It has been on a steady increase in

5、 recent years. In 2010, the total number of rural migrant workers in China amounted to 242 million. What accounts for the changes reflected in the above table? As far as I am concerned, there are mainly three reasons. First of all, the policies are increasingly advantageous to those farmers who work

6、 in cities. Secondly, urbanization effectively transforms farmers into urban residents. What s more, modern agricultural production has liberated a vast rural labor force. From the above discussions, we can confidently predict that the trend described in the table will continue for quite a long time

7、, and more and more farmers will come to work and reside in big cities. 【试题解析】 第一段描述了图表的情况，指出农民工的数量在近几年大幅增加。 第二段分析这种现象的原因：政府放宽农民工进城务工的政策；城市化进程有效地促进了农民成为城市居民；农业生产的现代化解放了大量的农村劳动力。 第三段对这种现象作出了预测：这种趋势在很长一段 时间内将会持续，越来越多的农民会到城市工作和居住。 【知识模块】 作文 2 【正确答案】 Never Give Up Most people believe that even when we a

8、re in disadvantageous circumstances, we should never give up. The resons are as follows. Firstly, the chance of achieving a considerable success the first time we try something is practically non-existent. Everything takes time. Secondly, just as the saying goes, “Perseverance is falling nineteen ti

9、mes and succeeding the twentieth.“ We must hold on. The argument can also be illustrated by the following examples. Winston Churchill, the famous former British Prime Minister, had once risen brilliantly to lead the British people. One of his famous speech consisted of only three words, “Never Give

10、Up!“ Similarly, Michael Jordan, the great American basketball player, has a famous saying, “I may accept defeat, but I dont accept giving up.“ In conclusion, I think we should always keep the three words Never Give Up in our minds, and try our best to pursue our dreams. And I believe that we can ove

11、rcome the difficulties and eventually obtain success as long as we never give up. 【试题解析】 第一段提出多数人认为人们即使遇到挫折，也不应该放弃。段中Everything takes time和 We must hold on铿锵有力，表达清楚，和长句构成对比。 第二段分别引用了英国前首相 Winston Churchill和美国篮球运动员 Michael Jordan这两个具体的例子来说明 “永不言弃 ”的重要性。 第三段阐述自己的观点，即 “永不言弃 ”在我们通往成功的路上起着至关重要的作用。 【知识模块】

12、 作文 3 【正确答案】 Happiness Lies in Contentment As the ancient Chinese proverb goes, “Happiness lies in contentment.“ It means that if a person is easy to be contented, he will always be happy.

13、nd they hold that the biggest treasure in life is happiness. In their views, contentment is an indispensable key to cheerfulness and felicity, while excessive material property is of little use. They firmly believe in the saying “A contented mind is a perpetual feast. “ On the other hand, some peopl

14、e consider that contentment manifests idleness and loss of ambition, and people who are easy to be contented usually dont have the courage to face the reality. Discontent is the first step to progress. In my view, people should never give up the enterprising spirit to strive for their dreams as disc

15、ontent promotes the development of society. 【试题解析】 文章第一段提出古语： “知足常乐 ”，并解释其含义。 第二段分析了两种观点：一种观点认为人生最大的财富就是快乐，而知足正是获得快乐的秘诀；另一种观点认为满足现状是懒惰、没有上进心和逃避现实的表现，只有不满足才能获得进步。 在最后一段中，作者提出自己的观点：人们不可以放弃追求梦想的进取精神，社会的进步正是人们不满足于现状的结果。 【知识模块】 作文 4 【正确答案】 No Pains, No Gains The proverb “No pains, no gains.“ has long bee

16、n familiar to most of us. The message it conveys is that we are supposed to make strenuous efforts whenever we attempt to succeed in a certain field. Lets take English learning as an example. If we want to improve our English listening ability, we are required to keep on listening to different mater

17、ials, both intensively and extensively, and make notes on them from time to time. Another good case in point is acrobatics.
