3． 你的看法
Living alone or Living with Roommates
Nowadays， there has appeared a heated discussion among the college students as to whether they should live alone outside the campus or live together with other roommates in the students’dormitory. Opinions are divided over the matter.
Those who are in favor of living alone maintain that it is very convenient to live by themselves. They can enjoy absolute freedom in a room of their own. They can have their own timetable without disturbing others. They are also free to equip their room with a personal computer so that they can have easy access to the Internet.
But others argue that living with roommates has attractions of its own. With several students sharing the same room， each person’s experiences can be greatly enriched. They can learn a lot from talking to one another. By learning to tolerate the differences between individuals， they can become more mature.
As far as I’m concerned， I prefer to live with roommates because I love the feeling of belonging. Besides， it is a lot cheaper to live in a dorm than to rent an apartment outside the campus.

Advertisement
Advertisements are forcing their way into people’s lives. People refer to advertisements in their daily lives because they are consumers. The advertisers are usually manufacturers， retailers and salesmen. Their merchandise needs to be advertised to bring it to the attention to the customers. Thus nearly every product is advertised in some way. To a large extent， good advertising leads to success while bad advertising can mean failure.
There are many ways to advertise and ‘ads’ come in different forms. Newspapers carry advertisements. Some products are publicized on TV and radio which bring them into notice of a wide audience. Billboards also carry advertising. Advertising is a big industry now and many agencies have been set up to furnish a variety of forms.。
However， advertising is not always truthful. A product is often misrepresented. The advertiser exaggerates the benefits of the merchandise he wants to sell. Thus， he misrepresents the truth. The consumer falls victim to such advertising. Millions of people have bought advertised products and have been dissatisfied with them。

Directions： For this part， you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic： A Letter to the President of the University about Improving the Sports Facilities on Campus. You should write no more than 120 words， and base your composition on the outline given below in Chinese：
假设你是李明，请你写一封信给校长，建议改善本校体育设施状况，内容应涉及体育设施对大学生的重要性，对目前学校体育设施的状况可以表扬，可以提出批评建议，也可以兼而有之。
A Letter to the President of the University
Dear Mr. President，
I am writing this letter to you to express my concern about the sports facilities on campus. I have noticed that our university has very limited resources in terms of opportunities to participate in sports， especially given that the number of students on campus is increasing every year.
As we both know， sports are very important for the sound growth of young people. If they have access to quality sports facilities， young people are able to choose a healthier lifestyle， to boost self-esteem and confidence， and to build a positive outlook and sense of achievement.
My proposal is to build a new sports area. It should be designed with soccer players， basketball players， and ping-pong players in mind. It should have a different section for each activity and be available to students all year round. I believe such facilities will meet our sporting needs.
Thank you for your reading this letter.
Yours faithfully，
Li Ming

Directions： For this part， you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Blog. You should write at least 120 words based on the chart and outline given below：
下图是2007年1-10月中国博客服务人均月度有效浏览时间及增长率，描述变化，说明原因。
Blog
This histogram shows the number of people using blog services from January to October in 2007. From it we can see that the number of users increased monthly from January to August， except February. After two peak months， July and August， the number dropped slightly in September， while in October it picked up again.
Possible reasons for these changes are first， in February Chinese people celebrated the most important festival——Chinese New Year. This means more people spent more time with their families and friends， and therefore they didn’t have as much time for surfing online. Secondly， college students are the main users of blog services. While in July and August，they had summer holidays， which enabled them to have more spare time reading and writing blogs. Thirdly， with improvements of blog services and the influence of some “star bloggers”， most of whom are celebrities， blogs are becoming an important way for people to express themselves and communicate with others. So more and more people are starting to use these services， which help explain the overall increase shown here.
点评：这是一篇图表题。 可以看出，整体呈增长趋势。但是，二月和九月有所下降。所以，分析的时候要照顾各个方面。

假期即将到来，你（付萍）打算做一次为期三周的旅行，希望找个外国朋友作为游伴（Travel-mate）。拟一个寻游伴的启示，交代清楚日程安排、费用分担情况、对对方的要求，说明对方和你一起出游的好处。
Travel-mate Wanted
I’m a 19-year-old female sophomore named Fu Ping. I hereby earnestly invite a foreign young lady-college student preferred-to make a three - week touring trip with me.
My plan is to set off next weekend， when the summer vacation officially begins. The first stop is Kunming， the world-renowned city for its beauty and mild temperature. We’ll get there by train and stay there for 2 days， and then we’ll head for Jinggangshan， a former revolutionary base as well as a natural beauty spot. After a 3-day visit there ， we will take a long-distance coach to a nearby port city by the Yangtze River and board a downstream ship to Shanghai， so that we can enjoy the great scenery alongside the third longest river in the world. As everybody knows， Shanghai is the busiest and fastest developing city in China. I’d like to have a look at its prosperity， so the stay there will be about half a week. And a famous Chinese saying goes， “Just as there is Paradise in heaven， there are Suzhou and Hangzhou on Earth ”， so a 4-day visit to these two cities near Shanghai is must. All together， our trip will last about three weeks.
I only expect that my travel-mate could split the expenses with me and talk with me in beautiful English， and I would be an excellent guide for her since I major in tourist guiding.
Those interested please contact me either through email （fuping@） or phone call （52222221） 。

