公司/工作

• The spread of multinational companies and globalization produce positive effects on everyone.To what extent do you agree or dissagree?

（老师修改过）

Currently, no one dares to deny that the issue of whether the development of global companies is more advantageous for everyone has become a focus of public attention over the past years.My perspective is that only some relevant people are benefited by the international corporations though there are lots of advantages about it.The following essay will elaborate more about the relevant details.

It is undeniable that the increasing numbers of multinational companies make plenty of benefits to someone could deliver positive consequences.To start with, according to the global economical system, it is beneficial for business men to develop their global companies, which means they can make more and more money because the cost is pretty low in some areas all over the world.Another benefit is that those firms can produce so many work opportunities for natives.For example,Apple which is the largest and most successful electronic device company spread their branches in China, then there were a large number of Chinese workers are hired by Apple factories in China. 

Nevertheless, there is no justification for regarding it as the most effective way, partly because local companies are suffocated by foreign companies because the global companies have more power and ability to control the market easily. Furthermore, not everyone really concern about how bad the business environment is, some individuals who are not in charge of the commercial things or irrelevant employees just do not care about what happens.

Based on the argumentation above,I would like to once again make my point clear that some bosses or commercial leaders or relevant employees should put their concentration on those multinational companies, others should have the awareness of what is the most effective way to improve their life quality to be a better place.

环境

• Government should make people responsible for looking after their own local environment.To what extent do you agree or disagree?
  观点：同意，政府就应该让当地人自己负责自己的环境。

正面论据理由：
A.当地环境好，当地人受益最大。The local people can benefit the most from it.所以会有很大的热情enthusiasm和积极性去做环境的保护。This local area and neighborhood is/are my home.

B.因为是自己努力创造的良好环境，当地人会用心维护这良好的环境状态endeavor to [maintain/keep it tidy]。

C.环境问题很可能是当地人在生产和发展和追求利益的过程中破坏的ruin the environment while going after benefits/profits.For example，制造业manufacturing会有废水废物的排放discharge the waste,which has poisoned the water source in some local areas。

让步论据和理由：
政府也不能完全不管，不能完全推给当地。Of course,政府有义务指导和帮助当地人保护环境，因为the government generally has more resources and funds to help and regulate.再反驳，Nevertheless，政府不必过多干预当地的环境治理，还是要让当地人自己主动保护和治理环境，政府可以适当给予一些资金和指导就可以。

教育

• Some people think that university should not provide theoretical knowledge,but to give practival training that is beneficial to society.Do you agree or disagree?

In China,a great number of advanced professional personnel are needed.

Therefore,cooperative education that combines classroom studies with practical work experience is more necessary.

• Schools should teach children academic subjects,which will be useful in their future careers.Subjects such as music and sports are not useful.To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Agree:

1. 激烈竞争下，学术课程能增加竞争力，未来职业发展会有帮助。
2. 升学考试里大多不涉及到体育和音乐内容。

Disagree:

1. 会成为书呆子
2. 体质可能不够好
3. 无法通过体育或体术来全面发展，成为教育的奴隶和一个机器

开头段：  
Currently,no one dares to deny that the issue of social media is bringing us advantages or disadvantages has been the public focus over the past years.I,personally,hold the firm belief that the pros outnumber their counterparts.The former are shown in making global friends easily and the sending of messages instantly,while the latter include being cheated and waste of precious time.(I willl show you the relevant details in the following part of the essay.)

主体段：  
Music and sports help to produce better students because it is useful to allow teenagers to develop teenagers to develop a variety of ways which prevent them from becoming a nerd if teachers only teach them academic subjects which will be useful in their future careers and that could be boring all the time,those individuals are not machine.For instance,students may gain a great deal of knowledge in school and then students can consider by themselves which way is the most appropriate for them in the near future,whose process makes them think by their independent minds.

Of course,learning useful academic subjects could be helpful and useful in the career which makes people more competitive.However,teenagers could not have the enough judgement to choose the right thing,and they still need help from parents and teachers.If students acquire diversity information when they are still children or teenagers,it could be better choice to make them more and more excellent.

• Some people think that single sex schools are better for students than co-ed schools. To what extent do you agree with this opinion?/To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Agree:

1. to avoid such phenomenon of falling in love at an early age,with more concentration on their study.

2. more conveninet to make the curriculum according to a certain gender group’s needs.

Disagree:

1. It will be easier to administrate the class and even the whole campus if there is mixed gender at school,especially at boys’ school.

2. More chances for students to communicate with the opposite gender group.

3. It will be more fun in extracurricular activities.

4. Having opposite sex aside,some will be more hardworking in their study.

Single-sex high schools help to produce better students becuase there are fewer distractions in these kinds of schools than in co-educational schools.

