(20 points)1 【正确答案】 My View on TelevisionThe advent of Television has exerted a strong influence on o
9、ur lives. But in my view, Television watching should be minimized if we want to live a more meaningful and healthy life. The reasons are as follows:First of all, people spend too much time watching Television to carry out other activities which are better. Many people schedule what they do around pl
10、anned periods of viewing. It is estimated that the average child today spend more time watching TV than in any other activities save for sleep. If people would turn off TV and enjoy a quiet hour, they might be able to rediscover reading in which they would probably find more entertainment. Or they m
11、ight take a walk with their family and discuss some problems that have been bothering them.Secondly, a growing number of movies and shows display violence and sex for a sensational effect. But viewers, especially teenagers may take this as granted indiscriminately and this may pose a serious threat
12、to our society.Thirdly, scientists have found out that prolonged exposure to artificial light may alter human cells, thus poses a danger to human health. Therefore, life-long TV exposure might well be a physical risk to human beings.In short, it is high time that we turned off TV and have some fun i
13、n other activities. By using the quiet hours to do something more useful, we may get to like our new life better.【知识模块】 短文写作2 【正确答案】 The Show Should Go OnSince 1983, CCTV has been putting up a variety of entertainment shows on the Eve of the traditional Chinese New Year every year. Some television w
14、atchers have got tired of the show and suggest that it be stopped and that some other shows like movies or news may be as good. But I dont think the elimination of this show is a good idea.This show was created at the time when Chinese people hadnt got over the shadow of cultural deprivation in the
15、Cultural Revolution. Through the years it has become one of the three indispensable traditions for Chinese people (the other two being letting off firecrackers and a carefully prepared meal). All the top singers, dancers, entertainers gather together to put up a show to entertain hundreds of million
16、s of Chinese people, most of whom will not get as much fun from other TV programs.Spring Festival is a time for family reunion and is also deeply rooted in Chinese culture. Since 1983, almost every television is tuned to Channel One, CCTV at eight oclock sharp on the Chinese New Years Eve. This brin
17、gs a sense of intimacy among Chinese people and makes them feel they belong together.Therefore, it would not be wise to stop the show on the Eve of Spring Festival altogether. It has become a part of Chinese tradition, and thus a part of Chinese culture.【知识模块】 短文写作3 【正确答案】 Western Fast Food and Trad
18、itional Chinese CuisineSince American style fast food was introduced into Chinese market, it has been spreading at a blazing speed. Many people like to go to McDonald s and KFC for hamburgers, French fries and ice cream, but I still prefer traditional Chinese meal.First of all, by eating traditional
19、 Chinese meal, one can keep a well-balanced diet. Foods in McDonalds and KFC typically contain high calories and excessive calories will accumulate in the form of fat in the body and make people overweight. But a typical Chinese meal provides one with enough carbohydrates, vitamins and protein that
20、are needed to keep the physical fitness of humans.Also, people dont chew their food enough when they have western style fast food. This adds to the burden of their digestive system. Conversely, Chinese people typically have some tea before the main courses are served. And they dont rush themselves d
21、uring the meal. This not only brings the pleasure of enjoying a wonderful meal, at the same time it makes them relax and feel better.Therefore, although one can eat western fast food for a change, eating Chinese food is more healthy and enjoyable.【知识模块】 短文写作4 【正确答案】 Pollution: An Increasing Concern
22、in ChinaIt is reported that ten big cities in China are being ranked among the top twenty cities with the highest pollution index in the world. This means it is high time that we did something to bring the situation under control.Many factors are contributing to the worsening situation: industrial w
23、astes pumped into the air, the lakes and the rivers; more and more automobiles crowding into the streets; the widespread use of plastic bags etc.To my view, stricter laws and regulations must be implemented to check pollution. Industries that release wastes without permission should be heavily fined
24、. Cars should be equipped to minimize the exhaust they release into the air. And the use of plastic bags and disposable meal boxes should be banned.Whats more, the media should play an important role in implanting a sense of environmental consciousness into peoples mind.If everybody works toward a c
25、ommon goal of making the environment better, we can create a cleaner and lovelier world for us and for the coming generations as well.【知识模块】 短文写作5 【正确答案】 NewspapersAs people living in the twentieth century, we are heavily dependent on the continuous communication between people who are widely separa
26、ted with each other. Newspapers play a vital role in the diffusion of the latest events and the education of the public.Newspapers are important to us because we can learn a great deal about the world from them. All of us are aware of situations and events that happen thousands of miles away. In the
27、 twentieth century, the widespread use of newspaper has greatly intensified the global diffusion of information. For over half a century, newspapers were the chief basis upon which information was conveyed quickly and comprehensively to a mass public.Another advantage of newspapers is that a large n
28、umber of them are published on a daily basis. This makes them the earliest reporter of the latest events on printed matters. Although the influence of newspapers waned with the rise of radio and television, many people still find reading newspapers at breakfast and on their way to work an enjoyable experience.I believe that newspapers are, and will remain, an important part of our lives for many years to come.【知识模块】 短文写作
