Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled The Way to Success by commenting on Abraham Lincoln’s famous remark,“Give me six hours to chop down a tree, and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.” You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.
“Give me six hours to chop down a tree , and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.”Abraham Lincoln once said.Although four hours seem to be quite a long time, it can help people chop down the tree more smoothly and less laboriously in the rest two hours. It is obvious that a full preparation can enhance the efficiency of trees-chopping.
The saying aims at informing us of the significance of adequate preparation. Definitely , we can’t emphasize the importance of full preparation too much in our pursuit of success. A full preparation enables us to achieve our objectives and realize our dreams more smoothly and rapidly. The more preparation we make, the more likely we are to become confidence, reduce the risks of failure and seize the fleeting opportunities. For example, when graduates hunt for jobs, it is those who are well prepared that can surpass other candidates and get the offer finally.
Accordingly, at no time should we overlook the power of preparation. Besides, we need to set up a proper goal, carry out a full investigation and elaborate a detailed plan before we take actions. “Preparation breeds success.” Benjamin Franklin also once said. (200 words)

明星代言问题 On the Celebrity Spokesperson Currently, we could hardly live a single day without seeing a celebrity spokesperson promoting a product or a social campaign on TV, net or other media. This is an intensely popular trend that we cannot fail to notice. There is no doubt that the celebrity spokespeople could boost the sale of a product. A host of celebrity spokespersons, however, have emerged as the marketing tool of some companies, even companies producing and selling fake and inferior items. This kind of behavior has produced negative impacts on consumers and whole society, which should be severely criticized and penalized. Of course, as is known to all, everything has both bright and dark sides. Some stars' endorsement of social activities and public campaigns raises public awareness, giving rise to changes in public behavior. In this case, they serve as positive role models of the general public. To name only one case: Pu CX, a household figure, acting as the celebrity spokesman of the China AIDS Foundation, contributes greatly to the cause of AIDS prevention and cure in China. 关于选秀节目 Over the past couple of years, a variety of talent shows have emerged on TV channels across the nation, from Super Girls to Happy Boys and so forth. This type of entertainment program is intensely popular, especially among young adults and has produced profound impacts on their studies and life. There are a couple of reasons behind the tide. To start with, young folks need role models to learn from. So many of them are crazy for contestants participating in these programs. This gives rise to the increasing emergence of these shows because TV networks naturally need to cater to young audiences. Plus, thanks to economic and political reforms carried out by the government, this crop of young generation have more freedom and desire to express and showcase themselves. Therefore, a growing number of young people desire to get involved in these shows. This is a divisive topic. On my personal level, the talent show is a superb means of relaxing and amusing and can hugely relieve our strains. As college students, however, we could not afford to indulge in them and should be aware of the utmost importance of studies. 食品安全问题 On the Food Security Over the past couple of years, several cases of the food scandal have been disclosed on various media. The problem of food security has become a hot button across society. The prevalence of food insecurity has greatly impacted public health, which the government could not afford to ignore, according to the online edition of the People Daily. There are a couple of driving forces, I would argue, behind this undesirable tide. First, in the course of the rapid economic evolution, we ignore moral education, giving rise to the rising rate of the problem. More importantly, the lack of adequate regulation and punishment on those illegal producers enforces the trend. As Confucius instructed, it is better late than never. Prompt and strict measures should be taken to turn back this evil trend. The government should launch a massive moral campaign to educate all citizens and draw up tougher laws to crack down on those irresponsible corporations and prohibit them from entering the food industry again. I am firmly convinced that through our combined efforts we are bound to enjoy more risk-free foods in the days ahead. 社会不文明现象 On Uncivilized Behaviors We cannot fail to notice that countless uncivilized behaviors exist in our daily lives, such as spitting, talking loudly, littering, saying nasty words in public places and so forth. All these are bad manners that we should not lose sight of. As an ancient land enjoying a splendid civilization spanning over 5,000 years, China is witnessing a surge in improper acts that every Chinese citizen should feel ashamed of. Uncivilized behaviors by a host of Chinese both at home and abroad have seriously affected China's image, according to an editorial posted on People Daily's official website. As Chinese, we should not get offended when others point out our weaknesses but should focus more attention on improving ourselves. We should strive to identify the causes of those improper behaviors and find ways to eliminate them. There are a host of causes, I would argue, behind this trend. To name only one: the lack of moral education. The government should wage a massive moral campaign to fight against this trend and we ourselves should endeavor to behave decently in our daily lives. As college students of the new age, we should take the leading role. 感恩 On Cultivating the...

