题目

Recently you read a book about a place. Some  information about the place is incorrect.

You need to write:

●     Why/how  do you know this place?

●     What  is the incorrect information?

●     Why  it is important to correct the wrong information?

范文

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to tell you that the book  published by Shanghai Foreign Language Education Press has a problem. The  name of the book is Theme Park written by Ken Beatty. In Page 27, there is a  headline “Five themed lands”, followed by the paragraph that introduces five  Disney lands respectively.

But in fact there are altogether six Disney  Lands nowadays because in 2006 Shanghai has established and opened a new  Disney park which I have just paid a visit last month. I know the new park  through local news and word of mouth. Both broadcasters and my friends think  highly of it.

To correct the figure from five to six Disney  Lands is of significance because it will attract more tourists from home and  abroad to my hometown, Shanghai. Therefore, our economy will be much stronger  and culture will be much more diversified and Shanghai will enjoy a better  development.

Yours Sincerely,

Yolanda.

题目

Some people believe that one should not  be allowed to work after the age of 65, others believe that they should be  allowed to work for as long as they want. Discuss both views and give your  own opinion.

范文

Opinions are divided over the issue of  retirement. In the essay, two major and opposite views will be fully  expounded.

Some argue that the age of sixty five  should be the limit to working. First and foremost, seniors above sixty five  won’t have enough strength and energies to continue the hard work of sitting  about six or seven hours in front of computers, let alone physical labor.  What’s more, earlier retirement of the elders means more job vacancies for  the youngsters who otherwise have no opportunities to flex their muscles. Low  employment rates may bring a large group of vigorous young people idling  around doing nothing. Last but not least, the aged can stay in home, looking  after their grandchildren for the parents who have to work all the money to  earn more bread.

Others, however, insist that people  should be given full rights when it comes the issue of retirement. Occupation  provides senior citizens an opportunity to give full play to their abilities,  so that they could feel still needed and valued by the society. More  importantly, by keeping the position, the aged are able to pass on their  experience to the callow who can stand on the shoulders of predecessors  rather than do research on what have already been discovered. Another more  practical reason for elders to continue working is to lessen the financial  burden for the families because young parents could at least set aside no  money for the aged.

In a nutshell, it depends totally on  the seniors to determine whether to abandon working or not and when to go  back home entirely, after them taking into account factors such as the mental  and physical health of individuals, the needs of the corporations and the  demands of the families.
