2001年6月真题范文：



Directions: For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write a letter.



Suppose you are Zhang Ying. Write a letter to Xiao Wang, a schoolmate of yours who is going to visit you during the week-long holiday. You should write at least 120 words according to the suggestions given below in Chinese.



1.表示欢迎



2.提出过度假安排的建议



3.提醒应注意的事项



Dear Xiao Wang,



Is it really true? Are you coming to visit me for the upcoming holiday? We have not seen each other for such a long time and I have missed you.



Do you have any plans for what you would like to do? Since you are not familiar with where I live, I can make some recommendations. There are many scenic spots in the suburbs. When you first get here, we could plan a camping trip with some of my classmates. We can also visit the museums which are very interesting. And, we can go shopping! The shopping malls downtown are large and many have discount promotions during the holidays.



What do you think of my recommendations? I should tell you that the weather here is much colder so you should bring a warm overcoat. Please also take care of your belonging during your travel here as there has been much theft reported.



I am looking forward to your visit.



My best wishes.



Yours,



Zhang Ying

Dear Mr. President,



I'm very lucky to attend this world-famous university, but I'm afraid I'm not content with the canteen service on campus.



Firstly, the quality of the dishes should be improved. Undoubtedly, there are a lot of delicious dishes, but all the year, they are the same. More and more students are complaining about eating the same food each day. So I think the most urgent problem is variety.



Secondly, the price is a bit too high. Many of us hope that the canteen can provide us with not only delicious but also cheaper food.



Finally, the environment is so noisy that we can't enjoy our meals in good mood. I suggest that there be some soft music to help us relax.



Those presented suggestions are not just of my own, but also of many other students. We hope our respectable president will pay attention to your suggestions.



By the way, the canteen workers are very patient and always smiling. So I think if our university offers them better conditions, they will offer us better service.



Best wishes,



Yours sincerely,



Li Ming

problem: ship the excess people off to the moon. But



we must keep in head the billions of dollars we might 6. mind

earth's population at its present level, we would



have to blast off into space 7,500 people every hour of



every day of the year.



Why are we spending so little money on space 7. much



exploration? Consider the great need for improving 8. Considering



many aspects of the global environment, one is surely
