大学英语四级出现的说明文题目

1. 英语四级考试一般会出什么题目的作文

下面主要从三个方面介绍一下四级写作的命题特点，即题材，体裁和命题形式。
1. 题材
四级写作的话题，具有很强的实用性和时事性，涉及校园生活、现代科技、社会问题以及对他们的简单理由分析、方案提出。
校园话题：校园浪费、学生会主席竞选、名校校园旅游、选择课程或教师等;
社会问题：当代妇女、淡水资源紧缺、环境、交通、住房、假冒伪劣商品等;
现代科技：电脑之类的现代科技发明等。
2. 体裁
从体裁上讲，写作部分考察的形式有议论文、说明文、记叙描述文和书信演讲类情景应用文。
1)议论文主要分为提纲式议论文和标题式议论文两类。
提纲式议论文根据题材可分为正反观点对比类型和原因现象解释类型。如2006年12月真题就属于正反观点对比类型：
1. 许多人喜欢在除夕夜观看春节晚会;
2. 但有些人提出取消春节晚会;
3. 你的看法。
而2007年12月的真题却属于原因现象解释型的议论文。
1. 各大学开设了各种各样的选修课
2. 学生因为各种原因选择了不同的选修课
3. 以你自己为例…
标题式议论文的主要特点是论证说理，通常以某一名言警句或谚语为题目，要求考生们对其客观真理性加以阐述和论证。如1997年1月真题：
Practice makes perfect
2)说明文主要可以分为阐述主题型、利弊分析型、解决问题型:
阐述主题型的如1991年1月真题：
Bicycles----An Important Means of Transport in China.
1. 为什么自行车在中国这样普及。
2. 和汽车比较。
3. 自行车在中国的前途。
利弊分析型的如1998年1月真题：
Harmfulness of Fake Commodities.
1. 目前社会上有不少假冒伪劣商品(fake commodities)。为什么会有这种现象?
2. 举例说明假冒伪劣商品对消费者个人、社会等的危害。
解决问题型的如2001年1月真题：
How to Succeed in a Job Interview?
1. 面试在求职过程中的作用
2. 取得面试成功的因素：仪表、举止谈吐、能力、专业知识、自信、实事求是. . .
3)应用文写作主要包括演讲词，导游解说词、求职求学信、投诉信和公告通知等(2004年6月的导游词，2005年1月的竞选演说词)。
3. 命题形式
四级作文的命题形式是六种：中英文提纲式、情景式、图表式、段首句式、关键词式及标题式。在所有这六种形式中，提纲式所占比例最高，在80%以上;其次是情景式，2003年6月开始，情景作文大量出现，命题人设定一个情景，让学生用所学的英语去处理一件假定的事情。(如2003年6月的车祸见证书，2003年9月的同学生病)，图表式作文只考过两次(1991年6月 Changes in People's Diet 和 2002年6月Student Use of Computers)。
考生们应在平素的练习中针对每一种体裁和形式作相应的练习以便熟悉各种命题的写作套路和方法。下面以2006年6月大学英语四级考试的作文为例，从审题、段落、句式和选词四个方面探讨英语四级作文的写作方法。
Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic Students Selecting their Lecturers. You should write at Least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese:
1. 有些大学允许学生自由选择某些课程的任课教师;
2. 学生选择教师时所考虑的主要因素;
3. 学生自选任课老师的益处和可能产生的问题。
[范文]
On Students Selecting their Lecturers
With the remarkable reform of higher ecation, students in some universities are entitled to choose their lecturers for certain designated courses for the flexibility and efficiency of their learning practice. This move has been welcomed by some students and has become the focus of students' and teachers' concern as well.
Obviously, there are some factors that students take into consideration when choosing lecturers. First and foremost, the teacher should have a diverse academic background and excel at what he or she teaches. It is because a learned teacher can give students much knowledge in a specific field, help them widen their horizon and at the same time cultivate their potential. Moreover, quite a few students think it is essential that the teacher is humorous and passionate in teaching. The reason is that students will learn quickly and thoroughly when the class is enjoyable and when they are motivated to learn. In addition, a teacher who gives students high marks in exams and papers is preferred.
Students' free choosing of lecturers may have many advantages, such as encouraging students to take an active part in classes and promoting lecturers to improve their teaching quality. Good as selecting lecturers is, it also gives rise to many problems. For one thing, the management of classes may be in a disorder. Some teachers can be so warmly welcomed that the number of the students in his class may be too large while other courses may have few participants. For another thing, schools might end up with lecturers who teach interesting classes and give high scores without much real content. Therefore further attention should be paid to this phenomenon.
解析：
1) 审题。
2006年6月作文的题材是考查校园话题--学生选择任课教师及其利弊分析;就体裁来说是经常考到的提纲式论说文，它要求考生们根据给出的题目(on the topic of students selecting lecturers)和提纲(1. 有些大学允许学生自由选择某些课程的任课教师;2. 学生选择教师时所考虑的主要因素;3. 学生自选任课老师的益处和可能产生的问题)，确定文章的中心思想，然后分段展开论述，表达提纲的主旨。
2) 段落安排。
提纲式论说文仍然符合四级写作的布局要求三段式作文，提纲可以看作是分段点，即：第一段写第一点，第二段写第二点，第三段完成第三点。第一段是引言段，引出现在大学中存在的现象――有些大学允许学生自由选择某些课程任课老师，描述现状，引出主题。With the remarkable reform of higher ecation, students in some universities are entitled to choose their lecturers for certain designated courses for the flexibility and efficiency of their learning practice.
第二段是主体段，解释学生选择老师时所考虑的主要因素，即他们选择什么样的老师和为什么做出这样的选择。根据前面提到的段落写作技巧，第一句话是这一段的主题句，可以对中文提纲进行翻译，并且稍加改动，如Obviously, there are some factors that students take into consideration when choosing lecturers. 然后列举出几个较有代表性的理由，注意一定要在列举的几条理由前面加上表示层次关系的连接词来使文章思路清晰，逻辑层次清楚。如：First and foremost, the teacher should have a diverse academic background and excel at what he or she teaches. It is because…, 接着阐述其它理由，如：Moreover, quite a few students think it is essential that the teacher is humorous and passionate in teaching.
第三段是结尾段，讨论"学生选择老师"这样一个校园话题的好处以及可能产生的问题。先写益处，如Students' free choosing of lecturers may have many advantages, such as…, 然后话题转折提出弊端 Good as selecting lecturers is, it also gives rise to many problems. For one thing …最后一句是结论句Therefore further attention should be paid to this phenomenon
3) 句型变换。
全文长短句交错，句型富于变化。采用以简单句为基础，同时配以复杂句，如定语从句a teacher who gives students high marks…，主语从句 It is essential that… 倒装句Good as selecting lectures is… 分词结构 when choosing lecturers…
4) 词汇运用。
全文用词准确、规范，丰富，如"选择"可以用choose 和 select;使用一些精彩的固定搭配，使文章增色不少，如 end up with, give rise to; 巧用过渡词，使文章衔接自然、紧凑，如first and foremost, moreover, in addition, as, therefore，for one thing等。

