实例分析：任务写作：该不该迫使孩子学习他们不感兴趣的才艺
培养孩子的兴趣爱好是非常必要的，但现在有很多家长一味地追求子女的多才多艺，迫使孩子学习他们不感兴趣的东西，请你以大约120个词谈谈对这种现象的看法，内容包括：
(1) 你是否赞同上述家长的做法；
(2) 以你或你朋友的经历说明你的观点；
(3) 呼吁家长们要尊重孩子的意愿。
范文：
Today ’s children are lucky to have many opportunities to develop their talents. But on the other hand, a lot of parents push their children too hard. (26 words)
In that case, I don ’t envy them. It is true that good hobbies make life more colorful and enjoyable. However, things are different if children take no interest in the “hobby ” that their parents choose for them. Without interest as motivation, they find it a burden rather than a hobby. My 6-year-old neighbor often cries while practicing the piano. She is busier on weekends than on weekdays because she has to attend many extracurricular activities. Her mother complains that she even sleeps in class.
Therefore, parents should see the bad effects from their over-effort to cultivate children’s talents. Parents are supposed to help children learn what they are interested in. Only in this way can they learn well and be happy! (121 words)

范文：
Yesterday afternoon, our class had a heated discussion on “Which is more important, wealth or health? ” and different students had different opinions. Some students prefer wealth, believing that money can not bring everything, but without it, one can do nothing. In order to earn more money, they can do anything. However, other students regard health as more important because they think that once health is lost, it is no use having a lot of money. As far as I am concerned, I love wealth, but I value health more because if happiness and comfort are achieved at the cost of their health, we can’t be happy and without health money becomes meaningless.

范文：
The passage implies that it is important to be a good sports spectator. It also advises audiences to control themselves during games, to be careful with their words and applaud warmly and properly.
To be a good spectator, you should take time to learn the game-specific rules and related culture of each event. Enjoying artistic gymnastics requires silence and mobile phones are not allowed in shooting centers, because the noises you make will certainly distract the athletes ’ concentration, which will cause them to fail in the game.
If I were the athlete who was annoyed by the audiences, I would be unhappy and upset. I might even play badly and finally lost the game. Besides, I would complain to the referee about the noises.
In my opinion, the audience who annoy the players in games should be punished. That’s because not only do they break the rules for spectators, but also their bad behavior would lead to the players’ failure in the game.

词汇：independent enrollment 自主招生 overall development 全面发展 范文：
These years, independent enrollment is more and more popular and it has caused a heated debate. People’s views on that vary from person to person.
Many people support it. To begin with, it provides both colleges and students an extra opportunity. All outstanding students have easier access to their dream universities without too much worry. For the universities, they can enroll talented students in another way. To continue with, the new policy encourages students to have overall development instead of only paying attention to scores. At the same time, it can also reduce the enormous stress of the college entrance examination effectively.
However, many others disapprove of the policy. In their opinion, many rich and powerful parents will make use of their power and money to get a chance for their children, which is totally unfair to other students. Also, in order to prepare for it, you have to spend much money and time on it while only a few will succeed. It’s not worthwhile at all.
Personally, I am for the reform. For one thing, it means college entrance exams are not the only way to get access to university. Two chances are always better than one. For another, it will be beneficial to both colleges and students as long as it is carried out properly.

阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
As we all know, life is full of dreams and having a good dream is of great importance in our daily life. Without a good dream, people can’t make progress; without a good dream, countries can’t develop; without a good dream, the world can’t
20 become so beautiful! And I hold the strong belief that everyone, whether he is old or young, poor or rich, junior or senior, does have a good dream! After all, dreaming is certainly a positive part of our life, and wishing for good things, however, costs nothing!
What’s more, it is important to fly our dreams, especially for those who are Senior 3 students. It is high time for them to fly their dreams. If they can’t let out dreams fly, the dream would just be a dream, not reality!
Therefore, it is no wonder that so many people have a dream since their childhood. With a nice dream, China succeeded to host the 29th Olympic Games in 2008; with a nice dream, Hongkong returned to the motherland peacefully in 1997; with a nice dream, Yuan Longping rids the world of hunger; with a nice dream, Michael Jordon becomes the most popular basketball star; with a nice dream I can stand on this stage to compete in the final English speech contest. And with an aim of achieving success, I must do the best!
So my good friends, if you want to realize your dream, please do not be afraid in face of difficulties or give up in face of failure nor lose your dream in face of pains. You must keep going forward bravely! Just fly your dream highly above the sky!