Nowadays,students are learning more than ever before,and while they are trying to understand all this new knowledge,they do not need distractions.

If boys and girls are studying together,they may become more focused on each other and not concentrate on the lesson.

For example,a male student might be more interested in impressing a female peer than listening to the teacher;similarly,female students might get into arguments over popular boys,or spend their time discussing the boys in their class instead of listening to the teacher.

If high schools are single sex,these kinds of distractions can be reduced.

科技

Some people believe that some internet websites should be restricted to prevent people from accessing sex or violent sites.To what extent do you agree with this opinion?

主体段1  
`there is no denying that` violence can be dangerous to the audiences,especially the children,because it is easier for them to be influenced and to imitate what they see without much thinking.So it is necessary for the government to pass some regulations to prevent the violent contents online.`Of course`(让步转折开始),we also need to say that letting children know the existence of violence can work as the precaution to protect them.`However`（让步之后再反驳，说明依然坚定自己开头的想法）,unlimited access to such things will lead to horrible consequence out of control,There must be safer and wiser ways of knowing their existence,such as by proper education from either parents or school teachers.

自己的想法+让步+反驳，回到自己开始的想法。

主体段2  
In the second place,it is also apparent that these contents of violence online will lead to the psychological issues among the under-aged groups,most of whom tend to be timid generally,and these will cast a shadow on their psychology.They,then in chain reaction ,may become scared of communicating with others around,which may cause even more problems in circulation.For instance（2个论据中至少有1个论据是带例子）,some children（非特指第三人称）,after watching some online films or news reports of violence cases happening at school, will refuse to go to their primary school where it is perfectly safe actually.In fact,these psychological burdens accompany them for an extended period of time,even the whole life, which requires our awareness.

双边讨论

As a valid argument held by me,firstly,it is indisputable that… + 一个初步的理由+1-2句进一步分析论证，可以使用if,because,so,which,that,although,while等等方法。For example（第一论据）,… in addition,第二论据，这样就是略写。
（讨论类可以有让步：Of course,we also need to say that … + 从反面多元化地论证一句就可以，再加上一个反驳回来的句子:However,…这里的句子，让你又回到开头正面论证）

For the statement on the opposite side of the dispute,I deem it rational since …(这里分析另一个说法的合理性)，后面再加解释延展论证，
还是可以用到because,if,so,as a result,when,which,that等等方法来分析解释。 For instance,…moreover此段第二个论据的开始，前面论据详写，后面略写。

开头段：
Nowadays,more and more teenagers are using cell phones,and cell phone sales to young people have greatly increased.(引出话题)There is some debate about whether(宾语从句) cellphones are dangerous for teenagers.Some people believe they add to teenagers’ social problems while others feel they make their lives safer and more conveninet.摆明矛盾问题（开头没有明确观点，所以没有第三层次，后面过度给省略了，因为前面的文字很多了已经）

主体段1：
(主题句)Mobile phones can have some serious social risks.Some teenagers have become the target for cell phone bullying,and this can be very unpleasant and even lead to suicide in extreme cases.In addition,cell phone photos can be a problem.If teenagers use their phones to take inappropriate photos,these could be posted onto the internet and could cause serious problems.（两个论据，基本没有分出主次）

主体段2：
However,cell phones can also make teenagers’s lives safer because they allow them to be in contact with their parents or the police in an emergency.Parents can also check on their teenagers and find out where they are and what they are doing.For example,if a teenager has been drinking alcohol at a party,he or she can use his/her cell phone to call his/her parents or a taxi and get home safely.Similarly,teenagers can call for help if they feel threatened while they are away from home.In addition,mobile phones can help teenagers to get directions if they get lost while traveling to their destination.(此段落两个论据明显区分了主次，而且论证方法更为多样)

结尾段：
In conclusion,cell phones can be a risk for teenagers,but they also increase safety.这里明确了观点.Teenagers need to be …

• Some people think learning history in school is important.Others think learning subjects more relevant to life is important.
  Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

开头段：  
（引出话题）The necessity of focusing on history-learning or other courses more related to the daily life has been what the public concentrate on for the past years.（摆明矛盾）Some as supporters of gaining lessons from history would stress its importance,while others claim those which could be more practical in smoothing life are more crucial to take.

(I will present the detailed discussion over both views in the following part of the essay.)

