Certificate Craze On Campus
In recent years, getting a certificate has become a new craze among college students. [1]Just
randomly ask a student on campus what he or she is busy doing, [2]quite possibly, you may get the answer [3]that he or she is preparing for a certificate [2]of some kind. [4]Why does this craze appear?
[4]There are mainly two reasons behind this phenomenon. First, [5]it is the employment pressure that forces college students to get more certificates. With the admission expansion of colleges, a lot more graduates have to face the fierce competition in the job market. How can one make himself more competitive? More certificates at hand, maybe. Second, diploma and certificates are still important standards [6]by which many employers measure a person’s ability. In order to increase the qualifications for a job, the students compel themselves to run from one exam to another.
[7]From my point of view, we should be more rational [8]when it comes to certificates,
[9]since certificates [2]do not necessarily prove one’s ability. Being crazy in getting certifications blindly is [10]nothing but wasting time. To conclude, we should focus on improving our ability
[10]but not getting a certificate of no practical value.
【亮点点评】
[1]祈使句使用恰当。randomly意为“随意地,随机地”。
[2]限定词使用恰当,使文章表达更严谨,增强了说服力。
[3]that引导同位语从句,修饰the idea。
[4]设问句引出原因,容易引起注意。
[5]强调句型,此处是强调主语。
[6]which引导非限制性定语从句,充当介词宾语。
[7]用于引出“我”的观点。
[8]“当谈到或提及?时”。
[9]since引导原因状语从句,表示既定的原因,常译为“既然”。
[10]“只是,仅仅”。“而不是”。

Students’ Pursuit for Famous Brands
Nowadays many college students like to pursue famous brands. From clothes to mobile phones, even study articles like electronic dictionaries and pens, they [1]are inclined to buy famous brands. [2]Moreover, many students from poor families begin to [3]follow this consumption trend as well. This phenomenon has aroused wide attention.
[4]The following reasons can account for college students’ preference for famous brands.
[2]Above all, in many college students’ eyes, a famous brand is a symbol of sophistication and taste. They expect others to admire their high class and good taste. [2]What’s more, in modern society, famous brands to some extent are equal to fashion, [5]which has a great attraction to young college students. [2]Besides, parents’ spoiling their children helps form their bad consumption habit.
[2]As far as I am concerned, [6]it is irrational for college students to pursue famous brands.
[3]After all, most of famous brands are [7]far beyond their consumption ability. [3]Besides, [8]it is not famous brands but a person’s noble character that really makes him high class. [3]Therefore, college students should attach more importance to cultivating a good character [9]rather than pursuing famous brands.

这篇文章在01年和04年都考过类似的题材(介绍家乡),所以虽然对于满心期待考图画作文的亲可能有些措手不及,但是难度毕竟不大,应该不会有太多问题。
你可以把它当成信来写,也可以把它当做一片介绍性的文章来写(把信的格式去掉即可)。
由于每个人的家乡、校园和想带去的地方不一样,所以范文是没有太多参考价值的。只要注意:1.明确提出了你要带他去的地方;2.说出关于这个地方的两三个值得去的点或者你曾有过的经历。
这里就给出你的家乡,校园和中国道理一样。
范文:
As one of the most bewitching and international cities in China, I strongly recommend you, my dearest friends, to pay a visit to my hometown-Beijing. It is the capital of China for several dynasties over a long period. In the meantime, it has now evolved into the political, cultural and educational center. There are many places of interests here in Beijing, among which the Summer Palace is the most interesting attraction.
The Summer Palace is situated in the western outskirts of Beijing, and it is one of the most classical gardens in China, which enjoys a worldwide reputation. The most alluring scenery is Kunming Lake, with an exquisite building in the middle, and it involves three parts which are mainly used as the ancient empress’s living quarter.
I’m sure you can definitely experience the characteristic and traditional culture of China. Hope you could enjoy your trip!

