As the saying goes， you don’t know what happiness is until you lose it’ you don’t know whathealth is until you are ill. “Health is of vital importance to life” soundslike a cliche to everyone， but it is absolutely true.

The negligence of the delicatebalance of your body and soul， the harmful habits such assmoking， excessive drinking and burningmid-night oil will catch up with you someday. How many big plans areinterrupted by bad health! Even a normal life is unimaginable without theguarantee of health.

First， hold an active and optimisticattitude toward life and maintain a mental well-being. Second， live a regular life and keep a balanced diet. Anyway， a healthy life is within reach when you begin to adjust your mind andbody.

图表作文就是升级版的看图说话，在大学英语四级考试中，看图作文出现的概率相对来说要小一些，所以考生平时练习得也少一些，考试时就不容易把握住写作技巧，针对这个问题在此为大家总结了图表作文写作的一些技巧，希望对大家有帮助。

图表作文不像其他作文一样题干会给出提纲，我们需要看图来寻找信息确定文章写作思路，这无形中又增加了难度，尽管图表作文与一般作文有很大不同，但是基本的写作思路还是可以归结为以下三个步骤。

简要描绘图画直观内容

写好图表作文的第一步就是要把自己眼睛直观看到的图画内容简单的描述出来，这点在题干中也有强调。如果考生英语水平一般，无法组织好自己的语言，在对图画内容进行描述时，可以饮用图画中人物的对话。此外，这一段的描述简要描述即可，不用发散和深挖。这样一来，如果考生没看懂图画内容也可以照抄题干。

阐明观点并深层探讨

图画作文的观点一般在题干中都会清楚地给出来，考生在写作中除了需要看懂图画中的对话还要仔细审清题干，在写作过程中，考生阐明观点之后的思路与一般的六级英语作文提纲型写作一致，针对作文的观点可以先举例说明现象、然后再探讨导致现象的原因以及该现象可能导致的后果等;还可结合数字、研究、名言等材料对这个观点进行论证和深层探讨。总之，这一段就是要考生来发散和深挖内容。

总结陈述观点并给出合理建议

跟一般的提纲作文一样，图画作文的最后也要对全文进行观点总结，考生还要根据不同的图画内容和主题给出相应的建议或者评价，这一点有点类似解决问题型的作文结尾。对于第三部分的写作，考生一般都很熟悉，无论哪种作文，除了书信体以外，作文结尾一段都会要求考生给出自己的观点或意见，图画类的也一样。

英语四六级考试改革说明现在考试也开始注重创新和改变，所以作文类型也会灵活多变，不会仅仅拘泥于传统的提纲写作，考生在复习时要时刻保持对创新的热情，做到无论考试有什么变化，自己都能有所准备。

掌握了这些图表类作文的写作技巧大家就算入门了，除了这些技巧之外，考生平时依然不能放松语法和词汇的复习，希望大家考试顺利过关!

四级作文是英语四级考试中的一个难点，2013年英语四级考试临近，参加英语四级的考生们最关心的就是2013英语四级作文预测了，为考生们准备了2013四级作文预测：感恩，希望这些2013英语作文预测能对考生们有所帮助。

On Cultivating the Sense of Gratitude

On college campuses across the nation, there is a noticeable phenomenonthat we cannot afford to ignore: far too many young college students lack thesense of gratitude, one of the countless traditional virtues of this ancientland with a splendid civilization spanning over 5,000 years. These young adultswere not and are not aware of the huge importance of expressing gratitude tothose who once helped them, from teachers to parents and so forth。

Personally, I deem that the root cause of students without a graceful heartis that they receive an education not valuing the moral sphere. I stronglybelieve that joint efforts from folks across society are the final remedy forthis social headache. As young university students of the new era, we shouldmake our own contributions to this cause. Imagine a world without the sense ofgratitude. This kind of world is doomed to failure. Simply put, we should joinour hands to heighten our awareness of fostering a graceful heart. Only in thisway can we build our society into a harmonious one. My fellow students, I begyou to act from now on.

一、用于作文开头的万能模板：

1、Many people insist that... 很多人(坚持)认为……

这句话乍看没亮点，但将众人皆知的"think"换为"insist"有没有觉得高大上了许多?

2、With the development of science and technology, more and more people believe that... 随着科技的发展,越来越多的人认为……

这个可是小编当年的"杀手锏"啊，虽谈不上洋气，但正确率百分百啊，还超好记!