范文：
Dreams play an important role in our daily life and a good dream is the motivation to success. To realize a dream, one should learn to defeat difficulties through constant struggles as well as persistence.
Like most people, there was a time when I dreamed of being an excellent student in my English after entering junior middle school, though my English was very poor then. To catch up with my classmates, I made up my mind to learn English well and made pen-friends with some foreign students so as to practice my spoken English and improve my written English. Although some of my classmates often went to the movies in the evening, seldom did I take part in such activities. Instead, I set aside to concentrate on my English and won the Final English Speech Contest around the city this term, realizing my dream.
Now, I also have a dream. As a Senior 3 student, I hope that I can be admitted to a key university after graduation from middle school. Of course, whether my dream will come true depends on my personal efforts. Although life is full of ups and downs, I choose to go forward bravely. I strongly believe that where there is a dream, there is hope and there is a way.

Dear Editor,
I'm a senior high school student named Li Hua. Now many students have iPads and think it's a fashion to use them. Using an iPad, we can listen to music, download a lot of learning materials and read them on the screen. Apparently, it's helpful to our study, especially to our English listening.
Some students, however, bring their iPads to the classroom and listen to music without earphones, which makes the teacher and other students greatly annoyed. Some of them even waste precious time in class playing video games.
In my opinion, as students, we should make good use of iPads to help achieve academic success. The classroom is a place for students to study, and therefore concentration is awfully needed for us to learn our lessons. Furthermore, the school should make a rule to guide the students to use iPads in a proper way.
Yours sincerely, Li Hua

To stay away from the disease, I strongly suggest you doing the following things. Firstly, you’d better stay at home as much as possible and not go to places where there are many people.

Dear Mike，
Thank you very much for your concern. Last months several places in Beijing were blanketed with thick yellow fog. Everything around disappeared from our sight. Some highways were closed. Traffic jams were commonly seen in the streets. Many people, especially children and seniors, even found it difficult to breathe. As a result, local hospitals were crowded with people who had problems with their noses and lungs. Part of the cause was the dry weather, but the severely damaged environment contributed a lot to this nightmare. Personally I didn’t get any health problems in the haze because I stayed mostly indoors. But to make a significant change we really have to do more to protect our environment. To live a better life we have to push on with the economy, but it wound be meaningless if we have to achieve it at the cost of our breathing air.
Best wishes!

How to Build an Economized Society
Our government is aiming to build an “economized society”. I think it is every citizen ’s duty to work hard to achieve this goal.
Firstly, we know that many restaurants have joined the “clear your plate ” campaign against wasting food. We students should do the same in our daily life especially when having dinner with our friends and relatives. It is a good virtue for us
26 to do so. Secondly, make sure that the lights and all the other electric facilities are turned off when we finish our work and leave the room. Also it is important to form the habit of turning off the tap after it is used. Saving energy is also saving ourselves.
In a word, if we pay much attention to our everyday behavior and take actions to reduce waste, we can make contributions to an economized society. Let ’s work together from now on!
2. “光盘行动”书面表达二
近来，“光盘行动”悄然流行， 这一行动引导崇尚节约，反对浪费的社会风气。其实在我们的校园生活中也存在一些浪费现象。请简述几个浪费现象，并就如何厉行节约、反对浪费，谈谈你的看法和建议。
参考范文：
Recently, “clear your plate ” campaign is more and more popular in society, which advocates saving against wasting. The campaign draws our attention to wasting on campus. Some students are noticed to throw away a lot of food in the canteen. As is often the case, some lights are still on with nobody in classrooms. What ’s more, many a student spends much money buying unnecessary items.
As far as I am concerned, it’s high time that we fought against wasting. Here’re my suggestions. Firstly, I think our school should carry out various activities to arouse students ’ awareness of saving. Secondly, relevant rules and regulations are supposed to be made to punish those who waste things. Most importantly, we should form the habit of saving from now.

最近的一项调査显示，我国每年餐桌上浪费的食物髙达2000亿元，相当于2亿多人一年的口粮. 近日，某英语报以Join in the “Clean Your Plate” Campaign为题向中学生征文。请根据提示, 用英语写一篇短文应征，内容包括： 1、浪费的原因；2、浪费的后果；3、对“光盘”行动的看法；4、对“光盘”行动所采取的措施。
参考范文：
Join in the “Clean Your Plate” Campaign
We often see people waste food because they order too much for their meals, or the food is not delicious enough or not properly kept.
A survey indicates each year China wastes 200 billion Yuan worth of food, which is enough to feed over 200 million people.
Food waste means wasting money as well as wasting precious resources. When food is thrown away, it becomes rubbish which can be harmful to the environment and people’s health.
It ’s meaningful to join in the “Clean Your Plate” Campaign, which helps us realize how difficult it is for a grain of rice to come on our plate an how important it is to save food. It ’s wise to order a proper amount of food for our meals. If there ’re leftovers, it’s better to take them home. To save food, we should start with ourselves and start from now.

