          2.也有人认为金钱是万恶之源(root of all evil) 
          3.我的看法 
          [范文]Can Money Buy Happiness? 
          Can money buy happiness? Various people have various answers. Some people  
think that money is the source of happiness. With money, one can buy whatever he  
enjoys. With money, one can do whatever he likes. So, in their minds, money can  
bring comfort, security, and so on. Money, as they think, is the source of  
happiness. 
          But there are still a lot of others who think that money is the root of all  
evil. Money drives people to steal, to rob, and to break the law. A lot of  
people became criminals just because they were in search of money. And in the  
Western countries, there is nothing that can’t be bought by money. Many people  
lose their own lives when hunting it. 
          I think that money is essential to life and we cannot do without money. But  
even though money is necessary to life, it can’t buy happiness. Happiness is not  
something that can be measured by money. It is a state of mind. One can have  
plenty of money, with which he can buy whatever he wants, and at the same time  
he is not happy because he is never satisfied or he is troubled by various kinds  
of problems. Therefore, although money is necessary for a happy life, it can’t  
buy happiness.

          Directions: For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write a  
composition on the topic My view on the Negative Effects of Some Advertisements.  
You should write at least 120 words and you should base your composition on the  
outline (given in Chinese) below: 
          1. 现在有些不良的商业广告 
          2. 这些广告的副作用和危害性 
          3. 我对这些广告的态度 
          [范文] 
          My view on the Negative Effects of Some Advertisements 
          Nowadays ther are a lot of false advertisements in society. They have  
caused many harms to society. Generally, their harms can be listed as  
follows. 
          First, they exaggerate the functions of the goods they advertise and  
mislead consumers. Second , some advertisements contain obscene contents and  
bring about spiritual pollution. Third, they seriously damage the credit of  
businesses because the shops which sell those goods will be distrusted and even  
considered the conspirators of those advertisers by consumers. 
          Personally, I am usually vigilant against any advertisements and so I have  
never been taken in. However, some people are credulous and are easily taken in.  
Therefore, in my opinion, effective measures must be taken to ban false  
advertisements and protect consumers’ interests. First, all the advertisements  
must be strictly censored by the authorities concerned before they are  
published. Besides, severe punishment must be inflicted on those who publish  
illegal advertisements. 
          In conclusion, false advertisements must be eliminated in our society.

composition on the topic The Two-day Weekend. You should write at least 100  
words and you should base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese)  
below: 
          1. 双休日给大学生带来的好处。 
          2. 双休日可能给大学生带来的问题。 
          3. 我应当怎样过好双休日。 
          [参考范文]The Two-day Weekend 
          The two-day weekend has brought a lot of benefits to college students. It  
not only offers us more time to get rid of tiredness and have a good rest, but  
also gives us more chances to take up some hobbies, such as fishing, reading, or  
gardening. From these activities we can learn many things outside the classroom,  
which will add to our knowledge. 
          Despite the convenience it brings us, the two-day weekend has also given  
rise to quite a few problems. The most serious one is that the weekdays are  
filled with more lesson, sometimes too many. Because our classes are limited to  
Monday through Friday, we have to take more lessons each day than in the past.  
This leaves us little time to catch our breath during the weekdays. 
          In order to benefit most from the two-day weekend, I have decided to make a  
good plan for the two-day weekend. Of course I should take this chance to relax.  
But during the weekend, I will still set aside enough time to study. By doing so  
ii can have a good time as well as make progress in my studies.

composition on the topic Why I Take the College English Test Band 6. you should

          [范文]Why I Take the College English Test Band 6 
          Some students think it unnecessary to take CET-6. They hold this views  
because CET-6 is not compulsory and they can get a degree so long as they pass  
CET-4. However, I think it necessary and beneficial to take CET-6. The reasons  
are obvious. 
          First, if I decide to take CET-6, natually, to pass CET-6 becomes a goal I  
set myself and with a goal to strive towards I will continue to study English  
hard. Of course my English will not be neglected in the third and fourth years.  
Besides, if I pass CET-6, I can get a certificate which, to some extent, shows  
my experience and qualification so that I can compete with other in job-hunting.  
Most important of all, a good knowledge of English will help my work and  
scientific research in the future. 
          All in all, taking CET-6 does good both to my studies and to my personal  
advancement.
