5,假如你是李晓华,住在江城.你的加拿大笔友 Bob 来信谈到了他所居住的城市 ,
假如你是李晓华, 在江城.
I was born and have been living in the city of Jiangcheng. It's a beautiful city standing
on the bank of the Jiangcheng River .And it's a nice place to live in .I'm proud of it .
The economy of my city has developing rapidly in the past ten year. New factory,
houses and roads have built. More school and hospitals are available for the citizens;
there are still some problems, such as air and water pollution and heavy traffic in rush
hours. In my opinion , develop its economy scientifically. I also
think that the growth of its population should be brought under control so that we'll
have a better hometown in future.
6,竞争的利与弊
Competition and cooperation , Competition is a common phenomenon in our
society . We compete when we play games, we try to do better tha n others in our
study, and there is constant competition for jobs, fame, wealth and so forth.
Therefore,we can say that, in a certain sense, competition is one of the motive forces
of the development of our modern society. It is often believed, that competition and
cooperation are in opposition to each other. Some people stress competition, without
which, in their eyes, there is n o responsibility, no drive and ultimately, no progress.
Others advocate cooperation whatever they do. They are of the op inion that the
dependence of people on one another has increased, without which the society we live
in can not keep goi ng smoothly. In reality, we find that in many cases competition
goes hand in hand with take a football game for the
game, one team is competing gainst the other, but each member of the team must
cooper ate with his teammates. Otherwise, they would lose the game no matter how
skillful each individual player might be. It is clear that competition has much to do
with cooperation. As far as Im concerned,I do not agree with the view that…co
mpetition and cooperation We should never forget cooperation. In our social life,
cooperation is especially necessary be cause most work is fulfilled with or through
other people. So Ive come to the conclusion that competition are equally i mportant

young people are going out looking for jobs, so am I. I hope one day I could help

9,环境保护
Environmental Protection Environmental pollution is a term that refers to all the ways
by which man pollutes his surrounding. Man dirties th e air with gasses and smoke,
poisons the water with chemicals and other substances, and damages the soil with too
man y fertilizers and pesticides. Man also pollutes his surrounds in various other
ways. For example, people ruin natural bea uty by scattering junk and litter on the
land and in the water. They operate machines and motor vehicles that fill the air with
disturbing noise. Nearly everyone causes pollution in some way. Environmental
pollution is one of the most serious problems facing mankind today. Badly polluted
air can cause il lness, and even death. Polluted water kills fish and other marine life.
Pollution of soil reduces the amount of land availa ble for growing food.
Environmental pollution also brings ugliness to mans naturally beautiful world. Water
pollution reduces the amount of pure, fresh water that is available for such necessities
as drinking and cleani ng, and for such activities as swimming and fishing. The
pollutants that affect water come mainly from industries, farm, and sewerage systems.
Industries dump millions of tons of waste products into bodies of water each year.
These wastes include chemicals, wastes from animal and plant matter, and hundreds
of other substances. Wastes from farms include animal wastes, fertilizers, and
pesticides. Most of these materials drain off farm fields and into nearby bodies of
water. Sewerage systems carry wastes from homes, offices, and industries into water.
People, however, may differ in what they consider to be a pollutant, on the basis of
their assessment of benefits an d risks to their health and economic well…being. For
example, visible and invisible chemicals spewed into the air or w ater from a plant
nearby pose a danger to the people nearby and other animals and plants. However, if
the installation of expensive pollution controls leads to the reduction of productivity,
the unemployed might feel that the risks from pollut ed air and water are minor
weighed against the benefits of profitable employment. The same level of pollution
can also affect two people quite differently some forms of air pollution might be a
slight annoyance to a health person but life threatening to someone with em physema
or another respiratory disorder.

Why I like learning English? Firstly, English is very useful. English is the most
widely used language in the world. If we make a visit to foreign countries or do
business with foreigners, we need communicate with them in English. Secondly, with
China becoming stronger and stronger, we have more chances to go abroad. We can
know the English-speaking countries much deeper if we know English. Both China
and English-speaking countries have realized the importance of the culture
exchanging. Above all, English is useful and important, we must master English.

