1 If I Were a Boy Again

If I were a boy again, I would practise perseverance oftener, and never give up a thing because it was hard or inconvenient. If we want light, we must conquer darkness. Perseverance can sometimes equal genius in its results. "There are only two creatures," says a proverb, "who can surmount the pyramids—the eagle and the snail."

If I were a boy again, I would school myself into a habit of attention; 1 would let nothing come between me and the 假如我再回到童年 假如我再回到童年，我會更多地培養(yǎng)自己的毅力，決不因為事情艱難或麻煩而放棄不干。如果我們要光明，我們就得征服黑暗。在產(chǎn)生的結(jié)果方面，毅力往往可以與天才相媲美。諺語說：?能登上金字塔的生物只有兩種——雄鷹與蝸牛。? 假如我再回到童年，我會培養(yǎng)自己專心致志的習(xí)慣；一旦手頭有事，決不讓任何東西使我分心。我會牢記：一位優(yōu)秀的溜冰手從不試圖同時滑向兩個不同的方向。subject in hand. I would remember that a good skater never tries to skate in two directions at once. The habit of attention becomes part of our life, if we begin early enough. I often hear grown-up people say, "I could not fix my attention on the lecture or book, although I wished to do so," and the reason is, the habit was not formed in youth.

If I were to live my life over again, I would pay more attention to the cultivation of the memory. I would strengthen that faculty by every possible means, and on every possible occasion. It takes a little hard work at first to remember things accurately; but memory soon helps itself, and gives very little trouble. It only needs early cultivation to become a power.

If I were a boy again, I would look on the cheerful side. Life is very much like a mirror: if you smile upon it, it smiles back upon you; but if you frown and look doubtful on it, you will get a similar look in return.Inner sunshine warms not only the heart of the owner, but of all that come in contact with it. "Who shuts love out, in turn shall be shut from love."

If I were a boy again, 1 would school myself to say 'No' oftener. 1 might write pages on the importance of learning very early in life to gain that point where a young boy can stand erect, and decline doing an unworthy act because it is unworthy.

If I were a boy again, I would demand of myself more courtesy towards my companions and friends, and indeed towards strangers as well. The smallest courtesies along the rough roads of life are life the little birds that sing to us all winter long, and make that season of ice and snow more endurable.

Finally, instead of trying hard to be happy, as if that were the sole purpose of life, if I were a boy again, try still harder to make others happy.

如果及早養(yǎng)成專心致志的習(xí)慣，它就會成為我們生命的一個部分。我常常聽到成年人說：?我希望中注意力聽演講或讀書，但往往做不到。?其原因就在于年輕時沒有養(yǎng)成這種習(xí)慣。 假如我能重新活過，我會更加注意培養(yǎng)自己的記憶力。我要采取一切可能的辦法，在一切可能的場合，增強記憶力。要精確地記住一切事物，起初的確要做出一番小小的努力；但用不了多久，記憶力本身就會起作用，使記憶成為輕而易舉的事。只需及早培養(yǎng)，記憶自會成為一種才能。 假如我再回到童年，我會凡事都看光明的一面。生活就像一面鏡子：你朝它微笑，它也會朝你微笑；但如果你朝它皺眉頭，它也會朝你皺眉頭；如果你用懷疑的目光看待它，它也會以同樣懷疑的目光看待你。內(nèi)心的陽光不僅溫暖了自己的心，同時也溫暖了所有跟他接觸的人的心。?誰將愛拒之門外，誰就會被愛拒之門外。? 假如我再回到童年，我就要養(yǎng)成經(jīng)常說?不?的習(xí)慣。一個少年要能挺得腰桿，拒絕做不值得做的事——就因為它不值得做。我可以寫上好幾頁，談?wù)勗缙谂囵B(yǎng)這一點的重要性。 假如我再回到童年，我會要求自己對待同伴和朋友更有禮貌，而且對陌生人也確實如此。在坎坷的人生道路上，最細小的禮貌猶如在漫長的冬季為我們歌唱的小鳥，使得冰天雪地的嚴冬變得較易忍受。 最后，假如我再回到童年，我不會竭力為自己謀幸�！�—似乎那是人生的唯一目標；與之相反，我會更加努力，讓他人幸福。 交流方式 當(dāng)你說話、寫信或打電話的時候，你的言語就傳遞了信息。人們用語言交流。

