First and foremost, working as civil servants in China is relatively stable, and Chinese people have a traditional preference for maintaining a life-long career. The rising interest could also be attributed to the unique social status. Comparatively speaking , civil servants are generally highly respected by common people in China. Last, we should not neglect the benefits such as the welfare in government departments.Compared with the striking number of applicants for becoming civil servants, the vacancies issued by the government are scarce. Thus, it is suggested that applicants should weigh their own advantages andSample 2 College Students’ Booklist1.这是一所大学里学生所购书籍的变化2.你对于学生选择书记类别变化的评价3.哪类书籍你买得比较多说明原因.The table shows the changes ofstudents’ choices of various kinds of books from1985 to 2005. Obviously enough, the number of novels and books of philosophy and society has declined gradually, with that of foreign languages books and computer science ones enjoying much more popularity.Though different readers have their own particular tastes, thisphenomenon involves several complicated factors. Firstly, nowadays, most of the college students tend to buy more books concerning foreign languages learning and computer-science, mainly because there is a pressing need of foreign languages and computer skills for their future employment. Secondly, novels are still popular though the selling number decreased thanks to the availability of the Internet.

You should write at least 120 words, and base your composition on the table and the outline given below:1、根据上表，简要描述1990年、1995年、2000年某城市人们度假方式的情况及其变化；2、请说明发生这些变化的原因；3、得出结论。

How People Spend Their HolidaysAs is clearly shown in the table that there was a dramatic change in the way people spent their holidays between 1990 and 2000. Especially, in 1990, 63% of people spent their holidays at home, while the figure decreased considerably to 24% in 2000. there are three reasons for this phenomenon.To begin with, with the development of market-oriented economy, people earn by far more money than they used to, making it possible for them to afford traveling expenses. In addition, people realize the importance of getting well-informed about the outside world in this modern era to develop their potential. For example, a traveller may encounter or talk with someone of a different cultural background so as to broaden his vision. Last but not least, by traveling outside, people are close to nature, which is not only beneficial to both their health and peace of mind. In short, more and more people take the occasion of holiday to travel outside and relax themselves.As far as I am concerned, I prefer to go traveling instead of staying at home during holidays. On the one hand, I love meeting different people and take in some fresh ideas. On the other hand, it is agreed that the world is becoming a global village. No one could confine himself within his small circle of families or relatives. In brief, I have benefited a lot and will benefit more from traveling during the holidays.Sample 4 Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay entitled Blog. You should write at least 120 words based on thechart and outline given below:下图是2007年1-10月中国博客服务人均月度有效浏览时间及增长率，描述变化，说明原因。

BlogThis histogram shows the number of people using blog services from January to October in 2007. From it we can see that the number of users increased monthly from January to August, except February. After two peak months, July and August, the number dropped slightly in September, while in October it picked up again.Possible reasons for these changes are first, in February Chinese people celebrated the most important festival——Chinese New Year. This means more people spent more time with their families and friends, and therefore they didn’t ha ve as much time for surfing online. Secondly, college students are the main users of blog services. While in July and August，they had summer holidays, which enabled them to have more spare time reading and writing blogs. Thirdly, with improvements of blog services and the influence of some “star bloggers”, most of whom are celebrities, blogs are becoming an important way for people to express themselves and communicate with others. So more and more people are starting to use these services, which help explain the overall increase shown here. Sample 5 Directions:1.上图所示为我国吸毒者年龄分布情况，请描述其变化2.请说明发生这些变化的原因3.这一变化对社会和个人的影响As can be seen from the graph, there have been sharp changes in the age distribution of drug addicts. To be concrete, the teenage addicts only made up 10 percent of all the drugsters in 1982 while the ratio rose up to 65 in 2002.The causes for them a re not hard to find. First , teenagers’ fearless curiosity about everything new has led some of them into this marsh. Second, many of the young addicts turned for the first time to drugs for escape either from their failure in the national entrance exams or from their parents’ breakup. And above all, our education in the harmfulness of drugs has been far from adequate to build teenagers’ sound resistance to drugs. To sum up, the causes mentioned above must call for more of our concern, and effective measures should be taken to check the trend.Obviously the drastic change will exert great impact on individuals and the whole society. For one thing, drug-taking does great damage to the health of drug users.. For another, some drug users commit robbery or even murder their parents and relatives to get money to buy drugs, which poses a great threat to the social security and the social stability. Therefore, it is high time we did something to put an end to this trend.Sample 6 Directions:For this part, you are required to write a composition about 120 words on the topic: Changes in People’s Daily Expenses. Your composition should be written on the following table and Chinese given below.1.描述图表中人们每天开支变化情况2.请说明发生这些变化的原因3.结合图表对未来作出合理的预测Cha nges in People’s Daily ExpensesWhat is shown in the table above indicates that dramatic changes have taken place in the people’s daily expenses from 1995 to 1999. The expenses on food have declined by 30% while those on clothing and recreation have increased respectively by 9% and 7% . The statistics of rise and fall seem to exist in isolation but closely related to one another .There are two factors accounting for these changes. Development in economy is an essential one in the five years. The increased income resulting from economic growth plays an important part in the less expense on food. Hence, a small percentage of total income is enough to cover food expense. Another one is the changes in life style. When food presents no worry to the average, people begin to focus more of interest on handsome appearance and happy leisure time . As a result of such a shift, spending on clothing and recreation increases year after year.From the analyses made above, we may come to the conclusion that people’s living standards hav e been constantly improved between 1995 and 1999. With the further growth in economy and more changes in life style, the tendency indicated in the table will continue in the better direction.Sample 7 Directions: For this part you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic :Cell Phones .You should write no less than 120 words and base your composition on the outline below:1.描述上图所示的手机用户数的变化情况2.出现这种情况的原因3.对此现象作出评价Cell PhonesAs is shown in the chart, cell phones are becoming increasingly popular within China.

And in the year 2005, the number has suddenly soared to 9 million.There are many factors contributing to this development. Firstly, a cell phone has no wires and can be carried everywhere easily. Secondly, a cell phone is something wonderful that we can have fun with news, games, music and chat through sending short messages. Thirdly, the drop in price and the simultaneous improvement in the functions have made it possible for an average person to make use of cell phone.The wide use of cell phones has make them more and more indispensable in people’s daily life. The many functions of the cell phone have made certain people reluctant to separate themselves from their cell phone.Sample 8Directions：Study the following table carefully and write an essay of at least 150 words. Your essay must be written on Answer SheetYour essay should meet the requirements below.1. Changes in people’s daily expenses in the past five years；2. Give possible reasons for the changes.3. Draw my own conclusionsChanges in people’s daily expensesIn the past five years, there have been great changes in people’s daily expenses in XX city. According to the figures given in the table, the amount of money spent on food decreased gradually, accounting for 35 per cent in 1998. However, there was a rapid increase in clothing expenses, which made up 17% in 1998. In addition, the table shows an upward tendency in recreation expenses. The same was the case with other expenses.What caused these remarkable changes In my opinion, there are at least three good reasons. To begin with, with the rapid development of agriculture in China, the output of grain, fruit, vegetables, and milk has sharply increased, which contributes to the decline in their prices. Secondly, the family incomes of people both in the city and in the country have greatly risen so that people now can afford expensive clothing and some of them even want to dress in the latest fashion. Finally, as the living conditions improve, the demand for a variety of recreations is growing steadily, too.In short, with the incomes rising continuously, people are no longer reconciled to living a simple, monotonous life. They are eager to make their life interesting and exciting. Therefore, I am sure that people will spend more money on clothing and recreations.