As adult students in Shanghai TV University, self-study becomes very important.

lesson. Third, try to finish the homework after class. Fourth, go over what I have

an English article in China Daily every day. Fourth, write an English composition
every week and ask teacher to revise that for me to improve the writing level. If you
do things above, I am sure your English will also be improved.
4) How to Overcome Difficulties in My English Studies (怎样克服学习英语困难) 怎
样克服学习英语困难)
I have made a lot of improvements in English. The following is my way to overcome
the difficulties. Everyday, I do half an hour's morning reading to try to pronounce
every word out. And I will then spend half an hour listening to English radios like
BBC to correct my pronunciation. Because I have trouble in English grammar, I
attend a full-time English class of STVU to study grammar. The teacher recommends
me to buy a grammar book—《Advanced English Grammar》. It helps me with my
English study a lot. These above are what I have done to overcome my difficulties.

prepare many things for the spring festival. Now this is my plan for the spring
festival. The first, I will visit my friends and my relatives. The second, I will make a

2) The Chinese New Year (中国新年) 中国新年)
"New Year" is a time for good cheer. In China men and women, boys and girls, all
look forward to a happy year. It is time for rest and refreshment. Business is
suspended for a time. Young fellows lay aside their school work and give themselves
up to merriment and joy. Each family has its members together for reunion. Friends
call on one another. Public places are filled with all kinds of cheerful people. Children
with lucky money in their new clothes have a delightful time playing games. The
Chinese New Year lasts about a fortnight. It gives sufficient recreation to people.

altogether 7 days, so I need to plan it in advance. Firstly, I plan to have a good rest for

A Get-together on May 1st April 15, 2007 Dear Wang Hong: How is everything
getting along with you? It is almost one year since we graduated from university. I
miss you very much. What have you been doing all these days? I have been a middle
school teacher in my hometown since graduation. Teaching always keeps me busy,
but I like my students and I love teaching, you know. So everything is fine here.
There will be a former classmates' getting together during this May Day holiday at my
school. You are my best friend. I never forget those happy days we spent together. I
hope you can come to my school when the time is due and you are free. I am looking
forward to your reply. Yours truly, Li Hua
爱好类
1) The Job I Like (职业) 职业)
I like to be a teacher. Three reasons have led me to choose this occupation. First,
teaching is learning. To make my lectures more constructive and stimulating, I have
to read more books, explore new knowledge and gain a better understanding of the
world, which is the very thing I enjoy in my life. Second, teaching means freedom and
independence. As a teacher, I'm free to use my own ideas and make my own
decisions. Finally, I like teaching because it offers certain peace of mind. All in all,
the reasons above make me like teaching best.
2) My Favorite TV program (电视节目) 电视节目)
The News Report has always been my favorite TV program. The News Report
contains a large amount of information ranging from the international political
situation to the latest football game. And the most important character is its fast pace.
Because of this fast pace, news programs can contain much information in a short
time. In my opinion, the News Report is more than a TV program. It is a way of
communication. From this program, people can know and understand world affairs. I
especially appreciate this benefit of watching the news.
3) My Favorite Book 11) The Book I Like Best 喜爱的书) (喜爱的书)
My favorite book is "Dream of The Red Chamber". The book tries to tell us that
there are different kinds of love, only one kind which should be considered as True
Love. In our life, we should marry the true love instead of wealth and good looks.
From this book, we also get to know a part of the noble people's life in Qing Dynasty
and find some life philosophies from it. So this book is very instructive to people. We
should learn more from this book as well as other books.
4) My Favorite Food (喜爱食物) 喜爱食物)
I like many different kinds of foods, among them, egg is my favorite. Egg contains a
lot of essential nutrients needed by the human body. Eggs are oval shaped spheres
with a light brown color. Egg is the basic ingredient to many dishes, like omelet and
French toast. You can easily get eggs at any supermarket, and they are sold for a very
cheap price too. Besides the cheap price, egg contains lots of nutrients and is a very
good source of energy. In conclusion, egg is my favorite food.
5) My Hobbies (我的业余爱好) 我的业余爱好)
I have many hobbies, such as sports, singing, playing the violin and keeping a diary.
I like sports very much. I go running at five o'clock in the morning. After classes in
the afternoon, I play table-tennis with my friends. These sports have kept me healthy.
At home, I like to sing and play the violin. I practice singing and playing the violin
every day. Busy as I am, I am quite happy. Of all my hobbies I like reading books
best. In my bedroom there are nearly six hundred books. There are story books,
textbooks, magazines, and others. All these books have enriched my knowledge.
6) Sports (喜爱的运动) 喜爱的运动)
Just as lots of teenagers take to pop music, I love basketball. It's part of my life. I
began to play basketball in my childhood. I still remember the good old days when I
played with my classmates after school. Later on, as I grew up, almost everything
changed, but this sport-playing basketball remained and my love of it grew even
stronger. I love this sport because it brings joys and health to my life. When I got tired
from office work, I went to the sports ground and felt refreshed. If there were worries
and cares from daily life, I went to the sports ground. There everything went away
except basketball. It is basketball that keeps me in good shape and mood.

