Similar acts are
13、not rare now in Chinese universities, but they are criticized by many people as fouling the ivory tower with the stink of money. As I see it, universities are justified to accept financial support from enterprises and name one of their buildings after the benefactor“s brand name in return. To begin
14、with, it is an internationally common practice to name school buildings after enterprises or entrepreneurs whose endowment universities receive. Familiar names such as Yale, Harvard and Stanford are all taken from their sponsors. Hence, we should not make a big fuss out of a widely accepted practice
15、. As a matter of fact, across China, students and teachers are not surprised to find Yifu Building, Li Zhaoji Science and Technology Building and Foxconn Research Center of Micro/Nano Technology, to name a few. Naming buildings after the patrons is a token of reciprocation, irrelevant to the so-call
16、ed “downfall“ of higher education. Therefore, we should not be too harsh on universities that want to be grateful to their benefactors by endorsing their names in buildings. Furthermore, named sponsorship is a win-win deal benefiting both universities and enterprises. Education is a meaningful under
17、taking that costs money. And when educational input is very limited, contributions from enterprises are greatly welcome and encouraged. It is a charitable act channeling social capitals into educational endeavors, generating a positive social impact. To commemorate this generosity and benevolence, a
18、 memorial monument or a nameplate on a building is very reasonable. Likewise, for the generous enterprises, their brand image could be enhanced with their impressive presence in prestige universities. In other words, both universities and companies can get what they want. Despite the reasonable grou
19、nds of accepting financial support, school authorities are advised to go through democratic procedures to seek an acceptable solution to show gratitude without compromising the cultural essence of the school. Universities should never be enslaved by companies and reduced to yet another PR puppet. In
20、 conclusion, universities are justified to bond with enterprises and accept their financial support. This is internationally acknowledged and beneficial to both parties, as long as the universities remain independent and immune to the manipulation of enterprises. 本题属于“表达看法型”论说文,涉及的题材是“文化教育”。该题要求考生就“

23、d cultural relics give way to urban development? Write an essay of about 400 words. You should supply an appropriate title for your essay. (分数:20.00)_正确答案:()解析:范文 Civilization on BulldozersIn 1951, a stone fell from an ancient memorial archway in Chaozhou City and killed a postal worker. In light of
24、 this accident and a busy traffic flow, 150 archways in the city were all torn down. Not until 2009 were 22 of them on Taiping Road restored. Their original antiqueness, however, is nowhere to be found. It“s thus my belief that historic relics should never be sacrificed to make way for urban develop
25、ment. Firstly, intangible values of cultural relics are unique and thus difficult to replicate. In reality, historic buildings in the way of modernization are often labeled as mined and dangerous and condemned to reckless demolition. Once the demolition draws public attention, the relevant departmen
26、ts would try to appease the public anger by announcing a project of restoration. But cultural relics are not toy building blocks that can be pulled down and rebuilt. Nor are they simply an aggregation of bricks and tiles, but monuments that carry historical significance. A restored history, however
27、convincing and splendid, is at best a replica. Secondly, tearing down historic buildings to give way for modernization is a short-sighted act at the expense of cultural diversity. Because of the historical and geographical differences, cities are blessed with their own architectural styles and struc
28、tures. For example, Qilou buildings flourished in the old city areas of Guangzhou due to hot and humid climate, while Beijing was famous for its courtyards designed to go with the feng shui principles. Replacing local historic architecture with uniform commercial and residential blocks will eventual
29、ly transform hundreds of culturally diverse cities into the banally identical communities. To make matters worse, with the absence of cultural diversity, the sense of belonging and identity will be lost. We would be unable to“ identify ourselves and recollect our collective memory by virtue of local
30、 hallmarks. For instance, if the ancient kiln in Foshan were torn down, descendants would have a hard time remembering that porcelain and pottery were the pride of Foshan. With the last trace effaced, the sorrow and happiness associated with a familiar environment gradually fades out from our memory
31、. What was leveled to the ground is not only our invaluable cultural heritage, but our sense of social cohesion In conclusion, cultural relics should be preserved. They are the living history, from which our future generations are able to make sense of who they are and who we were. 本题属于“表达看法型”论说文,涉及
32、的题材是“文化教育”。题目要求考生就“文化古迹是否要为城市发展让路”提出个人看法。按照题目的要求,可谋篇布局如下: 开头:由潮州牌坊入题,并提出个人观点不应当牺牲历史古迹来实现城市发展。 主体:分三方面阐述原因。 1将经济利益置于文化保护之上的行为是对历史文化的不尊重。文化古迹不是玩具积木可以随便推倒和重建。历史文化遗产有些时候是无法复制的。 2通过拆除文化古迹为现代化让路,这是以牺牲文化多元化为代价的短视行为。举广州的骑楼、北京的四合院为例,与随处可见的跨国酒店、写字楼和千篇一律的商品房相对照。 3由于文化多样性的缺失,文化归属感和认同感的也将消失殆尽。举佛山古窑为例。 结尾:重申观点,呼应

