Directions: For this part,you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic A Smile Is the Best Language.You should write at least 150 words,and base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese) below:
1)有些人不喜欢微笑，或者轻视微笑的作用；
2)其实微笑是最好的语言。
A Smile Is the Best Language
It has long been accepted that a smile is the best language.The truth of a smile is that it is like a seed that can grow into a towering tree and at long last it has deep and profound effect on people’s lives.
At the moment we get in trouble,get misunderstood or give thanks,a smile is more helpful than any other expression.Many daily incidents can probe the strength/power of begin with,we should always smile to ourselves,so as to keep optimistic when in difficulty.At the same time,smiling to others is necessary,too.Sometimes,we may face misunderstandings that are hard to explain clearly simply bu words.Then, a smile can show them the genuine sincerity to win their trust.Besides, smile is a worldwide language to say “thanks” and can bring pleasant feelings to others.
In a word,perhaps the best example of universally understood body language is smile.As the old saying goes,smile to others,and sooner or later they will smile back to you.
Now the income gap is getting wider and wider. In some privately owned firms, joint-ventures, or foreign-funded companies ， an executive’s yearly income is ten times or even a hundred times as much as an ordinary worker’s
Faced with this situation, people will undoubtedly have different opinions. Some believe that it benefits the social and economic development since driving force is often derived from the gap. In other words ， the gap inspires people and gives a push to advancement. Other speak of its side effect: income gap is often the root of social unrest and also contrary to our country’s principle.
From my point of view, while it is true that the income may stimulate the social development to some extent, it causes trouble as well. An income gap that is too wide for most people to bear can neither contribute to the stability of a country nor promote its economic development. Therefore ， while we are advocating the rapid development of our country ， we should tolerate the narrow income gap but narrow the wide one.

How to Enhance Our Sense of Happiness?
1、 人们对于如何提升幸福感有不同的看法
2、 幸福感的提升不仅包括物质层面，也包括……
参考范文： How to Enhance Our Sense of Happiness?
Along with the improvement of living standards, people are no longer content with being fed and clothed adequately. They are more concerned about how to enhance their sense of happiness.
To a large extent, happiness depends on individuals’ understanding about it. For some people, happiness relies on material basis, without which they can’t live comfortably and decently. For others, they believe that happiness has nothing to do with money. Thus to enhance happiness is not equal to improving one’s material living standards. Instead, people are supposed to confront their life with right attitude, to be active and grateful in order to have a happy life.
For my part, money does buy happiness, but only up to the point where it enables one to live comfortably. To boost one’s happiness not only needs the material but also the spiritual enrichment. It encompasses living a meaningful life, utilizing your gifts and your time, living with reflection and objective.

Generation gap between parents and children
Nowadays ， there are more and more misunderstanding between parents and children which is so- called generation gap 。 It is estimated that (75 percentages of parents often complain their children‘s unreasonable behavior while children usually think their parents too old fashioned)。
Why have there been so much misunderstanding between parents and children?Maybe the reasons can be listed as follows 。 The first one is that （ the two generations,having grown up at different times, have different likes and dislikes ，thus the disagreement often rises between them） 。 Besides（due to having little in common to talk about ， they are not willing to sit face to face ） 。 The third reason is （with the pace of modern life becoming faster and faster ， both of them are so busy with their work or study that they don‘t spare enough time to exchange ideas ）。To sum up ，the main cause of XX is due to （ lake of communication and understanding each other） 。
It is high time that something were done upon it. For one thing （children should respect their parents ）。On the other hand ，（ parents also should show solicitue for their children）。 All these measures will certainly bridge the generation gap 。
In recent years, Sinology, the study of Chinese traditional culture, literature, history, society etc, has become increasingly popular For instance, it is reported that many primary and secondary schools have set up courses of sinology, in which students are taught classical works by Chinese ancient educators and philosophers, like Confucius- Another good illustration is in the program CCTV Lecture Room famous scholars, e.g, Yu Dan, give lectures on Chinese ancient philosophies and literatures.
Sinology becomes prevalent due to the fact that it is of vital significance for both the individuals and the society. For one thing, Sinology is the essence of Chinese civilization with more than 5,000 years. Thus, for individuals, they can enlarge their scope of knowledge, enrich their experience and adapt themselves to the complicated society. For another, it is acknowledged that the rehabilitation of Sinology can contribute to the establishment of a harmonious society.
In my opinion, all Chinese people should inherit the merits of Sinology. To do so, we can read books by ourselves or to attend lectures on this issue. Besides, we have the gation to popularize introducing it to the world By doing so, we can not only inherit it but also make it glorious and prosperous.