Dear Robert: I'm very pleased to know that you are now studying in Qinghua
University from your email. How about your study and life there? Since I am now
working in an American company where I have to use English every day, I began
studying English in SHTVU this summer. But it's really very hard, and the most
difficult for me is how to memorize all these English words. I know that you are good
at English. Would you tell me your own experience in English study and give me
some good tips? Well, take care of yourself! Looking forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes Jean

Dear Robert: Haven't got your email for some time and how about you? I am worried
about my English study very much since the final examination is getting nearer and
nearer. I've got some problems in my study, especially in grammar. Sometimes, I'm
quite confused with different tenses. So my teacher recommended me a grammar
book, 《Advanced English Grammar》, which can only be bought in Beijing. Could I
trouble you to buy one for me? We haven't seen each other since we parted. I hope
you will take a vocation to Shanghai. Looking forward to hearing from you. Good
luck! Jean

记叙类
1) My Dream(梦想) (梦想)
41 I have a dream from the first time I sit in a car—I want to drive. Driving is the
most meaningful way to meet human being's desire of "faster". What's more, driving a
car can take me to any place I want whether it rains, snows, blows or not. A smooth
ride in a good car is enjoyable. With rows of trees moving backward rapidly, music
played, breeze blowing, my soul flies in the air. I love this feeling very much.
2) My Family (我的家庭) 我的家庭)
There are seven people in my family. They're my grandfather, grandmother, father,
mother, my two younger brothers and I. My father is a businessman. He's busy
working everyday. My mother is a housewife. She cooks meals, washes clothes, and
teaches us lessons everyday. One of my younger brothers is a junior high school
student, and we go to the same school. My grandparents help my parents look after
the youngest brother every day. We go to the movies every Sunday. How's your
family?
3) My Classmates (同学) 同学)
Liu Kai is my classmate. He is a good student and always ready to help others. One
day on his way to school, he saw a little girl crossing the road when a car nearly hit
her. Just then Liu Kai rushed up to her and caught her by the arm. The little girl was
saved. She told him where she lived, and he took her home. When Liu Kai hurried
into the classroom, the teacher had already begun lesson. He told the teacher why he
was late. He was then praised for what he had done.
4) My Hometown (我的家乡) 我的家乡)
My hometown is Haimen, which is not far from Shanghai. Haimen is a modern city.
There are lots of high buildings in it. Most of us live in flats because we can be close
to our friends. My hometown is a beautiful city. On either side of the roads, there are
some big trees and nice flowers. The roads are also very clean, which makes people
happy and comfortable. The weather here is very nice. I like autumn best, for it's
neither hot nor cold but very cool. I love Haimen. Welcome to my hometown.
5) My Best Friend (我的好朋友) 我的好朋友)
Linda is my best friend. She is 15 years old pretty girl with a round face and two big
black eyes. She always has a smile on her face. Every morning, we go to school
together. She studies quite well and she's one of the top students in our class. When I
have difficulty in English, I always ask her for help. We are both interested in music.
At weekends, we join the same hobby group and play the violin together. We like
each other and enjoy staying together.
6) Living in a Big Family (生活大家庭) 生活大家庭)
I live in a big family with 4 generations together. There are 5 people in my family.
We share a 3-bedroom flat with each other. My grandparents have got retired and
enjoy the love from the grandchild-me. My parents both work in a bank. I study in
Fudan University and like the college life very much. Every weekday, we are busy
with our own business. But on weekends, our whole family will gather together with
Mum cooking delicious food. I love my family and enjoy living in a big family.
7) A Day to Remember (难忙的一天) 难忙的一天)
It was Sunday. Our teacher Mr. Zhu led us to a park nearby. Usually we go to the park
to spend our holiday. But today we went there to take part in voluntary labor. We got
there at nine o'clock. Mr. Zhu divided us into three groups and then we began
working. Group One was responsible to plant trees and water flowers. Group Two
were busy collecting litter left by the tourists. I was in Group Three. We went to the
children's playground and cleaned all the equipment there. We worked very hard. At
about eleven we finished work. We all were tired but very happy. I will never forget
the day in my memory.
8) My Teacher (我的老师) 我的老师)
My English teacher is Miss Huang. She is a beautiful lady. There is always a smile
on her face. Miss Huang likes singing. She is good at playing the piano. In the
evening, she always sits in front of the piano and plays nice music. She is a good
dancer, too. Sometimes she teaches us dancing. Miss Huang likes dogs very much
because the dog is very friendly and cute. Her favorite color is blue, because blue is
the color of the sky and the sea. She is my favorite teacher. Our classmates all like her
