中西方饮食习惯(eating habits)存在极大的差异。在不同于西方那种没人一盘食物的饮食习惯，在中国，菜肴是被放在桌上让大家共同分享的。如果你在中国主人家做客，就要做好有一大桌食物的心理准备。中国人对于自己的烹饪文化(culture of cuisine)感到非常自豪，而且会尽全力去展示自己的好客(hospitality)。而且有时候，中国主人会用他们的筷子把食物夹到你的碗里或者盘子中。这是礼貌的体现。

There are great differences between Chinese and Western eating habits. Unlike the west, where everyone has their own plate of food, in China the dishes are placed on the table and everybody shares. If you are being treated by a Chinese host, be prepared for a table full of food. Chinese are very proud of their culture of cuisine and will do their best to show their hospitality. And sometimes the Chinese hosts use their chopsticks to put food in your bowl or plate. This is a sign of politeness.i

第四篇：大学英语四级写作历年真题与范文

1999.1真题 Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic. Don’t Be Afraid to Say“No”. You should write at least 100 words and you should base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese) below:

1.别人请求帮助时,在什么情况下我们会说“不”

2.为什么有些人在该说“不”的时候不说“不”

3.该说“不”时,不说“不”的坏处

[范文]

Don’t Be Afraid to Say “No”

Sometimes we have to say “No” to others when they ask us for help. Why? One situation may be that we are not capable of doing the things they ask us to do. The other situation may be that we are unwilling to do what they ask us to do, because their requests may be unreasonable or even illegal. On both occasions we should say directly to them: “No”.

But the case is not always the same in our daily life. Some people are afraid to say “No” when they should say so. On the one hand, they are afraid of losing their faces. On the other hand they don’t want to hurt others, such as their family members, relatives, friends or colleagues.

To say “Yes” when you should say “No” will eventually do you some harm. If you say “Yes” but fail to help them in the end because of lack of the ability, they may think you are not worthy of trust. If you help them do something bad or illegal, you will be punished for what you have done. So, don’t be afraid to say “No” if necessary. 1999.6真题

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: Reading selectively or extensively? You should write at least 100 words, and base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese) below:

1.有人认为读书要有选择

2.有人认为应当博览群书

3.我的看法

[范文]

Reading Selectively or Extensively?

Reading selectively or extensively? What is your choice? Perhaps each of us has our choice.

Some people think we should read selectively, for there are so many books for us to read. Thousands of new books are published every day. How can we cover all these books in our limited time? Besides, not all the books are worth reading.

Some people, on the contrary, choose to read extensively. They think that reading extensively can broaden their horizons. Through reading extensively they can learn something about their ancestors; through reading extensively they can get insight of great men. Reading extensively can also enable us to adapt to the fast developing society. Because we are living in a knowledgeexploding society, if we don’t read extensively, we can’t get enough information about the modern world, and we can’t keep pace with the society.

In my opinion, we should read both selectively and extensively. By reading extensively, we can enrich our knowledge of aspects. By reading selectively, we can focus on and learn well the academic knowledge we’ll need in our future work.

How I Finance My College Education?

Every year, thousands of young men enter universities and colleges. It has been a problem for the students and their families how to finance their college education. In fact, the problem can be dealt with in many ways. The most common way is to get all the money from the parents.If their parents can’t produce the tuition and the fees, students can apply a loan from the bank. There is still another way. Students can finance their education by doing some parttime jobs in their spare time.

As for me, my parents can pay the greater part of the tuition and fees for me. So, I won’t have a heavy financial burden, and I can put all my heart into study. I would like to pay the rest by doing a parttime job. Although my parents are able to pay all the tuition and fees for me, I just want to know more about the society by my own working experience. Therefore, I choose this way to finance my college education.

A Letter to A Schoolmate

June 23, 2001 Dear Xiao Wang,

I am glad to hear that you will come to see me during the week long holiday. It has been three years since we graduated from our university. I miss you very much. I even can’t wait to see you.

