英语四级写作模板 Sample writing Writing 3 The Value of time Time is precious. A famous Chinese saying goes like this: “A second of time cannot be purchased with an ounce of gold.” Time is so valuable that nothing can buy it. The lost time will never come back; therefore. We should cherish time. Waste of time can mean disasters. Many people have been wasting their time all the time. Some high school or college students squander almost their time watching TV, playing video games, singing pop songs, idolizing pop stars, and so on and so forth. As a result, they fail to pass the university entrance examination or the job interview. Apparently, we should devote most of our time to useful activities. For example, students can use the early morning for physical exercise or academic studies instead of lying in bed, looking at the ceiling. In the classroom we should concentrate on/focus on what the teacher presents and take quick notes. Concentration in class can save a lot of time after class. In short, if we spend our time wisely, we shall benefit a great deal. Writing 2 Youth Youth is a golden age in our lives, often compared to the rising sun. Young people are full of vigor and vitality, which arouse the most pleasurable emotions, such as first love. Youth is also an age of awakening, when the world looks new and feels mysteriously alive. We should try to accomplish something when young. Youth is a good time for learning, especially for acquiring more and more knowledge. We should sensitive to everything, and we should make full use of our youth to lay a good foundation for the future, which can then be truly successful. Sometimes we hear our elders remark about our young people, “Youth is always wasted on the young.” What they principally refer to is youth’s lack of awareness of the passage of the time. What wise advice! If we waste our youth, we will never regain it. If we treasure it, we can say when we become old that the days of our youth have been lived to their fullnest. Writing 4 The importance of Confidence Whatever one does, one should do it with confidence. If one has no confidence, there is little possibility that one would ever achieve anything, especially when one is faced with drawbacks or hardships. This truth seems to be self-evident. However, in reality we do see a lot of people who complain that they lack the ability to do something or that their difficulties are too great to overcome. For some, this might be true. But for many others, this only shows that they have lost heart. Why do people often feel frustrated even though they are capable of doing something? There are, among others, two main reasons. First, these people do not have a correct estimate of themselves. Second, they overestimate the difficulties. It is possible to build up faith in oneself by having the right attitude towards one’s own abilities. We should never underestimate our abilities but should believe in the proverb: “where there is will. there is a way.” Confidence is the premise for fulfilling a task successfully. Writing 1 Computers The computer is a wonderful machine. It is the most important invention in many years. Today it is used a great deal in many ways. Up to now the computer have probably touched the lives of everyone, even people in remote villages. Computers can do many kinds of work. For example, in a big shop, information about a sale is put into a computer. During the night the computer works on the information from all the sales that day. The next morning the manager has a report on everything that was sold and also on everything that will soon be sold out. In scientific researches, a scientist can “ask” the computer questions, and the computer “answer” on the screen. It is almost like talking to another scientist. In education, computers are used to assist the teaching. By means of modern multimedia technology, more and more information can be provided in class, which help the students learn and master more knowledge and have all-round development. In the last few years, there have been great changes in computers. They now can do most of the things people can do, though most scientists agree that computers cannot take the place of humans. Who knows what computers of tomorrow will be like? Will they make life better, or will they ring suffering to people? People of today will have to decide how to use the computers of tomorrow.
