9、opic. 1 【正确答案】 The New Atmosphere in TV Media With the society entering the information age, TV media has become a powerful means of market competition. Many new TV programs, like “Daddy, Where Are We Heading For?“ , “Running Man“ , “Chinese Rising Star“ , “Two Days One Night“ and so on, lead the ne
10、w fashion trend. In terms of this, even though some people present the idea that Chinese TV media use too much experience of other countries for reference, I still insist on the point that the rising of new TV programs in China is a good phenomenon and should be encouraged. First of all, the law of
11、nature survival of the fittest, also applies to the competition among TV stations. The fierce competition urges all the TV stations to make greater efforts to win a wider audience and try their best to possess better position than before. In the process of introducing and learning from foreign TV pr
12、ograms, all the TV stations will have to face up to unprecedented challenges, and among which only the strongest one can sustain innovation and know how to jump from the old management modes to the new ones. Thus, introducing new TV program forms into our country can boost TV industry. Secondly, the
13、 emergence of new TV programs helps to improve the audiences appreciation level. If Chinese TV stations choose to import television shows abroad, these programs must be very successful and could withstand severe market tests. Wonderful programs can catch the audiences attention and enrich their life
14、, providing people with a wider range of topics, like top stars, fashion trends, popular games and so on. Therefore, the audience will have diverse forms of entertainment thanks to the innovation in TV media field. Finally, the localization of TV programs is a form of innovation and it provides us n
15、ew opportunities to develop our TV culture. Our Chinese government has been constantly stressing the importance of innovation. We firmly believe that innovation is the soul of a nations progress and the invariable force of a countrys prosperity. New TV programs inspire innovation in programming, and
16、 propose higher demand for future TV industry. Consequently, for all the reasons above, I hold that the new atmosphere in domestic TV media is quite inspiring. The general public should treat these new TV programs with an open and inclusive perspective, and appreciate the creativity the media worker
17、s have displayed. 【知识模块】 作文 2 【正确答案】 My Views on Protecting Helpers The education about being ready to help others we receive from childhood benefits us quite a lot, because helping whoever in need of help makes our life more meaningful. In modern society, however, less and less people would be will
18、ing to help the weak because of the extortion of Good Samaritan. The helpers may be extorted when they lend a helping hand, which may lead to the results of the helpers sadness and disappointment. Considering the factors contributing to the extortion, I hold the view that we should take two effectiv
19、e ways to solve the problems that we are confronted with and achieve the result of protecting the helpers. On the one hand, there are legal loopholes that tempt extortioners to get illegal benefits from the helpers by illegal means. Our country has neither a Good Samaritan law to help or protect the
20、 helpers, nor legal tools to punish those who attempt to extort the Good Samaritan. Nonetheless, the good news is that some local governments have begun to pay close attention to this social problem. Take Shenzhen government as an example. It is taking the legislation of Good Samaritan Protection in
21、to consideration, and nearly ninety percent people support this practice. We hope that the helpers wont have any fear of attacks from behind under the protection of Good Samaritan Protection law. On the other hand, such a bad social phenomenon reveals the loss of peoples social morality. “Present ro
22、se to others with remaining fragrance at hand“ is a famous British proverb, which means that doing a little thing for others would make you feel warm and happy. Being willing to help others is a kind of virtue, and it helps to promote a harmonious interpersonal relationship. The extortioners should
23、put themselves in the helpers shoes when they are trying to frame a case against the helpers, and then they will feel ashamed for themselves. After going through such kind of immoral events, we could not deny the fact that moral deficiency has become a serious problem in China. Since the constructio
24、n of social morality needs to be strengthened, we should call on every citizen to help the weak and reconstruct the trust between each other. All in all, the most effective way to protect helpers is to make sure that law and morality should work along both lines, so that our Chinese people could inh
25、erit fine traditions and create a harmonious society eventually. 【知识模块】 作文 3 【正确答案】 Legislation on SNS Should Be Introduced Along with the popularization of the Internet, the social network is playing a more and more important role in peoples life both at home and abroad, such as Microblog, Twitter,
26、 Facebook, etc. Microblog, a social networking app in China, has been growing rapidly in recent years, dwarfing many other forms of media that came into being three or four years ago. Anybody in the SNS world could keep abreast of what is happening elsewhere in the world and keep in deep touch with
27、people around. But rumors, mudslinging and defamation come along with the freedom of peoples tweets. In terms of this, I hold that related laws and regulations should be made to change this situation. As to mudslinging, I suggest that more effective and stricter rules be made that require microblogg
28、ers to register their real names to better safeguard all netizens privacy and at the same time related websites should be held accountable in case they had netizens information publicized. At present, the behavior of stealing personal information through the network is not surprising any more. Priva
29、cy issues have often put Internet companies under the spotlight. For that reason, I contend that the government is supposed to introduce legislation to safeguard peoples freedom of speech and protect peoples personal information security. As to rumors and defamation, I believe that there should be l
