Notice
We have the pleasure to inform you that the Students’ Union will hold a debate on Nature and Nurture in the auditorium from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. on the 18th of October. 1
Which has more influence on us, nature or nurture? Over the years, various experiments and studies have been carried out in an effort to determine the relative importance of heredity and environment.

哪个对我们的影响更大?是先天遗传,还是后天培养?多年以来,人们进行了各式各样的实验和研究,试图查明遗传和环境的相对重要性。一些研究指出,先天遗传和后天培养同样重要,然而另一些则不这么认为。关于基因和环境的辩论仍在继续。
我们欢迎所有的学生参与比赛。想要参赛的同学需要在10月4日之前到学生会的办公室报名。决赛中获胜者会有奖品。请决定你要辩论的阵营并且尽全力做好准备。我们期待所有辩手的精彩发挥。

参考范文
In recent years, traffic jam has become one of the growing concerns for the residents of most urban areas. Heavy transportation pressure in large cities may bring much inconvenience to people and even severely disturb our normal life. At the same time, it may exert negative impact on the environment. 1 How to relieve the headache? The following measures may be effective. 2
Firstly 3 , the government should adopt such policies as raising taxes on the purchase of private cars and allowing one family to buy at most one car, so as to limit the amount of private cars. Secondly 3 , construction of public transportation such as buses and subways should be accelerated so that citizens find it more convenient and faster to take public transport than driving cars. Meanwhile 3 , flexible working hours can be introduced, so that people can stagger the rush hours.
In a word, more than ever before, heavy traffic has become a source of headache for both the urban population and the city authorities. Serious as it is, traffic pressure can be alleviated sooner or later if the government can take the above effective measures and the public can pay more attention to their living environment. 4
近年来,交通拥堵已成为很多城市居民越来越担忧的问题之一。大城市的巨大交通压力可能给人们带来极大不便,甚至严重影响到我们的正常生活。同时,它也会对环境造成负面影响。如何缓解交通压力?如下措施或许奏效。
首先,政府应采取一些政策限制私家车的购买,比如增加购买私家车的税收,一个家庭只允许购买一辆私家车等。其次,还应加速诸如公共汽车和地铁等公共交通的建设,以使市民觉得乘坐公共交通出行比驾驶私家车出行更为方便和快捷。此外,可以采取灵活工作时间,这样人们就可以错开高峰期上下班。
总之,交通压力巨大已成为城市居民和政府越来越头疼的问题。尽管形势严峻,如果政府能采取以上有效措施,公众能更加关注自身的生存环境,交通压力迟早能得到缓解。

2. In a word, more than ever before, heavy traffic has become a source of headache for both the urban population and the city authorities.
in a word是表示总结的常用表达,意为“总之”;more than ever before意为“比以往任何时候更……”,用在此处表示强调。

参考范文
How terrible the traffic is! The picture depicts a scenario of a terrible traffic jam in the street. There are so many cars congesting around the traffic light that they are squeezed out of shape. In fact, it is more like a parking lot than a street here. 1
Exaggerated as it is, the phenomenon is not uncommon nowadays. 2 Objective factors that contribute to traffic jams in metropolis include a large volume of vehicles, a sharp increase in new cars and relatively slow expansion of roads, unreasonable layout of the city and poor traffic management, etc. 3 Compared with the objective factors, subjective factors need to be paid more attention to. 4 After a careful observation, you will see most of the car drivers in the picture have not obeyed the traffic regulations. 3
To alleviate traffic jams, some measures need to be taken. 5 One way is to develop a fast and efficient public transport system, such as urban railways, commuting buses, bicycles, etc. Another way is for employers to adopt flexi-time, which lets employees avoid the rush-hour traffic. Still another way is to enhance drivers’ and other citizens’ traffic awareness. Only by joint efforts can the problem of urban traffic congestion be solved gradually. 6
多么糟的交通状况!这幅漫画描述了街上糟糕的交通堵塞场景。众多车辆拥堵在交通信号灯周围,以至于它们被挤压变形了。实际上,这里与其说是一条街道,还不如说是一个停车场。
虽然这幅图有点夸张,但是这种现象在今天并不罕见。造成大城市交通堵塞的客观因素包括巨大的汽车保有量、新车数量的剧增、道路扩展的相对落后、不合理的城市规划和落后的交通管理等。与这些客观因素相比,主观因素更不容忽视。仔细观察就会发现,图画中大部分司机都没有遵守交通规则。
为了缓解交通堵塞,我们需要采取一些措施。一种方法是发展快速有效的公共交通系统,比如城铁、通勤班车、自行车等。另一种方法是雇主们可以采取弹性工作时间制,这样员工就可以避免在上下班高峰期出行。还有一种方法是增强司机和市民的交通意识。只有共同努力,城市交通拥堵问题才能逐渐得到解决。
范文点评
1. 开篇描述图片的内容,通过比喻句的使用突出城市交通堵塞问题的严重性。
2. 自然过渡,引出下文对城市交通拥堵的原因分析,紧扣作文话题。
3. 从客观和主观两个方面分析造成交通拥堵的原因,条理清晰。
4. 采用对比论证,恰如其分,同时也体现了论证方法的多样性。
5. 针对原因,提出三种缓解交通拥堵的方法,方法切实可行。
6. 末句总结全文,重申观点,指出只有通过共同努力才能解决交通堵塞问题。
要点用法

