第一章：历年真题与范文
1999.1真题
directions: for this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic. don’t be afraid to say“no”. you should write at least 100 words and you should base your composition on the outline (given in chinese) below:
1.别人请求帮助时,在什么情况下我们会说“不”
2.为什么有些人在该说“不”的时候不说“不”
3.该说“不”时,不说“不”的坏处
[范文]
don’t be afraid to say “no”
sometimes we have to say “no” to others when they ask us for help. why? one situation may be that we are not capable of doing the things they ask us to do. the other situation may be that we are unwilling to do what they ask us to do, BECause their requests may be unreasonable or even illegal. on both occasions we should say directly to them: “no”.
but the case is not always the same in our daily life. some people are afraid to say “no” when they should say so. on the one hand, they are afraid of losing their faces. on the other hand they don’t want to hurt others, such as their family members, relatives, friends or colleagues.
to say “yes” when you should say “no” will eventually do you some harm. if you say “yes” but fail to help them in the end because of lack of the ability, they may think you are not worthy of trust. if you help them do something bad or illegal, you will be punished for what you have done. so, don’t be afraid to say “no” if necessary.
1999.6真题
directions: for this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: reading selectively or extensively? you should write at least 100 words, and base your composition on the outline (given in chinese) below:
1.有人认为读书要有选择
2.有人认为应当博览群书
3.我的看法
[范文]
reading selectively or extensively?
reading selectively or extensively? what is your choice? perhaps each of us has our choice.
some people think we should read selectively, for there are so many books for us to read. thousands of new books are published every day. how can we cover all these books in our limited time? besides, not all the books are worth reading.
some people, on the contrary, choose to read extensively. they think that reading extensively can broaden their horizons. through reading extensively they can learn something about their ancestors; through reading extensively they can get insight of great men. reading extensively can also enable us to adapt to the fast developing society. because we are living in a knowledgeexploding society, if we don’t read extensively, we can’t get enough information about the modern world, and we can’t keep pace with the society.
in my opinion, we should read both selectively and extensively. by reading extensively, we can enrich our knowledge of aspects. by reading selectively, we can focus on and learn well the academic knowledge we’ll need in our future work.

a letter to a schoolmate
june 23, 2001
dear xiao wang,
i am glad to hear that you will come to see me during the weeklong holiday. it has been three years since we graduated from our university. i miss you very much. i even can’t wait to see you.
i’ve made a plan for this holiday. as this is the first time you come to beijing, i think we’d better have sightseeing around it. we can visit some famous scenic spots and historical sites, such as summer palace, the forbidden city, the great wall, etc. we can do some shopping together. there are many splendid markets and plazas in beijing. the state library is also a good place for us to go. by the way, since lots of people will go traveling in this holiday, it must be crowded on the train. so you should take care of your luggage. bring more clothes with you because beijing is much colder than kunming at this time. and don’t forget to tell me when you will arrive. i’ll pick you up at the airport.
miss you!
yours,
zhang ying
