  历年

  2011.1 美西

  Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below. (2011.1)

  People generally put more trust in what they have learned for themselves than in what they learn from others. Few people, however, are really motivated to learn anything on their own. They are much more apt to learn when others are willing to teach them. Even though learning from others means occasionally learning things that are not useful or important, people are still better off when they learn from others.

  Assignment: Is it better for people to learn from others than to learn on their own? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.

  1. 题目翻译:

  人们大都更信任自己学到的东西,而不是从别人那里学到的东西。然而,只有极少数人有动力自己学习。有别人教他们的时候他们会更有动力学习。即使从别人那里学习意味着有时学到无用或不重要的东西,人们还是从别人那里学的更好。

  题目:人们从他人那里学习比自己学习更好吗?

  2. 审题关键词:others, own, learn

  3. 论证分析-各段核心提纲:

  2011.5 美西

  Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below. (2011.5)

  People today seem to spend most of their free time being passively entertained: they just sit on the couch and watch movies or television or sporting events. This is mainly because they use up all their energy at work or at school. If they had more time and energy to devote to activities outside of work or school, you can be sure they would enjoy more creative and active pursuits during their free time.

  Assignment: If people worked less, would they be more creative and active during their free time? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.

  1. 题目翻译:

  今天,人们把大部分的休闲时间花在被动的娱乐上:他们就坐在沙发上看电影、电视节目或者体育节目。这大部分是英文他们把自己的精力都用在上班和上学上了。他们如果有更多时间和精力投入在上班和上学之外的话,他们会在自己的空闲时间做更加有创意的活动。

  题目:如果人们工作少些,他们会在空闲时间更有创意、更活跃吗?

  2. 审题关键词:work less, creative, active

  3. 论证分析-各段核心提纲:

  正:It is because people are too tired to do what they enjoy that they turn to passive entertainment.

  反:People are inclined to be lazy during the free time, even they have more time every day.

  补:It is important to have the self discipline to fight against laziness.

  2011.10 美西

  Think carefully about the issue presented in the following excerpt and the assignment below. (2011.10)

  We are often encouraged to stop worrying about making mistakes and advised not to dwell on those we have already made. But without analyzing mistakes—decisions and actions that made a project fail, for instance—how can anyone be successful? Besides, there are some well-known mistakes others have made that seem worth studying carefully. Perhaps these mistakes could have been prevented if those responsible had been more concerned about making mistakes in the first place.

  Assignment: Do people have to pay attention to mistakes in order to make progress? Plan and write an essay in which you develop your point of view on this issue. Support your position with reasoning and examples taken from your reading, studies, experience, or observations.

  1. 题目翻译:

  总有人鼓励我们,不要害怕犯错,也不要纠结于已经犯过的错误。然而如果我们不分析错误,比如让项目失败的决定或行动,我们如何成功?而且,其他人犯过的著名的错误也值得我们仔细研究。也许如果犯错的人能够在一开始就注意不要犯错,这些错误就可以避免。

  题目:人们想要取得进步,就应当重视错误吗?

  2. 审题关键词:mistakes, progress

  3. 论证分析-各段核心提纲:

  正:Less mistakes can save us much time and energy for the best.

  反:There is no way to avoid making mistakes. Thus, if we pay too much attention to mistakes, it is impossible to take actions.

  补:We should not be afraid of making mistakes.
