1. 情景作文:人生哲理類:創(chuàng)新(2012 年 12 月真題) Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay entitled Man and Computer by commenting on the saying, “The real danger is not that the computer will begin to think like man, but that man will begin to think like the computer.” You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.?
There is a saying that “The real danger is not that the computer will begin to think like man, but that man will begin to think like the computer.” The purpose of the saying is to show us that utmost importance should be attached to innovation and creativity.? To begin with, an attitude of innovation could be said to be the watchword, or motto of science. Think of all the innumerable times a scientific experiment must be carried out, all the laboratory tests, all the live trials, before a new medicine or vaccine is invented. In addition, innovation is also responsible for many of today’s business successes. For instance, it was only after four years and four different tries of varying business models that an entrepreneur finally found success, and went to become the chairman of one of the largest Internet companies. To sum up, in any field of endeavor, it seems necessary to first put great emphasis on innovation before one can finally reach success. It is as if life is testing us, testing our innovation and creativity to see if we are really dedicated to our vision, before life finally rewards us with success. (196 words)

有句話說“真正的危險不是電腦將開始像人一樣思考,而是人類開始向電腦一樣思考”。
這句話的目的是告訴我們應(yīng)該充分重視創(chuàng)新。
首先,創(chuàng)新的態(tài)度可以說是科學(xué)研究的信條。想想看,只有在進(jìn)行了無數(shù)次的科學(xué)實驗、
實驗室檢測和活體試驗之后,才能發(fā)明新藥物和新疫苗。其次,創(chuàng)新也是當(dāng)今許多企業(yè)能夠
成功的原因。例如,某位企業(yè)家歷經(jīng)四年嘗試了四種不同的商業(yè)模式,最終才取得成功。后
來這位企業(yè)家也當(dāng)上了最大一家互聯(lián)網(wǎng)公司的董事長。
總之,在任何領(lǐng)域,似乎只有在重視創(chuàng)新之后,一個人才能獲得最后的成功。生活好像 是在考驗我們的創(chuàng)新能力,看看我們是否能專注于自己的理想,最后才會給予我們成功。
2. 情景作文:人生哲理類:誘惑(2013 年 6 月真題第一套) Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the remark “Good habits result from resisting temptation.” You can cite examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.?
There is a saying that “Good habits result from resisting temptation” to which I can’t agree more. Unfortunately, lack of determined will and social experience, teenagers frequently fall into the traps of temptations such as Internet games, smoking, drinking, and so on. In a bid to form good habits, one needs a strong will and perseverance to resist temptation. Numerous examples can be given but these will suffice. The outstanding habit of reading classic literature on a regular basis is a case in point. Nevertheless, you would definitely have to spend less time on your favorite Internet games or fascinating mobile phones. Likewise, the good habit of doing exercises every day means repeatedly dragging oneself away from the TV series and cozy couch. These cases effectively clarify that good habits arises from resisting temptation. As has been mentioned above, a wise mind and determined will should be gradually cultivated so that the adolescents can resist various bad temptations and form excellent habits. Just as Oscar Wilde, an esteemed British novelist put it, “I can resist everything except temptation.” (178 words)

有句話說“好的習(xí)慣來自于抵制誘惑”,我非常同意。不幸的是,缺乏堅定的意志和社
會經(jīng)驗,青少年總是陷入網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲、吸煙、喝酒等誘惑的陷阱。
為了養(yǎng)成良好的習(xí)慣,人們需要堅定的意志和堅持不懈來抵制誘惑??梢越o出無數(shù)的例
子,但下面這些例子足矣。經(jīng)常閱讀文學(xué)經(jīng)典的優(yōu)秀習(xí)慣就是其中之一。然而,你必須花費(fèi)
更少的時間在心愛的網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲或誘人的手機(jī)上。同樣,每天進(jìn)行鍛煉的良好習(xí)慣意味著日復(fù)
一日強(qiáng)迫自己遠(yuǎn)離電視劇和舒適的沙發(fā)。這些例子有力地證明了好的習(xí)慣源于抵制誘惑。
綜上所述,青少年應(yīng)該逐漸培養(yǎng)明智的心態(tài)和堅定的意志,以便我們抵制各種各樣不好 的誘惑并形成良好的習(xí)慣。正如奧斯卡?王爾德,著名的英國作家所說:“除了誘惑,我都能 抵制?!?/p>
3. 情景作文:環(huán)境保護(hù)類(2013 年 6 月真題第二套) Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the remark “Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s need, but not every man’s greed.” You can cite examples to illustrate your point. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.
