第四部分作文（Writing）Test1Directions:For this part,you are allowed30minutes to write a composition on the topic Should Retirement Age Be Postponed in China? You should write about120words following the Chinese outline below.(1)有些人认为应该延迟退休年龄，也有些人反对延迟退休年龄；(2)我的看法范文：In recent couple of years,there has been much controversy across China over whether the retirement age should be postponed.While some people are in favor of the proposal of delaying the retirement age,others apparently take the opposite ground.Weighing both pros and cons of putting off the retirement time,I am inclined to side with the latter viewpoint.To begin with,if the old and infirm retire at a later age,they are bound to undesirably stand in the way of the younger and healthier people,who are desperate for a work chance. Moreover,imposing such a policy upon those who have worked though long years and are counting their days for a good rest is actually impairing their welfare.In addition,retiring later means a larger proportion of the aged left in working places,who have lower efficiency and less enthusiasm for innovation--two apparent demerits for rising prosperity.Based on what has been discussed above,a sound conclusion can be drawn that putting off the retirement age is a double-edged sword and may do more harm than good to senior citizens as well as the society.Test2Directions:For this part,you are allowed30minutes to write a composition on the topic Should Celebrities Be a Positive Role Model? You should write about120words following the Chinese outline below.(1)有些人认为明星应该成为模范和榜样（role model），也有些人认为明星不必成为我们的模范和榜样；(2)我的看法范文Over the years,there has been lasting debate over whether celebrities should be role models.Some people claim that celebrities are obliged to set positive examples for their far-reaching social influence. Others,nevertheless,apparently stand on a different ground.They argue that public figures are under no commitment of being role models.Weighing merits and demerits of both arguments,I am inclined to favor the latter.To begin with,no individual is perfect,and icons are no exception.They may stand out in certain field but are no different from ordinary people in other aspects.Furthermore,to err is human.Celebrities,just like us,may commit forgivable minor mistakes in life.It would be too demanding and unreasonable to require them to get everything right. And above all,celebrities live under the spotlight at the cost of their freedom.Instead of being committed to set examples in all areas,they deserve more personal space to be at their own.To sum up,celebrities should not be burdened with the task of setting role models.Instead,they are entitled to decent personal freedom.Test3Directions:For this part,you are allowed30minutes to write a composition on the topic Should College Freshmen be Escorted by Parents on the Enrollment Day?You should write about120words following the Chinese outline below.(1)如今很多大学新生入学时都由父母陪同；(2)我对这种现象的看法。

范文Currently,you cannot fail to discern a conspicuous fact that the vast majority of college freshmen are escorted by their parents on the enrollment day.Some people claim that it is natural for parents to accompany their kids to college that day,as they want to get to know their children’s school and new environment.Others,however,differ intheir viewpoints,arguing that the demerits of parents’escorting a would-be college student on the enrollment day apparently outweigh its merits.I firmly advocate college freshmen go to the college on their own. First and foremost,as the offspring of a pair of birds leave the nest when they are big enough to fly,it is high time college freshmen learned to be self-reliant at this age.Moreover,without their parents’company,they will be blessed with more chances to mingle and communicate with their fellow students—the very step of a lasting friendship on a new stage of life.In addition,on the enrollment day,most colleges are overburdened with their accommodation for a large army of parents.Such a chaos can be much relieved if college freshmen go to the college by themselves.Test4Directions:For this part,you are allowed30minutes to write a composition on the topic Staying at Home or Going out for Fun.You should write about120words following the Chinese outline below.(1)在闲暇时间，有些年轻人喜欢宅在家里，有些年轻人喜欢出去玩(2)我的选择及理由。

These days,some youngsters enjoy staying at home for their leisure time;others,by contrast,favor going out for fun in their spare time.As for me,I prefer to spend my time off outdoors rather than indoos.Reasons accounting for my preference can be backed by the following arguments.Primarily,outdoor activities,especially travelling, broaden our vision.As a famous saying goes,the world is a book,and those who do not travel only read a leaf.What is more,outdoor sports, especially somewhat adventurous events like bungee,skydiving and parachuting help to mold our characters.And above all,when going out for fun in groups,you can communicate face to face with your intimate friends,a pleasant feeling denied when you are home alone.Based on what has been discussed above,a sound conclusion can be drawn that going out for fun seems a healthier and more favorable option for the young to kill their time.Test5Directions:For this part,you are allowed30minutes to write a composition on the topic Job Hopping.You should write about120 words following the Chinese outline below.(1)现在越来越多大学生毕业后经常换工作；(2)有人表示支持，有人表示反对；(3)我的看法。