Away from Net-bar Campaign
It has been reported that a middle school in Xuzhou City has recently launched a campaign named “Away from Net-bar”。 More than a thousand students have signed for their solemn promise that they will not spend a single minute in the net-bars. With the nearing of the summer vacation， this campaign is especially meaningful for the healthy development of the minors.
The internet has brought people great convenience in getting information， entertainment and contact with others， and it has also benefited some businessmen， especially the owner of net-bars. While it is true that most net-bars are running legally， it is also true that some are offering unhealthy programs that involve violence and sex content. Since most middle school students are prone to be influenced and they can hardly tell which bars are doing well and which ones are not， it is only advisable that they stay away from all. Besides ， staying away from net-bars also does good to students’ physical health. By passively sitting too long in front of the computer screen， both their eyesight and physique suffer.
Obviously ， the Away from Net-bars Campaign is an activity that is worth advocating and it merits other schools’ reference

Online Education
1.目前网络教育形成热潮
2.我认为这股热潮的的原因是……
3.我对网络教育的评价
Being online is no longer something strange in our life. To some degree， it has become part of our daily life. We can do a lot of things online， such as searching for information and communicating with friends far and near. But recently another helpful online activity has become very “in”. That is online education.
Why could online education be so popular within such a short period of time？ Among other reasons， the quick development of the internet should be an essential one， which makes all our dreams of attending class in the distance possible. Another underlying reason is the quick development of both society and technology. Today ，modern science and technology is developing with lightening speed. To catch up with this development we all feel an urgent and strong desire to study. However ， due to the great pace of modern society ， many people are too busy to study full time at school. Online education just comes to their aid.
Personally ， I appreciate this new form of education. It’s indeed a helpful complement to the traditional educational means. It can provide different learners with more flexible and versatile ways of learning. Most of all ，with online education， we can sick to our jobs and at the same time study and absorb the latest knowledge.

Air Pollution
根据所给的题目和下面的关键词，写一篇120个词左右的短文：
health ， surrounded by ， smog ， anything but ， gases ， impurities ， absorb ， poisonous ， try hard ， blacked out
We all know that clean air is important to good health. Wherever you go and whatever you do， you are always surrounded by a sea of gases that we call air. If there are impurities in the air， they may be absorbed by our bodies and make us ill. We need clean air， but unfortunately ， air pollution is globally present ， especially in cities.
Many large cities are anything but pollution-free. Our cities have many factories， which we need to make food， clothing and other things. Every year these factories pour millions upon millions of tons of smog into air. Power plants and houses that burn coal add greatly to air pollution. Besides ， there are more cars in cities now. Once out on the streets， they will take in fresh air and replace it with poisonous gases.
Our country is trying hard to prevent and control air pollution. As long as every citizen also realizes its importance and makes join efforts， the day will come soon when people will take in only clean air. Then ， the sunlight will no longer be blackened out by smoke and soot.

Turn off Your Mobile Phone

But，have you noticed sometimes the mobile phone also brings embarrassment to us？ It’s not rare to see someone pressing the mobile phone to his ear and shouting 1oud1y in public as if there were no one else present. And I’m sure each one has had such an experience that the mobi1e phone ring continuous1y on a formal occasion. Perhaps these People have many 1ife-and-death reasons to keep the phone working at all times， but it interrupts people around them who have to hear what they don’t care when they want to concentrate on what they’re doing.
So if you are one of them， please shut off your cell phone in public， especially on a quiet and serious occasion. It’s a respect for both others and yourself.

Directions： For this part， you are allowed 30 minutes to write a letter. Suppose you are Jill. Write a letter to your friend Li Fang. You should write at least 120 words according to the situation given below in Chinese：
假设你的好朋友李芳是大学四年级学生，正在考虑是考研究生继续深造还是大学毕业后就踏上工作岗位。请给她写封信表明你的态度。
Dear Fang，
I understand that you are in a dilemma. Although so many graduates are eager to set feet on their work-life road， there are still some who prefer to start their new life after gaining another degree to make better preparation for entering society. In my opinion， the latter are more admirable. You are good at all your course these years， so if you do like to spend another two or three years on campus， you should stick to it. In today’s society， the achievement and status you can get and the devotion you can make are no doubt in proportion to your educational background and degrees， coupled with the efforts you put in them. If you want to stride to your destinations more smoothly and easily， why not head for the further study courageously？
Whichever you choose， I firmly believe your industry will ensure your success. After all， it is you who have the final say on the final choice.
Best wishes，
Yours sincerely