2 Ways of Communication

When you speak, write a letter, or make a telephone call, your words carry a message. People communicate with words. But do you know people also communicate without words? A smile on your face shows you are happy or friendly. Tears in your eyes tell others that you are sad. When you raise your hand in class, the teacher knows you want to say something or ask questions. You shake your head and people know you are 不過，你知道嗎?人們不用語官也能交流。你知道嗎?臉上的微笑顯示你高興或友好。眼中的淚水告訴別人你很傷心。課堂上你一舉手，老師就知道你有話要說或有問題要問。你搖搖頭，人們就知道你在說?不?；你點點頭，人們就知道你在說?是?。 其他事物也能傳遞信息。例如，公共汽車站的站牌幫助你弄清該乘哪一輛車。學(xué)校墻上的路牌幫助你找到圖書館。門上的牌子告訴你從哪兒進去或從哪兒出來。你可曾注意到，在你周圍有許許多多招牌，saying "No". You nod and people know you are saying "Yes".

Other things can also carry messages. For example, a sign at the bus stop helps you to know which bus to take. A sign on the wall of your school helps you to find the library. Signs on the doors tell you where to go in or out. Have you ever noticed that there are a lot of signs around you and that you receive messages from them all the time?

People can communicate in many other ways. An artist can use his drawings to tell about beautiful mountains, the blue seas and many other things. Books are written to tell you about all the wonderful things in the world and what other people are thinking about.

3 The Fight against Youth Smoking

Since I took office I’ve done everything in my power to protect our children from harm. We've worked to make their streets and their schools safer, to give them something positive to do after school and before their parents get home. We've worked to teach our children that drugs are dangerous, illegal and wrong.

Today, I want to talk to you about the historic op-portunity we now have to protect our nation's children from an even more deadly threat: smoking. Smoking kills more people every day than AIDS, alcohol, car accidents, murders, suicides, drugs and fires combined. Nearly 90 percent of those smokers lit their first cigarette before they turned 18. Consider this: 3,000 children start to smoke every day illegally, and 1,000 of them will die sooner because of it.

This is a national tragedy that every American should be honor-bound to help prevent. For more than five years we've worked to stop our children from smoking before they start, launching a nationwide campaign to educate them about the 而你一直在從這些招牌中獲取各種信息? 人們還可以用其他許多方式來相互交流。畫家可以用他的繪畫來表現(xiàn)壯麗的山脈、湛藍的大海和其他許多事物。作家撰寫書籍給你講述世界上一切奇妙的事物，告訴你別人正在想些什么。 與青少年吸煙作斗爭 自從我就職以來，我就在我的權(quán)力范圍內(nèi)為保護兒童不受傷害作了一切努力。我們已經(jīng)努力使他們的街區(qū)和學(xué)校更加安全，讓他們在放學(xué)以后和父母回家之前這段時間內(nèi)有積極的事可做。我們已經(jīng)努力教育我們的孩子，毒品是危險的、違法的和錯誤的。 今天，我想和你們談?wù)勎覀兡壳八鶕碛械臍v史性機遇，這個機遇就是保護我們國家的孩子免受一種更致命的威脅：吸煙。吸煙每天導(dǎo)致死亡的人數(shù)比愛滋病、酗酒、車禍、謀殺、自殺、吸毒及火一起導(dǎo)致的死亡人數(shù)還要多。這些吸煙者中有90％是在18歲之前開始吸第一支煙的。請考慮以下事實：每天有3000名兒童開始違法吸煙，由于吸煙，他們中將有1000人因此而縮短壽命。 這是一個國家的悲劇。每一個人在道義上都有責(zé)任防止它的發(fā)生。在過去五年多的時間里，我們一直努力在孩子們開始吸煙之前就阻止他們，在全目范圍內(nèi)發(fā)起一場運動，教育青少年認識到吸煙的危害，減少他們獲得煙草產(chǎn)，品的渠道，嚴格限制煙草公司向青少年做廣告。如果我們采取這些行動。我們就可以在未來的五年內(nèi)

（1）2000年真題。

Directions:

Study the following set of pictures carefully and write an essay in no less than 150 words.

