Attaining Success in College

Succeeding in college is not only important to getting and education, but also crucial in this day and age

to success in the work place. To me, the three most important things for attaining a successful college

experience are having smart classroom conduct, taking advantage of campus resources, and making college

the first priority.

Making good use of campus resources is also of great importance to college success. The school library

has many resources for the growth of the students’ mind. With computers and copy-machines for individual

use, computer labs and writing labs are there not just for learning purposes but also for actual help with

writing papers. The “office hours” will help the students build a close relationship with their professors and

give them access to the professors’ mind. From the professors the students can acquire possible extra

information that may put them ahead of their study. All these resources are free, since they are funded by

student tuitions. So taking good advantage of the resources can only make the students’ education more

attainable.

Finally, any students who want to assure success must establish school as the top priority. Personally I

have watched some students slowly loosen up; I have seen a pattern of partying and a lack of motivation.

Many of the freshmen have no idea why they are in college, and their “eyes” often tell it all. This world is so

rich in distractions that it is hard to keep a strong focus, especially if one is just starting his or her academic

career. It is said that the first semester is often the most “unsuccessful” one. This certainly rings true for me.

I made mistakes in this regard and eventually learned that, to achieve success, school must always be placed

above other things.

In my college experience, I have observed and learned how to achieve success. I wish someone had told

me earlier the importance of having that smart classroom conduct, of fully utilizing the school resources, and

of making college my top priority. Then, my college beginnings would not have been so rocky and tough.

II. Write an outline (20 points)

Read the following passage carefully and compose a “topic outline” for it.

Smell

Smell, as a means of nonverbal communication, is important. Odor communicates not only when we are

face to face with another person, but also when the other person is not present. People from different

cultures may have different attitudes toward body odors.

Most people in the West respond negatively to what they consider bad odors such as body odor, breath

odor, or clothes that emit unpleasant smells such as sweat. They work hard to cover up their body odor and

view those with body odor as dirty and unsanitary. However, people usually are not comfortable in

discussing the topic, and generally will not tell another that his or her body odor is offensive. They will

simply avoid being close to the person and will end the conversation as quickly as possible.

Other cultures have quite different concepts of natural odors; they consider them as normal and believe

that it is an act of friendship to “breathe the breath” of the person with whom they converse and to feel their

presence by smelling. For example, Arabs don’t seem to feel comfortable unless they can smell each other.

When Arabs talk, they virtually envelop each other in their breath. Smelling the natural body odors of one’s

friend is desirable; denying him or her this privilege is to act ashamedly. In other cultures smell also plays an

important role. In Japan, young girls will often play a game involving the placing of five fragrances in tiny

boxes. The girl who identifies the most aromas wins the game. In Bali, Indonesia, when lovers greet one

another, they often breathe deeply in a kind of friendly sniffing. It is not uncommon for young lovers in the

Philippines to trade small pieces of clothing on parting so that the smell of the other person will evoke their

affection for each other.

Not knowing cultural variations in attitude toward smell can create uncertainty and even ill feeling. For

example, a medical doctor from Saudi Arabia once worked in a hospital in the southern United States.

Problems arose when patients refused to have the Saudi doctor examine them. Interviews with patients

revealed two problems: He “smelled bad” and he breathed on the patients. The doctor’s training had

apparently failed to include the difference between Arabic and American attitudes and practices relating to

smell. Clearly, encounters between people with such widely differing attitudes could lead to serious

miscommunication. To maintain harmonious intercultural business relationships, one should remember

these diverse attitudes toward smell.

Ⅰ. Supply the missing paragraph (20 points)

The following passage is incomplete with one body paragraph missing. Study the passage carefully

and write the missing paragraph in about 100 words. Make sure that your tone and diction are in unity

with the passage provided.

Different Types of Parents

It is universally true that all parents in the world love their children. However, as parents’ views of life

vary, they love their children in different ways. Generally speaking, in terms of how they treat their

children, parents fall into three basic types: autocratic, democratic, and permissive.

