1、英语写作范文2010年专业英语四级考试作文范文示例(一) CrisisCrisis is to our life what illness is to our body. Just as fatal disease can destroy our body and sometimes even put an end to our lives, so does smashing crisis knock us down so hopelessly that we might never have chance of standing up again. However, most crises

2、that frequent us in life are not such category. They, like occasional ailments which sometimes can bolster our bodys immune system, are mostly minor and surmountable and therefore making us hardy enough to survive whatever adversities in our later life. Even those serious crises, if handled properly

3、, can be turned to a blessing to us, too.As far as a nation is concerned, crisis can be rendered beneficial. Take Wenchuan earthquake which shook most of Sichuan recently for example. The crisis has cost us Chinese a lot. Houses collapsed, bridges broke down and many affected areas were cut off from

4、 the outside world. Nearly a million people lost their homes, ten thousands of people were injured and another ten thousands of people were killed. But our sufferings wont go in vain. Scientists are more determined to improve the means by which we forecast earthquakes with more accuracy. We should b

5、uild houses which can survive the destructive earthquakes. And we also should better the mechanism to face the emergencies and crisis.As for economic life, crises are not always rendered bad. During these times, we can stop the race of fast economy to speculate about some fundamental issues of human

6、ity such as how much high-speed development in this way can contribute to the well-being of human life. Just take my own country for instance. Of course, in the past two decades or so, our economy has gained the highest speed man has experienced. But havent we paid too much? Our rivers are polluted.

7、 Our natural resources are shrinking. Our national power of creation is drained. Is it worthy of it? Isnt it high time we gave it a serious thought? Shouldnt we stop making ourselves long in quantity and short in quality? And chance of deep thought has come with this crisis, which is now deepening i

8、n most parts of the world.Crisis sometimes contributes to our life treasure in a way that few can imagine. It can weather us and make us strong enough to face ourselves when we feel weak. Eric, my uncle is a case in point. He had hard time in his childhood going through such a fatal disease that he

9、had never thought he could survive. He was in due course saved by doctors. Ever since then he regarded his life as a second given by God and has been so grateful to the world that he has been doing whatever he can to give back in the same measure to other fellows. And now he is living a happy and su

10、ccessful life.As a well-known ancient Chinese notion goes, the past lessons if not forgotten can be good teachers for us all. If we can bear in mind the various sufferings and ordeals we have experienced, then our sufferings will not go unrewarded and those of our compatriots who was killed in the e

11、arthquake did not die in vain. We should take the lessons from crisis and regard them as a chance for new growth.范文示例(二) Buying or Borrowing Books?Books are close friends of humanity. They can arm us with knowledge and information we need to make success of life. Through books we can obtain skills a

12、nd techniques for survival and development. Through books we can enlighten our spirits and live a fuller life. There are generally two ways in which we can have access to books: borrowing or buying. While millions are borrowing books, I still think buying them best suits me and gives me the greatest

13、 enjoyment.Admittedly, there are a few merits for borrowing books. For one thing, borrowing books can save us huge amounts of money. And of course, with the money saved we can do other more worthy things .And also, as we borrow books from the library and friends, we normally have deadline to finish

14、them, and consequently we can read more books in a limited time. And we can, above all, better our efficiency of our reading, just as a famous Chinese saying goes, “books can not be read unless borrowed.”However, some advantages for buying books are more obvious and compelling. One of them, definite

15、ly not shared by the choice of borrowing books, is the abundance of freedom that buying books can offer us. Since we can keep the books as long as we wish, we can read as much as we want. Another strength of owing books is that we can take whatever notes on the margin of the pages of the books. And

16、finally, the process of selecting and keeping books can be a great fun that borrowing books can by no means offer.While borrowing books can, to some extent, quench our thirst for knowledge, buying books gives us greater pleasure of selecting and keeping the best of the world treasure. Can we think o

17、f any thing else more delightful and rewarding?范文示例(三) TVBlessing or Curse?Few things in the modern world have so much influence on people as the television does. Being besieged with TV news, absorbing teleplays, well-masterminded programmes, one can easily conclude that TV is a real blessing to the

18、 human society, offering affluent entertainment and information. Yet, convenient and helpful as it is, the television also brings negative effects.To begin with, TV makes people more passive than before: since everything on TV is ready-made, there is no space for audiences initiatives. The news has

19、been carefully edited, teleplays well shot, programmes rehearsed, so all you need to doand all you can do is to sit on a comfortable sofa and look at the screen. Though a lot of people enjoy doing this, the undoubted truth is that people are becoming more passive simply because there is no interacti

20、on and no efforts on them.Television also contributes to the fact that people nowadays are more distant to each other. Since most of our free time is taken away by the act of watching TV, we can no longer find enough time to visit friends, call on relatives or go to interesting places. This is also

21、true within a family, parents and children and other members are less close to each other, because family get-togethers and conversations are disturbed by TVwhen one member is watching TV, he would like others to keep quiet.Of course I am not denying the great conveniences and huge benefits the TV b

22、rings us, but to make it a really blessing to us, we should try to avoid its negative effects.范文示例(四)Living in university dormitories or apartments in the community?I think it is better for college students to live on campus during their first two years, and then move into an apartment for off-campu

23、s life, while juniors and seniors need the independence of off-campus life.students needs change over four years, so their housing should too.Living on-campus makes it easier to get oriented to the way things are done. You get the whole university experience. Plus, you interact more with other stude

24、nts. This includes not only your roommates, but everyone in your dormitory. The older students in the dormitory can be a big help for the new students. Keeping up with studies in your first year is hard enough. You should not have to worry about finding your way around and figuring out the universit

25、y bureaucracy.Living in the dormitory also make a student feel more a part of the uniersity community. There are more opportunities for becoimg involved in university activities and networking with students and university administraction.Living off-campus, however, is a definite advantage for older

26、students. Fingding an apartment, dealing with leases and the landlords regulations, cooking meals, and figuring out budgets are all good practice for life after graducation. This kind of independence helps older students grow in adulthood.Off-campus housing also gives students a better perspective o

27、n what is going on around them. Campus can be like little worlds of their own. There are few children or older people and everyone is focused on education. Getting to know neighbors who are not students is good for students coming from difference places. It is a chance to find out what other people

28、think and feel.I think a combination of two years on-campus and two years off-campus is a winning combination for most students.范文示例(五)How to Achieve Team WorkExperience is the best teacher, people say. Indeed, the most important, and sometimes the hardest, lessons we learn in life come from our par

29、ticipation in situations. For my part, you cant learn everything from a book. And only practice makes you a successful person.To begin with, first-hand experience is important for a child. When we were children, we learned the fundamental lessons of life solely from experience. That is to say, paren

30、ts teach us by experience such as how to walk steadily, how to cope with the adults, and so on and so forth. Secondly, first-hand experience is also important for an adolescent. At school, we do not learn everything from books, in that few books can teach us successfully how to meet new people and m

31、ake more friends. Finally, as we leave adolescence behind and enter adult life, no book can teach us how to fall in love and get married. But experiencing our own triumphs and disasters is really the only way to learn how to live a successful life.To conclude, knowledge gained both from experience a

32、nd from books have their respective roles to play in our life. However, in my view, I think the former one is more important than the latter one. The most important lessons cant be taught; they have to be experienced.范文示例(六)Should college students do part-time jobs?In many countries it is common for teenagers to take part-time jobs while they are still in high school, while in other societies this is virtually unheard of. In the latter situation, students are expected to spend all of their time on their studies and consider schoolwork their job. In my
