参考答案
Great thinkers like Plato and Aristotle shared the same idea that myth
should enjoy a superior status in education. Even modern thinkers to
certain extend agree with that idea as they reached a conclusion that
myth partly reflected and satisfied the inner desires of human beings.
Those fantastic events in myths resemble likeliness to our dreams or
daydreams. Still differences exist. Such as dream reflects social
pressure we faced, but it offers no solution. On the contrary, myth
goes the opposite way. Unlike dreams, Myths are the symbolic
projections of a people’s hope, values, fears and aspirations. And
any myth is classic.
Task 2: Essay Writing (60%)
Directions:
In recent years China has witnessed a drastic increase in the annual enrollment of university
students. While some hail it as an achievement of historical significance that marks the beginning
of popularizing China's education of higher learning, others dismiss it as nothing but an
educational "great leap forward" that will do more harm than good to the quality of college
education in China. Write an essay of 500 - 600 words unequivocally expressing your stand on
this issue. Whatever position you take,, make sure to justify your decision. Give a title to your
essay.
参考范文
In China a saying goes like this: It takes ten years for a tree to grow to its full height, but a
hundred for qualified personnel to mature. From this sentence we can infer the high status of
education in our country.
In recent years China has witnessed a drastic increase in the annual enrollment of university
students. The existence of this phenomenon should be due to the following reasons. First, the
number of college students only takes a small share in the whole population. As time requires, we
need more educated citizens to take part in the construction of China. The current college students
are far from enough. Second, compared with other powers, like Britain and America, China has
much less college students. This situation doesn’t fit China’s image as a big power. As a result, a
drastic increase in the annual enrollment of university students emerged as the time requires.
Around the issue of enrollment increase, people’s reactions are different. They can roughly be
categorized into two groups: advocators and opponents. Some stress the significance of this move,
while others emphasize their worry about the qualification of college education. Both sides have
their reasons. While in my opinion, the increase of enrollment is inevitable, but we can’t be hasty
in doing it.
First of all, as I mentioned above, the increase of enrollment is the requirement of China’s
development. We need more workers, more engineers, more businessmen, etc. And the increase
would offer what we need in a comparatively short time. The advantage of it cannot be neglected.