The autocratic parent’s word is the law. He always sets rules, expecting complete obedience from his

children. He assumes that he knows what is best for his children and that they will learn discipline and

respect for authority from his orders. He does not realize that he may not know best and that rules

without mercy may breed contempt for authority. If the child came home late from a party because a

major accident on the highway tied up traffic for miles, this parent would not allow the child to explain

his reasons for being late. The child would be immediately punished. This kind of parent probably has

good intentions, wanting his child to grow up “right,” but his approach to the task may lead to conflicts.

The democratic parent is not so strict. He is willing to discuss rules with his children and listen to their

side of an argument. If his child came home an hour late from a party, he would listen to the

explanation instead of punishing the child immediately. In general, the democratic parent lays down

fewer rules than his autocratic counterpart because he realizes children must learn certain things in life

on their own. He prefers to play the role of an advisor and is always available when his children need

help.

《英语写作》真题

Too few people with children are democratic parents, which is the best of the three types. Too much or

too little authority often breeds disrespect and resentment. A good parent should offer guidance and

advice; he should not try to rule his children or disregard his children completely.

Ⅱ. Write an outline (20 points)

Read the following passage carefully and compose a “topic outline” for it.

The Human Brain

For centuries, people wondered about how the human brain works. Researchers were particularly

concerned about its structure and functions. It was not long ago that scientists made the remarkable

discovery that our brains are divided into two halves—left brain and right brain, and that each half has

separate features and roles.

The left brain is said to be the logical brain. It is the left brain that we use to solve mathematical

problems and go think logically. For example, if you are asked how to make coffee, this is what happens.

Your left brain begins to work; it searches its files for information on coffee making. If it finds the files,

it begins relating what to do step by step. If it does not find any record, it says it does not know.

The right brain is often called the creative brain. It has the function of thinking creatively. This contains

all the artistic functions, including art and music appreciation. When you want to draw a picture or

compose a piece of music or write poetry, it is the right brain that is in operation. When you come

across a new situation in your life, your right brain gives ideas on how to tackle it.

To some people, the left brain is dominant and to others, the right brain is. Of people who are good in

mathematics and language expression—that is, putting into practice what they have learnt, we say that

they are more left-brained. They are not very sensitive and believe in doing everything only after

reasoning. They are very sharp at arguments. They are the type who will not believe in anything until

they see it. Right-brained people are more artistic and have a good sense of music appreciation. They

are also more sensitive and tend to be emotional. They are more open to new ideas and are willing to

accept radical positions.

Is the left brain better or the right brain? Both sides of the brain are equally important. In an ideal

situation, a person should be exactly equal in both sides of the brain. However, as in most things, the

ideal never happens. People are dominated by one or the other side of their brains. In order to

function effectively in the world, we must learn to use both sides of the brain. In many situations that

7 / 31

《英语写作》真题

we meet in the world, there will be requirements for both sides of the brain to work together as partners.

For example, when you want to write a story, which brain do you use? The answer is both brains. You

need the right brain to think of the ideas and you need the left side to arrange everything in a logical

sequence. You cannot go through life with only one side functioning.

It’s fundamentally important for people to know these interesting facts about the human brains.

However, many aspects concerning our brains still remain unknown. With scientists’ persistent efforts,

more secrets of the human brain will be revealed.

I. Supply the missing paragraph (20 points)

The following passage is incomplete with one body paragraph missing. Study the passage carefully and

write the missing paragraph in about 100 words. Make sure that your tone and diction are in unity with

the passage provided.

Benefits of Face-to-Face Communication

Face-to-face communication is the first basic communication method. In the era of information

technology, people are now faced with a myriad of communication options. Be it letters, emails, or telephone

conversations, none is more effective than face-to-face interaction, because it helps the speaker to convey a

complete message, obtain immediate feedback, and build trusting relationship.