Your essay must be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2.Your essay should cover all the information provided and meet the requirements below:

1. Describe the pictures

2. Deduce the purpose of the artist of the pictures.

3. Suggest counter-measures.

真題分析：

本題的題目是一組圖，其中上下兩幅圖形成了鮮明的對比�？忌�需要抓住的細節(jié)包括年代的差別（分別是1900年和1995年，相隔約一個世紀）、漁船數(shù)量的差別、海洋中魚的數(shù)量差別。這時只要簡單地加以分析就可以發(fā)現(xiàn)，畫圖者

的意圖是警告人們，如果人類繼續(xù)無節(jié)制地開發(fā)自然資源，那么總有一天自然資源將會徹底枯竭，最終威脅到人類自己的生存�？忌�需要分析畫圖者的本意，并提出相應(yīng)的解決措施。

這里需要再次提醒的一點是，在第一段描述圖中內(nèi)容時，要用過去時來說明兩個不同年代的情況。

思路拓展：

環(huán)境問題是一個涉及內(nèi)容十分廣泛的話題，包括環(huán)境污染、沙漠化、森林退化、資源枯竭、全球變暖、生態(tài)失衡，同時還與人口增長、經(jīng)濟發(fā)展、能源開發(fā)等一系列社會問題緊密相連。從根本上來說，這都是由于人類無休止地向地球索取、而沒有采取合適的方法來回報地球，造成地球的產(chǎn)能已經(jīng)無法承受如此巨大的負擔(dān)。考生在文章中可以提出，要徹底解決環(huán)境問題，需要各國政府和全世界每一個人的通力合作，需要喚醒所有人的環(huán)境保護意識，用所有可能的措施，包括政治和經(jīng)濟上的合作、全社會的大力倡導(dǎo)、法律的介入等一系列措施來治理這一問題。

范文：

The picture unveils a drastic change of ocean ecology during the past century due to the expanding scale of world commercial fishing. There were few fishing ships on the sea in

1900 when an enormous number of fish swam freely; in contrast, in 1995 a large fleet of ships were endeavoring to search for the only fish in the sea.

The tremendous contrast presented by the drawing alarmingly reminds us of the detrimental deterioration of oceanic ecosystem by the greediness of mankind. The industry of commercial fishing had undergone a booming expansion along with the growing public awareness of the merits of seafood, which made fishing unusually profitable. Lacking knowledge regarding the significance of ecological balance, businessmen sent out ships that insatiably chased fishes and thus posed a severe threat to all life in the sea. However, this trend may in turn endanger humankind.

To prevent the exhaustion of ocean resources, governments should unite to work out effective measures against commercial fishing. For instance, there should be limitations on fishing time and location so as to reduce the exploitation of the sea. Moreover, people also call for laws and regulations that are responsible for punishing excessive fishing. Last but not the least, the public attachment to the importance of balance preservation would play a decisive role in saving ocean species from extinction.

譯文：

該圖顯示出20世紀以來由于全球商業(yè)捕魚業(yè)的大規(guī)模擴張而導(dǎo)致海洋生態(tài)系統(tǒng)的巨大變化。1900年的時候海上只有一艘船，而海里有許許多多魚兒在自由地遨游；相反，到了1995年，海上有許多漁船，它們都在努力尋找海里僅剩的一條魚。

該圖所顯示出來的巨大反差使我們警醒地意識到人們的貪婪給海洋生態(tài)系統(tǒng)造成了巨大的破壞。隨著公眾意識到了海鮮食品的價值，商業(yè)捕魚也在不斷擴張，而且有著十分高的利潤率。由于商人們?nèi)鄙賹τ谏鷳B(tài)平衡的認識，他們的漁船無休止地捕魚，給海洋生物的生存造成了巨大的威脅。但是，這個趨勢可能最終會反過來威脅到人類自己的生存。 為了防止海洋資源的枯竭，各個政府必須聯(lián)合起來，對商業(yè)捕魚采取有效的措施。例如，為了防止過度捕撈，可以限制捕魚的時間和地點。此外，人們還呼吁制定更多的法律法規(guī)來懲罰過度捕撈。最后，公眾對于保持生態(tài)平衡重要性的認識對于拯救瀕臨滅絕的海洋生物起到了決定性的作用。