3、A lot of people seem to think that... 很多人似乎认为……

"think"终于闪亮登场，但"seem to"为整个句子增添了点婉转之感，这种客观的方式貌似较受老外(尤其腐国人)喜爱。

二、引出不同观点的万能模板：

1、Peoples views on... vary from person to person. Some hold that... . However, others believe that.... 人们对……的观点因人而异。有些人认为.....然而其他人却认为……

看这个长度就已然鹤立鸡群。其实，也是一个蛮简单也好记的模板。

2、Attitudes towards (drugs) vary from person to person. 人们对待吸毒的态度因人而异。

乍一看，跟上句的开头神似，其实就是省略掉了"peoples"，不仅清爽而且好像高端了一些。

3、People may have different opinions on... 人们对……可能会有不同的见解。

又是一个婉转的句子，展示其客观性。

4、There are different opinions among people as to... 关于……人们的观点大不相同。

"different"虽拉低了水准，但"as to"又拯救了回来。

5、Different people hold different attitudes toward (failure). 对(失败)人们的态度各不相同。

这句话貌似亮点不多，顶多一个"hold"，但也是安全牌，容易理解。

三、得出最终结论的万能模板：

1、Taking all these factors into consideration, we naturally come to the conclusion that... 把所有这些因素加以考虑，我们自然会得出结论……

很完全的答法，"take sth into consideration"短语的应用，加分。

2、Taking into account all these factors, we may reasonably come to the conclusion that... 考虑所有这些因素，我们可能会得出合理的结论……

"Take into account sth"短语似乎又比上句的"take sth into consideration"提升了一个层次。

3、Hence/Therefore, wed better come to the conclusion that... 因此，自然我们得出以下结论。。。

"Hence"一词用在文章中大气吧，但别平时口语中用，否则即使老外也用一种看老古董的眼神看你。。。

再特意提一句："wed better"在这里不是“不得不”或“最好”的意思，而是一种自然而然，水到渠成的得出结论。

4、There is no doubt that (job-hopping) has its drawbacks as well as merits. 毫无疑问，跳槽有优点也有缺点。

短语"there is no doubt that"上线，同时运用我们的老朋友"as well as"增加看点。

5、All in all, we cannot live without... But at the same time we must try to find out new ways to cope with the problems that would arise. 总之，我们没有……是无法生活的。但同时，我们必须寻求新的解决办法来对付可能出现的新问题。

这句话一般用于作文结尾，属万能句式，句式较为简单，方便操作。

Besides, the carbon emission from natural gas increases, from 5 million tons in 2000 to 18 million tons in 2020.Many reasons account for the variation in carbon emission. Firstly, people might cut the amount of coal they use and increase the use of natural gas since natural gas is a “cleaner” fuel than coal or oil. Secondly, because of the undertaking of energy-saving project, efforts have been made to raise the efficiency of energy utilization. What’s more, since the earth is getting warmer, large attention has been paid to the importance of environmental protection.

Third, people should try to pay their balance in full every month, or they will be charged interest and have negative effects on their credit scores.

题目： Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a short essay based on the picture below. You should comment on the role of mobile phone in peoples communication. You are required to write at least 120 words but no more than 180 words.

参考范文: The Role of Mobile Phone in Peoples Communication

The popularity of smartphones has exerted great influence on the way people communicate, so much so that an increasing number of individuals contend that face-to-face communication is being replaced by texts and images on the mobile phone.

There are more than one angle to consider this phenomenon. On one hand, it is pleasantly acknowledged that smartphones shorten the distance between families and friends. Even people from different sides of the globe can share pictures, feelings and thoughts through various types of apps on the phone, thus building a long-distance connection. On the other hand, as the picture warns us, too much smartphone addiction interferes with peoples real-life communication. Statistics show that over 70 percent of face-to-face communication consists of facial expressions and body language, which is why people should stay away from mobile phones when they have the chance to actually talk and communicate with others.

In a word, mobile phones act as an appropriate platform where people can always stay in tough however long the distance is, but a wise man should know when to put down his phone.

一篇优秀的英语作文在内容和语言两方面应是一个统一体，任何一方面的欠缺都会直接影响到作文的质量。然而，很多考生在写作中或者由于粗心大意，或者由于基本功不扎实而经常出现名词不变复数、第三人称单数不加s，前后不一致，以及时态语态、句子完整性等方面的错误。

1.审题不清

如2004年中考作文要求写一项最喜欢的课外活动，有些考生将作文的主题定位为“我最喜欢的活动”，偏离了“一项、课外活动”这一主题。依据作文的评分原则，若文章内容不切题，则不管语言如何规范、用词如何准确，都会被判为零分。

2.拼写错误

拼写是考生应该具备的最起码的基本功，但在考生的作文中却经常能发现很多拼写错误。有拼写错误的作文肯定会被酌情扣分，而且有大量拼写错误存在的作文不仅体现出语言基本功差，同时也直接影响内容的表达，通常会降低作文的档次。

3.名词单复数问题：

误Myfatherandmymotherisallteacher.