Just as Mahatma Gandhi, a great Indian saint put it, “Earth provides enough to satisfy every man’s need, but not every man’s greed.” More recently, the human race has begun to realize that protecting the earth in its natural condition is imperative for human survival. Essentially, we need the earth to counter the effects of global warming, air pollution and ecological balance. I can think of no better illustration than the following one. Owing to human greed, air pollution has become a major cause of respiratory illnesses. In many cities, the air is so bad that people actually wear masks and air filters. Breathing this air can kill you. More than ever, city dwellers need the natural areas where they can go to rest their lungs and breathe fresh air. Thus, we must preserve and restore whatever the earth we have left, especially the ones in and
around the cities. To summarize, it is clear that humans need to leave the earth in its natural condition. We need the earth to combat air pollution, global warming and population explosion. It is my view that it is a long-term matter of life and death. (193 words)
參考譯文
正如偉大的印度圣人甘地所說,“地球提供了足夠的資源來滿足人類的需要,但無法滿足
人類的貪婪”。最近,人們逐漸認(rèn)識到,保護(hù)地球是人類生存的必要條件。從本質(zhì)上講,我
們需要自然環(huán)境來緩解全球變暖、空氣污染和生態(tài)失衡帶來的影響。
我想不出什么例子比下面這個更好。由于人類的貪婪,空氣污染已經(jīng)成為呼吸系統(tǒng)疾病
的主要原因。在許多城市,空氣污染極其嚴(yán)重,人們甚至?xí)峡谡趾涂諝膺^濾器。呼吸這
種被污染的空氣等于殺害自己。如今,城市居民比以往更加需要自然區(qū)域。人們可以去那里
呼吸新鮮空氣,也歇歇肺。因此,我們必須保護(hù)地球上剩下的東西,尤其是城市內(nèi)和城市周
圍的自然環(huán)境。
總之,人類明顯需要更多地保護(hù)自然狀態(tài)下的地球。人們需要地球來抵抗空氣污染、全 球變暖和人口激增。從長遠(yuǎn)看來,我認(rèn)為這是生死攸關(guān)的事情。
4.情景作文:人生哲理類:人生(2013 年 12 月六級真題第一套) Directions: For this part you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the remark “The greatest use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it.” You can give examples to illustrate your point and then explain what you will do to make your life more meaningful. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.
The famous saying “The greatest use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it” is rather thought-provoking, which tells us the real meaning of life. It is contemporary social issue in China with common interests and permanent value. In my view, there are good reasons to undertake meaningful things that exert positive and profound influence on the society, such as protecting the environment, helping vulnerable groups as well as promoting education. To illustrate, Abraham Lincoln never wavered in his devotion to democracy and equality, whose life has become an inspiration in the United States and throughout the whole world. His life, though limited, definitely lasts longer, and is a life worth living. Likewise, a young person who aspires to be a great writer might decide to buy some literary books or spend weekends writing and refining his works. Without any aspiration, he might simply end up spending all his spare time surfing online or playing Internet games.? In brief, a meaningful life serves to motivate and guide us in our daily lives.It provides us with the focus and direction that enable us to work towards accomplishing a special goal, objective or task.

名言“盡用生命就是將生命花在比它更長遠(yuǎn)的事上”相當(dāng)發(fā)人深思。它告誡我們?nèi)松?/p>
真正意義。這是一個人們普遍關(guān)注并擁有永恒價值的當(dāng)代中國社會問題。?
在我看來,我們應(yīng)該從事對社會產(chǎn)生積極深遠(yuǎn)影響的有意義的事情,例如保護(hù)環(huán)境、幫
助弱勢群體及發(fā)展教育。例如,亞伯拉罕林肯從未放棄投身于民主及平等。他的人生成為美
國以及整個世界的一種鼓舞。盡管他的生命有限,但無疑長久延續(xù)并意義非凡。同樣,一個
渴望成為偉大作家的人,或許會決定買一些文學(xué)書籍或把整個周末的時間用于寫作并修改自
己的作品。而如果沒有志氣的話,他也許只會將所有的閑暇時間用于上網(wǎng)或玩網(wǎng)絡(luò)游戲。
總之,有意義的人生在日常生活中 給予我們激勵和指導(dǎo)。它為我們提供了專注的焦點(diǎn)
和方向的指引,使我們能夠通過努力實現(xiàn)一個特殊的目標(biāo)或任務(wù)。
5.情景作文:人生哲理類:幸福(2013 年 12 月六級真題第二套) Directions: For this part you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay on happiness by referring to the saying “Happiness is not the absence of problems, but the ability to deal with them.” You can cite examples to illustrate your point and then explain how you can develop your ability to deal with problems and be happy. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.
