参考范文：

A recent investigation shows that about 80 percent of pupils have private tutors.Such a popular practice indicates that people are attaching greater importance to education. Many parents, for various reasons, missed the chance of obtaining a good education. When their children meet with difficulties in study, they are helpless. Private tutoring is the only solution. As private tutoring is usually one-to-one, the teacher knows the strong points as well as the weak points of the pupil clearly.

However, private tutoring has its own disadvantages. For one thing, it takes up so much of the pupils’ time that they can hardly find enough time for rest and entertainment, which are essential for their physical and mental health. For another, some teachers, busy “shuttling” from one family to another, tend to neglect their regular teaching duties. What’s more, some teachers are eager to help pupils do well in the test, offering the so-called tips for test-taking rather than help them acquire what is more meaningful.

Generally speaking, its disadvantages outweigh its advantages. Greater emphasis should be laid on classroom teaching and practice, on the improvement of teaching quality and on the tapping of pupils’ potentials. Only in this way can a new generation be healthily brought up.

英语四级作文范文：替孩子做决定

1.很多家长习惯于替孩子做决定，如选择学校，选择工作等。

2.分析这种现象给孩子带来的影响。

3.你的看法是……

范文:

In modern society, traditional patriarchy is still influencing Chinese parents. They tend to make almost all decisions for their children, from choosing schools to picking up a profession.Sometimes even many detailed things such as clothing and diets have to be decided by parents.

However, deciding everything for children does not help them but harm them in many ways. On the one hand, it will make children lack independence and initiative, which is unfavorable to their development in the long run. On the other hand, in many cases, parents' decisions are not always in accordance with their children's personal ideas and interest. It will make children form resistance and naturally influence their growth.

From my point of view, it is unwise for parents to male every decision for their children. It's obvious that parents cannot accompany their children all the time. Growing to be independent is the natural way for everybody. Therefore, parents should give their children rights to make their own decisions. They can help their children but not replace them to make choices.

More and more children are showing up at schooleach September with cell phones. Many parents buytheir children a cell phone because it is a nice safetymeasure. It gives those working parents a littlesense of control and security to know when theirchildren are off campus and on their way home.

But having a cell phone might be a problem. Parents may find themselves facing afrightening bill at the end of the month.

Parents’ Being Slaves to Children

Parents’ being slaves to their children or “child’sslave” is nowadays a hot topic in China. It refers toyoung parents who have to spend a large part oftheir income on children. These parents feel greatstrain under the burden of raising a child and struggle hard to make as much money aspossible.

The cost of raising a child in China is becoming greater and greater. But economic pressureis not the only reason that makes young parents “child’s slave”. Parents’ competing with eachother in trying to provide the best possible living conditions for their children should also beblamed.

If this problem continues, it would affect parents and the development of our country.These parents would suffer from huge economic pressure, which may pose a threat to theirmarriages or physical and mental health. On the other hand, to avoid being slaves, somecouples are unwilling to have children.

2011年12月17日之前的四六级作文，都给出了中文提纲。一种文体是：antithetical-views essay 对立观点作文：写两种对立的观点，最后给出个人观点。另问题则是：problem-solving essay 问题解决作文：解释问题原因危害，给出个人看法建议。

Some people believe that children should be allowed to stay at home and play until they are six or seven years old. Others believe that it is important for young children to go to school as soon as possible. What do you think are the advantages of attending school from a young age?

In many places today, children start primary school at around the age of six or seven. However, because it is more likely now that both parents work, there is little opportunity for children to stay in their own home up to that age. Instead, they will probably go to a nursery school when they are much younger.

While some people think this may be damaging to a child’s development, or to a child’s relationship with his or her parents, in fact there are many advantages to having school experience at a young age.

Firstly, a child will learn to interact with a lot of different people and some children learn to communicate very early because of this. They are generally more confident and independent than children who stay at home with their parents and who are not used to strangers or new situations. Such children find their first day at school at the age of six very frightening and this may have a negative effect on how they learn.

Another advantage of going to school at an early age is that children develop faster socially. They make friends and learn how to get on with other children of a similar age. This is often not possible at home because they are the only child, or because their brothers or sisters are older or younger.

So overall, I believe that, attending school from a young age is good for most children. They still spend plenty of time at home with their parents, so they can benefit from both environments.

The Bad Influence on Children Brought by Modern Science and Technology

If we depend on modern technology too much, it will bring bad effects especially to children.

During the growth of children, basic education is essential. Computers and scientific tools should not replace school education. Through systematic study in school, children can oversimplify the life. In this way, children will become very lazy and unwilling to use their mind.

