Should
12、 such a trend continue, it would definitely lead to an undesirable result in the long run. The reasons for our ignorance of the study of Chinese are obvious. Firstly, globalization plays a major role in the prevalence of the nowadays internationally used language-English, distracting us from studyin
13、g our own language. Among college students, the influence of western lifestyle is especially strong the young are either not interested or even have no time to care for our own culture, let alone the language. Secondly, our schools are not attaching any importance to the education of Chinese. The le
14、sson hours of Chinese are far fewer than those of English, and English has now even crowded into the teaching syllabus of primary schools, occupying the time that pupils should otherwise spend studying Chinese. In order to change the situation, efforts from governments and schools alike should be ma

Artists are full of emotional feelings and creative ideas. That is why they always s
17、urprise us with artistic expressions. Because of this, I think artists should be given the freedom to create and to perform. Once restricted, the artistic talents will be restrained, which leads to banal works to cater for the taste of the mainstream culture. As we know, artists usually channel thei
18、r strong emotions and opinions into their works. For instance, the angry feelings could be represented by the odd shapes, sharp colors, and busy layout of a painting, challenging our eyes. It is because of this outside perspective that we experience anger differently. It encourages us to think, to f
19、eel and to connect. If we impose restrictions on artists, their imagination wings will be clipped and their desire to express feelings will be quenched. The works created under this circumstance are mediocre, and conform to the normal perspectives shared by all. We would have no chance to be awed by
20、 the adventurous colors, amazed by the shocking notes or moved by the affecting film. No one is able to give his talent a full play, if he is in shackles.

It was report
22、ed that the illiteracy rate in China was 4.08%, which means that about 5.3 million Chinese people are still unable to read or write a single word. Against this dire backdrop, I think that the government should establish free libraries in each town. First of all, a near-by library could save the time
23、 and energy, which are otherwise needed for a far-away library. If a community library is within short distance, we do not have to worry about the hours wasted or the energy consumed in traveling to the downtown. We could simply walk up to the community library and browse the newly arrivals at ease.
24、 Secondly, free libraries are helpful to those who are not accessible to the Internet. For those needy people who are too poor to use the Internet at home to obtain information, free libraries can benefit them a lot. They can go to these libraries to search for the information they need, without wor

According to a survey, as many as 67% of students in Guangdong uni
27、versities have worked voluntarily. I salute the efforts made by these students and I think we should encourage college students to do volunteer work. First of all, through volunteer work, students would be more involved in the community. We sometimes hear blames about the indifference of university
28、students and about the distance they keep from the local community. If students do volunteer work, such as visiting seniors home, sending food to homeless people, and raising fund for orphans, they would feel the pulse of the community and be more integrative. Secondly, volunteer work enhances the c
29、ommunication skills. In order to help those in need, volunteers must listen to peoples problems. Besides, in order to gain more help from the larger community, volunteers must convince other people the significance of their help or donation. All these require volunteers to be a good listener and a g
30、reat speaker. That is why the more volunteer work students do, the better communicators they will be. In conclusion, volunteer work is beneficial to university students, because it will bring them close to the local neighborhood and improve their communication skills. 【试题解析】 本题属于 “自由发挥型 ”作文，涉及的题材是 “

32、oints out that the importance of diligence outweighs that of talent. In learning a foreign language, I think it is still true: talent is less important than hard work. Hard work keeps us on the ground, while talent tends to make us self-satisfied and lazy. To master a foreign language, we need to ha
33、ve sufficient exposure to the language, which means hours and hours of effort put into it. We might listen to 10,000 hours of materials until we have no difficulty in communicating with a native speaker. We might read extensively before we are able to read native newspapers with ease. “Practice make
34、s perfect.“ This aged-old saying is particularly true in learning a foreign language. Talented people may be less inclined to sharpen their linguistic skills in a hardheaded manner. They would presume that they will get the same result with half of the effort, so they spend less time in reading and
35、listening. At the first stage, probably talent could help them memorize a word or mimic a native pronunciation much quicker than the less talented people. But ultimately, their tricks will run out of effect, because hard effort cannot be replaced by mere talent. In conclusion, the best scenario is t
36、o have both talent and hard work. If not, we should work harder. As Thomas Edison said, “There is no substitute for hard work“. 【试题解析】 本题属于 “立场选择型 ”作文，涉及的题材是 “文化教育 ”。该题要求考生对 “天赋是否是学习外语的一个重要因素 ”提出个人的意见。按照题目的要求，可谋篇布局如下： 开头：从爱因斯坦的名言人题，指出学习一门外语，努力比天赋更重要。 主体：阐述原因。努力可以让我们脚踏实地，而天赋会让我们变得沾沾自喜而且懒惰。有天赋的人以为自己能事半功倍，因此他们花较少的时间去读、去听。但是天赋是无法取代努力的。 结尾：引用爱迪生的话重申观点， “努力无可替代 ”。 【知识模块】 作文