the Central Avenue
My hometown is Harbin. The most interesting place which I would like to take my foreign friends to is
the Central Avenue, if they come to my hometown. The reasons for this can be illustrated as below.
To begin with, as the symbol of Harbin, the Central Avenue not only has a long history, but also a
famous food palace. There are a variety of delicious foods for you to choose. Just take the ice-cream brick
of Ma Dieer as an example. Many of tourists to the Central Avenue sing their praises for the ice-cream brick
of Ma Dieer. In addition, the brilliant historic culture of the Central Avenue can widen people’s vision and
enhance their knowledge, which lays a solid foundation for the understanding of this fabulous city

Harbin.
I believe my foreign friends will enjoy themselves in the Central Avenue. Not only can they appreciate
the wonderful landscape of Harbin but also taste authentic northeast food. No better place can be chosen
than the Central Avenue!
四级翻译参考译文:
Chinese educators have realized the importance of reading for the country. Some educators recommended the establishment of national reading day in 2003 . They stressed that people should read books, especially the classical works. Through reading, people can learn to be grateful, to have the sense of responsibility and to work with others better, and the purpose of education is to cultivate these qualities. Reading is very important for primary and middle school students, if they do not foster interest in reading in this key period. It is very difficult to develop the habit of reading later.
Chinese educators have already realized the significance of reading for a nation. Some workers suggested that we have a national reading day in 2003. They emphasized that people should read good books especially the classic ones. Through reading, people can learn better how to be grateful, responsible and cooperative. The goal of education is to cultivate these basic personalities. Reading is especially important for middle and primary school students. Suppose they don't nurture the interest of reading at that key moment, it will be harder to develop a habit to read books.

人打开电灯、开冰箱和拨电话。然而,对于大多数人来说,狗只是家里老人和孩子们的宠物和朋友。

When I was a child, I once went camping with my family in the summer. We decided to make a
barbecue in the valley. So we collected some tree sticks to make a fire. My father asked me if I could try to make a fire. I was glad to take the job. Then I tried to set fire to the wood with a match, but produced only smoke. Then my father said, "That's not the right way. I'll show you how to do it. First use the small pieces of wood because they catch fire easily. Then put the larger ones on top of them."My father helped me make a big fire.

6 A Joke— “I stand corrected”
I have this friend who always seemed to lean slightly to the left all the time. It used to bother me, so I
suggested he see a doctor, and have his legs checked out. For years, he refused and told me I was crazy, but last week, he finally went. Sure enough, the doctor discovered his left leg was a quarter inch shorter than his right. A quick bit of surgery later, he was cured, and both legs are exactly the same length now, and he no longer leans. “So,”I said, "You didn't believe me when I told you a doctor could fix your leg. He just looked at me and said, "I stand corrected.

检查一下他的腿。几年来,他总是不听我的建议,还说我不正常,但是上星期,他终于去看了医生。果真,医生发现他的左腿比右腿短四分之一英寸。一个很快的小手术后,他康复了,现在他的两条腿完全一样长了,他也不再倾斜了。“你看,”我说,“那时我告诉你医生可以治好你的腿时你还不相信我呢。”他看着我说:“我认错了。”
7 Making a Kite
One day, Paula and Richard decided to make a kite. First they went out and found two straight sticks
of the same length. They brought them back home and tied them with a piece of string into the shape of a cross. Then they took some string and used it to tie the four ends of the sticks together. Then, they spread some brightly coloured paper over the frame and glued it around the string. They stuck a tail made of paper to one of the corners, and tied a
long string to the centre of the kite. On the next windy day, they took the kite to a hill near their house and flew it.

8 Animals in Danger
Some of the animals and birds in the rainforest, such as monkeys and
woodpeckers, live in the treetops. They are always swinging and flying from one
tree to another looking for food among the leaves and branches. They even sleep
in the treetops so they do not have to come down to the ground.
Have you heard that such animals and birds in the rainforests are in danger?
Because people are cutting down so many trees in the forests, the animals are
losing their homes. Do you know the reasons for it? Yes, people want wood, paper
and land. As a result many animals and plants are dying. Some forests are so
badly damaged that they become deserts.