College Graduates Work as Village Officials 大学生当村干部
There is no denying the fact that it is a hotly debated topic today how college graduates should choose their careers. Some time ago, it was reported that some college graduates chose to work as village officials. To this people’s attitudes differ sharply. Some hold the positive view while others are against it. As far as I am concerned, I believe that it is a wise choice.
On the one hand, college graduates can contribute a lot to the development of the countryside. First, they can apply their professional knowledge there. Secondly, they can introduce new concepts to the countryside and speed the development of rural culture. As a result, the gap between the city and the countryside can well be bridged.
On the other hand, these graduates can benefit a lot from working as village officials. While too many college graduates are fighting for the handful of positions in big cities, these graduates can find themselves a wider stage of development and realize their value.
Therefore, college graduates working as village officials is a win-win choice and more graduates should be encouraged to work in the countryside.
In recent years ， xx has caused a heated debate on （ 1 ）。
The factors for （ 2 ） 。First of all ，（ 3 ）。Then ， there comes a case that （ 4 ）。 Moreover ， （ 5 ） 。 Especially when （ 6 ） 。Indeed, these unique points can be collected theo remind people that （ 7 ）。In this way ，we should behave just like （ 8 ）。
The impact of Television.
In recent years ， with the development of science and technology ，80 percent of all homes in China have satellite TV ， offering as many as 50 channels 。It has caused a heated debate on （the impact of television on children ）。 Many parents are worried about the impact of so much television on children.
The factors for （parents‘ worry is that children are indulge in television and spend too much time on it 。） 。First of all ，（with so many programs to choose from ， children are not getting as much exercise as they should ）。Then ， there comes a case that （ some studies have show that excessive watching of television by millions of children has lowered their ability to achieve in school ）。
Moreover ， （ the effect on children‘s minds are more serious than the effect on children‘s bodies ） 。 Especially when （ the children are too small to judge what programs are suit to them ） 。
Indeed, these unique points can be connected to remind parents that （ they should pay close attention to and responsibilities for supervising their children‘s TV viewing ）。In this way ，children will not be influented too deeply 。
With the rapid development of the society, more and more people begin to realize the importance of innovation. Such as, a lot of new things appear in our daily life.
There are many reasons for the importance of innovation. Firstly, for a person, if he has the spirit of innovation, he can be not satisfied with his current situation, and keep going until he succeeds. Secondly, for a team, creation can increase its efficiency. Thirdly, this kind of spirit can help the society develop faster and faster, so that there are more and more new things which can enrich our daily life.
Thus, it is very important for us to encourage innovation. On the one hand, we students should learn to be innovative in our daily life. On the other hand, governments could set some laws and regulations to encourage innovation. Only in this way can we have a better life.

I'm delighted to learn that you are going to visit me during the week-long vacation. My parents will also be happy to see you again. I'm sure you will enjoy every minute here.
I know you are fond of swimming. A river lies not far away from my home. We can go swimming there. I think it would be very pleasant and refreshing to swim in such hot summer days. In every big room of my home there is an air-conditioner. We can watch TV, play CDs or read books very comfortably at home.
A mountain about two miles away from here is beautiful and it is worth touring. We can go there on foot. When we climb to the top of the mountain, we can have a wonderful bird-eye view of the whole village.
Just phone me before you set off. There is no need for you to take anything. I'll prepare everything for you.
I am looking forward to seeing you soon.
In recent years, psychologically healthy has become quite a serious problem. As for the reasons psychologically healthy, there are many factors contributing to it.
It is conceivable that it has mainly arisen from the two following factors. For one thing, with the speedy development of our society, people will go through many kinds of challenges. Thus, some people often are in pressure. For another, in this day and age, some people feel reluctant to approach. They lack the skill of interpersonal communication.
Taking all the above-mentioned factors into consideration, it is imperative of us to take effective measures to keep psychological healthy. To begin with, we should appeal to authorities to cultivate the awareness of people that keeping psychological healthy is of great significance. For another, people should try to develop the ability of interpersonal communication. Only in this way can we have a brilliant future.
In modern society, the decline in morals isbecoming more and more severe. For example,there have been a few cases in which a senior woman pretended to have fallen over and thenblackmailed the person who tried to help her. There was also another case where a little girl washit by a car and no passers-by gave her a hand.
To solve this problem, we need first to find out the reasons. For one, the fast pace ofmodern society is driving people apart from each other, thus people are losing the patience tocare for others. For another, with technology developing, it’s much easier for people to knowwhat is happening in the world today. In order to draw people’s attention, some media wouldlay stress on negative news and overemphasize the negative effects.
To reestablish social morals, we must work together. People should learn to care for theothers, while the media should treat negative news more properly.