6. 近五年的英语四级作文真题题目

预测一

For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: Attend Your Classes Regularly。You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese.

1. 现在大学校园里，迟到、早退、旷课是常见的现象

2. 保证学生的出勤率对大学教育的重要性

3. 作为一个大学生应该怎样做

Attend Your Classes Regularly

Nowadays it is a very common phenomenon that some university students are late for or even absent from classes. And still there are some students who slip out of the classroom before the class is over. Class attendance has become a thorny problem to both the students and teachers.

In fact, it is very important for the students to attend their classes regularly. First, it will ensure you to catch up with the teachers in your learning. That is very helpful to you if you want to do a good job in your study. Second, attending classes regularly is a way of showing respect to your teachers ,too. Your teachers will feel bad if the students do not attend their classes, which, in turn, will affect their teaching and be no good for the students. Third, attending classes regularly will help to form a good habit of punctuality, which is of great importance for the students to do a good job in the future.

Therefore, we university students should form the good habit of attending our classes regularly from now on. And some day we’ll benefit from it.

点评：2008年元月三日，中山大学博士发帖称遭导师虐待；2008年元月四日，中国政法大学爆“杨帆门”事件；近几年，中小学老师或打学生或猥亵学生、体罚学生等各类新闻不断曝光，进而引发了师生关系的大讨论。本预测题为四级考试传统的问题解决型的写作，与校园生活密切相关。

预测二

For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: Students’ Rating of Their Teachers。You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese.

1. 学生给老师打分已经普遍

2. 人们对其持不同态度

3. 我的看法

Students’ Rating of Their Teachers

Nowadays, it has become as common in colleges and universities for students to grade teachers as for teachers to grade students. In some universities students’ rating has even become the only source of information on teaching effectiveness..

This, however, has caused great controversy. Some are in favor of the rating system, They hold that since students attend the teachers’ classes every day, they should have their opinion about their teachers’ effectiveness. Others, on the contrary, are strongly against it. They believe that there is much more to teaching than what is shown on students’ rating forms. Students should not be expected to judge whether the materials they use are up to date or how well the teacher knows about the subject. These judgments require professional knowledge, which is best left for the teachers’ colleagues.

I think students’ rating of their teachers is necessary, but it should be concted in a way that can really shed meaningful light on teachers’ performance. Instead of rating the teachers’ knowledge on the subject, students should be asked to estimate what they have learned in a course, and to report on such things as a teacher’s ability to communicate with students, his or her relationship with students, and his or her ability to arouse students’ interest in the subject.

点评：越来越多的高校采取让学生给老师打分的形式来了解教学反馈，并以此作为促进教学质量的有效手段。对此做法，管理部门及教学双方褒贬不一，看法迥异。本预测题为校园生活热议话题，值得关注。

预测三

3. 如何创造和谐的宿舍生活。

On a Harmonious Dormitory Life

Dormitory life is an indispensable part of college life. But sometimes the harmony in the dormitory be disturbed in one way or another.

As is known to all, a harmonious dormitory life is important to college students and benefits all the members. On one hand, we can have a good rest and put our heart into study. On the other hand, we will have a good mood and enjoy being together.