very much.
42 议论类
1) About Television (关于电视) 关于电视)
Television has its good as well as bad sides. It makes us informed of daily news, lets
us know the outside world, provides lessons for learners, and it has brought joy and
interest into people's lives. Unfortunately, some television programs have been
extremely harmful to the young. Violent movies are shown on TV programs. Children
regard the murders as heroes or models, so they imitate. Therefore there happened
many murders or shooting cases in American campuses. What a big harm. So young
people should learn to get ride of the bad influences of TV and learn to make use of
the advantages that TV brings us.
2) The Computer (电脑) 电脑)
Nowadays, computers are becoming more and more popular. Computers can help
different people in different ways. They can help children with lessons and
homework, help students and scholars do calculations, analyze data and present the
latest achievements. Furthermore, they can assist engineers and experts in the design
of a mold, a bridge or a spaceship. Besides, computers can offer fun and
entertainment to us with the internet games, movies, and etc. Indeed, computers have
become a good companion of man.
3) How to Keep Healthy 如何体持健康
Nowadays more and more people are concerned about their health, but how to keep
healthy? First, it is necessary to take some exercise every day. Research shows that
getting plenty of exercise makes the heart beat faster and the lungs work harder.
Second, eat more fruits, vegetables and less meat. Third, getting rid of bad habits like
smoking and drinking is also an important way to keep healthy. Smoking and alcohol
drinking injure one's health a great deal, and therefore should be given up. If people
follow these three ways of keeping fit, they'll greatly improve their health.
5) Advantages and Disadvantages of the Mobile Phone (使用手机好处和坏处) 使用
手机好处和坏处)
Like everything else, mobile phones have both favorable and unfavorable aspects.
First, it's useful. As a wireless mobile telephone, it's easy and handy to call wherever
one goes and call the one however far away he is. Second, it's convenient. Whenever
one meets trouble or something urgent, one can make a call immediately. However,
the mobile phone also has many disadvantages. First, it's expensive to buy and costly
to pay the bills. Second, it's also easy to lose and costly to get it repaired. Third, it's
alleged the microwaves in it might do harm to people's health. I believe its advantages
will far outweigh disadvantages soon.
6) My Opinion on Cell Phones(关于手机的看法) (关于手机的看法)
Cell phones do play an important role in people's daily life, but every coin has its
two sides. To start with, as a wireless mobile phone, it's convenient for the user at any
time to contact others. Secondly, it's a helpful companion. With a multifunctional cell
phone in hand, one can easily surf the net, downloading what he needs. However, the
cell phone has many disadvantages.
For one thing, the machine itself is very expensive and its local service is very costly,
not to mention its global service. For another, the radiation from the mobile phones
might do harm to the user's health. In my opinion, with its expenses being reduced
sharply after China's entry into the WTO, its development will have a brighter future.
Therefore its advantages will far outweigh its disadvantages.
7) About Friendship (关于友谊) 关于友谊)
Friendship is a kind of human relations. It is a human instinct to make friends. When
in trouble, we need friends to offer us help, support and encouragement. With success
achieved, we also need friends to share our joys. Friendship is one of the greatest
pleasures that we can enjoy. It implies loyalty, cordiality, sympathy, affection, and
readiness to help. In short, when we have established friendship, we ought to cherish
and treasure it. Only thus, can we develop real friendship and keep the sacred lamp of
friendship burning all our life.
8) Water and Life (水与生活) 水与生活)
While we are enjoying the rich fruits of modern industrialization, we are losing
something precious on this planet. Fresh water, among others, is dwindling down day
by day, owing to the large-scale industrialization everywhere in the world. Just as
sunshine is a necessity to life, so is fresh water. Without fresh water, our human
society would come to a stop. 43 As fresh water is such an important resource to the
human society, we need to treasure it as we treasure our life, but how?
First, our government should have a good plan for the use of fresh water and develop
industries that consume less water. Second, waste water must be recycled. Finally
every one of us should do his bit to save water.
9) Bad Manners in Public (公共场所不礼貌) 公共场所不礼貌)
Although we consider ourselves as highly advanced beings living in a civilized
society, bad manners can still be found here and there. For example, some cyclists run
the red traffic lights, many passengers litter waste papers and plastic bags in public
places, and some tourists scrabble in tourist attractions, let alone spit on the street. In
the cinema, some people talk loudly on cell phones in front of others.
I'm strongly against talking loudly in the cinema, for this behavior shows no respect
at all to others; what's worse, it upsets the audience who are in the mood of having
fun.
