In recent years, China has
6、 witnessed rapid growth in tourism. The economy of tourist areas is largely driven by scenic spots. Many are concerned that too much tourism may cause grave harm to the environment. Tourism may harm the environment in many ways. One of the examples is that in order to attract tourists, large patches
7、 of woods are eliminated to build accommodation facilities as well as artificial scenic spots. Worse still, too many people crowding into scenic spots will break the ecological balance of these areas. Moreover, tourists often litter everywhere, which brings about great pressure on the environment pr
8、otection. All in all, overdeveloped tourism will damage the environment in many ways. So it is unwise to sacrifice the environment for the unreasonably rapid growth if tourism, and there should be a balance between tourism development and environment protection. 【知识模块】 作文 2 【正确答案】 Craze for Civil Se
9、rvice Examinations As shown in the picture, huge numbers of people elbow their way to climb up into the gold bowl which represents a civil service post. What is depicted in the drawing is especially true of todays China. In recent years, peoples passion for the civil service positions keeps increasi
10、ng, and the number of civil service examinees grows year on year. Why do so many people want to try their luck in such a fierce competition? Firstly, compared with other jobs, a civil service post normally entails better payment, better social welfare, less working pressure and more stability, which
11、 seem appealing to job hunters. Secondly, with the employment pressure increasing, many people are forced to compete for government jobs at the same time. From my point of view, it is sensible to enter for the national exams as an alternative when people are looking for jobs. But you need to ask you
12、rself whether you are suitable for the job before making decision. 【知识模块】 作文 3 【正确答案】 Post-holiday Syndrome Among Students With the gloomy prospect of returning to school, many students could suffer from post-holiday syndrome, which refers to a general feeling of depression before returning to campu
13、s life, which is caused by irregular lifestyles during the holidays. The symptoms include fatigue, lack of appetite and concentration, irritability and a feeling of helplessness. Various reasons can account for it. But most important of all, a large number of students tend to overindulge themselves
14、in eating, merrymaking and playing around during the holidays, which makes it difficult for them to adjust to regular school schedules on campus. To deal with this syndrome, My suggestions are as follows. First, exercising and sticking to a normal schedule over the holidays will make a difference an
15、d nip post-holiday syndrome in the bud. Besides, it is good to return to school a few days earlier. Early return will help students adjust to school life better. 【知识模块】 作文 4 【正确答案】 Living with Parents or Not? Some people enjoy living under the same roof with their parents even after they have grown
16、up. They hold the opinion that when living with parents, they can take better care of their parents and pay their filial piety to their parents. Meanwhile, they can return to their parents for help if they have some difficulties. Living in a big family seems to be more enjoyable for them. Others, ho
17、wever, prefer to live by themselves. They cherish the idea to be independent, seek more freedom and have a place of their own, in which they can do whatever they like. Besides, they dont want to be overprotected by their parents, and they long for a chance to face the society by themselves. As for m
18、e, I like an independent life style in spite of the fact that I love my parents. Living separately, every generation can enjoy different life styles. In addition, by living an independent life, I can develop an ability to deal with things happening in my life and build up confidence that I can manag

Some believe that lectures can help students learn more quickly. In contrast, others hold that discussions can urge students to learn by themselves. Tho
20、se who hold the first opinion suggest that students attend more lectures. In their view, by giving lectures teachers help students master the knowledge theyve accumulated over years of study and research. However, others think that in a discussion, the teacher usually guides the students instead of
21、dominating them. They argue that to get involved in a discussion, students have to develop their ability to analyze problems independently. In my opinion, I stand on the side of neither idea. First of all, either method has its disadvantages. Furthermore, each student has his or her preference. Thirdly, lectures are preferable to discussions in the teaching of science subjects, while discussions are preferable to lectures in studying the humanities. Therefore, teachers should adopt different teaching methods according to different subjects. 【知识模块】 作文