（总体句开始）On the one hand,many benefits can be found regarding surfing the internet with no limit of time and place.Firstly,（论据1开始，详写）（论据1初步分析开始）it brings much convenience to the users.Because of （论据1解释开始）the small size of mobile devices,it is protable and easy to be operated while surfing online.For example,（论据1例子开始）everyone with a smart phone having the fuction of browsing web pages can access any online information almost anywhere,such as on the bus,in the metro or a walking street,anytime,which is hard to be realized by a traditional laptop or desktop computer.In addition, （论据2开始，略写）it could help keep users updated with what is happening in the city,in the country or even around the globe.If（论据2解释开始） they want to check some data or information,they can do it without starting the computer.This is easier and will save them much time.

主体段2（“弊”）：
（总体句开始）However,the drawbacks brought by it should never be forgot,either.To begin with,（论据1开始，详写）（论据1初步分析开始）users’ privacy may be leaked due to the spy program or hacker skills.If （论据1解释开始）one can go online anywhere anytime,it means the information in his/her phone is exposed to other users with electronic techniques who can use the professional knowledge to hack the phone or pad to steal the information secretly.For example,（论据1例子开始）while shopping,some can link up to the wifi in the shopping mall,which may be dangerous to them because the free internet service there can be a trap.So,（论据1局部总结句开始）it could be dangerous for such users to be linked to the internet in any place.`Besides,（论据2开始，略写）…

• An increasing number of people are changing carrers during the working life.
  What do you think the reasons?
  Do you think it is a positive or a negative development?

We are no longer free to depend on a single occupation,fewer people wish to work the same job day in and day out.Young workers are generally attracted by high salary and self-improvement in new job opportunities.Further,many enterprises have been experienced economic downturn,thus carrer-changing is sometimes inevitable.

Some people argue that all experimentation on animals is bad and should be outlawed.

However, others believe that important scientific discoveries can be made from animal experiments.

Can experimentation on animals be justified? Are there any alternatives?

Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge and experience.

组合

• The young people in the workforce and changing their jobs or career every few years.What do you think are the reason?Do you think the advantages outweigh the disadvantages?

主体段2：  
On the one hand,many benefits can be found regarding replacing occupation regularly by the young .

Firstly,it allows the young to try errors as soon as possible.Because a large number of individuals have totally no ideas about whether the current job is suitable perfectly.

For example,Someone had graduated from the university and he/she really wanted to find a job relate to their own majors,some students of Computer Science really want to have a job in international companies such as Apple、Facebook、Google.

They worked on that way and gained a job luckily ,but a few days later they found that they do not enjoy the job,then they choose to quit the job,so they have a change to find their appropriate job.

In addition, it could keep young people brave and independent with what is happening in the office or deal with their colleages.

If they get angry when they think they are being treated disrespectfully or unfair,then they may not tolerate that and fire the boss.

It is beneficial to acquire a better place where people can work harmoniously.

主体段3：  
However,the drawbacks brought by it should never be forgot,either.

In the first place,People who change the job or career frequently cannot find their next job easily. 
If someone did that, it means reduceing their loyalty in the, then they will have some troubles possibly.

For example someone quits the job immediately because she/he cannot tolerate the unfair stuff or something like that, so his/her resume will be rejected by the next interviewer by the faithfulness,it seems like their work experience is unstable.

So the hireling should keep staying in a same company as long as they can.Besides,there is an important harmful behavior in the office which is heart of glass.

It means people who cannot endure the disadvantageous things in the work area is weak and do not have the ability to survive alone,especially for those who live in the mega city ,and it is harmful to self-growth.

they’ll feel peaceful and comfortable.

PART 2-3

有一些话题卡的素材可以共用，融会贯通一下，
PART 2有些地方与写作考试中的大作文有相似之处。

PART 2中的结尾段一般均为总结性的一句话，可以横向复用，套路如下：
【Summary 总结】
In a word/To summarize,__ (1) __ not only because (of) __ (2) __ but also because (of) __ (3) __ .

一般将话题的核心思想/点题句放到第1处，例如：
I would like to meet her …
I felt happy about this …
I’d like to buy it …
It impresses me …

之后将主体段中提到过的若干方面中的任意2个方面，
作为总结性的词汇&短语放到第2、3处即可。

because of 接名词性短语，because 接句子。

人物类（最简单）

人物题的出题概率较低，人物类的口语素材可以互相平移，
如果讲世界名人的话要小心，因为考官也许知道这个人，
会很敏感的知道你说的内容是否准确，
如果不是世界名人，那就可以胡编乱造，只要用词准确即可。

如果是名人，不要说宗教类或类似于川普这样的人物，
因为你不知道考官的立场，可能会得罪考官，不要聊敏感话题。

答题结构：
1.引入
开头句，简单一句话，不用花很多心思，告诉考官who，这个人是谁。

As for appearance,Liu Wen is a gorgeous woman who’s almost 178cm high with a hot and slender body/figure.

