参考范文

The bar chart illustrates five activities before bed among children aged between 0-8. Overall, it is evident that children in different age groups have different living habits but all children spend more time on watching TV, brushing teeth, bathing compared with reading and eating time.

It is obvious that watching TV, brushing teeth and bathing cost children more time. They spend more time on watching TV 0.3h by infants under 3, 0.23 by toddlers from 4 to 5 years old, 0.3 by children from 6 to 8 years old, respectively.  Also brushing teeth is less attractive to children aged 4 to 5 years olds. Bathing time decreases as children grow older.

Interestingly, babies aged between 0-3 spend more time reading than older children.  In addition, only eating time augment as children grow up. By and large, reading and eating time vary differently.

Even though all children spend more time in watching TV and brushing teeth, 4 to 5 years old are less interested in both activities. When they grow older, bathing and reading time diminish. However, eating time reduce with age.

Task 2 考题题库

1）同意与否类：

In modern age, some people think it is unnecessary to teach children the skill of handwriting. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

参考范文

Many are sounding a note of warning that handwriting skill is about to be relegated to history in face of ubiquitous typing on a broad range of electronic gadgets. Though conservatism holds that such skill still has an important place today and should continue to draw emphasis in educational curriculum, I remain hardly convinced.

The argument erroneously assumes that handwriting has been considered a requisite skill before the rise of keyboard, yet that was never the case. Writing is a criterion of basic literacy, but handwriting is more of an art that is deemed an additional skill that stands outside the compulsory education. It is true that those with impressive handwriting are often highly admired, but such aesthetic aspect has never been incorporated in any level of academic assessment from primary school to college. As typing is gaining growing popularity, it appears to be as irrelevant as ever to include handwriting in compulsory education.  

Moreover, the ultimate purpose of teaching children handwriting remains elusive. The Internet has entirely transformed our way of communication, in particular the transition from handwriting to typing. It is even challenging to think of appropriate circumstances under which handwriting proves indispensable: students often write down their notes on their laptop or tablet while taking a lecture; employees send emails or prepares PowerPoint slides to communicate work issues. Perhaps written signature is the only situation in which one is required to write by hand for authentication purpose, but even in that case, aesthetic quality is genuinely the least of our concern.

In conclusion, any attempt to argue for the necessity of learning handwriting can be construed as a desperate measure to cling to the past while refusing adamantly to embrace new changes. Yet, when nostalgic feelings are stripped of handwriting tradition, what is left is merely a past-tense routine that is surely repelled by the future.

2）利弊讨论类

Online shopping is replacing shopping in stores. Is it a positive or negative development?

Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

参考范文

Online shopping has growing popularity among people nowadays, and an increasing number of people choose to do their daily shopping on line instead of going to actual stores. As far as I am concerned, this is a positive trend.

To begin with, no one can deny the convenience brought by this phenomenon not only to customers but also to businessmen. Without leaving their homes, ordinary people can just sit in their comfortable chairs and make a few clicks on the keyboard to buy whatever they need. If they had no other choices than going from store to store, they would have to encounter numerous troubles even just after they left their homes, such as traffic congestion, problems in finding the right place. As for sales persons, they do not have to provide extra services to please their customers, except for some friendly emojis. In addition, this kind of shopping style actually increases people’s choices and widens the area that local business people can manage, because distance is no longer the barrier between consumers and dealers. In this case, people can have a wider range of choices to buy or to sell whatever from or to whomever as long as they can afford a comparatively small amount of delivery fee.

Admittedly, the fact that shopping on the Internet is substituting shopping in stores will be quite a challenge for businessmen who are running those stores in the street. However, this trend is, as a matter of fact, inevitable. What those businessmen should consider is changing their mode of making profits instead of complaining about the loss that the web economy has brought to them. On condition that they change their ways of thinking, “the web” can indeed help them make more money.

It is true that more and more people are choosing to shop online, and this trend has more advantages than disadvantages.

3）报告类：

In some cultures it is argued that the old age should be valued, while in some cultures youth is more valued. Discuss both ideas and give your own opinion.

Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

参考范文

In diverse social and cultural situations, people from dissimilar backgrounds may have divergent attitudes toward the same issue regarding the value of the old and youth. Undoubtedly, as for me, both life spans have their own glamor.

Having experienced and endured almost all the hardships of life, people in senior years tend to be sufficiently experienced. The abundant philosophy and outlook for life that elderly people have attained in past years envelope them with a sense of accomplishment. Furthermore, despite having undergone some ups and downs, people in later life are inclined to be equipped with so much wealth, which means they can afford commodities and services that they desire to purchase and possess, like luxurious dress-up they yearned for in the youth, houses and apartments they have dreamed before, and the like. Therefore, senior years are cherished by numerous people in some societies.

However, young people are symbolized with dynamic and energetic figures, which enable them to take on things whatever they like. A good case in point is an around-the-world tour. Theme parks that are far away never scare off youngsters for they recognize that a 10-hour flight is just a little case for them. The delight of jet coaster and mega-drop never discourage them in that they know their body can afford such stress. Another convincing argument of younger ages is that youth is a period when they can acquire new knowledge. It is tough for the pleasure resulting from other things to match the satisfaction bred in study.

In conclusion, both periods have their charms. What we can do is to treasure the present, and as the saying goes,” Yesterday is history; tomorrow is mystery; only today is a gift.”
