At the very beginning, it is language barriers that block the development of foreign trades and even sometimes cause great losses. Therefore, there are more and more schools that attach importance to education of foreign langu

15、ages, especially in English teaching. We must admit a fact that there is a large population in China and people“s education degree is various. People who can understand or speak English are quite small. It is no doubt that English language teaching is far from enough and we should pay much attention

16、 to it. Here is an example. Most of college students who are not majored in English, until their graduation from college, it is tough for them to make a very simple sentence, let alone speaking fluent English. When they come across a foreigner, they can only say “hello“. One main reason that leaded

17、to this result is the problem of our educational system. When teachers give an English class, they“re accustomed to apply more Chinese rather than English. As for students, they seldom have English environment to practice it and the chances of speaking English is too rare. So it is still a long way

18、to polish up this situation that cause the English level of students is very low. Along with many graduates who studied abroad now returned to became college English teachers, such situation is gradually improving. Under their efforts, great progresses can be seen in English language teaching. Yet i

Volunteers contributed tremendously to success of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games. As we know, the Volunteering spirit means c

22、ontribution. Those volunteers who silently but diligently contributed should be given the same respect as we gave to the athletes who fight in the sports arena. Thousands of trained volunteers demonstrated a giving spirit through their services, and more and more people learned about and understood

23、the volunteering spirit. Their efforts provided selfless contributions to people and touched every heart they contact. And in the process, a giving spirit is spread. Volunteers are also cultural ambassadors. They learned about foreign cultures while serving the athletes and visitors, and helped them

24、 know about good traditions and customs in China, so more foreign friends would come to know China and fell in love with China, which promoted friendly communications, facilitated mutual understandings, and deepened friendship between people all around the world.4.Directions: Read the following para

At first, this can ease traffic during the long holidays and add more three-day short breaks on traditional Chinese festivals including Qing Ming, Dragon Boat and Mid-Au

28、tumn. Just because of this, it would be nice to keep safe as a result of crowd. In addition, having several short holidays throughout the year will make persons difficult to forget their works and studies. Having several shorter vacations would also make it easier to schedule vacations for students

29、and for workers. All of us need vacation time during the same three months and this helps oneself to adjust which is hard on our businesses and our careers.5.Directions: “Go West, Young Man“ was a popular saying of the 19 century in the United States, referring to opportunities on the frontier.