正Myfatherandmymotherarebothteachers.

4.缺少动词

在汉语中没有动词的句子是允许的，但英语中每个完整的句子都必须有动词来构成，如：“我累了。”这个句子没有动词作谓语，而用形容词，但英语形容词不能作谓语，一定要写成：I‘mtired.

误IhappyIcancometoBeijingZoo.

正IamhappyIcancometoBeijingZoo.

误Theapplescheap.I’lltakesome.

正Theapplesarecheap.I‘lltakesome.

5.缺少介词、冠词等

还有一些考生因为没有熟练掌握介词或者冠词的用法，不了解中英文语言习惯的不同，也会出现明显的错误，造成丢分现象。

误Becauseheavyrainwecan’tholdthesportsmeeting.

正Becauseoftheheavyrainwecan‘tholdthesportsmeeting.

Write an essay which should cover:

1) describing the drawing below,

2) stating its main idea, and

3) giving your comment

范文1：

The human being differs from the wild beast in that the latter is liable to have a hostile view of others and interact in an unreasonable and aggressive manner. Primitive humans might have acted in such fashion, but civilized humans should cultivate more appropriate behaviors.

In the drawing above, a man carrying a large load accidentally steps on a womans foot. Given that he gracefully apologizes, the woman both accepts his apology and assures him not to worry.

The man and woman depicted interact with each other in a courteous and compassionate manner. The woman understands the man did not intentionally step on her foot, and therefore whether or not she is in pain, she does not attack or blame him. Because she is able to view the situation from his perspective, conflict is diverted. Mutual understanding such as this is a fundamental aspect of civilized society.

Some people tend to think the worst of others and become angry over even the smallest of matters, regardless of how their own actions are disturbing in turn. Such intolerance only leads to more conflict. Disrespecting or mistreating people not only inflicts pain upon others, but can also harm ones own conscience and attitude.

图画作文是近年大学英语四级写作中出现频率较高的一类文体,考生要特别加以重视。众所周知，题目所给出的图画必然反映了一定的社会现实或者揭露出某种社会现象。相比其他的文体而言，这类作文难度较大，既要求考生通过文字形式分析出图画内容，又要将图中所包含的的思想内容准确地表达出来。为此，应届毕业生网就此类作文写作步骤予以如下几方面的指导和点拨。

一、审题立意

四级作文写作过程中最关键的步骤就是审题，不仔细审题就会很容易使作文跑题，因此这是必不可少的第一步。此步骤要注意两点：一是分析题目和图画，确定文章的命题类型，抓住中心思想，联想此作文要求的写作主题。二是进一步确定给定的题材及此作文要考查的重点内容。也就是说，通过审题，考生要对作文谈论的主要话题心中有数。

二、组织结构

审题之后，根据分析的结果草拟提纲并组织安排段落，确定文章的整体结构。一般而言，考生可将图画作文转化为三段式提纲作文。开始段描述图画内容；中间段解释图画所反映出来的深层意义；结尾段引出结论，总结全文。各段的主题句要条理清晰，以使自己要表达的内容有更好的把握。每段的重点都应集中于描述图画规定的内容。选用的词句应紧扣图画主题、突出重点、前后连贯、表达清楚。

三、检查修改

考试过程中，很多考生由于紧张、仓促等原因，很容易犯一些简单的错误。因此，最后留出几分钟时间来修改所写内容是很有必要的。然而，切忌大幅度地对作文惊醒修改，因为这样会破坏卷面整洁，影响阅卷老师对试卷的印象。修改时可以从两点着手：

语法方面。包括时态是正确、名词单复数是否对应、被动主动语态是否正确、主谓是否一致等。

词汇方面。包括连接上下句或段落的关联词、固定搭配、及物不及物动词的使用、习惯用语是否使用正确等。同时，单词拼写错误和标点误用都是扣分点，考生应尽量避免此类错误。

综上所述，四级写作需要遵循上述步骤，即审题立意、组织结构、检查修改。祝考生顺利通关！

【点评】

这篇文章是一篇非常成功的求职信。首段表明了自己对经理助理这一职位的渴望，其中包括了自己如何得知这一职位的，而后说明自己的条件符合要求，引起下段。次段分五句，说明自己在专业上是个尖子生，并指出对于其他课程自己做得同样出色，为将来的工作奠定了坚实的基础;后两句说明自己参加了各种学校活动，培养了多方面的能力。第三段首句说明自己非常希望能早日获得面试的机会;次句说如果对方太忙，可以打电话联系;末句对对方表示感谢，是一句客套话。