As an old saying goes, “Happiness is not the absence of problems, but the ability to deal with them.” Why is difficult to define, or rather discover and achieve happiness? I maintain the major determinant lies in a person’s attitudes. There is little correlation between the circumstance of people’s lives and how happy they are. Instead, happiness lies in the struggle to be happy. To demonstrate, people sometimes go to extremes, and frantically pursue money, power, high social status, and so on, which are all symbols of success—but never of happiness. Perhaps if they shifted their life’s goal from ultimate success to unswerving efforts and to a confidence that they will be successful one day they would be a great deal happier. Besides defining it, how do I achieve happiness? There is little doubt that various people have diverse ways of going about this task. As for me, the most significant secret is realizing that happiness is a by-product of something else. The most obvious sources are those pursuits that give our lives a purpose. These can be anything from playing tennis to studying insects. The more passions we have, the more happiness we are likely to experience. (199 words)
參考譯文
正如諺語所說:“幸福并非沒有問題,而在于解決問題的能力”。為何很難定義、發(fā)現(xiàn)和
獲得幸福?我認(rèn)為最重要的因素在于人們的態(tài)度。
人們的生活環(huán)境和他們的幸福程度之間沒什么關(guān)系。相反,幸福在于獲取幸福的奮斗之
中。例如,人們有時候會走極端,瘋狂追求金錢、權(quán)利、很高的社會地位等等。這些都是成
功的象征,但并非幸福的象征。也許如果他們把人生目標(biāo)從終極成功轉(zhuǎn)向堅定不移的努力和
未來必將成功的自信,他們將會更加幸福。
除了定義幸福之外,我如何來獲取幸福?毫無疑問不同的人有著迥然不同的方式來實現(xiàn) 這一目標(biāo)。對我而言,最大的秘密就是認(rèn)識到幸福只是其他事情的一種副產(chǎn)品。最明顯的來 源就是給予我們生活目標(biāo)的那些追求。這些追求可以是從打網(wǎng)球到研究昆蟲的任何事情。我 們越有激情,我們越有可能感受到幸福。
6.情景作文:教育文化類:教育:2015 年 6 月第一套 Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the saying “Knowledge is a treasure, but practice is the key to it.” You can give one example or two to illustrate your point of view. You should write at least 150 words but no more than 200 words.
Would you want a doctor to operate on you who has only learned about operations from a textbook? The answer to this is obviously a resounding “No!” Knowledge gained from books must always be complemented by knowledge gained from actual experience, to be of real value. For me actually practicing a particular action or experiment myself and experiencing the result, leaves a much deeper and lasting impression than what I get from simply reading or listening. If I read about how to write an essay or listened to someone talk about writing an essay, I still wouldn’t feel that I knew how to write an essay until I wrote one for myself. The same can be said for other skills, like sports, for example. A person can know all the rules of a game, associated skills and strategies, but until that person gets on a court with a ball in motion, the theory remains flat, useless. To sum up, as to theoretical knowledge and practical skills, the latter is certainly more significant. Just as British churchman Thomas Fuller put it, “Knowledge is a treasure, but practice is the key to it.” (191 words)
參考譯文 你是否愿意讓一位只學(xué)過課本上的手術(shù)知識的醫(yī)生做手術(shù)?顯然,這個問題的答案是一 聲響亮的“不”。從書本中得來的知識必須同從實踐中獲得的知識相結(jié)合,才會有真正的價 值。 對我來說,實踐某件事,或者親自去嘗試某項活動并感受最后的結(jié)果,要比讀書聽課給 我留下的印象更深刻,更持久。如果只是讀到如何寫作,或是聽別人講解寫作方法,我覺得 自己還是不會寫,非得親自寫一篇才行。掌握其他技能也是同樣的道理。以體育為例,一個 人可以通曉所有的比賽規(guī)則和相關(guān)的技巧和戰(zhàn)術(shù),但除非這個人上場打球,否則那堆理論就 是呆板無用的。 總之,對于理論知識和實踐技能來說,后者當(dāng)然更重要。正如英國教士托馬斯?富勒所 說:“知識是一種財富,但實踐是打開財富的鑰匙?!?/p>
