2016专四作文真题

2016 Part VI Writing Read carefully the following excerpt on term-time holiday arguments in the UK, and then write your response in NO LESS THAN 200 words, in which you should: ·summarize the main message of the excerpt, and then ·comment on whether parents should take children out of school for holiday during term time in order to save money. You should support yourself with information from the excerpt. Marks will be awarded for content relevance, content sufficiency, origination and language quality. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks. Term-time holidays will be banned Parents are to be banned by Michael Gove, UK’s Education secretary, from taking their children out of school to save money on holidays. He is t abolish the right of head teachers to “authorize absence” from the classroom, which has been used to let families take term-time breads, and will warn them they face fines for their children not being at school. “Any time out of school has the potential to damage a child’s education,” a senior source at the Department for Education said this weekend. “That is why the government will end the distinction between authorized and unauthorized absence.” “This is part of the government’s wider commitment to bring down truancy levels in our schools. There will also be stricter penalties for parents and schools.” The tough measures on truancy are part of a wider attempt by Mr. Gove to make education more academically rigorous and to tackle a culture in the educational establishment which he believes has accepted “excuses for failure”. Russell Hobby, the general secretary of the National Association of Head Teachers, said the measure would discourage parents from trying to put pressure on heads to sanction term time holidays. “The high cost of holidays outside of term time is still an issue but ultimately a child’s education is more important than a holiday,” he said. Write your response on Answer Sheet Three.

2020年中考英语作文专项训练(无答案)

中考英语作文专项训练一、考点分析：在中考中，写作占20分，分值所占比例大，而写作考察学生的英文综合运用能力，因此非常关键。【中考英语作文的评分标准】比较为学生所熟悉的就是“8+8+4”结构，即：（一）内容： 7-8分：内容切题，意思连贯，表达清楚、完整。 5-6分：内容基本切题，意思大致连贯，表达基本清楚、但不够完整。 2-4分：内容不够切题，意思不够连贯，表达不够清楚、有些离题。 0-1分：文不对题，表达不清。（二）语言： ①词数：每少5个字扣0.5分，以此类推。只写出个别单词、词不成句不给分。 ②拼写：每错扣0.5分，同一错误不重复计数。 ③语法：同② ④标点符号、大小写：每两处错误扣0.5分，但扣分总和不超过1分。（三）组织结构： ①内容充实、上下文连贯、用语规范、表达准确、无语法错误；词汇和句型句式运用恰当，多见好句型和习惯表达用语者，可给3-4分。 ②内容充实、不写废话；上下文连贯、用语规范、表达准确、无或少见语法错误；词汇和句型句式运用恰当，多见好句型和习惯表达用语者，可给2分。 ③一般情况下，内容和语言累计得分在15分以上者（含），方可得到1-2分组织结构分。 ④内容和语言在15分以下者，如文中有值得肯定的好句型和表达，可酌情考虑给1分组织结构分。 ⑤通篇句型、句式单一、词汇贫乏者，即使无语法错误，一般也不予给组织结构分。二、写作中常见问题：

①内容空洞，没有清晰的思路，表达能力不强，表达生硬呆板，甚至中式英语翻译思维。 ②议论过多，描写不足。大多数情况下，把议论当成的作文的重点，常常跑题。 ③句式单一，都是简单句，缺少复合句。 ④结构散漫，思维跳跃，文章缺乏条理性。 ⑤连词的使用较少，并且使用单一，句子之间的连接很生硬。 ⑥文章平淡，无亮点短语和句型，连接词等。三、写作技巧分析：【高分作文的必备元素】 1. 书写工整，书面整洁，很少有涂改痕迹。 2. 不出现语法，拼写，标点，大小写等错误。 3. 文章字数最好控制在80-100字之间，切记过长或者过短，8-10句即可。 4. 要点齐全。为了避免遗漏要点，可以将题目中给出的要点标注出来。 5. 开头言简意赅，不啰嗦，不偏题，迅速引入主题。 6. 连接词使用恰当，不重复，上下文有连贯性，使之自然成一体。 7. 应用词汇: 高级词汇的合理使用、同义词的变化使用、短语的恰当使用。 8. 多用亮点短语，并且使短语多样性，尽可能使用多种表达方式。比如：同一个意思“帮助”，假如你就用一个动词“help”，显得词汇贫乏。如果能在作文中不断地变换方式，用help、give sb. a hand、do sb. a favor、be in need of 等以表达“帮助”，表达更灵活生动。 9.句式多样性，可适当使用陈述句，疑问句，祈使句及感叹句，强调句，倒装句，定语从句，状语从句，宾语从句等。 10. 能够恰当使用谚语、格言、名言等给文章添彩。 11. 语法结构多样性,主动被动交叉用，原级比较级灵活用，非谓语动词恰当用。 12.灵活使用万能句型，增添文章亮点。四、中考经典范文解读： VII.