首段中的keen表示“热切的”， parallel这里做动词，表示“与……相当，比得上”。第二段首句中的specialized area表示“专业领域”;第二句中的excel是不及物动词，表示“突出，超常，胜过他人”;第三句中的edge表示“优势”;第四句中的a variety of等于various,表示“多种多样的”;第五句中的teamwork spirit表示“团队精神”，interpersonal skills表示“人际交往的能力”。

英语四级成绩在500分及以上可以报考口语; 六级成绩在425分及以上可以报考口语。

大学英语四级考试425分可以报考大学英语六级考试。

◆英语四级多少分算过?及格线是多少?

全国英语四级改革之后，报道成绩满分为710分，凡考试成绩在220分以上的考生，由国家教育部高教司委托“全国大学英语四六级考试委员会”发给成绩单，不设及格线。但全国英语四六级规定“英语四级成绩达到425分以上(含425分)者，可以报考英语六级”。一般认为英语四级的及格线是425分。对于招聘企业来说，分数越高自然更受青睐。

◆英语四级多少分属于优秀呢?

四级考多少分算高分?每个人的看法不同,满分是710，肯定分越高，越优秀， 有网友也说道：起码要550，550可以参加口试。但是小编这里建议是目标要按照自己水平定，别给自己太大压力。将目标定得比实际水平略高，这样比较好。

◆四级要考多少分才能参加口试?

2005年6月及以后的纸笔或网考四级成绩为500分以上(含500分)。

写作是对同学们英语综合能力的考查，是最能体现大家英语水平的一种检测方式。学生在写作的过程当中经常会暴露一些弱点、犯一些错误。今天，我们对大家英语作文中的常见错误进行简要归纳，并举以实例，大家在今后的英语写作中要尽量避免这些错误的发生。

一.名词

写作中，学生们常把握不好名词的数、所有格以及一些集合名词的用法。

1.Hegavemeaverygoodadviceyesterday.

句中的a要去掉，因为advice是不可数名词。一些汉语概念为可数的词在英语中却是不可数的，表示数量时在要其前加apieceof，类似的词有：news,bread,work,paper,chalk,furniture,information等等。

2.Thatgirllovesreadingbook.

可数名词单数不能孤零零地放在句子里，或前面加冠词，或将其变为复数。此处最好变为books.

3.Hewentintoabooksshopandboughtadictionary.

一般表示有生命的东西的名词的所有格用’s，如mymother’scar,而此处适宜用名词修饰名词，改为abookshop.

4.MyfamilyiswatchingTV.

一些集合名词如看成一个整体，则用单数的谓语动词，如Myfamilyisahappyone.如果强调集合中每个个体的个人行为，则用复数的谓语动词。此处看电视是个体行为，应把is改为are。类似的词有：team,class,audience等。

5.Iboughtsomepotatosandtomatosatthesupermarket.

中学阶段，以“o”结尾的名词中有四个词变复数时要加es，它们是tomato,potato,Negro,hero;其余的都加s变为复数。

6.Thishasnothingtodowiththeirbelieves.（这和他们的信仰没关系。）

以f,fe结尾的词变为复数时一般去f,fe加ves，如knife—knives,

thief—thieves;而roof和belief直接加s变为复数。所以应把believes改为beliefs.

二.冠词

7.Thebosswantstohireanusefulperson.

用a还是an，取决于后面单词音标中的第一个音，如为元音用an，为辅音用a。useful的第一个音是辅音所以应把an改为a。类似的，我们说aEuropeancountry.

8.Planeisamachinethatcanfly.

plane为可数名词单数，不能单独放在句中，应在其前加冠词或把它变为复数，而本句后有amachine,因此只能在其前面加a，变为Aplane。

9.Heplayedapianoatthepartyyesterday.

把a改为the，因为乐器前用定冠词。

10.Themachinewasinventedin1920s.

在in后加the，因为表示年代用in加the再加几十的复数，如在八十年代inthe80s。

11.XiaoHongwenttoschoolbythebuseveryday.

去掉the，因为表示交通方式用by直接加交通工具。

三.代词

使用代词时请注意其单、复数，主、宾格以及形容词性物主代词和名词性物主代词的用法。

12.Heisoneofthosespeakerswhomakehisideasperfectlyclear.