This is because reading aloud, which is the basis of memory, can make the sound, form and meaning of an English word strengthened and consolidated. Therefore, the linguist suggested that for thirty minutes or an hour in the morning we should read English words, passages, poems and texts, recite famous English sayings and mottos and even sing English songs.

实例分析：任务写作：该不该迫使孩子学习他们不感兴趣的才艺
培养孩子的兴趣爱好是非常必要的，但现在有很多家长一味地追求子女的多才多艺，迫使孩子学习他们不感兴趣的东西，请你以大约120个词谈谈对这种现象的看法，内容包括：
(1) 你是否赞同上述家长的做法；

(3) 呼吁家长们要尊重孩子的意愿。
范文：
Today ’s children are lucky to have many opportunities to develop their talents. But on the other hand, a lot of parents push their children too hard. (26 words)
In that case, I don ’t envy them. It is true that good hobbies make life more colorful and enjoyable. However, things are different if children take no interest in the “hobby ” that their parents choose for them. Without interest as motivation, they find it a burden rather than a hobby. My 6-year-old neighbor often cries while practicing the piano. She is busier on weekends than on weekdays because she has to attend many extracurricular activities. Her mother complains that she even sleeps in class.
Therefore, parents should see the bad effects from their over-effort to cultivate children’s talents. Parents are supposed to help children learn what they are interested in. Only in this way can they learn well and be happy! (121 words)

Yesterday afternoon, our class had a heated discussion on “Which is more important, wealth or health? ” and different students had different opinions. Some students prefer wealth, believing that money can not bring everything, but without it, one can do nothing. In order to earn more money, they can do anything. However, other students regard health as more important because they think that once health is lost, it is no use having a lot of money. As far as I am concerned, I love wealth, but I value health more because if happiness and comfort are achieved at the cost of their health, we can’t be happy and without health money becomes meaningless.

范文：
The passage implies that it is important to be a good sports spectator. It also advises audiences to control themselves during games, to be careful with their words and applaud warmly and properly.
To be a good spectator, you should take time to learn the game-specific rules and related culture of each event. Enjoying artistic gymnastics requires silence and mobile phones are not allowed in shooting centers, because the noises you make will certainly distract the athletes ’ concentration, which will cause them to fail in the game.
If I were the athlete who was annoyed by the audiences, I would be unhappy and upset. I might even play badly and finally lost the game. Besides, I would complain to the referee about the noises.
In my opinion, the audience who annoy the players in games should be punished. That’s because not only do they break the rules for spectators, but also their bad behavior would lead to the players’ failure in the game.

词汇：independent enrollment 自主招生 overall development 全面发展 范文：
These years, independent enrollment is more and more popular and it has caused a heated debate. People’s views on that vary from person to person.
Many people support it. To begin with, it provides both colleges and students an extra opportunity. All outstanding students have easier access to their dream universities without too much worry. For the universities, they can enroll talented students in another way. To continue with, the new policy encourages students to have overall development instead of only paying attention to scores. At the same time, it can also reduce the enormous stress of the college entrance examination effectively.
However, many others disapprove of the policy. In their opinion, many rich and powerful parents will make use of their power and money to get a chance for their children, which is totally unfair to other students. Also, in order to prepare for it, you have to spend much money and time on it while only a few will succeed. It’s not worthwhile at all.
Personally, I am for the reform. For one thing, it means college entrance exams are not the only way to get access to university. Two chances are always better than one. For another, it will be beneficial to both colleges and students as long as it is carried out properly.

阅读下面的短文，然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。
As we all know, life is full of dreams and having a good dream is of great importance in our daily life. Without a good dream, people can’t make progress; without a good dream, countries can’t develop; without a good dream, the world can’t
20 become so beautiful! And I hold the strong belief that everyone, whether he is old or young, poor or rich, junior or senior, does have a good dream! After all, dreaming is certainly a positive part of our life, and wishing for good things, however, costs nothing!
What’s more, it is important to fly our dreams, especially for those who are Senior 3 students. It is high time for them to fly their dreams. If they can’t let out dreams fly, the dream would just be a dream, not reality!
Therefore, it is no wonder that so many people have a dream since their childhood. With a nice dream, China succeeded to host the 29th Olympic Games in 2008; with a nice dream, Hongkong returned to the motherland peacefully in 1997; with a nice dream, Yuan Longping rids the world of hunger; with a nice dream, Michael Jordon becomes the most popular basketball star; with a nice dream I can stand on this stage to compete in the final English speech contest. And with an aim of achieving success, I must do the best!
So my good friends, if you want to realize your dream, please do not be afraid in face of difficulties or give up in face of failure nor lose your dream in face of pains. You must keep going forward bravely! Just fly your dream highly above the sky!