Synthesis Writing On the research of Fluorine Harm and the Countermeasures Against Fluorine Pollution in China Great achievements have been achieved in the research of Fluorine Harm and the Countermeasures Against Fluorine Pollution in China. In his article entitled Fluorine Harm and Control, published in Chinese Journal of Ecology in 2000, Professor Jiao You states his research results. He analyzes that the F harm on plants, soil microbes and human health, and introduces the geographic distribution of the areas with high F water and the statas of F epidemic areas. Finally, he presents the methods of controlling F harm and testing F in soil. In her article entitled Research Progress of Migration and Transformation Laws of Fluorine in Groundwater-soil-plant System, published in Safety and Environmental Engineering in 2013, Professor Yi Chunyao thinks that Fluoride is distributed universally throughout soils, water, living beings and air in our planet and can be transported and accumulated through the link of water-soil-plant-air-animal system to cause a series of problems of environmental pollution and human health. She focuses on the source-speciation characteristics and influencing factors of fluoride in soil, proposes the future research directions in the migration and transformation laws of fluorine in water-soil-plant system are to provide a new way for the further study. Furthermore, Professor Zhang Qiangguo summarizes the harm of overfluorine to human body, atomosphere, soil and animals and plants, which entitled The Countermeasures against Fluorine Harm and Fluorine Pollution, published in Journal of chongqing university of science and technology natural science edition in 2005, he describes the status quo of fluorine pollution in Chongqing, and sums up the solutions and measures for various fluorine pollution home and abroad, and puts forward some effective solutions to this problem. From the above, we can see that although the research on Fluorine Harm and the Countermeasures Against Fluorine Pollution has achieved great achievements, there are still some challenges to overcome, so we should work hard to further this research.

TEM-2011:Should private car owners be taxed for pollution? With the development of society, many people can afford a car. As the number of the cars is rising, we are facing some problems.One big problem is the pollution caused by the use of cars. In order to solve this problem, government agencies in some big cities recently suggest that a “ pollution tax ” should be put on private cars in order to control the number of cars and reduce pollution in the city. For my part, I agree to this viewpoint, and my reasons are as follows: To begin with, cars contribute to the environmental pollution. For example, a lot of big cities in China are now plagued by serious air pollution. Then it is the responsibility of these private car owners to pay for the pollution and they should be taxed. The purpose of collecting environmental pollution tax is to raise the fund, and then utilize the tax revenue lever to protect our environment. Secondly, it is a good way to raise people ’ s environmental awareness by putting a pollution tax on private cars. If people suffer from the financial loss when making a decision, they will think more about their decision. Then they will consider more when deciding to buy a private car. Consequently, the increase rate of the number of the private cars can be controlled. In a word, it is a very good and necessary attempt to use the means of taxation to treat the pollution. Of course, it must be kept in mind that all people, including the private car owners, should try their best to protect the environment. 272words TEM-2010: Should College Students Hire Cleaners? According to a recent report, six university students hired cleaners to clean their dorm and do their laundry every week. Although we have no right to tell them what to do with their money, as a university student myself, I find this practice absurd. For a start, away from our parents, it is in university that we learn to be independent adults. Cleaning the room and doing one ’ s laundry are the most