30、egislation on SNS rumor-spreading and mischievous gossip. With millions of people sharing news and views every day through microblogs, it is no surprise that rumors and gossip spread so quickly. People find it difficult to distinguish between the truth and unfounded rumors in SNS, where a large amou
31、nt of information without certification is easily spread across a popular network, such as the “Shanxi earthquake“ and “Louis Chas death“. Another case in point is that after appearing on a dating show on Shanghai-based Dragon TV, a guest said her microblog inbox was filled with letters lashing out
32、at her every day, because of her enthusiasm for Japanese culture and a failed marriage. She spent a whole night arguing with one netizen, feeling tired and puzzled. Some netizens are just relentless in their resentment of her. However, our countrys legislation in these aspects is far from being soun
33、d enough. Most of the rumor spreaders and detractors have not received due punishment yet. From the above, we can see that relevant legal provisions to curb this situation should be introduced. As the saying goes, nothing can be accomplished without norms or standards. As a new thing, the social net
34、work need the restriction of law. Although there are some laws relevant to the Internet, I do hope that the government could introduce more related laws specific to SNS as soon as possible to ensure a secure and harmonious social network environment. 【知识模块】 作文 4 【正确答案】 Native English Teachers Are Mo
35、re Suitable for English Learners With the development of economy and society, we are now living in a globalized world. As English is the only worldwide used language, English learning classes are correspondingly popular all over the world. However, when asked whether native English teachers are bett
36、er than non-native English teachers, different people hold different views. From my point of view, native English teachers are more suitable for English learners because they master the latest English expressions, have a good knowledge of western culture and can help learners think in an authentic w
37、ay. First of all, native English speakers master the latest English expressions. With time going by, everything is changing, so are languages. As a common language frequently used all over the world, the words and phrases of English update with time. In order to catch up with the current trend, lear
38、ners need to know the meaning of new expressions as well as their usage. However, most non-native English teachers lack the abilities to teach learners these new expressions as they themselves havent mastered them. Obviously, it is more suitable for English learners to take the classes of native Eng
39、lish teachers. Secondly, since native English teachers come from the western culture, they have a good knowledge of western culture. As Js known to all, immersed education is a way of fast learning for English learners. Thus, full play should be given to cultural study and it is the native English t
40、eachers that English learners need most. In comparison, non-native English teachers are limited in universal knowledge of the western culture so they cannot provide enough information about the western culture. In a word, native English teachers are better than their counterparts in this aspect. Las
41、t but not least, native English teachers help English learners think in an authentic way. As a matter of fact, learning a language is not simply memorizing its words and grammar, but expressing oneself in its way. Native English teachers can not only teach learners English, but also help them think
42、and express in an English way. By contrast, non-native English teachers lack this advantage and cannot compete with their counterparts. Thus, native English teacher is a better choice. To sum up, native English teachers master the latest English expressions, acquire a good knowledge of western cultu
43、re and can help learners think in an authentic way. So compared with non-native English teachers, native English teachers are more suitable for English learners. 【知识模块】 作文 5 【正确答案】 Should Highways Be Toll-free on Holidays and Festivals? Recently, the government decided to abandon the use of tolls on
44、 Chinas expressways during the eight-day “Golden Week“ holiday for the Mid-Autumn Festival and the National Day. The policy has attracted huge attention and sparked debates among people. Some people believe that the policy should be adjusted, since we can often hear lots of people complain about the
45、 massive traffic jam caused by the move. There are also people who firmly advocate the practice of holiday toll-free policy. As far as I am concerned, I am in favor of the former opinion. Holiday toll-free policy has given rise to a lot of problems. Above everything else is the heavy traffic congest
46、ion. The fact is that toll-free highways leave hundreds of thousands of drivers stuck in traffic during the Mid-Autumn Festival by spurring unprecedented road traffic volume. According to media reports, with the traffic jams, some motorists were seen playing badminton and even walking their dogs on
47、the expressways. Driving was just like crawling along, just a few kilometers an hour. The huge crowds, heavy traffic and frequent road accidents have taken some of the luster out of the Golden Week. Lots of travelers complained that they waited so long on the highways and in the end they didnt have
48、time to take a good look at the spot. On the other hand, those who are in favor of this policy have their own reasons. For one thing, they maintain that the policy will save a lot on peoples travel expenses. The measure is expected to save travelers about 10 billion yuan in highway tolls during the
49、coming holiday. For another, they argue that the policy can help to promote the development of tourism industry. The removal of toll fees will not only make travel cheaper and more convenient, but also boost the development of relevant service industries, as people will spend more money on related services, such as food and accommodation. Although the gesture of goodwill would be appreciated, the government should be better prepared to handle the heavy traffic flow. As far as I am concerned, toll-free polic
