【解析】
本次作文的话题是“过度包装”,话题不断新,考生应该都比较熟悉。
写好本篇作文的关键在于紧跟题目所列提纲:
现象——原因——看法和建议,确定相应的写作结构。
重点分析产生此现象的原因有哪些,把最重要的两三点罗列下来。
最后,根据分析出的原因提供相应的建议。
范文首段开门见山,首先一句话总结如今社会上过度包装现象盛行,而后举出一些实例补充说明。
第二段重点从公司和消费者两方面论述产生过度包装的原因。
公司方面是为了吸引顾客,刺激消费,赢取更多的利润;消费者方面是认为包装越精美,质量越好这种错误的消费意识。
接下来作者表明自己的看法,认为过度包装会导致很多问题:
稀缺资源的流失;水,能源的过度消耗以及产生不必要的垃圾场等。
最后一段作者针对原因提出了一些解决方案。
第一方面,建立法律规章制度来约束企业的过度包装行为。
第二方面,必须让消费者认识到过度包装不等同于高质量,并提倡包装物的回收利用。
本文条理清晰,论述充分,语言使用规范得当,如:
tonamebutafew,thefirstreasonisthat…,ontheotherhand,inmypointofview,tosolvetheproblem,first,inaddition等。

【解析】
这篇文章谈论的是校园盗窃。
从校园相关话题的角度而言,复合式听写的内容非常贴近生活,是考生所熟悉的。
具体听写内容,单词仍然以一句话的主干内容为主,即名词和动词;而句子听写的长度和停顿间隔仍与往年一致,即18词左右,且每句间隔1-2句。
所以,复合式听写难度与往年持平。
但是考生们应考和平时听写时,都需要特别注意细节,如名词复数的变化,emergency的复数emergencies;难词的拼写calculator(计算器)、theft(盗窃)。