There are several ways to create and maintain a harmonious dormitory life. Firstly, you have to evaluate your life-style and try to get rid of your dirty habits, if there are any. Secondly, when an annoying situation arises, you’ll just have to learn to tolerate each other and co-exist. Thirdly, you’ll have to share with each other and make good friends.

In conclusion, we should try our best to build a harmonious dormitory life for the sake of good study and good life.

点评：“和谐”成为我们当今社会词频概率最高用词，就社会而言，倡导建立和谐社会；就家庭而言，提倡建设和谐家庭；就校园来讲，则要建立和谐校园；和谐两字似乎无所不在，大学生宿舍生活同样需要和谐。本预测题与四级考试热点密切相关，又为典型的校园生活主题，值得关注。

预测四

Besides, students are free to participate in colorful campus activities and social practice, which are intended for broadening their mind and developing their potential talent.

Currently, both our faculty and students are making every effort to improve the quality of our ecation in the direction of a first-rate university. Thank you.

点评：近几年，随着我国顺利加入世贸组织以及经济全球化步伐的加快，许多国内高校纷纷与国外大学合作办学，教育走向国际化成为人们关注的热点，也是大学生门比较关心的热点问题。本预测题为热议校园生活话题，与2004年旅游景点介绍2006年考查的名校校园开放如出一辙。
预测五

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a letter to a friend who will come to your city to see you. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese:

假设你是李明, 你的一个朋友张伟准备到你所在的城市来旅游，但你有事不能接待。写封信给他，解释你不能接待的原因，并说明你所做的安排。

A Letter to a Friend

Dear Zhang Wei,

I’m glad to know that you are coming to my city ring the summer vacation.

However, I’m afraid there’s some bad news. I’m planning to take part in an international conference to be held in another city ring the time of your visit. All the top scientists in my field will show up at the conference. More importantly, I’m lucky enough to have been selected to give a speech on behalf of my research team at the Conference. I really can’t miss it.

I understand that it’ll be your first time to this city and I’m your only friend here. I’ve asked my roommate to meet you at the airport, and you can stay in my room. He is a very nice person and he will show you around the city. Hope you two will get on well and have a nice holiday!

Yours,

Li Ming

点评：本预测题与2001年6月考查的A Letter to a Schoolmate 类似，所不同是写作提示有所不同，2001年6月作文题是写信对校友来度假表示欢迎并在信中提出建议和注意事项，而本预测题是对朋友来访不能接待，同时在信中说明原因及具体安排，内容不一，但话题相仿，写作思路相似，值得关注。

预测六

For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: Living alone or Living with Roommates? You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese.

1. 有人认为大学里应独自生活

2. 另一些认为大学里应与别人同住

3. 你的看法

Living alone or Living with Roommates

Nowadays, there has appeared a heated discussion among the college students as to whether they should live alone outside the campus or live together with other roommates in the students’ dormitory. Opinions are divided over the matter.

Those who are in favor of Living alone maintain that it is very convenient to live by themselves. They can enjoy absolute freedom in a room of their own. They can have their own timetable without disturbing others. They are also free to equip the room with a personal computer so that they can have easy access to the Internet.

But others argue that living with roommates has attractions of its own. With several students sharing the same room, each person’s experiences can be greatly enriched. They can learn a lot from talking to one another. By learning to tolerate the differences between indivials, they can become more mature.

As far as I’m concerned, I prefer to live with roommates because I love the feeling of belonging. Besides, it is a lot cheaper to live in a dorm than to rent a apartment outside the campus.

点评：本文与校园生活密切相关，也是近年来出现的现象，人们对此的看法各异，2003年后，四级作文考查加大了学校生活类题目的考查，因为这类题材不存在地域的差异，不同地域的同学都有话可说。本预测题即为校园生活类话题，与刚考完的四级作文话题类似，符合命题者出题思路，值得引起重视。

预测八

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay on the topic

Advertisement. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below in Chinese:

1. 广告的作用

2. 广告的形式多样

3. 广告的夸张性

Advertisement

Advertisements are forcing their way into people’s lives. People refer to advertisements in their daily lives because they are consumers. The advertisers are usually manufacturers, retailers and salesmen. Their merchandise needs to be advertised to bring it to the attention to the customers. Thus nearly every proct is advertised in some way. To a large extent, good advertising leads to success while bad advertising can mean failure.

There are many ways to advertise and ‘ads’ come in different forms. Newspapers carry advertisements. Some procts are publicized on TV and radio which bring them into notice of a wide audience. Billboards also carry advertising. Advertising is a big instry now and many agencies have been set up to furnish a variety of forms..

However, advertising is not always truthful. A proct is often misrepresented. The advertiser exaggerates the benefits of the merchandise he wants to sell. Thus, he misrepresents the truth. The consumer falls victim to such advertising. Millions of people have bought advertised procts and have been dissatisfied with them。

点评：这是一篇说明文，用说明的表达方式来解说事物，阐明事理。写好说明文，不仅要抓住特征，注意条理，而且要巧妙运用说明方法，像下定义、举例子、作比较、分类别、列数字、打比方等
