　　1999.1真題

　　Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic. Don’t Be Afraid to Say“No”. You should write at least 100 words and you should base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese) below:

　　1.別人請求幫助時,在什么情況下我們會說“不”

　　2.為什么有些人在該說“不”的時候不說“不”

　　3.該說“不”時,不說“不”的壞處

　　[范文]

　　Don’t Be Afraid to Say “No”

　　Sometimes we have to say “No” to others when they ask us for help. Why? One situation may be that we are not capable of doing the things they ask us to do. The other situation may be that we are unwilling to do what they ask us to do, because their requests may be unreasonable or even illegal. On both occasions we should say directly to them: “No”.

　　But the case is not always the same in our daily life. Some people are afraid to say “No” when they should say so. On the one hand, they are afraid of losing their faces. On the other hand they don’t want to hurt others, such as their family members, relatives, friends or colleagues.

　　To say “Yes” when you should say “No” will eventually do you some harm. If you say “Yes” but fail to help them in the end because of lack of the ability, they may think you are not worthy of trust. If you help them do something bad or illegal, you will be punished for what you have done. So, don’t be afraid to say “No” if necessary.

　　1999.6真題

　　Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: Reading selectively or extensively? You should write at least 100 words, and base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese) below:

　　1.有人認(rèn)為讀書要有選擇

　　2.有人認(rèn)為應(yīng)當(dāng)博覽群書

　　3.我的看法

　　Reading Selectively Or Extensively?

　　Reading selectively or extensively? What is your choice? Perhaps each of us has our choice.

　　Some people think we should read selectively, for there are so many books for us to read. Thousands of new books are published every day. How can we cover all these books in our limited time? Besides, not all the books are worth reading.

　　Some people, on the contrary, choose to read extensively. They think that reading extensively can broaden their horizons. Through reading extensively they can learn something about their ancestors; through reading extensively they can get insight of great men. Reading extensively can also enable us to adapt to the fast developing society. Because we are living in a knowledge�瞖xploding society, if we don’t read extensively, we can’t get enough information about the modern world, and we can’t keep pace with the society.

　　In my opinion, we should read both selectively and extensively. By reading extensively, we can enrich our knowledge of aspects. By reading selectively, we can focus on and learn well the academic knowledge we’ll need in our future work.

　　How I Finance My College Education?

　　Every year, thousands of young men enter universities and colleges. It has been a problem for the students and their families how to finance their college education. In fact, the problem can be dealt with in many ways. The most common way is to get all the money from the parents.If their parents can’t produce the tuition and the fees, students can apply a loan from the bank. There is still another way. Students can finance their education by doing some part�瞭ime jobs in their spare time.

　　As for me, my parents can pay the greater part of the tuition and fees for me. So, I won’t have a heavy financial burden, and I can put all my heart into study. I would like to pay the rest by doing a part�瞭ime job. Although my parents are able to pay all the tuition and fees for me, I just want to know more about the society by my own working experience. Therefore, I choose this way to finance my college education.
