2009年考研英语作文大预测

    Dear Wang Wei,

    Thank you very much for your last letter. It was interesting to read about your graduate studies. I wish I’d be enjoying the same life this time next year.

    Well, as you know, I’m preparing for the National Entrance Tests to Master’s programs, and I’ve got some real problems with my English preparation, for which I do need your advice.

    The first problem is that I simply couldn’t remember all those new words, and they are the No. 1 obstacle to my reading comprehension. It makes me feel much frustrated. Also, short essay writing lets me down a lot. Whenever I come to a writing task, I just don’t know what to say and where to start.

    Please tell me how you solved these problems and passed the test. I’m looking forward to your early replies.

    And best wishes.

    Truly yours,

    Li Ming

    Dear Miss Chang,

    We have planned a house party as a sort of farewell before our trip to Soochow, and we are particularly anxious to have you join us . I hope there is nothing to prevent you from coming out to Canton on February 25th and remaining here with us until the eighth of March.

    Mr. Simpson Chen and Mr. And Mrs. L. T. Ying will be here too, along with several others whom you do not know, but whom I am most anxious to have you meet.

    I am enclosing a time-table for your convenience. And I have checked the two trains that I believe are most convenient for you. If you take the 7:10 in the morning you will arrive here at 11, and there is an earlier train in the morning if you prefer it. If you let me know which train you expect to take, I will see that there shall be a car at the station to meet you.

    Yours truly,

    Li Ming

    The phenomenon of waste is now spreading throughout our country. As shown in the cartoon, a beer festival is being celebrated with the real beer overflowing the fountain, leading many to wonder whether the country has entered an unprecedented era of overall prosperity and whether such wasteful luxury is reasonable and worthwhile.

    Such wasteful behaviors are absolutely undesirable. They are completely incompatible with the tradition of frugality in our country, which has been the unfailing basis of sustained development of Chinese civilization for the past thousands of years. Chinese people have long cherished this glorious virtue and resent any of those wasteful habits, ceremonies, festivals or whatsoever. Besides, while our national economy is growing rapidly and many people are enjoying a quality of life unimaginable before, tens of millions of Chinese still live below the poverty line, not to mention the “financial crisis” that is sweeping across the world.

    We are building a frugal and harmonious society and this is indeed a necessity. Wasteful behavior will do a disservice to our efforts and hinder the realization of this goal. As a consequence, it’s high time for us to remove this bad habit.

    Uncivilized behaviors have always been a problem in our country, and littering is one of them. As vividly depicted in this cartoon, a father is throwing a plastic bottle to the dustbin while his son is imitating his dad, throwing an empty tin to the dustbin. Obviously, both the bottle and the tin will fall short of the dustbin, but two of them, regrettably, seem to have a lot fun of it.

    Littering may save one’s labor in finding the dustbin or walking a little further to the dustbin, but these bits of paper, plastic bags, wrappings, empty bottles and whatsoever scattered around are dirtying our streets, parks, mountain