范文：
Dreams play an important role in our daily life and a good dream is the motivation to success. To realize a dream, one should learn to defeat difficulties through constant struggles as well as persistence.
Like most people, there was a time when I dreamed of being an excellent student in my English after entering junior middle school, though my English was very poor then. To catch up with my classmates, I made up my mind to learn English well and made pen-friends with some foreign students so as to practice my spoken English and improve my written English. Although some of my classmates often went to the movies in the evening, seldom did I take part in such activities. Instead, I set aside to concentrate on my English and won the Final English Speech Contest around the city this term, realizing my dream.
Now, I also have a dream. As a Senior 3 student, I hope that I can be admitted to a key university after graduation from middle school. Of course, whether my dream will come true depends on my personal efforts. Although life is full of ups and downs, I choose to go forward bravely. I strongly believe that where there is a dream, there is hope and there is a way.

Dear Editor,
I'm a senior high school student named Li Hua. Now many students have iPads and think it's a fashion to use them. Using an iPad, we can listen to music, download a lot of learning materials and read them on the screen. Apparently, it's helpful to our study, especially to our English listening.
Some students, however, bring their iPads to the classroom and listen to music without earphones, which makes the teacher and other students greatly annoyed. Some of them even waste precious time in class playing video games.
In my opinion, as students, we should make good use of iPads to help achieve academic success. The classroom is a place for students to study, and therefore concentration is awfully needed for us to learn our lessons. Furthermore, the school should make a rule to guide the students to use iPads in a proper way.
Yours sincerely, Li Hua

To stay away from the disease, I strongly suggest you doing the following things. Firstly, you’d better stay at home as much as possible and not go to places where there are many people.

Dear Mike，
Thank you very much for your concern. Last months several places in Beijing were blanketed with thick yellow fog. Everything around disappeared from our sight. Some highways were closed. Traffic jams were commonly seen in the streets. Many people, especially children and seniors, even found it difficult to breathe. As a result, local hospitals were crowded with people who had problems with their noses and lungs. Part of the cause was the dry weather, but the severely damaged environment contributed a lot to this nightmare. Personally I didn’t get any health problems in the haze because I stayed mostly indoors. But to make a significant change we really have to do more to protect our environment. To live a better life we have to push on with the economy, but it wound be meaningless if we have to achieve it at the cost of our breathing air.
Best wishes!

Firstly, we know that many restaurants have joined the “clear your plate ” campaign against wasting food. We students should do the same in our daily life especially when having dinner with our friends and relatives. It is a good virtue for us
26 to do so. Secondly, make sure that the lights and all the other electric facilities are turned off when we finish our work and leave the room. Also it is important to form the habit of turning off the tap after it is used. Saving energy is also saving ourselves.

Recently, “clear your plate ” campaign is more and more popular in society, which advocates saving against wasting. The campaign draws our attention to wasting on campus. Some students are noticed to throw away a lot of food in the canteen. As is often the case, some lights are still on with nobody in classrooms. What ’s more, many a student spends much money buying unnecessary items.
As far as I am concerned, it’s high time that we fought against wasting. Here’re my suggestions. Firstly, I think our school should carry out various activities to arouse students ’ awareness of saving. Secondly, relevant rules and regulations are supposed to be made to punish those who waste things. Most importantly, we should form the habit of saving from now. It is everybody’s duty to save resources.

Join in the “Clean Your Plate” Campaign
We often see people waste food because they order too much for their meals, or the food is not delicious enough or not properly kept.
A survey indicates each year China wastes 200 billion Yuan worth of food, which is enough to feed over 200 million people.
Food waste means wasting money as well as wasting precious resources. When food is thrown away, it becomes rubbish which can be harmful to the environment and people’s health.
It ’s meaningful to join in the “Clean Your Plate” Campaign, which helps us realize how difficult it is for a grain of rice to come on our plate an how important it is to save food. It ’s wise to order a proper amount of food for our meals. If there ’re leftovers, it’s better to take them home. To save food, we should start with ourselves and start from now.
