12、语四级（作文）模拟试卷 15答案与解析 SECTION A COMPOSITION (35 MIN) 1 【正确答案】 The Weaknesses of the “Strawberry Generation The so-called “ Strawberry Generation“ refers to those who are soft and get hurt easily. They seem unbearably spoilt and cant take much pressure. Besides the lack of stress management, there are
13、other weaknesses such as the lack of money management, the lack of plan for the future and so on. The first is the most infamous weakness the lack of stress management. Many statistics show that young people of the Strawberry Generation are not good at handling the pressure that they face. When they
14、 cannot handle the stress, they tend to be depressed or choose to end their own lives. In addition, people of the Strawberry Generation lack the good habit of money management. They do not have the habit to deposit money in the bank for their future use: instead, they spend most of it. This phenomen
15、on creates a long-term hidden social problem of the care for the old in the future when the Strawberry Generation has aged. The third weakness is the lack of plan for their future they live only for their own happiness and freedom while lacking a blueprint for their future life. All in all, the weak
16、nesses of Strawberry Generation are not only the problems of those who belong to the Strawberry Generation and their families, they are also the problems of the whole society. If they can get rid of their weaknesses, the Strawberry Generation will not only have better individual future but also solv
17、e the problems of the whole society. 【知识模块】 作文 2 【正确答案】 Is Leader a Good Position? Every group consists of a leader and many followers. Some students would rather choose to be a follower when they are facing different positions in the clubs of the universities. To them, the position of leader means
18、responsibility, pressure and laborious tasks, and therefore it is not likable at all. However, I think that its always better to be a leader than a follower, as the position of a leader is the best position to cultivate ones abilities. First of all, although the leader has much more responsibility a
19、nd pressure than anyone else, the high sense of conscientiousness that is built in the position of a leader is essential in all kinds of jobs. Moreover, a leader might not be hands-on, but he must take the initiative and anticipate every aspect of the task, so the president of the students union, fo
20、r example, would have a more comprehensive perspective than his members do. There is another argument that deserves some words here. The job of a leader is not only giving orders, but also motivating and encouraging his followers. A leader should also reconcile the disputes if necessary, thus being
21、a leader is the opportunity to develop communication and inter-personal skills. With all these reasons being contemplated, the advantages of being a leader carry more weight than disadvantages. So take the position of a leader, you can harvest a lot from it. 【知识模块】 作文 3 【正确答案】 Graduation, Synonym of
22、 Unemployment? Nowadays its often heard that graduation is the synonym of unemployment. The hope of obtaining a decent job becomes slimmer and slimmer. And thus deep anxiety arises and casts the graduates into a sea of melancholy. Quite a lot of students worry about their future, which has caught th
23、e societys great attention. No doubt todays labor market is not what it was years ago. We must have a clear understanding of the changes in the situation and make a corresponding shift of our psychology and expectation. Theres no job that is valueless and neither rhyme nor reason. With a sober mind
24、we start our career and a great pickup is waiting for us. God helps those who help themselves. There are plenty of opportunities in our society, but only those who are prepared adequately and qualified highly can make use of them to achieve their purposes. Chance favors the minds that are prepared.
25、Somewhere under the stars, God has a job for us to do, and nobody else can do it and its really worthwhile and it pays off. Some of us must find our place by trial and error. It can take time, with dead ends along the way. But we should not get discouraged just because others seem more skilled. Usua
26、lly its not raw talent but drive that makes the difference. We must be the master of our fate and captain of our career ship. 【知识模块】 作文 4 【正确答案】 Will Computers Replace Teachers? The information and computer technologies have boosted the efficiency and convenience of peoples work and study. Their app
27、lication in school education has provided teachers and students with new approaches to knowledge and information. But however useful computers are, they are still integrated into the teaching curriculum as instrumental teaching aid. They have to follow instructions designed by man and cannot play th
28、e role of human brain. So it is impossible for computers to replace teachers. I admit that computers benefit students in many ways, they can do their assignments with the help of appropriate software. They also access the Internet for research and entertainment. But as Spencer said, “ education has
29、for its object the formation of character. “ This is also the essence of the quality-oriented education advocated by our government. It aims at producing well-rounded students but only developing their ability to perform well on academic examinations. We need students who can think creatively, not c
30、ut and paste their essays out of software encyclopedia. We need students who can tell truth from lies, not download unedited trivia from the Internet. We need students who can communicate face-to-face with others, not hide behind e-mails. These are the very aspects where teachers can provide help an
31、d guidance. So teachers neednt fear they would be replaced by computers. Instead, they should worry that if they did not adopt new technology, they would become outdated. Faced with the challenge of modern technology, what they should do is to change their attitudes. By learning and using this progressive approach, they can make their teaching more interactive and effective. 【知识模块】 作文