The Campus Activity that Has Benefited Me MostAs a coin has two sides, when it comes to “what campus activity that has benefited you most”,different people may have different opinions. As far as I am concerned, It is the psychological composition competition that has benefited me most.There are, to my mind, plenty of shaping factors, among which, the following ones are particularly worth mentioning. One of the most valuable one is it is the field that I like. I can find a place to say something, either to the world or to myself, which will make me feel relax, get a good mood and enjoy myself. Another fundamental one which should not be neglected is I can appreciate others' merits and find my own weakness, and then make up for it. Last but not least, I can find people who have the same thinking and interest with me, and become friends. Take myself for instance, it is in the psychological composition competition that I find my soul mate.Judging from the reams of evidence, it is safe for me to conclude that psychological composition competition is the campus activity that has benefited me most. If it had not been for it, I could not have enjoyed myself so much.
2013年12月英语四级真题作文范文
作文要求: Direction: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay based on the picture below. You should start your essay with a brief account of the impact of the Internet on learning and then explain why education doesn't simply mean learning to obtain information. Your should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words. (如图所示,我们看到有一个学生和一个老师正站在教室里。
当学生要求做一个随堂测试的时候,他手上拿着手机说到:"一旦我知道了如何使用Google,那不就是我所要需要的全部的教育么?"听到了学生这样的问题,老师显得尴尬而又惊讶。
) 真题范文: From the cartoon given above, we can observe that there is a student and a teacher standing in a classroom. When given a quiz by his teacher, the little boy says, with cell phone in his hand that, "once I learn how to use Google, isn't that all the education I really need?" Having heard her student's question, the teacher seems to be quite embarrassed and shocked. We can learn from the cartoon that the Internet has exerted a great influence on people's education. One of the most obvious influences is that we can acquire relevant knowledge and information rapidly and precisely via search engines, professional websites and online education. The internet has been served as a big school, a huge library and an informative book. However, education does not simply mean learning to obtain information. Studying in school, daily communication with people around us, social activities and fulfilling a task or a project can also be effective and indispensable forms. They enable us to enrich our knowledge, broaden our horizons, cultivate skills in communication and practice or even refine our character. All of these can not be achieved by the Internet education alone. The Internet has exerted a great impact on many aspects of people' life (of course including education). However, when enjoying the fruits of it, we should not overlook those traditional, essential and prevailing forms of education. By the way, do you think that institutions like shcools or libraries will vanish in the wake of the Internet ? (250 words) 真题范文的参考译文: 我们从这幅图画得知,网络对我们的学习造成了巨大的影响。
最大的影响就是获得信息的巨大的便利性。
我们可以通过搜索引擎、专业的门户网站或者在线教育快速而又精准地获得相关的知识和信息。
网络在现代社会已经变成了一个巨大的学校、一座巨大的图书馆或者是一本充满信息的书。
然而,教育绝不仅仅意味着学会获取信息。
学校的读书上课、与身边的人的日常生活的沟通交流、社会的实践活动以及完成一项任务或项目都是教育的有效而必不可少的形式。
它们使我们丰富的知识,扩大的视野,培养交流和实践能力甚至完善性格。
而这些,都是搜索信息这样的教育形式所无法达到的。
互联网在生活的各个方面(当然包括教育)产生了巨大的影响。
然而,我们在享用它给教育带来的成果的同时,也不能忽视那些传统的、精华的和主流的教育形式。
顺便问一句,你觉得学校、图书馆这样的机构会在某一天淹没在互联网的大潮中吗?(范文来自新东方)