I’ve made a plan for this holiday. As this is the first time you come to Beijing, I think we’d better have sightseeing around it. We can visit some famous scenic spots and historical sites, such as Summer Palace, The Forbidden City, The Great Wall, etc. We can do some shopping together. There are many splendid markets and plazas in Beijing. The State Library is also a good place for us to go. By the way, since lots of people will go traveling in this holiday, it must be crowded on the train. So you should take care of your luggage. Bring more clothes with you because Beijing is much colder than Kunming at this time. And don’t forget to tell me when you will arrive. I’ll pick you up at the airport.

Miss you!

Yours,

Zhang Ying

[范文]

A Letter to the University President about the Canteen Service on Campus

January 12th, 2002 Dear Mr. President,

I am a student of computer science in our university. I am writing this letter to you to show about the canteen service on campus on behalf of some students of our department.

Firstly, we feel we need more varieties of foods served to the students, which means every student can get the food that he thinks suitable for his taste and his pocketmoney allowance. Secondly, we find it essential to prolong the opening hours of the canteen. A student from a class that ends at 12:00 noon may reach the canteen no sooner than 12:30. However, the fact is that the canteen is closed when he gets there. Thirdly, we are greatly concerned with the dining environment. We feel that student diners are entitled to a better dining environment than what they are having now.

We do hope that the university authority will look into the problems and solve them.

Yours Sincerely,

Li Ming

2002.6真题

Directions: For this part you are allowed thirty minutes to write a composition on the topic Student Use of Computers. You should write at least 120 words and base your composition on the outline given below:

1.上图(图略)所示为1990年、1995年、2002年某校大学生事业计算机的情况,请描述其变化

2.请说明发生这些变化的原因(可从计算机的用途、价格或社会发展等方面加以说明)

3.你认为目前大学生在计算机使用中有什么困难或问题

[范文]

Student Use of Computers

Students tend to use computers more and more nowadays. Reading this chart, we can find that the average number of hours a student spends on the computer per week has increased sharply. In 1990, it has less than 2 hours; and in 1995, it increased to almost 4 hours, and in 2000, the number soared to 20 hours.

Obviously computers are becoming more and more popular. There are several reasons for this. First, computers facilitate us in more aspects of life. Also, the fast developments of the Internet enlarges our demands for using computers. We can easily contact with friends in remote places through the Internet. Besides, the prices of computers are getting lower and lower, which enables more students to purchase them.

However, there still exist some problems, such as, poor quality, out of date designs and so on. And how to balance the time between using computers and studying is also a serious problem.

Anyhow, we will benefit a lot from computers as long as we use them properly. 2002.12真题

Directions: For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write a composition on the topic：It Pays to Be Honest. You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:

1.当前社会上存在着许多不诚实的现象

2.诚实利人利己，做人应该诚实

写作指导：写文章之前，应该先花上一分钟时间好好地审一下题。这是一篇

命题作文，题目是It Pays to Be Honest。其中 “pay to”意为 “有利、值得”。因此文章应围绕“做人诚实非常值得”这一主题展开。在指令中给了中文提纲，所以按照提纲，第一段应介绍当前社会存在着许多不诚实的现象，如商人卖假货欺骗顾客，学生考试作弊欺骗老师等等，同时在这一段应表明自己对这种现象的反感。

第二段提出观点：诚实利人利己，做人应该诚实。并用具体的例子来说明这一点，例子可以是正面的，也可以是反面的。如范文中用的就是“狼来了”的反面例子。最后，结尾应强调做人应该诚实，这是人的基本素质。

[范文]

It Pays to Be Honest

From the mass media and also with our own eyes, we know much dishonest behavior existed in our society. For example, businessmen sell fake products to cheat their customers; students copy others’ homework or download illicit papers from Internet to cheat their teachers; and even worse, some people produce fake medicine that harm the patients. Seeing our society is filled with so many dishonest phenomena, I can’t help asking myself what’s wrong with us.

When we were very young we were taught the importance of being honest. I am sure everyone must still remember that story “A wolf is coming”. In the story the child kept cheating other people that a wolf was coming, but when the wolf really come, nobody trusted his words and he finally suffered his own dishonesty. Also we have heard many stories that people benefit from their virtues of honesty.

