1.Write a short essay by commenting on the saying \"The early bird catches the worm.\" You should write about 150 words on the ANSWER SHEET. （分数：2.00）
__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案：(正确答案： There goes a famous saying, \"The early bird catches the worm.\" It means that if you do something early or before anyone else, you will have an advantage and be successful. I quite agree with this saying. Real life is never short of stories which can demonstrate the point. You choose to travel on holidays but find that the tickets for buses or flights have already sold out, and then your trip is ruined because you don't make any preparation beforehand. But if you plan your trip earlier and reserve the tickets and hotel in advance, things will be wholly different. Here is another example. You know there are too few seats in the library for students to review for final exams, so you get up early and line up at the library door before it opens. The result? You may safely secure a seat while those late comers quite probably will have no seat. Therefore, if you want to be successful, you should always keep in mind that only the early bird catches the worm.)

__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案：(正确答案： As is depicted in the picture, one early morning an aged couple is carrying a set of cleaning equipment, led by their grandson who is striding cheerfully to school. It is not difficult to see that the aged grandparents are following their beloved grandchild wearily, sweating heavily. This cartoon reflects a serious social phenomenon that children nowadays are increasingly dependent, tending to hand over their own responsibilities to their elders. The major reason for this phenomenon is that most children in China nowadays are the only child in the family and they easily become spoiled or overprotected. Some of them even don't know how to make the bed when entering universities. Should they go on like this, they would find it difficult to integrate into the society later. Therefore, in order to help children become independent and capable, parents or grandparents had better let the children stand more on their own feet, while children should learn to take some responsibilities for themselves.)

3.Write an essay by commenting on the following saying. You can give examples to illustrate your point. You should write about 150 words on the ANSWER SHEET. 一根链条，最脆弱的一环决定其强度；
一只木桶，最短的木板决定其容量。 （分数：2.00）
__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案：(正确答案： The saying that \"The chain tends to break at its most vulnerable link and water flows out of the bucket at its shortest board\" vividly and impressively indicates the philosophy that overall quality is determined by weaknesses rather than strengths. This philosophy should always be borne in mind by government officials in a country where there is a sharp gap between the rich and the poor, for the latter, like the shortest board of a bucket, determines the overall level of a country's development. If poor people's living standard remains low, they are likely to become the vulnerable link of a chain, posing potential threat to social stability. In view of the gap between the rich and the poor that may act as one of the shortest boards delaying China's development and social stability, I hope that the government would find inspiration from the above-mentioned philosophy and attach more importance to the poor, so as to better promote social progress and build a more harmonious society.)

__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案：(正确答案： Nowadays, public spotlight has been shone on the phenomenon that some teachers, especially those in primary and secondary schools, apart from teaching in class, are busy getting themselves involved in paid private lessons. Most people think that this practice brings shame on the so-called \"sacred duty\" of the teachers, which has long been perceived as a selfless art of imparting knowledge and educating people. A few other voices are standing on the side of these teachers in that they believe these teachers have rights to earn money on the ground of mutual willingness between themselves and students' parents. As I see it, teachers should be banned from making money by means of paid private lessons as those lessons may lead to certain sacrifice of public education. Moreover, teachers who are often compared to gardeners should devote themselves to the career of cultivating students—the flowers which represent the country's future.) 解析：解析： 本题要求根据所给的提纲写一篇关于教师兼职有偿补课的作文。根据题目要求。文章可安排如下： 第一段：指出教师兼职有偿补课这一现象。 第二段：简单说明不同人群对此现象的不同看法。 第三段：表明自己的观点，总结全文。

__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案：(正确答案： There is a popular saying that goes like \"Given the same fish, put into two different aquaria, it will face fundamentally different situations\". To be specific, this fish will be the leader dominating all other tiny fish in a small aquarium while it readily becomes a follower subordinating to bigger fish in larger surroundings. Which would you choose, the small aquarium or the larger surroundings? For me, better be the head of a dog than the tail of a lion. In other words, it is better to be the leader of a less prestigious group than to be a subordinate in a more prestigious one. Firstly, being the head of a dog usually means that you are striking and respectable, which would provides you with more opportunities for being promoted. Moreover,
being the head of a group, you have to constantly improve yourself, which will end up making yourself more capable and prominent. From what's discussed above, I believe it is better to be the head of a dog than the tail of a lion.)