定语从句的先行词是thosespeakers，为复数，因此从句中的指示代词应为复数，应把his改为their。

13.Whomdoyouthinkhasleftthelightson?

放在疑问句特殊疑问词后的doyouthink/believe/guess/imagine/suppose等都不参与句子成分。本句中去掉doyouthink后缺的是主语，应把Whom改为Who。

14.ThebosspretendednottoseeJohnandI.

John和I在句中都做的宾语，应把I改为me。

15.Thesebooksaremine；thoseinthebagareher.

her是形容词性物主代词，后面应该加名词books，或把her改为hers。

四.数词

16.Therearefourteenhundredsstudentsinourschool.

hundred/thousand/million/score/dozen等词前有具体数字时后不加s，前面没有具体数字时在其后加s和of，表示大约几百几千的概念。如two

hundredstudents（两百个学生），hundredsofstudents（成百上千个学生）。例句中应把hundreds改为hundred。

17.Theirschoolistwiceaslargerasourschool.

表倍数关系的as...as中间只能用形容词或副词的原级。因此应把larger改为large.

18.Today’shomeworkisafive-hundred-wordscomposition.

几个单词由连字符连接而组成的复合形容词中的名词只能用单数，所以把five-hundred-words改为five-hundred-word.

19.TwothirdofthestudentsinourschoolarefromAmerica.

英语表达中分数的分子用基数词，分母用序数词，分子大于一时分母后要加s，所以就把third改为thirds.

五.形容词和副词

形容词和副词容易被误用，形容词和副词的比较级和最高级也是应注意的重点。

20.Thepatientappearednervouslywhenhetalkedtothedoctor.

appear在此是个系动词，其后应接形容词作表语。所以应把nervously改为nervous.

21.Theartistworkedhardlytofinishhisdrawingsontime.

此句需要一个副词来修饰，hardly是副词，但意为“几乎不”，hard也可以是副词，表努力，因此把hardly改为hard.

22.Thisshirtismorecheaperthanthatone.

more只构成比较级，而不能修饰比较级。因此把more去掉。

23.Heisthemostsuccessfulofthetwobusinessmen.

两者相比较时，比较级前用定冠词，三者或三者以上才用most，因此把most改为more.

24.Heworkslessharderthanheusedto.

表不如?...时用less加上形容词和副词的原级，因此把harder改为hard.

25.Thebookisfairlymoreinterestingthanthatone.

fairly只能修饰形容词和副词的原级，可以修饰比较级的副词或短语有：much,even,still,far,alot,alittle,abit,any,no,byfar,rather等，因此把fairly改为rather.

26.Thisisasaninterestingastoryastheoneinthemagazine.

as?as中间的词序是as加上形容词加上a(n)加上名词再加上as，因此应改为asinterestingastoryastheone.

27.Theweatherhereisnicerthan.

同样的事物才能相比较，weather和不具有可比性，因此应改为Theweatherhereisnicerthanthatof.

29.Iwouldrathertakeatrainthanwentbybus.

这个词组为wouldratherdo?thando?，因此把went改为go.

30.Isthereinterestinganythingatthemeeting?

修饰anything,something,everything,nothing的形容词都要放在它们的后面。

31.Ineverhaveseensuchapersonbefore.

像never之类的副词在句中应放在be动词、助动词之后，实意动词之前。因为应改为Ihaveneverseensuchapersonbefore.

32.Thebookisworthtoberead.

beworthdoing意为值得被做。因此改为Thebookisworthreading.

33.Itissurethathewillsucceed.

sure的主语只能为人，而certain的主语可为人和物。因此把sure改为certain.

34.Heisregardedasoneofthebestalivewritersatpresent.

alive为表语形容词，偶尔也做后置定语。因此把alive改为living，或把alive放在writers后面。

35.Idon’tknowthathehasfinishedtheworkyet.

yet用于否定和疑问句，already用于肯定句。把yet改为already.

36.Hesaidnearlynothingatthemeeting.

nearly不与否定词用在同一个句子中，而almost可以。因此把nearly改为almost。

六.介词

37.Heusuallygoestoschoolbyhisfather’scar.

by加上名词表示一种交通方式，中间什么都不加，如bycar,bybus,byplane等；如果名词前有其他的词修饰，则应用除by以外的其他介词，此处把by改为in.

38.Pleasewaitmeattheschoolgate.

wait为不及物动词，需加介词for后才能再跟名词或代词做宾语。

39.HehasbeenmarriedwithBettyformorethantwentyyears.

marry不跟with连用，应把with改为to。

40.Ifinishedtheworkontimeunderthehelpofhim.