So since we have already known being honest benefit both ourselves and other people. Why are many of us still dishonest? I hope everyone must bear in mind that being honest is the basic quality of human beings and then we won’t be afraid of any “wolf”. 2003.6真题

Directions: For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write an eyewitness account of a traffic accident. You should write at least 120 words according to the outline given below in Chinese:

1. 车祸发生的时间及地点

[范文]

An EyeWitness Account of a Traffic Accident

My name is Liming. I am studying at college. A week ago I saw a traffic accident, which is still vivid in my mind.

It was at about 9:00 on Saturday morning, June 15th, when I went out of the university to visit a friend of mine at another university. I was walking leisurely on the sidewalk when I heard a loud crash of two vehicles just at the Tjunction about 10 metres away. Two taxis crashed together. It was a traffic accident.

I went up and found that the two taxis were badly damaged. Both hoofs were out of shape. One door of a car was knocked off and lying on the road. One driver was bleeding and another was shut in the taxi. Some people were trying to help the driver get out of the damaged car. One man was calling the traffic policeman station. A lot of cars were jammed on the road.

From the stopping track on the road, it is clear that the two taxis were driving too fast. But it is just one of the reasons. In my opinion, the taxi drivers are eager to take more passengers and make a little more money. On the other hand, both drivers don’t show concern for one another. Both of them wanted to run in front of another. Therefore, the accident is inevitable. So far, we should let the drivers keep it in their mind that a little slower, a little safer. Taking care of others’ lives means taking care of your own life.

The Day My Classmate Fell Ill

During the SARS period in this spring, the year of 2003, one of my classmates, Liming, was struck down by the virus and was immediately sent to hospital.

The news spread quickly on campus. At first, we were terrified and wandered if we were infected too. However, through our government’s publicity on mass media, we gradually conquered the fear and set out to try our best to help her. Some teachers provided daily necessities while some students recorded the English class contents for him so that Liming could not be left behind. With our care and concern, Liming recovered quickly.

Such an incident teaches us a good moral. Our society is full of love, warm and peaceful, in which people, from man to woman, from individual to individual, lend others a hand. Just like a famous song goes, “the world will turn into heaven only if everyone contributes a little.” And I do believe that it’s my great honor to live in this lovefilled paradise!

A Letter in Reply to a Friend

December 27th, 2003 Dear,

When it comes to which major you should choose, I propose that you apply for the major of English. To begin with, English is the most popular language in the world, which is widely used in all fields such as teaching, translation, and foreign trade and so on. What’s more, it goes without saying that English majors are more likely to find a good job in the tighter and tighter job market.

In order to study at English Department, you have to meet the following requirements. In the first place, you have to spend a lot of time on it, just as the old saying goes, “Practice makes perfect”. In the second place, the basic skills of reading, listening and speaking are necessary, because they are the foundations for your future study. Last but not the least important, you need an intense interest in learning English since “interest is the best teacher.”

As far as the preparation work is concerned, you should first of all review all the required vocabulary. In addition, you’d better spend some time on reading and writing. Only through these measures can you hope to enroll in our university.

Yours

A Brief Introduction to a Tourist Attraction

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Beijing. To begin with, I would like to introduce myself: I am the tourist guide from China Travel Service and it’s great honor to stay here with all of you for a whole day. Just as the old saying goes, “It is always a pleasure to greet a friend from afar”. I wish all of you to enjoy yourselves during this trip.

The following is a schedule of the day. The first spot we are going to visit is the Great Wall, the grandest fortification in ancient China. The next sight to look around is the Ming Tombs, which is one of the bestpreserved tombs for 13 emperors in Ming Dynasty more than three hundred years ago. In the afternoon, we will go for the Summer Palace, the royal park for Chinese ancient emperors.

Currently we are on the way to the Great Wall. Dating back to the seven century B.C., the Great Wall is constructed by respective states for fortifying against invasion of neighboring states. By the reasons of long history and its length, it becomes one of the eight wonders in the world and represents the highest wisdom and crafts. From the top of the Great Wall, we can enjoy a magnificent view of continuous, green trees and blooming wild flowers. It is no doubt that one says, “He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true man”.

Above is my introduction to the Great Wall. If any of you have questions, please feel free to ask me at any time.
