1、How People Spent Their HolidaysAs can be seen from the table, the past decade have witnessed dramatic changes in the way people spent their holiday between 1990 and 2000.In 1990, 63 of people spent their holidays at home, while the figure dropped considerably to 24% in 2000. It is obvious from the t
2、able that people tended to be more and more mobile, and they wanted to get entertainment in the outside world。What contributed to these changes? I think the reasons are as follows. To start with, with the rapid development of economy, people earn by far more money than they used to. Thus, people are
3、 able to afford traveling expenses. Secondly, people think it important to get well-informed about the outside world in this new era when everything is on the move。 Traveling, of course, is a sure way to achieve this goal。 Whats more, in this competitive society, people are usually under great stres
4、s。 However, it is not difficult to find traveling an effective way to relieve peoples stress and get relaxation. Last but not least, by traveling outside, people are close to nature, which is not only beneficial to both their health and peace of mind。In conclusion, people prefer to go traveling rath
5、er than stay at home during holidays for a combination of reasons. Moreover, it seems that this trend will last in the foreseeable future。人口增长对野生动物的影响(99年真题) 2。图画/图表描述段 From these graphs, we can draw a conclusion that, with the growth of human population, the number of species has decreased rapidly

10、would agree that cigarette smoking has caused serious problems. But the tobacco companies insist that they contribute greatly to the world economy by paying taxes to the government and employing hundreds of workers。4.利弊说明段Personally, I believe that cigarette production and consumption threatens to d
11、o more harm than good。 Firstly, smoking is responsible for many fatal diseases such as lung cancer, heart diseases and so on. According to the survey, tobacco consumers account for about 20 of the world population, and among them, three million people die from smoking-related diseases every year. Th
12、e fact that the output of tobacco production is reduced from 143.64 billion pounds in 1994 to 142 billion pounds in 1995 also suggests that people have come to realize the negative effects of smoking。 Secondly, tobacco consumption is extremely wasteful of money。 As is indicated in the pictures, 200
13、billion US dollars is lost due to smoking each year. Obviously, the total loss of money around the globe substantially exceeds the gain in the industry。8.归纳结论段In conclusion, as the economic development aims at making our life better, we cannot sacrifice our health for short-term financial benefits.
14、If we have to spend more and more money providing medical services for those who suffer from smoking-related illnesses, the notion of promoting economy via tobacco production is not justifiable. It is high time that we fought for the total tobacco ban。日用花销统计Statistics in Peoples Daily Expenses in Xi

Development in economy is an essential one in the five years。 The increased inco
17、me resulting from economic growth plays an important part in the less expense on food。 Hence, a small percentage of total income is enough to cover food expense. Another one is the changes in life style. When food presents no worry to the average, people begin to focus more of interest on handsome a

As a result of such a shift, spending on clothing and recreation increased year after year。9。趋势预测段From the analyses made above, we may come to the conclusion that peoples living standards in Xi an have been constantly improved between 1995 and 1999. With the further