“分”（脸型+发型+其他特征+主观感受）
客观描述之后再加上一些主观判断，给考官的感觉是有感情的语言、是由变换梯度的，
有层次感，否则只是流水账，考官是听不下去的。

Everybody called her Mrs.T.She taught us for every subject,so she taught us English,maths,writing,and actually I can't remember what else!

I guess what I used to enjoy most about her classes was her personality and the fact that she cared about all of her students,even the naughty ones.I remeber her dughter lived in America and she used to send over American sweets and chewing gum for Mrs.T to give to the good students.All the students tried to be really good to get that reward!

6.5分：

Well, the most impressive advertisement is absolutely the one released by Apple decades ago. 

As a matter of fact, it was not targeting at a certain product but a key concept of Apple, the company and its culture.
 
I was firstly attracted to it years ago cuz it got millions of “thumb-up”s on Youtube, you know, the video website.

It was more like a documentary rather than a commercial, and when I clicked in, my world was rocked!

This one-minute ad featured black-and-white footage of 17 iconic 20th century personalities, including Albert Einstein, BobDylan, Martin Luther King, John Lenon, Pablo Picasso, etc. 

Eventually, it ended with an image of a young girl opening her closed eyes, as if making a wish.
 
As the video was aired, you can also hear the lines going, honestly I can’t remember every single word of it, but, it was like : “Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently --they're not fond of rules... 

You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they changethings... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think thatthey can change the world, are the ones who do.”
 
see? you know what I mean, a real thought-provoking ad!
 
I can still remember that I thought it should be “differently” instead of “different”， so I googled it, it turn out that Steve Jobs has got his own explanation. 

This is exactly “think different” ！
 
I really like this advertisement, it is a masterpiece, for its design, it creativity, also, for the ones who “think different”!

Today I'm gonna talking about my favorite sport which is kind of exciting 
、challenging and dangerous.Skiing is truly a brave guy's game because players get hurts easily.

We have a skiing group so we usually have fun together in the ski-resort located in Hebei province at the weekends or on the holidays.  

I enjoy going skiing for various reasons.Normally I'm occupied with daily issues.Then skiing offers a golden opportunity to eliminate pressure.

Besides,it's a good chance to recognise new friends which means improve my social life.

What's more,one of the main benefits of skiing is that we can jump or do some kinds of moving actions if we like,it was like break the rules,that's the amazing part,pretty cool,right?

Another thing I learn from skiing is that it enhances my tolerance for cold.  
So basically skiing enriches my life,so that's the reason why I love this sport so badly.

The Pursuit of Happyness is one of the best films I’ve ever seen in my entire life.

I’ll watch this moive in my laptop as a pick-me-up When I feel depressed and it never fails to lift my spirits.

The reason why I recommend it to all my friends is I think it’s a film that everyone should see at least once in their lives. 

In this movie,the protagonist and his family had fallen on hard times.

He finds himself in a difficult situation when his wife leaves him and he’s stuck raising their young child on his own.

He almost gives up when he loses his apartment、money and job.

But through study and hard work,he’s able to change himself and the fate of his family.

The main character continued to 
persevere even when it seemed like the whole world was against him.

I'm going to talk about the time when I went to the second highest restaurant in Beijing with my dream girl.
She was my co-worker and I used to sit next to her,coz we have a lot in common,so we have become the best companions for hanging out.

It happened in the last winter I could still remember that it was on a Saturday evening,After the skiing I just asked her whether she would like to have dinner with me, then she said of course, why not.

The restaurant is on the top floor of a 80-storey building which is square-shaped and wrapped in glass on all sides. 

When we step into the restaurant, it’s kind of dim.It's decorated in a western style with gorgeous wall papers and French windows.

It offers a great selection of dishes such as Chinese food、Western Food and Japanese Food and Western Food is the restaurant's specialty which is also my favourite. I can't really remember what we else ate,but the seafood was tasty,oh by the way,we ordered a bottle of France wine also. 

The waiters are considerate and enthusiastic, which makes us feel like eating at home.

I can hear the classic background music and there's a faint fragrance lingering in the restaurant.

We spent hours at the restaurant,talking,eating and laughing,we all shared our stories together and wished us good luck for the future.

We really had a great time,it was like a getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city centre.

In a word,I felt unforgettable about this special meal not only because of my dream girl, but also because of the high price. 

追问：

1. Do you think having dinner at home is a good idea?

I don't think so.I prefer eating in restaurants to eating at home,because you don't have to do the dishes afterwards.

2. Do young people like to spend time with their families or friends?
3. What do you think are the benefits of having dinner together?
4. Do you think people are less willing to cook meals by themselves these days,compare to the past?
