1、北京奧運
The Beijing 2008 Summer Olympics logo has a single Chinese character on a traditional red Chinese seal. The English words “Beijing 2008” are written with a Chinese brush below it. At the bottom of the picture， there are the five rings of Olympic Games. The figure in the logo resembles a runner or dancer and the Chinese character “jing” which means “capital”。
The image carries the message that today‘s China is not only a nation with a long and glorious history， but also one full of modern dynamics. First and foremost， this logo is a journey to the future， the emblem for China moving towards the 2008 Olympic Games. What is more， it is a symbol of the city’s promise to make the Games a success. Accordingly， this emblem represents the heart of an ancient culture embracing the modern world， the spirit of a people moving towards a new destiny.
In my view， first of all， the Olympic Game represents the spirit of sports. Arms flung wide， it invites all people and the world to share in the city‘s history， beauty， energy， and its future. In addition， it is a gesture of friendship and hope that the community of nations will unite in peace through sports.

2、留學
Directions： For this part， you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic Studying Abroad. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below：
1）目前很多中國學生出國留學;
2）出國留學的好處;
3）我的看法。
Nowadays， going abroad for studies is enjoying a striking popularity among adolescents. Importance should be attached to studying abroad.
There are a great many advantages of studying overseas. First and foremost， living and studying abroad offers students a different perspective of the world. On a university campus， international students are likely to encounter their counterparts from various countries and areas and are exposed to diverse ideas and values. What is more， overseas experience is the best opportunity for the real-life use of foreign languages. There is no better opportunity to improve second-language skills than living in the country in which it is spoken.
Generally peaking， it is my view that although going abroad is expensive and perhaps painful， the payoff is worthwhile. In the first place， in addition to knowledge， overseas students can gain precious experiences that those who stay at home will never have. Furthermore， overseas experience， frustrating and painful as it may be， is conducive to the growth of adolescents.

3、我的看法。
In recent years， people are developing an inseparable relationship with Internet. As is known to all， it is convenient for us to click the mouse when surfing on line， either to entertain ourselves or to meet the work’s needs.
On the one hand， no one denies that Internet is currently one of the most useful media in our daily life. As a college student， I get on line every day to exchange information through e-mails with my net friends. But on the other hand， a good many people admit that they are too much addicted to Internet to maintain a regular and wholesome lifestyle.
Thus， it is necessary for us to use Internet in a reasonable way and restrain from overindulgence. After all，Internet is invented to enrich our life， and to improve the efficiency of our work rather than shackle us with a chain.
4、考試
Directions： For this part you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic My Views on Examinations. You should write at least 120 words and base your composition on the outline below：
1）大學都用考試來衡量學生的成績;
2）考生可能帶來的副作用;
3）我對考試的看法。
In most colleges and universities the examination is used as a chief means of deciding whether a student succeeds or fails in mastering a particular subject. Although it does the job quite efficiently， its side effects are also enormous.
To begin with， examinations lower the standards of teaching. Since teachers are often judged by examination results， they are reduced to training their students in exam techniques. No subjects can be taught successfully merely through being approached with intent to take examinations. In addition， the most undesirable effect is that examinations encourage bad study habits. As the examination score is the only criterion for his academic performance， a student is driven to memorize mechanically rather than to think creatively.
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？
5、老師
Directions： For this part you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic The most unforgettable Teacher I ever Know. You should write at least 120 words and base your composition on the outline below：
1）我生活中最難忘的老師是……
2）為什么他（或她）令我難以忘懷;
3）結(jié)論。
In my life I have met a great many teachers who are really worth recalling. But perhaps the most unforgettable one I ever know is my English teacher.
What frequently brings back memories of my school teacher is his special qualities. First of all， he gave us the greatest gift a teacher can offer—an awakening of a passion for learning. He not only led us to an appreciation of the beauty and perfection of English language and literature， but also aroused our great interest in exploring something deeper in this field. Second， I was attracted by his lively wit. I remember that we students always anticipated his class with great eagerness because his lecture were humorously delivered， never failing to provoke chuckles or loud laughs.
Although it is nearly two years since I attended his last class， he is the talk of our old classmates， and I know part of him has already stayed in my heart.
