Silence Is Gold
1. 许多场合中“沉默是金”是正确的
2. 但也有例外的情形
3. 结论
【范文】
When we talk of the famous proverb "Silence is Gold", we should not simply label it as right or wrong, but explore it in depth.
This proverb is especially true under several situations. First, if we have made a promise not to let out a secret, we should always keep silent. Second, we should avoid talking over facts or statistics of which we are not sure. Third, whenever we are expressing our ideas, brevity is the soul of wit and talking too much will always lead to faults and mistakes.
Nevertheless, there are also some exceptions. If we find out a flaw in other's speaking or writing, we should not hesitate a moment to point it out. And to friends or acquaintances seeking advice, we should feel free to help them.
In a word, we can draw the conclusion that in most cases "silence is gold", but in certain circumstances, talking is the right choice.
【点评】
本文的特色在于其并未完全肯定或完全否定所提到的谚语,而是从正、反两个方面去分析,即第二段指出其正确性,第三段谈例外情况;末段总结,呼应全文。
范文首先提出所要讨论的谚语“沉默是金”。第二段分三个方面阐述其正确性,即发誓保守秘密,对于不确定的事情要保持沉默,而在表达自己的思想时,力求简洁。第三段指出例外,为别人指出错误或为朋友等提建议时,不要坚持“沉默是金”。末段总结,呼应第二、三段。
第一段中的label...as...表示“将……看作……”,而explore... in depth表示“深入探究……”。第二段第一点中的make a promise表示“允诺”,let out a secret表示“泄露秘密”,keep silent表示“保持沉默”;第三点中的brevity is the soul of wit也是个谚语,表示“言贵简洁”。第三段第二点中的acquaintance指“熟人”。

【范文】
January , 2010
Dear Sirs,
I am writing you this letter to show my keen interest in the post of assistant manager which you advertised in yesterday's China Daily for, as is indicated in the enclosed resume, my major and experiences closely parallel your requirement.
I have always been a top student in my specialized area, biochemistry. I took several other courses in my spare time and excelled in all of them due to my hard work. I am sure such courses as British and American literature and culture, business management and statistics will lend me an edge in the fierce competition in the job market. Another point I want to draw your attention to is that I have been taking an active part in a variety of campus activities. In the due process teamwork spirit has been enhanced and my interpersonal skills improved.
I would like to meet you at your earliest convenience and discuss the possibility of working with your company. Or, if you are too busy these days, you can contact me at 64543575 for further information. Thank you for your favorable consideration.
Best wishes.
Yours sincerely,
Jenny Green
【点评】
这篇文章是一篇非常成功的求职信。首段表明了自己对经理助理这一职位的渴望,其中包括了自己如何得知这一职位的,而后说明自己的条件符合要求,引起下段。次段分五句,说明自己在专业上是个尖子生,并指出对于其他课程自己做得同样出色,为将来的工作奠定了坚实的基础;后两句说明自己参加了各种学校活动,培养了多方面的能力。第三段首句说明自己非常希望能早日获得面试的机会;次句说如果对方太忙,可以打电话联系;末句对对方表示感谢,是一句客套话。
首段中的keen表示“热切的”, parallel这里做动词,表示“与……相当,比得上”。第二段首句中的specialized area表示“专业领域”;第二句中的excel是不及物动词,表示“突出,超常,胜过他人”;第三句中的edge表示“优势”;第四句中的a variety of等于various,表示“多种多样的”;第五句中的teamwork spirit表示“团队精神”,interpersonal skills表示“人际交往的能力”。
预测作文(五)
People's Use of the Internet
1. 上图所示为2001年7月、2002年7月、2003年1月我国上网用户总人数,请描述其变化;
2. 请说明发生这些变化的原因;
3.你认为目前用户在因特网使用中有什么困难或问题。
【范文】
From the chart we can see clearly that the number of Internet surfers in our country has increased from 26.5 million in July 2001 to 45.8 million in July 2002, and then to 59.1 million in January 2003.
In my mind, the reasons why the Internet surfers are on the rise are as follows. First, the Internet can help us accomplish many tasks, including both work and play―searching for information has become more convenient than ever, and safe online business is no longer a dream. Besides, surfing the Internet is becoming cheaper and cheaper―more and more people can afford it.
The negative effects of the Internet are also clear. To begin with, sitting too long before the computers is harmful to our body, especially our eyes. Second, more and more people become indulged in playing video games or chatting online, which are time-consuming.
All in all, I should say the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. The key lies in whether we can make good use of it to enhance both work and study.
【点评】
首段叙述从2001年至2003年我国上网用户总人数的变化趋势。第二段分两方面给出其中的原因:首先是因特网方便快捷、作用巨大;其次是费用降低。第三段分两个方面指出面临的困难和问题:首先是上网时间过长有害健康;其次是有些人上网玩游戏、聊天,这都是不好的习惯。第四段做总结:第一句指出利大于弊;第二句说关键在于好好利用因特网。
第二段首句中的in my mind意思是“依我看,在我看来”;第三段中的be harmful to意为“对……有伤害”,become indulged in意思是“沉迷于”,time-consuming是“浪费时间”的意思;最后一段首句中的outweigh意为“比……重要”。 |