一些雨林中的动物和鸟类生活在树顶上,例如猴子和啄木鸟。它们总是从一棵树荡到或飞到另
一棵树上,在树叶和树枝间寻找食物。它们甚至在树顶睡觉,所以它们不用到地面上来。
你知道吗?雨林中的这些动物正处于危险中。因为人们砍伐了森林中的许多树,动物们失去了
家园。你知道人们砍树的原因吗?是的,人们需要木材、纸和土地。所以,许多动物和植物正在消亡。一些森林遭到了严重的破坏,变成了沙漠。
9 English in the World
Some people say that the English language no longer belongs to the English,
and it belongs to the world. It is estimated that the number of people who use
English exceeds 750 million. Among these, about 350 million are native
speakers, while the rest use it as an official language. If we add to this
number the people who have acquired the language to some extent, the total is
close to one billion.
English plays an increasingly important role in the world as a medium for
conducting international business and diplomacy, as well as in science and
medicine, the Internet, air and sea communications, international sports
events, radio and TV programs, pop songs and movies.

英语,作为进行国际业务和外交的工具,在世界上起着越来越重要的作用。它还在科学、医药、
互联网、空中及海洋通信、国际体育赛事、电台电视节目、流行歌曲及电影中发挥着越来越重要的作用。
10 A Friend
When you read an English book, you often come across new words. You might try
to guess what the words mean from the words you know, but when you cannot
guess the meanings of new words at all, what should you do?
You have a good friend then. From him you can learn what a word means, how to
pronounce a word, how to use a word, and so on. This friend can always be with
you, and you can always ask him to help you. Do you know who this friend is?
It is a dictionary. You can learn some important things about words from it,
so you must know how to use it.
come across 碰到 guess 猜测
朋 友
当你读英语书时,你经常会碰到新单词。你可能试着从你知道的词中猜这些词的意思,但是当
你无法猜出这些词的意思时,你该怎么办呢?