metropolis n. 大都市

审题立意
1. 导语解读:要求考生从评论“门门皆通,样样稀松”这一谚语入手,就“专业化”这一话题展开论述。
2. 文章立意:三百六十行样样皆通是不可能的,多才多艺固然很好,但不太可能掌握每一领域的精髓。而且,我们的社会需要的不只是样样皆通的人,更需要学而精的人。因此,既是通才,又是专家,才是当今社会发展需要的人才。
写作思路
1. 第一段简要评论引言文字,然后提出论点:我们的社会渴求的不只是样样精通的人,还需要学而精的人。
2. 第二段阐述杂而不精虽有一定的优势,但现代社会中学而精的人更受欢迎。
3. 第三段呼应前文,再次强调既是通才、又是专家才更符合社会发展的需要。
参考范文
The expression “Jack of all trades and master of none” is a figure of speech used in reference to a person who is competent with many skills but is not necessarily outstanding in any particular one. 1 In my opinion, our society needs more people of masters instead of jacks of all trades. 2
A Jack of all trades is used to describe a person who can do many different kinds of work but not necessarily well. Being eager to learn and acquire numerous skills, they are admired for their versatility. Their experience teaches them to work with people from different walks of life and perform a great variety of duties. 3 However, despite their many skills, “master of none” makes bad impression on others. Nowadays, work has become more and more specialized. People who are specialized in a particular field are more and more popular. 3
As I see it, a Jack of all trades does enjoy many choices in the work. But if at the same time he happens to be a master, he will be quite adaptable in modern society as a generalist and expert. 4
“门门精通,样样稀松”是一种比喻的说法,指一个人虽然具备多种技能,但未必样样精通。在我看来,我们的社会渴求的更多的是学而精的人,而不是博尔不精的人。
“博而不精的人”是用来描述能够做许多不同工作但不一定做得好的人。他们渴望去学习和获得众多技能,他们的多才多艺让人羡慕。他们的经验教他们去与不同行业的人打交道并且尽不同的职责。然而,尽管他们掌握很多技能,但“学而不精”会给人留下不好的印象。当今,工作变得越来越专业化。在某一特殊领域的专业人才变得越来越受欢迎。
我认为,一个杂而不精的人的确在工作中有很多的选择。但如果他同时碰巧也能精通,作为通才和专家,他就会在当今社会中有很强的适应力。
范文点评
1. 开篇简要解释引语的含义,意在引出作文话题。
2. 自然过渡,借话题表明自己的观点:我们的社会渴求的更多的是学而精的人,而不是博尔不精的人。
3. 阐述“博而不精的人”固然有其优势,但已不符合现代社会专业化发展的需要。
4. 总结全文,重申观点,通才兼专家的人才是现代社会更需要的。

be competent with 称职;胜任
versatility n. 多才多艺

句法点评
1. The expression “Jack of all trades and master of none” is a figure of speech used in reference to a person who is competent with many skills but is not necessarily outstanding in any particular one.
此句中过去分词短语used in reference to a person作定语,修饰figure of speech;而who引导的定语从句who is competent with many skills but is...particular one修饰person。句式结构较为复杂。
2. However, despite their many skills, “master of none” makes bad impression on others.
此句中despite可以用in spite of来替换;或者改成even though或although引导的从句:even though they have many skills。
1.在现代社会,城市交通问题变得越来越严重
2.城市交通问题的表现以及对人们生活的影响
3.解决的方法与措施
题材连接:
城市交通问题属于比较热点的社会话题,对于的作文题材来说,越来越偏重于社会的次热点话题,而且与人们的生活密切相关,让考生拿到题目后有话可说,有文可写.对于目前的社会问题来说了,除了交通问题外,住房问题,就业的问题都可能作为考查的范围与话题

There is no doubt that traffic congestion becomes a growing worry for theresidents of most urban areas. Some major roads are regularly choked withtraffic in rush hours. The limited transport capacity contributes largely to thevexing problem. How to solve the headache?.
The existing solutions to traffic jam mainly aim at creating metro bussystems and broadening major roads. Widening the existing roads can solvetraffic snarls on some level. Soaring car ownership compounds the chronicannoying problem, so we must sharply reduce the heavy reliance on cars and drivea shift to the mass transportation. It is a cheap and good way. We can create asystem of customized bus routes and highlight the development of subways,trolleys and light rail. The effective combination of these solutions willenable the urban areas to possess a smooth traffic.

Opportunity and Success
1、有人说机会对取得成功起重要作用
2、也有人说智慧和勤奋才是通向成功的唯一途径
3、我的看法
【范文】
Some deem that opportunity is the key to success. For example, those global business giants like Google owe their success to the huge opportunities they meet. Google's boom benefits from the frenzy of Internet. Another striking example is Zhang Liangying's overnight sensation. Super Girl Voice Contest, a golden opportunity for her, put the spotlight on her.
Others argue that intelligence and diligence outweigh opportunity. There is solely a Google around the planet. The Internet superpower gains from its co-founders' advanced technology and keen insight into the global internet market. Zhang Liangying demonstrated her distinguished talent and the very wide vocal range. For this reason, she left an favorable impression with judges and won a host of diehard fans.
In my eyes, success is strongly linked with both. The combination of these two factorsbreeds success. There are enormous opportunities beckoning us. We must seize them and exert our all-out intelligence and ability.
