Many ancient architectures and traditional ways of living have been deserted. it seems that the traditional culture and craftsmanship will be replaced in this modern era.‎ ‎   The following reasons can account for the above phenomenon. Firstly, traditional technologies are always considered ineffective while the new sciences are always highly efficient, because modern science and technology facilitate both our daily and academic life a lot, with which we can save much money and time. Secondly, it is costly to protect the traditional culture, especially the maintenance and repair of the historical buildings.‎ In my opinion, although traditional culture is an ancient heritage, it couldn’t keep pace with the development of society. It is the tide of history that the traditional culture and technology will no doubt be eliminated in the end.‎ 二． 校园里的各种“星”比赛 20 ‎ ‎1.校园里也涌现出了各种选“星”比赛 ‎2.这种现象带来的问题 ‎3.你的看法 范文 ‎ My view on the “Campus Star” Contest ‎  At an age of character and individuality being encouraged and demonstrated, we see various “stars” pop up—singing stars, dancing stars, movie stars and sport stars. etc. Many schools even hold contests to choose their “Campus Stars”. Although these activities make our cultural life in campus more colorful and various, a lot of problems spring up at the same time.‎ ‎   First of all, these activities can result in the swelling of vanity in some students, making them become arrogant, or even feel superior to other students. Moreover, these activities can greatly distract the students from their study. In order to become a star, they will, without any doubt, spend a lot of time and energy on the preparation and competition. The focus of their academic life will be shifted, and even worse, they become too enthusiastic about extracurricular activities and hate the academic knowledge ad skills they need to grasp for their future development.‎ On the whole, I think these various “ Campus Star” contests should be controlled in the campus. After all, schools are different from any other social institutions.‎ ‎ Extracurricular activities should be encouraged, but they should be helpful to the students’ academic study and all-round development.‎ 三．幸福感  21 ‎ 话题： How to enhance the sense of happiness ‎1. 人们对于如何提升幸福感有不同看法 ‎2. 幸福感提升不仅包含物质层面，也指……‎ 范文 ‎   The sense of happiness is of great significance. As a vital factor of life, it brings us power, arouses our enthusiasm for loving life, and helps us to create a promising future. However, in contemporary China, it has become a trend for Chinese people to hold different views about happiness and the way to enhance it.‎ In addition to material basis, the sense of happiness also refers to several other aspects. Firstly, based on a recent survey, a majority of individuals admit that they are no longer content with being fed and clothed adequately, and their happiness depends more on their success in careers, friendship and love. Secondly, a great many people claim that health is the key to their sense of ‎ happiness. It is health that enables them to build up a solid foundation for anything significant.‎ As a student, I am convinced that never can money equal happiness. To enhance our sense of happiness, we should educate, advocate and encourage our friends and classmates to enrich their knowledge, broaden their horizons and cultivate their ability.‎ 四．文明旅游 22 ‎ 每年都有许多人外出旅游，一些人的不文明行为引起了社会的广泛关注。某英文报社正在举行以“文明旅游”为主题的讨论。假定你是李华，请你给报社写一封信，呼吁大家做文明游客。要点如下：  ‎ ‎1．尊重习俗；  2．不高声喧哗；   3．其他。‎ 注意：1．词数100左右； 2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯；‎ ‎      3．开头和结尾语已为你写好，不计入总词数。‎ Dear Editor,‎ I’ve read your discussion on how to behave properly while traveling. Every year, a great many holidaymakers go out for sightseeing and relaxation. While they are enjoying themselves, some of them behave rudely, which causes a ‎ big concern. How to be a civilized tourist has become a heated topic.‎ In my opinion, it is necessary to watch our manners. First, we must respect and follow local customs. Besides, we’d better not talk loudly in public places to avoid disturbance to others. Also, be aware that queue jumping is unacceptable in many countries. More importantly, if we travel abroad, we should bear in mind that we are representing our country, so we need to be cautious about how we act. Only in this way can we enjoy our trips and have beautiful memories as well.‎ ‎                                                    Yours truly   ‎ ‎                                                           Li Hua 练一练：‎ ‎(一) ‎ ‎23 某中学生英文报就“保护中国传统文化”为主题举行英语征文活动。你准备给该报投稿，稿件内容包括：‎ ‎1. 保护中国传统文化的重要性 ‎2. 列举1-2个你所知道的国家或当地政府文化保护的事例;‎ ‎3. 谈谈你对文化保护的建议。‎ 字数要求：120字。‎ ‎【参考范文】‎ Protect Traditional Chinese Culture The protection of national and folk culture is of great significance to Chinese cultural diversity and also to the harmonious development between local economic and social development. It is reported that the Guangdong government pays special attention to protecting Chaoju(潮剧)， a local drama born in Chaozhou in the eastern Guangdong province.‎ In my opinion, some measures should be taken to protect traditional culture effectively. To start with, we should make a law to regulate the society’s performance. Besides, we should draw more people’s attention to it, for the more they know about the importance of culture protection, the stronger support we can get from the public.‎ In a word, it is high time for us to treasure and develop our own valuable culture.‎ ‎（二） ‎ ‎24‎ ‎ 假如你叫李华，最近你的美国笔友Tony要来北京体验中国传统文化，请根据他的问题回复邮件，为他设计北京一日游活动，帮助他体验中国传统文化。请描述你们打算去的地方、具体的活动安排、以及这样安排的理由。‎ 提示词语：traditional Chinese culture, tea house, Peking Opera, paper cutting ‎【参考范文1】‎ Hi, Tony!‎ I’m glad that you will come to Beijing soon.

There is a name for each year, such as the dog, the monkey, the tiger or one of the twelve animals, and this year is the year of the horse.‎ Before the New Year’s Day, the Chinese people usually give their houses a good cleaning and on the last evening of the old year, all the members of a family will get together and have a big meal. People usually have jiaozi, fish, niangao and many other dishes. On the first or second day of the new year, people usually go to visit their relatives and friends and give some lucky money to children.‎ Among all the festivals, I like the Spring Festival best not only because I can enjoy delicious food, but also because I can relax myself by spending a few days with my family, my relatives and my friends.‎ Yours,‎ Li Hua ‎【参考范文3】‎ Hi! Tom,‎ I’m glad to hear that you are interested in traditional Chinese festivals. There are many traditional festivals in China, and my favorite is the Spring Festival. It falls on the first day of the Chinese lunar New Year. The Spring Festival is as important as Christmas in the U.S. and Chinese people have been celebrating it for many years.‎ To celebrate the Spring Festival, I usually stick the Chinese character “Fu” upside down on the door, which means happiness will come. Besides, I always prepare some red paper cutting to decorate my house because I believe the red color can bring our family good luck. On the eve of the festival, My family usually get together, having dinner and sharing some interesting experiences. Midnight is my favorite time because I can set off fireworks and admire them. Shining little stars coming out of fireworks create a warm atmosphere. Everyone is overjoyed as they say farewell to the old year and welcome the new year.‎ I really like the Spring Festival because it’s time for family reunions and the relationship between us becomes closer. Besides. What’s more, I can do various activities during the festival. I hope you can come to China to experience this colorful and meaningful festival.‎ Yours,‎ Li Hua
