作文题目:
Intelligence-Nature or Nurture
1) 有人认为智力是天生的;
2) 也有人认为智力是环境决定的;
3) 如何更好地发展智力。
参考范文:
Are some people born clever, and others born stupid Or is intelligence developed by our environment or experience Strangely enough, the answer to both questions is yes。
On the one hand, if we take two people at random from the crowd, it is very likely that their degrees of intelligence will be completely different. However, if we take two identical twins,
chances are that they will be as intelligent as each other. Therefore, a conclusion can be drawn that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence。
On the other hand, though, if we put two identical twins in different environments, for example, we might send one to university and the other to a factory where the work is boring, we would find differences in their intelligence several years later, which indicates that environment does play a crucial role in our intelligence。
Just as every coin has two sides, our intelligence is partly born and partly developed. The sure way to develop our intelligence is intelligent parents as well as a good environment.

We Should Balance Our Love
四级满分Nowadays it is common to see that many parents focus their attention on their children, but leave their own parents without proper care. The most typical example is the phenomenon of empty nest seniors. This problem has aroused the public concern and has become the hot topic of many discussions.
Paying little attention to older parents can have serious consequences. First, the elderly often feel lonely and depressed if there is no child with whom they can talk, and this can have a bad effect on their mental health. Second, the aged parents with no children by their sides can have a lot of trouble in their daily life due to disease or old age.
In my opinion, we should take the following measures. Children should be encouraged to live with or near their old parents, which is very helpful for them to know their parents, con
cern and attend their daily life. And it is also necessary for them to create chances to communicate with their aged parents. Besides, our govemmeiit should strive to establish the service system for the elderly and expand its social insurance coverage among them.

My Views on Examination
Nowadays the examination is used as a chief means of deciding whether a student succeeds or fails in mastering a particular subject in most colleges and universities. Although it is efficient, its side effects are also enormous.
On the one hand, examinations lower the standards of teaching. Since teachers are often judged by examination results, they are reduced to training their students in exam techniques.

In fact, few of us admit that examinations can contribute anything really important to the students' academic development. If that is the case, why cannot we make a change and devise something more efficient and reliable than examinations? (153 words)
译文赏析】 我对考试的看法
现在在大多数学院和大学,考试被用来衡量学生在学习某门课程上 是成功还是失败的主要方法。虽然这很有效,但它也有很大的副作用。
一方面,考试降低了教学标准。由于经常通过考试成绩来评判老师, 他们就会降低要求至只训练学生的考试技巧。以参加考试为目标的话, 没有课程能被成功地教授。另一方面,最有害的影响就是,考试助长了 学生不好的学习习惯。由于考试成绩是评断他学习表现的唯一标准,学 生被迫机械地记忆,而不是进行创造性的思考。
事实上,我们中很少有人承认考试对学生学业的发展有任何真正重 要的作用。如果真的是这样的话,为什么我们不做个改变,设计出一些 比考试更有效更可靠的东西呢?