(分数:20.00)_正确答案:()解析:范文 What Makes a Festive Spring Festival?Spring Festival, or Chinese New Year, is one of the most important occasions in China. However, nowadays Chinese people think the festival is not as festive as it used to be
35、. In my views, there are three ways in which we can make Spring Festival more enjoyable. For individuals, we should add a human touch to the annual greetings. It is now a common practice to send messages through mobile phones to friends and relatives to deliver our good wishes in Spring Festival. Ma
36、ny of us just send out standardized well-wishing texts, copied or slightly modified from Internet. Convenient as this may be, people may doubt the sincerity of those who simply forward the one-size-fits-all messages. Therefore, we had better create some individualized messages to the recipients. We
37、may also choose to phone others or pay them a visit to deliver our good wishes, which will make them happier. And they will certainly appreciate our efforts and feel the warmth of Spring Festival. For families, it“s very important that elder people have more tolerance on youngsters“ choices of life.
38、 Traditionally, relatives of an extended family would gather together for a family reunion. This practice is still carried on, but with less emotional appeal. Younger generations are now hiding themselves from these reunion parties, for fear that they would be repeatedly asked about their marital pl
39、an, relationship status, salaries and other embarrassing issues. Nothing could be more annoying than this well-meant “interrogation“. To enjoy the precious time of family reunions, elders should be less curious and judgmental on young people“s life. For local governments, it is advisable to encourag
40、e some custom of celebrations to perk up the festive mood. For instance, fireworks and firecrackers were once the most appealing elements in the Chinese New Year. But they have been banned for the sake of citizen“s safety. Instead of a total ban, government could set up some designated areas for cit
41、izens to play fireworks and firecrackers. This measure will restore the happiness and noisiness“ of the festival, without evoking healthy concerns. Another measure which could be taken by the local governments is to stage some culture-specific activities and competitions, such as flower markets, lio
42、n dancing, temple fairs, and garden party. These cultural events will not only encourage people to contribute to an exciting festival, but also help pass on the centuries-long tradition forward. To conclude, with our concerted efforts made by individuals, families and local governments, Chinese New
43、Year could be as engaging and intriguing as ever. 本题属于“表达看法型”论说文,涉及的题材是“文化教育”。该题要求考生就“如何让春节更有年味”提出建议。按照题目的要求,可谋篇布局如下: 开头:指出要春节更有年味,需要三方面的努力。 主体:分三方面阐述。 1个人方面的努力。春节的问候要更有人情味。现在的贺年短信都是千篇一律的。发短信时应该尽量自己编写,多花点心思;或者选择打电话、登门拜年的方式,这样大家都能感受节日的温暖。 2在家庭方面,长辈们应该给年轻人更多的生活空间。家庭聚会的时候不要老是询问一些年轻人觉得厌烦的问题。长辈们不要对年轻人的生活
44、选择指指点点。 3政府要鼓励一些传统的习俗,举行多种文化活动或比赛。举放鞭炮为例: 结尾:重申观点,要使春节有年味,需要个人、家庭和政府三方面的共同努力。4.Arguments on Post-80s Writers关于 80 后作家的争议 The post-80s now have become the main stream in the society.

47、t post-80s writers are very cynical in their writings and might lead to a “lost generation“. As I see it, post-80s writers are not a bad influence on younger generations, but a good one. To begin with, the literature by post-80s writers makes youngsters“ voices heard. In the traditional society, opinions of senior people were extremely important while those of the younger ones