Besides, staying in front of the computer to long will bedetrimental to chitdren＇s health. The radiation from the compurer will arise many uncomfortable feelings. For instance, losing hair, not sleeping very wett and having a headache, etc. The biggest harm to children is that staring at the compurer for a tong time will damage the vision. So the children have to wear a pair of glasses early from their school days. It will do harm to the whole process of their growth.

This kind of dependence on computer atso can arise the dependence on their parents in life. If they do their homework with easy tools, how can they do their own businesses through themselves? They may just sit in front of the computer and ask for this and that without moving, at the same time, they will reduce the amount of exercise.

So, it＇s time to limit their bad manners. It is not only for them but also for the advance of the whole nation. What should be developed is their mind. Chidren should achieve success through their own efforts.

现代科技在给人们带来便捷的同时，也带来一些不良影响，尤其是孩子。作者举了两个例子说明孩子过分依赖于电脑的后果，令人担忧。其实这种担忧似乎有些片面，只能看作一家之言。
[参考译文]
现代科技带给儿童的不良影响

如果过分依赖于现代科技，那么它就会给我们，尤其是我们的孩子带来不良影响。

在孩子的成长期间，基础教育至关重要。计算机和科学工具不应取代学校教育。通过在学校的系统学习，孩子们都能学会如何学习，如何创造和如何做人。但是通过电脑孩子们只能学会如何简化生活。这样一来，他们就会变得很懒惰并且不愿动脑。

除此之外，在电脑前停留时间过长不利于孩子们的健康。电脑射线会引起许多不适的感觉。例如：脱发、睡眠不良和头痒等等。最大的不利就是损伤视力。因此，有些孩子不得不从上小学就带眼镜。这对他们的成长是有害的。这种对电脑的依赖也会导致他们在生活上对父母的依赖。如果他们仅会用简单的工具来做他们枯燥的作业，那么他们怎么能独自做事?他们可能只是坐在电脑前，一动不动地要这要那，同时减少他们的身体锻炼。

因此，现在是限制他们坏习惯的时候了。这不仅仅是为了他们，而且是为了整个国家的进步，应该发展他们的头脑。孩子们应该通过自身的努力来取得成功。
 

英语四级作文预测范文：少儿真人秀

　　想必同学们都喜欢看电视上热播的少儿真人秀，一个个不要太可爱了。但是，这对小孩子的成长各方面的影响是好是坏呢？请发表一下自己的意见！

　　题目要求:

　　Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic Children’s participation in reality shows. You should write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

　　Children’s participation in reality shows

　　Nowadays, it has become a trend for children to participate in reality shows. However, is it really good for them?

　　There are two sides for each coin. On one hand, participating in reality shows is good for children. First, it can make children more courageous and more confident. Second, some shows such as outdoor shows can make children more independent. For example, in some shows, children are required to accomplish some tasks without their parents accompanying them. That is a good way to train the children.

　　On the other hand, children’s participation in reality shows may cause some disadvantages to them. For instance, children may become vainglorious if they win some fame from the shows. They may tend to pay more attention to undeserved reputation instead of studying hard. They may overlook the importance of working hard.

　　As a result, you really need to think carefully before you take your children to reality shows. I personally feel that these shows make the children grow up too fast. Why not just let them be children?
 

四级英语作文预测范文：关爱留守儿童

　　　　Children Should Be Loved

Most of us own a simple and good life. City born and city bred, we sometimes imagine theidyllic pastoral scene such as the friendly people, the clean atmosphere, the closeness to nature and the gentle pace of living. In face, everything has its pros and cons. The other side of picture is that leftover children have become a heavy topic nowadays, because most parents of these children consider that to feed their children well and to let them grow up health and safe in body are the most important task.However, as a matter of fact, in addition to provide the basic needs for their children, parents should pay more attention to their children’s psychological6 needs and their education.

For one thing, parents who cannot accompany their children often need to pay more attention to their children’s psychological needs.Therefore, it seems to me that government can set up a parents school for these children on holidays and organize" hand-in-hand" activity to call on more people to help them. We can also raise money to donate to these children. As the song says:"If everyone gives their love, the world will be better." It's very important for us to pay more attention to these children if we want to build a harmonious society.

For another, education of leftover children is also quite important. As the saying goes, “knowledge can change our fate”, education is an effective way to change the future of those children. In order to make those leftover children grow up in health, therefore, we need to show more concern about their psychological needs and their education.

In my view, leftover children should be encouraged to live with or near their parents, which is very helpful for them to be loved and concerned, they also can have a simple and good life.