Saving the Rainforests for Future Generations
拯救热带雨林,造福子孙万代
Rainforests are being cut and burned from Brazil to Indonesia at such a rate that they could well disappear from the earth's surface before the year 2050. They are being cleared for valuable timber and other resources to speed up the economic growth of the nations in which they are located. The most recent figures show that the area of rainforest destroyed last year alone was bigger than the size of Great Britain and Ireland. 从巴西到印尼,热带雨林正在被砍伐,正在被烧毁,其速度非常之快,以致于到不了2050年,热带雨林就会被砍光烧光而从地球表面上彻底消失。为了获取贵重木材和其他资源,以加速处于热带雨林国家的经济发展,热带雨林正在逐渐被
砍伐得干干净净一棵树都不剩了。最近的统计数字表明,仅去年一年被吸掉的热带雨林的面积比英国和爱尔兰两国的面积加起来还大。
If the present rate of deforestation is allowed to continue, the consequences for the earth will be great. We shall see
a massive upsetting of ecosystems, very large increases in soil erosion, increases in flooding and in drought, changes in rainfall patterns and regional, quite possibly global, changes in climate. We shall also probably lose many rare plant and animal species.
如果听任现在的热带雨林被毁掉的百分比继续发展下去,给整个地球所带来的后果将是十分严重的。我们将会看到(1)各种生态系统的平衡均遭到大规模的破坏;(2)水土流失现象大规模地增加了;(3)水灾和旱灾大规模增加了;(4)降雨的方式改变了;(5)地区性的气候改变,甚至完全可能导致全球性气候的改变。我们也许会永远失去很多种珍稀的植物和动物。
According to many scientists, the burning of rainforests is also directly contributing to the so-called greenhouse effect. This effect, they say, is raising average temperatures and sea levels as the polar ice caps recede.
根据许多科学家报告,烧毁了热带雨林也直接导致了所谓的温室效应。科学家们都说,这种温室效应正在使全球平均气温升高,正在使南极和北极地区的冰盖融化,随之而来的也正在使全球海洋的水平面上升。
The rainforest is essential in other areas also. It is a medicine chest of unlimited potential. The US National Cancer Institute has identified
2,000 rainforest plants which could be beneficial in fighting cancer. In today's pharmaceutical market, 15 of the 125 drugs derived from plants were discovered in the rainforest.
从其他方面来看,热带雨林对人类也是必不可缺的。热带雨林是一个有着无限潜在能力的取之不尽用之不竭的医药资源的万宝库。美国国家癌症研究院已经证实了有2000种热带雨林中的植物对预防和治疗癌症有奇效。在今天的药品市场上,在125种单味药中,就有15种是从热带雨林中发现的植物中提取出来的。
Plant species are not the only forms of life threatened with extinction in the rainforest. Rare birds and animals that cannot be found anywhere else in the world have been disappearing at the rate of one a year since the turn of the century.
各种植物在热带雨林中并不是受到灭种威胁的唯一的生物。世界上除了热带雨林以外,在其他任何地方都找不到的珍稀鸟类和珍稀动物,在这世纪交替的时候正在以每年消失一种的速度逐渐灭绝。
In the face of all these facts, it seems senseless for countries to continue destroying their rainforests. However, the problem is not so simple. The countries in which the rainforests are located are all quite poor and overpopulated. One of them, Brazil, has a population of 140 million, about half of whom are living in absolute poverty. The
governments in these countries are usually also too weak to stop large companies and powerful individuals from destroying the rainforests. They have no money, so when the poor whom they cannot feed find work cutting
down trees or burning forestland, the governments often have no choice but to turn a blind eye. Moreover, for many of these countries, the valuable timber and other resources found in the rainforests are also a very important source of foreign exchange, which they badly need to pay off their foreign debts and purchase foreign equipment and other goods. 面对这一切事实,这些国家还在继续毁灭他们的热带雨林,这令人觉得他们简直太麻木不仁了。但是,这个问题并不是很简单的。地处于热带雨林的那些国家都相当贫穷而且人口都相当过剩。热带雨林国家之一,巴西,人口有一亿四千万人。其中约有半数人生活在绝对贫困当中。这些国家的政府通常也都是十分软弱的,以致不能制止一些大公司或有权有势的人毁坏热带雨林的行为。那些国家的政府都没有钱,所以当政府养活不起的那些穷人,找到了砍树或在森林里烧树开荒的工作时,政府别无选择,只好睁一只眼闭一只眼。况且,对这些国家中的有些国家来说,热带雨林中的珍贵木材和其他资源也是他们所急需换取外汇的很重要的资源,以便用来偿还外债和用来购买外国的设备和其他物资。
The only solution to the problem, then, seems to be for the richer countries of the world to help the countries where the rainforests are located. One way they could help would be by cancelling the international debts that countries like Brazil owe, while also working together with these countries to solve their other economic problems. At the same time, they could support programmes to teach the local people to regard the rainforests as gardens to be harvested, and not merely as places where
the only way for them to make a living is by senselessly cutting down trees and burning.
那么,令人觉得这个问题唯一的解决办法似乎就是世界上较富裕国家应该援助地处于热带雨林的那些国家。援助的方法之一就是放弃或取消像巴西这类国家所欠他们的国际债务,同时还要同这些国家一起协作去解决他们的一些经济问题。与此同时,他们还应该举办各种培训班,教会当在居民把热带雨林办成获得大丰收的花园、果园、菜园、动植物园,而不要只把热带雨林看成是只能用极愚昧无知的砍树烧树的办法来作为谋生的唯一手段的地方。
Such programmes could teach the local people how to select trees worth exporting and to cut only those trees down while leaving the rest, so that the basic make-up of the forest would not be disturbed. This would also mean that the environment needed for the survival of the many rare species of animals and plants, as well as of the Indian tribes that live in the rainforest, could be preserved. The local people could also be taught to earn more money by cutting the selected trees and making them into furniture on the spot. In addition, they could learn how to harvest other valuable natural materials that are now being wasted, and sell them overseas to earn foreign exchange for their countries.
这类培训班或者还可以教会当地居民如何精选出值得出口的树木,只把有出口价值的树木砍掉,而把其余的树都保留下来,以便使森林中基本的生态平衡不被破坏。这样做,也将意味着会把许多珍稀植物和动物赖以生存所必须的环境以及生活在热带雨林中的印地安人的各个部落所赖以自下而上的环境保存下来。也可以
