A Boom in Adult Education 成人教育的繁荣
Every Tuesday and Friday evening sees Miss Li， my neighbor and a secretary in a company rush home after a hard day's work， gulp down her meals and then hurry out to catch the bus for her English class. Miss Li's case is not unique， and now more and more city adults spend their leisure time trying to improve themselves at school or college.
There are a number of reasons for people to go back for their education. Some people， like Miss Li， are doing it to acquire another degree or diploma to impress the society. To them more knowledge， or rather， more credentials means more opportunities for better jobs and quicker promotion.
Other people， especially those who are laid off or out of employment go to vocational school to prepare to return to the job market. They are eager for new skills so that they can be qualified for the jobs in retail trade， administration， education and other service categories to which they are strange because most of them were blue-collar workers in the factory.
There are also people who come to take such courses as Chinese traditional medicine， painting， calligraphy and photography. As their working weeks decline people begin to have time to fulfill their old dream of their heart's desire.
Out of necessity or out of interest， people go back to school for the common goal——to improve themselves， and this boom in adult education， in turn， helps to raise the intellectual standard of the whole country.
每星期二和星期五晚上看到小姐李，我的邻居和秘书在公司匆忙赶回家，一天的辛苦工作后，吞下她做的饭菜，然后赶紧出去赶公共汽车她英国人类。李小姐的情况并非独特，现在越来越多的城市成年人度过他们的业余时间，试图提高自己在学校或学院。
有很多理由可以为他们的教育。有些人，如李小姐，都在做这件事来获得另一个学位或文凭来给社会留下深刻印象。对他们更多的知识，或者说，更多的证书意味着更多的机会，更好的工作和更快的晋升。
其他人，特别是下岗或失业的人去职业学校，准备回到就业市场。他们都渴望新的技能，使他们能够有资格为的工作在零售业，政府，教育和其他服务类别，他们是奇怪的，因为他们中的大多数都是在工厂的蓝领工人。
也有人前来参加中国传统医学、绘画、书法、摄影等课程。当他们工作周的时候，人们开始有时间来满足他们对他们内心的渴望的梦想。
出于必要或是出于兴趣，人走回学校共同的目标——提高自己，这繁荣在成人教育，反过来，有助于提高整个国家的`知识水平。
Subject choice 学科选择
Good afternoon，everyone.
Welcome to our school! The topic I’m going to talk about is the choice between arts and science. As is known to all, students in China can’t study both arts and science. Therefore, a choice between them is bound to be made.
At the end of my first year in high school, I decided to study science rather than arts. And the reasons are as follows: The most important one is that I love science, which can show me the mysteries of nature and the universe. What’s more, I’m good at it. So, it is far easier for me to learn science than arts. Last but not least, I want to become a scientist in the future. It is science that will equip me with necessary abilities.
Now, years have passed, and my affection for science is much greater than before. I hold the view firmly that my choice is absolutely right.
Thanks!
大家下午好。
欢迎来到我们学校！我要谈论的话题是艺术与科学之间的选择。众所周知，中国学生不能学习艺术和科学。因此，两者之间的选择必然要被做。
在高中的第一年，我决定学习科学，而不是艺术。原因如下：最重要的是我热爱科学，它能给我看自然界和宇宙的奥秘。更甚的是，我很擅长。所以我比文科更容易学理科。最后但并非最不重要，我想将来成为一名科学家。这是科学，这将使我具备必要的能力。
现在，岁月已经过去了，我对科学的热爱比以前更大了。我认为我的选择是绝对正确的。
谢谢

Importance of Confidence 信心的重要性
Directions: In this part, you are to written an essay of about 200 words within 40 minutes. Your essay should be based on the information given in the outline below
Outline:
1. Importance of confidence
2. Reasons for lack of confidence
3. Necessity to build up confidence
The Importance of Confidence
Whatever one does, one should do it with confidence. If one has no confidence, there is little possibility that one can achieve anything when faced with hardships. This truth seems to be self-evident. In reality, however, we do see a lot of people who always complain that they lack the ability to do something or that their difficulties are too great to overcome. For some, this might be true. But for many others, this only shows that they have lost heart.
Why do some people often feel frustrated even though they are capable of doing something? I think there are two main reasons. In the first place, these people don't have a correct estimate of themselves. For example, ...... Secondly, there is another possibility that they exaggerate the difficulties. They can't see ..... They tend to ........
In my opinion, one should build up faith in oneself as long as he has a right attitude towards his own abilities. We should neither underestimate nor overestimate our abilities. As a proverb says, "Where there is a will, there is a way." With confidence we can certainly cope with any task we are faced with.
一个人不管做什么事，他应该充满信心地去做。 如果他没有信心，那他取得成功的可能性就很小，尤其是当他面临困难时。这个道理似乎明白无误。然而，在现实中我们确实看到许多人，他们总是抱怨说，他们缺 乏办事的能力，或者说，他们的困难大得克服不了。 对于有些人来说，这可能是对的。但是对许多其他人来说，这只能表明他们已经失去信心。
为什么有些人即使能够办得到的事也常常感到灰心呢?我认为有两点原因。首先，这些人对自己没有一个正确的估计。 例如：..... 其次，还有一种可能，就是他们夸大了困难。他们看不到..... 他们往往.........
依我看，一个人只要对自己的能力有正确的态度，就有可能对自己建立信心。我们既不应过高估计我们的能力，也不该低估我们的能力。常言道：“有志者，、事竟成”。只要有信心，我们一定能完成任何面临的任务。
