, all he has to do is just turning on a faucet or pressing a button. There is also a variety of vehicles for transportation, from buses and cars to trains and planes, that help people move about efficientl

10、y. Shopping centers are seen here and there in cities. Thanks to the amazing diversity of commodities, going shopping is often interesting and enjoyable for city dwellers. Besides the fun of making purchases, there are also countless theaters, cinemas, art galleries and restaurants providing residen

11、ts with various kinds of fascinating entertainment. _ _ _ _ To some extent, city life is truly divorced from nature. It is sometimes very exhausting because of its fast moving tempo. But on the other hand, nothing in the world is perfect; neither is city life. Viewed positively, the drawbacks should

12、 still be outweighed by its attractions. In fact, the drawbacks can be regarded as challenges to make life in the city more interesting, more exciting and more meaningful. To me, moving away from the city would mean the loss of excitement and the dynamic nature of modern life. Therefore, I would cho

13、ose to continue to live in the city. （分数：15.00）_5.Read the following passage carefully and compose a “topic outline“ for it. APerhaps you are an average student with average intelligence. You do well enough in school, but you probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily th

14、e case, however. You can receive better grades if you want to. Yes, even students of average intelligence can be top students without additional work. Here“s how. 1. Plan your time carefully. Make a list of your weekly tasks. Then make a schedule or chart of your time. Fill in committed time such as

15、 eating, sleeping, meetings, classes, etc. Then decide on good, regular times for studying. Be sure to set aside enough time to complete your normal reading and work assignment as well. This weekly schedule may not solve all of your problems, but it will make you more aware of how you spend your tim

16、e. Furthermore, it will enable you to plan your activities so that you have adequate time for both work and play. 2. Find a good place to study. Choose one place for your study area. It may be a desk or a chair at home or in the school library, but it should be comfortable, and it should not have di

17、stractions. When you begin to work, you should be able to put your heart into it. 3. Skim before you read. This means looking over a passage quickly before you begin to read it more carefully. As you preview the material, you get some idea of the content and how it is organized. Later when you begin

18、 to read you will recognize less important material and you may skip some of these parts. Skimming helps double your reading speed and improves your comprehension as well. 4. Make good use of your time in class. Listening to what the teacher says in class means less work later. Sit where you can see

19、 and hear well. Take notes to help you remember what the teacher says. 5. Study regularly. Go over your notes as soon as you can after class. Review important points in class as well as you remain confused about. Read about these points in your textbook. If you know what the teacher will discuss the

20、 next day, skim and read that material too. This will help you understand the next class. If you review your notes and textbook regularly, the material will become more meaningful and you will remember it longer. Regular review leads to improved performance on tests. 6. Develop a good attitude about

21、 tests. The world won“t end if you don“t pass a test, so don“t worry excessively about a single test. Tests provide grades, but they also let you know what you need to spend more time studying, and they help make your new knowledge permanent. There are other techniques that might help you with your

22、studying. Only a few have been mentioned here. You will probably discover many others after you have tried these. Talk with your classmates about their study techniques. Share with them some of the techniques you have found to be helpful. Improving your study habits will improve your grades. （分数：15.

Make sure that your tone and diction are in unity with the passage provided. Different Types of ParentsIt is universally true that all parents in

24、 the world love their children. However, as parents“ views of life vary, they love their children in different ways. Generally speaking, in terms of how they treat their children, parents fall into three basic types: autocratic, democratic, and permissive. The autocratic parent“s word is the law. He

25、 always sets rules, expecting complete obedience from his children. He assumes that he knows what is best for his children and that they will learn discipline and respect for authority from his orders. He does not realize that he may not know best and that rules without mercy may breed contempt for

26、authority. If the child came home late from a party because a major accident on the highway tied up traffic for miles, this parent would not allow the child to explain his reasons for being late. The child would be immediately punished. This kind of parent probably has good intentions, wanting his c

27、hild to grow up “right,“ but his approach to the task may lead to conflicts. The democratic parent is not so strict. He is willing to discuss rules with his children and listen to their side of an argument. If his child came home an hour late from a party, he would listen to the explanation instead

28、of punishing the child immediately. In general, the democratic parent lays down fewer rules than his autocratic counterpart because he realizes children must learn certain things in life on their own. He prefers to play the role of an advisor and is always available when his children need help. _ _

29、 _ Too few people with children are democratic parents, which is the best of the three types. Too much or too little authority often breeds disrespect and resentment. A good parent should offer guidance and advice; he should not try to rule his children or disregard his children completely. （分数：15.

At the beginning of the nineteenth century women seem to have had almost no rights at all. They could not vote, or e

31、ven sign contracts. Their marriages were arranged by their parents, and once they were married they could not own property. Most of the time they were kept at home, and even when they were allowed to work, they were never given responsible jobs. It is strange to think that, as far as we know, most w

32、omen were happy with this situation. Today the position is quite different. Women can now vote, and choose their own husbands. In 1970 a law was passed to give them an equal share of property in the case of divorce, and in the same year the Equal Pay Act gave them the right to equal pay with men for

33、 work of equal value. Yet despite these changes, there is no doubt that there are still great differences in status between men and women. Many employersmaybe even the majorityseem to ignore the Equal Pay Act, and the average working woman is likely to earn only about half what a man earns for the s

34、ame job. Most women who do work still do unskilled jobs, while only a small proportion of the country“s workerspossibly one thirdare in fact women. This small percentage is partly because of a shortage of nurseries. If there were sufficient nurseries, up to twice as many women might well go out to w

35、ork. There is also great inequality in education. Only a quarter of all university students are women, and at present boys“schools are undoubtedly much better than girls“ schools. （分数：10.00）_英语写作自考题分类模拟 8答案解析(总分：100.00，做题时间：90 分钟)一、Writing(总题数：7，分数：100.00)1.The following passage is incomplete with o

39、nswer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material properly. （分数：15.00）_正确答案：()解析：Generally, however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all students are tes

40、ted on the same questions, was probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the development of modern industry. A room full of candidates for a state examination, timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over

41、by managers, resembles a group of workers at an automobile factory. Certainly, during examinations teachers and students are expected to act like machines. 解析 这是一道补写缺失段落的试题。在拿到试题的时候，不要匆匆掠过便下笔补充，一定要将内容看透彻。与此同时观察文章的风格和写作手法。补写段落有几个注意点： 1.观察上下文的意思，根据其逻辑关系判断中间缺失的段落的内容。 2.内容在风格上要做到与全文统一，上下文意思衔接紧密。 3.适当使用过

42、渡词语，连接上下文。 该题目给出了第一、二、四自然段，要求补写第三自然段。 第一段是讲古时候，说话是最重要的考试方式。在希腊和罗马的学校里，也都是通过大声念诗等来测试的。第二段主要讲述在中世纪欧洲的学校里，学生也都是通过和人们讨论问题来获得高级程度的学习资格的。 最后一段是说，有一种旨在测试事实情况的“客观”考试，该考试不是有关个人的见解。 从给出的段落当中，我们可以总结给予的信息对比： 段和段之间有明显的时间差，从古时候到中世纪，再到最后的目前的状况，那么中间肯定是讲述当代的事情；从内容上看，前两段是讲述有关“spoken”的内容，最后一段讲的是“written”的考试。由此可推断出第三段的

43、内容主要讲述当代的手写考试情况。譬如它的简要发展史和它的考试形式等。2.Compose an essay E-mail is an entirely new means of communication, but it gains growing popularity rapidly.