______________________________________________________________________________

In addition, face-to-face communication provides immediate feedback. If the message is ambiguous, the

speaker can clarify it right away. The listener can raise questions if he feels confused. Hence, the speaker can

detect and prevent possible misunderstandings or confusion among the listeners. Since all the people

involved in the interactive process can easily see each other, their approval, interest, or disregard can easily

be deduced and dealt with. Renowned CEOs, like Bill Gates, attach much importance to face-to-face

communication and highly appreciate the timely responses of the staff at business meetings.

Lastly, face-to-face communication enhances the relationship between people. It’s difficult to build

rapport only over emails or through phone calls. It seems that people tend to depend less and less on

face-to-face talks to express their gratitude and appreciation, but this form of contact is extremely important

for establishing trusting relationship. As an office worker, what would you feel when your colleagues come

up to your desk and congratulate you on the great report you sent or the presentation you made recently? If

a team leader calls his team members to the office just to say “thanks” and pat their backs, the team will be

sure to take a liking to him immediately.

Even in the modern world full of electronic communication devices, face-to-face communication

remains the most powerful human interaction. Without face-to-face communication, information recipients

have to interpret an incomplete message, because much of the information gained in communication is

derived from non-verbal cues. They have no chance to question the speaker or clarify the information.

Moreover, they are unlikely to feel warmth from or build trust on the message deliverer. Therefore,

face-to-face interaction cannot be replaced by other forms of communication.

II. Write an outline (20 points)

Read the following passage carefully and compose a “topic outline” for it.

How to Lose Gracefully

Losing is a necessary part of life. Nobody likes to lose, yet in every even remotely competitive situation,

someone will. Perhaps it’s the next promotion at work, or the selection of a student union leader. Even small

things, like playing a card game, have an air of winning and losing to them. However, it’s what you do with

that failure that makes all the difference. Assuming one is the \"loser,\" all of these situations present a choice.

One can either be a sore loser or a graceful loser.

Losing gracefully is the first step to move forward and overcome the loss. In fact, graceful losers are

hardly impacted by the loss at all, because they know another opportunity awaits them. They congratulate

their opponent, embrace their failure and try to figure out where they went wrong. Graceful losers do not

take failure personally, but they do accept responsibility. They learn from the loss, and then apply what

they’ve learned so that next time they may win.

Sore losers are quite the opposite. Perhaps the biggest risk of being a sore loser is this loss of hope for

the future. Sore losers are stuck on the loss, and in so being, they may miss out on a new opportunity because

of their poor attitude. Sore losers get angry. They blame their loss on the opponent, not taking responsibility

for their own actions. Sore losers hold on to resentment, and may internalize their failure, leading to low

self-esteem or even depression.

Of course, making lemonade out of life’s lemons is not always easy. In fact, it can be downright hard.

But it is a principle worth living by. How can you lose gracefully, even when you really, really wanted to win?

Essentially, you need to realize that you never really lose.

In fact, once you learn how to release the feelings about losing—the anger, the embarrassment, and the

resentment—you will always feel successful. And then an amazing thing will happen. When you FEEL

successful, you will ACT successful, and then, sure enough, you will BE successful. As you let go of the

feelings that cause the sensation of loss, you discover that you never really lose anything.

The objects in your life are always changing, but what you are at your core is changeless. The more you

release on the fears and negativity about winning and losing, the easier it will be to accept things that do

happen. When you lose or win, you’ll then be able to do so gracefully.

By releasing your negative feelings, you allow the comings and goings of your life to simply happen as

they do. This gives great relief and also allows you to be present with and for the new opportunities that are

here every moment.

Everyone has failed at some point in his or her life. This is nothing exceptional. Even in adverse

12 / 31

situations, one should keep in mind the principle of losing gracefully. A graceful loser will turn into a

potential winner while a sore loser a bigger

failure.______________________________________________________________________________
