11、The humorous saying, “Quitting smoking is the easiest thing in the world.

28、一社会现象的优缺点，然后给出自己的见解和看法，是四级考试写作中很常见的作文形式。例Is a Test of Spoken English Necessary?1. 很多人认为有必要举行英语口语考试，理由是。2. 也有人持不用的意见。3. 我的看法和打算 When it comes to the test of spoken English, peoples opinions differ. Many people believe that it is necessary to adopt such a test. For one thing, fluent speaking ability i

29、s badly needed in todays society that is experiencing reform and opening-up. For another, in a more competitive society such as ours today, fluent spoken English means more advantage you have to beat your rival in competing for a position with much appeal to both of you. Some people, however, take a

30、 different attitude. They regard the test as being unnecessary. In their views, fluent spoken English does not necessarily mean a better job; sometimes, opportunity plays a more important role. Furthermore, many people do not use spoken English at all in their work. As far as I am concerned, I am re

31、ally in favor of the test. On the one hand, it can encourage college students to try every means to improve their spoken English. On the other hand, college students will benefit endlessly in their future career if they can speak fluent English. So I decide to make use of every opportunity to practi

32、ce my spoken English, and surely it will do me much good.Is a Test of Spoken English Necessary? （1） There is no consensus of opinion among people as to _.

35、结论。图表作文是一种信息的转换。也就是说，写图表作文时，首先要以题目中的要求为指导，审慎读图，准确把握图表传达的信息，将其扩展成文。图表作文往往是以说明为主，图表中的数据是为了说明某个问题而提供的，只要问题能阐释清楚，就不必面面俱到地把所有数据都在文章中引用出来。考生要切忌毫无目的地引用图表中的数据。引用数据过多的同学往往得分很低。 图表作文的段落设计1. 开头段-说明该图表反映的概况，选择能充分说明主题的典型数据进行概述；2. 中间段-对数据进行仔细地分析比较，归纳出增减速率，找出产生变化的原因；3. 结尾段-写出看完图表后的想法或评论，得出自己的结论。 图表分析型上图所示为1990年、19

It is self-evident that it increases sharply to twenty hours in the yea

37、r of 2000. Three possible reasons contribute to this phenomenon. One reason is that most college students now can afford a personal computer due to the sharp decline in its price. Another reason is that they find the computer a wonderful thing to have fun with. For instance, they can chat through QQ

38、 or playing games online. Whats more, from Internet, they can learn things much more quickly than simply from reading books so that they can secure a good job in the future. As a result, all these lead to much more time spent on using computers. However, in my opinion, there are some complaints from

39、 both teachers and students. For one thing, students complain about the less availability of computers and slow speed of the network. For another, some teachers worry that the much more time spent playing computer games or surfing online will lead students to ignore their studies and even do cheatin

40、g instead of doing research by their own.To sum up, in spite of problems concerning the use of computer, computer is still of more merits than defects. 应用文类型四级考试中的应用文一般会给出一个特定的情景，要求考生根据该情景写一封短信、倡议书或演说词等。应用文涉及的内容多种多样，但大部分都与日常生活比较贴近, 主要包括：投诉信、求职信、求学信、拒绝信、道歉信、感谢信、祝贺信、邀请信、求职信、演说辞、倡议书、海报、景点介绍和日程安排等。从历年真题

41、来看，应用文的考查以信函为主，但近几年也常涉及其他类型，如倡议书、景点介绍等。（1） I would like to suggest that/ I am writing with my suggestion/ proposal about/ I am writing to express my views concerning我想建议。/ 我写信来想就一事提出我的建议。/ 我写信来表达我关于的看法。(2) You have asked me for my advice with regard to and I will try to make some conducive suggestio