26、机会。这又缓解了北京的下岗工人问题。最后,由于北京和沿海开放城市一样享有许多优惠政策,所以高科技产业在首都迅速发展.至于吸引外资的措施,我认为有如下几点。一方面,我们应该专门努力来改善投资环境。另一方面,我们应该抓住机遇把目前的外资企业管理好。Since China opened its door to the outside world in 1979, Beijing has made remarkable results in attracting foreign business to invest in joint ventures。 According to the pie cha
27、rt, the investors in different enterprises come from 26 countries and regions。 Hong Kong investment ranks first, accounting for 44 per cent of the total。 Japans investment makes up 19。2 per cent, putting it in second spot。 Third is the United States at 16 per cent. It is generally believed that Beij
28、ing benefits a lot from the outside investment。 In the first place, a large number of joint ventures have been set up, which contributes greatly to the development of Capital Economy. Secondly, the foreigninvested enterprises offer a lot of jobs to the residents in Beijing。 This in turn relieves the
29、 problem of laid-off workers in the city。 Finally, the high-tech enterprises in the capital will grow rapidly as Beijing enjoys the same preferential policies as coastal cities open to the outside world.As far as the measures to attract outside investment are concerned, I think they are as follows.
30、On the one hand, we should make special efforts to improve the investment environment。 On the other hand, we should take advantage of this opportunity to run the present foreigninvested enterprises efficiently.Directions: In this part, you are to write an essay of about 200 words within 40 minutes.
31、Your essay must meet the requirements below。 1. Show your understanding of the meaning of the picture below 2. State the harmful effects of fake and inferior products 3. Suggest ways to fight against fake and inferior products 正如所给的图画所描绘的,我国社会主义市场经济正在迅速发展,就像一辆高速行驶的卡车.但是公众惊讶地发现,越来越多的假冒伪劣产品严重地阻碍了我国市场经
32、济的发展。消费者必须经常谨慎地去购买他们所需的货物或服务,否则他们会落入制假人所设的陷阱。毫无疑问,假冒伪劣产品极其有害。首先,它们危害人民的健康,引发了许多伤害事故。例如,伪劣药品不仅使病人恶化,而且往往会威胁病人的生命,更糟的是,导致病人的死亡.其次,假冒伪劣产品通常廉价出售。在许多情况下,它们有干扰了我国正常的经济秩序,影响了许多高质量产品的销路.这在很大程度上阻碍了我国社会主义市场经济的健康发展,并损害了我们国家的利益。因此,我们可以说,假冒伪劣产品是我们健康经济中的一颗“毒瘤”,对此必须尽快清除。依我看,必须采取若干措施来与假冒伪劣产品斗争。一方面,制假者必须依法严惩。另一方面,由于
33、市场的日益复杂化消费者常会遇到欺诈行为。虽然有法律保护消费者,但是没有足够数量的执法者来处理市场的全部流弊。所以,消费者应该学会辨别真假.只有这样,消费者才能维护他们的合法权益As the picture given depicts, the socialist market-oriented economy in our country is developing rapidly, just like a truck running at a high speed。 But the general public is surprised to find that there are more
34、 and more fake and inferior products seriously hampering the expansion of our marker economy. Consumers have to be very careful in purchasing goods and services they need; otherwise they will fall into the traps set by the illegal manufacturers who make fake and inferior products。There is no doubt t
35、hat fake and inferior products are extremely harmful。 In the first place, they endanger peoples health, giving rise to a lot of injury accidents. For instance, inferior-quality medicines not only aggravate a patients condition, but also tend to threaten his life and, whats worse, to result in his de
36、ath。 Secondly, fake and inferior products are usually sold on the cheap。 In many cases they interfere with the normal economic order in our country, affecting the market of many high-quality goods。 This in a great degree, hinders the development of our socialist market economy and harms the interest
37、s of our state。 Therefore, we can say that fake and inferior products are a dangerous “tumor” in our healthy economy, which must be cut away as soon possible。In my opinion, several strong measures should be adopted to fight against fake and inferior products. On the one hand, those who make them mus
38、t be severely punished by the law. On the other hand, due to the growing complexity of the market, consumers are often faced with deceptive practices. Although there are laws designed to protect consumers, there is not a sufficient number of law enforcers to cover all the abuses of the marketplace。
39、Hence, consumers should learn to discern between true and false。 Only in this way can they defend their own legal rights and interests.Directions:A. Study the following graph carefully and write an essay of about 200 words within 40 minutes B. Your essay must be written neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2.C。 Y
40、our essay should meet the requirements below: 1。 describe the increase in the farmers average personal income 2。 give possible reasons for the increase 3。 predict future prospect 根据表中所给的数字,自1970年至1990年中国农民的个人收入稳步增长。70年代中期农民的收入还是相当低的。其个人收入约为180元。但是,1980年平均个人收入增加将近50,达到270元.如表中所示,他们的收入在1985年翻了一翻,总计为54
41、0元。此后收入的增加呈持续的趋势.总之,在这20年中,农民收入迅速增加。 中国农民收入增加的主要原因有两点。首先,我国政府一直在贯彻执行改革开放政策。大量的乡镇企业已在农村建立起来了.这就大大促进了农村经济的发展。其次,中国的农业政策进行了巨大的改革,党的政策调动了农民的积极性。因此,农业产量不断上升。所有这一切使农民的收入不断增加。 我认为,随着一系列新的农业政策的贯彻执行,中国的农业将得到更为迅速的发展。毫无疑问,农民的生活水平将大幅度提高。 According to the figures given by the graph, the Chinese farmers personal
42、income rose steadily from 1970 to 1990。 In the middle of 1970s their income was rather low。 Their annual personal income was about 180 yuan. But in 1980 the average personal income increased approximately 50%, reaching 270 yuan。 As is shown by the graph, in 1985 their income doubled, amounting to 54
43、0 yuan. After that there was a consistent tendency for income to grow. In a word, during the period of 20 years the farmers income had gone up rapidly。 There were two reasons for the increase in the farmers income in China. Firstly, the Chinese government had been carrying out a reform and opening p
44、olicy。 A large number of countyrun enterprises had been set up in the rural areas. Secondly, a significant reform of agricultural policy had been carried out in China. The Partys policy had brought farmers initiative into full play。 As a result, the agricultural output had been on the rise all the t
45、ime. All these factors resulted in the steady growth of farmers income. I believe that with a series of agricultural policies being carried out, there will be even more rapid development in Chinas agriculture。 There is no doubt that the farmers living standard will be improved to a great extent. (22
46、0 words)Outline:1。 Interpret the graph above。 2。 Give possible reasons for the change in the number of film-goers and TVwatchers. 3. Predict future prospect. 最近对某市看电影者和看电视者的一次调查分析了二者人数的变化。曲线图表明,1992年到2002年期间看电影的人数以急趋下降,2002年总计为2万人.而看电视的人数在过去的10年中持续上升,2002年达到15万。最后,有趣的是,1998年电影观众和电视观众数量相等。我想,这种变化可能有两
47、点原因。首先,电视不仅是一种方便的消遣形式,而且相对来说价钱便宜。看电视不必安排交通工具。人们也不须支付电影院昂贵的座位费。第二,电视可以使人及时了解当前大事和科技的最新发展.因此,许多人宁愿呆在家里看电视,而不愿出去看电影,因为看电影既费时又费钱。依我看,到现在仍有许多人爱看电影。他们声称,电影是一种令人心旷神怡的艺术形式。舒服地坐在电影院里,人们可以欣赏到最新的影片,而这些影片通常要过很长时间才会在电视上播放。因此,我认为电影观众的人数将来会增加。A recent survey analyzed the change in number of filmgoers and TV watche
48、rs in X city. As is shown by the graph, there has been a sharp decline in the number of film-goers during the period from 1992 to 2002, adding up to 20,000 in 2002. On the other hand, the number of TV watchers has steadily increase in the last decade, reaching 150,000 in 2002. Finally, it is interesting to note that there were as many film-goers as TV watchers in year 1998. There might be two reason, I think, for the change. Firstly, TV is not only a convenient source of entertainment, but a comparatively cheap one.
